Hey guys, hope you can help me out here. I brewed up a pilsner on Thursday night roughly based on the clone recipe for Victory Prima Pils I found on this site. I used Saflager Saflager S-23 since my LHBS was out of Wyeast 2124. I just built an active fermentation temperature control system based on the water fermentation chamber builds I found in the DIY section and I set my ferment temp at 50F using. The system works great so far, but I pushed my luck by going away for a couple days this weekend. I loaded up my chilling cooler with ice water before I left in the hopes that it could maintain 50F for 48 hours, but when I got back this afternoon I found that the ice had completely melted and the fermenting beer was up to 62F. So basically I figure the beer had about two to three days at exactly 50C and about a half a day to a day rising up from 50 to 62. Now that I'm back home should I knock it back down to 50 or just maintain 62? I know that it's generally not a good idea to cool yeast down too much or they might go to sleep and I definitely want this beer to dry out. I was going to do a diacetyl rest anyway, is it a huge deal if it's coming a couple days too early? Any help that experienced lager brewers can provide would be appreciated.
I've never used S-23, but from what I've heard and read it works better and tastes better at higher temps than most lager yeasts. Apparently it finishes very dry and fruity, so it will probably be great for a Prima-like beer. I'd leave it at 62..

My Houzz: Hodgepodge Happiness in a Santa Cruz Beach House
by Shannon Malone · 18 photos · 89 comments
"Our home is basically a hodgepodge of things that I think represents us as a family," Hodges says. "What I really want in my home is to be surrounded by things I love. That's why almost everything we own has a story."
Her grandmother's slipcovered sofa in the living room is one of her favorite pieces. "She passed away over 20 years ago, and I still love sitting in the same spot she always did," Hodges says. "I know she'd approve that I let Mack, our bulldog, up on it — that's why it's slipcovered, after all."
Santa Cruz artist Carol Bowie painted the piece above the sofa. "I was talking to friends about how much I loved that piece, where I saw it, and when I came home the next day it was propped on my porch," she says. "One of my best friends had purchased it for me. I was thrilled, to say the least."
The painting over the fireplace is by Suzanne Etienne, titled "Three Amigos."

The painting over the fireplace is by Suzanne Etienne, titled "Three Amigos."
"I'd call my style 'urban junk,'" Hodges says. "I'm inspired by my mother, who passed away seven years ago. She had a knack for incredible style on a limited budget and was constantly moving things around, painting a wall, framing kids' art."
Hodges found two of her armchairs and the coffee table at the Alameda Point Antiques Faire, her favorite place to be on the first Sunday of every month.

Hodges found two of her armchairs and the coffee table at the Alameda Point Antiques Faire, her favorite place to be on the first Sunday of every month.
The couple spends most weekends in the sunny living room, lounging and reading newspapers. "I love to hunker down in the big white chair in the corner with a cup of coffee," Hodges says. "The living room for our family represents downtime.
by Shannon Malone
The green hutch in the corner of the living room is Hodges's favorite piece of furniture, which she also found at the Alameda Point Antiques Faire.
"Every month for a year I would ask the guy selling it, How much?" she says. "He started at $2,000, but by the end of the year he said, 'Don't you ask me about this every month?' When I said yes, he said, 'Just give me $500 and take it; I'm sick of hauling it around.'"

Hodges bought the dining room table and chairs at a garage sale held by her neighbor, interior designer Lorri Kershner.
"It's old, worn down and heavy, but I love it," says Hodges. "Garage sales and flea markets are a weekend outing for us. It's recycling at its best."

Hodges' mother-in-law, who lives in Oklahoma, created the mosaic piece in the dining room.

"What I love most about the house is the flow and light," Hodges says. "It just has a good feel to it. You can walk a circle and basically see everything. It fits the family — open and out there."

Wanting to steer clear of typical bar stools, Hodges scored this pair at the Santa Cruz Flea Market and reupholstered them with scraps of fabric she had lying around.

Plans for the kitchen remodel were a bit off-the-cuff. "The design was scrawled on paper and handed to the contractor during the remodel," Hodges says.
by Shannon Malone
"What I enjoyed the most when it came to making changes was when a contractor would say, 'What? That won't look right!' or, 'Why on earth would you do that?' I knew then I was on the right track," she says.

The guest bathroom is home to more antique finds, including a pedestal sink and rustic shelves used for storage. The stone figure is from a trip to Singapore.
by Shannon Malone
This TV room, in the center of the home, is outfitted with a plush leather couch and a cozy nook perfect for enjoying a good book.
by Shannon Malone
The floor of the main bedroom is made of concrete and copper. "It's never too hot or too cold, it's easy to clean and, more importantly, it's beautiful," Hodges says.
by Shannon Malone
The trunk at the foot of the bed, as well as the trunk Hodges uses as a nightstand, were both antiques store finds. "The trunk actually has a London, England, address scrawled across the burlap top inside. I love that." she says.
by Shannon Malone
Hodges won the backyard henhouse in a bet with her husband. "Mark and I were arguing over who knew how to lose weight fastest," she says. "Guess who won? Chickens was what I wanted. I usually collect about three eggs a day; it's the best!"
by Shannon Malone
Jennifer Hodges, shown here, recently painted her front door canary yellow, brightening up the home and making it stand out among the other houses on the street. "It has brought a smile to my face every time I see it," she says. "It's so bright and cheerful, unlike anything else on the street."

Funny story about the hutch, but is that an original Eames chair in front of it? I didn't see any reference to it although it is in a focal point in the picture. We had chickens when the children were young. Wonderful "pets" and they give you something in return besides unconditional love. We enjoyed them but the neighbors took exception to the rooster's early crowing every morning!

Jennifer, You have taken your Mom's "urban junk" style to new and stylish heigths! Your home has a great sense of flow that some vintage and eclectic collectors' homes lack. Your careful use of color is great - I see you used a mostly white background (walls) and the larger furniture pieces are also white, but selective use of wood fueniture, plus color accents in pillows and on paintings really works. It also says "beach" without a single shell collection, well done! AND it makes you smile, which is the best part.

Of course! Not expensive at all comparatively...the contractor basically split the room into 4 pieces and poured 4 slabs. He used wood as the frame but after it dried pulled out the wood and set the copper. The strips are a couple inches wide. It's pretty cool because you all know what copper looks like as it ages. Initially I wondered how it would be to keep clean but its a snap. Just a broom and here and there wipe up spills. :) I think it may be much dirtier than I can see! :)

What body type do you resemble?
Before you begin working out, it is important to have a good understanding of what kind of body type you have in order to fulfill your fitness goal; after all, you would not ask your tailor to alter a garment without first giving him the measurements, which is the first step in a good fit. In fitness, there is a progression as well. The first step is to assess your body composition to give you a better understanding on what exercises and foods are right for you.
Basically, there are three different body types - ectomorph, endomorph, and mesomorph. It is important to understand that most people are a combination of these types, but the dominant traits are what you should be looking for in your assessment. Let's look at the different body types:
- Ectomorph: This person has a light bone structure, long limbs, flat chest, and small shoulders. The ectomorph has a tough time gaining weight and building strength. Example: marathon runners.
- Mesomorph: The ideal body type for athletics and show. This person has a large bone structure, good symmetry, and the capacity for quick gains in muscle. The pure mesomorph can be a top grade bodybuilder. Example: Mr. Olympia.
- Endomorph: A stocky individual with a thick bone structure. This body type has a tendency to hold more fat, to remain blocky without meaningful definition. Strength and size come easily for this body type. Example: NFL offensive linemen.
Although there are some people who are purely one particular body type, most people have a combination of the traits. For example, someone may have a slight bone structure (ectomorph) but can grow muscle to the extent of becoming a fine athlete (mesomorph). On the other side of the body type continuum, the stockier, heavy-set person (endomorph) may have outstanding athleticism and great symmetry (mesomorph).
As Clint Eastwood said, "A man's got to know his limitations."
Regardless of your predominant body type, even as a mesomorph, work has to be done.
If you're leaning on the ectomorphic side of the continuum, train with structural lifts (bench, squat, deadlift) to develop a stronger foundation. And substantially increase the calories in your diet. If you need to eat six meals a day, space your meals three hours apart for better digestion. And drink lots of water to flush out wastes, transport body nutrients, and regulate body temperature.
For the endomorph, you may want to add higher repetitions to your weightlifting regimen, and add more aerobic activities such as bicycle riding, interval sprinting, and swimming to streamline your physique. In your diet, you will have to be more calorie conscious. Limit, or do without, fatty red meat; instead, add fish, turkey, and skinless chicken as your major protein source; for energy, eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables as your major carbohydrate source, and drink lots of water.
If you're lucky enough to be on the mesomorphic side of the continuum, you will have an easier time choosing how you work out and what you can eat; however, even the genetically gifted are not exempt from sliding into a physique rut; for many, it's easy to become complacent with laziness and eating binges.
Once you have diagnosed what your body type is, you can now modify your workout and diet accordingly. And by all means, stay hungry - in a fit way.

i.e. abc.php?pic=123.jpg, so query_string contains '123.jpg'?
The manual is very simple to use and a absolute goldmine of usefull information ;)
e.g. <a href="getimage.php?name=123.jpg"> and when the user clicks this link, the getimage.php script is able to get the parameter off the link line...
Regular expressions!
Rather you than me pal ;)
If you really want the whole query string, which in the example above would be "variablename=value" (NOT just "value"!), you can use getenv($QUERY_STRING), or just $QUERY_STRING, depending on your settings.

I'm unemployed, so I got really excited when they announced my name. My call wouldn't go through - I hadn't paid my phone bill and the line was disconnected. FMLToday, I was feeling sick and having trouble breathing easily. I decided to take a nap and apparently ended up sleeping with my mouth wide open since breathing was an issue. I woke up to my boyfriend trying to put his penis in my mouth. FMLToday, I was texting two people at once. Trying to respond to my friend's text, I accidentally clicked on this guy's name instead, who I've never met. He just told me about his grandma's funeral he went to that was an open casket. I responded with, "Haha wow you slut, I'm sure you were aroused." FMLToday, I was arrested because my 6 year old son called the police saying that I was hitting my wife and that she was crying. My wife and I were having sex. FMLlolcats.Today, I finally had my tongue piercing heal up so I decided to try oral on my girl.

I wanted to ask : in terms of packages, does it use the classic Pacman with ArchLinux servers ?
At first I was like, "Why does he make headlines about L4D2 if there's no Linux news ?"
But then I saw the announcement of the Linux release next month :D
What's the point ?
Most open-source game developers know how to code but not to draw ?
How come I am not surprised ?
"Will Unreal Engine 4 Games Come To Linux?"
Expect it NEVARRRRR :D
Carmageddon is crap.
... Just because Steam is coming to Linux ?
Man, get real !
I hope you realize that :
This is the best opportunity for Linux to expand its user base
Linus Torvalds himself is not against proprietary software, but considers free software as extreme
Who's that guy (the one who received the mail) anyway ?
Still waiting for a video of Gaben actually saying it.
If he doesn't talk about it at the E3 (tomorrow!), then I'll stick to my words & say :
"Linux gaming news?"
Answer: yes.
Your next headline will be "nothing to be released on Linux".
... But wait, it won't be new: everybody knows no game will be released on Linux.
Michael's still trolling us : appealing title, nothing behind (who gives a sh*t about chinese tablet brands ?).
What the hell is Valve doing here ? Get it off !
I'm exepecting words from the head only.
Not from one that has already deceived us so often.
*Calls his post "Valve's Gabe Newell Talks Linux Steam Client, Source Engine"*
*Doesn't actually provide any concrete transcription of what was said*
*Pretends he had his hands on the game...
Oh, Gaben sent you a mail too.
Wow, I was about to write the very same thing o______O
Except it's been two years since Phoronix is on my AdBlock black list.
As I said on Twitter :
Pics (plus a video of Gabe Newell confirming) or it didn't happen.
You are sickening me Michael.
Your gaming news are garbage.
This isn't even news ! What is...
No Linux client guys.
I work at a game company, and we recently met with guys from Steam about integrating the Steam Workshop in a game.
And we asked whether a Linux client for Steam would be...
Maybe I'm saying something stupid but :
As the framerate seems not to change when the resolution grows, isn't it that the bottleneck would be the processor, instead of the graphics card ?

DSF Butterfly Bash
Saturday, March 28, 2015
Hyatt Regency Greenwich, CT
DSF Butterfly Bash, A Benefit for Dravet Syndrome Foundation, is our annual signature event where we raise funds for research while honoring an individual or group of professionals who have gone above and beyond in the field of Dravet syndrome and related epilepsies.
This year's Masquerade Ball-themed event includes cocktails, dinner and dancing, as well as silent and live auctions. CT photo booth and Hot House will both be joining the event again this year.
DSF is extremely excited to announce this year's gala honoree: Mrs. Susan Axelrod. When Dravet Syndrome Foundation was born, it was due in part to the example that Susan had set. In 1998, Susan was frustrated that there were not better treatments and awareness for her daughter Lauren and for all those with epilepsy. She joined forces with other parents and founded CURE (Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy). Her passion and advocacy has paved the way for expanding research into all forms of epilepsy. In addition to honoring Mrs. Axelrod; our Spirit of Hope Awardee this year it the Ried Family for their dedicated fundraising and passionate advocacy for their son Braxton and for DSF.
Tickets are $175 each and will available for purchase in early January 2015. Hotel rooms at the Hyatt Regency Greenwich are now available for a reduced rate of $85 a night (plus taxes & fees). Reservations for the block must be made online before March 6, 2015. Click hereto make your reservation.

The Boathouse at Breach Inlet, Isle of Palms, South Carolina
Isle of Palms , South Carolina
Tel: 843 886 8000
Concierge.com's insider take:
This is the best spot to watch the sunset, making it well worth a jaunt over the bay to the Isle of Palms. The cozy Boathouse feels like a comfortably sprawling beach house, with views of lush marshland, the intercoastal waterway to the west, and the Atlantic to the east. Request a table on the enormous screened-in back porch to enjoy the warm salty breezes off the water, then go upstairs to grab a pre-dinner cocktail at the roof bar. When the sun goes down, if you're still waiting for your table (and you might be even if you have a reservation), head down to the friendly dockside bar to spy boats heading back to their piers in the twilight. The mostly seafood menu is full of local favorites, simply prepared: Get the catch of the day grilled, with collards and a creamy blue cheese slaw; or the can't-miss crab cakes with grits. The same owners also serve up local seafood at the Boathouse on East Bay Street in Charleston, but the relaxed vibe of the waterfront location is a better way to wind down after a day of exploring the dunes.
Open Sundays through Thursdays 5 to 10 pm, Fridays and Saturdays, 5 to 11 pm, Sundays 11 am to 2 pm.

You just moved to the UK. Your job had moved there so if they moved you moved. You were the co- president so you had to go or you would be fired. It took you a long time to get to that rank. You were a "Undertaker" as people called you. You were alway amazed by dead person's body. You loved your job and you always had to train the newbies that just started. "________." your boss called "Yes?" you turned around gracefully. "I have this man I want you to meet for me." he handed you an address. "Alright." you said putting the address in your pocket.
~~Next Day~~
You follow the address to this building that looked haunted. The sigh on the building said "The Undertaker." you smiled in excitement. You opened the door it was quiet very quiet. You saw coffins and people organs that made you laugh. "Well, Well what do we have here?" you heard a strange voice. You saw a coffin open revealing two yellow or hazel eyes (correct me if I'm wrong plz) looking at you. "Hi. Are you...." you looked at the card. "The Undertaker?" you were confused. "Eshshshshsh. I am the Undertaker." you smiled faintly.
-I never met men named after their business.- you thought. "Well I'm...." "________." "Uh,yes." "Your boss called me yesterday. Your now my new apprentice little one." he laughed. You were in shock. -So that's why the boss wanted me to come here.- you sighed. "Do you want to?" Undertaker offered. The immediate answer was "YES!" you yelled happily. "Alright you'll start tomorrow." Undertaker smiled.
~~Next Day (Mehhhh)~~
You hurry down the streets to The Undertaker building was. You opened the door. Undertaker was already looking at a body. "__________ come look at this body ,darling." you went to Undertaker's side. You saw a maimed body in front of you. It had bullet wounds, swords the whole nine yard of being beaten. "Wow! This is amazing I mean look at the body so beaten and burned you can't really see the person's face." you smiled. -Wow, she's more amazed than I am with the body. Eshshshsh I'm beginning to like this girl now- Undertaker laughed.
He saw your eyes sparkled with amazement it was too cute for him. "Want to see others?" You nodded yes quickly. He open another coffin and there was a man with Red hair and he wore like this weird bartender outfit with a red jacket. "Well this is no fun not one scar and it's disgusting." (I was watching Black Butler when i was typing this XD) The person woke up. He grabbed Undertaker's throat "Who are you calling disgusting?!?" he yelled. "G-Grell it's you Eshshshsh What are you doing here." Grell was pissed. "I was just enjoying a nap that's all." Grell got out of the coffin.
Grell turned around and saw you "And who is this Beauty?" Grell circle around you. "Now,now she my helper." Undertaker laughed. "I still need her in one piece." you smiled faintly. -What does he mean by "Still" and "One Piece"- you thought he was going to kill you. Grell and Undertaker started to argue and you kept inching to the door not wanting to be killed. When you got to the Undertaker saw you. "Where are you going?" "No where." you looked at the ceiling. "Now,Now it's alright I'm not going to hurt you darling." Undertaker walked over to you and brushed the hair out of your eyes. He looked at your eyes they were a glowing (E/C).
~~A few months later~~
You had gotten use to London and your new job. You started to fall in love with Undertaker more and more. He always loved your jokes and when you piss Grell off. But the whole "I want her in one piece" thing still scared you a little. You were washing your hands from the latest in bombed body you did with Undertaker. You saw he was holding a fake human that had the organs and where blood vessel were. You walked over to him. He seemed sad to you. "Are you okay?" You hugged him. Undertaker looked at you smiled.
"I'm okay nothing to worry about." Undertaker laughed. You took the fake person and sat in Undertaker's lap. He hugged you and you heard he was humming softly London Bridge to you. You saw your vision blur than you feel asleep. When you woke you were in a coffin but the top wasn't on it. You almost thought he buried you alive. You looked around to find him and you saw he was talking to another client of his.
When they left he saw that you woke. He walked over to you and sat next to you. "How long was I asleep?" you yawned. "Oh, about 2 hours." you thought you slept longer than that. "Okay." you shrugged. You went straight back to work with him. He had taught you the old ways of bombing a person's body and they actually worked really good. You bombed about 5 or 6 bodies today. You were about to leave till Undertaker went behind you. "Stay." He hugged you. You didn't really want to but you did love him. You took a deep breath "Okay." you sat your stuff down.
Undertaker took and cradle you in his arm rocking you in a sweet rhythm. He was humming another song you didn't know but it was putting you asleep.
~~The next morning~~
You woke up in a coffin with Undertaker by your side. He had his arm wrapped around you. You rubbed your eyes and got up. Undertaker popped up open his eye seeing you got up. You stretched as high as you can than scratched your head. "Good Morning." you turned to see him awake. -When did he?- you thought he was still asleep.
The day went the same like any other.
~~That Night~~
Undertaker told you to go to his carriage. You felt it move but didn't see him. You looked out of the window. "Undertaker?" "Go back in the carriage I'm going to take you somewhere." you knew it was a surprise. When the carriage stopped Undertaker open the door. "Come here I want you to see this." He grabbed your hand. He brang you to the driver's seat and you two watch the sun set. "Was that..." you got cut off by a firework.
Your eyes glowed at the site. -I knew she would like this- Undertaker thought. He wrapped his arm around _________. You looked at the Undertaker not minding him. "_________." "Yes?" Undertaker pulled out a small box.
"Will you Marry me?" The ring had a skull on it that made you giggle.
Though your answer was "YES!" you hugged the undertaker with the fireworks still going off.

I will be working on all of my series until they are completely finished so no need to worry! Now to those who are new to reading my stories, this is completely fan based. There is NO yaoi or yuri in it and this new story will not be part of the same storyline as the anime or manga but it will have the same character and feel to it as the original (hopefully). The story will be told in third person meaning he, she, and they by all the character, Kaname, Kain, Aido, Ichijo, Shiki and so on. The new character I'm adding to the story is my own and the storyline is mine as well. If you have any questions, please NOTE me.Thank you for your time.P.S. If you see any mistakes in my spelling, please NOTE me so I can fix them. I want readers to be able to read each chapter smoothly in

Guest post from Danielle McGaw of the Social Freelance Writer
I've always been very pro-blogging. I think that when blogging is done right it can be beneficial for any career. Notice that I said when it is done right – because there is a wrong way to blog if you want to be taken seriously. If you don't have a plan, your blog is more likely to prevent you from getting clients than it is to help.
If you are not getting clients from your blog, ask yourself if any of these things apply:
1. Your blog has no identifiable theme or purpose. You have 100 categories and none of them are really connected in anyway. Someone who visits your blog one day might think it is a mom blog while someone that stops at your blog a week later might think it is a blog about homeschooling. Stop by in a few more days and it might appear to be a blog about blogging. Find a central theme and focus on it. That way, when potential clients find your blog they will see that you are able to concentrate on a topic for more than a day at a time.
2. You talk about your kids all the time. Now, if you have kids, you're bound to talk about them once in awhile but if you talk about them all the time, clients are going to just see you as a "work at home mom" – not a professional freelance writer. If all they see on your blog is that the baby has the mumps and the older children are taking up all your time with sports activities, they are likely to believe that the work that they might potentially assign you will fit in between the kids. This might be true but clients don't want to believe that. They want to believe that they come first.
3. Your blog is pink and lime green. If you love these colors, that is fine – wear them or design rooms in your house around them, but don't make them the prime colors on your blog! Use bright colors for accents if you want to but keep the main colors easy to look at and subtle. A blog with a pink background and lime green polka dots will never be seen as a serious business blog and you will not be seen as a serious business person.
4. Your blog is filled with ads for pay-per-click programs and lures to "get a free iPod". Advertising on a blog can be expected from most sites these days but keep it subtle and keep it professional. If you use Google Adsense on your blog, make it match your theme so that it is not so obvious. If you have products that you promote, make sure that they are products you can be stand behind. At the very least, try to keep all ads below the fold (in other words, people have to scroll down before they see them).
5. You have no contact form. How do you expect people to be able to contact you if you don't make it easy for them? If you use WordPress there are many plugins that you can use. My favourite is Contact-7.
6. You are boring. You're writing the same stuff that everyone else is writing about and there is nothing original to read. You don't have to write 1000 word posts every time to be unique but you do have to put some thought into it.
7. Your blog is slow to load. You can't expect potential clients to stick around long enough to get a feel for your writing skills if it takes more than a few seconds for pages to load. Too many plugins or outdated software can slow your blog down. So can graphics that are too big or incorrect code. If your blog is running slow, start by changing your theme. If that doesn't work, deactivate each plug in one by one. If you are still having problems and you don't know how to examine the code, you might have to hire someone to do some trouble shooting for you.
8. Your navigation is lacking. If potential clients cannot find what they are looking for – a resume, a contact page, an About Me page – they won't stick around for long.
9. Automatic audio or video. There's nothing that will send someone away from your page faster than an audio or video file that plays as soon as they get on the site. Set audio and video files to play on demand, not automatically.
10. Poorly written text. This one shouldn't need to be said if you are a writer but I can't tell you how many writer's blogs and web sites I've looked at that appear to have been written by a third grader. Treat each blog post as if it is going to be read by your next big client – because it might be.
A very helpful list of tips for both new bloggers and those wanting to 'reboot' things–thanks, Danielle!
DanaB´s last blog post ..From Fantasy to Parenting: Bold New Reads
Thanks Dana! A Reboot is always a great idea from time to time.
Great post, Danielle! I was guilty of reason #1 on my old blog – it was all over the place! I also like to talk about my kids a lot, so I'll keep that in mind.
Missy´s last blog post ..Top 10 Distractions for Freelance Writers
The one exception I would make to talking about your kids is if your want to specialize and be known as a mom blogger. There is still a niche for this, too. But otherwise, I keep talking about my kids to a minimum.
Danielle McGaw´s last blog post ..Increase Your Efficiency with These 8 Tips for Using LinkedIn
Thanks for the tips Danielle! I'll be going through these and reviewing my blogs and sites to see where I can make improvements.
Your welcome Page. I look at my blogs every few months and make changes as needed.
Danielle McGaw´s last blog post ..Increase Your Efficiency with These 8 Tips for Using LinkedIn
Came over from your Twitter feed and these are great tips. I often worry if someone comes over to read my emotional posts that they won't also see that I write humor, too.
Sherri´s last blog post ..Voices Unseen
Hi Sherri. Glad you find them helpful. Emotional posts can be good, too – they show your passion. As long as they aren't irrationally emotional, you know?
Danielle McGaw´s last blog post ..Increase Your Efficiency with These 8 Tips for Using LinkedIn
Very nice! Thanks for all the tips.
Thanks Crystal. Glad you liked it.
Danielle McGaw´s last blog post ..Don't Forget To Check Out These Guest Posts
I've been thinking about a redesign of my blog – always wonder if it's too loud to be professional.
Kristi Hines´s last blog post ..Why I Am Attending Blog World Expo 2011 Plus a 20% Off Discount Code
Your site is colorful Kristi – not really loud. Although I've always been curious about what those curly plastic things are with all the ridges in them. I'm not sure if you want to know what they remind me of.
Danielle McGaw´s last blog post ..Don't Forget To Check Out These Guest Posts
Just changed it to solid blue after reading this and a few other sites that talked about color and perception, but those were a closeup of a Chihuly Glass display that was here in Phoenix a few years ago.
Kristi Hines´s last blog post ..Measuring Social Media ROI and Goal Conversions with Google Analytics 5
Probably the only one I'd slightly disagree with, very slightly, is the contact form. I have an email address on all blogs that people can use to contact me. I'd rather it that way than using a contact form; I also don't have contact forms on any of my websites.
Mitch Mitchell´s last blog post ..Why Is Everyone Busting On A-Listers?
I know that leaving your email is an option, but I've always preferred contact forms when I want to contact a blogger because I don't have to remember the email or copy and paste and then go to my email and type it in. I'm kind of lazy that way.
Great points Danielle – although, as a creative you could totally go pink and lime green and still be taken seriously as a business person. It's all in how you put it together and what industry you're in – I've seen a blog with a shocking pink background and the designer who runs it has an impressive community and full client list
It DOES have to be simple if very colourful, to stand out and have easy navigation and not everyone is or wants to be seen as a serious business person so this tip isn't right for everyone. The other 9 are spot on though!
Kristi – your blog looks really fresh and pleasing to the eye. Why would you want to tone it down to fit some stereotype of what professional means? That's the whole point of branding, being different and uniquely you! You've got great presence, a loyal readership and I LOVE the sunflower and colours! Shine, girl, shine. Your personality and brand are interrelated.
Tia Sparkles Singh´s last blog post ..YLYW Interview # 11: Joel Runyon Does The Impossible
OOps … I guess you meant this post to be just for writers-with-blogs-who-want-to-be-taken-seriously. In which case, I should clarify and retract: my comment is directed to all creatives, not just writers
Tia Sparkles Singh´s last blog post ..YLYW Interview # 11: Joel Runyon Does The Impossible
I figured out what you meant Tia. And I do agree that design does depend who your market is. For instance, even as a writer, you could have a blog about children and often implement stories about your kids (as long as it had a point) and have a very child themed design with greens and blues and pinks. And that would work because it is targeted towards a specific group of people and clients would understand that.

Thanks for the tips! I click out immediately if I get blasted with a lot of flash or music. What is the hosts preference may not be that of the masses and that is where you want to reach ultimately:)
Nice post, it is very important to have a professional looking blog if you want to work as a freelance writer because if it doesn't look professional then people who are seeking to hire you as a freelance writer might think that you are just a kid who hopes to make some money and not a professional freelance writer, thanks for sharing.
Kostas´s last blog post ..Tips For Becoming a Freelance Writer
Kostas, totally agree, many freelancers wanted to make big money online, but won't spend a couple hundred dollars on putting together a professional looking website. They say oh I'll invest in my site once I make the money, but the challenge is now a days when clients are determining whether or not to work with you. They simply type in your name and see what pops up. And if you have a free site or worse off no site at all, they will quickly pass judgment and move on to another freelancer.

Need help with charging system for battery powered Gainclone
I just picked up 4 12v 7mA/h for $7 each at Tanner's in Dallas (heck of a bargain but he doesn't ship). I have always wanted to cobble together a battery powered gainclone but one thing has stumped me. I want to build it where when I throw one switch it turns off the amp and starts charging the batteries. Has anyone seen something like this built and know where I might find a wiring diagram on how this might be achieved? I have a few ideas but it requires a few switches to get the job done. I bought a nice little floating trickle charger I thought I might be able to use for this. Please let me know if you've seen this done or have any good ideas on how to make the charging system work like I've described. Thanks, Jeff |

yes, i did make a similar design.
I used a premade battery charger with overcharge protection. I used a set of relays to connect the batteries when the amp is off in paralell, then to the charger, and turn the charger on. When the amp was on, the charger got disconnected from the batteries, and the batteries have been connected in series to get the voltage i need. Last relay got connected to the series connect batteries, this turned on the amplifier it self. It would only turn it on if there was at least 24 volts of total supply voltage. |

I've used a CTEK 3300 smart charger (lead acid batteries, sealed LA, Absorbed Glass Matt LA) with a 12V chip amp (TA2024) and lead-acid battery for a while. The CTEK is a bit expensive (around $60~80) but works very well, even with it in-circuit the amp sounds fine. I had planned to use it just for test purposes so didn't bother switching it in/out, but was pleasantly surprised at how well it worked. Ripple on the 3300 is spec'd at > 100 mV. Made in Sweden.
http://smartercharger.com/ A simple off (no power) /standby (charge) /on (battery only) switch would not be too tough to figure out.

What is "Worst Night To Grow A Pair"!?
"Worst Night to Grow a Pair" is a love story... between a man and his bar. After months of searching for a replacement for the ultimate dive bar 'The Jungle Room', Rex decides to reclaim his favorite watering hole only to find his ex-girlfriend- Becks, and her bachelorette party of slizzards raising hell. If that isn't enough to derail Rex's plans, ousted comedian- Rambis, arrives to unveil his newest material. What the 'Jungle Room' patrons don't realize is that Rambis is not only unfunny, but violently unstable and determined to perform his set at any cost aided by his savage, nut-bag manager- Mandrell. When a hostage situation overtakes the bar it is up to Rex to protect his one true love, 'The Jungle Room'.
Who are we?
Ty Huffer and Matthew Burtner (aka Big Vis) have been making films together since 2004. Ty began at the tender age of 19 with his first short, "Boogie Man", a Hi-8 homage to talentless break-dancers. Already friends, the first major collaboration between Huffer and Burtner was on Matt's no-budget feature film, "Off Camera". The pair have since collaborated on over a dozen additional shorts and the award-winning, no-budget feature, "Bite Size", an 82 minute dark comedy about a man tormented by a talking shark living in his hot tub. Their music video "Looks of LA" won both the audience and jury awards at the 2010 Seattle True Independent Film Festival. Their most recent short, "Ego Boost" won the 2011 Seattle International Film Festival Three-Minute Masterpiece contest. They are ready to take their brand of storytelling to the next level. The level with a budget.
Will Chase has been making films happen in Seattle for years now. He is all about taking a Directors vision and making it a reality. In the last four years, Will has produced or production managed over 14 projects, including Feature Films, Shorts, Commercials, Industrial Educational Videos, and Music Videos. This will be his first film as consulting producer, and he is ready to "jib it up" with Frankenhuffer Productions. Will's other current project is MemeBlastMedia.com Check it. Then check and like their FB page.
What are those past videos we've done?
"Ego Boost" won the grand prize at the 2011 SIFF 3 Minute Masterpiece competition.
"Looks of L.A." won the audience and jury awards at the 2010 STIFF music video challenge.
Do you really need $15,000.00?
Yes. $15,000.00 is a LOT of money but it's the bare minimum for getting this production off the ground. We've dipped into our no-budget bag of tricks to get the budget as low as it is. There's just some things we can't cut corners on:
- We will be shooting on location at an unbelievably ideal bar but we have to rent it.
- While we have generous friends willing to lend and some of our own, a production of this size will require some equipment rentals. You know little things like lights, a camera with professional lenses, c-stands, flags, sandbags, etc.
- We'll have a large cast and a full crew that will be working long days. They're going to get hungry.
- Speaking of the cast and crew, we'll be working with professionals and professionals get paid for their work. Look at that, we're creating jobs!
- Set insurance... Better safe than sorry.
- This is a dark, violent movie. We need the blood to look real and special effects ain't cheap.
Thank you so much for supporting our Kickstarter! We greatly appreciate all the help you can give us; whether it's money or spreading the word, it all adds up! Cheers!

Ok this might be a little dumb. But I'm going to ask because I have always wondered. I know that Kim is from the Dutch speaking part of Belgium, and Justine from the French speaking. But does Juju know Dutch as well, or just the French? And what is the official language of Belgium? :confused: I've just always been curious I know there are different names for those who speak Dutch and French. :)

AARP, AMA give House healthcare bill an 11th-hour boost
The AARP and AMA endorsed the House healthcare bill Thursday. But there are caveats, and some Democrats remain concerned about cost and abortion provisions.
Harry Hamburg/AP
Just 48 hours before a historic healthcare vote, Senate Democrats racked up big endorsements – and needed momentum – from the doctors and the nation's leading seniors' lobby.
The American Medical Association (AMA) and Association for the Advancement of Retired People (AARP) announced their support for the bill Wednesday.
"We are closer to passing this reform than ever before," said President Obama, after the announcements. "And now that the doctors and medical professionals of America are standing with us; now that the organizations charged with looking out for the interests of seniors are standing with us, we are even closer."
The AARP board of directors committed the clout of its nearly 40 million-member lobby to the 11th hour fight, including an ad campaign and mobilization of some 5 million activists.
"Beginning today, we will energize all of our resources for passage of the House plan," said AARP board chair Bonnie Cramer at a mid-day Washington press briefing.
But support of the American Medical Association, announced minutes later, came with a price: that the House also commit to passing a 10-year "fix" to roll back mandated cuts in payments to physicians who serve Medicare patients.

DEFINITION of 'Yearly Probability Of Living '
A numerical figure that depicts the likelihood of someone living per year. The yearly probability of living is determined by looking at a mortality table which shows the rate of death at each age in terms of the number of deaths per thousand. The data in the chart is determined by dividing the number of people alive at the end of a given year by the number of people alive at the beginning of that same year.
