Water and electricity mix well for Ashly
Water and electricity mix well for Ashly
The CA Series is based on a Class-D design
Ashly Audio has created the CA and FA Series of amplifiers.
Featuring three two-channel and three four-channel models in 500W, 1,000W and 1,500W per channel (at 4Ω) versions, the CA Series is based on a Class-D design. In addition, all six amplifiers are designed for stable operation at 2Ω and 70V. Each unit incorporates Ashly's D-MAX proprietary power supply design and energy management systems plus advanced control system implementation. Dynamic Power-Factor Correction assists the power utilisation efficiency by tracking fluctuations in current, rather than just sampling at the peaks. Furthermore, the SailFlow cooling design feature introduces a bilateral air-cooling system to maintain a low operational temperature. Euroblock and XLR combo connectors come as standard.
Designed to provide versatility in a compact solution, the FA Series of 1U lightweight amplifiers can be fixed to walls or under desks. The FA Series comprises half-rack four-channel (125W) and two-channel (125W) configurations in addition to a full 1U model. All three amplifiers are convection cooled and are Energy Star rated.
Meanwhile, to save time and costs for both the SI and the end-user, Ashly has developed the intuitive AquaControl software to power future Ashly solutions. The browser-based software is operable without an app for the new lineup of web-enabled products.

Ojai Chief of Police James Fryhoff on threat at Nordhoff High School
- Details
- Published: Monday, 16 September 2019 21:24
Ojai Police Chief James Fryhoff
Ojai Police Chief James Fryhoff posted this comment on the Ojai Community Network Public Group Facebook page on Monday, Sept. 16, in response to unsubstantiated online threat for Nordhoff High School:
"Thank you all for your patience at Nordhoff High School today. It was great seeing all of you who attended, and I completely respect the decision by those who chose to remain at home. Unfortunately, this is a sad reminder of where we are as a nation right now. I want to assure you that your police department will respond accordingly to all threats and will hold accountable those who are responsible.
More importantly, this provides parents an opportunity to have an age-appropriate discussion with their children on what to do in the event of an active shooter. This discussion is much broader than what to do on campus, but also what to do when at the movies, a concert, the mall, etc.
We need all stakeholders to speak up when they are aware of a possible threat. Our goal is to keep everyone safe, and we need to work together to make that possible. In the words of Dr. Tiffany Morse, "If you see (or hear) something, say something." We cannot express that enough.
As your Chief, I would like to share with you that the Ventura County Sheriff's Office trains all deputies in response to active shooter situations. I will continue to work with Dr. Morse to ensure our campuses are as safe as possible so students can focus on their education and not worry about threats that cause undue stress on the students, parents, and teachers.
The school year has just begun, and although I would like to believe that this is the only threat we will receive, we all need to be prepared for the possibility of this happening again. Take care of yourselves and each other.

So, I guess I get a flag.
At least that is what I've been told. I hear that is what happens when a "hero" dies.
They use the word "hero" because my dad fought for his country and I am glad that they will honor him in his death. They will send out men with guns and shoot fake bullets into the air. They will salute and they will hand me a flag. And… I know that my dad will be smiling down. He was always very patriotic and was proud to have served his country.
Sometimes, on holidays like Memorial Day, he would sneak away to a cemetery and visit the graves of the vets. He would look at the flags by their graves and bow his head and pray with moving lips before their headstones. He would finish his prayer and look at the name one last time and mouth these words… "Thank You".
That was who he was. He was very sentimental and traditional and was a man of honor. I understand why he deserves a flag. But, it is not only because of what he did on a far away shore… but for how he lived his life and the example he set for me.
He was a hero in his marriage.
He was in love with my mom since she was 15 years old. When she was only 17 my dad was drafted into the Vietnam War and was shipped across an ocean where he served his country in the 101st Airborne – Artillery Division. However, while he was there fighting, he was given a short leave… a small window to escape the jungle and the turmoil that raged around him to find solace in the arms of the one he loved. The only problem is that she was not yet 18, her mom didn't like him, and she was still planted firmly in the United States of America.
But… as my dad would often quote from one of his favorite shows… "The A-Team".
"I love it when a plan comes together."
The plan was simple. My mom would run away from home days before her 18th birthday with my dad's brother. They would hop on a plane to Hawaii where my dad would be there waiting. My mom would turn 18 in Hawaii and then… in a Catholic Church in Waikiki… they would tie the knot.
I don't know how they did it… but they pulled it off. My mom made it to Hawaii… but was chased by her mom (my grandma) and her sister (my aunt). They searched all over Hawaii trying to find her… but never did. Instead, Ms. Janice Elaine Stock became Mrs. Janice E. Hintz and the rest was history.
I couldn't blame my grandma for wanting to stop it. My dad was fighting a war. Her daughter had just turned 18. Statistically… it would never work. But, somehow it did. My parents were happily married until the day my mom breathed her last breath on earth. And… if you knew my dad… you would know that their marriage lasted long past my mother's death. People come to me now and make statements like…
"Your father sure loved your mom."
"Your dad still talks about your mom all the time."
"I watched some of your home movies with your mom in them."
I would try to coach him to not talk about my mom so much, but it didn't matter. My mom was with him and part of him and there was nothing that I was ever going to say that was going to change that. I stopped trying.
I now smile when I think of how deep my dad's love was for my mom. He had something that was so special that many never have the opportunity to experience today. It was true love. It wasn't perfect and it wasn't always pretty. They had many mountaintop moments and they also shared time in the valley together. There was the moment when my dad was downsized and lost his job and they had to reinvent what life looked like. There was the moment my mom was diagnosed with lymphoma and they had to balance the "good days" with the "bad". There was the moment they had to say "Goodbye". My mom from heaven and my dad pressing hard against the earth. But, through it all, I saw a grace and love that I long to emulate in my life.
I saw my hero.
I look back to the moment when his idiot 16 year old son (Yeah… ME) ran away from home and ended up going to Florida from Ohio. I remember getting stranded on a freeway in South Carolina and I remember the long Greyhound Bus ride back to Ohio. I remember getting off a bus… broken and lost with a chip on my shoulder… and I remember who was waiting for me. It was him. In spite of all that I had done. In spite of all the lies and the manipulation and the shame that I had brought upon my family's name… he stood there waiting for me. Why? To bring me home. I didn't know it at the time, but when I saw his face as I looked through the bus's side window…
I saw my hero.
You see, that's what a hero is. Some believe that a hero is someone who does something for themselves… but that is not a hero. A hero is someone who looks beyond themselves for the sake of another. One who puts the needs of another above their own. One who chooses to sacrifice their wants for the sake of another human being.
My dad did that in the jungles of Vietnam… He did that through the journey of life with my mom… And he did it in a punk kid like myself. He gave of himself for the sake of another.
I have pictures scattered all over my house. Some are black and white and some are tattered… some are yellowed out and some are crisp as can be. And, as I look at each one of them I realize the similarity that each one of them has. In each of them…
I see my hero.
His name was Al to many of you, but to me… his name is DAD. It always was and it always will be.
He is my hero because of the example he set. He is my hero for the memories he left me. He is my hero because he chose to live his life for something more than just himself… he chose to live for me.
I know that this may sound selfish, but I know that it's true. When he went to work each day… he did it for his family. When he said yes to the opportunities and no to the temptations that surrounded him each day… he did it for his family. When he looked to the future, he never looked to it solely for himself… he looked for his family.
Now, I look away from the photos and I look in the mirror and I ask what he left behind. I look through the tears to see a mind that has been formed and a soul that has been touched by a hero. I know that many seeds have been planted in my heart over the last 38 years and I know that it is now my job to cultivate the soil of my soul and produce a harvest. To look back and remember the lessons that have been modeled for me… by my hero.
I look forward to receiving a flag and placing it on my mantle for the world to see. I will set it right next to another flag… the flag that my grandfather… my father's father… received for being a hero. I will look at both of these flags differently after today. I will see them for what they are… one man's attempt to honor another. But, I will also see them for what they mean to me. A legacy of heroes passing down the mantle from generation to generation.
With my father's last breath he passed the baton to me. I am now running the race for my family. I am striving to become a hero. Not for the sake of 21 gun salutes or pats on the back… but for the possibility that my kids will look at a ragged old picture of me one day and honestly say…
I see my hero.
Thanks for Sitting Shiva with me again today.

Many times, on all these, I stray away from the thing I may be researching, to a sub-forum and invariably find something interesting, learn something new. I follow posts on CT not by any particular thread, i. e. awnings, but use the 'view new content ' function which covers all and sundry, if there is something interesting, to me, I read and follow it, if it is of no interest to me, though it will be to many others, I simply pass it by, much like reading a newspaper, I have no interest in sport so just turn the page. Yes Cliff, moderators are needed in the background, in my opinion to ensure that nothing insulting or inappropriate appears on the forum, to occasionally assist members by moving their post/thread to a different area to give them better coverage, as is occasionally done on here, all seamlessly and invisible, you hardly know they are there, tasks they perform in their own time, with in most cases without any thanks or acknowledgement, which they don't seek anyway. When you say " Come on moderators, do your job! " be careful what you wish for, there are many forums moderated to death by a clique of moderators whose only interest is their own, is this something you wish for ? Some of this type of moderated ( caravan ) forums are often mentioned on here. Be your own moderator it isn't difficult. ..................honestly. What a well-rounded post - good for you squire.

Discussion in 'Project Logs' started by blackacidevil, 29 Sep 2004.
Very cool!
omg update!!!!
K guys, I havent updated in over 4 months...project went on hold for financial reasons.
No pics tonight, but letting you all know that the beast is out of the corner and ready to be worked on this week. Just some simple measuring tonight for the dual 120mm fans at the top.
Also I hit a snag in terms of sealing it up. Since I have so much airflow coming in through the top, inside the case is going to have positive air pressure, so I wont be sealing the walls with plexi. It's kind of a hassle right now to do it, but I believe I shouldnt have any problems with it being "open". I still put in the front window so hands can't reach inside.
I'll try to get an update on the weekend with lots of pics, including dark shots if i can figure out how to change the shutter speed on my crappy digital Canon PowerShot A20. I looked it up but couldnt find any answers.
deleted sorry
It looks cool, but isn't that a bit too large for a computercase? I thought mine is all too huge, even it "only" weights about 30kgs
glad to see you starting work on this again. keep us updated.
... no comment ...
For a computer case, yes. But it makes an impression, especially when guests come over.
Tht Case looks amazing!!! Very big tho
big f*ing case
Can't wait til the weekend, so this is the progress so far...
Monday night:
Cut the holes for the dual 120mm fans.
Mounted a piece of scrap aluminum L-channel to the door.
That was it. Had to watch RAW at 9pm.
Tuesday night:
Drilled a small hole in the corner to run the wires from the 4 fans and strobe light down to the Control Panel.
Took the roof outside and re-painted the half with the holes cut, and hung it in the bathroom to dry, with the aid of my hockeytable fan.
Marked the spot to cut/chisel out a groove on the top piece so it would fit flush with the L-channel piece.
Taped off the area to Dremel for the mobo I/O panel.
Wednesday night:
Had to wait for the delivery of a new couch, so I couldn't spread out all my modding crap. By the time it arrived I didn't feel like anything serious, so I just mounted my fan grills and fans onto the roof. You can see where I repainted, I still have to resand, paint, resand, paint, etc.
One of my 80mm quad LED fans developed a crack, for no reason. It's been sitting in a box, so it's not like it got stepped on or fell from anywhere. Didn't feel like dropping any more money than I have to for this case, so I stole some Krazy Glue from work and patched it. Seems to work fine now.
All lit up. Took me a while to figure out how to get the camera to allow longer exposure time, but it worked.
looking good. but whats the hole in the middle for?
well if you read the whole thread, you'd know. Go back to page 6.
nice idea on the hanger. Looks nice and cool!
of course! the huge-sweet-led-car headlight-type-thingy. now i renember!
Looks really really cool. Mod on!
Aww man RAW, that takes me back to the days of 7th grade when I used to watch that crap, LOL. I thought wrestling was dead though seriously, didn't the other stuff die out and venue sales are down like 50% aren't they?
Still have LOTS to do, and more pix to take, but i just wanted to get the guts installed.
-Better wire management
-Stealth the DVD drives
-re-wire the DVD drives
-find the AC adapter for my Laser LED Strobe Light
-mount the hard drives
-install front plexi
-add USB/mic/headphone ports to Control Panel
-take more pics. heh.
-Install the GF's crappy Celeron PC and components.
More pics as promised. I'll take some lighted shots of the interior etc. another day, as well as find that damn AC plug for the laser strobe.
Separate names with a comma.

Is it a plane? Is it Super Mum again?
No, it's Super Dad!!
The 15th June is Father's Day, and for it, I have made little Super Dad badges.
The badges are felt with 'Super Dad' handstitching. They are 5 cms tall and wide with a brooch back. I thought it would be a cute to mount them on a Super Dad doodle so the badge looked like his body.
Using combinations of blue, red and yellow, I made 5 different badges.
These 3 went to Archie & Mabel's today and I have 2 to put in my etsy shop next week.
Father's Day felties are ready now as I'll be spending some stitch-free days away.
(I may sneak a little embroidery with me to keep any crafting cravings at bay. Hello, my name's Jenny and I'm a stitch-aholic.)
I'll be back home on the 27th, ready to open shop on the 28th, but those days away may mean an end to my Post-a-day-in-May.
Hope to see you tomorrow!

Photo exhibition.
12. 12. 2018 – 31. 3. 2019
In the decades after the Second World War, with the general modernisation of the former common state, mass tourism also began to develop, just as elsewhere in Europe.
In 1946, the Government of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia introduced 14-30 days paid leave for employees, and in 1965, in order to allow as many people as possible to take holidays, above all workers, who had until then had been unable to do so, it additionally introduced an annual holiday bonus. The sixties can be described as a time of flourishing of tourism in Yugoslavia, which achieved its peak in the eighties. A record number of overnight stays was recorded in 1986, 111.1 million, made up of 59.7 million domestic and 51.4 million foreign, mainly English, Austrian and Italian tourists. The largest number, 76.7 million overnight stays, was recorded on the Croatian coast, where for the most part Slovenes spent their holidays.
The large number of trade union, children's and youth holiday homes, the possibility of renting private rooms and camping in tents and trade union holiday caravans, enabled cheap holidays for the majority of employees and their families. Most people spent their holidays by the sea, but visiting health spas and walking in the mountains were also popular, where they refreshed themselves in the nearby lakes and rivers. Not everyone spent their holidays in tourist destinations. The reasons for this were a lack of money or urgent household tasks, though some people simply decided to spend the holiday at home.
The photographic exhibition on holidaying in Yugoslavia, which will awaken memories for some and give others an insight into former sunny holiday days, will lead you through various tourist destinations. The authors of the selected photographs from the collection of the Museum of Contemporary History of Slovenia are: Marjan Ciglič, Nace Bizilj, Edi Šelhaus, Mitja Škof, Jože Mally, Marjan Pfeifer, Milan Pogačar, Joco Čermak, Bogo Primožič, Rudi Paškulin, Matija Jurovič, Janez Lampič, Vlastja Simončič, France Cerar and Svetozar Busić.
The exhibition will be on view until the end of March, 2019.

por kecoa berani (2019-04-19)
If you desire effective, long-term fat burning or an end to emotional or anxiety consuming, you are mosting likely to need all the positive outlook as well as self-support you can create. That is where motivating, encouraging, as well as self-supportive self-talk comes in. Self-defeating thoughts and negative thinking practices, on the other hand, can have a disastrous impact on your result. "Stinking-thinking" are the kinds of ideas that produce tension as well as generate adverse emotions such as anxiety, anxiety, sadness, or irritation. These unfavorable ideas frequently start a vicious cycle: you assume unfavorable thoughts, you really feel negative, and after that you find some means to really feel better by engaging in eating. If you can find out to talk delicately to yourself in the first place, you can save on your own from really feeling negative!

Negative attitude patterns are learned means of assuming - which suggests that with some effort and also desire, you can find out new mind-sets. The initial step to altering your self-talk is to determine the different patterns of ideas that trigger your negative feelings and cravings for food. By finding out brand-new patterns of idea, you can minimize stress, boost your degree of self-confidence, and also benefit your joy. The adhering to lists several of one of the most common kinds of destructive reasoning patterns that take place:
All Or Absolutely nothing Thinking
This thinking includes seeing things in absolute terms, like "always" or "never". You might likewise hear this referred to as black and also white thinking. For example, if you slipped off your goal activity plan and consumed doughnuts at midmorning, you after that claim, "I've currently blown it. I may as well surrender on the rest of the day." If a situation disappoints 100% perfection, you see it as a total failure. This stream of consciousness is really harmful to your success.

You see a solitary negative occasion as a never-ending pattern of defeat. If one negative occasion happens, you might believe, "It's simply my luck. Absolutely nothing good ever before happens to me." While you might experience negative occasions several of the time, opportunities exist has gone to the very least one exemption to it. Hanging on to this broad generalization just maintains you from seeing the reality as it truly is. It's unfavorable as well as self-defeating.
Magnification and also Reducing
This sort of assuming does 2 points: It sees the positive results of your activities as smaller sized than they truly are, and also exaggerates the negative outcomes of your actions. Another instance takes place when you overemphasize the positive qualities of other individuals and also decrease their unfavorable characteristics. This design of reasoning might additionally inappropriately diminish your accomplishments down up until they seem insignificant, while you fanatically harp on what is 'incorrect' with you. Often this is referred to as "making a hill out of a mole hillside."
read too: Sleep Position During Pregnancy and prevention of osteoporosis and What Is Acne? and signs of malnutrition Disqualifying the Favorable
This is an extreme type of all-or-nothing thinking without the "all"! Favorable messages as well as activities are constantly deleted or turned down. The positive experiences simply "do not count" and also you only address the adverse. You pick a single negative detail as well as dwell on it - discounting any kind of other proof to the contrary. This negative thought darkens every favorable that has continued. For instance, imagine you lost 30 pounds. However, for some factor you got back five of those pounds. Negative attitude dwells entirely on the 5 extra pounds got back, dimming the whole scenario. Discounting the positive takes the pleasure out of life and makes you feel inadequate and also unrewarded.
Emotional Reasoning
You presume that your feelings show the way things actually are. This believing reasons, "I feel it, for that reason it must be true." Emotions are thought about for life realities. For example, you might reason, "I feel distressed, I'll never get through this."

You try to motivate yourself with should statements, such as, "I ought to be eating healthy", "I must not eat that", "I need to have lost much more weight now", or "I must begin exercising." Usually it is habit to make use of words such "should", "should not", "have to", "should", and "should not" in an attempt to create modification. However, these are negative, action-stopping words. If you feel you must do something, then it's something you don't intend to do however, for some factor feel obliged to do. The emotional consequence of making use of "must" on yourself is sense of guilt - which typically is ineffective as a long-lasting incentive. Realize that as an adult you always have a choice.
Labeling as well as Slandering
Instead of describing the certain habits, you designate a tag to on your own. Underlying labeling is the thought that if you get angry sufficient at yourself, possibly you will change. Rather than describing your activity or actions, you evaluate yourself harshly by saying "I'm a failing", "I'm fat and awful", or "I'm such a dumb pinhead." As opposed to defining your error, you attach an adverse tag to on your own. Identifying on your own harshly never ever aids the process of self-awareness or understanding. These declarations are likely to trigger substantial emotional swings of temper, frustration, and also reduced self-worth.

Mental Filter
You focus so strongly on a single negative or distressing detail as well as harp on it so exclusively that your vision of fact ends up being darkened. An example is like the solitary drop of ink that stains a whole beaker of water. If, as an example, you had a wonderful day following your eating and also action plan, but then you made one error, you become busied with the error instead of concentrating on the bigger picture of your initiatives and success. Do not let one frustration wreck your whole day.
You see on your own as the root cause of some negative outside occasion, which actually you were not primarily liable.
Positive Self Concerns
Just you can decide to modify your psychological dialog. You alone are the pattern maker and breaker of your very own presence. The primary step is to explore (without reasoning) what you are thinking. Are your thoughts encouraging and caring, or a dismal mix of anxiety, uncertainty, as well as punishment? Enjoy your ideas and write them down on paper.
What am I believing or dwelling on?
Am I seeing the whole reality?
Just how does this idea make me really feel?
Which of the above idea patterns am I making use of?
Is it actually real? How do I understand?
Can I check out this an additional method?
What would I claim to a close friend in this circumstance if I was trying to aid?
What am I requiring right now to really feel differently?
Identifying your style of thinking can assist you test your ideas rather than acting on them.

Date of Meeting:
Scott Bounds, Michael Chibnik, Thomas W. Conway, Jeffrey Denburg, Ed Folsom, Vicki Grassian, Amit Kapoor, Boyd Knosp, Michael Mackey, George Malanson, Cheryl Reardon, Alan Sener and Michael Wichman.
Grassian called the meeting to order at 1:00 pm.
Grassian asked Research Council members if they had any revisions to the minutes from the March 23, 2006 meeting. Mackey made a motion to approve the minutes. The motion was seconded by Wichman. The minutes were approved.
First order of business
The first order of business was to review the report of the Internal Funding Initiatives programs. In early Fall 2005, Vice President Meredith Hay asked the Research Council to review four of the Internal Funding Initiatives to determine if these programs are the most effective use of funds in promoting and supporting research on campus [Biological Sciences Funding Program (BSFP), Mathematical and Physical Sciences Funding Program (MPSFP), Social Sciences Funding Program (SSFP) and Iowa Research Experiences for Undergraduates (IREU)]. The subcommittee includes the following members of Research Council: Vicki Grassian, Michael Chibnik, Jeffrey Denburg, Johna Leddy and Michael Mackey.
The subcommittee gathered input from faculty, staff and administrators and identified five areas to review. These included the purpose of each program, program eligibility, budget and budget eligibility, review process and targeted programs. Research Council reviewed the recommendations in the report. These included:
- improved methods for tracking the success of IFIs in garnering external support (the stated main objective for three of the programs under review) through the internal routing forms as this may provide information that can be used to guide these program in future years;
- the need to better define program eligibility for BSFP, MPSFP and SSFP;
- better oversight of programs by faculty and staff researchers so that proposals are directed to the right program and that budget eligibility is not an issue during the review process;
- consideration of increasing the size of some awards;
- potential change in the conflict of interest policy and criteria so that each proposal can get a fair and informed review; and
- consideration of target areas that align with national initiatives and funding opportunities and ensure that target areas are reviewed each year before announcements are made to the University community of scholars and researchers.
Research Council unanimously endorses the report.
Second order of business
The second order of business was to conduct a thirty minute interview with one of the two finalists for the Associate Vice President for Research: Economic Development. Feedback was provided through evaluations forms that will be forwarded to the Vice President for Research.
The meeting was adjourned at 2:30 pm.

"A day like no other" announced Corey Hines encouraging the global IT community to join the 2012 edition of Global Day of Coderetreat. Corey is a great guy standing behind the idea of code retreat which is supposed to provide developers the opportunity to take part in focused practice on the fundamentals of software development and design. The Global Day of Coderetreat is a world-wide event hold to celebrate the art of software development. In 2011 it gathered over 1.800 passionate software developers in 94 cities around the world for a busy day of practicing the craft of software development. We did gather the local community in 2011 and were eager to do so once again. The Selleo Headquarter become the perfect venue for this day-long, intensive practice event because this time we wanted to promote a slightly different format with a triple coding dojo session.
The main goal of the Global Day of Code Retreat is to promote the concept of practice in the development community so we have chosen a Coding Dojo format (a meeting where a bunch of coders get together to work on a programming challenge in order to improve their skills). During three programming sessions developers focused on coding in front of others, showing off their programming skills coding the tic-tac-toe game in three different languages Ruby, Python, Javascript / Coffeescript.
The 2012 edition was held on December 8th . After the warm welcome and a bunch of free snacks the opening speech was provided by Grzegorz Rduch. He introduced Selleo as a Ruby On Rails and mobile development house and after that, in a few words, described both technological (programmers day) and business (mikstura, stoos) events Selleo was and is going to host.
Next Michał brought in the concept of Coderetreat and Coding Dojo and participants prepared for the first session with Ruby. It was conducted by Bartek Danek & Błażej Kosmowski who covered such issues as rspec, pair programming, tdd, aspec-oriented programming, guard, vim, pry for debugging.
The second session concentrated on Python. During this pair coding Maciej Wiśniowski & Piotr Kasprzyk showed us best practices like: TDD, small commits, static analysis, automation, vim.
And finally we could take a look at Java Script and led by Tomek Bąk & Tomek Borowski participants could master programming in effective and efficient way.
Each session was followed by retrospection so after three long hours of coding we could rest for a while, chat and east delicious dinner. The break ended and Rafał Bromirski showed us the tic-tac-toe game created in pure CSS.
And this was the end of the official part of the Global Day of Coderetreat. For the last hour we were performing some pair programming and using Coding Dojo Randori Kata formula. The 2012 Global Day of Coderetreat was hosted under the Mikstura.IT brand so If you want to join the web and mobile community, just visit the Mikstura.IT web page for more details on future events and join in next time.

Garth Brooks is a country music legend. Everyone knows the man for his iconic patterned shirts and hilarious bittersweet classics like "Friends in Low Places." But there's a sweet side of Garth that only true fans who attend his amazing live concerts are lucky enough to see. Below are four heartwarming moments of Brooks showing some serious love to his loyal devotees.
1. He gave his guitar to a fan with cancer.
A touching video on YouTube captures the moment that Garth gives his guitar to a fan in the crowd at one of his concerts in Minneapolis. In the video, Brooks approaches a woman in the crowd who holds up a sign that reads "Chemo This Morning, Garth Tonight, Enjoying The Dance." He sits on the edge of the stage and finishes his song before handing the woman his guitar.
On Entertainment Tonight, Brooks recounts the moment before being reunited with the woman. He says the rigors of an intense tour schedule were put in perspective when he saw her in the crowd. "You're like, 'Am I really b-tching about anything? Really?'" he says. "It caught me off guard. She was so sweet, and her face said it all."
2. He offered to pay for a couple's honeymoon after they got engaged at his show.
After two superfans got engaged at a concert of his in Oklahoma City, Garth asked where their honeymoon will be. When they said they didn't know, they were shocked at his response: "If you pick Hawaii, Ms. [Garth's wife Trisha> Yearwood and I will pay for it."
3. He serenaded a woman on her 89th birthday.
Brooks might be the Oprah of country music. At a concert in Lafayette, LA, a fan received Garth's guitar after he serenaded her to a song. What was the special occasion? The woman was celebrating her 89th birthday. Her joy is undeniable. A video of the moment reveals the woman smiling ear to ear when the country star hops into the crowd and walks up to the woman with his guitar. In the clip, her granddaughter can be heard saying, "He's singing to you grandma!" The woman's last concert before this? Elvis. With a gift like this, that's worth the wait.
4. He sang a duet with a fan before his show.
One lucky fan got a chance to sing a duet with the country star before a show in Louisville, KY. It was an exciting moment for the 19-year-old, who suffers from Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disease that constantly leaves her hungry. The girl and her family were thrilled when Brooks invited them for his soundcheck before the event started. What they didn't expect was the country singer sitting down with her to sing a rendition of his song "The River" together.

The latency for one cache miss is about 150 nsec. This implies that if you have *one* cache miss every 4 nodes, you will spend 3% on that single random access memory read. Apparently, caching works very well for crafty, except for HashProbe( ;). Again, my figures are on my slow machine. Your machine is ~6x faster, while your memory latency is not much better, so I suspect the figures will be much worse on your machine.

Female Genital Prolapse
# Genital prolapse is an extrusion or herniation of genital mass through the vagina.
# This creates discomfort in walking, as well as causing a feeling of pressure, and sometimes a loss of urine.
# There are three types of female genital hernias: cystocele, rectocele, and enterocele. A cystocele occurs where the bladder wall pushes into the vagina (also known as a dropped bladder). A rectocele occurs when the rectum pushes into the vagina. An enterocele occurs when the small intestine pushes into the vagina. Additionally, an enterocele may be associated with prolapse of the uterus (the uterus pushes down into the vagina). A woman can experience more than one type simultaneously. Women who have had multiple children are at higher risk for developing any or all of these conditions.
# There are three degrees of uterine prolapse. In first-degree prolapse, the cervix remains within the vagina. In second-degree prolapse, the cervix is at or near the introitus. Finally, in third-degree prolapse (procidentia uteri), most or all the uterus lies outside the vaginal opening. Uterine prolapse is always accompanied by some degree of vaginal-wall prolapse.
# Obstetrical trauma (multiparity, infant weight)
# Congenital weakness of pelvis
# Decreased estrogen levels (e.g., menopause)
# Increased intra-abdominal pressure (e.g., obesity, chronic lung disease, asthma)
# Pelvic pain, heaviness or pressure (experienced in more than 90% of cases)
# Protrusion of tissue (experienced in more than 90% of cases)
# Difficult or painful intercourse
# Lower back pain
# Nausea, constipation
# Difficulty walking
# Urinary difficulty, frequency, urgency, incontinence
# High-fiber diet
# Weight reduction
# Pessaries-devices placed inside the vagina to help push herniated (prolapsed) organ back into place
# Corrective surgery

Open Your Clamshell ~ Let Yourself Emerge
Our lives are a lot like a clam shell. Daily life, the ups and downs, cause us to begin to put on armor. This armor helps us feel ready for battle. Gives us a place to hide away, to blend in.
Do you put on armor? What does your armor look like? Sometimes, we use the armor to shrink away, take up less space; causing us to loose ourselves, a sense of who we are, where we are headed. We become a clam shell that is closed so tightly, protecting what is inside.
What if we let go a little? Loosened our armor, took up more space? What if we let ourselves truly radiate and emerge?
Have you ever tried to open a clam shell? Or watched someone do it?
I have not personally attempted cracking into a clam shell, but I have watched it attempted many times. Even the most acclaimed chefs and clam harvesters have a hard time sometimes.
It takes a special tool, muscle, lining things up right, and a whole lot of persistence, but also caution - need to watch your fingers and don't want to ruin the delicious edible part.
Once finally cracked open with success, we find, sometimes, the beauty of what a speck of dirt can turn into - a pearl - or at the very least a delicious meal.
You, you are that pearl. Hidden away sometimes, surrounded by armor.
You have to open up, lay it out, let it go. Is it easy to do? Not always, but the end result is something magical really.
Why? Because as you take down that armor piece by piece you being to emerge. You begin to take up space, grow confident in being heard, being seen. And that is okay.
It is hard and sometimes we need to dig down deep. But as you dig, you plant your roots. Those roots will get stronger and then provide a sense of grounding. This spot, this space, remember it. Because when things get tough again, you can always come back to this space, this grounding and start again.
Are you going to grow and have success? You bet. Are you going to fall, fail, make mistakes? Most definitely. Offer yourself extra grace during this. And then try again.
With time, intention, mistakes, growth, and change your armor will get totally laid down. You will be able to totally open up. Totally emerge. Totally radiate.
Recently I was given the idea to create an Emerging Manifesto. A simple form, but can go as deep as you want. And can also relate to any theme you put it to. Start with an I am statement, then I will, I vow, I invite, and end with another I am statement (same as you started or a different one). Instead of looking at where you are now with it, like a closed clam shell, open your shell. Let yourself write on where you are going to be when you emerge.
I will share mine below. But first, I want you to remember something. It is okay to take up space, to emerge, to be you. You know that phrase, "Bloom where you are planted"? It is kind of cliche in some ways, but it is true, especially in the sense of emerging. Watch a high speed video of a flower growing and then blooming. It is truly an amazing thing.
Opening up, laying down that armor, you begin to emerge in every sense. Let yourself free.
My Emerging Manifest
I am Confident in who I am, where I am going, and I am enough
I will Let my true self ~ Inside & Out ~ Radiate
I vow To Stand Strong, knowing that in order to take up space I will be seen, I will be heard, I will Bloom
I invite Patience to guide me, grow my calm, space for grace, and solid grounding to return to when I am off balance
I am Vibrant, full of life, full of energy, and handcrafted

Chris 'The Mole' Mole shipwrecked on Hopeless Maine five years ago, the sole survivor of a ship that had, as far as anyone could tell, been swept backwards through time. Where most shipwrecks just lie around breaking up while we frantically try and salvage them, The Eldritch Whale simply blinked in and out of focus for a couple of days. There was one, final damp plopping noise, and the strange craft was never seen again.
For the duration of his time with us, Chris Mole perplexed islanders as much as we seem to have perplexed him. His questions were always challenging, especially his desire to know when people come from, and not where. We know Hopeless Maine has an odd relationship with the state of Maine to which we properly belong. None of us have seen the mainland in a while. We know from what washes in that our attire and speech may be a bit eccentric compared to what goes on inland. But the suggestion that we are temporally out of place has been unsettling.
It makes far more sense to assume that we are perfectly fine here on this island, and that Mr Mole had somehow moved through time towards us.
None of this goes any way towards explaining the digging. My personal hunch is that nominative determinism was at play here. How could a chap called Mole not feel a tug towards the pick and spade? For five years, he dug small holes all over the island, and still, no one knows why. What did he hope to find, or achieve? What did he dig up? No one knows.
As is often the case with island deaths, we can only infer the demise of Chris Mole. No body has been found – he may have fallen from a cliff, been swept out to sea or eaten by something. He may have become undead. He may be with us still but in some non-corporeal form brought on by something he dug up. He may have fallen into one of his own holes and somehow buried himself.
What we do know is that his pick and shovel were found beside a small hole just off the Fish Hill road. There has been no sign of him in any of his usual haunts in the past week. Until or unless a body appears that might be attributed to him, he will join the ranks of the uncertain – and we will shout his name at the sea, the sky and the land on each full moon until we know what happened, or we forget to mention him.
Find out about Chris Mole's comics here – https://www.chrismole.co.uk/comics/
And join the kickstarter that killed him – there's plenty of room in the mass grave for anyone who regrets not having got in for a personal obituary – just let us know! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/countrostov/tales-of-hopeless-maine

PuTTY has released its latest version of the software which includes security patches for 8 high-severity security vulnerabilities. Almost 20 months after releasing the last version of its software, the developers of PuTTY earlier this week released the latest version 0.71 for Windows and Unix operating systems.
According to an advisory, all previous versions of the PuTTY software have been found vulnerable to multiple security vulnerabilities. Here below I have listed all 8 vulnerabilities with brief information that PuTTY 0.71 has patched:
1) Authentication Prompt Spoofing — PuTTY doesn't have a way to indicate whether a piece of terminal output is genuine, the user-interface issue could be exploited by a malicious server to generate a fake authentication prompt at the client side, prompting victims to enter their private key passphrases.
2) Code Execution via CHM Hijacking — When a user launches the online help within the PuTTY GUI tools, the software tries to locate its help file alongside its own executable.
3) Buffer Overflow in Unix PuTTY Tools — If a server opens too many port forwardings, PuTTY does not bounds-check the input file descriptor it collects while monitoring the collections of active Unix file descriptors for activity, leading to a buffer overflow issue.
4) Reusing Cryptographic Random Numbers — This issue resides in the way cryptographic random number generator in PuTTY, occasionally using the same batch of random bytes twice.
5) Integer Overflow Flaw — All prior versions of PuTTY suffers an Integer overflow issue due to missing key-size check-in RSA key exchange.
6, 7 and 8) Terminal DoS Attacks — Last three vulnerabilities in PuTTY allows a server to crash, or slow down client's terminal by sending different text outputs.
Servers can send a long unbroken string of Unicode characters to the client's terminal, which could lead to a denial-of-service attack by causing the system to allocate potentially unlimited amounts of memory.

Quest Mode is a gameplay mode introduced in, and currently exclusive to, Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis.
Quest Mode is unlocked after the fourth story battle (Formido) and accessed from the title screen. In it, the player can obtain rare items and hefty Goth rewards upon completion, but no EXP. Loading Quest Mode requires a save file that has at least one "book" (map) unlocked; of these maps, all have a fixed level and, with the only exception of Numida Chronology, also have an entry fee. Every battle has one unique (generic class) leader and randomized lackeys, and only five of the player's units can be deployed.
Before entering any map, the player can set the victory condition of the battles (kill leader or kill all) and the limit of turns to do so; the more ambitious the better the reward. Failure earns nothing and loses the entry fee. To get the best treasures and Goth reward, it's best to either choose "defeat the leader" in 1-3 turns or "defeat everyone" in 1-9 turns as victory conditions.
See also Quest Mode/Rewards for requirements and range of prizes.
Some emblems that cannot be obtained in Training Mode can be unlocked here.
It must be noted that battles in Quest Mode have certain rules that make them unlike battles in Story Mode:
- Enemies can't be invited.
- Allies cannot gain EXP or levels.
- Allies cannot die permanently.
- There are no buried treasures or war trophies.
- Equipment won can only be equipped in Story Mode.
Quest Mode Maps Edit
Numida Chronology Edit
- Obtain: Clear 4th story battle (Formido).
- Fee: None.
- Goth Reward: 1,200 (max).
- Leader: Calais (Ninja).
- Foes: Cleric, Archer, Ninja, Soldier, Griffin.
- Foe Lv.: 15.
- Map: Numida Swamp.
No entrance fee means that players short on Goth can earn some freely here. The battle map consists of high movement, low DEF enemies, coupled with the sluggish swamp-type terrain, it's recommended to bring high movement, ranged and spellcaster units.
The best possible victory treasure here are the elemental mails (Nathalork, Peregrine, Phoenix and Leviathan Mail) and elemental bows (Sandstorm, Flame, Tundra and Thunder Bow), which far outclass anything that can be bought in Story Mode at the time this map is unlocked. Unfortunately, sword rewards are lacking, but Volcaetus (spear) can be won here.
Epic of Tinea Edit
- Obtain: Clear 11th story battle (Aquila).
- Fee: 3,000G.
- Goth Reward: 5,000 (max).
- Leader: Khiel (Valkyrie).
- Foes: Archer, Cerberus, Knight, Hawkman, Red Dragon, Wizard.
- Foe Lv.: 20.
- Map: Tinea (mountain).
Like Aquila before it, the land is steep and crossed by rivers of lava, so trudging units will have a hard time moving. Humans enemies tend to have low DEF, but monster enemies are tanky enough to pose a problem for battles with the "defeat everyone" victory condition.
The best possible victory treasure here is the Glass Pumpkin, which can be sold in Scabellum's Secret Shop to unlock the Firecrest. Other treasures include Prox (axe), flails (Flame Flail, Hammer of Tears, etc,) and thrusting swords (Needle of Light, Peridot Sword, Dragon Gem Sword).
Cave Exploration Edit
- Obtain: Clear 19th story battle (Ostorea Crypt).
- Fee: 6,000G.
- Goth Reward: 10,000 (max).
- Leader: Zweig (Warlock).
- Foes: Dragon Zombie, Earth Dragon, Ghost, Hawkman, Siren, Witch.
- Foe Lv.: 25.
- Map: Eastern Cavern.
This is the point where Quest Mode starts to get complicated. The player's team starts at the bottom of the map, while the enemy team starts at the top, coupled with the already steep terrain it's suggested to bring flying units, Warp Shoes or the Teleport spell. Most enemies are average for their level, but the Dragon Zombie has Necklace of Resist (making him immune to spells) and Zweig can cast Petrifying Cloud, making both especially troublesome. Rarely, a random knight can have excessive DEF (350+) thanks to his rare equipment, so consider bringing units that can cast Divine Radiance or Petrifying Cloud to eliminate him quickly.
The Necromancy spell can be won as a victory treasure by earning 10,000G (Kill leader, 1-3 turns). This spell allows to transmigrate KO'd allies into Ghosts or zombie dragons. It's necessary to gain some of the most elusive emblems.
The best possible victory treasure here are the Warp Shoes and Warp Ring, which give teleporting-type movement to any unit that equips them. Other treasures include rare katanas (Yomogi-u, Yu-giri) and the Grincer Coat (body armor, part of the Enchanted Hunting Wares set).
Batraal Chronology Edit
- Obtain: Clear Cave Exploration in under 10 turns.
- Fee: 15,000 G.
- Goth Reward: 22,000 (max).
- Leader: Byron (Swordmaster).
- Foes: Cerberus, Dragoon, Gorgon, Hawkman, Knight, Priest, Siren, Vrtra.
- Foe Lv.: 30.
- Map:
Another steep map; as before, bring flying, warping and Teleport using units. The map is one long thin path with a dangerous abyss in the middle, and each team starts in opposite directions. Byron has average DEF and can be easily killed with two Atropos strikes, although an enemy Priest may complicate matters. Note that a Hawkman with Brionac (may inflict instant death) can appear on this battle, and the Vrtra's -1 Mental Gauge ability can lower skill damage.
There are many great victory treasures to be gained from this map, the greatest being the Lachesis skill, which is a ranged Atropos-like skill for bow wielders; it can only be learned once, but if there are no bow-wielders in the team it can be declined, it will reappear as a victory reward until an unit learns it. Other treasures include rare headgear (Freude Helm, Holy Crown), Reincarnation (item), Dowsing Rod (senses buried treasure), Sacred Stone of Bliss (item, revives an unit once), Balmung (2H sword) and the Sherwood Bow (part of the Enchanted Hunting Wares set).
Do note that only one special skill can be learned per character (ex: If an unit already knows Atropos it won't be able to receive Lachesis).
Tundra Geology Edit
- Obtain: Clear Batraal Chronology in under 5 turns.
- Fee: 28,000G.
- Goth Reward: 38,000 (max).
- Leader: Dionyde (Priest).
- Foes: Fairy, Gorgon, Knight, Naga, Siren, Vrtra, Mushus
- .
- Foe Lv.: 35.
- Map: Ancient Ruins.
The final battle map, and also the hardest. Dionyde's equipment can boost her defense to 350+, plus she can use Divine Radiance and Heal Plus. Lachesis and Atropos help immensely here, as does Teleport, Time Flux, Fluid Magic and Divine Radiance. Surrounding Dionyde prevents her from healing herself (the AI prioritises not healing the player's units), so focus tactics are recommended. As before, this is a steep, wide map, so bring units with high movement, flyers and warpers. Dionyde will often try to hide in a corner of the map to lessen attack opportunities, so chase her before she gets the chance.
Some impressive equiment can be gained as victory treasures here, including the Oracion (1H sword, the best non-Snapdragon weapon in the game), Saint's Shield (part of the Divine Armaments set), Southern Cross (body armor, part of the Divine Armaments set), Kerykeion (staff) and Brionac (spear, can inflict instant death). Also, clearing the map once gives the final special skill, Clotho; this one is for spear-wielders and does piercing damage two rows in front, making it a good option for units equipping Zephyrus or Longicolnis.
Note: Possibly a bug: Dionyde can attack with a Frozen Axe without having one equipped.
