It's not the two-day marathon of the NFL Draft with weeks of continuous coverage leading up to it. And it's not the endless rounds of hunching and guessing that comes with the relative obscurity of the MLB Draft. But for basketball junkies, the NBA Draft is can't-miss TV -- a primetime show packed into a couple hours of hyped talent, a few personalities and some colorful suits.
It's not the two-day marathon of the NFL Draft with weeks of continuous coverage leading up to it. And it's not the endless rounds of hunching and guessing that comes with the relative obscurity of the MLB Draft. But for basketball junkies, the NBA Draft is can't-miss TV -- a primetime show packed into a couple hours of hyped talent, a few personalities and some colorful suits.
With no Isiah Thomas to kick around this season, it might not be quite as entertaining. But the possibility of the Knicks drafting Danilo Gallinari of Italy early in the first round could prompt something from New Yorkers.
Without further ado, here's one view of the first round with comments on the lottery picks.
1. Chicago Bulls
PG Derrick Rose, Memphis
Chris Paul and Deron Williams are two young point guards who have reminded everyone how one special lead guard can turn things around. Rose looks to be in their mold in terms of being a winner.
2. Miami Heat
PF Michael Beasley, Kansas State
Speculation is the Heat could trade away this pick. If they don't it, will be hard to pass up a player who looks poised to average 20 and 10 for a decade or so.
3. Minnesota Timberwolves
PG O.J. Mayo, Southern Cal
Mayo was the next big thing once LeBron James left high school on a direct path to the NBA. Mayo's ride has not been smooth, but now is his chance to live up to the hype that's accompanied him since middle school.
4. Seattle SuperSonics
PG Russell Westbrook, UCLA
The NBA's lame-duck franchise needs help in several areas, but point guard could be the most pressing need. Jerryd Bayless is the better scorer at guard, but the defensive-minded Westbrook could be the better fit here to play alongside Kevin Durant.
5. Memphis Grizzlies
PF Kevin Love, UCLA
After giving away their established big man to Los Angeles, the Grizz will look to L.A. for their future big man. Love is not the most athletic post player, but he's extremely talented and physically strong.
6. New York Knicks
PG Jerryd Bayless, Arizona
The high-scoring Bayless gets the keys to the high-octane Mike D'Antoni offense. Unfortunately, it likely will come with some of the same knuckleheads that made the Knicks a joke in recent seasons. Welcome to the NBA.
7. L.A. Clippers
SF Danilo Gallinari, Italy
The 6-foot-9 Gallinari has gotten some of the obligatory comparisons to Dirk Nowitzki. So far, no one's really found that second "Dirk," so we'll see. Many think Gallinari could end up in New York. Instead, it's L.A., but with the franchise with one playoff series win since leaving Buffalo in 1978. Welcome to America.
8. Milwaukee Bucks
SF Joe Alexander, West Virginia
His draft prospects blew through the roof in the Big East and NCAA tournaments. A tough, hard-nosed scorer, Alexander flourished under Bob Huggins. It isn't hard to imagine him doing the same for Scott Skiles.
9. Charlotte Bobcats
C-PF Kosta Koufos, Ohio State
Charlotte would love to see Love fall. He probably won't. They already have two athletic scorers on the wing in Jason Richardson and Gerald Wallace, so they still will want to go big here. That leaves Brook Lopez as the most well-regarded big man. But Lopez doesn't look like anything more than a role player long range. Koufos could be more than that, and coming off a recent workout for the Bobcats his amazing skill set is fresh in their minds.
10. New Jersey Nets
SG Eric Gordon, Indiana
A dangerous long-range shooter, Gordon pairs with point guard Devin Harris to give the Nets a solid backcourt down the road. If the Bobcats play it safe and take Lopez, Koufos could land here.
11. Indiana Pacers
PG D.J. Augustin, Texas
Augustin is an All-American with a strong offensive game, especially off the dribble. The Pacers need lots of help, and Augustin should be a good building block.
12. Sacramento Kings
PF Anthony Randolph, LSU
Regarded as one of the most gifted players in the draft, Randolph has lots of upside, especially at No. 12.
13. Portland Trail Blazers
SF Donte Greene, Syracuse
They already have a glut of young talent (Greg Oden, Brandon Roy, LeMarcus Aldridge) so dealing this pick is not out of the question. But if they keep it, they have the luxury of going best available. The 6-10 Greene is a skilled offensive player who eventually could slide in at small forward for an imposing front line with the 7-0 Oden and 6-11 Aldridge.
14. Golden State Warriors
PF Brook Lopez, Stanford
Some view Lopez going as high as No. 3, so the 7-footer easily could be gone by this point. But the Warriors would love to find Lopez and his 19.3 points and 8.2 points per game still available. Koufos or Greene also could land here.
15. Phoenix Suns
SG Brandon Rush, Kansas
16. Philadelphia 76ers
PF Marreese Speights, Florida
17. Toronto Raptors
C Robin Lopez, Stanford
18. Washington Wizards
PF Darrell Arthur, Kansas
19. Cleveland Cavaliers
C Roy Hibbert, Georgetown
20. Denver Nuggets
C Alexis Ajinca, France
21. New Jersey Nets
C DeAndre Jordan, Texas A&M
22. Orlando Magic
SG Courtney Lee, Western Kentucky
23. Utah Jazz
C JaVale McGee, Nevada
24. Seattle SuperSonics

Coca Cola doesn't change its logo and Michelin tires still has its "tire man," said Sandestin resident and businessman Jon Vice, who like many other South Walton residents, are wondering why the Beaches of South Walton's iconic red and white beach umbrella logo was ever done away with.
The umbrellas were eliminated from the TDC logo a few years ago under the Tourist Development Council's former administration, in an attempt to give the logo a fresh and updated new look.
The TDC's current executive director, Jim Bagby, says the umbrellas are being looked at as a possibility to bring back again to represent our beautiful beaches.
The announcement leaves some scratching their heads in wonderment, yet delighted.
"I like the three umbrella logo and would certainly embrace it being used again," said Vice.
The iconic and easily recognizable three red and white beach umbrellas were South Walton's logo for more than 20 years, adopted after the TDC was established and under Malcolm Patterson's tenure as the TDC's first executive director.
"It never made any sense to do away with it to begin with," said Patterson. "Having a visual as part of your logo is sensory reinforcement and easier to remember. Any time you have something you want remembered you do so by using more than one sensory perception. When they removed the umbrellas they removed one of multiple sensory receptors. That logo was developed on my tenure. But just before I retired we spent big bucks on a marketing study and among the recommendations were to keep the logo as it was because it already had brand identity, and build on what already existed (When they were done away with).�
�My question was always, where was the council in this decision and why would they permit the change when a very competent ad agency had just advised to continue its use and build on the brand identity already established?� he added. �During my tenure, such decisions had to be filtered through the Council and they never would have endorsed such a change. If it were reestablished, I think it would have instant recall in many of the target areas."
Kriss Titus succeeded Patterson as TDC executive director.
"I am thrilled the TDC is considering bringing back the iconic Beaches of South Walton logo with the three red umbrellas," said Titus. "This logo was created when the TDC was first put in place in 1988. When I came on board at TDC in 1999 it was our mission not to change the logo but to give it an updated look and make it more readable and a better application to be used in our advertising campaigns, website and collateral materials.�
�So, the idea of the iconic Beaches of South Walton and the three umbrellas logo was born with the development of the TDC. I think change is good and possibly the change in the name and look of the new logo was researched and considered the best way to market Beaches but when you have a logo with some 25-plus years of longevity, before a change is made you may want to consider the equity of the brand message before you move forward with something so different. Sometimes it's the equity of a brand that gives so much value to a destination,� Titus told The Sun.
The umbrellas were not only used in the TDC's print advertisements, but also on other items, which many still have.
"I am so for bringing the umbrellas back," said long-time local artist Donna Burgess. "I still have towels, a bag, and a car tag with the umbrellas on them. It's iconic."
Long-time local Allison Yii, agrees.
"Yay! The three-umbrella logo was so much stronger, branding wise. The three umbrellas were much more appealing to a wider audience. They were fun, eye-catching, yet classic," she said.
Former Walton County Citizen Services Director Ken Little said he also is all for bringing back the three umbrella logo.
"It was iconic, easily understood, unique, and 'ours.' I still have the car tags that we proudly sported for years. I sort of understand the marketing spin of rebranding after the 2010 oil spill, but I think everybody is past that now. Clearly, they are still coming, so let�s be who we are," he said.
Former Walton Chamber of Commerce Director Pam Tedesco said she loved that brand for the Beaches of South Walton and would welcome its return.
Valerie Lofton said she loves the idea of the umbrellas, but, feels one better would be to add sea turtles.
"Maybe the new logo could have a sea turtle on the umbrellas," she said.
Blue Mountain Beach resident Richard Fowlkes said he always liked the beach umbrellas and hated to see them go away.
"I have never been crazy about the new logo," he said. "On the other hand, what a waste of resources to go from one to the other and back again. Still, I don�t think a desire to not go back and forth is a good reason to stick with something that leaves the target audience flat. I�m in favor of those umbrellas."
With all its support, however, Bagby said a final decision has not been made.
"There are five options now on the table and the return to the three red-and-white striped beach umbrellas is one," he said.
Another option is a single, more modern-looking umbrella. A third is a picture of the coastline. A fourth is a design he describes a sun/wave, and a fifth is a picture of the back of an Adirondack chair.
"Our focus groups see it (three striped umbrellas) as a step back," said Bagby, who said the options will be taken back to marketing at the end of May.

2009 Tour Championship: East Lake Is Waterlogged
Contributed by GCM NewsWeekly
Special to ARMCHAIR GOLF
DESPITE A COOL, RAINY summer in Atlanta, East Lake Golf Club's bermudagrass greens should still play much firmer than the bentgrass greens at the first three FedEx Cup Playoffs events this year, according to course superintendent Ralph Kepple, who has prepped East Lake for this week's season-ending Tour Championship.
"The greens won't be as firm as last year," Kepple said, "partly because it's been so wet this summer and partly because they are a year older and therefore have a small layer of thatch under them now.
"The players are going to come through those first three events on greens that receive shots pretty well, and then they're going to come here and these greens are going to be pretty firm."
Kepple, who is in his 18th year as superintendent at East Lake, says the rough will be a healthy stand of bermudagrass, thanks in large part to more than nine inches of rain received in August. While the rough will be cut at 2 1/4 inches again as in the past, it will be much thicker this year.
No Major Changes
After completing a year-long renovation last year that was highlighted by replacing the bentgrass greens with bermudagrass prior to the Tour Championship, there have been no major changes made to East Lake this year.
Kepple switched to MiniVerde, an ultradwarf bermudagrass, because it is better suited for Georgia's hot summers. It provides an excellent putting surface, and Kepple expects the greens to measure 12 feet on the Stimpmeter for the championship.
Nearby turfgrass students, area superintendents and assistant superintendents, as well as various vendors from around the region, will make up a group of 72 volunteers aiding Kepple's staff of 27 during the tournament this week

Right now I'm thinking the Tour ought to be scrambling to find another venue. The weather forecast in this area for the next 7 days is more of the same.
- The Armchair Golfer said...
This last playoff event could definitely be a bit like the water-filled adventure at this year's U.S. Open.
We have had a lot of rain this past week, but not ALL areas got "15 inches" of rain. Those areas are west and northeast of town. (I dumped 11" out of the rain gauge since Thursday)
East Lake drains very well, and they have Sub-air under all the greens, so with a couple of days of no rain, the course will be fine, though the greens probably won't run the 12.5 they were hoping for.
The course is still closed, though the players might be able to get out on the range later today if this letup continues. (It hasn't rained in almost 8 hours !)
Unfortunately, we may get isolated storms popping up for the next several days.
- Charles Boyer said...
That would be a fitting end to the season, really.
Now the question becomes: will we see a surprise winner that no one picked coming in? That would, of course, happen after one of the favorites faltered and let the tournament (and the FedEx Cup) slip away.
- Sexy LPGA said...
That's just a horrible forecast and the weather could def play a factor in the tourny. The scattered showers make it so hard to predict , could just as easily get a day or so break and the course can recover some.
Just got back from East Lake. The place is gorgeous. Spoke with one of the chairmen and the biggest concern was getting the walkways cleaned up so the galleries wouldn't be walking on muddy paths.
Bunkers were mostly repaired, greens were soft but quick. Fairways were still a bit on the soggy side, but you had to do a little work to raise casual water.
The sun came out around noon. There were players on the range and heading out for practice rounds.
PLEASE - whoever decided to post that East Lake is waterlogged - do a little research before writing this sort of thing. Dougie Ferguson wrote a piece 2 years ago - FROM CHICAGO - declaring the greens completely dead and unplayable. This naturally sent the players into a lather...until they showed up and found out that some of the greens were damaged around the collars, but there was plenty of good grass to putt on.
Yes - we will probably see a few showers or even thunderstorms through the weekend, but those come in late in the day - and nothing like what we had on Sunday is expected.
ALL of Atlanta didn't get off as easily as East Lake. There are some badly flooded areas - some of which made it to the national news - and those geniuses declared that the entire city was as flooded as Six Flags Over Georgia - the amusement park that has 4" drains on concrete, so the water had nowhere to go.
- The Armchair Golfer said...
Thanks, Court. Great update. Appreciate the information.
As far as the "waterlogged" title, yesterday it was reported by Bloomberg golf correspondent Mike Buteau (who is in Atlanta) that East Lake was closed due to water issues. Buteau quoted a PGA Tour official as saying that East Lake had reached the "saturation point" and that "there's nowhere for the water to go." Saturated with water is a definition of waterlogged.
I'm glad the course and the grounds crew have responded in heroic fashion.
- Atlanta golf course said...
there is no good weather to play and i want to learn ... so is annoying all this rain
- Sexy LPGA said...
These grounds keepers and crews often do just amazing jobs getting everything in playing shape even in horrible conditions and they seldom get the credit they deserve. Another case of excellent behind the scene's work !

About our Campaign
All citizens need clean drinking water and quality sanitation. We ask the European Union to guarantee these human rights through the promotion of water supply and sanitation as essential public services for all. These rights must be implemented. Our aim is to collect one million signatures from all over Europe to make this happen.
The European Union should set binding targets for all Member States to achieve 100% coverage of water and sanitation services in Europe. We believe that the European Union should also make a bigger effort towards achieving universal access to water and sanitation outside the European Union. Millions of people are still deprived of these services.
Our goals:
- Guaranteed water and sanitation for all in Europe.
- No liberalisation of water services.
- Universal (Global) access to water and sanitation.
This campaign is a tool to commit the EU and Member States to implement the human right to water and sanitation. It is a tool to change the mind-set in the European Commission from a market-based approach with the focus on competition to a rights-based approach with the focus on public service. It aims to achieve universal (global) access to water and sanitation and to safeguard the limited public water resources for future generations.
What we want
Guaranteed water and sanitation services for all in the European Union.
We believe that the European Union must implement the human right to water insofar as water and sanitation services are subject to European law (as a service of general interest). The European Union must promote national implementation of this human right by setting binding targets for all Member States to achieve universal coverage.
Human Rights above market interests: No liberalisation of water services.
We want the EU to change their mind-set from its current focus on competition and completely market-based approach, to a public service attitude and a rights-based approach. Water is a limited natural resource and a public good fundamental for life and health. It is a 'natural' monopoly and must be kept out of internal market rules.
Global/Universal access to water and sanitation for all.
We believe that the EU should make a bigger effort for water and sanitation to be enjoyed universally. The EU must set targets and make the achievement of universal (global) access to water and sanitation part of its Development policy. By doing so the EU will actively promote that the right to water and sanitation can be enjoyed globally.
Our proposals to the European Commission to implement the human right to water and sanitation:
- To use the Human Right to Water and Sanitation in all communications on Water and/or Sanitation.
- To guarantee water (safe, clean and affordable) and sanitation services to all of the populations in EU Member States.
- To refrain from turning water services into commercial services by excluding water from internal market rules. This can be achieved by a commitment of the European Commission:
- Not to liberalise water and sanitation services.
- Not to include water and sanitation services in Trade Agreements such as CETA.
- To promote Public-Public Partnerships.
- To enshrine the "water is not a commodity" principle of the Water Framework Directive in all EU water and water-related policies.
- To define that protecting our water environment will prevail over commercial policies.
- To initiate support programmes for people that can not pay their bill with the aim to prevent disconnections of users.
- To ensure that private water companies operating water services provide complete transparency and openness regarding their contracts (no role for commercial confidentiality in this public service).
- To promote citizens' participation in accordance with the water framework directive.
- To increase access to water and sanitation worldwide, by making the achievement of universal access to water and sanitation part of EU development policy.
- To promote Public-public partnerships (Water Operator Partnerships) based on not-for-profit principles and solidarity between water operators and workers in different countries.
- To enshrine into law that control over water and water resources must remain in public hands.
- To support public water companies in the EU and other countries that lack the capital to invest in the extension of Water and Sanitation services to the poor.
- To promote water operators to dedicate a percentage of their annual turnover for water operator partnerships in developing countries. (like in The Netherlands and in France).
- To promote a European benchmarking system to raise quality public water services.
- To design a governance code for water companies in the EU-27.

Why Do I Receive Dav.IFilterComp.Cl.dll Error?
Dynamic Link Libraries (also called as DLL) are similar to EXE files, though they are not directly executable. A DLL is a library which contains code and data which can be used by many programs simultaneously. To reduce disk space and speed up the performance, not all DLL files are loaded with Windows. When a program needs a DLL, that file will be loaded and run.
For example, most computer programs needs to create the graphical interface which appears on the screen. So when they need to create the interface, they just call on a DLL for that functionality rather than having to contain the code in the program. So, when Dav.IFilterComp.Cl.dll file is not correctly loaded and run, the program and the Windows will pop up error messages.

Want to get thrown out of an Apple retail store? Good luck.
Comedian Mark Malkoff noticed the customers at the Apple Stores can get away with everything, from having dance parties, to bringing in pets. So he set out to see what might be going "too far."
Malkoff first had a pizza delivered to him in the store, ate it, and even offered it to the employees. That didn't get him thrown out.
He then had a romantic date with his wife in the store, complete with live music. Still, no one tossed him out.

Next he dressed as Darth Vader and asked for help with his broken iPhone. The Apple Geniuses not only helped with his problem, they took photos of themselves with Sith Lord.
Finally, Malkoff showed up with a rather unruly goat. Was that the straw that broke the came's back?

Liberty leads the overall series, 14-3-3. The two squads have met during each of the past seven seasons, with the Flames holding a 5-0-2 mark in those matches. Last season, the Flames defeated the Lancers, 3-0, in Farmville, Va., on Sept. 1, 2012. Current Liberty defender Sam Duininck and midfielder Juan Nino scored goals in the contest.
A Look at Longwood The Longwood Lancers will enter Tuesday night's Big South matchup, fresh off a 2-1 win over Winthrop, this past Saturday. The Lancers scored with 29 seconds remaining to claim the victory.

Another massive year predicted for eCommerce
The latest Forrester report on on-line shopping indicates no sign of this market reaching maturity. The US is predicted to grow by over 20% this year vs toal retail growth of 3%.
In Europe this growth will be even faster.
Forrester say: "In the coming five years, the number of Europeans shopping online will grow from 100 million to 174 million. Their average yearly Net retail spending will grow from around €1,000 to €1,500, as UK Net consumers outspend even their US counterparts online. Overall, this will cause European eCommerce to surge to €263 billion in 2011, with travel, clothes, groceries, and consumer electronics all above the €10 billion per year mark."
The Sunday Times ran a cover article this past weekend which featured 2 companies in our portfolio. LoveFilm group has helped to create a new category of on-line spend in Europe in the DVD rental space and Lysander Meath-Baker of Digivate had some intelligent things to say about ways in which on-line shops will need to evolve to keep customers interested. He points to the use of video and virtual reality in eCommerce as some of the emerging techniques.

Orders from 78 countries!
Is the goal to build a global business an over-ambitious one? Not in the world of the web!
Moo launched their mini-cards with Flickr on September 19th. After shipping many thousands of orders - free and paid for - to 78 countries, Moo is still small, but Global.
Stewart Butterfield, founder, CEO of Flickr writes:
FlickrBlog: "Congratulations are in order to Moo for shipping all 10,000 of the free promo card orders! That's a lot of envelopes to stuff in a very short time — I guess it was fairly predictable, but still pretty impressive that 10,000 Flickr members ordered their free ten-pack of cards in the first week (the promotion is now, sadly, over).
As for the cards themselves, I can't say it better than Cory Doctorow did on BoingBoing:
It's hard to convey just how cool-ass these cards are. They feel like a fetish object, the thick card and soft laminate finish create a great hand-feel, and they're visually stunning — playful and intensely personal.
Together with the paid 100-pack orders, that's hundreds of thousands of cards they've shipped a mere two weeks after opening their doors (we're told the cards went out to 78 countries!). They've also got a lot of happy customers, and an extremely active group going (including tons of card shots in the pool). Congratulations, Moo team!"

an eCommerce Category Killer
The Cotswold Company have launched (in Beta) a new Chair Superstore - called Chairs and Wares.
To aid on-line shopping of relatively high value products, the site uses zoom technology extensively and offers a vast array of options of style, fabrics, leg shapes and colour.
The company has hooked up with a Chinese factory and is dis-intermediating a number of steps in the chain to achieve fantastic prices. Essentially achieving a "from factory
to consumer" supply chain.
Cotswold have all but halted their retail expansion and are focusing on their direct channels - catalogue and Web.
Good job, guys!

On April 18, 1942, 16 B-25 Mitchell bombers embarked on what was to be the first attack on the Japanese mainland by US forces during World War II; although the attack didn't result in a major strategic victory, the boost to US morale and the ensuing aftermath of the attack would put what became to be known as the Doolittle Raid into the history books. "Missions That Changed the World: The Doolittle Raid" was a program originally produced for the Military Channel and over the course, of four, 45-minute episodes takes viewers through history from the genesis of the raid to the ensuing legacy, including on-camera interviews with surviving members of the mission. Whether you're a history buff or not, the program is a remarkably well-paced and insightful offering at a solitary moment in history.
Narrated evenly by Gary Sinise, "The Doolittle Raid" is the quickest, three hours you'll spend viewing a non-fiction based program. The first episode, giving background on the bombers themselves as well as the buildup to the mission feels like the opening segment of most one-hour documentaries and before you know it, the series has progressed into the second episode introducing viewers to the man behind the mission, the late Jimmy Doolittle. Science and engineering aficionados will get a big kick out of the technical content of this episode, including how a sub-one dollar bomb sight was found to be preferable to the $10,000 top-of-the-line sight of the times. The final two episodes feel like one cohesive story, covering the actual raid itself and the aftermath, including the story of the 8 POWs from the mission and the post-mission legacy.
As a viewer who went into the series only knowing the vague details of the mission, the series does a tremendous job of giving one multiple perspectives without becoming too technical nor pandering with false drama. There is an air of reverence towards the men who courageously took on this mission and the series continually lets those who lived it tell their story when possible. "The Doolittle Raid" is a very fine piece of documentary series filmmaking; its not flashy by any means and sometimes one gets the feeling that the archival images being used are a tad repetitive, but at the end of the day, every man who played a part in the raid is presented as an equal and its refreshing to see the series not get sidetracked about making the focus solely on Doolittle himself. "The Doolittle Raid" does what a documentary should: appeal to a wide range of audiences while not sacrificing an ounce of integrity.
The 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer is well enough serviceable for the series' nature. Colors are on the warm side and a bit intense, while there's some mild artifacting. Detail is on the average side, although archival footage looks quite striking.
The Audio
The Dolby Digital English stereo audio track is clean and well balanced, pushing the thematic music to the background when appropriate and ensuring neither narration nor interview dialogue fight one another for the spotlight. English SDH subtitles are included.
The Extras
The bonus features include a timeline of Doolittle's life and a very engaging, extended interview with Edward Saylor, an Engineer Gunner on one of the planes. There's also a 12-page printed booklet providing some supplementary information.
Final Thoughts
The expert pacing and condensed informational content of "The Doolittle Raid" makes it a program worth viewing for all audiences. History buffs will easily want to add this to their collection as it shines well above any disposable one-hour program from The History Channel could hope to aspire to, while those merely interested in expanding their horizons will give this at minimum, a rent. Highly Recommended.

- World Athletics Championships
Farah cruises into 5,000m final
Mo Farah remains on course for a golden double at the World Athletics Championships after cruising through his 5,000m heat to qualify for Friday's final.
Farah showed no ill effects following his 10,000m triumph in Moscow, despite admitting that he had found Saturday's race harder than he expected.
But any thoughts that his efforts over the longer distance would curb his prospects in the 5,000m, where Farah is the defending champion, were soon forgotten as he hit the front in the final kilometre, easing off on the final bend once his qualification had been assured.
"That was alright," said Farah, who jogged over the line while chatting with American training partner Galen Rupp. "I just wanted to do as little work as possible, freshen my legs up and get ready for the final. I did that, so I've just got to recover now and get ready for Friday."
Farah finished just behind Rupp in fifth, posting a time of 13min 23.93sec, and later insisted the hardest thing was the 6am wake-up call for the race.
"We looked across and with the top five qualifying we knew were going to do that, so it was about saving as much energy as we could," Farah said.
"I just wanted to feel comfortable. I didn't want to have to sprint all out and tire myself out for Friday, so it was just about getting through. It's about the next step now."
Perry Shakes-Drayton put on another impressive display in the 400m hurdles semi-finals, winning the second heat in a time of 53.93sec. She will be joined in Thursday night's final by fellow Briton Eilidh Child, who ran 54.32 in the first heat to qualify.
British heptathlete Katarina Johnson-Thompson missed out on a medal after finishing fifth - placing second in the final event, the 800m.
She had moved herself within sight of the medals with a personal best in the long jump heading into the 800m.
Johnson-Thompson had to beat third-placed Dafne Schippers by 2.92sec and Antoinette Nana Djimou in fourth by 2.0sec, as well as stay within 0.41sec of Claudia Rath, behind her in sixth, to claim bronze.
However, Hanna Melnychenko claimed the gold medal, with Canada's Brianne Theisen-Eaton taking silver and Schippers snapping up bronze.
Johnson-Thompson's 6.56m leap moved her up to fourth in the standings before the penultimate event, but even another personal best of 40.86m in the javelin saw her slip to fifth.
Olympic high jump bronze medallist Robbie Grabarz made light work of qualifying for Thursday's final after comfortably clearing 2.29m.
Elsewhere, Yelena Isinbayeva took gold in the women's pole vault, clearing 4.89m to delight the home crowd.
The double Olympic champion had beaten America's Jennifer Suhr and Yarisley Silva, and with the pair out of the way Isinbayeva attempted to smash her world record of 5.06m. However, the Russian was unable to add further glory after three tries.
LaShawn Merritt meanwhile blew away world and Olympic champion Kirani James in the men's 400m, with the American romping to victory with James finishing down in seventh.

Editor's note: This letter is in response to a story in the June 29 edition of the Arizona Capitol Times: "Road Blocked: Future illegal immigration legislation murky after Supreme Court ruling."
The U.S. Supreme Court drew the line in what is and is not a state's role in immigration enforcement in both the Legal Arizona Workers Act (Employer Sanctions) and SB1070 opinions.
That some legislators don't see where those distinctions lie is not surprising. As Upton Sinclair said, "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends upon his not understanding it."
The simple and plain truth is that "attrition through enforcement" strategies have not only failed as public policy for years (e.g., job loss, economic damage, reputation damage, inability to attract labor, increased social service costs, etc.), they are now also unconstitutional.
We've tried it their way in different cities, counties and states, and it doesn't work. It is time to hang up the "enforcement first" strategy and deal with the problem holistically and sensibly, as we should have been doing all along. The Supreme Court said the problem needs to be addressed through Congress, nowhere else.
The question we should be asking Arizona's congressional delegation and candidates is, now that you know what doesn't work, what's your solution? We hope we get an answer soon and that it isn't more of the same. That would be a disservice to us all.
— Todd Landfried, executive director, Arizona Employers for Immigration Reform

From GENE LOGSDON
Something happened to me recently that I'm willing to bet is new to the annals of farming. All of us "country folk" know that carrying eggs in your pockets, especially in tight jeans, is not a good idea. Should you bend over, the eggs are very likely to break. But I was not thinking. We had just come home in early evening from two strenuous days on the road and I just wanted to go to bed for about two years. But being a country folk, I had farm animals to look after first. I had left enough feed and water in the coop so I could leave the hens penned up while we were gone to keep them safe from raccoons, mink, foxes, and various other dragons of the woods. Now, running on empty, I staggered zombie-like to the barn to let the hens out to roam a little before dark after two days of imprisonment.
I decided to gather the eggs too. Having been penned away from their favorite nesting sites in the barn, the hens had laid 14 eggs, 8 in the nest boxes and 6 in a corner on the floor. I did not spy the 6 on the floor until I was about the leave the coop, with four eggs in each hand. Usually I am wearing a jacket with ample pocket space for that many eggs but not now. Instead of being smart and leaving the 6 on the floor until I came back up later to close the hens in for the night, I decided to stick 6 of the 8 eggs in my hands in my jean pockets and pick up the other 6 on the floor. When I bent over, the eggs in the right pocket popped because, with my wallet also in residence, it was a tight fit all around.
My only thought was to try to get the cracked eggs out of the pocket before slimy yokes seeped down through the pocket lining, through pants leg, through underwear, rolling like a minor tsunami toward my ankles. In panic, I first emptied the eggs out of the left pocket to prevent further breakage and dropped them on the floor. Two of them broke in the process. Then, as I tried to fish the cracked ones out of the right pocket, they caved in completely and the yolks and whites soaked through my clothes.
For some reason, no doubt because I am a child of the money economy, my biggest distress was over my billfold. It was covered in yellow slime. I hurried over to the machine shed where I knew some rags were hanging, and commenced to clean up my proud symbol of capitalism. Then I tried to wipe the yokes and white stuff out of the pocket although by now much of it was all sliding lasciviously down my leg. The odd part of the whole affair was that I did not boil over with cursing and swearing. I was too tired even for that.
The penetrating power of egg goo is something to behold. Back at the house, I spent a half hour cleaning egg yolk out of the billfold and off of eight dollar bills and two twenties. Had I not done that, the paper money would have been stuck together forever. So I ask you: has anyone else ever had to clean egg yolk off his or her hard earned cash? I also had to painstakingly wipe off my driver's license, Medicare card, a credit card and several photos of very cute grandkids.
The good news is that egg yolk or white or a combination thereof seems to have a beneficial effect on leather. The outside of the billfold now shines like a new one. Maybe the next time I am stupid enough to put eggs in jeans pockets, I'll just let the goo slide on down my leg to give my shoes a good shine.

The TV- and Cinema-Spot "Aids ist ein Massenmörder" (Aids is an mass-murderer).
That's the pits. This spectacular campaign by the german agency das comitee was made for the world aids day 2009 and it speaks a very plain language.
The campaign starts on the 1st of December with the slogan "Aids ist ein Massenmörder" / Aids is an mass murderer. The center of this campaign is defined by the some of the worst mass murderer having sex.
This is very rad indeed but in times where aids is becoming a big part of our daily life and with people starting to be indifferent about the subject, campaigns like this one will surely raise more attention then a funny campaingn would do. It sure is very controversial, in every way, but also good work by the creatives of "das comitee agency". So make up your mind and share your opinion about this one.

A Toadally Cool Object In Exhibition Hall
Capitol Visitor Center Registrar Karin Johnston, takes an in depth look at one of her favorite artifacts currently on display in the Exhibition Hall exhibit, "Conflict and Compromise."
As the Capitol Visitor Center's Registrar, I'm not supposed to have favorites among the objects on display in Exhibition Hall. Nevertheless, there are some artifacts that are so much fun and so thought-provoking that they cannot be ignored. The toad box, which is currently on display as part of the "Conflict and Comprise" exhibition, is one of those objects.
For the Library of Congress' bicentennial in 2000, Members of Congress and their constituents collaborated with the Library in Local Legacies: Celebrating America's Roots, a project documenting American folklife and popular culture. Communities in every state worked with their senators and representatives to highlight unique local traditions and festivals.
Surely one of the most distinctive events chronicled in Local Legacies was the 2000 Toad Suck Daze celebration held in the towns of Toad Suck and Conway, Arkansas. First organized in 1982 in Toad Suck, the festival is now held annually in downtown Conway, Arkansas, during the first weekend in May. Events include music, arts and crafts, a variety of food, carnival rides, and, of course, the World Championship Toad Races.
For the World Championship Toad Races, visitors enter toads that they have brought from home or that were bred in the community for this purpose. To transport the entrants, they use toad boxes similar to the one on display in the Capitol Visitor Center's Exhibition Hall, which is from the 2000 Toad Suck Daze celebration. Each box displays the official toad racing rules on one side and on the other, the name of the toad and its owner.
The legend behind the name of the town of Toad Suck comes from a time when steamboats traveled the Arkansas River. When the water was not deep enough, the steamboats tied up where the Toad Suck Ferry Lock and Dam now spans the river near Conway. While the captains and crew waited for the water to rise they refreshed themselves at the local tavern. People living nearby said, "They suck on the bottle 'til they swell up like toads.'"
Be sure to check out this artifact, and all the others on display in Exhibition Hall on the lower level of the Capitol Visitor Center. It is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Saturday. No passes or reservations are needed to visit the displays. For more information, go to www.visitthecapitol.gov.

The mother of double-murderer and rapist Keith Luke donated his organs after his suicide in prison on May 10.
BROCKTON – If you were waiting for a life-saving transplant, would you accept the organs of a convicted killer and white supremacist?
Jenny Williams said she would.
Williams, a West Bridgewater mother of two, underwent kidney transplant surgery Friday at Tufts Medical Center and was listed in good condition Saturday.
She had been among 2,185 people on a wait list for a kidney in Massachusetts, according to the National Kidney Foundation.
Before her surgery, Williams endured dialysis three overnights each week. She said it wouldn't matter where the kidney came from – even if it were from someone known for committing evil acts and proclaiming hate.
"No matter how bad he is, he was important to somebody. He was somebody's kid. And yes, I would take it," Williams, 50, said. "I owe it to my family to take it."
She spoke after the Brockton mother of convicted double-murderer and rapist Keith Luke donated his organs after Luke committed suicide in prison on May 10.
Luke was kept on life support for two days after his suicide attempt so arrangements could be made to donate his organs, which were received by "several" recipients, said two authoritative sources. It was unclear Thursday which of Luke's organs were donated and how many transplant recipients received his organs.
Keith Luke, 28, a self-proclaimed white supremacist who once carved a swastika into his forehead, was convicted in May 2013 of killing two people and raping and shooting a third in a hate-filled rampage in Brockton in January 2009. All three victims were of Cape Verdean descent.
While a sensitive and emotional issue – and some might argue, a moral one – the donation of Luke's organs to help save others is more importantly a humanitarian issue, one local pastor said.
"In a way, I would consider it a victory to be able to take something that people would think is evil and make it into something that is good," said the Rev. R. Steven Warner, pastor of Brockton Assembly of God Church
Warner said he thinks that in extreme cases like Luke's, an organ recipient should be informed about the donor's background, so they can decide if they want the organs.
"If you're building a house over Chernobyl, you've got a right to know what happened there," Warner said, referring to the catastrophic nuclear accident in 1986 in Ukraine.
But spiritually speaking, Warner also doesn't think organs coming from an "evil" killer would spread that evil into an organ recipient.
"I do not think that they would," he said.
There are 122,729 people awaiting organ transplants nationwide, of which 100,596 are awaiting a kidney donor, according to the United Network for Organ Sharing.
It is unknown how many inmates have donated their organs nationally. The United Network for Organ Sharing does not collect any social information on donors or recipients, said spokeswoman Anne Paschke.
Nationally, thousands of people die every year awaiting an organ transplant, Paschke said.
"On average, 79 people are transplanted every day in this country. But another 17 to 18 die waiting," Paschke said. "Just one person signing up on their state registry could save or enhance the lives of 50 people through organ, eye and tissue donation."
The issue of organ donations from prisoners has received support from members of the medical community who stress the need for organ donors.
In a 2012 manuscript published by the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Shu S. Lin noted a "seemingly insurmountable shortage of donor organs" and his rationale for allowing death row inmates, specifically, to donate their organs.
"This is obviously a very sensitive issue because there's a lot of emotion that's put into this population," said Lin, a surgeon at the Duke Pulmonary Transplant Clinic in Durham, N.C. "But, in the end, as a health care professional, it's about saving people's lives."
Three decades ago, when organ transplantation was in its infancy, Charlie Fiske led a pioneering effort to find a liver for his 11-month-old daughter, Jamie, who was dying.
He went across the country seeking a donor, then to the media and finally to Congress – his relentless work not only saved his daughter's life, but hundreds of others, as it led to a new awareness and the start of the national organ transplant bank. Jamie is now 32 and doing well, he said.
People awaiting life-saving transplants are not in a position to be selective, Fiske, 68, said.
"If the organ is coming from somebody in prison or someone who has never committed a crime, it doesn't make any difference for the person receiving it," Fiske said.

I am a 49 year old female. I rarely get ill and have never had problems with any allergies. This started November of 2007. The constant feeling that something is stuck in my throught. It seems to be worse at night causing me to go into coughing fits and lose a lot of sleep. I am able to cough up white and or clear mucus but it is never ending. I often have wheezing as well. It is difficult to tell sometimes if it is coming from just my throught or down in my chest. I have been to 2 doctors (seveal visits each). My family doctor and an ENT. I have takeb decongestants, antihistamines, steriods (pills and shots), nasal sprays and nasal washes. I have had a chest exray and catscan. Out of all of this my ENT tells me it is post nasal drip. I have little to no conjestion in my nose nor do feel any dripping but I always seem to have a lump in my throught. I am miserable and making my family very unhappy as well. I just don't know where to go from here. I am hoping someone has some insight here. Please help!!Reply Follow This Thread Stop Following This Thread Flag this Discussion

MythTV 0.25 added support for AirTunes and AirPlay for streaming audio and video from iOS devices to MythFrontend.
Note: Please note - AirPlay (video support) is experimental at this time. Although AirPlay and AirTunes will work from various iOS devices (i.e., iPod touch, iPhone, iPad), it does not currently work when trying to stream from iTunes.
Enabling AirTunes
AirTunes does not work out the box because AirTunes is a proprietary format and is encrypted in order to enable vendor lock-in. Fortunately the encryption key has been discovered which enables use of AirTunes in open source applications such as MythTV.
When starting the frontend, you will get the following message in the log:
RAOP Conn: Failed to read key from: /home/<user>/.mythtv/RAOPKey.rsa
You can obtain the key from this post at the vlc-devel mailing list or from google's cache.
Simply copy the entire section:-
-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY----- (and everything inbetween) -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
Paste into a new file at /home/<user>/.mythtv/RAOPKey.rsa and restart your frontend.
The correct RAOPKey.rsa file will have the SHA-1 sum
35a168eaecec4d3c31424bba54de5ca0a058c24a. You can check this with the command
shell> shasum ~/.mythtv/RAOPKey.rsa
if you see a message like the following in your logs, you can lookup the error code below
RAOPDevice bonjourregister.cpp:56 (Register) - Bonjour: Error: -65563
(taken from the freely available mDNSResponder source code)
kDNSServiceErr_Unknown = -65537, /* 0xFFFE FFFF */ kDNSServiceErr_NoSuchName = -65538, kDNSServiceErr_NoMemory = -65539, kDNSServiceErr_BadParam = -65540, kDNSServiceErr_BadReference = -65541, kDNSServiceErr_BadState = -65542, kDNSServiceErr_BadFlags = -65543, kDNSServiceErr_Unsupported = -65544, kDNSServiceErr_NotInitialized = -65545, kDNSServiceErr_AlreadyRegistered = -65547, kDNSServiceErr_NameConflict = -65548, kDNSServiceErr_Invalid = -65549, kDNSServiceErr_Firewall = -65550, kDNSServiceErr_Incompatible = -65551, /* client library incompatible with daemon */ kDNSServiceErr_BadInterfaceIndex = -65552, kDNSServiceErr_Refused = -65553, kDNSServiceErr_NoSuchRecord = -65554, kDNSServiceErr_NoAuth = -65555, kDNSServiceErr_NoSuchKey = -65556, kDNSServiceErr_NATTraversal = -65557, kDNSServiceErr_DoubleNAT = -65558, kDNSServiceErr_BadTime = -65559, /* Codes up to here existed in Tiger */ kDNSServiceErr_BadSig = -65560, kDNSServiceErr_BadKey = -65561, kDNSServiceErr_Transient = -65562, kDNSServiceErr_ServiceNotRunning = -65563, /* Background daemon not running */ kDNSServiceErr_NATPortMappingUnsupported = -65564, /* NAT doesn't support NAT-PMP or UPnP */ kDNSServiceErr_NATPortMappingDisabled = -65565, /* NAT supports NAT-PMP or UPnP but it's disabled by the administrator */ kDNSServiceErr_NoRouter = -65566, /* No router currently configured (probably no network connectivity) */ kDNSServiceErr_PollingMode = -65567, kDNSServiceErr_Timeout = -65568
Enabling AirPlay (video support)
Because AirPlay support is experimental, you have to manually enable it at the command line.
Enabling In All Operating Systems
Set the environment variable named MYTHTV_AIRPLAY before starting the frontend from the command line, for example:-
shell> export MYTHTV_AIRPLAY="1" shell> mythfrontend
where shell> denotes the command-line prompt, not something you type.
Permanently Enabling in OSX Finder
If you want it enabled for starting MythFrontend from the Finder, run
shell> echo setenv MYTHTV_AIRPLAY 1 | launchctl
and if you want it enabled this way permanently then run
shell> echo setenv MYTHTV_AIRPLAY 1 >> ~/.launchd.conf

Jags Toby Gerhart returns to practice
Expects to play on Thursday against Bears
JACKSONVILLE – Just two days away from the Jaguars second preseason game, the team received some good news as Toby Gerhart returned to practice, WJXT reports.
The Jags starting running back missed nearly two weeks with a hip flexor, including the Jags' preseason opener against the Buccaneers.
"It felt good to be out there," Gerhart said. "It's been awhile. Everything felt good and I'm excited."
Gerhart worked with the first-team offense and delivered with a big run on his first carry during 11-on-11 drills.
"I think I'm good to go," Gerhart said. "I got cleared yesterday with all the progression stuff and wanted to see how today went. Today went really well so I think we're all good to go."
Gus Bradley said Gerhart will likely play Thursday against the Bears but his reps could be limited.
"I'm anticipating, if I hear good reports, he's going to play," Bradley said. He's going to get in there and we're going to get him some reps. It might be four or five carries, something like that to get him going. But I've just got to wait and see what I find out on the latest report."

John Fabian Witt
Tuesday, October 9, 2012
12:15-1:15 pm | Room 3043
Duke Law School
Join Yale Law Professor John Fabian Witt for a lunchtime lecture as he discusses his newly published book, "Lincoln's Code: The Laws of War in American History." Book sales and signing will follow. This event is cosponsored by CICL and LENS.
For more information, please contact Ali Prince.
In the fateful closing days of 1862, just three weeks before Emancipation, Abraham Lincoln's top military advisors commissioned a code of rules to govern the armies of the United States in a newly intensified war effort. The code Lincoln issued the next spring helped shape the remaining two years of Civil War. Its rules on torture, prisoners of war, assassination, and more quickly became foundations of the modern laws of war and today's Geneva Conventions. Yet the hidden story of Lincoln's code, and of the decades of controversy that lay behind it, has never been told.
In this masterful and strikingly original history, John Witt charts the alternately troubled and triumphant course of the laws of war in America from the Founding Founders to the dawn of the modern era, revealing the history of a code that reshaped the laws of war the world over. Ranging from the Revolution to the War of 1812, from war with Mexico to the Civil War, from Indian wars to the brutal counterinsurgency campaign in the Philippines, Witt tells a story that features presidents as well as men in the throes of battle, one that spans war-makers and pacifists, Indians and slaves. In a time of heated controversy about the nation's conduct in the war on terror, Lincoln's Code is a compelling story of ideals under pressure and a landmark contribution to our understanding of the American experience.
John Fabian Witt is Allen H. Duffy Class of 1960 Professor of Law at Yale Law School. He writes in the history of American law and in torts, including Lincoln's Code: The Laws of War in American History (Free Press, September 2012), Patriots and Cosmopolitans: Hidden Histories of American Law (Harvard University Press, 2007), and the prizewinning book, The Accidental Republic: Crippled Workingmen, Destitute Widows, and the Remaking of American Law (Harvard University Press, 2004), as well as articles in the American Historical Review, the Columbia Law Review, the Harvard Law Review, the Yale Law Journal, and other scholarly journals. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, Slate, and The Washington Post and he has been a guest on NPR's All Things Considered. In 2010 he was awarded a John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship for his project on the laws of war in American history. Professor Witt is a graduate of Yale Law School and Yale College and he holds a Ph.D. in history from Yale. Before returning to Yale, he was the George Welwood Murray Professor of Legal History at Columbia University. He served as law clerk to Judge Pierre N. Leval on the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.

New Mexico town tops Lewiston in "Best of the Road" competition
by Joshua Maloni
Santa Fe was named "Best for Food" in the 2012 Rand McNally/USA Today "Best of the Road" competition. The New Mexico town topped five other destinations - including Lewiston - to take the title. The official announcement was made Tuesday afternoon as part of the Destination Marketing Association International annual convention in Seattle. It was streamed live on the Internet.
At The Brickyard Pub & B.B.Q. on Center Street, Lewiston volunteers huddled around an iPad and assorted iPhones to watch glimpses of the "Best of the Road" presentation. When the announcement was made, they expressed disappointment, but took solace in their efforts.
"It wasn't for lack of trying," said volunteer Tim Henderson.
While Lewiston fell short of its overall goal of winning, it didn't exit the contest empty-handed. It won the online voting portion of the competition in a landslide. The village's restaurants gained national attention through the blogging and videos of "Best for Food" judges "The Road Bros" (Mike Shubic and Brian Cox), and Lewiston is expected to be included July 25 on the Travel Channel's "Best of the Road" one-hour special.
"We won already," said volunteer Jude Caserta. "We're going to be on the Travel Channel. Everybody knows about us. The word is out."
Niagara Tourism and Convention Corp. President John Percy was in Seattle for the "Best of the Road" announcement. He phoned volunteer coordinator Lee Simonson with the verdict as it was presented. Simonson, in turn, thanked the residents who took time to welcome "The Road Bros" and show Lewiston off to the world.
"On behalf of the volunteers, we're so grateful to have this kind of opportunity," he said. "Lewiston did get in the top 6 (nationally, out of 700 entrants); we did win in the online voting - there's nothing that can take that away from us. We just think that the whole exercise brought out the best in this community."
Indeed, a giant banner flew over Center Street welcoming Shubic and Cox; volunteers threw both judges a large-scale party at The Silo Restaurant on the first day of their stay, and a second celebration at Water Street Landing on night two; children asked "The Road Bros" for autographs, and parents posed for pictures.
"We had different constituencies working together - people who have never met each other working together," Simonson said. "You combine that with the restaurants and with what the local government did, and the corporate sponsors we were able to get, (and) it just gelled into a tremendous community effort that probably could be used as a model in the future for other campaigns that we conduct."
It's for that reason the volunteers left The Brickyard with their heads held high.
"I think everybody is walking away from this with a great feeling," Simonson said. "We knew that the competition was tough. Santa Fe, New Mexico, is considerably larger than Lewiston. And, there's no doubt, Santa Fe probably has some of the best food in the world - let alone the country. But, for the size town we are, and what we have to offer, I think we did a great job."
Michelle Blackley, communications manager at the NTCC, said the entire region benefitted from Lewiston's culinary quest.
"It was great for the county, the attention that it brought to the area," she said. "The food that Lewiston has to offer - and the whole ambiance of the town - it proved that it's a great place to visit. It's a great place to come and enjoy what we have to offer."
Caserta, who escorted "The Road Bros" around Lewiston with volunteers Leandra Collesano and Lisa Ohanessian, said she'll never forget the experience.
"It was like being Santa Claus at every stop that we made," she said. "It was amazing. I have never had such a powerful reaction from strangers as I did that day."
"It was really amazing how everyone came together," Caserta said. "We really did just put this together in a few days. That's not an exaggeration. We had the announcement early on a Saturday morning and, by Wednesday afternoon, Tim Henderson, and Lee and I were meeting with 'The Road Bros' and the folks from the Travel Channel. So, we put that together in five days, and we probably changed that itinerary easily - conservatively - 20 times, to include as many things and as many options as we could.
"I just think that people came together like nothing I've ever seen. It was one of the best experiences of my life."
Simonson said, "Every community that was visited would tell you the same thing: This whole 'Best of the Road' exercise brought out the best in each town."
USA Today writer Laura Bly said Shubic and Cox were impressed with Santa Fe's blend of Native American, Hispanic and European cultures, and could see "the vibrancy of the city" in the dishes they were served.
The Travel Channel's "Best of the Road" highlight show airs at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, July 25.

Let's say you want to save a line or two of code when comparing for some empty data structure like a List. You decide to use comparison for equality:
val items = Nil
if (items == Nil) println("No items")
Then you decide to refactor and turn the items collection into a Set. The Scala compiler is clever and should give you a warning, right? Well, not quite:
val items = Set()
if (items == Nil) println("No items")
This results in nothing printed, as the expression evaluates to false. Of course, given the types it's perfectly clear at compile-time that this will never be true. Can't the compiler give you a hint? Indeed, it will if you use pattern matching:
items match {
case Nil => println("No items")
case _ =>
This will result in the following error message:
error: pattern type is incompatible with expected type;
found : object Nil
required: scala.collection.immutable.Set[Nothing]
case Nil => println("No items")
The examples are contrived (unparameterized Nil and Set?), but you get the point. Yes, Nil can never be a value of the Set type. You might think this is fairly obvious, but pattern matching can be a life saver when implicit conversions are involved. Consider this:
"heh".reverse == "heh"
What does this evaluate to? This should be obvious, right? But the value is false! If you used pattern matching, you would easily see why:
"heh".reverse match {
case "heh" => "obvious?"
This will make the compiler very nervous, and this is the reason why:
error: type mismatch;
found : java.lang.String("heh")
required: scala.runtime.RichString
case "heh" => "obvious?"
So reverse converts the String to the wrapper RichString, which is not the same type as String.
I have had similar problems detecting a bug where I was checking for equality with None a variable which was of type net.liftweb.common.Box (a type very similar conceptually to Scala's built-in Option).
This made me adopt a general rule to prefer pattern matching rather than equality comparison. The bugs it catches are sometimes subtle and hard to see, and that's exactly what Scala's rich static type checker tries to avoid. Use it to your advantage.
Since we're talking about bugs caught by pattern matching, there's one subtle bug, which is often (though not always) caught by the compiler (another contrived example follows):
val items = Set()
Set() match {
case items => println("empty")
case _ => println("full")
This will result in an error, which looks a little bit unusual to the newbie:
error: unreachable code
case _ => println("full")
This error is usually crying out loud: hey, you're inadvertently using variable binding instead of constant matching! The newly bound variable items shadows the existing variable with the same name and all other cases after it will never match.
One way to fix it is to use backticks to prevent the name to be bound to a new variable:
Set() match {
case `items` => println("empty")
case _ => println("full")
As a rule of thumb it is advised to use CapitalLetters for case classes and constants which you intend to pattern match.
This error wouldn't have occurred if you used equality comparison in the first place, but even in mildly complex cases pattern matching trumps plain equality checking in readability and detecting errors. Apparently, there are cases where pattern matching fails (for instance, matching structural types), so there's still no reason to deprecate good old "==". But there are many more errors, which pattern matching catches, like checking if the match is exhaustive. So there's no point in saving a couple of characters but lose the type safety you expect from Scala.

The Lace Monitor was suffering a fractured jaw and had a mouth infection. Veterinarian Michelle Campbell inserted a feeding tube to help the animal eat whilst recovering from his injuries as well as a course of antibiotics and pain relief. After just one month the Lace Monitor is recovering well and has had his feeding tube removed. The Lace Monitor will remain in the care of the Wildlife Hospital for approximately one more month, so that he can gain his strength before being released back into the wild nearby where he was found.

Ladies and Gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts. We are ready for take-off. That's right. We are officially one week away from Thanksgiving and the start of the "official" holiday season. Note, that the commercial holiday season started sometime during the end of summer I think judging by the fact that Christmas music was blaring before Halloween in some places and winter clothes are pretty much going on clearance and it's not even winter yet. If you don't get to the store soon, you won't be able to get this summer's bathing suits because I am sure that they are going to coming full circle to next fall's outfits fairly shortly.
The past week or so around here has been crazed to say the least. More crazed than normal, which for those of you that know me, says a lot. Let's just say upfront that I haven't been at my best. Too much to do and quite honestly I am feeling run down and exhausted. A sore throat at the beginning of last week kicked things off on a wonderful note and it has not been fun since then and I still don't feel back to normal. Throw in the mix the week before the high school play with two kids involved in that process and my head is just spinning. Add some teenage attitude and two kids with colds and well….you get the picture.
Tomorrow, company is a-coming. The MRU play is tomorrow and Saturday evenings — Tim's high school theater premiere (Ta-da).
Company will be fun to catch up with and relaxing even though I am cooking the Thanksgiving dinner here in a week.
Full speed ahead…….

Honda's readying its production Insight for worldwide debut at the Detroit Auto Show two weeks from now, but we've got scans of what looks to be the sporty Modulo version for you now.
We showed you the front three-quarter shot that Honda provided of its production Insight earlier this month and we just recently received these scans from a poster at the Temple of Vtec. Depicted are the first shots of the production Insight from the rear three-quarter as well as its interior.
While the front design of the 2010 Honda Insight goes largely unchanged from the Insight Concept, the rear design is tidied up a bit and loses some of its show car flair. The interior is also very similar to what was shown in the Paris Motor Show Insight Concept, but it loses some of the neat capacitive touch button surfaces in favor of traditional push buttons.
Also shown is what appears to be the sportier Modulo version – an accessorized version outfitted from the factory. The Modulo Insight is shown wearing a sportier bodykit including a front-lip spoiler with fog lamps, side skirts, lower rear fascia and a set of larger alloy wheels.
Below we have an as-yet unofficial spec sheet listing the different models and options, but we'll wait for further information from Honda before trusting this information completely. Honda is expected to release the production Insight for worldwide sale in the spring of 2009 at an entry-level price of $18,000 to $19,000.

This may sound stupid to someone who knows more about Android, but I don't and it it has been bugging me for some time now.
Since Android is at its core a Linux system, shouldn't it be possible to directly boot from a different storage device (like the SD card) the same way I can boot my computer from a thumbdrive?
This would (in theory) enable the to use a (big) SD card as system memory instead of the (in my case, which is a Wildfire S) ridiculously small real system memory.
So, is this possible? If yes: How? And are there links/howtos? If no: Why? Which meachanisms prevent that from happening? Or has just nobody tried to do it?
