I have a 2990WX cpu with CL14/ddr4-3200 memory (4 sticks) running on an MSI X399 Gaming Pro Carbon AC motherboard. I am an AMD newbie. I ran some AMD cpus decades ago.
My primary interest in running this cpu is to get maximum production of Seti@Home cpu tasks under Linux.
I am aware of the direct memory/2 hop memory issue.
I am currently using the MB builtin OverClock feature to run it at 3.7GHz with Cpu boost off (recommended for my app), Precision Overdrive on, XFR off and Quiet&Cool off.
My understanding is I now have the fastest recommended ram hardware and I believe I have it set to use the ram at full speed.
I am wondering if I would get "more production" if I was to drop the OC and go just with the regular Turbo boost features?
A previous test before I got my C14/3200 memory ran at about 3.3GHz.
I am currently running 60 cores out of 64. Other research I have read seems to indicate that 40 cores is about the sweet spot compute intensive production. I am testing to confirm that.
Thank you for your comments and suggestions.

Like I mentioned the other day, the Exocet gets a LOT of attention. Getting gas really takes some time. Motorcyclists in particular are always interested. They start conversations at lights and come over when you're stopped. My roommate's tea party happened on Sunday so I invited them all to take a ride. Marina (the one who jumps in quite hilariously in the video), really digs cars. She gets maximum points for knowing that my Fujiwara Tofu High Tops are an Initial D reference.
I've scored a two-seater experience in an Indycar for COTA this weekend, so here's to hoping they allow me to drop my GoPro on their mount!
When I get back, I'll be fixing the gasoline fountain.

Ugandan ragga and reggae artiste Bebe Cool is one of East Africa's household names, and though many don't know this, the singer started his musical career in Kenya, signed to Ogopa Deejays before he relocated to his home country.
Bebe Cool shocked fans when he recently called Kenyan artistes 'somehow lazy' because they don't put themselves out there or market themselves enough to promote their music, adding that there's talent but no exposure.
'They are LAZY,' Ugandan Singer Bebe Cool Claims That Kenyan Artistes Are NOT Aggressive Enough When It Comes To Music
The African Gal hitmaker then openly went on to confess that the only singer from Kenya he recognizes is top boy band Sauti Sol, who he's done a collaboration with, dubbed Mbozi Za Malwa.
Besides music, Bebe Cool is a family man who knows how to take care of his wife and children.
The singer is married to media personality and his longtime sweetheart Zuena Kirema, one of the most beautiful female celebrities in Uganda, and are still going strong through the spotlight.
How Sweet! Ugandan Singer Bebe Cool Says The Most Heart-Warming, Romantic Thing About His Wife
Zuena and Bebe Cool, real name, Moses Ssali have been married for 14 years and are blessed with five children, four sons, and one daughter, Beata Ssali.
Their last born child, Deen Ozil will be turning 2 years in November and there's no doubt this is one of the most loved and adorable celebrity families in Ugandan showbiz industry.
Zuena is currently running an events company and between her job and being a mother, the stunning woman has managed to keep herself in shape.
Looking at her one wouldn't believe she is a mother of five, as her figure and curves are on point, plus she has no pot belly.
Bebe Cool is one lucky man and to prove this, here are a few photos of the gorgeous lady.

From John Adams to William Cunningham, 14 February 1809
Quincy Feb 14 1809
Dear Sir
The complaint in your favour of the 11th, of the refusal to publish your Chathams, is no suprise to me. I have seen nothing in the four federal papers of Boston, for the last year, but such another prostitution, of genius, learning, and eloquence, as We read in Madam Drapers, Fleets, and mien, and Flemmings Papers in 1773 and 1774. A blind devotion to England and a disposition to sacrifice to her our rights, and a headlong inclination to go to war with France and for the sake of these blessings to hazard, if not sacrifice, the union and Constitution of the United States. Not one of these papers will publish a word inconsistent with that system. I agree with you in the system of armed neutrality at first. It will take time to try that experiment and time gained you know is precious. I had a letter to day from J Q A at Washington on the sixth of the month. He arrived in time for the session of the Supreme Court before which he has a good deal of better business than debating in Congress. If his talents and integrity continue to be neglected as they have been insulted it is not his fault and I have the consolation to know that it is more for his interest and the peace of his mind than any public office would be. If he were in the Senate of Massachusetts he could only labour in vain with his friend Mr Gray to prevent our legislature from overleaping the boundaries of our constitutions.
When John Wilks was writing one of his North Britons he said to one of his friends who came in suddenly upon him "I have been studying these four hours to see how near I could come in my next North Briton to treason without committing it. The deliberations and debates of our two houses appear to me to be somewhat like a hand study to come as near <
vtolating> violating the constitution without breaking it.
Our respectable metropolis is too warm, and it has communicated too much of its heat to some other places, which are too much under its influence. I inclose you a Frederick Town Herald of Jan 14th in which you may read a Phillipick of Mr John Hanson Dhansas, upon the City of Baltimore. What would be said, if such an oration were made in the Chronicle or in our house of Representatives concerning our modest City of Boston
I am Sir as usual

Trial opens in case of couple fatally rammed at red light
A Lynbrook couple shared their last moments stopped at a red light near their home before a motorist who was high on marijuana and driving his car "like it was a rocket ship" rammed their Toyota on Sunrise Highway and killed them last year, a prosecutor said Thursday.
But a lawyer for John Aniano, 27, told jurors as his client's aggravated vehicular homicide trial got underway in Nassau County Court that the tragedy of the victims' deaths didn't mean the Lynbrook man had committed any crimes.
"This was an accident and that's all it was," Garden City attorney Joseph Lo Piccolo said of the Jan. 12, 2015, crash near Forest Avenue in Lynbrook that claimed the lives of John Jones, 54, and Sharon Rene Long, 53.
Family of the victims said in interviews Thursday that while the couple never married, Jones and Long had been devoted companions for about 20 years and shared an apartment with their beloved pit bull mix. The wreck happened more than a decade after they had to bear the loss of a daughter who died in the womb before birth, according to relatives.
"They loved each other. They went through a lot together," said Long's sister, Pamela Duncan, 48, of East Orange, New Jersey.
She said the couple had been driving home from a grocery store when they died.
"The only peace is that they were together at that time," said Jones' sister, Jean Jones, 61, of Rockville Centre. "Because one couldn't live without the other."
Aniano, who's also on trial for charges including manslaughter and drug-impaired driving, faces up to 8 1⁄3 to 25 years in prison if the jury finds him guilty of the top count against him.
Nassau prosecutor Katie Zizza said in her opening statement he "created a nightmare" from behind the wheel of a 2004 Mercedes-Benz by driving westbound at a "racetrack speed" of 90 mph and higher on the night of the crash.
She said Aniano's marijuana impairment "fueled his desire to drive faster," and he blew past red lights before plowing into the back of the victims' 2005 Toyota Avalon while it was stopped at another light. The impact propelled the Toyota into oncoming traffic before it hit another car in an eastbound lane, according to authorities.
"He drove so fast, so recklessly, so dangerously, that death was inevitable," Zizza said.
She said while both Jones, who was driving, and Long, the passenger, also had marijuana in their blood, that didn't change that they were the victims in this case.
Aniano's father told Newsday after the crash that his son suffers from bipolar disorder and an incorrect medication dosage may have sparked an episode that caused the wreck.
Lo Piccolo told jurors Thursday police "made a rush to judgment" upon seeing Aniano's physical and cognitive condition after the crash, along with prescription pills in his car, and "immediately assumed DWI." He also said the presence of marijuana "doesn't indicate impairment" and asked the jury to evaluate the evidence with open minds.
Lo Piccolo said later in an interview that his client's mental health condition and medications he took, or didn't take, may have caused him to appear impaired, but any potential impairment was not from marijuana use.
"If someone has a medical condition and causes an accident, that doesn't make it a crime," he said.
Aniano told police soon after the crash that he "had a glass of wine and smoked marijuana," a felony complaint said.
An officer who responded to the scene said Aniano looked "disoriented" and "lethargic," and also told him "I took my meds" after a question about two prescription pill bottles in his car, according to court papers.
Police said Aniano also told them later at a hospital that he "only took the Seroquel," which is a prescription drug that treats bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.
Aniano — who remains jailed in lieu of $1 million bond — suffered a broken ankle and fractured vertebrae in the crash, according to his father.
The trial will continue Monday.

Aromatherapy Information
What Are Essentials Oils?
Essential oils are organic compounds Composed of plant sources and extracts from roots, bark, flowers and seeds; Complex chemical compounds and are not technically oils at all! They are extracted to capture the scented particles, leaving many other chemical constituents of the plant behind.
Aromatherapy is a complementary therapy that uses the application of essential oils to improve mental, physical, emotional and spiritual well-being. Oils can be applied in a variety of ways apart from massage.
How Aromatherapy works
Principally there are three aspects to aromatherapy;
1/ Skin absorption. Although from a medical perspective this is unproven.
2/ Inhalation - Evidence exists that essential oils are absorbed into the bloodstream when inhaled. Blood vessels in the lungs absorb the plant extracts and circulate them through the body. Our sense of smell connects to through the limbic system of the brain, which governs our memories, associations and emotions.
3/ Ingestion - We ingest oils in foodstuffs and pharmaceuticals where the essential oils are used as flavourings, for example in toothpaste, chewing gums, flavoured drinks and mouthwashes. THIS METHOD SHOULD ONLY BE USED IF PRESCRIBED BY A MEDICAL HERBALIST.
How to use Essential Oils.
1. Using essential oils in the bath can be a very effective way of adjusting mood. Add essential oils to a spoon or two of oil or soap solution and add it to the bath.
Dosage: up to 5 drops in 2 teaspoons of oil or soap solution, or directly to the water.
Caution - Some oils can sting. Lemon, orange, grapefruit, aniseed, camphor, clove, eucalyptus, ginger, juniper, black pepper, peppermint, sage, savory, spearmint, and thyme should be used in very small dosages - no more than 1 drops to a bath. Alternatively, you can apply a massage blend to the body, then sit in a warm bath for a while.
2. Oil Burner To avoid any danger of skin irritation many prefer to use an Oil Burner which can fill the room with the essence. This allows the inhalation method to be used safely by novices. The effect can be less beneficial, however certainly safe.
3. Body massage
Dosage: up to 6 drops in 10-15ml (2-3 teaspoons) of carrier oil or lotion.
Other method exist and are used by accomplished practioneers of aromatherapy.
Dosages for adults and children
Always refer to the dosage table and safety chart when selecting, and using essential oil.
PURPOSE OF BLEND DROPS of ESSENTIAL OIL CARRIER Oil
Facial massage/skincare 1-3 5m(1 tsp.)
General massage 5-10 15m(3 tsp.)
Localised areas max. 20 10m(2 tsp.)
Baths/footbaths max. 5 Bath Water

We are not planning on bringing this item back currently, but we'll let you know if that changes!
We'll let you know as soon as the item is back in stock!
The hat without fear?
Absolutely. After a terrible accident involving irradiated chemicals and unprotected eye-bits, an ordinary hat was rendered blind, but bestowed with magnified senses and superior spatial awareness.
(And I'm aware hats are mostly eyeless. You can either humor me, or head directly to the bullet points below.)
After witnessing the death of its father-cap and enduring Stick-hat's heartless training regimen, this mild-mannered hat put down the law books and became the Daredevil Symbol 59Fifty Hat, also known as "The Devil-hat of Hell's Kitchen."
Made from 100% wool, this EXCLUSIVE, especially comfortable Daredevil cap from New Era features an elevated and embroidered Daredevil symbol in all its 'twin-D' glory.
The official New Era sticker? It's right there, resting soundly on top of the flat bill.
And the back? Lighter, embroidered text denoting Daredevil's empowering litany: "WITHOUT FEAR."
More dependable characteristics of this high quality New Era Hat:
- The New Era logo resting on the hat's right side.
- The stitched taping crisscrossing the hat's interior.
- The official New Era tag, also inside the hat!
- This fitted 59Fifty hat is available in specific sizes for specific head shapes!

Reviews of Daredevil Symbol 59Fifty Hat
I collect New Era 59Fifty fitted caps and this one is great - well designed, solid construction (high brim), 3-D embroidery "DD" on front and "Without Fear" stitched on the back. The maroon/dark red and bright red DD on the front stand out; it's a great conversation starter for fans of the Man without Fear! I expect to start seeing more people wear Daredevil stuff once Daredevil gets his own Netflix series!
you need it
I'm not normally one to buy superhero related hats as I normally hate the cheesiness factor that comes along with how it's designed. The simplicity in this hat his perfect. Fits like a charm and even Matt Murdock could see that this hat is to legit to quit
London Ontario Canada
Hat was great, but had to exchange it for a smaller size. No fault of superhero stuff though, should of payed more attention to the sizing.
Bay Area, CA
Great quality as you'd expect from New Era. Logo is subtle, not too gaudy and the "without fear" quote on the back is a nice touch. #FoggyForPresident

Spirit of Adventure
Baby Carrier
When I was younger I thought that being adventurous was about travel and experiencing the world, which I did. Then I fell in love and settled down and had a baby. I thought that the adventures might be over but I was wrong, becoming a parent was the biggest adventure to come.
Carrying my daughter meant that I could still see and do so many things and she could experience it all with me. I hope I have passed this spirit onto both my daughters and although now they are too big to be carried the Adventure of being a family, seeing the world and discovering so many new things together is still in it's infancy.
Share the Spirit of Adventure with your baby and enjoy your journey together.

The Internet Has Turned On The Man Who Went Viral For Praising His 'Curvy' Wife
ICYMI, Robbie Tripp (@tripp) went viral last week with an upload of an Instagram praising his "curvy" partner.
|| I love this woman and her curvy body. As a teenager, I was often teased by my friends for my attraction to girls on the thicker side, ones who were shorter and curvier, girls that the average (basic) bro might refer to as "chubby" or even "fat." Then, as I became a man and started to educate myself on issues such as feminism and how the media marginalizes women by portraying a very narrow and very specific standard of beauty (thin, tall, lean) I realized how many men have bought into that lie. For me, there is nothing sexier than this woman right here: thick thighs, big booty, cute little side roll, etc. Her shape and size won't be the one featured on the cover of Cosmopolitan but it's the one featured in my life and in my heart. There's nothing sexier to me than a woman who is both curvy and confident; this gorgeous girl I married fills out every inch of her jeans and is still the most beautiful one in the room. Guys, rethink what society has told you that you should desire. A real woman is not a porn star or a bikini mannequin or a movie character. She's real. She has beautiful stretch marks on her hips and cute little dimples on her booty. Girls, don't ever fool yourself by thinking you have to fit a certain mold to be loved and appreciated. There is a guy out there who is going to celebrate you for exactly who you are, someone who will love you like I love my Sarah. || photo cred: @kaileehjudd
What was initially well-received as a message of body-positivity and challenging of traditional forms of beauty, has now quickly turned into criticism.
Many people, including plus-size model Tess Holliday, have called him out for thinking he deserves praise for "doing the bare minimum". Check out her insta-post below:
But she's not the only one on the internet calling him out, check out some of these tweets:

CHICAGO (CBS.MW) -- Options investors gave Cisco shares their endorsement this week, placing bets the stock will hold above $20 for at least the near term.
Ahead of the networking giant's after-the-bell earnings results Wednesday, put volume swelled to 67,000, with sales of the November $20 puts the prominent trade. A put is the option to sell the underlying stock.
"Obviously the put sellers were right in Cisco," said Jon Najarian, an analyst at PTI Securities and Futures, after the earnings results. "The November 20 puts have fallen to no bid and the November 22.5 puts have lost 68 percent of their value, falling to just $0.40 as the underlying [stock] gained."
Shares closed Thursday up $1.10 at $22.90. The stock led Nasdaq volume on Thursday.
Some stock analysts still consider the shares a "hold," while the stock was raised to "outperform" by U.S. Bancorp. Read an outlook.
Meanwhile, Bristol Myers
The company "is joining a recent trend that we have been observing of [drug company] names seeing heavy call activity. Despite this sector's recent weak performance, components have seen steady call activity over the last two weeks," said analysts at Schaeffer's Research.
The bulk of the activity came in the exercise of the at-the-money November 25 call. A call is the option to buy the underlying stock. Shares closed up 1 percent at $25.26.
The 25 call strike marked "almost the entire 17,000 open interest contracts, which tells me the shorts are scrambling for cover," added Najarian.
Record volume
Credit increased investor education, October's reputation as a volatile stock month and year-plus peaks for stock averages. Equity options volume and open interest are on track to close out record-setting years, according to the Options Industry Council.
The group said this week that October's month-end volume of more than 88.4 million contracts -- 34.5 million puts and 53.9 million calls -- was a high-water mark that beat the previous record of about 75.5 million contracts set in July 2002. Volume was nearly 26 percent above October of last year.
"I've always said options don't have a soul of their own," said Paul Stevens, OIC president, in describing how the recent bull-run for the stock market has fed the growing demand for options both as a means to protect the underlying stock position and as investments in their own right.
Increased traffic on his association's Web site, for online classes and at seminars also tell Stevens that average investors are growing more comfortable with options.
"I think every stock investor owes it to themselves to at least learn about options," he said.
The Options Industry Council is the joint effort of the American Stock Exchange, the Chicago Board Options Exchange, the International Securities Exchange, the Pacific Exchange, the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and The Options Clearing Corporation to educate investors and the exchanges and the markets as well as to field strategy questions.
Because investors tend to be more active buyers and sellers in general during bull periods, options market activity also picks up.
Year-to-date equity options volume is 677.4 contracts vs. 602.4 million contracts during the same period in 2002, a 12.45 percent increase.
The OIC predicts it's about 40 million contracts shy of making 2003 the busiest trading year on record, a feat that is likely to be sealed over the next few weeks should recent patterns continue.
October's average daily equity options volume of 3.85 million contracts unseated June 2003 as the previous record holder with a daily average of 3.59 million contracts. The daily average in October was more than 25 percent greater than October 2002.
October month-end equity open interest surpassed September's then-record 116 million contracts to hit a record 121.3 million contracts. That level tops October 2002 month-end equity open interest by 30.56 percent. Open interest tallies outstanding options contracts.

Although we will see same engines in the offer you, we count on enhancements regarding energy and economy.

Time discounting research investigates differences in the relative valuation placed on rewards (usually money or goods) at different points in time by comparing its valuation at an earlier date with one for a later date (Frederick et al., 2002). Evidence shows that present rewards are weighted more heavily than future ones. Once rewards are very distant in time, they cease to be valuable. Delay discounting can be explained by impulsivity and a tendency for immediate gratification (see self-control), and it is particularly evident for addictions such as nicotine (Bickel et al., 1999).
Hyperbolic discounting theory suggests that discounting is not time-consistent; it is neither linear nor occurs at a constant rate. It is usually studied by asking people questions such as "Would you rather receive £100 today or £120 a month from today?" or "Would you rather receive £100 a year from today or £120 a year and one month from today?" Results show that people are happier to wait an extra month for a larger reward when it is in the distant future. In hyperbolic discounting, values placed on rewards decrease very rapidly for small delay periods and then fall more slowly for longer delays (Laibson, 1997). (See also present bias.)
Research has shown different ways to reduce discounting, such as primed future focus (Sheffer et al., 2016), mental simulation of future experiences (e.g. Stein et al., 2016), and interactions with visual representations of one's future self (Hershfield et al., 2011).

Judul : Blindsided

Blindsidedmy rhetoric is like everything it's not.
it's palpable, moldable... hell, maybe edible.
but if I seem to be on the search for it,
can you take the bits i have,
and use it to spread my thoughts
like love that can't be contained?
i was blindsided by fear when i was a child
and i haven't taken kindly to words
even now, my thoughts linger
on the edge of my tongue,
pondering, thinking,
"do i jump? do i want
to become sound?"
the temptation to take the leap
lingers until it starts to fret,
then fret turns to fleet
until process repeats itself again
Demikianlah Artikel Blindsided

Dar Al Wadi gets wired
The Real Estate Investment Company is installing a high-speed cabling infrastructure for its Dar Al Wadi project, a 35-floor commercial complex with shopping mall in Kuwait City. The implementation, running in parallel to the construction will provide tenants with high-speed internet, gigabit ethernet, wireless access and IP telephony.
The Real Estate Investment Company is installing a high-speed cabling infrastructure for its Dar Al Wadi project, a 35-floor commercial complex with shopping mall in the Al Sharq area of Kuwait City.
The implementation, running in parallel to the construction of the building, will provide tenants with advanced services such as high-speed internet connectivity, wireless access and IP telephony.
"Once the project is complete, the Dar Al Wadi complex will be one of the most advanced office and commercial buildings throughout the country," claims Jamal Al Sayyed of Real Estate Investment Company.
Managed by Systimax' Kuwaiti business partner, Gulf Systems, the project is currently in its planning stage, with the implementation of all the copper and fibre cabling planned to end by April 2005.
The cabling spread across 5,000 points is based on the Giga Speed XL copper solution, which reduces downtime on desktop systems and supports bandwidth-intensive applications, while the Lazr Speed fibre offers 10 Gb/s transmissions at distances up to 300 meters and the Tera Speed solution, handles the enterprise backbone.
Once completed, the technology backbone will support traditional services such as telephone lines, as well as advanced services such as IP Telephony and IP convergence including data and video, security, CCTV security and access controls that will be placed throughout the building.
"Most office facilities in Kuwait require the tenants to install their own cabling systems, whereas Dar Al Wadi's pre-installed copper cabling system will allow tenants the luxury of connecting to the network over a one Gb/s Ethernet connection by simply plugging in their equipment to the existing infrastructure," explains Mohammed Azeem, managing director, Gulf Systems.
Businesses renting office space at the Dar Al Wadi complex will benefit from ISDN class services such as caller-ID, DID (Direct Inward Dialling) and other telephony features offered by ISDN. The building is linked to the internet via a fibre optic cable to providing high-speed access to all the tenants.
A fibre link between the building and Kuwait's ministry of communications will connect the building to the information superhighway and allow tenants to connect to other locations using this same fibre optic cable. If a bank decided to open up a branch at the Dar Al Wadi office complex, for example, it will be able to connect to its headquarter offices through the fibre cable.
The framework that will be put in place will give tenants the option to choose on a connection between their offices and Kuwait's City of Exchange Tower or a direct connection with the building's existing infrastructure.
Gulf Systems will be installing a wireless network across the building, which will enable people to surf the internet from anywhere in the building complex. Additionally, tenants can use the Dar Al Wadi business centre for high-speed internet connection and video conferencing.
The company has set plans to expand its services to other areas in the future, such as offering e-mail services and web hosting for its tenants. The infrastructure will also allow it to provide a payment gateway where tenants will be able to set up their own e-business portals that will be hosted and managed by the building.

CD: It Leads to Poverty
ARTIST: Legbone
We're such big fans of the Dayton, Ohio-based punk rock outfit Legbone that, despite them being huge Buckeye fans, apparently, we just have to review their new 10-song CD It Leads to Poverty. And in case any WVU fans were looking for an "enemy of my enemy" type reason to love Legbone -- don't worry, they've got one.
So yeah, we've had Legbone's last two CDs, Different Path and the now 10-year old Natural Light-themed Beer:30 CD. Different Path is one of our favorite punk CDs of all time, what with its 15 songs worth of of gnarly, high-energy skate punk -- seemingly merging the tempo and tone of Pennywise, with the irreverent, party-or-die lyrics of NOFX.
But for the dudes in Legbone (Mitch Lawson: guitar/vocals; Kyle Curtis: vocals; AJ Morse: guitar/vocals; Gee Gee Bradley: bass/vocals; and Kevin Hittepool: drums) -- together in various incarnations since 1991 -- this ain't no Hollywood set; life is real.
The guys are getting older, lazier, having hygiene problems, (still) getting drunk, falling behind on their bills and, having signed with a management company a couple of years ago, they're now back to the DIY style synonymous with punk. It Leads to Poverty, despite having five fewer songs, is a super-solid follow-up to Different Path -- these guys are still too punk for metal and way too metal for their version of hardcore punk. Screw those guys at the management company!
While there's the standard hilarity and hijinks you've come to expect out of Legbone, there are glimpses of conscious punk (as opposed to gangster punk) in the lyrics.
"Think" is the opening anti-mainstream media punk rock tirade. Brainwashed? Give this song a listen. "California Screamin'" has the band seeking warmer climates, while bemoaning the millions of people dying in the streets. The best song, the instant punk rock classic "Pains" opens with a slow tom roll and verse before going into the catchy, anthemic punk rock:
"I got pains, and when I drink they go away."Aladin" has Legbone getting three wishes, and using them to quit their jobs and write killer punk rock songs. Wishes well spent. "PGUT" has the dudes going on a date, to a punk show, naturally, with an alcoholic; works out well for them, sounds like. "17 Days" has the band forgoing drinking, concentrating on recording or Colonel Mitch will kick them in the ass.
I got things on my mind and my life is fucked up.
Every day's the same."
The not so subtly titled bonus track "Tom Petty" is really Legbone's cover of "Runnin' Down a Dream," ably done in punk rock fashion. Who said Tom Petty was irrelevant? Not us, 'twas some tool writing for Yahoo about his Super Bowl halftime appearance.
And for those WVU fans who are still pissed over Rich Rod's abrupt departure after the Pitt loss in 2007, there's Legbone's ode to the Buckeyes, the anti-Michigan polemic "Let's Go Bucks" -- but make no mistake, after everything they say about the Wolverines and their cheerleaders, this song will never be played over the PA at the Horseshoe, and the guys in Legbone would fit in just fine in the student section at, say, a WVU-Ohio State game.
It Leads to Poverty, recorded at Refraze Studios in Dayton, like Different Path, has a full, deep, well produced sound. Hopefully with this release, the band will sell all the copies they can, and shoot straight outta poverty into punk rock diva status. Even though they're from Ohio, we love Legbone.

If you are wondering what's happening around here, yep, it's me, just trying to kick this blog back off with catching up on ALL THE THINGS since I've been gone. So now I am posting Noelle's first real Spring Break back in March! We wanted to do something but knew it wouldn't be a big trip because we were headed for a cruise soon. So we decided to head up to South Dakota which was only a 6 hour drive from Denver. We figured we had to see Mount Rushmore sense we lived this close. Never would we ever be moving closer! First road trip as a family of 5!!
It was a little colder than we would have liked but it was perfect because the place was practically
empty. We didn't have to wait in line to see it or to take pictures. The only bad part about coming out of season is that there were so many other sites we couldn't visit because it wasn't quite warm enough.
Lois with the "no pictures please" pose.
After we went and saw the mount, there was not much else to do, due to the seasonal closures. We set off for a nature ride that seemed to go on forever and a day but there was some excitement on the other end.
So, remember that one time when we got chased by a Bison!
You ever look up and you're shocked by how many kids you have?
Hotel pool fun.
We got up the next day and before heading back to Denver we hit Reptile World and again, not all the attractions were open but it was cool enough.

I am sooooo naive! I never heard of this although I think it's kind of hilarious. I cannot imagine that "your date will be delighted," but then I've been married for so long, what do I know about dating? Clearly not much.ReplyDelete
In thinking about it, however, the unwashed "surprise" in the popcorn might add a tangy touch to flavor. I'm just sayin........

Oh, I sure laughed at this. When you mentioned the non washing of the penis. Hahahaha, sorry.ReplyDelete
I can only imagine the date running out of the cinema screaming that is what I would have done. Uhm I think I would rather have dull unflavoured popcorn than that flavouring ha ha.ReplyDelete
I must NOT read your blog at work...ReplyDelete
I must NOT read your blog at work...
I was just going thru some the older posts, and OMG...I literally hollered laughing....
Thank you Jules. I am so thrilled that I made you laugh.ReplyDelete

I didn't think I would be talking about Skyrim in 2019, but I am. Skyrim is my favorite game of all time so I always love when I get the chance to write about it. Modding Skyrim has been amazing and has taught me some useful skills that I've put to work in some of my own created mods. Ultimate Skyrim is a compilation of mods. Over 200 of them (probably closer to 300) and it's a bit controversial. Here's what I think of it.
Mod authors are kind of angry right now and for a pretty good reason in my opinion. Their work is being taken, used, and being profitable by someone else. There's a tool that lets you download groups of mods on Skyrim called Automaton. Automaton takes the busy work out of modding by doing it for you. If you're new to modding or are just looking to download some of your favorite mods without having to do the work and install them all yourself this could be a useful tool to have… if it was shrouded in controversy. I've been playing Skyrim on and off since 2011. I started on the PS3 and migrated to PC many years later. I've grown accustomed to searching and downloading my own mods so this tool is utterly useless to me. Even if I was interested in it I wouldn't support it. Why? Because I don't like the tactics that the creator has used to make money from it. When you break it down and think about it the only reason why people are supporting his patreon page is because it allows them to mod Skyrim easier. Mods that aren't made by him, but are in this mod that he's advertising.
It's not illegal, but it is shady as hell in my opinion. His patreon is currently sitting at 458 patrons and he's earning over $2,300 a month. I understand why mod authors are upset about this. They're so mad that they're threatening to pull their mods from the Nexus so nobody can use them.
So why is this patreon account making so much money? Because the only way to use the program (until just recently) was to pledge at least $5 so you could use Automaton and download all of the mods in a bundle so you wouldn't have to do it manually. All this person did was choose their favorite mods on the Nexus, group them up together in one large package, and sale it to Skyrim gamers. Now, I'll give credit where its due and say that, yes, they did create this program, but I highly doubt that you would be making anywhere near the amount of money a month on patreon if you were honest and didn't have any of those mods (you know, the ones you didn't create) in your bundle. There's not much the mod authors can do except watch you make a killing on their hard work. And I'm sure you did work hard creating this program, but it's a program that I have no use for and don't plan on supporting or giving positive feedback on.
I learned about this from my friend, Steve. He just completed Skyrim and he loved it so much that he wanted to play it again but with mods this time around. So he called me because I'm pretty much a master at modding now. He wanted to know what I thought of this mod and I told him I'll look into it. Steve, I will help you mod your game. If I have to go over to your house and do it myself I will. Don't download this shit. I'll get you whatever mod you want and I know you read my content here :).
Back to business. Automaton sounds really good on paper. It really does. A tool that lets us group mods together and downloads them all at the same time, but it comes with a paywall and with the way things are looking Skyrim's modding community is about to get a little smaller because some mod authors have already removed some of their mods from the Nexus. I've been thinking about firing up Skyrim again and, thankfully, I use Special Edition. This mod isn't there yet. Now, when it gets there I expect the same backlash that it's getting now. Don't support this shit. It's unethical and downright shady. It's not illegal, but that doesn't make this right. Mod authors work really hard to create content for us to enjoy. The least this asshole could do is give back to them and by giving back I don't mean donate 5% of your $2,000+ you get every month to Nexus Mods. You should give a percentage of what you make to the people that did the work and is the reason for your shit program existing in the first place.
There are a LOT of mods in this package. And many of them are fantastic mods that you can get with a simple search on the Nexus. You don't have to pay $5 to access the download features on Nexus or $10 (or $25) to get some stupid looking icons on Discord or chat with the creator. No conversation is worth $25 in my opinion. So what exactly is Ultimate Skyrim? Ultimate Skyrim makes Skyrim harsher by adding survival elements to the game. Shit like permadeath, eating, sleeping, and all that boring shit that's in other survival games. Why anyone would want that in Skyrim confuses me, but if that's what you like go ahead and download all of the mods on that list and support this shit. Ultimate Skyrim does more than add survival mechanics to the game. It also overhauls the gameplay with Requiem, overhauls the A.I of the enemies you fight in battle, and make one on one encounters dangerous because if you die it's literally game over. Your character will be dead for good. There's texture mods, gameplay mods, perk tree overhaul (Requiem), and much, much more here, but I would rather tailor Skyrim for MY own personal enjoyment and not get everything that's listed here. If you're new to modding this might seem like a great place to start, but it isn't. Do you really want permadeath in Skyrim? Seriously ask yourself that question before you decide to download this mod. Or just watch a Twitch streamer play and decide if it's for you. As for me, I'm not supporting this and I'll probably end up talking about this on the next episode of Pete's Corner.

Exactly what are the taste and smell sensory systems? And how might difficulties processing taste or smell impact upon my child's areas of difficulty?
The taste & smell systems explained
The taste and smell sensory systems work together to detect chemicals in the air and in food. This detection turns into the perception of a food, a drink or the environment – it tells us whether food is appropriate to eat, and whether the environment is a safe one.
Processing the sensory input of taste and smell requires the brain and nervous system to register and perceive information. This results in a physical and emotional response (SPD Australia n.d). The taste and smell sensory systems must be balanced in order to elicit an appropriate response and correctly enhance the perception of the food.
Taste buds on the tongue, at the back of the mouth and on the palate detect chemicals such as sugars, salts and acids in food (Brain Facts 2012). This stimulates nerve fibres and sends impulses along the cranial nerve to the brain stem. The impulses move through to the thalamus and cerebral cortex of the brain, giving rise to the perception of the taste.
Specialised sensory neurons in the nose detect odour molecules. These molecules stimulate nerve cells and send this information to olfactory bulbs in the frontal lobe of the brain where thoughts emerge (Brain Facts 2012). The information also moves into the limbic system which is responsible for emotion, behaviour and memory retention. It is through smell that flavour is primarily identified.
When the taste & smell systems malfunction
When taste or odour receptors are not detecting information effectively, difficulty in responding to sensory input arises in the form of inaccurate perceptions (Brain Facts 2012).
Sensory input may be perceived as too little (under-registration) or too much (hyper-sensitivity). These sensitivities may cause a child to become overwhelmed during meal time or other interactions, for example social events.
Sensory hyper-sensitivity frequently results in 'fight, flight or freeze' responses and a heightened state of arousal. Children in a heightened state of arousal may appear to react emotionally to sensations, or may refuse to engage in, or avoid, interacting in new experiences (Dunn 2014). A child with under-registration may observe to crave certain foods or tastes or fail to notice odours that others usually complain about (Dunn 2014).
A recent study indicated that children with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) experience significantly more feeding problems than their peers due to sensory processing differences (Sharp, Berry, McCracken et al. 2013)
Recognising taste & smell processing difficulties in children
Children with difficulties processing taste and smell input often have difficulties with feeding. As a result they may present as picky eaters with a limited diet.
This table describes children's behaviour when under-registration or hyper-sensitivity to taste and smell input are present:
|A child under-registering taste input may:
|A child under-registering smell input may:
|A child overly sensitive to taste input may:
|A child overly sensitive to smell input may:
(Dunn 2014)
Using occupational therapy to improve taste & smell processing
If your child is experiencing feeding challenges or problem eating, this can be addressed through the systematic desensitisation feeding program.
Therapy begins with an initial assessment to clarify your child's challenges and identify their unique sensory profile. A therapy program is then developed based on the child and family goals and the skills and challenges to be worked on that were identified through the assessment.
The feeding program breaks down the steps involved in eating, gradually exposing your child to each step. It begins with tolerating the visual of food, then the smell, then progresses into tactile play, oral play and eating.
The program uses typical developmental steps in feeding to create a hierarchy of skills and behaviours necessary for your child to progress with eating various tastes and textures. It integrates oral-motor skills, behavioural and learning approaches, sensory processing and nutritional factors.
Home based activities to support development of taste & smell processing
There are plenty of ways that you can support the development of your child's sensory processing of taste and smell input at home. These include:
- Creating a safe, trustworthy relationship and experience during mealtime
- Allowing for food exploration and for a mess to occur
- Providing exposure to a variety of tastes (sweet/sour/spicy/savoury) and smells, both indoor and outdoor (like the park, beach, shopping mall, and food court)
- Building into mealtimes a predictable routine with preparatory activities, like breathing, oral-motor exercises, and physical games providing deep pressure sensations
- Cooking and food play
- Craft activities using scented materials like stickers, rubbers, pencils, and crayons

Indian warehouse specialist IndoSpace has raised US$580m in the final closing of its IndoSpace Logistic Parks III fund, the largest logistics property fund raised in India to date.
The fund will have more than $1.2bn of investment firepower to develop and acquire industrial and logistics‐related real estate across India, according to a statement from GLP, IndoSpace's joint venture partner.
"The successful fund raise of ILP III reflects the confidence institutional investors have in us and we look forward to working closely with IndoSpace to capitalise on the early growth stages of India's rapidly modernising logistics landscape," said GLP co-founder and CEO Ming Mei.
IndoSpace has 30 industrial and logistics parks across the country, totalling about 2.8m sq.m. of warehouse space either completed or under construction.
GLP expanded into the Indian market in September this year after establishing a strategic joint venture with IndoSpace.
The JV agreement will see GLP partner with IndoSpace to develop logistics parks in the country, as well as co-invest in the local player's investment vehicles.
GLP has committed more than $3.2bn to building out a pipeline of over 11m sq.m. of modern logistics infrastructure in India, where favourable government policy, economic expansion and the growth in retail and e-commerce are driving demand for warehouse space.
