So Mount & Blade Warband, arguably the best RPG to be released this century (I know, that's saying A LOT), is coming out with an expansion next month, Viking Conquest. I will no doubt invest another 300 hours in this game before the year is out. It's AWESUM. I want to find out how many of you are fans of the game, or at least curious enough to try it. Steam has it on sale and I've got a few giftable copies to share with anyone interested trying it. Trust me when I say it's everything RPG lovers hope RPGs to be: violent, political, diplomatic, dynamic, romantic and of course full of adventure. There's no game currently on the market which offers nearly as much untold adventure as this franchise-- and I mean untold literally. You never know what's going to happen to you, what friends … [Read more...]
Doone's Life
It's that time of year where things get intensely busy. It was already pretty busy before I had all of my babies, but now it's all I can do to know the date! Writing has been sparse because I've been scarce. Between working, family, and making time to live life, writing has fallen by the wayside. I suspect this will continue through the end of the year until after the holidays. So with that, here's an update to give you all a warm fuzzy feeling about my absence. What you need to know: IT'S NOT YOU! It's me, k? As some of you may have heard, my fourth baby is on the way and we're expecting them in January. No, I don't know the sex of the newest -- we never find out before hand and it's been a pleasant surprise each and every time. Right now I have two girls and one boy who's the … [Read more...]

Is PvP a Cover for Bullying?
So I missed the entire blogfest in the middle of October where several bloggers wrote pieces about open world PvP in MMOs, a time-honored favorite subject of game bloggers. Aywren at Sygnus started a lively discussion about the psychology of carebears and Murf, Izlain, Eri, and Belghast wrote their own responses. The comments sections of each have many others in the community giving their points of view. One point mentioned by a couple of players was that part of the reason they stay way from PvP is because of what is essentially bullying. And those bullies give the entire PvP community a poor reputation and it's sort of a vicious cycle: fewer people PvP than PvE because of bullying so fewer people PvP than PvE. Not all PvPers enjoy the same form of PvP. There are lots of players who … [Read more...]
Bragtoberfest, I am Proud of You!
Thank you to Izlain at Me vs. Myself and I for putting together a great month of gaming for bloggers. I told him before that I thought Bragotoberfest is an amazing idea and he was right as well when he told me that gamers need some event like this RIGHT NOW. Gamergate has made it easy to put aside the joy of games because things have been so (rightfully) serious. But Bragtoberfest has been celebrating the very thing that's made any of us want to write about games in any kind of way. I managed to convince several of you to play some games with me this month and I want to thank you for entertaining me! Some of you got Pacman DX+, some of you learned the awesome of Mountain. It's been real and Doone's Peak, I'm proud to announce, has dodged annihliation twice and is still standing! None … [Read more...]
The Night Sky Brightens
About a day ago I learned that Jerleminara, Twitch streamer and former employee at Riot, killed herself. Yesterday was actually a good day, but it took everything I had to keep smiling after reading what happened. I don't remember who told me the news, but when I heard I went looking for articles and found only 1. Jerle shot herself in the head with a double barrel shotgun. She did it after posting a goodbye letter on Facebook, which was what made me sad. Up until then my mood was fine, I didn't know her personally, but deaths are always sad. After reading, my emotions were kind of high just imagining trying to talk my friend down from a ledge. The replies to her letter are many of her friends looking for her address, trying to get police to her house, and begging her to call a suicide … [Read more...]
Of Mountains of Love
This is just a friendly reminder and invitation for the uninitiated to become part of the Bragtoberfest mountain range.It's just a spur of the moment idea in which we all become one with our mountains. Mountain is a "game", the object of which is to raise a great mountain, nourish it and cherish it. All you have to do is let it play in the background while you're doing whatever you want. I even found a way to make it into my screensaver! Love your mountain. Be one with your mountain. Then post pictures of your mountain for Bragtoberfest! … [Read more...]
Sexy or Sexualized No. 9
I present you with Katarina from League of Legends! Caveat: Riot has really done a great job in recent years of acknowledging the shortcomings of their art and in diversifying it. They won't be getting rid of sexualized characters ...something that continues to be problematic. But I think they've been trying to be more inclusive. That said, equal opportunity sexualization isn't a great solution. Is there anything inherently wrong with sexualization? … [Read more...]
Running with the Shadows
I'm a Rigger. Drones? Yep! Submachine gun? I got it. Grenades? Of course. Slap on a few implants for enhanced deadliness and I'm a dimmer, an almost human killing machine. It's a perfect blend of practicality and death. It's a dark world out there, filled with mostly shadows that me and my crew slink beneath. Shadow doesn't even begin to describe my dystopic existence. Human includes all the races - trolls, elves and orcs. But there's "normal" culture and all the rest are some variation of almost-human, monster culture.Funny how that works out because we all look like monsters down here, but what passes for normal is particularly gruesome. In the shadows we call the Others meta-humans. But in deep reality we're all human in the only ways that matter. Shadowrunning makes a very strong … [Read more...]
#Bragtoberfest Achievement Round-up
Not as much of a round-up as I want, but I've got links to other round-ups! To see the first week's results Izlain has got you covered. The first Saturday of Bragtober had bloggers get together for some MOBA battles in Strife. My own triumphs this week: Pacman DX+ : I've unlocked 11 of 12 Steam achievements. Little Chris scored 1.3 million in a 5 minute timed match of Pacman, strengthening his claim to the Little Gamer Throne! Banished: The town of Rowler is promising. I've finally scored a couple of achievements which are pretty much endurance challenges. The longer you play, the more inevitable the achievements become. I've got 3! Cook, Serve, Delicious: I nearly burned my reestaurant down this week. The Buzz has finally dipped below 104% which means people are talking … [Read more...]

Drew Scott - Love Alone
Artist: Drew Scott
Producer: Drew Scott and Kareem James
Album: None (Promo Single)
Avg Rating: 3.0 ( 3 votes )
Being around people is great. Considering I work from home, human contact is always good, but sometimes I Love Alone time because it allows me to vibe out and listen to new music like Drew Scott's latest effort. On this lively, yet poignant cut, Scott turns in a passionate, high-energy vocal performance despite his heartbreak. Adding to this breakup cut's colorful vibe is Drew Scott and Kareem James's dynamic beat, driven by melodious piano and a deep, steady percussion rhythm. Love Alone is not part of Scott's recently-released free EP, Places I've Ever Been, which houses his first Booth feature, Brooke Lynn.

The Honduran Institute of Tourism (IHT) has made a big push in recent years to make the Caribbean coast an accessible tourism hub. Hotels are stocked with city maps and guidebooks. Its U.S.-based partner, Let's Go Honduras (no relation to the guidebook series Let's Go), is a great place to ask questions and gather tips, maps, and itineraries. The Web site is lacking, but the staff is responsive and thorough via e-mail. Local tourism chambers also have great contacts with tour groups and hotels. Tela, La Ceiba, and Trujillo all have small visitor centers that can provide directions and other helpful information.

November 28, 2014
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - The Oklahoma House has passed four bills meant to boost school safety following the deadly school shooting last year at a Connecticut elementary school.
The four proposals would create a school safety institute with the state's Office of Homeland Security and tell schools to share emergency plans with local responders, run intruder drills and report any firearms found. All passed with at least 85 of the chamber's 101 members in favor and go to the governor to be signed into law.
The bills are among proposals recommended by a school safety commission convened by Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb after 20 schoolchildren were killed in a shooting rampage in Newtown, Conn., last year.
A handful of opponents to the measures suggested the bills would be ineffective or redundant with current laws.

Helping Ohio's Mentally Ill Population
GREENE COUNTY -- Many state and local leaders say services and resources for the mentally ill are severely lacking in Ohio.
Paulie Schenck, 42, had been dealing with bipolar disorder since he was a teenager. The Yellow Springs resident was shot and killed by police following an hours-long standoff that came to a head when Schenck fired at officers.
"If we are to prevent future such tragedies from happening, we must, as Paulie's mother put it, open our eyes to the many walking wounded upon us," said Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine.
Paulie's mother told investigators he would not regularly take the medication prescribed and refused to stop abusing alcohol. Experts say it's a common story among the mentally ill.
"People don't seek the treatment. It's the way it used to be about cancer, we would whisper about it. We whisper about mental illness," said ADAMHS Executive Director Helen Jones-Kelley.
Under current state law, it's very difficult for parents to force their mentally ill adult children to seek help. Judges can only sentence mentally ill defendants to jail or an inpatient hospital.
"We ought to learn from this. We have some huge problems in the mental health system in the state of Ohio," DeWine said.
DeWine says legislation is being considered that would allow judges to offer mandatory outpatient treatment as well, which is an option that could feel a lot less daunting to those with a mental illness.

It's really only been a few months since Android Wear officially launched, but already it feels like we've been waiting ages for certain features. The wait, it appears, is almost over. In the second part of Phandroid's Android Wear leak, we get a look at what's coming in the Android 5.0 build for Wear, and it's basically addressing everything we've been complaining about.
Yesterday AT&T announced that it would start offering the Nexus 6 pre-orders on November 12th, and as it turns out, that was a Nexus 6-related date that you could actually trust. The 12th is here, and pre-orders to get the Nexus 6 from the carrier are now available online and in stores.
Sometimes late nights lead to interesting tips finding their way into our inbox. Tonight was just such a night. If you've been waiting to get a taste of Lollipop on your Nexus 7 2012, you're in luck. We just happen to have signed factory images for Google's original 7" tablet. The build is LRX21P, which lines up with builds we've seen on the Nexus 9 and Nexus Player (LRX21L and LRX21M respectively).
Those of you with phones not made by HTC can feel free to continue on to the next post. I'm sorry to have wasted your time... I assume if you are still reading at this point, you own an HTC device. Good, those other phones suck, right? Let's say nasty things about people who own those phones behind their backs. Before that, there's an update to BlinkFeed in the Play Store.
Less than a week ago, we received word that Motorola had already started its soak test for an over-the-air update bringing Lollipop to the Moto X 2014 Pure Edition. With this news, there's a good chance the phone will get Android 5.0 before Nexus devices (not counting the Nexus 6 and Nexus 9, which ship with the software). Now a tipster has come to us saying that the company has begun a test for this year's Moto G as well.
Sony is releasing flagship smartphones at a furious pace. Barely six months after the Xperia Z2 was announced, the Z3 is already here. If you don't need to have the absolute latest and greatest, there's a good deal on the Z2 today. Just $399.99 gets you a new unlocked device compatible with US LTE bands.
The power's out. This road trip will never end. Camping, again? Fine.
Whatever the reason, sometimes you just need extra power when there's no outlet in sight. In those instances, you're going to want the biggest, fattest external battery pack you can find.

When Amazon entered the tablet game with the original Kindle Fire, we all kind of chuckled at the idea of it being a reasonable entry into the market. With each iteration, though, those silly Fire tablets have gotten more and more powerful, and each edition of Fire OS has brought new features that proved to actually be useful. While Fire Phone may have been a flop, the Fire tablets are still very much alive, and the newest editions are better than ever.

2005+ Official White Tail Lights Reviewed
The white tail lamp. Probably the most recognizable automotive aftermarket item in the world these days. From the high priced OEM sets to the shoddy pieces of plastic seen on eBay, they seem to be everywhere and on every car. While many sets look rather regrettable, there are a few OEM sets that actually have a simple and elegant look about them.
Over the past several years MINI has offered two of these tail light kits. One entirely white and another that replaced the orange turn signals with white. Both were welcome additions and proved to be fairly popular. However, these lights were made obsolete by MINI's recent design changes made for the 2005 model year. While it's true that there are hacks to still incorporate the old style rear lights on newer MINIs, it's not the simple plug and play as it once was. And of course doing so may mean bad karma as your MINI is now not period correct!
The resulting redesign gave the tail lights a new more modern look and a set of reverse lights. Moving the reverse lights into the tail light cluster allowed for the rear foglights to be moved to the bottom center of the rear bumper… probably a more appropriate place considering their use.
The design of the new lights featured three colors. The main portion (used for brake lights) were red, the turn signals (the upper circle) were orange, and the reverse lighting was naturally white. However in the US, MINIUSA went with a simpler all red design save for the small white circles for the reverse lights. It's not entirely clear why this was done but it tends to give the US spec lights a simpler ill-defined shape as compared with the standard lamp. It also makes the turn signals red instead of orange, a change I personally find regrettable on the grounds of safety.
After the redesign, MINI designers rolled up their sleeves also created a new set of red and white lights. The design change was simple and subtle, white turn signals where the standard tail lights had orange. While it may not sound like much, the result is a better defined design and a duo-tone look and seems more appropriate for the MINI.
Sounds all well and good doesn't it? Of course there's just one problem. MINIUSA for some reason will not be offering the new red/white lights in the US. So what's a US owner to do? Simple; track down some imports.
The one place I've found that the lights are available and ready to ship to the US is at NewMiniStuff.com. The lights start at �72.18 or about $130. Not bad considering what MINI typically charges for the original white tail lamps. Mike from NewMiniStuff.com sells the lights as is or with a full set of bulbs. I originally went with the diadem blue silver indicator bulbs but found them a bit, well, blue. A quick run over to Knauz MINI and I had a set of the OEM BMW orange silver lights in hand and ready for install.
Installation is quite simple and straight forward. Essentially the lights are held in by a nut and two clips. Once you get the light housing out you can easily unhook the harness and plug the new one in. The entire install should take about 10 minutes from start to finish (20 minutes for a novice).
The resulting look is fantastic and the change is a bit more noticeable then what one might expect. The shape of the white turn signal area within the light housing is at such an angle that it highlights the elegant curvature of the car's rear quarter-panel… something that the all red lights fail to do. And the turn signals actually light up orange, a nice plus for those that are more safety conscious.
While some might scoff at spending $130+ for a set of different lights, for those of us who prize aesthetics and an individualized look, they fill the bill well.
Rating: 4.5 (out of five)
The new White and Red MINI Tail lights fit the 2005 and 2006 MINI. You can find them at NewMiniStuff.com and start at �72.18 (about $130) plus shipping. Shipping to the US takes about a week.

Hey gang, I'm 5 batches deep and running out of space in the basement to bottle age the beer. I was thinking of buying a garage fridge to keep everything in, but am unsure. I know that the longer you let the beer bottle age the better it gets, but does the cold of the frigde not let the beer age to the extent the warm aging would??
I heard prolonged cold aging makes your beer lose hop flavor.

The Waxhead made the journey from his residing home in Sydney to spend some time designing a few new surfboards with Bob Mctavish. The board in question here is a new creation which borrows its template off one of Bobs personal boards from 1966.
Slightly longer and sleeker at 9'5 x 22 1/2" with less hip than the typical involvement style boards, it suited the hollow waist high peelers that The Pass had to offer.

In a filing released just shy of two weeks before the company's Dec. 3 shareholders meeting, Microsoft provided a slate of data packaged to show the company is under good stewardship and bringing in new blood to the board of directors. An proposal up for vote at the meeting would give shareholders a greater say in board nominees. Provisions include allowing a single shareholder or a group of shareholders who've held a combined 3% of Microsoft stock for 3 years to nominate candidates numbering up to 40% of the board of directors.

I've been a customer of Uncle Bob's Storage in Landover, Maryland for years. I love the GREAT customer service I receive every time I enter the store or call Rachael. She's wonderful and very respectful. She the BEST.Tyece from Landover, MD
Very personable and great service. There were no hidden fees, no red tape that wasn't advertised (even for using the truck), and on one occasion, I improperly locked my unit and was notified; I thought that was fantastic. I just wish all of my dealings in life were the same as I had when renting the unit!Justin from Alexandria, VA
Your employees were the best! I've never known anyone to be so helpful, prompt, and understanding. I appreciate the price and the hours and all that other good stuff, truly, but I'm recommending your facility based on your employees. THANKS A MILLION!!!Sarah from Arlington, VA
Only issue is the unit needs a light bulb, which i haven't brought to the attention of the facility, minor issue.David from Arlington, VA
You should sell shelving units to store items above furniture since it gets hard to stack boxes on, let's say, a Laz-E-BoyAndrew from Arlington, VA
Your rep Brittany took her time to be certain everything was explained in a very informative manner and that my needs would be satisfied.Darnell from Woodbridge, VA
Office was musty smelling and the storage space had cobwebs. The storage door was nicely and promptly painted after chipped paint coveredAudrey from Arlington, VA
I live not far from the storage location I came there 3 times you all where closed.Carolyn from Hyattsville, MD
I think Darin went above and beyond to help me. My move was very stressful and Darin was accommodating and helpful.Tyrie from Gaithersburg, MD
My expectations were truly met. Darren was very helpful even going the extra mile in not just directing me to where the extra push carts were but he assisted in getting one to me. He was pleasant when i first got storage and was pleasant when later returned to storage with more things joking that i am still piling into my space. I would definitely recommend others to your business. Honestly, i cannot recall Public Storage as being so friendly.Angela from Germantown, MD

I found this question -> import custom libraries in java
And @Andy Thomas-Cramer said that the classes in "stdlib.jar" from "An introduction to programming in Java" have no packages, so they are in the default package.
Isn't this a bad practice? If you have something with no package the IDEs' auto-completion is quite slower. And also this means that we could not use any of the classes, in that jar, from classes with packages different then the default?
Can someone please tell me how we could deal with this?
EDIT: I have 2 jars and I put them in Referenced libraries, they both have a bunch of classes in default package. When I create class in different package then the default - lets say org.myquestion I can't access the classes from the jars anymore.
This is something that really bugs me... First I can't create my own package and use anything from the jars. Second my IDE's (I use eclipse) auto-complete goes terrible - I guess it searches to meany classes at once... What I want to do is to put somehow the jars in some namespace... and to be able to access them like org.someones.libs.SomeClass

To golf fans, Jeev Milka Singh is presently best known as the defending champion of the Scottish Open, being held this weekend at Castle Stuart in northeastern Scotland, not far from Dornoch. But Singh has a distinguished sports pedigree away from golf. His father, Milkha Singh, is a sports hero in his own right, a track star who remains the only Indian male to win a gold medal in the Commonwealth Games. The elder Singh, known as "The Flying Sikh," also competed in the Summer Olympics in both 1960 and '64, but never medaled. A movie called Run Milka Run just opened in India, but Jeev had to miss the premiere to defend his title at Castle Stuart, where he opened with a 67. While his father was a sprinter, the son knows how to run the long race: He has four wins since becoming the first Indian to qualify for the European Tour in 1994.

Kombucha tea maker Vibranz returns to Whole Foods
The government since June has tested hundreds of types of kombucha to determine if it should be labeled like beer or wine.
Wed, Aug 04, 2010 at 12:26 PM
TIPSY TEA?: Bottles are filled with fermented tea at the Katalyst Kombucha company in Greenfield, Mass. Some kombucha teas have more than 0.5 percent alcohol, the legal limit for a drink not to be considered alcoholic. (Photo: Charles Krupa/AP)
Kombucha maker Vibranz said its fermented tea is back at Whole Foods stores, marking the first return after the grocer pulled the products from shelves over worries they contained too much alcohol.
Whole Foods Market Inc. removed all varieties of the trendy tea from stores in mid-June.
The retailer and regulators are concerned that some bottles have more than 0.5 percent alcohol — the legal limit for a drink not to be considered alcoholic. The tea in its most popular form is raw and unpasteurized, meaning it ferments and the yeast inside produces alcohol.
Kombucha (pronounced com-BOOCH-a or com-BOOK-a) contains live bacteria and yeast, similar to yogurt. People like the bubbly drink and say it has health benefits such as improving digestion.
The government since June has tested hundreds of types of kombucha to determine if it should be labeled like beer or wine. Distributors and retailers have removed raw kombucha from stores, saying they won't restock until they know more.
Vibranz said it has a new formula that reduces alcohol to fall within the limits. Its kombucha, which it first started making in April, is now back in Whole Foods stores in northern California, near its headquarters. The company said it has more orders from around the country. It would not say how much alcohol its drinks had previously.
Whole Foods, which is based in Austin, Texas, did not return messages left seeking comment.
G.T. Dave, CEO of the company that makes category leaders GT's Kombucha and Synergy, said Wednesday his company is close to relaunching new products within weeks.
The federal Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, which has not issued a recall, has been testing samples and plans to come out with new guidelines when testing is complete. It said Wednesday that it did not know when that would be.

i just bought a new sump pump that requires a 1 1/4" hose to replace one that no longer works properly. the existing one has a 1" laundry hose, with no check valve, that discharges to a floor drain. This was set up by a previous owner, even though there is a pvc pipe set up to discharge water. The pipe goes across a foot or two then into the floor, not sure where the water ends up after that. looking at an older non-working pump with a 1 1/4" flexible discharge hose i noticed that the check valve was about a foot above floor level, where the flex hose attaches to the pvc pipe. is it ok to have the check valve that high up or should it be closer to the pump? all the instructions i've come across show it slightly above pump height.
a few inches one way or another as long as it's there.
i don't know if there is any code determining an actual critical point of placement.
i don't know if there is any code determining an actual critical point of placement.
The check could be located away from the sump pump but the instructions should have also mentioned an 1/8th inch hole drilled in the discharge piping after the pump and prior to the check to make sure the line does not become air bound
the difference would be over a foot. i wasn't sure whether it was better to have it closer to the pump or not. thanks for you help!
I too have had questions and issues about the check valve. I have had mine located right by the discharge port of the pump (as the instruction illustrations showed) but sometimes I believe the vibration of the pump loosens the rubber connecting hoses to the pvc discharge pipe. Also I believe the air bound issue may come into play creating more vibration than neccesary and the pump does not discharge from the well. I will move the valve a bit further away from the pipe and drill the venting hole as recommended. This makes perfect sense to me. Thnaks again.
