Economic Calendar | Good news for sellers of the pound sterling and the yen!
It is the middle of the week and we have some really intriguing things happening on the economic calendar on Wednesday. So sit back, relax, and read on. It would appear that the pound sterling will see a slight negative trend today, as its economic calendar indicators seem to be on the decline. The number of unemployed claimants is on the rise, while the average earnings of UK citizens are expected to drop somewhat, which could all lead to a bearish day for the GBP, favoring sellers. On the other hand, it looks like it could be a good day for the USD. Although the number of building permits is on the decline in the U.S., housing starts, which indicate the amount of new single-family homes and buildings, is expected to be on the rise, alongside industrial production, which is expected to rise a full percent. Even the capacity utilization of U.S. industry is expected to rise somewhat, and this, coupled with the earlier indicators, suggests that the dollar will see a bullish Wednesday. Lastly, it seems that the Japanese yen will see a slight slump in its value today. Although imports seem to be on the rise, exports and the merchandise trade balance total seem to be falling, which could give us a sign that the yen will not be in the black by the time the markets close.

3 Useful Tips to Learn Italian Fast
Learning Italian: The Path of Least Resistance
While you can't learn Italian overnight, you can learn Italian fast. A sensible way to approach it is to use a mix of methods that is the least difficult for you. Probably you will need to try out a number of programs or strategies before you can find the one that gets results for you. Whichever method you select for learning, you ought to take it one step at a time, and don't count on becoming fluent in Italian overnight.
Here are 3 approaches for quickly learning Italian that I've gathered. Give each one of the tactics a try for at the least 2-3 weeks to see whether it's helping you out.
Meet Native Italian Online
The world wide web offers you a range of useful resources to learn Italian fast. Apart from the great many online language programs to choose from, another thing you should do is search for a native speaker to keep in touch with. It's likely that you'll be able to meet some Italians online who wish to enhance their English skills, and you may help each other free of charge.
In addition to sending instant messages and emails, you can speak with the person through the use of Skype or a similar software which allows you to talk to people around the globe very cheaply. Also you can watch out for online forums and chat rooms where people speak in Italian. Make the most of the advances in this new technology, as it provides you with valuable ways to learn Italian and meet up with native speakers on the internet.
Blend into Local Italian Communities
Maybe you cannot travel to Italy personally, you can visit local areas where Italian is spoken so that it is easier for you to learn it. There are plenty of communities in the USA, Europe along with other nations where Italians live. Whenever you spend some time in these communities you will be close to the language and can practice it.
You can locate stores and eateries owned or operated by Italian people as well as Italian language newspapers and periodicals. Merely listening to people talk Italian each and every day is helpful. Therefore for those who live near an Italian community, make sure you visit it as often as possible.
Attend Adult Education Class
Signing up for an adult education class is a great way for learning Italian, or perhaps get an introduction to it. Plenty of community colleges and other places where adults can take a whole lot of classes have language instruction and Italian has become very popular. The courses are typically in the evening since they are for people who work in the daytime.
Despite the fact that you can get lot of materials from an audio or online program, a classroom environment permits you to interact with other students and speak the language to them. The teacher can also let you know what you are saying wrong. Instant feedback is the major advantage of classroom learning thing most independent study tools lack, even the best ones.
A class also makes you study and gives you a physical location to be in. This can be a great motivator by itself. More often than not when you make an effort to learn Italian on your own, you lose the desire to complete the course. Whereas a class on the other hand will allow you to focus more. The friendly competition amongst the classmates will also spur you on.
In conclusion, learning Italian are often very gratifying. Learning a new language provides your mind the chance to think in fresh ways, and it exposes you to another culture. Once you begin learning Italian, keep these 3 tips in mind. So long as you plan to study regularly, you will notice that your abilities in speaking and understanding Italian are certain to get better.

Aref Alsouqi is a Cisco network and security engineer with 16 years' experience who lives in Italy, where he works as an IT consultant for his small company. Aref is the man of "Hmm, what if I do that instead…? Let me try to change that and see what happens…!! Why is that working that way and not the other?!!" Aref spends his days and nights digging deep and immersing himself into Cisco technologies. As well as being a Cisco fan, he also works with other technologies, like Windows and Linux servers, Mac OS X, VMware, and Exchange servers. Aref considers himself a troubleshooter, and VPN troubleshooting is one of his favorite things to do. He studied on his own and gained experience in his own small lab with real Cisco devices.
Aref really enjoys working in the IT field, especially with Cisco technologies, and he always tried to convince his customers to replace their non-Cisco devices with Cisco ones! He has worked, and provided support, for customers in many countries around the world, including the USA, UK, Italy, Germany, Dubai, Sweden, Jordan. He has also provided technical solutions to Internet Service Providers and telecommunication companies over the world. Typically he used remote technical support sessions to accomplish his job. Recently he moved on to work in different multi-national global companies in the network security teams.
Aref is always an active member on CLN (though he may be a little quieter during his final preparation for Cisco exams!) and he won the CLN Spotlight Award on May 2014. He enjoys participating and giving support on CLN and he considers that an important part of his continuing learning as well. Aref believes that CLN is an important technical and professional resource for all IT technicians since it has a lot of very well qualified people from all over the world. He also believes in sharing his IT experience with the others and learning from them at the same time as well.
Aref started his journey toward his CCIE Security exams. After that he will be working toward his CCDE. He is looking forward to mastering IPv6, FirePOWER, ISE, TrustSec and MPLS. Aref believes that he won't ever be finished with learning about technology as there are always new things to learn. He also believes that a lot of undocumented things are learnt only by sharing expertise with others and by building scenarios in lab environments. His dream is to reach a master level of expertise and knowledge within Cisco! When Aref has free time, he enjoys swimming and traveling to discover and explore the beautiful world, people and their culture.
I started out back in the nineties as a desktop guy; back then that was how it went, and graduated into networking operating systems from there. Cisco came into my work life about the mid 2000's as part of a district wide upgrade and I never looked back. The certification pieces grew from that exploration, as well as a desire to get a stamp of approval on the knowledge I was gaining.
I've worked on networks large and small since but always with a keen eye towards keeping aligned with a Cisco path.
The Cisco Learning Network became an outgrowth of that. I found CLN to be a perfect forum, what with the wealth of knowledge that seemed to be constantly waiting in the wings, and the networking rock stars that would pop in from time to time. At first I was hesitant to chime in, answer questions, etc, but after a while that became more comfortable as I became more comfortable, and I found I had something to share from time to time.
I love movies and music and I am also an avid chess player.
I keep a blog on my progress towards CCIE and also have a Youtube channel mostly geared towards certification.
Chandan Singh Takuli is a (CCIE) Voice #41344. He is also a Cisco Designated VIP of 2014 for the Cisco Learning Network and a Community Spotlight Award Winner for August 2013 – October 2013. He also holds his Juniper Certification in JNCIA-JUNOS & JNCIS-ENT. His work experiences include Managing & Maintaining the PepsiCo India networks across India with PepsiCo WAN connectivity, where he also Received Star Performer of The Year Award 2011-12. His other job roles also include HCL Infosystem Ltd as Network Engineer *** Team Lead for National Informatics Centre (India), and he holds a Certification in Linux for RHCE Module 033 & 133
During his early years, after earning his B.Tech in Computer Science, Chandan was inspired by a CCIE to work towards his own certification. This is when his future course of action became clear. While incorporating an absolute method to reach his goal, and finding an approach for himself, he spent countless hours studying, researching and pondering, which led him to leave his job to devote his time more fully to preparing for his CCIE voice. "Everything is possible when you fuel yourself with curiosity of "why's and what's" he says. "Many doubts will arise as you work towards your goal, but that should only inspire you to further research. Networking can be learned & excelled by any individual with the right amount of fire and passion."
As a proactive and a contributing member of the Cisco Learning Network, he dedicates a portion of his time to making positive contributions. As for his future ventures, his next step would be to attain his CCIE R&S, amongst others. As SDN is making a bigger place in a Network Engineer's life, he is also looking forward to going deeper into programming as he has experience as a C/C++ programmer. Chandan is located In India. (UTC+05:30).
Daniel Larsson is a Senior IT-consultant within a small group of IT-specialists that work with IT-Infrastructure projects. He spends his days working with complex projects that involve looking at the IT-Infrastructure architecture as well as the underlying network that taps into it. He grew up during the years when IT was becoming a major profession and during this time he developed programming skills. He also started working with IT early on as a programmer at the age of 16.
Then he had to experience the "IT-Bubble" and during this time he decided to try something else and started to work with electronics & hardware engineering. Eventually he found his way back to IT and networking again around 2010. He holds a degree in Information Technology Engineering, and it was during his University time that he came in contact with Cisco Equipment "for real" and started to work towards obtaining his CCNA via the Cisco Networking Academy-program.
He kept studying and quickly obtained his CCNP & CCDA and during his CCIE-studies he's been known to scavenge books from all the Cisco Certification Tracks available. He's knowledge-thirsty and likes to read technical books on new topics, even though he actively denies it among his friends - it's his fetish. He's currently pursuing a lot of certifications, but his main focus is the CCIE R&S.
He is actively participating in discussions at Cisco Learning Network that involve helping other students achieve their first Cisco-certification and he often tries to give helpful career advice - or in any other way give his objective opinion about related topics. He strongly believes in that sharing knowledge with other people is the key to success. He would like to someday be more actively involved in teaching other students in a class.
Working with IT is a demanding business so during his spare time he likes to "disconnect" and watch movies, take a walk, spend time with family, play fisbee-g olf and go fishing.
Daniel Dib, CCIE #37149, CCDE #20160011, is a Senior Network Architect at Conscia Netsafe. He works with creating scalable, modular and highly available network designs that meet business needs. Daniel started out in implementation and operations and got his CCIE in 2012. In May 2016 he became the second person in Sweden to get CCDE certified.
He often acts as a subject matter expert for his customers with deep expertise in routing, switching, multicast and fast convergence. He is an active person in the networking community and believes in helping people reach their full potential. He writes technical articles, blogs and holds member led study session for the members of the Cisco Learning Network.
In his spare time he enjoys the company of his two children and his wife. He likes to work out and is a big sports fan. Daniel lives in Sweden and is located in UTC+1 time zone.
My IT story began when I was in 6th grade working learning HTML and Web Design for the first time. It was at that point I knew my future would be in computers, just not sure what exactly I would do.
It wasn't until I reached College at Jacksonville University, pursuing a degree in Computer Science, that I found my niche, Network Engineering. I had heard my father talking about Cisco Certifications at some point in the past and was curious to find out what it was all about. I saw the video from Jeremy at CBT nuggets on ICND1 for the first time and I guess you could say fell in love with Networking. I had no idea how much went into sending information from one computer to another in a timely fashion. The whole thing fascinated me.
I powered through ICND1 and ICND2 during college graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science and a CCNA. I was fortunate enough have been offered a job at the place I innterned as their Network Engineer. There is nothing like that shock of your first networking job after achieving CCNA. This motivated me to keep going with my studies finally putting the pin in my CCNP certification for R&S earlier last year.
In my spare time I enjoy Classical Music, Audio Engineering, Video Production, Dance (not that good yet but working on it) and more.
I've always had an insatiable curiosity to know how things work and what can I do to improve them. Growing up, I was always breaking stuff and asking my parents "why?", they even bought me a book called "The Why of Things" – because I was asking too many questions. So I broke and repaired my computer several times just to know how it was working, what was inside. When I was at the university, a friend told me about studying in a Cisco Academy, that networking was amazing, but I didn't know how cool it would be. I started as an Academy Student, then became an Instructor, playing with switches and making jokes with my students.
Eventually, realized that CCNA was not enough, that I wanted to know more. I started to make personal goals, most of them big goals, but I divided them into smaller, achievable goals, where every triumph is a joyful checkpoint. Got CCNA Security, CCDA, CCNP R&S and CCDP. And, now pursuing CCDE! Yeah, its awesome to know how things work and how you can play with them - and being certified for doing that is even better! Nothing of this could be possible without support of my friends, family, CLN and my co-workers - I have learned A LOT from all of them!
CLN is full of amazing people ready to give you a hand and guide you without asking something in return. When someone explains something to someone else, you can follow the thread and learn things right along with them. It's a win-win situation! This is a BIG family and always waiting for you to ask: "What's next?"
Currently I am working as a network engineer at IBM (since 2016), and our team supports a client with a challenging transition project involving massive migrations and consolidations of DCs. My daily responsibilities include working with Nexus platforms and DC technologies in ACI and non-ACI environments mixed together, along with Load Balancers and some other devices. We support an environment that always needs more and more integration, which can be a challenge to accomplish sometimes.
I currently live at Brno, Czech Republic, I'm a latin guy that just turned 25 years old on December 31st, trying a new city and a new life. In my free time I try to learn new stuff, support the staff of my university in Caracas with networking advice, also try to update my blog, go out with some friends that I've met here, watch series, anime and movies I can find. I am trying to improve my Czech too, and that's a big challenge, indeed.
I believe it's important to make an impact in peoples' lives and make a difference wherever you are, whatever you do. Think different, be curious, don't be afraid of being yourself, stand in front of the crowd, learn as much as you can, and "pass the ball" as I tell to my students, to help another player to go onto the field.

Mark Holm is a Network Consultant with many different areas of work, covering anything from basic office LANs to large-scale enterprise data centers and service provider networks. He is a 3xCCIE: R&S, SP & DC (#34763) and CCDE #20160020. At work, he spends his time doing network design, implementation, troubleshooting and network architecture for clients. He is often seen hanging around at Cisco Learning Network to assist other candidates in reaching their goals by participating in discussions and writing technical documents. He really enjoys the time he spends there, and finds it extremely rewarding as it helps him stay sharp on all the small details of networking technologies and terminologies that are easily (and quite often) forgotten. Always seeking to extend his knowledge, chances are that he will pursue even more certifications in the future. Learning new technologies and getting into new areas of work is simply a big driver for him. He advocates for SDN (ACI in particular) because he finds it is a technology that is cool to work with and that it provides new exiting possibilities that have been difficult to achieve with classic networks.
His spare time (he actually does have some) is spent working out, playing online games, photographing and enjoying life in general. He is a tech aficionado and gadget freak, both of which requires some time to keep up at especially finding the next gadget to buy can be (and often is) a time-consuming process.
He lives in Denmark and is as such most active during the day time of the CET time zone.

Milan Rai is from Nepal and started his career as a Desktop Support Technician for a small computer shop. Graduating in management, but with an interest to learn about networking, he enrolled in studies for CCNA. Milan now holds global certifications in MCSE, CCNA & CCNP R&S. Right now, he is based in Australia, and he works for one of Australia's best women's fashion brand as a head of IT department.
After beginning his career in networking, he came to realize that the condition of IT in Nepal often made it hard to get good career counseling and support. Knowing this, he began Career Counseling sessions to talk about the importance of IT careers for school and college students. "Motivating youth towards the IT profession can bring big development for the nation", is one of the quotes that he loves to use as a motivational speaker. And his dream is to set up a perfect networking platform for the upcoming generation in Nepal.
Milan was a Cisco Learning Network Spotlight Award Winner in November 2013 for being an active member of the community. He is currently involved as Community Administrator of the Nepal Cisco User Group (NCUG), an open community for Cisco Certification students from Nepal. Everyday lots of student approach him with theirs lots of question regarding Cisco certification and Milan gives his best career counseling to them. Milan is one of the recipient of Cisco Global Cybersecurity Scholarships so he is eagerly waiting for his class to commence. Cyber security being one of the favorite topic for him, he wants to start his career in Cyber security and wants to educate normal users and prepare them as one of the best human firewalls.
Ever since I was 7 I knew that I wanted to be in IT but it wasn't until high school that I discovered Cisco and the world of Networking that I knew exactly what I wanted to do. The school I went to was a registered Netacad and allowed students to take the CCNA as a course however being young and naive I never actually took the exam. Between high school and actually getting my CCNA I had several IT jobs in various fields of IT ranging from help desk to administering Windows and Linux Servers and also Voice services however I am currently working as a Network Engineer for a State Government organisation which allows me to get my hands on some pretty cool stuff.
After 10 years of putting off my CCNA I was encouraged by some work colleagues to just go for it. So I did and obtained my CCNA in R&S which was followed by my CCNP in R&S 11 months later. I have also obtained my CCNA SP and am currently working towards the CCNA Wireless and CCDA with plans to continue on to CCDP, and one day the all mighty coveted CCIE in R&S.
My spare time is taken up by my 4 kids, camping, fishing, Martial Arts, Studying and Labbing for my next exam and the CLN forum. I find the CLN forum is not only such a great place to meet all kinds of people from all different backgrounds but to learn from those very same people as well.
After graduating college, I ended up picking graphics design as a career choice. However I soon found myself mystified with the magical world of internetworking on many occasions. I did a little looking around and happened to stumble upon Cisco Learning Network. Studying for the Cisco Certification matched both my desire and priorities. It seemed an obvious choice from there on for me to get fully involved in the networking world. Currently, I hold my CCNP in R&S and am working towards CCIE R&S.
Since then I have dedicated myself entirely to studies. I'm highly motivated and also enjoy looking into other tracks specifically Data Center and Design to upgrade my skills. I believe the most important thing I have learned over the course of my studies is one shouldn't expect to have a complete, revealed understanding of anything at once. Each new concept learned is a building block towards full understanding. In this way, looking into the design and data center track has given me a better perspective and provided deeper understanding for various concepts relating to R&S and has been rewarding. I believe combining this concept along with critical thinking, reasoned arguments, and logic is the most efficient way to understand technology.
Cisco Learning Network is a repository of valuable technical knowledge. There are some amazing members here who post their applied knowledge. Learning from their experiences has helped me progress in my studies and will help all who seek answers to their questions while studying.
During my spare time, I catch up on TV shows, music, and movies. I have a strong passion for all animals and their welfare. I also enjoy browsing the support community forums and read responses on various subjects by the professionals there as well.
Salman Asadullah is a former Cisco Distinguished Engineer and Cisco Live Hall of Fame Distinguished Speaker. Over the years, he has had a valuable presence in not just the Cisco Learning Network community, but also the Cisco certifications community as a whole. As an active CCIE for 20+ years, he has proctored CCIE exams, developed and delivered multiple online and video-recorded trainings and webinars, and is a member of several advisory, definition, and development teams for multiple Cisco CCIE certification tracks and exams, most recently including the Network Programmability Specialist certification track. Salman led the development of Cisco's first SDN certification course, Introducing Cisco Network Programmability Fundamentals, and also recorded the first session of our SDN and Network Programmability Basics series.
After 22 years working at Cisco, Salman recently joined the leadership team at NetNuvem, a Systems & Software Integrator. As a CTO & VP Engineering, he leads their global cross-architecture, multi-vendor and open-source technology solutions while working closely with their key customers and partners.
"Software, APIs, and Multi-vendor and OpenSource knowledge are common themes across key technology transitions," says Salman Asadullah, Cisco VIP and CTO & VP Engineering at NetNuvem. "As we focus more on building systems which truly address business outcomes, we will see a proliferation of APIs and a need to understand software and automation. An effective 'hybrid' engineer must have both solid networking skills as well as an understanding of programming and OpenSource technologies and more. I'm humbled by the Cisco VIP recognition, and see it as a great platform to continue promoting learning and development of diverse group of next-gen 'hybrid' engineers."
I started my computer education and moved from BASIC and then Pascal programming in my teen years to professional IT career as a PC assembly technician. But it was when I discovered networking, I decided that this is what I want to excel in. I started playing with Cisco topologies in GNS3 instead of computer games and watching Wireshark captures instead of cartoons. In 2011 I finally made a "leap of faith" and went into a networking-only role. I've never regretted it and always found it challenging, interesting and rewarding.
I like spending my time reading posts on CLN, trying to help other people understand technology and solve entertaining challenges that other members design and publish.
I've been registered on CLN since 2010, but started actively participating more recently. And I've found that giving something to the community has benefitted me too, every single time.

How To Be Prepared For Natural Weather Disasters Part 4
Here Are Steps Homeowners Can Take:
- Trash cans, fallen tree limbs, barbecue grills, lawn furniture and other items can become dangerous missiles in a violent wind. Keep the lawn free of fallen limbs, and prune dead or rotten branches (or hire an arborist to do it for you). Bolt grills and lawn furniture to decks or patios or secure them to ground anchors with chain or cable. Secure trash cans with chain or cable to ground anchors or pressure-treated wooden posts sunk into the ground. Tie the trash-can lid to the can with chain or cable.
- Fasten outbuildings and sheds to the ground with the straps and ground anchors used to stabilize mobile homes.
- When planting trees, site them so that they're at least as far from the house as their mature height.
Hire an arborist to remove large trees that could fall on your house. You may be able to safely remove small trees yourself.
- Reinforce double entry doors. Double doors should be secured with slide bolts at the top and bottom of the inactive door and with a heavy-duty deadbolt: The bolts supplied with such doors aren't usually strong enough to prevent failure in high winds. You should also replace the door's hinge-attachment screws with longer ones that will extend more deeply into the doors and the door frame.
- Put up storm shutters or create plywood covers to protect windows. Storm shutters are much faster to put into operation, all you do is close and fasten them, but they're much more expensive than plywood covers. Pieces of 1/2-inch to 5/8-inch marine plywood should be cut large enough to cover the entire window and frame. Drill holes for screws or lag bolts around the perimeter of each cover, approximately every 18 inches. The bolts should be long enough to reach the wall studs around the window. Store plywood covers and fasteners where they're easy to get to, and label each cover so you know which one goes with which window. If your doors have glass panels, create covers to protect the doors too.
- Garage doors are vulnerable to damage from tornadoes and hurricanes, and could be blown in by violent winds. If you live in a susceptible area, have them reinforced by a door systems technician.
- Make sure the roof sheathing, the plywood or wooden boards nailed to the trusses or rafters and underneath the roofing materials, is secure. If most of the nails used to attach the sheathing missed the rafters, have a contractor remedy the situation.
- The end gables (side walls of the roof) are vulnerable in violent storms. They can be shored up by bracing the gables with 2-inch x 4-inch boards in an X pattern. If the end gables haven't been braced, hire a contractor to do the job.
- To further protect your home, consider having the roof fastened to the walls with hurricane straps. Call your building department to ask whether hurricane straps are recommended in your area. If so, hire a contractor to take care of it.

Gloomy universe and icy chilled sounds would be too trivial to sum up Näo. Since more than 4 years and the release of their first eponymous album in 2011 Näo has elaborated, polished and enhanced their realm. The French band from Besançon pursue their search of new sounds, emphasizing the sharp and straightforward aspect of their songs. They echo Indi and Electronic with a touch of new sounds, questioning those genres and making them speak in a new light. Their arrangements are sheared in turns of emotion, by the lively bursts of drums and guitar. Pierre-André Pernin, original member and founder of the band is from now on not alone to make artistic choices. In 2011 Jordan Daverio and Thibault Fellmann joined him to set up the album, III, released in 2014. The arrival of this album was also an opportunity for the band to deeply work on complementary aspects of sounds. On stage Näo has a relentless drive to transcribe a sonorous but also visual atmosphere.
The three musicians are eager to experiment with sounds that urge on your senses, this very one that reverberate through to your stomach. This also comes out in their new stagecraft proposition. That's how video material became a member of the band in its own right constituting a complete visual and audio performance offered to the audience. Considered as a source of light, video isn't pulled apart from the writing of the show regarding traditional lightnings. They can successively appear together, try to dominate each other, submit, disappear and reappear…

For all of the planning and preparation that is now commonplace in modern cycling, it is still a rare occurrence for teams to all stay in the same hotel as one another during a race.
Riders can easily be spread around a region – more often than not in hotels of varying quality – at events, but at the Challenge Majorca series, this is indeed the case.
The four-day race is in a select club alongside the Tours of Qatar, Oman and Down Under, with all personnel working on the event also based in the central hub.
Futhermore, the Iberostar Playa de Muro is still open to the public for the duration of the race, giving cycling enthusiasts and autograph hunters the chance to indulge their hobbies.
Equally as impressive is that, through the ever-expanding cycling holidays range it offers, the hotel can confidently say you have a chance to train both like and with the professionals.
Dean Downing and Anthony McCrossan outside the Iberostar Playa de Muro
Situated near Alcudia, the resort is attracting an increasing number of British riders. For example, Madison-Genesis, stayed on to hold its first training camp there after racing in Challenge Majorca.
Lotto-Belisol, Lampre-Merida, Katusha, Orica-GreenEdge and Team IAM have all previously based themselves there to prepare for a season of competition, too.
The professionals don't have to worry about the costs of transporting bikes to the hotel, and amateurs don't either.
Available for hire at the hotel are Ultegra-equipped carbon race bikes, in a varying range of sizes. You don't even need to bring your pedals – that's catered for too.
Up to 2,000 bikes are on site and ready to be rented. Cyclists amount to one in three of the hotel's guests, and between 85 and 90 per cent of those arrive without their bike.
Bikes aplenty for hire
The hotel boasts the biggest Jacuzzi in Majorca as well as ice baths, a 50-metre indoor swimming pool, sauna and steam room. A larger, outdoor pool is available, too.
The indoor pool
From February 2014, Iberostar are hopeful of having a direct partnership with budget airline Jet2com to enable more British riders to head out to the resort for a week or so.
Sounds expensive? At this time of year, it isn't. Prices per night start around £25 for bed and breakfast.
Majorca's roads are begging to be ridden by cyclists. Few places are better equipped to welcome them when they return from their rides.

With everything from on-site mechanics to a bike wash area, the hotel is well equipped to cater for cyclists' needs.

The unconditional love one experiences from dogs instills joy, fun, silliness, and healing. Even the conditional love from cats can be a salve for the soul. Having pets in our life growing up (two dogs, three cats) taught us patience, consideration, compassion (thunder storm freak outs!), and what it means to be responsible for something that's depending on you, a life that's in your hands. Animals are so easily abused, neglected, and abandoned; having the "job" of taking care of an animal enriches our lives in innumerable ways.
The Pasadena Humane Society and SPCA has launched it's Just for Kids program "Kids for Animals." This is for children and teenagers 18 years old and under to experience the gamut of animal care. Programs include "Be a Responsible Pet Guardian," "Cats 101," and "Dog Training Basics." Other programs teach about reptiles, birds, and how kids can help shelter animals.
PHS has created the "Kids for Animals Handbook," which may be downloaded for free and provides ideas of how to help animals: organize a donation drive, make toys for shelter animals, or complete a service project. Projects could be an organized car wash, dance marathon, or movie night where the proceeds benefit PHS or are used to purchase items from PHS's wish list. With the help of PHS staff, kids can organize a pet adoption event with the Wiggle Waggle Wagon or offer to do chores—lawn mowing, babysitting, dog walking—in exchange for donations to PHS.
PHS has Sunday Morning Helpers where kids join part the cleaning crew, and also make cat, dog, or rabbit toys or beds for the shelter animals. Kids ages 6-14 must be accompanied by an adult, while those 15 and older may volunteer on their own. Sign up for Sunday Morning Helpers here.
The "Kids for Animals Handbook" explains that volunteers are needed to work at PHS's mobile vaccine clinics for set up and tear down, handing out information, making ID tags, and making favors for give-away bags. Instructions are provided for making toys for shelter pets, such as white socks filled with stuffing and catnip, and Kids for Animals members can schedule a tour of the facility for yourself or a group, and all volunteer hours can go towards credit for a school's community service requirements. For older children, volunteering at PHS could include working in the offices and assisting with fundraising and outreach events.
The Kids for Animals Pledge
I pledge to:
—Work hard and give time to animals at the Pasadena Humane Society & SPCA
—Be respectful and kind to all animals
—Complete at least one service project a year
—Share my experiences about PHS with others
Other opportunities for children:
Animal Adventures: Monthly programs to learn about animals, 1-2:30 p.m.; $20 per session.
Critter Camp: Five week-long sessions during the summer for kids 9-12. This is a hands on program with group dog walks, cat playtime, bunny runs, scavenger hunts, and craft activities. Beginning July 10. Last week-long session begins August 7. Hours: 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Cost: $250.

I have got an unusual fashion dilemma. Being in the 24th week of my pregnancy, my bump is now noticeable but I am still pretty much able to see myself. I mean I can see myself down there, the bump didn't make the bottom half of my body invisible yet. I am aware that being pregnant and giving birth means my body will be seen more than usually. So I wonder: what is the appropriate hair style in my pubic area? Or, to be specific, at what age is a landing strip inappropriate? I started thinking about it few weeks ago, while shaving, thinking how long will I be able to see what I am doing? And then it dawned on me: very soon I will be pretty much on display. Time to think about my image...
While growing up it was clear that past thirty a woman (obviously a married mother of a family) would not be expect to wear short skirts, even jeans may be considered a little bit too much, to make it short a woman over thirty was settled and should look the part.I suppose she wouldn't even consider touching the pubic hair. When I was little girl grandmothers looked like grandmothers and mums looked like mums. Basically, women were attractive before marriage, than they had kids and their looks went away, making way to the practical things in life. I grew up in a small town in the continental Europe but I believe England wasn't too different. I am thirty five now, expecting my first baby. I married when I was thirty two. It is hard to compare myself with my mother because I remember celebrating her thirtieth birthday with her. She grew up in the times when people married much younger and had families sooner. They didn't have contraception, careers or a sense of entitlement and freedom. A girl would ruin her reputation if she behaved the way we do now.
While I was making my life the life I wanted it to be I had to constantly listen to the comments: 'When I was your age, I was already married and had you and your sister! How hard can it be?'
My dad dated her with the awareness that if he wanted to get serious he should propose and that sex in their relationship might bring pregnancy which would lead to a marriage.
I dated guys who expected me to be on a pill or go on a pill and they would freak if I left my toothbrush in their bathroom. Guys of our generation wanted to enjoy themselves but so did we!
The same thing is about looks. We expect to go with the fashion and keep ourselves looking young for much longer than our mothers. We are no longer considered selfish because we go regularly to a beauty salon or update our wardrobe, it is normal to look good, have hobbies and 'me time' and still function as a wife or a mother (thanks for that!).
I started to shave my pubic area pretty soon, I just didn't like the hair. I worked as a model and a dancer for a while, so hairless look was pretty much normal. I didn't consider the feminist question around it at all and went for it because I liked it. To keep my landing strip was a part of my usual beauty routine done without much thinking, the same way I keep my underarms and legs smooth. Only lately did I start to think about it more and wonder: is there an age limit when too little hair starts to be inappropriate? Will I look like I am trying to hard? Will I shock my midwife?
I am not prepared to send my razor to a retirement, but I am considering a new look. It may make my life a little bit easier as in few weeks time visibility will become an issue and I am not prepared to make my husband my beautician. On the other hand, if this is the only problem I am facing at the moment, isn't my pregnancy going really well?

So yesterday I was super duper bored and(instead of studding for my finals) I checked for my DIY projects-to-do List.I love ThreadBanger Blog and i downloaded their podcast on Itunes( i recommend it to you guys!! its awesome!)and i watched the VainGlorious video for DIY embellished T-shirts!(i leave the video below) and I got an Art Attack! hahhaha so I gather everything that could work to this project (yep, even the feather that I used 2 years ago for my flapper costume and used it as the eyelashes!) so here is the steps I took for my project!
These are all the materials i used (after a while, i change the ribbon because the one that i had chosen wasn't wide enough)
After Doing the sketches with pencil, i painted(be careful to put something in between the shirt for the paint not to transfer the cloth) and yep.. that little water mistake that fell on the right eyelash is a bummer so be careful yourself and don't commit the same mistake I did!
Cut the halloween flapper's costume feather in half.
Make a simple bow, it is really really easy, just cut like 25 cm of the ribbon, sew the both ends and then with a little satin ribbon(the white one)make a knot in the middle and secure it.
Yes this is the finished tank! haha i put some red glitter on the lips for it to be shinny baby! ahha tell me what you think and if you dare to make this DIY please show me your pictures to exchange ideas. this was super easy and took me less than 15 minutes.. believe the tank looks so good on, but i was tired and late for a girls night out and I didn't had time to put it on and snap some pictures.. sorry Ill try to do it some other day after finals haha .. that remembers me that HELLOO! I should be studying! hahahah. Well I hope you like this t-shirt and here is the VainGlorious video I promised you earlier! Love you guys! oh and pray for me to do well enough in my social studies Final would you? because I would really appreciate that with all my heart!

The best of the vintage sport tourers. Stone reliable, comfortable, plenty fast enough, sort of sporty handling…actually excellent for its time, and quite good looking, in a Teutonic sort of way. The R90 was the natural outgrowth of the legendary R75 and was a needed upgrade for BMW. The Honda CB750 was faster and stopped better, thanks to the front disc brake, than the R75 and…Kawasaki had just upped the ante big time with the King Kong of them all…the mighty Z1.
The reviews of the R90 were glowing. Cycle World put it this way, "the BMW R90/6 is so exciting, it's difficult to find a point at which to begin describing it." Cycle Guide magazine said this, " a powerful motorcycle designed to compete in the performance conscience market of 1974." Lets think about performance for just a moment. The Z1 put out a very strong 82 HP, Kawasaki's H2 750 was rated at 74HP and Honda's CB750 67 ponies. BMW showed up at the party with…maybe 59? Not what you would call threatening. But, horsepower isn't everything, there's this little thing called torque and that is where the boys in Munich beat everybody. The R90 had pulling power all over the place. Yeah the Japanese had the top end and the rush of speed but it was the BMW that would get you from corner to corner quickly with no drama.
I found a nice 1976 R90/6 on ebay today, not too many miles and looks to be in good condition overall. What I really like about this motorcycle is the Hannigan Sport Touring fairing. These fairings have a very distinctive look and feel to them. My friend Bill Stermer, author and journalist ( he wrote the definitive book on these bikes and is a contributing editor to Rider magazine ) has one on his R90 and just loves it. I have ridden the bike and understand why. This bike has the stock BMW saddle bags which are very nice, but I do recommend that you also add a safety strap to the bags as they are known to, at the worst time, pop open and leave your stuff spread across the landscape. I do have one big question about the bike though, it has a new front wheel, why? Was the bike crashed? did it hit a big pothole on the road? if there was some damage, how are the forks? But, maybe it got a new front wheel just because the old one was corroded and looking a bit ugly? Anyway, that is the only question I would ask, otherwise this looks to be a great bike at a good price that will last anyone years and years. Plus, that Hannigan fairing is so cool. The more I look at this bike, I wonder if it might a better bike for me than my R90 with RS fairing? Hmmm. Click on the pics below for more info. And, if you call now, you get a free tank bag!! Don't wait.
'75 Honda CB750
How often do you find an unrestored, virtually new, stone stock motorcycle on ebay? Not all that often. But, there is one today and it's a beauty. My old friend Bud had one exactly like this one, same year, color and his was in about the same condition…that is until he made a very nice Cafe style bike out of it. Bud kept all the original parts wrapped up in blankets, packed in boxes and stashed away, which turned out to be a smart move when he finally sold the CB.
Honda redefined motorcycling in 1969 with the CB750. The big Honda put out a whopping sixty seven horsepower that would easily take you over 'the ton', a front disc brake (the first on production based motorcycles) that would haul you down from those lofty speeds with ease, and all of it at a price of only $1495. The term Superbike was coined to fit the mighty Honda 750. Through its ten year lifespan, 1978 being the last year of the SOHC model, the CB750 underwent few changes…'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.
I found this absolutely beautiful 1975 CB750 on ebay today and honestly, looking at the pictures you'd swear you were looking at a new bike..it's just missing the nubs on the tires. With only 7750 miles on the odometer, it's barely broken in. This is a bike that I personally would leave just as it came from the factory. The SOHC CB750 is still to this day one of the most beautiful motorcycles ever built. The CB has a rock solid reputation for reliability that would make planning a long trip with it a no brainer. The bike is located in Oregon, which to me means…road trip. Buy the bike, pack up your riding gear, get a Greyhound bus ticket to Fairview Oregon and then have a great ride home. It's a perfect time for traveling in the west.
The owner doesn't give a lot of description but I think in this case the pictures tell you most of the story. Click on the pics for the rest of the photo's and a way to contact the owner.
A side note here, the cafe racer pictured above is not my friend Bud's, it belongs to Steve 'Carpy' Carpenter, the CB750 Cafe Racer genius.
'75 Honda CB750 Cafe' Racer
I love Cafe' Racers…always have, always will. There is just something so completely right about a well done Cafe' Racer. They are purposeful motorcycles, designed and built to go from point A to point B quickly with no muss, no fuss. And, when done right, in fine style. A clean Cafe Racer will always attract a crowd no matter where it is parked. While you're inside the local gas station convenience store getting your afternoon Red Bull, the guy pumping regular into his wife's(?) minivan will walk over and give your bike the 'I wish I was riding this' look over. When you ride it to work, it's guaranteed that at least half your workmates will look at your motorcycle both coming to work and going to lunch…and, they do it every time you ride to work. Non riders will look at your Cafe Racer and ask questions like "isn't that uncomfortable to ride?" or, "where does the passenger sit?". Most fellow riders at the Sunday morning ride breakfast stop, no matter what they ride, will admire your bike and the work you put into it.
The true appreciation however, of a well built Cafe' Racer comes from one place and one place only. You. You are the one that visualized your Cafe' Racer. You are the one that knows all the little details of what went into building your bike. You know how every part feels and fit's together…and the ones that didn't!?. The time, the money, and then more time and money. Speaking of more money, you also add in what I call the 'might as wells'…those are the things that you go ahead and do because you did one thing so you 'might as well' do two more or, you've already spent this much money, so you 'might as well' spend this much more. I'm assuming you're a single guy here.
Once it's all built, you sit in your garage on Saturday night with a couple of friends, who have listened to all your dreams for this bike, and all the fit's of depression when things weren't coming together like you wanted. Friends who are tired of looking at all the before during and after pictures. Friends that just want to go riding with you and your creation tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow morning comes, you roll your Cafe Racer out of the garage into the sunlight (it never rains in this dream by the way…) where you just stand, staring at what you've built. Key in the ignition, set the choke, fold out the kickstart lever (proper cafe racers don't have electric starters…button's are for wimps) and with one kick your creation barks to life then settles into a soulful idle while you put on your helmet and gloves. As you pull out of the driveway, you catch a glimpse of your neighbor watching you from the kitchen window with a bit of a scowl on his face, your bike isn't really that loud is it? Nah.
Your Sunday ride is all you hoped it would be. Your friends loved the bike, it drew a crowd at breakfast, even the Highway Patrolman that stopped you for speeding gave your bike a compliment. What a day. By the time you got home you were already planning your next bike.
So how do you get the money to build another Cafe Racer?? You sell this one. That's how I found this really well done '75 Honda CB750 Cafe Racer on ebay.
This Honda is really nicely built. Everything that wasn't necessary was stripped off. The frame was modified for handling improvements, suspension was upgraded a little, the motor was tidied up, a very nice custom made seat / tail section was built as was a sweet oil tank. This CB750 is a great example of what a cafe racer can and should be. There are many more details to be found about this motorcycle and more pictures. Just click on the pics and you could save yourself a lot of the agony of building a custom Cafe Racer. There is one thing I would do if it were mine though…bin the Raasks rearsets. I have had them before and they are too high to be comfortable. Cobble something up from either the stockers or a later model CB750F…you and your hips will be a lot happier.
'76 Honda CB750
I don't believe you could find a sweeter unrestored CB750 anywhere. The first generation SOHC 750's were a true marvel of the time. Smooth, fast, good brakes and reliability. Honda had truly become the bench mark for motorcycle reliability. My traveling partner at the time Bud, had a '72 CB750 that rode everyday to work and took at three long trips per year. Long trips to him were nine to ten days and 500-600 miles per day minimum. Bud liked to sightsee at around 75MPH. His Honda never broke down, well, unless a flat tire and a dead battery count as breakdowns.
This one on ebay today is absolutely beautiful. Unrestored but looks almost like it just came off the showroom floor. And it gone too far from that showroom floor, the motorcycle only has 7,000 miles on the clock. I have seen SOHC 750's in good shape go for some pretty big money and so far this one is looking quite reasonable. Buy it, fly to where it is and ride it home. click on the pics for more pics and details.

Critic Reviews for Revenge of the Green Dragons
All Critics (24) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (3) | Rotten (21)
The representation of Asian American men as hot-blooded toughies in the film does put a dent in the omnipresent nerdy eunuch stereotype and the model-minority myth.
There's a good story somewhere in "Revenge of the Green Dragons," but it's not the one Lau and his colleagues chose to retell.
This crudely made thriller plays like a stilted Cantonese riff on organized-crime cliches, substituting blood and brutality for novelty or insight.
This crime drama wants to be a Chinese-American "Goodfellas," but it ends up just looking bad.
What initially feels like brash energy peters out until what's left mainly evokes pretty ordinary gangster movies.

Please take some time to learn more about us and our product offerings.
As mentioned in this previous post, we've been looking for ideas to further improve our WPF Docking/MDI product, which already is the market leader for docking tool window and MDI functionality. We've committed to working on a complete internal restructuring of the product that we will call Docking/MDI vNext. We're doing our best to keep the same general API surface, while providing even more advanced features in every area of the product. We've collected suggestions from our customers over the past several years and are working to meet them as best we can with Docking/MDI vNext.
In today's post, I'd like to show off the redesigned dragging functionality for tool windows and the dock guide display.
For vNext, one thing we're working very hard on is injecting fast, subtle animations throughout the product. We want the docking window UI to appear fluid, much like the rest of Windows. We pay special attention to animation speed so that the animations provide pleasing effects while not hindering usability in any way.
In the area of dragging tool windows, we have quick fade ins for the dock guides. Also, a blue drop preview appears when moving over dock guides, or tool window container title bars and tabs. The blue drop preview has an animation that "pops" into place, using a combination of fade and scale effects. Check it out below:
This screenshot sequence also shows off a new method of dragging tool windows for vNext. In the past, starting a tab drag would drag a blue rectangle only. In vNext, starting a tab drag (or a tool window container drag via title bar) will immediately detach the tool window(s) from the layout and float them, tracking the floating container with the pointer. As you drag over a dock guide or tool window container title bar/tab area, the semi-transparent blue drop target appears on top of the floating container to show you where the drop will occur. This new behavior matches what is found in the latest version of Visual Studio.
You'll notice that I referred to the "pointer" and not mouse above. That's because we also are taking great care in vNext to ensure dragging, etc. all fully work with any pointer such as mouse, stylus, or touch! The docking capabilities seen above can be accomplished with your finger on a touchscreen.
These are just some of the really advanced features we're adding to the product for vNext.
Docking/MDI vNext is currently still in early development stages but is progressing very well. Please contact us via email if you are an existing customer and would like to sign up as a beta tester for vNext. If you have any other suggestions for improving Docking/MDI, now is the time to get them in. We'll post more updates on our vNext improvements soon.
In the meantime, please download our current Docking/MDI control product and give it a spin.
We'll be attending Microsoft's annual Build event next week in San Francisco. We're really excited about where Microsoft is headed with Windows updates, and innovations in other technologies. The "one Microsoft" vision is unfolding before us, with the melding of the best aspects of recent Windows versions into a single Windows 10 platform.
Windows 10 will be a logical upgrade for any consumer running reasonably recent versions of Windows. Windows 7 - 8.1 consumers will be offered it free of charge, making it a no-brainer upgrade for those users. We really appreciate Microsoft's renewed focus on the importance of the desktop, where Universal apps will now be able to run alongside their Win32 app counterparts.
Speaking of the desktop, it's just as important as ever on PCs, especially in Windows 10. We are fully committed to continuing development of new UI controls and products for the WPF platform. Our current primary development focus is working on a massive update to our very popular WPF Docking/MDI product to add a whole host of new features. Check out prior blog posts for some details on what's coming and look for many more in the near future.
In regards to Universal apps, we will be updating our WinRT XAML controls to target the Universal app platform over the coming months so that they are ready for use in developing Windows 10 apps. The most recent release of those controls added a new task board control, an advanced Python language for our SyntaxEditor code editor control, bar code display controls, and more.
See you at Build 2015!
The 2015.1 versions of our WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML controls were released a couple weeks ago and in today's post I'd like to highlight one of the great new controls that were introduced in that version: TaskBoard.
A task board consists of zero to many columns, each of which can contain zero to many cards. Columns and cards can be dragged and reordered, using pleasing animations. Let's see an example to give you a picture of how it all works.
In the demo below, we have a TaskBoard control that is being utilized for a task planning system, commonly used in project management to help organize the priorities of a team. The columns represent task groupings, and the cards represent individual tasks. Each column has a header and optional footer that surrounds the contained card items.
In this sample, each column header specifies the task grouping name and the column footer contains an "Add a task" button. The footer of the overall TaskBoard control contains an "Add a list" button, which shows at the end of the list of columns.
The entire UI of the task board can be fully customized. The cards can show any custom content as well, or can vary content based on data template selectors.
The TaskBoard control is designed for MVVM usage and makes it easy to fully alter the appearance of the entire layout with properties for column/card spacing, padding, corner radius, etc. Best of all, rich animations are used whenever dragging columns or cards.
TaskBoard also works great with touch input. Use it to create task planning systems on large touchscreen displays.
The full source TaskBoard demo seen above is included in the sample projects that ship with our WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML controls, and is available for you to check out today.
Let us know what you think after you try it!
WPF Controls 2015.1 build 621 has been released and is now available for download. This build has several new minor features.
Due to a certain initialization bug that was located in the original 2015.1 release, it is highly recommended that customers who have downloaded 2015.1 build 620 upgrade to this new build.
See the announcement post for the detailed list of enhancements and updates.
In today's post, we'll show the optional Find All button that was recently added to the SyntaxEditor (WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML platforms) EditorSearchView control.
SyntaxEditor has always had the ability to perform "find all" searches programmatically, however we received feedback from numerous customers looking to add this to our EditorSearchView control so that their end users could also access it.
The EditorSearchView control seen above shows the new Find All button visible. Note that it is not visible by default (the new EditorSearchView.IsFindAllButtonVisible property defaults to false) since unlike the other find and replace operations, there is no automatic UI change in the editor itself for a find all operation. Instead, you need to display the results somehow, such as in a find results list.
This screenshot shows an example find results list. The full source code for this sort of setup is included in the samples that come with SyntaxEditor.
Providing the ability for your app's end users to find all instances of search text is certainly a handy addition.
The features described above are available in our latest WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML control versions and are available for use.
In today's post I'd like to show a new feature that was recently added to SyntaxEditor (WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML platforms): move selected lines up or down.
Moving a range of selected lines from one place to another is a very common task in any text editor. Of course this can be accomplished by cutting and pasting the selection around. But for small adjustments to the location of several lines, the ability to simply move the lines is a valued feature.
We've added the ability to move selected lines up and down via the Alt+Up and Alt+Down keys respectively. Let's see a couple examples of it in action.
In this sample, I selected the lines that contain the AnotherMethod method. Then I pressed Alt+Up several times to move the method above the Bar method. I then pressed Alt+Down to move the lines back down to their original position.
In this second sample, I had a comment that wasn't in the right place and I wanted to move it up. I just put the caret on the line and pressed Alt+Up a couple times to move it back to the right spot above the color property declaration.
The ability to move selected lines up and down is a real productivity enhancer when doing text editing.
The 2015.1 versions of our WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML controls have been released and are now available for download.
Major new features are described below. See the announcement posts for the large detailed list of enhancements and updates, including many items not listed below:
Our Bar Codes product has been ported to the WinRT XAML platform. This product, which already exists on WPF and Silverlight, allows your apps to render vector-based bar codes using many common 2D and linear bar code symbologies.
A full set of demos and QuickStarts are included to help you get going.
The interop assembly that makes it easy to use Docking/MDI with the Prism framework has been updated to reference the latest Prism v5.0.
We've made numerous layout and performance updates to further improve the product.
We also have been working hard on building a completely new internal engine for the Docking/MDI product, which will be available sometime later this year. Keep an eye on our blog for posts detailing the advanced features that are coming with those updates.
All of our edit box controls in the WinRT Editors now have an IsEditable property. When set to false, the edit box behaves more like a ComboBox, while still retaining the rich popups that make the editors unique. This is an ideal option for apps whose primary mode of interaction is expected to be touch.
The CornerRadiusEditBox, PointEditBox, RectEditBox, SizeEditBox, and ThicknessEditBox controls have been updated to support text parsing one and/or two number entries where appropriate, which is useful for easy uniform value entry.
In the above ThicknessEditBox, a 2 is typed and then Enter is pressed. The value is converted to a uniform thickness of 2.
A ValueChanged event has been added to all edit boxes, which fires when a value change is committed.
Finally, edit box padding has been adjusted so that more content is visible in the same amount of space.
A new DigitalGauge.CharacterSegmentThickness property allows for segment thickness adjustments. This gives you even finer control over the presentation of your digital characters.
We've enhanced the 'Linear Gauge Rolling Scale' QuickStart with a new infinite rolling scale example for navigation headings.
The EditorSearchView control now supports an optional "Find All" button.
The RTF export logic has been updated to support extended ASCII characters.
The free CSS language definition now supports the syntax highlighting of media queries.
We've dramatically improved the speed of large completion list display.
Several other performance improvements have been made, such as optimized the scenarios for which the TokenTagger raises its TagsChanged event, and refining of the automatic outlining update logic.
In the WinRT version, we added the SyntaxEditor.AreSelectionGrippersEnabled property, which determines whether the selection grippers show after touch within a view.
The C# parser has been improved to recover better when encountering open block statements so that its AST node structure remains better in tact.
The IntelliPrompt quick info for properties now includes accessors, making it possible to see whether a property is read-only.
The Python language has received an enormous amount of updates, that in sum really improve the entire automated IntelliPrompt feature set.
Check out all these enhancements:
The Views product has a new TaskBoard control added, available in all three (WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT) platforms. TaskBoard can be used to create a board of reorderable columns and cards. All of the drags use smooth animations to give you the feel that you are really interacting with the object.
The first full-source sample that comes with the control is a Repair Shop Scheduling demo, which shows how a TaskBoard can be used to interactively schedule work to resources, such as employees. TaskBoard excels at providing a visual way of representing work/tasks (displayed as cards) within a queue of some sort (displayed as a column).
The second sample is a Task Planning demo, which shows how a TaskBoard can visually organize a project's tasks.
We've added another new primitive SemiEllipse shape, which renders half of an ellipse.
The existing Triangle shape has a new IsClosed property that when set to false will create a triangle with only two of the sides rendered.
Finally, in the WPF Shared Library, we added GradientBrushSlider.CanAddStops and CanRemoveStops properties that determine whether stops can be added and removed from a GradientBrushSlider.
In today's post, I'd like to discuss a feature that has been requested by customers: tool window container title bar customizations.
There have been certain scenarios where a customer has wanted to add custom buttons or content into the tool window container title bar. In the past, you could achieve this by making a clone of the ToolWindowContainer style/template and altering it to include your custom UI in the title bar area. This works but is tedious and we wanted to make this sort of thing very easy to do for vNext.
In vNext, each ToolWindow now has a ContainerTitleBarContentTemplate property that can be set to a DataTemplate to show in the tool window container title bars. This can be a button, a label, or any other UI element you can think of.
In this animated example, we show three auto-hide windows. Each has custom content in the title bar. The "Preview" tool window has a search button that renders with the same style as the other buttons. The "Label" tool window has a status label in the title bar that currently says "Status" but could be data bound to a property.
The "Status" tool window shows a custom circle indicator that says whether the "Is Approved" CheckBox is checked. When the CheckBox is toggled, it updates a value in the tool window's data context and the indicator changes to another color.
As a bonus, we're also showing how custom content can be injected into auto-hide tabs. The indicator for the "Status" tool window also appears there and updates live as well.
In today's post, I'd like to discuss a feature that has been heavily requested by customers over the years: docked size constraints.
In the current Docking/MDI product, there is a minimum size that docked tool windows can become but it is hardcoded. We've had customers request the ability to configure a minimum size for certain tool windows. Other customers have also requested the ability to set a maximum size. Yet others would like to see fixed size tool windows. None of those scenarios are currently supported. Docking/MDI vNext changes that.
In Docking/MDI vNext, you're able to optionally specify minimum and maximum docked sizes for each tool window. We've written a lot of complex logic to support this feature in our layouts. As the DockSite changes size, the tool windows all reflow and do their best to adhere to the docked size constraints that have been given. It works very nicely.
Want to have a fixed size tool window? This can be achieved by simply setting the minimum docked size to be the same as the maximum docked size.
Best of all, splitting (also reimplemented for vNext) is fully aware of the constraints and won't let you drag splitters beyond what the the size constraints allow.
Let's have a look at how constraints work with splitters. In the screenshot below, I've turned off live splitting so that we can see the splitter drag highlights. In this layout, the Properties tool window has a minimum docked size constraint set.
As the mouse drags the splitter upward, you can see how the class view is allowed to become very short and the splitter is still tracking with the mouse.
Later, the mouse is dragging downward but the splitter has reached the point where the minimum constraint of the Properties tool window is. Thus the mouse cursor is down below the splitter (I kept moving the mouse down), showing that the splitter can't go any further in that direction.
This is a great feature that we've spent a lot of time on for Docking/MDI vNext. vNext is currently still in early development stages but is progressing very well. Please contact us via email if you are an existing customer and would like to sign up as a beta tester for vNext.
If you have any other suggestions for improving Docking/MDI, now is the time to get them in. We'll post more updates on our vNext improvements soon.
We've had a lot of customers throughout the years ask us for a sample that could show how to harness our SyntaxEditor .NET Languages Add-on and its automated IntelliPrompt within an ASP-style server tag context. This is especially useful for any sort of template generating scenario.
We had an internal sample that we would send customers upon request, but several months back, we cleaned it up, enhanced it, and added it as a new QuickStart sample. In this post, let's have a look at the QuickStart sample that was added to the SyntaxEditor for (WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML platforms) in the 2014.2 version showing how to achieve automated IntelliPrompt within ASP-style server tags.
In the animated presentation below, you can see how there is a basic parent language whose lexer only knows to tokenize and color the word "date" as a keyword. In real-world usage, the lexer could be made to fully colorize the text like normal. The lexer has hooks that cause a transition to the C# language found in our .NET Languages Add-on when ASP-style delimiters are encountered.
Both <% %> and <%= %> style tags are shown in this example. What happens behind the scenes is that the parent language's parser will code generate C# code. It will make a C# class named "__Generated" and a method named "__WriteOutput". All the text of the parent language is output within "Response.Write" method calls. C# code in the server tags is injected directly. The resulting full C# code is placed in a separate in-memory document and parsed. Finally the resulting parse data is returned, along with mapping data to know how offsets between the server tag range in the source document and those in the parsed C# document align.
Then there are several customized C# IntelliPrompt providers that know how to use that mapping data and translate offsets so that automated IntelliPrompt is fully functional within the server tag regions of the main source document, yet based on the generated C# code.
Tricky stuff, but it works great!
The full source sample described above was added in the first v2014.2 release of our WPF, Silverlight, and WinRT/XAML controls and is available for you to check out.

FTOPS recap: I didn't play any event I planned to play, but I did play the $535 HORSE and the $109+R PLO. In HORSE I never got it going and went out when I got scooped in Stud8 holding an ace-high flush and a 7 low in a 3-way pot. (yes I know how the fuck did that happen right?) In the PLO I kinda sorta bubbled (101th, pays top 90). But as they say, you can't be afraid of bubbling if you wanna win the big monies.
WCOOP: Here's my plan. Seeing what happened to my FTOPS plan I wouldn't put too much faith on me actually following it. But here it is anyways:
Event 10: Sept 8 12:00pm: $265 PLO Knock-Out
Event 16: Sept 10 2:00pm: $215 PLO 6-max
Event 19: Sept 11 1:00pm: $109 NLH (10-min levels)
Event 32: Sept 16 12:00pm: $320 NLH 6-max
Event 35: Sept 17 2:00pm: $215+R NLH
Event 38: Sept 18 1:00pm: $530 NLH Heads-Up
Event 40: Sept 18 5:00pm: $530 HORSE
Event 41: Sept 19 1:00pm: $215 NLH
Event 49: Sept 22 12:00pm: $215+1R1A NLH
Event 58: Sept 25 1:00pm: $530 PLO Heads-Up (2 days)
So to play all of the above I'll need roughly $4000. Still cheaper than an APPT event! lol.
