Acoustic Impulse Response Measurement: A New Technique
Even under ideal conditions, traditional methods of measuring the acoustic impulse response of a concert hall prove limited. A new measurement system utilizing advanced digital inverse filtering techniques has been developed. The measurement system is implemented on a minicomputer and tests show superior results even when the measurements are made in the presence of significant background noise levels.

Hemmings Find of the Day – 1962 DAF Daffodil
While parts for DAFs might not be entirely impossible to find, they certainly aren't sold in every street corner parts store. It's fortunate, then, that this 1962 DAF Daffodil for sale on Hemmings.com appears rather complete and in running shape. Sure, it's going to need some restoration work, but that restoration will be much easier knowing that the whole car's accounted for. From the seller's description:
Manufactured in Holland, the car was first shipped to New York to a DAF Dealership. Shortly after, the car was transported to California and fitted with the classic black and gold California license plates. The current California owner has enjoyed and garaged the car in the State since 1976. With only 58k original miles this mini-car is quite a find. Some restoration work has been completed on the car through the years, but the vehicle remains in overall original condition. The owner has accumulated a three-inch thick folder of DAF literature, invoices and memorbilia regarding the car and the file will come with sale.
Driving this little car is a pleasure (and a bit unique) for you do not hear the car shift. The CVT adjusts engine speed to provide optimal power for acceleration. Powered by the stock 746 cc four stroke, air-cooled two-cylinder engine this car really scoots. I was personally driven in the vehicle and it can certainly keep up with today's touring speeds with remarkable mpg.
The car has some paint issues, chrome pitting in areas and some paint-bubbling was noticed on the back deck lid by the hinge. I did not have the car on a lift, but with my camera's atriculated viewfinder, the undercarriage pans appear very solid as are the inside trunks areas. The vehicle starts, drives, steers and stops wonderfully. For a little car the inside passenger compartment is amazingly roomy.

Two two trucks trucks in in one one: the the Konings Konings Siamese Siamese Twin Twin
Photos courtesy Conam.info.
Flour weighs a lot. Especially when you pile bags upon bags of the stuff and try to haul it anywhere, as Smeets of Roermond in the Netherlands discovered. Rather than buy a truck to deliver its flour, however, the bakery had another idea, one which resulted in perhaps the world's only twin-engine, twin-grille Ford Model AA.
A bakery and flour dealer, Smeets needed an inexpensive hauler of about five tons' capacity, company officials estimated. The only five-ton trucks on the market at that time far exceeded the company's budget, according to Rutger Booy, writing for the Dutch site Conam, but two less expensive trucks with lighter weight ratings fell within its budget, so why not make one heavy truck out of two lighter ones and combine the weight ratings to get what they wanted?
It sounds ludicrous, especially considering Smeets wanted to use a pair of 1-1/2-ton Ford Model AAs, but Dutch industrial products company Konings stepped up to the challenge. Konings, founded in 1873, had a little bit of experience with automobiles back around the turn of the century, building about half a dozen cars based on the patents of Ferdinand Anderheggen of Amsterdam. With input from H.C. Olivier, Konings owner Leo Konings and engineer Charles Konings went to work in 1932, installing the drivetrains from both AAs side-by-side in one chassis. The front axle appears to be stock AA, but around back, Olivier and the Konings developed twin cardans – not entirely dissimilar to the setup that at least one Detroit twin-engine converter used about a decade later – that mounted the full rear suspension from both AA trucks as well as shortened single-wheel axles from both AA trucks.
Both AA grilles then covered the setback engines – much like Willard Morrison's twin-grille Lincoln Zephyr – while the Konings mated both cabs to cover the width of the vehicle. According to Booy, the driver sat in the center of the cab and used one brake and one accelerator pedal, but shifted both transmissions independently with two different clutch pedals. It appears from the photos above that Konings refined the design for another "Siamese Twin" chassis (the one with twin 1932 Ford grilles), placing the driver at the far left of the cab – presumably they figured out how to shift both transmissions at once with that refinement.
Konings apparently showed the Siamese Twin once in 1933, and from the lead photo it appears as though they also custom built a trailer to go with it. Booy doesn't say whether the company had production plans for the Twin, whether the final product cost less than contemporary five-ton trucks, or what happened to the Twin after Konings delivered it to Smeets.
This Day in History: DAF 600 Variomatic debuts
On February 7, 1958, the DAF 600 debuted at the Amsterdam Auto Show. The little compact was largely unremarkable, except for its startling new transmission: the Variomatic. This continuously variable transmission didn't require a gearbox, could drive as fast in reverse as forward, and was the cheapest automatic transmission then available. To see a DAF 600 Variomatic in action, check out this video (in Dutch).
Four-Links – Sanford drags in the Sixties, BMW 3002, Gatford, Doukohu Eve
* For fans of East Coast drag racing, you'll not want to miss this collection of photos from Sanford, Maine's dragstrip in the 1960s. (via)
* No, the BMW "3002" was never anything more than a one-off 2002 with an E9 coupe front end and six-cylinder, but it's still noteworthy. IEDEI has the story on why it was built and what happened to it.
* You've surely seen the one photo of the Dutch Gatford/Gatso that's been around the web a billion times, but what more do you know about it? Geoff Hacker at Forgotten Fiberglass this week filled us in with scans from a Gatford brochure and info on how it was built.
* This past week marked a significant, but little known, anniversary in the world of Japanese collector cars. Thousands of bosozoku motorcycles and cars took over the streets of Tokyo November 22, 1978, in what has since become known as Doukohu Eve. Japanese Nostalgic Car has more on the event.
* Finally, you may have seen the video of the Poteet and Main Speed Demon going 462 MPH on the Bonneville Salt Flats earlier this year and wondered exactly why George and Ron haven't been celebrated for breaking the piston-engine, wheel-driven land-speed record. Short answer: They couldn't back it up with a return run. The video above, "Just Believe – The Year the Speed Demon Rewrote History," provides the full story of the Speed Demon team's 2011 efforts.

Congressional delegation wants more funding for water project
BY CHRIS WOODKA The Pueblo Chieftain
Published: March 12, 2014; Last modified: March 12, 2014 08:26AM
Colorado's congressional delegation is calling on the administration and Congress to boost funding levels for the Arkansas Valley Conduit.
The administration's budget numbers for the conduit, released late Monday, included just $500,000 for the conduit, which last month received final approval, a record of decision, from the Bureau of Reclamation.
But about $14 million is needed to keep engineering and design for the project on track in order to break ground in 2016.
The project sponsors, the Southeastern Colorado Water Conservancy District, currently have secured about $3.1 million — which includes carry-over funding — to begin work on the conduit.

The treatment scheme is purely welfare and therefore it does not require any approval of ethical committees for his application. It gathers the basic ideas of the present treatment of the AML, with optional induction according to preference of each center with daunorubicin or Idarubicin (x3) associated to AraC (x7). The patients who reach CR consolidate with an identical cycle to the used one in the induction. Later (if pte has identical donor HLA, and as much it as their doctors has preference by this option) receive allogenic transplant. The other patients who reach CR receive two intensifications, one that AraC to intermediate dose contains and another one with autologous transplant, previous preparation with Busulfán, Etoposide and AraC. Later all antileucemic treatment is suspended until possible relapse. This scheme of treatment is accompanied by a valuation of the quality of the CR with traditional morphology, Immunocytometry and molecular genetic study and of a pursuit of residual minimum disease (EMR) using the same techniques.

Carleen Campbell-Blair making strides with JNSBL
Carleen Campbell-Blair
Almost 23 years ago, Carleen Campbell-Blair quit her job as a cook at a fast-food restaurant to start her own business.
At the time, she had only $3,500 which she used to buy items of clothing, toiletries and other accessories to put in her shop in the May Pen Market. After taking that bold step in October 1991, Campbell-Blair operates three small businesses at separate locations in May Pen.
The 50-year-old mother of three admitted her time as a small business operator has not been easy. From monitoring a clothes store in the market, or her flowers store in Newcastle Plaza, as well as a bridal shop in Bargain Village, Campbell-Blair said she has been able to survive because she keeps her businesses separate.
"Yes, I have three distinct businesses. Here (Angels Bridal store at Bargain Village) deals with weddings. I have the clothes store at the market and the flowers store has wholesale flowers and wreaths. I differentiate the businesses," she said.
"If I borrow from Flower Superstore for Angels Bridal, then Angel Bridal will have to pay back Flower Superstore."
Campbell-Blair's businesses employ five persons and she is actively trying to hire another. The sluggish economy has forced her to become savvy when it comes to gauging customers' needs.
"You have to be smart," she explained. "You have to work with the season. I have to work with graduation in order to get money to pay my bills and buy goods. I have to work with Valentine's in order to catch up with stiff January. So, you have to work with the seasons to survive."
Campbell-Blair ventures, however, would not have been possible had it not been for JN Small Business Loans. She was introduced to JN Small Business Loans (JNSBL) in 2000 and has been a beneficiary since.
Philip Bernard, general manager, JNSBL, commended Campbell-Blair for her hard work and dedication to entrepreneurship.
"Her spirit and desire to do well represent the type of vision and commitment to quality that we want to see. We have enjoyed a good relationship with her over the years, and we look forward to continue working with her to growing her businesses," Bernard said.

'Weeds' Season 6 Trailer: Nancy Botwin's Crazy Ride (VIDEO)
Based on the season 6 trailer below, it looks like 'Weeds' is getting a much-needed reboot. I was looking over my reviews from last season, and wow, you guys were not happy with me, because I just wasn't digging the show at all.
But many of you agreed with me that season 5 left something to be desired. The Nancy-Esteban pairing dragged the show down, and much of the whimsy I loved at the beginning of the series was gone. But I'm super excited about the re-boot and can't wait for it to start. We'll see if Nancy gets her misguided mojo back.
My dream ending for the season 5 finale involved Andy and Nancy gathering up the kids, piling into whatever vehicle was handy, and getting the heck out of Mexico. Those two belong together, and there's a slim possibility it could happen now that Nancy has "ditched" Esteban.
At least, it looks like she's ditched Esteban, since the trailer shows her tossing her handgun, passport and cell phone (with "Esteban" blinking on the call-in) into the hole, along with a bobblehead Jesus camera (presumably the one from Guillermo's drug den) and a croquet mallet (presumably the one Shane used to knock Pilar over the head with).
Gone, all gone, tossed into the hole Nancy dug with a shovel in the Southwest landscape while decked out in her skin-tight black dress and oh-so-chic black ankle-wrap platforms (I'm guessing Steve Madden; shoe mavens weigh in, please).
Uh oh, here comes the cops. Time for Nancy Botwin to hit the highway once again. According to The Ausiello Files, she's headed north to Seattle, where she'll brush up against an eco-conscious pot grower (Linda Hamilton), who along with her life partner Fiona, will give Nancy a helping hand. Or not.
Elizabeth Perkins has vacated her role as alcoholic mom Celia Hodes, but 'Prison Break' alum Peter Stormare has signed on as a hot-tempered German chef who butts heads with his new dishwasher, Andy. I so cannot wait to see Andy again; surely one of the nuttiest, most laissez-faire characters on the tube right now.
If you haven't figured it out by now, I absolutely love this trailer. It's moody and dark. It brings in the previous season and sets up the new season. And in the process, it also gets right to the heart of the show -- Parker's kooky, fashion-conscious, croquet-mallet-dodging Nancy. Head north, girl. We'll ride along.

Top-ranked recipe named "Slow Cooked Thai Chicken"
Source: Allrecipes
"Very yummy! I doubled the red pepper flakes as well and used lettuce cups instead of rice! I also omitted the chicken broth and just used water. I think next time I'll try chunky peanut butter and little coconut milk!"
Place the chicken breast strips, bell pepper and onion into slow cooker. Pour in chicken broth, 1/4 cup soy sauce, cumin, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt & pepper. Stir to blend, then cover and cook on low for 4 1/2 - 5 hours.
Remove 1 cup of the liquid from the slow cooker, and mix this with the cornstarch, peanut butter, 1 Tbl. soy sauce and lime juice. This should blend into a fairly thick sauce. Stir the sauce back into the slow cooker and cook on high for 30 minutes.
Garnish with green onions, cilantro and peanuts before serving.

Half-life: Opposing Force is still an amazing game, although it's not nearly as amazing as it was when it was released.
Here's finally Operation Black Mesa's second Media Release.

The New Terrorism
Fanaticism and the Arms of Mass Destruction
In The New Terrorism Walter Laqueur, one of the foremost experts on terrorism and international strategic affairs, recounts the history of terrorism and, more importantly, examines the future of terrorist activity worldwide. Laqueur traces the chilling trend away from terrorism perpetrated by groups of oppressed nationalists and radicals seeking political change to small clusters of fanatics bent on vengeance and simple destruction. Coinciding with this trend is the alarming availability of weapons of mass destruction. Chemical and biological weapons are cheap and relatively easy to make or buy. Even nuclear devices are increasingly feasible options for terrorists. And with the information age, cyber terrorism is just around the corner. Laqueur argues that as a new quasi-religious extreme right rises, with more personal and less ideological motivations than their left-wing counterparts, it is only a matter of time before the attainability of weapons of mass destruction creates a terrifying and unstable scenario. From militant separatism in Kashmir to state-sponsored extremism in Libya and ecoterrorism in the West, The New Terrorism offers a thorough account of terrorism in all its past and current manifestations. Most importantly, it casts a sober eye to the future, when the inevitable marriage of technology and fanaticism will give us all something new to think about.less

Pronunciation: /ˌkroitsfeltˈyäkōb dəˌzēz/
Definition of Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease in English:
A fatal degenerative disease affecting nerve cells in the brain, causing mental, physical, and sensory disturbances such as dementia and seizures. It is believed to be caused by prions and hence to be related to BSE and other spongiform encephalopathies such as kuru and scrapie.
1930s: named after H. G. Creutzfeldt (1885–1964) and A. Jakob (1882–1927), the German neurologists who first described cases of the disease in 1920–21. Creutzfeldt is credited with the first description of the disease in 1920, although the case is atypical by current diagnostic criteria; a year later Jakob described four cases, at least two of whom had clinical features suggestive of CJD as it is currently described.

In Myanmar, there are about 135 ethnic
groups. Among them, the major races are Bamar, Shan,
Kayin, Chin, Kachin, Kayah, Mon
and Rakhine. They all have their own dialect, tradition,
culture, legendary and traditional costume.
The traditional costume consist "longyi" (sarong) and "eingyi"
(blouse) & (shirt)
Centuries ago, people came from India, Tibet and Mongolia into
Myanmar. The way of the dressing of our earliest people "Pyus"
was like Indian culture.
Bamar men wear ankle length patterns
of checks, plaids or stripes "Longyi" in any kinds of colour.
Kayin traditional "longyi" has solid reds bordered with
horizontal stripes at the middle. Rakhine patterns fracture a
thick, high relief weave in light, reflective greys and blues.
The Kachin longyi consists of checks of black, green and deep
purple. Mon longyi is in small checks on red, bordered with
horizontal stripes at the middle looks something like in Kayin "longyi".
Chin "longyi is like Bamar "longyi" But it has a column.
Shan and Kayah men's traditional costumes are quite different,
because they wear loose trousers. Shan trousers have light
brown, brown, terracotta or grey colour but Kayah trousers are
only in black.
To wear, they tie them, they gather the front of the "longyi" to
create two short lengths of material, then twist them into a
half knot, tucking one end in at the waist, while allowing the
other to protrude from the knot. Shan men tie their trousers
like "longyi" Kayah men tie them pink band at the waist on their
Their white "eingyi" looks like shirt has mandarin collar. Bamar,
Kachin, Mon, Shan, Kayah and Rakhine men wear traditional jacket
called "teik-pon "on their "eingyi". It has white, grey, black
or terracotta colour. But Kayin and Chin men wear their long
dress instead of "tiek-pon". They put the "gaung-baung" turban
on their head and for footwear, simple rubber or velvet
Bamar women's calf-length "longyis" are in solid colours, flower
prints and many kinds of designs. One of the famous designs
feature wavy or zig zag "acheig" patterns. Rakhine women
traditional "longyi" is also in "acheig". The Mon "longyi "has
red base colour, on it partial stripes and very small checks
design. Kayin and Kayah "longyis" are in horizontal stripes on
red or green colour. Kayah women tie them beautifully with very
long band in front of them, at the waist. Shan "longyi" has
horizontal or vertical stripes at the middle part. Upper and
lower parts are in plain colour. Kachin "Longyi" has the "manaw"
columns, on the red or black colour base.

City to test blending of water
Council OKs tighter watering restrictions
SAN ANGELO, Texas - Water issues took up a large portion of Tuesday's San Angelo City Council meeting, but council members also discussed fire access roads and removal of a live oak tree.
The city will begin blending 10 parts surface water to 1 part Hickory Aquifer water for about two weeks, beginning May 1.
"We'll bring on a million (gallons) a day," said Ricky Dickson, director of Water Utilities. "Make sure all the controls are working."
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality approved a 5:1 blending ratio of surface water with the Hickory water, but Dickson said this temporary blending is just to make sure the city doesn't encounter any treatment problems.
Dickson wants to limit withdrawal from the Hickory because the city has only about 39,750 acre-feet of "banked" water from the aquifer. When possible, Dickson said, he would rather use the surface supplies first and turn to the Hickory water when necessary.
"I want that water there as long as we have it," Dickson said. "I want to make sure we get our part" from O.H. Ivie Reservoir.
Dickson said the city is trying to wait to draw from the Hickory because the less it uses now, the more it will have available in the future if lake levels don't go back up.
San Angelo can draw 2,750 acre-feet of water per year from the Hickory Aquifer, based on a 1997 court decision. The city's allocation will go up to 5,000 acre-feet per year in 2021 and 10,000 acre-feet in 2026.
An acre-foot of water is about 326,000 gallons, meaning San Angelo can use about 896.5 million gallons of Hickory water per year for now. By comparison, the city typically uses about 15,000 acre-feet — or 4.9 billion gallons — per year, according to a city news release.
The Hickory Aquifer groundwater treatment facility, which will remove naturally occurring radium and iron from the Hickory water, is scheduled for completion in November, Dickson said.
The city also approved the drilling of six additional wells at the McCulloch County well field, where nine already have been drilled. The new wells are scheduled to be complete by March, at which time the Hickory pipeline will be capable of bringing 9 million gallons per day to San Angelo.
"If we get on that 9 mgd every day, we've got five years of banked water," Dickson said.
Dickson hopes the city doesn't have to draw from the banked water supply for as long as possible, so there will be more available in the future.
Assuming no runoff into area lakes, the city has about 13.5 months of available surface water supply in O.H. Ivie Reservoir, Twin Buttes Reservoir and Lake Nasworthy.
Officials project that if it doesn't receive adequate rainfall, Ivie will be depleted by November.
Blending of the Hickory water with surface supplies will last about two weeks, during which time the city will monitor the process.
San Angelo has reverted to allowing outdoor watering once every two weeks instead of once per week.
During Tuesday's meeting, the council unanimously voted on a temporary resolution to go back to the wintertime watering allowance — once every 14 days — effective immediately.
This resolution overrides the ordinance that allows once per week watering during warmer months, which automatically kicked in April 1.
Watering outdoors still is prohibited from noon to 6 p.m., when evaporation rates are highest. No more than 1 inch of water is allowed for each application.
With 13.5 months of water remaining, the city is in drought level 2, which is triggered when the city's supply is less than 18 months.
Once supplies drop below 12 months, the city will enter drought level 3, which prohibits all outdoor watering.
Officials and experts hope to drill down numbers for the proposed Red Arroyo water capture project by the end of the week.
"We'll look at feasibility," City Manager Daniel Valenzuela said. "We should have the numbers ready by Friday."
Last week, Valenzuela said, city officials, representatives from the Upper Colorado River Authority and engineering groups met to discuss differences in pricing estimates, supply estimates and permitting processes.
Although San Angelo has the authority to divert 5,000 acre-feet per year from the arroyo, Valenzuela said, the engineers have to figure out how much the city will be able to capture.
Experts from Jacobs Engineering, who consulted the UCRA, estimated that a normal year's rainfall could yield about 11,550 acre-feet.
By contrast, Robert Brandes, senior consultant with Atkins North America, projected an annual yield of about 2,600 acre-feet.
Experts also differed on their opinions of how deep the city would have to excavate to develop a pond to hold the water.
The experts are working together to come up with more conclusive numbers.
In a discussion of water violations, the council said it wants to explore the possibility of fining violators through the water department instead of the Municipal Court.
"Some other municipalities are simply snapping a shot ... then they set up a fee schedule paid through" the water department, said James Flores, manager of code compliance.
In other cities, Flores said, fining water violators through the water department has helped offset some revenue shortfalls from selling less water.
"I would totally be in favor of that," Councilman Rodney Fleming said.
The code compliance department found about 3,100 violators in San Angelo last year, Flores said — from people who were overwatering their yards to people who allowed water to run 15 feet down a public street.
One problem, Flores said, is that because the code compliance department has the directive to prioritize water violations, some other violations have taken a back seat.
"I hate to say we may be a little understaffed," Flores said, noting that the department is finding more violators year-to-date than it did during the same period last year. But he added that it could be attributed to his officers being more active and not necessarily people violating more.
The council also heard an update from Jonathan Jennings, meteorologist with the West Texas Weather Modification Association, regarding the city's participation in cloud seeding operations.
"One of the biggest impacts is aquifer recharge," Jennings said.
Jennings listed some of the technical aspects of weather modification, in which pilots fly at the base of a convective thunderstorm or a strong rain shower and seed it with flares.
An analysis of the WTWMA target area, which covers seven counties, showed that there was a 15 percent increase of precipitation over the past 10 years. Essentially, Jennings said, the target area received an additional year of rainfall over the past decade.
"We cannot create clouds," Jennings said. "I wish we could. ... But we need nature to provide clouds for us already."
Jennings said the operations are a long-term, gradual water management strategy.
The council came to somewhat of a compromise regarding fire access roads — a much-debated topic between fire officials and local developers.
"We have got to do something; we've got developers out there that are being stopped," Mayor Dwain Morrison said.
On Tuesday the council voted 6-1 for several changes to a code specifying fire access roads for one- and two-family residential developments. Councilman Marty Self voted against the changes.
Some local developers felt the fire code requirements, and enforcement of them in the last few years, were too stringent and they should be allowed to put in more units before providing an access road.
Fire officials, however, said that the code's minimum standards were for the best interest of public safety.
"If we have a fire and we only have one way in and out, it blocks the street," said Fire Chief Brian Dunn. "I understand that this is a monetary issue. ... But for me to tell you that large number is OK, I can't in good conscience do that."
Even in a normal fire, he said, ladder trucks and pumps will block of most of a street, making it difficult for residents to evacuate.
Currently, a developer who exceeds 30 dwelling units is required to provide two access roads approved for use by fire apparatus, with some exceptions.
In the changes that the council settled on Tuesday, the trigger point for two access roads was raised to 75 units.
Developers who have between 75 and 165 units are exempt from the requirement if the first access road connects to a platted property — meaning it will be developed in the future.
Between 165 and 275 units, developers will be required to add a second, unimproved access road — meaning it can be a gravel road.
Any development with more than 275 units will be required to have a second, improved access road.
Developments initiated before the amendments will be "grandfathered" in. Developers also can request variances if the ordinance places a hardship on them.
The live oak tree that butts up against a basin at the International Water Lily Collection will be removed.
Many spoke in favor of removing the tree — saying that its leaves and tassels are affecting the water chemistry and that the roots are breaking through the sidewalk and basin.
Residents stressed the importance of the collection, saying it draws spectators from around the globe and has given San Angelo international fame.
The council voted 6-1 to remove the tree and authorize an agreement for improvements at Civic League Park. Councilwoman Charlotte Farmer voted nay.

Monaco has new princessMONACO — After waiting for nearly 30 years, the glitzy principality of Monaco has a new princess. Charlene Wittstock, a one-time Olympic swimmer from South Africa, married Prince Albert II in an intimate civil ceremony Friday. Wittstock succeeds Grace Kelly, the Hollywood beauty who wed Albert's late father, Prince Rainier III, in 1956 and had three children with him before dying in a car crash in 1982. Dressed in a dusty blue jacket and matching palazzo pants made by Chanel, her blond hair pulled back, 33-year-old Wittstock seemed to be channeling a bit of Princess Grace's legendary elegance. The couple took their vows in a ceremony before several dozen guests in the palace's sumptuous, red silk-walled throne room, where Grace and Rainier also married. ''Oui,'' both responded in voices so soft as to be barely audible, when asked if they took each other as their spouse. The marriage became official — and Monaco finally had its princess — when the president of Monaco's Council of State, Philippe Narmino, who officiated the ceremony, pronounced ''I declare you united by the bonds of marriage.'' William, Kate charm Canada OTTAWA, Ontario — Thousands of Canadians lined the streets and cheered as Prince William and Kate arrived in an open carriage at Parliament Hill to join in Canada Day celebrations on Friday. A 21-gun salute to Canada's 144th birthday and military plane flyovers were part of the pageantry, which was to be capped by a speech by the prince. The newlywed couple is on a nine-day tour of Canada on their first official overseas trip. At breaks in the official program, the crowd erupted into the cheer ''Will and Kate, Will and Kate.'' The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, as they are officially known, began the day Friday by joining in the ceremony for 25 people who became Canadian citizens. As they emerged from their motorcade at the Canadian Museum of Civilization to raucous cheering from hundreds of spectators. The pro-royal spectators drowned out a handful of protesters.

I have a bean for an webservice client in my project which requires some configuration settings to be injected. We are using Spring 3.1. Currently the best idea that came up was using the @Value annotation like this:
public class MyWebServiceClient {
private String endpointUrl;
public void setEndpointUrl(String endpointUrl) {
this.endpointUrl = endpointUrl;
However I don't really like hardcoding the property name into the class. It also has the problem that there is no way to have more than one client with different settings in the same context (as there is only one property and this is hardcoded). Is there a more elegant way of doing this with autowiring or should I resort to plain old xml configuration for doing this?

Excite your family this week by making sweet and sour chicken – a hearty Chinese takeout-inspired dinner packed with vegetables – in your slow cooker. Cook a few cups of plain white rice in the rice cooker to soak up the tangy pineapple sauce.
Meals like this sweet and sour chicken are great for evenings when your family is busy. Instead of trying to put something together after the kids' many activities, just put everything in the slow cooker and rice cooker before you leave. You won't resort to fast food on the way back because a delicious, well-balanced meal is waiting for you at home.
For "one-pot" simplicity, nothing beats slow cooking. But when it comes to bringing hot meals to parties and potlucks, spills can be a concern. With the travel-friendly Set & Forget® Slow Cooker, messes aren't an issue.
