Parts of this chapter were presented at the annual meeting of the Association for Asian Studies in Hawaii, April 1996, as part of a panel entitled "Past Forgetting: War and Revolution in Vietnamese Memory." Some of the ideas formulated here are included in my dissertation, "The Artist and the State: The Politics of Painting and National Identity in Hanoi, Vietnam, 1925–1995" (Ph.D. diss., Cornell University, 1997). Research was conducted between January 1993 and August 1994 and was supported by the Social Science Research Council Southeast Asia Program, through grants from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, The Ford Foundation, and Fulbright-Hays. I wish to thank these institutions and the artists, art historians, and friends in Hanoi, too numerous to list, who made my research possible. I also thank Hjorleifur Jonsson, Neil Jamieson, and Hue-Tam Ho Tai for comments on earlier drafts of this chapter.

21. There is some discrepancy in the exact dates of the banning of coffee-houses among the people I spoke to during my field research. Nguyen Van Lam himself cites a ten-year period, but others have said that was an exaggeration on his part; the coffeehouses, according to them, were closed for only a few years in the early 1960s.

30. For the past several years, Chinese artists have formed a movement in reaction to official art commonly called "cynical realism," or "Maopop." The movement is aimed at poking fun at utopian images of Communist Party leaders and commenting on the working class's lack of education.

New magnetic coating technology enhances the durability, dimensional stability, runnability, converting and finishing capabilities to the MagneCote product line.
"This new formulation of the proprietary magnetic technology makes MagneCote an even better choice for anyone interested in producing custom magnets," says Paul Charapata, CEO of Nekoosa Coated Products. "The product finishes very nicely; it looks clean and you get crisp, clean edges when die cutting or guillotine trimming. And since Magnecote is premagnetized, you can sell custom magnets right from the delivery tray with no post-processing by using costly magnetizers."

The endorsement battle in the 9th District U.S. House race isn't over, even with the Republican runoff just two days away.
Among the decisions Hall County voters have left to make Tuesday is to pick a new arbiter for some of their most personal business.
A former Hall County sheriff is trying to return to public service and an eight-year incumbent is trying to preserve his job as chairman of the Hall County Board of Commissioners.
As Tuesday's primary runoff draws closer, more than 3,000 voters already have made their choice.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said he doesn't care what Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's tax returns look like.
U.S. House candidates Doug Collins and Martha Zoller exchanged ideas on key issues and debated who was the true "establishment" candidate during a televised forum Thursday night.
Former Arkansas Gov. and Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee will travel to Gainesville today, joining Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal in an effort to raise money for their party's presidential nominee.
The two men seeking to succeed Hall County Sheriff Steve Cronic have some 58 combined years of experience in law enforcement.
A certified public accountant and a developer are making their final pitches this week to voters as they campaign for Hall County tax commissioner.
Two siblings involved in a dispute over their mother's estate have filed a complaint with the state Bar of Georgia against Brook Davidson, the attorney who represented their mother.
The tension at the South Hall Republican Club on Tuesday night was slightly manufactured. As the candidates still left in the running for the Republican nomination in five local races made their final pitches to club members one week before the election, they talked a lot about their opponents. Gerald Couch, a candidate for Hall County sheriff, said he would "raise the bar" and implement a physical fitness program for sheriff's deputies. "We need to ...
Eugene Moon, who fell short of a successful challenge against incumbent Hall County Commissioner Billy Powell in the July 31 Republican primary, is challenging the results in court.
In a Republican runoff, there are always several similarities. The race to be the party's nominee in Georgia's 9th U.S. House district is no different. Both Doug Collins and Martha Zoller have similar views on the farm bill: They won't support it in its current form. Both candidates list cutting federal spending as their No. 1 priority if elected. Both say they'll deal with what they say is overregulation if elected. And both want to ...
Early voting for the Aug. 21 primary runoff will begin today. Georgia Secretary of State Brian Kemp did not certify the election results until late Tuesday, which put off the creation of ballots for the runoff an extra day. Early voting is scheduled to run through Aug. 17. Voters can cast ballots from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the Hall County Elections Office, 2875 Browns Bridge Road. Absentee ballots are available starting Friday through ...

Birmingham AIDS Outreach is a professional agency with a full-time staff providing client services and prevention education programs in the greater Birmingham and surrounding areas. From January until June 2010 we have provided the following:
Don't Wait - DONATEAll of the services provided at BAO are free of charge and would not be possible without gifts from supporters like you. Birmingham AIDS Outreach is more than an agency offering services; it is a place for our HIV positive neighbors to gather, grow, share events in their lives, and feel dignified. Every life deserves hope. With your continued support we will be here until there is a cure. Please consider making a year-end, tax deductible gift to Birmingham AIDS Outreach so that we may continue to provide life-enhancing services to HIV positive individuals in our community. Thank you for supporting BAO and those we serve. |

Birmingham AIDS Outreach is the first AIDS Service Organization (ASO) in Alabama to release a smartphone app focusing on AIDS education. The free "BAO" app debuted May 1 and is available on the iTunes store as well as the Android platform. The app was recently featured on both al.com and thebody.com (a national HIV education website and reporting organization). Education Director Josh Bruce designed the app to help BAO use social media to stay up-to-date on the technology ... and stay even better connected to the community. The primary goal of the BAO app is to encourage regular HIV Testing. One of the functions is a statewide ASO locator that maps out centers offering free testing and condoms. The app also offers a handy reference guide for HIV/AIDS terms as well as updates on BAO events. Other functions of the app include a button for BINGO reservations, a glossary of HIV terms, a donation button, and a facebook button. Future plans for this summer include an interactive function with the 21st Annual AIDS Walk (scheduled for Sunday 16 September) and a calendar option to encompass testing reminders.
Every 10 minutes, someone in the United States is infected with HIV. A preventive vaccine against HIV offers the best long-term hope to end this worldwide epidemic. Finding a safe and effective HIV vaccine that will protect people is a huge task.
We cannot do it without your help.
If you're interested in participating in or learning more about the HIV Vaccine Trials that are currently underway, please visit: http://www.hopetakesaction.org/
Anne Bet is a bright star at both Birmingham AIDS Outreach and the 1917 Clinic at UAB. Several months ago Anne decided that she wanted to give back to the community and volunteer with BAO. During our initial meeting with Anne, she informed us that she was going to celebrate her upcoming birthday by hosting a fundraiser for Birmingham AIDS Outreach! Anne rented Sloss Furnace, ordered catering and an amazing "Swing Band", and hosted one of the best Swing Dance Parties that the Magic City has seen! The event was a wonderful fundraiser for Birmingham AIDS Outreach, where guests danced under the moon and stars at Sloss Furnace. Anne has been volunteering since then, including working at Arty Party and helping with this year's Magic City AIDS Walk.
HIV research is where Anne's heart lies. She is currently working on her graduate degree, focusing on HIV research with the 1917 Clinic at UAB. Anne is also an amazing artist and has participated in several national conferences showing both her HIV research as well as her artwork about the virus
The iCare project, is a new endeavor launched by Birmingham AIDS Outreach. This exciting project serves to spotlight individuals who have supported BAO in many different ways including volunteering, attending community events, and attending fundraisers.
We want to hear your story! Tell us about your experiences being involved with BAO and why you share our mission, to enhance the lives of individuals who are living with HIV and AIDS. If you are interested in participating in the iCare project, please contact Jamie Whitehurst (email@example.com).

One of the key design elements in the baby's nursery was an indoor awning hanging over her crib. Usually, awnings are over windows, but not today!
Here's the tutorial!
1/2" plywood
10-ft 1x4 pine board
fabric lining- 2 1/2 – 3 yards
drill and drill bits, screwdriver and screws, pencil, measuring tape, staple gun/stapler, L-brackets
2 1/2 yds fabric,or more
sewing machine (serger optional- I finished all my edges)
Let's Begin!
Figure out what dimensions you want your awning! I wanted mine to extend halfway over the crib, and a good 18" down the wall. Connect those lines to make your hypotenuse.
You will be cutting off the top point and the front point to make room for the 1x4.
It is a good idea to first make a cardboard mock-up, and then use it as a template. Keep the template for later.
Using a jig saw, cut out your plywood pieces. Ok, I let my husband do it, but you can too!
While you are in the cutting mood, cut your 1x4 into two lengths, each 58" long.
You will want to cover all these cut wood pieces with lining fabric and your staple gun/stapler. The side plywood pieces require some creative wrapping, but it isn't very difficult. (**you'll see I have three wood pieces; only two are necessary and we ended up taking the third one out later, so just ignore it.)
When all your pieces are wrapped, it is a good idea to pre-drill your holes where your screws go so the fabric doesn't get all twisted or go crazy. We cut slits in the fabric with an x-acto knife too, just to be on the safe side. We opted to do two screws per wood board.
Then, screw the pieces together! Ignore that back piece- it was nice keeping the frame sturdy while working with it, but we didn't want to see it when it was hung on the wall, so we removed it
When the frame is put together, cover that big gaping hole with lining. Pull the lining nice and taut so the patterned fabric will lay nice and flat against it.
It looked so awesome at this point, I was squealing. I knew it would be perfect for the nursery!
Ok, you'll have three pieces to cut from your fabric. First, the big rectangle- the super easy part. Measure the width of your awning and add 1" for seam allowances. Then, measure the height, or in this case the angled side, and add the top width and the scallop drop, plus 1". I wanted the scallops to hang 5", so I added 6" to the height and top measurement. You'll have a big rectangle when you are done.
Next, pull out that cardboard template you used to cut the wood pieces. Put it on your fabric to trace out your two side pieces. Add 1/2" seam allowance on all sides, and add that 6" scallop length to the bottom.
I did a trial run where I just basted the side pieces to the rectangle starting at the bottom (just pin well when the rectangle has to turn around the side angles,and make small clips in the fabric if you have to and you'll be fine), and it fit like a glove. PERFECTLY. Awesome!! Then I sewed the pieces all together.
From the remaining fabric, cut long pieces that are longer than your scallop (I cut 8") and the same width as your three main awning pieces. I pieced my strips together to get the right measurement.
On this long strip, trace your scallops. I did lots of math and figured my scallops at 5" wide apiece.
Next, line up your scallop strip right sides together along the bottom of the awning fabric.
I matched up my seams to make them less noticeable, but it was bulky. I worked with it and you can't even tell from looking at it.
Sew along the scallop lines you traced. To get a nice scallop, stop right before you get to the inside point of your scallop, put your needle down and your presser foot up, and pivot your fabric.
Stitch ONE stitch, and stop and pivot again. Continue sewing along your drawn line.
After you have sewn along each scallop, trim closely to each scallop. Use pinking shears if you have them, or just have fun cutting all those v's! It will be worth it when you turn it inside out. When you get to the inside points, cut a small "Y", careful not to cut into your stitching.
Turn inside out and iron.
Fit the fabric over your awning frame again, and staple the fabric to the frame along the top and back, wherever it won't be seen easily.
Hang with some L-brackets securely on the wall (or above a window), and you're done!
I hope someone out there uses this and makes an awesome awning too! I love it; it is probably the best thing I've made in a long time.
I'm sharing this with some of my friends, at

Front and center in the announcement is a new Power Systems lineup with the Power7+ microprocessor, which promises performance bumps of 30 percent to 40 percent on app workloads compared with previous versions. IBM said it invested $1.4 billion in R&D around the product, which includes new hardware and software innovations in the Power 770, Power 780 and Power 795 models.
The Power7+ offers an expanded 2.5x L3 cache memory, better security with faster file encryption for the IBM AIX operating system, and memory compression that doesn't increase the energy usage over previous Power7 chips. The top-of-the-line Power 795, for example, lets enterprises run business analytics quickly by tapping up to 16 terabytes of memory with new 64-GB DIMMs.
Crucial Capabilities
We asked Charles King, principal analyst at Pund-IT, to analyze the new products. He told us IBM is aiming to help enterprise customers successfully contend with and take full advantage of three critical IT trends: cloud computing, analytics and security.
"At one level, cloud is simply a broader, cross-data center implementation of the IT asset pooling, distribution and management functions that have been common in enterprise-class systems for many years," King said. "That said, CIOs recognize how cloud can help improve IT efficiency and agility. But they also believe cloud can drive innovative collaboration and customer engagements."
King also noted that analytics and business intelligence are crucial to organizations' success, but the continually growing volume and complexity of business data means that companies need new ways to manage and use that information. Data that is not fully leveraged translates directly into lost revenues and opportunities, so many managers consider analytics solutions essential to improving and increasing data availability, access and value.

collage and photomontage - virtual photography made realby Photo Exhibition on 07 Nov 2013 permalink
Photo retouching was tedious and laborious in the darkroom. Today digital photo manipulation opens new vistas to the point where a photograph is no longer evidence in court. Collage (from the French colle = glue) and montage (from the French monter = to mount) are genres beyond scrapbooking. Morphing is the new technique where the computer can extrapolate any number of transitions between two disparate images. Image recognition has gone in leaps and bounds. For example facebook automatically detects a person's face on uploaded photos and invites you to tag your friends as you go. Surveillance cameras in security systems can be programmed to detect a missing painting on the wall despite visitors walking past in the art gallery and light conditions changing from day to night hours. Deep etching is widely used in catalogues to make an item for sale standout on a pure white background. If you feel you have some surrealist inspiration and want to follow in the steps of Salvador Dali what can digital photo manipulation can offer you? The sky literally is the limit! Some artist take landscape shots with the express purpose of changing the lighting and the colour balance to bring a dramatic effect to an otherwise mundane shot. Others blend together elements from different cultural landmarks to create a challenging scenery where the Statue of Liberty could be seen in the distance at the edge of a lake with snow peaked mountains in the distance and a Chinese man sitting in a sampan in the foreground. The artistic effect of course is the dissonance between those elements which do not belong to each other. The pseudo reality of the photographic quality of the image is betrayed by the obvious mismatch of the elements present in the image. For someone who hasn't travelled, is un-educated or is a child the image would not trigger any concern. Unfortunately this type of endeavour has not been limited to art. Some graphic artists with an axe to grind have defamed politicians by putting their public face on a rather crude and rude setting - the backlash of fame I suppose. Satirical cartoons have long been the weapon of choice of political descent - switching over to cleverly retouched photographs is still something most of us would feel uncomfortable with. Not so much because it can tactfully make the point but because suddenly we discover that we cannot even trust a photograph anymore. |

This is the "Ultimate Driving Machine".
by Happy Old Guy on 02/13/2007.
Trim: 1989 Porsche 911 Targa, Owned 4 years.
I love the acceleration, top end speed, handling and braking. Although the coupe is more practical, my wife and I like the open cockpit of the Targa for the air and sun. It is safe and comfortable for our summer excursions but easy enough to drive every day.
The HVAC is problematic. At least the heater and defroster work well. Air conditioner, not so much. Routine upkeep is expensive. This is not a car for an amateur. Take a driving course (PCA for example). The rear engine drive and weight ditribution make it difficult to transition from front wheel drive cars with the weight in the front.
Overall review:
This is my final car in the series. My first was a 1980 Targa, then a 1985 Targa and now my dream car a 1989 Targa. This has everything the first 2 didn't have and the heater even works! I have tried the newer models but there is something about this car that sets it apart from the rest. This is without a doubt the finest car I have ever owned.

Porsche. It's true. There is no substitute.
by Mike in J'ville on 01/31/2005.
Trim: 1989 Porsche 911 Carrera 4 coupe, Owned 2 years.
This vehicle sticks to the road. I have no problem maintaining speeds of 140-160 even while passing on a highway veer. 140 in this thing actually feels moderate, about like 80 does in my wife's honda. It's not a drag car by any means, but if you want a car that's designed particularly to handle at and maintain high speeds, then rear engine, all wheel drive, 4 WHL Ind. Susp, 4 WHL discs, and a pop up rear fin are for you. This car handles VERY well. It is handbuilt, so even older ones are tight. Hence, not the shakes and rattles you get from cheaper, mass produced american cars. Chics dig it.
0-60 acceleration is not super impressive. It's like a Mustang GT with a 1500 rpm longer power band, but if 0-60 is your cup of tea, then don't buy a porsche. Porsches are for guys who want fast cars. Speeds between 0 and 60 are not fast. They're relatively slow, actually. Porsches are for driving enthusiasts who want a well rounded, bullet proof, road course car, so they're not for guys who think driver's skill comes from red lights and calf strength. Hey man, my grandmother can drive a car down a straight line. She's not impressive to me, but the mustang guys love her. Upkeep is pricy, and unless you have a lift and know porsches well, don't plan on doing the upkeep yourself.
Overall review:
Overall, I love my car. It is dependable, very fast, and very safe because you can maintain control at very high speeds, meaning straight roads are boring in a porsche and the joy of driving it is availed by the gas pedal, the steering wheel, and the ability to drive. To have a car that will do 170 is saying a little. To have one that will manuever without sliding at 170 is why people gladly pay more.

Plot : A horse, yes you hear it right a horse well more like a shifter, her name is Alpha Derxim, is at a greek god rodeo, this horse is the daughter of Kronos the god of time, she is the FASTEST horse alive along with the most deadly mare, she is the queen of the wild, she is caught and taken to a rodeo, where the greek gods try to tame her, Poseidon even fails to do so, Hades the god of the underworld comes along and tries to tame her, but failing, but to many surpise she makes sure Hades is ok, Hades takes her to the underworld and they go through ton's of advantures, Hades makes her his war/Lead chariot and racing horse. Anyone want to rp Hades ??
NO THIS NOT A LOVE THREAD MORE BONDING and adventure .
I will be rping the mare
Name : Alpha
Race ; She is the queen of horses, she has a human form. Shadow mare (Unefected by sunlight)
History : Alpha is the queen of all horses, horses love and respect her the foals love her more then most things. Alpha is the best horse for racing because she can outrun anything that comes her way, she is also extremly strong mare and she controls alot of thing's to do with the wild. Alpha was born in 1689, she is hates her father Kronos the tian that is locked away in the pit's of hell. Alpha is well known throughout the world, for racing she is number 12 and her name is Lightningfree, she is never tamed so she never does chariot or war before. She is also queen of all herds.
Her theme song, take me away Globus
IC Proluge - alpha was only known as the queen of the wild and horses, she is the daughter of the evil titan Kronos, she is said to be like Kronos but it takes a real person to see just what she is made out of, she is a warrior said to be alive for too long, she is said to be immortal but said to be sweet toward foals.
Alpha had been grazing in a meadow, she had a lot of history behind her, she was said to be control of horses and the wild, well today Zeus and Apollo and Ares where going out to hunt the poor black mare . They attacked her brutally easily getting her downs dn knocking her out . Zeus called in the gods for a rodeo to tame the queen of the wild. Alpha shrieked and struggled madly in horse form flapping her massive black wings but was forced to Olympus.
The gods cheered, in the rodeo, Zeus, Poseidon and Apollo had caught the queen of the wild, a lovely mare named Alpha, well she was given that name. Apollo had given her that name, Alpha was a strong willed mare that refused to give in to anyone who dared to ride her. Alpha was dragged in by Apollo to the rodeo, she strikes Apollo hard in the face shattering his cheek and the god yelled in pain stumbling back. Zeus grabbed the haulter and yanked Alpha into the loading pen, Poseidon was the first to god being the god of water and horses, it was asure win right ? WRONG. The mare in less then a minute had thrown the god off her back nearly trampling over him as well. The gods soon got mad with her and finally there was no god that could ride this mare, she really was the wildest of the wild. The massive horse was tied to a post and not given food or water, the horse put her forhead on the pole and snorted darkly, her wings where tied down and so where her hooves, she was whipped and lashed hard, her beauiful scarlet red eyes where dim and angry, she was not giving in , she would die before she ever gave in.
Alpha slowly raised her head seeing a male approch her, he was rather odd looking, he gave off a smell of fear but the horse gave no sign of fear. The mare snorted darkly stomped a chained oof glaring at the male, the mare rears up slightly but looked at the male in darkness of her heart, she felt she :could trust him, not fully but she could indeed trust him. The mare snorted and tries out her wings but they where still tied down harshly, her body hurt because of the chains and whips that had lashed at her. She gave him no angry look, she was clam now, well becase she didn't want to get hurt anymore, she was not allowing Hades to ride her though, it would take a long time for trust to build, but she did like carrots and apples.
Zeus and the other gods where talking
"We found her in a meadow with other horses. But she is more problem then any of them" Zeus said darkly.

My boyfriend and I have been talking about getting engaged for a while now and have decided on the year and the month we would both like to be married. His family and every one of our friends are all excited and completely behind us. We're having a problem convincing my mom engagement is a good idea. I'm applying to vet school this fall, and vet school is a four year program. However, he's graduated and has a full time job already and financially we'll be able to survive. She doesn't want me to get married until I'm through with vet school, but I don't want to wait another five years. I've tried talking to her one on one about getting engaged and she doesn't seem to want to listen to my point of view. What she thinks is what goes and I'm having a hard time getting around that. My dad is a lot more realistic, but I haven't been able to sit down and discuss things with him yet because our work schedules conflict. I've talked to him about it in passing and he said that both he and my mom have some concerns but that he would sit down and talk to me about it. My mom is having a hard time adjusting to me growing up and being on my own, and lately she's been trying to be even more controlling since I'm home from school for the summer working at my internship. I really need any advice or tips on how best to approach this, or ways/points I should bring up when talking to her to get her to see my side of the argument.
Have you listened to your mom's concerns about you getting engaged? It sounds great that your dad is willing to sit down and talk to you about his concerns. Did you try to have that same situation with your mom? In my experience, if you can listen to their concerns and then show them why/how you can overcome that obstacle, or alleviate their concerns in some way, then they will be more likely to come around to your way of thinking.
Thank you so much for the advice. When I talked with my mom I did try to address some of her concerns, but she never really let the conversation get to the point where she was willing to accept the engagement was close enough to discuss the concerns she had. I actually have talked to my dad about his concerns, and the impression I got from him was that both he and my mom are worried Greg and I are too young to get engaged and get married. I know they're just worried that I'm making the right decision, but I don't know how to convince them I know he's the one. If we have to wait then we have to wait and I'm okay with that, because the end result is still the same; however I would rather not have to wait three years to get engaged like my parents want me to. I've got several tough years of school ahead of me, and having Greg there helps me deal with the stress because I know at the end of the day I can always come home and get a hug and he'll tell me everything will be alright. Without us being married he's at least an hour away from school, and moving in together before we're married isn't an option unless I end up going to vet school out of state. Did anyone else have a problem convincing their parents they weren't too young (keep in mind I'm 21 and he's 24)? And if so, how did you change their minds?

Your continuous donations keep RPGWatch running!
Drox Operative - Going Forward
February 11th, 2013, 15:49
Steven Peeler blogs about working on an expansion for Drox Operative:
It seems I haven't blogged in ages.More information.
First off, we have Drox Operative on Steam's Greenlight. If you haven't already, go vote for Drox Operative on Greenlight so we can get the game on Steam. Please tell all of your friends, family, and anyone else that will listen to do so also.
This is still pretty much unofficial, but we are working on an expansion. Unofficial in this case just means that we could change our minds and work on something else instead. At this point in time there aren't any guaranteed new features or content, but it will most likely contain at least a new race, new monsters, new components, and new quests. We do have a bunch of cool features that we think are going to make the expansion a must buy for any Drox fans. We will start to talk about the specifics once things are implemented and working.
One of the nice parts about working on an expansion is that we will be actively working on Drox. This means that we'll continue to have fairly regular patches and a lot of the smaller changes that were originally meant for the expansion will likely show up in the main game also.
As always, comments are welcome.

The Second Annual Siesta Key Crystal Classic wrapped up on Sunday, Nov. 13, but the sand sculptures were left out all of Monday.
This morning however, the sculptures were demolished.
"By noon-time Tuesday, it will look like nothing ever happened on the Beach," Bob Parkinson, co-chair of the Siesta Key Crystal Classic said. "When people see that, and see the first bulldozer hit the first statue, the general reaction is, 'Ohhhh ... '"
Did you miss your chance to see the sculptures last weekend? Watch the video slideshow below to view some of the sculptures featured in the event.

Steve,You want to download the Sakila database for MySQL. Install and download details are available at:http://dev.mysql.com/doc/sakila/en/sakila.htmlI assume you have already installed MySQL. If not, you can download the community edition from:http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/Linda
Steve,You can do this from within the Toad client, although at some point you will need to know what the password actually is. If you didn't set anything, it may still have a blank root password.If you need to reset the root password, follow the instructions in the manual at:http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/resetting-permissions.htmlYou can open the Sakila SQL files in the Toad Editor and press F5 to run the entire script in one go. Make sure you run the schema script first, then the data script.Linda
Dummy questions: how do you open the command line from the toad client?There's an editor...but it can't seem to take any commands...I tried to open a connection...it requires user name and password... wrote somethin' there... nothing is working...so...anyone can tell me step by step how this actually works?
I'm going under the assumption that you have the database already in hand from Linda's source.You don't need to open any MySQL command line. The purpose of having Toad is to replace the command line with a more simple GUI tool.1. You need to first create a connection from Toad to MySQL. Click on the Create new connection button in the Connection Manager. You need to enter "host", "username", and "password". You can leave everything else alone. (the "host" is the machine running the MySQL server. If this is your local machine, then leave it as "localhost"). The click connect. This will establish a connection to MySQL server2. Once the step 1 is done, Click on the Open File button and open your SQL file. I'm giong under the assumption that you have some filename.sql. From the sound of thing, you have one for the schema (which is basically the structure of the database), and second file for the data. Open the schema file first.3. This should open an editor with bunch of SQL commands. You need to run all the commands. You can run them all at once by pressing the F5 key.4. Once step 3 is done, repeat step 2 and 3 with the data file.At this point you should have the database with data loaded.Now if you want to run some SQL commands, you first want to open an Editor. Click on the button that says "Edit SQL". This will open a new window. Enter any commands in the editor. You can run the command by pressing the F5 or F9.

(10) Xavier vs. (15) Lehigh Preview
Posted By Yannis Koutroupis On March 17, 2012 @ 7:46 am In All,NCAA | No Comments
(10) Xavier Musketeers
Notre Dame played well enough to beat a lot of teams in their second round game against the Musketeers, but in the end the difference was that the Musketeers had Tu Holloway while they didn't. Making up for last year's lackluster showing on the big stage, Holloway balled out against the Fighting Irish scoring 25 points. 17 of those came in the second half. With 21 seconds remaining he hit the go-ahead shot over Jack Cooley to put his team on top 64-63, a lead they wouldn't relinquish as they moved on to win 67-63. The Musketeers frontline, which was the subject of criticism throughout the regular season, did a nice job on the boards. In the Round of 32 the Musketeers will take on the Lehigh Mountain Hawks in a game that few predicted to occur. The key for the Musketeers will be keeping C.J. McCollum in check and most importantly off of the free throw line. This game could come down to who plays better between McCollum and Holloway.
(15) Lehigh Mountain Hawks
After watching Norfolk State pull off the 15 vs. two seed upset earlier, the Mountain Hawks decided to go ahead and make history by doing the same thing themselves. It was the first time ever that two 15 seeds topped two two seeds. The Mountain Hawks played Duke tough all game long and took control late as they surprised the nation with a 75-70 upset win. They worked through C.J. Mccollum offensively. He didn't have his best shooting game, making just 9 of 24 from the field, but he continuously got to the free throw line and did other things as well. He finished with 30 points, six rebounds, six assists and two steals. The Mountain Hawks did a great job defensively of contesting the Blue Devils shots from beyond the arc. They rely on the three ball to fall for them and on Friday night it did not; they missed 20 of their 26 looks. As long as McCollum produces like he did in the second round, they're going to be hard to send home. Against Xavier they're going to have to find a way to contain Holloway.
HOOPSWORLD's pick:Xavier. After an up-and-down regular season, we're going to go with Holloway and the Musketeers making those struggles a thing of the past by moving onto the Sweet 16.
Who do you think is going win? Chime in by leaving a comment below!
ving onto the Sweet 16.

November 13, 2008 Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) teams continue to work in Goma and other parts of North Kivu province in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) after the most recent outbreaks of fighting. MSF remains very concerned about the many people still fleeing the ongoing violence. Many displaced and local residents are in urgent need of food, clean water, healthcare, and basic items such as blankets and shelter materials. Teams are working at health centers in Kiwanja, in Rutshuru town, and at Rutshuru hospital. In the last two days, the surgical team has treated two wounded people at the hospital. Over the last three days, about 31 cholera patients have been treated at the cholera treatment center. |

BookArc Stand
Our new BookArc has been redesigned and engineered to make it the ultimate stand for MacBook Pro and MacBook Pro with Retina display. Its soft silicone insert is molded to follow the gentle curves of MacBook Pro for a precise fit. So park your MacBook Pro in this stand and watch your laptop become the ultimate desktop.
BookArc is designed exclusively for the MacBook Pro (unibody) and MacBook Pro with Retina display.
Zen-like workspace.
Compared to your MacBook Pro lying flat on your desk, BookArc for MacBook Pro takes up a fraction of the space...giving your workspace a clean, less cluttered look. And soft silicone feet provide sturdy footing that won't leave marks on your desk. Go ahead and say "om."
Hidden cable management.
Underneath BookArc for MacBook Pro are two hidden cable management hooks that prevent your monitor, USB, and power cables from slipping to the floor when you unplug your MacBook Pro. The new BookArc for MacBook Pro also ships with an insert custom made for MacBook Pro with Retina display.
BookArc can help boost productivity.
Did you know you can work with your MacBook Pro closed when connected to an external monitor? You can. Using your MacBook in Closed-Clamshell Mode in a BookArc can also give your MacBook a performance boost, compared to a dual-monitor setup. How? When you close your MacBook, your system automatically dedicates 100% of its video memory to the external display rather than splitting it with the built-in display.
Depending on your MacBook model, you can see snappier graphics and faster screen refreshes, especially when working in graphics-intensive applications like Aperture and Photoshop. BookArc didn't create the feature, but it can teach your MacBook the trick.
Focus on one big screen.
Why work with your beautiful Retina Display closed with your MacBook Pro resting in a BookArc? While the Retina Display is amazing, pixels are pixels and size is size. A 27-inch external display dwarfs a 15-inch monitor when it comes to editing movies in Final Cut Pro, retouching photos in Aperture, scanning huge spreadsheets in Numbers or viewing multiple apps at once. Use your Retina Display on the road and BookArc Pro and a desktop monitor at home.
As seen in:
Key facts:
- Use MacBook closed in BookArc for best performance at home or office
- Free up valuable desk space by elevating MacBook off the desk
- Cable management hooks keep desktop connections handy and accessible
- Also available at Apple Store
I just take the MacBook Pro... and stick it into the BookArc, and my desk is clear. – Newsweek (more)
MacBook Pro (Unibody- 13", 15", 17")
MacBook Pro with Retina display (13", 15")
Already a BookArc Pro user? You're covered too. An insert for BookArc is available that makes all previous BookArc Pro stands fully Retina-compatible. Learn more here.

Cranberry Pear
Black Fruit Blend by DAVIDsTEA
Berry good
A few months ago, David tried a fruity dessert tea that knocked his socks off. It was subtle and refined, delicately floral and slightly sweet. He was intrigued. He had to have it. But what was the secret ingredient? Cranberries. Normally associated with a neon red holiday sauce, these beautiful berries really sing when paired with rich, floral black tea. Here we blend them with big pieces of pear and apple for the fruit and black tea blend you won't believe you ever went without.
Ingredients: Cranberry, black tea, pear, apple, artificial flavouring*.

Blog Hiatus
In observance of the wake and funeral for Kevin Kearney, we'll be taking a blog hiatus until Friday.
In 1962, Irv Kloska and Bonnie Kowrach stood in St. Adalbert's Basilica in Grand Rapids and pledged their lives to each other. More than 50 years and 13 children later, their family has grown to more than 80 members... and counting. With this blog we keep in touch and share our thoughts - much like we have always done around our kitchen table. But like our table, friends are always invited. Welcome!

Thanks for the great link! I don't completely agree, but it's good food for thought.

I don't agree either. And I really don't understand the hate-thing with prologues. I'm reading a great book right now--Brain Jack by Brian Falkner. And, uh oh, it begins with a prologue. Just like anything else in a book, it can be done well, it can be done poorly.
But I love you, Brent! - May 10, 2011 at 6:25 AM
