Sacramento County
distinction of having been the founder of one of the most important and
prosperous business enterprises of San Francisco and Sacramento belongs
to Mr. Boss, who as president and manager of the Eausome Concrete
Company has been instrumental in the promotion of an industry invaluable
in the material development of his own home city of Sacramento. It may
not be amiss to mention, as indicative of the character of the company's
work, some of their contracts in this city, viz : the hotels Sacramento,
Land, Sequoia, Bismarck, Argus, all well-known and substantial
hostelries catering to the comfort of many guests; the News Publishing
Building, and the California National Bank building, both of which
structures are unusually substantial in design as well as attractive in
architecture; the Western Pacific depot and shops; twenty residences at
Colonial Heights; the residence and business block of Frederick Cox; and
the United Farm Lands building, also the Farmers & Mechanics Bank
building. This list, which by no means represents the entire extent of
their contracts in the capital city, is sufficient to indicate their
variety and importance. At San Francisco the company erected the
Columbia theatre, the Chamberlain building, the wing on the Southern
Pacific hospital, the Portola theatre and the Polk Street Market
building. At other points there have been building operations of great
magnitude, including the cotton mills at Oakland, the court house at
Placerville and the First National Bank of Contra Costa.
The gentleman to whose intelligent supervision may be attributed the distinct success attendant upon the progress of the company claims California as his native commonwealth. Born in Oakland in December of 1877 and a son of M. P. and Laura (Gallagher) Boss, he was given the best advantages afforded by the means of the family and the schools of the state. During 1890 he completed his course of study in the public schools and entered Belmont Academy, from which he was graduated in 1895. The winter term of 1895-96 found him a student in the department of mechanical engineering at the University of California, where he laid the foundation of the engineering knowledge so indispensable to his later business activities. At the outbreak of the Spanish-American war he volunteered in the service and became a member of Company I of the Fourteenth United States Infantry, in which he continued until 1899. Upon retiring from the army he went to Mexico and became a superintendent in construction work, going from there to New York City at the expiration of two years and engaging in business as a consult- ing engineer for eight months. Nevada furnished him with his next field of business activity and until 1905 he remained in charge of construction work on two mills at Goldfield and Tonopah. Next he had charge of the construction of mills at Gladstone and Howardsville, San Juan county, Colo. Returning to New York City in 1906, he formed an association with the Ransome-Smith Co., as superintendent of their construction work, and in their interests he came to California during May of 1907, soon afterward organizing at San Francisco the Ransome Concrete Company, of which he has been president and manager. When the office of the company was moved to Sacramento he established a residence in this city, where he now ranks among the leading members of the Chamber of Commerce and one of the most enthusiastic promoters of enterprises for civic development. His marriage in New York City July 16, 1904, united him with Miss Kate Ransome, by whom he has a daughter, Katharine. Various organizations number him among their members, among them being the Sutter and University Clubs of Sacramento, the Claremont Country Club of Oakland and the Construction Club of San Francisco. "While he has not identified himself with political affairs and takes no part in them aside from voting the Republican ticket at national elections, his knowledge of governmental problems is thorough and his opinions represent the result of thoughtful reading, keen faculties of observation and a cultured mind.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
I know we've all beaten the discussion of NULL to death on this blog, but I had an epiphany of sorts when flying to Germany for the European PASS conference. Thus, I'm going to pick up the topic just one more time...
It occurred to me that the word "Null" has a very specific meaning depending on the language you are speaking - TSQL, "academic"-SQL, English or...German, where null literally means zero. Thus, I would naturally expect some confusion when seeing the word "NULL" come up in a result if it is shown to your average German users.
That brings me to what I think is the fundamental problem with the term NULL. In a very practical sense in SQL Server NULL is:
The problem is that language comes in to play. No one likes trying to explain NULL to users in an academic sense, so we come up with definitions. Here are some of the more popular ones (correct or incorrect):
In any event, we need to keep in mind as database professionals that the actual description used for NULL will naturally carry with it specific connotations, for good or for bad. Language plays a great role in the understanding and ultimate usage of NULL - let's remain aware of that.
The same happens in Holland, take this sentence
ze hebben vijf nul verloren (they lost 5 nothing or they lost 5 0)
when you look at some documentation in Dutch (which I never do) you will see nul(0) used to differentiate between NULL and 0
Great comment, thanks Denis. I really think this is the fundamental problem with the concept of NULL within both database theory and practical implementation,.
I thought the common European term for zero was "NIL"? Personally I think we should learn from tennis and use "love" when we are talking about zero. :-)
Ooo, that's good - what's in that field -- " Love "..considrer the connetations of that! It's a complex problem,isn't it?
Europe has many languages and dialects
in Holland you can say niets, nul
In Croatia it would be nula or nista but in Istria (nortwest part bordering Slovenia) it would nula,nis or nic (depending which town)
Thanks Denis, I knew that all languages would not use the exact same word, but I thought I had detected a difference between "NULL" and "NIL" in several different languages. However, I am not a linguist in any way, shape or form. :-)
What if they named it VOID or Unknown instead of NULL?
Void would also be commonly misunderstood and fall into the same problems where people want to pass 'VOID' as a string as opposed to VOID as a keyword. You void a check (sorry, cheque), and things become "null and void." I don't think there is a word that you can come up with that clearly means absence of value without also having some other connotations... and other connotations inevitably lead to misunderstanding and misuse. I just think people need to learn and understand the concept, which many are not doing now (and perhaps that is just as much our fault as it is theirs).
I have to disagree with your post, James.
While it is true that on the physical layer in a SQL Server database, a NULL is just a bit in a bitmap, this is nothing but implementation details. A different DBMS might implement it in a different way. And in fact, SQL Server 2008 will have a different way to implement NULL for so called "sparse" columns. However, all this is (or rather: should be) irrelevant, since one of the fundamental principles of the relational model is the seperation of the model from the implementation. From a theoretical POV, we should not need to concern ourselves withhow stuff is implemented. (From a practical POV, we should, since it affects things like database size, performance, etc).
As you already indicated, this discussion is not new here. I've done a four-part series on NULL. The most relevant here would be this one: http://sqlblog.com/blogs/hugo_kornelis/archive/2007/07/06/null-ndash-the-database-rsquo-s-black-hole.aspx.
Now to pick on some of your points:
>> To me (and others that I've experienced), the implication is "Why is there the absence of value? <<
Well, if you want to know that, you have found a new attribute. And any time you find a new attribute, you add it to the model. NULL is not unique in this way. An value of 21 in the "Age" column of a table that records members of a club for children will result in similar eyebrow raising. So if there are legitimate situations where this should be allowed, and if there is a need to record the reason, an attrbitue for this will be added to the model. And nobody would ever consider overloading some value to represent both the age of 21 years and the reason why this adult can be a member of a children's club. So why treat NULL different?
>> "Unknown" - As far as SQL Server goes, this is the best definition. <<
Absolutely not. If someone's current employment is "unemployed", then the NULL in "Employer" does not mean that the employer is unknown. If someone's age is "male", then the NULL in "Number of pregnancies" does not mean unknown either. Etc. Sure, these are situations where a data model with seperate tables foor the subtypes could have been used, but that choice has some performance ramifications that might not always be acceptable.
Also, a NULL in the result of an OUTER JOIN does not at all mean "Unknown". And neither does the NULL in the "Valid-to" column of a history table on the "current" row (though some might prefer to use a magic value of 9999-12-31 - I guess we'll have a huge Y10K problem someday...)
Ah, Hugo, I was waiting for a response from you :)
I'm aware of the sparse column technique in 2008 (although I think I have a problem with that practical implementation - still mulling over it though).
What I was going for with this little blurb was just how differently people interpret the word NULL, and implications of language when using and describing it. As for your last two points, I agree with the first one. Any time a description prompts a "why", you have a new attribute (or we're dealing with three or four part logic - Null and N/A, etc). The second one, what I read from you is an interpretation (baring know the exact intent of the metadata) of Null. For example, the "Number of pregnancies" field having a Null in it could practically mean "zero" or "the data entry person never asked the question" or "not known at this time". You're absolutely right, it is a weekness, for practical purposes or because of ignorance, of the data design. But I was try to look at it from an end user perspective - they'll impose whatever they think if they see Null (and if you're German and and aware of database theory, that means "zero").
Good points though, thank you. I don't disagree with any of the entirely, I think you and I have have to sit down for a coffee (or a beer) and figure out where we don't connect on Null :)
For anyone else reading these, Hugo's series on Nulls is excellent.
Hugo, what do you think of the idea that Null is really more syntax and less semantics? (Sorry, Philosophy of Language course kicking in...)

Aurora Espumante Chardonnay NV, Serra Gaucha (~£12 Go Brazil Wines)
Light and refreshing with a touch of yeasty/toasty complexity, but the slightly smoky elderflower notes speak of underripeness. Good but not great. B
Casa Valduga Espumante 130 Brut NV, Serra Gaucha (~£23 Go Brazil Wines)
Classy mature wine, with honeyed, biscuity complexity, ripe pineapple and hazelnut flavours and a touch of toffee. Very grown-up style S(-)
Monte Paschoal Brut Rosé Espumante NV (N/A in the UK)
Reasonable red fruit notes plus a touch of apple, but slightly let down by a cheesy edge and a touch too much strawberry cordial-like sweetness. B-
Sanjo Nubio Sauvignon Blanc 2011, Serra Catarinense (N/A in the UK)
Decent citrus fruit tinged with elderflower, but there's also a nutty/toasty character that reminds me of over-sulphured Loire wines (have tried three further bottles since this tasting – all were similar). ???
Lidio Carraro Da'divas Chardonnay 2011, Encruzilhada do Sul (~£15 Go Brazil Wines)

I ran out of my favorite suncreen Shiseido Extra Smooth Sun Protection Lotion SPF 38 PA++ & before i could make it to Sephora to get some, i picked this up at Walmart for $10USD. So glad i did. I have to say the consistency & coverage is pretty similar to the Shiseido version & it's at 1/3 of the price. It has a sheer finish, none of that white cast from sunscreen & absorb beautifully into my combo skin. I could layer this on top of a daytime cream, and it still feels sheer.The small flat tube design makes it easy for me to toss it into my handbag. Love - will definitely repurchase when i run out.

wikiHow to Make Homemade Vanilla Custard Without an Ice Cream Maker
Are you in need of vanilla ice cream, but just don't want to go to the ice cream shop every time? How about if you don't have an ice cream maker? Or you don't want refined sugar in it, either? There is a quick and easy solution for all of those needs!
- 32 ounces (4 cups) of heavy whipping cream
- 12 ounces (1.5 cups) of milk
- 7 egg yolks
- 7 ounces (5/6 cup) of honey
- 1 tablespoon of pure vanilla extract
1Mix 12 ounces (1.5 cups) of heavy whipping cream with 12 ounces (1.5 cups) of milk of choice. Any milk will work, but whole milk is recommended for optimal taste. Cook the mixture on medium heat and bring to a boil.
2Once the mixture has boiled, add seven egg yolks. Lower the heat from medium to low heat. Mix consistently with a whisk for about two minutes until all ingredients have been evenly blended. Do not allow the mixture to boil again.
3Remove the mixture from the stove and immediately add 7 ounces (5/6 cup) of honey.
- Another idea is to substitute one third of the honey with powdered coconut sugar. To make powered coconut sugar, grind the coconut sugar in a coffee grinder until it has become a powder.
4Add one tablespoon of pure vanilla extract to the mixture. Mix it well and let it cool. Then put it in a fridge and let it cool completely for about an hour.
5In a mixing bowl, whip 21 ounces (2.5 cups) of heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Then, add the vanilla custard mixture to the mixing bowl and mix until well-blended. Both a hand mixer or a stand mixer will work for this.
6Transfer the mixture to a glass bowl. Place the bowl inside the freezer and leave it there overnight or for seven to eight hours. In the morning, you will have your vanilla custard! To take it a step further, add any garnish you would like.

An amazing business, lathe woodworking. Bowls, Pins and more
We'll turn your support into Bowls, writing pins, lamps shades, christmas ordainments, table legs, rolling pins ext.
About this project
Where we want to go
Time and skill, two thing that bring a good lathe piece together. We incorporate both into each piece we create. whether it be a bowl or a pen our pieces will bring flare to your home.
The goal with this Kickstarter is twofold. First we want to share our skills with as many people as possible. Secondly, in order to accomplish our first goal we need the tools of the trade. These tools will allow us open up new possibilities and create amazing art.
When you support this project, you are supporting a father and son advancer. My father an I have been working together for years and one thing we loved doing together was lathe work. Growing up with six older sisters, and being the only boy, me and my dad would work with our hands and stay out of the house. We have sense moved away from each other and this would allow us to work together again.
Our base funding goal of $2,000 gets the ball rolling, but we consider that the bare minimum. our stretch goal of $10,000 will greatly expand the potential of what we can do. If we hit our goal of the first 15 backers that have given $40 or more will receive a FREE WOOD BOWL! You can help us hit our goal in two ways. First, back our project, but don't stop there. Share our project with your friends. Help us spread the word and earn the FREE bowl.
Product to be created
These are somethings we would like to create.
Risks and challenges
The first challenge is not knowing what kind of response we will get from our Kickstarter. The first step when we receive funding is finding a place to work out of. This should not be hard, we are willing to work out of our garages till we can find a suitable place. The second step is getting the proper tools and lathe. We hope to be settled with in one or two months. The first rewards will start shipping shortly after.
The good news about this plan is that with a larger response rate the faster we can get in and settled and have product ready to ship.


text: I put these new blades on my Quick 36 a few weeks ago. I noticed that they did a nicer job with mulching with only one problem. I had grass pieces flying all over the place to the point that the deck had an inch worth of clippings laying on it and I was covered with grass (and probably swallowed a bunch too). I then decided to see how things would work with side discharging. I think this was the solution with these blades as the side discharge still does a decent mulching job and I am no longer covered in grass at the completion of mowing. Just an FYI for anyone who might be contemplating or using these blades.

Great article by Robert Wilkinson
Cosmic time is calling forth a period of re-envisioning, reassessing and reinvention. With Mercury Retrograding in Virgo on August 30th, we are supported in structuring the necessary details to move forth toward our most optimal future vision.
Here are the MYSTIC MAMMA Astral Insights from Mercury Retrograde expert, the wonderful Robert Wilkinson from his Aquarius Papers:
"Mercury is radically slowing down, preparing to go stationary retrograde at 30 Virgo on Aug 30 at 6:04 am PDT, 9:04 am EDT, 2:04 pm BST. This has important implications for all signs.
"Until then, adapt to the slowing pace of things, be willing to put some things on hold for a little while, and take a look at what's been set into motion up to now with an eye to seeing what has to be done before things can again move forward in late September…"
there are also many productive things that get done
of a new practical era
"This one teaches us precise use of will power, or the power of the personality to take command of circumstances.
will help us see the light of
"Many will glimpse a greater effectiveness or find a way to reorganize to help things move forward in late September…"
"This Mercury retrograde will offer us opportunities to look back and find a new way to conquer an illusion, or 'resist a false call.'
"This gives us a new look at how we are ministering to others, or being ministered to by others. It opens the door to the sanctuary where our minds behold the soul realm, and requires that weaccept we are entering a new way of serving and being served. Shamanic power can be found by those who concentrate, and accept a greater destiny.
"Some will experience returns of people from the past who were spiritual Brothers and Sisters, or they will be of some service in the present. Some projects will have to be postponed, or a new way found to make something work.
"This can give insights into several different ways to get something done, and favors practical rehearsals before 'doing it for real.'
"All of us will get glimpses of how our past experiences and choices resulting from the last Mercury retrograde have led us to a new view of possibilities.
"Consider the next 3 weeks as a review of how to make things work better than in the past, reshaping and refining whatever was stabilized during the last Mercury retrograde in Taurus.
"We'll get insights into new ways of experimenting in methods, or see how we've been educated on the mental or philosophical level to be more practical or dedicated in some way.
"Some will recall old jobs well done, and get new perspectives on all things related to Virgo people and experiences. This will help finish an old training while opening us to 'the joy and power of new beginnings…'
"Despite the retrograde, it's a great time for practical inspiration and inspired practicality, as well as giving things a final polish before launching in a big way at the end of this retrograde period.
capture the essential elements of
"For all of us, during the next several weeks the future that's already rolling forward will slow a little so we can get a new look at crucial elements of the process we cannot afford to ignore.
"All of us will have a new understanding of multiple elements of our lives by late September, and will see the ultimate cultural values we believe in and are willing to live and uphold.
"This will be another important retrograde, where the past will be reviewed to see what we can and cannot bring with us into the future in late September.
"It will help us rehearse or do the research we need to get ready to spring forward then, clear about what we know, what we need to know, and what must happen if we are to move forward into living a new archetypal role.
"Renewals, returns, reconnections, reunions, and new beginnings are promised by this retrograde."
And just to clarify, Robert Wilkinson explains:
"While it seems as though Mercury retrograde is associated with things that malfunction and miscommunications and delays, we must remember no planet or its influence is good or bad unto itself.
"We are the ones who determine our 'destiny,' based on our choices, which shape our character.
"In that sense, 'character is destiny,' and so we have the responsibility to determine whether we will be active or passive in responding to life's challenges.
"We have free will and no planet or star 'makes' anything happen. They merely indicate the larger patterns we live within, and by understanding those patterns and what they symbolize, we are in a position to be in harmony or disharmony with inner and outer 'reality.'
"This is the power of our individuality to rise above inertia, superstition, and obsolete, inadequate, or fear-based belief systems.
"Mercury retrograde has been with us, and will be with us, for a long, long, time, as long as the planets have their present orbits around the Sun.
"The more we learn about this recurring phenomenon, the more able we will be to take advantage of our ability not to get lost or bogged down during Mercury retrograde periods.
"We may experience delays or confusions or deflections, but we do not have to suffer while making our way through such things.
"By learning how to use Mercury retrograde periods wiselyand consciously, even if our affairs are momentarily diverted in strange directions, coordinated in some unusual ways, or take some peculiar twists and turns, they often turn out for the best over the long run, whether we knew that or not during the retrograde period…"
"I have found over the years many good things can be accomplished during these periods.
"Sometimes there are extremely fortuitous connections made, whether renewing something from this life or another one. allow us a more well-rounded perspective
"And of course, reviewing the past and reflecting on recent developments is often necessary if we are to move into the future without getting hung up on the past."

Great Website for Spiritual Teachings
I love this website. Rick and Irene Archer organize and interview not-so-famous people on the path of awakening.
The website has tons of interviews and a gigantic variety. The interviews are about two hours long so you really get to know the person and their experiences.
In Boise, ID Now :-)
What an adventure it has been . . . first moving to Encinitas . . . then to Boise. After this acrobatic maneuver, I feel I can move anywhere and keep moving :-) Presently, though, Boise is home and just starting to look for office space.
I'm looking forward to meeting kindred spirits and getting to know my new Boise clients. How exciting!

My Very First Video on YouTube
Journey Through Infinity & Eternity
In these rather shaky, unpredictable times, it's hard to find ground, something predictable and stable, yet most of us crave predictability and stability. I know when there is unrest, it's like the storm that, when finished, will yield a fresh, clean new world. Nevertheless, it's a challenge to navigate the rocky seas.
Looking for an answer to this unease of the unknown this is what came to me from my inner self:
"There is no arrival point [in our life journey and our soul journey]. There is only the journey. The arrival point is to be present to the moment of pure bliss of All That Is.
Everything always moves, changes -- in the center of absolute Stillness.
That's how it is."

Bring a Tea Partier and Get in Free!
Who said, "It's truly a blessing to have total freaking idiots as your enemy"? That barb could just as easily come from Bill Maher as Rachel Maddow, but it was Maddow's line. Both savvy, well-informed television hosts and political commentators who favor expensive blazers will sit down in front of you when Writers Bloc brings them together to "talk about the way politicians make decisions." Maddow's in town to promote her new book, Drift: The Unmooring of American Military Power. The format is simple: They'll gab, the political analysis and biting saccasm will flow, and then the audience can ask questions. So think of something challenging and witty to ask, not necessarily about Mitt Romney.

The San Marin High girls golf team had league rival Justin-Siena right where they wanted it on Monday.
Not only were the Mustangs on their home course, the Braves were without Kathleen Scavo, the 16th-ranked junior amateur in the state, who was busy playing at the Ping Invitational in Oklahoma.
None of San Marin's apparent advantages made much difference at Indian Valley Golf Club as Justin-Siena easily defended the MCAL girls golf championship team title, besting the Mustangs 494-520.
"I think we should have done better," San Marin coach Bob Lacy said. "They were missing their top player and our top three players should be right up there with their next three players."
By virtue of winning the title by 26 strokes, Justin-Siena earns an automatic bid into Monday's North Coast Section Division II championships at Beau Pre Golf Course in McKinleyville, located about 30 minutes past Eureka.
San Marin is eligible to apply for an at-large berth, but Lacy says he will probably opt out of even applying.
"I don't think so," Lacy said. "If it was closer we probably would do it. But logistically, it's a nightmare. My policy is that if we earn our way in, we go anywhere the road takes us. But I don't just put in for a tournament because of being accepted as an at-large team."
Tam (557) beat out Redwood (591) for third place.
Three Justin-Siena golfers cracked 100 on the tightly-manicured, rolling hills course, led by medalist Maria Davis who shot a 3-over-par 75. San Marin sophomore Madi Brown checked in second with an 80 and teammate Alison Nieh was third at 84.
Although Brown was not going to reel in Davis for medalist honors, her score would have been lower if not for a double bogey on the par-5, 452-yard 18th hole. She said she hit short off the tee and put herself in a tough spot on the long, hard dogleg right hole.
After her round, Brown was a bit miffed at herself.
"In a practice round Saturday I shot a 73," Brown said. "I missed a lot of short makeable putts today."
Brown's putter was more dependable on the front nine where she dropped in two birdies for a 39.
"After the front nine, I felt I had to do even better," said Brown, who was playing a full 18 holes for only the third time in her life. "I put more pressure on myself on the back nine."
On the other hand, Nieh, who shot even 42s on both the front and back, finished with a flurry, sinking a birdie putt on the final hole. She set the table for the birdie with a strong and straight drive with a 3-wood, knocked her approach shot just short of the green and used a sand wedge to flip the ball about 10 feet right of the flag.
Nieh, who does not carry a driver in her bag, said Monday's 84 was one of her best rounds.
"On my third shot on 18 I didn't know what club to use," Nieh said. "I decided on my sand wedge because it was only about 60 yards to the hole. I thought it was a good shot, but I couldn't see it because of the uphill green, so I ran up there and was very happy when I saw where it landed."
Nieh started slowly with a triple bogey on the first hole.
"My first two holes were terrible," she said. "I couldn't hit my 3-wood onto the fairway."
Both Brown and Nieh qualified individually for NCS, as did Redwood's Mia Poynor, who finished tied for fifth overall with a 99.

Art History
The art history program at Pacific University offers students an opportunity to learn about the visual arts in their historical and theoretical contexts. Students explore cultures, geographic areas and time periods, in both Western and non-Western art. They also study broad thematic issues to frame art history within a global perspective.
- Unite the visual arts with fields in the humanities, enriching your life and liberal arts education
- Link art with history, politics, philosophy, religion, anthropology, sociology and literature in an interdisciplinary major or minor
- Develop cultural relations with the art world in the Portland area and the Pacific Northwest
- Intern at Pacific's own Kathrin Cawein Gallery or other local galleries and museums
- Learn from a dedicated faculty of scholars who thrive on one-on-one interaction with students
- Conduct a senior year original research project and write a meaningful, analytical art historical paper of significant length
The major in art history features a global perspective with offerings in both Western and non-Western art. Courses in Western art include surveys, such as Ancient to Contemporary Art, as well as period-specific courses, such as 19th Century Art, Modern Art (1900-1960) and Contemporary Art (1960-present).
Non-Western courses include Asian Art & Architecture and Islamic Art & Architecture. Pacific also offers a Women in Art course and "special topics" courses that provide more in-depth study pertaining to students' interests. Study abroad courses offer a variety of travel opportunities, as well.
While studying art history, students explore the meaning and functions of the visual arts as created within specific historical, social, political, philosophical and religious contexts. Students also learn to look critically at a work, considering issues such as the character and evolution of form and style, iconography, and underlying ideologies and concepts. Students become familiar with methods of art analysis and the vocabulary needed to discuss and describe works.
The art history program trains students to think analytically and to effectively communicate as scholars. Students acquire problem-solving techniques that are invaluable to employers. Graduates of the art history program have skills in critical reading and thinking, research and interpretation. They clearly articulate ideas orally, visually and in writing. Our graduates work in museums, galleries, art-related nonprofit organizations and as teachers.
Art Department
The art program at Pacific University is part of the Art Department, which also offers a major and minor in studio art and a minor in photography.

Reprinted from The Jewish Religion: A Companion, published by Oxford University Press.
Gersonides or Levi ben Gershom (1288-1344) of Provence, was a Talmudist, philosopher, and astronomer. Gersonides wrote a lengthy commentary on the Bible in which his general methodology is to give a list of "advantages" to be gained from the biblical narratives, that is, the moral lessons to be derived from them.
His philosophical approach in this work and particularly in his Wars of the Lord follows the rationalistic mode of Aristotelian philosophy in its Arabic garb. He understands, for instance, the fall of the walls of Jericho (Joshua 6) to have been caused by the weakening of the walls by the tramping feet of the priests and the blowing of the trumpets. According to Gersonides, the sun did not stop for Joshua (Joshua 10:12-14) but only appeared to do so because the battle was over so soon.
Similarly, the shadow on the sundial did move 10 degrees backwards (2 Kings 20:11), though not because the sun really moved but as a result of the arrangement of the clouds at the time. In all this Gersonides' principle is that the Torah does not oblige us to accept things that are contrary to reason.
In his Wars of the Lord, Gersonides understands the doctrine of creation as meaning not that God created the world "out of nothing" but rather that he created it out of a formless substance. On the problem of free will and divine foreknowledge, Gersonides advances the startling theory that God knows beforehand only the possibilities open to a man but, since man is free to choose, not the actual choice he will make.
These views seemed so startling to later theologians that they dubbed his work heretical, calling it "The Wars against the Lord." It is noteworthy, however, that Gersonides' works became acceptable even to Orthodox Jews as representing the rationalistic tendency in Jewish thought, which has a legitimacy of its own.

lvalue operator / consumable objects
Take the following bit of code. My first question is do explicit constructors prohibit using = in construction? GCC accepts this code, but Comeau online seems to want to construct the 'Consumable's by first creating an rvalue-'Consumable'. Does the C++ standard require () instead of = in this case?
#include <iostream>
PS I am not using auto_ptr for these reasons:
1) basic lib will have no STL or explicit libc ties
2) cannot have an assignment operator due to ambiguity
3) only certain objects may release the pointer
4) the "don't delete me" criteria is type-specific
I would say g++ should not be allowing this to compile what compiler warning level are you using? also looks like you are reinventing a scoped pointer class.
Here is copy of the scoped shared pointer class I use, you would need to adjust it if you wanted to use it tho as the release function releases it reference to the pointer not releases the actual pointer from the container to the user.
I am using -Wall and don't get any warnings (I rewrote this from memory but it's essentially the same.) I did find an answer for the first question: 'explicit' does require (), however I think the line 'Consumable Test3 = Transfer(Test2);' should implicitly call 'operator Consumable&()' (with GCC it does.)
I do need a custom class in this case because deletion is conditional based on the result of a virtual function called on the pointer. What I'd really like to know is if it's too non-standard that a 'Consumable' passed to a function is no longer usable. Again, I don't want any explicit external dependencies. Thanks.
PS A scoped pointer can't be copied, however I need mutating copying in the way auto_ptr has and no assignment operator (whether default or mutating.) A shared pointer is too much overhead and the reference counting is redundant in the case of my lib.
This is the output g++ gives me
Yes, I guess I mis-typed when rewriting that part (or maybe it's the -ansi that got me.) If you change that line to 'Consumable Test1(Value);' then it should work. My other questions/comments still stand, however. Thanks.
PS I am without GCC right now.
That was my reasoning for thinking it should not compile:)
It turns out the lvalue operator isn't actually used by stricter compilers (such as gcc 4.2.4 in Slackware 12.1-current,) so I just converted to a reference counter, anyway! It made me remember this discussion. The public interface only allows access to the const pointer and a friend class has access to the non-const version so that it can store it. The const-only public access prevents the developer from accidentally using the same pointer with two separate groups of reference-counting pointers. Before I was afraid that a smart pointer would go out of scope too soon, but it isn't a problem with the current library version. Thanks for the help, although very late!
Nevermind! It wasn't quite that simple. In multi-threaded applications, it's possible for a reference counter to hold a pointer to an object and have the object be deleted independently. Sort of just talking to myself, but I'm just giving an update.
The solution seems to be reference-counting smart pointers plus linked lists of the smart pointers. It's all very complex, but I guess that's the price of memory management!

Phillies Pitcher Release Points
In November, we published an article about using PITCHf/x data to track pitcher fastball release points over time. The article included several examples of pitchers who had interesting changes in their release points or were especially consistent or inconsistent in their release points from game to game.
This post presents similar data for the pitchers on the roster of one particular team, in this case, the Philadelphia Phillies, along with some brief commentary.
For an explanation of the methodology, please refer to the original article linked above. Mostly this is a data dump. I'd be curious to get feedback on whether people find this information interesting or if they would prefer that I spend my time on something with more narrative and analysis.
Roy Halladay has had a very consistent fastball release point from game to game, although he did raise his arm angle a little bit toward the end of 2008 and dropped it back down slightly in the middle of 2010.
It looks like Cliff Lee moved over toward third base on the pitching rubber in his last start of 2009; otherwise, his release point has been very consistent.
You can see here that Roy Oswalt is shorter than Halladay and Lee, resulting in a lower release point, and he also stands over toward the first-base edge of the pitching rubber. He shifted even farther toward first base for the 2010 season.
Cole Hamels was discussed in the original article, including his shift toward first base during 2010. His game-to-game consistency has been about average.
Joe Blanton appears to have gradually raised his arm angle and moved toward third base on the rubber. His game-to-game consistency has been good.
Jamie Moyer may never pitch for the Phillies again, but it's interesting to see that he was making adjustments even in his 24th season in the majors. He dropped his arm angle quite dramatically to begin the 2010 season. His game-to-game consistency was about average.
Brad Lidge had poor fastball release point consistency. He also raised his arm angle dramatically to begin 2010, but he dropped it back toward his previous arm angle by midseason.
Ryan Madson raised his arm angle somewhat when he returned from his broken toe in July 2010. His game-to-game release consistency was about average.
This method does not work well for Jose Contreras, but here is his data in this format, anyway, for what it's worth. Contreras purposefully changes his arm angle, dropping down against right-handed batters. Thus, his average release point for a given game is mainly dependent on the mix of lefty and righty batters that he faced.
Danys Baez has had average release point consistency on his fastball.
J.C. Romero has had poor release point consistency on his fastball.
Some of the remaining Phillies bullpen candidates are presented without comment, including Brian Bass, Antonio Bastardo, Eddie Bonine, David Herndon, and Kyle Kendrick.

Definitely found the info interesting...though it might only be because I'm a phillie fan. Thanks!

As someone who struggled trying to find that consistency in college (never did, lol), this is VERY cool stuff! Trend for Halladay might reflect him trying to conserve himself for the playoff run maybe. Wasn't aware of the moves Hamels and Oswalt made this season. Maybe Oswalt did it to help control a cutter? Hmm. Doesn't hurt that I'm also a Phillies fan.

Why are you asking the women? You think they really know what needs to be done? There the followers not the instigators. You've set a difficult task for yourself but it is possible. Whether or not you can pull a 180 I don't know.
You need to create an attraction. The problem with your situation is you've skipped the attraction stage and have gone straight into the rapport stage. Attraction is about tension and flirting and sexual danger, while rapport is about sameness, connection, and loosening tension. Friends (which are what you are) have rapport.
I'm basically going to take quotations directly from bobairs blog entry titled "How To Seduce Her From "Friend" To "Lover". You can find more detail here… link
Playfully tease her about things she's confident in (if she knows she has a great body, then tease her about how unattractive you find her… just remember that this only works well if she knows you're teasing her, and if she is truly confident about herself. Don't tease an insecure model about being fat, because you'll ruin the poor girl.)
Role-play with her, while always assuming she's making sexual innuendos. This is about being fun, while also helping her to associate you with sexual banter.
Say "No" to everything she says, suggests, or asks. This is a simple way to break rapport.
Only give her one compliment. If you're secretly into her then you're likely giving her way too many compliments…. Especially when she's looking for them. Instead open your evening with, "Hey, you actually look pretty good tonight" almost like you're being sarcastic. But then drop it like it's hot.
Lead by being assertive. Don't ask for her permission to do or say things. Don't waste her time with "Well, what do YOU want to eat?" Instead make suggestions, "Let's go to that new place downtown, I hear they have great Chinese food. I'll pick you up at 6."
If she responds well to the above tactics you need to escalate your relationship. Take things in baby steps and if your lucky you can brake your rapport and create attraction. Once she's attracted to you the possibilities are endless.

2010's Splinter Cell: Conviction brought Sam Fisher a long way from his mid-aughties hedey of silence, shadows, and frequent no-kill/no-detection missions. Just as Sam's government superspy status was stripped away, so, too, was the imperative of invisibility, those ever-present tracks to be hidden at all costs.
But stealth has always been a staple of Ubisoft's legendary franchise, and for Splinter Cell: Blacklist, fans have been eager to see how the team in Toronto is re-incorporating the style back into gameplay. While the latest gameplay trailer from the developer doesn't delve into any new mission or story territory – it's the same level shown in the Blacklist E3 and Gamescom trailers – it serves as a road map for the non-lethal approach.
Dubbed "Ghost Style," the trailer is narrated by Splinter Cell community developer Zach Cooper as Sam once again thwarts enemy patrols en route to a terrorist leader's compound. Splinter Cell: Blacklist puts Sam in command of the newly-minted Fourth Echelon (in lieu of Third), and Jadid, his current target, is one of many threats in the game believed to be plotting an attack on the United States.
Sure, Blacklist fans could breeze through the level wearing a blindfold at this point, but Ubisoft clearly wants to instil their message of "your-way" gameplay. In the end, it's definitely worth witnessing. The way Sam masters his environment, the way he studies pedantically every pathway, enemy, and ability at his disposal in order to remain unseen – those are mechanics that should always have a home in Splinter Cell and even in rough pre-alpha form, there's reason to believe Ubisoft is keeping them in mind. At any rate, the trailer is a noticeable departure from the frenetic motion killing/Mark-and-Execute demonstrations of the past.
There's a lot more to learn about Splinter Cell: Blacklist. As assiduous as Ubisoft has been in guarding the stealth elements promised for Sam's return, we haven't seen the action set outside the Mirawa village above, or a city rooftop in a teaser trailer. We haven't seen gameplay where Splinter Cell truly shines: in the darkness.
Ranters, we've asked before, but after seeing Blacklist's pre-alpha stealth gameplay (as Cooper notes, non-lethal animations haven't even been added yet), which combat style are you eager to use in Sam Fisher's next outing?
Splinter Cell: Blacklist is slated for a Spring 2013 release on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, with a possible Wii U edition in development. A rogue Amazon UK listing last month hinted a date of March 29.

The wind storm last night knocked out power to all of the long beach Peninsula and much of Pacific County. I am posting this on generator power. Many trees and power lines are down. The power could be out from 1-3 days depending on location.
I am posting storm photos from Chris Sidebotham located on the Washington Coast on Willapa Bay in Pacific county
Thank you Mike
Here are a few of my pictures
1)- is a view from my front yard of the neighbors house.If you look close you can see the next neighbor on his front porch probably needing to go change his shorts.
2)- is another neighbors shed had rolled end over end full of stuff before ending up here and my truck is under it on the other side of the hedge.
3)- this was not the high gust it was just one of them. The wind has destroyed 3 anemometers in the last few years and as of now I don't have one. If you have any thoughts about a good one that can keep a log and is not to expensive I would appreciate hearing about it.
Updated 11/25/2009:
Some areas around here had higher gusts than my station recorded, here is why: Wind readings will be higher near the water. I am a half mile to a mile from the water, so I do not record the highest gusts from the area. My neighborhood on 81st and Sandridge Rd. did not get very much damage compared to areas closer to the water.
During the peak of the last storm on the 22nd, the winds shifted from the South to the West. Most storms around here have winds from the South. When the winds shifted to the West, it was a major shock to the trees causing many to fall. Also many days of heavy rain made the gound saturated with water weakening tree stability.

Shooter, I think you would be surprised if you see the low cost for n a good hunt that can be arranged if you know the right people. get an out fitter that do more hunts with Americans rather than the one that does one for the year and wants do get all his money out of one customer.
as I am typing this my two American friend are waiting on the airport to return to the US. for Richard it was his first African hunt and for Mark his second. both are astonished by the low costs. between the two of them they took more than 20 animals and they said that if you are going to travel to hunt in the US and Alaska you might as well come over here and for more or less the same traveling expenses get to choose from a wide variety of animals.
I went with them for 3 days when they were scouting for Richards eland. while scouting the eland we must have seen 15 different huntable species.
me and Mark met on this forum a couple of yers ago and he sent me a pm ande not 2 months from then he was over here.
here are some pics of the last hunt:

WEST ORANGE, NJ - On June 10, The West Orange High School Senior Sports Awards Night was held with over 70 graduating seniors, along with coaches and parents, being recognized.
Interim Superintendent James O'Neill, who was recognized for his commitment to the athletic programs at West Orange High School said, "Working for and with the West Orange School district has been the two most fulfilling years of my forty-year career in education. West Orange has great and talented teachers, coaches and administrators. It's been a distinct pleasure to work with you all."
Several parents committed to high school sports were recognized. TAPinto West Orange also received recognition for its coverage of WOHS sports throughout the year and the development of a team of high school sports reporters and journalists.
"It comes as no surprise that our student athletes work hard, seemingly around the clock, balancing a successful sports career, while maintaining a proper grade point average," said West Orange High School Athletic Director Ronald Bligh. "We proudly show our appreciation for the fine work and dedication of these student athletes by honoring them with these prestigious awards."
Several of the awards were given by families of former athletes and coaches that impacted the Mountaineer Sports community. Those awards included: the Lawrence Cunningham Memorial Award (named for Coach Cunningham, a former football coach at West Orange High School who passed away in 1986); the Betty Maddalena Memorial Award (named for the track and field coach and dedicated teacher); The Daniel Schiffer Memorial Award (a WOHS basketball player); The Matt Lombardi Memorial Award (a former Physical Education teacher and boy's basketball coach); the Richard Cataldo Award (a 1963 scholar-athlete graduate); the Jerome Sanzari Award (golf enthusiast and WOHS graduate); the Judy Risse Award (a physical education teacher, basketball and softball coach); and the Robert Callard Award (the first physical education teacher of West Orange High School).
The emotional highlight of the evening came as the Courageous Athlete Award was presented to soccer player Matt Wilson, who was diagnosed with cancer prior to the start of the soccer playoffs. Matt supported and inspired his teammates in the Group IV North Jersey Section I State championships in November, and has just completed his second round of chemotherapy. His prognosis is good.
Jahir Blanton and Aliya Barnes were named the West Orange Hall of Fame male and female Athletes of the Year for their contributions to their respective athletic teams, as well as for character, leadership, academics, skills and participation in multiple sports.

Guild Wars 2, Aion, Trickster, Ragnarok Online, I could go ON!
But had to step out into the real world. Be an "Adult"...whatever that is D;
Now, I work as a waitress saving up for car then going to school.
So you could say now. . .
My power ups are Makeup (war paint, hah)and Coffee for +AGI.
With extra money I splurge and buy figures every once in a while (guilty pleasure! >_<)
I still play games tho I LOVE Steam Sales and Mechanical Keyboards <3
As for other things:

"Did you watch ______?" I will say "newp" and let the awkward silence start... D,:

I was too but I have to stop! I practically bought a detolf and need to get one more O____ O
I know this feeling orz
If the shipping and price wasn't in euros I'd prob have jumped on that Kuwabara already, but he's like $100+ bc the exchange rate ;_;

I'm tempted... ;3; thank you
02 года назадDelicateThunder
Nope I live under a rock. Enlighten me xD
Too much, suffice to say. ^_^'
I know that Cloud is Squeenix's mascot, but I draw the line at $100+, even if it is his kickass version from Advent Children. All of the new AC PAK are pushing that price, but Chocoboy is the most expensive. I have a feeling that FFXII's Fran will be similar, but since I have Balthier, I'm gonna have to just hold my nose and buy her. XD
02 года назадDelicateThunder
I don't think I will get him unless I win a low bid off of ebay. I loved the FFX line but for the most part the paint jobs really bothered me like Tidus. I did take a risk and bought item #2092 but I think I will make a new base some photos make it look leany...but okayish paint job o_o
I was somewhat wondering how is item #2128
And It's not just Koto that makes fragile figures! Square itself does, I bought Sion and it was broken (mfc link) I think FF needs more love. Also I'm disappointed with the HD release they only made 2 figures but no Re-runes! And no Wakka figure. WHY!? D,:Thanks for the reply to my post! Yeah I used to see it for cheaper but my gut told me not to buy it for $100. I guess due to the HD version merch went up in price....
Yeah, Squeenix's customer service is...less than good. I've heard many complaints on SE Members about their PAK line arriving either broken or defective, and no reply from SE. That's even from people buying directly from their online store! As for that Lulu, don't have that one, but do have the Yuna, Tidus and Auron from that set. The paint isn't bad considering the age of the figures and the detailing on Yuna's outfit is pretty nice. Auron can't hold his awesome sword, the opening in his hands wasn't molded correctly. Still, I'm very happy that I picked them up, FFX is my favorite. (Sorry Cloud!) Lulu will be mine one day.
Speaking of FFVII, have you seen what Squeenix is asking for their new FFVII PAK?! Wow! O_O

According to data released by the New York State Health Foundation, over 7,000 Rensselaer County residents who are currently uninsured will gain health coverage under the Affordable Care Act. Statewide, 1,048,000 - or 38.5 percent of state residents - stand to gain coverage.
The Foundation has produced a data visualization of currently uninsured New Yorkers estimated to gain coverage as health reform is implemented. The interactive map provides a snapshot of those who are expected to gain coverage in New York state as a result of the Act, also known as Obamacare, through either New York's public insurance programs or private plans.
"The map can help focus energy and attention on those communities that offer the greatest opportunities for expanding health insurance coverage," said James R. Knickman, president and CEO of NYSHealth. "The data demonstrates clearly the promise of health reform for New York state."
Data from other area counties:
Albany County: 1,551 - or 38.1 percent - residents will gain health coverage
Saratoga County: 9,269 - or 41.5 percent - residents will gain health coverage

The Woodwinds 1 Collection contains the four main wind instruments, flute, oboe, clarinet, and bassoon - each recorded as a solo instrument and in three player ensembles. First rate musicians of leading European orchestras provide the sound and character as soloists and ensemble leaders. Gisela Mashayekhi-Beer was the first solo flutist of the Zurich Opera orchestra and taught at the Bruckner University Linz and at the Vienna Music University. Markus Deuter was, and is, first oboist of numerous German orchestras; he came to Vienna especially for the recordings of the French oboe. The clarinetist Daniel Horth can look back at an international concert career with the Vienna Philharmonic, the Vienna Symphonic Orchestra, and more. Finally Martin Machovits, among other assignments, is solo bassoon player at the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra.
The solo instruments as well as the ensembles offer fast and slow Interval Performances in legato and marcato styles as well as Performance Trills. Utmost attention was given especially to the sensitive slow legato repetitions of the solo flute and the lyrical and expressive vibrato of the French oboe, most effectively used in the Legato Performances. The flute and clarinet arpeggios (major, minor, and diminished broken chords in legato and staccato styles) are an outstanding specialty, as are the solo flute's mordents and the French oboe's fluttering tonguing.
- Extended articulation list for the ultimate dynamics
