Kukla's Korner Hockey
Cole Will Play His Game

from Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal,
But if you think the seriousness of the injury has made the power forward shy away from the heavy going, think again.
"You learn to play the game a certain way, and if that style's been successful and you've come all this way, it's hard to change," Cole said earlier this week as he skated with several other NHLers at Kinsmen Arena, preparing for the opening of the Oilers' main training camp on Friday, Sept. 19.
"I've always played a hard-nosed style." Cole was apprehensive in his first playoff game after breaking his neck. His Carolina teammates had unexpectedly lost Game 5 of the final in overtime on Fernando Pisani's short-handed goal and had to fly clear across the continent after coming tantalizingly close to winning the series on home ice.
"It wasn't an ideal situation to play my first game," confessed Cole.

JitterJam Acquired by Meltwater Group to Create a Social CRM Software Platform
March 23, 2011
By Jamie Epstein, TMCnet Web Editor
CRM.com is reporting that Meltwater Group has recently bought CRM software developer JitterJam. Together, the companies can now offer a solution that will give marketing, communications and advertising professionals a great set of tools in order to communicate with customers and look at their behaviors. Jorn Lyseggen, CEO and founder of Meltwater, said the company researched in detail as many as 20 social media companies when looking for a potential partner during the past nine months. "JitterJam was a company that was standing out pretty early in the process," he said. The social media monitoring company purchased JitterJam for a cool $6 million, and its employees are a package deal. JitterJam's current focus is on combining email and social media with the user's contact database. Due to this acquisition, Meltwater will now have the authority to use JitterJam's core features of contacts, analytics and notifications—and implement them into its Buzz product. The JitterJam platform can still be purchased as a stand-alone solution however, but by the summer, the new integrated product will become available for purchase. "We have been tremendously impressed with Meltwater's rapid growth in the social and marketing space," said Ric Pratte, co-founder, president, and CEO of JitterJam, in a statement. "Meltwater's expertise, highly impressive customer base, and exceptional sales organization will help us bring the integrated JitterJam platform to a primed worldwide audience. We're thrilled to be part of Meltwater." Lyseggen believes JitterJam is "one of the most comprehensive social CRM systems out there" due to the founders' background and experience. "They bring that CRM expertise to the social media space," he maintained. "The talent that the founders represent makes us think they will be a very valuable contribution to our existing organization." Lyseggen also said the acquisition represents a "new chapter for Meltwater." "We are historically coming from the news monitoring side," he explained. "Now we are really signaling a serious investment and commitment to social media. We aspire to do the same thing with social media and social CRM as we were able to do in the news monitoring space." Lyseggen thinks Meltwater can bring in $100 million in three years solely through entering the social space. Lyseggen added that this acquisition will help the company maintain a much higher position as a social CRM provider. Jamie Epstein is a TMCnet Web Editor.

In the simple taglib example , I used a tag handler class to implement a taglib. This is an example to implement a taglib with a UI component. The purpose is to use a custom tag to split a string and print each part in a separate paragraph, i.e., print

with custom tag <my:foreach> : <my:foreach var="who" value="john steve mike"> ...

This is a simple example to demonstrate the templating power of JSF facelets. If you've used struts tiles before, you'll recognize the simplicity of templating with facelets. I've stripped out everything else except the pages themselves, just to put our focus on facelets. This is a Maven based project, and you need Tomcat (or any servlet container) to run the resulting webapp. To begin with this is the list of files:
./pom.xml ./src/main/webapp/home.xhtml ./src...

9-13-05 - Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison said Monday she wants more of the costs of educating schoolchildren displaced by Hurricane Katrina covered by the federal government, some education requirements eased and more local community costs reimbursed.
Hutchison filed four bills aimed at stemming local costs related to opening shelters and providing other resources to Hurricane Katrina victims.
Hutchison, a member of the Appropriations Committee, said her bills were based on conversations she had in conference calls with Texas officials whose communities have become the new home to thousands of hurricane evacuees.
Hutchison, R-Texas, said the bills would cut red tape that may be preventing full-fledged relief efforts.
"We must allow our schools to educate and our police to protect. Our potential to get the job done right is being bogged down in the long halls of bureaucracy and that needs to end," Hutchison said in a statement.
Hutchison wants to expand coverage of education expenses. A Federal Emergency Management Agency memo issued Saturday said costs for hiring additional teachers and buying textbooks were not reimbursable by the federal government.
Her bill also would give the education secretary authority to relax certain requirements for schools that have seen an increase in students from other districts.

"Great front desk, not so clean room"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Feb 26, 2013
Service at the front desk went above and beyond our expectations. They helped us get numbers for rental car places and provided us with everything we needed. Room looked new and modern, but did not have a microwave or fridge, but did have a coffee maker. Our TV's remote control was broken (the battery cover would not stay on), there was a used band-aid on the floor between the two beds, and a hair in one of the new bath towels. Also, I tried to make local calls from the room phone, but even though I followed the instructions on the phone, it kept giving me a busy signal. View from the room was scary (steep hill with roots). Overall, we were pleased by the service provided by the front desk, but all of the other things were a disappointment. Next time, we probably will go with a hotel that had a microwave/fridge and offered drinks and snacks in the lobby, even if it costs a little more. Cleanliness of a room is very important, and we were definitely grossed out by the used band-aid.

First opening in 1992, the PIT measures 2.1 million square feet and occupies 10,000 acres. It's no surprise, then, that more than 11 million travelers pass through the airport each year. Its 100 shops and restaurants offer plenty for the casual browser or the souvenir hunter. Connecting to Pittsburgh via the Fort Pitt Tunnel, the airport is less than a half-hour's drive from downtown Pittsburgh.

"Exactly what I needed."
We needed a quick place to stay to catch an early flight. They were very helpful and we were able to take a shuttle to the airport.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Dated hotel with no amenities. OK for the two night stay i did. Didn't do the "free" breakfast either - wasn't impressed. Had wifi so i was good after work to check and catch up on emails......Genuine Hotels.com guest review
The motel was vey nice. Front desk clerk was very helpful land friendly. The breakfast was very nice. All you could ask for.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
My stay was great! I would stay there again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Don't Go here!!!!!!"
The doors to enter the building one worked off and on with your key card, and the second that was close to our room didn't work at all. Had to walk the length of the whole building and go up two floors to get to our room carrying our luggage. When told the front desk about it and that I have had surgery on both knees I was told management does know […] but hasn't done anything about it and it has been that way for awhile. Front desk staff sent her six year old son to prop the door open. When I checked out I let them know that you have to flush the toilet repeatedly to make anything go down. I was told it happens, sorry. And we had to ask for towels for three times since there was four of us and only two towels. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Nice Hotel close to the Pgh. Airport"
I use this hotel as a Jumping off Place before my flights. It's close and convenient to Pittsburgh International Airport, the hotel staff are very pleasant and accommodating, the free Airport shuttle service is very good, the rooms are average and in need of a little updating but if you just stay for less then a day like I do, they are accommodating. […] I have stayed here numerous times with no problems at all! Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Clean and quiet"
Clean, quiet and staff was friendly. Only complaint is that many things needed fixed and repaired.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not up to Super 8 standards"
The room had the usual Super 8 amenities: tub, large flat-screen TV, wifi, mini-fridge, desk, chair, comfortable bed, blackout curtains. There were no obvious signs that cleaning was neglected except for a left-behind chapstick and a slight dank smell. The bathroom and carpet looked clean. One bedside lamp had a burned-out bulb, and the switch was broken […] on the desk lamp. The fridge sat directly on the carpet, making it inconvenient to get into. We didn't have occasion to ask for anything from the front desk, but another guest almost missed his flight because his airport shuttle had been scheduled for the wrong time. Another guest had a problem with a third-party booking, but it seemed to have been resolved in short order. Breakfast service was 4-9 and included cereal, toast, waffles, yogurt and pastries. The location is convenient to the airport and to a large shopping area, but there is an "adult" shop next door. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Shuttle to airport"
Overall, for the money, this was a good stay. Everything is very dated, the carpeting, bedding, bathroom fixtures. Skimpy towels. Older TV and A/C unit. Not much selection on the breakfast. The ride to the airport was right on time, friendly, and pleasant. I would stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Economical and close the Pittsburgh Airport"
I live more than two hours from the airport. I booked this hotel to avoid the long drive in the wee hours of the morning. The hotel staff was friendly and efficient. My room was clean and in good working order. The shuttle to the airport was very convenient and on time. I am not a breakfast person, but the other guests seemed to enjoy the food. I will […] stay here again before my early morning departures! Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"fast check in"
Not new but clean and cared for. Very fast check in--none of that endless typing--I appreciated this.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Poor value."
We needed a room for about five hours before catching an early flight. This hotel was rated less poorly than other similarly priced hotels so I took a risk. I would have been more comfortable sleeping in the airport. The air conditioning unit is operated by remote. But we did not know that and couldn't get the unit to work. We called the desk and staff […] said she'd be up to fix it, but never did. We stayed awake the extra hour waiting. We slept in a hot room which was miserable and noisy. Upon check out, we explained the lack of air conditioning and were told it was operated by a remote control. No apologies and no discount for our discomfort. The bed was fairly comfortable. The carpet was sticky and stained. The bathroom was functional at best. I wish there was an inexpensive, no-frills, clean, comfortable room at a safe hotel for circumstances like ours. Don't stay at the Super 8. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"good spot"
Overall very well liked. Rooms need to be updated a little. Nice staff. Would stay again.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Good for the price"

"gooid neighborhood, can walk to everything"
The staff was great here,,, breakfast was good.. Could walk to sopping and anything I needed.. Would stay again when back in town...Thanks to the staff for a great stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"They Try Harder, But The Hotel is Sub Par"
The internet connection was nonexistent until the router was reset, which took about 2 hours when the manager returned to reset it. The room had an aroma of smoke which housekeeping attempted to mask with a very cloying deodorizer with a strong chemical odor. My room was a non-smoking room, but there are smoking rooms in the motel. The smoke must drift […] in because I kept smelling that odor whenever I inhaled.The air conditioner had two buttons punched through making adjustments very difficult. The bathroom doorknob was missing the front piece. The staff was friendly and diligent. There seemed to be a family there painting and repairing rooms. They did not attempt to lower their voices whens arguing on my floor. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Very Nice People"

"I would recommend this hotel"
I would recommend this hotel and its accommodating staff services to anyone. The Staff at this facility had provided excellent at providing for all of my needs for involved issues that had arouse for me including issues with their painting crew. The hotel room was clean & amenities was very excellent everything was in its place and functioning properly. […] The hotel had supplied a computer for guest use that was so helpful to my needs from issues that had required my conversing thru email & research on internet which I didn't have my lap top with me. Very helpful indeed....A couple employees of the painting company that was in the hallways while I was checking out was very loud and ignorant towards guests and one in particular dark haired female on the painting staff was very loud about inappropriate personal issues on her cell phone several times.

"Pleasant Surprise"
We didn't want to spend much for a room since we were arriving so late after the fireworks downtown leaving us no time to take advantage of any amneties at a more elaborate hotel. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The linens were decent. The building felt clean. No issues with the staff. Restaurants and a few bars nearby. Avoid Eat n Park […] if possible. The only suggestion I have is better drapes in the room window. The existing ones didnt keep all of the light out in the morning. If you're just looking for a clean place to sleep without spending a lot this is an option. It did have a better outside appearance than the Travel Lodge down the street.

Stayed only one night to catch a flight out early the next morning. We would not stay more than one night, if we ever stay again.Genuine Expedia guest review

The free transportation from the airport and the free breakfast were great features of such a reasonably priced hotel. The members of the staff went out of their way to be helpful.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Won't stay here again"
Room was dirty. Used grounds in coffee maker, dirty wash cloth hanging in shower. They ran out of most things at breakfast. Parking lot dirty, afraid we were going to get a flat.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Acceptable for price"
Room was decently clean but overall hotel condition a bit rundown and dingy. Rear entrance had a card-swipe but was not secured even at 2 am. Parking was atrocious.Genuine Expedia guest review
"close to airport"
Inexpensive for the area.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"poor condition"
Room was dirty, glasses were dirty, tried to get bottled water - machine ate my money, no coditioner - front desk didn't have any either, hair dryer didn't work, couldn't turn on bathroom fan because it was broken and loud, pillows were uncomfortable. Hallways were dark and dirty. Fortunately, it was just one night and convenient.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Super 8 in Coraopolis is Super!"
From the cordial greeting from the receptionist, the one-night stay in a two-bed lovely, clean room with free toiletries and FREE breakfast to boot was a bargain. The hotel is close to Greater Pitt Airport and is perfect for an early morning flight. Breakfast is served at 4:30 AM. This is our hotel of choice for trips to/from Pittsburgh.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great value for the price"
Friendly staff, very accommodating. I had a plane at Pitt to catch leaving at 6AM and they easily arranged for a free shuttle to pick me up at 4:30AM (free shuttle service 24 hours is great!) Plus, they had the free continental breakfast out by 4AM (pancake-machine and all). The only down sides were that the bed was quite firm and the a/c in my room […] was a little finicky. The room itself that I stayed in was the cheapest king bed non-smoking room and this included a mini-fridge, a microwave, tv, and free internet. Great value for the price and I recommend this hotel for anyone that needs a place to stay near the airport. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Nothing fancy, but clean"
Needed a last nminute place to stay and everything was booked due to the Pgh marathon. Desk clerk was very nice. Room was clean, but was way out of date. Bathroom was clean except for the vent fan, but at least it worked. Nice Sheetz and Eat-n-Park across the street. Would stay again in a pinch.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"What you pay for"
Can't complain too much about a hotel with convenient highway access and airport access. The neighborhood didn't seem too bad but it wasn't a ritzy area by any stretch. The hallways reeked of smoke and some sort of bad attempt to cover it up with a cleaning agent or fragrance. It was awful. The room was okay, just old. Bathroom probably clean but definitely […] could use updating. Best part of stay was finding "Suds, Spuds, and Wings," a local dive bar with great food. It was busy, so that was our first clue it had to be good and it was. For what I paid, I can't complain too much. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Excellent hotel for travel from Pittsburgh Airport"
The staff was helpful, arranged my shuttle and made it easy to print off my boarding passes, gave good counsel about times to leave and how to manage the airport security. Altogether good, with good range of channels on t.v. as well, and good breakfast .Genuine Expedia guest review

"close to airport"
The hotel needs updated. other than that it was comfortable and for one night cant complain about anything.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Well, for just a one-night stay it was really good , just a few issues ,but I guess those small issues can get worked out by the management. Overall it was a very nice place to stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
I will never stay there again. It was very dirty, the heater made all kinds of noise and the bed linens were filthy.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Dangerous parking area"
The hotel was fine and the staff were friendly, but the parking was dangerous and the clientele were scarey and noisy. The parking lot is located behind the hotel in a seedy looking area. I was really afraid of being robbed while going from my parking spot to the hotel door. Also, many of the other guests looked a little rough around the edges and kept […] their tvs blaring all night long. I will not stay here again - it will definitely be worth it to pay a little more and stay at a nicer place. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

Anthemby: Ayn Rand
Editorial Review:
Anthem by Ayn Rand is not a book or governmental treatise. Rather, as Ayn Rand herself admitted, it has neither a real plot nor a real climax. Anthem is a poem. Its final two chapters are (according to Rand) the "anthem"--the celebration of the human ego. This is not done in logical terms, but in pure emotional exultation. Rand's writing throughout the book is skilled, passionate and evocative, but in the last two chapters she really shines. For presentations of Rand's philosophy, Objectivism, in logical form, read Atlas Shrugged. For a ruthless, beautiful evocation of the emotional aspect of Rand's philosophy of egoism, read Anthem. If you have socialist leanings, or simply have always assumed the many is more important that the one, the book may disturb you greatly. If you read Anthem with the knowledge that it is a poem, your understanding of it will be enhanced and, and the very minimum, it will challenge the way you think.

Today's New York Daily News:
Except that the FBI has now confirmed that no AR-15 was used in the rampage at the Washington Navy Yard.
It's almost like they're making things up.
What a great OpEd
Obviously, a site like GunPundit is going to support Magpul's decision to move out of Colorado after a law banning the sale or transfer of magazines holding more than 15 rounds was signed by the Governor last month. And poking fun at the idiots who passed such a law or those that support it is part and parcel to Murdoc's role.
Even so, this opinion piece by Rick Tosches in the Denver Post seems, well, sort of deranged:
Tosches: Go ahead, Magpul. Move. Wyoming seems nice.
Is that what passes for an opinion in the Denver Post?
The Stephen King eBook 'Guns'
Famed author Stephen King has published an eBook called 'Guns' to discuss the gun control issue.
No link given here, but here's the blurb on Amazon:
In a pulls-no-punches essay intended to provoke rational discussion, Stephen King sets down his thoughts about gun violence in America. Anger and grief in the wake of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School are palpable in this urgent piece of writing, but no less remarkable are King's keen thoughtfulness and composure as he explores the contours of the gun-control issue and constructs his argument for what can and should be done.
Seems almost reasonable, and definitely a possibility for "rational discussion."
But then there's this:
King's earnings from the sale of this essay will go the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.
Whoops. One doesn't have to know anything about King's politics (which are very Liberal) or know what his stance on gun control is (he apparently favors a total ban on semi-autos) to realize which way his breeze is blowing on this.
Don't buy this eBook unless you want to put money in the pockets of the Brady Bunch.
It's almost like Stephen King is totally full of shit.
Yay, Journalism!
Inmates using newspaper's gun owner map to threaten guards, sheriff says
Law enforcement officials from a New York region where a local paper published a map identifying gun owners say prisoners are using the information to intimidate guards.
Rockland County Sheriff Louis Falco, who spoke at a news conference flanked by other county officials, said the Journal News' decision to post an online map of names and addresses of handgun owners Dec. 23 has put law enforcement officers in danger.
"They have inmates coming up to them and telling them exactly where they live. That's not acceptable to me," Falco said, according to Newsday.
It's almost like publishing that information was irresponsible.
Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire, Mr. President
President Obama Falsely Claims Fast and Furious Program "Begun Under the Previous Administration"
Asked about the Fast and Furious program at the Univision forum on Thursday, President Obama falsely claimed that the program began under President George W. Bush.
"I think it's important for us to understand that the Fast and Furious program was a field-initiated program begun under the previous administration," the president said. "When Eric Holder found out about it, he discontinued it."
Fast and Furious began in October of 2009. Fact.
Murdoc hasn't been paying too much attention to the shitstorm that exploded over the things written in Recoil magazine, but it appears that editor Jerry Tsai has resigned and associate editor Joe Galloway has been suspended.
Remembering Chicago's victims
While Aurora gets the headlines:
Yet more than twice as many people have been murdered this month in the president's hometown of Chicago than were killed in the Aurora shooting. They are just statistics for whom there will be no presidential visits or flags flown at half staff.
Via Instapundit, who writes
Well, since Chicago already has very strict gun control, these deaths can't be turned to political use.
Stun Guns in the Wolverine State
Somehow I missed this:
I think this is correct. But Murdoc is more interested in HOW they reached that decision, especially:
The Second Amendment applies not just to firearms but to other weapons as well. "[The state] argues that Heller is strictly a gun control case, but the broad nature of the language used in Heller's definition of arms clearly covers more than just firearms."
I just had this discussion a few days ago. The Second Amendment is a legal guarantee that citizens can keep and bear ARMS. Arms are a lot more than guns.
Via Say Uncle.
George Zimmerman had a broken nose, two black eyes, two lacerations on the back of his head, and a minor back injury according to a medical report.
Trayvon Martin had bloody knuckles according to an autopsy.
That sure seems to support Zimmerman's story a lot more than it supports the story that everyone is telling on behalf of Martin.
Murdoc doesn't know what the result of this case is going to be, but he's at least happy to see some actual information coming out.
'Justice for Trayvon'
15 Whites Beaten By Gangs of Black Thugs… So Far
David Forster and Marjon Rostami are just the latest victims of brutal beatings tied to the Trayvon Martin shooting, and some Virginians are outraged that the newspaper did not report the attack for "politically correct reasons." The attack was revealed not as news, but in an opinion piece.
And here's something:
On March 24-25, a string of attacks in Grand Rapids, Mich., by mobs of black youths injured seven whites in separate incidents. Five of the injured filed police reports. Examiner reporter Kyle Rogers interviewed one of the victims, Jacob Palasek, who had been beaten with a chain. Palasek stated that police investigators feel that all the attacks were related to the Trayvon Martin story. Local news media stand accused of burying the story to keep racial tensions from rising to a boiling point.
NBC fires editor for altering Zimmerman 911 call; when will MSNBC fire the writer who did the same?
NBC reports that it has fired a producer (unnamed) over the recording of the 911 which was edited to make it sound like George Zimmerman was targeting Trayvon Martin simply because he was black.
Murdoc doesn't spend a lot of time watching mainstream news, but it's amazing how this story has almost totally fallen off the radar. I think it has to do with the fact that the initial story that caught everyone's attention is turning out to have been based mostly on lies.
Via Instapundit.
They say it like it's a bad thing…
'Justifiable homicide' cases double in US
In a story that is pretty much another Zimmerman/Martin rundown, notes that there were 326 justifiable homicides in 2010 compared to 176 in 2000, an increase of 150.
If they're justifiable, what's the problem?

Create your own bump map in TopSolid 7
Posted in Tutorials, Video by Daniel Norée View CommentsAdding a bump map is an easy but yet effective way to add more realism to a scene. I´m not gonna try to explain how it works but I guess one can say that a bump map is like a "raised texture" that simulates a "bumpy surface" rather than a flat and smooth surface. The bump map is a "grayscale" image where the lighter areas are "raised" from the darker areas. (go here if you want to read up on bump mapping).
In this video i will show how easy it is to create you own bump map and use it in TopSolid 7.
As a base i´m using a photo of my bathroom floor taken with a mobile phone .
In short here are the steps shown in the video:
- First you need a picture to work with, either take your own or use the one included in the package available here.
- Open it in you favourite image editor.
- Crop the image to a size you see fit.
- Save it.
- Now invert the colours and maybe adjust brightness and contrast.
- Save this image aswell.
- In TopSolid 7 create two textures, on as a "normal" texture and the other one as a bump texure.
- Create a new material, add the textures, adjust the values as you like and set the bump value. The amount of bump needed might differ from different textures so try some different values until you get what you want.
- Create a surface or whatever to apply the material to. Drag´n drop the material onto your surface/part.
- Activate realistic render and your done!
- Create a render if you like.
- Pretty easy. Check out the process in the video below. Tha package containing all the files needed is available in the download area.

Spatiotemporal patterns of coral disease prevalence on Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia
Haapkylä, J., Melbourne-Thomas, J., Flavell, M., and Willis, B.L. (2010) Spatiotemporal patterns of coral disease prevalence on Heron Island, Great Barrier Reef, Australia. Coral Reefs, 29 (4). pp. 1035-1045.

Despite increasing research effort on coral diseases, little is known about factors driving disease dynamics on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). This is the first study to investigate the temporal patterns of coral disease prevalence and potential drivers of disease around Heron Island, in the southern Capricorn Bunker sector of the GBR. Surveys were conducted in two austral summers and three winters between November 2007 and August 2009 on six sites around the island. Six diseases were detected: brown band syndrome (BrB), growth anomalies (GA), ulcerative white spots (UWS), white syndrome (WS), skeletal eroding band disease (SEB) and black band disease (BBD). The lowest overall mean disease prevalence was 1.87 ± 0.75% (mean ± SE) in November 2007 and the highest 4.22 ± 1.72% in August 2008. There was evidence of seasonality for two diseases: BrB and UWS. This is the first study to report a higher prevalence of BrB in the winter. BrB had a prevalence of 3.29 ± 0.58% in August 2008 and 1.53 ± 0.28% in August 2009, while UWS was the most common syndrome in the summer with a prevalence of 1.12 ± 0.31% in November 2007 and 2.67 ± 0.52% prevalence in January 2008. The prevalence of GAs and SEB did not depend on the season, although the prevalence of GAs increased throughout the study period. WS had a slightly higher prevalence in the summer, but its overall prevalence was low (<0.5%). Sites with high abundance of staghorn Acropora and Montipora were characterised by the highest disease prevalence (12% of Acropora and 3.3% of Montipora species were diseased respectively). These results highlight the correlations between coral disease prevalence, seasonally varying environmental parameters and coral community composition. Given that diseases are likely to reduce the resilience of corals, seasonal patterns in disease prevalence deserve further research.

Fort DeRussy News Issue 5 July 1999 State to Take Possession of Fort - Historic Site Status Assured - Governor Signs Bill On July 1, 1999, Governor Mike Foster of Louisiana signed House Bill 462 into Law, changing the name of all Louisiana State Commemorative Areas to Louisiana State Historic Sites, and adding Fort DeRussy to the list. Fort DeRussy is now Louisiana's newest State Historic Site! Congratulations to all Friends of Fort DeRussy. Job Well Done. RRWC Awards Grant On April 14, 1999, the Red River Waterway Commission voted to give $150,000 to the City of Marksville for the purpose of purchasing acreage adjacent to the fort and making improvements to the property. The grant was made with the agreement that all of the fort property would be turned over to the Louisiana Office of State Parks for the operation of the fort as a State Historic Site (formerly known as State Commemorative Areas). The check was received by the City of Marksville on May 26, 1999 in an informal ceremony at the local newspaper office. The RRWC money will allow for the purchase of 53 acres between the fort and the levee from the Lee Dauzat family and the donation of 11 acres from the City of Marksville. The five acres already in possession of the City of Marksville will give the State a total of approximately 70 acres for the new Fort DeRussy State Historic Site. Special thanks to the Red River Waterway Commission and Lee Dauzat family for making the purchase of this land possible. General DeRussy to be Interred at FortThe second burial of Major General Lewis DeRussy of the Louisiana State Militia, the namesake of our fort, will take place at the fort at 11 AM on the morning of Sunday, September 26, 1999. The General is currently buried at the Russell Family Cemetery at Grand Ecore near Natchitoches. The graveyard is located not far from the Red River bridge, but is isolated and heavily vandalized. The interment came about as a cooperative endeavor between several of the General's descendants, the Friends of Fort DeRussy, and Kramer Funeral Home. The burial will be with full military honors. The Louisiana National Guard is also expected to participate, along with reenactors from all three wars in which the General served: Cenla Historical Reenactment Group will provide Civil War, Fort Jesup State Historic Site (State Parks) will provide Mexican War, and Chalmette Battlefield (National Park Service) will provide War of 1812. The General will be the third member of his immediate family to be buried twice. Lewis' older brother Rene Edward, the namesake of Fort DeRussy in Hawaii, was first buried in California in 1865 and was later moved to the cemetery at the US Military Academy at West Point, where he had been Superintendent from 1834 to 1838. Lewis' first wife was originally buried at Fort Jesup, Louisiana, in 1836, and was moved to the Alexandria National Cemetery in Pineville in 1913. Visitation will be at the Marksville Fire Station Annex the Saturday evening before the funeral, and Sunday morning until 10:30. The interment will be under the direction of Mr. Alfred Cook of Kramer Funeral Home, Alexandria. Navy Refuses to Return Cannon The US Navy is still refusing to return a cannon that was taken from the fort after it was captured by the Army in 1864. The modified Model 1829 32-pounder Seacoast Gun was given to the Navy at the time, and the Navy is now claiming that the gun in question was captured in the naval battle that took place at the fort in May, 1863. (The Navy did capture a 32-pounder at the fort in May 1863, but that gun was blown up at the fort on May 10 of that year.) The Navy has shown a rather selective research ability, emphasized by Navy Museum curator Dr. Ed Furgol's statement that details of the gun's capture are "lost in the mists of time." In fact, the details of this gun's history at the fort, and its subsequent capture, are quite comprehensive. The Navy has used several very imaginative reasons for claiming ownership of the gun, including the Hague Treaty, which was not signed until years after the Civil War, and as such was hardly ratified by the Confederate government. (The Hague Treaty also prohibited aerial bombing.) The gun was located by fort historian Steve Mayeux through a combination of clever hunches and dumb luck. The gun was found on an Internet listing of surviving Civil War artillery pieces compiled by Wayne Stark. It is now at the Washington Navy Yard in a row of guns lining the entrance to The Navy Museum. Visitors wanting to see the gun are forewarned by Dr. W. S. Dudley (Director of Naval History) that they may have to seek out Dr. Ed Furgol personally to point out the gun, as "not all of the museum's employees have as complete" familiarity with the gun as Furgol. Representative John Cooksey and Senators Mary Landrieu and John Breaux have all spoken to the Navy about returning the gun, but so far the Navy remains intransigent. Delta Queen Visits Fort – AgainPassengers from the steamboat Delta Queen visited Central Louisiana again this June, and got a surprise "welcome" from members of the Cenla Historical Reenactors Group. Their artillery ambush caught the tourists unawares as they moved up the Red River at Egg Bend, very close to the point where two US Navy gunboats and a transport were sunk during the war. The group had gathered on the deck to attend a press conference by Abraham Lincoln (portrayed by actor James Getty) when the shooting started. The boat went dead in the water in front of the guns, to the enjoyment of both passengers and bystanders on the levee. The concussion from the guns severely rattled the windows on the boat, but fast action by the gun crews prevented breakage. When the boat's calliope played Dixie, the Queen was allowed to continue on to Alexandria. The following morning, two busloads of Civil War enthusiasts were led to the fort by historians Ed Bearss and Bud Robertson. They found a large camp of reenactors who entertained them for nearly two hours, with a period church service and cavalry, infantry, and artillery drills as well as various other demonstrations. Most of the reenactors had spent both Friday and Saturday nights at the fort. Several of them have reported that the chigger problem at the fort has not abated. Some of the DQ passengers expressed disappointment that there was no petition to sign to recover the Fort DeRussy cannon. Lewis DeRussy was the oldest West Point graduate to serve in the Confederate Army. He was also a veteran of the War of 1812 and the Mexican War. Probably less than a dozen men could claim this accomplishment, the equivalent of having served on active duty in WWI, WWII, and Viet Nam. Park Day '99 SuccessfulFort DeRussy's Second Annual Park Day was just as successful as our First Annual Park Day last year. Once again, about 50 volunteers showed up to listen to a short update meeting and do general cleanup around the fort. In addition to cleaning fallen branches and building burn piles, the volunteers attended the dedication of the Slave Monument. The crater was also pumped out with our new 2" semi-trash pump. 4-H-ers Amy Basco and Aaron Foster clean up under the Fort DeRussy sign during Park Day '99 activities. DonationsJames Gaspard of Bluetown has donated two antique iron pots to the fort. CLECO has made a second donation of $500 to Friends of Fort DeRussy, and that money has already been spent on a monument to the first two CS soldiers to die in action at the fort (see article in next column). Dave Lemoyne of Missouri, and his fellow SCV members, are donating a complete reprint set of Andrew Boothe's Louisiana Confederate Soldiers and Commands to the fort's library. In MemoriamSince the last newsletter came out, Friends of Fort DeRussy has lost three members. Mrs. Margie Laprairie, Mr. Eddie Lemoine, and Mr. Elster "Doo" Gaspard have all recently passed away. Our condolences to their family and friends. They will all be missed. Mr. Doo was a charter member, and never missed a single meeting at the fort. Slave Monument Installed and DedicatedWith the help of a National Guard wrecker, the Slave Monument was erected on February 6, 1999. Company B of the 769th Engineer Battalion had to be called on to set up the marker, under the direction of Danny Melancon of Melancon Monuments, when the funeral home truck normally used proved inadequate to the task of lifting the 2- ton block of granite. Dedication ceremonies for the monument took place on Park Day '99, April 24, 1999. A group of 50 gathered around the monument for the unveiling and a short address by fort historian Steve Mayeux. Miss Wanda Clark, a 9th grader at Marksville High School, performed flawlessly as our bugler. When the last notes of Taps floated over the fort's ramparts, several of the onlookers were seen fighting back tears. The front of the marker includes the names of the 65 slaves known to have died during the construction of the fort, with four others listed as Unknown. The back of the marker has two con-tradictory quotes: one by Gen. Richard Taylor telling the slaves' owners of the great care that was being taken of their slaves; the other by a Texas Captain telling his wife of the terrible conditions under which the slaves at DeRussy were toiling. When visitors ask which of the quotes is accurate, they are referred to the front of the marker to view the list of 69 names. The cost of the monument was covered in part by a $500 donation by CLECO, the Central Louisiana Electric Company. Second Monument on OrderA granite marker in memory of two Confederate soldiers who died at Fort DeRussy has been ordered. Thomas Burns and John O'Quinn, of the Crescent Artillery, were blown overboard and lost from the CS gunboat Grand Duke during her fight with the USS Albatross during the Second Battle of Fort DeRussy. This marker should be in place by the end of July 1999. The cost of the marker was covered in part by a second $500 donation from CLECO. EditorialThe Louisiana Office of State Parks will soon be taking over the day-to-day operation of Fort DeRussy. This does not mean that Friends of Fort DeRussy will be disbanding. Far from it. The Friends will be even more important than ever. For one thing, State Parks has requested that we continue to assist them in an advisory capacity. And we have another equally important reason for our existence. It's real simple. Our Job's Not Done Until We've Got the Gun. The Fort DeRussy Cannon belongs at Fort DeRussy. We don't quit until we get it there. Fortunately for us, the Navy is in a very untenable position. Had some unscrupulous sailor not chosen to stamp a lie in steel, we would have a serious problem. But he did, and he is simplifying our job tremendously. I spent a few years in the Marines. I don't like to admit it publicly, but I actually have a great deal of respect for sailors. I think that your average sailor, officer or enlisted, is a proud and honorable man (person?). I find it hard to believe that a normal Fleet sailor would not be outraged at the idea that a cannon handed over to the Navy by the Army is displayed at The Navy Museum as a "war trophy" captured in a naval engagement in which one of their own won a Medal of Honor. No decent Marine would tolerate that at a Marine Museum. I find it hard to believe sailors would. Our problem, of course, is that we are not dealing with Fleet sailors. We're dealing with Wash-ington bureaucrats. I think that once we get the story out to the sailors who, past and present, have served honorably in the Fleet, enough pressure will come from within their own ranks that the gun will be returned. We will get that word out. Then we and the Navy will both have something to be proud of. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe sailors have no honor. But I don't believe that. New MembersNew members continue to join Friends of Fort DeRussy. The following people have joined since our last newsletter was printed: John Casbeer Houston, TX J. Reginald Coco Baton Rouge C.

Think how good it will look on your resumé. Did You Know -That after Fort DeRussy was captured on March 14, 1864, it was used as a recruiting station for Black soldiers. There were 257 former slaves enlisted into the US Army at the fort in the first 11 days after its fall. Adjustments and CorrectionsIn the last newsletter's Editorial it was said that there was no nearby land to buy and because of that, there was no chance that the fort would be turned over to the State in the foreseeable future. This has turned out to be not true. |

Part II in a series on organic winegrowing
Welcome these 'friends' to your organic vineyard
Creating extra habitat in the form of flowering cover crops in the vineyard and insectary plantings alongside the vineyard also is helpful. The following is a partial list, which I compiled with the help of Dr. Michael Costello of California Polytechnic University in San Luis Obispo, of very useful "friends" to have in your organic vineyard. PHOTO: Jack Kelly Clark/© The Regents of the University of California Vineyards Spiders are an abundant and diverse group of predators found in organic vineyards. They are the most commonly observed predators in both vine canopies and the vineyard floor. There are more than a dozen families and numerous species. Important families include:
< img src="/content/image/wv_2008-09_Beneficial_Wasp.jpg" alt="Organic Predators and parasitoid, Insectary" />
PHOTO: Bonterra Vineyards These are very tiny wasps that parasitize the eggs of the grape leafhopper Erythroneura elegantula. They over-winter in parasitized eggs of other leafhoppers found in prune and plum trees and blackberry vines planted nearby, hatch and then parasitize grape leafhopper eggs in adjacent vineyards. When grape leafhopper eggs are parasitized, they turn red, which is a good way to see if the wasps are present. Sulfur sprays and any insecticides (such as Pyganic) are quite toxic to Anagrus sp. and should be avoided if you are relying on this useful parasitoid to help control leafhoppers. Phytoseiid mites Phytoseiids are predatory mites. They are oval to teardrop shaped, pale yellow to buff colored, shiny and very energetic, moving quickly compared to plant feeding mites. The western orchard predatory mite Galendromus occidentalis is widely distributed, but more than a dozen species have been found in North Coast vineyards alone. On winegrape varieties with very few leaf hairs, such as Grenache, Galendromus can quickly overtake a spider mite population if 50% of leaves sampled show at least one predatory mite. On varieties with considerable leaf hairs such as Zinfandel, it takes longer for the predatory mites to find and control spider mite populations. Galendromus occidentalis is available commercially for release and has been used successfully to control mites, especially if sulfur fungicides are not used in the vineyard. Six-spotted thrips Unlike the related plant eating western flower thrips, the six-spotted thrips (Scolothrips sexmaculatus) is a predator of spider mites, feeding on all stages, including eggs. You can recognize the adult thrips by the three dark spots on each fore-wing. Immatures are white, with a slightly more bulbous abdomen than western flower thrips nymphs. Six-spotted thrips are voracious feeders that can reduce a spider mite population even more rapidly than Galendromus. They are particularly effective in controlling Pacific mites Tetranychus pacificus. PHOTO: Jack Kelly Clark/© The Regents of the University of California Vineyards These small, true bugs (Orius sp.) with a black X on their wings are found in organic vineyards early in the season, sometimes abundantly. Their favorite foods are thrips and whiteflies, which are not widespread pests of grapes. Minute pirate bug nymphs also may be observed feeding on Willamette or Pacific mites. Lacewings Although lacewings (Chrysopa sp.) are well recognized as generalist predators, they are not a very abundant predator in most vineyards. Lacewing eggs are a fairly common sight, but for whatever reason, the population does not seem to build to very high levels. Lacewing larvae are very fond of mealybugs, although high numbers of lacewings have not been associated with grape or obscure mealybug infestations. Lacewing larvae have occasionally been observed feeding on leafhopper nymphs. Black hunter thrips These very small, jet black thrips (Aelothrips sp.) are common in the Sierra Foothills and North Coast regions. There are no detailed observations on what vineyard prey they consume, but they have been observed in orchards feeding mostly on thrips and mites. Spider mite destroyer Spider mite destroyers (Stethorus picipes) are very small, black lady beetles (family Coccinellidae), which specialize in spider mites. They are more common in North Coast vineyards. G.H.M. |

shipping is not free!! Take this 'DEAL' off the site!!!
it's insanely crappy. I bought 2 with free shipping. takes 2-3 hours to assemble! SERIOUSLY!!! about 80 bolts and nuts, almost none of which go in easily!!!DO NOT BUY!
Agree with previous comments - Flimsy and difficult to assemble. This model has been around for decades.

Results 1 to 2 of 2
I have been struggling to sync music over to my Lumia 920 so I've used Windows Media Player to do it. However, neither Zune Pass or downloaded XBOX Music pass music will work. I know they both use different DRM but there isn't any software that will help me activate the device to work with either "Pass."
I tried a direct download on the phone but it said I am at my max number of devices. I am an old Zune Pass "Keep 10 Songs" user and from what I understand, I was grandfathered in on 3 PC's and 3 Devices. (correct me if I am wrong). I know the new "rule" is a combo of 4 devices.
Any suggestions?
Brian - 11-11-2012, 12:04 AM #2
You can manage XBox Music devices from the XBox website. Go to Xbox 360 - Official Site - Xbox.com, sign in using your Live ID, and then click on "My Account" under your login name. On the new page that comes up, select "Manage music devices" under the device management section, and you can see and remove older devices from your XBox Music pass list. They're probably limiting your account to 4 devices (not sure if you can get that adjusted due to the grandfathered account).

Dealing with overloaded methods is tricky and has always been difficult. I agree with you about the code on 165 but I need to check with Mike first. It should probably just be looking for a match on the args length if vararg methods aren't involved (remove if exact match not found). I am hesitant to modify it without more thought as it was added by Joe quite awhile back, I am assuming for a good reason.
In the meantime, have you tried using class mappings? If DWR knows what type your Object is than it should find the correct method in LocalUtil.isJavaScriptTypeAssignableTo. Without class mapping DWR knows it has an Object but it doesn't know what type that Object is. Why the complexity? Think about the following overloaded case:
public void overloaded(TypeA a); public void overloaded(TypeB b);
Try class mapping and let me know. http://directwebremoting.org/dwr/documentation/server/configuration/dwrxml/converters/bean.html#mappingJavaToJavaScript
The change that is causing the problem was checked in on September 10th, 2008 (SVN rev. 2348).
Here is some related discussion from the list: http://dwr.2114559.n2.nabble.com/Converter-patch-td5406918.html#none
The problem is that the value coming from DWR (javascript layer) is of type "String" not "Object". So, the call to isJavaScriptTypeAssignableTo will return false even though there is a Converter that will decode the JSON string into a GridConfig object. Generally we don't rely on overloading at all, just number of parameters differentiation. (it wasn't supported previously)
The mapping thing is a good suggestion but unfortunately wont work in this case since my value is a string. It just needs to be decoded by my converter.
It seems obvious that if I provide 1 parameter in my call, and have a choice of several methods of which only one has a single param-- it should try and call that one regardless of any type checking.
By the way, we just upgraded from DWR RC2.
It does seem obvious, but I just want to make sure as the code was added for a reason (mistake, some type of weird corner case we aren't thinking of).
RC3 isn't out yet. Are you using a dev build or did you mean you upgraded from RC1 to RC2? Are you saying this worked in RC1/RC2? The code that is causing you grief has existed since 9/2008, so this doesn't make much sense to me.
We are using RC3 now. We have configured our bamboo server to package up jars and add it to our nexus based on your svn. We had trouble previously in finding DWR in any public maven location. We are looking to take advantage of some of the new features and bugfixes.
2008 seems pretty old. The previous version is labeled as RC2 in our nexus but this was uploaded by someone by hand. It could be mislabled. The source jars weren't uploaded either :-/. I will decompile the class tomorrow and see what it looks like. Perhaps this will shed some more light.
All I know is that service methods that used to be called are no longer called because it can't find the method after the DWR upgrade. This is the one thing I am sure about.
The reason for these problems is a chicken-and-egg problem wrt to finding the right converter for incoming data. DWR only uses type information from the method signatures to know what converter to use on the data (unless class-mapping is used). As converters don't register what type they expect as input, we have the following assumptions in the code to allow method overloading without resorting to having to try running several converters for a single piece of incoming data:
This is what you see in lines 204-220 ("Added to increase our ability to call overloaded methods accurately"), checked in 2010 by David, where we call isJavaScriptTypeAssignableTo() to allow us to use overloaded methods with the same number of parameters but different basic JS types, f ex:
js:myMethod("") -> java:myMethod(String) js:myMethod({}) -> java:myMethod(MyClass)
This is the part which is conflicting with your code that relies on the DWR2 behaviour.
You are also mentioning line 164-169 (Remove non-varargs methods which declare less params than were passed), checked in 2008 by Joe. The reason more parameters are allowed, is to offer JavaScript semantics on unspecified parameters with nullable types, f ex:
js:myMethod("") -> java:myMethod(String, String /*null*/, String /*null*/)
This is involved more by fluke in your case, and would not be significant in a somewhat different setup.
To sum up, my view is that we should support your use case where one can register a converter to deal with any JS type. Unfortunately, this conflicts with type-based method overloading which is also something that has been requested by other DWR users. There are two fixes:
My opinion is that it is too late for refactoring converters in DWR3, and it should be done in the next release instead. This leaves us with the configuration parameter solution. What are your thoughts?
"You are also mentioning line 164-169 (Remove non-varargs methods which declare less params than were passed), checked in 2008 by Joe. The reason more parameters are allowed, is to offer JavaScript semantics on unspecified parameters with nullable types, f ex:" Thanks for the explanation Mike.
I understand the nullable parameters. It makes sense.
I think your suggested fix is perfect. The configuration parameter would be fine for now.
Just a few thoughts on the Converter refactor: It would be nice if a converter could accept multiple types. For instance, maybe our converter would like to accept a string OR an object.
We override the DefaultConverterManager with our own to provide converter priorities, allow for annotation based converter bindings, and guice multi-binder semantics for converter registration. I assume the code that will check accepted input type will live in the ConverterManager? I just want to be sure that we can programatically set this. Our internal application framework has a standard "convention over configuration" architecture so its nice to be able to step in and set everything up programatically. You guys have done a really great job of making that easy.
Sorry about the delay. I just need to verify a few things and set up a few test cases before fixing this.

Chris Young looked spectacular. I found my way to a few highlight videos and I was impressed. I didn't get to see the whole game on video (had to reserve myself to GameDay) but I liked his location and he seemed to keep people off balance, from what you've written. Which is exactly the way he has to pitch at Citi Field.
I think the turning point was more Carrasco than Boyer.
Yes, Boyer was terrible and I'll continue ranting about him because he doesn't deserve a spot on this team. I hear the Mets are contemplating a 13th pitcher until Bay returns.
Get Izzy and a Lefty…O'Conner/Misch?
We need them. I'd even take Izzy/Acosta. Anything but Boyer at this point.
The pen is being abused to this point.
Anyway, Ike's having a good season so far. Good to see that.

If you're looking for something to smash through snowbanks, you probably can't do much better than this rusted-to-hell beater 1947 Willys Jeep in Harford County, Maryland. Since the body is more rust and metal, we think the seller is still way overpriced at $1,500, but he says it must go this weekend. We say $500 Sunday afternoon, or, better yet, $300 and a six-pack on Sunday night.
The interior is damn near as ratty as the body, with a junkyard three-spoke steering wheel and a 4x4 sticker on the dash, just to remind you of the backwoods capabilities.
It's not pretty, but the Jeep's mechanically sound. Engine has been rebuilt top to bottom. It's got new brakes, gas tank, suspension and exhaust. Despite the looks, the rebuild couldn't have been cheap, as parts for these aren't easy to find. Can't imagine why the owner wanted to put that kind of cash into this bucket, but we're glad he did. "Will go fast at this price," seller says. We think not. But it'd be a ton of fun at $500.
