Marking the culmination of a decade of work by San Diego's Chinese American community, the Chinese Mission building, originally constructed in 1927, was officially dedicated on January 13, 1996, as a Chinese American museum and cultural center. Having been saved from its proposed demolition to make way for a high-rise luxury residential complex, the relocated Mission building would preserve a Chinese American physical and cultural presence in the core of the city's historic downtown area.
Historian Arthur McEvoy suggests that the small number of Chinese in San Diego and the lack of direct economic competition with whites muted somewhat the anti-Chinese activity in the city during the 1870s and 1880s, as compared to other parts of the West, where Chinese were beaten, driven out of towns, and killed.7 The early history of San Diego's Chinese and Japanese in fishing and agriculture indicates that Asians fared well when they entered occupations not yet claimed by whites; however, when whites began desiring such jobs, limitations or exclusion followed.
In the early 1970s, however, although these projects were proposed with the intention of generating economic development downtown, what remained unclear was the exact form that such development would take and which areas would be included. Los Angeles, for example, abandoned its historic core and shifted new development to the west while other cities, such as San Francisco, worked to incorporate new high-rises within its historic fabric.28 When it first opened, Horton Plaza was focused inward and sealed itself off from the immediate neighborhood. Shoppers could enter its massive parking lot, shop and eat, without setting foot outside the complex.
Property owners, such as Tom Hom, concerned with historic preservation and economic development in San Diego's aging downtown, formed the Gaslamp Quarter Association in the mid-1970s. Hom, as a former City Council member, possessed substantial knowledge of economic redevelopment policies and city politics. Hom served as the Gaslamp Quarter Association president for four years and assisted the effort to establish the Gaslamp Quarter Redevelopment Project, adopted by the city in 1982.29 The opening of Horton Plaza, and its commercial success, marked the turnaround of the downtown area as new hotels, apartment buildings, condominiums, and office buildings were constructed. New businesses transformed the Gaslamp Quarter as restaurants, bars, art galleries, and other usages moved into the historic buildings. Although many buildings were renovated, others were threatened with destruction as developers sought to maximize their profits.
Brandes found few buildings worth saving and gave little support to the idea of a Chinese or Asian Historic District. He wrote that the results "make for a disappointing picture. . . . In general, time has taken its toll. Too few buildings remained after the city 'cleanup of 1912′ and the effect of the destruction of residences and living quarters since that time has also taken away the few grocery stores or merchandise buildings which were Chinese-Japanese."34 In a letter to CCDC containing his ratings, Brandes wrote that the Chinese Consolidated Benevolent Association, Ying-On, Quin, and Quong buildings received high to medium scores (50, 48, 33, and 28 respectively), suggesting that preservation would be worth considering.
In conclusion, the Chinese American effort to save the Mission and create a historic district, reestablished their physical, cultural, and economic presence downtown. They succeeded for a number of reasons. Their plans coincided with CCDC's effort to revitalize downtown and turn it into a commercial and entertainment center. As the APTHD Master Plan recognized, San Diego was the only major city in the "western United States that [did] not have a thriving Historic Asian District."89 In other words, in contemporary San Diego, a "Chinatown" was appreciated as a positive element that would contribute to the ambience of the area, unlike the period of the Panama-California Exposition when "Chinatown" was synonymous with "slum." In addition, the team of Dorothy and Tom Hom provided knowledge of the political and redevelopment process so that the Chinese American community could effectively mobilize and utilize their considerable financial and organizational resources.

Quick Shots: NBA free agency most exciting, but not better than other sports
Matt Trowbridge Staff writer @matttrowbridge
The NBA got better the last two weeks when the best free agents picked the Clippers and Nets instead of the Lakers and Knicks, showing well-run teams can compete with the glamour teams. Houston trading for Russell Westbrook also shows fans teams are willing to go all-in, while Oklahoma City adding eight first-round draft picks gives hope for major rebuilding efforts. But that doesn't make NBA free agency better than the NFL's and MLB's tamer versions. Just different. It's fun to see stars move all around the league, but it's also comforting that other sports aren't perpetually worried about losing their biggest stars.
Trubisky not 'polarizing'
Not sure how Mitch Trubisky gets considered a "polarizing quarterback." Or Jay Cutler either. Rex Grossman was polarizing. Cutler was almost unanimously (and maybe unfairly) disliked for much of his Chicago stay. Trubisky is quite popular. The only debate is between those who think he is going to be very good and those who want to wait-and-see if he is going to be better than average, which is his floor.
GOAT battle heats up
Roger Federer (20), Rafael Nadal (18) and Novak Djokovic (15) not only have the most Grand Slam singles titles of all time, they also rank 1-2-3 in most Grand Slam finals reached (Federer 30, Nadal 26 and Djokovic 24), most semifinals (Federer 45, Djokovic 36 and Nadal 32) and 1-2-4 in most quarterfinals attained (Federer 55, Djokovic 45, Jimmy Connors 41 and Nadal 39). The fact that each had to contend with two of the other three greatest players ever makes their achievements even more stunning. And they each seem far from done. The Big 3 have combined to win the last 10 Grand Slam titles (make that 11 in a row after either Djokovic or Federer wins Wimbledon on Sunday) and all three have reached the semifinals in the same Grand Slam event a record 15 times.
Serena stalled at 23
While Roger Federer, 38, looks ageless trying to hold off his greatest of all-time challengers, Serena Williams continues to just miss ending all debate on the women's side. Williams, 37, is probably already the women's GOAT, but has reached three Grand Slam finals since returning from having a baby last year and hasn't won a single set in those finals. Margaret Court (24), Williams (23) and Stefi Graff (22) have the most female Grand Slam titles.

— The line from Sherlock that will kill us all, probably.
Thanks for the preview Andrea as we in the U.S. don't usually get these right away, if at all. You know you suggested in "Sherlock Kills the Numbers" that your post on "Sherlock" are what grab your readers attention. I believe it is because your intuitive nature about the characters, their feelings, what they may be saying without actually saying it, and their love for one another are just so damn correct. That and the superb writing you produce keep people coming back to read your post, and if I'm wrong, and I don't believe I am, than perhaps some of your many other readers may wish to offer a better explanation. Oh and for the record, I thought your review on "A Scandal in Belgravia" was superb, and that's not to say your post on "The Reichenbach Fall" was inferior, in fact far from it. I suppose it is a matter of personal taste, but I love your writing and your insights, and each showcase tremendous sensitivity to the subject matter, particularly John and Sherlock. In addition I am now getting ready to devour your post on "Dr Who" episodes, likely they will prove to be equally intoxicating and addictive reading as well. Love looking in here to see what you are writing about next, because no matter the topic the read is genuinely entertaining.
I suggest if you want to learn about things fast, you should sign up for an account on the website tumblr. Than just go on the Sherlock tag or follow a bunch of Sherlock fans so you will get all the newest updates.


Well, it's official…the business, the trade accounts, the website, a wonderful stream of clients and now the blog!
A mantra we've all heard is, "believe in who you are and do what you love." SO, here I am…officially "live" in today's World of social media and ready to take on your design challenges!
Peruse my amazing new website, designed by the lovely Erin Flett , and please feel free to send me your interior design/decorating & real estate staging questions. I'll try to answer all of them quickly and consider using them as the focus of an upcoming blog.

Specialist Maths Schools
Mr Ranil Jayawardena (North East Hampshire) (Con)
10. What recent assessment his Department has made of children's progress in specialist maths schools. [912318]
In 2019 King's College London mathematics school reports that 100% of its students achieved a grade A or A* in A-level maths and 90% achieved an A* in A-level maths. The school also reports that more than 25% of its students in 2019 have secured Oxbridge places. This school and Exeter mathematics school are spectacular examples of the success of this Government's free school programme, a programme that the Labour party wants to abolish.
Mr Jayawardena
I thank my right hon. Friend for that reply and commend the Government on what they are doing to level up funding, which I understand will mean another £2.9 million per year for schools in North East Hampshire, but will he expand that excellent specialist maths schools programme so that we can do even more for every child across this country?
Given the success of the two maths schools so far, we are committed to opening more maths schools as we continue to drive up academic standards and social mobility. There are four more in the pipeline, including the Surrey mathematics school, which should benefit young people in North East Hampshire. My hon. Friend will also be pleased to know that, due to the large increase in school funding announced last week, 100% of secondary schools in his constituency will benefit from the new minimum of at least £5,000 per pupil.


Conducting a competitive analysis is probably one of the most important reports you should spend time doing for your business. The main reason is that clients now have quick access to your competitors' perceived or actual product/service benefits. The second reason is you maybe promoting one feature on a product or on a soft skill like customer service as your company's brand differentiation. in the age of digital marketing, this isn't enough to keep your customers loyalty.
The consumer has changed, we've changed, we want choice. We want to know why we should buy from you and continue to buy from your company. Even a new advertising program or social media campaign can change your customers' mind to buy from your competition. A simple share can change everything!
On the upside of things, as someone in marketing, it has gotten easier to read the competition thanks to the Internet. Granted, you may not know about an upcoming advertising campaign from your competition, but what competitor tracking will do is to help you understand the current industry environment.
But you'll need to know what you are looking at to be able to build a marketing plan and it starts by creating a competitive analysis spreadsheet.
What you are looking for is the ability to understand what next, what will be your competitor's next move. This skill set takes time to develop, so don't give up just yet.
The next area to track is how you compare against your direct competitors based on actual product features as well as clients' perceptions of your product and your competition. It is these gaps and opportunities across a range of factors that you are looking for to either help define your brand message or educate your target audience should their perception be incorrect or skewed.
Below are the major factors you should be tracking either weekly, monthly or daily depending on your industry. These factors include financial stability, type of clients, marketing investment, staffing, product and service offering and brand positioning and messaging.
At the start, create an excel template listing the top 5 to 10 factors, benefits and features your customers believe to be important and are factors for your company's success.
You'll need to set at least 10 hours a week to stay on top of your competitive reporting; it comes with a lot of reading competitor's annual reports, press releases, product brochures, patent applications and much, much more!
Also, you'll need to travel to trade shows, check out how the competition presents their brand, attend all seminars and speak with the trade show organizers – the good ones will have a vibe on the industry's outlook based on exhibitors and attendees comments, attendance and promotional programs.
I like doing a competitive analysis. It allows me to understand clearly my company's position in the industry, as well as my company's strengths and weakness. During a competitive analysis, you need to remove any bias. You need to think analytical because you won't be doing your company any favours by listing brand strengths that are still not developed. Also, brand strengths need to be relevant since you'll be using these strengths to create a truly unique brand message that is relevant to your target market.
Yes! It will help you formulate the marketing strategy, discover opportunities in new markets or product development and create a unique brand message that will help you stand apart from your competitors.
My biggest frustration is when I read posts that insist that you can know your competitor's marketing strategy by reading a press release. By the time you've read the press release, it's too late. You are in reactive move.
Write up a monthly report, it will help to see changes before it comes to a full blown problem.
The second area is sales forecasting. There are two types of sales forecasting, a) when you've just launched a business and need to know your cash flow and b) when you've been in business for a few years and need to know how much sales you need to stay profitable.
Or, it will help you determine whether you should enter their landscape, or not and go somewhere else.
NOTE: As much I appreciate the importance of a monthly competitive analysis report, I also know that big client wins, overnight a competitor enters your niche market, and new product introduction can and does arrive as a big surprise and changes the market space. It happens, no matter how much competitive tracking you are doing. It what makes business so exciting.

The crystal of this 1919 detector owned by Stu Cohen, N1SC, is seated in a disc of alloy called Wood's metal. According to the 1913 edition of Webster's Dictionary, Wood's metal is a fusible alloy consisting of one or two parts of cadmium, two parts of tin, four of lead, and seven or eight part of bismuth. It melts from 66 to 71°C. [Brennan Price, N4QX, Photo]
Keast's second transmitter, constructed in 1919, uses a 1 kW Thordarsen transformer with 25,000 volts from the secondary winding. The transmitter used two Leyden jars for capacitors and a synchronous motor with two rotating spark gaps that put out a signal in the vicinity of 1360 kHz. [Kenneth Smith, KR6MM, Photo]

In 1927, Keast purchased a kit and constructed this AM radio. The kit consisted of all the components needed to make a complete radio, including the earphones, which are still with the set. One of the tuning dials has listed the stations he could pick up with the radio. With a hardwood cabinet, it used eight tubes and was refurbished by Rudi Mangold, HB9BU. [Kenneth Smith, KR6MM, Photo]

Club History
The First Radio Station in the Gold Country
by Kenneth A. Smith, KR6MM
As a teenager after World War I, Phillip Keast, originally licensed as 6DD, built a spark gap transmitter that a century later provides inspiration to today's hams.
Phil Keast was the young son of a miner, living in Grass Valley, California, in the early 1910s. When he was 10 years old, Phil's family was in Oakland, California to visit relatives and the family across the street from his relations had a crystal receiving set. There, Phil could hear NPJ, the US Navy station on Yerba Buena (Goat) Island, communicate with the ships coming into San Francisco. All communication was done in Morse code with spark transmitters. From that beginning, radio became a fascinating hobby for Phil.
In 1914, Phil made a small crystal detector set of his own using a "cat's whisker" on a piece of galena set in molded Wood's metal. He put up an antenna in the trees near the North Star Mine where his father worked and listened. Before Phil left the North Star Mine site, he began experimenting with a small radio transmitter, trying out a Ford automobile coil with a stationary spark gap. It's not known how many contacts he made with that first transmitter, but it was the first radio station in the Gold Country.
After the United States entered World War I early in 1917, all civilian radio operating--both transmitting and receiving--was forbidden. In November 1919, a year after the war ended, Phil applied for a license from the Department of Commerce and received the call sign 6DD. His license application was signed by Guglielmo Marconi, the inventor of the radio telegraph system. His call is visible on the spark gap transmitter he made after the war using a 1 kW Thordarsen transformer with 25,000 volts from the secondary winding. The transmitter used two Leyden jars for capacitors and a synchronous motor with two rotating spark gaps. It had kickback prevention coils--now called RF chokes--to prevent backflow of the generated high frequency waves to the transformer.
Phil's spark gap radio was lost after he passed away in 1990. It was found eight years later at the North Star Mine Museum, mixed up with some discarded electronic material. It was initially thought to be a discarded X-ray machine, but it was noted by the curator of the museum that the strange apparatus had the odd marking "6DD." Rudi Mangold, HB9BU, of the Nevada County Amateur Radio Club, restored the transmitter to operating condition before he, himself, passed away in 2001. The transmitter's Leyden jars could not be found, so Rudi built two new jars using high density polypropylene coils covered by aluminum foil.
The transmitter has a resonating circuit with a wavelength of 220 meters, or 1360 kHz. It is equipped with a 40 W light bulb dummy load antenna and is keyed by a relay, since the power required by the transformer would burn up a straight key.
I believe that Phil's spark gap transmitter is one of six in existence and one of four that is in operating condition. It is on permanent display in the lobby of the Nevada County Rood Building. Phil passed away in 1990 and his family graciously gave NCARC permission to apply for a new club station call: W6DD.
Kenneth A. Smith, KR6MM, has been a ham since 1992, earning his first ticket at the age of 75. He joined in the US Army Air Force in 1940 and saw active duty as a navigator--and later as commander of an engineering construction squadron--in World War II, the Korean Conflict and in Viet Nam before retiring from the US Air Force in 1970 with the rank of colonel. He upgraded to Amateur Extra in 2001.

In recent weeks I've been evaluating a stunning organic patchouli oil from Indonesia, assessing it for inclusion in a perfume I am planning to create. I am impressed with its earthy dampness and cool, crisp "white musk" vibe. When I smell this, I feel somehow transported back in time to my childhood... back to days where there were Very Hungry Caterpillars; where Owls and Pussycats sailed to distant shores in pea-green boats, and wild rumpuses began where the Wild Things were. I feel it only natural though, that this profoundly organic scent triggered my sense of recall and flung me back into the 70's... the use of patchouli was rife in perfumery at the time, and typified the entire era.
Hot on the tails of this evaluation, I hoped to find some new interpretations of patchouli used in perfumery, and so the opportunity arose - via a very kind friend - to sample a scent launched by French jewellery/perfume house Reminiscence. When doors opened to their Antibes store on the Côte d'Azur in 1970, founders Zoe Coste and Nino Amaddeo launched a trio of perfumes to complement their jewellery line - one of which was the aptly named Patchouli. Success followed, and the scent went on to become a triumph and the brand's flagship perfume.
This eau de toilette is still in production to this day, and in 2000 the men's version Patchouli Pour Homme was added to their portfolio. However it was the enchanting gold flacon of the Inoubliable Patchouli Elixir EDP - a 2007 reinterpretation of the original scent for women - that attracted me to this line. I am now in possession of generous samples of all three scents, and have enjoyed wearing each of them.
The ladies Patchouli EDT is a dark chocolate-coloured liquid - one that I might mention is likely to stain if applied carelessly to clothes - and the opening accords tend to follow suit... an initial burst of syrupy chocolate features and then fades as crisp woods emerge. There is distinct sandalwood and cedar here until the dark patchouli pushes through and dominates. It brings with it not only a thick, earthy quality that is to be somewhat expected; but also a transparent sense of "coolness". Rich amber ribbons of labdanum flutter through the scent as if caught on the wind, and a creamy tonka/vanilla streak sweetens the mix. But this is the scent of a damp dark forest - one that might feature in a Brothers Grimm fairytale. For an eau de toilette, Patchouli delivers many hours of rich, enjoyable persistence.
The bewitching gold flacon of Patchouli Elixir EDP is indeed a thing to be desired; so too are it's contents, sold the promise of a richer woody-oriental take on the original women's release. But to my nose, the contrast between the two is minimal. Elixir, whilst a paler amber-coloured juice, opens with pretty much the same accords - perhaps a little lighter on the chocolate though. Here, amongst the expected woods, resins and signature patchouli, one might occasionally glimpse a flash of dark vetiver green, but the similarities between the two may be too close to call. Perhaps a distinction can be made in the way Elixir appears to lack the same sweetness of its predecessor; at least in part, anyway. To my nose, the dry-downs are identical, and the longevity/sillage pretty much on par with one another. Despite the beguiling packaging solution, to be frank, I can't really imagine the reason for Elixir's release. Both scents are wonderful, but not individual enough to warrant owning both.
Patchouli Pour Homme, however is a whole other story. With a sharp citrus opening of mandarin and lime that have been imbued with French lavender, the top notes are similar in style to many men's colognes of yesteryear. Alongside the other two releases, initially this scent almost seems a little displaced. However 10 minutes in, the patchouli is more distinguishable and one can draw light parallels amongst the three. The approach to Patchouli Pour Homme appears to have been to garner mass appeal... the woody accords of Virginia cedar recede and sparkling geranium moves forward. Here, the patchouli almost seems to take a subordinate role behind all the other accords. There is nothing dark or brooding about this scent - it is a fresh woody fragrance that I'm not actually convinced hits the mark. What I do enjoy, however, is the nice resinous turn upon the dry-down in which benzoin, labdanum and shimmering white musks bring a dying puff of opulence - though perhaps a day late and a nickel shy.
Whilst I may bemoan missing out on the wonderful Elixir flacon (for weeks, possibly), I would personally invest in the women's EDT version and enjoy the savings it has to offer - it is dirty and manly enough to pull off by the gents, and opulent and gourmand enough to please the ladies. Though none of them quite capture the essence of true organic patchouli oil, I feel on the whole they have much to offer the patch enthusiast.
Thanks for the reviews . I can hear the bells on my skirt hems! I still use pure oil on ankles as it reminds me of an asian friend at school who'd bring in fabrics for sewing class that wafted patchouli around and I fell in love with it.
Ankles, you say? I've never considered this... do you find it effective?
Hi D, I have the ORIGINAL 1970s-1980s Patchouli, it is soooo heavy and long lasting. I may have to send you a decant.

Q: 500 error when trying to push to GitLab with Active Directory authentication We currently use SubVersion but are looking to migrate to a Git-based solution in order to be able to carry out pre-commit code reviews.
The requirements are that the central Git repository is hosted on-premises, has a visual front-end to allow management of projects, and uses Active Directory authentication.
As a trial, I have installed GitLab EE on a virtual machine running Ubuntu server 18.04.
I have set up AD authentication using the following config:
gitlab_rails['ldap_enabled'] = true
gitlab_rails['ldap_servers'] = YAML.load <<-'EOS'
 main:
  label: 'MyOrganisation'
  host: '172.16.0.6'
  port: 389
  uid: 'sAMAccountName'
  bind_dn: 'CN=ldapbinduser,CN=Users,DC=myorganisation,DC=com'
  password: 'password'
  timeout: 30
  active_directory: true
  allow_username_or_mail_login: false
  lowercase_usernames: true
  block_auto_created_users: true
  base: 'OU=Software,OU=Engineering,DC=myorganisation,DC=com'
  group_base: 'OU=Software,OU=Engineering,DC=myorganisation,DC=com'
  admin_group: 'internal software dept'
EOS

This has been partially successful. A MyOrganisation tab appears in the GitLab logon page and members of the Software group are able to log on using their AD logon and password while non-members are not. Members of the "Internal Software Dept" group are not automatically assigned admin rights, but that's fine because we can add them manually.
The problem comes when trying to push the history of an SVN repo into GitLab, or clone a repository. I have created an Internal Software group in GitLab and added a TestProject project to it with a readme.txt file. On my Windows 10 PC I have installed the Git Credential Manager for Windows. When I attempt to clone this to my PC using:
    git clone http://gitlab/internal-software/testproject.git
I receive a message of :

NBA MVP LeBron James is trying to raise money for families affected by the December massacre at the Sandy Hook Elementary School by auctioning off sneakers he wore the day after the shooting.
The sneakers he wore in Miami's game against Washington on Dec. 15 -- one day after the tragedy in Newtown, Conn., where 20 first-graders and six educators were killed -- are available in an online auction that runs through Saturday.
Proceeds will benefit the Newtown Memorial Fund, through the LeBron James Family Foundation.
James' signature is on one of the shoes, and an inscription of "vs. Wizards 12/15/12 Never forget!!" is on the other. The auction is expected to generate at least $5,000.

Home Article A BETTER DEMOCRACY.
A BETTER DEMOCRACY.
by Ezra Klein
Via Matthew Yglesias, Richard Hasen has a sensible proposal for reforming our voter registration system and cutting down on fraud:
The solution is to take the job of voter registration for federal elections out of the hands of third parties (and out of the hands of the counties and states) and give it to the federal government. The Constitution grants Congress wide authority over congressional elections. The next president should propose legislation to have the Census Bureau, when it conducts the 2010 census, also register all eligible voters who wish to be registered for future federal elections. High-school seniors could be signed up as well so that they would be registered to vote on their 18th birthday. When people submit change-of-address cards to the post office, election officials would also change their registration information.This change would eliminate most voter registration fraud. Government employees would not have an incentive to pad registration lists with additional people in order to keep their jobs. The system would also eliminate the need for matches between state databases, a problem that has proved so troublesome because of the bad quality of the data. The federal government could assign each person a unique voter-identification number, which would remain the same regardless of where the voter moves. The unique ID would prevent people from voting in two jurisdictions, such as snowbirds who might be tempted to vote in Florida and New York. States would not have to use the system for their state and local elections, but most would choose to do so because of the cost savings.There's something in this for both Democrats and Republicans. Democrats talk about wanting to expand the franchise, and there's no better way to do it than the way most mature democracies do it: by having the government register voters. For Republicans serious about ballot integrity, this should be a winner as well.
Unfortunately, I haven't seen any evidence that Republicans are concerned about voter registration fraud, as opposed to concerned about efforts to register marginalized communities that are likely to vote Democratic. You can think of a thousand ways to decrease voter registration fraud (which just about never happens anyway), but most of them rely on expanding the franchise so you don't have paid organizers with partisan incentives doing the grunt work of democracy. Those are good policy proposals if you want more people from low income and minority communities voting, but bad proposals if you don't, and Republicans, as far as we can tell, don't. Adam Serwer makes this argument well in his deeply reported piece on ACORN. All the evidence suggests that the actual threats to the "fabric of our democracy" come from disenfranchisement: Voter purges using programs with crude name-matching algorithms, insufficient voter machines in heavily populated urban centers, partisan challenges of individual voters when they attempt to vote. The literature leaves no doubt that huge numbers of legitimate voters lose the ability to weigh in on election day. By contrast, there's no empirical support for the idea that voter registration fraud is a significant factor in elections ("The only way Mickey Mouse could vote is if he shows up with a federally approved form of ID. And if they wanted to affect the election, they'd have to have multiple addresses and do it an incredible amount of times."). But by making noise about the rare instances of fraud rather than the constant instances of disenfranchisement, Republicans are able to frame the conversation around further restricting the ability to vote. The idea of expanding the franchise -- making it easier to vote and harder to be wrongfully purged -- is far from the conversation. And that's the point.

Jon Cryer did not lose his virginity to Demi Moore during their no small affair
September 25th, 2019 under Demi Moore, Jon Cryer. [ Comments: none ]
Back when Jon Cryer and Demi Moore filmed the 1984 movie No Small Affair, they actually had an affair. The actress talked about it in her book, and she always felt that it was no small affair for her co-star.
According to Page Six, she says that she took his virginity and "It pains me to think of how callous I was with his feelings — that I stole what could have been such an important and beautiful moment from him."
The actor wanted to clear things up, so he took to social media to explain his side of the story. He wrote, "Well, the good thing about this is she doesn't have to feel bad about it anymore, because while I'm sure she was totally justified making that assumption based on my my skill level (and the stunned look on my face at the time), I had actually lost my virginity in high school." Then he added, "But she's right the other part, I was over the moon for her during a very troubled time in her life. I have nothing but affection for her and not a regret in the world."
What is there for him regret? Well, maybe that awkward conversation he must have had with Ashton Kutcher, who was married to Moore at the time, when the two of them worked together on Two and a Half Men. Does Cryer go, "Hi, I am Jon and I f*cked your wife when you were a toddler? You were learning how to hold your peepee and I was learning what its really used for"?
Jon Cryer goes to Space with Celebrity Adventure Club!
July 1st, 2016 under Jon Cryer, NASA, Travel Channel. [ Comments: none ]
When Jon Cryer was a teenager, he went to the Bronx High School of Science. Therefore, you can assume that he loves Space, and you would be right. The 51 year old is going to live his boyhood dream tonight at 11p on Travel Channel's Celebrity Travel Club.
He will travel the Country and the World to visit different Space Centers and talk to several Astronauts. His first stop is NASA headquarters in DC where he will talk to the Head Astronaut.
From there his will travel to Houston where he will stay in the Houston We Have a Problem Room at a hotel. It is so out of this world awesome, I want to book a stay there. Once he gets a good night's sleep, it is time for him to visit the Johnson Space Center. He will get a tour of the facility including an actual size model of the International Space Station, put on a real Spacesuit, sit in a capsule that transports Astronauts to the ISS and get a work out like they do up there. The coolest part is watching the grueling task of him putting on the Spacesuit which includes him putting on his own diaper.
Now it is time for his next stop, he travels to Star City, Russia to visit the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center. There he will go through Cosmonaut training. Before you can enter the centrifuge, you need to get a physical exam. Once he enters the centrifuge, you will see why. I got dizzy just watching him. The way he describes it, makes it seem worse than what we saw. After going around and around, you wouldn't think he would want to eat; but when he gets to experince how they eat on the ISS, he makes room. You might not want to eat after they describe how much they recycle what you eat and drink in Space. After you eat, we all want to feel lighter. Now, it is time for him to get to experience weightlessness in a Spacesuit.
After that, there is nothing left but for him to soak up all he has been through. It is an Adventure that all of us wish we can experience. But since we can't, it is really cool to see it experiences through his eyes. Not only is interesting to watch, it is educational. A lot goes into the training of being an Astronaut and it is so cool to see just a little sample of it on this exciting show.
In the coming weeks, Terry Crews travels to Detroit for the rebirth of Motor City and Eric Stonestreet looks into World War II espionage. I can't wait to go on that Adventure with them starting tonight at 11p with Cryer's.
Jon Cryer shows off his sexy legs!
December 28th, 2015 under Jon Cryer. [ Comments: none ]
Jon Cryer is a big fan of the NY Giants. So much so, he got tons of their apparel for Christmas. Since he loved all of his presents, he modeled them for us. But I didn't notice any of them, all I noticed was his legs and how they look nothing like a Duckies. Seriously sexy, don't you agree?
Jon Cryer recreates his Duckie dance!
April 15th, 2015 under James Corden, Jon Cryer. [ Comments: none ]
Jon Cryer was on The Late Late Show yesterday to promote his memoir So That Happened, and he recreated his infamous dance scene from Pretty in Pink. In fact, he even recreated his Duckie look from his head to his toes. The number was pretty in every color of the spectrum and I enjoyed him.
What I didn't enjoy was James Corden. Why? Why? Why do these late night hosts think they need to be the star of every bit? Why can't they let the star be the star? Why couldn't Corden taken a back seat and be the Molly Ringwald or Annie Potts in it? Why did he have to be Duckie when Duckie is already there? It took away from a great moment and crapped all over it. This isn't the first time that Corden pissed me off, but this is the first time I am letting my voice be heard about it. I find him annoying and unlikable because he tries too hard. He's like that smelly ugly dog that wants you to please please please take him home, but just want him to go away. I know it's Corden show, but that doesn't mean he has to be the star in everything. The true stars on the show are the stars! In fact, the more Corden tries, the harder it is for me to believe he truly was an actor before he was hosting TV shows. He doesn't seem to have any talent. He's like community theater as compared to all these other people on his show. Seriously, I really find it hard to believe he has a Tony on his mantel because he doesn't impress me.
I feel for Stephen Colbert because they are going to be an awful fit together. I hope that they will remain separate entities when Colbert's show debuts in September. You know what, Colbert and Seth Meyers, and Jimmy Fallon and Corden are better paired with each other than how they are currently paired. Don't you agree since Corden is basically the British version of Fallon?
Since I can't offer Corden any Tenderness, I will offer you some. Below is the original dance scene from Pretty In Pink!
Jon Cryer can't act out his own movie!
April 7th, 2015 under Jimmy Fallon, Jon Cryer. [ Comments: none ]
Yesterday on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon and Kat Dennings played a game of charades with Michael Douglas and Jon Cryer and things got interesting when Duckie got his own movie. That's right, the Two and a Half Men star got Pretty in Pink. You'd think it be easy for him to act out his most famous film and you'd be wrong. He tried, but the Wall Street star just couldn't get it. His opponents knew what he was doing, but not his partner. That makes you wonder what was Douglas doing in the '80s or should I say who wasn't he doing when that movie came out?

Q: How to register decorated objects in Dependency Injection frameworks (PicoContainer)? I want to wrap a number of classes implementing the Job interface with a JobEnabledDecorator object that determines whether or not it executes.
I am having trouble figuring out how to configure this in PicoContainer, so that it knows to create the Job implementation objects with a JobEnabledDecorator wrapping them.
Is this possible in Dependency Injection frameworks?
Is it possible in PicoContainer?
If so, any help would be appreciated.

A: You'll probably want to add a "behavior."  The short story is, you need to register a behavior factory which creates behaviors that wrap your component adapters.  It's easier to describe when walking through an example.
First, you want to create a container, something like so.
final MutablePicoContainer container = new PicoBuilder()
    .withBehaviors(new JobEnabledDecorating())
    .build();

This means that, once the basic object is created - in your case the Job - you want to add something extra to it.  There are a number of built-in behaviors, but you want your own: JobEnabledDecorating.
public class JobEnabledDecorating extends AbstractBehaviorFactory {
    @Override
    public ComponentAdapter createComponentAdapter(
        final ComponentMonitor componentMonitor, final LifecycleStrategy lifecycleStrategy,
        final Properties componentProperties, final Object componentKey,
        final Class componentImplementation, final Parameter... parameters) throws PicoCompositionException
    {
        return componentMonitor.newBehavior(
            new JobEnabledDecorated(
                super.createComponentAdapter(
                    componentMonitor, lifecycleStrategy, componentProperties,
                    componentKey, componentImplementation, parameters
                )
            )
        );
    }
}

The factory creates JobEnabledDecorated behaviors by wrapping the component adapter, which in turn provide your instances.  The real work is now done in this behavior.
public class JobEnabledDecorated extends AbstractBehavior<Job> {
    public JobEnabledDecorated(final ComponentAdapter<Job> delegate) {
        super(delegate);
    }

    @Override
    public Job getComponentInstance(final PicoContainer container, final Type into)
            throws PicoCompositionException {
        final Job instance = super.getComponentInstance(container, into);
        return new JobEnabledDecorator(instance);
    }

    @Override
    public String getDescriptor() {
        return "JobEnabledDecorator-";
    }
}

getComponentInstance asks for the job, adds the decorator and returns this wrapped object as the new instance.  You'll have to add your own logic here.
public interface Job {
    void execute();
}

public class JobEnabledDecorator implements Job {
    private Job delegate;

    public JobEnabledDecorator(final Job delegate) {
        this.delegate = delegate;
    }

    @Override
    public void execute() {
        System.out.println("before");
        delegate.execute();
        System.out.println("after");
    }
}

public class MyJob implements Job {
    @Override
    public void execute() {
        System.out.println("execute");
    }
}

Back to our container usage, consider this example.
    final MutablePicoContainer container = new PicoBuilder()
        .withBehaviors(new JobEnabledDecorating())
        .build();

    container.addComponent(Job.class, MyJob.class);

    final Job job = container.getComponent(Job.class);
    job.execute();

Running this will print:
before
execute
after

This is, of course, because the container handed you a JobEnabledDecorator(MyJob) object.

Preparing for the Next Sandy Requires Facing Hard Facts
Oct. 28, 2014 -- Two years after the devastation wrought by Hurricane Sandy, many of New Jersey's coastal communities continue to struggle with recovery and rebuilding efforts.

Really struggled to find plenty of hymns for this Sunday's gospel (the woman bent double, whom Jesus healed on the Sabbath). So I tried to write one. Not sure if it's pants or useful or a bit of both! If you like it, you can have it! It goes to the tune 'Slane' (Be thou my vision / Lord of all hopefulness), which I think most people in most churches probably know.
Previous For what, exactly, are we supposed to be ready?


A picture of the Air Jordan III 3 BHM box tag surfaced a few weeks ago that was on the same packaging box as the Air Jordan Cement III. Shoepreme has confirmed that the Air Jordan III – BHM will be released in the OG style box.

Who is a Yankee and where did the term come from? Join author Jim McNiven as he explores the emergence and influence of Yankee culture while traversing an old transcontinental highway reaching from the Atlantic to the Pacific—US 20, which he nicknames "The Yankee Road." The Yankee Road: Tracing the Journey of the New England Tribe that Created Modern America combines fascinating history with a travel narrative, taking the reader on a journey through the places Yankees and their descendants settled as they expanded westward. Using a physical road to connect locations important to the Yankee cultural "road," McNiven takes us on side trips into individual stories, introducing readers to the origins of such large-scale and diverse ideas as conservation, public education, telegraphy, mass production, religion, and labor reform.
This second volume of a projected trilogy, Domination, centers on the growth of industry around the Great Lakes in the mid-nineteenth century into the twentieth century, something that led to the Yankee victory in the Civil War and the emergence of the reunited country as a major world power. Erastus Corning, Ida Tarbell, John Brown, JD Rockefeller, Henry Flagler, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, the Kellogg brothers, the Wright brothers and Judge Gary, all make appearances.
