Fatter for longer (sigh)
Here's a doubly embarrassing confession. First it involves my use of a construction that I love to make fun of. Secondly my spontaneously generated example is unfortunately also a true sentence.
I was trying on four dresses that have been stored in the attic for a while to see if I could avoid having to shop for a formal dress in Chicago on Friday for the Friday black tie dinner that precedes the Saturday honorary doctorate. I didn't think I was going to be able to fit into any of them, since I've gained back all the weight I lost around 2008-9 and am now close to an all-time maximum. But to my in some ways happy surprise, I found that I could sort of fit into two of them, including the best one. And my surprise was expressed (just talking silently to myself, but obviously in real sentences, since this sentence immediately caught my attention as soon as I "said" it) as "Gosh, I've been fatter for longer than I thought". (The happy part is I may not have to go shopping on Friday, or at least it won't be obligatory to buy a new dress, which takes off the pressure that accompanies last-minute obligatory shopping.)
I still reject that sentence, even though I said it .

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Won't Be Powered By Mir
Published on 19 November 2013 10:55 AM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
30 Comments
A virtual Ubuntu Developer Summit is taking place this week. The event was kicked off again by Jono Bacon and Mark Shuttleworth. During the event a few interesting tidbits of information were learned about Ubuntu Touch and Mir.
First and foremost, Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on the desktop won't be Mir-based, or rather XMir. We've been wondering
whether Mir will be used in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
the XMir support was delayed from Ubuntu 13.10
It was affirmed today that Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will still be shipping with the stable and proven Unity 7 experience, which is designed around using an X.Org Server with Compiz. It doesn't appear they will try for using XMir by default in this next Long-Term Support release with Unity 7. It was also said today that point releases to Ubuntu 14.04 LTS will not be adding in Mir or Unity 8.
Mark also said that Canonical is in talks with multiple companies about shipping Ubuntu Touch devices. However, there weren't many details given and any Ubuntu Touch devices are still likely several quarters out.

I just took a look at some of the problems from the semi-final competition. Yikes! I would have had a hard time with them even after a full course of freshman physics. I counted 5 semi-finalists from Palo Alto. We have such incredibly great schools here. I can't understand the negative opinions you hear on these message boards. Folks don't know how lucky we are.
Good luck with the competition!

Gold medals for both of the Palo Alto kids! Congratulations!
The PA Weekly should run a story on this. It's amazing that one school district can produce two gold medalists in a single year.

The hotel was more like motel environment with bare minimums. It is simple but effective.

The hotel was rundown and smelled badly. The room, however, was clean and the beds were comfortable enough.

The reviews I read talked about bedbugs and unfriendly staff. How wrong they were! Our room was immaculate (rm.116), we check over and under the sheets and there was absolutely NO evidence of bed bugs. The staff, who was represented by the woman at the check-in desk was very friendly and warm to us.

June 9: The Council of Brawlers is opened
June 10: The Council of Brawlers becomes officialWar discussion starts,
The first Team builder challenge is announced
Ahalt submits first clan banner
June 11: Limitless is asked to test all members for upcoming war discussions; he accepts
June 12: Green Eagle Submits two new bannersAll banners are made into url links
Drake discuses animated userbars with Mystry Mew
June 13: The first clan event is about ready to begin. The team builder challenge will commence with every member pming Drake three pokemon submissions (whether they be standard or gimmick) that they feel will benefit the team type choosen; stall. From there the entire clan will build around the ideas that we feel would be most relevant and effective in the current metagame. Once built, participating members will then ladder the created team to its peak using user created alts on a decided server; smogon.
Submissions may now commence. Please include details as to why the sets you have choosen are beneficial for our team
June 18: Submissions are in; all submissions will be reviewed todayEverybody start practicing, its about time to give PE2K a display of power; Brawler style.
June 19: With seemingly no progress in the recruitment phase, the process of applying may change pending no progress is made after the completion of the first month[List][*]Limitless wins his tryout battle for the Smogon World Cup (Cheers XD)[*]A last minute event may be sprung upon everyone fathers day (tommorow). A four man tournament [i]may[i/] take place provided everyone responds to this via pm wish to join. The tournament (Who's Your Daddy) will only happen if four entrants request to join by tommorow (via pm). The tournament will run until July 1st (to solve time issues). The first four players will be randomly paired and pitted against one another in this single elimination tournament.
June 28: A few updates today. The "Who's Your Daddy" mini tournament is still in on hold. Skottles advances to the finals, Ahalts return is still being awaited to complete the tournament.
Very Achieved #11 on PO's Challenge cup ladder!
(Keep it up Very)
The first month of immunity is beginning to creak to an end; with no one having been recruited, we still stand strong with the notice of a few talented battlers practicing in they're free time growing better and better (notably Very).
I would like to re-establish my thoughts on the Team Builder Challenge by saying; "please use the team limitless submitted". That will be our practice team for this challenge. Practice ends in two weeks. No tournament, laddering, nor any other form "testing" will be implemented this time around. It will be on a strict "watch battle" notion. If times cannot be set up to view battles, please send me 3 complete battles (peferably a win and two losses)
June 30: First things first, we've (those of you that wifi battle) been asked to participate in these tournaments:The "Summer SmackDown" can be found here
The "Summer 2010 Grand Wifi Tournament" can be found here
I'd like to ask that as many of you join and participate as you can. I'm hoping PE2K will become more active this Summer, and to have you all making things like this possible by joining would give my vision an amazing jump start.
However, it'd also greatly amuse me if any of you were to win the tournament.
Mystery M3W does another amazing job with his latest work:
This can be found with the other great banner submissions. Please thank Mew for his great work.
July 3: We are now approaching our last week of "immunity", war discussion should officially begin today. We have six days to come up with a plan of action. Once again, due to everyone's time frame being different, I'll ask that you all please pm me your thoughts, and if possible provide a list with your top three war choices and why. Before we attempted this, we got slight insight as to what people wanted, this time around it's the real deal. Any ideas or concerns should be also pmd to me so that they may be addressed aswell. Thank you all for your patience this month; I imagine with all the practice you've all put into this last month, your all raring to go. Let's do what others fail to do and set our course of motion into action!
July 4th my own thoughts of what we should do will be sent out once i've recieved everyone else's. However, my opinion is non-binding and up for debate if need be.
Hope to hear from you all soon. And please, do be careful this holiday weekend.
July 4: Our friend Mystery Mew does it again! Please be sure to thank him if using his creation. Also have a great fourth of July
We also have a new member; Everyone please welcome Fierce Deity!
July 10: There's been a few updates since last week. Firstly, the tournament makes very little progress as I (ETD) get a by so that it may be complete. So currently it stands at:
Round 1
Elite Trainer Drake v Ahalt (by)
Skottles v Verystrait42
Final Match
Elite Trainer Drake v Skottles
Limitless leaves the clan; good luck in the future.
The "war discussion" will not happen, instead, we will let nature take its course and use the natural talent that's gotten us where we are before all of this. In other words, I trust all of you to overcome any obstacle thrown at us.
July 15: So I've been working on quite a few projects lately. Though I haven't informed anyone of my intentions, I thought I'd inform you all when I'd made some lead way with my goal.
So currently I've been chatting with some old friends of mine who's abilities are fairly above average as far as battling goes. By some slim miracle I'd managed stumble upon some long lost ones who manage a xat as well as forum (Perhaps the most popular pokemon related xat).
From here I offered my services so long as I had a shot at becoming the forum administator aswell as we be given a "home" (or base of operations as I like to call it) on the site.
Reluctantly, he accepted, and with that operation "Ditto" is in effect.
In the coming weeks, I will be working over at the new site building our new home.
the link to the site can be found here, the xat can be found heresta
for further information please pm me.
Our friend Mew does it again with his latest (and perhaps sexiest) creation yet; introducing mascot to be (?):
August 16: It's been awhile since the last update so here it is. Though with there not being much in the way activity, there isn't much to note.
Firstly, I see it feasible to open the access to joining. At this stage in time, our current methods are not best for our situation.
Secondly, Mew finishes his task with his final work of art:
Mew, I greatly thank you for the task you completed, you work as though your a member of the family, and for that, I respect you. I'll consider you an un-offcial member, don't be a stranger.
Lastly, I'd like to say with summer ending, I'm hoping we can all regroup and prepare for war. I would have liked to have started earlier, but do to previous cirumstances, that measure wasnt suitable for the time. So hurry back (but enjoy yourselves)

I've got a terrific opportunity for one or two of you.
This year, for the first time, we're having full-time summer interns here at Nieman Lab.
Hopefully, if you're reading this, you already know the kind of work we do here: We're interested in journalism innovation and the future of the news. Our summer intern(s) will be right in the thick of that work, reporting and writing stories on traditional news organizations, online-native startups, nonprofit outlets, technology companies, social media platforms, and all the other players influencing how we learn about our world.
This isn't a busy-work internship; we can all get our own coffee, thanks. Along with coming up with story ideas and seeing them through, our interns will share in the work we do on social media, like helping run our Twitter account, along with working on whatever other interesting projects we come up with. It'll be a great experience.
The basics: The internship is 10-12 weeks long. Exact dates and length can be tweaked for your schedule, but we're probably looking for someone to start in late May or early June. You'll be based here in Cambridge, in our office at Lippmann House (pictured above in more autumnal times). Cambridge is really nice in the summer.
Pay: We pay $13.75 an hour, and it's a 35-hour work week here. You can do the math. (Journalists should be able to do math!) No health insurance or other benefits — sorry. You should be aware that, while this is more money than lots of other internships offer (i.e., it's a positive integer), this won't be enough money to live luxuriously in Harvard Square — you'll likely be hunting Craigslist for a sublet and a roomie.
Who we're looking for: There's no restriction on age or experience, but we expect this'll be a great opportunity for current j-school grad students or recent graduates. Our interns should be bright, motivated, and already have some reporting chops. They should also be ready to geek out about the intersection of journalism, technology, business, and sociology we focus on. Well-rounded nerds, basically.
Also, please note that we're not in a position to obtain work visas for international applicants, so you must be already eligible to work in the United States to be an intern.
Course credit: We don't offer any credit (Harvard doesn't even have a journalism school). But if you're a currently enrolled student, undergraduate or graduate, I'd be happy to write a letter to your university at summer's end, detailing the work you did, if that makes a difference to your home institution.
Please follow these instructions carefully.
To apply, email me at firstname.lastname@example.com, using the subject line "Nieman Lab intern application." Your email should include four things:
Do all that by 5 p.m. on Friday, March 2 — that's about a week and a half from today. Good luck.

To Jennie O'Connell, the heavy rain that fell Tuesday night and into Wednesday of last week was an act of God. It followed Monday's decision by Judge Eric Lundell that a former Hudson priest probably murdered her husband, Dan, three and a half years ago. "When it was pouring so hard, all I could think was that God was cleansing our area. He was washing away all the pain, all the sorrow, all the hurt," she said Friday.
Two men who say they were molested by priests as children held a news conference in front of Hudson City Hall last Thursday to demand that Catholic Church officials do more to end the victimization of children. "Our point is simple, Mr. O'Connell died because he tried to save other children from begin assaulted.
The addition of an obstetrics and gynecology specialist at the Hudson Health Campus is the beginning of a trend, says Christopher Cook, director of marketing for Hudson Hospital. "That is what the community has asked us to do in developing this facility - offer a higher level of specialty," Cook says. "This is one of the first things out of the chute. In the future, we hope to have that in cardiology and cancer care. ... This is the beginning of a large upswing of our qualifications." The present excitement is over the arrival of Dr.
Christin Casa De Calvo didn't have the kind of experience that organizers describe when promoting international youth exchange programs. She was supposed to return from India next spring feeling that the world is a friendly place, ready for a lifetime of international understanding. Instead, she arrived home Sept.
Hudson Fire Chief Jim Frye appealed to the City Council Monday night for construction of a second fire and ambulance station. The fire department and St. Croix Emergency Medical Services have outgrown their current facilities in the Public Safety Building in downtown Hudson and desperately need more space for offices and apparatus, Frye said in a written communication to the council. The memo outlined a schedule for construction of a second station that Frye said has been approved by the Hudson Area Joint Fire Advisory Board.
St. Croix County has a new tool for keeping retailers and their employees from selling tobacco products to minors. Last Thursday, the County Board amended the county ordinance banning tobacco sales to minors to include penalties for retailers and store clerks who knowingly violate the ordinance. The ordinance makes an individual who sells cigarettes or other tobacco products to someone under the age of 18 subject to a forfeiture of up to $500. The actual amount of the fine for the first offense hasn't been established yet, according to Sheriff Dennis Hillstead.
It's not just your imagination if you think you're noticing more signs in Hudson advertising cigarettes. When Minnesota increased its cigarette tax to $1.23 per pack on Aug. 1, local retailers decided to let our neighbors know they can buy their smokes for less here. Wisconsin's cigarette tax is 77 cents per pack.
A bloody life-or-death struggle took place inside Lil' Honey's Boutique Tuesday morning of last week while unsuspecting neighbors went about their business and motorists passed by on Second Street. For 15 minutes or more, 5-foot-2, 120-some pound Mary Johnson used every self-defense tactic she could recall to fight off an apparently psychotic 23-year-old man who later told police he had set out that day to kill someone. "She saved her life. I am convinced of that," said Hudson Police Chief Richard Trende.
The city of Hudson will give financial backing to two initiatives aimed at encouraging people to shop and eat at Hudson's locally owned businesses following action at Monday night's City Council meeting. The council agreed to pay $500 for a membership in the new Hudson Independent Business Association and to contribute $195 for a billboard on Interstate 94 in Minnesota that will direct motorists to downtown Hudson. Sandee Madigan, owner of the Elan clothing shop, and Shelli Erck, owner of Hudson Flower Shop, described the objectives of the new business association prior to the vote
The two men removed from a June 14 meeting of the Hudson Board of Education have withdrawn their complaint to the Hudson Police and Fire Commission about the conduct of the police officers involved in the incident. Instead, Curt Weese and Marion Shaw and four of their supporters - James Baker, Mark Pribonic, William Danielson and Steve Hermsen - are opting for an internal police investigation of the matter. The group decided to pursue their complaint through the police department at an Aug. 10 meeting of the Police and Fire Commission, according to chairman Thomas P.

As systems administrators, application logs are often the key to our success, but also our biggest hassle. They provide clues to what's going on when things go awry, and in those situations more detail is generally better. But when you don't actually know something is wrong, and just want to get a sense for whether things are normal, more detail can create so much noise that it's all but impossible to glean any useful information.
In those situations, you'd rather just have statistical information about what's in your logs. In this article, I present a simple and easy solution to turn your logs into useful graphs, in real time. If you ever need to measure the volume of your logs, or perhaps graph the frequency of certain log events, then read on.
The tools
The solution I present uses four key tools:
- Log4J (though plain log files would fit as well)
- Logstash
- StatsD
- Monitis
With so many moving parts, you might be tempted to think this could be an overcomplicated solution. But in fact — as in the long tradition of Unix command line tools — it is a composition of simple tools each doing one job very well. As with files piped from one Unix command to another, these four components act as a pipeline for log events, with each piece adding value to the stream along the way.
All of the log events in this article start inside of Log4J. If you run Java applications, then this provides an easy way to hook into your logs, to peel off an event stream that you want to see graphed in Monitis. But, Log4J could easily be replaced in this solution with plain log files, syslog, or any number of other logging frameworks.
The key modification that we make to Log4J is to add a SocketAppender that sends a copy of selected Loggers to our logstash server.
The role of logstash in the pipeline is twofold. First, it listens for connections from Java application servers, accepting streams of logs when they connect. Second, it filters, modifies, and routes those streams to the appropriate outputs. In this case, we'll be handling all of the incoming streams by notifying StatsD each time a log event is received, without actually sending the content of each event.
Logstash will be receiving log events very frequently, but Monitis only wants to receive updates at most once per minute. To resolve this mismatch, StatsD acts as our log stream bean counter, allowing logstash to send increment messages each time an event is received. StatsD records these in counters for each type of log message, and then sends the counts on to Monitis every 60 seconds.
Finally, we get to the end of the pipeline, and Monitis receives the count messages. These are added to the appropriate custom monitors, which are automatically created if they don't already exist. Once the data is in Monitis, it can be graphed in the Web UI, or used to send alerts when a rate of log events is outside of a user-specified threshold.
The gory details
Now that you've seen the overview, let's take a look at the configuration details that make it happen. Don't worry, since each component in the pipeline is doing a simple job, there's really not much to it.
Install and configure the software
Let's look at installation details for the tools in each step in the pipeline. I'm assuming that you already have Java applications using Log4J. If not, modifying the pipeline to read from log files, receive from syslog, or other options is pretty straightforward, but outside the scope of this article. For that, refer to the logstash documentation on how to set up other kinds of logstash inputs.

Utah's Battle Over Marriage Equality Rages On
January 3, 2014 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Associate Director of Digital Media
Today, lawyers for the plaintiffs in the Utah marriage equality case, Kitchen v. Herbert, filed a request urging Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor to allow same-sex marriages to continue while the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals considers the state's appeal.
The move is a direct response to Utah state officials, who on December 31 requested that the Supreme Court halt marriage equality until a decision is reached by the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Justice Sotomayor is responsible for handing motions, such as emergency requests, for the Tenth Circuit, and may at any time either rule independently, or refer consideration to the entire Court.
Though the court battle rages on, loving, committed same-sex couples continue to tie the knot in the Beehive State after U.S. District Judge Robert Shelby ruled on December 20 that the state's ban on same-sex marriage was unconstitutional.

X.Org 7.4 Release Planned For Sep 10
Published on 06 September 2008 05:46 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
1 Comment
Mesa 7.1
was released near the end of August and
X Server 1.5.0
was released just earlier this week, but the release of X.Org 7.4 consisting of all the latest X packages has yet to make it out the door.
While the developers attending the
X Developers' Summit
had taken the afternoon off to entertain themselves within the
's gift shop, Daniel Stone had announced X.Org 7.4 will be released on September 10, 2008. He announced this date on the
X.Org Wiki
. This means
X.Org 7.4
is arriving one year and four days after the release of
X.Org 7.3
... So much for this six-month release cycle. But if everything goes according to
Keith Packard's plans
, a major update (
X Server 1.6
) will be out this year already as an update to the 1.5 release.

Just when it seemed awards season had been put to rest, along comes the Oscars of the Internet, the 13th Annual Webby Awards Celebrity Nominees, which were revealed Tuesday.
Singling out the Web work of such personalities as Sarah Silverman, Jimmy Fallon and Paris Hilton, the Webby Awards honor online excellence, encompassing Web sites, film and video, interactive ads and mobile Web sites.
Among the celebrity-site nominees:

A second chance at love didn't work.
Despite a reconciliation that gave them both cause for laughs, late-night talk-show host Jimmy Kimmel, 41, and comedian Sarah Silverman, 38, have split, a source confirms to PEOPLE.
No reason was revealed for their second breakup. The funny duo dated for five years before they called it quits last July. But they rekindled their relationship just a few months later. "They're taking it slow," a source told PEOPLE last fall. "They're on the road back to being together."
The pair even managed to poke fun of their first split on Jimmy Kimmel Live! last October when she was a guest and they exchanged awkward silences and quips like, "Did you make sweet love to anyone while we were apart?"

Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman are back together.
"They're taking it slow," says a source. "They're on the road back to being together again."
The comedians, who ended their five-year relationship in July, have recently been spotted on dates on both coasts.
On Sept. 28, Kimmel, 40, and Silverman, 37, enjoyed a laughter-filled dinner together at L.A.'s Pattaya Thai Restaurant, says a source, and left holding hands.
Less than a week later, they attended pal Howard Stern's Oct. 3 wedding at New York City's Le Cirque restaurant, where Kimmel was spotted wrapping his arms around Silverman's waist and playfully grabbing her backside in plain view of photographers.
Reps for the comedians had no comment.

Sarah Silverman may have won an Emmy award for a song boasting of a romance with Matt Damon, but it was her ex-boyfriend, Jimmy Kimmel, whom the comedian thanked from the stage.
"Let's be honest, Matt Damon had very little to do with this being popular," Silverman, 37, said while accepting her award at the Creative Arts Emmys for the salty music video "I'm F------ Matt Damon" at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles.
"Thanks to the person for whom this whole video was made: Jimmy Kimmel, who broke my heart – ohh, who'll always have a place in my heart," Silverman continued.
Originally posted 08/01/2008 10:15AM
No joking matter?
Sarah Silverman – who has been silent since her split with Jimmy Kimmel last month – briefly addressed the break-up during her stand-up performance Thursday night.
"Did someone tell you I'm going through a hard time?" Silverman, 37, jokingly told an audience of 300 at West Hollywood's Largo at the Coronet. (A few sympathetic cries came from the front of the crowd.)
But the edgy comedienne – who famously called Britney Spears's two sons "adorable mistakes" – quickly moved on and avoided jokes about Kimmel, 40, and relationships in general.
Originally posted 07/22/2008 07:40AM
Sarah Silverman's longtime friend Jon Hamm says the comedian is coping as well as can be expected after her recent breakup with Jimmy Kimmel.
"She's doing great," the Emmy-nominated Hamm told PEOPLE at Monday's Hollywood premiere of the second season of his acclaimed AMC series Mad Men. (The series resumes on the cable channel this Sunday, while the DVD set of the first season has just been released.)
But, the actor added, "It's a tough time for everybody ... you know that's never easy when something like that happens."
Originally posted 07/17/2008 11:30AM
For Sarah Silverman, this has been a week of good news and bad news.
First, the bad: On Monday, it was reported, she and boyfriend of five years, Jimmy Kimmel broke up.
Now, the good: On Thursday Silverman, 37, was one of those lucky enough to be nominated for an Emmy.
But, now for the weird news: the TV Academy nod is linked to what she did on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live!, an over-the-top music video in which she and the Sexiest Man Alive flaunted their (fictitious and funny) affair to Kimmel, all set to music in a ditty titled, "I'm F------ Matt Damon".
Originally posted 07/14/2008 03:10PM
Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman have ended their relationship after five years of dating.
"Jimmy and Sarah have and will have no further comment," Kimmel's rep Lewis Kay and Silverman's rep Amy Zvi confirmed to PEOPLE in a joint statement.
VanityFair.com first reported the split.
The couple's over-the-top videos about fictional flings with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck became huge Internet hits since airing on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live! in February.
PEOPLE even named the late-night talk-show host and the star of Comedy Central's The Sarah Silverman Program its Funniest Couple Alive earlier this year.
At the time Silverman, 37, told PEOPLE their relationship worked "because we really, really, really like each other. He's kind and funny and maybe the most thoughtful person I know."
"Sarah is funny and smart and good to look at," said Kimmel, 40. "Plus, she likes fat guys. What more could I ask?"

So at BlizzCon this past week we got the announcement of a new Hearthstone expansion. The news that it was Goblins vs. Gnomes made everyone laugh, until they found out it was coming in December! Then everyone got excited, until they started playing with the new cards. One hundred and twenty new cards to be exact. That is a massive expansion and Blizzard's Team Five is on a role with a huge success in Hearthstone until the Goblins and Gnomes blow the game up...literally.Reported on Nov 13, 2014
The Hearthstone team has posted a short notice on the official site letting players know that, at least as of this writing, several thousand accounts have been banned for utilizing third party programs, or "bots", to play the game.Reported on Oct 27, 2014
The latest developer blog has been posted on the Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft site that lets fans know that the team has been hard at work and that Android users should see a version of the game before the end of the year. The delay, it is explained, is largely due to overhauling the interface in a way that works, hence the development team needing more time to perfect it.Reported on Oct 21, 2014
Good Gaming has announced that it will be hosting a special Open Invitational Tournament for Hearthstone that will include a $10,000 guaranteed prize pool. Good Gaming is focused on players of all ability levels joining the tournament with the top three hundred moving on to the cash payout rounds.Reported on Oct 15, 2014
With Hearthstone available for PC and iPad, Blizzard has amassed some pretty impressive numbers. Over twenty million players have taken part in Hearthstone in just over six months since the free to play title launched.Reported on Sep 15, 2014
Blizzard has announced that Hearthstone Season 6 has officially kicked off and players are invited to battle their way to the top of the heap. In addition, a new card back has been revealed.Reported on Sep 04, 2014
We caught up with Hearthstone lead designer Eric Dodds at this year's PAX Prime to discuss the recently released Naxxramas adventure mode, game balance, and what lies ahead for Blizzard's wildly successful digital card game.Reported on Sep 02, 2014
Blizzard has announced that the latest Hearthstone update to the single player adventure, Curse of Naxxramas, has been released. Called "Frostwyrm Lair", players will take on a flying undead dragon on their way to Naxxramas's conclusion, soon to be revealed.Reported on Aug 20, 2014
Players looking for the next single-player Hearthstone challenge will be happy to know that the Curse of Naxxramas Construct Wing has been added to the game. The Construct Wing is the fourth of five parts of the Curse of Naxxramas addition to Hearthstone.Reported on Aug 13, 2014
The third wing in the Hearthstone single-player campaign, Curse of Naxxramas, has opened up. The Military Quarter joins the Plague and Arachnid Quarters with two more yet to come.Reported on Aug 06, 2014
Truth be told, I hadn't played Hearthstone in a couple of months due to the game's stagnating meta (Zoo, anyone?), but Naxxramas represented an opportunity to shake all of that up, so I dove right back in last week with the Arachnid Quarter. I have to say I am really enjoying Blizzard's approach to expanding the game's card set with adventure modes. It's a neat combination of new cards and new content. But there is one problem: the wait is killing me!Reported on Jul 30, 2014
Hearthstone's first 'adventure', Curse of Naxxramas, is set to be released on Tuesday, July 22nd. Naxxramas will be released episodically, with one wing per week for five weeks hitting live service. The first wing, The Arachnid Quarter, will be free to play for the launch event, scheduled to last approximately a month.Reported on Jul 17, 2014
Fans of Hearthstone and those looking forward to more about the single player "Naxxramas" campaign, will be interested to note the price breakdown. The full Curse of Naxxramas campaign (all five wings), can be purchased for $24.99 or for $6.99 per wing (with certain discounts based on other wings already owned). Player will also be able to purchase wings of Naxxramas with in-game gold. Check out the image below for the full price breakdown.Reported on Jul 08, 2014
Hearthstone fans rejoice! Blizzard has posted a brief announcement on the official forums to tell players that the single-player campaign, Curse of Naxxramas, will be released in July.Reported on Jun 27, 2014
Thanks to eagle-eyed MMORPG.com user, Nadia, we now know that Hearthstone is now available for iPad in the United States and in other countries not included in the version released earlier this month. Previously, Hearthstone was only available in select countries. The US version of the game can be downloaded from iTunes.Reported on Apr 16, 2014
Blizzard has announced a new single player adventure mode for Hearthstone. The first campaign is titled "Curse of Naxxramas" and will give players the opportunity to take their favorite deck into the famous floating citadel from World of Warcraft's Northrend location. Players will face off against the boss of each of Naxxramas' five wings.Reported on Apr 11, 2014
Blizzard has announced that its card game, Hearthstone, has officially been released for iPad in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Players can get hold of the game via the iPad App Store. Blizzard expects to roll out Hearthstone for more countries in the near future.Reported on Apr 02, 2014
Blizzard Entertainment has announced that Fight Night has made a return on ESGN. The Hearthstone edition of the eSports series continues through next week, with players vying for over $14,000 in prizes.Reported on Mar 28, 2014
My limited experience with TCGs remained limited until the most unlikely of CCGs grabbed my attention. As someone who generally loathes the Warcraft IP (yeah, yeah), I would have never in a thousand years expected that the one CCG that would hook me would be Hearthstone, the Warcraft themed card game developed by Blizzard.Reported on Mar 19, 2014
Blizzard's TCG, Hearthstone, has now officially hit retail release in North America. The game has been patched for release. Along with the news of the release, Blizzard also announced the World of Warcraft Hearthsteed for players who win three matches in the game.Reported on Mar 11, 2014

Results from a new study on seniors' use of social networking sites suggest that older adults who use Facebook may experience an improvement in cognitive abilities.
Janelle Wohltmann, a graduate student at the University of Arizona set out to see whether teaching older adults how to use the social networking site Facebook could help improve their cognitive performance and make them feel more socially connected.
Wohltmann, along with UA's head of psychology, Betty Glisky, gathered 42 participants for the study, ranging in age from 68 to 91. The seniors completed a series of exams measuring social variables, such as their levels loneliness and social support, as well as their cognitive abilities.
The participants were then divided in to three groups. The first group was trained on how to use Facebook, and asked to become "friends" with fellow members of the group and post messages at least once per day. The next was trained to use Penzu.com, an online diary site in which entries are kept private, with no social sharing component. This group was also instructed to post daily, using only short messages to mimic the length of messages typically posted on Facebook. The last group was told they were on a "wait-list" for Facebook training, which they did not actually complete.
Eight weeks later, all three groups were reevaluated using tests similar to those they took at the beginning of the study. The group that learned to use Facebook scored 25 percent higher than they did prior to training. The other two groups saw no significant change in performance.
While the results indicate that using Facebook enhanced the seniors' cognitive abilities, more research is need to discover whether the improvement was due to the social nature of the site, the mental activity of learning something completely new, or a combination of those two factors.
"The idea evolved from two bodies of research," Wohltmann said. "One, there is evidence to suggest that staying more cognitively engaged – learning new skills, not just becoming a couch potato when you retire but staying active – leads to better cognitive performing. It's kind of this 'use it or lose it' hypothesis."
"There's also a large body of literature showing that people who are more socially engaged, are less lonely, have more social support and are more socially integrated are also doing better cognitively in older age," she said.
Wohltmann added that although teaching seniors how to use social media sites would be beneficial to them socially and cognitively, it is important that they understand how to use the technology properly, so they can keep their private information secure.

As of this morning (11/19/2014) I was prompted to tap my eVgo RFID card to start a charge at the Brentwood MAPCO station at Moores Lane. The firmware has been updated and this DC Fast Charger unit now charges for up to 30 minutes per session instead of stopping at 80%, that at least is a welcome change.
There was no indication if a fee was levied or not or how much. NRG/eVgo's website is not very informative. I have an account with them, but I could find no way to login and examine transactions against my account. I have sent an enquiry to customer service asking how I can check the balance of my account. No charges have hit my credit card yet so there is no evidence of direct billing. It's quite possible that the unit now requires an RFID card but billing has yet to be established, it really isn't clear. I look forward to a response from their customer service.
I also noticed while I was on the eVgo website that their "Network Access" plan which gave unlimited DC Fast charging for $49.95 per month is no longer available. I will probably subscribe to their "On the Go" plan which will give me discounted access to the DC Fast chargers for $14.95 per month plus usage charges.
