DYNASTY Restaurant and Emperor's Court are currently promoting the authentic flavour of Chinese Healthy Soup till March 1.
As traditional Chinese soups are considered gentle health tonic to remedy certain illnesses, the ingredients used for its recipe are carefully picked and infused together for the benefit of the body.
One distinct point about these traditional soups is that oil, cream and butter are never used, and thus, it naturally makes the soup low in fat, calories and sodium.
For the Chinese Healthy Soup promotion, RBC is using Chinese herbs such as Chinese Red Dates, Goji-Berries, Codonopsis Root (Tong Sum), Female Ginseng (Dong Guai) and Scented Solomon's Seal (Yok Chook).
Dynasty Restaurant and Emperor's Court will be serving up to 15 types of Chinese Healthy Soup such as Beetroot Old Chicken Soup to Salmon Fish Soup, Salted Egg Yolk with Kai Choy Soup, Peanut Paste with Seafood Soup and Lotus Root Old Chicken Soup.
All the soups served are Halal.

|Re: Problem compiling mod_jk.so
|Wed, 06 Dec 2000 14:28:15 GMT
This is the response I already posted to a tomcat-user with the same problem...... I thought the problem was only on FreeBsd!! Which is the os you use? --------------------------------------------------- I'm not sure where is the error in the makefile because I'm not a shell expert, but I solve the problem launching by myself apxs. The location of the apxs is (in my configuration) /usr/local/sbin/ instead of ${APACHE_HOME}/bin/ After correcting this I launch the Makefile that compile the mod_jk.so (make all). The script launch : /usr/local/sbin/apxs -c -I/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/include -I/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/include/freebsd -DFREEBSD -I/usr/local/apache/include -I../jk mod_jk.c As you can see it compiles only the mod_jk.c. The command you have to launch is: /usr/local/sbin/apxs -c -I/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/include -I/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/include/freebsd -DFREEBSD -I/usr/local/apache/include -I../jk mod_jk.c ../jk/*.c If you use a different jdk just yank the apxs command and add ../jk/*.c at the end as I did. It works with all the jdk (1.1.8, 1.2 beta native and 1.2 linux) Hope this help andrea -------------------------------- At 08.53 06/12/2000 -0500, you wrote: >Ok, I'll try this again.. > > >Hello all, > >I have a problem someone may be able to help with.

AUD/USD: upward correction
Analysts at FBS point out that the pair AUD/USD hit $0.9065 (76.4% Fibo of the advance from Aug. to Oct.) and is now trying to push above yesterday's highs in the 0.9140 area.
Aussie rose on strong Australia's capital expenditure data (+3.6% vs. expected -1.2%). There's also a divergence on H4 MACD and RSI. According to FBS, in the short-term we expect Aussie to recover at least to $0.9200, but the specialists to sell higher, at $0.9250/80. The target of the H&S pattern lies at $0.9000. Resistance lies at $0.9200, $0.9250, $0.9280 and $0.9300. Support is at $0.9100, $0.9065, $0.9035 and $0.9000.
Credit Agricole gives fundamental reasons to sell AUD/USD on rallies. Firstly, the RBA is unlikely to become less dovish on the back of the most recent data. On the contrary, they will likely continue to keep a cautious stance when it comes to tighter monetary conditions on the back of the still strong currency. Secondly, AUD/USD keeps a reverse correlation to US yields. Credit Agricole thinks that there is room for investors' Fed monetary policy expectations to adjust higher, this would come to the detriment of the AUD. RBS adds that resource investment outlook in Australia has weakened further and growth outlook in China, Australia's main trading partner, is uncertain as the nation tightens monetary conditions.

Dn a relation r is a subset of D1 x D2 x … x Dn Thus, a relation is a set of n-tuples (a1, a2, …, an) where each ai Di • Example: customer_name = {Jones, Smith, Curry, Lindsay} customer_street = {Main, North, Park} customer_city = {Harrison, Rye, Pittsfield} Then r = { (Jones, Main, Harrison), (Smith, North, Rye), (Curry, North, Rye), (Lindsay, Park, Pittsfield) } is a relation over customer_name , customer_street, customer_city Attribute Types • Each attribute of a relation has a name • The set of allowed values for each attribute is called the domain of the attribute • Attribute values are (normally) required to be atomic; that is, indivisible – Note: multivalued attribute values are not atomic ({secretary. clerk}) is example of multivalued attribute position – Note: composite attribute values are not atomic • The special value null is a member of every domain • The null value causes complications in the definition of many operations – We shall ignore the effect of null values in our main presentation and consider their effect later Relation Schema • A1, A2, …, An are attributes • R = (A1, A2, …, An ) is a relation schema Example: Customer_schema = (customer_name, customer_street, customer_city) • r(R) is a relation on the relation schema R Example: customer (Customer_schema) Relation Instance • The current values (relation instance) of a relation are specified by a table • An element t of r is a tuple, represented by a row in a attributes table customer_name customer_street customer_city Jones Smith Curry Lindsay Harrison Rye Rye Pittsfield Main North North Park customer (or columns) tuples (or rows) Database • A database consists of multiple relations • Information about an enterprise is broken up into parts, with each relation storing one part of the information account : stores information about accounts depositor : stores information about which customer owns which account customer : stores information about customers • Storing all information as a single relation such as bank(account_number, balance, customer_name, ..) results in repetition of information (e.g., two customers own an account) and the need for null values (e.g., represent a customer without an account) Query Languages • Language in which user requests information from the database. • Categories of languages – Procedural – Non-procedural, or declarative • "Pure" Procedural languages: – Relational algebra – Tuple relational calculus – Domain relational calculus • Pure languages form underlying basis of query languages that people use. What is "algebra" • Mathematical model consisting of: – Operands --- Variables or values; – Operators --- Symbols denoting procedures that construct new values from a given values • Relational Algebra is algebra whose operands are relations and operators are designed to do the most commons things that we need to do with relations Basic Relational Algebra Operations • • • • • Select Project Union Set Difference (or Substract or minus) Cartesian Product Select Operation • Notation: p(r) • p is called the selection predicate • Defined as: p(r) = {t | t r and p(t)} Where p is a formula in propositional calculus consisting of terms connected by : (and), (or), (not) Each term is one of: <attribute>op <attribute> or <constant> where op is one of: =, , >, . <. • Example of selection: Account(account_number, branch_name,balance) branch-name="Perryridge"(account) Select Operation – Example • Relation r • A=B ^ D > 5 (r) A B C D 1 7 5 7 12 3 23 10 A B C D 1 7 23 10 Project Operation • Notation: A1, A2, …, Ak (r) where A1, A2 are attribute names and r is a relation. • The result is defined as the relation of k columns obtained by erasing the columns that are not listed • Duplicate rows removed from result, since relations are sets • E.g. to eliminate the branch-name attribute of account account-number, balance (account) • If relation Account contains 50 tuples, how many tuples contains account-number, balance (account) ? • If relation Account contains 50 tuples, how many tuples contains , balance (account) ? Project Operation – Example • Relation r: • A,C (r) A A B C 10 1 20 1 30 1 40 2 C 1 1 1 2 A = C 1 1 2 That is, the projection of a relation on a set of attributes is a set of tuples Union Operation • Consider relational schemas: Depositor(customer_name, account_number) Borrower(customer_name, loan_number) • For r s to be valid. 1. r, s must have the same number of attributes 2. The attribute domains must be compatible (e.g., 2nd column of r deals with the same type of values as does the 2nd column of s) Find all customers with either an account or a loan customer-name (depositor) customer-name (borrower) Union Operation • Notation: r s • Defined as: r s = {t | t r or t s} Union Operation – Example • Relations r, s: A B A B 1 2 2 3 1 s r r s: A B 1 2 1 3 Set Difference Operation • Notation r – s • Defined as: r – s = {t | t r and t s} • Set differences must be taken between compatible relations. – r and s must have the same number of attributes – attribute domains of r and s must be compatible Set Difference Operation – Example • Relations r, s: A B A B 1 2 2 3 1 s r r – s: A B 1 1 Cartesian-Product Operation • Notation r x s • Defined as: r x s = {t q | t r and q s} • Assume that attributes of r(R) and s(S) are disjoint. (That is, R S = ). • If attributes of r(R) and s(S) are not disjoint, then renaming must be used. Cartesian-Product Operation-Example Relations r, s: A B C D E 1 2 10 10 20 10 a a b b r s r x s: A B C D E 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 10 10 20 10 10 10 20 10 a a b b a a b b Composition of Operations • Can build expressions using multiple operations • Example: A=C(r s) • rs • A=C(r s) A B C D E 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 10 10 20 10 10 10 20 10 a a b b a a b b A B C D E 1 2 2 10 20 20 a a b Rename Operation • Allows us to name, and therefore to refer to, the results of relational-algebra expressions. • Allows us to refer to a relation by more than one name. Example: X (E) returns the expression E under the name X If a relational-algebra expression E has arity n, then (A1, A2, …, An) (E) xx E under the name X, and with returns the result of expression the attributes renamed to A1, A2, …., An. Banking Example branch (branch-name, branch-city, assets) customer (customer-name, customer-street, customercity) account (account-number, branch-name, balance) loan (loan-number, branch-name, amount) depositor (customer-name, account-number) borrower (customer-name, loan-number) Keys • Let K R • K is a superkey of R if values for K are sufficient to identify a unique tuple of each possible relation r(R) – by "possible r " we mean a relation r that could exist in the enterprise we are modeling. – Example: {customer_name, customer_street} and {customer_name} are both superkeys of Customer, if no two customers can possibly have the same name. • K is a candidate key if K is minimal Example: {customer_name} is a candidate key for. • Primary Key Keys Superkeys Candidate keys K Primary key Example Queries • Find all loans of over $1200 amount > 1200 (loan) • Find the loan number for each loan of an amount greater than $1200 loan-number (amount > 1200 (loan)) Example Queries • Find the names of all customers who have a loan, an account, or both, from the bank customer-name (borrower) customer-name (depositor) • Find the names of all customers who have a loan and an account at bank. customer-name (borrower) customer-name (depositor) Additional Operations We define additional operations that do not add any power to the relational algebra, but that simplify common queries. • Set intersection • Natural join • Division • Assignment Set-Intersection Operation Notation: r s Defined as: r s ={ t | t r and t s } Assume: – r, s have the same arity – attributes of r and s are compatible • Note: r s = r - (r - s) • • • • Set-Intersection Operation - Example • Relation r, s: A B 1 2 1 r • rs A B 2 3 s A B 2 Natural-Join Operation Notation: r s • Let r and s be relations on schemas R and S respectively. Then, r s is a relation on schema R S obtained as follows: – Consider each pair of tuples tr from r and ts from s. – If tr and ts have the same value on each of the attributes in R S, add a tuple t to the result, where • t has the same value as tr on r • t has the same value as ts on s • Example: R = (A, B, C, D) S = (E, B, D) – Result schema = (A, B, C, D, E) – r s is defined as: r.A, r.B, r.C, r.D, s.E (r.B = s.B r.D = s.D (r x s)) Natural Join Operation – Example • Relations r, s: A B C D B D E 1 2 4 1 2 a a b a b 1 3 1 2 3 a a a b b r r s s A B C D E 1 1 1 1 2 a a a a b Natural Join Example sid bid day 22 58 101 103 10/ 1 0/ 9 6 11/ 1 2/ 9 6 sid sn am e rat ing ag e 22 dus tin 7 45.0 31 lub b er 8 55.5 58 rusty 10 35.0 R1 R1 S1 S1 = sid sname rating age bid day 22 58 dustin rusty 7 10 45.0 35.0 101 103 10/10/96 11/12/96 Other Types of Joins • Condition Join (or "theta-join"): R c S c ( R S ) • Result schema same as that of crossproduct. • May have fewer tuples than cross-product. • Equi-Join: Special case: condition c contains only conjunction of equalities.

Assignment Operation • The assignment operation () provides a convenient way to express complex queries. – Write query as a sequential program consisting of • a series of assignments • followed by an expression whose value is displayed as a result of the query. – Assignment must always be made to a temporary relation variable. • Example: Write r s as temp1 R-S (r) temp2 R-S ((temp1 x s) – R-S,S (r)) result = temp1 – temp2 Extended Relational-Algebra-Operations • Generalized Projection • Outer Join • Aggregate Functions Generalized Projection • Extends the projection operation by allowing arithmetic functions to be used in the projection list. F1, F2, …, Fn(E) • E is any relational-algebra expression • Each of F1, F2, …, Fn are are arithmetic expressions involving constants and attributes in the schema of E. • Given relation credit-info(customer-name, limit, creditbalance), find how much more each person can spend: customer-name, limit – credit-balance (credit-info) Aggregate Functions and Operations • Aggregation function takes a collection of values and returns a single value as a result. avg: average value min: minimum value max: maximum value sum: sum of values count: number of values • Aggregate operation in relational algebra G1, G2, …, Gn g F1( A1), F2( A2),…, Fn( An) (E) – E is any relational-algebra expression – G1, G2 …, Gn is a list of attributes on which to group (can be empty) – Each Fi is an aggregate function – Each Ai is an attribute name Aggregate Operation – Example • Relation r: g sum(c) (r) A B C 7 sum-C 27 7 3 10 Aggregate Operation – Example • Relation account grouped by branch-name: branch-name account-number Perryridge Perryridge Brighton Brighton Redwood branch-name g balance A-102 A-201 A-217 A-215 A-222 sum(balance) 400 900 750 750 700 (account) branch-name Perryridge Brighton Redwood balance 1300 1500 700 Aggregate Functions • Result of aggregation does not have a name – Can use rename operation to give it a name – For convenience, we permit renaming as part of aggregate operation branch-name g sum(balance) as sum-balance (account) Outer Join – Example • Relation loan loan-number branch-name L-170 L-230 L-260 Downtown Redwood Perryridge amount 3000 4000 1700 Relation borrower customer-name loan-number Jones Smith Hayes L-170 L-230 L-155 Outer Join • An extension of the join operation that avoids loss of information. • Computes the join and then adds tuples form one relation that does not match tuples in the other relation to the result of the join. • Uses null values: – null signifies that the value is unknown or does not exist – All comparisons involving null are (roughly speaking) false by definition. • We shall study precise meaning of comparisons with nulls later Left Outer Join • Join loan Borrower loan-number L-170 L-230 branch-name Downtown Redwood amount customer-name 3000 4000 Jones Smith amount customer-name Left Outer Join loan Borrower loan-number L-170 L-230 L-260 branch-name Downtown Redwood Perryridge 3000 4000 1700 Jones Smith null Right Outer Join, Full Outer Join • Right Outer Join loan borrower loan-number L-170 L-230 L-155 branch-name Downtown Redwood null amount 3000 4000 null customer-name Jones Smith Hayes Outer Join loan borrower loan-number L-170 L-230 L-260 L-155 branch-name Downtown Redwood Perryridge null amount 3000 4000 1700 null customer-name Jones Smith null Hayes Null Values • It is possible for tuples to have a null value, denoted by null, for some of their attributes • null signifies an unknown value or that a value does not exist. • The result of any arithmetic expression involving null is null. • Aggregate functions simply ignore null values • For duplicate elimination and grouping, null is treated like any other value, and two nulls are assumed to be the same Null Values • Comparisons with null values return the special truth value unknown – If false was used instead of unknown, then not (A < 5) would not be equivalent to A >= 5 • Three-valued logic using the truth value unknown: – OR: (unknown or true) = true, (unknown or false) = unknown (unknown or unknown) = unknown – AND: (true and unknown) = unknown, (false and unknown) = false, (unknown and unknown) = unknown – NOT: (not unknown) = unknown • Result of select predicate is treated as false if it evaluates to unknown Modification of the Database • The content of the database may be modified using the following operations: – Deletion – Insertion – Updating • All these operations are expressed using the assignment operator. Deletion • A delete request is expressed similarly to a query, except instead of displaying tuples to the user, the selected tuples are removed from the database. • Can delete only whole tuples; cannot delete values on only particular attributes • A deletion is expressed in relational algebra by: rr–E where r is a relation and E is a relational algebra query. Deletion Examples • Delete all account records in the Perryridge branch. account account – branch_name = "Perryridge" (account ) • Delete all loan records with amount in the range of 0 to 50 loan loan – amount 0 and amount 50 (loan) Delete all accounts at branches located in Needham. r1 branch_city = "Needham" (account branch ) r2 branch_name, account_number, balance (r1) r3 customer_name, account_number (r2 account account – r2 depositor depositor – r3 depositor) Insertion • To insert data into a relation, we either: – specify a tuple to be inserted – write a query whose result is a set of tuples to be inserted • in relational algebra, an insertion is expressed by: r r E where r is a relation and E is a relational algebra expression. • The insertion of a single tuple is expressed by letting E be a constant relation containing one tuple. Insertion Examples • Insert information in the database specifying that Smith has $1200 in account A-973 at the Perryridge branch. account account {("Perryridge", A-973, 1200)} depositor depositor {("Smith", A-973)} Provide as a gift for all loan customers in the Perryridge branch, a $200 savings account. Let the loan number serve as the account number for the new savings account. r1 (branch_name = "Perryridge" (borrower loan)) account account branch_name, loan_number,200 (r1) depositor depositor customer_name, loan_number (r1) Updating • A mechanism to change a value in a tuple without changing all values in the tuple • Use the generalized projection operator to do this task r F ,F 1 2 , ,F l , (r ) • Each Fi is either – the i th attribute of r, if the ith attribute is not updated, or, – if the attribute is to be updated Fi is an expression, involving only constants and the attributes of r, which gives the new value for the attribute Update Examples • Make interest payments by increasing all balances by 5 percent. account account_number, branch_name, balance * 1.05 (account) Pay all accounts with balances over $10,000 6 percent interest and pay all others 5 percent account account_number, branch_name, balance * 1.06 ( BAL 10000 (account )) account_number, branch_name, balance * 1.05 (BAL 10000 (account)) Example Queries • Find the names of all customers who have a loan at the Perryridge branch. customer-name (branch-name="Perryridge" (borrower.loan-number = loan.loan-number(borrower x loan))) • Find the names of all customers who have a loan at the Perryridge branch but do not have an account at any branch of the bank. customer-name (branch-name = "Perryridge" (borrower.loan-number = loan.loan-number(borrower x loan))) – customer-name(depositor) Example Queries • Find the largest account balance 1. Rename account relation as d 2. The query is: balance(account) - account.balance (account.balance < d.balance (account x d (account))) Example Queries • Find all customers who have an account from the "Downtown" and the Uptown" branches. Query 1 CN(BN="Downtown"(depositor account)) CN(BN="Uptown"(depositor account)) where CN denotes customer-name and BN denotes branch-name. Example Queries • Find all customers who have an account at all branches located in Brooklyn city. customer-name, branch-name (depositor account) branch-name (branch-city = "Brooklyn" (branch)) Exercises • • • • Employee(ename,str,city) Works(ename,cname,sal) Company(cname,city) Manages(ename,mname) Employee Joe Pine Mike Pine Carol Oak Kent Canton Kent Matt Lucy Sean Cleveland Kent Kent Main Pine Pine Manages Joe Lucy Mike Lucy Carol Matt Lucy Matt Sean Lucy Works Joe GE 30K Mike GE 100K Lucy GE 60K Sean GE 40K Carol GE 70K Matt GE 40K Company GE Cleveland IBM NYC Find names of employees that live in the same city and the same street as their managers • Employee (Employee Joe Pine Kent Mike Pine Canton Carol Oak Kent Lucy Pine Kent Sean Pine Kent Manages: Manages) Lucy Lucy Matt Matt Lucy Employee2 Where mname=employee2.ename & street =employee2.street & city=employee2.street Joe Pine Kent Mike Pine Canton Carol Oak Kent Lucy Pine Kent Sean Pine Kent Lucy Lucy Matt Matt Lucy Project on ename: Joe Sean Pine Kent Pine Kent Main Cleveland Main Cleveland Pine Kent Joe Pine Kent Lucy Pine Kent Sean Pine Kent Lucy Pine Kent Find Employees that make more than their managers • Works Manages: (Works Manages) Joe GE Mike GE Carol GE Lucy GE Sean GE 30K 100K 70K 60K 40K Lucy Lucy Matt Matt Lucy Works2 Where mname=works2.ename &salary >works2.salary Joe Mike Carol Lucy Sean GE 30K Lucy GE 60K GE 100K Lucy GE 60K GE 70K Matt GE 40K GE 60K Matt GE 40K GE 40K Lucy GE 60K Project on ename: Mike Carol Lucy Mike GE 100K Lucy GE 60K Carol GE 70K Matt GE 40K Lucy GE 60K Matt GE 40K Find all employees who make more money than any other employee Project Works on ename: Joe Lucy Sean Carol Mike Matt • Works Works2 Where sal<works2.sal Project on ename: Joe Lucy Sean Carol Matt Joe GE Joe GE Joe GE Joe GE Joe GE Lucy GE Lucy GE Sean GE Sean GE Sean GE Carol GE Matt GE Matt GE Matt GE 30K Mike GE 100K 30K Carol GE 70K 30K Lucy GE 60K 30K Sean GE 40K 30K Matt GE 40K 60K Carol GE 70K 60K Mike GE 100K 40K Mike GE 100K 40K Carol GE 70K 40K Lucy GE 60K 70K Mike GE 100K 40K Mike GE 100K 40K Carol GE 70K 40K Lucy GE 60K Substract from first projection the second one: Mike Find all employees that live in the same city as their company Works Company Employee Cname=company.cname & ename=employee.ename & city=works.city Matt GE 40K • Project on ename: Matt Cleveland Main Cleveland Extra Material Expression Trees Leaves are operands --- either variables standing for relations or particular relations Interior nodes are operators applied to their descendents customer-name, branch-name depositor account Relational Algebra on Bags • A bag is like a set but it allows elements to be repeated in a set. • Example: {1, 2, 1, 3, 2, 5, 2} is a bag. • Difference between a bag and a list is that order is not important in a bag. • Example: {1, 2, 1, 3, 2, 5, 2} and {1,1,2,3,2,2,5} is the same bag Need for Bags • SQL allows relations with repeated tuples. Thus SQL is not a relational algebra but rather "bag" algebra • In SQL one need to specifically ask to remove duplicates, otherwise replicated tuples will not be eliminated • Operation projection is more efficient on bags than on sets Operations on Bags • Select applies to each tuple and no duplicates are eliminated • Project also applies to each tuple and duplicates are not eliminated.

kraus blue galaxy rectangular glass vessel sink
What appealed to me about the sink was the beautiful colors the picture shows. The description states there are various shades of blue and they are all different, which is understandable. However, I saw other reviews of the sink telling of the beautiful blues fading into the green toward the drain, so I thought the picture must be somewhat accurate. The first sink was beautiful and shattered in shipping. The second sink was all one color of blue with some specks of black. With many chats online, some with very poor customer service people ( one chat was 45 min. I finally used the telephone and got a very helpful Ruby) I found out all the new sinks were basically one color of blue with specs of black. Through much research contacting the factory myself, in a nutshell, the factory in China 3 or 4 months ago changed how they were making the colors on this sink. I cancelled the order because I was looking for something a bit more bold. My suggestion is to take the photograph off everyone's website and put up a more accurate one.Read More
good wow sink
Just put this in the master bath of a beach house I am redoing. Everything else is super neutral so this gave us the wow factor I was looking for. Everyone has commented how much they like it when the enter. The one thing I would say is to make sure you want this big of a sink. I did because I could not have two in my small bath but it is bigger then most average sinks so in a powder room it might be too big. Oh, and make sure you like the black flakes in the sink. I did and knew they would be there but they are a bit hard to see in the picture.Read More

Looks Great But NEVER Stops DrippingReviewed at http://www.kraususa.com/
I bought this faucet August 2013 because we wanted a contemporary look. It looks good at first, but the dripping has NEVER stopped. Our plumber has tried reseating the cartridge and then we put a new one in to no avail. I'm always wiping it down and now we have hard water stains on the glass vessel as well as the water fall and chrome faucet. It's too bad because it looks great at first.Read More

|Re: intra-word delimiters
|Tue, 16 Aug 2005 02:47:00 GMT
That was the plan, but step (4) really seems problematic. - term expansion this way can lead to a lot of false matches - phrase queries with many bordering words break - settingt term positions such that phrase queries work on all combos of subwords is non-trivial. It seems like a better approach might be a new query type that can handle things like this. As an example, consider a-b-c-d (4 subwords)... one way of indexing the tokens would be: Pos0: a Pos1: b, ab, a Pos2: c, bc, abc, cd Pos3: d, abcd There are only 10 uniqe tokens n(n/2+1/2), but I needed to index 11 in order to satisfy all possible phrase queries of catenated subwords. Notice how many other things will now match though (ac, aab, aababcabcd, etc). In addition, any algorithm I come up with to generate those term position uses even more terms than the hand-generated one above. By using index expansion in this manner, we have lost info about the original ordering. A new type of fuzzy phrase query seems like it might be able to do a better job in many circumstances. -Yonik On 8/15/05, Marvin Humphrey <email@example.com> wrote: > 1) Lowercase. > 2) Convert non-alphanumeric characters to spaces. > 3) Introduce a space at every boundary between a letter and a number. > 4) concatenate all 1, 2, 3 .. n term combinations and index them. > 5) Don't stem. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

Garden Grocer made having extra groceries in our hotel room convenient and affordable. Their fantastic selection provided us with everything we needed!
Customer service was excellent
There are so many aspects to planning a Disney trip when flying in from out of state (and not using a rental car to make side trips) and sometimes the number of details to keep straight can be overwhelming. Having plenty of snacks, drinks and breakfast items in our room each day really helps my entire family. We have used Garden Grocer on our last 2 trips and the service, prices, selections and RELIABILITY are absolutely fabulous. I will forever use them on any upcoming trips. So happy this service is available!!

James Glazebrook's own preview on SMW
Social Media Week is a leading news platform and worldwide conference that curates and shares the best ideas and insights into social media and technology's impact on business, society, and culture.
Wondering what the coolest events to attend during SMW are? Have a look at überlin's schedule for the coming week!
I'm excited about Social Media Week Berlin (24th – 28th September), for three good reasons: 1) social media is both my job and my private life – and the reason I can't always tell the difference between the two; 2) this year's schedule is full of even more awesome than last year's (read my highlights here); 3) oh, and I was part of the Advisory Board responsible for putting it all together (see my biog and moody photo here). Here are my personal picks of what is shaping up to be a very special week here in Berlin. All events are free, and open to the public (although you do need to register), so I'll see you down there!

* Says on track to meet full-year production guidance
* Shares rise as much as 7 pct (Adds CEO comments, analyst average production estimate, updates shares)
By Karen Rebelo
April 24 (Reuters) - African Barrick Gold Plc reported a higher-than-expected 18 percent jump in first-quarter production, improved grades and a sharp cut in costs, pushing up the miner's shares as much as 7 percent on Thursday.
The operational improvements encouraged investors to look beyond the company's 21 percent drop in first-quarter earnings.
African Barrick, which mainly operates in Tanzania, said production rose to 168,375 ounces in the quarter ended March 31, keeping it on track to meet its production target of 650,000-690,000 ounces this year.
"At this stage it looks like we will comfortably be in our top half of that guidance range," Chief Executive Brad Gordon told Reuters.
"We will look at where we finish Q2 and decide whether we need to revise our production forecast upwards." Continued...

Dear Krissy,
This was actually kinda cool and funny. It's so sad though that I absolutely hate the new systems. I grew up on NES and SNES and Playstation 1 so all the stupid buttons and stuff...oh and don't even get me started on the Wii. I love playing Raving Rabbits on the Plastation 2, but can't play it for shit on the Wii. Too much work. Kids nowadays are so much more technoligically advanced then most of us will ever be.
Thanks for the laugh.

Dean would totally be like a giant 5 year old in a video store. I could totally see him rockin' out to Metallica! ;) Maybe EK needs to think about giving the boys some mindless fun, like paintball gunning or video games...something other than booze or screwing to take the edge off of living in the fucked up world they live in...IDK...Just a thought...
Loved it Krissy! I can't wait for you to be done with school so we can read more of your creative genius!

Deborah, Doug... and Daughter too
Deborah swung her legs heavily over the side of the bed. Her husband, Doug, continued to snore loudly beside her.
She sighed deeply; another day.
But this wasn't just another day in Deborah's routine of days that she knew all too well. This day would be far different. Only she didn't know it yet.
To Deborah, it was simply another hellish day that she would have to endure for her husband's sake. She still loved him, she supposed, but certainly not like she used to. She rose from bed, and went about her routine; bathroom for a little freshening up (as if she really cared what stared back at her in the mirror these days), kitchen for breakfast, laundry room for some washing and folding, kitchen again for cleaning and dishes, living room for dusting, and on and on until she swung her legs heavily back into bed that night.
Doug would go to work. When he got home, he would go into the garage, emerging only for supper and bedtime.
This was Deborah's life.
Today, however, amid the washing and folding, the phone rang. Deborah held on to the towel, making her way into the den to answer it.
"Hello?" Her voice was even, dead.
"Hello, I'm looking for Mrs. Deborah Samson."
"Hello Mrs. Samson. This is Constable Reed calling."
The Constable paused, as though unsure of how to continue. He cleared his throat awkwardly. "Yes, I'm calling because we, ahem, have recieved news of your daughter."
The towel in her hands dropped to the floor.
"Mrs. Samson?"
Deborah spoke in a whsiper. "Is this some kind of joke?"
"I assure you, ma'am, this is not a joke. We recieved news of your daughter, Lily, yesterday and we now have her here with us, at the station."
Deborah clutched at her chest as her breathing became quick and laboured. "Lily?" She choked out the name. It had been so long since she'd said the name out loud, although not a day went by that she didn't think of it.
"Yes, Ma'am. I know this is quite a shock to you--"
"What is--How...is, is she alright?" Deborah's eyes began to well; before long the tears were streaming down her cheeks.
The Constable paused for the briefest of moments. "Perhaps you would like us to bring her directly to your home?"
"Yes! Yes, right away please, right away."
She hung up the phone and sat herself down on the chair beside her.
Her daughter. She was still unable to believe that Lily was really alive. It had been eleven years since she'd gone missing. She had only been four years old when she had disappeared from the front lawn one summer afternoon.
Its possibly one of the worst things that can happen to a parent; to have a child go missing. Furthermore, the body had never been found. If it had, at least Deborah could of had some piece of mind, but no. She had continued to hope, as well as blame herself, to the point of near destruction. The searching, alone, in the many months that followed, had been unbearable. Deborah often wondered how she had survived it, any of it.
Now Lily was back.
Deborah called Doug immediately and told him the news. He was in tears before she could even finish the sentence. They knew that Lily being gone had been the ruin of their marriage. Perhaps now they could try to regain some of what they had lost.
Finally, about forty-five minutes later, the doorbell rang. Deborah rushed to the door and threw it open. A uniformed officer stood before her.
"Mrs. Samson?"
"Yes?" She breathed.
"I'm Constable Reed."
"Where is she?"
"She's in the car, ma'am, but--"
Deborah shot past the officer and down the front walk to the police cruiser parked at the sidewalk. Deborah tried to remind herself that Lily would be much different now; she would be fifteen, practically a young woman. Deborah feared to think of how Lily would have been affected by the dreadful things she'd been through in her short life.
She neared the car and grabbed the handle on the back door, wrenching it open.
Inside, sat Lily. She gazed up at her mother with beautiful chocolate brown eyes.
Deborah backed away a step, involuntarily. She was confused.
Inside the car, sat a four year old girl, with bouncy brown curls, just as she had been those eleven years ago.
Deborah covered her mouth for fear of the sounds that might emit from it. It was Lily, all right. There could be no doubt.
"Mama!" Lily raised her arms to her mother and began to cry out for her.
Deborah stood motionless. Her daughter had returned.

LAX Pollution
Photo Credit: Getty Images
LOS ANGELES (CNS) - Levels of hazardous pollutants generated by planes at Los Angeles International Airport are more dangerous than previously believed, spreading pollution over a much wider area than previously believed, according to a USC study released today.
``Our research shows that airport impacts extend more than five times further that previously assumed,'' according to Scott Fruin, lead researcher and assistant professor of preventive medicine at the Keck School of Medicine at USC. ``Effects from planes that are landing appear to play a major role in this large area of impact.''
According to the study, published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology, high concentrations of ultrafine particles extended east more than 10 miles downwind of the airport boundary and across a roughly 20-square- mile area, including Lennox, Westmont, South Los Angeles, Hawthorne and Inglewood. The pollution in some instances -- depending on wind conditions -- also stretched into areas south of the airport.
The findings were contrary to earlier beliefs that air pollution dissipated quickly after airplane takeoffs, with pollutant dissipating rapidly downwind.
Researchers from USC's Keck School of Medicine conducted the analysis over 29 days. They found chemical concentrations to be up to two times higher than background pollution levels within 20 miles of the airport, compared to areas outside that zone. Concentrations four times higher than background levels extended for a distance of six miles.
``Given the existing concern about the possible health effects of urban ultrafine particle levels, living in an area with two to four times the average L.A. levels of ultrafine particles is of high public health concern,'' said Neelakshi Hudda, research associate in preventive medicine at the Keck School.
Officials with Los Angeles World Airports, the city agency that operates LAX, said they have not had a chance to review the study, but said a multi- year study released by the airport in January found that all major pollutants were below national standards, and that air-pollution concentrations showed sharp decreases farther from the airport.
"LAWA cannot directly control aircraft-related emissions,'' according to the agency. ``But, LAWA has taken steps to reduce emissions that are within our responsibility and influence."
LAWA officials noted that all gates at LAX are fitted with electrical connections so planes can shut down their aircraft engines, reducing ground emissions. They also noted that the airport uses electric ground-handling service vehicles for aircraft towing, baggage and other services.

The owner was very helpful and very prompt in her responses, always easy to deal with. The location was amazing, it is very close to all the essentials and monuments, public transport, supermarkets etc...Would recommend for 1-2 people
The location was great - plenty of shops and restaurants in the quarter. If 4 people were sharing they would need to get on well but this typical Parisian studio flat suited us perfectly. Despite being so central it was very quiet.
Very good, clean and nice apartments. Location is excellent, near Notre Dame cathedral and Pompidu center. Near you will find supermarket, restaurants and bars. Good place to stay in Paris.
The entire process was so enjoyable. The owner was very easy to get a hold of. The apartment was in such a great location. I would recommend this loft to others without hesitation.
Fantastic location, sofa bed was ok for a few nights. Great to be able to cook and fantastic shops, cafés, transport, supermarket all in 2 mins walk. All listed equipment was present. Fast wifi. Electrical issues with some items and plugs which need to be checked out. The place is great but basics like very poor towels and basic maintainence let it down a little. Host was pleasant and helpful.

The best Mother's Day cards for your mom
We've rounded up 16 Mother's Day cards that are sweet but not sappy, and sure to make your mama's day
Who loves a small gesture more than mom? Mother's Day cards should be a quick, easy and fun way to say "I love you" (or "thanks for those sweet genes") with the lick of a stamp. But most conventional greeting cards are sappy, tacky and, well, not great Mother's Day gift ideas at all. This year, go with one of these wittily written or beautifully designed options, which, with the right note from you inside, will mean so much more than a splurge-y morning at one of the best brunch spots in NYC in your city or, if you're feeling flush, even a trip to the best spas in NYC (though we're sure mom would be into that, too). Here are the best Mother's Day cards to buy this year, all available to order online.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Hi all,
Did anyone run the Teach First 10k in central London back in September of last year (2012). and if so were you wearing a GPS watch?
Reason I ask is I ran a PB by a significant margin off the back of little training and having worked very hard subsequently have not been able to better it. This leads me to suspect one of two things
1) the race distance was short, or
2) I'm not training properly.
If anyone knows i'd be interested to hear.
Hi Johnny,
Thanks for your post. I work in the Teach First events team.
We had a couple of queries regarding the 10k run distance last year, so to be sure, the event was measured and the route marked by a specialist running events company, who assured us that it was accurate.
The route is going to be slightly different this year so perhaps we could tempt you back to try to beat that PB again?
We will be starting at Potters Fields next to Tower Bridge and avoiding any steps to make it even more accessible. We will be getting the new route professionally measured ahead of the run to ensure it's exactly 10km so you can be absolutely certain of any timing.
Please feel free to call us in the events team on 0203 117 2309 or email firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any questions.
I hope to see you again in September!
Thank you for the reply.
I will definitely be back. It was a really enjoyable run.

Use special sensitivity when dealing with children and inexperienced sources or subjects.
Be sensitive when seeking or using interviews or photographs of those affected by tragedy or grief:
Show compassion for those who may be affected adversely by news coverage
Recognize that gathering and reporting information may cause harm or discomfort. Pursuit of the news is not a license for arrogance.
Be cautious about identifying juvenile suspects or victims of sex crimes.
Recognize that private people have a greater right to control information about themselves than do public officials and others who seek power, influence or attention. Only an overriding public need can justify intrusion into anyone's privacy.
Balance a criminal suspect's fair trial rights with the public's right to be informed.
Show good taste. Avoid pandering to lurid curiosity
Be judicious about naming criminal suspects before the formal filing of charges.
All Journalists should keep the people of the interview in mind. Respect their rights, privacy, thoughts, and feelings.
