Lincoln United Methodist Church recently added a new religious leader to its ranks.
Brandon Lazarre, who officially assumes his role as Lincoln UMC's new senior pastor Sunday, previously served as a pastor and youth minister at Cahaba UMC.
"I've been a youth minister for close to 12 years, so my main ministry experience has been youth ministry," Lazarre said.
Lazarre graduated from Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Ky., in 2010.
Lazarre said his main focus area is for Lincoln UMC's congregation to have an even more visible impact by having their fingers on the pulse of the neighboring communities.
"The ultimate desire is that God's presence would be shown through Lincoln UMC," Lazarre said. "I want to be in a church, be part of a church that loves well, so ultimately we can see God in His love, through His truth but also through the way He shows mercy and grace. For us not to just show up, do things and have programs, but to actually be people who are present in this community and are known for being Christ-like in the way that we live, the way that we love and the way that we create."
He cited several examples of how the church can impact the community, from tasks as simple as assisting someone in need with home repairs to reaching out to nearby community college students who may not be close to home and may have an unmet need.
"Spiritual and physical are constantly indivisible," Lazarre said. "Our physical needs are sometimes affected and determined by how our spiritual needs are met. One of the ultimate commandments in the Bible is to love God and love one another. If you can break that down, there's a spiritual love that you must be informed with and connect with, and there's a physical love that we have that's always fed by the spiritual love for God. My prayer for Lincoln UMC and Lincoln is that the supernatural spiritual love of God found in Jesus Christ will be shown in the way that we tend to the physical, human life that happens every day. Ultimately, we believe in a salvation that is spiritual … eternal, but right now we're in the physical, so our journey is always linking those two."
While Lazarre stressed the importance of taking a more holistic approach in meeting community needs, he insisted he won't shift away from the more conventional ways of the church or the vision of the church.
"Church is known and defined by its services on Wednesday and Sundays, and I desire to do that with excellence, to seek out who God is through the reading and studying of His word, through prayer, through the offering of a variety of worship venues," Lazarre said. "We are a very traditional church, and we will remain to be so, but if a need in this community is to reach out to the current generation who is more contemporary, then I pray that we can stretch and reach out to them."
Lazarre discussed at length how selfishness can be one of the biggest obstacles in making strides within the church and community.
"Our selfishness is what kills us," Lazarre said. "It's our sin. So many times we're being selfish or sinful. We're kind of keeping to what we think our needs are. So by us being able to reach out into our community, it shows how Christ gave Himself up and shows really who God is. He's a sacrificial, loving God who is holy and wants nothing of selfish nature. Christ said the greatest love you can have is to lay your life down for your neighbor. I pray that we can do that to all places, all races and all genders."
Lazarre is accompanied by his wife, Emma, who works as an oncology nurse, and their two-year-old son, Ethan.
Lincoln Elementary School Principal and Lincoln UMC churchgoer Dr. Donna Hudson applauded Lazarre's efforts thus far, and said she looks forward to what's on the horizon for Lincoln UMC.
"We are extremely excited to have Brandon and his family in Lincoln," Hudson said. "Even before his official arrival, he has been in our church getting to know everyone. He has spent time with the youth group and has already become a member of the Lincoln Methodist softball team. His helpful spirit is already showing. We feel richly blessed by God to have this young man lead our congregation."

Daniel (DP160)
From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Daniel (Japanese: ユウタ Yūta) is a character of the day in A Marathon Rivalry!.
He is a young boy who carries a laptop, which he uses to analyze his Pokémon's condition. He believes that the best way to train his Pokémon is a "scientific" approach; therefore, he uses high-tech machines to train them. Some of these machines were seen when Daniel demonstrated his training style to Ash and his friends in his training lab in Camellia Town. He also believes that the Pokéathlon better compares two Trainers' levels of synchronicity with their Pokémon than does a Pokémon battle.
| ||
Snorlax is Daniel's main Pokémon. It was shown early in the episode undergoing Daniel's scientific training. Daniel also used Snorlax as a demonstration on his strategy to winning the Pokéathlon. On the day of the Pokéathlon, Daniel got a lecture from Ash on how he wasn't being a very good Trainer, because his scientific training didn't consider Snorlax's feelings. After Daniel verified Ash's assertion that Snorlax was feeling tired with his scientific equipment, he started to believe that maybe Ash was right, and decided to leave Snorlax with Team Rocket, who were disguised as massage therapists. When Team Rocket tried to escape with Snorlax and Ash's Pikachu, Snorlax weighed down their balloon and was preventing them from escaping. Team Rocket decided to leave behind Snorlax in favor of a quick escape with Ash's Pikachu. Ash tried to use his Staraptor to save Pikachu, but to no avail, as it was defeated by Team Rocket. Snorlax, however, was able to save Pikachu by bouncing on a trampoline and crashing into Team Rocket's balloon. Daniel then used it in the final event of the day, the Hurdle Dash, where it raced against Ash's Pikachu, along with many other Pokémon and their Trainers. It managed to win the race by a very small margin due to its belly, followed closely in second by Ash's Pikachu. | ||

Hitmonlee was used by Daniel in the Disc Catch event, the first event of the day. It competed against Ash's Monferno, along with many other Pokémon and their Trainers. Although it fought very hard using its Fighting-type skills, Ash's Monferno was equally agile, which resulted in the two Pokémon tying for the win. Daniel was shocked that Ash and his Monferno were able to do as well as he and Hitmonlee were able to do in the event. | ||

From the very beginning of civil aviation in South Africa, when most of the pioneering was being done by voluntary enthusiasts who formed light plane clubs the Rand provided the greatest material support for those who were opening up air traffic in South Africa. In 1929 when Imperial Airways made it known that they definitely intended to organise a service to South Africa, the energy and vision of the Municipality of Germiston (afterwards backed up by the Johannesburg Civic Authorities) laid the foundation of what would eventually become Rand Airport.
Germiston Aerodrome was officially opened on Saturday 24 August 1929. The aerodrome consisted of a grass-covered field and a hangar.
In 1931 the various Governments concerned concluded arrangements with Imperial Airways to run a service from London to the Cape. The Germiston Municipality was officially approached by the Union Government to provide an adequate airport capable of handling day and night traffic and of housing aircraft larger than any previously used in South Africa. As a result of the negotiations the Germiston Town Council voted
5,000 for the conversion of the old aerodrome into a properly equipped airport, and work started at once. One large and one small hangar as well as an administrative office building and workshop for Imperial Airways were constructed. A complete floodlighting system was installed and a number of cottages built for the staff of Imperial Airways. Also erected were wireless masts for communication with the Imperial Airways aircraft.
The Governor-General, the Earl of Clarendon, officially opened Rand Airport on Saturday 19 December 1931. Over 2,500 people drove, rode or walked to the aerodrome to attend the opening. The following day, 20 December 1931, the first Imperial Airways airmail from London arrived at Rand Airport.
In 1932 a full-time airport manager was appointed. Imperial Airways traffic, both mail and passenger increased rapidly. South African Airways, formed on 1 February 1934, moved its headquarters from Durban to Rand Airport in 1935.
As a result of increased activity at Rand airport a decision was made to improve facilities and a new air station was built to provide adequate control of the movements of aircraft from a properly equipped control tower, and to cater for the comfort of passengers by means of waiting rooms, baggage hall, Customs office and restaurant. Up till the time of the erection of the air station passengers' baggage was dumped on the ground and sorted in the open while friends meeting air travellers were obliged to stand about in the open in all weathers for indefinite periods.
In addition, a clubhouse for the Rand Flying Club, a house for a resident Customs official, and a meteorological station were erected. Previous to the building of the clubhouse, flying club members were accommodated in a small reed roofed shack which, owing to the rapid increase in membership, soon became too small for them.
For the second time His Excellency the Governor-General, the Earl of Clarendon, officially opened the New Rand Airport on Monday 5 August 1935. At the time it was considered that sufficient development work had been done at the airport to last for many years. This was not so. The introduction of the Empire airmail, the continually increasing activity of South African Airways, the greater interest in private flying, all necessitated further development.
Soon after the opening in 1935 seven more hangars were erected, a larger clubhouse built for the Rand Flying Club, the South African Airways administrative building was greatly enlarged, and buildings, temporary and permanent provided for the petrol supply companies and flying schools operating from the airport. Even this was not sufficient and in 1939 work began on constructing two further hangars as well as extensions to existing hangars and alterations and additions to the air station. A mess for South African Airways staff, a wireless workshop and engine workshop were also constructed.
The terminal building has remained virtually the same since it was built. The only noticeable change is the addition of a new control tower which was added on top of the existing structure. A special feature of the 1935 terminal building was the flat roof, which to this day is open to the public and gives a fine view across the airport.

Revised Romanization | ssam |
McCune–Reischauer | ssam |
This article is part of a series on |
Korean cuisine 한국 요리 조선 료리 |
Korea portal |
Ssam, sometimes also transliterated as ssäm, meaning "wrapped", refers to a dish in Korean cuisine in which, usually, leafy vegetables are used to wrap a piece of meat such as pork or other filling.[1] It is often accompanied by a condiment known as ssamjang and can also be topped with raw or cooked garlic, onion, green pepper, or a banchan (small side dish) such as kimchi.[2] Ssam is usually bite-sized to avoid spilling out the fillings.[3]
According to the book of customs, Dongguk Sesigi, ssam was eaten by the women of the Goryeo era who had been taken as maids or ladies of the court to Mongol's Yuan Dynasty, and by the end of the Joseon era, ssam had become an established seasonal dish. On the day of Daeboreum, the ssam that was eaten on that holiday was called bokssam (복쌈, good fortune ssam).[1]
Ssam is also slowly gaining popularity outside of Korea and is being served at restaurants in New York City and Tokyo.[4][5]
Various vegetables are used as ingredients such as lettuce, cabbage, bean leaves, and pumpkin leaves, which are used either raw or blanched. Seaweed such as miyeok (sea mustard seaweed) and gim (dried laver) are also used. Ssam can be used to refer to dishes using beef tongue, roe, pork, clams, or sea cucumbers wrapped and cooked in eggs.[1]
By ingredients[edit]
- Bossam: with steamed pork, e.g. shoulder and is a popular dish throughout Korea.[6][7]
- Ssambap is a dish in which rice is included.[8]
By wrap type[edit]

There's no denying that the sisters look great, but there can only be one style Queen as you know. So we want to know who do you think looks best?

Direct and Indirect speech
Direct/Quoted speech is saying exactly what someone has said. It appears within quotation marks ("...") and should be word for word.
Direct speech repeats, or quotes, the exact words spoken. When we use direct speech in writing, we put the words spoken between inverted commas ("___") and there is no change in these words. We may be reporting something that's being said NOW, or telling someone later about a previous conversation
Indirect/Reported speech is enclosing what the person said. It doesn't use quotation marks and doesn't have to be word for word.
Indirect speech is usually used to talk about the past. When we use indirect speech, we don't use inverted comas. We should change the tense of the words spoken. We use reporting verbs for example say, ask, and we may use the word that to introduce the reported words.
Ø Hopes, Intentions, PromisesWhen we report an intention, hope or promise, we use an appropriate reporting verb followed by a that-clause or a to-infinitive:
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
He said, "I'll pay you the money tomorrow." | He promised to pay me the money the next day. He promised that he would pay me the money the next day. |
Other verbs used in this pattern include: hope, propose, threaten, guarantee, and swear.
Ø OrdersWhen we want to report an order, we can use a verb like tell with to-clause:
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
The doctor said to me, "Stop smoking!" | The doctor told me to stop smoking. |
"Get out of the car!" said the policeman. | The policeman ordered him to get out of the car. |
Other verbs used are: command, order, warn, ask, invite, advise, beg, teach, and forbid. <<See also section on Verbs followed by infinitive and Verbs followed by gerund>>
Ø RequestsWhen we want to report a request, we can use a verb like ask with for-clause:
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
The child asked, "Can I have a car?" | The child asked for a car. |
Suggestions are usually reported with a that-clause. That and should are optional in these clauses.
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
"I think you should go to the dentist", said my mother | My mother suggested that I should go to the dentist. |
Other verbs used are: insist, recommend, demand, request, and propose. Note: Suggest can also be followed by a gerund: I suggested postponing the visit to the dentist.
Ø Questions- Question words are reported by using ask (or another verb like ask) + question word + clause. <<see also section on Tense Change>>
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
She asked me, "Where do u live?" | She asked me where I lived. |
He asked me, "What is your name?" | He asked me what my name was. |
- Yes/No questions: This type of question is reported by using ask + if / whether + clause:
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
He asked me, "Are you Eastern or Western?" | He asked me whether I was Eastern or Western. |
There are rules in converting direct to indirect speech. The tense usually has change because when we use reported speech, we are usually talking about a time in the past (obviously the person who spoke originally spoke in the past).
Ø Tense ChangeAs a rule when we report something someone has said you go back a tense (the tense on the left changes to the tense on the right)
Direct Speech | Indirect Speech |
Present Simple He said, "It is hot." | Past Simple He said it was hot. |
Present Continuous She said, "I'm eating an apple." | Past Continuous She said she was eating an apple. |
Present Perfect Simple She said, "I've taught English since 1999." | Past Perfect Simple She said she had taught English since 1999. |
Present Perfect Continuous He said, "I've been teaching English for two years." | Past Perfect Continuous She said she had been teaching English for two years. |
Past Simple She said, "I taught English." | Past Perfect She said she had taught English. |
Past Continuous She said, "I was teaching earlier." | Past Perfect Continuous She said she had been teaching earlier |

Kirk's people responded to the request to meet with the bullied teens.
Here's a part of the letter from Kirk's manager:
He usually flies in the day of the event and after the event is actually traveling to the next one. Because of this intense schedule, there is not time to set up extra meetings like you are suggesting. That being said I would normally just write a simple reply, "Thanks for your invitation, however Kirk's schedule will not permit," but because you have taken some time to share some of your feelings, Kirk asked me to personally thank you on his behalf for your kind invitation and is very sorry he can not attend because of the schedule that weekend. I also want to thank you for taking the time to write and share your heart in your letter.
For this reason, I want to share this thought with you, from someone who sees and works with Kirk almost everyday of the year - I promise you his goal is not one of trying to hurt people in any way, in fact it is just the opposite. He has a concern for their well being - not only now, but eternally. He goes out to share a positive message through events like this weekend and I assure you he will only be presenting a positive/ inspiring message.
I would like to suggest if you really are interested in Kirk's thoughts on the matter, you can listen online to the interviews and comments Kirk has shared where he was given ample time to communicate his heart and thoughts. I hope you can attend the event and see for yourself.
We wish you the best, Mark Craig
Manager for Kirk Cameronsource

Anne Heyman, a pioneering Jewish philanthropist who founded a youth village for victims of the Rwanda genocide, has died in a Florida horse-riding accident. She was 52.
Heyman died after falling from a horse at the Palm Beach International Equestrian Center in the town of Wellington Friday morning. She was taken to a local hospital and pronounced dead at 1:30 p.m., said Eric Davis, a spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.
"She was a mother to all the children here," Jean-Claude Nkulikiyimfura, the school's director, told the Forward from the grief-stricken campus outside the Rwanda capital of Kigali. "Most of them are saying, 'God, why have you made me an orphan a second time.'"
UPDATE: Rwanda school for orphans plunged into mourning by death of 'second mother.'
"Each of us grieves not only for the passing of a tremendous woman and a true visionary, but also for the loss suffered by her family," said the Agahozo-Shalom Youth Village in a statement on its web site.
Rwanda's Minister of Youth and ICT, Jean P. Nsengimana Tweeted a message of mourning from the government.
"Your legacy will live on forever," he said. "Our thoughts are with your family and hundreds of youth in Agahozo Shalom Youth Village who just lost a mother."
Heyman fell off her horse during a master's jumper competition, Jennifer Wood, spokeswoman for the FTI Consulting Winter Equestrian Festival, told the Palm Beach Post.
"We are very sad to report that a rider fell from her horse today at our facility. EMTs attended to her immediately (but) she passed away," Wood told the paper.
Heyman, a New York lawyer and Jewish communal activist who was born in South Africa, viewed Israeli kibbutzes that took in Holocaust orphans as a model for coping with the hundreds of thousands of children orphaned by the Rwandan genocide.
Heyman and her husband Seth Merrin created the Agahozo-Shalom Youth Village to build a place where Rwandan orphans could go to live, study and help rebuild their country.
ASYV says its model combines three essential elements to encourage our youths' intellectual and emotional growth: loving support of a family, a structured education and enriching extracurricular program.
In addition to healing thousands of orphans, Heyman aimed to inspire ASYV graduates to serve the community, both locally and globally.
Just two weeks ago, Heyman presided over the school's graduation ceremony, which also marked the 20th anniversary of the 1994 killing spree in which hundreds of thousands were killed.
Heyman humbly told Rwanda's New Times paper that the school's extraordinary team both within and outside the country made the project a success.
"We have support from donors some of them we have never met," she told the paper.
Heyman graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1982 and from the George Washington School of Law in 1986. After two years in private practice Anne went to work for the Manhattan District Attorney's Office as a prosecutor.
She and her husband were key forces in Dorot, a Jewish charity, and have also served on boards of the Abraham Joshua Heschel School in New York, Young Judaea, Tufts University Hillel and the Jewish Community Centers of America, according to the Jewish Federations of North America.

PETITION: Reverse Citizens United
In an email sent out yesterday, Sen. Al Franken (MN) urged everyone to support his effort to roll back Citizens United – the Supreme Court precedent that granted corporations personhood (for all intents and purposes). Here's what he had to say:
Dear Tim,You don't need me to tell you how much damage Citizens United has caused in the three years since the decision came down. You just need to turn on a TV.Corporate-backed special interests own the airwaves come election time — and, all too often, they own our elections, too.We could mark the three-year anniversary of Citizens United by crying in our grape soda. Or we could mark it by fighting back.
Make no mistake: Progressives can still win big fights, even three years after Citizens United.But the longer we let this decision stand, the harder it's going to be. The more influence these corporate special interests have over our elections, the more influence they'll have over our government — and the harder it will be for us to enact reform.It's a vicious cycle. And that's why now is such an important moment for action.
There's nothing nice to say about Citizens United. And there's nothing to celebrate on its anniversary. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't do something to mark the occasion. Let's commit to undoing the effects of Citizens United — and let's restore our democracy.Thanks,AlP.S.: A billion dollars is a lot of money. But grassroots energy can beat a billion dollars. Click here to sign my petition to undo the effects of Citizens United.

I think 'awesome' is the closest, as both the literal and slang usages are fairly apt.

I was told that the best translation is 'wow'.
For better or worse, it's a general purpose exclamation. |

Phonetically (sp?), I'd pronounce it "soo-go-ee" with the "go" and "ee" sort of run together. What's cool about Japanese is once you know how to pronounce a syllable, it's the same no matter what the word is. It's just a matter of learning the syllabic characters and how they're pronounced. I've got some charts outlining the characters (Hiragana and Katakana). I also seem to remember seeing a site somewhere that had .wav files giving the pronounciations of some common Japanese words. Hope this helps

When run together, the "oo-ee" sound sounds like "oy", so English speakers speak (and hear)it as "sue-goy".

When in doubt on pronouncing Japanese words written in English style, refer to the vowel rules used in Spanish.

Ditto on using Spanish vowel sounds.
And if you're a guy, it should probably sound like "sue-gaaay", because that's how the masculine vowel shift goes. (terminal oi->ei) |

Sugoi, in my mind (since I have an inner-monologue spoken in L33t), means "Sw33t!" ("Sweet!").
Now, here's a quick lesson on Japanese pronunciation: - Japanese words have MANY different spellings in Romanji. There is no "correct" way to spell a word in Romanji, so it's a closest-match case at all times. IE: You can spell the word for "no" in Romanji in many ways: i-e, iie, iye (and so on). - There are MANY dialects of Japanese, just as there are of English. Each has its own set of rules on how to say certain pronunciations, however, they usually all follow a basic set. Tokyo-ites have this set of rules that deviate from normal Japanese pronunciation: 1) trailing "u" sounds on most sylables are shortened to the point of almost being silent. The name "asuka", for instance, would be pronounced "ahs-kah" (as in Neon Genesis Evangelion). 2) resonated sounds normally silent are pronounced in some sylables. "si" becomes "shi". 3) When not followed directly by a vowel, "m" sounds are spoken as "n" sounds. In normal Japanese speech, "m" and "n" are interchangable at will, but apparently in Tokyo, "m" is never used. This is not the case in instances with "m" / "n" are followed by a vowel. I'm still trying to figure it out, but apparently, there are sylables that require an "m" sound, even in Tokyo. 4) trailing vowel sounds are elongated (with the exception of "u". The Romanji would go from "sho" to "shou" or "sho-". 5) Men tend to use "-chan" a lot more than their non-Tokyo-ite brethren, although "-kun" and "-san" still dominate the suffix field. "-sama" is almost never spoken in Tokyo, however "-senpai" is. - Don't try to speak "Tokyo-nese" to an Japanese immigrant in America. They'll stand there, staring at you like you're some freak. You should, instead, speak the formal Japanese pronunciations. Don't say "kahts" in the place of "kahtsoo", or "ahs-kah" in the place of "ahsoo-kah". And above all else, don't say "ohnayguy sheemahsh" in the place of "ohnayguy seemahsoo". Apparently, when "Tokyo-nese" is spoken with a thick American accent, it's uninteligible. - Male speech is different from Female speech. There is a vowel-shift on certain sylables. For instance, "soo-goy" would be spoken "soo-gay" when spoken by a male. (however, in my opinion, it's more like "soo-geh".) The rules on this are not very well set in stone. It seems to me that males are taught a totally different language from birth, with a completely different set of rules and diction. Since most characters in Anime are female, those of us who learn Japanese from that tend to speak Japanese like 15-year-old girls. (Though, apparently in Tokyo, this is a common practice by young men under 30 years of age.) Now, don't get me wrong. I'm not proficient in Japanese speech. I don't claim to be. However, I do know enough to order at my favorite udon restaurants here in San Francisco, as well as carry on a slight bit of conversation with the wait staff. |

I know I probably should stay quiet here, since I didn't learn Japanese for very long, and things may have changed since then. But there are so many points here that push my pedant buttons that I can't help replying.
quote: And if you use that last one, people will be very unhappy with you. "yi" and "ye" syllables did exist historically, though they're no longer used, so using things that look like them in romaji is a bad idea. quote: As far as I'm aware (I could be wrong here), that's not a Tokyo-ism, unless it applies to more syllables than just "su" and "tsu". As I was taught the language, those two in particular tend to have very shortened vowel sounds, especially at the end of words, but the others don't show it nearly so much. quote: This is not a Tokyo-ism, at least in that particular case. The syllable that appears in the kana charts at the point you would expect "si" is always pronounced "shi". Whether it should be romanised according to its kana position (which would indicate "si") or its actual pronunciation ("shi") is one of the main distinguishing points of the two main romaji schemes. (The same distinction applies to "chi", where the charts would indicate "ti", and "tsu", where the charts would indicate "tu".) quote: In normal Japanese, "m" never occurs without being followed by a vowel (ie, "ma", "mi", "mu", "me" and "mo" are all valid syllables, but there is no "m"). There "n" syllable is often pronounced more as "m" (this may well be a Tokyo-ism), but it's still officially defined as "n" in all romanisation schemes of which I am aware. quote: This goes for any foreign language (including English, should that not be your native language) - speak the language as taught, not some dialect, unless you're very fluent in the language in question. quote: Although you didn't list it as such, this is described as an aspect of the Tokyo dialect in a paper on "standard" and "non-standard" language forms, which was the only relevant hit I found in a quick Google search. (It's a PDF, but Google has a text version. quote: From elementary school, according to the above paper. quote: They've probably also picked up their speech patterns from anime and other TV shows, if that is the case - the paper mentioned above cites mass media as one of the channels by which the Tokyo dialect has spread around the country. (However, it doesn't seem to have actually displaced regional speech - instead, they seem to coexist in most places.) Mind you, I'm not sure that the assertion is actually true. Certainly many of the mainstream-popular shows tend to feature younger characters (so even the male characters will be less likely to use the speech patterns common to older males), but then there's stuff like "Gundam Wing", where all the main characters are male...

I have an m835 rooted and rom'd(mate5). My wife dropped hers in a cup of coffee, dried it out and now it is stuck in safe mode. I've done a battery pull to no avail. If I rice it for a day or two, will it boot up normally, or stay in safe mode until I restore a nandroid? We have alot of apps on the sd card, they show up in manage applications, but not in the app drawer. Nandroid backup is two months old and it will likely require alot of work to get it up to date. Also, nandroid was made before prl updated, will I need to update that again after I restore said nandroid? Thanks to all responders.
Rice should fix it, unless the coffee had Sugar in it, in which case i would say to either get a new phone or restore the nandroid and see how it goes. Sorry i can't help you much i don't usually do this kind of stuff ;_;
Update: restored nandroid, did not fix the problem. I made sure we riced the phone for two days, while powering on my wife smacked the phone a few times to unstick the buttons. Surprisingly, it worked. Now I know, it doesn't need to be restored, it just needs to be dried out and I need to make sure the buttons don't stick, internally as well as physically. Hope this helps someone in the future.

Limitations of the matrix
The read-write matrix provides a model for analysing the roles of learners in working with documents in a Web 2.0 context. The complexity of Web 2.0 tools, however, has prompted me to explore ways of extending the model to provide more detail, including different forms of contribution and collaboration. In addition, some readers have found the two-dimensional matrix difficult to interpret.
I've been wondering for some time how to show additional dimensions to the read-write matrix. This is necessary because it's helpful to distinguish between different sorts of editing rights. For example, the blog reader cannot usually edit someone else's blog posting but can normally add comments to it.
We can simplify the read-write matrix by considering only three user types:
- self (the learner)
- peers (fellow learners enrolled in the same course)
- the world
We can now assign a value to each of these user types based on the ability to:
- read the document
- comment on the document
- edit the document
Table 1: mapping the roles
We can now create a simple table for any given application of Web 2.0 tools:
Edit | Comment | Read | |
Self | X | X | X |
Peers | X | X | |
World | X |
We can use such a table to define clearly how we might want a specific wiki or blog activity set up for a learning activity, and we can use it to communicate to teachers and/or students how an activity is meant to work. A simple tick or cross in a cell shows that that user type has that role.
Table 2: the geek version
And for the more technically-minded, we can steal an idea from Unix's chmod to provide a shorthand way of describing the characteristics of the activity:
Edit | Comment | Read | |
Self | 4 | 2 | 1 |
Peers | 4 | 2 | 1 |
World | 4 | 2 | 1 |
We now have a shorthand way to describe the read-write roles within a learning activity using (say) a blog or wiki – add the values in each row that apply and show as a three-digit number. The roles shown in table 1 would be 731. (I'm not sure that this version will be popular, however!)
Where to from here?
We could easily extend either version to include the additional user types in the read-write matrix: the sub-group of peers and the wider group of a learning community. We could also add other types of contribution in addition to commenting and editing: eg annotation or bookmarking.
In addition, I envisage simple planning tools which incorporate something like table 1 to help communicate decisions around educational use of Web 2.0 tools to other teachers, technical support staff and learners. The table extends the read-write matrix by adding detail to the types of collaborative contribution, but also provides a simple means of communicating the analysis to others.

G20 leaders at their summit meeting in November 2010 requested FAO, IFAD, IMF, OECD, UNCTAD, WFP, the World Bank, and the WTO to work with key stakeholders "to develop options for G20 consideration on how to better mitigate and manage the risks associated with the price volatility of food and other agriculture commodities, without distorting market behaviour, ultimately to protect the most vulnerable."
The preparation of this report, coordinated by the FAO and the OECD, has been undertaken in a truly collaborative manner by FAO, IFAD, IMF, OECD, UNCTAD,WFP, the World Bank, the WTO, IFPRI and the UN HLTF. The report was submitted to the French Presidency of the G20 on 2 June 2011.

Bond Strength of All-Ceramics to Tooth Structure Using New Luting Systems
Toman, Muhittin / Toksavul, Suna / Akin, Ash
Purpose: To examine the effect of different adhesive luting systems on the shear bond strength of all-ceramic restorations to dentin surfaces. Materials and Methods: Forty-eight all-ceramic disks (2 x 3 mm; IPS e.max Press) were fabricated. Forty-eight noncarious extracted human molars were divided into 4 groups. In groups 1 to 4, IPS e.max Press disks were luted with Variolink 2/Excite DSC (etch-and-rinse), Clearfil Esthetic Cement/Clearfil Protect Bond (antibacterial and self-etching), Multilink/Multilink Primer (self-etching), or Multilink Sprint (self-adhesive). All specimens were subjected to 5000 thermocycles (5�C to 55�C, 30-s dwell time). Shear bond strengths were tested using a universal testing machine until failure. The analysis of the fractured dentin surfaces was performed using an optical microscope at 10X and 1000X magnification; the images were analyzed with an image analyzer. Data were analyzed with one-way ANOVA and Tukeys test at a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: Mean shear bond strength data of the groups in MPa were: Variolink 2/Excite DSC: 25.89 � 3.71; Clearfil Esthetic Cement/Clearfil Protect Bond: 17.21 � 2.71; Multilink/Multilink Primer: 11.6 � 3.51; Multilink Sprint: 10.4 � 3.15. According to the one-way ANOVA, there were significant differences in shear bond strength (p < 0.001). According to Tukeys test, statistically significant differences were observed in shear bond strength between groups 1 and 2 (p < 0.001), groups 1 and 3 (p < 0.001), groups 1 and 4 (p < 0.001), groups 2 and 3 (p = 0.003), and groups 2 and 4 (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The etch-and-rinse dentin bonding system produced higher bond strengths of all-ceramics to dentin surfaces than did the self-etching bonding systems and self-adhesive luting system. Keywords: shear bond, self-adhesive, dentin bonding, all-ceramic

GE - Solenoid Function?
Model Number: 5134 Brand: -brand- Age: Less than 1 year
D/W won't drain. Last time, several months ago, I found the piston/nut in hideous condition. Replaced it. Flapper valve was fine. Unit worked great. Now it isn't draining again. I ran the test cycles and when I manually put it to the last step, draining, the drain pump runs and the tank empties perfectly. When a cycle runs it does not empty at all, just a little trickle. The difference between the two is the normal cycle, on drain, the main motor is still running and the solenoid pulls in. In the test cycle only the little drain pump is running and the solenoid is not energized. Thoughts? And, no, I have not checked the two valves (yet). What does the solenoid do? My guess is that with the main pump running maybe there is some pressure holding open the return valve from the collection chamber back into the tub? Related Models |

I am not at home now and do not have the model # beyond what is listed. There most definitely is a second pump, unless I am confusing the main motor as being connected to a pump as well? To what else would this main motor be connected? When in the test modes, all mid-sequence steps that do a drain action, the main pump runs and the solenoid pulls in. There is little or no draining when this is going on. The very last step, the main pump shuts off, the solenoid is not pulled in and only the little drain pump runs. I have not measured to see if power is being applied to the small pump when these intermediate test steps are running.
Here is a thread from another forum which closely matches your situation.
Appliance Tech\'s Private Board >> GE Dishwasher Drain Problems It seems that the flapper valve solenoid and the drain pump should both be energized. Looks like the pump just helps the main motor / flapper valve a little. The flapper valve directs the water to the drain instead of up to the wash arms. It receives about a 10 second pulse from the timer, once the solenoid/flapper is in the drain position the force of the water keeps it in the drain position until the unit is empty. Take a look under the unit for the wiring diagram. It should have a timing chart. Could be taped to the tud or the back of the kick plate.
Thanks, I think I am getting a feel for its operation. The small pump apparently is used to empty the sump out? That is the impression I am getting from what info I can find. When I do a 'test' run (rinse only) I haven't noticed the little pump coming on at the end (to empty the sump), which would be witnessed by a short burst of water in the drain. It seems logical that the small pump is indeed a 'boost' to get the flapper seated properly. I will have to pull the main pump off and see what I can find. I didn't see any actual timings in the tech sheet I pulled from under the tub. The only timings it listed were in the test modes. If the test modes are indicative of the actual cycle times, there were two drains in the middle that were I think 60 seconds and then the very final one, using the small pump, of 70 seconds. I am curious as to the 'circuitry' of the drain system. It looks like the small pump pulls from the sump right into the collection chamber. I guess this then forces the spring loaded collection valve shut and diverts to the drain port.
OK, I am back in country. Pulled apart the the D/W and found the flapper valve on the second drain pump ("dual pump" in GE-speak) was totally missing. I guess this is it - when the solenoid pulls in all the water runs through the drain pump back into the tank - there isn't any back pressure to force the valve closed in the collection box.
I've ordered one and will report back if it is not the cause. |

Songstress... Huh... Yea
I'm gonna take you on a ride to a lyrical expedition
In vision, imagine this, I be wishin that everybody would listen
Kissing ass until I was able to step into the arena,
Make an impression and lesson and discovering
I out-smarted mathmaticans, blazed through expeditions,
Thru conditions not envisioned by those who pass predictions
In addition got a mission, a vision, if you would listen
Produce collaboration increasing complications
You understand how my Floetry got you bubblin'(uh)
I see you wonderin why you hear my name again (uh)
Never the same again, yes we came to win again
And if we fail again then love will conquer pain again
Just take a breath and continue the explanation
Turn off the playstation, still in my attention
Did I mention poetic extention - my redemption
Soul is in suspension at the realisation.
With poor libation for ethnic formation
Empower this position... More come to listen
[yo F-L-O-E-T-are-Y get it?] Floetry is like a master of chemistry turn your negativity into kinetic energy
You can't test we
No no you can't test we... See?
Subtracting abstract messages from within that's what I'm giving
That's what I'm giving
That's what I'm giving(x2)

I got a call this evening, from a county sheriff. She just wanted me to know that she had given my daughter a speeding citation. Beth was driving 60mph in a 45mph zone and got pulled over.
So now, on top of paying for gas and insurance, she's got a ticket to pay for. And her hours at work have been cut down this week.
What's interesting is that if the police talk to anyone under 18, they have to tell their parents. But those kids in Maine (and probably elsewhere) can get birth control, and no one has to tell their parents.

Bucharest Metroarts update
The Bucharest Metroarts project is an amazing artistic intervention, improving the quality of the public space of the metro in Bucharest and leading people to the city's great museums. Artists worked closely with the museums and proposed different projects which were then voted for by the museums and the public. I was lucky enough to be one of the chosen artists, but the recession has led to funding difficulty and the project has been delayed. Here's an update... click

[ Index | Bars & Clubs | Silicon Valley | Metroactive Home | Archives ]
Life During Bar-Time
This year, barhopping is not so much a fashion as it is a prescription. Whether or not you crave the salve of alcohol, the ongoing trials and tribulations of the outside world are enough to cast club bumping and pub hobnobbing in an increasingly congenial light.
There's a reason the bar-based sitcom 'Cheers' reached popularity back in the early '80s: when a bad economy rears its head, the public bows theirs over a sudsy beer and takes to the comfort of companionship.
That, however, will be the last mention of the bad economy in this, Metro's flagrantly comprehensive 2003 Bars & Clubs guide. Because what barhopping is really all about is not the buck, but the bang (to anyone who thought it was about the pickled eggs--sorry, no, and please make an appointment with your family physician).
To assist in the search for this latter and much more addictive quality, we the divine editorial staff at Metro diligently visited each and every bar reviewed in this issue, carefully testing the comfiness of the bar stools, the timeliness of the jukebox and juiciness of the limes, in order to make sure that you are getting your funny money's worth out of these fine establishments.
Most importantly, we engaged in an extensive hands-on investigation of the alcoholic beverages themselves, after which we rushed home to regurgitate copious notes and recipes and to catch the last few minutes of America's Next Top Model.
Having put the work in, Metro's editorial bars staff feels a jigger more qualified to comment on some of the trends this year: namely, that there are no trends. Theme nights, in which a party production team takes over a club, remakes and renames it for a night, continue to grow increasingly popular and increasingly more elaborate, and the South Bay continues to be party central for these raves, with the newest hot spot, Blue Tattoo, set to open June 26.
On the other hand, continuing last year's drift, quantity drinking of quality blue-collar beers such as Hamm's and PBR keeps on truckin'. SoFA carries on its spike-heeled march toward L.A. with the opening of Agenda's sister spot Zoë and the one-year anniversary of the well-draped Cabana. And finally, the Blank Club fills the hole in South Bay's indie-music heart, and we love them for it.
The bartender has always played the part of the everyman's therapist--what the valley really needs these days is a cruise director. To that end, let us adjust our blond wig and sailor's cap and invite you to climb on board. This ship is about to set sail.

Scheduled Caste, Scheduled Tribe or Other Backward Class people from one state will not be entitled to reservation in jobs and educational institutions outside their state, the Supreme Court has ruled.
It means an SC, ST or OBC person coming to Delhi from another state cannot claim a reserved seat in Delhi government's educational institutions such as Indraprastha University or in its bureaucracy.
But nothing changes for educational institutions run by the Central government such as the Delhi University and the all-India services – the reserved seats will be open to people from all over the country.
A bench reversed a Delhi HC verdict that allowed OBC candidates from other states to avail of quota benefits in the National Capital Territory.
"Merely because a particular caste is specified in one state as belonging to OBCs does not necessarily mean that if there be another group belonging to the same nomenclature in another state and a person belonging to that group is entitled to the privileges and benefits admissible to the members of that caste," the court said.
The court agreed with petitioners Subhash Chandra and Sarv Rural and Urban Welfare Society that a person belonging to a caste notified as SC in one state cannot automatically claim benefit due to the same caste in another state or Union Territory.
Constitutional expert Shanti Bhushan said, "It appears to be a correct interpretation of constitutional provisions."

Create *.java file dynamicaly
Hi all,
I am writing a code which is generating .java and .xml files dyanamically.
For xml files I am using javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory .
My xml files are generating correctly but I have some queries regarding genrerating .java files.
I want to create a java file which will have some methods and variables.
Is there any way to do this?
Is there any java classes or libraries to do this?
- 07-01-2011, 01:58 PM #2I want to create a java file which will have some methods and variables.
Are you asking if there is a Java statement generator engine? The only one I know of is the one in front of the keyboard.
I've used Sun's Codemodel API to generate Java source from an XML specification. It seems to have been abandoned when Oracle acquired Sun, and it's not very well documented, but it's worked well for me.
CodeModel — Java.net
Codemodel 2.4 APIGet in the habit of using standard Java naming conventions!
Here's an example of how I used it. Note that although I defined the classes, methods, and fields the "right" way, when it came to generating the method bodies, I mostly cheated and used JBlock.directStatement(...).
