[H&F] [DM] "Refugee Crisis and the North"
Friend of the blog Jussi Jalonen has just posted, at the group blog History and Futility, the essay "Refugee Crisis and the North". Here, Jalonen takes a look at the way the Syrian refugee crisis has impacted both his Finland and neighbouring Sweden, looking at the political climate in both countries. One thing I particularly liked is his prediction of different outcomes for refugee assimilation in each Nordic country, based on–among other things–the two countries' very different recent histories of immigration.
Some time ago, my hometown on the West Coast made a decision to accept refugees from Syria. The decision was historic. Although the town of Rauma has always had a relatively substantial community of guest workers and immigrants, the town has not accommodated refugees or asylum seekers so far. This morning, the residential building which was supposed to be used as a reception center for asylum seekers became a target of arson attack. Only a few days before, an old garrison building intended for similar use was burned to the ground in Kankaanpää. Evidently some people in Western Finland do not like the idea of providing housing for asylum seekers.
Another piece of news today came from Sweden. The school teacher who was injured in the Trollhättan attack in October has now died from his wounds. The attack made international headlines two months ago, and was also a sign of the times; a sword-wielding masked young man with far right sympathies assaulted a local Swedish school, in a violent assault against the immigrant students. So far, no comparable incident has occurred in Finland, although occasional direct assaults against asylum seekers have taken place. Three weeks ago, an Iraqi asylum seeker was stabbed by three local men at the reception center of Kangasala.
While a good part of the people in both Nordic countries have participated in volunteer work on behalf of refugees and asylum seekers, the refugee crisis has also triggered a wave of xenophobia. The European refugee crisis has occurred at the moment when the Nordic countries are experiencing the apex of the ongoing radical right-wing populist reaction. Sweden, which appears to be accepting the largest number of refugees, is going through a massive political realignment, as the so-far isolated and solidly anti-immigration Sweden-Democrats have enjoyed record poll support, occasionally as the largest political party. The refugee crisis has contributed to additional political radicalization, and earlier this year, the Sweden-Democrats terminated all cooperation with the youth organization of the party. Already in the spring, a number of SD youth activists were discharged due to their links with neo-Nazi groups.
The situation in Finland is somewhat different from Sweden. The main populist party, the True Finns, which contains its fair share of hard-core anti-immigration extreme nationalists, is exercising political power, having accepted a position in the new center-right government coalition. The party has found itself in a very precarious position, especially since Finland, as the only Nordic member of the Eurozone, is now facing impending austerity measures, and the center-right coalition is also enacting new, tougher labor laws. So far, the True Finns have quietly abandoned their former social conscience and their commitment to the consensus society. The party has acceded to these packages, and even moderated their position towards the EU bailout programs. The disappointment of the party rank and file has been visible in the polls, and the support of the party has plummeted. This has generated additional pressure for the True Finns to somehow crack down hard at least on the refugee crisis, and the party has been clamoring for new anti-immigration legislation modeled after Denmark, including cutting the welfare benefits of refugees and asylum seekers.

[LINK] "Russian Border Anxiety Grows as Finland Beefs Up Military Budget
Finland's strained relations with Russia is the subject of Raine Tiessalo's Bloomberg article.
The western nation that shares the longest border with Russia is building up its military arsenal, just in case.
Having already moved as close as politically possible to NATO, Finland now wants to spend more on its own war ships, fighter planes and army personnel. Defense Minister Jussi Niinisto says his government has little choice under the circumstances.
"The crisis in Ukraine and increased global tensions have led Finnish policy makers to think that we must take care of our own defenses," Niinisto said in an interview in his office in Helsinki this week.
A lawmaker for the Finns Party — the nationalist junior partner in Prime Minister Juha Sipila's ruling coalition — Niinisto has already pushed through Finland's first increase in military spending in three years. That followed repeated incursions by Russian fighter planes into Finnish airspace in the aftermath of President Vladimir Putin's annexation of Crimea.
The added cost of beefing up Finland's military is putting pressure on an economy that has contracted for the past three years and that was stripped of its top credit grade at Standard & Poor's in October 2014.
"Even though Finland is going through hard times, defense and internal security are the only sectors that will get more funding," Niinisto said.
According to the Finnish Defense Ministry, spending is set to rise 9 percent next year to 2.89 billion euros ($3.1 billion), equivalent to 1.4 percent of gross domestic product. The government has agreed to raise the defense budget by 150 million euros from its current level by 2020.
[URBAN NOTE] "Opening New City Hall"
Torontoist's Jamie Bradburn describes the scene on the 13th of September, 1965, as the new City Hall was opened.
When the new City Hall opened on September 13, 1965, that afternoon's Toronto Star editorial echoed many initial thoughts about our new $31 million landmark:
Suddenly today every Torontonian is ten feet high. For the new City Hall is his. He is part of its greatness and shares its beauty. There in its mass and grace is his visible assurance that he is a citizen of no mean city. The building in Nathan Phillips Square is more than an impressive and proud architectural statement of civic status. It gives the metropolis a focus. It is the heart of Toronto's future. It is the symbol of the new Toronto and we can rejoice in what it means.
Seven years after Viljo Revell's design was chosen in an open competition, four years after ground had broken, the controversial structure buzzed with activity while preparing for its debut. Forty-two workmen moved furniture, including the mayor's desk, across Bay Street via overnight dolly runs. Shelves were filled at the new library branch. Workmen scrambled to finish installing desks and rugs, catching up after an eight-week carpenters' strike. Metro Toronto's coat of arms for the council chamber arrived late. Officials decided that the first two floors of the podium, the council chamber, and the basement cafeteria were the only areas ready for public scrutiny.
A military band from Petawawa launched the festivities at 1:30 p.m., which drew a crowd of 15,000. The civic guard of honour escorted city councillors and suburban mayors and reeves from old City Hall to the platform in front of the new building. At 2:15, a 100-member honour guard drawn from five regiments marched into the square. Accompanied by the first of several RCAF flyovers, Governor-General Georges Vanier's motorcade arrived on time. He was followed by the Finnish ambassador to Canada, Torstein Tikanvaara, Prime Minister Lester Pearson, and Ontario Premier John Robarts.

How to choose the best affiliate program
Stay till the end to find out what affiliate program I'm part of.
It's very important to choose the right affiliate program
Because your going to be spending most of your time with the program and want to make sure your not wasting your time.
A good place to start is Click Bank
It's a good place because it's free to make an account and pays you commission right away
Commissions are what you make every time you make a sale
The best affiliate programs are those that pay you 60% or more commissions
anything less is not worth your time.
Another thing to loOK for is
High Gravity
High gravity is showing you how much it's selling for other people,
the higher it is the better the market
But that goes up and down depending on the market so don't spend to much time loOKing at that that much, but it's a good thing to watch out for.
The Numbers
A trick I use to save time when loOKing for the affiliate programs is once I've signed up
1) I go to marketplace 2) choose the category 3)loOK for the numbers
You should loOK for the numbers ex:
Initial $/sale: should always be under 25 $
everything else is better high
Grav: 33.64 that's OK not the best but it's OK
Sales page
The next thing to do after you loOK at the numbers
There should be a site to loOK at about the program
Check out the sales page, does it loOK good would you buy it
See if they give you support in selling the product.
Also Another Trick To see how good The program is
It's called CBengine
When you choose your affiliate program
click promote it's going to give you name at the top
Copy and paste that name in the cbengine site on the right
where it says keywords to see the graph, just a little extra information
These are some easy steps to take to save you time when looKing for programs. You can be searching a long time before you find the right affiliate program for your needs, and desires.
Not every affiliate program is the right one, I learned that the hard way, so it's good to follow the steps and know what's the best one to get into.
I'm glad to say that I found a great program that pays me 100% commissions it tooK time but I got it and joined right away and glad I did.

In the time it takes to read this, it's likely that four or five fouls would have been called in Kansas' 80-63 season opening win over Louisiana at Monroe in Allen Fieldhouse. A game that turned out to be the program's 700th all time win inside historic Allen Fieldhouse was marred by the new college basketball rules that pretty much prohibit contact by anyone.
Of course, the officials couldn't help it. They were just doing their job, enforcing the rules. Still, a basketball game that is at its most fun when it flows, was robbed of any flow, leaving it a game littered with free throws and whistles.
"It was an ugly game. I don't see how you can have a pretty game when there's 58 fouls," head coach Bill Self said. "You get a little rhythm going and then stop."
In addition to the 58 fouls (31 for ULM, 28 for Kansas), both teams combined to shoot 72 free throws and whatever home court advantage the old gym could provide was essentially nullified by the constant stoppages of play.
"It's going be hard to get the crowd into the game when you stop it every possession and it's not anybody's fault, that's just how it's going to be," Self said. "Home crowds aren't going to be as homey."
The rules along with an early season game with a very young team contributed to it being close, as Kansas only led 42-32 at the half.
In the second half, whenever they could, the Jayhawks piece together fragmented runs that provided a little bit of breathing room. They eventually would stretch their lead to as much as 20 behind freshman Andrew Wiggins, who made his official college basketball debut with 16 points on five of nine shooting. Perry Ellis and Andrew White were the other Jayhawks in double figures with 12 points each. Ellis also added eight rebounds.
With the win, Kansas now can turn its attention to its showdown with Duke, Tuesday night at the Champions Classic in Chicago. The Blue Devils crushed Davidson 111-77 in its opener behind their sensational freshman Jabari Parker.

Nestor J. Zaluzec[1] is an American scientist and inventor who works at Argonne National Laboratory. He invented and patented the Scanning Confocal Electron Microscope.[2][3][4][5] and the π Steradian Transmission X-ray Detector for Electron-Optical Beam Lines and Microscopes.[6][7]
A Fellow of both Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) as well as the Computational Institute of the University of Chicago, Zaluzec has and continues to hold the tripartite role of Senior Scientist, Educator and Inventor at Argonne. As an innovator, his research includes development state-of-the art of instrumentation and techniques for atomic resolution x-ray & electron spectroscopy, and electron microscopy. In addition to creating tools for science, as a researcher he also uses these bleeding edge technologies to study vexing problems in technologically important materials. Over the last quarter of a century, his work has included studies in the areas of: structural phase transformations in metals, radiation damage in alloys, ceramic oxides for geologic immobilization of nuclear waste materials, elemental segregation in semiconductor devices, to genetically engineered proteins for creation of two dimensional biological templates for magnetic nanoarrays. He was one of the earliest to realize the potential impact of the Internet on science and established the TelePresence Microscopy Collaboratory,[8] which has served as a model for outreach to both the scientific and education communities providing unencumbered access to scientific resources. In addition to his roles as an adjunct professor at various Illinois universities, he also strives to engage the next generation of scientists through his work with the Illinois Junior Academy of Science, where he continues to interact on a one to one basis with middle and high school students.
Electron microscopy[edit]
Zaluzec has made wide ranging contributions to the field of electron microscopy and microanalysis beginning with his seminal work on quantitative x-ray and electron spectroscopy, which has been disseminated throughout the scientific and academic communities through hundreds of lectures, short courses and/or seminars at scientific conferences and meetings around the globe. He developed Lorentz STEM imaging, High Angular Resolution Electron Channeling X-ray Spectroscopy (HARECXS), High Angular Resolution Electron Channeling Electron Spectroscopy (HARECES), Position Resolved Diffraction, as well as his invention of the scanning confocal electron microscope and the π steradian Transmission X-ray Detector, for which he was given the R&D 100 Awards in 2003 and 2010 respectively.
His professional leadership, includes the Midwest Microscopy and Microanalysis Society (MMMS)[9] and numerous positions in the Microscopy Society of America (MSA) to which was elected President in 2009.[10] He is the recipient of numerous awards from professional societies such as the August Köhler Award from the State Microscopical Society of Illinois, Distinguished Service Awards from the MSA and the Australian Microscopy Society, Member of the Year Award from the Midwest Society of Electron Microscopists, Presidential Citation from the Australian Society for Electron Microscopy, the Science Digest "One of America's 100 Brightest Scientists" Award and two R&D 100 Awards. He has been elected as a Fellow of ORNL, the Microscopy Society of America and the Computational Institute of the University of Chicago.
He established and was the first Director of the Electron Microscopy Center at Argonne National Laboratory,[11] and has held various Adjunct Professorial Appointments at Illinois Universities (IIT, UIUC, UIC, and NIU) and is a member of 6 professional microscopy societies (MSA, Microbeam Analysis Society, Microscopical Society of Canada, Australian Microscopy and Microanalysis Society, European Microscopy Society, MMMS), and has served on 5 national committees. Zaluzec has also served the professional community of fellow scientists in a number of other ways as a volunteer (1980–present). For the last two decades, he has operated the Microscopy Listserver[12] a communication form that links over three thousand microscopists and microanalysts worldwide.

The apartment was large enough. In the sleeping area can not stand it because it only about 140 cm high. The apartment you I know so far from Salvatore (3) are designed. The location is central, near tram station
The apartment was on the 3rd floor and the elevator was within 6 days 3 times broken.
The front door had no lock and people have urinated in the aisle.
The apartment was absolutely not professionally cleaned (I have to do with it). For me, does it look as if no one controls. The bathroom had mold which was not addressed and escalated.
ES is the zwite I at Salvat
Die Wohnung war genügend Gross. Im Schafbereich kann man nicht stehen, da er nur cirka 140 cm hoch. Die Wohnung dich ich bis jetzt von Salvatore kenne (3) sind so konstruiert. Die Lage ist zentral, nähe Tramstation
Die Wohnung war im 3 Stock und der Lift war innerhalb 6 Tagen 3 mal kaputt.
Die Eingangstür war ohne Schloss und Leute haben in den Gang uriniert.
Die Wohnung wurde absolut nicht professionell gereinigt (Ich habe damit zu tun). Für mich sieht das aus, als ob das niemand kontrolliert. Im Badezimmer hatte es Schimmel der nicht behandelt wurde und sich ausweitete.
ES ist das zwite das ich bei Salvat
It's a very nice, clean, modern decorated and centrally located apartment In an approximate 10 minutes walking distance from the sea. It also feels really safe to stay there as there is a video recording of all people coming in and out at the main entrance to the apartment's block. Salvatore is a great host, very friendly and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay there
Väldigt trevlig lägenhet. Centralt, bra instruktioner och tips för vad man kunde göra under sin vistelse. God kontakt med ägaren och en lägenhet jag gärna skulle hyra igen!
Purtroppo questa volta brutta sorpresa.. Scarafaggi nell'alloggio per la prima settima e per la seconda nonostante la pulizia pure. Avevo già affittato appartamenti da questa agenzia ma questa volta una vera delusione.
Fin lille lejlighed i centrum af Nice.
Ligger perfekt i forhold til strand og centrum.
Men husk parkering i Nice er meget dyrt !!!
30 gr i august og desværre ingen aircondition, meget meget varmt om natten da man ikke kan have vinduer åbnet p.g.a. støj fra gaden.
Forvent ikke at i vil blive mødt ved lejligheden af udlejer som står i annoncen, kontaktede dem flere gange, men de kendte ikke til at det var en aftale at mødes ved lejligheden, Det var IKKE godt
Ellers kan vi kun anbefale en ferie i Nice
Hoveddøra inn til huset der leilegheita var stod open heile døgeret då den var knust. Folk frå gata trekte inn i trapperommet om kvelden/natta. Leilegheita har ikkje air condition, og med svært låg (kan ikkje stå oppreist) på hemsen var varmen svært ubehageleg. Vasken på badet var tett då vi kom, men vi fekk den ordna sjølv. I dusjen heng eit dusjforheng, ikkje dusjdør. Sprossene på glaset var delvis øydelagde. Det som kan vere positivt med leileheita er beliggenheiten, ca femten min å gå til strand, men nær shoppinggata i Nice.
El estudio es céntrico, limpio y equipado. Todas las consultas extras fueron atendidas por Salvatore a través de Whatsapp desde el momento de la llegada.
Es un apartamento con todas las comodidades, en pleno centro de Niza. Todo correcto, y sin duda, muy recomendable para una estancia agradable. El barrio es tranquilo y en una zona donde se encuentra todo tipo de servicios. El propietario nos ha dado todo tipo de facilidades para que nuestra estancia haya sido estupenda. Merci Salvatore
Very nice apartment, practically furnished. Salvatore is very kind and helpful. :)
I stayed in the flat for 7 nights, from 10.08-16.08. I was very very disappointed by the flat Salvatore offered. It was totally different from the pictures I saw on the Wimdu website. The flat was not clean, there were trashes every corner of the room, the sofa has been probably never washed before, the flat generally stunk very badly. The lamp in the kitchen didn't work so it was very dark. Above all, there were so many cockroaches in the flat. I saw three living and five dead cockroaches in a week. I tried to contact Salvatore and change the room but nothing was available at that time. Moreover, the flat is very small. Never suitable for a family, as the ad describes. Up to 2 ppl would be ok.

Web development as a hack of hacks - QuirksBlog
PPK reads a Hacker News thread so you don't have to.
PPK reads a Hacker News thread so you don't have to.
I really, really like what Ember is aiming for here:
First, we deliver the raw content, ensuring those on slow connections or without JavaScript get they're after as soon as possible. Next, we load the minimum set of JavaScript needed to interactivity for that page, keeping transfer time and parsing time low. Once the user has an interactive page, we can start preemptively loading other parts of the application, including frequently-accessed data.
That's how you get the holy grail of resilience and performance:
Subsequent visits and interactions are therefore nearly instantaneous, because they don't rely on the network.
I sincerely hope other frameworks are paying attention to this layered approach.
Oh, and I also like this observation:
There's an age-old argument about the difference between "web pages" and "web apps". In reality, there's a continuum between the two.
Jon introduces a new tool with a very interesting observation: up until now, all our graphic design tools have been imperative rather than declarative…
With our current tools we're telling the computer how to design the vision we have in our head (by tapping on our input devices for every element on the screen); in our future tools we will tell our computers what we want to see, and let them figure out how to move elements around to get there.
A new pattern library tool, this time from the smart people at Cloud Four. It's called Drizzle and it started life as a fork of Fabricator.
Stuart's ideas for Lighthouse sound a lot like the resilience validator tool that Scott mentioned recently.
This is our chance to help stamp out sites that don't do things right, and help define that a progressive web app should actually be progressive.
If you have ideas on this, please file an issue.
A look at the tools that AirBnB have made to help them in their design and development process. I hope they'll share them.
The state of Javascript development is overwhelming and confusing because everyone is overengineering their apps by default without even realizing it.
There's that Acheulean hand ax again.
The first ever object to be designed by man 1.7 million years ago was a flint hand axe. Flint has the same molecular structure as a crystal and they both consist of silica. The project juxtaposes the flint hand axe with the latest crystal technology; Xero chaton the world's smallest precision cut crystal measuring 0.6mm in diameter, smaller than a grain of sand.
Even more intriguing than their vast distribution across three continents is their time depth. Acheulean hand axes have been found at sites spanning 1.5 million years of human existence, dating from roughly 1.6 million years ago to about 100,000 years ago. That makes the Acheulean ax the most sustainable technology that members of our genus (Homo) ever developed. Consider, in contrast, the amount of technological change that has occurred in just the last 150 years (since the first telephone call), one ten-thousandth the amount of time the Acheulean hand ax was made and used. Or consider the amount of technological change in just the last 10 years (since the first iPhone was introduced), one one-hundred-fifty-thousandth the amount of time that Acheulean hand axes were made and used. In the memorable words of my former professor Arthur J. Jelinek, hand axes represent "mind-numbing technological stability."
As promised, Maciej has posted the transcript of his excellent Web Directions talk on performance.
So, so good.
Use a framework if you must but never presume it's viable over the long-term. Newer and better alternatives will appear before you're half-way through your project. Never forget frameworks are an option — you don't have to use one.
A superb talk on performance, advertising, and the future of the web. No doubt a transcript will appear in due time on Maciej's site and when it does, I will enjoy it all over again.
Trust me: you'll want to watch this.
This seems like a decent endeavour:
A collaborative research project aimed at designing better tools and practices for learning web development.
Harry packs a lot of great tips and tricks into one short video about performance troubleshooting. It's also a great lesson in unlocking some handy features in Chrome's developer tools.
Great stuff!
A look at detecting, pinpointing, measuring, and fixing rendering performance issues.
Sara enumerates some handy tips aimed squarely at designers exporting SVGs. It focuses on Illustrator in particular but I'm sure a lot of this could equally apply to Sketch.
Following on from her great conversation with Jen on The Web Ahead podcast, Rachel outlines a strategy to avoid feeling overwhelmed by the deluge of tools, frameworks, libraries, and techniques inundating front-end developers every day:
Learn your core skills well. Understand HTML and CSS, be able to build a layout without leaning on a framework. Get a solid understanding of how a website actually gets from the server to a browser, an understanding of security and accessibility. These are the basics, the constants. These things change slowly. These things sit underneath all the complexity and the tooling, the CMSs and the noise of thousands of people all trying to make their mark on this industry.
She also makes this important point:
As you are doing this don't forget to share what you know.
A great presentation from Stephen. He takes a thoughtful look at our processes and tools.
The system makes the website. Don't blame the web developer, blame the organisation. A web developer embedded in a large system isn't the one making the websites.
To make a progressively enhanced website that performs well and loads quickly even on slow connections, you need to first make an organisation that values those qualities over others.
Instead of coming up with all these new tools and JavaScript frameworks, shouldn't we try to emphasize the importance of learning the underlying fundamentals of the web? Teach those who are just stepping to this medium and starting their careers. By not making our stack more and more complex, but by telling about the best practices that should guide our work and the importance of basic things.
When I look around, I see our community spending a lot of time coming up with new tools and techniques to make our jobs easier. To ship faster. And it's not that I'm against efficiency, but I think we need to consider the implications of our decisions. And if one of those implications is making our users suffer—or potentially suffer—in order to make our lives easier, I think we need to consider their needs above our own.
Kenneth has isolated Chrome's dev tools into its own app. This is a big step towards this goal:
Why are DevTools still bundled with the browsers? What if clicking "inspect element" simply started an external DevTools app?
With DevTools separated from one specific browser, a natural next step would be making the DevTools app work with other browsers.
A collection of performance resources: articles, tools, talks, and books.
A very handy collection from Anna: articles, books, talks, podcasts, and examples of front-end style guides. If something's missing, feel free to add it.
Focus on what you want to learn; not what you think you should learn.
There is a lot of pressure out there: to learn new things, to spend all your time coding, to be the super developer. I now believe that to be impossible and unhealthy. It means you aren't living a balanced life and it also means that you're living under constant stress and pressure.
Turns out that Brian LeRoux and I gave the same answer to this question:
I think I just saved you a click.
I can relate to every single word that Bastian has written here.
The longer I look at boilerplates, build tools, frameworks and ways to make my life as a developer easier, the more I long for the basics.
Today, a basic HTML/CSS site seems almost passé. But why? Is it because our new tools are so significantly better, or because we've gone overboard complicating simple things?
He's right, y'know.
The transcript of Malarkey's recent talk. Good thoughtful stuff.
Well, this is pretty nifty: Dan Gilmour is at Indie Web Camp in San Francisco and he's already got some code up and running on his site.
Y'know, I'm not missing South by Southwest in the slightest this year …but I'm really missing Indie Web Camp.
Excellent tips and tools from Google's Paul Lewis on performance testing.
Craig recently had a piece published in the New Yorker called Goodbye, Cameras. It's good …but this follow-on piece on his own site is truly wonderful.
Read. Absorb. Ponder.
Being close to the network does not mean being on Facebook, thought it can mean that, too. It does not mean pushing low-res images to Instagram, although there's nothing wrong with that. What the network represents, in my mind, is a sort of ledger of humanity. The great shared mind. An image's distance to it is the difference between contributing or not contributing to that shared ledger.
John shares his concerns about the increasing complexity involved in developing for the web.
John addresses the price of increasing complexity in front-end development.
Yes, tooling can make our life easier. We type fewer keystrokes, and commit more code. But as software engineers learned a long time ago, most of the life of an applications is not in its initial development. It's in maintaining it. This is something we on the web have had the luxury of being able to largely ignore up to now. After all, how many of the things you build will last years, decades?
Happy birthday, JS Bin!
Remy has some important news. No, it's not the competition to recreate animated gifs with canvas; scroll down past that…
Remy will be working on JS Bin full time. To make this possible, JS Bin will have Pro accounts. But don't worry; all the functionality available today will continue to be available in the future.
But Pro accounts will get a bunch of nifty extra features (and if you're in education, you get Pro for free).
Sign me up!
I really like Dan's take on using Photoshop (or Fireworks) as part of today's web design process. The problem is not with the tool; the problem is with the expectations set by showing comps to clients.
By default, presenting a full comp says to your client, "This is how everyone will see your site." In our multi-device world, we're quickly moving towards, "This is how some people will see your site," but we're not doing a great job of communicating that.
It might seem like an obvious point, but what Tim is talking about here happens over and over again: a technique is dismissed based on bad implementation.
This post is ten years old, but I think it might still be the best attempt to demarcate a difference between web "sites" and web "apps": think of them as stories and tools.
It's also remarkably prescient about the need for an effort exactly like HTML5:
A widely-distributed, standards-compliant, browser and platform-independent library of functions that would perform the basic user interface functions for a web-based tool, relying on the server side only for the logic and data sourcing.
This is a very in-depth look at how to become a power user of the Web Inspector in Webkit browsers. I'm sitting down with a nice cup of tea to go through all of this.
This seems like an eminently sensible thing to do when building responsive sites: ditch mock-ups entirely. The reasons and the workflow outlined here make a lot of sense.
How designing in the browser works for rapid iteration.
Mark talks about the tools web designers use and the tools web designers want. The upshot: use whatever you're most comfortable with.
Jonathan gives a thorough overview of the various tools and frameworks out there to help build native, hybrid and mobile web apps. He also shares his decision-making process on when to build what.
An excellent design technique from Samantha that allows you to nail down a visual vocabulary without using something as wishy-washy as a mood board or as rigid as a fully-blown comp. Brilliant!
The style tile is not a literal translation of what the website is going to be, but a starting point for the designer and the client to have a conversation and establish a common visual language.
A nice collection of design tools and methodologies.

Dark Shadows Has Problems
Naturally, Tim Burton has brought an extremely vivid look to his adaptation of Dark Shadows, based on the '70s soap opera about a vampire who's only marginally weirder than the people around him.
The film also has a terrific soundtrack featuring period pieces by T. Rex, the Carpenters, and other odd throwbacks.
But it's tonally uneven, going from a soulfully beautiful beginning that sets up Barnabas Collins' plight, then thrusting us into sitcom-like fish-out-of-water antics, then wanting us to care about Angelique (Eva Green) coming back in full witchy mode and going up against Barnabas for one more conflict.
There are strong bits here and there, but also boring stretches and some head scratching moments.
Upcoming Events
Johnny Depp has the Barnabas bangs, but mainly registers as a floating blank who emits arch, self-consciously cute things (about "birthing hips" for example), then floats somewhere else.
The original show never tried to be cute.
Angelique is sometimes called Angie, and she even looks like Angelina Jolie at times.
Is this Depp's revenge on The Tourist?
Maybe--but it might also be Burton's retaliation.
After all, Angelique seems to be styled to look even more like Tim's ex, Lisa Marie!

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Cheats
Tested and proved. I just created a female Dokkalfar char and rush thru without touch any of the side quests, and reached the Hunter Hunted quest. No bugs. Gone thru the quest smoothly. So my guess is clear the main quest Hunter Hunted before going to Didenhil. It's a shame that I have to restart but I will wait for a save editor to release before continue playing the game, I still have Alan Wake to play. Good luck and see you guy around later...
i tried new game, even tried reinstalling the game and new game, but nope, didnt work. doing the dlc quests and so while waiting
did you go straight to the Theater of Fate without going to Didenhil?
yup why not? it was way too easy so i hadto go there and after some hours i got thru, but it went good. iv got the dlc and done it and iv got over 80 hours of gameplay but i cant go any fourter now as mainquest bug because iv done 99% that i could do while waiting for patch... *cries* i got same as this guy youtu.be/J-NxTY5HlSA

"For 10 years after Worm-Eaten Light was banned, Pavel couldn't write poetry even if he'd wanted to because it had lost its meaning in new reality of normalization. Through my translation, he recovered that part of his original self he'd thought had been lost forever."
September 27, 2016
"Since I can't be the only cultural producer to fail to name the mechanism of their own silencing in the moment, this sets up an interesting possibility: that the suppression of political expression by figures of authority—a conservative definition of censorship—is not always recognizable."
September 22, 2016
What this poet calls slippery, what I call smart. Like it matters, like I'm not / pulling rent money out of a dog's ass. // I was wrong. I want everything. I want to be fucked like the wife who waited / for her soldier's return, fucked: the island, the sand, the nymph, / the lust that strands him.

Durham moved a step closer to the LV= County Championship crown, routing Nottinghamshire for 78 and responding with 207 for eight on a day that saw every other game hit by rain.
5:55pm - With the day's action at an end, and all bar one game affected by rain, here's a summary of how things stand:
Division One
Leaders Durham, who will be guaranteed the title if they pick up 21 points this week, are 207 for eight in reply to Nottinghamshire's miserable 78 all out. The visitors to the Emirates Durham ICG won the toss.
Yorkshire were inserted by Middlesex at Headingley and reached 109 for three.
Rock-bottom Surrey are 59 for two having been put in by Warwickshire at Edgbaston.
Division Two
Only 10 overs were bowled at Bristol, where Lancashire were invited to bat by Gloucestershire and ended the day 33 for two.
Kent made it to 60 for one after Northamptonshire chose to field at Wantage Road.
Glamorgan, another side to be inserted, reached 103 for two against Essex at Chelmsford.
There was no play at Grace Road, where Leicestershire are hosting Hampshire.
5:40pm - Play is brought to a close at Durham with the hosts 207 for eight, leading by 129.
Stumps have also been drawn at Headingley with Yorkshire 109 for three.
5:37pm - Durham have a battle on their hands to register the second batting point that would guarantee victory brings them the title this week. Mullaney's dismissal of Graham Onions leaves the score reading 207 for eight.
50 for @Colly622 and that also brings up our first batting point, hitting 200-7.
— Durham Cricket Club (@DurhamCricket) September 17, 2013
5:18pm - Notts claim a seventh wicket at last! Mustard is bowled by Steven Mullaney for 77, one less than the visitors managed in their first innings. His stand with Collingwood, still there on 49, was worth 121.
5:14pm - It is almost as though Collingwood and Mustard are playing on a different pitch to the rest at Durham, although ecb.co.uk is confident that is not actually the case! The Division One leaders are 188 for six and 110 ahead.
5:04pm - Glamorgan and Essex will not return to the field today and bad light has forced another interruption at Headingley.
This partnership now passes 100. @colonel19 64no and @Colly622 44no. Durham 176-6.
— Durham Cricket Club (@DurhamCricket) September 17, 2013
4:48pm - The Hokey Cokey continues at Chelmsford, players heading back in due to bad light not long after they went out again.
Durham are closing in on a first batting point against Nottinghamshire, a scenario that appeared somewhat unlikely earlier today. Collingwood's men now lead by 85 at 163 for six.
WICKET! Gale furious with himself after pushing at a wide delivery from Collymore and edging behind for 66. Yorks 98-3
— Yorkshire CCC (@Yorkshireccc) September 17, 2013
4:32pm - More good news for Durham followers: Mustard reaches 50, from 72 balls, with his eighth four and Yorkshire have lost skipper Andrew Gale to Corey Collymore for 66.
Glamorgan and Essex are about to try again with a further four overs having been lost.
4:26pm - Runs are flowing freely now for Mustard. The Colonel moves on to 45 with three fours in an over from Luke Fletcher.
Rain has sadly intervened once again at Chelmsford with Glamorgan 101 for two and they are done for the day at Wantage Road, where Kent are 60 for one.
4:22pm - Glamorgan raise three figures against Essex and there could be further landmarks on the way soon as both Ben Wright and Murray Goodwin are nearing fifties.
4:15pm - Hold on to your hats...now the players are back on the field at Headingley!
In even more miraculous news, Durham's seventh-wicket pair have shared a fifty partnership. Before they joined forces 16 wickets had gone down for 152.
4:09pm - Another shower in Leeds scuppers the latest scheduled restart. Happily, they are back under way at Chelmsford.
Collingwood and Mustard continue to enhance Durham's position.
3:57pm - Play is off for the day at Edgbaston, where Surrey are 59 for two, but is due to resume at 4:10pm at Headingley.
3:35pm - There will be no play today at Grace Road, where Leicestershire are hosting Hampshire, and the planned 3:35pm restart at Headingley has bitten the dust.
However, Essex and Glamorgan are set to resume at 4pm.
Collingwood and Phil Mustard have taken Durham to tea at 108 for six. The skipper has 28 and Mustard 16.
Well tea has been and gone and still raining...getting slightly heavier again now..not looking good for rest of the day...
— Surrey Cricket (@surreycricket) September 17, 2013
3:15pm - That last update from Headingley is an encouraging one, but poor weather continues to blight proceedings elsewhere.
Durham now have a lead of 15, which appears handy given events in the north-east so far!
Play is due to re-start at 3.35pm. Yorks will resume on 90-2.
— Yorkshire CCC (@Yorkshireccc) September 17, 2013
3:03pm - The rain means play is done for the day at Bristol where promoted Lancashire, who will win the Division Two title with victory, are 33 for two. It's the tea interval at Edgbaston.
We have the lead but are 6 down, need experienced duo @Colly622 and @colonel19 to lead the way.
— Durham Cricket Club (@DurhamCricket) September 17, 2013
2:52pm - Borthwick's done his digging in for now as he is caught behind for 29 - 12 more than anyone else today at the Emirates Durham ICG - off Harry Gurney. The hosts are therefore 74 for six, four behind Notts.
2:46pm - Scott Borthwick and Paul Collingwood are digging in for Durham, who are nearing Notts' 78. The hosts need to make 250 in this innings to be able to win with 21 points and guarantee the title this week. That is unless Yorkshire fail to gain a maximum-point victory over Middlesex.
Tea is being taken at Headingley and Wantage Road.
2:25pm - Ben Stokes, having just driven from Southampton to Durham, gets a second-ball duck as Samit Patel's slip catch gives Adams a fourth scalp and leaves the hosts 45 for five in response to 78.
Adams claims his 3rd wicket, as @richo18howu departs for 10 finding the slips. 45-4 and @benstokes38 has arrived and is the new man in.
— Durham Cricket Club (@DurhamCricket) September 17, 2013
The rain is now falling at The Essex County Ground... https://t.co/aBw01oJPKM
— Essex Cricket (@EssexCricket) September 17, 2013
1:45pm - Warwickshire's recent Tweet rings true as Wessels has a third catch, Will Smith off Adams, Durham slipping to 25 for three.
Every match appears to be impacted by rain around the country except at Chester-le-Street where it's just raining wickets
— Warwickshire CCC (@CricketingBears) September 17, 2013
1:38pm - The only match in progress is at the Emirates Durham ICG as a shower sends the players off at Headingley with Yorkshire 90 for two.
Williamson hits successive pulles for four off Collymore after scoring only 14 off previous 79 balls. Yorks 90-2
— Yorkshire CCC (@Yorkshireccc) September 17, 2013
1:24pm - Durham's other opening batsman, Mark Stoneman, is also gone, Riki Wessels again the catcher in the slips as Luke Fletcher strikes.
Rain intervenes at Chelmsford, where Glamorgan are 85 for two, so there is no play in Division Two.
1:15pm - Durham, replying to Notts' paltry 78, lose a early wicket with Keaton Jennings edging Andre Adams to slip while Yorkshire captain Andrew Gale raises a fifty.
Rain is delaying the resumption at Edgbaston, Bristol and Wantage Road while there still has been no play at Grace Road.
12:35pm - Here are the lunch scores on a morning partly disrupted by rain and bad light.
Division One
Durham are 16 for none, having skittled Nottinghamshire, who won the toss, for 78 at the Emirates Durham ICG.
Yorkshire, put into bat, are 63 for two versus Middlesex at Headingley.
Surrey are 59 for two against Warwickshire, who won the toss, at Edgbaston.
Division Two

12:19pm - Rain halts play at Headingley where Yorkshire, whose spirits will surely be damped by events at Durham, are 63 for two and lunch will be taken. It's the same situation at Edgbaston and Wantage Road.

12:08pm - Harrison ousts Luke Fletcher to put Notts nine down and give Durham maximum bowling points in under two hours. There will be no play before lunch at Grace Road.
11:55am - Read's resistance is short lived as Jamie Harrison traps the skipper, who must be regretting his decision to bat first, in front before Usman Arshad bowls Andre Adams to make Notts 63 for eight.
Rain has sent the players scurrying at Edgbaston with Surrey 59 for two and promotion-chasers Northants break through when Andrew Hall has Sam Northeast caught behind.

11:39am - With Durham having bagged a second bonus point, batsmen are digging in, including Chris Read and Paul Franks who take Notts past 50, as the flow of wickets round the country halts. There is currently no play at Bristol and Leicester.

WICKET! @BunnyOnions now gets his 3rd & another Notts batsman goes caught behind, this time Hussey for 3. @TrentBridge 42-6.
— Durham Cricket Club (@DurhamCricket) September 17, 2013
11:13am - Barker has another lbw victim, Rory Burns, and bad light forces the players off at Bristol where Lancashire are 33 for two.
11:08am - This really is a dream start for Durham, who have Notts 41 for five with Onions pinning Riki Wessels in front before Rushworth likewise removes James Taylor and gets Samit Patel caught behind in the same over. Wessels' dismissal gives the hosts a first bonus point, so they need 20 more now to seal the title.
10:58am - Graham Onions has Michael Lumb caught behind, Gidman strikes again, bowling Ashwell Prince for a duck, and rain intervenes at Wantage Road with Kent nine for none.
10:45am - Yorkshire suffer two early blows as Corey Collymore traps Adam Lyth in front for nought and Tim Murtagh has Phil Jaques caught behind. Surrey lose Dominic Sibley lbw to Keith Barker and Masters has a second wicket, that of Will Bragg.
10:34am - Durham have the early breakthrough they craved as Chris Rushworth snares Steven Mullaney while Will Gidman has Lancashire's Paul Horton caught behind without scoring and Essex's David Masters bowls Gareth Rees for nought.
10:20am - Play between Leicestershire and Hampshire at Grace Road is officially delayed.
10:16am - Play starts at the Emirates Durham ICG where Durham need 21 points to be assured of the Division One crown. The other games are due to begin at 10:30am.
10:11am - Here is what's happening round the grounds:
Division One
Nottinghamshire choose to bat versus Durham at the Emirates Durham ICG.
Middlesex opt to bowl against Yorkshire at Headingley.
Warwickshire invite Surrey to bat at Edgbaston.
Division Two
Gloucestershire ask Lancashire to bat at Bristol.

Notts will bat first after their captain Chris Read won the toss.
9:45am - Good morning and welcome to ecb.co.uk's live text commentary on day one of the penultimate round of LV= County Championship games that could see Durham and Lancashire win the respective titles.

text: Glad I sold some at $1.90'ish...but wish i would have sold more. (Actually bought some back at $1.64'ish, yesterday.)Not sure how low this can go. Seems oversold enough, in the $1.50's...with the relatively stable cash flows and all (even if revenues continue to fall).It's not going to zero anytime soon...and getting more pension breathability allows for continued material debt paydowns, as far as the eye can see. Eventually, that would seem to "force" value creation here...unless revenues keep dropping 5% or more, year after year after year.

The city of Canyon is hoping Interstate 27 traffic will help create a new retail corridor on the east end of town.
To that end, the city has extended water and sewer lines east on Fourth Avenue all the way to the interstate in the hopes of luring motels, fast food, a truck stop or even residential development, City Manager Glen Metcalf said.
"We have annexed out to I-27," Metcalf said. "Our long-range planning indicated that area had the greatest potential for growth. We're ready to complement any development that might be interested in that area. We've had people looking at it; it just hasn't taken off."
Quail Creek, a housing development on the city's east side at Fourth Avenue, and The Greens in Hunsley Hills added new homes to the landscape, and Jynteewood Circle in Hunsley Hills is just getting under way.
As of November, the city of Canyon issued building permits totaling about $6.1 million, according to the city's code-enforcement office. That includes a new $1.5 million home for the Panhandle Higher Education Authority on 23rd Street at 14th Avenue, the city's most expensive permit for 1998.
The total also includes 24 homes valued at more than $3 million.
The city's population inched up from 12,766 in 1997 to 12,852 in 1998, according to estimates by the city of Amarillo. But since 1990, Canyon has grown by 1,487 people, an increase of 13 percent. The city's comprehensive plan projects that Canyon will continue to increase its population into the next millenium.
"A growth rate range of 3 percent to 5 percent was determined as being realistic for the next 20 years in Canyon," the city's comprehensive plan says. Based on those percentages, Canyon's residential population is projected to be between 21,600 and 31,800 people by the year 2015. However, Canyon's expansion could be curtailed somewhat because growth is cut off to the north, where Randall County's population is exploding.
The die was cast more than 20 years ago, when the City Commission voted 3-2 against annexing Canyon North at the time the neighborhood was designed.
As a result, Canyon North, a development of expensive brick homes that borders the city on the north, is served by water wells and septic tanks rather than city water and sewer.
"It's not feasible for us to go in and annex them now and provide water and sewer," Assistant City Manager Courtney Sharp said, estimating the cost of doing so at $4 million. "We've learned our lesson once by allowing Canyon North to go in," Sharp said. "I think if we had it to do all over again today, the outcome (of the City Commission vote) would be different."
Most of the growth in Randall County is between Amarillo and Canyon. At least five new subdivisions of 25 lots or more have sprung up in the county in the past couple of years.
The newest is a manufactured-home development called High Country Estates, 70 five-acre lots just north of Canyon North on the west side of Interstate 27. High Country, developed by Jon Lair, Freddie Lair and Ray Grimes, moved in its first home in December.
High Country Estates is attracting attention because it is closer to the pricey homes north of Canyon than any other manufactured-home development. Neighbors are watching closely as the manufactured-home expansion in Randall County inches nearer their own homes, some valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars.
A few even are asking city and county officials to do something about High Country Estates, which they say will bring down property values. They point to rundown trailer parks between Amarillo and Canyon as examples of what can - and has - gone wrong with developments that began years ago with new manufactured-homes.
"Nobody in Randall County is safe to buy an acre or five acres and put a nice home on it," said Hardy Coffman, who lives southwest of High Country. "Somebody will come in and put a mobile home on it."
Jon Lair said High Country's numerous deed restrictions will keep property values high in the neighborhood. And he said Canyon needs more affordable housing.
"I'm trying to accommodate people who can't afford $150,000 houses and would like to live in a new home," Lair said. "We think what we're doing here is the only thing that can be done in the $70,000 to $100,000 price range. And we've probably got the best water in the county right there.
"I think it's going to be a really nice place for nice people to live."

So let's say we wanted to copy this animation and have multiple arms. You are already familiar with graphic symbols so your first thought may be to just nest these in graphic symbols. And actually that's an excellent way to accomplish this task. To do that, you might expect to right- click your animation in the Timeline and choose some setting. But notice there isn't a setting to copy frames or anything. So what you need to do is actually right-click your bones on the Stage. So when I right-click the bones, there is an option to Convert to Symbol.
I am going to choose that option, I am going to choose a Graphic symbol for the Type and I will call this ArmAnimation. Then I will click OK. Now if I scrub the playhead I can see the animation as one frame as a graphic symbol on the main Timeline. Now all I have to do is copy and paste this instance and I have multiple arms. So I am going to copy it and I will create a new layer and paste. I will call this new layer arm2. I will create one more layer called arm3 that I will paste there as well.
Note that I am using Paste in Place and not the regular Paste command. So let's lock arm3 and that will be the top layer. Then I am going to lock arm and make sure all the other layers are locked as well. I am going to pull out arm2 a little bit. So I'll move arm2 out and then if I want to I can scale it in a little bit. So I can select it and with a Free Transform tool I can move the transformation point, scale it in just a little bit, and then move it a little bit more. Now I will go to the back arm, which is the layer that's just called arm.
Now I'll move that one over. I will do the same process where I shrink it so I will move the transformation point, scale it in. I am holding the Shift key by the way. That way I can constrain the proportions of my object and then I will move everything down. I am going to move the arm2 layer down just a little bit more and that looks good. So let's preview this animation in the Flash Player. Remember that's Ctrl+Enter on the PC and Command+Return on the Mac. Okay, so I have my animation of three arms, but this will look a lot better if I staggered the animation of the arms.
Remember that with graphic symbols you can do that. So all I have to do is select one of the arms, arm3 for example, and then go in the Properties panel and set the Looping property. So I will change the first frame to frame 20 for this one and then I will select the middle arm and change the first frame to frame 40. Now let's preview this animation in the Flash Player. So now we have a staggered animation of the arms moving.
So if you ever want to convert an armature to a symbol, make sure you right-click the bones on the Stage and choose Convert to Symbol. And once you have multiple animations, you can always stagger them in the Properties panel using the Looping settings.
