" Manufacturer: Disney / Suitable for: Mobile Phone / Case Type: Sock "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I know the Disney Tinkerbell Mobile Sock shown here, is a somewhat girly item to have as a mobile phone protector. Its not perhaps to everyones tastes but as its been so useful and easy to pop over my mobile to keep it protected its worth talking about. I have to say I was rather excited when I got my hands on it and thats why I asked for it to be added as a product here.
I happened upon this by chance in a local phone accessory store and after admiring its cuteness I decided to get it, well who could resist? It was not too expensive either considering it is a real Disney product, as I paid just £3.60 for it at the time. It came in two colours, with a choice of pink or black as the main colour which were both nice.
My Disney Tinkerbell Mobile Sock is simple to use but can work rather well. All you need to do is remove it from the card hang tag it comes on and slip your mobile phone into it. Easy peasy. The hang tag is simply made with a piccy of Tinkerbell in her usual green toned outfit on the front. I thought the fact that it wasn't over packed was a good thing as it didn't need more than that.
The hang label stated it was a Disney Mobile Phone and MP3 Player compatible product and I feel thats a good description of what the product can be used for. I like the way its so light and easy to use. The fit is good and there is plenty of stretch if needed, as its made from a regular sock type material. Its something that can be washed if needed, which I tend to do by hand due to the nice sparkly diamante detailing on the sock.
The design of the Disney Tinkerbell Mobile Sock is very attractive. My phone sock is in the same black colourway shown here. One side of the sock has Tinkerbell resting her head side ways, surrounded by lots of pretty swirly bits and pieces. Underneath her name is written out in full in a pretty type style and the small official Disney logo can easily be seen.
The other side of the sock has Tinkerbell shown amongst the flowers and swirls, with little bits of sparkle here and there and the word Tink shown in sparkly diamante which looks very pretty. The pink toned theme of the outlined designs is reflected with the pink toned and slightly scalloped shaped top edge which I think sets it off very nicely.
To give the Disney Tinkerbell Mobile Sock a product rating I feel it ought to get 5 stars. Its not only very attractive to the eye, but it also does a great job of protecting your phone from knocks and scratches. It takes just a second or so to take your phone out of the mobile sock to answer a call as and when needed. Its just as quick to put your phone back too.
Its very easy to use and store and can be washed if needed. I feel it works very well and would recommend it as a nice gift or as something for yourself. Having seen the pink version too, I feel that it is also nice, but the black version has a slight edge as it has a more dramatic look to it.

diced sun-dried tomatoes, oil reserved
1 (4 ounce) package
crumbled feta cheese
1 tablespoon

I used diced tomatoes instead of sun-dried and added some chicken to it to make it a whole one dish meal. I also added chopped up artichoke hearts, onions, and sweet peppers. Great and even better the next day cold. Thanks for sharing.
Pretty good and very easy. I used whole wheat couscous, and didn't have sundried tomatoes (although i'm sure they would be awesome in this recipe). I just used some fresh tomato, and then added oregano and basil, along with a little EVOO. Will definitely be making this fast dish again.

I chopped an equivalent amount of peppercinis instead of bell pepper(food allergy), very good and a little spicy.

In an earlier post, I showed you how to integrate Hibernate with Spring using the annotation oriented persistence. For those still interested in the standard way I outline how you can accomplish that below. The key to the standard way is to use a Hibernate org.hibernate.SessionFactory for all access to the database through the domain objects. The Java configuration for the SessionFactory is shown below. Java Code: package com.acme.springexamples.car.dao.config;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
package com.acme.springexamples.car.dao.config;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Value;
If you are concern you that DispatcherServlet will be handling static content requests, Spring has features that can help you to deal with this. Springs mvc namespace includes a <mvc:resources> element that handles requests for static content for you. In the following example, I show you how you can create an xml file that the DispatcherServlet can use to create an application context. Java Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
Updated 11-30-2011 at 01:59 PM by Spring Framework
Spring MVCs key component is the DispatcherServlet. This servlet that functions as Spring MVCs front controller. Like any servlet, DispatcherServlet must be configured in the web applications web.xml file. If you need to setup the Dispatcher Servlet it is relatively straightforward. Below is what needs to be added to the web.xml file. Java Code: <servlet>
There are a number of DataSource connection pool implementations provided by different vendors as well as projects like C3PO and Apache Commons DBCP providing popular open-source options. It is easy to switch between different data source implementations, because of the common DataSource interface. Spring provides a convenient data source implementations as well but it is not considered as powerful as the vendor or open source implementations. The simplest one is org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerD ataSource,
Custom XML namespaces were introduced in Spring 2.0. Similar to Java packages, custom namespaces make it possible to define components without concern of colliding with other named components. Spring has already some predefined namespaces such as jee, aop, util, as well as others. Custom namespaces are handled using the NamespaceHandlerSupport class that generates metadata to be consumed by the Spring framework. This metadata is processed by parser classes that are also supplied by a component developer.
In Spring AOP, you can use what is called an introduction (a special type of advice) that enables your objects to implement an interface dynamically, by providing the implementation class for that interface. This behavior can be multiplied to give the impression of multiple inheritance to your beans. To define an introduction, use the @DeclareParents annotation, which gives matching types a new parent. Java Code: package com.acme.springexamples.derivautos;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect;
package com.acme.springexamples.derivautos;
import org.aspectj.lang.annotation.Aspect;
Spring offers a number of options for configuring a data sources via data source beans. These sources include the following: Data sources that use JNDIData sources that use JDBC driversData sources that pool connections
There is significant differences in the features available depending on what you are trying to do. In this tip, I will outline how to configure different data sources and what they are best used for.
If you are looking to do really robust
As Spring has grown so has the need to configure more and more components leading to the xml configuration files growing larger and larger. In order to address this issue, the Java configuration project was started as a standalone project at SpringSource and developed over the years. It was finally integrated into the core Spring framework in version 3.0. Now you are able to use a powerful ApplicationContext configuration abstraction that has the same level of isolation as its XML cousin. In this
Often it is necessary for an application to be able to support several languages in order to address the requirements of customers located in different countries. For this java has support for what is called internationalization (i18n) that allows allows for an application to resolve text messages for different locales. The means of doing this in Java is to use what is called a ResourceBundle. These are property files that contain a key/message pair and have a special naming convention for the file
Since its appearance in Java 5, annotations has helped to simplify the configuration of application through component scanning. This removes the need for XML bean tags in many cases. Classes annotated as component stereotypes including the following: @Service, @Controller, @Configuration, @Component, @Repository as well as the JSR-330 annotations, such as @Named are included in the auto-scan default filter. Once auto-detected, these components become Spring beans and are automatically placed
In our previous tip, I gave an introduction to Springs persistence technology agnostic approach to data access. In this tip, we will show you how to use Spring with one of the most popular persistence technologies, Hibernate. Hibernate is an open source persistence framework that is one of the most successful persistence frameworks in the developer community. The reason for this is that it is a full featured object relational mapping (ORM) tool. It provides all the features youd expect from a
Netbeans 6.1 is available now. There are many new and improved in NetBeans 6.x. In this post, I will list the newly added and improved features.

SMS stands for Short Messaging Service and it is very common in mobile communication. J2ME provides an API for SMS which makes messaging very easy.
I will write a MIDlet to show how to create a messaging system using javax.wireless.messaging.
First step is to import all the required APIs: Java Code: import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import javax.microedition.io.*;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.wireless.messaging.*;
import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
import javax.microedition.io.*;
import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
import javax.wireless.messaging.*;
In this post, I will introduce you to the MIDlet suite.
I assume that you people have worked with Eclipse. In Eclipse, you create projects and all the contents of the project are placed in the project folder. It is an approach for managing the work.
MIDlet suite is very much like a standard Java project in Eclipse. Please note that it's not a requirement to place MIDlets inside a Java Archive (JAR) file, but JAR files provide the most common means of distributing MIDP
The subject topic is very interesting and a lot of people have asked me about this. It is just a matter of knowing how this works. I am sure you will find it very interesting.
MIDlets are programmed using Java Development environments like Eclipse, JBuilder,Netbeans or Sun Java wireless Toolkit. Once coded, they are build and tested on emulators. When all the tests are passed, you want to finally deploy it to your mobile device to see how it works in real world scenerio.
This post contains an introduction to Entity Beans.
An entity beans are used to represent a business object in a persistent storage mechanism for example: customers, orders, products, employees etc. We normally refer persistent storage mechanism as a relational database. Normally, each entity bean has an underlying table in a relational database. Please note that each instance of the bean corresponds to a row in that table.
Some people mix Entity beans with session
In the post, I will write about how to accessing a bean in EJB.
Accessing deployed beans is simple. First write the the client code and set up JNDI environment settings for the client. It can be done via a JNDI properties file. Now you have to set the class path for the client and add the following file locations to it:
jboss-client.jar, jnp-client.jar, EJB interfaces, and the directory where the JNDI properties file is stored
Remember, two JNDI settings
Talking about J2EE application servers, JBOSS is a popular choice. The reason is that JBOSS is open-source EJB solution with lot of impressive features that are missing in Weblogic, WebSphere, and the other big players.
Some of the interesting features provided by JBOSS are:
- enterprise-class security
- transaction support
- resource management
- load balancing
- clustering
- database connection pooling
- JavaMail support
RMS is a database (flat file) which MIDlets can use to persist data. In this post, I will introduce the audience with RMS.
The device platform maintains the integrity of the MIDlet's record stores throughout the normal use. The reboots, battery changes, etc. wont affect the RMS. An interesting question developers ask is, where is this Record Store created? It is created at platformdependent location, like nonvolatile device memory, and is not directly exposed to the MIDlets.
javax.microedition.lcdui provides TextField and TextBox which are sometimes confusing. Both are to allow the user to enter text, but question arises, when to use which one? In this post, I will try to address this issue.
Let me first explain TextField (javax.microedition.lcdui.TextField). This class inherits from javax.microedition.lcdui.Item, so you should know that its an item that can be placed on a form. To create an instance of TextField, we use the TextField constructor:
Maven is a software project management tool, based on project object model. It aims at reducing the load of developer by making in software build process simple and faster.
Following are worth mentioning features of Maven:
- Provides a uniform build system
- Provides quality project information
- Provides guidelines for best practices development
- Allows transparent migration to new features
When to use Maven is an interesting question.
XML Pull Parsing makes parsing XML documents easier and efficient. This post introduces this API.
You may get the required API from http://www.xmlpull.org/.
Java docs are available at: http://www.xmlpull.org/v1/doc/api/or...ullParser.html
Let me present an example of parsing XML using XML Pull Parsing. Java Code: public class SimpleXmlPullApp
public static void main (String args[])
public class SimpleXmlPullApp
public static void main (String args[])
JSR 75 specifies 2 optional packages for mobile devices. I will be talking about these in the next few posts.
The two provided packages are: Java Code: javax.microedition.io.file
PIM stands for personal information and it contains following information:
- contact list
- todo list

If you want to access these from a J2ME application, then javax.microedition.pim is to be used.
Subversion is a centralized system for sharing information. It comprises of a repository, which is a central store of data. The repository stores information in the form of a file system. Clients can connect to this repository, and can read or write to these files. When a client writes data, it actually makes the information available to others; and when a client reads the data, it actually receives information from others. Its a typical client server system which uses version model.
Consider that you are working on a large/medium size Java project in teams. This is an ideal scenario for using Subversion to distribute and maintain source code. Good news is that you can use integrate your source code with Subversion within Eclipse environment.
An Eclipse plugin called Subclipse is to be used for integrating source code with Subversion within Eclipse environment. You may download Subclipse from: http://subclipse.tigris.org/download.html
This post is all about reading and writing text files on mobile device.
In order to write files on the mobile device, you need com.motorola.file.writeaccess. If your application has that permission, you can write files easily using the following code. Java Code: FileConnection sc = (FileConnection)Connector.open("file:///phone/tmp.txt");
OutputStream os = sc.openOutputStream();
os.write(("text to go into the file").getBytes());
FileConnection sc = (FileConnection)Connector.open("file:///phone/tmp.txt");
OutputStream os = sc.openOutputStream();
os.write(("text to go into the file").getBytes());
This post presents a snippet for sending short text messages from J2Me applications.
The com.sun.midp.io.j2me.sms package provides an API for the Short Message Service Messaging system and allows MIDlet to access SMS functionality on a GSM mobile device. You need javax.wireless.messaging.sms.send premission to send SMS messages from your J2ME application. The sample code is presented below: Java Code: sender = (MessageConnection)Connector.open("sms://");
sender = (MessageConnection)Connector.open("sms://");
This post presents miscellaneous tasks that you can do in your J2ME application.
Firstly, how to get GPS location. javax.microedition.location.Location provides support for this. Review the snippet below: Java Code: LocationProvider loc = LocationProvider.getInstance(null);
Location location = loc.getLocation(60*3);
String lat = location.getQualifiedCoordinates().getLatitude();
String lon = location.getQualifiedCoordinates().getLongitude();
LocationProvider loc = LocationProvider.getInstance(null);
Location location = loc.getLocation(60*3);
String lat = location.getQualifiedCoordinates().getLatitude();
String lon = location.getQualifiedCoordinates().getLongitude();
MIDP provides a standard run-time environment that allows new applications and services to be deployed dynamically on end-user devices like cellular phones and pagers. The MIDP is built upon CLDC (Connected Limited Device Configuration).
MIDP is an industry-standard profile for mobile devices and it is not dependent on a specific vendor. It is a provides foundation for mobile application development. MIDP contains following 3 core CLDC packages:
If you specify the PATH and the CLASSPATH type references using any of this, that is ":" and ";" as a separator characters, Ant can convert the separator to the correct character of the operating system in the use.
A nested element can be used wherever path like values need to be specified. See the example below. Java Code: <classpath>
<pathelement path="${classpath}"></pathelement>
<pathelement location="lib/helper.jar"></pathelement>
<pathelement path="${classpath}"></pathelement>
<pathelement location="lib/helper.jar"></pathelement>

If I could see this live, I would love it. I don't listen to much recorded music at all, and when I do it tends to be old rock from my youth.
We rented a car once and there was a CD left in the player, we turned it on and discovered this. This is not a style I would have ever chosen, and yet this has become one of my favorite songs. The lyrics are in the description field. The message is pretty interesting - enjoy!

Berthoud Recorder
"Gran Torino"
Director: Clint Eastwood
Starring: Clint Eastwood, Bee Vang, Ahney Her, Christopher Carley
Screenwriters: Nick Schenk, Dave Johannson
MPAA Rating: R
Reviewer's Rating: 3 ½ out of 5 stars
First, a warning: the majority of the acting in "Gran Torino" is absolutely horrendous. Some of the worst in any major film. Luckily, Clint Eastwood balances out his less talented cast with a beautiful performance.
"Gran Torino" is the story of an old man who has lost the only person with whom he's ever truly connected. Not even his distant sons can offer real comfort. Eastwood plays grizzled veteran Walt Kowaski, who is unwilling to move out of his old neighborhood, recently overrun by Hmong and Mexican immigrants.
An unlikely scenario leads him to get close to his Hmong neighbors, particularly the daughter Sue (Her) and son Thao (Vang.) Walt notices the gang tensions in the neighborhood and laments that Sue and Thao are doomed if the violence does not stop.
The violence itself is frightening. Sue and Thao have one particularly vicious cousin trying to force Thao into the local Hmong gang. There is also the constant threat of violence against Sue, and one scene in the film gives the audience a rather unsettling representation of said threat.
Through the majority of the film, Walt has an uncanny knack for being in the exact right place at the right time. Early in the movie, we see Walt through his neighbors' eyes, as the local Hmong women come together to honor him as a hero.
This is the main plotline of the film, but sometimes it's difficult to figure out the direction in which Eastwood is heading. He tries to fit a lot of turns into the movie, and they do not all run smoothly. Many of the storylines jump around, and some never do get resolved. But for the most part, the viewer gets the point.
Eastwood is nothing short of amazing in the film. He plays a stereotypically crotchety old man flawlessly, even while yelling "get off my lawn!" His character tries to be the father Thao never had, as well as the father he never was to his own boys. A particularly good scene involves a barber shop, the surly barber and an unsuspecting Thao. Walt declares that Thao must learn how to talk like a man. If you are offended by colorful language, you might want to skip this one.
"Gran Torino" has the ending that you might expect, though the resolution itself is a bit surprising. By the finish, the viewer should have enough love for Walt to bring a few tears to the eyes. Though some technical aspects of the film are weak, and most of the actors could use a few more years of training, "Gran Torino" is absolutely worth the price of admission.

Parking measures could improve village's roads
Posted: January 08, 2014|
RESIDENTS of Abbots Bromley are being urged to make their voice heard in a consultation on parking problems.
The consultation, launched by Staffordshire County Council to tackle parking issues in the village, is still up for consideration and will be open for residents to have their say until January 17 at the library in Anson Street, Rugeley.
The idea of painting in double yellow lines near junctions was first raised by parish councillors some two years ago.
Lack of residential parking has continued to make driving in the village difficult since then.
A spokesman for Staffordshire County Council said: "The essence of the plans are to keep the town flowing.
"Following requests from police and parish councillors we have put forward proposals to install double yellow lines in Goose Lane and Church Lane at the junctions where people are parking badly.
"Now we are hoping for resident feedback, I know that many people have made their voices heard already and we are inviting everyone who hasn't done so to have their say.
"If there is no strong objection the plans are likely to go ahead."
Councillor Simon Tagg, cabinet member for transport and connected county with Staffordshire County Council said: "The proposals were put out for public consultation as from December 20 and are still running until January 17.
"Anyone wishing to raise an objection to the proposals can do so until that date.
"During this period plans are available for viewing either at the Library in Anson Street, Rugeley or on the Staffordshire County Council website.
"This has also been advertised with street notices posted at all the junctions included within the proposals.
"Where residents have concerns over parked vehicles causing an obstruction or danger then they need to contact their local councillor, who will be able to raise it on their behalf for consideration by the Joint Parking Committee where it will be prioritised along with all other requests received.
"Residents may also wish to consider their own off street parking provision wherever it is possible."
The chairman of the parish council in Abbots Bromley has said that the consultation is a 'major step forward' for the village.
Roger Jarman, chairman of Abbots Bromley Parish Council said: "The parish council actually made the original request for double yellow lines to be added throughout the village as we could see no other way forward to improve the parking problems.
"The junctions had become dangerous.
"It's a major step forward for us the fact they are holding a meeting with residents and we are very happy with the fact they have started consulting."
The launch of the formal consultation follows residents' concerns at 'illegal' parking near junctions in the village.
Nathan Parker said: "Almost every morning there are one, perhaps two, buses parked at the bottom of Schoolhouse Road, blocking the view of people trying to get out.
"I believe they are parked illegally as they need to be at least 10 metres from the junction with reference to the Highway Code."
A resident of Abbots Bromley, who does not wish to be named said: "It's the people who park their cars on the blind corner by the Goat that need to sort themselves out.
"If they weren't parked there, then there wouldn't be a problem for the drivers.
"It's an accident waiting to happen."

Bosh Ready To Start Or Come Off The Bench

Miami Heat
OKLAHOMA CITY (CBSMiami) – The question heading into the Eastern Conference finals for the Miami Heat was would Chris Bosh play? Heading into the NBA Finals, the only question left for the Heat is will he start or come off the bench?
Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra isn't giving any indications on what his thinking will be with Bosh in the NBA Finals. Bosh was a starter during the regular season, but after he suffered an injury in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals; he missed the next nine straight games.
Once Bosh was ready to come back into the lineup, Spoelstra decided to bring him off the bench for Game 5 and Game 6. Going into Game 7, the thinking was Bosh would be reinserted into the starting lineup, but he again came off the bench.
In Game 7 of the Eastern Conference finals, Bosh was the catalyst Miami was missing without him in the lineup. He scored 19 points and hit three 3-point shots in the game, including a game-changing 3-pointer from the corner with about 6 minutes to go in the fourth quarter.
"I'll consider everything by tomorrow (Tuesday) night," Spoelstra said Monday. "I think he can handle more minutes. We'll have to see. He was able to handle the 31 minutes. He had to come out a couple of times because of wind, but I think each game we'll get better."
Regardless of what his role will be, for his part, Bosh is ready to do whatever it takes to help the team climb the final mountain.
"Like I've been saying the past week, it really doesn't matter to me," Bosh said. "I just want to be out there and we want to give ourselves the best chance to win. So, whatever that means, that's what's going to work out for me and the team."

Craniosacral Therapist Certification
To help our readers better understand the requirements for state licensure and national certification in craniosacral bodywork, Allied Health World answers some of the more frequently asked questions people have about acquiring and retaining a license to practice craniosacral therapy on both a state and national level:
What license is needed to work as a craniosacral therapist?
Like many forms of complimentary and alternative massage and bodywork, there is no licensing body specific to craniosacral therapy. However, most states include the practice of all forms of massage therapy and bodywork under one common regulating
What is required to maintain state licensure in craniosacral therapy?
Only a few states have continuing education requirements for maintaining state licensure, and these requirements are typically minimal. To remain licensed to practice craniosacral therapy, most states only require that practitioners submit an online application for license renewal along with a fee that is typically less than $200.
Is there an option for national craniosacral therapy certification?
An organization called the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCBTMB) provides national certification that satisfies the requirements for licensure enforced by most states. The NCBTMB administers an exam called the National Certification Examination for Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork (NCETMB). Completing a program through an accredited school and successfully completing the NCETMB exam will earn graduates the NCTMB credential, which stands for Nationally Certified in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork.
NCTMB craniosacral therapy certification must be renewed every four years, but it isn't particularly difficult to meet the requirements for doing so. Craniosacral therapists who wish to retain the NCTMB credential are expected to complete 200 hours of craniosacral therapy in practice, or an equivalent number of house spent in continuing education during each four-year period between NCTMB certification renewals. By virtue of operating a bodywork practice, most craniosacral therapists meet this requirement for 200 hours of clinical practice without the need to participate in additional continuing education.

Texas wine industry is booming
ORANGE - by Lauren Huet
Here's an excuse to have a glass of wine, it's Texas Wine Month. According to the Texas Wine and Grape Growers Association, the booming Texas wine industry contributes 1.83 billion dollars to the state of Texas.
Jim Mathews manages his father-in-law's vineyard and winery in Orange, Texas. It's called the Piney Woods Country Winery and Vineyard. Alfred J. Flies, with the help of his son-in-law, Mathews, began planting the vineyard in 1985. They opened for business in 1987.
Mathews said they have seen the wine industry take off in Texas.
"We ship all over the United States, not just in Texas," said Mathews. "In fact, most of our shipping we do out of the state."
Texas is now the fifth largest wine producing state.
"Texas, with the increased amount of wineries and vineyards, has just about caught up, as far as I know, with New York and California in wine production," said Mathews. "The difference is, most Texas wine is consumed by Texans. We'll drink what we can and sell the rest."
When Flies and Mathews started Piney Woods Country Winery in 1987, they were the 14th winery in Texas. Now Texas has more than 270 wineries.
"It has been such a growing industry and I think it's going to continue that way because more and more people are getting into growing," said Mathews.
Mathews and his father-in-law grow white and red Muscadines, a grape that grows wild in Southeast Texas.
"We grow the white which is called Magnolia, and the red which is called Noble-- Noble being a little sweeter," said Mathews. "Most of our wines are made from the red. Most of our wines are very sweet. We do have a couple of dry wines, but from experience, most of the people in this area like sweet wines."
He said Muscadines are unique.
"It's a litle different because Muscadines have a different taste, a very distinctive taste, and a lot of people like that," said Mathews.
A taste that won the Piney Woods Country Winery and Vineyard the award for "Top Texas Wine 2009."
"When you have the awards or the competitions, a lot of people taste them and say, 'Well where does this come from?' And they're amazed," said Mathews. "Amazed, because you know, in Southeast Texas?"
Mathews said when more people discover Muscadine wines, the grapes are going to become more popular.
"I can almost guarantee, you taste them and you're going to like them," said Mathews. "I've had people come in and say, 'I don't like wines at all.' They'll leave with a bottle of wine, because they find something they like, because our wines are different."
Mathews encourages people to have a glass because "it's very healthy."
"They've discovered that red Muscadines are 9 times better for you," Mathews said. "A lot of antioxidants. Keeps your blood flowing, and it's really good for your heart."

.htaccess functionality does not work

.htaccess functionality does not work
I am running ISPconfig on Suse Linux 10.1 with three virtual hosts setup to share the same ip. Everything is working very well, except the .htaccess functionality in any of the sites. Whenever I try to use a PHP script that uses .htaccess file in its directory, I get a 500 internal server error. No matter which site.
I have browsed the forum, and researched this issue. Following is my error log file from one of the sites:
[Wed Mar 07 11:41:40 2007] [alert] [client 142.xx.xx.xxx] /srv/www/web7/web/blogs/.htaccess: Options not allowed
I believe that the issue is about .htaccess not being allowed globally or something. Following is an excerpt from my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file:
<Directory /srv/www/*/web>
Options +Includes -Indexes
AllowOverride None
AllowOverride Indexes AuthConfig Limit FileInfo
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
Deny from all
In the above I have tried changing "AllowOverride None" to "AllowOverride All" and restarted apache, but it makes no difference
Please let me know if you want to see my /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf file, it currently does not have any <Directory> </Directory> sections.
Can you please point me in the right direction.. is there a howto telling how to get the .htaccess functionality working on ISPConfig. Please let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks in advance

My cousin is a huge Harry Potter geek, her husband Lord of the Rings and they both like the Legend of Zelda. She is having a girl and her shower is going to be decorated traditionally, with pink, diapers, bows, etc. What is a decent way to combine the two on the cake so it doesn't look hokey? I have some ideas for the cake but am not sure how to bring the two together on the cake. It will probably be a dreaded sheet cake, should I mix them or do one side geek, the other traditional. . . ? I think her friends giving the shower want more traditional but she's been good with saying do whatever, we are grateful for (free) cake.

Summer Youth Programming
School's out, but that doesn't mean you have to stop learning about the 4 Rs:
- Reduce
- Reuse
- Recycle
- Rot
CSWD offers lots of games, skits, songs and other activities to enliven your summer program and teach kids about how to manage their own waste footprint. Whether you're a daycare staffer, camp leader, scout troop mentor or just a parent with a bunch of bored neighborhood kids, we want to hear from you!
Schools and Youth Outreach Coordinator Rhonda Mace will lead your camp, troop or other youth group in learning about the bugs, microbes and worms that help us make compost. He'll sing the "Worm Bin Shuffle" and other recycling songs with toddlers. He'll even help you build a mini-landfill or win at Sort Station Swish! Let your imagination run wild and call or email the CSWD School Outreach Coordinator to start planning a great summer program. Follow our summer adventures all season long on our Schools and Youth Facebook page, where you can also share your own adventures, questions and tips with the community.
So, what can we do for your group?
Tours: See what happens to what you throw away firsthand at our recycling sort facility, our compost-making operation and at one of our Drop-Off Centers, where items that are going to a variety of places are collected and sent on their way.
Build a mini landfill (K-25): Using old milk jugs, cans, paper, dirt, and a few other household items, we can build "mini landfills" and monitor what happens to our waste when it's placed in the trash can.
Paper making: (all ages) Collect old newspaper, drawing paper, and junk mail. Learn about how recycling works and then make some homemade paper out of your paper scraps.
Song hour (toddler-grade 3): Live music with original and cover songs related to recycling, compost, and trash. Sing Jack Johnson's "The 3Rs," CSWD's own "Worm Bin Shuffle" and other great environmental songs.
Run-around games with a resource twist (all ages): Capture the Flag becomes "Landfill Wars" and Skeeball becomes "Sort Station Swish." Kids run around as they play interactive games that get them thinking about the waste they create.
Reuse art (all ages): CSWD will provide some materials and camps are encouraged to collect their own (such as old CDs, tree ornaments, and broken umbrellas). Kids spend an hour creating scenes, sculptures, or whatever else their imaginations conjure, and then we discuss their creations.
Build an on-site compost pile (grade 5 and up): We'll find a good space, collect materials, and build a compost pile. During construction we'll talk about what composting is and how to get the recipe just right. Then campers can use the pile all summer and we can take temperature readings, turn the piles, and talk about bugs!
Movie screenings (grade 5 and up): CSWD offers several movies that talk about reducing, reusing, and recycling. We'll help set up a screening for your camp and have a discussion afterwards. These screenings may take two days, depending on time. Movies include Trashed, Bag It, and Dirt! The Movie.
Your idea here: We'll help you design an activity or presentation that fits your group's needs. Free downloadable activities, links to videos and other media are available as well on our Learning Tools Page.
Technical assistance to help you recycle and compost better.
CSWD provides an array of expertise, programs, and information to help summer programs improve their sustainability efforts.
Sustainability assessment: CSWD can help programs interested in improving their current trash, recycling, and composting programs by conducting a waste audit that can result in facility-wide improvements.
Recycling and compost bins: Summer programs in Chittenden County are eligible to receive FREE recycling and compost bins. Just ask!
Posters: Customizable and available to Chittenden County summer programs FREE of charge to help promote recycling, composting, and land-filling responsibly.
Educational tabling: CSWD can set up a table at your meeting, convention, or farmer's market and provide resources to improve composting and recycling at your event.
Staff training: Need a refresher on what's recyclable and compostable? CSWD can provide training for camp staff so they can set good examples for kids as they improve their own sustainability efforts.

FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) — Justin Morneau has taken the field with his Minnesota Twins teammates for the first time since sustaining a concussion in July.
Morneau says he "felt good" after batting practice and playing long toss during an informal workout Tuesday. But he wasn't about to proclaim himself 100 percent. Morneau said he wanted to wait and see how he felt later in the day, which is usually when the symptoms from his concussion resurface.
Morneau says it was fun to get back on the field with his teammates and he was heartened by the applause he got from fans when he stepped to the plate.
He says he will wear sunglasses throughout spring training in hopes of limiting the harmful effects bright sun can have on a person who has suffered a concussion.

Make 999,999 Simoleans in an hour
Heres what you will need: The Sim that you regularly play, 1 Sim you can create just for this, and one Sim you can delete later.
1. Create a new Sim and move them into any lot (make sure there is no one else living with this Sim)
2.Create another Sim but don't move them anywhere, just leave them in the Real Estate Office
3. Play the first Sim that you made and try to meet the second one so you can invite them over to your lot. (you should be able to meet them at the Town Square)
4. Once you get the second Sim to your house, become best friends with them so you can move them in. (fastest way is on the garden swing)
5. Ask them to move in and you will get an extra 20,000 Simoleans. Ask them to move out. Invite them over again, move them in and get another 20,000 simoleans. Do this about 5 times and you will have 100,000 Simoleans.
6. Now move out of your lot and move the second Sim in. Repeat step 5 by asking them to move in but this time you will be getting 100,000 Simoleans every time you move them in. Do this about 10 times and you will be at the maximum of 999,999 Simoleans. (you can delete the other Sim now that you have all the money)
7. Now, go to your regular family that you want the Simoleans for and pick a Sim to make best friends with the Sim that has the 999,999 Simoleans
8. Once your regular Sim becomes best friends with the rich one, you will want to move them in. Once you move them in, you will automatically have 999,999 Simoleans.
9. You will not need the other sim now that your regular family has the money. But you probably shouldnt delete the Sim that you got the Simoleans from just in case you want to get more Simoleans later.
10. If you spend the money and want more, just move them in again and you will have all the money back.

June 1 (Bloomberg) -- Richard Holwell, founding partner at Holwell Shuster & Goldberg LLP, talks with Bloomberg Law's Lee Pacchia about whether Goldman Sachs board member Rajat Gupta should take the witness stand in his own defense at his trial for insider trading. Prior to leaving the bench, Richard presided in Manhattan federal court over the insider trading trial of Galleon Group co-founder Raj Rajaratnam. Richard notes that the decision on whether or not clients should take the stand is one of the most difficult choices facing criminal defense attorneys and that he has rarely seen defendants doing so help their case. Richard also comments on whether Rajaratnam could have avoided conviction if he took the stand in his own trial.
