WORKING MULTIPLE JOBS SUCKS! Moving on from that it's time for a game review, this time its "Project X Zone" for the 3DS. "Project X Zone" (pronounced Cross Zone) is a collaborative effort between Bandai Namco Games, Sega, and Capcom, and features characters and enemies from different game franchises created by said companies. Among the game franchises included are "Virtua Fighter", "Tales of Vesparia", and "Devil May Cry", there are also several new characters developed specifically for this game. Once I heard this game was announced it became the main reason I wanted a 3DS, so let's see if it's any good or not.
Story: An ancient artifact called the "Portal Stone" has begun warping space and time, opening multiple portals to different worlds and alternate timelines as a result. A group of demonic entities calling themselves "Oros Phlox" wishes to steal the stone to create a perfect world. Now heroes from these different worlds must band together to stop them.
Game Play: the game uses a modified "Super Robot Wars" battle system. Characters are placed on a large map and moved across it like a chess board; a menu will open up for the selected character where you can choose what actions you want them to take (Attack, Skill, Item, or End). Selecting Attack changes a certain number of spaces around your character yellow, you then select and enemy within those spaces to attack it, if an ally is within the eight spaces directly next to the character then you can call them in during you attack to deal extra damage. Skill opens up a list of skills that the character knows; these can do things such as increase your attack range, heal allies, or increase the number of spaces the character can move across during their turn. Item opens up your inventory, allowing you to use items on your allies to restore HP and XP (we'll get to that in a moment) or heal status ailments. Once you've selected an attack target the battle screen shows up, on the left are your characters and on the right is the enemy, to attack the enemy you hit "A" and a direction on the D-Pad, this means that each character has 5 attacks (A + no direction. A + Up, A + Left, A + Right, and A + Down) after one of the attacks is completed you have a brief opportunity to attack the enemy again with either the same attack or a different one, during the battle you have one chance to attack for every attack option you have (Starting with three at the beginning of the game and five by the end). Each attack leaves the enemy open for a different amount of time, learning the timing on the attacks in encouraged through the game though because if you hit the opponent with all five attacks then it will allow you to attack one extra time. You can also hit "R" to call in a support character if you have one partnered to you and/or hit "L" to call in another character to attack with you if one is nearby, doing either of these initiates a "X Hit" (pronounced Cross Hit) during a X Hit the enemy is frozen in place making it easier to hit them, you will also be rewarded with extra XP, XP is used whenever you activate a skill or use a characters "Area Attack" or their Finisher Move. The characters will also be rewarded with experience after a fight regardless of whether or not the enemy was defeated, you can gain bonus experience by landing critical hits, getting longer combos, by defeating the opponent, and by defeating the enemy with either your Finisher or with an Area Attack. Enemies fight almost the exact same way, except they can't use items or skills, when an ally is targeted by the opponents' attack you can choose one of three options, Counter, Guard, or Full Guard. Counter allows you to get four attacks off of the enemy after they've attacked you, you won't gain experience though, Guard obviously lets you decrease the damage you take from the attack, while Full guard completely nullifies all damage. Each of these also cost XP though, Counter costs 20 XP, Guard costs 40 and Full guard costs 60, I bring this up because you can only have a maximum of 150 XP, so you can't spam Full Guard. Boss Enemies may also use attacks that you can't block or counter, so keep an eye on your hit points especially in certain missions where if certain allies are defeated you'll lose the mission.
Music: Out of the 40 or so tracks in the game only about eight of them are original music; all the others come from the other games series that are featured in X Zone. I don't personally like any of the original songs, none of them are bad, but they aren't all that memorable, I personally found that some of the best music in the game came from the other franchises.
Graphics: The game looks pretty damned good for a handheld; it uses a mixture of sprites, animations, and still frames. The sprites are surprisingly detailed and move quit fluidly, while all the animations and still frames are done in each series art style and the sprites are made to stay as close to that style as possible and I really like that, One thing I was a bit worried about was that with all the different art styles the game would look somewhat cluttered on the boards, that wasn't the case though, in fact it actually helps characters stand out and keeps you from getting lost and/or confused during the game.
Issues: The original heroes created for the game, Kogoro and Mii, are definitly the least interesting characters in the game (it doesn't help that out of all characters they have the lowest attack stat) and the orriginal villains aren't much better. My other problem is that there isn't much interaction between our cast, by which I mean they don't really converse with each other, nearly all of it is them going over what they know about the situation or their enemies. By pairing up specific characters you can get some unique pre and post fight dialog but it's only about a sentence or two per character and has no bearing on the story. I also would have liked to have seen Minstrel appear as a support character for Kite and BlackRose (all from the ".Hack" series) so we could have the full party but oh well, and I would have preferred Trish as a support character for Dante and Demitri (from "Devil May Cry" and "Dark Stalkers" respectively) instead of Lady (mostly because I just don't like her character).
Interesting bits: A couple character choices are a little surprising. Such as Capcom actually allowing Megaman X and Zero to be in the game along with Tron Bonne from the "Megaman Legends" games, and that Sega didn't try to shoe-horn Sonic into it. I also found it interesting that they included Sanger Zanvolt from "Super Robot Wars" in the game since the series has never had a release in the U.S.
Final Thoughts: Overall it's a fun game and a great time waster, but I didn't really see anything that required this game to be on the 3DS release instead of the normal DS. I will also say that the more you know about the characters and games that appear in X Zone the more fun you'll have, I've at least heard of most of the games in X Zone and have played several of them myself so for me this game was like a giant fanfic dream come true. If you've only heard of the companies though and know about only one or two characters in the game (like big name internet reviewer ProJared did [note, I don't dislike ProJared, I enjoy his reviews and find him a funny man]) then this game is simply not worth your time. If you're like me though and have been dreaming of a game like this for years you should definitely pick up a copy, I would also say that IF you can find it for a reasonable price, buy a new copy since it comes with a poster of all the characters, an art book featuring the entire cast of heroes with back story on them, and the entire soundtrack, if you're not into all that then just get the game itself, if you're worried about not having any info on the characters whatsoever, you needn't worry, since after someone appears in the story you unlock info on them in the "Database" menu. I'll say it once again, the more you know about the individual games and characters the more enjoyable the game will be, if you know next to nothing though "Project X Zone" might not be worth your time, it's still ultimately your choice though and I hope this helps you make your decision. Share your thoughts, comments and if you have any question o didn't cover something you're curious about let me know and I'll answer as soon as possible, if you found this interesting or know someone who might like it then spread the link. And with that, remember, keep the getaway car running.

Trapp, @BCUhoops Can't Miss In 91-59 Rout OF SCSU
Courtesy: BCUathletics.com
Release: 02/03/2014
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. -- If every dog has his day, then every cat must have his night as well.
Mikel Trapp and Bethune-Cookman had that night Monday, with Trapp draining a career-high 33 points to lead the Wildcats' 91-59 victory over South Carolina State.
The Wildcats (5-20 overall, 3-7 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) tied the national record for three-point field goal percentage with a minimum of 15 made, matching the 15 of 18 (83.3 percent) of Eastern Kentucky in a January 14, 1987 game at UNC-Asheville.
Also, the 83.3 percent mark puts the Wildcats alongside BYU and Manhattan for the nation's best single-game three-point shooting percentage this season. BYU went 10-12 against Texas on November 25, and Manhattan was 10-12 against Columbia on November 12.
Overall, the Wildcats set a school single-game mark in shooting 70.7 from the field (29-41), surpassing last year's 63.5 percent effort in an 86-63 win over Stetson on December 3.
Trapp, who was scoreless when the teams met January 20, was nine of 10 from the field, seven of seven from three-point range and eight of nine from the free throw line.
Trapp's perfect night from three-point range was also a school record, and tied him with North Carolina-Greensboro's Nicholas Paulos (9-9) and Texas Tech's Dusty Hannah (7-7) for best three-point shooting night in the nation this year.
Bethune-Cookman used a 22-4 run that included four three-pointers to open up a 24-9 lead with nine minutes to play in the first half.
A three-pointer by Trapp 2 1/2 minutes later sparked a 13-0 spurt that extended the Bethune-Cookman advantage to 26 with four minutes to play before the break.
B-CU took a 48-22 lead into halftime and led by 36 twice in the second half -- 74-38 on two Tony Kynard free throws with 9:11 and 77-41 on a Clemmye Owens 3-pointer with 8:23 left.
Malik Jackson, who sank five three-pointers, added 19 points while Kynard finished with 10 points and five assists. Owens registered the Wildcats' other three from behind the arc and scored nine. All eight Wildcats scored.
Jordan Smith paced South Carolina State (8-14, 4-5) with 10 points.
B-CU travels to North Carolina Central Saturday.
"We made shots and took them [South Carolina State] out of their zone. They struggle when they go man-to-man."
"Trapp didn't score when we up there. It was good to see him make those shots."
"It was one of those nights. Each year you have one or two like this, and then some nights you don't know which team will show up. I wish we could carry this over."
"I was just feeling confident. We had a lot of good looks and we made them pay for it. They don't want you to shoot the 3-ball."
"It was just dropping for everyone. 15 of 18 is a great percentage."
"If we get it going like this, we can be unstoppable."
NOTES: Trapp's 33 points tied him with Syracuse's Trevor Cooney for the national high Monday night ... The team's 70.7 field goal percentage was the nation's fifth-best of the season ... The seven three-pointers puts Trapp with Antonio Webb and Clifford Reed at sixth on the single-game three-pointer list ... The 32 point margin of victory was the largest in a MEAC game in the Gravelle Craig era ... B-CU has now won three of its last four ... Jackson has been in double figures five straight games.

The Gazette
YORK TWP. — Zach Stopper started it. Then he finished it.
After taking an ill-advised shot and getting it blocked, Stopper got the ball right back on a run-out and converted a three-point play to send the Columbia boys basketball team on its way to a 58-51 Patriot Athletic Conference cross-division win over Buckeye on Friday.
The play occurred after Columbia coach Larry Babics used his last timeout with the Raiders (2-0, 1-0) up 53-49, in possession of the ball and 1:21 left in the game. The plan was to avoid being trapped and either take layups or force the Bucks (1-1, 0-1) to foul.
As soon as Stopper got the inbounds pass, however, he drove middle, pulled up and had a 12-foot runner blocked.
"I went for it," the 6-foot-2 senior said with a laugh. "It didn't work out how I planned."
Fortunately for Stopper, who had 10 points in the fourth period, 16 in the second half and 18 for the game, the Bucks immediately threw the ball away and he drove and scored with 1:07 to go. An official ruled he was fouled after the shot, and he made the front end of the one-and-one before missing the second to give the Raiders a much more comfortable 56-49 lead.
"We told him to split the trap right away, but we only wanted a layup," Babics said. "We got a little too excited at the end. We need to slow ourselves down."
Buckeye's problem was it got way too excited at the outset. Playing in front of a very large and very loud student section, the Bucks fell behind 14-1 in the first 3:27. They battled back to lead 47-44 with 6:26 left in the game, but the energy they expended climbing out of the early hole caught up to them down the stretch.
"We came out a little jittery," Buckeye coach Matt Saunders said. "There was a big crowd, our kids made more of it than it was and we put ourselves in a big hole.
"This is game No. 2 of a long season. This was not a conference championship. This was not a sectional championship. They wanted it to be rather than staying in the moment."
On the flip side, the Raiders were able to regroup despite making just 5-of-14 free throws over the first three periods — they made 7-of-9 in the fourth while outscoring Buckeye 19-11 — and falling behind early in the final quarter.
They did so because Stopper repeatedly used a quick first step and great strength to get to the rim, and because guard Jay Banyasz (19 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists) and big men Jacob Simon (11 points, 13 rebounds, 2 assists) and Kevin Simon (8 points, 12 boards) had monster nights.
Kevin Simon also did an outstanding job on Buckeye small forward Garrett Beck, who had 26 points in an 83-73 overtime win over Elyria Catholic in the Bucks' season opener. Beck finished with seven points and seven rebounds, but didn't get his first point until making a free throw with 28.8 seconds left in the first half. His first field goal came with 5:47 left in the third period.
"Our assistant told the kids that Columbia teams in the past might have folded," Babics said. "This team is mentally tough. These kids never panicked."
To their credit, neither did the Bucks, though they were hurt by a couple hurried 3-pointers down the stretch and a complete inability to keep the taller and more aggressive Raiders off the offensive rebounds.
"The biggest difference was they finished plays and we didn't," Saunders said. "We allowed them way too many second-chance points."
Center Jeff Miller led Buckeye with 12 points and eight rebounds, while shooting guard Cory Inman was solid all night while putting up 10 points, six boards and three assists. Sophomore point guard Ryan Grauel had 10 points, two rebounds and three assists, but got in foul trouble and did not score after intermission.
Columbia was down three early in the fourth period, but closed the game on a 14-4 run. Stopper started that spurt and then delivered the dagger when his mental mistake had a wonderful ending for the Raiders.
"I was very happy when the ball came back to me," he said. "It wasn't like we wanted it to be, but it gave us a lift."
|The Bucks won the middle two quarters 29-21, but were outscored 37-22 over the first and fourth periods.
l The teams' benches combined for five points — all by Buckeye's Nick Prest.
l Buckeye won the junior varsity game 67-48 behind 22 points from Tyler Hagmeier, 13 apiece from Nathan Polidori and Nick Wills and 10 from Mason Stanton. Brian Hershey had 20 for Columbia.

Petrodollar Recycling And Global ImbalancesPresentation by Saleh M. Nsouli1
Director, Offices in Europe
International Monetary Fund
At the CESifo's International Spring Conference
Berlin, March 23-24, 2006
I. Introduction
The surge in oil prices in recent years has been taking place in an environment of rising global imbalances. Starting around 1996, a large current account deficit in the United States has been matched by surpluses primarily in other advanced economies and in emerging Asia, and has been accompanied by corresponding shifts in net foreign asset positions. To promote adjustment, policy advice has focused mainly on the need to promote savings in the United States and to foster expenditure in Asia, while moving to more flexible exchange rates arrangements. The impact of these recommendations has been limited so far, and large imbalances persist.
The doubling of oil prices during 2002-05 has made the group of oil-exporting countries a major player on the global current account imbalances scene. The increase in oil prices has shifted large additional sums of money from oil-consuming to oil-producing countries. How oil exporters "recycle" this revenue becomes a crucial issue, not only in determining the economic development of their countries in the future, but also in affecting the orderly narrowing of the global imbalances.
This paper examines the issues at stake when considering the global impact of petrodollar recycling. It addresses four questions:
- What is the best definition of "recycling" in this context?
- What is the order of magnitude of the oil shock in the current context?
- What is the impact of the recent rise in oil prices on the global imbalances?
- What are the policy recommendations for oil-exporting countries, particularly with a view to contributing to the orderly reduction of the global imbalances?

Chris Pagano, the perv who would drive through streets of Northeast Philadelphia and ask women to watch him rub a slice of Swiss Cheese on his privates is finally under arrest today, January 16, 2014. He was arrested at his home in Norristown Pa. without incident. Pagano is going to be spending tonight inside a cell at the Special Victims Unit, police said.
He was first brought to the attention of police in 2006 and again in 2009 when he was arrested for asking a woman to rub Swiss Cheese on his penis. He was convicted of disorderly conduct in the 2009 incident court records indicate.
Last week, he was spotted in Mayfair and a hapless victim took a snapshot of him holding up the cheese as he was naked. That photo accompanies this article and has gone viral. While Pagano's current mug shot is not available as he is still going through the booking process, Philadelphia police laughed when asked if any Swiss or other brand of cheese was found in Pagano's refrigerator. A list of charges Pagano is facing has not yet been released.

I am biased, yes, but I had the prints of this through yesterday and it's a really cool feeling to see my 'books' as real BOOKS.
The best bit though was reading it properly with my daughter. Who laughed (as intended that is, not out of pity - I think...).

Topographic Survey to Be Performed to Provide Water to Producers of the Valle Department
La Guacimada, Goascoran, Valle December 5, 2008.- In the community of Santa Cruz a topographic survey is currently underway in the areas where the reservoir and the complementary works will be built to provide ultra low pressure irrigation water for parcels own by 24 farmers. This system will irrigate 10 hectares of farming land for crops such as watermelon, green pepper, zucchini, calabash, cucumber, among others.
Preliminary information obtained by GPS has defined the technical feasibility based on the data for the length of the distribution network, and the difference in height from the reservoir to the most distant parcel as well as the height for collection. Classification of the field data will define the project's final design and the quality of the reservoir.
Therefore, producers of Santa Cruz II are grateful and motivated since this project will guarantee their first and second harvest, since permanent availability to water will permit to increase and diversify their crops.
This project is financed by the Millennium Challenge Account and executed by CHF International, providing the opportunity for the partner communities to improve their quality of life through economic growth, making good use of water resources and soil by applying new techniques to improve the crop´s yields.

"Shalom -- I'm not a Middle East expert. I don't even play one on TV.
But being an actively involved Jew demands that I know what's going on in Israel, and that I get it from a variety of reliable, fair, non-sensationalistic sources.
Thankfully, the Internet makes it easy to be well-informed. Some have asked me what news sources I recommend for learning about what's going on in Israel. Here's a list of some of my recommendations, with some of my own idiosyncratic comments. If I left off your favorite news source or you disagree with my comments, let me know. But please take some time to become better informed about the situation - don't let the New York Times and CNN be the totality of your education. After all. . . it's free. . ."

Bedtime Battles, Part 2
What's going on here?
There are several theories about the causes of sleep disturbance in people with ADHD, with a telling range of viewpoints. Physicians base their responses to their patients' complaints of sleep problems on how they interpret the cause of the disturbances. A physician who looks first for disturbances resulting from disorganized life patterns will treat problems in a different way than a physician who thinks of them as a manifestation of ADHD.
Thomas Brown, Ph.D., longtime researcher in ADHD and developer of the Brown Scales, was one of the first to give serious attention to the problem of sleep in children and adolescents with ADHD. He sees sleep disturbances as indicative of problems of arousal and alertness in ADHD itself. Two of the five symptom clusters that emerge from the Brown Scales involve activation and arousal:
- Organizing and activating to begin work activities.
- Sustaining alertness, energy, and effort.
Brown views problems with sleep as a developmentally-based impairment of management functions of the brain - particularly, an impairment of the ability to sustain and regulate arousal and alertness. Interestingly, he does not recommend treatments common to ADHD, but rather recommends a two-pronged approach that stresses better sleep hygiene and the suppression of unwanted and inconvenient arousal states by using medications with sedative properties.
The simplest explanation is that sleep disturbances are direct manifestations of ADHD itself. True hyperactivity is extremely rare in women of any age. Most women experience the mental and physical restlessness of ADHD only when they are trying to shut down the arousal state of day-to-day functioning in order to fall asleep. At least 75 percent of adults of both genders report that their minds restlessly move from one concern to another for several hours until they finally fall asleep. Even then, they toss and turn, awaken frequently, and sometimes barely sleep at all.
The fact that 80 percent of adults with ADHD eventually fall into "the sleep of the dead" has led researchers to look for explanations. No single theory explains the severe impairment of the ability to rouse oneself into wakefulness. Some ADHD patients report that they sleep well when they go camping or are out of doors for extended periods of time.
Baltimore-based psychiatrist Myron Brenner, M.D., noted the high incidence of ADHD individuals among the research subjects in his study of Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS). People with DSPS report that they can experience a normal sleep phase — for example, get into bed, fall asleep quickly, sleep undisturbed for eight hours, and awake refreshed — but that their brains and bodies want that cycle from 4 a.m. until noon. This is a pattern reported by more than half of adults with ADHD. Brenner hypothesizes that DSPS and the sleep patterns of ADHD have the same underlying disturbance of circadian rhythms. Specifically, he believes that the signal which sets the internal circadian clock (the gradual changes in light caused by the sun's setting and rising) is weak in people with ADHD. As a result, their circadian clock is never truly set, and sleep drifts into to the 4 a.m.-to-noon pattern or disappears entirely, until the sufferer is exhausted.
One hypothesis is that the lack of an accurate circadian clock may also account for the difficulty that many with ADHD have in judging the passage of time. Their internal clocks are not "set." Consequently, they experience only two times: "now" and "not now." Many of my adult patients do not wear watches. They experience time as an abstract concept, important to other people, but one which they don't understand. It will take many more studies to establish the links between circadian rhythms and ADHD.
How to get to sleep
No matter how a doctor explains sleep problems, the remedy usually involves something called "sleep hygiene," which considers all the things that foster the initiation and maintenance of sleep. This set of conditions is highly individualized. Some people need absolute silence. Others need white noise, such as a fan or radio, to mask disturbances to sleep. Some people need a snack before bed, while others can't eat anything right before bedtime. A few rules of sleep hygiene are universal:
- Use the bed only for sleep or sex, not as a place to confront problems or argue.
- Have a set bedtime and a bedtime routine and stick to it - rigorously.
- Avoid naps during the day.
Two more elements of good sleep hygiene seem obvious, but they should be stressed for people with ADHD.
- Get in bed to go to sleep. Many people with ADHD are at their best at night. They are most energetic, thinking clearest, and most stable after the sun goes down. The house is quiet and distractions are low. This is their most productive time. Unfortunately, they have jobs and families to which they must attend the next morning, tasks made harder by inadequate sleep.

One of the big perks of being a part of the UT Austin community (students, staff and faculty) is that you can see the biggest new movies at the UT campus Texas Union movie theatre....for free!
Every Thursday night - usually at 6:00pm with an encore at 9:00pm - you can see the same movies that people who are not in-the-know end up paying for. Just check them all out at the UT Austin Texas Union Calendar website.
All you have to do is show up at the theatre. Try to show up early for the more popular movies, because otherwise the theatre may get to full capacity and you won't be able to get a seat. Then show the attendants your student/staff/faculty ID, and they will stamp your hand. You're allowed to bring one guest as well. And they let you bring food into the theatre, too!
Before the movie starts, the quirky student leaders who run the Texas Union theatre will usually show funny clips related to the movie as an cinematic appetizer, and then the movie begins in all its big-screen glory! There also often goodies like free posters. I got one last semester during Zombieland. And Starbucks marketed their DoubleShot drinks during Inglourious Basterds last semester as well.
Here is the schedue for the spring semester, from the Texas Union calendar (subject to change):
Jan. 24 Michael Jackson's This Is It
Feb. 4 The Time Traveler's Wife
Feb. 11 Paranormal Activity
Feb. 18 The Twilight Saga: New Moon
Feb. 25 Where the Wild Things Are
Mar. 11 Precious
Mar. 25 Up in the Air
Apr. 1 The Lovely Bones
Apr. 8 Nine
Apr. 15 The Princess & the Frog
Apr. 22 Sherlock Holmes
Apr. 29 Invictus
Don't forget to keep a close eye on that Texas Union calendar! From time to time, they'll throw in other fun movies just for the heck of it. Like I Love You, Man at 10:00pm on Feb. 24; Mean Girls at 10:00pm on Feb. 3; and Labyrinth at 10:00pm on Feb. 17!
So if you're a member of the UT Austin community (and who in Austin isn't?), then make sure you don't go to any of the regular movie theatres this semester. Why do that, when you can see so many awesome movies on the big screen for free?
If you paid $9.00 at any other movie theatre for the 12 first-run movies that the Texas Union is playing this semester, you would have paid over $100. So save your money and spend that $100 on one school book for your classes instead.

Is there any software for Ubuntu that can keep track of changes to a specific folder, and restore previous versions of the folder? It would be useful to see all the changes that had been made to a specific folder (so that if I modified a file by accident, I could quickly restore the file to its original state.)
Okay, for some reason I don't have the "comment" option to post this but note that this isn't an answer. I'm assuming you are asking if there is something similar to the "Previous Versions" option in Windows Vista and Windows 7 in Ubuntu? If so, I have not found anything native to Ubuntu. What I have done to mimic this behavior is install Dropbox and sync the folders I wish to have previous versions of and then restore the previous versions through their interface. It's a hackjob but it works for what I need it to.

The Mende syllabary was invented in 1921 by Kisimi Kamara (ca. 1890-1962) of Sierra Leone. Seeing how the British managed to take over his country, Kisimi concluded that their power was partly a result of their literacy. He decided to give his own people that ability. Kisimi claimed he was inspired in a dream to create the Mende syllabary, which he called Ki-ka-ku. During the 1920s and 1930s he run a school in Potoru to teach Ki-ka-ku. The syllabary became a popular method of keeping records and writing letters.
During the 1940s the British set up the Protectorate Literacy Bureau in Bo with the aim of teaching the Mende people to read and write with a version of the Latin alphabet. As a result, usage of Kisimi's syllabary gradually diminished and it was eventually forgotten.
Mende (Mɛnde yia) is a Mande language spoken by about 1.26 million people in Liberia and Sierra Leone.
The Mende font used on this page was created by Jason Glavy

The first photo of the baby girl was posted by proud grandpa, Bucky Deleasa, on his Instagram. Well, at least part of the baby. Her precious little hand is holding onto his finger. Then came the full photo posted of new mom Danielle and Alena Rose looking so sweet. Mommy is looking down at her bundle of joy and Danielle is glowing. It looks like motherhood is agreeing with her already. The baby is gorgeous as we knew she would be. Stay tuned for many more photos to come!
Congratulations to Kevin and Danielle Jonas!

No. 21 FIU Silences Wildcat Bats in Midweek Shutout, 6-0
Courtesy: BCUathletics.com
Release: 03/05/2014
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - The No. 21 FIU Panthers (12-1) brought Bethune-Cookman's (7-5) recent hitting success to a close on Wednesday evening, registering a two-hit shutout in defeating the Wildcats, 6-0, at Jackie Robinson Ballpark, snapping a B-CU five-game win streak.
"I just don't think everybody was ready to play today, which was really disappointing," Head Coach Jason Beverlin said.
The Panthers got on the board early, capitalizing on a B-CU infield error with a Gunnar McNeil RBI single through the left side to take the 1-0 lead in the second inning. FIU added three runs in the third, and also single runs in the fifth and seventh.
In the bottom of the second, it appeared the Wildcats could find some success against FIU starter Chris Mourelle, stringing together a pair of singles by Jordan Robinson and Matt Noble. However, the Wildcats fell short on reaching base after the close of that frame.
Mourelle (3-0) retired 23 consecutive Wildcats en route to the complete game 6-0 victory, striking out four Wildcats. Although the Wildcats barreled up several hard ground balls, FIU Edwin Rios scooped up eight assists on the night.
B-CU starter John Sever (1-1) takes the loss, allowing eight hits and two earned runs, while striking out four FIU batters.
Ranking 26th in the NCAA in fielding percentage (.980) entering Wednesday night's contest, the Wildcats struggled with errors, committing three on the night, each coming during an FIU scoring frame.
"We've just got to do a better job of defensively and make some plays, and that really changes the complexion of the game," Beverlin said.
The Wildcats return to action this weekend at Jackie Robinson Ballpark, facing Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference (MEAC) foe North Carolina Central in a three-game series, March 8-9. The Eagles (3-8-1, 1-2 MEAC) defeated Longwood, 16-11, on Wednesday night in Durham.

C25K W1D3 - I made it, Woo HOO!
Monday, January 05, 2009
The last few nights I've been reading a lot about runner's knee, and tried to implement a few things in tonight's run -and so far I'm less sore.
I didn't want to cool down after the workout, I wanted to keep working out -- I think that's a good sign!
My video experiment proved ...interesting. :) The camera was off center, so most of the time all I saw was the front half of my stride -which is okay since that is the main part I'm interested in. I overstride big time. I heel strike. My ankles roll out a bit in-air, but I don't know that it is too much. I need more arch support. In short, I'm beating my knees up - no wonder they're not happy.
What did I change tonight?
First off, I SLOWED DOWN. My paces were 3.5 and 5, down from 5.5/6. This allowed me to SHORTEN MY STRIDE and focus on not overstriding. I increased my foot turnover rate; I was shooting for about 90, didn't seem to quite make it that fast. Why 90? That's my triathlon training kicking in... which I'm kind of keeping in the back of my head for an end of summer goal.
The treadmill was set to a slight incline; 1.0 most of the time. I read several places (I wish I had the references) that treadmill work can mimic a slight downhill run, giving a tendency to overstride. I think that the incline helped.
I changed shoes, I changed insoles. I don't have a lot of choice right now, so I grabbed the best of both worlds that I could find, mashed them together and ran with it.
Seems like common sense... but my newest pair of shoes are now a size too big (thanks to a 70lb weight loss) and I don't think they're as best suited as my barely used (but older) 11s. The insoles are from my last pair of 'running' running shoes, and although they have a some miles, are better than the paper-thin insoles my 11s came with. Still could use some further arch support, but definitely improved.
ALLL this to say as I'm sitting here with frozen peas on my knees and Advil freshly popped, that I want to love on my knees as best as I can and tonight went well. They don't hurt, but they're happier with the veggies on them.
And to say WOO HOO!!! for making it through week 1! Mon-Fri-Mon is less than ideal, but at this point I'll take what I can get. :)

OMG! 70lbs weight loss! great going. I really enjoy reading this because there are a lot of great pointers. I've had knee problems for years and found it rather difficult to adjust with orthotics to this new running adventure. I changed shoes 3X finally I took the insoles out and lo and behold I felt less pain and enough support!
on finishing the first week! you are well on your way!

I want to close applications which contains some target words on their title or their name or in their text boxes, after they run.
For example if an application's title contains "keylog" then After running a third party application detect it and closes it. also the same with its file name.
Is there any third party application for doing this?

Snark bright, snark light first snark I see tonight! Hippo and goat and lurk as you like!
Good morning HummingLondon. I spent several hours in the ER last night because of not being able to eat/drink or take meds for 4 days without vomitting due to gastroparesis. After 2 bags of fluids, IV zofran and reglan, and IM zofran, they sent me home with many different meds in case one or the other didn't work. I'm thinking the nurse spiked my IV because I took a 45 minute nap and I've been energetic and hyper ever since. Not sure if I should be pissed or go ask for seconds.
Morning, snarks. I just wanted to say that I appreciate you guys. I love that there is a perfect blend of slilly and support here.
I sure was looking forward to checking out the "Daily baby sale" sites with a gender in mind this morning. Sigh.
Married to my beautiful Camilla 9/3/2010 and mommy to little Miriam 2/12/2013!!!
leywren- That's terrible! But yes ask for seconds of whatever that sneaky nurse is serving!
Amber- everytime I ear baby sale, I think of actual babies for sale, in which case, buy whatever gender you want!
Every time someone says amber I think they're post is for me.
then I remember that no one knows my name here lol
I've sinned grammatically, and I cant blame auto correct.
nevernakednails honestly I should probably ask the dr. When I saw him come in for duty he was in streetclothes, and looked like a druggie coming in for treatment. He came in to talk to me and my husband was like, wow. He was talking about meds from the 70s and how combos are the best way to treat this, and just try this and then see if I could find something natural. I almost told him marijuana isn't a medical treatment in Arkansas but bit my tongue. My dd thought he was great, lol.
nenvernaked, i do the same thing when people on here say laura, normally they are referring to mamalaura, not me!

The activation of a new battery
A rumor: new Dell latitude d505 battery charge and discharge cycles should be a way to activate battery performance.
Truth: This argument is not exactly a rumor. Battery from the factory to the hands of users there is a time lag as short as one month to six months. For longer battery time difference, the electrode materials will be passive, so manufacturers recommend the initial use of the battery is best for 3 to 5 times fully charge and discharge processes in order to eliminate electrode materials passivation, to reach maximum capacity. But usually do not pay attention to remind consumers to manufacturers mentioned here should not be the complete charge and discharge depth of discharge, but should be controlled at 5% to 8% either. Otherwise, a new battery is likely to be scrapped.
"The first three" charge
Second rumor: When buy a new Dell studio 1735 Battery , the best three times charge and discharge cycles, charging time should not exceed 12 hours in order to activate the battery maximum effectiveness.
Truth: Ni-MH battery in order to achieve the perfect saturation, need to go through "complementary" and "trickle" process, this time is generally about 5 hours. At present, lithium-ion batteries "constant", "constant" charge characteristics is to control the depth charge time 4 hours. Once filled, the internal battery will automatically stop charging protection circuit, so this is not scientific nor practical significance.
Some people have been tested using a mobile phone. Charger with a travel charger in the battery is fully charged, switch to the battery cradle charger to confirm the degree of saturation. When he discovered still on the battery charger cradle to charge, they think that the battery has not yet reached saturation. In fact, this lack of rigorous testing methods. The reason is that the indicator does not detect the cradle charger, saturated or not really the only standard reference voltage charger cradle the phone does not necessarily mean the reference voltage, so when the phone is that the battery reached, cradle charger may not think so, still charging, but is filling in, the only of its own know.
Rumor three: as long as rechargeable IBM thinkpad r51 battery used properly, it will cycle within a certain period there best to achieve maximum capacity.
Such as early nickel hydride and nickel cadmium batteries, if used properly, regular maintenance, will be 10 to 200 cycles points to reach its maximum capacity (the factory's capacity is 1000mAh Ni-MH battery in the loop 100 times, the capacity may to 1100mAh).
Truth: It's a battery in the Japanese products are more common in the technical specification of the cyclical nature of the figure usually seen. However, the current mainstream lithium-ion battery, this cycle peak phenomenon does not exist. Because the lithium-ion battery from the factory to the scrap, the performance of its capacity a little time for the loop, never had the capacity rebound phenomenon. Maybe a friend will ask some of the ThinkPad notebook users to deep discharge, you can restore the battery capacity. In fact it is only testing the software error detection only, the actual capacity of the battery did not improve.
Lithium-ion battery in the end there is no best? The answer is yes, it suffered with the ambient temperature change. In general, lithium ion batteries in 25 ~ 40 environment would show excellent performance. And by the low or high temperature state, its performance is being reduced. For example, you direct sunlight outdoors using a laptop computer cases, there is no longer used indoors.
Rumor four: two nominal capacity of the same (for example, 800mAh) batteries, if an actual measured capacity of 860mAh, the other is 805mAh, so 860mAH's certainly better than the 805mAh's.
Truth: In general, the different models (different sizes) of the lithium-ion panasonic cga-du21 battery, the higher the capacity the longer use. If the size and weight and other factors aside, of course, the higher capacity the better. However, the same for the two nominal capacity (for example, the above example) may not be the battery. Because the actual high capacity battery that, probably added in the electrode material used to increase the initial capacity of the material, reducing the stability of the electrode material used. As a result, dozens of the loop on the performance after the rapid decay of high capacity piece, while the capacity is still low strong. Many domestic manufacturers in order to cut costs, expand sales, often used this means to produce high-capacity battery. Users will find that after six months in the use of work time is much shorter. In short, the price increase capacity is to sacrifice life cycle, manufacturers are not material battery down the article, it is impossible to truly improve the battery capacity
Battery Save
Rumor five: If you do not use rechargeable batteries, should shine a power save.
Truth: In fact, not only has the above-mentioned rumors, full of lithium-ion battery in the end the preservation of the preservation or shine is sure to make many people confused? Answer to this question from the congenital defect about, that is "aging effect." Lithium-ion battery olympus li-40b charger in storage for some time, even without recycling, will be part of their permanent loss of capacity, because the lithium-ion battery anode material from the factory when they began their failure in history. Different temperatures and the saturation level of the rate of aging is different under the specific range can be seen in the table below.
Thus, the higher the storage temperature, the more full battery charge, the greater the magnitude of capacity. Therefore, lithium-ion battery for long-term preservation, the user should be controlled at 40% capacity, and stored at 15 or lower temperatures can be. As for nickel-metal hydride and nickel cadmium batteries do not exist in this "aging effect", after just a few long-term storage of full charge and discharge can be restored to its original capacity.
Sufficient follow-up to full power
Rumors of six: to charge the battery when the power is full of red adjourned after the charge 1 to 2 hours, this is conducive to enhancing the saturation of the battery.
Truth: laptop IBM thinkpad t43 battery generally overcurrent protection circuit, full power will automatically cut off the charging circuit, power supply equipment only to notebook, even if the battery and then charge 10 hours to no effect.
