Inmate Mails Egg, Judge Mimics Dr. Seuss
As the Associated Press reported, an inmate of a federal prison in New Hampshire was unhappy with the diet, so he sent a complaint - and a boiled egg - to a judge. U.S. District Court Judge James Muirhead answered as follows:I do not like eggs in the file. I do not like them in any style. I will not take them fried or boiled. I will not take them poached or broiled. I will not take them soft or scrambled/Despite an argument well-rambled. No fan I am/Of the egg at hand. Destroy that egg! Today! Today! Today I say! Without delay!I'd be interested in seeing the bookshelf in the judge's chambers.

There's plenty more going on throughout the week at Camp Friedlander. Check out all the great activities and programs we have planned...
The twelfth point of the Scout Law is "A Scout is Reverent." Every Scout is encouraged to fulfill his religious obligations while attending camp. The summer camp staff will include a Resident Chaplain who will give leadership to our Sunday night non-denominational religious service and serve as an on-site counselor to Scouts in need. Nestled in a grove of evergreen trees, the chapel will be an oasis for reflective inspiration.
We at Camp Friedlander believe very strongly in a religious awareness at our camp. Your Chaplain is there to add a spiritual element to the camp, as well as make sure all the boys are comfortable during their stay. A Camp Chaplain will be available for counseling and can be contacted very easily. We will accommodate any program or food restrictions due to religious beliefs. We do ask that if you have any such restrictions that you please inform us in writing at least two weeks ahead of time so that we can be adequately prepared to meet your needs.

If there's a little bit more flight in Jo-Wilfried Tsonga's post-match celebrating hops, it might be because the Frenchman feels as though he's standing on sturdier ground at this year's Australian Open.
The reason? He's got an Aussie in his corner.
Beginning in October, the world No.7 partnered up with Roger Rasheed, the former coach of Lleyton Hewitt and – more recently – fellow Frenchman Gael Monfils.
On Monday at Rod Laver Arena, Tsonga won through a tough test with compatriot Richard Gasquet 6-4 3-6 6-4 6-2, booking a place in the quarterfinals against either Roger Federer or Milos Raonic.
So how's Tsonga's Australian lingo coming?
"G'day mate," he joked with a smile during an on-court interview. Rasheed looked on from the player's box half smirking, half shaking his head.
While the accent needs a little work, Tsonga's game has been raised a level thanks to Rasheed, who Tsonga revealed is working on "everything" to make him better.
"It's different because last year I was by myself," Tsonga said, noting he was coachless prior to Rasheed.
"This year, I'm with Rog. It's just great to be with him. He give me good advice, so I hope I will continue to play good tennis and hope we'll have some good victory together."
So far, so good for Tsonga and Rasheed. At the Hopman Cup earlier this month, the 27-year-old won three matches and has notched four more here in Melbourne, making another run to try to emulate his finals appearance from 2008.
It was during that tournament in 2008 that Tsonga and Gasquet met in the fourth round, Tsonga emerging victorious in four sets.
If history is to repeat itself, then the 188cm Frenchman may have to go through Federer in the quarterfinals, a player he's faced in that same round twice before at majors – beating him at Wimbledon in 2011 but faltering weeks later at the US Open.
"I expect a good opponent. If it's Rog, it's going to be, of course, very difficult," Tsonga noted.
"I lost many times against this guy. So, of course, you know, play against him, it's going to be a big challenge for me. And if it's Raonic, I know he's confident."
But Tsonga, who has won nine career titles as a pro, should have a smattering of confidence should he face Federer knowing that he's beaten him three times.
It's a sort of confidence that is present, but Rasheed's added confidence buoys it ever more.
"[Rasheed]'s giving me an extra motivation," Tsonga admitted. "I mean, it's great because he's always positive. He want maybe more than me to win. He's incredible. So, you know, I try to be at his level and have exactly the same motivation because I think he can move some mountains … because he's very motivated."
Federer is a mountain that may be hardest to move on tour along with Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic, a group that Tsonga has been trying to join – along with the injured Rafael Nadal – for years now. A breakout win here – and nothing less – would finally prove to Tsonga that he belongs.
"To win majors, that's my goal," Tsonga said earlier in the tournament.
A major shift in mentality has taken place for Tsonga on court, who notes his ultimate appreciation for Federer's game as a fellow competitor, but says he steps on the court and sees him as the enemy, the one he has to beat.
"I have respect for him outside of the court, and on the court I have to – how you say? – unrespect him? Because if you respect him too much, then for sure you lost. So it's different on the court. On the court, I will try to beat him. And I'm sure it's going to be the same thing for him."
There is noted improvement in Tsonga's physique, the thickly-built baseline puncher with a booming serve and dangerous forehand looking more svelte, moving on the courts of Melbourne Park more smoothly this year and attacking, as he did effectively against a softer-hitting Gasquet on Monday, with purpose.
While Jo-Wilfried's game has come to form, what about his Australian coach's French?
"Still the same," Tsonga said, laughing. "Just 'bonjour'."

Yh, but you have to love the MySQL stuff, im always doing mysql stuff, Im in love with an app called, `Sequel Pro` http://www.sequelpro.com/ (free as well)
I'm more of a PHPMyAdmin guy. Comes with Mamp and has everything you need.
I'll be honest, Ive seen the video, only… I was more impressed with how they built the video on their homepage, rather then what's being said in the video.
purethemes said
Just curious, how that is related with IDE functionality? I mean how IDE can have build in MVC separation? I though it's rather how project you're working on is build.
How does Built-In MySQL Editor make any IDE better then the other?
You won't always need MySQL, and you won't always be working with HTML & CSS . And you won't always be working with MVC .
Does that mean they can not help you improve the workflow for it. You won't need it for every project. But it would sure help if you could easily work on 1 page and easily access the related MVC files.
I don't mean MVC Generation either, I'm talking about accessing files through sub Tabs or something.
Not interested unless they come up with MVC separation built in. It's the only feature, I seem to be missing from any IDE these days.
Oh, well, that's my bad.
I guess this topic might as very well be removed then.
Hey guys, since my new web service launched I decided to give anyone a chance to try it out completely free and without restrictions. I am not trying to spam or anything. I used some code canyon files to speed up development of the website. So big thanks to gewa13 for Membership Manager Pro you dude helped me save a lot of time!
The service is a [link removed], and it allows you to upload your videos within minutes rather then hours. We use FTP to allow users to upload their videos super fast. And a 100Mbps connection for sending videos to Youtube.
You can even upload videos out front, and plan for them to be uploaded on a scheduled date. How cool is that?
Anyway, anyone can get a free 2 week trial, no restrictions, no credit card mumbo jumbo… free! Try it out for yourself! And feel free to give us feedback!
The reason why people use licenses like the MIT license rather then copyrighting stuff themselves is because copyrighting costs a lot of money.
However, this guy didn't even probably bother reading the MIT license himself. Why should he get a cut of anything of yours. He made it for free under the MIT license and changing that afterwards is just a dick move.
Just watch him. Nothing is going to happen. He doesn't have the money to sue you or he wouldn't be trying to ripping you off in the first place.
I could tell you… but then I'd have to kill you. JK
I always wanted to say that.
The git installer worked, thanks. Now that I got GCC I can try installing the rest.
Yeah, I purchased a Macbook Pro. Was about time, so I'm new at Mac Operating system. Anyhow, I noticed. My Macbook didn't seem to have PEAR installed.
Quick Google search came up with, use Wget. But guess what. I don't have Wget installed. Seems that the Curl alternative does work but I wanted to install Wget nonetheless.
Found a quick solution to installing wget but it requires me to compile. Now were getting somewhere right? Okay so get this. I already installed XCode the other day so I have it installed.
As posted somewhere in the comments someone said that you need GCC , and it came on the second disc with your mac. Now this is what I don't get. Last time I checked, this thing didn't come with a disc. That's right. Booted it up, got an installer for Mac OSX and just followed the installer. But I never put a disc in if I ever recall.
Okay, so here I am. Wondering why I don't have a disc with some sort of tools required to run this stuff. So can please someone help me figure out what I need to do in order for this to work?
What I would love is that Wget and PEAR works. Now I can figure it all out myself if only I knew how to get these build tools. That I read about. My Terminal says this exactly:
configure: error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH
I already have XCode installed. Now I'm stuck. Anyone in a mood to help me out? Thanks
I was using the following articles to get things done by the way: http://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.getting.phphttp://www.renownedmedia.com/blog/install-wget-on-os-x-lion/

Motion: | 2002-Apr-#12 |
Topic: | Request General Assembly funding of enrollment increases |
Proposed by: | UNCCH Faculty Council |
Disposition: | Adopted 4/02 |
Whereas the General Statutes of North Carolina declare it to be the mission of The University of North Carolina to discover, create, transmit, and apply knowledge to address the needs of individuals and society through instruction, research, and public service[1] and
Whereas the Constitution of North Carolina directs the General Assembly to extend the benefits of The University of North Carolina, as far as practicable, to the people of the State free of expense;[2] and
Whereas Governor Michael F. Easley, in his inaugural address, affirmed the fundamental policy that North Carolina must keep open the doors of educational opportunity for all North Carolina??s citizens throughout their lives;[3] and
Whereas sound enrollment planning for The University of North Carolina requires that enrollment growth be supported by adequate financial resources; and
Whereas the major revenues available to The University of North Carolina for the support of its basic mission are State appropriations, tuition, and student fees; and
Whereas the ability of The University to generate revenues to support enrollment growth from sources other than tuition and fees is extremely limited and inadequate; and
Whereas repeated reductions in State appropriations over the past decade have severely limited the ability of The University to accommodate increased enrollments through further economies in expenditures; and
Whereas it would be contrary to the public policy of North Carolina to convert The University of North Carolina from a State-supported institution, funded as far as practicable by appropriations of public funds, to an institution under the patronage of the State but largely funded by tuition and fees; now therefore
Be it Resolved:
The Faculty Assembly of The University of North Carolina calls on the General Assembly to provide for projected enrollment increases in The University of North Carolina as part of the continuation budget for the 2002-03 and future fiscal years.
[1] N.C. Gen. Stat. § 116-1.
[2] N.C. Const. Art. IX, § 9.

The facility specializes in baseball and softball, featuring five Iron Mike batting-cage machines that spit out fast-pitch softballs and baseballs at speeds of up to 75 miles per hour. Sixteen drop-down batting cages match with the ProBatter PX2 simulator to test players' swings, while coaches, including former professional players, teach hitting, fielding, and pitching skills. The all-season complex is also home to winter baseball and soccer leagues that let players practice their skills without having to face a team of snow wraiths.
While the Titanic won the title of the largest ship of its day, it's still helping to break records 100 years after its fatal voyage. That's because Creepy Ridge's trifecta of haunted attractions includes a replica of the ship's cabin, and it's currently being verified as the world's largest hay wagon by the Guinness Book of World Records. You'll start your terrifying journey inside the ship, encountering the ghosts of many of the vessel's lost souls before docking and checking in to the Death Row Haunted Motel. There, you'll come face-to-face with other horrors, such as tiny toiletries that replenish themselves every time you leave. Should you survive long enough to check out, magic shows from Allen the Astonisher await to awe and inspire every half hour, and a nearby concession booth serves up hot dishes and drinks such as funnel cakes, hot chocolate, and cookies.
Proceeds from the night's attractions go to help the Arc of Northern Kentucky's mission to help provide opportunities to special-needs children.

In the summer, each of three 18-hole mini-golf courses features a different Biblical theme, placing obstacles such as Noah's ark amid a landscape of streams and waterfalls. An indoor ice rink helps skaters escape the blizzards of candy canes and stinging tinsel that plague the winter months; coaches lead beginner lessons, and crowds hit the ice for public skating sessions. After detaching the skate blades from their tennis shoes, visitors can head to the center's three full indoor courts to practice basketball or soccer, or simply sit and ponder the flavors of Gatorade that have once graced their hallowed floors.
Owners Larry and Angie Doherty utilize their more than 20 years of combined education and supervision experience to make Outside In Family Fun Center a safe, entertaining destination for adults and demi-adults alike. Putt away cares with a loved one during a saunter through the center's 18-hole minigolf course (prices varies by age), or set a youngster (12 years or younger) loose in one of the cartoon-clad inflatable bounce houses to see how long it takes for him or her to get tired or befriend a migrating bullfrog. Outside In is open seven days a week, from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday.
At Theatres of Georgetown, seven bright screens, booming speakers, and the thrum of cooking popcorn kindle guests' imaginations for nights of cinematic excitation. In preparation for celluloid adventures, moviegoers stroll past a concession stand bustling with staffers coaxing popped corn kernels into buckets and loading cups with sips of effervescing soda in preparation for coming film fiestas. Each theater's stadium seating facilitates clear sightlines to enjoy current spectacles in wide release or the slideshow of the projectionist's trip to Pismo Beach. A friendly, outgoing staff mans the many stations of the theater and dons costumes of their favorite characters for big film releases, parading into the streets to generate a fervor for Theatres of Georgetown's next midnight showing or themed phantasmagoria.

Jurassic Snacks With Astrid And Max, A Recipe Book For Boys And Girls - Sam Bartlett:
My aim was to try and engage children with cooking in a new way, through 'narrative recipe'. Recipe books aimed at children are all written in the same methodical approach as those books aimed at adults, they might have a few more exciting characters, brighter colours and easier recipes, but these seem to be the only discernable differences.
My books tell the story of Astrid and Max, two dinosaurs with a passion for cooking; each 8-step guide is easy for children to follow, and sees them create a healthy snack/drink.
In every paperback collectable book there are pink preparation pages (for parents to see the ingredients and method needed) and white colouring in and activity pages at the back for children (for something to do whilst waiting for things to cook).

A New York couple rushes toward the Hudson River at the end of a January day, eager to see the sunset.

When it flashes forward two decades, it shows a world that has been altered by climate change. Trees bloom in January. A February day hits 89 degrees.

Even George Monbiot (possible namesake of "moonbat") admits that his fellow "Greens" have confused the message by trying to simultaneously claim we are about to run out of fossil fuels, and that continuing burning fossil fuels is going to destroy the Earth. He admits that there is no shortage of fossil fuels at all, and that is what bothers him.http://www.smalldeadanimals.com/archives/016748.html
So what's in the new e-mails? The blog TallBloke has already begun crowdsourcing the cache, and finds a few tidbits from Penn State's Michael Mann, among others, assuming that these are genuine (via Watts Up With That):
<1939> Thorne/MetO: Observations do not show rising temperatures throughout the tropical troposphere unless you accept one single study and approach and discount a wealth of others. This is just downright dangerous. We need to communicate the uncertainty and be honest. Phil, hopefully we can find time to discuss these further if necessary [...] <1611> Carter: It seems that a few people have a very strong say, and no matter how much talking goes on beforehand, the big decisions are made at the eleventh hour by a select core group. <2884> Wigley: Mike, The Figure you sent is very deceptive [...] there have been a number of dishonest presentations of model results by individual authors and by IPCC [...] <3373> Bradley: I'm sure you agree–the Mann/Jones GRL paper was truly pathetic and should never have been published. I don't want to be associated with that 2000 year "reconstruction". <3115> Mann: By the way, when is Tom C going to formally publish his roughly 1500 year reconstruction??? It would help the cause to be able to refer to that reconstruction as confirming Mann and Jones, etc. <3940> Mann: They will (see below) allow us to provide some discussion of the synthetic example, referring to the J. Cimate paper (which should be finally accepted upon submission of the revised final draft), so that should help the cause a bit. <0810> Mann: I gave up on Judith Curry a while ago. I don't know what she think's she's doing, but its not helping the cause [...]
Well, we all know that science is all about supporting a cause rather than testing hypotheses and eliminating them when evidence arises to their contrary. Maybe the previous whitewash on the first Climategate will have to get revisited. In the meantime, if these e-mails are genuine, expect skepticism about AGW theory to rise even more.
When it flashes forward two decades, it shows a world that has been altered by climate change. Trees bloom in January. A February day hits 89 degrees. Lawns and golf courses vanish because of water shortages.
The most striking take-away from the emails is how obsessed the climatologists seemed to be with media coverage – almost as if they were public relations associates as opposed to scientists. The extent of cooperation between the climate researchers and some friendly news outlets is also fascinating. (David Rose has an excellent article exploring the connections between East Anglia and the BBC.)One New York Times writer, Andy Revkin, pops up numerous times in the emails. During the time the conversations took place, Revkin was a supposedly objective reporter on the environmental beat for the Times. He became an opinion blogger for the paper after leaving the news section at the end of 2009, which seems to be a better fit after reading some of his emails.

RE: How have things changed (or not) for small towns in America?
I lived for a year when I was 9 in a town of about 200 people and loved it. It was great for a child in the early 1940s as there was unfettered freedom and support in and from the community. My mother hated living there, and I can now understand why. I've not lived in a town of less than 25,000 since then and most of my adult life have lived in large cities, so my experience with small towns is not current. However, when I visited a cousin in a small town similar to the one I lived in for that year about 10 years it ago, it took me back in time. Things seemed to be very much as they were when I was 9 and that's not all bad.

Glenda Miller Rigby of Farmington, peacefully returned home to her Heavenly Father and into the waiting arms of the love of her life, Lawrence Rex Rigby on January 15, 2013. She was born on October 4, 1930 in Salt Lake City to Glen and Wilma Goodridge Miller. Glenda lived her whole life in good ole "Farnigan" (as she called it). She attended Farmington Elementary on the hill where Monte Vista is now located and South Davis Junior High, where she played the trumpet in the school band. She went on to Davis High School where she served in many leadership positions, and as the Pro Schola President and graduated from LDS seminary. Glenda married Lawrence Rex Rigby on August 26, 1949 in the Salt Lake Temple. They were the proud parents of two sons, Ronald Rex Rigby and Randall L. Rigby.
Glenda lived life to the fullest. She loved people and enjoyed serving her family, church and community. There wasn't anything that Glenda couldn't do. She could be seen around town driving her grey tractor doing good from pulling out a stump to scraping mud off the street after the mud slide. She was a very talented athlete, playing basketball, tennis, volleyball and softball (pitching until she was 70 years old). She taught swimming lessons at Lagoon and was a beautiful swimmer and was asked to attend a top school for synchronized swimming. She served the youth as coach, teacher, sports director, camp director and Young Women Ward and Stake President. She helped 31 young men attain the rank of eagle. She served in many church callings and was an outstanding Relief Society President in the Farmington First Ward. She was the first woman to serve on the Farmington City Council. She served as a church service missionary at the Church Office Building in Salt Lake and as an ordinance worker in the Bountiful Temple for many years. In 2001 she was Woman of the Year in Farmington. That same year she participated in the Hill Cumorah Pageant as a cast member. She had many friends and went on trips with them as well as her family. Glenda, in her senior years, taught the young women at the youth correctional center located at the Davis County Jail. She was always optimistic and brought sunshine into the lives of others. She was preceded in death by her parents, husband and brother, William E. (Billy) Miller. She is survived by her two sons, Ron (Karen) Rigby, Randy (Sandra) Rigby and her brother, Charlie (Lorna) Miller, nine grandchildren and twenty great grandchildren.
A viewing will be held on Tuesday, January 22, 2013 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Russon Brothers Mortuary, 1941 North Main, Farmington and Wednesday, Jan. 23 from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Rock Church, 272 N. Main Street, Farmington prior to the funeral service at 11 a.m. Mom you are Super Colossal!

text: Home Culture Hudlin: 'Django' Has Clear Morals The film vet says his latest production is controversial but gives an honest vision of right and wrong. By: Helena Andrews Posted: Dec. 23 2012 12:03 AM 0 Django Unchained co-producer Reginald Hudlin (Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images Entertainment) (The Root) -- Django Unchained sounds like a pretty hard sell. Django (Jamie Foxx), a black slave-turned-superhero, slays every racist dragon in his gun-smoked path? But veteran writer-producer Reginald Hudlin (House Party, The Bernie Mac Show, Boomerang) didn't so much as blink when his good friend, writer-director Quentin Tarantino, asked him to help bring Django's story to the big screen. In a conversation with The Root, Hudlin explains why he couldn't pass up the opportunity. The Root: How'd you get involved in Django Unchained? Reginald Hudlin: Quentin and I've been friends for a long time. We met, actually, through Pam Grier when they were making Jackie Brown. We got into the conversation, maybe 15 years ago, about movies about slavery. I hated most of them because for the most part they're about victimology. There's only one great movie about slavery, Spartacus. Until someone made a movie like that about the American experience, I wasn't interested. Quentin called me April of last year and reminded me of that conversation we'd had years ago: "Yeah, I've written a script. You planted the seed, this is the tree." TR: So the obviously controversial subject matter, the backdrop of slavery, didn't give you pause at all. RH: No, because first of all, part of our problem as Americans -- black and white -- is that we don't understand slavery. If you don't have an understanding of America's original sin, then we can't move forward as a people. Jewish people have a saying about the Holocaust, "Never forget," and it serves them very well as a culture. It reminds them that they have to stay sharp so that something like that will never happen again, and it reminds the world of the kind of evil it's capable of. We need to do the same thing. I've been trying to make a movie about the Middle Passage for 20 years and couldn't get it done. TR: What made Foxx such a perfect fit for the role? RH: Jamie's an incredible actor. He's from the South. And the fact that Jamie really is a cowboy. When we cast Jamie, we didn't just cast him; we cast his horse, Cheetah, too. You haven't seen a combination actor-and-horse casting since Roy Rogers and Trigger. That level of authenticity makes all the difference in a film like this. I mean, he did two takes riding bareback. It was crazy. His quick-draw skills? There's no sped-up camera tricks. It's all him. When you look at Jamie's work in the movie, between the emotional range of the character from slave to superhero and the physical challenges of the movie, there's never been a role for a black man as demanding as Django. TR: According to the Hollywood Reporter, the film makes use of the n-word more than 100 times. Was there a conversation with Tarantino about that? RH: We knew it was going to be an issue for folks. It was going to be one of many issues for people. But for me, it's kind of a tempest in a teapot. I've yet to talk to anyone who's seen the film who, after they saw the movie, that's what they talked about. They talked about the movie. They're caught up in much bigger issues. As much as the right wing tried to latch on to Jamie as racist because he talked about killing white people, I've seen hundreds of white people cheer as Django kills these slave owners, because they're bad. In that same way, when people see the world of the antebellum South and slavery, "nigger" is the least of their concerns. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

Prime Minister Julia Gillard announced on Thursday that her government was discussing with families of victims what financial help they need to attend commemorative events. Two bomb blasts triggered by al-Qaida-linked network Jemaah Islamiyah killed 202 people, including 88 Australians, on Oct. 12, 2002.
"A number of the family members of those who lost their lives will want to be in Bali at the commemorative events there and as a government we will be providing some assistance for family members," Gillard told reporters.
Last year the government was advising Australians to "reconsider the need to travel" to Indonesia, including Bali, to mark the ninth anniversary.
The government in downgraded its travel warning in May, although the threat of terrorist attack is still described as high.
Australian visitors to Bali are now advised to "exercise a high degree of caution."

I just created a network that has a geo node, a cam, a light and a render TOP.
I dive into the Geo node and bring in an FBX 6.1 file, comes in very nicely, properly orientated etc...
I'm trying to pan my camera so I can frame the object, which is a 3d building.
If I try to change the coordinates of the camera, I can see this happening clearly in the Cam node, but the light, the geo, and the render don't seem to be affected at all. Or it is the other way around, the cam node does not seem to be affected but the geo node does...
What is the recommended way of moving cameras and framing an object in Touch?

Thanks to the third coffee movement that swept across the island, we now get to enjoy a cup of quality brew at a growing number of non-specialty coffee places. First there was A Curious Teepee, then Drips, and recently The Muffinry on Telok Ayer Street has joined the list.
Helming the brew counter were two young and affable baristas, Chris and Jimmy.
Previously relied on roasts from Papa Palheta, they have since moved on to come up with their own customized blend 'Malabar', a blend of three beans (origins: Brazil, Sumatra and Guatemala) with the help of Coffee Culture. The result was a bittersweet with an intense body. It wasn't exactly strong as I could recall, but it was the complexity of flavours that made this cup very much enjoyable.
Despite the excellent coffees, due attention should be given to their fresh baked muffins. Alongside the regular flavours for the sweet-tooth, the café also offers a range of innovative savoury muffins ($2.4 ea) and 'boozy' ones ($3 ea). Currently there are over 20 flavours but only about six varieties are available daily.
Try their best-seller Green Eggs & Ham ($2.4), a savoury concoction of avocado (the green eggs), ham and spring onions. The portion might be smaller than the ones in your neighbourhood bakery, but it was well textured and packed with ingredients.
There are also other goodies baked perfect for the festive season.
The café is rather cramped with limited seats, definitely not a venue for your class gathering. Take-away might be a better option.

EDMONTON - Edmontonians should have more say in city budget decisions so they can feel they are getting value for their money, says mayoral candidate Karen Leibovici.
"Every where I go, I keep hearing that people don't believe they are getting value for the tax dollars," said Liebovici, in her first run at the mayor's chair.
That "uneasiness" is because people don't feel involved in spending decisions, not because of high spending, said Leibovici.
As the civic election campaign kicks into gear, city finances are emerging as a key issue and Leibovici says it's a "democratic deficit problem." Her rivals disagree.
Leibovici proposed a pilot project in a new process called "participatory budgeting" for the 2015 budget and also wants to look at devolving some local budget decisions to the ward level.
Rival Kerry Diotte rejected the idea of creating more bureaucracy to find out what taxpayers want. Candidates just have "to listen at the door — it's not a radical idea."
"People are furious they were not heard in the arena deal and upset about the debt," said Diotte, who has vowed to keep tax increases to the rate of inflation if elected as mayor.
But mayoral contender Don Iveson poured cold water on Diotte's approach, saying that keeping taxes too low can be false economy. It's the main reason the city has major pothole problems on the streets today, he said.
"In the 1990s, city council cut the road maintenance budget to freeze taxes. Now we are paying for it in road repairs," said Iveson. "That decision cost the city more in the long run. Roads don't last as long if not maintained."
Leibovici says she'd like to try a pilot project in participatory budgeting pioneered in Chicago where some budget decisions were made at the ward level.
For instance, each Edmonton councillor has $7,500 for parks in their ward and perhaps those "grassroots projects should be decided by the grassroots."
She would also ask the city's centre for public engagement to look at better ways to involve citizens.
"The one thing I hear is there is a disconnect between us (city council) and how we carry out our budget decisions," she said.
"I'm not suggesting council give up its authority — there are instances when we are elected to lead. But our decision should better informed by Edmontonians."
Diotte said the low turnout in civic election (about 32 per cent) is directly connected to the fact "that we don't listen" when it comes to making money decisions.
"If a strong majority wants it, that's what we should do," he said, noting that a large majority opposed the downtown arena deal.
In that vein, it was no surprise the province turned down $22 million for the so-called community rink to go along with Katz arena. It was really "the Oilers practice rink," with the community second priority, he added.
Iveson says the main issue in the campaign is not low taxes or the city's debt "which has been exploited to play on people fears." It is improving roads and basic infrastructure.
"The first duty of the city is to look after its assets. Because we didn't take care of infrastructure in the 1990s, people are furious and they should be.
"We're not going to make that mistake again."
The city has a $2-billion mortgage, and "the same way we bought our house, the payments are in the city budget," he said.

Thanks to optimized process steps and operation sequences the Orbit three-knife trimmer produces high quality, perfect bound products extremely cost effectively.
In order to achieve the high net output, the Orbit's process steps and operation sequences have been optimized, and this has resulted in a major decrease in unproductive time. The three-knife trimmer's full automation make's it possible to set-up in a minimum of three minutes and to changeover without tools. Even fine corrections can be done on the run without interrupting production.
SmartPress for Consistent Product QualityFor optimum trim quality, Muller Martini has developed the SmartPress technology which guarantees a gentle, controlled press process. The compact book pressing ensures, even with bulky products, that all air between the sheets can escape completely so that the product can be perfectly trimmed. The SmartPress technology works adaptively. This means: The pressing adapts automatically to fluctuations in product thickness while the machine is running and ensures a consistent book quality.
The optimized swing cut ensures a perfectly trimmed book spine.
Optimized Swing CutThe Orbit three-knife trimmer's swing cut principle has also been further optimized. The drives for the transportation, pressing and cutting units have been decoupled. This way an ideal trimming speed is guaranteed irrespective of the cycle time of the machine. At the same time the pull movement of the knife during trimming was increased so that the book spine retains its perfect form.
The Orbit three-knife trimmer is very intuitive to operate. The clearly arranged operating concept makes it possible to prepare the subsequent order while the current production is running. It can also be connected via JDF/JMF to the digital workflow.

Hawknc wrote:Thankfully there is no shortage of excellent cafes and coffee shops in Melbourne; I was actually surprised how much trouble I had finding a decent coffee in Sydney when I went there, which I guess is a sign of being spoiled for choice here. Probably the best I've tried is actually an hour away in Geelong, a place hidden away in a side street called Coffee Cartel. They do some amazing single-origin coffees and roast their own beans locally.
Hawknc wrote:I'm still learning how to make my own espresso coffee. Sometimes it turns out amazing, other times it's extremely average. Before I started I wasn't aware how sensitive the taste of coffee was to minor changes to temperature and time, but I certainly have a new appreciation for good baristas. Not up to roasting or grinding my own blends yet, but maybe in time.
Espresso is certainly very tricky. The italians have it down to a science, but it's a very strict science. They've figure out how to make consistently good espresso by making sure that every step of the process is consistent. From the coffee, which is a similar blend, roasted a similar way everywhere to the grinders, machines and even cups. Even small changes though can cause problems. For example, when a cafe is busy they can make one great espresso after another, but when the machines sit idle most of them will end up a lot hotter or cooler then they're supposed to be (they're designed to hold a certain temperature when in constant use) and the first shot or two will be off.

Nath wrote:At work, we have a commercial grinder and La San Marco espresso machine (yay gift grants). They ask us not to play with the machine settings, so the grind is often suboptimal, but I usually end up with a drinkable espresso or latte. By drinkable, I mean better than the large chains, but not great compared to decent local places.
TrlstanC wrote:ooh, that's a nice set up to have at work. And yeah, it's not too hard to make something better then the large chains if you're willing to put in a little time. Most of the big chains now have fully automatic machines, they just push a button and espresso (or something like it depending on the last time the machine's been adjusted) comes out. If I had to make espresso without changing the grind I'd probably end up with a little digital scale and measuring cup (depending on how many weird looks I was willing to get) so I could adjust the dose consistently - higher dose for a slower thicker shot, and lower for a faster lighter shot. I find it's very difficult to get consistent shots if I'm just dosing by eye/volume, maybe someone working as a barista all day would have better luck, but even small changes in dose (+/- 5-10%) can have a big effect on taste.
Nath wrote:Well, I usually try to fill the basket exactly to the rim, and level it off with my index finger. For a given grind, this seems like a consistent way to dose. The two other variables I can control are the tamp and the duration of extraction. I usually give it a good, strong tamp (since otherwise water goes through too quickly), and run water through till the crema starts to look too light.

High performance liquid cooling has finally arrived in an easy to use, all-in-one package. NZXT releases the Kraken, the first premium all-in-one water cooler series for PC enthusiasts and gamers alike. The Kraken X40 and Kraken X60 are high end, all-in-one 140 mm and 280 mm liquid-cooling solutions where ease of use meets unmatched performance. Applying its forward-thinking design philosophy to the water-cooling market, NZXT raises the bar with a userfriendly solution that brings unrivaled liquid-cooling performance to your fingertips. With 36% more surface area than standard 120 mm/240 mm radiators and fully interactive fan control, NZXT's Kraken series is nothing short of a water-cooling behemoth. NZXT brings its innovative HUE controlled lighting system to the Kraken, setting a new standard for design and performance. Featuring premium black sleeved cables and extended 16-inch tubing for large tower support, the Kraken brings high performance cooling with an uncompromised look that any enthusiast will be dying to show off. At its core, the Kraken features a state-of-the-art pump attached to an all copper base that is compatible with all of the current offerings from Intel and AMD. Included with the 140 mm Kraken X40 is one NZXT FX-140 PWM fan, with the ability to install an additional 140 mm fan for a push-pull configuration, offering unmatched cooling performance. The 280 mm Kraken X60 features two NZXT FX-140 PWM fans, with the ability to install an additional two fans for a push-pull configuration as well. Additionally, the Kraken X60 utilizes a SATA power connector for easy installation and effortless cable management. Both Krakens are aggressively priced at $99 and $139 for the X40 and X60, respectively, and backed by a 2 year warranty. With the Kraken, NZXT set out to unleash the best closed loop water cooler on the market, and believes its customers should not settle for anything less.
Performance better be damn good for those prices, I also think they could of gotten a few more screws on the block
When there's a monopoly of closed loop watercooling solutions, everything is the same sh*t *Nothing to do here*
so its official every company has a closed loop water cooling system and they are all within 1-2c.... pick your flavor
Really another Closed loop water cooling product! Seriously! If they want to impress me they need to improve the pump, Make larger tubing, and have a thicker rad. Once I see temps actually beat high end air cooling then I will be impressed. Until then I will stick with real water cooling.
More companies keep dumping their versions of this stuff onto the market but none of them advance performance forward. Really interested to see how the H60 revamp does since it looks like they finally tried to make performance improvements.
It technically isn't a monopoly. It's more a duopoly as Cool-It and Asetek are the only real players in this space. And speaking of Asetek; damn, they weren't kidding when they said their partners would be announcing their new Gen-4 AIO coolers "shortly." This was just less than 12 hours later.
I don't like this whole re branding thing as in the end they are all the same for more money, but i guess its good as you could find the original ones e.g Asetek cheaper (well at least that's in my case cause i know a shop that has the 570LC and 570LX cheaper than the only other way i could get them "online")
That's a clever acronym. Here you go friend, Swiftech makes the Helix series of fans, they are meant to supplement the Gentle Typhoon and the fan blades look identical. It uses a modified sleeve bearing known as the Z-Bearing. There are three kinds, 120mm, 140mm, and 120mm PWM. http://www.swiftech.com/accessories-2.aspx
i was kinda hoping nzxt would give us a better watercooling kit with thicker radiators or something with a vapor chamber
Asetek pretty much rule the market and afaik actually sueing Cool-it systems for using their patent so...

Israeli Citizen Fights for Palestinian Citizenship
- Dettagli
- Categoria: Opposizione israeliana
- Pubblicato Domenica, 17 Giugno 2012 20:47
- Scritto da Sarah Snobar - IMEMC & agencies
IMEMC, May 31, 2012
An Israeli citizen has been imprisoned for trying to drop his Israeli citizenship and replace it with Palestinian citizenship. He said that he does not recognize Israeli courts and the Israeli government as they represent an illegal occupation.
23-year-old Andrew Pshenichnikov has been in an Israeli prison for a week. He is being detained for entering a West Bank zone other than "Zone C" which is the only zone Israelis are allowed into.
He moved to Dheisheh Refugee camp near Bethlehem which is in "Zone A" and therefore his actions are considered "against Israeli laws".
Pshenichnikov has announced that he will not accept any judgment the court makes as he does not recognize the Israeli government as a legitimate authority as it is a government of occupation. Therefore, he does not recognize its judiciary.
The People's Record, a group that identifies itself as "[a]n ongoing chronicle of communities of resistance around the world" reported that Andrew said he supports the Palestinian resistance against the illegal Israeli occupation, and that he has "declared ideological closeness to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine".

Survey of Energy Resources 2007
Wood Fuels
From the 2004 Survey of Energy Resources it is evident that wood fuels make up about 50% (24 EJ) of the IEA estimate of 48 EJ classified as combustible renewables and waste (IEA, 2006). As was noted in the Wood chapter of the 2004 Survey, there are two very different populations using wood fuels. One, typically an OECD member country, uses highly-efficient combustion technology under tight regulations on emissions. The other (representing by far the majority - estimated at three billion people) uses small-scale appliances (three-stone fires or cooking stoves) that are both inefficient and highly polluting. The two populations are also different with respect to the estimation of their energy consumption; the former increasingly uses wood fuels that are traded commercially, while the latter still operates in an informal sector for which only estimates can be made.
Statistics on wood fuel use are poor in both developed and developing countries because of insufficient institutional awareness, resulting in different approaches to making estimates. There are many different aspects of government jurisdiction involved in the wood fuel sector. Moreover, the lack of reliable statistics exacerbates the problems of supply management and the mitigation of negative impacts from the use of wood fuels. For example, forestry departments are concerned with the total wood flow out of forests; energy department concerns are with estimates of household, commercial and industrial energy requirements, while environmental regulators may be concerned with resource depletion (soil, water and biodiversity) and emissions impacts, and by no means last, the health sector may be following the effects of household emissions on chronic diseases.
One of the most critical of these issues is that of indoor air pollution, which featured in a special session addressing household energy and health at the 14th meeting of the Commission for Sustainable Development (CSD-14). The World Health Organization (WHO) simultaneously released Fuel for Life: household energy and health (Rehfuess, 2006) in which the call for both improved stoves and the substitution of modern fuels such as LPG is made.
In the 2004 update of the UN Food and Agricultural Organization's (FAO) interactive Wood Energy Statistics (i-WESTAT) (Drigo and Trossero, 2005), there is a detailed analysis of the state of different statistical sources of wood fuels. With the advent of new technologies based on geographic information systems (GIS) and their integration with survey activities, the FAO has developed the Wood Fuel Integrated Supply/Demand Overview Mapping (WISDOM) methodology. WISDOM has demonstrated that accurate, and indeed exhaustive, wood energy statistics can be obtained at several levels, ranging from regions to local forests (Masera, Ghilardi, et al., 2006). The early applications of WISDOM are not yet sufficient to revise the information base, so the present analysis of wood fuel will continue to rely on the FAOSTAT database (FAO, 2006).
The current wood energy situation.
Wood Fuel is classed into three main commodities: fuelwood, charcoal and black liquor. Black liquor is the spent pulping chemicals and the lignin component of wood after chemical pulping. It is fired in a chemical recovery boiler and process steam and electricity are also produced. Fuelwood and charcoal are the traditional wood forest products, and even today almost half of all of the forest harvest is for energy, with the remainder for industrial use (lumber, veneer and paper). Some of this is indirect, in that timber that is harvested may first be converted into board and the residues, such as bark, trim ends, and sawdust, then transferred from the wood industry into the energy sector, as is the case with black liquor. As well as this secondary generation of wood energy, there is a tertiary source in the form of post-consumer residues that arise from the manufacture, use or disposal of wood products. This source often ends up in the municipal waste stream and in many OECD countries it is separated from the stream, either for recycling or for use in energy products.
Charcoal is produced by the thermal conversion of wood (and other biomass). This transformation has losses in the form of combustible gas and condensable materials (wood tar), which are not always recovered for either material applications or energy purposes. The energy efficiency of charcoal production ranges from 25% in Africa (using mainly artisanal methods) to 48% in Brazil which uses industrial kilns with extensive energy and materials recovery. The FAOSTAT forestry database uses a single conversion of 6 m3 roundwood solid volume equivalents for one tonne of charcoal, corresponding to nearly 50% efficiency.
The values for 2005 are comparable to those of the 2004 SER. Differences are most likely due to the general improvement in estimates at the country level, as the FAO forestry group improves the overall methodology. Given the relative imprecision of the estimates it is not possible to see trends that will have a major impact on the values of previous years.
