SMF Development > Next SMF Discussion
My SMF 3.0 Dream
1 Yup.
2 Yup.
3 We have already decided to support jQuery as using a pre-existing library makes a lot of sense, and jQ is the de facto standard these days.
4 Yup.
@Oldies: I realise menu edits are easy for us. "Oh, all you have to do is delve into the depths of Sources and edit a complex PHP array. Make sure to get your syntax right or you'll crash your whole site. Have a nice day."
It's not the way to go if you really want to support a broad user base. Most people are not coders and do not want to be coders. They don't feel they have the time to learn coding on top of everything else in their lives. If you want to enable them to run their own forum, you should be making it easy for them.
5 Makes a certain amount of sense.
6 Ditto. Never been a fan of lots of profile fields anyway. Just a few basic ones would do me.
7 Bit of a toss up on whether to keep it as core or not. Not sure at the moment.
8 I agree that permissions need an overhaul.
9 Definitely.
10 I'm all for reducing http requests, and I often merge custom js files and css files when doing custom work anyway. The one exception would be jQuery itself, as calling that from Google CDN makes the most sense since a lot of people will already have that cached. To my mind, the best way of handling jQ would be to call from Google by default, with a fallback to the forum's own copy if the Google file happens to be unavailable for some reason.
11 Never use notifications anyway, so am personally ambivalent about the whole thing.
12 Ditto. I'd probably want an off switch for that one.
13 Definitely. IE6 is only going to be minimally supported. Same for IE7. IOW, we'll probably do a quick check to make sure critical functionality is still operational, but we wont care what it looks like.
14 Yup, or it should come with a separate mobile version (which is probably better, really).
15 Yup.
16 Would keep the post page, but have an option of bare bones or advanced quick reply for those who want it.
17 Yup.
18 Not in favour of pretty url's by default.
19 The plan is to keep it without a sidebar. Anyone who wants extra blocks can install a portal.
20 Not a bad idea.
21 Will be using mainly png, but possibly SVG for some things. PNG's are very light if used sensibly (often lighter than gif).
22 Speaking for myself, I would happily scrap karma and not replace it with anything.
23 I'll leave that one to the back end boffins. Me do templates n css. :P
24 So you want fewer profile fields but more stuff in profile? Ok. How does that work? :D
25. Sounds like a good idea.
26 Would be fine with that.
27 Same as notifications. Couldn't care less, so will see what others think.
28 Not sure I'd use it myself, and it does complicate an already complex system, but I can see the sense in the idea.
29 Probably better as a mod. Certainly not something I'd prioritise for core.
30 Already been over that. :)
31 Yes. Menu manager and file uploads are obvious places for this too.
32 I'd like it myself, and will probably add custom code for it so staff can use such a function, but not a good idea for general use/inclusion in core.
33 Makes sense.
34 Ditto.
Help Forums Evolve!
--- Quote ---1.| There should be an option to display a topic as an "article", "page", "file", "thread", or "blog". Really if you think about it, the only different between the four is HOW the information is displayed. Selecting between the five options merely changes which template can be used to display that information.
Membergroup permissions determine what type can be used, along with what code such as BBC, HTML, or PHP. An example of default restrictions would be Page & PHP is allowed by the admin only.
If your wondering what "file" type is, then it's nothing more than taking a post with an attachment and display to look like a item download page. All the information is there, it's just a manner of how to display it.
It would also make it easier to make an add-on for it. Someone might want a custom "reviews" add-on, that mainly just displays the information within the post to look like a review page.
--- End quote ---
Interesting thoughts, but offhand I'm inclined to think that this is where portals start to make sense as they allow similar things already. Not entirely sure it makes sense for a forum core module.
--- Quote ---2.| All content of any type can all be found within the forum. No need for separate sections. Actions(such as the calendar) show even be allowed to placed into a forum category. So there should be an option for every action to do this or not(Google doesn't like redirects). Either way though, everything that a forum has, should have an option be able to be found within the forum itself, including the member base. The forum index should be the sitemap!
--- End quote ---
Not sure how well that would actually work.
--- Quote ---3.| I'm not for third party support, but I think people should be able to login and post using their Facebook, Twitter, OpenID, Yahoo, Live, and Google login's without registering or creating a profile.
--- End quote ---
Meh, with the obvious exception of OpenID (even though hardly anyone uses it AFAICT).
All of them would be nice to add for SMF 3.0. though I highly doubt most of them will ever make it.
(curiously its a similar wishlist of what I like ViennaBBS to be - except JQuery, Mootools is my choice. But def. the options to show topics as "types" is a "must")
Regarding the option to send attachments in PM, while I agree with what people have said, I'd like to think it is nice to be able to send files to each other. The reason I say this is because people might not want their email address to be public to anyone.
One example this option could prove beneficial would be in a forum such as this one where members might want to send coding scripts to mod/theme creators for review or editing.
However, I do agree that it can cause some legality issue regarding its contents ...
send scripts using the CODE tag....
Even if attachments in PM was ever included, it would definitely be turned OFF on a forum like this one.
I personally do not see a need for PM attachments. There are plenty of sites available for sharing whatever it is you'd need to share via PM without having to allow attachments (Pastebin for code; Image Shack, Photobucket and many other sites for images; Pipe Bytes, Dropbox, etc. for files).
The other problem with PM attachments is that we'd have to include a way for admins to manage them just like regular attachments, only with a bit more functionality since the files would be shared between specific members instead of posted in the forum where the admin can see them. We have always been against allowing admins to view their members PMs, and it would be difficult to properly handle PM attachments without allowing admins to view the PMs.

Pros and Cons of Transmission Coolers : Agree or Disagree?
I've been thinking of hooking up a transmission cooler to my Traverse and I just got off the phone with a manager at one of the local transmission shops and he said that it was my truck and my money and he'll put in whatever I want, but he wanted to steer people away from a transmission cooler for several reasons.
- First, they tend to leak and if a line blows from the extra pressure created from towing, then you're in a whole new world of hurt on the side of the road.
- Second, it's a cheap substitute for proper cooling like getting the factory towing package and cooling systems.
- Third, most of the stuff that is made for these types of transmission coolers are junk and they have cheap aluminum fins that break and/or bend easily.
- Last, they just don't work all that well. Waste of money compared to the risk of being stranded and/or frying your transmission.

Steve liked this post06-12-2013, 06:39 PM #3I off-road a ton and my transmission was exceeding 225+ degrees on a regular basis. My favorite trails are very aggressive, long and/or steep inclines, with many obstacles, and I have yet to damage or spring a leak in my after market cooler. Now, my tranny temp rarely breaks 170 degrees when off-roading, even on the hottest days. My personal opinion is that my transmission is taking a lot less abuse (thus will last much longer) and if my tranny cooler does fail, I'd rather replace that than my transmission.
Side note though, and that is I replaced my stock tranny cooler with a much larger after-market one....I did not just add a cooler.

One thing I forgot to ask, at what temp does your tranny run under a load? It sounds like you are considering this for towing purposes?

Steve liked this post06-12-2013, 06:43 PM #4Steve, I installed a True Cool 40K "Aftermarket"Transmission Cooler, to replace.....The Factory(Small)Transmission Cooler, which is part of the Z82 Factory Tow Package.
....When Towing my Transmission Temps with the Factory Transmission Cooler were around 180, 190 and at times just over 200 degrees, and I was Not Comfortable having my Transmission running at these Temps.......even tho these Temp's are with-in the range expressed in the Owner's Manual.
....As I and Most of guys Know, the Biggest Killer of Auto Transmission's is.....HEAT!!!.....and Now when Towing with the 40K Cooler.....My Transmission Temps have Never Gone over 150 Degree's.
....Next month will be 2-Years since I Installed this 40K Cooler, and over this time, I have Not 1 Problem and/or Issue with this Aftermarket Transmission Cooler or the Trans. lines........it has been Without Question, The Best Mod/Swap I've Done to help with Keeping my Transmission Temps Down when Towing my Boat.
....I'm guessing that are thousand's of Guys, who have Installed this 40K Transmission Cooler, and I Don't Know of and/or have Heard of anyone having Problems or Issue's with this Aftermarket "True Cool 40K Transmission Cooler"......for My Truck, this Transmission Cooler has been Worth Every Penny I payed for it.
Edit:.....I should Mention, that the Aftermarket 40K Transmission Cooler, is 2-1/2 Times Larger than the Factory Transmission Cooler.Last edited by 99'HEARTBEAT; 06-13-2013 at 11:25 AM. Reason: Added Infor.

Ok, good feedback. Let's keep the conversations coming in here.
06-12-2013, 08:00 PM #7I am planning to add the Tru-cool cooler, but as @mfleetwood and @99'HEARTBEAT stated the cooler is/was replacing an already factory installed transmission cooler. Maybe that has something to do with it? You could pose that question to him.

I would love to hear more from people who have had good experiences and those who have had bad experiences. Also, if you have an aftermarket unit, what did you get and how many trouble-free miles do you have on it? Also, what did it cost to get installed?

All my vehicles have a Trucook 40K trans cooler.
I route the lines to the cooler and not the factory radiator.. see way too many factory radiator coolers leak and fill the trans with coolant and fills the engine with ATF haha its a bad mess to clean up.
I have ~135,000 miles on my transmission cooler on my turbo silverado. Trans temps stay under 140* even in this 100* weather in Mississippi.
My Z71 Tahoe would sit ~190-200* on our Loops around the farm hog hunting. Trucook 40 drops them down to 150* which helps a ton.-Jonathan

DSade was kind enough to send me some GlycoMyx to try out. I wanted to post up my experience with it.
My workouts are Olympic-lifting based, 2-a-days, 4-5 days a week. I usually focus on one lift, then do some assistance work for it. Workouts last at most an hour, generally more like 45 min. Evening workouts have been kicking my ass lately. Lately I haven't been using any carbs during my workouts, just an EAA+BCAA blend, so I tend to run out of steam pretty quickly. I was hoping that this stuff would help out.
I wasn't sure how big one dose was, so I guesstimated it was around 40g (turns out it's 50g - no biggy). I took half a dose prior to lifting. It really seemed to help out, as it definitely did seem to allow me to workout a good bit longer. I've used things like Gatorade, WMS, Supercarb, etc. during my workouts... if I were to compare this to other carb sources, I'd say the energy I got from it was "smoother" (longer lasting with no weird crashes or spikes in blood sugar).
It does have a taste, but it's pretty bland. Someone said it tasted earthy - I think that's a good assessment. It's pretty mild. Really, it tastes like sweet potato, but without the sweetness. It also seems a bit thick, and I can taste something fibrous in it, but it didn't weigh down my stomach at all.
I mixed another half dose into my PWO shake, with a scoop of Lemon Cream Pie UP2.0 and two scoops of a plain protein powder. Really good. I can't even detect the GlycoMyx in it. It gave my shake an interesting purple hue.

The numbers are in from the Missouri Department of Conservation's 2012 study of fish populations at Mozingo Lake.
Just a glance at the report shows that it's good news for anglers.
Numbers of large fish are up for several popular game species.
Through electrofishing, MDC field technicians caught, measured and evaluated the lake's fish population. The study was managed by Tory Mason, the agency's area fisheries management biologist.
Results compared numbers of "quality size" fish with smaller "stock size" fish.
Below is a breakdown for game fish at Mozingo. The numbers include the Proportional Stock Density (PSD) and the Relative Stock Density (RSD). The RSD is calculated as a ratio of quality sized fish to stock size fish and represents the number of larger fish compared to stock size.
Trophy largemouth bass were up from 2011. Out of a sample of 113 fish caught in one hour, the RSD of fish 18 inches or more was 10, the RSD for fish 15 inches or more was 44, and the PSD was 75.
Mozingo's limit for largemouth bass is six fish per day, and fish between 12 and 15 inches must be released.
Perch numbers for all sizes are increasing also.
Of 260 fish caught, four percent were more than eight inches long.
Thirty-four percent were six inches or longer.
In addition, white crappie populations have soared in the 1,000-acre impoundment.
The RSD of fish over 12 inches has grown from 2.76 in 2011 to 11.48 in 2012. The RSD number for fish between 10 and 12 inches long has decreased from 85 to 68, while the PSD number of fish more than eight inches long has grown slightly.
Black crappie populations are up as well. From 2009-2011, the MDC did not catch any over 12 inches, but in 2012, the RSD rose to two.
Black crappie sized 10-12 inches have increased from an RSD of 18 to 56 since last year, and the PSD of stock-sized fish grew from 87 to 98.
The daily limit on crappie at Mozingo is 20.
Walleye fishing at Mozingo is growing in popularity, and the MDS report held good news for anglers who bait their hooks for this exciting game fish.
The walleye population increased dramatically between 2007 and 2010, but saw a drop in 2011. Numbers are back up for 2012, with an increase in RSD from 2.86 to 3.23 for fish 26 inches inches and up.
RSD for walleye ranging between 18 and 25 inches saw the biggest increase, from 66.5 in 2011 to 93.55 this year. The PSD of stock-sized fish stayed roughly the same.
The MDC report shows far better numbers at Mozingo than for other lakes in the area and affirms word-of-mouth reports that the lake provides some of the best fishing in Northwest Missouri.
Matt Oltman and his son Keston reeled in a good catch late last week after working the north end of the lake. The Oltmans usually fish at Bilby Ranch or Nodaway Lake but decided to give Mozingo a try.
Page 2 of 2 - "The fishing is way better than it has been," Oltman said. "Usually we don't catch much out here, but we had a pretty good day today. I've heard the same from other people too."
Grant Evans, Mozingo Lake Park manager, is pleased with the results of efforts by his staff and MDC to boost fish numbers.
"It looks like the fishery is outstanding," Evans said. "The credit goes to the diligence of Tory [Mason] and the MDC."
Initiatives to improve the lake environment include placing felled trees and planting native water willow along the banks to slow erosion.
Evans and Mason are hoping the water willow will also compete with invasive colonies of Eurasian watermilfoil that have become prevalent in several coves.
Since the impoundment's completion in the mid-1990's, the lake has grown roughly 10 acres due to bank erosion. Evans said that erosion is not yet a pressing concern, but that preventive action is needed.
"It's been an ongoing problem for years," Evans said. "It's not critical at this point, but we really do not want it to get there."
Along with water willow and brush, the Mozingo staff also plans to plant locust and hedge trees along windward banks.
These fast-growing trees have large, strong root systems that hold banks together and reduce wave energy.
Though there is some concern with the trees and water willows interfering with bank fishing, Mason assures that it is the lesser of two evils.
"Bank loss is going to happen, it happens everywhere," Mason said.
"This is a preemptive measure. It may affect fishing a little bit, but it's better than losing the bank."
Implementation of this plan may seem daunting considering Mozingo's miles of shoreline, but Evans and Mason won't have to do it alone.
A number of community groups and fishing clubs have volunteered to help in the project, including the Maryville High School football team.
"It's nice to have so much support from the community," Evans said. "I look forward to fostering more efforts like this in the future. I think that with the cooperative effort between the MDC, lake staff and the community, we can accomplish a lot more in the future."

The streaking Pittsburgh Penguins could get Evgeni Malkin back soon but could lose Kris Letang again. According to Renaud Lavoie of RDS, centre Evgeni Malkin, who was placed on injured reserve Sunday, retroactive to March 10, with an upper body injury, is expected to be back in the lineup soon. However, defenceman Kris Letang has suffered a broken toe. Letang was placed on injured reserve on Monday but activated in time for Tuesday's game against the Montreal Canadiens, prompting the demotion of defenceman Simon Despres. Should Letang be placed back on injured reserve, Depres would be called back up. Goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury, meanwhile, is battling a sore neck. Details should emerge later on Wednesday whether or not the injury will force him to miss any time.
Report: Letang has broken foot, Fleury battling sore neck

According to a new report it has quite the imaginations for spending your money this is a shrimp.
Exercising on a treadmill.
Market you know how much we spend on this research much 500000.
Dollars as a -- every -- -- -- very -- I got out our tapestry of that guy's in good shape and that is just one project.
By David Williams president taxpayers' protection alliance with -- -- David good morning to you -- -- -- senator Tom Coburn prevent this report right.
Yeah it's shrimp on treadmills.
We found -- he found rather that the foundation the National Science Foundation right.
Spent one point five million dollars.
To create a robot -- fold laundry in the and it just went and took the robot 45 minutes before the singled out.
Well it takes me 26 minutes to pull the single topic.
I -- I actually didn't appreciate last might mean and that not even tell by my wrinkled shirt but I did quandary and my question is the shrimp.
They have little water bottles a little towels so after they get off the tread the -- they can.
I don't like kind of what's the benefit in the end -- but here's one for 80000 dollars on a study.
On why the same teams always dominate March Madness is -- really I don't priority bill.
I think that that's -- taxpayers are frustrated that's why they're confused because you have members -- congress talking about the debt ceiling talking about spending cuts.
All these deficit commission that are coming out of left and right well guess what.
Look at one agency one point two billion dollars and at -- point seven billion that's going on spent this is this is easy this is low hanging fruit.
What you're saying it's ridiculous even if we did not have the deficit we're in right now fourteen point three truly absolutely they'll have -- been -- -- the conference -- he says he's a practicing physician.

He sees the benefits of the National Science Foundation.
And the scientific research they've done but he's just pointing things that he thinks are just unnecessary why don't -- let's find the big -- let's fund the big science and not the small science and I'm really getting back to disrupt research.
But the federal government is access with -- They spent a hundred million dollars over the last decade or two or shrimp aquaculture in Arizona of all places so for some reason why this this.
To make a bigger and better -- and it's it's really corporal well offer when you get down to it because businesses benefit from that not the taxpayers.
You ever study baby names.
While National Science Foundation spent a million dollars while being a single guy you know I've ever studied baby -- heart and analysis for how quickly parents respond to trendy baby names.
David can you explain that.
It really can't I was named after King David but I don't know how to people respond to that most evident -- that -- that at.
Though the single guy I have not looked debating it my whole life so it's an issue that I don't know anything about well what what when we look at studies like these you know where we're laughing about this but I get there are a lot of people watching that segment were -- That -- now and and this is why this would happen in November happen because people are frustrated and they don't care which Republican or Democrat this wanna get these bums out and bring in a new crop and see if they can make a difference so.
This is edit -- they learned a lot with the bridge to nowhere but if you yell loud enough you can effect some change and we saw that November so.
Politicians better -- -- out and it's amazing only one member of congress doctor Coburn.
Has come out with this I would love to see other members -- congress really stick it to the National Science Foundation.
And make sure they get audited and make sure this money is spent wisely in the future David thanks for coming and -- Williams there.
From Washington they do good work you know cancer research alzheimer's research felt so good the baby names.

There's a moment at Christmas gatherings, usually as the first wave of escapees each has one boot on at the door, when someone's aunt wails, "Wait, I have to get a Christmas picture with everyone!" Groans, sighs and last-second teenage pleas for individuality burst like soggy confetti, while pets are disrespectfully yanked from their warm and danced-in couch depressions. Forestalling the freedom flight out into the remote-started, bucket-seat womb, the family photo exposes a lack of portrait enthusiasm; the left-on winter gear underlines it.
Carving a tunnel into a river bank that once held a landfill. Managing wildlife that must criss-cross the river valley during four years of construction. Preserving rare plants while building a bridge. The construction of a new LRT crossing in the river valley will be a complicated task.
High winds and flurries are bringing a chill to Edmonton and causing a slow commute Monday morning. The blowing snow and slippery roads are being offset by mild temperatures that are bringing some relief to the city after days of blistering cold.

BASEBALL UPDATE: Today's game has been rained out and will be made up tomorrow (Saturday) as part of a doubleheader with the first pitch scheduled for 12:30 p.m. (MDT).
The Aggie baseball and softball teams are back in action this weekend in WAC play. The No. 23 ranked Aggie baseball team is in Sacramento for four games, the first three count towards the conference standings while the fourth is a standalone non-conference affair. "It was a way for us to pick up another game to help fill out our schedule," said Coach Ward when he explained the non-conference game against Sacramento. "It was purely a financial thing. We're already there, we've already spent the money to get there and we can stay over one more night and play an extra game to give us a full schedule."
It's actually not the first time the Aggies have faced a conference opponent in a non-conference game during the season. The Aggies did it back in 2008 facing Fresno State in the Bulldogs' home tournament, a meeting which the Aggies won.
Sacramento State was the surprise of the opening weekend in league. Picked to finish seventh by the coaches, the Hornets went to Ruston and won the series 2-1 winning the final two games of the series. The first game of that series the Hornets led 3-0 and 5-2 before giving up a five-run inning and falling 7-5. The Hornets defeated their in-state rival UC-Davis 11-4 earlier this week.
The Aggies won't be the first Top 25 team that Sacramento State has faced this season. The Hornets played three against then No. 24 UCLA losing all three but keeping it close the Bruins in the first two games losing 5-2 and 6-2.
Clearly the Hornets are feeling good about themselves and rightly so. The Aggies will need to play at or near the top of their games this weekend to win the series. The Aggies need to get better production out of their starters this weekend than they did against Nevada. It's a bit of a bounce back weekend for the Aggie starting pitching in that regard.
The Aggie softball team hosts Nevada in a crucial three game series. The Aggies are fighting for their postseason lives but enter tonight's game with a bit of renewed confidence after breaking out of a bit of an offensive funk in a 9-1 run-rule victory over the Lobos on Tuesday night. The Aggies put together an eight run inning in which 13 Aggie batters stepped to the plate and every single Aggie either recorded a hit or came around to score.
The Wolf Pack are coming off a two-game split with UTEP yesterday and are 14-27 on the season but 4-5 in league play with their four wins coming against Fresno State (1), Utah State (2) and San Jose State (1). Nevada defeated San Jose State 1-0 but lost the other two games in run-rule fashion, 11-2 and 10-0.
Nevada sophomore pitcher Karlyn Jones appears to be pitching the best for the Wolf Pack right now. She's 6-4 this season in 24 appearances with six starts. Jones has been the Wolf Pack's best pitcher of late picking up three wins in the past couple of weeks including the 1-0 victory over San Jose State and yesterday's 9-2 win over UTEP in the nightcap. The Aggies will likely face Jones tomorrow and senior Mallary Darby tonight. Darby is 6-12 on the season with 24 appearances and 20 starts and has a team leading 3.34 ERA.
Today's game is scheduled for a 6:00 p.m. first pitch. Tonight's game will be broadcast on KSNM AM 570 with streaming audio available via Aggie Access.

LaCie unveils its first USB 3.0 RAID drive
If you are looking for a superfast USB 3.0 external hard drive with redundancy data protection, there's now another option. Following in the footsteps of Sans Digital, LaCie announced Tuesday its own version of a USB 3.0-based external hard drive with RAID support: the LaCie 2big USB 3.0.
The company says that the new drive is available in up to a 4TB capacity and comes with two separate internal hard drives. These hard drives can be set up either in RAID 0 for fast speed and maximum amount of storage (with no data protection) or RAID … Read more
Get a 2TB external hard drive for $99.99
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a first.
Not so long ago, finding a 1-terabyte external hard drive for less than $100 was a big deal. Today, a 2-terabyte drive has broken that same barrier.
Woot spinoff site Moofi has a SimpleDrive 2TB Turbo USB hard drive for $99.99, plus $5 for shipping. This is a new drive, not a refurb, and it comes with a very impressive 3-year warranty.
The SimpleDrive is, well, simple, a basic black mini-monolith that can sit flat or stand upright. As an aesthetic bonus, it comes in a curvy case, not some boring flat … Read more

LaCie intros new USB 3.0-powered external drives
Lacie dropped two new USB 3.0-powered external hard drives Wednesday--a high-speed 3.0 update to the CNET-favored Rikiki and the sexy aluminum Minimus USB 3.0 desktop hard drive. Both externals are wrapped in brushed aluminum that protects the drive from scratches and light spills and also serves to dissipate heat from the drive while in use.
The two devices are compatible with Mac and PC OS and each comes bundled with 10GB of free Wuala storage in the cloud, making it easy to share files with coworkers and friends. And don't stress if your system isn't fitted with the latest USB 3.0 connection--the drives are also backward-compatible with version 2.0.
The LaCie Rikiki 3.0 will come in 500GB and 1TB capacities, but the LaCie Web site only has the 500GB in stock for $100, just $15 more than the 500GB Rikiki USB 2.0. Alternatively, the LaCie lists the 1TB Minimus USB 3.0 for $130. Both drives are available now.

IoSafe SoloPro: Serious external storage gets speed
IoSafe released on Wednesday a new member of its family of disaster-proof external hard drives, the IoSafe SoloPro.

For comparison, the Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Desk, one of the biggest conventional desktop single-volume external hard drives, weighs about 2 pounds.
All the extra weight in the SoloPro comes from layers of protective materials, which are designed to keep it safe from potential fire and … Read more

Poor hamstring flexibility puts your body at risk and can lead to debilitating back injuries. If the elasticity of the hamstrings is not sufficient, the problem will likely work its way up the kinetic chain, causing more problems and causing vulnerability in your spine.
The kinetic chain is essentially the relationship of various body parts and how they work together to create movement. For example, if you need to bend over and pick something up off of the ground your hamstrings need to be able to stretch. If they are not flexible enough, your body needs to adjust in order to get the object from the floor. Maybe you twist your torso to get closer to the ground, maybe you squat to eliminate the need for hamstring flexibility, or maybe you bend at your back. This final possibility is known as spinal flexion and too much of this will lead to spinal injuries.
Once the hamstrings reach their maximal length, the next thing to change is the pelvis. The pelvis is the bone at your hips and it can tilt in two ways, posteriorly and anteriorly. When lifting off of the ground, you want to maintain an anterior pelvic tilt. This is when the top of the pelvis is tilted forward. This will allow your lumbar spine (the lower section of your spine) to stay in its natural curvature.
The spine has four natural curves. The cervical curvature is at the top of the spine and bends towards the front of your body. The thoracic curvature, at the middle of your back, bends towards your back. Similarly, the lumbar curvature and sacral curvatures bend to the front and back respectively.
If your pelvis creates a posterior pelvic tilt during a lift then it will take your lumbar spine out of its natural form and into spinal flexion. Too much spinal flexion will improperly distribute weight onto your intervertebral discs. When standing, the pressure on your spinal discs equates to 100PSIs. When sitting slouched you create up to 175PSIs of pressure, but when you try to lift a twenty-five pound box off of the ground with too much spinal flexion, you create over 400PSIs of pressure.
This enormous amount of pressure can create injuries such as bulging, ruptured or even degenerative discs. Aside from disc injuries, muscular strains and ligament sprains also increase in possibility when spinal flexion is too great.
A simple test to see if you are at risk for these problems as a result of poor hamstring elasticity would be to stand up, keep your legs straight and touch your toes. Make a mental note of how far down you could go. Then bend down and touch your toes while only hip hinging. Hip hinging is only bending at your hips, or using your hips as a hinge like on a door. While hip hinging, focus on pushing your butt backwards. Most likely, you will not be able to go nearly as far on the hip hinge as you were on the first try. This is because you eliminate the possibility of spinal flexion thus decreasing your total range of motion.
No matter your range of flexibility in your hamstrings, continue to work at its flexibility to maintain and ensure minimal risk of back problems as a result of poor hamstring flexibility.

One thought on "Skype brings you Warner's music as ringtones"
lodevermeiren said 8 years ago
I'm sorry, but I don't get why anyone would pay 1 euro for a 30 second ringtone for a mobile phone, and certainly not for Skype, when you can buy the full song for 0,99 euro (or $) at iTunes.
Being able to customize the sound of an application (which I can do with almost every other IM/VOIP app for free) isn't worth 1 € to me, nor is an avatar picture (of which there are also millions for free on the web).What am I missing?

FROM the moment this office opened for business last December, I felt I could not write about what had been published in the paper before my arrival. Once I stepped into the past, I reasoned, I might never find my way back to the present.
Early this month, though, convinced that my territory includes what doesn't appear in the paper as well as what does, I began to look into a question arising from the past that weighs heavily on the present: Why had The Times failed to revisit its own coverage of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction? To anyone who read the paper between September 2002 and June 2003, the impression that Saddam Hussein possessed, or was acquiring, a frightening arsenal of W.M.D. seemed unmistakable. Except, of course, it appears to have been mistaken. On Tuesday, May 18, I told executive editor Bill Keller I would be writing today about The Times's responsibility to address the subject. He told me that an internal examination was already under way; we then proceeded independently and did not discuss it further. The results of The Times's own examination appeared in last Wednesday's paper, and can be found online at nytimes.com/critique.

iPhone's marimba halts New York Philharmonic
Because people are sadly imperfect, cell phones ring at the most inopportune times.
It happens in the movies. It happens in the opera. Rarely, though, does the art come to a halt because of a recalcitrant marimba.
And yet MSNBC intones with the tale of an iPhone that rang, kept on ringing and interfered so much with Mahler's Ninth Symphony that the conductor downed his baton and the fiddlers dropped their bows.

Ian Delaney, a UK journalist who blogs about Web 2.0 over at twopointouch.com, alerted me to a fine piece of analysis conducted by the BBC's Robin Hammon, who has looked into this topic in some detail.

Online measurement company Hitwise has run a comparison of search terms associated with Yahoo!, MSN and Google in the US and UK, highlighting some differences in consumers' attitudes to the three portals on different sides of the Atlantic.
The study found that US consumers, for example, largely associate MSN with its portal content while in the UK, the brand is better known for communications tools Messenger and Hotmail.

There comes a time in every startup's life when you ask whether your bright idea will be stolen / pillaged / destroyed by a much larger 800–pound gorilla – where all you have effectively done is illustrate the potential of a market, enough at least for the gorilla to decide that he wants to eat, shoot and then possibly leave.

I was given an iPod as a birthday gift a couple of years ago. Immediately, I fell in love with it, and it revolutionised my listening habits. It looks good, it is easy to use, and my particular model stored 5,000 songs, about half of my CD-based music collection.
But my love affair quickly turned sour. Over time, I have experienced various problems with the iPod and iTunes, some of which are listed after the jump.

Wow, what a week for customer services. First we had the now-infamous Vincent Ferrari call to AOL. Then we noticed a press release on E-consultancy that painted a bleak picture of online customer services among retail companies.
Vince wanted to cancel his account and having heard "the nightmare stories" decided to record his phone call to AOL Member Services. Some 21 frustrating minutes later he finally managed to achieve his goal… not entirely helpful.
International fame followed after the AOL tape went viral – the combination of Digg and the New York Times channelled 700,000 visitors to Vince's site in rapid succession, forcing him to temporarily remove the recording (still offline).
If you didn't hear it you can watch him being interviewed about his AOL experience on TV via YouTube – the interview has excerpts from the cancellation call. Too funny, unless you're an AOL executive...
