Elise's apartment is a cosy, quirky, quiet and comfortable place to stay for our busy first visit to New York. Located very conveniently near the Subway, bus route, great supermarket, restaurants cafes and bakeries, and Central Park, it is a great base to explore Manhattan. The apartment is exactly as presented in the photos, with everything you need including a very comfortable bed. We shared the space with Elise who is a great host providing a NY style breakfast, lots of tips and information, maps and bikes for rent and great books on the bookshelf.
Elise is a very welcoming and friendly host, her apartment is small but comfortable. Breakfast bagels and cream cheese were a delight every morning and her useful tips about NYC were definitely very helpful during our stay.
Her apartment is in a very good location with only just a short walk to the subway and then you're in the city before you know it.
Would definitely reccomend Elise to anyone and especially people that have never been to NYC before.
Very nice clean flat close to transport links, restaurants, Central Park and Columbia University. Within walking distance of the museum of natural history.
It was perfect to stay with Elise in NY!
Great neighborhood, cosy apartment and comfortable bed.
Elise is a great houst who will help you out with whatever you need.
Everything from how to get there from the airport and back, to recommending places to se och restaurants. She is very easy going and nice to talk to.
And you must let her rent out her bikes to you!
Even if you are sceptic about biking in the city, just do it.
It was wonderful, especially when Elise laid out the route for us.
We very much fell in love with New York, much thanks to Elise.
Gustav & Astrid
We really enjoyed our stay in Elise's cozy hut. Even though she wasn't there in person she provided a lot of helpful recomendations. We really, really felt welcomed in her home and got to see a lot of the real New York. Her apartment was clean and homey. Sadly we stayed just 3 days but we'll deffenitly come back to the cozy hut!
Danke und alles Liebe, Barbara & Anna
Elise is very friendly, helpful and a good host. It was our first time with Windu but we had a great time. The appartment was cozy and the bed was good. The neighbourhood is save with a lot of restaurants and the metro round the corner. Thank you for having a great time Elise.
We have had a wonderful time at Elize's place! She is a very nice friendly and helpfull person! If you want to, you can get any information about nice places. The room is clean and we liked the Bagels very much! We went around with her bikes, wich was very much fun to do! And we felt in love with Harlem! A very beautiful place to stay, friendly people, relaxing place to stay! I would really recommanded this cozy hut from Elise! She is a super host and we would come back next time!
Elise is super friendly, helpful and careful. We felt immediately like home, she gave us a lot of suggestions. We specially enjoyed the bike tour!
She is a very interesting person and can make your stay in nyc really great!
The apartment is very cozy and clean (the bed is unforgettably good!!!). Room is silent and the neighborhood has lots of shops and restaurants, Convenient to subway station and a few minutes away from Central Park.
We already miss her, even after spending a wonderful afternoon out with her!!
Elise was a awesome host. Very friendly and helpful. The apartment was in great Harlem. I feel save everytime there. We had a lot of interesting conversations and it was very funny with her.
It was great to stay in Elise apartment and maybe once a time I will come back again.
What an amazing experience to see NYC for a first time. Elise's appartement is a wonderful and original tiny oasis in the south of Harlem. Subway station is really near and yor reach central park after a few minutes by feed.
Elise was down on the street in front of the building the moment we arrived. She was very helpful and gave us a lot of interesting and useful information, a cool drink and a refreshing shower after a long trip. Thank you Elise for everything, enjoy the swiss chocolat and we'll be back.

In order to thoroughly understand what makes Linux tick and why it works so well on a wide variety of systems, you need to delve deep into the heart of the kernel. The kernel handles all interactions between the CPU and the external world, and determines which programs will share processor time, in what order. It manages limited memory so well that hundreds of processes can share the system efficiently, and expertly organizes data transfers so that the CPU isn't kept waiting any longer than necessary for the relatively slow disks.
The third edition of Understanding the Linux Kernel takes you on a guided tour of the most significant data structures, algorithms, and programming tricks used in the kernel. Probing beyond superficial features, the authors offer valuable insights to people who want to know how things really work inside their machine. Important Intel-specific features are discussed. Relevant segments of code are dissected line by line. But the book covers more than just the functioning of the code; it explains the theoretical underpinnings of why Linux does things the way it does.
This edition of the book covers Version 2.6, which has seen significant changes to nearly every kernel subsystem, particularly in the areas of memory management and block devices. The book focuses on the following topics:
Understanding the Linux Kernel will acquaint you with all the inner workings of Linux, but it's more than just an academic exercise. You'll learn what conditions bring out Linux's best performance, and you'll see how it meets the challenge of providing good system response during process scheduling, file access, and memory management in a wide variety of environments. This book will help you make the most of your Linux system.
Daniel P. Bovet got a Ph.D. in computer science at UCLA in 1968 and is now full Professor at the University of Rome, "Tor Vergata," Italy. He had to wait over 25 years before being able to teach an operating system course in a proper manner because of the lack of source code for modern, well-designed systems. Now, thanks to cheap PCs and to Linux, Marco and Dan are able to cover all the facets of an operating system from booting to tuning and are able to hand out tough, satisfying homework to their students. (These young guys working at home on their PCs are really spoiled; they never had to fight with punched cards.) In fact, Dan was so fascinated by the accomplishments of Linus Torvalds and his followers that he spent the last few years trying to unravel some of Linux's mysteries. It seemed natural, after all that work, to write a book about what he found.

Comments about oreilly Understanding the Linux Kernel, 3rd Edition:
It's a very good book, with explanation, code and images to undestand difficult concepts.I'm reading this book during my spare time and it's very interesting.One of the best characteristic is that it's very complete with a lot or references to linux's sourcecode.The only problem is that it's quite old. I think that the authors should update this book to Linux 4.Also, It can be a very good idea to include some chapters realted to Android's Linux kernel implementation.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Linux Kernel

About Me Educator, Sys Admin
The book went into detail about the Linux Kernel. It is a good book for the novice user to understand what and how the kernel works. I do wish it went more into how to write code to produce your own Linux kernel.

Which kernel are they commenting on?
By marty
from Undisclosed
Its a clear and well written book -- but I'm not sure what they're commenting on!!It supposed to cover 2.6.10 -- but the code snippets don't match.Often they rewrite the code (I don't know why -- my requests for explanation went unanswered).This also happened in the 2nd edition.Most of the time the actual kernel code is clearer than the refactored algorithms they present (which are presented as code snippets, not algorithms).

This is a great book
By jdruin
This book does a great job of explaining the data structures and mechanisms Linux uses. It is also written as plainly as possible considering the subject at hand and the editor did a nice job making sure the text is not overly complicated. The book does not include many code examples compared to other books on the subject such as Linux Kernel Internals. The best use is as a reference or as a guide while actually viewing the kernel code. It should be more resistant to kernel changes over time as a result of focusing on the theories and interfaces behind the kernel but will have to be updated if the internal structures are changed.

A good read
By P Wilson
Delving into the Linux code left me with many unanswered questions. This book answered a lot of them and proved very useful. Linux Device Drivers, also by O'Reilly was a good accompaniment. Very recommended.

the road to linux
By Anonymous
to master linux- learn C,logic-mathmatics and pick this book up after you know C with x86 instruction set experience!!!!-----JUMP into this book without prior knowledge to subjects i suggest learning, will be very difficult. Word of advice start with windowsand learn the subjects first. Read the book its comprehensive you will master linux quickly, 3 years.(GET A Enterprise Distro of linux) Reading man pages and toying with linux will take a lifetime!!!!!!!!!! TRUST ME!!!!!!!!

Interleague Needs A Tweak. Immediately
I may be one of the very few, but I happen to enjoy the designated hitter disparity between the National and American Leagues. It's a functioning fossil of the once great fissure between the two syndicates that had once met just two occasions a season. Two? The World Series and the All Star Game.
One of the central pushes behind Interleague play - I think - has been buried today by technology. When the league crossover began in 1997 the mainstream Internet was in its infancy. Our 'global' digital baseball talk was limited AOL chat rooms.
The only way to connect with the stars of the opposing leagues were during spring training contests, ESPN highlights, or whichever network was running the national schedule, which wasn't a 1/5 of was it is now.
Growing up in Philadelphia I had little chance to ever experience the superstardom of Ken Griffey Jr., Cal Ripken Jr. or sorta-stardom of Travis Fryman or Ruben Sierra. I barely got to see Barry Bonds.
Eighteen year olds today have nearly unlimited access to all of Major League Baseball. What? Dad's too cheap to have the Extra Innings package, or MLB.tv access? I pulled up the Mike Trout page w/highlights in just seconds. The At Bat app is $20 a year and is loaded with everything BUT live, full games.
If this type of pervasive technology was available two decades ago, perhaps one of the (few?) things Bud Selig is praised for, the birth of Interleague play, never comes to exist.
Interleague play two or three times a year was annoying. It felt jumbled, intrusive and even worse, an exhibition-itive nuisance.
As awkward as it is having a team hop leagues - time helped me embrace the Brewers - as the Astros did to create two, uniform fifteen team leagues, I've come the revere the constant Interleague contests. Sure, it's odd when the Phillies open '14 IN Texas, or the Tigers end '13 IN Miami, but because the AL/NL matchups have been ongoing since the beginning of last year, any crossover series no longer feels like the inescapable bad penny.
But again. I like AL having a DH, and the NL having the pitcher bat.
I'll summarize Joe Posnanski's brilliant writing on the DH, what's so illegally abhorrent about the imbalance?!
Is it really much different than speed limits in Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania being different? Because of growing up in Philly, doing 75+ on Michigan roads like 75 and 696 felt like I was doing warp 9 out of the Neutral Zone. When I visit home, doing 65ish has me feeling like snails are passing me on 95.
Sales tax is different everywhere. Some states don't even HAVE state taxes. Vegas and 75% of Nevada has prostitution, nowhere else does.
Why does everything have to be the same.
It's only a matter of time before the designated hitter is fixed in both Leagues. In fact, as much as NL managers may not want to give up the strategic advantages they have in IL games, and the World Series, they may face no choice as long as aging sluggers view the American League as a beckoning homestead to finish their careers. Not to mention, the exorbitant price AL teams will pay to lure those NLers over. See Pujols, Albert and Fielder, Prince. More recently McCann, Brian and Choo, Shin Soo.
I'll try to savor my precious .143 hitting pitcher, and all the glorious double switches while they last.
But a few things happened this weekend during IL play that's given rise to an idea that MLB should consider during the contests.
Forget about the fact that there's an undeniable and voracious injury epidemic in baseball now. *Perhaps MLB should re-evaluate the list of what's prohibited by the Joint Drug Agreement. I'm serious. A post for another time.*
My be-liked Rays have been besieged by pitching injuries. Jeremy Hellickson hasn't pitched yet, Matt Moore is likely headed for elbow surgery and just Saturday, Alex Cobb went down with a 4-6 week oblique injury.
Need I recite the Tigers pains?
Cobb was apparently experiencing tightness after his first pitch of the game against the Reds. I'm sure two subsequent at bats - granted, seeing only four pitches - did nothing but aggravate the impending strain.
#Rays Archer suggested interleague play (hitting, running) led to Cobb's injury, said it was "saddening"
— Marc Topkin (@TBTimes_Rays) April 13, 2014
See where I'm going with this?
I realize Justin Verlander got an oh-fer-seven years off his back with TWO hits in San Diego on Saturday night, but the second one almost came with a steep cost.
First, we have to go back to June 17, 2008. Chien Ming Wang had won 38 games the prior two season and was off to an 8-2 start with the Yankees. Then running the bases against the Nationals in an Interleague game, Wang tore tendons in his foot. Since then, Wang, constantly fighting injuries, has won 8 Major League games and currently resides in Louisville playing for the Bats. I get it. These guys are professional athletes and doing things like running and swinging, as foreign to their bodies as it may be, shouldn't wreck careers. But they can. It's impractical to think Wang's foot injury didn't derail his career.
Now you might see it.
Verlander almost got thrown out from right field on his second hit. He had to unexpectedly scurry to first.
Doing something he doesn't normally do eas-i-ly could've resulted in a misstep on the bag, and there goes Verlander's ankle, similar to Wang.
I wish each league would remain autonomous with its view on the designated hitter FOREVER, but until then or until it's uniform, especially in light of baseball's present black injury plague, MLB I beseech you to apply the DH rules to ALL Interleague contests.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by det2atl, Jun 19, 2010.
Summers just doesnt explode to the rim, he's been blocked a few times from what I can tell.
Daye is looking really good I think. Playing him at SG allows him to become an extra defensive rebounder so to speak. And he is getting most of them so far. He is showing good handles and a quick first step, even against guys who are smaller than him. Pistons have had a lot of open looks but just can't knock them down. Jerebko still showing confidence. Not a lot from Summers. Monroe has shown a variety of different moves so far but only knocked down 1 fadeaway plus one gimme dunk. Had a nice backdoor pass already.
Daye's fadeaways have looked sick. He's actually starting to look like someone who can iso.
He is pretty much unguardable against these guys. Showing he is a willing passer too.
Nothing but sweet string music from Austin Daye. Wow, he can shoot it!
Can we bomb that building right now?
WTF? They interupted the game for this?
This is unbelievable! Last night seems modest.
Oh great - keys to the city for the three whores. Edit: I've decided I'm not bitter. That's not. Not bitter.
just what i want to spend my fri doing watch them give keys to everything.... what do they get if they actually win a game, let alone a playoff game. just makes me sad to be an nba fan right now as for the game, i hate the camera angles like others have mentioned but daye looks good but don't think the team as a whole has much energy, but alot of that might be the practices... winning these games isn't the most important thing out there this week.
And the Heat find some way to rain on our opening Summer League game. Utterly amazing. Anyone still watching the game?
Austin Daye is the MLE Kevin Durant. This team has some young pieces. I'm actually pretty excited to watch the building process. I really enjoyed the struggle of the Pistons from 2002-2004. This should be a good time. We still need a thug in the middle. Make those superstar fools earn it...
A thug in the middle? Will 6 Mile Darrell do?
Anybody watching the game? How's White looking?
Mike Abdenour has been ejected from the game.
Wow, Mike Abdenour (sp) just got tossed with 2 techs! Epic!
It's fun watching Jerebko dominate.
I'm not feeling Monroe......yet
I am gunna be pumped to see Daye, JJ and Monroe on the floor when the games matter. White looks incredibly not special.
These are glorified scrimmages. You're not going to see a guy like him dominate. The stuff to watch is his footwork, his passing, his face up game, his smoothness in the post. I'll admit, he could be stronger and more athletic, but I like what I am seeing so far.
Separate names with a comma.

*I wanted to post it because I haven't seen many painted up FP V.2 ESB armor out there.....and I thought maybe this would help others, since there isn't any Really good reference on ESB.
I did allot of "ad-lib" on some of the finer details ..and used decals instead of hand-painted the logos on like I would normally.

Target and Bruno Mars are teaming up to deliver an exclusive deluxe edition of Mars' sophomore album, Unorthodox Jukebox. Available only at Target and at Target.com starting December 11, the exclusive album will feature five bonus tracks: "Old & Crazy," an original duet with Esperanza Spalding; two demo versions of album tracks "Young Girls" and "Gorilla;" and remixes of the album tracks "Moonshine" (with The Futuristics) and "Locked Out of Heaven" (featuring Major Lazer).Beyoncé is aiming to release new music before her performance at the Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans on February 3, according to her collaborator The-Dream. The producer told Billboard that he's "involved in every part of the process" for Beyonce's upcoming fifth album. When asked whether or not she will unveil any new tracks prior to Super Bowl kickoff, The-Dream said: "Definitely. She's got her stuff going. She took the summer to start recording, and now she's in a place where she's ready to start gearing up to reveal her plan."Jay-Z has released the short documentary Where I'm From, which chronicles the making of his eight shows at Brooklyn's new Barclays Center. The film, posted on YouTube, shows behind-the-scenes footage, rehearsals, the process of building the stage, and footage from a few of the concerts.Drake's record label imprint, October's Very Own, reportedly has inked a deal with Warner Bros. Records, according to Billboard.com. Although Drake is signed as a solo artist to Universal through Young Money/Cash Money, he has long used the October's Very Own blog to premiere new music as well as sell branded clothing, and his OVO Fest, the annual Toronto summer music festival, also takes its name from the label.With Rage Against The Machine releasing the 20th anniversary box set XX, naturally fans are wondering if the band will play any more shows, or possibly crank out a new album. Unfortunately, Tom Morello believes it is unlikely right now. The guitarist told Rolling Stone of his bandmates: "I consider them brothers and brothers-in-arms, and whether or not we ever play music again in any capacity is unknown." He also said that "It was my great hope that we'd celebrate the 20th anniversary with a five-continent world tour. But short of that, this box set that celebrates the 20-year span of Rage Against the Machine is something that will hopefully be very satisfying for longtime Rage Against the Machine fans as well as turn on new fans to what the band is all about." When asked why it's so difficult to stage a Rage tour, Morello explained, "We'd have to agree to go on one. Once a year, the band meets and very seriously discusses and turns down awesome offers to tour the world. That's part of the program."Stone Sour and Papa Roach will head out on a U.S. co-headline tour in January, with Stone Sour closing out every show. Stone Sour is touring in support of its latest effort, House of Gold & Bones Part 1, while Papa Roach recently released The Connection. The trek begins on January 20 in Bethlehem, PA and wraps on February 17 in Denver, CO.With 50 Cent's upcoming Street King Immortal due to drop on February 26, the rapper has revealed some of his guest stars for the album. The hip-hop mogul told Billboard.com that his fifth studio effort will feature Chris Brown, Ne-Yo, Trey Songz and Eminem. Dr. Dre, Hit-Boy and Frank Dukes are among the set's producers.
Jazz legend Dave Brubeck has passed away at the age of 91 of heart failure. Brubeck, best known for his iconic tune "Take Five," would have turned 92 years old tomorrow. The pianist helped grow the popularity and visibility of Jazz in the '50s and '60s, while also pushing the genre's boundaries. In 1959, "Take Five" became the first Jazz single to sell a million copies.Phish's Trey Anastasio will embark on a tour of intimate venues with Trey Anastasio Band, spotlighting material from his new solo album, Traveler. The run will kick off on January 18 in Toronto. Anastasio also has been added as a special guest for Thursday night's Neil Young & Crazy Horse benefit concert at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, NJ. Proceeds from the show, billed as A Special Evening With Neil Young & Crazy Horse, will go to the American Red Cross Hurricane Sandy relief effort. Mexico's Vive Latino festival will boast headliners such as Blur, Morrissey, Underworld and Yeah Yeah Yeahs alongside Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, Japandroids, Silversun Pickups and a slew of local acts. The 2013 festival runs from March 1417 in Mexico City.Organizers of San Francisco's Outside Lands festival announced that the event will return next year from August 9-11 in Golden Gate Park.

Had a close call with a car on my way in today, even though I had all my blinkers flashing. The old geezer barely slowed down before turning left as I came barreling down my street at 30mph, he crossed right in front of me. I was on the brakes hard and managed to sneak behind him, could have smacked his car on the way by, but his wife was already yelling at him, which is way worse than I could have managed. Keep your eyes open out there. Thank god for big disc brakes on the cargo bike.

TFK talks to Victoria Justice about her Halloween movie, the end of Victorious and her music career
Victoria Justice, 19, has been acting on Nickelodeon since she was 13 years old. Now, she's making the leap to the big screen in her feature-film debut, the teen comedy Fun Size (Rated PG-13. Not recommended for kids under 13.). Justice plays Wren, a teenager from Cleveland, Ohio, who gets stuck taking her 8-year-old brother Albert (Jackson Nicoll) trick-or-treating instead of going to a Halloween party—and then accidentally loses him. Recently, TFK spoke to Justice about the movie, Halloween, the final season of her Nickelodeon show Victorious, and her first solo music tour.
You play a teenager named Wren in Fun Size. What is she like?
She's a very relatable, normal teenage girl. She has a crush on the really cool, cute guy at school and doesn't ever expect him to notice her. When she gets invited to his big Halloween party, she obviously wants to go and have a good time and be a normal teenager. She gets frustrated with her home situation and her life with her mom (Chelsea Handler) and her younger brother because her mom is constantly making her babysit her younger brother, and [Wren's] kind of become the parent in the relationship.
What kinds of adventures do the characters have in Fun Size?
This whole movie is one giant adventure. Because it's Halloween—it all takes place in one night—so things get pretty crazy really fast. There are lots of great costumes, which is exciting. There's lots of adventure and action and some really sweet romance and some poignant moments, so it's a nice balance.
You have a little sister. Did you relate to the sibling rivalry in the movie?
I think I did, a little bit, especially when we were younger. My sister has always been a very hyper child, so there have been similar situations where I would have to look after her in public, and I would always be freaked out because I would never know where she was going to run to next and have to constantly keep my eyes on her because I felt like she could get away or escape at any second.
What was your favorite candy to receive trick-or-treating when you were younger?
I was into all the sour stuff, like Warheads and sour gummy worms, and—as far as chocolate—I love Kit Kats and Buncha Crunch and Raisinets.
Are you a fan of Halloween? What was your most memorable Halloween costume?
I'm definitely a Halloween fan. I think Halloween is one of the most fun holidays. You have total freedom to be whatever you want, dress up however you want, express yourself as creatively as you want. My most memorable costume…I was a ketchup bottle one year.
You also star in Nickelodeon's hit TV show Victorious. What can fans expect from the new season?
There's some really great new music coming up, [including] a song that I wrote called "Faster Than Boys," which I've been giving a preview of on my tour. And lots of funny moments coming up.
This will be the show's final season. How are you feeling about moving on, and what's next for you?
I'm feeling good and pretty positive about it. I'm 19 now. I think this is a good age for me to step outside of Nickelodeon and explore other possibilities and opportunities. Of course, I'm extremely grateful. The network has been amazing to me. I've been on Nickelodeon since I was 12 years old, starting off on Zoey 101, and then was given my own show, so it's really been a dream come true for me in a lot of ways. And I think I'll always look back on this time in my life very fondly.
You spent the summer out on your "Make It In America" solo tour. How was the experience?
It's been amazing. I have my own tour bus. We've all become obsessed with Ms. Pac-Man because we brought a portable joystick that you can connect to the TV. So we've been having Ms. Pac-Man competitions, so that's been fun. It's just a crazy schedule. Playing a show in front of 10,000 people, and then getting on a bus and driving for 10 hours, and then doing it all over again. It's pretty nuts, but it's really, really fun.
You also filmed a really creative live lyric Maroon 5 video with your tourmate Max Schneider, all in one shot. How long did that take to come together?
We filmed it all in one day, and it took 11 takes. We used the 11th take. I honestly didn't know if it was going to be possible for us to pull it off, but we ended up doing it, and I'm so happy with the finished product.
Note: Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon Movies Fun Size is Rated PG-13 for crude and suggestive material, partying, and language.

Anyone got one of these?
I have one West beetle trap. I gave it a whirl just for fun. It collected lots of Beetles, but was a huge drag in terms of removing a cleaning it out, putting it back in etc. etc. this seems to potentially solve the problem. My only concern is that I thought the bees basically chased the beetles through the slats, it is a screen between the slats and the bees, will they really be able to chase the beetles through them?
Also does anyone know if anyone's making the West hive beetle trap in an eight frame size? Have had some recent trouble with my shoulder and eight frame mediums are looking more and more attractive everyday.

I lived back in the 1700s and helped write America's Declaration of
You may have heard that I "discovered" electricity by flying a kite during a
rainstorm. Well, that isn't really true...a great deal was already known about
electricity before I came along. But my experiments taught the world some new
things about how electricity works.
It's partly because of me that you have electric lights, TVs, washing machines,
computers and thousands of other things that make your life more comfortable
and interesting. But all those things use energy.
Back when I was living, around 250 years ago, we burned coal, oil and wood for our energy.
Today, you have safer, cleaner and easier energy sources -- but many won't last
The most important thing you can discover about electricity and other kinds of
energy is how to conserve them...to save them.
That's why my friends at the California Energy Commission and I have put together
this special issue of my famous publicationPoor Richard's Almanac - - to let
you know some important facts about energy conservation.
We call it Poor Richard's Energy Almanac.
By the way...if you want to leave my Energy Almanac at any time, simply

I have to show you what we made today for the kids at our BBQ party!
We used two pieces of plastic sheeting sized 9'x12' and duct tape…
I wish I could take credit for this awesome idea and tell you I was that cool to come up with it.
I saw it via Pinterest by the Clumsy Crafter (fabulous blog by the way) and had to try it!! —>The Water Blob Tutorial
The only thing we did differently was use 4MIL weight plastic which was thicker and after filling up the blob we poked holes through the top sheet using toothpicks!
They had so much fun sliding, slipping, and bouncing on the blob for hours!!
We will definitely be doing this at our next summer get together!!
Want other fun ways to keep the kids entertained this summer?! Don't miss this…

I've been asked to do a cutout of an infestation of bees in the exterior wall of an old run down house.
The renter has specifically asked that I work to save the colony.
The funny thing is that some bees keep making it inside the house, and they act insane, and die shortly later. I've seen one of these bees - It was skittering around in circles on the floor. It is what I'd expect from poisoning.
Oddly, the owners swear they haven't used any poisoning - And I believe them.
It doesn't make sense to me that behavior this acute could be attributed to a poisoning that happened in years previous - Otherwise the colony itself would be dead.
Poisoning seems to only happen to bees that make it inside. I've not seen this behavior in the short time I've observed traffic around the external entrance.
My only hypothesis is that they're coming in through the light sockets, and getting a shock on the way through.
Any other ideas?

Anyone else gonna be in Disney World this summer during Star Wars Week? I was just wondering because the people that I am going with just informed me that we were going then.
Ill be there the first weekend and maybe the third.
I'll be there every weekend. :)
U guys are gonna be in costume right.
Every weekend for me too... and in costume.
If you guys do go, and you see the "Disney" Boba & Jango
Could you get a pic of their Jet Packs for me?
I will be there out of costume on a family vacation, I will be there on sunday of the first weekend, plus thursday, I will be wearing either a TDH or 501st shirt with a messanger bag with 501st patches on it, come talk to me I will have my trading card and patches to give out and trade.
I'll be there the first weekend marching all three days in costume.
Shoot. I didn't know that they only permitted cannon costumes. I think that means that I will be just watching. Maybe I'll still wear my suit, just not march. Wat do you think?
Sorry new guy here. I usually pick up very quick but what is "cannon" ??
CANON means it is authentic to a specific source. IE matches perfectly from costumes seen in star wars. So custom mandos would not be accepted because they were not seen on screen.
I'll have some patches and such on me TK-Fett, and we'll probably be going in the park Sunday. You going to be around all weekend?
Nah Ill just be getting there later on saturday, and only spending sunday at MK then going back later that week, im going to try to be as visible as possible and we will most likely be around the bigger attractions, Haunted Mansion etc... If you see me just come up
We had to schedule our trip this year for the 21-2 of May, unfortunatly this year they're starting in july instead of may like years past but for all of you guys who are going to make it have fun I went a few years back and it was a BLAST!

Local doctor pleads guilty
William Kincaid pleaded guilty to receiving misbranded medication.
GREENEVILLE, Tenn. - A well-known Johnson City physician admitted to a federal judge he knowingly received medications at his practice that were not approved by the FDA.
Dr. William Kincaid once practiced at Mcleod Cancer and Blood in Johnson City, but on Tuesday he walked out of the federal court house as a convicted felon.
Dr. Kincaid pleaded guilty to one count receiving an illegal shipment of a cancer medication in 2011 from a non-FDA approved manufacturer in Switzerland; that was an action prosecutors said put the lives of patients at risk. "There is no assurance what patients received, we don't know, the physicians don't know what the patients received," said Neil Smith, Assistant U.S. Attorney.
For sisters Debbie Swift and Deniece Norris, the hearing was sense of closure for their father who was once a patient of the well-known physician. "We needed peace of mind, we needed to know the truth, and we received that now we are where we need to be with this," Debbie Swift said.
This case is part of a much larger investigation into doctors buying medication from sources outside of the United States because it's cheaper. "Basically what a physician is doing by buying drugs from unapproved sources at prices lower-than-average sale prices is to maximize profits," said Smith.
Kincaid offered no explanation for his actions during his guilty plea. He was released from jail on a $20,000 bond while he awaits sentencing.
Outside the courthouse, his attorneys told us there are still more facts about the case that have not yet come to life. "We may file something with the court of record in the next couple of weeks that will add to the facts of the plea agreement," said defense attorney Guy Blackwell.
"[We'll] begin to tell the whole story, learn what the whole story is in this thing," added defense attorney Mark Slagle.
The attorneys said their client will speak publicly at some point.
Dr. Kincaid faces up to three years in federal prison and a fine of up to $250,000. He will be sentenced June 3.
The investigation into misbranded medication at Mcleod Cancer and Blood involved more that one shipment of medication.
Kincaid's guilty plea Tuesday morning to just one count against him was part of a plea agreement worked out with prosecutors.
Mcleod Cancer and Blood has since closed its doors.

Arsène Wenger says he handed Jack Wilshere the No 10 shirt as a show of faith in his leadership potential.
The 20-year-old has taken Robin van Persie's old number after the Dutchman's departure for Manchester United.
Wilshere is set to return from a lengthy spell on the sidelines early this season and Wenger has backed the young midfielder to lead by example.
"We lose great players but I want to show that we have great players at the Club," said the manager. "We have young players, English players like Oxlade-Chamberlain and Wilshere. We have fantastic potential here and when everyone is fit we will see that.
"I feel Jack will be one of the leaders of this club and by giving him the No 10 shirt I want to show I am confident he will be the one who will lead the team one day.
"I believe that he is at the stage where he needs something at the moment. At his age after one year out, that is not easy to take.
"Every day he comes in at eight o'clock in the morning and works out but didn't get anywhere. I want to show him that I believe in him and that he will come back quickly."

"If Sally and Joe Frontporch think they can get up and do that, they've got another thing coming."
Tom: Are you saying, Dick, that their twizzle was not a fizzle?
Dick: There's no shamizzle in that fazizzle.
"It's seems to me that that dress is almost the biggest powder puff I've ever seen in this world."
Dick's comment on the Kerrs being "genetically similar" cracked me up.
"If you're going to sing the national anthem, you better be Whitney Houston and not Roseanne Barr."

The best one so far was "chloroform choreography".
Elena Sokolova:
"Forgive me for saying so but I don't think she's burst onto this ice at all. I think she's out of condition. I think she's been slow, she hasn't been pushing. She gets some good jumps in but it really isn't very much trained for an Olympic kind of competition, I don't feel."
"Gosh, you know I didn't see any redemption being sought even when she was in the warmup or when she was coming out of the rink. I kind of feel that the music is blah, there's no stretch in the arms and the legs, there was no tension in the program. Um, I'm sorry to be so negative but, uh, that's the way I saw it."
Yan Liu:
"One thing I wish she'd do is tie up her shoelaces and not leave them hanging out."
Susanna Poykio:
"Just not a with it performance in any way, shape, or form. That's very sad to see the entire, so to--soufflé unsouffle."
Sarah Meier:
"As the saying goes, there was more choreography in that landing than there was in a lot of the rest of the program."
And a bonus quote from Tom Hammond on Silvia Fontana:
"Scores don't really matter but here they are."

I'm tasked with organizing our clubs monthly topics.
Interest was expressed by the group in having speakers talk about what is happening at that time of year.
Several topics could be included for each meeting.
I'd like to have a speaker give a talk one month ahead of when you would actually be doing something.
Maybe talk about Spring splits/swarm prevention and installing package bees into a hive for March.
Any help is appreciated.

text: You probably figured this was a joke thread, and in some respects it is, but it's not the funny kind. Prior to the Easter weekend a RI school superintendent decided that anything "Easter Bunny" related was to be banned from the school's craft fair. This became a huge controversy as I'm sure you can imagine. It was terribly distorted to the point that my daughter came home being told by school teachers that students were no longer allowed to say "Easter Bunny" on school grounds. For fear that it would offend those who are opposed to the easter bunny. Thankfully senator Rick Singleton came to the defense and is trying to get a bill passed making it illegal to ban "ANY" religious icons from school. The point was made that if this kind of attitude towards people's individual rights to celebrate their holiday the way it was intended, is allowed to progress then some time in the future we would no longer call them Christmas trees, but "Holiday trees", and a Menorah would be called a countdown candelabra. That would kind of suck the cheer out of the holidays.

The only team that they've played with a winning record was Minnesota (4-1) to whom they lost; the rest are not doing so well. Note Minnesota's schedule has not been tough either.
Green Bay (2-3)
Detroit (1-4)
Jets (2-2) likely (2-3) after tonight
Buffalo (2-3)
I think this will be a winnable game. If the D can hold up than we will be able to score. What say you????????

|Strength Of Schedule (SOS)
Export NBA schedules to Excel including rest days to build your own strength of schedule model!
Strength Of Schedule (SOS) represents a team's average schedule difficulty faced by each team in the games that it's played so far or for all season. The schedule difficulty of a given game takes into account the rating of the opponent and the location of the game.
Strength of schedule in the NBA has not been considered nearly as important as in the NFL or as in the NCAA basketball since the NBA teams play each other at least twice. Much of the schedule differences between teams come down to road trips, back-to-backs, afternoon games for example.
Strength of schedule can be calculated in many ways and all methods asssign a greater SOS number to a more difficult schedule.
Methods for Calculating Strength Of Schedule
SOS can be calculated by the help of Relative Percentage Index which incorporates W/L records of opponents and opponents' opponents. This method is being used by ESPN. John Hollinger explains the calculation of SOS.
Simple Rating System (SRS) also incorporates strength of the schedule by employing margin of victory (MOV) and the results can be found at basketball-reference.com
Another way used by Kenneth Massey is explained here.
Jeff Sagarin is also in charge of SOS ratings.

text: Jimmyjane and The Peggy Siegal Company hosted an exclusive premiere of Hysteria last night at New York City's Landmark Sunshine Cinema. Film stars and authors alike joined the event, including star Hugh Dancy, who plays Dr. Mortimer Granville, the inventor of the electric vibrator.The screening and after party at Hotel Chantelle inspired open discussion from attendees, including 86-year-old legend Angela Lansbury, who, like all guests, received a Jimmyjane vibrator in her gift bag. According to the New York Post, Lansbury claims it was her first. As Huffington Post put it, "…guests [were] abuzz with anticipation: What was in those white bags? Celebrants went home with vibrators, which in lieu of Hugh himself, would just have to do." Co-star Maggie Gyllenhaal missed the screening to stay home with her newborn, but sent a message via director Tanya Wexler, which, according to Variety, read – "I hope you enjoy the movie… I have a feeling you may want to come again and again."

Hello! Are there certain areas in California that are more suited for Beekeeping? I'm new to this, but really intrigued. I'm an accountant, but when I retire I'd like to do something productive. From what I can gather, this way of life takes a LOT of time and hard work to make a decent return on investment.
How hard do you all think it'd be to net $50,000 yearly? From what I can understand, this isn't possible until you have about 400 hives. It seems to me that this work is something that you do out of love and interest, not profit. It'd be nice if both were possible. I've grown to respect those who work in agriculture; they truly don't get the wages that they deserve, but yet everyone depends on them. Does anyone see this changing any time soon?

Without Prince, Brewers won't necessarily spend big
Yes, the Milwaukee Brewers plan to meet with the agents for free-agent shortstop Jose Reyes at the winter meetings. No, they will not be a serious bidder for Reyes — at least not in the range of the Marlins' reported six-year, $90 million offer.
The Brewers, like many teams, are wary of allowing media reports to set the markets for free agents. They want to hear firsthand what Reyes and other players want before determining how to proceed.
Shortstop Jimmy Rollins and third baseman Aramis Ramirez are among the other prominent free agents who have received inquiries from the Brewers.
"That's why we're here at the meetings — to meet with people," Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said Sunday. "It doesn't mean we have that (same) level of interest.
"There is a perception that we're going to spend $20 million if we don't get Prince (Fielder). That's not right."
The reason, Melvin said, is that many of the Brewers' remaining players will earn significantly more in 2012 than they did in '11.
Second baseman Rickie Weeks will go from $3.5 million to $10 million, right fielder Corey Hart from $6.5 million to $9 million, left fielder Ryan Braun from $4 million to $6 million, right-hander Yovani Gallardo from $3.25 million to $5.5 million.
In addition, reliever Kameron Loe will enter his second year of salary arbitration, and outfielder Nyjer Morgan and third baseman Casey McGehee are arb-eligible for the first time.

Graduation debt for Class of 2013 more than $35,000
COLUMBIA, Mo. - Starting Friday, 6,000 students plan to walk across the stage at the University of Missouri graduation ceremonies.
As they pick up their diplomas, they also take home an expensive tab.
On Thursday, Fidelity Investments reported the average debt for a 2013 graduate is more than $35,000, while the average debt of an MU graduate is closer to $19,000.
This February, the MU Board of Curators agreed to raise in-state tuition nearly two percent starting this summer.
Increasing tuition rates and fees are making more students turn to loans to help afford a college education.
One student graduating in December will need to pay off more loans than the average Mizzou graduate.
"I know my family has been helping out but it's still pretty concerning for me and I don't really know where I'mgoing to start with that," said Cyrus Miller.
A medical school graduate is in a similar boat.
Matthew Witthaus has enough loans that cost more than some Mid-Missouri homes.
"I have $155,000 loans for med school and that's not including the $15,000 of interest I got over the four years of school," Witthau said. "So that's a lot of money, more than some people will be paying for a house."
Ryan Law, MU financial adviser, says these numbers don't surprise him.
"Tuition has been rising in the US latelyand so students are having to take out more and more debt in order to do that," Law said.
Some recent graduates will be force to choose a new career path because of the accumulated debt.
"The reality of having $20,000 or more in debt, you have to have a job that can repay that. So sometimes it does limit career possibilities for some people and they end up doing something they don't want to do but have to because they have the debt," Law said.
Students and MU officials unanimously agree tuition and textbooks are what students spend the most money on.

Teach-In: Debtor's Assembly
As individuals, families, and communities, most of us are drowning in debt for the basic things we need to live, including housing, education, and health care. Even those of us who do not have personal debt are affected by predatory lending. Our essential public services are cut because our cities and towns are held hostage by the same big banks that have been bailed out by our government. All of us are outraged that big banks don't have to pay their debts, but we do.
Debt keeps us isolated, ashamed, and afraid—of becoming homeless, of going hungry, of being crippled or killed by treatable illness, or of being trapped in poverty-level jobs. Those facing foreclosure, medical debt, student debt, or credit card debt feel alone, hounded by debt collectors, and forced into unrewarding work to keep up with payments.
Strike Debt is building a movement to challenge this system while creating alternatives and supporting each other. At the Debtors' Assembly we will come together as a community and begin to rethink debt, not as an issue of individual shame, but as a political platform for collective resistance and action. Come to the Assembly to learn about tools for escaping the closing walls of debt, to share resources and skills, and to magnify our assembled energy. As we share our experiences we can begin to take back from the financiers what they have taken from us: our freedom and our future.
Debt resistance is just the beginning. Join us as we imagine and create a new world based on the common good, not Wall Street profits.

What does a laying worker look like. Can you pick them out?
What does a laying worker look like. Can you pick them out?
Just like their 50,000 sisters, the only way to know which would be to see them do it.
Mike Forbes
Red Dirt Apiaries
I had a small LW hive to deal with today. Dumped the bees in front of a strong hive. I wanted to see if I could spot a LW either by physical difference or other bees behavior towards them. I was thinking that since their ovaries have developed(one would think) they might show a difference. I watched for a half hour. Acouple of small groups here and there but no phys. diff. They let the other bees in with no trouble I could see. Oh well
Like NS said.
A little more research suggests they aren't bustin loose with eggs. Likely more than a few LW involved. Perhaps when they get to the entrance of the new big hive, they promise to never lay another egg
You will have dozens or hundreds of laying workers in a laying worker hive, it's not as though a single bee becomes a queen replacement. They don't lay very many eggs and don't make enough QMP each to have the bees act like one is a queen, either, but together make the bees think they are queenright.
Shaking them out does nothing but spread them out amongst other hives, where they are either refused entry or have their egg laying and QMP production shut down by open brood pheremone.

text: Tammie Jackson is the mother of a 13 year old girl named Gabrielle. Gabrielle is routinely teased at school because of her large breasts. Being a responsible and worried parent, Tammie called her daughter's school which is in Missouri to complain about the teasing and wanting something done about it. The school said they could transfer Gabrielle but that she would always get teased about her breasts no matter where she went and the best idea was for Tammie to take her daughter in to a doctor for a breast reduction. The mother said instead of stopping the teasing a bullying, they are blaming her daughter for having large breasts.

Carnival bras have gained a reputation among women everywhere, but especially among brides-to-be and full-figured women, because they create such beautiful offerings for both types of shoppers. The classic perception of Carnival bras is a pretty white bra, often with lace detailing and a long line bra that offers slimming solutions in addition to support. Brides love Carnival bras because Carnival makes an entire bridal line that's designed to slim the torso for that special day. The most popular item from the Carnival bras collection at Freshpair is the Carnival Bridal Splendor Low Plunge Longline Bra. This bra features light, molded cups and underwire support, but it's strapless and almost completely backless so when she walks down the aisle, everyone will marvel at how beautiful she looks without any show-through of her bra solution. The lightweight, flexible boning in this Carnival bridal bra lends gentle slimming so a bride can feel her very best for photographs. Carnival Bras produce these three popular collections:
Another popular Carnival bra is the Carnival Full Figure Camisole Longline Bra that naturally enhances and slenderizes with an above-the-navel length for minimal bulk. The Carnival Front Closure Longline Bra gives the same slimming support for brides or for anyone, with the convenience of a front hook-and-eye closure. The sheer, unlined lace soft cups give a natural appearance. Another bridal favorite is the Carnival Bridal Splendor Satin Torsolette Bra, with garters for attaching sexy thigh highs.
Women who need a bra specifically designed for a fuller figure love the Carnival Camisole Shoulder Soft Cup Bra because it has a wonderful softness and a natural Lycra-enhanced stretch to smooth and contour the breasts. This style of Carnival bras is so well engineered, that it feels like it has the same support as an underwire bra, but instead it just has perpendicular bands and framed cups for ultimate comfort and strength.
One of the Carnival bras favorites among standard figure women is the Carnival Invisible 4-Way Convertible Bra. This sultry piece features soft, silky microfiber fabric and sleek seamless cups that look invisible under clothing, plus flexible side boning to keep it in place. This Carnival bra can be worn conventional, cross-back, halter or strapless, making it the ideal piece for women who want options. Full figure women seeking the same kind of support in a strapless bra look to the Carnival Full Figure Strapless Underwire Bra. Another option is the Carnival Full Figure Wide Band Shoulder Strap Soft Cup Bra is a supremely comfortable bra for full-figured women who don't want to wear an underwire and need the extra cushioning of a wide band on their shoulder straps.
Carnival Bras and Panties
Carnival bras are popular among women who like to feel a more natural fabric against their skin because they are sensitive. The Carnival Full Figure Cotton Lined Soft Cup Bra has soft, wire-free molded cups that are lined in 100% natural cotton so they feel gentle against the sensitive skin of the breasts and nipples. Other popular longline bras are the Carnival Invisible Torsolette and the Carnival Bridal Splendor Brasselette The Silhouette Maker II. Though Carnival bras are the focus of most women, we shouldn't forget that both Carnival bras and Carnival panties are very popular. The Carnival Bridal Splendor Satin Thong and the Carnival Bridal Splendor Lace Thong are lovely panty choices to go with the Carnival bras. Shop for Carnival Bras at Freshpair and get free shipping!

I can't imagine that anyone returning from a visit to Tuscany fails to wax rhapsodic about the cuisine, perhaps as soon as the customs inspection. And it's hard to think that the people naming their two restaurants Siena, the town that is the culinary center of the region, would not stand up straighter before doing so, considering the ambition and responsibility.
Chef Anthony Tarro and his co-proprietor and brother Chris are no longer breaking out in beads of sweat; mobs of loyal customers have made their restaurants quite popular. Both have worked for many years in the food industry. Anthony graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design Culinary Arts Program, then Johnson & Wales, rounded off by studying Tuscan cuisine in Bologna.
In 2005 they opened Siena on Federal Hill, undaunted by the competition of countless other Italian restaurants. That must have worked promptly, because two years later came the fancier Siena, which subheads itself a " Cucina-Enoteca," in East Greenwich.
We revisited the latter recently, and the déjà vu was gratifying. There are warm woods, dark orange and other earth colors, including raw sienna and burnt sienna, a visual play on words. The attractive bar area was noisy but inviting, with its fascinating chandelier of suspended glass balls. We were ushered into a quieter room, with acoustic ceiling tiles, that was even more beautifully decorated. We sat with a row of regal decorative plates behind us, each bearing a large crest.
The menu is as attractive and varied. On a prior visit we had started with and much enjoyed their self-selected mix-and-match combinations: salumeria ($5-$6), from flavorful prosciutto to spicy salsiccia secca piccante; cheeses ($5-$8), from Gorgonzola to truffled cacciotta al tartufo; and olives ($3), from mild, black Gaeta to meaty, green Cerignola.
It's hard to pick starters here. Even the beet salad, a common offering everywhere, is inventively tossed with dried apricots and goat cheese, perked up with lemon juice. There is always pizza al ferri ($12-$14), wood-grilled to a turn. The Arezzo pizza, named for a city south of Florence, has roasted dates and fig purée as well as prosciutto, caramelized onions, and cheeses. Next time. We settled on the calamari all'aceto balsamico ($10) for its variation on the Rhode Island State Appetizer. Drizzled with a good quality balsamic vinegar, there were diced tomatoes and fresh basil as well as hot cherry pepper rings for a tangy beginning.
We next had a Caesar salad ($7) because it promised to contain several anchovies, the only legitimate way to salt that salad as far as we're concerned. Continuing in traditional fashion, we decided to share a pasta dish before our separate entrées. There are several possibilities, all of them tantalizing, from jumbo tortellini filled with butternut squash and amaretto-flavored crumbs, to baked ricotta and potato gnocchi ($17), which we had much enjoyed here before.
But plain and simple won out. What can they do with the omnipresent penne alla vodka ($15) that would earn our appreciation? Besides let us add chicken ($2) or shrimp ($4), that is. Prepare it precisely and correctly was the answer. The spicy hotness was enough to satisfy my tweaked-up taste buds and still be OK with Johnnie, who doesn't like things too spicy. Besides being flavorfully sauced, the pasta was definitively al dente, with just the right bite.

I had been making an event system, things are fine, my code work fine, but now i stuck on a conceptual idea
how would i implement the conditional branch dynamically?
I cant seem to find a good way to code it that make use efficiently of space, and having multiple if at once
So far, the best thing that i could come up with was to have an int* ConditionBranch[somenumber] , which when checked, if it return a value that isnt zero, it will point to a Condition (assuming a class Condition that was declared as Condition myCondition[somenumber]). But, if i do it like that, then there would only be 1 if, (because it only check for 1 thing at a time).
I cant figure out a way to code it so that it allow an else statement, else if statement
any help would be appreciated.

Scots in ltaly | Artists and Adventurers
- 5 March 2016 — 3 March 2019 *on now
Celebrated as the centre of classical and modern European civilisation, Italy held many attractions for eighteenth-century Scots. Artists and architects came to study its matchless heritage. Wealthy aristocrats refined their minds and manners in a world of glamour and learning. A motley crowd of adventurers and loyalists pinned their hopes on the exiled Stuart court. Dealers and entrepreneurs, meanwhile, exploited a seemingly endless supply of artistic treasures. Featuring stunning artworks from across the National Galleries of Scotland, this exhibition explores the Scottish experience of Italy in the eighteenth-century, the period when fascination with the country reached its height.

The Tweeddales | Power, Politics and Portraits
- 23 April 2016 — 28 May 2017 *on now
Wealthy, influential and politically savvy the Tweeddale family was at the heart of Scottish society in the second half of the seventeenth century. At the head of the family was John Hay (1626 – 1697), 2nd Earl and later 1st Marquess of Tweeddale.
Tweeddale's marriage to Lady Jean Scott (1629-1688), second daughter of the Borders landowner Walter Scott, 1st Earl of Buccleuch, brought him wealth, opportunity, and a large family - the couple had several children. Members of the Tweeddale dynasty married into some of the most noble families in Scotland and England.
The highlight of the exhibition is the fascinating group portrait of the Marquess and his family, attributed to the Flemish artist Sir John Baptiste de Medina, which was painted around 1695.
While several members of the Tweeddale family are acknowledged for their contribution to politics, the military and for their strategic marriage matches, their role as patrons of the arts and architecture is often overlooked. The family were enthusiastic art collectors who commissioned portraits and landscapes by established and little-known artists, particularly those of Dutch, Flemish and German origin including, Sir Anthony van Dyck, Sir Peter Lely, Gerard Soest and Sir John Baptiste de Medina. Paintings by these artists feature in the exhibition.

Evaluating W
It's all very well to express the solutions of problems in terms of
W, but then how do we find the value of the resulting
function? In the case of logarithms and trigonometric functions, the
standard method for many years was to look up the answer in a big
printed table; now we push the appropriate button on a calculator.
For W, however, there are no published tables, and so far
no scientific calculator has a built-in Lambert W key.
Several computer algebra systems know how to evaluate the W
function, but if you don't have access to such software, you're on
your own.
Suppose we already know how to calculate exponentials and
logarithms; can we then solve the equation WeW =
x? As noted above, the forward version is easy: just
evaluate eW and then multiply by W. At
first glance, the inverse function looks like it might be wrestled
to submission by a similar tactic. If we can solve for x by
calculating an exponential and then multiplying, can't we solve for
W by dividing and then taking a logarithm?
Dividing both sides of the equation by W gives
eW = x/W. Then, taking the logarithm of
both sides produces log(eW) = log(x/W).
On the left hand side, the logarithm of eW is
simply W. On the right hand side we can rewrite the
logarithm of a quotient as the difference of two logarithms, and so
we wind up with this equation:
W = log(x) - log(W).
We have succeeded in getting W off by itself on the left
side, but unfortunately there's still a log(W) on the
right. Thus we don't have a closed-form solution, a formula that
would allow us to plug in an x and immediately get back the
corresponding W. This failure is not merely a result of my
ineptitude; no algebraic wizardry will yield a finite closed-form solution.
On the other hand, the equation above is not totally worthless. If
we have a guess about the value of W, then we can plug it
into the right hand side of the equation to get an even better
guess, then repeat the process until we're satisfied with the
accuracy of the approximation. For some values of
x—well away from 0—this simple iterative scheme
converges quickly on the correct result. The algorithms used in
computer-algebra software are more efficient, accurate and robust,
but they still rely on successive approximations.
