"A new centre is opening this month in Bern to celebrate Paul Klee (1879-1940), one of the greats in the pantheon of modern art.
Klee described himself as "intangible" - a perhaps fitting epithet for a man who was seen at times as both bourgeois and bohemian, and who went down in history as a Swiss artist, even though he was German.
Klee was born and died in Switzerland, but his formative years were spent in Germany, where he became famous as an artist of the avantgarde."

Being teased by
calling supperclass constructors
, I coinsidently learned that instead of foobar = foo ? foo : bar; I could write foobar = foo || bar; and I found the blog of Tod Ditchendorf with a goody of
how to implement threading in Mocha
:
new java.lang.Thread(new java.lang.Runnable() {
run: function() {
while (notYetDone) {
doSomething();
java.lang.Thread.yield();
}
}
}).start();

What is Mocha?
Mocha is the original project name of the very
popular scripting language generally known as
Javascript
and
standardized as
Ecmascript
ECMA-262/ISO-16262.
We use the term Mocha to refer to the usage of Ecmascript
outside of the scope generally
attributed to Javascript
, integrating both client-side and server-side
programming with other technologies such as XML and Java. It
is an
extremely rich, powerful
and flexible programming language
and has a large, highly developed
syntax, a huge library of standard methods (functions) and built-in
capabilities to create complex, object-oriented data structures and
methods.
Mocha
also is a port in Yemen, historically famous as
the major source for "arabica" coffee beans. Due to its aromatic
undertones of chocolate, the term Mocha also often describes a blend of
coffee and chocolate when referring to a beverage or a flavor of ice
cream :-)
What is OpenMocha?
OpenMocha
is an Internet and Website application development framework for Mocha
developers. OpenMocha is an open source project that integrates various
Mocha related open source components around a core based on the Helma
application server.
In the OpenMocha framework, solutions are defined by collections of
Mocha Objects
,
which handle the various types of standard client-server requests.
These collections are dynamically inherited from the hierarchical tree
of parents for the requested page. The Mocha Objects are application
segments containing scripts and/or skins, separating logic and design.
Requests are processed by running through the appropriate collection of
Mocha Objects for the requested URL hierarchy and executing them
relative to the requested page.
The OpenMocha framework is made up of several related projects.
Mochascript
is an abstraction library extending both client-side and server-side Javascript environments. The
Mocha Object Engine
is the layer that implements the Mocha Objects and collections and
defines the layer of the framework that is itself implemented in
Javascript. The
Helma Object Publisher
serves as the application server for the Mocha Object Engine, providing
an embedded XML database and automatic mapping of objects to relational
databases such as MySQL,
PostgreSQL
or Oracle, integrating the
Rhino Javascript Engine
with the other
Java
components and providing the Mocha environment with access to
Java packages
. The
Jetty Java HTTP Server
provides Web,
XML-RPC
and
AJP13
services, while the
James Java Enterprise Mail Server
provides SMTP, POP3 and NNTP services. The OpenMocha framework also intregrates the
Lucene Search Engine
for powerful Java-based text indexing.

Clean, crisp and
Googley
Dave Winer says: "Now, the big question, when will a new aggressive startup with a laser-like focus on search come along
to do to Google what they did to everyone else
? That's obvious now, isn't it?" ...and I agree, even if Google may not make the mistake of forcing this "innovation" on everyone by default.

Do it, already!
Naville told swissinfo
: "In recent years, Switzerland’s strong focus on Europe has been detrimental to its relationship with the US. The last time a [Swiss cabinet minister] was received at the White House was in the 1980s."
"After 15 years of European focus, the moment is now right to place the economic relationship between the US and Switzerland on a solid contractual basis."
He said the "window of opportunity" for a deal was limited, as the Trade Promotion Authority of President George Bush – under which he can send legislation to Congress on a "take-it-or-leave-it" basis – will expire on June 1, 2007.
The effective deadline is earlier – new trade initiatives will be difficult to launch after the US mid-term elections in November 2006.
Naville added: "Switzerland must make the first moves itself. Anything the Americans say can be interpreted as generic encouragement, but the ball is in the Swiss court."
