In Our Time - Architecture and power
Melvyn Bragg
The role which architecture has played in our public life throughout history, whether in homage to an individual or as a monument to an institution or ideology, has always been a potent symbol of wealth, status and power. From castles to cathedrals, from the pyramids to Canary Wharf, architecture has always served to glorify in some way the animating ideal of the time. Why is architecture such a powerful form of expression? Have architects concerned themselves mainly with the masses, or restricted their designs to the demands and aspirations of the elite? What can a country's buildings tell us about its ideas of its own past and present identity?In Our Time - The Great Fire Of London
Melvyn Bragg
The Great Fire of London was a conflagration of unimaginable proportions – up to a third of the city was destroyed – but the burning of London, the interpretation of the fire and the arguments and ideas about what should be rebuilt give an insight into a city and a period that housed the Royal Society and the restored Stuart monarchy, a place of religious anxiety and fear of foreign invasion in a country still haunted by the Civil War.Special Interest

This is a great code. The DLL works good. But it cant get the web applications. Is it possible to get data in web application using this DLL?
Very great work! Thanks.
I think that might be why i cannot do what I'm trying to do: I installed a hook and can deal with the message when it occurs. Using CopyMemory I can receive data sent along, but I'd like to *modify* those date, so I need to use CopyMemory again with my modified values.Originally Posted by moeur
It "looks like" it to work, as in no crash or anything, but the external app actualy behaves as if I didnot send back any new values
Could this be the reason why, and if so could anyone help me with how to "subclass" an external app then (would another DLL be required instead of this one??), or am I missing something here/should it work fine with such hooks ?
Thanks for your help!
You might want to look into the following topics:
Using userdefined/non-marshalled messages in external programs by allocating memory in their process space
Inject your code into other processes
More process injection, function redirection
Good Luck
I've done some more reading & testing, but I'm getting more confused than anything else.
Here's what I'm trying to do: add a menuitem to the menu of another app, eg. notepad, but with "complete control" over it.
Adding the menu and getting it just a few API calls, no problem. But I set it ownerdrawn, because I want to actually draw it myself. And my problem is when dealing with the WM_MEASUREITEM, etc messages. I did it on my VB app and it that went well.
So I tried using your great DLL to set up a hook to get the notepad's messages. I did got the message, but as I mentionned in my previous post setting my data on WM_MEASUREITEM seems to be ignored by notepad :S
So I tried a few different ways, like instead of a CopyMemory I used a OpenProcess/VirtualAllocEx/WriteProcessMemory, because I thought that might have been the problem.
Seems not. I got the same results. But it seems that the data are written (according to lpNumOfBytesWritten for WriteProcessMemory), actually both times: even with a single CopyMemory, I think, because if afterwards I do another CopyMemory to get back the data (like the first time, when I got the menuitem's index, etc) the new width/height I set are returned.
I not an expert of all this, but I tried reading different posts/articles/etc but I have no idea what's happening here. To me it looks like the data are written, yet ignored by notepad??
Even more confusing (to me), I did on WM_DRAWITEM draw my menuitem all red, to see if I could actually draw on notepad or not.
And I can, but I'm not drawing where I should be (on menubar) but below it, within the edit area!! The horizontal position is right though, and the vertical space makes me say it looks like the problem is that I'm not draing on notepad's non-client area!! Like I got the "wrong" hDc or something...
Again, I'm not even sure what I just said make sense, but that's all I can see.
Does anyone ever done something like this? Or has an idea of what's the problem/how to fix this?
How would I use this to hook all requests to shell32.dll's SHBrowseForFolder API so that the BrowseForFolder window displays shortcuts to folders (or even all files)?
Does your DLL support WH_CBT?
You may be tired of questions about your post "Subclass External Programs done for you" from Jan 2005. I see that your last post to this thread was just days away from being one year ago. This is probably the best example I have ever seen on line, and is probably the closest to answering my quest. I am desperately seeking a way to read a popup menu (class name "#32768). I can get the handle, I can manipulate it (activate, scroll, select) without a problem. The problem is, I am blind to the text in this type of menu and what I am selecting. I have a post "Read from Popup Menu" looking for something like your dll, ocx. Is it capable of reading this type of menu and or which selection is highlighted? I would be extremely grateful for any help! I have been seeking a solution everywhere and it appears you are my best hope in weeks. I consider myself a reasonably good VB coder but subclassing I just can't seem to get down.

First of all, thanks for the great dll.
However, I'm trying to make it run on a Windows Mobile device, with the compact framework 3.5...with no success.. I've managed to modify the VB part but with my limited knowledge in C I was unsuccessful in recompiling the dll for the compact framework. I know that the functions SendMessage and SetWindowsHookEx exist in the CF (even if not documented), so it should be possible to make the project run in CF.
Can someone with VC knowledge help me recompile the dll for the Compact Framework 3.5, please.
How can I hook into a program's file output. Basically I want to intercept what a program is outputing to a file and modify it before it gets there.
I just HAD to post to say - AWESOME CODING!!! THANKS MAN!!

I actually have another dll which doesn't have any bugs, as there are some bugs in the dll that u have used. But I don't have the code for that dll. I have tried a thousand time to search the code of that dll in the internet but have failed. And also that dll let me capture all kind of messages from the notepad window

Good Day Mr. Moeur,
I am wondering if it is possible to use your dll, or some version of it, to capture the WM_CREATE message and alter the CREATESTRUCT UDT so that the lpCreateParams would contain a pointer to the MDICREATESTRUCT UDT to make an external program an actual child of a VB MDI application.
Option Explicit should not be an Option!
Hello Moeur,
when you say: To Get the string value pointed to by lParam you can use a function like this: Public Function StrFromPtr(pStr As Long) As String ...
Where can I do the call to this funcion? In the Form or the module...
In the hook Demo 2 posted(post 2) here, I'm getting a crash when mousing down over the notepads scrollbar.
To reproduce:
Add some carriage returns, so that the scrollbar is visible.
Press L Button down to scroll on the scrollbar.
Am I using it wrong, or should that be filtered?

What's the childclassname? And why should it be "Edit" when i hook notepad?
I need to know because when i hook another application with a different Parentcaption i get an error saying i must set handle before setting hook.
I think I am, therefore, I am. I think.
I think I am, therefore, I am. I think.
I've a new labtop working with windows 7.
The file hookcontrol.ocx seems to be not compatible with version x86 (32bits) or X86(64bits) of regsvr32.exe.
Is it possible to have an updated version of this ocx file or a way to compile myself on my labtop.
Thanks in advance
Try pressing the Windows key+R, then copy and paste:
If this doesn't work, what error message are you getting?Code:c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32.exe hookcontrol.ocx

Hi moeur, excellent work.
I tried the .NET version you posted, in VB and C#, but in both cases the events don't fire from the hook. All appears to set up ok, window handle obtained, messages added, etc. An instance of EditHook (clsHook) exists and is visible in watch window. Any ideas if I have missed something? Thanks.
ADDENDUM it works on a Win32-only machine, but not on a Win64 machine when targeted to x86. IDEAS?

No, I was running in VS2010 in admin mode anyway. It DOES work on a Win32 machine, but not a Win64 machine (targeted to either x86 or 64bit). I think I read somewhere the unmanaged DLL has to be changed with regard to DWORDs. Shame, I guess I will have to keep looking....

Question by Nemesis 11502 · May 24 '12 at 01:02 PM · kidney infection
I haven't been eating as well as I should over the past couple of months. Too much starch, not enough veggies, and too many sweets. This past week my energy levels have been low, my back has been hurting and I've been retaining water like a sumbitch.
Luckily I have a pack of urine test strips at home and when I checked this morning I had a very high amount (500+) of leukocytes, indicating infection. Doc appointment has been scheduled for later on this morning, and this has motivated me to get back on to a stricter Primal diet (during which I had zero kidney problems for nearly 2 years). No more cornbread or sauce with my BBQ, no more dark chocolate from Aldi, no more thin-crust pizza from Domino's once a month.
I've been lazy, and now I feel like crap and am going to have to shell out $40 for a doctor's visit because of it.
What happens to you when you start incorporating too much crap in your diet? Do you see a drastic reaction?
UPDATE: Went to doc, did a urinalysis, no signs of infection or RBC's (wtf?). He's concerned that, given my history, I may have a stone lurking somewhere in my kidneys. Having bi-lateral aching and mild spasming, he's leaving it to me to decide what I want to do. I'm opting for conservative treatment, and will take muscle relaxers as needed, eat right, drink water, and apply heat through the long weekend. If the pain persists, he'll set me up for an ultrasound.
He knows I eat Primal (and is very supportive), and I mentioned that I'd been slacking hard, eating too much crap and not enough veggies. He said that if you're predisposed to these kinds of things (stones, infections, etc), the least little deviation can trigger a recurrence. So, yeah, that sucks lol. I'm calling it "motivation".
Rotisserie chicken, turnip greens and blueberries for lunch. Being a good girl ;)

As long as I consume cheat foods in calorically sane quantities and not on a regular basis, nothing at all happens to me.

Acute exposure to neolithic foods has no effect in my experience.
Answer by PKN 1339 · May 24 '12 at 02:48 PM
I've been straying way too much the last few months into crap, bread, chips, etc. due to the influence of a girlfriend. I have been feeling older and creakier thru that same time period, and gained a few LBs. got her moved out last week, now I am back to eating right, even lifted weights last night. I bet i will start to feel much better/younger in the next few weeks. none of it is instant is my point, getting better OR getting worse, it sneaks up over a few months.
Answer by pinkpants1 185 · May 24 '12 at 03:18 PM
After 30 strict days (no grains or dairy), we had a friend in town visiting, celebrated our anniversary, and I had major PMS cravings (which I think were spurred on by the previous events/cheats) all in a little over a week.
I felt pretty okay eating the steak burrito (covered in an amazing cheesy sauce), chips and salsa, other than guilt. Then I woke up the next day and noticed some stomach pains and icky poops, as well as feeling moderately "hung over." Headache, lethargy, foggy, etc.
Two days later, I succumbed to Blue Bell Strawberry ice cream. A generous bowl. Felt high after eating, intense sugar rush, sort of panicky and jittery. Followed by instant headache and just feeling like shit. The next day, I was craving ice cream so bad, I went to the store and bought 3 pints. Ate them all over the course of the day with some beer. Felt like total shit while doing it and the next day. Stomach pains, hung over feeling (not enough beer for that), etc. Bloated tummy throughout all this.
I was surprised by my reaction because I was initially skeptical when starting Paleo for my boyfriend. Am now a Paleo CocoNUT. :-) I've also been losing weight for months and have quite high willpower, the ice cream binge was very very unusual for me. I think it was spurred on by the cheating. Taking away from this...non paleo really messes with me and also leads to intense cravings for crap food. I had wanted to add in some dairy again but am now kind of scared to. Obviously, eating pints of ice cream and restaurant cheese sauce were not the way to try it but the results were pretty bad.
Answer by A. 307 · May 24 '12 at 04:19 PM
For me, wheat generally results in fogginess, intestinal pain, gas and bloat culminating about 48hrs from ingestion with lovely diarrhea. Small amounts (like a couple of bites of well buttered roll or a beer or two) can sometimes escape unnoticed. Most other things have no immediate effect for me, though I do appear to be sensitive to nightshades too (which sucks 'cause I love them) and these cause intestinal issues within hours for me.
Sustained exposure makes me feel weak, crabby and totally unmotivated. Best described as if I am constantly swimming in jello - it takes tremendous force of will to get moving and do anything and I am pissy with everyone. This generally makes family supportive of me staying away from this stuff...
Answer by Sarah 37 81 · May 24 '12 at 01:26 PM
Hi Nemesis, I hope you are OK? I am also suffering today. I think I have sucumbed to the flu unfortunately. Since going paleo a year ago, this is the first time I have fallen properly ill and I think it is because I have been being naughty in the last month. I've eaten birthday cake, too much chocolate and the odd biscuit here and there at my bf's house. I am pretty sure that the sugar has undermined my health so, like you, I have resolved that cheating is not worth it! I am determined to keep this virus short though and am eating loads of fresh garlic, taking elderberry tincture and elderflower teas. I hope you feel better soon!
Answer by Sam 6 1344 · May 24 '12 at 02:32 PM
Sometimes I feel great, filled with joy and loads of energy for days. Sometimes the same food gives me a big shot of energy and quickly after shoots me down.
The past two days I had some cheats (400g chocolate, 350g pancakes, two eclairs and some bread) and I actually feel better than when eating Paleo (doesn't mean it IS better). Maybe it's the endorphine/carb rush? My lowered stress? Higher vitamin D levels? Better gut health? Carb refeed due to lack of carbs in my usual diet?
I'm actually waiting now for my face to break out. Normally this would have happened already and maybe it won't this time. But what I do know from the past is that a couple of extra days eating this crap will surely result in feeling like crap. It can start differently but always ends the same way.
Answer by Lindenblossom 201 · May 24 '12 at 06:38 PM
Sometimes I can get away with small amounts of bready stuff & grains, but then it leads to larger amounts and that's bad news. Tummy trouble galore, puffiness, etc.
In general, when I stick to a diet primarily of good meats, good fats, fresh herbs from the garden, and pastured dairy (butter, cheese and cream), etc., I feel and look much better.
However, I have noticed that I do not suffer from occasional "non-paleo" foods such as baked goods if I have them once in awhile, and only in the morning right after a good breakfast (as a "dessert"). Anything I eat in the morning seems to be burned off completely by the afternoon, thanks to bike commutes or other necessary activities of the day.
Eating those same types of things near the end of the day, however, can cause a great deal of gastrointestinal distress and even a lack of sleep.
Has anyone else noticed this? I've decided that my occasional (quality) pizza slice or doughnut will be in the morning after eating a full breakfast of meat or eggs and some fats.

I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day, but now it's time to cut back on the calories and count down until the spring break holiday…and frankly, it couldn't come fast enough! With spring and summer fashion trends flooding department stores and boutiques everywhere, I couldn't help but style an outfit around the beautiful Brooklyn Decker's floral fashion look. This A-lister and top-notch trendsetter never disappoints when she is spotted out, and I absolutely adore her colorful pairing that is perfect for a summer picnic out on Town Lake or a shopping day with the gals.
Bold prints and colors are obviously popular this season, and I found some similar and affordable jackets in both a floral and tropical print- ready to add a trendy touch to your favorite LBD. Most importantly, you can't go wrong with a pair of Sam Edelman sandals, which are always my go-to summer shoes. Doesn't Brooklyn just look flawless?

That's the noise currently living in my ears after last night's Machine Head gig, and it's one of the painful reminders of just how awesome last night was. The others would be the aches and pains of hours of pit antics, and a severe lack of sleep.
We got there way too early; I was expecting much worse traffic than was actually on the roads, so we were inside waiting for the arena doors to open by 5:45. It was disheartening at first, as teen after teen arrived and queued, most of who were wearing the same one or two Machine Head t-shirts, and all of who looked way too young to even remember the likes of Davidian. I was sat there feeling very old as emo haircuts, leggings(!) and bumfluff beards queued, wondering why on earth anyone would stand and queue to get in before the first support act starts, but each to their own.
I don't even remember the name of the first band, but I feel for them. Trying to get a small crowd going for it at half-six in the evening, with really crazy vocals and heavy guitars is a pretty thankless task. They had one half-decent track but the others left me cold. Next up was Bleeding Through, a group I knew of through the likes of Metal Hammer, but had never really listened to before. They were pretty good, very heavy and really good at working the crowd (I'd never been a part of 'The Wall Of Death' before last night), but still pretty indecipherable. To be honest, I think the sound setup for the first two acts left a lot to be desired. All you could hear was guitar and nothing else. I'm as big a fan of heavy guitar as the next man, but I want to hear the rest of the band too.
After the first two small sets Hatebreed took the stage. Now Hatebreed I'm more familiar with. They were great, big heavy riffs and a lot of bouncing. They were the first ones to get me moving on the floor. They played a long set much to everyone's very vocal enjoyment, and I think I'll be investing in an album or two soon. Lights up, curtains up and time to mill around and get a drink before the headliners take the stage.
Stood there with my mate having a chat before they started, the roadies started doing the sound check, and I can honestly say I've never heard – or more accurately 'felt' – a louder bass drum. It made every part of me shake; we looked at each other in instant acknowledgement that this was going to be loud, very loud, and very excellent! Once the curtain dropped they opened with a track from the 'The Blackening' album and the whole arena went fucking crazy! They weren't promoting an album so they treated us to a mix of old stuff and some of the less well-known album tracks which was just brilliant. Everyone in there knew every track, the pit was bouncing, shoving and getting into it (and we were in the middle of it), it was a metal-head's wet dream. At one point the band got everyone to clear the centre of the floor and demanded to their very obliging fans, that they start 'the biggest circle pit this place has ever seen'. We didn't disappoint, it was immense and incredibly good.
Robb Flynn and the rest of the guys are consummate professionals; every track they played sounded as good as the studio versions. Harmonised solos, awesome vocals and finishing with an encore of Halo followed by Davidian just topped off the perfect night. You haven't heard Davidian until you've felt the machine gun double-bass drumming hammering your chest. There's not a bit of me that isn't aching this morning, I didn't get in the front door 'til after 1am, and I can barely hear a thing today, but it was all worth it. I can happily say that I've seen one of my favourite bands in the world, and they lived up to my expectations and far beyond. I was going to go to a local Rock Night tomorrow night, but I don't think I'll bother now, there's no way it can top that while it's still fresh in my head .

First and foremost I would like to thank CTDeuce and Millennium Sport Technologies as well as all other applicants for this position, for this opportunity.
Over the next few weeks I hope to cover many things; my diet, my supplement protocol, my training protocol and most importantly the correlation of all of these elements and how MST Somnidren GH and ZMK [AKA "GHSR Stack"] contributes.
Tonight (July 3rd, 2008) will be my first night dosing the GHSR Stack. I will cease all other sleep oriented supplements or GH manipulators for this experiment. I hope to compile a non-biased opinion to help steer potential purchasers one way or the other.
Please check back often as I chart my progress with this groundbreaking new GH boosting, recovery enhancing supplement.
Wish me luck!

Detroit finance team meets for first time
Detroit mayor Dave Bing opened the first meeting of the city's newly formed financial advisory board by telling its members their task is to help return Detroit to greatness.
The problem is, the city has a massive budget deficit to wrestle with while it tries to keep the street lights on and the busses running.
Sheila Cockrel served on the city council for 16 years before retiring in 2009. She says there needs to be a major shift in the culture for the intervention to work.
"Them and us doesn't work," Cockrel said. "This is not someone taking something away. This has got to be everybody coming to the table for the common good and for the greater good. 'Cause what's good for Detroit is good for Michigan."
The nine-member board is mandated by the city's consent agreement with the state.

With routers becoming the hub of the home, the new Smart Wi-Fi Routers deliver incredibly fast Wi-Fi speeds with exceptional in-house Wi-Fi coverage and a host of innovative tools for home network monitoring and control. These new routers also are compatible with Linksys Smart Wi-Fi mobile apps, which make it simple to access and control your home network on the go. Smarter Routers for Smart Devices With more smart devices entering the home, consumers need Wi-Fi that is powerful, easy to use and enables them to get to their media files—wherever they are. The new dual-band Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Routers are equipped with the latest 802.11ac technology, offering fast wireless speeds—up to three times the speed of Wireless-N*, excellent range and backward compatibility with existing wireless devices. Additionally, the new Smart Wi-Fi Routers are IPv6-enabled, supporting the latest Internet Protocol technology to future-proof home networks. Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router AC 1600 Video Enthusiast, EA6400 – The dual-band AC 1600 is an ideal option for homes with five to seven connected devices. This router has Wi-Fi speeds up to 1300 Mbps on the 5 GHz band and up to 300 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band. Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router AC 1200 Advanced Multimedia, EA6300 – Offering up to 867 Mbps on the 5 GHz band and up to 300 Mbps on the 2.4 GHz band, the dual-band AC 1200 is the ideal fit for a small home with three to five connected devices such as a PC, smartphone and Smart TV. The new Linksys routers are also equipped with Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 ports. The USB ports can be used to share storage devices or printers throughout the home. With a USB flash drive or hard drive connected to the new Smart Wi-Fi Routers, media can be shared in and outside the home. With Gigabit Ethernet and USB 3.0 ports, the routers can rapidly transfer files between the connected storage and other devices—ideal for using the routers' USB storage capabilities to back up media from consumers' smartphones, tablets or notebooks. Linksys also added beamforming technology to all new 802.11ac routers to deliver better network range and faster Wi-Fi speeds in the home. Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Routers with beamforming technology are designed to precisely adjust, steer and monitor the direction and shape of the Wi-Fi signals for better performance. Beamforming technology is also supported in our coordinating Mini Wireless-AC Dual-Band USB Adapter, the AE6000. The new Smart Wi-Fi Routers can be installed from most tablets, smartphones or from PC browsers. Consumers simply connect to the router with their device then follow the simple set-up wizard to complete installation. An optional Linksys Smart Wi-Fi account can be created for easy control of the home network, including settings, connected devices and Smart Wi-Fi tools on virtually any device, anytime, anywhere. With SimpleTap now available on all Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Routers, the process of connecting devices to a home network is as easy as one touch of a button or a quick tap of a card. SimpleTap allows users to take advantage of Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) by pushing the physical WPS button on the router or pushing the WPS button in the router's browser or app interface. Availability The Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router AC 1200 Advanced Multimedia, EA6300, $169.99 MSRP, is available immediately, and the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi Router AC 1600 Video Enthusiast, EA6400, $189.99 MSRP, is planned for availability by the end of May.
Maybe it doesn't make that much of a difference. The antenna is inside and isn't not like plastic is going to attenuate the signal all that much. Works fine for me on the E4200.
I think they do it due to looks and being cheaper that way, how ever you can upgrade them even more so the e4200. Although by the pic i am going post looks like you can add 6 too it and you can get the upgrades mods on ebay Maybe it's a bit of every thing cost \ cheaper to build and looks. although i think they are really ugly and inconvenient lol
Not to sure about that. When i was testing 1 of 3 of there routers out i removed the antenna and got near 0 loss of signal, reason why i did it was to know which was which router due to testing if they worked as they should of. Although you could be right if they are not made as good as the good old Linksys ones were. If they really have got that weak i am glad i am using the old ones still..
See those were linksys and not cisco linksys a.d now we got blekin linksys and they will change hands again...
True, although that was like only 4 month ago. and it's not as if were expecting improvements from them. is a shame i lost interest in linksys went UFO style lol.
Actually, i have a much better coverage with E4200 than i had with WRT54GL with external antennas and the same transmitting power. So the shape isn't everything. And since it looks better i can now have on my desk in a corner. Btw, are these still from Cisco or are they already underneath Belkin just not yet branded as such (aka Linksys by Belkin)?
Yeahs shapes not really going do much except for looking like it melted next to the fireplace imo. I am sure some one will do in depths reviews of one sooner or later. I guess we will wait and see what they do, maybe they will do it right and keep the Linksys ones 3rd party flash able. Maybe they will surprise us HAAHAHAHAHAHA...
People keep bashing Linksys but has your E4200 ever failed you? It has been one of the better routers I've owned to be honest. It has never crashed on me or slowed down, not once. You can't tell me that this is bad for Wi-Fi. My signal goes through a floor and two walls before it gets to the router:
Nope, i also think it's superb. To my surprise even stock firmware worked really well unlike the one on WRT54GL which kept on hanging randomly. I was using DD-WRT on my E4200 for a while until i found out TomatoRAF (the original Tomato project is dead) which has a far better QOS control and is even more stable than DD-WRT which was very unreliable few months ago, not sure how it is now... It can work for several months without fiddling with it, it's CPU seems to be quick enough to deal with massive number of P2P connections and still be able to sort everything through QOS for games to be very playable even at that time. Sure i wouldn't mind the Marvell 1GHz monstrosity from v1 but that one doesn't support TomatoRAF, so it has to be this way. If i could only overclock it without hindering stability, now that would be awesome

A 10-year-old Kingston boy has won a $1,000 saving bond towards education for growing an outsized cabbage last summer.
The Massachusetts Department of Agriculture picked Matthew Schmitz, a fourth grader at Kingston Intermediate School, at random from among 6,809 schoolchildren across the state who entered a national contest sponsored by Bonnie Plants.
More than 1.5 million third graders participate in the program each year, using seeds supplied by the company.
His cabbage tipped the scales at 42 pounds. That's enough for about 168 cups of cole slaw, or 650 healthy servings.
Matthew said he was surprised and pleased when he won because so much time and effort to tend his crop. The biggest challenge was protecting his prize from a hungry woodchuck.
"It was fun and interesting to see how it would grow," he said in a phone interview on Tuesday.
Last summer was his first as a farmer, but not the last. He has plans for another garden this year.
Akk that cole slaw? Help yourself. Matthew doesn't even like cabbage.

Gigabyte announced its GeForce GTX Titan graphics card. Much like every other GTX Titan announced till now, it sticks to NVIDIA reference design. To spice things up, Gigabyte is tossing in a few extras from its Aivia line of gaming peripherals, by including a gaming mousepad, and a pack of Aivia-themed playing cards that you can also play "memory" with. Based on the 28 nm GK110 silicon, the GeForce GTX Titan features 2,688 CUDA cores, 224 TMUs, 48 ROPs, and a 384-bit wide GDDR5 memory interface, holding 6 GB of memory. The card features NVIDIA reference clock speeds of 837/876/6008 MHz (core/GPU Boost/memory). It should be priced at $1000 before taxes, $1100~$1200 after it.
Of course it's not worth it but you would be surprised the number of people who will buy these none the less. These high priced toys are for bragging rights.
I have that mouse pad, it cost like $15 lol Bragging rights is me saying haha my $500 Video cards are beating your $1000 Titan
Awww look, it comes with a pack of playing cards to practice poker in the hopes of winning back the $1000 you just dumped on a card that'll be obsolete in no time. Gigabyte does care!
If we start paying these prices for video cards you will see EVERYTHING go up !!! I like to get the latest and greatest but not this time. This price is absolutely ridiculous (imo)
Not that I would buy it, but if I were I would be glad I live in a state where there is no sales tax, no state income tax, and even happier that there are liquor stores on the highway and anywhere you would want one because after spending this much on a GPU, you're going to be wishing you had some liquor to forget how much it costed.
Do they really think a mousemat and a deck of cards will get ppl to buy a 1 grand video card? Bitch please...
at least it might bring in moar fish (with lotsa $$$ to burn if they can afford this) to the pool, i could always use more idiots (grinding away for a new bike, pc and stuff )
I agree! We too much TOLERATE these price politics, wtf are we doing?! In my opinion, there is no advancement in the GPU field at all. The architecture is not advanced enough, it runs HOT, it makes small leaps in fps, consumes a lots of ENERGY and PLANETARY and HUMAN resources. Culture and its values are not our friends.
i have nothing against cashing in on someone's excess money and/or idiocy. that's why i started playing poker. if you don't have money to burn or are not an idiot, you won't pay them, that's all.
I was gonna make a joke about the playing cards, but has been said already. They should offer a mouse with that pad.
I wouldn't buy it for that price even if it came with a free t-shirt... Especially since my last high end card only lasted a bit over 2 years. I purchased a high end with the thought of it being future proof for a few years not to have it die on me just outside it warranty period . Never again will I buy a high end card. Its mid range cards for me now.
I wouldn't even buy it unless it gave me enough stuff to offset the price to 750 USD and even then it will be a tough sell.

The application of the title "Christ" to Jesus most likely did not come until after Easter. If any of the disciples understood Jesus as the Christ before Easter, their recorded behavior in the gospels was nonsensical.
Where did the word Christ emerge? Christ is our English translation of the Greek word christos, which means "messiah," "savior," or "redeemer." But Christos is an attempt to put the Hebrew word mashiach, which meant "God's anointed one," into Greek. In early Israel history the king was also called God's anointed one.
There have been some interesting attempts to discover the "historical" Jesus, but the only Jesus we really know is the one in the New Testament, and those writers were not interested in historical accuracy.

I was taught that he was divine, the only-begotten Son, God in human flesh, the second person of the Trinity and he thought he was all these things. It never occurred to me that such a person could not be human. If Jesus had superhuman knowledge and power, he cannot be a model for ordinary humans.

From The French Chef Cookbook (Knopf, 1968), by Julia Child:
How to make the authentic bouillabaisse is always a subject of lively discussion among French experts; each always insists that his own is the only correct version. If you do not happen to live on the Mediterranean, you cannot obtain the particular rockfish, gurnards, mullets, weavers, sea eels, wrasses, and breams which they consider the absolutely essential fish for bouillabaisse, but you can make an extremely good facsimile even if you have only frozen fish and canned clam juice to work with, because all the other essential flavors of tomatoes, onion or leeks, garlic, herbs, and olive oil are always available.
Bouillabaisse is really a fish chowder; whole small fish or large fish cut into serving pieces are boiled in a deliciously aromatic fish broth. The fish are served on a platter, and the broth in a tureen, and you eat both together in large soup plates.
For the best and most interesting flavor, pick six or more varieties of fish, which is why a bouillabaisse is ideally made for at least six people. Some of the fish should be firm fleshed and gelatinous, like halibut, eel, and cusk; some should be tender and flaky like hake, whiting, and sole. The firm fish hold their shape, and the tender fish partially disperse in the soup. Shellfish are optional, but always add glamour and color if you wish to include them.
Except for live lobsters and crabs, all the fish may be cleaned, sliced, and refrigerated several hours before the final cooking. The soup base may be boiled, strained, and refrigerated. The actual cooking of the fish in the soup will take only about 20 minutes, and then the dish should be served immediately.
The Fish
Fish for bouillabaisse should be lean, and of the best and freshest-smelling quality. Here are some suggestions: bass, cod, conger or sea eel, cusk, flounder, grouper, grunt, haddock, hake or whiting, halibut, perch, pollock, rockfish or sculpin, snapper, spot, sea trout or weakfish, wolffish. Shellfish—crab, lobster, mussels, clams, scallops.
Have the fish cleaned and scaled; discard gills. Save heads, bones, and trimmings for the soup base. Cut large fish into crosswise slices of 2 inches wide. Scrub clams; scrub and soak mussels; wash scallops. If using live crab or lobster, split just before cooking; remove sand sack and intestinal tube from lobsters, and tail flap from under crabs.
Bouillabaisse a la Marseillaise
(Mediterranean Fish Chowder)
For 6 to 8 people
The Soup Base
- 1 cup sliced yellow onions
- ¾ to 1 cup sliced leeks, white part only; or ½ cup more onions
- ½ cup of olive oil
- A heavy 8-quart kettle or casserole
- 2 to 3 cups chopped fresh tomatoes, or 1¼ cups drained canned tomatoes, or ¼ cup tomato paste
- 4 cloves mashed garlic
Cook the onions and leeks slowly in the olive oil for 5 minutes without browning.
Stir in the tomatoes and garlic, and cook 5 minutes more.
- 2½ quarts water
- 6 parsley sprigs
- 1 bay leaf
- ½ tsp thyme or basil
- 1/8 tsp fennel
- 2 big pinches of saffron
- A 2-inch piece or ½ tsp dried orange peel
- 1/8 tsp pepper
- 1 Tb salt (none if using clam juice)
- 3 to 4 lbs. fish heads, bones, and trimmings including shellfish remains; or, 1 quart clam juice and 1½ quarts of water, and no salt
Add the water, herbs, seasoning, and fish or clam juice to the kettle. Bring to boil, skim, and cook, uncovered, at the slow boil for 30 to 40 minutes. Strain, correct seasoning. Set aside, uncovered, until cool if you are not finishing the bouillabaisse immediately, then refrigerate.
Cooking the Bouillabaisse
- The soup base
- 6 to 8 lbs. assorted lean fish, and shellfish if you wish, selected and according to directions at beginning of recipe
Bring the soup base to a rapid boil in the kettle about 20 minutes before serving. Add lobsters, crabs, and firm-fleshed fish. Bring quickly back to the boil and boil rapidly, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Then add the tender-fleshed fish, and the clams, mussels, and scallops. Bring back to the boil again for 5 minutes. Do not overcook.
- A hot platter
- A soup tureen or soup casserole
- Rounds of toasted French bread
- 1/3 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
Immediately lift out the fish and arrange on the platter. Carefully taste soup for seasoning, place 6 to 8 slices of bread in the tureen, and pour in the soup. Spoon a ladleful of soup over the fish, and sprinkle parsley over both fish and soup. Serve immediately.
At the table, each guest is served or helps himself to both fish and soup, placing them in a large soup plate. Eat the bouillabaisse with a large soup spoon and fork, helped along with additional pieces of French bread. If you wish to serve wine, you have a choice of rosé, a strong dry white wine such as Côtes du Rhône or Riesling, or a light, young red such as Beaujolais or domestic Mountain Red.

It Doesn't Bother Me
Jay Horn enjoyed his church retreat. Well, he enjoyed some parts of it--those parts that didn't directly involve Walter Slumpy.
"Yep," Slumpy would say, leaning back in his chair. "I've got the latest edition of Street Falcon XL—Cost me a $49.99. I'm already on level 12. Did I mention my new, extremely expensive show dog? He's a Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. Cost me BIG bucks."
"I couldn't get away from Slumpy the whole weekend," Jay said.
"Did you hear about my score in archery this morning?" Slumpy asked, though no one wanted to know. "Yep. I probably set the camp archery record. Not that I'm surprised, of course."
Maybe you've struggled with a "problem person," once or twice. Then join us this week and see if Jay survives the boasting and trash talk of Walter Slumpy.

The Great Commission says to "GO" and to "TEACH ALL NATIONS," but that's not always easy. It can be a difficult thing to step out and risk the rejection that sometimes comes when we take a stand for the Gospel.

Recipe by THREDDIES
"This garlicky red potato and asparagus dish is easy and delicious served either hot or cold. Rosemary and thyme give it a sophisticated flavor. Try adding a little chopped red pepper, too...yum!"
Watch video tips and tricks
1 1/2 pounds red potatoes, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
8 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
4 teaspoons dried rosemary
4 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 bunch fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1 inch pieces
ground black pepper to taste
I always follow the recipe exactly the 1st time. Until now... I didn't have any thyme so I omitted that. I poured 2 tbs. oil in the glass dish, added potatoes, garlic and red bell pepper and cooked covered for 30 mins. Then I added the asparagus and cooked covered for 5 mins. & uncovered for 5 more. Delicious!
I was skeptical at the huge amount of rosemary and thyme, but I always follow recipes to the T when I first try them. After eating what we could of this, my girlfriend and I felt like we had eaten a bowl of rosemary and parsley. It was barely palatable. I almost wonder if it's a misprint - perhaps 1/4-tsp. of each (instead of FOUR) would be better.

Wonderful! I followed other suggestions and cooked potatoes at 425 for 30 min covered, then 5 covered with asparagus and 5 more uncovered. The asparagus turned out perfectly. I also added raw onions to the potatoes, and everything turned out great! This will definitely be my go-to roasted potato recipe. Thanks!
these are very tasty! make sure to not add the asparagus until the last 5-10 mins, otherwise it will definitely be overdone. i also sometimes add peppers, onions, or whatever veggies you like!
Please make sure you like the taste of rosemary before trying this recipe as written. I like the herb in small amounts but I found the rosemary overwhelming in this dish, and ended up throwing most of it away. I'm still giving it 2 stars for the basic concept. I'm sure I would have liked this much better with different seasonings.
So simple and so delicious. I did have to extend the cooking time... the potatoes just wouldn't cook through. I ended up overcooking the asparagus a tad. Next time I will chop the potatoes into smaller pieces.
This was a very easy and flavorful recipe. The only thing I changed was cutting the herbs in half, and using 1/4 tsp of salt total. It would have been way too herby and salty as written. Great compliment to chicken and green salad.
Great combination. Potatoes were good but the asparagus was over cooked. 10 - 15 minutes total cooking time for the asparagus is probably long enough. Also would leave the asparagus spears whole next time.

Latest news and updates
Taiwan is added to the Tier 5 youth mobility scheme
22 December 2011
From 1 January 2012, Taiwan will join the list of countries and territories that participate in the UK's youth mobility scheme, under Tier 5 of the points-based system.
The countries that already participate in the scheme are Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Japan and Monaco.
The scheme is for young people from participating countries and territories who want to come and experience life in the UK. Every year, the UK government allocates a number of places on the youth mobility scheme for each country and territory. For 2012, Taiwan, Japan and Monaco will each receive an allocation of 1,000 places. This is in line with the number of places offered to UK nationals on their reciprocal schemes.
Australia, Canada and New Zealand's allocations will match the number of UK nationals who were issued visas on their reciprocal schemes in the previous year:
- Australia - 32,500 places
- Canada - 5,000 places
- New Zealand - 10,000 places
The Immigration Rules will be amended on 1 January 2012 to reflect the addition of Taiwan to the scheme. A statement of changes to the Immigration Rules (HC 1693) was laid before Parliament on 8 December, and can be downloaded from our Statements of changes to the Immigration Rules page.
For details of the scheme, see the Tier 5 (Youth mobility scheme) section.

Types of Hearing Tests
What are the different types of hearing tests?
In order to evaluate your child's hearing, your child's physician will perform a complete medical history and physical examination. In addition, there are many different types of hearing tests that can be used to check your child's hearing. Some of them may be used on all ages, while others are used based on your child's age and level of understanding.Hearing tests for the newborn:
There are two primary types of hearing screening methods for newborns. These may be used alone or together.- evoked otoacoustic emissions (EOAE) - a test that uses a tiny, flexible plug that is inserted into the baby's ear. Sounds are sent through the plug. A microphone in the plug records the otoacoustic emissions (responses) of the normal ear in reaction to the sounds. There are no emissions in a baby with hearing loss. This test is painless and is usually completed within a few minutes, while the baby sleeps.
- auditory brainstem response (ABR) - a test that uses electrodes (wires) attached with adhesive to the baby's scalp. While the baby sleeps, clicking sounds are made through tiny earphones in the baby's ears. The test measures the brain's activity in response to the sounds. As in EOAE, this test is painless and takes only a few minutes.
Hearing tests for the infant:
Evaluation of hearing in the infant may include the use of the above mentioned EOAE and ABR tests. Also, the following may be used:- behavioral audiometry - a screening test used in infants to observe their behavior in response to certain sounds. Additional testing may be necessary.
Hearing tests for the toddler:
Evaluation of hearing may include the above mentioned tests, along with the following:- play audiometry - a test that uses an electrical machine to transmit sounds at different volumes and pitches into your child's ears. Your child usually wears some type of earphones. This test is modified slightly in the toddler age group and made into a game. The toddler is asked to do something with a toy (i.e., touch a toy, move a toy) every time the sound is heard. This test relies on the cooperation of the child, which may not always be given.
- visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) - a test where the child is trained to look toward a sound source. When the child gives a correct response, the child is "rewarded" through a visual reinforcement such as a toy that moves or a flashing light. The test is most often used for children between six months to two years of age.
Hearing tests for the older child:
Evaluation of hearing for the child older than 3 to 4 years may include the above mentioned tests, along with the following:- pure tone audiometry - a test that uses an electrical machine that produces sounds at different volumes and pitches in your child's ears. The child usually wears some type of earphones. In this age group, the child is simply asked to respond in some way when the tone is heard in the earphone.
- tympanometry (also called impedance audiometry) - a test that can be performed in most physician offices to help determine how the middle ear is functioning. It does not tell if the child is hearing or not, but helps to detect any changes in pressure in the middle ear. This is a difficult test to perform in younger children because the child needs to sit very still and not be crying, talking, or moving.

Google Doodle Goes Live Globally Honoring Celia Cruz's 88th Birthday
MIAMI, Oct. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Eventus, the leading multicultural experiential, sports and entertainment marketing company in the United States, and the Celia Cruz Estate, proudly honor the Queen of Salsa's birthday today with a custom-designed Google Doodle celebrating her life and legacy. Google, Inc., the multinational corporation specializing in Internet-related services and products, chose the music icon, who died in 2003, to grace their search engine's home page today, on what would have been her 88th birthday.
"Ten years after her passing, it is incredible how 'alive' she still is. Her voice and image are present everywhere and her impact on culture worldwide is immeasurable", said Nelson Albareda, CEO of Eventus. "Celia continues to bring joy and enrich the lives of so many globally. We are grateful to Google for our collaboration in assuring that her legacy continues to reach new fans around the world."
Cuban-born Celia Cruz was internationally recognized as the "Queen of Salsa" and during her lifetime received countless awards and honors including three GRAMMY® Awards, four Latin GRAMMY®s, the Lifetime Achievement Award of the Smithsonian Institution, among other accolades. In 1994, US President Bill Clinton awarded her the highest honor the country bestows upon an artist: the National Endowment for the Arts. Celia recorded over 78 albums, many of which obtained platinum status and have been distributed worldwide. The Smithsonian Museum hosted an exhibit called Azucar: The Life and Music of Celia Cruz, and in 2011, the United States Postal Service honored her invaluable contributions to the entertainment industry and international impact by placing her image on a US postage stamp as part of the Latin Music Legends Series.
"There have been many posthumous tributes to Celia in these last ten years, but this one by Google is certainly one of the most important and far-reaching. The creation of her very own Google Doodle, an honor bestowed on a select few who have made special contributions to mankind, is a testament of her significance, not just musically, but culturally," said Omer Pardillo-Cid, sole executor of the Celia Cruz Estate. "She would have loved it!"
The Celia Cruz Estate and Eventus, the sole representative of the Celia Cruz Estate, continue to jointly develop a comprehensive global strategy to keep her legacy alive and to reach new generations with her timeless music.
About Eventus Eventus is an experiential, sports and entertainment marketing company focused on connecting brands with consumers.

This Sloth is No Slacker
Taught to avoid sloth? Meet 9-year-old Khali (right), a female sloth bear that came from the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle to become a non-breeding companion for the National Zoo's 26-year-old male sloth bear Merlin. Sloth bears are slow-movers, thus their association with laziness or slothfulness, one of the seven-deadly sins. But the sloth bear is no lazy creature, the animals sport a slightly longer snout than other species of bear, and they industriously use it along with their lips to create a vacuum-like seal to suck up insects from holes, cracks and crevices.Khali arrived from Seattle late last year, but has only recently joined Merlin following gradual introductions between the pair. Sloth bears, found in India, Nepal and Sri Lanka, are listed as vulnerable by the World Conservation Union, although there is no solid estimate of how many remain in the wild. In India, where many sloth bears are found, their numbers are declining mainly due to habitat loss, poaching and the use of the animals for an illegal practice known as "bear dancing."In addition to Khali and Merlin, the National Zoo is also home to two other sloth bears, 13-year-old Hana, and her two-year-old cub, Balawat.(Photograph courtesy of Mehgan Murphy, The National Zoo)
