Q: Very Slow Update despite Indexing MSSQL 2005 EDIT:
We're in the process of moving server and I've just tested this on the new server. There's no performance problem there. This seems to be down to an underpowered, badly organised server.
One of our processes suddenly ran very slowly last night. The slow step was tracked down to an update statement on a table that was admittedly not too cleverly indexed.
So today I've added indexes to all the tables involved, but I'm still getting terrible performance.
I really don't understand it - possibly I'm still doing something less than smart.
Any suggestions welcomed.
update is as follows:
update test_HDM_RTT
set patient_district_no = b.legacy_number
from test_HDM_RTT a
inner join PHD.migration.PatScope b
on a.patient_pas_no = b.TrustNumber

patscope is 2474147 rows, test_hdm_rtt is 815278

A: personally, I would only update if the value is not the same as existing. That should speed up the query
update test_HDM_RTT
set patient_district_no = b.legacy_number
from test_HDM_RTT a
 inner join PHD.migration.PatScope b
 on a.patient_pas_no = b.TrustNumber
where a.patient_district_no <> b.legacy_number

I would also check out the EXPLAIN results (ctrl + l) your query may be using the wrong index.

A: Show Execution Plan & see if the plan uses indexes.  If it doesn't,  you can force it to use a particular index:
SET ANSI_NULLS OFF
GO

update test_HDM_RTT
set patient_district_no = b.legacy_number
from test_HDM_RTT a
inner join PHD.migration.PatScope b WITH (INDEX(TrustNumber_legacy_lookup))
on a.patient_pas_no = b.TrustNumber
where a.patient_district_no <> b.legacy_number

You'll want to see if you need to force an index on test_HDM_RTT instead because it looks like it's already going to do an index scan of TrustNumber_legacy_lookup to get its data.

LOS ANGELES -- Even on a night when Clayton Kershaw looked positively human, the Los Angeles Dodgers concocted a way to win. Juan Uribe scored on David Freeses errant throw to the plate in the ninth inning, and the Dodgers evened the Freeway Series with a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Kershaw recovered from a rocky start to pitch seven innings of seven-hit ball, but he gave up three early runs to the Angels resourceful lineup. The two-time Cy Young winner didnt get a win for just the second time in 12 starts since May. "It was a struggle at first, (and) I really dont know why," Kershaw said. "I was just missing. Theyre a great team, and theyre going to hit mistakes. And sometimes theyre going to hit pitches that arent mistakes." Kershaw still left with a chance for his major league-leading 14th victory until Albert Pujols drove a tying homer into the left-field bullpen against Brian Wilson in the eighth. Uribe hit an early three-run homer for the NL-leading Dodgers. He then singled against Kevin Jepsen (0-1) and eventually scored from third on Andre Ethiers grounder off a low curveball. "Its all about putting a good, quality swing on the ball," Ethier said. Freese was charged with his second throwing error of the night when Chris Iannetta couldnt hang on to the ball for the Angels (67-45), who dropped two games behind Oakland in the AL West. "The ball just didnt have enough pace on it for David to get it and make a throw in one motion," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "On the defensive end, we hurt ourselves. Against a good club, weve got to play a clean game, especially against a guy like Clayton Kershaw." Pujols and Iannetta had RBI doubles for the Angels, who made three errors and got just one hit after the third inning. Hector Santiago yielded five hits and three walks while pitching into the sixth. Kenley Jansen (2-3) struck out the side in the ninth. The Dodgers went ahead on an unearned run without a hit in the sixth. Matt Kemp reached on Freeses first throwing error and eventually scored on Scott Van Slykes fly. STAR VS STAR: Mike Trout went 2 for 3 while facing Kershaw in the regular season for the first time in the Southern California stars careers. "I love watching a guy like that," said Trout, who has a 20-game hitting streak in interleague play. "Its pretty cool facing him." Trout beat out an infield single in the first inning, and he laced a double down the line on the first pitch of the third. Kershaw, who hadnt pitched against the Angels since 2011, struck out Trout on three pitches in the fifth. "Im not going to talk about individual at-bats," Kershaw said. "I mean, hes a great hitter and he got two hits tonight, so tip your cap." ALBERTS SHOT: Pujols eighth-inning homer was his 513th, passing Eddie Mathews and Ernie Banks for 21st place in baseball history. The shot was his first since July 9, ending a 21-game drought. TRAINERS ROOM: Angels: Left-hander Tyler Skaggs is resting his strained left forearm before the team decides on a rehabilitation plan. Dodgers: Reliever Paco Rodriguez went on the disabled list with a strained shoulder, and the Dodgers recalled Pedro Baez from Triple-A Albuquerque. ON DECK: Angels: Matt Shoemaker (9-3, 4.09 ERA) takes the mound when the Freeway Series shifts to Anaheim. The surprising right-hander has won four of five starts. Dodgers: Dan Haren (8-9, 4.76 ERA) pitched for the Angels from 2010-12, but hasnt faced them since 2007. Luke Hochevar Jersey . Dallas also Monday recalled defenceman Aaron Rome from his conditioning assignment with the Texas Stars of the American Hockey League and assigned goaltender Jack Campbell to the AHL squad. George Brett Jersey . -- Jacksonvilles offensive makeover is just getting starting. https://www.cheaproyals.com/577a-randy-rosario-jersey-royals.html . -- A year ago, Flavia Pennetta was close to retiring from tennis. Darrell Porter Jersey . -- Ryan Gropp scored in overtime as the Seattle Thunderbirds shut out the Spokane Chiefs 1-0 in Western Hockey League play Tuesday. Meibrys Viloria Jersey . Sami Salo scored two goals as the Canucks overcame a hat-trick from Edmonton Oiler rookie sensation Ryan Nugent-Hopkins to win 4-3 in NHL action Saturday. Before the hockey town that Wayne Gretzky built hosted its first outdoor game at Dodger Stadium, The Great One made a rare Hollywood move by going on "Conan" to promote it. In an 11-minute interview on the late-night show with host Conan OBrien, Gretzky reflected on his trade from the Edmonton Oilers to the Los Angeles Kings, his guest appearance on "Saturday Night Live" and several aspects of his on-ice playing career. Beyond all his records and his place in hockey history, Gretzkys Hollywood persona wouldnt have been as pronounced if it were not for that trade 25 1/2 years ago. "It was hard for especially people in Edmonton because they werent just fans, they were friends of mine. A lot of the people that go to all the games, I knew from all the years of being in Edmonton," Gretzky said of the deal. "So it was difficult for everyone. But you look back at it now and everything happens for a reason and we love it here in L.A. and the NHL is thriving here and everyone seems to be doing OK." The Oilers won their fifth Stanley Cup in 1990 without Gretzky and made it to the final in 2006 before losing to the Carolina Hurricanes. The Kings made it to the final in 1993 with Gretzky before losing to the Montreal Canadiens, then won their first title in franchise history in 2012. Edmonton hasnt made the playoffs since 2006 and is still in a rebuilding stage. Just now is a new downtown arena under construction. But Gretzky was on "Conan" for the NHLs Stadium Series debut, which is Saturday between the Kings and the league-leading Anaheim Ducks. He called the game happening at Dodger Stadium a "real big dream." Even before this promotional tour, the "Great One" said he was an advocate of outdoor hockey in Los Angeles. "Id love to see an outdoor game in L.A. because we see the Winter Classic and the Heritage Classic with the snow and thats all wonderful. But a big part of our game, too, now and the success of the National Hockey League is California and places like that," Gretzky said before the Hockey Hall of Fame induction ceremony in November. "Its going to be wonderful to see people sitting at Dodger Stadium when its 65 degrees (F) and theyre sitting there in shorts and T-shirts and enjoying a National Hockey League game. I think its going to be wonderful for our sport." It should be roughly 19 C (66 F) when the puck drops around 6:30 Pacific time Saturday night. When Gretzky and the Kings faced the New York Rangers in an exhibition game in Las Vegas in 1991, temperatures ranged between 29 and 35 C. Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau said after a California heat wave last week he was looking forward to cooler temperatures for this game. "I think its going to be completely unique and its going to be tremendous playing in 60-degree weather outside under the stars," Boudreau said. "I think a lot of people will be real interested to see how that works." Ice technology has improved drastically in the 22-plus years since that Las Vegas game. As Gretzky acknowledged during his appearance on "Conan," so has the NHL, in general. OBrien asked Gretzky about a so-called unwritten rule that opponents wouldnt hit him, which the former Kings captain refuted. "I didnt get hit as much as people probably wanted me to get hit, especially on the opposing teams," Gretzky said. "I knew it was time to retire when I was playing my last year and people I was playing against before they wouuld hit me, they would scream my name or say, Hey, heads up or, Wayne, get out of the way, or Here we are.dddddddddddd I remember thinking, Wow, somethings not right about this." Gretzky then told a story about going to a game with his wife and two sons and sitting in the front row when one of them said to their mother: "Be really honest, did dad really play in this league?" When Gretzky did play in the NHL, he set career records with 894 goals, 1,963 assists and 2,857 points and single-season ones along the way, including 92 goals in 1981-82. OBrien asked if Gretzky thought "some punk kid" was going to come along and score 93 in a season. "Records are made to be broken," Gretzky said. "When I grew up my idol was Gordie Howe, and he couldnt have been any nicer, couldnt have been any better. He was just a really good man. When I broke his records, he was always the first guy there. "So if anybody ever breaks my records, Ill be the first guy to shake his hand. The players are good today, theres a lot of good players. Nevers a long time." Gretzky went on to say his record he believes will be the hardest to break is 50 goals in 39 games, "because 50 goals in 38 games is a lot of goals." "Yes," OBrien responded. "Thats pretty good. Well see." Gretzky said that being the smallest but never the fastest or toughest player at any point of his hockey-playing career made him consistent in his style. When OBrien brought up the topic of "Gretzkys Office," and his penchant to control the flow of play from behind the net, Gretzky credited Philadelphia Flyers Hall of Famer Bobby Clarke. "I had a coach when I was 14 years old that said: Go watch this guy Bobby Clarke play and watch how he plays. Hes not very big, hes smart, he passes the puck and he plays sort of from the corner and a little bit behind the net," Gretzky recalled. "So at the age of 14 I started watching him day in and day out. "He probably had the most influence on my career as far as learning how to play the game and the style of game that I played. I learned to play behind the net, and when I started doing that, it was so unique. Nobody had ever tried to defend that. And so I was able to really master it and become really good at it, and that was sort of my forte." Hockey sense, Gretzky said, was also a strength. Singing, not so much. OBrien mentioned that the first time he met Gretzky came in 1989 on the set of "Saturday Night Live." Although Gretzky originally turned down the appearance, his wife, Janet, accepted for him. On the show, Gretzky had to sing a song called "Waikiki Hockey," despite being, in his words, "tone deaf." "The funny part of the scene was they had this little piece of meat and I was sort of supposed to hit it," Gretzky said. "And I hit it right into a garbage can. I think everybody was shocked that I put it in the garbage can. It was just completely by accident." OBrien, who served as an extra in that scene 25 years ago, joked that "Everyone thought, He is the great one, he can fire meat at will." But that was acting, which Gretzky wasnt trying to be great at after going to Los Angeles. "Athletes come here and they want to be actors sometimes," Gretzky said. "But I never wanted to act, I wanted to be a hockey player." Follow (at)SWhyno on Twitter. Its a real big dream for me. hockeys come a long way. ' ' '

Engineering the Public Interest, 1922-1925: Technological Rationality and Institutionalization of American Broadcasting
Unformatted Document Text: 26 recommended "an affirmative action"—it did not mean the granting of the good portion of the wavelengths—for Umberger's proposal. The recognition of the need for educational broadcasting promoted experimentation where educational institutions used the broadcasting facilities of commercial stations. Such experimentation had often been attempted since mid-1924 to broadcast educational lectures and talks, but not course instruction for extension education, in cooperation with large commercial stations, such as WEAF and KDKA. However, educators would soon find the conflicts between commercial interests and educational information and censorship by commercial stations. 70 Until this time, educational broadcasters had been focusing on the their role as distributors of noncommercial information and adult, extension education. The public interest mainly meant the opposition of the commercial, and their identity was school educators, not public broadcasters. The majority of the listeners were fascinated with listening to popular music, jazz or concert music of a prestigious orchestra, rather than educational lectures. One of the major interests of listeners was clear reception of broadcasting channels. Despite public sentiments opposing monopoly, listeners, particularly those residing in remote areas and using cheap radio receivers, liked technological and program service from powerful corporate stations. City residents were concerned more about the problem of interference. Broadcasters in the Fourth Conference suggested the organization of broadcast listeners as "a clearing house for the local elimination of sources of interference." 71 In this climate, listeners welcomed the restriction of the number of stations in the hope that it would reduce interference caused by crowded stations. They were persuaded by Hoover's argument of the inevitability of licensing discrimination in the public interest. It was in fact true that a large portion of incumbent and pending broadcasters were people who wanted to "advertise themselves or to get a share of the profits to be derived from advertising others." Powerful big stations were not considered profit seekers; rather they were public broadcasters against those selfish broadcasters.

Q: Can I use non-aggregate columns with group by? You cannot (should not) put non-aggregates in the SELECT line of a GROUP BY query.
I would however like access the one of the non-aggregates associated with the max.  In plain english, I want a table with the oldest id of each kind.
CREATE TABLE stuff (
   id int,
   kind int,
   age int
);

This query gives me the information I'm after:
SELECT kind, MAX(age)
FROM stuff
GROUP BY kind;

But it's not in the most useful form.  I really want the id associated with each row so I can use it in later queries.
I'm looking for something like this:
SELECT id, kind, MAX(age)
FROM stuff
GROUP BY kind;

That outputs this:
SELECT stuff.*
FROM
   stuff,
   ( SELECT kind, MAX(age)
     FROM stuff
     GROUP BY kind) maxes
WHERE
   stuff.kind = maxes.kind AND
   stuff.age = maxes.age

It really seems like there should be a way to get this information without needing to join.  I just need the SQL engine to remember the other columns when it's calculating the max.

A:
You cannot (should not) put non-aggregates in the SELECT line of a GROUP BY query.

You can, and have to, define what you are grouping by for the aggregate function to return the correct result.
MySQL (and SQLite) decided in their infinite wisdom that they would go against spec, and allow queries to accept GROUP BY clauses missing columns quoted in the SELECT - it effectively makes these queries not portable.

It really seems like there should be a way to get this information without needing to join.

Without access to the analytic/ranking/windowing functions that MySQL doesn't support, the self join to a derived table/inline view is the most portable means of getting the result you desire.

A: I think it's tempting indeed to ask the system to solve the problem in one pass rather than having to do the job twice (find the max, and the find the corresponding id). You can do using CONCAT (as suggested in Naktibalda refered article), not sure that would be more effeciant
SELECT MAX( CONCAT( LPAD(age, 10, '0'), '-', id)
FROM STUFF1
GROUP BY kind;

Should work, you have to split the answer to get the age and the id.
(That's really ugly though)

A: In recent databases you can use sum() over (parition by ...) to solve this problem:
select id, kind, age as max_age from (
  select id, kind, age, max(age) over (partition by kind) as mage
    from table)
where age = mage

This can then be single pass

A: PostgesSQL's DISTINCT ON will be useful here.
SELECT DISTINCT ON (kind) kind, id, age
FROM stuff
ORDER BY kind, age DESC;

This groups by kind and returns the first row in the ordered format. As we have ordered by age in descending order, we will get the row with max age for kind.
P.S. columns in DISTINCT ON should appear first in order by

A: You can't get the Id of the row that MAX found, because there might not be only one id with the maximum age.

A: You have to have a join because the aggregate function max retrieves many rows and chooses the max.
So you need a join to choose the one that the agregate function has found.
To put it a different way how would you expect the query to behave if you replaced max with sum?
An inner join might be more efficient than your sub query though.

Q: WPF Modal dialog dataBindings I have a PropertyGrid which is used in a side panel of my application, and the databindings for this PropertyGrid are setup in XAML.  I would like to use this same PropertyGrid in a Modal dialog box, but when I do all changes made in the dialog box immediately affect the underlying properties.   Is there an easy way to prevent the databindings from affecting the source properties until an accept button is pressed?  Or is there some other way to accomplish this?  I am trying to not duplicate the XAML for the PropertyGrid which is what using UpdateSourceTrigger=Explicit would require.

A: You can set UpdateSourceTrigger=Explicit on the bindings in question, so they won't propagate immediately. Then, when you press the accept button, wire it up to a command which calls textBox1.GetBindingExpression(TextBox.Text).UpdateSource() or similar for each piece of data you want to send back to the ViewModel.

NEW YORK (AP) - Knicks rookie Kevin Knox left New York's game against Boston after an apparent left ankle injury in the first quarter.
Knox was driving for a layup on a fast break Saturday when his ankle appeared to roll badly as he was fouled by Terry Rozier III. Knox stayed on the court briefly, appearing in pain, then was carried off by a pair of teammates.
Because Knox wasn't able to shoot the free throws, he was, by rule, forced to miss the remainder of the game.
The No. 9 pick in the draft was coming off a strong performance Friday in a loss at Brooklyn, scoring 17 points on 7-for-14 shooting.

Q: multi_array_view assignment without deep copy? How can I reassign a boost multi_array_view to point to a different part of a multi_array? I don't want a deep copy.
boost::multi_array<int, 2> a(...);
array_view b = a[indices[index_range(0, 5)][index_range()]];
array_view c = a[indices[index_range(0, 10)][index_range()]];
b = c; // don't work

Boost source:
template <typename ConstMultiArray>
multi_array_ref& operator=(const ConstMultiArray& other) {
    function_requires<
      multi_array_concepts::
      ConstMultiArrayConcept<ConstMultiArray,NumDims> >();

    // make sure the dimensions agree
    BOOST_ASSERT(other.num_dimensions() == this->num_dimensions());
    BOOST_ASSERT(std::equal(other.shape(),other.shape()+this->num_dimensions(),
                            this->shape()));
    // iterator-based copy
    std::copy(other.begin(),other.end(),this->begin());
    return *this;
}

Update: I ended up changing the approach in my program to keep a reference to the indices object created by boost::indices[...]. Then I can use that object to create a new array_view at any time.

A: Looks like multi_array_ref models a C++ reference closely:

*

*it's not re-seatable

*it's semantically an alias for the object it is "bound to"

Somewhat surprisingly, though, the same appears not to be the case for const_multi_array_ref. Note these documentation quotes:

*

*Constructors and Assignment
All of the non-const array types in this library provide assignment operatorsoperator=(). Each of the array types multi_array, multi_array_ref, subarray, and array_view can be assigned from any of the others, so long as their shapes match. The const variants, const_multi_array_ref, const_subarray, and const_array_view, can be the source of a copy to an array with matching shape. Assignment results in a deep (element by element) copy of the data contained within an array.

This talks about assigning to a mutable array (view).
However:

*

*const_multi_array_ref(const const_multi_array_ref& x);
Effects. This constructs a shallow copy of x.

Approaches
Perhaps you can use const_multi_array_ref instead.
Otherwise you should probably look to "break" the bind of un-reseatable references in exactly the same way we do it for C++ references: std::reference_wrapper<> or similar indirection.

The future is here and it has a name: the Thing-O-Matic. The truth is, of course, once you get over how cool it is to be able to print real-world objects in three dimensions using little more than a PC, some inexpensive raw plastic and what looks like a dialysis machine made from Tinkertoy, you quickly realize you have no real need to ever print real-world objects in three dimensions. But the fact that MakerBot Industries has taken a process that used to require a machine worth $10,000 or more and put it within reach of mere mortals for the paltry sum of $1,225 USD, is nonetheless remarkable and could have a profound effect on the next generation of engineers who – no longer limited by parts they buy from retailers – can pretty much build anything they can dream up inside a CAD program. So long as they can limit their dreams to 996mm x 108mm x 115 mm – that being the width, length and height maximums of the Thing-o-Matic's build area. I say let the printing begin, and if anyone can fashion me a new rotor for my Air Hogs Sky Patrol, I would be grateful.
Design your replacement part and I'll print it for you on my MakerBot, gratis.

[...] I was intrigued and a bit amused the other day when Mayor Greg Ballard mentioned something about a Chinatown to a local business leader, after a news conference on the city's 2012 Super Bowl bid.
A colleague and I quickly asked the new mayor about the Chinatown talk. Ballard smiled and told us -- perhaps to the horror of his press secretary -- about his desire to create a Chinatown somewhere on the Near Southside.
"You go around the world -- San Francisco or London -- and Chinatowns are some of the best places," he said. "It's just fun and cultural, and it would make the Chinese community feel welcome in the city."
for one thing, as tully notes, you don't just build a chinatown—though that might be a cool feature for the next sim city game. chinese immigrants build chinatowns by immigrating to a city and taking over a neighborhood en masse. this isn't field of dreams; you can't just build a chinatown and expect a bunch of chinese people to suddenly show up and turn it into a thriving cultural hotspot.
i live on the northwest side. these days there are a lot of mexican restaurants in my neighborhood. the closest one, which closes down and comes back with a new name every three months, didn't even have english on the menu in its last incarnation. and if you go a few miles south of here, you'll find yourself in a burgeoning little mexico. virago & i think that's great, because we love real mexican food, and if they don't serve menudo (and maybe pozole) on weekends then it's not real mexican food.
that's how you build an ethnic community: with a steady stream of new immigrants over the course of a decade or two. but a lot of hoosiers don't feel the way i do. in fact, just yesterday, house republicans stormed out, enraged that they wouldn't be allowed to "strengthen" the immigration to sufficiently punish undocumented immigrants (much to the horror of the bill's sponsor, who had been insisting his bill wasn't racist). maybe i'm just cynical, but i can't see them being much happier about a similar wave of chinese immigrants, which would be a requirement for creating a viable chinatown.
last week, someone started an angry pro-administration blog called ballard rules. this week, it's already gone, prompting speculation at about why it died so quickly and who was behind it in the first place.
one commenter suggested that it might be written by the people behind another angry right-wing blog, frugal hoosiers, noting that the "email me" link on the blog had pointed to a frugal hoosiers email address.
so i decided to follow up by checking the google cache—always handy when a blog gets deleted. lo and behold, i discovered that not only was this true, but the blog had been running on frugal hoosiers's typepad installation, where it is still visible, right down to the attacks on a two-month old baby. i figured i should take a screenshot for posterity, in case they take down that version, too.
While introducing Gov. Mitch Daniels at a Whitley County Lincoln Day dinner, he told a disparaging joke about Democratic House Speaker Pat Bauer.
Bauer is used to being made fun of – his height, his hair – but Bell told a fictional story about him and some GOP colleagues who were driving along Interstate 69 when they came across an overturned bus on the side of the road labeled "House Democrats."
The joke continued with a local farmer telling the Republicans that it was a terrible tragedy with many fatalities.
"Were there no survivors?" asked the reps, to which the farmer replied that Bauer said he was alive "but you know how he lies" so he was buried anyway.
apparently the joke didn't go over very well, probably because it's poorly constructed. the meat of the joke comes from all those dead liberals; trying to twist it around to be about speaker bauer being a liar destroys the dramatic tension. besides, bell's audience probably thinks all democrats are liars, so singling out the speaker makes no sense.
"how can you tell? they're all brain-dead anyway!"
"nope. i guess that proves seatbelt laws don't work!"
"i didn't check. i don't believe in busing."
"i didn't check. i don't believe in public transit."
"yeah, but we took 'em behind the barn and shot 'em, 'cuz i recoken their lives weren't worth living like that." "you mean, because they're horribly disfigured?" "no, i mean because they're democrats."
Q: what do you call a busload of dead democrats?
the full video of mayor ballard's house testimony is up, and reports are that it's even more embarrassing than i thought.
also, today news got out that two weeks ago, ballard's press secretary sent out a memo demanding that nobody in the administration correspond with WTLC. this is not only shockingly childish and unprofessional, but quite possibly illegal.
and republican congressional candidate and state rep jon elrod was caught on tape "writing campaign letters while on the floor of the House and handing them to a legislative employee to mail". while it appears that elrod technically broke no laws himself, the employee who mailed the letters did break house rules, and the whole situation was awkward enough that minority leader bosma had to sit the two down and give them a "stern talk".
the writers strike is over! word of a tentative deal has been circulating for about a week, but the new contract wasn't official until WGA members voted for it, which they did yesterday. the writers achieved some major gains—getting residuals for content on the internet and doubling the residuals they receive from DVDs—but didn't get everything they wanted. the cost of the strike was often steep, for both sides, but overall this was a successful strike for hollywood writers.
He told lawmakers that there's "fluff" in the Marion County budget. But he had few answers for them on where he would cut.
"Everything is on the table," he said, but repeatedly fended off questions by saying he had only been in office five weeks.
State Rep. Win Moses, D-Fort Wayne and a former mayor, said that answer wasn't good enough, and pressed for more details.
Asked if police would be laid off, Ballard said no. Asked if firefighters would be cut, Ballard said "I can't say. I just don't know. You're asking me questions that I don't know."
Moses fired back: "I'm asking questions that you must know."
And, he added, "I know you don't mean everything you're saying."
Ballard couldn't say everything was on the table, he said, and then say that police wouldn't be cut and that the possibility of raising local income taxes to pay for the property tax relief was not a viable option in Marion County.
so there's fluff in the budget, but he can't identify it (other than that he wants to start buying priuses). everything's on the table... except for the stuff that isn't. and that whole "it's my first day" excuse only goes so far—not to mention that you can't apply it selectively. the "newbie dodge", as you could call it, is similar to the "incompetence dodge" in that it effectively invalidates everything you do or say. if you haven't been around long enough to know any answers, then there's no reason to listen to you. you can't claim to be a voice of authority and simultaneously say you don't know what's going on because you just got here. it does not compute. stop wasting everyone's time and come back when you know something.
then again, what else could he have said? other mayors and county officials from the rest of the state know that the proposed caps will seriously dig into their budgets and force them to either raise taxes or make major cuts in services. but mayor ballard campaigned on a platform of "how dare mayor peterson raise our taxes" and "i'll cut the budget a whole bunch without major service cuts", so there wasn't much he could do other than ask for a handout.
the indy star has an article today about friend-of-the-site bil browning, who, with the help of others, has revamped the old bilerico blog into a national blog that's grown so successful that he can now live off its income.
to be honest, i sometimes miss the old bilerico. as a hoosier, i felt i could relate to it more than i can the current version, and there are only a handful of hoosier-oriented blogs worth reading, as opposed to a bazillion national political blogs out there. (plus, let's be frank, they used to link me on the blogroll but no longer do; that's their prerogative.) but supporting yourself through your blog is many a blogger's dream, and extremely difficult to achieve—and i do like some of the new features and contributors (though not all). so clearly bil's been doing something right.
the indy star's matt tully has a good column today about how indiana's democratic delegates will be divvied up, if indiana's primary turns out to mean something for a change, which is looking increasingly likely. then he finishes the column with a corny pun that made me crumple up my face as if struck by a pungent odor. oh well; most of it is good.
Jon Elrod was asked about hiring 1 to 1 Media, the marketing company connected with Eric Miller's Advance America. Elrod said his campaign hired the company and he didn't know who was hired. He also said his website is built and he has no plans to change it. He mentioned he felt no need to speak out publicly on this because his record supporting the hate crimes bill and his stance against SJR7 speaks for itself.
not a particularly encouraging response. he didn't know who was designing and hosting his site, and apparently doesn't care. he might disagree with eric miller and his cronies on these two issues, but he doesn't mind giving them money—which he presumably continues to do, as his domain remains registered to main-1-media, which suggests that they are now hosting the site in addition to having designed it.
as every other blog aside from this one has already mentioned, yesterday was super tuesday, when about half the US holds its primary elections. on the democratic side, the big news is... still no clear frontrunner. clinton and obama are still quite close in the race for delegates. it could go all the way to the convention, which would be exciting if a bit crazy.
but more specifically, this means that indiana's near-last-in-the-country presidential primary might actually mean something! hoosier voters might get an actual chance to go into the booth on may 6th and cast a real, meaningful vote for the democratic nominee. that hasn't happened in my memory, if in my lifetime.
this might force me to choose between clinton and obama. i'd be happy to vote for either of them, as either would be a billion times better than the republican frontrunner, john mccain, and a bazillion times better than our current president—not to mention that either will put an end to the 200 years of white dudes holding the office. if i had to pick today, i'd probably pick obama: he's more the "inspirational" candidate while hillary is a more "practical" candidate, and i gotta go with inspiration over pragmatism. but i don't have to pick today.
as for mccain wrapping up the republican nomination, it's a bit of a surprise. over the past eight years he's sold out everything people used to like him for, and the conventional wisdom a few months ago was that his campaign was dead. but the field of republican candidates is such a pack of jokers that i guess mccain doesn't look like as a big a loser as the rest. even the right-wing pundits hate him now, with even ann coulter saying she'd rather support hillary.
i wonder whether anyone will show up on february 10 to protest at the local scientology mission in south indianapolis (6451 rockville rd)?
then i have good news and bad news.
the good news is that i have an all-new, all-different design that you might prefer! the bad news is that you might like the new design even less.
i'd been thinking of redesigning the blog for awhile, and decided to finally do so to coincide with the impending release of wack cylinders, my first solo album since 2004. believe it or not, wack cylinders will be my first release to feature databent album artwork, so to commemorate the event, the blog now features not one but five databent backgrounds!

Choosing the right router for us can be quite difficult and tricky at times. For example, we have carefully browsed through the Internet trying to get one router that suits our needs and preferences the most, yet, there are more than just one choice, and you are unable to choose between the available options because all of them seem to be very, very identical. This may be your concern in choosing between TP-Link Archer C7 and TP-Link Archer C8. While the looks of the two are certainly very different, they come with similar offers. Yet, TP-Link Archer C8 is a little bit pricier than TP-Link Archer C7. Which is the router that you should get?
TP-Link Archer C7 and TP-Link Archer C8 are very distinctive. The C7 is entirely black, equipped with green indicator lights. There are three adjustable and detachable external antennas. At the contrast, the C8 is colored in white, with blue indicator lights. There are also three external antennas. However, it also has a foot-stand, so it is something that seems to prefer to be placed on a table or other flat surface.
Nevertheless, in terms of wireless performance, the two products are very identical with each other. They are both dual-band routers, which means that each of them has a single 2.4 GHz and a single 5 GHz wireless signal channels. Also, they each also offer a total bandwidth of 1750 Mbps, which is divided into 450 Mbps for the 2.4 GHz signal and 1300 Mbps for the 5 GHz signal.
Things are a little bit different if we talk about the wired performance now. TP-Link Archer C7 comes with one LAN and four WAN Ethernet ports, plus two USB 2.0 ports. On the other hand, TP-Link Archer C8 also features a similar configuration – except that it has one USB 3.0 port in place of one of the two USB ports. The upgrade may appear trivial, but is actually quite useful, especially if you plan to stick a network-attached storage via the USB port. This is because USB 3.0 is significantly faster than USB 2.0.
If you are fine with USB 2.0, then you can choose TP-Link Archer C7 for the fullest bang from the bucks. However, for most people, TP-Link Archer C8 should be the way to go, as the USB 3.0 port can be a huge value that shouldn't be missed.

Electrochromic (EC) film is a fairly commonly used material and is similar in technology to electrochromic glass.
Electrochromicology is a science that involves coloration of materials such opaque or transparent film material to affect change.
It's interesting to note that film material was originally composed of vegetable, mineral and animal ingredients. This is a clue to how electrochromic films are processed.
However when film was originally invented, it was made from cellulose nitrate. Today film is made from either a cellulose acetate or polyester base and has a coating of "light sensitive" minerals, chiefly silver salts.
The Link Between EC Film and EC Glass
Electrochromic film is intended to be heat and light-sensitive so that it is more useful to a wider range of products as an EC device. There is a distinct link between electrochromic film and electrochromic glass, both are an electrochromic material but the film thickness and flexibility is much different than that of EC glass.
The process is relatively simple to understand. To set up a distributable electric field, voltage is applied between transparent electrical conductors in the electrochromic layer- mostly using an electrolyte or lithium ions to change the transmittance spectra of the electrochromic films.
Imagine the distributable electric field as an orbit with invisible positive and negative lines that can be equal. So, you insert an electrical plug into an outlet and it is connected to the volts that activate an electrical charge.
This is similar to what electrochromic film does to glass materials. Light changes according to volts to make electrochromic film sensitive to light, just like in an electrochromic window. In an electrochromic device, electrical volts with lithium ions and electrons create a field of sensitivity that disperses light in a layer.
The History of Electrochromic Film
The early history of electrochromic film begins with the discovery of electrochromism when a dye maker, Johann Jacob Diesbach, in 1703 discovered in the process of making paints for artists, he accidentally mixed an ingredient in cochineal, used to make red dyes, with potash, which is an alkali and saw that it changed to blue. It was known as Prussian blue. This was electrochemical oxidation, a chemical and optical property that allows for the fast switching speed of the colored state of a material.
That mishap created the color that changed the world and for many artists, like Vincent Van Gogh whose painting, "Starry Night" typifies the use of this extraordinary color find.
From that point on combining tungsten oxide and an alkali led to the ability to color change light on paper, glass and other materials through applied voltage in a substrate. Thus, through the use of ions and electrical volts the EC process was established.
Enter Tungsten Oxide Film
When experiments were carried out on electrical properties of tungsten electrodes, the result was the forming of an oxide film. It's easy to see why tungsten oxide film plays a role in electrochromic performance in smart glass and EC film.
As with LCD technology, EC technology requires liquid crystals and an ion storage layer, and are also a significant part of the optical property of the electrochromic layer of thin film.
Smart glass resembles a multi layer sandwich. The outer layers can be glass, paper or metal while the inner layers are EC film. Glass electrodes play an important role in chemical analyses and chemical studies in labs and research and development of new technology such as EC film.
A glass electrode is an ion selective sensoring component that detects changes in light or heat. Through the electrode transmission process, only ions are introduced into a liquid crystal structure of a crystalline member or film.
The Scientific Process
For most of us there are two ways to view EC film: First as a highly scientific process and secondly, as a more generic, practicable process that is as useful as it is convenient in generic applications.
A scientific process is not so very different than a baking recipe. It has ingredients as components intended to produce a desired result and a protocol (directions) that confirm analytical findings. Thus the EC scientific film process requires three main ingredients that include:
. Chemicals such as tungsten oxide
. Electrical stimulants such as electrodes and ions
. A reactive substance or material such as glass, paper, polymer or metal
Most people are more familiar with the generic process of EC film because of its usefulness and convenience. Instead of fabric shades or curtains on windows that darken a room, windows with EC film do it automatically by sensing changes to varying degrees of light in the entire room. Through transmittance of core electrochromic properties to glass material, it is possible to maintain and regulate sunlight.
Uses of EC Film
Windows and doors are only one use of EC film. Existing windows and doors are replaced with smart glass and in new homes and buildings these are pre-installed with EC film on glass windows and doors at time of manufacture and before these structures are sold.
However, there is the option of stick on EC film that adds a thin film to existing the surfaces of windows and doors. In addition to glass material that regulates light, EC film also helps retain heat. This is a valuable energy saving feature that reduces energy costs.
One necessity for high heat control is graphite. Graphite is used to make a graphite electrode as a conductor of electricity when free electrons such as those found in an electrochromic device, are present. A graphite electrode is considered to be a semi-metal by the solar energy industry.
In the solar energy industry, solar cells may be made of graphite and titanium oxide. Using the multiple layer sandwich example, a solar panel has an aluminum frame beneath which is a layer of tempered glass that protect solar cells. encapsulant material and a junction box.
When solar panels are treated with EC film as a transparent conductor of renewable energy, the sun does the job of emitting electromagnetic radiation also referred to as solar radiation.
Through the use of electrochromic technology, solar radiation is captured by tempered glass coated with EC film. Each nanoparticle in solar cells store solar radiation as detected and collected by the EC film on the glass layer of the solar panel.
In this process, EC film serves as a magnetic semiconductor of heat and light.
EC Film of the Future
When it comes to electrochromic film, it's easy to imagine how this technology will continue to evolve long into the future. Once you envision the idea of adding film that senses changes to sunlight and heat, the possibilities for future use are endless. These possibilities include:
. Time and temperature applications
. EC pixels for digitizing
. Multispectral energy modulation
. Smart heating thermostats
. Cooking and baking equipment
. Rear view mirrors in vehicles with light sensors
. Heavy duty industrial equipment
. Spectroscopy
. Engineering equipment such as probes and micromanometers
. Virtual reality equipment
. Medical equipment
. Reflective overlays for sensitive sheeting for municipal safety devices
. Advanced lighting patterns for traffic
And That's That
Though electrochromic technology may seem complex to the average individual when all of the components are taken into consideration the realistic view is quite simple. A technology that changes every day life is always readily accepted and soon becomes a utilitarian expectation.
If we expect our sunglasses to adapt to changes to make our vision more precise and less compromised, why not expect the same of solar panels and the household and business equipment we rely on to make work less difficult?
Advanced applications of EC film will inevitably become more available for home and business use. In fact, in years to come, it may be possible that curtains will be obsolete when heat and light-absorbing film is applied to windows. Insulation materials would also be a thing of the past. If you can dream it, it can be done.

From Animal Lovers to Friends to Rescue Partners
Meet the Directors of Loving Touch, Inc.  an All Volunteer,
Non-Profit, 501 (c) 3 organization founded in February 2000
We rescued our very first cat, Hobo, a cat we believe was left behind when a neighbor moved, shortly after we (Doreen and Paul) were married in 1987. Our love for animals was much too strong to stop at just one cat even though we were living paycheck to paycheck. Taking down information from lost pet flyers, or trying to help find a lost pet, was just something that came natural to us.
Our next rescue was a litter of newborn kittens that Paul found under a pile of debris at a construction site. I can still remember when Paul called to tell me that he was bringing home 7 kittens that needed to be bottle fed. So we had to find out what to do and fast. Wow, was that fun! But those round the clock feedings were a killer, especially when some of the kittens looked identical. We knew we had to have a system. As they grew, their play area expanded until they had full run of their own room. Needless to say, we became cat experts very quickly.
So how about dogs? As rescue people know, these animals have a way of finding you, whether you're looking or not. We weren't really looking when Lucky found us. Paul saved him on the Long Island Expressway in the middle of two way traffic. The crowd applauded when Lucky (who kept jumping the divider) was lured by a can of cat food and finally lassoed back into Paul's truck. Little did we know that we were headed for our life's mission, animal rescue. You can read more about our rescued pets by going to Doreen & Paul's Rescues.
In 1991 we met a woman that shared our passion for animals. She was starting a rescue group and asked if we would like to be part of it. We were soon board members of a non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization called S.A.V.E. (Silent Animal Voices Echo). We were active members for 8 years, doing everything from helping with fundraisers, adoption events, raffles, yard sales, luncheons and more. Our new lifestyle was hectic but very rewarding. Doreen, Paul & Zulma - SAVE
In 1995, while working in Flushing, a large number of cats were practically multiplying right in front of me. I first noticed them in the parking garage, then outside the garage and finally all along Barclay Avenue in a row of homes. The cats were not spayed or neutered and their caretaker was an elderly woman who could barely care for herself. This was the start of The Flushing Cats Rescue.
In 1996, Zulma joined the group as a volunteer. We began working closely together and became very close friends. Growing up in the South Bronx made her aware of the many dogs and cats living in packs on the street. There were kind people in the area that fed them daily but never took them for medical care or gave any of them a home. Her concern for these animals lead her to doing her own rescue work which involved daily feedings and removing injured animals from the street in order to provide proper vet care. This was the start of The Bronx Dogs Project.
Together, we compared notes about our rescue efforts and helped each other as needed. Both projects were very dear to us but too much for a small organization to handle. We had no choice but to do a lot of it on our own and at our own expense. After many years and many rescues the thought of branching out to start another group to solely work with these two projects entered our mind. It was not until the summer of 1999 and the rescue of our beloved mascot Duchess that we KNEW the need for another group was imperative. And so....... Loving Touch was born in February 2000.
Here we are working on our first mailing.
Our friend Angel helped stuff envelopes.


Vredo will be attending the Salon de l'herbe 2019 in Poussay on the 5th and 6th of June 2019. You are more than welcome to visit us at our stand. We would like to show you our novelties which are currently available in the market. Klick on the logo for more information about the exhibition.

Does Propecia Interact With Other Medications
Water molecules are small pregabalin epilepsy monotherapy and seemingly simple but nonetheless exhibit rather complex properties, many of which remain poorly understood. In order to make a rubber self-healable, the team needed to make the bonds connecting the polymers reversible, so that the bonds could antabuse other med break and reform. But he adds that it is impossible to say whether the remains were butchered as part of some symbolic act, or whether the butchering was carried out simply for food. Food restriction and regular exercise are the two main cost-effective strategies to prevent and treat obesity; however the cymbalta and other drug interactions condition is often associated with a sedentary lifestyle and bad eating habits, such as snacking and binge eating. The study represents the completion does propecia interact with other medications of two years of work looking at 150 wheat varieties, using a genome-wide association study to analyse 31 different traits. After adjusting for potential confounders, including parental age, the risk of ID after exposure to antidepressant medication was not statistically significant in both the full-population sample and in the sub-sample of women with a history of depression. For cases requiring surgery, standard practice is to administer some electrical stimulation during the surgery to aid recovery. In a study published in the journal Metabolomics , neurologist Zaeem Siddiqi, graduate student Derrick Blackmore and their team used metabolic analysis of serum (blood with all cells removed) to find a unique pattern of metabolites -- products of the body's metabolic processes such as amino acids, vitamins or antioxidants -- that is specific to myasthenia gravis. Changes in the sources of nitrogen and the composition of the phytoplankton community are more pregabalin and other drugs likely to account for the differences seen in the isotope data, Huckstadt said. " Making production safer While wastewater injection can cause earthquakes, all major oil and gas production creates a large amount of wastewater that needs to be disposed of, and injection is the method the industry uses. " In examining the published works, McNamara and Bezanson were most surprised to find that there were 31 primate habitat countries where no research was being conducted, including Guatemala, Trinidad, Zimbabwe, Sudan, Afghanistan and Singapore.

Ready for a change, Balboa Island resident quits corporate life and opens eclectic gallery
By John B. Nez on	 December 24, 2021 Textile fabric
Instead of hopping on the freeway every morning, Kim Rossall, a resident of Balboa Island, now drives her golf cart to work on Agate Avenue in her hometown.
Rossall decided it was time to take a step back from her pressured career in the corporate world when she began the process of opening her Balboa Island gallery a few months ago.
She had quit her job in 2020 after working in the pharmaceutical industry as a senior director of Global Life Science.
"It was all about numbers and exact details, no margin for error," said Rossall, who moved to Balboa Island in 1986. "I was ready for a shift towards less structured, more creative, not dark. and white."
The gallery has taken on a unique style; you won't find traditional oil or watercolor paintings, but rather an eclectic collection of paintings, collages, textile art, stained glass and jewelry.

Among the pieces of the exhibiting artist-designer, Dyan Rogers of Carlsbad is his unique jewelry created from precious stones, silver, semi-precious stones and earthly elements like feathers.
However, Rogers' biggest seller is his one-piece textile art called his "Heart of Hope" scarf.
"It looks like a lariat," Rogers said. "I tear the silk fabric and cut it into pieces 4 or 5 inches long and tie it to a cotton cord, which forms a scarf." Ten percent of its profits go to the Sheepfold Domestic Violence Shelter for women emerging from desperate situations and learning skills that enable them to move on to a safe and independent life.
"I use an error-free loom called Saori Loom which has a motto, 'everything has its own beauty' which suits my style because I'm intuitive and don't like to follow patterns."
The Balboa Island Gallery exhibits original paintings by Kathy Kehoe Bambeck which were incorporated into puzzles.
Being local, Kathy Kehoe Bambeck believed that the Balboa Island Gallery would provide a natural setting for her work. Bambeck, who works from his home studio on the Balboa Peninsula, is also endearingly referred to as the "puzzler" by Rossall.
"I've been doing art since I was 5," Bambeck said. "It's all I ever wanted to do." She explained that because she has always been attentive to detail and focused, her parents wanted her to become a brain surgeon.
About six years ago, Bambeck discovered licensing, which led her to rent out his images for products for commercial use. She contracted with Bits & Pieces, a huge online puzzle company.
"Because puzzles became so popular, I couldn't paint fast enough," Bambeck said. "Images do well on products and a big side of art is the puzzle industry, which has exploded during the pandemic. "
Since people are often fascinated with where these products – or in this case, puzzle images – come from, Bambeck thought it would be good to exhibit her original artwork, which she didn't has never done before.
Kathleen Carrillo, who received a master's degree in painting and printmaking from the University of Oklahoma, has painted for decades and divides her time between Carlsbad and Puerto Vallarta, which she describes as a bohemian lifestyle on her website .
Kathleen Carrillo's painting of the three divas is on display in the new Balboa Island gallery at 121 Agate Avenue. Balboa Island.
"I am very excited to be part of a new company," Carrillo said. "The art gallery is part of a great community and will fill a need for art and prints for homes."
Rossall is hosting an open house on January 15-16, where Bambeck and Carrillo will be available to meet participants and give demonstrations.
Rossall is all about freedom of expression, saying "I take advantage of the creativity and the ability to reinvent the space every week, adding new artists and new products."
During the open day, Carrillo will give a talk and demonstrate his approach to figurative abstract and collage, and explain the availability of his work and the ordering process for ordered pieces.
Bambeck in turn will demonstrate and talk about the medium she uses in her original painting of acrylic, wash and ink.
Kim Rossall recently opened the Balboa Island Gallery at 121 Agate Ave., Balboa Island.
