Gabe Rygaard of the television show Ax Men, 45, was killed in a car crash on Friday near his home in Port Angeles, Washington.
The History Channel star's white Ford Bronco rear ended another car and then spun out into oncoming traffic. He was driving the bronco behind a black Chevy Tahoe. As it was slowing to a stop, Rygaard veered to the left, striking the side of the vehicle. As a result, the Bronco then rotated and crashed into an oncoming Dodge Ram van in the other lane.
Rygaard was not wearing a seatbelt during the accident, and he was transported to Olympic Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Rygaard is now the third cast member from Ax Men to have died in the last four years. Cast member Jimmy Smith died of cancer in 2012, and William Colantuono died a year later in a helicopter crash.
The reality star leaves behind three children and his wife Katy, who wrote on Facebook the following over the weekend:
"Yesterday I had to say good bye to my best friend, husband & father to my children. This was the hardest thing that I have ever done. Gabe was our rock. I am still having a hard time trying to get words to come out of my mouth, so I will type this. I am overwhelmed with the love that this community is pouring out to our family. People have asked what we need. We would all appreciate a lot of prayer. That is what will get us through this. Thank you and love to you all. Katy."

Hong Kong and the United States have substantially concluded discussions on an inter-governmental agreement (IGA) to simplify Hong Kong financial institutions' compliance with the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act.
The Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau (FSTB) said that the IGA "will reduce Hong Kong financial institutions' reporting burden and facilitate their compliance with the act, and will include exemptions for financial institutions or products which present low risks for US taxpayers to evade paying tax."
FATCA, enacted by the US Congress in 2010 and to take effect on July 1, 2014, is intended to ensure that the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) obtains information on financial accounts held at foreign financial institutions (FFIs) by US persons. Failure by an FFI to disclose information on their US clients will result in a requirement to withhold 30 percent tax on payments of US-sourced income.
To address situations where foreign law would prevent an FFI from complying with the terms of an FFI agreement, the US Treasury has developed model IGAs. Under the terms of the Model 2 IGA, which Hong Kong and the US are expected to sign later this year, financial institutions in Hong Kong will need to register and conclude separate individual agreements with the IRS.
Under these agreements, institutions will seek consent from their US account holders to report their account information to the US IRS annually. However, the agreements will be supplemented by exchange of information on relevant US taxpayers at the government level on a need basis and upon request, pursuant to a tax information exchange agreement signed between Hong Kong and the US in March 2014. Hong Kong's financial institutions have therefore been reminded by the FSTB to assess their relevant FATCA compliance implications for their operations and clientele. They should have the appropriate procedures and systems in place, it said.
The FSTB added that "the IGA demonstrates Hong Kong's commitments to enhancing tax transparency in the international arena. It will lower overall compliance costs for the industry and safeguard the interests of these institutions and their clients."A comprehensive report in our Intelligence Report series, analysing the situation on the ground in each of the main offshore banking centres, is available in the Lowtax Library at http://www.lowtaxlibrary.com/asp/subs_reports.asp and a description of the report can be seen at http://www.lowtaxlibrary.com/asp/description_report3.asp

Super X2: How Winchester Rates Against Browning and Beretta
In this first critical examination of a new line of scatterguns, we find that existing models�Beretta�s AL390 Silver Mallard and Browning�s Gold Hunter�beat out two new 12-gauge X2s.
Winchester's new Super X2 12-gauge auto-loader series is designed to go head to head in the marketplace against well-established marques like Browning and Beretta. Price-positioned at MSRPs ranging from $725 to $938, the X2s come in a variety of finishes, ranging from the 3-inch chamber field models with walnut stocks to the 31/2-inch black synthetic and Mossy Oak Shadow Grass camo guns for waterfowlers. But these new products seek to enter a field crowded with quality guns, so we wondered how the new Winchester guns would stack up against their prime competitors—and also against history.
Toward that end, we acquired two X2s for evaluation, a 3-inch 12-gauge field gun, $725, with a walnut...

Polish Wild Mushroom Soup
Recipe by Lorac
My favorite dinner party soup! Cooking the dried mushrooms for 4 hours produces an intense flavor that cannot be achieved with fresh mushrooms. The onions and butter (don't skimp) transform the broth into a rich, enchanting and elegant first course soup. Don't be concerned with the cooking time, this is a simple and very easy to make soup. Prep time does not include soaking overnight.
Top Review by Milena Ruszkowska
Hello! Your recipe is so far the best of these which i have found (and as I am Polish I know the real taste of mushroom soup:) But it will take less time if you soak the mushrooms in the warm boiled water (3 hours should be enough) then I think that 4 hours of cooking is not necessary; if you want a real mushroom flavour just make the soup one day in advance (by the way it works with most of the polish soups;))But the traditional recipe says that 1-2 hours of cooking is enough. This soup is the best with home made noodles. Bon apetit:) PS. Personally i prefer chicken stock, it makes the taste plus "subtil"
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄4 lb dried wild mushrooms, preferably boletus edulis (I use porcini)
- 9 cups beef stock or 9 cups canned reduced-sodium beef broth
- 1 cup butter (not margarine)
- 1 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- salt
- white pepper
- sour cream
- chopped fresh parsley
Directions See How It's Made
- Cover mushrooms with cold water and soak overnight.
- Drain the mushrooms reserving the soaking liquid, strain the liquid through a fine cloth.
- Rinse the mushrooms in cold water to remove any remaining sand then slice into strips.
- Add the mushrooms, 8 cups of of the beef stock and the soaking liquid to a 3 quart saucepan, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer over low heat 4 hours.
- Melt the butter in a heavy skillet, add the onion, sauté until golden brown then add to the soup.
- Whisk the cornstarch with the remaining cup of beef stock, add to the soup, stir and simmer until slightly thickened.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper, ladle into individual bowls, top each with 1 tbs sour cream and sprinkle with parsley.

There's no debating the success of this year's version of the Sun Devil men's basketball team. Picked to finish 4th by the media prior to the season, ASU made good on the forecast and perhaps one-upped the general media consensus with a first-round win in the NCAA Tournament. Achieving a 20-win season for the first time since 1991 and an NCAA berth for the first time since 1995, Rob Evans can hang his hat on the success of a team that "reached its potential" as he put it, and look forward with renewed vigor to the future.
However, it's impossible to look forward without a clear understanding of the past. Rob Evans has now re-built a decimated program in five years time and for that he should be congratulated. When Evans signed, players like Kyle Dodd, Shawn Redhage, Justin Allen, Tommy Smith and Donnell Knight in his first recruiting class, he knew that from a basketball perspective, it would be a tough road to hoe. Instead of going with a quick fix of troubled students and junior college players, Evans recruited a handful of quality individuals, with marginal high-major talent. It was a decision that was tough and even brought him some notable flack from impatient fans and alum even all the way up to and through this breakout season.
Now however, all five of those players are scheduled to graduate within the year, as well as seniors Curtis Millage and Chris Osborne, both of whom transferred into the program prior to the 2001-02 season. When Rob Evans or members of his staff go into the homes of some of the finest high school basketball players in the country, they can tell parents one thing that most other college coaches cannot - their players' graduate. In fact, all of those players that have stayed at ASU for the last 4-5 years will have done so under the watch of Evans.
Of course, the ASU head coach can also tell coaches, players, and parents alike that indeed, a player can go to a school where he not only will he graduate, but play in one of the best conferences in the nation, as well as play in the NCAA Tournament. Put those three factors together and combine them with the other attractive selling points of the University (facilities, academic support, etc.) and it makes for a pretty compelling argument that Arizona State is a desirable destination for any future college basketball player. Certainly, it's an argument that could not be made at many, if not most programs around the country.
And while Evans has successfully completed this part of the journey, the last twelve months certainly presented significant obstacles. First, there was the dirt-bike accident that left Kenny Crandall with a compound fracture to the lower leg, an injury that severely limited his mobility on the court this season. Late last summer, Chris Osborne was involved in a single-car traffic accident that saw his vehicle flip numerous times.
Not long after these accidents, ASU ran into other significant incidents that were perhaps even more troubling. Freshman Allen Morill was denied initial eligibility and his appeal was denied. Fellow recruit, Serge Angounou, who was expected to start at small forward, was injured in the first exhibition game of the season and was lost for the year. Worst of all, Curtis Millage was held off the court for the first several games of the season due to an academic snafu that was no fault of his own, during which time he seriously considered leaving the program.
Despite all of these incidents, Arizona State persevered and that in and of itself is a remarkable accomplishment. This is due in large part to the character of the outgoing seniors that were recruited for a specific purpose: To be a stabilizing force in the program.
The Devils could very well sneak up on a lot of people next year. With the departure of four senior starters and several other valuable role players, there's no questioning the fact that a lot of experience and productivity will be lost. That deficiency should be tempered however by the exceptional recruiting classes assembled by the coaching over the past two years.
There were rumblings from within the program that both Serge Angounou and Allen Morill were capable of starting on the team at both forward positions this past season. This is a remarkable statement considering the players they would have replaced in the lineup (Smith and Redhage) were seniors who eventually led their team to a NCAA Tournament berth. As stated above, with the addition of Angounou and Morill to the front court, there's already no doubt that next year's team will be the most physically advanced group in recent history.
Not only will the front court starters be talented and physical, but the depth in this area will impressive to say the least. Keith Wooden should compete for a starting position with either Angounou or Morill and stands a realistic chance be a substantial contributor. Any lineup combination including those three players, along with Diogu, will be among the strongest and most gifted in the Pac-10 next year. This prediction takes nothing away from the intrigue of Chris Low and Will Fameni, both of whom are highly regarded in their own right and will certainly push the aforementioned players for floor minutes.
In the back court, a battle to take over the shooting guard responsibilities left by the graduation of Curtis Millage has the potential to become the most interesting and fiercely competitive on the team. Tron Smith, a heralded top 75 national recruit and likely all-state player in California will compete with Jamal Hill and Steve Moore for playing time. It's conceivable that one of these players ends up on the fringe of the rotation. This competition should foster solid play and help create less of a drop-off than one would otherwise expect at the position.
The battle for the starting point guard position will also be another anticipated and closely watched contest. Jason Braxton has been known to shoot the ball much better in practice than in games. This has been the case for quite some time and if Braxton is able to translate his comfort level to gameday, it will be a boon to the Sun Devils. Should Braxton falter, expect the staff to play either Kevin Kruger or Tron Smith often at the point guard position. Kruger should have a stabilizing affect to offensive flow and also present a strong perimeter threat. Smith would be a legitimate weapon at point guard, particularly when the Sun Devils play motion offense, as they likely will even more in the coming season.
In that half court offense, there is less reliance on ball handling and creation from the point guard, and more emphasis on a player simply capable of being an initiator, or putting the offense into motion. There's no doubt that Smith could handle such a role, and with his athleticism and shooting ability, he would make a deadly weapon at the point.
One can expect to see more of an emphasis on the inside-outside play with Diogu getting a lot of touches early to establish himself. Defenses that collapse on Diogu will suffer more in the future than in this past season because of the added shooting weaponry brought in by this staff to compliment the young star. When teams realize that leaving shooters like Kruger, Smith, Hill, Moore and Low is ill-advised, it will open up the floor for the Pac-10 freshman of the year, especially late in ball games and prove to be a difficult offense to deal with.
Defensively there should be little if any drop-off. Angounou was widely regarded as the best and most versatile defender on the team before his injury, capable of guarding four or even five positions on the court. Allen Morill isn't far behind him and both players can translate their strength to a dramatic advantage on the glass as well. Tron Smith is a physical freshman, with the skill and desire to be a strong defender along the perimeter. Keith Wooden should be able to use his extended wingspan and nice build in the post defensively alongside Diogu. Long, strong, and athletic, the Sun Devils should be even better on the defensive end next year.
Overall, there is quite a bit to look forward to over the off-season and into the future of Sun Devil basketball program. The 2003 recruits are all scheduled to be on campus and participating in pick up games and non-structured workouts by June. The 2004 recruiting is already well underway, and with three scholarships to give the staff will look at taking the program to a level unseen since the glory days of coach Wulk. While the team's achievements and future feats may surprise some, this staff believed all along that this was where the ASU program would be at with hard work, determination and perseverance. When those same qualities are expected of players in the Arizona State program, it's no wonder that all of the effort is starting to pay dividends.

Tags: 160 channels, 250 Million Users, American Idol, app, music, partnership, Shazam, smartphones, Social TV, soundtrack, TV.
Posted 09/17/2012 at 9:48 AM
Posted 5 years ago
There are few people that own smartphones that do not have, or are not familiar with, Shazam. It has just been announced that the music identification app has reached 250 million users worldwide. That is not just people that have downloaded the app on to their phones, but have actually put it to good use to recognize a piece of music that they are unfamiliar with.
"With more than a quarter of a billion people who have used Shazam worldwide, no other app has our scale when it comes to offering the opportunity to engage with the media that interests them the most, whether it's music or television," chief executive Andrew Fisher said in a statement.
This announcement puts Shazam on the list of the top ten most downloaded apps and cements their place as the best application of its kind. On the back this news, Shazam has also announced an expansion to their social TV features, in a bid to take a share of the growing market in the US. Shazam had previously made the move into television thanks to partnerships with shows such as American Idol, and various advertisers; this new expansion transcends those partnerships and allows users to tag any show on any channel.
More than music
The app will work in the same way when watching a TV show as it does when trying to identify music in a coffee shop. You simply open the app, tap the button and let Shazam get to work. Identifying what the TV show is will be possible via your remote, so instead Shazam will deliver information on the cast of the show, trivia, news, Twitter feeds, and of course, music. There will also be links to sites such as Wikipedia and IMDB and soundtrack details.
Shazam are saying that they have over 160 channels covered from terrestrial, cable and satellite (although it will not work on some local content); this will have them rivaling the likes of GetGlue, Miso and the Yahoo-owned IntoNow. With the app already featuring on quarter of a billion smartphones, don't expect it to be long before Shazam are dominant force in the emerging social TV market.

Cooked Chocolate Fudge Icing
Recipe by Charlotte J
For those of you who like to cook your frosting.
Top Review by Jmommy209
I'm giving this recipe 5 stars for flavor. I screwed up when I tweaked some things, trying to smooth out the texture and firm up the consistency per some other reviews. I skipped the evaporated milk, using 3 Tbsp of coffee instead. I used butter instead of margarine and added 1 Tbsp of corn syrup, AFTER I had overstirred while using an ice bath to cool it down, which crystallized the sugar again (before I overstirred, the icing was smooth and silky looking). Chef #1316304 is correct, boiling the icing for a couple more minutes makes it thicker (think candy making), but stop stirring after the sugar dissolves, or you will end up with crystallization (the corn syrup should help with that a bit.) I wouldn't recommend using powdered sugar if making a cooked icing.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 cups sugar
- 3⁄4 cup cocoa
- 3⁄4 cup evaporated milk
- 3⁄4 cup margarine
Directions See How It's Made
- Put all ingredients in a large saucepan.
- When mixture comes to a boil, cook l and 1/2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and set to cool a few minutes.
- Beat to spreading consistency.
- Will frost a 2 or 3 layer cake.

This awaken intuition sleep learning resource is designed to assist the listener in gaining clear, focused, and energetically focused sense of their own innate intuitive and psychic capacities as well as remaining in a positive, grounded space when using these abilities.
Some say that we are the sum total of what we surround ourselves with. For example:
All of the above affect our overall perceptions and thought patterns. Just like the foods that we eat create our bodies over time, our thoughts shape who we are and ultimately what types of situations we manifest in our lives.
Sleep learning can benefit a listener in powerful ways. The mind stays active, even while we are sleeping. For example, a mother may sleep soundly through thunderstorms and barking dogs, yet the sound of her baby stirring in the next room will often instantly awaken her. Why not use this time (while you are asleep) to realize your potential?
In addition to therapeutic hypnotic techniques and meditative affirmations, this program is further enhanced by the use of brainwave entrainment such as solfeggio tones, isochronic tones, bilateral stimulation, and white noise. Listening at a very low volume while drifting off to sleep is ideal and won't diminish your results.
Narrated by Anna Thompson, MA, MHP, LMHC, advanced clinical hypnotherapist.
Accomplish your goals, and create the life you've always wanted starting today.

I have had the worst time falling asleep for the last few weeks. I am thinking it has to do with a medication that I am on. Got this audio book with little hope thinking, "what the heck". I was pleasantly surprised to find that I managed to not only sleep, but I slept soundly for the first time in forever. Woohoo!

Published on Feb 12, 2016 Editor's Pick In this four-minute online film released by the Bernie Sanders campaign, Erica Garner talks about her life as an activist in the wake of the 2014 death of her father Eric, who died in a police chokehold that a bystander caught on video. (A New York grand jury declined to bring charges against the officer who killed Eric Garner. The U.S. Justice Department then launched a civil rights investigation; a grand jury is currently hearing evidence on the case.) "I was able to see my dad die on national TV," she says in the powerful film, before going on to explain why she identifies with Sen. Sanders and has endorsed him. Clips of Sanders speaking on the campaign trail -- "When a police officer breaks the law, that officer must be held accountable," he says -- are interspersed with scenes of Garner leading street protests. Titled "It's Not Over," the film was directed by Paul Hairston and Julian Mulvey out of New York production company Acres. MSNBC political correpondent Kasie Hunt tweeted last night: "Sanders campaign has a 2-minute Erica Garner vid they will air on national cable. They tried to buy 4 min on CNN, MSNBC, BET -- turned down." In a follow-up response to one of her followers on Twitter, she added, "There just isn't any such thing as a 4-minute commercial break so it's not really possible to air an ad that long." As CNN reported, Bernie Sanders met with civil rights activist Al Sharpton in Harlem on Wednesday, as "part of the Vermont senator's effort to court support among the African-American community." Among the topics they discussed: police brutality. Last August, a Gallop poll indicated that Hillary Clinton enjoyed an 80% favorable rating among U.S. blacks; at the time only 33% of U.S. blacks had heard of Bernie Sanders. Previously, Sen. Sanders' campaign released an ad that called on diverse groups to "Vote Together," as well as another, set to Simon & Garfunkel's "America," that tugged on heartstrings.

It's A Bright Christmas At The Pawn Shop
Haven't finished your shopping yet, but you don't have much cash? "Try a pawn shop," says Chris Upton, vice president of operations of the Money Mart Pawn chain of resale shops. "We've got a lot of people coming in looking for bargains; I guess that's spurred on by tough times."
Besides everything being cheaper than buying new, Upton tells Hair Balls you'll find the unexpected at pawn shops.
He reports that recently Money Mart Pawn stores have sold a 1964 G.I. Joe action figure, a five foot tall suit of armor, and a singing Elvis Presley head (we're guessing he meant a singing replica of Elvis Presley's head). Upton's also seen a chandelier and a Scooby Doo telephone, and 10-point mounted deer head (what's with the heads at Money Mart?). They also regularly stock paintings and appliances. "A lot of people might not think of getting a washer and dryer for Christmas, but we've got them if they want them.," he says.
If you're thinking about buying something shinny, Upton says you'll plenty to choose from. "Jewelry is probably half of our business. We get from the very inexpensive rings to the estate pieces, so there's a wide choice - and price range." (Hair Balls suggests that you check the inside of rings for inscriptions, you don't want you sweetie going around with Love, Sancho written on the inside of her wedding band. Unless your name is Sancho, of course.)

If you need one more reason to shop pawn, remember that recycling is good for the environment. "Each item that you buy from us means that a new item doesn't have to be produced," he happily tells Hair Balls.
Finally, Upton says go ahead and haggle over prices when you're making your pawn shop purchases. It's not only polite, it's expected.

MOORESVILLE, N.C. – In last April's 250-lap event at Richmond (Va.) International Raceway, Kurt Busch and the No. 54 Monster Energy team captured the first NASCAR Nationwide Series win for his younger brother's startup program. This time around there is a new driver behind the wheel, a new crew chief calling the shots, a new number on the side of Kyle Busch Motorsports' (KBM) Nationwide Series entry and a new race sponsor for this year's Richmond spring event, but Parker Kligerman and his No. 77 Toyota Camry team are hoping to replicate the team's historic win from last year and make a trip to victory lane at the end of Friday's ToyotaCare 250. One thing that will be the same for this year's race is the primary chassis that the team is bringing. First-year Nationwide Series crew chief Eric Phillips and his Toyota Racing team will unload KBM-09, which is the same Camry that the elder Busch drove to victory in last year's event. Kligerman – who currently sits sixth in the Nationwide Series driver point standings – piloted the Toyota earlier this season at Phoenix, but was relegated to a 19th-place finish after experiencing a brake issue in the race and collected the wall. Despite having many personnel changes this season, Kligerman and the No. 77 are strides ahead of where KBM's Nationwide Series program was at this time a year ago. After six races last season, the No. 54 bunch ranked 15th in the Nationwide Series owner's championship standings, had recorded just one top-10 finish and posted an average finish of 19.5. This year, the team enters Friday's race ranked eighth in the owner's championship standings, hs already recorded two top-five and three top-10 finishes and currently boast an average finish of 13.2. Kligerman knows a thing or two about replicating the elder Busch brother on the track, having tested his Sprint Cup Series cars at Penske Racing from 2009 to 2011. Now, the talented youngster hopes to imitate his boss's brother once again and bring another Richmond trophy home to KBM Friday night. Parker Kligerman, Driver of the No. 77 NNS Toyota Camry: What is your outlook heading into Richmond? "Richmond is a track that when you think about it, you think about the word 'excitement.' This year it is really special, having ToyotaCare as the sponsor of the race and also having Toyota as a sponsor on our car. It gives you a little extra incentive to go out and run well. Hopefully, I can run as well as I did the first time I was there – qualified seventh and ran in the top 10 all day until I made a slight mistake on pit road. If I can alleviate mistakes like that, I think we can go out and put this Toyota Camry in victory lane. KBM was able to get their first win in the Nationwide Series last year in this race with Kurt – it would be a great time to get our first win this year." How would you describe the layout at Richmond? "Richmond is a very unique short track. It has a lot of speed and a unique design in terms of being a D-shaped oval — because of that shape; it has two vastly different corners. Turns 1 and 2 are wide – it's a sweeping corner and you generate a lot of speed down the straightaway before you enter it. Drive off is one of the things that we fight with that corner, in terms of being able to get the power down on exit. Turns 3 and 4 are more of your traditionally-banked short track corners and you roll a lot of speed through it into the center. A car that can roll speed through the center and then be able to put the power down, is a car that can definitely contend for the win at Richmond." Eric Phillips, Crew Chief of the No. 77 NNS Toyota Camry: Will you be using anything from last year's notebook when KBM's Nationwide Series team won this same race with Kurt Busch? "You definitely can. We are actually bringing the same Camry that Kurt won with last year with a similar setup that has a lot of the same pieces and parts — it's a base setup from our Truck Series program that we have had a lot of success with on the short tracks the last few years. Last year's team ran really well in both Richmond races, so we just tweaked on a few little things where we thought they had a few minor issues and could use a little improvement. Hopefully, that will allow us to be a little bit better." Parker Kligerman's No. 77 Toyota Camry: KBM-09: KBM-09 will make its second start of 2013 in Friday's ToyotaCare 250 at Richmond. This is the same Camry that Kurt Busch scored KBM's lone Nationwide Series win with in last year's April Richmond race. It has four top-five finishes across seven career starts. The last time it was in action, Kligerman was relegated to a 19th-place finish at Phoenix after experiencing an issue with the brakes mid-race that resulted in contact with the wall.

Born in 1737, Madame Suzanne Necker, née Curchod, had quite the simple upbringing in Switzerland as the daughter of a pastor from Crassier, a village near Lausanne. While Suzanne's family was quite poor, she did receive a good education. But you know what they say about the daughter of a preacher man and, chère, Suzanne was no exception.
Edward Gibbon
It was not long before her bucolic, sheltered Swiss life would become a little saucy. When she was 20, Suzanne fell under the spell of a dashing Brit, Edward Gibbon. Edward was from a good family and would go on to become a historian and member of parliament. The young couple, however, was prevented from marrying by Edward's father who objected to the match. (And, truth be told, Suzanne was a bit hesitant to leave her native Switzerland for the unknown shores of England.)
Jacques Necker
Exit Edward and enter Jacques Necker, an ambitious Swiss financier. But their courtship was not so simple and this, my dears, is where things get a little intriguing with a soupçon of scandal. It was 1764, and Jacques was already living in France and in love with a Madame de Verménou. While on a visit to Geneva, Madame met Suzanne, found her endearing and brought her back to Paris as her companion. You can probably guess what happened next. Jacques became smitten with Suzanne's country charms and left the wealthy Madame behind to marry the Swiss miss. In April 1766, they had a daughter, Anne Louise Germaine Necker, who went on to become a renowned author under the name of Madame de Staёl.
Delphine, the first novel by Madame de Staёl, examines the limits of women's freedom in an aristocratic society
Not content with simply raising their daughter, Suzanne launched a salon that soon became the talk of the town with Parisian luminaries discussing art and literature and gossiping over petits-fours about the latest intrigues of society. Among the regular visitors were the most eminent men of letters of her time – Buffon, Marmontel, Grimm, Diderot, d'Alembert and Morellet – as well as a whole host of Swiss expatriates.
In 1776, Jacques became the finance minister under King Louis XVI of France, some say thanks to the success of Suzanne's salons, and in spite of the disadvantage of his Protestant religion and Swiss roots. Suzanne, they say, would have liked to be a woman of letters, but Jacques' dislike of bluestocking authors dissuaded her from taking up the plume. Her surviving writings are few: Mémoire sur l'Etablissement des hospices (1786) and Réflexions sur le divorce (1794).
Jacques' efforts towards financial reform soon made him unpopular at court and, once he lost power in 1789, the Neckers left the pressure cooker of Paris for the tranquil life of Switzerland, barely escaping the turmoils of the French revolution. In 1794, Suzanne died at Beaulieu Castle. Besides the legacy of her brilliant literary salon, Suzanne founded a hospital in Paris in 1784 and the Hôpital Necker – Enfants Malades still bears her name.
This morsel of historic fun is part of our Dames series, which celebrates the salonnieres of the past.

Scotch Blue Pre-Taped Film and Dispenser Review
Casa Beta: Scotch Blue Painter's Tape and Film
Through much trial and error, I've learned that even the smallest of touch-up jobs (and the steadiest of hands) require a little tape — and it's not a bad idea to cover up places where you don't want to see splatters either. A mini paint project was on my to-do list, but I didn't want to have to deal with dragging out the huge plastic sheets for such a little task. I also couldn't bear the thought of ruining my floor due to laziness, which is why I purchased Scotch-Blue Pre-Taped Film & Dispenser ($13). I'm a skeptic when it comes to products that claim to "do it all," so to see if this hardware store find met my needs, just
Overall Scotch's combo tape worked great for my small project. It easily covered the parts that I didn't want to paint, and when everything was all dry, clean-up was a breeze! The film folds out to give about two feet of coverage, and the blue tape works just as well as standard painting tape. In the future I may skip on the dispenser since a pair of scissors could cut it with ease, but overall I have no real complaints. I'll be keeping a roll or two on hand and I highly recommend this combo product for any small painting jobs (especially for protecting floor boards). For bigger tasks, I'd stick to your preferred painter's tape (such as Frog Tape), and rolling out some plastic, or a sheet.

There are many things you can do to ensure that your framed art remains in the same condition as the day you got it. You can reinforce staples and the structure of the frame, and you can even applying matting. Many framed art pieces, especially those that are older, have lost or damaged backing paper. This paper has the main purpose of preventing dust and excessive moisture from accumulating inside the frame and damaging the artwork.
Things You'll Need
- Double-sided acid-free tape
- Craft knife or box cutter
- Backing paper (available in rolls)
- Popsicle stick/craft stick
Cut a piece of backing paper that is roughly 2 inches longer and wider than the frame.
Remove any hanging hardware from the back of the frame. You may need to use a small screwdriver or claw hammer to remove finishing nails or screws.
Apply double-sided acid free tape along the edges of the back of the frame.
Place the backing paper onto the frame, lining the paper up as evenly as possible with the 2 extra inches hanging over.
Use the craft stick to press the backing paper to the tape and smooth it out so there are no wrinkles in the paper.
Use the craft knife or box cutter to trim away the excess paper. Use the outside edges of the frame as your cutting guide, making sure the sharp blade does not come in contact with the frame.
Reattach any hanging hardware, or replace it with new hardware.
Tips & Warnings
- Do not attach or reattach hanging hardware in the corner joints; this can cause separation and the frame can fall apart.

Exercises Engenharia de Software (cod & 6633 )
- Tracy Todd
- 2 years ago
- Views:
1 Exercises Engenharia de Software (cod & 6633 ) Departamento de Informática Universidade da Beira Interior Ano lectivo 2010/2011 These exercises are taken from Software Engineering, 9th edition, Pearson Education, Simão Melo de Sousa Chapter 1. Introduction to Software Engineering 1. What is the most important dierence between generic software product development and custom software development? What might this mean in practice for users of generic software products? 2. What are the four important attributes that all professional software should have? Suggest four other attributes that may sometimes be significant. 3. Apart from the challenges of heterogeneity, business and social change and trust and security, identify other problems and challenges that software engineering is likely to face in the 21st century (hint: think about the environment). 4. Based on your own knowledge of some of the application types discussed in section 1.1.2, explain, with examples, why dierent application types require specialized software engineering techniques to support their design and development. 5. Discuss whether professional engineers should be certied in the same way as doctors or lawyers. Chapter 2. Software Processes 1. Giving reasons for your answer based on the type of system being developed, suggest the most appropriate generic software process model that might be used as a basis for managing the development of the following systems: 1
2 A system to control anti-lock braking in a car A virtual reality system to support software maintenance A university accounting system that replaces an existing system An interactive travel planning system that helps users plan journeys with the lowest environmental impact 2. Consider the reuse-based process model shown in Figure 2.3. Explain why it is essential to have two separate requirements engineering activities in the process. 3. Suggest why it is important to make a distinction between developing the user requirements and developing system requirements in the requirements engineering process. 4. Explain why change is inevitable in complex systems and give examples (apart from prototyping and incremental delivery) of software process activities that help predict changes and make the software being developed more resilient to change. 5. What are the advantages of providing static and dynamic views of the software process as in the Rational Unied Process? Chapter 3. Agile Software Development 1. Explain how the principles underlying agile methods lead to the accelerated development and deployment of software. 2. When would you recommend against the use of an agile method for developing a software system? 3. Extreme programming expresses user requirements as stories, with each story written on a card. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this approach to requirements description. 4. Suggest four reasons why the productivity rate of programmers working as a pair might be more than half that of two programmers working individually. 5. It has been suggested that one of the problems of having a user closely involved with a software development team is that they âgo nativeâ. That is, they adopt the outlook of the development team and lose sight of the needs of their user colleagues. Suggest three ways how you might avoid this problem and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. Chapter 4. Requirements Engineering 1. Discover ambiguities or omissions in the following statement of requirements for part of a ticket-issuing system: 2
3 An automated ticket-issuing system sells rail tickets. Users select their destination and input a credit card and a personal identication number. The rail ticket is issued and their credit card account charged. When the user presses the start button, a menu display of potential destinations is activated, along with a message to the user to select a destination. Once a destination has been selected, users are requested to input their credit card. Its validity is checked and the user is then requested to input a personal identier. When the credit transaction has been validated, the ticket is issued. 2. Write a set of non-functional requirements for the ticket-issuing system, setting out its expected reliability and response time. 3. Suggest how an engineer responsible for drawing up a system requirements specication might keep track of the relationships between functional and non-functional requirements. 4. Using your knowledge of how an ATM is used, develop a set of use cases that could serve as a basis for understanding the requirements for an ATM system. 5. When emergency changes have to be made to systems, the system software may have to be modied before changes to the requirements have been approved. Suggest a model of a process for making these modications that will ensure that the requirements document and the system implementation do not become inconsistent. Chapter 5. System Modelling 1. How might you use a model of a system that already exists? Explain why it is not always necessary for such a system model to be complete and correct. Would the same be true if you were developing a model of a new system? 2. Develop a sequence diagram showing the interactions involved when a student registers for a course in a university. Courses may have limited enrolment, so the registration process must include checks that places are available. Assume that the student accesses an electronic course catalog to nd out about available courses 3. Look carefully at how messages and mailboxes are represented in the system that you use. Model the object classes that might be used in the system implementation to represent a mailbox and an message. 4. Based on your experience with a bank ATM, draw an activity diagram that models the data processing involved when a customer withdraws cash from the machine. 5. You are a software engineering manager and your team proposes that model-driven engineering should be used to develop a new system. What factors should you take into account when deciding whether or not to introduce this new approach to software development? 3
4 Chapter 6. Architectural Design 1. When describing a system, explain why you may have to design the system architecture before the requirements specication is complete. 2. Explain why design conicts might arise when designing an architecture for which both availability and security requirements are the most important non-functional requirements. 3. Explain how you would use the reference model of CASE environments (available on the bookâs web pages) to compare the IDEs oered by different vendors of a programming language such as Java. 4. Using the generic model of a language processing system presented here, design the architecture of a system that accepts natural language commands and translates these into database queries in a language such as SQL. 5. Using the basic model of an information system as presented in Figure 6.16, suggest the components that might be part of an information system that allows users to view information about ights arriving and departing from a particular airport. Chapter 7. Design and Implementation 1. Using the structured notation shown in Figure 3 of chapter 7, specify the weather station use cases for Report status and Recongure. You should make reasonable assumptions about the functionality that is required here. 2. Using the UML graphical notation for object classes, design the following object classes, identifying attributes and operations. Use your own experience to decide on the attributes and operations that should be associated with these objects. (a) a telephone (b) a printer for a personal computer (c) a personal stereo system (d) a bank account (e) a library catalogue 3. Draw a sequence diagram showing the interactions of objects in a group diary system, when a group of people are arranging a meeting. 4. Using examples, explain why conguration management is important when a team of people are developing a software product. 5. A small company has developed a specialized product that it congures specially for each customer. New customers usually have specic requirements to be incorporated into their system, and they pay for these to be developed. The company has an opportunity to bid for a new contract, which would more than double its customer base. The new customer also 4
5 wishes to have some involvement in the conguration of the system. Explain why, in these circumstances, it might be a good idea for the company owning the software to make it open source. Chapter 8. Software Testing 1. Explain why testing can only detect the presence of errors, not their absence. 2. You have been asked to test a method called catwhitespace in a Paragraph object that, within the paragraph, replaces sequences of blank characters with a single blank character. Identify testing partitions for this example and derive a set of tests for the catwhitespace method. 3. What is regression testing? Explain how the use of automated tests and a testing framework such as JUnit simplies regression testing. 4. Write a scenario that could be used to help design tests for the wilderness weather station system. 5. What do you understand by the term stress testing? Suggest how you might stress test the MHC-PMS. 5

A maintainer can be active and still neglecting some packages. Of course, this happens. But this is not covered by that policy. > Still, there ought to be a better solution. Comaintainership? There is no formal procedure in that case, with Rahul we proposed forced co-maintainership, but the policy was rejected by FESCo. FESCo said that this would be revised when provenpackager is done. I don't think anything changed with provenpackager, but, in any case, since it has been implemented, FESCo could revisit it. Still this is a controversial and touchy subject, the balance between bureaucracy and no handling of bugs is not an easy one. Actually the focus was only on bugs with a fix provided or discussed, not for every bugs, in our proposal: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RahulSundaram/CollectiveMaintenance -- Pat


text: The district includes the Klappibacken project. On February 29, 2008, Mawson filed on its company profile on www.sedar.com a technical report dated February 28, 2008 entitled "Technical Report on the Review of Three Uranium Properties in Northern Sweden: Klappibacken, Duobblon and Tassjo", written by Mr. Andrew Browne of GeoSynthesis Pty. Ltd. The author prepared a resource estimate on the Klappibacken deposit on behalf of Mawson. This resource estimate comprises an Indicated Resource of 1.28 million tonnes averaging 0.077% U3O8 and containing 2.17 million pounds of U3O8. The estimate was based on 34 diamond drill holes totaling 4,220 metres. On July 16, 2008 Mawson issued a news release updating this resource estimate. The updated estimate was prepared by Mr. Andrew Browne of GeoSynthesis Pty. Ltd. and incorporated results from an additional 20 diamond drill holes completed after publication of the February 2008 resource estimate. The updated resource estimate comprises a Measured and Indicated Resource of 1.94 million tonnes averaging 0.08% U3O8, containing 3.3 million pounds of U3O8 using a cut-off of 0.025% U3O8. Tournigan considers these resource estimates to be relevant but Tournigan has not independently verified the estimates. A qualified person has not done sufficient work to classify the historical estimate as a current mineral resource and Tournigan is not treating the historical estimate as a current mineral resource.Other exploration results include discovery of sixty-six uranium mineralized outcrops within the exploration claims over an area of 8 kilometres by 7 kilometres surrounding the Klappibacken project. Sampling results from these outcrops included forty assays above 0.05% U3O8, which ranged from 0.05% U3O8 to 8.04% U3O8 and averaged 0.79% U3O8. The discovery of these uranium mineralized outcrops is significant considering that outcropping rock accounts for less than 10% of the surface area in the Hotagen district, with the remainder of the area blanketed under a thin 1-2 metre soil veneer.

For Amber Heard, the cancellation of The Playboy Club in the midst of its rookie season wasn't all bad news. The 25-year-old actress has returned to Los Angeles, where she has been reunited with her classic '68 Mustang -- the vehicle she refers to simply as "my baby."
The car buff refused to take her prized possession to face the harsh Midwest weather conditions. "I didn't want my baby to rust in Chicago," Heard tells Drive On.
How deep is her love for the car? It takes little prompting for her to dig through her bag to find her iPhone to pull up pictures of the beautiful machine. "Some people have pictures of their dog," she says laughing. "But here's my baby."
The love affair continues with other cars, as well. On screen Heard has a memorable classic Corvette convertible scene speeding along a Puerto Rican highway with Johnny Depp in The Rum Diary, opening Friday. It was her favorite scene in the movie, and possibly of her career.
Off screen, she loves talking about her car history. She drove a vintage Checker Cab for a spell. "But I wrecked it," she says. "Totaled." And Heard still seems to feel the pain of having to sell her '62 Mercedes. "It was so beautiful," she sighs. While her '68 Mustang is here to stay ("It's not going anywhere, I've had it for seven years," she says), Heard admits to being in the market for another classic.
"It has to be vintage," she says. "There's a grace to things that come from that period." Needless to say, this is a woman who knows a thing or two about grace.
