Why can't we be worriless? Let us discard worries for- ever. The only way out is to be careful of these ants. Worries are like Ants all the time eating our head and brain and making us an empty minded fellow. We need to be bold and be strong. It is said that worry is purely our own matter. Though it has got something to do with our external circumstances. But there are certainly some positive factors within us that keep us happy and there is something negative within us also which keep us unhappy. Happy living through positive and good thoughts, is nothing more than that of living a normal life free from undue pressures, problems and tensions.

Geologic Time Lords
Results recently published in Science provide new knowledge that has major implications for understanding how the Arctic transitioned from a forested landscape to the ice- and snow-covered land we know today.
Brigham-Grette, a Professor in the Department of Geosciences and a senior member with the Climate System Research Center, has made trips to the Arctic roughly every othersummer since 1978 to research natural bluff exposures and sediment cores that contain geological snapshots of the climate in prehistoric times. More recently, her body of research has focused on Lake El'gygytgyn (EL-gee-git-gin), a large lake in Northeast Russia that rests inside a crater formed by a meteorite strike 3.6 million years ago. After more than a decade of planning and $10 million in logistical funding, Brigham-Grette and a team of scientists from the U.S., Russia, Germany, and Austria have drilled into the lake to uncover sediment cores that contain the longest, most continuous record of climate in the current geologic time period.
"There's nothing like it anywhere in the entire northern hemisphere, and [it's] absolutely unique to the Arctic," says Brigham-Grette, the U.S. chief scientist on the project, funded by the International Continental Drilling Program and the US NSF. "It's the first time we have a terrestrial record, on land, of what climate change is like across the western Arctic. All the other information we have so far has come from the deep ocean, far from the arctic borderlands."
Within this record is the Pliocene, the last major warm period 3.0 million to 3.6 million years ago when carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere were similar to today and the Arctic was completely forested, according to Brigham-Grette. She hopes her research will also uncover explanations for why summer sea ice has been shrinking faster in the Arctic than models have predicted previously. "For us to understand that, why it's happening so fast, we need to understand how sea ice changed in the recent geologic past and why it changed and what drove that," she says.
Brigham-Grette is also working with graduate students to study microscopic fossils of organisms in sea ice and their biomarkers that may lead to further clues about past conditions, as well as provide insight into climate changes we may face later this century. "Having concrete information about natural variability may help us understand the present sensitivity of the Arctic sea ice to change."
Brigham-Grette's research on Lake El'gygytgyn has shown that "the Greenland ice sheet can come and go much more easily than we ever thought." She says the ice sheet has disappeared many times during natural warm periods and that there is an urgent need for further study. Additionally, her team has been able to link warm periods when the Greenland ice sheet disappeared to periods when the West Antarctic ice sheet also disappeared. These geologic records of warm and cold periods provide data for climate modelers to test hypotheses about expectations for present day climate change at either pole.
Some of these implications may be further investigated in collaboration with the new Northeast Climate Science Center based at UMass Amherst. Brigham-Grette says that Center work can lead to better predictions for events like this year's La Niña, which has resulted in reduced snowfall, as well as better climate communication at the local level.
Some of the most serious effects of climate change, such as a rise of a meter or more in sea level that threatens coastal locations, may not be fully realized until later in the century. This temporal shift makes it difficult for some people to comprehend why they should be worried about the issue now. "We're so geared toward four years of college, four years in an election cycle … We don't think very far ahead to see irreversible change," says Brigham-Grette,
Brigham-Grette describes herself and other geologists as "geologic time lords," like Doctor Who. Instead of a time machine, the geologists use proxies such as ice cores and sediments containing layers if information, like pages in a book, to go back and forward in time.
Meanwhile, as retreating sea ice in the Arctic is a major concern, it also presents a major opportunity for Brigham-Grette and other geologists. Now, research vessels are able to make their way in summer to areas of the Beaufort and Chukchi seas they could never reach before. Brigham-Grette sees these vessels as "ships of opportunity" for students and faculty researchers to jointly study past climate change from sediment cores from offshore on the continental shelf.
Scientists on these research vessels are also studying the effects that methane bubbling up to the surface from the sea floor will have on the atmosphere. The release of these frozen gas hydrates has also sparked the interest of the oil industry. Brigham-Grette says drilling in the National Arctic Wildlife Refuge is probably inevitable, and thus should be partnered with good science. "If we can partner more of what we do with industry and get them to appreciate and share and also gain from the knowledge we have and vice versa, then that's a win-win situation for everyone."

I was reading Mae's blog to get updated on her. I am so glad that she is enjoying her new adventure (job is a misnomer because it doesn't feel like a job to her :)) and that she now has a bit of purchasing power (congrats on the new bag and the havs! LOL!). So happy for you mars, you are truly blessed :)
Then I received an email about green tea fat burners which reminds me more of her because she is a tea-lover and would very much like to shed some of those pounds. She's the only one I know who can consume tea like it's water, LOL!
Keep us posted okay?!?

Meredith is too bullish on the economy, in my opinion, but correctly identifies the consumer who does not have access to the credit that they did.
There were four bank failures yesterday.
Also, the large institutions ARE INSOLVENT, even with all the bailout money. Like nuclear weapons, they still possess enough toxic waste debt derivatives to kill themselves many times over. Do not be fooled.

Bundesliga side 1. FC Köln have taken drastic measures after fans lit flares and stormed the pitch following the final whistle of the Rhein Derby against Borussia Mönchengladbach.

The "30 white-clad anarchists", as Bild called them, were unauthorised pitch invaders who had scaled the 10-foot high barrier out of the visitors' section, and onto the pitch, before riot police moved in – which resulted in one officer being injured.
In a statement released by the club on Monday morning, Köln announced that they had revoked the fan-club status of 'boyz', and are in the process of banning 40-known offenders from the home game against Hannover 96 at the weekend.
Lifelong Köln fan, Randall Hauk told RivalTalk in an exclusive interview: "Their actions hurt me more than did the Branimir Hrgota dive, the Granit Xhaka game-winner, or anything else. It was a huge dampener on Karneval weekend."
The German club published photographs asking for help to identify the perpetrators, which saw a quick response from fans of the club, which boasts over 70,000 members.
"The message does need to be delivered in a dramatic way that will probably be shocking and may cause unrest among the fan groups," said Hauk.
Köln's reputation as a club has been tarnished as a result of the actions from the minority of supporters following the final whistle.
Hauk added: "The image of the club reaches beyond those of us who follow German football. People may not know the result of the match or even that the Mönchengladbach-Köln rivalry exists, but they'll see those images."
The club's official statement read: "FC justifies its drastic measures because of repeated, intentional club-damaging behaviour from within the ranks of the Boyz.
"Leading members of the group were involved in the use of illegal pyrotechnic as well as pitch invasions after the final whistle at both the derby in Mönchengladbach as well as other mass organised events."
The German Football Association (DFB) have also reacted on fans' behaviour since the turn of the year. Hertha Berlin are just one from a number of clubs that have been fined due to use of pyrotechnics.

Hauk added: "Get rid of them [hooligans], and you've sent the right message to the DFL, which maybe helps mitigate fines in future instances, but you've also told the majority of the club membership and fan base that you can handle it and get back to the reason we all came in the first place: football."
There's no question that Köln have acted quick on the matter. Now German football followers can just hope other clubs follow suit should further incidents arise.

There are many emotions inspired by Chelsea's arrival in the final but, more than anything, it is sheer wonder. They refused to be cowed after John Terry's red card and deserve their place in Munich on 19 May because of the heroism that went into a night of rare achievement and glory. As triumphs in adversity go, the night they went down to 10 men and knocked out Barcelona on their own ground will take some beating.
Terry will not be in the team to play either Bayern Munich or Real Madrid in the final because of the knee he callously delivered into the back of Alexis Sánchez's legs after 36 minutes. Branislav Ivanovic, Raul Meireles and Ramires, who all received yellow cards, will also be suspended but that told only part of the story on a night when Chelsea looked for all the world like they had blown it during that eight-minute spell towards the end of the first half when Sergio Busquets and Andrés Iniesta scored either side of Terry's final, senseless act.
To recover against the most devastating attacking team on the planet, a side that have now accumulated a staggering 104 goals at the Camp Nou this season, was nothing short of extraordinary and, for Roberto Di Matteo, these are the moments when it is increasingly difficult to comprehend how he cannot be closing in on the manager's job on a permanent basis.
His was a victory sprint down the touchline that revived memories of José Mourinho's famous celebration, with Porto, at Old Trafford in 2004. Now Di Matteo may get the chance to pit himself against the former Chelsea manager courtesy of Ramires's brilliant finish just before half-time and, in the final seconds, the finest moment of Fernando Torres's time with the club, running clear to round Victor Valdés and roll the ball into an exposed goal.
Chelsea have to be commended for their spirit of togetherness. They had survived a fearsome onslaught. They tackled and they harried, they ran and they chased and when the pressure was close to intolerable they simply refused to buckle. There were moments of substantial fortune, most notably when Lionel Messi thumped a penalty against the crossbar. The same player also struck the upright and Barcelona will reflect, once again, on a plethora of missed chances. Over the two legs, they must be bewildered that it has been so complicated and, ultimately, harrowing.
Yet they came up against an inspired goalkeeper in Petr Cech and a team whose ethos was epitomised by Didier Drogba appearing in both full-back positions. Torres also slotted into defence after replacing the Ivorian on 81 minutes. Then consider that Chelsea, already without the injured David Luiz, also lost Gary Cahill throughout the opening stages with a hamstring problem.
Their supporters, on the highest rows of this vertiginous stadium, could never have imagined the team would have to play the majority of this match with a midfielder, Ramires, at right-back and two full-backs, Ivanovic and José Bosingwa, in the centre‑half positions. The Camp Nou is no place for a team with these kind of disadvantages, faced by a team that have made an art-form of picking off opponents who sit on the edge of their own penalty area.
Terry had badly let down his team-mates, felling Sánchez with no provocation, and it was difficult to sympathise regardless of the traumas he must now endure. Two minutes earlier, Isaac Cuenca had turned the ball across the penalty area for Busquets to open the scoring.
Barcelona were threatening to overwhelm their opponents and it was a complete dereliction of duty from such an experienced captain. The apology Terry later issued would have carried greater substance had he not already claimed it was an accident.
It was difficult not to fear for Chelsea at that point and even more so, seven minutes later, when another burst of short, incisive passing saw Sánchez and Messi combine to put Iniesta through to make it 2-0. Barcelona were suddenly in utter control and then, almost out of nowhere, Frank Lampard's pass had released Ramires and he was bearing down on goal. The Brazilian's finish was audacious and wonderfully executed, chipping his shot over Valdés.
Even then, the temptation was to favour Barcelona. Guardiola had started the match with three defenders and Busquets as the only classic holding midfielder. The other six players were all, in essence, attackers.
The movement, anticipation and speed was a blur and Chelsea would surely have been defeated if Messi, two minutes into the second half, had made the most of Drogba's trip on Cesc Fábregas inside the penalty area.
Messi has now failed to score in any of his eight games against Chelsea.
Barcelona have not beaten them in their last seven attempts. It was a desperate backs-to-the-wall operation and, for long spells, Barcelona's superiority was so marked the 10 men were just grateful for the breaks in play when they could catch their breath. But they survived and, in the process, reminded us why the Camp Nou was the place where "football, bloody hell" was formed.

Do You Qualify for a Free Government Cell Phone?
How much are you paying on your cell phone bill every month? If you are struggling to make ends meet and pay your monthly cell phone bill, there's a chance you don't actually have to pay for your cell phone service! Believe it or not, but there is such a thing as a free government cell phone program, and you may very well be in its target group.
This is not a scam. There are a lot of free cell phone scams out there, but this program is 100% real and offered through the government itself. Ready to learn more and learn if you qualify for this great program? Well, you have come to the right place! On this website, you will learn everything you need to know to apply for a free government cell phone and free cell phone service. We are a one stop shop to learn anything and everything you need to know about the Lifeline Assistance free government cell phone program.
Lifeline Assistance
The program is called "Lifeline Assistance." It is sometimes called "free government cell phone" or "Obama phone," though the third name is a misnomer, because the program has actually been around since the Reagan era. Back then of course it only covered landlines, but in recent years it has been expanded to cover cell phones. Lifeline is so named because a phone offers a "lifeline" to friends and family, government workers, doctors, emergency workers, potential employers, temp agencies, and others.
With Lifeline Assistance, you can get a free cell phone for your household if you qualify based on your income or your participation in a government assistance programs. You can still choose a landline if you prefer. If you qualify, you will not have to pay connection fees, and you will not be required to sign any sort of contract. You also will not have to pay a deposit on your line or monthly surcharges. You just need to get re-certified once a year.
If you do a little research online, you are likely to run into a lot of positives as well as a lot of negatives. You may find some people saying that free government cell phones are a scam, but these reviews are from people who either got rejected or applied to a fake program that had nothing to do with Lifeline. Right now there really are eight million Americans enjoying the courtesy of a free government cell phone!
Lifeline Assistance is spreading quickly all over the country, spreading even to rural areas. If you still live in a state or area without free government cell phone service, you probably can get a free landline. There is also a good chance you will be able to qualify for a free cell phone in the near future as more providers set up shop in under-served areas.
Who Pays for Lifeline Assistance?
When you apply for a free government cell phone, you receive a modern, high-quality phone absolutely free. In most states, you cannot get the latest model (that is changing in California) with all the fancy bells and whistles, but you will get a high-quality phone. The most popular type is the Kyocera Jax. On most free cell phone plans, you will receive 60 to 250 free domestic minutes per month (many of the plans at the lower end of that bracket include international minutes) as well as around 250 texts per month. Yes, that is not a ton of time, but it is still free, and may be more than sufficient for emergency needs and contact with potential employers. If you want additional minutes and texts, many companies offer you the opportunity to purchase more at a low cost (typically in the $5 to $30 range). You do not have to purchase more time if you do not wish to.
In summary, you do not pay for a free government cell phone. The money actually comes out of something called the "Universal Service Fund." This is a small fee that is tacked onto the bills of paying phone subscribers. So it is not technically taxpayers who pay for this service—it is phone subscribers only. In other words, those who can afford to pay for their cell phones pay a little extra to support those who can't.
Where Can You Get Free Government Cell Phone?
How do you get started looking for a free government cell phone, and bypass all the scams out there? The US government partners with a number of different companies throughout the country to distribute Lifeline Assistance phones and provide services. Some are regional to a few states, while others offer service in most of them. Here are some of the most popular providers:
- Assurance Wireless: This company is a Sprint subsidiary managed by Virgin Mobile. It is growing rapidly and offers service in dozens of states.
- SafeLink Wireless: This is another big company offering service in more than 30 states. It is managed by Miami-based Tracfone.
- Reachout Wireless: This company is managed by Nexus Communications and is also rapidly expanding service throughout the USA.
Your next question is probably, "What's in it for them?" The answer takes us back to the Universal Service Fund. Obviously these companies do not want to offer you something for nothing. The government reimburses them from the Universal Service Fund, so it is a low risk proposition for them. How do they actually profit? Many customers opt to add on minutes, texts and data for an additional fee. Enough customers upgrade their free government cell phone service to paid service that the companies are able to reap a profit.
All the companies mentioned above and all the other companies we recommend here on our site are compliant with government standards and requirements. Check out our summaries and reviews to find out which companies offer free government cell phone service in your area. On our site, you can compare plans and learn more about each. This will help you decide where to apply. Once you apply, your application will be evaluated, and if you qualify, you will be sent a free cell phone!
Do I Qualify?
If you are living at or close to the federal poverty level, or you are already receiving assistance through another government program (federal or state), there is a good chance you qualify for a free government cell phone! Interested in signing up or learning more? Please click the link below.

The perpetual running game genre that works so well on touch devices doesn't seem to be winding down anytime soon -- and I, for one, am very glad it keeps getting refreshed with new and unique games.
Running games are perfect for when you need to kill a little time because you can go for your high score a couple of times while waiting in line at the DMV or perhaps while riding the train, but they're not so involved that you can't put them down at a moment's notice. There are plenty of classics to explore in this category, such as Hook Worlds, Monster Dash, and many others, but I thought I would run a little comparison of old vs. new to see where the genre is headed.
This week's collection of iOS apps is all about running for your life. The first two are favorites of mine that are easy to recommend for anyone who hasn't tried the running genre before. The second two are new to the genre, and offer both good and bad new elements, but still offer the same heart-thumping action as you'll try anything to stay alive a little bit longer.
As an added bonus, every game in this collection is iOS Universal, letting you play on your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad.
Tried and true
Jetpack Joyride (Free) is an older distance game from the makers of Monster Dash and Fruit Ninja, but in this game you use a machine-gun jetpack to maneuver past obstacles and use discovered vehicles to try to survive as long as possible. The control system is incredibly simple: touch the screen to propel your jetpack.
As in Monster Dash, you play hero Barry Steakfries, but in this game you'll break into a secret laboratory to steal and use experimental jet packs. As you propel yourself through this side-scroller, you'll need to gather coins you can use between runs to buy new jetpacks, different outfits, upgrades for vehicles, and extra utilities that help you last longer. Some of the upgrades can be fairly expensive, but you can take your chances with a slot machine at the end of a game (if you gather Spin tokens floating through each level) that will add to your cash or give you bonuses you would usually buy in the store.
Part of what makes Jetpack Joyride fun are the strange vehicles you'll discover and use along the way. Along with the already interesting machine-gun jetpack that fires downward, you'll also find a Profit Bird that eats coins and requires that you flap its wings; ride a motorcycle that speeds along the ground but can jump up to grab bonuses; or use a strange machine that lets you teleport out of the way of obstacles. There are several vehicles to discover and each adds to your frantic run as you try to survive as long as possible.
To keep the game interesting, you also can gain achievements by doing various things in the game. Once you earn enough, you'll level up, which gives you even more coins to use toward new jetpacks and items.
Overall, Jetpack Joyride is a fun and addictive distance/running game that offers plenty of replay value with the countless upgrades and strange vehicles you find in each game. If you like distance games and haven't tried this classic, this is a must-have for only a buck.
Temple Run (Free) is a one of the most popular survival/escape games to date, where you play as a character who's a lot like Indiana Jones from the popular action movies. It's also the only 3D game in this collection. The simple storyline is that you've stolen a cursed golden idol, and now you need to run for your life from demon guardians through all kinds of obstacles. A little different from the other games in this collection, Temple Run gives you a 3D perspective as you run, jump, turn, and slide down pathways while grabbing coins. You'll definitely want to grab as many coins as possible; in between runs, you can buy upgrades like the coin magnet that sucks coins toward your character, or the coin value multiplier that gives you double and triple coin value the farther you run.
Temple Run is unique in the perpetual running game genre with a new level of interaction as you run. You run on 3D stone platforms, crude rock walls, and wooden walkways as you grab coins and avoid obstacles. A swipe upward makes you jump, a horizontal swipe lets you turn at intersections, and a swipe downward lets you slide under low-hanging obstacles. You also can run from side to side on a pathway by tilting your iPhone or iPad left or right--a necessary action when you need to grab coins on the side of your run and avoid broken parts of your path. The combination of all of these moves adds even more challenge because you never know what you're going to face when you go around the next turn.
Overall, with beautiful graphics, dynamic levels, unique controls, and power-ups you can buy with coins, Temple Run is an excellent addition to the survival/escape genre of video games. If you like the idea of running for your life while making quick moves to escape, Temple Run is an excellent time-waster.
Fresh and new
Gun Runner (Free) is a perpetual running game that models itself (to a certain extent) after classic arcade shooters like Contra. Using similar graphics to that old standby, in Gun Runner your job is to, well...run and gun. At first, I'll admit I was thoroughly unimpressed with the pace, and the environments and continuous 80s arcade-style music quickly got boring. But I realized after passing a certain major milestone that the game gets exponentially better. The interface for Gun Runner has you tapping on the right side of the screen to jump, and touching the upper or lower part of the left side to aim your gun.
You start off with a single-shot gun that automatically fires as you jump and double-jump over obstacles and collect coins. Gunships fly in regularly and drop soldiers that try to take you down (you can take three hits before you die) and it takes a number of shots with the single-shot gun to blow up a gunship. As you get further into the game, larger gunships show up that drop harder foes, and you'll quickly see that your beginning gun is no match for the bigger bad guys.
While testing this game, I decided to at least reach the 1,000-coin level in order to buy the next gun upgrade. I figured I might as well see if it gets any better before deciding Gun Runner was better left out of this collection. Once I got the triple shotgun, though, it was definitely worth the time spent. With the new gun you can blow up a gunship in seconds, which means you'll last much longer, gather more coins per round, and generally feel much more powerful. There are several guns you can buy, but my main issue with the game is that they're increasingly expensive and the large jumps in price mean you'll end up playing for a very long time to even be able to afford the third gun.
In the end, Gun Runner is not the best game in the category, but it gets much better once you can afford new guns and might be a good way (free) to enter the genre. Hopefully the developers will realize lowering the prices of the guns could make the game a lot more fun, but I'd still recommend you play this free title at least until you get past that 1,000-coin milestone.
Madcoaster (99 cents) is an escape game where your job is to last as long as possible as you speed along on ever-changing tracks with a five-car coaster. The interface is all swipes and touches with no onscreen buttons, with a touch to jump the coaster, a swipe up to move to an upper platform, and a swipe down to drop down to a lower platform.
Beyond the endless track-jumping action, Madcoaster offers beautiful environments, coin collecting, and other challenges that keep you interested. The game is broken up into 1,000-meter runs through environments from icy arctic zones to tropical palm-tree-populated landscapes where you'll tackle different obstacles appropriate to the environment. As you progress you can gather coins, swipe upward at the right moment to go through loops, or ram into the abundant wildlife to add to your score. You'll also grab power ups such as the Bird Magnet which attracts all the birds to you for more points, and the Jetpack that lets you blast your coaster out of harm's way in sticky situations.
Just going for distance is fun enough, but what keeps you playing Madcoaster are the objectives that, when completed, give you new coaster designs. My current objectives after playing several games are to go for a distance of 4,000 meters, hit three gorillas, and hit three penguins or pandas. All of the objectives have similarly silly requirements and trying to seek out each animal type as you zoom through the levels definitely adds to the fun. It's worth noting that the new designs don't change the gameplay, but there's a certain feeling of satisfaction when you earn them.
Madcoaster is a refreshing take on the escape game genre that will appeal to anyone who likes these types of games. The added objectives, collectables, and unlockable coaster designs make this endless escape game even better.

Thanks go out to all who have helped out so far, you've all earned your places of honor on the thanks list!
As we reported last year, Cows and Beer has been remastered and reissued as the definative version in April 2014.

This site doubles as my audio/video trading site. I traded tapes through the post in the late 1980's, up to the mid-1990's. I then retired, but was lured back by the power of the internet, and it's ability to make the trading world a much smaller, more accessible world.

Letter, J. D. Webster to James Blood
Author: Webster, J. D.
Date: October 10, 1856
From Chicago, headquarters of the National Kansas Committee, the committee's vice president wrote to authorize Blood to draw on the treasurer for $3,000 "to be expended under authority of the State Kansas Committee." The purpose was to offer "provisions" to needy free state settlers; this was to be the committee's focus, "rather than to aid emigrants to go there."

When we were camping at Edgewood we had to make several trips by the DeGray Golf course and it caught MC's eye. She asked a million questions every time we went by and I had to tell her that Mommy doesn't know much about golf at all. I told her Uncle Eric did and that fascinated her. She asked me if he might take her sometime so I told her to ask him. The very next time she saw him she asked and he set up a date to take her that Sunday to play. She was beyond excited and couldn't hardly wait the day and half she till it was Sunday.
First Ride in a Golf Cart!!!
She had a great time and can't wait to play again. On the ride home I asked her what her favorite part was and she said she liked it when Uncle Eric hit the ball in the water...both times....CRACKED ME UP!!!

This seems like the critical piece to me--more about community organization than anything else. Some of the changes that could be made and be beneficial are simple. For example, the rulers in the IDE are a simple little element that could be improved in many different ways. Anyone with moderate LC knowledge should be able to improve them, integrate contributions and so on, without requiring GIT or SVN or whatever.monte wrote:The IDE is open source and MIT licensed. Change it and share your changes how you like. The problem is the contribution and integration process. Trying to come up with a process would be the job of an integration manager which we don't appear to have for the IDE.

This 13-track self-titled debut from Emperors Of Wyoming has its roots in England, where the Proper Records UK label released it in 2009. Which is odd since this collection of Americana music is by a band whose members are based in California and Wisconsin. Spruced up with brand new mixes and additional tracks, it's only now being made available in America.
The most intriguing thing about this quartet for most people will be that Butch Vig is its drummer. He's a successful producer who has worked with Nirvana and Green Day, but Midwestern power pop fans also fondly remember Vig from his days with Spooner. Later, he performed with the more roots rock oriented Fire Town, which included vocalist-guitarist Phil Davis. Davis, along with bassist-backup vocalist Pete Anderson and his brother, lead guitarist-pedal steel guitarist Frank Anderson, are now Vig's band mates in The Emperors Of Wyoming.
Some of the tracks on this release have more in common with traditional folk music than power pop. In fact, "My Sweet Pinery Boy" is a Wisconsin River ballad from the 19th century. "I'm Your Man" and "Sweep Away" are slow and boozy looks at fractured relationships, while "Bittersweet Sound Of Goodbye" echoes some of Bob Dylan's best efforts. The more energetic (and erotic) "Avalanche Girl" is sure to click with Fire Town fans, as will the toe-tapping "Cornfield Palace" and twangy "Cruel Love Ways." A homespun take on "I Don't Know Why I Love You," originally recorded by The House Of Love, adds to the allure of this well-crafted and eclectic effort.

Behind the scenes at Mojang: the birth and abrupt end to Minecraft follow-up 0x10c
In this exclusive excerpt from his book A Year With Minecraft: Behind the Scenes at Mojang, Thomas Arnoth details the beginning and abrupt end to Notch's "difficult second album."
0x10c headlines
Notch on 0x10c cancellation: "Failure is okay."
There was always going to be a lot of pressure on the follow up to Minecraft. That game, 0x10c, has now been cancelled, and Markus 'Notch' Persson has written a new blog post about the decision.
0x10c shelved, fans to continue Minecraft creator's vision
Mincecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson has apparently cancelled 0x10c, his ambitious space sim, but a group of fans is hoping to bring it back to life.
0x10c won't be as moddable as Minecraft, sitting "on ice" at the moment
Markus Persson has said that 0x10c won't be as moddable as Minecraft as players will be using the existing system within the game instead of tinkering around with the raw code.
0x10c will "probably" have a monthly subscription, says Persson
Markus "Notch" Persson has said he and his team are kicking around ideas on how to monetize 0x10c, however, due to server costs, it will "probably" come with a monthly subscription.
0x10c: Notch working on ship editor, game not being shown at Minecon
0x10c creator Notch has revealed that he is working on a ship editor for his mind-bending space game, and has also downplayed the game's appearance at Minecon following a slip-up on Twitter.
0x10c - 1,000 codes handed out celebrating Minecraft's 8 million PC sales milestone
0x10c codes were handed out by Markus "Notch" Persson, in celebration of Minecraft reaching its 8 million sold milestone on PC. The way the codes were handed out though, was a bit tricky.
0x10c being streamed live on Twitch TV by Notch
0x10c is being streamed live on Twitch TV by Notch, who is testing out the multiplayer in his sandbox game. Watch it here.
0x10c test footage shows the seeds of multiplayer
Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson announced his new project – space sim 0x10c – just a few months ago, but already it's starting to come together. Check out this latest test footage, in which Notch throws a second character into the mix.
New 0x10c footage released, gameplay detailed
New 0x10c footage has been released by Notch, and according to the game maker, he wants the game to feel a bit like Firefly.
0x10c physics and light test footage teases Notch's new game
Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson is very quietly working away on his next project, space adventure 0x10c. It'll be a while before there's any solid gameplay to squizz at, but this video shows how the sim's lighting and physics are coming along.
Notch keen to support Oculus Rift headset
Shooting the breeze on Twitter, Mojang boss Markus "Notch" Persson has shown enthusiasm for Oculus Rift, a Kickstarter-funded VR headset which has attracted the likes of id's John Carmack and teams at Valve."Very excited about the Oculus Rift. Can't wait to start playing with it. If we get it to work with Java, 0x10c will […]
Hyperplayer Mode in 0x10c teased by Notch
Notch has teased something called Hyperplayer Mode in 0x10c, his latest title currently in development. The mode is listed above the multiplayer and single-player options in the game's title screen. The image, posted through here was tweeted by Notch along with: "Niiiice, the title screen uses the unified rendering and lighting code now!" Whatever that […]
Teaser for Notch's 0x10c space sim released
A teaser video for Notch's 0x10c space sim is below. The developer said the title is still "extremely early in development," but like with Minecraft, Mojang expects to release it early to allow the players help "shape the game as it grows." The title's cost is still undecided, but "it's likely there will be a […]
Quick shots - first look at Notch's 0x10c
Get a sneak preview of Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson's ambitious new project, 0x10c.
Mojang's new subscription space game is 0x10c
Minecraft creator Markus "Notch" Persson has revealed the title of his new subscription game – but wants players to figure out what it means.

Twitter to Tweak Brand Pages [REPORT]
Twitter's brand pages will be enhanced this year to let marketers offer "e-commerce contests and sweepstakes," according to a report.
The new pages will let app developers "build experiences on Twitter, much the way they do on Facebook," according to Advertising Age, which cites "three executives familiar with the matter." Twitter hasn't set a date on when the new pages might appear, but is telling marketers to expect them this year, the report says
Twitter reps could not be reached for comment on the report.
Twitter rolled out brand pages in December with 21 partners including American Express, Best Buy, JetBlue and Nike. The pages let marketers customize their headers to make their logo and tagline more prominent than they had been previously. The pages also let marketers control the message that visitors see when they first come to a page by promoting a tweet at the top of the brand's timeline.
The overhaul came after Google+ introduced brand pages in November. Meanwhile, Facebook last month opened up Timeline for brand pages, which let marketers tell their brand's full story and provided more customization that Facebook's previous design.

Much like SSX3, you may be doing all your rushing upon training established around a huge mountain. The particular dev downline providing the presentation additionally noted that the huge batch offer a significantly more-seamless experience, as a result of a greater loading system.The particular demonstration of the sport we all performed showcased 2 events: an organization competition in opposition to some other competitors plus a one-on-one contest versus Elise, a familiar deal with from your previous game titles in the collection. Your contests experienced almost all the time different versions in which showed off the enhanced lighting effects as well as degree of details.

Trish Sinclair (Marin) has taken over reporting duties! At the end of the first lap in the men's 5 lap race, there is a trio at the front: Christophe Dupouey, Marco Bui and Miguel Martinez. 30 seconds behind them is a group containing Filip Meirhaeghe, Bas Van Doren, Jose Hermida, Christoph Sauser, Thomas Frischknecht and Lado Fumic (plus a few others). Bart Brentjens is then on his own in 12th (40 seconds back), just ahead of Dario Cioni. Canada's Roland Green is next, in 14th place, 50 seconds down. Ryder Hesjedal is just behind, in a group of 10. Trish says that the rest of the Canadians are well back - 50's and higher. Andreas Hestler is the third Canadian, followed by Seamus McGrath.

Enterprise coders can now use an open source Web application that lets them consolidate software vulnerability data from a range of scanning and test tools. With a centralized view, and reporting and management tools, ThreadFix speeds the work needed to fix software bugs and vulnerabilities, including those in proliferating mobile apps.
The beta version of ThreadFix is available via GoogleCode, along with tutorials and a range of support information (see links below). It can be easily configured to import test and scan results from open source tools such as Bugzilla for bug tracking, and Skipfish, an active Web application security reconnaissance tool, as well as commercial products like Fortify (now part of HP), a comprehensive software security assurance system, and IBM's Rational AppScan product set.
ThreadFix has been in development for nearly two years at Denim Group, a San Antonio-based software development house that specializes in secure custom applications, and in secure application consulting services. It was developed internally to fill a gap in software shops that rely on multiple brands of security and coding tools, but often lack a single view across the development projects of the type, severity, and status of code vulnerabilities. It's being made available now, as a free, open beta release. Denim makes money on among other things, providing a range of secure software development services, including training and support.
"What we notice, is that development organizations even when they adopt comprehensive software security solutions, often do so in a 'shallow' way," says principal Dan Cornell, Denim's informally designated CTO. "For example, they may occasionally run code scans, but they're not doing it repeatedly over time. And most organizations don't standardize wholesale on a single-vendor solution: they have multiple tools, multiple languages, multiple approaches to development."
The result, Cornell says, is that software security often lacks a strategic focus, and companies can't see how their development practices are faring over time in minimizing vulnerabilities, nor how the effectiveness of those practices compare with peers in their industry segment.
Threadfix pulls data from this mix of tools, consolidates it, and lets developers and managers filter it based on a range of criteria. It also lets you, for example, export a group of SQL injection vulnerabilities to a bug tracking tool, for a team to remedy. Threadfix then picks up the updated code scan results and captures and reflects the fixed vulnerabilities.
Creating a central view of such information is critical for companies in the increasingly fast-moving world of online and mobile applications where not only enterprise data but private, confidential information of potentially millions of customers might be at risk.
Online scanning services, from companies such as Vericode and WhiteHat Security have quantified this risk, says Cornell's partner, John Dickson. "Some of the worst application vulnerabilities will last 70 to 100 days before they get patched," he says. One reason for that is that the enterprise security team, the people "who worry about software" - and the software development team - the people "who can do something about the software" - are often in separate organizations, and aren't able to coordinate effectively. ThreadFix's Web UI is intended to bridge this gap, Dickson says.
A scanning tool can come up with a long list of vulnerabilities. But ThreadFix can break the list into chunks, filtered by type of vulnerability and severity for example. Development teams can be assigned to attack a cluster of the same kind of problems, cranking out fixes more efficiently than if each one was separately assigned to a separate developer. "That sounds simple, but it's actually a huge issue between the security/vulnerabilities group and the software developers," Cornell says.
With centralized data, software and security staff can see all vulnerabilities for a given application, or across the entire software inventory; see trends to know if code vulnerabilities are becoming more or less frequent; and calculate the average time it takes to implement bug fixes, per application or per development team, for example, and see the trend over time.
ThreadFix can be downloaded at no charge from GoogleCode. You then configure user groups, such as the developers for an ecommerce application, or teams in geographical locations. With each group, you create a record for each application, and identify the scanning and tracking tools being used. You configure ThreadFix to import data from each tool, and ThreadFix collects, aggregates, and tracks this information over time. A "getting started" tutorial walks you through this initial configuration.
Denim Group also offers a how-to guide for fixing software vulnerabilities (registration required).
Awareness of security in mobile applications is especially weak, except for the financial services sector, according to the two executives. Last November, Denim announced a set of courses for its ThreadStrong e-learning system aimed at mobile applications. The new offerings are an overview of mobile app security and classes on authentication and authorization specifically for the Android and iPhone operating systems.

Encode::DoubleEncodedUTF8 - Fix double encoded UTF-8 bytes to the correct one
use Encode;
use Encode::DoubleEncodedUTF8;
my $dodgy_utf8 = "Some byte strings from the web/DB with double-encoded UTF-8 bytes";
my $fixed = decode("utf-8-de", $dodgy_utf8); # Fix it
Use this module only for testing, debugging, data recovery and working around with buggy software you can't fix.
Do not use this module in your production code just to work around bugs in the code you can fix. This module is slow, and not perfect and may break the encodings if you run against correctly encoded strings. See perlunitut for more details.
Encode::DoubleEncodedUTF8 adds a new encoding
utf-8-de and fixes double encoded utf-8 bytes found in the original bytes to the correct Unicode entity.
The double encoded utf-8 frequently happens when strings with UTF-8 flag and without are concatenated, for instance:
my $string = "L\x{e9}on"; # latin-1
my $bytes = "L\xc3\xa9on"; # utf-8
my $dodgy_utf8 = encode_utf8($string . " " . $bytes); # $bytes is now double encoded
my $fixed = decode("utf-8-de", $dodgy_utf8); # "L\x{e9}on L\x{e9}on";
See encoding::warnings for more details.

|Birthday Giveaway - AH Addict is nearly 2
I started writing here as a diary for one of my little side projects but to be honest, that didn't make for very good reading & I got very bored of writing it too so I turned to more general gold making topics. It's been an interesting couple of years, made new friends in game & on twitter, talked to lots of different people via comments here & even managed to guest on several episodes of PowerWord:Gold podcast, played AoE trivia against Rewt on Hearthcast & most recently, met Rez & Cold on Eviscerated Gaming Podcast.
It's been a fabulous ride so far, even with a few breaks here & there. I'm looking forward to many more, especially now as I seem to have hit my stride a bit & visitor numbers are climbing! I don't write just for the numbers but it does give me a boost to think so many of you visit to read. Please don't tell my old English teacher that I'm writing voluntarily though, she'll have a heart attack! I was a maths & science girl at school & my English essay homework was always my most hated & usually most delayed subject!
Anyway, down to business! What sort of competition & what are the prizes?
PrizesWell I have both an EU & US account so I'm going to be offering a pet of your choice from the Blizzard Pet Store (NOT including the Cinder Kitty) & there will be 2 winners - one from EU & one for USA.
I know it's not a superduper mega prize but 1 overall winner will be chosen from the comments here - name your new pet & the reason that makes me giggle or groan the most will win a Cinder Kitty - the newest & possibly the cutest pet in store & of course, it's a charity pet too.
How to Enter1) Starting today, retweet this post & use #AHAgiveaway = 1 entry per twitter account (I don't want to encourage tweetspamming!)
2) Leave a comment here telling me which pet you'd choose, which region (US/EU) & what will you name your pet & why? Each comment = 1 entry
3) Overall winner will be the comment that makes me giggle or groan the most! So choose your wished for pet & get your thinking caps on & you could win a Cinder Kitty. (If you want to make a naughty joke, keep it clever please, pure filth will be disqualified & deleted, no matter how much it makes me laugh!)
Choosing a WinnerI'll keep two lists (EU/US) of everyone who comments and/or retweets & allocate a number to each. Using a random number generator, I'll get 2 numbers & those will be the pet winners. The Cinder Kitty will be awarded by my choice, once I stop giggling.
Closing DateClosing date is 6am Friday 21st December GMT - that will be 5am for most of Europe & about midnight Thursday for Eastern & Mid USA.
So there you go - yet another competition/giveaway running right now. If you're on Twitter & aren't seeing loads of Cinder Kitty giveaways in your feed, you should follow some of my peeps - my feed is full of homeless Cinder Kitties right now :P But if you want a chance at some really nice prizes, pop over to Cold's Gold Factory - his 3rd birthday giveaway has TCG pets, mounts & in-game mounts as prizes.
I look forward to reading your comments - just keep it clever peeps xxx

SKorea proposes talks with NKorea on factory park
South Korea's government said Thursday that it has reached out to North Korea to discuss restarting a jointly run factory park after weeks of testy silence between the two sides.
The industrial complex in the North Korean city of Kaesong, just north of the Demilitarized Zone dividing the two Koreas, has been shut since a political showdown in April.
As South Korea held military exercises with the U.S. not far from the border, North Korea pulled its 53,000 workers in protest. South Korea then ordered its managers to leave as well, against their wishes.
The closing of Kaesong, the centerpiece of joint projects hatched during a previous era of warming ties between the wartime foes, dealt a symbolic blow to reconciliation efforts between the divided Koreas. The project, which facilitated nearly $2 billion a year in cross-border trade, had been the last joint project left as relations soured over the past five years.
The closure also meant a loss of salary for tens of thousands of North Korean workers employed in factories run by 123 South Korean companies, and a loss of goods and orders for business managers who relied on Kaesong to churn out everything from shoes and watches to cables and electrical components.
On Thursday, South Korea said it proposed holding working-level talks with North Korean officials in the truce village of Panmunjom inside the DMZ.
Seoul wants to set the grounds for discussions on restarting the idled factory park, as well as ways to manage the facilities and goods that South Korean businesses left behind. South Korea proposed holding talks Saturday and said it would send three delegates, the Unification Ministry said.
There was no immediate response from Pyongyang.
However, on Wednesday, North Korea responded to a plea from South Korean business managers seeking to visit Kaesong to move their goods and equipment out of the park. North Korea also answered South Korea's call through the communication line at Panmunjom. The two Koreas last used the communication line in June.
The business managers specializing in machinery and electronics production at Kaesong said they want to move their gear out due to worries of damage from the July rainy season, the South Korean government said.
Pyongyang previously had refused the South Koreans permission to cross the border into Kaesong to check on their idled factories.
In a statement, the representatives of the South Korean companies shut out of Kaesong said they hope that the working-level talks would be held successfully. They said they asking the two governments to approve a visit to North Korea on Tuesday.
The two Koreas had tried last month to hold talks on Kaesong and other stalled projects at Mount Kumgang on North Korea's east coast. The talks in Seoul would have been the first senior-level meeting in years. But the plans broke down over a protocol issue.
The Korean Peninsula has remained in a technical state of war since 1953, when Korean War foes signed an armistice to end three years of fighting.
