In fact, at one point, I had to ask myself if there was any benefit at all to being in a guild other than having guild chat and a cool tag. I'm certainly haven't lost hope yet because after all, it's only a few weeks into the game, and features like the guild capital ship have already been mentioned as being on the way. But this week, I'm playing amateur developer and adding my list of guild-friendly features that are must-haves for SWTOR (and for all MMOs, actually!).
In fact, at one point, I had to ask myself if there was any benefit at all to being in a guild other than having guild chat and a cool tag. I'm certainly haven't lost hope yet because after all, it's only a few weeks into the game, and features like the guild capital ship have already been mentioned as being on the way. But this week, I'm playing amateur developer and adding my list of guild-friendly features that are must-haves for SWTOR (and for all MMOs, actually!).
Guild mail
A big part of a guild leader's role is making sure to communicate with the guild about things ranging from important events to light chit-chat. A visible guild leader is usually a sign of a healthy guild, and there's no better way to do that than through messages and updates. I've written before about guild websites and how I don't feel they are as important as they were years ago, but that's because many MMOs provide good means to communicate in game now. SWTOR, however, falls short so far, and a good start would be a basic feature giving guild leaders and officers the ability to send a mass in-game mail to the guild. Members like to know what's going on in the guild, from planned events to player achievements to silly things like JediBob's accidentally being slain by a wamp rat. Right now, that's hard to pass along in-game.
Guild event log
So far, the in-game guild window, while functional, is a bit bare-bones. One thing that I really miss from other games is an event log that displays what's happened over the past few days. Part of it is curiosity, like wanting to know who leveled up the day before, who looted a cool new lightsaber, or who earned what achievement. Part of it is logistics, like knowing which officer invited a new member or who left the guild in a /ragequit the night before. Guild leaders don't like surprises, and it's nice to have something that's customizable and automatically tracks certain events within the guild.
Guild bank
This is something that should almost be standard in any MMO these days, and it's probably most needed right when a game launches because players tend to accumulate lots of resources, armor, and handy upgrades for each other as they level up and play through the content. In-game mail helps to spread stuff around, but it's much easier to have one central place to put stuff so that no matter whether someone's online or not, she can check the bank and see what's available and then stock it up herself as well.
This is another detail in the guild window that would make members' lives so much easier. It's hard to keep track of who's doing what crew skill, and it would help to see a sortable list of crew skills by level and type. That way, if I need to track down an armstech to talk about a new blaster, I can quickly find someone who has the skill and appropriate level to work out an arrangement. Or if I have a bagfull of archaeology materials, I can sort through the list and spot a member to mail them to. I've been trying to add it into member notes on our roster, but it's hard to keep that up to date, and even then, there's no way to keep a current listing of skill levels.
Guild recruiting window
Whoever worked on the pre-launch guild deployment system did a fantastic job and should be put to work right away to add a similar feature in-game. There are plenty of guilds recruiting, but right now it's limited to the chat channels, official forums, and guild websites. To me, that's pretty clunky and archaic, and it surprised me that the game had a terrific database during pre-launch that contained a decent guild search and application system, and yet there's nothing like that in-game, where it's needed most.
Leveling system
I'm actually of two minds on this one because while I like lots of things to do within the guild, leveling systems can sometimes feel like contrived busywork. You end up doing things to level, not necessarily because they're enjoyable but because you want the perks that come with those activities. Right now, there are much more important guild features that probably come before something like this anyway.
Allies and enemies
Part of the pre-launch guild system featured the ability to choose guilds as allies or enemies. I can see how this would be helpful for PvP guilds, since there was an effort to put those allies and enemies on the same server for launch, but for PvE guilds, there's really little functional value to it. It would be nice if there were some features that took advantage of these loose alliances, like a multi-guild event calendar, customizable chat, or even a separate common bank where players could exchange goods and resources. On the flip side, it would be neat to see a guild war feature so that enemy guilds could temporarily flag themselves as being at war and have a good old-fashioned throwdown.
This is one of those "think outside the box" ideas, but I think it would be neat to have our very own holocall system. The next time JediBob is screwing around in a warzone and holding up a group, I could send a little holocall of a cantina dancer with my stern voice in the background yelling, "Put down the huttball and get with the group!" If nothing else, it would definitely get his attention.
Do you have a guild problem that you just can't seem to resolve? Have a guild issue that you'd like to discuss? Every week, Karen Bryan takes on reader questions about guild management right here in The Guild Counsel column. She'll offer advice, give practical tips, and even provide a shoulder to lean on for those who are taking up the challenging task of running a guild.

Call for Sessions
The fourteenth annual Faculty Institute will take place May 14-15, 2015, on the New York City Campus. The primary purpose of the Faculty Institute is to promote teaching excellence and collaboration. The planning committee invites and encourages your participation in this year's Institute with this call for session proposals.
Look in a typical Pace first-year class. Count the number of students you see. Now fast forward to commencement 4 years later. For every 12 students who enroll at Pace, 1 leaves after the first semester, 3 are not enrolled after 1 year, and 7 graduate within 6 years. Why?
This year's Faculty Institute takes a close look at the question, "Who Gets to Graduate from Pace and Why?" This theme was inspired by the New York Times article "Who Gets to Graduate" by Paul Tough (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/18/magazine/who-gets-to-graduate.html?hp&_r=1). At the heart of this question is the issue of student retention. The Institute will examine a range of factors related to retention including those within the university's control--engaging and rigorous instruction, strong faculty-student interactions--and at those that may not be open to our influence including students' readiness for college, their expectations about the college experience, and their motivations for enrolling.
Consistent with this theme we welcome proposals for interactive workshops and presentations that address:
- Who are the Pace students
- Teaching Strategies for Student Success
- Faculty - Student Mentoring
- Faculty - Student Undergraduate Research
- Developing and Fostering Community
- Service Learning
- Technology Fluency in the Disciplines
- Learning Communities
- First-Year Experience
- Deep Learning
- Collaboration in the Classroom
- Student Diversity
- Diversity/Global Learning
- Global Learning
- Internships
- Capstone Courses
The committee is seeking 90 minute or 45 minute sessions that demonstrate innovative, interdisciplinary and unconventional efforts that faculty, staff, and students can engage in to advance teaching and learning. Our focus is successful strategies that will have an impact on student retention. Please be advised that for the 90 minute sessions, we are requesting that the proposed session include multiple presenters, involve student collaboration and be very much hands-on and highly interactive.
We hope you will share your expertise.
Guidelines for Submission
- Please submit a title and a 150-word abstract of your session. Please limit the time of your session to 45 minutes.
- Please indicate in bullet form how you intend to engage the audience. Some ideas include: discussion, questions, games and simulations; participant adaptation and development of classroom activities similar to yours; break-out groups for activities or discussion; and incorporating multimedia.
- Please indicate media requirements and/or other needs for your presentation.
- Please provide the names, titles and schools of each presenter along with telephone numbers, e-mail addresses and other contact information, including students who may be presenting.
- Please let us know if you would like to be a track chair/facilitator, responsible for introducing participants and keeping time.
Feedback from faculty, administrators and staff regarding previous Faculty Institutes and the accomplished presentations by Pace colleagues has been tremendous. Attendance averages well over 130 of your colleagues! As in past years we are encouraging active participation among the session attendees. Please indicate how you intend to engage your audience.
**The deadline to submit is extended to April 13th, 2015**

Regular readers know I am doing 50 healthy things this year in honor of my 50th birthday. Here's number 50 – delivering on a promise.
One year ago today, I made a public declaration that I would do 50 healthy things in honor of my 50th birthday year. I had never made such a bold New Year's resolution, and I certainly had never put one out for the world to see.
It was an interesting journey. I started the year with enthusiasm and fervor. Second quarter was slow and steady. In third quarter, I hit a bit of a lull, which forced me to race to the finish line in fourth quarter like my life depended on it. Thus, you've seen a plethora of posts over the past couple of weeks.
But I did it! I made it! Sound the New Year's noisemakers please!
I really wasn't sure how it would play out. I said in my first post, "My vision is that some of these things will be small and personal, while others may be larger and more organized. I would love your ideas, input and participation."
And that's exactly what's happened. It's been a mishmash of personal anecdotes mixed with highlights of some great brands that promote healthy living. Here's a recap of the whole #healthy50 list:
- Electric Car – I bought a zippy little Nissan Leaf, and I still love it. I haven't gotten gas in a year. What a time saver.
- Walking meetings – we're on a quest to eradicate the dangers of sitting at Kuhn & Wittenborn.
- New shoes – The pros at Gary Gribble's Running Sports helped me find the perfect fit to keep me going all year.
- Drinking Water – I still drink half my body weight in ounces each day.
- Kicking Sugar to the Curb – I completely eliminated sugar for three-fourths of the year. I'll admit I've fallen down over the holidays, but I plan to get back on track.
- Breathing – My friend, Toby Kuhn, introduced me to a great breathing app to help with stress reduction. Dr. Andrew Weil has some great tips too.
- My Fitness Pal – I still think it's a great tracker for accountability in diet and exercise.
- Fitbit – My goal is at least 5,000 steps each day, but I try to get closer to 10,000. My Fitbit keeps me accountable.
- 5 Fruits and Veggies/Day – It's a "rule" for me and easier than one might thing if you focus.
- New perspectives – I had the opportunity to gain new perspectives about agriculture and life from a lecture by Vandana Shiva at Kansas City's Unity Temple.
- Celebrate milestones – I celebrated my 25th anniversary at Kuhn & Wittenborn.
- Kombucha – I started brewing my own version of this ancient elixir at home. I'll be honest – as the year went on, I got a little nervous about the safety of home brewing conditions. It was a great experiment, but….
- Sleep – I'm still trying my best to get 7-8 hours per night.
- Powerhouse greens – I'm still eating a LOT of greens in different ways – including the choco green smoothie I highlighted in this post.
- PiYo – I still go every Saturday morning, and I had fun introducing my teacher, Becky Feller, to my colleagues at Kuhn & Wittenborn.
- Road trip – I feel like one of the best things Randy and I have done as parents is to lock our kids in the car with us every summer. We've made great memories, and this year was no exception.
- Getting back to your roots – I had a great time connecting with extended family at my cousin, Troy's wedding.
- Eat more pie – My favorite new brand I discovered this year is Pie Lab in Greensboro, AL.
- Expand your fitness horizons – Architecture and design students from Auburn University have a created an awesome model for community fitness at a park in Greensboro.
- Calm amidst the chaos – We had a wild summer, but Randy and I managed to find a little peace right in the middle of Atlanta at the Chatahootchee National Recreation Area.
- Play a team sport – We spend a lot of time watching our son's baseball team. Karl Carswell and his gang at KC Barnstormers are the best in the business.
- Eat some weeds – My weekly CSA from Gibbs Road Farm and Cultivate Kansas City did a great job of introducing me to new produce this year – including purslane, often eschewed as a weed.
- Surprise – My family taught me to embrace the unexpected with an incredible birthday celebration.
- ACV – The advantages of Bragg's apple cider vinegar are too numerous to mention.
- Campout – Spending the night with the members of Shawnee Mission Northwest Student Council made me optimistic about the future.
- Coconut Oil – This is my new wonder product. I use it for everything.
- Chicken man – With the importance of local, sustainably raised meat reaching new heights, I feel fortunate to know Mike and Dee Martin from 4D Acres.
- Bone Broth – I never thought I'd be boiling bones to make a healing soup, but turning 50 leads to weird things I guess.
- Bring your lunch – It saves money and calories. Our clients at GEHA had some great ideas. To see the videos we produced for them, click here.
- Try a new fruit or veggie – Just when I thought I knew them all, my colleague, Erin Carlson, introduced me to the watermelon radish.
- Mammogram – You have to do it, and really, it's not so bad.
- Coffee – I can't start my day without it, and I don't feel one bit guilty about it. A new brand I discovered that gives back to soldiers, Green Beans Coffee, makes it even better.
- Catching up with old friends – Reconnecting with friends from college at the recently reopened JJ's Restaurant was good for my soul.
- DIY cleaner – A mix of coconut oil and baking soda had my kitchen cabinets gleaming without the use of toxic chemicals.
- BOSU – According to the BOSU website, it's the perfect tool for "active aging." I guess that's me.
- Sunchokes – This is another new food I learned to love this year.
- Healthy appetizers – Like most of us, I struggled to keep up healthy eating during the holiday season, but I found a few good alternatives.
- Healthy gifts – Likewise, the options for fitness-related gifts seemed to grow this year.
- Essential oils – I've developed a recent obsession with Young Living oils. They have all kinds excellent uses.
- Healthy holiday decorations – Brands like Sur La Table and others jumped on the healthy bandwagon with home décor.
- Dark chocolate – For most of the year, it's the one indulgence I allowed myself. My favorite brand is Chocolove.
- Family traditions – My kids reminded me how important traditions are in strengthening healthy bonds between generations.
- Probiotics – I'm very interested in the role of "gut health" in overall health. I take a probiotic supplement every day.
- Jillian Michaels – When I can't get to the gym, I work out at home with America's toughest trainer.
- Sharing cookies at the dog park – Randy and his new friend, Ben, inspired me to be open to "strangers."
- Tea – Shang Tea is one of my favorite healthy brands, and the health benefits of tea are numerous.
- Play by the rules – After weeks of holiday feasting, I felt the need to get back on track with some healthy living "rules."
- Fish oil – It's hard to get enough Omega-3s in your diet without supplements. I looked at several options.
- Pegan diet – Dr. Mark Hyman convinced me that combining the best of Paleo and Vegan diets to become a "Pegan" is a good idea. Read this excellent article.
- Delivering on a promise – In the end, I think this is really what it's all about: finishing what we start and fulfilling commitments. It's easy to say we're going to do something, but to actually do it is more of challenge. However, that's what the best people and the best brands do. They deliver on their promises. They execute plans. There may be some twists and turns along the way, but in the end, there's a lot of satisfaction in completing what we start.
I have had a lot of fun this year with my #healthy50 list. Many great people and great brands played a role, and I am eternally grateful for your encouragement and participation.
I'm not making such a bold resolution this year, but I am committed to maintaining an interest in healthy brands and healthy lifestyles. I look forward to seeing what unfolds in 2015, and I wish you all health and happiness.

CHAMPAIGN – Saturday's game against Nebraska was a microcosm of what Illinois' season has been like.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Rodney Williams snapped out of a funk to score 23 points and No. 23 Minnesota got a much-needed confidence boost with an 84-65 victory over Nebraska on Tuesday night.
If his last performance against Missouri State is any indication, Creighton's Doug McDermott may be poised for another big game.
NIU sets record for futility
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) Dylan Talley scored 20 points and Ray Gallegos broke out of his 3-point shooting slump in the second half to lead Nebraska to a 64-49 victory over Northwestern on Saturday.

Qualcomm Announces X16 Modem Featuring Gigabit LTE
Subject: Mobile | February 12, 2016 - 04:26 PM | Sebastian Peak
Tagged: X16 modem, qualcomm, mu-mimo, modem, LTE, Gigabit LTE, FinFET, Carrier Aggregation, 14nm
Qualcomm's new X16 LTE Modem is the industry's first Gigabit LTE chipset to be announced, achieving speeds of up to 1 Gbps using 4x Carrier Aggregation. The X16 succeeds the recently announced X12 modem, improving on the X12's 3x Carrier Aggregation and moving from LTE CAT 12 to CAT 16 on the downlink, while retaining CAT 13 on the uplink.
"In order to make a Gigabit Class LTE modem a reality, Qualcomm added a suite of enhancements – built on a foundation of commercially-proven Carrier Aggregation technology. The Snapdragon X16 LTE modem employs sophisticated digital signal processing to pack more bits per transmission with 256-QAM, receives data on four antennas through 4x4 MIMO, and supports for up to 4x Carrier Aggregation — all of which come together to achieve unprecedented download speeds."
Gigabit speeds are only possible if multiple data streams are connected to the device simultaneously, and with the new X16 modem such aggregation is performed using LTE-U and LAA.
(Image via EE Times)
What does all of this mean? Aggregation is a term you'll see a lot as we progress into the next generation of cellular data technology, and with the X16 Qualcomm is emphasizing carrier over link aggregation. Essentially Carrier Aggregation works by combining the carrier LTE data signal (licensed, high transmit power) with a shorter-range, shared spectrum (unlicensed, low transmit power) LTE signal. When the signals are combined at the device (i.e. your smartphone), significantly better throughput is possible with this larger (aggregated) data 'pipe'.
Qualcomm lists the four main options for unlicensed LTE deployment as follows:
- LTE-U: Based on 3GPP Rel. 12, LTE-U targets early mobile operators deployments in USA, Korea and India, with coexistence tests defined by LTE-U forum
- LAA: Defined in 3GPP Rel. 13, LAA (Licensed Assisted Access) targets deployments in Europe, Japan, & beyond.
- LWA: Defined in 3GPP Rel. 13, LWA (LTE - Wi-Fi link aggregation) targets deployments where the operators already has carrier Wi-Fi deployments.
- MulteFire: Broadens the LTE ecosystem to new deployment opportunities by operating solely in unlicensed spectrum without a licensed anchor channel
The X16 is also Qualcomm's first modem to be built on 14nm FinFet process, which Qualcomm says is highly scalable and will enable the company to evolve the modem product line "to address an even wider range of product, all the way down to power-efficient connectivity for IoT devices."
Qualcomm has already begun sampling the X16, and expects the first commercial products in the second half of 2016.

If you have a Trane thermostat you should update the firmware immediately
Subject: General Tech | February 9, 2016 - 01:30 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: trane, iot, security
It is not a good sign when a security team refers to your smart thermostat as "a little malware store", especially when the flaws have been known for some time. Indeed the original issue of hardcoded SSH passwords has been known since 2014 and the update took a year to be created. Unfortunately most owners of a Trane Thermostat will not have upgraded their firmware, even if they knew about the update as it is not something which was installed remotely. Instead you need to download the new firmware onto an SD card and manually install it on the thermostat. Last month another update was released to address a remote code execution vulnerability in the ComfortLink II, which was not generally known until The Register posted about it today. If you are using this device you should get an SD card handy and download the firmware.
"In April 2015, one year after the first alert, Trane fixed the hardcoded password issue with a new release of the ComfortLink's firmware. Cisco then tipped off US CERT about the remaining issues. Trane eventually addressed the flaws in its code in January 2016, but didn't tell its customers that new firmware is available."

Fancy new Intel powered routers from Wind River
Subject: General Tech | February 12, 2016 - 12:28 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: Intel, wind river, telecoms
The next dream of telecoms providers is network function virtualization, the ability to virtualize customers hardware instead of shipping them a device. The example given to the The Register were DVRs, instead of shipping a cablebox with recording capability to the customer the DVR would be virtualized on the telcos internal infrastructure. You could sign up for a DVR VM, point your smart TV at the appropriate IP address and plug in a USB disk for local storage.
The problem has been the hardware available to the telco, the routers simply did not have the power to provide a consistent internet or cable connection, let alone add virtual devices to their systems. At the upcoming MWC, Wind River will be showing off Titanium Servers for virtualizing customer premises equipment, with enough processing power and VM optimizations that these types of services could be supported.
"Intel is starting to deliver on its vision of x86-powered modem/routers in the home , as its Wind River subsidiary releases a server dedicated to delivery of functions to virtual customer premises equipment (CPE)."

Tagged: thermaltake, Core P5 Wall-Mounted ATX Chassis
Thermaltake have come up with a unique take on an enclosure, the Core P5 Wall-Mounted ATX chassis. It is a case designed to be mounted on a wall and to show off all of your components thanks to a clear acrylic front panel. You can see there is quite a bit of space for components inside which can present a challenge if you are trying for a particular aesthetic but with some creativity you should be able to fill it attractively. It is an open air design which you should consider when deciding where to mount the case and it also offers benefits when you consider cooling. Check out the full review over at [H]ard|OCP.
"The main element that Thermaltake wants you to be able to accomplish with it new Core P5 Chassis, is for you to be able to show off your awesome PC system configuration that you have spent weeks working on so that it is near-perfect. While the P5 checks off more feature boxes than that, it surely does a good job of showing off your rig."

Havok Shuts Down Project Anarchy

Tagged: Havok, project anarchy, game engine
Annnnnnd now we have one less game engine in the industry.
We posted yesterday about Amazon launching their Lumberyard engine, which is a fork of CryEngine that monetizes by strongly tying itself to Amazon Web Services. Later that day, I found out that Havok shut down their Project Anarchy engine, which was free for mobile development on iOS, Android, and Tizen. It had interesting technology for its supported platforms, when extend down to OpenGL ES 2.0, that combined Havok's middleware into an editor with component-based objects. While this setup is how Unity and Unreal Engine are structured, it's an artist-friendly method. Want something to interact with gravity and collision? Drag a Havok Rigid Body Physics component on it and save.
That could not be a more blatant parody of Bubs if it tried, which it probably is.
I did not really know too much about the engine, but it was originally released back in 2013. They held a game development challenge in early 2014. The Project Anarchy Mobile Game Development Challenge had a $100,000 top prize, which was won by Cosmonautica from Chasing Carrots. The other two winners were a train simulator and a puzzle matching game.

Tagged: asustor, AS5002T, NAS, htpc, baytrail
Being in the market for a Plex server and running low on patience and spare hardware I have been sniffing around NAS servers, which is why you are now reading about the ASUSTOR AS5002T. Missing Remote just picked this NAS up for review, powered by a dual core Celeron J1800 clocked at 2.4GHz instead of an ARM processor. The reason that matters is the inclusion of Intel HD Graphics onboard for real time encoding when streaming to remote devices. On the other hand it is not the most modern of processors and the AS5002T also showed some peculiarity with drive sizes. The processor is not going to be able to push 4k over some interfaces but HDMI 1.4a, IR control capability and broad support for the usual selection of HTPC programs does make this NAS a good fit for many. Read the full review to get a better idea of the capabilities of the ASUSTOR AS5002T.
"The ASUSTOR AS5002T is the first Intel based network attached storage (NAS) device tested at Missing Remote. So, I was very curious to see how its dual-core 2.4GHz Celeron J1800 would stack up against the strong showing we've seen from ARM Cortex-A15 based systems recently."

Phanteks Announces Eclipse Series P400, P400S Enclosures

Tagged: RGB, phanteks, mid-tower, enclosure, Eclipse Series, Eclipse P400S, Eclipse P400, case
Phanteks has announced a new enclosure series called 'Eclipse', which take the internal layout of the Enthoo lineup and packages it in a pair of affordable new enclosures; the P400 and P400S.
"Without much effort, the P400 allows users to create a clean and beautiful system. Ambient RGB illumination adds character while the solid metal exterior gives the case a simple elegant design. The P400 is suitable for beginners and experienced system builders with all the extra features; the P400S comes with sound damping panels and a 3-speed fan controller to enhance acoustical performance."
The internal layout of these enclosures will be familiar to you if you've seen the Enthoo series, with an open main chamber, a bottom partition for the PSU and hard drives, and all storage accessible from behind the system. There are a couple of notable differences between the Eclipse P400 and P400S, primarily the latter's noise-reducing insulation and the addition of a 3-speed fan controller.
Exploded view of Eclipse P400S

Cuccinelli Revives Witch Hunt Against Michael Mann and Climate Science
Brendan DeMelle | October 4, 2010
By Brendan DeMelle • Monday, October 4, 2010 - 19:26
Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli has revived his witch hunt against prominent climate scientist Michael Mann, recycling pieces of his earlier botched subpoena into a new Civil Investigative Demand aimed at Mann and the University of Virginia. Cuccinelli's previous witch hunt was blocked by Albemarle County Circuit Court Judge Paul Peatross, who ruled that Cuccinelli lacked "an objective basis" for his subpoena, which The Washington Post editors noted "put a damper on a pernicious fishing expedition."
But Cuccinelli has re-strung the same stale Climategate bait on his fishing pole, "extending his assault on academic freedom" as expected. Oh, and he's going to appeal Judge Peatross's ruling, in a remarkable display of hubris that is sure to embarrass Virginia yet again.
In his latest political attack on climate science, Cuccinelli demands seven years' worth of Dr. Mann's emails, documents and just about every other shred of paper and bytes related to one state grant Mann received during his tenure at UVA. Cuccinelli wants to see every email Mann exchanged with a list of 39 other scientists, as well as Mann's communications with his secretaries and research associates, related to the state grant. Cuccinelli only stripped his inappropriate request for documents related to federal grants after Judge Peatross smacked down that trolling effort, although he vows to appeal to re-open that garbage can.

Titan is actually thought to be the closest thing in our solar system to be able to inhabit one day. Not now though since it's atmosphere is nitrogen and methane, and has hydrocarbon lakes. Europa on Jupiter is though to have a possibility of organic life in its ocean underneath it's surface. Enceladus has cryovolcanoes from the constant gravitational pull from Saturn an it's moons.

Nets pick up ground by beating Raptors
|Brooklyn Nets Brooklyn Nets' Shaun Livingston (14) shoots over Toronto Raptors' Tyler Hansbrough (50) and Kyle Lowry (7) half of an NBA basketball game on Monday, March 10, 2014 at Barclays Center in New York. The Nets won 101-97. (AP Photo/Kathy Kmonicek)
NEW YORK (AP) — Deron Williams and Shaun Livingston each scored 18 points and an ailing Paul Pierce hit a 3-pointer with 1:14 remaining to lead the Brooklyn Nets to a 101-97 victory over the Atlantic Division-leading Toronto Raptors on Monday night.
Pierce finished with 15 points and Joe Johnson added 14 for the Nets, who won their season-high eighth straight at home. Brooklyn moved three games behind Toronto in the Atlantic.
Kyle Lowry scored 21 points to lead Toronto, which had won nine of its previous 11.
The Nets trailed 94-92 after Lowry split the defense in the lane for a lay-up with 2:15 left.
Brooklyn then answered with five straight points as Andray Blatche's reverse lay-up tied the score at 94 and Pierce followed with a 3-pointer.

There was no doubt Paul Ryan could energize this convention; he may even energize his whole party with a tea party populism. But when Mitt Romney's choice of this young man as his running mate was announced, it also energized another quarter: the opposition, or at least its tired old warhorses.
Oh, boy, here was their big chance -- to drum up Mediscare again, and roll out nostrums that may not have been new since the 1930s, but that still have power, or at least are thought to have power by those now uneasily in power. Or rather in office. There's a difference. Those now in high office may have run out of any ideas except staying there. Nor do they ever run out of straw men -- and Paul Ryan, it was thought, would make the perfect foil. They may not think so now.
Ronald Reagan once inspired the same enthusiasm on the part of his opponents on the left. He was just an "amiable dunce," to quote the Democratic Party's wise old man, Clark Clifford, who proved older than he did wise. Jimmy Carter's brain trust, to use the term loosely, welcomed this old B-movie actor to the presidential race. Ronald Reagan may have had an infectious smile, but, they assumed, nothing else. They found out different.
Much like the Carter administration, this one seems to think progress is nothing but more and more of the same thing -- more spending, more government take-overs, more happy talk -- even when the same thing has repeatedly produced the same disappointing results, from the static unemployment figures to the familiar misadventures in crony capitalism. (See under Solyndra.)
A confession: I've never thought much about Janesville, Wis. To be more exact, I've never thought about Janesville, Wis., at all. But if it can produce a Paul Ryan, with his family and work ethic and parish church and all the rest of his very American ethos, it must be a nice place. Like so many other small towns in the Midwest, and in America. Like a town called Pine Bluff in Arkansas, where I spent 30 years writing editorials for the feisty local paper.
You know the kind of places I mean. The kind of places that are still the backbone of the country. The kind of places that dot what Scott Fitzgerald called the dark rolling fields of the republic. Janesville has a nice sound to it -- like Bedford Falls or Hannibal, Mo. And you never know when some small town will produce a wonderful life, or a Mark Twain. Or, yes, a Paul Ryan.
Agree or disagree with young Mr. Ryan's array, arsenal and abundance of ideas and energy, this much surely is beyond dispute: He provides a dramatic contrast with his opposite on the other ticket this fall, the current vice president of the United States -- who's more of a political embarrassment than a political thinker.
There is a peculiar, pitiable air about an old plagiarist like poor Joe Biden -- the air of someone who doesn't have enough confidence in the power of his own words and ideas to rely on them, but must steal others'. Paul Ryan seems to have no need to appropriate others' words. He has enough confidence in his own ideas to produce, present and defend them. Vigorously. After his performance in Tampa, I have an idea, too: He can do this.
Pulitzer Prize-winning Paul Greenberg, one of the most respected and honored commentators in America, is the editorial page editor of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

I have a question about the recipe "Chocolate Bundt Cake" from KelseyTheNaptimeChef. If using a tube pan, how would we adjust the baking time?
From Our Friends
powered by ZergNet
Hi, there! It should actually be about the same baking time, since both pans have holes in the middle and the same amount of batter. Each oven is a little different, though, so start checking your cake several minutes before the recommended "done" time and go from there.

Used to be really good; now not so much. Dr. Pickard is now too busy so you might get a student wet behind the ears. Also, the nurse is obnoxious and you will get an attitufe or eyes rolled if you ask her for any additional blood work that may have been forgotten. She gets very annoyed...
I think he has grown to big. Very hard to get an emergency appointment now. The receptionists pat answer is if it's an emergency go to the hospital. Not that kind of an emergency. He needs to leave spots open for things that need to be seen but not so serious that you have to go to ER
Dr Pickard is personal and helpful with information about medical concerns.
They all should be 5 stars My appointment was very enjoyable Doctor Picard He was very informative I'm very glad I made the decision to have him as my primary care physician The staff was excellent
Dr. Pickard is very professional yet very pleasant and non-intimidating. He makes his patients fill at ease and listens to them. It is not just him, but the atmosphere, which he creates with the nurses and receptionist that work for him, is pleasant.
I am happy with my provider because he gives me clear and complete explanations.
wonderful caring doctor and nursing staff (barb) very comfortable office visit .dr plcard takes his time with patient and really listens to patients concerned . i would and have referred friends to this practice.
Hello Best Dr's visit I ever had thank you for a life changing experience. Warm Wishes, Susie C
Takes time. Cares. Even does house calls.

Exceptional Growth In-Demand For Payday Advances
Development that was exceptional has been experienced by the need for payday cash advances over the past couple of years. As persons arrive at realize that the method is protected and efficient, income improvements have become very popular. And when employed properly, cash developments are an excellent way to manage shortterm economic crunches. The application form method is most essential and straightforward and quick it?s not insecure. But is the outstanding development being fueled by these motives in demand for payday cash developments?
if-not, then what's? Lots of people could blame this rapid-growth on the economy. Growing costs on everything from gasoline to apparel is stretching people?s costs. The one thing s not increasing is salaries.
Effortless application and endorsement
Whilst it?s true that occasions are difficult, it?s not enough to describe the rapid-growth sought after for payday cash advances. What may be operating the requirement may be the proven fact that this type of short term capital is not indeed very difficult to obtain. in moments you as well as lower any active road or research the Net?ll find paydayloans, countless business providing cash advances and fast cash.
Regardless of what you contact it, anybody who obtains a constant salary and are at least 18 years of age could implement. Approval isn?t not independent upon a solid credit score as well as in most instances authorization takes significantly less than thirty minutes. People need simply supply a few particulars that are personalized and select the cash advance amount they might need. If authorized, funds usually are born into a client?s bank account the business-day that was next. The cash advance is repaid by people over a schedule that fits making use of their next payday; generally in about 10? Fourteen days.
Expenses are realistic
Something else that?s behind the remarkable advancement in-demand for payday cash developments could be the understanding that the costs billed for this type of advance are often lower-than the fees individuals are priced when they?re late creating a credit card or power repayment or when they?ve bounced a check. Besides these costs, late installments and inadequate funds may seriously damage a person?s credit. It merely doesn?t seem sensible to cover that kind of cash and risk harming your credit because a crisis got up along with your income occurs to not be adequate to pay your charges.
No rules on money utilization
Could the fact that you will find no limitations how you use the amount of money be pushing the growth in-demand for payday cash developments? It?s very possible. Once you apply for a car loan, you've to buy a-car. When you submit an application it, for a mortgage?s to buy a property. But when you make an application for a payday cash advance, the amount of money in whatever way you will need can be used by you. Put it to use to purchase property repairs or crisis auto, or to pay higher-than regular credit cards off like those who appear following the vacations. Because the income is yours to make use of when you choose, you might actually utilize it togo away on holiday! Possibly that describes the remarkable development popular for payday cash advancess that are payday.

What software is available for extracting metadata from an FLV? I'm testing an flv streaming module for apache (mod_flvx) and need to extract keyframe info from an flv for debugging purposes.
I was only able to find FLV MetaData Viewer, but its dated, from 2006, and doesn't install properly on Win7. http://www.buraks.com/flvmdv/
Edit: I'm open to any method of extraction, either app or library.
