Author Tom Geller demonstrates how to create and publish a complete web site with the powerful tools in Acquia's hosted service, Drupal Gardens. The course shows how to leverage the pre-built page layouts and add custom styling using the ThemeBuilder tool; integrate rich site features, such as surveys, user ratings, and media galleries; and push content to Twitter and Facebook. The course also covers transitioning from a Drupal Gardens site to a self-hosted Drupal site. Exercise files are included with the course.
As we get further into building our site, we're giving our users more and more freedom to affect what's on it. There is one interactive feature that's become really popular over the last few years, as is evident from the number of like and +1 buttons you see everywhere-- that is, the ability to rate content. In Drupal Gardens that's done through a system called Fivestar. You have to turn it on first, and you do that by going up to Modules and then down to Fivestar. You get there more quickly by closing the CORE group. And then scroll a little, and there it is. Enable it, go to the bottom of the page, and Save configuration.
I want to show you a little quirk about Fivestar by going back to that Module. Scroll down a little bit and click the Permissions. This is a big page, so I will search for Fivestar, and there it is. By default, only the Administrator is allowed to rate content. I am going to leave it like that for now, but if you're setting up a social site, you'll probably want to let everybody rate content, or at least authenticated users. Anyway, let's go back to our modules and take a look at Fivestar again. There is something peculiar about it.
There is no configuration setting here. And if you go up to Configuration, you'll see as you scroll through the page, there is also no configuration setting here. That's because turning on the Fivestar system is actually only evident when you add fields to content types, as you saw how to do in the video "Creating and managing content types. To show you that, I'll go up to Structure, and Content types, and Forum, and manage fields. I am going to add a new field which I will call Rating.
The field type will be Fivestar Rating-- this is where it shows up--and you see that there are a few options there. I will accept the defaults and save. On the next page, there are quite a few choices, for example, the Number of stars, whether you want to make this Public or Private or so forth. But I'll just say Save settings for now. Very good! Now let's see what that looks like when you actually go in to look at content. To do that, I will close the Overlay, then I will go to my Forums by clicking on Forum, and General discussion.
Now, earlier we had created this topic here, This is a sample forum topic. I'll click it to see what it looks like. And that's where our rating system is. Let's say that I really liked this post. I'm going to give it four stars. As you do this, it makes an average based on everybody who has voted. This is really nice. And by the way, using Views, you can sort by the five-star rating so the most popular things float to the top. Now, the way we have this set up, you can only rate the post itself; you can't rate comments.
However, you can actually change that. I am going to open up a new tab and show you, by Command+Clicking or Ctrl+Clicking on Structure, then to Content types, back to Forum again, and manage fields. Once there, I can look at Comment Fields. And as before, if we wanted, we could add a rating so that the comments actually have ratings as well. You know, I've decided I don't really want to have Fivestar Ratings on my site, so I can get rid of them very easily, simply by turning off the Fivestar Module.
I go up to Modules, go back to my Fivestar check box, uncheck it, and scroll down to the bottom, and save. Now if we go back to that original Forum topic where we had the rating, if we reload the page, you see that it simply disappears. Very easy, very clean. So you might be asking, what good do those Fivestar Ratings do for you besides showing someone how good a particular story or comment was? Well, as I mentioned earlier in the video, "Creating complex information collections with views," you can combine views with Fivestar to do some really interesting things.
That's a great way to get your users to curate your site for you, which in the end delivers better quality to everyone.

John A. Williams
John Alfred Williams (December 5, 1925- July 3, 2015) is an African-American author, journalist, and academic.
Williams was born in Jackson, Mississippi, and, after naval service in World War II, graduated in 1950 from Syracuse University. His novels, which include The Angry Ones (1960) and The Man Who Cried I Am (1967) are mainly about the black experience in white America. The Man Who Cried I Am, a fictionalized account of the life and death of Richard Wright, introduced the King Alfred Plan - a fictional CIA-led scheme supporting an international effort to eliminate people of African descent. This "plan" has since been cited as fact by some members of the Black Community and conspiracy theorists.
In the early 1980s, Williams and the composer and flautist Leslie Burrs, with the agreement of Mercer Ellington, started to collaborate on the completion of Queenie Pie, an opera by Duke Ellington that had been left unfinished at his death. The project fell through, and the opera was eventually completed by other hands.[1]
In 1970 Williams received the Syracuse University Centennial Medal for Outstanding Achievement,[2] in 1983 his novel !Click Song won the American Book Award,[3] and in 1998 his Safari West won the American Book Award too.[3] On October 16, 2011, he received a Lifetime Achievement award from the American Book Awards.[4]
In 2003, Williams performed a spoken-word piece on Transform, an album by rock band Powerman 5000. At the time, his son Adam Williams was the band's guitarist.

(Foreign language film with English subtitles)
Cuba's rich and colourful past comes vividly to life in this legendary, Oscar-nominated documentary from director Wim Wenders (Paris, Texas, Wings of Desire).
The Grammy Award–winning Buena Vista Social Club album produced by Ry Cooder, remains the biggest-selling world music album ever. It showcases the talents of a dream team of veterans from Cuban music's golden age and it introduced the rhythms of Son, Bolero and Danzón to a whole new audience, making instant international stars of Ibrahim Ferrer, Rubén González, Eliades Ochoa, Omara Portuondo and Compay Segundo.
Never a regular band, The Buena Vista Social Club had gone their separate ways after that sensational album but in this extraordinary film Wenders intimately documents Ry Cooder's return to Havana, encountering these musical legends again as they look back to the halcyon days of Cuba's music scene.

I like javascript, but I have problem with learning it :) I mean, i use it at work but I would like to know more, and I think the best way to do it is to read and understand someone else's code.
I use ASP.Net MVC and there are some great opensource projects you can use to learn new technology, like NerdDinner, Oxite or SharpArchitecture or even MS starterkits. I was trying to read frameworks like jQuery, but it's really complicated, and I don't think that it was created to learn new things from it.
Do you know any good JS projects that can help with learning javascript ?

Exhibits at the Spurlock Museum
Exhibits on now
East Meets Midwest: The Dawn of the China-Illinois Educational Exchange
For over a century, the University of Illinois has played a critical role in the promotion of educational exchange with China. UI President Edmund James (1904-1920) was a leader in the movement to open US universities to Chinese students in 1905-06, when US policy toward China was very restrictive in this area. This exhibit tells the story of how James' vision led the University of Illinois to become one of the most significant destinations for Chinese students during the early decades of the 20th century.
South Asian Seams: Quilts from India, Pakistan & Bangladesh
Quiltmaking is an integral and vital part of South Asian culture. Much the same as here in the West, quilts serve both functional and symbolic purposes. They provide warmth as well as a comfortable place to sit; and they also commemorate special occasions and tell the stories of the lives of their makers. The seams that bring together different pieces of fabric in a quilt also represent the seams that bring together this vast region—its people, its cultures, and its shared tradition of extraordinary textiles. This exhibition is made possible through funding from the Robert and Ardis James Foundation and the Nebraska Humanities Council & Nebraska Cultural Endowment.
In addition to changing focus exhibits, the Museum's Feature Galleries offer artifacts, stories, and information about the Ancient Mediterranean, Africa, Asia, Oceania, Europe, and the Americas.

At the Huskies vs. Toledo game on 11/14, NIU will also be competing in EPA's "Game Day Challenge". Colleges across the nation are competing to see who can recycle the most and waste the least at their home football games. Help lead NIU to the top by volunteering to collect recycling during the game. Remember to put all recycling in the blue bins or WM recycling bins with yellow lids. Every little bit helps. If you or your organization is interested in volunteering from 5-8pm or 8-10pm, or if you would like to help promote the event, please contact Melissa Burlingame at email@example.com.
The Game Day Challenge was great! There were a lot of volunteers, from student groups like CPW, Environmental Studies Club, and Green Paws, to fraternities and sororities like Sigma Alpha Sigma. The football fans were enthusiastic about the challenged and most were happy to learn about recycling facts.

Awkward Arrival in Venice
We're a group of 8 arriving Marco Polo airport at 1145 am on a Friday after an overnight flight from Atlanta. Our religious guesthouse in the Castello area is closed between 1-6 pm. There's presumably no way to clear the airport and get to the guesthouse by 1 to dump our bags and wash up. And we leave the next Monday morning. I believe there's no actual glassblowing demos on Murano on weekends. So I'm thinking of spending the afternoon by hiring a water taxi to take us from the airport to Murano to Burano to central Venice. We don't have all the money in the world to spend, but with 4 couples maybe it wouldn't be too outrageously expensive. Do any of you have a better idea? And does anyone know if there's a travelers' shower at the airport? The airport's online brochure mentions a spa; I've emailed them to ask if that includes a shower we could pay to use, but have gotten no answer. Thanks for any help.

Don't ever get it mistaken
I been the hardest out
I don't never need the ranking
You gotta dumb it down if you ever want a placement
And I got more sense then a muthafuckin fragrance
Confidence is key, I never lost that
Like year round schools man I'm never off track
So I'm never losing focus, They ain't opposing
They suppose to be on posters, you get it? cause they posing
Smell the roses,
Cause if you notice
You can that the truth being stretched like aerobics
They're lying, I severed ties with the pride
And through it all I seem to keep to keep my eyes on the prize
The flow cold, it's frozen boy
So if you ever tried to picture it then it would be a Polaroid
Get it polar and its photo
If you didn't get it I'm sorry your a nemwit
I'm throwing sense at em cuz they need change
The flow cold picture that that's a freeze frame
I'm MONEYDRIVEN chasing stacks in the speed lane
Chillen With my dawgs and we ticking No flea mane
I said ticking cause we finna blow up
So all the thick chickens they gon wanna show up
But you should know deer that you ain't getting no bucks
So dont try to get with it now that life's so plush
They're sleeping on me so I'm showing off
That mean im Bull dozen over anybody who's dozing off
This a wake up call to all drowsy
Im Rahim the king they need to crown me
They say never put ya eggs in one basket
But they hatchin and now it's chicks all around me
And If You looking for the truth well you found me
But I've been here the whole time you just looked around me

Discussion in 'All Languages' started by turkishspeaker, Jan 22, 2009.
Ata means father/anchestor in Turkish. Does it have any meaning in your language?
"Ata" means "father" in Slovene too.
I think atta meant 'father' in ancient Gothic? This may be behind Turkish and/or Slovene, but I'm not sure.
Atta is "father" also in Latin, Hittite.
In Romanian, the word for father is tata. Though, I don't think it is related with Turkish ata.
In Portuguese, ata can be:
- a noun meaning "minute" (of a meeting);
- a form of the present tense of the verb atar, "to tie up", "to bind";
- a form of the imperative of the same verb.
I don't think any of these is related to the Turkish word.
The Gothic form is behind the Slovene form.
Romanian word for tata could be from Serbo-Croate word for father which is tata.
It could come from any language in which childspeak 'tata' appears.
In Bulgarian the baby word is tati too, it's just what babies say, same with the am/ma sound for mother.... It's not borrowing, half the languages on the world have similar words for those things.
I am merely saying it could come from Serbo-Croatian because Romanian is exposed to this language but then again it could be an original childspeak word in Romanian and not the borrowing.
In Hebrew 'ata' means 'you' - male, singular.
In Greenlandic aataa means grandfather and ataata means father. Not quite the same word, but still interesting considering the geographical distance, I think.
And in Swedish äta means eat. (also not exactly the same, but close)
Though I doubt there is a real connection, in Judeo-Aramaic (at least Talmudic), ata means "he comes/arrives" or "he came/arrived."
"ata" is an onomatopoetic expression, which describes punishing (kids) by beating them.
A word closer to Turkish, Gothic, Greenlandic and Slavic version is "ätt" which may refer to father or (usually just) an old man. A counterpart of "tata" is Estonian "taat", which covers almost the same semantic field as "ätt".
The combination of Russian letters ата (i.e. transliterated ata) doesn't mean anything in Russian.
Or it could just come from Latin tata (a colloquial form for saying "father"). Consider it being the other way around; that Romanian influenced Serbo-Croatian.
These two work for Spanish as well:
In Czech I don't remember any meaning for "ata"
In Lithuanian
there are:
1. abbreviation fot amžiną Tau atilsį, sometimes used as a word. Meaning: a rest to You for ages (who gone to his account/leaved for a better world)
2. one of non-regular forms for "atia" (other: "ate") - meaning: so long, bye-bye...
In Japanese:
仇[ata, more often [ada]] foe, enemy
In Euskaraz/Basque aita is father.
I think "ata" must be Ural-Altaic origined, derivatives can include this word as father..
My common sense says that "Turkish 'ata'" only means something in... Turkish.
Pedantics apart, Dutch doesn't have a word that sounds like 'ata'.
Hmm... that use has survived here, in Spanish.
It's also a sufix: ata
I don't agree with SALUTON(post 15) about "ata" doesn't mean anything in Russian; do not forget the compound word ataman !
And in Russian "атец" (atiets) means father and derives from Altaic "ata".
Yes, in Tamil it means father too.
No, it means nothing in Swedish, but átta is thought to have meant 'father' in PIE, and therefore there are words for 'father' that sound more or less similar to ata in many Indo–European languages, e.g. Russian отец ([ʌ'tʲeʦ]).
It could have been the other way round as well, especially considering that atta means father also in Latin and Gottic and similar words exist in many other Indo-European languages.
That's where you get Attila the Hun? Attila is diminutive of atta in Gothic which means father.
I think, the theory (one of many) relating the name Attila to Gothic goes more like this.
In Albanian atë or ati means father.
In Standard Arabic, it means he came, as in "to come".
In Greek, ata is baby talk and means "a walk". When the mother wants to take her toddler for a walk, she usually says "πάμε άτα" (pame ata, let's go for a walk).
"Aita" means "father" in Basque (maybe nothing to do with "ata", but there you go...)
Taata is an old-fashioned word in Finnish to describe an old male person, usually the grandfather. But it is not used very much in this century...
Ata is used by Tamil speaking Rowther Muslims-descendents of the Turkish Sultanate of Madurai (1335-1378 C.E) for father.
In Ukrainian the baby word is тато (tato) it's just what babies say - The basic word is "батько", same with the мама/мa /mama-ma/ sound for mother - The basic word is "мати, матір". The military leader is "отаман" /otaman/.
And to the priest address "отче" from "отець" /otets'/.
According to some sources, the Hungarian atya (a very dignifed word for father) comes from ata.
We have both tata and tati as an affectionate title for a grandfather.
Tata is also used in addressing any unknown old man in a half joking or a bit derogatory way (depending on the tone of voice).
Still, the word ата means nothing.
Ata is not really a lexical word in Hungarian, so it doesn't mean anythying.
However, Ata is used as a relatively rare and recent nickname for the first name Attila (sometimes spelled as Atilla). This is of course not too important linguistically unless you are called Attila officially and Ata by family members, as is the case with me.
There are conflicting etymologies for "Attila"/"Atilla" circulating in Hungary; it may come from an old Turkish root "itil"/"etel" meaning "river" or indeed from the old Turkish word meaning "father" with possibly a diminutive ending.
If you switch the "t" for a palatalised version (spelled "ty" and sounding roughly like the word-initial consonant complex in "tutor" in British English) "Atya" is indeed "grandfather" or "forefather" or a term of address for a senior priest including the pope himself ("szentatya" or "holy father").
Ataata is a Greenlandic word for father.
Akkadian: atta "you (male, singular)"
Welsh: ata "towards me" (a modern form of older ataf)
In Dumagat language (Mangnah) of Luzon Island,Philippines, "Ata" means Human, In Tagalog it is "Tao", Tawo and in Panay Island it is "Ati" where the term "Ati atihan" came from.
'Ata' means 'them' in Albanian.
Ata in Dumaget means "People". Other ethnic words related to this are Ati/Ayta/Agta and Tawo(Ta-oh).
The only thing I can think of in North American English is "Atta boy!" or "Atta girl!" (always with two t's). This is something we shout to congratulate a person who has accomplished a feat (or what we believe is a feat). It is typically associated with physical activities, but it can also be said to somebody who has received good grades or got accepted into college, among other things. I'm not too aware of its origins.
The old form of father is in Hungarian is "atya". It is still used in the Lords Prayer: "Mi Atyánk, ki vagy a mennyekben ..."
The present word for father is "apa".
In English it is an abbreviation for "that a..", example: ata boy; ata girl. etc.
Thanks for clarifying the origins, roxcyn ! By the way, I think it's usually spelled with two t's, but there are might be different versions.
In Hindi, "aaTaa" means wheat flour, while "taat" (from Sanskrit "taata") is one of the words for father.
The Hungarian word "tata" means
a) a derogative form of address against old man which is not your relative.
b) The smallest great-grandsons used to call their great-grandfather "Tata" in our family.
Separate names with a comma.

"Cake Boss' Buddy Valastro whipped up this life-sized Betty White cake in honor of the Emmy winner's Friars Club roast. The vanilla cake featured buttercream and was entirely covered in chocolate; Valastro even added a silver fox to appeal to White's animal-loving sensibilities.
The 5-foot, 2-inch Betty White cake will appear on "Cake Boss" later this year. Check out a larger version of the cake below.

Myrtana, Vaduz Island. A period short before the magic barrier creation, and short after the beginning of the Orc conflict. A blacksmith's son, Lars, living a peaceful life with his father, having providing a helpful hand to one of the mysterious mages has been given a chance to depart from the Vaduz island to Khorinis with them. He may have spent his whole life on the island as a hunter or blacksmith, if not for his assistance.
There were twelve mages total, no one knew the reason of their appearance. But one thing was known; they wouldn't settle on the island for long. Fortunately Lars had remembered one of them - Corristo. They first met when blacksmith's son was a child, the magus was living in a workshop on a high hill in the center of the town. Seeing him, Lars started to ask questions finally resulting in a help offer. This started a chain of events that would finally get him offered an unexpected journey .
Hero and the world
Our hero is a young man. His father is a retired soldier of the royal army who doesn't want to kill or participate in wars anymore and his mother died soon after son's birth. Along with his father he runs a small blacksmith's workshop on a hill outside the town. Lars' father not only teaches him his profession, but also helps his son develop combat skills. He would like however, that his son found himself some peaceful job and didn't get involved in any war. As we wrote in the story section, magicians that came to the island - after completing their priority task - will invite us to cooperate and go to the Khorinis with them. And what awaits us there? An old harbor? No, the harbor as we know it from Gothic 2 will be almost unrecognizable, dozens of ship moored at its quays, sailors, merchants, knights, slaves and travelers will fill up the entire lower sector. In addition to this, whole town will be refreshed and expanded. The Khorinis island itself will also look completely different, all burnt houses, ruined structures will again become inhabited, there will be more roads on the island, a few times more people, more farms, taverns and other interesting locations. The Valley of Mines will also be different, the Old Camp basically in an ideal state. The old citadel, and collapsed mines will become full of life. There will be quite a few mines not only in the Valley of mines, but also in Khorinis. Of course not everyone will be allowed to enter the Valley, a special permission will be required. The hero will be given various tasks and orders (not only from the magicians), which will prove numerous times to be quite a challenge for the player.

Join the cream of Britain's local archaeological societies on Independent's Day, when local independent archaeological societies come together to celebrate the achievements of an outstanding local group.
This year, Independent's Day will be celebrated on Saturday 23 September, and will be held at the Whitehall Roman Villa in Northamptonshire, which has been excavated in fine style by Steve Young.
The project has now been expanded with the help of a grant from the Local Heritage Initiative to study seven parishes by field walking – the Community Landscape and Archaeological Survey Project, or CLASP. Further details can be found on their websites – www.whitehallvilla. co.uk and www.claspweb.org.uk. The villa is situated just by the Watford Gap where the Roman Watling Street, the Grand Union Canal, the London and Birmingham railway and the M1 motorway all make their way together through the Jurassic ridge – the villa was well placed.
Full details and an application form can be found on the website for the Council for Independent Archaeology at www.independents.org.uk, or ring the organiser Mike Rumbold on 01327 340855. Here is the opportunity for all local groups to see how one of our outstanding local groups operates.

Port St. Lucie gym's dance teams headed to Super Bowl of dance
PORT ST. LUCIE — Three hip-hop dance teams from a Port St. Lucie gym placed first at a recent national Universal Dance Association competition in Orlando, and two of those teams won bids to the Super Bowl of such competitions in April.
The teams were trained at Port St. Lucie's Ultimate Cheer and Dance, two won bids to the U.S. All Star Federation Dance Worlds competition — by invitation only — in Orlando.
The Senior Co-ed Hip Hop team (ages 12-18) and the International Co-ed Hip Hop Team (ages 14 and up) were both awarded bids to Dance Worlds, a competition that includes teams from around the globe. The Senior Co-Ed Hip Hop team won a partial paid bid of $3,500 toward attending the event.
The Dance Worlds competition is hosted annually by the All Star Federation and the International All Star Federation. Event producers — kind of like leagues, including the UDA and Cheersport — sponsor their best teams to compete at this event.
Sherry Gomez, who with her husband Bobby Gomez owns the facility in Port St. Lucie as well as ones in West Palm Beach and Vero Beach, said national recognition benefits everyone.
"It builds all the kids' confidence and the business because all the kids want to come cheer and dance here," Gomez said.
The Port St. Lucie gym has been open for seven years and has about 160 students, ages 4 and up, involved in cheer and hip hop.
Port St. Lucie resident Lyndsay Pickhardt, 25, a member of the International Co-Ed Hip Hop team, said each team of about 16 members meets once a week for two to three hours.
"It's so much fun. I like to be able to show my emotion in dancing without having to be pretty," she said. "The tricks are more difficult than those in a ballet routine."
The dances are choreographed by Reggie and LeeAnn McCormick of Rhode Island and are learned over a two- to three-day period.
David Torres, 19, of Port St. Lucie, said that is when the real work begins. After learning a routine, the team "spends months cleaning it up. We all have to look exactly alike."
"Synchronization is the hardest thing in hip hop," Pickhardt said. She said winners in competitions can come down to a tenth of a point.
This weekend, four dance teams and five cheer teams from Ultimate Cheer and Dance, including several from the Port St. Lucie gym, will travel to Atlanta, Ga., to compete against over 900 teams at the 2012 National Cheer and Dance Championship, hosted by Cheersport.

Recent years have seen significant worldwide investment in the bioeconomy, in both political and economic terms. Bioeconomy advisory bodies and agencies have been nominated in many of the G7 and G20 countries. However, a policy focused on domestic territories and players will hardly unleash the full potential of these public and private investments. Successful policy measures have to take account of the impact of global value-chains and markets. Due to a lack in formalised international discussion platforms, bioeconomy policy making has remained somewhat fragmented and detached from other important policy areas sharing the same goals, such as sustainability or green growth.
Who should attend?
The GBS2015 addresses government officials, advisory bodies, associations, international organisations, NGOs, scientists and other stakeholders with a political function. The highly interactive format will thus cover strategy, governance and policy design.

18,534 days.
Apparently, without even trying, I keep shocking everybody.
I didn't know living to be 50 was such a big deal — or something to be despised or ridiculed. Of course, not many former WWF, or even today's WWE, wrestlers hang around alive long enough to celebrate their 50th birthday.
I always thought, though, that the mindless misfits and useful idiots charged with commentating on the industry could at least have started and continued that whole posthumous birthday homage media and entertainment pay to all their dead criminal heroes and OD'ed drug addicts. You know, like when they say, "Che Guevara would be 125 today if he wasn't a thug and murderer who deserved to be executed…long live the revolution!" or, "If Elvis had never left the building and choked to death on his own puke while passed out on his toilet, ladies and gentlemen, he'd be 93 today." I guess this kind of thing doesn't go over too well for dead wrestlers though when the Memorial Wrestlefest held in their name craps out after the first year. Still, just a thought.
I really don't know what my problem is. I guess it's just that I really enjoy being alive. All of us have our little idiosyncrasies, you know. One of mine is getting myself out of bed each morning instead of putting the coroner through the hassle. Even with all the support, guidance, insight and marketing that's been done, I just haven't been able to pull this self-destruction thing off, get it to work right like all the others have.
This video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO1Yn2V8TCw) came close to pushing me into that absolute zero zone you need to enter to get the job done right. But by its end my urge was gone and a peacefulness came over me like I never felt before. Serious…even if the Dalai Lama had walked into the room his presence could not have deepened the tranquility I was experiencing at the moment. This excellently produced piece of footage made me feel so good to be alive — and living with my head in the present, not up my ass.
Maybe I'm just not trying hard enough. I don't know. And sad as all my failure at this is, to make matters even worse, I just can't find it in myself to even apologize. I simply have no remorse. I'm so not sorry for letting so many down. The only thing I have to offer, I suppose, is that I will keep on living. I know, it's shameful.
Alright, let's shelve the sarcasm.
For you self-thinkers, who make the effort and do the work yourselves to find out the truths about me and all other things that truly make your lives work, next week I've got another Warrior's Journal coming on line and also a substantive, meaningful post about what's going through my mind here as I look back at the now gone 18,534 days of my life. In the Warrior's Journal I will be profiling Marcus Aurelius's classic, "Meditations." I believe you'll enjoy it.
Your Founding Father of Ring Intensity and Life Motivation,
Always Believe,
Quick perspective.
This is horrible. Just tragic. Hard to believe. The whole city is emotionally devastated. It will take a long, long time for the community's mourning to end. One witness to the evil crime said, "Just makes you really think about what is truly valuable."
The mall reopens for holiday shopping tomorrow.
Thank God.
All right already…relax Warrior junkies. I'm working on your fix.
Apparently, if you aren't on or can't be found on the internet, you might not be doing well. According to expert wrestling fans with no other interests and too much wasted time on their fingers poking at their keyboards or their many other "mind-dumbing" techno gadgets, you may even be self-destructing. Even when your absence and silence is otherwise generating NO perverse gossip, police reports or obituaries, you are still pestered by kooks and goofs and nutjobs believing your lack of presence on the internet means something must obviously be wrong in your life.
It seems that many believe it is no longer reasonable that a man can live a productive, fulfilling and happy life if he does not engage the infinite void of cyberspace. No, not today, not in these 21st century times of now, now, now and more, more, more. It's simply impossible today that a man can devote his time to enjoying his own life, his own thoughts and his own company or the lives, friendship and interaction of his own family without others thinking he must be wasting his time and wasting away physically, mentally and spiritually while he's at it.
Of course, I am accustomed to disappointing people. So it is that I can only report that all is over-the-top well here in Warriorland. Healthy, happy, alive — you know, the same ol' traditional and exciting routine. Plenty of smiles and silliness — and serious attitude about using life, not squandering it. Things couldn't be more beautiful than they are. And, no, let me reassure you, my time away from your cheers, high praise and ass-kissing has NOT lowered my self-confidence or testosterone levels one single bit. In fact, I've always been rather self-sufficient in that regard, as you know if you've been coming around over the years. My huge, healthy, vigorous and potent ego is still large and loud; maybe even more so after this good rest I've had away from the nothingness of the internet. Scratch your monitor and you can even smell it. If you rub it real hard with a stiff scrub brush you can even forgo those cheap smelling pine tree and peppermint holiday candles everyone uses to aromatize the air. Tell others it's your gift to them, that you're letting them have a whiff of the real thing, the Warrior thing.
Anyway, I was chopping some wood today to burn in the 8 fireplaces we have in our humble, little Warrior abode and all of sudden I became overwhelmed by a huge rush of emotion. I was thinking about how great my life was and how sad it is that so many waste theirs on the internet trying to desperately figure out the lives of others, or worse, trying to figure out who they themselves are and what their own lives are all about to begin with. Then I almost fell into tears thinking about that recent Teddy Bear/ Mohammed incident. Just tragic how it turned out the way it did. Really scary. Sure, I agree the lady should be killed, but for insulting the good, decent and reverent name of Teddy Bear, not Mohammed. I mean, is the World mad or what? *
A dozen cords of lumber into my manly task it hit me that I needed to be more thankful and show my appreciation more often than I have been, no matter the serious risk I could potentially be subjecting myself to by engaging the lifelessness and emptiness of the internet again. So since many of you have been jones-ing for a good bit of time, and even many more of you can't make up your own minds about important things without knowing what is on my mind first (I know my absence has been the hardest on those of you who can't think for yourselves), it hit me that that for the sake of humanity, and many's sanity, I reckon I can make a little time here during the holidays to enliven your existences. After all, it is the season for jolly spirits and Always Believing, right? God, I am such a sucker for the less fortunate in body, mind and soul. I should really consider starting a church of some kind. Sometimes I really do think I missed my calling.
Ah, it's going to be a great Christmas season. Isn't it? I can already tell it is. In fact, I've noticed that the hair on back is already unusually thick here at the beginning of December. It usually never begins to mat-up before the middle of January, and the texture…unbelievably soft, more like Mink this year, not Raccoon as in years before. There's so much of it I am almost positive that after shaving off what is necessary to make coats for my girls, my wife may even get that fur coat she's been dreaming of.
Must be that steroid study I've been conducting on myself since July. I was in the Carolinas just after the Benoit incident, you know. And I stumbled across that huge extra stash of steroids he had stockpiled. Yeah, weirdly enough, I found them at one those indian souvenir shops, sitting right next to a bunch of firecrackers. The indian running the joint said one day a big black semi-truck with huge scrawled white letters all down the side of the trailer (he couldn't make out the word or the letters because he went to a local American public school where they were only taught Cherokee) came through town on its way to a larger city and stopped out front and opened the rear doors up and the whole 53′ truck was full. He said the driver, a skinny, nervous, super-jittery guy, was practically giving the stuff away.
He didn't know what the stuff was but he bought it all because on the reservations they can sell anything legally and he figured eventually some white man would come through and know what it all was, buy it and he'd make a huge profit. Well, I knew what it was, but he also knew who I was. And, naturally, he was more impressed by who I was than I was by what he had. He also believed we had this whole cosmic "You're a warrior, I'm a warrior…" connection thing going on. And he was so into it I just didn't have it in me to disappoint him and tell him we really didn't have a connection thing going on because Ultimate Warrior, as a persona, was never created around his being an indian in the classic cowboys and indians sense. The truth is, I side with the cowboys not the indians, and I consider myself a Native American in the accurate sense. Moreover, I don't really appreciate that the indians, the bow and arrow kind, use the term in the misleading way that they for too long have. I mean, I was born here, in America, so I, too, am a Native American. I don't have to say my ancestors lived in a teepee and wore feathers in their hair, or yelp like a hyena or weave blankets or burn smudge sticks and smoke tax-free cigarettes to know I am one. Neither do you if you were born here. But we'll save that politically-incorrect discussion for another time. So, anyway, I went along with the roleplaying he was doing and used his belief to my advantage and negotiated with him until he took a pair of my underwear that I agreed to draw my Ultimate Warrior logo on, which he knew would always thereafter hold special powers. Funny, huh? Be back a little later to discuss my experiment — and many other things.
Your Founding Father of Ring Intensity,
Always Believe,
*(Neither has my wonderful, sarcastic, politically-incorrect sense of humor suffered in any way. It is still very much in intact.)
"Ho" Free. Good, Decent Summer Fun for Little Ones in the Hood….

Derek Jeter Gets 3,000th Hit: The 10 Most Memorable Home Runs of Jeter's Career
Posted on 9 Jul 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
In the third inning of Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays, Derek Jeter became one of two players to hit a home run on his 3,000th hit. Wade Boggs is the other. He's the 28th player to reach the elusive 3,000 hit club. Jeter's the fourth youngest player to reach 3,000 hits. The three ahead of him…Ty Cobb, Hank Aaron and Robin Yount. 10. The Lone Grand Slam In 253 career a...

So Close, but Yet So Far
Posted on 23 Jun 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
Derek Jeter sits six hits from 3,000, however, he also resides on the Yankees' 14-day DL. His team is just .5 games behind Boston in the AL East, however, if the Red Sox' recent clobbering of the Bombers is any indication, New York really needs to step it up. That's going to be hard considering that arguably their best pitcher and definitely their most pleasant surprise this year, Bartolo Col...

This will be my shortest post to date here in my early tenure at Pro Sports Blogging. I am going underground and will not return until next Friday June 17th. What I saw last night from the New York Yankees was disgusting. The Bombers got swept for the second time in a month by their blood rivals the Red Sox. They have no heart. They have no intensity. They have lousy fundamentals....

Hey now, you're an All-Star
Posted on 3 Jun 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
That's pretty much true if you're a New York Yankee. Six of the nine AL position players leading in the voting hail from the Bronx Bombers. A friend advised me of this earlier in the week with the end note of (loosely translated) "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?!" I would have to agree. The entire infield has a familiar look for Yankees fans: Martin, Teixeira, Cano, Rodriguez and Jeter, for...

Sweepless in Seattle
Posted on 30 May 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The bullpen staff should be buying CC Sabathia dinner because his eight-inning, five-hit performance on Sunday spared them and the Yankees from being swept in Seattle and falling further behind the AL East-leading Red Sox. Heading into Monday, Boston had a one-game lead on New York, with Tampa half a game out of second. New York lost to the Mariners in 12 innings on Saturday night/early Su...

Mo Makes Mo History

Mariano Rivera is a marvel. His 16-year career, spent entirely in a Yankees uniform, has resulted in 572 saves and 75 wins and counting. On Wednesday, he appeared in his 1,000th game, the 15th pitcher to do so and the first to do it with one team. His save in the victory over the Blue Jays gave the Yankees a hair's breadth lead over Boston by half a game. As of Thursday, Tampa is 1.5 games out,...

Red Sox Over The Hump After Some Major Spring Cleaning
Posted on 20 May 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
If you told me the Red Sox would have a losing record for the first 39 games of the season, I would have rather put my money on Charlie Sheen getting his job back. If anything, most of us would have picked them to have the best record in baseball. After all, most fans and media had them pegged for a 100+ win season. I, on the other hand, was spotted stating my prediction on the local news on Op...

Pirates: Has Neal Huntington Overstayed His Welcome?
Posted on 19 May 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
When evaluating a trade in baseball, there needs to be a waiting period of about three years before deciding which team got the better deal. In the case of the Pirates trading Jose Bautista to the Toronto Blue Jays, I think it's fair to say which team got the better deal. On August 21, 2008, Bautista was traded from the Pirates to the Blue Jays for a player to be named later, which ended up...

With a three game sweep of the New York Yankees, the Red Sox have finally made it to the .500 mark. Raise your hand if you thought the Red Sox wouldn't reach the .500 mark until May 15th? I don't see any hands raised. The last time it took a Red Sox team this long to reach the .500 mark, was back in 1996 when it took 128 games to reach that feat. Oh by the way, that was Roger Clemens last sea...

0-fer Jorge's Sake
Posted on 16 May 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The veteran Yankee catcher-turned-DH's ask out of the lineup on Saturday did little to detract from the fact that the Bombers got swept by the Red Sox in a three-game set over the weekend. Tampa Bay now leads the AL East, and New York, by two games with Boston one game behind. Jorge Posada's decline this season has been painful to watch and even worse for a proud athlete to endure. His average ...

Poor Attendance, Poor Teams or Poor Planning?
Posted on 14 May 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
In case no one noticed, Major League Baseball fans have been staying away from the ballpark in droves. Well, to clarify, fans have been avoiding certain ballparks while packing into record sellouts in other venues. Is it the economy? Perhaps it is the exorbitant cost of the average ticket plus parking plus concessions? Family night at the ballpark used to be a fun and affordable experience. The...

Boras squashes any talk of Hosmer extension
Posted on 13 May 2011 by Ryan Riordan.
In his first week of baseball at the Major League level, Kansas City's Eric Hosmer has lived up the hype and then some. The top prospect homered for the second time in as many days Thursday, helping the Royals take two of three from the New York Yankees in Yankee Stadium. Hosmer is now hitting .333 with a 1.158 OPS in his six games with the club, which led Kansas City Star columnist Sam Melling...

Hey Ian- I'll tell Barb you're an inmate. Could you explain things to Gadget Boy?
Quick update: you gotta pay the Indians if you want to take their picture. I paid $10, which is ten pesos, which is about a dollar. But they wouldn't smile. I wouldn't either. That's because here, I'm a giant. Everyone knows GIANTS don't smile.
Getting this far in this many days has been a combination of quota riding and libre riding, meaning toll roads and free roads. Free roads mean battling with everything from dogs to goats to cars packed with way too many people and always there's someone with no brake lights practically stopped at the speed bumps. Most times we pass at the speed bumps, because we can take them at 10 to 20 mph, while trucks and buses and many cars practically stop. You see the most interesting things on the free roads but they're the most exhausting. On the toll roads we still have to do battle (BATTLE!) but at least there ain't no speed bumps. The downside is the cost and lack of sight-seeing opportunities. We must have spent at least US$100 on tolls. Just from Veracruz to San Cristobal de las Casas I think we each paid US$50. Sometimes it's super fun to ride the free roads, but other times we just want to get somewhere. Even the toll roads don't let us cover a ton of miles a day. I'd guess that covering a mile in Mexico is about twice as hard for me as a mile in the US. And the miles add up!
We're both getting more comfortable with the new-ness of this trip. Sorry I haven't had many good pics yet. Part of that is because of the weather, but part of it is from not being in a good comfort-zone. I haven't been able to do any type of riding since October, and Barb hadn't been on her KLR since summer. I'm still not in a rythm of knowing where all my stuff is stuffed in the cases and bags. I keep forgetting to re-stock my fake wallet. Taking the malaria pill in the morning isn't habit yet. But I'm starting to feel a groove coming on. Yep. Things are gonna start to flow, baby! Guatemala tomorow!
How far away to we have to be from The States to start saying "Back in the States..." I'm thinking we're almost there. How are things "back in the States?" We hear news but it's all so... "back in the States."
Like, Back in the States I can carry my laptop around and use any old hotspot I can hack into. Here I feel lucky to have found an internet cafe with a workable keyboard and reasonable download times.
I am Charlie.

29 year old woman | Rancho Cordova, CA, USA | Seeking men 27-35 in Sacramento, California, United States
Trust me, I'm a ______.
Recently moved to Sac from LA...It'd be great to meet someone who can show me around! :) Ok, let's get to the important stuff: - I am very sarcastic, some people would say I can be a smartass. I think I'm pretty hilarious :P - I sing in my car all the time - I have lots of energy and love to start my days early, but I can be convinced to sleep in :) - I love to cook. I'm a healthy eater but I'm a foodie so splurging is ok every now and then. - I like to cuddle while sleeping - I spin; if you know what that is or have ever tried it, extra points for you :) - I'm a cutie with a bootie, that will NEVER change - I tend to correct people's grammar. Sorry, I'm not sorry. - I'm the proud owner of a 3 year old Frenchie. He is my best friend. - I love telling dramatic stories. - I wear my heart on my sleeve - My mom says I'm beautiful :P - My family is everything, their approval is important - I think I'm pretty awesome, so I'm not willing to change for anyone. Why match? I am at the point in my life where I would like to get to know a wide variety of people. I am interested in meeting someone to share a laugh, to create great memories and hopefully make a lasting connection with. I am a believer in true love and hope to one day find a partner to share this amazing life with. I'm a very ambitious and driven person and want to find someone who is equally motivated. I am looking for someone who is passionate about life and their career. You don't have to be rich or famous, just love what you do and give it 100%. I am someone who knows what they want in life and would probably do well with someone who has similar goals. Although I am hard working and motivated, I would like to be with someone I can come home to and let my hair down with. Someone who I consider my best friend and my teammate. I'm not looking for someone perfect, just someone who can keep up with me and appreciate me for who I am. I'm a huge music fan: anywhere from hip/hop and top 40 to Radiohead (fav band) and indie rock. I love to laugh and make others laugh. I am pretty low key, but enjoy spending time with friends, going to a local bar or checking out a new restaurant. I enjoy trying new things and being adventurous as much as possible. I adore traveling and wish I had more time/money to do so. My most recent trip was a 2 week trip to Thailand that was absolutely magical! If you like anything you read, send me an email and let's see what happens :)

Oh don't worry, just searched it up.
-I have 5 kids
-I always carry a gun
-I can't speak proper English
-I only like chicks with big butts
-I'm a complete and utter douche
-I don't have manners
-My parent's aren't together (20+ years proves that utterly wrong)
-All I know is weed, gangs and sex.
Personally, due to my looks, I'm a Satanist who sacrifices goats and rapes virgin girls.
As a Spanish, I sleep siesta (not true, only if I'm ill), I'm partying all day (only weekends), I like bullfights (hate them with a passion) and I am a Cath attending all kind of Eastern processions (no, thank you, they are boringand they just delay you when you're trying to go to the other side of the city, so you need to go earlier, later or stay home)
And as I speak Spanish, people think I eat burritosand tacos. Those are Mexican. Not Spanish, at all.
For the rest of the World English people are either:
Tea drinking, suit wearing, sexually restricted posh people....or drunk, violent, toothless and rude.
For the South of England, Northerners like myself are:
Dumb, poor, get washed in tin baths outside, have no electricity and if you watch the news we pretty much don't exist as Manchester is the furthest North those lazy bastards bother to go lol

Saturn's moon Rhea had been considered massive enough to retain a thin, externally generated atmosphere capable of locally affecting Saturn's magnetosphere. The Cassini spacecraft's in situ observations reveal that energetic electrons are depleted in the moon's vicinity. The absence of a substantial exosphere implies that Rhea's magnetospheric interaction region, rather than being exclusively induced by sputtered gas and its products, likely contains solid material that can absorb magnetospheric particles. Combined observations from several instruments suggest that this material is in the form of grains and boulders up to several decimetres in size and orbits Rhea as an equatorial debris disk. Within this disk may reside denser, discrete rings or arcs of material.

As almost all reviews have shown, the increased clocks make up for it. The memory bandwidth is the same, and the effective fillrate is the almost the same due to the increased core clock, so there's absolutely no reason for this card to perform any lower than the GT (maybe ~0-5% due to the slightly reduced fillrate). And it doesn't disappoint.
At $199, this card is simply *beautiful*
Edit: My bad. The texel fillrate is comparable to the GT, but the pixel fillrate is a lot less due to the 8 ROPs (as opposed to the GT's 16). 16 ROPs was definitely overkill on the GT, but 8 on the GS might be a little less.

*Concert Bonus - come early!
A highlight of this spring's program will be a pre-concert talk at 6:45 p.m. by an American composer and an American actress featuring the work of one of the most iconic of all American poets. This presentation by Hudson Chorale conductor and music director, Michael Conley, and Chorale alto, Barbara Dana, will focus on the life and work of Emily Dickinson, whose poems comprise the text of Bequest of Wings. Conley, the composer of Bequest, dedicated his new work to Dana, an award-winning actress who played Dickinson in the one-woman play, Belle of Amherst. She is also the author of two books about Dickinson, A Voice of Her Own: Becoming Emily Dickinson, and Meditations on the Healing Power of Emily Dickinson. Dana will be speaking about the life and poetry of Dickinson, reading some of the poems featured in Bequest, and Conley will be discussing how these poems inspired the gossamer lyricism of his music. Hudson Chorale is proud to present our composer/conductor/music director Michael Conley alongside Chorale alto/actress/author Barbara Dana in this very special pre-concert presentation, bringing to our audience a new understanding of and appreciation for Emily Dickinson, one of America's greatest and most enduring "voices." Don't miss this concert bonus! The concert, itself, follows at 7:30.
