So I figured that I would post some of the progress with EDB. I've been very happy with the function analysis engine that I developed, but there is one thing that it completely ignores, basic block analysis. Of course in order to identify functions it does technically break things down into blocks, but this information is discarded when a whole function is identified.
The main reason for this is that I had no real practical way to display this information in a useful way to users. A list of blocks wouldn't do, there would simply be to many for anyone to make sense of them. Some other tools have a nice solution though…graphs :).
So I figured that it's time EDB got a graphing plugin of sorts. And that's where my focus has been lately. Finally after playing with the awesome QGraphicsView API, I have some results that are worth noting.
As you can see, it is looking pretty nice. All of the nodes are draggable so if you don't like how it is layed out, you can adjust it. Of course it isn't quite ready yet, otherwise I would have just tossed it into EDB and bumped the version. There are two major things I need to figure out.
- How big do I make the whole scene? Right now I just go with "very big", but eventually, I'll have to figure this out based on the content. This is very dependant on issue #2 though…
- I have no automatic layout engine. Currently in my test code, I've manually placed each node. This is likely to prove very difficult, but I'll get there (Obviously if any graph experts out there want to help, feel free to email me ;-)).
Beyond that, I'm feeling pretty good about how it works.
You may be wondering why I didn't just use GraphViz. Well, to be honest, I looked into it. But there didn't seem to be any nice and simple way to get the results into a Qt widget. As far as I can tell, the API revolves around programatically generating a .dot file, and sending that through one of the graphviz renderer's. Then taking the output file and finally displaying it. I don't like all the temporary files and the dependency on external programs. I'm not a fan of "front-ends" in general, otherwise EDB would just be another GDB front end.
Though if I could do a pure library solution, I could work with the temporary files. Obviously I could have missed something in graphviz, if so, let me know :).
I hope to have things nice and ready for release soon.

Mark Miller was a bank executive at Oakwood Deposit Bank, Ohio. He was a much respected member of the local community and a member of the high school board. He has now admitted to manipulating bank records since 1999 and stands accused of stealing up to $40m.
The US Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC) closed the bank's two branches in Oakwood in February and has already paid out much of the money covered under the terms of its charter. But at least $9m in deposits were uninsured. Big losers include The Wayne Trace school district and the county-owned local hospital. Both lost nearly $1m. Stockholders lost everything - around $6m.
Miller, 47, admits that he manipulated bank records, but denies charges of money laundering and embezzlement.
He is currently free on $1m bail, but is confined to his house.

Pracs Institute
PRACS Institute, Ltd., established in 1983, is a company that tests new or developing types of medicine. Its CEO is Dr. James Carlson, a former pharmacy professor at North Dakota State University. The company currently has locations in East Grand Forks, Minnesota and Fargo, North Dakota.
In February 2006, PRACS announced it would become a wholly owned subsidiary of Contract Research Solutions (CRS). CRS was formed as a holding company by investors, including Carlson and two others: KRG Capital Partners, and the Weinberg & Bell Group. In August 2006, CRS announced the acquisition of Gateway Medical Research, a St. Louis-based competitor of PRACS. CRS also announced in late 2006 that it had acquired Ba Research International of Houston, TX. The three companies (PRACS, Gateway and Ba) will combine their operations under the name Cetero Research.
On October 5, 2006, Dr. Carlson announced a $1 million pledge to the city of Fargo towards the construction of a new branch of the city's public library. The project (with a total cost of $2.5 million) will be named the "Dr. James D. Carlson Library".
On March 20, 2013, PRACS laid off its employees in Fargo, St. Louis, and Toronto after filing for chapter 7 bankruptcy. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

Police charged 273 people with drinking driving, breath tested 11,796 drivers, and issued more than 500 infringements to speeding motorists over the holiday weekend.
But despite nearly 700 major crashes leading to 196 people being injured, there were no fatalities on the state's roads.
Acting superintendent Mark Cook, of the Traffic and Highway Patrol Command, urged motorists to slow down due to continued wet weather conditions and reduced visibility.
"With groups of people still returning from school holidays, we are urging all motorists to plan their trip by checking for road closures and ensuring they feel confident to drive in the weather conditions," Acting Superintendent Cook said.

A 2007 Breakthrough Congregation
Can I just say that this teal hymnal has been responsible for the rejuvenation of our worship service! We use it almost exclusively for services and there seems to be a song for every moment. I believe those who learn to use this valuable resource will not only add more life to their services, but will also be promoting a hymnal that is diverse and eclectic, the essence of UUism (Unitarian Universalism), which in time will ultimately increase your overall church membership.

Former 2nd lady Joan Mondale dies
Joan Mondale, who built a reputation as a national cultural arts advocate while her husband was vice president, has died.
Her family issued a statement through their church saying she died Monday afternoon with family by her side.
Mondale was so passionate about the arts that she was nicknamed "Joan of Art." She herself was an avid potter when her husband Walter, then a Democratic U.S. senator from Minnesota, was elected Jimmy Carter's vice president in 1976.
Carter named Joan Mondale honorary chairwoman of the Federal Council on the Arts and Humanities. She traveled frequently to museums, theaters and artists' studios on the administration's behalf, and lobbied Congress and the states for more spending on public arts programs.

Cambodian labor dispute drags on as more strikes threatened
Prolonged labor unrest in Cambodia's garment industry shows no sign of ending, with both trade unions and employers unwavering over their respective stances on minimum wages.
The unions are demanding that the industry's minimum wage be doubled to $160 a month, effective immediately. Some employers, meanwhile, have threatened to end local production if the dispute drags on or the wage hike happens.
Major international apparel brands that outsource production to garment factories in Cambodia have so far avoided direct involvement in the dispute. Unions are starting to criticize this inaction.
The unions launched a general strike in December, forcing many garment factories to suspend operations.
Union leaders warned at a press conference on Jan. 15 that another work stoppage could happen unless the Cambodian government agrees to negotiate over wage demands.
The Cambodian government, hoping to end the labor dispute quickly, announced plans in December to raise the minimum wage in phases to $160 a month, in 2018. The unions rejected this proposal, saying that workers need higher wages right now.
Three sides
According to Cambodia's association of employers, that strike resulted in $90 million in lost sales. Also, around 20 companies have decided to withdraw from the country or are considering doing so, citing the rise in wages.
Some foreign apparel companies with outsourced production in Cambodia have expressed sympathy with the unions. Swedish fashion brand Hennes & Mauritz, better known as H&M, issued a statement in October calling for the Cambodian government to review the nation's minimum wage system.
The Garment Manufacturers Association in Cambodia (GMAC) has criticized such moves by foreign apparel companies. "They care only about the time of delivery," said Ken Loo, the GAMC's secretary general.
Loo also said that foreign apparel makers have been reluctant to agree to pay more to Cambodian garment factories for contract manufacturing, citing tough global competition.
The unions, too, have become critical of foreign apparel makers. They say that they will start negotiations with foreign companies on hikes in commission rates if garment factories cannot afford to raise wages.

The Parent Trap: Kids and Obsessions—May The Force Be With You
My five-year-old son and I were playing Star Wars charades.
Same thing, every time. He played out some scene or action. I, with little emotion, tiredly went through the few characters I knew at the time: Luke. Han Solo. Darth Vader. Leia.
After many exasperated "no's" from him, my twelve-year-old son happens through the room and throws out a quick, bored "General Grevious" (pictured right, for those who may need a bit of help picturing the character) to an excited "YES!" from Mr. Five-Year-Old.
General WHO? I ask?
I was sadly out of touch with the Star Wars universe.
When my son first happened upon this obsession many months ago it consumed his (and therefore my) every minute. My reaction was always "No! Not more!! " After awhile, I decided it was time to be a typical parent about the whole thing and totally find worth in his obsession. I boned up on Star Wars characters, watched a movie or two with and him, and best of all, turned it into a learning tool for him. I found my saving grace, The ABC of Star Wars. We then did alphabet flashcards: he had to say the letter, then a character or anything from Star Wars that started with that letter sound.
After applying the academics of Star Wars, he was extremely proficient with all his letters and letter sounds in an amazingly short period of time. I also used it as a very useful bartering tool. He would do just about anything to work towards a new Star Wars Lego set or book.
Like a well-worn, much loved, tattered stuffed animal, these obsessions grab our kids. From the time my son gets up and uses his cereal spoon as a light saber, until the moment he lays his head on his Ewok pillow, these familiar items are part of his every day. And I'll bet my Millennium Falcon that his dreams are filled with George Lucas creations, as well.
Obsessions have an important place in our kids' worlds. They bring comfort to them, let them be in control for awhile, let them be leaders. Obsession and interests allow them to make instant connections with other kids and bring some reliability to their real worlds. They help fuel their imagination and help them make order out of things they may seem chaotic to them.
Think how good it feels when we are the go-to-guy or gal, when we are the expert in our field. People come to us when they need advice or more information. Hand this feeling over to your kids and let them be it for awhile. Let them enjoy that feeling of top dog in their chosen "field of expertise".
Without even knowing it, we get pulled into these obsessions. I found myself, whenever out shopping, subliminally looking for Star Wars items… place mats, food items, dish sets, cups, t-shirts, you name it. In previous years I have done the same with John Deere, Playmobil, Lego (still doing that one), Elmo, fairies, Disney princesses. The list goes on and on. We love to be part of what our kids are doing, and it can be fun to step into their world for bit (or a lot). Remember too, how fun and rewarding it can be to learn from them (see The Parent Trap, July 31, 2011).
Ask me to play charades now. I'll rock.
Years ago, a good friend of mine had a three-year-old son who was truck obsessed. Vehicles too, but mainly trucks. So much in fact that his parents took him on neighborhood "truck walks" where he could spot trucks and with permission, touch them. His obsession and interest prompted his parents to make a new rule: no truck books unless they included some new, unlearned material. In other words, enough with the trucks already, but since we can't get over it, lets go through it the smart way. Take his interest and in place of making it the same thing over and over, add new material and turn it into a learning experience.
A couple of years ago when I needed to know the technical difference between a grader and a scraper, I knew who to go to, no question. Sure, he was 12 now, but he still knew the answer.
Here is an example of how we as parents can try to get them past their obsession or attempt to change it, to no avail: I was watching this same truck-loving boy for a few months, along with my own three-year-old at the time. His mom was expecting baby number two. I decided in all my wisdom, to remove all my truck books and replace them with "welcoming a new baby" books. I packed away his much loved, looking-forward-to-at Betsy's-house books and got out every book I had used only months before with my daughter when her bother was born: new babies, families getting larger, families, becoming a big sibling, changes and dealing with not being an only child anymore.
When he came over the next day, I ceremoniously showed him the books and explained since his mommy was having a baby, I got out all these books about mommies having babies. He looked puzzled, then brightened and asked "Mommy trucks having baby trucks?"
So much for my wisdom. I put all the truck books back out within five minutes.
What I failed to realize was that at that time in his life, when a huge change was about to happen, he needed that comfort, the familiarity of his trucks. He needed to be in charge, to know he could count on something safe, something he loved, something he could control. I also failed to realize that while we can try to steer our kids from their love interests or minimize their effect, we can't make them go away completely. Most will, one day, grow out of whatever fad or obsession fills their days and nights. They will move on to something else, sometimes every bit as all-encompassing, sometimes not nearly so.
Experts agree about how important these interests can be to younger children.
This, from sixtysecondparent:
Developmentally a toddler is trying to gain independence and control over his or her behavior and environment. Children of this age may sometime seem to withdraw into their own world and become self-absorbed with a particular idea or item. Having something upon which they focus or with which they feel comfortable gives them that sense of control and security as they move out toward more independence.
How do you know when the behavior becomes a problem?
The behavior may become a problem when an interest in tractors prevents your child from other experiences. An interest turns into an obsession, in the negative sense of the word, when the need to have or to play with that item is something the child feels he must have or do, even though it may cause your child to feel bad.
My almost-three-year-old has a fun (note the sarcasm) obsession: tap shoes. My ears, my mind and every nerve is jaggling with an endless tappity-tap-tap. But darn if she doesn't look cute. Still trying to figure a great learning experience to glean from that one. Count those taps!
Another benefit to these interests is the instant connection they bring when meeting with or playing with other kids. How comforting for our kids to walk into a new situation, not know anyone, yet immediately see another kid with a soccer ball in hand or a Disney Princess shirt on. It's like a secret handshake; instant acceptance. That exact obsession that is driving us nuts just drove our kids to a comfort zone, a place where they can have fun, engage in some spectacular imaginative play, share all they know and maybe learn a little more.
Tween obsessions carry all the same benefits. For them, it is usually a member of the opposite sex that they obsess about. For me it was Shaun Cassidy, then those Duke boys, Bo and Luke. This is a safe way for kids to start dealing with the idea of boyfriends and girlfriends. Yes, horribly annoying, and their rooms can be wallpapered with the likeness of their crush, but it is phase, and will pass. It is also like a road map for us as parents, alerting us to what lies ahead, and not too far off. It allows us to see our kids in that way and start to understand the newer feelings they are having.
So take a deep breath and realize that Dora, Bay Blades or Justin Bieber aren't the enemy. See if you can try to get some learning out of it all, possibly some quiet time for you, or use is as a most helpful carrot when chores need to be done.
I got over Shaun Cassidy and even Bo and Luke. I must admit though, I have met many an adult who still is obsessed with Star Wars.
In this crazy maze of tiny and not so tiny people obsessed with everything from cupcakes to monster trucks, may the force of the obsession be with you.

HE SPENT thousands scouring the world for his dream girl.
Now unemployed graduate Adam Pacitti is using the power of advertising to find a job.
He is so desperate for work he claims he has spent his last £500 on a billboard and social media campaign.
The 24-year-old from the Isle of Wight, who graduated with a first class degree in media production from the University of Winchester, said he had no regrets spending £6,000 on a previous viral campaign to literally find the girl of his dreams.
Adam, of Ryde, said: "I'm very happy I did it because it turned out to be a successful viral campaign.
"It looks good to any advertising agencies looking at my work and, if anything, will be a boost to my prospects."
The campaign, revealed by the Daily Echo in 2008, came about after Adam sketched a girl he dreamed about, who bore a striking resemblance to the title character from TV show Ugly Betty, and embarked on a two-year quest across nine countries to find her.
He created a website, thegirlofmydreams.co.uk, which had more than four million hits by the time the campaign ended in 2010.
But it has not helped his financial situation as he looks for work during a bad time for the economy.
Now he has rented a north London billboard and launched a website to try to secure a job in the media.
Adam said: "I finished at Win-chester where I got my first class deg-ree and managed to get a job at an arcade over the summer. "But that was seasonal work and I really wanted to get into media production. "I only had a small amount of money set aside and so I thought the billboard would be a good plan.
"So last Monday I went up to London for a look at it and stuck some pictures on my website, and when I woke up the next morning I had 7,000 people retweeting the pictures on Twitter."
He added: "It's taken about two and a half months to get the campaign going and sort out the website, but it's become my second successful viral campaign.
"I think a lot of countries are in the same position as England at the moment where it's difficult to find a job, so people around the world can empathise with me.
"I really hope this works as I have worked hard on it and I am starting to get interest now, so I could even get a job within the next week."
Adam has attracted international attention, including interviews with a South Korean television channel, and he has also received thousands of messages of support.

Research Interests
The focus of our research is in the molecular modeling of biointerphases. Our work is aimed at the fundamental understanding of the properties of complex molecular systems that encompass problems at the interface between medicine, biology, chemistry, physics and materials science. Our group concentrates on the development and application of theoretical approaches that enable the study of the systems of interest at the molecular level. The results of these studies are then used in the design of optimal materials that interact with biological environments, Most of our projects are carried out in close collaboration with experimental collaborators. Our theoretical work has the dual purpose of: 1) the fundamental understanding of what are the molecular factors that determine the properties and behavior of the interactions between biological environments and synthetic systems, and 2) the ability to predict in a quantitative way experimental systems in order to use the theoretical approaches as a device tool for the engineer of new materials, such as biocompatible materials and drug carriers.
Specific systems of interest include: protein adsorption and biocompatible materials, lipid layers and model cell membranes, drug delivery systems, ligand-receptor binding and smart (reponsive) materials.

Knocking Down the 'Maturity Wall'By and
"Market conditions have clearly eased"
In the credit markets, it's called the "maturity wall"—the $1.2 trillion of corporate debt that will have to be paid off or refinanced over the next five years. The worry is that with bank lending at about a quarter of its pre-crisis levels, there will be a second wave of corporate debt defaults to rival last year's record $628 billion.
Over the past 15 months, though, the wall has been getting less fearsome. One reason: Investors have been pouring cash into mutual funds that invest in risky debt, making more money available to companies that want to refinance debt. "Chipping away is an understatement," says Martin Fridson, chief executive of New York-based money manager Fridson Investment Advisors. Junk-bond sales are "really mitigating that wall of maturity risk."
Since the beginning of last year, borrowers have been able to cut the amount of high-yield loans and bonds coming due in the next five years by $196 billion, according to JPMorgan Chase (JPM). In one recent offering, Cablevision Systems, (CVC) the New York area cable TV provider, sold $1.25 billion of bonds in mid-April, using the proceeds to refinance.
Improvement in the credit markets can go only so far, though. To get past the maturity wall, companies will need the help of a prosperous economy. "Market conditions have clearly eased," says Diane Vazza, head of Standard & Poor's (MHP) global fixed-income research. But "companies that have these maturities in 2012, 2013, and 2014, they still need to generate top-line growth."
The bottom line: With super-safe instruments like Treasuries and CDs paying tiny yields, investors are taking risks to get better returns.

Hang onto your knickers!
Now that David Beckham has already had his go at modeling underwear (he was the body of Emporio Armani underwear for four seasons), he's taking a stab at designing it by launching a new collection of designer thermal underwear, also known as "long johns."
The L.A. Galaxy soccer star wants to give the old-fashioned items a makeover, which will hit stores in February 2012 just in time for Valentine's Day.
"The underwear is totally my designs, and are things that I like to wear," Beckham told U.K. newspaper The Sun.
And while some think of the waffle-knit undies as what you wear beneath a snowsuit, the 36-year-old Brit sports them in a different capacity.
"I sometimes wear them to go to sleep -- they're very cool," added Beckham.
Something tells Us that wife Victoria Beckham doesn't mind in the least bit.

I think I smell some jealousy, and I think you want Paul George to fail which is just sad.
Am I the only one who isn't picking sides here? I love Paul George, but I want to root for Hayward to succeed as well. It's not an either/or thing for me. I want both of them to thrive.
It'd be that way for me if bhaas and graphic-er didn't make me want to dislike him..
You can't get champagne from a garden hose.
Yeah that's kind of why I have been avoiding this thread honestly.
All I have to say is LOLZ.
Here's something Paul George can say that Hayward can't...his team made the playoffs.
I think you're both off your rockers.
You know the Jazz have a better record than The Pacers right now, don't you?
Last year Gordon Hayward's team was a playoff team, this year it isn't.
Last year Paul George's team wasn't a playoff team, this year it is.
Paul George has had a better rookie season than Hayward in every sense. Period.
Last edited by Trader Joe; 04-06-2011 at 11:56 PM.
Also mono, surely you have to take into account that gordons improved minutes have largely coincided with the massive nosedive the jazz have taken.
Since the all-star break or so they have been a far worse team than the pacers, the jazz if I recall correctly started like 27-13 and are giong to end up with a sub .500 record.
Of course gordon isn't to blame for the teams woes, but you also can't trumpet the fact that the jazz are a better team than the pacers as a plus to hayward, when hayward has largely emerged post-jazz breakdown.
Not to mention Paul has seen an increase in minutes ever since Vogel has been hired and we are 3 games over .500 in that timeperiod. If we win out (not a Redick-ulous thought), we'd be 22-16 under Vogel. Paul has slumped recently, this game not with standing, but he and his team have out achieved the Jazz since the end of January quite easily.
Waiting for somebody to bring the "weak schedule argument" in 3...2...1....
@WhatTheFFacts: Studies show that sarcasm enhances the ability of the human mind to solve complex problems!
Of course the Pacers are the better team right now. After all, Utah did trade away a top 5 NBA player for potential, lost their hall of fame coach, are finishing the season with four injured starters, etc. But I just figured if you were going to take such an obnoxious attitude about the Pacers supposed superiority, I may as well point out the obvious: it is silly to gloat about the Pacers being in the playoffs when the team you're comparing them to has a better record.
To further point out the obvious, Paul George is not solely responsible for the Pacers being in the playoffs, nor is Gordon Hayward responsible for the Jazz not being in the playoffs. The fact that one team is in the playoffs* while the other is not is totally irrelevant to which player is better.
I said earlier I thought both players were about equal, and I explained why. Then again -- I've actually seen more than 42 games from each team this season, so I know what I'm talking about. I sincerely doubt you can make the same claim. If you had anything more to offer than a say-so, I might take you seriously.
(*note: I am thrilled the Pacers are in the playoffs, and I am a fan of Paul George and I know he is going to have a lot of success in the NBA.)
I'm not really trumpeting anything. To be honest, my point is not to celebrate the Jazz. They're not a very good team right now. I just think it's silly to gloat that the Pacers are in the playoffs and the Jazz aren't when the Jazz have a better record than the Pacers.
Such an obnoxious superiority?
I was merely replying in the same obnoxious tone that spawned this thread. One good game from Hayward and we have some running to a PACERS board to preen about him? Give me a break.
Bhaas and everyone else slurping the Hayward kool aid should have known the obnoxious posts were going to come.
Especially when posts like this
Were used as some sort of evidence that Hayward is the clearly superior player...Well Paul has hit for 23 so clearly the debate is settled. He is better. Lock the thread.
Also, I love the "I've watched the X number of games argument, can you make the same claim? I don't think so." argument especially when accusing me of having an obnoxious superiority.
Well, I suppose it's fair enough to respond to obnoxiousness in kind, if that was the point of what you were doing, but my point is that I don't think there's a clear distinction between the two players, in terms of one being better than the other right now. George averages more points, Hayward shoots better percentages. They're both going to be good players.
Could very well be (that they're both good player), but the point of this thread IMO ,guised as it may have been, was to troll. So they're getting it right back now that Paul has hit for 23 and Hayward has only hit for 22 the debate has clearly been settled since that was the benchmark established by bhaas himself earlier in the thread.
My main point (and this isn't directed at you Mono) is that any Pacers fan who is going to come here and point out every time Hayward has had a good game (and they have done that) shouldn't be surprised when something like this comes flying right back at them.
I don't understand why we need the constant Gordon Hayward updates. As an IU fan, you don't see me posting every time Eric Gordon has a good game. I don't see Purdue fans posting every time Carl Landry has a good game, but every time Gordon Hayward has even an OK game we get a thread about it or repeated comments about it. It's weird.
I... Of course. Look, I'll try to make this clear: I am not complaining that the Pacers are in the playoffs. I'm thrilled that they are. I am not saying the Jazz are a better team. I know they aren't.
I was pointing out the hollowness of your original post. Keep this in mind: it's fantastic to celebrate your own accomplishments. It's lousy to put other people down. You don't have to run down the Jazz because you love the Pacers, or Gordon Hayward because you love Paul George. It's not necessary.
Was this thread not created to run down the Pacers/Paul George and lift up Gordon Hayward? If it wasn't, it's hard for me to fathom it's purpose. It is, after all, a Pacers/NBA forum, but we don't get updates from Bhaas or graphic-er when any other rookie has a good game, only when Hayward has a good game.
Well you would be pretty busy if u did. He played awful 2nite
Or Brian Cardinal
All right. That kind of thing goes on at the Utah Jazz message boards, (we have a particularly egregious pro-Boozer troll) and I agree it's incredibly irritating and worth fighting against. This isn't my primary basketball message board, so I guess I don't spend enough time here to recognize it. I understand where you're coming from if that's what's going on.
Could be. I didn't take it as such. If the point of the original post in this thread is to run down Paul George, then your position is valid. I think I'll go re-read it to gain some much-needed perspective.

Our holiday card this year…
Three years in a row…
Hope everyone has a cheery holiday this month, whatever you're celebrating. We got into it a bit early around here. Photos here.
8 Comments
It's easy to see the west-cost "shift" in card theme! Happiest of holiday, Booses! xoxo
Another fun one! I can't quite tell, but is your first one a baby on a plate?!? 🙂
I wish you and family a very happy xmas, even though I'm in 'bah humbug' mode. With my daughters not coming home this year, it seems a ridiculous performance and all the more so for all the traditions and icons being imported from the northern hemisphere. No one in Queensland has ever seen snow, and not likely to in Dec with temps into the 40's C. A feast of all the those traditional things is just about impossible. I'm done in after a couple of prawns and a bit of limp lettuce. Even when my girls were home we never got near finishing the whole gamut that tradition dictates. We entrenched our own tradition of 'parading the cake'. The bought, boxed cake was ceremoniously brought around the company accompanied by loud groans at the thought of more food. The same cake lasted more than a decade. Very economical.
Hi Claire! Happy Holidays! I peeped in to see how things are going with you and am so pleased to see that you and your family are well and happy! What a joyful and charming message. Wishing you an abundance of peace and warm fuzzies!
Bwahaha!! I can about imagine Claire. Mine would feel the same way. I think it is awesome and creative and funny! 🙂 Happy Holidays!

Help - how do i find my IP address through Cisco SRP 527w router
I am hoping someone can help me. I have been experiencing internet connectivity issues with my provider, which somehow manage to resolve themselves. However everytime I have spoken to my provider and they ask me for the IP address my router is connected too, I can not find where on the router configuration page I find this information. I can find it on other routers I use but not on this Cisco router. I hope this is a nice easy one and look forward to your help

Plan It Green Printing is working with not-for-profit Canopy to encourage governments and the forestry sector to support and advance protection of the world's ancient and endangered forests. We are committed and
proud to contribute to the creation of conservation legacies in these landscapes of
Please read about our commitment (here) and how it has affected our business below:
In 2014, 90% of our print business was on either compostable, recycled or tree free stocks.
In 2014, 75% of the paper used for printing was FSC Certified stock and 20% was tree-free Wheat straw paper stock. Of the paper used for printing 50% was Ancient Forest Friendly Certified stock via Canopy Planet.
From 2011 to 2014 we doubled our printing on tree free paper in the form of Wheat straw paper.
Facts about the paper industry
The paper/pulp industry is the third largest contributor of pollution in the industrialized world.
Water is used in the process of making paper, in fact, so much water that the paper/pulp industry is the largest consumer and polluter of water.
The paper industry is brutal on the environment of our planet: Cutting trees pollutes waterways and wreaks havoc on the habitat wildlife and the eco-system depends on.
Paper and packaging products are the largest contributors to landfills. Reusing paper lessens the need to cut trees and lowers energy use and pollution.
A ton of recycled paper produces a ton of new paper. How much better is that than cutting virgin wood!
Facts about recycled paper
Paper with 30% recycled content doesn't cut it
Thanks to CONSERVATREE for allowing us to reprint the following from their website:
MYTH: All paper is recycled now, so there is no need to ask for it.
FACT: Even at the height of its success, recycled paper only had about 10% of the printing and writing paper market and even those papers contained mostly virgin materials. Now distributors, printers and paper mills say that demand is dropping because buyers believe they no longer have to ask for recycled. Yet more than 90% of the printing and writing paper made in this country today is still virgin paper.
MYTH: It is better to burn paper for energy than to recycle it.
FACT: The fibers in fine paper can be recycled up to a dozen times before becoming too short for papermaking, saving resources, water and energy, and reducing pollution each one of those times. The impact and value of these repeated savings are much greater than the minimal amount of energy produced when the paper is burned instead.
MYTH: Making recycled paper is environmentally damaging.
FACT: Recycled paper production saves trees, energy and water, produces less pollution, uses more benign chemicals, and requires less bleaching than virgin paper production. It also solves a community disposal problem. The only area in which recycled paper creates more disposal materials is in the greater amount of sludge produced than virgin papermaking. But the problem materials that fall into recycled paper sludge would otherwise have been scattered throughout landfills or concentrated in incinerator emissions or ash. Recycling mill sludge becomes an environmentally preferable way of handling potentially toxic materials such as inks and additives. The sludge of many recycling mills tests non-toxic. Sludge that tests hazardous can be disposed of by an environmentally controlled method.

"Once a company makes an environmental statement, its direct competitor is now conspicuous by its absence if it hasn't too. Consumers are suspicious of that silence…. There is an underlying expectation that we are asking more questions about companies' intentions. That is partly a phenomenon of the digital age where consumers are used to interviewing brands like they might be interviewing people for a job."
— Alison Burns, CEO of JWT London

J.J. Abrams, the filmmaker behind the new 'Star Trek' movie, revealed about initial plan for the original depicter of Captain Kirk in the film.
William Shatner, the actor who has portrayed Captain Kirk in the original "Star Trek" television series, actually had a part written for him in new "Star Trek" film. The fact was let out by director/producer J.J. Abrams when he opened up to AMC about the actual plan for the star, "It was very tricky. We actually had written a scene with him in it that was a flashback kind of thing, but the truth is, it didn't quite feel right."
Explaining about the problem the filmmakers have to face, the creator of "Alias added, "The bigger thing was that he was very vocal that he didn't want to do a cameo. We tried desperately to put him in the movie, but he was making it very clear that he wanted the movie to focus on him significantly, which, frankly, he deserves."
"The truth is, the story that we were telling required a certain adherence to the Trek canon and consistency of storytelling. It's funny - a lot of the people who were proclaiming that he must be in this movie were the same people saying it must adhere to canon. Well, his character died on screen. Maybe a smarter group of filmmakers could have figured out how to resolve that."
Few weeks back, Abrams had put the speculation on Shatner making a special appearance in the Paramount Pictures film to rest. At the time, he stated that the only cast member from the original films reprising his role in "Star Trek" is Leonard Nimoy, who will once again return as Mr. Spock.
The eleventh feature film of the famed sci-fi movie, "Star Trek" stars Chris Pine, Eric Bana, Zoe Saldana, Zachary Quinto, Karl Urban, Simon Pegg and many else. It will resolve around Kirk and his fellow USS Enterprise crew members during their years at Starfleet Academy. Scripted by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, it will be released in theaters on May 8, 2009.

The New York Jets are not interested in former Oakland Raiders quarterback Jamarcus Russell. There was a report that the Jets had some very preliminary internal discussion about Jamarcus Russell, but apparently the team has come to the conclusion that they are not interested in the 300-plus-pound quarterback at this time. Which is a good thing, when there are quarterback options out there that will fit much better with the Jets, such as Alex Smith, Matt Moore or Jason Campbell.
Jamarcus Russell will not be under center for the New York Jets next season. that's welcome news to any Jets fans who went into a panic after the report that the team had discussed the possibility of pursuing the free agent quarterback, who burned out with the Oakland Raiders after being the first overall selection in the 2007 NFL Draft.
There are tons of reasons that can be looked to as far as why the Jets have crossed Jamarcus Russell off the list. Perhaps it was his unimpressive numbers with the Raiders his first time around, or maybe the fact that despite the raiders obviously doing everything in their power to help him succeed, he was out of the NFL just three seasons after being drafted first overall.
Or maybe it's because since his last snap in the NFL four years have passed and Jamarcus Russell has added 60 pounds to his frame. It's hard enough for an accomplished player to take one year off and return to action like Plaxico Burress, Randy Moss and Mike Vick, but four years off is another matter entirely. Especially when the player wasn't very successful to begin with.
Let another team take a shot on Jamarcus Russell. He's a long-term reclamation project at best, and one without much chance of paying off.

Acerca del libro
in honor of valentine's day:
written in very informal prose, i present "billet-doux": french for "a sweet letter/a love letter", this collection is made up of journal entries written over these past few years on the people who have especially impacted my life. think of it as one very long love letter to more than one person.
circling the themes of love and loss, (because what is one without the other,) this is very much a testament of what it means to be alive. (on that note, i apologize in advance for Sad things, but it all ends on a happy one.)
even if you don't know the people in this book, i hope you have someone(s) in your life who makes you feel that life is worth living.
and remember to tell the people you love that you love them on a daily basis while you can, and not just once a year out of obligation.

|Edition Detail
|Larson, Erik
The Devil in the White City is a riveting chronicle of the personality confilcts, economic challenges and strokes of pure bad luck that plagued the architects who created the Chicago World's Fair. Tantilizing bits of information are dropped throughout about Dr. H.H. Holmes and the horrors he committed in his house, and we are treated to dribbles of information on the workings of his clearly damaged mind, but the teaser is never satisfied. 95% of the book focuses on the Fair and immensely satisfies the curiosity of those who really wonder how it all came together as a fleeting flash of historical greatness, but the 5% we get on Dr. Holmes and his unfortunate victims is almost an afterthought. It seems as though Larsen's original intent was to juxtapose the brightness of the fair and the brilliance of its architects against the darkness of a mad mind calculating the slow torture and death of his victims, but overall the battle of light and dark seems to be waged between the public perception of the Fair's creation as something that magically happened and the reality of the down-and-dirty struggle to realize a dream against enormous odds. Another 50 or so pages of investigation and detail, rather than scores upon scores of endnotes that refer to documents unavailable to the general public, would have been more satisfying. Nevertheless, the sparcity of detail on Holmes' crimes is sufficient to ignite the reader's further interest. Criminologists will no doubt find it disappointing, but overall, the book is a grand read for anyone interested in urban history, architecture or sociology.Read More

Catherine Zeta-Jones revealed a couple of years ago that she has bipolar disorder. Yesterday TMZ reported that she has checked into a treatment facility for what a source called "maintenance" treatment.
The actress, who is married to Michael Douglas, did not accompany her husband to the White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday.
A rep tells People that, "Catherine has proactively checked into a health care facility. Previously Catherine has said that she is committed to periodic care in order to manage her health in an optimum manner."
TMZ says the Red 2 cast member will stay in treatment for 30 days.
And an unnamed source tells People that, "There was no big problem. This was just a good time to do it. She is in between projects. This has always been part of the plan. She would manage her health. She is vigilant about it."
When she revealed in 2011 that she is bipolar the 43-year-old said, "This is a disorder that affects millions of people and I am one of them. If my revelation of having bipolar II has encouraged one person to seek help, then it is worth it. There is no need to suffer silently and there is no shame in seeking help."

I don't think we're ready for spoilers yet. An awful lot of people have not had a chance to read HP7 and won't get to it for awhile, most of all our low-income children who are waiting for the book through their libraries or to borrow it from a more financially secure friend. There are also slow readers, readers who wish to savor the book, and readers with busy lives who have to carve out time for it. I hope everyone keeps their mouth shut for awhile.

Yes, if reviewers really wanted to be considerate of their public, they would wait to file their reviews until after everyone had read the book.

The court trying the case said it would hand down its verdict on 30 June.
Russia has denied any involvement in the killing of Zelimkhan Yanderbiyev and says the pair were in Qatar to gather anti-terrorism intelligence.
Prosecutors were summing up their case behind closed doors on Tuesday, defence lawyers said.
Correspondents in Moscow say the trial threatens to cause a diplomatic breach between Qatar and Moscow, particularly after allegations that the two agents were tortured to make their confessions to the February bombing.
Lawyer Ilya Levitov said prosecutors had tried to disprove that torture was used against the Russian pair.
"They argued that the confessions were made four days after the arrest and said that, if torture had been used, they would have confessed earlier," he said.
Mr Yanderbiyev, who was acting president in 1996-97, fled Chechnya in 1999 after the Russian invasion and went into exile in Qatar.
The accused were arrested shortly after the explosion, caused by a device placed under Mr Yanderbiyev's car as he left a Doha mosque after prayers.
Moscow had sought Mr Yanderbiyev's extradition from Qatar on charges of terrorism and links to al-Qaeda.

South African Tourism appoints new CMO
I am very excited about the opportunity and looking forward to the challenge. – Janine Hutton, SA Tourism's newly appointed chief marketing officer.
Hutton takes over as CMO of SAT from Roshene Singh, who is retiring this December after 10 years with the organisation.
Hutton is currently the co-founder and owner of the successful digital strategy and marketing company, Social Act, and is also a partner at Ivy League's Africa office.

Thulani Nzima, SAT CEO, bid Singh a warm farewell and welcomed Hutton's appointment.
'Roshene has been a rock at SAT and is widely respected by all in the tourism industry for her achievements. She oversaw the extremely successful tourism growth strategy, putting in place structures, trade and marketing relationships,' he said.
'She has left a good foundation and Janine inherits a solid ship on a good footing. We hope Janine will continue the good work as she brings her experience, skills, expertise and acumen in modern integrated destination marketing to this pivotal position.'
Nzima added that the CMO position was critical in driving SAT's marketing and trade work globally, and that SAT was excited about Hutton's appointment.
'In Janine, we have found an extremely competent and capable candidate to lead our company's marketing efforts, as we seek to continue to be innovative and effective in driving the growth of tourist arrivals to our country and in keeping pace with global trends affecting tourists' behaviour and travelling patterns. We are extremely excited about Janine's appointment and we are convinced she will be very adept at managing the considerable challenge of heading up the team responsible for SA Tourism's marketing operations and strategies,' he said.
Said Hutton of her appointment: 'I am a results-driven person and pride myself on converting complex concepts and innovative ideas into profitable businesses, which I think will be beneficial for a research and target-driven organisation such as SA Tourism. I am very excited about the opportunity and looking forward to the challenge.'
