Sick of Sick and #s

Wednesday, October 06, 2010
Here I am, here I am! Still alive and kicking, but have been under the weather for about two weeks now and I'm sick of it. Friday and Saturday I totally lost my voice (I'm sure my family was secretly happy). Haven't felt horrible, but have had enough persistent congestion and fatigue to be annoying. Have been trying to use that as motivation to eat really healthy, but there have been a few days, just getting soup at the local deli sounded good... which meant eating the incredible flatbread/pita stuff they have that goes with it. And which then means walking by the bakery case with all sorts of fantastic pasteries which I just had to sample. I've been trying to keep up good exercise, but have had some days I had to take it easier than I wanted.
As I said in the last few blog entries, it all really boils down to buckling down on the food choices. I skated by this weekend w/out major disaster, but still a little too much extras so that I broke a streak of being in deficit on Saturday. Sunday wasn't wonderful either, but I ran almost 7 miles and did some walking/playing so was able to burn the calories to keep the day in check... still not wonderful.
Speaking of streaks, my tracking streak is now at 30 days! Yay... one month of solid tracking. That is a good trend. Now, if I can get a better streak fo days in range, I might see some movement on the scale. I'm seeing 3-4 days of being in range, then 3-4 days of being over on the range, but maybe staying in a deficit... and it just is not working. The scale has not really moved in about two weeks.
Back to the positive... exercise is consistent. I had some lighter days here and there due to feeling a bit sick, but still doing it. I traded walking and yoga for a run on Saturday and boy was it a reminder to me to do some more yoga more consistently. On the flip, last week, I ended up with extra walks on 3 different days. Now that the weather is so nice, it makes it easier to get out for a 15-20 min walk here and there. Last Wednesday after having run and gone to the gym in the morning, the girls convinced me to walk to the park in the evening after dinner... nice when the kids force me into more activity!
I'm feeling the need to post #s like I did previously... it helped me be more accountable and looking back at comments I made with the #s to see what was going on. Here goes for the last two weeks:

4-Oct 1500 325 1175 -275
5-Oct 1525 475 1050 -400
I feel like I should have seen movement with these #s.. BUT it is easy to see what is going on weekends. And I think a number of these days could have been estimated a bit light on the calories. I'm working on that now and have been trying to do more measuring. Also being mindful of any passing bites as I walk through the kitchen... must track those!!!

hooray for numbers! Keep posting them -- I will get back to tracking in my excel sheet, too. It definitely keeps me aware of what's REALLY going on. Amazing how we can mentally blur a day and not understand why we're not losing. Numbers don't lie!

Martino joined the Falcons as an undrafted free agent in May. Roby caught one pass for 11 yards in his four games with the team.
With the team up by a ton, Atlanta started using their subs in the third quarter. Jacquizz Rodgers received five carries for 6 yards. Rodgers also caught a pass for 3 yards.
Eric Weems seemed to be the biggest beneficiary, hauling in four passes for 69 yards. Fullback Patrick DiMarco gained 35 yards on three catches. Levine Toilolo also contributed, catching two passes for 25 yards. Courtney Roby picked up 11 yards on one reception.
They'll take on the Vikings Week 4.
Jake Matthews, the starting left tackle, is the only one actually battling an injury. He was ruled out earlier in the week with a bad ankle.

Originally written on The Scores Report | Last updated 10/23/12
Ok – every weekend is great for tailgating at a major college football game, and Columbus ranks up there as one of the most iconic college football spots in the nation. But this past weekend was particularly good, as the Ohio State Buckeyes had their backs up against the wall versus the Purdue Boilermakers, a team that has given the Buckeyes fits in recent years. The Buckeyes were 8 points down late in the game, and their star quarterback, Braxton Miller, was on his way to the hospital for an injury he suffered in the third quarter. But backup quarterback Kenny Guiton found some magic in the past minute to miraculously tie the game with a touchdown and two-point conversion, and then led the Buckeyes to the win in overtime. I wish I was there. Well, Jerod Morris was there courtesy of La Quinta to enjoy the game and all the tailgating leading up to it. Check out his diary of a very fun 36 hours.

Rivers have become sites of contention surrounding how they can best serve the people living along them and the nations through which they flow. For some, they provide cultural meanings and livelihoods; for others, they represent progress in the ways they can be developed and used. We will critically examine several case studies of rivers to unpack the cultural, environmental, economic, and identity conflicts that arise worldwide as people's concepts of rivers collide. Issues explored will include colonization and trade, indigenous histories and rights, economic development and dams, water rights, environmental debates, and transnationalism. The rivers we will look at include the Connecticut, the Mekong (Southeast Asia), the Ganges (India), the Yangtze (China), and the Amazon (South America), each bringing different stories of meaning, conflict, development, and environmentalism. Theories from anthropology, history, human rights and agrarian studies will inform our explorations of these rivers and their controversies.

Each year in the UK there is a Shed of the Year Contest.
Klinker or clinker bricks were overcooked rejects, a product of intense and smokey coal-fired kilns. They were considered a waste product until early Craftsman builders found their sculptural architectural merits.
Beautiful buildings but the thought of birds flying into the glass is dreadful, so all large panes of mirror should have a deterrent, like a hawk cut-out or strips of ribbon hanging in front. Nesting season would be a particularly problematic time.
No maintenance, long lasting, impenetrable poplar bark siding is a cradle to cradle siding option.
Bark Walls. Bark is waterproof and will not rot; its familiar surface is richly graphic.
Reclaimed corrugated metal is the most earth friendly option.
Fence made from brushwood, Japanese and Australian Style.
Architect-sculptor Savin is the son of self-taught organic architect Jacques Couëlle.
Recommissioning local silos is an eco-friendly housing option.
Salvaged wood paneling inspiration...
Reclaimed wood works well in bathrooms. Either as paneling, backspashes, vanity, flooring or ceiling.
If you do not have enough salvaged wood to build a cabin. Build a salvaged wood shed.
Old wood from barns, farmhouses, factories, even snow fence, is potential siding for a new home.
A rising sea level and hurricane-resistant design choice.
Boathouses have been around almost as long as boats.
Cob Fireplace Inspiration...
New building-integrated photovoltaics or BIPVs blend almost seamlessly with traditional roofing materials.
Currently the majority of wood stoves in use deliver only 40 to 50 percent of the energy potential of the wood. This is highly wasteful. But on a bright note, many of the prototype models entered into the Wood Stove Decathlon squeezed out more than 90 percent of the wood's energy potential and burn much cleaner than older stoves. One of the keys is complete combustion...
Sand, clay and hay. Mix it with your hands, your feet or a Bobcat. Sculpt in place.
There are cob homes in the UK that are a thousand years old. In Jericho, by the Jordan River, a cob building still stands that was built 10,000 years ago.

Earthy and warm, the inside of cob homes exude an incomparable charm.
Cobbing is making a resurgence. Form clay, sand, water and straw into lumps (or cobs) and create an 'anyform' house.
Vertical herb garden inspiration.
Creating furniture from books... Due to the glue that binds books along their spine, most paper recyclers will not take books for recycling unless the cover and glue is removed.
Instead of putting those branches, leaves and grass clippings in bags by the curbside...build a hugel bed.

Since Neolithic times we have fenced our sheep and vegetables in this easy to make (albeit time consuming) wooden fence.
The earth-house uses the ground as an insulating blanket that efficiently protects it from temperature extremes, wind, rain and extreme weather events.
Underground homes with a modern bent. A large thermal mass stabilizes inside temperatures, giving you free heat in the winter, free cooling in the summer.
For those in northern, high altitude or windy climates who wish to grow their food year round. Take advantage of the insulating properties of the Earth.
Ingenious ways to stack firewood.
The rocket mass heater works on similar properties as a masonry heater. A fast, high heat and oxygen-fed fire burn up the volatile gases and particulates, leaving very little pollution, and turn almost every ounce of wood fuel into energy.
Masonry heaters can incorporate cook stoves. And cook stoves can act as masonry heaters for small homes.
Bake ovens can be either white (the fire is in another box, usually below the oven) or black (the fire is in the same compartment as the food being cooked).
Heat, not pollution. The cleanest burning wood stoves have been around for centuries, yet have taken a backseat to metal wood stoves and other polluting energy sources for far too long. Time for a revival!
If you live in a cool climate, you might as well investigate adding a masonry heater along side your pizza oven. Or at least understanding them so that you might take advantage of exhaust heat.
Although lots of mass and beautiful, most heat goes straight up the flue. Build a conventional fireplace for beauty alone, build a masonry fireplace for heat.
Somewhere around 30 million steel shipping containers exist today. 8 feet wide by 8.5 feet high, and either 20 or 40 feet long, they have been the globally standardized transportation module since 1956.
Call them bug condos, insect hotels, insect habitats, wildlife stacks, insect boxes, insect houses, insect walls, wild bee walls, insect accommodation, wild bee houses, solitary bee walls or wild bienenhaus. Wildlife habitat is rapidly disappearing. Building beneficial insects a special habitat will help your garden and the bugs.
Examples of pure cob and adobe, and refractory castable cement over bricks.
Recycle some old bricks...into an oven.
Build an outdoor oven with local stone and DIY skills for a few hundred dollars. Or, buy an oven kit and have it veneered for a few thousand.
Willow cuttings called 'withies' easily root in either water or moist soil. Plant in late winter and come July you'll have a privacy screen.

Beta 185.18.10: Powermizer FINALLY (mostly) working
Hi all.
I've tried the current Beta 185.18.10 and I really can't believe it. Powermizer is working on a Clevo M570 RU notebook (Geforce 8800M GTX) and throtteling the GPU as expected, meaning 4 total performance status of which all are reached by demand. Normal GUI work makes it run at the lowest level 0, demanding work immediatly makes the GPU run at maximum performance.
Well, only sometimes powermizer doesnt throttle up the card properly making it stay in lowest level even for demanding tasks. So the throtteling code doesn't seem to be perfect yet. Its strange that launching yet another demanding task (even glxgears is enough) will fire up the card to lvl 4, until the driver "thinks" composite is not demanding enough for this level and throttles down the GPU again, making composite run a bit sluggish. Nevermind, even though this is some great success.
So if this version remains stable for a few more days I'm finally ready to admit that I'm really satisfied with NVIDIA Linux support.
Congratulations NVIDIA developers.

44 year old woman | Florence, KY, USA | Seeking men 37-48 within 50 miles
My optomism is wearing thin
I am outgoing, kind, positive, hardworking, and fun. I am looking for someone that is honest and not interest in playing games. I like children, but don't have any of my own. Yes I know this is rare for an attractive and successful women. It is not what I had planned for my life, but it is how I ended up. I wouldn't mind dating someone with children as long as they communicate well with their child's mother. Baby Mama Drama puts a lot of stress on a relationship. If you don't have kids that is fine too. My passion is boating and anything on the water. I am easy going, but will not play games. I am not afraid to walk away if things seem shady. If you only want to be my friend that is fine too. Well, I wrote the above six months ago and it took me this long to finally join. Most of my life I have been in a relationship until the last couple of years. I tried not jumping into another relationship and tried to spend some time figuring out what I really want. My favorite time of the years is summer. I love boating and hanging out in my pool. I don't like cold weather at all. I dream of living on a beach one day. My favorite thing to do is be out on the water socializing with other boaters. I would like to meet someone that would like to spend time on the water. I love spending time with my parents. My step dad teaches me everything. I have learned that I want to be able to do anything on my own and not have to depend on anyone. I am definitely not a helpless girl, but don't want a helpless guy either. I love working on construction projects and remolding. I hope to own several rental properties in the future and flip houses for a living. In the mean time, I will continue to be responsible and stay at my dependable job. I would like to find someone that is handy, easy going, affectionate, talkative, likes to socialize, dance, and able to relax and have a few drinks.

Comment posted New local leader, Roddy McCuish, says SNP has moved from protest to progress by Robert Wakeham.
Gus – that's nonsense – and I was born in England; just because someone is an SNP supporter doesn't mean to say they're 'vile anti English'. You seem to suffer from the party political polarisation that influences some of the comment on this website, to everyone's disadvantage.
Robert Wakeham also commented
- If everyone ignored them they might just evaporate.
- Good points, Ken, but I have to admit to a certain nostalgia for the old days of Argyll County council when everyone appeared to stand solely on their own merits and for their personal beliefs, rather than attaching themselves to a political party (or even, these days, occasionally serially re-attaching themselves to more than one party) I'm sure some of them were true-blue Conservative, but they didn't trade on it and I can remember the surprise when a Kintyre councillor announced publicly that he was a Labour man, and I think this was the first time party politics got much attention.
I always thought – however naively – that local government was all the better for not having the party poltical baggage of central government. There was less temptation to spend time on national issues rather than concentrating on matters of real local concern.
- Ah – party politics – white as the driven snow!
- Is that Paddy Power, Neil?

- Greece: Peston says 'ECB expected to continue to refuse to rescue Greek banks'
Karl – the Greek attitude to the tax man is surely influenced by their sleazy governments down the years – bloated administrations devoted to lining the pockets of politicians and 'fat cats', and dispensing largesse to the faithful in the form of jobs.
Hopefully the current traumas – with undoubtedly worse to come – will be enough to trigger government reform (in or out of the Euro / EU) and a more responsible attitude to taxation.
Your anti-Greek diatribe is inaccurate and unfair – your postings are always worth reading, but take care you're not joining the ranks of the 'head-bangers'.
- Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh on Daesh: 'If we are to make real progress tackling extremism we must stop it at source – and call it what it is'
Plenty of the 'pious faithful' down the years have been murderous headbangers, and I don't think you can call this lot 'infidels' – they've got faith alright, of the vile variety.
I'd put my money on the moniker 'So-called 'Islamic State".
- McGrigor calls on RMT to stop Friday strike against Calmac amidst fears for vital tourism economy
Caledonian Steam Packet Ltd + David MacBrayne Ltd – and until recent years the two separate companies were reflected in the different unions representing Calmac staff in their historic operating areas.
- Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh on Daesh: 'If we are to make real progress tackling extremism we must stop it at source – and call it what it is'
Tasmina Ahmed-Sheikh is absolutely correct in stating that 'you can't defeat an existential threat with bombs and high-tech surveillance', but in her desperation to disassociate the Muslims in this country from the extremist mindset, she can join Khalid al-Haj Salih et al in claiming that IS aka ISIL aka ISIS is categorically not Islamic until the cows come home – but this is fantasy.
The name DAESH tells you that, if it's supposed to be an acronym for 'Al-Dawla Al-Islamiya fi al-Iraq wa'al Sham (sic) it quite clearly isn't – it would be DIIS, but Khaled al-Haj Salih has conveniently avoided incorporating the 'I's of Islamiya & Iraq. I wonder why? – and so, I think, will any 16 year-old trawling the internet in their bedroom.
But I don't wonder why the BBC has refused to adopt this daft and blatantly inaccurate acronym.
Tasmina would be better to emphasise that – rather than Muslims – anyone espousing this cause is in fact Mozlem ('one who is evil and unjust').
Renaming the extremists 'Daesh' will not work at all – and if Tasmina is correct in stating that 'the majority of Arabic speakers in the Middle East now use 'Daesh', I wonder why – unless it's a way of disassociating themselves, in their own minds, from this tide of murderous fanatics.
- Greece: Peston says 'ECB expected to continue to refuse to rescue Greek banks'
A touch smug for a Brit, Karl – what do you think those massive PFI hospital building contracts that have our NHS bleeding to death were all about?
Gordon Brown's initiative to keep major public capital expenditure 'off the books', and to hell with the cost to our children & grandchildren.
It's called 'cooking the books' and it's alive & well in this country too – remember the civil disobedience campaign that eventually forced the government to 'buy back' the Skye bridge from the Colombian investors who were making a mint out of it?

At El Rincon de Claudia Vilte, named after a singer from Salta, the crowd is fairly cosmopolitan, but on the small stage of this intimate peña it's pure Jujeño, with pan pipes, drums, and guitars as well as the occasional storytelling session with tales about local traditions and happenings.

Guys, I've stayed at the hostel last week and my experience there was awfull!!! The rooms are located at the back of the restaurant and since the hot water is shared with the restaurant, there is no Hot water for the passengers that are spending the night there... The music is awfully loud and the shows usually lasts until 3am, and between us, Claudia's singing sucks, there's another woman that sings that makes her look a little bit better. Forget
about the good manners of the host, and don't even dream og having your room clean before your arrival!!!... When I woke up after my only night there I found woman underwear, that of course were not mine, inside MY BED!!!!!...they didn't even change the sheets!!!!!!.. My recommendation for you all is to stay as far away as you can from that place!!! Plus, they charge you 10 pesos to see the show, apart from the money you spend on dinning there...ridiculous!!
No Thanks

Mason claims that, "based on privileged communications between Casey Marie Anthony and her Counsel, Counsel reasonably believes that Ms. Anthony is not competent to aid and assist in her own defense and is incompetent to proceed," according to court documents.
If Anthony had been deemed incompetent, it could have halted the trial. Anthony could face the death penalty if convicted of first degree murder.
The judge told the court before the jury took their seats that three state psychologists spent Saturday and Sunday evaluating the 25-year-old Anthony.
"The court will find that the defendant is competent to continue to proceed. Those reports will be filed but pursuant to law those reports will remain under seal," Perry said.
Evidence photos in Casey Anthony murder trial
Experts said that Anthony's defense attorneys could certainly be concerned for her well being and have an ethical duty to report their concerns, but an incompetency ruling could also serve a strategic purpose.
"To the extent that it is strategic, it stops trial. She goes to a locked mental facility until such time as she's deemed competent again, if that happens," said Michael Seigel, a law professor at the University of Florida's Levin College of Law. "The trial starts all over again, they could change their defense strategy and the prosecution's case is likely to be weaker."
The prosecution's case gets weaker as time progresses and memories fade, experts said. A halt to the trial could allow the defense to move away from their shocking opening statements that claimed that Caylee drowned and George Anthony, Casey Anthony's father, helped dispose of the toddler's body. The defense also told jurors that Casey Anthony hid the child's death out of fear of her father who they claim sexually abused her as a child.
George Anthony has denied those accusations.
The motion to determine Anthony's competency could serve appellate purposes, too, if she is found guilty and appeals her sentence. The adequacy of the tests could come up on appeal, experts said.
The court documents reveal little about what Anthony told her lawyers. On Saturday, there were private meetings in Judge Perry's chambers with the defense and prosecution. At one point, Anthony left the meeting and was seen crying.
"Maybe he [Judge Perry] was given some information outside of the motion that he went ahead to grant the order…he could have said no and the defense could have been found in contempt," said Mary Anne Franks, law professor at the University of Miami School of Law.
Legal experts told ABC News that competency hearings are typically done at the start of a trial.
"Normally you would do this before you start a trial or maybe they were able to say that something has happened in the last few weeks that makes her no longer fit to stand trial," said Mary Anne Franks, law professor at the University of Miami School of Law.
This morning, Anthony smiled in court and was busy reading materials along with her lawyers. During the trial, Anthony has appeared emotional at times. On the day pictures of Caylee's skull was shown, Anthony became ill and an early recess was called. Last week, she was extremely emotional watching her brother, Lee Anthony, cry on the witness stand.
The request for competency exams by Anthony's own lawyer raises the question whether they are considering an insanity defense. Legal experts caution that there is a difference between insanity and competency.
"Insanity has to do with a person's ability to understand right and wrong at the time of the offense, whereas competency has to do with understanding the nature of the charges and what the proceedings mean," said Franks.
Psychologists Determine That Casey Anthony Is Competent to Proceed With Murder Trial
Legal experts said that in order for Anthony to use an insanity defense, there would have to be a mistrial first.
Another reason for the competency hearings could be that the defense is still considering putting Anthony on the witness stand.
"The competency has to be for generally the process as a whole. I suppose it's possible that now they're nearing the time that she could take the stand and they're thinking more seriously about if they're going to put her on the stand, if she's able to withstand that," Franks said.
Franks also said that this is one of the few high profile cases of a mother accused of murdering her child where some form of an insanity defense has not been used.
Anthony and her defense team claim that Caylee accidentally drowned in the family pool on June 16, 2008, 31 days before she was reported missing. The prosecution claims the Florida mother drugged and murdered her daughter.
This morning the defense focused on the cell phone records pulled by law enforcement and the use of a cadaver dog to examine Casey Anthony's car.

Seahawks Improve to 9-1, Play Most Complete Game of the Season in Beating Atlanta 33-10
The Seattle Seahawks retain the best record in the NFC with their win Sunday in Georgia.
The Seattle Seahawks retain the best record in the NFC with their win Sunday in Georgia.
The atmosphere at Century Link field was electric on Sunday as the Seattle Seahawks returned home to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Seattle has
This was the questioned posed by stalwart Seattle sports scribe Art Thiel.
Seattle hits the top spot in one poll, and remains a top five team in most of the other major rankings.
He was one of the NFL's most distinctive coaches, and he was the first New Orleans Saints head coach to last more than two years with the team. Oail Andrew "Bum" Phillips passed away yesterday at the age of 90.
During the third quarter of last night's Seattle 34-22 victory over the Cardinals in Arizona, Seahawks running back was none to pleased when offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell called for a pass play on third down and goal to go.
According to Forbes Magazine, the Seattle quarterback is better liked than Peyton Manning, Robert Griffin III, Andrew Luck, Troy Polamalu and Victor Cruz.
The term "redskins" is so offensive to members of the Oneida Indian Nation that it's now omitting the word from official communications.
After six weeks, there are only two undefeated teams left in the NFL. The Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs have emerged as the best two teams in the league. But which of them is the better team?
The Seattle Seahawks bested the Tennessee Titans to advance their regular season record to 5-1 and chalk up their 11th straight win at home. The win yesterday didn't come without some close calls in what ended up being a bizarre game that found Seahawk
Adrian Peterson's two-year-old son has died from the injuries allegedly suffered at the hand of 27-year-old Joseph Patterson.
Mike Munchak says that the Titans will prepare as best they can for the din of noise they will have to deal with this Sunday at Centurylink Field.

WEBSITE OF THE DAY – hotels.tv
It's one of those things that must've happened to everybody: you check yourself into a swanky hotel only to find out it's a bit of a hole.
Five stars doesn't necessarily mean you're going to get the best standards – hotels get stars for things like potted plants in reception, a kettle in your room and a Corby Trouser Press bolted to the wall. None of these is particularly useful for a romantic break. Unless you're really kinky…
So, wouldn't it be great if you could actually see what the hotel looked like before booking – a short independently filmed video review would be ideal.
The guys at hotel.tv have done just that.
The list of hotels and destination cities is far from huge, but it does cover most of the major holiday hotspots around the globe. Also, they're slowly building up their database, and judging by what we've seen already, they've got pretty good taste.
If you have a website that you want to tell us about email us via the feedback form.

PRESCOTT, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas State Police say four Tennessee residents were killed and an infant and three others were injured in a crash on Interstate 30.
Officials say the 7:30 a.m. Monday crash occurred when an eastbound SUV drifted into the median and rolled, ejecting seven people.
The dead include 46-year-old Hortencia Rivera, 38-year-old Maria Rios, 50-year-old Francisco Pena, all of Nashville, Tenn., and 69-year-old Floretina Blanco of Antioch, Tenn. The injured include a 2-month-old infant and children ages 9 and 13. Also hurt was 29-year-old Irene Pena of Antioch, who the police report says was driving the vehicle.
The report says none of the people killed were wearing seat belts.

A few years ago, our friend Scott Heimendinger of Seattle Food Geek created a $75 DIY sous vide machine and posted the instructions on his blog. It was difficult to make, but over 1,000 people did it! That's how much us home cooks want to sous vide in our own kitchens. In recent years, a few companies have marketed sous vide cooking devices, but the market is missing a good-looking, affordable, high-quality circulator for use at home. Today, Scott and his team launched a Kickstarter for the Sansaire sous vide circulator.
Sansaire is only $199 and super easy to use! Just turn the ring to set the temperature. Sansaire uses a very accurate thermometer and a micro controller to maintain the correct temperature within a fraction of a degree. The Sansaire also circulates the water to even out hot and cold spots. The motor circulates water in up to a six gallon bath, but it is so quiet you can barely hear it running. When you're ready to eat, just remove your food from the water bath. If you'd like, finish it off with a quick sear. They're ready to start full-scale production, but they can't do it without our help. Please share the video below and help back them on Kickstarter here so that sous vide lovers can have this amazing product in their kitchens.

I lost all respect for this guy when he stood on a stage at Call of Duty XP and announced "NO MORE LAST STAND!" to a screaming crowd of approval when he damn well knew Final Stand, which is much worse, was going to be kept in the game. Not to mention all the other lies he's fed the community since CoD4.
Was Last Stand taken out?
Bowling doing the ol' hover hand in that one picture. So beta!
Creative Strategist?, give me a break, its fancy talk for community manager. So nobody should really care about him leaving.
@Milkman: That is the most brilliant comment I have ever seen in my time at Giant Bomb. Bravo sir, bravo.

Was Last Stand taken out?
Yeah, but they kept in Final stand (which is the Death Streak version). So yeah he wasn't exactly lying, but he wasn't telling the truth either... so... yeah,
Hopefully BLOPS2 FLOPS. Yeah, I'm witty!
If I felt that him leaving might result in some changes to call of duty to make it feel at least a little fresh again then I would be happy but I know this means nothing.

@Tamaster92 said:That photo is proof of winning.
Winning does not involve hover hands.
They never fail to make me chuckle though.
so what are the odds he ends up at respawn?
@msavo said:
I wonder if he asked if it was ok for him to touch them before he did the hover hands.
Enjoying all of these "meh I don't care but here's me commenting anyway because I'm Internet k00l and don't have anything better to do".
I only remember this guy because of how much he would pander as a community manager to the "hardcore". Didn't he have a feud with some YouTube troll, where he posted team killing videos and Bowling got him banned or something along those lines? Funny Internet/world.
Maybe this has something to do with on-going legal war between Activision and Respawn (obvious observation). I can only imagine it was a pretty easy job all things considered.
Good point.
Well there was no point in him joining Respawn until they had something to talk about.
So tomorrow he gets hired by Respawn?
@rebgav said:
@SaturdayNightSpecials said:
Remember the "one shot center-mass" thing?
He sure changed his tone since then.
Wasn't that Noah Heller? Or are you talking about the angry blog post?
Yeah, the blog post.
I guess he was scared into silence by West and Zampella being fired. Which might have cost him a job at Respawn today, though maybe EA itself could use him.
Good luck to him and his future endeavors.
He obviously wasn't very good at his job.
I cant stress his hover hands enough people.
@Mystyr_E: He's one of few major names that stayed with Infinity Ward beyond the shit-fan incident. I think it's a pretty big deal that he's leaving, and it's perhaps an even bigger deal if we find out where he's going.
Respawn needs a mod for their message boards.
@TheHumanDove said:
I cant stress his hover hands enough people.
@YukoAsho said:
So tomorrow he gets hired by Respawn?
Reading the headline I instantly thought "Okay, so Respawn is announcing their game at E3 and he needs two months to get settled into the company before he's out their pitching the game. Got it."
He will open 'Robert's Bowling' down the street.
Yes, how totally "unexpected" of him, and not at all predictable.
So this guy was the visible scab who wasn't even a developer but who seemed to convey the message "hey, it's still great to work here at IW, not EVERYBODY has left!". And now he leaves.
@FritzDude: God damn I love me some word play, well done sir.

Is Creative Strategist (Community Manager) sort of like how Subway call their employees Sandwich Artists? fourzerotwo always struck me as either incredibly ignorant of the PC platform or he was being told what to say by Activision.
It IS Activision we're talking about. My guess is they scripted him like crazy. He always seemed like a nice guy who had no control over what he said in public. I wish him luck. Maybe he has a position at Respawn? MAYBE?
But seriously, maybe.
He had a tough job. I can see how he could get demotivated by higher-ups insisting on keeping stuff in the game that he knew the fans wouldn't like and the subsequent hate directed at him personally. The CoD community isn't the most considerate and it's quite a feat to keep your sanity for 6 years being the face of a game that so many people love to hate. Maybe he's smart to leave now before the annual milking really starts to ruin the CoD franchise.

Hey, it takes a real artist to make a sandwich like that.
respawn got a new person?
Maybe he finally got paid his bonus from MW2, so it was time to move on.
You don't touch the dancers!
I cant stress his hover hands enough people.
I hope he ends up working somewhere he enjoys. I can only imagine working as a community manager for Infinity Ward and dealing with all the shit that they get.

Tree::Persist::Base - The base class for the Tree persistence plugin hierarchy
This provides a useful baseclass for all the Tree::Persist plugins.
These are the parameters provided for by this class. These are in addition to whatever parameters the child class may use.
This will be the initial setting for the autocommit value.
(Please see
autocommit() for more info.)
This is the class that will be used to bless the nodes into, unless the datastore specifies otherwise. It will default to 'Tree'.
This is the constructor.
%opts is the set of parameters described in Tree::Persist.
If called without any parameters, this will return the current autocommit setting. If called with a parameter, it will set the autocommit flag to the truth value of the parameter, then return the old setting.
Autocommit, if turned on, will write any changes made to the tree directly to the datastore. If it's off, you will have to explicitly issue a commit.
NOTE: If you turn autocommit off, then back on, it will not issue a commit until the next change occurs. At that time, it will commit all changes that have occurred since the last commit.
If any changes are queued up, this will write them to the database. If there are no changes, this is a no-op.
If there are any changes queued up, this will discard those changes and reload the tree from the datastore. If there are no changes, this is a no-op.
This will return the tree that is being persisted.
Please see the relevant section of Tree::Persist.

You've already said Maybe. If you've changed your mind, let us know. If you say Yes, we'll anonymously find out if the feeling is mutual. You have nothing to lose!
You both said YES! The feeling is mutual. Now the rest is up to you! Say Hi and get the conversation started.
I am the kind of guy who takes my kids to Mexico and goes on eco-tourism activities like snorkeling in a cenote or zip lining with them. I love exploring nature through sports like skiing or sea kayaking. I love to travel with friends too. Most recently I went to Colorado on a week long ski trip with some of my old school friends of 20+ years. Even though I take my job pretty seriously, I spend a lot of time planning for the next fun adventure. I would love to find someone who likes the outdoors, travel and hopefully integrating both.
I was born in Canada and I have lived overseas. I think that being able to travel and connect with people is a strength. My friends have told me that I am fun to travel with because I like to strike up conversations with folks anywhere.

Publisher's Description
What do you do when you encounter someone who isn't like you? How do you feel? What goes on inside you? How do you relate to him or her? These are the kinds of questions we want to explore in this book. Few things are more basic to life than expressing love and respect for people who look, think, believe, act, and see differently than we do. We want to adapt to the barrage of cultures around us while still remaining true to ourselves. We want to let the world change us so that we can be part of changing the world. And we want to move from the desire to love across the chasm of cultural difference to the ability to express our love for people of difference. Relating lovingly to our fellow human beings is central to what it means to be human. And when it comes down to it, Christian ministry at its core is interacting with all kinds of people in ways that give them glimpses of Jesus in us.
The billions of us sharing planet Earth together have so much in common. We're all born. We all die. We're all created in the image of God. We eat, sleep, persevere, and care for our young. We long for meaning and purpose, and we develop societies with those around us. But the way we go about the many things we have in common is deeply rooted in our unique personalities and cultures. So although we have so much in common, we have as much or more about us that's different.
Author Bio
"In an era of drive-by short-term missions, selfish service projects, and ugly Americans, David Livermore brings reconstruction. He does not merely suggest cultural sensitivity; he helps us deconstruct and build something new--a pathway to cultural intelligence that can guide us to be citizens of the kingdom of God while being proactively engaged as neighbors in the world."--Mark Oestreicher, president, Youth Specialties
"In our increasingly interconnected, multicultural world, the need for cultural understanding has never been greater. Cultural Intelligence is an essential, foundational resource for anyone who desires to effectively interact across cultures--whether traveling internationally, visiting urban centers, or becoming involved in a local school system. Read this book! It will enable you to understand your own culture and the lens through which you see all other cultures. And it will equip you to live in our globalized world."--Paul Borthwick, author of How to Be a World-Class Christian
"Comprehensive and accessible, this book clearly details the cultural intelligence model for multicultural ministry. In this book, David Livermore addresses both conceptual and practical issues on cultural intelligence. He has expanded the ideas of multiculturalism to include not only national cultures but also organizational and generational subcultures. This book is an ideal text and a valuable resource for building the core skills of cultural intelligence in individuals and organizations."--Soon Ang, executive director, Center for Leadership and Cultural Intelligence, Nanyang Business School, Singapore
"Written for anyone who is serious about ministry, this book explains why cultural intelligence is essential and what one must do to develop and employ it in the practice of ministry."--Sherwood Lingenfelter, author of Ministering Cross-Culturally

I keep getting error like this on page:

Between the plugins and theme I used, only user role editor is using is_role. Could you give me some direction on why this happened? I did not try to add any new role, however, I rename the role name using a function method (for example: Administrator -> Owner).
Any idea where this error comes from and how to fix it?

I've done several adaptations using body caps. These include a 50mm macro lens from a 35mm Mamiya ZE, and lenses in shutters from old Ansco and Kodak folders; these are often around 100-140mm in focal length. I have access to a drill press so I was able to cut the exact size hole for each lens.
EDIT: The way I mounted the 50mm macro lens was by drilling holes in both the Mamiya RB body cap and the rear cap for the macro lens, and then gluing both caps together. The macro lens was simply mounted on the lens cap. It did cover 6x7 with no problems at macro range.

Steve Wojciechowski greets Marquette players after being named coach of the Golden Eagles men's basketball program last week in Milwaukee.
- Filed Under
Marquette University's basketball program is about to go through significant change with new coach Steve Wojciechowski.
By bringing in someone from one of the most-storied programs in the country, Marquette's fan base will have high expectations for Coach "Wojo" to guide his program to national prominence just like the Wisconsin Badgers did this year.
Remaining Golden Eagles players will see new ways of doing things and will have to adjust.
The overall initial reaction to former coach Buzz Williams leaving was one of surprise and disbelief. It is true, after just about every season of his Marquette tenure there was the possibility of Williams moving on. However, because of this year's mediocre record, it didn't seem this would be the year. Nonetheless, recruits are determining if they want to give the new regime a chance.
When I was at Marquette, there was talk of coach Hank Raymonds leaving prior to his scheduled 1983 end-of-the-season retirement. That meant assistant coach Rick Majerus would take over earlier than expected. Because Majerus' style was more intense, several teammates expressed their discontent with the potential sudden change and that they needed a whole summer to get used to having Majerus as the new head coach.
People embrace change in different ways. There are those who abhor change and resist it at all costs. There are also those who consistently look to demolish routines, because they see change as an opportunity for growth.
I found a story about the idiosyncrasies of doing something the same way it's always been done.
"Why do you cut off the ends of a roast before cooking it?" a husband asked his wife. "Because my mother did it that way," she responded with a smile.
Curious, the husband called his wife's mother and asked her the same question. When she gave an identical answer, he called his wife's grandmother. The moment the elderly matron heard the question, she laughed and said, "I don't know why they cut off the ends of the roast, but I did it that way because a full roast wouldn't fit into my pan."
Most habits or trends are initiated to serve a purpose. Eventually, even the best-laid plans can lose their usefulness. Wise leadership knows when changes and innovation are necessary.
When escorting his team on a 2013 summer exhibition trip to Canada, Wisconsin basketball coach Bo Ryan realized his group had the potential to accomplish something special. Therefore, he felt he had to adjust his approach to get the most out of them.
What things would you like to change? Are there roadblocks preventing progress? How can these obstacles be overcome?
Change is important, but it's also important to cling to core values.
For a leader, it's critical to understand that without change, growth is impossible.
Strategic planning helps unify the team and forge ahead toward collective goals. Therefore, whether alone or in a group, embrace change and then you can answer "yes" when asked: "Are you on board?"

Album Rating: 3.0That means you didn't get to the best parts man. Minus the closer/title track the last like 5 songs are the best.
@Atari, damn but I mean I might listen more considering I sit on the computer doing homework or chilling. But you've had more years of listening to music haha.
Yeah toxin, i think i'll D/L it for the long ass drive today and give it all a listen.
Album Rating: 3.0Sweet have fun, not a huge fan of the title track but it's a kickass driving tune imo
Yup lol 7 to 8 hours i'll be able to catch up on music. Still getting other stuff for listens though. Prob some Siouxsie and
the Banshees since im writing up reviews for 2 of their albums.
Album Rating: 3.0never heard of them but sounds like a blast.
7-8 hour road trip huh? not gonna lie, can't say it sounds like fun, even with awesome music haha.
lol its gonna be dumb, especially when i hit the dallas area lol. SATB are old 80's post rock. Its good stuff.
Album Rating: 3.0haha, hope the occasion makes up for the road trip then
Same here, i'll have the weekend at least. I have to wait to leave til early this morning due to some last minute work crap.
Album Rating: 4.0Their 2 post hiatus albums have gotten solid playings in my car.
Album Rating: 3.5This didn't have the replay value of their previous one.
Album Rating: 4.0I like both equally.
Yeah ive added this to my ipod and seeing if i can dig up the older albums. Might still have them on here.
Album Rating: 3.5this is kinda like, an average release, the others had a bit more enjoyment
Honorable mention to SowingSeason for getting me addicted to this album.
Album Rating: 3.0I think the uptempo tracks on WYTTSY are infinitely better than those on here. They just feel so fresh and vital, whereas on here it's the slower songs that are better.
The exception is 'Awakening' which would fit perfectly on WYTTSY
"Atari, damn but I mean I might listen more considering I sit on the computer doing homework or chilling. But you've had more years of listening to music haha"
I really doubt that lol I listen to music from 8:30 to 5 monday throuth friday then i get off work and go look for albums to listen to on spotify while i wait for my fiance to get home. The only time i'm not listening to music is if we're watching a movie/TV or i'm not home or at work.
Digging: Tigers on Trains - Grandfather
Album Rating: 3.0oh that's way more than 40 hours/ week then.
I probably listen ~4-10 hours on the weekdays depending on the day and there's an even greater fluctuation on the weekends depending on if I have anything going on. Either way it adds up to more than 40 hours/week haha.
yeah the 40 hours a week that's like the minimum lol. As far as me having more ratings, yes i'm older but you must listen to the albums like 20 times before rating them.
Album Rating: 3.0Where'd you get that impression from? I hardly ever listen to anything more than 3x and a fair share of my ratings are from stuff I heard once and would never be able to listen to again more than once (a lot of 2.5s and lower). But stuff that I like I listen to a lot haha.
i don't know you were just surprised that i have over 1,000 ratings so I figure maybe you give albums more time to digest than me. For me it just depends on the album sometimes i'll know i like it after like 2 listens and sometimes it takes more time to sink in. I actually used to have over 1,500 ratings

Sally Hogshead has written a new book, How the World Sees You that examines the role of personality in leadership.
The UpTake: Knowing how the world sees you—whether that's as a passionate founder or someone who quietly listens to clients' concerns—is crucial to your company's success.
A s an entrepreneur, you're often the face of your company, and your ability to capture attention, to fascinate others—clients, employees, strategic partners, influencers—can make or break a business. Every time you communicate, you're doing one of two things:
1. You're adding value …
2. You're taking up space.
If you're taking up space, you're in trouble. You're not contributing. You're not building connections—which means you're turning people off.
In my new book, How the World Sees You, I give you the steps to add value, instead of taking up space. Once you know what makes you valuable to others, you're more authentic and confident, and more likely to make a positive impression. So ask yourself … are you losing business (or failing to gain new business altogether) because you're just taking up space?
The more value you add, the less you have to compete on price, and the less likely you are to become a commodity.
Your personality adds value in a very specific way. There are seven different ways to add value, and communicate so that others want to listen and take action:
Here they are:
1. If you fascinate with passion, like me, you speak the language of relationship.
2. If you speak the language of confidence, you use power to lead with authority.
3. Mystique thinks through decisions carefully and speaks the language of listening.
4. Innovation will surprise your customers with creativity and bold ideas.
5. Trust personalities are counted on for their loyalty and stability.
6. You might use alert, the language of details, if you watch the details carefully.

Arizona Diamondbacks
D-backs release Brad Bergesen
The Arizona Diamondbacks have decided to part ways with pitcher Brad Bergesen.
According to MLB on Fox reporter Ken Rosenthal, the D-backs and Bergesen came to an agreement to allow the right handed pitcher to enter free agnecy in order to sign a one-year deal with Japan's Chunichi Dragons.

After three seasons with the Baltimore Orioles, the 27-year-old right hander was claimed off waivers by Arizona in 2012. But after spending most of the 2012 season in the minor leagues, the D-backs decided to let Bergesen go ahead of the Nov. 30 non-tender deadline.
He would have been arbitration eligible for a second straight season and had been a non-tender candidate with a projected salary of $1 million.
Bergesen pitched 29.2 innings for the Diamondbacks this past season and posted a 3.64 ERA with 18 strikeouts and seven walks.
