Yes, it's out...
The long anticipated release of Visual Studio .NET with support for C# and the .NET environment took place this past week.
Perhaps little known to most developers, the Enterprise Architect version of VS .NET contains support for UML modelling, provided through integration with Microsoft Visio. If you look at the UML support web page, you can see samples of 8 UML diagram types.
How tight this integration is with Visio remains to be seen. Unfortunately, you probably can't get a demo of this version - a download would most likely be huge. If anybody has any experience with the UML support in VS .NET, please comment!
If you want to buy the Enterprise Architect version to try out the UML support, that will set you back about 2500 dollars.

Have a look at my MS Visio 2002 XMI Export Tool posting for an interesting add on tool for Visio 2002 UML diagrams.

I used Visio2002 w/VS.NET Ent. Architect to generate code from UML and reverse engineer code to UML.
First, Visio 2002 is a lot more stable then version 2000. This alone, makes a big difference. 2002 is rock solid!
The code generation feature works well. The code generation options (right click on a class, go into properties, then select 'Code Generation Options') let you create generation templates which you can reuse, so it's easy to customize, easy to reuse the customization on different element, and you can specify a generation template on any element so you have a fine grained control over the whole code generation process.
When you generate code from Visio, Visio does not update the Visual Studio Project with the new code, it creates a new Visual Studio Project and put the code skeleton in it. Same thing when reverse engineering code into a UML model. Visio won't update a model from code, it can only creates a new UML poject.
What is generated when you reverse engineer code is the model's 'skeleton' that you see in the Model Explorer. Reverse engineering code alone doesn't generate any diagrams at all.
So the reverse engineering/code generation features are useful as long as you don't need (as I do) real Round-Trip Engineering, in which case, Rational XDE is a lot better. Also, ironically, XDE is really well integrated into VS.NET. With Visio, you have to go back and forth between the two applications which makes it harder on this so fragile creative workflow!!

I haven't had much opportunity to investigate Visio Enterprise Architect yet, but what I have tried to establish is whether it can be integrated with VSS. Recently I did some UML analysis in Visio 2002 and found that the model couldn't be worked on by more than one analyst (as vb can for example) so only one analyst can work on a model at a time.
If anyone knows how to do this then please post a reply.
I have tried Rational XDE and it is ironic that this is integrated into the .Net IDE and Visio isn't.

Can you tell me how Visio can be integrated with vs.net 2002 or 2003?
I have vs.net 2003 but I can't see Visio integrated with it. I have Visio 2002.

While the Presidents Cup course at Harding Park is distinctly San Francisco, there are pockets of international flair at every turn. "There aren't any team competitions like the Ryder Cup where Australians can play in," says Robert Lusetich of newspaper 'The Australian,' "so it's a very individual sport, and this is an attempt to bring Australians in to a major international team event."
Three Australians represent the International team, which also includes three South Africans and golfers from Colombia, Argentina, Fiji, Canada, Japan and South Korea.
Journalists from around the world are here to cover the likes of Fiji's Vijay Singh, South Africa's Ernie Els and rising Japanese star Ryo Ishikawa. "I think he's going to be a superstar," says Hiro Tsuchiya, Tee Up Golf Magazine editor, "he's already a superstar in Japan, but (soon) I hope in the world."
The International team's top ranked player Geoff Ogilvy is from land down under, where this specific biannual event offers a rare opportunity for International team play.
"I think for the Australians… and in fact, I asked Ogilvy this the other day… and he agreed, it's like representing your country," says Lusetich, adding, "even though the flag is an invented one, he has the feeling that this is like representing Australia because in golf that's not possible, it's an individual sport, so they really enjoy it."
The other thing many of the International team members may enjoy the most is playing for the Shark, "…of course the Captain is Greg Norman," says Lusetich, "so for these guys like Geoff Ogilvy and Adam Scott, they grew up idolizing the Shark and now they get to play for him as the captain, so there is added incentive."
Thursday's first round features foursome matches where International pairings include: Mike Weir (Canada)/Tim Clark (South Africa), Adam Scott (Australia)/Ernie Els (South Africa), Vijay Singh (Fiji)/Robert Allenby (Australia), Angel Cabrera (Argentina)/Camilo Villegas (Colombia), Geoff Ogilvy (Australia)/Ryo Ishikawa (Japan), and Retief Goosen (South Africa)/Y.E. Yang (South Korea).

One of the problems I find myself having lately when writing about both Barack Obama, the man, and President Obama, America's CEO, is my lousy memory, which goes blank when I try to pull up useful information about him. He's been connected with so many scandals that I can't keep track of them. It would be very helpful, I then think to myself, to have a laundry list of every lie he's told, every failure he's overseen, and every scandal on his watch (with Obama always having carefully averted his eyes when his minions carry out their dirty work or display their gross incompetence).
Thankfully, Obama laundry list I crave is now here and, even more thankfully, it's funny, snarky, informed, and comprehensive. I speak, of course, about Teri O'Brien's recently released book, The ABC's of Barack Obama: Understanding God's Greatest Gift to America. For those of you unfamiliar with Teri, she's a self-described "recovering attorney," as well as a radio personality and a blogger. All of those skills inform her book. The lawyer part means that she knows how to put together a strong argument, with each allegation fully supported by relevant facts. The radio personality means that she has a breezy, friendly style that's easy to follow. And the blogger in her means that her writing is fluid and effortless.
In her book, O'Brien takes on the persona of an Obama supporter who keeps getting humorously overwhelmed by Obama's unsavory reality. Imagine, if you will, a defense attorney trying to defend a client he knows is guilty as Hell. The beleaguered attorney keeps coming up with new arguments, only to have the ugly facts float up like long-dead bodies in a fetid pond. O'Brien has a deft touch that makes this technique work. One can read about Obama's many sins without getting bored or overwhelmed.
If you check it out today, you can get the book for free. If you wait too long, you'll pay only $1.99, which is a giveaway price. If you're a leisurely reader, the 56-page book will take a couple of hours (or more) to get through. That's time profitably, intelligently, and enjoyably spent. On the other hand, if you go see a Hollywood movie for the same two hours you'll help fund Leftist directors, producers, and actors, be forced to watch commercials and product placements, and it will cost you $12 a ticket. Also, depending on the movie, you might feel pretty soiled when you leave the theater. With Teri's book, for a 6th of the price (or for free, if you act quickly) you can laugh, learn, and tell yourself that, no matter how corrupt our current political scene is, as long as America produces people like Teri, we're going to be all right.

Since super storm Sandy ravaged neighborhoods and disrupted power along the Eastern Seaboard, tens of thousands of newly homeless Northeasterners and hundreds of thousands more without heat faced temperatures in the 30s this weekend. Residents scrambled to stay fed, warm and alive as a short-term crisis expands into what officials say will be long-term recovery.
"People are in homes that are uninhabitable," New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said in a Sunday morning news conference. "It's going to be increasingly clear that they're uninhabitable when the temperature drops and the heat doesn't come on."
As with many of the complications that have challenged officials' recovery efforts thus far, it's not just the cold that survivors have to worry about. "We've already had fatalities from those trying to heat with propane grill and whatnot," said Edward P. Mangano, executive of New York's Nassau County on Long Island, which reported 266,000 customers without power. The total in New York state was 730,000.
INTERACTIVE: Before and after Hurricane Sandy
New Jersey still had nearly a million customers without power, and residents faced fuel rationing implemented by Gov. Chris Christie.
Gas woes continued to immobilize many in the region. "My wife waited 2.5 hours for gas and called me every half-hour saying what am I doing about it?" New York U.S. Sen. Charles E. Schumer said.

New England's Amendola says he's ready to playThe Sports Xchange
October 25. 2013 9:45PM
New England Patriots wide receiver Danny Amendola said he is ready to play Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins after passing concussion tests this week.
Amendola has been out since sustaining the concussion Oct. 13 against the New Orleans Saints. He returned to practice this week.
The decision to play him has not been decided yet, but Amendola believes he is ready.
"I've done pretty much everything they've asked me to do," he said Friday. "I'm healthy and I'm ready to play.
"I'm sure it's the same thing if you get (in) a car accident. It's all independent doctors. The NFL does a great job of helping guys out with that sort of thing. It's been a big deal in the past three years; you just have to go through (the process) and listen to what they're telling you."
He said it is the second concussion he has had since he entered the NFL in 2008.
"I've had one concussion in the NFL prior to this, it was a long time ago, so there is no aftermath of it," he said. "I don't feel any symptoms or anything. I feel really good."
He is listed as questionable on the team's injury report.
Amendola also missed time with a groin injury. For the season, he has 16 catches for 159 yards in three games.

This week's Tuesdays with Dorie recipe, La Palette's Strawberry Tart, was chosen by Marie of A Year In Oak Cottage.
This tart is very different from most tarts I've made in the past. This one was so easy. The only part that you actually have to make is the crust which came together quickly and easily. The other ingredients are strawberry jam and fresh strawberries. How easy is that?
I chose to do fresh cherries because I had a ton leftover from my cherry pie. I did sprinkle a little sugar on the cherries because I wanted them to be juicy. I also used strawberry jam because I was too lazy to go to the store for cherry preserves.
The husband really enjoyed the tart. Me? I'm not a big fan of fresh fruit but I loved, loved, loved the pastry crust with jam on top.
(As a group, us TWDer's have decided to stop posting Dorie's recipes since we think everyone should own a copy of her book. Luckily for you though, Dorie has already blogged about this one over on Serious Eats. And now you must go check out the other Tuesdays with Dorie blogs.)

BSU Catalog Home | Political Science Course Descriptions
Dr. Patrick Donnay (Coordinator; email@example.com), Dr. Thomas Beech
Political science is the study of political systems and how they function. It has its origins in the fourth century B.C., when Aristotle set out to classify governments. Today it encompasses four major focus areas: International Politics, including the behavior of countries, trade regimes, and theories of war; American Politics, including political parties, interest groups, and legislative, judicial, and executive powers; Comparative Politics, including the nature of democracy and comparison of parliamentary and other political systems; and Political Theory, including philosophical considerations such as what constitutes a good society.
Students of political science gain an understanding of the political nature of the contemporary world, from simple acts such as choosing products as consumers to the complexity of global politics in the information age. As governments and the private sectors of society become more intermingled, political scientists become more valued for their understanding of how both systems work and for their reasoning and analytical skills. Majors in political science are prepared for entry level positions in a variety of fields and for graduate study. Advanced degrees in political science offer the applied skills often necessary for professional advancement.
Note: Good writing and computer skills are essential to political scientists. Students are encouraged to develop their writing skills by taking ENGL 2152 Argument and Exposition, and their computer skills by taking CS 1107 Introduction to Computers.
See Section II, Enrollment for required high school preparationRecommended High School Courses
Students are encouraged to discuss with their advisor the option of a second major or minor that might strengthen or complement their major, e.g., Geography and Environmental Studies.
Transfer Students: At least one-third of the credits to be included in the major must be successfully completed at Bemidji State University.

Behind a 40-point explosion in the second half, Stepinac ran away from Canisius, 49-28, to win its second Catholic state football title in four years.
The state title game was played Saturday, Nov. 25 in West Seneca, N.Y.
"We are very proud of that accomplishment," said Stepinac Coach Mike O'Donnell. "This years state run was very special because no one expected it."
Stepinac lost its last regular season game before playoffs began. "It really forced the team to refocus," O'Donnell told Daily Voice. "We had to win the last three games on the road, each week in poor weather."
"We were losing each game but the team didn't panic," O'Donnell said. "They just kept working hard."
Stepinac senior Trill Williams scored seven touchdowns during the last three weeks, and according to O'Donnell, "made highlight play after highlight play."
Williams plans to play for Syracuse University's football team next fall.
Crusaders quarterback Michael Nicosia broke the high school's all-season yardage and touchdown records. Nicosia racked up more than 5,000 yards passing and 55 touchdowns in two years.

U.S. Geological Survey / AP
A satellite image provided by the U.S. Geological Survey shows a view from space of the city of Sioux Falls, S.D., as seen from the Landsat 8 satellite on Mar. 30, 2013.
By Dirk Lammers, Associated Press
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — A new satellite hovering nearly 450 miles above the Earth appears to working flawlessly as it embarks on a 10-year mission to document the planet's surface, scientists and engineers at the U.S. Geological Survey's Earth Resources Observation and Science Center said Monday.
Landsat 8 is sending more than 400 data-filled images per day back to the EROS center north of Sioux Falls, where they will be archived and made available for free download by scientists or anyone else who's interested.
The center's mission requires images to be publicly available within 48 hours of their capture, those most will be ready within 24 hours, said project scientist Tom Loveland.
The new orbiter has several advantages over its still-functioning predecessor Landsat 7, which captures just 250 images a day. Landsat 8 also boasts two new spectral bands, one to see deeper into oceans, lakes and rivers and another to detect cirrus clouds and correct for atmospheric effects, Loveland said.
The new satellite's infrared band is split into two, allowing for more accurate surface temperature readings, he added.
"It should really make a difference in our ability to map and characterize changes going on in the surface of the Earth," Loveland said.
NASA launched Landsat 8 into space in February. Since then, teams have been running it through a barrage of tests before placing the satellite into orbit 438 miles above the planet's surface.
"The spacecraft has been extremely healthy," said Jim Nelson, ground systems manager. "The instruments have performed really well."
The EROS Center, the main federal repository for satellite images, will officially take over the mission May 30 from NASA.
Since 1972, Landsat satellites have been continuously snapping pictures across the globe as part of a 40-year mission to document the planet.
Landsat 8, which is about the size of UPS truck with a 30-foot-long deployed sheet of solar panels, is stocked with a 10-year supply of fuel. It travels at a speed of 17,000 miles per hour.
Landsat 8 will work in tandem with Landsat 7, launched in 1999, to take pictures of each inch of the planet's surface every eight days. Landsat 7 continues to operate despite a faulty scan line corrector that leaves zigzag gaps in some images.

Jim Nelson, ground systems manager with the U.S. Geological Survey, shows a model of the Landsat 8 satellite at the USGS EROS Center near Sioux Falls, S.D.
Landsat 5, which dates back to 1984, worked decades past its expected mission end but began failing in November. Landsat 6 never reached orbit after its 1993 launch because of a ruptured manifold.
Nelson said the EROS Center has been preparing for the wave of new data, upgrading its ground station near Sioux Falls as well as partner facilities in Alaska and Norway.
It also overhauled its data processing and storage systems, "so we can get as much data as possible online for the users to get direct access to," Nelson said.
Loveland said there's a huge demand for the images in the scientific community, giving an example of a recent Brazilian Remote Sensing Symposium that drew more than 800 people looking to tap into the data.
"There's a great deal of planning going on from people ready to use the images," Loveland said.
The center used to charge for the images, but for years now, they've been free.
"When you put all this free stuff in universities, innovation happens," Loveland said.

NEW YORK (AP) — Television broadcasters face off at the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday with Aereo, a company that offers live TV over the Internet. The case hinges on whether the service constitutes a public performance in violation of copyright law.
Broadcasters want the service shut down. But Aereo argues that its service is legal because each subscriber is assigned an individual antenna to record and watch broadcasts on various gadgets for a monthly fee. Aereo says its service is similar to setting up an antenna and a digital video recorder at home. The only difference, the company says: All the equipment is housed at Aereo's data centers.
Cable and satellite TV companies typically pay broadcasters to include TV stations on customers' lineups. Broadcasters believe Aereo ought to as well, arguing that Aereo built the individual antennas specifically to skirt copyright law.
Millions of dollars are at stake: If people ditch cable service for Aereo, broadcasters would be able to charge cable companies less.
The case comes as people are cancelling pay-TV subscriptions in increasing numbers and turning to Internet services such as Netflix. A service that offers live television could make such cord cutting even more palatable. A study last year from GfK estimated that 19 percent of U.S. TV households had broadcast-only reception, up from 14 percent in 2010. Those figures include cord cutters and those who have never had cable, something Aereo says is common among those under 30.
Aereo founder and CEO Chet Kanojia spoke to The Associated Press before Tuesday's Supreme Court hearing. Questions and answers have been edited for length.
Q: Why are you confident about your prospects?
A: Nobody has disputed the idea that a consumer can have an antenna. Nobody disputes that a consumer can make personal recordings. The dispute seems to be about where the equipment can be installed.
Q: As a customer, I have a dedicated antenna that receives my signal. But when I record something, isn't that going on a group recorder, constituting a public performance?
A: But it's your unique file. So if 30,000 people in New York recorded a particular show, that's 30,000 unique copies that are different for each individual. The antenna is sitting dead until you log in and say 'I want to watch NBC.' That's when it first tunes into NBC.
Q: To what degree did you design everything — your marketing and the antennas — with a possible lawsuit in mind?
A: We expected controversy. We set out to build a highly, highly compliant legal company. We were proud of the fact that we hired the best possible lawyers. We had the best possible advisers.
Q: If you expand abroad, will you face these legal issues country by country?
A: That's why we haven't done anything yet. I don't think we understand enough. I think in Europe the situation is reasonably becoming clear. There have been some recent court cases around the remote DVRs and things like that which have gone the right way. The regulatory environment is a lot simpler in most of these countries because nobody objects to the idea of an antenna.
Q: You've said you have no Plan B should you lose. So is the idea that you turn out the lights and leave or would you try to evolve into something else?
A: The technology itself has tremendous value. The fact that we've created this cloud-based system at a cost point and it works is going to have a lot of value to a lot of people.

Recently I was testing that pygame still works with the python2.5 beta. When I was doing this, I had a chance to play around with python2.5 and all it's new goodness. Amongst the other good python2.5 features is that python is performing better.
Almost twice as fast a startup 'cold'.
This is because it uses half the number of syscalls as python2.4 does. 755 syscalls in 2.4 and 461 in 2.5. Still not quite as good as perl with 40ish syscalls, but a massive improvement none the less.
$ time python2.4 -c "print 'hello'"
real 0m0.923s
user 0m0.041s
sys 0m0.025s
$ time python2.5 -c "print 'hello'"
real 0m0.417s
user 0m0.043s
sys 0m0.021s
However compared to perl, python is still syscall heavy. Perl does around 50ish syscalls to start up.
Python2.5 also frees up more memory that it isn't using.
Python2.4 does not release all that much memory if you use up quite a lot. It holds onto it in it's memory pool as an optimisation. The idea is that it is quicker to reuse memory, than to rely on the operating systems memory management. Unfortunately, this can be *really* bad for long running processes, and on machines which need to share with other processes. ie webservers, games, gui apps.
Even though there could still be improvements, my tests with real world applications using 2.5 show a much better use of memory. It gives back most of what is used. However for best use of memory it is still a good idea to restart processes if you can.
Tuesday, July 04, 2006
python2.5. faster startup, better memory use, faster.

The Bauhaus movement is credited with leading the art, design and architecture revolution of the early 20th century, but its legacy may be stained with a copyright infringement tale.
The Bauhaus movement started with the Bauhaus school, a Germany-based institution that lasted from 1919 to 1931. Founded by Walter Gropius , a German architect, the Bauhaus school shifted locations throughout its lifespan – from Weimar to Dessau and later, Berlin – before political pressure from the Nazis shut down the school in 1931.
The school had a lasting influence on Western architecture, art, and design, and the Bauhaus movement is one that is widely studied by contemporary scholars and creators today. In its simplest form, the Bauhaus movement sought to combinedesignand industrialization, creating functional things that could be mass-produced for the betterment of society.
While its legacy is certainly incontestable, the Bauhaus movement's founder, Gropius, has some dubious skeletons in his closet when it comes to promoting and advancing the Bauhaus movement and its mission.
British-born artist

first came to the Bauhaus school with her husband, the artist Stella McCartney foldover Falabella shoulder bag Buy Newest oXuD9Nj
. The Bauhaus philosophy required anyone and everyone who was part of its circle to contribute in some way to the movement's purpose – for Moholy, a trained photographer, her contribution would be her startlingly beautiful work.
Moholy set about photographing the Bauhaus building, its students, and all of its contents. Moholy's images didn't focus solely on the architecture but rather offered a careful study of the people and ideas that prevailed at the Bauhaus school: Students in dark rooms and workshops, the furniture pieces in process, and the buildings that touted their singular Bauhaus style.
As Nazi Germany's encroachment loomed over freedom of expression – and particularly, over artists – the Bauhaus movement was slowly shut down. By 1933, just years after the school had shut down, Moholy and her husband had separated. Engaged in a relationship with a Communist party official, Moholy feared arrest or worse and fled the country immediately. She eventually settled in London, though most of her belongings – including the Bauhaus negatives – were left in the care of someone else. Notably, the negatives of the photographs Moholy had taken were in the care of the Bauhaus movement's founder, Walter Gropius.
Dead men are heavier than broken hearts.
"Most of the characters in this story are tough, many of them are nasty and some of them are both. Philip Marlowe, the private detective who is both the narrator and the chief character, is hard: he has to be hard to cope with the slimy racketeers who are preying on the Sternwood family. Nor do the Sternwoods themselves, particularly the two daughters, respond to gentle treatment. Spoiled is much too mild a term to describe these two young women. Marlowe is working for $25 a day and expenses and he earns every cent of it. Indeed, because of his loyalty to his employer, he passes up golden opportunities to make much more. Before the story is done Marlowe just misses being an eyewitness to two murders and by an even narrower margin misses being a victim. The language used in this book is often vile, at times so filthy that the publishers have been compelled to resort to the dash, a device seldom employed in these unsqueamish days. As a study in depravity, the story is excellent, with Marlowe standing out as almost the only fundamentally decent person in it."
– Isaac Anderson, The New York Times , February 12, 1939
It was a blonde. A blonde to make a bishop kick a hole in a stained-glass window.
"This is a tough one: superlatively tough, alcoholic, and, for all its wisecracks, ugly rather than humorous. Like many 'swift-moving' tales, it is sometimes confusing in its rapid succession of incidents which may or may not have an integral connection with the plot. And the actual mystery is not important. It isn't so difficult to guess what had become of the beautiful cabaret singer Velma. The identity of the unpleasing Lindsay Marriott's slayer has no pressing interest. The murder casually committed by that elemental giant Moose Malloy is only an episode to start the story going. No, the appeal of Farewell, My Lovely is in its toughness, which is extremely well done.
Jeanne Florian may know something or nothing about Velma, but Philip Marlowe's questioning of that gin-soaked old woman makes as sordid a bet as you're likely to be looking for. Beautiful Mrs. Grayle has a real place in the story, but it's the sense of evil all about her that gives you goose-flesh. And Amthor the 'psychic consultant' and Sonderberg the 'dope doctor' are lesser figures in a novel in which no detail is left undescribed.
But the story's ever-present theme is police corruption, seen in a murky variety. And several kinds of dreadfulness are handled with a grisly skill."

Ready to move on to some typography terminology? Let's go.
If you thought these two words were interchangeable, you're not alone. But they actually mean two different things.
Typographer, Nick Sherman, once used
Cheap Sale Hot Sale Dsquared2 Cool Girl cropped jeans Order Online Cheap Visit New Free Shipping Footlocker Shop Offer Cheap Price 9S9ivNjU
to explain the differences between the terms "typeface" and "font." He suggested comparing these typography terms to the musical terms "song" and "mp3." When you're explaining how much you enjoy a particular tune, you say, "I love this song!" You wouldn't say, "I love this mp3!" The song is the work of art, whereas an mp3 file is just the delivery mechanism.
The same rules apply in typography.You should use the word "typeface" when describing the creative work (i.e., what you see). This is a more abstract design term used when referring to the way a specific collection looks or feels. For example,Helvetica is a typeface.use the word "typeface" when describing the creative work (i.e., what you see).
If you're describing the physical embodiment of the collection of letters and characters, you should use the term "font." It refers to what you use -- whether that's a file on your computer or a case full of metal letters. This is the tangible representation of that collection of letters and characters. For example,Helvetica Bold and Helvetica Light Oblique are fonts.If you're describing the physical embodiment of the collection of letters and characters, you should use the term "font."
Here's how you could use these two terms in a sentence:
"Wow. The typeface you chose really pulls this design together."
"I'll change the font size to 12pt so it fits in the box."
I t's way easier to communicate with designers when you actually speak their language , which is why it's important to understand the anatomy of a typeface.
Each part of a letter has its own special term, similar to bones in a human body. Below, you'll see three diagrams that explain the makeup of individual letters, how these elements interact with each other, and how they sit on a line.
For example, let's takewith the word "Faulty" as it's shown in the picture below.
Here's how each of the terms here are defined:Baseline: Cap height: X-height: Serif: Descender:
Now, let's look at the word "flash":
Here's how these terms are defined:Ligature: Spine: Ascender:
Still with me?Just a few more here. Let's take a look at the word "Beef":Cross bar: Counter: Finial: Terminal
Good work. Now that you know the anatomy of letterforms, let's get into the terms related to spacing: kerning, tracking, leading, and hierarchy.
Protip: I also make sure there's not many icons on the desktop, I put them all in folders, and delete the shortcuts I never use.
Here's a convenient .png to use on your smartphone, if it doesn't have a fill color setting. Download it, then set it as background. (I've thrown in kinky pink too, as a bonus!)
This one might seem very straightforward, but it's incredible how many tabs occupy some people's browsers. I call this phenomenon Chronic Tab Pileup Syndrome (CTPS), which you can be diagnosed with if you have more than 8 tabs open on average.
Disabling the
on restart, resume where I left off
option in your browser will help against CTBS. Some general caution will do the rest.
Something else that I find distracting is the 'new tab' page, where a wall of all your most-visited websites is presented for you to endlessly move your cursor over while you decide which one to click next. Besides locking you into a certain range of websites, it's very distracting—I prefer a totally blank new tab page. For that, I use a plugin for Chrome called Empty New Tab Page .
In Safari it's as easy as going to

new tabs open with:
Empty Page
. In Firefox, type
in the address bar, search for
, click the preference, then change it from
. With IE, go to
control panel>delete a program
and click
Internet Explorer
You can try to resist the urge to visit
, but eventually them cute cats will get to you, and resisting will cost you willpower. So ultimately, you'll want to just blast all distractions out of the water. I use a great plugin for Chrome called
Rick Owens elongated longsleeve jumper Sale Discount Reliable Many Kinds Of Free Shipping High Quality Lr92LQ
. The Safari and Firefox equivalents would be Mindful Browsing and LeechBlock , respectively.
StayFocusd can be set to allow you a certain amount of time on the websites you block, but I just go all-in and block them entirely from 8AM to 6PM, every day of the week. This is what my settings (
StayFocusd>Settings>The Nuclear Option
) look like (don't forget to actually block sites first before nuking 'em):
I cannot tell you how happy I am with my quora-ebay-facebook-reddit-free days! It might feel radical at first—perhaps slightly exacerbated by the radiation sign—but it's easy to get used to.
Here comes the real fun stuff!

Smart Storage Ideas for Creative Supplies
This week I overhauled the closet in the studio. I've been on a mission to efficiently organize the huge amount of supplies my fiance and I have accumulated! After purging the things we don't need, we're now setting out to tame the ones we do. These are some of my favorite elements for keeping our studio manageable!
- Small shelves. I put them everywhere! They can be a decorative element as well, as this photo found on VisualizeUs demonstrates. In fact, I'm tempted to go tear all of the labels off of my acrylic paints and line them up right now! I think small shelves are done well when they're kept uniform (I know, I keep saying that) and put on a wall in a solid graphic way.
- Using large mason jars like these, seen on Tied Up With String, as storage for supplies gives them an air of specialness. I'm still insistent on uniform sizes and shape to give things a bit more order, but varying sizes and shapes can be fun, as well.
- Tinkerlab has hit the nail on the head here, as far as I'm concerned. Rachelle has a number of Ikea's Kassett boxes storing all of the random odds and ends that are typically in a craft room. I have begun converting my mis-matched storage boxes to Kassetts, but am about to shock my fiance, I'm sure, by bringing another large load of them home! Uniform and tidy looking boxes turn a closet full of otherwise chaotic supplies into a closet I'm not afraid to leave open once in a while.
- I love the storage options that an over the door shoe hanger can provide, and I love the idea of moving them into the studio! On Rol.vm, they've even allowed them to double as curtains. I love this!
- I love pencil cups. Right now, I especially love acrylic pencil cups. I am currently staring at six of them on my desk right now! I find that if I have colored pencils and pens out in front of me, I'm more prone to use them. This cup, from kikki.K is the perfect example of an unobtrusive and slick looking pencil holder.
- I inherited a vintage set of tiny drawers, like these ones on We Heart This, from my grandmother. She used to keep embroidery floss in it, but it serves me well holding all of the tiny tools that I use regularly. I have a drawer dedicated exclusively to cotton swabs, one to tweezers, one to glue, etc. I wasn't sure it would be useful until I actually got it set up. Now, it's sort of priceless to my work patterns at my desk!
- Home Made Simple does a good job of touting the wonders of the pegboard. They also do a good job of showing ways to make them look a little less utilitarian! I am looking for the perfect place for one in my studio.

EFUNK: The Album is not just the culmination of two musical lives, it's Soul Clap's statement about the sound of now. After years spent traveling planet earth with only a turntable as transportation and a crate of records as a guide, Soul Clap settled on Earth's tropical Art-Deco paradise of Miami as the perfect spot to build the EFUNK mothership. Limited to 13 songs over 45 minutes to fit on one 12 record and operate the mothership control panel, EFUNK: The Album also tells the story of Soul Clap's journey so far in a concise musical statement that could only be accomplished with the skills of master DJs.
Along their path returning from the outer-reaches to save dance music from the eclipse of darkness, Soul Clap's pop sensibility captured the hearts of many earthlings. A series of game changing edits, originals and remixes, a 2010 summer anthem 'Extravaganza' and edition of the legendary DJ Kicks series saw their reputation reach intergalactic levels. By harnessing the past, they look to the future and their timeless reworks and original formula has led to remixing legends Laid Back, Robert Owens and DJ Harvey as well as modern pop stars like Metronomy and Little Dragon. With summers spent touring the world and winters in Miami training at ping-pong and charting new musical territory, Soul Clap continues their quest to be the hardest working duo in the game.
Time stands still, but traverses great distances on the EFUNK transmission. Eli Goldstein AKA Elyte and Charles Levine AKA Cnyce have locked secrets from the outer realms into its design, only to be deciphered through careful attention to its soul. Help in the transformational process is obliged from their close knit Wolf + Lamb family, who have shared and shaped their journey into the consciousness of the terrestrial. The young Jules Born of Voices Of Black duo injects his raw funk stamp into 'Let's Groove On'. Baby Prince AKA Gadi Mizrahi of Wolf + Lamb features alongside other members of the family on 'The Clapping Song'. We were just hanging out in Charlie's bed when this one came together. We all just sang our own versions of the lyrics, says Eli who contributes the saxophone to the jam. Charlie also plays Kazoo, guitar and keys. Greg Paulus of No Regular Play beams in his magnificent trumpet on the serene closing broadcast, 'Islands in Space' as Charlie sings in cosmic frequencies and Eli's father Gary Goldstein strums the bass. Charlie's vocals play a big part of the appeal of the Soul Clap sound. Their 'Lonely C' anthem of last year made it onto BBC Radio 1 daytime and 6Music rotation and EFUNK's 'TroubleTroubleTrouble' shares a similar vibe – wholly connected and real.
Goddess deities lead EFUNK's transmission further into the light. Franceska unveils her Janet Jackson like powers on 'Take It Slow' and Mel Blatt of All Saints fame wrote and sang the lyrics for 'Ecstasy' - a typical slow jam from Soul Clap, defined as a record that pulls the body low to the floor and slows down the energy vibrations. Hijacked by a UFO to study the effects of the spotlight over a decade, Mel recently returned with divine powers. We met Mel at DC10 closing, explained Charlie, Her vibe is incredible and the fact that she's seen it through a pop stars eyes is an added bonus. Her lucid voice returns for 'Need Your Lovin'. Originally an edit Charlie created from an intense love for the original, when they shared it with Mel over stargazing, her mutual feelings led to them recording her vocal and replaying all the parts, becoming a reinvigorated fresh interpretation of the rave classic.
Further into un-charted territory 'The Alezby Inn' a cover of legendary west-coast electro don Egyptian Lover, features the humorous genius Genevan Heathen, who shares a Boston connection and unleashes an EFUNK masterpiece, a mischievious jam that speaks its own truth, its strange but I like it! 'Let It Go' was resurrected from an early demo Roldy Cezaire gave to the guys during their legendary midweek parties in Boston. It became a staple in their car cd player, never forgot it due to Roldy's vibe and innocence, and finally resurrected it for the EFUNK voyage. South African Lazarus Man's epic 'When The Soul Claps' is a staple accapella in Soul Clap performances since he shared it with them. The EFUNK formula beams a mysterious and powerful skyrocket to the stars.
EFUNK's intermissions flash back to the days of the duo's childhood in Boston, USA, where they were beamed to earth to begin their journey to master the strange new worlds of dance music. The last decades before the millennium still loom large in their style. As children of the 90s, the sound never leaves their crates and they traverse the globe resurrecting their memories in the form of the infamous 90s Jam events. Soul Clap's training goes beyond history lessons to mastering all the elements of the DJ: knowledge, mixing, programming, performance and experience. As true conquerers of all earth territory, their EFUNK mission shares a magnum of wisdom, its timeless frequencies bringing new levels of consciousness through time and space to be shared for many moons to come.

Scattered showers in the Southeast during the latter part of August may have been too little too late, as a portion of the parched region continues to be categorized as being in an exceptional drought.
Exceptional drought — the most severe of four drought levels — covered about 88,000 square miles, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor's final August report. This included about 75 percent of Alabama, 43 percent of Tennessee, 40 percent of Georgia and 10 percent of North Carolina, as well as smaller portions of Florida and South Carolina.
Despite scattered rains of 4 inches or more, much of the Southeast remained hot and dry and crops and pastureland continued to deteriorate. Topsoil was rated dry to very dry for 92 percent or more of Alabama, Kentucky and Tennessee, 85 percent or more of the Carolinas and Arkansas, and 75 percent of Georgia.
As for crop conditions, 53 percent or more of the corn was rated poor to very poor in Tennessee and North Carolina, and cotton was 58 percent or more poor to very poor in Alabama and Tennessee.
Many streams in the Southeast were in the lower 25 percentile. In Georgia, drought conditions worsened dramatically from the beginning through the end of August, according to David Stooksbury, state climatologist and University of Georgia professor of engineering and atmospheric sciences.
"Widespread triple-digit high temperatures and very little rainfall have caused soil moisture levels to plummet, stream flows to approach record lows, and groundwater and lake levels to drop sharply," said Stooksbury in late August.
Daily maximum temperatures did drop from the century mark after Aug. 24 across much of the Southeast, providing some respite from August's persistent extreme heat. Numerous temperature records were expected to be broken when the final August numbers were tallied. Birmingham, Ala., for example, which endured 14 days with triple-digit heat in August, is likely to end up with the hottest month on record. Oak trees on ridges are reportedly dying in the state, and 30 percent of long-term stream gauges were at all-time lows.
Stooksbury says the only exception to Georgia's worsening drought was the interior southeast portion of the state, where 30-day rainfall amounts were between 130 to 200 percent of normal.
In late August, of Georgia's 159 counties, drought conditions were classified as exceptional in 70, extreme in 40, severe in 15, moderate in 13 and mild in six, with 11 counties classified as abnormally dry. Four counties were classified as not being in a drought.
Drought conditions are expected to be "exceptional" about once every 100 years, "extreme" once in 50 years and "severe" once in 20 years. The classifications are based on many indicators, including rainfall since Oct. 1 and over the past 180, 90, 30 and 14 days, soil moisture, stream flows, groundwater levels and reservoir levels.
"Most stream flows across west and north Georgia are at or near record-low flows for late August," says Stooksbury. "The Chattooga River in the northeast mountains is approaching an all-time record flow, going back 67 years. In southwest Georgia, Spring Creek near Iron City has stopped flowing. Soil moisture loss to evaporation and plant use is now running between one-quarter and one-third inch per day, and groundwater levels remain low statewide for this time of year."
And Stooksbury doesn't see much relief in sight. "In August and September, our best hope for widespread drought relief is from tropical weather systems. Without these, we can expect the drought to worsen over the next two months," he says.
Weather experts at the National Weather Service's Climate Prediction Center agree with Stooksbury's gloomy prediction. The center says there's a good chance for below-normal rainfall or other precipitation for Alabama and other parts of the lower Southeast in November through January and in each three-month period starting with December, January, February and March.
If that happens, it'll mean a continuation of the current drought. The center expects a La Nina event, signaled by cooler-than-normal surface water in the eastern Pacific Ocean near the equator, to start affecting weather in the United States by November.
Generally, when La Nina appears, the Southeast tends to receive less-than-normal rainfall, in part because high pressure diverts storms farther north.
"Despite some improvement likely later in the season, drought should largely persist from Kentucky into western Tennessee, and could even expand westward into Missouri and Arkansas," according to a statement released by the center.

If only Phase or Hasselblad would licence the Foveon sensor technology fopr digital MF, and make a full frame 645 sensor in the quality, it would blow everyone's socks off, all over again.
Beautiful photographs! Were these taken hand-held? What is your experience with street/travel photography with this camera - do you need a tripod or can you work well without one?
Sigma is apparently using a FF prototype to do quality control evaluation of their newest lens lines, for example, that new 35mm f/1.4 FF lens.
Any more on that? A 30mp or thereabouts Foveon sensor coupled with a DP2M quality prime lens would be a dream come true. And a nighmare for medium format.
Not any more on that Sigma swapped the old Zeiss MTF machine with proprietary A1 MTF machine who run with the SD1 sensor. FF sensor in this is only pure speculation The truth is in my hands and my hands are on a magic keyboard who magically found that http://www.photoclubalpha.com/2012/09/24/sigmas-system-revolution/
Hi HulyssInteresting article - it's impressive what Sigma are doing. Looks like the latest generation of lenses will be excellent. I hope full frame Foveon follows!Quentin
hulyss,is there a work around for long exposures. I have not needed more than couple of seconds yet, but i might. is it possible to have more than 30 sec exposures? for landscapes it is very important feature.nandadevieast
Hi Hulyss, will interval timer help in obtaining longer exposure?don't know how this works, but read somewhere...
As you can see, there is an edit at the end of the article, and this edit is due to me, poor French photographer. I will now collaborate with SIGMA Japan only.
Now we're into Merril Porn ?I guess some do like to watch rather than be the shooter.

A glitch in the library's e-book system
Rachel Langlois of the New Hanover County Public Library writes that the library system is experiencing "technical difficulties" with the holds queue on its Axis 360 system, one of the online portals it uses to let library card-holders download e-books to their various devices. (As a devout Luddite, I have to shiver with thrills. "Technical difficulties …" It reminds me of black-and-white television back in the 1950s.) Seriously, users cannot retrieve e-books they tried to check out from their hold… Read More »

JoannaC necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 32 diseños de 9 diseñadores freelance.
Joanna Conti
I am preparing to run for County Executive in Anne Arundel County
Voters in Maryland
Create a simple, but striking logo for a political campaign that can be used on the web site and for bumper stickers and yard signs.
The name "Joanna Conti" needs to pop and be easily readable from a distance. "County Executive" needs to be shown in smaller type. The statement "Bringing best business practices to Anne Arundel County" needs to be included in a way that the logo is usable with and without the statement (i.e., the statement could be below the other elements, off to the side, etc.)
The logo should be red, white and blue. I like curviness. If you decide to include an abstract design, it could play on any of the following aspects of Anne Arundel County:
• We are located on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay
• Annapolis (in Anne Arundel County) is the sailing capital of the U.S.
• Annapolis is the capital of Maryland and was actually the first capital of the United States
The winner will need to provide the logo in all file formats including vector files (e.g.,eps) so that the logo may be used in print work.
If you check out my previous contest, you will see that I give lots of quick feedback. Thank you very much for your hard work and creativity, and I'm sorry for the shortened contest timeframe!

NEW YORK (AP) — A former newsman who worked for The Associated Press for 39 years has died in New York. Bruce Hodgman was 76.
His wife, Marion Hodgman, says he died Friday at a hospital 18 months after he was diagnosed with cancer.
Hodgman began his AP career in 1962 in Hartford, Connecticut, as a capitol correspondent, sending reports by teletype. He transferred to AP headquarters in New York three years later, working as an editor and supervisor until his 2001 retirement.
Retired managing editor Darrell Christian says Hodgman had unswerving dedication and a steady news sense and was quick with a kind word and a helping hand.
Hodgman also is survived by three children and four grandchildren. A funeral is set for Thursday at New Utrecht Reformed Church in Brooklyn.

A Georgia man has died after something went wrong while kayaking Saturday afternoon in Ponce de Leon Inlet, officials say.
Antonio M. Williams, 33, from Pooler, Ga., died after apparently suffering some kind of medical emergency while kayaking Saturday afternoon in Ponce de Leon Inlet.
Ponce Inlet police released the man's name Sunday. According to Lt. Max Binz with the Ponce Inlet Police Department, an autopsy will be performed Monday to determine exactly how Williams died.
The Florida Highway Patrol reported the fatality shortly after 4:30 p.m Saturday.
Nik Foster, owner of Sea Tow Daytona, said one of his captains was putting a boat away at the Lighthouse Boatyard & Marina in Ponce Inlet when he heard screams. The captain found five kayakers near the marina and one of them needed emergency medical attention.
"The kayakers pulled him out, but they were screaming that they needed help," Foster said.
The captain and a person from the marina pulled the man onto the Sea Tow boat and took him to the Coast Guard station in New Smyrna Beach, Foster said.
In the call to the Coast Guard, the dispatchers reported the man was having a seizure while on board the boat before he stopped breathing.
CPR was administered for nearly 30 minutes but Williams didn't make it, Foster said.
