- Title
- Matching top-k answers of twig patterns in probabilistic XML
- Author(s)
- Ning, Bo; Liu, Chengfei; Yu, Jeffrey Xu; Wang, Guoren; Li, Jianxin
- Abstract
- The flexibility of XML data model allows a more natural representation of uncertain data compared with the relational model. The top-k matching of a twig pattern against probabilistic XML data is essential. Some classical twig pattern algorithms can be adjusted to process the probabilistic XML. However, as far as finding answers of the top-k probabilities is concerned, the existing algorithms suffer in performance, because many unnecessary intermediate path results, with small probabilities, need to be processed. To cope with this problem, we propose a new encoding scheme called PEDewey for probabilistic XML in this paper. Based on this encoding scheme, we then design two algorithms for finding answers of top-k probabilities for twig queries. One is called ProTJFast, to process probabilistic XML data based on element streams in document order, and the other is called PTopKTwig, based on the element streams ordered by the path probability values. Experiments have been conducted to study the performance of these algorithms.

I spent some time this evening on the PTR checking out the new increased pet leveling speed. This is a summary of what I found, in case you don't want to read the long liveblogged post about it. :>
- The XP that pets need to level has been reduced — from 25% to 16.75% of the XP that a player of the same level requires. In other words, pets require 33% less XP to level on the PTR.
- Pets still do not earn XP when the hunter completes a quest.
- Pets still do not earn XP from kills that are grey to the hunter.
- The XP-per-kill that a pet receives shows no changes between the PTR and the live realms.

PAMPA — Johnny Dale Lewis, 59, of Pampa died Thursday, Aug. 2, 2012, in Dallas.
Services will be at 10 a.m. Monday in First Baptist Church with Johnny Plum officiating. Burial will be in Fairview Cemetery. Arrangements are by Carmichael-Whatley Funeral Directors of Pampa.
John was born April 13, 1953, in Plainview and was raised in Petersburg, where he attended school. Following graduation, John attended Southwest Business College in Plainview, where he became a court reporter. He married Rebecca O'Neal on Aug. 17, 1979, in Pampa.
John spent most of his adult life working in the oil field. He worked for Samson Drilling and Key Energy as an independent oil field consultant. Prior to that, he worked for Baker Oil Tools. He was a member of Faith Advent Christian Fellowship of Pampa, where he served as a deacon. John thought the world of his three boys, and he loved spending any time he could with his only granddaughter, Charlotte.
John was a thinker with a dry but playful sense of humor. He enjoyed playing video games and reading. When he was home, he was inseparable from his faithful pet chihuahua, Snickers.
John loved the Lord, and he always tried to think of others before himself. He became an organ donor with the hope that his contribution would bring others the hope of life.
He was preceded in death by his father, Johnny Lewis of Hot Springs, Ark.
Survivors include his wife, Rebecca; three sons, Seth Lewis of Pampa, Jacob Lewis and Christopher Lewis and wife Gina, all of Amarillo; a granddaughter, Charlotte; his mother, Joyce Holley of Mooresville, N.C.; his mother-in-law, Edna O'Neal of Pampa; a brother, Jerry Lewis and wife Linda of Pampa; three sisters, Terri Herrington and husband Dan of Boerne, Tanaya Krauss and husband Craig of Mooresville and Suzie McConnell of Groton, Conn.; two sisters-in-law, Deborah Bailey and husband Johnny and Kathy Johnson and husband Tim, all of Pampa; 15 nieces and nephews, Matt, Mark and Luke Bailey, Joshua, Jarrett and Patrick Parsons, Jason Herrington, Stacie Barker, Krystin Price, Kayden Mims, Blake Frye, Tara Jackson, Jamie Morris, Nathan Davis and Robyn Wing; 11 great-nieces and great-nephews, Jordan, Jadyn, Courtney, Addison, Kinsley, Lane, Alex, Ryan, Ava, Madison and Nataleigh; and former exchange students, Richard and Robson Rodrigues of Birigui, Brazil, whom he thought of as sons.
The family will be at 1919 Chestnut.
The family suggests memorials be to register as organ donors.

Ok. Somebody here told me that I should learn to factor polynomials by the method of "completing the square" which I had no idea of, so I resourced to wikipedia, which was quite usefull. Now, as my book doesn't have answers for pair numbered excercises I want you to check this for me and tell me if I'm going the right way.
Original problem
We'll leave that out for a while...
...and then we bring it ( ) back in place again.
In my textbook and class we use perfecting the square to solve quadratic equations, so I have no idea why they told you that you should factor by perfecting the square. To me it is not as efffective for factoring with fractions. Well, it is effective, but just a pain in the butt. It is easier to divide by the co-effecient of a, to make it 1, perfect the square and solve for a, but that is just my opinion.
If we use perfecting the square to find a, the answer is -1/4
BTW this is already a perfect square trinomial, so you if you identified it in the beginning, there would be no need to perfect the square. My professor and textbook told us to only perfect the square, when a trinomial can no longer be factored, because it is faster.

A weekend of celebrations to mark Africa Day got underway in cities around the country today, with free festivals, film screenings, concerts and children's events designed to celebrate the diversity and potential of the African continent.
In Dublin, Africa Day will be marked by a free family festival at George's Dock which will run throughout the weekend. At 5.30pm today, Tánaiste Eamon Gilmore, Minister for Trade and Development Joe Costello and Lord Mayor of Dublin, Andrew Montague will launch the festival, along with Kenyan Ambassador to Ireland, Ms. Catherine Muigai Mwangi
Speaking ahead of the launch today, Tánaiste Eamon Gilmore said:
"Today is Africa Day and I am delighted to launch a weekend of events around the country to celebrate African identities and cultures and the richness of the relationships between Ireland and that great continent.
"I strongly believe that African countries, individually and working together in the African Union, can create a great future. Africa is a changing continent, with high economic growth rates and rapid development in terms of education and industry. Real challenges exist, but the African story right now is one of great energy and dynamism.
"African governments and communities are determined to overcome the challenges of poverty and hunger and move towards a new era of inclusive economic growth. My Department's Africa Strategy is designed to support this momentum, promoting a mature relationship between Ireland and Africa which encompasses strengthened political and economic links that build upon our historical missionary and development ties."
In George's Dock, Dublin this weekend, stalls from over 20 different African countries will provide food samples and showcase traditional costumes, arts and crafts. A range of workshops on travel and the contribution of the African Diaspora will be on offer, while children of all ages will be entertained at the kids' corner. Representatives from Irish Aid, the Government's programme for overseas development, and NGOs will also host a range of fun, interactive activities designed to inform families about their work in Africa.
Cork city will mark Africa Day with an eclectic line-up of music, dance and arts from 1.30pm at Bishop Lucey Park tomorrow. A host of African cultures will be highlighted throughout the day, with ethnic food, entertainment and workshops on offer.
Galway city will tonight celebrate all things African with an intercultural evening of music, songs and cultural performances at the Commercial Boat Club in Woodquay. The Galway African Film Festival begins at Nuns Island Arts Centre today and runs through to Sunday.
Limerick's weekend of African-themed festivities also begins today with activities including drumming sessions, children's storytelling, a 'Charity Voices of Africa' concert. Other events over the weekend include Limerick Sportsfest, 'May Music in the Park' and a Family Fun Day in the Daghda Space on Sunday.
All events are being supported by Irish Aid, in partnership with City Councils and others in each of the locations.

What is in this article?:
- Krispy Kreme plans to accelerate unit growth
- Resources for smaller franchisees
The company is targeting expansion from 243 domestic units today to 400 by 2017.
Resources for smaller franchisees
Some of the larger multiunit franchisees showing renewed interest in Krispy Kreme might have an easier time securing growth capital, while smaller regional operators might struggle more for financing, Morgan said. But the company would explore ways it could deploy some of its more than $60 million in cash on hand to enable franchise growth, including an equipment financing package for franchisees.
"The state of financing for franchisee development kind of depends on who you are in the franchise world," chief financial officer Doug Muir said. "But my sense is that the money is out there, and particularly when I think we're at the point now, we can generate what appear to be some pretty strong economic returns on the investments."
Krispy Kreme would also prepare to increase company-owned unit growth as well in the near term, Morgan added, though securing real estate is a major challenge that the company first had to address through its staffing. Two new executives have joined the company in the past three months to help with real estate site selection, he said.
Opening more corporate locations, very likely in new markets, would be a prudent use of Krispy Kreme's free cash flow, Muir said. "Our first choice, given the ROIs we think we can get, would be to pick up the pace of company-store investment," he said, "and that could mean, and probably does mean, more geography than we have discussed in detail so far."
The company also expects all of the nearly 100 domestic company-owned units to have new point-of-sale hardware and software installed by the end of the year. Franchisees controlling about 60 of the 150 domestic franchised units indicated to Krispy Kreme that they want to begin implementing the new system as soon as possible, Muir said.
"It was well-tested on the front end and so far has been remarkably glitch-free," he said. "Part of the software that could be business-changing — for example, pay-by-phone or loyalty programs — are only now being white-boarded and wouldn't be implemented into the software until 2014 at the earliest. … But I can tell you, the marketing people are really excited about the potential of that."
Krispy Kreme operates 93 company-owned units and franchises another 150 locations in the United States, and it franchises another 546 restaurants in 21 international markets.

Dominique Leone is still writing
If you, like me, have been wondering about Dominique Leone's recent low profile over at Pitchfork, have no fear! He has a new monthly column, "Out Music," the second edition of which was published yesterday. There's good stuff in there, including reviews of reissues of News From Babel, Koenjihyakkei, and Faust, plus a gratuitous Art Bears reference thrown in for good measure. And if you missed last month's column, check it out, too, as therein lies even more interesting weird-music coverage (and Dominique's entertaining ramblings).
In other news, it looks like Masada is finally calling it a day, which is probably for the best as it might allow Zorn to focus on his other projects. Hopefully it will also mean his $500,000 Macarthur grant won't go to issuing the 500th through 600th Masada live recordings. (I mean, I really like this band, but in terms of documentation, only King Crimson overdoes it more.)

'Survivor 2012: Philippines' Premiere - How To Blind Side Yourself
Immunity challenge time and everyone shows up wearing war paint. Jeff says there are two immunity idols, but only the first tribe to finish gets the fire-making kit while the second tribe gets flint. The three tribes are split into teams of two. The first pair have to run, tied together, to a spot where they will release two paddles. Two more players will paddle out to release a submerged chest and bring it back, and the final two will assemble a puzzle from its contents.
When the teams strategize, Russell highhandedly decides which of his tribe will do which task, despite their protests. No one is happy with his plan, and it shows when they begin the task.
Kalabaw are neck and neck with Tandang, but finally beat them for first place, winning immunity and the fire-making tools. Tandang, in second, gets the flint and immunity. Matsing, in third place, is heading to Tribal Council, where someone will be voted out and sent home.
Russell tells Jeff he'll have to take 'some' of the blame for Matsing's loss, since he made the decision of who would do what, but there's always next time. Jeff says there's a next time for five of the team, but not all six, since someone will be voted out at Tribal Council.
Back at the Matsing camp, Russell tries to pep talk by assuring the tribe that all challenges are brutal, and that they'll have to dig deep to win. Suddenly, Zane pipes up that he's the one that blew the challenge, because he couldn't pull his weight on his leg of the trial, having just quit smoking the day he left for the Philippines. Everyone looks at Zane in shock – why would he be asking the tribe to vote him off, after just one lost challenge?
Zane interviews that his words were a ruse, to see if he is indeed running the show, a psychological mind game. He hopes the tribe would rather have him as a hindrance, than keep Russell.
Well, Russell's pretty happy about Zane's words, and the rest of the tribe are thrilled that Zane has picked himself. After all, they may not like Russell, but they don't want to go home early either! Angie and Roxie are still steaming that Russell made them do the puzzle portion of the challenge, although both had insisted puzzles were not their strength.
Angie would prefer Zane stay, so she confronts him, asking him why he's giving up. Zane is happy to hear that she will vote for Russell at Tribal. Malcolm also wants Zane to stay, and Zane begins to think that the tribe could blindside Russell, especially when Zane hints that Russell already has the immunity idol. Malcolm tells Denise they are 95% sure that Russell has an idol.
Russell interviews that he's pretty sure he's safe at the vote, but you never know – although he'd vowed not to pull a leadership trip, he went right into 'Chief' mode, thinking he had to make all of the decisions. Leadership kills, dude, and he may have made his first mistake at the challenge. He could well be voted out tonight.
Jeff welcomes everyone to Tribal Council. He asks Denise how she feels about playing with returning players. She says she had mixed feelings, but it's been an asset and a gift to have someone with experience help them through their first three days. Zane tells Jeff that Russell has been like an onion; the first few layers are great, but too deep in, and you'll start to cry. The more you peel back, the more you understand how much of a better player you're up against.
Russell agrees that Zane's words are both complimentary and a warning, in that the tribe perceive him as a strong player that they will have to eliminate. He admits to making a mistake in dictating decision making at the failed challenge. Malcolm agrees with Russell's words. Roxie says Russell's demeanor threw her into a subordinate role, and Angie adds that, despite her ability to run, she was asked to puzzle solve, and told that if they lost it would be her fault.
Again, Zane insists that they should vote him out, because he's the weakest. Russell still thinks they might boot him. Voting begins. Russell votes for Zane. Zane votes for Russell. Everyone else votes Zane, who becomes the first person voted out of Survivor Philippines by a 5-1 vote. Jeff snuffs Zane's torch, tosses a piece of flint to Denise, and shoos the tribe out of Tribal.
Surprisingly, Zane can't believe the tribe really voted him out, after he told them to. "I honestly thought I had this whole game figured out," says Zane. Which leaves me wondering which game he was thinking about, because Zane blindsided himself.
In terms of shaking up the camp, Zane might have been an asset, but as a self-admitted loser, he's not a big loss to the tribe. What do you think? Should the tribe have blindsided Russell? Let us know, in the comments below. And I'll be back next week with my recap of Survivor: Philippines.

The El Monte Police Officer's Association Enjoys Christmas in July

El Monte –
On Saturday July 20th the Moose Lodge hosted their annual Christmas in July dinner and fundraising event. There was a choice of a Turkey or Ham dinner for $3.50 which included dessert. More than 200 people showed up to enjoy dinner and support this fundraising effort.
All the money raised goes to Mooseheart. Mooseheart is a facility located 38 miles west of Chicago that has provided care for needy children for the past 100 years. Children that qualify live in one of several residences at the facility. Not only are they cared for, but Mooseheart has a fully accredited school that provides education from kindergarten through high school. Since the inception of Mooseheart, July 27, 1913, it has taken care of and housed more than 12,000 children.
The El Monte Police Officer's Association joined the festivities and made a $500.00 donation to support the efforts of the Moose and their endeavor to take care of needy children. "The El Monte Moose has contributed so much to our community in support of others. Nancy Kennon has been a long time and dedicated individual who has worked tirelessly as a member of the Moose. She shares the same passion for others as a member of the El Monte Police Officer's Association Auxiliary. The Moose and the Association share the same values when it comes to taking care of those in need, especially children", said Richard Thomas, the Association's Executive Director.

Today I joined the 'skinny' jeans club. The one where membership requires you to have a pair ('that' pair) of slim-fit jeans that you really love but have to lie down on the bed to pull on, and wiggle (and wiggle) and suck in your tummy to zip up; only to spend all day with a wedgie from front-to-back and muffin-tops* poking out the top, wishing you had never bothered…
I have always fitted in to my slim-fit jeans. Today was not a happy day.
On top of that, I wore my jeans out on a clothes shopping expedition. Stupid, but I suppose that's what happens when you're not sure how club membership works… so not only did I have to keep pulling them on and off, I had to remind myself that the clothes I was trying on would fit me when I "returned to 'normal'". Then I had to work out how that was going to happen!
To be fair, and as my partner so kindly pointed out, I haven't been able to walk around let alone exercise for nearly four months due to a broken ankle, and that my clothes typically don't have any room for error…. yes, I have a bit of a thing for skinny jeans and pencil skirts… but "No room for error?!, I exclaimed. "I shouldn't need any room for error! My raw / vegan / plant-based 'diet' should keep my at my optimal weight and I shouldn't need 'fat' jeans and 'skinny jeans. That's all too complicated."
Great theory. It works. I've tested it. But it only works when you're eating raw / vegan / plant-based foods – which I haven't been for the last few weeks**. I have been eating gluten, and soy, and sugars and even some cheese. Gross! I'm not even sure how I got to this place but I don't like it. Not only do I now have 'those jeans', my skin is breaking out, my mood is all over the place, my tummy is unhappy, and I'm not sleeping well. Well at least not when I'm supposed to be in bed – I sleep just fine at my desk every day around 3:30pm.
So, back to the how I'm going to 'fix' it question. I'm embarking on Kimberly Snyder's Beauty Detox. I'm soooo utterly hopeless at following these types of things but I bought the book a while ago because I wanted the recipe for her Glowing Green Smoothie and thought I'd check out he rest of the goodies. A lot of the up-front content on plant-based foods etc. was not new to me but I really loved her explanation of food pairing and the detail she provided on why raw vegans don't always achieve their desired results. I'm excited about food again. Finally. And I now have two feet with which to dance around my kitchen and prepare it!
To be fair, I'm not posting Kim's recipes but will keep you updated on my adventures and any new recipes I find that fit in the guidelines – and I will provide more detail on the guidelines in future blogs. Would love to hear from anyone else who has tried this or would like to join me!
* Please note, I did wear a long, loose-fitting top so neither my muffins nor my wedgie were actually on display
** Before raw vegan I was not 30 ;)

Like P30 V1 but with LEM trigger pull of approximately 7.3 pounds (32.5N)
A recent HK pistol design, the P30
is a modern police and security pistol that combines function and
safety. Ergonomic features include a special grip frame with
interchangeable backstrap inserts and lateral plates, allowing the
pistol to be individually adapted to any user. Ambidextrous controls
include dual slide releases, magazine release levers. Variants with a
conventional double-action/single action trigger have a serrated
decocking button located on the rear of the frame.
Picatinny rail molded into the front of the frame makes mounting
lights, laser aimers, or other accessories easy and convenient. An
advanced loaded chamber indicator is easily seen and felt, and
positively indicates a loaded chamber. The P30 has a self-decocking,
double action hammer with a firing pin block safety that eliminates the
need for a manual safety.
tested, the P30 has already been adopted by European police agencies.
Excellent weight and balance make the P30 naturally pointable, easy to
control, and accurate to shoot. An open notch rear sight with luminous
(non-radioactive) contrast points allows for fast and accurate target
acquisition, even under poor lighting conditions.

According to Deputy Lt. Ronnie Jones, the shooting took place at about 1:31 a.m. in the Blueberry Hill Subdivision just west of the city.
Deputies Cecil Daniels and Taylor Clevenger arrived in the 200 block of North Treptow Street to discover a man who had been shot repeatedly outside a residence there.
Information about the incident is limited at this time, but the shooting allegedly was a result of a argument between the suspect and the victim.
Bee County Sheriff Carlos Carrizales Jr. and additional deputies arrived within minutes to render assistance in the investigation.
The suspect was described as a Hispanic male in his late 20's and investigators are still developing leads as to the suspect's identity and whereabouts.
The victim was rushed to an area hospital for treatment and is said to be in serious but stable condition.
Futher updates on the incident are expected later in the week.

Celebrating 80 Years of Frankenstein
Ben Bussey introduces Brutal As Hell's 80th anniversary tribute to Frankenstein.
November 21st 1931 – i.e. 80 years ago today – saw the theatrical release (not that there was any other kind back then) of Universal's Frankenstein, and popular culture has never been the same since. Yes, that is an absolute, inarguable fact. So often we deal in arguing the relative merits of a film, what is or is not significant and why, but in this instance there really is no debate. The horror genre, the horror film, and indeed cinema overall would not exist as we know it without Frankenstein. Sure, the German Expressionists had given us the nightmarish visions of The Cabinet of Dr Caligari and Nosferatu; Lon Chaney had his celebrated macabre collaborations with Todd Browning in the silent era, and Browning had subsequently brought the first talking horror picture to the silver screen with Dracula. But it was Frankenstein which – not unlike the good doctor himself – brought all the pieces together and charged them with life, creating an entirely new entity in doing so.
Let's be candid: Browning's Dracula is far from a masterpiece. Despite its star turn from Bela Lugosi and the unforgettable imagery of the early scenes, it rapidly descends into stagebound tedium, blandly performed, severly lacking the gall to let things get truly sinister. The key problem, or so it would seem, is that Browning was just not comfortable directing dialogue: note that the most powerful, memorable sequences are those with little or no speech involved. Nor was Browning alone in this. What the movies really needed, then, were directors who did know how to get great speaking performances out of their actors. Enter James Whale, whose experience of directing, acting and set design for the stage were pivotal to making the film what it is. (Look out for an article discussing Whale's work in detail later on.)
Frankenstein proved that a tale of the supernatural could be handled seriously, with real gravitas and pathos. Boris Karloff (AKA William Henry Pratt, and/or '?') ended a career of obscurity and became a superstar with his iconic turn as the Monster, or Creature, as he is said to have preferred to call it. His performance, Jack Pierce's make-up design and Whale's direction are quite rightly the most celebrated components of the film, but too often sadly overlooked is Colin Clive as Dr. Frankenstein himself. With his jet-black, side-parted fringe draping over his perpetually furrowed brow and his drive to rebel against the order of the day, we might regard him as the emo that arrived too early. Such jovialities aside, Clive's performance is every bit as wonderful as Karloff's, in almost a mirror opposite capacity; where Karloff is mute, uncomprehending and ultimately innocent, Clive is articulate, obsessive and for the most part unrepentant in his compulsion to break the laws of science and morality to realise his vision. Truly, his is one of the first great speaking performances in film, with many memorable lines, from the menacing "Crazy, am I?", to the contemplative "Have you never wanted to do anything that was dangerous?", to the deranged cry for which he will always be remembered: "It's alive!" And let's not forget Dwight Frye as Fritz (often incorrectly remembered as Igor), the performance against which film history has judged every subsequent hunchbacked assistant of a scientist with lax morals and sadistic temperament.
And the sheer number of unforgettable images: the opening grave robbery, in the cemetery where every tombstone stands at a forty-five degree angle under the painted backdrop of a cloud-strewn sky; the remote castle, bleak and uninviting in the dark stormy night; the laboratory, with its deluge of bizarre devices crackling with electricity within that same Gothic castle, a headlong collision of the futuristic and the medieval; the bandaged body of the creature winched into the air as kites fly into the storm to catch the lightning; the haunting reveal of the creature itself, alive at last; the lakeside encounter with the little girl who neither judges nor fears the strange man she meets, to her peril; and the final confrontation between creature and creator within the burning mill. (Hmm – did I just indavertently re-enact Lord Byron's opening speech from Bride of Frankenstein?) All these scenes and more have been endlessly imitated these past eighty years, but we'd be hard pushed to say they have ever truly been surpassed.
On top of all this, Frankenstein and its sequel stand firm as proof of how a cinematic adaptation of an existing work can stand up as an entirely separate work of art in its own right. As the screenplay was adapted by Garrett Fort and Francis Edward Faragoh (probably with contributions from Whale) from a treatment by John L. Balderston, which itself was modelled not on Mary Shelley's novel but Peggy Webling's stageplay, it is little wonder that the film winds up bearing scant resemblance to the book; we might even say that Frankenstein is itself a Frankenstein… yes, I know, it's a corny analogy, but it rings true. It also does nothing to impede the film's resounding success. This really is worth emphasising, as nowadays we seem so obsessed with loyalty to the text; whenever a book is adapted for the screen, all we hear is fans demanding it must not stray from the source material, and more often than not filmmakers insisting they will not do so. It must be said, this approach is not necessarily a good thing. So often, it results in films weighed down with excessive exposition and overwritten dialogue which might work on the page but comes off awkward and unnatural; think Twilight, The Da Vinci Code, the last forty five minutes of Return of the King. In not closely following Mary Shelley's work, Frankenstein winds up being a film that is entirely distinct, with many merits which are entirely its own. It's much the way that Kubrick approached Stephen King's The Shining so many years later, and there's definitely something to be said for this approach.
Yes, Frankenstein is a groundbreaking, extraordinary film that still stands up today, and should never be forgotten. With that in mind, we're marking the 80th anniversary here at Brutal As Hell with a few special pieces on the subject. Keep an eye out in the next couple of days for explorations of the film and its legacy, how it has shaped horror film history, how it has shaped popular culture overall. We hope that you will join us in this heartfelt tribute. We think it will thrill you. It may shock you. It might even horrify you…

That was an excellent article! Frankie is my favorite of the Universal classic "creatures".

Use this fact to find the sign of the slope of the antiderivative at x = -4.
Since the smallest possible triangle will obviously touch the circle with all three sides, make sure you've drawn the base of the triangle as touching the circle, too. Draw a radius line down to this intersection point, labelling as "r".
Draw in the rest of the altitude line for the triangle, labelling the rest of the height as "h", so the total altitude is h + r.
Where you go from here may depend on how much you remember from geometry. What are your thoughts? How far can you get?
Please be complete. Thank you!

Connecting to MySQL with C# and ODBC
In this tutorial we will see how a .NET application can connect to a MySQL server and perform queries on the database. The application uses the MyODBC driver to establish an ODBC connection to the server.

Setting up the MyODBC driver
Before starting you need to download and install MyODBC on the machine that will act as the client (the machine that will connect to the server). Here is what happens if you run the application and try to connect without having MyODBC installed and configured:
Download MyODBC 3.51 or download from MySQL.com
After installing, open Data Sources (ODBC) from the Control Panel. Click Add... and the following window shows up:
Fill the TextBoxes with information about your MySQL server. The important fields are Server, User and Password. Click Test and with a little bit of luck, you will see the following message:
You can leave the database field as it is, or you can choose a default database which the driver will connect to. Also, you don't need to deal with the other tabs of the window.
After clicking Ok to save the information, you will now see our newly created Data Source in the list:
Now we're ready to build the application and run it.
Creating a .NET application that connects to a MySQL database
Download the project
Note that the code is written using .NET 2.0 and the project is created in Visual Studio 2005. However, this won't stop you from using the code inside Visual Studio 2003 with .NET 1.1, because the code doesn't need any changes between versions of the .NET Framework.
Let's look at the most important pieces in our code.
Here we declared an ODBC connection, command and data reader. We will need all these to connect, query and read data from the MySQL Server. The ConStr variable is a normal string variable that holds the connection string, of course, we could have passed the connection string directly without using an additional variable, but the code is more organized this way.
Now let's have a look in the click event of the Connect button:
The connection string is initialized here, using data from the TextBoxes on the form. Note the version of the MySQL ODBC driver, inside. Carefully enclosing in try/catch blocks, the lines that open the connection, we change the connection state of the ODBC connection to Open. We first check to make sure the connection is not already open.
Now to list the tables inside the database:
We first check the state of the connection. If it is closed, we don't want to try to execute a command on the MySQL Server. Then we execute the SHOW TABLES query, which is the MySQL query for getting a list of tables in the selected database. Using a DataReader we pass through each table and display it inside the txtLog TextBox.
To keep this tutorial simple, I haven't added any other commands to be executed on the MySQL server, however you can perform any operation on the server. You can create new databases, select values, create tables, add values, edit values, delete databases and any other operation that you can think of, that MySQL supports through a query.
Also I should mention that even though this is a Windows application, the ODBC connection method works great with web applications too. That means you can easily build ASP.NET applications that use a MySQL database.
Here is the application running on Windows Vista:

If you were to distribute this app, there would be the issue of the end-user requiring the ODBC drivers.

Version of ODBC driver in code must be the same as your installed version of ODBC!!! If you have 5.1, simple change number of version in code and will work it!;)

G2 Ergonomics Throttle Cam System...Anyone tried it?

I purchased a WorksConnection Aluminum Throttle tube for my '02 and raced it for nearly 3 years. Sold it but kept the throttle tube and installed it on my '05. To make a long story short, the side surfaces of the cam have worn out against the throttle housings (both sides) enough to allow the return cable to make its way between the cam and the housing, causing the throttle to stick. During racing (for sure NOT the time to experiece this), it was sticking all the time BUT (good news) it never didn't allow me to shut off the throttle thanks to the push/pull design. So, lessons learned: inspect them for any signs of wear on the sides of the cam where it rubs/wears against the stock housings. I would be very leary of the "cams being a little narrower". Inspect how the return cable rides on the cam as you mentioned. My wore-out one showed perfect tell-tail wear signs of rolling off the cam into the crack formed between it and the housing = jammed!
Hope this helps

Sam also told me that if I wasn't satisfied I can get a complete refund.
This is going on my 450X to keep it from pulling my arms off accelerating out of corners in the tight stuff. The 450X can get you out of position in a hurry with the power it has. I am also hoping fatigue will be less on my arms.
Posted May 16, 2005 - 02:41 PM
Yep. I got the new cams in the mail on Saturday. They also came with a self addressed envelope, I assume to return the original cams. I sent them back... I guess he wants to know that these faulty cams are not going to be used and cause someone to get hurt. The new cams are much wider and perfectly machined to fit inside my throttle housing. I now know the throttle sticking problem will be cured. I couldn't be happier! Thanks Sam. This is a great company to deal with!
Spoke with Sam and the problem has been fixed, he even sent out the fixed cams to the posters above to correct any issues.

i have been hearing about these and they sound like a very good idea,
They just came out with a CAM 300 as well now
my friend chriss from Daystar , has them comming for his bike as well,
do they have a set up for making the throttle twist shorter as well,
my poor destroyed wrist dosent like to twist the throttle as far as you have to to get the thing opened
is that what the 300 is for maybe
Posted December 05, 2005 - 02:33 PM
The 400 cam turns the beast into a very manageable bike in the tough stuff, approx. 5 minutes work and you swap back to the stock cam and it gets all the instant boost back. Very nice product and well made. I swap cams based on the riding conditions I anticipate for the day.
I have not had a stuck throttle (yet!) and I sure do not want one!!!! so I will also call G2 about exchanging to the updated width cams. On the initial order, the enthusiasim of the owner convinced me to try it. He really believes in his product, and so do I (and everyone that has tried my bike!!)
Posted December 05, 2005 - 02:34 PM
HERE is their website. I would think the 300 cam is somewhere in between the 400 and 200 cams. Kelstr, none of the cams that came with mine (100,200,400) shorten the overall pull. They all give about the same overall as stock, they just modify how much cable is pulled in the first 1/4 of the twist. For instance, with the 100 (stock or close to it) cam, when you twist 1/4 of the overall twist, 1/4 of the cable is pulled. With the 400 (least aggressive) cam, When you twist 1/4 of the overall twist, only about 1/8 or so of the cable is pulled, then the more you twist from there, the cable pull actually increases compared to stock, to give you full throttle at the same overall twist distance. Clear as mud? Basically, the less aggressive cams just make the throttle less sensitive to rider input. I tried the 400 and thought it was too slow, but might work for extremely sloppy, greasy conditions. I usually use the middle (200) cam. I like the extra control it gives me on slick, tight corners.

my wrist is like the 400 then stock because it dose not pivit at the joint like it should and i have to overgrip and use my arm and i end up with my elbow to low and i loose control,
so i need to really shorten the throw up quite abit

WASHINGTON — The federal budget deficit for the just-ended 2012 fiscal year shrank by $207 billion from the year before but still marked its fourth straight year above $1 trillion, Congress' budget referee estimated yesterday.
The deficit equaled about 7 percent of U.S. economic output, down from 8.7 percent in 2011, 9 percent in 2010 and 10.1 percent in 2009, but it was greater than in any other year since 1947, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said.
Economists generally consider a deficit that exceeds 3 percent of gross domestic product to be untenable in the long term.
The CBO said a $75 billion September surplus helped to hold the fiscal 2012 deficit to $1.1 t rillion, compared with a $1.3 trillion deficit in fiscal 2012.
The September surplus was just the second month in the black for the government since September 2008. The September data was buoyed by strong quarterly corporate income tax payments and $7 billion from the sale of shares in American International Group.
The Treasury is to release final figures next week.

How did Evergreen prepare you for your professional life?
Evergreen cradled me as I became a scientist and a better student. Also the volunteer firefighter experience, student health medical assistant work-study job, and serving as a student leader (if that were ever possible at Evergreen!) all helped prepare me for a medical career. I was the only grad that year to be applying for medical school, so it was a huge relief when I finally got that acceptance letter from the UW. Needless to say, I was not the typical medical student. I was the only one in my medical school class to take the medical ethics course, which was full of students of various other health professions. I designed a three-month-long independent study enabling me to be at sixteen different outpatient specialty clinics on a rotating basis. I received honors in Geriatrics and Rehab Medicine. My practice reflects my values, I hope. I schedule usually no more than twelve patients per day, and actively discriminate in favor of the super-elderly. I make house calls, ride my bike to work (yes, even most winter days) and I volunteer in leadership at our community hospital, covered hospital "call" for our local free clinic, served four years as medical director at our town's oldest nursing home, and cheerfully nag CEOs to change policies in favor of a smaller carbon footprint, healthier and more local food, bike paths, access to care for veterans, better communication/collaboration between doctors and between doctors and patients. The work will never end, but I don't want it to. Evergreen gave me exactly what I wanted: meaningful work. I can't imagine ever fully retiring, which is as it should be. It is a privilege and a joy to practice medicine, even in this difficult time.

Agency: Scholz & Friends, Hamburg.
really beautiful…. very rarely does an ad cross the borders of being art. this one is gorgeous.
Yeah, the guy deep in thought in front of his computer is really quite special. A for effort, that's for sure.
Fucking great. Excellent.
Reminds me of the movie "Office Space".
Reminds me of Bruce Almighty when Bruce makes the whole room fill with post-it notes
Reminds me that this could be a lot simpler.
Hehe, Office Space now that's a great movie.
I reckon this ad does work specially for that product. But i realized that the main reason why i took those extra seconds to analyse the print was to see the " art " and craft it envolved, then came the reason.
It happens.
fucking great! I think its an ad from Scholz & Friends Hamburg, isn´t it?
All I can say is that wouldve been a hell of a lot of fun to make that scene and shoot it….. maybe not so much fun to pull it all down.

SavageDesigns - Custom Helmet Painting
Getting Started
Custom Helmet Painting is subjectively created for each individual. We need to speak to you, discuss designs you've seen, colors you're considering, ideas you'd like to implement, etc. This requires lots of thought on your side and a subsequent telephone conversation with us. Feel free to contact us for initial information at: firstname.lastname@example.com but please realize we will need to speak to you at some point. Rush services are available for an additional charge. And definitely call us for further information.
For best results, we prefer beginning with a new, white helmet. That said, we can work with your current, used helmet regardless of color or decal content for an additional charge. Please do not perform any advance prep work, such as sanding or molding removal. You may actually harm the integrity of your helmet and we may have to charge to "undo" your work!
New Helmets
We stock most current models of Shoei, Bell, Arai helmets. Please note that helmet fit is critical to safety. Make sure you've actually tested the EXACT model and size you want us to paint. This custom work is obviously not refundable.
Pricing is completely dependent on the design, colors and materials you'd like us to use. What you see on this site provides with a guideline, although the exact helmets described here are available for that exact price. Most likely you will want some level of personalization and pricing will vary accordingly.
The first step is of course to have a helmet. If you provide one then all we require to get started is a 50% deposit. If you don't have a helmet and you want us to acquire one for you, the helmet will have to be purchased 100% and then we would require the 50% deposit for the actual customization. We accept Visa, Master Card, check, or money order. Contact us for international orders.

- Conference date: 19–23 July 2010
- Location: Mexico City, (Mexico)
In this paper we study a gas of ultra light bosons as a candidate for dark matter in a higher dimensional framework. We briefly introduce the formalism of brane theory (BN) and and relevant aspects of ultra light bosonic dark matter (ULBDM) with the aim to combine both ideas in a single model. In this model, we assume two branes (visible and hidden brane) inside of the bulk and study the behavior of ULBDM in the hidden brane for an observer in the visible one. We reformulate the Friedmann equations for our Universe and the Friedmann equation concerning to the hidden brane. Thus, we can stablish the mutual interaction between the branes through the Hubble parameter, which measures the rate of expansion of our Universe. Finllay, we discuss that the hypothesis of ULBDM in the context of the braneworld theory is an interesting idea regarding the nature of dark matter.

Hundreds help out in swan census
Around 200 volunteers braved the heat today to help count and check the swans at Abbotsbury Swannery in Dorset. The volunteers helped move the swans out of the water onto the shore where a vet could check them over.
Abbotsbury is the world's only managed colony of mute swans. They are checked twice a year.
Swan census underway in Dorset
Hundreds of volunteers are helping to round up swans at Abbotsbury Swannery in Dorset. The purpose of the round-up is to check the health of the swans and takes place twice a year.
Abbotsbury is the world's only managed colony of mute swans. Many of the volunteers are in small boats or canoes and they herd the swans out of the water and in to holding pens so the vets can take a look at them.

Ironically I figured it out looking at someone else question. At the bottom of their post was the formula integral v dv = uv - integral vdu so it all makes sense now.
Thanks to everyone who viewed my post.
I am looking at an example in my text and don't understand how they get from step A to step B
Evaluate double integral y sin (xy) dy dx - x is 0 to 1 and y is 0 to pi
let u = y so du = dy
let dv = sin (xy) dy so v = -cos(xy)/x
so here is where I get lost
integral (0 to pi) y sin (xy) dy = -ycos(xy)/x for y= 0 to y=pi +
1/x (integral 0 to pi cos(xy)) dy
I understand the first part but it is the second part that I don't know where it is coming from. Why is it 1/x integral cos (xy) dy?
Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.

Last week, we examined five creative draft-day trade possibilities for the Philadelphia Eagles. This time around, let's get real.
Player-for-player trades are rare in the NFL, and trading up from No. 22 overall probably isn't in the Birds' best interest. That being said, there are still deals to be made during draft weekend that can help the front office add what it so desperately needs: more picks.
The Eagles currently hold six selections in next weekend's draft, yet they certainly have more needs than that. Based on the number of aging veterans, impending free agents or issues of depth, Philadelphia could stand to add one or more prospects at wide receiver, offensive line, defensive line, outside linebacker, inside linebacker, cornerback, safety and kicker.
The Eagles can get a hold of some of the extra picks they desire, though. Dump a veteran here, move down a few spots in the draft, and the next thing you know, the Eagles will have enough picks, they'll be packaging some of them to trade back up.
Inside, we dissect three potential trade-down scenarios. But first, here are a couple of veterans who could be on the block while the Eagles are on the clock.
