On Chicago's West Side, alternative food spaces such as gardens, restaurants and farmers markets are staking a physical and cultural claim in longstanding communities of color. Food is perhaps unique and more powerful than prior initiators of gentrification such as art due to its mundane, everyday qualities that intersect with its ability to uphold class distinctions. Using qualitative interviews, participant-observation and a literature review, I will examine how alternative food contributes to and is a form of resistance against the uprooting of longstanding Puerto Rican and Mexican communities on Chicago's West Side. Readers who have an investment in the alternative food movement must be conscientious of these tensions and consider resisting gentrification by creating inclusive, intercultural food spaces. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved.

The ecological other: Indians, invalids, and immigrants in U.S. environmental thought and literatureRay, Sarah Jaquette, 1976- (University of Oregon, September , 2009)[more][less]Ray, Sarah Jaquette, 1976- 2010-05-08T01:26:33Z 2010-05-08T01:26:33Z 2009-09 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/10352 xi, 233 p. : ill.

This dissertation argues that a fundamental paradox underlies U.S. environmentalism: even as it functions as a critique of dominant social and economic practices, environmentalism simultaneously reinforces many social hierarchies, especially with regard to race, immigration, and disability, despite its claims to recognize the interdependence of human and ecological well-being. This project addresses the related questions: In what ways does environmentalism--as a code of behavioral imperatives and as a set of rhetorical strategies--ironically play a role in the exploitation of land and communities? Along what lines--class, race, ability, gender, nationality, age, and even "sense of place"--do these environmental codes and discourses delineate good and bad environmental behavior? I contend that environmentalism emerged in part to help legitimize U.S. imperial ambitions and support racialized and patriarchal conceptions of national identity. Concern about "the environment" made anxieties about communities of color more palatable than overt racism. Furthermore, "environmentalism's hidden attachments" to whiteness and Manifest Destiny historically aligned the movement with other repressive ideologies, such as eugenics and strict anti-immigration. These "hidden attachments" exist today, yet few have analyzed their contemporary implications, a gap this project fills. In three chapters, I detail nineteenth-century environmentalism's influence on contemporary environmental thought. Each of these three illustrative chapters investigates a distinct category of environmentalism's "ecological others": Native Americans, people with disabilities, and undocumented immigrants. I argue that environmentalism defines these groups as "ecological others" because they are viewed as threats to nature and to the American national body politic. The first illustrative chapter analyzes Native American land claims in Leslie Marmon Silko's 1991 novel, Almanac of the Dead . The second illustrative chapter examines the importance of the fit body in environmental literature and U.S. adventure culture. In the third illustrative chapter, I integrate literary analysis with geographical theories and methods to investigate national security, wilderness protection, and undocumented immigration in the borderland. In a concluding fourth chapter, I analyze works of members of the excluded groups discussed in the first three chapters to show how they transform mainstream environmentalism to bridge social justice and ecological concerns. This dissertation contains previously published material.

Oak savanna was a dominant ecosystem of Oregon's Willamette Valley prior to Euro-American settlement but has declined precipitously due to urbanization, agriculture, and reduced fire regimes. Some areas have retained their savanna structure while others have succeeded into woodland or forest. I investigated the relationships of current community type to edaphic (bulk density, texture, carbon, nitrogen, depth, and pH) and topographic (slope and heatload) factors at seven sites using analysis of variance and principal components analysis. Results indicate that edaphic and topographic conditions strongly influence successional pathways in former oak savanna, but the specific effects depend on site location. Soil moisture was also measured seasonally at three of the sites in community types representing the current successional stages. Results indicate that dry conditions restrict succession to dense forest, and that soil depth is an important control over soil moisture within the soil profile.

Synthesizing case studies, scientific research and policies papers, this theoretical work adopts the term "agrofuels" coined by the peasant organization La Vía Campesina to reflect the true nature of these commodities – one of dispossession and ecological destruction. This paper documents the falsity of the claim that the fuels are "sustainable" by presenting facts linking them to deforestation, loss and pollution of water sources, destruction of important biodiversity and the knowledge that maintains this diversity, as well as economic exploitation. Most importantly, I verify that the adoption of agrofuel expansion exacerbates gendered patterns of exclusion and, in most cases, worsens women's positions within the communities targeted for feedstock production with regard to land tenure, household energy maintenance, independent income and physical integrity. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved. agrofuels energy gender metabolic rift sustainable women Engendering the Metabolic Rift: A Feminist Political Ecology of Agrofuels Electronic Thesis or Dissertation

Panel data (i.e. longitudinal data) are highly desirable for preference estimation. Fortuitously, the diaries of birding excursions by eBird members provide a rich source of spatial data on trips taken, over time by the same individuals, to a variety of birding destinations. Origin and destination data can be combined with exogenous species prevalence information. These combined data sources permit estimation of utility-theoretic choice models that allow derivation of the marginal utilities of avian biodiversity measures as well as the marginal utility of net income (i.e. consumption of other goods and services). Ratios of these marginal utilities yield marginal willingness to pay (MWTP) estimates for numbers of bird species (or numbers of species of different types, in richer specifications). MWTP for levels of other attributes of birding destinations are also derived (e.g. ecosystem type, management regime, seasonal variations, a time trend).\\ The chapters are organized as follows: Chapter 2 is a stand-alone paper that demonstrates the feasibility of a travel-cost based random utility model with the eBird data. This chapter focuses on measuring the total number of bird species at each birding hotspot in Washington and Oregon states. This chapter does not differentiate among types of birders beyond using their recent birding activities in an analysis of habit formation or variety-seeking behavior. For this model, beyond past behavior, a representative consumer is postulated. Chapter 3 starts from the basic specifications identified in Chapter 2 and explores heterogeneous preferences among consumers as well as their preferences for species richness and for different categories of birds. This chapter explores whether different types of birds are relatively more attractive to different types of birders (for example, by gender or by age or by neighborhood characteristics and educational attainment). Chapter 4 is an extension of the work in Chapter 3 to explore how changing site attributes in the face of climate change effects birder welfare.

Evaluating the Energy Returns of Investment-Based Incentive Programs: The Case of Oregon's Business Energy Tax CreditsHoran, Kevin (University of Oregon, September , 2011)[more][less]Horan, Kevin 2012-03-02T02:02:57Z 2012-03-02T02:02:57Z 2011-09 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/11992 x, 59 p. Governments around the world provide financial incentives to encourage renewable energy generation and energy conservation. The primary goals of these efforts are to mitigate climate change and improve long-term energy independence by reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The consensus in the energy incentive literature is that performance-based incentives, which fund energy output, are more cost efficient than investment-based incentives, which fund capital input. This thesis uses a 30-year case study of Oregon's Business Energy Tax Credit (BETC) program to argue that investment-based energy incentives are moderately cost efficient relative to other state performance-based incentives and can be an effective driver of clean energy deployment. However, this analysis also finds that there are significant opportunities to improve the cost efficiency of investment-based energy incentive programs by targeting least cost projects. Namely, 50% of the first year kilowatt-hour electricity returns of the BETC program could have been achieved at 10% of the cost. These lessons from historical BETC spending should guide policymakers, NGO.s, and businesses who aim to make targeted use of fiscally-constrained energy incentive programs.

Migration flows have been systematically larger the higher the proportion of the population in urban areas in the destination county relative to the origin county. Richer models demonstrate that the effects of a number of different types of extreme weather events (i.e. flooding, heat waves, and wildfires) in the origin county on county-to-county migration flows are statistically significantly greater when the destination county is more urbanized. The effect of the number of fatalities from flooding and heat waves in the origin county on migration flows is also amplified when the destination county is more urbanized. Thus it appears that even in a developed country like the U.S. extreme weather events still exacerbate rural-to-urban migration flows. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved. extreme events migration Extreme Weather Events and Rural-Urban Migration Electronic Thesis or Dissertation
Fluid Boundaries: The Social Construction and Memory of Future Catastrophic Environmental Risk in a Community on the Oregon CoastShtob, Daniel (University of Oregon, October 27, 2016)[more][less]York, Richard Shtob, Daniel 2016-10-27T18:39:04Z 2016-10-27T18:39:04Z 2016-10-27 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/20459 The Oregon coast is facing the dual perils of climate change and the catastrophic Cascadia subduction zone earthquake and tsunami, yet many communities remain unprepared. Using qualitative interviews with residents of Coos Bay, Oregon, this study traces how communities facing these perils socially construct their visions of change by "remembering the future" and how this future memory influences unsettlement that, in turn, can trigger revision of strategies of action to deal with environmental risk. Participants understood these risks through three interrelated themes: analogy to familiar circumstances such as regular winter flooding, narratives of isolation and self-reliance based in collective history, and visions of symbolic preparedness. Each of these themes drew the conversation away from the material reality of environmental catastrophe, reducing relative unsettlement. Since the way that communities collectively understand environmental risk may influence preparatory action, these observations can help to explain the disjunction between knowledge of risks and response. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved.

"The Flukishness of Being Related": Biosemiotics, Naturecultures, and Irony in the Art of Nina KatchadourianLombardo, Lisa (University of Oregon, September 29, 2014)[more][less]Westling, Louise Lombardo, Lisa 2014-09-29T17:48:52Z 2014-09-29T17:48:52Z 2014-09-29 http://hdl.handle.net/1794/18388 This thesis contends that Nina Katchadourian's oeuvre can be read as subtly breaking down problematic assumptions about nature in Western thought. The second chapter draws on biosemiotics, which redefines life as semiosis, and trans-corporeality, which reconceptualizes the human body as inseparable from the environment, to show how Katchadourian's art routinely calls attention to non-human animal and material agencies. The third chapter demonstrates how Katchadourian's work implicitly reinforces Donna Haraway's idea of naturecultures, which contends that nature and culture are mutually implicated and inextricably intertwined, through a close reading of two of Katchadourian's pieces, Natural Crossdressing and Mended Spiderwebs #19 (Laundry Line). The final chapter compares the use of irony in two pieces that comment on Western animal classification--Chloe, by Katchadourian, and Scala Naturae, by Mark Dion--contending that Katchadourian's piece demonstrates what Bronislaw Szerszynski terms an "ironic ecology." en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved. biosemiotics environmental art ironic ecology naturecultures Nina Katchadourian trans-corporeality "The Flukishness of Being Related": Biosemiotics, Naturecultures, and Irony in the Art of Nina Katchadourian Electronic Thesis or Dissertation M.S. masters Environmental Studies Program University of Oregon

The merging of food studies with the well-established tradition of study abroad, then, provides a platform for incorporating critical thinking and fresh perspectives into the discourse surrounding study abroad. How does food studies abroad reflect the opportunities and reify the concerns posed by study abroad in general? I explore this topic through a case study of a University of Oregon food studies abroad program, Food and Culture in Italy, looking specifically at students' motivations, on-site experience, and perceived outcomes. I employ the lenses of identity, consumption, and experiential learning to discuss the trends that emerge from the data and conclude with a series of recommendations for moving thoughtfully and critically forward with food studies abroad programming. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved.

The recent biotechnological boom allowing for the production of human-animal hybrids (chimeras) provides the kind of visualization of these interconnectivities that can help instigate a reconception of the human—as not human at all, but rather posthuman. This study looks at the presence of these human-animal hybrids in popular art media, specifically: the horror film, Splice (Dir. Natali 2009); the YA novel, Inhuman (Falls 2013); and the comic, Sweet Tooth (Lemire 2009-2013). This thesis argues that the human-animal hybrid figure exhibits utopian horror, or the use of horror to produce new, better, ways of conceptualizing human-animal relationships, ones that acknowledge our already posthuman plurality of self. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved.

The various distribution strategies open to small-scale local growers each require their own kind of work. In determining how to allocate their time and energy, growers consider these activities alongside the benefits that each distribution strategy offers. Certain distribution arrangements with smaller bulk buyers like restaurants and community grocery stores, which I term "direct wholesale" arrangements, offer the benefit of providing long-term, close relationships. These arrangements provide value that more than compensates for the work of establishing and maintaining these arrangements in the first place. In this context, these close-ties developed through "direct wholesale" provide the best platform for the viability of a small-scale, local farm in Eugene, Oregon. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved. embeddedness local food distribution small-scale growers social ties Growing Relationships: Social Ties in Eugene, Oregon Local Food Distribution Electronic Thesis or Dissertation M.S. masters Environmental Studies Program University of Oregon

As urbanization increases, there is growing pressure upon derelict and contaminated sites (i.e. brownfields) for new development. Creatively (re)considering these post-industrial spaces is essential to ecological health. Ecology, as philosopher Felix Guattari has observed, is not a simple equation but a complex of relations. As the landscape plays a critical role in mediating the human-nature relationship, the recomposition of our landscapes may enable a new quality of (postmodern, urban) life. Just outside of Greater London, Gunpowder Park provides an example of a munitions testing site that is now a park for arts, science, and nature. The new alliances developing on this site stress an artistic perspective and thus gesture toward dwelling differently. Synthesized from bioregionalism and Guattari' s ethico-aesthetic paradigm, reinhabitation is developed as a place-engaged, politically-active, ethically-attentive, and aesthetically-inspired lifestyle through which to take responsibility for our landscapes and seek new relationships with ourselves and the world around us.

The case contains themes of rural poverty, indigenous agency, environmental protection, and economic development; therefore, any potential outcome has far-reaching and deeper implications for the local rural and indigenous residents but also for Taiwanese society's future approaches to similar development projects which appear to pit economic development against environmental protection and indigenous rights. Through qualitative interviews, this case study examines dynamics of power and agency from an environmental justice standpoint, focusing on the themes of how landscape perception is shaped and utilized by outsiders to gain agency and how reliance of rural communities upon the state serve as a limiting force in their development. Such dynamics have shaped responses to the Miramar case and can reinforce existing inequalities if not considered critically. en_US University of Oregon All Rights Reserved. development environmental justice Miramar Taiwan tourism Imaginative Geographies and State Reliance: Examining Taiwan's Shanyuan Bay and Miramar Resort Electronic Thesis or Dissertation M.S. masters Environmental Studies Program University of Oregon

Presence of these troublesome insects has resulted in the proposal of controversial policies. For example, the state of Ohio petitioned the EPA for a FIFRA Section 18 emergency exemption to use the insecticide propoxur, a neurotoxin, to treat bed bug infestations in the state. In this thesis, I analyzed public comments for the exemption, task force reports, and media to examine how health and the urban indoor environment are framed in this decision-making process. Though bed bugs carry stigma, those who have them are not overtly blamed for the pest. However, an inability to eliminate them effectively is situated as a lack of personal responsibility.

(some col.) Global climate negotiations have been at a standstill for over a decade now over the issue of distributing the responsibility of mitigating climate change among countries. During the past few years, countries such as India and China - the so-called emerging economies that were under no obligation to mitigate under the Kyoto Protocol - have increasingly come under pressure to accept limits comparable to those for industrialized countries. These countries, in turn, have strongly resisted these pressures. My dissertation examines India's participation in these ongoing climate negotiations. Based on qualitative interviews with relevant Indian officials, textual analysis and participant observation, I tell the story of why and how this so-called emerging economy has been resisting a cap on its emissions despite being one of the most vulnerable countries to the consequences of climate change. I draw upon the literatures of environmental justice, international relations, postcolonialism and political ecology to develop my dissertation and adopt a self-reflexive approach in my analysis. The need for global cooperation to address global environmental issues has arguably provided greater bargaining power to countries formerly marginalized in the global political economy. Following the dynamics of North-South environmental politics, India's climate politics consists of utilizing this power to increase its access to global resources as well as to hold hegemonic industrialized countries accountable for their historical and continuing exploitation of the environmental commons. A key aspect of India's climate politics consists of self-identification as a developing country. Developed countries with higher cumulative and per capita emissions are seen to have the primary responsibility to mitigate climate change and to provide financial and technological support to developing countries to mitigate and adapt to climate change. Developing countries are seen to have a right to pursue development defined as economic growth. The climate crisis is thus seen by my respondents as an opportunity to address the unequal status quo between developed and developing countries. I suggest that this crisis also creates opportunities to redefine development beyond a narrow focus on economic growth. This may be enabled if the demand for justice in an international context is extended to the domestic sphere.

The research features a collaboration case study of sixteen federal and state agency and NGO stakeholders. The collaboration is conducting a ten-year, basin-scale monitoring project of salmonid habitat restoration projects in the Middle Fork John Day (MFJD) River basin in Eastern Oregon. The monitoring project is known as an intensively monitored watershed (IMW), one of sixteen throughout the Pacific Northwest. The research is guided by the following question: How do leadership dynamics in the MFJD IMW collaborative governance structure facilitate effective collaborative process or create limitations to that process? This study uses qualitative research methods in evaluating multiple research sources. Insights from this study may prove valuable in providing guidance on effectively structuring and managing basin-scale collaborative habitat monitoring projects, including future IMW projects.

Within the Eugene-Springfield, OR urban area lawn management ranges from intensive (high: weekly mowing, summer irrigation, herbicide and fertilizer application) to non-intensive techniques (low: spring and fall mowing, clippings left on lawn). I examined if these two regimes affect soil carbon content and vertical distribution after at least 20 years of consistent management. I sampled 17 lawns in June 2013 and four remnant prairies in midsummer. At each site, I extracted three to five soil cores to one-meter depth. Soils were separated by horizon, with horizon depth and volume measured. Measurement of soil carbon-nitrogen (CN) content revealed low-management lawns stored more CN at < 46 cm depth, but a trend of increasing CN with depth in high-management lawns.

This thesis examines the roots of deforestation in Malawi and how it has been problematized and turned into an accepted discourse of an impending crisis. I argue that deforestation in Malawi has been prioritized in order to suit the needs of Malawi's powerful elite and does not reflect the real and urgent problems of Malawi's small farmers. Deforestation has been explained by narratives which suggest that the farmers are to blame either because they have over-consumed fuelwood without replanting or have cut too many trees for expanding agriculture. These narratives not only mask the ultimate cause of deforestation, which is unequal access to land, but also deflect attention from more immediate problems. In recent surveys, however, Malawi's farmers have been clear about their priorities. Deforestation is a concern, but poverty and lack of food security are their chief problems.

Type: Improvement
Status: Open
Priority: Major
Resolution: Unresolved
Affects Version/s: V3
Fix Version/s: not determined
Component/s: installation
Operating System: All
Platform: All
Issuezilla Id:6,784
Batches are common in the UNIX world and had been popular in the DOS world, too.
But in the Windows world, batches are something administrators don't like: The
chance is just too high that they break. The reason is that the batch language
is not well suited for exceptions. Batches are potentially instable. Also when
running they open that ugly DOS BOX, which nobody wants to see and (worse!)
could break using CTRL-BREAK (with undeterministic result, depending on the
currently executed command within the batch). And worse, the batch language
itself has several differences between the Windows versions...
On Windows it is typical to have an EXE file. In the Java world it is typical to
have a JAR file. Both can be supplied with excellent exception handling and can
optionally run without showing any UI.
So it would be really great if there would be no batches but EXE or JAR files
that drive the command line interface. I do not see anything in the batch that
can be done in a batch but not in a JAR file. Since we are in the Java universe
let's use Java.
I assume this is a request to have a way to start the server without using
the asadmin.bat batch file on Windows?
Presumably when typing commands in a command window it's fine to use the
asadmin.bat batch file?
We're unlikely to provide a native asadmin.exe to replace asadmin.bat,
and the Windows jar file integration makes it unsuitable for command line
use, although we could consider a jar file to start the default domain.
Please check again my original proposal. I wrote that there is no need for a
batch since all it does can be written in plain old Java. So my proposal
actually is to replace the platform dependent batches by executable JARs.
See, Windows people will accept EXE or JAR. If you don't like to provide EXE
then provide JAR. But don't force them to use Batches. This is just not good
style in the Windows universe.
What exactly is the gist of this? What batch file do you want to replace?
Scripts are directly editable and very very easy for an end-user to modify.
Java jars are binary and are a much much bigger deal for an end-user to change.
What if you want to run the java program with -Xmx1024 - how are you going to do
that? What about the -Xrs option? Without that option GF running as a service
will stop the moment you logout.
If asadmin is the complaint – you can run it as a jar right now like so:
java -jar modules\admin-cli.jar some-command some-arg ...
I just downloaded and installed V3 via the official installer.
If that is what you are talking about – I agree. The shortcuts are flaky.
They start up a temporary DOS box that is minimized. I didn't notice so I
double-clicked twice and ended up with 2 running instances of V3!
This could be improved. There are ways to run without a visible DOS box I believe.
Reassigning to installer
One must understand that each platform has its standards for how things have to
work like. On UNIX, this is using batches for configuration, installation,
startup und daemon control. On Windows it it not. On Windows, Microsoft is
providing different binary APIs for that. So a program that likes to get
accepted by Windows users, or even more wants to apply for a "Windows Logo"
certification, must not use batches for anything but instead utilize that
different APIs.
The reason is that using the APIs much better integrates the application into
the overall Windows environment. It does "feel" like Windows when using their
style, while it feels "strange" to see a script run. Also using their style
provides MUCH improved stability. For example, their service API is unparallel
and gives Windows much better control of a service's current state than any
script on UNIX will give on daemons. Windows knows exactly in what state a
service really is, whether it is shutting down actually or asks for more time
while doing that and so on. Batches cannot provide this information. But it is
not only about services, it is much more about stability in general.
Microsoft clearly defines that configuration information is to be stored in the
registry. So if you like to configure RAM or other options, this must be stored
in registry. It gets there using a GUI, and the program will pick it from there
using a binary API. The customer shall never fumble around with editing
scripts. Why? Because he likely will break the script by incident.
To sum up, Windows has a completely different design regarding the complete
life cycle control of a service. Batches are far beyond what Windows wants and
feels to Windows users like "stone age applications", but not
like "professional services provided by people that understand makes a program
a REAL windows program".
Really reassign.
If there's a way we can write a Java program that avoids bringing up a
Command window, we should consider that.
If the only solution is to write native Windows code, we should close
this bug.
To make it more clear: It's less a problem that window is shown (native Windows
applications also shows windows, hence the name of the operating system ),
but more a problem of using batches. Batches are likely to break. Why not
writing a simple executable JAR file containing a main-class entry which pulls
configuration from registry using Preferences API? That would be 100% pure Java
AND would fulfil the constraint that configuration must not be found in
batches. It would be more accepted by Windows users from their point of view,
and it would be able to run on ANY operating system, while a batch obviously
will only run on some.
I'm starting to get a little bit lost. The discussion is too abstract. What
specifically are you talking about? Is it that "asadmin.bat" even exists? Or
is it that the installer provides these clunky little scripts that start and
stop the server?
In the former case, we are providing a service to users. Asadmin is a **command
line tool**. It is supposed to be used in a "DOS box". We provide a fully
featured GUI as well – the Admin GUI normally found at localhost:4848. Asadmin
allows you to easily do things like run JDK6 for V3 and run JDK5 for other
things, etc.
This is analogous to what Microsoft does. E.g. managing Services
GUI: "Rt-Click My Computer/Manage/Services&Applications/Services"
Command Line: sc
You can run "asadmin" easily without a batch file. Simply run it like so – no
batch involved:
C:\Users\bnevins>java -jar e:\glassfishv3\glassfish\modules\admin-cli.jar
Waiting for DAS to start .............
Started domain: domain1
Domain location: E:\glassfishv3\glassfish\domains\domain1
Log file: E:\glassfishv3\glassfish\domains\domain1\logs\server.log
Admin port for the domain: 4848
Command start-domain executed successfully.
Here is a link that describes how to run a script with no window...
It is ok to have CLI tools, but this is not about the form of tool but about
the form of implementation: Batch files vs. standalone binaries.
It's not about one particular batch file, it is about using batch files at all.
Most distracting is applient.bat and asadmin.bat being batch files, but
certainly every other batch falls into the same category.
I never said that microsoft does not use CLI tools or batches on their own, but
that it is uncommon. The fact that microsoft provides one doesn't make it more
common tot he average Windows user or administrator, and doesn't change their
own logo criteria.
The main problem is that a batch can break. The fact that it showns a DOS box
is just an unwanted (and correctable) side effect.
And: There is a big difference between a real Windows service and wrapping
something behaving LIKE a service (read the Windows service API to get an
understanding of the difference – GF just supports SOME of the needed events,
while Windows users expect ALL to be supported). Lots of threads in this forum
are based solely on the fact that GF does not work like a "real" service, but
just comes with a service that controls GF. That problems will be gone as soon
as you understand that you must not somehow wrap Java to make it look like
Windows, but that you must start do DESIGN FOR Windows to make people happy.
That IS possible in Java, and it does not necessarily break compatibility with
other platforms. But you need to learn how to do it and you then must do it.
Otherwise it will always feal like a "impurity" on Windows.
We lost several customers since they where unhappy with the "strange" felling
of GF, actually, and all we ask for is just to get rid of batches in the first
place. Is that so non-understandable?
Instead of java.exe, javaw.exe can be used to suppress the command window @startup time. javaw.exe
uses WinMain() as the entry point.
Bulk update to change fix version to "not determined" for all issues still open but with a fix version for a released version.

Just Run That Escape Plan By Me Again....
"It's almost tragic that the most badass escaped slave story most people know is Django Unchained. Because in real life, not only did slaves frequently escape, but they often did it without help from free whites, and without murdering several hundred people. Instead, what they had was cleverness and the audacity to try ridiculous plans that by all rights should never have worked." [SLCracked but a decent effort]

Notification Reminder App
When I first got the Droid Maxx I kind of struggled to get use to not having an LED notification which was easy to spot across the room. I would sometimes miss an email l or text because I had the phone set down and left the room not hearing the notification, was busy, or just forgot to look. I loved the active notification but still wished there was an LED as well. I came across the vibration notifier app a couple months ago and have have found it real handy for ensuring that notifications are not missed for too long. It allows you to set vibration or sound (or both) reminders for any app which creates a notification. It has a lot of options and works real well.

Re: Notification Reminder App
If you really miss the LED notifications ( Like I did ) take a look at Noled.
Does a great job of putting whatever you want on the standby screen in whatever color you want, how ever many you want, and many other customization to select from.
Great for me and it is much better than the led blinking I had on the RAZR.

Re: Notification Reminder App
I tried the noled app and found it no easier to spot than the active display. My old razr maxx hd led was easy to spot across the room from any angle, and the problem I have with the active display is that it isn't. The vibrate/tone reminder works best for me, provided it is loud enough above the ambient noise of the room.

This review is from: SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 7950 DirectX 11 100352-2L 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
Pros: Well the card ran most games that I play quite well on max settings, but still not flawlessly. I had higher expectations, especially with the money I spent on it, but it was still a good card.
Cons: I only got to use it for barely 4 months until it died on me. Occasionally I can boot into windows, long enough to diagnose that the card is the culprit, and then it crashes my computer. I'm lucky if I can get it to POST anymore, my computer that is.
Other Thoughts: Probably wouldn't buy again, I'm hoping that Newegg helps me out in getting a refund and not replacement that'll just do the same thing in another 4 months!READ FULL REVIEW

Nexus 4 on Straight Talk (AT&T SIM) getting No Service
Hopefully you guys can help with my problem. Here's the situation:
I had an old Centura phone with Straight Talk ($45/mo plan) for the last three months. I decided to upgrade to a Nexus 4. I went with the T-Mobile SIM because I read that I can get faster internet speeds with that over the AT&T card. I put the new SIM into my unlocked Nexus 4, transferred my number to the new SIM from my Centura, and within a few hours, everything was up and running on my Nexus. However, I discovered in the morning that I get terrible service at my workplace. I went ahead and ordered a AT&T micro SIM and it arrived last night. This morning, I removed the T-Mobile SIM from my phone, installed the AT&T SIM, and begin the number transfer service on the Straight Talk website.
However, when I turn on my Nexus 4, I'm told that I'm not getting ANY service from AT&T. The triangle is completely empty. This doesn't make sense, because I can see an AT&T tower from my office window. I don't think it's the APN settings, because when I was installing the T-Mobile SIM, I could still get service even without entering the correct APN settings. The service bars were greyed out, but they were there--my phone was picking up the signal from the towers.
That isn't the case now. Did I miss something? I even removed my old SIM card from my Straight Talk account, but that shouldn't do anything. The SIM card should pick up the AT&T network regardless, right? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. I went ahead the tried the settings in the stickied AT&T APN Settings thread in this sub-forum, and that didn't change anything.

Re: Nexus 4 on Straight Talk (AT&T SIM) getting No Service
For the record any transfer will take sometime. Sucks waiting but its worth it if it will save you a ton of money.

New HCFA guidelines delayed for six months
Doctors have an extra six months to learn to use the new guidelines for documenting evaluation and management (E/M) codes in Medicare bills.
In response to concerns that doctors have not had enough time to learn to use the new guidelines, HCFA announced last month that it will require physicians to use them starting July 1. They were supposed to take effect Jan. 1.
HCFA officials emphasized that until then, it will still require that E/M services are medically necessary and supported by documentation in the patient's medical record. Meanwhile, some of the documentation guidelines are in the process of being revised.
Starting July 1, physician bills to Medicare will be audited both retrospectively and prospectively, and physicians will be denied payment for the billed service if they don't comply with the new guidelines.
For a summary of the guidelines, see articles in the November and December issues of ACP Observer, go to ACP Online (www.acponline.org) or to HCFA's web page on the Internet (www.hcfa.gov).

And with bowls, invariably, comes upsets. Not to say that upsets are mutually exclusive to bowls but there is something about the neutral field, the by-partisan crowd that makes it exciting and has a special feel to it.
Since some of the matchups are 6-6 and 7-5 teams matching up against each other, the upsets wouldn't be upsets in the classical sense. But here are the 10 picks for the most likely upsets of this bowl year,
