Haskell is a purely functional programming language. In imperative languages you get things done by giving the computer a sequence of tasks and then it executes them. While executing them, it can change state. For instance, you set variable a to 5 and then do some stuff and then set it to something else.

What do you guys want to see in killstreaks? I don't want to see as many killstreaks as there are in MW3 and I don't want to see killstreaks that will promote camping or take time away from your gun on gun gameplay(ex. AC130, Reaper, Chopper Gunner, etc.) They did a good job in Black Ops with it, and I'm hoping they don't stack so that way people don't sit in a corner when they get their Harriers like in Mw2 or helicopter in Mw3. I know they probably won't, but so many things are wrong in Mw3 it makes me worry.

Warning: political opinions ahead.
I want to talk today about sexism. I don't usually get into this very much; not that I don't think it's important, but more because once you establish yourself as a feminist, there seems to be a bit of an expectation that you're going to be active and vocal about it. I am perfectly happy to be active and vocal occasionally, but to be honest, constant outrage is just so exhausting. But some of the things I've been reading lately have really got my goat.
For example, did you know that I'm considered a "mummy blogger"? This isn't because my blog is focused on my family, because, if you've read any of it, you'll know that's not the case. No, it's because I'm a woman and I blog. Apparently the fact that I have children isn't even relevant, I would still be called a mummy blogger, if you believe this article. And this bothers me, not only because I'm being stereotyped based solely on my gender, despite any other evidence that doesn't support the hypothesis.
The thing about "mummy bloggers" is that, by their very nature, they are not taken seriously. Our society doesn't value the domestic, attaching social value only to things outside the home. Everything that happens inside, it seems, is only useful because it facilitates the external, the professional, aspect of our lives. And the implication with "mummy bloggers" is that they only exist within the domestic sphere, and therefore anything they have to say about anything isn't worth listening to. What would they know? They're just mummies.
Naturally, "daddy bloggers" is a phrase that has yet to find a home, probably because men are not defined by their familial status. Listen to missing person descriptions and you'll hear women described as mothers or grandmothers; men are listed as lawyers or landscape gardeners. But that's not even what I'm annoyed about, despite the fact that this sexism is still rife within western culture. (I'm not even going to mention other cultures, no matter how much parts of them horrify me. That's another fight for another day.) No, what I'm annoyed about is the fact that there seems to be this tacit acceptance of it all; that this is all there is, and as far as we're going to get. And we should be happy with that.
Of course, here in Australia it's not nearly as bad as the US. When did birth control get controversial again? I thought we had fought those battles forty years ago, and can't see why they have to be fought again. Why is "feminism" suddenly a dirty word again? Right-wing media types revel in calling any woman who stands up for her rights a "feminazi", and get applauded for it. Again, in the US, a Republican governor quietly repeals equal pay legislation with the argument that "it's happening anyway, so why bother keeping the law on the books?" Why indeed? To paraphrase Stephen Colbert, everyone drives on the right anyway, so why bother keeping the law that requires that on the books? The whole thing is ridiculous.
Closer to home, one of my previous guest bloggers, Holly Kench, wrote a post on her own site about her internal battles about whether she should call herself a feminist. Holly recognised that not everyone saw feminism in the same light as she did, and was wary about alienating people, but it's an important part of her identity so she kept the word. For the record, this is how she defines feminism (quoted from the post linked to above):
Seeing that there are imbalances in community, societal and cultural values, and wanting to do something about them.
Refusing the suggestion that any one person has a right to control any other person's body, identity, or mind, or what that person chooses to do with their body, identity, or mind.
Believing that everyone's choices and views are their own.
Accepting that everyone is different, and celebrating that fact.
That's something to be proud of, right? At least, I would think so. But then again, the second point would probably have some people up in arms and calling her a "feminazi", because her world view doesn't match their own. Sigh. Feminism has even become such a reviled term in some quarters that perfectly sane, logically-minded women avoid organisations that promote women's rights.
There are a number of high-profile people who label themselves feminists, and who actively lead the fight, who I admire deeply. Tara Moss, the former model and now best selling fiction author, is someone who never misses an opportunity to educate people and get the message out there. I admire that, I really do. But doing it all the time really wears you out.
I don't want to be up in arms about the labelling of women's writing, women's fiction and what women read. I don't want to rebel against the term "chick lit" despite how un-professional it sounds as a genre and how derided it is by other (particularly male) authors. I don't want to be fighting for validation as an author simply because what I write is designed to appeal to 51% of the population. I also don't want to live in a society where any labels used primarily for women seem to be derogatory and undervalued. But the fact remains, despite what I want, I think I will have to. The world simply hasn't caught up yet.

Hi Fellow Blogger,
Please don't think of this as an intrusion but as a blogger myself I know that something we all need is subscribers. Walt Bayliss has created a program that gives you a Fre*e Blog as well as 200 Fre*e Subscribers to start out.It is well worth checking out as it will only reinforce what you are already doing.
Have a Great day,
Gary Walsh
Hi Silversnowball,
I should probably begin by advising my readers not to take the same route you have by beginning a spam campaign. Spammers are blacklisted, and the conversion rate is easily under .01%. Such shameful methods for a modest return are not worth your time, nor the sacrifice of your reputation.
With that out of the way, this piece of spam brings about a topic worth talking about: automated tools or paid services to gain subscribers. While you'll probably note some short-term success if you decide to use either of these, the problem is that you're not going to retain the vast majority of those people. Worse yet, once your blog or website is labeled a spam trap…it sticks. And because you don't want to have your (real) name attached to any campaign like that, you are building absolutely zero personal brand equity. The advantage of gaining readers organically is that you build relationships, and therefore loyalty, along the way. Commenting on blogs that you are genuinely interested in, adding helpful tips to related forums, taking the initiative on Q&A sites, these are all ways to organically meet people with similar interests and gain new readers, while at the same time solidifying your public reputation. The best part of this method? Because you're doing things honestly and not paying someone to send out spam for you, you'll actually enjoy doing it.
Thanks for your question!

The Air Force, citing ongoing fiscal concerns, is putting off a cyber and space conference that was set for next month.
The Cyber and Space Industry/Government Summit, which was previously scheduled for March 5th and 6th in Colorado Springs, Colo., "has been postponed until current federal budget uncertainties are resolved," the service noted in a FedBizOpps posting. "It is anticipated that the summit will be held in the May/June 2013 timeframe; exact dates to be determined."
Hosted by the Defense Business Initiative Tiger Team, the summit's theme is "Addressing Acquisition Issues/Filling The Pipeline," according to DBI's conference website, which notes that this is the first year of the event. The posted agenda does not identify any planned speakers.

Thread: Easy Access Card...DLRP
Easy Access Card...DLRP
Just back from DLRP and there have been some changes to the Guest Assistance system.
There are now two forms, one green and one blue. They are called Easy Access Cards and are available from City Hall in Disneyland Park or Guest Services at the Studios. You no longer need one for each park which was a sensible idea. Proof of disability is required so please take something with you. We had blue badge and GP letter.
We were given a blue card as we honestly answered 'no' to the million dollar question 'could DS walk unaided for 10 minutes?'
The reverse of the cards are different and tell you and CM what rides you are able to access. To our annoyance this meant we could not do Peter Pan and the new Crush Coaster.
We got chatting to a family from Belgium whose DD was totally wheelchair bound and had the green card which meant she could access these rides even though she had to be carried onto them where DS could walk from his wheelchair easily. The parents said they had seen lots of severely disabled children on Peter Pan so I was annoyed to say the least. They said people just lie to the question
We went back to City Hall to enquire but they were adamant and would not let us change passes . DS loves Peter Pan and we had to keep telling him it was closed.Last edited by Debbie2; 04-08-2008 at 03:28 PM.

Stroll through the diverse array of sculptures in the Broomhill gardens to the hotel, partly obscured by trees (and a giant red stilleto) for a cream tea. The jam is fruity and not too sweet, the cream piled high and the scones mountainous. One of those times in life where the food, the location and the company combine to make something much more than the sum of its parts.

Every winter season, pet-owners are starting to buy things that would make their pets warm and cozy. These winter materials are very important especially for dogs. You really need to keep them warm because cold season can be dangerous for them. And, there are a lot of winter materials that you can provide to your dog, and here are some examples:
- A/C dog units – which can keep your dog body temperature at fair level or keep your dog warm
- Dog's winter outfits – colorful sweater and jacket are very attractive during winter season. They come with different styles and sizes and they are made up with a good quality of cloths, such as knits, cottons, twills and also swindle. Choose outfits that would make your pet warmer.
- Booties – have your dog wear boots. This will protect the feet, especially their paws from freezing which causes irritation.
- Clean – up – brushing is essential during cold season. You should also trim your dog's fur in the toes and belly.
- Proper food – feed them with additional food. This is another way to keep his body warm.
- Beddings – provide them with comforter or blanket that is also specifically created for winter season. This will give them cozier and warmer feeling.
- Heating pads – this is also important if your dog just want to lie down. This is also portable which you can carry anywhere, any time.
These are some of the things that you can give to your pet during the winter. By providing these winter materials, you are assured that your dog will be in a good condition for the rest of the winter months. Make sure to put safety first before the outfit's style. Your pet will be grateful to you for you have given him the sign of comfort and love.

• Prematurity/low birth weight (prematurity is the No. 1 cause of infant death)
• Congenital anomalies
• Sudden infant death syndrome
These abnormalities are distributed differently across demographics, especially varying across race brackets.A media furor has erupted over a "newly released" letter to Pope Paul VI that indicates he and the Vatican knew about child sexual abuse by priests almost 50 years ago.
News accounts report the 1963 letter was released by attorneys in California who represented sexual abuse victims in the Los Angeles Diocese. In fact, those same attorneys have previously released numerous damning documents that got little media attention until now.
As cities rush to solve major problems with water infrastructure, newer technologies are being touted by city agencies as cheaper, cleaner solutions. In two different local projects, the Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati (MSD) and a City Council task force are looking into green ways to solve the city's water needs.
On Wednesday, CityBeat covered some of the benefits and downsides of green water infrastructure. According to the report reviewed Wednesday, green water infrastructure is cheaper and does create a boon of jobs, but it faces some funding and education problems. However, it was unclear how the green ideas would translate into Cincinnati.
Tony Parrott, executive director of MSD, says despite the challenges, green infrastructure is clearly the cheaper option. The organization is partnering with local organizations to adopt a series of new projects — among them, green roofs, rain gardens, wetlands — to meet a new federal mandate that requires MSD to reduce the amount of sewer overflow that makes it into local rivers and streams.
"That is a very costly mandate," he says. "Our belief is that green infrastructure and sustainable infrastructure will allow us to achieve a lot of those objectives a lot cheaper than your conventional deep tunnel systems or other gray type of infrastructure."
Of course, conventional — or "gray" — infrastructure still
has its place, but adopting a hybrid of green and gray infrastructure
or just green infrastructure in some areas was found to be cheaper in
MSD analyses, according to Parrott.
Plans are already being executed. On top of the smaller projects that slow the flow of storm water into sewer systems, MSD is also taking what Parrott calls a "large-scale approach to resurrect or daylight former streams and creeks that were buried over 150 years ago." This approach will rely on the new waterways to redirect storm water so it doesn't threaten to flood sewers and cause sewer overflow, Parrott says.
The programs are being approached in a "holistic way," according to Parrott. MSD intends to refine and reiterate on what works as the programs develop. However, that comes with challenges when setting goals and asking for funding.
"We think that if you're going to use a more integrated approach, it may require us to ask for more time to get some of these projects done and in the ground and then see how effective they are," Parrott says.
If it all plays out, the ongoing maintenance required by the green approach could be good for the local economy, according to Parrott: "With the green and sustainable infrastructure, you're creating a new class of what we call green jobs for maintenance. The majority of those jobs are something local folks can do as opposed to the conventional process." Additionally, the green jobs also tend to benefit "disadvantaged communities" more than conventional jobs, according to Parrott.
The argument is essentially what Jeremy Hays, chief strategist for state and local initiatives at Green For All, told CityBeat on Wednesday. Since the green jobs require less education and training, they're more accessible to "disadvantaged workers," according to Hays: "They require some training and some skills, but not four years' worth because it's skills that you can get at a community college or even on the job."
While MSD fully encourages the use of rain barrels, recycling will not be a top priority for MSD's programs. Instead, that priority goes to the Rainwater Harvesting Task Force, a City Council task force intended to find ways to reform the city's plumbing code to make harvesting and recycling rainwater a possibility.
Bob Knight, a member of the task force, says there is already a model in place the city can use. The task force is looking into adopting the International Green Construction Code (IGCC) in Cincinnati. The code will "prescriptively tell" architects and engineers how to design a rainwater harvesting system. In other words, IGCC would set a standard for the city.
Deciding on this code was not without challenges. At first, the task force wasn't even sure if it could dictate how rainwater is harvested and recycled. The first question Knight had to ask was, "Who has that authority?" What it found is a mix of local agencies — Greater Cincinnati Water Works, MSD and Cincinnati Department of Planning — will all have to work together to implement the city's new code.
The task force hopes to give its findings to Quality of Life Committee, which is led by Vice Mayor Roxanne Qualls, by the end of November.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio and several voting rights groups are asking that a special prosecutor drop his investigation into vague, unspecified allegations of voter registration fraud. If the probe isn't ended, the groups hint that they may file a lawsuit against the Prosecutor's Office.
This week's issue of CityBeat features a Porkopolis column detailing the investigation, which was launched by Hamilton County Prosecutor Joe Deters. Deters also is Sen. John McCain's Southwest Ohio campaign chairman, and many people have viewed Deters' action as a partisan tactic designed to suppress the surge in new voters on the Democratic side.
Never piss off the proletariat.
Upset about his low pay and dismal working conditions, a worker at one of Facebook's Third World contractors has leaked the social media site's ultra-secret document about what type of content it censors.
Amine Derkaoui, a 21-year-old Moroccan man, worked for an outsourcing firm last year that scanned Facebook members' pages for banned content. Given Facebook's profitability, Derkaoui became angry about its stinginess with workers.
As a result, Derkaoui gave a copy of Facebook's internal guidelines about what content it will delete to Gawker, a top Internet gossip site.
Some of the forbidden items are obvious like racial slurs, depictions of human or animal mutilation, photographs or cartoons of sexual activity, violent speech and content that organizes or promotes illegal activity.
But some of the other verboten items are more unusual, if not downright strange.
For example, naked "private parts" including female nipple bulges and butt cracks are forbidden, but male nipples are allowed. The list specifically mentions "mothers breastfeeding" as unacceptable.
Also, most depictions of bodily fluids are unacceptable, but not all. It lists "urine, feces, vomit, semen, pus and ear wax" as unacceptable (yes, ear wax). But, it helpfully notes, "cartoon feces, urine and spit are OK; real and cartoon snot is OK." Well, that's good to know.
Other items subject to deletion include cartoon nudity, images of internal organs, bones, muscles, tendons and "deep flesh wounds," along with "blatant (obvious) depiction of camel toes and moose knuckles." (Confession: I had to Google "moose knuckle" to know what that meant.)
Images of "crushed heads, limbs, etc. are OK," however, as long as "no insides are showing" and the person posting them doesn't express delight or gratification.
Moreover, all criticism of Ataturk, the founder of the nation of Turkey, along with images depicting the burning of Turkish flags are forbidden. It's believed this restriction is due to certain European laws that, if violated, could cause the site to be blocked in Turkey.
The 17-page manual includes a one-page "cheat sheet" so workers can quickly reference it when making decisions about what to delete.
Gawker said Derkaoui found his job through the outsourcing firm oDesk, which provides content moderation services for Facebook and Google. About 50 people across the globe — mostly in Turkey, the Philippines, Mexico and India — work to moderate Facebook content. They work from home in four-hour shifts and earn $1 per hour plus commissions.
"It's humiliating. They are just exploiting the Third World," Derkaoui told Gawker.
In a letter to the Hamilton County Board of Elections, City Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld today asked the Board to extend in-person early voting hours in the county. Council members Roxanne Qualls, Chris Seelbach, Cecil Thomas, Laure Quinlivan, Yvette Simpson and Wendell Young also signed the letter. Council members Christopher Smitherman, an Independent, and Charlie Winburn, a Republican, were notified of the letter Thursday, but they did not agree to sign.
In-person early
voting will begin on Oct. 2 and run until Nov. 2. If hours are not
extended, polls in Hamilton County will only be open on weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. If the Board agrees to Sittenfeld's recommendations,
early voting will be extended to 8 p.m. on weekdays and Saturday
The letter brings home a political controversy that has recently gained national attention. In recent weeks, Democrats have accused state Republicans of extending in-person early voting in predominantly Republican counties and keeping shorter in-person early voting hours in predominantly Democratic counties.
Democrats typically point to Warren County and Butler County — two predominantly Republican counties with extended in-person early voting — and the recent actions of Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted. In the predominantly Democratic counties of Lucas, Cuyahoga, Summit and Franklin, Husted had to break ties in Boards of Election on the issue of in-person early voting hours. In every case, Husted voted against extending in-person early voting hours.
Jerid Kurtz, spokesperson for Ohio Democratic Party, says the move follows a clear Republican trend: "Every opportunity that presents itself, Republicans take away the right to vote."
Kurtz is referring to Republicans' initial push to end in-person early voting in Ohio. In 2011, Republicans passed two laws — H.B. 194 and H.B. 224 — that ended in-person early voting in the state. After Democrats managed to get enough petition signatures to put the early voting issue on the November ballot, Republicans repealed H.B. 194. However, by not repealing H.B. 224, Republicans have made it so all non-military voters are still disallowed to vote the Saturday, Sunday and Monday before Election Day. Democrats and President Barack Obama have filed a lawsuit to restore those early voting days for all voters, including military personnel and families.
Democrats like Kurtz argue that in-person early voting is necessary to maintain reliable, efficient elections. In 2004, Ohio did not have in-person early voting in place, and the state drew national attention when its long voting lines forced some people to wait as long as 10 hours to vote. After the debacle, a Republican-controlled legislature and Gov. Bob Taft, also a Republican, passed laws allowing in-person early voting.
now Republicans seem skeptical of their own laws.
Republicans say the measures are meant to cut costs and stop voter
fraud, but Democrats say the measures are all about suppressing the vote. In
a moment of honesty, former Florida Republican Chairman Jim Greer told
MSNBC that the measures are about disenfranchising demographics that typically side with Democrats. Even Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin has stepped in to criticize Republicans for what he sees as disenfranchisement.
Husted told reporters at Cleveland's The Plain Dealer that he is considering establishing uniform rules. With such rules, every county would have the same in-person early voting hours.
But Kurtz says the talk about a uniform rule is "pure silliness." He says counties have differences, so they need different voting times. Instead of worrying about uniformity or what counties can afford, Kurtz says Husted should worry managing elections and "empowering people to vote."The calls for extended early voting come a time when Hamilton County is facing budget issues. With a $20 million budget shortfall projected for next year, affording more early voting hours might be difficult. No official estimate has been released on how much the extended hours would cost.
The Hamilton County Board of Elections will meet Thursday at 9 a.m. to discuss extending in-person early voting hours.
With the city of Cincinnati facing a $50.4 million deficit next year, the city's top administrator is recommending City Council end a property tax rollback that's been in effect since 1999. Even eliminating the rollback, however, won't prevent some cuts in city services.
The deficit estimate is considerably larger than the $30 million amount predicted by the city's budget director three weeks ago.

Advice from experienced experts
On April 18 and 19 the new members of the Scientific Advisory Board of the Zukunftskolleg held their first meeting in Konstanz. The first day started in the evening with a guided tour by historian Harald Derschka through the historic premises of the Steigenberger Inselhotel, a former cloister. On Friday morning the rector of the University of Konstanz, Ulrich Rüdiger, opened the meeting in the Senatssaal and welcomed the new board members as well as the director and the Fellows of the Zukunftskolleg. Joachim Nettelbeck, former member of the Scientific Advisory Board, gave a review of the work of the last years. Then a short round of introductions by the new members of the Scientific Advisory Board followed, before the Fellows of the Zukunftskolleg presented their research in Lightning Talks. The director of the Zukunftskolleg, Giovanni Galizia, informed about the status quo of the Zukunftskolleg and the expectations of the Scientific Advisory Board. In the following round table discussion important questions were discussed in the plenum. After lunch in the Common Room of the Zukunftskolleg the Scientific Advisory Board met for an internal meeting, before they gave a feedback concerning the future development of the Zukunftskolleg to the director, the Executive Committee and the Back Office.
"Fight for Love"
Associated Fellow Roland Weierstall was involved in a study that analysed the attractiveness of veterans. For this he and his colleagues interviewed more than 1.000 women, which type of man - out of four different types with and without posttraumatic stress disorder and aggression - they would prefer for a long-term or short-term relationship.
The study was published in the journal "Evolutionary Psychology". Read more about it in the press release (in German).
Select the best
On April 15, the Recruitment Committee held its first meeting to select new Fellows for the Zukunftskolleg. In its most recent call for proposals (closing date for applications was March 15, 2013), the Zukunftskolleg received more than 180 applications for the 2-year Postdoctoral and 5-year Research Fellowships, as part of the Marie Curie Zukunftskolleg Incoming Fellowship Programme (ZIF) supported by the European Union COFUND Programme.

Albert Nobbs asks the viewer to venture into a world of suspended disbelief, one where the women dressed as men simply look far too feminine to believe…mostly.
A period piece with a twist is how I see Albert Nobbs, the story of a woman living as a man in order to survive the male dominated society of 19th century Ireland.
With all the media attention surrounding this film, the surprise does not rest in the main character's sexual identity, instead the meat of the story exists in how Albert Nobbs deals with the world in which she is trapped.
While there are some excellent performances (two of which received Oscar nominations), the film lacks that special ingredient that would take it from good to great.
However, the screenplay is well constructed, featuring interweaving storylines between the hospitality workers in the hotel that hold our interest and tickles our curiosity.
What will further your curiosity is the complete disappointment the Blu Ray + DVD combo pack delivers. The video and audio presentation of the feature is solid, but the measly special feature set is baffling. For a film nominated for Best Achievement in Makeup, there isn't a single featurette providing insight into the process. Instead we receive disjointed Interviews with the cast and crew, and three deleted scenes: one of which should have been left in the final cut, the other two deserved their snip.
Bottom Line: If you enjoyed the film and have no interest in learning more about the process, this is the perfect Blu Ray release for you.

London in 1927 from Tim Sparke on Vimeo.
Around the time that technicolor features were first introduced to theaters, British film pioneer Clause Friese-Greene was experimenting with video travelogues using the color process that his father, a noted cinematographer, was experimenting with. Vimeo recently published Friese-Greene's gorgeous video of London, filmed in 1926 for his cross-country travelogue The Open Road. (more…)

Your Ultimate Guide to Concealer
Turns out the secret to having flawless skin isn't getting regular facials and using $150 La Mer moisturizer. It's knowing how to apply concealer
How to conceal puffiness
You need: highlighter + liquid concealerHow to apply: While you can't cover up puffiness, Dedivanovic says there is a trick you can do with concealer to make it less noticeable. Mix a liquid concealer with a tiny bit of highlighter, and dab it where you're puffy. Then blend the highlighter into your crease, which will help reflect light and give the effect of smooth skin. We recommend E.L.F. Studio Under Eye Concealer & Highlighter, $3.

To help undergraduate students monitor their academic performance, faculty members will provide a warning to students with unsatisfactory performance at midterm. Each semester, the Registrar will establish and announce the dates for the window within which midterm grades may be posted by faculty members and read by students and advisors. Faculty members will assign a midterm grade of "D" (danger or potential failure) of "F" (failure) by using the Univerity Records and Systems Assistant (URSA) at www.iup.edu/ursa. The midterm grade is an advisory grade and is not a permanent part of a student's academic history. It is not used to determine enrollment status, dismissal, or eligibllity for financial aid, housing, or athletics.
12:20 p.m.–1:10 p.m.
Uhler Hall, Room 111
The literature on men's experience of psychological abuse is reviewed with a focus on our ability to conceptualize and measure such abuse. Scales used to measure psychological abuse based on the experiences of battered women are critiqued as inadequate measures of psychological abuse of men. Evidence that women psychologically abuse male partners is examined, but I argue that gender influences the perpetration, experience, understanding and impact of psychologically aggressive acts, and that new conceptualizations and measures are needed. Adopting a gender role perspective on psychological abuse, I suggest that women may use different strategies to hurt men including manipulation and gender role harassment. Others have argued that coercive control paired with physical violence may constitute one version of intimate partner violence more frequently perpetrated by men. Directions for future research are identified.

The Foldable Udden Desk
Materials: UDDEN drawer unit, PAX BALLSTAD closer door, PERFEKT plinth, plus various bits and pieces. Screwdriver, Sandpaper, Saw etc. etc.
Description: This might not be your typical hack that people can try themselves but I hope it will help inspire people to solve their own furniture problems. :)
I've been making videoreviews of DVD box sets on youtube for a few years and always filmed my videos on a plain white table. After moving my DVD collection to a much smaller room I came up with the idea of building my own custom-style reviewing table in order to save on space. The basic premise was to design a table that would be somewhat transformable so I could minimize it when I wasn't using it.
I bought all my items brand new from IKEA and started to build.
I used an UDDEN drawer unit as a small table by adding a sawed off closet door (PAX BALLSTAD) to the top of it (the drawer unit doesn't come with a top as it's actually only meant to be hung from a work bench).
Then I used another part of the closet door together with a PERFEKT plinth to make an extended desk that you can fold down when it's not needed.
And that's it. A drawer unit, a closet door and a plinth turned into a clever desk.
I also made a video about this project where I talk about the process and show more of it.

Some ideas for you:
What you really want to do is cut some openings into the small board on top of the radiator and install a grille. Otherwise your heating costs will go right up. Esp. with the table folded down that radiator is really blocked if you don't have at least a grille. And if you paint that grille white it won't be very obvious, either.
On the left side I'd install some sort of slide-out thingy under the shelf that's the same height as the desk. So you fold the desk up and then slide out the thingy and you don't need any leg on the left side. Legs are always a nuisance. That slider should be near the front edge of the table, of course.
For the right side hmmm... - maybe hinge something to the underside of the desk with the hinge at the right and near the front corner. But hinged so the leg folds along the front edge of the desk (not to the back). And sticks to the underside of the table somehow. Maybe with some magnets or something. So you could fold the table up, slide out the left thingy, then fold the right leg down and to the right. Maybe just another bit of this 16cm board. Actually, since those boards are so expensive it would probably be cheaper to just get a piece of particle board from the hardware store. Over here, white 19mm particle board can be had for about €10-15/m².
If that leg is flush with the Udden when unfolded and since it would fold sideways it should not collapse by itself. (uh I hope this was in understandable?)
For the left raw side of the table (and the raw sides of the leg if you buy from the hardware store) you can get some iron-on edge tape if you want. Just ask at the section where they sell the particle board/chipboard.- AnonymousJanuary 19, 2012 4:08 PM
Good hack, I would never have thought of an idea like that!

You don't need fold out legs just door lock/bolts mounted under the desktop that slot into recieving holes each side.

worked about 1 hourPros: drive worked Cons: drive worked for only about 1 hour Other Thoughts: I plugged it into my HP Vista PC (USB 2) and it was recognized. I did C/P of files (~24 GB), and the xfer rate dropped from about 34 to 20 MB over the first 2 minutes. When I came back the C/P window had closed, but the drive was not listed on "Computer", and was very warm. I unplugged the power and USB and let it sit for an hour. I reconnected all and the drive has no lights, no vibrations/noise, and it is not recognized by the PC. The drive ran for most of 1 hour and is now dead. I did also check the power supply brick. I do not want a replacement, I will wait for a sale on a different brand. Did you find this review helpful? |
Works ok, for now...Pros: Just bought this drive a couple weeks ago, came ready for Windows, but I erased it all, partitioned it into a separate HFS+ partition and NTFS partition, use Paragon to read in on my Mac when I need to read/write to in from Mac. Use the drive for a 2nd backup, for the Mac external backup I have and the Windows backup (can never be too safe) that I have on my VM. Use DriveImageXML (free for private use) to backup one Windows based external HD to another, works well for now. Cons: It does get quite warm when in use, not hot, but we'll see how it handles the workload. The one concern I have is some clicking noises, which might just be the drive reading sectors, but it only makes the noise if I pick the drive up to move it. I happened once also when I first got the drive running. Other Thoughts: Good deal for the price as long as it keeps working! Did you find this review helpful? |
Not fully compatible with Win 7Pros: Large capacity, USB 3.0 so it's fast, and inexpensive. NewEgg was reasonable about the return, although I had to call to eliminate the restocking charge that's added by default with the web based RMA request. Cons: Worked great with windows 8, had no issues with general mounting and moving files around with windows 7 (or even XP). Problem came when trying to use it as a target for windows 7 system image backup. The backup fails with error 0x8007045D. After some searching and ruling out filesystem corruption, I found out that Windows image backup cannot tolerate the 4K sectors (See MS KB: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/982018). From what I can tell this drive has native 4K physical and logical sectors and that isn't supported on Windows 7. Other Thoughts: I didn't spend anytime playing with the seagate software, since I'm using this for windows image backup, that software isn't going to be there on the recovery CD, so it's just asking for trouble. However, I does appear seagate has a nice backup program (based on Acronis), but I wanted to stick with the standard Windows tools. 7 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Good drivePros: Good build quality, USB 3.0, good price. Cons: You'll void your warranty if you plan on cracking open the external enclosure to get at the internal drive. Other Thoughts: I plan on tearing this open for the internal drive for use in an HTPC. I've always thought its stupid that the equivalent internal drive is more expensive than the external drive. It's almost like external enclosures are becoming an additional layer of packaging these days. Did you find this review helpful? |
Works FinePros: Works very well no problems. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: A good buy. Did you find this review helpful? |
Terrible DisappointmentPros: None Cons: Didn't work with Windows Backup and Restore in Windows 7. Troubleshot the problem for a few days, couldn't get any solution to work. It'd be real nice if they warned that this isn't compatible with Windows Backup and Restore and save people a lot of money and time. Other Thoughts: It'd be real nice if they warned that this isn't compatible with Windows Backup and Restore and save people a lot of money and time. 5 out of 9 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
FEEDBACK UPDATEPros: USB 3.0 - Reasonably cool - Quiet Operation - Reliable - Fast Response - Power Mangement - Large Capacity - Good Price Cons: No backup software preloaded. Other Thoughts: I originally gave this an egg reduction because the drive only went to sleep when my computer went to sleep. But I have obtained the Seagate Dashboard Program from Seagate Support online and that software can set the power management options to whatever you want - so now I'm totally happy. Drive has been on line for about 6 months - works great! 6 out of 6 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Quick..Pros: USB 3 Cons: None Other Thoughts: Seems like a good drive, I have several seagate external drives I have used over the years and none of them have ever failed! I hope this one lasts just as long! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Stop calling it a propitiatory cable.Pros: I keep seeing reviews mentioning the "propitiatory" cable this uses. It's not, it's a USB 3.0 Micro-B connector!!! Cons: NONE 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Nice drive !!!Pros: Works great, no issues on Windows XP or Windows 7. Cons: no power switch, but not a big problem Other Thoughts: I bought two of these 2TB drives - as backup drives. Works great, and having 2 identical backup copies of my files lets me sleep at night. No power switch is not really an issue for me, as I only plug these in ocassionally. One computer is Windows XP, so I decided to NOT go bigger than 2TB. New Egg is great. Did you find this review helpful? |
"The drive worked well when i received it. Was getting transfer rates of at least 45MB/s on consistant basis - maxing ..."— Atlantiswasreal 9/13/2012
"The drive inside the enclosure is a Seagate ST3000DM001. The bare drive is actually more expensive when purchased by itself! ..."— Tomvision 9/20/2012

I'm wondering if there's anyone that's willing to trade a pokemon from Pokemon White that has charge so I can transfer my pokemon off Soul Silver. I have a Blitzle from Black with charge if needed.
charge aved my life 1 day..this guys zeckrom destroyed my team all i had left was a togekiss i got 1 metronome off and it was charge i was like..well im dead but it didnt work that way..he ran out of PP for all of his electric moves i kept spamming roost and won with back to back air slashes.
No man can walk out on his own story
-Spirit of the West, Rango.
So was it ever established that all humans in the Pokemon world are actually evolved/descendants of Mew? Was reading the creation story of Pokemon and it seemed a little weird that pokemon were catching pokemon. However I don't know if this was just a figurative or literal tale of pokemon world creation. Just read the books in the Sinnoh region.
Sort of interesting stuff. http://www.zeldainformer.com/news/co...rnal-questions
Some of this doesn't make much sense. Like this:
We've seen Pokemon doing work lots of times in game. Like those Machoke/Vigoroths in the beginning of R/S/E, or the Machop helping to make a building.Pokémon as creatures, are much closer to – they're not like how our pets are on Earth – they're much closer to humans than they are to like a cat or a dog pet that we would keep on Earth. Because there is such a closer relationship between humans and Pokémon, most people in the Pokémon world probably wouldn't want to use Pokémon in such a manner as making them work to do something. But, there are some people with bad ideals, or bad people in the Pokémon world who might try to do something like that
And if Pokemon love Pokeballs so much, why do they resist?
Still, a few neat things. Seems like it's just Masuda's headcanon.

The Eevee is amazing. Like holy fuck.
Just got Pokemon Black and a 3DS off my brother. I have instructed my housemates to push food underneath my door and if 3 days have passed and the plates have not been pushed back out, they should call an ambulance. Time to re-live my childhood. Giddy-up!!!
Probably doesn't mean anything but one can hope... Gen VI stuff (very unlikely...)? Remakes of Ruby/Sapphire?Japanese magazine Nintendo Dream has posted a greetings card sent out by GameFreak. This greetings card doesn't reveal much news but does state that Junichi Masuda has said that during 2013, they intend to further evolve the world of Pokémon.
