Given those utilities, here's how I might write it.  I'd probably put User in a model package, and UserDaoImpl would be a public class in its own .java file.  I'm just being lazy:
package persistence;

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.SQLException;

/**

 * @author Michael
 * @since 10/2/11
 */
public interface UserDao
{
    User find(String username);
}

class UserDaoImpl implements UserDao {

    public static final String SELECT_USER_BY_USERNAME = "select username, account_no,name from accounts where username = ?";

    private Connection connection;

    UserDaoImpl(Connection connection)
    {
        this.connection = connection;
    }

    public User find(String username)
    {
        User user = null;
        PreparedStatement ps = null;
        ResultSet rs = null;

        try
        {
            ps = this.connection.prepareStatement(SELECT_USER_BY_USERNAME);
            ps.setString(1, username);
            rs = ps.executeQuery();
            while (rs.next()) {
                String account = rs.getString("account_no");
                String name = rs.getString("name");
                user = new User(name, username, account);
            }
        }
        catch (SQLException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        finally
        {
            DatabaseUtils.close(rs);
            DatabaseUtils.close(ps);
        }

        return user;
    }
}

class User {
    private final String name;
    private final String username;
    private final String account;

    User(String name, String username, String account)
    {
        this.name = name;
        this.username = username;

    public String getName()
    {

    }

    public String getUsername()
    {
        return username;
    }

    public String getAccount()
    {
        return account;
    }

    @Override
    public String toString()
    {
        final StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
        sb.append("User");
        sb.append("{name='").append(name).append('\'');
        sb.append(", username='").append(username).append('\'');
        sb.append(", account='").append(account).append('\'');
        sb.append('}');
        return sb.toString();
    }
}

A: There is an exception thrown. But that exception will never get anywhere, because of the return in the finally block. Google for "java", "return" and "finally" and you will get a feeling how bad that is.
Fix the code and show us the stacktrace.

Дворец Монфорт () — вилла в неомавританском стиле постройки второй трети XIX века в немецкой общине Лангенарген на берегу Боденского озера. Построенное по образцу дворца Мирамаре в окрестностях Триеста, здание планировалось как увеселительный павильон для вюртембергского короля Вильгельма I.

Название дворца, установившееся при Карле Вюртембергском, восходит к дворянскому роду графов фон Монфорт, которым, как минимум, с XIV века принадлежал этот участок. Вплоть до 1861 года здесь располагался замок Арген — одна из семейных резиденций Монфортов (окончательно оставлен в 1810 году).

В настоящее время дворец используется как ресторан, и место для проведения концертов.

Freshly planted vegetation on the new Hayden Meadows Walmart store's 92,000-square-foot roof is an experiment.
The 40,000-square-foot green roof, billed as the largest in Portland, is divided into three sections to compare different soil depths. The remaining 52,000-square-foot traditional white membrane roof serves as the control.
It's a rare opportunity to back up the rainwater absorption and evaporative cooling benefits of green roofs with data from a real world application, said David Sailor, director of Portland State University's Green Building Research Laboratory. PSU received a $133,000 grant from Walmart to spend the next two years tracking and comparing data collected by a rooftop weather station and sensors placed throughout the North Portland store's roof.
He and PSU students will measure the roof's soil and vegetation temperatures, among other factors, to test whether green roofs lower urban air temperatures, contribute to building efficiency and reduce stormwater runoff.
The Hayden Meadows Walmart, which opened last month, is the third in the country to feature a green roof, and PSU researchers aren't the only ones taking advantage of the large-scale pilot project. Portland's Bureau of Environmental Services will compare the amount of stormwater runoff from the green roof's three different sections, BES engineer Tim Kurtz said.
Cadmus Group, an environmental consulting firm with a Portland office, will study whether the green roof's cooling properties improve the efficiency of the building's air conditioning units. The Audubon Society of Portland plans to count the number of birds that visit.
Walmart designed the green roof with research in mind because the big-box retailer wants to know how it can improve the efficiency of its stores and ultimately lower the cost of doing business, Walmart spokeswoman Rachel Wall said.
Walmart installed its first green roof in 2006 on roughly half of a Chicago store's 133,000-square-foot roof, and it's been carefully monitored, Wall said. The retailer installed a second green roof in the Chicago area before deciding to build one in Portland to learn how it would fare in a more moderate climate, she said.
"The company is looking at ensuring we have data from the pilots so we can see where it works best and what climates work best and will save us the most money," Wall said.
Through data collected from the first Chicago green roof, Walmart determined that the cost to maintain the vegetated half of the roof is 45 percent less than the cost for the white membrane, she said. Most of the savings can be attributed to the way the green roof has protected the drains, preventing damage and clogging, Wall said.
One way green roofs can help Walmart become more efficient is by cooling the air that feeds into store air conditioning units, said Allen Lee, executive director of Cadmus Group's energy services division. The firm plans to compare whether the air conditioning units on the green portion of the Portland Walmart roof consume less energy than those on the rest of the roof, he said.
Sailor said he's hopeful the PSU research will not only help Walmart plan for green roofs on other stores, but also share knowledge with other companies planning similar projects.
The varying soil depths on the Hayden Meadows Walmart green roof range from 3 to 5 inches, Sailor said.
Kurtz said that by tracking runoff from the Walmart green roof the city hopes to find out if adding more soil makes a significant difference in how much rainwater is absorbed. Increasing the soil depth adds to the cost of a green roof project and is a significant consideration, especially with existing buildings, he said.
"Weight is usually a huge issue because you don't want to put too much weight on an existing building," Kurtz said.
Philadelphia-based firm Roofmeadow designed the green roofs for the two Walmart stores in Chicago and the one in Portland. The firm's president, Charlie Miller, said irrigation is another factor to consider.


MedStar Washington Hospital Center has a total of 33 operating suites supporting our extensive operative services.
Our RN Residency program in Perioperative Services is offered for RNs with one year of Med/Surg experience and no perioperative experience. The program to prepare an RN for the operating room consists of three weeks of classroom instruction, followed by six-eight months of clinical orientation. Nurses preparing to work in the preoperative and postoperative areas will attend 5 days of classroom instruction and approximately 10 weeks of clinical orientation covering both the preoperative and postoperative areas.
This area has 21 operating suites and 2 satellite operating suites. Perioperative Services perform 25,000 surgical cases annually. Many of the cases in the Main Operating Room are cutting edge, complex and include Trauma, Open Heart, Neurosurgery, Transplant, Orthopedics and Oncology. Other specialties include a state of the art Endovascular Suite and Robotics. The Post-Anesthesia Care Recovery Room (PACU), a leading edge space designed to support critical care nursing, is one of the few in the country with an acute care nurse practitioner practicing daily on the unit providing tremendous support to our nursing staff. It includes a 24/7 system with 17 bays to recover patients from surgery in the main operating room system. The majority of these patients go to a medical-surgical nursing unit or to intensive care after recovery. Care is coordinated and directed in a team oriented process.
ATC provides preoperative assessment and testing for AM admit and outpatients who require anesthesia services, prior to their surgery/procedure date. This can include a history and physical, lab work, and ECG. In addition to skilled registered nurses and phlebotomists, the ATC staff includes advance clinicians (Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants) who are trained by the anesthesiology team to provide thorough and safe pre-anesthesia assessment and clearance. The ATC is open Monday through Saturday for patient convenience.
Open Monday through Friday, the third floor unit includes eight operating rooms, a burn debridement room, two treatment rooms, preoperative preparation and recovery. Surgical specialties served in this area include (but are not limited to) renal vascular, urology, gynecology, burns and ophthalmology surgeries. It also houses a robot used for urology surgeries.
This unit cares for both in-house and newly arriving patients with 18 preoperative preparation bays and 6 post-operative recovery bays. Our anesthesiology pain team works closely with the nursing staff to optimize pain management in the early postoperative period. Patients having same day surgery recover from anesthesia and, when appropriate, are prepared for discharge to home the same day. Same Day surgery nurse conduct postoperative phone calls within 48 hours of discharge to follow up on outpatient recovery.
The endoscopy suite has 8 procedure rooms. Serving a mix of inpatients and outpatients, this unit performs a variety of endoscopic and diagnostic procedures including colonoscopies, ERCP, EGD, bronchoscopies, hydrogen breath tests and motility studies.


See all of double pipe link, there are 2 more in this node.
"The best way to get the right answer on the internet is not to ask a question; it's to post the wrong answer."
The nodegel I imagine is a patchwork-patterned fertile crescent of the arcane, obscure, and brilliant. There a field of barley, and there a field of rye. There a field of sorghum, and there a field with turtles stacked up unto the sky. Myriad gardens of blooming flowers, aromatic citrus fruits, and lost tools yearning to be found.
Perhaps the double pipe link is such a tool. Perhaps you didn't know you were missing it.
There are four primary types of links within E2: soft, firm, hard, and pipe. There are many more than four possible applications, however, with pipe link functionality being the most intriguing for grammatical abuses.
Homenode shortcuts - [gate] will send you to the gate node, whereas [gate[user]] will send you to gate's homenode.
Direct Search page shortcut - [link and link] will send you to a wonderful user-manual node. [link qkx] will send you to a search page for all nodes containing "link". Alternatively, you can append uncommon punctuation such as "link.,." to trigger a search page.
ABBR tags - [go|show] will display as "show", link to "go", and have a mouseover tag "whoa".
Acronym tags - [go|<acronym title="whoa">show</acronym>] will display as "show", link to "go", and have a mouseover tag "whoa".
E2 HTML etceteras - On E2 only one argument may be passed to an HTML tag. You may align your paragraphs with [p align=justify] but you cannot create a table header with Fruits	 because the second argument for the header will be ignored. Similarly for  and <acronym> tags, anything after the first space (or special character of any kind, including punctuation) will not be displayed.
It tastes like burning Pipe link E2 HTML tags : Chapter 6 How is it that Mexicans know neither Chili con Carne nor Toilet Paper?

Senior aid to Iran FM holds talks with Syrian officials
TEHRAN, Jul. 03 (MNA) – Iranian Foreign Minister's Senior Aid of Special Political Affairs Ali Asghar Khaji met and held talks with senior Syrian officials in Damascus on Tuesday.
In a meeting with Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Muallem, the two sides stressed the need for enhanced coordination and consultations between the two countries regarding upcoming international meetings on the political process in Syria and all-out promotion of bilateral relations.
The two officials then discussed the recent regional developments and the US economic terrorism against Syria and Iran.
In a press statement following the meeting, Khaji described the talks as "very constructive," saying that there was a wide dialogue on the need for activating and developing bilateral relations between Iran and Syria in all domains.
Earlier in the day, Khaji held separate talks with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and Deputy Foreign and Expatriates Minister Fayssal Mikdad.
During the meeting with Assad, the Syrian president said Damascus fully supports the Iranian nation and the Islamic establishment against all threats and acts, which contravene international law and regulations.
He underscored his country's backing for Iran and its leadership, stating that Syria defends Iranians' strive for their rights and stands by them against all threats and acts that violate the basis of the international law.
Assad was then briefed on the developments concerning the Iran nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), following the US departure from the 2015 agreement, and Washington's latest escalatory moves in the Middle East region.
The two sides also exchanged viewpoints on Syria's counter-terrorism campaign, counterattacks to assaults being carried out by foreign-sponsored Takfiri terrorist groups positioned in Syria's embattled northwestern province of Idlib, initiatives for a political solution to Syria's crisis, the next round of Syria peace talks in Kazakhstan, as well as the latest regional and international developments.
Khaji, for his part, pointed to the deeply-rooted relations between Tehran and Damascus, emphasizing that Iran is determined to bolster such ties in all areas in order to serve the interests of both nations.
He stressed that the Iranian nation and government will continue to support Syria until it liberates all its territory and rebuilds what has been destroyed by the war.

Carlo Heckman was an Industrial Designer from Akron, Ohio whose work in the 1950's went largely unnoticed until just recently.
He was best known for his work with birthday candles. In the late 1950's, Heckman was at a birthday party for his grandfather and was disturbed by the randomly placed candles on the cake. He immediately started working on a solution and came up with what he called the "Heckman Method." This involved selling one long candle for every four short ones. People were warm to the idea initially but abandoned the method once they realized that more wax ended up on the cake this way.
With the relative success of the candles he took some time to write his first book, A Practical Guide to Sticks: The First Ever Guide to Naming and Utilizing Nature's Forgotten Gift. For the book, he categorized and named hundreds of different stick shapes and made suggestions for how they could be used in people's daily lives. The "Two-Armed Wallach" could be used as a hanger, for example. Other notable sticks included the Stubbed Randy (used for mixing paint), the Left Handed Squire (toilet paper holder), and the Bonanza (best used as a coat rack). The book wasn't very successful in the US but found a small following in Italy despite the fact that it wasn't professionally translated.
With the royalties from the candles dwindling and slow book sales, Heckman faded away into obscurity in the 70's and early 80's. In 1986, he recorded himself reading most of his practical guide on cassette and started selling them for a buck at local punk rock shows. He named the audio book Sticking it to the Man: C. Heckman's Guide on How to Get all of the Products You Need from your own Backyard. The cassette also featured a couple of songs by a local band named "The Zuzzly Boys."
Heckman passed away in 1998. His ideas for using sticks as products are finally starting to pick up momentum—something Heckman would certainly be happy about.
Design Fancy is a series of short stories about fictional designers who make fictional things. The stories (and the objects) are by Matt Brown, a freelance designer who splits his time between Michigan and Genoa.
Great!! Matt love it, good to hear from you!
Brilliant Matt! I'd stopped visiting the blog for awhile because i thought there was something missing. Now you're here. :-) keep up the sheer awesomeness!
matt brown, still an inspiration even after all these years!
Random question... I was walking to lunch the other day and saw through a window what looks like a color version of the portrait of 'heckman' hung in a restaurant... Where did your sketch come from? I almost went inside to ask about it, but then realized they would probably think I was nuts... The restaurant in question is Sermets in Charleston, SC.
what an awesome thing to find - hilarious! creativity like this is far too often unappreciated. ignorant statements like, "this is boring" come to mind. that candle packaging is terrific.
I can read a full book of design stories like that!
Awesome. More subversive articles please Core77! If Carlo Heckman could have pitched Weyerhauser on design strategy, how to use all of the tree, and hit up the BRIC and PIGS for new business, he might have lasted long enough to get his recordings on the iTunes store.

The Book Lover's Guide to London – Sarah Milne
9 October 2021 ~ lilaclicoricetissie
London is London. It's hard for me to resist its siren call, because—well, there's no because. I like it, plain and simple. Cities with that much history, cities that witnessed the passing of time, they're fascinating by definition. I don't wish to live there, but hey, I wish I could visit it for a couple of weeks.
Even more so if it's as interesting as Sarah Milne says it is.
Many of the greatest names in literature have visited or made their home in the colourful and diverse metropolis of London. From Charles Dickens to George Orwell, Virginia Woolf to Bernadine Evaristo, London's writers have bought the city to life through some of the best known and loved stories and characters in fiction.
This book takes you on an area-by-area journey through London to discover the stories behind the stories told in some of the most famous novels, plays and poems written in, or about, the city.
• Find out which poet almost lost one of his most important manuscripts in a Soho pub.
• Discover how Graham Greene managed to survive the German bomb that destroyed his Clapham home.
• Climb down the dingy steps from London Bridge to Thames path below and imagine how it felt to be Nancy trying to save Oliver Twist, only to then meet her own violent death.
• Drink in same pub Bram Stoker listened to the ghost stories that inspired Dracula, the plush drinking house where Noel Coward performed, and the bars and cafes frequented by modern writers.
• Tour the locations where London's writers, and their characters lived, worked, played, loved, lost and died.
This is the first literature guide to London to be fully illustrated with beautiful colour photographs throughout the book. This unique book can be used a guidebook on a physical journey through London, or as a treasury of fascinating, often obscure tales and information for book lovers to read wherever they are.
Pen & Sword Books
Cover: Uh. Too chaotic for me.
The Book Lover's Guide to London is a handy travel guide written by Sarah Milne. What makes it stand out among the sea of travel guides is Milne's approach to the city. She prefers to stray from the beaten path—good!—offering the reader a new perspective concerning London. There are pictures of buildings and statues I never encountered before, curiosities, and anecdotes, each of them framed inside a nice graphic layout. What a refreshing take!
The primary focus is on famous artists who used to live in London. Writers and poets, they're all immortalized in their own district.
Smart choice of structure. Every chapter is about a different section of the town, with subsections focusing on districts.
Last but not least, Milne's style is a delight. Reading The Book Lover's Guide to London has been a pleasure.

To spare you some plumbing trouble this Turkey Day, we've prepared a few tips and tricks for you!
- Avoid sending heaps of vegetable and potato peels down the garbage disposal! If it's easiest to peel over the sink, simply put a grocery bag over the drain and let the peels fall into that--tie it up when you're finished and toss it in the trash!
- When you do use your disposal, let the water run and gradually feed things into to avoid overloading it.
-Deep frying a bird this year? Keep the grease out of the drain! Pour it into a bottle or a trash can once it has cooled.
- If you're using a dishwasher, be sure to run it only once it's full. This will save you water and time!

It Is Now Easy To Stream Blizzard Games Such As 'Overwatch' And 'Hearthstone' On Facebook: Your Move, Twitch
Aaron Mamiit, Tech Times 27 August 2016, 10:08 pm
Blizzard has launched Blizzard Streaming, a new feature for Battle.net that will initiate a live stream on Facebook with just a single click.
The feature, which was first announced a couple of months ago, allows players to broadcast on Facebook Live while they play Blizzard games on their PC. The user's friends will be able to watch the live-streamed footage and post comments in real time, with the streams focused on games such as Overwatch, Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft, Diablo 3, World of Warcraft, Starcraft 2 and Heroes of the Storm.
Upon updating their Battle.net client, gamers will see a camera icon in the upper right corner beside their username. The first time that the icon is clicked, gamers will be asked to log in with their Facebook accounts and allow the permissions necessary for the feature.
After linking their Facebook accounts, gamers will see a streaming window pop out. In the window, there will be options and controls for things such as changing the title of the live stream, enabling or disabling the microphone or webcam, and choosing the gamer's Facebook friends that the live stream will be shared with.
Once the settings are all good to go, including the advanced settings if gamers want to dive into even deeper tweaks, initiating the live stream is easily done by hitting the "Start Stream" option.
Blizzard Streaming, which is now available for gamers living in the Americas, Australia, Southeast Asia and New Zealand, will also be getting a global release soon. The feature is currently only available for Windows PC users, but it will also be rolled out to Mac computers in the future.
When the feature was first announced, Blizzard Streaming is seen as a shot by Facebook against the popular video game streaming service Twitch. While the Amazon-owned service will likely stay on top of the video game streaming industry, the space is now suddenly crowded with the addition of Blizzard Streaming on Facebook Live and YouTube Gaming, which was launched a year ago.
Facebook Live, in partnership with Blizzard for Blizzard Streaming, has the potential to overtake Twitch though, as while Twitch boasts of a user base of 100 million, Facebook currently has 650 million users playing games linked to the social network.
While Facebook's video game streaming function will need to catch up with the years of development invested by Twitch, Blizzard Streaming will offer streamers a much wider audience compared with broadcasting on Twitch, immediately setting up a rivalry between the two services.

In Bedoya v. American Eagle Express Inc., the Third Circuit Court of Appeals held that the Federal Aviation Authorization Administration Act of 1994 (FAAAA) does not preempt New Jersey's wage and hour laws, permitting delivery drivers to continue with a suit claiming they were misclassified as independent contractors. As a result of this decision, motor carriers located in states within the Third Circuit (Delaware, New Jersey and Pennsylvania) will need to ensure their relationships with drivers classified as independent contractors satisfy the so-called "ABC" test.

Forum member Bill Goad's 6XC II Hunter Rests in a Whitetail Rack taken this past year.
One of the most popular items in our Shooters' Forum is the ongoing "Pride and Joy" thread. Since 2009, Forum members have posted photos and descriptions of their most prized rifles. Here are some of the most recent "Pride and Joy" rifles showcased in our Forum. Do you have a gun you'd like to see featured there? Just Register for the Forum and you can add your favorite gun to the list.
This beauty belongs to Forum member FalconPilot. He tells us that his "Lastest F-Classer features a Shurley Brothers SOD stock in beautiful Claro Walnut." Components include Bat M action, Bix-N-Andy trigger, and Nightforce Comp scope. FalconPilot has several barrels for this Open-Class rig, including tubes chambered for .284 Win and 6mm Dasher.
Forum member Eric32 spent months building out this rifle, "getting it to work just right for PRS". Designed for practical/tactical matches, this rugged rig features a blue-printed Rem 700 action (with 1.5-lb 40X trigger) in an XLR Element chassis. On the end of the .308 Bartlein 5R barrel is a JP brake. Other components include: PiG skins barricade grips, Atlas Bipod, and GGG bungee sling. On top is a SWFA HD 5-20x50mm optic with Vortex scope level and custom throw-lever.
Forum member Willow reports: "Here is my new F-Open gun. It features a hydro-dipped LowBoy stock and LH Barnard Model P action with 'V' bedding block. The barrel is a straight profile 32″, 1:8.5″ twist Bartlein 5R, chambered in 280AI by Matt Paroz". On top is a Vortex 10-60x52mm Golden Eagle in a Spuhr 3001 mount. Willow says his lightning bolt rig is a shooter: "After 42 rounds through the barrel, I'm liking what I am seeing so far". Check out that trick aluminum base for his rear Edgewood bag.
Components: McMillan A5 adjustable stock in GAP Camo, Stiller TAC 30 A/W action, Jewell HVR trigger, Badger bottom metal and DBM, Atlas Bipod, Nightforce NXS F1 3.5-15×50 with MLR 2.0 reticle. Metal has been Cerakoted graphite black.
You have to give credit to a guy who crafts his own custom wood stock. This 6mm BRX benchgun features a custom-built laminated stock featuring Cherry wood with vivid Redheart pieces on the sides and Redwood Burl on the buttplate. The front of the stock is 4″ wide. The action is a Benchrest Borden RBLP Right Eject unit, with custom titanium scope rings on top. Owner Erick C. is proud of this stock, saying it is "the best one I've built so far". We agree it's a beauty.

Many of our Forum members shoot an "improved" 6mmBR cartridge. This might be a 30°-shoulder 6mm BRX, or a 40°-shoulder 6mm Dasher, or the 6mm BRDX, which is very similar to the Dasher, but with a slightly longer neck. This Editor shoots a 6mm BRDX and has found it very accurate, and maybe a bit easier to fire-form than a standard Dasher. Speaking of fire-forming, in our Shooters' Forum, we often see questions about fire-forming BRX/Dasher brass. For those who need a large number of BRX or Dasher cases, one option to consider is using pistol powder in a dedicated fire-forming barrel. Here's an explanation of how this process can work.
Forum member Skeeter has a 6mm Dasher falling block varmint rifle. The Dasher case is based on the 6mmBR Norma cartridge with the shoulder blown forward about 0.100″ and out to 40°. This gives the Dasher roughly 3.5 grains added capacity compared to the standard 6BR.
A few seasons back, Skeeter needed to form 300 cases for varmint holiday. Skeeter decided to fire-form his brass without bullets. This method avoids barrel wear and saves on components. There are various ways to do this, but Skeeter chose a method using pistol/shotgun powder, some tissue to hold the powder in place, Cream of Wheat filled to within an 1/8″ of top of the neck, and a "plug" of tissue paper to hold it all in place. Shown below are cases filled with a pistol/shotgun powder charge topped with Cream of Wheat and then a tissue paper plug.
To ensure the case headspaced firmly in his Dasher chamber, Skeeter created a "false shoulder" where the new neck-shoulder junction would be after fire-forming. After chamfering his case mouths, Skeeter necked up all his cases with a 0.257″ mandrel (one caliber oversized). Then he used a bushing neck-sizing die to bring the top half of the neck back down to 0.267″ to fit his 0.269″ chamber. The photo below shows how the false shoulder is created.
After creating the false shoulder, Skeeter chambered the cases in his rifle to ensure he could close the bolt and that he had a good "crush fit" on the false shoulder, ensuring proper headspace. All went well.
The next step was determining the optimal load of pistol powder. Among a variety of powders available, Skeeter chose Hodgdon Titewad as it is relatively inexpensive and burns clean. The goal was to find just the right amount of Titewad that would blow the shoulder forward sufficiently. Skeeter wanted to minimize the amount of powder used and work at a pressure that was safe for his falling block action.
Working incrementally, Skeeter started at 5.0 grains of Titewad, working up in 0.5 grain increments. As you can see, the 5.0 grain charge blew the shoulder forward, but left it a hemispherical shape. At about 7.0 grains of Titewad, the edge of the shoulder and case body was shaping up. Skeeter decided that 8.5 grains of Titewad was the "sweet spot". He tried higher charges, but the shoulder didn't really form up any better. It will take another firing or two, with a normal match load of rifle powder and a bullet seated, to really sharpen up the shoulders. Be sure to click on the "View Larger Image" link to get a good view of the cases.
The process proved to be a success. Skeeter now has hundreds of fire-formed Dasher cases and he hasn't had to put one bullet through his nice, new match-grade barrel. The "bulletless" Cream of Wheat method allowed him to fire-form in a tight-necked barrel without neck-turning the brass first. The only step now remaining is to turn the newly Dasher-length necks down about .0025″ to fit his 0.269″ chamber. (To have no-turn necks he would need an 0.271″ or 0.272″ chamber).
Skeeter did have a fire-forming barrel, but it was reamed with a .269 chamber like his 10-twist Krieger "good" barrel. If he fire-formed with bullets, he would have to turn all 300 necks to .267″ BEFORE fire-forming so that loaded rounds would fit in the chamber. Judging just how far to turn is problematic. There's no need to turn the lower part of the neck that will eventually become shoulder–but how far down the neck to turn is the issue. By fire-forming without bullets now he only has to turn about half the original neck length, and he knows exactly how far to go.

Wouldn't it be cool if your gun case could do double-duty as a shooting mat? That would be smart — you'd have one less item to carry to the range. Well such a thing does exist. Uncle Mike's Long Range Tactical Bag protects your rifle during transport, then quickly and easily converts to a 78″ shooting mat. Measuring 50″ in length, with a 15″-tall main compartment, this bag is big enough to handle most tactical and F-TR rifles with optics and Harris-type bipods attached. A 30″ flip-out forward section includes a front load strap that allows shooters to pre-load the bipod legs while shooting prone.
The Long Range Shooting bag has four self-adjusting magazine pockets, which will hold magazine sizes from .223/5.56mm to .308/7.62mm. Conveniently, this new 50″-long soft case will fit inside the popular Pelican model 1750 hard case (for those situations where you need greater protection).

New fisheries factory to boost Chatham Islands economy
Wednesday, 9 December 2015, 4:35 pm
Press Release: Aotearoa Fisheries
News release from Aotearoa Fisheries
New fisheries factory to boost Chatham Islands economy and community in the long term
The brand new Aotearoa Fisheries Ltd factory was opened on the Chatham Islands yesterday by the Minister for Primary Industries, Hon Nathan Guy, in a celebratory ceremony that recognised the boost it would give the local economy.
With the new factory's export capability, it will provide ongoing and increased employment in the long term, have a positive spin off for other industries such as shipping and aviation, and enable premium seafood such as blue cod, lobster and pāua to be showcased in global markets.
The construction phase of the new factory has already provided extra employment locally, and Aotearoa Fisheries Chatham Islands Manager, George Day, says existing staff are very excited about having a more efficient and safer place to work.
"The new facility has been designed with the future in mind, with lower maintenance materials, and increased capacity on a smaller foot print. Staff have been working at another plant over the construction period, and they're very much looking forward to coming back to our new state-of-the-art factory," says Mr Day.
Aotearoa Fisheries Chief Executive Carl Carrington says this is the company's first major investment on the Chatham Islands since the lobster plant 15 years ago, and cements its long term commitment not only to the economy, but to the fishery, community and the local Hokotehi Moriori Trust and Ngati Mutunga o Wharekauri Iwi.
"This is built on an entirely different business model. We see this as a true partnership between Aotearoa Fisheries and the people of the Chatham Islands. It's a long-standing relationship and one that we value. We are delighted to be strengthening our ties with all our stakeholders there," he says.
The $3m commitment by Aotearoa Fisheries to rebuilding its factory in the Chatham Islands goes hand in hand with the pledge from Government to invest $52m upgrading Waitangi Wharf.
Not only is a new wharf to withstand the weather essential to fishing operations, but it is also the only cargo-handling facility on the Chatham Islands for supplies such as diesel for the electricity grid and fuel for air services.
Labour Deputy Leader and Chatham Islands MP, Annette King, says the factory opening is hugely positive for the close-knit, rural community of 650 people.
"Aotearoa Fisheries is to be congratulated for its initiative and foresight in continuing to invest in the Chathams. It is wonderful to see local businesses expanding and creating new employment opportunities. The boost to the economy and the effect of that on the community and on the rest of New Zealand can only be positive, with the Chatham Islands a major contributor to the country as a whole," she says.
"Be in no doubt, there is a different game in town. It has been a few years in the making but today marks an important milestone. It is a game that is focused on delivering social outcomes, sustainability outcomes, equitable economic outcomes that recognise the effort and risk everyone takes in this industry. It is a business that to be sustainable and successful must be anchored in the community" says Carl.

It is very common for people who have sustained a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) to also experience headaches and depression. Because the symptoms of mTBI, headache, and depression often overlap (i.e., neck pain, photosensitivity, and dizziness), it can be difficult for a doctor to tease out the effects unique to the headache so that treatment can be targeted.
The results of this study may help target treatments towards reducing headache, such as managing tinnitus symptoms, addressing dizziness with vestibular rehabilitation, and treating insomnia.

When operating a hair-dressing salon, Scott got a call from the hairdresser saying that the doors to the salon had been locked because they couldn't afford to pay the rent – and so he had to call his mum to pay the rent.

The Disappearance of Madeline McCann
March 28, 2019	Abduction, Human Trafficking, Kidnapping, Missing Children, Missing Persons, News
Madeline McCann disappeared in May of 2003 while on a vacation with her mother, father, and set of younger twin siblings in Praia de Luz, Portugal.
The disappearance of Madeline McCann is arguably the most internationally famous missing child case since the Lindbergh baby vanished in 1932. The story received an unprecedented amount of media attention throughout the globe due to the international nature of the case and the public relations campaign that struggled to keep the child's face out there in the public eye. Now, in 2019, Netflix has released an eight-episode docuseries, The Disappearance of Madeline McCann, about the case, taking a hard look at the investigation and media coverage surrounding the case since Madeline disappeared 11 years ago.
Madeline McCann was just three years old in May 2003, when she accompanied her family—mother Kate, father Gerry, and a set of younger twin siblings—on a family vacation to Praia da Luz, Portugal. During the course of their stay at a resort community, it became regular practice for Kate and Gerry to put the children down for the night before travelling less than 200 feet away from their apartment to a tapas restaurant where they had dinner with friends. The parents were not worried for their children's safety because—according to the McCanns and their friends—the window to their apartment was in full view of their regular table at the tapas restaurant. According to statements from the McCanns and their party, the parents would walk back over to the apartment hourly to check on their children. After checking the children several times, it wasn't until 10:00 PM that Kate McCann realized her daughter was missing, and immediately raised the alarm.
The documentary chronicles the roller coaster of investigative measures and leads over the course of the investigation. Over the years, there have been multiple leads in the case that appeared promising, such as a famous sighting by one of the McCann's party of a man walking in the vicinity of the McCann's apartment carrying a sleeping child. Praia de Luz local, Robert Murat, was a suspect early on in the investigation due to his inexplicable special interest in assisting law enforcement and his continued insertion of himself in their investigation. He was eventually cleared by Portugal authorities. Many angles in the investigation concern the likelihood that Madeline was abducted from her bed by a predator who had been casing the apartment during the McCann's stay at the resort. The docuseries, The Disappearance of Madline McCann, goes into heavy detail about how simple it would be for a predator to abduct Madeline, and then—within a window of less than 2 hours—have been able to smuggle her out of the country to jump jurisdictional lines and cover their tracks, all in the interest of introducing the child into the dark world of sex trafficking.
While support for the McCann family has remained in the years since Madeline went missing, the vitriol that Kate and Gerry McCann have endured comes from allegations that they themselves might have played a role in their daughter's disappearance. Law enforcement in Praia de Luz made note that the two smaller children sleeping in Madeline's room remained asleep during their time in the apartment at the onset of the investigation. Despite a great deal of commotion and adults moving from room to room as they searched for Madeline, the set of young twins did not wake or stir at any time. This led to suspicions that the children might have been drugged in order to ensure they would not wake while the parents were across the way at dinner. Both Kate and Gerry McCann were physicians at the time of Madeline's disappearance, with Kate having reportedly specialized in anesthetics before moving into private practice.
An age-progression photo of Madeline continues to circulate within the campaign to bring her home.
The docuseries makes a point to highlight the importance that media coverage can play in any missing persons case. It was a subject of note that the McCanns hired public relations representatives to help keep the campaign to find Madeline alive in the media, with high saturation of her name in the UK, Portugal, and throughout the globe. Of the thousands of missing child cases that are currently open throughout the world, Madeline's face is one of the most famous—along with Elizabeth Smart and Jaycee Dugard, two young girls who were abducted, were kept captive, and were eventually reunited with their families following a successful, albeit years-long investigation. Talking heads in the series note that although Madeline's case was an extreme example of media coverage, the question remains how other missing children's cases would have benefited from the same amount of attention the McCann case received. Despite hundreds of tips and leads that have surfaced over the years, the truth of what happened to Madeline McCann still remains a mystery.

Guantanamo Hearings Focus on Conflict, Self-Representation
By John RyanOctober 27, 2015Guantanamo Bay, News & Features, News Articles
The military commission against five defendants accused of planning and financing the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks took a step forward this week when the judge, Army Col. James Pohl, ruled that a previous federal criminal investigation into the defense team for Ramzi bin al Shibh did not create a conflict of interest for the defendant. The ruling allows the case to move forward without Bin al Shibh first having to make a decision about waiving any alleged conflict.
The conflict issue has played an important role in stalling substantial progress in the proceedings for about a year and a half. The investigation into members of the Bin al Shibh team did not result in any criminal charges. Pohl said Monday morning he was satisfied that the investigation was complete and that "no further action will be taken on the investigation by any entity of the United States Government," allowing the team, led by James Harrington, to stay on the case for now.
However, Pohl also ordered the government to turn over information about the investigation to defense lawyers – not necessarily limited to Harrington's team – which they could use to to file future motions about possible attorney-client conflict issues.
After a short break, Monday's hearings at the Camp Justice legal complex on Guantanamo Bay ended abruptly when another defendant, Walid bin Attash, raised the issue that prompted last week's delays – his interest in learning more about representing himself.
Bin Attash told Pohl that he was ready to discuss self-representation.
However, his lead attorney, Cheryl Bormann, told Pohl that a matter had arisen in the preceding days that would affect the advisement of pro se rights. Bormann could not specify in open court what had happened other than to say the matter involved defense-team "work product" and that it may result in her withdrawal from the case.
Pohl called a recess until Wednesday morning so that Bormann could investigate whatever had transpired and be in a better position to advise her client.
The other defendants in the case are Ammar al Baluchi, Mustafa al Hawsawi and accused plot mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. All face the death penalty for their alleged roles in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, though no trial is yet scheduled given the abundance of unresolved pre-trial motions. All were in court on Monday but al Hawsawi, who waived his right to be there.
Conflict Hearings Held Sunday and Monday
Arguments on the conflict matter began in a rare Sunday hearing before concluding on Monday. Last fall, Pohl had ruled that a conflict did not exist for the defendants, with the exception of Bin al Shibh. The FBI had also investigated a linguist for the Mohammed team, but Pohl found that this could not have affected "trial strategy or intensity of effort" because the defense team did not know about the investigation. Bin al Shibh's situation required "further examination," Pohl ruled.
At issue this week was whether Pohl should order the government to provide additional details about the investigation to Harrington and his team so they could more fully discuss with Bin al Shibh the extent of a potential conflict, allowing him to decide on a waiver.
At the start of the Sunday hearing, at which no defendants were present except Bin al Shibh, Harrington suggested that his client might have a difficult time participating in a discussion about the conflict issue. Bin al Shibh has long complained that vibrations and sounds are being pumped into his cell at the Camp 7 detention facility, preventing him from sleeping, and he claimed that it happened again after last Thursday's proceedings.
"He is in a very bad way," Harrington said. "He believes that the vibrations are still happening. They are keeping him awake. He gets no relief from it, and it puts him in a position where it's very difficult for him to knowingly and actively participate in these proceedings."
David Nevin, the lead attorney for Mohammed, added that his "client has reported a similar occurrence."
Pohl denied Harrington's motion for a continuation, and the parties moved on to the substance of the conflict issue.
Fernando Campoamor-Sanchez, a Justice Department lawyer on the "special review team" litigating the conflict matter, portrayed the current state of affairs as straightforward: With the investigation concluded, there could be no actual or potential conflict of interest. He urged Pohl to rule accordingly. (The chief prosecutor of the military commission who will be trying the 9/11 defendants, Army Brig. Gen. Mark Martins, is walled off from these proceedings and his team was not in court during the conflict proceedings.)
Campoamor-Sanchez's position met with multiple objections from the defense side of the room. Harrington said that the government's court filings attesting to the closure of the investigation included a disconcerting caveat – that the investigation was closed "at this time" – which may mean that it could reopen.
"Unless there is a more firm representation that there is nothing pending and they have no intention of reopening this allegation, I still think that it hangs out there," Harrington said.
He said he needed more discovery on the issue so that he could help Bin al Shibh make an informed decision about whether to keep his legal team.
"I am in the dark," Harrington said.
Also voicing concern was Air Force Lt. Col. Julie Pitvorec, who was assigned as a special independent counsel to advise Bin al Shibh on the conflict issue. Pitvorec has learned the details of the investigation but has not been able to discuss them with Bin al Shibh because of the restrictions on classified information.
Pitvorec said that the investigation into the Bin al Shibh team members targeted the "the manner in which they were conducting their representation" of the client. She saw, at the very least, an appearance of a conflict. She said that the investigation would have had a "chilling effect" on defense counsel.
When Nevin addressed the court, he displayed on the courtroom monitor a printout of an Oct. 2 Reuters article that provided an account of the FBI investigation into Bin al Shibh's team. According to the article, an investigation was touched off by a phone call made by a defense team translator to Bin al Shibh's brother. If the article was correct, Nevin said, it meant the government had been investigating something that defense teams "are required by law to do" by working with family members on mitigation issues.
"It's not something that's optional," Nevin said.
Nevin had filed a motion for reconsideration of Pohl's earlier ruling on the conflict issue. Now, he said, he wanted Pohl not to rule until he could receive more information.
The lead attorney for al Baluchi, James Connell, said that the defense teams had been "laboring under a potential conflict" for the past 18 months, and that his team had changed its tactics after learning of the investigation. He also wanted Pohl to reconsider last year's ruling on the conflict issue and has been pushing for more discovery as a result of the uncertainty he sees regarding the details of the probe.
"We honestly still don't know who its targets were, other than members of the Bin al Shibh team," Connell said. "And once we get the actual discovery and the actual documents, it may turn out to be broader than that."
Campoamor-Sanchez described Connell's position as a "sideshow," and said he would provide Harrington with more information about the investigation after Pohl had ruled on the conflict issue.
For his part, Pohl wasn't convinced that an investigation, if closed, presented a potential conflict of interest. Instead, he said, it may be a "representational" issue that touches on the adequacy of legal representation during the period in which defense counsel knew about the probe and acted differently. Either way, Bin al Shibh would at some point need to know more about the investigation, he suggested.
"I see he needs to know what happened, I got that," Pohl said during an exchange with Pitvorec. "But it strikes me it slides more into the representational capacity as opposed to waiving a conflict that no longer exists."
But Pohl hadn't fully decided by the end of Sunday's hearing, and allowed additional arguments on Monday.
Campoamor-Sanchez began Monday's hearing by rearticulating some of his arguments from the previous day. He referred to the position taken by defense lawyers as untenable: "They are complaining about being in this cloud and yet they want to prolong this cloud."
He told Pohl again that he should rule on the conflict, then the government could provide discovery to the defense lawyers.
Connell responded with a colorful hypothetical – his best friend telling him that he had an affair with his wife and then giving him "a letter, a redacted letter, saying that the affair was closed at this time and that I should just forget about it and move on." Connell said he would have three questions for his wife and his best friend, covering, in order: what they were thinking; what actually happened; and whether he could trust them moving forward.
Pohl chimed in a with a fourth question: Would a person in that situation want to stay married? His point was that the matter before him was "a representational issue."
Connell responded the first three questions should be answered first. He urged Pohl to order discovery before ruling on the conflict issue, reversing the order of steps that Campoamor-Sanchez had suggested.
In the end, Pohl's siding with the government will likely end up determining only the sequence of future litigation of the conflict issue. He also ordered the special review team to provide discovery to "any team that the discovery is relevant to, including but not necessarily limited to Mr. Harrington and his team."
"Obviously this issue may come up again once defense counsel have reviewed the information provided by the government," Connell said in a brief post-hearing interview.

Enums are very useful, but some programs don't actually need the generated code and would benefit from simply inlining all instances of enum members with their numeric equivalents. The new const enum declaration works just like a regular enum for type safety, but erases completely at compile time.
The default behavior for the TypeScript compiler is to still emit .js files if there were type errors (for example, an attempt to assign a string to a number). This can be undesirable on build servers or other scenarios where only output from a "clean" build is desired. The new flag noEmitOnError prevents the compiler from emitting .js code if there were any errors.
This is now the default for MSBuild projects; this allows MSBuild incremental build to work as expected, as outputs are only generated on clean builds.

OnLine growth slows, but sales still reach $55m
OnLine Distribution reveals revenue growth of 25% with revenues hitting $55m
March 19, 2008, 07:23 AM
Networking specialist OnLine Distribution has revealed that revenues for its latest fiscal year have climbed to $55m, representing a 25% increase on the previous twelve months. Confirmation of the top-line growth is expected to come from South African parent Datatec when it announces preliminary results to the market in mid-May.
Although OnLine's Middle East growth has slowed in comparison to the 32% rise it recorded the previous year, it is still thought to be ahead of the market average. However, the company hasn't given any indications of its profitability so it is not yet clear if it surpassed last year's EBITDA of $3m.
OnLine insists it is now working hard to develop its technology portfolio and provide more training for employees and channel partners. It also intends to mark its 15th anniversary in the region by introducing its reseller partner programme with increased focus in key countries such as Saudi Arabia.
"This year is extremely important for OnLine as it not only emphasises its longstanding establishment in the region's IT industry, but is also the year where a lot of business development activities and expansion plans are set to mature," claimed Venu Menon, sales and marketing director at Online.
OnLine recently announced that Steve Lockie, boss of its sister company Comstor Middle East, will oversee its strategy in the region after being appointed as managing director of Westcon Group Middle East, which incorporates both companies.

The market for sugar in West Africa is growing at a very fast rate, and accrding to forecasts in the next 10 years it will grow at higher rates than any other commodity. Image courtesy by Paul, 2008, Flickr CC.
Trade agent from Ghana will be buying sugar from Brazil and selling it to suppliers in West Africa. The funding is needed to obtain a buy guarantee.
We will be buying sugar and selling it to suppliers here in West Africa. The funding is needed to obtain a bank guarantee which will be used as payment instrument to the main seller of sugar. In all, a funding of 300,000 USD is needed by 25-07-2013.
Revenue will be generated through sales of sugar. I have an agent in this business for the past 5 years and there is no loss risk in it. We buy and sell to a huge supplier in the sub-region without clearing it at the port or paying duties or port charge - the buyers takes care of them all, we sell only the bill of lading to them.
The project is about 25,000 metric tons of sugar ship load for 12 months. After two months the company's profit margin will be very clear and one can tell what the company will make by the end of the year contract.
The bank guarantee renting is the only need of the company. 60% of the total profit will be the investor's ROI, 10% for the company and 30% for me.
Banks and some few individuals are our competitors but I have been in this business for the past 5 years as an agent and have great access to most buyers in the West Africa sub-region that deal with sugar.
As an agent we are closing with the buyers thereby connecting them with the sellers for a commission fee. For us to be on top we will bring down our selling price a little to draw their attention to us.
The market for sugar in West Africa is growing at a very fast rate, and in the next 10 years it will grow at higher rates than any other commodity market because sugar is used in our everyday life here in West Africa.
The most wealthy people in West Africa I know are mostly into the sugar business and they are making huge money because it gives 100% interest of cost price. I have been in the sugar business for the past five years of my life.
The funding is needed to rent a bank guarantee from one of the world's noble banks since the seller of sugar from Brazil demands it. After year one of this business the company could stand to raise the guarantee for the second and following years.
The investor will take 60% of the company shares but his views are also welcome on it.

Steve Restivo, an actor and former co-owner of Vitello's Restaurant in Studio City, Calif., died on Nov. 5 at West Hills Hospital after a year-long battle with lung cancer and complications from COVID-19, his son Roy confirmed. He was 81.
Restivo was an actor for over 50 years. He was known for frequent roles as one of Garry Marshall's acting troupe alongside Hector Elizondo and Larry Miller, appearing in films including "Nothing in Common" (1986), "Beaches" (1988), "Pretty Woman" (1990), "Frankie and Johnny" (1991), "Exit to Eden" (1994), "The Other Sister" (1999), "The Princess Diaries" (2001), "Raising Helen" (2004) and "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement" (2004). He also guest-starred in television shows such as "Quincy M.E.," "Cover Up," "Remington Steele," "Nowhere Man" and "The New Adam-12."
He and his brother Joe Restivo had owned Vitello's for nearly 30 years before the murder of Bonny Lee Bakley, the wife of Emmy-winning actor Robert Blake, outside the restaurant in 2001. Blake was charged with Bakley's murder in 2002 but ultimately a jury found him not guilt of the crimes, including conspiracy and special circumstances of lying in wait, in 2005, leaving Bakley's killing officially unsolved.
The murder gave the restaurant a certain notoriety, and it saw a large increase in customers and fame with tour-bus companies adding the location as a stop as well as several mentions on television. Restivo was interviewed about the scandalous murder case on TV programs such as "Dateline" and "Marcia Clark Investigates The First 48."
The Restivos sold Vitello's in 2005 and his brother, co-owner Joe Restivo, died in 2006.
In addition to his son Roy, Restivo is survived by his wife Sara, his sons Vince and Steve Jr., his brother Salvatore and his sister Lucy Ricciardone. Memorial services will be held Dec. 10 at 12:30 p.m. at Church of the Hills at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Hollywood Hills.
