I leave for a few days and Pike's most recent re-incarnate is gone.
Too funny.
LagunaJose gone? Seriously?
Am I wrong? Awful lot of posts deleted, I don't see any posts with an avatar of Forrest Gump in a maroon uniform.
My friend, you should be writer. Your talent is going to waste....LOL
Hope you had a great new year Amp!
Pike will return, rest assured.
Hey buddy, now that I'm retired, I'm busier than ever. I've gotten back into building and flying radio controlled aircraft. I'm spending day and night in my workshop.
The nice thing about retired is that clocks and days of the week are irrelevant.
A great New Year to you too.

For the most part, I think this is a great thing for the creators and our industry. While a few might miff at the thought of comics being intruded upon by other industries, it means more chances for starving artists to make money, more money for commissions and prints, and chances to travel to exotic locations that were never previously on our agenda.
More and more frequently, creators are being lured to shows all over the world with travel costs (at least partially) comped. When they arrive, they'll be met by capable handlers, lines of cheering fans, and fancy parties while they're given the brief whiff of stardom that's usually reserved for Mick Jagger.
But not always.
While many of my pro friends are eternally grateful for their careers and for these generous invites, some of the shows are taking advantage of creators--ALL levels of creators--and not following through with what's promised. Believe me, I love traveling and I want to visit all my readers in every country I can, but there's nothing worse than getting to the "convention reserved" hotel room and finding out you wasted your money staying in some foreign ghetto.
So here's a list of Creator's Rights when it comes to comic conventions, compiled from many different conversations I've had with both amateur and professional level creators. Keep in mind this isn't a list of complaints by the elite--most of the shows I attend are still on my own dime, and with so many options of conventions these days, it can only be helpful to compile a list of things we're looking for when we choose a show.
This is also meant to help conventions: there's a lot of money at stake and if you're guests aren't happy, then creator word-of-mouth can sink you. We all gain from communication, so hopefully this will start the ball rolling.
*I'm also including bits about shows which are good examples of getting it right.
If you expect the creator to sketch for free, please check with them ahead of time and make it clear what you're expecting of them. They're taking days off from being paid by their publisher, so it's fair to let them know whether they can supplement their income. Can they charge for commissions? Can they sell prints? Books? Some creators have an attendance fee, which I think makes more sense for writers, because they're not making money sketching.
And I don't mind working for free. In fact, I'll likely be doing it this week with my great friends at Urban Comics to attend Angoulême. A few years back, they put my wife and I up for an extra week at a 5 star hotel while Hurricane Sandy delayed our flight, while also providing us with some of the best wine I've ever had. They took care of us, so I take care of them by helping in any way I can. They were clear about their tradition with sketching in France, so I'm happy to do it. And I recommend them to everyone creator I can, even providing them with contacts they don't have. Because that's how much I love their wine.
Before agreeing to a show, I ask to see a proposed schedule. And if I agree to go, then I'll print the schedule out and have it on me in case there's ever disagreement between me and the show about what's expected. But most shows don't have a schedule ahead of time, and this is something I'd like to see changed.
Here's what creators don't want to see: back-to-back signings with no breaks, events that force them to skip lunch, panel discussions that start after 9pm when they'd rather be at the bar, surprise extra signings at the local comic shop, parties where they've raffled off "hang out time" between you and total strangers, and late night duties followed by early morning duties to ensure that you only get 4 hours of sleep.
I did a show in North Carolina with the great Tommy Lee Edwards. And because he's a friend and also an artist, I knew he'd take care of us: when I arrived with Fiona Staples, I knew my schedule, the walking distance to the free dinner, the time of my panel discussions (which I agreed to ahead of time), and we even had someone to grab us from our tables to make sure we weren't late for anything. I highly recommend that show.
3. TRAVEL ASSISTANCE/HAVING A GUIDE (mostly concerns international travel)
There's nothing worse than getting off a plane in a foreign country (where you don't speak the language) and not seeing a representative the show promised you. And reimbursing us with cab fare isn't good enough, because we usually have no idea where the cabbie is going, and having us chase after you for money isn't professional. Better to send a friend in a run down Honda then ask me to take a cab. Even if you're paying your own way, if you're a FEATURED GUEST of any kind that the show is using to sell more tickets, the least they can do is help you around.
I was recently in Brazil where I was scheduled to fly back home 24 hours after the show ended, which is 24 hours I could have spent drawing pages. Luckily they'd hired an event coordinator--when I found out that another creator had a flight back to NYC immediately following the show, I begging the coordinator to switch my flight. Which she did! I'm not saying every show needs a coordinator, but the Supershows definitely should.
As a side note, Brazil also paid each creator for giving a 2 hour talk. So even if we didn't make money selling prints, we were guaranteed at least some income for our time away.
A bad hotel can ruin a trip. I've walked into convention hotels with greasy windows, unmade beds, and dirty showers. Creators don't expect expensive 5-star accommodations, but being stuck in a bad hotel means you're going to bed and waking up in a bad mood. Even the rooms conventions reserve for guest who are paying their own way should pick hotels that are halfway decent, because most out-of-town guests have no idea where they are.
Also, is there anything to do in the hotel? Do they have a store to buy the toothbrush I forgot? Are their restaurants within walking distance? Are the streets outside safe, or is all the German razor wire just for decoration?
One of my favorite con experiences was at a small show in Pennsylvania. The promoters didn't have much to work with, but I appreciated their honesty from the start: it's in a small farm town with nothing much to do, the hotel is the local Howard Johnson which wasn't amazing but it was guaranteed to be clean, and the town had been hit badly by the economy so they hinted that I likely wouldn't be selling many $500 commissions. But they'd pay for gas, buy a few meals, and told me how they tried to invite other guests I was friends with. I went, I partied, and I loved it.
Here's a convention insurance policy I can't stress enough: invite a group of creators that you know get along, and give them amazing food.
Sometimes even the best shows have problems: higher attendance than expected, a few fans that lack convention etiquette, or broken bathrooms and air conditioners. Some of this stuff gets to me even when I know it's not the promoter's fault, but it's less of a problem if I know there's good food and great friends waiting for me. Inviting a clique of friends will always increase the experience, and the promoters will have a better time as well as they witness stuff no one should ever tweet.
Promoters: if there's one takeaway from this list, then it's this one. DO NOT skip on the food and drink.
Can you think of anything to add? Please comment. Some of these concerns apply more to professionals, but I think it's worth posting just so artists ON THEIR WAY UP will know how to handle the landscape. I'd also love to see a similar list on the side of conventions: what can we do as creators to help? And how can we better understand what our duties are? Please help spread the word by retweeting, linking, and favoriting.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency Part 2
Japanese Title: JoJo no Kimyō na Bōken (ジョジョの奇妙な冒険)
Animated by David Production – Licensed by Warner Bros. Japan
English Release Date: May 30th, 2014 (Crunchyroll)
Have you read my original re-cap of the first two series of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? Click the link to that HERE! You can also find my previous recaps of Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency: Part 1 on this site as well! We continue the story of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency with Part 2, where one of the Pillar Men has been defeated. But the threat is still around, as the fabled Red Stone of Aja, which was previously held by Hamon Master Lisa Lisa, has been stolen. Joseph, Lisa Lisa, and Caesar Zeppeli must continue travelling across Europe to ensure that the Red Stone of Aja doesn't fall into the hands of the Pillar Men. If their leader Kars was to steal the Gem, he would be able to wield a power unlike anything ever contemplated before by mortals. This sets the course for the greatest challenge in both Caesar and Joseph's fighting career, and would test them in ways that could potentially break them.
We've talked a lot about Joseph in these re-caps, but now I want to focus on the second trainee Hamon user, Caesar Zepelli. The grandson of Baron Zeppeli from Phantom Blood, he was introduced in the previous part, but is equally as important to the story as Lisa Lisa or the Pillar Men. I thought this character was a lot of fun to be around, although his role in the series as a whole isn't as traditional as his grandfather was. Instead of being a mentor, Caesar is considered an equal to Joseph in terms of Hamon use. This means that during the second part of Battle Tendency, it's entirely possible His character development involves coming to terms with his past, and it's a fascinating story that shows the true depths of the character.
Meanwhile, Joseph continues to be a highlight of each part he's in. He's a calmer, more restrained figure in Part 2, but his personality still shines through. He remains my favourite protagonist from this series so far, and I believe a large part of Battle Tendency's success is Joseph. Meanwhile, the Pillar Men themselves continue to be a very imposing and interesting threat. Both Kars and Whamu are worthy adversaries, and in some cases even respectable for their intelligence and fighting knowledge. Not only that, but their names are a brilliant showcase for the musical knowledge of the author. There aren't many shows that can get away with characters called Esidesi, Kars and Whamu, but this is a very special show. Lisa Lisa is also interesting to see develop, and the return of an unlikely ally is great fun.
When it comes to the edits made for this particular re-edit, the main problem I had was the lack of back-story for most of the characters. Several scenes that are dedicated to the history of the world have been taken away, which is a shame considering how important they were. This doesn't affect the representation of the characters or the enjoyment of the show, but it's still something that I wish wasn't subtracted. However, the rest of the film is edited just as well as before, with the whole re-cap series now being a near perfect introduction to the series for any newcomers. The action scenes and fighting are even greater in Part 2, and the different scenarios and situations are much more imaginative than most other anime series. There's an entire sequence that utilises Roman chariot racing as the main gimmick, and it's beyond awesome. We can also see a greater variety in lcoations and art-styles, with the focus being on Switzerland and Italy once again.
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Battle Tendency was a fantastic display of excess and imagination, and I consider it to be one of the greatest animes I've ever watched. Everything about it is just wonderful, whether it's the variety of quirky characters, the insane action scenes, the style and presentation, or even the music that blends exotic backing tracks with classic rock songs. Both parts to Battle Tendency are akin to masterpieces, with only the omissions in the second part being a sticking point for me. While I figured Phantom Blood was fine, it didn't display this much excitement and fun, and I had a blast going through all three hours of this. This film ends with the discovery of an old foe's coffin, and a familiar sight in jail, so everyone who used these re-edits to catch up on the show knows what to watch now…
Final Score: Part 1 – 10/10
Part 2 – 9/10
Note: I thought that this would be the final re-cap I would need to do for Jojo's Bizarre Adventure on Crunchyroll, but that's changed very recently! It has been confirmed that Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stardust Crusaders will be dubbed into English, with the first three episodes premiering on the website from July 3rd-6th. Look for my summary on all three episodes, with my impressions on not just the episodes themselves, but also the new English Dub!

Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
Was the story in the first one really "that good?"
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
Again Aspyr for us? Damn it!
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
I had issues with the ending of the game but outside of that, it was probably the best of the light-saber based games in the SW universe.
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
This game can suck my balls! The first one was pretty meh, a few terrible levels, with boring and annoying enemies. Seriously, how many force and light saber resistant creatures are out there? PC port was ok, but still couldn't help the rough unpolished feel the game always had.
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
Dammit, Aspyr again.

I want Jedi Knight back! Wheres Kyle Katarn?! Multiplayer mother****er!
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
For all the bitching about the Force Unleashed port, it was still the best version of the game.
Re: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II Fact Sheet
instead of more harder better powers and sabers, keep them simple and make the enemies mortal

If you've just upgraded your Windows 8 (non RT) device to Windows 8.1 and suddenly upon reboot you're facing a quietly humming computer with a black screen of nothingness....don't panic. You've probably just got Master Boot Record issues. This can be a fairly easy fix, particularly if you've already created a Windows 8.1 Recovery disk. If not, you'll need to use your bootable install media for Windows 8.1 or find a working Windows 8.1 device and create a recovery disk.
We'll assume that you don't have your bootable install media, and you've found a working Windows 8.1 device. On the working device, open the Charms and select Search.
In the Search charm type 'Create a Recovery Drive'
You'll get a prompt to allow the Recovery Media Creator Wizard to run, make sure you allow it. Insert a writeable USB Key (**warning** all content on this key will be deleted).
In the Recovery Media Wizard you'll specify this usb key as your Recovery drive.
The Recovery Drive Creator will wipe the usb key, and create a bootable partition with the Recovery tools installed. Once the wizard is complete, remove the usb key, and boot your impaired Windows 8.1 via the new usb Recovery Drive.
You may need to hit ESC or F9 during the reboot to select your boot drive. Here I hit ESC and selected the USB key I created during the Recovery Drive Creator.
From the Recovery Disk Menu - select Troubleshoot.
From the Troubleshoot menu - select Advanced options.
From the Advanced options menu select - Command Prompt.
In the command prompt - type 'bootrec /fixmbr'
Hit enter. Quickly you should see a confirmation like above. Type exit and hit enter.
You have two options back at this screen...you can continue to Windows 8.1 or (I recommend) Turn off your PC and restart it.
If you haven't already, remove the usb key, and start your device.
You should be back up and booting into Windows 8.1.
Thank you, you saved me from wiping my computer :)
Another easier and instant solution is to hold down Shift-F8 key when you power on to boot into your hidden recovery partition on your hard drive and you should get that "Choose your option" screen as displayed in this article.
I upgraded another machine so I could get a boot disc. bootrec /mbrfix didn't fix my original, now I'm just left wondering about the stability of the machine I updated. This is so aggravating.
How about the worst case scenario; don't have a recovery boot disc, don't have access to another computer running 8.1... Is there anywhere I can down load this?
I'm with Lauri... I have a laptop with Win 8 pre-installed so can't create a Win 8.1 boot USB as my Win 8.1 would be a download upgrade.
I had to roll back to Win 8 due to this issue and won't touch Win 8.1 again until Microsoft fix.
If there is anyway to create a 8.1 boot USB without access to a Win 8.1 machine please let us know.
I have also no system running 8.1pro neither 8.1pro bootable media
plz help me
My Windows 8 issue was with dispaly adapters driver
None of the above options work.
Booting from my 8.1DVD or just created USB Recovery Drive and just choosing "Continue" does boot my laptop...
I just have to remember to kick-start it 10 minutes earlyer...I'm not ready (yet) for a clean install.
/fixmbr does boot my laptop, but after a shutdown I'm booting black again.
I'm wondering how Tim did a role back to Win 8 (which worked perfectly)
I am stuck I try to boot up it boots and as soon as I click on my account type my pass to login it's stuck on black screen with a. Cursor my computer is acer aspire s3 it doesn't work I tried what you told me but nothing
Any other tips and I don't have another device please help
Nothing is working for me. How do I roll back? Shift-F8 or even just F8 isn't doing anything on boot-up, just a black screen! Arghhhh!
Safe mode shows as black screen then I cant go through step by step procedure
I had this problem, and spent a few hours finding how to fix it. For me the problem was graphics, but not the drivers...
If you're using the Lucid Virtu MVP software, which comes with a large number of motherboads to enable sharing between the integrated graphics and a separate card, then THIS IS THE PROBLEM. It does NOT work with Windows 8.1.
Boot into Safe mode, uninstall Virtu MVP, and problem fixed.
They have released a beta for 8.1 but they want you to pay for it...
I cant get into recovery mode i still have a black screen with the cursor.
Thank very much dr you saved my Dell
I still have the black screen with a mouse pointer appeared when I moved the mouse otherwise disappeared. Funny thing was if I left the black screen for over 20 minutes or more the black screen went to log on screen and it works as normal. If I shut down the computer and start again it went to black screen and just wait again. Very frustrating. I tried many suggestions from tech-geek but failed. Can anyone out there help?

[Verse 2]
from Kendrick Lamar – A.D.H.D Lyrics on Genius
This song serves as a deep commentary on our generation's ADHD, he approaches a girl who claims they are both crack babies and then bails right away in search of her drink saying she'll explain later but at that moment she is a little more concerned that the party might be too loud and get busted.
Kendrick is highlighting a huge point about our apparent ADHD: we are so focused on our party, our drinks and our drugs that we can barely take a minute out of raging to make a real human connection. Not only that, we feel we need these things to make any human connection at all. Just as Kendrick tries to socialize with this girl, she bails looking for her drink, once he's alone with her and about to share a connection (albeit shallow) with her, they get interrupted by a homie with some dank bud. And in true ADHD fashion, they forget the intimacy and self-medicate some more (She looked at me, looked at it, grabbed it), choosing drugs over love which reminds her to explain why they are crack babies. .
Kendrick is lamenting the party and drug oriented focus our generation has over any real human connection. Our generation's ADHD has us prioritizing drugs and alcohol over reality and then once we're properly fucked up, either nervous about being caught or unsure if we're actually fucked up enough leading to more drugs to numb our insecurities. Kendrick doesn't know where the human connection can be made in the midst of all this and in his attempt, is unsuccessful because in the end we're all crack babies. Love and human connection require a vulnerability we'd rather avoid by putting up walls and focusing on derailing our emotional and rational selves with drugs, drugs, and more drugs. .

Here's a tip: Stop by this locals den on your way to the airport (it's just across the street), and get food to go. Hertz, National, and other rental-car storefronts surround this bright and shiny hole-in-the-wall. You can order food, drop off your rental car, and then get a shuttle to the airport. Or eat in at the brightly polished green Formica tables (with matching chairs) assuming the heat is part of your experience. Included in the filling lunch specials, which change daily, are the tasty lime drink (or barley drink or whatever's freshly made that moment), pinto bean soup, and choice of several main dishes. Most dishes are served in or on old-fashioned red pottery plates, bowls, and mugs. By about 5 pm, after breakfast and lunch specials are served, it's strictly tacos, huaraches (cornmeal patties topped with meats and condiments), and other grilled meat items called antojitos.

EPA water survey foolishly fails to consider smart water
By: SGN Staff
Quick Take: The EPA is out with a report showing the United States needs to spend nearly $400 billion on new water infrastructure between now and 2030. But as far as I can tell, they simply want the country to install the same "technologies" we've been using since the 1800s. No mention of making this new infrastructure smart so it can do more with less.
Of course we need additional pipes and treatment facilities and reservoirs. But all those new facilities would do us a lot more good - and cost us a lot less in the long run - if they were intelligent and interconnected. - By Jesse Berst
EPA Survey Shows $384 Billion Needed for Drinking Water Infrastructure by 2030
WASHINGTON â€" The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) today released results of a survey showing that $384 billion in improvements are needed for the nation's drinking water infrastructure through 2030 for systems to continue providing safe drinking water to 297 million Americans.
EPA's fifth Drinking Water Infrastructure Needs Survey and Assessment identifies investments needed over the next 20 years for thousands of miles of pipes and thousands of treatment plants, storage tanks and water distribution systems, which are all vital to public health and the economy. The national total of $384 billion includes the needs of 73,400 water systems across the country, as well as American Indian and Alaska Native Village water systems.
"A safe and adequate supply of drinking water in our homes, schools and businesses is essential to the health and prosperity of every American," said EPA Acting Administrator Bob Perciasepe. "The survey EPA released today shows that the nation's water systems have entered a rehabilitation and replacement era in which much of the existing infrastructure has reached or is approaching the end of its useful life. This is a major issue that must be addressed so that American families continue to have the access they need to clean and healthy water sources."
The survey, required under the Safe Drinking Water Act to be submitted to Congress every four years by EPA, was developed in consultation with all 50 states and the Navajo Nation. The survey looked at the funding and operational needs of more than 3,000 public drinking water systems across the United States, including those in Tribal communities, through an extensive questionnaire. In many cases, drinking water infrastructure was reported to be 50-100 years old.
The assessment shows that improvements are primarily needed in:
- Distribution and transmission: $247.5 billion to replace or refurbish aging or deteriorating lines
- Treatment: $72.5 billion to construct, expand or rehabilitate infrastructure to reduce contamination
- Storage: $39.5 billion to construct, rehabilitate or cover finished water storage reservoirs
- Source: $20.5 billion to construct or rehabilitate intake structures, wells and spring collectors
EPA allocates Drinking Water State Revolving Fund grants to states based on the finding of the assessment. These funds help states to provide low-cost financing to public water systems for infrastructure improvements necessary to protect public health and comply with drinking water regulations.
Since its inception in 1997, the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund has provided close to $15 billion in grants to all 50 states and Puerto Rico to improve drinking water treatment, transmission and distribution. The Drinking Water State Revolving Fund program has also provided more than $5.5 billion to protect drinking water in disadvantaged communities.
EPA is committed to utilizing the tools provided under the Safe Drinking Water Act to assist states and to better target resources and technical assistance toward managing the nation's drinking water infrastructure. In addition to Drinking Water State Revolving Fund grants, EPA awarded nearly $15 million in funding in 2012 to provide training and technical assistance to small drinking and wastewater systems - those serving fewer than 10,000 people - and to private well owners to improve small system operations and management practices and to promote sustainability. EPA also works with states, municipalities and water utilities to strengthen the resiliency of drinking water systems against the potential impacts of severe weather events and climate change.

My husband took me back to UCLA (where I was in intensive care for weeks) and walking the halls was odd. The nursing staff would first see my husband and smile and then their gaze would land on me and they would stand stock still, stare with a shocked expression.  It was as if I were Lazarus come back from the grave and they could not believe their eyes. It made me feel so strange.  For weeks afterwards I told my husband, "I feel like they are family that I left behind and I need to bring them out."  He said, "No honey, it's their job to be there. They want to be there."  But I had a hard time believing him (with my emotions.  I understood... Read More

After surviving a very traumatic first pregnancy with a nightmare delivery (30 hours of magnesium-induced hell, ending in an emergency c-section) and even more debilitating recovery, one would think I was DONE having children. Let's be honest, preeclampsia tends to put a damper on a mother's hopes for carrying other children! The health risks mean that many of us in the preeclampsia community state "one and done" with certainty that it is the correct choice for our own health and... Read More

I lost three naturally conceived pregnancies and did many failed fertility attempts before deciding to move on to DE IVF (at the advice of several REs).  However, at the advice of a therapist whose help I sought to deal with the grief I also had immunological and clotting tests run and I came up positive for APA with elevated NK count.  My RE said I should move on to DE and if I got pregnant I should take low dose prednizone during the first trimester and inject lovenox, a blood thinner, for the duration of the pregnancy.  I did both with my pregnancy, achieved with the help of an egg donor (first two possible donor cycles cancelled due to problems with the...

I had our son when I was at 35 weeks.  I had a sudden onset of preeclampsia.  He was born by emergency c-section and spent 3 weeks in the NICU.  Besides being small and having some respiratory distress he was very healthy and has and is a very active child.  We just found out we're pregnant with our 2nd child!

God saved me as 19 years of age. I am sharing this testimony with you first, because if it hadn't been for God's divine intervention in my life, I wouldn't have made it through this traumatic event. I was raised in being told about God from my mom and grandparents, but I come from a very broken household. My parents divorced when I was 12. My dad was an alcholic and was imprisioned for DUI manslaughter for 10 years. Every day I woke up wondering what was the purpose for my life, why was I created? I struggled with feelings of depression and lonliness and tried to supress it with drugs, sex and friends. An addiction to cocanie eventually lead to a nealy fatal over-dose. After that, I...

My husband and I had tried for almost 3 years to get pregnant. I had given up all hope when one day in January of 2006 my period was late and I decided to take a pregnancy test. The first one I took didn't look like it was changing after I stared at it for 30 seconds, so I just tossed it in the trash. Later that day while I was using the bathroom I happened to look in the trash can and noticed that there were two lines on the stick. Not just one. The next morning I took another test, then took a shower. When I got out I looked at the stick and noticed that there again were two lines! I was so happy! But I had to go to... Read More

All the stories I've read have a happy ending.... In 2002 I met my future husband, JB, funny, loving, kind and honest. I fell pregnant in April 2003 at a grand age of 24 - never ever having been on any contraceptive. I was more scared of having disappointed my parents than at actually being pregnant- I loved it - I wanted the baby!!! Naively, we thought all would go well, all we had to do was wait 9 months, and hooray we are parents. Though unprepared, we went on to prepare for the new arrival, attended antenatal clinics and all. But at 20 weeks, while at work, I felt excruciating lower abdominal pains, called the ambulance and was taken to hospital and... Read More

On October 2010, I was so happy when I found out that I was pregnant with my first child. It was so easy for me because I didn't experience things other women did, like morning sickness or nausea and other uncomfortable situation that a pregnant woman always encounters. Before that, I don't have any medical history that need attention or can cause problem with my pregnancy. I go to my OB regularly for my prenatal and had all the laboratory test done and happy to say that it all went right and they don't see any problem with me and my baby. So I thought I was so lucky to have normal pregnancy. We were so happy... Read More

I just delivered my son, via a second c-section, a month ago.My daughter's birth almost 2 years ago was not a smooth process. I endured a 36-hour labor of pitocin, getting an epidural after my water broke. I stalled at 5 centimeters and had to be delivered via c-section. I had my baby girl on 10/24/09 and she was 10 lbs. 8 oz. I was not diabetic. The recovery was painful, and I was swollen like a grape. My eyes were so puffy. My toes were spread out on my feet and I couldn't bend them because my feet had swelled to much. But despite this, my blood pressure only started to rise slightly on my last day in...

I didn't get pre-eclampsia, instead moved rapidly from eclampsia into full-blown HELLP that gave me a stroke, ruptured my liver, and put me in a three-week-long coma from which the doctors were not certain I'd emerge. I was blessed with world-class medical care, completely paid for by my Union-provided medical insurance. I also had amazing friends and family who helped care for our infant daughter, so that my husband could be with me every step of the way, advocating on my behalf. Now, more than a year later, I am finally finishing up cognitive therapy and re-testing to qualify for my driver's license again. I am blessed because my daughter and I both survived... Read More

After the birth of my son in 2001, it was now 5 years having a Norplant and I felt that it was now was good time to try and have another baby so I had Norplant removed. I immediately conceived in 2006 and so I thought it would be a similar to my first pregnancy which was smooth with the usual morning sickness. I attended antenatal clinic at private hospital where they had a package which was cheaper, I thought than having a private doctor. At about 5 months in the pregnancy I started swelling all over my body but I didn't think it was anything I just thought it was just normal pregnancy weight. During my... Read More

I went outside for fresh air and put my feet down and they wre so swollen my toes didn't touch the ground. My next doctor's appointment was 3 weeks away. When I went in for my monthly checkup, they did all the usual tests and did not say a word, just looked at me as if they wanted to say they were sorry and that they knew what was laying ahead for me. When my nurse practitioner came in she rechecked my urine and bp, then gave me a prescription and told me to take it with me to labor and delivery along with my test results. i was sent home about 8 hours...

Like many of those involved with the Preeclampsia Foundation, Kristen Simmons has a unique story of survival, but Simmons' case included a very unusual complication. In July 2009, Simmons developed severe preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome shortly before the birth of her daughter Sydney. Sydney was born not breathing, but was successfully resuscitated, while her mother bleed internally, going into multi-organ failure. Simmons ended up needing a liver transplant only days after giving birth and was transferred from her home state of New York to a high risk facility in Pittsburgh, where she was placed in a medically-induced coma for weeks.

My pregnancy was nearly perfect. I felt better than I had my entire adult life. I didn't have any morning sickness, I avoided many of the typical pregnancy complaints. I absolutely loved being pregnant. Then at 36 weeks I went to my OB told me I was measuring big and sent me for a follow up ultrasound at the hospital. I was 36 weeks 4 days. I arrived at the hospital nervous, but not too concerned after all I felt fine and baby seemed to be doing well. Thankfully my husband was by my side. There had been a debate on whether he should take more time off work for another appointment. I was happy we would get to see baby one more...

Written April 2002: On March 23, 1998, the EMTs from the ambulance wheeled me into one of the labor & delivery rooms and were preparing to transfer me to the bed when the waiting perinatalogist on call snapped at them to leave me alone: "We don't have time for that!" The ultrasound machine was waiting and the doctor checked my pregnant belly, and then looked at my husband and me, "I'm sorry," he said. "It's too late." In confusion, desperation and amidst the spreading fog of semi-consciousness, I begged him, "Can't you do an emergency c-section and save the baby? Can't you do something? There must be some mistake!"... Read More

My second pregnancy was uncomfortable from the start, but by 16 weeks my OB had me monitoring my blood pressure and going to an internist for medication. Both she and the internist I saw for blood pressure medication told me that I had chronic high blood pressure that had only been detected because of the pregnancy and additional monitoring. However, I had never had high blood pressure at all prior to the pregnancy. I also had not had the intense and days-long headaches I was experiencing. They were written off as hormones or maybe the blood pressure and I was told that they would lessen once my body got used to the Aldomet I had been...

 I lost my baby Gabriel on April 9th, 2011. I went to the hospital vomiting and with pain in my upper right abdomen, and my doctor told me it was trapped gas and sent me home. Three days later I was in so much pain I went back to the hospital, and my liver was failing, my platelet count was down to 7,000. I ended up being transferred to another hospital and they had to deliver my precious angel. I was only 22 weeks. My baby boy only weighed 7 oz. and 9 inches long. This is by far the hardest thing I have ever gone through. I really don't know how to cope. The hardest part was telling my eight-year-old twins that their baby... Read More

This morning, I was walking my children down the driveway for their very last day of the school year. My son went to the mailbox and handed me a stack of envelopes. On the very top was the newsletter for the Preeclampsia foundation. I had wondered at first if it were only a coinincidence, perhaps this newsletter was sent to all women, or perhaps I was meant to receive it today. Because only moments before my son handed me the mail, I looked at my little girl, proud, that today would be her last day of Kindergarten, and I looked up to the sky with a grateful smile, because I remember the very day I almost lost her. On October 22, 2005, I was rushed to the hospital in the back of... Read More

I generally like telling horror stories, but this one is hard to tell. I always end up trying to reassure people that what happened at the end of my wife's second pregnancy is very rare, but then I have to admit that I have met many women who suffered from preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome. So it's not so uncommon. And worse, it seems inexplicable. My wife was seven months pregnant with our second child and it was the week after we had thrown her a baby shower and a few days after another favorable doctor's visit. She told me she felt like she was catching a cold or something, and she went to bed saying she was ready for this pregnancy to hurry...

National Tennis Centre (Canada)

|National Tennis Centre
|Toronto, Ontario
The original National Tennis Centre in Toronto was located in the north end of York University's Keele campus next to the Metro Toronto Track and Field Centre.[1] Originally the courts were clay, they were later changed to Har-Tru. The site was too small for the growing tournament, as pressure from the ATP + WTA Tours collectively forced the building of a new site on the west end of York University. The site had 6 courts for play, and 4 practice courts (used for housing player facilities). The structure was an open air stadium with wooden seats and was not suitable for a first class tennis tour. The stadium held roughly 10,000 fans, and a second show court held roughly 2,000. In 2003 the stadium was torn down and replaced by the Rexall Centre, located to the west of this site. The current site is not vacant, with only centre court being demolished. 8 of the outer courts are still present.[2] The university uses the building for office space.

Prized 1892 Liberty Double Eagle PR65 Cameo1892 $20 PR65 Cameo NGC. Although not quite as rare as the Philadelphia issue from the preceding year, the 1892 is a significant date within the Liberty double eagle series. The bulk of production this year was delegated to the half eagle and eagle denominations. A mere 93 proofs were originally produced in addition to only 4,430 business strikes, and the number of survivors in each category is far too small to satisfy today's ever-expanding group of gold collectors. Apparently more than half of the proof production went unsold and was melted at year's end or was eventually spent, since proof double eagles did not carry a significant numismatic premium above their already significant face value until well into the twentieth century.
As with all of the proof 1892 twenties we have been privileged to offer, this specimen boasts appreciable contrast between the mirrored fields and the design elements. The color is a pleasing yellow-gold and the strike is executed with pinpoint precision. A thin veil of streaky haziness is seen over much of the reverse, which may explain why this elusive Gem Proof did not receive the Ultra Cameo designation. An important opportunity for the advanced double eagle specialist. Census: 1 in 65 Cameo, 0 finer (4/06).(Registry values: P2) (NGC ID# 26ED, PCGS# 99108)

The welfare state and its consequences: The case of unemployment insurance
Michael R. Smith, James McGill Professor of Sociology. Over a long period, particularly since WWII, rich countries have equipped themselves with a set of protections (the welfare state) to reduce the likelihood people will experience catastrophic income loss. While the welfare state itself is not a matter of debate, the design of its institutions is. There's been particular interest in the (un)employment insurance program. Until the early '80s Canadian and US unemployment rates were generally close. Since then, Canadian rates have persistently exceeded US rates. The extent to which this gap can be attributed to program design differences has been the subject of considerable debate, which this talk will review. Also, potential program design effects will be explored using comparative data from Canada and Australia, two countries with very different unemployment compensation program designs.

It just so happens the United States birthday is the same as CSS-Tricks birthday! It was on this day, eight years ago I first launched the site. Since then, I do a bit of a commemorative post each year. …Read Article →
A fun three-part series by Rachel Smith:
The newly-introduced CSS "snap points" properties could make it a whole lot easier to create CSS-only scroll effects (once browser support catches up). This post from Sergey Gospodarets' blog includes demos of snappy scrolling for image galleries and full-page vertical scrolling.
Scroll snapping is used widely for a better separation of the provided content (vertical full height pages) or, for example, to emulate galleries behavior... Can you imagine how easy would be creating such effects using CSS only?
The full specification is worth a review.
Nice demo from Hugo Giraudel where the footnotes are order-labeled with CSS counters and provide jump-down and jump-back links.
When we make a new component on a website, we're effectively creating rectangles of different sizes, whether we realise it or not. But what happens if we want to experiment a little? How many different ways are there to make shapes?

The latest episode from HTTP 203, a series of talks about front-end development with Paul Lewis and Jake Archibald, takes a look at progressively loading assets.
Jake makes the comparison between websites and the way that video games will let users download and play the first level instead of forcing them to wait for the all the assets to finish downloading. What does your level one website look like?
I guess the plan is to stop with the "element queries" and start thinking and referring to them as "container queries". We've been following this saga for a while. Element queries have a serious pitfall: infinite loops.
.our-element:media(min-width: 500px) {
width: 499px;
As Responsive Issues Community Group member Mat Marquis puts it:
Well, since the query no longer matches, the new width is no longer applied. Since that new width is never applied, the element query would match again, so the new width would be applied, so the query would no longer match, so the new width wouldn't be applied—and so on unto infinity. We've achieved a TARDIS-caliber paradox with just a few lines of CSS, and there's no predictable way for the browser to handle it.
Jon Neal actually had some ideas on how browsers could handle that:
Infinite loops would freeze at the offending block. While infinite loops are much more likely to happen with element media queries, this issue has been around since
:hover. Therefore, a clear specification would be doubly useful.
But alas, perhaps forcing the queries onto a parent element will help:
... we need to reframe the way we talk about a potential solution. Since a solution can't allow an element to restyle itself, we can build that constraint into the specification: queries attached to an element can only influence the styling of that element's child elements.
I don't think it totally solves the infinite loop problem, but makes it easier to handle somehow?
For a primer on this, check out the post The Debate Around "Do We Even Need CSS Anymore?". That post is intended to present the idea of styling a website through inline styles as applied through JavaScript, as a way to help with some of the perceived problems in CSS. There are, of course, points to be made and opinions on both sides. I'm going to close the comments here so the conversation can be focused there.

The February 2 issue of Inorganic Chemistry featured a tribute to the late Ames Laboratory chemist and Iowa State University Distinguished Professor John Corbett. The issue's cover featured the ISU campanile surrounded by models of some of the compounds discovered by Corbett during his 60-year career at Ames Lab and ISU. Inside, a two-page editorial discusses Corbett's career and highlights his major accomplishments.

It has been a rather long time since I've last posted. Let me tell you why!
First, I accidentally managed to delete my Dropbox folder which contained all of my Unity projects. A stupid, stupid mistake, it demotivated me and made me realize, once again, that the rolling-ball-project just didn't keep me interested. While the physics engine in Unity is really, really fun, I just couldn't think of any ways to make the game exciting, and I silently halted development.
I then spent my free time working on building my gaming PC, which is quite the little beast! I've been playing games like Mechwarrior, Goat Simulator, Skyrim, Empire: Total War, and many, many others. While the GPU certainly isn't the best, I've had no problems with any game I have thrown at it!
I played with the Unreal Engine for quite a bit, too. I love using Blueprint, however I felt that it over-complicates a lot of things, such as creating a vector and setting the values of other types of variables. Brilliant engine, still needs a lot of work. But what can you expect from an all-visual development environment?
So finally, I came back to Unity, because I decided to start development on a game idea I've had for a little while now. Basically, without giving away too much information, the player is a type of spy agent in a set of VERY unusual circumstances. The style of the game will be very reminiscent of games like Conker's Bad Fur Day, in that it will be rather cartoony. I might even use toon shading, should it fit the feel of the game.
So even though I shelved the rolling-ball-project-thing, I was able to use a LOT of the same coding techniques as a basis for the main mechanics of the game. For example, I have a fully-functional GameStateManager class, which will keep all persistent data flowing and allow me to control the game from a single source.
I did have to create a new class which allows me to save multiple types of data types using the built-in PlayerPrefs class. I needed a way to save boolean values and so I did a bit of Googling and found many solutions. I based my new file management class off of one of them and also decided to add the ability to save 3D vectors, something that will come in handy a LOT for this game.
I already have a good chunk of the basics programmed for this game, and I can't wait to get started on more. I'm going to be creating a custom camera controller script that will allow me to do a bunch of different things with the camera. I picture having one mode that allows the player to "automate" the camera and kind of "show" them where they need to go next, but otherwise it will function very much like most cameras in games do these days.
I really don't know how to describe the genre of this game. Imagine a mix of games like Uncharted, Conker's Bad Fur Day, a typical FPS, and top-down shooter, and that might give you an idea of some of the design choices I've made. As for the story of the game, that's still being fleshed out, but rest assured that it will be over-the-top silly, and very much full of puns. Anybody that knows me in real life knows that I just can't seem to resist making puns!

Good Biner
Bought a couple of these to replace the airlocks I lost. Used them for a couple of weeks now and they work as you would expect for a Black Diamond biner. Decent amount of working room inside the gate for trad belays using a cordalette without being too big. The screw gate works smoothly and doesn't bind on the gate. What else can you say, good biner at a good price.

These features provide a frame for describing, comparing, and analyzing the infrastructure of teacher learning across schools, districts, and programs of support. They imply a purpose and rigor, suggesting that teacher learning is serious business, a product of thoughtful design and collective system-wide participation, and that the rationale for participation and learning should be clear and compelling.
In the next two sections, we extend our discussion of teachers' opportunities to learn in the organizational context of schools and departments and in professional development programs. We use examples to illustrate how the features listed above are enacted in professional development and to provide further evidence of the teacher and student learning effects of well-designed teacher learning opportunities. It is important to note that the above features are derived from a diverse body of research, much of which is not specific to science. Wherever possible we draw on science-specific examples.
For several decades, researchers have reported significant benefits of organizational changes that facilitate teacher collaboration, including increased student achievement in schools characterized by strong patterns of collaboration among teachers (Corcoran, Walker, and White, 1988; Ingersoll, 2004). When teachers work collectively in teams, work groups, or as a department, their efforts can yield important instructional results and measurable effects on student learning. Collective work and learning in groups is what Wenger (1998) and other researchers refer to as "communities of practice." A community of practice involves much more than the technical knowledge or skills associated with the work. Members of a community of practice work collectively on core tasks that members learn to execute at increasing levels of proficiency over time, drawing on support and feedback from the group. Common tasks (and the underlying knowledge that supports them) serve as the focal point of the community. In a community of teaching practice, individuals engage in the shared work of teaching. For example, they collaborate in preparing units of study, analyzing student work or videotaped lessons, developing assessments, and coaching and mentoring one another.
When teacher teams, work groups, and departments function as communities of practice, numerous studies have shown strong, desirable effects on faculty willingness to implement instructional reforms, teacher relationships with students, and student achievement outcomes. For example, the Bay Area School Reform Collaborative works at the district, school, and classroom levels to promote systematic and continuous education improvement through building and sharing professional knowledge and fostering

2015 Cajuns' Football Schedule Released
Cajuns on national television twice
Cajuns on national television twice
Louisiana Ragin' Cajun football coach Mark Hudspeth to join prestigious list of Collegiate Coach Award recipients of the past.
He became a head coach at the collegiate level at just 24 years of age. And, Tuesday night, Louisiana Head Baseball Coach Tony Robichaux tries to become one of the youngest coaches in NCAA Division I history to reach 1,000 career wins.
It's safe to say that Sun Belt Official Ray Acosta won't be receiving Christmas cards from Head Ragin' Cajun Basketball Coach Bob Marlin anymore.
Because of expected bad weather on Sunday, the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns have made a change in their weekend schedule.
Crazy things can happen in midweek games, but the Ragin' Cajuns held off the Demons in their own house, 7-3, to get their record back to even keel.
UL football will promote Melvin Smith to defensive coordinator, and have decided on two new hires to the defensive staff, this according to our friend Tim Buckley at The Advertiser.
The Acadiana Amateur Baseball League will be holding open tryouts this Sunday, February 15th, 2pm at Youngsville Sports Complex (Pixus Field).

Originally written on Football Nation | Last updated 9/17/12
I was able to take in the Browns at Bengals game this afternoon from the 30-yard line at Paul Brown Stadium, and despite a tough division loss, the Browns looked better than I thought they would.Defensively, Cleveland took a step backwards, giving up 27 points (the other Bengals TD was a punt return). This was to be expected with star cornerback Joe Haden out due to a suspension.There are some issues out there in the secondary. The front seven did a good job slowing down the run all day, but the corners were playing too far off the receivers, even with safety help over the top. Offensively, I was pleasantly surprised with the play of Trent Richardson. He ran hard, and took a screen pass 23 yards for a TD breaking four tackles in the process. Richardson ended up with 109 yards rushing on 19 carries.Brandon Weeden looked like a different QB compared to last week's performance. He completed over 70% of his passes for 322 yards and 2 TDs, but most importantly, had zero turnovers.We...
