UKHospitality has warned against new legislation that would impact pubs and customers at airports.
The Government has this morning launched a consultation on the impact of airside licensing on alcohol-related disruptive behaviour at airports.
UKHospitality Chief Executive Kate Nicholls said: "New legislation would be unnecessary and unfair and demonise pub-goers who deserve the right to enjoy a drink when going on holiday and the vast majority do so responsibly. The long flight delays of yesteryear are thankfully rarer, so people aren't in airport pubs for as long. The problem lies more with drinking duty-free purchases on board, which is already illegal but poorly enforced.

Seaside rooms - The gardens at the hotel have been so successful that in certain rooms, you can only see the sea through tree branches. For this reason the hotel calls these rooms seaside rooms.

We returned to the room to find that they had laid out a bottle of water. This was a nice touch after a long journey and showed that there was management who cared. C from London.

Cloud putting crimp in traditional software, hardware sales: Gartner
by IDG Reporter
July 15, 2012, 8:44 am July 15, 2012
Enterprise spending on cloud computing growing at a faster rate than overall IT spending will pose a challenge to legacy hardware and software vendors, Gartner cloud forecaster Ed Anderson says.
Cloud computing is expected to grow 19% in 2012, becoming a $109 billion industry compared to a $91 billion market last year. By 2016, it's expected to be a $207 billion industry, according to Anderson's latest findings. That compares to the 3% growth expected in the overall global IT market. While it's true that the $109 billion cloud market represents just a 3% chunk of the overall $3.6 trillion spent on IT globally, Anderson says it's still responsible, in part, for a slowdown in growth for traditional on-premise hardware and software sales.
Software delivery is shifting from a traditional license sale to install an application on-premise, to a per-user cloud-based software-as-a-services (SaaS) model. Meanwhile, hardware is shifting from on-premise capital expenditures to off-premise operational expenditures.
In the long term, Anderson says, the cloud model will create new IT spending opportunities. Integration, customisation, hybrid cloud and on-premise cloud installations will all grow in significance as cloud adoption continues. "There will be some short-term decline, but in the long term, it will level out," he says.
In Gartner's latest quarterly IT spending report, the research firm for the first time broke out cloud computing as a separate forecast category, providing an in-depth analysis of current and future cloud spending trends. The hottest growth in the cloud market in the coming year will be in infrastructure as a service (IaaS), which is expected to grow by 41%. Management and security is the second-hottest cloud growth area, expected to rise 27.2%, with platform as a service (26.6%), SaaS (17.4%) and business process as a service (15%) rounding out the top five. "The cloud market is growing at a pretty rapid clip," Anderson says. "Cloud services within the broader IT spending market are still small, but the growth rate looks promising."
Meanwhile, computing hardware sales are expected to rise only 3.4% this year to $420 billion, which compares to 7.4% growth last year. Enterprise software, after increasing 9.8% last year, is expected to reach $281 billion this year, a 4.3% growth clip.
Examples of Anderson's predictions about cloud's promise can be seen across the market. Some startup e-commerce sites, like Coupa, don't own any infrastructure and have decided to run their entire company from the Amazon Web Services cloud. Other companies are taking a more measured approach to embracing the cloud.
GFI Software, which provides a range of IT service management software products, including infrastructure, security and email services, recently announced a plan to transition all of its software offerings to a cloud-based SaaS delivery model. "We have to do it, it's the wave of the future," says CEO Walter Scott. "Customers want simplicity, and the cloud is the simplest way to deliver a software service." The cloud offers faster deployment for consumers and easier management. In a cloud-based model GFI will be able to automatically install security patches or other updates from a central point and have those distributed to all of the application's users.
It's still a transition for the market though, Scott says, and not all customers are ready to fully embrace the cloud. Many European companies are adopting the technology at a slower pace than U.S. counterparts. GFI will continue to offer on-premise installations as well as cloud-based services as the company transitions its dozens of applications to a hosted model.

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is a new national system of providing funds to individuals with disabilities, to assist them with their daily care needs. If you work in the healthcare industry, you've no doubt heard about the NDIS. However, there is still a lot of confusion across the board about what it means for providers and recipients, and when exactly the changes apply.
The NDIS was passed as an Act in Federal Parliament in March 2013 by then Prime Minister Julia Gillard. It was created with the aim of giving people with disabilities more choice around how, when, and where they access care, and to increase the certainty of funding for those with genuine care requirements.
Trials of the scheme began rolling out back in July 2013. After the initial successful trials, staggered commencement dates spanning 2013 to 2019 were then scheduled across Australia. The scheme will be accessible to all eligible Australians by 2020.
Fortunately, the ACT was one of the first states to begin the scheme, with the NDIS beginning in the state on the 1st of July 2014. NDIS funding and services are currently available to all eligible ACT residents under the age of 65. Preliminary reports show that the effect of this new scheme are, overall, a positive step forward, with most surveyed recipients reporting increased access to support and an improvement in choice and participation around their care needs.
Transport to community, social, work and daily life activities.
Workplace help so a participant can get or keep a job.
Therapeutic supports including behaviour support.
Help with household tasks to allow the participant to maintain their home.
Help by trained people in aids or equipment assessment, set up and training.
As a state, the ACT is set to reap many improvements from the implementation of the NDIS. While improved quality care for the individual is at the centre of the scheme, many other stakeholders will also benefit. One report estimates that the use of the scheme will add an additional $367 million dollars to the state economy.
This economic boost comes from a three pronged increase in contributions. Firstly, there will be an increase in the number of people with disabilities in paid employment. Secondly, hundreds of unpaid carers will now have added support that will allow them to return to paid work if they choose. And, finally, the number of new positions created within the healthcare industry means that the industry is booming.
However, while the increase in funding means there is more work available in the disability support sector, the need for these workers to be compassionate, personable, and flexible is at an all time high. This is due to one of the key factors in the program – more client directed decisions. This means that the recipients of the service, or their representatives, have more control than ever before over who they choose to engage.
Simply put, if a person receiving NDIS funding doesn't like the carer or the service provider they've engaged, it is now easier than ever for them to take their business elsewhere. Ideally, this increased ability of care recipients to choose where to spend their funding will mean an increase in the standard of care across the industry.
As one of the wide range of registered providers in the ACT, MAC Healthcare is proud to be part of the community of healthcare professionals offering a wider range of choice, flexibility, and community inclusion to those of our clients living with disabilities. If you are a qualified professional looking for either casual, short term, or long term placement in the area of disability support, please head to our Job Board. If you are a person with a disability, or the representative of a person with a disability, and would like to discuss engaging our services, please contact us here.

Greece needs 'far less' money than agreed in third bailout: ESM head
BERLIN (Reuters) - Greece will need less in emergency loans from international lenders than originally agreed in its third bailout program due to a better-than-expected budgetary developments, the head of the euro zone bailout fund was reported on Monday as saying.
A piggybank painted in the colours of the Greek flag with a 20 euro banknote in it's slot, stands amongst various euro coins in this picture illustration taken in Berlin, Germany June 30, 2015. REUTERS/Pawel Kopczynski
Klaus Regling told German newspaper Bild that at the end of Greece's money-for-reforms package in August 2018, the European Stability Mechanism (ESM) will "probably have paid out far less than the agreed maximum amount of 86 billion euros" because the Greek budget was developing better than expected.
The comments came shortly before euro zone finance ministers will meet in Brussels to assess Greece's progress in fulfilling the conditions of its bailout.
Bavarian Finance Minister Markus Soeder called for a tougher stance in negotiations with Greece, suggesting Athens should only get fresh aid from its lenders against additional collateral such as cash, gold or real estate.
"We need a plan B," Soeder told Bild newspaper.
The review of the Greek bailout program has been beset by delays and disputes between Athens and its European Union and International Monetary Fund creditors. As disagreement has arisen over Greece's fiscal targets, debt relief and promised reforms, fears have grown that Europe could face a new financial crisis.
Greece has said it cannot cut pensions any further as demanded by the International Monetary Fund while some of its European lenders, led by Germany, have rejected the IMF's demand to grant it debt relief of some sort - perhaps on payments and maturity - now.
The Fund has insisted on debt relief and precautionary fiscal measures to ensure that Athens can meet its fiscal targets before it will consider participating in the bailout.
The German government, gearing up for election in September, opposes debt relief for Greece as demanded by the IMF, and says the current program can only continue if the Fund joins in.
The IMF's participation remains unclear and this question is likely to be one of the main talking points when German Chancellor Angela Merkel and IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde meet on Wednesday.
The IMF declined to comment on a German magazine report on Friday that it was likely to contribute up to 5 billion euros ($5.3 billion) to a third bailout package for Greece, saying its views on the deal had not shifted.
The German magazine Der Spiegel said in an unsourced report that European lenders were now expecting the IMF to contribute a sum of this size after first having hoped for 16 billion euros.

Is it possible that the church is concerned about growth only until it experiences it? We pray that our numbers will increase, but we get slightly uncomfortable as soon as the little church we love starts to grow. Growth means change, and we don't particularly like change. Change can be painful, but might adapting to that change be what the gospel is all about?
The early church didn't talk about "going" to church; they talked more about "being" the church. Being the church requires having a heart more like Christ, to have a heart that is growing in its love for the broad world that Jesus loves.

Two Marine Helicopters Collide In Hawaii
2016-01-16 18:45:44 CRIENGLISH.com Web Editor: Chu Yiming
Soldiers and helicopters from the Coast Guard and the Honolulu Fire Department start to search for survivors at the scene of the crash off the north shore of Oahu Island in Hawaii on January 16, 2016. [Photo: Xinhua]
Bad weather conditions are expected to hamper the search for 12 US Marines missing at sea, after two marine helicopters collided on Friday near Hawaii's Oahu Island.
US Coast Guard spokesman Lieutenant Scott Carr said authorities only learned of the crash after it was spotted by a civilian.
"We did not receive a mayday call. The Coast Guard was notified by a civilian on the beach who had seen the aircraft flying and then saw them disappear. They did see a fireball and then notified the Coast Guard and then subsequently we got a second notification within just a few minutes of a report of a flare so it was a flare and a fireball. Were they one in the same? Were they different? We don't know."
Ships and aircraft from the coast guard, US Navy, as well as the local police and fire department are currently searching for the missing.
Rescuers have spotted debris off Oahu island's north shore but did not find signs of passengers.
The two Marine helicopters were on a routine training mission when they collided.


Dr. Morbius creates Robbie after having his intellectual capacity doubled by the Krell machines. The robot is a man-sized, highly capable domestic servant receiving orders aurally, and responding as needed with a synthesized voice of his own.
Robbie exits the cockpit of his vehicle.
Robbie invites the men inside.
Robbie first appears steering a special vehicle to pick up the officers. It is specially built for him, accommodating his inability to sit down. From this position, he can wirelessly maneuver the vehicle, and even turn his head around to address passengers.
Despite his having only two wide, flat fingers on each hand, he is able to grasp and manipulate objects as a human would. To demonstrate this, Morbius has him aim and fire Commander Adams'' weapon at a nearby tree. How he pulled the trigger is something of an unanswered question since his hands are hidden from view as he fires, but he does so all the same. This makes him quite useful as an interface, since he is able to use any of the devices already in the environment. Additionally, should he become unavailable, humans can carry on in his absence.
Alta thanks Robbie for offering to make her a new dress.
Given that he must interact with humans, who have social needs, his stature helps ingratiate him. In one scene Alta wishes to express her gratitude for his promise of a new dress, and she gives him a hug. Though he does not hug back, she still smiles through and after the expression. Had he been less anthropometric, she would have had to express her thanks in some other way that was less pleasant to her.
Robbie warms the coffee for Alta and Farman.
In addition to being physically suited for human interaction, he is quite socially aware and able to anticipate basic human needs. In one scene, as Lt. Farman walks with Alta towards a cold pot of coffee, without having been asked, Robbie reaches down to press a button that warms the coffee by the time the two of them arrive. He also knows to leave immediately afterwards to give the two some privacy.
With eyes behind his head, Robbie shoos a pesky monkey.
He even has "eyes in the back of his head," or a 360-degree field of vision for surveillance of his surroundings. In one charming scene he combines this observation with small nonlethal lasers to shoo away a pesky monkey trying to steal fruit behind his back.
Morbius shows Robbie''s "sub-electronic dilemma" when asked to harm a human.
Addressing safety concerns, Robbie is built to obey Asimov''s first law of robotics. After having his creator instruct him to point a weapon at Adams, and "aim right between the eyes and fire," Robbie''s servos begin to click and whir noisily. His dome glows a pinkish-red as blue sparks leap across it. Morbius explains, ""He''s helpless. Locked in a sub-electronic dilemma between my direct orders and his basic inhibitions against harming rational beings."" When the command is canceled, the sparks stop immediately and the red fades over a few seconds.
This failsafe seems quite serious, as Dr. Morbius explains that if he were to allow the state to continue, that Robbie would "blow every circuit in his body." Since the fault of such a state is with the one issuing the command and not Robbie, it seems a strange design. It would be like having your email server shut down because someone is trying to send an email infected with a virus. It would make much more sense for Robbie to simply disregard the instruction and politely explain why.
One other portable device that bears mention is Lt. Farman's microfiche reader.
When the officers originally learn Morbius'' name, Farman fetches the device from a drawer. It is a small, metallic square box about the size of a pack of playing cards. He withdraws one of a set of thin transparent sheets of microfiche held in a pocket on the back, and inserts it to a slot at the top of the device. The device magnifies the contents of the sheet for the viewer, who can scroll by pulling the microfiche up and down. The particular microfiche displays all of the manifest information from the Bellerophon expedition, which Farman uses to verify Morbius' information.
Farman looks for Julia Marsin on the Bellerephon's manifest.
Though this seems like miniaturization that is far ahead of its time, microforms and optical magnification had been around and used to compactly store data since the mid 1800s. This device is an extension of these optical concepts, rather than modern digital media which only reached similar portable sizes in the early 2000s.
A friend pointed out that as of today (September 16), Amazon's out of stock on the book. Don't worry, though. For new and relatively-unknown authors, they only order very small amounts for their stock. They'll be ordering more soon I'm sure, but in the meantime, the publisher is a more reliable source. Just head to http://rosenfeldmedia.com/books/make-it-so/ and look to the right side of the screen for the order buttons.
Posted in ~ Book news.
The C-57D is a military vessel with much of its technology feeling like that of a naval vessel.
Lt. Farman navigates the ship towards Altair.
The navigator, called an astrogator, sits at a station on the bridge facing a large armillary. He has a binocular scope into which he can peer to see outside the ship. Within easy reach to the left is a table-top panel of concentrically arranged buttons. To his right is a similar panel. Directly in front of him, beyond the scope, is a massive armillary that is the centerpiece of the bridge.
A model of United Planets Cruiser C-57D sits at the center of the ship's armillary.
A model of the C-57D sits at the center of a transparent globe, which rotates in turn inside of another transparent globe. The surface of the interior globe is detailed with a graduated ring around its equator, semi-meridians extending from the poles, and a number of other colorful graduations. The outer, stationary globe has markings on the surface, which seem to describe stars and major constellations as dots and lines.
The utility of the armillary is somewhat questionable. From a relatively fixed position like the Earth, the celestial sphere doesn't change. But while astronavigating, the celestial sphere would change. Even though Altair is a relatively close to Earth, the change in position of the stars on the celestial sphere would likely be significant to correct positioning. So, for this to be useful, the markings on the outer sphere should be dynamic. Of course in the short sequence we see the armillary in use, we would not see the markings change, but there are no visual cues that it is dynamic in this way.
Additionally it should be noted that the biggest and most important things with which Lt. Farman would be concerned, i.e. the star Altair and planet Altair IV, are not represented in the display at all and represents a major failing of the design.
The crew makes it safely through decelleration.
One of the movie''s technology conceits is that deceleration from light speed is a shaky business. To protect the crew during this phase of travel, they stand atop deceleration stations. These small cylindrical pedestals have matching extensions from the ceiling that look vaguely like circular ventilation grills. Ten seconds before deceleration, the lights dim, a beeper sounds ten times, and the crew members step onto the pedestals. They fade from view in a beam of fuzzy aquamarine light. They fade back into view as the blue light disappears. During the period when the crew has passed from view, one would expect the ship to be shaking violently as discussed, but this doesn''t happen. Nonetheless, as the crew steps out of the station, a few are holding their necks as if in pain.

Jack on the Go #403: "Angriest Whopper – BURGER KING"
April 22, 2016 ~ Ashleigh Haze	~ Leave a comment
Originally uploaded: 15 April 2016
Here we have a small Winton-esque vignette of the Scalfani family out and engaged in their primary source of meals. Recently we discussed both Jack Junior's long-simmered resentment of his father, as well as Jack's attempt to chase a somewhat current youtube trend. Jack Junior is in a much better mood here, presumably because his mother is around, despite his typical teenage moodiness. Can you really blame poor Jack Junior, though? He's had so much of his life filmed and put up on the internet involuntarily, and he's at an age where he is particularly self-conscious about how the world perceives him. Now all he wants is a fucking burger and for his trouble he has a camera shoved in his face.
I don't particularly care for fast food (I'm not particularly against it either), so it's clear this video isn't particularly for me. With that said at least there's the a recognisable audience for this, which is more than I can say for a lot of Jack's work. It's conceivable that someone might be interested in a new fast food product, clear publicity stunt that it is. But, and this is the important thing, it's not even his idea. I've mentioned over and over again that Jack is merely copying what others have done, what's seen to be popular. He can only copy, never create.
Jack on the Go #402: "Taproom 12 Ave. South – Nashville, TN"
I rather enjoy reading the work of restaurant critics such as Pete Wells or Jay Rayner. I don't live in New York or London and I rarely have a chance to travel out there, but their work is so enjoyable and on the pulse of food trends that they're often as evocative and educational as they are entertaining. As much as they can give the reader a very well developed sense of the geography as they traverse their local and national food scenes, you also understand that no matter what their subject matter they would be an entertaining read (Mr Rayner is in fact a published author). Beyond that, there's also the undeniable sense of living vicariously through their writing. You and I will never in our lifetime have the funds, not even to mention the sheer time necessary to devote to restaurants. As much as I can complain and find fault with the "review as entertainment" in 2016, being able to eat words off a page can be an undeniable pleasure.
I bring this up solely because, as per usual, I have no idea what I'm meant to get out of watching Jack eat. He loves to call these little escapades of his "reviews" but he never says anything substantial about any of the restaurants. Most of the video is Jack and his friends in mid shots talking, saying it's awesome or less commonly recently, saying that they don't like it. Jon takes a seemingly resentful pot-shot at a group of women having a hen's do. In the autumn(?) of Jack's life being posted to youtube, does he mean that we live vicariously through him? My interpretation is that he feels everything that he does is inherently interesting to his audience and that yes, one watching his pathetic life on youtube is meant to enjoy it as Jack does.
The problem here is that there's very little joy in Jack's life. His ability to present food, any food at all, to the viewer in a way that's appetising is limited to loud permutations of "Mmmm" and "Wow" and "Amazing", and what's more he's not discerning. He can certainly be angry or throw a tantrum, but his complete lack of knowledge combined with the clear fact that he doesn't now, nor has he ever, eaten particularly well doesn't paint a picture of joie de vivre. It paints a picture of a downtrodden man for whom things like excessive cheese or house-made pickles, or simply the concept or fresh, tasty food is an unfathomable magic trick.
Cooking with Jack #776: "Lemon Curd Chicken With Roasted Carrots"
I make a rule of not correcting Jack's technique or his recipes because if I did I would this little side project of mine could easily top tens of thousands of words. However it also makes videos like this hard to criticise, where Jack just cooks something.
…is what I would say if I didn't keep finding out new and terrible things about Jack. It's somewhat overwhelming, to be perfectly honest, to continually find out new and more horrid things Jack hasn't done in his past (like beat his family) but continues to do.
Lemon curd seems to be much like Nutella and the flat white: Extant for a long time outside of the United States, suddenly discovered. Ah, but even so only then ingenuity of the Americans could apply it to chicken. I like citrus with chicken a lot, and I'm even a fan of sweeter flavours in meat dishes, but I'm not sure what the sweetness of lemon curd adds to the dish.
In true Jack fashion he steals not one but two recipes for this dish, one for lemon curd and one for lemon curd chicken. And of course, below these stolen recipes is a link to Jack's (ugly, ad-riddled, mostly content free) website where he takes credit for them!
See what I mean? This rabbit hole never ends. For every terrible thing I uncover about Jack there's ten more I need to consider. It's something I never expected when I started this.
Cooking with Jack #775: "Which Taki's Is The Best? – FOOD REVIEW"
April 21, 2016 ~ Ashleigh Haze	~ 1 Comment
Jack has been doing a lot of these very youtube-esque "food reviews" recently, and I would attribute it to three main factors: One, they're very easy to do. Two, they're typically rather current, and Jack is woeful at chasing trends. Three, they're growing popular in the youtube landscape, a subset of "review-as-entertainment" where a colourful personality and the ability to eat empty calories vicariously count for much. But another major factor is almost certainly his crumbling relationship with his grumpy teenage son. Yes teenagers can be moody and attempt to distance themselves from their parents, but the fact that Jack Junior willingly engages in physical affection with his mother and not his father is very telling in this regard. Given this it's not surprising Jack uses food as a lure and his "show" as an excuse to hang out with his son, especially after years of not allowing him on the show, using appearances as a carrot with which to encourage good behaviour.
My own intense hatred of Jack doesn't appear to have a patch on Jack Junior, and I assume it's because I'm not blood related to him and don't have to spend any time around him. I can't say I blame him. He soils the good name of the Beastie Boys, a band I assume he's never actually listened to given his Milquetoast predilections. Perhaps he heard "(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (to Party!)" once and took it at face value? That's the only explanation I can think of. Much like Deadpool or his Italian heritage he attaches himself to things he thinks other people will find cool.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, rest in peace MCA.
Cooking with Jack #774: "What's Behind The Mystery Door? – FOOD GARDENING"
So we finally get an answer to the """"mystery"""", and all my jokes about some kind of torture evidence dungeon aside the reveal that it's some kind of beaten up fibreglass tub flooded with red light allayed absolutely zero concerns I had. Jack puts out what I'm assuming was meant to be a drum roll, but sounded more like the Jaws theme, which also didn't help. At this point his incompetence is immeasurable. I'm not convinced the mathematics checks out, the cost of rearing chicks to adulthood surely outweighs the cost of buying them grown, but then again I don't live on a farm. I do live in the Australian suburbs, however, where people attempt to have their own chickens with alarming regularity, so I'm potentially more experienced than one might think.
Jack has very little to do with this video, so it's hard to criticise. I do think it's a good thing for people to understand where their food comes from, the entire farming, husbandry and eventual slaughter and butchering (I do understand that these chickens are meant for eggs not meat, but they'll get too old to lay some day). This is something Jack fundamentally disagrees with or at least doesn't particularly care about so I'm not entirely sure what his raison d'etre is. He continues to use the all caps "FOOD GARDENING" which shockingly has become more and more of a misnomer as the series has continues. Never would've guessed that! I do hope Mr Brewer is keeping well and also keeping his family well away from Jack. I do doubt that he knows anything about the danger of having Jack around so I can only hope for the best.
Cooking With Jack #773: "Lazy Man's Pasta Dinner"
Jack, forever waddling far behind the curve, finally bring us the most recent unappetising internet phenomenon. Ripped wholesale from Martha Stewart, as is his wont-most all of his recipes are stolen from somewhere, which does remind me of something. Normally I focus on his child abuse and racism, but his content isn't even original. Jack's made an entire… well, not "career" certainly. Racket? Jack's made an entire racket out of stealing other people's content with no attribution, and getting mad when people call him out on it. The list of Jack's incompetencies and undesirable traits grows far too long to list every single time, but I think his blatant content stealing deserves more of my time.
Jack describes this recipe as "rustic" which according to Martha Stewart's advertising copy (that he hasn't read, clearly) it might be. Jack positions himself as an authority on these things, when perhaps he should acknowledge that he was doing something popular. Despite his much-vaunted Italian heritage he's never shown much of an interest or aptitude for Italian cuisine. Oh he knows the absolute basics, red sauce, pasta et cetera, but beyond that he's as white bread and divorced from his heritage as is possible. And he still doesn't even really "get" cooking, he buys not one but three packages of basil for the measly handful of leaves that end up going into the dish.
This is another sponsored episode, and I'll get in touch with Audible in due course. As of now no company has responded to my inquiries into why they continue to sponsor Jack, which is a shame. I guess people want their products associated with domestic violence and racism. Once Jack ends up on the news for committing a violent hate crime I'm sure companies like PBR, Nomiku, Zelite and Slap Ya Mama will finally attempt to distance themselves from him.
Cooking with Jack #772: "How To Cook Eggs In Pressure Cooker"
We're a long way from Jack refusing to buy free range eggs because they cost 20 cents more. Some might argue that Jack has grown as a person, become more educated about the world and food than he was in 2009. To that I say: Jack is incapable of learning, and only parrots what he has read or been told. There's no real reason for him to get what are, prima facie, rather nice eggs other than the fact that they cost on dollar. He can't even formulate a reason, he just tosses around buzzwords (no chemicals?!) because he knows based on experience that it's the right thing to say. It's rudimentary Pavlovian response and attempting to prop himself up as an expert in food and cooking. We never see Jack get excited about ingredients, unless of course it's putting too much cheese or sugar onto a dish. He's even said, repeatedly, that he doesn't care about using fresh ingredients. His idea of using "premium" ingredients is meat that's been in his freezer for over a year and tinned corn. I ask you, kind reader, does he genuinely care about the quality of his food and the well-being of the animals it comes from? Or is it all a ruse designed to make himself look good?
During my childhood I thought of the pressure cooker as relic of the 1970s, gone the same way as the fondue set and the key party: My not childhood saw the rise of modernist cuisine and the reintroduction of the pressure cooker as a marvel of speed and consistency. I appreciate that a pressure cooker is probably a good way to do this, and the way Jack does it… seems to be okay? They look a little overcooked for how I like my hard boiled eggs, but honestly I can't find fault. We've come to expect so little of Jack that basic competency is a high water mark and so I'll grant him that, at least. He even explains a little of why using a pressure cooker is preferable. All things considered I suppose I can grant this video a stamp of "tolerable".
I leave you with this: Jack's bloated, beluga whale-like appearance and tendency towards mugging often produces hilarious images, and this one from an accidental pause during the video was too good to not share.


The Kino Flo Tegra is the bigger brother to the Kino Flo Diva coming in at twice the size ( 4ft ). Like the Diva, the Tegra is an efficient soft light which uses either daylight or tungsten fluorescent bulbs to give a beautiful key light source on a big scale. Perfect for lighting larger scenes whilst maintaining a natural look.
You can switch between using 4 bulbs or 2 and the system is fully dimmable from the built in ballast on the back of the light.
Our Kino Flo Tegras come with a honeycomb louver ( aka egg crate ) for directing the light source, a silk flozier sheet to soften the light further still and a c-stand.

"I'm the best! Or am I?": Academic self-concepts and self-regulation in kindergarten

In this paper, we examined how kindergarteners' self-evaluation biases are related to behavioural self-regulation (SR) and learning goal orientation (GO). According to educational research and practice, fostering high and optimistic academic self-concepts promotes the setting of challenging goals and initiates effective behavioural SR processes. However, research on metacognition states that it is a match between academic self-concept and abilities that provides the optimal conditions for behavioural SR and a learning GO. There is theoretical and empirical evidence in favour of both positions, yet the correlates of self-evaluative tendencies may differ with children's different levels of achievement, which are rarely considered. This cross-sectional study used response surface analysis, an innovative research methodology capable of assessing the complex interaction of academic self-concept and academic abilities on the behavioural SR and GO of 147 kindergarten children (M = 6.47 years, SD = 0.39 years). Polynomial regression models were used to test the presence of a fit pattern in empirical data and offer a new perspective on the interaction of academic self-concept and academic abilities. Results showed that a fit is generally associated with better behavioural SR and a learning GO but that correlates of academic self-concept differ with different achievement levels and outcome measures. This study extends current knowledge, as it offers important insights on how to conceptualise and pursue questions regarding self-concepts and behavioural SR. At an applied level, the findings indicate that interventions with kindergarteners that target SR should take the interactions between self-evaluation biases and ability level into account.

Tommy Quaid (23 April 1957 – 10 October 1998) was an Irish sportsperson.  He played hurling at various times with his local clubs Feohanagh-Castlemahon and Effin and was the goalkeeper on the Limerick senior inter-county team from 1976 until 1993.  Quaid was regarded as one of the greatest goalkeepers of his generation.

Biography

Tommy Quaid was born in Charleville, County Cork in 1957. The son of Bridie (née Collins) and Jack Quaid, he was born into a family that had a strong association with hurling. His father was one of the key players on the Limerick team which beat London in the 1954 All-Ireland junior final. He won a senior Munster title the following year when a Mick Mackey-trained team shocked Clare in the provincial decider. Quaid's five children all followed in their father's footsteps on the hurling field.  Séamus Quaid was a stalwart of the Feohanagh club until he emigrated to Australia. John Quaid went on to represent his county at minor and under 21 levels while Pat Quaid also served as a member of the Limerick under-21 hurling panel. Noreen Quaid also represented her County and local club in Feoghangh.

The Quaid family moved to Feohanagh, County Limerick when Tommy was just a few years old.  He was educated at the local national school before later attending secondary school in nearby Newcastle West.

Quaid trained as a fitter with the local Golden Vale company and later set up his own engineering business. In retirement from inter-county hurling he built up his business.  In 1998, however, tragedy struck.  While working on the Credit Union building in Charleville, the place of his birth, Quaid fell twenty feet from some scaffolding and landed on his back, hitting his head in the process.  He was immediately rushed to hospital, however, he died from his injuries several days later on 10 October 1998.

Quaid's sons Tomás and Nicky represented Limerick at underage levels and were members of the Effin team that lost the 2007 Limerick Junior 'A' hurling final to a Caherline team.  Nickie Quaid now plays in goal for the Limerick senior hurling team.

Playing career

Club

Quaid played his club hurling with his local Feohanagh-Castlemahon club. In spite of being a goalkeeper at inter-county level he played as a forward during most of his club career and, more often than not, he also served as the team's free-taker.  Quaid's club career got off to a less than auspicious start.  After losing back-to-back minor finals he subsequently joined the club's under-21 team.  Success, however, also eluded him in this grade as he suffered the heartbreak of losing four consecutive Under-21 West Division finals.  Quaid's most successful hour came in 1990 when he captained Feohanagh-Castlemahon to a West Limerick senior hurling title.  Unfortunately he never won a county senior title.  In later years he played his club hurling with Effin, where he won three South Limerick junior hurling titles.

Inter-county

Quaid's performances at club level brought him to the attentions of the inter-county selectors.  He was passed over for inter-county duty on the Limerick minor team in 1973, however, he joined the side the following year as goalkeeper. He spent an unsuccessful two-year spell with the Limerick minors.  Quaid later joined the county under-21 hurling team, however, in spite of a disastrous Munster final appearance in 1977, he enjoyed little success.

In 1975 Quaid joined the Limerick senior hurling team, making his debut in a National Hurling League quarter-final against Kilkenny. The young goalkeeper, however, took stage fright and had a nightmare of a game.  By 1976 Quaid had redeemed himself and took over from Séamus Horgan as first-choice goalkeeper for the championship.

Quaid's side contested the Munster final 1976, however, Cork were victorious on that occasion as Limerick went into decline. They were completely trounced again in 1979 on a score line of 2–14 to 0–9 as Cork captured a record-equaling fifth Munster title in-a-row.

In 1980 Cork were going for a sixth Munster Championship in succession.  For the fourth time in six years Limerick provided the opposition in the provincial decider.  After an exciting seventy minutes Cork's hopes were dashed by 2–14 to 2–10 as Quiad collected a first Munster winners' medal. This victory allowed Limerick a save passage to the All-Ireland final where Galway were the opponents.  Galway got off to a good start and took a 2–7 to 1–5 lead at half-time.  Éamonn Cregan had other ideas and single-handedly launched the Limerick counter-attack.  Over the course of the game he scored 2–7, including an overhead goal and a point in which he showed the ball to Conor Hayes and nonchalantly drove the ball over the bar. It was not enough to stem the tide and Galway went on to win the game. It was the county's first All-Ireland title since 1923 and, ironically, Limerick were the defeated team on that occasion as well.

Limerick retained their provincial crown in 1981.  Clare were defeated on that occasion by 3–12 to 2–9 giving Quiad his second Munster medal. The subsequent All-Ireland semi-final saw Limerick take on Offaly.  It was the first meeting of these two sides in the history of the hurling championship.  In a low-scoring game both sides finished level and a replay was necessary.  The second game took place a fortnight later at Croke Park and it turned out to be an exciting affair.  Both sides upped their game, however, Limerick were still defeated by 4–16 to 2–17.

Following back-to-back Munster triumphs Limerick went into decline in the championship.  Quaid's side did have some notable victories in the National League.  In 1984 he won his first National League medal following a 3–16 to 1–9 victory over Wexford.  The win was all the more special as it was the centenary year of the Gaelic Athletic Association.  A second National League title was collected by Quaid in 1985 following a trouncing of Clare.

After some time out of the limelight Quaid won a third National League medal in 1992 following a one-point victory over Tipperary.  Limerick later qualified for the Munster final, however, Cork were the victors on that occasion. In spite of ending up on the losing side Quaid's championship performance earned him his first, and only, All-Star award.

Following the completion of the 1993 Munster championship Quaid decided to retire after 18 consecutive championship seasons as goalkeeper.  He was replaced on the Limerick team by his cousin, Joe Quaid.

Interprovincial

Quaid was also a regular on the Munster inter-provincial hurling team between 1979 and 1992.  In 1981 he collected his first Railway Cup medal following a ten-point defeat of arch-rivals Leinster.  A second defeat of Leinster in 1984 gave him a second Railway Cup title while Connacht were accounted for in 1985.  Quaid won a fourth and final Railway Cup winners' medal in 1992.

Poc Fada

Quaid also won numerous awards as an individual and in pairs competitions in the All-Ireland Poc Fada Championship.  In 1983 Quaid and Joe Shortt from Armagh won the pairs competition with 154 pucks.  Three years later in 1986 he collected another pairs title, this time with John Kelly of Offaly as his partner.  Quaid and Des Donnelly of Antrim won the title in 1990, while together with Michael Sahughnessy of Galway he retained the pairs competition title in 1991.  That same year Quaid also won the All-Ireland title in the singles competition.

Managerial career

In retirement from playing at inter-county level, Quaid became involved in the management side of hurling.  In 1998 he guided the Limerick intermediate hurlers to a Munster title in that grade following a 2–11 to 0–15 defeat of Tipperary. Quaid's side later qualified for the All-Ireland final, with Kilkenny providing the opposition.  Unfortunately, that game took place in the same week that Quaid suffered his fatal accident at work. He died on the same day that game was taking place, however, his emotion-filled Limerick team went on to win the game by 4–16 to 2–17. A poem was written by Garry McMahon in the wake of his death called Lament for Tommy Quaid.

Tommy Quaid Perpetual Cup

On 1 May 2008, the Iverahain Golf Society launched the inaugural Tommy Quaid Perpetual Cup in 'The Hurlers', Castletroy, County Limerick. Membership of the society is confined to men who have worn the hurling Number 1 jersey at senior inter-county level for one of the six Munster counties.  The Tommy Quaid Perpetual Cup is awarded to the winner of this annual competition and the outing will alternate between the six Munster counties over the coming years. Present and former hurling goalkeepers from the entire province have jumped at the opportunity of participating in this novel outing. The event was launched by former Clare goalkeeper Davy Fitzgerald. Also in attendance was Brian Murray (Limerick goalkeeper) and Donal Óg Cusack (Cork goalkeeper).

EAP Warning: This post is based on ReSharper 6.1 Early Access Program and some things such as screenshots and minor details might vary from the time this has been written to the time of release.
In a previous post on ReSharper 6.1 Settings, we introduced the concept of layers and covered a few scenarios when it comes to sharing of settings across solutions. In this post we're going to cover a few more, namely: syncing settings over DropBox and providing a global setting for all projects across a company.
As developers we often end up working on multiple machines, whether it is that we own a desktop and laptop, or two desktops, one at work and one at home, or any other combination of scenarios, we have the need to alternate between machines. With the new layers settings in ReSharper 6.1, sharing the same settings in these cases has now become quite easy.
The idea is simple: add a new Global Layer and host the file in a DropBox folder (I'm using DropBox, but obviously you can use any other mechanism that syncs files remotely). In order to do this, we first need to export the current settings to that new file and then mount it.
3. Select Add Layer | Existing File and select the file created in the previous step.
We now have to repeat step 3 for each of our machines. Once we do that, the settings will automatically be loaded every time DropBox syncs.
It should be pretty apparent that providing company-wide settings across all projects is pretty much the same as sharing via DropBox. We just need to provide a file. If we want to provide solution company-wide settings, we'd add the layer to the solution group. This would allow an alternative way of sharing settings which wouldn't require the file to be checked in to source control.
Settings can be imported, exported, activated and deactivated (marking the checkbox or unchecking) at any point. We can also Copy To button to copy settings from one layer to another layer, making it also easy for sharing. In essence you can do pretty much anything you like now.
You might be thinking, if I could setup my settings to read from a specific file, why would I want more layers or the ability to order them in priority?. The idea with layers is that each one can add one or more configuration settings. This means that for instance a company could have a layer where only code formatting settings are defined, another layer where templates are defined and so on and so forth. When we export settings to a file as shown in two, we define which settings we want exported. We do not have to select them all like we did previously. We could for instance only choose to export Templates, and mount a layer where only these are defined. ReSharper can understand that there are different options in different layers and provides us access to them all. We don't have to worry about this. The only thing we might need to take into account is if one layer overrides another one's settings. That's where the Move Up / Move Down comes in, allowing us to specify the priority.
The layers provide a lot of flexibility when it comes to sharing settings, either between two machines, a team or company-wide. Use them, abuse them. Give us your feedback.
This entry was posted in How-To's and tagged ReSharper, ReSharper 6, settings. Bookmark the permalink.
We do the same but using a common SVN repository that all update daily, so the settings are shared and with change logs.
We're looking into that issue, thanks!
Is very cool to participate reporting issues and suggestions and be hear like in jetbrains.
Resharper 6.1 rocks. Keep in the good work guys !!
I really want to use 6.1 again.
Hoping so. It's marked as show-stopper.
@Justin RSRP-280076 has been fixed. Try it now. Proper fix will be delivered in 7.0 I think.
OK great, I'll try the next nightly build.
It's great to see the company-wide settings.
I'm still wondering if something between Solution-level and company-wide can be achieved. We have settings that apply at the enlistment root, across many solutions. But if someone is working on another enlistment in a different project these should not apply. It would be great if having a "x.DotSettings" in the folder hierarchy above the solution automatically creates a layer that is above the solution (just like StyleCop goes up the hierarchy to inherit settings). This avoids having to manually add/remove the "company-wide" settings each time you work on one enlistment vs another.
Is this possible given what you have so far in 6.1, or would that be a seperate feature?
That should be possible. When you create a solution level setting, it will take effect over the global one.
Can we safely delete "*.6.1.ReSharper" and "*.6.1.ReSharper.user" files? At least the latter one seems to be still updated if it exists — but both files don't get created on new solutions.
Andy: You first have to click on an existing (locked) entry in order to specify the group to which the layer should be added.
Just realized – it is a bad idea to copy search and replace patterns between layers. They highlighting the issues multiple times. And from context menu it is not possible to know where it is placed or which one you currently editing.
If I want to apply settings to both, I'd like be able to place a *.DotSettings file in either /Root or even the directory above it, and have it apply to both solutions. Is this possible? Can it be hooked automatically like StyleCop detects it (without requiring each developer to manually hook in a layer for each Workspace)? Thanks!
Btw, why there is no "Fixes" links in last EAP builds 24, 25? Nothing fixed?
in 6.1 that won't be supported but it's something we're discussing and looking in to.
Any chance you can work with them to get this feature into 6.1?
Does the ReSharper automatically check out the settings file(s) from the source control, or should it do the developer itself?
+1 for Tim's request. That is exactly what we need as well. Dozens of solutions, all of which need to share settings with other solutions in the same "enlistment" at a common root folder. The StyleCop feature that does this is great since your able to check the settings file into version control and it just walks up the tree until it finds it. With developers pulling down different branches to arbitrary locations all the time, managing the R# settings by hand is impossible with so many different branches in flight at once. Solution-level settings are of no use, since solution files are generated as needed (and since any VS feature that is solution-specific is just a big mess).
This approach still requires each of the developers to go and "Add a Layer" under the Global Settings or Team Shared Settings.
How would I do that without such a manual effort for every new environment/machine/developer that is set up?
For example, sharing solution level settings across the developers is possible, by adding .sln.DotSettings to the source control. How do I achieve this for multiple solutions?
I got the answer to my previous post!
When we add a layer to the "team shared" settings, the layer information is stored in the .DotSettings file as well, with a relative path.
1. Create a global .DotSettings file that sits in a common folder in source control.
From now on, do any options modifications only in the global layer under the team-shared settings.
Other developers need to get the latest version of the global settings file, if they want to see the latest changes.
This requires just a one-time setup whenever a new solution is created.
We can live with this solution, till a much simpler solution as mentioned by @Tim, @Brian is implemented.
@orangy: You mentioned that it is possible to add layers programmatically with a plugin. Could you point at some documentation to help us get started? Or maybe explain what parts of the plugin api we should be looking at?
There's no step-by-step as such but it is something we're working on. To get you up and running you'd need to download the SDK first. There are templates and samples for working with ReSharper API and if you have any questions, ask away on our SDK forum.
I need to apply a common setting to all developers over all projects in our organization.
From what I've gathered here, I am supposed to achieve this by adding a new layer under the "Global Settings Group". I could not find this group, but i assume this has just been changed to now being named "This computer" in the 6.1.1 EAP..?
Still, there seems to be an error in how settings files are prioritized (or applied) as even though i create a layer under Global (or "This computer") it will be applied _before_ the global, local settings-file found under: %AppData%JetBrainsReSharpervAnyGlobalSettingsStorage.DotSettings.
This effectively results in that no matter what the company-wide settings file states, any settings present on the developers system will still by applied _over_ the company-wide settings I am trying to "enforce", if they, at any point, have saved their settings by pressing "Save".
Shouldn't the local users settings be applied _before_ the layer i added so that the company wide settings take effect? Alternatively one could have a default layer already present under "This computer" representing the users default settings, so that another global layer settings file can be added and placed in order of application.
How do you suggest solving this?
Sorry for the delay. Somehow missed this. As I mentioned earlier, we do not enforce people overriding policies. As such if someone does override a certain setting they shouldn't it will take preference. But this also has a positive side which is, things that are not company policy can be adjusted to each developer's needs.
The issue of the saving modifying something the user is not aware of is somewhat of a problem and we're hoping to address that in the next versions.
the resharper settings manager for 5.1. was all about enforcing settings. This was excatly what we needed. Now with the new 6.1. every developer can override anything he wants. That is not sharing settings, it can just result in pure chaos.
I simply can not see why this very often asked for feature is not implemented.
The logic is so simple: take this settings file in this path where all settings available are saved (not just changed ones) and voila.
I do not see a Resharper Global Settings Group. Is it the This Computer group instead?
Is it possible to add a layers in Mange Option using Resharper SDk through C# macro or add ins ?
Yes it is. Shoot me an email (hadi at jetbrains) and I'll guide you on the classes you need to work with.
I have sent u a mail on this at hadi@jetbrains.com.
I have to agree with Michael Fagré, I think the prioritisation is the wrong way around, and that you should apply the personal developers rules first and then the global rules afterwards, so that any rules which are not specified in the global rules inherit from the personal developers ruleset.
Otherwise we'll need be able to enforce company wide settings as this blog suggests we can, it's simply not the case at present.
To extend, developers who only want their personal rules can simply not have a global layer, and if they are within a company that enforce settings then they shouldn't be able to override them in the first place, that seems like madness.
Sorry I might be misunderstanding. What you're describing is how it works and the opposite of what Michael is asking for. But the second comment indicates that you do want them enforced?
