I think I've finally come to grips with what I appreciate out of a development environment/toolset—it's as low impact as possible.
By that I mean that it just augments what I'm attempting to do as a developer. Using Visual Studio is a really boring (and some would say even arduous) task without JetBrains' brilliant ReSharper tool. Likewise, I appreciate the benefits of having the ability to run my unit tests without leaving the code view, or even having to run a build myself. Just right click on the test or fixture, and "Run Tests".
Nowadays I develop Rails stuff almost exclusively on the PowerBook using TextMate (as seems to be the defacto standard for Rails developers). Tests are a cinch to add, and run (either by using the rake task, or Command-R inside TextMate itself).
The reason I bring this up is because I've been trying to get a decent process and tooling setup for developing in a TDD way with Flash. For anyone who's not tried, it's an absolute nightmare. For those who have, I feel your pain and seek your guidance.
Flash just doesn't make a developers life easy, partly because it's always felt a kind of bolt-on addition to make animation easier, but its just so painful trying to accomplish anything. To the point where I've spent a few hours trying to get AsUnit with Flash Authoring working that I've kind of given up. I'm sure it's not AsUnits fault, but Flash just is not a nice place to be.
I'm hoping that someone who's done/doing something similar can help?
Essentially I want a decent way to author some ActionScript classes that I can test with AsUnit. Or perhaps someone could suggest how to get Flash 8 working with AsUnit 2.7 on OSX?
My install seems to try and create an `AllTests.as` file in every possible place, other than my project folder—including OSX's Applications' pseudo-folders. When I create a test class it just seems to hang and Flash asks if I want to stop a long-running script.
Until then, I'm just in awe of how Subversion just works, and how low-impact tooling makes my coding life a more happy one.

June 29, 2007
The Supreme Court has rejected the Bush administration's arguments and have decided to revisit whether Guantanamo Bay detainees can use the civilian court system to challenge their indefinite confinement.
The court is reversing course after already turning down an identical request in April, though two justices indicated that they could have been persuaded otherwise.
The court had no comment for why the suddenly had a change of heart on the issue. But last week, lawyers for the detainees filed a statement from a military officer in which he described the inadequacy of the process the U.S. military has been using for the past four years to classify the detainees as enemy combatants.
The Bush administration says that the new law strips civilian courts of their jurisdiction to hear detainee cases. The decision to grant a rehearing of a previously denied case is rare. Court observers pointed to a 1968 case as the closest parallel to what has happened.

Henrich and Hrdel Reassigned to Johnstown
Submitted by chad on October 16, 2006 - 14:29
Springfield Falcons
A Springfield Falcons press release was issued stating
Adam Henrich
Zbynek Hrdel
have been reassigned to ECHL Johnstown. Henrich was in the Falcons lineup for their season opening, 3-2 win, over the Hartford Wolf Pack on Saturday, October 7, but didn't register a point. The 6-foot-4, 238-pound native of Thornhill, Ontario split the 2005-06 season between Springfield and Johnstown recording 18 goals and 26 assists for 44 points in 63 games shared between the Falcons and Chiefs. Hrdel also was in the Falcons' opening night lineup, but was a healthy scratch for both games against the Norfolk Admirals this past weekend. Hrdel also shared time in both Springfield and Johnstown last season collecting 11 goals and 15 assists for 26 points in 61 total games split between the Falcons and Chiefs.

so my soon to be 4 yr old has decided he would like a pirate themed birthday party this year. problem is i have no idea what to do. we have asked for the kids to dress up, having a pirate ship cake, DH is going to make a mast? and he wants me to make a pinyata(dont know what), they will bash it with rubber swords. just not sure what else. like food wise also. kind of wish i hadnt of asked him what kind of birthday he would like this year now lol

My son is also have a pirate party this year. Nothing too special except that it will be a pirate cake, with pirate decorations and lolly bags.
If you have a look at ebay under PIRATE PARTY you find lots of stuff.
We will also have a find the gold coins. Just buy those chocolate gold coins you can get and hide them around the house. Kids love a treasure hunt! If you don't want to use chocolate buy real gold fake coins.
We will also have a put the patch on the pirate game (instead of pin tail on donkey).
Posted 18 March 2012 - 03:51 PM
Our local spotlight has heaps of pirate themed party stuff - cups, plates, serviettes, etc.
For a cake, it is really easy to make a treasure chest. Bake two bar cakes (think banana bread tins), ice them, put the top one slightly back so it looks open and fill with gold coins, necklaces, sweets, etc.
Here are some more ideas:
Edited for poor grammar and spelling.

I bought wooden pirate cutless cutouts from ebay for $1 each and the boys decorated them. I painted them first then had shiny ribbon, red, black and gold stick on gems and pirate stckers that the boys used to decorate.
Posted 31 March 2012 - 10:43 AM
Google "pirate party printables" for great decorations that you just need to print and cut out. I use this to get inspiration as well as to jazz up a party. You can just find skull and crossbone pictures on google images, print these off on card or stiff paper (or even fabric) and hang as bunting - I'm sure you can also get pirate fabric to sew bunting if you at that way inclined.
Pirate parties are cool!
Eye patches on arrival (or you can have an activity where everyone makes one).
You could also have an arrival activity where everyone decorates their own little treasure chest (bit of gold paint, a few sparklies to stick on etc), and then prizes for the games consist of gold coins, gem-stone trinkets and little skull and cross-bone erases etc so that the kids can add them to their treasure chest - this is then their "lolly bag" so you don't need to do extra.

Treasure hunt!
Easy to make up the pirate map (use yellowy paper, and burn edges when you are done), then hide clues and treasure around your garden, as written on your map
Good way to keep them occupied for about 20 minutes as well.

The most fun thing at a pirate party is a treasure hunt!
I have done a few and I always do them this particular way, even though it is not particularly pirate-ish. I give the youngest child the first clue in an envelope with their name on, inside there is a picture of the location of the next envelope. Each envelope has a child's name on it, so each child get's to open an envelope and be the first to see the next clue - so one clue for each child attending. I usually put a lolly in each envelope. Have locations that are easy to picture, like under the table, under the garden statue, in the letterbox etc. and have the kids charge from one end of the house to the other for each clue. The treasure at the end can be their party bags if you want to do it at the end, or some other treat like cup cakes or jelly's with pirate flags sticking out. We have a toy chest which I emptied out and filled with jelly's and that was the 'treasure chest' at the end of the hunt.
For older kids you could draw a treasure map and rip into pieces with each clue leading to a different piece, then they would have to peice the map together at the end.

Since the major push on the part of VMware with vSphere is to virtualize Tier 1 applications, it is important to understand how the Application Performance Management solutions for virtualized Tier 1 applications is evolving in support of this trend

Data Center Virtualization ...
Virtualization – A Feature of the OS, or a New Platform?
• • 0 Comments
Microsoft and Red Hat has just announced that they have completed the certifications of the cross OS hypervisor agreements that the companies originally announced back in February of 2009. This means that Microsoft now certifies Red Hat Linux guests on Hyper-V and Red Hat certifies certain Windows guests on KVM. Red Hat has an excellent article on its web site that details which version of which products work with which and which provides an excellent FAQ.
Data Center Virtualization ...
VMware vs. Microsoft – Management Stack Strategies
• • 3 Comments
VMware has made it very clear that it views virtualization as the catalyst technology which enables driving complexity and cost out of the data center, and injecting freedom, agility, and choice into the data center. VMware has also made it clear that these benefits from virtualization will only occur if virtualization itself (the hypervisor and the low level hypervisor management tools) are complemented by a layer of management tools that allow applications that are hosted on internal and external clouds to be managing very differently than they have been in the past.
Desktop Virtualization ...
Liquidware Labs Creates a new ROI Path for VDI
• • 1 Comment
LiquidWare Labs has announced a new pricing and packaging option for its StratusSphere platform that was specifically designed for Managed Services Providers (MSP's) who have an existing business managing fat client desktops for large enterprises, and who wish to virtualize all or a part of these desktops. This new offering is called the Managed Virtual Desktop Alliance program, and it is all about helping both the MSP and the MSP's customer benefit from the cost savings associated with moving a physical desktop into a virtualized state. LiquidWare also announced that Perot Systems (recently acquired by Dell) is the first member of the Virtual Desktop Alliance program.
Cloud Computing ...
Performance Monitoring for Cloud Hosted Applications – Time for a Clean Sheet of Paper
• • 3 Comments
Cloud hosted applications require a new approach to applications performance management. An approach that is offered on a SAAS basis, with an easy to install application resident agent, and that focuses upon response time instead of resource utilization is required. New Relic RPM is the first example of such an approach.
Application Virtualization ...
VMware's "No OS" Application Platform Strategy
• • 5 Comments
VMware's SpringSource acquisition will result in VMware directly implementing the SpringSource Java runtimes in a VMware Guest. VMware will also work to allow other open source application frameworks like Ruby on Rails, Python and PHP to run directly in VMware Guests. VMware will provide value added API's to these run time frameworks, that will make deploying and managing applications built to these frameworks and run on VMware easier. This will put pressure on Microsoft to allow .Net to also run in this manner – potentially setting the stage for the dis-intermediation of Windows as an applications platform.
Data Center Virtualization ...
News: CA to Acquire NetQoS, Inc. in $200 Million All-Cash Transaction
• • 0 Comments
Today (see below) CA announced that it is acquiring NetQos. The combination of the previously acquired Cassatt and Wily assets with the NetQos assets now give CA the full set of components needed to field a comprehensive performance management solution for virtual and cloud environments. The only question that remains is whether or not CA will be able to effectively position and sell these solutions into the virtualization marketplace against experience competitors like VizionCore and Veeam who have signficant channel and customer presence in this market.
Application Virtualization ...
Is Desktop Virtualization the Key to an Effective Windows 7 Migration?
• • 5 Comments
Layered operating system, application, personalization, and user data management approaches will be key to the migration to Windows 7 in the enterprise. Vendors like RingCube, MokaFive, Tranxition, Wanova and Unidesk should be investigated along with desktop virtualization initiatives as enterprises migrate to Windows 7.
Performance Management ...
Is the Third Party Market for Virtualization Performance Management Alive or Dead?
• • 0 Comments
Now the VMware is shipping AppSpeed and owns Hyperic, the question has to be asked? Should companies looking for performance and capacity management tools for their VMware environments look just to VMware to meet these needs, or should they also continue to look at third party solutions?

Cull Graphics Quickly with Preview
You're faced with a folder full of images, and you need to sort through them, trashing some number and keeping the rest. For a quick way to do that, select them all, and open them in Preview (in Leopard, at least). You'll get a single window with each graphic as an item in the drawer. Use the arrow keys to move from image to image, and when you see one you want to trash, press Command-Delete to move it from its source folder to the Finder's Trash. (Delete by itself just removes the picture from Preview's drawer.)

A Time-Lapse Journey Through Oregon
Here's an amazing time-lapse video that was made using time-lapse photography shot over six months in the beautiful state of Oregon. This interview quote by Ben Canales gives a glimpse into how much dedication this kind of project requires:
The actual filming takes 2-4 hours to record a good night time-lapse of the stars moving, and then pack up, hike out, and drive home the next day. That is only the work done in the field! Then there are hours and hours of processing, editing, and polishing the final video sequence to get only six seconds of final video.
It is not an exaggeration to say one short, final clip may represent 20-30 hours of planning, driving, hiking, shooting, and processing — all that for mere seconds of video playback. It is a ridiculous labor of love.
Hundreds of hours of work for a four-minute video that has already been viewed over a hundred thousand times. Be sure to watch it full screen and in HD!
Amazing Stop Motion Video Made with a Desk Toy and Google Street View
Address Is Approximate is a beautiful and creative stop-motion video by Tom Jenkins of Theory Films. Here's the one-sentence synopsis:
A lonely desk toy longs for escape from the dark confines of the office, so he takes a cross country road trip to the Pacific Coast in the only way he can – using a toy car and Google Maps Street View.
No CGI was used — all the animation you see in the video was done by hand and captured on a still photograph using a Canon 5D Mark II!
Jaw-Dropping Time-Lapse Shots of Earth
Between August and October of this year, the crew onboard the International Space Station used a Nikon D3S (at high ISOs) to capture photographs of Earth as they zipped around it at 17,000mph. Michael Konig then took the footage and compiled it into this eye-popping time-lapse video showing what our planet looks like from up there.

Beautiful Time-Lapse of Tokyo Set to the Blade Runner Soundtrack
Photographer Samuel Cockedey spent a year photographing the Shinjuku area of Tokyo, Japan using his Canon 5D Mark II, and then created a time-lapse video set to music from the sci-fi film Blade Runner. Titled "Android Dreams", the time-lapse is both a fitting tribute to Blade Runner and a beautiful portrait of Tokyo at night.

Your hair is like the mighty ocean—it can look wavy, it can look choppy, and it will be depressing when it's gone forever. Love your locks with this Groupon.
$99 for a Brazilian Blowout ($250 Value)
During the 90-minute Brazilian blowout treatment, certified stylists prep strands with an antiresidue shampoo. After towel drying, a cuticle-flattening serum coats the hair from root to tip in fortifying proteins. After a blow-dry and flatiron styling, a Brazilian blowout mask seals in newly imbued nutrients. A second blowout with smoothing serum doubly ensures strands against messy frizz or stray Tesla coils.
Some hair-straightening products that claim to be formaldehyde-free include aldehyde compounds, which are similar to the carcinogen formaldehyde. Side effects may include nosebleeds, headaches, vomiting, and respiratory problems, among others. Learn more about the health risks here.
Salon Fusion
Salon Fusion's team of six stylists tends to tresses with luxurious products from Brazilian Blowout, Moroccan Oil, and Aquage. Deft scissor hands shape unruly locks into custom 'dos, lengthen tresses with Babe extensions, and smooth strands with advanced Brazilian blowouts, which boost shine more subtly than a teaspoon of mirror shavings. To complement head-hair services, seasoned techs can also wax away unwanted stubble throughout the body, bronze physiques with Fake Bake spray tans, and enhance facial features with expertly applied makeup.

Man Card Monday
by Slacker And Steve
posted May 12 2014 3:20PM
No matter how manly your man is he has done something to get his man card revoked. Maybe he watched Titanic and cried, or maybe he really liked that pedi you made him get!
Slacker says over the weekend he made a bracelet. His son saw a girl at school with a rubber band bracelet with different colors. He bought a bracelet making kit for his son and daughter to make bracelets. He decided to make one. But that's not where it ends. He picked out charms and letters to make name bracelets. And he is very proud of this craft. He asks what's more manly than being a dad?
Steve says Slacker definitely burned his man card. It should be called a dad card, then. Steve watched a "Let's Flip this House" marathon while they were staying in Vegas. His definitely got burned. He blamed Slacker for drinking Cosmo's that night at the bar in Vegas.
Lil' D said Slacker earned his man card by him being a dad and making the bracelets. That's a great dad. His wife came down the stairs and turned on the TV. It happened to be on HGTV and Dave watched a marathon of Million Dollar Backyards. His man card has been burned.
Why should your man's man card be revoked?

How To Use Microsoft Word 2007
Using Microsoft Word 2007 for the first time can seem overwhelming. This is mainly because of the drastic design changes compared to earlier versions of Microsoft Word. The ribbon feature is a new aspect of Word 2007 that you will probably notice right away. The ribbon is designed to allow quick and easier access to all features of the program from a single area. Follow these steps to get started using Microsoft Word 2007.
- Open Microsoft Word 2007. Click the various labels at the top of the window. Each label will change what options are available in the ribbon below. Familiarize yourself with these different sections. It will help to practice using them so you can remember what options are under each section.
- The Home section provides the most frequently used functions for basic word processing. You will likely use this section the most.
- The file menu is replaced with the Microsoft Office Logo at the top left of the window. Click this circular button to access options such as opening a document, saving, or printing.
- Use the review section to edit a document. This is another section that you will use a lot if you need to make sure that your paper has no errors. Use it when reviewing another person's paper as well. Insert comments or use the track changes function to modify the paper so that the other person can see what changes were made.
- Practice using this program before you need to create a document for work or school. It can be a daunting task to learn the program in a short period of time.

Ambassador Danny Ayalon examines the critical events that shape public opinion and attitudes towards Israel.
Danny Ayalon presents documented facts in the videos "The Truth About....Jewish Refugees from Arab countries; The West Bank; The Peace Process; Jerusalem.
Hasbara Course
We are preparing a detailed course on "hasbara" to give you the facts, figures, techniques and tools to confidently and logically present Israel in the face of blatant anti-semitism and de-legitimization agents. Watch for information.
Kerry, Don't Blame Israel for ISIL
Ambassador Ayalon Explains Kerry's Mistake and why Israel is not Connected to ISIL's Rise
The denial released by the State Department's deputy spokesperson, according to which Secretary Kerry did not connect between Israel and the growth of ISIL was a standard and expected diplomatic move. However, the denial is not enough to fix the immense damage caused by Kerry's words from this past Thursday. While the junior spokesperson's denial was laconic and brief, Kerry's words were spoken to the cameras, and furthermore, his words were read off paper, after being carefully formulated and written with deliberate forethought.
If Kerry the politician wanted to curry favor with the large audience which filled the event hall at the top floor of the State Department building in Washington, he succeeded. This crowd was comprised of leaders of the Muslim community in the United States, who all nodded in agreement as Kerry boasted on the pulpit.
His words may have had a diplomatic goal, raising support and sympathy from Muslim and Arab states for the military moves made by the Americans against Islamist radicals in the Middle East. So far, the US-led coalition forces have failed to stop the spread of ISIL in the Middle East or of the Al-Qaeda offshoots in the heart of Africa. According to the estimates of US military experts, it will be impossible to defeat ISIL without the use of ground forces, which will lead to an unavoidable increase in the number of casualties among the civilian populace.
Or maybe Secretary Kerry, who cast all his hopes, as well as his reputation, on solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, wanted to increase the pressure on Israel. Kerry fears that the political leadership in Israel is taking advantage of the world's focus on ISIL in order to avoid a diplomatic process with the Palestinians.
Whether he meant to or not, Kerry linked the ISIL terror and radical Islam in the Middle East to Israel and the Palestinian problem, completely ignoring the true cause of violence and terror in the Middle East and beyond, which is a result of a radical Islamist ideology. The Islamist terror groups take advantage of the despair in Arab society, which suffers under backward dictatorial regimes who do not allow hope for a better future.
Providing a stage for such a twist of reality is dangerous as well as harmful, because it provides a boost for ISIL terror and supplies leaders of the region with an excuse with which to avoid true, painful reforms. If Kerry meant to pressure Israel to be more flexible when dealing with the Palestinians, in order to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough, the opposite is true, and his words merely strengthen the Palestinians' tough and uncompromising positions.
Precisely in front of the leaders of the Muslim community in the United States, Kerry should have repeated the words of his President, who stated last month at the United Nations General Assembly: "The situation in Iraq and Syria and Libya should cure anybody of the illusion that the Arab-Israeli conflict is the main source of problems in the region".

Believest thou this? Can you believe it? Do you? Believe it or not.... Jesus did not come into this world to take life from you.... He didn't come to see to it that your life could not be lived abundantly (and abundantly means more than just the financial.... Do you suffer a disease? Are you broken in any way? Does it diminish the quality of your life here?).... He has never taught anyone anything by causing them to suffer....
Jesus always restored.... Always healed....
Jer 1:10 KJV
See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.
I am well aware of the fact that this SHOOT'N is going to step on some toes.... It is my hope that some of you are like me.... And will welcome the steppin'.... Because I feel this message deep in my bones.... I was reading Jeremiah this morning.... And I knew last night or before that I was to write
I've come to realize, to an even greater degree than I previously realized, that for a long time now, I've been making a lot of compromises that I have absolutely NO business making. I now realize more than ever before that nothing but bad can possibly come from this. ALL I've seen come from this is bad.
I used to pray, "God, give me what I think is best for me". Now I pray, "God, Your will be done, let your light shine through me, break me if you must, just be glorified in me".
Christians, God made it about you the day He sent His Son Jesus Christ to be beaten and crucified for your sins; it's not about you anymore, it's about Him. It's time to honor our holy God and be about our Father's business.
'An Interlude to Think'
What James is trying to teach his readers is that they must get their minds off themselves and focus on the main point, it is that their life is in God's hands and they must seek His guidance and forgiveness for their sins. It sounds trite, but over the last two and a half chapters, chapters 2 to 4, James has pointed out some serious problems that are disturbing to any honest reader. So many in the fellowship were in open revolt and following their own desires.

But if you don't ensure genuine common interest with your artists and audiences you could face a public relations nightmare. Are you ready for young audiences? (locked) Every arts organisation says they want young audiences. But you should be careful what you wish for. Artists versus arts workers Arts managers are an important part of the sector but they are kidding themselves if they think they are artists. The essential skills of a great producer (Premium locked content) Can't act, can't sing, can raise money? Sorry but that is not the recipe for a great producer. ArtsHub Thursday 5 April, 2012 Art auction house Sotheby's is launching a new gallery in Hong Kong The launch of Sotheby's Hong Kong art gallery couldn't have come at a better time. According to recent data from the European Art Foundation, China currently holds the largest art market in the world, and the new gallery hopes to expand on this widespread art appreciation. Hong Kong was the chosen location for the gallery launch because Chinese law currently prevents foreign auction houses from selling on China's mainland. Sotheby's has high hopes that the gallery will help to win over Chinese collectors, a very strong force within the art auction world, and expand their appreciation of Western art. The company has invested $7.2 million into the project, which is expected to open in May in Hong Kong's Admiralty business district. According to The Wall Street Journal, the opening of the new gallery will also allow Sotheby's to host a greater number of art auctions in the country. "As Chinese become more open to the West, the physical and cultural borders will no doubt break down and create a strong potential for the appreciation of Western art," chief executive of Sotheby's Asia Kevin Ching said (The Wall Street Journal). Despite its big name, Sotheby's may find competition in Christie's International PLC, a gallery which opened its own doors two years ago in Hong Kong, and has since expanded to include previews of expensive art works and jewelry. Christie's also has high hopes for its future, and is currently considering forging partnerships with universities in China's mainland, a fitting partnership for a company who already enrolls 40 students in three-day courses focusing on Chinese modern art and the history of ceramics. Despite their rivalry and their differences, both art houses hope that their galleries will help to widen the appreciation of Western art amongst Chinese art buyers, who are known for being more interested in Chinese artists than any others. To help them achieve this goal, both Sotheby's and Christie's have created Asian advisory boards who will work towards strengthening the ties between the companies and Asian art collectors. Last year, Chinese art collector's efforts led scroll painter Zhang Daqian to be crowned the world's top auction earner, earning him $506.7 million in revenue. This huge total is way above the $325 million earned by Western artists such as Andy Warhol. It appears both companies are well on their way to achieving their goals, with 2011 statistics indicating that Chinese collectors accounted for a fifth of Christie's global sales, whilst Sotheby's Asian sales jumped 47% from 2010.
