HUNTINGTON, W.Va. - Tommy Shuler knows his beard could use a trim. The Marshall wide receiver's whiskers are a bit thicker than they normally are, but it's not out of a desire to look like his current quarterback and former Miami Central High teammate, Rakeem Cato.
The junior is a man right now without much free time.
"I just haven't been able to get to the barbershop," Shuler said. "I've been worrying about getting me back together. I don't need a cut right now."
Shuler has yet to participate in a full preseason practice. He's recovering from offseason foot surgery and coaches are easing him back into action. There's not much he needs to prove to the Thundering Herd's staff after his record-breaking season last year. But he wants to prove that he can reach the same levels or higher in 2013.
Shuler entered last season as a seldom-used slot receiver, but ended it as one of the top pass-catchers in the Football Bowl Subdivision. His freshman season in 2011 consisted of 14 receptions for 122 yards and no touchdowns. His sophomore season included 110 catches for 1,138 yards and six touchdowns. He broke Mike Barber's single-season record of 106 catches in 1987, was named an all-Conference USA first teamer and found himself on the 2013 Biletnikoff Award watch list.
But not finding himself among the players who can go full-contact this preseason has been frustrating. It's not something Shuler is used to, and not something he ever wants to get used to.
"Where I come from, we don't take days off," Shuler said. "When I was at Miami Central, I broke my hand the day before we played Booker T. (Washington) and I played the next day. It's been kind of frustrating being out for eight weeks.
"I feel like I've been getting my groove back each day, but I want to be out there to help them out," Shuler added. "On that big third down we want to convert, I feel we can convert if I can be out there just to give the defense a look or to get me the ball.
That competitive spirit has earned Shuler the respect of his teammates, especially senior corner Derrick Thomas. Since Thomas arrived last season as a Penn State transfer, he's considered Shuler one of his closest friends on the team. As fiery as they are going head to head on the field, it's that fire that's made them so compatible.
"It's his love for the game," Thomas said. "He just wants to compete so much. All he wants to do is compete, compete, compete. And now that we're running man coverage, he loves that, because it's just us against them."

Tuesday, Oct. 16 marked our annual NFL Hometown Huddle program in partnership with Mile High United Way. This year's joint service project focused on kids' fitness as part of the NFL Play :60 campaign, encouraging children to get at least 60 minutes of exercise in per day.
Tuesday was a perfect day for this. The skies were blue, the sun was shining and about 120 kids from Boys and Girls Clubs of Metro Denver were raring to go as the Broncos and United Way introduced them to the fundamentals of football.
Players Brian Clark, Chris Myers, Domonique Foxworth and Brandon Marshall joined Ring of Fame Member Billy Thompson in hosting five different stations of the Gatorade Junior Training Camp, with each running a station that presented a different football skill for the kids to practice while getting exercise at the same time.
Brandon Marshall had his kids doing the infamous touchdown dance of their choosing after completing his drills. Will we see any of these dance renditions from Brandon on Sunday? He saw a lot of good material from which to choose.
The day was capped off by decadent ice cream treats from Cold Stone for all who participated. That may not exactly support the primary health and fitness message for the day, but it sure brought smiles to the kids' faces and supported the notion that life is all about balance.

Director-General inaugurates exhibition celebrating re-installation of the Aksum Obelisk
On 23 April 2009, the Director-General of UNESCO, Mr Koïchiro Matsuura inaugurated an exhibition at UNESCO Headquarters celebrating the successful reinstallation of the Aksum Obelisk in Ethiopia. Entitled 'Aksum Rediscovered: The Reinstallation of the Aksum Obelisk', the exhibition features films and photographs documenting key moments of the re-installation built around a structure which recreates the exact volume of the 23.4 metre high stele. Also present were Madam Tadelech Haile-Mikael, Ambassador and Permanent Delegate of Ethiopia to UNESCO and Mr Giuseppe Moscato, Ambassador and Permanent of Italy to UNESCO.
In his opening remarks, Mr Matsuura said that "the exhibition conveys a sense of the spontaneous, joyous festivities that have marked all the phases of the operations in Ethiopia: from the arrival by plane of the three sections of the obelisk in 2005, to the inauguration ceremony in Aksum on 4 September 2008. Today we are delighted to celebrate another milestone: the successful completion of this remarkable adventure. The specially designed metal support structure that obscured the obelisk over the past year has been dismantled at last. Thanks to the hard work, dedication and talents of UNESCO staff and experts, the 152-ton obelisk now proudly stands unencumbered on the Aksum World Heritage site as an archaeological reminder of Ethiopia's glorious past and a testimony to human creativity."
Continuing, Mr Matsuura said that while the long and complex operation constituted "an extraordinary and unprecedented technical achievement...the project also has a tremendous symbolic significance. Indeed, it is my hope that the Aksum project will be remembered above all as a convincing demonstration of the power of dialogue, international cooperation, and culture in development strategies."
The Director-General paid tribute to the Governments of Ethiopia and Italy, without whom the project could not have been undertaken and concluded by saying that "For all Ethiopians, the Aksum Obelisk is much more than an archaeological vestige of a bygone era: it stands as a potent and vibrant symbol of their national heritage and pride. At the present time, when international leaders and decision makers are searching for sustainable solutions to the crises that are wreaking havoc around the world, and whose consequences may be particularly dire for the peoples of the South, success stories such as the Aksum project provide convincing arguments for integrating culture into development strategies with a view to ensuring a brighter future for all peoples of the planet."

Intrepid miners have prospected the Yukon territory for decades, with only moderate success, until one on a fishing trip spotted a river bed full of gold.
On this day. August 16, in 1896, while salmon fishing near the Klondike river, George Carmack and his two Native American companions Skookum Jim and Tagish Charlie found a nugget of gold on a river bed.
Carmack recorded his claim at the local office, and went about bragging of his discovery to the local townspeople. He had a history of such public claims, usually overstated, and few believed "Lying George" this time. Those who did, however, found the nearby land teeming with gold. By the time news reached San Francisco, the following year, via men disembarking with sacks of gold, hundreds of people packed up their belongings, quit their jobs, and made their way to the Klondike for the Last Great Gold Rush.
Have you been to the downtown Seattle Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park?
It's worth seeing! Check out their website here.

Hotel Ravesi
A small and charming hotel, located among the greenery of the island of Salina, the result of a careful restoration of an old Aeolian village, at the centre of the residential area in Malfa. You can admire the most charming view on the island from the large overflow swimming pool: terraced hills, the Giovi valley, which faces two giant lava mounds immersed in the sea, Panarea and Stromboli. Immersed in the greenery of its gardens, a short distance from the sea, the Hotel Ravesi offers moments of absolute relaxation, to give them an unforgettable holiday.
Staying at the Hotel Ravesi means visiting an important place in the history of Salina. In fact, the hotel is the result of an authentic restoration of an old location owned by the Ravesi family. The main part of the building was built in the XIX century. A number of dwellings for domestic and farmhouse use were built next to the original building. The farmhouses were transformed into small mills for making agricultural and fish products.
The hotel's bar is dug out of an old farm lodge, which was used for making wine and malvasia, adjacent to a raised kitchen with its characteristic cufulara and a wood-fired, which is now small but well equipped library, in which you will be able to appreciate reading while enjoying a good breakfast or a cool aperitif.
The hotel borders on the central Immacolata church, and via its garden is directly connected to the square of the same name; it is only a few hundred metres from the small Scalo Galera port and Punta Scario beach.

It's Elemental: A Periodic Table Duvet
This is a duvet cover that a loving woman made for her chemistry major boyfriend. I think this is the first time I've ever typed duvet. Secretly, I liked it.
You may or may not have seen a post I did back in the fall when I was in the planning stages of making a quilt for my boyfriend for Christmas, featuring the "periodic table of the elements", because he is a Chemistry major, and I thought he'd find it totally epic.
Unfortunately, It became a duvet cover instead of a quilt because of a) time constraints and the fact that I still had gifts for 7 or 8 other people that I was making and b) buying the batting for the inside would have put me $50 over budget instead of just $10 over. (shh, don't tell him.)
Haha, he totally just got told. And also, I want one. I'm gonna don an eyepatch and get my argon under that sucker. Know what I'm saying? You bring the parrot.
Hit the jump for several more of the construction.

sscanf 2.8.1 - Updated 12/03/13: Now supports npcmodes!
sscanf 2.8.1 NPC modes To use sscanf in an NPC mode, download this file: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21683085/npcdll.rar And extract it to your root server directory (so "amxsscanf.dll" is in the same directory as "samp-npc.exe"). Then use as normal. The only tiny difference is that "u", "r", and "q" don't know if a user is a bot or not, so just assume they are all players - use accordingly. Contents
Introduction I have been hinting at this plugin for quite a while now (to some people anyway, and it was posted about on twitter) and it's finally complete - I really don't have much spare time and there's quite a lot of code to this (it puts the old sscanf to shame). I was initially trying to fix a few problems with the old sscanf in PAWN - things like the lack of optional integers and buffer overflows on strings, it was going OK but the code was getting quite large - it got over 1000 lines for a single function before I decided to move it out to a plugin. As I was at it there was also a large number of new specifiers I wanted to add. This is possibly my most thoroughly tested code ever - I've got a huge file of unit tests, but given the complexity I have no doubt there will still be bugs about. See the bottom of the post for a history of the bugs and various fixes and versions. Download Source, Windows .dll, and include: Mirror from Y_Less CentOS .so: Mirror from Mark Mirror from h02 Linux .so: Mirror from h02 Mirror from Mellnik sscanf2.inc: Mirror from Pastebin Use This behaves exactly as the old sscanf did, just MUCH faster and much more flexibly. To use it add: pawn Code:
To your modes and remove the old sscanf (the new include will detect the old version and throw an error if it is detected). On windows add: Code:
plugins sscanf Code:
plugins sscanf.so pawn Code:
However it should be noted that sscanf can be used for any text processing you like. For example an ini processor could look like (don't worry about what the bits mean at this stage): pawn Code:
There is also an alternate function name to avoid confusion with the C standard sscanf: pawn Code:
Specifiers The available specifiers (the letters "u", "i" and "s" in the codes above) are below.
The specifier "s" is used, as before, for strings - but they are now more advanced. As before they support collection, so doing: pawn Code:
Will give: Code:
hello 27 pawn Code:
Will fail as "there" is not a number. However doing: pawn Code:
Will give: Code:
hello there pawn Code:
Will give: Code:
hello pawn Code:
Will give: Code:
hello there 27 pawn Code:
As you can see - the format specifier now contains the length of the target string, ensuring that you can never have your strings overflow and cause problems. This can be combined with the SA:MP compiler's stringizing: pawn Code:
So when you change your string size you don't need to change your specifiers. What happened to "z", the optional string? z has been removed (you can still use it but will get a server warning) to make way for the new optional parameter system described later on.
One of the advanced new specifiers is "a", which creates an array, obviously. The syntax is similar to that of strings and, as you will see later, the delimiter code: pawn Code:
The "a" specifier is immediately followed by a single type enclosed in angle brackets - this type can be any of the basic types listed above. It is the followed, as with strings now, by an array size. The code above will put the numbers 1 to 5 into the 5 indexes of the "arr" array variable. Arrays can now also be combined with strings (see below), specifying the string size in the array type: Code:
a<s[10]>[12] Code:
A<s[10]>(hello)[12] Code:
A<i>(0, 1)[4] Code:
0, 1, 2, 3 Code:
A<s[10]>(hi, there)[4] Code:
"hi, there", "hi, there", "hi, there", "hi, there" Code:
A<s[10]>(hi (code\))[4] Code:
A<s[10]>(This is longer than 10 characters)[4]
This is possibly the most powerful addition to sscanf ever. This gives you the ability to define the structure of an enum within your specifier string and read any data straight into it. The format takes after that of arrays, but with more types - and you can include strings in enums (but not other enums or arrays): pawn Code:
Now I'll be impressed if you can read that code straight off, so I'll explain it slowly: Code:
e - Start of the "enum" type < - Starts the specification of the structure of the enum i - An integer, corresponds with E_DATA_C f - A float, corresponds with E_DATA_X s[32] - A 32 cell string, corresponds with E_DATA_NAME c - A character, corresponds with E_DATA_Z > - End of the enum specification
The two new specifiers "{" and "}" are used for what are known as "quiet" strings. These are strings which are read and checked, but not saved. For example: pawn Code:
Clearly there are two numbers and two "i", but only one return variable. This is because the first "i" is quiet so is not saved, but affects the return value. The code above makes "var" "-100". The code below will fail in an if check: pawn Code:
Although the first integer is not saved it is still read - and "hi" is not an integer. Quiet zones can be as long as you like, even for the whole string if you only want to check values are right, not save them: pawn Code:
You can also embed quiet sections inside enum specifications: pawn Code:
Quiet sections cannot contain other quiet sections, however they can include enums which contain quiet sections.
Searches were in the last version of sscanf too, but I'm explaining them again anyway. Strings enclosed in single quotes (') are scanned for in the main string and the position moved on. Note that to search for a single quote you escape it as above using "\\": pawn Code:
Gives: Code:
10 12 pawn Code:
But that wouldn't check that the string was "woo". Also note the use of "1000" for the string size. Quiet strings must still have a length, but as they aren't saved anywhere you can make this number as large as you like to cover any eventuality. Enum specifications can include search strings.
This is a feature similar to quiet sections, which allows you to skip overwriting certain parts of an enum: Code:
e<ii-i-ii> pawn Code:
And you only wanted to update the first two and the last fields and leave all others untouched you could use that specifier above. This way sscanf knows how to skip over the memory, and how much memory to skip. Note that this doesn't read anything, so you could also combine this with quiet sections: Code:
e<ii-i-i{ii}i> Code:
E<ii-i-ii> Code:
E<ii-i-ii>(11, 22, 55)
The previous version of sscanf had "p" to change the symbol used to separate tokens. This specifier still exists but it has been formalised to match the array and enum syntax. What was previously: pawn Code:
Is now: pawn Code:
The old version will still work, but it will give a warning. Enum specifications can include delimiters, and is the only time "<>"s are contained in other "<>"s: pawn Code:
Note that the delimiter will remain in effect after the enum is complete. You can even use ">" as a specifier by doing "p<\>>" (or the older "p>"). When used with strings, the collection behaviour is overruled. Most specifiers are still space delimited, so for example this will work: pawn Code:
Despite the fact that there are no ";"s. However, strings will ONLY use the specified delimiters, so: pawn Code:
Will NOT work - the variable "str" will contain "hello 1". On the other hand, the example from earlier, slightly modified: pawn Code:
WILL work and will give an output of: Code:
hello there 27 pawn Code:
This uses a "quiet section" to ignore anything before the first "(", and then uses multiple delimiters to end all the text. Example: pawn Code:
EVERY format specifier (that is, everything except '', {} and p) now has an optional equivalent - this is just their letter capitalised, so for example the old "z" optional string specifier is now "S" (there is still "z" and, for completeness, "Z", but both give warnings). In addition to optional specifiers, there are also now default values: pawn Code:
The "()"s (round brackets) contain the default value for the optional integer and, as the main string has no data, the value of "var" becomes "12". Default values come before array sizes and after specifications, so an optional array would look like: pawn Code:
Note that the size of the array is "4" and the default value is "3". There are also two values which are defined, so the final value of "arr" is: Code:
1, 2, 3, 3 pawn Code:
Will be: Code:
3, 6, 9, 12 pawn Code:
Will produce: Code:
1, 2, 2, 2 pawn Code:
Is invalid syntax, the "A" must be the capital part. Enums can also be optional: pawn Code:
In that code all values except "4" will be default. Also, again, you can escape commas with "\\" in default enum strings. Some final examples: pawn Code:
That last example is of a specifier not too well described yet - the "number" specifier, which will work out the format of the number from the leading characters (0x, 0b, 0 or nothing). Also note that the second example has changed - see the next section.
The "u", "q", and "r" specifiers search for a user by name or ID. The method of this search has changed in the latest versions of "sscanf". Additionally "U", "Q", and "R" used to take a name or ID as their default value - this has since been changed to JUST a number, and sscanf will not try and determine if this number is online: Previous: pawn Code:
New: pawn Code:
See the section on options for more details. Users can now optionally return an ARRAY of users instead of just one. This array is just a list of matched IDs, followed by "INVALID_PLAYER_ID". Given the following players: Code:
0) Y_Less 1) [CLAN]Y_Less 2) Jake 3) Alex 4) Hass pawn Code:
Will output: Code:
id = 0 id = 1 Too many matches Code:
id = 0 id = 1 Code:
No matching players found. When combined with "U" and returning the default, the first slot is always exactly the default value (even if that's not a valid connected player) and the next slot is always "INVALID_PLAYER_ID". Note also that user arrays can't be combined with normal arrays or enums, but normal single-return user specifiers still can be.
The latest version of sscanf adds a new "k" specifier to allow you to define your own specifers in PAWN: pawn Code:
The code above, when added to the top level of your mode, will add the "playerstate" specifier, allowing you to do: pawn Code:
This system supports optional custom specifiers with no additional PAWN code: pawn Code:
The new version of "sscanf2.inc" includes functions for "k<weapon>" and "k<vehicle>" allowing you to enter either the ID or name and get the ID back, but both are VERY basic at the moment and I expect other people will improve on them. Note that custom specifiers are not supported in either arrays or enumerations. Note also that custom specifiers always take a string input and always return a number, but this can be a Float, bool, or any other single cell tag type. The optional kustom specifier "K" takes a default value that is NOT (as of sscanf 2.8) parsed by the given callback: Code:
K<vehicle>(999) Also as of sscanf 2.8, "k" can be used in both arrays and enums. Options The latest version of sscanf introduces several options that can be used to customise the way in which sscanf operates. There are two ways of setting these options - globally and locally: pawn Code:
This sets the "SSCANF_QUIET" option globally. Every time "sscanf" is called the option (see below) will be in effect. Note that the use of: Code:
SSCANF_QUIET Code:
SSCANF_QUIET Alternatively you can use "?" to specify an option locally - i.e. only for the current sscanf call: pawn Code:
Obviously "s" without a length is deprecated, and the first and last "sscanf" calls will give a warning in the console, but the second one won't as for just that one call prints have been disabled. The following code disables prints globally then enables them locally: pawn Code:
Note that disabling prints is a VERY bad idea when developing code as you open yourself up to unreported buffer overflows when no length is specified on strings less than 32 cells (the default length). To specify multiple options requires multiple calls: pawn Code:
The options are:
All specifiers For quick reference, here is a list of ALL the specifiers and their use:
"extract" I've written some (extendable) macros so you can do: pawn Code:
This will compile as: pawn Code:
Note that "unformat" is the same as "sscanf", also note that the "SendClientMessage" part is optional: pawn Code:
Will simply compile as: pawn Code:
Basically it just simplifies sscanf a little bit (IMHO). I like new operators and syntax, hence this, examples: pawn Code:
As I say, the syntax is extendable, so to add hex numbers you would do: pawn Code:
That will add the tag "hex" to the system. Yes, the lines look complicated (because they are), but the ONLY things you need to change are the name before the underscore and the letter near the middle ("H", "h" and "a<h>" in the examples above for "optional", "required" and "required array" (no optional arrays yet besides strings)). New examples (with "hex" added): pawn Code:
The code is actually surprisingly simple (I developed another new technique to simplify my "tag" macros and it paid off big style here). By default "Float", "string", "player" and "_" (i.e. no tag) are supported, and their individual letter definitions take up the majority of the code as demonstrated with the "hex" addition above. Note that "string:" is now used extensively in my code to differentiate from tagless arrays in cases like this, it is removed automatically but "player:" and "hex:" are not so you may wish to add: pawn Code:
To avoid tag mismatch warnings (to remove them AFTER the compiler has used them to determine the correct specifier). The very first example had an "else", this will turn: pawn Code:
In to: pawn Code:
You MUST put the "else" on the same line as "extract" for it to be detected, but then you can use normal single or multi-line statements. This is to cover common command use cases, you can even leave things on the same line: pawn Code:
There is now the ability to split by things other than space (i.e. adds "P<?>" to the syntax - updated from using "p" to "P"): pawn Code:
Will simply compile as: pawn Code:
Note that for technical reasons you can use "<->" (because it looks like the arrow after the "extract" keyword). You also can't use "<;>", "<,>", or "<)>" because of a bug with "#", but you can use any other character (most notably "<|>", as is popular with SQL scripts). I'm thinking of adding enums and existing variables (currently you HAVE to declare new variables), but not right now. Kustomisation This is a list of all the know-to-me third-party "k" specifiers (custom specifiers written by other people). Usage is either "k<name>" or "K<name>(default)". The names are the section headers below.
If you get this error, DO NOT just download the dll from a random website (click here for why). This is part of the "Microsoft Visual Studio Redistributable Package". This is required for many programs, but they often come with it. Download it here: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en...s.aspx?id=5555
If you get this error, you need to make sure that you have recompiled ALL your scripts using the LATEST version of "sscanf2.inc". Older versions didn't really require this as they only had two natives - "sscanf" and "unformat", the new version has some other functions - you don't need to worry about them, but you must use "sscanf2.inc" so that they are correctly called. If you think you have done this and STILL get the error then try again - make sure you are using the correct version of PAWNO for example.
This error comes up when people try and put too much data in to a string. For example: pawn Code:
That code will try and put the string "Hello there, how are you?" in to the variable called "str". However, "str" is only 10 cells big and can thus only hold the string "Hello ther" (with a NULL terminator). In this case, the rest of the data is ignored - which could be good or bad: pawn Code:
In this case "num" is still correctly set to "42", but the warning is given for lost data ("e you"). Currently there is nothing you can do about this from a programming side (you can't even detect it - that is a problem I intend to address), as long as you specify how much data a user should enter this will simply discard the excess, or make the destination variable large enough to handle all cases.
A specifier such as: Code:
a<I(5)>[10] Code:
A<i>(5)[10] Code:
A<i>(5, 6)[10]
Similar to the previous warning, A specifier such as: Code:
e<I(5)f> Code:
E<if>(42, 11.0)
This is not allowed: pawn Code:
A work-around can be done using: pawn Code:
That will correctly set up the pointers for the system.
This is not allowed (see the section on search strings): Code:
This is not allowed: Code:
a<p<,>i>[10] Code:
This is not allowed: Code:
a<{i}>[10] Code:
The given specifier is not known (this post contains a full list of all the specifiers near the bottom).
You used "Z", don't; instead use "S".
You used "z", don't; instead use "S".
An optional specifier has been set as (for example): Code:
I() Code:
You have a default value on an optional specifier that looks like: Code:
I(42 Code:
You have no default value on an optional specifier: Code:
I Code:
A custom delimiter of: Code:
p< Code:
p<,> Code:
p<<> Code:
p<\>> Code:
You are using the old style: Code:
p, Code:
The format specifier just ends with: Code:
A string has been written as: Code:
s[10 Code:
A string has been written as: Code:
s Code:
An invalid array or string size has been specified (0, negative, or not a number).
A string or array has been given a length that is not a number.
In the old system, strings were not required to have lengths but this introduced security problems with overflows. Now you must add a length or get the default of "32".
Arrays are newer than strings, so never had an implementation not requiring a length, so there is no compatability problems in REQUIRING a length to be given.
You have tried writing something like this: Code:
"}" was found with no corresponding "{": Code:
This is caused by specifiers such as: Code:
{fe<i}x> Code:
Basically, you can't do: Code:
e<fa<i>[5]f> Code:
A specifier starts a string with "'", but doesn't close it: Code:
"format" uses code such as "%d", sscanf only needs "d", and confusingly the C equivalent function (also called "sscanf") DOES require "%". Sorry.
Default values for arrays can be partially specified and the remainder will be inferred from the pattern of the last two: Code:
A<i>(0, 1)[10] Code:
E<iiff>(0, 1, 0.0, 1.0) Code:
E<iiff>(0, 1)
The "?" specifier for local options must appear outside any other specifier.
An option was specified with no value: Code:
The given option was not recognised. Check spelling and case: Code:
A "k" specifier has been used, but the corresponding function could not be found. If you think it is there check the spelling matches exactly - including the case.
You edited something in the sscanf2 include - undo it or redownload it. "fixes2" Plugin The "fixes2" plugin can detect and parse server error messages - exactly the same error messages that "sscanf2" uses to alert scripters to potential problems such as attempted buffer overflows. This means that if you have that plugin too you can catch and use these error messages like so: pawn Code:
The "fixes2" plugin can be obtained here: http://forum.sa-mp.com/showthread.ph...75#post2106275 Conclusion See if you can figure out what, with this new version, this does (note that this is an extreme example): pawn Code:
Added multiple name returns. Changed "K" to match "U" in default values. Added "OLD_DEFAULT_KUSTOM" option.
Added partial name matching. Changed "U", "Q", and "R" to take default values that aren't valid players. Added options. Switched to using ALS 2 in the include. Added all error messages to this post. Added arrays of strings. Added optional delimiters to have more than one at once.
Fixed the problem with "OnPlayerUpdate" not being called AGAIN!
OK, I've compiled the plugin for Linux (on Ubuntu), and blank. has provided an additional .so for CentOS if the Ubuntu version doesn't work (should do in most Linux cases). The new sscanf package is available here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21683085/sscanf(2).rar The CentOS .so is available here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/qgdgnc
Finally fixed the incorrect IDs problem thanks to leong124. Currently only compiled for Windows as my Linux box is broken - any help in this regard would be vastly appreciated: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21683085/sscanf.rar
Fixed a small bug. New download: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21683085/sscanf%281%29.rar
I have FINALLY written an entirely future-compatible, memory-hack-free, global version of sscanf. This will work for all versions of the server, past and present, and can be downloaded from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21683085/sscanf.rar This wasn't done before as I was hesitant about using the GDK which has bugs, and didn't want to use other methods to call "GetPlayerName" for speed reasons, but this version does it a different way entirely (hooks "OnPlayerConnect"). This version also adds the new "k" specifier, described above.
sscanf for 0.3dR2 (500 and 800 player versions): http://www.mediafire.com/?bfp2h0d4231jjdr Thanks to dnee`THA.
Full final 0.3d version. I'm getting fairly smooth at updating things now, which is good! I've also fixed the "Format specifier does not match parameter count" bug. Download source, Linux and Windows plugins here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21683085/sscanf-0.3d.rar Note that this version is for 0.3d ONLY. I removed the other code as maintaining the code to detect which was the current version was getting inefficient.
Thanks to Scott there is a new temporary fix for for 0.3d on Windows using ZeeK's GDK plugin. The download also includes a new version of the streamer plugin for those of you who use it to make the two work together better: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/44207623/source.rar
Fixed another major bug. Everyone using sscanf please update now! Note however that the .so file hasn't been updated yet. Edit: Now it has been thanks to Calg00ne.
Fixed a major bug (thanks pyrodave). The name checks are now case insensitive after lots of requests. They also now refuse names which are too long. The old version had a bug where "Y_Lessmoo" would have matched a player called "Y_Less". Last edited by Y_Less; 18/07/2013 at 06:30 PM. |

Re: [REL] sscanf 2.0
---- I have some questions... What is the defference between boolean and usual integer? Also what is "l" for? It can perceive values like "yes/no", "true/false", "on/off", etc? Or it is something other? ---- Oh I found what you wrote about boolean above (but I still have no clue about the second thing...) ---- Oh god I really should read better ---- Hm, won't this name (the same as the scripted one has) cause a confusion? |

Re: [REL] sscanf 2.0
Nice work.
I agree with the above poster though. This function should not be called sscanf because its format syntax doesn't conform to the C standards like printf() and format() do. |

I may include that later and deprecate the old name. Quote:
Also, minor side note: pawn Code:
sizeof is an operator, not a function, so is evaluated at compile time, meaning you code is actually SLOWER than doing: pawn Code:
Soryy if that was just a quick example, but I don't think many people realise that - your code was good had sizeof been a regular function. Quote:

CNN Health writer Madison Park recently traveled to South Africa to watch the World Cup. She ate well. What can $4 buy you in South Africa? A heaping plate of chicken biryani, served with lentils enough to feed a small family, fried calamari strips, tender, light and perfectly flavored - and none of this is "fast food." Finding a delicious, filling meal on a shoestring budget is not difficult in South Africa, thank goodness, because airfare, World Cup game tickets and accommodations can break the bank.

The notion for the book, entitled "The Pot and How to Use It. The Mystery and Romance of the Rice Cooker" was inspired by rabid reader response to a blog post he'd penned about the versatility of the appliance he and wife Chaz had received as a wedding present. Though Ebert lost a portion of his jaw to cancer several years ago and can no longer speak or eat, he was not daunted. He writes, "To be sure, health problems have prevented me from eating," Ebert writes in the book. "That did not discourage my cooking.

There is a new lead/EPA law coming to your home April 22, 2010, whether you want it or not. For homeowners that own pre 1978 homes, all remodelers whether they are replacing windows, siding, kitches, soffit, facia, etc. may be using lead safe practices in your home. The way the new law reads today is this. If there are children under 6 or pregnant women in the house, lead safe practices need to be recognized and used. This last statement is only a brief section of the law so you will want to look further into the details - for example if a child visits a home twice a week for 3 hours or more - lead safe practices also need to be used. As a father of two little children, I can get behind protecting children from lead poisoning if this was all there was to it.
However, things are much more complicated. There is an opt out clause currently in the law. There is a likelihood that this opt out will be removed. If this happens, any person owning a pre 1978 home will be required to have their remodeler use lead safe practices. You will not have the choice, the EPA will have decided for you. Why pre 1978 homes? This is when lead paint was 'banned.' So if you own a pre 78 home, there is a good chance your home contains some amount of lead.
But how does this effect us as homeowners. First, the costs of doing remodeling projects are going to skyrocket. Using lead safe practices is not inexpensive both from a labor and materials perspective. Also, less and less remodelers will be willing to do work on pre 1978 homes because of the added hassle and expense. If there are less contractors willing to do this work, there will be less competition for people wanting to do work on my home. This will lead to costs increasing even further.
Because as homeowners, we have had to work with smaller budgets, the smaller jobs we have been doing over the past couple of years are going to be economically prohibitive because of the new costs associated with lead safe practices. Because our pre 1978 homes will be tested for lead, when we go to sell our home, we will have to note this on our disclosures. So if we do remodeling work, we are penalized for this compared to our neighbor who also owns a pre 1978 home and doesn't have remodeling work done - or did the work before April 22, 2010. They don't or didn't have to disclose it because lead testing wasn't required.
With the added costs associated with remodeling, we are in essence taxed for it. We want to be rewarded for making our older homes more energy efficient, not penalized for it. I have been writing my lawmakers about this and if you agree, I encourage you to do the same.

Pirates Prospects:
Francisco Liriano,
Shaun Marcum,
Joel Hanrahan
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Pirates, Milwaukee Brewers, Boston Red Sox
TEAMS: Pittsburgh Pirates, Milwaukee Brewers, Boston Red Sox
Earlier this evening, Jon Morosi reported that the Pittsburgh Pirates were still talking with Francisco Liriano. Morosi followed up with a tweet noting that the Pirates were one of the teams interested in free agent Shaun Marcum.
Shaun Marcum, free agent starter, is drawing interest from Padres, Pirates and Rangers, sources say. @mlbonfox
— Jon Morosi (@jonmorosi) January 14, 2013
It would seem that the Pirates aren't locked in with Liriano, especially if they're showing interest in other starting pitchers. They could definitely afford Marcum, since they were set to pay Liriano $12.75 M over two years. They also have some money remaining from the Joel Hanrahan trade. Marcum comes with the same concerns as Liriano, with a bad history of injuries. A big difference is that Marcum has posted strong numbers when healthy, while Liriano has struggled. Liriano fits PNC Park better as a left-handed ground ball pitcher, while Marcum is a right-handed fly ball pitcher. I don't know if we could expect the same numbers from Marcum pitching half his games in PNC, but he wouldn't be a bad sign if the Liriano deal falls through.

Inter-RNA Interaction of Phage φ29 pRNA to Form a Hexameric Complex for Viral DNA Transportation Molecular Cell, Volume 2, Issue 1, 1 July 1998, Pages 149-155 Peixuan Guo, Chunlin Zhang, Chaoping Chen, Kyle Garver and Mark Trottier Summary Ds-DNA viruses package their DNA into a preformed protein shell (procapsid) during maturation. Bacteriophage φ29 requires an RNA (pRNA) to package its genomic DNA into the procapsid. We report here that the pRNA upper and lower loops are involved in RNA/RNA interactions. Mutation in only one loop results in inactive pRNAs. However, mixing of two, three and six inactive mutant pRNAs restores DNA packaging activity as long as an interlocking hexameric ring can be predicted to form by base pairing of the mutated loops in separate RNA molecules. The stoichiometry of pRNA for the packaging of one viral DNA genome is six. Homogeneous pRNA purified from a single band in denaturing gels showed six bands when rerun in native gels. These results suggest that six pRNAs form a hexameric ring by the intermolecular interaction of two RNA loops to serve as part of the DNA transportation machinery.

Mechanism of Scaffolding-Directed Virus Assembly Suggested by Comparison of Scaffolding-Containing and Scaffolding-Lacking P22 Procapsids Biophysical Journal, Volume 76, Issue 6, 1 June 1999, Pages 3267-3277 Pamela A. Thuman-Commike, Barrie Greene, Justine A. Malinski, Michelle Burbea, Amy McGough, Wah Chiu and Peter E. Prevelige Abstract Assembly of certain classes of bacterial and animal viruses requires the transient presence of molecules known as scaffolding proteins, which are essential for the assembly of the precursor procapsid. To assemble a procapsid of the proper size, each viral coat subunit must adopt the correct quasiequivalent conformation from several possible choices, depending upon the T number of the capsid. In the absence of scaffolding protein, the viral coat proteins form aberrantly shaped and incorrectly sized capsids that cannot package DNA. Although scaffolding proteins do not form icosahedral cores within procapsids, an icosahedrally ordered coat/scaffolding interaction could explain how scaffolding can cause conformational differences between coat subunits. To identify the interaction sites of scaffolding protein with the bacteriophage P22 coat protein lattice, we have determined electron cryomicroscopy structures of scaffolding-containing and scaffolding-lacking procapsids. The resulting difference maps suggest specific interactions of scaffolding protein with only four of the seven quasiequivalent coat protein conformations in the T=7 P22 procapsid lattice, supporting the idea that the conformational switching of a coat subunit is regulated by the type of interactions it undergoes with the scaffolding protein. Based on these results, we propose a model for P22 procapsid assembly that involves alternating steps in which first coat, then scaffolding subunits form self-interactions that promote the addition of the other protein. Together, the coat and scaffolding provide overlapping sets of binding interactions that drive the formation of the procapsid. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (769 kb) |
Role of the Scaffolding Protein in P22 Procapsid Size Determination Suggested by T=4 and T=7 Procapsid Structures Biophysical Journal, Volume 74, Issue 1, 1 January 1998, Pages 559-568 Pamela A. Thuman-Commike, Barrie Greene, Justine A. Malinski, Jonathan King and Wah Chiu Abstract Assembly of bacteriophage P22 procapsids requires the participation of ∼300 molecules of scaffolding protein in addition to the 420 coat protein subunits. In the absence of the scaffolding, the P22 coat protein can assemble both wild-type-size and smaller size closed capsids. Both sizes of procapsid assembled in the absence of the scaffolding protein have been studied by electron cryomicroscopy. These structural studies show that the larger capsids have T=7 icosahedral lattices and appear the same as wild-type procapsids. The smaller capsids possess T=4 icosahedral symmetry. The two procapsids consist of very similar penton and hexon clusters, except for an increased curvature present in the T=4 hexon. In particular, the pronounced skewing of the hexons is conserved in both sizes of capsid. The T=7 procapsid has a local non-icosahedral twofold axis in the center of the hexon and thus contains four unique quasi-equivalent coat protein conformations that are the same as those in the T=4 procapsid. Models of how the scaffolding protein may direct these four coat subunit types into a T=7 rather than a T=4 procapsid are presented. Abstract | Full Text | PDF (785 kb) |

Huaming Fang▵, Peng Jing▵, Farzin Haque and Peixuan Guo,
Corresponding authorLinear double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) viruses package their genomes into preformed protein shells via nanomotors using ATP as an energy source. The central hub of the bacteriophage φ29 DNA-packaging motor contains a 3.6-nm channel for dsDNA to enter during packaging and to exit during infection. The negatively charged interior channel wall is decorated with a total of 48 positively charged lysine residues displayed as four 12-lysine rings from the 12 gp10 subunits that enclose the channel. The standard notion derived from many models is that these uniquely arranged, positively charged rings play active roles in DNA translocation through the channel. In this study, we tested this prevailing view by examining the effect of mutating these basic lysines to alanines, and assessing the impact of altering the pH environment. Unexpectedly, mutating these basic lysine residues or changing the pH to 4 or 10, which could alter the charge of lysines, did not measurably impair DNA translocation or affect the one-way traffic property of the channel. The results support our recent findings regarding the dsDNA packaging mechanism known as the "push through a one-way valve".
