Playing MP3 Files From Excel
Category: General VBA | [Item URL]
If you create a hyperlink in a cell that points to an MP3 file, clicking the hyperlink plays the audio file in your default MP3 program. But there's a big problem: You will get at least one (probably two) annoying security messages. Microsoft has described a way to disable these messages, but it's a complicated procedure.
Here's an alternative approach that uses a simple VBA macro. The macro assumes the active cell contains a compete filepec for an MP3 file (that is, the full path and the filename).
Sub PlayMP3() Application.ScreenUpdating = False On Error Resume Next ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(Filename:=ActiveCell.Text, Link:=True).Select If Err.Number <> 0 Then Application.ScreenUpdating = True MsgBox "Could not play " & ActiveCell.Text Exit Sub End If Selection.Verb Selection.Delete End Sub
The PlayMP3 procedure creates an OLE object that links to the file in the active cell. The Verb method loads the linked file into the default MP3 player, and then the OLE object is deleted. If the active cell contains something other than a valid path to an MP3 file, a message is displayed and nothing happens. It's fast, and you'll never see a security warning message.
By the way, this VBA macro also works with image files. If the active cell contains a path to an image file, the file is displayed in your default image viewing software.
User-Defined Function Argument Descriptions In Excel 2010
Category: VBA Functions | [Item URL]
One of the new features in Excel 2010 is the ability to provide argument descriptions for user-defined functions. These descriptions appear in Function Arguments dialog box -- which is displayed after you choose a function using the Insert Function dialog box.
Here's a simple (but very useful) user-defined function:
Function EXTRACTELEMENT(Txt, n, Separator) As String EXTRACTELEMENT = Split(Application.Trim(Txt), Separator)(n - 1) End Function
Here's a VBA macro that provides a description for the EXTRACTELEMENT function, assigns it to a function category, and provides a description for each of its three arguments:
Sub DescribeFunction() Dim FuncName As String Dim FuncDesc As String Dim Category As String Dim ArgDesc(1 To 3) As String FuncName = "EXTRACTELEMENT" FuncDesc = "Returns the nth element of a string that uses a separator character" Category = 7 'Text category ArgDesc(1) = "String that contains the elements" ArgDesc(2) = "Element number to return" ArgDesc(3) = "Single-character element separator" Application.MacroOptions _ Macro:=FuncName, _ Description:=FuncDesc, _ Category:=Category, _ ArgumentDescriptions:=ArgDesc End Sub
You need to run this macro only one time. After doing so, the descriptive information is stored in the workbook (or add-in) that defines the function.
Here's how the function appears in the Function Arguments dialog box:
What about compatibility with earlier versions?
If the file is opened in Excel 2007, the argument descriptions are not
displayed. If you save the workbook as an XLS file, the Compatibility Checker
kicks in and tells you that the function descriptions will be removed.
Dual Monitors And UserForms
Category: General VBA / UserForms | [Item URL]
A UserForm object has a property named StartUpPosition. By default, this property is set to 1 (CenterOwner), which means that it should appear in the center of Excel's window.
This works fine, unless you have a dual-monitor system. In such a case, the UserForm is not centered in the Excel window. On my system, UserForms always display on the left side of the secondary monitor, even if Excel is maximized on the primary monitor.
To force an Excel UserForm to be centered in Excel's window, use this code to display the UserForm:
With UserForm1 .StartUpPosition = 0 .Left = Application.Left + (0.5 * Application.Width) - (0.5 * .Width) .Top = Application.Top + (0.5 * Application.Height) - (0.5 * .Height) .Show End With
I was hoping this would be fixed in Excel 2010, but nothing has changed. I'm
sure most of the Microsoft programmers use at least two monitors, so they are
obviously aware of the problem.
Old-Style Menus In Excel 2007
Category: General / CommandBars & Menus | [Item URL]
Here's a quick way to display the old-style menu in Excel 2007 or later. Execute this VBA procedure, and you'll get a toolbar that contains the old Excel 2003 menu commands.
Sub MakeOldMenus() Dim cb As CommandBar Dim cbc As CommandBarControl Dim OldMenu As CommandBar ' Delete it, if it exists On Error Resume Next Application.CommandBars("Old Menus").Delete On Error GoTo 0 ' Create an old-style toolbar ' Set the last argument to False for a more compact menu Set OldMenu = Application.CommandBars.Add("Old Menus", , True) ' Copy the controls from Excel's "Built-in Menus" shortcut menu With CommandBars("Built-in Menus") .Controls("&File").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&Edit").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&View").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&Insert").Copy OldMenu .Controls("F&ormat").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&Tools").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&Data").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&Window").Copy OldMenu .Controls("&Help").Copy OldMenu End With ' Make it visible. It appears in the Add-Ins tab Application.CommandBars("Old Menus").Visible = True End Sub
After you execute this macro, the new menu appears in the Add-Ins tab:
The menu isn't perfect. A few of the command don't work, and the list of recent files in the File menu just shows placeholders.
Text Effects In Text Boxes
Category: Formatting | [Item URL]
If you use Excel 2007 or later, you may not have discovered the "special" Font dialog box that's available when you're working with a Text Box or text in a Shape.
Add a text box and some text, select the text, right-click, and choose Font. (or press Ctrl+1). Excel displays this Font dialog box that is unlike its other Font dialog boxes.
It has quite a few options that aren't normally available -- and even more are in the Character Spacing tab. Here's an example of some unusual text effects.
Is A Particular Word Contained In A Text String?
Category: Formulas / General VBA | [Item URL]
Here's a VBA function that might be useful in some situations.
The ExactWordInString functions returns True if a specified word is contained in a text string.
You might think that this function is just a variation on Excel's FIND function or VBA's Instr function. There's a subtle difference. The ExactWordInString function looks for a complete word -- not text that might be part of a different word.
The examples in the accompanying figure should clarify how this function works. Cell C2 contains this formula, which was copied to the cells below:
The function identifies the complete word trapped, but not the word trap, which is part of trapped. Also, note that a space is not required after a word in order to identify it as a word. For example, the word can be followed by a punctuation mark.
The function, listed below, modified the first argument (Text) and replaces all non-alpha characters with a space character. It then adds a leading and trailing space to both arguments. Finally, it uses the Instr function to determine if the modified Word argument is present in the modified Text argument.
To use this function in a formula, just copy and paste it to a VBA module in your workbook.
Function ExactWordInString(Text As String, Word As String) As Boolean ' Returns TRUE if Word is contained in Text as an exact word match Dim i As Long Const Space As String = " " Text = UCase(Text) ' Replace non-text characters with a space For i = 0 To 64 Text = Replace(Text, Chr(i), Space) Next i For i = 91 To 255 Text = Replace(Text, Chr(i), Space) Next i ' Add initial and final space to Text & Word Text = Space & Text & Space Word = UCase(Space & Word & Space) ExactWordInString = InStr(Text, Word) <> 0 End Function
* Update *
Excel MVP Rick Rothstein sent me a much simpler function that produces the same result. In fact, it uses just one statement:
Function ExactWordInString(Text As String, Word As String) As Boolean ExactWordInString = " " & UCase(Text) & " " Like "*[!A-Z]" & UCase(Word) & "[!A-Z]*" End Function
The Value, Formula, and Text Properties
Category: General VBA | [Item URL]
Student asks teacher. Teacher asks me:
I got an interesting question from a student in my VBA class today, one I'd never considered. I taught them that if you want to enter a formula in a cell, you use a statement like this:
Range("C1").Formula = "=SUM(A1:B1)"
Of course, that works. But the following appears to do the same thing:
Range("C1").Value = "=SUM(A1:B1)"
So the question is, Why do we need the Formula property at all?
These tw0 different properties exist because they can return different information when your code reads them.
- The Formula property returns the formula, if the cell has one. If the cell does not contain a formula, it returns the value in the cell. In the example above, the Formula property returns =(B3-B2)/B2 for cell B4.
- The Value property returns the raw, unformatted value in the cell. In the example, the Value property returns 0.213756613756614 for cell B4.
In addition, VBA provides the (read-only) Text property:
- The Text property returns the text that is displayed in the cell. If the cell contains a numeric value, this property includes all of the formatting. In the example, the Text property returns 21% (a text string) for cell B4.
Yet another relevant property:
- The Value2 property is just like the value property, except that it doesn't use the Date and Currency data types. Rather, this property converts Date and Currency data types Variants containing Doubles. If cell A1 contains the date 2/6/2009, the Value property returns it as a Date, while the Value2 property returns it as a double (i.e., 39850).
Getting A List Of Files Names - Another Method
Category: General | [Item URL]
In a previous tip, I described method of putting a list of file names from a directory into an Excel range. Today I discovered another method that's much simpler. It uses the File protocol in a Web browser.
- Note: This method does not work with Internet Explorer. I tested it with Firefox and Chrome, and it works fine with those browsers.
It's pretty simple:
- Enter the directory path in your browser's address bar. For example,
The browser will convert this path into a URI (Uniform Resource Identifier). For example, g:\music is converted to file:///g:/music/. In addition, the files in that directory will be displayed as hyperlinks, and you can traverse the directory by clicking on directory names. Here's how the file listing appears in Firefox:
- Press Ctrl+A to select all of the text, and then Ctrl+C to copy it.
- Activate Excel, select a cell, and press Ctrl+V to paste.
The filenames will be pasted as hyperlinks with wrapped text. You might prefer to use Paste Special (with the Text option) rather than Ctrl+V. You'll get a three-column range like this (copied from Firefox):
Google's Chrome browser is actually better for this task because it doesn't precede the file names with "File:" and it puts the date and time in a single cell.
This technique works with a single directory. If you need to get a list of files in multiple directories, you must repeat the procedure for each directory.
For more flexibility, use the Filename Lister utility in my PUP add-in.
Clearing The Text To Columns Parameters
Category: General / General VBA | [Item URL]
Have you ever imported a CSV file, or pasted data into a worksheet, only to find that Excel split up your data incorrectly? If so, the culprit is probably the Text To Columns feature. Here's Step 2 of the wizard that's used to split a single column of delimited data into multiple columns.
In this case, three delimiters are specified: tab, comma, and colon.
This is a very useful feature, and I use it a lot. The problem is, Excel tries to be helpful by remembering these settings for subsequent CSV imports and paste operations. Sometimes remembering these settings really is helpful, but often, it's not. To clear these delimiters, you must display this dialog box, clear the settings, and click Cancel.
If you're importing or pasting via a macro, there's no direct way for your macro to check these settings or reset them. The solution is to "fake" a text-to-columns operation. The procedure below does that, with the effect of clearing all of the settings from the Text To Columns dialog box (and making no changes to your workbook).
Sub ClearTextToColumns() On Error Resume Next If IsEmpty(Range("A1")) Then Range("A1") = "XYZZY" Range("A1").TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A1"), _ DataType:=xlDelimited, _ TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, _ ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, _ Tab:=False, _ Semicolon:=False, _ Comma:=False, _ Space:=False, _ Other:=False, _ OtherChar:="" If Range("A1") = "XYZZY" Then Range("A1") = "" If Err.Number <> 0 Then MsgBox Err.Description End Sub
This macro assumes that a worksheet is active, and it's not protected. Note that the contents of cell A1 will not be modified because no operations are specified for the TextToColumns method.
If cell A1 is empty, the code inserts a temporary string (because the
TextToColumns method will fail if the cell is empty). Before ending, the
procedure deletes the temporary string.
Formulas To Perform Day Of Month Calculations
Category: Formulas | [Item URL]
A companion file is available: Click here to download
Many events are scheduled for a particular occurrence of the day within a month. For example, payday might be the last Friday of every month. Or, a meeting might be scheduled for every second Monday of the month.
Excel doesn't have a function that can calculate these types of dates, but it's possible to create a formula. In the figure below, the formula in cell D4 calculates the date based on the parameters in column C. The formula in D4 is:
This formula is not always accurate, however. If you specify a day number that doesn't exist (for example, the 6th Friday), it returns a date in the following month.
Cell D6 contains a modified formula that displays "(none)" if the date isn't in the month specified. This formula is much longer:
=IF(MONTH(DATE(C3,C4,1+((C6-(C5>=WEEKDAY(DATE(C3,C4,1))))*7)+ (C5-WEEKDAY(DATE(C3,C4,1)))))<>C4,"(none)",DATE(C3,C4,1+ ((C6-(C5>=WEEKDAY(DATE(C3,C4,1))))*7)+(C5-WEEKDAY(DATE(C3,C4,1)))))
In some cases, you might need to determine the last occurrence of a day in a particular month. This calculation requires a different formula (refer to the figure below):
In this figure, the formula in cell D10 displays the date of the last Friday in March, 2008.
The download file for this tip contains another example that has an easy-to-use interface. The user can select the parameters from drop-down lists. The megaformula in the Calculated Date column is very complex because it needs to covert words into values.

Bromleys of Berrington and Nichols of Allestree
Hello Catherine here :)Have been busy researching both sides of my family and have hit a brick wall on my maternal side, the Nichols.They were derbyshire based, mainly Allestree. I spent a large ammount of my childhood with my grandparents in their family home called "Woodside" in Church Lane, Darley Abbey. "Woodside" was demolished to make way for a new A road (what a crime). Anyway am looking for any information about the Nichols family relatives. Many Thanks in anticipation !

I want to emphasize again in this video, the importance of evaluating your child who is on the Autism spectrum for clostridia bacteria. Let me break it down a couple of different ways because there is some confusion in the community about what clostridia is. There is a type of clostridia called clostridia difficile. Now clostridia difficile has been known for a long time to be a really bad bug. It is becoming a worsening problem in the hospital setting because of the resistance to treatment and also the increased potential for cross infection among patients. And clostridia difficile at its core can lead to a serious inflammatory bowel condition called Pseudomembranous Colitis.
So clostridia difficile is sort of in its own category but it is part of the clostridia family. Now clostridia difficile can also produce a toxin called 4-Cresol and 4-Cresol actually will inhibit enzymes or an enzyme in the brain that can lead to a disruption of dopamine. So think of clostridia difficile as its own category of a bacteria that is really bad and certainly needs to be evaluated with anybody on the Autism spectrum. The way it is best analyzed is through the Organic Acids Test from Great Plains Laboratory. You can also do the Microbial Organic Acids Test from Great Plains because the Microbial Organic Acids Test is looking specifically at the yeast and bacterial markers.
Another marker called HPHPA comes from a group of other clostridia. See you have to think of clostridia as a family and none of them are good but you've got certain members of that family which are really bad. HPHPA is identifying the presence of other types of clostridia family members, not clostridia difficile but other member of the clostridia family. And it too, just like the 4-Cresol, will inhibit an enzyme that effects dopamine metabolism. And I'll talk in the next video about what are some of the implications of actually having high values of 4-Cresol and high HPHPA with respects the Autistic condition that we so often see in anybody who is dealing with clostridia but certainly any child on the Autism spectrum, teenager or adult who is having behavioral problems, learning problems, that clostridia can be a really bad bug.

No, sliders have since been a term for all people who travel between parallel worlds/dimensions/universes, or just dimensions.
I believe that Haruhi wasn't wishing to meet a single slider, like the others(alien, time traveller and esper), she just wished sliding would be possible or something. And the entire SOS-dan are sliders, all of them has gotten in and out of closed spaces, parallel dimensions and such.
Yuki and Itsuki can easily get in and out of specific closed spaces, so they are actually an alien/esper + slider.
Mikuru's theory on time planes is actually similar to dimensional sliding, where you can access different parts of each time line by sliding through a time plane to another.
Kyon himself experienced all sorts of dimensions, he was forced to be a slider lol
Haruhi is even more potent, she creates her own dimensions lol

Wonder why Haruhi kept Kyon since he is just an ordinary human being mentioned by Itsuki? Isn't the SOS Brigade is made up of those people who Haruhi want to meet by accident? That's like making the impossible possible isn't it?

Since episode 14 is out, half of Kyon's identity has been revealed.
Haruhi didn't want to meet any of them by accident, she wanted to meet them(aliens, time travellers and espers) in her heart, she really wanted to meet them. And Kyon is the one she wanted to meet most.
Haruhi wants to meet Kyon because she wants to meet someone who would listen to her, who would relate to her, someone she can talk to. Or in other words she's looking for someone she can love and be loved. Kyon's power = the power of love.

Wow I haven't seen someone sum that end up so well. I wonder how many other people got it on their own.
I don't know though I kind of wanted to see more. The ending seemed a little rushed. I kind of wanted to see him find out about the mole is some meaningful why. Oh well, we cant get everything we want.

I still think it's debatable why Kyon is in SOS-dan. I've already proposed a possible theory where NOVEL SPOILERS AHEAD
I think this is very plausible. Her and Kyon are far from solidified, and I'd think the author would really drag on the novel for more volumes before seriously bringing them together..

You! stop beating me too the punch. Yes believe it or not under all the hustle and bustle Haruhi is a lonely girl who needs someone to care for and watch out for her, unfortunately that duty seems to rest on the often indifferent Kyon, why, search me, personally I think she could do better but maybe she likes him for some other reason. I mean people seem to like me and I don't even know why so I'm not the best person to explain this stuff , ask C.A he's a pretty sentimental guy.

OK, I just wanted everyone to know I bought the first novel yesterday, and... Yeah, it's gonna take me a while to finish it.
The funniest part of reading in Japanese is that you can hear kyon's voice in your head all along.
Actually, I think it must have been pointed out many times here but lots of sentences have been used in the anime just as they are in the novel. So it's even better!

Hmmm, I've never seen those before, they may exist though
Most anime out there are adaptations of light novels
Haruhi originally starts out as a novel and became a manga which failed, then kyoani created the anime. A new manga was created, but it isn't really good compared to the novels and anime. The novels are still the best for the story though, Tanigawa Nagaru is just too good.

And I can assure you there are many bad light novels based on manga or anime. But let's ask KJ ok?
Then, yeah, Tanigawa rocks. He must be Kyon, or something, to be able to write like that.

i have a question 'bout the anime and the novels as well
the anime is an adaptation of the novels; but which ones? i´d guess and say that most if not all, of the first novel and some short-storys from vol 2-3-4; but that's only my guess :P

The competition gets underway at Forrester, Steffy leaves, and Hope visits Liam.
At Forrester, Rick tells Hope that Caroline is doing good and her mothers are taking care of her at home. He brings up his lie. She talks about her and Liam being messed with and now he's closer than ever with Steffy. Rick says not to let that stop her. He apologizes for interfering and says he's learned his lesson. Hope says the final hurdle is Steffy, who isn't going anywhere. Rick promises to win back Hope's trust. Thomas appears, and they discuss the absence of Caroline and Steffy. Thomas says Steffy's going to see Ridge. Rick and Thomas agree that after the decision's made they'll all have to pull together. Hope has something to do suddenly and takes off.
In the main Forrester office, Eric, Donna, Pam, Thorne, and Marcus discuss the competition and Eric having to choose between Thomas and Rick. Thorne says it comes down to who wants it more. Pam tells Donna she's making pot roast tonight in case she's thinking of stopping by. Donna says she'd love to, but Pam says it wasn't an invitation. Donna tells Pam she's not the only one who cares about Eric. Thorne, meanwhile, assures Eric his days of wanting to run the company are over. Rick and Thomas join the others. Eric makes a speech that he will still be CEO and whoever wins answers to him.
Hope walks into the Malibu house. "Knock, knock!" Liam awkwardly accepts her cinnamon bagels. They discuss Bill. Liam says Bill is his own worst enemy with family. He realizes she knows Steffy's gone. Hope smiles. "That's why I'm here." He says she didn't waste any time. She tells him she's taking him back.
In her office, Steffy takes a pregnancy test from her purse. After, she looks at the result and flashes to her and Liam discussing having kids. Wide-eyed and teary she gasps, "I'm pregnant."
Spoilers for Next Week on The Bold and the Beautiful:
Eric selects a new president of Forrester Creations.
Steffy is hurt when she sees a close and intimate clinch between Hope and Liam.
Taylor thinks about revealing a secret Steffy told her and thereby breaking a promise.

If you haven't been following basketball this season, you still might
hear about how the Lakers have struggled. Laker management's loss of
composure reached its peak when they fired their head coach weeks ago.
This is a recurring theme not only in sports, but in decision making as a whole.
As long as the team is winning, bad sportsmanship is tolerated,
selfish shots are acceptable, and lack of dedication is overlooked; all
sins are forgiven. Once the team hits a loosing streak however, fingers
get pointed and owners go apeshit.
Most of us think like this too. As long as our grades are decent, its no sweat, I'll worry about it later. Then we get our test back to see that one F, and we freak out. We start pulling all nighters, we start bugging the TAs, taking Aderol, and scheming up ways to cheat.
It is much better to do the opposite instead. When times are going well, we should be constantly reevaluating and looking for ways to improve our performance. When times are bad, we should take a step back, look at the bigger picture, and resist the urge to make drastic moves that could cost us in the near future.
I enjoyed your post a lot.
We can even take it into a relationship level: we usually only complain about a bad behavior of someone when it start affecting our life. For example: let's say you have a coworker who has the habit of getting late all the time. You could come up to him and warn how that is a bad behavior and how it can screw his professional life. But we don't do that, unless he gets late and fucks one of our projects, for example.
If we are motivated to help the other, we should do it right away, not just when things affect us personally.
Jamie A. Thom reached out to me recently with a fantastic letter, and kindly let me post it here for everyone. He talks about something I think a lot of us have experienced - having enough natural ability to coast through easy work, but falling far short of potential because of it. He shook out of it by taking a lot of action and throwing himself into the deep end of getting married, working internationally, and taking on some huge projects.
Pretty inspirational stuff. Here's Jamie -

Dear Sebastian,
I am finally stepping out of the (more than 900 by now!) crowd of regular readers to get in touch and say "hello". First may I say how much I've been enjoying your blog over the past few months, I believe I first stumbled across you after reading your comment on a Less Wrong post about why humans are not automatically strategic. My only previous contact with you was a brief comment on your post about books worth reading to get started on Japanese history, I am currently reading Musashi as a result and am enjoying it very much - many thanks for those recommendations.

If you like metallic hologram foil...
...you might like my new business cards. It's a little bit razzle dazzle but I couldn't resist having them foiled in metallic hologram. I think this came from years of wishing for metallic foil on the masthead of VOGUE Living. I had them printed over at Goldcraft in Sydney's Marrickville. Those guys are the best! Take all your foiling needs to them.
I knew cards were quite the rage here in Japan, but I had no idea just how important it was to have one of your own. They are handed out at almost every occasion involving two people meeting.
So if you are moving to Japan, here is my recommended list of actions:
Get Alien registration card
Get Bank Account
Get Mobile phone
Get Business cards
Get Apartment

FedEx is planning to expand a sort facility near its Super Hub by Memphis International Airport, according to a $1.7 million building permit application filed with the city-county Office of Construction Code Enforcement.
The permit application covers structural steel and roof work to add 16,650 square feet to a 78,450-square-foot building at 3077 Independent Drive, between Republican Drive to the west and Tchulahoma Road to the east, south of Democrat Road.
FedEx in late March released its most recent quarterly earnings report, which covered the three months ended Feb. 29. Net earnings totaled $521 million, or $1.65 a share, compared with $231 million in earnings, or 73 cents a share, in the year-ago quarter.
FedEx Chief Financial Officer Alan Graf said during a March conference call that the company will continue to reduce flight hours – in part because it is continuing to move to new and more efficient Boeing 767 aircraft to replace MD10s.

Bank of Bartlett has reported a profitable first quarter – the third consecutive such quarterly profit, according to the bank.
From Jan. 1 through March 31, the bank reported a net income of a little more than $860,000, compared to a loss of almost $291,000 during the same quarter of 2011.
Among the credit measures that improved during Q1, the bank's 30-90 day delinquencies were at less than 1 percent for the third straight quarter, dropping to 0.44 percent in Q1.
Bank of Bartlett was founded in the town of Bartlett in 1980 and today operates eight bank branches in Shelby County.

Celebrate the New Year enjoying a little time outdoors at one of North Carolina�s state parks.
Celebrate the New Year enjoying a little time outdoors at one of North Carolina�s state parks.
Hammocks Beach State Park and Fort Macon State Park are joining with other parks across the state in offering a First Day Hike event on Jan. 1.
Two different hikes will be offered at Fort Macon State Park to accommodate visitors of all ages.
Park Superintendent Randy Newman will lead a short leisurely hike along the inlet beach across from the fort. Participants will have a chance to learn about the natural and cultural history of the area.
The second hike will be three miles and more strenuous but will give an early view of the path for the new nature trail planned for the park.
Ranger Benjamin Fleming will lead the hike, which will follow a path from the fort to the bathhouse area of the park. The path is currently a basic cut-through that will eventually be the extension of the Elliott Cowes� Natural Trail and encompass the entire park.
�It�s an early peak at what the trail will be,� he said. �We�re trying to get people excited about what�s to come.�
The First Day Hike will be an exploration through maritime forest and ocean dunes, and those planning to make the trip should wear thick shoes and long pants and dress appropriate for the weather.
Both hikes begin at 10 a.m. and participants should meet at the fort parking lot. No reservations are required.
At Hammocks Beach State Park in Onslow County, Park Ranger Renee Evans will lead a trip to Bear Island to explore some of the island�s wildlife that winter in the area. Participants will take a leisurely hike out to the beach and talk about the maritime forest, sand dunes and the beach habitat.
Seating is limited on the ferry and the program is currently booked, but area residents interested are invited to call the park office and leave their name on a standby list in case there are cancellations.
The Hammocks Beach trip begins at 1 p.m. and participants should meet at the Visitor Center.

Never mind the Keystone pipeline for a moment–could Obama have opened the door to drilling in the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR)? If he did that, environmentalists would literally (meaning, in this case, actually) riot in the streets, rather than just getting arrested as a a symbolic gesture as they have done with Keystone.
The Washington Free Beacon (which I always want to render as the Washington Free Bacon, even though no DC pork products are actually free of course) notes this morning that the bipartisan energy report he cited in his State of the Union speech actually calls for opening ANWR. This is a bit embarrassing; Obama doesn't want to be accused of cherry-picking, does he? From the Free Bacon:
A report cited by President Obama during this week's State of the Union address as a possible basis for national energy policy also calls for increased offshore drilling and oil production in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR)—two policies the administration has opposed.
President Obama proposed establishing an "energy security trust" during his speech and referred to the report by Securing America's Future Energy (SAFE).
"If a nonpartisan coalition of CEOs and retired generals and admirals can get behind this idea, then so can we," Obama said. "Let's take their advice and free our families and businesses from the painful spikes in gas prices we've put up with for far too long."
Meanwhile, our friends at Reason.tv are out with this short video (just 2:30 long) on the three reasons we should go ahead with Keystone without delay. Go Nick!
And did I forget to mention . . . bacon, mmmm.

The Workshops will be held within the Conference, September 15-18, 2009 at Milano, Italy. The main goal of the WI-IAT'09 workshops is to stimulate and facilitate active exchange, interaction and comparison of approaches, methods and ideas related to specific topics, both theoretical and applied, in the general areas related to Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology. The workshops will provide an informal setting where participants will have the opportunity to discuss specific technical topics in an atmosphere that fosters the active exchange of ideas. The workshop organizers will be responsible for advertising the workshop, forming the program committees, reviewing and selecting the papers, and guaranteeing a high quality worthy of the prestige and range of the Conference. All papers accepted for workshops will be included in the Workshop Proceedings, which are expected to be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and will be available at the workshops. The workshop organizers will also have the discretion of editing selected papers (after their expansion and revision) into books or special journal issues. Workshops may be full-day or half-day. A full-day workshop should select 10-14 regular papers, while a half-day workshop should select 5-7 regular papers, from a large number of submissions. Submissions accepted as workshop papers will be allocated 4 pages in the proceedings. The workshop organizers should ensure the presence of authors of accepted papers at the workshops. Optionally, the workshop may be started or concluded by a panel focusing on interesting aspects, controversial issues, or unsolved problems to stimulate lively, thoughtful, and thought-provoking debate; we expect the workshop organizers to actively engage the audience and help them gain a deeper understanding of the issues. The goal of a panel is to debate and thus panels should always reflect more than one point of view. *** Workshop Topics Each workshop subject will focus on new research challenges and initiatives in Web Intelligence (WI) and Intelligent Agent Technology (IAT). The workshops should provide an informal and vibrant forum for researchers and industry practitioners to share their research results and practical development experiences in these two fields. Suggested workshop topics include, but are not limited to: - Web Intelligence, Brain Informatics and Cognition-inspired Computing - Intelligent e-Technology (including e-Science, e-Business, e-Learning, e-Finance, e-Government, e-Community) - Intelligent Web Interaction - Knowledge Grids and Grid Intelligence - Semantics and Ontology Engineering - Social Networks and Social Intelligence - Web Agents - Web Information Filtering and Retrieval - Web Mining and Farming - Web Monitoring and Change - Web Personalization and Recommendations - Web Scale Reasoning - Web Security, Integrity, Privacy and Trust - Web Services and Grid Services - Web Support Systems - World Wide Wisdom Web (W4) - Intelligent Web Querying - Agent Systems Modeling and Methodology - Autonomous Knowledge and Information Agents - Autonomous Auctions and Negotiation - Autonomy-Oriented Computing (AOC) - Learning and Self-Adapting Agents - Agents and Data Mining Interaction - Multiagent Systems in e-Business *** Workshop Proposal Submission Workshop proposals should include the following elements: - Title of the workshop - The organizers name, affiliation, mailing address and e-mail address - A description of the topic of the workshop (not exceeding 200 words) - Type of the workshop (full-day or half-day) - A description of how the workshop will contribute to the field of Web Intelligence and/or Intelligent Agent Technology - A short description on how the workshop will be advertised so as to ensure a sufficiently wide range of authors and high quality papers - Optionally, only for full-day workshops, the title of a proposed panel, with a brief description highlighting the reasons of interest of the issues to be debated After the acceptance of a workshop proposal the organizer(s) should: - Create a Call for papers/participation for the workshop - Create a Web page for the workshop, the link of which will be published on the Conference Web site - Create a Board of Reviewers (Program Committee) - Review and select papers - Schedule the workshop activities. Those papers selected by a workshop organizer will also be reviewed by the Workshop Co-Chairs for final acceptance. All submitted papers will be reviewed on the basis of technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity. We will provide an online paper submission and review system to support the workshops. *** Important Dates - Workshop proposal submission due: January 15, 2009 - Notification to workshop proposers: January 25, 2009 - Each Workshop Organizer Sends out Call for Workshops Papers: February 5, 2009 - Due date for full workshop papers submission (4 pages): April 30, 2009 - Final acceptance by Workshop Co-Chairs: June 10, 2009 - Notification of paper acceptance to authors: June 8, 2009 - Camera-ready of accepted papers: June 30, 2009 - Workshop day: September 15, 2009 *** Workshop proposal submissions The above described workshop proposals must be submitted via e-mail (workshops.wi.iat at gmail.com).

Since being named president of Harvard University in 2001, former U.S. Treasury secretary Lawrence Summers has sparked a series of controversies that have grabbed headlines. Summers incurred the wrath of African-Americans when he belittled the work of controversial religion professor Cornel West (who left for Princeton University); last year he infuriated faculty and students alike when he seemed to disparage the innate scientific abilities of women at a Massachusetts economic conference, igniting a national uproar that nearly cost him his job; last fall brought the departure of Jack Meyer, the head of Harvard Management Co., which oversees the school's endowment but had inflamed some in the community because of the multimillion-dollar salaries it pays some of its managers.
Then, in quiet contrast, there is the case of economics professor Andrei Shleifer, who in the mid-1990s led a Harvard advisory program in Russia that collapsed in disgrace. In August, after years of litigation, Harvard, Shleifer and others agreed to pay at least $31 million to settle a lawsuit brought by the U.S. government. Harvard had been charged with breach of contract, Shleifer and an associate, Jonathan Hay, with conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government.
Shleifer remains a faculty member in good standing. Colleagues say that is because he is a close longtime friend and collaborator of Summers.
In the following pages investigative journalist David McClintick, a Harvard alumnus, chronicles Shleifer's role in the university's Russia Project and how his friendship with Summers has protected him from the consequences of that debacle inside America's premier academic institution.
ff duty and in swimsuits, the mentor and his protégé strolled the beach at Truro. For years, with their families, they had summered together along this stretch of Massachusetts' famed Cape Cod. Close personally and professionally, the two friends confided in each other the most private matters of family and finance. The topic of the day was the former Soviet Union.
"You've got to be careful," the mentor, Lawrence Summers, warned his protégé, Andrei Shleifer. "There's a lot of corruption in Russia."
It was late August 1996, and Summers, 42, was deputy secretary of the U.S. Treasury. Shleifer, 35, was a rising star in the Harvard University economics department, just as Summers had been 15 years earlier when he had first taken Shleifer under his wing.
Summers' warning rose out of their pivotal roles in a revolution of global consequence -- the attempt to bring the Russian economy out from the ruins of communism into the promise of Western-style capitalism. Summers, as Treasury's second-in-command, was the architect of U.S. efforts to help Russia. Shleifer's involvement was more intimate. Traveling frequently to Moscow, he was directing key elements of the reform effort under the banner of the renowned Harvard Institute for International Development.
Working on contract for the U.S., HIID advised the Russian government on privatizing its economy and creating capital markets and the laws and institutions to regulate them. Shleifer did not report formally to Summers but rather to the State Department's Agency for International Development, or AID, the spearhead of the U.S.'s foreign aid program.
Personal affection as much as official concern prompted Summers' admonition. He had come to know that Shleifer and his wife, Nancy Zimmerman, a noted hedge fund manager, had been investing in Russia. Though he didn't know specifics, he understood just enough to worry that the couple might run afoul of myriad conflict-of-interest regulations that barred American advisers from investing in the countries they were assisting.
Summers did not restrict his warnings to Shleifer.
"There might be a scandal, and you could become embroiled," Summers told Zimmerman. "You should make sure you're clear with everybody. People might want to make Andrei a problem some day. The world's a shitty place."
Summers' warnings proved at once prophetic and ineffectual. Even as Shleifer and his wife strove to reassure their friend, they were maneuvering to make an investment in Russia's first authorized mutual fund company. Within eight months their private Russian dealings, together with those of close associates and relatives, would explode in scandal -- bringing dishonor to them, Harvard University and the U.S. government. The Department of Justice would deploy the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Attorney's Office in Boston to launch a criminal investigation that would uncover evidence of fraud and money laundering, as well as the cavalier use of U.S. government funds to support everything from tennis lessons to vacation boondoggles for Harvard employees and their spouses, girlfriends and Russian pals. It would, in the end, be an extraordinary display of an overweening "best and brightest" arrogance toward the laws and rules that the Harvard people were supposed to live by.
Says one banker who was a frequent visitor to Russia in that era, "The Harvard crowd hurt themselves, they hurt Harvard, and they hurt the U.S. government."
Mostly, they hurt Russia and its hopes of establishing a lasting framework for a stable Western-style capitalism, as Summers himself acknowledged when he testified under oath in the U.S. lawsuit in Cambridge in 2002. "The project was of enormous value," said Summers, who by then had been installed as the president of Harvard. "Its cessation was damaging to Russian economic reform and to the U.S.-Russian relationship."
Reinventing Russia was never going to be easy, but Harvard botched a historic opportunity. The failure to reform Russia's legal system, one of the aid program's chief goals, left a vacuum that has yet to be filled and impedes the country's ability to confront economic and financial challenges today (see box, page 77).
Harvard vigorously defended its work in Russia, but in 2004, after protracted legal wranglings, a judge in federal district court in Boston ruled that the university had breached its contract with the U.S. government and that Shleifer and an associate were liable for conspiracy to defraud the U.S. Last August, nine years after Summers and his protégé took their stroll along that Truro beach, Harvard, Shleifer and associates agreed to pay the government $31 million-plus to settle the case. Shleifer and Zimmerman were forced to mortgage their house to secure their part of the settlement.
Russia's struggles today certainly don't result entirely from Harvard's misdeeds or Shleifer's misconduct. There is plenty of blame to share. It is difficult to overstate the challenge of transforming the economic and legal culture, not to mention the ancient pathologies, of a huge, enigmatic nation that once spanned one sixth of the earth's land surface, 150 ethnicities and 11 time zones. The Marshall Plan, by comparison, was simple.
Summers wasn't president of Harvard when Shleifer's mission to Moscow was coming apart. But as a Harvard economics professor in the 1980s, a World Bank and Treasury official in the 1990s and Harvard's president since 2001, Summers was positioned uniquely to influence Shleifer's career path, to shape U.S. aid to Russia and Shleifer's role in it and even to shield Shleifer after the scandal broke. Though Summers, as Harvard president, recused himself from the school's handling of this case, he made a point of taking aside Jeremy Knowles, then the dean of the faculty of arts and sciences, and asking him to protect Shleifer.
Months after Harvard was forced to pay the biggest settlement in its history, largely because of his misdeeds, Shleifer remains on the faculty. No public action has been taken against him, nor is there any sign as this magazine goes to press in late December that any is contemplated.
Throughout the otherwise voluble university community, there has been an odd silence about the entire affair. Discussions mostly have taken place sotto voce in deans' offices or in local Cambridge haunts, such as the one where a well-connected Harvard personage expressed deep concern, telling II: "Larry's handling of the Shleifer matter raises very basic questions about the way he governs Harvard. This is fraught with significance. It couldn't be more fraught."
The silence is now beginning to break, thanks to the leadership of academic worthies like former Harvard College dean Harry Lewis, who is finishing a book about the university to be published in the spring by Perseus Public Affairs. Lewis agreed to show II the manuscript, in which he asserts, "The relativism with which Harvard has dealt with the Shleifer case undermines Harvard's moral authority over its students."
As Glenn Reynolds says, read the whole thing . . .

Area hunger is an everyday problem, and on Sunday, more than 300 participants will help raise funds for Religious Community Services in the 32nd annual CROP Walk.
Area hunger is an everyday problem, and on Sunday, more than 300 participants will help raise funds for Religious Community Services in the 32nd annual CROP Walk.
The walk is a local effort of the national program by Church World Services, with First Presbyterian serving as the local headquarters.
Planning committee chairman Jennifer Butler said the goal for the 3 p.m. walk is $30,000. That was the goal a year ago, with $24,000 raised. RCS gets 25 percent of the proceeds, which allowed that nonprofit to get a check for about $6,000 in its efforts to feed the area needy.
Registration begins at 2 p.m. at Union Point Park, followed an hour later by the walk around New Bern�s downtown and historic district, with water stops at RCS and Broad Street Christian Church. There are 5K and 10K options for participants.
To date, Butler said more than $3,000 had been pledged in online donations at cropwalkonline.com. Also, more than 300 walk packets have been handed out, with many more participants expected to register Sunday.
Over more than three decades, the local walk has generated more than $750,000.
For the second year, the event is an effort of several local churches on the planning committee �First Presbyterian, West New Bern Presbyterian, Trinity United Methodist, Garber United Methodist and the Pelatah Ministry.
�We are always looking for more member churches to join in this worthwhile effort,� Butler said.
She said local corporate support had increased this year, with more than $3,000 in donations and in-kind support.
That, she said, will allow the local group to not have any expenses after the event, allowing for 100 percent of its local share going to RCS.
The sponsors include: Fisher Oil; CarolinaEast Medical Center; The Insurance Center; Robert M. Chiles, PE Engineers & Consultants; Zaxby�s; Stubbs & Perdue; New Bern Family Eye Care; Rebecca L. Forrest, D.D.S., P.A.; and Gibbs Dentistry.
Providing in-kind support are: Chick-fil-A; Harris Teeter; Armstrong Grocery; and Atlantic Designs.
Bob Howe, the operations manager at RCS, said the annual CROP Walk donation is a major part of the charity�s efforts.
The RCS Soup Kitchen feeds 150 to 175 people daily at lunch, with more than 100 on Sundays when some other charity options are available for the needy.
RCS also assists an average of 20 families each week with food supplies to last five days.
He said the need for food in the pantry is a year-round situation.

About Fleas:
For every flea that lives on your cat or dog there will be 99 more starting to develop in your carpet and at some point in their lives you animal will suffer an infestation.
Their saliva is considered to be one of the most allergenic substances as it can cause a skin disease in pets which is called Flea Allergic Dermatitis (FAD) Also when fleas bite they take in blood and if the infestation is severe it could cause anaemia in puppies and kittens or even death.
Fleas can live between 7 and 14 days and will divide their time between living on your pet to feed and returning to your carpet to lay more eggs and this happens every day. The larvae then get's buried into carpets and upholstery and can lay dormant for several months. When the adults sense warmth and vibrations they will jump onto your pet and start the cycle over again.
Spotting Fleas:
The most obvious sign of fleas will be that your pet is continuously scratching, you should also be able to see them in the fur of your pets, they are dark brown in colour and are approximately 1 – 2mm long, you should also find tiny black specks of flea dirt on your pet just under their fur. The height of the summer is when fleas are most rife; however they can be just as bad in the winter if you have a warm central heated home.
The winter time is the best time to de-flea your pet and just before the beginning of the summer. A continuous de-fleaing of your pet will keep them to a minimum.

The focus of the Saper laboratory is on the integrated functions maintained by the hypothalamus. These include regulation of wake-sleep cycles, body temperature, and feeding. These functions interact with one another extensively, and all three are driven by homeostatic mechanisms as well as by circadian influences. We attempt to identify the neuronal circuitry that is involved in regulating these responses. We use a variety of methods to analyze neuronal circuits and their functions, including axonal tracer methods combined with in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry; physiological recordings ranging from whole animal chronic recording, to lesion and stimulation methods, single cell extracellular recording in whole animals, and to intracellular recordings in slice preparations; and we use viral vectors and transgenic approaches to introduce and manipulate genes in specific sets of neurons in the brain, and determine their function. In addition to identifying this circuitry in experimental animals, we also are interested in determining the homologous circuitry in human brains, and in determining how it may be disrupted in specific neurological and psychiatric disorders.

PrecedenceConstraint.LoadFromXML Method
This method is not callable by your application code. To load a package containing precedence constraints that are saved as .xml, use the Application.LoadPackage method.
Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS (in Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS.dll)
Public Sub LoadFromXML ( _
node As XmlNode, _
events As IDTSEvents _
Dim instance As PrecedenceConstraint
Dim node As XmlNode
Dim events As IDTSEvents
instance.LoadFromXML(node, events)
public void LoadFromXML(

virtual void LoadFromXML(
XmlNode^ node,

) sealed
abstract LoadFromXML :
node:XmlNode *

override LoadFromXML :
node:XmlNode *
events:IDTSEvents -> unit
public final function LoadFromXML(
node : XmlNode,
events : IDTSEvents
- node
Type: System.Xml.XmlNode
The node that contains the metadata to be loaded.
- events
Type: Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.IDTSEvents
An object that implements the IDTSEvents interface for firing events (errors, warnings, and so on) during persistence.
This method, LoadFromXML, is available because it is public on an interface that you inherit when you are creating custom objects and by objects shipped in the SSIS runtime. This method is intended for inheritance only and should not be called from code for other purposes. If you are creating a custom object and need information about how to write your own LoadFromXML method, see Extending Packages with Custom Objects.
If you want to load a package that has been saved as XML, use the Application.LoadPackage method. If the package has been saved to the File System or MSDB database, use the Application.LoadFromSqlServer or Application.LoadFromDtsServer methods.
When you call any of the loading methods on the Application, the runtime will iterate through the tasks, connection managers, log providers, and all other objects that are contained by the package and call the LoadFromXML method on each of them. The contained objects have code in their LoadFromXML that parses the XmlElement for each property that the object must recreate, and the value saved for the element. Therefore, you do not directly call the LoadFromXML on the individual objects, but call the method on the Application object, and the runtime will cascade through the package and call the LoadFromXML on the objects for you.

Masked Pandas
You have most probably seen this animal that looks like a huge toy. Do you know that these animals eat bamboo and nothing else? An adult panda, for example, eats about 15 kilograms (33 pounds) of bamboo a day. This makes six tons (13,200 pounds) of bamboo a year. For this reason, they eat all day long. They are insatiable, aren't they?
Pandas have a very interesting feature. Now, have a look at your hand. You have five fingers, right? But pandas have six fingers. Our Lord, Who makes everything easy for every living being, has given pandas six fingers and enabled them to grasp their food tightly, so that they can eat easily.
Pandas always live in cold wet places. Because of this, they deliver their babies in cave-like places. Baby pandas are blind and toothless and to us look like little toys. Usually born in September, they are 10 centimetres (4 inches) high and weigh only 142 grams (5 ounces). New-born pandas grow up very fast and are 800 times smaller than their mothers. But after nine months, they weigh 27 kilograms (59 pounds). Remember that a six year old human being only weighs 27 kilograms (59 pounds)!
Pandas are not ferocious animals. They only scratch trees with their paws in order to clean and rasp their nails. To avoid their enemies, they climb trees with their huge bodies. Pandas are very calm animals. While they are asleep, an approaching human being does not bother them. That is, if you encounter a sleeping panda one day, there is no reason not to caress it.

CHICAGO, Oct. 18 (UPI) -- Chicago's Brookfield Zoo announced a 31-year-old dolphin gave birth to a calf, causing a temporary end to the facility's Dolphin Presentations.
The Chicago Zoological Society, which manages the zoo, said mother Tapeko, gave birth Thursday to a calf weighing about 40 pounds and measuring 3.5 feet long.
The society said the zoo's Dolphin Presentations are being put on hold for a time to allow Tapeko to bond with her calf and introduce it to the other dolphins in her group.
"We know that the first 30 days are extremely critical in the calf's life," said Rita Stacey, marine mammal curator for the Chicago Zoological Society.
Tapeko has previously reared four calves, including one grandson.
"This is an important time for our breeding group of females," Stacey said. "As an experienced mom, Tapeko is able to demonstrate to the younger females how to care for a newborn calf."
