The God of every story
Best known for penning Indescribable, Laura Story is back this month with her fourth studio album God Of Every Story.
Her previous offering, Blessings was described by the singer as a "bunch of songs about worshipping when life is hard". Laura's husband Martin had been diagnosed with a brain tumour and the singer found herself wondering "why don't you just fix it, God?"
There's good reason to read the album title as "God of every Story" with a capital 'S' as the closing verse of the title track is "Martin is thankful he's alive / The doctors said he might not survive / That was 7 years ago, what a miracle / Now there's this new baby girl / With one breath she's changed our whole world / Some say she looks like dad, but she looks like grace to me."
As well as being a deeply personal offering, Laura's new album is also a worship project. The wealth of God-centred tracks is unsurprising given that many of them have been written with seasoned worship writer Jason Ingram (Forever Reign, Awake My Soul and Never Once).
Opener, There Is A Kingdom, is chirpy and upbeat, full of sparkling acoustic guitars and a vocal that overpowers the rest of the mix. If you've ever uttered the words "Christian music sounds the same" this is not the recording for you. Yet, as the appearance of Ed Cash in the production credits suggest, this is a very well put together album.
Fans of Kari Jobe will love the combination of joyful pop music mixed with declarations of praise. Those looking for new songs to sing at church would also do well to give God of Every Story a good listen.
O Love Of God picks up where Indescribable left off. "I see you in the stars above, I feel you in the earth below," Laura sings. Keeper of the Stars also picks up on the creation theme and you know the singer means it when she says, with considerable emotion in her voice "The vows of faith you teach me to see / The light in every dark night / knowing it will be alright".
This is a project brimming with faith and trust. Every line is delivered with the kind of certainty that many Christians would find enviable. But Laura's story (forgive the pun) is one that demonstrates the faithfulness of God, so this theme is bound to come through in her music.
While it would be easy to describe Laura as a singer, her biography on Twitter reads differently. "Play a little music on the side," she writes playfully, choosing to place her occupation as a mother as priority number one.
Final track He Will Not Let Go is a piano led ballad that comes and goes all too quickly. It's the kind of track you'll want to play over and over again, especially when times are hard. The combination of beautiful music and heartfelt lyrics is so special that any description of this song would be inadequate.
This album is a project best understood in the light of Laura's own life. Indeed the play on words (story/Story) will be misunderstood or ignored unless careful attention is played to the aforementioned lyrics in the title track.
A comparison can perhaps be made between this album and Steven Curtis Chapman's Beauty Will Rise (the latter was produced after a family tragedy which resulted in the death of Chapman's 5-year-old daughter). Although Chapman's record is significantly darker, both recordings mix tragic circumstances with hope and with worship.
While the music on Story's latest project may seem ordinary and run of the mill, the experiences behind it are anything but that. And it's those experiences which fuel Laura's voice on God of Every Story and gives listeners a unique insight into the singer's life.

Hi. I am new to the area and wondering in the land of a thousand mom and pop italian restaurants and pizzerias... are there any good meatball heros? I am finding most of these small restaurants make their meatballs hard as a rock and they are not moist on the inside.

The body of a nude man was found floating Thursday morning in Silversmith Creek under the 6800 block of Atlantic Boulevard, according to the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office.
The body was discovered by a woman in what appears to be a homeless camp, Sgt. Michael Paul said. He looked to be about middle-aged.
Paul said police are treating it as an undetermined death.
"There does not appear to be any trauma on the victim's body," Paul said. "There is a homeless camp in the area, so we are looking into that to see if he is someone who could possibly be homeless."
Police said the man was seen alive within the past day and may have been bathing underneath the Atlantic Boulevard overpass when he died. Traffic was blocked in one eastbound lane for a few hours Thursday morning due to the police investigation and body recovery.

UTA In The News — Thursday, October 17, 2013
Kinesiology assistant professor's research shows variances
Online site The Verge featured a story on new concussion research by Jacob Resch, a UT Arlington assistant professor of kinesiology. Resch looked at different versions of the popular computerized concussion test ImPACT and found a lack of equivalency between the tests, which could make them less reliable. Using his research, doctors can compensate for ImPACT's weaknesses by knowing that a certain component of the test skews one way or the other.
Rising secularization explained
Brent Sasley, associate professor of political science at UT Arlington, was quoted in an Al Jazeera America story about an increasing secularization of American Jews, decreasing affiliation with synagogues and organized religion and changes in Jewish American attitudes to Israel. Sasley said establishment groups "accepted by the government and other organizations as the official interlocutor for the Jewish community" may not represent the broader grassroots.
Professor, doctoral student mentioned for find
Oct. 17 is the birthday of Jupiter Hammon, the first published black poet in America, and has been promoted as Black Poetry Day since 1970, The Examiner reported in a story that mentioned UT Arlington doctoral student Julie McCown. McCown and her professor, Cedrick May, were credited earlier this year with discovering an unpublished poem "An Essay on Slavery" written by Hammon in 1786.
Art professor believes FWISD fine arts campus a plus
Sedrick Huckaby, a Fort Worth artist who teaches drawing and painting at The University of Texas at Arlington, was quoted in a Fort Worth Star-Telegram story about a proposal for a new performing/fine arts campus for the city's school district. Huckaby believes an arts focus helps gifted students find their artist's voice.
Smaller apartment complex approved
A proposed apartment complex near UT Arlington that was previously rejected by the City Council received a second chance Wednesday when the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval of a scaled-back design with fewer beds, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. In August, the City Council voted 6-3 to deny Greystar Student Living's plans for the four-story Arlington Lofts at 815 W. Abram St. The developer has come back with a revised plan with nearly 100 fewer beds and smaller parking garage.

Those guys over at Vice's new video channel Noisey have brought us another cracker of a clip, this time setting up two influential musicians to just "sit down and talk like two humans".
In this first episode, tUnE-yArDs sits down with St Vincent's Annie Clark, as they natter about a variety of topics from the outdated importance of gender in music to not caring if some listeners regard their music as "ugly".
Overall though, it's a comic affair. Annie even pretends to be Katy Perry, while Merrill Garbus gives an impression of Justin Bieber (you know, from the band "Justin Bieber").
Do have a watch of the vid above.

New Bern, N.C. running back Montario Hardesty returned recently from his first official visit to Lincoln to check out Nebraska. Hardesty is in the process of deciding what other visits he will take at this point between his remaining six favorites.
"I'm still looking hard at Clemson, Virginia Tech, Notre Dame, Tennessee, North Carolina and North Carolina State," explained Hardesty. "I'm not sure if I'll take all of my official visits, or if they will all be official visits when I go. I may take unofficial visits to State and Carolina since I've seen them a lot already."
Hardesty does have one unofficial visit lined up for late November.
Article Continues Below
"I'll be in Blacksburg the weekend Virginia Tech plays Virginia in late November," admitted Hardesty. "I recently set up that visit with Coach Wiles at Tech. I'm in touch with him quite often."
Nebraska, Virginia Tech and Hardesty's five other favorites are all looking for him to be a tailback at the college level despite early speculation of Hardesty possibly being a player in the secondary.
"Florida State was the only school looking for me to play safety," stated Hardesty. "I'm a tailback first and that's where I intend to play."
Hardesty had a glowing review of his initial official visit to the Midwest.
"I thought it (Nebraska) would be all cornfields, but the campus is in a pretty urban setting in Lincoln," said Hardesty. "The fans and the atmosphere were great. I really like the facilities too."
What is Hardesty looking for in a school?
"I want to see where I fit in on the depth chart as well play for a winning program," explained Hardesty. "We've been a winning program in high school, and I'm not used to losing a lot of games."

I understand. I'm pretty close to NH and will have to make a journey down I-93 to lower Mass Ave., as well. But why do you need a consensus of hounds to decide whether the new dog is as good/better than the old one? Do you mean that you would only take the trip if there is such a consensus? Wouldn't you want to make up your own mind?
If there was a huge group of people that said that the dog's gone to the dogs - it's no good any more - then I could see that a negative consensus might keep me from bothering to make the trip. But there's been no such mass response. It's a fact that it's changed - but that alone shouldn't keep a hound from checking it out. I'm planning a trip right now - my regular rounds of Reliable and Kotobukiya - but now, instead of a katsu kare or maybe a burger at O'Sullivan's, I'll journey on down to Newmarket for a new and improved (maybe) Speed's Hot Dog.
I guess all I'm saying is that this site is good for information of all sorts - good, bad, good-but... If I waited for a true consensus before deciding on a place, I'd miss out on a lot.

wikiHow to Kill the Shop Robbers in GTA V
Two Methods:Killing the Bob Mulet RobbersKilling the Robbers at the Suburban ShopCommunity Q&A
Two random events in Grand Theft Auto V require you to kill the robbers of two different shops. These events can be done in any order and are available to any playable character. Completion of the "Pulling Favors" mission is required to unlock the event at Bob Mulet, and the "Friend Request" mission must be completed before you can do the event at the Suburban shop.
Killing the Bob Mulet Robbers
1Travel to the Bob Mulet Hair Salon in Rockford Hills. It is one block west of a Ponsonbys store. An icon of a pair of scissors will indicate its location on your map. Enter the store once you get there.
- It is best to take a fast vehicle, such as a Comet or Bravado Banshee, since you may need to chase the robbers once they escape in a Gallivanter Baller.
- You can avoid a car chase by using explosives. If you decide to do so, stock up on explosives (such as sticky bombs or grenades) at an Ammu-Nation.
- Unlike most random events, there will be no indication on your map that this event has triggered.
2Enter the hair salon. A short cutscene will be triggered in which the robbers have you get on your knees while they rob the salon. Shortly after, they will leave the salon and escape in their vehicle.[1]
3Kill the robbers. Follow them out of the salon and lob an explosive at their vehicle to kill them all at once. If you choose to chase them in your vehicle, you will need to disable their Gallivanter Baller by shooting at the tires. Alternatively, you can drive in front of them and park your car there to stop them. Once their vehicle has stopped, shoot and kill them.
4Pick up the bag of cash, then return it or keep it for yourself. You will not be rewarded for returning the money.[2] If you decide to keep it, you'll have gained $2,000.
Killing the Robbers at the Suburban Shop
1Visit the Suburban shop in Del Perro. It is located on Prosperity Street Promenade, and appears as a T-shirt icon on your map. When you enter the shop, you will see a short cutscene in which the robbers steal from the shop and then escape on foot.
- This random event will not appear as a blip on your radar.[3]
- During the cutscene, take note of which robber has the cash bag.
2Kill the robber with the cash bag. The robbers will have run in separate directions. Shoot at the robber carrying the cash bag until you've killed him.
- You can kill them all, if you want, but it's unnecessary. The robbers who are not carrying the cash bag will only drop the amount most non-playable characters (NPCs) carry, around $20.
3Take the cash bag, then keep it or return it to the store owners. You will obtain $2,000 if you decide to keep the money. Returning it to the store owners will result in a 25% discount on one item.[4]
- The discount is only available at this Suburban shop.
- You can exit the shop and still be able to use the discount once you return.

About the Collection
This collection of photographs of daily life in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics is drawn from the personal papers of Robert L. Eichelberger and Frank Whitson Fetter, two ordinary Americans who found themselves in an extraordinary place and time.
Eichelberger (1886-1961), a career military officer, was stationed in Eastern Siberia during the Russian Civil War (1918-1921) alongside other members of the American Expeditionary Force, which was sent to protect the world from Russian Communism and Japanese militarism.
Fetter (1889-1991), a professional economist, toured southern Russia in the summer of 1930, during the height of the force-draft industrialization and collectivization campaigns that accompanied the promulgation of the First Five Year Plan (1928-1932).
Both men left unique photos of their encounter with ordinary individuals of the self-proclaimed first socialist country in the world. Their images of life in the Soviet provinces between the World Wars reveal an agrarian, multi-ethnic country, still reeling under the impact of the revolutionary forces unleashed at the beginning of the 20th-century.

I spent all day yesterday not being able to log into Kinja. (I would try to log in using my same old method and the sign-in window would jsut disappear without logging me in.) Finally, in desperation, I created a burner account so I could at least come here and ask, "WTF"?
But, as you can see, even though I signed in with a burner, I'm back in my old account.
Note: I did switch to a different browser yesterday, but had successfully logged in with it prior to the weird shit happening.
So my question is this: Is that kinja being kinja, or do I need to fix some setting in Firefox now?

Congenital hypothyroidism is one of the most common treatable causes of intellectual disability (mental retardation). Screening programs have been established in most developed countries to detect and treat this disorder, which affects approximately 1 in 2000 to 1 in 4000 newborns [1,2]. (See "Clinical features and detection of congenital hypothyroidism".)
Delays in diagnosis and treatment of congenital hypothyroidism will result in impaired neurocognitive outcome (as measured by intelligence quotient [IQ]). Even after diagnosis, IQ and neurologic development may suffer if the infant has hypothyroidism during the first two to three years of life, a time of critical brain dependence on thyroid hormone. Hypothyroidism in such infants may result from inadequate treatment during the first two to three years of life, as might occur with poor adherence to daily administration of medication or lack of appropriate monitoring and thyroid hormone dose adjustments. Thus, appropriate initial therapy and follow-up are essential [3].
The overall goals of treatment are to assure normal growth and development and psychometric outcome similar to genetic potential, by restoring the serum T4 concentration rapidly to the normal range followed by continued clinical and biochemical euthyroidism.
Oral levothyroxine (L-T4) is the treatment of choice. Although triiodothyronine (T3) is the biologically active hormone, the majority of brain T3 is derived from local deiodination of T4; thus, it is not necessary to use T3. To correct hypothyroxinemia as rapidly as possible, treatment should be initiated in an infant with a clearly positive screening test as soon as confirmatory blood samples have been drawn, pending results. In cases in which screening tests are borderline, a treatment decision can be made after results of the confirmatory tests return [4]. (See "Clinical features and detection of congenital hypothyroidism", section on 'Newborn screening'.)
Dose of L-T4 — Both the timing and dose of thyroid hormone replacement are important [5-7]. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the European Society for Paediatric Endocrinology (ESPE), and the American Thyroid Association (ATA) recommend a starting L-T4 dose of 10 to 15 mcg/kg/day [4,8,9]. Considering that the lowest dose levothyroxine tablets are 25 or 50 mcg, this usually amounts to 37.5 or 50 mcg/day in full-size term infants [4]. In preterm and other low-birth weight infants, we also recommend using 10 to 15 mcg/kg per day, though in milder cases, often characterized by delayed TSH elevation, a starting dose of 8 to 12 mcg/kg per day is sufficient to normalize thyroid function. (See "Thyroid physiology and screening in preterm infants".)To continue reading this article, you must log in with your personal, hospital, or group practice subscription.

Firm Decision-making Structure and Compliance with Environmental Regulations: Evidence from Environmental Auditing
We explore how limits to our insight on the underlying decision-making structure of regulated entities may affect the conclusions we draw about the likely impacts of environmental policies, with a focus on environmental auditing. We examine the conditions under which a multi-facility firm chooses to adopt a standardized auditing. Our firm-level empirical analysis confirms that a uniform auditing outcome is less likely among firms (1) with a more heterogeneous portfolio of facilities, and (2) that are less likely to make decision errors. We examine the implications of adding controls for firm decision-making structure in a facility-level empirical analysis of auditing's impact on compliance. Our results suggest that the estimated compliance impact of auditing varies depending on whether or not we include these controls.

I can't help but sing the song as I write this.. PURPLE RAINNN. This gorgeous colour was released last fall by NARS and one of my good friends Sophie gave this bad boy to me. I have to admit I had only swatched it and today was the first time I applied it. WHY? I don't know it is so beautiful. The thing I love most is that it comes out exactly how it appears in the bottle, CHANEL take notes!
[Without Flash]
I had so many comments on this colour today and I think again, it's perfect for this time of year. I just wish one thing, that it didn't chip as quickly as it has. I haven't really been a fan of metallic/shimmery nails but I am slowly swaying. With colours like this and Illamasqua's Viridian I am almost converted. It really reminds me of a Barry M one I used to wear in my teens, I'm not sure if they still make it and I have no idea what the colour is? Does anyone know?
[This is how pretty it is under natural light]
Off the subject, but semi on the subject.. Have you noticed how every year someone on the X Factor sings 'Purple Rain'. I think my all time favourite has to be Ruth Lorrenzo, I loved her performance in case you haven't seen it or don't remember here it is.
What do you think? What are your must have colours for AW10? Who are you routing for on X factor this year?
Lots of Love

8th edition is such a radical departure from the precious editions that is not surprising that tactics have changed as well. In 7th ed there was a lot of merit to going second but now that has chnaged. With units no longer scoring if fleeing there is little reason to go last. Shooting also seems to be less important particularly those with 24" range. As units can now charge much farther fighting can happen at least one turn faster. While warmachines can do more damage they are also much more vulnerable to counter artillery fire and easily destroyed by initiative tests. There are also big changes to fleeing. If the opponents have fliers or fast units then fleeing units are very vulnerable but if there are not then fleeing unit have a greater chance than ever to not be scored. As units flee only in a straight line they often can be moved to set up longer fleeing than ever. In combat there are two big changes. First units can charge so fair that flanks are much more vulnerable. Also units can choose to reform rather than pursue and this makes it much harder to redirect units. These are only a few of the changes which make 8th very differnent but the more you try it the better I think you will find it.

THAT looks painful.
UFC fighter Joe Proctor was not the favourite in his bout against Justin Salas in Atlantic City today. But he managed to come out on top, even after developing a massive haematoma on the side of his face.
The lump of clotted blood grew when Salas landed an effective punch near Proctor's left ear.
@JoeProctor hematoma after his win tonight #UFCFightNight pic.twitter.com/IoiM2YHEpZ— Joe Eaton (@jceatonvt) July 17, 2014
The rather noticeable injury threatened to stop the fight, but after examining Proctor at the end of the first round, the official physician allowed him to carry on.
Proctor went on to win the fight in the second round, unleashing a hail of strikes which forced the referee to intervene.
"Everybody knows I like to finish with my right hand, but I was able to finish with my let hook," Proctor said afterwards.
"I've been working and working on my boxing and looking for the knockout, and it finally came. I'm so happy."
Wow. What a fight. Congrats @JoeProctor and your new growing Siamese twin. Year off did you wonders. #UFCFightNight pic.twitter.com/cajlQ5OUUY— ChristopheRrrr (@CarlosDanger420) July 17, 2014
A few UFC fans failed to take Proctor's haematoma seriously, instead poking fun at it on Twitter.

Winter 2011 Fancy Food Show Recap
The Winter 2011 Fancy Food show in San Francisco wrapped up on Tuesday afternoon; while the overall number of beverage companies was relatively light for the second year in a row, (approximately 50) many of the usual suspects were present – coconut waters, enhanced waters, sparkling juices and teas. Exhibitors said they were impressed by both the caliber of the attendees and the overall density of general foot traffic, particularly on Sunday and Monday. On both days, show aisles were completely filled with attendees ranging from large influential retailers and wholesalers to smaller, "high-end" gourmet grocers and buyers. At times, in fact, it was nearly impossible to pass between booths due to the high volume of people. The atmosphere was upbeat and lively compared to the past couple of shows, which had been somber due to economy uncertainty. Companies expressed good riddance to 2010 while hoping and praying that 2011 will be a strong year for the industry. Still, innovation gave way to repackaging and tweaking of flavors — beverage companies, at least, continue to focus on their core lines and remain lean. However, there were some novel and interesting product launches across the board. Below is a sampling of what we saw. Note that BevNET's coverage of Fancy Foods West was sponsored by Ex Drinks www.exdrinks.com.
12 Noon to Midnight is a sparkling line of organic white, green and black teas using champagne carbonation techniques in 750ml frosted glass bottles available in Original and Rouge.
blk Water is a new entry to the enhanced water category. The product is an infusion of Canadian Spring water and Fulvic acid, an antioxidant purported to fight and eliminate free radicals.
Blue Monkey Coconut Collection is a new line of all-natural not-from concentrate coconut water products with coconuts sourced from Thailand. Available in RTD and powder formats, the flavors include 100 percent coconut water with and without pulp, coconut/guava, coconut/passion fruit, coconut pomegranate/acai, coconut/mango, coconut green tea, and coconut oolong tea.
Bottle Green Drinks Company from Canada launched a new line of fruit juice sodas.
Brands of Britain added 500 ml glass bottles to the Fever Tree mixers line for tonic water, ginger beer, club soda and ginger ale.
Bulzai energy drink is a new energy drink imported from Dubai with amino acids and essential vitamins in an 8 oz. can.
Epicurean Beverages launched Val de France, a sparkling fruit juice line available in Apple, Peach, Pear, Pomegranate and Raspberry.
Fizzy Lizzy launched Tangerine Passionfruit.
GT Beverage added a Grape flavor to its Sportastic line. The company announced that it is making a major push to get the brand into schools nationwide.
GuS made some subtle packaging tweaks to its labels.
Harney and Sons is distributing the Taste Nirvana Coconut water line and revamped the glass bottle packaging with newly designed labels.
HINT previewed a new, lightly carbonated line, HINT FIZZ. Like HINT, the brand is unsweetened, zero calorie, with zero added sugar. Initially available in Blackberry and Watermelon in 12 oz. glass bottles, more flavors are in the pipeline.
Honest Tea introduced CocoaNova. Over five years on the research and development side, CocoaNova is a departure from tea entirely. The beverage is made from brewed cacao beans and contains 50 mg of theobromine, intended to provide the drinker a boost. Each 10.1 oz. bottle is 50 calories and is certified organic, fair trade, dairy and gluten free. Flavors are Mint, Mocha, and Cherry. Honest Tea also launched Classic Green tea in a glass bottle.
Hot Lips Soda will be adding a Pinot Noir flavor later this year.
ICIO Water has new flavors for 2011 in a 12 oz. flask-like bottle – Blood Orange Tarragon, Peach Ginger, Lychee Watermelon, and Black Currant Blueberry
Lorina introduced a new look for its Premium CSD offerings, including new labels, new packaging in 14.2 oz. plastic bottles, and new flavors.
Numi Tea has redesigned its RTD product labels and reduced their sugar levels by 40 percent.
Powell & Mahoney's line of all natural vintage cocktail mixers welcomed the addition of Pomegranate, Peach Bellini and Simple Syrup to the company's existing 750 ml glass bottle portfolio.
Santasti redesigned its packaging with new labels and has new glass bottles.
Steaz will be launching zero-calorie, stevia-sweetened green teas in February to complement its existing 16 oz. canned line. Flavors include Raspberry, Citrus, Peach Mango and Half and Half.
Teas' Tea from Ito En has undergone a full package redesign including a new 16.9 PET 1 BPA-free bottle. The company also launched Teas' Tea Lightly Sweetened with cane sugar in three low-cal flavors (Mango Oolong, Blueberry Green, Lemon Black) and Teas' Tea Classic sweetened with cane sugar (Country Peach Black Tea and Crispy Apple Black Tea).
Vignette Wine Country Soda added California Brut in a 750 ml bottle. The product, made with a blend of Muscat and Chardonnay grape juices, will launch in April or May.
Vinnedge Distributing launched French Arancino Organic Blood Orange Soda and Artisanale Limonade in 1 L glass bottles.
X-Life Energy Drink is from the Czech Republic and is available in Original, Bitter Lemon and Green Tea in 8 oz. cans and in a 2 oz. energy shot.

Welcome to s11n.net!s11n (an abbreviation for serialization) is an Open Source project focused on the generic serialization of objects (i.e., object persistence) in the C++ programming language (and now C, too!). If you're not a C++ programmer then this site will have nothing terribly interesting for you. If you are, however, then come in and find out how to save your data...
The project's flagship library, appropriately named libs11n, can easily serialize all manner of PODs (Plain Old Data types), most STL containers, and user-defined Serializable types. By taking advantage of relatively new, advanced C++ techniques s11n turns this formerly-difficult task into child's play. It supports literally hundreds of millions of combinations of standard containers out of the box. libs11n is 100% data-format agnostic, and currently includes support for many formats, including 3 XML flavours. (As far as i am aware, this exceeds support provided by any other serialization framework, regardless of the implementation language!)
A short history of this project, and an overview of its goals, can be found here. A more "dramatic" description can be found on the s11n's Dream page.
We will now refer the reader to the abundant documentation available via these pages:
Development statuslibs11n is a mature product, ready for production use. It has been in development since 2003 and has been very stable since 2004.
My many, many thanks to those of you who have continued to feed back on these libraries! Your feedback has led to massive improvements in usability and functionality.

s11n-style JSON
Work has started on a C++ JSON library which includes a stripped-down version of libs11n to handle the de/serialization of C++ native types to/from the world of JSON. It's still quite new, but the basics are in place and seem to work quite well. See the nosjob home page for details and source code.

s11n Gentoo Linux Ebuild Files
Yuchen Xie contributed an ebuild file for libs11n, so it can be built on Gentoo Linux systems using its native packaging tool. Starting with version 1.2.10, ebuild files are available on the downloads page.
Sat Mar 20 13:00:00 CEST 2010
libs11n 1.2.10 released
s11n 1.2.10 was finally released today, after sitting around on my hard drive for many months. This release has no notable API changes or bug fixes, but includes patches from Damien Hocking which allow s11n to be built as a DLL on Windows platforms. Thanks also go to Ryan Fogerty for reminding me that a portability fix for gcc 4.4 needed to be released. Version 1.2.9 was never released, but i used the number in another project which embedded s11n, so that number is being skipped.
Tue Jan 28 15:30:00 CEST 2009
s11n working as a DLL on Windows
Damien Hocking has done the impossible - he got libs11n working as a DLL on Windows! Long-time users of s11n will probably remember that s11n's classloader model does not play well with Windows because of the weird (and largely unrealistic) symbol export rules for DLLs on those platforms. Damien has gotten it working, however, and this is exciting news for the project. Once we get his changes integrated into the main tree we'll make a release.
Sun Nov 16 12:30:00 CEST 2008
c11n is beta
c11n (basically "s11n for C") is now at a point where it's usable. i've moved it over to a new build environment, stuffed it in the s11n SVN tree, and will post a downloadable tarball for it in the next few days. If there are any C coders still out there, i would love to get any feedback on the API. The API looks/works more or less how i want it to look/work, but there is some work to be done on simplifying the creation of new marshallers - that currently requires quite a bit of code (80% of it can be generated by a shell script, however).
It might be interesting to know: regardless of whether or not c11n ever becomes as useful as s11n, the work on c11n has revealed several places for improvements in future s11n work. For example, the stream model may be ported over to s11n 1.4 or 2.x, and the i/o handlers will almost certainly be ported over as well because the c11n implementations don't require an ancient version of flex (most of the s11n implementations do). There's also some work to be done on making a new s11n_node type which is (almost) as lightweight as its C counterpart.

Perspective:Diplomacy king of Bush administration
The six-party negotiations on North Korea are an example of the second. North Korea went nuclear a long time ago. Our time to act was during the Bush 41 and Clinton administrations. Nothing was done. And nothing can be done now. Once a country has gone nuclear, there is no return. The nukes themselves act as a deterrent against military measures. And no diplomat, however mellifluous, is going to talk a nuclear North Korea into dismantling the one thing that gives it any significance in the world.

We need a codename for the alleged impending Amazon tablet computer. Amatablet? Amablet? Tabazon? Yes. Tabazon. Tabazon is supposedly on the way later this year, according to the blog DigiTimes, which always has stories like this. Tabazon will supposedly have an LED display, allowing it to display color. What that means to the lovely low glare experience of the Kindle, I do not know. Tabazon will supposedly run on an Android operating system. In a way, this is catch up to what Barnes & Noble has already done with the Nook Color, which is more or less a very basic tablet computer. But we'll see if Tabazon is a real tablet computer or a souped up book reader.
Rumor: Amazon tablet arriving later this year

Billerud merger gets EU approval
Swedish investment company Kinnevik owns rival paper company Korsnäs and promised to sell a paper machine at a production unit in Gävle to address competition concerns.
The Commission said the deal had raised competition concerns as it would have combined the two leading suppliers of white sack kraft paper and the first and third suppliers of white MF/UG kraft paper in the European Economic Area (EEA), resulting in very high market shares.
The deal was assessed on a number of markets where the merging parties' activities overlap, in kraft paper, corrugated case materials and liquid packaging board.
Billerud manufactures kraft and sack paper, liquid board and cup stock for the dairy, beverage and fresh food industries and the deal is expected to bring an annual turnover exceeding SEK 20bn (€2.3bn).

"I Promise I Will Never Hurt You"
"I Promise I Will Never Hurt You"
"I promise I will never hurt you". This is what my ExN said to me in the beginining of the relationship. At the time, I even told him you can't promise me something like that, because there are times when you may hurt someone even if it is not intentional and he did not get it.
Mine did something similar
Mine promised, after the first couple times he broke up with me (OMG, reading that now I don't know why I didn't run, and instead begged him back) that he would never break up with me again.
After the third breakup I told him I'd never take him back again. Yeah...
After the fourth breakup and getting back together, he PROMISED me he would never just dump me again out of the blue, like all the other times, unless we thoroughly discussed the issues and what he was upset about (he tended to get "hurt" easily, stew, and then lower the boom unexpectedly over something stupid) and actually try to work through things, and only if we couldn't work things out by trying, then we would mutually breakup.
This last time, things seemed ok. He was "hurt" over something I did, but we had a couple discussions, I thought everything was fine, he was being very lovey again, and then that night he broke up with me.
Oh, and then he had the audacity to say in a letter to me last week that he's always been brutally honest in his relationships and with people in general. LIAR! In fact, his email was all about how he'd been able to forgive what people had done to him, and how guys before him always messed up girls he got together with, and how it wasn't fair to him because he was such a good guy.
Excuse me, I have to go stifle my puke reflex now.
If they're talking...they're probably lying...
Some of the lies my N told me after resurfacing in my life after 25 years...
"I would never hurt you"
"I will always be there for you"
"I loved you more than anyone"
"You were different than all the others"
"You are so fascinating"
"your husband doesn't appreciate you"
"you are just a trophy to him"
"I cried while watching the Notebook, I sobbed, it will forever be our movie"
I could go on and on, lol. My N lied so much it would be much shorter to write about when he didn't lie....
And yet
He probably adamantly claimed he never lied, right?
He did. I remember when I called him a liar, and he kept repeating "oh Im a liar, "oh Im a liar" in a tone that actually made me feel guilty for calling him that. He was very good in making me doubt myself, very manipulative.
my n told me "i cant promise
my n told me "i cant promise you what will happen but i will never lie and always be honest with you about my feelings". it was everything i wanted to hear to take him back. why did we break up...cheating and lying! As Barbara used to say, if their lips are moving, they are lying!
Its all lies
See if they dont have any feelings then any talk about their feelings is a lie , weather its i love you or i hate you , emotinaly they are flatline .Mine said "i would never hurt you " and yet he ended up hurting me more than anyone i have ever known ... funy that ..Mine had the gall to say to me on friday night "i have honered all my promises to you " i just said "oh shut up "

I WAS very interested in The Scotsman archive piece "Self-Government: Maxton and Nationalists: 1 February, 1943". The words of James Maxton MP are as pertinent and inspiring today as they were 70 years ago.
My great-aunt, Christina Moody, née Brown, was a Labour councillor for Calton ward in Glasgow's east end, and a close friend of Mr Maxton. Her sudden death in 1931, a few days after attending a meeting at the City Chambers, was reported by The Scotsman, and Mr Maxton gave the oration at her funeral.
My great-aunt was greatly loved in her ward for the help and support she unstintingly gave to those in need, and my father told me the people of Calton and district turned out in force to pay their respects, with men, cap in hand, weeping, as the funeral cortège passed through the streets of the east end. In due course, a by-election was held in Calton ward.
In the late 1960s, another council by-election took place in Calton and, on turning up to campaign, I found that the terrible housing conditions which my great-aunt had hated and fought against were still in existence almost 40 years after her death. In his letter (1 February), George Leslie is spot on when he writes: "Labour in Scotland was founded on the principle of self-government but when it got its greedy hands on the possibility of power at Westminster its principles soon disappeared."
Labour in Scotland let down James Maxton, they let down Christina Moody, but worst of all, they let down the trust of the people who had wholeheartedly believed in them, and needed them the most.

Can hype and expectations kills a dining experience or create a disapointing meal? I ask this question in the general sense and as well as specific situations and circumstances.
For myself, I've found that if I hear too much buzz or hype, my expectations rise...and I can be dissapointed from what is otherwise a fine, fine meal. Example: went to a 4-star place considered one of the best in country. It was a great food, yet I found myself underwelmed because of how friends (who had been) gushed and gushed. Even as the food was great, it took me 2 other visits to finally enjoy the full experience. The thing is, how do you ignore otherwise good friends or opinions you trust. Guess it goes to show that even if the food is great, if your head isn't there...could be a disapointment.


text: When I was in LA a few years ago, I bought some Cook & Ladder products at the Santa Monica farmer's market (blood orange marmalade, blueberry pinot noir jam). Does anyone know if this company still exists? They used to be located in the Santa Ynez area, I think. Internet searches turned up information on them from a few years ago, but their website doesn't work and I can't find anything current.

Topographic map of routes on Square Top Mountain. In red is the primary Gunsight Pass-East Ridge Route which is 7 miles long roundtrip and traverses a class 3 ridge. The blue route is 1.3 mile (roundtrip) addition of Henry Mountain. In yellow is the easy access grass gulley that bypasses the East Ridge and can be used on either ascent or descent. The grass gulley keeps the route at class 2 and provides a half mile long shortcut.
