We extend our electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis studies of the chemistry of silicates to provide direct surface chemical information on the interactions involved in silicate-induced lung and tissue pathology. A total of five fibrous and non-fibrous silicate minerals, primarily amphiboles, have been studied: anthophyllite, tremolite, cummingtonite, hornblende and actinolite. We have followed the `inlattice' surface chemistry of these materials and monitored features such as the simultaneous presence of four- and six-coordinate (with respect to oxygen) structural aluminium, and the presence of iron in the M4 octahedral positions. In vitro experiments involving contact of the silicate with cultured murine Ehrlich cells have identified modifications in the surface chemistry of Al, Mg and Fe in the silicates and changes in cellular iron content.

We don't usually write something when new artwork is released for a game, but in some cases such as this one, we're willing to make an exception. Nexon just revealed some new art for Ghost in the Shell Online. We're a bit confused about the title of this free-to-play online FPS, since judging by one of the images, it could be called Ghost in the Shell Online: Stand Alone Complex – First Connection, something that will leave many players out of breath before they even finish saying it. So we're sticking with Ghost in the Shell Online for the time being.
Anyway, the new Ghost in the Shell Online artwork is very convincing, but we're a lot more interested in seeing real gameplay screens or even a gameplay trailer, something that Nexon is apparently going to release during next week.
Ghost in the Shell Online is a free to play online first-person shooter with hacking elements. Players will be able to use a skill sharing system through an "electronic brain network" for superior cooperative coordination. What this actually means, we're not quite sure, so we'll have to see it in action. Hopefully the "hacking FPS" tagline will mean that this game brings something new to the tired FPS genre. The Ghost in the Shell Online closed beta was scheduled for the second half of 2014 but it's likely that will be delayed into 2015.

Public Reading of Declaration of Independence Concludes 36-mile "Walk for Independence" to Portsmouth, NH
PORTSMOUTH, NH -- After the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, prints were made, couriers dispatched, and the Declaration read in towns throughout the colonies, including Portsmouth. This Saturday, July 4th, hundreds of citizen rebels again gather to hear the entire Declaration in Prescott Park as part of a new rebellion against big money politics.
Hosted by the NH Rebellion, the reading of the Declaration of Independence will be done by former Democratic State Senator Burt Cohen and former Republican State Representative and Assistant US Secretary of State Betty Tamposi. The cross-partisan reading and "Rally for Independence" come at the end of NH Rebellion's July 4th "Walk for Independence" from Rochester and Hampton to Portsmouth. The walks follow in the footsteps of legendary NH reformer Doris "Granny D" Haddock, who walked across the United States at the age of 90 to protest big money in politics.
"Just like in the American Revolution, the citizens are angry. Angry that their vote doesn't carry as much weight as a big corporation, which doesn't even have a vote," said Dan Weeks, a leader of the NH Rebellion. "We're out to change that, and demand that candidates for office take action against this corruption when they get to office," he said.
The event begins at 4:30 as free Ben & Jerry's ice cream is served to walkers and anyone who attends the rally, followed by the reading of the Declaration at 5 p.m. and speakers from the NH Rebellion. Citizens are still welcome to register for the free walk at walk.nhrebellion.org as well as attend the rally.
Lawrence Lessig, founder of the NH Rebellion, will be speaking at the rally. Lessig is a Harvard Law School Professor and internationally known expert on intellectual property, but has turned his time to organizing against the influence of big money in politics. His TED Talk "We the People" has had over 1.2 million views on YouTube and Lessig has spoken around the United States and with every major news outlet.

Lazy Foo replied to Lazy Foo's topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingOk one last thing I forgot to mention: Yes obviously nobody is going to be impressed by a Goraud shading demo in 2015, but this project has a second purpose. Metal, Mantle, DX12, GLnext, etc are The Next Big Thing™ and I wanted to get some practice in with them. A texture mapping demo won't light anybody's world on fire, but it serves as a good unit test. The purpose of the Basic set of demos is more to serve as unit tests for porting the render pipeline to a new API. The Intermediate and Advanced are for future interviews. Also the basic demos could be used as basis for something more advanced IE skeletal animation -> skeletal animation with IK -> skeletal animation with IK/Cloth. So yeah if the list of Basic demos look minimal, they're supposed to be. I just wanted to make a list of the bare minimum things to have so I could come back and expand upon them later.
Lazy Foo posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingSo as a personal side project I want create a bunch of graphics demos to portfolio-ize my graphics knowledge. I wanted some suggestions in terms of what to put in it. I want have three categories of demos: Basic - What you expect any first year prrofessional game graphics programmer to be able to do. Intermediate - If you were to take all the professional graphics programmers in the industry and sort them by ability, everybody on the good half of the bell curve would be able to do these demos. Advanced - What you'd expect a senior level graphics programmer be able to do. This is what I have planned for basic demos: -Mesh Loading -Gouraud Shading -Phong Shading -Texture Mapping -MultiTexturing -Normal Mapping -Cube Mapping -Cell Shading -Shadow Mapping -Image Post Processing -HDR -Deferred shading -Anti Aliasing -Skeletal Animation Is there any other basic demos I should add in? I plan on getting through the basic graphics demos and then do some AI demos as part of another project. I'll probably revist the graphics project when DX12/GLNext roll around and then add some intermediate/advanced demos to the mix. I could also use suggestions for intermediate/advanced demos.
Lazy Foo posted a topic in GDNet LoungeSo my current rig is getting on in age and has already had it's video card go out so I am in the market to put together a new one. I don't really keep up with the hardware trends and I have had bad luck when timing my purchases. Back when I bought my first computer with my own money, literally 3 weeks later the stores were flooded with shiny new multicores and I was stuck with a single core. So what I am looking for: -Price range: $1500-$1800 -A GPU that'll be able to run the latest DirectX/OpenGL APIs for a decent amount of time. -I am starting to study 3D animation so I would like something that will work well with 3DSmax/Maya. -Something with good Linux compatibility. I'll probably be running Xubuntu. So any recommendations for parts? Is now a good time to buy? Anything I want to avoid?
Lazy Foo posted a topic in Graphics and GPU ProgrammingSo I usually try to keep things cross platform by using OpenGL and other non-proprietary libraries, but my current job has me poking around in a lot of DirectX code.While there's quite a few similarities and I was able to be productive relatively quickly, I would like something that gives me an overview of how the API works. So I am looking for a book that's good for someone who uses primarily UNIX and cross platform APIs and wants to start working with Win32/DirectX11.
Lazy Foo replied to Zido_Z's topic in GDNet LoungeI was in student organizations for years and I can tell you biggest mistake that people make is that you never ever measure your success as an organization by how many people show up to your meetings. There's no value in having someone gawk at you, your officers, or a guest speaker for an hour a week. There's only one thing that matters in student organizations: Output that will help you in your career. Once you graduate, how large your mailing list is is a trivial matter. You goal is to churn out as many resume bullets and connections that you will be able to use when you get a job. Secondly, people who just show up to your meeting to stare are going to waste. Give them something to do. Also, you should have means to allow people to propose their own ideas. Thirdly, accountability is everything. Learn parliamentary procedure and take minutes. In the organizations I was involved with, and project/event we started had a charter that specified who was in charge, who was working on it, and a specific outline of the scope and timeline. Projects always go to hell and the first thing people do when things go wrong is not make things better, but start pointing fingers. Make sure people who are honest and responsible are protected.
Lazy Foo replied to zee_ola05's topic in Graphics and GPU Programming[quote name='zee_ola05' timestamp='1354067237' post='5004779'] Edit: I just checked. My laptop supports OpenGL 3.3. Do you guys think that it's better to just learn OpenGL 3.3, instead OpenGL 4? [/quote] Depending on what you want to do, the differences aren't all the big. The fundamentals of sending vertex data to a shader haven't changed much since OpenGL 2.1, but OpenGL 3.3 is missing nice stuff like tessellation and compute shaders. You can check out the [url="http://www.opengl.org/wiki/History_of_OpenGL"]history of opengl[/url] to find out the differences between the different versions. If don't understand what a feature means, odds are you won't miss it.[img]http://public.gamedev.net//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png[/img]
Lazy Foo replied to scott21493's topic in For BeginnersI made this [url="http://lazyfoo.net/tutorials/OpenGL/index.php"]OpenGL tutorial[/url] to teach the basics of rendering geometry, texturing and shaders with OpenGL 2.1/3.0. I recommend [url="http://www.arcsynthesis.org/gltut/"]http://www.arcsynthesis.org/gltut/[/url] as a follow up for the more advanced stuff.
Lazy Foo replied to matan1595's topic in For BeginnersI made these [url="http://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/index.php"]game programming tutorials[/url]. You might find them helpful. I recommend just dabbling in a bit of everything until you find something you like.
Lazy Foo replied to ar_lewis05's topic in For BeginnersI recommend [url="http://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/index.php"]these[/url] although I may be biased.
Lazy Foo replied to oscarcat's topic in General and Gameplay ProgrammingWhat you probably want to do is when the camera gets close to the edge of the room it should lock inside the room. Also, as mentioned in the OpenGL scrolling tutorial, you shouldn't be using the projection matrix to scroll your camera.
Lazy Foo replied to dhaval's topic in For Beginners[quote name='dhaval' timestamp='1346640916' post='4975924'] I get your Point @SimLab, but the problem is that, anything smaller than what I said is not acceptable as a final year project. Atleast that's what my professors said.[img]http://public.gamedev.net//public/style_emoticons/default/sad.png[/img] [/quote] Then complain to your department chair or whoever is above your professor. If they haven't even told you what a graphics API is, they don't know what they're doing (which is par for the course in academia).
Lazy Foo replied to pandaraf's topic in Graphics and GPU Programming[quote name='pandaraf' timestamp='1340166544' post='4950832'] Hi, i want to make buttons like Lazyfoo has : [url="http://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/lesson09/index.php"]http://lazyfoo.net/S...son09/index.php[/url] It use SDL_BlitSurface, i try that and work! But, actually i use SDL_opengl for the project. So, i can't use syntax like : "apply_surface( box.x, box.y, buttonSheet, screen, clip )" again. [img]http://public.gamedev.net//public/style_emoticons/default/sad.png[/img] I use this : "void muncul(int x, int y, int x2, int y2, int x3, int y3, int x4, int y4, GLuint xyz)" that work for show texture correctly. Of course, its only image that appeared. Not like buttons that has mouse_over, mouse_up, mouse_down and mouse_out(like lazyfoo). [img]http://public.gamedev.net//public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.png[/img] I want to make buttons in SDL_opengl [img]http://public.gamedev.net//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png[/img] So, How to use SDL_BlitSurface to make Button in SDL_opengl? [/quote] You can't. When using OpenGL rendering, you can't use SDL rendering calls. If you can make a texture appear, all you have to is make a different texture appear depending on the mouse state.
Lazy Foo replied to lride's topic in For Beginners[quote name='lride' timestamp='1346537808' post='4975569'] I mean it supports up to 2.1, but I don't want to waste time learning deprecated stuff. I made a snake game using SFML and OpenGL. Now I want to learn the new stuff, but unfortunately, my poor graphics card doesn't support it. [/quote] You can still learn a lot about OpenGL with a 2.1 implementation. If you haven't learned GLSL, you can still do quite a bit with with the 1.2 version that will be trivial to port to modern versions.
Lazy Foo replied to lride's topic in Graphics and GPU Programming[quote name='lride' timestamp='1346506011' post='4975421'] I have GLSL book, but is it okay to just learn the GLSL with almost no knowledge of OpenGL [/quote] Well if you don't know how to interface your GLSL programs with OpenGL executables it isn't very useful.

I am setting up an ASA 5505 and wanted to know if a VLAN would be the best way to segment the network so that certain PC's don't have internet access. ASA would have a site to site vpn setup and all pc's would still need ability to communicate across vpn.
All PC's also need to access a File Server and Several Network Printers on the LAN
Any suggestions on the config would be appreciated.

Aug 16, 2010 at 2:02 UTC
Yes, you can use VLAN for that but you must plan, design and define it very well becuase all PCs connected to this segment will not have web access and also you will need to have separated network for that, More secure and pratical is to use a proxy or application for restric this access, per example you can use: http://www.opendns.com/ for that.
Aug 16, 2010 at 2:03 UTC
Vlan is a big PIA if that's all you are looking to do. I just have a segment of IP addresses that have no access. Then I either make a DHCP reservation, or static IP them into that range. Then I have a firewall rule that blocks everything for them. Our DNS is internal, so it's still working, and all is happy. Only issue is when i run out of IPs in my chosen range of blockage...
Aug 16, 2010 at 2:06 UTC
You could create an ACL to block the PC if there are a few. That may be easier than setting adding a VLAN. You would place the PCs in an Object Group and then "permit" them to only access the network across the VPN then add a "deny" after that line to block everything else.
Aug 16, 2010 at 2:09 UTC
You could do it that way, if the machines you don't want getting internet don't need to communicate with other machines on the internal network (which could be made to work, but would be complicated). I have some machines I didn't want getting internet, but I needed them to be accessible by users on my LAN, and the machines needed access to file servers on the LAN. I gave these machines static IP's (could also be static DHCP leases) and used an ACL to block them. Something like:
access-list 100 extended deny ip host 192.168.1.100 any
That would block 192.168.1.100 from any IP communication to anything. Another ACL would allow VPN traffic. Note - I'd test the ACL thoroughly on a test machine first ;)
Aug 16, 2010 at 2:38 UTC
Setup the PC's with either static IP's or put in a DHCP reservation for each of them, then use ACL's to block them from accessing the Internet.
Aug 17, 2010 at 6:37 UTC
we use a proxy server to do this for us.
as we are a windows house we have 2 GPOS set up in Active Directory.
1 for users that have internet (they have a proxy setting in IE) and 1 for users that don't (no proxy).
we then block internet access at the firewall for any computers other than those that need it ie the proxy, SMTP server etc.
This works quite well for us as we can add/remove users internet access simply by changing their group memberships in Active Directory rather than constantly editing ACLS at the firewall.
It also allows us to monitor internet usage which is a bonus.
FYI we use a squid proxy running under ubuntu.
Aug 17, 2010 at 11:15 UTC
I've got a Cisco ASA5510 at my main office and an ASA55005 device in each of my external offices. I do have a VPN site to site tunnel setup for them but based on experience I'd recommend trying to use terminal services over that link and not have them opening files via VPN. The VPN tunnel is limited to 16Mbps max. Add some users using Outlook, internet services and opening files and you're going to really experience some slow down on their end.
Once I moved our users to TSvcs sessions they were much happier with the speed in which they could do their work. I do allow Outlook to use the vpn tunnel but have asked them to use Outlook via the Tservices session because its so much faster.
I'd recommend using a Barracuda device or Sonic wall device to monitor and deny internet access for each office. That's how I have things setup in our office, the Barracuda device makes all the decisions as to who has internet access or limitations leaving the Cisco devices to do basic routing.
Aug 20, 2010 at 7:58 UTC
Just throwin this out there but some users do know how to change their IP, especially if they saw you do it. And if they're determined enough, they probably know somebody who can tell them how to do it. There's always a few, believe me! So, even if you configured a static IP or a dhcp res, they can manually set their IP to some other IP in the subnet and POOF they've got full browsing access around your ACL that blocked their reservation.
That being said, VLAN. Its really not that complicated. Then just write your ACL for outbound internet access to allow vlan 1's subnet and not vlan 2's for http, https, ftp, etc. Then configure your VPN tunnel to include both subnets as the local networks one the one side and both as the remote network on the other side. Write it all out on paper, plan it well, and give it a try on a weekend. We're always here to help with planning too.
ALL that being said, I have to agree with the earlier post that a web filtering solution may really be the way to go. If you have an AD domain, you can configure browsing groups w/different access and filter based on user account; no IP restrictions required. This however, as is always a consideration in a project, requires spending some money. Websense does a good job for this and you can redirect all web requests by configuring many firewalls these days to use your websense server for browsing access.
Aug 20, 2010 at 9:06 UTC
If your users are local admins on the machines you're trying to block, you probably have bigger problems ;) A VLAN probably is the preferred solution, but you're right, there's a bit more involved - although since only VPN traffic (and nothing local) is required it shouldn't be that hard, actually. In my case I used an ACL since the machines needed file server access to internal machines and other inside resources.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My husband was recently approached by his boss (manager of the department). His boss wants him to spy on another coworker and make notations of all mistakes made by the employee and to report back to him. My husband did tell his boss that he didn't feel comfortable being a snitch, yet his boss is insistent. My husband is very concerned about the legalities of spying on a coworker and is seeking answers.
You didn't ask a question, but it is assumed you want to know if this is legal. I will turn the question around: What is the likely outcome if your husband either refuses, or simply does not do it?Ask a similar question
Hello Judy, It wouldn't cause my husband to lose his job but would more than likely cause his boss to not trust him.
Based solely on the information you provided, your husband has not been asked to do anything illegal. If he were asked to do something illegal and he refused, he would have some legal protection. But if he refuses to keep his eye on a co-worker and report mistakes he observes, he runs the risk of being disciplined or fired, himself. The question, here, is why does the boss want the co-worker watched? And what, exactly, is your husband being asked to do? If he believes there are some questionable motives, your husband should talk to an employment law attorney so learn about his rights and obligations under the law.
They say you get what you pay for, and this response is free, so take it for what it is worth. This is my opinion based on very limited information. My opinion should not be taken as legal advice. For true advice, we would require a confidential consultation where I would ask you questions and get your complete story. This is a public forum, so remember, nothing here is confidential. Nor am I your attorney. I do not know who you are and you have not hired me to provide any legal service. To do so would require us to meet and sign written retainer agreement. My responses are intended for general information only.Ask a similar question
Thank you Michael, The boss wants my husband to make a spreadsheet showing all mistakes that the employee makes. The employee has made numerous mistakes in the past and the boss wants them documented. Perhaps for termination if the mistakes continue.
While it sounds like your husbands employer is delegating its own management duties to your husband, it has the legal right to do so. I agree with the other comment that your husband is not being asked to violate the law, at least not as is apparent from your questions, and that there may be adverse employment consequences if your husband refuses. It's a lousy situation, to be sure, but employers hire employees for their benefit, not for the employees' benefit. Your husband can explain his discomfort or why he thinks he is not the best person to do this task, but don't expect the employer to be sympathetic. There is a reason the employer picked your husband for the job. And if your husband refuses or does a poor job, the employer may see him as disloyal or not a team player . . . not how any employee wants to be viewed when it comes times for raises, bonuses or promotions.
I agree this is a crummy situation. Unfortunately, employees and job applicants have very few employment rights, and employers have a lot of leeway in how they choose to run their businesses. In general, an employer can be unfair, obnoxious or bad at management. And an employer can make decisions based on faulty or inaccurate information. An employer has no obligation to warn an employee that he or she is not performing as the employer wants. It's not a level playing field. An employer hires employees to provide work for its benefit, not for the benefit of the employees. Don't expect the employer to take care of its employees; it doesn't have to and it rarely does.
There are some limitations on what an employer can do, mostly in the areas of public policy (such as discrimination law or whistle blowing), contract law, union-employer labor relations, and constitutional due process for government employees.

Employment rights come from the state and federal legislatures. One of the best things people can do to improve their employment rights is vote for candidates with a good record on pro-employee, anti-corporate legislation. Another way to protect employment rights is to form or affiliate with a union, or participate in a union already in place.

If the co-worker was obviously a member of a protected class; including the immutable characterisitc of age, race, gender, disabilty, religion, sexuality, etc, I would be tempted to protest that the "spying" seemed to derive from an improper motive and engage HR in the conversation.
But, this idea has obvious and serious hazards, .... and an entirely different way to look at it is perhaps your husband is being asked to demonstrate whether he has managerial skills to evaluate a co-worker's skills. Maybe your husband should be flattered. .
So, perhaps your husband should sit down with employment coach or attorney and get some clarity around what he's being asked to do, and how he wants to respond. .

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Daytime talker "The Tyra Banks Show" is moving to the CW's afternoon block in September, after airing in syndication for four seasons.
Economics played a role in its move out of syndication as stations are forced to make budget cuts amid the economic downturn. To cut costs, "Tyra's" production schedule will be cut to 26 weeks from 34, with an episode from the first four seasons airing at 3 p.m. and a new installment airing at 4 p.m. "Tyra" repeats also will continue to air in late-night on women's cable channel Oxygen.
Meanwhile, the CW is close to renewing Banks' "America's Next Top Model" for a 13th cycle.
"Tyra Banks" this season is averaging a 1.0 household rating, off 9% from the same period a year ago, which puts it in a different league from higher-rated talkers including "The Oprah Winfrey Show," "Dr. Phil" and "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," which is the only talker up year-over-year. But it's also averaging a 1.0 among women 18-34 -- the CW's target -- up 25% from a year ago and fourth among all talkers.

It isn't nailed on as the Motorola / Moto X, but this handset looks rather like the early diagrams of the Moto X smartphone, especially with its curved back. It doesn't match leaked images of other upcoming Moto phones either, like the Droid Ultra or Maxx. Conclusion? Google's head honcho has accidentally (or not) shown off the Moto X at the annual Allen and Co media conference.But that's not all we have. A promotional video from Canadian network Rogers has also broken, showing off the phone and its features. A real video? A number of takedown requests from the network suggests it is.Check out the video yourself, which explains some of the phone's features, including 'always on' voice recognition, the ability to learn which is your voice for added security, Active Updates to keep you updated in the background and some interesting camera functionality, like accessing the camera with a twist of the phone and burst mode shots by just holding your finger on the screen.Oh yes, there's a launch date of August too, with 11 August said separately to be the big day. Less than a month. We can't wait.Sources: Engadget and Pocket Lint

About Me
NOTE: I am only looking for photographers who can be prompt on returning photos...If it takes you more then 2 months to return edited photos from our shoot then don't book me untill you're less over worked. I shoot so I can get updated photos for my portfolio. I hate when I am kept guessing about when I will receive my photos. I show up on time & give my all to every shoot, so its not fair to keep me unsure about working with you.
About a year and 1/2 ago I turned my life around. In doing so I feel in love with fitness and bodybuilding which in turn inspired a new drive to get into the fitness industry. That's why for 2015 I want to make a new portfolio with more of a focus on fitness modeling opposed to editorial shoots.
If you're interested in Collaborating, please feel free to shoot me a message and we'll take it from there!

Panchamrita (Devanagari:पञ्चामृत, from Sanskrit: pañcāmṛta) is a mixture of five foods used in Hindu worship and puja,[1] usually honey, sugar, milk, yoghurt, and ghee.[2][3]
Pañcāmṛta is a Sanskrit compound of two words:
- Pañca, 'five'.[4]
- Amṛta, lit. 'immortal', "nectar of immortality, ambrosia, beverage of the gods".[5]
Equal quantities of Milk (preferably cow milk), Yoghurt, Honey, Sugar and Ghee are mixed together.[2][3] However, there may be certain regional variations in ingredients. Most south Indians add ripe banana[6] instead of sugar.Keralites may also include tender coconut. Some recipes also include grapes[7].
In Hevajra tantra
Beer (2004: pp.327-332) contrasts the Panchamrita of the Dakshinachara and the Vāmācāra and identifies that the "Left-Hand Path" (Sanskrit: Vāmamārga) of the Hevajra Tantra (and of the Anuttarayoga Tantras in general) worship with a different enumeration of the Panchamrita: human faeces, marrow, semen, blood and urine.[8]

Today's Daily Digit
A somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a scale of 1 to 10.
Express Forecast
Today: Sunny, moderate humidity. Highs: 85-89.
Tonight: Star-filled skies, calm. Lows: 57-64.
Tomorrow: Mostly sunny, lower humidity. Highs: 84-88.
Temperature Map
Humidity slips lower over the next two days but makes a comeback for an appropriate last summer weekend. Thunderstorms should hold off for most of us until Sunday or Monday so get the grilling in early this weekend. Later in the weekend, no wash out is expected, just a little more friendly garden-watering (at least I hope so or I am going to have to break down and find that sprinkler after all).
Hurricane Cristobal is far, far offshore with the only notable sign some 5 foot waves on the beaches this morning. On that note, the holiday weekend weather is just "beachy". Scroll to the bottom of this post for the beach weather outlook.
Today (Thursday): Being in the wake of Hurricane Cristobal comes close to assuring us crystal clear skies. A light westerly wind still elevates temperatures while the humidity slowly falls. Highs hit the mid-to-upper 80s. Confidence: High
Tonight: The stars come out in force as clear skies and drier air dominate. Winds are not to be found. Lows slip to the upper 50s to lower 60s. Confidence: High
For related traffic news, check out Dr. Gridlock. Keep reading for the forecast through the weekend…
Tomorrow (Friday): A few clouds may splotch our blue skies today but sunshine still dominates. Breezes are very faint. Highs top out in the mid-to-upper 80s but humidity levels are quite tolerable. Confidence: High
Tomorrow night: The evening encourages outdoor activities (not talking about sitting in traffic) with readings near 80 under starry skies and a lovely crescent moon on the western horizon. Winds are mainly calm. Lows only fall to the mid-to-upper 60s. Confidence: High
Saturday is the kind of day that makes you want to find the nearest, pool, beach or shady park and take in a fine summer day. Humidity climbs but not yet painfully. Skies are mainly sunny but pop up clouds are likely by afternoon. There is a very slight chance (<20%) of an isolated afternoon or evening t'storm but any should quickly die out at sunset. Highs top out in the upper 80s to lower 90s and overnight lows hold in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Confidence: Medium-High
Sunday starts percolating with highs climbing to the upper 80s to the lower 90s and humidity on the verge of painful. This sets the stage for a much more likely uptick in t'storm activity (40% chance), especially late afternoon and evening. Sadly, the clouds may obscure yet another impressive conjunction of the crescent moon, Mars, and Saturn in the western horizon after sunset. Overnight lows remain summery with upper 60s to lower 70s. Confidence: Medium
Labor Day (Monday) ends the official summer season in style with a good deal of sun (at least to start the day), humidity, and t'storm chances (60%). The showers may at least cut the heat back to just mid-to-upper 80s but may make for some returning holiday traffic issues. Confidence: Medium
Beach Weather looks good up and down the coast. Southern Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland beaches start the weekend in the upper 70s to lower 80s and end in the mid-to-upper 80s. Lows mainly hold in the 60s. Beaches in Virginia and North Carolina see highs in the low-to-mid 80s climb to the upper 80s to lower 90s with lows ranging from mid 60s early to lower 70s later. T'storm chances do not really show up until Sunday night in most areas and then are only about 30%, climbing to 40% on Monday. Ocean temps are mainly mid-to-upper 70s and waves should only run 1-3 feet as winds remain on the light side throughout. Confidence: Medium-High

The unzipped distribution contains some unnecessary files that I weeded out of the webapp -- demos, tests, etc. But the deployed webapp (which just contains the library files) still weighs in at 4.3mb, so you can start to see the savings when multiple apps in the same server share the same copy. I've also read about clustered applications sharing a single copy of Dojo using its experimental new cross domain feature. It might be possible to make the shared copy smaller by using Dojo's custom build feature which allows you to create a streamlined library that only contains the stuff you need, and all bundled into a single file. Cameron Braid provided some input to that effect earlier in this thread. As people start to use the webapp I hope we can collect some feedback that will help determine where to take that idea.

At my wits end about ending things on a good note(15 Posts)
DS1 is 4. He has many, many lovely qualities - he is funny, kind, generous with his things, and extremely loving. However, I am becoming increasingly frustrated with his behaviour whenever we do 'nice' things.
More often than not, if we go out somewhere (to play with at one of his friends' houses, soft play etc), I can't get him to leave without a massive fuss and/or tears. He doesn't want to go home, which he repeats continually, and things can spiral pretty quickly.
It hasn't always been like this, but it has been going on for almost a year now. It's wearing me down and making me feel like there is no point in bothering because I know what is probably coming
This weekend he had to miss 2 birthday parties as he has chickenpox. He was disappointed (obviously), but understood when we explained that it was to stop other children catching his chickenpox. Because it was such a nice day, we decided to try and treat him a bit. We had a picnic in the garden, some games, and tried to give him lots of positive attention. It all ended in tears though, as soon as it was time to start packing things up.
I've tried ignoring the fuss, to the point of having to drag him out from under a table/chair and strapping him kicking and screaming into a car seat. It kept happenening.
I've tried explaining that I/DH will not want to take him places if his behaviour doesn't improve. He appears to take it in in the moment, but a few days later (even with a reminder), the same.
The only minor success I've had is priming him on what I would like while we are on our way out, eg "when it is time to leave, what should you do?", then talking about the 'desired' behaviour. I then follow this with a 10 minute warning (and quick reminder), before a cheery "Right, shoes on!". It has worked sometimes, but it's so bloody hit-and-miss.
I general, he is extremely excitable and is quite hard to wind down - getting his attention is tricky when he is in that state. This probably doesn't help, but the 'leaving' problem is different. It gets to the point where he sometimes just sobs loudly, not listening to anyone.
Anybody have any ideas?
have you got my DS? I have no great ideas to add, but wanted to say our 4yo is much the same, also like it when it comes to bed time as that is the 'end of whatever he is doing' and he really really doesn't like stopping whatever he is doing, whatever it is. Meltdowns are usual at the moment.
I shall watch this thread for the advice that others give you and sorry I can't be much more helpful than giving a hand to hod, and some earplugs.
Thank you! I have been feeling that my DS is the only one - I never see other DCs acting this way. The odd raging tantrum, yes. Complete meltdowns every time, no.
I'll take the earplugs, and the hand, and feel a bit more normal now I know it's not just me
I think the "not wanting to leave" tantrum is very very normal, especially if he's tired. Try not to over-stress about everything having to end "nicely", if he had several hours of good fun then even quite a lot of fussing and sobbing doesn't spoilt it.
What you are doing is right. The priming beforehand, the ten-minute warning, and keeping things cheerful and riding out the storm if there is one, is indeed probably the best way to go. I would just try not to let it bother you when it doesn't work. Once you're in the car or safely home, do remember to praise him for getting ready and going to the car so calmly (which may trigger tears in itself if he's really overtired but do it anyway). If there's anything that he wants enough you could try fixing up a bribe for going straight to the car with no fuss, but he may be too tired and overstimulated for that to work.
Especially if all he's doing is sobbing. If he's not kicking out and biting people you really don't need to worry (just don't ask me how I know that)
I have a DD, she is 7 now, and she never acted like this, so it's hugely new to us too, and we have wondered if it was DS, rather than an age thing. Several people have said it is a 'boy' thing, but I don't really like, and don't necessarily agree that there are particular 'boy' behaviours, like we can just put it all down to his 'boyness' I am prepared to be corrected of course!
I find I cajole, persuade, bribe, encourage,
give in much more than I ever did with DD. We found the 'rinse and repeat' method worked well to get DD to change behaviours that we did not like, bedtime routines in particular were improved with just being consistent. But it doesn't work with DS! And leaving anywhere makes me, like you, dread taking him places, as the end result is always so stressful. He does an 'angry imp' dance (done it ever since he could stand up in his cot) when he does not get what he wants, in relation to something ending (anything, not just out, but watching a movie before it's finished, playing lego because it's bedtime, turning the tele off/putting down paper and pens because we are going out), and he has been prone to this to some extent from time to time throughout his life, but it has markedly got worse/regular for about 6 months, maybe a little less. The intensity has increased though and I am wondering how much of it is due to tiredness/growing - maybe having mental and physical growing spurts. I wonder also if he is hungry more than we realise as eating often helps the behaviour that can lead to behaviour that you talk about, that wound up state.
But, re going out and about, have not found a solution other than simply 'right, well, I have your shoes in my hands, if you won't put them on, we will go without you'. DH has taken him to the car without his trousers on when he has refused to stop what he is doing and get dressed (or when he has changed his trousers for the umpteenth time as he doesn't like certain waistbands, leg lengths, etc but that's another thread!)
Funnily though, at pre-school he is a gem, lovely behaviour, they laugh when I say he has had a tantrum that morning, they don't believe me! hardly has meltdowns (although when he does it's around not wanting to stop doing something) and has no problems leaving to come him even though he loves it there.
Dd2 does this too sometimes. She's 4 as well.
Sometimes the priming and the warnings work, other times she rolls her eyes and says "I know, I haven't got to tantrum" then does it anyway
I felt like the worst mother in the world last week when I took her to the cinema and she had a huge tantrum in the lobby as we were leaving, I had to chase her round the bloody queue of people waiting for the next film, then hold onto her hand quite forcefully for the 10 minute walk back to where we'd parked the car. She screamed and sobbed the whole time, shouting "OW,OW, OOooow, you're hurting me, my arm, my arm, my arm" while she kicked at me to try and get me to let go. Everyone seemed to be staring, and other small children were watching us go past saying "why is that girl crying so much?". I was MORTIFIED!
Have you tried bribery? I used to meet mine at the bottom of the slide on their last go (after a warning) with a chocolate bar. Or park next to an ice cream van!
I know it isn't an ideal solution, but perhaps it will work for long enough to break the cycle.
dragon I take it all back about DD never doing this. You have just reminded me! DD did it, but think she was younger!? Oh I can't remember in supermarkets mostly, less about leaving somewhere though, and more about not wanting to go where we did. I remember well holding her hand and her dragging herself along the floor in sainsburys doing just that 'ow, stop! your hurting! stop hurting me! how!' and DH then just lifting her under his arm with her kicking and screaming 'put me down! you're hurting!' like DH was trying to hurt her or kidnap her, DH was mortified as everyone stared! Those were not that common though.
OP, seems like it might be an age thing?! <crosses fingers>
DS1 was a bit like this. He is very sensitive to his emotions (still is at 8yo) and when he was a bit older than 4yo, he managed to explain that saying bye to his friends was very sad and he didn't like it.
We got round this by me explaining that DS1 found saying goodbye very difficult but that he had still had a lovely time, thanks for having us/coming to visit etc (it happened both at ours and when leaving others) and leaving swiftly, usually carrying him and probably his shoes too.
He got over it eventually!
Dd1 never did this, so it's taken me completely by surprise with dd2. One of dd1's friends had a really long phase of having a massive meltdown at the end of every event (coming to play/us going there/meet at park) and I used to wonder what her parents were/weren't doing to provoke such a reaction in her every single time
Well, whatever they were doing then, I'm apparently doing now with dd2. I do believe it's just a personality and age thing, and it's purely the luck of the draw as to whether you get a child who tantrums or one who calmly accepts everything that needs to happen. I was lucky with dd1, not quite so lucky with dd2 (she doesn't sleep well either )
Kleinzeit - you are right, of course. He hasn't spoilt the whole day - that has just been my perception. That also means that when we each remember the day, we probably have very different recollections. I'm focused on the tears at the end, but for him he probably just remembers that he saw friends or had fun playing.
He isn't biting, and it's extremely rare that he gives a frustrated kick at something or (even rarer) someone. That is something to be grateful for
I do think some of it is tiredness and overstimulation, but I can't see any way around it. I try hard to give him time to rest, and sometimes nap if he seems to need it, but he plays HARD, and seems constantly on the brink. Maybe I need to try finishing things even earlier? I probably dread the meltdown, so put it off a bit.
Pavlov it's interesting that you say your DS is happy to come home from pre-school. Mine too. He loves it, it is really fun for children as it is on a farm and has lots of outdoor activities. DS is very confident and happy being places without DH or I, yet it is probably the only place I can take him home from without a fuss. I have taken him to a couple of children's screenings at the cinema too, and he left without fussing, but the film had very obviously ended. (I also hope it is an age thing)
I did laugh at your 'angry imp' description - there our DSs differ. My DS has a 'happy imp' dance, when he is very excited. When angry he just goes from quiet to screaming rage.
strawberryangel I am absolutely not against bribery. When it comes to stopping what we are doing though, nothing is more attractive to him than what we are doing. He doesn't care what else is on offer, even though it should logically be more attractive.
Dragonlette We can't both be the worst mothers in the world! It is mortifying though. I never let him see that I'm embarrassed, but sometimes I wish the earth would open and swallow me.
It has been going on for nearly a year, I think, but it just seems to be getting worse. And what makes me even more frustrated is that in all the time that this has been going on, I have never once given in and let him have his way. But yet he continues. Please let it be an age thing.
We've been having similar for a couple years now, not just over goodbyes but any sorts of transitions.
Here are a few things that work well for us:
Focus on the new activity, not the "leaving"... So reframe the " warning" as a fun reminder: "Guess what, after we finish eating we're going to get in the car and play a game/watch a movie on mums smartphone/eat something yummy"
If the new activity is not fun then MAKE it fun! Cheap little toy, silly singing and dancing, etc.
LOTS of support and validation for his emotions. "Wow, you're crying really loudly. You must be so sad about leaving. It's okay to be sad. You can cry as much as you want."
Lots of praise. "You really don't want to leave but you're still doing it. Good for you. It's not easy to say goodbye, well done you."
Be silly and exaggerate. "You don't want to leave. You wish we could stay here all night. Where would we sleep? Do you think we would get cold? Ooh that sounds fun! I wish we could stay here forever!" (While strapping him into his carseat)
mawbroon - that made me remember, DS has said that he is sad to leave places. He does use quite emotional language to describe things in general, but I hadn't really considered that he was feeling genuine sadness, as opposed to disappointment. Thrilled to hear he got over it though
what helps for us (although DS is much younger) is:
-waving and expressing a proper goodbye to toys, objects, the building, etc.
-while leaving, a very detailed reiteration of all of the lovely things he just did - "that was a fun bath, wasn't it? you played with the boat and made it go up and down on the waves, and then you blah blah blah". Somehow putting it into a past narrative allows him to access it and continue enjoying it just enough to get him out of there.
My 4YO DS is just like this too! The only time in recent memory that I recall him NOT behaving like this was when I took him and his brother to the park a couple of weeks ago. (Normally, outings to the park are done along with Dad too, but it was a nice sunny day and Dad was at work so we had a picnic in the park and played afterwards - just the 3 of us).
After about 30 minutes playing, I told them that in 15 minutes we'd be going home. Then 5 minutes later told them we'd be going in 10 minutes. I gave them a 5 minute warning, and when it was time to leave, they both happily left.
Whether or not they complied because of the countdown warnings or because Dad wasn't around (they can sometimes play up more for Dad) I'm not sure.
Have you tried this technique? I'm trying now to do it with everything we do so nothing comes as a shock and they have time to get used to the idea. ("In 20 minutes, we're going to pack away our toys and have a bath", etc). Might be worth a try?
