Kenseth's wife taken to hospital after crash
Katie Kenseth, also a Cambridge native, was practicing for the Oct. 15 �Better Half Dash� when she crashed her �Bandolero� car. She was taken by ambulance to a local hospital, where she was treated and released.
Kenseth, the 2003 Cup champion, posted on Twitter Monday night that his wife suffered �a broken scapula and some bumps and bruises.�
�That didn�t turn out so well,� he posted. �She said that was the shortest racing career in history!�
Charlotte news station WCNC posted photos on its website of Kenseth running down pit road to his wife�s aid after the accident. In one photo, he appears to be taking off her helmet as she sits inside the cockpit of the car.
Katie Kenseth is one of many wives and girlfriends scheduled to drive in the charity race that will be held before next month�s Sprint Cup Series race at Charlotte.
The race is set to go 25 laps on the frontstretch quarter-mile oval in cars that resemble a full-bodied go-cart.
Monday�s practice was the first of two scheduled for this week, and several wives posted pictures on Twitter of them preparing for the practice session with their spouses. Kenseth posted a photo of Katie, wearing a replica of his purple Sprint Cup Series firesuit, standing next to her yellow car with a joke about female driver Danica Patrick.
�Getting ready for better half dash test.... looking all over but no sign of Danica�s husband,� he posted on Twitter.

It's summertime. The fish are jumping and the cotton is high. And, as first reported by Usual Suspects, the Toronto Raptors are going to be a major tenant for the new Rogers Sportsnet One channel beginning this fall - where they'll show 23 Raptors games (with another 12 on regional Sportsnet channels).
The NBA team will be joined at the One by the Vancouver Canucks, who will forgo pay-per-view contests for 14 games at Sportsnet as part of their new stadium naming/media rights deal with Rogers Communications Inc.
The Canucks' move scuttles any hope of a joint western network of the three NHL clubs - an idea Telus Corp. had tried to sell for a time before revenue distribution disputes among the Canucks, Edmonton Oilers and Calgary Flames kyboshed the proposal.
"The Canucks rights agreement is turning into a productive relationship for us," Doug Beeforth, president of Rogers Sportsnet, told Usual Suspects. "The Canucks are a wonderful partner. A long time ago, a wise man told me that rights are king in this business. And it still applies."
The new all-sports network - which debuts Aug. 14 - is an attempt by Rogers to accommodate more major properties at a time of year when NHL coverage saturates the four regional networks.
"It hit us when we couldn't renew the NBA three years ago, because we couldn't deliver the schedule for them," Beeforth said. "We didn't have room left to do what we wanted to do. If you're trying to be a sports broadcaster in this country, you need a diverse a group of properties. Sportsnet One gives us shelf space to acquire those extra properties. And it helps us get around any conflicts in our schedule."
Beeforth says Sportsnet - which made a reported $40.7-million pre-tax profit in 2009 - is now talking to cable and satellite carriers about adding the new channel to their lineups.
"It's a chicken and egg thing - until you have some details you can't really get a discussion going with the carriers. It's logical to say it'll probably be on the Rogers system. The rest are being negotiated."
As they like to say in TV land, call your cable provider and tell them you want Sportsnet One. Or not.
Larscheid Retires
Long-time radio host Tom Larscheid announced his retirement this week. The former CFL player morphed into the radio voice of the Vancouver Canucks 30 years ago, and was know for his … uh, enthusiastic style. Larscheid fulsomely praised players - Bingo, bango, bongo, his name is Roberto Luongo!" - and obliterated them with criticism - "Let's face facts - Jan Bulis is just a dumb hockey player."
His Pavel Bure missteps became legend with Vancouver fans. "I just came from the Canucks dressing room and Pavel's groin has never felt better," Larscheid reported one night in the 1990s. Plus: "Bure is such a great talent, if only he could play with himself out there, it will really give the fans a show."
Love him or tolerate him, it's the end on an era for Canucks fans. Usual Suspects has been told that ex-NHLer Dave Tomlinson of Team 1040 is the successor to Larscheid.
Thanks For Nothing
The very public Chris Bosh divorce from the Raptors was bad enough for the on-court product. But the NBA team's ex-franchise player later plunged the fatal dagger into Toronto via a media interview with the Miami Herald.
Talking about the city's amenities, Bosh put the scarlet letter on Toronto as a non-destination. "I didn't want to go there. It was different," he said. "You could tell you're somewhere different. You could feel it. You could look at it. You could smell it. Everything. All your senses tell you you're somewhere different."
Translation to hoops prima donnas everywhere: Avoid Toronto. As we saw with Bosh and chums Dwyane Wade and LeBron James, players gossip about cities you want to play in. Lifestyle. Money. Media profile. Travel. Winning. All play a role in whether a city gets the good housekeeping seal of approval from the fresh princes of the NBA.
With a willing Bosh in Raptors colours, there was a chance to spin Toronto as a destination. Now? Welcome to Siberia. The Raptors will only get rookies, reclamation projects and guys chasing the final buck for the foreseeable future. They will have to massively overpay to keep players. The only consolation? Commissioner David Stern has exhausted the market for cities that want a transferred NBA team.
King-Sized Mistakes
LeBron James's media obsession has tripped him up again. The newly minted Miami meal ticket dragged along an ESPN reporter to a recent Las Vegas party where the focus was … LeBron (who'd been paid to attend, money being in short supply these days). The story of LeBron worship is gag-inducing, so much so ESPN rapidly pulled the story off their website with a claim it hadn't gone through the editorial process. This would have nothing to do with ESPN ombudsman Don Ohlmeyer flaying the World Wide leader for its sycophantic The Decision TV special. Of course not. Maybe it was the line, "I wish they'd have one of the girls with no panties do that instead of the guy." Your choice.
Lower-Class Twits
Finally: Toronto Argonauts Rob Murphy, meet the new CFL policy on social media. The veteran offensive lineman was offensive on Twitter.com the other day. Something about taking a train through "Frenchland" (trans.: Quebec) and "smelling foreigners." Which shows Murphy - an American - is at least picking up a little of the Canadian mosaic. Just not a nice piece. In any event, Murphy has now become the first CFLer fined under the league's policy for saying dumb stuff. Upside: At least he wasn't talking about Sean Avery's ex-girlfriends.

Tara Spencer is the new mother of a baby girl - one who, by all accounts, should not exist.
And though her worries go far beyond diapers and feeding times, she finds herself settling comfortably into the community of Willow Springs, away from the prying eyes of The Brotherhood religious order and former-flame-turned-betrayer Cyril Woods.
But when her daughter goes missing and her best friend is violently attacked, Tara's newfound sense of security comes to a screeching halt. She realizes that nowhere will be safe until she solves the mystery of her virgin pregnancy once and for all.
While DNA testing seems to lead to more questions than answers, Tara struggles to separate friend from foe - until a series of shocking discoveries finally shed light on the greater meaning behind her unusual situation.
In the stunning second installment of The Awakening series, societal roles are tested and religious norms questioned in a thrilling, paranormal pause resister combining elements of Rosemary's Baby and The Da Vinci Code.

A great second book.
I liked book 1 well enough that I continued onto this, and I'm glad to say that this is better than the first. You are brought into the story from the very start and will be eagerly listening to see what happens.
Tara's daughter was born at the end of book 1, and Tara hopes that things will be different now that she is here, but she is wrong. She and her daughter are in more danger than ever with everyone wanting to know what she is. With her daughter in more danger, Tara decides that it's necessary to leave her behind and travel further to get the answers she needs to survive.
Tara has really grown since book 1. She now has, not only herself, but her daughter to think of, and it's really brought her strength forward. She makes tough decisions in this one and knows that for them to be safe, she needs answers. She leaves her daughter in her families hands and travels to some remote places in search of who her daughter may be. With some thinking she is the messiah and some thinking she is still the anti christ, Tara knows deep down that her daughter is special, but she needs to know why.
We see different POVs in this one, which I liked a lot. We have Taras fathers perspective, which gives an insight to who he is and why he wanted her committed when he thought she was lying, though he still finds it hard to believe!! We see Cyril back too, though I still haven't forgiven him for what he did to Tara, and I'm glad she doesn't either! Both of these play an important part to the overall story and I liked seeing it from their view.
The plot of this one is really fast paced and intense. Some of the mysteries are unraveled and some of the questions from book 1 are answered but we are left with even more than before! We are also left with quite a cliffhanger. In all honesty, I thought the book was missing pages because it stopped so abruptly. It just seems to end all of a shot and it left me reeling. I was like, How can it be left like that!!!! I need the next one yesterday ;)
In all, this is an intriguing and thrilling read. It will make you think, it will grab you and leave you wanting more, it will entwine you into the story till you turn the last page, or in my case, listen to the last minute. It's an interesting story and I can't wait for the next one.
The narrator for this one is different than the first, and I'm glad for the change. Shiromi Arserio was great. She is pleasant to listen to and really gives her all. She brought the characters and story alive and I hope she narrates #3!!

Petraeus to Testify to Congress
Resigning hasn't stopped Congress. Gen. David Petraeus will reportedly still testify before the House and Senate Intelligence Committees this week about the attack in Benghazi that killed the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three others. Petraeus resigned last week as head of the CIA after his extramarital affair with Paula Broadwell was exposed, and since then, the scandal has widened to include Gen. John Allen, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, and Tampa socialite Jill Kelley. Acting CIA director Michael J. Morrell has agreed to testify in Petraeus's place, but sources confirmed to Fox News on Wednesday that Petraeus would still be there.

The following is a statement from U.S. Congressman Mike Pence regarding the Joint Select Committee on Deficit Reduction:
"While I am disappointed that the Select Committee was unable to find common ground over spending cuts, I am grateful that my Republican colleagues held the line in opposing tax increases. As we move toward automatic spending cuts in 2013, I remain committed to working with my colleagues in both political parties to put our fiscal house in order through budget cuts and reforms without compromising our national defense."

If I were to guess without knowing more:
all your rifles are bolt action
the brass for each caliber rifle has only been fired in that rifle
The brass will expand out to match the rifle's chamber. Using a neck resizer eliminates a lot of stretch, but can only be used in a bolt rifle because the brass will generally be too tight for autos etc. The brass in this situation is already sized to match your chamber. If your using full length resizing dies, your rifles chambers may be simply on the smaller side. Be glad you don't have to put as much work into it. Do your loaded shells fall into the chamber, or slide in like a nice tight fit?
There are three kinds of men:
1) The ones that learn by reading.
2) The few who learn by observation.
3) The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves..........

Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said decisively on Wednesday that she would not serve in a second term if President Obama is re-elected and repeated her assertion that she would not run for president in 2012 or 2016.
Asked by CNN's Wolf Blitzer whether she would serve a second four-year stint as secretary of state, Ms. Clinton was blunt. "No," she said, according to a transcript on the network's Web site.
"Would you like to serve as secretary of defense?" Mr. Blitzer asked.
"No," she responded.
"Would you like to be vice president of the United States?"
"Would you like to be president of the United States?"
Ms. Clinton has repeatedly denied speculation that she might shift jobs or consider another run for the presidency. But each time she gets asked the question, she responds in a more definitive way.
Asked by Mr. Blitzer why she doesn't want to be president, Ms. Clinton waxed poetic about being secretary of state, calling it the "best job I could ever have," especially when the world is undergoing such huge changes. "There isn't anything that I can imagine doing after this that would be as demanding, as challenging or rewarding," she said.
"President of the United States?" Mr. Blitzer asked?
"You know, I had a wonderful experience running and I am very proud of the support I had and very grateful for the opportunity, but I'm going to be, you know, moving on," Ms. Clinton said.


text: Question for the reloading experts out there...what is causing my cases to split like this? Details of load: Both are 9mm, the one on the left is WWB and the one on the right is Federal (the cheap Walmart stuff). Montana Gold 115 grain hollow point. Accurate #5 @ 6.2 grains OAL is at 1.1300" I'm pretty anal about my brass, and sort it by number of times fired. This is what two out of a batch of about 500 looked like after being loaded and fired 4 times (included the factory loading). 6.2 grains is within the loading limits provided by Accurate Powder (loading data here: http://www.accuratepowder.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/accurate_load_data_3.5.pdf). The recoil feels slightly softer than the factory ammo (again WWB and Federal). Also, I tried using slightly less powder at one point (at 5.9 grains), and it would not function in my well used G19. I was under the impression brass was supposed to last for many reloads (10 times?). I believe my loads are pretty soft, but it looks like it is too much pressure for the brass? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

All objects are designer objects, in so far as they were once designed. Atheists might counter that eggs weren't designed, they just happened. So to sidestep the chicken and egg issue, I'll assume the mantle of faith and say that God designed eggs. And courgettes.
While all objects have been designed, few of them are 'designer'. The term means anything that is thrice or more the price of a thing down the road that looks just like it. This rule covers jumpers, lemon squeezers, pens and all other items used in life. The exception is recreational drugs, where the prefix 'designer' means 'a chemist has come up with a psychoactive compound that enables you to dance all night and still get to sleep afterwards'. In that context, 'designer' means 'substantially and demonstrably better'.
There is nothing wrong with crazily expensive things - if you object to the cost, all you need do is boycott the product. What's wrong is that the designers at the top of the range, whose skill in designing is, if anything, undermined by the fact that they couldn't have come up with a cheaper one, have appropriated the whole 'design' concept for themselves. This leaves other designers, the ones at Ikea, for instance, without a job title. What are they left with? Purveyors of fine bargain-basement objects? Lowly cheapskate toad? It's not really fair, is it? They're only trying to help.

Join Nate the Great and his trusty companion, Sludge, in solving the greatest mysteries a boy could search for.
In this collection, Nate hunts down a lost grocery list, a favorite stamp, a genius pet, a beach bag, a yucky valentine, second base, and an evil, book-destroying monster.

"Good stories, but a lot of filler as well"
This third collection of Nate the Great books is a little too faithful to the original volumes. The stories themselves are fine (although I think that they are losing steam at this point in the series my daughter still loves them). However, the original books came with extended add ons at the end of the stories to pad out the books such as recipes and craft ideas related to the stories. While these are OK in published format, listening to someone read out a list of true and false questions or a list of facts about stamps isn't very compelling. You'll need to keep yourself in distance of the controls to skip through all the filler on this title.
"the werst store ever since I was born in London ."
I can't stand the way of your story 😡I hate it so much. Don't buy it.

Better models, production methods expand SOI applications
Post a comment
Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) will continue to find its place in high-performance applications and branch out into some of the networking and communications space. Scaling presents challenges for all technologies, but for SOI there is an additional burden of preserving a performance advantage relative to bulk silicon. This will necessitate thinner film SOI substrates (T, Si<50nm) for="" reduced="" capacitance,="" favorable="" coupling,="" and="" well-balanced="" floating-body="" effects.="">50nm)>
In addition, more widespread use may occur if SOI can break the cost barrier either by substantial wafer cost reduction or by enabling a much smaller die size than could be realized in bulk silicon technologies. The latter could result from a novel system-on-chip or memory module such as the capacitorless 1T DRAM recently announced by the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology.
Thin-film silicon-on-insulator (TFSOI) is a semiconductor wafer technology that provides improved circuit speed and power relative to its bulk silicon counterpart and can possibly enable novel devices or integration.
Today, two SOI manufacturing methods are used for producing the vast majority of wafers: separation by implantation of oxygen (SIMOX) and wafer bonding. Both methods have been modified for improved quality and cost, with wafer suppliers inventing, acquiring, or adopting the full range of options. SOI material cost is high relative to bulk silicon or epitaxial wafers and can increase the fully processed wafer cost in the range of 10-20 percent. In addition, for leading-edge CMOS, there is very little die shrink due to the SOI isolation because most design rules have become lithography-limited.
The cost issue is a sizable barrier for proliferation of SOI because many applications cannot command a sufficiently higher price for SOI's traditional advantages of higher speed or lower dynamic power. For this reason, SOI has mainly found use in high-speed applications, or in some cases RF applications, where the isolation properties enable a favorable cost/value scenario. SOI transistor performance is improved over an equivalent bulk device because of the buried insulating layer in the wafer. This layer reduces the amount of electrical charge that the transistor has to move during a switching operation, making it faster and allowing it to switch using less energy (lower power).
These properties can be exploited further in circuit design through the use of higher stacked gates that would be prohibitive in bulk designs. Unfortunately, the same insulating layer that improves speed and power also bounds the body region of the SOI transistor such that its potential depends on such factors as the capacitive coupling to the gate, source/drain, substrate, and any other sources of charge generation or recombination. The body voltage directly affects the threshold voltage of the transistor and its switching characteristics, which means circuit design needs to account for these floating-body effects.
Some companies such as Motorola use internally developed compact models to accurately predict the floating-body behavior and enable LSI circuit design, while other companies find public-domain models offer reasonable SOI predictive capability.
An SOI CMOS process is similar in many ways to the bulk process. Key differences are in the isolation module and transistor integration for high performance while managing floating-body effects. In some cases, there are unique SOI material-to-process interactions that can cause yield loss if not properly modified and optimized. We have adjusted for interactions in shallow-trench isolation, transistor implants, salicidation, contact formation, and even the back-end-of-line (BEOL).
Around 1996, SOI technology development was being done on Motorola's most advanced CMOS platform. Feasibility demonstrations were performed using a 603 eV PowerPC microprocessor and a 4-Mbit asynchronous SRAM in 0.35µm and 0.22µm generations, respectively. That work showed SOI yield could be equivalent to bulk at improved speed and power. Motorola now has production and/or development in 0.1µm 0.13 µm , 90 nm and 65 nm SOI technologies. The 0.18 µm SOI technology in mass production offers core N and PMOS floating-body transistors, body-tied N/P-FETs, implanted precision resistors, zero-Vt NFETs, lateral P+/N well diodes, and N+/N well thin-oxide decoupling capacitors.
Performance up
In the more advanced technologies, we have added multiple Vts, additional precision passives, dual- or triple-gate oxide thicknesses, and up to nine levels of copper metal with low k dielectrics to expand to more system-on-chip applications. Transistor performance is generally 15-20 percent better than the equivalent bulk node. Our highest performance devices in the 90 nm technology boast sub-6 psecond/stage unloaded inverter delay with well-controlled transient effects.
We have successfully introduced multiple SOI technologies into manufacturing. Run rates are high, and can frequently exceed 1,000 wafers per week. Yields in all our production SOI technologies match or slightly exceed the equivalent bulk numbers. For the most part, yield limiters are similar to those of the bulk process. However, a small number of SOI-specific materials defects are still apparent. These are "large-area defects" usually caused by wafer-bonding voids and can show up as a circular cluster of failed bits in bit-mapped memories.
SOI offers the opportunity to combine a variety of n- and p- type MOSFETs with up to nine copper metal layers. Combined with low-k dielectrics, and added features such as multiple voltage thresholds and precision passive devices, the materials system can realize between 15 and 20 percent better performance than bulk silicon alone.
Source: Motorola Inc.
In late 2001, Motorola began shipping the MPC7455 SOI microprocessor. This product is a member of Motorola's fourth-generation (G4) PowerPC family, and is derived from the original MPC7450, which was implemented in bulk silicon. It is manufactured in our 0.18 µm SOI technology featuring 65-nm gate lengths and six levels of copper interconnect. Initial SOI silicon showed a 20 percent speedup over bulk. The MPC7455 processor core supports a seven-stage pipeline, 11 execution units, and a memory subsystem that includes a 256-kbyte on-chip L2 cache. There are also on-chip L3 tag/status arrays to support the construction of an external L3 cache. The MPC7455 design includes 33 million transistors.
With over 750,000 parts shipped to-date, it represents a significant milestone for SOI. This SOI microprocessor has been recognized as "Best High-Performance Embedded Processor Chip" for 2001 by Microprocessor Report. The design currently supports frequencies up to 1.25 GHz. Certainly there is a long list of novel devices enabled by an SOI substrate or where the final device structure has both a front and back oxide. Today's planar CMOS SOI is a good stepping stone for novel devices and 3-D integration because the infrastructure, built for modeling and designing with floating-body devices, is highly leveraged.

By Paul Scott Abbott, AJOT
The $1.6 trillion task of fixing the US intermodal transportation system demands implementation of a collaborative, multifaceted action plan, according to a top UPS executive.
Kurt Kuehn, UPS' senior vice president of worldwide sales and marketing, called for leaders of three leading trade associations meeting in Atlanta on Nov. 12 to 'really begin sounding the alarm' and 'join together to get America moving again.'
Kuehn issued the challenge in his keynote address at the collocated National Industrial Transportation League 100th annual meeting, Intermodal Association of North America 25th Intermodal Expo and Transportation Intermediaries Association annual meeting.
'Inadequate infrastructure threatens to choke the movement of freight and stall the engine of our nation's economy,' said Kuehn, who on Jan. 1 is to assume the role of chief financial officer at Atlanta-based UPS. 'Even worse, it threatens to diminish America's preeminent role in the global economy.'
Kuehn cited a slew of statistics, including the US Department of Transportation report that congestion on highways, seaports, airports and railways costs the nation $200 billion a year and the American Society of Civil Engineers estimate that infrastructure upgrades will cost a staggering $1.6 billion.
Considering that freight on US roads and rails is expected to increase 70% by 2020 and the number of ocean containers shipped nearly triple by 2025, Kuehn cautioned, 'We ain't seen nothing yet.
'These statistics indeed are troubling, but we cannot afford to be hypnotized by numbers,' he said. 'Instead, we have to do something about it.
'Together with government officials, we must agree on a national transportation vision and then invest the money necessary to put a real plan into action,' Kuehn continued. 'In short, we must take action to transform America's transportation infrastructure.'
While recognizing that federal proposals will take decades to fully implement, Kuehn said shorter-term congestion relief can be facilitated by executing an eight-point 'agenda for action' developed by UPS.
The first necessary step, Kuehn said, is to 'elevate the issue,' with shippers and carriers alike pushing government to act. He said executive of major shippers frequently are 'too busy running their own companies to think about macro issues,' so they fail to think of themselves as being in the transportation business and seldom if ever discuss transportation issues with government officials.
Second, Kuehn said, public and private sectors must collaborate to create a national transportation strategy.
'One of the primary weaknesses with the approach to our infrastructure thus far has been its piecemeal nature in planning,' Kuehn said, noting that bottlenecks traditionally have been looked at by mode as separate problems. 'But they're not. Some of the biggest bottlenecks occur where two different modes of transportation interconnect. Without a holistic vision, you don't solve capacity problems, you just move them.'
Acknowledging that the matter is controversial, Kuehn, in his third point, said public and private sectors must share in footing the bill, including through an increased federal gas tax. But he warned that the money generated must be dedicated to highway infrastructure rather than put into the general fund. He also said he favors replacing the fuel tax for commercial aviation with a $25 modernization surcharges, as well as establishment of a dedicated rail trust fund or other user-funded mechanism to specifically pay for rail capacity enhancements.
Fourth, Kuehn called for more efficient use of existing capacity through 'smarter' supply chain management, with more precise sales forecasting, ordering products further ahead of peak periods and securing of vessels space well in advance, as well as disaggregation of inventory so that products are moved only once.
The fifth step, according to Kuehn, entails maximizing capacity through leveraging of technology, including via tra

Michael,

Although I like the idea of improving the way that failures are handled in Haskell, I am having trouble seeing any reason to use your framework.

If a function is always assumed to succeed given certain pre-conditions, and somewhere along the lines my code discovers that one of these had been violated, then I throw an exception in order to communicate to myself the manner in which I screwed up.

If a function might either succeed or fail for a very specific reason, then I use a Maybe because the caller will know exactly what problem is being signaled by Nothing.

If a function might fail for one of many reasons and the caller might care about learning more about the problem, then I use an Either so that I can report the details of the problem.

In each of the latter two cases, I can already use monads to handle the errors in a relatively convenient manner. In the first case I usually want the program to die right away and let me know where I screwed up, but if for some reason I wanted to continue even given arbitrary unanticipated problems in a particular computation the I use an exception handler.

Given that all of the scenarios that I encounter are already handled by the functionality the standard libraries, it is not clear to me what your framework actually offers.

I am not writing this to shoot your framework down, but rather to voice my thoughts aloud in order to hear your response to them, since if there is a use scenario that I am missing in which your framework would be ideal then I would be interested in hearing about it.

Cheers,

Greg

We'd like to announce the next installment of the Failure Framework. Based on feedback, our main goals in this release is to reduce the number of external dependencies and avoid complications with monad transformer libraries at the core of the framework. We have made the following changes:

* Failure is not tied directly to monads anymore. The main typeclass is Failure, which provides the failure function. MonadFailure, ApplicativeFailure and FunctorFailure are provided for convenience.
* The Failure typeclass is now located in the failure package, which has no dependencies. All code dealing with transformers and mtl has been factored into control-monad-failure and control-monad-failure-mtl, respectively.

In addition, we are simultaneously releasing the following packages:
* safe-failure provides safe versions of dangerous, non total functions, such as head, by returning failures. It depends exclusively on failure.
 * attempt provides a concrete data type for handling extensible exceptions as failures. It depends exclusively on failure.
* control-monad-attempt provides a monad transformer for attempt using the transformers library. We do not provide currently an mtl version of this package, but can provide one if there is demand.
 * control-monad-exception, explicitly typed, checked exceptions with monadic stack traces.

Below are the links to the packages just released. Enjoy!

I have always been a die hard francophile but the abundance of classical architecture, fabulous food and days of perfectly pitched late summer, early autumn weather in Italy are winning me over…..!
After some very busy days in Rome, we drove onto Umbria where towns founded in the 12th & 13th century like Bevagna, Spello, Assisi & Montefalco are so pretty they look like a movie set. Timeless architecture, sun drenched colours lime washed onto buildings and beautiful doors and shutters…..oh and did I mention the food, spaghetti with black truffles!
I am on the road so hopefully will post again soon, Ciao!

Even deep discounts on everyday items don't seem to be enough to get Walmart shoppers to bite these days, and other chains are worried Americans won't be in the mood to spend in the months ahead, which are critical for those companies.
On Tuesday, quarterly financial results from retailers including Home Depot and Abercrombie & Fitch showed that profits are rising because retailers are cutting costs and keeping their inventories lean. ...
Recall the heavy reliance of many retailers upon winter sales. Imagine what a disaster it would be for them if enough folks actually heeded what some of us say (versus Charles Dickens) about Christ-mass! Note well, such a disaster would only be temporary, for the money saved would be spent on other things (Opportunity Cost, q.v.).
Also, when you see a story like this, look at the stores they name. Home Depot? Can't compete with Lowe's on selection, and if you're going to buy cheap Chinese tools, go to Harbor Freight. TJ Maxx? Saks? (I've never even seen a Saks.) Abercrombie & Fitch? These stores are not driving the economy.
I'm surprised that JC Penny is not mentioned in this article. That's a first. JC Penny is the poster child store for blaming the economy, weather, etc for not making its numbers.

So it seems like a number of people here have recently migrated over from iPhone, just curious what are your all favorite features/apps since you switched over.
I used an iPhone 3 from 2008-2010 and then an iPhone 4 from 2008-Sept 2012. I was jailbroken on those devices but still pretty blown away by many Android functions. I loved loved loved my iPhone when I first got one, back in the day they were so damned ahead of the curve, but over time HTC/Samsung has caught up and they are no longer making truly impressive devices worthy of me overpaying for them, and to have the Nanny state of Apple telling me what apps I am capable of using. Those are the main reasons I made the switch. Although I still kind of miss the smaller size of my iPhone.
ANYWAYYYYS....things I love since I made the switch:
1. TORRENTS! You could never ever get a Torrent application from the Apple App Store. I use "adownloaded" via the Google Play Store. I love mainly the ability to switch between various torrent trackers and even grab torrents from some of the private torrent sites I use (ones for music / video). If I feel like listening to some old album I don't have on my PC at home, simple just grab the torrent. Forgot to DL the new Boardwalk Empire, just grab it off a tracker via Adownloader.
2. Power management options. Having an app to turn off power hog features (wifi, mobile data, gps, etc) when the screen is turned off and then booting them all back up quickly when I turn the screen back on. I use "Go Power Master" for this and love it. You don't need to be rooted to do it either.
3. Themes / visual customization. Animated backgrounds, etc. Some of those things were available to jailbroken (and JB saavy) iPhone users but it was extreeemly buggy and problematic when I tried to mess with visual display customization with my jailbroken iPhones. Here its entirely simple to do for non-root and root users.
4. Battery replacement / external memory. Bought 2 extra batteries and an external battery charger off ebay for only $20 all included. Yes maybe that's a testament to the...not so amazing battery life of the GS3, but I still love the option of having extra 100% charged batteries at home and in the office in case I forget to charge my GS3. Down to 10% and no time to charge? Pull off the ottebox and throw another battery in. Also love the external memory, bought a 32GB micro SD as soon as I got my GS3. Blows my mind that Apple charges $100 extra to go from 16gb to 32gb and to 64gb (when it's been proven online it only costs them $10 to raise the memory....a 90% margin customers have to pay....retarded. A lot of my iPhone devotee friends would just tell me to get the 16gb and keep all my extra music/movies "in the cloud". Fuuuuuuck that. Why blow my wireless data plan constantly DLing albums from my Cloud account rather than just having a phone with a decent amount of memory.
5. Video playback. GS3 has flawlessly played everything I've thrown at it, without any conversion. AVI's / XVID / X264 / MKV / VOB, MP4, alll of it. It's a far far cry from trying to get any bloody files to play on the iPhone, iTunes was so prickly with formats that even many .MP4's I downloaded wouldnt sync properly with iPhone. It was a major pain in the ass to throw videos on the iPhone because so many would require conversion. Even the third party apps in the app store that could play SOME AVI/XVID would get buggy and be unable to play back 50% of anything I threw at it.

Grilled fruits add robust flavors to cocktails
Updated 12:05 pm, Friday, June 28, 2013
Independence Day celebrations usually center around grilled burgers, hot dogs and barbecue. Why limit the experience to proteins and vegetables for a meal when grilled fruits can add depth and new flavors to cocktails?
Junior Merino, the Liquid Chef, and Emmanuel LaRoche, vice president for marketing and consumer insights for Symrise, a flavor manufacturer, discussed tips and techniques for creating cocktails with grilled fruits during their seminar, Fruit Flavors: A La Parilla, at the Manhattan Cocktail Conference in May.
"The idea is that you can really have a different twist to food if you approach them by grilling the fruits," LaRoche said.
Their customer research shows that people are more willing to experiment when they are grilling. More importantly, grilled fruit cocktails can appeal to men who usually aren't keen on being seen drinking a fruit drink in a group.
Merino draws on his background from his hometown of Puebla, Mexico, where fruit is often incorporated into prepared meals.

"It's always cooked because it adds texture, it adds acidity, it adds flavor," he said. "Once you grill (fruit), you are evaporating water content or concentrating the flavor."
The fruits can then be juiced or puréed to add texture.
For example, the caramelized sugar and higher acidity of grilled pineapple adds balance to the agave flavors of the tequila reposado used in the Smokey Tamarindo cocktail.
He prefers to combine grilled fruits with brown spirits because they both have spiciness and caramelized flavors that pair well.
Merino has experimented with many different types of fruits, including apricot, pear, banana, fig, grapefruit, kiwi, mango, passion fruit and strawberry to create basic and advanced cocktails, although at home, this technique could be as easy as grilling pineapple slices for a new flavor in piña coladas, or peaches for bellinis. Think of grilled bananas in a frozen daiquiri.
Merino and LaRoche presented a few cooking tips.
Flat tops take longer to grill, and direct fire is faster. For instance, pineapple might take 8 minutes on each side on a flat top, but only 3-4 minutes directly over fire.
Fruits should be sliced 1/2-inch thick for efficient cooking; citrus should be halved and placed flesh side down on a grill. "Grapefruit and lemons are like a dome, so it bakes all the juices inside," Merino said.
"Apples are difficult to grill because of their shape. Watch how the skin is burning, blistering. Then turn frequently, until the whole apple is blistered," Merino said. After grilling, the skin can be slipped right off prior to juicing. Leaving on the skin will give it a different profile.
Fruits can be juiced and discarded, or peeled and pureed for added texture.
There are also nonalcoholic uses for grilled fruits, such as grilled lemons in lemonade. LaRoche said he's seen applications beyond drinks, including with iced tea, yogurt, ice cream and more.
Locally, Steven Raul Martín, bar manager at Nao, is experimenting with grilled fruit cocktails for the summer menu, which should be out next week. Martín likes to add depth to his cocktails, and he gets inspiration from watching the chefs at the Culinary Institute of America's adjacent kitchen.
He's finalizing flavors for a cocktail that combines grilled beet juice and cachaça and another cocktail that pairs grilled peaches and añejo tequila, which gives the drink a nice robust finish.
"It's definitely going to come out in the taste and leave people guessing 'What is that incredible flavor?'" he said.
"It's not gimmicky; it just creates this whole other profile. It comes down to making things interesting and delicious."

Spoilers ahead!
A few not-so-shocking giveaways about this week's new movie releases, including Justice League and Frank Serpico
Matthew Lickona 6 p.m., Nov. 17
More and more these days, political committees are taking on a life of their own, outlasting the campaigns they were created for by years and raking in thousands of dollars in contributions on behalf of elected officials who raise the cash from those who have a special interest in one issue or another. Reformers have long tried to outlaw the practice, saying it is an open invitation to corruption, but thus far they have had no success.
A recent example is furnished by GOP San Diego County supervisor Bill Horn, reelected to office in November 2010, yet still collecting money for that campaign to pay off creditors. According to Horn's most recent financial disclosure, filed last month, the campaign fund was very busy last year, raising $78,432 and making total expenditures of $95,233, leaving it with cash in hand at the end of 2011 of $1145, along with outstanding debts of $15,450.
Five-hundred-dollar maximum donations to Horn included those from Urban Land Institute associate Molly Chase of Los Angeles; former San Diego mayor Dick Murphy aide and lobbyist John Kern, now at an address in Williamsburg, Virginia; Newport Pacific vice president Christine Cavanaugh; Christopher Garrett of Latham & Watkins; J & J Properties associate Amy Brothers; Sycuan tribal treasurer LaShunna Davidson; Sycuan tribal councilmember Henry Murphy; ex–GOP assemblyman George Plescia, listed on Horn's disclosure as a consultant to California Policy Advisors, a Sacramento lobbying and government affairs firm; Southwest Strategies accounting clerk Constance Ziegaus; mega-developer Scott McMillin; and Phillip Schott of El Macero, near Sacramento, a government relations specialist at Schott & Lites Advocates, Inc.
The two Sycuan donations, as well as an additional $250 contribution from tribal project manager Cody J. Martinez, came on the same date, July 5, in the midst of intense lobbying of the board of supervisors for approval of the tribe's controversial move to annex the 1350-acre former Singing Hills Golf Course to the reservation. Last month the supervisors voted unanimously to drop their opposition to Sycuan's plan in exchange for various financial and environmental concessions made by the tribe, though critics say the deal will still result in a loss of tax revenue to other local agencies.
In the second half of 2011, according to its statement, the campaign fund paid Horn campaign consultant Tom Shepard & Associates $10,500. Shepard's firm was still owed $7500 at the end of the year. Another creditor, the campaign accounting firm of Scott & Cronin, received $3070 in debt repayment and was still owed $650. Horn also made a payment of $4500 on a $10,000 debt to campaign manager David Graham, a onetime supervisorial aide, leaving a remaining balance due of $5500 and one more reason for Horn to continue soliciting funds for the 2010 campaign in 2012.
This item has been updated to clarify George Plescia's employment status at the time of his contribution to the Horn campaign.

Collecting baseball cards and other sports cards is a fun way for the whole family to build lasting memories. Kids, parents and grandparents can all have fun together colleting sports cards.
Baseball Cards and Sports Cards collecting tips: The key factor to remember when building your baseball cards, football cards, other sports cards and non-spots card collections is that the condition of the baseball cards, football cards, or other cards is very important to it's value and the selling price. Baseball cards in lower condition bring far less than those same sports card in top shape. Make sure to protect your sports cards with the proper card supplies every time. If you ever think of selling baseball cards, football cards, or other sports cards your top condition cards will always get better prices than sports cards that are not in top condition regardless if they are old sports cards or new sports cards when you put them up for sale.
There is no right or wrong baseball cards to collect. Many people like Topps baseball cards or Upper Deck baseball cards but there have been many manufacturers over the years and even the ones that are no longer in business anymore like Fleer or Pinnacle are collected by many fans. Some buy only brand new sports cards while other buy only old vintage baseball cards. Price, value or what a price guide says a sports card is worth should not be the only or even the main factor in what you buy. The way to have the most fun with the hobby is to collect what you like and how you like and not what someone else says they think you should.
Many hobbiests like to buy baseball cards by the pack or box and get a thrill out of hitting their favorite player or that hard to find card insert, autograph or relic card. Others like to collect baseball card team sets or cards of their home town players and yet others buy factory sets or build sets by hand. Collecting baseball cards, football cards, basketball cards, or any other types of sports trading cards can be a life long hobby that's fun for the whole family. So above all enjoy your hobby.

Cleveland, OH- When you think of Cleveland, Ohio what comes to mind? Do you think of LeBron James? How about Lake Erie? What about the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Have you ever thought about solar arrays and wind turbines? Well, Green Energy Ohio has put together a three day event showcasing energy efficient homes and businesses in Ohio.
Over the past 11 years Green Energy Ohio has put together a tour of homes and businesses in Ohio who have invested in solar, geothermal, and wind energy efficiency upgrades for their buildings. They also incorporate newly built buildings that are highly energy efficient. The tours will occur October 3rd through the 5th and they are absolutely free of charge.
Being energy efficient has major rewards not just for you but for your country and for your world. When your purchase energy efficient appliances such as ENERGY STAR appliances, you can save up to 30% on your electricity bills. Even the small act of replacing a light bulb saves up to 30-40% in energy. Making improvements to your home in the way of becoming more energy efficient is a great way to save money while saving the environment.
Utilizing energy efficient products and partaking in energy conservation has a positive effect on the environment. When we use energy efficient methods we no longer rely on importing other energy sources such as oil, natural gas and coal. When we use less energy we also avoid pollution from greenhouse gases. Energy efficient cars and trucks emit much less pollution and they can help reduce the effects of climate change.
Thanks to the efforts of Green Energy Ohio, residents in Ohio have become more aware of how to live a more energy efficient life. Last year they administered a survey and 80% of participants were more likely to pursue energy efficient methods after attending the 2012 tour. They have educated people across the state in the importance of energy efficient techniques to create a better and cleaner future for generations to come.
The non-profit Green Energy Ohio group is looking for homes and businesses to take part in this year's tour. If you would like to nominate your house or business, the deadline is September 5th at midnight. Out of the 88 counties in Ohio, 66 of them have participated in previous tours. Last year there were 25 sites within 25 miles of downtown Cleveland and 33 sites within 25 miles of downtown Akron.
If you are looking for a chance to learn about home solar arrays, wind turbines, or even wind farms in Ohio, here is your chance. Budget Dumpster often showcases organizations committed to energy efficiency, stay updated by visiting our blog. For more information regarding conservation, go to the Conservation section of our blog.

Forgive Facebook advertising platform Nanigans if it can't fight the urge to scream Yahoo about its new chief operating officer, as that's where Marc Grabowski spent the past nine years, most recently as vice president, media sales, North America.
At Nanigans, Grabowski will lead the sales, marketing, business development, and operations teams.
Highlights of his tenure at Yahoo include driving its acquisition of Interclick and leading Genome sales, midmarket sales, and reseller relationships.
Nanigans Co-Founder and CEO Ric Calvillo said:
Marc understands all facets of online advertising, from sophisticated optimization techniques to the strategic opportunity that social advertising presents to businesses. We're excited to have an online media veteran like Marc join our team during this time of high growth.
Grabowski added:
With its focus on helping large-scale advertisers define and optimize for the lifetime value of their customers, Nanigans has grown quickly to offer the leading Facebook advertising software platform. The depth of the company's technology and intellectual property, coupled with social being at the crux of the next frontier of online advertising, are just two of the reasons why I'm excited to join this team.

Hey, you party people. Yeah, you.
It's time for Ultra Music Festival again. And guess who's back to blow our minds. It's our favorite Aussies, Empire of the Sun's Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore.
They dazzled the Ultra crowd in 2011, playing tracks off their debut album, Walking on a Dream. And now they're returning for UMF 2014 with their exciting sophomore album, Ice on the Dune.
Empire of the Sun on Pop Stars, the Bible, and Ultra 2014
Empire of the Sun: As part of Ultra Music Festival 2014. Saturday, March 29, at Bayfront Park, 301 Biscayne Blvd., Miami. Tickets cost $399.95 plus fees via ultratix.ticketfreak.com. Visit ultramusicfestival.com.
Luke recently chatted about pop stars, writing, film, and what to expect from this year's Empire of the Sun show.
New Times: How are you today?
Luke Steele: Yeah, good. Second coffee.
I've been on a coffee kick lately. But it's bad, because then I can't sleep at night.
Girls are like that. I need about 20 to get by. [laughs]
So this will be your first time back in Miami since Ultra in 2011, right?
Yeah! Well, I did some writing down there with the band for the last record. It was fun.
A lot of people like to write and record here but not actually play here.
I don't know why not. Why wouldn't they? It's so nice down there, so warm and balmy. Yeah, it's beautiful.
How do you think your live show has changed since the last time you were here?
You know, we kind of began with a pretty elaborate project. We wanted everything to hit all the senses. There was gonna be animals, different things, and different dimensions happening, but you start to realize it'll cost about a million dollars each show, so you have to kind of figure out how to make it work. But this next round, we've added bigger stairs and bigger dance moves — started to make it more like a movie.
There's a strong narrative with the debut that continues into this latest album. Could you tell us about that?
A lot of it is really just escapism, sort of like an exploration of the imagination. Or a dream. Or it's love.
We started writing screenplays, like, as a kind of mental right of way. We sort of set out across the world, we'd go through all these different towns. But yeah, there's always that running alongside the actual songs.
Do you plan on doing anything further with those screenplays, as far as actual production?
Yeah, the idea is to do the feature film. It just sort of needs to be done in its own time with the proper director. Kind of a big deal, making a movie. [laughs]
Doesn't seem like you guys ever take much downtime.
Yeah, I think me and Nick try to outdo each other. [laughs]
In the spirit of competition, you've done some cool stuff, though. And you've been working with some big names, co-writing for Beyoncé, Jay Z, Tinie Tempah.
It's just like that old quote, "Always work with people that are better than you." You know, to understand what vortex these artists run in. It's all a lot quicker and on a different sort of scale, a universal scale. You pick up all these lessons you can't be taught anywhere. When I did vocals for the Jay Z project, it was like, "We need vocals in 24 hours. Can you get to New York?" You've got to work quick; you've got to understand that it has to be fast.
What makes you decide what you write for other people and what you keep for yourself?
Lately, I'll write a theme for a song and it might be completely obvious, like something Rihanna would sing. So that's the kind of liberating part, that you can step into their shoes and kind of, like, become Rihanna for the time that it takes to write the song. I guess that's why I'm slightly envious of actors, because they get to live all these different characters throughout their lives. They're not just one person. I've discovered I can do that with songwriting. I can speak what they feel.
That's interesting. Actors must learn a lot about themselves through living other lives. Do you think you can say the same thing about yourself? Have you learned about yourself as a songwriter or just as a person through writing for other people?
Yeah, I think so! You start bringing out the best in things, and you've got to dig deep and feel someone else's voice. You can't hide behind abstraction or distortion.
With this new album, you seem to be moving toward a more radio-friendly sound. Was that always the goal?
Yeah, you've got to progress. It says it in the Bible: Progress is the law of Heaven. It's like, as much as we're just artists, we're also teachers and leaders. We have experience. We're gonna take all that along for the ride.
You've said you can have a great song, but if it doesn't have the right "flavor or impulse or texture to it," it doesn't fit into the Empire world. How do you judge if a new composition works?
It really is like an unspoken thing. We just kind of know. It's like standing in twilight or the first beam of light through a door. It's just that time when you look at each other and know, "That's it." It's like joy or happiness. You don't have to explain it. It's love. It's that moment when all worlds collide. It's perfect.
You've also mentioned how you wish you could just "be Kanye," with regard to his "nakedness" and ability to put it all out there. What's stopping you?
