But apps like Osmand+, DoggCatcher, and others - where I had specified that their data files be kept on external SD card - no longer work. Seems like the new location has to be specified as /storage/extSdCard instead of /sdcard/external_sd. Osmand+ is buying it, as are DoggCatcher and MoonReader. DoubleTwist is not. At the moment, it looks like I've lost the entire music collection. Not a huge deal because it's real home is on my PC and once I get the directory location sorted out it should be a matter of re-synching. Bottom lin (General)

That June, the Obama campaign released his certificate of live birth on its Web site as part of its "fight the smears" effort.
You know a certificate of live birth is not a birth certificate and all that.
A week after getting my certificate, I called Reig's with some follow-up questions.
early 15c., "action of certifying," from French certificat, from Medieval Latin certificatum "thing certified," noun use of neuter past participle of certificare (see certify). Of documents, from mid-15c., especially a document which attests to someone's authorization to practice or do something (1540s).

(En español: Insulina)
Say: in-suh-lin
If someone has diabetes, he or she has trouble with a hormone called insulin. Insulin, which is made in the pancreas, lowers the level of glucose (a type of sugar) in the blood. It does this by helping glucose enter the body's cells. Glucose is the main source of energy for the cells. And because you're made up of cells, you want those cells to get the fuel they need!
Your body gets glucose from the food you eat, and it travels through the bloodstream. But without insulin, glucose can't get into the cells. In diabetes, the pancreas doesn't make enough insulin or the body can't respond normally to the insulin that is made. This causes the glucose level in the blood to rise.

Author has written 36 stories for Legend of Zelda, Sly Cooper, Teen Titans, Harvest Moon, Naruto, Kingdom Hearts, Super Smash Brothers, Mario, One Piece, Pokémon, Kim Possible, Scooby Doo, and Beauty and the Beast.
Notice: From here on, it should be acknowledged that all my writing will be postponed indefinitely. I realize that many of you enjoy my works, but currently I am going through a state of great stress, which means that even if I got myself to write, the end product would be worthless. I do beg pardon for any inconvenience this causes. Sincerely, MasterofHearts1313
Gender: Rather effeminate to be completely male, but the doctors say I'm a guy. I am one hundred percent straight, though.
Age: Not too young and not too old, and that's all I'm going to say about that.
Ethnicity: American, physically. Japanese, mentally.
Anyways, I love Love, so you'll find a lot of romance in my stories. I also support any heterosexual pairing, as long as it's sensible. For example, I'm okay with some age difference, but I don't like middle-aged people paired with teenagers. I also have problems with pairings where the characters have never said two words to each other in the series. It can be cute, but difficult to work with. I prefer pairings that have some history. However, predictable pairings don't amuse me very much.
My favorite pairings
Kingdom Hearts
Kim Possible
Ron/Camille Leon
Ron/Adrena Lynn
Ron/Joss Possible
Ron/Betty Director
DNAmy/Monkey Fist
Waluigi/Captain Syrup
Tiny Kong/Funky Kong
Tenchi Muyo
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Sokka/Ty Lee
Legend of Zelda
Dark Link/Ruto
Rock Lee/Sakura

I'm tired of people claiming their OCs aren't Mary-Sues, so I decided to write a short guide to knowing how to make sure your OC isn't a sue.
1. Mary-sues are overly beautiful.
Not trying to point anyone out, but there was one fic that I read where the first chapter literally said "My name, is Sharni, 21 nearly 22 years old. Blonde hair that gos to mid-back. Sparkling ocean blue eyes. And this, is my adventure that is about to begin." Okay, I didn't even bother to do anything after I read that. I almost facepalm'd myself. COME ON MAN! YOU DON'T JUST WRITE THAT! THAT'S 100 PERCENT MARY-SUE MATERIAL RIGHT THERE!
2. Mary-sues have a "tragic" past.
3. Mary-sues are usually the same (personality/job wise) as the person they're paired with.
4. Mary-sues have extraordinary physical/mental strength.
5. Mary-sues force the canon character they're paired with to act OOC (out of character).
For example: If you paired a girl with Uchiha Sasuke, you can't make Sasuke fall in love and woo her and smother her with showers and kisses... because that's very, very OOC for him. Same with Hitsugaya. Their personality is more leaning towards... "cool and icy". In fact, you'd probably have a hard time not pairing a mary-sue with either of them.
6. Mary-sues are more often than not "siblings" to one of the canon characters.

When you fight giant Ursula in KH1. Could she be more oblivious to my partners attacking her neck>

Zemyx, because people don't have them obsess over sex all the time.
40. SoKai or SoRiku?
SoKai. Finally, something heterosexual!

Future Fics
Christmas Gone Ron
Rating: T
Okay, things ended interestingly for Ron in Vacation Gone Ron, but that was in the middle of summer. Now, it's going to be winter in Galleria Stoppable and everyone is all abuzz. Of course, things start to get serious when Yori comes back to stake claim on Ron, and Kim is gunning for Ron for becoming a worse womanizer than before. And when I say gunning, I mean with more than just guns. As if two grand crimes in the making wasn't enough, where did all the mistletoe come from?
Waluigi: Grand Gemopolis
Rating: T
A brand new idea for a whole new Waluigi game. This time, things are more serious and more original. Sick and tired of being neglected by Wario and beaten by Mario and Luigi, Waluigi decides to move far away, to a new city and country that the Mushroom Kingdom citizens have never heard of. Once there, though, he'll find himself caught up in a plan to overthrow the mayor, who only goes by the name "The Skeleton". "The Skeleton" is also a crime boss, and Waluigi will have to spend several years to bring down an entire criminal organization. On the way, he'll need to make friends, do favors, get a job to make money, and choose from five girls to fall in love with and marry. Good thing he has help from Onion, a nerd who can hack anywhere, anytime, and everytime, and GameShark, a crafty ex-criminal who knows all the shortcuts in life. Rated T for violence, suggestive humor, and just to be safe overall. I mean, as a game, it'd almost be like an E 10+ rated version of Grand Theft Auto, not that my game is based off of that one.
Pokemon: The Kuro Region
Rating: K+
As if I'm not crazy enough to write up games and novels, I'm making my own Pokemon world. Citrine, Onyx, and Opal (Citrine and Opal are boys, Onys is a girl) travel throughout the Kuro region, where the trainers, the gym leaders, and every last Pokemon is new to you. Well, I might use a previous evolutionary track or two, but most of the Pokemon are my original creations. I'll even have a Kuro Region Pokedex up soon. Rated K+ for instances of suggestive humor and fantasy violence.
Brides of Beastboy
Rating: T
For anyone who has read 4 loves, 3 Graves, 2 Much Pain, 1 Beastboy, I'm sure you'll be excited to know that I'll be writing a full series on it. Join Beastboy as he lives with three wives, Raven, Blackfire, and Kitten, not to mention his kids and the chaos. After the first three, though, could wedding bells still be in the air for our widower changeling?

Docker and VMware vSphere both allow the running of multiple applications on one physical server. However, the similarities end there. Docker is more likely to focus on meeting the emerging needs of the DevOps community than to go back and build all of the data center management pieces that make VMware the market-leading data center management platform.

Attending Gigaom Structure was an exercise in getting fire-hosed with the leading edge innovation that public cloud providers are bringing to their customers worldwide. These innovations not only will have a profound effect on public cloud computing, but also will ultimately impact data center architectures, costs, and benefits worldwide.
Backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity have changed quite a bit over the years, and they will continue to change into the future as more capability, analytics, and functionality are added to the general family of data protection tools. As we launch ourselves into the clouds, we need to perhaps rethink how we do data…
A private/hybrid cloud management platform must offer a rich set of services, be easily implementable, and offer compatibility with public clouds. OpenStack fails in all of these dimensions and as such is destined to completely fail as a private or hybrid cloud offering. Therefore, OpenStack will fail as a private, hybrid, and public cloud offering.

I just got off the phone with Addison Pate, the Tennessee House Democratic Caucus press secretary. He contacted me in response to my rant about TNDP blogger outreach yesterday, in which I was a little rough on him.
First, he offered his sincere apologies for not keeping bloggers in the loop, and for not responding to my email which he didn't recall getting. He said he had just taken over his post at the time and was trying to get things sorted out. He said it has been a real challenge working with newspapers and local TV news to get out their message. He thinks blogs helped in that regard during this cycle, by keeping some stories alive so the press would have to cover them.
We talked about online communication strategies going forward and including blogs more as a part of that, although there are some concerns to be worked out. He felt that Gray Sasser was referring more to the anonymous commenters than responsible bloggers.
Overall I liked what I heard. Addison gets it and sounds like a young, energetic guy who is open to new ways of doing things to get the House Democratic Caucus message out in as many venues as possible to better inform voters on why their progressive agenda is good for working people and everyone else in the State. Hopefully he will follow through on that, and so will TNDP party officials.
I got a sense that the entire Tennessee Democratic Party apparatus is shell-shocked at the moment, and still trying to figure out what happened and why and what to do going forward. I predict there are wholesale changes coming down the pike, so stay tuned.
The one thing that everybody seems to agree on is that this was a wakeup call, and Democrats absolutely cannot allow this to happen again in 2010. Everybody will have to work hard for the next two years just to undo the damage, much less prevent catastrophe.
Absolutely. You cannot keep
Absolutely. You cannot keep fighting holding actions, as they have for YEARS, and not expect that this will happen. This requires taking REAL stands, stands that might offend some people, but will attract more than you think.
I'm talking about FISCAL issues, not social ones, we have to go on the attack with an income tax plan that works, and does not hit the middle-class hard but makes the Williamson County folks and the Farragut folks and the Germantown folks pay their fair share of expenses.
We need to find young people with energy and dump the good ole boy network.
We gotta stand up where we are and start the rebuilding phase.

LeftWing: I'm talking about FISCAL issues, not social ones, we have to go on the attack with an income tax plan that works...
Frank Cagle offered an analysis in MetroPulse this week of why (or why not) the recession might prompt this debate again this coming session:
(Summary: He thinks even if it comes up, it still won't fly. 'Course, he didn't want it in 2002, either.)
talking vs doing doing the talkers talking
There is so much talking and so little doing going on. I get it. You get it. Now they supposedly "get it." We all apparently get it. So, any takers on getting on with it?

Was the FX series a failure?

Re: Was the FX series a failure?
I think the problem with the FX series was that it got off to the bad start with the nv30 and actually later got another kicking later. The nv30 came out of the blocks and was expected to be quicker than the current ATI, but it was not, so a general ill feeling developed. The later kicking was when DX9 games came out and round 2 of the nv30's failings became apparent.
Two hardware flaws in the 128 bit bus and 4xN pipeline seemed to be the main problem, as well as nvidia's DX9 shader problems. They could not do too much about the last two, but they did go to a 256 bit bus for the 5900 series and at that point things started to look up. Also the drivers actually managed to give it some polish and make the best of a fairly poor lot. The 5900XT was an excellent card for the money for the majority of games in it's timeframe.
5200 -> bad
5200U -> poor to average for it's price point
5500 -> bad
5600 -> poor
5600U -> poor to average.
5700 -> average
5700U -> good
5900-> good
5900U -> good
5900XT -> very good for it's price point
5950u -> good
the main success the FX achieved was actually connected toit's bad points in that those bad points made nvidia learn some lessons. I think you can see how well it learn;t those lessons in the 6800 series today

Homefront 2 To Be 'Best Title We've Released' – Crytek
Homefront 2 will be more than just "Another Far Cry 2 or Crysis", according to Crytek's CEO Cevat Yerli, and is shaping up to, "The best title we've released so far".
In a NowGamer interview going live later this week, Yerli touched on the recent news that Crytek UK is developing Homefront 2, which is due to be published by THQ in 2014.
Yerli explained that both Homefront and Crysis universe will remain separate in both scope and feel, "Homefront is going to be Homefront, and Crysis will be Crysis. There will be learning shared between Crytek and Crytek UK of course, but how the gameplay of Homefront 2 will look like, it's too early to say."
However, Yerli did stress that Homefront 2 will be a, "New take on the franchise", and added, "We are very excited about this. We want to make sure that Homefront 2 rocks, and we want to be sure that by the time of release, it's the best title we've released so far."

In order of occurrence, I really enjoyed the inaugural track meet at the new track at the high school.
The pure joy from the Harrison County coaches that came from being the envy of the coaching community was great to see. Especially after years of having to travel to compete in top meets, the athletes and the coaching staff deserve to have this facility.
I thought that the meet was well run with a couple of exceptions, which I will not list because I know that the athletic department is also aware of them and is working for solutions.
The Harrison County tennis team ran its season record to 3-1 as they romped over district rivals Pendleton County and Deming last week.
First-year coach Kara Mattox's netters only lost three matches in total as they ran rough shod over their opponents.
Last Wednesday, facing Pendleton County, the No. 1 and 2 singles players and all of the doubles for both boys and girls, won and in most cases by large margins.
The Pendleton County squad won only one match in the team play and two of the exhibition matches.
The Harrison County Fillies took three hard-fought victories in the Bracken County/Webber Farms Tournament in Brooksville over the weekend.
Walton Verona was the first opponent on Friday as they brought a 6-2 record to face the 2-1 Fillies.
Harrison County started the scoring in the top of the second as senior Kaitlyn Shepherd led off with a walk. Two errors and another walk later, the Fillies had a 1-0 lead with the bases loaded and no outs.
The first-ever track meet at the new Harrison County Athletic Complex needed two ingredients for coaches Danny Simpson and Robert Walker to be happy.
First, things had to run smoothly, and second, the Breds and Fillies had to perform well and win.
Coach Simpson, in particular, was hoping for victories and smooth sailing to honor the past contributors to the track program.
Freshman Jordan Martin started his first varsity game this year on Tuesday and got plenty of support from his teammates to support his solid effort. The young hurler faced the minimum number of batters in his three innings pitched, striking out five and walking no one. Meanwhile, the Thorobred offense was smashing out 15 hits and scoring 20 runs to give him all of the support one could hope for in a baseball game.
Josh Moss led Harrison County in hits with three in three at bats while both Shane Fowler and Jared Martin smashed home runs.
The Harrison County girls' and boys' track teams competed at Western Hills High School's open track meet Friday afternoon. The meet, which had 19 teams competing, was held in less than ideal conditions as the temperatures started in the low 40s and dropped throughout the event.
Natosha Ingram led the Fillies by winning the shot put and finishing second in the discus. The Fillies were also able to gather points in the hurdles and the 3200M relay.
The Fillies placed eighth in the 19 team field scoring 31 points.
The Harrison County High School Dance team traveled to Evansville Indiana Saturday and brought back the first place trophy from a national competition. The Heartland National Dance Competition at The Centre in downtown Evansville hosted squads 23 squads from the central part of the United States.
The competition started at 9 a.m. with the individual competition, solos, and ensembles and other non-team events. The team competition was in the afternoon and consisted of each squad doing routines which have a maximum time of two and one half minutes.
A few weeks ago, Brandon Barnett pinned his way to the 189 pound division high school wrestling state championship.
We have already established that high school baseball almost always has to consider the Thorobreds in the picture.
There are many years when the cheerleaders are in the hunt for state awards.
The Harrison County Tennis Team rolled past Bracken County Tuesday afternoon on their home court on the Hilltop.
The netters took 12 of the 15 matches as they took their first win of the year in grand fashion.
No. 1 singles girl, Julie Henson, battled to an 8-8 tie and then lost the tiebreaker, and Katie O'Neal dropped her match to Shelby Hamilton 4-8, but after the two set backs, the Harrison County girls' squad was only tested in one of the remaining matches.
I'll have to admit that as an official sometimes I take up for them just because but most of the time I don't. Especially basketball officials because, due to the nature of the game, I believe they sometimes call inconsistently. I don't mean one official is inconsistent but that from one to the other they call and/or look for different things. But whatever you may believe about officiating some of the remarks that I heard and read after the games Saturday were kind of sad.

Re: Getting a VA Loan with Veteran spouse with bad credit[ Edited ]
11-11-2012 11:48 PM - edited 11-12-2012 12:00 AM
Asailorshort wrote:
Tahul, unfortunately va mortgage benefits aren't transferrable. If you're not a vet yourself than her name will have to be on any va mortgage. Do you know her current score? Also, you said you'd be willing to put down 20%. With 20% down, you could just use a conventional mortgage. I also believe it depends on the state whether both spouses have to be on a mortgage. In many states, its fine to have only one spouse on the mortgage, but there are some that require both spouses, so thatmay be worth some research on your states rules. Also, different rules may apply depending on whether its a primarary residence, a summer house or an income property. (But since you are talking about fha snd va loans, i'm assuming you're talking about a primary residence).
In community property states you can keep the spouse off the loan, but they have to sign a quit-deed before the loan will fund (I'm going through this right now). However, their monthly payments on their credit will count towards your DTI, but their negatives (collections etc) won't,.
As far as convetional I would agree... you don't have to pay the VA funding fee w/ a conventional, plus if you're putting 20% down you wont' have PMI, which is one of the main reasons to get the VA loan.. also you don't have to go through a VA appraisal (they are sticklers, and there's a list of reasons they won't approve the sale).

Woman's body found in car submerged in pond
The Texas Rangers and Jim Wells County Sheriff's Department are investigating the death of a 41-year-old San Antonio woman, who was found dead in her car, submerged in a pond near Farm to Market Road 738, just north of Orange Grove city limits.
Stacy Saenz, 41, a flight attendant, was last seen alive on March 11 by her fiance, who lives near the property where the pond is located. Two young adults fishing at the pond on Sunday, noticed the bumper of Saenz's green Honda Accord floating up and called 911 and law enforcement including Constable Mike Mitchell.
Monday, the Nueces County medical examiner completed an autopsy, and determined that Saenz likely drowned. It's unclear how long Saenz had been in the water, said Ric Ortiz, chief forensic investigator with the medical examiner's office. Before making a final finding, the office wants toxicology results, which could take several weeks,
Jim Wells County Sheriff Oscar Lopez and investigator Sgt. Jose Martinez said Tuesday that an investigation into Saenz's death is ongoing.

Martinez said Saenz did not leave a suicide note.
