Out of Scope
Some topics are out of scope for this forum.
1. Bugs, Product Decisions, and Feedback: The purpose of this forum is not to ask the product team why decisions were made and to ask them to make other changes. That feedback belongs in Connect. The purpose of this forum is to help you out with specific issues, if possible. Please post your feedback via Connect:
Rules of Conduct
· Relevance to Topics: We encourage you to keep your postings as close to the subject as possible.
· Respect: Please be respectful of other participants, and their contributions; avoiding insults, demeaning remarks and slurs.
· Tolerance: Please don't assume someone's curtness was meant to insult, slur, or demean you.
· Confidentiality: Confidential information should not be posted. This is a publicly available forum.
· Appropriate Language: Please keep the conversation on a professional level, avoiding any hint of profanity in your interactions.
· Advertising/Solicitation: Advertisements should not be posted, and will be removed.
Forum Moderators may, at their discretion, edit posts for clarity, readability and inappropriate language; split post into separate threads when appropriate; and delete post that do not positively contribute to the thread. Failure to comply with these 'Rules of Conduct' may result in your posts being edited to remove the offending comments, censure, or expulsion from participating in the Forums. The bottom line is: this Forum should feel like a 'safe' place to ask hard questions that invoke passionate responses.
Marking AnswersBy their very nature, many database design questions will not have a easily decernible 'answer'. You are encouraged to give folks 'credit' for helping you when appropriate. If someone's response was 'Helpful', use the 'Vote as Helpful' button. If a response answered some part of your question, or provided you one or more clues that led you to a solution, then use the 'Mark as Answer' option. Just as a thread may evolve into multiple questions, it may also have more than one 'Answer'.
Welcome to the Database Design Forum
This is a Forum for questions and discussions about database designs for Microsoft technologies, including: SQL Server, Access, SQL Azure, SQL Express, SQL Compact, etc. Often Database Designs will be generic and can be ported to any vendor's technology. Design problems that are best solved with other technologies will be welcomed and addressed to the best of our knowledge and ability.
We ask that you recognize that database design is a mixture of art and science. You may receive conflicting suggestions, for there can be multiple paths to a workable solution. You will have to use your own judgment and knowledge of your business requirements to determine the best solution for your particular problem. The 'right' design is compounded by many factors, including business, regulatory, hardware/software requirements, as well as staff expertise. We also encourage you to share your experiences with a particular design issue if it will serve to help others encountering similar problems.
In order to receive useful responses, please spend some time and properly present your scenario. Attempts to 'save time and effort' by cutting out parts of the scenario will often lead to wasted time and effort as the suggestions have to be discarded because they don't work with other parts of the unseen puzzle.
But there are limits to what you can expect from volunteers through a disconnected medium. The questions most likely to receive a good and targeted answer, are those that present a small problem, that give a very clear description of that problem within its context, and that are placed by people with a fair understanding of the subject who need help getting over a few nasty bumps. The questions that are almost impossible to answer satisfactorily are those that present a huge problem, with no clear description, and asked by someone totally new to the subject matter.
We hope that you will understand when we say that most of us that volunteer our time on this Forum do so in order to help folks learn. We will be pleased if you find the Forum to be useful. However, it is difficult or impossible for us to engage with folks privately. We don't have time to do both, and our commitment is help folks using the Forums.
Do not hesitate to read all of the threads, join in the discussions, offer your own experiences and information, and ask questions to increase your knowlege. Seek out blogs from those who write in a manner that you appreciate, and consider reviewing the Database Design Resources for additional guidance and help.

In 2009, I was new to the area and wanted to create a community. I lived in Germany and speak fairly fluent German. I was no longer using the language professionally and missed the interaction.

FS#265 - Uzbl-tabbed freezes on some pages
DetailsI'm running archlinux with python2, uzbl-git 20110501. Running uzbl-tabbed from the terminal, I can browse without a problem, but occasionally when browsing a page uzbl will completely hang and become unresponsive, ultimately drawing a blank screen. Terminal output will show:
(uzbl-core:8385): GLib-WARNING **: GError set over the top of a previous GError or uninitialized memory. This indicates a bug in someone's code. You must ensure an error is NULL before it's set. The overwriting error message was: Error resolving 'upload.wikimedia.org': Name or service not known uzbl-browser does not have this problem whatsoever, for some reason it is restricted to uzbl-tabbed. Please let me know what other information I can contribute. Thanks. |
This task depends upon

Comment by murchik (murchik) -
this was tracked down to uzbl-core getting stuck in a flush after writing a event.
Yeah, such crap happens sometimes. Some keybinding to kill current tab instance can become helpful. I'm doing it manually by kill -9 by now.

Vrapper is an Eclipse plugin which acts as a wrapper for Eclipse text editors to provide a Vim-like input scheme for moving around and editing text. Unlike other plugins which embed Vim in Eclipse, Vrapper imitates the behavior of Vim while still using whatever editor you have opened in the workbench. The goal is to have the comfort and ease which comes with the different modes, complex commands, and count/operator/motion combinations which are the key features behind editing with Vim, while preserving the powerful features of the different Eclipse text editors, like code generation and refactoring.
libunibreak is an implementation of the line breaking and word breaking algorithms as described in Unicode Standard Annex 14 and Unicode Standard Annex 29. It is a superset of, and supersedes, liblinebreak. It is designed to be used in a generic text renderer. FBReader is one real-world example.
ExactScan is a versatile document capture application for home offices and workgroups. It is designed from the ground up for high-speed document scanners and can easily handle hundreds of images per minute, including duplex scans.

Aephea is a text-based authoring tool for HTML. It enforces well-formedness with a simpler and stricter TeX-like syntax and provides useful extensions and abstractions with facilities for adding new ones. It emphasizes a single unified approach that stays close to HTML itself and promotes and utilizes CSS extensively. Abstractions such as dictionary stacks, arithmetic, and iteration are part of Aephea.
GNU Source-highlight produces a document with syntax highlighting when given a source file. It handles many languages, e.g., Java, C/C++, Prolog, Perl, PHP3, Python, Flex, HTML, and other formats, e.g., ChangeLog and log files, as source languages and HTML, XHTML, DocBook, ANSI color escapes, LaTeX, and Texinfo as output formats. Input and output formats can be specified with a regular expression-oriented syntax.
PyBison is a sophisticated yet easy-to-use parser creation toolkit for Python that interfaces directly to Bison (yacc)-based parsers. It provides full LALR(1) grammar support, allowing for simple parsing tasks through to writing compilers for high-level languages. Parser code is automatically generated from rules within user-created Parser classes (written in Python), and then, compiled, yacc'ed and linked into a shared library, which is loaded into the running process. All this happens automatically. When the parser runs, it connects directly with the yyparse() routine, and takes event callbacks upon parse targets being reached.

I am going to Zambia for 6 weeks, London for 4 nights, and then Vietnam for one month. I know I want between a 50 and 60L pack and I know I love Gregory packs. I am going back-and-forth between the Cairn 58 or the Deva 60. Any recommendations/suggestions/tip, etc. would help.
Thank you!
Where can l buy Veloura and BellaGenix in hoi chi min, district 1.???
Hello, Any suggestions for places to get laundry done in West Lake? We have just moved out of our hotel to The Somerset Apartments in West Lake, they offer a laundry service but it is almost as expensive as we were paying the the Sofitel Metropole!
Nam Du is in Kien Giang province. Because it is rather isolated, foreigners usually don't know about it. I'm having a plan to go there for relaxing, taking photos and really wanna find some friends to go along with. Here are some photos from a blog I found : hoangtran.photoshelter.com/g...
If you're interested, contact me via email : firstname.lastname@example.com and discuss about what time would work best for us. Looking forward to it.
where is the best place for christmas dinner in da nang
Hi there!
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to go from phu quoc island to koh rong in Cambodia without returning to HCMC?
I will be travelling alone and would prefer to use buses.. Or can you suggest another kind of transportation, safe enough for a woman travelling alone? Thanks in advance!!
There's this place in HCMC whereby it is a centralized place with more than 100 stalls/shops selling pharmaceutical and OTC products. Can someone provide the name and address so as a local taxi can take me there?
thank you.
I'll be visiting Vietnam in early February (yes I'm aware it's tet) I'm planning on leaving Nha Trang on the 10th and was originally going to get a flight to Da nang. Now I'm wondering whether it's worth spending 2 night in Dalat in order to do a canyoning tour which includes abseiling down the waterfalls. I was wandering if anyone had done this tour (groovy gecko or other company) and if you would recommend visiting Dalat mainly for this experience?
Also a lot of people are saying 5-6 hours from Nha Trang to Dalat while others are saying there is a new road that takes 3-4 hours. The earliest the bus leaves is 7am and the latest flight from Nha Trang to Da nang is 12:10 is this a feasible amount of time to travel and arrive at airport with enough time? Would a private car be quicker and any idea of the cost?
I have seen a few posts recommending to wait to book a tour of Ha Long Bay through our hotel in Hanoi, as it will be cheaper than booking in advance. While I don't have money to burn, the prices I'm seeing on-line for some of the upper-level tours don't look they will break the bank. Any comments on whether to book early or later?
Approximately how much would a taxi (for two persons) cost from Ho Chi Minh Airport to central My Tho? We will be landing at a time when the last bus of the day has already gone.
May i know if the vietnam air bus to city is still USD 2? i'm visiting a friend staying in Hoang Quoc Viet road. From my research, it seem that i could take bus no. 7 near International Centre of Science & Technology. do i need to change a bus somewhere. If you could give an estimated traveling time it'll be great!
How to look for bus stops in Hanoi? I hardly remember seeing any signs, but maybe i wasn't looking hard enough.
Thank you!
I have been exploring various companies for a day trip to Hue from our cruise ship, and a day trip on Halong Bay when we dock at Halong Bay. I've received quotes from Handspan travel and Asia Tourism Holiday for the Hue trip, and Paradise Travel for the Halong Bay cruise. Has anyone had experience with any of these companies?
Where do I buy branded goods at factory outlet prices?
the Galaxy premium cruise - any feedback on the route it takes and or itinerary?
Is it better to visit Bai Tu Long bay or Halong bay? our visit will be in the month of February.
I will be visiting HCM on this coming 15 Nov 2013. Is it safe to travel there at this time?
There's this place in HCMC whereby it is a centralized place with more than 100 stalls/shops selling pharmaceutical and OTC products. Can someone provide the name and address so as a local taxi can take me there?
thank you.
Have just heard that you can no longer pick up entry visa to Vietnam (HCM) on arrival after the 16/12/13 even with approval letter, must be a full visa on arrival, is that correct?
Hi! I will be going to Vietnam next January and I am a bit concerned about getting visa on arrival instead through the Embassy. I've read you can get a sort of invitation letter from a Vietnamese travel agency paying about 15-20 usd and then get the visa on arrival paying the stamping fee of about 45usd: does anyone tried this recently? did you get any problem at the airport (both leaving from your Country and when arriving)?
Can you recommend a travel agency? I saw in Internet there are really a loooot!
Thank you in advance for your time and help!
Hello, Im goin to Ho chi minh on 19of december. What are the must go places? And since ho chi minh is known for its tailor, what is the tailor shop that you guys recommend? I might want to make a few suits! With cheap price and good quality
I am traveling to Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos early next year for 5 months arriving and leaving from Ho Chi Minh. My plan is to go straight up into Cambodia once I arrive in Vietnam and travel round Cambodia for 1 month and then up into Laos for a month and finally go back into Vietnam from Laos and travel down from Hanoi back to Ho Chi Minh city for 3 months. Does this pose a problem for Visas? As I understand it the longest Visa that I can get for Vietnam is a 90 day one. Therefore I plan to get back into Vietnam before my 90 day visa runs out and extend it. Firstly is this possible to extend a 3 month tourist visa for another 3 months? and secondly how do I go about doing so?
Would appreciate any advice.
I will travel to Hanoi in December, and after visiting the city and Halong Bay, would like to proceed to Ninh Binh.
I was wondering if it is possible to get directly from Halong Bay to Ninh Binh in the afternoon, after finishing a one night trip in the bay, instead of going back to Hanoi with the tour?
Is it possible by public transportation?
What would be a fair price by taxi?
I found one offer of a hotel in Ninh Binh with a price of 70 USD (canhdieuhotel.com.vn/Service...)
Is it possible to make it cheaper?
Thanks for your thoughts.
Tell me all the 'Must-See' spots of Vietnam!
Planning a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. Before a big trip, I like to "get in the mood" with movies placed in, or filmed in or near my destination. Aside from strictly Vietnam war movies, I've come up with The Quiet American, Indochine, the Killing Fields, plus I think one of the Indiana Jones movies was partially filmed in Angkor Wat. I realize movies are just fiction, but they're fun to spur the imagination.
Any other suggestions?
I am planning to visit Ha Long bay on March end, 2013 from Bangkok. As of now my plan is - flight to Hanoi Airport & stay there in Ha long for 1 night..
But I am really not sure how to go to Ha long bay from Hanoi. I am not sure whether I should take a bus or may be I can take a taxi if it is not too costly.
And, Please let me know if you have any suggestion regarding hotels there.
Please help !!
Can any one reccommend this place? Looking for low-key place to stay with family (two young children)...
How cold will it be in the area in late October? Will I need a heavy jacket at night?

Iraq: As American Troops Leave, Persecuted Christians Flee
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, the head of the Iraqi government, has said that no American troops should remain in Iraq at the end of 2011. "The last American soldier will leave Iraq…. This agreement is not subject to extension, not subject to alteration. It is sealed." The Prime Minister also granted assurances that his nation will not be pulled into an alliance with Iran, even though that is what some Iraqi politicians want (Iran and Afghanistan have recently signed a memorandum of understanding which brings those two nations into closer cooperation).
Iran's Dreary Power Struggles Continue
The First Vice President of Iran, Mohammed Reza Rahimi, one of the closest political allies of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, faces charges of corruption in Iran. The story, which follows on the heels of a recent agreement signed between Iran and Afghanistan, reveals just how unsavory international politics can be.
Chinese Government Squeezes "House Christians"
China has declared that so-called "House Christians" are a cult and must be suppressed. The State Administration for Religious Affairs, which is the Communist watchdog agency in China responsible for supervising religious activity, claims 7 million members in its Three Self-Patriotic Movement (TSPM) and Pew Research estimates that there are 70 million Chinese Protestants who worship in their own home churches, ungoverned by the state. There is a similar split between state "catholicism," with about 5 million Chinese, and 12 million who follow traditional Catholic belief in the religious primacy of the Pope.
China Celebrates 30th Anniversary of Fetal Genocide
Totalitarian nations have always viewed procreation as an activity that is state business, not the hopes and dreams of ordinary people. Nazi Germany encouraged the right sort of people (in the eyes of the State) to have as many children as they could, and then made sure that the wrong sort of people could not procreate at all. The Fascists, less obsessed with race than the Nazis, also encouraged Italian families to have as many children as possible.
Monstrous Mao
Frank Dikotter, an historian from Hong Kong, has been allowed wide access to Chinese Communist Party archives. Speaking at the Independent Literary Festival, Dikotter described Mao Zedong as the greatest mass murderer in human history. According to the historian, the entire death toll from the Second World War was 55 million people. Mao alone was responsible for the death of a mind-numbing 55 million in the years after the war.
Islam and the Problems of Nation Building
The culture, the religion, and the attitude toward government of people ultimately determine how a particular nation behaves. The Americans of 1789 had a culture of self-reliance (which ended the "need" for much of what the world today has as government) and Americans also combined a wholesome capacity for self-defense with a desire for domestic tranquility.
The Gold Standard in Malaysia
Americans are rightly troubled by much in modern Islam. There is one area, however, in which America might find laudable approaches from Muslims. The government of Kelantan, a state within the nation of Malaysia, has introduced a new monetary system that is based upon standardized weights of gold and silver coins. These dinar and dirham coins were once common within the old Ottoman Empire, just as species — gold and silver money — was once common within most of the civilized world.
No Real Justice for the Killing Fields
Reuters reported that a United Nations tribunal has tried and sentenced Kaing Guek Eav, the first Khmer Rouge commander to face charges of crimes against humanity for murder, rape, and similar horrific crimes.
Coronation in Communist North Korea
What is the political ideology that governs the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea? Communism, its government proclaims. Communism, on paper, rejects dynastic rule. The party may govern the state and the state may be given almost unlimited power over the lives of its citizens (or, rather, subjects), but those who rise to high positions in government or party jobs earned that honor by slavish devotion to the Communist Party — or so the story goes.
Kyrgyz Fighting Sounds Like the Old World
Ethnic violence is rocking Kyrgyzstan. Uzbek citizens of the central Asian nation are alleging atrocities committed against them by Kyrgyz gangs roaming those parts of their nation in which ethnic Uzbeks form a significant part of the nation. The death toll so far stands at 117 killed with many more homes burned and Uzbeks injured. This is particularly curious because Uzbekistan has almost five times as many people as Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan has twice the land area as Kyrgyzstan.

High School Hierarchy: 6-10
SLAMonline ranks the top pro-producing high schools of all time.
This is the fifth installment of a six-part series featuring the best high school basketball programs in America. For more of SLAMonline's High School Hierarchy, check out the archive.
by Patrick Hayes / @patrick_hayes
10. Boys High School, Brooklyn, NY
NBA Players Produced: Mel Davis, Si Green, Connie Hawkins, Lenny Wilkens
Combined Experience: 37 seasons
NBA/ABA Championships Won: 2
All-Star Appearances: 14
Hall of Famers: 2
Total Points: 91
Boys' contributions to NBA lore? The second winningest coach in NBA history who also happens to be a Hall of Fame player, an all-time great who had to sue the NBA just to get into the League, and a player who had as much post-basketball NBA success as he did as a player with the Knicks in the 1970s.
You've probably heard of: It's really a tossup. How do you choose between Lenny Wilkens, a Hall of Fame player and one of the great point guards of his era who went on to briefly become the NBA's all-time leader in coaching wins (until Don Nelson surpassed him) and Connie Hawkins, the predecessor to today's high-flying wing players?
One thing both players had in common, however, is that their high school basketball careers at Boys didn't necessarily predict their future successes. Wilkens' experience was recounted in Sports Illustrated:
"Constructing the paradigm of athletic reputations begins early, and Wilkens is still suffering from his original sin—that he had no high school publicity on which to build. He had made the Boys High team—last man on a 15-man squad—as a freshman but did not go out for the team the next couple of years and, in fact, started cutting classes and generally drifting until his widowed mother put her foot down and refused him permission to quit school and join the Marines. Wilkens took a certain renewed interest in academics at this point and set his sights on going to the City College of New York. Tommy Davis was the all-city star at Boys High and he knew Lenny from way back, in stick-ball mostly, when Davis and the Decatur Street Boys used to come up against Wilkens and the Bainbridge Street Boys. Davis prevailed upon Lenny to come out for the Boys High team again. Still, Wilkens was a mid-year graduate and played only half the schedule, missing out on all the city tournaments and publicity. But a few people had seen just enough to tell Joe Mullaney, then the coach of Providence College, and Lenny accepted a Providence scholarship in the fall of '56."
Hawkins, on the other hand, was on the team throughout high school, but didn't make an impact early on: "Hawkins wasn't an instant star at Boys High School, playing little as an emaciated 6-3, 140-pound sophomore."
He had a huge senior season, however, and played at Iowa. But a mistaken connection between Hawkins and a man involved in a point-shaving scandal caused no NBA teams to draft him for three years of being Draft-eligible. Then, he was banned from the League outright and had to win an anti-trust lawsuit just to gain entrance into the NBA.
Once he did, he quickly became one of the most exciting players in the League and had a Hall of Fame career.
Don't forget about: Mel Davis played three seasons with his home state Knicks in the 1970s, playing alongside some of the greatest players in the game, as he recounted to NBA.com in 2005:
"To grow up in New York, attend St. John's University, and be drafted by the team you grew up rooting for all your life….it was a tremendous experience. Also very unique: I think this has only happened with three players in history, Mark Jackson and myself being two of them …
"Willis Reed was my roommate. Willis, The Pearl, Jerry Lucas, and Clyde are close friends of mine till this day. Bill Bradley and I had breakfast together just last week. It was a very special group of men, all unique in his own way. I don't think there's ever going to be another team like that. They understood the game from the neck up. They were all skilled as individuals, but played the game together as a unit and played for the team."
Although Davis didn't have a long-term NBA basketball career, he had a successful post-hoops career, working for Pepsi and eventually serving a stint as Executive Director of the National Basketball Retired Players Association. Davis also had a long-running youth basketball camp in New York.
Random fact: Most people are familiar with some of the most high profile NBA Draft gaffes ever: Bowie over Jordan, Darko over Melo/Wade/Bosh and possibly soon to be added, Oden over Durant.
But those stories pale in comparison to how the Boston Celtics, who had the second pick in the 1956 NBA Draft, ended up getting Bill Russell at No. 2 and convincing the Rochester Royals to take Boys alum Si Green No. 1 overall. Dave Berri of Wages of Wins recounts how it went down:
The Celtics entered the 1956 Draft with the seventh pick. This pick was sent to the St. Louis Hawks – along with Ed Macauley and Cliff Hagan, for the second pick. It was believed that the Rochester Royals – who had the first pick – might want to take Russell. Auerbach, though, had a secret weapon. The owner of the Celtics, Walter Brown, was also the president of the Ice Capades. Brown called up the owner of the Royals– Lee Harrison — with the following offer: Brown would send the Ice Capades to Rochester for one week if the Royals would pass on Russell. Harrison agreed and with the first overall choice in the 1956 Draft the Royals selected Si Green, a guard from Duquesne.
Green actually carved out a solid nine-year career in the NBA, although the Ice Capades only stayed a week in Rochester and Green didn't last much longer, only playing 33 games with the franchise. And ironically, Green actually spent his final NBA season as Russell's teammate in Boston.

It's almost funny to consider that a week ago you could've been running around in short sleeves outdoors.
Since then, southeastern Wisconsin has seen subzero temps and a string of 'Alberta clippers' that have brought snow to the area every day except Wednesday — and the snow will return on Thursday.
Patch's media partners at WISN have posted a Winter Storm Warning from the National Weather Service, which is expected to bring 4-8 inches of snow to the area. The forecasted storm for Thursday, however, will bring snow that's the wet and heavy variety.
While it's sunny Wednesday, conditions will deteriorate later this evening, as sleet and freezing rain may mix with the snow from Jefferson County south to the Illinois border, with light ice accumulations possible. The Winter Storm Warning actually goes into effect at 10 a.m. Thursday and extends to midnight Thursday night.
Although light snow is expected to develop Wednesday night, the bulk of the snow is expected throughout the day on Thursday, bringing about 5 to 8 inches total.

In International Red with Black, with only 42 miles. Running, all original, unmodified truck with excellent metal work condition before restoration work was started in 2002 and completed in 2003. Powder coated frame, axles, suspension parts, running boards and wheels were powder coated. NOS parts were collected over 4 years. International did not use a matching number system on their engines and transmissions. Electrical system has been modified only slightly for safety reasons. The exterior lights on the truck are 12v, everything else stayed 6v. Part of private collection and shown rarely, always stored in climate controlled building. Pictures available of car before and during restoration. The first year of the new D series was 1937. It represented a change from the old boxy design to the sleek, modern lines of the future. The D series was the front runner of this new look for all truck brands being made at the time. The new sleek design included torpedo headlights, sweeping fenders with tails, rounded nose/grill, two piece arched windshield, retooled/modern instrument cluster and more chrome than ever before. This truck has every option (factory and dealer) known to exist for the model year. Examples: torpedo turn signals on fenders and cab lights on top of cab (both very rare), chrome front bumper, chrome hub caps with logo, windshield visor with chrome surround, fender skirts and a rare grain bed. The grain bed is one of two know to exist today and was manufactured by Lifetime Body in Salina KS. It was sold through International dealers in the Midwest. The International logo on the tail gate was only produced on the D series in 1937, no other year.Car Shipping... Direct to your door!

Thread: Wrenched.........
Oh... what a match..
what should i say.. for me as a spectacular it's just 90 minutes of *** with badminton. Such strong atletic beautiful play remains in the memory for years..
what about LCW.. badly guy.. i wasn't sure who I want to be a winner today.. but after 15:15 in 3rd set i was with a heart for Malaysian..
so pity.. 2 match points..
exactly said about Federer
It is indeed sad. LCW was very good up until the final. He had played with confidence and authority. Then he met LD, and suddenly you can sense that he lost a little bit of the mental strength. And it all culminated when he had 2 match points but couldn't switch to a higher gear to convert. .... Of course, the rest is history when LD converted on his one and only match point...... LCW is simply not as aggressive and hungry to win as much as LD. It's all in their personality, which is unchangeable, and can't be learned or taught. That is the difference between LCW and LD.
Last edited by visor; 08-14-2011 at 06:38 PM.
Actually when LCW beats LD we feel this immediately that he is under control and good mood. Not only strength and force.
Today I felt only that he is playing brilliant, fast, powerful.. but I didn't see he's controling situation as a potencial winner, i didn't see he enjoy a game..
There's a glaring Elephant in the room that everyone - including foaming-at-the-mouth patriot Malaysians - don't really seem to be aware of. Read this slowly so it sinks in.....
In our lifetime, China will own EVERY SPORT THERE IS.
Okay let me clarify - every sport that has commercial leverage within the populous. Those that don't eventually will - it will just take longer.
The reason is simple. China has the recruitment network, and a talent base, that every other country doesn't even come close to. And they have the burgeoning middle class to keep the coffers stoked. The only thing that keeps countries like Denmark and Malaysia in the game is the sheer popularity of the sport.
The harsh reality is.....make the most of it.
Win or Lose, I love LCW, and it's not dependent on him winning. He's the hard working, human face of Badminton. He has frailties and weaknesses as do us all. Part of the joy of watching him play is the playing out of his 'self', and actually watching him grow and develop as the years roll on. I like the fact that he clearly has nerves. I like the fact that he has a new found confidence and less passive type of play than he had, even a year ago. At the end of the day, it's good television.
The flip side to that coin, is Lin Dan. A methodical by-product of the Chinese sport-military complex. A poster boy for the ruling party - pure propaganda. Just look at the cheering minions, even in London.
It would be easy to argue I think, that LCW in a different environment would be better than Lin Dan. Technically and physically they're both on-par, but the difference is largely the external factors. For example, LCW actually has to work for a living, so he plays more competitions than LD, he works harder than LD. Badminton China has an overall gameplan for cherry-picked tournaments for LD, as well as a large repository of 'domestiques' to muddy the waters, which we're seeing clearly in the lead up to the Olympics.
The thing that I've noticed even at a club level is that there is really a lack of the appreciation for the sport, and like all human endeavours, there's a visceral humanity to everything that we do, and when it's taken out of the equation, we all lose. Who could get joy from watching Lin Dan win, aside from the callous, well indoctrinated, the brutal? There is no joy, no melodrama, no journey. Just by-product.
Malaysians? Enjoy it for what it is, while you can.
agree that China has a huge population to select from, but you are making it sound like Malaysia is this 3rd world country that badminton are played in rice patties and back alleys. doesn't Malaysia also have sports school, have training system in every state, have a national team that pays stipend and living accomodation for every player? perhaps not as strong a system as China, but there is a system in place. why is that any inferior to the Chinese system? why cannot Malaysia make it as good a China (except for the size of the pool, i guess).
also you made it sounds like LCW is on poverty. he is very rich, doesn't he drive a Nissan GTR? that's an expensive car. doesn't he have lands that the country give him? LCW also has sponsors and given his fame he has other sources of income i am sure.
life may not be as good as Lin Dan, but he is extremely well off. even i as a professional engineer i cannot a GTR.
That's right LD, do your little military salute. Good boy.
Not at all Kwun. Size of the pool - 27 vs 1335. You do the math.
That MS final was intense. I actually feel a bit ill after watching it.
Kwun, I'm not sure you're acknowledging the systemic differences - you're only focussing on the money. 'Resourses' isn't what sort of car you drive, or if you have to pay for your own hotels. He with the best toys doesn't win, and it's not about GDP either (not to mention I made no mention whatsoever about world economics, so I don't know where you got the idea I was calling Malaysia '3rd World'.)
Regardless, we've yet to see the best of LCW. The new found confidence, of taking charge and being more in command (vs his old passive - agressive self) is awesome to see....and like I said, part of the great human drama that makes him a better than Lin Dan.
A very intellectual statement of you. Sad is the ideal word to sum it all at this point of time for LCW, his fans and even to the extend of his critics who felt for the man himself.
But his time will come if he just hang in there for a little longer... all the signs are already there and eventually he will get something big at the end of his career for a consistent and hard working chap.Last edited by flite; 08-14-2011 at 09:07 PM.
some smart mouth words you have there: " A methodical by-product of the Chinese sport-military complex. A poster boy for the ruling party - pure propagand"
... blah blan blah ... Typical western biased BS
LD worked hard & trained hard just like LCW, and won this match fair and square, THAT'S IT!
I thought to go off mode after the game last night... I really felt so sick since the beginning of the match to the end and even now, I think I got some low blood pressure going on... my eyes sting for tears but they won't come out... not yet... I really feel bad and sad for LCW... he did what he could and I know this is not the end of it... truly, I don't feel any emotion to watch any more red flags winning tourneys... MF is right... we need more of others to win for the sake of the game... I can't imagine not having badminton in any major events in the near future... it's so depressing...
He said he's coming back to get it right... there will be doubt of whether can he win it next time... but if it's me, I'll definitely coming back... lost is dampening to ones spirit, true... but get back up... consistency wise, LCW's the best in the world for me and I believe many others feel the same... major wise, you know who is...
Regardless, I will always support him... always!
Era, please don;t cry or else I cry with you sure the malaysian sun will come out blazing hot and a new dawn will come, there is still hope cos' OLY gold is bigger target. Have a beer and sleep well....just avoid Tsingtao beer, those are Chinese stuff and LD is Chinese player so don't support Tsingtao beer even those they taste good...on second thought, cry out loud if it makes you feel better, I will cry along with you
twobeer liked this post
"Why in the world is there Zhuge Liang when there is I, Zhou Yu?"
I don't understand why someone can be so negative about the outcome of the men single final. LCW actual played very well and leading most of the time in the game. I think luck was on lin dan side that day.The win is too marginal. Not that i want to rubbish the victory, Lin dan deserves the victory. Fair and Square.I mean when you look at lin dan's face, you can see that he is not sure he can win either. Both of them nervous. Both of them fight untill the end.
I am a big LCW fan. I am a little disappointed but I am okay. I feel proud that LCW achieved so much and I am not here to argue LCW should have won and LD doesn't deserves the title. This kind of arguement is nonsense.
I think LCW is the BEST badminton player on earth. He is a lone fighter without the best teammates to support him and spar with him like Lin dan. If Lin dan and LCW change position, it could have been very different. BUT there is no " if".
By the way, talk about producing good players, the POOL makes hell lots of different. It is one of the fundamental.
Malaysia has to improve in badminton in many aspects. no doubt about that. the leadership, management, funding, performance management, team culture and all that.I will be the first to pinpoint the leadership of BAM and team culture needs an overhaul. BUT anyone can see that we can not compare to the pool of talents to China, and even indonesia. The size of the talent pool does matter.
It is just like economy. Look at china, India and Indonesia. Among other things, size does matters.
If it doesn't matters, Hong Kong and Singapore wouldn't have to import a lot of badminton players form China and Indonesia.
"smart mouth words"? WTF is that?
I never said anything even remotely along the lines of "LCW trained harder than LD and deserved it more" or "The match was not won fairly" so I have NFI what you're talking about.
Instead of self-righteous indignation, how about trying something...I dunno.....like a counter argument?

Pros: They have the sound that WoW me letting me enjoy Music without me becoming analytical and consequently up not enjoying music
Cons: I don't have any compalins about the 4.A
Well this is my first (second I have the 8.A and I wrote this same review for the 8.A since I compared them both) review ever and I am doing it because it would be unfair of my part not to talk about this two excellent pieces of audio after THE EXCELLENT customer service I received from John, and I know some of you might get mad about this review since I am not going to focus just on their Sound Quality, why? because It's been said enough about the sound signature of these two iem's that you pretty much have an idea about their sound but the main reason being that since music gear became my hobby I did not enjoy music that much because I was always looking for the perfect sound in headphones or earphones and I came to realized that there is not a perfect headphone or earphone since every time I got a new pair of iem's or headphones I was like "the mids of this iem does not compare to the mids of this other iem", etc etc etc so I always ended up not enjoying the music but analyzing it.
So I just wanted a good set of iem's that would WoW me and that I could take with me every place I went, so I decided to get a flagship custom iem and to sold my Seinnheiser HD800 and Ultrasone Edition 8, I am someone who likes to take long walks and to think about life and I could not take with me the HD 800 besides I was tired of dealing with desktop amps and the later because I was afraid of scratching them and I did not like to draw too much attention to myself especially here in Miami , and having had the Shure 535 I knew that by getting some custom flagship model things could only get better.
So I started investigating about them and sending e-mails different ciem companies, asking them questions about their products, and that's how I got to meet John , he responded every e-mail within hours and sometimes within minutes I had sent them; as a matter of fact, sometimes I was the one who could not reply to him, and this was important to me because of the investment I was going to make, the other companies I e-mailed replied to me a week after or a couple of days later, I won't say who they are since I don't know how busy they were also because I work in a custom glass shop and I know it's not easy to keep up with the customers, but the help I got from John was enough for me to go with Heir Audio that I decided to get the 4.A and the 8.A, and it was the best decision I made in 2012 music wise.
I have them since March this year and I am writing this review now because this was my last year of college and it was a busy one I barely could keep up with going to school and having two jobs at the same time, I got to confess that the 4.A are my favorites ones because to my ears the bass, the mids and the highs are in sync with each other and they make me forget about everything else I just enjoy that moment when I'm listening to my favorite tracks, and every time I listen to the 8.A I am thinking "damn I wonder how this song would sound with the 4.A", and there you go I become analytical again lol, I listen to my 8.A when I listen to pop, techno or Latin music because of the many music instruments used with those genres but because I am a rocker and most of the bands I listen use the basic instruments you know guitar, bass, and drums and obviously vocals the 4.A gets most of my time, TO MY EARS they sound neutral and that's MY SOUND.
The best analogy to compare these two ciems would be like loving your wife(8.A) and having an affair with that pretty lady(4.A) you still love your wife but you just can't stop thinking about pretty the lady and you don't know what to do other than being slick and keep them both !!!
In conclusion if you get any of these to iem's you won't regret it! I will upload pics of them in a few days!!!
I paid for the 8.A $1500 (checkboard inlay), and for the 4.A $500, I am not including shipping and handing and customs fees
I gave them 5 stars in value since many people do not appreciate what it takes to make something custom, anything you name it, and I know what I am talking about, as I said before I work in a custom glass shop and I know how hard it's to make something custom from scratch! and the checkered board I got for my 8.A is TOP QUALITY AND CRAFTSMANSHIP!!!!

http://www.space.com/21140-star-trek-warp-drive-possible.html I'm sure this has been posted at some point here before...
It's all fine for as long as the first FTL flight doesn't end up as with Event Horizon and Von Braun/Rickenbacker...
Bad article. Too much pop culture, not enough science. Also, I immedietly thought about folding space (from Dune). Also Star Trek is extremely overrated.
Is there actually any Star Trek tech that may actually _not_ work ? Hmm transporter maybe .. anything else? Alcubierre Drive requires negative energy, more energy than available in the universe, violates causality
I think it will work and the paradoxes resolved, but I reckon that a functioning warp drive spaceship is a good 100 years out. So for us, we'll have to just keep dreaming.
Massive amounts of energy are required...like the power output of an average star... Either to create the theoretical exotic matter that might allow for an Alcubierre Drive or to just brute force it. Still, it would be cool.
Well, indeed it sounds like something that would cost way too much energy to accomplish at the moment. However, you do not then factor in the fact that we might find ways to manipulate spacetime, which could greatly lessen the energy needed for such a thing. Just think of an ordinary light bulb, and then compare that to LED's, or the upcoming LET's. I'm not saying it'll ever get easy, but remarks like "We'll never have enough energy", to me sound a bit like "Computers will never get smaller than a 3x3x3M room". One of the things I find truly implausible, and probably never possible, is the way the com system works, without people having implants, or telepathy. They always say something like, "Picard to doctor Crusher", which the receiving person then instantly hears, even the part where Picard has only said, "Picard". How the hell did the "computer" know which person to route the call to before the caller has even mentioned the receiving person? =D I know I know
It's called record the message first, scan it, find out who it's intended for, and reply it back on an open channel. Ta-da! Done!
I doubt that's what it called, furthermore, there is no time for recording and scanning in instant messaging. I know there can be all sorts of explanations, but none of them can truly clarify exactly how it works in its current(star trek universe) form. I just wanted to make a point
Cubert J. Farnsworth: I understand how the engines work now. It came to me in a dream. The engines don't move the ship at all. The ship stays where it is, and the engines move the universe around it.

Arc'teryx Squamish 50 Trail Race
We can't wait for August and the Arc'teryx Squamish 50 – a fifty mile trail ultra race in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Set in Squamish, British Columbia (named Top Trail Town by Trail Runner Magazine), this race starts at the Pacific Ocean and follows nearly ten thousand feet of elevation gain to the finish. With some of the best running terrain in Western Canada, the biggest challenge has been keeping this race from quickly becoming the Squamish 100 … or more!
The individual options are the 50 mile and 21k, or you can do the 50 as a co-ed relay team of three, five, or seven. Of course, we couldn't stay away from such an amazing race, and put together our own team. Here's who will be running what:
- LEG 1: Liz – Tour de Squamish (10k)
- LEG 2: Nancy F – Up, Up, and Away (8.5k)
- LEG 3: Nancy H – Wet and Wild (9.5k)
- LEG 4: Tim – Trail Running 101 (14k)
- LEG 5: Eron – What Goes Down, Must Go Up (18k)
- LEG 6: Tara – The Plunger (8.5k)
- LEG 7: Brent – No Guts, No Glory (13k)
They've all been training up a storm, and we sometimes see them hopping out of the office to get in a run. Here's a quick intro to our team and their favourite pieces to run in:
- Liz: Sales Analyst in Forecasting (figuring out how many of each thing we are going to make), Cita Sleeveless ("flattering style, comfy fabric, and a handy pocket")
- Nancy F: Senior Design Manager for Apparel, Phase AR Crew ("comfortable across a wide temperature range")
- Tim: CRM Campaign Specialist, Motus Crew SS ("amazing moisture-management combined with a soft fabric and non-chafing fit")
- Eron: Product Line Manager for the Endorphin collection, Cita Vest ("super light, nice mesh back for ventilation, and an internal pocket for my tunes and key)
- Tara: Graphic Designer, Cita Tight ("amazing fit and freedom of movement when running")
- Brent: Video Designer and Editor, Trino Jersey LS ("it's the ultimate cool weather running jersey")
