Databases from finite categories
Spivak and Kent (2011). Ologs: A categorical framework for knowledge representation:
Ologs are essentially RDFs extended to encompass commuting diagrams, so a visual little language. The paper talks about how database schema can automatically be extracted from ologs.

Type Systems as Macros
Type Systems as Macros, by Stephen Chang, Alex Knauth, Ben Greenman:
This looks pretty awesome considering it's not limited to simple typed languages, but extends all the way to System F and F-omega! Even better, they can reuse previous type systems to define new ones, thereby reducing the effort to implement more expressive type systems. All code and further details available here, and here's a blog post where Ben Greenman further discusses the related "type tailoring", and of course, these are both directly related to Active Libraries.
Taken to its extreme, why not have an assembler with a powerful macro system of this sort as your host language, and every high-level language would be built on this. I'm not sure if this approach would extend that far, but it's an interesting idea. You'd need a cpp-like highly portable macro tool, and porting to a new platform consists of writing architecture-specific macros for some core language, like System F.
This work may also conceptually dovetail with another thread discussing fexprs and compilation.

kdb+ 3.5 released last month
kdb+ is a real-time time series database, known in the financial services universe as the fastest tick database on the market. It was first conceived by Arthur Whitney at Morgan Stanley as a prototype, and over the last 35+ years has grown to add many features. The database makes such aggressive usage of mmap() POSIX function for mapping file chunks into main memory, to the point where it has exposed issues with the implementation of mmap itself.
Recently, the company now behind kdb+ has also built Kx for DAAS (Data-as-a-Service), which is basically a cloud-based, massively clustered version of kdb+ that deals with the curious oddity that kdb+ is effectively entirely singly threaded. For those interested in reading more about kdb+'s unique cloud architecture (as compared to "big data" solutions like Hadoop), you can read the following whitepapers as suggestive guidelines for how the q community thinks about truly "big data" several orders of magnitude faster and larger than most Hadoop data sets:
While I don't suggest these papers are the blueprint for copying/mimicking the DAAS product, it does help the LtU reader imagine a "different world" of data processing than the often cited Map/Reduce paper and other more mainstream approaches. What is particularly striking is how tiny q.exe (the program that runs kdb+ and provides a CLI for q scripting) is. Language researchers are looking at provably correct C compilers, and it is not a huge leap to think about the world soon seeing provably correct real-time time series databases using kdb+ as an inspiration.
Another curiosity, relevant to us here at LtU, is that kdb+ has its own programming language, q. q is a variant of APL with a special library for statistics. Most "big data" solutions don't have native implementations for weighted average, which is a fairly important and frequently used function in quantitative finance, useful for computing volume weighted average price (VWAP) as well as tilt and weighted spread. q is itself implemented in another language, k. The whole language of each is just a couple lines of (terse) code.

Prolog vs mini-Kanren

The complexity of abstract machines
I previously wrote about a brand of research by Guy Blelloch on the Cost semantics for functional languages, which let us make precise claim about the complexity of functional programs without leaving their usual and comfortable programming models (beta-reduction).
While the complexity behavior of weak reduction strategies, such as call-by-value and call-by-name, is by now relatively well-understood, the lambda-calculus has a much richer range of reduction strategies, in particular those that can reduce under lambda-abstractions, whose complexity behavior is sensibly more subtle and was, until recently, not very well understood. (This has become a practical concern since the rise in usage of proof assistants that must implement reduction under binders and are very concerned about the complexity of their reduction strategy, which consumes a lot of time during type/proof-checking.)
Beniamino Accatoli, who has been co-authoring a lot of work in that area, recently published on arXiv a new paper that has survey quality, and is a good introduction to this area of work and other pointers from the literature.

Do Be Do Be Do
Monads and algebraic effects are general concepts that give a definition of what a "side-effect" can be: an instance of monad, or an instance of algebraic effect, is a specific realization of a side-effect. While most programming languages provide a fixed family of built-in side-effects, monads or algebraic effects give a structured way to introduce a new notion of effect as a library.
A recent avenue of programming language research is how to locally define several realizations of the same effect interface/signature. There may be several valid notions of "state" or "non-determinism" or "probabilistic choice", and different parts of a program may not require the same realization of those -- a typical use-case would be mocking an interaction with the outside world, for example. Can we let users locally define a new interpretation of an effect, or write code that is generic over the specific interpretation? There are several existing approaches, such as monad transformer stacks, free monads interpreters, monad reification and, lately, effect handlers, as proposed in the programming language Eff.
Frank, presented in the publication below, is a new language with user-defined effects that makes effect handling a natural part of basic functional programming, instead of a separate, advanced feature. It is a significant advance in language design, simplifying effectful programming. Functions, called operators, do not just start computing a result from the value of their arguments, they interact with the computation of those arguments by having the opportunity to handle any side-effects arising during their evaluation. It feels like a new programming style, a new calling convention that blends call-by-value and effect handling -- Sam Lindley suggested the name call-by-handling.
Frank also proposes a new type-and-effect system that corresponds to this new programming style. Operators handle some of the effects raised by their arguments, and silently forward the rest to the computation context; their argument types indicate which effects they handle. In other words, the static information carried by an argument types is the delta/increment between the effects permitted by the ambient computation and the effects of evaluating this argument. Frank calls this an adjustment over the ambient ability. This delta/increment style results in lightweight types for operators that can be used in different contexts (a form of effect polymorphism) without explicit quantification over effect variables. This design takes part in a research conversation on how to make type-and-effect systems usable, which is the major roadblock for their wider adoption -- Koka and Links are also promising in that regard, and had to explore elaborate conventions to elide their polymorphic variables.
Another important part of Frank's type-system design is the explicit separation between values that are and computations that do. Theoretical works have long made this distinction (for example with Call-By-Push-Value), but programmers are offered the dichotomy of either having only effectful expressions or expressing all computations as values (Haskell's indirect style). Frank puts that distinction in the hands of the user -- this is different from distinguishing pure from impure computations, as done in F* or WhyML.
If you wish to play with the language, a prototype implementation is available.

Contextual isomorphisms
Contextual Isomorphisms
This paper is based on a very simple idea that everyone familiar with type-systems can enjoy. It then applies it in a technical setting in which it brings a useful contribution. I suspect that many readers will find that second part too technical, but they may still enjoy the idea itself. To facilitate this, I will rephrase the abstract above in a way that I hope makes it accessible to a larger audience.
The problem that the paper solves is: how do we know what it means
for two types to be equivalent? For many languages they are reasonable
definitions of equivalence (such that: there exists a bijection
between these two types in the language), but for more advanced
languages these definitions break down. For example, in presence of
hidden mutable state, one can build a pair of functions from the
one-element type
To define what it means for two program fragments to be equivalent, we have a "gold standard", which is contextual equivalence: two program fragments are contextually equivalent if we can replace one for the other in any complete program without changing its behavior. This is simple to state, it is usually clear how to instantiate this definition for a new system, and it gives you a satisfying notion of equivalent. It may not be the most convenient one to work with, so people define others, more specific notions of equivalence (typically beta-eta-equivalence or logical relations); it is fine if they are more sophisticated, and their definiton harder to justify or understand, because they can always be compared to this simple definition to gain confidence.
The simple idea in the paper above is to use this exact same trick to define what it means for two types to be equivalent. Naively, one could say that two types are equivalent if, in any well-typed program, one can replace some occurrences of the first type by occurrences of the second type, all other things being unchanged. This does not quite work, as changing the types that appear in a program without changing its terms would create ill-typed terms. So instead, the paper proposes that two types are equivalent when we are told how to transform any program using the first type into a program using the second type, in a way that is bijective (invertible) and compositional -- see the paper for details.
Then, the author can validate this definition by showing that, when instantiated to languages (simple or complex) where existing notions of equivalence have been proposed, this new notion of equivalence corresponds to the previous notions.
(Readers may find that even the warmup part of the paper, namely the sections 1 to 4, pages 1 to 6, are rather dense, with a compactly exposed general idea and arguably a lack of concrete examples that would help understanding. Surely this terseness is in large part a consequence of strict page limits -- conference articles are the tweets of computer science research. A nice side-effect (no pun intended) is that you can observe a carefully chosen formal language at work, designed to expose the setting and perform relevant proofs in minimal space: category theory, and in particular the concept of naturality, is the killer space-saving measure here.)

Joe Armstrong Interviews Alan Kay
Youtube video (via HN)
By far not the best presentation of Kay's ideas but surely a must watch for fans. Otherwise, skip until the last third of the interview which might add to what most people here already know.
It is interesting that in this talk Kay rather explicitly talks about programming languages as abstraction layers. He also mentions some specifics that may not be as well known as others, yet played a role in his trajectory, such as META.
I fully sympathize with his irritation with the lack of attention to and appreciation of fundamental concepts and theoretical frameworks in CS. On the other hand, I find his allusions to biology unconvincing.

Chicken Breast With Prosciutto and Fontina Cheese
Be the first to review
READY IN: 50mins
Recipe by ChefSully
I viewed the making of this chicken dish on Lidia's Italian Kitchen. It turned out as delicious as it looked and it's easy to make. It's a little time consuming, but well worth the wait. The fontina and proscuitto parma can be found in any supermarket or Italian specialty store. You will need an oven-safe 9 inch skillet.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
- 6 boneless chicken breasts, with skins on
- 6 slices Fontina cheese
- 6 slices prosciutto di Parma
- 8 ounces tomato sauce (bottled or store bought)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1⁄4 cup olive oil
Directions See How It's Made
- With a mallet, gently pound each chicken breast between waxed paper.
- The breasts should be one inch thick.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Place one slice of proscuitto on top of each chicken breast.
- With the back of your knife, tap the proscuitto lightly on the chicken breast.
- This will make the proscuitto adhere to the chicken.
- Preheat your 9" skillet with the oil until it becomes hot, not smokey.
- Turn heat to medium/high.
- Lay each piece of chicken, proscuitto side down, into the oiled pan.
- Turn the heat down to medium.
- Let it be.
- Moving the chicken around will cause it to become tough.
- Cook for 3- 4 minutes or until golden brown on one side.
- Gently turn the chicken pieces over and continue to cook.
- While the chicken is browning, add the tomato sauce to the pan.
- Continue to cook the chicken in the tomato sauce for another 3- 4 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour into the tomato sauce.
- The sauce will begin to thicken.
- Once this side is golden brown, lay one slice of fontina cheese on top of each chicken breast.
- Place the skillet into the preheated oven and cook for another 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven, plate and serve with pasta, rice or lentils.
- Serve with crusty Italian bread.

EDF Energy has created a showcase training facility in South West England to inspire innovation, creativity and interaction for all EDF Energy staff. It will provides a leading-edge residential training centre, with 50 en-suite bedrooms plus pioneering technology, a case study for the tasteful and sensitive refurbishment of historic buildings.
BDG worked with EDF Energy from the outset, assisting in the selection of the Grade I 900 year old Priory building at Cannington Court as their new UK Training Centre. The site comprises of seven distinct building types, at the heart of the site is the Cannington Court building, dating from 1138 together with landscaping and car-parking across a site of approximately 0.4 hectares all within the Cannington Conservation area. Two of the buildings are listed; Cannington Court, Grade I and Priory Barn, Grade II.
From the outset the use of carbon free energy generation was planned and the site now generates up to 50% of it's energy requirements through site based ground-sourced heat pumps, radiant solar panels and solar voltaic panels. All these features were designed and implemented with minimum impact to the historic context of the site.
BDG worked alongside specialist heritage architecture practice Bedford & Jobson in the delivery of this restoration project.

I have been using Nullo for many years. I have found that you need to determine how many tablets and how often to take, in order to get a good result. For example, for me, two tablets once a day work fine. Taking one tab am and one pm did not have desired effect. These tabs work better than other brands containing chlorophyll. I have never seen it in liquid form. Maybe call company rep and discuss..

A nice, light no-bake dessert that's a cross between cake and pudding! Easy and delicious! I made mine low-fat by using low-fat cream cheese and lite whipped topping.
1 In a saucepan, combine cherries, sugar and flour. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly. Continue to boil for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
2 In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and vanilla until smooth. fold in whipped topping. Pour half of the cream cheese mixture into a 9×12 inch glass dish.
3 Crumble the angel food cake and sprinkle evenly over the top of cream cheese mixture in dish. Spread remaining cream cheese mixture over cake. Cover top with cherry mixture. Refrigerate for at least 5 hours.

Wonderful travel mirror
By Denise
from Mountain Iron, MN
I bought this for a gift for my husband prior to traveling out of the country. It was the perfect gift for him! Very sturdy and easy to mount, it packed well too. The light on it is intensely bright. It did turn on during transit while traveling, but with brand new batteries in it, it was fine. We could have removed them but it does take a small screwdriver and we just didn't have one handy at the time.

The mirror works well and gets the job done
By Pops

Very clear, fog free as claimed and works well. I gave it four stars because I think it could be better. The light is bright, but will not turn off if damp and if the image was magnified it would be more pleasant to the eyes. It is very light duty, but gets the job done and I am pleased.

The 'touch' light turns on and off randomly. Also, it doesn't usually work properly when one wants to turn it on and off on purpose. It will come on during the night even, waking us in the adjoining bedroom. At this cost, it should work correctly.When it started doing this we had already thrown away the package and used it for a short time so could not return it.

Bethany Dialogue June
Pastor's Piece
I ran across this quote by Amanda Christian recently, and it seems a good thing to remember as Bethany Church enters yet another new beginning. Here's the quote: "Whatever the new beginning is for you right now, allow yourself to be swept away by the sweet freedom that comes with it. Growth is around the corner."
I like the quote because it is fearless. For me, new beginnings can be an unsettling time of uncertainty mixed with fear. I wake up at night with those scary 3 am questions, "What if this doesn't work out? What if I can't handle it? What if I fail? What if this is a really bad idea?" It is really easy to get caught up in the fear and uncertainty, but if we do, that often means we miss the exciting possibilities that the new beginning brings.
We are poised on the cusp of a new beginning at Bethany Church. Our staff is smaller, but our desires to do ministry are as big as they ever were. We must not allow ourselves to get all Eeyore-y, worrying because things aren't the same, longing for what is gone, and afraid that we might fail.
Rather, let's be people of faith, pushing aside the fear and pessimism. Let's resolve to move into the future positively, viewing this time as an opportunity to risk trying new things, with that giddy sense of sweet freedom that comes with new beginnings. If we do, it is quite likely that all different kinds of growth are around the corner. For with God, all things are possible!
May God bless us with sweetness and hope!

FY 2015 Finance Update from Bethany's Board of Directors
As of April 30, 2015, we are ten months through the current fiscal year. Thanks to the generosity of the Bethany community we have received operating income of $174,476 which is 84% of the total estimated income for this fiscal year. Operating expenses through the end of April totaled $211,598, which is 71% of anticipated costs for this fiscal year.
Despite the fact that costs continue to run lower than projected, expenses exceed income. We anticipated this situation when the congregation approved the current financial operating plan at our meeting in September. As discussed then, we are drawing on investment funds and the Jackman bequest to cover the gap. If you would like to read the financial statements, copies are available for review in the church office.
Many thanks to everyone who participates in our vital and dynamic community of faith!
Snacks for Kids
Children are often at DCF in Barre for stretches of time because of court hearings or family visits. The office is always in need of snacks and drinks for kids. Having snacks on hand is a kindness to the kids, parents and staff. But there is no budget for this.
On Sunday June 14, 2015 we will be collecting snacks one again to help out. Please bring snacks wrapped as individual servings: crackers, cookies, fruit strips, toddler snacks, juice boxes, etc. DCF needs to be able to store any snacks without refrigeration. There is no budget for that either.
Thank you for helping with our PINS partnership with DCF.

Youth Group!
All Bethany Youth in grades 6-12 are invited to a cook-out at Amy's house on Sunday, June 7th from 6 - 8 PM– and maybe some kickball or ultimate frisbee as well! Please bring a bag of chips or a beverage with you to share. Hamburgers, hot dogs, and dessert (could it be Ben and Jerry's ice cream?) will be provided.Come for the fun!
The end of our Choir
And this is how it ends on Thursday June 4th, The choir will enjoy a pot luck dinner at 410 Camp St Barre 6:30PM. The choir will not meet on Thursdays until Sept.
EVERYONE is invite to join our summer choir, rehearsals each Sunday at 9:15 AM in the front of the sanctuary. Join us when ever the spirit moves you to do so!
On Sunday May 31 Bethany Church said good-bye to Rev. Mark as our minister. Check the KIOSK for pictures and comments.
As a good-bye to us, Mark wants to say Thank you. Love you all and God. Maybe God a little more, but hey. It has been a grand thing for these 13 years. When I can stop reacting like a minister, I will be back to Bethany to worship. But in all these things please know and trust I leave with some hesitancy because it has been good. And if I seem to joke a lot about it, remember that clowns paint their faces with smiles or frowns for a reason. Also, I can not say what I want to well enough or briefly enough and confess to being humbled* by the task of trying.
*Okay. Actually I have been frustrated. Which after reflection leads to humbling.

Pakistan completed a 5-0 series rout after posting a daunting 329/9, their highest total against Bangla, and skittling the visitors for 179 in 40.5 overs.
Butt's 136, his second hundred in the series, gave him the record for most runs (451) scored by a Pakistani in a bilateral series and by any one-day international batsman in a five-match series.
He comfortably surpassed the previous best of 405 by compatriot Mohammad Yousuf in a five-match series against Zimbabwe in 2003.
Pakistan has won 11 ODIs in as many games with 10 coming against Bangladesh and Zimbabwe.
Bangladesh's batsmen were undone by the new-ball on Saturday.
Mohammad Asif took three quick wickets, including two in successive balls in his third over, to reduce Bangladesh to 23 for four.
Captain Mohammad Ashraful made his highest score of the series (30) before his soft dismissal in the 14th over opened the floodgates again.
Earlier, Butt again put Bangladesh's bowlers to the sword, making his sixth one-day hundred from 100 balls with nine fours and one six.
He and Younis Khan (69) set the platform for the record total by putting on 179 from 178 balls for the second wicket after Kamran Akmal (10) fell to Mortaza, who finished with four for 65.

This is a video review of Flow on the Playstation 3 by That Game Company.
My New series of Lets Play videos is up on my youtube channel. This was the first video i made and it's htemed on Limbo for the PS3. Everybody has to start somewhere right, I've come to the IGN community to help me get this started. Thanks, any likes or subscriptions will be greatfully recieved.
Playstation Plus is one of the best things about the Sony console. Yes you have to pay a subscription fee like the Microsoft crew, but unlike Microsoft you are awarded with a heap of free goods.
The free goods included in the subscription fee are:
- Several free Playstation 3 games.
- Several free Playstation Vita games.
- Discounts on games over both consoles.
- Discounted/free avatars and themes for your console.
And the best thing about this is that for every month you subscribe the whole list of discounted and free items change and supply you with a whole new list of available items. So you are looking at around 100 PS3 games a year for £40 (annual subscription fee for the UK). Can Microsoft compete? Well the could but the don't, and that's coming from a man who has been on their side for the past 6 years.
I made the jump to Playstation and so should you, if only to take advantage of the Playstation Plus.
For more information on the Playstation Plus, see the link below to IGN's Wiki on the subjest.
Welcome to Rook Island, we hope you enjoy your stay.
Far Cry 3, for those of you who don't know, is a first person shooter where you play as a 20 something American guy called Jason Brody. Jason goes on an adventure holiday with his friends to the very deceptive Rook Islands, and without giving to much away ends up going on an adventure quest to save these friends. Starting out as a bumbling rookie, Jason over time becomes a gun slinging badass with the use of upgradeable skills in the game and discovers his potential along the way.
There is no question that the landscape of the Rook Islands is beautiful and one of the best of it's kind on offer from 2012. With high mountaintops, deep seas and seemingly endless paradise to; shoot, walk, explode, swim, drive and fly through. The game is set on 2 main islands however there are additional islands for the multiplayer experience. (be warned, the multiplayer is the downfall point of the game, if you want a shoot out I advise you to play COD, leave the multiplayer in this game and just enjoy it as a single player.) Everything about the islands scream paradise and there are several side quests and collectable items to keep you coming back if you want to for hours after the end credits.
Jason Brody as the main character goes through several phases of competence throughout the game culminating in becoming a badass that can double kill an enemy from underwater to strapping bombs on monkeys (DLC). However, what makes this game so rich is the excellent voice acting and personalities of all the characters in the game. The 'Dark side' characters especially put in a top performance for example Vaas, one of the main villains of the piece, has to be one of the coolest characters of 2012.
"Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?"
Vaas 2012
Missions and Quests:
I always find this section difficult to write about because of the need to reduce spoilers to a bare minimum, so be warned if you don't want to know anything about this section feel free to skip the next paragraph.
There are an abundance of things to do in this game, ranging from the main story where you will encounter some epic explosions, dynamic action and some of the most memorable lines in the franchise history. In fact, the level of epicenes you get in a quest often depends on how epic you want to make it, you can sniper from a distance to clear the many camps of villains in the game or just go in all guns blazing. Side quests involve unlocking the map (as you do on Assassins Creed) by climbing in this case radio towers, hunting animals, your regular side missions where you help villagers and collecting items. There are 3 items to collect in game; Memory cards, letters and relics. Your entire inventory is upgradeable from the size of your wallet to the paintjob on your Sniper, however customising Jason himself is not available, and that comes as a relief if I'm honest because you simply don't need to. The enemy camps in game can be taken over and then used as fast travel points, all you need to do is empty out all the enemies.
- Beautiful open world with stunning landscapes.
- Excellent characters with brilliant personalities.
- The game lasts as long as you want it, with the option to go for hours after the main story.
- Multiplayer is a waste of time unless you want to get 100% achievements, although you can get 85% without it.
Result: 9/10
Waiting to see the Microsoft Press Conference at E3 2012. Can't wait.

Lencarta Set of 4 Honeycombs for 7" Honeycomb Reflector
- Brand: Lencarta
- Stock Code: 4-HONEYCOMB
- Availability: In Stock
- £74.99
- Ex VAT: £62.49
A set of 4 honeycombs for use with our new *Honeycomb Reflector. This set includes one each 10o, 20o, 30o and 40o honeycombs
Honeycombs have two primary uses.
1. To deliver a small, soft-edged pool of light to add emphasis (for example to emphasize high cheekbones or to produce an irregular circle of light on the background
2. For use of a backlight that doesn't produce lens flare, except when pointing almost directly at the lens.
When used as a backlight, flare is usually avoided at an angle greater than than that of the honeycomb.
*These honeycombs will fit to ANY standard reflector designed to be used with honeycombs, provided that the reflector has a diameter of 7", so it can be used with Elinchrom, Bowens, Hensel, Balcar and other reflectors with a 7" external diameter. However, with many standard reflectors it is not possible to use a honeycomb with the modelling lamp fitted, due to the length of the modelling lamp.
When using our honeycombs with either our new SmartFlash or ElitePro/SuperFast Honeycomb Reflector, designed specifically for use with these honeycombs, the modelling lamp can be left in place if used carefully, and the special lip that is machined at the front of the honeycomb reflector will allow two honeycombs to be stacked together if required, and when honeycombs are stacked in this way they produce a much smaller circle of light and far greater resistance to lens flare.
Do not leave the modelling lamp switched on when using the 10o or 20o honeycombs.
Do not leave the modelling lamp switched on when using any two honeycombs stacked together.

Heat too hot for Pacers, reach fourth straight finals
The Miami Heat crushed the Indiana Pacers 117-92 to stay in the hunt for a third straight NBA title after a 5-2 series win secured them the Eastern Conference championship on Friday.
Miami, now in their fourth straight NBA Finals, will play either the San Antonio Spurs or the Oklahoma City Thunder for the championship. San Antonio lead the Western Conference final 3-2.
LeBron James and Chris Bosh top scored for Miami with 25 points each while Paul George had 29 points for the Pacers.
"I'm blessed. Very blessed. Very humbled," James said. "And we won't take this opportunity for granted. It's an unbelievable franchise, it's an unbelievable group."
After narrowly losing out in game five in Indiana on Wednesday, Miami knew they could ill-afford another slip-up and they dominated a Pacers team that in the end was no real match for them.
The Heat fans were also charged up by the antics of Pacers guard Lance Stephenson who has attempted to wind-up James throughout the series and drew attention – and some ridicule – by blowing into James' ear during game five.
If Stephenson thought that he could gain an advantage for his team by trying to get under the Heat's skin, his approach badly misfired – his mere presence on court ensuring the loudest support Miami have received this season.
"The group loves to compete and loves to compete at the highest level, and be pushed to new levels," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said.
Pacers coach Frank Vogel said: "It's bitterly disappointing to fall short of our goals. It's bitterly disappointing to lose to this team three years in a row.
"But we're competing against the Michael Jordan of our era, the Chicago Bulls of our era, and you have to tip your hats to them for the way they played this whole series."
Miami's now traditional slow start allowed Indiana to take an early 9-2 lead but that was the last time they were ahead all night as the Heat, producing unselfish and smart offence, took charge.
Miami led 24-13 at the end of the first quarter with 11 of those points coming from James.
If Stephenson was in danger of becoming a pantomime villain, flicking James in the face between plays, the boos from the crowd had more anger in them after he sent Norris Cole flying with a palm to the face, ruled a flagrant foul.
The score was 33-20 at that point with Stephenson's 11 points keeping Indiana just in touch but once again his approach had the unintended consequence of raising Miami to another level.
The Heat ended the half 60-34 up with 15 points for James on 6-of-8 shooting and Bosh with 13 points – also on 6-of-8 shooting – while Stephenson had not added a single point to his tally.
The second half was purely about Miami managing their lead and they did so with little trouble as Indiana's challenge fizzled out.
Once again Miami had found another gear when they really needed it but they know they will face a much sterner test from their Western Conference opponents in the final.

Pet Sitter in Columbus
I'm a junior in high school and I am interested in pet sitting. I've pet-sat for my neighbors in the past and my mom is on the board of the local animal facility "PAWS" so I've had plenty of experience around animals and I am comfortable being around lots of animals. I also ran my own Dog Walking company in past years, walking neighborhood dogs around the park, so I am open to walking dogs as well. I am available to pet sit any day of the week.

Businesses will be able to recycle their used printer cartridges and refill their inks and toners thanks to a new franchise launched by a former golf professional which has captured that niche of the market. Chris Marshall, who was previously the assistant pro at the Mid-Ocean Club, and manager Jarryd Dillas held the grand opening of the Bermuda branch of Cartridge World yesterday, with the company's global CEO flying in to mark the event.And now they are hoping to help firms save money and do their bit for the environment through the use of the new service which covers just about every model of printer from HP, Dell and Lexmark to Brother, Canon and Xerox and between 100 to 150 different types of ink, as well as carrying out rigorous retesting work on the 30 test printers in store.
Mr. Marshall, who also has a background in retail and inventory management, was introduced to the concept of Cartridge World by his father, who came across it on his travels in the US a year ago, tried it for himself and was thoroughly impressed with the results.
Having done his own research into the company, Mr. Marshall went up to Boston the following month to check out some of the stores and along with Mr. Dillas attended training courses at the firm's North American headquarters in Emeryville, California, learning all about the products and ink and toner manufacturing.They found a premises opposite the TCD in the summer and agreed to lease the space from landlords D&J Construction, opening the store in November, prior to the official launch this week.
About 80 percent of the store's trade comes from small businesses, re/insurance companies, law firms, doctors surgeries and even schools, while the other 20 percent is retail from walk-in business, mainly built up through advertising, cold-calling and by word of mouth."We have given out products for people to try and we stand fully behind our products as far as the quality is concerned," said Mr. Marshall.
"The four things that Cartridge World consistently offers across all its stores is quality, environmentally-friendly, cost savings for businesses and individuals and top customer service."
Mr. Dillas, who worked together with Mr. Marshall at the Mid-Ocean Club, said the real beauty of the business was being able to provide customers with an alternative to just buying a new printer cartridge, ink or toner when their existing one can be repaired, refilled or the parts replaced.
Having graduated from the University of Rhode Island in May 2009, he was keen to get involved with a new business from the start at a ground level and play a his part of its development and expansion."People are a little hesitant to use it initially, but there a lot of technology and research has gone into what the business does," he said."It is an interesting concept and it is the way people are going with technology, as well as being good to go green."Customers can order or bring in their cartridges, inks or toners to be repaired or refilled and will receive a replacement if it is in stock, while the original part is serviced, so there is no waiting time involved. Typically inks can be refilled four to six times and toners eight to 10 times.
Bermuda is the 62nd and latest country where Cartridge World has set up, with 1,800 stores worldwide, including 850 in the US alone, and the store, which is the company's sole distributor on the Island, employs three staff.The company, which started in Australia 20 years ago, also sends out regular product and market updates to its various branches and send out technicians into the field to make sure everything is kept up to standard.The store is open from Monday to Friday between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

"They've got a very good team," said Wheeler Head Coach Doug Lipscomb. "They play well together. We were fortunate to get out of here with a win tonight. I'm very proud of the way our team played and I hope we can continue to make progress."
Wheeler Head Coach Doug Lipscomb
J.J. Hickson had 31 points and 7 rebounds to lead Wheeler to a 64-56 win over Milton Saturday night. The 6-9, 220-pound North Carolina State signee proved to be more than just a post player by knocking down back-to-back three pointers to start the game.
"I think he had 31 points or something like that," said Milton Head Coach Dave Burnett. "I don't know how many blocks or rebounds, but he had a huge night. We really didn't have the answer for him. We tried to give Conner some help. Conner is giving up about three inches and 20-40 pounds. He did a good job, but we've got to do a better job from a team perspective next time."
Wheeler improves to (12-3, 4-0) on the season while Milton drops to (11-2, 4-0). However, despite the loss, the Eagles proved that they could play with the top ranked teams in the state.
"Yeah, Our kids think that we can play with them," said Coach Burnett. "We believed we could coming in here. I think maybe more so now since we played them such a tough game."
"We felt like we gave a great effort tonight. We really had a chance to win the basketball game. We had a couple of crucial turnovers there in the fourth quarter. You can't do that against a team like them. They've got some great players on that team and it only makes it tougher."
Milton Head Coach Dave Burnett
Furman commit, Connor Nolte continued to impress on Saturday, pouring in 32 points and 9 rebounds. He made his presence known as one of the Peach State's most dangerous outside shooters.
"Conner is a fantastic player," said Coach Lipscomb. "He's been a fantastic player for them all four years. He's going to definitely blossom on the next level. I can't way to see him play on the next level. I think he's the heart and soul of Milton. He's a very polite young man and well mannered. That's a sign of his parents doing a very good job with him as well."

Whitney S.wrote a review of Smith Phenom Spherical Goggles on March 29, 2007
Kept my head from splitting in two
I used to never wear my helmet because my goggles were not comfortable to wear with it. I tried on some friends Phenoms and decided to buy some for myself. I started wearing my helmet again because the Phenoms were so comfortable and never fogged up. Two days after I bought the goggles, I ran into a tree and cracked my helmet completely in half. The goggles broke in the collision with the tree, but Smith was awesome and replaced them for me at no cost! These are all around great goggles to wear with or without a helmet, and Smith is an awesome company with great customer service!

Waves on Earth were a good source of energy. Harnessing wave energy, however, was difficult.
(Note: The background section of this page uses most of the same words as the tidal power page of Terra Futura to save time.)
The waterwheel was invented in ancient Greece. It was used for irrigation and as a power source. The technology spread quickly. Even during the Middle Ages, the waterwheel was very important. As the Industrial Revolution began, the waterwheel started to be used to power factories. As time went on, the waterwheel was replaced with the water turbine. The water turbine became one of the main components of the hydroelectric dam.
The first use of dams for hydroelectricity was in 1882. The water went into the dam and turned a water turbine which, in turn, turned a generator. This created electricity. As dams got larger like Hoover Dam, they started being used for flood control, irrigation, and even navigation. Authorities such as the Tennessee Valley Authority were created to build dams during the Great Depression. Dams continued to be used into the 21st century. By the 2020s, hydroelectric dams were even being used as arcologies with all the dam's non-support structure used as living and arcology space. Meanwhile, a new source power was being used: Tidal Power.
Tidal generators were in limited use in some areas. They only worked for 10 hours a day and only the tide came in and out. One concept for attaining cheap tidal power was the surface tidal barrage. There were huge environmental problems caused by possibly placing a dam like this on the mouth of a river. This problem was overcome in some cases by a circular tidal barrage. It was like a coral reef very close to a delta, but just off-shore. Thus, they would not interfere with the environment. A more common solution was the tidal turbine. Tidal turbines were like upside down wind turbines. They were also very similar to water turbines used in dams. The blades were smaller than those of a wind turbine due to the density of water. In the 2010s, they worked well economically at 4-5 knots. In the 2020s, they would go faster. At the same time, a new source of water power had come: Wave Power.
Tech Level: 10
Getting power from the waves was difficult. This did not stop people from trying. Wavegen, Inc. in Scotland developed the Oscillating Water Column Generator. The rising and falling water pushed air in and out. This spun counteracting turbines and, in turn, generated electricity. There was one problem. It was not so much the large clusters. The generators were directly on the shoreline. This was controversial because OWC generators were noisy and messed up the beach. The solution was the Wave Pitch Generator. Segmented tubes undulated up and down. Hydraulic fluid inside the tubes turned turbines that generated electricity. This technology was first deployed offshore of Portugal in 2006. It did not have to be on the shoreline. This helped energy bills significantly.

General DarkhartEdit
General Darkhart is an undead raider permanent boss leading the undead in Los Pulgas, Padres Del Fuego. He is one of the four generals the player must overcome for the taboo doll quest. He is the hardest of the four generals and he has been known to drop The Lost Sword of El Patron from time to time.
- Darkhart will always respawn at the same spot in Los Pulgas.
- Before padres was remade, he was found at a cabin in Los Pulgas, surrounded by minions, while the other skeletons fought off the navy.
- Darkhart's weakness is ranged weapons (guns, throwing knives and staff). If a pirate stands far enough back (at the blacksmith or gunsmith), he will only respond with throwing daggers. However, if he is attacked with a melee weapon (sword, dagger) or a voodoo doll, he will pursue his attacker.
- Darkhart is like other Undead Raiders and suffers from a glitch where he sometimes pulls out his sword and does not attack at all. This glitch can be purposely activated, it is great for leveling grenade.
- Fighting him with a crew or a healer will also make it easier and can increase the frequency of larger chests.
- Rumors of Darkhart being the source of many rare items means a lot of pirates seek him out. You may find yourself having a lot of company when you locate him. Otherwise, you may have to change servers to get him all to yourself.
- The easiest way that is believed to kill Darkhart, even when going at him solo, is to use a gun with silver shot. This, unfortunately, is limited to higher leveled pirates.

About MeI have been modelling since 2012 and I have vast experience through working with photographers to build their portfolios, websites and brands, from this I developed my skills and a love for the art. Ideally I am looking for opportunities in my local area but for the right shoot I would travel further. I have done catalogue work for Blazewear, Bliss and Raleigh. I have also done promo work for several gyms including working at the NEC during Body Power Expo 2012.
I would describe my style as 'girl next door' as I have quite an innocent look with a cheeky twinkle in my eyes, I have recently branched out to more edgy looks which I loved working with. I can be contacted for any variety of shoots, as I am keen on exploring all possible routes. If you are interested in working with me please get in touch with details including the theme and rate offered.
I am a fun and reliable model and any of the photographers I have worked with can be contacted for a reference if required.

Tim Tebow's tolerance for pain is legendary.
"I'm not a medical guy, but he's the toughest guy in college football, without question," offensive coordinator Steve Addazio said Monday.
Tebow played with with a broken leg in high school; with a broken hand in 2007; with a hyperextended knee and bum shoulder in 2008; with one of the worst respiratory illnesses known to mankind in 2009.
But this concussion is unlike any other injury Tebow has had. He can't toughen up and play through it.
"You can't fix the brain. You only get one," said ESPN analyst Merrill Hoge, whose NFL career ended in 1994 after suffering two major concussions.
The only remedy is rest and time. The generally-accepted waiting period, developed by Dr. Robert Cantu in the mid-1980s, is seven days without any post-concussion symptoms, in both periods of rest and maximum physical exertion.
So any talk this week about Tebow being ready for LSU on Oct. 10 is premature.
"It would not be unexpected that his symptoms clear up as the week goes along, and he'd be good to go next weekend," Cantu said. "But there's no way anybody today can make that statement."
Concussion experts stress that the seven days without symptoms must be consecutive. For Tebow to play against LSU, he must return to physical activity by Saturday at the latest, and cannot relapse.
"If he's asymptomatic for four days, and then he starts getting a headache, it starts over," Hoge said. "So if this happens next Tuesday, then he shouldn't play at all, no question."
Wednesday, September 30, 2009
Toughness has nothing to do with it.
We've tried to warn against having high expectations that Tebow will return in time for the LSU game. But all day we've heard on local and national radio that he's been cleared to play against LSU. But he hasn't. Ben Volin has more here.

I would think this is going to take some application specific logic, since Lucene doesn't inherently track these relations. You might be able to string something together using some of the regular expression/wildcard queries, but it is going to take some work on your part. Another approach might be to put some mechanisms in place during analysis that track this information. > > - Is there a way to get a list of all the terms in the index (or > maybe just the top n) ordered by descending frequency of usage?

So this is still blowing my mind. I'd pretty much wrote off any type of relationship with my baby father to be. I moved out almost 2 months ago and we've had very little communication, all of which was by email.
Well for the first time since I moved out, he called me. That was two days ago, and I was so stunned and baffled I didn't answer. Plus I didn't know if it was going to be a nice call or another I hate you type call. lol. Anyway, he left a message sweet as can be asking for a call back. I didn't return the call.
Well yesterday evening around the same time as before he calls again, so I decide to answer. I just play it casual because honestly I'm so sick of fighting that I really wasn't interested in starting anything. He was sweet as can be the whole time and we ended the conversation him saying he'd call me back later.
This morning I got an email asking me out Friday night to go watch a movie and "talk about things." And I'm SHOCKED!! I mean, even when we were together he never asked me out. We never went on "dates." We just hung out with friends or stayed at home. Sometimes I would ask if we could go out but he never wanted to. He'd rather download the movie for free and have me cook dinner. So now I'm really surprised at him asking me to go out with him on a Friday night. Its also the first time he's actually wanted to talk about things.
I agreed to the outing tomorrow. But I'm wondering, do you think I'm stupid? Is this just another way for him to hurt me once again?
Ahh, the drama, the questions, the doubt, does it ever end?

text: Big news on the smartphone front is expected today from HTC, but early next year, we just might see the company's first move into the ever growing tablet market.Slashgear, quoting Digitimes, claims 'Taiwanese component makers' have revealed initial details of the tablet, which is said to be running the so-far-unseen Android 3.0 Gingerbread and will launch in the first quarter of 2011. That could mean a CES unveiling or at least, soon after.Sadly, those same sources haven't given any details away about the inner workings or indeed the size of the device, aside from built-in 3G so it can work with and for the phone networks.No word as yet from HTC, although something might come out of today's HTC launch event. Failing that, look out for those spy shots in the run up to any launch. They always appear.

Interested in St Andrews?
We'll send you updates with the latest deals, reviews and articles for St Andrews each week.
Topics include Transportation, United Kingdom: For Foreign Visitors & more!
Because St Andrews is so small, the sports and activities that keep most of its visitors busy are not necessarily confined to the town. The Kingdom of Fife, most of which is easily accessible in a day's drive, offers loads of great things to do. But as it turns out, many visitors to this town come for one reason alone, golf.
One of Scotland's favorite pastimes is the game of golf, and St Andrews has some world-class courses to offer its visitors. The
St. Andrews Links Website is a great resource for the golf enthusiast. Immediately upon exploring this site, it becomes obvious that golf is not just a game in this town; it is a way of life. Golf legends like Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus have competed numerous times at the professional events that are held on the
Old Course
, the most famous of the town's courses. Not only is the Old Course the most famous in the town of St Andrews, but it is the oldest course in the world, and Tiger Woods claims it as his favorite. There are six
Link's Courses
, all of which are open to the public.
Highland Games, a unique sporting competition in Scotland, hold events in the Kingdom of Fife. It is worth checking the schedule in their website in case events are being held during your visit.
