Dynamic Binding Through Virtual Functions in C++
A virtual function is used where we want to allow the derived class to replace the implementation of the same function in base class. The compiler always calls the derived class function when called with object of the derived class or an object of base class holding the address of the derived class object. The derived class can fully replace the definition of the base class virtual function or could partially replace by calling the base class function in the implementation of the derived class function.
A virtual function is declared by using the 'virtual' prefix to the declaration of that function. A call to virtual function is resolved at the run-time by analyzing the actual type of object that is calling the function. This is known as dynamic binding.if the object has one or more virtual functions, the compiler puts a hidden pointer in the object called a "virtual-pointer" or "v-pointer." This v-pointer points to a global table called the "virtual-table" or "v-table."
Compiler creates a virtual table for a class that has at-least one virtual function. For example, if class Vehicle has virtual functions for engine() and body(), there would be exactly one v-table associated with class Vehicle, even if there were a thousand Vehicle objects, and the v-pointer of each of those Vehicle objects would point to the Vehicle v-table. The v-table itself has pointers to each of the virtual functions in the class. For example, the Vehicle v-table would have two pointers: a pointer to Vehicle::engine() and a pointer to Vehicle::body().
Consider the following example without virtual functions :
$ ./virtual
could be metallic or non-metallic body
could be metallic or non-metallic body
Clearly the output indicates that it was not at all expected.
Now lets try the concept of virtual functions :
Lets see the output :
$ ./virtual
metallic body
non-metallic body
Whola!!!!!, it worked as expected.
Going a bit deeper
Now, once we are clear with the usage aspect of virtual functions. Lets dig a bit deeper and see what happens inside :
Suppose class Base has 5 virtual functions: virt0() to virt4().
class Base {
//Pseudo code
class Base {
Base::Base(/* Some params*/)
FuncPtr Der::__vtable[5] = {
Finally, let's see how the compiler implements a call to a virtual function:
// Your original C++ code
Hence, in this way the program can bind the function call dynamically to the correct function.
To Conclude, the concept of virtual function act as one of the pillars of the OOPs concept of polymorphism.
Re: Dynamic Binding Through Virtual Functions in C++
The above note gives the information about the virtual functions.The program written is give more idea about the virtual functions.
Re: Dynamic Binding Through Virtual Functions in C++
Can you explain pictorially how the _vptr looks like in scenario below(in case of multiple inheritance). Or at-least the _vptr for Derieve class
class Base

Norman, 55, wed Australian interior decorator Kirsten Kutner, 41, before a small group of family and friends. His son Gregory, Jr. was best man.
Speaking to Australia's New Idea magazine, Norman said that everyone was barefoot and dressed in white for the private nuptials.
"Kirsten walked down the aisle on her own – we were all waiting for her," Norman said. "To me, she is the most beautiful woman in the world. She looked stunning."
Kutner was raised in Sydney, but has moved to Jupiter Island, Fla., with her two children Kaya, 6, and Kelly, 3, who served as flower girls. The bride described the wedding as small but memorable.
"We wanted something very intimate with just us and the family," she told the magazine. "It was very relaxed – a beautiful family reunion."
Norman was divorced in 2006 from wife Laura Andrassy after 25 years of marriage. Two years later, in a $2 million Bahamian beachfront ceremony, the golfing great married Evert. The union lasted only 18 months.
Norman and Kutner, who is divorced from a Switzerland-based finance executive, have been friends for many years. They recently reunited last year while Norman was overseas developing a golf course.
"Kirsten is very much in love with Greg and was quite excited about having such a romantic and beautiful island wedding with their families and closest friends," a source tells PEOPLE.

Italian Navy and Air Force Elite Units and Special Forces 1940-45by Mark Stacey Piero Crociani
This volume assesses the formidable Special Forces fielded by Italy's navy and air force in World War II. Italian Navy Special Forces were particularly active and respected in the Mediterranean, where 10th Motor-Torpedo Boat Flotilla used frogmen, 'two-man torpedoes' and explosive ram-boats. The Italian Air Force formed a special commando unit, ADRA, before the 1943 surrender; it was tasked with attacking Allied airfields and communications in North Africa. Men from ADRA and Army paratroopers formed the new 'Folgore' Regiment, which also continued to fight alongside German forces until 1945. In both cases, the pro-Allied Italian forces also formed 'mirror' units to fight alongside US and British forces, including the Recce Squadron 'F'. Featuring rare photographs and specially commissioned artwork, this book tells the story of the little-known elite forces fielded by Italy's navy and air force in World War II, some of whose successors remain in service with today's Italian armed forces.
Italian Soldier in North Africa 1941-43by Steve Noon Piero Crociani
Focusing on the Italian Army in North Africa during World War II, which fought alongside the Afrikakorps under Rommel versus Montgomery and Patton, this title combines with the previous Warrior series books on the subject (and other Osprey titles) to complete the picture of the War in the Desert. Despite the attention paid to the Afrikakorps over the years, it was the numerically far superior forces of the Italian Army that held the line and formed the bulk of the fighting power available to the Axis powers during the War in the Desert from 1941 through to 1943. Their performance has been unfairly criticized over the years - the best units of the Italian Army were equal to those of the British and Germans - but they suffered from a lack of mobility and poor equipment that made it impossible for them to meet mobile British forces on anywhere near equal terms. Despite this, the Italian Army went through many changes through the period, with the introduction of a variety of elite units - armoured, mechanised and parachute divisions that did much to restore the fighting reputation of the Italian soldier in the Desert War. Their German allies belatedly acknowledged this with the redesignation of Panzerarmee Afrika as 1st Italian Army in February 1943. This title details recruitment, organisation and experience of the Italian forces in this theatre, casting new light on a force whose fighting power and capabilities have been unfairly ignored and maligned for too long.

Strongly agree
Offensive asst line coach w/ seattle 2008...atleast he has people around him to teach the fundamentals!
Olsen is going nowhere!! He cant, I have his jersey and I dont want to add his jersey to the "back of the closet" list (Benson, Muhammad, M. Brown, T. Jones) Im just going to get a McCaskey jersey,...

Diddy ft. Mario Winans - Through The Pain (She Told Me)
Yo, Diddy is a hit machine. I'd love to rag on him because he's certainly successful, smug and rich enough to take the abuse, but the truth is he keeps producing songs that are tight, smart and infectious. Through The Pain (She Told Me) with help by Mario Winans (as singer and co-producer), is the sign of a mature artist who knows how to control his lyrics and restrain his melodies. True: he could develop his wordplay more and bring more depth to this piece. But quite honestly, Diddy, the consummate professional, knows possibly better than anyone else, that Through the Pain doesn't need swagger and violence to hit you right in the stomach. This song is the strangest of Hip-Hop adjectives: beautiful.

Well, I've been working my happiness experiments for more than a year, and I've come a long way.
What have I learned?
Both a lot and nothing at all. Some experiments were incredibly effective, others were completely ineffective – which was an education in itself.
Now that I'm on my 38th happiness experiment, which ones have stuck out for me? Well, here are a few that were particularly memorable.
The Health Benefits of White Wine on Sleep: Sometimes, you unintentionally discover something awesome. This experiment was inspired by a study I read that talked about red wine improving sleep. I decided to try white wine since I prefer it, and the results were still effective. Now, I know that the occasional glass of wine at night will help me sleep incredibly well.
Clutter Busting: I've always heard that a cleaner house makes for happier people, and that physical clutter weighs down on your energy. I didn't believe it until I started really clearing out my own clutter. Once I started moving out clutter I found that I couldn't wait to keep cleaning!
Eating Paleo: This was an incredibly effective experiment, but also the first experiment that I consider myself to have failed on. When I read up on the timeline for going on the paleo diet aferwards, I found out that my discomforts were not uncommon for people going onto the paleo diet. I might go and try this again in 2013 – I can't deny how much weight I lost in the first few days, but the stress and discomfort were significant. Maybe I should take a long holiday so I don't have to go through carb withdrawal at work!
And the most effective experiment of all, the Happy Thoughts List: I read an article about adding gratitude to your life and how it can make you a happier person. I didn't walk into the experiment thinking it would work. Now it's one of the few experiments I stick with and still make part of my regular life.
I've learned a lot in this last year. I hope by my documenting my experiments, you've had the chance to learn from my experiences as well. Hopefully I've given you a few good ideas and saved you from making many of my mistakes.

Even in recession, the health and beauty market is buoyant. But if Francesco want to expand and take on the major players, Jacqui needs to go undercover to find out where things are going wrong. But she's left reeling when she's turned away by staff who don't feel trained to wash and dry Afro-Caribbean hair. She also unearths empty salons, complacent stylists, ageing franchisees and an older clientele, and meets a desperate owner dealing with visits from debt collectors. It's not all bad though, as she's inspired by a young, visionary stylist, and moved by a franchisee passionate about his NHS work crafting wigs for patients. By the time she returns to Head Office Jacqui knows there's a lot of work needed if Francesco Group is to take on the industry leaders.

2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS 4dr Sedan (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
Well it's like this..purchased car in 2006 brand new. Had fair credit at the time so being a unknowledgable I went for the high int rate. Had some set backs, but any about the car. Excellent when I first purchased. Didn't start having major problems until 110,000 miles. Took it to the dealership and sears only to be serviced. I had a transmission flush at 75,000 miles, a fuel thing for the recall, a steering issue for the recall, belt replaced, 3 rotors changed. And a long list of other things done as time went own. Now have 174,500 miles and the engine didn't pass the compression check and now they say I need a new engine at the dealership and it cost 3,100 dollars. I still owe. :(
The heat work excellent.
I wish it had the life time of a Honda or Toyota. Especially if your financing with fair credit. It should work way beyond the life of a loan. I had a chevy cobalt 2006 2.2 sedan. They should definitely look into better quality of the cars nowadays instead of the money. This just make you want to go for quality imports instead. See it wasn't really a money issue when I purchase the car, I thought I was getting quality. Now I feel like a sucker all over again. I even kept up the service on everything. Had I known this would happen I wouldn't have spent so much in servicing the car. They had the nerve to say I didn't keep it serviced. WOW!!!!
2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS 4dr Sedan (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
I bought my cobalt new and i now have 145,783 miles on it and it has never once let me down and stranded on the road. Not even so much as a dead battery, and yeah the battery i have in it is the one from the factory! The only work ive had done to it is ive had the electric power steering replaced from the recall as it just randomly stopped working while i was driving. But besides regular oil changes and maintence such as alignments and such ive never had one thing wrong and would reccomend it to anyone! And Ive worked at various car lots so Ive driven just about every car and id still reccomend this car over any other comperable car foreign or domestic. This has made me a chevy guy for life!
It could have better acceleration.
2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS 4dr Sedan (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
I bought this car from an awesome man named Vince from car City on E. 14th street Des Moines, Iowa around April of 2012. I was originally looking for a ford focus with a 5 speed manual transmission but saw the color on this (pepsi blue) and caught my eye. Only had one problem with this car: air conditioner pulley lost some mounting screws and a belt popped off. Losing a screw is probably due to my moderate off roading at Jester Park and a belt popping off just happens sometimes but in this case was caused by the AC pulley shifting in position due to lack of mounting hardware. Just bad luck, really. I love it though. no features like power windows/ locks, mirrors, and is a 5 speed. I love it!
5 speed manual is a little sporty, AC is amazing, no problems, simple, reliable, color, 33 MPG, cheap car, cheap tax, title, license, insurance, plates, and to maintain.
None, unlike Honda...this car comes with no features if you pay less for it, I like how you have the OPTION to get the bells and whistles not being forced to if you want the car. I do not want all those features and I do not want to pay for all that, I just need a cheap car that is good on gas. I love American Cars!
2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS 4dr Sedan (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
I recently purchased my used Chevy Cobalt in December. The first time my door got stuck I thought it was my fault because the next day the doors open. Earlier this week my driver's side door got stuck again my dad went out and opened it with no problem. But again the next day the door was stuck again and my dad and I could not get it open. I was with some friends last night and both doors were stuck we both literally had to climb out of the window to get out. This is my the first car that I've ever bought. I've only had this car for a short time and I really need it to get back and forth from work. Gm really needs to do something about this problem because
Please General Motors please recall the doors on the Chevy Cobalt!
2006 Chevrolet Cobalt LS 4dr Sedan (2.2L 4cyl 5M)
I recently hit 200,000 miles on my 2006 Chevy Cobalt. The only thing I have had done to this vehicle is change the oil and tires. This is the best vehicle I have owned and I will continue to buy Chevrolet.

I have a very odd problem.
And I know it's odd because my father is a very successful programmer and even he got confused. You might get confused as well.
I have a big problem, one that has been affecting me and my friend for years now. We met online and we've been friends for 8 years now. We chat a lot and send each other all kind of things and we write stories together. Things got weird around 3-4 years ago.
We send drawings of characters we want to use in our stories to one another and about 3-4 years ago, the links I sent or the paragraph of a story that I sent to her showed up as a blank space. We were using MSN messenger. When this problem began we tried many ways to get around it. We used online messengers, we tried different ones like AIM and Yahoo!, but the problem did not stop.
The problem continued to get far worse than we imagined. Not only was it blanking but sometimes the messages just didn't show up to her (note: it is MOSTLY what I send that doesn't show/blanks but it has happened the other way around a few odd times).
This summer I went to another country, another continent entirely, to visit my family, and we tried to write a story together there. Again, the problem occurred even though I used a different computer in a different country.
My father, who had been assisting me in trying to figure out the problem, assured me it was on her part and that it was her internet company. If you have a better answer, I would be interested in hearing.
But my problem got worse.
Many months ago, the Photobucket account where I put my characters, deleted all the images inside of it. The images began disappearing in a matter of hours from my account until it was empty. So I made a new account and added new characters. Two days ago it happened again, where the characters disappeared from this NEW account.
So I decided to make a new one yesterday. And again they disappeared. I've switched to tinypic as a host, but I am expecting the same result. I just want to know, because I'm frustrated, why is this happening?
I don't think anyone can answer my question, but I might as well give it a try. I am desperate for answers.
Thank you.
Re: I have a very odd problem.
the messenger problem might be it disallows huge copy and paste ad maybe some links (to prevent spam)
check the spam filter in the options.
as for the files disappearing...definitely the host. Photobucket and tinypic are free hosts.
you must use a PAID host if you expect files to be stored permanently (and backed up).
Re: I have a very odd problem.
Another explanation for the messenger problem might be the format you write it in. For example, if your using Microsoft Word and you copy and paste directly into MSN Messenger then certain things like WordArt won't transfer correctly because the formatting is very particular to the Microsoft Office suite. So I would recommend taking a look at all the software that both parties use to determine any incompatibilities. As per the files disappearing, I completely agree with Toddie. It might be a problem particular to your host.
Re: I have a very odd problem.
i do believe if there was a format issue with the data it would show up client side before sending but i get what you mean. like trying to read UFT-8 format after opening in ANSI
you get unrecognized characters. still visible though, just a square.
if we were there it would be much easier to diagnose since we could recreate the problem.
have you tried other free mesengers besides msn? (aim, yahoo, trillian, icq)
Re: I have a very odd problem.
And yes, we've tried AIM, Yahoo, etc. And we also tried online private chartrooms. For the most part, they seem to solve the problem but the blanking/not showing will eventually occur on there as well. We don't like private chats anyways, so we rarely use them.
Re: I have a very odd problem.
well sometimes it is a certain combination of words that gives errors to certain applications. here is just one of many examples.
open a new text file
type this into it
now open the file and see what is there.
you will be surprised to find that it is not what you saved.
this seems to be the most likely scenario to what is happening to you, after reviewing the facts. if you have doublechecked to make sure the words are not missing BEFORE hitting send, then perhaps can you provide a sample of some text that is giving you the problems.
this way we can recreate the problem and troubleshoot it then we can address a solution more readily and easily.
EDIT: you said you provided "links" to your friend.
like i said sometimes links are filtered. but this is happening with other things as well. it sounds to me like its more than one problem. have you ruled out the filters? that could correct SOME of the problems you are experiencing.
final thought. try refreshing (log off log on) when this occurs.
Re: I have a very odd problem.
Either way, no this is not what is happening to me. The problem is much more than just the text jumbling up or not. I know for sure that the text is sent, my father has back-checked and the text is definitely sent on our end but apparently not received on hers.
Right now, our number one suspicion for this problem is her internet company, which she had since the start of our 'problem'.
Also, if you want an example, I'm afraid almost anything will do if it concerns the story. Including character names, something as simple as Bob, or Luke or whatever. If it concerns the story it will, on most occasions, NOT go through.
So all in all, what we figure right now is that the main culprit is her internet company. But she hasn't had the chance to switch yet.
But if it's not, I'm afraid I'll go crazy.
Re: I have a very odd problem.
its not bush hid the fact. its bush hid the facts
i am showing you that some things you type give you an error no matter what.
if you save that all you get is squares in the text file.
how many years has this been going on and you have not tried this yet?
also has your friend contacted their isp?
finally, since it is determined to be on your friends end there is nothing we can do to help you with someone elses problem. we are stuck until your friend tries a new computer, new isp or contacts their current isp and asks questions.
until then we cannot help you (even if you are crazy).
Re: I have a very odd problem.
So let's just drop that.
And about ISP, I'm not sure if she has contacted them. But I'll check with her later.
I only posted this question to see if someone might have other answers than the ones I've come across, that's all.
Re: I have a very odd problem.
sure no problem buddy.
did you save and close the file then re-open it?
perhaps it is something they fixed with newer versions of notepad, it works on my version.
version 5.1 (build 260.xpsp_sp2_gdr.061219-0316 : service pack 2)
after searching on google i found this
you must be on windows vista (or newer) and that is why it is not working for you.
we are willing to help with questions but what I am trying to tell you is you are not providing enough information for us to help you.
if your friend is unable to use another computer (for whatever reason it does not matter if you explain why because this is the internet and its anonymous so privacy should not be a concern) because they are in a group home or house arrest or whatever may be the case... then you will just have to wait until you hear back from your friend about what their isp told them after contacting them.
until then we have given you several suggestions. we were not up to speed on all of the facts at hand until now. after being debriefed fully with the facts you present, it comes to a realization that we cannot continue without more information, you will have to post again later.

Telormedix has joined the collaborative research program targeting novel mechanisms of resolution in inflammation called TIMER. The project is funded with €3 million (roughly $3.95 million) from the EU to establish a robust collaboration with Brazil.
TIMER comprises a team of European universities and research institutions as well as Brazilian groups. Industry partners include Merck Serono and now Telormedix, which will promote translational research. Telormedix' contribution to the project, coordinated by Alcide Barberis, head of research and collaborations, will draw on its expertise in the field of toll-like receptors (TLRs) modulators.
Telormedix' lead product, TMX-101, recently entered a Phase I/II trial for the treatment of nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). In addition, Telormedix is developing two TLR7-targeted molecules, TMX-201 and TMX-202, as a vaccine adjuvant. One of these molecules, TMX-202, has recently been selected for preclinical study for the topical treatment of skin cancers and other indications. Telormedix also has an additional programm focused on autoimmune disorders called TMX-30X.
TIMER was launched on January 1 to accelerate the development of novel strategies to fight inflammation. Scientists from nine research partners in four European countries and three research partners in Brazil are working together.
"This is a unique opportunity for European scientists to strengthen ties with Brazilian colleagues addressing central issues related to inflammation, of broad potential in immune-based pathologies," says Alberto Mantovani, coordinator of TIMER and director of the Istituto Clinico Humanitas in Milan. "The availability of natural resources, models of diseases, original paradigms, and molecular approaches will be conducive to synergistic interactions."

Julie Stipich wears her "Obama '08" T-shirt four or five times a week. The garment, the Lake County woman found, is a magnet for questions. Not about politics, either. People want shopping information.
Official campaign gear for Barack Obama runs in very short supply these days. Want a shirt? Or a knit winter hat? Maybe a yard sign?
Be prepared to wait.
The Obama Store, the presidential candidate's Internet sales site, simply can't meet current demand.
A red-lettered apology appears on the Web page: "Please note due to our recent overwhelming number of orders, some items might be delayed in shipping by two-three weeks."
For whatever reason, it's an issue that's isolated to Obama.
Campaign store pages for Hillary Rodham Clinton, his Democratic rival, and Republicans John McCain and Mike Huckabee noted no distribution concerns.
Items imprinted with Obama's name or face seem to be dominating election-related merchandise sales, according to CafePress.com, a popular online bazaar. Obamania overran the field in a recent week and claimed nearly 60 percent of the presidential market.
Since Nov. 4, when CafePress started its tracking, Obama represents 28 percent of candidate sales on the site. Huckabee falls second with 22 percent, and Clinton third with 19 percent.
CafePress equates the numbers to people "voting with their wallet." A word of caution, though: The non-campaign of Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert ranks fifth in sales. That puts him behind Ron Paul and just ahead of McCain, who's currently in the lead for the Republican nomination.
Given that, the numbers might not be a perfect indicator of who's likely to become the next White House resident.
But don't dismiss the results, either, said James Glaser, a political behavior expert and professor at Tufts University in Boston. The data, he said, conveys meaningful information.
"It's a measure of intensity," Glaser said. "It's not just that a lot of people like Obama. It's that they like him a lot."
And they'll go to great lengths to get his stuff.
Earlier this month, a Boston man launched ObamaCycle.com to distribute used campaign materials from one state to another during the election cycle. In the first 10 days, the site attracted more than 60,000 visitors, said the project's founder, Furqan Nazeeri.
Last week, dozens of Ohioans jumped on the site desperately seeking yard signs, pins and bumper stickers as the state's March 4 primary draws closer. "Neeeeeeed badges and lapel pins asap in Cleveland, OH," read one plea posted Friday afternoon.
Brad Kenney of Lakewood, who's still waiting on an order placed with Obama's campaign last month, said he sent out a request looking for "anything with an Obama logo that can be stuck on something."
So far, he's received three packages -- including one filled with bumper stickers promoting the Massachusetts primary.
"They'll go to use," Kenney said. "We'll take whatever we can get our hands on. There's no shortage of people willing to go to bat for Obama. It's just a matter of getting them his gear so they can show it."

Monica Lewinsky: At 40, I Still Can't Escape Clintons' Shadow
The Monica Lewinsky scandal nearly drove Bill Clinton from office and to this day remains a wildcard in the presidential ambitions of Hillary Clinton.
Ms. Lewinsky, the onetime intern at the center of the scandal, suggests in a new article in Vanity Fair magazine she has taken deliberate steps over the years that protected the Clintons' political fortunes. In return, she says she got nothing from the Clintons – no money and no consideration. She said she believes the couple is oblivious to the myriad ways in which the affair upended her own life.
Ms. Lewinsky broke a decade-long silence on one of the most sensational scandals in American political history in a Vanity Fair article posted online Thursday. In the piece, she said she is "troubled" by Mrs. Clinton's impulse to rationalize Mr. Clinton's behavior while blaming herself and depicting Ms. Lewinsky as unstable. (Excerpts from the interview were published earlier this week.)
In one passage, Ms. Lewinsky cites the diaries kept by Diane Blair, a close confidante of Mrs. Clinton who chronicled her private reactions to the affair in the late 1990s. An entry from September 1998 has Mrs. Clinton describing the former White House intern as a "narcissistic loony tune." At other points, Mrs. Clinton catalogs the stresses on her husband that might have explained his behavior: the death of his mother and the suicide of the couple's mutual friend, Vince Foster, for example. (See the Blair memo, page 1and page 2.)
Ms. Lewinsky writes of Mrs. Clinton: "She may have faulted her husband for being inappropriate, but I find her impulse to blame the Woman – not only me, but herself – troubling. And all too familiar; with every marital indiscretion that finds its way into the public sphere – many of which involve male politicians – it always seems like the woman conveniently takes the fall.

"Sure, the Anthony Weiners and Eliot Spitzers do what they need to do to look humiliated on cable news. They bow out of public life for a while, but they inevitably return, having put it all behind them. The women in these imbroglios return to lives that are not so easily repaired."
In her own case, she says she was made a "scapegoat in order to protect his [Bill Clinton's] powerful position."
For all that, Ms. Lewinsky said she has gone out of her way to minimize problems for the Clintons.
She disputes the idea she's a narcissist. Testifying to her own character, she describes the moment in January 1998 when independent counsel Ken Starr's prosecutors scooped her up in a northern Virginia shopping mall and threatened her with jail time unless she cooperated with their investigation of the Clinton White House. She was 24 at the time. They offered her immunity in exchange for wearing a wire in in possible conversations with Mr. Clinton and his confidantes.
She refused.
That, she says, would have been an unforgivable "betrayal."
"That I couldn't do," she writes. "Courageous or foolish, maybe, but narcissistic and loony?"
In some ways, she says she has organized her life around Mrs. Clinton's political aspirations.
She says she remained "virtually reclusive" in 2008, when Mrs. Clinton ran unsuccessfully for president. "Inundated with press requests," she kept silent, she writes.
Even with this article, she helped defuse an allegation made in February by Sen. Rand Paul (R., Ky.). Mr. Paul, a potential Republican candidate for president in 2016, has described Mr. Clinton as a "sexual predator" who took advantage of Ms. Lewinsky.
"Sure, my boss took advantage of me," she writes, "but I will always remain firm on this point: it was a consensual relationship. Any 'abuse' came in the aftermath, when I was made a scapegoat in order to protect his powerful position."
Now 40 years old, Ms. Lewinsky has stirred questions about why she is coming forward now.
She says she wants to help other victims of internet humiliation cope with the ordeal, with a view toward giving "a purpose to my past."
The story laid out in Vanity Fair is a sad one. Ms. Lewinsky's notoriety has made it tough for her to find jobs.
Employers cited her "history" in telling her she wasn't "quite right for the position." Others seemed interested in exploiting her notoriety, telling her she would be required to come to company events that the press would attend.
She goes out on dates, but the paparazzi pose problems. She once left a Yankees game early after learning that her date was married. Even though he was in what she called a "green-card marriage," she "freaked that we could be photographed together and someone might call the gossip rags.
"I've become adept at figuring out when men are interested in me for the wrong reason," she writes.
It's unclear where Ms. Lewinsky goes from here. But the article's tone suggests she wants a more normal life that doesn't require her to go into hiding when and if Mrs. Clinton runs for president.
She asks, "[S]hould I put my life on hold for another 8 to 10 years?"

Summerville Country Club hosted the 2013 Cuthbert Classic Oct. 27.
The annual golf tournament is held each year in memory of June Cuthbert and Tommy Cuthbert, two beloved friends of the club who gave so much to the community and the game of golf. The tournament uses a two-man, captain's choice format and offers prizes for both a "June Cuthbert" Low Net Division and a "Tommy Cuthbert" Low Gross Division.
"We want to thank all the players and hole sponsors for supporting this event," club golf pro Bray Blanton said. "More than $3,500 was raised to benefit the Dorchester Free School Board's Tommy Cuthbert Scholarship Fund which is awarded annually to a deserving high school graduate."
The winners of the low gross "Tommy Cuthbert" division were Mike Cobb and Andy Balao, who shot a low round of 57. Jess Cuthbert and Jed McCluen came in at 60 to claim runner-up honors. Trailing in the division were Marc Horne and Tim Cone (60); David Bordiuk and Robert Lindley (61); Gary Brewer and Jason Boutin (61); Mark Shaughnessy and Mike Moseley (62); Ce Buddin and Robbie Pritchard (62); and David Connor and Bob Merryman (62).
The team of Cory Deering and David Tackett won the low net "June Cuthbert" division while the team of Barry Connor and Billy Long claimed runner-up honors. Rounding out the Top 8 for that division were the teams of John Bowers and Bob Flowers; Allen Traylor and Jeff Traylor; Patrick Pye and Bob Baker; Jim Boyle and Randy Henderson; Walter Cuthbert and Shaun Thomas; and Bufort Blanton and Stephen Chellis.

GFCS Consultation Reviews Status of Climate Services in the Pacific
4 April 2014: The Regional Consultation on Climate Services for Pacific Small Island States and Related Meetings met with the aim of improving weather and climate services in small island developing States (SIDS) and ensuring that implementation of the Global Framework for Climate Services (GFCS) meets their needs.
The meeting, held from 31 March to 4 April in Rarotongo, the Cook Islands, brought together over 60 experts from National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs), regional organizations and research institutions, as well as policymakers, and experts on agriculture and food security, water, health and disaster risk reduction (DRR). The first three days focused on the GFCS consultation, while the last two addressed ongoing Pacific regional meteorological projects and initiatives.
During the meeting, GFCS Office Director Felipe Lucio said that "climate services make it possible to incorporate science-based climate information and prediction into planning and policy to achieve real benefits for society."
Participants at the consultation, inter alia: reviewed existing regional climate services and assessed specific needs in the initial four priority areas (agriculture and food security, water, health, and DRR) at the regional, national and local levels; strengthened dialogue between providers and users to ensure climate services are accessible and relevant; identified regional capacity building needs, in terms of mandates, infrastructure and human resources, and the necessary institutional arrangements to implement the GFCS in the Pacific region; recommended better arrangements for national observation networks, enhanced research and analysis of national and local climate issues; discussed linkages of existing programmes to strengthen regional climate services in the region; and further developed the document 'Partnership for Weather and Climate Services in SIDs' to be presented at the Third International Conference on SIDS in September 2014.
The consultation, sponsored by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the Secretariat of the Pacific Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) and other key partners, was one of a number of initiatives being undertaken within the framework of the GFCS to increase climate resilience, and in preparation for the Third International Conference on SIDS in September 2014.
The WMO-led GFCS focuses on user-driven climate services, such as seasonal forecasts, and supports effective climate risk management and adaptation to climate variability and change. [Consultation Website] [WMO Press Release] [SPREP Press Release]

There has a lot been said since I last checked so I haven't been keeping up, but I do think that this nonsense about REAL, PHYSICAL things is nonsense. Money is not all real, physical things.. Not unless you think a credit card swipe is somehow valuable. All credit is a transfer of, not funds, but credit it. It's really just a mark in a ledger. It is only when the bank goes to the other bank that it is fulfilled. It's virtually a credit.

It strikes me as odd for someone who is so anti-gold standard to make claims like this which are so pro-gold standard it hurts.

Second, value is subjective (you can think Menger and the Austrians who found this concept in which all modern day economics is built on except socialists). NOTHING IS INTRINSICALLY VALUABLE. It seems like this is something we all agree on. Given that money is not necessarily a physical thing, and that value is subjective, we can see how bitcoin could be considered money if valued by enough people.

Now that we've established that, we should look at why bitcoin is not widely accepted which I mentioned before:
 1. People don't know about it. Economists and computer geeks, but if you were to ask the average, say, psychology student whom has not interest in politics whatsoever (and there are plenty) or virtually anyone else, they most likely wouldn't know about it.. this begs the question: even if they did know about it, would they want it?
 2. They might. The underlying point of me posting this was to show that competing currencies could be a thing. They could be a thing that work very well (as they have historically.. look up Richard Timberlake, Lawrence White, and George Selgin). We can't say for sure if bitcoins would be a very valuable thing, but we do know that it's getting very popular.. this begs the question, if it's so popular, why aren't businesses buying it?
 3. This can be answered mostly by the fact that the legality of it is iffy at best. It can also be answered that people trust the backing of a government (whom obviously have a pretty poor track record, but people don't know better).

So, there's no reason to think that bitcoins can't be money. I am not saying they are widely accepted. I am not saying if they were legal that they even would be widely accepted. I am saying that competing currencies can, and should, be a thing to keep the dollar honest.

 Yes, that's true, Stephen... but if someone in, say, Germany, wants to buy what you're selling, they will pay you via PayPal in DeutschMarks, which Paypal will CONVERT to $USD. Or if you want to buy something for your VW from someone in Germa ny, they are likely selling in DM, and you will pay in $USD, but THEY will receive DM from PayPal. Similarly, in theory, PayPal could start accepting Bitcoins and then convert them to $USD or whatever currency, or just bank them like you do with your local currency.

By Michel Nischan with Mary Goodbody
For people who crave flavor with less fat, Nischan, who developed the I menu at the gourmet health-food restaurant Heartbeat in New York City, provides plenty of engaging new ideas, though these recipes are far from simple. Nischan relies on unusual starchy bases like rutabaga juice to thicken sauces. And high-end ingredients like sashimi-grade fluke and truffles will definitely take weight off your wallet. This isn't food to whip up on a weeknight, but it's nice to find a top chef thinking beyond the butter dish.

First Peace soccer team kicks-off
Published 30/10/2012 | 12:48
SLIGO'S FIRST Peace football team took to the field at the Showgrounds as part of the Sligo Rovers League. The match between STSG United and The Belfry team was the kick-off to the Sligo Travellers Peace Project, which aims, amongst other things, to bring Travellers and other marginalized groups into the main field of Sligo sporting life.
The Traveller PEACE Project is funded by the PEACE lll Programme through the European Union's European Regional Development Fund managed for the Special EU programmes Body by Sligo County Council on behalf of Sligo Peace and Reconciliation Partnership Committee. The team launch was opened by Rovers star Alan Keane, who gave words of support and encouragement to the teams and wished them the best in Sligo Rovers' current tournament.
Pat Hegarty, chair of the local Traveller Support Group, said that he was thrilled the team had achieved a high level of performance under the steady guidance of Charlie Ward and already had membership from different communities.
'Sport is just one part of the schedule. We have a range of events and activities with women, men and youth, both locally and on a cross-border basis,' explained Pat. 'With teamwork, we can expand our tolerance, trust and understanding - all of this is within our reach, and people are at the heart of this programme,' he added.
The match ended in a win for Belfry with high standard play all around. STSG United will continue to meet other teams in the tournament on a weekly basis.

Hey Peeps
If all is true and the Wii U still has nunchuck and wiimote support (Hopefully they re-work them)Then Nintendo couldnt do any better at the moment!!
Im expecting no nonsense as per usual from Ninty... Seriously the graphics were my only concern for the original wii BUT that has not stopped me from loving every second i played on the glorious little white box (which to me was a cross between a gamecube and PS2 with awesome controls).
Wii U looks Better than PS3 MEGA BONUS, Likely Better Controls, Compact and not dominating the area round the TV...Looking forward to it!

This early afternoon Nico was getting restless, it had been raining (more like pouring) all morning, so I figured ok quick craft, suncatchers! So I got the coffee filters and the Rainbow Art Kit again and I got deserted! When getting the stuff upstairs in the "craft room", he saw the bin of cloud dough and refused to come down without it.
So I set him up on his little table (about a meter from me) and set myself up on the dining room table for the rainbow painting. I figured he would come over eventually when he saw what I was doing. I was right, all I had time to do was 5 filters and he popped in.
Here is the kit (put water where the 2 rectangular sponges are).
I reminded him of how it worked and took photos this time so you all can see better, since my explanation in the rainbow painting surprise was a little vague.
A few of his filters dried A few of my filters dried
Once they were dried, during nap time, I had a little fun and started cutting my coffee filters, then I cut his in the biggest hearts I could. I didn't cover the whole filter with paint so I had to be careful about all the white left over. I traced the big half heart after folding the coffee filter and free handed the little hearts in the leftovers.
Then I laminated them and cut them all. See the top right reddish one? That one he made all red especially for his grandma Dada. You can see I wrote his name, the date and age with a pencil on the left.
I tried to explain to him when he got up, that the hearts already made were his coffee filter he painted earlier but as he touched them plasticized you could see he couldn't imagine those being the filters. But he still had fun sticking them on the window :) I had made one too while he was napping and took it down before he woke up, can you tell which one is who's?
He had done a coffee filter for papa and one for me, so for those I waited for him to get up and pick the shape he wanted me to cut it. Then I laminated those with more little leftovers hearts, he was in awe in front of the laminator, it was the first time he saw it. Showing him how it happened, it seemed to have clicked in his head how those plastic hearts were what he painted before. Fun to see the little wheels turning in there
If you do this, we'd LOVE to see a photo of it. Email it to us or post it on our Facebook page. We'd love to do a Facebook album, a Pinterest board and a page of your creations

Best grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun. Does well in loamy, clay soils with good drainage. Benefits from a slow release fertilizer. Overly fertile soils tend to produce lush foliage growth at the expense of flowering with somewhat increased susceptibility to winter injury, however. Water roots deeply, particularly in dry spells, but avoid wetting the foliage. Plant in a protected location and apply a good winter mulch. Growing crape myrtles in the St. Louis area can be tricky because the above ground branches often die to the ground in winter, particularly when temperatures dip below -5 degrees F. Above ground branches are considered to be winter hardy to USDA Zone 7, whereas roots are usually but not always hardy to USDA Zone 5. In the St. Louis area (Zone 5b to 6a), it is perhaps best to grow these plants as perennials (like buddleias) by cutting all stems back to 8" in early spring each year. Roots will sprout new stems which typically grow 2-4' tall by the end of the growing season. Flowers appear on the new wood. It is also an option in St. Louis to grow these plants as woody shrubs by pruning them back to live wood in spring at the time new foliage begins to appear (in somewhat the same manner as with shrub roses). With protection, top growth will survive some winters, but will still suffer significant injury or die to the ground in harsh winters.
This crape myrtle cultivar (a cross between L. indica and L. fauriei) is one of several mildew resistant hybrids developed by the National Arboretum in Washington, D.C., all of which have been given Native American tribe names. It is a deciduous, upright, spreading, multi-stemmed shrub. Features dark green foliage (bronze tinged when young) turning dull orange to dark red in fall, cinnamon to gray bark which exfoliates with age and terminal, crepe-papery, 5-9" long inflorescences (panicles) of light lavender flowers from mid-summer to early fall. Flowers give way to round seed capsules which often persist well into winter. In the South, this cultivar can easily be grown as a woody shrub or small tree with a maximum size of 13' tall and 9' wide. In the St. Louis area where winter injury is a problem, plants will grow much smaller.
The two main disease problems of crape myrtles are fungal leaf spot and powdery mildew. This cultivar reportedly has excellent mildew resistance. Foliage may yellow (chlorosis) in alkaline soils. Some susceptibility to aphids and scale. Winter injury, particularly to top growth, often occurs in USDA Zones 5 and 6.
Good as a specimen shrub or in groups. Shrub borders or perennial borders. In the South where above ground winter hardiness is not a problem, this cultivar is also quite effective as a tall screen or informal hedge or may be trained as a small tree.

LOVE Park, the symbolic heart of the city and a destination for tourists and skateboarders from around the world, is expected to undergo a $20 million renovation starting in 2013.
Mayor Nutter will announce the plans for the iconic park, officially known as John F. Kennedy Plaza, in his budget address Thursday morning, several sources said.
Few details were available Wednesday, but broadly, the proposal calls for bringing the elevated park to street level and removing walls that block entrance from many of the surrounding sidewalks.
Robert Indiana's LOVE sculpture would stay, as would the fountain and the Fairmount Park Welcome Center, the building across from Suburban Station that resembles a spaceship.

Lately I've been doing a lot of driving back and forth between Gardnerville and San Ramon for work. With the terrific weather we've had, it's tempting to take it for granted that the roads will be clear and the conditions safe.
But sometime I know I will have to leave or come back right in the middle of a snow storm.
I've taken some precautions that make me feel a little better, especially after reading about the tragedy in December for the couple who got stuck off of Highway 88 in Hope Valley.
First, if it's really bad, I don't go. I arrange to conference into the meeting and live to meet another day.
Second, when I do go, I try to make sure I'm driving during daylight hours. More likely to be other traffic during the day and any dangerous situations are more visible to anyone passing by who could help me.
Third, I drive a car that has a full tank of gas, is regularly serviced and winterized, handles well in the snow and ice and has good tires.
Last, but not least, I'm prepared when those aren't enough. I call in every hour so that my family knows how far I got in case we lose contact. I have a collection of things that live in the back of my Subaru that make me feel just a little more secure:
Fully charged cell phone with a car adaptor in case I need a charge;
Map and directions for alternate routes in case of road closures;
Spare tire, jack, lug wrench, tire chains;
Car repair kit with jumper cables, flares, flat tire retire;
Flashlight, screw driver, hammer, neat sheet and a leatherman tool;
Emergency heat blanket, paraffin candle, matches, toilet paper and a trowel;
Hand warmers, coat, hat, gloves, boots;
Bottled water, dried fruit and of course, chocolate.
Consumer Reports publishes a longer list and as time goes on, I'll probably try to add those things, but for now, I feel pretty good about the steps I've taken to keep myself and my family safe when we have to be on the road in the winter.

Good on you, get back on that pony
Ok, so I lied, my story (unfortunately) has nothing to do with sex, but (unfortunately again) has too much to do with candy.
Hello, my (screen) name is Jennachica, and I have relapsed into periods of BED again. I have been struggling with the binging since I was about 12 years old, started getting out of control when I was 25, and now at 29 years old has actually put me in the hospital twice this year.
I took a few months off of work, went to Mexico, did a phenomenal month on Whole30, came back home, and have relapsed...badly, for a month now. Put on all the weight I had lost, but worse of all, am feeling terrible and am truly disappointed in myself.
However, I am NOT going to cry about it anymore. No, I am going to testify here that I am doing another Whole30 challenge and STOPPING this before it takes over and ruins my life again. Primal living has been the single greatest thing that has happened to me, and I will not fall off the wagon and let it run over me again.
I don't really care if anyone reads this, although it would be nice to have support! But I need an outlet to post and somewhat hold myself somewhat accountable to my actions. I plan on writing each and every day. I've tried journaling in the past, didn't work bc I don't really hold myself accountable, to well, myself, so I am going to give this a try! Day One tomorrow
Good on you, get back on that pony
It's what I love about the MDA crowd, plenty of support and ideas around.
There is a huge positive to take from the Mexico/home cycle and that is you understand the feedback loop. Your body is telling you what works for it and what doesn't so set yourself some targets and see how you react to meeting those targets and keep the loop positive.
Hey Jennachica,
I am new here, but feel free to PM me for support or venting. Stay positive and give yourself time to adjust.
Thanks guys , this is what I love about the MDA forums, so much positivity and support. I need to get my priorities straight, and health needs to be #1, because without your health you truly have nothing!
Day One of Whole30....again.....go!
Hi Jennachica! Good luck this time. You can do it!
(However, have you considered that doing an intense 30 might trigger a relapse when you are done with it? What if you focused on what you could live with for the rest of your life?)
Ancestral Health Info
I design websites and blogs for a living. If you would like a blog or website designed by someone who understands Primal, see my web page.
Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.
You are completely right Hedonist. For some reason every time I set a time frame or attach numbers to it I freak out and binge. I'm going to focus more on the Whole30 principles but not call it anything , just LIVING life primal, striving for the 100% so I know at least I'll get to 80% that way. Ugh, wait, I just used numbers....haha
Jennachica - Keep you head held high. You can do it! If you want feel free to send me a message for any support you need.
My goal pic...
Sugar is a damn drug. It's a sick and evil cycle that I must break permanently. GROKETTE ON!
http://www.etsy.com/shop/JLDesignStudio (My personal designs & creations of quality handcrafted jewelry. Items for grokettes AND groks of all ages.)
Sounds like you might need "baby" steps rather than jumping in 100%. Maybe start with something this week - make it a habit, then next week or a week later add another thing. Obviously, we all are different and to be successful we have to find out how we roll. I started my journey slowly I guess. Always looking for something new cuz what I was doing wasn't working or wasn't solving the whole problem. I would do "this" and then read more and then do "this." Kept it interesting and not so overwhelming.
I wish you the best. Most of us fall off every now and again. Don't beat yourself when you do; Just enjoy the ride (and the ice cream if that's what it takes that day) and take it a day at a time!

Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 9, 2008
Former Ohio Prison Director George F. Denton Passes Away
(Columbus) - George Denton, who served as the second Director for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction passed away on Thursday, May 8, 2008. He served as Director of the Department from 1975-1983.
In 1975, then-Governor James Rhodes appointed Adult Parole Authority Chief George F. Denton as the Director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. Prior to being appointed the Director, George Denton served as the Chief of the Adult Parole Authority from 1965 – 1974.
George Denton began his career in corrections in 1948 as a Parole Officer for the Indiana Department of Corrections and was named Director of Parole Services in Indiana in 1957. In 1962 he was appointed Assistant Commissioner of the Indiana Department of Corrections.
Mr. Denton was the Director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction until 1983. After leaving Ohio, he was appointed and served one year as the Director of Corrections for the State of California.
While serving as Director for Ohio, Mr. Denton supported programs through the Division of Parole and Community Services. The Monday Program in Montgomery County and the Incarceration Division in Lucas County are direct results of his efforts to obtain funding to implement pilot projects. During the early years of Director Denton's term there were national efforts to abolish parole. Mr. Denton was instrumental in warding off this effort.
During his time as the Director, the inmate population grew by 84% and Director Denton was able to locate and renovate existing facilities to handle the burgeoning offender population. His administration also faced confinement lawsuits and developed creative ways to house prisoners in order to comply with court findings.
"We are saddened by the loss of Director Denton. He was a true pioneer and he was instrumental in expanding parole services and programming through the Division of Parole and Community Services," stated current Director Terry Collins.

X-Babies and Barack The Barbarian – Kids Comics This WeekBrett Singer
Quick note about this week's list — Barack The Barbarian is not a comic for younger kids. Older, more politically savvy kids, perhaps. Read on for details.
Kid Stuff
Simpsons Winter Wingding #4
Bakugan Battle Brawlers Vol 4 Dan & Drago GN: Not sure if the age range of this one but I have to think "no older than 11." It's Bakugan. If you don't know what Bakugan is, you're too old. And that's… OK.
Street Fighter Vol 1 Round One Fight TP: See above. Although you may know what Street Fighter is because it was a video game that came out a long time ago.
Free Realms #4: This comic is advertised in my son's comic books more than any other. I think that it's basically an ad for the Free Realms online role-playing game.
Disney Pixars Incredibles #3: This isn't as good as it should be, which is too bad because the movie was great. But the kids like it. It has a decent enough story but it feels very slapped together.
Archie Double Digest #204
Betty #183
Sonic The Hedgehog Vol 2 #207
Donald Duck And Friends #348: My kids aren't big Disney fans, but they love these Disney comics. Go figure.
Cartoon Network Action Pack #44: This issue does not have Ben 10 in it, and therefore it will not be in my weekly pile. I mean my son's weekly pile.
Looney Tunes Vol 3 #181
Aesops Fables TP: Yet another version of the old Aesop tales.
Borderline Kids Stuff/Older Kids
X-Babies #3: I think I'm going to let my son read these. There's nothing objectionable in it, it's just vaguely disturbing to see a baby version of Wolverine pop out of a TV and enter the "real" world. But he can handle it.
Female Force Barbara Walters: This title is pushing it a little. I like the idea of the Michelle Obama and Sarah Palin comic book biographies. Even the Female Force Stephenie Meyer comic was timely, and understandable because right now everything Twilight-related sells big time. And yes, Baba Wawa is an accomplished woman. Still it's kind of… well, meh.
Political Power #5 Ted Kennedy: Interesting but I doubt anyone will buy it.
Grown-up stuff
Thor Vol 3 #604: Thor has gotten really good lately. First Thor brings the Asgardians back to life and plants Asgard in Oklahoma. (Really.) Then Loki does some quality lying and gets Thor exiled, and convinces the Asgardians to move to Latveria, the country ruled by the evil Doctor Doom. Doom is… well, I don't want to give it all away. It's fun stuff.
What If Secret Invasion: I used to love "What If?" as a kid. The idea of an alternate universe where things happened just a little bit differently fascinates me. "What If?" used to be a regular series but has lately been a series of occassional one-shots, most of which haven't been that good. But I've bought most of them.
Barack The Barbarian Quest For The Treasure Of Stimuli #3: This is funnier than it has any right to be. Probably a Parental Advisory title, but it could be OK for a kid who is into politics. It's basically Obama, McCain, Palin and others cast as Conan The Barbarian-style characters. (Conan is one of the President's favorite comic books, according to various reports.) Best line so far: the Palin character says to the McCain character, "I'm not afraid of anything." McCain responds, "That's because you're not that bright."
