But wait, there's more
Whenever I start a blog item, I'm always faced with the words "enter title here." It's hard to determine whether I'm supposed to enter my title — which I have settled on "Big Kahuna, God of All He Surveys" — or whether it's the title of the blog item. Yeah, I know it's the latter, but in most cases, I don't know what the title is until I'm done . . . sometimes.
Regardless, below are some observations of recent developments, like
Blame the Blocker Bugs: Fedora 13, code named Goddard, sits on the launch pad for another week as the release date is pushed back in order for the distro to fix a few more bugs. That puts the countdown back to a May 25th liftoff, according to internet.com's Sean Michael Kerner's article here.
That was fast: Yesterday — I think it was yesterday, although it could have just seemed like yesterday — I mournfully blogged that Mandriva was being put up for sale. Seems like a suitor has already stepped up: A report from techie-buzz.com (yeah, that got a "huh?" from me, too) here says that Lingaroa has opened its checkbook and that they have already started moving Mandriva assets.
Update: Actually, that news from techie-buzz.com got a huge "non" from Paris, as the official Mandriva blog says that Mandriva "has not been bought by anybody."
Shooting down the Air Force: When the PlayStation 3 was released, it was able to run Linux, which made creating powerful computing clusters that utilized the console's advanced Cell processor to benefit scientific researchers. Oh, and also benefitted the Air Force, which purchased over 2,000 PS3 for that very purpose. Now that the firmware update no longer allows OtherOS (read: Linux) support, does that mean the Air Force is grounded? Not necessarily, at least as long as the 2,000 PS3s are working — and I guess the USAF is going to have to hit Craigslist.org to get replacements. Brian Leahy of shacknews.com outlines the story here.
But wait, there's more . . . but not immediately. More to follow soon.

Today Is Not a Day of Celebration for Me
by Kristen Breitweiser, 9/11 widow and activist
When my husband was killed on the morning of 9/11, television stations around the world ran split-screen video. They showed the buildings still burning juxtaposed against young Arabs celebrating in the streets. That disturbing vision left me incredulous; it was forever emblazoned on my psyche.
Ten years later, now fully awake in the bright sunlight of the day, when I contemplate the definition of victory for our country when it comes to the death of Osama bin Laden, I can only think about the damage that has been done.
I think about the thousands of lives lost -- American, Afghani, Iraqi. I know firsthand the sorrow those families have felt. I ponder how the billions -- maybe trillions -- of dollars could have been better spent. I remain alarmed about the continued expansion of absolute Executive power in the name of fighting this seemingly ongoing and never-ending "war on terror." I worry about the further erosion of our constitutional rights. I wonder when our troops will ever be called home. I know all too well, that thousands of young American men and women soldiers will never have the opportunity to return home. And of course, I fear reprisal.
But more than anything, I cannot seem to remove the optics of the giddy, gleeful throngs of Americans who took to the streets celebrating in the early morning hours.
Forgive me, but I don't want to watch uncorked champagne spill onto hallowed ground where thousands were murdered in cold blood.
And I don't want to see any ugly blood stained sheets as proof of death or justice.
Nor do I want to think about bullet-ridden corpses being dumped into the sea.
And it breaks my heart to witness young Americans cheer any death -- even the death of a horrible, evil, murderous person -- like it is some raucous tailgate party on a college campus.
Why are we not somber?
Where is the deeper, more meaningful reflection?
Haven't we learned any lessons in ten years? Paid any attention along the way? Gained any valuable wisdom? Are we really better off?
Can it ever be a true victory when so many don't even seem to comprehend the magnitude of what has been lost along the way? Or even what the future might hold?
Was it all worth it?
As my phone rings and the media looks toward me to give them their trite, warm
soundbite of closure and elation, I have to be honest, today is not a day of
celebration for me.

Are Rihanna and Lady Gaga collaborating on a song together?
Listen to Rihanna on iHeartRadio | Listen to Lady Gaga on iHeartRadio
A tweet from Rihanna has led to some speculation about a possible collaboration with Lady Gaga.
On Wednesday, the "Diamonds" singer wrote that she just "recorded a #monster hook for one of [her] favorite artists." She added, "That's all I can give you..."
Just left the studio... Recorded a #monster hook for one of my favorite artists! And that's all I can give you... #NavyShit— Rihanna (@rihanna) September 11, 2013
Many are taking her use of the word "monster" as a hint that Gaga could be her secret duet partner, as the star is also known by her nickname the "Mother Monster." Gaga's new album ARTPOP is set to drop in November.
After a quiet summer wrapping up her "Diamonds" tour, it looks like Ri-Ri could be gearing up to release a new single.
She also tweeted that she's preparing to shoot a video for the song "What Now," off her most recent album Unapologetic.
Also wrote a treatment for #WhatNow video, so yea we gonna be shooting dat supa dupa soon!! #NavyShit— Rihanna (@rihanna) September 11, 2013

In one of them, coming towards the club-house, Bryce recognized Sackville Bonham.
With these fine principles I found Sackville Maine impressed.
Sackville only replied that he did not see his way to doing so.
The rain was drizzling as we made our way into Sackville Street.
The name was originally given to the part extending from the Haymarket to Sackville Street.
He said the scene of excitement in Sackville Street was indescribable.
English poetry was not speedily animated by the example of Sackville.
Sackville Street, in Dublin, is said to be one of the finest streets in Europe.
Does the poor woman," asked Mrs. Sackville, "still think of returning to Quebec?
The breadth of this long Boulevard may be about that of Sackville Street.

Invasion of europe
From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
"Europe... Is that a country?"
"Actually, it is now. Thanks for asking."
In 2008, Europe was conquered and amalgamated into one huge nation, which is now home to over 5 jews and nearly 10 muslims.
So an American, a Canadian and two Europeans are in a bar- this is not a joke! Why is it that every time someone mentions a few ethnic people and bar they automatically assume it's a joke? But then… they were frequently made the butt of a joke…
edit The American, Canadian and Europeans
Europe was invaded by only 4 brave men and a woman.
Miss Turncloak, Canada- she was the mastermind behind the whole operation. She, being a woman, could single-handedly fight off 3 armies at once. She is now the Princess of France
Gandhi The Doc, USA- his wisdom and knowledge helped the group through many difficulties, including defeating Adolf Hitler II. He is now the Duke of Greece and chief diplomat for Europe.
Malty Murry- an Englishman who has pointed out to Americans his whole life that Europe is not a country. He helped during the uniting of Europe with his superior knowledge in the fine arts of blowing shit up.
Dom the Good- possibly the most important member of the team. Another Brit, he was a humble man who became a hero. After liberating the lands of Europe, he was appointed King Dom I of Europe
edit How It Was Done
Well, before we talk about the chronology of the conquest, I think it would be best to learn how this all came to be. Basically, the four friends were sitting around in their hotel suite drinking some beer, when they realized that no European country had a decent army. At which point they spent several minutes joking about how they would do it.
But little did the three of them know that the fourth was starting to get pretty serious amidst the discussion. The next day when Dom approached them, they were quite convinced.
edit Dom Goes to Russia
Several maps and days of research later, the four decided that they would pay a visit to the most powerful neighbor near by…Chuck Norris. But of course Chuck Norris was in Iraq beating the crap out of Saddam Hussein, so Russia would have to suffice
But unfortunately, Vladimir Putin would not comply, which meant Gandhi's powers would be put to the test as he would try to persuade the prime minister of Russia.
Did he? No, he didn't.
Actually, we do not know. Nobody knows what happened in that room when the two were alone. Did the Doc seduce him? All we know is that when Vladimir came out of that room he was grinning, his shirt was loose and that he had a bruise on that thick, bald head of his. A tree was planted in St. Petersburg in honor of Gandhi.
edit Assault on Finland
After loads of research and stuff you probably don't care about, Gandhi, Murry, Dom, Turn and a obeying Vladimir Putin decided that their first move should be to attack Finland. This was an excruciating procedure that involved years of thinking and planning… which only took six months.
After five months of fighting, Gandhi had zombified Putin, reminded them that Finland once belonged to Russia, after which Finland was handed over to Putin, by which of course I mean Gandhi.
edit Turncloak Proves That She is a Better Tactician Than Gandhi and Murry Put Together
Turncloak proves that she is a better tactician than Gandhi and Murry put together. Dom is naturally the best.
After Finland was theirs, Dom got drunk and said that they should go after bigger prizes like Germany, France and all those other big ass countries because it would give them the advantage over size. But then Turn said that he didn't seem to have the advantage over size either, which made Dom shut his mouth. Dom was notoriously short.
So, with Murry's weapon knowledge and Turncloak's tactical prowess, they were able to devise a plan to capture all the smaller countries of Europe that border Russia, at which point Dom drunkenly proclaimed, "All your base are belong to us."
So, while all those countries were sleeping, the Russian border patrol let millions of Russians and Finlanders across, killing any awaking enemies, and by the time Dom, Gandhi and all those other countries woke up, there was a either a flag of Russia or Finland in every city capital that bordered Russia. And yes, that means you too, Sweden.
edit Germany Doesn't Get a Clue
One day, Putin, by which of course I mean Gandhi, got a letter from Germany informing them that they were going to attack Poland. Dom saw this as a threat, but the other three convinced them that as long as Germany didn't know of their initial goal, that they were safe.
After this decision, they got another letter from Germany informing them that France had surrendered after 36.4 minutes of battle.
So, all the united countries were easily able to plant their flags in Poland in the matter of months.
edit Hey Wait, What About Norway?
Sweden attacked them after they submitted to Russia. The end.
edit Germany Still Doesn't Get a Clue
Three years later, as things were starting to quiet down, the four were informed that Germany had successfully invaded and conquered all those tiny countries between France and Germany that nobody really cares about.
edit Britain Craps Their Pants
By now the British are blowing their brains out because now they know what's happening. So they decide to call up Canada and the States.
But the Americans have better things to do and so do the Canadians; who remind them that all the Brits left them with were drunks and old people when the Americans chased them up to the north.
edit Turncloak Once Again Proves She's a Tactical Genius
With her knowledge of the Brits asking for help, Turncloak plotted with the other three and numerous other generals to devise a plan to capture the United Kingdom.
So, Turncloak, being a tactical genius, made her troops don the military attire of Canadians and Americans. To those that opposed at first, she reminded them that the Germans had done something similar.
So instead of seeing tons of Russians, French, Germans and Finlanders coming their way, they instead saw what they believed to be Canadian and American air force and navy.
Mean while, three days later, there was a mock battle on the islands where the pretenders pretended to fight the so-called opposition with fake blood, fake bullets and fake explosions with fake ships and fake props.
But by the time the British found out the truth it was too late and the enemy had already surrounded them. However, they kept their dignity and fought for one more day, one more hour, 36 minutes and 27.25 seconds before they surrendered to the Russian might.
edit Italy and Greece Surrender
So the majority of Europe is now under Dom's control, with the smaller countries crumbling under Russia's might, there seems to be no hope for those who oppose, unless, of course, the Americans and Canadians were to be involved. But that won't ever happen, will it? Yeah. Never.
By now, Dom has established himself in the former United Kingdom, treating himself with the royals of Europe in his newly acquired palace with his three companions, but we'll get to that later.
Anyways, as I was saying, the majority of Europe had fallen to the might of the Russians, who were really controlled by Gandhi, Finland, France and all those other nations that complied or eventually did, including the clueless Germans. Who still thought they'd be getting a piece of the prize when really he was just their pawn.
And so, Italy and Greece, knowing their dilemma, took the less dignified road and surrendered in person to Dom himself in his royal palace, but then they realized that he was really some fat guy with a fake crown on his head, whose name happened to be Dom as well.
So when they got there, Dom announced that he'd be holding a conference for all the leaders of Europe, friends and enemies both, to discuss the economy, which really meant it was a conference to make them his wards and to give himself the rest of Europe.
edit King Dom the Good
His Royal Highness has only been King for a short while, but that time has been one of extreme wealth and prosperity for the United Europe, in fact, things are much better now than they were before he took his seat.
Also, it should be noted that His Grace was loving and generous enough to legitimize his base-born triplet sons, Ted, Ked and Ned. Although, some question whether or not they should ascend the throne before Dom's first born son.
Furthermore. he has defended his nation against all types of Evil. His palace is located inside Old Trafford, Manchester UK. He is married to Carol Vordeman He has a celebrity entourage, including:
Prince Philip-Butler
Frank Lampard-Ass-Whipper
Your Mum-Sex Slave
Robert Mugabe-Political Adviser
Smo - Sexier Sex Slave
Coach Z - Ass-Kicker/Physical Work-out Adviser
and many many more.
He was appointed the first Jewish pope. He was not born Jewish, is not Jewish, and does not want to be Jewish. However, the Jewry voted unanimously for him, giving him a total of 20 votes.
He has been experimenting with titles, such as: "PopeKing", "KingPope", "Holy Highness", and "Highpopeness". He is hoping the all knowing Gandhi will help him.
edit Countess Turncloak
Following the conquest of Europe and Asia, the lady Turncloak decided to make her home in what used to be [France]. Lounging in the lovely halls of her palace, Countess Turncloak has a number of suitors, butlers, and others to tend to her every need. She is however, riddled with STDs and as such is doomed to fail.

On the same day that Michael McEwen walked unsteadily from St Vincent's Hospital, his alleged attacker walked from Silverwater remand centre on bail.
Despite a magistrate ruling last month that Jamie Ennis, 24, should remain in custody to ''send a strong message to the community'' about alcohol-fuelled violence, the Bondi removalist was released on Monday afternoon because he didn't swing the punch that landed McEwen in a coma for a week.
Police allege Mr Ennis grabbed Mr McEwen's T-shirt before an unidentified man came around the back of a Bondi bus stop and threw an unprovoked punch that knocked the IT consultant out.
Mr Ennis was thrown out of the Beach Road Hotel in Bondi in the early hours of December 14 and was seen on CCTV stumbling from the area before starting a verbal altercation with Mr McEwen outside a beachside kebab store.
Mr McEwen, 23, crossed the road to walk away but Mr Ennis and others followed him to a bus stop, continuing to bait him.
A court heard Mr Ennis was already on bail at the time for a near-identical assault in Bondi in September, in which he produced a machete and punched a man outside his house.
Both times, he was the aggressor and had to be restrained by others to stop him from assaulting his victims more seriously, police prosecutor David Anderson said.
''It was the accused who initiated the conflict in the first place,'' Sergeant Anderson said.
He implored the court to deny bail because ''the community is rightly sick and tired of alcohol-fuelled violence'' but magistrate Michael Barko gave Mr Ennis yet another chance.
Mr Barko said that, at face value, there was no evidence to suggest Mr Ennis did anything other than rip a man's shirt.
''There is no evidence that this defendant even knew that the unknown male would attack the victim,'' he said.
He said Mr Ennis clearly had problems with drinking and violence and he banned him from drinking anywhere other than his home while on bail.
Real men walk away from a fight. They stop fights.
Just minutes later, Michael McEwen took his first steps out of St Vincent's Hospital in a development his family said was nothing short of ''miraculous''.
Less than a month after entering a coma, he has been transferred to Ryde Rehabilitation Centre where he will learn how to walk, talk and function properly again.
''It's an incredible day because we didn't expect him to be here so soon,'' said his father, Rob.
''The first week was tough, that was a rollercoaster because we didn't know if he would survive''.
He said governments had to put more resources into campaigns targeting potential offenders.
''Real men walk away from a fight,'' he said. ''They stop fights.''

Vermont has hired a policy architect of the Affordable Care Act as an economic consultant to help the Shumlin administration vet different single-payer financing scenarios.
Jonathan Gruber, a professor of economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, will help Shumlin's health care reform team understand how different tax structures will impact subsets of the population as they design a proposal to pay for a planned universal health care program.
Gruber is a veteran of health care economics and national health policy having served as technical adviser to the Obama administration and Congress as they designed the Affordable Care Act.
The contract is worth $400,000 and is expected to solidify the administration's pitch to lawmakers when it presents its proposal to lawmakers in January.
The Legislature's Joint Fiscal Office recently signed its own more limited contract for economic simulations with Rand Corp.
The upcoming legislative session is expected show whether Gov. Peter Shumlin's signature policy priority will come to fruition.

When I use the "Manage Attachments" option, a pop-up window appears, but all of the buttons images on the right side are chopped off so it is almost unusable?!
Yes, I ran into the same problem yesterday when I was trying to delete two attachments I uploaded by mistake. Enlarging the window doesn't solve the problem.
Thanks for this. I see that it's unusable.
I'll pass the info onto the guys in the back.
There are a lot of amendments taking place at the moment, as one might expect after launching such a big redesign, but I'll make sure it's given as much priority as possible.
For now, a work-around for uploading images to your posts could be to use the "Image" button in your toolbar. Please see my screenshot.
Let me know if that helps.
Your attachments come up as "Invalid"...
That's because they are waiting for approval.
I ran into the same upload problem a few days ago. The workaround I'm using is to click the partially exposed "Basic upload" button first and then uploading an image is pretty straight forward.
I can say, the problem will get fixed shortly the patch has been submitted
The fix has been uploaded, the manage attachment screen should be usable again.
Thank you.

News, blues and reviews
For some reason, I can't recall whether being a student was an incredible chore while I was doing it back in the disco era, or whether things have changed — or I have changed — to make modern-day matriculation a hell of a lot of work.
I would put my money on the fact that I may have lost an intellectual step or two over time.
But studies in general — and a shell script project that is both intriguing and harrowing — have kept me from the hallowed halls of this blog until now; not to mention life in general as well.
But there have been some developments of note over the past several weeks that deserve mention, like
Two Koreas, One Distro: According to this Information Week article, folks in South Korea speak of folks in North Korea more as lost brothers than bitter enemies. Over the years the two have made various rapprochements, but now it looks like North and South are teaming up on a whole new kind of joint project: a Korean-language GNU/Linux distribution called Hana Linux. And the GNU shall lie down with the penguin . . .
Pirates have standards, too: So maybe it's not just paying customers who aren't happy with Vista — even pirates are shunning it, according to this blog item. Microsoft gleefully reported Tuesday that the rate of piracy of Vista compared to XP is about half — the mandarins in Redmond claim this is because of their anti-piracy features in Vista — the one that accusses paying customers of being thieves when it doesn't work quite right — but some of us know better. Pirates have standards, too, and Vis-duh just plain blows on a variety of levels.
[In a related item, 90 percent — that's 9 out of 10, for those of you keeping score at home — of IT professionals would rather eat plutonium than foist Vista on their companies. Okay, so I overstate it, but 90 percent of IT professionals have concerns about Vista that are strong enough to shun it, and more are migrating away from Winblows. Don't believe me? Here's the Slashdot article].
Distros I like: The more I use the Fluxbox desktop environment, the more I like it on whatever distro I'm using (oh, and my distro polygamous ways have been documented here and elsewhere — there's a 12-step program for it somewhere, no doubt) . I have been using Fluxbuntu on a Pentium II and it works pretty well. But more recently, I salvaged a Dell Inspiron 5000e laptop from certain doom at the hands of my employers and have given it a new home and a new distro that I particularly like: Mepis AntiX 7.0, code named Lysistrata (the name enough — from the play of the same name by Aristophanes — is reason to give the distro some attention), which absolutely flies on this machine.
Example: 48 seconds to boot. That's not a typo — 48 seconds. I've never had a computer boot that fast.
More to follow. In the words of the renowned Helios, "All righty then."

Ariana Grande's 'Yours Truly' tops Billboard 200
Listen to Ariana Grande on iHeartRadio
The debut album from Ariana Grande has topped the album charts this week.
The Nickelodeon actress-turned-singer clinched the number one spot on the Billboard after selling 138,000 copies of Yours Truly in the album's first week out.
Ariana's strong start makes her the first female artist since 2010 to see her first album debut at number one. The last woman to do so was Ke$ha with Animal. "Billboard" notes that 78% of Ariana's album sales this week were digital.
Yours Truly includes the singer's hit single "The Way," featuring Mac Miller. The track peaked at number ten on the Hot 100.
Ariana is managed by Scooter Braun, the man behind Justin Bieber's success. She was also an opening act on the pop star's "Believe" tour this year.
The 20-year-old thanked fans for helping her get to number one on Twitter, saying she "can't even begin to express [her] gratitude" and that it "really means the world."
My 1st album has debuted at #1 & I can't even begin to express my gratitude. Thank you for supporting my music, this really means the world.— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) September 10, 2013
Dream come true... Thank you guys so much for making it possible http://t.co/F3Rdbb6BGz— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) September 12, 2013
omg so apparently I'm the 15th solo female artist ever to have their 1st album go # 1 @billboard ♡ thank u guys so much for making it happen— Ariana Grande (@ArianaGrande) September 12, 2013


description: It's one of nature's weirdest journeys. A newborn kangaroo—barely bigger than a jelly bean—must crawl from one of its mother's two uteri and climb up her body to reach the safety of her pouch!

title: World's Weirdest: Kangaroo Birth

transcript:
Gray kangaroos like to keep their young close by.  Very close.
A baby roo will call its mother's pouch home for almost a year.
But how it gets there in the first place, is a strange and harrowing journey.
At one month old, the baby roo, barely more than the size of a jellybean, emerges from one of its mother's two uteri.
Once it's outside her body, it grips her fur, and though it still hasn't developed eyes, it instinctively relies on its forelegs to crawl up towards her pouch.
It takes a few minutes for the tiny roo to reach the pouch.
That's it, there.
Within minutes, it reaches her pouch and latches on to its mother's teat.
That's enough travel to suit the young roo for a long while.
Over the next few months it grows inside the pouch.
Even once it ventures outside, it's still not ready for cross-country trekking.
For nine more months, this joey will rely on its mother's pouch for shelter, transportation and protection...if it senses danger.
Even after it leaves the pouch, it stays by its mother's side, nursing for an additional one to six months.
The pouch, though, is now off limits-its mother will already be carrying her next baby.
From now on, the joey will have to travel on its own two feet.
But kangaroos aren't the weirdest mothers in Australia.

Trans fatty acids
Trans-fatty acids are manufactured fats created during a process called hydrogenation. Hydrogenation aims to stabilize polyunsaturated oils to prevent them from becoming rancid and to keep them solid at room temperature. Trans-fatty acids may be particularly dangerous for the heart and may pose a risk for certain cancers. Hydrogenated fats are used in stick margarine, fast foods, commercial baked goods (donuts, cookies, crackers), processed foods, and fried foods.

Creating an external CS project using Code::Blocks Studio
This tutorial shows you step by step, how you can use Code::Blocks Studio IDE to compile your own CS and CEL applications.
First, you have to configure, build and install (and optionally CEL) using MinGW and MSYS . You have to set the CRYSTAL
enviroment correctly (and CEL, when you use it). Next step is installing Code:.Blocks IDE. When you use Windows, you have to
download the pure IDE without compiler, to avoid problems. So install and run the IDE.
Step1: Setting the correct compiler
Run Code::Blocks. Go to the Build->Compiler settings:
The following window awaits you:
When your default compiler is not GCC, then select form the Selected compiler' list the GNU GCC complier, then click to the Set as default button. Now click to the Programs tab. You can see something, like this:
Now we set up the path of the mingw compiler. To do this, add our installed MinGW/bin path to the Additinal path: So click to this tab:
Now click to the Add button, and select your MinGW/bin directory. on my system, it is the E:/MinGw/bin:
Almost done. Now copy up this path into the Compiler's installation directory edit box:
Step2: Creating the project
Ok, now create a new console project. Click on the New->New project nad select New console project wizard. Check on the do not create any file option. We use the simple1 source to test our work. When done, add to the sources the following files:
CS/apps/tutorial/sipmle1/simple.1.h CS/apps/tutorial/sipmle1/simple.1.cpp
You can do it easily by right click on the Console application, and select Add Files.. :
Navigate to your CS/apps/tutorial/simple1/ directory, and add to thep project the files:
Step3: Adding include files
Now we set up the CS include files. Go to the Build->Complier options and click to the include tab. Click to the
Add.. button, and add your CS/include directory.
Step4: Adding libraries
No we add to our project the neccessary library files. We need two at least, libcrystalspace.a for the Crystal Space classes,
the neccessary windows libraries. Go to Build->Compiler options, and click to the Linker tab:
Now click to the Add... button, and add libcrystalspace.lib from your CS\out\msysx86\optimize\libs directory, and libopengl32.a, libgdi32.a, libuser32.a and libkernel32.a from you MinGW/lib directroy. The order does matter so make sure that libcrystalspace.lib is first on the list.
Now press Ctrl+F9, to compile the code. Wait. When you see this message, everything is fine:

Stream Fields
An offshoot of experiments in rendering electric field lines, this program draws a picture then saves it to a file when the user quits. By holding down the mouse, the image will be rendered differently.
This program is interesting but not interactive. The spirals are generated by an L-system. The smoke effect is achieved through certain cellular automata rules.
Evolutionary Things
One of the more involved things I've made, this application models asexual evolution of two dimensional, physically simulated creatures. The package also contains an evolutionary tree viewer.
This program was my senior year physics final project and also the first physics model I made using Verlet integration rather than the Euler method.
An animation and a screensaver at one point. If you hold the mouse down, the jellyfish will sort of float in that direction. This is the extent of the interactivity.
My first and only real game. Phyta was born out of long high school bus rides and my desire to be like those cool kids over at thatgamecompany. Level 5 is the last level, by the way.

Each year, hundreds of West Virginians come together at the State Fair in Greenbrier County to celebrate everything that makes our state great. From livestock shows and concerts, to unique hand-crafted goods and delicious treats, the fair showcases state pride like no other. This year during Governor's Day, we added a new aspect to the celebration--our strong tradition of neighbor helping neighbor.
Across the state, we are lucky to have motivated, kind-hearted people working to provide life-changing support to many. At the fair this year, I asked our volunteer leaders to encourage their friends and neighbors to join them and participate in the Governor's Day to Serve which will run September 15th through the 29th.
Last year, volunteers planned and participated in over 400 service projects throughout West Virginia's 55 counties--including highway clean-ups, food drives, and care packages for our troops. This year, our goal is to build upon 2012's success.
If we each dedicate ourselves for at least one day of giving during the Day to Serve effort, we can reinvigorate our communities, provide our families and friends with confidence. Our goal is simply to improve upon our Almost Heaven places in which we live, work and raise our families.
Please visit my website, www.governor.wv.gov, to learn more about how you can develop a grass-roots service project in your community. Your project may qualify for a Volunteer West Virginia mini-grant of up to $500.
By matching our state pride with our unrivaled community spirit and compassion, I hope many State fairgoers return home energized to make a difference in their hometowns. I believe, by sharing our time and talents with others, we can continue to strengthen our hometowns.

Murder gets creationist study published as a paper presented at the recent prestigious American Physical Society (APS) meeting in Dallas, Texas by Dr Robert Gentry concludes the big bang never happened. Gentry presented his "new cosmic model" that the world was created in six days thus affirming the Genesis account of creation, at an APS poster session. Gentry is a geophysicist with the Orion Foundation in Knoxville, Tennessee, and once worked for Oak Ridge National Laboratory. APS spokesman James Riordan, says "No-one with the APS thinks of this as serious research."
Why, then, has the APS agreed to display the poster? According to Michael Lubell, APS director of public affairs, "The APS policy is to accept any abstracts from members that reference physics, even if they are 'crackpot'". This open policy stems from an incident in 1952, when rejected scientist Bayard Peakes shot and killed a secretary in the APS offices. "Since then, the APS has accepted just about any abstract that comes over the transom," says Lubell. (From New Scientist, 27 April 2006, p6)

Could ovarian cyst history on my mum's side be the culprit in not getting pregnant?
Hello once again!
I would like to know the reason why I haven't been able to get pregnant for three years now since I have been married for three years already.
What is most likely be the cause?
I am 24 years old and I haven't tried to use OTC pills before.
However, my mother has a history of Ovarian cysts both in her right and left ovaries.
Will these have an effect with the problem I am having now?
Is ovarian cyst hereditary?
Thank you.

Hello Brenda,
There can literally be hundreds of reasons why a woman can't conceive, so the first thing I'd like to do is try to narrow down the cause and once we know the cause, then we can address that specifically. It's actually not as hard as it may sound, so let's get started.
You mentioned that your mum has a history of Ovarian Cysts. Ovarian cysts can actually make it much harder or impossible for a follicle to to rupture through the ovary, releasing an egg. One of the biggest causes of ovarian cysts is something called PCOS or Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. I'm going to ask you a few questions to see if we can rule that out altogether or if it's something that you should look into further.
You mentioned that your cycles are regular. Please post the dates of your last 4 cycles.
Are you overweight, and if so, do you primarily carry that weight in your tummy area?
Do you have any acne on your face or back?
Do you have any hair growth on your face, like your upper lip or chin?
You mentioned that you've never used hormonal birth control, like the Pill, and I just want to confirm this.
Please post back with answers to my questions. I will move on to your other questions now.
Warm Regards,

Hello Miss Kate!
Thank you very much with the prompt response.
These were the dates of my last 4 cycles:
- July 18, 2012
- August 17, 2012
- September 19, 2012
- October 17, 2012
With regards to my weight, I have normal BMI. I am 5'2'' in height and 53 kilograms in weight. But yes, I do have a certain amount of fats built up on my tummy area, so my waist circumference is 31 inches.
I have pimples or break-outs in my face area when I have my cycles, and when I stay up all night for some work.
I don't have hair growth on my upper lip or chin area.
I have never used hormonal birth control pill.
Once again, thank you Miss Kate for your time.

Hi Brenda,
It looks like your cycle lengths are good. Do you know when you ovulated during each of the past 3 or 4 months? If you can tell me this date, then I can ask more questions and try to narrow this down a little more for you.
Do you know how to watch your personal signs of fertility? If so, can you tell me what your cervical mucus pattern is like during the 5 days leading up to ovulation?
Warm Regards,

CORONA, CA -- AVT Inc. said it has developed an automated self-serve store that delivers brands and retailers a custom-designed solution to sell their products in nontraditional locations.
Called VendStore24, the systems are designed to promote instant sales, help companies expand distribution, enhance brand awareness, grow revenues and control inventory -- all with a small footprint that fits in almost any location. AVT said the machines can sell products diverse as swimsuits, perfume, electronics, cosmetics and more, and can be placed in locations ranging from cruise ships, hotels, and airports to hospitals, colleges and malls.
The compact stores can cross-sell and upsell products using AVT's management program, print receipts, coupons and promotional material, and provide real-time sales reports. Operators and other retailers can also remotely change prices, offer special promotions via built-in LED screens, and customize specials to each VendStore24.
AVT founder and chairman Shannon Illingworth noted that the system costs less than comparable equipment on the market, but did not disclose the suggested price to operators. The machine was recently added to Sam's Club vending and concession's online marketplace.

Los Angeles has always been a magnet for dreamers.
And doers.
Without action a dream is just a dream.
So its natural Ryan Chalmers and Roger Muller would choose Los Angeles as the launching pad for their dream in action, Ryan's epic 3,000-mile "Push Across America," Chalmer's quest to roll his wheelchair from L.A. to New York, crossing 14 states in 71 days. | Vincent Bonsignore: Ryan Chalmers begins 3,000-mile wheelchair journey in L.A
The 24-year-old Chalmers was born with spina bifida, a congenital spine disorder that left him wheelchair bound since birth. That is, until he turned 15 and met Roger Muller.
"Roger changed my life ", says Ryan. And if there was any doubt, he's in the process of removing it.
On Saturday at L.A. Live, Ryan Chalmers shoved off on the first leg of his coast-to-coast consciousness and fundraising challenge in support of Muller's Stay-Focused.org foundation, a remarkable group that enables people in wheelchairs to transcend their disabilities in the crystal waters of Grand Cayman Island.
"My brother Bobby got shot up in Vietnam," recalls Muller. "On a scuba trip to the Caymans, I saw how free Bobby felt."
And a dream was born.
Stay-Focused.org trains and certifies disabled kids as divers, allowing them to experience physical mobility underwater denied to them on land by illness or injury.
"Diving is otherworldly under normal circumstances," says Ryan. "But for a kid who's spent his entire life in a wheelchair, the experience is spiritual."
Roger Muller spent his professional life in academia working with and mentoring young people. But it wasn't until that diving trip with his brother that he found his true calling.
"This is what I was meant to do." says Muller. It was time to act.
He discovered Ryan Chalmers at the Junior National Para-Olympics where Chalmers was competing as a wheelchair racer. Offered the opportunity to travel to the Cayman Islands for scuba training, Ryan jumped.
But in the water, Ryan Chalmers can actually jump, and circle, and rise and dive and float and flap and paddle just like any other diver. Water is the great equalizer.
"Para-athletes put our hearts and souls into our sports every bit as much as able bodied athletes," says Ryan.
While raising money for the next class of Stay-Focused.org divers is a big part of Ryan's "Push Across America," so is shattering stereotypes.
"A lot of people just see the wheelchair and not the person in the wheelchair."
Of course under water there is no wheelchair. That's the genius of Roger Muller's dream.
Each class of kids enrolled in the Stay-Focused.org diving program is unbound from their terrestrial limitations. "The confidence you gain carries with you out of the water" says Chalmers.

The case lays out Carroll's requirements of what had to be done before the Rustenburg mines could restart operations, including the implementation of a new safety program for tens of thousands of workers that called on the help of executives from other Anglo American businesses.

Hallow-Sheen: Guess What Charlie Sheen Dreesed Up As for Halloween?
Hint: Charlie Sheen had an incredibly meta Halloween.
-Lucia Peters
If you were Charlie Sheen, what would you have dressed up as for Halloween? Would you have dressed as something scary? Something hot? Maybe something resembling an upstanding member of society, given that it's something that your reputation could probably benefit from right now?
These are all excellent ideas. However, it appears that if you are, in fact, Charlie Sheen, you wouldn't have dressed up as any of these things. If you were Charlie Sheen, you would have dressed up as… Charlie Sheen.
Read Gerard Butler: "I Love David Beckham!"
That's right: Everyone's favorite imploding star went as himself for Halloween. According to TMZ, Charlie had heard a few months ago about an artist in Colorado named Landon Meier. Meier, you see, is known for making incredibly lifelike—and expensive!—Charlie Sheen masks. Charlie contacted Meier and agreed to give the masks his stamp of approval… as long as Meier gave him one of the $3,000 masks for free.
And thus it was that Charlie Sheen acquired the perfect Charlie Sheen costume. Vanity project? Maybe. And yet, somehow… it's just so Charlie. I wonder if he'll find a way to work it into his new show, Anger Management?

Originally posted by Inactive UserThis one time I was at a thrift store and didn't find much, but I did see a really vintage looking umbrella once. It was like the ones that are handcrafted in England and looked really nice with a worn wooden handle. This girl was looking at it and say me admiring it out of the corner of her eye. She smiled at me and we made eye contact. I asked if she was going to buy it and she took it and planted it to the ground and leaned on it like Charlie Caplin and replied "Why are you interested?" in a playful way. It was pretty cute. She ended up letting me buy it and we both went our ways.
A few days later I was at a cafe trying to warm up a bit with a cup of coffee. I had my umbrella with me which came in handy since it was pouring rain out. I was standing in line when all of a sudden this guy starts making a scene. He's yelling at his girlfriend and berating her in front of everyone and then he admits publicly that he's been cheating on her for awhile now. He storms out of the cafe with his umbrella in hand.
She rushes out into the rain and just stops in front of the cafe and I realize it's the same girl I met at the thrift store a few days back. Everyone inside is gawking and whispering about the whole thing... I grab my umbrella, walk out to her, but she's already soaking wet, shaking from the cold, and crying. I take my umbrella, lay it aside, and stand next to her in the rain sipping my coffee. She looks up at me, her lips still quivering, and just leans up against me grabbing my sleeve. We stand there for what seemed like hours, but without saying a word she starts walking while holding my arm. We end up outside of her apartment. She places a hand on my face, stares doe eyed at me, kisses me on the cheek, and goes into her apartment complex. To this day we have never met again.
So did I ever find something dope at a thrift store? Yea, I found true romance and an experience that will haunt my heart for a lifetime.
Write a book about it! This shit only happens in movies.

TV news outlets focused on Clinton fundraiser Hsu but ignored Romney finance co-chair Fabian's indictment for fraud
In recent days, NBC, CNN, and Fox News have all aired reports or discussed the case of Norman Hsu, who The Wall Street Journal suggested may have funneled illegal campaign contributions to Sen. Hillary Clinton. However, when Mitt Romney's national finance committee co-chairman Alan Fabian was charged with mail fraud, money laundering, bankruptcy fraud, perjury and obstruction of justice, the three networks did not report or discuss it during programs available in the Nexis database.
Between August 28 and August 31, NBC, CNN, and Fox News all aired reports or discussions on Norman Hsu, the Democratic donor known for being a top contributor and fundraiser to the campaigns of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY). The Los Angeles Times reported [1] on August 29 that, in 1991, Hsu "pleaded no contest to grand theft, agreed to serve up to three years in prison and then seemed to vanish. 'He is a fugitive,' Ronald Smetana, who handled the case for the state attorney general, said in an interview." The previous day, The Wall Street Journal had suggested [2] that Hsu may have funneled illegal campaign contributions to Clinton by reimbursing people for contributions made to Clinton under their names. However, there is no evidence that any candidate or committee who received money from Hsu knew anything about the controversies surrounding him, and many campaigns that received money from Hsu -- including Clinton's -- have since said they will donate [3] it to charity. On August 31, Hsu turned [4] himself in to authorities in California. The August 29 edition of CNN's The Situation Room, for example, teased the story with a picture of Clinton with the caption: "Fugitive Link."
By contrast, when Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's national finance committee co-chairman, Alan B. Fabian was, according to an August 9 Associated Press article [5], "charged in a 23-count indictment unsealed Thursday [August 9] with mail fraud, money laundering, bankruptcy fraud, perjury and obstruction of justice," NBC, CNN, and Fox News did not air reports or discussions about it during programs available in the Nexis database. The AP reported that Fabian "allegedly ran a scheme to make $32 million in false purchases of computer equipment, spending the money instead on beach real estate and private jet travel." Fabian resigned from Romney's finance committee shortly after being indicted, and the Romney campaign said it would return Fabian's $2,300 contribution, but not, however, "contributions from donors who were recruited by or have ties to Fabian," as The Boston Globe reported [6]. While Fabian's indictment has generated some [7] print [6] coverage [8], it has resulted in no television coverage on news shows airing on NBC, CNN, or prime-time shows broadcast on Fox News, according to a Nexis database search conducted by Media Matters for America on August 31.
Fabian, a former Bush Pioneer [9], has also made donations to other Republican candidates and committees, including to Rudy Giuliani, according to the Federal Election Commission's searchable donor database [10]. Giuliani's campaign said it would return [11] Fabian's contribution. At least one other campaign did not immediately return the money. The Hill reported [11] on August 15: "'We have no intention of returning the contribution,' said Matt Leffingwell, spokesman for [Rep. Jon] Porter [R-NV], who received nearly $1,500 from Fabian in 2004. 'Until the individual is convicted in a court of law, we don't return contributions.' " Fabian's arraignment is scheduled for Sept. 28.
According to Media Matters' review, the following shows included reports on or discussions about Hsu, but none reported or discussed Fabian:

- CNN's American Morning, August 31
- CNN's The Situation Room, August 30

Soul Legend Bobby Womack Dead At 70
Soul great and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Bobby Womack has died. A rep for Womack's label XL Records tells "Rolling Stone" Womack died Friday at the age of 70. No cause of death was given but the legendary singer did suffer from a series of health problems, including colon cancer and early signs of Alzheimer's disease, in recent years. Womack's decades-long career began in the early 1960s with the group he formed with his brothers called The Valentinos. They recorded the hit "It's All Over Now," which also became a hit for the Rolling Stones. The Cleveland-born Womack found success as a solo artist in the 1970s with albums such as "Across 110th Street," "Facts Of Life" and "Lookin' For a Love Again."
Womack's last album, "The Bravest Man in the Universe," was released to critical acclaim in 2012. He was in the midst of recording a new album before his death Friday. The set, titled "The Best Is Yet To Come," was reportedly set to feature contributions from Stevie Wonder, Rod Stewart, Snoop Dogg and others. Womack was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2009.

Goldman Sachs provides opportunities for people to grow and take on more responsibility as quickly as they can demonstrate the capability to handle it.
I work in the Operations division of Goldman Sachs. I manage a team of twenty business analysts and project managers who work on regulatory reporting. The team is responsible for the analysis and assessment of regulatory reports filed with external U.S. regulators, such as the SEC or the stock and options exchanges.
One of the most interesting aspects of my job is working with industry groups, such as the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA), to evaluate and lobby regulators to adjust rules to simplify compliance while also meeting the regulators' needs. It's great to be able to provide a "real world" operational perspective to the regulators.
Goldman Sachs provides opportunities for people to grow and take on more responsibility as quickly as they can demonstrate the capability to handle it. I was quickly provided with the opportunity to take on a leadership role in many initiatives that cut across functional groups.
Almost everything I do is team-based. The work that Regulatory Operations performs is very cross-functional, so we are almost always working on projects that include people from technology, compliance, legal, the business and other operations groups. Since our work is so tightly coupled with the trading and trade processing systems, we are constantly working with people from other areas to solve problems or improve processes.
My job gives me ample opportunity to learn. The firm's infrastructure is always changing as the business advances into new products and markets while improving the infrastructure to make it more efficient and scalable. Also, industry regulations continue to evolve as new rules are proposed and adopted. It's very challenging to navigate this ever-changing landscape. But this challenge also provides tremendous opportunities to learn about, and influence, the regulatory environment and the firm's infrastructure, products and business as we stay on the leading edge.
I attended MIT under a Navy ROTC scholarship so I knew that I would start my career as an officer in the U.S. Navy. At MIT, I studied Materials Engineering and thought that I'd likely try to get a job in the materials industry as a manager. During my last two years in the Navy, I was able to attend Fordham University's MBA program on a part time basis. In the program, I studied with many professionals who worked in the financial industry. The energy and intensity of Wall Street sparked my interest, and I was able to land a job as a technology manager at a New York investment bank.
During the six years I spent working at that firm, I often heard of Goldman Sachs' reputation for success from friends who worked there. When I heard about an opportunity to interview at Goldman Sachs Operations, I was excited to shift my career in a different direction – away from technology project management and more toward business and process management.
It was clear to me from the very beginning that Goldman Sachs was a special place. The people were top-notch – bright, hard-working and focused on both the success of the firm and its people. The effort expended on coaching, guiding and developing people is amazing. People were always willing to take time out of their busy days to provide information about a process or brainstorm about a problem. Also, I was struck by their interest in improving things and their open-mindedness and willingness to welcome new ideas.
The financial industry is an exciting and challenging industry in which to learn and to apply many different kinds of skills to solve business problems and improve processes. I think it's a great industry to work in. Since it is always evolving and growing and offers so many different kinds of roles, the opportunities are limitless.

Nature creates diamonds. Over millennia, under extreme pressure, three of their characteristics are established: the diamond's Color, Clarity and Carat size. These three aspects dictate a diamond's rarity and value. Only one aspect of a diamond's beauty is determined by man - how well it is cut. Cut is the key factor in determining a diamond's brilliance, fire and beauty.
At Gordon's Jewelers, our mission is to extract the brilliance from each of our hand-selected diamonds through exacting cuts that can't be found anywhere else.
If a diamond is cut too shallow, light leaks from the bottom; if cut too deeply, light won't reflect through the top. The Celebration Diamond Collection perfects this balance. Each cut in the collection intensifies and celebrates light in uniquely powerful and breathtakingly beautiful ways.When a diamond is cut, up to half the original stone weight - or carat size - can be lost. And carat size affects price. So every diamond manufacturer is faced with a choice: do you cut to maximize carat weight or cut to maximize beauty? At Zales, there is no question.In fact, every Celebration diamond is so expertly cut, it's guaranteed for life.* What nature took so long in making, we take great pride in celebrating. The Celebration Diamond Collection.
DIAMOND CERTIFICATIONEvery Celebration Diamond is individually certified and detailed with its own personalized certification card. The card is the diamond's birth certificate, identifying all the qualities that make it unique.The certification card also contains important light performance rating information that has been performed on the diamond by an independent diamond grading laboratory.LASER INSCRIPTIONEvery Celebration Diamond in this collection larger than .25ct. and larger receives a unique certification number. This certification number and the name of the collection is laser-inscribed on the girdle of the diamond ensuring authenticity and identification of the diamond. This number will also appear on the diamond certification card.CELEBRATION ENGRAVINGOnly diamonds that meet our exacting standards will receive the Celebration logo engraving on the inside of the ring's shank.

Through the Grapevine: Researching Sonoma and Napa
Published 12:00 am, Wednesday, September 15, 2010
SONOMA COUNTY, CALIF. — Labor Day weekend is normally crush weekend in Napa and Sonoma, but during a holiday weekend trip it was evident that harvest is two to three weeks late this season because of a mild summer. That left more grapes on the vine, which was not only breathtaking to see, but it was also more educational because you could identify the different varietals, and taste and test grapes in the vineyards.
Writing about wine includes a lot of reading, researching and meeting with winemakers when they visit San Antonio. They always come prepared with press kits full of information, such as appellations, grape varieties, maps and plenty of wine to taste. But nothing compares to seeing the rolling valleys of vines filled with grape clusters.
For instance, during a tour through the vineyard at Frei Brothers, we were able to taste cabernet sauvignon grapes off the vine and test the sugar content, or Brix. Most of the grapes from all but one of the nine Ernest & Julio Gallo-owned properties in Sonoma are taken to Frei Brothers for press, fermentation, barreling and bottling.
The massive operation is completed through a series of curving pipes, none of them at a 90-degree angle, to ensure that skins and seeds do not get lodged in the pipes. It also ensures that the grapes and juice have a calm, gentle ride.
Food & Drink Channel
Other highlights on the trip included touring the massive vineyard, fermentation and cellar rooms at Robert Mondavi Winery; a gorgeous picnic at William Hill Winery, where a micro winery was installed after Gallo purchased the property in 2002; a walk through Dry Creek Vineyard, a property that is doing some fun experimentation with zinfandel; and visiting the tasting room and manmade cave where the wine sits in barrel at Rutherford Hill. The cave, which is about a mile long if put end to end, is where a portion of the finale of Bravo's "Top Chef" was filmed.
The whole trip was planned around the annual Sonoma Wine Country Weekend — three days of winemaker dinners and lunches, the 18th Annual Sonoma Valley Harvest Wine Auction and the Taste of Sonoma, which presented a daunting task: 200 wineries, in five hours. The event was held at the MacMurray Ranch, once a cattle ranch owned by actor Fred MacMurray, and the wineries were divided by appellation — Alexander Valley, Dry Creek Valley, Russian River Valley and Sonoma Valley. It was a tough job, but there was a lot of research to be done.
The event is definitely a worthwhile way to get a taste from a lot of wineries. Whether attending the event or visiting the wine country, it's important to prioritize and plan wisely.
If you're planning a trip to Sonoma and Napa, it's best to call ahead to schedule time at some of the wineries that are by appointment only.
I had purchased two books that proved to be very helpful, Frommer's "Napa & Sonoma Day by Day" (Wiley Publishing, $12.99) and "California Wine Country" (Sunset Publishing, $19.95). They are great reference guides that include dining and lodging options, maps and a guide to the best wineries. The Frommer's guide includes contact information and hours.
