|Oracle Call Interface Programmer's Guide
Release 9.0.1
Part Number A89857-01
OCI Relational Functions, 29 of 39
Associates an item in a select-list with the type and output data buffer.
sword OCIDefineByPos ( OCIStmt *stmtp, OCIDefine **defnpp, OCIError *errhp, ub4 position, dvoid *valuep, sb4 value_sz, ub2 dty, dvoid *indp, ub2 *rlenp, ub2 *rcodep, ub4 mode );
A handle to the requested SQL query operation.
A pointer to a pointer to a define handle. If this parameter is passed as null, this call implicitly allocates the define handle. In the case of a redefine, a non-null handle can be passed in this parameter. This handle is used to store the define information for this column.
An error handle you can pass to
OCIErrorGet() for diagnostic information in the event of an error.
The position of this value in the select list. Positions are 1-based and are numbered from left to right. For example, in the
SELECT statement
SELECT empno, ssn, mgrno FROM employees;
empno is at position 1,
ssn is at position 2, and
mgrno is at position 3.
A pointer to a buffer or an array of buffers of the type specified in the
dty parameter. A number of buffers can be specified when results for more than one row are desired in a single fetch call.
The size of each
valuep buffer in bytes. If the data is stored internally in VARCHAR2 format, the number of characters desired, if different from the buffer size in bytes, may be additionally specified by using
In a multibyte conversion environment, a truncation error will be generated if the number of bytes specified is insufficient to handle the number of characters desired.
If the OCI_ATTR_CHARSET_ID attribute is set to OCI_UTF16ID (replaces the deprecated OCI_UCS2ID, which is retained for backward compatibility), all data passed to and received with the corresponding define call is assumed to be in UTF-16 encoding.
|See Also:
The data type. Named data type (SQLT_NTY) and
REF (SQLT_REF) are valid only if the environment has been initialized in object mode.
SQLT_CHAR and SQLT_LNG can be specified for
CLOB columns, and SQLT_BIN sand SQLT_LBI for
BLOB columns.
See Also:
For a listing of datatype codes and values, refer to Chapter 3, "Datatypes"
pointer to an indicator variable or array. For scalar data types, pointer to sb2 or an array of sb2s. Ignored for SQLT_NTY defines. For SQLT_NTY defines, a pointer to a named data type indicator structure or an array of named data type indicator structures is associated by a subsequent
OCIDefineObject() call.
|See Also:
Pointer to array of length of data fetched. Each element in
rlenp is the length of the data (in bytes, unless the data in
valuep is in Unicode, when it is in codepoints) in the corresponding element in the row after the fetch.
Pointer to array of column-level return codes
The valid modes are:
OCIDefineDynamic() to set up a callback function that will be invoked to receive the dynamically allocated buffers and. The
valuep and
value_sz parameters are ignored in this mode.
This call defines an output buffer which will receive data retrieved from Oracle. The define is a local step which is necessary when a
SELECT statement returns data to your OCI application.
This call also implicitly allocates the define handle for the select-list item. If a non-null pointer is passed in
*defnpp, the OCI assumes that this points to a valid handle that has been previously allocated with a call to
OCIHandleAlloc() or
OCIDefineByPos(). This would be true in the case of an application which is redefining a handle to a different addresses so it can reuse the same define handle for multiple fetches.
Defining attributes of a column for a fetch is done in one or more calls. The first call is to
OCIDefineByPos(), which defines the minimal attributes required to specify the fetch.
Following the call to
OCIDefineByPos() additional define calls may be necessary for certain data types or fetch modes:
is necessary to set up skip parameters for an array fetch of multiple columns.
REF fetch. In this case the data buffer pointer in
OCIDefineByPos() is ignored.
OCIDefineArrayOfStruct() and
OCIDefineObject() must be called after
OCIDefineByPos() in order to fetch multiple rows with a column of named data types.
For a LOB define, the buffer pointer must be a pointer to a LOB locator of type OCILobLocator, allocated by the
OCIDescriptorAlloc() call. LOB locators, and not LOB values, are always returned for a LOB column. LOB values can then be fetched using OCI LOB calls on the fetched locator. This same mechanism is true for all descriptor datatypes.
For NCHAR (fixed and varying length), the buffer pointer must point to an array of bytes sufficient for holding the required NCHAR characters.
Nested table columns are defined and fetched like any other named data type.
When defining an array of descriptors or locators, you should pass in an array of pointers to descriptors or locators.
When doing an array define for character columns, you should pass in an array of character buffers.
If the
mode parameter is this call is set to OCI_DYNAMIC_FETCH, the client application can fetch data dynamically at runtime. Runtime data can be provided in one of two ways:
OCIDefineDynamic(). When the client library needs a buffer to return the fetched data, the callback will be invoked and the runtime buffers provided will return a piece or the whole data.
a polling mechanism using calls supplied by the OCI. This mode is assumed if no callbacks are defined. In this case, the fetch call returns the OCI_NEED_DATA error code, and a piecewise polling method is used to provide the data.

- What are the strengths and limitations of individuals and of the board as a whole?
- What gaps and development needs can realistically be addressed?
- What risks or opportunities can we see for your business?
- How can your board improve its performance?
The answers to questions like these help companies take better advantage of current opportunities and plan their future more accurately. And whatever question we address with you, you can be assured of practical and actionable outcomes.

Former offensive linemen Larry Allen and Jonathan Ogden, Buccaneers standouts Warren Sapp and John Lynch, single-season sack leader Michael Strahan and kicker Morten Andersen are among the 13 first-year eligible candidates for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
The complete list of candidates (which you can see here) includes 127 names, which will be whittled down to 25 semifinalists in late November. Then that group will be culled to 15 names which will be announced in January, and voted on (to determine a class of five, maximum) the day before the Super Bowl.
Two senior nominees — former Chiefs and Oilers nose tackle Curley Culp and former Packers and Redskins linebacker Dave Robinson— are voted upon separately, for a maximum class of seven.
The 2013 list of modern-era nominees includes 89 players, 14 coaches and 24 contributors.
Last year's 10 finalists who missed the cut and return to the ballot include running back Jerome Bettis, wide receivers Tim Brown, Cris Carter and Andre Reed, guard Will Shields, defensive end Charles Haley, linebacker Kevin Greene, cornerback Aeneas Williams along with Bill Parcells and Ed DeBartolo, Jr.
The other first-year eligible nominees also include quarterback Steve McNair, running back Priest Holmes, wide Receiver Keenan McCardell, center Tom Nalen, defensive tackles Sam Adams and Ted Washington and defensive end Bryant Young.

There's no evidence that bubble bath causes urinary tract infections (UTIs), but parents are often cautioned not to use bubble bath because it can sometimes lead to UTIs.
Bubble bath or any kind of strong soap – even soapy water – can irritate the opening of a child's urethra. Once the urethra is irritated, it can become painful for a child to urinate, causing her to hold in urine and giving bacteria a place to grow.
Other leading causes of UTIs are not emptying the bladder completely, constipation, and poor toilet hygiene (such as wiping back to front in girls).
Making sure your child wipes properly and drinks plenty of water (so she urinates regularly and doesn't get constipated) may do more to prevent UTIs than avoiding bubble baths.
But if your child seems prone to urinary tract infections, it's definitely a good idea to ban the bubbles. And if your child already has a UTI or inflammation around the urethra, a bubble bath is likely to aggravate already sensitive skin. Ask your child's doctor if you're not sure whether to use bubble bath.

The Kansas City Chiefs are a buzz pick as a sleeper team this season, but any success they may enjoy won't be explained by gritty senior leadership.
The Kansas City Star pointed out Saturday that the Chiefs are the NFL's only team without a player over the age of 30. The team has six players sitting on 30 -- including quarterback Matt Cassel -- but no one beyond that age.
» Learn more about Coaches Film
The opposite of the Chiefs? The New England Patriots, who have a whopping 13 players on their roster at 31 or over. This can't be considered a surprise if you remember the personnel habits of one William Stephen Belichick. Three other teams -- the Arizona Cardinals (11), Baltimore Ravens (10) and Buffalo Bills (10) -- crack double-digits in the 31-Plus Club.
The second-youngest roster belongs to the Seattle Seahawks -- only 31-year-old cornerback Marcus Trufant qualifies.
Of course, this wasn't necessarily some grand plan orchestrated by Romeo Crennel and the rest of the Chiefs brain trust. Back in March, the team tried and failed to sign both Peyton Manning (36) and Reggie Wayne (33).
"I'm not saying we didn't try to get some veterans," Crennel said. "We had some guys in who made decisions to go other places. As it works out, we've got a younger roster, so we'll coach those guys and try to get them better quickly."
So no, don't get too wrapped up in the Chiefs' relative dearth of experience. The team will get by without reaching out to the city's teenage babysitter community.

Based on Ms. Lou Elliot Jones' article regarding the Levy county commission passing a resolution in support of the practice of fox/coyote penning, one should ask, what were they thinking. For them to support this practice of pack dogs chasing down foxes and coyotes while in a penned area regarless of size, implies that they condone animal cruelty.

CD Ladder Calculator
CD investors may hesitate to invest too much money at one time, especially if better interest rates may be available in the near future. CD laddering is a great solution because it involves diversifying among a range of different maturity dates. The investor benefits by having regular access to money, while taking advantage of the higher yields available on longer maturities.

GET THE FACE! kim kardashians wedding makeup *the complete list*
***EXCLUSIVE*** Here it is, finally! The COMPLETE list of products I used on Kim Kardashian to create her wedding look. Read below to learn how you can Get the Face!
She looked like a beautiful Angel at the altar
Giving Princess Kimmy some finishing touches 🙂
Skin –
To prep Kims skin, I used The Moisturizing Lotion by La Mer all over the face and neck.
I applied Diorskin Nude Natural Glow Hydrating Makeup by Dior to even out the skin tone.
To cover and highlight under the eyes, I used By Terry's Touche Veloutee concealer.
I set her makeup using Chanel Poudre Universelle Libre Natural Finish Loose Powder.
Eyes –
I brushed Kim's brows then filled them in using L'Oreal Paris Brow Stylist Custom Brow Shaping Pencil in Light Brown.
To define and play up Kim'e eyes, I used Lancôme 5 Pan Eyeshadow Palette in Golden Frenzy. I swept the light golden shade all over the lids and I applied the darker shade along her crease with a small liner brush. I used the lightest shadow on the brow bone to highlight.
Along the lower lash line, I swept a touch of the golden/bronze shades, focusing more towards the outer corners.
I lined her eyes (top lid only) using Cover Girl Line Exact Liquid Liner in Very Black. Start out with a thin line at the inner corner and gradually thicken the line as you go towards the outer corners. Wing the liner up and out.
To give her lashes (both top and bottom) more length and volume, I applied two coats of Lancôme Hypnôse Doll Lashes mascara in So Black!
Cheeks –
On the apples of cheeks, I applied Lancôme Blush Subtil in Rose Romantique. (A sheer peachy tone) Smile and sweep right on the apple blending out and up.
To warm up Kims skin and contour her cheeks, I used Guerlain Teracotta bronzing powder. I brushed a bit all along the hairline and jawline. I also applied some along the hollows of her cheeks to contour.
I gave Kim radiant, glowing skin with Giella's Eye M Glam highlighter. I applied some along her cheek bones to give a dewey effect, on the bridge of her nose, cupids bow (right above the center of upper lip) and I also swept it along her decolletage, shoulders and arms. Lastly, I applied it to the inner corners of her eyes using a small liner brush to brighten and open the eyes.
I defined her lips using YSL Dessin Des Levres lipliner in Nude Beige followed by Lancôme's L'Absolu Nu lipstick in Coral Sand. (A sheer peachy lipstick.)
I finished off her lips by adding a touch of shine with Lancôme La Laque Fever lipgloss in Ravishing Coral. (Very pretty color for any skin tone)
To keep Kim looking fresh from the day and into the evening, I used TATCHA Aburatorigami Japanese Blotting Papers. (They're all natural and powder free.)
Hope you all like it! Give it a try and if you do, please send me the pics 😉 Xo Mario

Jan Massys was the son of painter Quentin Metsys. He left Antwerp in 1544 to travel to Italy and France, where he aligned himself with the School of Fountainebleau. When he returned to Antwerp, he popularized a style that emphasized the primacy of the figure set in complex poses, as well as discrepancies in scale between the figures and between the figures and their setting. His style is essentially subjective, based on an ideal of elegant artifice.
The story, taken from the Apocrypha, tells how a heroine's innocence and virtue triumph over villainy. Susanna, a married woman, is secretly desired by two elders of the community who plot to seduce her. She is shown dispatching her maids before beginning her bath; the elders lie in wait. Later she is falsely accused of adultery by the men, whose advances she refused, and is found guilty by a court and condemned to death. Her innocence is proven by the young prophet Daniel.

Jazzy Vegetarian: Lively Vegan Cuisine That's Easy and Delicious
Review by Alisa Fleming

Click here to read full article
I like the style of Jazzy Vegetarian, which has a simple, laid-back flow. The author, Laura Theodore, incorporates her whimsical approach as a jazz singer to create an inviting cookbook that is unintimidating to say the least. Though I love the simplicity of her recipes as someone who has been cooking and baking dairy-free for a while, I think this is a fabulous cookbook for beginners and newbies to vegan cuisine. Laura includes a full range of recipes (breakfast, appetizers, entrees, desserts, etc.), and for the most part they use everyday foods and have relatively short ingredient lists.
...Quick and easy recipes, now that is music to my ears. In her new cookbook, Jazzy Vegetarian, Laura Theodore takes a step back from the elaborate and sometimes quite strange dishes that vegan chefs are striving to create. Her focus is simple, flavorful cuisine that you can enjoy every day.
Though Laura offers the typical array of recipes in her cookbook, I found myself drawn most to the pastas. The ingredients that she uses in her pastas are ones that I almost always have on hand, and she doesn't shy away from flavor, using gentle spices, fresh herbs, you name it. You can see my version of her Sun-Dried Tomato and Broccoli Penne (which we loved) in the Pasta Recipes Section here on Go Dairy Free.
Here is a sampling of some of the other recipes that I found inviting:
Ginger & Maple Iced Tea
Chocolate Ganache Pudding
Mashed Carrots and Potatoes with Rosemary
Caramelized Balsamic Artichokes
Perfect Party Portobellos
Quick Lasagna Rolls
Arugula & Walnut Pesto Pasta
Nori Lunch Rolls
Savory Sweet Potato Soup
Bountiful Breakfast Bread
Luscious Little Carrot Muffins
Breakfast Rice with Sweet Spices
Other notes:
* This is a hardback cookbook with pictures for most of the recipes, but what I liked best were the "how to" photos, demonstrating techniques.
* This is a cookbook first and foremost. There is a brief introduction that includes ingredient information and some basics on a plant-based diet, followed by a good selection of menu suggestions using the recipes, but then she jumps right into the recipes.
* Even though the title states "Vegetarian" this is an all-vegan and dairy-free cookbook that I think of as a good resource for anyone seeking simple dairy-free and lactose-free recipes.

Helping you achieve your New Year's resolution to eat healthier:
COOKBOOK REVIEW: By Betsy Hays, January 2012
Before the holiday food excesses are conveniently forgotten, before the year gallops away from us and before everyone's eyes glaze over at that all-to-familiar goal of eating "healthier", let me entice you with another, more appetizing motivation for incorporating healthy plant-based food into your cuisine. It's delicious (and this book makes it easy)!
As a radio and public television host, Bloomingdale resident and award-winning jazz singer and songwriter Laura Theodore has been teaching, writing and lecturing on the benefits and joys of a plant-centered diet for over 15 years. Now, in her new book, Jazzy Vegetarian, Lively Vegan Cuisine That's Easy and Delicious (2011, Book Publishing Company), Theodore shares her knowledge and enthusiasm for vegan cooking in a format that impossible to resist. From the moving forward chronicling her journey from jazz singer to advocate for vegan food, to the helpful glossary of basic vegan ingredients, to the creative and mouth-watering recipes and photographs, Theodore presents simple, wholesome, attractive dishes that any host would be pleased to serve the most discerning diner.
I don't know about you, but for me, just the word "vegan" makes me think "deprivation", and, full disclosure, I'm not ready to give up my eggs and dairy products just yet. But Theodore's down-to-earth vegan recipes for hearty dishes and desserts—everything from lasagna rolls to upside-down apple cake—are inspiring me to broaden my culinary horizons. After listening to her radio shows and watching the NJ Network "Jazzy Vegetarian" public television show, I've concluded that Laura Theodore may just be the vegan Rachel Ray, with her infectious enthusiasm and skilled but accessible recipes that anyone can make and enjoy. For more information on vegan eating and cooking, visit www.jazzyvegetarian.com. The book is available through Amazon.com and other outlets.

By Holly Nichole, December 2011
I received the Jazzy Vegetarian cookbook and immediately flipped through the pages looking for a recipe to try. All of the recipes looked so good it was hard to choose, but I went for the Jazzy Black Bean Chili because I absolutely love a good, wholesome, hearty, filling meal! All of the ingredients in this recipe are things that are easily accessible at your regular grocery store and things that everyone has heard of. No crazy ingredients that one would have to find at a health food store or Google what it actually is. So, that right there was awesome! Making the meal was super easy and very straightforward. After tasting my first bite, I was sold! This is one of the best tasting chili's I have ever had! It is so hearty, filling and full of vegetables. My husband actually went back for, not seconds, but thirds! It has so much flavor and only uses 1/8th teaspoon of salt! Over all I would say I picked a winner and I'm super thankful to have this cookbook because I will definitely be working this into my weekly or biweekly meal planning!
With the HUGE sweet tooth that I have, I also decided to go ahead and make a dessert as well. I am a chocoholic so naturally I picked the Pots de Crème recipe, which is basically a chocolate mousse. This is a super easy recipe to make with only 4 ingredients but you do have to make it ahead of time because it has to refrigerate for 4-24 hours. I will say that after having this dessert it is absolutely amazing! It is so smooth and light and tastes so delicious! It would be an awesome recipe to double, triple, or even quadruple, if you were having a dinner party and you wanted to make something fancy without taking too much time or effort. It is fast to throw together and pop in the fridge while you move along to something else. This would even be something you could serve in wine or martini glasses to get that extra fancy look when serving!
Flipping through the rest of the recipes, all of them have ingredients that almost everyone has heard of and used before and the recipes are written very well. The author, Laura Theodore, even has menu plans towards the front of the book so you can put together full course meals that complement each other. She also has ingredient information and tips as well. Overall, this is a great cookbook for a vegan or vegetarian to incorporate into their meal planning as the recipes are easy and delicious! Makes you just wanna grab a glass of vino and play some jazz music while your cooking and enjoying a delicious meal!
Laura Theodore is The Jazzy Vegetarian and she will help you jazz up your plant-based {vegan} dinner!
JAZZ UP YOUR DINNER WITH THE JAZZY VEGETARIAN!I loved the recipes in this book. They're simple, but really bring fresh thought to many dishes. They use ingredients most people can find in their grocery store. Although the name of the book is The Jazzy Vegetarian, all of the recipes are vegan. If you've always wanted to try artichokes but have never been brave enough too, this book will definitely arm you with the knowledge you need. Laura gives step by step instructions along with pictures on how to prepare artichokes. I'm definitely trying them when they're in season again! She also gives you several ways to prepare them.Want to add more vegetables to your diet? The Jazzy Vegetarian cookbook will make it easy! Laura Theodore is a jazz singer turned vegan cook and cooking show host. She truly loves a plant-based diet, and it shows throughout the book. It starts with tons of helpful hints – ingredients glossary, seasoning tips, growing and storing fresh herbs, and even a table of equivalent measures. She also gives menu planning tips and even has several menu plans, complete with a jazzy music pick!There are a lot of great photos throughout the book. She reminded me of ingredients I love, that haven't used lately, like wheat germ. Laura also uses regular ingredients like arugula in new ways that you probably haven't tried before.The Quick Penne with Broccoli and Sun-Dried Tomatoes was the perfect meal for a busy weekday. Little Miss was able to help me prepare it, which is always good. The servings are extremely generous – the recipes I tried made a lot more servings for me than what the recipe said.The Barbecue Tempeh Cutlets was another really easy recipe I tried. It makes a great sandwich! Additionally, most of the time for this recipe is spent cooking it in the oven, so once you get it in the pan you can really just forget about it.You can buy The Jazzy Vegetarian from Book Publishing Company. I received a copy for review purposes. All opinions expressed are my own.____________________________________________

Jazzy Vegetarian vegan cookbook
While my family and I aren't vegetarians, we do eat a number of vegetarian meals throughout the week to keep our food budget under control. Many vegetarian meals also encourage healthy eating habits. They tend to be high in whole grains, vegetables and low in fat. I like to try to eat healthy when I can and vegetarian meals often fit in perfectly with my goals. Because we aren't strict vegetarians, we don't have a lot of the ingredients that many vegetarian recipes call for. When I look for a vegan cookbook, I like to be able to make the dishes without buying a bunch of ingredients that we don't normally use.
The Jazzy Vegetarian is lively vegan cuisine that's easy and delicious. This vegan cookbook begins with a foreword that explains why dietary change is important to improve your health. A whole food, plant based diet can help people eat healthier. Laura Theodore is the host of a public television show titled the Jazzy Vegetarian as well as the author of this cookbook. She explains how she went from being a jazz singer to promoting vegan food. She also explains the basics of the vegan diet including a handy glossary of ingredients. She encourages organic eating to prevent the toxic burden that non-organic growing methods can expose us to. The book has a section on herbs, an equivalents chart, and a chapter on planning tempting meals along with ready made menu plans.
The recipes are broken down into Bountiful Breakfasts & Smoothies, Scrumptious Muffins & Quick Breads, Appetizing Starters & Snacks, Satisfying Soups & Sandwiches, Sassy Salads, Perfect Pasta, Marvelous Main Dishes, and Decadent Desserts & Beverages. The recipes include a brief introduction, detailed ingredients list that and easy to follow directions. Many of the recipes include foods you should commonly have around the house. While some do call for things like non-dairy milk or tofu, most of them have ingredients that will be familiar to anyone – vegetarian or not. There are tried and true favorites your family may already enjoy like Quick Lasagna Rolls and some new tastes to introduce them to like Roasted Asparagus with Garlic and Tomatoes.
If you'd like to introduce your family to a few vegan meals while still serving them foods that they enjoy, the Jazzy Vegetarianvegan cookbook is a great introduction. We tried the Awesome Oatmeal and it was delicious!

|Max capacity
Maximum capacity tends to be the electric vehicle industry's choice for reporting the maximum amount of energy that can be stored in a vehicle's power pack.
About kWh : Where gasoline vehicles use gallons, electric vehicles frequently use kilowatt hours (kWh) to measure the total possible 'fuel' or energy storage capacity.
The Formula:
|6.5 kWh
|Nominal capacity
Nominal capacity is the most accurate measure of the amount of usable energy that can be stored in a vehicle's power pack. It differs from maximum capacity because it is calculated using an average voltage that is more often 'the norm' rather than a maximum which is rarely seen.

|Equivalent fuel economy (city)
Electric vehicle fuel economy is measured in Miles Per Gallon equivalent (MPGe) which indicates, via an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prescribed formula, how far an electric vehicle can go using the same amount of energy as is contained in one gallon of gasoline. Electric vehicles are much more efficient than their internal combustion engine (ICE) counterparts. An electric vehicle powertrain can turn above 90% of the energy supplied to it into usable motive power. An ICE powertrain can only turn about 25-30% of its supplied energy into motive power. The result is that an electric vehicle powertrain can operate at over three times the efficiency of its ICE counterparts.
The Formula:
Equivalent Fuel Economy, Highway = (Highway range) / (Power Pack nominal capacity) x 33.7 (EPA kWh per gallon of gasoline)
|417 MPGe (0.56 l/100 km)
|Typical cost to recharge
This indicates the average cost to recharge a fully drained power pack. More often, riders will be charging a partially drained power pack and will have a lower cost of recharge. The actual cost of recharging will always be dictated by the amount of charge put into the power pack and the cost of electricity flowing from the particular outlet.

|The Images series consists primarily of images derived from stereodrome (Taxiphote) negatives: the negatives themselves; black-and-white glass slides; and prints in various sizes. Other materials include a film; miscellaneous snapshots and studio portraits; and four photograph albums. The principal subjects are horses and RSC's silver and porcelain collections.
|English, French
Scope and Contents of the Collection
The materials in the Images series include 273 photographic negatives, 275 photographic prints, 250 black-and-white glass slides for the stereodrome, four photo albums documenting collections, and a movie of Never Say Die winning the Epsom Derby. A stereodrome viewer is included in the Realia series.
The stereographic materials consist of 250 negatives, 250 slides made from them, and 204 single-view prints in various sizes made from the negatives. Slides measure 4 3/16 x 1 11/16 inches or 45mm x 107 mm. These slides are stereo transparencies in the French Taxiphote format, rarely found outside Europe. Almost all of these images show horses owned or considered for ownership by RSC. Some identified as taken at Saratoga include such famous stallions as Man O'War and War Admiral; others are identified as taken in Canada. Most locations are unknown, but because many of the horses are identified by name and are known to have belonged to RSC, they were probably taken in Kentucky and Virginia. Most of these pictures show full-body profiles of a single horse with a groom; some show mares and their foals. A few of these pictures show unidentified people.
Four photograph albums document the Clarks' collection of silver and porcelain. One album (10½ x 12 x 1¼ inches) documenting a silver collection is missing a large proportion of its photographs, which might have been moved to a second album (12½ x 12½ x 4½ inches), also documenting silver. A third album (13 x 12 x 4 inches) documenting silver is identified on the spine as "Plate." The fourth album (12½ x 12½ x 3 inches) is filled with photographs of the Clarks' collection of porcelain.
Of the approximately 100 remaining items, 30 are passport or carte d'identite photos of RSC and Francine; ten are of the interior of RSC's mother's apartment on 89th St. in Manhattan; four are of Williams College; three are of RSC and an unidentified woman on horseback in Arizona; five were taken in the Cooperstown area; seven are removed from a letter from Robert H. Lewis and seem to document a picnic; and 14 others, also removed from correspondence, document racetracks, houses, and horses. There are six large, matted prints of two portraits of the horse Galatea. Five items are x-rays either of RSC's cranium or of Francine's teeth. The remaining items consist of snapshots and studio portraits, mostly unidentified.
Biographical Note
Born in 1877, Robert Sterling Clark, along with his three brothers, was heir to the Singer sewing machine fortune. Their father, Alfred Corning Clark, was the son of Edward Corning Clark, Isaac Singer's business partner. RSC attended Yale University and graduated in 1899 with a degree in engineering. He joined the army and his service during the Boxer Rebellion earned him the commission of first lieutenant. In 1908, RSC undertook an expedition to the Shaanxi and Gansu provinces in a remote area of northern China. He intended to carry out ethnographic and zoological research, as well as conduct surveys and create maps. His partner in this undertaking was Arthur de Carle Sowerby. Sowerby, in addition to being a naturalist, explorer, artist and editor, collected specimens for the British Museum and other museums of natural history in the United States and China. The expedition came to an abrupt end when Hazrat Ali, their translator and surveyor, was murdered.
Shortly thereafter, RSC moved to Paris. In 1909 he inherited various pieces of art from his family and these pieces became the foundation of the collection he was to build over the ensuing decades. He made his first purchases in 1912 and was initially attracted primarily to Dutch, Flemish and Italian old masters. Soon, his interests expanded to include silver, prints and drawings, rare books, and more contemporary artists such as Renoir, Degas, Sargent and Homer.
During this time RSC met Francine Clary. Formerly an actress with the Comedie Francaise, Francine was the mother of a daughter, Viviane Modzelewska. Francine and RSC began seeing one another in 1910, but didn't marry until 1919. Their relationship was a source of tension with RSC's family and eventually led to a rift between him and his brother, Stephen. Stephen, the youngest of the Clark brothers, had shouldered the daily administration of the family's fortunes. RSC felt that he was at a disadvantage because of the way the Singer trusts were constructed. Should something befall RSC, the money would pass back into the Clark family rather than to Francine and her daughter. When he was unable to resolve the issue within the family, he and Stephen had a falling out that would never be mended and RSC sued unsuccessfully in court to break up the trusts.
RSC and Francine were partners in assembling the collections that would eventually be housed at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, visiting galleries and dealers together. Another keen interest was horse breeding. RSC owned large operations that bred, raised and trained racehorses, first in Belgium and then in Virginia. In 1951, his horse, Never Say Die, won the Epsom Derby, the first American-bred horse ever to do so.
After considering various options for the eventual disposition of their artworks and objects, including donation to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and founding a museum in New York City, RSC and Francine decided to locate their collections in Williamstown, Massachusetts. Beginning in 1950 and continuing through RSC's death late in 1956, their lives were focused on building the Institute, both physically and administratively.

Acquisition Information
The glass slides and many of the photographs were accessioned from the Director's vault. Photos found among the correspondence were removed, cross-referenced, and placed in the Images series. Other black-and-white photographs and negatives were found among materials in the former office of David Brooke.
Processing Information
Items in the Images series were rehoused and arranged between December 2006 and April 2007 by Anne Just and Alex Grimley, archives interns. Items are stored in archival boxes and are primarily grouped by size, as original order is unclear due to extensive handling before they were accessioned into the archives. Black-and-white stereographic glass slides are arranged in archival boxes in the order in which they were found. Each slide is housed in a wrapper made of archival paper. Three of four photograph albums have been disbound and are stored in archival boxes, with leaves separated by buffered tissue. Their bindings, which were already in deteriorating condition, were too tight to allow for insertion of buffered tissue in place. The fourth album was in good condition with room for buffered tissue insertions between photographs and so was left undisturbed

Manchester United FC made their move to the top of the standings in England on a weekend that featured a first loss in 50 Serie A games for leaders Juventus. Paris Saint-Germain FC also suffered a first defeat this term in France, while Club Atlético de Madrid failed to keep pace with FC Barcelona in Spain and FC Bayern München moved further clear in the Bundesliga. UEFA.com recaps the action.
Manchester United enjoyed the weekend more than most as they eased to a 2-1 win against Arsenal FC to hit the Premier League summit early on Saturday afternoon – a position they maintained when Chelsea FC could only draw 1-1 at Swansea City AFC. "It was a special day; it was quite a game," said United forward Robin van Persie, who registered against his old side in just the third minute. "We had a few chances, we should have scored two or three more, but in the end we're happy with the three points." There was more delight for the Red Devils when champions Manchester City FC were held 0-0 at West Ham United FC, while fourth-placed Everton FC drew 2-2 at Fulham FC.
Barcelona extended their Liga lead courtesy of a 3-1 defeat of RC Celta de Vigo in which full-back Adriano scored and suffered an adductor tear that will keep him out for around three weeks. The win was Barcelona's ninth in ten league outings and took them three points clear of Atlético, who succumbed 2-0 at Valencia CF, with Real Madrid CF another five points back following their 4-0 dismantling of Real Zaragoza. José Mourinho celebrated his 100th victory as Madrid coach in the game and afterwards said: "I can barely believe that I've reached 100 victories. There were a lot of times when I applauded Zaragoza. We were tight in defence but not up front." As for Málaga CF in fourth, they lost 2-1 to Rayo Vallecano de Madrid.
FC Internazionale Milano finally brought Juventus' 49-game unbeaten Serie A run to an end as two goals from Diego Milito helped the Nerazzurri close the gap at the top to a single point. Arturo Vidal scored with less than 20 seconds gone, but that was as good as it got for Juve as Milito's double and Rodrigo Palacio's late strike engineered a 3-1 win. "This can be seen as the start of the road to the Scudetto," said Inter midfielder Esteban Cambiasso. "We don't know how long that road will be but we are determined to reach our final objective." SSC Napoli failed to take advantage of the leaders' loss, being held 1-1 by Torino FC, while S.S. Lazio were displaced in fourth by ACF Fiorentina after suffering a 4-0 loss at the hands of Calcio Catania.
After their perfect start to the season came to an end with defeat last weekend, Bayern rediscovered winning ways as Bastian Schweinsteiger, Thomas Müller and Toni Kroos earned a 3-0 win at Hamburger SV. The victory stretched their lead at the top to seven points over second-placed FC Schalke 04 after Sven Schipplock's added-time goal condemned Huub Stevens' men to a 3-2 loss at TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. "It is very exasperating," said Schalke's Dutch coach. "If you don't take your opportunities, you get punished. That is football, unfortunately." Meanwhile, third-placed Eintracht Frankfurt and defending champions Borussia Dortmund both drew to fall further off the pace. "It is obviously good for us when we win and our main rivals drop points," said Bayern's Kroos.
It is tight at the top in France after Paris Saint-Germain experienced their first Ligue 1 reverse this term on Saturday, Zlatan Ibrahimović seeing red in a 2-1 home loss to AS Saint-Étienne. "Our attitude was not good," explained PSG coach Carlo Ancelotti afterwards. "It's maybe a good lesson for us for the future, so that we can go into games differently than we did tonight." The capital club now find themselves level with Olympique de Marseille, who returned to winning ways by triumphing 2-0 at AC Ajaccio, and one point ahead of Olympique Lyonnais following their 5-2 handling of SC Bastia. Toulouse FC had the chance to climb alongside PSG and OM but slipped to a 1-0 loss at FC Girondins de Bordeaux.
Silverware was settled in Sweden as the final day of the campaign ended with IF Elfsborg claiming their sixth crown despite a 1-1 draw with Åtvidabergs FF, closest rivals Malmö FF losing 2-0 at AIK. There was trophy joy for FC Daugava Daugavpils too as they clinched their maiden Latvian title, while Derry City FC lifted the Irish FAI Cup in Dublin. In Belgium, meanwhile, SV Zulte Waregem triumphed 1-0 at Club Brugge KV to remain top alongside RSC Anderlecht, and the big game in Russia produced a 3-1 home success for FC Anji Makhachkala against derby rivals FC Terek Grozny – though Anji still trail pacesetters PFC CSKA Moskva by a point. FC Shakhtar Donetsk made it 14 wins from 14 games this term as they saw off FC Metalurh Zaporizhya 2-0, and AFC Ajax are ten points shy of leaders FC Twente in the Eredivisie following a 2-0 home loss to Vitesse.

What Should an In-N-Out Virgin Order?
What do you remember about your first time? Did it sufficiently rock your world? Was it all fireworks and dancing unicorns and everything you dreamed it would be? What would you go back and change if you could? What smooth moves that you know now do you wish you'd had at the ready back then? What advice would you give a wide-eyed, nervous newbie right before his impending date with destiny?
Yeah, I'm pretty nervous about my first time at In-N-Out.
Wait, what did you think we were talking about???
I'll be heading to Texas for the Memorial Day Weekend, and in the past, that has meant a burger run to some obscure restaurant that I've read about in Hamburger America or seen on TV or found referenced in some weird online carnivore chatroom. Now that the burger barons of Baldwin Park have set up shop in the Lone Star State, I know exactly where I'm headed. But I don't know what I'm getting.
I mean, I have an idea. Thanks to Kenji's epic everything-on-the-secret-menu experiment, I think I have my maiden order gameplanned out. But it occurred to me that I also have legions of experienced veterans who can weigh in here. I know many of you think In-N-Out is waaaay overhyped. And many of you think we at Serious Eats give it waaaay too much love as it is. But face it, it is a Mount Rushmore-kind of hamburger institution, and I am a professional hamburger eater. So this is kind of a big deal. And I want to make sure that I don't royally screw up the only "first time" I'll ever get.
So, AHT Nation, what should an In-N-Out rookie order? Do I play it by the book, or go all Animal-Style with the not-so-secret menu? I look forward to your recommendations.
About the Author: Todd Brock lives the glamorous life of a stay-at-home freelance writer in the suburbs of Atlanta.

Sorry for disappearing. Let's just say too much money was spent and there was an eating out frenzy that's made my budget look like the dog chewed it.
So here I go with the basics – menu planning. Over and over again it proves itself to be invaluable!
Fall is the perfect time to pull out the slow cooker if you haven't used it in awhile. Take a look at a few of my favorites, and see if there are any you want to add to your menu plan this week.
I also recommend spinach salads for the week. Buying a large container of pre-washed baby spinach is a great investment. Not only does it keep longer than baby lettuce, when it's at the end you can saute it, add to pasta sauces and even sneak some on sandwiches to add extra fiber and vitamins.
Monday: Minestrone and spinach salad (recipe near the bottom of linked post)
Tuesday: Refried Bean Tacos in blue corn shells with chorizo Spanish couscous over a romaine salad
Wednesday: Cauliflower curry potato curry with dahl over basmati brown rice and naan
Thursday: Grilled Pizza and salad
Friday: Pepper steak with steamed brown rice and wonton soup
Saturday: Chickenl-ess Parmigiano with vegan Cesar salad and garlic bread
Sunday: Clean out the fridge veggie soup made in the slow cooker and fresh bread recipe from sparkpeople

Electronic Arts (ERTS) stock dropped as much as 10 percent Monday after the company announced a bevy of bad news, including a sharp decline in the number of subscribers to a high-profile game, a disappointing forecast for its current financial quarter and a $40 million restructuring plan.
The Redwood City-based video-game maker said the number of active subscribers to its "Star Wars: The Old Republic" game fell by 400,000 to 1.3 million from the beginning of February to the end of March. On a conference call with analysts and investors, EA executives attributed the decline to a drop-off in "casual" players and those who were just testing it out. A growing portion of the total number of subscribers are actually paying to play the game, they said.
EA invested years and millions of dollars into the massively multiplayer online game, which some analysts expected to rival Activision's popular "World of Warcraft." Company officials said they will continue to invest in the game and plan to focus on growing its subscriber base.
"I understand that a lot of investors are very interested in 'Star Wars,' " said CEO John Riccitiello. But, he added, "The game's performance is very much in line with our original assumptions … and what we've been guiding folks to over the last couple of years."
The company's take on the news seemed to help appease anxious shareholders. In after-hours trading following the call, EA's stock was down 77 cents, or 5.1 percent, to $14.36. Before the call, the company's shares were off as much as $1.52, or 10 percent.
Meanwhile, the company said in a statement that it will lay off an unspecified number of workers as part of the restructuring plan, which it began Monday and expects to have largely complete by Sept. 30. The company plans to incur charges related to layoffs and the canceling of some of its intellectual property licenses.
In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, EA said the move was made "to align the company's cost structure with its ongoing digital transformation." In recent years, EA has been shifting its development efforts toward making mobile and social games, and also has bought companies to help with that effort.
EA spokesman Jeff Brown declined to say how many workers EA would lay off and whether any EA workers in the Bay Area would be affected. But Brown said the number of layoffs would be "small." EA plans to hire in other areas of its company, he said. On the call, Ken Barker, EA's interim chief financial officer, said the company expects to end its fiscal year with 9,700 employees, up from 9,200 now.
EA announced the restructuring despite posting financial results Monday that topped Wall Street's expectations.
In the company's fiscal fourth quarter, EA earned $400 million, or $1.20 a share, on sales of $1.37 billion. Those results topped the company's performance from a year earlier, when it earned $151 million, or 45 cents a share, on sales of $1.09 billion.
Excluding deferred revenue and certain costs, including stock options charges, EA would have earned $56 million, or 17 cents a share, on sales of $977 million.
On this basis, analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected the company to post a profit of 16 cents a share on $958.54 million in sales.
But the company offered mixed guidance for its new fiscal year.
For its first fiscal quarter, EA expects a pro forma loss of 40 to 45 cents a share on sales of $500 million. For the full year, the company expects a pro forma profit of $1.05 to $1.20 a share on sales of $4.3 billion.
Analysts had previously forecast a first-quarter loss of 33 cents a share on $577.91 million in sales. For the full year, analysts had expected EA to earn 84 cents a share on sales of $4.2 billion.
Earlier Monday, EA's stock closed regular trading up a penny to $15.13 a share.
