Last week I had 6 teeth that had to be cut out. They gave me Lortab 10. I took it every 4 hrs. like they said to & it didn't even put a dent in my pain. The next day I went and got some Tylenol PM's to kick my pain & it did.

Enter the Dragon
When you walk into any club or casino, you can be sure to find the 5 Dragons poker machine from Aristocrat. This popular pokie offers players a unique bonus-filled gaming experience, along with generous winning potential and impressive graphics. It was the younger brother of the brilliant 50 Dragons.
Land-Based Origins
The 5 Dragons poker machine that you find at land-based gaming venues is basically the same game that you will find online. They feature the same format, payouts and graphics – the only difference is that one is available online and the other is playable in a slot machine cabinet at a pub or club.
As a land-based poker machine, 5 Dragons is hugely popular among casino and club goers. It is one of Aristocrat's best-performing titles. So, when the developer started making online pokies, 5 Dragons was one of the first games to make the transition into the online gaming market. Today, the online version of the game continues to be a favourite among modern gamers.
5 Dragons started life as a Land-based Pokie
Game Format
Aristocrat's 5 Dragons pokie has a unique format in which there are no paylines. Instead of wagering on paylines individually, the player places one wager for every potential winning combination. Since there are 243 Ways to Win, the game offers players impressive winning potential each time they spin the reels. This is quite a new format that is available on many modern games, and it is popular among players as it makes wagering on pokies more affordable in the long term.
The game also offers up many different wagering possibilities with denominations ranging from 1c to 10c. So, no matter what type of gaming budget you have, you will be able to enjoy 5 Dragons. Whether you're a high roller or a penny pokie player, you will certainly get your money's worth while spinning the reels on this popular free pokies game.
5 Dragons Ante Bet
Another unique feature of 5 Dragons is its additional 'Ante' button. When spinning the reels, you can choose to hit the '5 Reeks + Extra' button, which allows you to place an ante on the game. At first, it does not seem to do much – but it does help to increase your overall payout percentage in the bonus game. This is a great extra touch that really enhances the gaming experience. While 5 Dragons is still fun without the Ante bet, some players will really appreciate being able to increase their potential payouts with the click of a button.
Free Spins
Players can trigger the bonus game when three of the five dragons appear on reels 3, 4 and 5. When this happens, the player is prompted to pick a particular setting. Each setting offers up a different number of free games and an additional wild symbol that offers up a unique multiplier.
- 20 Free Games with a 2x, 3x or 5x multiplier on wild wins
- 15 Free Games with a 3x, 5x or 8x multiplier on wild wins
- 10 Free Games with a 5x, 8x or 10x multiplier on wild wins
- 8 Free Games with an 8x, 10x or 15x multiplier on wild wins
- 5 Free Games with a 10x, 15x or 30x multiplier on wild wins
Which round you choose is entirely up to you. It depends how big of a risk you'd like to take. If you like to live dangerously, we recommend playing the 5 Free Games. If you're a more cautious pokie player, then go for the 20 Free Games. No matter what option you choose, you are in for some very generous bonus wins!
5 Dragons is one of the most popular games on Online Pokies 4U
Reel Power
Another great feature of 5 Dragons – both in the land-based and online versions – is that the game runs on a multiway format. This means that players are provided with 243 different ways to win right off the bat, rather than require them to wager on an increasing number of paylines for more chances to win. This is a remarkable feature for any poker machine – in traditional or online casinos – and it's no wonder that 5 Dragons has become such a popular game worldwide.
If you enjoy the format of this game, there are plenty of other Reel Power Aristocrat pokies. These include: Buffalo, Asian Beauty and Choy Sun Doa. You can also find 243 Ways to Win pokies from other developers like Net Entertainment. Some examples include: Immortal Romance, Terminator 2 (Microgaming) and Twin Spin (Net Entertainment).
The game has become so popular that it has spawned several spin-offs, including 5 Dragons Legends. This is a version of 5 Dragons with extra bonus features, such as base game multipliers and an increased max bet. The spin-off increases the appeal of 5 Dragons to a wider range of players. So, if you love 5 Dragons but wish you could wager more or, want a little extra volatility, you can play 5 Dragons Legends – but, remember, this title is only available in land-based casinos.
Check our complete list of the best land-based slot machines in Australia for more options. Online Pokies 4U would not be much of a slot site if we did not have reviews of the best club, pub and casino pokies out there at the moment.

Cruz Blames Reid, Democrats for Looming Shutdown
Sen. Ted Cruz sought to cast Democratic leaders as the villains in the ongoing government shutdown saga Sunday, saying they are absolutists who are unwilling to compromise.
House Republicans have tied changes to the president's health-care law to legislation to keep the government funded – an arrangement that Senate Democrats have deemed a nonstarter. With next steps unclear, the two chambers have reached a standoff, but Mr. Cruz (R., Texas) suggested Sunday that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid would be responsible if the government shuts down.

"So far, Majority Leader Harry Reid has essentially told the House of Representatives and the American people, 'Go jump in a lake,'" Mr. Cruz said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "He said, 'I'm not willing to compromise. I'm not willing to even talk.'"
The Texas senator has sided with House Republicans in the ongoing fiscal battles. Last week, he decried the flaws in the Affordable Care Act in a 21-hour speech that drew attention to his position but did not delay Senate action on legislation to fund the government.
Early Sunday, the House passed a plan to keep the government funded through Dec. 15 but attached to the bill a one-year delay of the health law's mandates and a repeal of the medical-devices tax. Mr. Reid called the measure "pointless." President Barack Obama has made clear he would veto any measure that defunds or delays his signature health-care law.
Mr. Cruz said the Senate needs to act, adding that Mr. Reid should call lawmakers into session on Sunday. The Senate is not scheduled to reconvene until Monday afternoon. The fiscal year expires at midnight Monday.

Mr. Cruz said that a government shutdown is not an acceptable outcome, but he blamed Democrats and, more specifically, Mr. Reid for that prospect, invoking the majority leader's name every time he mentioned a shutdown.
"I don't want a government shutdown," Mr. Cruz said. "I don't think Harry Reid should shut down the government."
House Republicans' willingness to delay the law known as Obamacare instead of defunding it represents a compromise, he said. Mr. Cruz also praised the House for passing legislation that would pay military personnel if the government shuts down.
"Right now, Harry Reid and President Obama have been essentially holding the military hostage, threatening their paychecks over this potential shutdown they might force," he said.
Sen. Tim Kaine (D., Va.) said Sunday that the Senate likely would pass legislation to continue paying military salaries in the event of a shutdown.

Skip to comments.Barack Obama 'too tired' to give proper welcome to Gordon Brown
Posted on 03/07/2009 12:16:38 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet
click here to read article
Um, what exactly did this man and his cadre of buffoons expect?
He's the leader of the free world.
He can't afford the luxury of being "overwhelmed". This is further proof that he and his administration just had no clue what they were getting themselves into.
It's not just enough to win a campaign, and you can't run a country with speeches rife with rhetoric.
I guess I would be tired too if my goal was to demolish a 233 year old capitalistic democracy into a fully functioning socialist regime in a 5 week period.
Mr. Obama thought that running the government was going to be as smooth and easy as running his "well-oiled machine" of a campaign.
If he can't even accomplish getting dinner and gifts right with another family, what the hell kind of faith should we have in his ability to hold the office?
We're in trouble...
France and Germany your only allies???
You retard how many have they lost in support of YOUR initiative on the war on terror. I served in the Royal Marines in support of this Coalition and if True Americans were as you are I would have gladly served with the Taliban against you.
The French Government today raised its Terror alert from RUN to HIDE. The only two higher levels being, SURRENDER and COLLABORATE.Precautions being taken follow the complete destruction of the National WHITE FLAG PRODUCTION FACTORY outside Paris, thus effectively crippling Frances military Capability.
Gorden Brown is white isn't he? wink wink
I believe we are viewing Obumo's first-hand disdain for caucasians from any country. They must swoon and suck up his spit to be treated with some half ass faux respect.
America now has a truly racist tribal unit in the White House. I hope the POS, who voted for this disgrace are in the soup line for infinity.
Just The Facts,
I believe the word (Incomptent) best describes obumo and his communist ilk occupying our White House.
A Matter Of Fact,
I realize that some conservatives think it's pointless to whittle away at BO's image, but it worked on Bush didn't it? Bush would have been impeached by now if he had all the baggage BO has.
We might not have the firepower of the left wing media, but every little bit helps. I accidentally got into an a debate with a democrat car repairman a few days ago. I don't pick fights with guys who fix my car, but it erupted anyway.
He was completely on the defensive when I mentioned how the only guys who want to raise taxes are the tax cheats. He fled to the 'everybody does it' defense. I mentioned the audit of Paula Jones and Linda Tripp. He shrugged that off as 'they deserved it'. I mentioned the seven year audit of Jerry Falwell and his vindication. He said that Falwell made too many enemies.
OK, so it's the 'everybody does it defense' right? This is how you turn the tables on them. I told him that Hannity and Boortz deliberately overpay taxes to avoid audits. And I challenged him to mention one Republican who was caught cheating. Was Romney caught cheating on taxes, I asked. Name one. And name one example of a democrat being harassed by an audit. He had no answer. Sure, he did not capitulate on the spot — only liars do that. But you crack their defense mechanism.
[If he was informed, he could have mentioned that Nixon wanted to sic the IRS on his enemies, but never forget that Nixon was forced out by his own party. Republicans don't put up with tyrants while democrats elevate them.]
He thought it would always be a "Slappin Some Skin Session or just a Shuckin, Jivin and Guffawin Demonstration."
Obumo will fail, due to his inablity to ever grasp the true meaning of what America stands for in life.
Duty, Honor and Country,
Yes Obumo was good at instigating the minority communities about the evil caucasians in America, who cused them to fail in life.
Obumo Zero is nothing more than a mulatto trouble maker, who thrives off the uneducated/hate filled malcontents living on the gubmint tit.
One can dress an idiot in a suit, but he still remains an idiot.
I Know What Good Is,
I believe the (Looterman) is better qualified than Ozero.
Sure Your Right,
and what are we going to do about other than talk about it on here? I still haven;t seen the American public organize against the soft overthrow of the American government.
AMillion Man March is a start but seems to me conservatives do a lot of complaining and not much DOING.
and we know hes 48 yrs old b/c of his birth records correct ???
Yes, what are we the Conservative American People going to do about it?? We will use the legal channels of grievance and petition for a recall and or impeachment.
One good man or woman can make a difference in life. Secession is another form of expression for Americans in various conservative states to express our grief.
Perhaps we could all become (community organizers)for it seems to be a ticket to success.
P.S. what are you ideas my friend??????
Stomping The Lawn,
We in the UK are like yourselves suffering from a very unpopular form of government, thrust upon us as you by those who wanted change just for changes sake. We also like you have the expression "If it ain't broke don't fix it".
Unfortunately some people never heed what grandma says and rush in.
Obama will not like us in the UK as for what he believes we did to his kinfolk in days of yore. That alone should ring warning bells as as the most senior politician in the world he should be above petty grievances. As he seems not to be, can we expect the United States Navy to be smuggling waves of MAU MAU onto our remote beeches, will the same be shelling Hartlepool soon? and do we need to have another burning the white house down session? Mind you I think that if we did try and burn the White House down again, providing the Kenyan was at home,we would have to fight Americans to strike the match. So commiserations to you all but there must be comfort in those few words "ONLY FOUR YEARS" or IMPEACHMENT. Is binden related to BIN......LA......DEN, and why does Obama party for? I did not think Muslims drank alcohol
Gordon Brown's first name is James. Maybe BO got confused & thought Brown was there for the Wednesday night party?
Come on, quit making excuses for this arrogant mealy-mouthed lying slime ball
Come on, can't you see Obama going on Oprah's show with that Dr OZ guy discussing his Chronic Fatigue Syndrome? LMAO
The official White house attire for a Tired President 'The Snuggie'
LOL Overwhelmed!
Destroying the country is hard work.
And to admit before all of our enemies that the POTUS is overwhelmed?
That's just asking for it.
Plenty of time for partying on Wednesdays though.
The lefty nutballs are going crazy over this.
What a putz!
I don't know what OJT means.
I suppose I should have ended my comment with /end extreme sarcasm
I thought the dripping sarcasm in my comment would be blatantly obvious to all.
Thank you for your service
Yep. I responded in Post 484 to your comment on the open Forum where you are complaining that it is "a shame" that other FReepers consider this a worthwhile thread while you consider it a "piece of garbage".
It is a darn shame that a fine column written by Thomas Sowell and posted here in FR receives 30 replies and this piece of garbage tabloid article now has over 400, .... JustaDumbBlonde
When your opinions are challenged, you play the victim. Some sarcasm on your part is O.K. Some sarcasm on my part is "rude".
It's O.K. for you to complain that FReepers that had responded to this thread were flocking to "garbage" but, when the international importance of the thread is debated with you, you turn into a Drama Queen.
You say you don't want to discuss the issues of the thread with me any more so I say, "Fine. Then don't reply to me any more. And, if this thread is such 'a shame' and ' piece of garbage', there are dozens of other threads on FR that are probably to your liking."
Then, you reply to me AGAIN and get even more ballistic.
If you post on the FR open Forum, your views will be challenged.
If you can't tolerate your views being challenged, don't post in the open Forum.
That's the way political Forums on the Internet work.
If you get insulted because your views are challenged after "something that you said to someone else" then use FReep Mail. Then, the discussion will just between you and that other person and nobody else on the open Forum will challenge the opinions that you seems totally incapable of defending by means other than playing the victim and throwing a temper tantrum.
Thank you for your service and thank you to the rest of Great Britain.
Through the intoxication of the minds of the masses, both in America and, you must admit, Britain and the rest of Europe, Barack Obama has ridden a wave of irrational enthusiasm to become President of the United States.
The irrationality of the masses cannot be seen more clearly than in the fact that this man and this Administration does not realize that Great Britain and the United States have a special relationship like no other in the 20th and 21st Centuries.
If there is a Western Civilization today, it is in thanks not only to the Pax Americana but also to Britain's Finest Hour without which the Pax Americana would never have been possible.
And how many vacation days has this guy already taken? As I recall, more than any other president ever. If he can't handle the stress and strain of the office, and the economic mess he created, then he should resign.
And the word "overwhelmed" was quoted, as if someone in the Obama admin was giving it as an excuse for their ineptness.
It was obvious to me.
Thank you for your service
I join you in thanking rumrat for his service.
My apologies to you, I had read a few threads and it seemed in a lot of them that the people in the States assume that we in this country endorsed Obama as our choice.
This is not true, the leadership may have ,but then again they would he is their opposite number in this country.
We are as fed up with Brown as you seem to be with the Kenyan. We all thought when he came to the states(Brown) they would MAU MAU MOWSEY on down to the coral and be big buddies. Just goes to show the old British adage is true..........You can take the man out the jungle .....but you cant take the jungle out of the man.
>>>"And that leaves Hillary. No problem, Bill will probably have her knocked off and try to assume office."<<<
Actually, no, that leaves Senator Robert Byrd (D-WV) `formerly' of the Ku Klux Klan, as president: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_presidential_line_of_succession
Thank you for your service, FRiend!
That's what friends do!
From the feed back I been getting on these threads I think the target for our next assault on enemies of our state's should be the Press or at least the press that's been working for the Kenyan man apparently most of the UK was behind him. I got to tell you most = Gordon's Crew, and the rest of us were struggling to know who he was until a few days before his election.
We don't vote in our own elections so why we should stick our shonks into yours is beyond me. Most Brits are so politically naive they think OBAMA is a STATE.
And its Monday now in the UK and bed time. All of you at NORAD keep your eyes peeled no nodding of whilst I'm asleep in my bed. Tell OBAMA to keep the noise down if its party night as I am tired I do actually do something. If he's working late and his missus is at a loose end she can come around my house. But only if I get a Helicopter. I know Mombasa well so we can talk about the K boats or tusks. Obama might even do me a wood carving.
So unlike Vietnam I will say
And Michelle,get rid of that damn Franklin bust.I need a place for my velvet MALCOLM X poster.I don't care if it was a gift from King George to John Adams.I don't care if it belongs to the American people and not me.Don't bother with the welcome wagon.He can catch a cab.Allies,hell we still got Australia.This guy-what's his name again-probably owned slaves two hudred years ago anyway.i got p-diddy comin' fo lunch so cancel the rest of my day.what? Congress on the phone?Let the machine pick up,my teleprompter is in the other room.
I suspect what we have here is that our "dear leader" is a megalomaniac and doesn't take direction or even suggestions too well....
I just saw this quote. Is it possible that this is accurate? If so, I have truly overestimated the intelligence of this crowd...
I wonder if polio-ridden FDR was "too tired" to treat Churchill's office with the respect it deserves.
He has a chip on his shoulder because his father and paternal grandfather were communist Kenyans. Not even Hillary Clinton would stoop this low.

E3 2009 is only a few weeks away, and I am very excited to learn what Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft have up their sleeves for the upcoming year. There are many games that I am looking forward to learning more about. Here are five in particular that I am keeping an eye out for and why I am so excited to learn more about them.
5. Alan Wake: Alan Wake is the new game developed by Remedy Entertainment the company that brought you Max Payne. This game still has much mystery around it, but from what I have seen from the trailers looks amazing. The premise of the game that I know so far is that Alan Wake is a writer who has a bad case of writers block and has not written anything in two years. His wife brings him to a town called Bright Falls, but she disappears and one by one everything from his latest book starts to become true. It looks super scary and I highly recommended you guys check out the trailers for the game. This could be a huge game in Microsoft's lineup.
4. Final Fantasy 13: This game has been in development for so long, and we still are very clueless to what it's going to be about. Luckily, there was a playable demo that came out last month in Japan so I am expecting big things this year for FF13 at e3. Hopefully we will learn more about the story, and it should be playable on the floor. If we are lucky we can actually get a set in stone release date.
3.Heavy Rain: Heavy Rain is a game that is developed by the company Quantic Dream. Some of their notable games are Omrikon: The Nomad Soul and Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy). This game is very interesting and I will be keeping a close eye on it. They have already announced a playable demo at e3 so we will learn a lot more about this interesting game. From what I have seen so far looks amazing. The graphics are top notch, the story is dark and twisted, and the gameplay is something that I have never seen before in a game. This is a game that could sneak in and be game of the year and a system seller for the PS3.
2. God of War 3: Ever since this was announced last year I have been anticipating this game like no other. Kratos has become the signature character for Sony, and I have a feeling this is going to be highlighted the most at the Sony press conference at e3. Hopefully we will get some game play footage and a release date hopefully somewhere down the road this year.
1. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves: This is going to be a great year for the company Naughty Dog. One of my favorite games of all time is Uncharted: Drakes Fortune so you can see why I am so excited about this game. I am hoping we learn more about the story during e3, and more about the multiplayer that they will be doing with Uncharted. Uncharted is another game that will be a great exclusive to have in Sonys camp.

Picross DS
Believe that math can be awesome. Our review.
Picross DS, though -- Picross is great! Really great. Which is weird, because it's a game about math. Well, sort of. It's not so much about fitting numbers into a grid as it is using numbers to create pictures in the grid. Picross -- that is, "picture crossword" -- includes a hundred or so different puzzles to solve.
Rather than scribbling numbers inside the grids (which range from five-by-five to 25-by-25), though, the numbers are given to you outside the grid, aligned as sets by column and row. These sets simply define which spaces in the grid are colored in; for instance, a 10-square column with the values four, two, two has eight squares filled in groups of four, two, and two. The other two squares are empty, located between the darkened spaces.
|[Click the image above to check out all Picross screens.
It starts simple, but ramps up in difficulty fairly quickly. A row or column with every space accounted for by the numbers is a no-brainer, but after the first few puzzles you soon begin to encounter numeric sets which don't account for everything, or puzzles with large blank areas. This is where the logic comes into play; by comparing the relationships between the values of different rows and columns, it's possible to determine where the filled spaces fall. Deduction is essential, although trial and error also works in certain modes.
What really makes Picross great is that it doesn't force you to solve puzzles with brute mathematical reasoning alone. Intuition factors in, too. The numbers and grids feature an artistic touch -- they are, after all, depicting an image. When you find your left brain stumped, you can often save the day by letting the other hemisphere take charge. If the theme for this set is animals, and this puzzle looks like it's shaping up to be an elephant, then that one area that has you stumped is probably a tusk that works like so.
After a while, you begin to develop a sense of when you should go by the numbers and when you should take a wild guess at what to do next, which is a helpful instinct to have given the insanity of the later puzzles -- grids up to 25-by-25 with large areas left blank.
|[Click the image above to check out all Picross screens.]
As with any puzzle game, though, sooner or later a dedicated player will solve even the most daunting challenges, at which point the replay value plummets. Or would plummet, if not for the generous extras on offer. Of course, you'll find the obligatory Touch Generations "daily play" challenge, as well as a series of competitive play modes. Best of all is the ability to create and trade your own puzzle pictures; Picross' in-game editor is a breeze to use and even has a built-in checker to ensure it's actually possible to solve your artistic creations. It does not, however, have the ability to prevent people from drawing naughty pictures, so expect to be solving lots of user-made schlongs.
Inevitable immaturity aside, Picross is an exceptional puzzle game with a no-nonsense presentation. It's especially great to see it in America at long last, a decade's worth of entries having been Japanese exclusives. Picross is a creative exercise in math and logic, and even people whose left brains have atrophied over the years will love it.

text: Just curious, but is there any way to get this plugin to just send what it gets and not mess with the formatting? SMTP plugins seem to work fine with whatever is thrown at them, but this one messages with the formatting. Not easy to correct if you have pieces sending out plain text and others sending out HTML. The only way to correct this would be to modify all the plugins - or use a SMTP plugin. The easiest choice is to just use an SMTP plugin.

Heroes' Calling Revised Edition
by Edge Celize

- #4245 in Science Fiction & Fantasy, Fantasy, Epic Fantasy
- Free eBook
"I wish there was sumtin I can do… to free us from the fear of being discovered… who woulda thought that to save the world, I'd have to be the monster to destroy it first. I didn't know where my decisions would take me, I didn't know who I'd meet on the way, and least of all I didn't know what the outcome would be…
Religion, what a bunch of bullshit… the government… just another form of religion if you ask me… whatever I have to do, I'm gonna do it, I'm tired of living a life where I have to hide my powers… we're all tired of hiding… this is our chance to do sumtin, this is gonna be our time now, and I'll never back down.
A defiant story about a guy and his friends. Together they must over come the obstacle of government and religion in order to save themselves and the world... but in order to do so, they must become the monsters to destroy it first. Their destiny is more important then they could ever realize..." This story has comedy, friendship, drama, adventure, excitement, and everything else you might find in your everyday lives. Join Edge as learns to use his powers to fight those that try to oppress the weaker voices. Fight alongside his friends as they try to make the world a better place for them and their kind. A defiant and daring tale that will make you wonder who or what the real evil is in this world.
(Note - html preview does not include page breaks. Written in a Play/Script style format to help convey the highly conversational nature of the book.)
This ambitious novel, written mostly in the form of a play, combines action, mythology, religion and anime.
Edge is an Asian-American teen from Brooklyn who, as a child, discovers he can harness heat energy and shoot fireballs. He possesses this power as the result of a war waged between Jehovah and Lucifer, in which one of Lucifer's generals turned against his master and fought on the side of goodness. Details of this war were apparently suppressed by the Church, as was the fact that Adam was an angel and Eve a demon. These bold assertions are typical of the novel's incredibly complex, often difficult-to-follow plot. As Edge grows up, he finds that many of his close friends have extraordinary powers, too, including the ability to teleport. This connection to friends with superpowers proves to be fortuitous, since Lucifer's generals have returned to Earth to reclaim the scattered, mystical sources of their power. The underlying scenario has potential, but unfortunately, and for no clear reason, the novel is written like a play, with the action in brackets. With admirable consistency, this technique is sustained across hundreds of pages, although it doesn't quite benefit the telling of the tale. The dialogue is perfunctory and trite—"Raven: I got a plan, and it's an awesome plan!"—and the stage-direction rendering of the novel's action tends to dampen the wonder of what could be spectacular scenes, especially Edge becoming an angel in heaven, the fights between angels and demons, and even a nuclear blast. The sketches of action struggle to leave an impression: "[The War Commandant leaves the office and gets into a helicopter that takes him to an unnamed building in a field of grass. He exits, enters the facility, and gets on an elevator that takes him a few floors down. The elevator opens into a room with a person strapped to a table with his arms and legs spread apart.]" Also, in the repetitive fight scenes, main characters call out their signature moves before executing them, as in a video game or anime—parallels young readers may or may not enjoy... - Kirkus Review

My family spotted this MOC at Washington State University this past weekend -- it's an Airsoft pistol mounted on top of a Lego TECHNIC & MINDSTORMS elements. It can automatically follow the target using its sensors, and fire soft pellets with incredible range and accuracy! It was made by the "Technology Club" Electrical and Mechanical Engineering students at Washington State University (in Pullman, Washington, USA). They scavenged parts off of a 8272 Snowmobile set. (Too bad there wasn't a cool club like this where I went to college....)
Airsoft Tank Seeks Out Its Target Via "Mindstorms"

That sounds pretty awesome. No video though?
Posted 30 April 2010 - 12:58 AM
No, the Airsoft Tank was just sitting on a table in a crowded room, so there's no video of it in action. I made a slight mistake -- the tank is actually from nearby UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO (Moscow, Idaho, USA) and not from WSU (which we visited later).
Posted 30 April 2010 - 03:54 PM
Some people say if there are no pictures, it didn't happen, but with Mindstorms, if there is no video it doesn't work

Pop-up showers and storms will begin to develop over the next couple of hours, and coverage still looks to be better than yesterday as there is a bit more support from the jet stream and humidity is slightly higher than yesterday. These storms could be on the strong side with gusty winds and small hail, but no severe storms (winds in excess of 58mph, 1" diameter or larger hail) are expected.
The pop-up chance decreases as we work into the weekend but rain showers and some storms look to return Sunday with our next cold front. We could see a squall line organize along the front, however, no significant upper level support will accompany the front, so only a storm or two looks capable of becoming severe at this point.
Behind the front, much cooler air looks to arrive on Monday with highs dropping into the low to mid 80s with low humidity. Our reprieve though is short lived as we quickly look to climb to the lower 90s by Wednesday. As we enter June, it appears Mother Nature will be prepared to start providing 90 degree weather.

From the Author
As you probably know by now HTML5 isn't any one upgrade to HTML. Rather it's a collection of items that came together at roughly the same time and ended up being called HTML5 - and this course has been written in 20 self-contained lectures that should take you less than 20 hours to learn. In Robin Nixon's HTML5 Crash Course you'll learn about major new technologies such as the canvas, geolocation, audio and video, as well as the new extensions made to HTML forms, microdata and web workers. Collectively all these things have become known as HTML5, and as a web developer you need to know what they are and how to use them.

And here is the link to my Recipe:

I haven't tried that yet so I can't say exactly.
Making Custard Cream in Australia, I noticed today that it didn't turn out as yellow as when I made it in Japan. The colour depends on the colour of the egg-yolks. In Japan they're bright yellow but in Australia they're a slightly dull orange-colour, and the custard colour was a bit dull. I put in a few drops of yellow food colouring to get the custard cream colour you see here:

I created a db, named it and went in following the directions http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Step_2:_Create_the_Database_and_a_User. Still get the same message.
I tried manually configuring the config file to no avail.
What (simple) step am I missing?

We called Gary Harmon at Arcade Services and asked if he could repair our Pinball Machine. He said it was probably the boards. He told us it would be $80.00 to take a look. He showed up with a tool box, took all the boards and the $80.00 and that was the last we've seen of him or the boards.
We heard every excuse..put out of his house, hard times, moving. We even had the police chief call him...nothing has gotten our boards back. When we call...he promises to show up with the boards..but never does.
I was sharing the story with a repair man that was at my house and he said he'd heard the same story from a woman in Woodbury, NJ. So this is his how he operates. Beware! As of today it's been one year and we feel the boards are gone - which makes our Pin Ball machine useless.

Can someone PLEASE make a PodPress plugin alternative. That plugin is great, once you get it set up. Therein lies the problem. For those who use the plugin, you know what I mean. Every time you upgrade WordPress and/or the plugin, there are a bunch of tweaks you need to make in order to get it to work as it did before. The tweaks to get it to function are hit-and-miss and everyone does things differently to get to functionality. Then, recently, the help forums (which were providing a little help) went down, because of budget constraints. Frankly, most of the help there was just suggesting putting the same bandage over different types of wounds. It was more of a time-waster, really. Okay, now I'm complaining. The point is, I feel we need an alternative. (Competition is usually great, right?)
What we need is some way to easily (keyword, there) add MP3 files to our posts either from a local path or an external one (as is the case with my weblog) and have them appear in each post as a nice little player. PodPress goes one step further and assists in the auto podcasting of those MP3 files to popular engines. That really is a nicety, but isn't necessary. We can do that on our own. (It's sure easier than setting up PodPress everytime an upgrade comes out.)

Chavez-Martinez in Play For September 15 in Las Vegas?
By Salvador Rodriguez
According to Julio Cesar Chavez Sr., a potential fight between his son, WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (45-0-1, 31KOs), and mandatory challenger Sergio Martinez (48-2-2, 27KOs), is currently being explored and a fall date of September 15th has been placed on hold for the fight. The fight will take place in Las Vegas, says Chavez Sr.
Chavez Sr. told BoxingScene.com that his son's promoters, Zanfer Promotions and Top Rank, advised him of the ongoing discussions and reportedly a tentative agreement, in terms of staging the fight in September, was reached.
Additional sources confirmed to BoxingScene that Chavez-Martinez is certainly being discussed. Staging the match in September would allow Chavez to move forward with a planned fight against British boxer Martin Murray on June 16th in El Paso, Texas.
The WBC ordered Chavez-Martinez last December at their 49th annual convention in Las Vegas. Provided Martinez defeats Matthew Macklin later tonight in New York City, the WBC will expect the two sides to reach an agreement within 30 days before a purse bid is scheduled.
"Everything is ready. They told me there is already an agreement to fight in September. We hope that Martinez wins [tonight] and that Julio wins his fight against Martin Murray on June 16 in El Paso, Texas - [so Julio can] fulfil the wishes of so many people - and once and for all to shut a lot of mouths," said Chávez Sr.

How do people with epilepsy process and control emotions?
We are conducting a scientific study to characterize the neural changes that occur as a result of compassion meditation in patients with intractable epilepsy. Compassion meditation has been found to enhance positive affect, reduce psychological and physical distress, and enhance overall life-satisfaction, thus it may present a potentially beneficial complementary treatment for enhancing the psychological well-being of those suffering with epilepsy. Specifically, we are interested in exploring the changes in the amygdala network induced through this meditation. The aim of our research is to provide new insights into processing and control of emotions in this patient population. This research may also present an opportunity to discover new information about the mechanism of epileptogenic networks, for example, whether an epileptogenic network is affected by the affective-cognitive strategies involved in compassion meditation. Finally, this research will allow for a deeper understanding of the neural processes underlying compassion meditation, and of the extent to which these processes may share similarities and differences with the neural patterns underlying postictal religiosity.
Effects of epilepsy on consciousness are profound and multi-dimensional, affecting levels of arousal and contents of consciousness, as well as such core dimensions as selfidentity. Contemplative traditions point to capacity for love, compassion and empathy as one of the central factors determining the quality of human experience. Some see it as being, together with awareness and intuition-wisdom, one of the fundamental dimensions of consciousness. Chronic intractable epilepsy is a disabling disorder that carries significant public health burden. This research aims to further our understanding of epilepsy, and of the potentially new ways in which we can optimize the quality of life for those suffering with this disease.
What is it like to be a child?
How does the world look to them? In spite of much research on adult correlates of consciousness, we know very little about the conscious experience of young children. Typically, philosophers have assumed that children's consciousness must be more limited or impoverished than that of adults'. Indeed, many functional features that are correlated with adult consciousness, like executive control and focused attention, are much less apparent in children. In this project we explore an alternative hypothesis—that children's visual experience might be different than, but not inferior too adult visual experience. In particular, we explore whether children's consciousness might operate at a broad, more diffuse level, allowing them to appreciate the collective properties of their world (i.e. the "gist") despite limited access to the details. This may seem surprising, since some theories of consciousness suggest that our Gestalt sense of seeing a vast and complete world is merely an illusion, and that the content of awareness is limited to the small number of details and objects to which our working memory provides us access. Recent work with adults, however, challenges this assumption, and shows that gist phenomenology relies on the operation of a dedicated visual mechanism known as ensemble coding. Ensemble coding operates parallel to, and separately from, access to the details. Here, we determine, for the first time, whether children are able to engage this important gist perception mechanism. In doing so, our work will provide novel and long-overdue evidence that children's conscious experience is either richer or even more limited than previously thought. As such, our results should have far-reaching implications, not just for characterizing the development of ensemble coding for the first time, but also for providing new insights into the phenomenology of visual experience in childhood.
Is consciousness a binary (all-or-nothing) phenomenon or can it be present in degrees?
We can start with the assumption that awake, alert humans are conscious, but most of us assume that consciousness extends to other animals as well. What is it like to be a dog, or a bat, or a monkey, or a fly? Drs. Phillips and Sherwood suggest that we begin investigating this question by looking at some of our closest relatives, our primate cousins, chimpanzees and capuchin monkeys. These animals have brains that are remarkably similar to human brains, but may differ in some important ways. Phillips and Sherwood propose using resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to study networks of brain activity involving the precuneus, a part of the parietal cortex that may play a special role in some of the mental activities that seem most uniquely human, such as curiosity, self-awareness, and self-reflection. Phillips proposes that primate evolution may have involved changes in the network of brain activity in different regions of the precuneus, and that transitions in the organization of these networks, from monkey, to ape, to human, can tell us something about the gradual emergence, in the history of primates, of the mental attributes of self-reflective consciousness, that quality of our mental life that we often think of, perhaps not entirely accurately, as most uniquely human.
Does the brain produce molecules that regulate levels of consciousness?
We know that states of consciousness are regulated by distributed brain networks and a diverse set of signaling molecules. One of the most common of these molecules is gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). We know that drugs that bind to GABA-A receptors can inactivate brain regions and turn on sleep. While many scientists predict that there is a naturally occuring substance, what pharmacologists call an "endogenous ligand," that can turn on GABA-A receptors and turn down consciousness, the molecule has yet to be identified. Dr Rye and colleagues have reported evidence that they have found the molecule. If they are correct, this finding will constitute a major advance in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms controlling states of consciousness, and suggest new possible therapeutic targets for treatments of disorders of consciousness.
Where in the brain does consciousness occur?
Neuroscientists believe that we become conscious of what we see when signals from the retina are processed in the brain. But where in the brain does consciousness occur? Maier and Cox propose a novel experimental technique to block conscious awareness, combined with brain imaging techniques, to show how the brain translates visual input into conscious percepts. This investigation will help answer the question of how and where unconscious neural activity generates conscious awareness.
The intimate relationship between consciousness and social awareness.
Animals with complex social organizations usually demonstrate complex cognitive capacities. Did consciousness evolve as a way for animals to solve social problems, such as who is a potential friend, and who is a potential enemy? Taylor Rubin and Frans de Waal propose to study the social behavior of spider monkeys in the Ecuadorian rain forest to help answer this question. They will investigate how communication patterns in monkeys predict the formation and dissolution of social groups. This research will help shed light on important questions about how the evolution of complex brains in primates mirrors the development of complex societies, culture and consciousness.
Creating a practical tool to assess levels of consciousness.
To be conscious of our world, we must be capable of combining a diverse array of sensory inputs—this is integration, and distinguishing what one set of sensory inputs means in contrast to another set—this is differentiation. Tononi and colleagues have proposed a mathematical model, integrated information theory, to account for how the representations of our conscious minds match the complexity of the world we are embedded in. Tononi and Boly propose a computer simulation to show how consciousness evolves, as simulated organisms evolve in a complex simulated world. They then propose to test this model of how conscious brains "match" input from a complex world, by predicting differences in brain activity when people look at meaningful visual scenes, in contrast to brain activity while viewing random visual "noise."
An investigation of the hypothesis that consciousness is an emergent property produced when neurons collectively interact in special ways.
We understand many biological details of the brain, but relatively little about its most intriguing feature: it produces a conscious, self-aware mind. How does consciousness arise? A reasonable hypothesis shared by many is that consciousness is an emergent property produced when neurons collectively interact in special ways. This project will investigate emergent properties linked to consciousness in local cortical networks, and expect that such investigations will, for the first time, begin to reveal important aspects of the microstructure of consciousness.
How can we communicate with severely brain-injured patients?Continued funding on a project using EEG techniques to assess the presence of minimally conscious states in severely brain injured patients. The work was reported in the journal Lancet, and cited in a popular press account in the New York Times on November 10, 2011.

Personally I use Dreamweaver MX 2004. I like its syntax highlighting, quick help (you enter a function and it gives you the arguments), abilty to search and replace across many files, and SFTP integration. I also like that it generates pretty clean HTML code. In the past I used Topstyle Pro to edit HTML and PHP, and I still do sometimes. It's very fast and its HTML tidy integration is killer.
I have a local apache/php/mysql installation on my laptop, but for most of my debugging I just have it upload via FTP when I save, and then test everything on this server, which is LAMP. To interact with the WordPress repository I use TortoiseCVS.

The Tap Pre-Show: See the Last Bison perform 'Switzerland' in our studio
The Last Bison is a family affair. Actually two families. Frontman Ben Hardesty's father Dan does the banjo and mandolin, with Ben's sis Annah on bells and percussion. Andrew Benfante handles reed organ and the melodica, and brother Jay is on drums and percussion. Then "honorary relatives" Teresa Totheroh (Annah's best friend) plays violin, with Annah's boyfriend Amos Housworth on cello.
With their talents combined the Virginia folk revival act has made one of my favorite songs so far this year "Switzerland," appearing on its debut album "Inheritance" for Republic Records (home of the Avett Brothers and Of Monsters and Men). The combination of whimsical xylophone and banjo, the beauty of violin and cello, and the gruff passion of Ben Hardesty's voice really gets under my skin. »Read Full Blog Post

Vt. town removing asbestos from old schoolThe Associated Press | September 06,2013WEATHERSFIELD - Officials say about two-thirds of asbestos and other hazardous materials have been removed from an old school complex in Vermont.
Multiple wings in the old Weathersfield Elementary School in Perkinsville on Route 106 have been cleared of asbestos.
The original school was constructed in 1879. Additions from the 1950s and 1960s will eventually be torn down.
The Eagle Times reported that on Town Meeting Day in March, Weathersfield voters approved an article to borrow up to $225,000 to remove any hazardous materials in the building and demolish the undesired additions while saving the 1879-built schoolhouse.
Voters rejected a similar proposal in November 2012.MORE IN This Just InColleges merger
