Any recommendations on good sites/resources on programming with the Cocos2d-iPhone game engine?
What worked for you? What is the canonical place for all things Cocos2d? Any sites you recommend? Best practices? Blogs?
Much appreciated

I have used those sites and have also found Ray Wenderlich's tutorials very useful.
http://www.raywenderlich.com/352/how-to-make-a-simple-iphone-game-with-cocos2d-tutorial
Also there are several references available here too:
http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/wiki/doku.php/resources:iphone_recommended_reading
Happy coding! B)
ADDITION:
I found these two questions have many great resources too:
https://gamedev.stackexchange.com/q/2326/1037
https://gamedev.stackexchange.com/q/20/1037

I've found monitoring #cocos2d on Twitter can sometimes turn up some interesting articles. Cocos2D blog is usually pretty active and points out available tutorials once and a while like the following...
http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/archives/582
Take a look through their wiki as there is a bunch of useful articles there as well...
http://www.cocos2d-iphone.org/wiki/doku.php/

Cocos2d forums worked for most of my issues. riq, the author of Cocos is there answering many questions.

I have a Cocos2d Resources page that i keep updating as i find new material and learn more:
http://www.gaminghorror.net/cocos2d-iphone-resources/
I'm sharing the generally re-usable parts of my source code together with cleaned up and bugfixed modifications or rewrites of other's code (credits given) as well as any link that i've used or find useful for cocos2d developers. I don't stop at cocos2d though, i also post links to solutions for issues every iPhone developer will come across sooner or later.

Does anyone know where to find a seed project written in Swift that I can use for learning?
So far, I have not been successful building or deploying any swift projects.
Any help will be appreciated.
If you mean deploy as in the App Store, you still can not do that since Xcode 6 and Swift are still in beta. However, if you want to see an app running in swift, you will need to follow a tutorial on the web. A good one is from Ray Wenderlich, and lets you program a game like candy crush all in swift, its a great way to see all the new code work. Hope this helps.
Edit #1
If you are looking for something a bit easier you might want to take a look at Apple's book about swift. It shows how to write the code and gives you samples and experiments to try. Here is a link to the book. And here is a link to a website that posted all the answers to Apple's experiments in the book.

I have been looking around for powerful raytracing interfaces and discovered references to OpenRT but can't seem to find it anywhere. Does it even still exist?
If it is gone, what is the most used library for raytracing that is powerful enough for realtime rendering.
My answer below is all I have managed to find.
Update
I have continued my search and only seem to find OpenRL as it supports most of what I need. However I may end up writing my own wrapper or engine that suits my needs as there seems to be no mature solution. Thanks for the suggestions.
PowerVR Wizard GPUs by Imagination Technologies have been announced recently.
"Wizard is essentially an extension of Imagination’s existing PowerVR
Series6XT Rogue designs, taking the base hardware and adding the
additional blocks necessary to do ray tracing"
Possible, and seems to be the only, solution I have found is OpenRL.

I downloaded magento 1.7.0.2. I was surfing for the past week and testing tutorials on the net and found that most of them is so confusing. For example... They had a path that tells where to put your layout page then when I look at the magento in ftp, the structure is very different from what they are explaining.
Most of the tutorials I found are more than a year old and are probably not compatible with the latest version. That's why I'm looking for the most recent tutorial I could find.
I hope there is a tutorial similar to phpfox knowledge base. Only a few chapters and few examples but covers everything you need to know in creating modules...
If someone could point me to, i would be greatly appreciated...
Thank you in advance...
don't have a link, but as 1.7.0.2 has been out for almost a year, so you could expect it to be the case.
Whilst it's aimed at 'design/layout', I would also suggest going through the designer guide. It's a painful read, but it help me a great deal to understand Magento methodology and where things are 'meant' to be in file structure. It may just help you to find tut references as sometime things in the 'less than best' location still works.
depending on your extension type their wiki may have a few nuggets.
Hay did you read magento developer part 1 to 8? If not link is HERE
That a pretty good example and explanation (basic to advanced).

I am looking for a good Phonegap tutorial for the iphone. I am a beginner and before diving into the various javascript functions it uses I need to learn how to structure the divs on the page.
Any recommendations will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Check out my blog. I have started a phonegap tutorial series - http://hiediutley.com/
The Phonegap wiki has a bunch of tutorials. This page has all tutorials for iOS, Android, and all the rest as well. Here is the tutorial for Xcode 4 and Xcode 3.
My co-worker just wrote a tutorial for how to get started PhoneGap with a simple demo. It might help to get you started with it. Check it out here: http://keyholesoftware.com/2013/03/25/introduction-to-phonegap/
Good luck!
Two good tutorials I found very helpful were these:-
Ray Wenderlich Blog
and
Mobile Tuts plus

Does anybody know any good video tutorial for Emacs (basics)? I found very good tutorials for Vim in Youtube and Vimeo. But for some reason, emacs's video tutorials have all bad quality (can't even read the code).
Any suggestions? (I know you can call me lazy reader)
see this answer -> https://stackoverflow.com/questions/140336/where-can-i-find-a-video-of-a-pro-using-emacs here is probably the best collection http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/EmacsScreencasts
Not exactly an answer to your question, but I suggest browsing the Emacs Wiki. You can usually find information there on any Emacs feature / mode / ... that you can think of, plus you can ask questions if you can't figure something out. It also has a newbie page for new comers in case you have no past Emacs experience. And finally, the Nifty Tricks page is full of tips that are appropriate even to more seasoned Emacs users.
Regarding Emacs screencsts, I've watched a bunch of them (mostly about specific editing modes like the erlang-mode or slime) and most of them are unfortunately of questionable image quality. But have a look at the ones mentioned here, maybe you'll get lucky. Also, there's a PeepCode screen cast which, I'm sure if of good quality, but it costs $9.00.
I suggest to checkout emacsmovies.org, which has decent number of videos on emacs
