Whats In A Name? Apparently, Quite A Bit!
October 29, 2002
First, let's be up-front. John Snyder has the right to his opinions and The Tentacle has the right to publish them. However, with a multitude of Snyders in Frederick County and many John Snyders in the telephone book, the public has a right to know: WHO IS JOHN SNYDER AND WHY IS HE SAYING THESE THINGS?! We do know that Mr. Snyder has suddenly become a prolific columnist for The Tentacle. He seems to have appeared out of nowhere and generated three columns within the first two weeks of October. We also know that Mr. Snyder considers himself smarter than me, because he claims to know that Republican voters prefer Democrat Bruce Reeder over Republican Lennie Thompson for county commissioner, a claim I cannot make. As a member of the Frederick County Board of Appeals, I have become accustomed to comments from people who have watched our televised proceedings. As a private citizen attending a recent county commissioners meeting, however, I was totally unprepared for a discussion with a couple of commissioners after the meeting, about whether I was responsible for the latest Tentacle column. A subsequent email from a civic association colleague, hoping I was not the author of the offending column, made it clear that a real problem existed. It is quite likely that the Tentacle writer does not know me and had no intention of creating such a controversy. However, I need to know that no one is trying to put words in my mouth. The public needs to know who writes the columns. Like a public official, a journalist opens himself to public criticism. His name is intended to give him credit - not to provide a shield from public scrutiny.
(Editor's Note: Future writings by the columnist for The Tentacle who shares
MOST of the name of this letter writer, will be ascribed to John P. Snyder.)
John S. Snyder, Monrovia

Pat Buchanan on Crime2000 Reform Candidate for President | |
In the African-American community, 28.5% of the boys can expect to serve a jail or prison sentence. In major cities 4 in 10 black males aged 16 to 35 are in jail or prison, or are on probation or parole. Drugs are pandemic. Children do not learn in schools. Conscientious kids are intimidated and beaten up. Girls are molested and assaulted by gang members high on dope and rap.
These are the first fruits of the cultural revolution that is de-Christianizing America. Reading these statistics, one is reminded of Jim Nelson Black: "No matter how far back you look, you will find that religion was always foundational to the great societies. Civilization arises from religion, and when the traditional religious beliefs of a nation are eroded, the nation dies."

Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Perceiving
INTP is a personality type within Jungian Cognitive Function theory.
If you used an online test of any sort to determine your personality type, it is recommended that you become educated in Jungian Cognitive Functions. The following resource is a very all-encompassing outline of the system and describes the difference between the generalizations perpetuated by MBTI and the more systematic approach cognitive functions take in categorizing people in the way they think:
MBTI is akin to horoscope, while Jungian Cognitive Functions (often incorrectly referred to as "MBTI") categorizes people according to their intrinsic differences in cognitive attitudes.
Some of the better INTP type descriptions:
SimulatedWorld at PersonalityNation (under new ownership--will be updated to source link eventually)
Other resources:
Famous INTPs
SimulatedWorld's Profiles of Introverted Types
SimulatedWorld's Profiles of Extraverted Types
Socionics is a similar system that is worth looking into.

LSD? (self.INTP)
submitted 2 years ago * by TeskodabestoINTP
Never did it, curious on INTP experiences on it, where your thoughts took you - etc.
Put emphasis on how it effected your perceptions after having taken it
and if so, give the pros and cons of how you see things now as opposed to before taking it (any struggles you didn't understand? etc).
[–][deleted] 2 years ago (3 children)
[–][deleted] 6 points7 points8 points 2 years ago (2 children)
yeah that's a good point. Shrooms really fuck with "you" more.
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Yeah. That's it. For years I took lots and lots of acid on a whim. No worries about where I was, or what I had to do. I was completely comfortable navigating society on it. Shrooms on the other hand, nuh uh. Those take me much deeper in my mind. I make sure to be in a safe place first.
[–]bdagostino11 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I was the same way, taking lots of acid ect. but I don't like Mushrooms because that can't get me where lsd can.
[–][deleted] 10 points11 points12 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I love psychedelics and I really think they have the potential to powerfully change lives for the better as well as give you a simply unequaled level of happiness.
however as good as the good times are a bad trip is just as bad. I remember having such a bad time alone on a friday night (I would not take them alone until you've done it a bunch/ this was shrooms not lsd) that I couldn't go in to work till wednesday. I just spent that entire time crying. I barely remember the trip but it was simply devastating. (LSD is, in my experience, a lot more friendly than shrooms though.)
get a good group of friends, a safe environment and the beatles and you'll be fine (and don't do too much)
[–]mcc4b3 8 points9 points10 points 2 years ago (0 children)
My absolute favorite. I can't recommend it enough. It allows for a whole new level of introspection. Your thoughts manifest physically as visuals, you feel a cosmic tie between you and everything in the world, you feel you can communicate without words and so much more. God I love it. And to really enjoy it, you can't abuse it; the more often you use it, the less magical it becomes. It requires disciplin and timing between doses to really make it the best experience ever.
[–]andrewcl 7 points8 points9 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I've had a pretty good time every time I've taken LSD. I had some difficult moments during a few trips, especially at higher doses, but every trip has been enjoyable overall. I find that on LSD my mind tends to make associations and connections in fascinating ways. I'll take a few seemingly unrelated or disparate ideas and derive from them, what seems at the time like, divine truths. I'll have dozens of epiphanies about the nature of the universe, jumping from idea to idea with incredible leaps of logic. Of course, I rarely remember these epiphanies once I'm sober, and the ones I do remember are much less profound in the sober state of mind. It also makes nearly everything intensely interesting. I have a tendency to stare at trees or the sky for hours on, utterly fascinated by their strange shapes. In terms of INTP, I would say it greatly accentuates my intuitive facet, while suppressing thinking.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Yeah, I remember some friends and I at one point had a long long conversation about a river. The river was a little tiny disgusting drainage canal though...
[–]takishan 5 points6 points7 points 2 years ago (6 children)
I FREAK the fuck out. I don't take psychedelics, get way too anxious.
If I'm looking for introspective moments, I just take molly. It's euphoria, and I feel my emotions stronger than ever but I don't get the paranoia and the thought loops from LSD / Shrooms.
If I'm getting fucked up for the hell of it, then I go for lean / alcohol.
I also don't smoke much weed for the same reason as psychedelics. I hate being stuck in thought loops.
[–]daigzINTP 4 points5 points6 points 2 years ago (1 child)
I had a bad trip as well. Like, totally disassociated and was completely blind to the world around me, bad. A first, I started getting these weird paranoid delusions. Then, I thought I had somehow died since going outside and was supposed to piece together how it happened from purgatory. At first I thought I was being led to the afterlife, but the voice of someone telling me to go with them was just a friend trying to take me home. Then I started seeing parts of the way home with arrow signs pointing to places on the ground as if "that's where it happened". Then I just totally lost touch and was basically on a waterfall or something (but not really). What helped was having someone there to give me physical cues from the real world, at which point I realized that I was, indeed, laying on a couch. At that point, I knew I was safe and I suppose was somewhat free to fly around my dreamscape. Of course, I did sort of forget this a few times and needed to be reminded again. It's a bit of a mindfuck to lose touch with reality to that extent.
[–]takishan 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Yeah exactly. I like being in control of my brain. Alcohol slows you down and makes you stupider, but you're not gonna be confused as to why the floor is melting.
There's nothing quite like meditating while tripping for the first time and being eaten by a giant carnivorous plant.
[–]kurage 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago* (1 child)
Question! When you're looking for introspective moments with molly, are you by yourself or with a friend? What do you usually do during this time?
[–]takishan 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Usually with close friends. As to what I'm doing, it depends. Sometimes I go swimming, sometimes to a cafe to sit down and drink coffee / talk.
There's nothing quite like it. I'm a type of guy who doesn't really like to talk about emotions or sentimental things. I actually have a really hard time with it. But on molly, it's the opposite.
[–]alfonzo_squeeze 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Xanax makes tripping so much better for me. Even if I don't take it, just knowing that I have the option is comforting when I'm tripping.
[–]k_hole_fanatic 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
This won't be a problem for the people already here, but I had a bad time on LSD. Bad trips can be good though, they force you to deal with some shit that comes up.
However in general I would advise people to make sure they know themselves well before they do LSD. For me, finding the Myers-Briggs was very helpful in defining myself. I feel that if I had diagnosed my MBTI before doing LSD I would have had a better time.
[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I was very lucky my first time, I was with some people that showed me an amazing trip. It was about 10pm and i put my piece of blotter paper on my tongue. (This is so fucking intense just reliving this memory. My heart is gonna explode.) I followed my small group to a rock formation I had been to a couple times to smoke weed, you had to climb up 40 feet (yeah, I know how high 40 feet is) or so, there were different spots at varying heights though. So we were just chilling in this bomb spot with a nice view of the city for about 45 minutes while we were waiting for it to kick in. Then I saw the horizon start to get a purple aura. Then the horizon fucking moved. Don't think I moved a muscle for a little bit after that, as the entire valley was morphing around. So we hung out up there for a while longer, and I had to get used to moving around. Now here is one of the best things to do on acid IMHO. They gave me cloud 9s, right on the top of this fucking rock over the entire city. Basically I was floating upside down on a cloud, with an ipod playing some song in my ears. So I'm not sure if this cloud 9 is called that anywhere besides from this group, but basically 2 people stand back to back, one holds his arms out and back a little, the other puts his arms inside those, locks arms and bends straight forward lifting the cloudee onto the clouders back. Then proceed to evvvver so gently make some cloud movements, up down around, maybe change the view. If you get it right it is extremely comfortable for the cloudee. Anyway we moved/left at some point, and let me tell you I fell in love with that damn rock right there. To climb it seemed like I would just press my body against it and slither right up. Ended up driving down mountain roads smoking mad ganja and bumping bob marley oh man. So that's my first impessions anyway and it was amazing. That trip led me to some strangers basement, some other places and eventually pulled over by the police. That's a whole nother story as well as the rest of the trip. A week later I had my first vial.
So basically this stuff lasts about almost a day. So you can do night/day/night trips or day/night/day trips. There are definite benefits to both. Lights are great at night. Now, where LSD takes me in my mind depends on a number of factors, mainly who I am with, and where I am. You seem to see right through people's outer appearance to the person inside them. You can make amazing connections with people or you can want them to gtfo of your head. I think definitely at first this is an experience you want to share with a friend. Choose wisely though, I think someone that you know very well. The wrong person can ruin a trip quicker and more effectively than anything but the cops or a dead body etc.
For location, I have found that if I am in a familiar place (my house) it keeps me more grounded. If I am in an unfamiliar location (the woods) I can let go of my reality more. Also no cops though I seemed to encounter very often while tripping..
Since the trip is so long and you can do so much I would always have a time(s) for personal reflection where I just get comfortable (great body high) and close my eyes in a dark place. More on that in a second. I tripped too much, and a chunk of it was lsa since I would always test it(eat it), So I wouldn't recommend something that isn't tested.(the actual test.) I can't say I ever honestly had a bad trip. Even while laying in bird shit for hours hoping the cops left I was just chillin out in my mind. Eventually I couldn't really function normally, like I wouldn't be able to talk. Just couldn't get the words out. That led to some awkward nights. So I went about a year or so without tripping, then drunk one night I was all like, hey. Whoever wants to trip tonight it's on me, but you have to take 5 with me. I got a taker, and we were off. I was totally unprepared after the year for how intense that was, and probably spent 30 minutes at the beginning just laying on my bed. I was recently reading a book my boss gave me called something like The Case for Christ. So I was giving a god some thought. The first time I ever considered the possibility was on shrooms, thinking how the fuck I just ate this thing that just fucking shot out of a fucking pile of cow shit and unlocked a whole other part of my brain while flying in circles* through space on a damn rock. Acid helps you simplify things. Like my life, so I'm just laying there and basically broke my life down and saw myself with clarity. It wasn't too pretty. I broke myself into 3 parts, which explained my whole existence at the time. (I still try to always be aware of this now, not something you need acid for.) But, then I realized what an asshole I was being and went to join my guest and enjoy the rest of the trip where I realized kittens are very destructive and that the ground was not flat enough.
I think acid can be a very good thing for some people. I came across a number of people who were just problems on drugs. I had only smoked weed and done some blow and ambien before this. Like another commenter said you can really retain the "you" during your trip.
So, I would recommend it to anyone thinking about it, if you are willing to possibly give up some things in life, security clearance maybe, others. If you aren't with someone you trust to guide you around, just stay somewhere safe.
After I tripped so much, and maybe someone else knows more about the why, lsa maybe, it got to my back. I would have this intense feeling in my lower back, not exactly pain, but not comfortable at all. Sometimes I could feel it if I got really stoned. I went to work my first labor job and my back had a really really hard time with this feeling the first week. Then it got better, I guess the hard work cured me of that.
You will feel very strong, and will not really feel pain, or even a sickness while tripping. Also alcohol will not effect you as much so you can easily drink way too much. So please keep in mind that you are still made of flesh and bone and don't do anything too dangerous. For me, odd things were always happening, like crazy insane odd things. It was good.
One last thing: flashbacks. I'm not entirely sure if I have those or not. I would always see shit moving for a while after doing hallucinogens, and now years after I have done any, if I stare at carpet or a wall or something it will start morphing. DMT was the worst(best) for after effects for me. Sometimes I feel like I'm on drugs, nothing crazy, and I'm not sure if it's related. Also when I walk in big buildings I can totally feel them moving under my feet. Not sure if that's related either, but the only person who seemed to know what I was talking about was some old hippie looking lady that I asked in a building one time.
Damn this is long, and I'm not going to proof read it or I know I'll end up not posting it. Sorry for shitty writing/swearing/rambling. But that's my experience in a small nutshell.
I like LSD, DO CLOUD 9S, be with people you see eye to eye with, location, be careful, test it.
[–]sunfilterINTP 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
LSD is probably my favorite substance to use (tied with DMT - different types of trips entirely).
I find this drug to be a wholly serious experience - while it can be very fun and is absolutely enjoyable, it takes the amount we think 101010, which can be overwhelming.
Take it easy your first time. take ONE (not that that really means much regarding dose), and be sure you have at least a 12 hour window

i find that combination does the opposite. gets you so far inside your head you forget you're a singular entity
[–]marcthedrifter 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
The one time I took LSD I also did some coke and moly on top. Unfortunately, I only got visuals, but it was absolutely amazing. If I could ever find it again, I would really love to do enough to really get in my head and experience the 'ego death' that I've read so much about.
[–]jes5199 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I can hardly even notice that I'm on it. I usually don't get any visuals at all. But everything seems more interesting, and I feel happier. My imagination seems stronger - like it's easier to play pretend, sometimes so much so that it's distracting. And I feel my emotions more clearly.
I've been trying to build imagery with it that makes me happy - I'm trying mix some religious ideas into my worldview. I think it's working, a little.
[–]Libertae 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Psychedelics sound like such a great experience but I think I'm too afraid of going too far down the rabbit hole that is my mind and never returning to the old me.

Hm. I too wonder the same thing. I'd imagine it does. Just like your personality type determines how you experience the world...
[–]ShotgunzAreUsJourneying Through Winter 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
The funnest once every month or so drugs around. You're still you, simply... extended. Nevermind, it isn't simple, but good non-existent god is it intriguing.
I always thought it would destroy "me" more than shrooms, I was dead wrong. I wouldn't recommend doing either alone, it's not horribly dangerous, just not near as entertaining or insightful.
[–]gioraffe32Risky INTP 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Tried it once a few years ago. It was a good, if not a most tiring, time. My friend and I took it, but we kinda did our own thing as far as the trip. And we smoked some weed before hand ("Durrr...I'm not feeling anything yet? Are you? Let's smoke some weed to get this shit going!") And then I started up the Pink Floyd...
After the initial onset of trippiness and general "WTF" and "Oohh, ahh," I got into a really creative mindset while pondering the notion of God. I didn't talk to God, but more as to how people came to create God and why and for what reason and all that. I started writing and typing things out, drawing, doing some mixed media that also involved post-it-notes and page marker post-it things.
The whole ordeal was about 14hrs long, with the first 7-8 the trippy, introspective part. The last half was just ready to do anything ("nerves on fire," a tense almost electrifying feeling), while also being tired as fuck and not really experiencing any visual things. I think I spent that half playing games or watching tv shows. My buddy pretty much ended up playing SC2 and some other game the entire time and then eventually sleeping with some chick. I have a feeling his experience was not anywhere close to mine.
Honestly, I don't think the experience changed me in any meaningful way. I didn't come out with some grand understanding about myself or the world. My visions and goals didn't change. I had no revelations. Even after looking at the stuff I had written, typed, and drew, it was just "Wow, so yeah. OK." I saved it all, looking at it every so often, more of a reminder of what that brief 2yr time period of my life was like.
I want to try it again. Just need to find it.
[–]tedzeppelin93INTJ 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I've only done LSD twice, once with a group of close friends, and once before a party. The first time, it made me pretty excited by social interaction, and I bonded with some people I otherwise probably wouldn't have. At the party, I just wanted to be out of the situation. Before I even peaked I couldn't handle all of the unfamiliar faces. I walked home and hung out with my best friend and his girlfriend who were both sober, and had a lot of fun socializing with them.
TL;DR, it's good and socializing when around people you know well, and intimidating when around strangers.

The marinade for this steak is unbelievable! I can't stop eating it.
Trim flank steak of any fat, sinew and silver skin.
The amount of marinade you will need depends on the size of your steak. The amounts given are for a steak about 3 pounds. Increase or decrease the marinade ingredient amounts as necessary.
Whisk together equal amounts of garlic powder, onion powder, celery salt, black pepper, and salt.
Combine equal amounts of red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and olive oil. Add the spices to the liquid. Put this marinade along with the flank steak in a large plastic bag. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, turning after 2 hours.
Take the marinating steak out of the fridge one hour prior to grilling and let it rest at room temperature.
Grill the steak over very hot coals for exactly 5 minutes. Turn the steak over and grill on the other side for another 5 minutes. Remove to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes. Carve at a 35-45 degree angle. This will greatly tenderize the meat.
You can make extra marinade for use as a delicious sauce, but set some aside before adding the meat. Do not use the meat marinade. Throw out any left over marinade after the steak has soaked in it.
This recipe was provided by Anastasia Glapa from Chicago.

Drum roll..... it's the floral jeans moment....
You wouldn't believe the number of times I've tried these babies on. Actually don't ask my Rugrats as even Rugrat 3 (at the age of 3 with dummy in mouth) said the other day "not again mummy....."
Rugrat 1 was no help at all. I couldn't work out whether to take her sage fashion advice or remember that she's only 7 and thinks a side ponytail, bared midriff (which she's not allowed), one shoulder exposed (ditto) and rolled down socks (knock yourself out with that one) is the height of fashion. "I think there are just too many flowers for someone of your age", she loftily proclaimed. I will admit to being ever so slightly offended and then getting a grip as she sloped off to watch Victorious (remembering this is the same 7 year old who wants me to wear a tracksuit to accompany her on her school trip next term. Enough said) I did, however, take to hiding from her when I tried them on the next 20 times.
When all is said and done, they probably are verging on the side of mutton. There, I've said it and admitted it. But for £40, I think I'm going to just say, what the hell, and go with it. Yes, it does go against every fashion rule in my body but I think there are moments when, so long as they're flattering, it might be ok. And so long as I wear with enough confidence, I may just get away with an Emperor's new clothes moment.
So no more procrastinating, here is the evidence, in technicolour glory:-
Hell, they look really quite bright in that photo......... hmmm maybe I will end up having a breadmaker moment....... But I'm going to give it a go. As a good friend of mine said last week when we went shopping (well, when Bob was out shopping but this was lucid advice which I did take to heart) - would you look back when you're 50 and be more likely to think - I can't believe I wore those, or I'm gutted I didn't wear them when I could have done. I'm plumping for the former.
At the moment, I'm planning on wearing them for nights out, as above (I'm not actually going out here, this was me just bunging outfit on for photo) and am going to see if I can dress them for the day. I'm envisaging loose boxy black or cream tee (which I do actually have, miracle of miracles) and Havaianas or other flat plain sandals (again which I own - yippee).
Would love to know your thoughts - feel free to guffaw loudly. The Husband, by the way, thinks I've lost all leave of my senses and is one step away from calling the men in white coats. Needless to say I may have to keep them for girls nights out. I think though, at £40, they're a great way to get a completely new set of outfits, utilising what I already have in my wardrobe from last year. Which, in itself, is a reason to keep them.
On to what I'm wearing today in this absolutely stunning weather. I will admit I was up at a sparrow's fart this morning and have lathered myself in my gradual self tanner thingy. (new L'Oreal one) I know it's effective, as the inside of my fingers are a dark nut brown. I also know I'm not remotely effective at applying it, as the rest of my body (bar my elbows of course) is still a whiter shade of pale. Fail. I can also imagine that the inside of my rather pale clothing is stained within an inch of it's life. Happy days in the life of an Irish descendant.
I definitely do think though, that the way forward for those of us who aren't ready to bare flesh quite yet (it's still goddamn MARCH), is to wear lighter shades of clothing. Nothing wrong with whipping out the white jeans, just add a pale longsleeved loose top and it's easy to feel cool but not look out of place. Dark clothes just somehow seem warmer in this weather.
So today:-
Nude vest - Primark
Creamy beige (again, this is Unicorn allegedly...) cowl neck top - FCUK
White skinny jeans - Next
Tan leather ankle strap flipflop sandals - Gap
Bone and shell collar necklace - By Malene Birger
Cheetah print ponyskin bag - Zara
See you tomorrow! Am going shopping (primarily to take back all the crud that Bob bought last week....) so may or may not have something to report.

Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I am compiling questions and answers to post here. Feel free to add and comment and I will try and keep it updated.
- What is Chromecast? How does it work?
See AndroidCentrals review: Chromecast review | Android Central
- Does Chromecast require a USB power source?
Yes, the device needs an external power source via the micro USB port. It ships with a wall adapter, or you can plug the USB cable into a powered USB port on your TV (if your TV has one).
Did Google gloss over Chromecast needing USB power? Not hardly | Android Central
- What Apps work with Chromecast?
See this thread: http://forums.androidcentral.com/goo...ming-soon.html
- Does Chromecast work with my AV receiver?
Yes, see this thread: Connecting Chromecast to an A/V receiver
- Does Chromecast work with my HDMI switch?
Yes, see this thread: Is Chromecast compatible with an HDMI switch?
- Can I move my Chromecast to another TV?
Yes, you can move the device between multiple TV's in your home without having to change any settings or run the setup. If you take it with you traveling or somewhere else, you will need to setup the new wifi network.
- I downloaded the chromecast setup app to my PC and tried to install it, but got a message "Sorry, but your wireless is off." What is wrong?
The PC app is only required to initially setup your chrome cast, but unfortunately it only works with devices that have built in wifi like a laptop. If you need to do the initial setup, try using a phone or tablet (Android or iOS). Once the device is setup, then that application doesnt do anything else, you need the Chrome Browser and the Chromecast extension.
- I cant get Chrome on my PC to see the Chromecast device.
You probably need to change some settings in your router. Look for settings like AP isolation (you want this off) or IGMP Snooping (you want this on). Check this thread for some tips: Wired PC to Chromecast
- Will my Chromecast remember more than one wifi network?
*need confirmation of this answer
- I didn�t get my free 3 month Netflix code, why not?
If you ordered from Google Play or Amazon, the offer was cutoff after the first day. If you ordered from Amazon before the cutoff, the code should have been emailed to you a a few days after shipping. BestBuy apparently is still giving out the codes if you buy from them in-store.
- Will Chromecast work outside of the USA?
*need info
- Can you mirror an entire Tab from a Chrome browser on my PC/laptop/phone/tablet?
You can mirror an entire tab from your Chrome browser on your PC or laptop. You will need to install the Chromecast extension in Chrome, and then click the cast button at the top right of the browser. Note: The Chromecast extension for Chrome is still considered a Beta product, and may not work flawlessly.
You cannot currently mirror the Chrome browser from a mobile device (phone or tablet). This feature would probably require root access on the phone/tablet.
- Can you mirror your entire screen from my PC/laptop/phone/tablet?
You can mirror your entire desktop from your PC or laptop. You will need to install the Chromecast extension in Chrome, and then right click the cast button at the top right of the browser and choose "Cast entire screen". Note: The Chromecast extension for Chrome is still considered a Beta product, and may not work flawlessly.
You cannot currently mirror the homescreen from a mobile device (phone or tablet). This feature would probably require root access on the phone/tablet.
- Can you play local media files?
Yes, you can play locally stored media files from your PC or laptop by opening the files in the Chrome browser (you can drag and drop the file) and then casting the tab. This only works for files that the Chrome browser has playback support for. Notably AVI files do not work. A work around is to install the Plex Media Server on your PC and access your local media files via its Plex Web interface.
You cannot currently play files stored on your phone or tablet. Hopefully 3rd party developers can make us something for this.
- I tried to play music stored on my phone/tablet through Google Music app, but keep getting an error
You need to upload your music into your Google account (free storage for 20,000 songs). See this thread: http://forums.androidcentral.com/goo...ml#post2964082
- When I try to cast certain web sites with video, I only get audio, no picture, why?
Some web sites that use FLASH video or Silverlight may be incompatible. Also Chrome browser cast quality is very dependent on the performance capabilities of your pc or laptop Try reducing the output in the Chromecast extension options to 480p.
- Can I use Chromecast while traveling in my hotel?
The hotel needs to have 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi network and the username and password must be public. If the hotel router/network has AP or client isolation enabled (requires you to login through a special hotel web page), you will not be able to set up your Chromecast device. Unfortunately, most hotel networks usually have AP/client isolation in which Chromecast will not be possible.
- Why doesnt casting a browser tab on my Macbook Air look very good?
See this thread: How to get Chrome tabs to play nice with Haswell Macbook Air (2013)

Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
My device works but it works less than perfectly with you tube....That service will stream for maybe 45 minutes then I get the dreaded 'circle of doom' as it freezes and buffers. This might happen three times in a row before it restarts the video where it left off...After another 20-30 minutes the thing is buffering every minute or so...
Hoe do I stop this nonsense. My PC is getting 20mpbs from the router, is streaming 5-7mpbs. The signal at the Chromecast is a good 15MPBS...put another way, signal strength is fine. The device has internal memory...how does one flush that cache of old data? I do not have this issue with Netflix. - 09-19-2013, 01:19 AM #5
Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Mi Chromecast was working ok this morning. I unplugged it and now it does not work at all. I can�t even see the "ready to cast" screen, it is just a black screen. I have try unplugging the chromecast, the TV, switching HDMI ports. checking the reset button (by the way, how can I reset it?) and all the steps of the chromecast troubleshooting page. Does anybody know what else can I do?
I will really appreciate the advice, I just started using it yesterday - 10-22-2013, 04:27 AM #6
Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
No. If you connect the Chromecast to a different access point, you�ll have to go through the setup process. If you then try to connect the Chromecast back to the initial access point, you�ll have to go through the setup process again.
Yes, the Chromecast will work outside the US. But certain apps may not, so the functionality may be limited. For example, Netflix doesn�t work in Hong Kong. But I can certainly use Youtube, Google Play Movies & TV, and Google Play Music. Of course, a VPN service would solve any problems with location-dependent apps. - 10-22-2013, 01:01 PM #7
Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Maybe add the date of last update into the title.
Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
It does not stream from your phone. It streams from the Internet.
You have music stored on Google Play. Your device acts as a controller, telling the Chromecast that you want to listen to music. The Chromecast gets the content directly from Google Play Music via the 'Net. It does not get the content from your device.

Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Check out this sticky thread to see what apps you can use with your Chromecast.
It is possible to stream local content, but it�s certainly not ideal.
Also, never allow country-restrictions to affect usability in this day and age. With the use of VPNs, it�s a non-issue.
Also, you have access to YouTube, right? If so, then you can stream YouTube with the Chromecast. This by itself is worth the USD 35. - 10-28-2013, 07:57 AM #12
Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
I am in the Philippines and can confirm that I have same experience as above. No problem loading chromecast app onto my nexus7 & 5 via play store, nor the iOS app via apple app store. Toggling between wifi networks is not so bad via the android chromecast app except that you must re-enter wifi passcode each time.

Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is there any way to connect Chromecast through Verizon's MIFI 4510L 4G light? I tried connecting to it once and had problems. So connected to my other router, but its connection is a slow broadband service and will not stream fast enough, so it disconnects. It is connected, but so far not been able to view anything.
Re: Chromecast Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can you play local media files?
A few of the apps that can do this are listed below (there are more)
BubbleUPnP (the ultimate Chromecast app IMHO) - not the most intuitive app but set up properly can stream from device, cloud, PC (with a media server running on PC), any web site with video, BubbleUPnP Server running on a PC on the network can deal with any necessary transcoding on the fly to make media Chromecast compatible.
LocalCast (Chromecast compatible formats only - can stream from device and PC (via SMB share or media server).
EZCast (Chromecast compatible formats only)
Avia (Chromecast compatible formats only)
RealPlayer Cloud (Any format, but media is uploaded to RealPlayer Services for transcoding and then re-downloaded to Chromecast)
Need to convert your video collection to Chromecast compatible format manually? (i.e. MP4, h264 encoded video, AAC or MP3 encoded sound, bitrate < 8000kbps) - Handbrake (Windows/Mac/Linux) is free, open source and super simple to use (unlike some other desktop transcoders out there). -

Re: The future of the sailing world. Why are there so few young people cruising??
To answer the original question
I'm only speaking for myself, but here is the reason I'm not cruising. I followed my parents expectations and went to a good college. I currently have over $100k in debt and have to work at least 50 hours a week to pay my bills. I can't afford to live on my own, let alone leave my career to sail the world. Luckily, I do have a great career that I enjoy and am able to sail the lakes here and go on occasional vacations while I work towards my (hopefully early) retirement plan of sailing the world.
Nothing useless about that....

After shedding an $11 million dollar engine's intermediate pressure chamber, having a continuous fuel leak that caused the port wing to be 10 tonnes lighter than the starboard wing, and addressing some 58 ECAM messages generated by the uncontained Rolls-Royce Trent 900 engine failure on Qantas flight 32 last November, Senior Check Captain David Evans inputed into a laptop's landing distance performance application the A380′s vital signs so the computer could calculate what landing scenarios were available. The computer's answer?
"No results could be found with these conditions."
VH-OQA "Nancy Bird-Walton", the flagship and first of the type delivered to Qantas, could not land, the computer determined.
Evans changed the parameters, taking out the factor for a wet runway since Changi was dry, and this time had luck, but would need more of it: the computer had generated a landing scenario for QF32 to return to Singapore. But of Changi's 4000 metre runway 20C, the computer calculated QF32 would need 3900m, leaving a margin of 100m.
The story from there, and indeed before, is well-known and has largely been documented in the Australian Transport Safety Bureau's preliminary report, but after hearing the circumstances from the crew in a new documentary, the report does not do entire justice to the severity of the accident and the crew's airmanship. (The QF32 crew will be awarded the Polaris prize from the International Federation of Air Line Pilots Associations.)
The QF32 story has been looked at again by ABC's Four Corners programme, which aired an hour-long documentary on the subject on 28 March in Australia. The first half covers the flight and the aircraft's return to Changi while the second half covers the investigation and Rolls-Royce's involvement, news from which was published earlier today.
The documentary aims to "tell the real story" of QF32. That real story is one that started before the flight in Rolls-Royce facilities where the Trent 900 was manufactured and discovered to be faulty, leading a new mod standard. The real story is also one that starts after the flight and involves the lack of communication from Rolls to airline operators and Airbus. It also includes the Qantas-Roll lawsuit, still underway.
In short, that real story is in the second half of the documentary and will be reviewed after it finishes airing. So for now, read on for more factoids.
We are told of trivial but interesting details, like the last-minute crew change due to an illness, and first officer Matt Hicks safely returning to the ground an aircraft named after the same woman–Nancy Bird-Walton–who wrote Hicks's reference letter when he applied to join Qantas as a cadet.
We also hear how Joyce found out about QF32. He was in his car when the carrier's investor relations team told him the Qantas share price was "collapsing". The cause was investors picking up on tweets saying QF32 had crashed.
The aircraft did not crash and there were not any ground casualties from the falling debris, although we see an Indonesian teacher recount how a hot piece of engine debris fell into a Batam school, missing a boy at his desk by 5 centimetres.
The Qantas pilots have previously recounted, in great detail, their story. But we get hear more tidbits. At one point they briefed the crew to stand by for an over-run and, later, an evacuation.
Once on the ground, with VH-OQA's brakes exceeding 900 degrees, the crew asked the firefighters to apply foam. "They said 'You must shut down the engines,'" QF32 pilot Richard de Crespigny recounts. "And we said 'We have' and they said 'No you haven't'. So in frustration I slammed open the left-hand window and put my head out the window and I think I expressed an expletive and said, 'Engine no. 1 is still running.'"
Photos may be worth a million words, but for Evans, seeing the damage of VH-OQA back at Changi left him with one word. "Gobsmacking is the only way to describe it," he says. "I didn't expect the whole back of the engine to not be there."
"To look underneath and still see fuel leaking out of the fuel tanks and just walking around, it was actually a bit surreal. There's all this retardant foam blowing around through the air and I'm just sort of wandering around under the plane," de Crespigny says.
We also get to hear from Qantas's Sydney operations team who also saw all of QF32′s ECAMs, which one employee described as "Amazing messages. Messages like we've never seen before, both [in] quantity and severity."
Perhaps the greatest under-statement comes from a passenger who spoke to a Sydney-based Rolls-Royce engineer who happened to on the ground in Singapore after the accident. She recalls the engineer said, "'Did you see that? That should never have happened. That engine should always be a contained explosion.'"
Replay information is available here.

Learn more about Spraysense Anti-Bark Citronella Collar:
Eliminate or significantly reduce nuisance barking with this anti-bark dog collar. The system combines patented Spraylogik technology with proven behavior-modification techniques, providing an effective way to redirect pets away from not only excessive barking, but also other unwanted behaviors such as digging, jumping on the counter, and leaving the yard. Its patented Spraylogik technology delivers a harmless burst of citronella spray that interrupts the pet's behavior. Both humane and effective, the spray works on four out of the five senses; dogs hear it, see it, feel it, and smell it. Citronella is a unique scent that most pets don't normally encounter. It's non-offensive to humans yet unusual enough to distract pets and interrupt the unwanted behavior. Twice as effective as electric shock, the training process occurs instantaneously and without pain. Shock and ultra-sonic products attempt to reduce barking with pain. In addition to being less effective than spray, pain often increases anxiety and aggression and makes some behavior problems worse. The anti-bark dog collar can be used with any breed of dog that weighs 6 pounds or more and is at least 6 months old. It is not recommended, however, for anxiety-related barking unless specifically directed by a behavior professional. The anti-bark dog collar system includes a 24-inch adjustable nylon collar with a quick-snap buckle; an attachable spray device with an "on/off" switch; a 3-ounce can of stain-free, hypoallergenic citronella spray; a 6-volt alkaline battery, and detailed instructions. The system carries a MFG limited lifetime warranty. |

7 year old son with mild/moderate autism, behind in school. cecerns are being brushed off by the teacher and the principle. What next?
My son who is 7 and in the first grade has autism. He is mainstreamed in the general classroom but in the classroom he has only taken 1 spelling test (the whole 9 weeks) while the others took 1 every week. I have asked the teacher to show me some assessments she has for him and after 3 weeks and asking her several times, still no assessments. I have spoken with the principle and she said she would call a meeting but last week but she hasn't called me back yet. The EC teacher went to another school and he has had a sub in the EC room since christmas. What next, what else should i do and what should a mom of a son with autism be concerned about?

@Esquire: You must be one of the naysayers whose never attended a caucus or you
wouldn't post such misinformation, just like the letter writer.
Leavitt, Bennett, Hatch, Jowers etc ARE the insiders! Look at who wants to
change the rules now that Bennett got tossed --- the establishment insiders!
They are furious that conservative republicans came out in droves to
make their majority voices heard. Bennett lauded the system a few years ago and
even pushed for it to be 60% threshold from the 70% to make it easier to get out
of convention without a primary.
Leavitt and crowd want to circumvent
the caucus/convention system for their own power grab. They want to hold on to
what they lost in 2010.
What's pathetic is all the voices on the
Dnews threads who aren't Republican and don't attend the caucus yet post as if
your opinion is fact.
March 15 is the night. Spend an hour with your
neighbors talking about the issues that affect us as citizens. Vote for a
delegate and then stay in contact with that delegate through the convention.
2010 was the start folks -- 2012 will bring more change to Utah!

keep the republican caucus system, as the radical right continues to take over,
the more sensible republicans may start to leave the party shaking their heads.
Too many people support the republican party without alot of thought, anyone who
votes straight party on a ballot, and then leaves everything else blank, should
have their ballot invalidated. If you can not vote individually for each person
you choose, then you are not being a good voter.
The dominace of the
republican party in our state politics is not a good thing: they will not vote
for a ban on gifts which many people see as nothing but bribes. They tried to
ban GRAMMA disclosure laws, they circumvent public meeting laws by calling
everything party planning sessions.
The best thing that could happen in
this state is for the caucus and block meetings to continue; it will force more
people to leave the republican party.

There is nothing wrong with the caucus system! What is interesting to me is the
meme that is being perpetuated that the Republicans have moved WAY over to the
FAR right. What about the wackos on the FAR LEFT? They are just as crazy, only
in an opposite direction. I suppose we are not seeing the far left wackos
because they have an incumbent.
Of course the republicans have to
appeal to the base of the party during the nominating process. But when someone
is nominated the candidate will move toward the center to attract unaffiliated
Also, the current caucus system is great if we can't have
term limits. It's a lot easier to get someone else in instead of incumbents.

@ Uncle Charles, I have attended caucuses. All the complaints you read about in comments on the topic are true. Just take it to the people rather than have aggressive political organizations run the show on a de facto basis. What's wrong with that?

@Esquire: it may be true but I don't think it is the norm. And I also am
confident that those complaining on here are just frustrated they weren't able
to convince their neighbors that their way was the right way and they weren't
elected as delegate.
There are some great whiners on these pages;
most of who have never attended a caucus or having been to one in years.
The General Election is taking it to the people. Any person can file to
run in the General Election. Bennett was considering doing it after he lost in
convention. He could have used all his millions to buy votes of the masses who
only know his name.
The proposal as Leavitt and crowd have stated it
is to circumvent the convention when the Establishment doesn't like the result.
We wouldn't be hearing one thing about the system if Bennett would have won. Not
one word.
The point is the Establishment lost their power to the
people and they don't like it. They want it back.
It's an easy
concept to understand. As for political parties: join one or don't but you have
no say in who represents a party.

Floating panels (sheets, panels, message boxes) are always white in the windows theme, even if you are using the dark version. However there were issues with the colour of the buttons, as seen in your screenshot. This has been fixed for the next release.

It is generally accepted that early determination of the stakeholder requirements assists in the development of systems that better meet the needs of those stakeholders. General security requirements frustrate this goal because it is difficult to determine how they affect the functional requirements of the system.
This paper illustrates how representing threats as crosscutting concerns aids in determining the effect of security requirements on the functional requirements. Assets (objects that have value in a system) are first enumerated, and then threats on these assets are listed. The points where assets and functional requirements join are examined to expose vulnerabilities to the threats. Security requirements, represented as constraints, are added to the functional requirements to reduce the scope of the vulnerabilities. These requirements are used during the analysis and specification process, thereby incorporating security concerns into the functional requirements of the system.

Will there be a CF Golf Outing this year? Seems like last year it was in the middle of May, but haven't heard anything about this year.
Pretty sure Adam is working on putting that together right now.

Is there any update on a potential Cyclone Fanatic Golf Outing for 2014? I took part in the one last year and had a great time and really enjoyed being able to support CF and play some golf at the same time.
A CF Golf Outing would be awesome.
I would def play again. Was a really fun day!
Can it be when the school year starts? I won't be back until late August. It's played at veenker, correct?

A man tending to his backyard was in for the shock of his life when he found 13 tombstones embedded in the soil.
Jason Blackburn, who works as a nurse at the Baptist Memorial Hospital for Women in Memphis, Tennessee, was doing some yard work when he discovered a large headstone beneath a few inches of dirt.
Upon further research, he released these stones were not decorative, and belonged to soldiers who likely died in the 1960s.
Mr Blackburn told the Memphis Commercial Appeal that his first reaction was of complete astonishment. He said: 'I hope there's (sic) not dead bodies in my backyard!'
He continued: 'I mean, that's the first reaction when you're digging in your backyard and you find tombstones.'
The nurse noted that it was a 'spooky' coincidence that there were 13 tombstones in his backyard, which was built in 1913.

I know "final payment" is due 45 days prior to arrival. What can happen if you do not make the "deadline"-if you still have a balance after the 45 day mark?
Well, it's quite possible that they'd cancel your reservation. If you think you're not going to be able to pull together the money in time, I'd contact them now and ask what your options are. I think there's much less of a chance that they'd cancel if you're actively working with them to make the payment, than if you just miss the date and don't contact them. Would it be possible for a relative or friend to put the payment on their credit card, and then you could pay them back when you're able to? Disney doesn't care who makes the payment, as long as someone does.
The reservation doesn't cancel out at 44 days. I am thinking it's still closer to 30, but if you can't make the deadline, I'd call Disney and ask them (because what is true today may not be true tomorrow) and see when the exact cancel-out day will be.
Considering many rooms pop up in inventory after the 45 day package deadline, I've got to think that the computer automatically purges those that have not been paid off. Others have reported calling CRO and explaining that their payment will be a few days late. CM's can then go into the system and enter a special code that will tell the computer to override the non-payment purge. I think you should call them.
They aren't purged at 44 days. I would guess that there are quite a few people who cancel themselves at the 45 days mark, before they are into the change/cancel timeframe (after deciding they can't make it). There is a point where a reservation will auto-cancel. Disney doesn't need to override anything, but I'd call right before the 45 day mark (this is for OP) and find out when the exact date of auto-cancel would be if you cannot make the payment in time. Personally, I would feel better getting it taken care of - even with a credit card - on time, just to make sure.
I actually asked this of a CM last year. I was already on the phone asking about my reservation and posed the question for an office mate of mine. They told me that the reservation is "supposed" to be canceled on day 44 and become available for other persons wanting to book but if the guest calls ahead of time and makes specific provisions for the final payoff, they will "hold" the reservation. I would definitely call them as soon as I knew whether or not I was able to make the final payment. Better safe than sorry! Lisa
Last year, we asked the CM this question when we booked a package. We usually just do a room only reservation. The CM told us that they give a "15 day grace period" for packages with a balance. But she said that you would have to call before the 45 day mark and inform them of your case and then they would make notations on the reservation for you. I would call the CRO and talk to them to see what they can do to help you if this is your situation. Good luck!
Exactly - right around that 30 day period (but again, you really want to try to get the payment done by 45 days, just for peace of mind - and Disney could change that grace period at any time). Disney does change the way they do things frequently - like now, you cannot hold a package reservation under 45 days without paying it in full (until recently, it was a 1 day courtesy hold).
Our first trip at 45 days (I called at 46 or 47 days out) I didnt have enough, I knew I wouldnt untill the end of the month (so it would be 30 days) do to unexpected car bills. So a wonderful Cm gave me the suggestion to change our park tickets from 8 day hoppers to 1 day onlys. That put me $20ish from the amount due being paid off. I called when I had the cash (I refuse to use a credit card so I had to wait for cash on the debit) and changed the tickets back up.
