Kelly Dwyer
The 10-man rotation, starring Kurtis Blow
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie15 hrs agoA look around the league and the web that covers it. It's also important to note that the rotation order and starting nods aren't always listed in order of importance. That's for you, dear reader, to figure out.
Prior to a doctor's intervention, Dwight Howard was eating 'the equivalent of 24 Hershey bars a day' via candy and soda
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie17 hrs agoHouston Rockets center Dwight Howard was hit with a shocking diagnosis during his lone season with the Los Angeles Lakers last year. According to a physician working with the team's medical staff, Howard was consuming "the equivalent of 24 Hershey bars a day" because of all the candy and glucose-rich carbonated soda he was drinking.
Dr. Cate Shanahan, in a fascinating feature by CBS Sports' Ken Berger, described her shock at Howard's alarming levels of glucose in his system, telling CBS that she became concerned because Howard's sluggish play and blood work "reminded me of patients who have pre-diabetes and neurological problems because of how sugar impacts the nervous system." A subsequent blood test revealed frightening amounts of glucose in his system.
With rumors of Mike Woodson's coaching demise swirling, ESPN pulls Jeff Van Gundy from Wednesday's broadcast
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie19 hrs agoFamously, former Knicks and Rockets coach Jeff Van Gundy won't speak with nor comment on coaching jobs midseason, or any other time an incumbent coach is still with a team pre-firing. That policy stems from the spring of 1999, when MSG openly courted free agent coach Phil Jackson to take over for Van Gundy as Knicks coach, with the Knicks struggling to make the Eastern playoff bracket. Jeff bristled at Jackson interviewing for the job while Van Gundy was still in the postseason hunt, and though Van Gundy got the last laugh by dragging that year's Knicks team to the NBA Finals, he's sticking to his guns and not having any contact with a team while a current head (or even interim) coach is under contract.
A Clippers fan is reportedly suing the team for $5 million after they allegedly sent him spam via text
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie20 hrs agoTexts from spammers feel far worse that emails from spammers, or Facebook and/or Twitter direct messages from spammers. A person's private phone number is not a part of the social media grindhouse, so it's never fun to pull up your mobile device after something buzzes or beeps or flashes, expecting to read something pertinent from someone you trust with your phone number, only to realize that some bot on the other end is trying to sell you something.
Still, in the era of unlimited text messaging plans, it's quickly forgotten. Unless you're ex-Los Angeles Clippers fan Ari Friedman, I suppose. According to TMZ, while attending a recent Clippers game, the gentleman in question reportedly wanted a message to the Clippers to be shown on the scoreboard for all to see, for some reason. What followed was apparently a bit of a nuisance.
Storylines abound as Doc Rivers returns to Boston as Los Angeles Clippers coach
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie21 hrs agoIt's not as jarring as seeing Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett in a Brooklyn Nets uniform, and it won't have the same emotional resonance as when a fan with a thick Boston accent yelled out "we love you Cooz!" at Bob Cousy's retirement ceremony 50 years ago, but Doc Rivers' return to Boston on Wednesday night will tug at the emotions a wee bit. Rivers understandably left the Celtics last spring so as to avoid the rebuilding project he once committed to, and his high-priced Los Angeles Clippers will have their hands full with a young Celtics team that hasn't laid down for anyone in what was supposed to be a rebuilding season.
Indiana comes back to down Miami in a postseason-styled battle
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie1 day agoINDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Pacers weren't the only ones with this game circled on the calendar.
The defending champion Miami Heat had to hear all summer about the Pacers' improved depth, their internal growth, and their budding rivalry with a Miami team that knocked them out of the playoffs in 2012 and 2013. The Heat roared out of the gate in their first meeting with the Pacers since downing Indiana in Game 7 of the 2013 Eastern Conference finals, grabbing a 30-19 first-quarter lead before Indiana used its height and defensive smarts to slowly chip away and eventually down the two-time defending champs, 90-84.
Bryan Colangelo offers praise to the Kings and a sly dig at the Raptors following the Rudy Gay deal
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie1 day agoMaple Leaf Sports and Entertainment CEO Tim Leiweke initially decided to put together a strange arrangement last spring, replacing longtime Toronto Raptors general manager Bryan Colangelo with the man who used to work as his second in command, reigning NBA Executive of the Year and former Denver Nuggets top man Masai Ujiri. The plan was for Colangelo, who is as connected as they come within NBA executive circles, to stick around to help grease the wheels as Ujiri dotted through the league's ever-expanding Rolodex. The problem with the arrangement was obvious, though, because it would involve Colangelo reporting to a man who used to report to him, all while that new boss broke apart the middling and expensive team Colangelo put together.
A former Atlanta Hawk GM partially blames his team's old woes on the AOL/Time Warner merger
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie1 day agoLongtime sports executive Pete Babcock is best known for running the Atlanta Hawks during the tail end of Dominique Wilkins' time with the team, developing the squad into a playoff fixture throughout the 1990s. A drought hit the squad following a second round sweep at the hands of the underdog New York Knicks in the 1999 Eastern Conference semifinals, though, as the Hawks would not go on to make the playoffs for another nine years – five years after Babcock was shown the door.
In a recent interview with Jeff Pearlman from The Score's Quazcast podcast, Babcock in part blamed those late lean years on the infamous Time Warner/AOL merger. Time Warner had owned the Hawks for years prior to that merger in 2000, and Babcock points to cost-cutting and micromanaging new staff as a source for the team's swoon following the fin de siècle. As transcribed by The Score, here's Babcock's take:
After a series of slow starts, Nuggets coach Brian Shaw has banned fast food from the locker room
Kelly Dwyer at Ball Don't Lie1 day agoAfter a slow start to the season, the Denver Nuggets have righted the ship underneath rookie head coach Brian Shaw. Though the team lost its best player and award-winning coach and top player personnel executive over the offseason, the Nugs are currently locked in at 13-8, on pace for a 51-win season that would far exceed the win total most predicted before 2013-14.
What the team still hasn't figured out, though, is why Denver plays so poorly at the outset of games. The Nuggets are far and away the worst first quarter team in the NBA, and most League Pass watchers that witness those sorts of slow starts are shocked to see the team in top form in the fourth quarter, on their way toward yet another win.
Unlike teammate Kobe Bryant, Steve Nash is not ready to return to game action

Last month, the Los Angeles Lakers and starting point guard Steve Nash made the smart decision to quit putzing around with Nash's combined ankle, back and nerve injuries. They both decided to shut the future Hall of Famer down until he was healthy enough to rejoin the team for the long haul, and not for fitful bits and pieces of play here and there, interrupted by long stints on the bench and days off from practices and/or games.

Compassion, Power, and the Kingdom of God: An Introduction …
What is the nature of the kingdom of God? And what is the "power" that the kingdom exerts now in the church?
What is the nature of the kingdom of God? And what is the "power" that the kingdom exerts now in the church?
Satan is not opposed to most ordinary things you do, as long as you do them like the rest of the world.
Peaceful, non-violent, ready-to-suffer protest is one way that the truth and beauty of God's kingdom shines in this world.
Since Jesus has come, God exerts his right to rule in new and powerful ways.
The kingdom of God is present and future. There has been fulfillment, but there has not been consummation.
The kingdom has come and it has overcome the aimlessness and futility of our lives and given us an awesome reason to live.
Did the apostles have spiritual gifts that are now obsolete?
"Gifts of healings" and "workings of miracles" are for the church and the mission of Christ in the world today.
James 5 is a rebuke to pastors that never have the faith to heal and churches that don't pray in the spirit of Elijah.
The spiritual gift of prophecy has not passed away, but is meant for the good of the church until Jesus comes.
Prophecy is prompted and sustained by the Spirit and yet does not carry intrinsic, divine authority.
God doesn't tell us to forsake thinking and just listen for messages. He tells us to be changed in the way we think.
Deep down we know so much truth that we fear and therefore deny.
Jesus died to meet your needs. He rose to meet your needs. He reigns to meet your needs—and make you happy in him forever.
God causes us to persevere in the fight of faith. Therefore he gets the glory.
Through the sky God ministers humility and hope and healing and happiness.
How do you deal with sin in your life if you love God?
This age is too evil for us to treat fellowship as a kind of comfortable togetherness that has no transforming, empowering, explosive effect.
The book of Acts is not just the acts of the apostles; it is the acts of the risen, living, enthroned Jesus.
In order to be effective instruments of Jesus' life in the world, you need to be baptized in the Holy Spirit.
The extraordinary experience of being "clothed with power" is available to us for the fulfillment of the Great Commission.
The purpose of the Holy Spirit is invincible and he has an unwavering zeal for the glory of the God-man, Jesus.
When the Spirit comes in power, he comes suddenly—on his own terms and in his own time—and he comes for harvesting.
May God unite us in one vision of what he is doing so that we might not only endure but delight in the design of these days.
We live between the beginning of the kingdom of God and the consummation of the kingdom. What is that like?
Do you join God in his affirmation of Jesus, or do you stand against God in the life of Jesus?
Jesus, the Son of God, is alive today, and stands ready to serve you as your advocate with God the Father.
Even if you are a murderer of the Son of God, God himself is ready to forgive you! And not only to forgive you but to give you his Spirit!
A holy, happy fear of God makes our material possessions insignificant to us, except as means to serve others.
The Father is the ultimate source of all healing. Through Jesus the Father does his healing will.
God will one day establish the kingdom of Christ on the earth.
God is moving toward you today with blessing.
May the Lord forbid that we would lose heart and fail in the very thing needful: mighty prevailing prayer.

The Legends
The only legitimate child of Lord Byron, a well known Romantic poet most of us know from our AP English classes, Ada Lovelace was encouraged to study mathematics and science by her mother who feared that she would otherwise end up a poet like her father.
Lord Byron called her "The Princess of Parallelograms". Ada was introduced to Charles Babbage by Mary Somerville, her teacher and a noted scientific author. Ada wrote a program for Babbage's proposed Analytical Engine. Had the machine actually been built, her program could have calculated the Bernoulli number sequence. This is why Lovelace is popularly identified as the first computer programmer.
Impressed by her talent, Babbage called Ada "The Enchantress of Numbers". Forget this world and all its troubles and if possible its multitudinous Charlatans - every thing in short but the Enchantress of Numbers.
Was Ada the first ever computer programmer? Ada suggested and described several computer programs to concrete the idea of the Analytical engine, but hardly wrote them on her own. Nonetheless, without her beautiful prose, the Analytical engine would have remained in undocumented obscurity.
The programming language Ada, developed by the U.S. Department of Defense, was named in her honor.
A portrait of Ada Lovelace
Grace Hopper was a computer scientist with the U.S. navy. She was one of the first programmers of the Harvard Mark I calculator. Called 'Amazing Grace', Grace Hopper developed the first compiler for a computer programming language.
Grace was the first to receive the "Man of the Year" award from the Data Processing Management Association. She was the first woman of any nationality to be made a Distinguished Fellow of the British Computer Society.
Women employees at Microsoft formed an employee group called "Hoppers" in her honor that awards scholarships to promising candidates.

A mathematics student from Vassar College, Edith Clarke was the first female electrical engineer in the U.S. She was also the first woman to get an M.S. degree in electrical engineering from MIT.
Edith invented the Clarke calculator, a simple graphical device that solved line equations involving hyperbolic functions ten times faster than previous methods.
Being the first woman to deliver a paper at the American Institute of Electrical Engineers' annual meeting, Edith Clarke showed the use of hyperbolic functions for calculating the maximum power that a line could carry without instability.
Team of workers with the ENIAC - Adele Goldstine on the extreme right
Image Source: Computer Desktop Encyclopaedia
A pioneer in the field of operating systems, Adele wrote the complete technical description for the first digital computer, ENIAC.
Beginning in the fall of 1942 at the Moore School, Adele Goldstine began training women to calculate firing and bombing tables, using mechanical desk calculators. Known as "computers," the women selected for the program ultimately could perform the complex series of mathematical calculations in about one or two days. Along with Jean Bartik, she led a group that implemented John von Neumman's "stored program" computer. This solved the problem of the programmers having to reconfigure all of the cables for each equation that the machine solved.

Border feuds are normally associated with far-off countries, or with the wilder areas of Britain, such as the English/Scottish borderlands in the middle ages. It's less well known, however, that a border feud raged between Cheshunt and Waltham Abbey for at least six hundred years.
The River Lea (I resist the recent fashion to spell it Lee) has played a major part in history, forming as it does not only part of the border between Hertfordshire and Essex but, at one time, part of the border between England and the Danelaw.
In the year 894, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle relates, a Danish fleet sailed from the Thames up the River Lea, at that time considerably broader than now, reaching Ware. King Alfred had huge ditches dug near Cheshunt to draw off the waters, creating in place of the large river a marshland through which various streams wandered.
As a military strategy, this was a triumphal success, but Alfred left a more local problem. The boundary between the parishes of Cheshunt and Waltham Abbey, as well as the country border, was defined as the River Lea; however, as late as 1655, Dr Fuller's History of Waltham Abbey describes how
The River Ley seven times parteth from itself, whose tempestuous stream in coming to the town is crossed again with so many bridges.
So which stream was the border? The reason this was important was that the gradually drying marshland provided extraordinarily rich pasture: it's said that young cattle were restricted to half an hour's grazing a day, for fear of them overeating. Both parishes wanted as much of this land as possible, so Cheshunt claimed that the boundary was the easternmost stream, now the Old River Lea, whereas Waltham Abbey claimed it was the westernmost, the Small River Lea.
The first law-suit was brought in 1248, in which Peter, Duke of Savoy, Lord of the Manor of Cheshunt, made a claim against Simon, the Abbot of Waltham, for the disputed land, which eventually found in favour of Waltham Abbey.
This was not the end of the matter, though, and many disputes and fights erupted over the following centuries between the parishioners over this land. In 1601, for example, the parish records of Waltham Abbey record a dispute during the "beating the bounds" ceremony of Cheshunt:
The Curate of Cheshunt and some of the Churchwardens coming in their perambulation to our hye-bridge; and for so doing and coming out of their own libertye they were for their paynes thrust into a dych called Hook's Dich.
Even as late as 1870, a dispute arose when a piece of marshland near Cheshunt Lock, traditionally shared by the parishes, was fenced off by Cheshunt, and the Waltham Marshwardens forcibly opened it. Eventually, however, a compromise was reached, by which the southern part of the border follows the Small River Lea and the northern part the Old River Lea. With the decline of farming in the area, the issue has ceased to matter, and marshland on both sides of the border now forms the Nature Park, free to be enjoyed by all.
Claire Stretch - Lee Valley Park (Claire Stretch) / CC BY-SA 2.0
Looking at the marshes now I find it very difficult to recognise the area, as lads in the late thirties we would spend our summer days splashing about in the stream that ran paralell and between the railway and the Lea itself, at one part it used to be about four feet deep but as we were only 7/8yrs old it was deep enough to swim in. There were hardly any weeds to speak of but we had to spend a few minutes removing the leeches that had attached themselves to us, great fun. Our school (Kings Rd. Waltham Cross) used to take us to Cheshunt swimming baths for lessons, this was fed by the greeny brown water of the River Lea, it was open air,only heated by the sun and could be very cold. One night during the war we saw a mine hanging from a parachute drifting across our houses, it finally landed on the swimming baths flattening the dressing rooms. Not to be out done the sides were re-erected and with no roofs on it was business as usual rain or shine. Fishing in the big river was another pass time catching Roach and Perch but often had to move out of the way to allow horse drawn barges to pass, a wonderful touch of Old England. When we were a little older we would walk along the river bank to Broxbourne (no cars to run us about) and hire a sciff to race each other up the river, lovely memories of Hertfordshire, I now live in Dorset.

$1.5 Million Luxury Gown to Debut at Miami International Fashion Week
Filed under: Apparel
A creation of Jad Ghandour and Danasha Luxury, the "ultimate red carpet gown" is being kept under lock and key until March 20th but we do have this sketch and know it will feature lots of airy silver fabric, a belted waistline, and a special handset made of diamonds and 18k gold. And as for inspiration Ghandour's design team was quoted as saying they wanted "a gown that would highlight the finest materials without looking overwrought and costume-y."
Sounds like a modern-day Cinderella gown to me and I can't wait to see it.

Deprecated: Function split() is deprecated in /home/plumas6/public_html/lassennews.com/components/com_jcomments/jcomments.php on line 1245
Jan. 29, 2012 — Of late, gun control seems to be the topic one hears the most about whether at home, at work or out in the community and I have to admit, it's a tough topic for anyone to take on regardless of his or her stance.
It was also an interesting discussion between my husband and son during a 35-mile drive to the theater in Susanville.
Multi-generational due to a 34-year age gap, life experiences and my husband's service in the military made for a lively conversation.
Despite all those factors it was remarkable how in tune they were when it came to the topic of assault rifles and extended magazines and gun ownership in general.
The opinions they lobbed back and forth prompted me to take a look back at history.
The right to bear arms is a protection afforded under the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. It was proposed Sept. 25, 1789, and enacted as law Dec. 15, 1791, as part of the original Bill of Rights.
The short text of the Amendment reads, "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Looking back at history, one can see both the importance and relevance of the text.
From 1775 to 1783, 13 American colonies were at war with Great Britain and did not have for their protection the combined weapons and personnel of the armed forces of the United States.
Militiamen were volunteers comprised of farmers, neighbors and members of the business community. They were lightly armed with their own personal weapons, likely used for hunting and, in some circumstances, protection.
Upon the call to independence they came together from small local groups and from many areas of the colonies to serve. They faced tremendous odds and served up a great victory despite the fact that history is clear most members served briefly and fairly close to home: most assuredly one of the greatest challenges of that extended war.
History offers a clear definition of what a militia is, what purpose it served in the absence of trained military personnel and why the average person in that era should have the right to bear arms.
The questions being raised today and the many raised since the enactment of the law are primarily confrontational in nature.
There are those who are staunch gun owners or constitutionalists and those who just plain don't like government interference who take exception to the latest gun control proposals.
Then there is the average citizen who faces daily news blasts about the wars on crime, drugs, religion and even protests on war itself. Is it any wonder there is no clear consensus on the topic of gun control?
I know few people who would contest an individual's right to own a handgun for self-protection or a hobby at a firing range. The same goes for individuals who own rifles and shotguns for hunting and other sport.
As an American I have always appreciated the rights afforded to me and I do respect the rights of others. However, I am not blind to the fact the world we live in is a much different place then that of our country's Founding Fathers.
As I, too, served in the United States Army for many years, I fully understand the importance of a well-armed force to combat the precarious situations in which we find ourselves around the globe.
But, like the old saying goes, "there is a time and place for everything" and I believe the time and place for assault weapons and extended magazines is with our military in times of war and with law enforcement in critical situations when the public is in harm's way.
I think we have each had more than enough opportunity in the past decades to reach the understanding that while the Second Amendment protects the right to bear arms, it should not do so at the peril of fellow American civilians.
Just as some Americans have the right to buy and fire guns, others have the right to expect they can shop in a mall, send their children to school or attend a movie without tragic consequences.
While I am no fan of amending the Constitution, I do understand that change needs to happen and the sooner the better.
Militaries develop strategies to combat threats from all nations and, unfortunately, we Americans are seeing far too many threats within the borders of our own country.
There are many arguments out there about gun control and, again, I believe most of us understand that the problem with guns is not the average citizen but those with psychological issues or agendas.
I also believe most folks understand stricter rules on the average gun owner are not likely to lessen the number of guns used illegally on the street.
When it comes to gun control proposals and runaway violence I can honestly come to only one conclusion: there has to be a first step.
While I don't see much chance of compromise on the horizon, I hope cool minds prevail and a solution exists that with some sacrifice, we can come together to ensure we do make a difference in the future lives of many Americans.

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Wave Country Notes
United States of America
For a prolonged period, there was no official interest in wave energy in the USA. A number of devices were conceived but few made it past the drawing board. However, interest in wave energy has recently been rekindled, thanks in part to an extensive study undertaken by the Electrical Power Research Institute (www.epri.com/oceanenergy/waveenergy.html), which made a 'compelling case for investment in wave energy'. This interest is reflected at both a national and state level and a number of technologies have been developed.
Aerovironment (AV)
AV's device consists of a buoy anchored to the sea floor so that it floats beneath the surface (www.avinc.com/energy_lab_project_detail.php?id=68). As the float moves through the water vertically, responding to changes in pressure resulting from passing waves, it powers a generator on the sea bed (mechanism unspecified). A scale model completed testing in the Pacific Ocean with encouraging results, and plans for broad deployment are being developed. This concept is at the R&D stage.
Ocean Motion International
Ocean Motion International's technology uses a large buoyant vessel to which a number of heavy ballast masses are attached via a sleeve-type pump. The masses rise and fall in the waves, pumping water into a manifold to power a hydroelectric generator or a reverse osmosis (RO) unit. This concept is at the R&D stage (www.oceanmotion.ws).
Ocean Power Technologies (OPT)
OPT has a long history of developing its PowerBuoyTM. This system consists of a floating buoy that is moored to the sea bed so that it can freely move up and down in response to the waves. The movement is converted into rotational mechanical energy, which in turn drives the electrical generator, all of which are in a sealed unit. The control system collects data and adjusts the performance of the PowerBuoyTM system in real-time and on a wave-by-wave basis. The current device is about 17 m long, 3 m in diameter and is rated at 40 kW but OPT has plans for a 500 kW PowerBuoyTM system, with a diameter of nearly 14 m and a length of 20 m (www.oceanpowertechnologies.com). OPT has deployed single devices in Atlantic City (New Jersey) and Oahu (Hawaii) and has an agreement for another device at Santoña (Spain). Typically, these agreements allow OPT to demonstrate the performance of its device before going on to install arrays. OPT is the only wave energy developer to have successfully floated on the stock market, but it is expected that others will try to follow in 2007/8.
Independent Natural Resources, Inc. (INRI)
INRITM has recently developed the SEADOGTM pump (www.inri.us). This comprises a large piston operating over an air-filled buoyancy chamber. The piston moves up and down with the varying pressure under wave peaks and troughs and this movement drives a hydraulic pump to produce pressurised water, which is pumped to shore to produce potable water (via an RO unit) or electricity by filling a reservoir which is allowed to drain back to the sea via hydroelectric turbines. Each pump can produce several tens of kilowatts of power, so in practice an array of devices will be deployed. A single SEADOGTM prototype has been successfully tested in the Gulf of Mexico and the company has plans for deployment of a 16 device array off the Californian coast, which will produce just over 500 kW.
Scientific Applications & Research Associates (SARA)
SARA has developed a wave energy device to extract energy from waves using a magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) generator. It is designing a 100 kW prototype to demonstrate this principle, as well as developing a deep-ocean-moored device to use the MHD generator. This device is at the R&D stage (www.sara.com).
Seavolt's Wave Rider consists of a moored cam-shaped buoy which bobs up and down in the waves. This rolling action powers a hydraulics circuit connected to a motor and generator. The current status of this device is uncertain.

Women's Issues
Breast Cancer
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancers in women, with approximately 180,000 new cases developed each year in the United States. The disease can also occur in men, although they account for less than one in 100 breast cancer cases. Up to one in 10 cases of breast cancer is linked to an abnormal gene, and several of these genes have now been identified.
Menopause is the point in a woman's life when menstruation stops permanently. It is a normal consequence of the aging process. Often called the "change of life," menopause is the last stage of a gradual biological process in which the ovaries reduce their production of female sex hormones a process which begins about three to five years before the final menstrual period.
Osteoporosis, also called the "silent disease," is a common bone disease in which bones become thinner and more porous. Osteoporosis affects both men and women and occurs when the body fails to form new bone.
Pregnancy & Folic Acid
Folic Acid can decrease the risk for birth defects of the brain or spine. The U.S. Public Health Service recommends that all women who could possibly become pregnant get 400 micrograms (or 0.4 mg) of folic acid every day.
For many women, an easy way to ensure the proper levels of folic acid are maintained is to take a vitamin that contains folic acid or a folic acid supplement. Speak with your gynecologist about options for you.

Multi-type return functions.
- Code: Select all
{double, string, int} ParseValue(string);
void ReadConfig(string value) {
switch(ParseValue(value)) {
case double f: {
// we have a double named f that was returned from ParseValue() here
} break;
case string s: {
// this case is reached if ParseValue returns a string
// the return value is stored in s, naturally
} break;
case int i: {
// guess?
} break;
You can do this with exception syntax in a number of languages, and do it with manual type safety in most languages.
Even better syntax might be:
- Code: Select all
auto result = ParseValue(value);
which would basically do the above switch/case statement, but with the remaining body of code being the same.
Toss in the ability to do an explicit switch on the type of the variable...
Full-scale compile-time code generation, where you can build functions from primitive statements hooked together.
Incomplete functions with "loose" external references that can be hooked up by metaprogramming. Ie, a function might have a loose variable called "chicken" that needs to be bound before it can be used. You could place it into a class, and hook "chicken" up to a class variable, or you could wrap it with another function that accepts "chicken" as a parameter.
Multiple parallel type systems. I want to be able to decorate something with physics-style dimensional notation, etc, but still be the same underlying computational type. Units with restricted conversion between them. Algebras with limited valid symbols. This should work at both compile and run time (often dimensional analysis can be checked before you actually execute a formula or algorithm).
Compile and run-time type checking. I want to be able to request compile-time guaranteed type-checking in my code, and if the compiler cannot guarantee it, it would generate an error. I also want run-time type checking when it is a better option, both automatic and manual.
Named arguements. Everywhere.
Compile-time type-safe varargs. Run-time type-safeable varargs.
The ability to build expression tree syntax with minimal effort. The ability to include compile-time guarantees in my expression tree syntax.
classes. classes of classes. classes of classes of classes. Virtual classes. Virtual classes of classes. Virtual classes of virtual classes. Classes of virtual classes of classes.
method-level polymorphism. Run-time polymorphism. Compile-time-locked polymorphism. duck-type polymorphism.
In essence, I want leverage. I want my language to let me rewrite large chunks of the language that is used to write the language to write my code. I want to be able to write code that writes code that writes code, and have the debugger be able to point at the code that wrote the code that wrote the code that I am running, and say "unhandled division by zero here".
That is what I want for christmas.
Anyone else?

As we recently announced, The BedandBreakfast.com Diamond Collection program has expanded to Canada.
Abbeymoore Manor Bed and Breakfast Inn is a brand-new Diamond Collection member in Victoria, British Columbia in Canada. It currently has an overall perfect rating on BedandBreakfast.com, and it was awarded a Top 10 Overall B&B in Canada in the 2011-2012 Best of BedandBreakfast.com Awards.
The following review was left by a traveler for a stay in August 2011.
"Outstanding Hosts"If you're looking for comfortable surroundings, outstanding breakfast food and even more personable hosts, look no further. We choose the Abbeymore just by perusing websites, loved the look of this place and lo and behold, the looks are not deceiving. If Ian [the innkeeper] was any more friendly, we'd have brought him home. The rooms are each unigue and comfortable. The sheets are so soft and comfy, we ordered a set for ourselves. Ian also had excellent recommendations for things to do and place to eat lunch and dinner. Heartily recommend this place!

It wasn't until much later, probably in the last 2.5 billion-3 billion years that life learned the trick of using the sun's energy to produce oxygen via photosynthesis.
That seems to be rather an anthropocentric view of what happened. It makes rather more sense to say that life discovered a process which had a seriously side effect -- and it was a side effect, not something that contributed to the lifeform involved. It produced a waste product (oxygen) which was extremely toxic to all of the other forms of life in the ecosystem. (In addition to its impact on the geology of the planet.) That would have wiped out most of the other existing life forms, save a few in environments where oxygen couldn't reach.
We talk about ecological catastrophies, like the one which wiped out the dinosaurs. But this one would have been far, far more destructive.

Senate Session (September 10) (right-click to copy direct link)
Social Media Stream
Washington, DC Monday, September 16, 2013
United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon called the report on the use of chemical weapons in Syria "chilling reading" and declared that "this is a war crime and a violation of international law."
Ban Ki-Moon stressed that the attack was the largest chemical weapons incident since 1988, when the regime of Saddam Hussein used gas against Iraqi civilians in Halabja.
The Secretary General said the report, which was submitted to the Security Council and released to the public today, clearly showed that chemical weapons were used in the Ghouta area of Damascus on August 21, with resulting civilian casualties. He said that blood samples taken from victims and fragments from rockets used to deliver the weapons tested positive for sarin gas.
While he called for accountability for the perpetrators of the attack, Ban Ki-Moon added that determining who was responsible is the subject of ongoing discussions in the Security Council.
This past weekend Sec. of State John Kerry met with his Russians counterpart and agreed to a proposal on Syria giving up and international parties destroying Syria's chemical weapons. Syria has announced that it is willing to join the Chemical Weapons Convention and allow its chemical stockpile to be placed under international control and eventually destroyed. Standing next to the Russian Foreign Minister, Secretary Kerry on Thursday repeated U.S. claims that Syrian President Assad used chemical weapons against his own people. He addressed new reports that the Assad regime wants 30 days to submit information about its weapons, rejecting the idea. He also stated some areas where the U.S. and Russia are in agreement on this issue. Meanwhile, Syria took the first step in giving up its chemical weapons stockpiles on Thursday by submitting an application to join the United Nations' Chemical Weapons Convention. Last Tuesday, Pres. Obama stated that he was willing to discuss the proposal, but a military strike is still an option. Congress has postponed any votes to authorize a strike until discussions between the U.S. and other parties is completed. Last week, administration officials continued to brief Congress, including National Security Adviser Susan Rice, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Sec. Kerry, Defense Sec. Chuck Hagel and Joints Chief Chair Mike Dempsey. On Saturday, August 31, President Obama announced that he would seek Congressional approval to launch a series of targeted military strikes on Syria in retaliation for the Assad regime's use of chemical weapons against rebels on August 21. This announcement came after the White House released an intelligence report on the attack, which Sec. Kerry urged all Americans to read. U.N. inspectors were in the country two weeks ago to investigate the earlier reports of chemical weapons use, and were granted access to the site of the most recent reports. While traveling to that site, a U.N. convoy was shot at, disabling a vehicle and causing a delay in their inspections.

Just love this game! Using your finger, you have to kick the ball in the goal and score. Several play modes like arcade or time attack. The graphics and sounds are amazing. The controls to play this game (swipe your finger across the screen) is also pretty good implemented. Well worth the money!

Why is atheist a bad word? How do we flip this word because I don't think I can (honestly) call myself anything else!
"Realist" works, too, but as Loren said, I prefer being a capital-A, in-your-face, no-euphemisms Atheist. It's NOT a "bad" or impolite word as is the f-word. It's just a descriptive word.
The sad truth is that Atheist is a word that has been marred by centuries of religious indoctrination and misconception. It doesn't help that it's still going on.
Are you dealing with people who don't understand that using "a" as a prefix indicates a negative? I mean if you say, "I'm an atheist," you're not saying "I'm an a theist," are you?
That makes no sense. It's certainly atypical.
(English Curmudgeon)
Heh! They're probably rehearsing their seasonal phoney outrage acts. You know, "poor little persecuted us...war on xmas...blah...blah....blah." Hoping to get their 15 seconds of fame on FAUX GNUZ. They love feeling persecuted; makes 'em feel important instead of insignificant.
Future, I read that at first as "goddess", lol. Yes, godless is really a good word to use.
In preparation for my appointment to the remaining term of a deceased village government trustee on December 3, I contacted the village clerk in advance to inform her I would prefer to take the affirmation of office, as provided by the Nebraska constitution, rather than the oath of office.
(She is also not yet aware that I am working with the folk in Lincoln on organising a chapter of the Secular Coalition of America here in Nebraska. Someone over here in the unpopulated western part needs to do it, so I guess that is me.)
We have never had overt discussions of my religious opinions (or lack thereof), as I don't bring them up unless someone else does first. (The JW's who have been working over the village lately astutely avoid my house - must have been the bumper stickers on our old car.)
On the other hand, we are the most popular house for the kids to hit on Hallowe'en - as an ex-Wiccan my wife and I always have the best candy.
The village clerk's response? "Oh, Travis (the village and county attorney) will administer the oath, and he knows you're an atheist, so he will administer the affirmation of office for you. By the way, you are first up on the agenda."
Even though this is allegedly the most religiously-oriented state outside the Bible belt, there is not much fun in being an atheist: not even a good mob carrying pitchforks and torches. They only care if I mow my lawn and pay my taxes.
And despite the divisiveness of the local board elections (an incumbent was ousted in a tie vote after a card deck cut), the board members still maintain I was the least divisive candidate to fill the term of its deceased member. Go figure. - James.
Coming from a tiny community in north central Kansas I can relate to much of what you say, at least I think I can. That was good commentary and fun to read.
I am sure I could inspire many, many prayers if I were to return home. They would wonder why I was still "a good boy," if I had turned to the other side.
I do digress. Good job and good luck with the affirmation. I did not know about such a thing.
All I know is that I haven't been able to come out as an Atheist to my religious friends yet. I don't even dance around the subject. I just nod my head when they say something about their god and change the subject. The most I could manage to say in that context - at this point in my life - is that I'm "not really religious." But more and more I've just been wanting to throw into conversation, "I don't believe in god."
But when I meet people who are non-religious I start dancing around the subject and then exclaim with glee I'm an atheist! When I'm sure they'll still accept me.
Atheist is still a bad word. But I hate Agnostic. It's such a cop-out.
I'm just beginning to learn about secular, humanist, and skeptic labels.

Thermal Investigations of a Battery Electric Vehicle with a coupled Matlab® Flowmaster™ Simulation
Battery electric vehicles, or BEVs, not only allow for emission free traveling but are also capable of offsetting carbon dioxide emissions in the environment. While the most environmentally conscientious drivers are happy to do their duty to protect and preserve the climate, this cannot come at the detriment of speed, endurance, and comfort.
"By analyzing different drive cycles for various environmental conditions and considering the comfort of the passenger, one thing above all else, becomes the key driver in battery electric vehicle design, the driving range of the car must be substantial if it is to be competitive in today's marketplace."
Flowmaster is a 1D general purpose CFD solution for thermo fluid system engineers to model and analyze the fluid mechanics and pipe flow in complex systems. View Product Overview
Markus Auer of the University of Stuttgart explores the influence of battery temperature and air conditioning (passenger comfort) on the battery and the range for the vehicle. Several key factors are considered as boundary conditions. A Flowmaster model was set up and linked with Matlab/Simulink to simulate the vehicle, including a complex battery thermal model.
The Problem
By design, battery electric vehicles are more energy efficient than combustion driven vehicles resulting in much less wasted heat to warm the passenger cabin. Therefore, the cabin has to be heated with energy delivered from another source or from the battery. However when the energy is taken from the battery, the effective range of the vehicle is drastically reduced. Hence, thermal as well as energy management is very important.
The Solution
The crucial factor for the successful introduction to market of electric powered vehicles is a substantial driving range. Nevertheless, the comfort of the car is an important factor that no car owner is willing to forgo. If the energy for heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) is drawn from the traction battery, the driving range is affected severely, putting comfort in competition with the driving range for energy. To accurately predict how the driving range is influenced by the need for comfort, a predictive simulation tool is required. To begin the vehicle is modeled via a coupled simulation between Matlab/Simulink and Flowmaster. The desired driving cycle is defined by a velocity over time profile. Based on vehicle parameters, such as drag coefficient and frontal area, the necessary torque and rotational speed of the electric motor are calculated and are used to calculate the heat flux of the varying components. The derived heat fluxes as well as different rotational speeds of the electric AC compressor and electric coolant pumps are fed into the thermo hydraulic solver in Flowmaster. Based on the values and the thermo hydraulic model, Flowmaster calculates the temperatures and required electric power which are then sent back to Matlab.
The Results
By analyzing different drive cycles for various environmental conditions and considering the comfort of the passenger, one thing above all else, becomes the key driver in battery electric vehicle design, the driving range of the car must be substantial if it is to be competitive in today's marketplace. All these parameters influence battery performance which is why efficient battery cooling and heating, is extremely important for the range and battery lifetime. This is especially significant as the efficient working temperature range is narrow. Not to mention additional power consumers such as infotainment systems and charging of any consumer electronics, such as cell phones, which were not considered in this study but are ever-increasing in today's automotive environment.This study is an excellent demonstration of the use of system simulation coupled with a complex battery model and an energy manager in Matlab/Simulink to improve the driving range of a battery electric vehicle.
About the University of Stuttgart
Markus Auer studied Automotive Engineering at the University of Stuttgart, Germany. He is working as a research assistant since October 2010 at the Institute of Internal Combustion Engines and Automotive Engineering (Institut für Verbrennungsmotoren und Kraftfahrtwesen) of the University of Stuttgart with a focus on battery electric vehicles

The Alpine Association of Slovenia (PZS) is inviting young mountaineers to a ski touring camp in Slovenia from March 1 – March 7, 2009. The event will be next year's first Global Youth Summit event.
Engineer and mountaineer Pit Schubert has been elected the UIAA's latest honorary member, in thanks for his extensive work on making the sport safer. The German climber played a major role in establishing the UIAA Safety Label standards for mountaineering equipment.
From 1973 until 2004, Schubert was a member of the UIAA Safety Commission and for the last eight years he served as president. He founded the Safety Commission of the German Alpine Association (DAV) in 1968 and was the association's safety director for 32 years.
Originally Pit Schubert trained as a mechanical engineer and worked for 15 years in the aeronautics and space industries.
The UIAA has nominated Dawa Steven Sherpa for the IOC Environmental Award, which recognises and encourages the implementation of good environmental practices in the field of sport.
The Ice Climbing season begins on January 16. The first event of the UIAA World Cup will take place in Val Daone, Italy.
The Mountain Club of South Africa (MCSA) is inviting young mountaineers to an international youth meet, "Trekking in South Africa's 'Dragon Mountains'".
The Medical Commission has updated and expanded its list of resource papers and frequently asked questions aimed at climbers and doctors.
Linda McMillan, the new president of the UIAA Mountain Protection Commission, brings with her broad experience from representation of climbers in environmental projects.
The UIAA is pursuing disciplinary proceedings against French Ski Mountaineering athlete Patrick Blanc, who tested positive after the 2008 Patrouille des Glaciers, the long distance teams' world championship.
Doctors from 15 countries have met in the Czech Republic to discuss mountain medicine and how to better spread accurate information amongst UIAA members.
Nearly 50 climbers from 23 countries took part in the American Alpine Club's first international climbing meet in Indian Creek, Utah from October 3-10.

NFL Divisional Playoff Ratings Paint An Interesting Picture
Ratings for the NFL Divisional playoffs are in, and like last week's Wild Card games, some interesting trends have emerged.
The Packers-Giants game drew the highest amount of viewers EVER for a Divisional game, with 45.1 million viewers and a 25.3 rating, the highest rating since 1997 (Cowboys vs....Panthers? Yes, Panthers). The second highest amount of viewers for a game was not in fact Tim Tebow's Broncos against Tom Brady's Patriots, but the thrilling Niners-Saints game from Saturday afternoon with 35.6 million viewers. While the Broncos-Patriots game was third of the four games in total viewers, both Saturday games were the highest rated divisional games in their timeslots in history. Bringing up the rear in the playoff games was the Ravens-Texans game, with 31 million viewers.
What does all of this actually tell us, though? The fact that the heavily hyped Tebow-Brady showdown, which was a stinker of a game, finished third out of the four games in the ratings shows that fans care more about the actual on-field product as opposed to the hype behind it. A lot of fans could have tuned in at the beginning of the game, saw it begin to get out of hand, and tuned out. I know that's what I did. Meanwhile, the Saints-Niners game with its crazy finish drew in more viewers late as Twitter exploded with reactions to the multiple lead changes in the fourth quarter.
But the big story is the record-breaking ratings for the 15-1 Packers versus the Giants, who played their way into the playoffs on the final week and put on a minimally entertaining game in the Wild Card round against the Falcons. Because of the story of the Packers trying to repeat, and the size of the New York media market, more eyeballs were drawn to that game than there probably should have. So maybe there is something to the story behind the game... but only when on-field performance warrants it. While the Patriots-Broncos game was a blowout at halftime, the Packers and Giants game was tight, and the lure of the upset was alive and well the entire time. Even if it's a blowout, you don't turn off an upset. This is what happened in this game...
