United Microelectronics Corp., once a leading contract maker of chips, these days can hardly compete against its rivals when it comes to innovative process technologies. Nonetheless, the company can produce chips at very competitive price-points, which makes it a unique choice for those, who develop solutions for low-cost devices.
On Tuesday ARM Holdings and UMC announced that they have successfully developed a low-cost physical implementation of ARM Cortex-A7 general-purpose processing core (ARM Artisan physical IP platform along with POP IP) for 28nm HLP [high-performance low-power] process technology. Partners of the two companies can now easily integrate the A7 cores into their system-on-chip designs that are made using the aforementioned manufacturing process.
The energy-efficient ARM Cortex-A7 processor has seen broad adoption in smartphones, tablets, DTV and other consumer products. Being an in-order microprocessor, the Cortex-A7 hardly provides hard performance necessary by today's leading-edge devices. Nonetheless, its speed is enough for various smart devices which are getting popular these days. The ARM POP IP for the Cortex-A7 processor is targeted for 1.2GHz on UMC's 28HLP platform, and delivery began in December 2013.
UMC's 28HLP process is the foundry's enhanced 28nm technology uses poly-SiON gate dielectric. The manufacturing technology is said to provide "an optimal balance of size, speed and power leakage". The process is primarily aimed at portable, wireless LAN, and both wired and handheld consumer products. The foundry is currently in pilot production for customer products on 28HLP, with volume production expected in early 2014.
"Through our close collaboration with UMC, ARM's physical IP and POP IP enable optimal SoC implementation and streamline the design flow so that our mutual customers can achieve world-class implementation and get to market in the shortest time possible. Our standard cells, next-generation memory compilers and POP IP deliver the features, quality, and rigorous silicon validation that UMC's customers demand, and help ARM deliver on our commitment to provide the best physical IP platforms at leading foundries," said Dipesh Patel, executive vice president and general manager of physical design group at ARM.

Swedish pingpong athlete is big celebrity in China
BEIJING (AP) Table tennis is the national sport of China, so naturally one of the game's biggest celebrities here is ... a Swedish guy.
Jan-Ove Waldner challenged generations of Chinese players with his creative style of play during a career that has spanned more than 25 years. His games were frequently shown on Chinese television, fans stake out his hotels and Waldner even opened a Swedish restaurant in Beijing.
"Occasionally there has been, what do you call it, mob scenes where he has to find his way to get to the bus or the car, for sure," said Anders Thunstrom, coach of the 1992 Swedish team at the Barcelona Olympics, where Waldner won gold in men's singles.
Though he doesn't match Kobe Bryant or Yao Ming in overall popularity, the sandy-haired, blue-eyed Waldner is beloved by China's many pingpong fans. He even has Chinese nicknames: "The Evergreen," a reference to his lengthy career. And "Lao Wa," or "Old Waldner," as if the Chinese were affectionately addressing a familiar friend.
"I feel that I'm always welcome, I'm like a Chinese player in the people's mind," Waldner said recently after helping unveil a memorial wall for former table tennis Olympic champions outside the Peking University Gymnasium. He is the only non-Asian gold medalist, and his Nordic looks stood out in the line of former champions who pulled off the large red cloth covering the wall.
Waldner has won a "grand slam" of Olympic, world championships and World Cup men's singles titles. The Beijing Olympics is the first time he will not be competing in the games since table tennis was introduced as an Olympic sport in 1988. At age 42, his body is not strong enough to compete, he said.
However, he's still keeping busy in the Chinese capital during the games, appearing at several media events in a polo shirt with the logo of a Swedish company that sells life insurance and other financial products to the huge Chinese consumer market.
That's just one of his endorsement deals. Waldner is also a celebrity pitchman in China for wood flooring, real estate and golf courses.
"Yes, Mr. Waldner is the most famous Swede in China," said Mikael Lindstrom, the Swedish ambassador. "I think his reputation will hang in there for years to come ... he's always an asset we have in mind when we have important occasions because he's so well-known."
It's no small feat for a pingpong player from Sweden, a country of 9 million people, to dominate athletes from China, which has a population of 1.3 billion.
The Chinese have ruled table tennis for decades. They're so good that the sport's international body passed a rule to stanch the flow of players who leave their country of birth to represent another country. At the Beijing Games, 30 of the 64 competitors in the women's singles event are Chinese-born, though only three play for China, according to the International Table Tennis Federation.
Waldner's success in table tennis stems from his ingenuity in changing tactics and playing styles during a match.
"I think if you take the Asian players compared to me, they are more like machines when they play. They always do the same things when they are playing," he said.
These days, Waldner's pingpong is limited to playing for a German club team. Though his dedication to the game is one reason why he never found the time to learn to drive, Waldner said he prefers the lighter load.
"In the free time I play a lot of golf, instead of table tennis now. It's more relaxing," he said.
When he is in Beijing, which he visits seven or eight times a year, Waldner often hangs out with friends at his W Restaurant and Bar, a sort of shrine to all things Waldner and the city's only Swedish restaurant. "Lao Wa, we love you," is painted in Chinese on the wall behind his favorite table.
The restaurant is filled with blond wood furniture, sports jerseys and photos of Waldner. The cover of the food menu shows a pensive Waldner, holding a cup of coffee. The cover of the drink menu features a mischievous Waldner, pouring champagne onto a tower of glasses.
Waldner enjoys playing pickup pingpong on a table with colorful Christmas tinsel wrapped around the legs. He recommends the eatery's signature dish - what else? - Swedish meatballs.
"I'm not cooking so much anymore. I'm taking the beer more," he joked.
Li Gu, the general manager of W Restaurant and Bar, said fans flock there to shake Waldner's hand, take a photo or get an autograph. Waldner is "really famous, not just regular famous," Li said.
"Sweden's not a big country but they are admired by people around the world for things like the Nobel Prize. They have what's been called the safest car in the world, Volvo, and they have ... Ikea," Li said. "But a lot of people might not know, Sweden also has Lao Wa."

Photographers of the Good Life
By now, it's conventional wisdom that early childhood experiences — down to the shapes and colors of one's toys — have a lasting impact. After all, ours is the age of bestseller parenting books and souped-up strollers. But a century ago, designers were just beginning to focus on the littlest among them, studying how to create healthful, stimulating environments for the next generation. "Century of the Child: Growing by Design, 1900–2000," at New York's Museum of Modern Art, surveys the far-reaching movement with more than 500 objects, from a chic (if impractical) glass desk by Gio Ponti to sets from the zany television show Pee-wee's Playhouse. The show maps out key themes, including toys of the war era (a Graf Zeppelin dirigible), projects with an optimistic worldview (a low-cost laptop), and modernist icons (Marcel Breuer's tubular steel furniture). And Breuer was just one of several Bauhaus designers to address the younger set. When Alma Siedhoff-Buscher was tasked with the children's room for a 1920s Bauhaus model house, she created a set of colorful building blocks and designed walls that budding artists — or decorators — could draw on. She argued that "children should…have a room in which they can be who they want to be, in which they rule." Luckily for those parents not ready to yield wall space, the MoMA Design Store has her Bauspiel building blocks in stock.

Affair of the Heart


text:
In a time when Mad Men-style cocktails are experiencing a modern renaissance, the classic Gibson still stands as one of the manliest tipples out there: gin with dry vermouth stirred well and strained into a chilled martini glass, garnished with a pickled onion.
Like so many cocktail origin stories, the Gibson is shrouded in mystery. But the likeliest point of origin comes in the 1890s when prominent San Francisco businessman Walter D.K. Gibson supposedly concocted the cocktail that bears his name at the Bohemian Club. Though the origin may be foggy, there is no dispute with its Hollywood prominence, first getting its close-up when Carey Grant ordered one while enjoying dinner with Eva Marie Saint in the classic 1959 film North by Northwest, solidifying its Hollywood lore. Now, the Gibson's popularity has been bolstered by Mad Men character Roger Sterling, who is none to shy from ordering one, or a dozen, during the one-hour episodes.
The Gibson
- 2 oz. Gin
- ½ oz. Dry Vermouth
Garnish: Pickled onion
Preparation: Combine ingredients into a mixing glass with ice. Stir well and strain into a chilled martini glass.
Putting the adage "imitation is the most sincere form of flattery" to the test, here we put a modern twist on the classic Gibson. The recipe utilizes a Swedish potato vodka base that adds a little complexity and subtle flavors that are brought out by an exquisite garnish: steak and potatoes. The brine of the pickled onion plays off the sweetness of the Lillet Blanc, while the starch of the potato brings out the smoothness of the vodka. The steak stimulates the saliva to enhance all the flavors. Enjoy!
Gibson Moderna
- 2 oz. Karlsson's Gold Vodka
- ¼ oz. Dry Vermouth
- ½ oz. Lillet Blanc
Garnish: Pickled onion, grilled potato piece and small cube of seared steak sprinkled with herbs
Preparation: Rinse the ice in a mixing glass with Lillet Blanc. (Fill mixing glass with ice. Pour Lillet Blanc over the ice. Stir for a moment, then strain the Lillet Blanc out of the mixing glass.) Pour remaining ingredients into mixing glass. Stir well and strain into a snifter half filled with ice.

superbe appartement, on a été surpris de voir que la réalité était digne des photos!!!
spacieux, très confortable, attention la seule chose que nous n avons pas trouvé, c est le lave linge... pour un weekend ce n est pas grave mais peut etre pour plus longtemps ça peut manquer!!!
quartier génial, notamment la boulangerie face à l mmeuble!
rien à redire!!!
Thank you very much for your hospitality! The apartment is well located and also very well equipped! Perfect for a couple! I highly recommend the apartment!
Merci beaucoup pour votre accueil!
L'appartement est bien situé et aussi très bien équipé! Parfait pour un couple!
Je recommande vivement l'appartement!
the first nice location u can walk to beach with in 5 mins that is the great part to me
me and my wife we almost spent time on the beach in nice of course u can
go old town it's little fat away but i only went to old town 1time only
if u stay in nice , i think u dont wanna do any thing just wanna lay down on the
beach So here is the best way in nice
We had a great stay in Nice, the property is very close to the tram, train, bike hire and a 10-15 minute walk to the old town. It is also close to a supermarket (monoprix) so we saved money cooking after a day on the beach. The apartment was clean, simplistic and with a spacious living area and the host was very flexible with our arrival and departure times.
Warm 2nd time I come ..... In addition the sheets and towels ..... For me the top
Accueil chaleureux 2émes fois que je viens .....En plus les draps et linges.....Pour moi le top
The host is service-minded, reliable and flexible. The apartment was small though fulfilled all the basic requirements, incl. a reasonably comfortable bed, basic kitchen and a surprisingly nice bathroom and toilet. Though the furniture is mainly IKEA quality (or lack thereof) it is a good place to spend a weekend in walking distance from the promenade (5 min), place Massena (15 min) and the old city (18 min). It's even got a Blue Bikes (Velobleue) station right next to the entrance. Even though the street outside is heavily trafficed, the windows blocked most of the noise and we had a lovely time in Nice. I can recommend a stay at Blvd Grosso for any young couple on a low budget trip to Nice.
Salvatore is a nice and helpful guy. The contact before we arrived was good and our early check-out was not a problem.
The appartment looks exactly like the pictures and was clean, but it is quite small and I would not recommend it for very tall people, more than 2 people or for a stay of more than 2-3 nights.
The location is great, next to the old town, 10 min. walk to the beach and with a nice view of the Garibaldi Square and the mountains outside Nice. The square has some traffic which starts very early in the morning so bring earplugs if you want to sleep with the windows open.
I have been a month in Niza and I've stayed in the studio on the Boulevard François Grosso. The studio was very nicely decorated, very clean and very bright too well that the studio is so close to the beach. Shopping are also nearby. Of course it was not big bother me in the studio a little noisy due to road traffic, but nonetheless has. It would be beneficial if you would notify the tenants that you are responsible for the linens and towels. Salvatore was always courteous and very pleasant. I can recommend the studio to anyone.
Ich bin eine Monat lang in Niza gewesen und hab mich im Studio am Boulevard François Grosso aufgehalten. Das Studio war sehr nett eingerichtet, sehr sauber und sehr hell. Auch gut, dass das Studio so nahe am Strand liegt. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten befinden sich auch in der Nähe.
Natürlich war es im Studio ein wenig laut wegen des Strassenverkehrs, doch nicht desto trotz hat es mich nicht gross gestört. Es wäre von Vorteil, wenn man den Mietern mitteilen würde, dass man selbst für die Bettwäsche bzw. Geschirrtücher verantwortlich ist.
Salvatore war stets zuvorkommend uns sehr nett. Ich kann das Studio jedem empfehlen.
Very nice host and a very nice apartment. We were much satisfied with our stay here!

WHAT: '09 GPZ1100 Mailing List Western Rally and International Concours d'Elegance. Non-GPZ riders, deemed by a regular list member as responsible and road-worthy, are also more than welcome. WHERE: The Teller House Hotel (www.tellerhousehotel.com) 1250 Greene Street, Silverton, CO 81433, ~ 800.342.4338 ~ 970.387.5423 or The Bent Elbow Restaurant & Hotel (www.thebent.com) 1114 Blair Street, Silverton, CO 81433, ~ toll-free (877)387-5775 or (970)387-5775. Accommodations are hotel and the rates are tourist town rates, from $65 to $90 per night for a room with one or two queen beds, many are one queen bed only so reserve accordingly. For those who would rather camp out under the stars, camping is available at the A&B RV or a couple of other places. Visit them on the web or call me for directions. I will be staying the Bent Elbow again this time. AREA DESCRIPTION Nestled high in the heart of the San Juan Mountains in a mountain valley at 9,318 feet, the Town of Silverton combines supreme natural beauty and magnificent Victorian charm. Silverton is a town that has its own color and character. Most of the buildings and the mining-laden hillsides reflect a simpler day as does the Silverton lifestyle. Winter activities include skiing, snowmobiling and lots of drinking. Local summer recreational opportunities abound and include camping, hiking, fishing, biking, boating, photography, and nearby off-highway vehicle riding areas. Visitors can also take the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad for a trip back into American history. Having lived in Durango for three years while attending college, I can attest to the beauty and scenic vistas in the area. For more info, see: http://www.silvertoncolorado.com/ WHEN: 25-28 June 2009. Arrive anytime on Thursday the 25th and leave on the morning of Sunday the 28th, or later if you so desire. 25 June - We will occupy our hotel rooms Thursday (June 25th) evening, with the usual stories of the trip down. Plan on a walk to dinner for those who arrive early enough. For those coming from the east and riding down with me, I am planning on taking the scenic route we usually take over Monarch Pass, through Lake City and Creede, and over Wolf Creek Pass which is an excellent ride. 26 June - Early morning walk to breakfast. All day ride over the Million Dollar Highway via Durango, Cortez and past Mesa Verde National Park to Stoner, to scenic Telluride (with a stop for lunch hopefully), through Placerville, Ridgeway, Ouray, Red Mountain Pass and back to Silverton. This time we will do the ride backwards from what we have previously. We did this loop the past three rally's and it is a nationally ranked ride, Cycle World calls one of the ten best in the USA. Please plan on leaving the motel on the early side so we can miss the Winnebago/land barge parade over the passes. Return to camp for cleanup (we should be back by 3:00 or so), shopping and local sight seeing and dinner and the usual festivities and debauchery. Total mileage is about 220 so it's not a terribly long day. I'm thinking about a pre-drinking/after dark ride up Red Mountain Pass or up the dirt road towards Lake City for some star gazing which is simply amazing at 10,000 feet or so. 27 June - Early morning hike to breakfast. This year we are planning a ride up Colorado 141 to Gateway and possibly Grand Junction depending on time. Gateway has a large new car museum owned and founded by the creator of the Discovery Channel and it has some pretty amazing cars in it. The scenery follows the rivers, but the vistas and butte's you'll see are right out of the old westerns. The ride is mostly easy sweepers with some tighter curves thrown in to keep it interesting. (See my pics from my ride last summer at http://community.webshots.com/user/scapco) Depending on how far, fast, or scenic everyone wants to ride, make the day as long or short as you desire. Expect more spectacular scenery and many stops for posing and photo sessions on the way back. Return to camp for cleanup, another brisk walk to dinner at the Bent Elbow Restaurant and more festivities and debauchery. I'd like to do another T-shirt swap between the attendees like we did the last few rally's. Creativity is important. LOL! 28 June - Break camp and clean up. Not so early, bleary-eyed ride to breakfast. Teary good byes and photos, exchanging of email addresses, cell phone #s, web URLs, and PDA data. Long ride home begins. I prefer to take the long way home which is near 450 miles of mountain passes, figure 10 hours in the saddle if you go my way. There are several ways to shorten the ride depending on how one's "nether region" is holding up. All attendees are expected to ride safely on all group rides, and expected to comply with the basic rules of the road. Also, not all of the parking in Silverton is on the best surfaces, so please bring something to put under your kickstand or center stand. Also, because of the altitude it can be cool at night, so bring some warm clothes or if you're Canadian and used to the cold, bring some shorts. COST: Up to you. I don't make food reservations so spend as much or as little as you desire. Silverton is somewhat of a tourist/mountain town, so expect things to be priced accordingly. Beer is "plentiful", remember you're staying in a hotel where the first floors are bars/saloons (and the upper floors were once whorehouses!!). LOL! When I went to college in Durango in the late 70's there were 52 places to buy alcohol in a town of 12,000, and I think I knew them all. One warning, drinking beer at 9,300 ft altitude is not like drinking at sea level. If you're a six pack per evening guy, three will do just fine up here. I'm not kidding!! I believe this will be a fairly small gathering due to the economy and being our fifth gathering so I encourage everyone on the list to make every reasonable attempt to make it to this year's rally as it might be the last. Those that attended the GPZ rallies in previous years will confirm that the events exceeded all of our expectations. They continue to be the peak experiences I've have in many years of motorcycling. Local bike rentals are available in Denver at Colorado Tour Bike Rentals http://www.tourbikes.com or (720) 231-6349, or http://www.eaglerider.com (Hardley's and Lead Wings only). There are probably others too so shop around. To read more about the previous rally's, visit the list page and check out the pictures at: http://list.gpz1100.com. If you have questions, suggestions, or an offer of help, please don't hesitate to email me or call me on my cell at 303-956-6501. I "might" be able to accommodate one or two before or after the ride at my ex wife's place in the south Denver metro area. I will be living at my ex-s after next weekend for a couple of months until I can find a new place to live. Just let me know if you need a place to crash and I'll see what I can do. Also, for anyone who wants to hang around Denver and ride on Monday the 29th, we're repeating the always spectacular day long ride through Rocky Mountain National Park which is one of the highest paved roads in North America and reaches altitudes of near 13,000 feet. Thanks, and I look forward to seeing you. Charles S. Centennial, Colorado 2009 Rally Coordinator 303-797-8970 Ex- Wife's Home 303-956-6501 My Cell

Discover the best of Holland this year
Take a city break to Holland and discover the easy-going Dutch lifestyle. There is so much to do this year, book now and immerse yourself into local culture and seasonal festivities.
Take a city break to Holland and discover the easy-going Dutch lifestyle. There is so much to do this year, book now and immerse yourself into local culture and seasonal festivities.
Drive through flower-strewn lowlands and pass picturesque canals to funky capital Amsterdam with its exciting blend of culture, history and late-night partying. Or mingle in the hip bars and contemporary design shops of buzzing second city Rotterdam and you'll soon admire how Holland combines the best of the old and the new.
Enjoy the intimacy of Amsterdam's historic city centre with its lovely canals, many shopping streets dotted with decorative lighting and of course the countless welcoming pubs and great restaurants.
Rotterdam, the second-largest city in Holland is an extraordinarily dynamic city featuring modern architecture, festivals, sporting events, unique shops/boutiques and cutting-edge art and culture. The new De Rotterdam building designed by Rem Koolhaas is a true reflection of Rotterdam's innovative thinking. Take a break and enjoy food-shopping across an international selection of products at the lively Markthal indoor food market. More than 4,000 colourful tiles cover the inside of the spectacular roof structure and forms the largest artwork in Holland. The Markthal has been named the modern version of the Sistine Chapel. A true experience, open 7 days a week until 8 pm.
Visit the Hague and enjoy the royal and sophisticated ambiance. Great for shopping and known for its fresh seafood and Indonesian cuisine, The Hague is perfect for a short break. The coast is only a ten minute tram ride from the city centre and is lined with trendy beach-side cafes where you can grab a hot chocolate and a piece of Dutch apple cake, after a stroll along the promenade.
Only 30 minutes from Amsterdam and in the heart of Holland you will find the beautiful city of Utrecht. With a medieval city centre, small enough to explore on foot, Utrecht exudes easy-going Dutch charm everywhere you go. Visit the Dom Tower; the highest and oldest church tower in Holland. The Dom Tower is 112 metres high and even if you do not climb to the top, you are still likely to hear one of its thirteen bells.
Join the Dutch and travel along the Netherlands' canals or see the sights by bike. If you're a nature lover you'll adore the classic landscapes and formal gardens of North Holland or the trails and beaches on Texel Island. Watch windmill sails turning hypnotically around in South Holland. To see the Netherlands at its most vibrant and fun-loving, head for the bright lights of capital Amsterdam.
Visit The Hague for stunning modern architecture. Choose the port city of Rotterdam for its thriving design scene. Follow Utrecht's canals and climb to the top of The Dom Towers for panoramic city views. Or visit peaceful Haarlem to visit the Teylers Museum. See Old Masters in the Museum Quarter of Amsterdam or people-watch from one of the cafes that ring Leidseplein square.
The road between Haarlem and Leiden is known as the flower bulb route, and in spring its fields are filled with brightly coloured petals. In South Holland you'll find windmills and historic wooden houses, especially around Zaanse Schans. Journey up the North Sea Coast to the deserted beaches and miles of walking trails of the quiet Wadden Islands.

Texas takes flying seriouslyThursday, May 26th, 2011
I spend a lot of time talking to elected and appointed government officials who routinely make decisions affecting general aviation, but it's rare that I can get a lot of them in one room at the same time. This morning was the exception. I had nothing to do with getting them there, but I am not beyond taking advantage of such an opportunity.
The event was the Texas State Aviation Conference. For 29 years, aviation leaders and decision makers from around the state have been getting together to talk about the issues affecting general aviation. And Texans take their aviation seriously. In a state that's larger than France and which has major population centers in places like Dallas and Houston as well as vast areas of open ranchland, GA makes a lot of sense.
Quite a few states hold events like this and I wish even more would follow suit. Just as we at AOPA believe in collaborating with others across aviation, state and local aviation leaders can get some great ideas when they talk to each other about what matters to pilots, airport operators, aviation businesses, and other stakeholders.
Dave Fulton, director of TxDOT Aviation Division, gave an overview of the state of aviation in Texas, and I was impressed by the gains the state has made in terms of runway repairs, new terminals, new towers for congested urban areas, new AWOS, and more.
Then it was my turn to talk about AOPA's work in Congress and the national issues that are affecting GA now and into the future, including avgas, NextGen, and ADS-B. And, of course, we talked about the importance of growing the pilot population and staying engaged and informed.
Pilots in Texas are fortunate their state aviation officials were sufficiently forward looking to launch this event 29 years ago and keep it going ever since. And I am lucky to be here, sharing the GA perspective with decision makers who know that general aviation matters.

LA X(enakis)Posted by Christian Carey in Chamber Music, Composers, Concerts, Contemporary Classical, Experimental Music, File Under?, Los Angeles, Strings, Video, tags: Aaron Cassidy, JACK, John Cage, Philip Glass, String Quartet, Tetras, Tim Rutherford-Johnson, Webern, Xenakis
JACK Quartet presents two concerts in LA this coming Sunday and Monday. On 2/13, they're giving an afternoon concert for the Da Camera Society (tickets/details here) at the Southern California Institute of Architecture. The program includes early music – Machaut and Gesualdo – as well as contemporary works: Philip Glass' 5th Quartet and Tetras by Iannis Xenakis. The selections certainly suit the concert's location: both Xenakis and Machaut are composers who should be of interest to architects!
On Monday, JACK will present a different program as part of Monday Evening Concerts at the Colburn School (tickets/details here). It includes both of Aaron Cassidy's quartets, John Cage's String Quartet in Four Parts, Anton Webern's Op. 9 Bagatelles, and Horaţiu Rădulescu's String Quartet No. 5 "before the universe was born."
This looks to be an amazing double header of new music programs. I hope that some of our Californian readers will be able to attend. If so, please send us a report.
Tim Rutherford-Johnson has an excellent post about Aaron Cassidy's 2nd Quartet on New Music Box today.
As Tim pointed out on his blog, Paul Griffiths' notes for the 2/14 program are online.
Here's a taste of Tetras:

Documentation by James Edward Gray II and Gavin Sinclair
This library provides three different ways to delegate method calls to an object. The easiest to use is SimpleDelegator. Pass an object to the constructor and all methods supported by the object will be delegated. This object can be changed later.
Going a step further, the top level DelegateClass method allows you to easily setup delegation through class inheritance. This is considerably more flexible and thus probably the most common use for this library.
Finally, if you need full control over the delegation scheme, you can inherit from the abstract class Delegator and customize as needed. (If you find yourself needing this control, have a look at forwardable, also in the standard library. It may suit your needs better.)
Be advised, RDoc will not detect delegated methods.
delegate.rb provides full-class delegation via the DelegateClass() method. For single-method delegation via def_delegator(), see forwardable.rb.
Here's a simple example that takes advantage of the fact that SimpleDelegator's delegation object can be changed at any time.
class Stats def initialize @source = SimpleDelegator.new([]) end def stats( records ) @source.__setobj__(records) "Elements: #{@source.size}\n" + " Non-Nil: #{@source.compact.size}\n" + " Unique: #{@source.uniq.size}\n" end end s = Stats.new puts s.stats(%w{James Edward Gray II}) puts puts s.stats([1, 2, 3, nil, 4, 5, 1, 2])
Elements: 4 Non-Nil: 4 Unique: 4 Elements: 8 Non-Nil: 7 Unique: 6
Here's a sample of use from tempfile.rb.
A Tempfile object is really just a File object with a few special rules about storage location and/or when the File should be deleted. That makes for an almost textbook perfect example of how to use delegation.
class Tempfile < DelegateClass(File) # constant and class member data initialization... def initialize(basename, tmpdir=Dir::tmpdir) # build up file path/name in var tmpname... @tmpfile = File.open(tmpname, File::RDWR|File::CREAT|File::EXCL, 0600) # ... super(@tmpfile) # below this point, all methods of File are supported... end # ... end
SimpleDelegator's implementation serves as a nice example here.
class SimpleDelegator < Delegator def initialize(obj) super # pass obj to Delegator constructor, required @delegate_sd_obj = obj # store obj for future use end def __getobj__ @delegate_sd_obj # return object we are delegating to, required end def __setobj__(obj) @delegate_sd_obj = obj # change delegation object, a feature we're providing end # ... end

Weapons bans not the answer
A small unit of the Federal Bureau of Investigation may be paving the way for state governments in search of a system that could help prevent mass shootings and violence, not through weapons bans, but through threat assessment and mental health treatment.
It is clear most of those who decide to carry out mass shootings are very disturbed people. They are mentally ill. And many of them obtained their weapons through entirely legal means, unlikely to be changed by legislation.
According to the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit, nearly 150 shootings and violent attacks were stopped this year by helping local authorities assess the threat presented by a person of concern. The Behavioral Threat Assessment Center then makes recommendations based on specific cases – arrest, if there has been illegal activity, or mental health care.
By many accounts, such an assessment might have stopped gunmen like Adam Lanza at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. Lanza was described by too many who knew him as "troubled," with a fascination with violence that was apparent to teachers and acquaintances. But his case did not reach the small FBI unit that might have stopped him and gotten him help.
After Sandy Hook, President Barack Obama said, "We're going to need to work on making access to mental health care at least as easy as access to a gun," but quickly got caught up in gun-control frenzy, and has not since promoted programs like the Behavioral Analysis Unit.
States and other federal agencies need their own method for heading off the next mass shooting or act of violence. Though the FBI has reportedly stopped hundreds of incidents since 2011, it is, sadly, too great a task for one small group of people. It may not be perfect, but relevant agencies across the country might look to the Behavioral Analysis Unit as a template for their own effort to improve access to mental health care for those ready to snap.

Beowulf, voiced and motion-capture-acted by Ray Winstone
Beowulf faces down Grendel's mother, Angelina Jolie (also below).
Thanks to modern technology, "Beowulf's" bare-chested hot bods are buffed to the max without the benefit of steroids. The cast of "300" had to endure weeks of working out to get in shape for their film, but for Zemeckis, it was as easy as dressing his middle-aged stars - Ray Winstone, John Malkovich and Anthony Hopkins - in skin-tight body stockings. Although tracing the sinewy figure of Angelina Jolie into virtual beauty wasn't as difficult.
"We were able to create our own beefcake from scratch," explains screenwriter Roger Avary ("Pulp Fiction"), who co-scripted "Beowulf" with fantasy author Neil Gaiman from the Olde English epic poem that dates back to at least the 8th century. As with 2004's "The Polar Express," Zemeckis' previous motion-capture effort, his actors wore suits festooned with dozens of sensors that allowed computers to track their moves and map them onto the film's CGI characters. "It was like being able to costume somebody down to their flesh and skin," Zemeckis says. "We started with archetypes and real photos and had our concept artists boil them down to what we were looking for.
"It was a very sophisticated version of what the police use when they create the likeness of a criminal, except we used the technology for the opposite reason: to fine-tune what we wanted our hero to look like. Rather than have Ray go on a diet of a gram of protein a day, or do upside-down gravity crunches, we were able to just digitally sculpt him into an ideal."
"My wife thought Beowulf was me when I was 22," says Winstone ("Sexy Beast") of his onscreen alter ego. "She pulled out a picture of me from back then - it was Beowulf. I'm sure she'd like him for real - if she told me she prefers me the way I look now, I wouldn't believe her."
In an age of graphic novels, video games and million-dollar special effects, filmmakers have to do more than simply point a camera at a sandal-clad, sword-wielding hero (Brad Pitt in "Troy," anyone?). They have to make him - and his muscles - larger than life and "realer than real," with the extra visual oomph that only a stylized, green-screen environment or serious CGI animation can provide.
And if getting there means making your stars to wear form-fitting Lycra, so be it. "There's me, Hopkins, Malkovich - who's tall and slender - and we're all getting on a bit," says Winstone. "Then standing next to us you've got Angelina and Robin Wright Penn. The boys have funny shapes, then you've got the girls - they look great!
"When you put that suit on and go out on the set with some of the finest actors, you feel very naked at first. There's giggles from the crew, all that kind of stuff. You start thinking, 'F- it, let's just do it.' You get rid of your inhibitions and start enjoying it. It's like going back to basics because you're using your imagination again."
Various trailers and clips:
John Wayne is coming back Fur Shur.
I suppose they can resurrect any deceased (or entirely imaginary) actor they like and have it look real....or in this case, better than real.
But will audiences pay to go to a theater to see a stylized amalgam of, say, Theda Bara and Marilyn Monroe or will a living actor / actress with widespread name recognition still be able to command astronomical salaries?
Considering the increasing popularity of anime, I would suggest that there are an awful lot of people who simply don't care about "name" stars particularly, but there are still many who do, at least for the time being..
Boy, a lot different than the Beowulf and Grendel that Gerard Butler was in! woo.
CGI muscles are definitely a portent. We actually have 5 complete NARUTO costumes in a box for use next Halloween ~ as with this Halloween. We know his popularity will increase. Best part about NARUTO is that he can clone himself!
When he was a high school senior, he and a team of his buds got an A+ on a "Beowulf" project they did for their English class.
They used the XBox game "Gears of War" and created selected scenes involving Beowulf and 3 other characters to tell the story of "Beowulf"...the hunt for Grendel and the slaying of the dragon and many others.
They took screen captures then overdubbed the audio with their own voices and sound effects and a hard rock soundtrack...edited it all together using Windows Movie Maker and burned it onto a DVD with titles and credits.
They titled their project "The Geats of War". It was awesome. Quite imaginative.
Believe it or not, most bodybuilders do it without chemical substances. I've been hitting the weights pretty hard the last 6 months and keep my protein intake high while controlling calories -AKA naturally. It'll build pounds of muscle on your frame.
Amazing. My friend and I are going to go sometime as part of a project on modern retellings of the Beowulf story (we also got to watch Beowulf & Grendel and 13th Warrior). Now I'm really psyched to go see it, the fact that it's Beowulf is enough to interest me but the technology has got me really really interested, along with a few of those still shots =).
I'm embarrassed to say that I had to look that up :-)
I guess I don't need to waste my time submitting a job application to a video store specializing in anime :-)
The "cloning yourself" business sounds intriguing. If I could swing that, I could send my clone off to work and just spend my time eating, sleeping and FReeping :-)
Indeed. Angelina Jolie is one of those people who occasionally is just "too sexy" for me to watch, in that they make me go crazy and I have to get up and leave, and take a walk outside or something :-)
Tina Turner used to do that to me years ago as well.....one of the hazards of being a normal, healthy male stoat I suppose :-)
Angelina Jolie gets virtually naked the Daily Mail
In her transformation for the role, the actress appears to have regained her famous knock-out curves, perhaps with a little digital assistance.
Filmed in a photo-realistic animation style, the release has been described by the Los Angeles Times as a "hyper violent and highly sexualized tale".
Naked truth: the actress strikes a sultry pose in a promotion shot for her new blockbuster.
What a great idea! It must have been grand, screaming fun to make and I'm glad that it turned out well. Congratulations!
This is going to be one of those hugely successful movies that men of all ages will be in love with but (most) women will turn up their noses at.
Too bad ladies, not all movies can (or should) be "Steel Magnolias"
In a related note, I seem recall reading somewhere that the writers completely butchered the story of Beowulf, pretty much standing it on its ear.
That's probably going to be true, particularly considering the fact that NONE of the publicity for the film shouts that it's "Done with a strict attention to the integrity of the story".
Perhaps it was judged as not being 'exciting enough' for modern audiences.
I'm not too sure about that, judging from the fact that my friends and I had a 'girls night' where we went to see the movie 300. Apparently blood and epic warfare can be popular with even the girliest of girls as long as nobody's wearing a shirt, especially if one of those people is Gerard Butler.
My only problem with the way Beowulf looks is that Angelina is the WRONG person for Grendel's mother. She's supposed to be scary in the ancient-monster-hag way, not the frighteningly-large-lips way.
hehehe! Being a male stoat I hadn't noticed her lips in a negative way, but in all honesty I usually have a tough time being critical of ladies :-) With Hyzenthlay as Casting Director, who would you have cast for the part?
Cast as Grendel's Mother? Helen Thomas, of course.
Although entirely appropriate, that would insure the film's instant demise. No one would pay to see it other than adoring Leftist "journalists" who view breathtaking hideousness as a virtue, as evidenced by the long line of Socialist 'heroines'....Bella "Mrs. Hat" Abzug, Rosie O'Donnell, Anybody on the NARAL Management Team, Mrs. Clinton, Nancy Pelosi,..the list goes on and on.
But you're right...an excellent casting for a Mother Demon.
I don't know... anyone who's good at acting, especially in situations where there are green screens and spandex outfits and not a lot of realism on the set, and then she could just be digitally monster-ised afterwards. Even Angelina might have been OK if they hadn't made her look so much like... Angelina, and more like an old female monster-thing, like Grendel's mother in Beowulf & Grendel was pretty good IMO.
Spoiler follows in negative review.
OK, I just made the mistake of seeing it today. We went because of a favorable review in the WSJ. I cant believe that they made this heroic tale into humanistic brainwashing propaganda.
The appeal of mythic hero stories is that there is someone out there who is worth emulating and that evil can be defeated.
But, in in this version the hero poo poos his reputation. Unlike the authentic character, this Beowulf lies about his deeds and doesnt actually defeat the chief demon.
The film sends the message that to believe in a savior who is capable of defeating evil is foolish.
Instead we are supposed to believe that sixth century Viking warriors dont call on the gods because the gods only do for us what we do for ourselves.
This film is blasphemy for Beowulf devotees. The producers should be sued for using his name in the title.
Perhaps most outrageous is that the final scene is dominated by Grendals mother still hovering around the body of Beowulf (who doesnt seem to go to valhalla)and is present to tempt the new king. This is so wrong.
With Oden and the new Roman god Christ dismissed from the storys universe, we are left in the end with a powerful demon trying to wreck more corruption so much for eliminating the point of epic myth that usually seeks to bring closure to the problem of evil.
Are they thinking of a sequel?
There are a few good points, such as some of the effects are nice. Grendal does look exactly as you might imagine him. But, you should be aware the the computer graphic imagery is often cartoonish and not fluent like 300.
I went in with such hopes. This Demythologed Beowulf is plain stupid.
It is no shame to be curse by demons. It is a shame to waste time seeing this cursed film.

24th annual Disability Awareness Awards presented
People with disabilities who have experienced success, as well as those who provide opportunities for disabled people to excel, were honored recently at the 24th annual Disability Awareness Awards Celebration.
The event, presented by The Resource Center and TRC Foundation, was held at the Dunkirk Moose Lodge, with some 150 people attending.
For more than 50 years, The Resource Center has been making a difference in the lives of Chautauqua County residents with disabling conditions. During that time, TRC has been privileged to experience thousands of successes as people with disabilities have overcome the barriers they face to lead fulfilling, meaningful lives.
While The Resource Center and TRC Foundation take pride in helping people achieve their fullest potential, the organizations do not succeed on their own. Many individuals, businesses and other organizations play a pivotal role in supporting persons with disabilities to be successful.
That's why every year since 1989, TRC has taken time to salute individuals with disabilities who have made great accomplishments in their lives, as well as to recognize community-based entities that have supported those efforts.
The list of this year's award recipients includes the following:
Advocate of the Year: Dennis Webster of West Ellicott. Since 1996 Webster, an on-air personality at WJTN, has hosted a biweekly radio show about The Resource Center. He often will take excerpts from the programs and use them in news stories or special features during his regular weekday morning radio program. Having been involved with TRC for so many years, Webster has developed a sensitivity to the challenges faced by people with disabilities and a deep understanding of the many services The Resource Center offers, not only to people with disabling conditions, but the entire community.
Allied Industries Customer of the Year: Dahlstrom Roll Form of Jamestown. This award is presented each year to a business partner that provides work to Allied Industries, The Resource Center's manufacturing and employment division. Allied provides employment, work training and skill development opportunities to individuals with disabilities at locations in Dunkirk, Jamestown and Buffalo. TRC and Dahlstrom are collaborating on a project in which workers with disabilities are installing clips in six different lengths of weather-stripping. This weather-stripping is used in the frames of sliding glass doors. TRC also is punching the holes in the shorter lengths and will soon be punching the holes in all lengths of the weather-stripping. This job requires four full-time workers for two weeks per month, and that amount of time will be increasing. To date, TRC has installed clips in 27,000 pieces of weather-stripping.
Patrick Walker, the administrator of TRC's Work Center operations, presented the award to Rob Loll of Dahlstrom.
Community Support Award: DeMarco Sisters School of Dance in Jamestown. About three years ago, the dance school started teaching an annual session of cheerleading classes for women with disabilities. Many individuals were excited to have the opportunity to participate in an activity they weren't able to try in high school. The year culminates in a performance during the area-wide cheerleading competition, where teams of all ages crowd into a gym and watch one another. In addition to teaching the women with disabilities their cheer routine, the DeMarco Sisters staff helps them work on their uniforms and hair ribbons. All of the other teams enthusiastically watch the special women on the DeMarco Sisters' cheerleading squad and the entire gym erupts into a standing ovation once they have finished.
Rosa Farrell accepted the award on behalf of the DeMarco Sisters School of Dance.
Employer of the Year: Red Lobster in Lakewood. Red Lobster has partnered with The Resource Center since 1996. Currently, Red Lobster employs two people with disabilities through TRC's Supported Employment Program. The restaurant consistently demonstrates great patience in resolving issues that arise and supports the advancement of its disabled employees. With one employee, restaurant managers worked with The Resource Center to help the employee improve his social interaction. To help the other employee learn new duties, restaurant managers gave her the opportunity to practice one task at a time so that she did not become overwhelmed by having to learn too much at once.
Accepting the award was Anthony Trussalo, who was the first worker with disabilities that Red Lobster hired in 1996 and who continues to work at the restaurant.
Health Provider of the Year: Ronda Russell of Falconer. Russell is the manager of TRC's outpatient behavioral health clinics in Dunkirk and Jamestown. A 19-year veteran in the mental health field, Russell was honored for being a dynamic leader who consistently develops quality within her program, and for being able to balance changes in mental health delivery while putting patient-centered care at the forefront.
Elmer Muench Volunteer of the Year: Karen Silzle of Jamestown. Silzle, an employee of The Resource Center since 1989, was cited for her volunteer efforts inside and outside TRC. She is active with the Chautauqua County Special Olympics swimming and golf programs. She served as the co-chair of the committee that organized TRC's annual week at Camp Onyahsa. For years, she has played an integral role in the Street JAM basketball tournament, and she also volunteered at the TRC Golf classic, bringing with her a woman with disabilities so that the woman could experience the event. Silzle also transports a woman with disabilities to and from a monthly board meeting so that the woman can participate, and she has included another woman with disabilities on a family shopping trip to Erie. When another woman with disabilities was terminally ill, Silzle made many trips to Buffalo to visit her. She also has served as a chaperone for the annual Distinguished Young Women Scholarship Program.
This award is named in honor of the late Elmer Muench, a longtime TRC volunteer.
Outstanding Achievement Award: Kyle Keller of Jamestown. Keller used to have a job as a member of a cleaning crew with TRC's Environmental Services, which provides janitorial services to area businesses. The evening hours prevented Keller from participating in some community activities that appealed to him and he wanted to get a job in the community. With help from TRC's Supported Employment Program, Keller obtained a job at The Home Depot in West Ellicott, and during his first few weeks, he was selected the Employee of the Month because of his attentiveness to his job and to customers. He is well liked by his co-workers and his new job has freed up his Monday nights so that Keller can engage in his passion – being involved with the Falconer Fire Department's Junior Fire Squad.
Edwin R. Roth Mental Health Award: Edward Christensen of Jamestown. Christensen was honored for the positive changes he has made in his life with support from TRC's "Passages" Personalized Recovery Oriented Services, which gives people with mental health challenges a variety of individualized services aimed at helping them become functioning, contributing members of the community. Christensen's dedication to his work has allowed him to improve his ability to effectively manage the symptoms of his mental illness and his addiction barriers, challenges he had faced since childhood. He has made such progress that he was invited to take part in this year's TRC Symposium at Chautauqua Institution, where he shared his story with those in attendance.
The award is named after the late Ed Roth, an official with the New York State Office of Mental Health, for his dedication to supporting people living with mental health challenges.
Success of the Year: Zachary Berlund of Celoron. One month before graduating from high school in 2010, Berlund sustained injuries in a motor vehicle accident that led to his right arm being amputated. He had been training to be a diesel mechanic, but following his injury he was unsure what he would with his life. Berlund came to The Resource Center and was given a job assembling boxes, and by his second week he was given a more challenging job. Though the job tasks were difficult at first, he eventually mastered them. In April of this year, he began working as a sewing machine operator on the contracts TRC performs for the federal government. With staff support, he has made adaptations so that he can operate the sewing machine, and he excels at his job. He recently took time to meet with a man who has a similar disability and had a positive impact on this man, who started to believe that he too could succeed. While still interested in mechanics, Berlund is considering college. He would also like to work with troubled youth or people who have suffered injuries similar to his own.
Bruce Walford Community Service Award: Carol Lorenc of Cherry Creek. Lorenc is a past president of The Resource Center's board of directors who also has served on TRC Foundation's board. Before, during and after her tenure on The Resource Center's Board, she has contacted the agency with creative ideas and opportunities for individuals with disabilities to have fun while also becoming more integrated within the community. She has utilized her expertise and professional contacts to facilitate linkages between TRC and a variety of organizations, as well as funding sources. Her affiliation with The Arts Council for Chautauqua County led to the development of TRC's "Creations" art program. Lorenc is active in her home community as well as greater Chautauqua County, frequently distributing brochures and flyers promoting various community events. She is active with area horse clubs and was instrumental in bringing the annual Currier and Ives horse-drawn sleigh rally to Chautauqua Institution. She also provides tours of the local Amish communities so that others may learn about the Amish way of life.
This award was created in honor of the late Bruce "Wally" Walford, who was the manager of TRC's Dunkirk Work Center Program. His widow, Laurel, was on hand to help present the award.
New York State Industries for the Disabled Outstanding Performer: Jeremy Swarthout of Jamestown. Each year, New York State Industries for the Disabled recognizes exceptional job performance by people with disabilities who are employed on NYSID contracts. Since 2005, Swarthout has been employed through TRC's contract to clean the rest area on Interstate 86 in the Town of Ellery. He has an impeccable record of punctuality and attendance and does a good job of keeping the interior and exterior of the building well maintained in all kinds of weather. Swarthout also is helpful in answering tourists' questions.
Michael Volk, TRC's director of rehabilitation and employment services, helped present the award to Swarthout.
Paul Cesana, The Resource Center's executive director, gave welcoming remarks at the beginning of the awards presentation, while Dr. Kathy Gradel, the vice president of The Resource Center's board of directors, gave the closing remarks. Steve Waterson, TRC's community relations director, was the master of ceremonies. Assisting in presenting the awards were TRC service recipients Doug Anderson and Lori Schneider.
Jane Young, site supervisor for TRC's Jamestown Rehabilitation Services, photographed the event. Victoria Trass Bardo, development and events manager for Filling the Gap, organized the event. Janelle Krueger was the Sign Language interpreter. The room was decorated with works made by individuals with disabilities in the Creations art program.
The Awards Selection Committee consisted of Ned Divine, a former TRC employee who works for the Western New York Developmental Disabilities Services Office; Greg Krauza, a member of TRC Foundation's board who works for the Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce; Dan Siracuse from DFT Communications; and Gary Bacon, a retired TRC employee.
They were supported by staff members Bardo; Nancy Ingram, assistant executive director; and Kathy Field, associate executive administrative assistant.
Besides The Resource Center and TRC Foundation, businesses that sponsored the 2012 Disability Awareness Awards Celebration included New York State Industries for the Disabled, Premier Consulting Associates, Support Enterprises, and TEAM Services.

Another error that can be encountered in a database management system is the failure to drop a table due to foreign key constraints. The error message looks something like this:
Error description: The primary key 'pk_athlete_code' referred by a foreign key 'fk_game_athlete_code' is not supposed to be dropped.
This error happens when you try to drop a table that is referred to by a foreign key. In this case, the name fk_game_athlete_code is pretty obvious and you can find out from it that the table in question is named "game". However, the name of the foreign key can be anything, so if you want to find the table that contains the foreign key, run the command:
SELECT class_name FROM db_index WHERE index_name = 'fk_game_athlete_code';
In order to drop the constraint, use the DROP FOREIGN KEY clause:
ALTER TABLE game DROP FOREIGN KEY fk_game_athlete_code;
Repeat the procedure for all the foreign keys that you know have "ON DELETE RESTRICT" (which is the default setting). Then, simply try to delete the table again. If it fails due to another foreign key, repeat the above procedure.
To avoid this problem, use ON DELETE CASCADE option when creating the foreign keys.
If you want to just modify the ON UPDATE or ON DELETE constraint values, the simplest way is to drop the foreign key using the DROP FOREIGN KEY command and then add it again using the ADD CONSTRAINT clause. Here is an example for the game table:
ALTER TABLE game ADD CONSTRAINT FOREIGN KEY ("athlete_code") REFERENCES "athlete"("code") ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE NO ACTION

"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. "
Haute Cuisine: Mango Mousse
The dish: A light, sweet mango mousse served in a chocolate shell and topped with fresh seasonal berries, from the caterer's south Florida regional menu.
The caterer: Air Chef, (800) 247-2433, www.airchef.com.
Air Chef opened for business six years ago with the goal of bringing uniform standards to aircraft catering. Cofounder Paul Schweitzer once ran the vendor-relations program at fractional-share provider NetJets and, in that capacity, he saw both the great and the truly awful when it came to catering services afforded business jet travelers. He likes to tell the story of one FBO's attempt at catering: throwing a McDonald's bag over the airport fence. Today, Air Chef is the largest private aviation caterer, managing 300 to 500 orders daily around the world. The company-which employs quality-assurance programs such as Six Sigma-provides single-point-of-contact service through a network of more than 800 affiliates. AirChef's 24/7 CaterLink features multilingual teams who can arrange to deliver food almost anywhere, even to obscure destinations. Air Chef also owns or manages kitchens in New York; Washington, D.C.; West Palm Beach, Jacksonville and Fort Lauderdale, Fla.; Dallas; Denver; Boston; Chicago; Oakland, Calif.; and London. The company directly employs 140. Air Chef tailors its menus to regional tastes. The mango mousse has been popular among Florida travelers.

Forty Weeks of Fitness | With Chelsea
Spinning, also referred to as cycling, is a safe way to achieve an effective workout throughout your pregnancy in a class setting.
Go prepared. Grab a towel and a bottle of water on your way to class. Arrive five minutes early to properly adjust your bike handles and seat, and introduce yourself to the instructor and let him/her know that you are expecting. Spinning instructors will help motivate you and keep you focused throughout your workout. During class pay special attention to your breathing and always remember to stay hydrated. Remember, you have control of your bike, thus the intensity of your workout. If you feel you need to lower the intensity, decrease your tempo or the tension on the wheel. Listen to the instructor's frequent reminders to keep your elbows slightly bent and shoulders relaxed while holding your abdominals tight. Provided you are feeling up to it, have fun with the change in positions from standing ("out of the saddle") to seated ("in the saddle"). As always, listen to your body. If it feels more comfortable to you, hang out in the saddle.
At some point in your pregnancy you might notice that your knees are having difficulty moving parallel to one another. Try engaging your inner thigh muscles to help pull your knees in towards the bike. If your knees start bowing outward to avoid hitting your growing abdomen, it may be time to choose another exercise like prenatal yoga, walking or swimming. Until that day have fun and enjoy the hour at your pace!

Did you survive Monday? Not going to lie, there was a little void in our household last night. No Bachelor, No Brad Womack to endlessly critique (that's the nice way to say criticize), no Emily to gush over and no Chantal to make Kool-Aid man jokes about. Sigh.
Thankfully, our boy Brad Womack knows how important knowing about his every move is to our well-being so he went out and got all Superman on the city of Austin. I'm guessing he did this after Emily got fed up with him for the day and made him go do laps around the block.
Either way B-rad came strong and saved some dude's life, according to PEOPLE. And by saving some dude's life, I mean calling 911 to report a panic attack. Yes, that's right a PANIC ATTACK. Are those really 911 worthy? I mean I've had a few panic attacks in my day but nothing where I needed paramedic assistance. I guess this one was PRETTY serious.
You can read about the whole shebang (get it? shebang. The Bachelor? No? Well I thought it was funny.) below.
Also, in other awesome news, I found out that the older sister of one of my amigas, went to law school at Tulane with a contestant on Ashley H.'s season of The Bachlorette. Reality Steve has this pic of Ben up on his site and some more details on him. Also, you can check out Reality Steve for more info on the contestants. AND… some pictures of Ashley filming in Vegas. I know, aren't you so surprised that they are taping in Vegas. So random but really cool and totally different, right?
From People.com
Bachelor Brad Womack Calls 911 for Man Having Panic Attack
Monday March 21, 2011 06:35 PM EDT
The drama continues for Bachelorstar Brad Womack.
The reality star jumped into action to help a fellow citizen in need on Monday, PEOPLE has learned. "Brad called 911 for a guy that was having a panic attack in the park near Brad," says an ABC spokesperson.
Earlier it was reported that Womack himself had been hospitalized in Austin, Texas, for a non-life threatening medical issue.
"The incident has nothing to do directly with Brad," says the rep. "He just made the call."
Last week it was revealed that Womack had picked single mom Emily Maynard as the winner onThe Bachelor.
Although the couple have admitted to going through a rough patch, they remain engaged.
