This is Jeffery Archer's Florentyna Rosnovski!
When Archer wrote about Florentyna, it was in an era, when the world quite didn't have as many powerful women as leaders. From her birth in Kane and Abel, followed by the Prodigal Daughter, and Shall We Tell the President (the sequels to Kane and Abel); Archers Florentyna is a woman who is spirited in every way, successful and a go getter.
She may be the angry woman to many or the determined one too. When I look at Florentyna Rosnovski, it's her ability to give her 100%, which left a lasting impression. From successfully building her own fashion store "Florentyna's", to becoming the chairman of the Baron Group after her father's death, she fights out all battles including sexual abuse. She keeps going on, in a male dominated spectrum to finally emerge victorious at politics, becoming a member of the House, later a Senator, and then the President of America.
A powerful woman character I have always loved and admired, Florentyna stood out in the Prodigal Daughter and Shall We Tell the President! The story moves delightfully from one page to the next with unexpected twists and turns.
I have read and re read these books with the same enthusiasm as if I was reading it for the first time, Ramya. 'Coz I am a Jefffery ARcher fan…should I say "AC"? Hahaha! You rekindled my memories of Ken, Abel and Florentyna.
The Prodigal daughter was the first adult novel I read when I was 15 years. My aunt gave her age old copy to me for reading. I am glad that I read such an inspirational book as my first. It kind of kept me away from a lot of crap and made me chose my books sensibly.
Oh thats ok Shalini…. But yes, Kane and Abel is my favourite, get to read this and I am sure you would fall in love with Archer.
Jefferey Archer has to be my favourite author. I love the twists in his tale and the happy ever after endings…..
I loved Kane and Able but never read this one. Very intriguing indeed. Jeffry Archer will always be an all time favourite for a lot of us.
And the characters of Kane and Abel are indeed well portrayed!! I love his books!!
Oh I haven't read Shall We Tell the President but I loved the other two. It's been so long ago though that I remember very little of it. Time to revisit the favourites.
This was the book that got me booked to Jeffery Archer. Ur post reminds me that I need to read it again!
Haha yes Ami, this is his best and deserves multiple re reads!
Another of my favorite series! And Florentyna was a solid woman character! I remember reading these decades ago.
Oh yes.. What a woman she was!!!
Please do… this series is worht it!!!
I remember reading Kane and Abel when I was in the 12th grade…almost 30 years ago..and boy, was I zapped! I was hooked on to Jeffrey Archer from the word go!
Oh yes, Kane and Abel is his best!!!!
I love love loveeeeeeee Florentyna. She's so strong headed and brave! I'm yet to read Shall We Tell the President, but I've loved her in The Prodigal Daughter!
Full marks to Archer for creating this character.
Totally!!!! SHe stole the show in the entire series!!!
This is a classic which I had thoroughly enjoyed reading back in my college days, don't recall much of it now. I love the short tales from Jefferey Archer a lot as he really knows how to add that perfect twist in his tale.
yes Shalz.. his books are a classic. And his subtle twists are what stands out!
Florentyna is one of my favorite characters too! Jefferey Archer is an all time favorite!
I have not read much of Jeffrey Archer but this story looks like a must read. Thanks for the review.
This is one of his bests Balaka!

Cabot Microelectronics Corporation Reports Solid Results for Third Quarter of Fiscal 2014
Revenue of $108.4 Million, Including Record Revenue in Tungsten and Advanced Dielectrics Slurry Business Areas
Gross Profit Margin of 47.7 Percent of Revenue
Earnings Per Share of 53 Cents
Purchased $18.6 million of Stock Under Share Repurchase Program
AURORA, Ill., July 24, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cabot Microelectronics Corporation (Nasdaq:CCMP), the world's leading supplier of chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) polishing slurries and a growing CMP pad supplier to the semiconductor industry, today reported financial results for its third quarter of fiscal 2014, which ended June 30, 2014.
Total revenue during the third fiscal quarter was $108.4 million. The company generated 2.5 percent revenue growth from its CMP consumables products for semiconductor applications over the prior year, including record revenue in its Tungsten and Advanced Dielectrics slurry business areas. However, lower revenue from the company's QED Technologies business, which is primarily capital equipment-oriented, primarily drove the 1.5 percent year-over-year decline in total revenue. The company recorded a gross profit margin of 47.7 percent of revenue in the third fiscal quarter, diluted earnings per share of $0.53 and cash flow from operations of $21.8 million. The company's balance sheet reflects a cash balance of $265.5 million and $175.0 million of debt outstanding as of June 30, 2014. During the quarter, the company purchased $18.6 million of stock under its share repurchase program, compared to $10.0 million in the same quarter last year.
"We are pleased to have achieved record revenue in our Tungsten and Advanced Dielectrics slurry businesses this quarter, as well as additional year-over-year revenue growth in our Aluminum slurry and CMP Pads businesses, and nearly 40 percent revenue growth in China," said William Noglows, Chairman and CEO of Cabot Microelectronics. "We believe our broad and deep capabilities as a CMP technology leader, including global infrastructure close to our customers around the world, and a commitment to excellence in global supply chain management and quality systems, differentiate us from our competitors. Based on this, we believe we are well-positioned to leverage advanced technologies such as 3D NAND, FinFet and multi-patterning, which have driven the need for new innovations in fab materials and should drive increased demand for CMP consumables."
Key Financial Information
Total third fiscal quarter revenue of $108.4 million represents a 1.5 percent decrease from the $110.0 million reported in the same quarter last year, on lower revenue from the company's QED Technologies business, which more than offset 2.5 percent growth from the company's IC CMP consumables products. In particular, the company achieved record revenue in its Tungsten and Advanced Dielectrics slurry businesses this quarter, and revenue from its CMP Pads and Aluminum slurry businesses grew compared to the same quarter last year. Year to date revenue of $308.3 million is 2.7 percent lower than the prior year, reflecting lower revenue from QED Technologies, and also including a $2.7 million adverse impact associated with foreign exchange rate changes, primarily the weaker Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar.
Gross profit, expressed as a percentage of revenue, was 47.7 percent this quarter, compared to 49.7 percent of revenue reported in the same quarter a year ago. Compared to the year ago quarter, gross profit percentage decreased primarily due to higher variable manufacturing costs, including higher raw material costs and higher logistics costs. Year to date, gross profit represented 47.3 percent of revenue, which includes a 70 basis point adverse impact of an asset impairment charge related to certain manufacturing assets recorded during the second fiscal quarter. The company expects its gross profit for the full fiscal year to be around the lower end of its guidance range of 48 to 50 percent of revenue.
Operating expenses, which include research, development and technical, selling and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, were $33.2 million in the third fiscal quarter, or $0.8 million higher than the $32.4 million reported in the same quarter a year ago, primarily due to higher travel costs, and professional fees associated with amending the company's existing credit agreement, which was completed this quarter. Year to date, total operating expenses were $97.2 million, or 3.0 percent lower than the previous fiscal year. The company continues to expect operating expenses for the full fiscal year to be between $127 million and $131 million.
Net income for the quarter was $13.3 million, down from $15.5 million reported in the same quarter last year. Net income was lower primarily due to a lower gross profit margin and lower revenue, partially offset by a lower effective tax rate. Year to date, net income was $34.7 million, which is up 0.3 percent compared to the prior year.
Diluted earnings per share were $0.53 this quarter, compared to $0.65 reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2013, which included a $0.05 benefit associated with the company's permanent reinvestment election in Japan. Year to date, diluted earnings per share were $1.39, which includes the adverse impact of $0.06 due to the asset impairment charge recorded during the second fiscal quarter, compared to $1.46 last year.

Gotham Review – "All Happy Families Are Alike" S1E22
Gotham wrapped up it's first season last night. Everyone said it would be bananas, and the only thing I can determine is that it was bananas because it was just plain silly. This is a good time to break the news to the readers of my reviews for Gotham, that I will not be writing reviews for Gotham Season 2. If I do anything with it, I will release a vlog about my feelings. Let me know in the comments what you think of episode!
Barbara's admission: This is only because of my prediction. If I am right, then this is a pro; otherwise it is a big ole con. Since I have so many cons, I decided to put this one in the plus column. During her counseling session with Leslie, Barbara admits that she killed her parents because she was upset that they took her posters when she was a kid (Poor rich girl! I feel so terrible for her low self-esteem). Then she goes on to attack Leslie with a knife. Now the whole scene was actually terribly done. And the lack of direction with Barbara's character is painfully obvious, but what if, WHAT IF, they are priming her to become Harley Quinn? She was driven made by a man she "loved" after all…
Fish's feminist moment: She may not have shot Maroni because he was being a misogynistic dick, but probably because she wanted to be Queen of Gotham. Either way, her response to him calling her toots and babes was shooting him between the eyes, and I immediately noted, "meme-able." Note: You can check out a great meme of the moment here.
Fish's Entrance: Did anyone else laugh hysterically when Fish returned to Gotham on a boat to ominous music? I did. Then when she told Selina "It's a brand new day" I expected the Dr. Horrible song to cue up. Honestly, that would have been better.
Selina's blind following: Selina shows up with Fish to the safe house sporting a faux-hawk and talking a whole lot of shit. She mentions that she isn't going to cut Jim down from the ropes because she doesn't want to lose the coolest gig in the world. Yet it is never explained what she thinks this cool gig was. She isn't totally dumb; she had to know that with all three crime bosses in one room, some gunfire was bound to happen.
Fish vs. Penguin: How comical this moment was. Butch can't decide between who to shoot. Everyone goes Tonya Harding on each other, and Penguins screams he is the King of Gotham. It's all so gaudy.
Fish's "death": I say this in quotes because I don't know if she is really dead. The whole fight scene between her and Penguin was just a bunch of high-pitched screaming. This all happened in the last five minutes, and it was already teased in the trailer for the episode. It's hard to believe their "big moment" was already shown to the audience. I know Jada Pinkett-Smith says she won't return. Could she be recast? Could she really be coming back and it was a publicity stunt so people would watch? She was floating on the water, but she may not be dead. Who knows? I doubt even the writers do.
Riddler's crazy head-shaking scene: While I thought the acting was good for Riddler losing his marbles, the scene was really oddly placed. We don't see him the whole episode and then he goes crazy at the very end? That could have waited until next season.
Bruce and Alfred find the Bat-cave: First of all, how does the butler not know about the cave behind the fireplace? Second of all, how did Bruce equate stoic immediately with Marcus Aurelius? Even I had to look that up on Wikipedia and I refuse to believe a 10-year-old is smarter than me. I was hoping when the fireplace popped open to reveal the cave steps that bats would fly up the corridor, but that didn't happen. And a remote control opened it? Really?
Falcone wants out: Which seems really opposite to what he wanted at the mid-season. We haven't seen him much since, so there is no explanation as to why. If this is the end of Falcone and Maroni, this is was one huge waste of a season and finale.
Dr. Leslie Thompkins, Therapist: First of all, why would she agree to counsel Barbara? I don't even want to think about my loved one's exes, much less counsel them. Then she accepts dinner from her? I'm surprised Barbara didn't just poison her.
Not much was wrapped up: I don't expect a lot to be wrapped up when there will be a second season, but Leslie bashing in Barbara's head was barely addressed. While I understand why she did it, everyone in the show seemed cool with it. Let's just go out on the balcony and talk about a knife! No medical help for Barbara or mental health for Leslie. I don't think anyone will even remember this scene by the time fall rolls around.
Double guns: I laughed hysterically when Jim was running through the hospital shooting with two handguns, and never getting hit with machine guns. Pew pew!
Hush Comics gives "All Happy Families Are Alike" a D for giving us a really disappointing ending to a really disappointing season. Nothing happened for a solid 40 minutes, and nothing was believable.
Here is the sun setting on my Gotham reviews! C'est la vie!

Actually installing ionCube successfully. Softaculous will not install on shared hosting unless GoDaddy does it for you.
To install Softaculous ionCube on my GoDaddy hosting for access to their lovely suite of installs, here is what needed to be done for my instance.
1. Make sure you have your php.ini file here: /home/mySite/public_html/php.ini It may be found here on GoDaddy, but I don't have one. If that's you, go to your cPanel->Files->File Manager and create one by clicking on "+ File", otherwise use the one that is already in place.
4. Upload the file you downloaded (in my case, ioncube_loaders_lin_x86.zip) using filezilla or other ftp (or straight from the cPanel, using Upload; I prefer the FileZilla so I know I'm using binary upload, not text, which may corrupt). There are many ioncube_loader_lin_X.Y.so files in there, so you are prepared for different versions of PHP (such as X.Y may be 5.6, as shown below).
6. Now go to your https://SITE/ioncube/loader-wizard.php and follow directions there. It has several of those above.
7. I found that I needed to use Ctrl-F5 to reload the loader wizard page and then test the system with the bottom button for it to show the setup above was functioning correctly (see below).
8. Delete loader-wizard.php from your server. Jump below to Step 9.
The ionCube Loader version 6.0.8 for PHP 5.6 is installed and encoded files should run successfully.
The version 5 ionCube Loaders can also provide a real-time intrusion protection system called ionCube24.
ionCube24 stops attackers from launching malware on your site.
Visit ionCube24.com to find out more.
9. Use PuTTY to SSH into your system (use your IP address found on Home cPanel Screen) with your ftp account (cPanel->Files->FTP Accounts->Special FTP Accounts to the one that is at your top path /home/myhost ). If you need to change (forgot) your password, go out to your Godaddy->Hosting->MySite.com->Settings to the Password Tab.
10. Getting some of the instructions on Firewalls and installation from https://www.softaculous.com/docs/Installing_Softaculous_in_cPanel use the following commands.
I have a Ticket in at Softaculous.com to see if they can assist. Thanks folks! I look forward to hearing back from you!


I'd like to obtain helpful tips, instruments and resources via e-mail from Kelley Blue E book and associates.

I scoff at the people who find themselves willing to (for my part) spend too much for a car that is new – whatever automotive that is. To those who are terrified that they may have a automotive that breaks down – properly, I grew up in a family with terribly unreliable vehicles, and there are definitely worse issues than having to call AAA and lease a car for a few days. However I don't get to share the excitement or feeling of pride that somebody who actually loves vehicles will pop over to this web-site get from having that new automobile scent or being excited in regards to the trip to the store. And since I do not expertise the fear of a break down, I don't get the peace of thoughts that others get from new cars. I'm guessing I am in a minority right here, but I'm the sole earnings earner for our household (me+wife+3 kids under 6). Let's simply say that a brand new car is just not an option for us for the time being.
The good news is, if you are willing to make a sacrifice," you continue to have time to purchase a new BMW Z4 (luxurious sports automobile) or an X5 (luxurious SUV). Listed within the Assets section beneath is a link to the federal government's automobile auctions web site. Name dealerships to see if they have any repossessed cars on their lots. You may avoid paying an auctioneer and buy right by means of the original dealer. Call around to native banks and see if they are offering sales on any cars. Most times, if there are defects, the dealership won't hassle fixing them and can promote the automobiles "as-is." This implies you'll be responsible for fixing something. These cars range in high quality and situation.
Mercedes, for example, lets you pay for the automobile within the United States, decide up a new car at its manufacturing facility near Stuttgart and drop it off at considered one of several delivery locations. You'll make cost and insurance preparations in the United States and might be given papers to take to the manufacturing unit. Full the mandatory paperwork for purchasing a brand new automotive and call the manufacturing facility about whenever you'll pick it up and when and the place you may drop it off for transport. If in case learn the facts here now you have any issues along with your automotive while in Europe, contact the manufacturing facility directly. Drop off your automotive on the prearranged shipping location. The automotive shall be delivered to your local dealership within a few weeks. Look in the local newspapers and local English-language papers as soon as you've got arrived in Europe to buy a automobile. All the time drive a car before you buy it to make it possible for it is comfortable for you. Take the car to a mechanic for an inspection if the automobile is owned by an individual. Save as much money as possible earlier than shopping for a automobile.
There Are fairly a couple of useful car iPod apps that make having a entrance mounted iPod mini car mount one thing that can be really useful. With an automotive mounted iPad there is not any need to buy a GPS system and if in case you have children, you'll be able to turn the back seat into an oasis of calm by putting in an Apple iPad headrest holder and therefore giving them 1000′s of video games, films and other activities to keep them amused on long and brief browse around here trips. The automobile mounts recommended on this web page are among the many most dependable and top rated iPad mini car mounts accessible. It's a flexible and straightforward to put in car mount, and can be used in landscape or portrait viewing. Top-of-the-line makes use of in a car for the iPad is as a leisure device for backseat passengers. Buy: Do not go to the store hungry; you will buy more than you want.
I absolutely hate it when I get to the dealership, finally determine to buy the car after hours of analysis and agreeing upon a value point, only for them to offer me a listing of add-on options for the automotive. If you're shopping for a completely new automobile, they may already include most of those options, however in case you buy an older car and dwell in a salty coastal area, or journey icy Northern roads, chances are you'll want to think about adding on one or two. Asking yourself these 7 questions will enable you assume, act, and purchase smarter during have a peek here the search for your next automobile, but remember…..you may all the time walk away when you don't feel entirely snug about a deal. You should be confident your next automotive is strictly the proper one for you, and planning forward will put you in a a lot better position to purchase one when the time comes. One thing to know is that sometimes a model new car is cheaper than a automotive that could be a few years previous. Get all the information about the automotive from the vendor. Better insurance coverage charges.
I selected the finance choice, with Toyota was 3.9% financing and with BMW it was 2.9%. Between that and the taxes, the finance funds for either automobile would gave been about the same (BMW was $15 extra per thirty days) over four top article years. It happens to millions of people yearly and the worth of their car is massively compromized. New cars are for people with cash to burn.
Trust me, you will get noticed whenever you drive this car. Here is the present prime 10 most costly automobiles ever bought at public sale. A have a look at Basic and Sports Car Magazine's Top 10 most beautiful Vehicles, determined by a gaggle of 20 of probably the most influential automobile designers of the final 50 years. My overview of what I believe are the creme de la creme of super vehicles on the planet immediately – These exotic cars embrace the likes of the Koenigsegg Agera, Pagani Huayra, Bugatti Veyron and the Ferrari F12. A pictorial tutorial on altering the 12V battery in a 2004-2010 Toyota Prius. Nice Choices of Wooden Vehicles and Vehicles.
The cargo area of those medium-sized vehicles is accessible from the rear seat, as opposed to the separate trunk in sedans. In terms of measurement, hatchbacks range from subcompact vehicles to mid-measurement automobiles; and that comes as a boon for these autos as it is handy to use them in city visitors helpful site. These automobiles are also referred to as multipurpose autos (MPV) or multi-utility vehicles (MUVs) as they're used for passenger in addition to cargo transportation. Whereas most of those vehicles are front wheel drives, four wheel drive minivans usually are not really uncommon.
The identical risky technique — gambling on comparatively untested technology — drove large investments by Toyota Motor Corp in the Prius hybrid and Nissan Motor Co within the Leaf electric automotive. The automobile entered production in the fall of 2010 as the first U.S. gasoline-electrical hybrid that could be recharged by plugging the automobile into any electrical outlet.
Adjustments to the software program and hardware are part of an intensive improvement programme and the ultimate car is focused to deliver 240-250hp. A GT86 CS-R3 present automobile will probably be on display all through Rallye Deutschland at the TMG space within the Trier service park. Whether you are a complicated singleton on the hunt for fashion read full report and spec, a household in search of trouble-free automobile ownership, or a company automotive driver watching your profit-in-form – it is best to contemplate the Toyota Auris. This firm has a gallery of accessible armored automobiles and armored cars.
More cars are being marketed with the first three to five years of maintenance included. In contrast to at the moment, vendor promo models were out there for nearly every car and every body model built in America. There may be an entire slideshow with fashions from 1960 under, and a few in the physique of this text, and the one automotive that's even form of out there as a promo model right now is the Corvette. We say "kind of," because they don't give them away to youngsters or sell them for a see here now cheap worth in the elements department of the dealerships anymore. For probably the most part, they're overpriced grownup collectables which are easier to search out online than they're at most Chevy dealerships. Perhaps it'll remind you of how cars have been in 1960. Nice article on a forgotten part of the automobile hobby. Airbags and vehicular safety is a key side of automotive manufacturing and the insurance coverage world.

And the trial of former Ivorian leader Laurent Gbagbo enters its second day. Gbagbo and his former youth militia leader Charles Blé Goudé face four charges of crimes against humanity.

Recently, I had some blood work done and to my amazement I'm not as healthy as I thought I was. From the outside I look pretty healthy. To those that don't know me personally, I seem to be pretty much in shape at a healthy weight and no health issues. That darn blood test told me otherwise!
While my blood pressure (104/60 is normal for me; the "norm" is 120/80) and glucose levels are pristine- my cholesterol is NOT. I was flabbergasted when I saw the results. With diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol being best friends with my gene pool, I was disappointed in myself that I've allowed myself to be borderline high/high concerning my cholesterol levels. I admit I have my vices when it comes to food. The Whoppers, China Man (chinese food), KFC, Taco Bell....are among the list. Just typing that out makes my mouth water-but clogging my poor arteries! On top of that while to the outside world I "look" like I'm at a good weight, I'm here to admit I'm more than 50 pounds overweight. When people ask, "how much do you weigh?" and I ask "how much do you think I weigh?" They respond with the weight I SHOULD be at...amazing. My body type is Mesendomorph. This body type tends to be naturally strong but can easily gain fat. This body type also distributes fat evenly throughout the body to give the appearance of not really being overweight. Being overweight on top of this newly discovered neighbor that lives in my arteries is a recipe for heart attack, stroke, diabetes or just an early death. While death in itself doesn't bother me, leaving family and friends behind at a relatively young age does.
As a child, I had the best of both worlds- mother's family is from the South so you KNOW that's some good eatin'! Hamhocks, neckbones, pulled pork, red beans and rice, grits, gravy, fried, baked...mmmm. My father is from Dominican Republic so arroz con pollo, casava bread, yucca, penil (roast pork), fried plantains where always fixed and EATEN! Even with those foods we ALWAYS, ALWAYS had fresh fruit and vegetables in my house. My father would go to the fruitstand EVERYDAY (I kid you not) to get fresh produce. My mom kept granola, baby carrots and other healthy snacks in the house. I didn't really start eating junk food until I got to junior high! As I got older, I managed to always eat fruits and vegetables and still do but I haven't been making the greatest food choices overall. So I stepped up big time.
I drug out my treadmill, popped my P90x dvd's in the player and got a small notebook to keep notes on my exercise. On top of that, I started taking Vitamin B supplements and purchased fresh blended natural juices from Odwalla, Bolthouse and Naked. I also started buying Healthy Choice and Kashi frozen lunches (make sure you check the sodium on frozen dinners and lunches! Anything past 500mg should NOT go in your cart!). I've imposed a "don't eat pass 8pm NOT MATTER WHAT." I'm already a green tea fanatic so I'll keep drinking that but I've also been using my Hydra Coach! So having pre-purchased meals, fruit and juices not only curb bad food eating but keeps me from eating our all the time, spending money and watch my food intake.
As a black woman, I refuse to let my old habits put me in the position to become one of the statistics! Believe me this is not easy by any means. It's easier to go to grab a burger than eat a low carb high protein meal. So I decided to help me stay on track, I'll eat a "reward" meal once every two weeks. This way I don't feel like I "can't" eat this and make me want it even more. It's easy to come home and grab a snack and flop on the couch or the bed and watch television. I set up my treadmill where it's staring me in the face when I walk in the door. I most certainly do not want to have medications be part of my daily diet. Countless family members have a med "cocktail" before even eating breakfast...and I'm NOT trying to go there!
Even though I've made a conscious effort to get my cholesterol down to an acceptable number and drop this excess weight, I've also decided seeing a doctor on a regular basis will become part of my regimen. I'm sure there are some of you out there that are like me and only go to the doctor if they are two steps away from seeing the Pearly Gates...lol. I say that in jest but you get what I mean. If it wasn't for this recent blood work I would have continued down that dangerous path playing chicken with my own life. I'm just grateful I caught it in time to make the necessary changes. I encourage you to KNOW your body and KNOW your family medical history. Making changes to be more healthy save not only your life but it also allows those who love you continue to enjoy you that much longer.
I felt obligated to share my experience! I hope it shows people being young doesn't necessarily mean you're automatically "healthy." We face the same challenges and health issues just like someone older than ourselves and we can't continue to act like our age will always be on our side. We also can't continue to act like carrying extra unnecessary weight is healthy either. Healthy and weight loss doesn't mean looking anorexic and being a size 0-I think a lot of black women have that stigma engrained in their heads. Being at a healthy weight and eating right to keep things like diabetes and high blood pressure at bay is more important than what size you are at the end.

Financial journalist counts her blessings
Christmas can be quite the cash drain. All the more reason to tune into Alison Griffiths' show, Maxed Out.
By Lawrence Chau
Published : December 09, 2007
RTR Media Inc. photo
Name: Alison Griffiths
Christmas can be quite the cash drain. All the more reason to tune into Alison Griffiths' show, Maxed Out for she will do with cash what Janet Jackson does with her career: Exercise "Control."
Griffiths believes in SUBYB — "Saving Up Before You Buy." Like American guru Suze Orman, Griffiths says financial health is based on saving not living on credit. "If you can change your attitude about acquisition and save up for your purchases instead of instant gratification and the resultant instant debt, you will always be in financial control."
A financial journalist with a background in economics, Griffiths knows the importance of a hard earned dollar. A career name tagged with freelance writer, book author, radio broadcaster and TV host, is in stock market speak, "a high risk volatile venture." That's a polished way of saying, "There ain't no steady pay cheque, honey" and "Where did all the zeros go?"
Her first book, Fleecing The Lamb: Inside the Vancouver Stock Exchange, for example, took nearly two years to write. Her return? A mere $10,000.
However, you can't always count your pennies when your blessings are worth more. "I learned the lessons of money management through the school of hard knocks," Griffiths explains referring to the financial crisis her family faced when her four-year-old daughter nearly died from meningitis. Five years afterwards, the family was still weathering hard times.
"So, we did what every good freelance writer does. We found someone to pay us to sort out our problems," shares Griffiths. "A column called The Portfolio Doctor in the Toronto Star was born and we've been in the financial advice game ever since."
By we, she is referring to David Cruise, her husband and literary cohort. Their portfolio comprises 25 years worth of newspaper articles, a screenplay, film documentary work and 10 books, such as The Portfolio Doctor: Your Prescription for Investment Health. The couple had also tried in vain to create a TV show about money management, but their pitch fell on deaf ears.
Nearly 20 years later, Kit Redmond of RTR Media (which is co-owned by Debbie Travis) came calling. Griffiths got cast as Maxed Out's second host, and life has never been sweeter. "Money can be funny, dramatic and tragic, and what better combination for television?," notes Griffiths.
In her two seasons of hosting the show, Griffiths has seen it all: bombshell wedding bills, unexpected pregnancy costs, credit card madness and home buying gone awry. "The attitude of 'I want therefore I take or buy' drives me nuts," she adds.
Maxed Out airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on W Network. Tomorrow's holiday special is -- brace yourself -- a heartwarming tearjerker. After realizing so, I was embarrassed to have asked if Anne Murray was going to guest star singing a CIBC Christmas jingle.
To my surprise, Griffiths replied: "Anne Murray was, very briefly, my gym teacher in Halifax when I was a kid so I'd love for her to sing a jingle.

Hospital Story Now Available for iOS Devices
by Garv on August 30, 2011 at 11:29 pm
Posted In: iOS, iPad, iPhone, News
Hospital Story is an 8-bit hospital action game that is free to play. It is now available on the Apple App Store with upgrade available for purchase with real money, or by earning points in the game.
Outblaze and Animoca today launched Hospital Story, a retro-style, simulated 8-bit action time-management game for Apple's iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad that debuted in 9th place on Apple's Top Free iPhone Games Apps list. With blocky graphics and crisp chiptune-inspired music that will be familiar to fans of the 8-bit era, the game puts players in charge of a gorgeously pixelated medical institution. Hospital Story is available free of charge on the App Store.
When an unspecified epidemic strikes the unnamed city, it is up to the player to manage an underfunded, resource-strapped hospital before it is swarmed by blocky-looking patients in need of medical attention. Players of Hospital Story must determine patient priorities and arrange prompt treatment in a highly challenging time-management game presented in stunning simulated 8-bit graphics and lush beep-filled synthesizer audio to recreate the feeling of playing a videogame in the 1980s. Players control the hospital's resources to strategically upgrade medical equipment or hire more nurses and doctors to cope with the ever-increasing number of patients.
"We took great care when making Hospital Story to avoid pushing the technology envelope," said Philip Lau, producer for Hospital Story. "We did not want to get the most out of modern hardware or come across as revolutionary. Fortunately we found that the iPhone's standard 480×320 pixel layout was able to simulate much lower resolutions from the 8-bit gaming era. This game goes out to anyone who remembers the Commodore 64, NES, Atari computers and consoles, and even the Intellivision."
Hospital Story is free to download and play. Optional in-game upgrades can be bought with Medi Points, which are purchased with real money and earned in-game.

'My husband and I were lucky enough to meet Jaclyn through a fellow photographer friend based in Santa Barbara. She came highly recommended and after speaking with her, we knew she was the perfect person to capture our special day.
"We have worked with Jaclyn on maternity and family photo shoots. All I can say is I wish we would have met her before we were married to do our engagement and wedding. She is very professional, but also personable and comfortable to be around and she is great with kids.None of our photo sessions have turned out the same... she has great ideas on locations and is willing to work with any vision you may have. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a great photographer for a variety of occasions!"
"I hired Jaclyn to photograph my wedding, and I am so happy I did! Working with Jaclyn and her assistant Eric was simply a dream. They were so friendly and personable. They created a space and experience that was devoid of stress or pressure. I met with Jaclyn weeks prior to the event to review the venue and discuss photo locations. She was not only punctual and professional, but she was truly interested in who we were as people, and the emotions behind the event we were about to host. On the day of the event, she was the best! She was flexible when timing changed and assertive, in the friendliest of ways, about getting certain shots we had discussed. I was beyond pleased with the experience. Our photo package included a photo book, which is my favorite! Some of our family was unfortunately unable to attend the wedding. I shared the photo book with them, and they all said they felt like they were there after looking through it. Jaclyn and Eric did such a wonderful job in capturing the joy, love, intimacy and fun of the event through their photographs. As my life with my husband grows and evolves, I know that we will be hiring Jaclyn again and again to document all our future life events!"
"Our experience working with Jaclyn for our engagement photography and our wedding day was wonderful. Jaclyn allowed us to be ourselves and feel comfortable during our engagement photography session. On our wedding day, when needed Jaclyn deftly organized dozens of celebrating people into specific group photos. At other times she was seemingly invisible; we never noticed her at work. We couldn't be happier with the results; her artistry glows in our wedding photos, we would hire her again and recommend her without reservation."
"We were so lucky to meet such a wonderful photographer who was so easy and delightful to work with. Our wedding (and the year and half it took to plan it) was so special and fun, and Jaclyn did such beautiful work capturing it at every step."
"From start to finish, Jaclyn is one of the most thorough and professional photographers we've ever worked with. My wife and I had a different sort of wedding in mind with attire and decor inspired by the Middle Ages. Our unorthodox theme would require a special eye and we knew that our wedding photographer would need to be able to adapt and respond appropriately.
When our day finally approached, Jaclyn did not disappoint. As my wife and I are both artists, we recognize skill and craft when we see it. Jaclyn has both in spades! We were so happy that we hired Jaclyn as she never missed a beat and fully captured the feeling of what we wanted in our wedding: a magical transportation to a fantastic realm in the distant, evocative past. If we were to do it all over again, we would hire Jaclyn in a heartbeat as choosing to work with her was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding."

The Discerning of Spirits
By: Frank Hammond
Narrated by: Frank Hammond
Jesus gave the commission to cast out demons to the entire Church in Mark 16:17. When God calls us into ministry, He equips us. The gifts of the Holy Spirit, as presented in 1 Corinthians 12, represent God's empowerment to believers to accomplish this task. We must rely on the Holy Spirit for the ministry of deliverance and nothing else, not our own understanding, or the voice of demons, but only the voice of the Holy Spirit to guide us in deliverance and spiritual warfare.

Jezebel's War with America: The Plot to Destroy Our Country and What We Can Do to Turn the Tide
By: Michael L. Brown PhD
Narrated by: George W. Sarris
Jezebel was the most wicked woman in the Bible, a powerful seductress who killed the prophets, led Israel into idolatry and immorality, and emasculated men. She was seductive and determined to snuff out the voices coming against her In 21st-century America, Jezebel is not a person. But it's as if the spirit of Jezebel is alive again today. The influence of the same demonic force is being felt in the massive increase of pornography and sexual temptation, the militant spirit of abortion, the rise of radical feminism, and most importantly, in the attempt to silence prophetic voices.

What listeners say about Jezebel
Kymberly S.
A Must Read For Every Believer!!
I can not tell you how much insight this book give me about what was going on at my old church AND why it was imperative for us to speak out against such evil against God's Kingdom before leaving! I have been praying for answers to WHY. Today, I have them. I am also very inquisitive about mental health and the effects of evil spirits as it relate to generational family curses. This book explains a lot. I feel better equipped to be able to recognize and Stand My Ground against evil forces. So much idolatry and witchcraft is embedded into our culture and society, the unspiritual eye never even recognize or notice it!
DaybyDay
Narrator substandard
The story itself is good but the narrator mispronounced so many basic words which was very distracting.
Extremely hard to follow with the narrator. this guy couldn't pronounce anything past a 2 syllable word. You let me down audible or whoever hired this guy. Content was educational though. Not for the weak in Spirit.
MELISA COLLAZO
Great book but distracting because the narrator makes pronunciation errors and in certain sections reads the word twice. Great book though!
Benjamin S.
great information. MUST READ! God blessed this man to teach us how to he free from demonic possession and to learn.
Great content, awful narration.
This book was insightful and well written but the narration was of surprisingly poor quality and really distracted from the topic of the book. I would advise buying the book instead of the audio.
Dreamgirl787
wow great book
if you need guidance in spiritual warfare read this book. I'm going to read all his books.
Phoenician
Detailed and Thorough insight into this spirit.
loved this book. the narrator kept saying certain words incorrectly and it was a little annoying
Jackie Netkin
Amazing! Thank You for your Deliverance Ministry
I would love to have a written copy of the Ending Prayer...casting out the Demons of Mammon...and Jezebel.
Every Christian Should Read
A very detailed look into the spiritual realities the we all face. I recommend it
Programme reviewer
a great book
A must read for every minister of the gospel and every person seeking understanding and freedom from the grip of darkness

Google Takes on Amazon's Kindle in E-Book Battle
By Michelle Megna
Just when it seemed nothing could dampen the success of Amazon's Kindle, Google today announced it's entering the e-book market through a partner program that allows authors to sell digital versions of their books online.
"We've consistently maintained that we're committed to helping our partners find more ways to make their books accessible and available for purchase. By end of this year, we hope to give publisher partners an additional way to sell their books by allowing users to purchase access to Partner Program books online," Google's Gabriel Stricker told InternetNews.com.. We want to build and support a digital book ecosystem to allow our partner publishers to make their books available for purchase from any Web-enabled device."
Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) is currently dominating the nascent e-book space, after successful rollouts of the Kindle 2 in February and a large-screen version, Kindle DX, last month. Meanwhile, rivals including Barnes & Noble and Plastic Logic are scrambling to introduce their own respective answers to the Kindle, but they don't appear to pose the threat that Google (NASDAQ: GOOG) could with its resources, according to one analyst.
"Google could become a powerful competitor to Amazon in the e-book market. They have huge financial resources as well as links now to a large repository of scanned books that could be monetized, and they could work out deals with the publishers to make it worth their time and effort to place their books within a Google eBook store," Tim Bajarin, principal analyst at Creative Strategies, told InternetNews.com.
Furthermore, what makes the Google announcement notable is that the partner program appears to offer components that front-runner Amazon lacks with its proprietary system that's limited to iPhones, iPods and Kindles — variety in the way readers access the digital books, and perhaps, a revenue split that's more favorable for authors. Google has said it would allow publishers to set prices for e-books sold through the new service.
Bajarin agrees that for Google to emerge as a formidable Amazon rival, the company needs to be more author-friendly. "It's too early to tell what the revenue split would be, but they would have to give authors a better deal if they want to attract them to their site," he said.
Forrester analyst Sarah Rotman Epps also said she believes that Amazon's author revenue model is a weak link."
Publishers have a love-hate relationship with the Kindle. On the one hand, it gives them another distribution channel for their content. On the
other hand, as Dallas Morning News CEO James Moroney pointed out in his recent testimony to
the U.S Senate subcommittee on the future of newspapers, Amazon keeps 70 percent of the revenues
and leaves only 30 percent for publishers … . Other vendors will create more productive relationships with publishers,
giving publishers more control over the way their content is displayed and priced as well as
enabling ad serving," she wrote in the report "How Big is the eReader Opportunity?"
Another area where Amazon may be vulnerable is pricing, as e-readers don't come cheap — the Kindle 2 is $359. "It's hard to justify
a price tag of more than $300 when consumers can buy a serviceable netbook for the same price.
The race now is for the $249 price point, and Forrester anticipates that there will be at least one
product on the U.S. market at the $199 price point by late 2010," says Epps.
Author and pricing issues aside, perhaps the most critical component for a successful Google e-book service is the inclusion of a streamlined download and payment processing system, said Bajarin.
"For this to work, Google would have to have a more open platform and build out its own back-end download services tied to their payment system, but Google is a resourceful company and if anyone could emerge that could take on Amazon in this space it would be this search giant," he said.
The Kindle series is widely lauded for its content delivery, done in partnership with Sprint, in which readers wirelessly access and download e-books without having to hunt for Wi-Fi hotspots or pay for Internet connections.
In fact, e-book shipments are taking off, with worldwide shipments expected to grow from almost 1 million units in 2008 to close to 30 million units in 2013, according to an In-Stat report out today. The report cites Amazon as the leader with its Kindle lineup, due to its content delivery service.
In-Stat isn't the only research firm expecting huge gains in the e-reader space. "Competitors will attack Amazon's
market position by launching new features, expanding content beyond books, dominating markets
outside the U.S., reducing costs and improving relationships with publishers. While frequent book
readers drive device and content sales today, the next five years will see an explosion of the e-reader
textbook market, and in 10 years, the market will be driven by businesses going green in government,
education, health, and other sectors," Epps said.
Meanwhile, Epps predicts carriers will enter the e-book equation, which provides an opportunity for extra revenue, and though Google declined to comment, it could open the door to partnerships with mobile network operators.
"E-readers represent two new
revenue opportunities for mobile service providers. First, mobile operators can lease their
networks to support e-reader devices in a wholesale model, as Sprint currently does with
Amazon. Second, there's a potential revenue stream for selling eReader content direct to
consumers if they themselves become the device distributors, as Orange in France has tested
with its 3G Read&Go device for newspapers and books. Mobile operators control the network
on which the eReader ecosystem is based; companies such as Palm, which has a niche following
of e-book readers already, Research In Motion, which has a partnership with Fictionwise,
Verizon/Vodafone, and Virgin Mobile are well-positioned to seize at least part of the e-reader
Opportunity," says Epps.
On the Amazon front, meanwhile, the Kindle 2, is getting positive reviews — and likely making money though Amazon's policy is to refrain from releasing sales figures. It comes as no surprise that Google may want a slice of the pie.
"Amazon and Sprint are providing an easy-to-use, end-to-end content delivery solution for the consumer, which is essential for mass market adoption of an emerging technology. Rumors abound of new entrants to the e-book market, and the amount of digital content is only increasing. In-Stat reports that e-books represent a strong revenue opportunity for component suppliers, equipment manufacturers, and now wireless operators, alike," Stephanie Ethier, In-Stat analyst, said in a statement.
The news comes at a time when the digital book battle is heating up, as Amazon's Kindle 2 will be followed by the large-screen version, Kindle DX, targeted for newspaper audiences and publishers, due out later this year for $489. Amazon also recently scooped up Lexcycle, the maker of the most popular iPhone e-reader app in a bid to further boost its position in the e-book market.
Barnes & Noble (NYSE: BKS) entering the fray by buying its own app maker, Fictionwise, and the bookseller is rumored to be creating a device aimed squarely at the Kindle.
Amazon and Barnes & Noble aren't the only big-name competitors poised to battle it out in e-books, however. Sony and Google partnered to bolster Sony's digital reader division, which several years ago began offering Kindle-like e-readers and an e-book store.

"Johnny Bravvo has been my favorite Dj in Austin for many years. I was thrilled when I had the opportunity to hire him for my client, Dennis Quaid's suprise party for his wife's 40th birthday. Johnny really rocked it out and my favorite moment was when he played Footloose and Dennis got out on the dance floor and tore it up like he was in his 20's! The guests had such a great evening and Johnny really knew how to read the crowd and keep it going!"
"I have worked with Johnny for the last five years on more than 20 events. He is my go-to guy for events of all types (including my wedding!) and is always my number one recommendation to other people. Johnny is professional, experienced, and positive. He pays close attention to the event producers and crowd, giving them exactly what they want, but also keeping within his style. You can always count on Johnny to bring great energy to your party!"
"When you need an entertainment program to create a dynamically charged atmosphere delivered with the utmost professionalism and timeliness, than DJ Johnny Bravvo is it. I've had the pleasure of collaborating with DJ Johnny to create the musical programs for several events my company has hosted or for whom I served as a committee member and each time DJ Johnny has earned high marks. What's most important to me is professionalism and no matter the audience, the theme or reason for an event, DJ Johnny delivers. Can't wait for the next collaboration."
~ William Jackson, Founder and Publisher of InFluential Magazine and President of W. Jackson & Associates.
"I absolutely love using DJ Johnny Bravvo for my events. He brings the best out of a crowd with the perfect balance of our original vision for the party and his musical expertise"
"Johnny Bravvo is one of the best DJ's in the region. When I hosted an event recently, he was there to really make the party happen. The dance floor was crowded the whole evening. Johnny has a high 'get-it' factor and is a blast to work with"
"Johnny Bravvo brings an eclectic energy every time he is on the turntables. He would easily be identified as an entertainer as well as an entity. His brand brings a style commingled with a passion for music, and he has the ability to tailor his sounds for the each crowd"
"DJ Johnny Bravvo performs at many of our in-store events. He is always professional and our clients enjoy his beats"


Who needs an Extra Life? You do!
So we sit 50 days from this years Extra Life. We are in the middle of an effort to double the amount of registered gamers and we are trying to beat previous years in funds raised. I tweeted some today about the final push for some big recruitment before end of day Friday. From these tweets, some people had some questions. Becasue of these question, I decided to bullet point some things that you need to know about registering for Extra Life.
It is free to sign up and participate.
You do not have to go anywhere, you play from the comfort of your own home or your gaming location of choice.
When you register you can only choose one hospital to support. That choice is yours and if you choose to change the hospital, you just need to email support from your donation page.
We recommend that you get friends, family, co-workers, etc to sponsor you $1 an hour, bringing the total donated to the $24 to the event. Although, any amount is appreciated.
People who donate are donating a lump sum. It is expected that you will complete the 24 hours, in one sitting or over time in October.
You are not restricted to video games. Sports, poker, board games, tag, etc are all acceptable forms of participation.
You do not need to complete the time in one sitting, although it is recommended.
You can join a team, this is does not affect your donation or hospital. This is designed to be a support group, benchmark, or just to symbolize friendship.
The main participation date is October 16th, with a make up date on the following Saturday. It is encouraged to participate on this day. Not only because it is the scheduled date so you will have brothers in arms as you work through the 24 hours, but your tweets, facebook comments, blogs, social network, etc. will help create awareness and perhaps raise more money that will help more kids.
Raising $192 earns you a free t-shirt provided by Extra Life sponsors SplitReason.
Lastly, and this is important, 100% of the money raised goes to the Children's Miracle Network hospital you choose. There is zero overhead by the organizers in this event, it is all driven by volunteers.

There is also a support community where you may find out about events going on in your area.
So register, spread the word, or just support a gamer you know participating.

The US as a fading superpower
<?EM-dummyText [Drophead goes here] ?>
By Stephen KinzerJanuary 10, 2016, 12:00 a.m.
Yemenis gather around a crater reportedly caused by a Saudi-led airstrike targeting the outskirts of the capital Sanaa on Dec. 29.MOHAMMED HUWAIS
Fifteen years into the 21st century, it is clear that the United States faces an era full of new threats. Some are political and military. The most serious is psychological.
During this century, the United States will not dominate the world as it did during the last one. If Americans can adjust to this reality, there is hope for global stability. If we refuse — if we do not accept the relative decline in our power — our frustration may lead us to lash out in self-destructive ways.
Nations naturally rise and decline over the course of time. Those that survive the longest, like China and Iran, do so by riding the tides of history. Americans have no experience doing that. For us the tide has always been high. Over the course of the 20th century, our power grew steadily. We became accustomed to running the world. In the future, we will not run it. Nothing in our history prepares us for this looming change in our global status. We are not psychologically ready for it.
In the new world, our mightiest weapon, military power, will be steadily less valuable. A skill we have not developed, coalition-building among nations, will become the key to world power. To thrive in the 21st century, the United States needs a new set of tools. Most of all, we must recognize the reality of our changing role in the world.
History makes this difficult. It is always wrenching to lose power. Politics also stands in the way. Candidates compete with each other to promise bigger military budgets and more merciless wars. They feed the cheering fantasy that the "American century" can last forever.
Signs of the emerging new world are impossible to miss. A terror gang in the Middle East has seized territory, and we are forced to realize that despite all our military might, we cannot dislodge it without help from local partners. Russia openly defies us. Turkey, a NATO ally that was long our lap dog, ignores our pleas and goes its own way. Saudi Arabia launched a war without even consulting us.
Most challenging is our changing relationship with China. By mid-century, if not before, Americans will be faced with a reality we have never known: a rival that is more populous, richer, and more historically powerful than the United States. Our response to recent Chinese probes in the Pacific has been militaristic. It suggests that our policy toward China is stuck in the 20th-century "us-against-them" paradigm. If we pursue this policy, the long-term victor is likely to be them, not us. During the middle and later decades of this century, the United States will not be able to prevail over China in conflicts around China's borders. This may be difficult for Americans to grasp or accept.
The great security challenges of this century are global, ranging from terrorism to climate change. They can only be met by nations acting together. The United States, however, has rarely had to join coalitions of equals. We are used to telling our partners what to do. In the new age, we must persuade them and accommodate their interests. This requires willingness to compromise—something to which we are unaccustomed.
Great wars often explode at moments of tectonic geopolitical change: when rising states challenge a long-dominant power. The conflict is set off not by a challenger, but by the dominant power, which fears losing its top-dog status. Thucydides cited this as the reason for the Peloponnesian War 2,400 years ago: "It was the rise of Athens, and the fear that this inspired in Sparta, that made war inevitable."
The United States should not fear the rise of other powers. We reduce the prospect of conflict by adapting to the world as it changes. Our relative power will logically decline as other nations become richer and stronger. This historic inevitability may be a gift. A multipolar world is inherently more stable than one overseen by a single power. The United States has the tools we need for continued national success. It will be ours if we can make the psychological transition to a world we do not dominate.

Here are some snazzy birthday facts about 26th of November 1929 that no one tells you about. Don't wait a minute longer and jump in using the content links below. Average read time of 10 minutes. Enjoy!
What day was my birthday Nov 26, 1929?
November 26, 1929 was a Tuesday and it was the 330th day of the year 1929. It was the 48th Tuesday of that year. The next time you can reuse your old 1929 calendar will be in 2019. Both calendars will be exactly the same! This is assuming you are not interested in the dates for Easter and other irregular holidays that are based on a lunisolar calendar.
There are 219 days left before your next birthday. You will be 90 years old when that day comes. There have been 32,653 days from the day you were born up to today. If you've been sleeping 8 hours daily since birth, then you have slept a total of 10,884 days or 29.80 years. You spent 33% of your life sleeping. Since night and day always follow each other, there were precisely 1,106 full moons after you were born up to this day. How many of them did you see? The next full moon that you can see will be on May 18 at 21:13:00 GMT – Saturday.
Fun stat: Your first one billion seconds (1,000,000,000) happened sometime on August 4, 1961.
If a dog named Cassandra - a Fox Terrier breed, was born on the same date as you then it will be 376 dog years old today. A dog's first human year is equal to 15 dog years. Dogs age differently depending on breed and size. When you reach the age of 6 Cassandra will be 40 dog years old. From that point forward a small-sized dog like Cassandra will age 4 dog years for every human year.

if ((Point1.x < Point2.x) && (Point1.x < Point2.x)) ?
Will be good idea to add such cases in test.
It is catching these cases.
I can add it as a test, no prob. I'm never against more tests.
I have more cases implemented, but I prefer landing this piece by piece to let people review it and report false-positive.
x == 10 && x <= 12  (x <= 12 is redundant),  and many other cases with bitwise operations.
I need time to deal correctly with False positives. And, I'm not sure it will be part of the same matcher. Will see..
if ((Point2.x > Point1.x) && (Point1.x < Point2.x)) ?
I believe the AreEquivalentExpression should be extended, and probably llifted to utils.
Here again, I propose to do it incrementally.
In this case, you need to implement the associative operators.
Tested over LLVM code, no false positives.
This is to some degree similar to comparing llvm::FoldingSetNodeIDs created using Stmt::Profile. However it's only useful to check for identical expressions and won't work, if you're going to extend this to equivalent expressions.
Please enclose true and false in backquotes.
BTW, have you seen the alpha.core.IdenticalExpr static analyzer checker?
alexfh added subscribers: zaks.anna, jordan_rose, fahlgren, danielmarjamaki.
Anna, Jordan, and whoever else is interested in the alpha.core.IdenticalExpr checker (lib/StaticAnalyzer/Checkers/IdenticalExprChecker.cpp), it looks like Etienne has reinvented a large part of this checker as a clang-tidy check. I'm not sure which of these supports more cases and has more false positives (given that the alpha.core.IdenticalExpr checker was there for quite a while, but IIUC, this clang-tidy check has been tested on a huge code base with pretty good results).
is the alpha.core.IdenticalExpr checker going to be released in the near future?
is anyone actively working on it?
given that Etienne seems to be planning to continue actively working on the clang-tidy analog of that static analyzer checker, are you fine to move all of this checker's (alpha.core.IdenticalExpr) functionality to clang-tidy?
more generally, should we officially recommend to use clang-tidy (instead of the static analyzer) for writing AST-based checks that don't require any path-based analysis?
Yes, I looked at it. The AreEquivalentExpression is pretty much a variant of that code (a simplification).
For now, there are overlap between both checkers. I think 'alpha.core.IdenticalExpr' is in "alpha"-mode because there are too many false-positives related to cases like macro/floating-points (detecting NaN,...). The current checker has a pretty-low false-positive ratio. But, some redundant expressions won't be reported.
i.e.   A[(3) - (3)]  which is frequent in bison-generated files won't be reported.

Exact. There is plan to extend the notion of "equivalent".
I think we should lift this to "utils", and maybe we can also provide a "isIdenticalExpression" based on FoldingSet.
