oh the joys of being invaded
What are your latest pregnancy symptoms?
Last night, I ate a bowl of cereal and involuntarily threw it back up in my mouth.
I bought TUMS and MYLANTA that I carry around with me at all times.
I broke out my underwear for this lovely occasion - it's large, it's cotton and it's the only thing that now covers my ever-expanding butt.
anyone else want to join my pity party???
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Oh I broke out the granny panties because my rear end is expanding and my binkini's just don't cut it anymore.
I'm still getting sick in the morning and threw up this morning right after I got out of the shower.
And I've had the worst heartburn of my life. I thought I was going to have to go to the hospital it hurt so bad.
I'm having my own little pity party so I'll join yours, but I know in approx 18 weeks it will all be worth it!!
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Id love to be able to cough or sneeze without having to squeeze my legs together real tight. Going through liners and underware like crazy. Didnt have this last time!! The always having no energy thing is killing me too
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Same here on the energy, I'm always exhausted, unless it's bedtime then I magically wake up just enough to not be able to sleep forever. I'm tired of the emotional mess too oh man that sucks. Not having the undie issue yet, but I feel it coming, and I'm really tired of the anxiety. How many more weeks?!
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
I got a prescription for the heartburn, it's just every once in a while right now but I know it gets worse later, on, always has for me.
My RLS is freaking annoying but I'm used to that.
The one that's new and annoying right now is back pain. I know I've had back pain while pregnant before but not daily. My lower back always hurts almost and at least once a week is gets worse and migrates up to my mid/upper back. My whole pelvic area hurts too, feels like baby is 15lbs, not 1lb sitting down on me.
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Oh I totally forgot my back pain. I get my heating pad out at night and put it on my back while I watch TV. Oh the joys of pregnancy!!
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
I get dizzy every where. Can't go to the store alone because every single time I feel like fainting at the register. Doesn't matter how long or short the trip was standing there while our stuff gets rung up just makes me feel faint.
I'm so congested that I keep getting headaches from it.
I'm even more near sited than normal.
Beef, all the beef gives me heart burn. I also crave all the beef.
My hips hurt more than normal and more easily than normal. I keep getting this one muscle or tendon right near my groin that feels like someone has stabbed flamy, rusty knives into it.
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
lol, thanks ladies. misery loves company :-)
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
My incision area from my csection is sore again. Feels about like it did 3 weeks after, which is comparable to feeling like I did too many crunches. I get shooting pains starting at my ham strings and shooting up to my cervix. For some reason, rolling over in bed makes that pain way worse. Sometimes I think my hips are just gonna drop right out of my pelvis and they pop all weird, especially after a busy day.
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Ill join the pity party!
I have the worst acne I've ever had in my life- luckily it's not my face, but my back, chest and neck are awful! I'm afraid it's going to scar!
I have to pee all the time. And then I pee, and 10 minutes later have to pee again.
Since I'm home on modified bed rest, I have plenty of time on my hands to be paranoid about every ache/pain/discomfort I have and google it- then of course think the worst.
I've been so emotional lately. I'm not one to cry over things, but the last few days I'll just bawl my eyes out. Yesterday morning I told DH I've been craving Pizza Hut stuffed crust pizza. I didn't ask him to get it for dinner, but he instead came home with a frozen pizza. I cried lol. I didn't tell DH why of course, but I thought to myself why couldn't he have just gotten the pizza I really wanted if he was going to do pizza for dinner anyways? Lol so silly, I know! Plus I was worrying about anything and everything yesterday, so the pizza put me over the edge.
I miss being able to lay on my back. I went to the dentist for a cleaning today and had to lay on my left side a few times until I felt better because I almost passed out!
I miss being able to eat and not check to make sure it's pasteurized etc. I miss deli meat (I don't want to heat it up, I want it cold!) I miss diet Pepsi. I could go for a glass of wine.
But I know it will all be worth it! Just a few more months until I meet my girls:)
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
My skin is SO gross. That's been so hard. I used to have strangers ask me what foundation I wore while bare faced. Now I'm 13 again. Ugh.
Also...my feet are KILLING ME. I woke up feeling like I ran miles. My hips and back hurt. My first trimester exhaustion is back. I have zero energy to do anything...be social, clean my house...
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
I am still suffering from the lightening cervix. And sciatica on the left. I eat tums like candy. I can't wait for Feb 4th!!!
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
I'd have to say the worst part for me is my emotions and anxiety. I'm terrible. And I got so much worse on bedrest. I was sooo depressed and angry all the time. I'm feeling a little better this week, but honestly, I am being a nutcase. And I know it, but can't help it, which is the worst. I've been crying at least once a day for the last 3 or 4 weeks, for things that really are silly, but then i jack them up in my head to be huge and horrible.
I just want to feel sane again!! And not cry all the time.
And to make it worse, I'm supposed to start stepping down my meds to get ready for the third trimester, but I know when I do, i will actually seriously be insane with the anxiety and depression. I don't know how anyone is going to live with me, or how I'm going to get work done. So that's causing me to be MORE anxious!
If I could get rid of that, I'd be doing ok. :)
I have the minor hip and lower back pain, but now that my appendix is gone, the nausea is gone, and i don't have pains in my side anymore (i thought it was round ligament stretching...). So I just really really need to work on this mental stuff.
Re: oh the joys of being invaded
Mine biggest complaint is exhaustion. I can sleep all day long and then after an hour or two of being up I feel like I have ran a marathon! My cravings come and go, its more like a sudden urge to eat this or that. My belly is now getting bigger and more uncomfortable with trying to lean over and tie my shoes, or shave my legs. But all in all I can't complain to much. Oh and I am moodier and more teary eyes these days.

Steaming walnut to increase yield kills the vibrant natural colors prized in un-steamed walnut.
Put The Life Back in Steamed Walnut
Walnut (Juglans nigra in the family Juglandaceae) is perhaps our most popular domestic exotic hardwood. The heartwood of walnut is rich brown with overtones of red, purple and cordovan. In my view there are no other domestic hardwoods, and very few exotic species, that offer the woodworker such a wide range of colors, both bold and subtle.
But, in order to maximize yield from walnut logs most commercial mills steam walnut lumber immediately after milling the logs into lumber. There are basically two methods of steaming; pressure steaming and steaming at atmospheric pressure. The details are not all that important for our purposes. In both methods un-stickered freshly milled lumber is subjected to "wet" steam (steam at 100% relative humidity) in a tightly sealed structure. Depending on the process, temperatures will range from190º to 230º and steam will be inserted into the chamber from a few hours to a a few days. What actually takes place within the walnut is subject to debate. Some point to "bleeding" of the extractives in the heartwood into the sapwood while others hold that the color change is the result of a chemical transformation involving sugars and starches in the wood. Whatever the cause, the result of the steam is the elimination of the cream color sapwood found in air-dried or un-steamed walnut thus increasing the volume of marketable lumber from each log (walnut grading rules treat sapwood as a "defect"). However, the increase in marketable yield produced by coloring the sapwood is not without cost. Steaming kills much of the desirable natural color of the walnut heartwood, eliminating the subtle color variations and turning everything, both heartwood and sapwood, to a dull monochromatic gray/brown. The striking color difference between un-steamed and steamed walnut is illustrated in the following photos. Please note that both samples were photographed at the same setting with the same lighting and the same camera. No finish of any kind has been applied to either sample. Both samples were run through the same helical head planer and neither sample was sanded ofter planing. What you see in these images is the direct result of steaming with only the labels added for clarity.
will not need spray equipment and no dangerous finishes are involved. Before we get into the specifics, however, let's first examine the process that we employ using a story-board. We highly recommend the story-board technique whenever considering a new finish schedule. Its proper use will avoid the frustration and disappointment that comes with jumping into an untried finish without first exploring the process.
In the following photo you see the story-board we created in the process of developing this finish schedule. The board was selected to illustrate the problem we are attempting to solve; creating the look of un-steamed walnut on a steamed walnut board that contains both heartwood and sapwood.
Unsteamed Walnut
Steamed Walnut
It is difficult to imagine that anyone looking at these photos would find the steamed walnut image on the right more desirable than the un-steamed image on the left. It is as thought we are examining two completely different species of wood. In the process of steaming we have taken one of the most vibrant, richly colored and unique species of lumber in the whole of creation and managed, for the sake of increased yield, to convert it into a bland, flat, nearly monochromatic material that must be artificially colored in order to even approach its former brilliance.
Somehow the whole idea of paying top dollar for a premium hardwood and then having to apply color to make it look the way it came naturally from the tree seems fundamentally wrong. Nonetheless, in the rest of this article we will do just that. We will develop a method of restoring the color of steamed walnut to its former unsteamed glory. Best of all, the schedule we propose will restore the color of the walnut without the application of a single grain of opaque pigment. By avoiding the application of pigment stains and relying instead on water-soluble dyes and the natural dye found in garnet shellac we will retain the beautiful grain pattern of the walnut without masking any of its grain structure beneath an opaque film. The process is simple; it can be accomplished without special tools in any hobbyist garage or basement shop. You will not need spray equipment and no dangerous finishes are involved. Before we get into the specifics, however, let's first examine the process that we employ using a story-board. We highly recommend the story-board technique whenever considering a new finish schedule. Its proper use will avoid the frustration and disappointment that comes with jumping into an untried finish without first exploring the process.
This story-board is 48" long and 4" wide. Since we knew that there would be just three steps in this finish schedule we divided the board into four sections, each 12" long. We created the divisions by making shallow cuts in the board at 12" intervals. The first section is left unfinished to give us a reference to the starting point. Each subsequent step is applied to all of the remaining sections of the board until the entire finish has been applied. To obtain the following photos of each step in the process we simply took photos of each step and then cropped each image to fit together at the saw cuts separating each step in the process.
Now, let's see how our schedule compares to a simple clear coat finish of varnish applied to un-steamed walnut sample. Again we selected Pratt & Lambert #38 and applied it to a walnut board that has not been steamed. The un-steamed walnut finished with P&L #38 is on the left and the last panel in our finish schedule (without the labels) is on the right. The transformation was easy to achieve and was done without the application of pigment stain. Note that the band of sapwood along the bottom edge of the steamed sample (photo on right) has been seamlessly blended into the heartwood above.

Pigs and spiders, spiders and pigs: MMO devs do love both equally. They're convenient fodder for heroes to use as training on their way up to slaying dragons, as nobody likes spiders and everyone likes ham and bacon. And while they almost never stand a chance against the never-ending player onslaught, what would happen if spider fought pig in-game? Who would emerge triumphant and who would slink back to its trough/web in shame?
Take some time to weigh the pros and cons of each contestant, and let us know which you think would win in a one-on-one scuffle! (And for those of you out there itching to make a spider-pig reference in the comments, I'm preempting you. Booyah.)

On 6 April 2014 a number of important changes to employment law come into force. Here we explain what those changes are and what they mean for you in practice.
Increase in rates and tribunal award limits
This annual event has moved from February to April and, as a result of now being index-linked, a week's gross pay for calculating a redundancy payment or the basic award for unfair dismissal purposes is now capped at the memorable figure of £464. The maximum compensatory award for unfair dismissal has also increased to £76,974 (or one year's gross pay if less) and the prescribed weekly rates for maternity, paternity and adoption leave have increased to £138.18.
ACAS early conciliation
Before anyone can issue a claim to an employment tribunal, they will have to go through a period of early conciliation (EC) via ACAS. This process is being introduced with the explicit intention of reducing the number of tribunal claims and will be optional until 6 May but compulsory after that.
In almost all cases this will mean a potential claimant must send an EC form to ACAS, who will then take brief details of the claim from them. ACAS will then contact the potential respondent and try to broker a settlement. Unless either party doesn't want to take part, the EC period will normally last for a calendar month or a further two weeks if settlement looks likely. As now, ACAS will deal with representatives if they are appointed. If no settlement is reached by the end of the EC period or ACAS can't contact either party, they will issue an EC certificate containing a unique reference number. A claimant must have that reference number to issue a claim to an employment tribunal.
This process will have a knock-on effect on limitation dates and time will stop running from the date the EC form is received by ACAS until it issues the EC certificate. In practice, this extension of time is itself likely to lead to litigation in the same way that the old statutory procedures did – not quite what the Government had in mind!
So what does this mean for employers? Well, if you have any prospective tribunal claims you can expect to hear from ACAS before an ET1 arrives in your in-tray. This is likely to be attractive to potential claimants now they have to pay fees but possibly less so for employers. However, as you don't have to engage in the process, if you would rather wait and see if the issue fee means no claim is ever submitted or simply defend the claim, then you are free to do just that. The process does give employers the opportunity to settle a low value claim at a very early stage if that is commercially sensible for them. Some speculate that EC may have the unintended consequence of encouraging claimants to proceed with their claims. We will have to wait and see.
Financial penalties for employers who lose tribunal claims
This is another example of a tribunal being able to punish a losing respondent rather than simply compensating a victorious claimant (the money going to the Secretary of State rather than the claimant) and one which sits a little uncomfortably with the government's red tape challenge.
A tribunal will have the option of imposing a financial penalty on an employer which loses a tribunal claim only if there is an "aggravating feature". The penalty must be between £100 and £5,000 and, subject to those limits, will be 50% of any financial award made to the claimant. Unfortunately, it is not completely clear what would amount to an "aggravating feature" as the guidance issued to date leaves it up to individual tribunals to consider any factors they consider relevant. One crumb of comfort can be taken from indications that genuine mistakes will not be penalised.
This potential penalty is another reason to ensure that you have sensible policies in place for dealing with common workplace issues and that managers are well trained in dealing with them. In some cases, it may also be another incentive to settle.
Changes to SSP
In the longer term the government is planning to introduce a form of state funded occupational health service. This service will be funded by costs savings arising from abolishing the Percentage Threshold Scheme (which gives employers with higher than average SSP liabilities a rebate against their National Insurance bill) which is due to take effect in April. The rules about SSP record-keeping will be relaxed but not abolished at the same time.
Employers whose SSP bill is higher than 13% of their gross National Insurance bill will lose their rebate on the excess over 13% from April. The upside, in the form of the free occupational health service, is not expected until 2015 at the earliest.
Bye bye discrimination questionnaires
Finally, April will also spell the end for discrimination questionnaires although it was opposed by over 80% of respondents to the consultation. This means the end of the formal process of employees being able to put written questions to their employers and a tribunal drawing inferences from incomplete or evasive answers. This was often a time-consuming task but could also be really helpful in clearing up misunderstandings or showing certain allegations to be unfounded.
In practice, employees or their representatives are still likely to write to employers with questions about allegations of discrimination and it would not be sensible simply to ignore such requests for information. Tribunals will typically expect employers to treat allegations of discrimination seriously and an employer who ignores legitimate and reasonable enquiries will not impress a tribunal panel so in practice this change is unlikely to have any discernible impact in most cases.

KERRY Stokes will lose his bid for permission to buy pay-TV group Consolidated Media, industry experts believe, after the competition watchdog flagged concerns about the proposal.
The media magnate will now have to decide whether to sell his ConsMedia stake to suitor News Corporation or stay on as a minority investor, analysts say.
In a statement yesterday, the competition regulator said it was concerned about the impact of Mr Stokes' proposal on the bidding process for sports rights.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission delayed its decision on Mr Stokes' proposal, calling for further submissions.
Mr Stokes has sought the watchdog's approval to make a counter bid for ConsMedia, which owns a quarter of Foxtel and half of content provider Fox Sports.
He would make the bid through his media and mining company Seven Group, which owns about 25 per cent of ConsMedia. Mr Stokes owns 67 per cent of Seven.
The ACCC said its concerns centred on "the influence Channel 7 may be able to exert over Fox Sports ... in joint bids and other commercial arrangements in relation to sports rights".
It said that if Seven owned half of Fox Sports, it would have "significant influence" over the pay-TV channel, which would potentially favour Seven over rival free-to-air networks.
James Packer, who owns half of ConsMedia, supports the $2 billion takeover offer tabled by News Corp, publisher of the Herald Sun.
Greg Fraser, a senior analyst at research house Fat Prophets, said the ACCC's statement indicated it would be difficult for the ACCC to approve a rival takeover proposal by Seven. "The only real question that remains open is what will Seven do with their holding in Consolidated Media once the ACCC knocks it back," Mr Fraser said.
Speaking before the ACCC released its statement, Argo Investments chief Jason Beddow said, "If Stokes is going to do anything with his stake or push his leverage, he'll have to play his hand".
The investment firm is a ConsMedia shareholder. News formalised its offer for ConsMedia last week. ConsMedia shareholders are due to vote on the deal at the October 31 annual meeting. with AAP

Perico posted a very impressive score of 4-under-par in his final round. Like Choi, Perico also started strong, posting 33 on the front nine, making birdies on Nos. 5, 6, and 9. He managed to scratch together a 1-under-par back nine, good enough for 8-under-par for the tournament, and a 1-shot advantage over Choi who finished in second place.
Choi entered the day tied with Devin Bling of Ridgecrest, Calif. for first place at 7-under- He played solidly on the front nine, going out with 2-under-par 34 on the heals of a fast start --making a 30-footer for birdie on No. 1 and draining another long one for birdie on No. 3.
Unfortunately for the Korean native (who resides in Irvine) a less than superb back nine would end his hopes of winning the tournament. It might have been a big ask for Choi to go 72-holes in 120 degree desert heat last week in winning the SCGA Amateur, only to follow with another 72-hole tournament in San Diego (at another brutal course) just days later. Even Tour players don't turn it around that fast.
The momentum really started to turn in Perico's direction on the 15th, when Choi three putted.
Perico took advantage of his opportunity on the 18th hole.
"I bombed one down the middle there," he said, noting that he took an extra club from 200-yards out to make sure he cleared the famous pond called Devlin's Billabong.
"I gave my chance a good look for eagle there," he continued. "And Sam had unfortunately found trouble in the sand."
The Peru native attended a golf academy in Florida and will head for University of South Florida this fall.
Japan's Nao Ohbayashi of Japan made some fireworks in the girls 15-18 division, posting a 6-under-par 66 in her final effort. Her stellar play would be more than enough to overcome a three shot deficit entering the final round earning her the championship over third round leader Yuka Saso.
Saso, who was hoping to cap off a wire-to-wire victory at Torrey Pines wasn't able to continue her torrid pace (with three straight rounds in the 60s), posting a round of 1-over 73 for a tournament total of 10-under-par. She would finish four shots short of Ohbayashi, who finished at 14-under-par for the tournament thanks to that final round effort.

Naturally, executives at PPG—which makes CR-39, Trivex and other lens materials—see the situation as an opportunity to educate consumers about lens material options. Some education would undoutedly be helpful, especially for those confused souls who think their lenses are made of sand.
But eyecare professionals, who are still the most important source of eyewear and eyecare information for consumers, should be careful not to over-educate. In our information-intensive world, it's all too easy to get overloaded with facts and details. When we buy a flat screen television, do we need to know what material the screen is made of? For most of us, it's enough to know the thing is easy to operate and has a great picture.
Of course, ECPs need to be prepared in case some tech-savvy consumers want the full 411. But too much information may kill the sale.

I graduated from Morehead State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Advertising/Public Relations. I was a photography intern under the campus photographer and loved every minute of it!
I love capturing people in their own light. I want to see you. You holding your newborn baby. A picnic with your high school sweetheart at your favorite fishing hole. The happiest day of your life, walking down the aisle to your future. A moment comes and goes and we'll never get that moment back.

Keys to Golden State Warriors' Recently Improved PlayApril 4, 2013
Keys to Golden State Warriors' Recently Improved Play
After blowing a big lead during a March 2 loss in Philadelphia, the Golden State Warriors found themselves sitting at 33-27, seventh in the Western Conference.
Their six-game separation from the .500 mark was their lowest since they were 13-7 on Dec. 8.
Over the last month, Golden State has gotten back to their winning ways. They've won 10 of their past 15 to climb 11 games above the .500 mark and back into sixth place.
Here's a look at the biggest reasons for Golden State's turnaround.
The Dorothy Effect
After the Warriors' March 2 loss in Philadelphia, they returned home for seven games. They did win the first game of the homestand, but it was an ugly 125-118 win over the Toronto Raptors.
After the game, coach Mark Jackson alluded to Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, stating that "Just because Dorothy clicks her heels and winds up at home doesn't mean that everything's going to be all right."
He's right, of course. Playing at home doesn't guarantee wins. You still have to play hard, with confidence and as a team to win in the NBA.
Being at home just makes playing this way much more doable, and the Warriors have taken advantage.
They won an acceptable games during that seven-game homestand, but they also got rested and rediscovered their defensive swagger in a 92-63 crushing of the Knicks on March 11. They carried this momentum into a three-game road trip where they won two of three games in blowout fashion, and promptly returned home for a five-game homestand.
The Warriors again took advantage of sleeping in their own beds and playing in front of the NBA's best fanbase, winning four of five and climbing to 43-32.
The Warriors are now 26-11 at home and have sold out 28 consecutive games.
There's no place like home, there's no place like home.
Andrew Bogut Coming into Form
He still isn't at 100 percent. He may not even be at 90. Considering the way he's playing, that's just fine. In fact, it may be a good thing.
Andrew Bogut spent nearly a year recovering from micro-fracture surgery in his ankle, and he still lacks the stamina or rhythm that comes with playing a full season.
Even so, the big Australian is averaging 8.6 points and 8.6 rebounds with 2.4 blocks on 52.8 percent shooting over the past seven games. He's a tough cover for opposing centers due to his extremely rare combination of size—he stands at 7'0" and weighs 245 pounds—skill and athleticism.
He can catch lobs, soar to the rim, finish in transition, run a beautiful pick-and-roll and pass the ball as well as any big in the game.
Where Bogut really makes his impact, however, is on the defensive end.
When Bogut first returned to the lineup in late January and early February, his presence hurt the team defense. The Warriors perimeter defenders became lazy, rotations were less fluid and Bogut was too out of shape to recover consistently.
After missing six more games in late February and early March, Bogut returned to transform the Warriors defense for the better.
The Warriors have allowed their opponents to score an incredible 93 points per game since Bogut's second return, and they can truly win games with their defense. Bogut is at the center of this, shutting down opposing bigs, controlling the defensive glass and blocking, changing or contesting every shot at the rim.
Stephen Curry's Ascension
To be fair, Stephen Curry's ascension from stardom to superstardom began while the Warriors were losing. In fact, it was a career-best 38-point performance during a Feb. 26 loss in Indiana that saw Curry take his game to a new level, and he followed that performance with his historic 54-point night at Madison Square Garden.
Curry averaged 36.8 points during what became a four-game losing streak, and several people began to question the relevancy of a hot-shooting Curry. After all, winning is the goal.
Well, Curry had something to say about that. After deferring frequently during the Warriors seven-game homestand—he averaged a relatively low 20.6 points while dishing out a relatively high 7.6 assists—Curry decided to raise the bar further than ever before.
He's averaged 28.4 points per game over the past eight, doing so while shooting 49.7 percent from the field and 48.5 percent from deep. That doesn't even begin to tell the story, however.
When a player shoots that well from three-point range, the reason is almost always that they are selective, only pulling up for three when they catch the ball in rhythm and are wide open, resulting in about two or three times a night.
Curry has shot 9.7 three-pointers per game over those past eight games. Meaning he's made 4.7 threes a night.
Sure, Curry's also gone for 7.6 assists, 5.0 rebounds and 1.6 steals during this stretch. I guess that's pretty impressive.
But when a guy can literally take over a game and will his team to victory from behind the three-point line, something is happening that the NBA has never seen before.
There's no way to stop a guy with disgusting handles along with great passing and driving ability from creating his own open looks at a three, especially when he has no qualms about pulling up from 27 feet away.
There's no way to double-team a guy off the ball, but an off-ball double team would be necessary to stop Curry—one of the most crafty, deceptive, relentless cutters in the game—from springing free, catching a Jarrett Jack pass while he turns and drains.
There's no way to stop Stephen Curry from shooting and draining threes, which means that if he's on, the Warriors might just win the game.
That's what superstars do.

"No word on Sun Studio for C.."
Other sources quote Sun Studio as staying for sure, which makes sense as it is vital for the OpenSolaris project.
Sun Microsystems is finally giving up building its own Java integrated tools suites after a long and painful slog. Development of Sun Java Studio Creator, launched amid much hype three years ago as the new force in visual-drag-and-drop, interface development, and the stately Studio Enterprise are to be discontinued, the …
Other sources quote Sun Studio as staying for sure, which makes sense as it is vital for the OpenSolaris project.
What will it be called in '08?
No, really sir, it's the same "cc", just a completely different name.
Sun ONE studio
Java studio creator
Sun Studio Compilers (C, C++ and Fortran) are well and fine and reports of its death are greatly exaggerated.
In fact, adoption of these Compilers has improved considerably by some metrics.
I think this particular discussion is about IDEs. Sun Studio IDE is based on Netbeans CDP (aka, C/C++ Developers Pack). This pack is rolled into the "base platform" which makes it more language-neutral (ie. not just Java. Netbeans also supports JRuby/Ruby on Rails and dynamic scripting, etc).
Dont mix up compilers with this IDE story.
PS. Its not the story that creates this confusion; just the comments. Hence the clarification

Not much that I can say about Friday. I got to see several of my favorite people, including my two most favorite people in the world. There was no drama, and I managed to keep my sadness in-check pretty well.
It fucking rained the entire night, so that sucked. But other than that it was a good night. Especially since that one crazy girl left as soon as she saw me.

ATLANTA -- MARTA officials have been saying trains are the best option to get into and out of the city. Now, they're facing a new problem – parking lots filling up by morning commuters.
With MARTA being a highly promoted commuting option since the fiery bridge collapse last week, more people have been riding trains to get around the city.
On Tuesday morning, the Doraville and North Springs lots were full before 8:00 am. Sandy Springs had just over 100 spots left, while Dunwoody had two decks available.
FULL COVERAGE | I-85 Collapse
But Monday morning, commuters noticed parking lots at train stations quickly fill up -- something some of them said they've never seen.
"This is a first. Not even on a Falcons game is it this full," Michael Hepburn said.
Highway signs warned commuters that the North Springs station parking lots were full. Some drivers were not shocked.
A MARTA spokesperson said lots were filling up by morning commuters looking for an easy way to get to work. They're now encouraging motorists to car pool.
An Uber driver said that the MARTA option is taking away some of her business.
"It's to be expected with the bridge. And it makes sense why I haven't gotten any calls today," Claudia Pop, an Uber driver, said.
She said that she usually gets five calls an hour. But with people taking the train, her revenue has drastically decreased over the last few days since the Interstate 85 collapse.
"Usually within five hours [I make] over a $100 and now, I've made like $30," she said.
Despite several lots filling up, people tell said it's still worth the hassle because of all the traffic congestion on the main roads and interstates.

PROVO — BYU freshman guard T.J. Haws has been lobbing passes to sophomore forward Eric Mika to dunk for quite some time.
For Cougar fans, it's a play that never gets old.
In last Saturday's 91-62 thrashing of Pacific, Haws and Mika executed back-to-back alley-oops early in the second half that prompted thunderous roars from the crowd of 13,677 at the Marriott Center. On one of the dunks, Mika slammed it with his left hand.
Haws and Mika have been perfecting the alley-oop for years, including during their time together at Lone Peak High.
"I think it's nice to have a big guy that runs the floor," Haws said. "Eric, those first two steps that he takes, if you watch it on film, he outruns pretty much everyone. To have him run the floor like that, we try to work on it and we've played with each other for a long time. So that helps."
GETTING DEFENSIVE: BYU held Pacific's leading scorer Ray Bowles, who entered the game averaging 14.1 points per game, to zero points on 0-for-6 shooting from the field.
And Pacific's second-leading scorer, T.J. Wallace, who was averaging 13.4 points, was 2-for-5 from the floor for six points.
As a team, the Cougars limited the Tigers to 34.3 percent field-goal shooting and 4-for-21 from 3-point territory.
BYU AND THE RPI: As of Monday's Ratings Percentage Index, BYU ranks No. 101, which is No. 3 among West Coast Conference teams. Gonzaga checks in at No. 14 and Saint Mary's is No. 20.
The Cougars' opponents this week, San Francisco and San Diego, are ranked No. 159 and No. 187, respectively.
Here's a look at some of BYU's non-conference opponents in the latest RPI — USC (No. 32), Illinois (43), Colorado (73), Valparaiso (80), Princeton (116), Utah State (181), Weber State (183), Utah Valley (197), Saint Louis (262) and Coppin State (337).
BRYANT OFF THE BENCH: Sophomore guard Elijah Bryant made quite a return last week after sitting out since late November due to injury.
Bryant scored 11 points in 19 minutes at Saint Mary's, then poured in 17 points in 20 minutes against Pacific.
For now, Bryant's role has been as a reserve, but he said he doesn't mind coming off the bench.
"Whatever the coach wants me to play, whatever is needed to get the win," he said.1 comment on this story
Bryant poured in a career-high 32 points as a freshman at Elon before he transferred to BYU. His 17 points last Saturday was his highest point production since joining the Cougars.
WINNING AT HOME: BYU improved to 9-1 this season at home with its victory over Pacific. Haws emphasized the importance of winning at the Marriott Center.
"Our home court is super important. Credit to our fans. To play here in the Marriott Center is super special to us," Haws said. "To have our fans to show out every night like they do, the energy we feel in this place and how loud it gets, it's so fun to play in here. It's important that we play our best at home and protect Provo."
