The Good Feels of Audiobooks
The Narrative Audio Experience
I have found audio books to be a beautiful way in which to be able to go about tasks that require very little conscious thought and gift yourself the abundance that audible narratives can offer you to enhance and level up your life experience.
Whether you are preparing a meal, puttering around the house, walking, running, or simply enjoying rest and relaxation, the good feels of audio books offer wealth for you in abundance.
If reading proves to be an activity that was not inherently cultivated in your habits, then audio books can also prove to catch you up on the infinite amount of knowledge and resources available to your human experience.
As a visual and verbal storyteller, when the previsualization and thought process is completed in terms of the creative work the time invested in cleaning up images or branding require very little thought process and this is the time that has proved ideal for me to absorb a variety of audio books.
When I make meals, have a shower and get ready for my day, or even when doing the household upkeep of chores – absorbing knowledge and information or listening to a dynamic piece of fiction yields a good and expansive vibe.
Whatever Your Daily Ride Vibe, Audiobooks Are A Level Up In Terms Of Your Neural Landscape Development.
AudioBooks Can Offer You Life Changing Concepts & Ideas That Can Contribute 2 The Colour You Choose 2 Add 2 Your Life Experience.
Personal development, self-help, spirituality, and British fiction are my go2s but if any other possible topic of interest were being sought, then audible.com is your hook up.
I transitioned from a full time restaurant job to a full time freelance career to a full time studio position only to reaffirm for my being that working for myself is how I am wired and this is the vibe I am meant to be emanating when I show up in this world.
An avenue in which I was able to accomplish incredible life trans formative healing and empowerment was through the information and knowledge distilled to me through authors such as Ilchi Lee, Frederick Dodson, Louise Hay, Vadim Zeland…. among many other authors distilling conscious and useful content have allowed me to elevate my life experience.
I have been able to enhance and revitalize the relationship I have within myself in ways that would not otherwise be so easily available to me if it were not for the convenience and economy that Audio Books and Amazon have provided me.
Knowledge is useful when it is of value and sourced from authentic sources a d awareness of our neural capacities to expand and transform is a remarkable asset to our journey through this life www.thegoodvibelife.com
Knowledge is further expanded on when you implement it experientially.
You can read a book about how great blueberries taste and learn information about them, but you cannot really have full knowledge of what encompasses the flavour of a blueberry until you actually put one in your mouth, bite down on it and taste the vibrant burst of flavour yourself.
In March 2008, Amazon bought Audible so it is now a subsidiary of Amazon.
If it interests you to learn further information about the Audible vibe, check out Wikipedia here.
The List of Benefits 2 the AudioBook Vibe Are Abundant – Take A Look!
1. Improves Language Fluency, Pronunciation & Comprehension
When I moved to Mexico, I was not a speaker of the Spanish language.
I downloaded a good amount of Audiobooks to listen to Spanish audio recordings just to get a better handle on the language.
The pauses, intonations, stresses and fluency demonstrated to me by way of an audible narrative allowed me to further grasp, at a rapid rate.
Additionally, I have downloaded audio books for the little cutie patootie in my life that is my 7, soon to be 8 year old son and we listen to stories together and it is a captivating experience.
It allows me to further explain and educate him on words he doesn't yet know and also, enables him to have the experience of listening to another human voice use language in a storytelling manner which furthers his expansion.
2. Listening Skills and Focus of Attention Level Up
Following along any material requires a certain level of focus and attention.
When you witness people interacting, you may be surprised, or perhaps not, that most people do not engage with real listening, but merely await a time in which they can respond with their own thoughts and ideas to the subject matter at hand.
Having developed listening skills is a characteristic that will lend itself to one's life experience.
The art of listening and concentrated focused attention are life enhancing practices and skills that helps in various avenues of a person's life.
3. Expands Your Opportunities In Terms of Time & Learning
As I stated above, when I am doing household chores it is a great opportunity for me to ingest some material via the audio book route to enhance and expand my experience.
In this day and age, it seems as if time can be fleeting or in some mindsets, can be all encompassing.
Audiobooks are available to you when you work out, when you commute, when you dial in household chores, when you shower and get ready for your day….the amount of activities that you do subconsciously, or on auto pilot are segways in which audio books can still be absorbed and enjoyed by your conscious mind.
If you enjoy information, knowledge or just good narratives, then the audibook route is a surefire advantage that you can implement into any aspect of your day.
4. An Alternative For The Visually Impaired Or 4 Those Who Don't Do The Read Vibe
A piece of fiction narrated to you can prove very entertaining and is also a huge win for anyone who has visual impairment and still wants to enjoy a good book.
People learn and absorb information at different rates and in a variety of ways.
To those who have a resistance or issue with reading, the audio book choice is a great vibe to add to your repertoire of good vibes that thrive.
I, myself, seem to gain more insights when I have a person speaking to me rather than reading the words from my own perspective.
The difference is subtle yet powerful in terms of how I absorb knowledge and information.
5. Mind & Heart Connectivity Enhancer
Listening to a piece of well written and narrated fiction can prove to allow your ability to empathize with people expand.
When you are able to immerse yourself in an audio book and identify aspects of your own humanity in the characters of the story, then you level up your emotional connectivity.
Additionally, self-help books or narrated books on subjects that ignite your Heartspace and stimulate your Mind are some of this worlds greatest gifts you can bestow upon yourself.

A Study of Missing Web-Cites in Scholarly Articles: Towards an Evaluation Framework
Sellitto, Carmine ORCID: 0000-0001-6119-9242 (2004) A Study of Missing Web-Cites in Scholarly Articles: Towards an Evaluation Framework. Journal of Information Science, 30 (6). pp. 484-495. ISSN 0165-5515
Download (142kB)
This paper reports on a study that examined citation practice in a set of scholarly papers. After evaluating 2162 bibliographic references it was found that 48.1% (1041) of all citations used in the papers referred to a Web-located resource. A significant number of references to URLs were found to be missing (45.8%) and an evaluation of these Web-located citations allowed the average half-life (4.8 years) for these missing resources to be determined. The study also examined the composition of the top-level domains associated with resource loss as well as the proportional use of Web-located resources in individual articles. The proportional use of Web-located resources in individual articles and their corresponding evaluation for disappearance has not been previously documented. The paper utilised the proportional Web citation aspect of articles in proposing a Web-resource contribution index and a Web-citation use-loss grid that may aid future authors, editors and, in particular, researchers in investigating this growing aspect of citation behaviour.

Colorado Massacre Linked To Historic Bank Fraud - Killer Does Not Appear To Be James Holmes• http://anoncentral.tumblr.com
Not known to the majority of those affected by this LIBOR rate scandal (which is everyone in the world) is that its historically low setting of interests rates since the beginning of the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-2012 has done more to destroy the life savings, stock investments and retirements of Americas middle class than any other single event in their entire history.
Even worse, according to this report, Holmes recently completed his work on what is called one of the most sophisticated computer algorithms ever developed that not only uncovered the true intent of this massive fraud, but is, also, able to trace the Trillions of Dollars "lost" to the exact bank accounts of the elite classes who have stolen it.
This Colorado massacre occurred within minutes of London's Guardian News Service releasing report this past Saturday (21 July) titled "Wealth Doesn't trickle Down – It Just Floods Offshore, Research Reveals" as Robert Holmes algorithms were said used to discover this massive fraud scheme.

Verratti and a return to Tiki Taka is Barca's best chance of beating Madrid
There is still some anger among Barcelona fans after the club's disappointing end to the season. Only around 8,000 supporters turned up at Camp Nou on Saturday to pay tribute to the 25th anniversary of their team's first European Cup. After seeing Real Madrid clinch La Liga and also the Champions League, many were not in the mood to celebrate past glories.
Barca target Verratti demands PSG exit
Icons such as Ronald Koeman, Hristo Stoichkov and even Pep Guardiola were in town to commemorate the date: two and a half decades since Barca's brilliant Dream Team beat Sampdoria at Wembley to claim their maiden European Cup. There was a seven-a-side match against Benfica (rivals in the semi-finals in 1992), a video to recall the victory and a mock celebration as the players lifted a replica of the famous trophy.
The real one, however, belongs to Real right now and that is all too fresh in the minds of many Barca fans. And perhaps that is why, on Sunday, the Bernabeu was packed out as many of Madrid's own legends lined up in a friendly match against a Roma XI.
At Camp Nou on Saturday, the biggest cheers in an eerily empty stadium were reserved for Guardiola. Because despite winning the treble under Luis Enrique, Barca have not swept aside their rivals with the same style and swagger since Pep walked away in 2012. And now Madrid look like being in a position to take over as the dominant force in Spain and Europe.
A statement signing this summer is now needed to restore some optimism in the Catalan capital and Marco Verratti ticks the boxes. Having moved away from the juego de posición philosophy that made this team so special, there is hope that Barca will return to their roots under new coach Ernesto Valverde.
Verratti move complicated, says agent
Ever since Xavi departed after helping Barca win the treble in 2014-15, Barca's brilliance in attack has papered over the cracks in a midfield lacking a pertinent plan. But if the Catalans are to challenge Zinedine Zidane's side in the coming campaigns, they will need more than the inspiration of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar.
Verratti is almost a carbon copy of Xavi. He is, at least, the closest a player can come to a like-for-like replacement for the World Cup winning Spain star - and that is why Barca are so keen to recruit the Italian international this summer.
A midfield masterclass from the 24-year-old helped PSG beat Barca 4-0 at the Parc des Princes in the Champions League in February and his team-mate Blaise Matuidi later said: "When Verratti was down on the ground with an injury, I told Iniesta that Marco was his successor and he replied that he thought the same."
Iniesta turned 33 last month, but showed in 2016-17 that he still has plenty to offer and a move for Verratti would give Barca a midfield trio similar stylistically to the one which saw the team triumph so spectacularly in Guardiola's great reign.
How Barca could play with Verratti
At Real, Zidane is assembling the world's strongest squad and the French coach has a wealth of options at his disposal, including a number of midfielders - such as Luka Modric, Toni Kroos, Isco and Marco Asensio - that not so long ago would have appeared more suited to Barca's style of play.
Meanwhile, mistakes have been made at Camp Nou. Thiago Alcantara was allowed to leave the Catalan club, as well as Cesc Fabregas, while players like Alex Song and more recently Andre Gomes are nowhere near good enough - or even the right fit - to make Barca's midfield great again. Such is the quality of Verratti, however, that he would improve any team in the world.
With Madrid so strong, Barca require a better tactical plan. There is a new coach in place and a new shirt has been unveiled too. Some supporters have already put Verratti's name on their kit for next season and they will now hope the transfer goes ahead.
Even Xavi agrees. "Verratti would be the ideal signing for Barcelona in my opinion," he said in March. "I think Verratti is a bit like me. He always goes in search of the ball quite deep on the pitch and then takes it forward and dictates play.
Xavi: Verratti would be ideal for Barcelona
"Verratti is small just like me and he never loses the ball. His technique is incredible. He is a player I would love to see at Barcelona."
So the number six shirt, currently worn by Denis Suarez, lies in wait and Verratti appears set on a move to Barca as well - probably ever since his PSG side collapsed at Camp Nou in a 6-1 loss to the Blaugrana back in March.
After all the average players signed by Barca last summer, it is time for a game-changer to be brought in at Camp Nou and Verratti has the backing of Xavi, Iniesta, the fans and the board. The Italian can help bring about a return to the Tiki Taka style that made this team so special - and he could also be key to wrestling back power from rivals Real over the next few seasons.

With support from the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology, Iran will be sending the country's best tech- and knowledge-based companies to set up a national pavilion, ITIRAN writes. According to the ministry, 70% of the costs of the event will be paid for by the ministry itself, so the small startup companies do not have to foot the bill. Iran has a growing business community in the tech sector with success stories appearing across the globe on a weekly basis. In the 2015 edition of the event, held earlier this year, companies like Hami Edalat Electronics and other small- and medium-sized businesses participated. CeBit last year had over 850,000 visitors. For further information on participation, interested parties can contact the Confederation of Iranian ICT Companies at www.icicta.ir.

Business hoping for a credible Cabinet from Ramaphosa – Investec economist
JOHANNESBURG – President Cyril Ramaphosa this week came under intense pressure to appoint a credible Cabinet capable of implementing his reform agenda with his picks likely to determine the direction of the markets and investor sentiment in the next few months.
Investec economist Kamilla Kaplan said the next point of focus for the markets would be the announcement in May of the size and composition of the cabinet and the state of the nation address in June.
"This is expected to provide more clarity on government policy especially in relation to economic growth enhancing measures," Kaplan said.
"These will also be scrutinised by the credit rating agencies given the implications for the fiscal ratios, with the government deficit presently close to 5 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) and debt hovering at 60 percent of GDP."
Moody's, the last of the major rating agencies that still has the country's sovereign debt above junk, on Wednesday warned Ramaphosa that it was keeping a keen eye on the composition of the incoming administration and the policies it would pursue to address South Africa's key credit challenges.
In one of its sternest warnings to date, Moody's said the country was fast slipping into junk status as continuing structural weaknesses and rising debt overran South Africa's ability to service its obligations.
Nolan Wapenaar, fund manager at Anchor Capital, said it would be crucial for the economy that Ramaphosa appoints a skilled executive.
"Much is being made of the shape of the new cabinet as it will be the first glimpse into what President Cyril Ramaphosa's reform agenda will really look like and whether he will rid the ANC (and the country) of Zuma-era rentseekers and compromised individuals," Wapenaar said.
Pressure on Ramaphosa intensified further where data showed that the labour market conditions deteriorated in the first quarter with the unemployment rate having picked up to 27.6 percent from 27.1 percent and in line with weak economic data releases during the quarter. First quarter activity data has indicated that the economy has contracted in the first three months of the year, after retail sales, mining and production figures all weakened on a quarter on quarter basis.
Maarten Ackerman, chief economist at Citadel, said many of the policies announced during the course of last year and are already in the pipeline, but investors will want to see that Ramaphosa and government take definitive action in terms of implementation.
"If the government is able to show definitive progress by the time of the Mid-Term Budget Policy Statement in October, it could hopefully mean that we will be able to avoid or defer a potential credit ratings downgrade," Ackerman said.

This is NOT a Flannel Story!
(Because it's made out of paper)
I made most of my "flannel" stories out of paper not because I'm some sort of rebel against the fabric industry, just because I like paper. It's a more versatile and easier medium to work with for me.
With Halloween coming up, I wanted to do "This is is NOT a Pumpkin" by Bob Staake. If you have read this book, you probably have found it as quirky and charming as I do.
Also if you've used this book in storytime, you'll notice it presents some challenges.
1- It's small (typical board book size)
2- It's an older book and often harder to find in libraries (Our system only had 7 copies)
I researched and googled ideas for a flannel on this story and didn't find one. So perhaps I'm the first person to do this book as a flannel and share it. Enjoy!
This is NOT a Pumpkin- Text by Bob Staake
|Book added for scale
It's round
It's big,
It has a steam
But this is NOT a pumpkin
You can turn it sideways
You can even turn it upside down.
You can put it in a corner
or throw it high in the air
And wonder if it will come back down
But no matter HOW you look at it this is NOT a pumpkin!
Why because EVERYONE knows that pumpkins
(Turn you pumpkin around)
Don't SMILE!
Pumpkins don't smile or frown
Jack-o'- lanterns do.
This is NOT a pumpkin.
THIS is a Jack-o'- lantern!
The trick to creating this is to make sure the back of your pumpkin matches the front of your pumpkin. Since I used laminated paper, I also made sure to place a few pieces of double stick table on each side of your pumpkin and in the corners (for the "putting in in the corner, throwing it up" etc.) If your felt is super good at sticking to your board, kudos to you! But for the rest of us...double stick tape.
The eyes, nose and mouth are removable, chiefly the mouth has to be easy to move so you can turn it upside down to frown.
May your upcoming storytimes be spooky!

Author Karl Marlantes will be at the Visalia Veterans Memorial Building on October 9, 2014, at 10:30 am to discuss his book, What is it Like to Go to War and to answer questions.
Marlantes is a Vietnam veteran, a Rhodes Scholar and the author of the New York Times best-selling novel Matterhorn. His book, What is it Like to Go to War, has received much reader and critical acclaim since its publication in 2011 and has frequently been cited by veterans as the work that best expresses their experience.
The book has been selected by Cal Humanities as the community read for its "War Comes Home" initiative. Focusing on the veteran experience, this initiative aims to increase public understanding and empathy for those who have served, as well as to spark a public conversation on how best we can support the process of reincorporating our veterans into the fabric of civilian life.

Little Pump Reeds KONTAKT WAV
AudioP2P | 01-09-2010 | 1.0 GB
This collection explores the smaller side of hand-held reed-based instruments. It includes fine quality hand-crafted traditional Indian Shruti Boxes, a mini accordion and something we like to refer to as The Plastisax. We even found a 2-note paper and cardboard concertina. As always, we've sampled each instrument lovingly and thoroughly. We took them much farther than they were ever designed to go and found sounds surprisingly rich, full and playable. In the end, we just decided it was high time somebody give these little misfit toys the respect and attention to detail that they truly deserve.
Little Pump Reed specs:
* Core instruments/articulations
o Shruti Box 1 (soft attack/release)
o Shruti Box 1 (hard attack/release)
o Shruti Box 1 (modwheel tone/expression control)

Lizzo shows love to Nicki Minaj.
We previously reported on Nicki Minaj celebrating her 12 years in the game with a post wherein she emphasized the multiple contributions she made to the Hip Hop industry as a female artist, the importance of writing her own content, and most importantly, paying her dues to those who came before her. While Twitter and other social media platforms split into two teams, one which favored and/or opposed Nicki Minja's views, the majority showed love to the artist. And most recently, budding Hip Hop artist Lizzo became one of the Barbz and thought it best to respond in favor of the rapper with a video where she showed love to Nicki Minaj for opening doors for women like her in Hip Hop. In response to a question posed on her Instagram live, Lizzo shared the following when asked about her opinion on Nicki Minaj:
"Here's my opinion. Influential, ground-breaking, ushered in the new wave of this generation of women in rap. Bars, punch-lines, iconic voice. I love Nicki. B*tch what?" Clearly, Lizzo said what she said and is unapologetically standing with Ms. Minaj. The "MEGATRON" artist retweeted the video and wrote: "And I love you back mama!!!" Are you Team Nicki or do you think otherwise?

Is your life out of control?
Do people take advantage of you?
Do you have trouble saying no?
Are you disappointed with God because of unanswered prayers?
Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks those things for which we are responsible. In other words boundaries define who we are and who we are not.
Boundaries impact all areas of our lives: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. Often Christians focus so much on being loving and unselfish that they forget their own limits and limitations. This book will help determine your boundaries.

|On the same land mass (that's quietly going to the dogs.. like the rest of the world) as DXzeff, Brostenen..
Some complete and utter basket case miggy 500's can be had for as low as around 30 something of HRH's notes.. But as I'm trying to make a "living" off the base dole.. Even that's a fucking stretch.. I'm not even going to bother looking at an A1200 either (They may as well be trying to sell me an Atari Falcon.. Which I'd love to have as well.. But those are pure fuck'n ubuntainium to me)
I'd consider a raspberry Pi.. IF there was a version of Ultra Amiga Emulator that could emulate a OCHI complaint USB controller with USB device pass through..
The Amithlon emulator has some cool hyperviser like device pass through feature, so you can get access to the host machines PCI bus, which means you can use all the good stuff like graphics boards, IDE and USB controllers, Ethernet etc.. So long as you have the OpenPCI and Amithlon device drivers installed (plus the native 68k drivers for the hardware, which would also work on a real machine with somthing like a Mediator Zorro to PCI bus bridge board) in Amiga OS. While UAE would never be able to pull something like that off.. Just a simple USB pass through feature would be enough.. As you can simply copy shit off a USB storage device using the Poseidon USB stack software.. Plus you can also piss around with other cool shit like USB midi interfaces and webcams etc.

Whilst I'm used to playing the C64 version it wasn't that useful for learning the song, because the SID doesn't really generate tones that are close to actual notes much of the time, so the Spectrum version had to be listened to over and over instead.

Cool. Yeah, the SID chip sometimes does not sound like anything else. Nearly finished with that A500 restore project. And in the next couple of weeks, I will install that accelerator card in my other A500, wich is a card with 030 50mhz CPU, FPU, extra Ram and IDE controller. Going to give it a new floppy drive as well. Then I have this A600, that I am going to give an kickrom switch and I am waiting for Individual computers to release new A600 scandoublers. And finally, I am going to give my C64 a full recap. I recieved new caps for it a couple of days ago.
After that, I am going back to PC, as I need to move a DX33 machine to another and better looking case. And I need to get a butt-load of zip-ties for cable management in all my machines. Another thing that I need to look for, is a SD-SCSI adaptor, as my old SCSI drive are dying. My 1gb drive, the one that are dying, will short curcuit or something. The PSU shuts down, once the drive begins to spinn up. So an SD adaptor for my VLB SCSI adaptor is in dire need. Especially when I want my DX2-80 to run SCSI. That is awesomme stuff.

I have that exact same model of S3 PCI. They are indeed wonderfull cards. Good clean signal, great speed and wonderfull compatibility.
For me...
I gave my "primaery" Amiga500 a new floppy drive. I had this dead and shorted Amiga500 floppy drive, that was a modded PC drive from Alps. And after some digging around in the closet, I found a complete untouched Alps drive. Same model number as well. So I moved the top shield and the eject button to the unmodded drive. Mounted it in the Amiga500 and connected an adaptor cable, wich provides both ready and disk change signal plus changing the drive from DF1 to DF0. Works beautifully in the Amiga, and I have gone through some 25/30 disks in one go, and they all loaded without issues.

|Fixed the hole in the Amiga case, using cut out pieces of plastic and super glue. Finished it off, by painting it with paint, made from original Amiga500 case and acetone. Covers it well, and later I need to smooth it out using sandpaper. Case fixed.... :-P
Then I installed a kickstart switcher, that has 1.3 and 3.1 in one chip. Drilled a hole for the contact in the side of the bottom part of the case. That is below the eject button, and placed a bit fúrther back towards the end of the case. Used an original 2-way contact from the 80's. Much more durable than modern flimsy ones. This baby need a 6mm hole and not a 4mm hole.
Now it is ready for installation of the Terrible Fire TF-530 accelerator card. And a harddrive. I will still be able to run old games, that require kickstart 1.3 and I will have access to a harddrive internally.

|Tried and tested out my Terrible Fire TF-530 accelerator card these last few days. And found that I need to get a kickstart socket relocator in order to have my cloanto dual-kickstart rom switcher installed. It is quite tall, and a few millimeters are in the way of the CPU relocator. I can install the card without the CPU-Relocator. Though doing that, will prevent me from having the keyboard installed in my Amiga500.
On the bright side... This card makes my 500 around some 17 or so times faster. It has roughly 7 times faster CPU power of an Amiga1200, and double of an Amiga3000. Oh boy...
And the build in harddrive controller are just wonderfull. Transfers some 1.9 to 2.3 megabyte/second. Love it.
Then comes additional 2mb of ram and there is even an FPU on the board. Just awesomme....

|@CyrixInstead; That's an old Tiny case. Probably faster than my K5 because of SDRAM.
@Old Guy 88; You're lucky if that will boot from CF, mine didn't.
@Brostenen; These things are all well and good, though I do question at what point the line is drawn and it stops being an Amiga any more.
After almost 15 years of trying to find one, this showed up;
Hopefully it works because it was not cheap, though it's not as useful as it might have been due to the ECS SI55P taking its place. Still, always wanted another one as I remember it being unusually quick with a P75 installed at the time, maybe it's just rose tinted memory glasses, be nice to find out, still have all the parts from that system aside from the hard drive, that died years ago.

That is a nice looking board. I have no wide knowledge or personal attachment to any Pentium boards. Not to say that I do not like that platform. It is awesomme. I just do not know much about the motherboards. I guess I was more into restructuring my life, and working hard, after a failed education and moving halfway across the country at that point in time.
For you'r question. Well... To me, an Amiga stops being an Amiga. When it does not have or is 100% compatible with the old chipset's. That would be OCS, ECS and AGA. Now. I know that there are the new PPC AmigaOS compatible motherboards, sporting G4 CPU's and so on. To me they are nothing but AmigaOS 4 compatible boards, and not really an Amiga. Then we have the VampireV4 boards comming out in the next couple of years. They have a beta version running allready, and as they are FPGA boards, then they have programmed the chip to be a fully working AGA machine. In contrast to OS4 machines, then the VampireV4 is a true Amiga in my eyes. You can actually make it into an tripple a machine (AAA chipset) wich were a system that were put to the grave by Commodore, and they build AGA out of that system. That would be an Amiga in my eyes as well.
If you were thinking about my Accelerator and stuff, and other upgrades. Then there has always been stuff like that. I have seen Amiga's from 1992, running a complete and smooth version of Dooom. Shure it takes a special kind off beefy CPU and Ram upgrade, though putting insane amount of money into vintage gear, will make an Amiga4000 capeable of running Doom fluid. You just have one single downside. That is the lack of midi soundtrack in Doom. Money wise, it is not worth it, unless you had the hardware back then and kept to it untill now.

|This is the Vampire that I was talking about. It is a complete Amiga inside an FPGA chip, on a board that are standalone, or can be used as an accelerator upgrade card. Quite neat if you ask me....

Your quite right, that is a Tiny case housing my K5, well spotted, it originally had a Pentium 120 with a VIA chipset board, the battery had leaked really badly and ruined many traces even to the point of travelling up through the simm sockets and ruining the 8mb simm installed. That went into the bin obviously, no saving that, and was years ago anyhow, before most folk cared about these things.
Out of curiosity have you tried a K5 75MHz? I have an SSA/5 here and it seemed to go pretty well in that same setup above, managed to figure out the DIP settings to get 50MHz bus speed with trial and error(along with 75,83 & 95). Just wondered how that K5 might stand up against a Intel. Was about 3 years ago I did that mind you, so might have to dig about for the setting, I know I wrote it all down, but where is the question! Anyhow glad you got the SiS going, I'm fond of there stuff, run a Cyrix MII 333 on one and a K6/2 450 on a later 530, good stuff I reckon.

|@Brostenen; That case badge looks familiar. Blood doesn't scare me, not in that way, more so it pisses me off because it almost never runs right and something always seems to break down after playing it.
@CyrixInstead; I was literally just pulling the board apart for cleaning when you posted. Here's how it runs that with a K5-75 installed;
Not very much in it. I'm hoping that the RTC will run consistently after cleaning, messing with a pencil eraser when the system was on made it start ticking again so it's either dirt or else components that need reflowing, it can't be the CMOS as it holds parameters correctly. Guess we'll know in a week or so when the board is dry. Apple juice is way more effective than it should be at cleaning that blue fur (copper oxide?) off of things, used it because I had no petrol or vinegar to hand and I'm honestly impressed.
On the subject of undocumented settings, this board has an unlisted 3x multiplier and a couple of clocks that aren't too useful, this does mean 200MHz WinChip CPUs are an option though and it can run with one, nips the toes of a Pentium MMX surprisingly well with that in.
Otherwise this board appears to, indeed, be faster than my near-identical ECS SI55P, the basis of my current K5 and a distant replacement for my original one of these - my first time running a K5 was on the original PCI54ST. The ECS uses the same SiS chipset and scores pretty much 1:1 with a 430VX board, which implies this old bastard is faster than boards on that chipset despite being older. Unfortunately the power circuitry does not like larger processors, so I think moving my K5-166 into here isn't really feasible. It may be possible to find a better regulator and change a resistor or two to make up for this though.
This is what the SI55P looks like in case you wondered, even most of the jumpers are in the same place;

Yup... It is one of your case badges.
As for what I did today. Then I gamed console games on my RetroPIE setup on my living room TV.
Both of my children are visiting this weekend, so we had a blast with SNES and PS1 games for two hours.
I can highly recommend the controller that are sold as "Speedlink Strike NX".
It is really a great piece of hardware. Well build, responsive, with cable and not wireless. Top product.

|After a recap some time ago, I thought it would be fun to see how a Lumafix64 will behave in my Commodore64. And it is actually working as intended now. I did not see the big difference before recap, but now... Oh boy.
Then I played some pakman, supercycle, 1942 and great giana sisters. The picture looks 100% brand new, and all details are sharp in the picture. I have set the colour intensity on the lumafix, so it is slightly warmer than the stock C64-c model, and the result is a picture that are somewhat the same as the original breadbin. I can highly say good for a C64 recap and a lumafix64.

|@DXzeff: El SID can be quite a tricky bar steward to nail down.. And the programmable filters and ring modulator you can feed the output of the oscillators through don't help either.. General and Texas Instruments PSGs where a lot more simple affairs indeed.. in comparison.
@Brostenen: That Miggy 500 looks like it's coming along quite nicely.. I just wish some of my old clunkers had been easy fixer up'ers *quickly glances over to the pile of written off machines in the "corner of shame"* urm.. yeah..
Well.. I don't really have anything else to report upon.. I Haven't acquired any new "toys" yet.. I have my eyes set upon some shit on that there Fleabay.. Buuuut that fucking Christmas thing is around the corner.. And the girly fwiend be wanting some of them "present" thingies.. (more blooody money.. *mumble* *grumble*) I'm still pretty much gripped with "Amiga fever" at the moment.. But still can't afford any miggy related hardware.. So I've dusted off my trusty ole late '05 PowerBook to give that MorphOS thingy a go.. AAAaaand so far.. The results have been mostly promising..
If I does everything I want to do with it.. then I'm most certainly going to through some money the developers way for a license .. OH and it runs quite a bit faster than OS X 10.5.. bloody hell.. it's like my ole PowerBook has had a turbo charger crammed up its arse (or... maybe its a leaf blower?).

Well... I have ordered another CPU for that TF-530 Accelerator, as the one that I recieved with the card, is with a rather high profile heatsink. And I have ordered parts, so I can make a Kickstart relocator/extender. I want to use this single chip kickstart switcher that I have, and it is on a PCB, that has some switching circuit. The reason behind this, is that the two kickroms are stored on two different locations, and flipping the contact will make the Amiga look on a different location in the eprom chip. As of now, the top left corner of the eprom is in the way of the CPU relocator PCB. And with a KickRom relocator, then I will be able to move the kickrom and make room for the CPU relocator.
Once my a500 are finished being upgraded, then I will have a machine with the following spec's:
- 68030 and FPU, both running at 50mhz.
- 4,5 MegaByte Ram. (1 Chip, 2 Fast and 1,5 Slow)
- 4 GigaByte internal HDD (CF-Card)
- KickRomSwitcher (1.3 and 3.1 rom)
- ScanPlusECS Scandoubler. (Internal scandoubler, 50hz Refresh rate)
The scandoubler is HIGHLY recommended, though you need a monitor that can sync to 50hz refresh rate. CRT's are like bullitproof, yet LCD/TFT monitors are a bit different. Most can not synch to 50hz, yet those that do, run sublime with the scandoubler. The colour's are spot on and both vertical and horisontal scrolling are 100% identical to that of original Commodore or Philips Amiga monitors. And the price are not bad at all. Just under 100 Euro for a brand new scandoubler.
And the 500 that I am refurbishing, and writing a blog post about. Are fully functional as of now. I need to find a replacement trapdoor lid and finally I need to spray paint the machine. That however, will not be upgraded with any nice stuff. Well... Perhaps I will get another ScanPlusECS scandoubler for that machine. Else it will only have a 512kb Ram upgrade as the only thing. That has gotten a new floppy drive as well. And it has a complete shielding now, plus it has gotten a new red light keyboard and some white keycaps that are less yellowed. Meaning that I now have a complete red-light keyboard in the closet, that I will be saving as a sparepart.

|I was given a SuperNintendo with two copies of Super Mario Allstars and one copy of Starwing. Starwing is the european version of Starfox. And I was given an old numeric keyboard, from an old 1960's or 1970's NCR accounting computer. It is one of them old car sized computers that did not have any monitor and used punchcards. It is heavy, blue and made from metal.

|I'm not dead, just been tied up with things, largely having my time wasted by people on other boards. The more time I spend on this planet, the more I am amazed by how much people suck.
Incidentally they're not very good at what they do, because they fucked me over before taking my money instead of afterwards, morons. Ah well, probably getting that new camera soon anyway, I shall update on this and other things as they happen but I'm knackered right now.

"Well, because poor people don't vote," Sanders told host Chuck Todd. "I mean, that's just a fact. That's a sad reality of American society."
Sanders said that while his campaign has done a good job of attracting young voters, he's had less success driving up turnout of lower-income people. In the 2014 election, he said, "80 percent of poor people did not vote."
"If we can significantly increase voter turnout so that low-income people and working people and young people participated in the political process, if we got a voter turnout of 75 percent, this country would be radically transformed," Sanders said during the taping of the segment, which is scheduled to air Sunday morning.
It's not clear that larger turnout among poor voters would have actually helped Sanders against Clinton, however.
Sanders has lost Democratic voters with household incomes below $50,000 by 55 percent to 44 percent to Clinton across primaries where network exit polls have been conducted. (He has lost by a wider 21 percentage-point margin among voters with incomes above $100,000, and by 9 points among middle income voters.)
Sanders's comments were released by NBC on Saturday while he was campaigning here in Delaware, one of five states that hold primaries Tuesday. Sanders started his day in Maryland, another of those states. During a stop in Baltimore, he argued that "poverty is a death sentence," citing figures showing a discrepancy between the life expectancies of people born in rich and poor neighborhoods in that city.
During his campaign, Sanders has put forward a variety of measures aimed at helping poorer voters, including raising the minimum wage, guaranteeing paid family leave and making tuition free at public colleges and universities.
Meanwhile Hillary Clinton spent Saturday campaigning in the two states voting Tuesday – Connecticut and Rhode Island – where Sanders is considered to have the best chance.
In Rhode Island, where Sanders will campaign on Sunday, Clinton held a lively rally in Central Falls, a small city that is about 70 percent Hispanic and poor. Median household income is estimated at roughly $28,000. The crowd was largely white however, with a big turnout from organized labor.
Clinton said little about Sanders, but said her plan to make college more affordable is more practical than his free-tuition proposal. "Were going to put the money where it's most needed, so everyone who wants to go to college can afford to do so," she said.
The Clinton campaign told top donors at a briefing Wednesday, the day after her big victory in New York, that Clinton could well lose in Rhode Island, a person familiar with the briefing said on condition of anonymity because the session was confidential.
If Sanders does win in Rhode Island, the loss would be offset by the support of the state's 9 superdelegates, all of whom are supporting Clinton.
At the same briefing for donors, campaign representatives said they are backing off direct attacks on Sanders somewhat after the New York victory, although Clinton surrogates have continued to criticize him this week.
Sanders has continued to aggressively lay out his differences with Clinton in recent days, citing the Iraq war, trade policy, fracking and other issues.
Polling manager Scott Clement in Washington contributed to this report.

Employers could increase worker performance by 20% simply by increasing the fresh air supply in offices and meeting rooms, according to a new report from Sharp which reviews the role of indoor air quality, temperature and lighting on office work performance and wellness in meetings.
With the average UK office worker spending 17 hours a month in meetings, its key that businesses get them right. The new report, developed by Sharp and workplace psychologist Dr Nigel Oseland, highlights the importance of creating the right conditions for meetings in order to boost productivity.
The report identifies temperature as another key environmental factor that has an impact on memory recall, attention span, and creativity, which all affect performance. Gradually decreasing the temperature to 18°C one hour before the end of the working day was found to boost productivity and increase employee performance by 4.1%, beneficial for lengthy meetings and combatting the end of day productivity lull.
Office and meeting room lighting was also found to have a significant impact on concentration and productivity, with the latest research revealing good lighting can improve performance by 15%. Good lighting and daylight are essential to employee's wellness and mood, with findings showing that workers in offices with windows had 46 minutes more sleep a night compared to workers without them. This provides reason for businesses to consider the design of their workspaces to include lighting that delivers the optimal place for employees to think and collaborate.
"Studies have repeatedly shown that uncomfortable environmental conditions can negatively affect performance in the general office space and meeting rooms. This provides a strong business case to control and adapt these conditions in order to boost productivity and worker performance in meetings," commented Oseland.
Chris Parker, senior product manager at Sharp, added: "Advancements in collaboration technologies, together with the capabilities offered by IoT and cloud platforms mean it's now easier than ever for businesses to get better value from their meetings.
"When you know the temperature of a meeting room and you can send that data to the cloud, and from the cloud, communicate this to your heating and cooling system to take an action, you have a system that adapts to how your meeting spaces are used. We believe this is the start of a revolution in smart spaces."

Benefits Of AA Coins
AA coins are also called AA chip that is given to members of sobriety groups and other programs, they are usually round like and small tokens that help in marking achievements and the time someone has taken to remain as the. This groups are important because they help people who have been struggling with the problems of alcohol to change and get along properly into new lives, they will make friends with other members in those groups hence they will feel encouraged.
AA coins are of very good importance because they come with a lot of benefits, they enable someone that is addicted to being motivated throughout recovery due to the meetings held by the groups. These coins are made of different material and colors with each AA coin showing its symbol. For example, the white coin is usually a 24 hours day AA chip of sobriety, it is used to show the first day into recovery and also give hope for continued success sobriety. These coins are available in many styles; the common one is made from aluminum, and it is usually one inch in diameter. Coins that are made of bronze shows that a person is staying sober for a week, the one that is metallic shows that an individual is staying sober for one month.
Alcoholic anonymous coins are of good importance because whenever someone sees them he or she will remember his journey to abstain drugs and alcohols hence is a good tool which makes people remember. Even though this coins deal with alcoholism, they are also fun and interesting because people will have the joy of wondering which color will come next. People loves something that is tangible for example mementos and various collections hence the AA coins will a wonderful thing to have as they go on with their journey to start a new life.
When the time goes by, and the individual remains sober still, then he or she can collect more and more coins which have many benefits to him or her after receiving them, an individual will be able to take the coins to the token shop and purchase what he or she wants. This coins are now important to this organizations because using them will enable them to get a lot of people abstain drugs which are usually their goal. The individuals who are in this organizations learn various ways of using the coins, they are also taught what each coin signifies to avoid problems as they go on with their journey.

First off, a confession. Due to some rather exciting client commitments at Harbour I only managed to make it to the afternoon of the conference this year (which was a shame). If you haven't been to the annual Marketing Society conference, I'd strongly recommend you do. The main reason being that it, paradoxically, rarely has anything to do with marketing. Every year it manages to skilfully avoid the kind of naval-gazing self-obsession that most industry conferences ladle on with a trowel. It always has an amazing set of curated speakers that invariably manage to give me a sackful of advice for how to do my job without trotting out the same case studies from the same industry names talking about the same campaigns (and mostly without ever actually mentioning advertising or marketing at all!)
This year I saw the incredible Gina Miller, the irrepressible Billy Monger, the unerringly calm Rob Poynton and picked up a copy of the book (but guttingly missed the speaker slot) by the almost impossible human, David Nott.
I have to also confess that the title of the conference made me wince when I was first invited a couple of years ago. Bravery, pah! What a cliché! What's brave about marketing? This view was reinforced by an incident that occurred to me a few years back.
My youngest son's best mate's dad is a fireman. When I arrived at a school parents' dinner, very very late, I apologised profusely - blaming the "emergency" that had come up at work. He looked at me with a grin and said "I imagine, Kev, that your definition of an emergency at work differs a bit from mine!" There was the lesson right there. For all of us. And in the context of bravery.
But this is the lesson that I think this conference is trying to teach us. We can all be brave in our own lives and worlds, but mostly when it comes to marketing 'bravery' isn't real bravery, so we should just go for it!
Listening to Gina Miller talk about all the challenges she has faced in her life and the way she has faced them down – and she still doesn't think she's brave. She says that she just gets up every day and "does her best". Listening to Billy Monger, an energetic, inspirational, irrepressible young man who faced an almost unimaginable challenge to his lifelong dream and just chose to carry on through it with the support of his amazing family and team. Talking with the rest of the delegates about the rest of the speakers, especially David Nott, it should teach us one thing. Bravery in marketing isn't really bravery at all, in the usual sense. Bravery in advertising isn't really bravery at all. It's just doing the right thing, like Gina said. After all, when it comes to our jobs, what's the worst that can happen? We're not really being brave doing something different to everyone else. In fact, one of the other speakers proved we're actually doing the opposite!
Thomas Barta took us through some data from the largest study ever done on Brave Leadership, that proved categorically that taking the 'braver' decision in business is actually the safest thing you can do. A study of 1281 execs in 62 countries that proves that the single biggest driver of business success is brave leadership. And we know now, from Gina and the rest, that we're not really being that brave anyway!
So, my takeaway from the brave conference is that the best way to ensure business success is to be brave. If we listen to brave people, they will give us the tips, tricks and tools to be brave. And when it comes down to it, we're not even being very brave anyway even when we are being, in the context of our day jobs. So, let's make better, bolder, braver decisions in all we do.
Final mention and huge props to Gemma and the team. It's not easy putting on one of these conferences. It's even harder putting on a good one. Putting on a conference for busy, senior marketers with a list of different speakers takes a bit of bravery. But it's worth it.

Lose Weight and Avoid Boredom - The 4 Day Diet
Dieting is never easy. Inside your house, particularly in your kitchen, there's always a scrumptious meal prepared at the dining table. As you walk along the streets, it's very rare that you do not encounter a fancy restaurant, fast-food chain or even bakery. In your workplace or in school, there's a canteen that serves delectable foods which are pleasing to your eyes. Unfortunately, temptation lurks everywhere, making it hard for you to stick with your chosen diet plan.
However, there's a solution for your problem. You can always subscribe to the 4 Day Diet. The 4 Day Diet is a diet plan created by Dr. Ian Smith, author of the Fat Smash and Extreme Fat Smash diets. The good thing about this diet is that it helps you avoid the common woes of dieting such as boredom caused by too much repetition, and plateaus as a result of giving in to our sinful food cravings. By inculcating discipline in you, the 4 Day Diet seeks to help you adjust to new eating patterns and curtail the amount of food you eat. If strictly adhered, this diet plan promises a weight loss of 10-12 pounds in twenty-eight days.
Contrary to its title, this diet is not a crash diet that lasts for four days only. Rather it consists of seven separate dieting modules that last for four days each. The seven dieting modules are Induction, Transition, Protein Stretch, Smooth, Push, Pace, and Vigorous.
The Induction Module detoxifies your body, cleansing it from all 'poisons' present in your body. It recommends the consumption of fruit, vegetables, and other non-starchy foods such as beans and brown rice until you lose some pounds. Chicken, fish, and beef are strictly prohibited. Low-fat or nonfat yogurt or milk, however, is allowed.
Next is the Transition Module. The Transition Module reintroduces all food groups into your meal plan. It includes in your meal plan a lot of unprocessed foods that are high in fiber in order to help you feel full despite fewer calories. In this module, you follow the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for each food group.
Meanwhile, the Protein Stretch Module allows you to load up on protein and urges you to reduce your consumption of carbohydrate-rich food. It adds lean meats, fish, milk, and eggs to your diet to prevent weight loss plateaus. This is to help your muscles synthesize proteins as your muscle develops.
The Smooth Module gives you four days to eat some of your formerly forbidden food cravings (such as pizza and chips) in moderation. Meanwhile, the Push Module requires you to go back to your strict diet plan. Aside from prohibition of unhealthy foods, it requires you to reduce your food consumption
As your body adjusts to the diet plan, the Pace Module allows you to indulge in momentary pleasure. Finally, the Vigorous Module is designed to help you shred the remaining pounds you'd like to get rid of. As long as you follow the first two modules, you can do the other five in whatever sequence you wish.
For this diet to be more effective, Smith advises that this diet be supplemented with exercise. Dieters are advised to do a combination of aerobics and strength training in every module. More than thirty minutes of exercise is advised on most days of the week.
Overall, this diet is quite appealing especially for those who prefer variety and get easily bored with their diet plan. Unlike other diet plans, the 4 Day Diet allows dieters to customize their diet plan according to their preferences. Hence, it's a unique approach to help keep dieters interested in adhering to their diet plan.

Glacier Paperweight by Glass Eye Studio. This paperweight is from the Environmental Series. It comes gift boxed with the studio card. 3″ diameter.
Glass Eye Studio
Seattle, WA
Glass Eye Studio was founded on the belief that talented glass artists should have a place to work where their skills and creativity are fully appreciated. Glass Eye Studio is collected by people all over the world. Each piece they produce contains ash from the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens.
The 'Volcano' card states:
"A Sleeping Giant can only rest for so long. And when it awakes, it wakes with a fury that can be fatal to any living thing nearby. Grouchy grumbles and cranky tremors signal the giant's awakening. It can bare the built up pressure no longer and coughs forth a grand cloud of rock and ash, darkening the skies for miles around. Glowing magma oozes from the opening, sending burning red rivers of lava down its sides. Glass Eye artists captured and suspended the cataclysm for your safe viewing and reflection."

The Guardian Article on Randazza Amicus Brief
29 Apr, 2016 in Uncategorized
UK newspaper The Guardian published an article on Friday about attorney Marc Randazza's fight to protect the Klingon language from being restrained by copyright. The brief, filed on behalf of the Language Creation Society in lawsuit between Paramount Pictures and the producers of a fan-made Star Trek film, argued the constructed languages are not subject to copyright, no matter who created them.
Randazza argued that Klingon has escaped its creators thanks to the "thousands of people" who have made it "an actual living language". Paramount could own a dictionary or dialogue from a script, he argued, but not a language used by Star Trek fans and others at conventions and colleges, in books and TV shows, and even during weddings.

Introduction: Melanie, Assistant Professor at Penn State University
It is my great pleasure to take part in this experience. One of the best parts of my job is witnessing students' global learning. It's so much work to organize student travel yet so rewarding to see how it changes people's lives.
Korea is brand new territory for me. Call me a geek, but I really enjoy doing the "literature review" on a country - learning about the history, culture and language through books, movies, social media and any other type of media that you can think of.
Years of experience have taught me that an international trip is much more enjoyable when you have more knowledge about where you are. So on any given morning you can catch me making hot tea and jamming out to an online K-pop station, or watching a new KWOW video while I eat lunch.
When I'm not geeking out on international travel, I enjoy sewing and quilting, reading, gardening and my dog, Shiner.
