CNET Editors' review
This overly complicated text editor doesn't offer any cutting-edge features and isn't very user-friendly. SmEdit's elementary interface offers a string of icons for basic text-editing tools that are easily understandable. Less clear are the five labeled only with Roman numerals or the three with Run followed by a letter of the alphabet. Noticeably missing is a print button. The online help file cleared up some of these mysteries: the three alpha buttons launch user-designated text files and can be set up through Options. The file also explained that additional options are offered on a context menu, and a print option was found there. However, the help file didn't offer an adequate explanation for using the numbered icons. The complexities involved with setting up and using this program didn't seem warranted by its features or functionality, and users of all levels can easily find a more intuitive and effective text-editing program.Publisher's Description
From ACAPsoft:

"unique text editor that have been using for 4 years"
Version: SmEdit 1.17
I have tested lots of text editors (notepad replacements etc.pp.) and stuck with smedit despite it's optical shortcomings (use the skin!). program is very stable. it has great features like configurable auto-save and text overwrite protection.
- message windows have nonstandard yes/no inversion (but you get used to it).
- you might need to read in the (well written) help file
- ugly icon
- scroll bar has small display glitch
- interprogram cut and paste loses formatting sometimesSummary
one of the unique features is the ability to prevent accidental deletion of text. not even hitting tab (as might happen when multitasking) while some text is selected will delete the selected text with this option.
the program is highy configurable but still very slim.
the auther has always responded to requests and even added new features that I requested.
one of the few programs I actually felt I should pay for because support was so good.
dont let you be deterred by the imho rather ugly homepage.

Dunk Contest gives Evans, others chance to make name for themselves
Feb 25, 2012, 9:50 AM EST
There is no Blake Griffin. No Dwight Howard. Not even a Nate Robinson.
The NBA's All-Star Saturday Night Dunk Contest is a showcase event this year filled with a bunch of names that had casual fans saying, "who is that?"
But for Jeremy Evans, it's a chance.
Evans is a human pogo stick — the first chance I really got to see the Jazz's second-year player was at the Impact Series in Las Vegas last summer and his athleticism had everyone on media row scrambling to find out more about the guy. He was impressive. His dunks and leaping ability have made him a favorite among due-hard Jazz fans.
But he's lost in the Utah Jazz's system, a structured team that may not fit his skill set. He's played in just 16 games for the Jazz and averaged 5.6 minutes in those and scored 1.7 points. He's not exactly a household name. Even in Utah.
Evans contract is up at the end of this season (the Jazz could offer a $1 million qualifying offer so they could match any other team's offer). Evans needs to get other teams to notice him if he is going to last in the NBA, and the Dunk Contest is a chance to do that, he said.
"This is getting my name out there," Evans said. "Not only are the fans watching, but coaches, everybody's watching."
It's sort of the same for the other contestants, although Evans is the most extreme example.
Derrick Williams is was the No. 2 overall pick in the last draft out of Arizona, but he is far from the most celebrated rookie on his own team (Ricky Rubio gets that honor).
Chase Budinger is one of the better jumpers in the league and he is playing about 20 minutes a night for the Rockets, but he and his 8 points per game get lost in the Rockets system. The Rockets can (and likely will) pick up his $850,000 option for next season, but then he is a free agent who needs to get noticed.
Paul George is in his second year and is trying to break out as an emerging star on a good Pacers team and is averaging 12.1 points per game.
So while fans are watching the introductions tonight saying, "who?" the players will be seeing their chance to make a name for themselves, catch the eye or a GM or team and maybe give themselves a little security in the coming years in the NBA.
You knew this was coming: Carmelo Anthony denies report he has decided to leave Knicks
Dec 5, 2013, 12:43 PM EST
Anybody who tells you they know what Carmelo Anthony is going to do this summer is selling you something. And it's something that doesn't smell good. But we are going to be inundated with this stuff between now and July 1, when Anthony likely will become a free agent. The latest was ESPN personality Stephen…
Indiana Pacers center Roy Hibbert posted this before the Pacers game Wednesday night. I'd say he should get that looked at, but my guess is the Pacers' trainer Josh Corbeil is not blind. If this were anything serious Hibbert wouldn't be out there. And Hibbert said it didn't hurt — he shot 6-of-9 from the…
Kevin Durant did it in a movie nobody really saw (Thunderstruck). Michael Jordan did it with cartoon characters (Space Jam). Shaquille O'Neal did it… poorly (Kazam).

With the Nets off to a 5-13 start in the East, there is a lot of finger pointing going on. Losing does that.

Dec 4, 2013, 9:01 PM EST
Gerald Henderson of the Bobcats became the latest player to be warned for violating the league's anti-flopping rule on Wednesday, and there's little doubt that his dive against the Mavericks on Tuesday was worthy of its distinction.

Otto Porter close to making Wizards debut, Thursday practice key
Dec 4, 2013, 5:14 PM EST
The Washington Wizards have gone 7-3 in their last 10 and have moved into the No. 3 seed in the East (at 9-9, but still the three seed) all without having the No. 3 pick in the last draft Otto Porter, who was supposed to be the starting three on this team. But they could…
When TNT worked with the NBA to set up its Thursday showcase schedule, this Thursday seemed like a ratings spike — the defending Atlantic Division champion Knicks with Carmelo Anthony against the new Kidd on the block in the Brooklyn Nets.

Nate Robinson shot lefty free throws after injuring right wrist Tuesday (VIDEO)
Dec 4, 2013, 2:28 PM EST

Voracious Transformation Of A Common Natural Resource Into Productive Capital
I analyze a power struggle where competing factions have "private" financial assets and deplete a "common" stock of natural resources with no private property rights. I obtain a feedback Nash equilibrium to the dynamic common-pool problem and obtain political variants of the Hotelling depletion rule and the Hartwick saving rule. Resource prices and depletion occur too fast, so substitution away from resources to capital occurs too fast and the saving rate is too high. The power struggle boosts output, but depresses sustainable consumption. Genuine saving is nevertheless zero in a fractionalized society. World Bank estimates may be too optimistic.

Paul beats Robertson's steal record
NEW ORLEANS -- New Orleans' Chris Paul set an NBA record with a steal in his 106th straight regular-season game Wednesday night.
Paul broke Alvin Robertson's mark set between November 1985 and December 1986. Robertson was playing for San Antonio when he set the previous mark of 105, which Paul tied Tuesday night in Memphis.
Paul broke the record when he stole the ball from San Antonio's Tony Parker with 3:43 left in the second quarter. The crowd immediately recognized the record and stood in applause.
"It's just something that he does. He has great anticipation and the biggest thing is he's always around that ball somewhere, a lot like Alvin when he played," said Hornets coach Byron Scott, who was playing for the Los Angeles Lakers when Robertson set the previous record. "Chris is the same way. Guys think they got layups and then all of a sudden, here he comes. So, that's an amazing record."
Michael Jordan had the third-longest streak in that category, swiping the ball in 77 consecutive regular-season games from March of 1988 to March of 1989.
Paul's streak began on April 13, 2007, when the Hornets, still displaced by Hurricane Katrina, hosted the Denver Nuggets in Oklahoma City. It nearly came to an end last Jan. 23, when he didn't make his first steal in a game against Portland until 3:12 remained in the fourth quarter.
"He's been such a good player, offensively, and when that happens, I think most fans and people recognize that about players," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said before the game. "They look at what people score, but very few players get credit for what they do at the other end of the floor also, especially if they're good offensively. So [the streak] brings attention to what he does at the other end of the floor and I think that's great because he deserves credit for it."

When we got to Venice, "afloat on the placid sea," as Twain put it, we discovered that current guidebooks, despite magnificent graphics and pictures, often could not match Twain's prose. As he fell under the city's spell, his sarcasm subsided: His complaint about the "caterwauling" of the gondolier on a "rusty old canoe" became an ode to the sight of marble reflected on glittering waves, "soft and dreamy and beautiful," as he took his readers from palace to gondola and back.
During our visit to the Ducal Palace and its Bridge of Sighs by St. Mark's Square, it was as if Twain took us by the hand and led us through, much better than any modern audio tour could. Even his political analysis chillingly conjured the Doges' cruel rule and the hopeless fate of prisoners from centuries ago: "The doomed man was marched down a hall and out at a door-way into the covered Bridge of Sighs, through it and into the dungeon and unto his death."
Later, at St. Mark's Cathedral, Twain re-emerged as a cynic, siding with my family against me in giving the building the thumbs down. I thought it awe-inspiring but Twain only found "unlovely Byzantine architecture" filled with "coarse mosaics."
There was one thing left before our trip was over: Not to find another of Twain's places, but instead to experience the ambience that permeates the book, that of voluptuous luxury travel in a foreign land where riches may be enjoyed away from the masses. For all the author's notes about the squalor, filth and ruins he encountered on his tours, there were just as many descriptions of parties where champagne flowed.
Being many rungs below the caste of the super-rich, sampling that lifestyle proved somewhat of a challenge in the 21st century. Yet we found it in between Florence and Venice when we landed for a day in the provincial town of Ferrara. It was off the beaten track, and had all the advantages that go with that. Our hotel, Annunziata, was as affordable as it was sumptuous, with by far the best breakfast bounty of local produce we ever found in Italy, and beyond. As it was, rock stars from the British band Kasabian were lounging on its terrace beneath the medieval Castello Estense, and were even up for a chat. A stone's throw away was the marble-clad duomo and several museums, with nary a tourist in sight.
Off went the kids, Clara and Corneel, into the evening for Kasabian's open-air concert. My wife Reine and I lazed through the streets and a park before settling among the locals with prosecco to watch the sun turn a deeper shade of gold. Over an excellent yet simple pasta dinner served al fresco in an alley alongside the cathedral, we felt we had become Twain's "innocents abroad."
Would he have mocked us, or joined us? We didn't care.

President Obama meets with tragic Moore family in Staten Island - VIDEO
Also singles out Irish American hero cop Lieutenant Kevin Gallagher
President Obama met with Damian and Glenda Moore during his visit to Staten Island yesterday to survey Hurricane Sandy damage. The Moores lost their two sons Brandon and Connor Moore, aged 4 and 2, who died after being swept away in Hurricane Sandy.
Their mother Glenda was forced to flee her stalled car on Staten Islandduring the hurricane and sought refuge in a nearby house where she was refused entry.
Soon after, her kids were swept away and were found 30 hours later in a nearby swamp.
Damian Moore, a native of Donegal, and a sanitation worker who had been called in to work during the hurricane, and his wife were singled out for their bravery by the president.
He also praised Irish American cop Lieutenant Kevin Gallagher who stayed with the family during their dreadful ordeal as their kids were missing.
Read more news on Hurricane Sandy here
"I had the opportunity to give some hugs and communicate thoughts and prayers to the Moore family," Obama said about Damien and Glenda Moore.
"They lost two young sons during the course of this tragedy. And obviously, I expressed to them, as a father, as a parent, my heartbreak over what they went through. And they're still obviously a little shell-shocked."
He said the Moores singled out Lieutenant Gallagher for particular praise. "For staying with them and doing everything he could so that ultimately, they knew what had happened with the boys, and were able to recover their bodies, and has been with them as a source of support ever since.
"That's not in the job description of Lieutenant Gallagher. He did that because that's what so many of our first responders do," he added.
"I'm very proud of you, New York," said the president, "you guys are tough."
Gallagher, 46,is head of District Attorney Daniel Donovan's NYPD detective squad. He is a 24-year veteran of the police force and has earned 64 police medals during his career.

- 15 Jul 2013
- 21 days post
At first, I had trouble finding the right doctor; however, doing research and asking close friends I knew Dr. Edelstein was the right doctor for me. The recovery was better than expected. I was able to resume back to my normal activities within 3 or 4 days. I was mostly scared about the pain, but Dr. Edelstein's "bloodless" method ensured that the pain would be minimal, and it was! It has been only 3 weeks and they are setting in place. I had a condition called "Tuberous Breasts" known as "Snoopy Boobs"; I knew the surgical approach would fix this issue and make my breasts look normal. Now I feel proportionate and more confident than I ever felt before. He is a perfectionist which is extremely important to me! My breasts are symmetrical and proportionate to my body type. He answered all of my questions and concerns before the surgery. My new pair now feel a part of me. I am very glad that I chose Dr. Edelstein as my surgeon. I highly recommend him to those seeking breast augmentation.
Great review?

How exactly do they come up with Ohio's unemployment rate?
- Rick Rouan
- Staff reporter- Business First
- Email | Google+ | Twitter
Ohio's unemployment rate fell in April to its lowest level since October 2008, but fewer people are actually working.
Wait, what?
The logical conclusion is that the labor force got smaller, meaning fewer people are looking for work. Not so, at least this month, said Ben Johnson. In fact, the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services spokesman said the labor force grew.
The state each month releases myriad data on the state's employment picture. The data include the number who don't have jobs, and the number of people who are working. But those figures come from two different surveys — one of households and the other of businesses' payrolls – that can paint different employment pictures and potentially lead to some faulty conclusions.
For example, April's unemployment rate was 7.4 percent, down from 7.5 percent in March. Those numbers are derived primarily from a phone survey of a sample of households conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, which asks whether people are working, Johnson said. The number of unemployed Ohioans — 431,000 in April compared with 438,000 in March — comes from that same survey, as does the unemployment rate.
A survey of business payrolls is used to find the number of employed Ohio workers, Johnson said. That survey showed that the employed numbered 5,137,900 in April, down 3,400 from 5,141,300 in March. The business survey also is used to determine which industries gained or lost jobs in the month.
Without knowing those data come from two different surveys, seeing a shrinking unemployment rate while fewer people are working suggests that the labor force got smaller – the typical explanation in that case. But the total civilian labor force (those working and those looking for work) actually grew, albeit slightly, to 5,811,000 from 5,805,000 in March, Johnson said. That data primarily come from the phone survey that the U.S. Census Bureau conducts.

All right everybody. I've got to admit, I'm frustrated.
I'm frustrated every time I'm deep in Drupal code, and I come across an issue where Google sends me to an unanswered question in a Drupal forum. I'm frustrated when somebody asks me the best way to learn Drupal and I have to tell them that the resources are pretty sparse unless you get paid training and books. I'm frustrated when I search for an error message in quotation marks, only to find 3 results linking to comments in issue queues of modules I don't use. Really? Drupal powers 2% of the web. I KNOW that I'm not the only person who has seen this issue before.
So that's why I'm talking to you, a relatively unknown, unassuming Drupal developer. Maybe you do Drupal during the day, and come home too exhausted to think about Drupal anymore. Or maybe you're spending your nights and weekends trying to beef up your Drupal skills, since nobody will pay you to do it during the day. If you're anything like me, you don't have hundreds of core patches, you haven't been working with Drupal since version 4.6 and you haven't spoken at Drupalcon.
I'm not talking to the webchicks or the eatons. I'm talking to you, who feel like your small contributions don't make much of a difference because they languish in obscurity. You with that contributed module that's only being used by a handful of sites. And you, with a Drupal.org account, and no contributed projects at all. I'm especially talking to you.
Because here's the thing. You and I live and breathe and love open source and we love the open web. We love phrases like "the sum of all human knowledge" and thinking about how a kid in Africa or India could potentially get on a computer and educate himself out of poverty. But then when it comes to the work we're doing, we're getting challenged on all fronts and we can't find the answers we're looking for without trying to figure out how IRC works. That vision hits reality and breaks down in a big way.
If you're like me, then most of the knowledge you've gained about Drupal comes from solving problems the hard way. It's come by var_dump-ing monstrous arrays to your screen over and over, just so you can see what is going on. It's from chasing down one function after another as you get deeper and deeper into something you don't understand. It's from that very first white screen of death, which brought everything to a screeching halt, and you tried in vain to remember what changes you made last (Version control? What's version control?).
The abstractions in Drupal make it tough to ask the right questions. My first slideshow in Drupal was a joke, because I didn't know that I when I was looking for slideshows, I was supposed to be looking for nodequeues, views, and the jQuery cycle plugin. How was I supposed to know that a single image being displayed in a slider was supposed to be built with a view. Views were for making lists. This doesn't look like a list.
We can't keep relying on people verbally passing down knowledge about the right module combinations to use in obscure IRC conversations, or in closed discussions at work. That's the old way. It's like 200 years ago, when all the knowledge was held in the universities, and you had to pay to get in so those people could tell you how the world worked. That doesn't scale, and it's not how knowledge will be distributed in the future.
At least somewhere along the way, you felt that you were doing it wrong, and you were right. I was doing it wrong too. I'm still doing it wrong. I know that because I always find myself working around Drupal in a certain way, only to have a friend or co-worker show me a much better way to do things. "Oh, you should use dpm()." Say, what? The most recent revelation was the "examples" module. Where was this 8 months ago? How was I supposed to know this was here?
I KNOW there are things that I'm still doing wrong, but nobody's ever showed me the right way. Unfortunately, I don't know what I don't know, so until I do, I'm still going to continue doing it wrong.
That's why it's so important that you take that thing that you just figured out, copy and paste it into a body field, and click publish. There are probably a lot of reasons why you haven't done this already. Reasons like deciding whether you have the time to maintain your own blog, or not feeling good enough about your design chops to make it look the way you want. Reasons like, "nobody's going to read it," or you're "not a writer," or your spelling is bad, or you want to, but can't seem to get around to it.
And I'll be honest, you're right. You are not a writer, and your spelling IS bad, you'll hardly have anybody reading it, but that doesn't matter, because every time you click publish you're telling the world that here, in the Drupal community, we give whatever we can offer to make our community stronger. It doesn't have to be perfect. It doesn't even have to be good. Are you a coder? Just copy-paste that code in into a body field, add a sentence that says what problem you solved and click publish. Are you a site-builder. Just write "How to ____________" at the top of the page and post a series of screenshots. Start there, and don't worry about posting garbage, because most of the stuff on the internet is garbage and at least your garbage is well intentioned. You let Google worry about identifying how your garbage is useful, and bringing it to the person who needs it. They're getting better at it every day.
We need more voices, and we need more diverse voices. We need voices from the southern hemisphere. We need voices that worry that their English isn't good enough. We need the voices of people just starting out and feeling slow and stupid. You just learned where the logout button was? Cool. Tell us about it. You made a mistake and blew up your site? Bummer. Tell us about it. Whatever you're working on, I want you to tell us about it because if you get in the habit of telling us about it, then that habit will pay dividends over time and everybody will benefit together.
And if you find that it's taking too long to write it out, then stop trying to write really well, and start writing with your own voice. It won't sound perfect, but that's ok. This isn't a research paper. It's a good thing too, because nobody likes reading research papers.
Again, don't worry about readers, but if that's important to you, just know that it's pretty easy to get on the Drupal planet blogroll (shockingly easy… like way easier than getting project maintainer status). Don't feel guilty that you're not adding it to "the docs." Yes, it's great to contribute to the Drupal docs, but you don't always have the time or energy to find the most relevant documentation page, write your contribution out clearly, and post with confidence. And don't worry about the design for your blog. I contributed a blogging theme for developers, so you can use that if you want. Or just use Bartik. Or Drupal Gardens. Heck, use Wordpress. I don't care. Use anything… just use something.
We're at a time in Drupal when we desperately need to help each other. Drupal 8's coming fast, and people are starting to port their modules. API's are still shifting and documentation's thin. We've got projects being forked and a lot of unanswered questions. All the while, Drupal's reputation is getting stronger as it's used for bigger and better projects across many industries. We're going to get through this and come out stronger on the other side, but we need your help. Together, we can show that Drupal isn't just a pile of code, but a community of people of all who love to learn and want to share their knowledge and experiences. Not just their code.
Those three categories are comprehesive, because when I hit your site I'm always looking for something. Sometimes I don't know what it is. Sometimes I'm looking to satisfy my curiosity. Sometimes, all I'm looking for is something, anything, to distract me from what I ought to be doing. But I'm looking for something.
If your visitors can't find what they're looking for, you can adjust your content to better fit your existing audience, or work towards directing a more appropriate audience to your pages. You should probably be doing a bit of both.
On one end you have the polished experience that smartly behaves to give users what they want. On the other end you have a completely customizable experience, allowing you to define what you want. This is the classic iOS vs Android argument.
There are tradeoffs for each choice, so while some have said that exposing customizable features is lazy and irresponsible, I'd argue that it really depends on your audience. Raspberry Pi isn't "smart" because it isn't designed to serve a specific use case. That's intentional, and it's a model that works fantastic for it's audience.
Your application, whether it's an email client, RSS reader, or mobile app, lies somewhere on this spectrum of smart vs customizable. Is your current position the result of accident or an intentional choice?
I heard these words at an event last Saturday, but I didn't raise my hand. I had all sorts of excuses. I wasn't prepared. It was an unfamiliar situation. I was recovering from sickness. I hadn't slept much the night before. The list goes on
Now, instead of excuses, I have regrets. I regret missing an opportunity to be generous. I regret that I couldn't push past that hint of fear that was holding me and everybody else back.
So now, before I even get in to the next volunteer situation, I'm deciding that I'll raise my hand. That way the decision's already made before the excuses arrive. Sounds good in theory, but we'll see how it goes.
Nothing is quite so repulsive as a big ego, but deep in our hearts we all have one. It's that soft, fleshy spot that we protect with our walls of excuses, justifications, and blame. We blame circumstances, we blame people, we blame anything and everything to protect that ego. Even criminals who plead guilty for their crimes defend their hearts, blaming their upbringing, drugs, or other situational factors.
We've all felt the defensiveness ramp up as soon as you get called out on something. You could defend the silliest little thing if your ego is on the line. There are miles of online comment threads of people exchanging withering responses, desperate trying to make themselves look big and their opponent look small. It takes incredible strength to resist that urge and let it fizzle out.
Humility hurts, but it's important to teach yourself that it's ok when to be wrong, and it's ok to publicly say "I was wrong." That kind of attitude encourages openness and growth, rather than resistance and pride.

From author Gregory Godek, we take a look at a few things that he suggests that men or women should consider if they are in a relationship and want or need to improve the situation.
Not really just for men, but my perspective is from a male point of view, so the bias is natural.
We should all take a look at the suggestions and like anything else take the good, leave the rest, but it will be fun and informative..
