This is the Open Forum Coffee Talk. That means ... anything goes. Ask a question, make a suggestion, share a story, offer some advice -- the floor is yours!
I wanted to pass along 2 wonderful upcoming opportunities for Pilgrimages in Honor of the Mother of God. The ANNUAL PILGRIMAGE TO THE SHRINE OF MARIAPOCH: Sat., Aug. 10 – Sun., Aug. 11 in Burton, OH, across the street from Christ the Bridegroom Monastery (optional teen camp-out on Fri., Aug. 9 to help set up for the Pilgrimage): http://www.mariapoch.org/. Among Carpatho-Rusyn Christians, the Weeping Icon of Marijapovch is revered because it stands for believers as a witness to the protection & intercession of the Most Holy Mother of God. The icon itself comes from & expresses the life of the Church in Eastern Europe. Its rich history reflects a deeply rooted faith in God & a trusting devotion to the Mother of God. The 79TH ANNUAL PILGRIMAGE IN HONOR OF OUR LADY OF PERPETUAL HELP at Mount St. Macrina Monastery in Uniontown, PA: Sat., Aug. 31 – Sun., Sept. 1 (camping available on monastery grounds). The theme for the 2013 Pilgrimage is "Theotokos: Steadfast Foundation of Faith" -- http://www.sistersofstbasil.org/events-2/annual-pilgrimage-honoring-our-lady-of-perpetual-help/. The weekend includes many opportunities for participation in the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, Matins, Vespers, Akathists, Sacrament of Reconciliation, healing & anointing services, processions, children's activities, & other services in honor of the Mother of God. Pilgrims find solace in walking the beautiful grounds of Mt. St. Macrina & visiting the many shrines. Participants include many clergy (bishops, monks, priests, deacons), seminarians, sisters, & faithful from across the country. The event concludes with a Hierarchical Divine Liturgy with the Metropoltian Archbishop & is the oldest & the largest Byzantine Catholic Pilgrimage in the US.
Hi Jeanne in FL! The Shrine of Mariapoch is not affiliated with a Basilica; it is affiliated with Christ the Bridegroom Monastery, a traditional Byzantine women's monastic community. PA has both interstate & turnpike (& a new toll road that takes you almost all the way to Uniontown). Mt. St. Macrina is affiliated with the Sisters of St. Basil the Great, a Byzantine women's religious community. I think its great to have a shrine built so close to a tourist spot like Disney...hopefully the secular will draw tourists to the spiritual. My midwife said that the Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche in FL was beautiful.
Contrary to your report, I do no think there are comprehensive assetss that should be exhibited by essay writing service. I assume that the author you decide should be specifically wired to present the best essay for the manual. Some correlations are worthy at literal contents additionally dire at freshs.

Offense clicking, Twins eye series win vs. Red Sox
Boston looks for Lackey to provide length after bullpen roughed up
All season long, offense has eluded the Twins -- then they hung 15 runs on the Red Sox on Wednesday night.
When the two clubs meet again in the finale of a four-game set on Thursday, Minnesota will be hoping it didn't use up too much of its pop in one night.
The suddenly revived Twins offense faces John Lackey, who will be making his third start since he returned from the disabled list. Lackey threw 98 pitches in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Rangers, a big jump from the 81 he had thrown in his previous outing, which was his first since sustaining a right biceps injury.
"I got my pitch count up, so hopefully next start will be pretty much normal," Lackey said. "It's not all the way there, but a few more starts. I like where it's heading."
If there was ever a time for Lackey to work deep into a ballgame, the Sox are hoping it's Thursday. Allen Webster lasted just 1 2/3 innings on Wednesday, and although Felix Doubront cleaned up most of the bullpen mess by going 5 1/3 frames, Boston could really use some length.
Opposite Lackey will be Minnesota right-hander Kevin Correia, who has been arguably the club's most consistent starter this season. However, Correia is coming off his worst outing of the year in Cleveland, where he allowed four runs during five frames in a 7-3 loss to the Indians on Saturday. It marked the first time this season he did not finish the seventh inning.
"I just didn't have command of my pitches like I did in my last couple starts," said Correia, who fell to 3-2 with a 2.83 ERA. "I fell behind guys, and they took advantage."
Correia will have to contend with Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz, who has been one of the league's hottest hitters all year. Ortiz had a 27-game hitting streak -- tied for the sixth longest in Boston franchise history -- snapped on Wednesday with an 0-for-5, two-strikeout night.
Minnesota will be looking to take three of four at Fenway Park for the second consecutive season.
Twins: Carroll a veteran presence
Minnesota infielder Jamey Carroll has seen his playing time decrease this season, but it hasn't altered the way he plays the game.
"He just goes out there and gets it done," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "He handles the bat very well. He's very competitive, so it's nice to move him around."
Carroll, a 12-year veteran, started at shortstop on Wednesday for the first time this season. He went 1-for-5 with two runs scored and is now hitting .263.
Red Sox: Ross, Middlebrooks recovering
Catcher David Ross and third baseman Will Middlebrooks are still feeling the effects of a collision in foul territory Tuesday night. Their status is in doubt for Thursday's series finale.
Ross (left quad contusion) is hopeful he'll be back in the lineup by the weekend. The club is still waiting on MRI results on Middlebrooks' injury.
"Will has got some soreness on the right side of the ribcage," manager John Farrell said. "He just did get an MRI this afternoon. We don't have the results of that back yet. We do know through the imaging and the tests last night there was no fractures of any kind, so that's checked out. He's sore. He's day to day."
Worth noting
• Twins catcher Joe Mauer is hitting .435 with a pair of homers in his career against Lackey.
• Mauer is one double shying of tying Torii Hunter for sixth all-time in franchise history at 259. First baseman Justin Morneau is fifth at 264.
• In 14 career at-bats against Correia, Red Sox outfielder Shane Victorino has notched six hits -- including one home run.
• The Twins haven't won a season series against the Red Sox since 2006. The two clubs will meet three more times this season after Thursday's game.

OP/TECH USA responds:
It does depend on your hand size as to how the E-Z Grip Strap will fit. I would suggest trying either the Gotcha Wrist Strap or the Grip Strap for a more secure fit. The Gotcha Wrist Strap can be tightened around your wrist and secured with the hook-and-loop closures. The Grip Strap wraps completely around your hand. (posted on 3/29/12)

Anibal Sanchez struck out 12 in his third career one-hitter. / Rick Osentoski, USA TODAY Sports
DETROIT - Last Saturday night in Texas, Anibal Sanchez gave up a hit to the first batter he faced, Elvis Andrus. He gave up eight more hits while getting only eight outs. Manager Jim Leyland lifted him with two outs in the third.
"Sanchy just didn't have it tonight," Leyland said.
On Friday night, Sanchy had it.
The Detroit Tigers right-hander had a no-hitter until Joe Mauer - who has the highest lifetime batting average of any active player - lined a single with one out in the ninth. Sanchez finished with a complete-game one-hitter. He beat the Minnesota Twins 6-0 in front of 39,789 roaring fans at Comerica Park.
It is Sanchez's fourth complete-game one-hitter. That is the most among active pitchers, according to Baseball-Reference.com.
Sanchez's no-hit bid was ended cleanly by the strongest candidate in the Minnesota lineup - maybe any lineup - to end a no-hitter. On a 1-1 pitch, Mauer lined a single to center.
The episode showed why Mauer has won three AL batting titles and why he has a .324 career average (one point ahead of Albert Pujols for best among active players). The left-handed hitter stayed calm in a moment full of noise and pressure. He waited on the off-speed pitch and drilled it. As usual, Mauer wasn't caught off-balance.
"You know what?" Leyland said. "When you pitch a one-hitter and the one hit you give up is to a guy who has three batting titles and is a great hitter - one of the best in baseball and has been for a long time - that's a hell of a performance. He was terrific."
It marked the third time Mauer has broken up a no-hitter with one out in the ninth with the Twins' only hit of the game. He did so against the Chicago White Sox's Gavin Floyd in 2008 and against the Texas bullpen in a combined no-hit bid by the Rangers in 2010.
"He threw a good cutter, but I think it caught a little too much of the plate so I was able to square it up," Mauer said. "That was about the only thing I could do tonight. He was pretty tough."
Mauer's single, on an 80-mph pitch that was dropping through the strike zone, carried well over the head of Sanchez, who seemed to briefly wave his arms in frustration before he otherwise methodically got back to work. He struck out the final two hitters to end the game.
Mauer, hitting in the second spot, had hit into a forceout and struck out twice the previous three times up. He saved historical indignity for his club, which nevertheless lost its 10th straight.
"Any time I go up there I try to get a hit, get on base, do something on the offensive side," Mauer said. "Got one hit, it doesn't take away from what he did out there tonight. Sanchez was great and we still lost."
Sanchez struck out 12 and walked three (including Jamey Carroll to start the game - there was never a perfect-game bid). Sanchez fanned Carroll looking to start the ninth. The ninth was the second time in the game he struck out the side.
Until Mauer in the ninth, the Twins' two best bids for a hit went in the direction of shortstop Jhonny Peralta. Brian Dozier sent a slow roller his way to lead off the sixth. Peralta fielded it on the run and threw a strike to first to get Dozier on a close play.
With one out in the eighth, Justin Morneau ripped a liner toward center. Peralta moved to his left and gloved the drive standing up.
Sanchez performed the increasingly difficult feat of upstaging Miguel Cabrera. In the third inning, Cabrera drilled a two-run single to give the Tigers a 3-0 lead. It marked Cabrera's fifth straight game with at least two runs. He has 57 RBI, a staggering total for Memorial Day weekend.
Sanchez nearly threw the eighth no-hitter in Tigers history. It would have been the first by someone besides Justin Verlander (who has two) since Jack Morris in 1984.
And Sanchez nearly matched Verlander with two career no-hitters. He threw one as a rookie for the Florida Marlins against the Arizona Diamondbacks in September 2006. (On a Friday night at Comerica in May last year, Verlander lost a no-hitter against Pittsburgh with one out in the ninth.)
Sanchez on Friday night at Comerica has become historical entertainment. The last time he pitched at home on Friday night, he struck out 17 against Atlanta to break Mickey Lolich's club record of 16.
Talk about Friday night fireworks.

Rays look to clinch Wild Card spot against Blue Jays
Hellickson faces Dickey to open final series of season
Two consecutive sweeps over American League East opponents have put the Rays in the driver's seat in the AL Wild Card race. Now one more series against a division opponent is all that stands between them and the postseason.
The Rays open a three-game set against the Blue Jays on Friday night at Rogers Centre carrying a one-game lead over the Indians for the top Wild Card spot and a two-game edge over the Rangers for the second berth. Tampa Bay comes in having won seven straight after blanking both the Orioles and Yankees, and can clinch a Wild Card berth with a victory over the Blue Jays on Friday, coupled with a Rangers loss to the Angels.
To continue that run, the Rays could use a rebound performance from Jeremy Hellickson (12-9, 5.16 ERA). The right-hander owns a 7.75 ERA over his past nine starts, averaging 4 1/3 innings per outing while surrendering a .338 average and eight homers. The Rangers touched him up for five runs in only 2 2/3 innings in his last start, on Sept. 17.
"I haven't been throwing like I'm capable of throwing," Hellickson said. "So I'm glad they're still running me out there. I haven't been able to make the big pitch when I've needed to, and it's cost me."
Hellickson did make an important contribution to the Rays' playoff push last Friday -- or technically, early Saturday morning -- when he tossed 2 1/3 scoreless innings to pick up the win in Tampa Bay's 18-inning triumph over the Orioles. He gave up one hit and struck out two.
Meanwhile, R.A. Dickey (13-13, 4.27) is set to close out a disappointing first season in Toronto. Last year's National League Cy Young Award winner hasn't exactly flourished in his new home, posting a 4.95 ERA and serving up 21 home runs in 17 starts at Rogers Centre. His 33 homers overall put him second in the Majors, and also in Blue Jays history, behind only Woody Williams' 36 in 1998.
The long ball plagued Dickey again last Sunday at Fenway Park. He tossed an eight-inning complete game, giving up six hits and one walk while striking out a season-high 11. But two homers helped the Red Sox plate five and win the game.
"I threw maybe two or three that I really regret and two of them got hit out," Dickey said. "It was a really bizarre way to lose a baseball game. I had a good knuckleball, I've had a good knuckleball for quite some time and I expected better from what I felt and what I saw the ball doing."
On the other hand, Dickey has done just fine against the Rays. In five starts, he has a 3.00 ERA and a .189 opponents' average.
Rays: Still no debut for Crain
Jesse Crain warmed up during Monday's game against the Orioles but never came in from the bullpen, and the right-hander still is looking to throw his first pitch in a Rays uniform. Crain, acquired from the White Sox on July 29, has been unavailable since Monday, as he continues to have some issues with the shoulder that had put him on the 60-day disabled list.
"It's just been kind of a day-to-day thing," manager Joe Maddon said. "Some days he's felt a little better than others, but nothing's been horrid. It's just not quite there yet."
• Center fielder Desmond Jennings missed his fourth consecutive start on Thursday with a strained left hamstring.
Blue Jays: Langerhans bolsters depth
Toronto purchased the contract of Ryan Langerhans from Triple-A Buffalo on Thursday and started him at first base in their series finale at Baltimore. Langerhans, who played for Buffalo earlier this season, had just finished a stint with the independent Sugarland Skeeters, making him more game-ready than some of the Blue Jays' other options.
The club needed an extra player with outfielder Rajai Davis leaving to attend the birth of his first child and first baseman Adam Lind battling a sore back. Langerhans has been primarily an outfielder over 10 big league seasons, but he stepped in for Lind on Thursday and went 0-for-4.
Lind was optimistic that he will return to the lineup on Friday or Saturday.
• Outfielder Moises Sierra returned on Thursday after missing one game with a sprained ankle. He went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts.
Worth noting
• The Blue Jays are 2-5 so far on their seven-game road trip.
• Hellickson has a 2.90 ERA in five starts against Toronto this season, including a 2.77 mark in two games at Rogers Centre.

Revision as of 13:35, 1 February 2013
In memory of hacktivist Aaron Swartz, there will be a series of hackathons around the world in Jan.-Feb., 2013 dedicated to understanding Aaron's work and keeping his projects alive. This page is intended as a record of what was done at each of these hackathons. If you'd like to suggest project ideas or help organize stuff, see the coordination spreadsheet. You can contact the main coordinator for the worldwide effort via email.
In order to provide some online continuity between events please feel free to use the #aaronsw IRC channel, and the #aaronsw tag.

We, at Lamba Labs, are joining the global hackerspace community with a memorial hack-a-thon and build night, in memory of Aaron Swartz. In order to answer Swartz's call for social change, we're humbly hosting a build night focused on projects that are geared towards social change in Lebanon, such as: creating a website for the country's Anti-Racism project, visualizing election data to prevent corruption, creating a low-power device for emergency broadcasting of location, creating artwork for public street installations to nurture public awareness…
Everyone's welcome to join and collaborate on existing projects or work on their own projects.

Here is a link to the playlist containing three videos from the Aaron Swartz Memorial Hacknight: http://hasgeek.tv/hasgeek/aaronsw-hacknight.
According to Kiran:
- We had a discussion for nearly two hours on Aaron's life and work and it's relevance in India. We recorded the whole talk on video and will process that soon (need to confirm the audio is decent since we didn't use a mike and speakers). http://hacknight.in/hasgeek/aaronsw-memorial/projects/1-what-did-aaron-do
- Anand Chitipothu followed up with an hour-long Web.py workshop. http://hacknight.in/hasgeek/aaronsw-memorial/projects/4-web-py-workshop
- He's now working on making Web.py's SQL module standalone. http://hacknight.in/hasgeek/aaronsw-memorial/projects/2-sql-py-web-db-as-a-separate-package
- Arun Raghavan and company have had success with extracting electoral data from PDF files to make it searchable. They're retired for the night and will resume tomorrow to fix issues with long names that wrap awkardly in the PDF file and confuse their parser. http://hacknight.in/hasgeek/aaronsw-memorial/projects/7-liberate-electoral-data
- Anand also had some data to be processed that he's got a few enthusiasts helping him with. http://hacknight.in/hasgeek/aaronsw-memorial/projects/5-liberate-some-public-data
- Shubhanshu Mishra's legal project had no takers, so he's left for the night. http://hacknight.in/hasgeek/aaronsw-memorial/projects/6-online-legal-help

A full gathering of hackers and data liberationists stayed through the night at Fabelier coding and organizing. Much energy coalesced around a controversial agreement between the national library and private corporations concerning book scanning, where the companies gain limited exclusive rights to the content scanned.
A Google Doc was used to organize thoughts and research: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LZ9PuJ-FeSBgrRWyTB3MXVjbVYQn4ztyLj1-GazKhBc/edit#heading=h.jvd48x78h9qc

Super Happy Hacker House is a regular hack/socializing/lightning talks event at Vancouver Hack Space. We renamed it Super Sad Hacker House for this evening. There was a large portrait of Aaron added to the space for the day. I (Neil K) opened the lightning talks with a brief presentation on AaronSw and we had a moment of silence. I don't know of any hacking project that anyone's working on in Aaron's memory specifically.

Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Filler
This is a good option if you're looking for a standard moisturizer with retinol.
Retinol Correxion Sensitive Eye Cream
This eye cream ends up being a one-note song because while retinol is a great ingredient for skin, it is not the only one.
Add to Faves?
RoC At-A-Glance
Strengths: Some well-packaged products with retinol; all the sunscreens provide sufficient UVA protection.
Weaknesses: Mediocrity reigns supreme—few of the formulas are particularly exciting; antiwrinkle claims tend to go too far; jar packaging.
Originally the brainchild of a French pharmacist, RoC does its best to convince women concerned with wrinkles that using RoC products will erase those pesky lines and, of course, that RoC is the only company that keeps its promises. That doesn't bode well for the other J&J product lines Aveeno and Neutrogena—wouldn't that mean they must be lying about the promises they make for their products? Regardless, the promises RoC makes, including all of the same old same old "you will look younger too" rubbish, aren't viable and don't hold up under closer scrutiny. None of what they assure you their products can do is possible beyond a cosmetic extent, and moreover the majority of RoC's U.S.- and Canada-sold formulas are either boring or one-note. They don't even come through with distinctive or interesting moisturizers.
For example, RoC is big on retinol, and includes it in products with and without sunscreen in the United States. Retinol is a cell-communicating ingredient as well as an antioxidant, and its benefits for skin are many (Sources: Archives of Dermatology, May 2007, pages 606–612; Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, March/April 2005, pages 81–87; and Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, December 2005, pages 237–244). However, for the most part, the amount of retinol in RoC's U.S.-sold products is barely a dusting, and so your skin won't receive much, if any, benefit from it. Ironically, although RoC promotes retinol much more than Neutrogena and Aveeno (all are J&J-owned companies), the latter two lines sell better retinol products! Several of the moisturizers with retinol sold by RoC in Canada also have much better formulations.
Another ingredient RoC has been touting lately is DMAE (dimethyl MEA). This ingredient is described in detail in the reviews below, but suffice it to say that DMAE isn't a panacea for wrinkles or skin that has lost firmness. Lastly, soy is promoted by RoC as an anti-aging powerhouse. Soy has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits for skin, but once again RoC shortchanges the consumer by including barely any of it. And it's probably no surprise that sister company Aveeno (and, to a lesser extent, Neutrogena) offers better (and less expensive) options if soy is what you want to try.
Taken together, isn't it interesting how all of these Johnson & Johnson brands offer similar products to different target audiences? Neutrogena is the all-encompassing line, going after consumers battling acne and wrinkles; Aveeno stresses its "Active Naturals" and plays on its oat heritage; RoC is made to appeal to consumers who want to take a serious, more clinical-minded approach to fighting the signs of aging. None of these lines have all the answers, but all of them have a few worthwhile products. It's just that with RoC, those looking for state-of-the-art options beyond retinol have the fewest choices—and that's a promise made clear by the reviews that follow!
For more information about RoC, call (800) 762-1964 or visit www.rocskincare.com. And for a better selection of state-of-the-art retinol products from RoC, see the reviews for RoC Canada.

I totally agree with everything you said, the work and time definitely takes its toll hehe. I mean there is alot more to think about when building a project such as a complex open source game, like a website which a nice one takes some time, the integrity of the group. I believe that even if you only have 2-3 hours a day or a little less to do some work, I still think you can still deal with the community on the side. However, that also depends on how many guys are working on the thing.
I think the thing that will help make open source games really come to life is for that one project to come along that really just redefines how its done. We've got some really really good projects out there already that in time could do it themselves, like Battle of Wesnoth. I think thats probably the most complete open source game yet. Its even got single player which is pretty impressive. Single player seems to me like something that would be difficult to pull off in a open source model, but they made it modular (aka the campaign system).
So I think if you were to take a FPS, for instance, it would have to be done the episode route like Duke Nukem 3d, or Quake. And have it ready for community made episodes that can easily integrate into the game. In a Diablo styled game in a Quake 3 engine, well, my only concern would be the size of the levels and load times. Because the levels will all have to be decently sized, meaning no loading every 2 seconds.
So the server would have to basically load a ton of maps right from the start and somehow, allow the players to be in different maps at the same time on the same server. I think the best way to do the levels would probably be just do them the Diablo 1 route, each level of a dungeon is a separate level. The nice thing is, since the game would be top down, it would allow you to use less detail on the level, and be able to cut things out that are not visible, like the sky or ceiling.
You could have a camera that spins in a 360 degree angle but then you'd have to use more detail. Which would slow things down on older systems and would require more work. So in my opinion, a locked camera top down would probably be the best route.
As far as 3d modeling, well, whoever would be doing that would have their hands full haha. All those separate items that would attach to the body of the character, all those unique ones, all the decorations and the hardest part, the player and monster models. That would definitely be the hardest part of the development. Granted the level designer could take care of alot of the decorations.
With level designing, I would make sure GTK Radiant is the only editor used. Since itself is open source and is in my opinion the way to level design on any Quake engine. Unfortunately, alot of people like Quark, I hate it. Open Arena level designers use Quark. The problem with Quark is that when you save a map with Quark, it breaks compatibility with GTK Radiant and you can never open the maps in Radiant after that, and Quark is Windows only. Which causes in my opinion, a huge problem.

Fire trucks from Wall, Interior, Philip, New Underwood, Rapid Valley and North Haines fought a structural fire in Quinn early Friday morning, January 6. The Two Bit Saloon, owned by Kevin and Jan Wenzel, burned to the ground.
Philip's Gunner Hook (#31) was double-double-teamed by the Kougars, but to no avail. The Scotties defeated Kadoka Area 63-34.
Wall City Council met on Thursday, December 29, at noon at the Wall Community Center meeting room for their special year-end meeting. Council members present were: Bill Leonard, Pete Dunker, Rick Hustead and Jerry Morgan. Finance Officer Carolynn Anderson, Chamber Executive Director Lindsey Hildebrand and Public Works Director Jeff Clark. Absent were: Mike Anderson and Mayor Dave Hahn. Council President Hustead called the meeting to order in absence of Mayor Hahn. Council approved the agenda for the meeting. Second reading of Ordinance 11-14: amend the banner ordinance was approved.
Some Haakon County residents will be heading to the polls in new locations as the Haakon County Commission outlined new districts last Tuesday, December 27. Every 10 years, following the U. S. Census, states, counties and cities have to adjust their voting districts and precincts if the population has shifted. Each area must reflect as equal of a representation as possible, below a 10 percent deviation from the ideal for total population and for total voting age population. The ideal is each district being the same number of residents.

Vertical farming with seawater
The seawater vertical farm would make another stunning addition to the Dubai skyline Pic credit: Studiomobile via designboom
Article Summary
The saying used to go, 'only in America', but in recent years it might be truer to say, 'only in Dubai', especially when it comes to architectural wonders. Buildings that would be unfeasible just about anywhere else seem to regularly spring from the ground in the oil rich emirate. The next eye-popping construction to grace the skyline could be a seawater vertical farm that uses seawater to cool and humidify greenhouses and to convert sufficient humidity back in to fresh water to irrigate the crops.

AAC @ 128kbps listening test discussion |
AAC @ 128kbps listening test discussion |
Feb 8 2004, 00:59
Rarewares admin Group: Members Posts: 7515 Joined: 30-September 01 From: Brazil Member No.: 81 |
I'm creating this thread so that we can discuss how the upcoming AAC @ 128kbps listening test will be handled. The encoders I plan to feature are: -Nero AAC encoder VBR profile Streaming :: Medium (@Ivan: Fast or HQ mode?) -Apple iTunes 4.2 128kbps -FAAC "whatever VBR setting comes close to 128kbps" -Compaact! "same thing as above" -Winamp AAC encoder 128kbps -FhG l3enc 1.0 as anchor Some codecs that might be considered to replace another: -Real Producer -NCTU AAC -Emuzed -Imagine Technology I am personally very fond of the idea of using l3enc as anchor. It'll be a good insight on how perceptual audio coding developed since the first MP3 implementation. It'll be like "the oldest vs. the newest". Of course, as usual, EVERYTHING is still open to discussion. Remember I am conducing these tests for you, not for me, so please make your opinions heard. Actually, only one thing is not open for discussion: the amount of codecs. There won't be more than 6 (including anchor), no matter what. Some other topics I want to discuss: -Samples tested. IMO we should definitely replace some samples. Specifically Polonaise (I would suggest Fossiles as replacement) and Illinois (I would replace it with our old friend Fatboy). Do you believe something else should be replaced? I wouldn't like to replace Waiting. I love that sample for it's wacky behaviour, so I want to force you guys to listen to it over and over again until your ears pop out of your skull :B -Should only LC be tested? Or maybe test other (better?) profiles when the encoder supports them, like FAAC and Compaact. I think an argument for this would be that it's like VBR vs. CBR - you shouldn't penalize some codecs because others lack that feature. A very good argument against this would be that LC is waaaay more supported now and probably in the future. Opinions? -Do you think there is any need for encryption (it will definitely be used on the Multiformat tests)? If so, we'll only use Schnofler's comparator, since ff123's doesn't support encryption. These are the subjects I can think about ATM. I'll post more ideas/questions as I come up with them. Thanks for your help. Best regards; Roberto.

IMO, this is a test to determine the best AAC codec, not compare MP3 and AAC. if you really want to know how LAME (a free mp3 encoder) fairs against FAAC (a free AAC encoder) run asimple test. with 2 encoders it is much easier than with 6 and LAME included.
if early FAAC is out of the question than the early MP3 encoder sounds best. it will act as a good anchor. in truth, if we REALLY wanted to be able to compare every codec in relation to each other we would have to run a test including every codec at once. that is far too many to do in a single test (time and patience being the limiting factors). stick with AAC encoders and leave LAME out. you never really know how the test will turn out anyway. |

A white person who acts like a stereotypical "white person" the majority of the time, but has periods of stereotypical "black" behavior: such as an unquenchable thirst for fried chicken and an irresistible urge to steal bikes and fornicate with overweight white women who have pierced eyebrows and daddy issues, as if tantalized by the light of the full moon, much like the were-wolf of European lore.
John seems normal at first, but I've known him a long time, you should see him practically drinking KFC when the full moon comes out... total Were-Nigger, watch out.

"WOW!! How good was this book!! Must read!!"
Ok, first let me rebut my first review of the Rise of the Governer. I complained somewhat that the author was "trying too hard to make as detailed and analytical " & "It just distracted me to much from the storyline". Boy was I ever wrong. I just loved the detailed in this book. It was just in aw how he kept using these adjectives and they were just spot on! I have read all the comics and I have recently re-read just past the prison in Comic books. Let me tell you there are charactors in this book that tie into that series of issue of the prison and Woodbury. And it's just cool to seem them in both. So I give a 10 out of 10 for this audio book!
**Semi Small Spoiler Alert**
all -(Spoiler Alert)- I -(Spoiler Alert)- have -(Spoiler Alert)- to -(Spoiler Alert)- say -(Spoiler Alert)- is -(Spoiler Alert)- that -(Spoiler Alert)- my -(Spoiler Alert)- favorite -(Spoiler Alert)- part -(Spoiler Alert)- was -(Spoiler Alert)- the -(Spoiler Alert)- clown -(Spoiler Alert)- zombies -(Spoiler Alert)-. it -(Spoiler Alert)- was -(Spoiler Alert)- like -(Spoiler Alert)- Stephen -(Spoiler Alert)-King's -(Spoiler Alert)- "IT" -(Spoiler Alert)- meets -(Spoiler Alert)- The -(Spoiler Alert)- Walking -(Spoiler Alert)- Dead. -(Spoiler Alert)- Very -(Spoiler Alert)- cool!! -(Spoiler Alert)-

"Who doesn't like The Hunger Games!!"
After the movie made such a buzz, I bought the entire Series. This book has some really good twist in it that made me feel like I was reading the first book and listening to its every word. Can't wait for the next movie to come out. It will be great!! But yeah, if you like the first book, it just keeps getting better!! Enjoy!
I turned it off right away. This is probably a good book for certain readers but my bad on spending a credit on it. Lesson learned
"Joe Ledger needs to be on TV!!"
This Joe Ledger is such a personality he needs to be on a TV series or movies. They must make this for TV!! I enjoyed this book but for whatever reason after reading the first book, I thought it was going to be zombie related. Jonathan Maberry did a great job on making fantasy a reality with real possible scenarios. I just really enjoy this series and I actually bought book three right now. Its like X-files meets Sledge Hammer!!
"It was not my cup of tea."
I thought I would enjoy this comic book style of Zombie slayers but it was very boring. I am thou one of those type of listeners that has to finish the book. I had its moments but it was just cheesy and lame. I did enjoy the location of the story. Some super heroes were cool but again it was not my cup of tea. Maybe more for the teenager zombie genre!
"I just love this Series!!"
I listened to the first two books not to long ago. And when the final 3rd book came out on audio, I listened to the first two books again and then capped it off with Survivors. I just loved the entire series. This 3rd book was another listen strait thru kind of book. I thought he was off on Brewster's voice. And I didn't like the Very Very end. But it did have an ending I was ok with. But its a great zombie Series. One of the best.
"It's a Survivalist must read!!"
I was worried that I wouldn't like it the monotone old man voice of the Narrator and I was right but he is bearable. He just made everyone sound really old. But the story was great and I really enjoyed his knowledge and strategies. I only wish I could prep like they do in this book. They go into real depth on prepping. It was like a prepper's wet dream! But I do enjoy this book. Makes me proud to be an American. And it is a very likely story that could happen in our near future. If you just get past the first couple chapters the book picks up very well and then I couldn't stop listening to it. I marked it off my bucket list (zombies, apocalypse, Survivalist books).
"Sledge Hammer Vs a Zombie Al Qaeda and you have..!"
Man, this new Joe Ledger series I found is awesome!! Joe Ledger is a smart ass, top U.S. Military leader, who is smart and a bad ass. This is like no other zombie book character out there. Storyline kinda follows the same path as the book "Day by Day Armageddon" where it is a daily/hourly/minutes chronicle of what is going on but with in its own style. You get so involved in all the different characters. The narrator did such an amazing job. I thought that Oliver Wyman from "The Morningstar Strain series" was the best zombie narrator but Ray Porter killed it! Not alot of "Zombies" as you would expect but the zombies in this story did not become the undead organically and it makes sense for the set up in this book 1.
I highly recommend this book 1 and my book 2 is downloading as i'm writing this review!!
-Big Art
"It's a Classic, so I had to buy it!"
I just needed to get this book out of my way for one of my survivalist/apocalypse stories. It was actually pretty good. It started pretty slow but I actually really got into it at the middle & end of the story. Its like I didnt want them to ever get rescued. But can you really get rescued from the world bombing each other. I loved the community they developed and all the side stories. I could really picture this book being a TV series. It had good honest hard working families, evil raiders, people with special skills. The skill of bartering and the true worth of what is really important when money is obsolete. Starts slow but if you stick with it, its actually a really good book! Now I know why its a classic. Kinda had a Gone with the Wind feel to it. I recommend it!
Big Art
"SHTF now!! This series keeps getting better!!"
This book 2 is great! I love how book 1 starts from all these different places around the globe and now they are all on the same journey to the same location. And they have to get thru a new world of survivalist, raiders, hordes of zombies, and a secret goverment agents. (spoiler alerts now)
From when they have to decide to get off the submarine and march across the US from Oregon to Omaha. The small town of survivors they meet and the special ops mission they go on to save a mechanics daughter in order to get their truck fixed so they can continue on there way to Omaha. That was the best part of this book.
So go out and get this series. Start with Book 1. Book 3 will be out in June or July!!

About Me
- About Hiroshi Sotomura
- Biography
- I'm the type of person who codes web pages and designs layouts, and enjoy anime, mostly of school life / comedy. And I'd call myself a pretty good gamer, but I'm not the FPS type (which I regularly play nowadays).
I'm also the kind of person who enjoys tech gear, so I read up on various technology news sites. I also have a penchant for reading, to the point that sloppy writing makes me cringe, even if I don't mention it, but I admit that I have a reading deficiency when it comes to novels - simply because I haven't the time to read them. Reading long paragraphs about the development of the Wii (and the Wii U and 3DS) is probably more a hobby for me, though.
I'm staunchly against anti-consumer practices in technology. I'm vehement against strict, pointless DRM as per used on Nintendo devices. - Interests
- Pokémon, anime, video gaming, Nintendo games in general, drawing, ROM hacking, and… not much else.

Nixon's the One
The '68 Election | Sunday, 10 p.m.Narrated by Dick Cavett, this program chronicles not only Richard Nixon's stunning victory in the 1968 presidential race, but the ways in which that historic election gave rise to Red State-Blue State America. Combining archival footage and original interviews with, among others, activist Tom Hayden, former Nixon advisor Kevin Phillips, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and historian David Maraniss, and bestselling author Rick Perlstein, Nixon's the One is anything but a nostalgic trip through the "flower power" decade. Rather, it's a sobering, wry look at how the Sixties divided us-and how Nixon stepped into the breach to claim the biggest prize of all.

America's Generations with Chuck Underwood
Millenials: The New World | Wednesday, 9 p.m.Whenever American youth – of ANY generation – come of age during some "revolution" that creates widespread and presumably permanent change – Depression, War, Prosperity, Social Activism, Family Breakdown, and in the case of Millennials the Technology Revolution – there is ALWAYS good and bad to come from it. Sure enough, Mils possess good and bad qualities because of tech. They've come of age nurtured, coddled, and protected by extreme Over-Parenting, which has delivered good and bad. Chuck will explain that they're going to be a great career generation but are driving their bosses nuts right now. Flawed sense of entitlement, unrealistic expectations. But this generation has lots of Boomer in them, which makes sense because many of them have Boomer parents: idealistic; empowered; engaged; cocky; sassy; think they're gonna change the world for the better, so they probably will. Battered by The Great Recession. Permanently re-defining what it is like to live life in one's 20's, and it has a name: Extended Adolescence.

When Did You Start at WEIU? 2010
Favorite Show on WEIU-TV: This is a tough one! I'm a fan of everything we do both on the air as well as in the world of education. But truth be told, my favorites are locally produced programs. Heartland Highways gives me a chance to see some of the many amazing places in this wonderful area we call home. I've seen places on Heartland Highways that lifelong east central Illinois residents didn't know existed...and then made the short drive to see those places up close and personal myself. And I've learned so much about some of the most interesting people who are our neighbors.
Another of my top three would be Four Rivers Ag Report. Though I'm not a farmer, I live on a working farm and see the daily ag activity that drives our area. No matter what we do, we are a part of agriculture. And I find that fascinating. The things I've learned about our farm community as a result of Four Rivers are pretty amazing. And as much as Four Rivers Ag Report focuses on the farmers in our area, it does just as good a job of celebrating our rural lifestyle.
Last but not least is News Watch. There is nowhere else to find the kind of coverage News Watch provides our area. Even in a world of 24/7 online and cable/satellite news services, I find News Watch the only place to watch and learn what's happening in OUR community. It's unique.
What have you learned while working at WEIU? This could be a chapter in itself!In my case, I came to WEIU after working in public broadcasting for decades.I'd worked for many stations in many parts of the country. My fascination with WEIU was two-fold: The fact that WEIU is MORE than a PBS station, and the opportunity to live in this incredible community. Being a part of a non-commercial TV station that goes so far beyond programming what most PBS stations provide has allowed me to learn an amazing number of new things about our world. And being in the east central Illinois community has taught me just how special and unique this place is. I've learned that what may appear on the outside to be an unchanging environment becomes a wealth of different sights, sounds and experiences with the march of the seasons, the constantly varying weather and the beautiful lighting variations of each passing day.
Why should someone become a member of WEIU? WEIU is certainly not like most TV stations. We're obviously nothing like a commercial TV station which is funded by commercials based on the number of people watching each program. Yet, we're also different than most non-commercial TV stations, as well ... both in what we air and who we aim to serve. And that's important to me. As I've seen more of the media universe surround us with an array of programs, news, shopping channels and pretty much anything you could imagine, I still find WEIU the ONLY place where I can learn about MY neighbors and MY community. I know such a service is not going to be supported by other communities or by commercial sponsors. I frankly wouldn't expect it to be. So I find it important to support that service that serves me and the people who are my neighbors. It seems to be part of the American way of taking care of those things that are important to us. At least that's how I see it!
WEIU is very important to me and I hope to you, as well.

We love to hear from you!
I support WEIU because I know that at any time, day or night we can tune in and we can count on good, quality entertainment and good wholesome programming made available to us. WEIU is what I consider to be a family friendly television station because I know that if my children or grandchildren are visiting and they enter the room where I'm watching TV, I don't have to worry about anything inappropriate being on my TV screen. I know that I can trust WEIU and I love that!

As oil continues to gush from BP's Macondo well and politicians posture, it is time for us to ask why we are drilling in such risky places when there is oil available elsewhere. The answer lies in the mantra NIMBY—"not in my back yard."
