Since you asked... probably the string-constants library should not be used for those error messages, since none of the other error messages are translated, but since they are already being used it seems fine to continue (at least to me). Robby

Windows Device Console (Devcon.exe)
DevCon (Devcon.exe), the Device Console, is a command-line tool that displays detailed information about devices on computers running Windows. You can use DevCon to enable, disable, install, configure, and remove devices.
DevCon runs on Microsoft Windows 2000 and later versions of Windows.
Where can I download DevCon? |
DevCon (Devcon.exe) is included when you install the WDK, Visual Studio, and the Windows SDK for desktop apps. For information about downloading the kits, see Windows Hardware Downloads. Windows Driver Kit (WDK) 8 and Windows Driver Kit (WDK) 8.1 (installation path) %WindowsSdkDir%\tools\x64\devcon.exe %WindowsSdkDir%\tools\x86\devcon.exe %WindowsSdkDir%\tools\arm\devcon.exe Note The Visual Studio environment variable, %WindowsSdkDir%, represents the path to the Windows kits directory where the kits are installed, for example, C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1.
This section includes:
What you can do with DevCon
Windows driver developers and testers can use DevCon to verify that a driver is installed and configured correctly, including the proper INF files, driver stack, driver files, and driver package. You can also use the DevCon commands (enable, disable, install, start, stop, and continue) in scripts to test the driver.
DevCon is a command-line tool that performs device management functions on local computers and remote computers.
Note To run DevCon commands on a remote computer, the Group Policy setting must allow the Plug and Play service to run on the remote computer. On computers that run Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Group Policy disables remote access to the service by default. On computers that run WDK 8.1 and WDK 8, the remote access is unavailable.
Devcon features include:
- Display driver and device info DevCon can display the following properties of drivers and devices on local computers, and remote computers (running Windows XP and earlier):
- Hardware IDs, compatible IDs, and device instance IDs. These identifiers are described in detail in Device Identification Strings.
- Device setup classes
- The devices in a device setup class
- INF files and device driver files
- Details of driver packages
- Hardware resources
- Device status
- Expected driver stack
- Third-party driver packages in the driver store
Search for devices DevCon can search for installed and uninstalled devices on a local or remote computer by hardware ID, device instance ID, or device setup class.
Change device settings DevCon can change the status or configuration of Plug and Play (PnP) devices on the local computer in the following ways:
- Enable a device
- Disable a device
- Update drivers (interactive and noninteractive)
- Install a device (create a devnode and install software)
- Remove a device from the device tree and delete its device stack
- Rescan for Plug and Play devices
- Add, delete, and reorder the hardware IDs of root-enumerated devices
- Change the upper and lower filter drivers for a device setup class
- Add and delete third-party driver packages from the driver store
- Restart the device or computer DevCon can restart a local device, reboot the local system on demand, or reboot the local system if required for another DevCon operation.
DevCon source code
The DevCon source code is also available so that you can examine the methods that DevCon uses to retrieve and change setup and configuration data. DevCon illustrates the use of general setup functions, device installation functions, and PnP Configuration Manager functions. The source code for the Device Console (DevCon) Tool is available in the Windows driver samples repository on GitHub.

The foreign-policy theme that should dominate this year's presidential campaign is "American renewal." Each candidate claims to have a strategy for halting the nation's decline, but their versions often amount to "more of the same" — which ain't gonna work.
For a bracing discussion of what a revival of U.S. power would actually require over the next few decades, I recommend a new book called "Strategic Vision," by Zbigniew Brzezinski, the former national security adviser to President Jimmy Carter. Though he worked for a president who came to symbolize American "malaise" in the late 1970s, Brzezinski has always been on the hawkish, "realist" side of his party, and in this book, he is especially critical of status-quo policies.
A wake-up line in Brzezinski's book is that there are "alarming similarities" between America today and the Soviet Union just prior to its fall, including a "gridlocked governmental system incapable of enacting serious policy revisions," a back-breaking military budget, and a failing "decade-long attempt to conquer Afghanistan."
The gist of Brzezinski's strategy is that America must become strong enough to act as "a responsible partner to the rising and increasingly assertive East." He sees a future U.S. role as a "balancer" and "conciliator" among Asian nations that, left to themselves, will get into messy fights.
To achieve this revival, Brzezinski argues that the U.S. needs to work closely with a democratizing Russia and Turkey (assuming they continue on that path) to build what he calls a "larger West." If the U.S. tries too boldly to go it alone, or too meekly to accommodate the rising powers, it's headed for trouble.
Here we come to the heart of the political debate in this presidential campaign: What does American "strength" mean in the 21st century? Is it a recovery of the kind of power and prerogative the U.S. had, say, in the Reagan years? Or is it something more aligned with changes in the global balance? Brzezinski would favor the latter, but let's look at what the candidates are saying.
In every GOP debate, you hear insistent calls for a restoration of American power from the front-runners, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich. The specific GOP prescriptions mostly involve muscle-flexing: more military pressure on Iran; more CIA covert action against Iran, Syria and other rivals; tougher trade policies toward China. The implicit theme is that President Obama's efforts to mend fences with allies and work through the U.N. are signs of weakness — and that a strong America must lead from the front.
The problem with the GOP version is that America is already muscle-bound to a fault, and to exercise power effectively it needs good allies. If Brzezinski is right, and a "larger West" requires cooperation with Russia and Turkey, then some of the GOP rhetoric about exceptionalism is counterproductive — little more than vain boasting. Obama has actually begun the job of cultivating these new partners, with his 2009 "Russia reset" and his patient diplomacy with Turkey.
The GOP candidates sometimes seem disdainful of global realpolitik, and they voice the romantic, go-it-alone ethos of the neoconservative wing of the party. Romney, for example, dismissed the idea of negotiating peace with the Taliban — a position even some of his own advisers reject. On the Middle East, Gingrich disdains the two-state solution that every other major nation (including Israel) favors — calling the Palestinians an "invented" people who, presumably, don't deserve a state. That kind of rhetoric is so far outside the mainstream that it's the strategic equivalent of walking off the plank.
As for Obama's strategic vision, he talks a better game than he plays. He understands that the U.S. economy needs rebuilding, but despite the ringing agenda he laid out once more in Tuesday's State of the Union address, he hasn't enacted the strong policies that would deal with debt, decaying infrastructure and bad public education. Blaming congressional deadlock isn't a strategy, it's an excuse. Obama was elected to make government work again. If he can't do it, someone else should try.
A similar criticism applies to Obama's foreign policy. He raised hopes at home and abroad because he proposed to resolve festering problems, such as the Palestinian issue. In reality, he flopped. His Afghanistan policy is a muddle, and that's being charitable. In this campaign, Obama needs to explain how he will lead America past the old slogans and status-quo policies into an era of genuine national revival.

A Chinese envoy visiting Damascus has called on all sides in Syria to stop the violence.
Vice-foreign minister Zhai Jun was in the Syrian capital for a meeting with president Bashar Assad, and said he is hopeful the authorities will restore stability soon.
He said China was "extremely concerned" about the escalation of the crisis in Syria.
China along with Russia has refused to condemn Syria over the crackdown on an uprising now in its 11th month, which according to the UN killed more than 5,400 people last year alone.
China this week voted against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning human rights violations in Syria.
The vote followed China's recent veto of a similar resolution in the UN Security Council.
"China has no selfish interests," Mr Jun said, defending the Security Council veto. He added that China's "objective and just" position on Syria stemmed from its basic interest in the welfare of the Syrian people.
Mr Jun urged Syrians to participate in a planned referendum on the country's new draft constitution that would create a multi-party system in Syria, which has been ruled by the Assad family for 40 years.
Assad's call for a referendum, set for February 26, has raised the question of how a nationwide vote could be held at a time when many areas see daily battles betweenSyrian troops and rebel soldiers. The opposition has opposed the referendum.
Mr Jun said the referendum "would be in the interest of the Syrian people".
Only in light of stability could Syria conduct comprehensive political reforms, he added.

When we asked Zane what he most wanted to do in Europe, Kelly suggested we visit Sylvie and Thiery, whom we met in Bogota while we were all adopting our eldest sons. They live at the edge of Switzerland and we figured we could take the TGV train to see them while staying in Paris. Zane said yes, we should do this. So we found their address - thankfully they hadn't moved in 12 years - and wrote to them. We have very little French and they have very little English, just like in Bogota, but we planned a rendezvous.
Of course when we got here we realized how expensive it would be to ride the TGV so we rented a car (much travail involved) and left Paris late Friday night to drive to Dijon to sleep for a few hours before heading to Senarclens, Switzerland. They met us at the le Gare (train station) in Morgas. They look exactly the same, jumped out of the car and did the kiss on each cheek thing. Thiery told me we needed to do it trois times (3), not two. Their sons Clement, who is two months younger than Zane, and Justine, who is seven, kissed me also. Then we followed them to their home for an afternoon visit.
They live in this idyllic little village with a view of Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva out the front window and an open porch, swimming pool, and cherry trees viewing the hay fields in the back. The boys had no language in common but a soccer ball and their iPods, yet that was plenty. They swam, played football, and discussed Angry Birds and Minecraft together for hours.
I have a French/English translation program on my iPad (thank you, Apple) so we worked our way through conversation pretty well. We talked about the boys, their second visit to Bogota for Justine, how everyone is doing. They asked where Theo came from and I said, "Surprise!" and their response was joyous. We shared our memories of Bogota, like when we thought we had all been exposed to meningitis, and Thiery was so calm, and when Thiery was held up at gunpoint, and Sylvie was not calm.
After awhile Thiery's father came and we sat under the cherry trees drinking sparkling water on the perfect day while Zane, the boys, and some neighbor kids played football in the hayfield and the rest of us looked through photos and a map of the whole world sharing where we had been.
We left around dinner time, but not before lots of photos, kisses, and looking each other up on facebook. On the drive back to Dijon Zane asked lots of questions about our time in Bogota.
We were exhausted but what a wonderful, delightful afternoon we had. It is amazing how a connection can happen when you don't share language, but we did share an extremely important experience and memories. The connection is more of heart than words and that is enough. Perhaps how adoption is a connection of heart instead of body, and that is enough.

Who Won 'America's Got Talent'?

We will find out the answer to that question after an hour and fifty-five minutes of (presumably) crap. Crap that I will watch for you, so that you can fast-forward or tune in at 9:55/8:55c to find out who wins. Results shows, what are you going to do.
Click here to find out how you can win tickets to the America's Got Talent Live Tour
After the standard review of what happened last night, the four final acts are trotted out on stage for our review. BUT THEN,
Prince Poppycock performed a medley with Donna Summer
and it was epic insanity.
I like to pretend that someone was just flipping through the channels and found this with no prior knowledge. They would either find it incredibly strange, or the best thing they'd ever seen (although if they were watching TV in Europe it would be just any other program. European TV is nuts).
But it wouldn't be a results show with the painful "What's Poppin'" lounge segment. I shed a tear, for it was the last one of the season! But then the cast of "Love" by Cirque du Soleil performed and I recovered very quickly. It was fun to watch, even though I was never quite sure what was happening or why. But such is Cirque du Soleil.
Next up is a
duet between Michael Grimm and "his hero" Jewel
. Just between you and me, I don't think he picked Jewel, I think it just happened.
They sounded good, but as far as confusing match-ups go,
is two for two tonight. I'm interested to see who Jackie Evancho performs with (Sting would be awesome, but it will probably be Justin Bieber or something equally disappointing). And what is Fighting Gravity going to do?
Fighting Gravity is performing with Lionel Richie.
What? I don't think anyone involved knew why.
The first lyric of Richie's "Dancing on the Ceiling" is "what is happening here?" and I couldn't agree more. Still, the performance was worthy of Universal Studios Orlando. And was that a pre-recorded video of FIghting Gravity behind Lionel Richie? Booooo. Lionel Richie became "an honorary member of Fighting Gravity" when the frat guys did as frat guys do and gave out a t-shirt.
Then a Nick Cannon montage happened. The introductions were passed off as candid banter and it was uncomfortable. But then Sponjetta came back! I can die happy. I don't care what happens, Sponjetta wins the night. She should (obviously) team up with
One Young Beast Society. But instead (and this really happened)
Sponjetta teamed up with T-Pain
She clearly had no idea it was happening, either, which made it possibly the best moment of the season.
Next, a montage of the best worst auditions. As though we needed a reminder what we struggled through so many months ago. Then the All-Stars (of Fail) performed "I Gotta Feeling" because we all wanted to see them again (no).
We went from an all-time high to an all new low.
Jackie Evancho performs with her actual hero, Sarah Brightman
. This obviously wins best duo.
Also, the opera people will have to sound off here, but one of the ones I know likes Sarah Brightman. She is a nutball, though. Oddly, Sarah Brightman encouraged Jackie Evancho to "save and preserve" her voice. Hmmmm.
Judge montage, followed by a joke involving the presence of Future Funk. Feh.
David Copperfield is still performing (at least on this show). Maybe he'll make David Blaine disappear? A girl can dream. He appeared inside a box on a motorcycle ("those are still cool, right?"), confused our bodies, then trimmed his down to about a foot. It was cool! Cooler than Goo Goo Dolls, who opened with "Slide" to remind us who they are.
We got to see a week in the lives of the Final Four, which was actually pretty cool. I liked seeing the acts react to each others' performances backstage, and everyone having trouble waking up early except Jackie Evancho. But it's time for the first result (wake up!).
Prince Poppycock is in fourth place.
This is a letdown but, after last night's performance, not a total shock. He made it further than most of us thought he would.
The act in third place is Fighting Gravity
. I'm a little surprised, I thought it would come down to Fighting Gravity and Jackie Evancho, despite the fact that they peaked a few weeks back. So it's down to Michael Grimm and Jackie Evancho! I'll be happy for whoever wins.
Usher was great, as usual. Did you see his performance on the VMAs? It was so cool. I bet he didn't like Nick Cannon calling him "URSHER" repeatedly though.
So who will win the million dollars and a headlining spot on the tour? If Michael Grimm wins, he'll probably use the money for something totally noble and awesome. If Jackie Evancho wins, she will probably donate to a charity or an animal shelter, then buy a pony because WHY NOT. We know Michael Grimm a little better, having seen him from the early audition rounds, but Jackie Evancho has had America's vote since YouTube week when she surprised everyone. I think Jackie will win, but I will happily purchase Michael Grimm's latest album on iTunes.
With a record-breaking number of votes ...
The winner is Michael Grimm!
I literally gasped and went "WHAAAT?" He looked as surprised as the rest of us. He had a "David After Dentist" moment, asking "is this real?" So Jackie Evancho is the next Susan Boyle, a fan favorite who ended up in second place. This was actually pretty exciting.
What do you think of the results?
I was so sure Jackie Evancho was going to win but I'm so happy for Michael Grimm. Grimmlins rejoice! Don't be mad, you guys, it's just a TV show.
What did you think of this season?
Also, I have an opportunity to ask the winner a question or two tomorrow morning for a conference call,
what question(s) should I ask Michael Grimm?

Oh my GOD! You have to see this!
I don't know if you have all seen this, but I just found it because I am doing a report about OHV's versus land conservationalists.
You have to see this. Its a video, takes a bit to download, but is worth it. This is the type of shit that makes me want to run over hippies with my truck. URL: http://www.sierraclubslo.org/archive/feb_01/6.html GRRRR! I hate the sierra club! ------------------ |

You already said it Lance. sierra club!!!!
We need people very familiar with the Oceano/Napomo Dunes area to watch this video. I noticed that everytime they talked about a bird or plant, they said Nopomo Dunes, and everytime they discussed a vehicle, they said OceanoDunes. I was under the impression (prior to this video) that theses two dunes were adjacent to each other, but Napomo was off limits to vehicles...Is this true? If so this is just another sierra club attempt to mislead the public to meet their selfish goals. So I'm calling out everyone that has any substantial knowledge of the Dunes to set this straight (and correct me if I'm wrong). We need to stop this blind misleading of the general public!!! and one more thing - sierra club ------------------ "Its a Wheelbase Thing, Your Jeep Wouldn't Understand" Peter S.

Pasta with Spring Vegetables, Bathed in Cream
Serves 2 to 3, and can easily be doubled
- 1/2 pound pasta -- I like reginetti, orecchiette, or something that will aptly hold on to peas and cream
- 1/2 pound frozen or fresh peas (I bet you could also use slices of asparagus, if you really wanted to)
- 3 to 4 scallions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon good butter (preferably salted)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 to 3/4 cups grated Parmesan
- Lots of freshly cracked black pepper
- Salt, to taste
- 10 to 12 big mint leaves, or a small handful, kept whole until the last minute
- Snips of chives or tarragon, optional
- Cook your pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water -- make sure it is salty like the sea! In the last minute of cooking, add your peas and scallions. I like to thaw my frozen peas at least partially, so the water comes back to a boil as quickly as possible. Reserve some pasta cooking water (about 1/2 cup), then drain the pasta, peas, and scallions into a colander with small holes (you don't want to lose all your scallion friends!).
- Return your empty pot to the stove. Warm the butter and cream over medium-low heat, until the cream starts to bubble and the butter is totally melted. Add the drained pasta, peas, and scallions, plus the grated Parmesan (be generous; be daring) and lots of black pepper. (Really. Lots!)
- Stir everything together, and add a bit of pasta water to thin out the sauce. Start with 1/4 cup, then add as you see fit. Taste for salt, and add a bit more -- flaky preferred -- if you deem it necessary.
- Divide your creamy pasta goodness into bowls, then bunch up your mint and snip it into thin ribbons with clean kitchen scissors, scattering it as a garnish. I cut it at the last minute to keep it from turning brown; you can also just use a knife if you like. You can also add chives, or tarragon, or any combination of the three -- they all play well with peas and cream.
- This recipe is a Community Pick!

Intel best selling chipsets are G31 / P31
43.4 percent planned in Q1
Intel expects that its best selling chipsets in Q1 2009 will be G31 and P31 based. These two will sell so well, that nothing else will come even close. If Intel's plan works well, by the end of this quarter its sales machine should sell 43.4 percent of this chipset. We can see that many OEMs would want such a chipset as it will enable many affordable machines.
The second best selling chipset is Intel's business is the Q45/Q43, and it is expected to take some 28 percent of sales, while the third place goes to G45, G43, P45 and P43 based chipsets with less than 11 percent of projected sales.
These three groups add up to a 82.4 percent share of total Intel's chipset sales, while the rest of the chipsets will account for the remaining 17.6 percent of total shipments.

* by barely, i mean depending on how mucbh u wear. GIT or cool water leaves behind an overly sweet scent on ur clothes over night. try 5 sprayso fo cool water on ur Tee waer it, sleep in it and wake up still smelling the sillage residue of sweetness. no kidding. GIT is not as sweet tho.
just to name a few. above are the ones im using, only 2-3 are sample decants. I could list a whole lot more that im using that can mambo with Le male. I love le male, and its great it last and drys down to a good sillage for ya.
ps. the longer they last the better for us.
ps.2. silverbuillet has a point, do make use of the active threads coz it'll benefit you even more than isolated answers from myself (imma nosey parker)

Prada Amber lasts 24 hours on me, I bet it would last longer if I didn't shower.

Silverbullet is right tho, coz essentially our body temp and naural skin moisture is what evokes the notes. environmentally, my 125 ml LDIsseys finish withihn 4 mths. weather, esp hot and critically humid ones like mine messes up the scent altogether. you'll be surprise that diff ppl have diff experiences with sillage over th same scent,
I dount he meant anythig offensive. really. run a search, u probn get more than a handful of gurus when it comes to sillage.
Also Silverbullet hiimself has great suggestions on power sillage from more complicated scents. yeah?
wait till u see his collection
now dont scare ppl away with the Aoud aite ;p
case close,

Le Male, Gucci Pour Homme, and GIT are my votes
Lots of frags hang around for days if you artfully allow it to get on some fabric. Inside of the t-shirt when you spray yr chest is a good one if you want longevity and moderate sillage. So it's not just a question of which frags, but also of where you spray 'em. Happy spraying.
Méchant Loup. It is not a loud scent, sometimes I don't smell it on me, but after some hours, it start again to rise up. Very strange...
Terre d´hermes & Guerlain Vetiver also 12 hours and more.

"Wow, I've never smelled anything like that before."
I'm a colognosaurus. Rawr!
To me it's got to be L'air du desert Morrocain. Its one of the only frags I have ever worn that loses little of initial intensity throughout the day. It is never overpowering, but is constantly wafting a beautiful aura all day long. I still smell it lightly after a shower as well, which is quite impressive because I have very dry skin.
Power Sillage Me? If the sillage isn't equal to the USS Carl Vinson in it's first trial runs, it's too close to the skin for me.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.
I will second Guerlain Vetiver and Terre d'Hermes, and I will add Gendarme.
Edit: I will also add John Varvatos

IMO, intermitent 12 hours sillage = cloying/boring, sometimes nauseating.
Well, I really dislike Le Male, so our tastes don't match. Just forget what I said.
I dont entirely agree with this. Certain frags (i.e. Le Male, Pi) do get cloying and boring. However, this is not the case all the time. For something like Terre de Hermes and LadDM, they give off substantial sillage without ever becoming boring or cloying. It all depends on the frag and the quality of said frag.
Yes, but the original poster said "intermittent sillage", not "substantial sillage".
I see "intermittent" as an ininterrupted blast of one single scent. As I see, only a "monochromatic" scent, with none or little variation from top to base, can give this effect, and Le Male matchs the description (the overpowering vanilla is there since the start).
"Substantial", on the other hand, can give a good sillage, but eventually with some nuance going on. You can smell it 2 hours after applying and 6 hours after, and you will perceive a significant evolution, and the actual sillage may even grow to the end.
So, Terre d'Hermés, to me, is a great one and has substantial sillage, but not what one would call intermittent.
I agree. I'm not familiar with a fragrance's sillage that comes and goes. It's either there or not When I wear a fragrance and no longer smell it myself, it's either my own olfactory fatigue or poor longevity of the scent itself. Others around me can still smell it even though I may not.

Subject | classpath issues: trying to consume Ivy API in an Ant task |
Date | Thu, 22 Jan 2009 05:51:29 GMT |
I have a very, very simple Ant task that consumes the Ivy API. That is, in the Java code for my Ant task, I'm using Ivy classes. One class I had been trying to use was IvyAntSettings. Well, look what happened when I tried to cast a reference I found in the Ant project to an actual IvyAntSettings object. It's the telltale sign of ClassLoader issues: you can't cast a class to itself: BUILD FAILED java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.ivy.ant.IvyAntSettings cannot be cast to org.apache.ivy.ant.IvyAntSettings at org.myorg.ivy.IvyConsumerTask.execute(IvyConsumerTask.java:45) It just so happened I realized I didn't need an IvyAntSettings instance, but when I got rid of the IvyAntSettings cast, that just uncovered another variation on the same ClassLoader problem: BUILD FAILED C:\...\build.xml:23: ivy.instance has been defined in a different classloader. Please use the same loader when defining your task, or redeclare your ivy:settings in this classloader at org.apache.ivy.ant.IvyTask.getIvyInstance(IvyTask.java:82) at org.apache.ivy.ant.IvyTask.prepareTask(IvyTask.java:256) Now, I can tell you what makes this problem go away, although it's a measure I would just as soon NOT resort to. Put ivy.jar and the JAR for my Ant task in one of Ant's primordial classloading directories: - ANT_HOME/lib - USER_HOME/.ant/lib Here's a minimal Ant target where I'm able to reproduce my problem. In this target, the Ivy JAR and my tasks JAR are in the directory templib: <target name="try-this"> <property name="ivy.settings.url" value=" http://localhost/ivy/myorg/ivysettings.xml" /> <property name="ivy.file" location="ivy.xml" /> <path id="temp.myorg.tasks.classpath"> <fileset dir="templib" includes="*.jar" /> </path> <taskdef uri="antlib:org.apache.ivy.ant" resource="org/apache/ivy/ant/antlib.xml" classpathref="temp.myorg.tasks.classpath" /> <ivy:settings id="ivy.instance" url="${ivy.settings.url}" /> <taskdef uri="antlib:org.myorg.tasks" resource="org/myorg/tasks/tasks.properties" classpathref="temp.myorg.tasks.classpath" /> <mynamespace:ivyconsumer conf="default" classpathid="some.classpath" /> </target> I suppose I could define the Ivy settings programmatically within my Ant task, but I shudder at the implications of that. I'm afraid that, suddenly, all use of Ivy has to go indirectly through my own Ant task, or additional tasks. My question is, is there any way, short of the extreme measures I've already described, to get my custom Ant task to use the same classloader as was used by?: <ivy:settings id="ivy.instance" url="${ivy.settings.url}" /> | |

Ladurée Macarons
I had my first taste of macarons at
Royalé Paris in 1995. Ever since then, I've loved these crunchy, melt in your mouth little pillows of heavenly confectionery & rejoiced when macarons finally started making waves in our shores last year (thank you dessert gods). So imagine how I squealed with delight when I discovered a lovely little branch of Ladurée at Harrods during my recent trip to London (read Part
). I can't believe I never knew it was there before but if you're in the neighborhood do look for it at the right-most corner of Harrods on Brompton Road or hey, here are all the addresses of the many
Ladurée branches
around France & the world while I'm at it. These are the pictures of the small box of macarons I carefully hand carried home with me from London. Trust me, I savored every bite of these babies! Hehe.
Psst! Scroll over the pictures for little description.

FYI, I used my Olympus Pen 2 while the hubby had his Olympus XZ1 (both cameras were our hantaran/wedding gifts to each other) & I've edited all the pictures you see in this blog with an Earlybird filter like

London Is Cracking & Bob's Your Uncle! p.1
Hello duckies. If you haven't been following me on
, you might have missed my very sudden announcement of a short trip to London about two weeks ago. Yup, the hubby & I were in London, freezing our tropical tushies off. The decision to go was so sudden (as per usual for us if you haven't already noticed) that I didn't have time to post a little something on the blog to explain my absence, much less time to even buy warm winter clothing & pack! So sorry to have left you folks without a peep… was tempted to write a short "hello from London" post but by the time the hubby & I were done gallivanting around town for the day, all I wanted to do was snuggle under the covers with a hot water bottle & try to regain feeling in my hands & feet. Yeah, I hate the cold.
Despite the initial rush (& cold), the hubby & I had a lovely time in London. As it was the hubby's first time in London, we went to most of the major landmarks including Buckingham Palace, Houses of Parliament & Big Ben, London Eye, St. Paul's Cathedral & notably spent a whole day at the
Tower of London
(which we think is well worth the 23 pounds + 4 pounds for the audio guide per person if you're interested in English history like us). We also got to experience the thrills of
Winter Wonderland at Hyde Park
, shopped a little & ate our way through
Portobello Road
Sunday Up Market
, visited
to soak in the history of England, spent a whole afternoon at the
Churchill War Rooms
& went back to
multiple times (not really to shop but to ogle) amongst many other things.
Between the hubby & I, I think we easily took over a thousand shots but I won't bore you with all of them… just a couple here & a couple more at the next post then probably a little more at the next few other posts if you're not bored to death of them yet. Hehe. Here you go… (Do scroll over the pictures to get a little description & check out Part

Who doesn't love comfort food?
Those homey dishes remind us of being in mom's cozy kitchen.
Better Homes and Gardens has taken all of those recipes and put them together in one volume, "365 Comfort Foods" from the editors of Better Homes and Gardens (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt).
There's one for every day of the year, including plenty of standards like macaroni and cheese, Swiss steak and pot roast, as well as breakfasts and desserts.
Try out this recipe for pan-fried fish, which makes a quick and easy supper.
Pan-Fried Fish
1 pound fresh or frozen fish fillets, 1/2-to 3/4-inch thick
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons water
2/3 cup cornmeal or fine dry bread crumbs
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch ground black pepper
Vegetable oil or shortening for frying
Thaw fish if frozen. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Rinse fish, pat dry with paper towels. If necessary, cut into four serving-size pieces.
Combine egg and water in a shallow dish. In another shallow dish stir together cornmeal, salt and pepper. Dip fish into egg mixture, then cornmeal mixture, turning to coat.
In a large skillet, heat 1/4-inch oil or melted shortening over medium-high heat. Add half of the fish in a single layer; fry on one side for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden. (If fillets have skin, fry skin side last.) Turn carefully. Fry for 3 to 4 minutes more or until second side is golden and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Drain on paper towels. Keep warm in oven while frying the remaining fish.
Makes 4 servings.

Database | SQL | Database training | IT Management |
In this lesson, you'll gain a solid understanding of terms and concepts surrounding a relational database. You'll learn what's involved in the planning of a database and the steps involved in designing a database. Then we'll talk specifically about the Structured Query Language (SQL) and the database tools you'll use throughout the course.
Creating a Database
Today you'll jump right into the course by creating the actual database you'll use in all the lessons that follow. You'll learn about the most common object in Oracle: the table. Then, I'll explain addresses the common datatypes that describe the kind of information a column in a table will store.
Users and Tables
In this lesson, you'll learn about database users and you'll even have an opportunity to create a user of your very own. This lesson will not only provide you with a crash course in SQL*Plus, but it will also help you create all the tables you'll need for your database. We'll also discuss managing tables and how to modify their structure by altering and deleting information.
Today, we'll put together all the pieces of the database puzzle. We'll discuss defining and managing table constraints, then you'll learn about the five integrity constraints that Oracle supports, as well as what their purposes are. I'll show you how to define integrity constraints during table creation with the CREATE TABLE statement and after a table have been created with the ALTER TABLE statement. With this information, you'll create the primary and foreign keys for your database's tables.
Basic SQL Statements
You'll gain considerably more knowledge about the Structured Query Language in this lesson, where you'll be introduced to two new commands—the INSERT and SELECT commands. Then, you'll execute the commands to insert rows of data into the tables and query the data you inserted.
Today you'll gain experience with additional SQL*Plus know-how. You'll learn how to correct errors and manipulate lines in the SQL buffer. Then you'll understand additional syntax of the SELECT statement.
Restricting and Sorting Data
In this lesson, you're going to learn more about the SELECT command, the most commonly used SQL statement. The SELECT command allows you to query the data in a database. You'll find that you need to be familiar with the data in your database, and that queries provide you with means to view what's stored in your tables.
Inserting Records into a Table
Today, you'll go beyond the INSERT command's basics. I'll introduce you to more advanced features of the INSERT command, then you'll learn the different methods of inserting rows of data and apply those skills to load data into your tables. You'll also learn some troubleshooting techniques to perform when Oracle returns an error message during an INSERT command.
Updating Rows in a Table
In today's lesson, you're going to learn how to modify data in the database's tables using the UPDATE command. You'll learn how to manipulate the data in your tables by updating the values in the columns and by deleting rows of data. You'll learn how to make those changes permanent with the COMMIT command, as well as how to undo a change with the ROLLBACK command.
Displaying Data from Multiple Tables
Up to this point in the course, you've been creating queries based on a single table. Today, you're going to learn how to display data from multiple tables. You'll learn how to utilize your working knowledge of the SELECT statement and explore the world of joins.
Creating Other Database Objects
Today, you're going to learn more about common database objects and their uses. At this point, you'll have gained considerable knowledge of the most common database object—the table. In this lesson, you'll learn about other database objects and learn how to put them to use, too. Then you'll make use of the data dictionary and query some useful views.
Creating Reports in SQL*Plus
In our final lesson, you're going to learn how to format query results to generate a finished report. You'll use SQL*Plus to create reports by using SELECT statements. Then you'll modify the display of the query results to create a polished report.

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
Social policy is so relevant to the social and political issues of everyday life. As well as studying theory, it has a real focus on policy solutions and outcomes. Studying this subject at LSE is particularly special due to the high quality lecturers who are experts in their field yet remain approachable and supportive. Students on the course share a passion for the subject and classes are often enlivened by debate and enhanced by the diverse experiences and outlooks of LSE students. LSE offers many opportunities for personal development – in particular I have enjoyed taking part in the Widening Participation scheme and the LSE Groups project. With widening participation I have worked at sessions to encourage disadvantaged pupils to aspire to a university education and I have also mentored pupils on a one to one basis. LSE Groups offered the opportunity to undertake a group research project where the winning papers would be published. This helped develop my research, presentation, communication and teamwork skills in a fun, group environment and was one of my highlights at LSE so far. I chose to study social policy as I feel it opens up a variety of career paths and it is very difficult to know what you want to do so far in advance! During my time at LSE I have developed a particular interest in working to promote educational opportunity – I was inspired by working with Widening Participation and am greatly enjoying studying a course on education policy. I hope to pursue this interest through a career within the education sector.

Gamecocks nip Providence 68-67
The Gamecocks (5-4) held on even though they had a nearly 6-minute stretch without a field goal late in the second half that allowed the Friars to knock a double-digit deficit all the way down to one.
Weyinmi Efejuku was fouled with 0.2 seconds left on a driving layup and the Friars trailing by two. With a chance to send the game into overtime, Efejuku made only one of two free throws and South Carolina finally escaped with the victory.
Geoff McDermott had 16 points and 10 rebounds for Providence (5-3). The Friars used a 10-minute stretch without a turnover late in the second half to get back in the game. It helped that South Carolina, which led 54-42 on a Brandis Raley-Ross 3-pointer, went cold from the floor.
Downey, though, ended the drought with a steal and fastbreak layup for a 65-59 lead.
With time running out, the Friars kept chipping away and Brian McKenzie hit a 3 from the top of the arc that made it 67-64 with 33.6 seconds left.
Dwain Williams missed a driving layup and McDermott was fouled after grabbing the loose ball.
McDermott, whose shot nearly fell through the hoop, sank the first three throw with 6.1 seconds left. South Carolina tried to ice him with a timeout, but he swished the second.
South Carolina's Dominique Archie was fouled and he missed the first free throw. He hit the second to make it 68-66 and give the late-arriving crowd there to see the following Villanova game a reason to pay attention in the final 5.1 seconds.
Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Sheldon Brown, who played at South Carolina and watched from the front row, had to like how the Gamecocks played early.
Raley-Ross and Zam Fredrick hit consecutive 3-pointers midway through the first half to give the Gamecocks a 10-point lead. Downey sank a 3-pointer right before halftime to help South Carolina take a 35-26 lead into the break.

in my culture it's bad luck to let someone wash your dishes... for free. you have to pay them to lift the bad luck :)
i end up helping
i end up helping
Yes! It's common practice amongst our friends/families. It must be done in our home cause it's too small not to and no room to enjoy dessert. We try and make it fun.
i usually just start helping if the hostess starts to clean up. If its really formal or someone i dont know at all I'll offer a few times and then sit my a$$ down if they say no.
It depends on who is hosting the dinner party. I think it's rude to offer if it's a formal dinner party. That would be insulting to the hostess for her guests to clean up the dishes/kitchen. It's okay to offer if it's informal.
If the host or hostess gets up and starts cleaning up, I'll get up and help regardless. That's just good manners.
I always just get up and help if I'm at my parents' house or my inlaws' house, but if I'm at a friend's place, I ask before I jump in because they might have specific places for things or dishes that have to be washed in a special way.
I am usually the host and I have some friends that just push me aside and clean up (i love them, lol)I think it is because I cook so much and have all the parties, my friends are more open and bold about helping as a thank you.When I am at someone else's I certainly offer to help- it is the polite thing to do.

I think it is because I cook so much and have all the parties, my friends are more open and bold about helping as a thank you.
When I am at someone else's I certainly offer to help- it is the polite thing to do.
i always offer, and jump in many times as well.
With my name....why do you think they invite me?
I have such a reputation for washing dishes that I now get yelled at whenever I approach the sink. Really, rather than getting yelled at for helping, I'd rather more people help ME when I have dinner parties. But alas, no one does.
skigurl sometimes I don't want someone to help me though--I don't want the conversation to be interrupted or I have a special way I want to do things or I need to do something in the kitchen--I think offering is right. I take help when I need it but I get annoyed when someone acts like they know best.
I offer about three times and then shut my pie hole. I love to help clean up, though, but I can understand if people don't want others in their kitchen, e.g., putting things away in the wrong place or constantly asking, "where does this go?"
by offering, you're hoping they'll say noi normally just get up and help if the host has already risen
by offering, you're hoping they'll say no
i normally just get up and help if the host has already risen
I'm with KWM, I love sitting at the table after dinner and don't mind leaving the plates there to be cleaned later.
I always offer to assist. when my boyfriend and I cook dinner together, one of us cooks and the other cleans -- that was HIS rule he implemented when we started dating and I'd cook to impress him :)
I agree with the other commenters - it is just common courtesy to offer to help! If it is a good friend, I just jump right in and start helping out.
Yes, I always offer! Sometimes I get turned down.
yes, i'll typically offer assuming that it's someone that i'm friendly with (vs. my husband's friends that i don't like). i think that it's nice to offer even though the host will typically shoo me away.
I always offer and if I see the host/hostess clearing the table I will help out.

Mirage 1/35 T-26 wz 37 Kit First Look
By Ray Mehlberger
Date of Review | March 2008 | Manufacturer | Mirage |
Subject | T-26 wz 37 | Scale | 1/35 |
Kit Number | 35308 | Primary Media | Styrene |
Pros | Neat Soviet WWII tank | Cons | No interior details. No crew |
Skill Level | Basic | MSRP (USD) | $14.98 |
First Look
The T-26 light tank was the Soviet version of the Vickers 6-ton tank. The T-26A (Model 1931) had twin 7.62mm machine gun turrets (late versions had heavier machine guns). While the later model T-26B had a single turret mounting a 37mm high-velocity gun (37L/47). The final model, the T-26S or T-26C Model 1937 had a 45mm gun, heavier armor and a rounded-off welded hull and a revised turret.
The T-26 had many conversions, some of those was the OT-26 flame-thrower variant of the T-26A. Later, the OT-130 was introduced, based on the T-26B, and after that the OT-133 came, which was based on the T-26S. The most extreme variant of the T-26 was a prototype fitted with wings and a tail unit directly on the T-26. Bulky pontoons were designed to provide limited amphibious qualities. First seeing action in the Spanish Civil war, the T-26 then continued in Finland in 1940. Very few survived the German invasion campaigns in Russia in 1941-1942. The Germans captured T-26's were often issued into the infantry, but few were also converted to Panzerjagers, carrying the French 75mm anti-tank gun.
Mirage is a model company based in Warsaw, Poland.
The kit comes in an end opening type box. The boxart shows a T-26 in captured German markings overpainted in whitewash it is crossing a snow covered field in with a knocked out Pz.Kpfw. IV burning in the background.
The back of the box has 2 color side profiles of 2 different paint schemes pictured.
One is of a Soviet tank with the turret number 23 in yellow and with a streaky whitewash pattern over the basic Russian green. Russian front 1942/43.
The second one is of a captured T-26 with German crosses on the sides and rear of the turret. It is still in it's overall Russian green. Russia 1943.
Inside the box is a sealed cello bag that holds 5 chalk white trees of parts and black vinyl rubber-band type tracks. The instructions complete the kits contents.
If there ever was a decal sheet in my kit, it is MISSING now…sigh. No great loss as the markings are very basic and easily replaced with items from my decal spares file.
The instructions consist of a single sheet that is folded in the center to form 4 pages o 7" x 9 ¾" format.
Page one begins with a repeat of the boxart in black and white. This is followed by the history of the T-26 in Polish only.
Pages 2 to 4 give a total of 12 assembly steps, called out in Roman numerals. There are no parts tree illustrations. Three of the trees have alphabet letters molded into them: A, B and D (D is 2 identical trees) One large tree has no alphabet letter. All have parts numbers next to the parts.
Tree letter A holds: the engine deck top, hull top, muffler, rear hull panel, hatches, main gun parts, tools etc. (24 parts)
Tree letter B is co-joined to letter A tree. It holds the turret parts, gun mantle, a horn, a saw, periscopes and turret roof hatch (9 parts)
There is no letter C parts tree.
The first large un-alphabetized tree holds: idler wheels, road wheels, return rollers, fenders, storage boxes and other small fittings (124 parts).
The second large un-alphabetized tree holds: bogies, hull sides, another muffler (which is excess and NOT the one you use), another mantle (also excess), the hull bottom and upper side plates. (17 parts) There is a small square molded into each of the side plates. Instructions have you cut this off and remove it.
There are 2 identical small letter D parts trees. These hold: more road wheels, head lights, a couple spare track links etc. (33 parts per tree)
The black vinyl rubber-band type tracks complete the kit. These are of the non-glueable type. You have to hot rivet them together with a heated screwdriver. The tree has two little strips with 4 holes in them that you thread over gear teeth and then heat weld the tracks into a continuous loop. I think this is going to be one hairy operation and absolutely would not look forward to it. The links have good detail on the face side and gear teeth on the reverse. However, the reverse side does not divide the links. There are no splits molded in to indicate separate links. So, I recommend some from Model Kasten or one of the other aftermarket companies that makes individual links.
There are no crew figures in the kit and no interior parts.
