A veteran voice actor, probably best known in the gaming community for playing Liquid Snake in the Metal Gear series and Kratos in Tales of Symphonia. But yeah, I'm pretty sure Troy is doing the unknown guy's voice.
Anyway, on to other stuff:
Katawa Shoujo: Todd, you are saying the kind of crap ignorant people say. You're two steps away from being that idiot woman who criticized Mass Effect despite never playing it. No, it's not fetishizing anything and the writing is very good. What's kind of amusing is the illustration that inspired the game was by Raita Honjou, the character designers for Valkyria Chronicles.
RE6: Looking forward to this as I like the idea of three separate routes. What's funny is I made an idea for an RE JUST like this.
FFXIII-2: Too bad they didn't fix the BIGGEST problem with XIII: the god awful writing and story telling. Seriously, it was PAINFUL to hear great VA's like Laura Bailey, Troy Baker, and Ali Hillis spout that terrible dialogue and havbe to trudge through the worst narrative in the series since FFVIII. Toriyama poisons and destroys anything he touches as evidenced with Front Mission: Evolved killing the franchise and 3rd Birthday having some of the most sexist overtones I've ever seen in a game.
SCV: Long time fan of the series. I can't wait to see how newcomers like ZWEI and Viola play as well as learning what's been up with everyone else (like who fathered Hilde's kids)

I blame the rise in popularity of mindless shooters. The more casual frat-boy gamers who just play Call of Duty/Battlefield/Halo. "Too much story, not enough killing things" and all that. This generation ushered in a lot of new faces to gaming, not only from those shooters, but also the Wii's casual crowd grabbing thing. So while a generation ago people loved JRPGs just fine, the same people still love them, there's just more people in the room now so it might be perceived as different. FFXIII still sold well (better than some other FFs even), so yeah, it's just a vocal minority complaining about them, don't worry about it.
Agreed. The only time I can see the narrative being slightly confusing is the flashbacks to the days before the present events are occurring, but that's reaching. Especially for an anime fan who's used to creative and unconventional narratives (Haruhi was a lot more unconventional) And comparing Hope to Jar Jar is laughable hyperbole.

Kawato Shoujo: I wondered why this game was number one on GameFAQs. I admit I know next to nothing about it, but after reading the premise you put here I have a fair idea. People with disabilities are often a rare subject in games (and when they do show up in them, it's usually as an NPC you spend little time with). I likely won't play it, but I'm sure people are enjoying it.
Tokitowa: The presentation looks excellent for this. Toki's dragon is also awesome. :3
Heroes Fantasia: This looks like a great game, but it's Namco x Capcom all over again: we're not getting it. Too many licenses, too many characters to voice (though we dubbed them all, I imagine they couldn't get all the actors under one roof for this game) and the tagline is for RPG enthusiasts. I admit I haven't seen Louie, Orphen, My-HiME, Darker than Black or Sgt. Frog.
FFXIII-2: I really would like to get this but I'm on the fence...only due to the fact I'm in the middle of a mess of RPGs to finish currently. Key points for XIII-2 are the monster system (come on, you know you want a badass Behemoth on your side like I do) and the vaster freedom with the Crystarium. I know there's already been some intense hate for the story; I've heard comments like "a plot that seriously insults your intellect for time traveling stories" and "Why is Lightning even on the cover?". After playing through the demo twice, I just want to give it a full shot for myself.
I really don't see where you're even beginning to draw comparisons between Hope and Jar Jar, odd one. Hope develops and struggles to mature while Jar Jar is largely static in every appearance he's made.
When I brought up shooters being mindless this one time, I got chewed out by this snarky person who said I was no different from the Westboro Church for hating on FPSs.

|Seems Gust returns with more moe goodness. Interesting premise. Eventually want to hear more. Had a chance to see Tokitowa's trailer. Wow, this is an interesting mix though I can't think of any game it resembles. It's like combines all the things you enjoyed during the CD days, plus some arcade. Suddenly I'm reminded of Dragon's Lair to some degree. I need to see more since the trailer only gives you some elements. Heroes Fantasia, Branpresto the master of we can make a game out of any show that's out there. I doubt this will see a port, but that if you can still get a disc and and old PSP it's solid. Didn't expect to see My-HiME in a Branpresto game.

I wonder what will be the next big thing once first-person shooters have plateaued. Its popularity can't last forever, can it?

1- Yeahno. I happen to like a story in games, provided it's not an overly blase narrative like FF13. You know, the cardboard cutouts, the whiny emo kid, the general feeling nothing's accomplished. All of that, told in a way to seem artsier than it is when it's a very dumb story.
2- Maybe Hope is more similar to Superboy Prime than Jar Jar. "Wah wah wah! Life isn't fair! I'm going to kill you Snow with my whining!" Get a LiveJournal you twit. Also, Vanille likes Fang, not you you whiny emo.

I think because he assumed by 'mindless shooters' it was an insult to every FPS out there. Not really the case as there is such a thing as tactical shooters, it's just they're an endangered species in this day and age. Something like SWAT 4 where you moved slowly, had to actually be conscious of your surroundings and the like. That's not a mindless shooter. Mindless shooters are designed to be, well, mindless. You spawn, run in, shoot everything, die, respawn, and do it again. It's all about the death-match gameplay in multi-player. Quick respawn times to get back into the action and 'pwnz some n00bs'.
Hope got over his tiff with Snow fairly early on. By the time he reached his home that issue was pretty much resolved. Also he learned and grew from that experience and developed into a more stern character just like his mother, willing to put his life on the line to protect people and follow in her footsteps.

As I have noticed is the many complaints of FFXIII are in the way the game is played. Linear, yes it may be. First Final Fantasy to be linear, no it is not. I played the demo for FFXIII-2 and I loved most of it. The only things that irked me the wrong way were the action combination timing and the shopkeeper... I'm still getting it and I'm debating on getting the special edition or not...
Also, was I the only one that noticed that Heroes Phantasia was listed as Heroes Fantasia?
Tokitowa looks good.

Probably, I guess I should have been more clear about which shooters I was talking about. Plus it was actually a girl who threw the remark at me.

It's really got nothing to with the Cybuster anime (which DOES not exist at all and has no relation to Masoukishin at all other than a few names and the main mech's loose design.) I mean, The Granzon's a TANK in that! No Akashic Buster, Cosmo Nova, High Familiar, etc...
Also; ATLUS is in the way of another company localizing any SRW games. They've pretty much killed the franchise in the West because of, wait for it, lack of promotion. Also; The OGS/OGG controversy on the forum too. Could've got Masoukishin DS and Endless Frontier EXCEED but alas, it was not to be.
Heroes Phatasia is fun from what I've played so far. It's actually mildly hard (Well done, Banpresto...) which is more or less all about positioning. And hey! I resent the comment about the specials! I like them! Kazuma comes to mind, well, Kazuma and the Mai-Hime characters.

So, how much Japanese do you need to know to be able to play a game like Heroes Phantasia? I've just bought a PSP, and am considering starting to import.

That might be a reason why it quickly spread in some gaming circles, where it was seen as a new thing, but among visual novel fans, it's not particularly exceptional. Eg.: ef has a half-blind girl with anterograde amnesia, several stories like Clannad or Kira Kira, play the "ill girl" trope almost like a disability, etc. VNDB.org lists dozens of Visual novels witht he "disabled heroine" tag as well.
It was just hyped as the first large-scale, high quality original english language VN. It's kinda like naional pride, but for weeaboos.
As in "YES! We proved it! Our boys can also make a Visual Novel around the level of Clannad, Little Sister Kana, Fate/Stay Night, and Ever 17!

|I myself can't help but be reminded of the scene in Welcome to the NHK where the main character and a friend try to make "The Perfect and most Lovable Visual Novel Heroine!" and ended up with some rediculous creation that was something like a blind/deaf/catatonic alien-maid girl.

If you want the story, yeah, you need a fair bit. However; for the actual where you need to go, there's a map button (Square) that has different icons (H-Healing, S-Saving, a red exclamation mark for current objective) The only thing you might have trouble with is increasing stats and the quest menu (which are filled as you progress). An easy way to remember it is strength, defense, charisma (used to convince and stuff like that) and AP Amount. I know for a fact that the fifth option increases base attacks of default attacks and Super moves though but I haven't bothered with anything else.

A Tall Order in San Francisco
A couple builds a 50-foot-high home inspired by its gritty industrial surroundings
San Francisco
When local artist Dana Kawano wanted to paint or break big chunks of stone into sculptures at her home in suburban Menlo Park, she headed to her studio: a 10-by-20-foot, canvas tent from Costco, warmed by patio heaters. Downsides included noise complaints from neighbors and grime on her canvases.
So when her husband John Dunham sold in 2002 his start-up Caw Networks, which made network testing appliances, the couple set out to fulfill their long-held dream of living in the city in a home with a spacious—indoor—art studio.
Completed in 2007 for $3 million, the couple's modern, metal-wrapped home rises just shy of 50 feet in an alley near the gritty southern outskirts of San Francisco's South of Market district, a once-industrial area now dotted with bars, loft developments and dot-coms like Twitter and Zynga.
Boxy windows and cutouts puncture the building's fortress-like grey façade, made of foam-insulated metal panels more typically used to clad commercial buildings. Inside, the 4,620-square-foot, two-bedroom, 3½-bath home is organized around a four-story, steel staircase shaft wrapped by a floating, Brazilian cherry staircase.
Such a vertical space means plenty of exercise for Mr. Dunham, 56, a cyclist who estimated he traverses the stairs several times a day. Ms. Kawano, a petite 51-year-old, prefers the elevator. "I take dance classes so I'm allowed," she said.
Visitors enter through a 10-foot-tall steel door and step into a canyon-like, concrete hallway open to the sky, leading to separate entrances to the home and Ms. Kawano's ground-floor art studio. This time around, Ms. Kawano had to make few concessions. Her new studio has concrete floors, 22-foot ceilings and exposed steel beams; a wall of glass looks onto a bamboo-screened garden with a fountain and stone-sculpting area. Ms. Kawano's office and a sunken tatami guest room, where the floors are made of mats, comprise the second floor. (An adjacent guest bath, with pale green tiles and a Japanese soaking tub, is scaled low for Ms. Kawano's parents when they visit.)
The main living spaces are on the third and fourth floors to take advantage of the city views. Most of the third level is taken up by an open kitchen-living-dining area. Custom stained kaya cabinets conceal clutter and a smoothie station. With three walls of glass, two of which open to an outdoor kitchen and deck, the 550-square-foot space feels larger than it is.
The third floor also has Mr. Dunham's office, where he works on his current start-up Sauce Labs, which tests websites and applications for compatibility across browsers. The master bedroom, bath and another deck make up most of the fourth floor.
The lot's 25-by-100-foot dimensions set the design concept early on. "The idea of vertical circulation tied everything together," said architect Olle Lundberg, whose portfolio includes Twitter's headquarters and Larry Ellison's Pacific Heights home. He noted that a more typical height restriction for a single-family home in the city is 35 feet.
Homes on long, skinny lots can sometimes feel cramped, said architect Michelle Kriebel, who managed the project for Lundberg Design. But in this case the canyon-like hallway on the ground floor lets more light into the home. One side of the hallway is an exterior wall of metal, with large cut-outs; the interior wall is glass. "The light allows the spaces to feel a lot bigger," she said.
The couple didn't set out to build a home from scratch. But when they began looking for a modern property in San Francisco that could accommodate Ms. Kawano's heavy-duty art projects, they realized they'd need to start considering designing their own space as well. They had spent more than six months searching when a broker tipped them off to the SoMa lot, which wasn't on the market. The couple pounced, making an offer within the week. They closed on the lot, which had a warehouse on it, in February 2003 for $600,000. A 4,280-square-foot, poured-concrete home built in 2002 less than a mile away sold in 2010 for $3.1 million.
Like any project, not everything went according to plan. The original plans called for the building's face to be a windowless plane of metal, a dramatic statement that would block views of the narrow alley in front of the house. That got stopped by the city planning department, which Mr. Lundberg said wanted a front with more relief; they stepped back the fourth-floor deck and put in their version of bay windows on the building's face. "It's still a very private looking façade," Mr. Lundberg said, adding that the home's tough exterior is meant to blend in with the area's industrial history.
On a balmy evening, the house was a flurry of activity as a dinner party got under way. Mr. Dunham poured drinks as Ms. Kawano and some of her friends from dance class set the table. Slanted Door chef Charles Phan, a friend of Mr. Lundberg's who had advised Mr. Dunham on his outdoor kitchen, tossed a grapefruit and jicama salad as he directed kitchen traffic.
Later, after a multi-course dinner, the group retired to the rooftop, wineglasses in hand and city lights below.
"This is why we moved," Ms. Kawano said.

|Re: [RT] Building ECM++ for 2.2
|Mon, 18 Oct 2004 13:39:33 GMT
I encourage Carsten to wholeheartedly undertake this task. I really only have two thoughts. 1. I don't think it is a good idea to keep the same package names for ECM if they are moved into Cocoon. That could be very confusing. I realize it would be a lot of work to rename existing classes that use those interfaces, but done on the proper release boundary I think it is the right thing to do. 2. JMX is the right way to go for instrumentation. Ralph

Hey, I'm Matthew!
Hello! My name is Matt, from Chicago. I'm 26 years old, and hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from Wayne State University, in Detroit. I currently work at Clarity Consulting in Chicago, IL.
My primary interests include technology, music, and urban planning. As a computer scientist and IT professional, I enjoy keeping up with the latest news and developments in the world of gadgets and technology. I'm heavily interested in anything regarding mobility, i.e. smart phones, tablets, wireless network infrastructure, etc.
I am also a saxophonist, and still enjoy playing whenever possible. I've been playing for over 10 years, and will also keep music a part of my life. I listen to all sorts of music! Classic Rock, Jazz, Electronic...you name it! I'm always open to learn about new music, and always enjoy those discussions.
A new interest I've picked up on lately is urban planning. I find cities fascinating - the culture, the people, and all the things that make cities tick. I especially enjoy anything to do with transportation. Mass transit, maps, grid layouts, etc. It ties into my love of travel, and exploring new cities!
I hope this short description helps you get to know me better. If you wish to get in touch with me, just drop me a line. Thanks!

Anvil! The Story of Anvil screens tonight
You might think Anvil! The Story of Anvil is a mockumentary in the vein of This is Spinal Tap. It is not. Anvil! tells the true tale of a Canadian metal band whose 1982 release of Metal on Metal went on to influence mega-acts like Metallica, Anthrax, and Slayer. Over 20 years later, bandmates Steve Kudlow and Robb Reiner still dream of breaking into the mainstream, despite living relatively normal lives with wives, children, and construction/catering jobs. Anvil! The Story of Anvil tells the true tale of their last-ditch effort to make it big.
Director Sacha Gervasi filmed the documentary several years back, serving as a roadie on their tour of Canadian hockey arenas, then on to a European tour, which had disastrous results. Misadventures on the tour ranged from the band getting lost in Czechoslovakia, playing to an audience of one, and fighting with a bookie who tried to pay the band in goulash.
While there are moments of hilarity (the stunned film crew would periodically ask Gervasi if subjects were actually paid actors), there are also many moments of tears and heartbreaking reality.
A hit at the Sundance Film Festival, Anvil! The Story of Anvil begins screening here in Minneapolis tonight at the Uptown Theatre (2906 Hennepin Ave., Minneapolis; 612.825.6006). For a complete list of show times, check out the link here.

No Blues BBQ Sandwiches
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 1 hr
A great veggie BBQ sandwich. My family loved it, and they hate tofu (I didn't tell them what was in it). Prep time does NOT include up to 5 days of marinating the tofu.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb extra firm tofu
- 1 cup barbecue sauce
- 4 whole wheat hoagie rolls
Sandwich fixins
- sauteed onion
- diced bell pepper
- Drain the tofu and cut it in half horizontally to make two pieces.
- Wrap the tofu in a clean towel, press it between two baking sheets with a weight on top, and refrigerate for an hour or more.
- Unwrap the tofu and place it in a shallow baking dish.
- Spoon 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce over the tofu, cover the baking dish, and let the tofu marinate in the refrigerator for at least several hours.
- The longer the tofu marinates (up to five days), the more flavorful it will be.
- Place the marinated tofu on a lightly oiled baking sheet, and bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour.
- Slice the sandwich rolls open, cut the tofu into thin slices, and divide it among the rolls.
- Mix the sautèed onions, bell peppers, or your favorite fixings with the remaining barbecue sauce, and spoon over the sandwiches.

My waistline and arteries thank you. This recipe is a great to feed the BBQ sandwich craving without the guilt. I let it marinate for 3 days and topped my sandwich with sauteed onions and bell pepper, served with roasted potato wedges and jalapeno coleslaw. Thanks for posting the recipe.
What a great sandwich! The tofu is nice and firm, and the BBQ sauce adds a nice flavor. Had mine with lots of onions and lots of sauce. Yum! I cut the tofu into about 6 slices to marinate and then bake, only because I wanted more surface area to soak up all the sauce flavors. Thanks for the wonderful lunch, Mirj!

Prior to the holidays, the Graduate Student Organization (GSO) solicited donations of toys, games, and other kid-related items from the Biomedical Sciences (BMS) family. This yearly event, "The Jared Box Project" is a nation-wide mission to improve the lives of hospitalized children by providing opportunities to play. Once the offerings were collected, the GSO wrapped and delivered the gifts to children, from newborn to 18 years old, at Cabell-Huntington Hospital.
This year's delivery team included Rachel Murphy, PhD Candidate and GSO President; Rabia Ahmed (Taha's sister); Taha Ahmed, PhD Candidate; Debbie Amos, PhD student and GSO Vice President; and Kristeena Wright, PhD Candidate.
It is hard to say who had a better time, those getting the gifts or those who were able to share them!
Ms. Murphy extended a "big THANK YOU" to everyone who donated toys or cash to this great project."

We spent two nights at your Inn and were pleasantly surprised. I can be a picky guest if rooms aren't clean or if items in the room aren't working properly. Nice large flat screen TV's and nice hotel atmosphere and very clean rooms. My daughter loved the indoor pool and we enjoyed the jacuzzi and nice supply of soft regular sized towels! The hot breakfast had a good selection of items and also liked the free newspaper. The staff was pleasant and informative about surrounding activities. Appreciated the large selection of pamphlets and surrounding area activity nformation. Fresh cookies, coffee and tea in the lobby a plus. We would definitely stay here again when we visit Asheville. Thank you for doing such a good job.

WACO (August 2, 2013)—Police have identified the body of a man found near the Bosque River Thursday as John Michael Johnson, 34, of Woodway.
Some fishermen found Johnson Thursday morning inside a pickup truck parked near the Bosque River in far west Waco.
Justice of the Peace Kristi DeCluitt pronounced Johnson dead at the scene and ordered an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
Waco police Sgt. W. Patrick Swanton said there were no obvious signs of foul play at the scene and investigators would have to wait on autopsy reports to issue a cause of death.
The fisherman called police at around 12:15 p.m. Thursday after finding the body inside the 2004 black Dodge pickup.

How do I locate the end points of a bridge-like structure in an image?
Below is a generalized representation.
I have a set of images that look like what you see on the left hand column as shown in the above picture. What I am trying to detect/locate is actually the two endpoints that are shown on the right hand column in the above picture. It's quite like locating the "two ends points" of the 'bridge'.
I have applied some basic morphological operations; however, either I'm doing it wrong or those basic morphological operations aren't working in this scenario. (I have tried making it into skeletons; however, once the skeletons are formed, I can't seem to detect the cross with three edges).
Thanks for the previous suggestion; however, it looks like the original sets of images cannot be completely generalized like what I'd previously drawn.
I have attached the latest updates to this question. Below is a more detailed representation that includes the original segmented regions and the corresponding images that'd undergone a "thinning" morphological operation. Again, the left side is the originally segmented region; while on the right would be the points to be detected.

Editor's Note: This report is part of an ongoing series looking at the personal impact United Way partner agencies have on those in the Fort Smith area. The series appears weekly on Tuesdays in the Living section.
Back in 1964, a smiling John Paul Wells was one of the first people to step through the doors of the Boys & Girls Club of Paris.
The lifelong Paris resident was only 9 when he first ventured into the club at its original location, 601 Patterson St. in Paris, yet he remembers that first time as if it were only yesterday. That day, the club began to serve as a healthy, educational alternative to a path of potential juvenile delinquency, Wells said.
"It cost 25 cents to get into the club that day, and you got a hat," said the 59-year-old Wells, who served as state representative for the 84th District from 1995-2001 and co-owns and manages Wells Furniture in Paris. "I was first in line with some friends — I'm still great friends with those friends to this day — and we got to participate in baseball and track. It was great."
A community partner of the United Way of Fort Smith Area and now located at 717 N. Fifth St., the club served members with an avenue for staying active and forging friendships to last decades, Wells said. It was rewarding for Wells to see his friendships with other members bloom, and he viewed the club's adult staff and volunteers with equal affection and respect.
"I actually contribute my success — and the success of my friends there — to Bentley Allen, the man who started the Paris club," said Wells, a former City Council member who also works as fire chief for the city of Paris. "Mr. Allen was a math teacher for years in Paris, and he still works with the club there today. He was a huge influence on me, and I know that Mr. Allen will have crowns in heaven."
As a coach for the club's baseball and track activities, Allen used his positive words and forgiving nature to help shape club members, Wells said. Allen still tutors club members, he said.
"It was good because we kids were at the club, instead of getting into trouble somewhere else," Wells said. "We spent a lot of days at the club — we were there all of the time — playing pool and ping pong. There was a little TV set up there, and then a pool was built next door."
When Wells became a state representative, he acted in a "conservative-Democrat" manner, campaigning for programs that raised money for Boys and Girls Club programs.
"We raised money for the clubs in Paris and in Booneville," he said. "I don't know how much money we raised, but I know I wanted to give back to the club."
Cheri Garcez, executive director for the club, calls Wells a role model for club members and community members alike.
"Mr. Wells still carries his Boys Club membership card from when he was a kid in his wallet now, and that's awesome," she said. "Any time I need some assistance with programs or services we provide, I'll contact Mr. Wells and he is very willing to help. He loves the Boys and Girls Club here."
The club offers a safe environment for children ages 4-18 via basketball, baseball, softball, football, soccer, cheerleading, boxing, golf, track and swim team programs. Other programs include an after-school snack, as well as the Torch Club, which teaches leadership, good citizenship, community service and more. Without these programs, children could not grow up to be productive adults like Wells, Garcez said.
"Mr. Wells is wonderful," she said. "We see him everywhere, and he loves talking about the club."
Wells and his wife, Michele, have three children and eight grandchildren. All of the children were club members, and their grandchildren are involved in club activities today.
"Yes, we have three generations of Boys and Girls Club members going; it's been fun," Wells said. "And I know that the Boys and Girls Club of Paris has saved lots and lots of kids in the Paris area. It's helped kids who otherwise could have turned out to be unproductive citizens, but the club, Cheri and the United Way all have been excellent."
Wells said he estimated that the club had 70 boys and girls as members that first year in 1964.
"Well, it seemed like 70 kids," he said with a laugh. "I was 9 back then, so maybe I couldn't quite count as well as I do today, but I know there were a lot of kids at the club."
For information, call (479) 963-3577 or visit the club's Facebook page.

Baez homers in debut as Cubs top Rockies, 6-5
8/6/2014 @ 6:38 AMDENVER (AP) - Javier Baez homered in the 12th inning in his major league debut and the Chicago Cubs beat the Colorado Rockies 6-5 on Tuesday night.
Wellington Castillo also homered for the Cubs, who have won four of five.
Baez, a prized prospect called up before the game, struck out in three of his first five at-bats before hitting Boone Logan's first pitch of the 12th an estimated 414 feet into the Rockies' bullpen.
Hector Rondon blew his fourth save but got the win and Carlos Villanueva picked up his second save.
Both teams scored a run in the 11th to extend the game.
Nolan Arenado homered and Logan took the loss for the Rockies, who have dropped five straight.

Yeah, every other theme that I try it is fine.
I set the "Sort Order" within Woocommerce Settings, to show most recent products first by default. Enfold is the only theme that is taking that, and sorting from the absolute oldest first.
I don't know why, appreciate any input you guys can offer on that.March 29, 2014 at 5:33 pm in reply to: Woocommerce Product Sort Conflict with Enfold… #244782
Here was the answer given by woo-support:
Hi Gerry
I have just tested this locally with the latest version of WooCommerce, 2.1.6 and it sorts fine for me when I select sort by most recent.
I see you have it currently set to default, which uses a combination of the menu order and name, if you want to display the latest products first you must set that option to Most Recent.
What I am noticing is that you theme has custom orders on the archive pages, so that could also be the cause of the issue as they seem to override this.
You can do a test and switch to twenty thirteen theme and see if the order works correctly when using that.

Ok, well I've done Dude's and Ismael's and neither are working for me.
Back to full manual labor.
Thanks for the help guys.
GerryJuly 4, 2013 at 6:43 pm in reply to: Update Entire Store – Overview #127424
Just so that I am completely clear:
** The store already exists with almost 2000 items in it
** I've applied the last code change posted here by Ismael
** I've undone the code change provided by Dude
_The product images are still not changing on 'Hover'
_Logging into the product management page – 'Yes' is selected for Hover option
_ We still manually have to click 'Update' for the change to take effect even though YES is selected by default on existing products
Is there a fix for this, or do I tell my staff to go in and manually do 2000 products?July 4, 2013 at 6:30 pm in reply to: Update Entire Store – Overview #127423
I appreciate everyone taking a stab at this…
However, none of these solutions are changing the fact that we have to manually go in, after the code is changed, and to hit 'Update' on each product in order for the change to take effect.
Does anyone have a workaround for that? 'Update' all products?July 3, 2013 at 5:29 pm in reply to: Update Entire Store – Overview #127421
So back to square on of going in manually across 2000 products?
Shitty.July 2, 2013 at 5:01 am in reply to: Update Entire Store – Overview #127419
Sorry, I responded too soon…
That did not work, the images that I thought the snippet of code fixed were actually manually edited by my assistant in the last 2 days.
The code has been changed as instructed, but it did not work.July 2, 2013 at 2:44 am in reply to: Update Entire Store – Overview #127418
That did it!
Thanks a bunch :)

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The headliners were Jimbo Fisher and Dabo Swinney at Friday's ACC Kickoff, as it has been for the past five years, when either Clemson or Florida State has won the conference each season. And then there was Louisville, perhaps the best-kept secret in college football.
"We have a goal to win a national championship," Cardinals coach Bobby Petrino said, "and I've made sure our players understand that."
Petrino's goal wasn't to convince the media of the same, but he certainly made his case that the idea wasn't far-fetched.
On defense, a flurry of talent returns, led by potential All-Americans DeVonte Fields, Keith Kelsey, and DeAngelo Brown.
On offense, quarterback Lamar Jackson was a revelation down the stretch last season, and now he insists he'll deliver even bigger results as a sophomore in 2016.
"You're going to see a whole lot of everything from me," said Jackson, who rushed for 960 yards while learning the ropes of the passing game last season. "Last year we were a young team. This year is a whole other story. We've been hitting the books hard."
So, a stellar defense and an electric quarterback coming into his own. Is Louisville really on par with Florida State and Clemson?
"We know it's a tough road," Petrino said. "We've got Clemson and Florida State just in our division, two teams that have been to the national championship game. We know it's a great challenge, but it's one we're certainly looking forward to."
And truth be told, it's a challenge Florida State and Clemson might not be quite as excited about.
In each of the past two seasons, the Cardinals have taken Clemson to the wire, losing on a goal-line stand and a missed field goal.
Louisville led Florida State at halftime each of the past two seasons, too, including a 7-6 edge last season. The result of that game, however, was a blowout, with the Seminoles winning 41-21. It was a lesson for Jackson.
"We need to score more points," he said in response to a question about how to topple FSU this time around.
It was succinct, but that's sort of the point. No one on Louisville's roster thinks the team is that far from overtaking the Atlantic Division elites. It's just a matter of finishing the drill, edging forward just a tick.
So while Clemson and Florida State took questions about handling expectations, Louisville happily played the part of bridesmaid. No need for the spotlight now.
"They'll see what's going to happen this year," Kelsey said. "We'll just leave it at that."

Being a beautiful and high-profile woman sounds great, if you can get past all the objectification and the often criminal invasions of your privacy. Also, sometimes, even when you definitely didn't ask them to, nice men who you're pretty sure you've never met make robots modeled after you.
Who among us knew that Wall-E, the lost puppy of robots, foreshadowed our emotional dependence on wire and metal? As the line distinguishing human from robot shifts and blurs, it turns out that those of us with flesh and blood may no longer reserve our empathy for other humans. A recent study published in Scientific…
A little girl from the town Timmins, Ontario with the cool name of Cash Cayen was stoked to see a summer robotics program being offered at her local library. The library's assistant director refused her registration, saying that only boys were allowed to participate. The reason being that "boys' academic and literacy…
The new movie Ex Machina has been pushing people's buttons. It features a seemingly vulnerable robot named Ava, who's as beautiful as she is mysterious. But Ava's just the latest in a long line of artificial seductresses, girlfriends and mothers. Why are so many thinking machines female?
It's the most adorable time of the year: the White House Science Fair, when the nation gets to watch President Obama interact with charming, science-minded children.
"Aww thanks Mom for all the words of encouragement," wrote Reese Witherspoon on Instagram the day after she did not win a Golden Globe for her role in Wild. Inquiring minds would like to know: Is Reese Witherspoon's mother just in the stage of excessive excitement after recently discovering emojis or is she actually a…
The holiday shopping season is upon us, and with it, questionable business innovations. For instance! Hardware store Lowe's is testing customer service robotsat one of its California outposts. What, because everybody just LOVED automated answering systems?
Tinder is a great way to find
hookups romance near you, but it still relies on you and your potential partner finding each other mutually attractive. Since you can't always rely on that, why not boost your odds—say, with a robotic finger that can "like" up to 900 Tinderers per hour?
It only took them 16 years but Dyson has created a Roomba competitor. It promises "the most powerful suction of any robot vacuum" and comes equipped with 360-degree camera to help navigate. You know it's futuristic because they used a man with a British accent to narrate the demo video.

Sex writers, on the surface, seem to have a great life. They write about the best, most pleasurable topic in human existence and seem to have an all around good time in the process. Not only that, but sometimes they get cool free shit to test out (vibrators, dildos, etc.) Then sometimes they have to ask their spouses…
The new Transformers movie expertly duplicates the experience of taking an endless road trip with your father, who refuses to see you as a separate person and who is also quietly falling apart. It's dull, horrifying and miserable. But after nine hours, you realize you're seeing the failure of patriarchy, in miniature.
In Tokyo, two robotic terrors have just slithered their way out of the uncanny valley in order to demonstrate just how unsettlingly almost humanlike they are. According to reports, their levels of "unsettling almost humanlike-ness" is "extremely high."
The weird little tail-whip motion that sperm use to get to their Holy Grail has been co-opted by scientists for use in miniature robots.
The fast food industry has a solution to the rising demand to raise worker salaries. They'll simply develop advanced technology to replace them. That's right—robot fast food workers are coming. AI or GTFO.
A recent survey of 2,000 people by Middlesex University found that 1 in 5 members of the British public would willingly have sex with a robot, which means that 4 in 5 members of the British public are liars who would also have sex with a robot.
The poor people of Great Britain, who once conquered nations and ruled an empire of millions, now find themselves quaking in fear over a very real and terrifying threat—robots.
Alright, I'm going to be honest—the robot sex we're about to talk about isn't the sexy Jude Law from AI Artificial Intelligence type. Nope, it's the type of robot sex that helps us learn about certain reproductive behaviors in animals.

A Glow in the Night
A Glow in the Night
Skeptical of seafarers' tall tales, he was led to safety in a storm by a mysterious green light.
Something about the sea can drive men mad. How else to explain all those stories of alluring mermaids, terrifying sea monsters and ghost ships? Like the legend of the Flying Dutchman, forever floating above the waves, its long-dead crew delivering dire warnings to the spooked sailors of passing vessels.
As a writer and sailor, I find these stories fascinating, but the name of my 35-foot sailboat reflects how I feel about them– Tall Tales.
My buddy Tristan was like me, which is why I thought he was pulling my leg when he revealed his own unlikely tale. He had been on a long solo voyage in his small sailboat, and was sleeping belowdecks with the boat on autopilot.
Something awakened him in his bunk, and thinking he'd hit rough seas, he ran up on deck. "I swear to you," Tristan told me, "at the helm was a guy dressed like a seventeenth-century sailor."
"Come on." I rolled my eyes.
"The guy yelled at me," Tristan insisted, "in Spanish: 'I can't do everything... you have to do the rest.'" The mysterious sailor gestured ahead. A supertanker was bearing down on Tristan's boat.
Tristan pushed the man aside and grabbed the tiller, turning the boat hard to starboard, narrowly avoiding a collision. The tanker's bow wave heaved his boat over, and when it righted itself, the upper spreader and the boom were seriously damaged. "I was lucky to be alive," Tristan said. "The tanker crew never even saw me."
"And the seventeenth-century Spanish dude?" I asked.
"Gone." Of course he was.
I thought about Tristan's story while I got Tall Tales ready for my annual winter migration from New York City to Florida. Ted, the marina's dockmaster, warned me that a nor'easter was churning toward the coast.
I wasn't worried. My first stop was Manasquan, New Jersey, only 40 miles south. The predicted storm wouldn't arrive until late that night–long after I would be safely tucked in. I'd spend a few days visiting friends and wait for a weather window for my next jump offshore.
Tall Tales tugged at her lines as the first eddies of the ebb rippled the water. That tide would become a torrent flushing us down the East River, through New York Harbor, under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge and out to sea. "You sure you're comfortable with this, Stu?" Ted asked again.
"Sure. I'll be in with time to spare. I'll see you in the spring." I gave a cheerful wave as I cast off.
New York was far astern when Tall Tales lifted to a steep sea, slid into a trough, then accelerated upward, climbing yet another white-capped wave. The seas were choppy but the wind was aft and that meant I'd arrive ahead of schedule.
Sure enough, shortly after noon I spotted Manasquan's sea buoy and began angling in toward shore. The waves had become steep, sharp ridges, tops blown into spume by a howling wind.
Dark clouds hung overhead. The storm had outrun the forecaster's prediction. I breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God I made it here in time.
A wave rocked the boat. I steadied myself and looked ahead. Instead of welcoming jetties lining a calm inlet, a column of roiling breakers smashed into the seawalls. The inlet's entrance churned and spun like a washing machine. No way could I get in.
The sea morphed into a maelstrom–spray, crashing waves, the screams of a full-fledged gale. I had no choice. Forget Manasquan and run south, ahead of the storm–the only direction possible–to find safe harbor.
Just as I changed my heading, Tall Tales slammed into a trough. My electronics flickered out. No radar, no GPS, no running lights. Tall Tales was tossed about in the gathering darkness by the rage of a full-blown nor'easter.
I hoped to reach the Atlantic City Inlet, 50 miles–some 10 hours–south, but without instrumentation, an entrance would be impossible. If I turned shoreward at the wrong point, waves would smash me into the Brigantine shoals, a line of reefs far off the Jersey shore that for centuries has snared unwary ships.

i have 4 disks, sd[a,b,f,g] of various sizes that I want to 'merge' together. I am using mdadm to achieve this.
my question is, what's the difference between --
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=linear --raid-devices=4 /dev/sda /dev/sdb /dev/sdf /dev/sdg
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=linear --raid-devices=4 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdf1 /dev/sdg1
When both work? For some reason (if someone could explain this too, it would be awesome) I lose a lot of disk space as is when I look at /dev/md0 but if I create partitions and then create a linear raid, I end up losing even more space.
So why create partitions at all? Even when I do not have this setup and just want to use a disk, can I just do a mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda ?
Additional stuff - Here's /proc/partitions -
8 0 244140625 sda
8 1 244139008 sda1
8 16 244140625 sdb

8 81 39061504 sdf1
8 96 156290904 sdg
8 97 156289024 sdg1
WHy are the sizes of my partitions smaller than my disk as listed above?

CLEARWATER, Fla. - When Ruben Amaro Jr. turned into David Copperfield and pulled a giant rabbit named Cliff Lee out of a cocked hat, most of Philadelphia slept.
If you were awake just after midnight on that cold mid-December night, you spent the next couple of hours in euphoric glee, pinching yourself with the fingers on whichever hand was not feverishly surfing various baseball sites to confirm the blockbuster dropped out of the Phillies' website.
Joe Terry is an early riser. And when he flicked on the WIP (610-AM) morning show, he noticed Angelo Cataldi's voice was an octave higher, giddy as a man on laughing gas.

Become Premium to Watch
Playdead's followup to Limbo expands on and improves all of that game's ideas so thoroughly, there's no question why it took six years to get here.
Homefront may look pretty, but it's a monotonous and confused slog.
It's hard to imagine a better Doom game in 2016 than this exhilarating, darkly witty new take on id's classic.
Game »
consists of 1 releases.
Released Dec 21, 2000
A green-haired girl who first meets Justin on his voyage to New Parm and is impressed with his courage and fighting spirit. As both an agile fighter and accomplished mage, she has no trouble fending for herself, yet she joins Justin in his quest for adventure and eventually becomes his romantic interest. Her weapons of choice are whips and daggers.
A seasoned knight in gold armor who challenged Justin to a battle when they first met, and being thoroughly convinced he is a true hero, joins him on his journey. He is a strong and capable fighter who is handy with a sword, and even imparts some of his wisdom to his new friend.
Justin is the main character in the first Grandia game. He lives in the town of Parm with his best friend Sue and his single mother Lilly. It is in Parm that Justin's adventure begins and he sets off to the new continent of Elencia.
A mysterious woman who contacted Justin in the Sult Ruins. She resides in a floating information database that contains knowledge and records of an ancient civilization. Highly skilled in magic, Liete can command a wide assortment of spells for a variety of effects. She, like Gadwin, can wield only one type of weapon, in her case, maces.
Justin's best friend as well as cousin and constant tag-along on his adventures. Unlike Justin, she is quite mature and levelheaded for her age but can be just as emotional as any child depending on the situation. She aids in combat not only by casting several magic spells, but also by using ranged weapons like bows or throwing her pet Puffy (originally named Pooey in the Japanese version) like a projectile. She can also use maces.

you are viewing a single comment's thread.
i for one never said a cut was coming this quarter, but the fact remains clear that nrgy is short funding with respect to DCF and will be for at least 12 months or more. the weather here in the northeast is very mild and has been for some time, this will furtherimpact their ability to cover DCF going forward. the projects coming on line will not cover the short fall. nrgy may not meet the street expectations on earning and I don't see how they can given the variousnegative factors - there may be further down side pressure to at least the 20 area. i was sucked into the stock by the insider buys at 23 and change. should have done the work before diving in. looking at the chart it looked like a bottom. now we are headed to 20 it seems. Tres Palacios TX dome is under performing. the spin off of nrgy best asset class- mid stream- will help but that was a prime asset class that nrgy now has only a 75% stake in. as that spin off grows nrgy collective "assets" will be enhanced. the question is should we own an under performing pipe when others like OKE - great mid stream pipe are raising their distros and will double by 2014. i still have some shares but this will take time to turn it self around.
I keep hearing that it is "warm" in the northeast. This year is colder than 2010 and about the same as 2011 where I live (Maine).
ugghh..its snowing.Buy now and store it away like the smart money does...get a few 3% divi per quarter and if gets cut no big deal...as this market turns around and cycles you will be selling your shares at higher pps to all those suckers that decide to stay in the game and the new saps that enter..thats how the game works. buy low sell high..I am a buyer now and then at 18 and 12..if I can be so lucky.The CEO has 14M plus shares, he wants to get paid!!! and so should you.

Skip to comments.Pope Francis on Gays: Who Am I to Judge Them If Theyre Seeking the Lord in Good Faith?UPDATED
Posted on 07/29/2013 11:56:41 AM PDT by NYer
click here to read article
He even asked the journalists to refer back to the Cathechism for the clear and complete teachings of the Catholic Church on this matter.
Earlier today, I red on a Brazilian paper that the US media have been extremely negative on the Pope's visit to Brazil, highlighting minor mishaps and misquoting the Pope.
I tend to agree with that sentiment.
Sorry, but the Pope's statement really does not sit well with me. Benedict would never have condoned homosexuality. I expect the pope to condemn abhorrent behvavior not neutralize it.
How to choose who to defrock. I dunno- lets START with all the priests who have been moved and hidden for abusing children. If they are guilty enough to pay off their victims and hide in other parishes-they should be defrocked. What if 5000 of the 7000 priests are KNOWN to be homosexual? ( And I have no doubt that almost all are known within the clergy). Well- those 5000 are illegitimate and should be defrocked. They are NOT priests if they break their vows then presume to preach against sin to the laity. None of the sacraments they perform are legitimate either.
How to tell is easy- local bishops know who the gay priests are in their parishes, Archbishops know who the gay Bishops are, and Cardinals know who the gay Archbishops are. They have been embedded in the Church forever, and they all know to protect each other-if they out an underling they, too, will be outed. It's a 'good old girls' club and its old and entrenched. Why else would any Godly Pope allow it to continue? It's like mutilating the patient to save them from cancer-no Pope wants to be the one to shine the light on the roaches and start exterminating.
I meant what I said-and I am the product of 12 years of Catholic school- I would rather have a world with ONE legitimate priest per continent than thousands who are abominations and illegitimate. These perverts are why the Catholic church is suffering in world opinion, and in the loss of practicing Catholics. Religion and hypocrisy are a toxic mix.
And as for the media turning the defrocked priests into 'victims'- I don't give a damn. Better they be 'victims' and OUT of my Church, than that they continue to victimize children and practice sodomy while representing Christ. So if there will be victims anyway- let it be the perverts-not children or the Catholic Church.
Coveting thy neighbor's wife is a sin. How is coveting thy neighbor's husband, brother, father, et al, not one?
There were something like 700 journalists signed on for WYD. In posting these threads, I often search for images from the event. There were very few. I had to pull them from personal postings on Facebook. This is the first time I have ever encountered anything like this. 3 million people on the beach at Copacabana, in silent prayer, and no media photos!
The Brazilian paper had it right .. the mainstream media sent journalists in hopes of finding something controversial. It wasn't until the end of the event that they found their opportunity, by twisting a statement made by the pope.
I agree with you about homosexuals repenting. In fact, Paul had noted in 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 that some church members who had been previously practicing fordidden sex had evidently repented and accepted God's grace to stop doing so.
Just as 1 Corinthians 5 shows that Paul reprimanded the church in Corinth for tolerating members that engaged in forbidden sex, so-called priests who engage in forbidden sexual relationships should likewise be given the boot imo.
Also, since were talking about priests, note that Titus 1:7 indicates that overseers will probably be held to higher moral standards when they are judged.
Here are some.
gays are not asking for forgiveness, they are demanding approval and forcing their views on the rest of us. that is not asking for forgiveness.
if you demand acceptqnce and approval for your sin, and keep sinning, that ain't forgivenesss and it ain't repentance ie - go and sin no more.
ALL unsaved sinners are the minions of satan. by definition. some just love their sins more than others.
"Pope Francis reiterated the Churchs belief that having a homosexual orientation is not sinful but engaging in homosexual acts is."
BS. Homosexual orientation? As long as a frog doesn't act
like a frog he can be a toad. Sounds like a backtrack to me.
So it's ok to be a homo and enter the kingdom of heaven as
long as you don't blow the prophets? It's not the church
I'm mad about, it's the homo's and their agenda.
Ultimate oxymoron, "homosexual priest". Francis the Pope
just condoned homosexual priesthood. That's it in a
if you have no explanation and reality of the law, people won't realize they need the gospel. the law shows you why you are doomed, and in this way, points those worried about their fate, to the gospel.
No wonder the Pope doesn't grant interviews. Everything gets twisted into untruths.
Why do you slander the Pope? "fondler"
Hate the sin; love the sinner.
I was speaking of judging behaviors, of course. I don't know how anyone could think themselves able to judge souls.
Thank you for the link! I see what I was doing wrong. I searched on World Youth Day 2013. You searched on pope, beach, rio. Perhaps the msm do not recognize WYD terminology.
**Hes a socialist
He likes Muslims
And now the gay lifestyle**
I disagree.
Didn't think this pope would jump the shark this quick. Just one more step in the faggotization of society in general
While one is alive — Christ is perfect mercy.
At the moment of one's death — Christ becomes perfect justice.
What you said!
Media spin aside, I do not like the pope's attempt to minimize abhorrant behavior. Homosexual priests have no place in a church. I expect a priest to condemn sin, not excuse it or whitewash it. The Church has been infiltrated with filth since Vatican II. Francis' words are what I would expect from an episcopalian. Very disappointing indeed.
I cannot picture hearing words like this from Benedict.
Kingdom of God is exclusive... none of us deserve it.. but thank God He made a way.... and that Way, Truth and Life said go and sin no more.... knowing what is sin and abominations to God is a good start for all.. Gods word is our law book.. and we are guilty... all of us. Can't plead innocence or ignorance.. our next step is to repent and stop doing what we were doing before we knew what price our sins cost The Eternal Father- His only Son... kind of humbling for those who can be humbled... pride gets in the way of that humbling.... gay pride, murderer pride, adulterer pride, thief pride, liars pride, coveters pride..... we all could join most of those parades on earth.... but in paradise it is all about Him...
Yes, NYer.
Clean house and stop excusing why it isn't being done.
So what if it takes a while.
It's far better than what is happening NOW, which is nothing.
At least starting is a step in the right direction, amount of time it takes notwithstanding.
A local pastor in Seattle tells the story of how he thought a special Saturday service to focus on women would be good. I forget how he worded the announcement that made it into the surrounding community - but somehow it attracted a large number of lesbians!
He said that was the last thing he had expected - but he figured it was a sure sign from God that when the first few pews were filled with homosexuals - he was supposed to minister to them. He somehow tailored additional Saturday services to focus, in a loving way, on their specific needs and issues.
"I was speaking of judging behaviors, of course."
There was a freeper a long time ago that said his dad, or perhaps their preacher said something like:
"I don't consider myself as a Judge. More like a fruit inspector."
He supports homosexual priests. He says it's ok for
Catholic priests to be gay as long as they don't act
on their perverted whims. Most likely he is one himself
and if not, might as well be considering he just opened
the door for the total perversion of the church.
Perverted homosexual priests are not of sound or honest
mind. They undermine the integrity and trust of the church.
How can you trust a priest who has a vile and corrupt
perverted mind? As long as they don't practice their
perversion it's ok to trust them?
Homosexuality has NO place in the Catholic priesthood. To
condone or sympathize with it shows no compassion but
Who Am I to Judge Them If Theyre Seeking the Lord in Good Faith?
How does he know it's in good faith when their
minds are sick?
The church itself is not the problem here. It's the
homosexual infiltration that has as it's goal to bring
it down and Francis the fondler just gave them cart blanch.
LOL, that's perfect.

SAN ANTONIO (March 22, 2014) The shooting deaths of a San Antonio woman and her 4-year-old son appear to have been a murder-suicide, police say.
Family members found the bodies Friday afternoon after going to check on the woman and her son whom they were unable to reach.
The relatives looked through a window and saw the bodies in the locked residence.
San Antonio firefighters were dispatched to break into the home.
The bodies of Brianna Lee, 27, and her son Dominic Rangel were found in a bedroom, police said.
They were each shot once, McManus said.
A handgun was found at the scene.

Hi, I am a native Austinite and have been interested in cemeteries for quite awhile. I enjoy wandering around looking at the headstones. It took my brothers death on June 29, 2012 to create my first memorial here. I also enjoy motorcycles, tattooing, photography and travel.
Leftridge is my adopted name. I dont know who my biological father is. Names on my Moms side are Howard,Loflin,Darnell,Marsh, Inge, Bodenhamer,and Beason. Thats all I've come up with so far. I have found living cousins here, Dori Chrisp, and Roy Short, who has been very helpful.
If you have time, please visit my Great Grandmothers memorial. My Grand dad and brother are right below.

Mike, I just wanted to say that you are in my thoughts. I know it's hard for you when you remember and miss your brother Doug for it is evident that you loved him very much. Please know that I and so many others share your pain. It has meant so much to me that you have remembered my son Danny on so many occasions. You are a very special young man. Hope all is well with you.
Take care,

RE: Josephine kern
No, I am about 30 minutes away. Did you need more photos? I have taken all of the Shelbina cem. and
am adding photos to memorials already made and will add others as time allows. Yesterday was the
first time I was in St.Marys so will get It done also. Let me know if you need any more as I love
to do this.

Thank you
Hi Mike, my name is Kayla. I wanted to thank you for leaving flowers on my brother Weldon's memorial. He is in the Oak Hill Cemetery in Lampasas. He has been gone for 18 years now, and I miss him more today than I ever have. He was very heavy on my heart this morning and I got on here to see his picture. I saw you had left flowers and I just wanted to say thank you. Weldon was killed by a drunk driver at the age of 14 while riding his bike. I wanted to say that I prayed for you this morning and I am terribly sorry for the loss of your brother Doug.

RE: Doug Leftridge
Hi Mike, Just couldn't let the holidays go by without remembering Doug and thinking of you. Somehow I always think of him too when I remember my boys. Thank you so much for remembering them. You are a very special young man with a loving heart that shows in your messages, especially for Danny. It's almost like you knew him. That means a lot to me. He was one of a kind.
I wish only the best for you now and in the new year to come.
Take care, Patricia

Hi Mike, Just wanted to thank you for letting me know that you read Danny's memorial. It means a lot to me. I left a message for Doug and a "cookie" for you. You are in my thoughts often. Hope you have a great and SAFE holiday.

All Howard memorials
Hello Mike
I am no longer adding cemetery stone photographs or memorials to Find A Grave. Anyone wanting me to transfer my memorials to them needs only to ask.
Please hit the EDIT button and request a transfer. My direct line memorials will be transferred to my two cousins.
So if you are interested in all my Howard memorials I will gladly transfer all to you.
I have decided helping others is not appreciated and I will no longer waste my time here on Find A Grave.
My time is better spent typing my families information into my Legacy family tree.
Thank you.

Hi Mike, just wanted to let you know that I now have Danny's memorial done. I hope you will get to read it sometimes. It was difficult to write but I felt his story needed to be told. Maybe will help some one else along the way.
Take care, Patricia
