Breakfast Topic: Running progression raids blind {WoW}
Dec 2nd 2009 10:45AM I've run some raids and some dungeons blind in that I didn't know what was going on (even a few times with me tanking) and it isn't described to me. For dungeons I find it usually not that challenging, but it is pretty fun and rewarding.
The problem is that you have to be with characters who know their class very well and are very adaptable, and because of the strategies most raids have laid out, a lot of people don't reach that level. Mediocre or even bad players can still get through hardmodes, carried by better guilds or simply by learning a basic strategy and rinse/repeat.
The other problem is that even though I would love to do raids blind, I don't think I could find enough people willing to join me.
Arcane Brilliance: Mage leveling guide, 41 to Outland {WoW}

Officers' Quarters: More loot-rolling shenanigans {WoW}
Nov 2nd 2009 2:24PM You clearly do not understand probability (or have a complete misunderstanding of the situation). Assume we have four players who roll on a piece of gear, A, B, C, and D. In reality, however, players A, B, and C are all rolling for player B. D has a 25% chance of winning the loot. If, however, players A and C follow the loot rules and do not roll because they do not need the gear, D has a 50% chance of winning the loot.
Officers' Quarters: More loot-rolling shenanigans {WoW}
Nov 2nd 2009 1:54PM I agree. If the raid feels that it is acceptable behavior, that is absolutely fine. But doing it while leaving them in the dark is stealing loot from people that need it.
WoW Rookie: Primary stats for beginners {WoW}
Oct 28th 2009 2:25PM From level 1-60 its simply not worth it. There aren't enough stats on most of the gear (until around 50 really) to justify taking it. Once you hit 60 there is tons of gear with spell power and it becomes a much more important stat, but most of the time you aren't sacrificing stam/int.
Same would hold true (I assume..) for non-casters.
Disenchanting in dungeons in patch 3.3 {WoW}
Oct 28th 2009 2:05PM It doesn't really affect you, though. You're arguing that other people can roll on disenchanted items but you're assuming that if you don't offer to disenchant for everyone that they'll just pass and let you have it. You have the same chance of getting mats as you would before this system.
Ghostcrawler and the "hybrid tax" {WoW}
Oct 27th 2009 4:24PM I don't see why it would be that big of an issue. Leveling as a DK in any tank spec/gear is still pretty easy, although it might be a bit slower than a DPS spec/gear setup. Also leveling a Disc priest isn't too challenging, even if shadow is easier.

Difference of Perfect Squares - Problem 2
This is a difference of perfect squares problem that's a little bit different because my leading coefficient isn't 1, I start out here with 16. But I'm still going to use the same process. I know if I have the difference of perfect squares, it's equal to a plus b times a minus b, plus and minus with my two square roots. So here if I take the square root of 16x² that's going to be 4x, that will be the fist term in each one of my factors, then I need to take the square root of 81, that's 9. I'll have plus 9 and minus 9. That's it, that's my final answer.
Again you could write this as 4x minus 9 and plus or you could still switch this and it's still the same answer because with multiplying it doesn't matter which one comes first or second.
The key is making sure you take the square root of this first term and the square root of the second term and then writing it with pluses and minuses in between them.

The National Hit the Road Less Traveled in Tribeca Opener 'Mistaken for Strangers'
Feature-length doc directed by Matt Berninger's little bro
The National returns this May when the Brooklynites b/w Cincinnati release their sixth album. But just before they follows up 2010's excellent High Violet, a documentary centered around the band will open this year's Tribeca Film Festival.
On April 17, TFF will premiere Mistaken for Strangers, a feature directed by first-time filmmaker Tom Berninger, little bro to frontman Matt Berninger. According to a press release, the doc focuses on Berninger's "personal journey" as he accompanies his brother's band on tour, traveling from Berlin to Paris to Los Angeles to a 2010 Madison, Wisconsin rally for President Obama. The festival's website describes the movie as "the story of two very different brothers — one a struggling artist, the other the lead singer of the National."
Mistaken for Strangers promises "unforeseen drama" stemming from tension between members of the famously introverted band. Tribeca insists this is "not your typical road documentary."
Following the April 17 screening, the National will give a performance that will most likely include the song that inspired Mistaken for Strangers' title. Watch the official video for that track, off 2007's Boxer, down below.
Berninger also filmed brief profiles of the group's five gents, which can be watched via the National's website.

Developer / Documentation / Common issues when developing opensocial apps
- Adding and reading parameters in the URL of notifications
- Installing a user skin from within an app
- I use cookies in my app and Safari won't let me do that from within an iframe
- I try to send a notification trough OpenSocial PHP client but I get 500 - internal server error
- In a game app, filtering friends for HAS_APP returns zero friends
- openSocial REST calls return a 501 Not Implemented error
- openSocial REST with the Security Token authentication method fails and gives a 401 status back
- I want to load friends, but not all of them are returned
- requestShareApp does not work in the sandbox
- I try to use gadgets.views.getParams() but it is not working
- I use OpenSocial REST to post activity logs, but special characters are not coming trough properly.
- I want to change the height of my gadget
- I want to ask the user to become friend with my brand or take over its skin.
Adding and reading parameters in the URL of notifications
Sometimes we want to reach an app from different places in the site, and we can indicate where we come from in the URL. Also, we often want to do user- or context-specific things with the user the moment he lands on the app. (for example if he gets their by clicking a notification 'you have a gift waiting for you!' sent out by the app).
We do this by passing along a parameter to the app page named appParams that contains a JSON string.
Adding view params to notifications sent from the openSocial app
Netlog.Message.Field.PARAMS is an "extension" that allows sending extra params in the URL of a notification, as follows:
var recipients = [userId]; var name = 'lol'; var title = 'test' var params = {}; params[opensocial.Message.Field.TYPE] = "notification"; params[opensocial.Message.Field.TITLE] = title; params[Netlog.Message.Field.PARAMS] = { 'bagId' : bagId }; var message = opensocial.newMessage('', params); opensocial.requestSendMessage(recipients, message);
(don't forget to <Require feature="netlog" /> on top of your app!)
These then end up in the notification, and when a user reaches an app trough this link, the app can retrieve these parameters as follows.
Note: if you are using the REST API you
can also send these parameters along to show up in the notification link. They should be named
Retrieving view-parameters
Within the openSocial app this type of URL-passed data will be available in gadgets.views.getParams()['key']
So if your URL is:- http://nl.netlog.com/apps/myApp?appParams={"foo":"bar!"}
- ...and you run the function var myFooValue = gadgets.views.getParams()['foo']; in the openSocial app
- ...then myFooValue will hold the string 'bar!'
NOTE: these have to be double quotes, single quotes in the JSON do not work.
For example this is done with the 'send as gift' button that can be clicked when sending a private message. This button takes you to the Gifts app, passing along the precise user + message so it gets pre-filled within the app.
"appParams" => "{ "receiver" : "61507", "message" : "asdfasda%20%3A%20asdf%20asdf%20sadf%20asdf%20" }"
Installing a user skin from within an app
First of all, require the feature from Netlog in your app's moduleprefs section:
<Require feature="netlog" />
You then have access to the following function:
Netlog.Campaigns.loadSkin(distro, nickname, skinname);
That function will navigate to a 'preview' page where the user sees his profile with the new skin. The distro (this is how we call our language portals: EN, AR, FR,...) and the nickname should be requested via OpenSocial. The skinname will be provided to you by your contact at Netlog. Implementation example:
window.skinname = 'brands/mobstar_legends'; function loadSkin(responseData) { var nickname = responseData.get('viewerData').getData().getField('nickname'); var prefs = new gadgets.Prefs(); var lang = prefs.getLang(); //alert (' switching to skin: '+window.skinname); Netlog.Campaigns.loadSkin(lang, nickname, window.skinname); } function setProfileSkin() { //alert('setting profile skin...'); var req = opensocial.newDataRequest(); req.add(req.newFetchPersonRequest(opensocial.IdSpec.PersonId.VIEWER), "viewerData"); req.send(loadSkin); }
I use cookies in my app and Safari won't let me do that from within an iframe.
This has to do with cross-domain security restrictions: Safari only accepts cookies from pages that the user explicitly 'navigated to'. Two possible workarounds exist:
- Detect if the browser is safari, and if so show a big 'start app/game' link that the user has to click. Once the user clicked that, Safari trusts the site within the iframe enough to allow cookies. (e.g. Netlog game Dolumar does this)
- Detect whether the cookie is there using JS, and if it isn't: create and POST a form to a next page (the POST makes safari trust it), set a cookie with that next page/script and then return to the original page that needs the cookie.
Stack Overflow has an interesting discussion on this issue.
I updated the XML spec code on my server, but I don't see the changes in the app
When testing your opensocial app within a Netlog app page, it may not seem to reflect your latest code changes. This is because we cache the XML spec file.
Add ?flushXML=1 to your app (or brand) page URL to disable caching of the XML spec file.
I try to send a notification trough OpenSocial PHP client but I get 500 - internal server error
Notifications within Netlog are a subtype of messages, so make sure you are doing calls to social/rest/messages and not to a social/rest/notifications endpoint.
$batch->add($osapi->notifications->create($params), 'send_notification'); $result = $batch->execute();Correct:
$storage = new osapiFileStorage('/tmp/osapi'); $provider = new osapiNetlogProvider(); $provider->rpcEndpoint = null; $osapi = new osapi($provider, new osapiOAuth2Legged(self::KEY, self::SECRET, self::USERID)); $batch = $osapi->newBatch(); // Create a message $message = new osapiMessage( array(1, 2, 3), //recipients 'test message by osapi', //body 'sent at ' . strftime('%X'), //title 'NOTIFICATION' //type ); $create_params = array( 'userId' => $userId, 'groupId' => '@self', 'message' => $message ); $batch->add($osapi->messages->create($create_params), 'createMessage'); // Send the batch request. $result = $batch->execute();
In a game app, filtering friends for HAS_APP returns zero friends
This filtering returns only users that installed the app, but in the context of games you cannot 'install' apps, only play them on the gamepage.
So this indeed never returns results. To keep track of who has already played your game, store this information on your end, or even better:
use OpenSocial's to store any information you want.
So, concretely:
- For viewers entering your game to a point where you can consider them 'players' in any way, store a certain key-value pair in the persistant app storage.
- When you have the userid of the viewer and/or his friends, get the persistent storage for all of them and check whether the key from the previous step indeed corresponds with the value you set. If yes, they have 'installed' the game, if not they have never been in the game.
openSocial REST calls return a 501 Not Implemented error
Problem: I do a POST to something like
http://nl.api.netlog.com/opensocial/social/rest/people/57528694/@friends?st=NmQ4Yzc3NzMzNDIyYjViMmZhM2QzYmQ2ZmQ5OWQyMjA%3D&fields=nickname%2C+thumbnailUrl... and I get a response saying 501 Not Implemented - You can't add people right now, even though I don't want to add anybody, just get information!
Explanation: our OpenSocial implementation prohibits certain types of actions, and before handling any incoming http request it detects those actions based on the request verb (GET, POST, PUT, etc). To fetch information, always use GET (or HEAD but this will rarely be needed). To insert or update information, use POST (or PUT, but again rather rare).
openSocial REST with the Security Token authentication method fails and gives a 401 status back.
Problem: I authenticated my external application using the security token generated in the gadget. However, when trying to load the user data from Netlog I get an 401 error back. For example:Unexpected status code on get request (401), where the call was done to: http://de.api.netlog.com/opensocial/social/rest/people/@me/@self?format=xml&st=YmQxYzkyZDczMzA3ZWQ3ZDc1OTRlZmQwYzMyYTI3NmI%3D&fields=id%2Cage%2Cbirthday%2CthumbnailUrl%2Cbirthday%2Cgender%2Cnickname%2CdisplayName->which doesn't look suspicious at all (it isn't) Solution: the security token expires after about 24 minutes. Consider pinging our server regularly in the background, i.e. do a new request every now and then to see if the security token still valid, and if not, get a new one. Alternatively, consider using for example the OpenSocial PHP client library with OAuth 2-legged, which will provide your app a more persistent authentication.
I want to load friends, but not all of them are returned
This can be caused by a number of different issues:
- By default, only friends on the same distro are fetched, because apps are distro-specific (and friendships are not) so cross-language friends would cause weird errors in apps.
- Check careful if you use any filtering that may not be appropriate (e.g. HAS_APP does not make sense for games)
- Netlog only returns a maximum of 75 friends per call. However, you can always pass on a startIndex parameter. So if
you really need to fetch all friends, consider writing some sort of while loop that does calls with increasing start index
until no more friends are returned. (see below)
Chances are however, that a faster and more elegant solution will be to use a pager of some sorts. We also have a search friends extension that may be worth looking into.
In PHP with the openSocial PHP library for example, if you have a method getViewerFriends($countPerFetch, $index), something like the following would fetch all viewer friends, by repeatedly fetching friends until no more are returned (or $maxIterations is reached).
public function getAllViewerFriends() { $count = 1; $index = 0; $countPerFetch = 50; $allFriends = $this->getViewerFriends($countPerFetch, $index); $lastCount = count($allFriends); $this->debug("Last count: $lastCount ..."); $currentIteration = 0; $maxIterations = 3; while ($lastCount >= $countPerFetch) { if ($currentIteration >= $maxIterations) { $this->debug("Reached max of $maxIterations iterations! Stopping loop..."); break; } $index += $countPerFetch; $currentBatch = $this->getViewerFriends($countPerFetch, $index); $allFriends = array_merge($allFriends, $currentBatch); $currentIteration ++; //could connect this to index and vice versa $lastCount = count($currentBatch); $this->debug("Last count: $lastCount ..."); } return $allFriends; }
requestShareApp does not work in the sandbox
Apps can have a page (i.e. be accessible on different) on some, any or all Netlog distros (nl, en, ar ...). We have a policy that you can only share an app with friends that are on a distro that also has a 'page' of this app. (this is not necessarily the case because we allow cross-language friends)
Now, the way our sandbox works is that it simulates an app page on a 'hidden' developer Netlog distribution (dev.netlog.com if you will), independent on whether you access it from NL.netlog.com, EN.netlog.com... What this means is that none of your friends will be on the 'correct' distro to view this app, and that is why requestShareApp will not accept any friends from the Sandbox. It will behave as expected once you start testing your app from a page - within - Netlog though (we can set you up to do that).
I try to use gadgets.views.getParams() but it is not working
This is probably because you forgot to add <Require feature="views" /> in your spec XML.
I use OpenSocial REST to post activity logs, but special characters are not coming trough properly.
This problem can be traced back to json_encode() behaving weirdly when it comes to unicode characters. It can be circumvented by using the helper function described in the activities section described here.
I want to change the height of my gadget
You can set the height of your gadget with the OpenSocial JS function gadgets.window.adjustHeight();. You can provide the height in px as argument to this function, or nothing at all in which case it will be resized according to its contents.
Important: the adjustHeight() function will only work if you include the dynamic-height feature in your spec XML like this:
<Require feature="dynamic-height" />
You would typically call this function after your gadget is fully loaded. The function gadgets.util.registerOnLoadHandler(myStartFunction) can play an important part in that.
I want to ask the user to become friend with my brand or take over its skin.
Our extension Netlog.Campaigns.dialogRequest() for the OpenSocial JS API allows you to show a dialog to the user, asking if he wants to become friends with your brand, or take over its skin. You can pass along a callback function that will be called after the dialog is closed, and this function will receive a status (e.g. 'ACCEPTED') as first argument based on which option the user chose.
In order for this function call to work you need to <Require feature="netlog" />.
Example code (including function arguments) for the become brand friend dialog:
function onBecomeFriendButtonClicked() { alert("Will request to become friend .!."); var myCallback = function(data){ debug("RECEIVED CALLBACK:"); debug(data); if (data.success) { alert("succesfully changed friendship!"); } else { alert("Skinfriendship not accepted succesfully"); } }; Netlog.Campaigns.dialogRequest({'requestedAction' : 'becomefriend', 'message' : 'become friends with my brand page now AND WIN A PRIZE!!', 'callback' : myCallback}); }
Example code (including function arguments) for the set brand skin dialog:
function onSetSkinButtonClicked() { var skinname = 'brands/fa_glamour_user'; alert("Will requests to set skin:" + skinname + '!!!'); var myCallback = function(data){ debug("RECEIVED CALLBACK:"); debug(data); if (data.success) { alert("Skin succesfully changed!"); } else { alert("Skin not changed succesfully"); } }; Netlog.Campaigns.dialogRequest({'requestedAction' : 'setskin', 'skinname' : skinname, 'message' : 'Je gaat nu de skin installeren EN WIN EEN PRIJS!', 'callback' : myCallback}); }

When a trade is completed the players involved are asked to abruptly pick up their lives and move to a new city that's often foreign and strange, and do it seamlessly while being ready to play again in a matter of days.
The professional aspect of being traded can be beneficial depending on the players' new situation, but the personal aspect can really suck.
For Jerome Harrison, getting traded may have been a life-saving experience.
With Jahvid Best's concussion issues threatening his season, the Lions were desperate for a reliable running back and traded Harrision–their backup RB–to Philadelphia prior to Tuesday's trade deadline for Ronnie Brown. Players have to pass physicals to complete any trade, and last night the Harrison/Brown trade was voided. All we knew at the time was that the deal fell through because of Harrison's health, with Adam Schefter only able to report that Harrison had "previously undisclosed health issues."
Today Schefter found out that being expendable in Detroit led to a startling and timely discovery for Harrison…

"It's not who's put up the fastest time in the world that year, or who's put up the fastest time in the previous four years, but who can get their hand on the wall first today." – Nathan Adrian, 100m Freestyle Gold Medalist at the 2012 Olympics
The favorites always get the lion's share of attention – and television coverage – at the Olympics. And they typically say the most predictable things when asked about their performances. For me, the most interesting – and probably the most genuine – comments come from the athletes who weren't expected to win.
Nathan Adrian is a great swimmer. He's won three world championships since the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China. And in Beijing he was part of the 4x100m relay team that won the gold medal (although he didn't swim in the final race). But coming into the 100m freestyle final in London, he was up against a stacked field and the favorite for gold was Australia's James Magnussen in the lane next to him. In the rows nearby were Cesar Cielo – the current world record holder from Brazil, and Yannick Agnell – the swimmer who chased down Ryan Lochte in the final leg of the 4x100m relay to win gold for France. By his own admission he was hoping to make it on the podium. Any step of the podium.
47.52 seconds later, Adrian punched the wall to stop the clock. Just 1/100th of a second later, Magnussen touched to win the silver medal. The quote above came from his poolside interview immediately after the race, and it's a sentiment all competitors should take to heart.
- Leadville 100 Athletes: Check out the itinerary for our week of events leading up to the 2012 Leadville 100
- Cyclists: Save Your Season! Sign up for 3 months of full-service coaching for $699 (Aug/Sept/Oct) and finish the 2012 season off with awesome results!
- Triathletes: Want a second chance at an Ironman triathlon in 2012? We have entries for Ironman Arizona and Ironman Florida available with coaching or camp packages: http://trainright.com/ironman
"Previous results are not a guarantee of future performance." That quote actually came from the fine print on a TV ad (for a local personal injury lawyer) that played shortly after Adrian's performance. Take that quote out of the context of litigation and apply it to competition, and it too is a sentiment competitors should take to heart.
Every time you step to a start line of a race, the scenario boils down to what Nathan Adrian described. It's all about who can get to the finish line first on this day, right now. The competitors around you may have more experience, more wins to their credit, or better equipment, but they have to rise to the same challenge you do. On this day, right now, they have to get to the finish line first. What they've done in the past doesn't guarantee they can do it today. And what you haven't yet accomplished doesn't limit what you can achieve today.
When we stand on a start line the only thing that matters is what we are capable of doing at that moment. And the truth is, you don't know what they competitors near you are capable of. You don't know if they're having the best days of their lives or are feeling sluggish. Don't give them the benefit of the doubt just because they've beaten you in the past.
There are whole lot more underdogs than there are favorites, and it's fair to say that almost every time you go to the start line there will be at least one person there who is faster, more powerful, or more accomplished than you are. But no one is unbeatable, and favorites cannot be granted an easier path to victory based on their previous results. Push them to their limits and make them prove they deserved their status as a pre-race favorite. If they still manage to win you will at least know they earned it.
All that matters is who can put his hand on the wall first today. That can be you. And only you can make it happen.
Have a great weekend, and keep watching the Olympics! The Women's Triathlon is this morning and CTS Athlete Erin Densham is a favorite for gold! And later in the week, CTS Athlete Katerina Nash is a medal favorite in the Women's Mountain Bike event!

I am trying to find information about vines that can co-habitate with living bamboo.
There use to be a nursery in San Francisco called Potrero Hill Nursery whose owner very affectively planted a vine with the living bamboo which then trellised the bamboo adding thickness to it and giving it a very interesting tropical appearance. I seem to recall the owner told me that the plant was not technically a vine but some vine like species, but I am not absolutely sure of this. Any idea what he may have been using? Can't find anything on the internet and the above mentioned nursery has been gone for some years now. thanks
Follow-Up Postings:
Could it have been something like Tecomaria capensis, Cape Honeysuckle? This would most likely have had orange or yellow flowers in clusters and glossy green foliage, and would rather easily grow up amongst bamboo canes. Other vigorous scandent shrubs or vines would also work, like Burmese Honeysuckle, or Plumbago capensis. |

Quiet everybody, I have an announcement to make!
I like pizza!
It is hot and thick and delicious and I have loved it since November, 2006!
Shhhh! I have a second annoucement to make!
Bridgette and I are going to have another baby!
Babies are magical creatures who fart applesauce. They communicate wordlessly though animalistic squawks and by staring at light fixtures. They fill our days with wide-eyed wonder and our nights with quiet desparation. My wife and I are excited about welcoming such a being into our home, as Oliver is now nearly ready to begin a lifetime of work in the coal mines.
This is indeed a special time for our family. My sincere and simple wish for our new child is that he or she be born healthy and clutching a fistful of hundred dollar bills.

Red Arremer Joker
this wiki
Red Arremer Joker | |
Also Known As | Red Armor Joker |
From | Super Ghouls 'N Ghosts R |
In Level | Village of Decay Revisited (2b-2) |
Type of Character | Boss |
He is the ruler of the whole red arremer clan, resulting from the evolution of a Red Arremer King. Only one of his kind can exist at a given time; if the current Joker were to die, either the oldest Red Arremer King will evolve and take his place, or all of the kings will battle for the right to take the Joker mantle.
In Namco X Capcom, he plays a major role as the highest ranking general under Astaroth's command, always ensuring that things go as his emperor desires; however, he feels no loyalty towards Nebiroth. It is possible that he is actually Firebrand, evolved to Joker status, because at several points in-game, he is referred to as "the red demon who follows the crest", possibly refering to Demon's Crest. He commands several batallions of ghouls, each led by a small force of red arremers.
Powers and abilities:
He wears a royal battle armor that increases his endurance many times. Even though bulky and heavy, he still manages to soar effortlessly, though he is slightly less agile than lesser rank red arremers. However, he is still quite hard to hit when he focuses on defensive tactics (often when near death).
He is an expert user of fire and energy magic. Has limited psychic power, which enables him to control the behaviour of his spells and fireballs at will long after being cast. He can also summon high-ranking red arremer aces to the battle as helpers.
He is the leader of the Red Arremer Tribe.

Bottom line, if governments do'nt spend then they lose. So they create to save losing income and having to reduce tax revenues.Best examples the firearm boondogle and the $40 million unity scandal. They did not achieve anything of much real value but helped keep up expenditures. If they run deficits they can always have a reason to keep taxation high and if there is an excess they have creative spending. Keeping the people financially, or ideology, captive ensures their futures, is what appears to have been the aim of most past governments. This seems to be changing with better communications than in the past. Maybe governments want to dump health care- one financial vehicle- in favour of privatization? It can be a political nightmare for them, being dependent as they are on the voting public and with media spin doctors breathing down their necks. As the old saying goes- it is hard to drain the swamp when you are up to to your rear end in alligators trying to take chunks out of you.

This is a PROVINCIAL STRATEGY gone wrong and now they need a PLAN to fix it. A strategy is knowing where we want to be. A PLAN, according to our premeir's account, is how do we get ourselves out of this mess we've put us all in. If we don't plan a strategy then this is what we get. If our hospitals are so poor run then you'd think it wouldn't be so hard to reach benchmarks...but here we are!

I really don't understand why Brian Jones is so uninformed about this. The bottom line is Eastern Health is losing money and has to examine where they can save money so they run their shop more efficiently. There will be no full time positions cut as a result of the announcements, that has been clearly stated. What are the solutions he poses? Fire Vicki Kaminiski? As I see it she has been nothing but effective since she was hired. Does Jones suggest we leave this situation as is and change nothing. That is not a solution, it's just allows the problem to persist. He is uninformed and clearly is protesting these initiatives for the sake of whining. I believe this is a responsible action, and for one support these changes.

Yes Terry you are the only one in Newfoundland who is informed. One thing I don't understand is, if a statement for the coffee shop was prepared at the end of each year, why didn't anyone in management not know or care. Also if a member of The Telegram could see these problems with the governments rational why didn't someone ask for an explanation at there news scrums. The only way to stop government from using these questionable statements is to confront them when they make them.

Well said. Kaminski can blow smoke about coffee shops but mismanagement is the big problem.
- my tax money
- June 01, 2012 - 08:00
if kaminsky was running a private healthcare system and after several years into the position she declared that it had all the inefficencies that eastern health has, what would probably happen is, as Donald Trump would say, Kaminsky YOUR FIRED!
- Patience or patients
- June 01, 2012 - 07:34
I'd say there were so many partonage donuts and coffee flying out that there was not room for profits let alone patients. Scrap this system and sell it off for parts like was done with FPI. The premier said it was a black hole and won't explain why in the house and thats our leader! Eastern health and gov won't be satisfied until its service will be just a waiting room before the morgue.

New King James Version (NKJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Righteous are You, O Lord, when I plead with You; Yet let me talk with You about Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why are those happy who deal so treacherously? | 1 You are always righteous, O LORD, when I bring a case before you. Yet I would speak with you about your justice: Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease? |
2 You have planted them, yes, they have taken root; They grow, yes, they bear fruit. You are near in their mouth But far from their mind. | 2 You have planted them, and they have taken root; they grow and bear fruit. You are always on their lips but far from their hearts. |
3 But You, O Lord, know me; You have seen me, And You have tested my heart toward You. Pull them out like sheep for the slaughter, And prepare them for the day of slaughter. | 3 Yet you know me, O LORD; you see me and test my thoughts about you. Drag them off like sheep to be butchered! Set them apart for the day of slaughter! |
4 How long will the land mourn, And the herbs of every field wither? The beasts and birds are consumed, For the wickedness of those who dwell there, Because they said, "He will not see our final end." | 4 How long will the land lie parched and the grass in every field be withered? Because those who live in it are wicked, the animals and birds have perished. Moreover, the people are saying, "He will not see what happens to us." |
5 "If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, Then how can you contend with horses? And if in the land of peace, In which you trusted, they wearied you, Then how will you do in the floodplain of the Jordan? | 5 "If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in safe country, how will you manage in the thickets by the Jordan? |
6 For even your brothers, the house of your father, Even they have dealt treacherously with you; Yes, they have called a multitude after you. Do not believe them, Even though they speak smooth words to you. | 6 Your brothers, your own family-- even they have betrayed you; they have raised a loud cry against you. Do not trust them, though they speak well of you. |
7 "I have forsaken My house, I have left My heritage; I have given the dearly beloved of My soul into the hand of her enemies. | 7 "I will forsake my house, abandon my inheritance; I will give the one I love into the hands of her enemies. |
8 My heritage is to Me like a lion in the forest; It cries out against Me; Therefore I have hated it. | 8 My inheritance has become to me like a lion in the forest. She roars at me; therefore I hate her. |
9 My heritage is to Me like a speckled vulture; The vultures all around are against her. Come, assemble all the beasts of the field, Bring them to devour! | 9 Has not my inheritance become to me like a speckled bird of prey that other birds of prey surround and attack? Go and gather all the wild beasts; bring them to devour. |
10 "Many rulers have destroyed My vineyard, They have trodden My portion underfoot; They have made My pleasant portion a desolate wilderness. | 10 Many shepherds will ruin my vineyard and trample down my field; they will turn my pleasant field into a desolate wasteland. |
11 They have made it desolate; Desolate, it mourns to Me; The whole land is made desolate, Because no one takes it to heart. | 11 It will be made a wasteland, parched and desolate before me; the whole land will be laid waste because there is no one who cares. |
12 The plunderers have come On all the desolate heights in the wilderness, For the sword of the Lord shall devour From one end of the land to the other end of the land; No flesh shall have peace. | 12 Over all the barren heights in the desert destroyers will swarm, for the sword of the LORD will devour from one end of the land to the other; no one will be safe. |
13 They have sown wheat but reaped thorns; They have put themselves to pain but do not profit. But be ashamed of your harvest Because of the fierce anger of the Lord." | 13 They will sow wheat but reap thorns; they will wear themselves out but gain nothing. So bear the shame of your harvest because of the LORD's fierce anger." |
14 Thus says the Lord: "Against all My evil neighbors who touch the inheritance which I have caused My people Israel to inherit--behold, I will pluck them out of their land and pluck out the house of Judah from among them. | 14 This is what the LORD says: "As for all my wicked neighbors who seize the inheritance I gave my people Israel, I will uproot them from their lands and I will uproot the house of Judah from among them. |
15 Then it shall be, after I have plucked them out, that I will return and have compassion on them and bring them back, everyone to his heritage and everyone to his land. | 15 But after I uproot them, I will again have compassion and will bring each of them back to his own inheritance and his own country. |
16 And it shall be, if they will learn carefully the ways of My people, to swear by My name, 'As the Lord lives,' as they taught My people to swear by Baal, then they shall be established in the midst of My people. | 16 And if they learn well the ways of my people and swear by my name, saying, 'As surely as the LORD lives'--even as they once taught my people to swear by Baal--then they will be established among my people. |
17 But if they do not obey, I will utterly pluck up and destroy that nation," says the Lord. | 17 But if any nation does not listen, I will completely uproot and destroy it," declares the LORD. |

I do paper mostly, too, but I've made some books online. I just got caught up on my scrapbooking over spring break. I'm not sure my pages are that great, though. My intention is always to fit as many (theme-related) photos on a page so I have less scrapbooking to do! I'm sure if I didn't have THREE scrapbooks to maintain I might take more time to make them all artistic and stuff. But I really do like being creative with it. I do my scrapbooks 2 times per year and spend many late, late nights in one week to get caught up.
I'd love to see others' scrapbooks, though.

Police shoot pit bull during Middletown drug busts and make multiple arrests
MIDDLETOWN, Ohio -- A pit bull was shot and injured by a Middletown police officer who was serving a drug search warrant at a home Wednesday morning.
Authorities entered a home in the 1800 block of Manchester Avenue minutes before 10:30 a.m. Four pit bulls, were just inside the home, according to Journal-News.
"One of the dogs squared off at an officer, came toward him, and he fired one round hitting the dog in the muzzle," Lt. Scott Reeve said.
The dog ran to the rear of the home, and was taken to a nearby vet for treatment to his wound.
The dog's owner, Kim King, acknowledged that the dog had acted more aggressively lately, and chose to have the dog euthanized so it didn't hurt anyone, according to Lt. Jim Cunningham.
Officers kept the other three dogs away by using a fire extinguisher.
Cunningham said several arrests were made during the search warrants at two homes within the same block on Manchester Avenue.
At the home where the dogs were kept, 42-year-old King was charged with permitting use of crack-cocaine. A 17-year-old was charged with possession of crack-cocaine. Sarah Landers, 24, was charged with two counts of child endangering and permitting use of crack-cocaine.
Police took two young children from the home, and Cunningham said detectives would work with Butler County Children's Services to follow up with their removal and care.
At the other residence, police arrested and charged 21-year-old Jordan Oatneal with permitting heroin use and child endangering. James Smith, 18, was charged with heroin possession, possession of drug instruments, drug paraphernalia and child endangering. Veasha Calhoun, 18, was charged with permitting heroin use.
Investigators would continue to work with the neighborhood's residents, and could file more charges, Cunningham said.

We're headed over to Oklahoma City to see my dad's huge family.
I get to see my eight cousins and their ten kids ... and all the rest of the insane gaggle. This is a Thanksgiving that once got moved to the fellowship hall at my grandparents' church because the house just couldn't fit all of us anymore. Like, in the sixties.
Let me just tell y'all, about half of my family went to Oklahoma, and the other half went to Oklahoma State. Thanksgiving is two days before the OU/OSU game. Just add wine for a good time.
And every time I see them, we end up at the casino.
Giving thanks, y'all.
I'm thankful for my ridiculous family and our inclination to give all of our money to Riverwind Casino.

Although enrollment at Majestic Heights has fallen from 163 students in 1995 to 102 today, and at Martin Park it has dropped from 496 students in 1995 to 137, school-district figures also show that attendance at Aurora 7 is the highest it's been in five years, rising from 293 students in 1995 to 338 this year. Part of that boost comes from students who are bused in from Superior; still, 75 percent of the students live in the Aurora 7 neighborhood.
Closing Majestic Heights also means that students will have to cross busy Table Mesa Drive to get to Martin Park, a fact that has forced the city to consider building an underpass, which could cost more than $1 million, according to Mock. "The school board didn't come to the city at all," Mock says, adding that his letter was answered with "no more than a polite thank-you from Stan Garnett.
"The school board did a terrible job of public process two years ago, and they've done a terrible job again. My experience is that if you give people enough time to look at problems, they'll come up with some pretty imaginative solutions. School-board members can't continue to go into issues like this thinking they're the experts. That attitude just doesn't work in Boulder."
Previous page: Snowed day: Janis Sherwood, with her children Sawyer (left) and Amanda, says the school board misled parents.
Many parents couldn't agree more. Majestic Heights parent Sherwood is leading a drive to unseat the entire school board, except Okolowicz. She and more than one hundred other angry parents are trying to collect the 16,000 signatures needed to trigger a special recall election, which could be held in early June.
Right now they can only try to oust three -- Garnett, Phillips and Jean Bonelli -- because boardmembers have to be in office at least six months before they can be recalled, but they'll begin circulating recall petitions for the others -- Angelika Schroeder, Teresa Steele-Sackschewsky and Bill de la Cruz -- in May, after the grace period expires.
Other parents, like Majestic Heights's Donna Schaefer, were so angered by the decision that they are enrolling their kids in schools across town to make a statement to the school board. Even though most of Boulder's growth is concentrated in the north end of town, where finding a small school will be difficult, Schaefer felt she needed to move.
"It was a pure emotional reaction to being told what to do," she says. "The school board expected 300 to 400 parents to obediently march over and enroll their kids in Martin Park, but they've only gotten about 120 parents to do that. That should tell them something. It says the parents are pissed. I don't know where everyone is going, but several parents I know have enrolled their kids in other Boulder schools."
BVSD spokeswoman Barbara Taylor couldn't confirm that number; she says the district doesn't know how many students have enrolled in Martin Park, because it hasn't finished making placement assignments for next school year.
Some school-district employees and many parents believe that part of the reason for consolidation is that the board felt obligated to do something for Southern Hills Middle School, which has been sharing its campus with Summit, a popular charter middle school, for four years. The staff and parents at both schools have put a lot of pressure on the board to find Summit a home of its own, and on February 24, less than a month after approving the consolidation plan, the board voted to move students from Summit to Majestic Heights. Garnett insists that the two issues are entirely separate, however. "To suggest that there was some secret plan is completely incorrect and unrealistic," he says. "The space problem at Southern Hills is a big problem, though. Kids at both schools have a hard time accessing the gym and library because of having to share space. There are portables everywhere."
Julie Phillips, the boardmember who proposed the moratorium, says the choice to close the schools wasn't an easy one to make, but that it had to be done.
"What propelled us into the South Boulder consolidation was when our staff determined that they were expecting only 88 students to enroll in the Majestic Heights neighborhood school next year. We just couldn't justify putting so many resources into such a small school," she says, adding that she thought the $10.6 million referendum that voters passed in 1998 would be enough to prevent the district from having to close schools until 2001 -- or at least until the district gets more money from the state.
In November, she hopes voters will approve a ballot initiative she's been working on that would mandate inflationary increases in state funding for education plus an additional percentage point every year for ten years. The initiative would create a state education fund that would either draw money from the state's annual budget surplus, increase the state sales tax by half a cent or restore a quarter-percent state income tax. If it makes it onto the ballot, the plan could generate up to $350 million more each year for Colorado schools.
"When we have a budget crisis, we have no cushion, no reserve," she says. "We're like a family living on the edge, spending everything we have and not saving anything, and then the unexpected happens, like someone in the family loses their job. I hope my initiative passes in the fall so that we never have to do this again."

"This is a very easy recipe. I've never made pork tenderloin before but it was on sale and this recipe didn't require overnight marinating. It came together easily, marinated for as long as it took my oven to heat and was done in 20 minutes. The flavor was excellent and if you line your baking dish with foil like suggested, clean up is a breeze."
"This is a great and easy carrot cake recipe, especially if you can buy carrot juice and shreds. I've brought this to work and many people like the fact that it is not an overly sweet cake. This cake also freezes well. Since there are only two in my household it is nice to be able to cut the cake up into individual servings and freeze for later."
"This recipe is very similar to smoothies that I make minus the protien powder. I used all the same measurements except instead of strawberry "frozen" yougurt I used just strawberry yougurt and instead of strawberries in syrup I used frozen strawberries.

Thanks for posting this nice..."
"This being my first vegetarian Thanksgiving I used this recipe instead of a normal meat stock based one. It was very falvorful and my meat eating guests found it more than an acceptable substitute. It is also very easy to add spices to compliment any meal."

It looks fine sanga...keep them coming :) Put your caption on a seperate line from the tagline and that will probally fix it |
use the edit button, the click on the resize tab, you will get a drop down menu, I use the 680 x 480 size. You can also set the size you load the photos so you don't have to edit them and resize them. This has save me HOURS of work during Daylily bloom when I'm shooting hundreds of images each day. Up just above the BROWSE buttons where you UPLOAD, there is a MAX IMAGE SIZE: XYZ X ABC (options) CLICK on OPTIONS, and a menu will come up, select the size you want to up load you photos and click SAVE. Now when you upload photos they will be the size you want. CAUTION, you can further reduce size, but you CANNOT increase the size. |
Excellent taste in subject matter for a first photo IMHO. ;-) T. funkiana in all it's glory! |

That area gets morning, early afternoon and some sun in the morning, its pretty well dappled shade during the hottest part of the day.

Just to make it a little more clear, since Photobucket has recently added a fourth line and changed the names slightly... After you upload your photo, you will see 4 lines of code underneath it: The one you want is the HTML Tag line. Right click on it to copy it, then paste it directly in the Message box. If you want to add a caption or comments, put them on a separate line so they won't run together. When you click "Preview Message" you should see your picture. If it's not there, or if the spacing is not right, don't submit the message. You can use the corrections box as many times as you need to to get it right. Once it's posted you can't edit. If you don't want the picture to be seen as part of the message, then you can use it as a link. In that case you have to use the Direct Link line, copy and paste it into the space just below the message box that says "Optional Link URL", and then enter the name of the plant or whatever title you want in the box below that, where it says "Name of the Link". That way the reader has to click on the link to see the picture. This can also be used to add a link to a web page, such as photos on FCBS, or if you have a whole album of pictures you want to show. When you're doing a new posting the link box won't appear at first, but as soon as you preview the message it will be there, so just wait and add your link then, then preview it again and test the link to make sure it works, then submit your message. This makes it much easier for everyone to use than if you just print the URL as part of the message. Hope this helps. It took me a long time to figure it out at first too. As a cyber-newbie I didn't know how to right-click the mouse to copy and paste, so I was trying to copy it all down by hand, LOL. I only recently figured out how much easier it is if you open two windows, D'OH!!! ;-) |
