*_The 2010 UMBC Athletic Hall of Fame Class _*
* LaNae Baker*, volleyball (1995-98)—Baker is UMBC's all-time leader in
assists with a staggering 4,722, 1,600 more than any other player in
school history. She is also second in service aces (206), third in digs
(1460) and tied for fourth in matches played (122). The team averaged
more than 24 wins per season in her four years – the most successful
period in school history – won a pair of conference titles and went to
the 1998 NCAA Championships. The native of La Mirada, Calif., was a
First-Team All-Northeast Conference selection in her senior season.
*Kevin Goh*, swimming & diving (1997-01)—Goh was UMBC's Outstanding
Senior Athlete in 2001. He still maintains school records in the 200
breaststroke, the 200 IM and as part of the 400 medley relay team. The
native of Orange Park, Fla., set an ECAC record in the 200 breaststroke
at the 2000 Championships and repeated as champion in the 200 individual
medley. He also set a meet record in the 200 breaststroke at the Nittany
Lion Invitational. Goh captured an ECAC title as a freshman in the 400
IM and qualified for the 2000 Olympic Trials.
*John Jancuska*, head baseball coach (1978-present)— Jancuska has served
UMBC as its head baseball coach for 32 seasons, the longest-tenured
coach in school history. He has compiled over 660 victories, including
19 winning seasons. At the Division I level, he has been named a
conference Coach of the Year in four different leagues. (1992-East
Coast, 1993-Big South, 2000-Northeast, 2008-America East) During his
tenure, UMBC has made three appearances in the NCAA Division II
Tournament (1978, 1979, 1986) and two at the NCAA Division I level
(1992, 2001). Jancuska is a former University of Delaware two-year
starter and co-captain of the baseball team in his senior season of
1975. He was inducted into the Maryland State Association of Baseball
Coaches Hall of Fame in 2000. The Sykesville, Md., resident has coached
five All-Americans, four academic All-Americans and 17 student-athletes
who have played professionally. He and his wife, Lee Ann, have three
daughters and two grandchildren.
*Huguens Jean,* track & field (1999-2003)—The undersized high jumper
capped a brilliant career by placing fourth in the nation in the high
jump at the 2003 NCAA Outdoor Championships. He holds school indoor
records in the high jump and triple jump and an outdoor mark in the high
jump at 2.22 meters (7'3.25"). That mark is believed to be the highest
jump by any athlete competing in the state of Maryland. Jean had placed
10th in the NCAA Indoor Championships in Fayetteville, Ark., three
months prior to his performance outdoors. The Columbia, Md., native and
Howard High School graduate was UMBC's Outstanding Male Athlete in 2003
and was an Academic All-American in 2002 and 2003. He won the 2002
Northeast Conference high jump indoor and outdoor title, as well as the
ECAC indoor title that same year.
*Ingrid Kilpe Huber*, swimming & diving (1993-97)—Kilpe was UMBC's
Outstanding Female Athlete in the spring of 1997. She held the school
record in the 200 individual medley until 2003 and was part of three
relay teams which held school marks. The Columbia, Md., native and
Centennial High School graduate won both the 100 fly and the 200 IM at
the 1996 ECAC Championships. She won a pair of golds at Eastern
Championships in the 100 and 200 butterfly events in 1995 after taking
one gold at the 1994 championships. Kilpe also recorded multiple
victories over ACC opponents, including Duke, N.C. State and Maryland.
*Craig Linthicum*, men's lacrosse (1978-81)—Linthicum was a three-time
All-American, earning Second-Team (1979) and First-Team (1980) honors at
the NCAA Division II level and garnering Honorable Mention recognition
at midfield in UMBC's first Division I season in 1981. He amassed 74
goals and 28 assists for 102 total points in his career and collected
166 ground balls. The native of Cambridge, Md., produced his best season
in the 1980 championship season, when he scored 24 goals and 33 points,
both career bests, and collected 63 ground balls. His teams were a
combined 37-17 with a national runner-up (1979) and national title
(1980) to their credit.
*Monica Logan*, women's basketball (1995-99)—Logan is UMBC's all-time
leading rebounder with 1,141 boards and 10.7 rebounds per game, and she
ranks 16th all-time with 1,036 career points, making her one of just two
players in school history (joining Hall of Famer Tammy McCarthy) to post
both 1,000 points and 1,000 rebounds. Logan also ranks among UMBC's
all-time leaders in a number of other categories, including first in
field goal percentage (.523/415-793), second in blocks (123) and starts
(106), sixth in minutes (3,444) and 12th in assists (201). The native of
College Park, Md., posted three of UMBC's top 10 rebounding seasons,
including the second-highest total ever, 364, as a senior, and her 13.5
rebounds per game that year led the nation and are a school record. Her
47 blocks that season are also UMBC's top mark ever. Logan posted 20
rebounds in a game five times during her career. She was a member of the
1996 Big South All-Rookie Team, the 1997 All-Big South Second Team and
All-Academic Team and the 1999 All-Northeast Conference First Team.
Logan led the Big South Conference in rebounding twice and in blocked
shots once. She also excelled in the classroom, double-majoring in
social work and African-American studies.
*Deanna Vecchio*, softball, (1999-2002)—A shortstop for the softball
team and a catalyst at the top of the lineup from 1999-2002, Vecchio was
a career .353 hitter, a four-time All-Northeast Conference First-Team
selection and the 2002 Northeast Conference Player of the Year. Vecchio
holds UMBC's all-time records in runs scored (179) and stolen bases
(135) and ranks among UMBC's career leaders in nearly every statistical
category, including second in hits (258), fourth in triples (9) and
at-bats (731), fifth in total bases (338), sixth in walks (61), on-base
percentage (.404) and games played and started (215), seventh in average
(.353), 10th in doubles (29) and extra-base hits (49) and 15th in home
runs (11). Her 88 hits in 2002 are the second-most ever in a single
season in UMBC history, and she batted .402 that season, ranking fourth
all-time. The native of Matawan, N.J., also holds UMBC's single-season
record with 68 runs scored as a senior, and she is one of three players
ever to steal 40 bases in a season. Vecchio put together a 26-game
hitting streak in 2002, second-longest in UMBC history. She also earned
National Fastpitch Coaches Association First-Team All-Region honors as a

Around 7,000 years ago (5000 BC) the Earth was enjoying a warm climate:
Then it cooled, allowing those icy areas to form.
Now those glaciers and patches of perennial ice in the high mountains of Southern Norway have started to melt again, as the Earth is warming.
They contain all sorts of archaeological treasures.
Anything from ancient shoes to 5000-year-old arrowheads.
As a result a new kind of archaeology has begun - Glacial archaeology.
In 2006, an amateur archaeologist came across an amazingly well-preserved ancient leather shoe in the Lendbreen ice patch in Norway.
When the shoe was examined and tested, archaeologists discovered the shoe was over 3,000 years old, and dated from the Bronze Age.
"Actually we should be slowly approaching a new ice age.
But in the past 20 years we have witnessed artefacts turning up in summer from increasingly deeper layers of the glaciers." says Lars Pilø.
Lars does fieldwork in glaciers and ice patches, finding things discarded or lost by people long ago.
Glacial archaeology is becoming a fascinating new field of research.

Everyone loves fish, I guess... It happens to be my all-time favourite meat! And the more simple we prepare the fish, the more juicy we're going to have it. Am I not right?
Instead of having it elaborately steamed with mixed pickles and a dazzle of lemon, my much preffered style is the "masak singang" - fish in turmeric soup. It's actually a traditional Malay-Javanese recipe.
My parents have a very strong Javanese backgrounds, so it shows in our daily meals during my childhood. In fact, mum specializes in Javanese recipes! And one of them is the singang fish (Ikan Masak Singang.)
I went to the Marche to get the most imporatant ingredients - the fish and fresh turmeric.
This is what I had for my dinner, Ikan Masak Singang.
All you need to prepare this fish soup are:
1 fish (your choice!)
1 clove of garlic
2 small onions
1/2 thumb size of kunyit (turmeric)
1 chilli (pits removed)
1 dried asam keping or u can replace with 2 spoonfuls of lemon juice.
1 bowl of water
To prepare:
1. Pound clove, small onion and turmeric in a mortar.
2. Heat up the pan and put 2 tablespoons of oil. Fry the pounded ingredients till fragrant and pour in the water and asam keping.
3. Leave the pan of the water to boil. Once boiled, reduce the flame and put in the fish, salt,sugar and turmeric leave (optional). I couldn't find the leaf here :(.
Slow-cook until the fish is well done, and serve it hot.
Anyway, in some other versions they include ginger and other spices; but I am not really into it.
Spanner Crabs and Balmain bugs... I just love the color combination when they were put side by side. I have planned to cook Balmain Bugs in spicy coconut milk (Balmain Bugs Masak Cili Api) one day!

Introduction. This is a counting question about configurations that can appear on the outside of assembled Soma cube-like puzzles. More specifically, it's about the ways in which the pieces of an assembled puzzle can partition the exterior of the cube.
Construction. Suppose you have at your disposal an unlimited supply of every possible cubomino shape, that is, shapes that can be made from one or more unit cubes by gluing faces to faces (glued faces must coincide). Also suppose that you have both red and blue versions of each shape. Now consider complete $s\times s \times s$ oriented cubic "assemblies" of such pieces, with one constraint: like-colored puzzle pieces may not occur face-to-face. (Pieces of the same color may touch at corners or edges.) An assembly need not be achievable with physical pieces. A valid assembly could contain interlocked torus-like pieces, for example.
Set partitions, especially on the boundary. Ignoring color, the individual pieces of a valid assembly partition the cube's $s^3$ unit cube locations. One characteristic of a set partition arising in this way is that its partition elements are each face-connected subsets of the cube. The color rule imposes additional restrictions; for example, no valid assembly yields a partition that contains three mutually adjacent parts.
If we focus our attention on the assembled cube's boundary, we get a set partition of the $s^3-(s-2)^3$ boundary positions. Within the boundary, partition parts need no longer be face-connected subsets, but whether an arbitrary set partition that contains disconnected parts does or not arise from a puzzle assembly depends on whether the disconnected parts can all be "connected up" through the cube's interior. (Example below.)
Question. Call a partition of the cube's boundary lattice-realizable if it occurs in some valid puzzle assembly. Let $c(s)$ be the number of distinct lattice-realizable set partitions of the boundary of an $s\times s\times s$ cube. How does $c(s)$ grow as $s$ grows? In particular, is $c(s) \le M^{(s^2)}$ for some constant $M$?
Context. This construction works without modification in dimensions other than 3.
Let $c(d,s)$ be the number of distinct lattice-realizable set partitions of the boundary of the generalized cube of volume $s^d$. When $d=1$, the cube is an interval of length $s$, the boundary has cardinality 1 or 2 (the endpoint(s)), and there are either 1 or 2 set partitions of the boundary, none of which fail to be lattice-realizable. Trivially, $c(1,s) \le M^{(s^0)}$ for some constant $M$ (any $M\ge 2$ works).
When $d=2$, there is a convenient upper bound for $c(2,s)$: the number of non-crossing partitions on $4s-4$ elements, which is known to be the Catalan number $C_{4s-4}$. Known asymptotics of the Catalan numbers give $c(2,s) \le C_{4s-4} \le M^{(s^1)}$ for constant $M$ ($M=4^4$ works, for example). In contrast, the number of (all, non-crossing or not) set partitions on the $4s-4$ boundary elements is the Bell number $B_{4s-4}$, which is not bounded by $M^{(s^1)}$ for any constant $M$.
For $d=1$ and $d=2$, then, $c(d,s)$ grows no faster than $M^{(s^{d-1})}$. What about $d>2$? Unfortunately, there's no analog for non-crossing partitions when $d>2$. For $d=3$, every set partition of points on the surface of a cube (or sphere) is non-crossing in the sense of being realizable via disjoint connected subsets of the interior of the cube.
Related topics. The problem I'm looking into comes from symbolic dynamics, but it looks like there might be useful results (though I've yet to find them) in various areas of study. Knot theorists have looked at the notion of lattice knots (and other sorts of thickened knots); this gets at one way in which discretization reduces the potential complexity that can appear in a cube. Questions about 3-D or multilayer integrated circuit design concern configurations on a boundary that can arise from internal lattice-like connections, but that research focuses on finding efficient design algorithms, not on counting. Spin models in statistical mechanics, quantum entanglement, holography, and computational linguistics are potentially related topics.
Example. Without loss of generality, position a $3\times3\times3$ cube with opposite corners at $(1,1,1)$ and $(s,s,s)$, and consider the following three-element partition of its 26 boundary positions: two cardinality-two parts: $\{(2,2,1),(2,2,3)\}$ and $\{(1,2,2),(3,2,2)\}$ and one cardinality-24 part (the rest of the boundary). The single interior position of this cube, $(2,2,2)$ can only "connect up" one of the two small partition elements (each of which are disconnected when only the boundary is considered), so no valid puzzle assembly will yield this partition.

Marking the 30th anniversary of its release, Cinema Speakeasy is resurrecting The Evil Dead to witness Sam Raimi make movie magic (and history) with a scary small budget, THEN they'll compare it to the Hollywood budget he had for Evil Dead II. The basics are the same: a creepy cabin in the woods, some book and audio recording conjuring evil spirits from beyond, and this dude Ash running around in the woods dismembering people possessed by demons. If that doesn't raise goosebumps on your arms, then you're probably the evil dead too.
But that's not all! It's a Drink-Along screening too! Here are the rules:
- A human gets possessed by an evil spirit: DRINK!
- Someone suggests going out on their own (or something equally stupid): Yell NOOO! Then DRINK!
- A milky white substance excretes from someone's face: CHEERS and DRINK!
- You're a little scared: LAUGH and DRINK! It'll help. Trust us.

Jewish entrepreneurship and community spirit were celebrated at the annual Promies Awards ceremony held at the Windsor Ballroom by the Jewish Chamber of Commerce, a Federation CJA program.
Five awards were presented to young business people recognizing their achievements and commitment to Jewish life during the elegant evening, sponsored by the accounting firm, Richter. They were chosen from a lengthy list of nominees.
Since 2000, the Promies have honoured a wide array of creative entrepreneurs. Previous winners include the founders of successful international companies like Ice.com and Beyond the Rack, as well as local firms such as Lasik MD, Pazazz Printing Inc. and Olymbec.
"The Montreal Jewish community is often commended for its innovation and entrepreneurial spirit. We believe a ceremony like this, in addition to honouring the individual winners, gives us all a chance to celebrate the industriousness that helps allow our community to thrive," said Marc Yedid, a partner at Richter Consulting Inc., who chaired the 2013 Promies along with Shlomi Levy, Tatiana Londono and Lorne Novolker.
A highlight was the bestowing of the Lifetime Achievement Award upon William Lassner, Howard Stotland and Stan Zack for their roles in founding STS Systems LTD., a multinational retail software company that reached annual sales exceeding $100 million before being sold in 2000.
They were also recognized for their philanthropy and leadership in the community. Before the award presentation, the trio took the stage for an interview, reflecting on their careers and the evolution of the Montreal Jewish business community.
The 2013 Promies winners are:
Sam Steinberg Award
Steven Singer
Glutino/ LIVE.LOVE.SNACK
Morris Goodman Award
Robert Bloom
Dama Construction
Howard Stotland Technology Award
David Baazov
Amaya Gaming

This section provides guidelines for creating session beans in the GlassFish Server environment. This section addresses the following topics:
Information on session beans is contained in the Enterprise JavaBeans Specification, v3.1.
Like an entity bean, a session bean can access a database through Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) calls. A session bean can also provide transaction settings. These transaction settings and JDBC calls are referenced by the session bean's container, allowing it to participate in transactions managed by the container.
A container managing stateless session beans has a different charter from a container managing stateful session beans. This section addresses the following topics:
The stateless container manages stateless session beans, which, by definition, do not carry client-specific states. All session beans (of a particular type) are considered equal.
A stateless session bean container uses a bean pool to service requests. The GlassFish Server specific deployment descriptor file, sun-ejb-jar.xml, contains the properties that define the pool:
For more information about sun-ejb-jar.xml, see The sun-ejb-jar.xml File in Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
The GlassFish Server provides the wscompile and wsdeploy tools to help you implement a web service endpoint as a stateless session bean. For more information about these tools, see the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Reference Manual.
The stateful container manages the stateful session beans, which, by definition, carry the client-specific state. There is a one-to-one relationship between the client and the stateful session beans. At creation, each stateful session bean (SFSB) is given a unique session ID that is used to access the session bean so that an instance of a stateful session bean is accessed by a single client only.
Stateful session beans are managed using cache. The size and behavior of stateful session beans cache are controlled by specifying the following sun-ejb-jar.xml parameters:
The max-cache-size element specifies the maximum number of session beans that are held in cache. If the cache overflows (when the number of beans exceeds max-cache-size), the container then passivates some beans or writes out the serialized state of the bean into a file. The directory in which the file is created is obtained from the EJB container using the configuration APIs.
For more information about sun-ejb-jar.xml, see The sun-ejb-jar.xml File in Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
The passivated beans are stored on the file system. The Session Store Location setting in the EJB container allows the administrator to specify the directory where passivated beans are stored. By default, passivated stateful session beans are stored in application-specific subdirectories created under domain-dir/session-store.
Make sure the delete option is set in the server.policy file, or expired file-based sessions might not be deleted properly. For more information about server.policy, see The server.policy File.
The Session Store Location setting also determines where the session state is persisted.
This section discusses restrictions on developing session beans and provides some optimization guidelines.
For stateful session beans, colocating the stateful beans with their clients so that the client and bean are executing in the same process address space improves performance.
The following restrictions on transactions are enforced by the container and must be observed as session beans are developed:
A session bean can participate in, at most, a single transaction at a time.
If a session bean is participating in a transaction, a client cannot invoke a method on the bean such that the trans-attribute element (or @TransactionAttribute annotation) in the ejb-jar.xml file would cause the container to execute the method in a different or unspecified transaction context or an exception is thrown.
If a session bean instance is participating in a transaction, a client cannot invoke the remove method on the session object's home or business interface object, or an exception is thrown.

Just as in Pac-Man World 2 -- the debut of the series on multiple platforms -- where your job was to take down the evil Spooky, here your job is no less dire. The action begins as the P-Man is about to celebrate his big day -- friends, a cake, the works. Suddenly -- and without warning -- he's whisked away from the serenity that is Pac-Village and sent on a platforming adventure that'll put him in hot pursuit of a brilliant, but misguided mastermind named Erwin. It seems that Erwin has invented a machine that has somehow bridged the world of the ghosts and the real world. And faster than you can say "portal to hell," Pac-Man finds himself in the middle of an inter-dimensional adventure.
If you played Pac-Man's last go-round, you'll have no trouble getting your yellow roundness on in episode three. The basic control scheme for punching, jumping, butt-bouncing, and rolling is identical. Now, though, you can also take advantage of some new moves. You'll be able to climb fences, jump up walls, and do complex swinging and punching combos. (Apparently, Pac-Man spent the three years since his last game watching plenty of Jackie Chan and Jet Li flicks.) In addition to the slick new moves, you'll also have an arsenal of funky power-ups to dip into. These will give you extra strength, the power to slow down time, and the ability to pull of a Super Butt Bounce.
You'll need all this newfound ability to tackle the game's many levels. There were over a dozen levels listed in the preview build I bounced through -- although some of them I didn't have access to. What struck me wasn't so much the variety of environments you have to make your way through, but the somewhat eerie and dark nature of them. While much of Pac-Man World 2 was played out in the lush and sunny outlying areas of Pac-Village, here almost all of the action takes place in slightly creeped-out, almost post-apocalyptic settings. The tone of the game remains light -- we're not talking Pac-Man: The Dark Knight Returns here -- but the look of the game may surprise some gamers who like to do their fruit-gobbling and trinket-hunting in more traditional and upbeat platforming environs.

The Adobe PostScript printer driver (AdobePS) enables you to print documents from Macintosh applications to a PostScript printer. AdobePS provides several features not found in the standard PSPrinter 8.x and Apple LaserWriter 8.x printer drivers, such as watermark printing, additional n-up options, and greater support for many popular applications.
This version of the Adobe PostScript printer driver is only for owners of International English versions of Macintosh computers who print to devices containing Adobe PostScript.
AdobePS 8.5.1 provides the following new features:
-- Single-pass foreground printing: AdobePS 8.5.1 provides single-pass foreground printing and two-pass background printing. You can select that option within your application. Single-pass foreground printing allows AdobePS to print large documents or graphic-intensive documents directly to your printer, without interim storage on your hard disk.
-- Change printers from the Print dialog box: AdobePS 8.5.1 enables you to change printers within the Print dialog box rather than only through the Chooser.
-- Enhanced user interface: AdobePS 8.5.1 provides an enhanced user interface that simplifies the print-setup and printing processes.
-- Support for PostScript 3: AdobePS 8.5.1 supports PostScript 3 devices, as well as Levels 1 and 2 products. It is the first Macintosh printer driver to support Adobe PostScript 3 features.
|PostScript printer drivers
|File Name
|File Size
|Proceed to Download
An Apple Macintosh computer or equivalent
Apple System 7.1 or later
4 MB or more of memory
2 MB of available hard disk space
Apple ColorSync 2.0.1, if using the AdobePS ColorSync features
Any printer that includes Adobe PostScript
A PostScript Printer Description (PPD) file for your printer
Installation of this driver requires a PostScript Printer Description (PPD) file for your printer.
If you need a PPD file, do one or more of the following:
1. Most PostScript printers include a floppy disk that contains the PPD file for the printer. If you cannot find this disk, contact your printer manufacturer for a replacement.
2. Visit your printer manufacturer's Web site or FTP site to obtain the PPD file.
3. Visit Adobe online services such as the Adobe Web site, which may have the PPD file you need. SPECIAL NOTE: Adobe redistributes a number of PPD files for Macintosh and Windows as a courtesy to Adobe customers but does not guarantee to have the PPD file you need.
4. If you work with a service bureau or print shop to create professionally printed documents, they may have the PPD file you need.
Your printer manufacturer is ultimately responsible for providing you with a PPD file. Neither Adobe nor your service provider is obligated to provide you with a PPD file.
To install AdobePS 8.5.1:
1. Ensure that your Macintosh is running System 7.1 or later.
2. Have your PPD file ready, either on a floppy disk or on your hard drive before you install AdobePS.
3. Quit all open applications.
4. Double-click the the AdobePS Installer icon.
6. Follow the on-screen instructions until the installation is complete.
Installing this version of AdobePS will overwrite any previous version of AdobePS, but will not affect other printer drivers (e.g., LaserWriter, FaxPrinter, PSPrinter).
This printer driver was formerly known as Adobe PSPrinter. This printer driver is not for owners of non-PostScript printers. To determine if your printer includes PostScript, check your printer's documentation or contact your printer's manufacturer.
PPD files are stored in the Printer Descriptions folder in the Extensions folder in the System Folder.
This driver supports PostScript Level 1, PostScript Level 2, and PostScript Level 3 devices.

switch Statement (C)
switch and case statements help control complex conditional and branching operations. The
switch statement transfers control to a statement within its body.
switch ( expression ) statement
case constant-expression : statement
default : statement
Control passes to the statement whose case constant-expression matches the value of switch ( expression ). The
switch statement can include any number of case instances, but no two case constants within the same
switch statement can have the same value. Execution of the statement body begins at the selected statement and proceeds until the end of the body or until a break statement transfers control out of the body.
Use of the
switch statement usually looks something like this:
switch ( expression )
// declarations
// . . .
case constant_expression:
// statements executed if the expression equals the
// value of this constant_expression
// statements executed if expression does not equal
// any case constant_expression
You can use the break statement to end processing of a particular case within the
switch statement and to branch to the end of the
switch statement. Without break, the program continues to the next case, executing the statements until a break or the end of the statement is reached. In some situations, this continuation may be desirable.
The default statement is executed if no case constant-expression is equal to the value of switch ( expression ). If the default statement is omitted, and no case match is found, none of the statements in the
switch body are executed. There can be at most one default statement. The default statement need not come at the end; it can appear anywhere in the body of the
switch statement. A case or default label can only appear inside a
switch statement.
The type of
switch expression and case constant-expression must be integral. The value of each case constant-expression must be unique within the statement body.
The case and default labels of the
switch statement body are significant only in the initial test that determines where execution starts in the statement body. Switch statements can be nested. Any static variables are initialized before executing into any
switch statements.
Declarations can appear at the head of the compound statement forming the
switch body, but initializations included in the declarations are not performed. The
switch statement transfers control directly to an executable statement within the body, bypassing the lines that contain initializations.
The following examples illustrate
switch statements:
switch( c )
case 'A':
case 'a':
default :
All three statements of the
switch body in this example are executed if
c is equal to
'A' since a break statement does not appear before the following case. Execution control is transferred to the first statement (
capa++;) and continues in order through the rest of the body. If
c is equal to
lettera and
total are incremented. Only
total is incremented if
c is not equal to
'A' or
switch( i )
case -1:
case 0 :
case 1 :
In this example, a break statement follows each statement of the
switch body. The break statement forces an exit from the statement body after one statement is executed. If
i is equal to -1, only
n is incremented. The break following the statement
n++; causes execution control to pass out of the statement body, bypassing the remaining statements. Similarly, if
i is equal to 0, only
z is incremented; if
i is equal to 1, only
p is incremented. The final break statement is not strictly necessary, since control passes out of the body at the end of the compound statement, but it is included for consistency.
A single statement can carry multiple case labels, as the following example shows:
case 'a' :
case 'b' :
case 'c' :
case 'd' :
case 'e' :
case 'f' : hexcvt(c);
In this example, if constant-expression equals any letter between
'a' and
'f', the
hexcvt function is called.
Microsoft Specific
Microsoft C does not limit the number of case values in a
switch statement. The number is limited only by the available memory. ANSI C requires at least 257 case labels be allowed in a
switch statement.
The default for Microsoft C is that the Microsoft extensions are enabled. Use the /Za compiler option to disable these extensions.
END Microsoft Specific

UBS Agrees to Sell Correspondent Services Corporation to Fidelity
UBS announced today that it has signed a definitive agreement to sell Correspondent Services Corporation ("CSC"), a division of UBS PaineWebber, to Fidelity Investments for an undisclosed price. A member of the New York Stock Exchange, CSC focuses on providing clearance, execution, settlement, administrative and management information services to brokerage clients and others within the financial services industry.
We are pleased to announce the sale of CSC to Fidelity, said Joseph J. Grano, Jr., chairman and chief executive officer, UBS PaineWebber. This transaction reinforces UBS PaineWebber's focus on our primary business -- providing wealth management services to affluent individual investors. We believe CSC represents an attractive opportunity for Fidelity to add more than 150 clients to its significant correspondent clearing business. Increasingly, this business requires scale, and this transaction enables Fidelity to accelerate the growth of its core clearing business."
This acquisition fits strategically with Fidelity and should benefit the correspondent clearing clients of both companies," said Robert L. Reynolds, Fidelity vice chairman and chief operating officer. We are committed to this business and believe this combination will help ensure our ability to continue to provide clients with the technology, products and service they require to further strengthen and grow their businesses."
The transaction is expected to close during the second quarter of 2003. Upon closing of the transaction, UBS expects a net post-tax result from the transaction near breakeven after the deduction of taxes of approximately $120 million, the amortization of goodwill associated with CSC, and other transaction-related costs. UBS PaineWebber has agreed to provide certain services to clients of the acquired business during the next year to ensure an orderly transition.
UBS is a leading global financial services firm with 69,000 employees worldwide, providing a wide range of services to a client base that includes affluent individuals, corporations, institutions and governments. Headquartered in Zurich and Basel, the bank has significant operations in all of the world's major financial centers and is comprised of four business groups: UBS Wealth Management & Business Banking, UBS Global Asset Management, UBS Warburg, and UBS PaineWebber.
UBS PaineWebber serves the wealth management needs of more than 2 million clients with more than 8,800 financial advisors in 365 branch offices nationwide.
Fidelity Investments is one of the world's largest providers of financial services, with custodied assets of $1.4 trillion, including managed assets of $759.6 billion as of January 31, 2003. Fidelity offers investment management, retirement planning, brokerage, human resources and benefits outsourcing services to 18 million individuals and institutions as well as through 5,500 financial intermediaries. The firm is the largest mutual fund company in the United States, the No. 1 provider of workplace retirement savings plans, one of the largest mutual fund supermarkets and a leading online brokerage firm.

It has been more than two years since Harry Ingram bought the assets of the Taylorcraft Aviation Co. and set up a factory in LaGrange, Texas, with intentions of producing the tried and true F-22 design. When General Aviation News interviewed Ingram in May 2003, he predicted the first aircraft would be delivered by Aug. 15, 2003.
But, the plans of mice and men — and apparently aircraft manufacturers — often do not go according to schedule. When we interviewed Ingram in September 2004, he stated that no aircraft had been delivered yet and predicted it would be the end of October before deliveries began. When we spoke with him in October, he said December was a more likely timeframe.
"This is a new process for us," Ingram said. "We have these old drawings that we have to update with new materials, then the drawings have to be approved by the FAA."
He concedes he underestimated how long it would take to get the production line into operation.
"Getting the permits we needed took longer than we thought it would," he said in a telephone interview. "We purchased the company two-and-a-half years ago and applied for the permit to build the F-22 under Part 21 Subpart F 21.123 or production under Type Certificate only. That means the FAA has to inspect every aircraft we build. We also applied for Parts Manufacturing Authority so that we could build spare parts for all 23 models listed on the Type Certificate. It took until May 11 of this year to get the PMA. It took us two years to get the wing drawings into shape and prove to the FAA that we could do this correctly."
Taylorcraft began in the 1920s when C.G. and Gordon Taylor decided to build a small plane that didn't break the bank. The first design was the two-seat Chummy. Over the years production has started and stopped like a school bus along its route. Ingram is the sixth owner the company has had in the last 17 years. The last time the F-22 was mass produced was 11 years ago.
According to Ingram, the company is working with the FAA in order to get a production certificate so that they can mass produce aircraft. In the meantime, the company will build a few at a time under the Type Certificate.
That's perfectly legal, says Robert Robino, manager of the FAA's San Antonio manufacturing and inspection district office, but it makes more work for his office.
"If the company holds the Type Certificate to an aircraft, which Taylorcraft does, then it has the right to produce that aircraft," Robino said. "But there is a tremendous amount of FAA involvement while producing under the TC because the FAA has to inspect the aircraft at regular intervals, such as when the frames are welded together, then after they get covered and so forth."
Acquiring the production certificate involves a lot of paperwork to show the FAA that the design is sound and that the company has quality control measures in place, Robino says. The fact that Taylorcraft has been around in one form or another for so many years is both a blessing and a curse in this respect.
"Even when you buy a design that has been around a long time, you still have to take the time to get your production line going and you have to figure out where to put the tools in the factory," he says. "We have to make sure they have the capability to build this aircraft, such as do they have all the tools and fixtures and do they know how to use them. They are coming up to speed, but you need to understand it takes time. There's a lot of information out there on this aircraft, but it has traveled around from holder to holder. They are digging through boxes trying to find everything. They also need to write a quality control manual. When they produce a full aircraft, they will need to establish flight test procedures. They have to have a quality control system in place that covers everything from the raw materials coming into the factory to assembly to the end aircraft going out the door. The fact they have the PMA means they have an approved system in place. They can keep producing parts and use that system as they work incrementally toward production of a complete aircraft."
When the company opened its doors, Ingram's first priority was supplying existing Taylorcraft owners with parts. While most owners were pleased that someone was carrying on the line, there were also some growing pains.
General Aviation News received phone calls and emails from Taylorcraft owners who ordered replacement parts from Ingram's operation and said that the parts were old stock produced years ago and not airworthy. Others said they ordered parts and were promised delivery dates, but when the parts didn't arrive on time and they called to ask about them, Ingram allegedly gave them excuses or misled them about the factory's ability to make the parts.
Craig Helm says his problems with the factory began in October 2003 when he tried to get replacement fuel tanks for his aircraft. When he contacted the factory, Ingram told him replacement tanks would be ready in 10 days.
"Ten days came and went with no tanks," said the Graham, Texas resident. "So Steve Pierce, my mechanic, and I asked Harry if he could build us a tank to our specifications as an owner-produced part. He agreed and said we'd have the tank within a week. That week came and went."
Ingram blamed the delays on paperwork issues with the FAA, Helm said.
"He told us the tanks were done except for the FAA approval. Then Steve contacted someone at the factory, who let it slip that they were not even working on the fuel tanks and that nothing had been submitted to the FAA," he said. "We were told the fuel tanks were a low priority."
Helm kept calling Ingram to find out the status of the replacement tanks.
"Harry told me they had some problems with the FAA, but that he would have a tank built by Friday," he said. "This call was made on Tuesday. I told Harry I would call on Friday and see how things were coming. When I called on Friday, Harry said the tank was not complete, but that the sheet metal had been cut and all that was lacking was to weld it together. We agreed again that this tank would be identical to the existing F21B tanks without the tabs.
A few days later he called to say the new tank was ready. I hired a driver to make the five-hour trip to LaGrange to pick up the tank. Instead of a new tank, I got a used tank with the tabs cut off. You could see where it had been drilled out of the wing of another F-22."
Frustrated, Helm posted his experiences on the Internet on the Taylorcraft Foundation Discussion Forum, on a message board titled "problems dealing with Harry Ingram and the factory".
"I knew there had to be other aircraft owners out there that were having similar problems and I didn't want them wasting their time or money too," said Helm.
"We had a fuel tank issue," Ingram concedes. "We had to redesign it. That took six months longer than I thought it would."
Ingram notes that he did not charge Helm for the replacement tank.
"It's not about the money," said Helm. "I just wish he had been up front with us from the beginning because then we could have approached the problem from a different angle. Instead he strung me along for three or four months."
Ingram is understandably defensive about the criticism he's received, noting that he has worked with customers to try to solve their problems.
Some of the comments on the web board were irrational rants and personal attacks on Ingram and others, by people hiding behind screen names. The posts became so abusive that the board administrator had an email trace done to find the guilty parties. Moderators then pulled the negative comments and the administrator of the site established a policy forbidding the posting of any negative comments about Taylorcraft or dealings with the factory.
That decision worries some former posters. GAN received an email from one man who expressed concern that other people would not be able to do due diligence before they put down $60,000 for a new airplane.
The San Antonio Better Business Bureau has not received any complaints about the Taylorcraft Co.
Ingram does have his fans. Anyone who can produce a new aircraft that sells for $60,000 is going to be popular with pilots. GAN heard from several people who are pulling for Ingram and looking forward to getting parts from the factory or have had a chance to visit the facility and are planning to buy one of the new Taylorcrafts.
"I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt," stated Lee Dautreuil from New Iberia, La. "I would like to see the business do well. Right now I feel comfortable, we will see in another month or two what is happening. I don't think Harry understood the industry and how it works and how long it takes to build things and get FAA approval. Once that happens, I think the aircraft will move out pretty quick. This will be easier than someone starting out with a new design because the airplane has a proven record of 70 years."
Ingram said he's looking forward to manufacturing TaylorSports, which are aircraft that fall into the new Light Sport Aircraft category.
"We're ready to do it," he said. "We have seven of them sold already."

Just For Fun Friday! 1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You're a big girl. If
it's up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down.
You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it
2. Sunday = sports. It's like the full moon or the
changing of the tides. Let it be.
3. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going
to think of it that way.
4. Crying is blackmail.
5. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
6. "Yes" and "No" are perfectly acceptable answers to
almost every question.
7. Come to us with a problem only if you want help
solving it. That's what we do. Sympathy is what your
girlfriends are for.
8. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem.
See a doctor.
9. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an
argument. In fact, all comments become null and void
after 7 days.
10. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret
girls, don't expect us to act like soap opera guys.
11. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't
ask us.
12. If something we said or do can be interpreted two
ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we
meant the other one.
13. You can either ask us to do something or tell us
how you want it done. Not both. If you already know
best how to do it, just do it yourself.
14. Whenever possible, please say what
ever you have to
say during commercials.
15. Christopher Columbus did not need directions, and
neither do we.
16. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default
settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color.
Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea
what mauve is.
17. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
18. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we
will act like nothing's wrong. We know you are lying,
but it is just not worth the hassle.
19. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to,
expect an answer you don't want to hear.
20. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything
you wear is fine. Really.
21. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you
are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the
shotgun formation, or monster trucks.
22. You have enough clothes.
23. You have too many shoes.
24. DRINKS are as exciting for us as handbags are for you.
25. I am in shape. ROUND is a shape.

The bottom line is control freaks like to be in charge. If you answered "yes" to one or more of the above questions, you are probably dealing with the control freak. You may also want to consider whether or not you in fact are a victim in an abusive relationship.

The other day I dropped in on my sister who is single. I found her reading a book and listening to music, curled up in a very comfortable pose on the chaise. She talked about a symphony she was going to attend and an evening of elegance she had scheduled for the following week. i could scarcely get a word in as my sister shared what she had planned to do next.
I thought of how many women come home alone, dead-bolt the front door, and live with the echo of emptiness in the house. maybe their lives don't resemble the pictures of vibrant, loving relationships that are used to market everything. One can hardly pick up a box of tooth paste without seeing images of attractive couples playing on the beach in scanty attire. These ads sell products, but they also sell the idea that happiness depends on the presence of someone else. It's no wonder so many believe that real joy begins and ends with the feel of another person's heartbeat. But one can be in a relationship and still feel alone. And one can be single and never lonely.
So if you find yourself single today, you have lots of company. But there's no need to be lonely. You have given the gift of life and enjoy it you must. Real joy and sustained peace come from within, nourished by a healthy engagement with one's life and comfort with oneself. If you don't enjoy your own company, no one else will either. Fun-loving people attract others because they start the party before any guest arrives.
Are you single and feeling a little blue? Challenge yourself to switch up your routine. Start dating yourself. Take a coworker out to dinner or a play, enroll in dance classes, volunteer in your neighborhood, serve on a church committee, go on a cruise with good friends. If you 're melancholy, see it as an opportunity to broaden your interest, deepen existing relationships, and bolster your faith in God.
Having faith replaces loneliness with the recognition that our lives are divinely orchestrated. Faith seasons the heart with a sense of purpose and the awareness that we are not wandering alone on the planet. Being single is not a perpetual state.

Mod: Sabrar
Speed: Normal - Pseudo-Nightless (Night actions must be sent in advance during the day prior - backup and conditional action submissions are permitted).
Bastardry: Some
General Rules
3. Please stay on topic.
4. Don't lurk through the whole game; if you need to drop out, tell me. Really bad lurkers risk replacement or modkill. I am serious about this one!
5. If you aren't part of the game, please do not post in this thread.
6. You're alive until you are hammered in a lynch, or the mod tells you that you're dead, by PM or in thread.
7. If you die, don't say anything for the rest of the game except a simple, "Bah, you got me," which reveals no information.
8. You may not post verbatim or quote from your role PM or any other messages sent to you by the mod. Paraphrasing is fine.
9. You may not edit your posts.
10. You may not play to lose, or act in a way that is clearly against your win condition.
11. You may not use encryption systems in order to communicate privately or circumvent these rules.
12. This is a game; it's meant to be fun. Personal attacks or other offensive behaviour towards other players will not be tolerated.
Specific Game Rules:
2. You may post in thread during the day phase but not the night phase. It is night when the deadline is reached, the mod posts a day-end post or a hammer vote is cast. Note that this means you may not post content after a hammer vote or after the deadline.
3. All votes should be made by posting on a new line, IN BOLD. For example,
VOTE: Sabrar
4. You do NOT have to unvote to change votes, but it makes things easier and will be very much appreciated if you do. You can unvote in bold and on a new line, like this:
VOTE: Rarbas
5. If you have questions, either post them IN BOLD in this thread, or PM me. I may not answer, but at least I can promise to never lie in any official communication about the game.
6. You may only communicate with other players by PM if I have specifically said you can do so. You must CC me in all PMs.
7. This game is nightless - see details below.
8. At the start of each day phase I will reveal the alignments of all players killed since the start of the previous day phase. Role names will be also revealed, precise role details however not.
9. If the deadline is reached and no player has been hammered, then the person with the most votes at the deadline will be lynched.
10. A tied vote at day end will result in No Lynch in all cases.
11. You can vote not to lynch anyone by casting a vote for "NL" or "No Lynch". "No Lynch" will be treated exactly the same as any other player for determining votal results.
Nightless Setup
Kill: X
Back-up Kill: Y
If X is lynched or otherwise killed at the end of the day, I will treat the Mafia as having decided to kill Y that night instead.
Please confirm in the thread that you've received your role pm and read the rules. Day 1 will start after a sufficient majority of players have confirmed but latest 24 hours from now as everybody should already be aware of the intended starting date.

PSU, PHS test STEM teaching methods
Monday, April 22, 2013 2:00 AM
Pittsburg, KS
It's commonly accepted that the fields of science, technology, engineering and math are becoming increasingly important to a students' education and opportunities in the workforce. What's not so commonly accepted is the best way to implement what's referred to as STEM education into classrooms at the K-12 and university levels.
On Tuesday, April 23, students and faculty from Pittsburg State University and Pittsburg High School will begin a project aimed at finding the most effective methods of delivery of STEM education in southeast Kansas schools. The project will take place at Pittsburg High School's Center of Applied Learning technology lab.
Dubbed the i-STEM Project, the goal of the 10-day activity is to test a variety of creative teaching strategies and methods that are effective and could be easily replicated in other schools. The project was designed by STEM educators at PSU and PHS, as well as students in PSU's Contextual Topics in Technology Class, taught by assistant professor Mike Neden.
"The purpose of the project is to show students why STEM education is important and relevant to their current and future lives," Neden said. "A lot of times we'll teach a concept, the kids will never use it, and so they forget it. What we want to do is teach these concepts in a way that actually means something to the students and use real-life scenarios to show them how and why it matters."
More than 65 PHS freshmen will participate in the project, which will be conducted in 10 50-minute class periods. Each student will spend three full class periods in each STEM area and a final, culminating assessment session.
The project will center around the AeroMax at Gorilla Gulch, a motorized ramp for model cars that was designed and built by PSU technology students.
"The idea is that by using this ramp our students built, we can reinforce the STEM concepts by showing their practical use," Neden said. "It's just one way that we can help all of the students make sense of what we're teaching and show them how that knowledge is used in the real world."
After the project, the i-STEM teams will meet to determine the next phase of the project for the following school year.
