Identify words having repeated character strings
Have: a file containing English-language words, one word per line, all lower case.
Want: a file containing only those words which have repeated substrings of length 4 or more. Examples: abracadabra handstands hodgepodge lightweight nationalization The desired output file was generated with this grep: Code:
cat < $WrdLst \ The 4 letters alfa appear twice in alfalfa but the substrings overlap. How may my code be improved (or replaced) to find alfalfa? Daniel B. Martin |
Hmm.. The problem is a bit fuzzy. The 'alfalfa' may be matched by '(.{3})\1' but that's probably not what you want. On the other hand the two 4-character substrings in this word have one common character. Do you want to find all such strings (with one or no common charaters and 4 characters length)?
Isn't this the same concept as the consecutive alphabet solution?
awk '{for( i = 1; i <= length - 4; i++)if(substr($0,i+1) ~ substr($0,i,4)){print;next}}' $WrdLst |
Daniel B. Martin |
How about
$ egrep '(.+)(.{2})\1\2\1' /usr/share/dict/words |
@firstfire - this solution does not seem to capture any of the original words in example.
Daniel B. Martin |
Here is another solution, which captures provided examples: Code:
$ echo ababab | sed -r 's/.*/&:&/; s/((.{4}).*):.*\2/[\1]:\2/' |
# Find words which contain repeated 4-letter sequences Code:
ch^ateau Daniel B. Martin |
Slow, but works: Code:
sed -r 's/.*/\L&:&/; /^(.*)(.{4,}).+:\1.+\2/!d; s/:.*//' 1) duplicate a word (transforming to lowercase): "reassesses" => "reassesses:reassesses". 2) line should match: <prefix><substring>.+:<prefix>.+<substring> with the same <substring>. Here <prefix> and .+ (one or more chars; note the `+') are used to prevent matching completely overlapping patterns. Eg: <prefix>="rea"; <substring>="sses"; <.+>[1]="ses"; <.+>[2]="sse". 2a) No match -- delete a line and go to the next one. 2b) Else -- remove second word. The whole idea of this mess is to transform overlapping patterns to non-overlapping ones (they are in two different words). EDIT: Wow! I just downloaded so-called cheap-sed from this page. It runs more than 3 times faster than awk solution presented above and about 60 times faster that GNU sed! Really impressing. Unfortunately it does not supports the `-r' flag so one have to escape all meta characters. |
My awk suggestion:
awk '{ for (i = length($0)-3; i > 1; i--) if (index($0, substr($0, i, 4)) < i) { print ; next } }' input-file > output-file The logic is simple: Starting at the end, check if each four-character substring is repeated earlier in this record. If yes, then print the record and move to the next record. The first four-letter substring does not need to be checked, since all the other checks will compare against it already. Addendum: For fun, I wrote basically the same logic in C using fgets() and strstr() ; the execution time was just 0.13s (45% of mawk execution time, 15% of gawk execution time). Replace strstr() with a double loop of memcmp() tests and the time halves (to 0.06s). Replace it with a triple loop that checks character by character, and the time halves again, to 0.03s. (About 80 megabytes per second, in other words.) The fastest method I could come up with is to memory-map the word list file (using mmap()), and scan and check the words using simple open-coded loops. It scans the word list in 0.02s, at about 120 megabytes per second. (Actually, since that is much too short a time for a reliable measurement, I checked using a hundred-times duplicated wordlist, 250 megabytes/23.5 million words. It does that correctly in 1.94s, i.e. 125 megabytes, or 12 million words, per second.) I don't really want to show the C source code, because it is such an utter hack; I'm lazy, I didn't comment it or handle the SIGBUS if the file changes, and so on. But, here it is anyway: Code:
/* Compile using |
hmmm ... well it took me a minute but as mine is using the regex comparison it does a comparison where it now uses ^ as the start of the string and hence the comparison looks like:
ch^ateau|ateau|^ate NA's index option is better in comparing these accented words. |
With perl...
perl -ne 'print if /(?=(....))(...).*\1/' /usr/share/dict/words The reg exp uses zero-width positive look-ahead assertion (edit) It's slower than NA's awk solution ;) (edit2) Note that gnu grep has -P option to interpret the pattern as perl regular expression Code:
grep -P '(?=(....))(...).*\1' /usr/share/dict/words |
Daniel B. Martin |
This one will do:
grep -P '(?=(....))..*\1' |
All times are GMT -5. The time now is 03:52 PM. |

Boy meets girl....
I am a career-oriented, outgoing, energetic person who would like to someday meet the man of my life. I would describe myself as someone with very strong values, as well as someone who is extremely dedicated to family and friends. I would hope that those around me would say that I take good care of myself and that I am a classy gal. Those closest to me would also say that you would be more likely to find me giving to others rather than to myself as seeing others happy is important to me. A person who I would be interested in getting to know is someone with incredibly strong character and values who is thoughtful of not only my feelings, but also the feelings of those around him, someone who values his career, can be spontaneous, takes pride in himself and can be satisfied being on the go or taking it easy when time allows as well. Faith and spirituality is an ever growing part of my life and something I would like to share with my future mate as well. An interest in exercise is important to me as I enjoy physical activities and would like someone who wants to keep fit and healthy in his life also.

Dubai: The Middle East will have its first-e-Shopping Mall soon, it was revealed at the Gitex Technology Week on Tuesday, offering a major boost to the e-commerce industry.
Plans for region's first e-shopping mall unveiled
Official launch date for the e-mall to be announced soon

- Visitors and delegates browse through various pavilions at the Gitex Technology Week being held in Dubai World Trade Centre.
Backed by Dubai's Department of Economic Development (DED), Tejuri, the e-Shopping Mall will build on the success of Tejari FZE, the B2B online portal that pioneered supply management technologies and professional services over the past decade, Tejari said in a statement, adding that the e-Mall will empower retailers, SME businesses and consumers.
Tejari further said that the official launch date for the e-Mall would be announced soon.
Suhail Al Banna, chief executive of Tejari FZE, said in a statement that the move is a step in the direction of using technology to narrow the gap between the retailer and the consumer.
"Tejuri will add a new dimension to the shopping experience that Dubai is famous for by building on our successful B2B platform, Tejari," he said, adding that the initiative is in line with Dubai Government's commitment to advance technologies geared at "simplifying interactions in the e-marketplace".

New Dance Gavin Dance Song
I'm usually a fan of their stuff, but man does this suck
Digging: Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate) - What It Takes to Move Forward
barring that weird rap at the end this was good.
a lot shittier than the first song they put out
Well, I liked it.
neg. no hyperlink
can't listen in class but i love it
I'm diggin the lyrics
Who digs DGD? I do I do
Everything about this is great except for Tillian and Will's vocals
This band should've never gotten rid of Kurt Travis
I agree those clean vocals are beyond overproduced and thin
Is the rap at the end a joke or?
I could take it as a joke if it was Mess given his personality but ugh
pretty good song ! not as catchy as the last one but some really cool parts !
I'm hoping this will be the weakest song. This is not ugly, but it's forgettable for DGD standards.
as with all lyric vids, the song sounds better if you dont watch the video and just listen to the audio
these guys have made some excellent material in thier past, but man they're really growing dull with each release
No one else loves this? Just me? Damn shame.
as with all lyric vids, the song sounds better if you dont watch the video and just listen to the audio[2] also the rap part was great, wtf?! swan never fails to impress. tilian a bit sub-par for his standards, unfortunately.
I really don't feel Tillian is a good fit for this band.
Digging: Car Seat Headrest - Twin Fantasy
tilian is not a good fit that's probably why. the two songs' structures tell the whole tale.
The music is a lot of fun, but I am not much of a fan of the vocals.
Song rules but I'm not sure I'll ever listen to his voice and not think of Buster from Arthur
I like the vocals. Pretty good song, though yeah, that rap
Song rules, rap is kind of goofy but not surprising given the other things DGD has thrown into songs before.
I enjoyed the song; DGD have always been great song-writers. Tillian's vocals are a bit over-produced but I'm getting used to his sound. All in all, I enjoy the new sound. I just have to pretend I'm listening to a different band.
Tilian is an excellent fit. These are the two most accessible songs on the album, but from what I've heard live from the new album the rest is going to blow these two songs out of the water.
oof. mess' parts sound great. it seems like they're not sure how to fit tillian's voice in with the rest of the band though. on their older songs, all the vocals were intermixed throughout the entire song, whereas from the 2 new songs, the entire band has to break into a separate part just for tillian. makes it seem kind of disjointed. not sure how i feel about it.
"This band should've never gotten rid of Kurt Travis" This. This. This. This. This.
hmm.. song was pretty bad, I guess I'll listen to it without watching the stupid lyric video.
kurt travis is doing amazing things in allb, dgd would have only held him back this song isn't as good as Robot pt4 but some parts are pretty good. some parts suck.... like swan doing his shitty death grips impression :[
Grrr...and I was JUST starting to get used to the clean vocals on the last track. Other wise the track is decent. The guitars seem pretty laid back this time around though.
Vox don't fit.
Really diggin this track and I'm not a fan. Tillian is making this twice as tolerable. He's just a better vocalist than Jonny Craig.
Digging: Of Montreal - Aureate Gloom
i don't like tillian
Digging: Troy Baker - Sitting In the Fire
The fetus eats its own eyes...
"This band should've never gotten rid of Kurt Travis" Yeah obviously but only as long as he still joined ALLB, if he had to choose between the two then ALLB all the way Song is fucking awesome
Jonny Craig is shit without DGD
Johnny is absolutely pathetic without DGD
Agreed the dude can't write music to save his life, barring Children of Divorce
Pretty average.
Digging: Violent Soho - Hungry Ghost
Always feel like I have run a 5k after watching these videos
Decent. I liked Tillian in Tides of Man, not sure he really fits with this band all that well. Mess is on point as usual.
Love DGD, but Tillian sounds too "whinny" on the latest songs. I am not enjoying those parts.
soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood
Well....I liked it...
Digging: Heems - Eat Pray Thug
I liked it more than a lot of DTBM2.......
Digging: Dirty Dishes - Guilty
not bad but i'm hoping the rest of the album is better than the 2 singles
I actually really like Tillian's vocals. Sure, it's a lot different from Johnny and Kurt, but that doesn't bother me. Song is great, not really sure why people are saying it's bad. I didn't even bother looking at the video though. As for the rap...it wasn't Ronnie Radke level bad, and it was just sort of tacked on at the end of the song.
vocals are poor compared to the other song they released
they need to keep the mic away from swan he is terrible. should never have replaced craig after the last album. secret band is probably better than dgd now tbh
secret band ep is better than any dgd full length agreed
It's weird because he's a perfect fit live I don't know who decided to produce the vocals like this its fucked up the sound as a whole
song is eh
rap at the end is retarded
agreed [2]
"I'll ever listen to his voice and not think of Buster from Arthur" lol thanks for ruining this dude's voice even more for me
agreed [2] they need to release that secret band album nowwwww
With this album's singer being Buster from Arthur, I bet the next album will feature Skeeter from Doug Hey Doug! (sweet guitar lick) HONK HONK
Tillian does not fit at all.
Kurt should have never been kicked out.
Yes he should've because now we have ALLB which is in every way a superior band
lol no
but yes
i used to think i didn't care who their clean vocalist was as long as they had mess, but tilian kinda sucks. lame. and swan should really play guitar and never do vox again, he is so bad.
which is in every way a superior bandwhich is in every way a superior bandwhich is in every way a superior bandwhich is in every way a superior bandwhich is in every way a superior bandwhich is in every way a superior band
I dunno, I think this sounds fine. The rapping kind of took away from the end of the song, but it's not like it ruined the entire song like some of you seem to think.
bandwhich chesse whatever point you have to make, it's dumb
amazing as usual
This band is horrendously overrated on this site.
Ronnie Radke raps better than this the fuck
Digging: Drake - If Youre Reading This Its Too Late
really dug everything bar the rap which was awful
this is so bad haha
song isn't as good as the first one. it's ok. might be more appreciable in the context of the whole album.
u guys are tripping. this song is awesome
Everything about this song rules except the rapping.
its eh. robot with human hair pt. 4 was fucking amazing though. AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LITTLE SHITS TALKING ABOUT!? THE RAP WAS THE BEST PART!
band is overrated everywhere but that's because they're mainstream AND good
Song was really great. The only things I didn't really like were the rap and Tillian's vocals, and the only thing I didn't like about Tillian's vocals was the fact that they were overproduced and not really clear.
Won't be the same without KT or JC
Digging: Cursive - The Ugly Organ
@azninva5in I wouldn't exactly call DGD mainstream. Only the Jonny Craig stuff is overrated. Everything else is spot on.
album is gonna be better than DBM2
This sounds awesome when u only hear the audio. Except the rap. The rap is still shit.
I liked it. weird i don't really this band
tillian is an amazing vocalist, but a horrible addition to DGD
the first single was great, this one's just bad
I have a feeling this album will be a low 3.5
The clean vocals are going to ruin everything

deep scratch on top layer, need cover-up?
i have a pretty deep scratch on the top layer of the board (top/binding side). would leaving this alone affect the longevity of the board in any way? should i just get some all-weather acrylic paint or something and fill in the gap?

I'd say fill it up if its very deep - use epoxy or superglue or soemthing. Just make sure it will handle cold temperatures...

Doc is originally from N. Hollywood California. He was born to aspiring vocalist Sheila Carter. When he was three his father was trying to produce an album for Sheila when dad became ill. They had to return to New Jersey to be around his mother's side of the family. His father then passed and mom remarried a military man. He and his three sisters became "Army brats." They traveled the U.S. extensively and wound up back in California. Only this time in Monterey. Doc has been all over the country on what he has called a roller coaster ride. He hopes you can hear a bit of his experience come through in his music. He's received a handful of accolades over the years. Recently he was selected to be a member of "Raw Artists"(Philadelphia). He was voted the "stand-out performer" at The World Cafe Live, Philly's premier open mic competition. One of his songs was available in over 300 online stores!! And his favorite accolade came in an email from 3 Doors Down in 2008. "Great Stuff!!" A short but sweet comment that sums up Doc's music! His favorite part of writing & performing are the close relationships formed with his fans. Doc's fans feel inescapably connected to him through his original songwriting. His words & feelings, translated through his melodic voice, evoke a strong positive reaction in all of his invaluable fans. He appreciates all of the support he's received over the years and is hoping to continue traveling but now as a "music brat." He's sorta learned to live out of a suitcase. He's just passin' through and he hopes to see you along the way.

Does hyperthreading on the i7 really help? (self.VideoEditing)
submitted 1 year ago by DaftlyPunkish
I'm trying to build a pc for video and 3d rendering. I've been told that an i7 is worth the extra money because of how much hyperthreading helps with render times. I've also heard that Intel is better than AMD when it comes to video performance.
What processors do you guys have in your work station and how do they perform? I don't know a whole lot about CPUs so I'm open to all suggestions.
[–]ljosquaredl 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (10 children)
I have a baseline rMBP and it blows threw anything I throw at it. Id say it's worth what you pay since the difference between i5 and i7 benchmarks seems to be a good 2-3k on benchmarks http://browser.primatelabs.com/mac-benchmarks
[–][deleted] 1 year ago* (5 children)
[–]Mastajdog 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I'd agree with all that, but if you want both and are up for an adventure, /hackintosh can help with that.
[–]DaftlyPunkish[S] 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago* (3 children)
I'm sorry but I can't stand Apple. I just sold my 21.5" mid 2011 iMac. I have yet to find software on Apple that that either isn't available on PC or doesn't have an equivalent counterpart that produces the same if not higher quality. My biggest beef with my iMac was that they used outdated graphics cards that were nearly impossible to get to.
Mac pros are so ridiculously expensive that I could build 2 reliable pc's that are just as powerful. Mac pros are overpriced to the full extent of the word.
Don't even get me started on their ridiculous software updates. Mountain lion costs $20 to upgrade to and the most notable feature it gives you is a notification bar on the side. Mac OSX has a pretty UI that's easy to use and that's the only credit I'll give it.
I tried Mac and it was decent at best. There is no reason to spend all that extra money on Apple when you can build a badass PC that's going to do all the same things and produce the same quality product.
Edit: Post thought: The fact that certain folders are hidden by default in the finder because they don't think I'm smart enough to know what I'm looking at is just downright insulting.
[–]averynicehat 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Yeah, if you are savvy enough to build your own PC, and you're basically just using Adobe Products, just go PC. Most software that is on both platforms performs just as reliably on either OS. You don't really actually DO that much stuff in the OS. You launch your software, then you're in the software's UI, not the OS.
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (1 child)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure there are a lot of hidden folders in Windows...at least, to mod Minecraft you need to access a hidden folder.
[–]DaftlyPunkish[S] 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I've done a few mods but I've never had to use a folder that was hidden by default. Everything that's not in the My Computer window can be found through the control panel.
[–]knullcon 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (3 children)
Bench marking expensive old macs to newer more expensive macs but having no PCs in that list is like thinking you are the fastest runner in the world because you always beat your little brother.
[–]ljosquaredl 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (2 children)
U shouldn't be comparing the old macs to new macs, u should be comparing the i5 iMacs to i7 iMacs, or i5 MBPs to the i7 MBPs. I had no idea where a PC benchmark list was but this works fine since Mac computers now use the same intel chips as PC computer do.
[–]knullcon 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (1 child)
From my personal experience an $8k mac can't even begin to touch a PC that is a third of the price.
[–]ljosquaredl 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago (0 children)
Stop looking at the 8k macs on the benchmarks lol
[–]WestonP 2 points3 points4 points 1 year ago* (0 children)
Yes, I develop video apps, and the i7's hyper-threading definitely makes a big difference. It will report twice as many cores to apps (so a quad looks like an octo), so apps will automatically make use of it where possible. My testing has shown a clear advantage in taking this at face value and running 8 worker threads, rather than 4 (which would be optimal for a traditional quad core). I'm very pleased with the i7... there's a lot of parallel work in image / video processing that benefits from effectively having more cores.
[–]NoAirBanding 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago* (0 children)
For video encoding when things are equal, like with the 3570k and the 3770k, the hyperthreadding will give an extra little boost.
[–]agent42b 0 points1 point2 points 1 year ago (0 children)
I think hyperthreading adds some boost when applications need extra cores in short bursts. However, when doing rendering of big files that need conintuous access to a cpu core, I find it doesn't help all that much.
That is why, for example, after effects has parameters built in to try to land its processes on a 'real' cpu core rather than a virtual (ie hyperthreaded) one.
Having said that, I use a rMBP 2.6 quad i7. Runs great and all, but raw horsepower wasn't the main reason for the purchase.

Used Honda Civic Owner Reviews
I bought my civic because they are reliable and long lasting. It is safe, good on gas as well and has all the modern amenities such as GPS and a sun roof.
I have always bought used cars, but the 2008 Honda Civic was the first car I bought new after thorough research. I drive it every day to work--long commute that averaged more than 100 miles round trip. The Civic has been very reliable, and essentially problem free. It feels roomy inside, has lots of pickup, and of course, gets excellent gas mileage, which is why I bought it. I will give it to my teen daughter and probably buy another Civic, this time getting a slightly used one to get the best deal possible.
Model Overview
In 2013 sales of Honda Civic toped 335,180 units, an increase of 5.7 percent from 2012. As of 2006, a total of 16.5 million Honda Civics had been sold worldwide (7.3 million of them in the United States) and since then has sold a few million more. The dreaded high gas prices and a weak economy in June of 2008 made the Civic the top-selling vehicle in the United States for that month. Over the years, Honda has increased the size of the Civic, but it has also become more fuel efficient. To see how fuel efficiency has steadly improved, the 2000 Honda Civic sedan automatic is rated 24 city / 32 highway while the 2014 Civic is rated 30 city / 39 highway mpg. After complaints of a drop in build quality for 2012 that lead to the Civic slipping in some rankings, Honda quickly responded by improving interior features for 2013 and recovered its status with reviewers.
If you are looking for a compact car in sedan, hatch, or coupe configurations, the Honda Civic is an excellent choice due to its long production run and its wide range of trim levels and options. If your budget allows, there are many upgrades that can be found in a Honda Civic such as 17-inch alloy wheels, leather steering wheel, driver's seat with power adjustments, leather-trimmed seats, heated front seats, fog lights, deluxe power side mirrors, Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System, Honda HD Digital Traffic, High-Resolution WVGA Electrostatic Touch-Screen, Multi-Angle Rearview Camera with Dynamic Guidelines and Customizable Feature Settings, HD Radio, and XM Radio.
Used 2014 Civics can be found in the seven different trims; the Sedan (MSRP $18,390), Coupe (MSRP $18,190), Si (sports) Sedan (MSRP $22,715), Si Coupe (MSRP $22,515), Civic HF (MSRP $19,765), Civic Hybrid (MSRP $24,360), and Civic Natural Gas (MSRP $26,305). For 2015, Honda tweaked the front design of the Civic to make it look more like the Accord. It also retired the five-speed automatic transmission, and replaced it with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) to improve fuel economy.
2014 Honda Civic Safety Ratings
All versions of the 2014 Honda Civic have dual airbags with multiple-threshold front airbags and front and back seat side curtain airbags. An anti-lock braking system (ABS) with electronic brake distribution, helps prevent wheel lockup and maintain steering control when braking hard. Daytime running lights will enhance your visibility and help other drivers spot your car. Three-point seat belts with an automatic tension system will restrain occupants during sudden stops or impacts. These features ensure maximum safety, making you feel secure while driving.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has named the Civic Sedan a 2013 Top Safety Pick.
Noteworthy About the Honda Civic
- The 2009 Honda Civic won car of the year.
- The 2013 Honda Civic is the only car in its class to earn the highest safety rating of "Good" from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
- In 2013, the Honda Civic was named one of Kelley Blue Book's 10 Coolest New Cars Under $18,000, 10 Best New Sedans Under $25,000, and Best Resale Value Top 10 List.
- US News ranked the 2014 Civic #4 for most affordable car.

Before Lady Gaga: 3 Artists That Rocked The Simpsons
As the longest-running American sitcom ever, The Simpsons has been a part of our television lives for what seems like forever. It has become a cultural touchstone and a source of many funny moments over the years, but most of all it has been the coolest medium to see all our favorite celebrities in animated form! We always tune in when we hear about celebrity guests and this coming Sunday's Lady Gaga episode is no exception. Gaga is set to guest-star on the season finale of The Simpsons on May 20th.
All this excitement over Gaga's appearance (and her 18 costume-changes on the show) had us thinking about the other artists who have appeared on the show over the years. Here are your picks for Top 3 artists who rocked The Simpsons:
3. Elton John
On the episode "I'm With Cupid," Elton John made an appearance to sing a modified version of "Your Song" for Apu and Manjula as a Valentine's Day gift. It. Was. Adorable!
2. Britney Spears
In an episode called "The Mansion Family" Britney Spears guest-stars as the host of the Grammy Awards. While she doesn't really sing in the episode, she's seen wearing one of the outfits from her "Hit Me Baby One More Time" video.
1. Paul McCartney
Paul and his then-wife Linda McCartney appeared on The Simpsons episode "Lisa The Vegetarian" and encouraged Lisa to lead a vegetarian lifestyle. The cutest part? When Paul told Lisa that if she played "Maybe I'm Amazed" backwards, she'd hear a recipe for lentil soup!

April 1, 2014 The Stash ListWeek OneWelcome back to my focal column here at Baseball Prospectus, The Stash List. I know, you've missed it. But for the 2014 season, we're starting right from Week 1 with a first look at who you should be spending valuable reserve slots on in your league. For those of you not familiar with this column and the types of players who are included/excluded from it, I will now throw it out to past Bret to explain from April of 2013: The purpose of it is to rank the top 25 players who are not active contributors to fantasy teams for 2013 only. Again, it does not take into account future value, which would result in a very different order. This list will include four different types of players, with specific restrictions attached: Minor Leaguers: anyone currently in the minors. There is no ownership restriction for this category. Major Leaguers on the DL: anyone current on the disabled list that is owned in fewer than 25 percent of leagues. The restriction is there to exclude obvious players like Hanley Ramirez or Zack Greinke, as I find it hard to believe they'd be on the wire in any leagues. Closers-in-waiting: any reliever who is not actively getting saves and is owned in fewer than 25 percent of leagues. This excludes pitchers who are in "committees" and setup men who are widely owned for their own values, like Aroldis Chapman during April and May of 2012. Others-in-waiting: any other player who is not currently active in the role that would net him the most fantasy value. This includes pitchers who are in line for a rotation spot but are not currently there, and position players who are not receiving regular playing time. These are players who would see a huge uptick in value from a change in role, like Kris Medlen in 2012.

Apr 01, 2014 04:42 AM Morales and Drew aren't part of the universe for this list, though if you're allowed to pick them up, they certainly make for interesting fliers. Francisco isn't a guy I'd be worried about stashing at this point--even if he got the playing time, I doubt he'd be able to do enough with it. Apr 01, 2014 07:13 AM Eddie Bajek (19796) Jonathan Gray comes to mind as a possible glaring omission. Apr 01, 2014 04:53 AM Matthew W (18422) Maybe let him throw a pitch in double A, before we worry about when he will have an impact... Apr 01, 2014 05:22 AM Couldn't have said it better myself. I like Gray a lot long term, but he doesn't belong here yet. Apr 01, 2014 07:13 AM Eddie Bajek (19796) But if he goes out and shoves in his AA debut, which a lot of scouts expect him to do, will it not be too late at that point? Maybe I'm just used to a deeper league... Apr 01, 2014 13:26 PM huztlers (39432) That is the type of stash which can cost you your league. This is not the top 25 prospects, it is players which may make an impact sooner than later. Apr 01, 2014 14:28 PM Eddie Bajek (19796) I think we disagree on how quickly Gray will be ready. I envision a Gerrit Cole 2013 type season. Apr 02, 2014 04:37 AM Behemoth (46675) It's unlikely that the Rockies will be in contention for long enough to make it worth rushing him. Realistically, even if he destroys AA, he'll be there for a couple of months. Probably a month or so at AAA as well to take him past the super-2 deadline. So in that case, you get half a season. If he doesn't lay waste immediately and every time, you get less of him. Even if he does, he has to pitch very well in the bigs immediately to have value, given that he plays in Colorado. Apr 02, 2014 06:38 AM jaked2782 (70951) thanks again for doing this list..i very much looked forward to seeing this each week last year.. I havent heard many talk about Nationals pitcher AJ Cole..what do you think his chances are of getting the call and returning some value? Apr 01, 2014 05:46 AM I'd be surprised if Cole saw major league time in 2014 for two reasons. First, the Nationals have at least seven starters ahead of him (Roark, Jordan, Detwiler). Second, he's not ready and needs to make real strides with his breaking ball to get major league hitters out on a consistent basis. Apr 01, 2014 07:15 AM jlowery (65288) I would lobby for Matt Wisler making the list, with Josh Johnson now hurt, question marks at the back of the rotation, Casey Kelly not ready yet, etc. Taking park factor into account he at least deserves honorable mention above Butler, and I would argue he should make the list above Stroman as well. Apr 01, 2014 06:16 AM Wisler was one of the last cuts from the list. And it stems from both the fact that I don't think Wisler is ready to contribute meaningfully yet and that I believe in both Robbie Erlin and Casey Kelly (when he returns). Wisler will see major league time this year, but I don't think it comes until the second half. Apr 01, 2014 07:23 AM Graz96 (74442) Hey Bret, where do you see Carlos Correa ending up this year on the list? Any chance for a call up in September? Apr 01, 2014 07:43 AM Nojsztat (71724) You realize he hasn't even played in A Advanced yet, let alone AA, right? Apr 01, 2014 08:04 AM t0mmyo (77562) Carlos Martinez missing out on the last rotation spot is a crime. Apr 01, 2014 10:27 AM PDXPatrick (77076) Have been thinking about dropping Javier Baez and then saw this. Thanks for helping me trust my draft-day self. Apr 01, 2014 10:46 AM MaineSkin (65713) How about LaStella? I know he's not as sexy as the players listed above, but like Villar and mini-Krush (who can't hit a CB), the non-elite are essential to deep leagues. Apr 01, 2014 11:12 AM andrewdeeble (66626) Hey Bret, if you put the list together this morning would the Parnell injury put Vic Black on the list? We know Valverde can't get it done, right? Apr 01, 2014 11:22 AM Jquinton82 (54222) Why would you ever put Jesus Montero on this list, even in the form of an honorable mention? ...he's been nothing but awful since being traded to Seattle. Apr 01, 2014 11:52 AM BarryR (1188) Colby Lewis is still on the DL and I think should be on this list, perhaps partnered with Niese, like the Walker/Bradley pairing. Apr 01, 2014 13:17 PM I have zero faith in Colby Lewis both staying healthy and being productive. Apr 01, 2014 14:38 PM SC (27400) Is Byron Buxton just too far away from the majors to merit mention? Seems like he could be up this summer if the Twins are terrible, though he may take a few years to get going the long-term value is tempting. Apr 01, 2014 13:18 PM ironcurtin (77103) Wishing roster sizes were larger in my league. Dropped Loney and replaced with Geroge Springer. Who the heck is Jesus Montero?! Apr 01, 2014 13:32 PM Hodiggity2001 (67831) Been waiting for this. Interesting that you have syndergaard higher than Bradley and walker. And Johnson for that matter. How did you come to that decision? Apr 01, 2014 18:29 PM tonygartner (30736) As the date becomes closer,will be making an estimate of the "super 2" date. It would be helpful for planning when to try and pick up a minor leaguer who could get called up. Apr 02, 2014 10:35 AM BPKevin (48561) With SB a commodity usually sought after, would you think Billy Burns would be a decent stash in a deep league? Apr 02, 2014 11:05 AM VinnyCora (79492) If Kris Bryant gets called up, he's at least a top 10 on this list, if not top 5. Either Brett forgot him, or doesn't believe he will get called up until 2015.

Latest 243 Ida Stories
Researchers at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville have made a novel discovery that may potentially protect the world from future collisions with asteroids.
Small asteroids contain a layer of loose, unconsolidated rock and dust known as a regolith composed of centimeter-sized fragments and smaller particles.
An asteroid the size of a small office block is due to pass by Earth on Friday 15 February in one of the closest 'near-misses' in recent history.
Asteroids with moons, which scientists call binary asteroids, are common in the solar system. A longstanding question has been how the majority of such moons are formed.

Galileo Probe -- The Galileo probe was an unmanned probe sent by NASA to study the planet Jupiter and its moons. Named after the astronomer Galileo Galilei, it was launched on October 18 1989 by the Space Shuttle Atlantis and arrived at Jupiter on December 7 1995. Galileo's launch had been significantly delayed by the hiatus in Space Shuttle launches that occurred after the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster, and new safety protocols that were implemented as a result forced Galileo to use...
Dactyl Asteroid -- Dactyl, discovered in 1993, is a tiny asteroid (diameter 1.4 km) that orbits asteroid 243 Ida. The origins of Dactyl are unclear. The two main theories are that it and Ida formed at the same time, and that it was knocked loose by a later impact. Both have problems. Dactyl, found by the Galileo probe was the first asteroid moon discovered. ----- NASA Click here to learn more on this topic from eLibrary:

The Anderson News recently printed the 2015 proposed increases for Kentucky Utility customers. If you still have access to the KU notifications as printed in The Anderson News, I would advise you to peruse those proposed rate increases.
I read those rates line by line, calculated the results and it immediately raised a red flag which prompted me to call Kentucky Utilities in Louisville to speak to a representative. She was very nice but I did all of the talking and she merely confirmed my suspicions.

It is spring of 2012, the second week of the H1N1 virus. I lie completely still on the couch, breathing small, shallow breaths. My skull is pounding, throbbing, making my ears ring something horrible as I listen to the commercial ending and the news coming back on the TV.
"Breaking news today: there have been 20 more 911 calls concerning the deaths of more H1N1, or as some call it the swine flu, victims across the state."
As the calendar starts to creep up on Christmas, I thought this would be a good time to focus on saving a little green. The cold temperatures have made for some chilly days and nights, and that means electric bills will be going up as fast as the Christmas trees.

Column as I see 'em …
Those easily angered should probably skip this column and read the one on the faith page.
From the president's unilateral action on immigration to state fuel taxes and something so pedestrian as a set of scales, one can't help but wonder how the people we elect get away certain things while we sit back and simply keep paying the bills.
First the scales, for which the fiscal court used $62,000 of your money to purchase but as of Friday aren't being used.

4.5 Pretty darn good Bunman | 22/10/2012 | See all Bunman's reviews (39) So, I bourght this without knowing too much about it. I knew it was made by Id and Bethesda and the pics I saw kinda reminded me of Fallout 3 (win). A couple of my mates liked it, nature took its course, I got it. As my title says, (I think) it's pretty darn good. Like I thought, it kinda has that Fallout feel to it, except it isn't as "open". Although there are parts for you to explore, it's quite linear, so don't expect hours or free-roaming. One thing that really bugged me about the game was the lack of checkpoint saving. Several times I played through a sizable chunk of a mission, only to be shot dead and have to do the whole mission again. Yeah, I hear what you're saying...I should have manually saved when I had the chance. But the manual save process takes a while, and in the heat of the moment, fresh out of battle and when the blood is pumping, you don't always remember to save straight away. More fool me!It's a good game. The graphics are great and the action is excellent. For the price, you could do a lot worse!
4.5 Awesome! Ianjong | 16/05/2012 | See all Ianjong's reviews (19) I went into this game not knowing what to expect...and what I found was an awesome FPS with a good storyline, and the best enemy AI of any FPS ever! One of the few games I have played to conclusion without getting bored. Get it, you won't regret it!
4.5 RAGEaholic! Rocklee | 08/04/2012 | See all Rocklee's reviews (13) Just completed this moments ago! Rage is a wonderful FPS, set in a post apocalyptic world of bandits, mutants and some colourful and unique NPCs. From the outset the world seems huge and when you reach your first settlement, it is clear that this game has a lot to offer. There are plenty of side missions etc. to keep you busy for a good long while. The addition of the races (dune buggies etc.) provides welcome respite from the FPS action, everything is customisable or upgradable in some way, from your weapons to your vehicles. The greatest achievement I feel I.D have provided is the enemy A.I, they respond in such a smart and lifelike way! Rolling for cover, flushing you out with grenades, falling back and in some cases crawling over the walls and ceiling in an effort to kill you! The RAGE card game is also a welcome feature, and a good way to make in game money. As I said before, there is a lot going on for this game, graphically it is wonderful, the audio is great, with a strong voice cast including the legendary Steve Blum! The only flaw I found was the ending, it seemed unfinished somehow, I was left without a "main boss battle" and not many ends tied up. Would have been nice to see a cinematic ending where you are given some kind of conclusion. But still, RAGE is a game I can highly recommend!
4.5 Rage on a budget! Fartion | 14/03/2012 | See all Fartion's reviews (1) Just got this game a few days ago and wished i had picked it u sooner, utterly fantastic. Gun fighting. Good. Racing. Gooood. Overall awesome. You cant knock this game, especially for this price. You wont be disappointed
4.5 SHOCKING!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! Glitched | 08/02/2012 | See all Glitched's reviews (3) This is not a role playing game! Just because you do a few quest off a job board! think bugstheda doesn't know the difference between easy and nightmare! Nightmare? The whole game is a nightmare should of never been released. I must of counted a total of 5 different enemies. Racing is totally irrelevant to the game. And the music well what can I say..........tacky american. One word of advice don't waste the next 10 hours of your life!! Shame I have to give it one star.
4.5 let the rage begin dhill96 | 28/01/2012 | See all dhill96's reviews (76) this is a good fun rpg yes if you just did the main story and only the main story it wouldn't be a long game but these kind of are about so much more its the exploring the hidden items the side quests the race championships if you get involed and do the game right you'll find a good 15 hours plus rpg wise this might not sound long but the game has a lot of good points which more than makes up for it with a solid story good weapons and extras like turrets ,bots, rc bombs etc and good flow through the game good action and levels well worth it yeah its no final fantasy length but these games are what you make them
4.5 AMAZING!!! joelshepp | 09/10/2011 | See all joelshepp's reviews (3) This game is exceptional. It arrived yesterday and I have clocked up 10 hours so far...unputdownable!!!! Classic 1st person shooter, just like Doom.

After biking around Lake Brienz for a while, we decided we were going to have to speed things up if we also wanted to go on a high-altitude hike. The ferry came in handy...
The colors aren't modified here - the shot naturally had a really gorgeous pink patina.
Ben Clinch, Xobel, Clay Kippen, and 7 other people added this photo to their favorites.
I love it! I love it!
I think the pink in the boat is a terrific touch. Sets the foreground apart from the sky and gives those two elements have a romantic, journey feel to them!

I've been freelancing as a brand identity artist for about a year now and there are some things I have learned along the way. I researched a lot of articles about freelancing but all of them tended to say the same things, like don't quit your day job until you have a solid plan in place, be prepared to market yourself, get to know your tax laws, etc etc etc. While this is all great advice, there are still some things that I feel people should have told me.

I spend a fair amount of time working on web design. After a full day at the office, it's not uncommon for me to come home and work on my own site, blog or other personal projects.

Health IT Gets a Hand from the Government
Health IT Gets a Hand from the Government
M.L. Baker
Posted 2006-02-15
Two national agencies have lent resources to health care providers to help them adopt their own IT.
In moves that might disappoint consultants, two prominent national agencies released resources this week to help health care providers adopt information technology. Many of the resources center on humans and workflow, rather than hardware and software. The announcements were timed to capture the attention of attendees at the annual meeting of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society in San Diego.
Despite tireless cheerleading and some seed money from the federal government, few providers have adopted health information technology.
One barrier is that providers dont want to invest in technology that they perceive as beneficial to insurance companies. Another barrier is concern that health IT, particularly the initial implementation phase, will decrease the number of patients that doctors can visit each day and cause a drop in revenue. Yet another is unfamiliarity and uncertainty.
Tech companies pay doctors to get IT.

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, part of the Department of Health and Human Services, launched a suite of on-line
"learning resources"
for adopting health IT.
As part of the offering, healthcare providers who have already adopted the technology will describe their experiences, including unpleasant surprises, easy mistakes and, ultimately, rosy outcomes. The agency, better known for completing studies and issuing reports, is moving quickly. Rather than wait for finished findings, AHRQ is creating the public resources now to capture lessons learned as they emerge. Topics include laws and standards, operations, organizational strategy, organizations, technology and value of health IT. The government has also created an overall
health IT Web site.
"The goal is simple: Help health care providers at the ground level learn from each others real-world experience and give them easy access to the best information available," said AHRQ Director Carolyn M. Clancy. "Adoption of health IT will be too slow if providers have to reinvent the wheel one by one. This shared learning tool brings the lessons of experience together in one place." Another offering from the National Alliance for Health Information Technology deals primarily with managing organizational change when hospitals adopt technologies that require physicians to request tests and medications on an electronic system, called CPOE (computerized physician order entry). Fewer than 5 percent of hospitals have such systems installed. The Alliances guide costs $295 or $395 and walks senior executives through the decisions that must be made to implement CPOE. It describes how to create internal teams, manage cultural change, redesign workflows, provide training and technical support as well as, of course, implementing the technology.
