Bavarian Mint Coffee - Adult Drink
Recipe by Sooz Cooks
I first had this drink at a ski lodge in Breckenridge Colorado and I was hooked! This drink is a real warmer and delicious too! Normally I am not crazy about mint but Peppermint Schnapps is surely an exception!
Top Review by MarthaStewartWanabe
Oh, what a deliciously smooth and beautiful drink! I have always enjoyed Kahlua and Peppermint Schnapps separately but have never combined them. Who would have thought?! Thank you for a yummy, tummy-warming, soothing and smooth coffee drink! (Made for SUMMER COMFORT CAFE 2009)
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1⁄2 ounce peppermint schnapps
- 1 ounce Kahlua
- 6 ounces hot black coffee
- 1 teaspoon sugar (optional if you don't like your coffee really sweet like I do!)
- whipped cream (I like a lot!)
- chocolate shavings
Directions See How It's Made
- Add Peppermint Schnapps, Kahlua, and coffee to a large mug.
- Stir in sugar - if desired.
- Place mug in microwave oven and heat for 20 seconds or until desired warmth is achieved.

Photograph or diagram how the wires connect to the switches before taking out the old assembly. I could have salvaged switches from the old assembly by pulling out the white pins (and avoided buying the new switch kit). There's only one way the pieces go back together, so the wire connections are the only point that required special care and attention.

Were these instructions helpful?
I disasembled the inner door and replaced the door switches with new ones.
I removed inner face of door, cut wires leading to door switches, and then installed the new door switches and wire harness.
I turned off the circuit. I removed the interior side of the door and then the plastic covering over the electrical wires and switches (I counterbalanced the door with a couple of half gallon juice containers). I removed the wires attached to the switch on the door handle and the door handle itself. The handle and switch parts disassembled and I replaced the switches (part of kit). I cut off the singed wire and the other three beyond the damaged portion and stripped the wires and connected the extensions (part of kit). I attached the new wires to the switches and closed up the interior door. Lastly, I turned the circuit breaker back on. All was well!

Technology is creating products and services for a parallel economy, a shared economy, says Vishnu Mohan, CEO, Havas Media Group, Asia Pacific. In a conversation with exchange4media, Mohan welcomed the trend of 'collective, collaborative and social consumption,' saying even applications are fuelling a collaborative economy, which is great for society.
However, Mohan also sounded wary of the obsession with sharing that is taking away from the experience of the product or service. "I am worried about whether people are consuming products and services for the enjoyment of the product or services, or because of this ability to be shared with others," he said, citing examples of apps that monitor calories and phones with advanced cameras that are popular simply because they enable the user to share something 'cool.'
"People are willing to let go of quality in a quest for sharing. Which means, in a marketing organisation where they start to think of products and services, they don't just have to think about whether or not I have to please the customer… but whether what I am delivering is it got an instant share-ability appeal," he said.

Undergrad Research Assistants
You can also find another film produced by Joshua See from Royal Ontario museum here.
This is the most remote and toughest of all the expeditions but probably the one with the best sightings of forest based animals. There are limited spaces on the Guyana expeditions so these have been packaged into a 4 week and 2 week expedition.
Want to get involved or know more? Submit an Expression of Interest!
Expedition options
Expedition 1
20 June – 17 July
Expedition length: 4 weeks
This project has a waiting list
This expedition has a fixed 4-week itinerary that contains an introductory 3 day course on Jungle Training and Guiana Shield Forest Ecology (GU001). After these first 3 days the teams will move to one of the forest camps where they will be based for the next 6 days. During the course of the expedition, the teams will complete 6 days of biodiversity surveys at camps in each of following regions of the forest: wilderness or sustainable use area that is not being exploited, reduced impact logging area and forest areas on the savannah habitat (GU002). During the four weeks the group will have the opportunity to complete a river based mobile survey through the heart of the forests and living in temporary camps for 3 days (GU003). Working on this expedition will give volunteers the opportunity to experience the full range of surveys and contribute to an annual biodiversity monitoring programme of key forest taxa, as well as see a wide range of Guiana Shield wildlife.
Expedition 2
18 – 31 July
Expedition length: 2 weeks
There is limited space available on this project
This expedition is designed for those without the time or funds available to complete the longer expedition, and will give you a taste of all of the research activities. You will start with 3 days based at the Iwokrama research centre completing the Guiana Shield forest ecology course (GU001).
You then move to a field camp for a week and will be working with the biodiversity research teams GU002. For the final 3 days you will be completing the boat based surveys on the Burro Burro river GU003.
Details of Projects and Options
GU001 Jungle Training and Guiana Shield Forest Ecology course
The course is designed to prepare students for living and working in the forest and how to be of practical use in the surveys. Skills in learning how to live safely and healthily in the tropical forest in hammock based camps will be gained. There are also a series of lectures on the ecology of the forests in which you will be working,
the survey techniques used and some of the main species you will encounter.
GU002 Iwokrama Forest Biodiversity Survey
These surveys are being completed at a series of camps across the Iwokrama and Surama forests and you will be able to rotate between the different projects available or to specialise in one of more of them.
- Bird surveys: Mist nets will be set to collect data on the understorey birds. All birds captured are measured and data taken on moult and breeding condition to determine breeding cycles. In addition point count surveys are completed at a series of sites and analysis completed on soundscape recordings from a series of digital sound recorders.
- Herpetofauna surveys: Standard search scan transects are completed for herpetofauna and in the evenings spotlighting and soundscape analysis used to
determine the amphibian communities.
- Dung beetle surveys: Baited pit fall traps are used to determine dung beetle communities.
- Large mammal surveys: Transects will be walked, distance sampling together with patch occupancy analysis is used to estimate large mammal
community structure. Camera traps will also be set along the same transects and data analysed for additional species not recorded on transects and from catch effort analysis to determine whether populations are increasing or declining. Species sampled can include big cats (such as jaguar and puma) and herbivores such as tapirs, deer and agouti).
- Bat surveys: Mist net surveys are run for standard periods of time in the evening and used to quantify the bat communities. In addition soundscape recordings are completed to assess the bat species flying too high for the mist nets.
- Forest structure and dynamics surveys: Data on forest structure and carbon levels are also gathered from a series of 20m x 20m plots at each of the sites.
This 3 day survey is based on small boats with the entire team travelling around the Burro Burro river and staying at river camps. The purpose of this survey is to gather standardised data on the giant river otters, caiman, anaconda, water birds and other riverine indicator species.

New Car Experience
" My wife stopped in to look at a replacement fo our 2011 Vibe and was introduced to Jeff Williamson. He took her seriously and never asked to speak with me. That's a five star response to me. He explained the featuresof a 2017 Rav4 at length and took her on a demo ride. she came home, described her experience with Jeff and we drove out together o close the purchase. Jeff offered me a ride but I saw no reason to do that since I knew we were going to make the purchase. The usual paper work time was dealt with very efficiently and we are very happy with the car. "
Excellent Experience
" Recently Dealt with Nick on a personal purchase of a Toyota 4 Runner and the purchase of 3 Toyota Prius's for our Company......Nick Roberto went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. All transactions went smoothly with unbeatable pricing on all of the vehicles. Highly recommend "Nick" and we look forward to working with him again on our next purchase............................ "
Very satisfied customer
" We are very satisfied with our purchase. We went in feeling a little pessimistic about being able to purchase. Tim went above and beyond for us to make it happen that we leave with the vehicle that we wanted. We are extremely greatfull to him and all others that helped us in being able to purchase our Nissan Frontier. We will definitely be back someday and we will definately recommend Colonial to anybody we know looking for a new automobile. Thanks so much for everything. Dan & Connie Berry "
" I dealt with Nick Roberto over the phone for a number of days. I live in Pittsburgh and was interested in a used vehicle that Colonial had. The vehicle I wanted was also located at Wright Nissan, two miles from where I live. Although the vehicle Colonial had had about 15,000 mores miles on it, Wright was selling theirs for $4000 more and giving me $3000 less for my trade-in, so it was definitely worth a ride to Indiana, PA to check this deal out. I met Nick in person, and he was very knowledgeable and friendly. We ultimately made the deal, and I drove off with an expertly washed and detailed Nissan that contained a half a tank of fuel. "
Good Experience
" I will begin by saying my husband and I are over 70. Our dealings with computers is minimal, at best. Gil McNie took us under his wing and helped us along every step of the way. Not only with the buying process, but with understand the working of all the safety features and other features available to us on our purchase. There was never any high pressure and all our expectations were met. Gil let us know he was available to answer any questions or help out in any way one we had the car in our possession. I did call him (remember, I am old!) and he was knowledgable, polite, and helpful. This is the first Toyota we have purchased. We were told by several friends that this dealership is the best around and we would agree. If I were buying a car as a single woman, I would feel very comfortable and confident buying a car here. As seniors with many questions, we were very impressed that we were never rushed by Gilbert...and his offer for follow-up help even after the sale was made was appreciated. We felt as if our wants and needs were met and the entire staff seems organized and prepared. And to top it off..we love our new Toyota Highlander! "
Pleasure to work with
" Jason was a pleasure to work with. Extremely friendly and reasonable to work with. Cut directly to the chase. No games - buy the best brand in America today! "
" Colton was our sales rep. He was very friendly and not pushy. My husband and I came in to look at a specific vehicle and decided to purchase that vehicle the same night. Everyone was helpful in the process and made it easy. We did not feel pressured to buy something and feel we got a fair price for the vehicle we bought. Thank you to everyone who made it happen- especially Colton. He was great! Thanks again, we love our new vehicle! "
Incredibly Helpful
" Everyone I dealt with at Colonial Toyota was incredibly helpful. They were very knowledgeable, always polite and professional. I dreaded the process of buying a car, but they made it a pleasant experience. I'm sorry I never met any of them personally, but will definitely will recommend each of them and Colonial Toyota to everyone I know. Specifically, I am grateful to CJ Spadafora, Tim Neal, "Fred" in financing, and Marty. Thank you all very much and best wishes always. "
Great People
" I was greeted by the receptionist and from there it was all uphill. Great people to deal with, honest answers, friendly, good pricing. Marty the manager and Tim in sales along with Fred in financials were the persons I had the pleasure of dealing with. Everything was organized and smooth flowing when I went in to take delivery of my truck. I don't have and "cons" to say about the dealership. "
Straight Forward
" Straight forward dealership. Pleasant and helpful sales staff. Service department is helpful when needed. Overall best experiences at colonial Toyota compared to any other Toyota dealers. "
Highest rating
" Colonial Toyota deserves the highest rating possible for all they did for us! It was an easy transaction for us especially since we live over an hour from this dealership. From the moment I looked on the website and got my first communication from our salesman, Tim, we knew buying our new Tacoma would be here. Tim answered a lot of questions we had before we ever went to the dealership, helping us to figure out exactly what we wanted. Once options were decided our new truck was on the way! "
Wonderful experience
" My experience with Colonial Toyota was wonderful. We dealt with Tim Neal who was eager to help, explain details about the vehicles, explain to multiple people, and never rushed us to make a decision. Tim was very helpful with explaining everything about the new car we purchased. Tim was also very patient when dealing with all the questions we had to ask. "
Tim was wonderful
" I bought my other 2 Toyotas from Greensburg Toyota, I emailed the man I usually dealt with, he told me he'd get right on it and call me. Waited 3 weeks, never heard back. Then went to have my Rav serviced at Laurel Toyota, was out looking at cars, not one person asked if I wanted help. Salesmen walked past and never even acknowledged me. Went on-line to Colonial Toyota. Was contacted almost immediately from Tim Neal. He was wonderful! "
" I have been getting my car serviced at Colonial Toyota for years and have always been pleased with the service and friendly people there. Justin was very helpful in getting me acquainted with my new car. I will continue to do service with Colonial Toyota thanks so much! "
No Hassle
" This is the third be vehicle we have bought at Colonial Toyota. Jason was our salesman this time. He made the purchase fast, easy and no hassle! My husband and I don't have a lot of free time so for him to make this experience hassle free was super important to us!! We love our 4 runner and would highly recommend Jason as a salesman at Colonial!! Thank you!!! "
Couteous & Friendly
" Courteous and Friendly. Have purchased last 3 vehicles from them, if Jeff doesn't know the answer he will find it for you, does not rush you on decisions, explains everything so there are no surprises and goes over the vehicle with you when you pick it up. Fred explained all paperwork and went very smooth. "
Very relaxed
" From the moment I talked to the receptionist to making my final decision to purchase my Toyota, with the help of Jason and Marty, my experience was very relaxed. Jason was thorough in his explanation of the features and warranty on the vehicle. He was also very patient and unhurried with my questions. Marty was able to offer a deal that was both acceptable and a little better than I was expecting. At a time when customer service appears to be non existent in many settings, it is refreshing "
no pressure
" My last three cars have been purchased at Toyota Colonial in Indiana, PA. Although they are a Toyota dealer, they do not pressure you into buying a Toyota. They have great used cars and will do their best to help you find a car/suv that you like and is within your budget. They don't look down their noses at you if you can't afford a new car. No matter what choice you make, they treat you as if you just purchased the most expensive vehicle on their lot. They do not pressure you into "
very pleased with colonial
" My experience with Colonial has been for over 7 years.We dealt with Mike Derr first.He left for other opportunities and turned us on to Jason Vaughn and we couldn't be happier with the service we now get from Jason that we used to get from Mike. From sales to finance to management to service to ownership we find this dealership to be top rate! I think it's 7 or 8 cars we have purchased now (ours and our children) that pretty much tells you how pleased we are with this place. Jason is easy "
I never expected to buy a Toyota
" I never really expected to buy a Toyota and went to check-out Brand X. After I drove the ... I decided it wasn't for me-- Too big, didn't handle well, over-styled for a PU. This was in Pittsburgh where I live. I was visiting a friend in Indiana & just decided to visit Colonial one day & liked the product and the salesman. Several months later I wandered back in and Brian and I talked some more. I went to another dealer but the ease and efficiency of dealing at Colonial-the quality "

Kahaani 2 trailer: The viewers finally got an insight into the happenings of one of the most highly awaited movies of 2016, as the filmmakers of Kahaani 2 released its official trailer today. The 2 minute 34 seconds trailer turned out to be absolutely breathtaking, as it promises the viewers to witness Vidya Balan's tremendous acting prowess on the celluloid once again. The much talked about movie will hit the silver screens on December 2, 2016, and is expected to leave the viewers in awe with the depiction of its plotline.
The potency level of the trailer of Kahaani 2 escalates right from the beginning of it as it completely emphasises on the intensity witnessed on the character of Durga Rani Singh (Vidya Balan). Nevertheless, the trailer triggered quite a lot of speculations among the viewers as the initial part of it portrays Durga answering a mysterious phone call regarding her daughter Mini's kidnapping, and on the other hand, the second part depicts the relationship between Durga and her daughter where it is shown Mini jumping off from a terrace.
However, Arjun Rampal will be portraying the character of a cop, and he is witnessed investigating the mysterious case of Durga Rani Singh. And the most spine-chilling scenario from the trailer was when Arjun Rampal gets to know that Durga is a fugitive who is convicted of kidnapping as well as murdering.
Nevertheless, the Kahaani 2 trailer assures the viewers that the film will surpass their expectation levels by depicting the plotline of the movie with utmost perfection.
Kahaani was quite appreciated by the viewers as it kept them hooked on to the film throughout and now the viewers are expecting to witness the same amount of potency level in Kahaani 2.
Produced under the banner of Pen India Limited the Hindi thriller film is expected to do wonders at the box office as well. However, let's wait till December 2 to release our curiosity buds by watching the happenings of Kahaani 2 on the silver screens.
Check out the trailer of Kahaani 2 below

Appealing on medical grounds but I didn't mention this in original application - have I blown it?(20 Posts)
I think I have been REALLY stupid. When applying for our preferred secondary school we had medical reasons for wanting this school (or rather social/emotional reasons, which I think count as medical?) Anyway, when we initially sent in our application I didn't mention the medical grounds on the form (someone advised me not to & I stupidly went along with that without checking). Although medical grounds isn't on the admission criteria for this school, they do say they will consider applications on these grounds.
So, fast-forward to now - we've been refused a place at this school and are appealing on medical grounds. But will the fact that I didn't mention this in the initial application have ruined my chances at the appeal? Could the panel say "well you should have said this earlier and it's too late now" ?
Am aghast at my stupidity
No it won't ruin your chances. The panel may question why it wasn't raised earlier but, if you were badly advised or if you expected to get an offer so didn't think to mention it, then the appeal panel will understand.
You are correct that social and emotional issues can make a case as much as medical ones but you also have to make sure you explain your child's needs and, more importantly, why only this school and no other can meet them or best meet them.
Having a social or medical issue alone isn't reason for getting a particular school place. There has to be a logical link between the child's needs and how the school is best placed to meet them.
If your case is based mainly on meeting your child's needs, some sort of professional evidence is also helpful eg a professional involved with your child who will support your view that this school is the best one for your child.
The panel may well ask why you didn't mention the social/emotional issues earlier, so you need to think about how you will respond to that. Even so, the panel has to consider all the evidence you put before it, so they can't simply dismiss your appeal because you didn't mention this when you first applied. As mentioned before on one of your other threads, I think, the panel has to weigh up the prejudice to your child in not attending the school against the prejudice to the school and the children already in it of admitting an extra pupil.
Thanks both of you, that is reassuring. Tiggy, I have a letter from a professional, so fingers crossed!
If only I had mentioned it earlier, it may not have come to this
Don't fret about it. The admissions criterion around social/medical need is strictly applied (at least it is in my LEA) so you might well have needed to take it before an appeal panel anyway.
If there's a moral here at all, it's don't listen to well-meaning friends who lack the specialised knowledge to advise.
PanelChair, the thing is that the person who gave me that advice works in admissions!! (albeit in a different county - friend of the family).
There isn't any point in contacting the admissions authority about this now, is there? Am wondering if they might re-consider the application with this new information or will I just have to wait until the appeals round anyway?
The admissions authority won't reconsider the original decision at this stage but it might push you up the waiting list. I have to say the description you've given of their position on medical grounds isn't very clear - no category but they will consider applications. There should be a clear description of what priority, if any, they will give on medical grounds.
Their admissions policy has "Any Other Applications as Criterion 4 and "In the case of exceptional medical circumstances the governors will consider other applications" as Criterion 5.
I see no prospect of them reconsidering the application because you relied on duff advice. If that advice had come from your LEA, things might be different.
Is it medical though, or is it social/ emotional? Do they attach the same weight to both?
I was led to understand that social reasons (it's a psychological thing) are medical reasons but I dunno...
I think most people would accept, simply on a common sense definition, that 'medical' encompassed mental health as well as physical health and so psychological well being would be included.
Not sure if social and emotional are necessarily medical. For example if you live outside the catchment area for your choice of primary and secondary school , but have been able to attend the primary due to lower numbers there, parents argue that their child, socially, needs to be with their friends at the secondary school, but that has no space and offers places strictly on catchment criteria . The child is split from friends. Parents often state "staying with friends" as a reason for appeal reason but it is social, not medical reason. Often medical refers to a particular specialism the school has, eg providing for hearing loss children, children with a speech problem. It is where a school is a best fit for the child's documented medical condition. You should appeal OP, but word your appeal in educational terms as much as medical ones.
The OP says it is psychological which would normally be accepted as medical.
"Staying with friends" is, as you say, not usually a good reason for appeal. However, if it can be shown that the child has a far greater need to stay with friends than other children, e.g. due to a psychological condition, that would potentially be grounds for a successful appeal. Indeed, that would potentially be successful regardless of whether the admission criteria include a category for medical needs.
Exactly, prh47bridge. There is a world of difference between having a general wish to stay with friends (which isn't the basis of a winning appeal) and having a psychological condition, confirmed by a health care professional, which means that the child needs to remain with friends (which might be).
That's exactly our situ, prh and PanelChair - DD has separation anxiety (confirmed by GP and counsellor) so has a far greater need to stay with friends than other children. Oh heck, I am probably outing myself here
My latest 'wide awake at 2am and obsessing about it' question is this. I can definitely prove that DD will suffer prejudice by not being admitted, that's cut and dried. But at this stage I don't know if I can prove that the school won't suffer if she is admitted. It may be that I'm able to later (am in the process of sorting all this out now) but if I can't, is there still a chance I could win? I'm unsure whether an appellant HAS to prove that there is no prejudice to the school to stand a chance of success at appeal. Would a panel be allowed to uphold an appeal at the balancing stage, even if there is evidence to say that the school will suffer?
You don't have to prove that the school won't suffer. You simply have to show that your daughter's needs outweigh any problems the school will face.
It certainly helps if you can show that they have been over PAN previously as that suggests they can go over PAN again. But it is possible to win an appeal without that.
Fabulous, thank you! I might as well just have "thank you prh" set as an automatic sig on my posts because that's how 99% of my posts end up at the moment
Parents often state "staying with friends" as a reason for appeal reason but it is social, not medical reason.
Most children want to stay with their friends - that is true. Some children however have diagnosed conditions related to anxiety that mean they will really suffer if separated from their friends. Or they may have something else that makes them very vulnerable and in greater need of peer support eg the recent loss of a parent that means they really need to stay with friends who are suporting them and getting them through.
Parents can win an appeal by proving a child has a need that is best met by a particular school. It doesn't need doesn't to be a physical complaint or disability. It can be a social or emotional reason too as long as it is diagnosed or proven in some way (else of course all parents would say their child is anxious about going to school alone).
And as prh says, if the needs of the child are such that the panel agree the child will suffer by not getting a place, this can outweigh the school's case and they can win at appeal even if the school can also prove some disadvantage of having to take one more child. The panel know that both sides have (probably) good reasons for wanting a place / not wanting to admit more children but they then decide who will be most harmed by the case going against them and then that side should win.

|[jira] Commented: (DIRSERVER-586) Reliable hang of DS during query
|Thu, 03 Aug 2006 10:49:15 GMT
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-586?page=comments#action_12425489 ] Jörg Henne commented on DIRSERVER-586: -------------------------------------- Thanks for your continued feedback, Emmanuel! I'll answer your points one-by-one: 1) Even other threads within my test case can continue their work undisturbed. Connections from other sources are also not problem at all. The symptom is simply that some connections seem to just go dead. To give you an idea of how many are affected: I usually run the tes with 10 threads, each executing about 200 interactions with the server (100 object creations, 100 deletions). Of those 10 threads usually about 1-3 run into the hang. As stated earlier: when a connection runs into the hung state, this causes the corresponding channel to not be returned from Selector.select() calls. My earlier observation, that the channel is completely lost from the selector's channel list was bunk, btw. It is still there, but simply not selected. This may very well be a problem with the runtime libraries or even the LDAP client, BTW. 2) Good idea, but still: hangs as before. 3) JRockit: hey, I've wanted to try this for a long time. Now it's time to do so. Test 1: Server on JRockit, client (unit test) on SUN: still hangs. Test 2: Server on JRockit, client on JRockit: no hang. What was that? Several tries: IT! DOESN'T! HANG! wow. Test 3: Server in SUN, client on JRockit: still not hang. Interesting. IBM JVM: Test 1: server on SUN client on IBM: hang! Test 2: server on IBM, client on IBM: hang! Observation on the side: the test runs 3-4 times slower on IBM and SUN JVMs (even though some Threads don't even make it to the end due to a hang!) compared to JRockit. The effect on the server side seems to be far less pronounced, which might me due to the log output in the client side. While we're at it, some completely unscientific benchmarks. The client is always on JRockit (since it is the only way the client always makes it to the end, it doesn't make sense to compare using other JVMs for the client) and run multiple times to allow for some JIT burn-in: - SUN 1.5.0_07: ~5000ms per test run. - IBM 1.5: ~5700ms - JRockit: ~4000ms (OMG!) 4) The thread dump is not a problem. I have both client and server running under full debugger control and can plainly see what all the threads are doing. A TCP capture would be very, very interesting, but I don't know how I can capture traffic which doesn't actually cross a physical network interface. 5) Unfortunately, I don't have any chickens at hand (lucky them!), but to draw some conclusion: one possible explanation would be that the problems are caused by the different IO libraries used by the different JVMs (see thread dumps below). The cause could also be a problem on the server side which is triggered by certain timing differences between the client JVMs. However, I think the former seems more likely to me, because the hangs don't seem to be influenced by the client timing itself. In fact, I first got the hangs using my OLM (object to LDAP mapping) framework which surely has very, very different timing characteristics. Here's a stack dump of a JRockit reader thread: Thread [Thread-4] (Suspended) owns: java.io.BufferedInputStream (id=51) jrockit.net.SocketNativeIO.readBytesPinned(int, byte[], int, int, int) line: not available [native method] jrockit.net.SocketNativeIO.socketRead(java.io.FileDescriptor, byte[], int, int, int) line: not available java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(java.io.FileDescriptor, byte[], int, int, int) line: not available java.net.SocketInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 129 java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill() line: 218 java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(byte[], int, int) line: 256 java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 313 com.sun.jndi.ldap.Connection.run() line: 784 java.lang.Thread.run() line: not available This is from the IBM JVM: Thread [Thread-17] (Suspended) owns: java.io.BufferedInputStream (id=45) java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(java.io.FileDescriptor, byte[], int, int, int) line: not available [native method] java.net.SocketInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 155 java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill() line: 229 java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(byte[], int, int) line: 267 java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 324 com.sun.jndi.ldap.Connection.run() line: 814 java.lang.Thread.run() line: 788 And this is, finally, the SUN JVM: Thread [Thread-31] (Suspended) owns: java.io.BufferedInputStream (id=60) java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(java.io.FileDescriptor, byte[], int, int, int) line: not available [native method] java.net.SocketInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 129 java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill() line: 218 java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(byte[], int, int) line: 256 java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(byte[], int, int) line: 313 com.sun.jndi.ldap.Connection.run() line: 784 java.lang.Thread.run() line: 595 I'm not saying that this specific class is the culprit - it is rather the write-side of the communication which is the problem, but the stack dumps indicate that JRockit has very different socket-IO code compared to SUN/IBM.

Canceled Wedding Becomes Unforgettable Bash for the Homeless
Subscribe to TheFW on
What should've been the happiest day in the life of one woman turned out to be a memorable one for those less fortunate.
After a groom-to-be called off his wedding in Sacramento at the city's hoity-toity Citizen Hotel about a week before the big day, the bride-to-be's family elected to hold the reception — except, they invited the city's homeless to attend.
Cancelled wedding leads to meal for homeless http://t.co/yFUjHAgZnF pic.twitter.com/fz8sjqaHVr

It made sense, since deposits for the $35,000 bash had already been paid.
Kari Duane, the mother of the jilted bride, managed to maintain a level head about the whole matter:
Even though my husband and I were feeling very sad for our daughter, it was heartwarming to see so many people be there and enjoy a meal."
About 120 people were invited to the wedding, so plenty of food was available for the homeless to enjoy.
They didn't only enjoy the meal, though — they appreciated it, too. Erika Craycraft, who showed up with her husband and five kids, said, "To lose out on something so important to yourself and then give it to someone else is really giving, really kind."
The bride, still nursing plenty of heartache, elected not to attend the festivities. She'll have some time to heal the wounds, though. She's going on what would've been her honeymoon to Belize with her mother.

The two new giant compressors that started up on the Troll A platform this month will help increase gas recovery by 83 billion cubic metres. The occasion attracted a platform visit from EEA and EU affairs minister Vidar Helgesen.
"Europe is in a transition phase with regard to both competitiveness and climate. Stable and competitive gas deliveries from the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS) play a key role along these two axes. Higher production and flexibility from the Troll field is therefore good news to both Norway and Europe," said Helgesen during his visit.
"This is a new strategic milestone for the Troll field. The compressors are an important investment to ensure sustainable, long-term production and activity on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS)," says Gunnar Nakken, newly-appointed senior vice president for the operations west cluster.
The compressors ensure a daily export capacity from the Troll field of 120 million standard cubic metres of gas, totalling 30 billion standard cubic metres of gas per year. This is equivalent to the consumption of 10 million households in Europe.
The compressors are an important measure to meet the Troll field's long-term production profile, currently extending to 2063. They are operated by land-based power from Kollsnes west of Bergen, ensuring zero emissions of carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides from the platform.
"This is an important climate contribution from Statoil," Nakken emphasises.
During the past 18 months Statoil has started up low-pressure compressors on Troll A, Kvitebjørn, Heidrun, Kristin, Åsgard and Gullfaks, the last two on the seabed. This increases the recovery rate by more than 1.2 billion barrels and extends the life of the installations. The project has extended the expected life of Troll A from 2045 to 2063.
These investments in existing fields give highly profitable barrels. The field recovery increase the compressors provide, 83 billion standard cubic metres of gas or 533 million barrels of oil equivalent, is more than the Aasta Hansteen and Valemon fields combined," says Nakken.

It's cliché but Danny Ings is that typical "new signing" a manager usually refers to when asked about a player returning to the first team picture after a long spell on the sideline for the reds.
The former Burnley man suffered a season ending injury when he ruptured knee ligaments mere days after Jürgen Klopp walked through the door; still fresh from scoring in his first derby against Everton at Goodison Park in a 1-1 draw which had resulted in the sacking of Brendan Rodgers.
Since then it has been a very long road to recovery but he marked his proper return to action last Friday with a good second half display against Tranmere which was capped off with a well taken strike to give Liverpool the 1-0 victory.
Things didn't go as smoothly though on Wednesday as the Englishman struggled up against the Fleetwood defenders whilst others players shined. He was very much on the peripheral of the game and when given the chance to open the scoring; his penalty was easily stopped by the Fleetwood goalkeeper.
It should be expected though. Ings hadn't played a game of football since October until Friday with the exception of a late cameo on the final day of last season against West Brom, so we shouldn't expect him to be anywhere near match fitness. It isn't just match fitness either because it is pre-season so general fitness is also being built up.
Klopp must use Ings effectively in pre-season to counteract this and try and get Ings as much game time as possible whilst he waits for Daniel Sturridge and Divock Origi to ease themselves back into the new season. The more Ings plays, the more he will gain that fitness and sharpness that he had in his game before the injury occurred.
Will he get his chance this season?
In regards to this season however things don't necessarily look so good for Ings in terms of playing time. Both Sturridge and Origi have had over half a season under Klopp's tutelage and he knows a lot more about them than Ings in match situations.
Origi was excellent under Klopp and but for injuries would have been an even bigger factor especially in the closing stages of the season. The Belgian got the nod in the big games under Klopp and it is expected that Klopp will continue to use him as much as possible.
Daniel Sturridge, on the other hand, is world class. Look no further than his goal in the Europa League final against Sevilla. He can be frustrating to watch at times as he can look disinterested but his instinct in front of goal is second to none and he will be looking forward to hopefully completing his first full season without major injury concerns for a long time as well as being the main striker for the Reds.
It has been reported recently that Klopp is happy with the attacking resources that he has at his disposal even with the increasing likelihood of sales for both Christian Benteke and Mario Balotelli. That would leave Liverpool with three strikers and for the reasons listed above Origi and Sturridge are ahead of Ings in that pecking order.
Outgoing loan possibilities linked with Ings during this window appear laughable when you consider the start he did actually make to his Liverpool career. After initially settling for a place on the bench to begin the season, injuries to Benteke and Sturridge gave Ings an opportunity: one that he grasped with both hands. As results and performances dipped under Rodgers, Ings was one of the only players to come out of that spell with any credit to his name.
He is a willing worker with a never say die attitude and that helped massively adhere him to the Anfield faithful was there for all to see and his pace, movement and power makes him a player that Klopp should enjoy working with and appears to fit with the style of play.
His 3 goals in 7 games before the injury when Liverpool were worse than average, at best, shows that he is capable of scoring goals on a regular basis and with Liverpool being the second most prolific attack under Klopp in the league in 2016, Ings will be hoping to get in on the act and get back to scoring Premier League goals again.
Ings himself needs to impress in pre-season because with Klopp operating with just one man up front and both Sturridge and Origi already battling for that position the former Burnley man is going have to put the work in. Klopp also has options such as Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane who can play in that number 9 role as well so the fight is well and truly on.
No European football doesn't help Ings cause
Liverpool's lack of European football is also not working in Ings favour and he may have to settle for performances in the domestic cup competitions providing Origi and Sturridge stay fit because right now it's difficult to give a valid argument for Ings to be the main centre forward. However, Sturridge and Origi both missed significant time last season out of action through injury so if those problems reoccur then that may provide Ings with the opportunity to impress and stake his claim.
Ings began to show signs of frustration very early on last season when he didn't appear in any of Liverpool's first three games and instead was left to sit on the bench. He has that attitude of wanting to be out on that pitch every game for the whole 90 minutes. It's that attitude which will help him push for a starting spot and give Klopp selection issues but he could be set for another season of frustration watching on from the bench.
Ings has worked hard to get back on the field. Now he needs to work even harder to stay on it.

TRENT REZNOR'S smile seemed out of place, but not to him. ''Everyone has this impression of me that I'm morose,'' he complained. An interviewer pointed out that the albums he has made as Nine Inch Nails over the last decade are saturated in despair. ''Point taken,'' he said.
Mr. Reznor, 34, was caffeinated and voluble as he sat in a midtown Manhattan hotel room, where he was doing interviews, sipping what was clearly not his first cup of coffee. Dressed in a black (of course) shirt and olive pants, clean-shaven with jet-black hair, he explained how five years went by between ''The Downward Spiral'' and Nine Inch Nails' new album, ''The Fragile.'' Two years were spent on tour, including Nine Inch Nails' mud-spattered appearance at Woodstock '94. Mr. Reznor worked as a producer: on Marilyn Manson's ''Antichrist Superstar,'' on soundtrack music for Oliver Stone's ''Natural Born Killers'' and David Lynch's ''Lost Highway,'' on video-game sounds for ''Quake.'' He moved to New Orleans and built Nothing Studios in a former funeral home. And he procrastinated.
''I was tired of exposing myself,'' he said. ''With Nine Inch Nails, it was stuff out of my journal and the way I really felt about things that gave it its power. There wasn't a persona or a character in between that and me -- it was me.
''It's one thing when you're sitting in your bedroom thinking, 'No one will hear this.' And then, after several years, millions of people have bought those records and now they think they know you, and in a weird way they do, because that's my innermost feelings laid out. I didn't want to share myself in that way anymore.''
The album and tour left Mr. Reznor rich, famous and clinically depressed. ''We started at one level, we ended at another,'' he said. ''I've got everything I ever dreamed I could have. I've got some respect, I've got the bank account, I've got the studio. I think I have friends, whatever they are, though I was wrong about that. I gave up me as a person, as a human, to dedicate myself to this thing, and it worked. And I'm miserable. And then I disliked myself more for feeling that way: What's wrong with you? What are you whining about? You're the luckiest guy in the world to have this situation, and you're really, really unhappy.''Continue reading the main story
Meanwhile, fans and the rock press were growing impatient for a sequel to ''The Downward Spiral,'' and with Nine Inch Nails' silence, expectations and rumors grew. ''I realized I was putting this off,'' Mr. Reznor said. ''It probably was a reaction to some of the pressure that got heaped on: 'most anticipated record' this, 'save rock-and-roll' that, blah blah blah blah. It's flattering to have people interested in what you do, but it can be stifling when the stakes are so high. Is this riff going to save rock? No. And you start thinking crazy stuff like that, and it's not productive. By not doing it, I didn't fail. But I did fail. I was a coward.''
Mr. Reznor, who grew up in the small town of Mercer, Pa., was reared by his grandmother after his parents separated. Her death in 1997 shook him up further. He went alone to Big Sur to write songs on a guitar and a piano, but didn't come back with much. Eventually, he and his co-producer, Alan Moulder, cloistered themselves in his New Orleans studio and started working without a master plan.
''I tend to overthink things and overanalyze,'' he said. ''For 'Downward Spiral,' there was a rigid set of guidelines. There was a story that I wanted to tell. With this record, the framework and the guideline was complete train-of-thought subconscious -- you go where the music takes you.
''The only real conceptual thing was the title, 'The Fragile.' I knew that before I started. I didn't want this to be a shiny slick machine, I didn't want it to be tough. 'The Downward Spiral' has a brutality and an iciness that is a way to prevent you from getting inside. It's an armor. This record, I wanted to be like you're trying to construct something out of scraps in a desperation to make sense of things, and find order, or repair purpose.
''But it's inherently flawed -- you build an empire on a fault line. But the passion and the workmanship going into trying to make something whole becomes apparent.''
Instead of songs, Mr. Reznor started with sounds. ''I see mood and visual as even more important than the chord changes or the harmonic content. So, for example, we'd take the feeling I get watching a David Cronenberg movie -- dread -- like 'Dead Ringers,' one of my favorite movies. You can't put your finger on it but you know something bad's going to happen.
''We'd think about that as a starting point. Do we want drums, or do we want anything rhythmic? Should it be car doors slamming, or people walking, or real drums, or cardboard boxes, or a bit of a sound of train chopped into pieces that might sound percussive?''
Mr. Reznor also chose to work with guitars and other stringed instruments rather than keyboards, his main instrument. ''I don't really know what I'm doing on guitar,'' he said. ''It was a more expressive way to get the part on there, if it's not perfect.''
He ended up with an album that combines ''extreme low-tech primitiveness and ultra-high-tech overthought,'' he said. Some background vocals were recorded with a sweaty T-shirt tied around a microphone to muffle it: ''the sound of someone buried underwater and trying to get through,'' Mr. Reznor said. ''But we recorded digitally.''
Making the album was an excruciatingly slow process. It took three weeks, for instance, to mix ''We're in This Together,'' the album's first single, trying to undercut any possibility that the chorus could seem triumphant. ''It was taking the vocal that wasn't the good one, where my voice was blown out, and the one where the guitars were a little out of tune and played sloppily, and the drums were not mixed right, to make it sound emotionally correct.
''There is an unbelievable amount of unused material,'' Mr. Reznor added. ''For every track that's on each song, there are 10 more that aren't used. So if there's 72 tracks on each song, there's 700 that you didn't hear. That complicated way of arriving at the end result, does that make it better? I don't know the answer to that.''Continue reading the main story

No matter where you work, no matter the field or location, you have surely seen the technology in your job change over time. Computers, smart phones, and automated work forces within robotic technology above all else have completely swung the direction of all businesses in ways they never expected. This tech is not all bad, and within embracing new tools comes many benefits. Technology no doubt has created a more focused and enlightened work force.
There are many ways we can help ourselves, our coworkers, and our employees grow and gain from tech from education to creating a culture of progress. What does this look like though in the work place?
Simply put training is a great place to start. Many fear tech because they are unsure if they will be able to use it, after all everyone fears looking slow or behind the times. Open up the conversation and hold no judgements—only opportunities to learn. Retrain all whenever a new technology is brought in, and make it beneficial to everyone. The key is keeping those around you feeling comfortable, entertained, and encouraged. The next step is tracking feedback both from employees and the numbers. How do those in your company feel about the new tech? How do your sales or business numbers look? Always be open to helping those lagging, and don't be afraid to make adjustments so that all are more productive and use the tech efficiently. Lastly encourage questions not only from those around you, but from yourself as well. Creating a space that is open and able to discuss will always make integrating tech all the much easier. Within creating this open culture in the workplace tech will only make your business more productive!

Fort Erie assistant trainer held in high esteem
FORT ERIE, Ontario – A growing number of trainers have their stock stabled at more than one track and must balance their time and schedules. Enter the assistant trainer, whose role is to manage the barn on-site while providing essential information back to the chief conditioner.
Assistant trainers are left on their own for days and often weeks, carrying the burden while leaving the laurels to others.
Maree Richards joined the assistant trainer ranks in 2009 and is now enjoying her second year in that role at the Fort.
Richards is the assistant for Woodbine-based trainer Martin Drexler and she professionally manages the daily affairs of Drexler's operation here. She is in charge of up to 20 head at any given moment.
Richards, 44, began riding Thoroughbreds as a teenager, and became a jockey. She went on to win 446 races and nearly $3 million in purse money.
Now, in her assistant trainer role, Richards still gallops a few horses each day, just to keep her hand in. But with 20 horses, four grooms, exercise riders, training schedules and vet work to manage, there is little playtime on her busy schedule.
"My day begins at 4 a.m and we are busy through the morning with little time to spare," said Richards.
"Kris Robinson is our main exercise rider and he is as capable and reliable as they come. Luckily we have an excellent, hard-working crew, and that sure makes my day much easier. I love what I do and Marty is a pleasure to work for and a great guy."
Drexler, for his part, believes that Richards is one of the best on the backstretch, and does not mind saying so.
"She is very capable, can be relied upon completely," said Drexler. "I never have to worry about this end of the operation.
"We have great communication. My intention is to nominate Maree for the top assistant trainer at the Fort as she definitely deserves that kind of recognition."
Sandspit preparing to defend title
The Name the Turf Course contest continues, and track officials say the leading contender at the moment appears to be to name the course after Puss N Boots.
Speaking of the Puss N Boots, the Cup race of that name is scheduled for Monday, Sept. 6. Trainer Tony Alderson advises that the old warrior Sandspit, the winner of Puss N Boots in 2008 and 2009, is getting prepared to defend his title.
"He breezed the other day and looked great," said Alderson. "He will have one more breeze before the race. We are certainly hoping to make it a hat trick."
◗ Tuesday will be Legends Day at Fort Erie. Included in a commemorative program that day will be a caricature drawn by jockey Chad Beckon featuring the likes of Hall of Fame notables such as trainer Lou Cavalaris Jr., jockey Robin Platts and many more. Some of those included in the program will be at Fort Erie to meet race fans.
