Skip to comments.TAMING TIME: Time Management, FR Addiction-Control Tips?
Posted on 09/20/2004 5:58:27 AM PDT by BibChr
As the big 4-9 looms this Thursday, and I anticipate entering the fiftieth year of my pilgrimage, I took a day to pray, evaluate, think, regroup, analyze.
One particular shortcoming that leaps out is that I need to get a grip on how I invest or waste my time. There's a Bible verse that calls for "making the best use of the time, because the days are evil" (Ephesians 5:16). I realize that I don't. (You will note, at this point, that this is not a Breaking News essay.)
And while I don't at present share my species' particular habit of sitting in front of a TV, remote in hand, doing the click-click-click rumba, I do dance that particular dance with FR. Far too much! Only here, it's F5, F5, F5. Yes, FR is a good thing; but for me it is a classical illustration of when a good thing becomes a bad thing because of its misuse. It too often is, for me, an addiction, and I need to get a grip on it which, I figure, will be deucedly hard as the election approaches. But I must.
So I am asking you, the FR-populace:
I know we have a wide variety of FReepers here, including some very busy and productive folks who nonetheless do manage to FReep some. Lay your ideas and plans and "testimonies" out here, if you would, that all may profit.
Perhaps after the thread has been well-populated, I'll try to cull what I think are the best thoughts, edit them into manageability, and post them separately.
When there's some really great story happening, I find it hard to stay away.
Do you have a woods with brush to clear? (g) It's calling me right now...
Seriously though, I am looking forward to some thoughts on this so that I can manage my own time better.
Thanks for starting this thread.
P.S. Having a Franklin Planner and an IPAQ (or PalmPilot) can do wonders.
I stay away from the Hobbit Hole threads, thus limiting my FReeping time to only several hours a day. :)
Hey! He never wastes time on our threads!
I find I'm spending less and less time on FR. In fact, I'm thinking about leaving anyway. Politics and social issues are getting less and less interesting the more I realize I can't do anything about it. Frankly I find it to be downright depressing. There's some much of life to be lived, places to travel to,etc. No more time to sit in front of the computer and debate the undebateable. I've been reading more good books, discovering classic rock music and soul music, getting fresh air,etc.
He gave us up a long time ago.
I just realized from the volume of posts, they were Hobbit forming.
It is very important to share your knowledge with others. You are doing Gods work, when you participate, I believe. <p. We can not leave the world to the lies of the Godless.
The question then becomes how much time to devote to it? I settled on an hour and a quarter a day, with one quick visit in the morning before work, another after I get home in the early evening, and another before bed.
It helps that lately I've been forced to share my computer with my teenage daughter, so I don't have the time to get on it all evening! "Mom, I have to be IMing with Timmy, he's helping me with my French homework." Right.
Limit your time to freeping at work.
Hi Dan,
I'm almost your age, and I'm also a Christian (I noted your reference to Scripture).
Whether it's FR or another site, I spend WAY too much time on the Internet. When my computer broke down a few months ago, I purposely didn't get it repaired right away, as I wanted to see whether I'd miss it. I didn't miss it that much, plus I got a TON of work done around the house and accomplished a lot of other things I had been putting off. I probably would have been better off not getting it fixed at all. After all, we all lived without PCs as recently as a few years ago.
Don't be down on yourself; lots of people are online way too much. I think we must realize that it is an addictive behavior, and like all addictions, must be eliminated or brought under control.
My most productive days are spent when I heed Matthew 6:33: "Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you." When I spend a good amount of time in prayer at the beginning of the day, God seems to "order my steps" and I seem to accomplish more on those days than ever thought possible.
I have developed the habit of just checking for the little red notice. If none I continue with my day.
It's called a husband and a gift for speed reading.
There ya go. Give this girl a gold medal for time management. I don't buy the reply "payoff" for most of us. I don't post very much and rarely stay around for an answer. I read FR for news. I have an insatiable appetite for what's going on in the world. I like having one place to get a condensed update on the important issues. As you say, FR is a time management tool. (I don't require a great deal of sleep anyway)
Two words: WiFi, Laptop.
Take your FReeping with you.
Pinging some busy folks.
I'm appreciating the feedback, a lot. Remember: it's not JUST about FreeRepublic; I'm talking an overall time management strategy as well.
Julie Morgenstern books on organizing are really good. Some of the Franklin Covey books on time management are good as well. When I get up, I limit myself to two hours in the morning and maybe two hours at night. That sounds like a lot but I used to be on the computer for a minimum of eight hours every day.
I use the Franklin Day Planner system. One of my bosses made all of us take the seminar. We all looked pretty silly running around our office building with our leather binders. Hubby made sooooooooo much fun of me. A few years later he had to take the Covey system. Payback is fun! A few years ago Franklin and Covey merged. We are no longer a mixed marriage. If you seriously wants to develop some organizational skills, I recommend the Franklin system. It is all about organizing your life.
I too have considered what you are saying and struggle with the time vs the information, feedback and knowledge I gain or inpart.
I'm glad you are also looking at this from a biblical perspective.
It's all in the idea of who or what you're serving -- are you serving yourself, or perhaps God, or an employer, or as in my case, a husband? (that's the job God gave me, to be a good wife.) So, if I'm wasting time that doesn't belong to me, you could almost say I'm stealing from my husband when I sit here and let things that are important to him go undone.
I know I'm rambling here, and some may think what I said was a little bizarre, but I've really put some thought into this lately.
I think setting a time limit per day might help.
One specific I'm thinking of is something like saying, "In the morning, no FR until I've done my morning devotions [in my case right now, read Spurgeon, Bible, John Piper]; after work, no FR until I've done HS, spent 45 minutes on my doctoral program, and done one chore."
That's just an off-the-top-of-my-head f'rinstance. But, hm... maybe it's not really such a bad idea after all. And then maybe on top of that, "Only fifteen minutes of FR, and then no more until I _____."
I'll send you an email.
The weird thing is that FR has made it a lot less unmanageable. Before FR I got many magazine subscriptions, i.e, The New Republic, National Review, American Spectator, The New Yorker, New York magazine, First Things, and probably others. For 15 years or so, I was also getting the New York Times delivered on a daily basis.
In those days I read copious amounts of stuff I had marginal interest in because the material was there and the writing was interesting. I might read a 40 page article about some guy starving to death on a trek through Siberia or long articles about gay theater in Prague, restaurant/movie/theater reviews, anything on psychology, etc. It's not that I was *disinterested* in the subject matter, it is that I was *marginally* interested. And I had piles and piles of reading to catch up with. So I read all the time.
With FR I read what I am obsessed about -- politics -- and granted there is a lot of politics on FR, but I don't spend a lot of time on stuff I am not interested in. I read very little about movies or religion or sci-fi trends.
There are subjects that consume me, like Memogate, where last Sunday I was online for 7-1/2 hours (this was also the day of the Vets Against Kerry rally), but yesterday I was only on for 3 or so hours.
Politics is my obsession and hobby and I don't begrudge myself the time I spend on it as long as other priorities are accomplished. There are times when I have to stop after 45 minutes to clean and exercise and then when that is done I can freep to my heart's content. Since I can also watch TV or listen to the radio while I freep, that time isn't wasted.
The time I spend on FR has also helped me to make mincemeat out of liberals who are clueless enough to bash President Bush in my presence.
I guess if I weren't interested in politics but spent this much time on FR I'd be looking for a way out. But this is *my* golf, tennis, scuba diving, travel, carousing, porn habit, etc.
My conclusion: If there are other things in your life that are being neglected because of FR and you are unhappy about it, accomplish your other priorities and then go on Free Republic with a free conscience. If you have too much to do and cannot accomplish your other priorities and go on Free Republic decide how much time you feel is proper to devote to your hobby and set that as a limit. If FR is but one hobby among others (I do not have that issue!), you might have to set an even lower limit, maybe 20 minutes over coffee in the a.m. FWIW.
The trick with breaking an FR/ computer addiction is the same as breaking the TV addiction: stop turning the beast on. My McAffee at home is frequently annoyed with me because of the lengths of times it doesn't get the chance to update the virus file, because it's not on. Once the beast is on it becomes a harpy cry, luring you to the rocks, so leave it off.
I've taken it all the way to something I call "bubble time". During bubble time I completely ignore the outside world, no TV that might accidentally present some news, no internet. Only pre-canned entertainment like books, DVDs or offline computer games. Let the world spin a day without you, more than likely it'll still be there tomorrow, and you can always hit FR to catch-up on what you missed ;)
I agree. I think it's the "feedback" that the sight offers. It's like being an active part of the story in a book or on television. Why would you want to turn away? You may have something worthy to contribute and get an attaboy for it.
I have a porblem with FR and time management myself. I don't have a solution. Except to put an alarm clock by the computer and limit the amout of time you spend on it to an hour or two a day. When the alarm goes off, put the mouse down and slowly back away from the computer...
When you are done with this thread could you post another asking for tips on how to exercise while sitting in an office chair? ;-)
If we were liberals, we could sue Jim Rob for getting us addicted :-) I just make a conscious effort to turn off the computer and go do something else. I do try to schedule my free time so that I make time for exercise, house chores and other things in the evening. I try to make FR the last thing I schedule in and I set the evening limit to an hour, unless there's a hot topic that demands my attention.
I'm with you on this one, Dan..... I learn an awful lot here, but FR does tend to work its way into one's autonomic actions.
I'd say your already successful. Any advice on trimming down from 2, 3, or 4 HOUR gaps?
Also, I don't think there are any magical words to stop this dance except maybe~ discipline. (not an easy word)
Badray and some other freepers started up a think tank that is akin to what I'd describe as FR Live! Such a blast to have face-to-face dicussion/interactions talking about the issues of the day. You might consider joining something like that or starting one yourself.
Now, see, I've been on here too long answering this question.....;)
I also went to an assertiveness seminar. They told us to use the men's room. Nope. Not gonna do it. Won't happen.
,,, there's a lot of etc. out there. Great idea! Grab some.
I did that a few years back. The Guy and I were at a Halloween party at a local joint, and the ladies' room was jammed. Several Pink Ladies and I were not about to put up with that, so I led them into the men's room, which fortunately was deserted at the time of our sortie.
Many thanks for being so upfront about this. As you can see, "FReep addiction" is not uncommon and your thread is serving a great purpose.
I often tell people that I was "ADD" looooong before it was trendy. One technique I picked up for changing a less productive behavior is to establish a very simple log or journal. In this case, the simple act of writing down how you spent your time gives you a baseline for change. Log a week's worth of activity (say, Sunday - Saturday), then sit down with the log and determine what you want to change. Don't get down on yourself for what's in the past; focus on what you're going to do in the future (specifically, the next week) and treat yourself as you succeed in making changes. I'm told that many folks who succeed with diets employ a similar tactic.
It ain't easy, I know. I struggle with "FR-binges" all the time. Blessings to you!

Essar Energy, India Unit May Raise $3 Billion for Projects
Essar Energy Plc and unit Essar Oil Ltd. may raise as much as a combined $3 billion to fund the purchase of oil stockpiles in the U.K. and expand refining projects in India, an official said.
Essar Energy may raise as much as $1.5 billion in debt to buy crude oil and fuel stockpiles at the refinery in Stanlow, which it acquired from Royal Dutch Shell Plc, Chief Executive Officer Naresh Nayyar said on a conference call yesterday. The borrowing will depend on the value of the stockpiles, he said.
Mumbai-based Essar Oil's board has approved raising as much as $1.5 billion in foreign currency debt to fund ongoing projects, said Nayyar, who is also managing director of the company.
"There are two different loans and have two different purposes," Nayyar said. "There's an arbitrage opportunity in raising foreign currency debt and we hope to take advantage of that."
India's central bank has raised key borrowing costs 10 times since March 2010. The 7.5 percent benchmark interest rate is the highest among Asia's biggest economies, as India's policy makers seek to curb accelerating inflation.
Essar Oil is increasing the capacity of its refinery at Vadinar in India's Gujarat state by 43 percent to 20 million metric tons a year by September 2012 at a cost of $1.8 billion, Nayyar said.
"Completing the refinery expansion on time is important as it will help Essar improve margins significantly," said Alex Mathews, head of research at Geojit BNP Paribas Financial Services Ltd. in Kochi. "The refinery in the U.K. will give the group access to new markets."
Heavy Crude
The expanded refinery will allow Essar Oil to process heavier grades of crude oil, which are cheaper than lighter varieties, and help improve margins, Nayyar said.
Essar Energy said in February it would buy Shell's Stanlow refinery for $350 million. The refinery's oil stocks were valued at around $900 million on July 4.
Essar Oil rose 2.3 percent to 130.50 rupees at 9:25 a.m. in Mumbai compared with a 1 percent drop in the benchmark Sensitive Index. Essar Energy fell 5.4 percent in London yesterday.
Essar Oil posted a net income of 4.69 billion rupees ($105 million) in the three months ended June 30, compared with a 700 million-rupee loss a year earlier, according to an e-mailed statement yesterday. The company earned $7.38 on every barrel of crude turned into fuels in the quarter, compared with $5.79 a barrel a year earlier.
Essar plans to complete the first phase of expansion at its Vadinar refinery to 18 million tons by September and operate it at full capacity by the first quarter of 2012, Nayyar said.
Separately, Essar Oil's board approved a proposal to seek shareholder revalidation for an enabling resolution to raise as much as $2 billion through the sale of securities, the company said in a statement to the Bombay Stock Exchange yesterday.

Thanks for the advice. I had thought about contesting the ticket, but I really think it will be more trouble than it is worth. There is a question about past violations on the permit, but in reality the chances of me ever applying for one are very small. There is also space to explain what the violation was and why it occurred. I appreciate your thoughts though. I am glad that there is still a lot of interest in seeing the KTR continue on...in some form or another.
After being able to put a few days worth of thoughts into this fiasco, I think I can sum it all up best by quoting Edward Abbey, when he wrote "that there is a way of being wrong which is also sometimes necessarily right."

The Sudden Rediscovery of a Long-Forgotten Kid's Tale Has Britain Abuzz: Did Fergie Fudge Her Budgie Book?
In Hector the Helicopter, written by the late Arthur W. Baldwin, the hero is "very unhappy" that he doesn't get to go to the "exciting places" visited by the planes in the hangar. Budgie is miffed that he's not appearing in an air show with the bigger aircraft. To cheer up, each goes out for a whirl. Budgie becomes heartened when "the cold wind [whips] his cheeks." Hector, on his outing, enjoys himself "in the lovely morning air." The climax of both books is a rescue: Hector saves two shipwrecked sailors who are signaling from a rock in the sea; with Budgie it's two boys on a rock. On returning to their respective hangars, Budgie "never felt happier" while Hector is "very happy."
A spokesman for Buckingham Palace said he had "no idea" if Fergie, 30, had read Hector as a child, and her illustrator, John Richardson, declared in London's Today, "It's a coincidence." Although he admits that he hasn't read Baldwin's book, John Sargent, head of the children's book division at Simon & Schuster, Fergie's American publisher, also dismisses the charges. "Because of the length of the text, it is fairly common to have similarities in children's stories," he says. "I don't believe she has plagiarized anything."
This isn't Budgie's first encounter with literary turbulence. When Fergie's companion book, Budgie the Helicopter, was published last fall, its depiction of two swarthy men kidnapping a blond girl triggered accusations of racial stereotyping. Then there was the matter of the profits—Fergie claimed that most of the estimated $200,000 would go to charity and then reportedly pocketed the lion's share. There are no more Budgie books in the works, but the duchess is collecting material from the diaries of Queen Victoria. A more likely sequel: The Further Foibles of Fergie.

I have the following expression:
This simply looks to match a mathematical expression, where a user is prompted for terms separated by basic operators (ex: price + tax)
The user may enter more than just 2 terms and one operator (ex: price + tax + moretax)
I tested this expression in Rubular http://rubular.com/
With the terms:
a + a (MATCH)
a + a + a (MATCH)
a + a +
a +
a a
a + a a
Everything works, but when I use it in Ruby it does not work!
expression =~ /^\w(\s(+|-|\/|*)\s\w)*$/
I started picking the expression apart and noticed that if I remove the start of line caret it finds matches but isn't correct.
a + a (MATCH)
a a (MATCH) <-- this is not correct
Why is this expression not working in Ruby code? (I am using Ruby 1.8.7 p174)

What is cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS)?
Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) is a disorder that causes recurrent episodes of nausea, vomiting, and tiredness (lethargy) that are also termed as "paroxysmal and stereotypic." This condition is diagnosed most often in young children, but it can affect people of any age. The cause and pathophysiology is unknown, but researchers suggest genetic components may play a significant role in this syndrome. CVS is characterized by episodes of rapid vomiting followed with periods of completely normal health. Clinicians suggest this off and on again stereotypic vomiting pattern that usually consists of four phases is the diagnostic feature of the syndrome.
What are the phases of cyclic vomiting syndrome?
Cyclic vomiting syndrome has four phases:
- Symptom-free interval phase: This phase is the period between episodes when no symptoms are present.
- Prodromal phase: This phase signals that an episode of nausea and vomiting is about to begin. Often marked by nausea -- with or without abdominal pain -- this phase can last from just a few minutes to several hours. Sometimes, taking medicine early in this phase can stop an episode in progress. Sometimes there is no warning. A person may simply wake up in the morning and begin vomiting.
- Vomiting phase: This phase consists of nausea and vomiting; an inability to eat, drink, or take medicines without vomiting; paleness; drowsiness; and exhaustion.
- Recovery phase: This phase begins when the nausea and vomiting stop. Healthy color, appetite, and energy return.
What are causes, triggers, and risk factors of cyclic vomiting syndrome?
Episodes of nausea and vomiting can be triggered by several different factors. The most common causes of cyclic vomiting syndrome are infections (chronic sinusitis, tooth decay, for example) and emotional excitement (panic attacks, anxiety, holidays, parties) with positive situations outnumbering negative. Other triggers can include periods without eating (fasting), temperature extremes of hot or cold, lack of sleep, overexertion, allergies, ingesting certain foods (chocolate, cheese, monosodium glutamate), overeating, alcohol consumption, and menstruation.
Researchers have suggested migraine-related mechanisms may be involved. For example, patients with CVS have a family prevalence of migraine headaches and many patients with CVS that eventually resolved developed migraine headaches in adulthood.
Mitochondrial DNA (mDNA) may also play a role. Researchers have demonstrated that 86% of children with CVS and neuromuscular disease had mothers with a history of migraine. In children with CVS, mDNA showed high frequency of polymorphic changes in mDNA termed16519T and 3010A.
In addition, patients with CVS appear to have sympathetic nerve hyperresponsiveness and autonomic dysfunctions so that patients with flushing, paleness to the skin, fever, lethargy, increased saliva production, and diarrhea are at higher risk for developing CVS.
The stress responses -- psychological, physical, and infectious -- are known to trigger episodes of CVS.
Chronic marijuana use has been associated with CVS episodes and may be linked to nausea/vomiting through the endocannabinoid system, which is thought to play a role in nausea, vomiting, and stress control. Some researchers suggest that males younger than 19 years of age with CVS-like symptoms should always be asked about marijuana use.
It is not clear which factors comprise the highest risk factors for CVS. Most researchers consider there to be increased risk for CVS when several factors converge (genetic, autonomic, environmental, and/or nerve/brain functions), thus resulting in multifactorial causes and risk factors for CVS.

Glenn Beck and Al Sharpton Meet, Earth Remains on Axis
If these two can get along, maybe there's hope for the rest of us.
Last night, Glenn Beck had Al Sharpton on his show and the Earth didn't explode or erupt into a giant inferno. Nor were there any massive earthquakes or natural disasters. But there was a civilized discussion between two of the most hated men in politics. Maybe they got along so well because they didn't really talk about anything. The conversation centered mainly on how they disagree with each other but support the other's right to spread ridiculous opinions. They even largely managed to avoid awkward moments (exceptions: Beck thinking Sharpton is 75 and Beck attempting to equate tea partiers to Civil Rights activists). But there's a lesson in this story and it's an encouraging one: If Glenn Beck and Al Sharpton can even find things to agree on, maybe there is hope for the rest of us after all.

The word cavalry is derived from the French word cavalerie which means horse. Historically the term cavalry has been used to represent troops mounted on horseback. After the invention of battle tanks and the decline of usage of horses in army the term started representing tanks regiments. Which army first stated to call its tanks regiments as Cavalry? And when did this happen? Why are tank regiments called cavalry but not other mechanized regiments (e.g. mechanized infantry or artillery)?
Several reasons. First and foremost, they perform the same role on the battlefield, providing a fast moving spearhead.
It was noticed in pre WW2 Germany that the Germans were in fact building stocks of Tanks in their Cavalry HQ in Zossen, south of Berlin. This was also the German HQ during WW2. It is rumoured that a Civil Servant at the time stated that if the Germans could use Cavalry for their Tank crews then the British should to.

Atlus: Catherine sales exceed expectations in Japan, Demon's Souls still selling in NA
Atlus' parent company, Index Holdings, has announced in its latest financial report that sales of Catherine in Japan are off to a good start and have surpassed the title's initial sales target of 150,000 units, selling 250,000 units as of the end of February.
According to the firm, via Siliconera, Demon's Souls is also still moving copies in North America where the game has so far shipped around 500,000 units.
Another game, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Hunter, which is a social title that uses a cash-op model seems to be doing well too since its debut on mobile phone platform GREE in November.
It's nice to see Demon's Souls continue to do well and that Catherine exceeded expectations.
Catherine is due to release in the US on PS3 and Xbox 360 in early summer, after having topped the charts on release in Japan.

By Helen Pow
PUBLISHED: 14:29 EST, 7 December 2012 | UPDATED: 15:25 EST, 7 December 2012
The family of a woman killed after she was electrocuted by a falling power line in front of her two young daughters has been awarded $109 million in damages.
After a three week trial, jurors took 90 minutes to find Western Pennsylvania Power Co. negligent in the death of Carrie Goretzka, 39, who caught on fire then suffered for 20 minutes with the 7000 volt live wire on top of her.
The victim's husband, Michael Goretzka, cried as the verdict was read and afterwards hugged and shook hands with each of the jurors, thanking them.
Negligent: Jurors found Western Pennsylvania Power Co. negligent in the death of Carrie Goretzka, 39, pictured centre with her husband, Michael, and daughters Chloe, left, and Carlie, right
According to The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Mr Goretzka had complained on two separate occasions that power lines had dropped into his backyard, even claiming he feared for his family's safety, before the deadly incident on June 2, 2009.
On that day, Ms Goretzka was inside her Irwin, Allegheny County, home with daughters Chloe and Carlie, then aged four and two respectively, and her mother-in-law when the power went out.
Looking outside, she noticed a number of trees in the yard were on fire and rushed to her car to grab her cell phone.
As Ms Goretzka was standing on the side of the yard calling 911, the energised power line fell on top of her, setting her alight. Her mother-in-law, JoAnn Goretzka, tried to help but was burned.

Shocking: The mother-of-two was struck by the power line and set alight, leaving a sobering mark in the grass, pictured
She then waited for 20 agonising minutes with her granddaughters until emergency crews arrived and shut off the power.
Ms Goretzka had several fingers
severed from her left hand and her left arm was ultimately amputated
before she died of her injuries in hospital three days later.
Shanin Specter, who represented the family, said West Penn was responsible for an 'epidemic' of failures leading to the fallen energised line.
He accused the company of continuously failing to fix the problem by retraining its workers, or disciplining them for sub-standard work.
A company email from 2004 blamed poor preparation of the wires and improper splicing.
The jury of eight women and four men said the hefty award handed to the family was intended to force the company to be accountable for its actions.
'We just wanted to send a message that not applying safe practices across the board is not acceptable,' said jury member Thomas Swogger told The Post-Gazette.
Gracious: Michael Goretzka, pictured, is 'gracious' after the $109 million award
Hugs: Mr Goretzka, pictured, hugs and shook hands with each of the jurors outside the courtroom on Thursday
Mr Swogger said the fact power lines had fallen in the Goretzkas' yard twice previously was a significant issue for the jury.
'As a matter of public safety, the Goretzkas are representative of any one of us. It could have been anyone,' he said.
Another, unnamed juror, told WTAE News: 'Its been a very emotional experience through this whole trial and we just wanted to do right by the family and somehow ease their pain and suffering a little bit.'
West Penn Power said it may appeal Thursday's verdict.
'We'll be reviewing the verdict during the next several days to determine whether an appeal of any or all of the verdict is warranted,' a spokesman told CBS News.
Mr Shecter told the TV station: 'The family was very gratified by the verdict but nothing can bring back Carrie Goretzka she was a beautiful 39-year-old mother, wife and daughter.
Tragic: Ms Goreztka, pictured with her husband and children, was calling 911 when the live wire fell on her
'She suffered for 45 minutes from electrocution, 20 minutes of which the line was live, 7000 volts lying on top of her body.
'That is just unspeakably horrendous, her daughters witnesses this right in front of their eyes, her mother-in-law tried to save her and was herself burned.
'The jury's verdict is an important message to First Energy (the parent company of West Penn Power) that they have to fix their power lines in Western Pennsylvania. They have had a problem, it's really been an epidemic, of falling energized power lines.'
The judgment includes $61 million in punitive damages against West Penn Power.
Judge Michael Della Vecchia said the $109 million judgment is the largest personal injury verdict ever awarded in Allegheny County.

High school football: Westlake Thunder 2013 preview
James Edward
SARATOGA SPRINGS — The past few months have been a whirlwind for new Westlake coach Steve Clements.
Since arriving from his home state of Texas, the former BYU quarterback and state champion coach has been working feverishly at his new gig after being out of coaching for five years.
"I've only been here since June 3, so it's been sort of crazy and a lot of work," Clements said. "You have all the administrative stuff and then you have to put in a new system. It's just been a ton of work, but I'm happy to be back, believe me."
Clements is well-seasoned within the Utah prep coaching ranks, having previously been at Lehi for four years. He led the Pioneers to a 3A state championship in 2000 before moving back to Texas to be an assistant high school coach for a couple of years before focusing on private endeavors and teaching.
"It's been awesome just being a dad, being able to get home at a decent hour for the last five years, but it was time to get back into the coaching business," he said. "Coaching is in my blood, and I always knew we'd come back to Utah, so I determined now was the time and I'm back here at Westlake."
Clements has done his best to create a new culture inside a Westlake program that struggled to a 4-6 record last season and lost in the first round of the 4A playoffs to Woods Cross. The team makes the leap to 5A in 2013 and will compete in ultra-competitive Region 4.
Clements sees great potential for his new program, despite the challenges.
"It's probably not going to be a quick fix here — it almost for sure won't be," he said. "It takes some time to install a new system — I mean, I've only been here nine weeks. But I like the attitude of the kids and I certainly like the possibilities to do some great things here. I didn't take this job immediately, that's for sure, but after discussions and looking into it more I came to realize that we can do some great things here."
As for this season, Clements inherits a largely inexperienced team that has just six returning starters. Fortunately, the group of returning starters includes quarterback Gavin Williams, who is expected to start again this season.
"You do what you can with the group you have, and I don't know how good we'll be this year. But I can assure you we'll be competitive," he said. "I've met with the team. I've been with them enough to know that these are great kids who are committed to work and to be as good as they possibly can be."
As mentioned, the Thunder will have to compete in a tough Region 4 that includes powerhouse Lone Peak, a rising Pleasant Grove program and Herriman, which like Westlake makes the leap to 5A — just to name three.
"We're in 5A, but we really don't have 5A depth yet," Clements said. "I don't know too many 4A teams that could make the leap to 5A and still have the type of depth to truly contend their first year — probably Timpview, and a few others, but we're certainly not there with our depth yet. We'll get there though."
Clements' ultimate goal is to develop great citizens and fathers in the community.
"I want to teach these kids, through football, that they can be great successes in life," he said. "I've always been around football since I was young and I love the game. I believe the game can serve as a great benefit to everyone involved. That's the big goal here. I plan on being here for a while and I'm thrilled about the opportunity I have here."

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
Short answer: yes. It's far far easier to use a subdomain since otherwise you would need a proxy.
To extend on this, suppose you have site1, site2, and site3 on different web servers. Rather than trying to mess with a proxy, simply add a subdomain to your domain like
The more complicated method (if you can't have/don't want subdomains) is to use something like nginx to proxy requests for the specific folders to a remote site. This page has a decent starting point: http://www.kirkdesigns.co.uk/nginx-proxy-apache-access-remote-host-ip-address-using-modpraf
Again, it's much much easier to just add a subdomain.

The artist died early Saturday at age 70 in a nursing home in Alice Springs after falling into a coma, officials said. The cause of death was not immediately known.

Cheap graphics card for 2008 iMac?
Apple iMac A1225 desktop computers from 2008 came with the notoriously unreliable Nvidia 8800GS graphics card that burns out and turns the iMacs into bricks. Getting a new Nvidia 8800GS graphics card costs about $650 for the part. Getting a used one on costs about $300. Is there a cheap alternative -- something that costs, say, $50? As I understand it, the only alternative is the ATI 4850, which go for about $300 used. Yet I find it hard to believe that there are no other graphics card options.

Do I need HDMI on a 3D DLP projector?
I'm planning to buy a new video projector, and thought that while I'm at it I should buy a 3D-ready projector so that in a couple of years when there are more 3D movies available, I'll be ready to watch them. Ultimately I think I'll end up getting a new PC with Blu-Ray and probably an NVidia card to play 3D Blu-Rays, as per this AskMeFi thread. But do I need to get a 3D-ready projector with HDMI, like this Acer P1200? Or does HDMI not matter? I don't want to end up buying a projector only to find I can't plug it in to the right source a year down the line.

Preserving legacy: Renowned economist, speaker battles disease
But they loved each other, so they went to counseling. Within a short time, they were back together and by March they were enjoying what she calls a "rehoneymoon," She noticed that "he was emotional, but it was good emotion."
That was before April, when life as they knew it blew apart.
Thredgold remembers the testing at the hospital. Though his diagnosis is dementia, his memory is quite sharp. Emotion, judgment and inhibition are most challenged by early behavioral FTD.
The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration, headquartered in Radnor, Pa., explains FTD as a group of disorders that share clinical features. Its "hallmark" is gradual, progressive decline in behavior and/or language, usually in the mid-50s or 60s, though it has started as young as 21 and as old as 80. Those bearing its burden find it ever-harder to plan, to organize, to behave as they should or care for themselves.
The group's website, theaftd.org, says 10-20 percent of all dementia cases are FTD. As many as 60,000 Americans have it.
Experts in FTD at University of California San Francisco say loved ones may first notice apathy. One may become self-centered, emotionally absent, withdrawn, uncaring.
He spent 10 days in a psychiatric ward while they diagnosed him, fretful because he could not care for or build his business.
He tried not to think about the rest of what the doctor said. Something about an incurable disease, a lack of effective treatments and eventual death.
"I asked the kids to treat me as if nothing has changed. I see my kids and grandkids more. I am frustrated with anybody who talks about the disease. I am articulate, charismatic on stage, the best in the world at what I do," he adds.
Interjects his wife, quietly, an aside: "That's the disease. He was always a very humble man. If he knew right now what was going on with him, he wouldn't be able to stand it."
UCSF talks of impulsive behavior and conduct that embarrasses caregivers. Impulsivity and inappropriate behaviors like overeating, outbursts, touching strangers may be punctuated with restlessness, irritability, outbursts, emotionalism and other personality changes. They've seen some of those, says Taylor. They are braced.
What the experts can't predict is the toll on an individual or family — that Thredgold's adult children would sometimes cry for a dad now lost, that disagreements would blossom and rifts rise or that the house the Thredgolds built together will have to go.
Honoring legacy
Hanging onto the essence of a person and what they've contributed to the world is a universal quest in families where a mind-stealing disease rampages. Stefania Silvestri, 28, of Los Angeles, just published a book called "Beside the Mountain" about her family's journey with her dad's early Alzheimer's. He was diagnosed at 48, when his daughters were 7, 14 and 18. The book is a moving account of their efforts to honor his past and soften his present.
Silvestri, the middle child, remembers pretending he was still their father while longing alternately to escape and to take advantage of his weaknesses. She was, after all, a child then. She often baby-sat him, she says, and had to figure out ways to spare his feelings, to not let him know his little girl was in charge.
When her husband needed constant care, Silvestri's mother put him in a nursing home, then got a job there to make sure he was well cared for. Love and a sense of responsibility take people on a different journey than they planned sometimes.

I'm working with a library that uses "memcpy" to simulate dynamical storage data structure with direct access. It's important to note that I'm working on numerical operations that result with small data sets. How can I determine if a linked list would be more appropriate than memcpy in terms of efficiency?
From what I've found in the literature and online, benchmarks are considered quite evil.
I'm dealing with around 30 elements (from experience) of small size (3 component vectors : points in space).
What would you use in this case:
1) memcpy + direct access 2) linked list + linear search time

Eleven-year-old Charles Jacobs sat proudly on a bull in the arena at the Amarillo National Center on Thursday afternoon.
He held on tightly as the bull bucked, and he yelled for his mother to "count the seconds."
When the ride was over, he threw his hat and yelled, "Ninety point ride, boys."
The sight could have been like a regular rodeo bull ride, but this one was different. Jacobs is wheelchair-bound with cerebral palsy.
Jacobs was one of several children with disabilities who had the opportunity to participate in simulated events at the Special Kids Rodeo, part of this weekend's Cowboy Roundup USA. The event was geared toward children from the Amarillo area with physical or mental disabilities.
Bull riding, barrel racing, steer roping and a Western water gun shootout were among the children's activities. The teens participating in this weekend's Tri-State High School Rodeo Finals were also in the arena, working with the children, teaching them how to ride and rope.
The bull Jacobs rode wasn't real - it was a stuffed bull named "Tomato," and bars attached to it allowed the high school students to make it "buck."
"(Charles) rides horses for therapy, and he has gone to rodeos ever since he was little," said Charles' mother, Donna Jacobs, who is a nurse.
Another boy with cerebral palsy, 7-year-old Marco Kiesling, also rides horses as part of his physical therapy.
"This kind of attention is so wonderful for him," said Carol Kiesling, Marco's mother, who is a physician. "He used to be afraid of animals, but the horse was the first animal he came to love."
Cindy Burrow, coordinator of the Special Kids Rodeo, said the event is as much help to the high school students as it is to the younger children.
"They (the high school students) have been fortunate enough to be healthy, and this is a way for them to give back to those who might not get this opportunity otherwise," Burrows said.
Jessie Waite, who just graduated from high school in Higgins, worked with the children at the first Special Kids Rodeo last year, and she plans to continue working with them when she attends Texas Tech in the fall.
"You wouldn't believe how much this helps the kids, being able to pet the horses and goats," Waite said. "They're special, but you shouldn't set them apart from everyone else."
Marcia Garcia's son Joe was decked out in a cowboy hat and boots. The 10-year-old has Down syndrome.
"(Joe) doesn't get to be around horses very often, so this is a good opportunity for him," Garcia said.
C.J. O'Gorman, a 31/2-year-old who is language- and speech-delayed, enjoyed participating in the water gun fights and getting his face painted. His mother Wendy summed up the feelings of all the parents about their children.
"I'm glad C.J. came out," she said. "He had a lot of fun."

As a side note, if no discrepancy bugs you, then you need to start asking yourself why.]]>
It is reasonable to suggest that being a strict young-Earth creationist in your own home and personal life is harmless. I think the potential for harm comes in when you go from there to supposing that since this belief is right, it should replace heretical/wrong alternate ideas in the public sphere. This can lead to building "Creation Science" museums and claiming that Intelligent Design is a scientific theory that belongs in a science classroom.
Such developments are harmful to both science and religion. On the one hand there's potential to teach young people wrong ideas about how scientific reasoning works. On the other hand, there's the potential to give young people the impression that religious people find science threatening; that religious people need to combat scientific thought if they are to protect their beliefs.]]>
Just lasy Sunday I experience a conflict over that very thought. In my HP Group I am one of perhaps 2 or 3 that would (proudly) consider themselves liberal. Another HP who is definitly liberal says that I'm not liberal, I'm just a Democrat. Whatever the case, the group is predominently conservative. I think we usually do a pretty good job of keeping politics out of our weekly discussions but last week we discussed President Kimball's teaching on the Law of Chastity. We discussed the usual issues of pornography and the related dangers of that despicable industry. Then the instructor brought up recent legislation passed in the state of California that has obviously been influenced by "alternative lifestyles" that sometimes dominate the culture of that state. The discussion moved quickly to the issue of homosexuality and a quote from President Kimball was read. Without stating the actual quote (this may not be fair) I can tell you that President Kimball's quote from 25 years ago was much more harsh than the words we have heard recently from President Hinckley and other General Authorities, including Elder Dallin Oaks, relating to homosexuality and that quote from President Kimball heightened the tone of the class discussion to a level that I thought was meanspirited. I felt it was unfair of the instructor to focus on that statement without acknowledging the more recent words of the Church hierarchy. I'm not suggesting that President Hinckly or any other GA has spoken in favor of the gay lifestyle, but they have softened their rhetoric (that's probably the wrong term to use) on the issue. Call it PC or any other term but for those of us who count gay people as our friends (boy was that a cliche'?) it is welcomed change that I believe is influenced by the Spirit.
Despite my feelings about the atmosphere of the class I didn't take the opportunity to express my concern while in the classroom. I have since had a discussion with the instructor to let him know of my feelings.
And so it seems that just listenng to what the modern day prophets have said can sometimes be confusing. I prefer to listen to my heart, which of course is informed by the words of the prophets, but more importantly it is influenced by the Holy Ghost.]]>
Bret, good answer about the serenity prayer. Contrary to the impression I may have created, I don't spend much time worrying about how these issues will all be resolved, but I do find it extremely interesting and intellectually challenging.
I can't take credit for the Great Info Booth; that one belongs to my 9th grade seminary teacher.]]>
How much work is enough? I'd refer to the Serenity Prayer for that one:)
The "Great Information Booth in the Sky"! I've always called it the Heavenly Archives but yours seems more fun.]]>
I'm also curious as to why you keep referring to gay marriage. Not that there's anything wrong with it, but since you started this series out as a kind of scientific-type thing, it's kind of sounding like you have something else you're getting at. I'm not concerned, just curious.]]>
You bring up an interesting point, there may be a difference in how we respond to commandments vs. more abstract doctrinal questions. But even so, there is often a real conflict, not just an intellectual problem. As I pointed out, this may not be the case with the evolution question, but what about other issues that impact us personally? For example, if you are gay, and the church requests that you write your senator regarding the proposed amendment to the constitution. (btw, the church did not tell anyone specificlly what they should write to their senator, although I think it was clearly implied.) But you feel in your heart that although you peronally will obey the Lord's commandment not to get married to someone of the same sex, it's not right to deny other people the legal benefits of marriage based on their exercise of agency. There are other issues that can illustrate this point, that sometimes there really is an impact on your life when conflct issues arise.
Another note: my personal choices about whether or not to confront issues head on always rest on the assumption that reconciliation is possible. I realize that many people may not begin from that assumption, which would complicate matters.]]>

Obviously, if you are actually logged in and issuing a copy command on the server itself, the copy operation doesn't involve any workstations. ☺ But you seem to be asking about instigating a copy command from a workstation, that copies within a single fileserver and where the whole copy operation is executed by the server itself (subject to the normal access permissions and so forth).
LAN Manager, LAN Server, and CIFS
There is no way, now, to do this. There used to be, in the SMB protocol, a command for performing server-side copies, where none of the copied data need travel across the LAN. It was

There is a way to do this. There is a whole file copy transaction in the Netware protocol, and the Netware network redirector for OS/2 was clever like the LAN Server network redirector. So again, OS/2 workstations would exercise this automatically, as applications called
As with SMB/CIFS, there was no real way to plumb the Netware mechanism into MS-DOS proper for use by applications in general. However, there are Netware-specific extensions to the MS-DOS API. The Netware Client for MS-DOS thus came with an

If this doesn't solve your problem, please give more details.
I don't think windows will let you do this. It would involve you invoking the command on the remote server which you might not have the authority to do. In the past for these situations I've generally terminal serviced into the server and done the copy from there.
