Novak Djokovic rallies to beat Marin Cilic
Last Updated: Thursday, March 13, 2014 - 14:04
World number two Novak Djokovic rallied against red-hot Marin Cilic, beating the Croatian 1-6, 6-2, 6-3 on Wednesday to reach the quarter-finals of the Indian Wells ATP Masters.
Cilic, who won two tournaments and reached the final of another in February, raced to a 5-0 lead against the former world number one from Serbia in just 20 minutes and wrapped up the first set in less than half an hour.
But Djokovic, who won the Indian Wells title in 2008 and 2011, kept his cool, and didn`t face a break point in taking the second and third sets.
In the quarter-finals Djokovic will face France`s Julien Benneteau, who beat Spaniard Feliciano Lopez 6-3, 7-6 (7/4).

Every third week of each month, starting from 26 May, 121BC celebrates the diversity of Italian cuisine by creating a themed menu of typical, classic, seasonal and sometimes unusual food from a particular region of Italy. A selection of regional dishes will be available as part of our a la carte menu in addition to the usual staple dishes. For those who wish to sample the majority of our a la carte menu may opt for the banquet menu. A wine flight which consists of 3 to 4 glasses will also be available if you wish to get a full 121BC experience.
Puglia: 26th – 31st May
Calabria: 16th -21st June
Book online or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com. Please inform us of any dietary requirements.
As you know, 121BC offers a wine list that focuses on wines made by small artisan producers, and winemakers that work with their hands, without the use of chemicals. A particular section of our list is dedicated to "Macerated Wines", more commonly known as "Orange Wines" because of their characteristic amber colour. A Macerated Wine is simply the result of a white grape varietal, that has spent some maceration time in contact with the grape skin, creating a product with more tannin, depth of flavour and texture (plus intensity of colour of course!).
With "Snacks & Skins" we're introducing a fun journey; a search for the most suitable dishes to pair with these wines, through scents, tastes and flavours. Below is a recent example:
A glass of 2010 Ezio Trinchero Bianco (Malvasia di Candia, Arneis – Piemonte) $80
Served with Pork Crocchetta
"SNACKS & SKINS" is available daily from 5.30pm – 7.30pm.
On Sundays, 121BC now opens from 5pm – 10pm. A signature pasta is highlighted on the menu each month. Parents looking for new places to take children for early Sunday suppers can bring their little ones to 121BC for a good wholesome house-made meal. Kids dinner offers a choice of homemade pasta with tomato, or butter and parmesan sauce served with a side of vegetables and a scoop of gelato for dessert. Priced at HK$150 per child, available from 5:00pm – 7:00pm every Sunday.

Concerns of paranormal activity in Beckenham have been sparked after the Ghostbusters were spotted in the town.
The New York-based parapsychologists, who look to be using alternative transport while in the UK, were spotted in Rectory Road this morning (May 2).
Last notably active in 2011, it is not known if the Ghostbusters are here to make a catch - though reports of supernatural beings have in the past been lodged nearby.
In May 2010 a dog owner from West Wickham said he saw a "strange apparition" in photos he had taken while out walking.
Paul Reed, 46, was taking pet Harry on a daily stroll in Beckenham's Kelsey Park and remarked how his usually spirited dog came to a halt and refused to budge.
Mr Reed explained that when he uploaded his images there appeared to be a transparent image of a person beyond some friendly ducks.
Two years later, in 2012, a 'graveyard guide' posted pictures of possible ghost sightings at the local crematorium.
- Custody for 'bedroom jihadist' who groomed youth with learning difficulties to carry out Lee Rigby copycat killing
- West Wickham buzzing after wasp invasion
- What's on this weekend: days out and shows in south east London and north Kent on May 30 and 31
- Chislehurst mum and son ordered to repay £2.8m mortgage fraud or face more jail time

SEATTLE, WA--(Marketwire - January 08, 2013) - Today, Picadelic, a leading developer of image-based entertainment products, announced the recent release of FxGuru, a new mobile app that brings big-budget, cinematic-quality special effects to Android video.
Created by the same software engineer who brought the world Blingee.com in 2007, FxGuru gives aspiring directors, sci-fi and action movie fans, or anyone looking to amaze their friends with the ability to easily add special effects to their mobile videos.
FxGuru dramatically improves upon the iPhone App of the Year (Action Movie FX) by bringing premium augmented video to Android and introducing groundbreaking new features. Innovations include:
1. Flexible Camera Movement: Proprietary MotionMatch™ technology allows a camera to move during filming, dramatically enhancing realism.
2. Improved Results with Virtual Decals: Virtual Decals provide a visual overlay of guidelines while filming to make complex scenes easier to shoot.
3. Long, Detailed Scenes: MotionMatch™ enables longer, more detailed effects, giving users the ability to shoot more dramatic sequences without breaking the illusion of reality.
FxGuru's team of artists has designed an impressive library of high-energy science fiction and action movie effects, from UFO sightings and rampaging robots to exploding barrels and incendiary flamethrowers. With over sixteen effects available at launch (and more on the way), FxGuru can be used to create short clips to astound friends and wreak imaginary havoc on co-workers, or harnessed as a tool to direct more complex, plot-driven stories with multiple effects.
FxGuru includes three free effects at launch. Satellite Crash offers a front row view of an aging satellite as it plummets to the earth crushing anything in its path. UFO Shuttle captures a UFO over the horizon as it sends a landing craft roaring overhead. And TNT Barrel explodes in a mix of gunpowder, smoke and debris, destroying its surroundings. A wide variety of other effects are available for in-app purchase, including:
Sci-Fi Movie / Futuristic / Alien Effects: Mech Attack; UFO Arrival; UFO Invasion; UFO Calling; Alien Probe; Meteor Strike
Action Movie / Weapons / Military Effects: Flamethrower; Cruise Missiles; Molotov Cocktail; Bunker Buster; Grenade; Building Demolition; Rocket Launcher
The FxGuru App is available for free from Google Play at: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.picadelic.fxguru
The iOS version is expected to ship in the coming weeks.
Video trailers of the ultimate movie FX app can be viewed online at: http://fxguruapp.com

The Industrial Internet revolution is now underway, enabled by connected machines and billions of devices that communicate and collaborate. The massive amounts of Big Data requiring real-time analysis is flooding legacy IT systems and giving way to cloud environments that can handle the unpredictable workloads. Yet many barriers remain until we can fully realize the opportunities and benefits from the convergence of machines and devices with Big Data and the cloud, including interoperability, data security and privacy.

Explosive growth in connected devices. Enormous amounts of data for collection and analysis. Critical use of data for split-second decision making and actionable information. All three are factors in making the Internet of Things a reality. Yet, any one factor would have an IT organization pondering its infrastructure strategy. How should your organization enhance its IT framework to enable an Internet of Things implementation? In this session, James Kirkland, Red Hat's Chief Architect for the Internet of Things and Intelligent Systems, will describe how to revolutionize your architecture and...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

We're entering a new era of computing technology that many are calling the Internet of Things (IoT). Machine to machine, machine to infrastructure, machine to environment, the Internet of Everything, the Internet of Intelligent Things, intelligent systems – call it what you want, but it's happening, and its potential is huge. IoT is comprised of smart machines interacting and communicating with other machines, objects, environments and infrastructures. As a result, huge volumes of data are being generated, and that data is being processed into useful actions that can "command and control" thi...

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

Thanks to widespread Internet adoption and more than 10 billion connected devices around the world, companies became more excited than ever about the Internet of Things in 2014. Add in the hype around Google Glass and the Nest Thermostat, and nearly every business, including those from traditionally low-tech industries, wanted in. But despite the buzz, some very real business questions emerged – mainly, not if a device can be connected, or even when, but why? Why does connecting to the cloud create greater value for the user? Why do connected features improve the overall experience? And why do...

While great strides have been made relative to the video aspects of remote collaboration, audio technology has basically stagnated. Typically all audio is mixed to a single monaural stream and emanates from a single point, such as a speakerphone or a speaker associated with a video monitor. This leads to confusion and lack of understanding among participants especially regarding who is actually speaking. Spatial teleconferencing introduces the concept of acoustic spatial separation between conference participants in three dimensional space. This has been shown to significantly improve comprehe...

TIMOLIDE (Timolol Maleate-Hydrochlorothiazide) is for the treatment of hypertension. It combines the antihypertensive activity of two agents: a non-selective beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agent (timolol maleate) and a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide).
TIMOLIDE is indicated for the treatment of hypertension.
This fixed combination drug is not indicated for initial therapy of hypertension. If the fixed combination represents the dose titrated to an individual patient's needs, it may be more convenient than the separate components.

NAILS Streaming Two New Tracks "Among The Arches Of Intolerance" and "In Pain"
Nails are currently streaming two new tracks that will be featured on the flexi disc that will be packaged with the February issue of Decibel Magazine. The new tracks are titled "Among the Arches of Intolerance" and "In Pain" and are both straightforward, brief and unbearably heavy. Basically, it is Nails being Nails. You can check out both auditory kicks in the teeth at this location.

REVIEW: SKINFATHER – "None Will Mourn"
Situated by membership and sound in the context of contemporary rising Southern California hardcore, Skinwalker walk the edge along with bands like Power Trip as niche groups prominent among the hardcore underground but not yet broken in the mainstream of their appropriate genres. While the latter Power Trip has found its corner amongst the hardcore world with recent success beyond following the release of their latest record, the approaching three-year career of Skinfather seems to have walked the path of stagnation, having under their belt but two EPs and a record of inconsistent touring with prominence overshadowed by their peers, by the genre disconnect among their main fanbase. 2014 brings Skinfather's debut record, None Will Mourn, to the front by way of Todd Jones of Nails's label Streetcleaner Records. Continuing the group's evolutionary incline towards a more expansive death metal style whilst refining their hardcore assault, None Will Mourn is definitely the group's finest work to date and just may be the group's breakout record.

Best Of 2013: Eric's Favorite Albums Of The Year
Hello again, fellow Aftermathers! My prolonged absence from the American Aftermath world officially ends NOW with this penultimate annual post, a small but personally necessary pittance to the plentiful albums and artists that sustained me throughout this most bountiful year in extreme music. The following thirty item list reflects full-length albums only with an aural adherence to the hardcore and powerviolence realms as per my listening habits this year. A ton of awesome death metal revivals as well as resurgences from other notables in the general metal realm happened this year (Gorguts, Carcass, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Ulcerate etc.) of which I listened(or rather actively listened) to practically NONE. I simply wasn't feeling it at this year and intend to return to survey these releases at another time. Thanks to the Aftermath crew especially Ross Gnarly, Lane "The Machine" Oliver, and Josh Huddleston, the bands and musicians, and last but not least, you, the readers! Peep the list after the jump.

Best Of 2013: Gnarly's Favorite Albums Of The Year
This has been an amazing year for music. Not just metal, but a great year for all styles and genres. I have enjoyed so many different styles of music this year as well as many, many artists within each style and it was a real pain for me to make this list. I keep this list simply to full-length albums (or LPs, kids). I used to keep it strictly metal when it came to this list and I would weed out rock for its own list, but this year I included non-metal stuff on my list as well. Not a lot of non-metal, but some nonetheless. Continue reading

I'm a huge fan of Nicola Upson's Josephine Tey mysteries and wasn't disappointed by this, the third in the series. It is cleverly written, with a very real sense of time and place, and believable characters. The plot itself is intriguing and there were one or two surprises. I wasn't as keen on the romantic sub-plot (hence 4 stars instead of 5) as it didn't strike me as quite so believable, but it didn't really affect my overall enjoyment of the book. I'll definitely be reading book 4.

3.0 out of 5 stars INTERESTING EXECUTION,
Red Rock Bookworm (St. George Utah USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Two For Sorrow (Josephine Tey) (Paperback)
If you are a reader who enjoys intricate plotting, brutal murders, baby farming, turn of the century English women's prisons, death by suicide, execution by hanging not to mention a little lesbian action thrown in for good measure, then you are sure to embrace the latest in the Josephine Tey mystery series, TWO FOR SORROW. Nicola Upson has managed to capture the readers attention as she artfully leads them through all of the above referenced experiences in this whodunit of intertwined stories whose twists and turns lead to several surprising discoveries, not the least of which is the who, what, where, when and why of the culprits identity.
Relying on the 1903 executions of Amelia Sachs and Annie Walters as her foundation, Ms. Upson has created, via her protagonist Josephine, a fascinating back story for these two women and has cleverly blended their story with two other events in Josephine's life to provide the reader with a satisfying reading experience.
While I enjoyed Ms. Upson's intricately plotted narrative and the attention paid to the historically accurate aspects of this chronicle, I will admit I was a bit put off by the detour the story took with the insertion of the Josephine/Marta lesbian encounter. Its unnatural placement in the story really seems to have nothing to do with the mystery other than to possibly tap into the reader's prurient curiosity or possibly to establish Josephine as a person less self possessed than she appears to be and in reality just a staid woman unwilling or unable to deviate from the entrenched routines that constitute her life.
Overall, this was an enjoyable read. I would recommend that in order to better understand the relationships between many of the characters in this story, it would definitely be beneficial to read Upson's AN EXPERT IN MURDER before embarking on TWO FOR SORROW.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent book in this promising series ...,
bookelephant (London) - See all my reviews
In this, Upson's third in her "Josephine Tey" series, Josephine's interest in a historical crime intersects with a truly horrific murder of a beautiful young ex-con who is going straight as a seamstress in the Motleys' charming theatrical/fashion studio. Also involved is one of the first "professional women's clubs" - which is of course where Josephine hangs out for peace and quiet in London. On the purely conventional crime level Upson weaves together scenes from the book which Josephine is writing, and the progress of the case, dropping excellent clues in true Golden Age fashion. At one point I thought I was going to be disappointed, but a final twist (such as the Motleys would use in giving a dress the perfect line and lie!) proved she had caught me napping, and provided a throughly satisfactory solution to the mystery.
But there is rather more than this accomplished Golden Age mystery to her work. Having not at all enjoyed David Roberts' attempts to provide us with new Golden Age detective material I was very sceptical about Nicola Upson's books - but having finally succumbed to them, I am delighted with what appears to be a fascinating series in the making. What seems to me particularly fine is the synthesis of Golden Age and modern styles - some reviewers have cavilled at this (not least in her frankness about the protagonists' love lives - which Tey herself would have hinted at and Sayers cloaked under layers of classical allusions) but I find it a very successful approach - one feels (since one knows for a fact that many of them did not lead conventional lives) as if one were reading what a Golden Age novelist might have said, were it not for the hovering blue pencil of her editor! Other interesting features of this modern/Golden Age combination are the establishment of sympathy with a character before killing him/her (modern!) combined with rather outre killings (GA) and considerable detail of circumstances/nastiness of death/scene (modern). Also worthy of note is the excellent research which seems to lie behind each book - here in addition to the delicious theatrical milieu of Gielgud/Olivier/Coward (the last of whom unusually appears under his own name) the Cowdray club and its atmosphere are fascinatingly evoked - and one gets a sense of greater sisterly solidarity amongst professional women in that era than one ever finds now that the battle for equality is supposedly won.
But possibly the refinement for which I have the most admiration is the exploration of Tey herself, and the fleshing out of her characters which one sees through the books. I always felt that Grant was really someone Tey knew and loved - and the development of Archie Penrose as the inspriation for the character (despite their considerable differences) is a theme which I find very satisfying. Likewise the sidelights on the development of the books and the other recurring characters (eg. Marta Hallard). Interestingly in this book Upson asks us, via Josephine, if what she is doing in recreating Tey and her world is right or wrong when she meditates on the appropriateness of novelising her historical crime when, she admits, she can't know what the women involved were really like. While the answer for Josephine on her facts may be no, I think that the answer for Upson and this series is emphaticaly: Yes. Keep them coming please - I look forward to the next already!

2.0 out of 5 stars could do better,
Amazon Customer "dedicated reader of crime fi... (Leighton Buzzard, UK) - See all my reviews
In many ways this book resembles the definition of warfare, that is 'long periods of bordom interspaced with explosive action.
The habit of giving back story by one paragraph per character one after the other is one that Ms Upson should try to break.
Also as she says herself at one point the using of real recent people and manipulating them into a story is wrong. I know the Pierpoint family and any further comment there will be made to Ms Upson directly.
Poor historical research and no understanding of either monetary values of the period or of vocabulary.
4.0 out of 5 stars A good, light read,
J. Scott-mandeville "jackie veronica" (UK) - See all my reviews
I am reading the Nicola Upson books out of a long-term loyalty to Josephine Tey, whose novels I enjoyed so much as a teenager and re-read as an adult. I am finding these reincarnations of Josephine Tey enjoyable, if a little contrived, but the books stand alone as light crime investigations and though Archie Penrose, the detective in Upson's books supposedly on whom Tey based her own detective, Alan Grant, is not a patch on Grant, the double fictions are cleverly played out and I find myself fascinated by Upson's ability to create fictional characters out of a web of imagined versions of people who really existed. It is quite a feat and though I feel the stories don't always work perfectly, the crimes are ingenious and interesting and the setting of the world of theatre holds its own drama. Upson keeps the reader involved and the novels can be enjoyed whether one is familiar with Tey and her work or not.

3.0 out of 5 stars diminishing returns,
Lordy (Lancashire) - See all my reviews
I have to say I was not quite as enamoured with this book as bookelephant. for very much the same reasons that he/she found the book interesting/enjoyable, I found it a little heavy going. I really wanted the author to get on with the story rather than use it quite so extensively as a vehical to explore the conditions of women prisoners in the early 20th century, attitudes towards women and careers, same sex relationships, class etc. sometimes the story of the murder seemed to be of secondary importance to the exploration of these issues. I also found the "modern" elements occasionally jarring with the golden age aesthetic, for example the swearing. I also feel that with each of the novels in this series the voice of Josephine Tey as a character is diminishing or becoming less distinct or interesting and has been replaced with the authors.
okay thats the negative stuff. I still enjoyed the book. I like the golden age stuff. I like the fact that Noel Coward can waft across the pages and that it can reference Brief Encounter to reflect one of the plot strands. I like the theatricality of the Motley Sisters and their social circle. I like the continuity of so many familiar characters and the odd running gag (poor Hephesbar). I want more of that. I thought there was an interesting twist that like the other reviewer I didn't see coming. I also wanted to know how the various plots would be resolved. so yeah, i enjoyed the book, but not as much as I would have done if the book had had a bit more rigorous editing. but hey, its my opinion and clearly other people love it as it is.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent intelligent crime,
Very good, slightly downbeat and stylistically clever - it mixes elements of classic "golden age" crime with a much more contemporary look at the victims and perpetrators. In this instance as well there was a lot of interesting detail on women & imprisonment and the grim conditions in prisons and the issues the use of the death penalty. These books are always well grounded in fact, the blending of fictional & semi-fictional characters around the factual character of Josephine Tey works well. In particular the beautiful diary / love letter sent by Marta to Josephine is actually an existent document sent to Tey by the actress Marda Vanne.

5.0 out of 5 stars chilling from beginning to end and will haunt you long after you have read it. Review by Angela Singer.,
B. DONNELLY (London, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Two for Sorrow by Nicola Upson, published by Faber and Faber. Review by Angela Singer.
This book is chilling from beginning to end and will haunt you long after you have read it. The opening chapter, one of the most powerful in the English language describes the day that a woman is hanged.
She is a despicable creature, a "baby farmer" who murdered the little ones in her charge, having taken money from newly delivered mothers assuring them that the child would be placed for adoption. She can walk cold-bloodedly carrying a dead baby along the streets of London . She can sit in a cafe, drinking unperturbed with the dead child on her lap - yet even that does not ameliorate the horror of the hanging, the state deliberately destroying a life - even that life.
Nicola Upson's third detective novel has her heroine, the real-life author and dramatist Josephine Tey, writing a novel about the Finchley baby farmers, Amelia Sach and Annie Walters, who were hanged at Holloway Prison on February 3, 1903. As Josephine researches this book, other murders happen around her, of young women working in the theatreland of London in the 1920s, where these novels are set.
Josephine and her friend, the dashing Inspector Archie Penrose, Upson's own creation, unravel a connection between the hanged women and the new murders a generation later. Upson, with her compelling and delicate writing style, layered onto meticulous research of the history and the period - she actually trod in the footsteps of the hanged women - creates for her readers a doorway into a lost world.
Extraordinary as the events in this book are, they are told with such detail that they are absolutely credible. The book holds your attention to the end and never fails to surprise.
2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing,
This review is from: Two For Sorrow (Josephine Tey) (Paperback)
I picked this up because I love Josephine Tey's books, especially Daughter of Time, which is still a good read with an original spin on Richard III. But this one and other two found disappointing. The books all three in this series do not make their mind up to what kind of thriller/detective books they are. Inspector Grant is a great character and does not need the Josephine Tey in them as she does not add much to the plot or enjoyment of the books. I don't see why she was needed she came over as a cold and detached person even though the writer did try and add some spice to her.
5.0 out of 5 stars An interesting book,
Mrs. S. M. Usher (West Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews
I heard about Josephine Tey through Slightly Foxed a book review I subscribe to and was delighted to discover I could get the books on kindle. I have now read all the available Nicola Upson books. The stories are well written, with good plots and a surprising modern morality. They are detective stories, but also explore difficult relationships and the aftermath of war. The books are quite short and whilst they can be read in order as they contain an ongoing story, stand up well as single novels.

You really never know who is going to pop up on Twitter. You may tweet one of your favorite actors …Read Now
Graham Norton is back this Saturday, June 4 at 10/9c, with an American/British lineup on his chat show The Graham Norton …Read Now
According to director David O. Russell, actor Christian Bale will be portraying a Jewish New Yorker in his forthcoming 1970s set film.
Russell says: "He's playing a financial con artist — not a macho man — a very different kind of person than he's every played before."
The director says the film is inspired by some true-life characters who are in the middle of some very intense emotional and romantic relationships in a setting of crime in the '70s. It's been reported that the film is based on the FBI's Abscam public corruption sting operations which led to the conviction of several politicians.
Also joining the cast are Bradley Cooper, Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner.
David O. Russell last worked with Christian Bale in the 2010 drama The Fighter. On having the British actor involved in his new film Russell says: "I feel blessed anytime I get to work with him. He's playing a sincere character, yet a dishonest character, which he did very well in a way in The Fighter as well."
Russell was commenting on Bale's character while in the midst of a series of media interviews set up to promote his picture Silver Linings Playbook. The film has eight Oscar nominations. Although it doesn't have frontrunner status, Russell is upbeat when asked if he thinks his film could cause an upset on the night.
He says: "Never stop believing, baby. You never know what's going to happen!"

I wish to start programming in Gambas2, but cannot locate any tutorials for beginners. Figured someone might know. Thanks in advance.
If you Google "Gambas 2", Did you try the second one down, http://www.gambasdoc.org? The "Gambas 2 docs?" Or is that not what you were looking for...
Last edited by kttyshadow5; June 17th, 2009 at 06:42 PM.
Gambas2-doc is also in the repositories. You can use Add/Remove Programs, or Syanptic Package Manager to install it.
There is a short tutorial at http://kalaharix.wordpress.com under 'Gambas 2.8 on Ubuntu 8.04'. It will be of help if you are a convert from VB or other language but is not designed as a beginners guide to programming.
I have not updated it for some time so the bit about installing Gambas 2.8 from other sites (azores) can be ignored.
You do however (on 9.04) have to go into Synaptic, search on Gambas and install components which have been left out of the repository package.
I am now using Gambas in critical applications in my small business and I must say I am finding it rock solid.
Synaptic includes gambasdoc but it is in html format and it is not structured in a way I find intuitive - but that is a personal preference. You can't search it easily, for instance. But you can search the web (add gambas as a keyword) and it is usually not too hard to find what you want.
I am converting from VB5 so the OO side is unfamiliar but then I am not doing anything very sophisticated - just for my own use - and I am finding gambas2 easy to get into.
Mainly it is a matter of knowing that a particular task is (or should be) possible in the language. This gives you the confidence to persist in tracking down the specifics.

If You're a Distracted Driver, You Can't Drive My Kid!
By Mouthy Housewives on February 19, 2014
Dear Mouthy Housewives,
My 10-year-old daughter's friend invited her and a few other girls to go away with her family for part of spring break. They are driving to the family's weekend home that is a few hours away. My daughter really wants to go, and I think it sounds like a great trip, but I know that the mom has a habit of texting while she's driving. I was in her car once and it made me very uncomfortable, although I did not say anything to her.
I am not sure what to do. I do not feel safe letting my daughter drive with this woman, but it doesn't feel right to tell her that I do not trust her driving.
Any ideas?
Nervous Mom
Dear Nervous Mom,
I think you are sure what to do, you are just not sure how to do it. There are many things in this world that we can't control, things that affect our children's well-being and safety. But whether or not your daughter gets into a car with this woman is not one of them.
It seems that you already know the dangers of distracting driving, and I am willing to bet that if the driver in question were drinking while driving, you would not be questioning your reaction. Assuming I won that bet and you are now in the process of emptying your bank account in order to bring me the loot, let's focus on how to handle this situation.
You could make other plans for your daughter and turn down the invitation. You could drive your daughter to the destination yourself and arrange to pick her up at the end of the vacation. This will most likely require an explanation and you can either do the white lie of "it's more convenient for me/I'll be in the area/I can't bear to be away from my angel for that long" or you can level with the other mother. Tell her that you are very concerned about other people driving your kid because you know how prevalent distracted driving is. Of course this could be uncomfortable and awkward. She may wonder if you are accusing her, get defensive or deny that she does that.
Unfortunately, awkwardness is the lesser of the evils. Because you don't have a choice. There is too much at stake and the conversation about driving safety is an important one to have.
Good luck,
Marinka, TMH

No problems at all.
outdoor pool...scenery was nice, room was spacious for its price, room and hotel was clean
rude management, rushed me off the phone, rushed us out when we were trying to check in, called to wake us up and ask when we were leaving, locked the breakfast room and when i tracked him to unlock for coffee and breakfast i was rudely told there was coffee in my room. coffee was cold breakfast consisted of 3 stale bagels and 2 varieties of stale cereal, jug of milk and jug of juice in mini fridge
The staff was very friendly! The hotel was very clean and very nice! The bed was very comfortable had a great night sleep.
Nothing really but if I had to put something the pool was a little cold and there was no hot tub like in the pictures but no other complaints
Continental Breakfast had allot to choose from.The Suite had a role out mattress in the couch.
The suite room had a cigarette smell to it.There was no bed sheets for the roll out mattress.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The facility was clean and the breakfast was great! I will stay again on my next trip.

North Louisiana Math Teachers' Circle to host national mathematician in residence
More than two dozen mostly middle school math teachers from Caddo, Bossier and DeSoto parishes will convene in May to do math for the fun of it and attend the final meeting of the school year for the North Louisiana Math Teachers' Circle.
LSU Shreveport mathematics professor Judith Covington launched the group several years ago. She says math teachers meet eight evenings during the academic year to work on problems in a casual environment.
The May 5 meeting will feature James Tanton, the mathematician in residence at the Washington, D.C.-based Mathematical Association of America. His topic is "exploding dots," according to Covington.
"He starts with you've got one dot, you've got two dots. But at some point, the dots, if you have enough of them, they're going to explode and change," Covington said. "The exploding dots relate to how we can count. He'll even use that to show how we look at some algebra ideas."
The North Louisiana Math Teachers' Circle emphasizes the camaraderie math teachers feel when they get together for dinner and to work on math problems, according to Covington. The Circle allows them to leave behind the politics of being an educator and become a math student for a few hours.
"It's fun for the teachers to get together and do math themselves. I think so often they focus on teaching what they already know. Sometimes, they forget what it's like to learn new material," Covington said.
The North Louisiana Math Teachers' Circle is supported by several grants. The May 5 meeting will be held at LSUS's Bronson Hall.
East Texas also has a Math Teachers' Circle led by math faculty from Stephen F. Austin State University. Its next meeting is set for May 27.
