There's no possible way to answer this - it all depends on what you really want to know and how your application works
having x number of schemas does not relate to performance...
having 400 users doesn't mean anything...
(how many users are actually active at one time? how busy are they? how much work is the application doing?)

Whether the system 1 processor or 8 processors they don't know about or care about the number of schemas; whether 1 or 10000.
Asking about risk in relation to number of processsors or number of schemas is like me asking you, "which has more risk red or salt"?You can lead some folks to knowledge, but you can not make them think.
The average person thinks he's above average!
For most folks, they don't know, what they don't know.
Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement.

Kiwis dominate Day One
New Zealand were 250 for one at stumps with Fulton unbeaten on 124 and Kane Williamson 83 not out after a frustrating day for England's bowlers.
England skipper Alastair Cook was punished after winning the toss and making New Zealand bat on a drop-in Auckland wicket that was expected to offer his attack more pace and bounce than the lifeless pitches in Dunedin and Wellington.
Black Caps skipper Brendon McCullum said it was "judgement day" for his batting line-up after they were put in for the first time this series — and they came through with flying colours.
Eden Park proved another flat track that harboured no demons, allowing them to dominate, with England's only wicket for the day coming from a rash shot by Hamish Rutherford (37) just before lunch.

World number one Angelique Kerber advanced to the Wimbledon third round for the fourth straight year on Thursday, defeating Kirsten Flipkens of Belgium 7-5, 7-5.
Kerber will play American Shelby Rogers next. Rogers came back to beat Lucie Safarova 6-7(4), 6-4, 6-3.
Unfortunately, the biggest story of the day came from Safarova's doubles partner, American Bethanie Mattek-Sands. She suffered a horrific knee injury during her match against Sorana Cirstea, and required a stretcher to get off the court.
"Yea, her knee was in a very weird position," said Cirstea, who hopped across the net as soon as it happened to check on Mattek-Sands who was screaming in pain. "I've never seen anything like this probably except in the movies."
Cirstea will play 14th seed Garbine Muguruza, who knocked off Yanina Wickmayer 6-2, 6-4.
The upset of the day came from Magdalena Rybarikova, who came back from a set down to beat third-seed Karolina Pliskova 3-6, 7-5, 6-2.
"It's obviously an amazing feeling for me, and I'm so happy," said Rybarikova. "It's tough to describe. I beat someone who is No. 3 in the world right now…on the Centre Court at Wimbledon. Nothing could be better. I'm very pleased and very happy."
Rybarikova will take on Ukraine's Lesia Tsurenko next. She knocked off Viktorija Golubic 6-1, 6-2, 6-3 in her match Thursday.
American Alison Riske upset 12th seeded Kristina Mladenovic, coming back from a set down to win 2-6, 6-4, 6-4 to reach the third round. She will take on 24th seed Coco Vandeweghe in an all-American matchup. Vandeweghe defeated Tatjana Maria 6-4, 6-2 in her match Thursday.
Ninth-seed Agnieszka Radwanska survived a scare against American Christina McHale, fighting back from a set down to advance with a 5-7, 7-6(7), 6-3 victory. She will play 19th seed Timea Bacsinszky next.
Fifth-seed Caroline Wozniacki was the day's final winner as she cruised past Tsvetana Pironkova 6-4, 6-3. Wozniacki draws Estonia's Anett Kontaveit in the third round.

Houston boasts the only year-round bat colony in Texas. Some 300,000 Mexican free-tailed bats make their home under the Waugh Drive Bridge, emerging each evening at dusk to fly into the night and devour around two and a half tons of insects. You want to see that at least once, and now you can make an evening of it with Bikes, Bats, and Brews. The adventure starts at the Market Square Park. Bring or rent a bike to take a two-wheeled trip down the Buffalo Bayou Hike Trail to the viewing platform near the bridge. From there, participants will watch the bats take flight as the sun goes down. Once the winged ones are on their way, you're invited to bike down to Brewery Tap and then La Carafe with the Bayou City Outdoors crew for a refreshing adult beverage. ''Best part of the ride is twofold: It's easy to meet lots of people while riding and chatting,'' said spokesperson Kelly Howard. ''Secondly, people aren't used to seeing Houston by bike. You see all kinds of things you would never notice in a car.''

Great value parking in Swansea
From market town to spa centre, port and copper production, Swansea has had a rich and varied past. It was even home to the very first passenger train service (from The Mumbles to Swansea centre), marking it out early on as a powerhouse for innovation and industry. Today, it's the second largest city in Wales and one of the country's most successful commercial, retail and tourism centres. It's a fantastic city for visitors and locals, which is why NCP offers four conveniently placed car parks right in the heart of Swansea.
Points of interest
Like many of Wales' coastal and strategically important towns and cities, Swansea is home to an early medieval castle. Much of old Swansea was demolished during the Second World War bombing blitzes, but older sections do remain along the predominantly Georgian and Victorian Wind Street, and the wonderfully named Salubrious Passage. Other points of interest include the Sir Frank Brangwyn's murals at Brangwyn Hall (originally destined for the House of Lords), and the Dylan Thomas Centre, celebrating the life and work of Wales' greatest modern writer. Use Swansea car parks at Kingsway, Orchard Street and City Gates for easy access to all of Swansea's central attractions.
Swansea Market
There has been a market on the same spot in Swansea for over 200 years, and today Swansea Indoor Market is the largest of its kind in Wales. It's packed with stalls selling everything from clothes and gifts through to specialist outlets selling Welsh delicacies such as laverbread, Welsh Black beef and Penclawdd cockles. Park at NCP's Kingsway or City Gates car parks in Swansea city centre and you're minutes away from the market.
Quadrant Shopping Centre
The Quadrant is one of the city's most popular indoor shopping centres and has outlets selling everything from high end jewellery to boutique clothes and shoes. It also has plenty of well known high street brands under one roof, making it a good retail destination during the Sales. Park at City Gates car park and you're a few minutes' walk away from the Centre.
Park Tawe Retail Park
This retail and leisure park has that 'out of town' feel but is only a few minutes from the centre of the city. Not content with just offering the usual selection of big brand stores, it also has a 10-screen cinema complex, a bowling alley, and even a large tropical plant house called the Plantasia. While there is onsite parking, it tends to fill up very quickly so make use of the nearby NCP Swansea car park at Orchard Street.
National Waterfront Museum
This excellent museum is exactly where you'd expect it to be; overlooking Swansea's busy Waterfront in the Maritime Quarter. It takes visitors on a journey through the Industrial Revolution, which shaped the city throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. It's very much a hands on museum, with working machinery and frequently updated exhibitions and events. Pre-book a parking space at Swansea City Gates car park and enjoy a family day out at one of Swansea's best museums.
Swansea Bay
Once the home of a thriving oyster industry, Swansea Bay is now lined with sandy beaches and is a popular destination for tourists, water sports lovers and fishermen. The bay offers a great respite from the fast pace of life in the city, and is well worth a visit. Park at the City Gates car park and walk down through the Maritime Quarter to Swansea beach, just five minutes from the city centre.
Maritime Quarter
Formerly known as the South Dock, Swansea's Maritime Quarter is now a busy marina filled with small boats and craft, and an extensive residential area. Many of the old warehouses have been repurposed and are now luxury homes or retail outlets, although the old façades have been maintained, giving the Quarter an eclectic feel. Pre-book a space at City Gates car park and spend a day exploring everything the Quarter has to offer.
Swansea Station
Swansea Station is one of Wales' busiest train stations, acting as a key gateway for thousands of commuters every day. NCP car parks in Swansea has a location right next to the station entrance, providing easy and convenient parking for commuters, with the option of purchasing a season ticket if you use the station on a regular basis.

They were one of America's favourite families in the late 1980s and '90s – with their affectionate bickering, everyday crises, growing pains and belly laughs beamed into more than 20 million homes in the US.
Now the Conners are coming back, more than 20 years after the last episode of Roseanne was aired.
This week, ABC announced that they'll be rebooting classic sitcom starring Roseanne Barr and John Goodman, with eight new episodes.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Sara Gilbert – who is currently a co-host of the CBS daytime show The Talk – spearheaded the revival.
Earlier this year, Gilbert had Goodman on the talk show as a guest and the two reprised their characters of Dan and Darlene Conner in a comedy bit.
Also returning will be Laurie Metcalf (Jackie), Michael Fishman (D.J.) and Lecy Goranson (Becky) are all set to return.
Sarah Chalke played the role of Becky after Goranson left the show. She will also return but in a different role.
Roseanne ran on ABC from 1998-97 and had several gay characters including Roseanne's friend Nancy (Sandra Bernhard) and her former boss Leon (Martin Mull) who married his boyfriend Scott (Fred Willard) in a 1995 episode.
A year earlier, Roseanne had visited a gay bar with Nancy and was kissed on the lips by guest star Mariel Hemingway.

Marketing On The Internet A Few Basic Techniques
I am not a "Beginner" to Online marketing! Yet I can help you understand about online marketing. I do not worry what the specific niche market will be or just how saturated it truly is. Almost always there is an alternative way regarding promoting a product or service. If you find it difficult to trust me then just take a look at every one of the large corporations on earth. Each will really have to transform their companies every so often. Let's not forget, not surprisingly they've got famous brands and also money to their edge, but if you make it possible for that idea to stop you, well then you shouldn't be using Internet Marketing to begin with.
Marketing takes work of course, if you don't wish to perform the task you'll not realize success! Put a stop to looking for an instant million because your chances are better from winning the actual lotto. And here is my genuine advice for a novice: Begin with a concept, generate a process around this concept, stay with it! Most of all, you must have faith that what you're really doing meets your needs.
Individuals are always worrying that they don't know the appropriate people or maybe they don't know the way to take action. I say, if you have that frame of mind you will not ever recognize nearly anything or even do anything! Select a goal, focus on this goal, find those who are serious about that item and market to these individuals. It is certainly that uncomplicated. The complete thought is basically that you start out somewhere, which isn't going to suggest wasting money and time for foolish marketing packages to attempt to grow to be a millionaire immediately. There's no such thing as a free ride. You have already the particular solutions inside of you, the problem is that you just really do not understand how to obtain them.

When the sky rips open somewhere over Dover, two objects hurtle out of the Vortex and crash-land in the sea. One is the TARDIS, out of control and freefalling - but the other, a mysterious crystalline sphere, is far more sinister. The Doctor and Donna are rescued and taken to a secret command centre in the Dover cliffs. It's May 1940, and Vice-Admiral Ramsey is about to finalise one of the most daring plans of the Second World War: Operation Dynamo.

Computer upgrades included in Smithtown library budget
The Smithtown Library's proposed 2016 budget reduces the use of reserves to balance the budget, slightly decreases spending and calls for replacing older computers with new models.
The tentative $14.1 million budget decreases spending by $213 over this year's $14.1 million budget. The average Smithtown home assessed at $6,000 would pay $320.09 in annual library taxes -- an estimated increase of $4.93 for the year.
Voting for the library budget, as well as for trustees John Martins and Suzanne Mohr, who are each running unopposed for three-year terms, will take place Tuesday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the library's four branches in Smithtown, Kings Park, Nesconset and Commack.
The library's planned tax levy of $13.4 million is about $162,000 more than this year's levy of roughly $13.2 million. The library stayed within the state tax cap.
Library treasurer Joanne Grove said the budget "minimizes our expenses and reduces our reliance on the fund balance, and still provides our patrons with the services they've come to expect."
The largest expense -- about $10.38 million -- was salaries and employee benefits. The staff includes 67 full-time and 87 part-time workers, Grove said. That's a decrease of about $90,000 from this year.
The library has offered incentives the past two years for employees to leave or retire early, Grove said, adding that 18 employees have done so. The budget also reduced expenses for telecommunications and outside service fees, accomplished by negotiating contracts and doing more in-house accounting, Grove said.
The budget calls for about $200,000 in online materials and services -- nearly $40,000 more than this year's budget -- to keep up with patron demand for items like downloadable books, said Grove. It also boosts spending by about $60,000 to $141,000 for equipment such as new computers, which must be replaced every few years, she said.

- Richard WilburThe Whole Universe is Plastic
- Zen Master Seung Sahn
One Sunday, while Seung Sahn Soen-sa was staying at the International Zen Center of New York, there was a big ceremony marking the end of one hundred days of chanting Kwanseum Bosal. Many Korean women came, with shopping bags full of food and presents. One woman brought a large bouquet of plastic flowers, which she presented smilingly to an American student of Soen-sa's. As soon as he could, the student hid the flowers under a pile of coats. But soon, another woman found them and, with the greatest delight, walked into the Dharma Room and put them in a vase on the altar.The student was very upset. He went to Soen-sa and said, "Those plastic flowers are awful. Can't I take them off the altar and dump them somewhere?'Soen-sa said, "It is your mind that is plastic. The whole universe is plastic."The student said, "What do you mean?"Soen-sa said, 'Buddha said, "When one mind is pure, the whole universe is pure; when one mind is tainted, the whole universe is tainted." Every day we meet people who are unhappy. When their minds are sad, everything that they see, hear, smell, taste, and touch is sad. The whole universe is sad. When the mind is happy, the whole universe is happy. If you desire something, then you are attached to it. If you reject it, you are just as attached to it. Being attached to a thing means that it becomes a hindrance in your mind. So "I don't like plastic" is the same as "I like plastic" -- both are attachments. You don't like plastic flowers, so your mind has become plastic, and the whole universe is plastic. Put it all down. Then you won't be hindered by anything. You won't care whether the flowers are plastic or real, whether they are on the altar or in the garbage pail. This is true freedom. A plastic flower is just a plastic flower. A real flower is just a real flower. You mustn't be attached to name and form."The student said, "But we are trying to make a beautiful Zen center here, for all people. How can I not care? Those flowers spoil the whole room."Soen-sa said, "If somebody gives real flowers to Buddha, Buddha is happy. If somebody else likes plastic flowers and gives them to Buddha, Buddha is also happy. Buddha is not attached to name and form, he doesn't care whether the flowers are real or plastic, he only cares about the person's mind. These women who are offering plastic flowers have very pure minds, and their action is Bodhisattva action. Your mind rejects plastic flowers, so you have separated the universe into good and bad, beautiful and ugly. So your action is not Bodhisattva action. Only keep Buddha's mind. Then you will have no hindrance. Real flowers are good; plastic flowers are good. This mind is like the great sea, into which all waters flow -- the Hudson River, the Charles River, the Yellow River, Chinese water, American water, clean water, dirty water, salt water, clear water. The sea doesn't say, "Your water is dirty, you can't flow into me." It accepts all waters and mixes them and all become sea. So if you keep the Buddha mind, your mind will be like the great sea. This is the great sea of enlightenment."

by A.H. Almaas (This guy is really worth a look)
from Diamond Heart, Book II
When your mind is free, not concerned, or worried, or focused on anything in particular, and your heart is not grasping or clinging to anything, then you are free. The most characteristic quality is that there is no fixation on anything; you're not focused on any issue or experience. Whatever is there, is there. So there is a freedom of mind. The mind is not saying, "I want this," or "I want to look at this," or "It has to be this way." The mind is loose. The expression "hang loose" tells us what it means to be liberated.
Allspirit NonDual Quotations
http://www.allspirit.co.uk/index.htmlposted to Wisdom-lphoto by Clay, posted to Nondual Art"Generally, everyone feels compassion, but the compassion is flawed. In what way? We measure it out. For instance, some feel compassion for human beings but not for animals and other types of sentient beings. Others feel compassion for animals and some other types of sentient beings but not for humans. Others, who feel compassion for human beings, feel compassion for the human beings of their own country but not for the human beings of other countries. Then, some feel compassion for their friends but not for anyone else. Thus, it seems that we draw a line somewhere. We feel compassion for those on one side of the line but not for those on the other side of the line. We feel compassion for one group but not for another. That is where our compassion is flawed. What did the Buddha say about that? It is not necessary to draw that line. Nor is it suitable. Everyone wants compassion, and we can extend our compassion to everyone."by Kenchen Thrangu Rinpocheposted by Bob O'Hearn
Suzuki on WeedsDogen said, Although everything has Buddha nature, we love flowers, and we do not care for weeds. This is true of human nature. But that we are attached to some beauty is itself Buddhas activity. That we do not care for weeds is also Buddhas activity. We should know that. If you know that, it is all right to attach to something. If it is Buddhas attachment, that is non-attachment. So in love there should be hate, or non-attachment. And in hate there should be love, or acceptance. Love and hate are one thing. We should not attach to love alone. We should accept hate. We should accept weeds, despite how we feel about them. If you do not care for them, do not love them; if you love them then love them.Usually you criticize yourself for being unfair to your surroundings; you criticize your unaccepting attitude. But there is a very subtle difference between the usual way of accepting and our way of accepting things, although they may seem exactly the same. We have been taught that there is no gap between nighttime and daytime, no gap between you and I. This means oneness. But we do not emphasize even oneness. If it is one, there is no need to emphasize one.Dogen said: To learn something is to know yourself; to study Buddhism is to study yourself. To learn something is not to acquire something which you did not know before. You know something before you learn it. There is no gap between the I before you know something, and the I after you know something. There is no gap between the ignorant and the wise. A foolish person is a wise person; a wise person is a foolish person. But usually we think, He is foolish and I am wise, or I was foolish, but now I am wise. How can we be wise if we are foolish? But the understanding transmitted from Buddha to us is that there is no difference whatsoever between the foolish man and the wise man. It is so. But if I say this people may think that I am emphasizing oneness. That is not so. We do not emphasize anything. All we want to do is to know things just as they are. If we know things, as they are, there is nothing to point at; there is no way to grasp anything; there is no thing to grasp. We cannot put emphasis on any point. Nevertheless, as Dogen said, A flower falls, even though we love it; and a weed grows, even though we do not love it. Even though it is so, this is our life.In this way our life should be understood. Then there is no problem. Because we put emphasis on some particular point, we always have trouble. We should accept things just as they are. This is how we understand everything, and how we live in this world. This kind of experience is something beyond our thinking. In the thinking realm there is a difference between oneness and variety; but in actual experience, variety and unity are the same. Because you create some idea of unity or variety, you are caught by the idea. And you have to continue the endless thinking, although actually there is no need to think.Emotionally we have many problems; they are something created; they are problems pointed out by our self-centered ideas or views. Because we point out something, there are problems. But actually it is not possible to point out anything in particular. Happiness is sorrow; sorrow is happiness. Even though the ways we feel are different, they are not really different; in essence they are the same. This is the true understanding; transmitted from Buddha to us.- Shunryu SuzukiZen Mind, Beginners Mindposted by Bob O'Hearn

Rodney Loar, who operated a Metairie insurance agency, admitted he took money from customers but didn't insure them. Loar's fraud came to light between 2000 and 2001, when A-First Metro Insurance Agency customers were involved in car accidents and subsequently learned they weren't insured. Loar pleaded guilty last week to theft and forgery charges. He was ordered to repay nearly $10,000 in fake premiums and to pay for the clients' auto damage.

Caroline Giuliani is most likely headed the way of Boy George and Naomi Campbell: donning gloves, a pale face mask, neon vest and work boots before commencing several hours of scrubbing, sweeping and tidying the messy corners of a Sanitation Department garage in Manhattan.
Such is the fate for many who are assigned court-ordered community service, where celebrity justice usually equates to the same humiliating, labor-intensive tasks that tens of thousands of other defendants are saddled with each year as punishment for their crimes.
But how and where a defendant performs community service depends on a variety of factors, not least of which is where the crime was committed.
What does not seem to matter is a defendant's fame — and requests for a particular form of community service are almost certain to be disregarded.
Ms. Giuliani, 21, the daughter of former Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani, agreed on Tuesday to a deal to have her shoplifting charge dismissed if she completes a day of community service and stays out of trouble for six months. Her request to do service of her own choosing was denied, and she will probably head to the same sanitation garage where Boy George and Ms. Campbell worked, beneath the South Street Viaduct beside the East River.Continue reading the main story
Boy George had offered to donate the proceeds of one of his concerts to the city instead of playing janitor for a day. That request also was denied.
"A defendant's name, occupation or level of notoriety won't make an assignment better, or make it worse," said Erin M. Duggan, the chief spokeswoman for the Manhattan district attorney's office.
In Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island, community service is usually assigned by the district attorney. In the Bronx, it is assigned by Bronx Community Solutions, which is overseen by the Center for Court Innovation, a nonprofit group.
In some of the city's specialized treatment courts, community service is often determined by concerns from residents, said Greg Berman, the director of the Center for Court Innovation.
After complaints about crack vials and graffiti in De Witt Clinton Park in Manhattan, and illegal dumping at a vacant lot in Red Hook, Brooklyn, the center sent defendants there, Mr. Berman said.
"We think of community service as an opportunity for someone to pay back their debt to society for the harm they committed," Mr. Berman said. "It's not supposed to be an exercise in public shaming, and it's not supposed to be an exercise in P.R."
Naturally, image makers may try to spin a celebrity's community service into a story of giving back, not of punishment for a crime. Eric Dezenhall, who does public relations crisis management for corporations and celebrities, said such attempts were futile. "It doesn't change the fact that your obit will still say, 'convicted of x, y, z crime,' " Mr. Dezenhall said.
Even if a celebrity is doing noble work, it will not overshadow the criminal matter, said Benjamin Brafman, a defense lawyer for many high-profile clients. "Everyone in the process knows this is part of a sentence," Mr. Brafman said, "so the humiliation factor is there even if the community service is a step up from picking up trash."
Some would rather skip community service altogether, Mr. Brafman said. "I've had clients who would rather spend three months in jail than spend 600 hours doing community service," he said. "In jail, they lounge around and watch television. Community service, they're working every day."
Indeed, of the 23,000 defendants who were sentenced to community service in Manhattan last year, 8,400 — 36.5 percent — did not complete it.
In Manhattan, the district attorney's office usually assigns defendants to do manual labor with the city parks, sanitation, transportation, correction or juvenile justice departments, or NYC Community Cleanup, which assigns low-level offenders to address neighborhood problems.
But defendants who are physically unable to perform manual labor will be assigned to office work like collating envelopes.
Prosecutors consider the defendant's schedule and the needs of the various agencies when determining where to assign someone, Ms. Duggan said. Defendants with prior convictions automatically do their service with the Correction Department.
Judges sometimes choose where a defendant will work. And sometimes, external circumstances dictate the assignment. Many years ago, the Sanitation Department said it needed extra people to clean the Van Wyck Expressway for a presidential visit. Prosecutors sent more defendants its way.Continue reading the main story

Circuit de la Sarthe
Team ORECA-Matmut: First goal reached for the #10 Peugeot 908 HDi FAP…
Nicolas Lapierre, Loïc Duval and Olivier Panis completed the free practice and first qualifying sessions in seventh position.
The Team ORECA-Matmut trio accomplished its first mission: prepare for the race while searching for the ideal setup…
After experiencing scrutineering under the rain, it's on a dry track that Team ORECA-Matmut began to practice for the 2011 24 Hours of Le Mans. The first day was comprised of a free practice (4 hours) and a first qualifying session (2 hours). Nicolas Lapierre, Loïc Duval and Olivier Panis took advantage of the track time to fine-tune the settings on their Peugeot 908 HDi FAP, which they had no trouble with on the Sarthe circuit.
For Team ORECA-Matmut, whether it be practice or qualifying, the mission was the same: prepare for the race, calmly and methodically. For this, the team is relying on their experience from last year and from earlier in the season. The three drivers, winners at the 12 Hours of Sebring in March, quickly found the car they know so well. "Right from the start, the car handled like it did at the Test Day," explains Loïc Duval. "The pace came naturally and I"m happy with the setup. The handling evolved between the two sessions: we need to start with a more neutral balance, but the first impression is positive. We are where we want to be, that"s to say between the factory cars and the "petrol" prototypes."
The same sentiment came from Olivier Panis, who, among other things, worked on long stints: "I"m very pleased with the car. We are particularly good in the third sector. We all ran very well, with good pace. I think we are in the right timing and this session confirms that we have an opportunity. The car is "quick" and easy to drive. It"s always a joy to drive here!"
After an interruption for a mechanical issue, the Team ORECA-Matmut started up at 10p.m. where they left off at 4p.m. Nicolas, Loïc and Olivier once again took turns at the controls during the first qualifying session, continuing their quest to find the best setup for the race. "Wednesday"s result corresponds perfectly to our objectives," says Hugues de Chaunac. "The goal is to have the best car for the race. We know what we can count on and the gap to the "official" 2011 prototypes is reasonable. We are following our program."
The #10 Peugeot 908 HDi FAP concludes its day in seventh position while the #8 Peugeot 908 of Sarrazin/Montagny/Minassian currently holds the provisional pole position over the three Audi R18s.

I'm not expecting perfect shari....but a decent selection of good quality fish is a must and real wasabi would be awesome (think Zen or Solo Sushi Ya in the GTA). I know its probably too much to hope for a place like that in London...but still if anyone has recommendations please send them my way! :)

Jim Carrey seen with new girlfriend on Malibu beach
Carrey was earlier dating 23-year-old Russian student Anastasia Vitkina. It was even rumoured earlier this year that the "Dumb and Dumber" star was planning to marry the Russian student.
Carrey and McCarthy split in 2010 after five years together, and McCarthy has said that her son, who has autism, still misses Carrey. "I've tried to ask Jim numerous times to see Evan, because my son still asks.
I tell Evan that someday you'll cross paths, meet again. It's hard. He's been in therapy. It's a process, he's working on it," she had said. Carrey had been largely single since splitting from long-term love McCarthy but was soon spotted on a date with 'America's Next Top Model' contestant Anchal Joseph, 24. His first marriage to Melissa Womer lasted seven years and the couple have a daughter Jane, now 23, who recently appeared on 'American Idol'.


text: Turkey has made key changes to the requirements for registration on its international ship register. The changes will make it simpler for both shipowners and financiers to take advantage of Turkish registration. Seyma Inal, senior partner at Istanbul-based Inal Law Office says, "The biggest change, published last week, is that ships no longer have to call at a Turkish port before they can be registered on the Turkish International Ship Registry. And the registration period for ships first registered abroad has been increased from six months to one year. Taken together, the changes make the Turkish International Register both simpler and more accessible to international shipping and its financiers." The amendment to the Turkish International Ship Registry Regulation was published in the Official Gazette on September 17, 2006 and came into force immediately.

This is with an added tweak or two. Any thoughts?
Thanks, Chicky
Your thoughts & critique
Primary tabs
This is with an added tweak or two. Any thoughts?
Quickly looking over this, I think the thing that bothers me most is that the date isn't aligned on a grid with the text next to it (the text encapsulating the date, if you will). I think making the whole a bit more aligned could make it look more airy and clean. Give the shapes some air, and you will also lend it a bit more legibility.
I agree with Sebastiaan - give your letters some air to float in. Also; the tower is lost in the background, and more letter space may help it. Did you try playing with the opacity of the yellow text to let the tower shine through? This may (?) give the effect of the letters being made of the moonlight ... especially if you added a subtle yellow "spotlight graphic" (flashlight triangle) hitting the back of the text (from the moon). Just a thought.
I would recommend you use a less tonally similar (to the background) colour for the II. You could maybe put the date in the save the date banner. The choice of a serif for the BRAC Center… text seems strange I would look at the sans style with tighter leading, using half line spacing to keep the three elements (The BRAC Center… in Paris II, date and time, and ticket information) separate. btw, You need a space between •Reserved Tables.
And a small but niggling thing that always grates on my nerves: it's "7 p.m." not "7 pm"
> it's "7 p.m." not "7 pm"
Admittedly I have no literature to hand backing this up, but I'm pretty sure it isn't a definitive universal standard. I'm sure a grand reputable book somewhere holds the answer. Perhaps a new thread beckons.
you got any other concepts?

The Founder and Leader of Muttahida Quami Movement (MQM) Mr Altaf Hussain has said that the election campaign was being run freely in the Punjab only while people in the remaining three provinces were not being allowed to run the campaign openly. They were being deprived of their constitutional, legal and democratic rights as extremist and terrorist groups had been given a license to kill the workers of liberal and enlightened political parties.
He said this while talking to the office-bearers, workers and election candidates of the MQM Upper Punjab and Central Punjab in Lahore and Rawalpindi on Friday.
Mr Hussain said that the people of Punjab would have to take notice of the critical situation. He asked who will be responsible if the people of the smaller provinces raised the slogan of separation for getting their democratic and constitutional rights. He warned that the caretaker government, the election commission, and those who do not give justice would be directly responsible if such a situation emerged.
He urged the educated, enlightened and moderate leaders, intellectuals, journalists, lawyers and members of the public to come forward for saving Pakistan. He asked them to save the voice of moderation, democracy and enlightened opinions from suffocating. He asked them to pull the country out of the prevailing crisis otherwise the general elections would not be free, fair and transparent.
Mr Hussain said that the brave and determined workers of the MQM continued to run the election campaign, although the Taliban spokesman had clearly threatened that they would not allow the MQM, the ANP and the PPP to run their election campaign. The Taliban also warned the general public not to go in the public meetings of these parties.
The Taliban killed an election candidate of the MQM in Hyderabad and later targeted several workers in Karachi. Now they were carrying out bomb blasts at the election offices of the MQM in order to create a wave of fear in the public.
Mr Hussain questioned the claims of the caretaker government, the election commission and law-enforcing agencies for providing security to the people during elections.
He said that the election campaign was being run in the Punjab alone and there also only the jihadist elements or those who had a soft corner for the jihadists were free to run their campaign.
He asked how the election could be called free and transparent when the enlightened and moderate parties were being stopped from taking part in the election process by force and threats.
He said that the sense of deprivation of the people of Sindh, Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was being heightened. If the situation did not improve people living in these provinces might be forced to raise the slogan of separation against this flagrant injustice.
Mr Hussain urged the people of Punjab not to remain silent and come out for saving Pakistan. He asked them to raise their voice of justice. We should take a lesson from the cessation of East Pakistan and not let the history to repeat itself.
He called on the caretaker government to give justice to all provinces and stop the usurpation of their constitutional and democratic rights.
He said that the MQM was asking people to bear with patience so that they may not opt for the path of separation. He said that he was making appeals for peace and patience even today.
Mr Hussain asked as why the Supreme Court that takes suo moto notice of almost anything was not taking any notice of the situation and inquiring from the law-enforcing agencies as to why liberal and moderate forces were not being allowed to take part in elections freely.
Mr Hussain said that world over political parties were divided in left-wing and right wing, but everyone had the freedom to take part in elections. Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah had a liberal outlook, and he was not a jihadi. We need a Pakistan according to the vision of the Quaid-i-Azam and we reject those who wanted to implement Sharia by use of blatant force.
Mr Hussain asked the people of Punjab to disabuse their minds about the false perceptions about the MQM. He said that over fifteen thousand workers and sympathizers of the MQM had been killed, and someone must have killed them as they did not die themselves.
In the end, he paid tribute to the workers for spreading the message of the MQM in the Punjab despite hardships and difficult circumstances.

Tonight: Second Lovers Hit the House of Blues (And So Should You)
Alright, so there's a big, big pile of no-shit, truly-awesome stuff happening tonight — Friday, May 1st, that is. Before you make your evening plans & such, though, I wanted to point up one show in particular as being eminently worthy of consideration, I didn't want to miss the boat.
See, this evening the House of Blues plays host to H-town's own Second Lovers, who've grown over the past few years now into one of my hands-down, absolute-favorite roots-rock bands, and I don't just mean locally. They grabbed hold of me pretty solidly with 2012's Wishers, Dreamers & Liars, with Nico Morales' melancholy, sharp-edged vocals and some excellent duets with now-former-band member Ashley Parker.
Then 2013's EP release New Mexico showed the band was, if anything, growing tighter and more self-assured in their songwriting. They seemed less afraid to branch out into more overtly "rock" sounds (see the Springsteen-meets-Nickel Creek "Alright" for proof of that) and more, well, more happy, if that makes any sense. It felt like the Second Lovers were realizing that as a band, they really could do whatever the hell they wanted and make it work.
Two years on, and the band's been hard at work in the studio, recording a forthcoming new album with John Allen Stephens of the band-friends New York City Queens (who, judging by his own band's recorded output, knows his way around a mixing board), and they were kind enough to give me a peek at a couple of their in-progress tracks.
It's funny, because while I just praised the band's first album and their sound back then, hearing where they're at now makes me grin like a big, dumb idiot. Following somewhat the blueprint put forth on New Mexico, Morales and his bandmates (who are Chelsea Renee, Josh Hammond, Sean Spiller, John Maxwell, and Thom Truver, these days) have left the country-folk stuff even further back down the dusty, windswept road, bringing only the parts they need to get them on their way and soldering them onto a framework of rootsy, melodic, heartfelt, almost joyful-sounding rock.
On "Hold On," the Second Lovers come tearing down the road, with distorted, indie-rock-ish guitars, insistently-driving drums, a subtly Motown-sounding bassline, and a chorus that's fun as hell to yell along with in the car. It's full of hope and promise that as long as the song's protagonists can stay together, everything will be okay in the end, and by the time the song comes to a close, yeah, you'll be convinced, too.
Then there's "Corner Store," which features an awesome back-and-forth between Morales and newish vocalist Renee, who has one hell of a great, husky, sultry voice, and which comes off almost like early Arcade Fire if they'd eschewed the art-rock in favor of old Uncle Tupelo and (yes, again) Springsteen cassette tapes. The mandolin's still there, but it's less a full partner than a bit of embellishment, the guitars ride a brilliant descending drone riff, and when Morales howls that the object of the song has never let him down, it's with eyes wide and a voice full of triumph.
Second Lovers play up at the HOB tonight with College Station-bred band The Docs (who're celebrating their EP release tonight, although I have yet to hear it) and the also-excellent Adam Bricks; the doors open at 7PM, so get up there early and don't miss any of the bands/people playing, alright?

"Who was a larger failure as a battlefield commander, George McClellan or Braxton Bragg?"
George McClellan, the greater the man the greater the failure
Perhaps you should list the generals' greatest failures and the consequences in order to get an accurate judgment.
What a rich question, and I especially like mende's point. But in my opinion, General Bragg is the greater failure of the two. Interestingly, McClellan and Bragg, both extremely intelligent men, displayed similar talents for organization and soldier training. But they operated under extremely different circumstances. McClellan had almost unlimited manpower and material resources at his disposal, whereas Bragg was faced with building an army from the ground up out of nothing. Yet the latter enjoyed full support of Jefferson Davis, whereas General McClellan's military and philosophical approach to the war ran counter to the Lincoln administration. (One might argue that Lincoln was right and McClellan wrong, but I have read experts who convincingly showed that McClellan's peninsular approach to Richmond made much more sense militarily than the overland route insisted upon by Lincoln.) McClellan shone as a natural leader who took care of the soldiers and cultivated the loyalty of subordinates, whereas Bragg alienated many, from immediate subordinates to deprived privates. Bragg struggled with multiple, significant health problems while, as far as I know, McClellan did not. Both were seemingly stymied by something intangible and internal. Ironically, it was perhaps McClellan's fear of failure that led to his failure. While his results rarely seemed to match his perceived ability, at least he never presided over such a complete disaster as did Bragg on more than one occasion. Just taking into account Bragg's maddening inaction at Fort Fisher, this one failure exceeds anything McClellan ever did or didn't do. And then there was Missionary Ridge…. While I believe that Bragg has been misunderstood and unfairly lambasted by historians, his faults undeniably contributed to the failures that occurred under his leadership. As to McClellan, he simply did not see it as a total war in the way that Grant and Sherman did, and the approach he took was at least consistent with his viewpoint, whereas General Bragg seemed to fight primarily against himself.
George B. McClellan. Interesting points made here but still go with Mac. He worked very hard to believe in his sobriquet,'Young Napoleon' and fought often with superiors to have his way regardless. I must admit that either choice has merit but still believe Mac's failures prolonged the War, especially Antietam. Peninsula was a close second.
As an aside, Styple's new book McClellans Other War sheds light into this dilemna.
I agree with joe truglio.Being a good and popular organiser is no excuse for the Dead at Antietam,just because he was much to slow to act after finding RE Lee's Order and unable to use all the units the President and Congress had entrusted him with
Good points, all. However, If the operative word is "battlefield commander," that's a more narrowly defined question than one of overall command abilities (i.e., logistical, strategical, personal)—though, of course, these other factors aren't completely exclusive; they do feed into each other.
Looking purely at the battlefield, one could say that Bragg was the larger failure of the two. He had two tactical victories that accomplished little (Perryville and Chickamauga), one costly battle that can be viewed variously as a stalemate or a narrow defeat (Stones River) and one clear, overwhelming loss (Missionary Ridge). If one were to grade these numerically (a doubtful proposition at best), Bragg would have gained 2 and lost at least 1 (possibly 2) ending up with a score of 1 or 0.
McClellan does a bit better; he has five major victories/costly stalemates to his credit—Rich Mountain, Williamsburg, Seven Pines, most of the Seven Days' Battles, and Antietam. Again, if one were to assign these battles numerical values, McClellan might have at least a 3, if not a 5.
The trouble with this kind of comparison, though, is that Bragg was at least present and in (some degree of) control of what his army did, whereas McClellan was absent in most cases. So how much credit should McClellan get for his wins?
To be sure, this is an interesting question, but I'm not at all certain whether there can ever be a clear answer to it.
I feel it must be McClellan… short answer – a general's main purpose is to fight and at least Bragg did that (not very well but he did it). McClellan acted most of the time like he didn't really want to get his hands dirty (ie fight a battle). For that he is the much bigger failure.
Here's the tally so far: McClellan gets 4 votes as the greater failure, and Bragg gets 1 for-sure vote, and I think 2 if we go by guitarmandanga's numerical score.
I am touched that Bragg has done so well here so far. Judging from the usual treatment of him, I really thought that he would be unanimously stomped on! Even though I voted for him as the greater failure, I have a soft spot for Braxton Bragg, perhaps partly because my great-great-grandfather was his surgeon, but mainly because I think he has been grossly misunderstood and mischaracterized. (Please see my way-too-long post in the "Examining Braxton Bragg.")
I understand your "soft spot" for Bragg.He was no "public relation expert" (he seems to have had poor relationships with his subordinates) and he had to deal with a major piece of work (having Polk as a wing commander is like having to fight an extra Union Corps).He had real qualities as an officer.I may be wrong, but the man who appointed him is equally to be blamed for his failure.Among the "duties of leadership and command" is the ability to choose the right person and the right means to perform any task.The Confederate President was a West Pointer,he had experience in combat duty.Bragg might have been much more successful in supervising the training of new recruits.I can't understand why Jefferson Davis had a soft spot for some questionable officers to the detriment of men like Joe Johnston,Beauregard and a few others.
I may add a quotation from a 17th-century play (I can't remember which one,sorry)_"Quand le bras a failli, on en punit la tête"_When the arm fails, the head is to be blamed.
I agree with you completely!!
I am also impressed that we have kept things civil to Bragg. Im a ranger at Chickamauga and Chattanooga NMP and try to treat him fairly. An area that Ive been working on is debunking the notion that he was hated by everyone, I have found many accounts of soldiers and subordinates that liked him.
I long to visit the Chickamauga battlefield! Hope to do so soon. I will come armed with "The Maps of Chickamauga" which I found indispensable to follow the battle. I really like Peter Cozzens's "This Terrible Sound." Are there other books on that battle that you can recommend? I am particularly interested in it because my great-great-grandfather, Bragg's surgeon mentioned above, amputated General Hood's leg when he was wounded there. I would be fascinated if the location of the hospital where that occurred is known, or if there is any other information regarding Dr. T. G. Richardson in the battlefield archives. After the war in New Orleans, he continued as Hood's personal physician, and Hood named one of his (many) daughters after Dr. Richardson's wife.

For all the chili-head 'Hounds, what's the hottest dish you've found in the area? While pure heat is nice, please differentiate between those dishes that are also flavorful (if you can take the heat) and those that are just "heat masochist" exercises with no discernable flavor beyond "hot".
My initial votes - Szechuan Chili chicken at China Star (about equal parts breaded chicken cubes and red chilis)
Red Fish Curry at Bombay Peacock in Columbia (special ordered by a friend for a gathering of work associates)

Clipper to Access
Hello Everyone!
I am a newbie to this whole forum thing so please be patient and I thank you all in advance for your insight!
I have a Clipper 5.01 Inventory Management /POS system that I initially wrote
way back in 92. Over the years it has been tweaked and twisted and has served our company of 6 stores very well, and has literally processed millions of dollars in sales. However "the company" wishes to move (or I should say partially move) to a Windows based CRM program. Now the catch is they want to keep the existing DOS based Clipper App to continue handling Inventory, Invoice processing and the Accounts Receivable. This CRM program which as you know handles the Customer information, allows mass marketing, emailing, and a whole lot of other stuff will need to be able to share certain amounts of data with the Clipper App. As this software utilizes the Jet Engine (which I believe is basically the MS-Access engine) it will need to communicate or extract or even push data back to Clipper. Does anyone out there have any experience or insight or general wisdom to share as to how I would look at achieving this?
Again I thank you for your thoughts!
