I am completely a newbie in working with IIS and so I don't know even that I am writing this post in the correct section of the forum or not.
I have just seen the video by Henrik Frystyk Nielsen from PDC 09 on developing Rest Applications with .Net framework.
So I have just created a new project with downloading "WCF REST Service Application" template.
Using this template, there are already couple of auto generated methods which are using PUT and DELETE verbs which are not working for me.
I am using Fiddler to create request over IIS 7.
Through fiddler GET and POST verbs are working fine but when i use the PUT or DELETE one it shows the error 405 "Method not Allowed".
I am working on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and it uses IIS 7 (which is by default I suppose, I have just enable the IIS from "Add or Remove Programs").
I have tried to enable them from "Request Filtering", but that is not working.
So anyone please let me know how to enable PUT and DELETE verbs in IIS 7.

Seasonal influenza
(also called
the flu) is an upper respiratory infection. It is caused by the influenza virus. Flu strains differ from one year to the next. There are two main kinds infecting humans:
You can get the flu when you breathe in droplets from someone infected with the virus. It can also be spread by touching a contaminated surface and then putting your hand to your mouth or nose.
Each winter, the flu spreads around the world. Anyone can get it, but some are at greater risk than others:
On average, 5%-20% of the US population gets the flu each year. More than 200,000 people are hospitalized for flu-related complications. About 36,000 die from the disease.
Symptoms include:
Treatment may include:
There are two types of influenza vaccines:
The flu shot is approved for use in people older than six months. The shot is made from an inactivated, killed virus. It is given by injection, usually into the arm.
The nasal spray flu vaccine is approved for healthy people aged 2-49 years who are not pregnant. It is made from live, weakened flu viruses. It is taken by nasal spray.
Both vaccines contain three influenza viral strains—type A virus (H3N2), type A virus (H1N1), and a type B virus. The vaccine changes from year to year based on which viruses are likely to circulate in a given flu season.
The flu shot is not effective against
pandemic H1N1 (2009) flu. You must get the
vaccine for pandemic H1N1 (2009) flu.)
Anyone who wants to reduce their risk of the flu should consider the vaccine. Those who should get a yearly flu vaccine include:
It takes about two weeks for the vaccination to protect you against the flu. Even if you have been vaccinated, you can still get the flu. If you have symptoms, tell your doctor.
Flu season can begin as early as October and as late as April or May. The best time to get vaccinated is as soon as the vaccine becomes available. Doing so will protect you before the flu comes to your community.
It is recommended that two doses are given (separated by four weeks or more) to children who meet certain criteria:
Almost all people who receive the influenza vaccine have no problems. There are certain risks associated with the vaccine. As with any vaccine, there is a small risk of serious problems, including severe allergic reaction.
Adverse effects associated with the flu shot include:
Adverse effects associated with the nasal spray vaccine include:
Certain people should consult their doctor before receiving the influenza vaccine. These include:
Good preventive measures include:
In the event of an outbreak, vaccinating as many susceptible people as possible, especially those in priority groups, is the primary focus. In addition, the use of antiviral medications (eg,
zanamivir) can reduce the duration of the illness when given within two days of onset. Certain antiviral medicines can also be given before exposure to Type A influenza virus to help prevent illness. Finally, people who are infected should be isolated as much as possible.

Joynes Event: Marie Howe, American Poet
Thu, February 2, 2012
Marie Howe photographed by ©Brad Fowler
Marie Howe, one of the most celebrated and beloved contemporary American poets, will read from her recent work and take questions from the audience. Howe's books include The Kingdom of Ordinary Time, What the Living Do, and The Good Thief, which was selected by Margaret Atwood as the winner of the open competition for the National Poetry Series.
"Marie Howe's poetry is luminous, intense, and eloquent, rooted in an abundant inner life. Her long, deep-breathing lines address the mysteries of flesh and spirit, in terms accessible only to a woman who is very much of our time and yet still in touch with the sacred." —Stanley Kunitz
Howe has taught at Sarah Lawrence College, Columbia, and NYU. She co-edited (with Michael Klein) the essay anthology In the Company of My Solitude: American Writing from the AIDS Pandemic (1994). She has received fellowships from the Bunting Institute at Radcliffe College, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown.
The Joynes Reading Room will give away free copies of Marie's Howe's books (to honors students only) in advance of her visit. Supplies are limited. Inquire at the front desk in the Joynes Room.

This event is free and open to the public.

The Strokes, 'Comedown Machine' – First Listen Track-By-Track
You're never quite sure what to expect from The Strokes these days, are you? After the five-year wait for 'Angles', the New Yorkers have recorded its follow-up with uncharacteristic hustle, seemingly looking to make up for lost time. Then they go and wrong-foot everyone by releasing 'One Way Trigger', the most polarizing comeback song imaginable. So it's with some trepidation that we approach 'Comedown Machine', an album for which we simultaneously harbour high hopes and deep reservations. What can you expect? Well, read on…
Tap Out
Fair warning: broadly speaking, 'Comedown Machine' is probably the least-like themselves The Strokes have ever sounded. That'll be an instant red flag to anyone longing for a return to the aesthetic of the first two albums, but in the name of artistic integrity (read: their frontman's love of keyboards) they've pushed forwards, and 'Tap Out' is proof that it needn't be a bad thing. Opening with an incongruous six-second paroxysm of guitar, the track soon settles into a mellower version of the tinkling, coke-bottle rhythm from 'Don't Stop Till You Get Enough' while Julian (albeit in a higher, reedier voice than usual) still sounds reassuringly like Holden Caulfield putting on the moves, shrugging that "Even though I really like your place/ Somehow, we don't have to know each other's name."
Described by the radio station who broke the news of its existence as having a "classic Strokes sound", 'All The Time' is indeed the album's big, shiny thrown bone, a song that'll make you want to dig out those old disintegrated jeans from 2002 and earn yourself six months on the Sex Offenders' register by wearing them in public again. It'd almost be worth it, too: from the way it collapses into motion with a sudden percussive jolt, to Nick Valensi's serpentine guitar solo, to the unmistakable 'Room On Fire' vibe running throughout, this is rock 'n' roll as only The Strokes can do it. The best bit, though, is the lyric that seems to poke fun at the band's torturous creative process: "All the time that I need is never quite enough, all the time that I have is all that's necessary."
Well it's certainly… different. Given the toxic response it was met with, we're going to go ahead and assume that you'll be relieved to hear 'One Way Trigger' isn't any sort of litmus test for 'Comedown Machine'. If we're being honest, though, we still don't quite get the hate for it: sure, it's not vintage Strokes and the A-ha keyboard hook is a little discombobulating, but it does eventually grow on you. That said, hearing the man who wrote 'Barely Legal' sing about how hard it is to find the right dog for his cosy suburban enclave just serves to remind you that time makes a mockery of us all.
Uh-oh, it looks like someone's done gone come down with a dose of da funk. Yeah, we know what you're thinking: this might have been horrible, but it somehow ends up being great fun, with Nikolai Fraiture's daft, elastic bassline underpinning a Franzian strut into outright disco. Green Day recently tried something similar and got laughed out of town, but The Strokes seem oddly suited to it; the song has enough moving parts to keep every member occupied, while Casablancas – demanding to know "What kind of asshole drives a Lotus?"- is on richly sardonic form.

From the moment you hear Fab Moretti's echoey, skipped-heartbeat drums, you know something's afoot. Sure enough, the mellotron isn't far behind, doing that phantasmal 'Strawberry Fields' thing which seems to be the instrument's sole purpose. Then Julian's bruised murmurations drift into the mix. And it's all a bit… weird. Which is becoming a bit of a theme, isn't it? Still, there's something oddly hypnotic about this song; like its protagonist (who 'fesses up that, "It's not the first time I'm watching you passing by…"), it sits in the background almost unnoticed, only revealing itself over time and multiple listens.
At two minutes and forty-five seconds, '50/50′ is the album's shortest song, as well as being its loudest and nastiest, built around a coiled garage-rock riff that puts us in mind of the Von Bondies (the first thing to put us in mind of that band since… hmm, we'll back to you on that). It seems likely that this'll become a live favourite, and possibly even a future single: it's got the same sort of ferociousness and intensity that 'Reptilia' was blessed with.
Slow Animals
On an album full of 'growers', this is the one song that's a little 'meh'. In fact, the song seems to be a bit 'meh' about itself: halfway through it appears to run out of steam, and after a brief interlude of head-scratching, decides that another chorus will be just the tonic for what ails it. Sadly, it's mistaken. There's a frustrating lack of purpose or urgency here, characterised by Julian's tentative, half-whispered vocals ("You don't have to be so loud/ Everyone can hear you in this whole damn crowd") and the heard-it-all-before quiet-loud dynamic it falls back on.
You know what I love about this song? The fact that when you listen to it through a decent set of headphones, you can zero in on Albert Hammond Jr's guitar, which just does not stop. Like, ever. The man must have pistons for forearms. Back in the day – when his hairline didn't preclude the rocking of an afro and he moved like a bobblehead on meth – this is the kind of tune he'd commit braincell genocide to. Anyway, the song itself: it's a bit all over the place on first listen, what with sci-fi guitars pinging left and right and no recognisable chorus to set your bearings by, but – as tends to be the case with 'Comedown Machine' – you eventually begin to make sense of it.
Songwriting duties in the band are apparently spread a little more evenly these days, but it seems significant that the record both 'Comedown Machine' and 'Angles' most frequently resembles is Casablancas' 2009 solo effort. That's not intended as a knock, by the way – we really dug 'Phrazes For The Young'. Nevertheless, 'Chances' is one of those songs – like 'Games', their almost-but-not-quite venture into chillwave – that's slow-paced, mostly electronic and doesn't really feel like The Strokes. "I waited for you, I waited on you, but now I don't" sings Casablancas in that new falsetto he's so fond of, seeming to echo the sentiments of those who'll have given up on the album by this point.
Another noticably funky cut, with more guitars that sound like keyboards (The Strokes remain masters of that particular trick) and Casablancas' double-tracked vocals (one low, one high) imploring us to "Say no more, just get it all off your chest". If we have a gripe with 'Happy Endings' it's that, at a shade under three minutes, it actually feels a little short: the song seems to cut out just as things are getting going. Still, there are worse gripes to have with songs than wanting a little bit more of them.
Honestly, I'm not quite sure what to call this. Remember the demo for 'You Only Live Once', the one where it was just Julian crooning woozily over an electric piano? Well it starts off somewhere between that and 'Call Me Back', but it's also got an eerie, last-foxtrot-at-the-Overlook-Hotel thing going on, with a plonking bass piano motif, gooey Alvino Rey guitar and a wax-cylinder crackle running throughout. It sounds like it's been beamed in from the 1940s. Which is not something I thought I'd ever say about a Strokes song, but there you go.

The first 10 years or so of umpiring, all my knowledge was acquired 'on the job'. Guided and coached by mentors. And of course watching others and learning. I had what I thought was enough plate time that an hour or two clinic wasn't really going to be much of a benefit for a veteran like me. But it did and they still do. Here's a tip I leaned at a clinic and to this day as I relate it to other similar veterans each remarks the same – "I didn't know that?"
Scenario – The pitcher rocks and burns a fast ball toward the plate. Unfortunately for all, the pitch is a 44-foot fast ball that hits in front of the plate and strikes the batter before he/she can even think about getting out of the way. Now what are you going to call?

Carrie Underwood Enjoys Washing Her Own Clothes at Public Laundromats While on Tour [VIDEO]
Carrie Underwood admitted to Oprah that when she is on tour she washes her own underwear and she does it at public laundromats. Carrie said "I just don't like other people doing my laundry, it just freaks me out." The American Idol winner said that she also does the grocery shopping for them while on the road.
Although Carrie said "it takes up too much time to do my stuff, but I just can't imagine someone else doing my stuff." By Oprah's surprised reaction that the American Idol star actually did her own laundry, leave me to believe that Miss Winfrey must have a staff the does unmentionables.

Congresswoman claims a Filner groping (years ago)
Former San Diego mayor allegedly went in for a kiss
Don Bauder 5:30 p.m., Nov. 20
(Page 2 of 4)
continued [Editor's note: During a recent telephone interview, the former employee cited in the memo denied he was fired by the district and produced a letter of recommendation on his behalf signed by all five members of the board of education. He added that the coalition had been active for many years before the 2002 elections.]
The concern was that the entire panel of questioners was made up of Bersin critics and it would be a complete set-up. Furthermore, Maureen Magee had stated that she would only be going to this forum and the League of Women Voters forum.
So the concern was that she would be writing a not too nice story about myself and Nakamura -- especially aided by the fact it was a complete set-up to make us look bad.
As we walked in every single person involved in the forum -- the person directing traffic to the hall, the people providing refreshments, the ushers at the door, the people filming, etc., all had on Lee buttons and SDEA buttons.
Then just before we are ushered up to the podium the moderator gets N and I aside and tells us that out of fairness he must tell us that he is [school-board member] Frances Zimmerman's son-in-law.
At this N bursts out in tears (after a few minutes and prior to the podium she gathers herself together). I have to say he was a very nice young man who had probably never had this experience before and he was completely befuddled as to what to do.
I hate to sound cold-hearted, but it was pretty entertaining watching them both begin to disenigrate. N recovered and then all was OK.
We go up to the podium and [the organizer] begins with a very a long-winded supposedly statistical tearing down of the Blueprint on a PowerPoint demo.
Tom has seen the data and it is ludicrous.
Then the panel begins to ask us questions that [the organizer] has assured me no one has seen before the questioning.
As soon as the questioning begins both D and L take out typed, prepared notes for each question and read their answers for every question asked (AH, nothing like honest competition).
The questions were very mild and were very fair and to top it off, even though they had obviously spent a great deal of time preparing answers -- their answers were terrible.
Then at the end, even though we had all been told that there would be no final statement, the moderator (Fran's son-in-law) said he was going to make an executive decision and allow a one-minute statement.
Both D and L immediately take out typed prepared statements (you'll love this -- they were so long that they both had to be stopped short of their conclusion, leaving a confusing and muddled ending).
DeBeck told the audience that they should not vote for a "want to be school board member" but that they should only vote for someone who is already a school board member. I retorted that not only was that the most absurd thing I had ever heard him say on the campaign trail, but that apparently it is a burr under Mr. deBeck's saddle that he is in America where any citizen can run for office.
I then went on to say that to counter his remarks that all my endorsers were politicians and that the further you got from education the closer you get to my endorsers.
I said I would turn that argument on its head and point out that all these people had worked with John during his years on the board and that now not one of them endorsed him. This shows that the closer you get to people who have worked with him the further you get from people who support him.
(Even old John liked it and told me he would have to agree. He likes to think of himself as a cranky old man).
All in all it was not too bad.
Also Channel 6 (Fox) seems to follow me everywhere and asked for an interview afterwards. They did and as they were leaving Lee demanded they do him, so the cameraman put his stuff back up and did a quick interview of he and N (I got odds they don't show it).
Then outside KUSI got me aside and did an interview about the DC killings. Lee demanded they interview him and they told him it had nothing to do with the race and basically told him to pound sand.
Then we went to Barrio Logan and Ben Hueso (community activist) took us door to door of known voters in the area for 4 hours.
Nice day all in all.
Hope you all have a good weekend.
October 20
About a week ago a number of my friends in La Jolla called to ask for more yard signs because their signs had been removed from their yard -- often within hours of putting it up. Another friend of mine had put up a sign at Costco on Moreno and had used tie straps to attach it and it was cut down within hours. Last night I returned home, and my wife told me that a friend of mine was in the Sports Arena area and saw a man get out of his car and remove a yard sign of mine. He yelled at the man and he got in his car and ran off.
This morning I awoke to find not only my yard sign gone, but also at least 10 signs in my neighborhood removed (and that's just with a short cursory look). deBeck signs are up across the street from some of the places where my signs were removed, and Faulkenor signs were removed from some, but not others.
These are large signs and with so many removed all over the area it is not some isolated incident of pranksters -- especially when deBeck signs are still up across the street, including across from my own home (retired shop teacher and full-time horses ass).

Carlton on Roy Oswalt: 'You couldn't have asked for a better acquisition'
Catch SportsDay On Air twice per week on Fox Sports Southwest, when Dallas Morning News experts discuss hot sports topics from the Cowboys,Mavericks, Stars, Rangers and colleges (check ourTV listings for air times). Here are a few highlights from Monday's episode featuring Eddie Sefko and Chuck Carlton:
On Roy Oswalt's first start:
Carlton: "You couldn't have asked for a better acquisition than the Rangers got in Oswalt. The thing about it is, he doesn't have to be the guy that we saw five years ago. He doesn't have to be in Cy Young contention. He just has to be that steady influence on this staff, and I think it's tailor made for him."
Sefko: "What I liked was that Oswalt went out and threw 110 pitches and 81 were strikes. That's an outrageous strike ratio. That's the kind of thing they need out of him. They don't need superstardom. They just need good, solid pitching. Eat up the innings. Eat up the wins."

Media Release: SANParks supports World Rhino Day
20 September 2012
According to Acting Head of Communications SANParks, Paul Daphne, "World Rhino Day is an opportunity to highlight the efforts being made to fight the scourge of rhino poaching around the world and to debunk the myths and reduce the demand for rhino horn." Daphne said the current rhino poaching statistics for the Kruger National Park (KNP) stand at 241 for this year. "It is indeed worrying that we are still losing such a high number of rhinos but the increasing number of successful arrests and steeper sentences such as the combined 58 years imprisonment imposed on two suspected rhino poachers recently is encouraging." The KNP has arrested 49 suspected poachers this year. This is not only thanks to the increased cooperation from ordinary members of the public but from corporate South Africa joining the fight against rhino poaching. We hope this will result in successful investigations, effect more arrests and ultimately realise more successful convictions of the perpetrators.
At the recent 702 Walk the Talk and the Jacaranda FM Spring Walk, SANParks decided to Walk for Rhino's, a campaign to create awareness for the plight our country's rhino and to encourage zero tolerance towards rhino poaching, to stop the killing of our national heritage. Daphne says, "Rhino poaching is a crime that is undoubtedly fuelled by a thriving black market trade in rhino horn. The community needs to take part in anti-rhino poaching initiatives. We need to go out there and expose these selfish people who are undermining our country. They live in our neighbourhoods and they should be identifiable through their lifestyles."
Society cannot stand by and watch helplessly as international criminals declare war on our nation. We all need to defend our heritage with everything we have. Stand together with SANParks to stop the killing.

Wish you were here: 'Postcards from Mars,' signed, Spirit and Opportunity
By Lauren Gold |
"Postcards from Mars," the story of the Mars rover mission told in stunningly beautiful images with text by Jim Bell, Pancam lead scientist and Cornell associate professor of astronomy, is set for release on Nov. 16. The Pancam is the Cornell University-developed, mast-mounted panoramic camera on board the rovers Spirit and Opportunity. It has provided the clearest, most-detailed Martian landscapes ever viewed. To order "Postcards from Mars," go to http://www.postcardsfrommarsbook.com.
Meanwhile, back on the red planet, both rovers are still hard at work.
Spirit, now hunkered down for the winter on a low ridge in Gusev Crater, is operating on just 330 watt-hours per Martian day (compared with about 900 last summer) -- but still performing detailed stratigraphy and remote sensing work, as well as sending back a 360-degree panorama of its surroundings. "The nice characteristic [of being parked] is being able to plan ahead," says Steve Squyres, principal investigator for the NASA/JPL mission and Cornell Goldwin Smith Professor of Astronomy. "It's a wonderful luxury. While we're here, we're trying to take full advantage of being stationary. There's a whole category of things this payload is capable of that we've never done. We're doing a whole new category of science."
On the other side of the planet, Opportunity is still chugging south toward Victoria Crater (after a successful extraction from a dune called Jammerbugt). And both rovers are getting software upgrades that will allow them to identify images of dust devils and to do a maneuver called "go and touch": driving to an interesting target and releasing an instrument deployment device in one command cycle, instead of two.
Here's a look at some of the images the rovers have sent back during their more than 1,700 combined Martian days on the planet . . .

LETTER: 'White-hot purifying force of the truth'
To the Editor:
I firmly believe that the most powerful right guaranteed to us by the Constitution is the freedom of speech. I think this freedom is even more powerful than the right granted by the Second Amendment to bear arms, because the freedom of speech grants "we the people" the opportunity to expose corruption by delivering the white-hot purifying force of the truth, which is more effective than any type, or caliber, of weapon because there are no "friendly fire casualties" with the truth as it effectively differentiates good from evil.
To see how powerful the truth is, one only needs to observe the petty actions of South Dakota House Speaker Val Rausch in response to questions about his behavior raised by Rep. Stace Nelson, of Fulton. As unfortunate as this is, it really shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that Speaker Rausch and the ruling elite in Pierre have resorted to various disciplinary actions against Rep. Nelson, given the fact that since the truth is not on their side, such reprisals are their only recourse. The only way self-serving, self-righteous elite can deal with honorable individuals who speak the truth is to take any measure at their disposal to silence them. To verify this, one only needs to look into the Gospels and review how the members of the Sanhedrin dealt with Jesus.
Since Speaker Rausch has refused to let the voice of Nelson, and therefore his legislative district, be heard in the state assembly, the most effective retaliatory action that the people of this district have against Speaker Rausch is to rehire Rep. Nelson to work for them in Pierre again next November.

Thread: First Shave With Shavette - Review
First Shave With Shavette - Review
There's been a lot of interest here about the Dovo Shavette, I just got one yesterday (great deal on a lightly used one) and used it this morning so thought I would write a mini-review/first impression.
For reference, I shave with all types of razors - straights (everything from 5/8 full hollows to a Chandler 8/8+ wedge - I prefer heavier straights generally), DEs, injectors, cartridge razors (I can hear the collective "GASP" from all you die-hards!), and have a Feather AC that I use with the super-pro blades.
Onto the review:
1) Weight - lighther than a Feather AC, but heavier than plastic-handled shavettes/shavette-style razors.
2) Quality - Seems good, if utilitarian - the "scales" are stamped metal and seem durable, but nothing to write home about.
3) Ergonomics - feels good in the hand, nicely balanced, some thumb jimps that help a little, but not much, the razor is very manoeverable.
4) Blade Holder - this is the only component that I think could cause problems - its basically a hinged sleeve of red plastic with some tabs to hold the 1/2 DE blade in place. This is less durable than the integral sliding metal sleeves I've seen in other shavette-style razors and I'm surprised Dovo would use this sort of thing in its products. However, I haven't heard any specific criticisms of this, but it just seems less durable (ie., plastic hinge breaking, wear possibly resulting in a loose fit, etc. However, if you get a couple of years out of one, that's not so bad for something that costs just a couple of bucks
My razor (again, bought used) left some slight gaps in the holder when inserted into the handle, but this was easily fixed by LIGHTLY crimping the edge of the holder (if you do this, cover the holder with a dishtowel or other soft material to prevent scratching the finish on the crome. With this done, the tolerances were closed up and everything fit as it should.
I used a 1/2 Feather for my shave and breaking a DE is a piece of cake (you simply bend the still-wrapped DE blade in half until it snaps - if you can't manage to break a DE in half, put it into the holder and get the loaded holder into the handle without cutting yourself, you have no business using a straight!
The Shave:
The one thing I noticed right away was that the blade holder actually acts as a bit of a guard that prevents the leading corner of the blade from cutting you - this is actually a nice feature as its the leading corner that you're most likely to nick yourself with (think of a very sharp spike).
The stainless version has more weight than other shavette-style razors I've used and this makes for a light, but balanced razor (but much lighter than the Feather AC).
The DE is a little shorter than the Feather blades, while this resultes in a few more strokes, its not a big deal. People use DE's all the time and this isn't a reason not to use one of these razors with the 1/2 DE.
The Shavette is so light and agile, I found myself shaving a little more quickly than I would with a straight or Feather, this resulted in a little bit of razor burn, so I would advise you to make sure you keep it nice and slow. Also, the Feather blades are every bit as sharp as the blades used in the Feather straights, so the same caution applies here (note - I'm not a huge fan of the Feather DE blades as I find them a litte to sharp and will have to try the Shavette out with a Derby, which I find to be the best blade for me).
As I said, the Shavette is quite light (think 4/8 full-hollow), so the mass of the razor doesn't help get throught the tough spots - as someone used to wedgier straights, this resulted in me using a little more pressure than I would normally, which also contributed to the slight case of burn I got. So the lesson here is that you still need to use a light touch - espeicially since (for most of us) a DE is sharper than our straights - espeicially the first couple of shaves.
You get much more feedback than you do with the Feather AC, which I think has similar characteristics to a heavier/wedgier straight.
Bottom line, I got a nice smooth shave with a couple of nicks and a little razor burn. The same thing happened when I used my Feather AC the first couple of times and I think that with proper blade selection and practice, the Shavette is something I will use occasionally - especially when I'm in a rush and/or don't feel like stropping.
So, overall here are my conclusions:
1) The Dovo stainless Shavette, while very different than the Feather AC, rivals the Feather in terms of performance and ease of use.
There is no doubt, that with practices and good blade selection, you can get great results with the Shavette - many people have gotten awesome barber shop shaves with these things, which supports the view that these are good shaving tools.
2) The Shavette would make an ideal travel razor (I don't care what anyone says, I'm not packing a straight and strop for an overnight trip - also if you want to travel carry-on only, a straight or Feather isn't an option) for the following reasons:
a) its cheap, so if something happens to it, you're not out too much coin;
b) you can get decent DE blades almost anywhere - which means that you can take the Shavette (unloaded) in your carry-on and pick up a pack of blades at your destination - which is not possible with the Feather.
If you do want to use a Shavette as a travel razor, you should use it occasionally at home to get comfortable with it and should try it with the sort of blades you're likely to be able to find on the road. Its pretty risky to get used to the Shavette with a Feather/Derby/IP or other specialty blade and then use a CVS blade in your hotel room before the big meeting.
3) The Shavette would be as good a way as any for someone to see whether straight shaving is for them. Except for the fact that there's no Pro-guard blade option which there is for the Feather, the Shavette is an affordable, easy to use, effective straight.
In fact I think it would be better than a Feather because its lighter and you get better feedback with the Shavette. The Feather is quite heavy and you often don't realize you've cut yourself until after the fact, with the Shavette, you get a little more advance warning that things may be going off of the rails.
Also, the fact that the holder guards the leading corner is a big advantage over other shavette-style razors and, to a lesser extent, even the Feather AC (the blades for which are slightly rounded at the corners).
Also, the Shavette is much cheaper than the Feather AC, as are the blades. Also for DE users, the Shavette is a more "logical" step to straights, as they have tons of DE blades hanging around - further lowing the cost of experimentation.
Overall, I give the Shavette a "thumbs up" and think that people considering "going straight" via a disposable razor should include the Dovo stainless Shavette as an alternative to the Feather AC.
Wow... what an excellent review. That answers a lot of questions... Now I'm really looking forward to receiving mine from grunion. Thanks for the review!!!

I'd like to add that you can buy the black blade holder which holds longer single-edged blades (I use Fromm Hair Shaper #106). The blades last quite a few shaves, I've gotten at least 10 from the current blade and my beard's pretty thick. I tell you I think shavettes benefit from a slightly dulled blade compared to a brand new one. They cut into skin awful easy.
Also, razor burn is more likely with any DE or single blade compared to a straight, I find. The straights may not be quite as sharp, but they're easier on the face, IMO.
I would prefer a slightly thinner blade holder, as I normally like to put the straight against my face at a lower angle for the first pass.
Overall I do like mine, too.

Utility Air Regulatory Group v. Environmental Protection Agency - Post-Argument SCOTUScast
SCOTUScast 2-26-14 featuring Robert Gasaway
On February 24, 2014, the Supreme Court heard oral argument for several anticipated greenhouse gas cases, including Utility Air Regulatory Group v. Environmental Protection Agency. The question in this case is whether the EPA permissibly determined that its regulation of greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles triggered permitting requirements under the Clean Air Act for stationary sources that emit greenhouse gases.
To discuss these cases, we have Robert R. Gasaway, who is a partner at the law firm Kirkland & Ellis LLP.

"You really have two options; to live or to die, and you never know what is going to happen. So would you rather talk your way out of a conflict, and have one or two people look at you as a punk, or would you like to live, to accomplish different things in life, to live really good, to be happy and enjoy life? Because conflict has so many different consequences, it can either be tiny or it can be very big."
--Tajae Gaynor, youth activist for peace
Tajae Gaynor held a close friend who died in his arms from a stab wound after a meaningless conflict. The experience transformed the young man from the Bronx, and now he devotes his life to educating urban youth about the alternatives to violence. In this unique half-hour, David Freudberg probes this young man for answers that many twice his age would be hard-pressed to give. Listen to Tajae Gaynor as he expounds about the significance of the Columbine tragedy, why street life can be transcended, and how we are all responsible for creating bonds of tranquility in a world that often thrives on calamity.

Her fame has spread throughout Aleppo. Her comrades have nicknamed her Guevara, but to many residents she is known simply as "the female sniper."
Standing stock still, her finger suspended over the trigger, she stares through the sight of her Dragonov rifle.
Her view framed by the jagged concrete edges of the fist-sized hole cut into the wall of her hideout on one of the most dangerous front lines in Aleppo, Guevara, named after the revolutionary, watches the enemy — government soldiers — moving along the other side of the street.
"I like fighting. When I see that one of my friends in my katiba [rebel division] has been killed, I feel that I have to hold a weapon and take my revenge," she says.
Dressed in green khaki pants, a grey sweater dress, tight-fitting hijab and a camouflage combat jacket, the 36-year-old woman cleans and loads her gun, sitting in a half-demolished building.
Despite the war, her eyebrows are perfectly plucked, and she wears blusher and a little eyeliner, small leather boots with heels and a gold bracelet.
A female fighter in Syria's conservative Muslim society is rare, often considered improper. But she commands the respect of her fellow fighters, about 30 men and boys, some as young as 16.
It is not easy to be a sniper, she explains. "You have to be quick, careful and smart not to let them shoot you. And you need to be patient. I wait for hours at a time."
Through her peephole, she sees soldiers less than 200 metres away, mingling with civilians who continue their livelihoods despite the war.
"The civilians go home in the late afternoon. When the streets clear it is a very good chance to shoot the soldiers. I think I have killed soldiers. You can never be 100% sure that they are dead, but I have hit them at least four or five times."
Her tone is dogmatic, almost fanatical: "It makes you feel good. Whenever I hit one I shout, 'Yes!' "
The former teacher of English had a boy and girl aged seven and 10, but they were killed in an airstrike that demolished their home months ago.
"My boy used to be frightened of the bombs, and ask me what was happening. I said, 'I promise that I am going to defend your future'. Now, I will not forget my children's blood and I promise to take revenge."
A Syrian of Palestinian origin, Ms. Guevara learned to fire a gun in Lebanon in a military training camp run by the Palestinian militant faction Hamas.
In Syria, she has long fought for her cause.
"When I was a student in Aleppo University — years before the uprising began — we created an underground opposition newspaper," she said.
"We formed a political party for Palestinians and held secret, underground meetings to discuss how to overthrow Bashar al-Assad's regime."
They took part in the protests that began in March 2011, bought video cameras and filmed the suppression.
She left her first husband for not being sufficiently "revolutionary." When her second, the commander of her brigade, refused to let her fight with him on the front line, she threatened to leave him too.
"I said, 'I have the strength to hold a gun, so why can't I fight?' "
He trained her in the art of sniping.
At night sometimes, she admitted, she wakes up crying, at personal loss and the horrors she has witnessed.
"I have seen more than 100 bodies in the last few months. So many people were killed in shelling and air strikes. And I have had many near misses. Once a bomb exploded nearby, wounding people who I was with in a car and I thought, 'Oh my God, death is near.' "

Stocks closed down five percent today alone. U.S. stocks have now declined eight of the last nine trading days, losing over $1.8 trillion. Stocks declined in May, June, and July. So far August worse than the three previous months combined. Let's look at the media's explanation and give it a smell test. Then I'll frame it differently for an explanation far more likely to be valid and actually make you some money.
Media madness
The world remained fixated on the August 2nd grease fire that was the potential US default. I was as well. As the date drew nearer, the market declined, losing 4.1percent alone last week, while Congress doubled-down on the partisanship and seemed hopelessly deadlocked. The media attributed the stock decline to the possible default.
Suddenly, over the weekend, a compromise was struck to avoid the default. Instead of stocks surging, they declined faster. The media, which has an explanation for everything, offered three reasons for the further decline, which were:
- Manufacturing numbers were disappointing.
- Personal spending was down.
- The size of the bill passed was too small.
The impact of a US default could have been catastrophic. The relief from avoiding it far outweighs disappointing manufacturing and spending numbers. Thus, I'm not buying the media's explanation.
The real reason
To examine why the market declined, we need to frame the situation differently and over longer periods of time. Let's step back a few years.
On October 9, 2007, irrational exuberance ruled as the market hit an all time high. The tide of reality rushed in swiftly during 2008 and early 2009. Then came the great stock market recovery. By the end of April this year, US stocks were within 2 percent of the 2007 stock market high, as measured by the total return of the Wilshire 5000.
I was quite nervous that stocks were back to where they were when the paradigm that real estate could never decline ruled, or when Lehman Brothers and AIG were viewed as brilliant conservative institutions. I wrote about 5 reasons stocks may be overvalued.
So in the context of stocks being down 13 percent since April 30, maybe it has little to do with the Congress bickering or economic numbers being disappointing. Perhaps it has more to do with a pull back from the 119 percent surge since the 2009 market bottom.
My advice
I'll fess up that I'm using hindsight and my explanation may not be the real reason either. The stock market is a complex organism that we all want to understand. Unfortunately, believing we understand it, let alone that we can predict it, is a costly delusion.
I have reduced my equity positions a bit this year to rebalance. I suspect I sold my equities to the same people I bought them from after the plunge, when stocks were on sale and no one was buying. If they plunge again, I'll gladly buy them back. I love "Hurt's So Good" investing!
A comment was made on my previous piece on "Stocks losing 7 percent in 7 days" predicting that the coming plunge will make 1929 and 2008 look like a minor correction. Oddly enough, this comment was rather comforting because the last time I heard this sort of pessimism, markets more than doubled.
So try to ignore the media and market gurus. Like the rest of us, they're merely grasping for any news that might possibly explain why the market did what it did that day.

Exeter Chiefs end season in style with comfortable Newcastle Falcons win
Newcastle 13 Exeter 23
Exeter Chiefs ended a mixed season on a high after cruising to a comfortable 23-13 win over Newcastle Falcons at Kingston Park.
The win allowed the LV= Cup winners to clinch eighth place in the Aviva Premiership, but sees them miss out on a place in next season's elite European competition. Despite the loss, Newcastle can look back on their first campaign in back the top fligth with fond memories as they avoided relegation.
Newcastle made a bright start with Sinoti Sinoti and Alex Tait making penetrating runs which eventually led to tackles being penalised. Joel Hodgson knocked over both in the third and seventh minutes for a 6-0 lead.
But Exeter's well-organised line-out drive made it look easy for Luke Cowan-Dickie, the hooker, to…

SACRAMENTO - Caltrans has advised drivers to prepare for delays of up to an hour during the Fix50 construction project beginning April 22 along the downtown Sacramento portion of Highway 50. It may therefore be beneficial for commuters to seek out alternate routes to circumvent the mass of machinery crawling through downtown Sacramento during the projected two-month project.
Following are maps and two lists of alternate routes for the eastbound and westbound phases of construction provided by the Fix50 website.
ALTERNATE ROUTES DURING WESTBOUND CONSTRUCTION (May 27 through June 25)
If traveling from Rancho Cordova or Folsom to Downtown Sacramento, use Hwy. 50 West to Business-80 North to N or H St. off-ramps. Do not stay on Hwy. 50 West after Business-80 interchange
If traveling from Elk Grove or Galt to Downtown Sacramento, use I-5 North to J St. off-ramp. Do not take SR-99 North to Hwy 50 West.
If traveling from Rancho Cordova or Folsom to Natomas or Davis, use Hwy. 50 West to Business-80 North to Watt Ave. North, to I-80 West. Do not use Hwy. 50 West to Davis or Hwy. 50 West to I-5 North to Natomas.
If traveling through the project area during Phase 2 (Closed connector ramps from Business-80 to Hwy. 50 West), use Hornet Dr. (Howe/Power Inn exit) to turn around onto Hwy. 50 West.
Drivers traveling to the Lake Tahoe area can avoid the project area congestion by taking I-80 East

The law is mostly created to protect the large companies and

Bought 4 of the cashmere mix cardigans, good colour representation, good fit, soft to wear and not itchy. Compares well to cashmere at twice the price, will definately be buying more. excellent price for a lovely garment. Should have made sure I tried on all the cardigans before taking off the labels as one was a size bigger than the others although all labelled the same size, still a great garment. Firm edges to support buttons.

Have you ever had to buy a new piece of furniture to replace something you already had and the new piece just sticks out like a sore thumb? It looks like the stuff you've had and loved for years but it's "new" and "shiny" and just doesn't fit in?
How do you make it look like it's been loved over the years, too? Distressing furniture is a great way to get that "new" off of a piece of furniture. Sometimes you NEED a new book case but you want it to look like you've had it a while and make it fit in with the pieces you already have. Distressing is a good way to do that…and pretty therapeutic, too!
You can use just about anything for distressing furniture. Stain, screws, hammer, chains, nails, keys, etc. all work well as part of your arsenal. Oh! And crackle paint is a good one to have up your sleeve, too. Here's a couple of ideas for you to use when you need to "old" up a new piece of furniture.
The Simple Ways to Distress Your Furniture
There are lots of easy ways to make your furniture look like it's been around a while. You need a little arsenal of tools to do this. A hammer, some sand paper (different grits works best), a thin nail (wire nails work well), a wire brush, a bolt, etc.
The obvious place furniture first becomes "distressed" is any of those raised areas. That's where things bang in to it or it dings in to something when you've opened it. You can use your different grits of sand paper here to help a void creating a uniform pattern. Nothing screams "fake" like it all being the same! 😉 Rub some here and some there…more where your hand would naturally rub on the furniture.
Next you get to "beat" your furniture! This is the therapeutic part! 🙂 Use all the things you've gathered to create a wear and tear effect. Hit it at an angle with a chain. You can even create faux wormholes with the thin nail or you can use a small drill bit and drill them in…RANDOMLY…not uniformly. It'll look like you just drilled holes in if you do that.
Look at REAL wormholes first to get and idea of how they look & just copy that…somewhat. You can create scratches and deeper "grooves" in the wood surface using the wire brush. Then put some wormholes in the scratches and grooves.
Time to take the hammer to it and hit your furniture here and there…especially on edges that would normally get dinged up. Don't JUST do the edges but remember to hit them since that's where they'd naturally occur.
Now it's time for the finishing touches. Clean your furniture with a tack cloth and then apply some wood stain or Bri-Wax over the areas you just distressed. I really think Bri-Wax is the best for this type of finish. And I LOVE it for all kinds of things!! Anyway…Make sure you rub it in good in all those holes and marks. Wipe off any extra stain but make sure you also "leave" a little extra in the dents and grooves and holes…for that "old distressed" look.
If you use wood stain and not Bri-Wax, let the stain dry and then apply a good sealer over your furniture. I like MinWax Polycrylic because I can get it in different sheens. Flat/matte all the way up to glossy! This coat will protect your fun finish you just created.
Using Wax and Paint to Distress Your Furniture
You can use wax – in a multitude of forms – to distress your furniture and it's very easy to do! You just need wax! And by wax I mean an old candle or even some of those broken crayons from your child's crayon box. This is also the same way you'd create that rubbed or worn finish to a piece of furniture.
Of course we all know the key to any project is – PREP WORK! So you need sand your furniture first, clean it off, then you paint your furniture with a dark (or light – depending on the top coat) color paint. I've used a nice chocolate brown before with a cream top coat. But if your top coat is going to be dark…like BLACK…you want to use something lighter underneath.
I've even used various colors in my base coat so different areas show different colors. That gives me the look of ages showing through. Like the furniture was first painted yellow then blue then red…and those colors are showing through at different rates of "wear and tear".
After your "base coat" has dried you just need to take the candle and rub it along the areas you want to show through. For that worn "distressed" lovingly used look you'd want to rub the edges and some of the raised areas of the furniture since that's where your furniture would have been "worn" over time. Now you can paint the entire surface area with a top coat of paint. This layer won't stick to any area that you rubbed with wax.
After your paint is dry, take a sponge or a rag and rub some wood stain (or BriWax!) over the furniture and make sure you let it get in to all those cracks and crevices. Don't give it a nice "even" finish. That won't look "old". Give it an uneven coat of stain and then let it dry.
Once your stain dries it's time to get rid of that wax…if you want. You don't have to…I've always just left it there, but I use a "clear" or white wax candle. If you want to get the wax off, it's actually easy. You can lay down some paper towels then some old newspaper and then cover the newspaper with a paper towel (this one keeps your iron clean) and simply iron the areas that you rubbed the wax on. The wax melts and is absorbed by the newspaper. TA-DA!
Now you have a distressed piece of furniture that looks old and loved and is ready to be used. 🙂 If it still looks toooo new to you try rubbing over the whole piece with a piece of steel wool, then clean it off and paint over the whole thing with a nice flat coat of Minwax's Polycrylic.

Now go get those chains and nuts and bolts and stuff and have some fun!!
P.S. Check this out! I found this great book that has all kinds of wonderful tips and ideas about distressing furniture in it for you. It talks about crackling, distressing and antiquing your furniture or your found objects! 😉

Egyptians Shun Strikes on Anniversary of Mubarak Ouster
Protesters, mainly university students, have called for collective acts of civil disobedience to pressure the military to speed up the transfer of power.
CAIRO - There was a disappointing turnout for a national strike in Egypt on Saturday, reflecting divisions on the best way to respond to the country's unpopular military rulers. The strike had been called by opposition groups on the first anniversary of President Hosni Mubarak's removal from power.
Public buses and trains were operating normally across Cairo, despite announcements by subway workers that they were staging a slowdown strike.
Navigation was also as normal in the Suez Canal, despite calls by activists for waterway workers to join the strike.
Public sector workers, for their part, pledged to work extra hours, signaling their disagreement with the strike, according to media reports.
The protesters, mainly university students, have called for collective acts of civil disobedience to pressure the military to speed up the transfer of power.
However, only about 200 people gathered in Tahrir Square, the now iconic scene of major anti-Mubarak protests last year.
"I am on strike because Mubarak's regime is not gone, nothing has changed. Members of the [military] council are Mubarak's loyalists," said Mohamed, a university student.
Planning and International Cooperation Minister Fayza Abul-Naga said the low turnout showed that "Egyptians from all sectors rejected the call for civil disobedience."
Muslim and Coptic religious figures have condemned the strike, and the powerful Muslim Brotherhood group, which controls nearly half of the newly elected parliament, said it would not take part in any action that would hurt the economy.
However, undeterred activists said they would continue with the strike, adding that its effects would become visible over the next days.
Security sources said they had detained an Australian journalist and a U.S. student accused of paying people to take part in a strike by opposition groups.

A recent ruling in Brown v. Tellermate Holdings, Ltd. should serve as an excellent reminder that businesses using cloud computing (and their attorneys) are expected to understand the way cloud computing works, especially during e-discovery.
This became abundantly clear, according to a recent Bizlitnews blog posting, when the plaintiffs requested that Tellermate produce documents from the cloud-based application salesforce.com. Tellermate objected, stating that it didn't possess or control the data maintained in the cloud database and that the data belonged to salesforce. Apparently Tellermate and its attorneys failed to check their agreement with salesforce.com, which clearly stated that Tellermate had access to the data and, in fact, retained ownership of the data.
The court not only denied Tellermate's objection, it went on to question whether the data had been properly preserved. It turned out that when an employee separated from the company, Tellermate deactivated or reassigned the database access account. That meant the data input by the plaintiffs had remained accessible and could have been changed by the next employee who took over their account. Thus the reliability of the information that could be produced could not be guaranteed.
The message should be loud and clear: ownership of and responsibility for preservation of data stored in the cloud is the responsibility of the customer. This holds true regardless of the software application.
"Technology, like cloud-based computing, can be a valuable resource, but it is important to understand its intricacies in order to prevent misrepresentations to the court," concluded attorney Matthew Barley in a posting on the Butler Snow LLP blog. "As the court in Tellermate noted, both the failure to produce and failure to preserve the information in salesforce.com was 'premised on the basic inability to appreciate whose information it was and who controlled it.'"

Just bought my first LCD HDTV, it was refurbished(What? It was over $140 LESS than buying new! As long as it worked....).
Tv works/looks perfectly fine except for a tiny little red dot near the middle of the screen.
I believe I've heard of various ways other people were able to fix this, but don't know any as i've never had this problem before(only other LCD display i own is my laptop screen).
Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

probably not, as it may be the reason it was returned in the first place. if they sent it out again with a dead pixel as a refurb, you are most likely stuck with it.
if you google fix dead pixel and try the "fixes" and they don't work.... you saved some cash in exchange for a defective screen.
return the LCD TV if you're able to. just my 2 cents!
you can try massaging it...but it often doesn't work
Although dead pixels on LCD monitors are now rare, they're still occasionally there especially on no-name ones. Any brand have policies on how many dead pixels have to be present before some warranty period is up then it considers them defective. This has to be noted because often, when even minutely inspecting an LCD monitor at the moment of sale with no obvious dead pixels, that doesn't guarantee it will remain that way when hauled home and used for a specified period.For the nth time, with the possible exception of certain Intel processors, I don't have/ever owned anything whose name starts with "i".
I FIXED it!!!! :P :P
I looked up various sites and tried some stuff but it did not work. Finally i did the screen thingy here:
However after leaving that gif over the spot where the stuck pixel was for about 6 hours, NOTHING happened. In the end, i tried positioning it back over the spot where the stuck Red pixel was, and pressing the area a bit hard with my thumb(not TOO hard), and then removing it.
And it went away! Yay. Something about the liquid in the LCD display not getting around to every pixel, and by putting that square animated gif to "stimulate" the pixel area+pressing down with my thumb & removing, got it to function right.
Not sure but i guess thats the gist of it. Anyway the tiny red dot area, which was a stuck red colored pixel by the way and not a dead pixel, is now gone and the screen appears to be functioning properly.
This was a refurbished, Polaroid 19" LCD HDTV for $200, bought from this site:
The same Tv would've cost me about $330 at my local wal-mart, so i figured it was worth a try for the money saved. As long as it continues to work fine from now on!

Year-Round Coastal Cleanups (YRCC) in Singapore
A coastal cleanup can be conducted at any time of the year.
Such a cleanup can be conducted at virtually any time by any group of any size, who organise themselves independently. These cleanup sessions are different from the International Coastal Cleanup in September in that they:
General advice for organising a cleanup
There are four types of beaches/coastlines (categories A-D) you can tackle and they are listed below; in increasing order of difficulty.
Category A: Recreational beach (safe, easy, near recreational facilities, register with NEA or PHC; minimum two weeks notice required)
These beaches are cleaned once or twice daily but trash washes up daily. Some trash items are small and persistent like styrofoam bits and cigarette butts. A cleanup conducted at these sites are a good introductory eye opener to the issue of marine trash for participants. The sites listed below can take between 30 to over 200 volunteers.
Do register for your cleanup site one month in advance through the National Environment Agency (NEA) or Public Hygiene Council (PHC) who coordinate registration for independent beach cleanups at these four sites:
The links to the NEA/PHC registration site are:
Although these are hospitable beaches, a recce is still important.
Feel free to refer to our recce reports to help you prepare for your recce.
Category B: Non-recreational beach (requires recce, meaningful, sites are large; minimum six weeks notice)
These sites are State Land sites which are not used by the public and are usually out of sight and without public facilities. Infrequently cleared, the marine life there will benefit from a coastal cleanup. The sites can take between 40-120 volunteers but will require a lot more preparation. Note that:
Site suggestions (check tide level for your preferred date):
Check tidal levels as you have to conduct the cleanup during a low tide. See Mobile Geographics: Sembawang Tides:
Category C: Pulau Ubin beaches (transport costly, meaningful, interesting location; minimum six weeks notice; work with NParks)
Pulau Ubin is a unique place to hold a cleanup and needs the help. It will require more preparation and will cost more for transport. The island is worth a post-cleanup tour and has a rustic atmosphere.

Check tidal levels as you have to conduct the cleanup during a low tide. See Mobile Geographics: Sembawang Tides:
Category D: Mangrove (tough, eco warriors, lots of preparation, long-term commitment; minimum two months notice to help you get prepared and secure permissions)
Suitable for experienced or determined Organisers and the type of sites will depend on the skill, motivation, commitment and size of the group. Small groups are most suitable for work on these sites as the habitat needs to be treated sensitively. Appropriate footwear required.
We will advise groups interested in pursuing mangrove cleanups for the long-term. Consultation will be available at NUS.
Some of these sites require that we arrange for permission for access from Singapore Land Authority (SLA). Permission is required for recce too. We will apply to SLA for permission who will inform police.
