First Look at Clueless – The Game!
Being a huge fan of this movie, I jumped at the chance to play and review it. I started it last night and I have to say there are parts of it that I love and parts i don't… so far. Firstly, the game took a long time to load, during which I was treated to a fun (for a while) song… almost two times through. But the background and overall look was very girly (a good thing for me), and pretty true to the flick. All of the favorite characters show their faces from the movie, and I have to say, they did a great job with most of the resemblances. The game takes players through the plot of the movie attempting to introduce new styles, while teaching how to put together the right fashion looks from Beachwear to Formalwear to Beverly Hills Preppy and some in between.

First Look: Ghostbusters
While at NYCC I was able to stop by the Atari booth to check out one of the next big games that I'm anticipating: Ghostbusters. As someone who grew up watching the movies, the cartoons and pretending to be the Ghostbusters, this game hits a soft spot with me. [i]Ghostbusters: The Videogame[/i]'s storyline was written by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, and has been confirmed to basically be Ghostbusters III. The events in the game occur two years after Ghostbusters II in 1991 where you play the new recruit who is responsible to test out Egon Spengler and Ray Stantz's new equipment during a recent surge in paranormal activity.[img align=right width=300]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v33/kalika_jayde/blog%20post%20images/360ghostbusters.jpg[/img] One interesting thing that I really like is that there is a big difference in game between the 360/PS3/PC version and the Wii version because a different developer, Red Fly, is taking the reins for Wii which saves WiiRead more →
Kirby Superstars Ultra Review
Platform: Nintendo DS ERSB: E Genre: Action Number of Players: 1-4 Developer: Nintendo Release Date: September 22, 2008 Go Pink or go Home: Kirby Superstar's Ultra Rent I have a soft spot for that loveable pink puff. I always have since I played Kirby's Dreamland for my very first gaming system, the Gameboy. (Though I did not know he was pink) As time progressed, as so did my Nintendo systems, I always got excited to pick up the new Kirby game. Now, after playing a number of Kirby games for the NDS, I am excited to see the remake of the SNES game, Kirby Superstars Ultra come to the smaller screen. Shall I be impressed or will I find that maybe some Kirby games are best left in the past? Graphics: What always gets me with Kirby games is the simplicity of it all. The game stays true to itRead more →By netzach in DS No comments yet
Mr Biscuits Case of the Ocean Pearl Review
Platform: PC ERSB: Unrated Genre: iWin calls it a Hidden Object Game- I would say its a "Where's Waldo" type of game Number of Players: 1 Publisher: iWin Exclusive Release Date: 12/18/2008 Official Website Pass Mr Biscuits: The Case of the Ocean Pearl is part detective story and part find the object. You play as a detective being led through the story by Mr Biscuit, the canine companion of the late Mrs Cambridge, a passanger about the Ocean Pearl cruise ship. It reminded me of the back of Highlites magazine at the dentist's office when I was a child. In each chapter, you are given a list of things to find in different areas of the Ocen Pearl Cruise Shop. When you find an item, the idea is to click on it with your mouse. Each level unlocks clues to solving the murder. You have to find various hidden objectsRead more →By GamergirlSB in PC No comments yet
Hell's Kitchen Review
Platform: DS ERSB: E for Everyone Genre: Time Management Number of Players: 1 player Publisher: Ubisoft Release Date: Sept 11, 2008 Official Website Pass Yukino Survives Hell's Kitchen Play your way through five grueling weeks under the watchful eye of Gordon Ramsay to become a 5-Star Chef. Balance your time between managing the dining room and perfecting your dishes in the kitchen to keep Ramsay happy. Graphics: For a DS title, there is so much more that could have been done in this department. While Ramsay looming over you on the top screen is pretty life-like, your dining room patrons and waiter are too tiny. There a very few frames of animation in regards to the patrons eating, and your waiter vanishes and appears to wherever you point him instead of actually walking through the area. In the kitchen, your work station is very basic. Instead of chopping vegetables, pouringRead more →By Yukino in DS 1 Comment »
Hanging out with SouthPeak Games at NYCC!
While I was at NYCC, I was also able to stop by and check out the games at SouthPeak Studio's booth! They had a great mix of games available to play on all major platforms: X-Blades (Xbox 360/PS3/PC), Velvet Assassin (Xbox 360/PS3/PC), and Roogoo Twisted Towers (Wii). [img align=left width=300]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v33/kalika_jayde/blog%20post%20images/VelvetAssassin_NYCC_1.jpg[/img]The first game I was able to get hands on with, as well as talk to the developer about is Velvet Assassin. This game is a WWII era story actually based off of the life of British secret agent VioletteSzabo . Players of Velvet Assassin play as Violette Summer who is deep behind enemy lines with no kind of support from the British government. Because of this you will need to use strategy and a lot of stealth in order to accomplish your objectives. There are a number of different and gruesome ways for you to assassinate your enemies using theRead more →
EA at NYCC
While I was at New York Comic Con, I was able to stop by the EA booth to check out some of their new games. I was very excited to see what they have in store for us this year! EA had a good range of games on display to try out. The first one that I played with was [i]Spore Galactic Adventures[/i] which is the first expansion for [i]Spore[/i]. In this game you are able to leave your spaceship and beam down to your planet, as well as new ones and earn rewards for completing adventures. You can also build objects and create adventures for other people to play through as well! The construction of your world and creation of adventures seems fairly straight forward. You can build adventures as a single objective, or make them several acts long to form a chain of quests. You will be ableRead more →
Killzone 2 demo
The Killzone 2 demo came out this week for people that pre-ordered the game or for anyone that won a code online. Unfortunately we didn't have any codes to giveaway, so I hit up a friend Bernie who had obtained a code. [gtrailer]44238[/gtrailer] After having the code for two days, I was able to set aside some time to play. The download took forever when it finished I jumped in right away. First mistake I made was to make the controls too sensitive. I'm not the best shooter player at when the camera is too sensitive, my aim is all over the place. The demo starts out as one campaign and one difficulty. You end up having a rough landing with your squad then run out to take out the Helghast threat. The graphics in-game are great. The menu system does this weird glitchy thing that made me nauseous. ButRead more →By GamingAngel in PS3 No comments yet
X-Men Origins: Wolverine
Last night I was able to go hands on with a demo for [i]X-Men Origins: Wolverine[/i], and I think we may have ourselves a good standalone Wolverine game! This game, developed by Raven Software, is based on the same storyline that the upcoming Wolverine movie is about. It will take place before and after Wolverine gets his adamantium skeleton. I went through what seemed to be the walkthrough stage that took place in a jungle setting. The controls were pretty easy to pick up, and the action on screen was fantastic. I battled through soldiers equipped with guns and swords through the jungle and some random ruins. It felt a little linear, and I couldn't really go off into the jungle, but this was the tutorial stage so I'm hoping that you're able to go into the environments more. There is also a good level of interactivity with the environment.Read more →
I was recently able to get hands on with [Prototype] developed by Radical Entertainment. The game takes place in a sandbox type environment with you playing Alex, who is trying to regain his memories after waking up on an autopsy table. Alex has superhuman strength, speed, agility, durability and healing as well as the abilities of consuming his fallen enemies and being able to shapeshift. Alex can morph into the likeness of someone whom he has consumed, or as I experienced, can change his hands into bladed weapons or stone fists. The object of the game is to sneak in and infiltrate and destroy on both the military or the mass of infected people that now roam parts of New York City, while trying to gain back your own memories. I thought the controls were smooth and easy to pick up the basics of. There are more sophisticated moves forRead more →By stealthyslyth in Xbox 360 1 Comment »

I have hit the jackpot!
No, I am not talking about Powerball or Mega-millions, if I had won either of those I don't think there would be any reason to carry on with SQL as a career! Just sayin'
Anyway, in an attempt to break down, track down or map out the evil of Nested Views, I came across a 4 year old post, titled Detangling Nested Views from @JenniferMcCown, 1/2 of the @MidnightDBA team.
This nifty little script, provides exactly what I need to show "the powers that be" how convoluted some nested views can be. Armed with this and SEVERAL execution plans, I hope I can convince my bosses to allow me to restrict some access around here!
Thank you Jennifer McCown!
Hostile Takeover
Last night, I had the privilege of presenting to the Baton Rouge SQL Server User Group (@BRSSUG). This was my 2nd time presenting to the group and I hope it was as informational as it was enjoyable for me.
The Nuts and Bolts of the presentation
The whole premise of the presentation was to outline and layout what to do when you are given a SQL Server to manage. In some cases you may "discover" a new SQL Instance on your network and not have access to it. I presented one method of gaining access through what I call a "hidden door".
I am a big supporter (even though I don't do it as often as I should) of documentation! Knowledge is Power and as our friendly neighborhood Spiderman would say "With great power comes great responsibility".
What type of information do you need to collect and document on? I explained several bits of information that I gather on a regular basis and gave several tips and demonstrated some wonderful scripts from people much smarter than I am on how to collect this information. I have been using these scripts in "My SQL Toolbox" for a long time.
Here is the slide-deck I used last night with all the links to the various tools of "people smarter than me" that I use on a regular basis.
Hostile Takeover
On September 10th, I will be presenting at the Baton Rouge SQL Server Users Group (@BRSSUG) on a topic that is near and dear to me.
Since becoming the DBA at Woman's Hospital a year ago, I have used these techniques and processes almost every day in taking "ownership" of over 90 SQL Server instances. After a year, I still have some instances I have to "deal with"; but I am using these steps to implement my "Hostile takeover"!
I will be discussing my tips, processes and SQL tools I use to gather as much information about the SQL Server instances that I have now become administrator.
I will upload my slide deck after the presentation and will give a debriefing here.
BTW, this is my 2nd time presenting to the User Group, maybe next time I will update my SQL Jeopardy and we can play again!
Well, it is official!
I have been asked, I agreed, and my topic has been accepted.
I am the September Presenter at the Baton Rouge SQL Server User Group meeting!
Hostile Takeover
–A SQL Server instance was just handed to you to manage. OK, great, now what? What are the logical steps and/or best practices in taking over the management of a SQL Server instance.
I will provide more info on my presentation after I present it.
Thank the SQL Gods!
Microsoft has listened to the out cry of SQL DBAs everywhere!
New service packs will be released for SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 R2 extending it's lifecycle for another 12 months!
I am not sure about you but I for one am happy. That give me more time to plan!
SQL CoPilot–A Software Review
As the only DBA in a 24 x7, mission critical shop (I work in a hospital) managing over 60 instances of SQL Server ranging from version 8 to 11; I am ALWAYS on the lookout for Software that will help me manage instances. Heck, who am I kidding. I want a cheap piece of software (since I have NO software budget to speak of) that tells me what I need to know when I need to know it and be able to present it to the "powers that be" so I can argue for more RAM, more CPU cycles and more SAN space. And that is exactly what SQL CoPilot does for me as well as many other things.
SQL CoPilot is not really a "program" in the traditional sense of the word. It does not get installed, it does not run a windows service and it doesn't require a bunch of resources on target servers. So how does it work? To be perfectly honest, I am not sure. But because it is not compatible with SQL 2000, I can only assume it uses DMV and DMF to determine all the information it needs. Because SQL 2005 and later are designed to return DMV and DMF results quickly, the response time for CoPilot is amazing, even with heavily used machines.
So what can the program do for you? Just read this "About Page" to see what all information is presented to you in a quick and efficient manner. This is a snap shot of the main page. It's interface is VERY intuitive and simple to understand. All of the "snap shot" squares found in the "Big Picture" are navigable to a page with detailed information.
The information presented for databases is very detailed and very informative.
And the best part? If you just want a snap shot or a quick glance at your instances, then try out the SQL CoPilot Free Edition, but I promise you, after a week of using SQL CoPilot you will want to buy a full license. You will want to see the additional features: like unused indexes, duplicate indexes, index fragmentation and all sort of other "goodies". I know I did! And for only $120 per licensed USER (that's right USER, not instance) it is the best bargain out there. Many 3rd party software that provides this type of information charges hundred's of dollars per instance monitored.
As much as I have praised SQL CoPilot, for me, there are some downsides. It doesn't work with SQL 2000. But hey, I may be the only schmuck who is still using it in production. I doubt it, but at least I have fewer instances to really dig up the details on because of SQL CoPilot.
SQL CoPilot does not have a method of "capturing" the data it collects for baseline measurements or historical information. This is not a monitoring tool with a historical repository, but it is so close to that it makes me want more. Maybe just a simple button to say, "snap shot it" and it would record all the information for that view in a pre-determined repository database somewhere.
All in all, this product is well worth the $120 purchase price! Give the Free Version a try and I would be willing to bet you a cup of coffee that within a month you will pay for the full version!
Merry Christmas
8 Weeks of Indexes: Types of Indexes
This is the 3rd post in a series entitled "8 Weeks of Indexes". The purpose of this series was more for me to learn more about indexes.
There are many types of indexes used in Microsoft SQL. I could easily use up the remainder of my weekly posts to discuss each one in depth, but in order to actually get to the meat and bones of how to use indexes, this post is an overview of the more commonly used indexes.
Each Edition of MS SQL from 2005 and up, continues to add types of index to the engine. SQL 2005 had a total of 7 types of indexes, SQL 2008 added 1 additional type, SQL 2012 has a total of 10 types of indexes and SQL 2014 lists 12 types of different indexes.
My personal experiences with index usage unfortunately has been limited to numbers 1-6 for SQL 2005. I currently do not manage any data store with spatial data, so I haven't had a need to use that one. I am really excited about experimenting with Filtered Indexes any I do not (yet) have a SQL 2012 server in production, so I have not looked at the two new added indexes.
Here is the break down of each type of index by SQL Engine. Highlighted indexes are new to that specific edition.
- Clustered – based on a column or multiple columns, this index determines the physical sort order of how the data is physically written to the data base. A clustered index for a phone book would be on "Last Name"
- Non-clustered – can be created on any column or multiple columns in addition to a Clustered index. this index create a "pointer" to find what row data is located on. If you wanted to know all the "Robert"s in a phone book, you could create a Non-Clustered index on First Name column.
- Unique – this ensures that either a clustered or non-clustered indexes key does not have duplicate values.
- Index with included columns – extends the functionality of non-clustered indexes to include "non-key" items in the index.
- Indexed Views – a unique way to present structured, indexed data in a view rather than a table. can use Non-Clustered as well, but only after a Clustered index was created.
- Full-text – a special type of index used exclusively with the Microsoft Full-Text Engine to facilitate word searches within data columns.
- XML – a way to index XML data type columns
SQL 2008 and 2008 R2
- Clustered
- Non-Clustered
- Unique
- Index with included columns
- Full-Text
- Spatial – provides the ability to index "spatial data" in a column of geometry data type.
- Filtered—provides a way to filter out unnecessary rows of a commonly used subset of data
- Clustered
- Non-Clustered
- Unique
- Column store – based on vertical partitioning of the data by columns
- Index with included columns
- Index on computed columns – an index on a column that is derived of one or more columns
- Filtered
- Spatial
- Full-Text
- Hash – an index that provides data through an in-memory hash table
- memory-optimized nonclustered indexes – used in the new feature of "in memory optimized tables"
- Clustered
- Non-clustered
- Unique
- Column store
- Index with Included columns
- Index on computed columns
- Filtered
- Spatial
- Full-Text
8 Weeks of Indexes: What is an Index?
First and foremost, I am a slacker! It takes discipline to write a weekly blog, I am not sure how some people can do it daily! However, I hope to get back on track for this series.
Merriam-Webster defines index as:
a list … arranged usually in alphabetical order of some specified datum
One of the most common real world examples of an Index is your telephone book. The book stores information (Name, address and phone number) sorted alphabetically by last name. The pages are written in such a way that A comes before B and B comes before C, etc.. If one knows their alphabet, then any name can be easily looked up. Typically the first "key" to finding a name is at the top of the page, which tells you what section of the book you are in. If you were to locate my entry in the phonebook, you would quickly scan through the key until you found the letter B at the top of the page. Then you would continue to scan until you find the group of entries for BISHOP. And of course, then locate which entry matched my name, BISHOP, ROBERT. If there were no key at the top of the page, you would have to seek through all the pages one at a time until you got to the B section. Another excellent real-world example of an index system, is the Dewey Decimal System. Libraries have been indexing their books with a numbering system for years.
So, how does this all relate to SQL Server? There are several bold print words above that translate to SQL Server terms and how SQL works the same way as a phone book. To fully understand how SQL Indexes work one really needs to know how SQL stores data. We know SQL has the .mdf files that actually stores all your data. However, the data file is made of pages that are 8 KB in size. At the top of each page is a "page header" used to store system information about that page. There are many different types of pages that store different things, but two specific types of pages I want to talk about are "data" pages and "index" pages.
A "data page" is where your actual data (based on data types) is stored and as you guessed it, the index page stores index information. The "key" to proper storage of data is a Clustered Index. A Clustered Index, physically writes and stores a row of data in a page by selected column and by sort order selected. So a Clustered Index on a user table could be by the column "Last Name", just like a phone book. This will ensure that the data rows are written in alphabetical order on each page and in turn each page will be in alphabetical order as well, very efficient. SQL Engine "scans" the index to determine exactly what page the "B" last names are located. If a table did not have a clustered index, the data would be stored in a "first come-first served" fashion. In this scenario, the SQL Engine would have to scan then entire page or multiple pages to find your entry, very inefficient. Imagine how inefficient a phone book would be if the publisher just kept adding rows to the end of the book every year without being sorted by name. How long would it take you to find my name then?
So, the key to storing data in SQL, is to have a pre-determined way you want the data rows saved to the page. Ideally this would be the most used method of finding a row, i.e. by "Last Name".
Next week…..Types of Indexes
Software Review: Idera's SQL Elements
Over the last few weeks, I have had the opportunity to beta test Idera's newest product, SQL Elements. My initial response? This is both a "fantastic" product and a "tease" of a product, I'll explain later. Idera has definitely done their homework.
Initial install is easy; all you need is a web server, SQL Server for a data repository, and a Domain Service Account with SysAdmin privileges on the SQL Servers you would like to monitor or SQL account with SA privileges. My environment uses a Domain Security Group called SQL-DBA. Since it includes both my account and all service accounts that need SysAdmin rights, I just used one of these service accounts.
One of the better aspects of SQL Elements (SE) is the "auto discover" feature; it finds the servers for you. It basically scours your network to find all SQL Server instances it can find, including Express Editions. Even if the service account does not have SysAdmin rights, SE will find the server and provide a listing for it, which can help you to realize which SQL Servers, you as a DBA, do not have access to. It sometimes has problems determining the instance name (if you are using named instances example: "Server\SQLExpress,"), but who really uses SQL Express Edition for production anyway? You can always manually add the named instance to avoid that issue. This feature also periodically scan's the network for any new instances and automatically adds them to the "Discovered Instances" list so you know when someone else installs SQL Server. NICE FEATURE!
SQL Elements uses the concept of "health checks" to determine the status of your SQL Server. These health checks include: DBCC CHECKDB consistency, current backup checks, auto-shrink enabled, and "optimize for ad hoc workloads" just to name a few. Many of the more critical checks have email alerts associated with them to let you know when a database is filling up or when a drive is running out of room.
Once you login to the website, the Dashboard for SE provides a brilliant snapshot of your environment. First and foremost, at the top is the "Health Check Recommendations" that SE has found in your environment. Each Health Check is given a "Level" based on the severity of the problem. Idera provides a brief explanation of why each recommendation is made and a link to a more detailed explanation. Once you review the recommendations, you have the choice of dismissing the alert or refreshing the alert supposedly after you have resolved the issue with the recommendation.
Below the recommendations are two simple graphs listing "Top Databases by Size" and "Top Databases by Activity". Personally, I wish I could hide this module of the dashboard and move the "Instances" grid below it up. I haven't found much use for these two graphs, but maybe that is just me. The grid of Instances is very user-friendly; it's a simple list of what instances are being monitored, their monitoring status, response time, version, # of databases, and total size of databases. Each column is sortable, and the grid works on 20 listings per page which is a very reasonable size to work with.
On the right side menu, is a simple "My Environment" section, which allows you to manage the SQL Servers in your environment. The ability to classify the servers by "tags" is nice, especially if you want to just look at your "Critical 24×7" servers or just your "Test" servers. I really like the concept of "labeling" SQL Servers with a category so I can prioritize the server health check recommendations. I only wish when selecting a "tag" the resulting page showed the "Health Checks" for those specific servers, not the "Explorer" tab.
Clicking on the Instance name actually brings you to a very valuable "Instance Details" page. Again, at the top is the list of Health Check Recommendations for this particular instance. Below that is a grid listing all the databases found on the instance as well their status, recommendations, type, data size, log size, and activity. I would love this grid to include the Compatibility level of the database, because many time developers will restore, move, or copy a database from one server to a higher edition server and not change the compatibility level. On the right side menu, you have simple information pertaining to this particular instance. Clicking on the Server Name, however, will bring you to "Hardware Details". There is also a link to view the SQL configuration settings.
There are more sources of information found in SQL Elements. I won't go into those here, but they include an "Explorer" tab, which allows you to explore your environment by filters and tags can be helpful when trying to locate a specific server in a larger environment. As my environment is not that large, I really haven't used it much.
So, after this "novel" of a review, here is what I think of SQL Elements:
First and foremost, the application is well written, has smooth transitions between pages, and has yet to throw any type of exception error with me. The ability to classify instances is a wonderful concept and I use it everyday. One of the additional features that I truly enjoy is the ability to assign an owner and location to an instance. I assign the "end user" as the owner and either "Data Center" (for physical servers) or "VM Ware" (for well, VM instances). That way, I quickly know if I am dealing with a physical server or not. Monitored instances have to be SQL 2005 SP1 or above, which in my environment leaves me a little frustrated since, unfortunately, we are still running a dozen or so SQL 2000 instances. But it does let me know what SQL 2000 servers I have out there, so I'm able to start my migration plans now!
The only major "flaw" I found with SQL Elements is the lack of producing reports based on data collected. Many times, managers and directors require "physical proof" of why I am asking for another terabyte of drive space for a SQL Server. The "powers that be" like pretty graphs and trends. If a drive is running out of space, we need to be able to show them the trend of drive usage so we can justify that new 1.5 terabyte hard drive. Having participated in the beta forums for SQL Elements, I have faith that Idera will listen to the masses and in the future provide some sort of reporting feature.
I mentioned earlier, that this was a "tease" of a product. The DBA who uses this product needs to remember that this is not a monitoring tool. If you are hoping this will provide full SQL monitoring, then you will be disappointed. For that, I would recommend, Idera SQL Diagnostic Manager. However, if you want a way to know what SQL Instances are in your environment and get a quick overview of your server, then SQL Elements is for you. This is an "Inventory Tool" with some basic monitoring of the most fundamental aspects of a SQL Server: drive size, data integrity, backups, etc. Things that could and will cause major problems if not checked regularly.
This is a very valuable tool for starting DBAs or IT groups that have no clue what they have in their network (which is my group, because we have never had a DBA for our over 100 instances of SQL, before me). I would definitely recommend this product! I only hope I can convince my "powers that be" to get it for me!

COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. - It's your money and Collier County wants to save $130,000 of it by shutting off street lights during the off season. Some tax payers say they aren't the ones benefiting and it could wind up being dangerous.
"If you drive out here at all, if you live in this area you know it's pitch dark."
Kelly Blummer is talking about Collier Boulevard. It's just one of the roads where most of the street lights will be turned off until the roads fill up again during season.
It's also the road where her daughter catches the school bus. "My daughter's in high school, she's a freshman and it's still dark in the morning, it's barely getting light out," Blummer tells me with concern.
The county has shut off 76 percent of it's street lights on parts of Immokalee Road, Collier Boulevard, Vanderbilt Beach Road, Rattlesnake Hammock Road, Livingston Road and Logan Boulevard. They plan to turn them on again in November.
"They put the street lights up, let's use them," one local says.
"I don't understand how we can pay for something with our tax dollars and then they turn it off when us, the tax payers, are still here," Blummer says.
She's not the only one who feels this way. WINK News received emails calling the lights out a slap in the face to full-time residents.
However, the county says it will save them money in the long run, and it hasn't proven to cause an increase in traffic crashes.
Some residents find that hard to believe.
"A hundred and thirty thousand is a lot of money, but safety? There's probably better things to cut back on."
The county says it will leave streetlights on in intersections and commercial driveways.

Summers near and the time is right for touring on the Golden Arrow. What a great line up of venues (especially San Diego). They bringing their music to the beaches in southern California the "High" and low deserts , and the Rockey Mountains Colorado. It's time to have a real good time. How about enjoying the Ratdog tour riding in my 38' 2008 Fleetwood Pace Arrow motor home. Stress free, low fees, and party friendly! It's a no brain-er. A Ratty summer 2014 Dog daze. Weir on shrooms. Let's create some life long memories together.Who's in? Leave a post or you can text or voicemail me at 415 312 7231 to save you seat on the bus or for more information. Much love and many blessings . Alex and Jake. : ) (P..S. For those who don't know me please don't take the words in this post literally it's all tongue n cheek. Our safety and security is my up-most concern.)
The turmoil of today has caused me to reevaluate my values .I dont want to be a part of the collective nightmare in mainstream society. I want to be with people that embrace my dreams and offer me hope. And believe in a world where all living beings live in peace love and harmony. Thank you Furthur Family.

Reader: Will Patton
Short Review: Engaging story that lets you into the minds of a very horrible person and his current target. Written and read with such realism that your stomach will twist, and you'll be tempted to cover your ears.
Reader: James Marsters
Short Review: Skin Game is a continuation of the popular fantasy series about Harry Dresden, Chicago's only professional wizard. The series is best consumed in order, but the book contains some descriptions which could assist new Dresden readers in understanding basic series history. A very cleverly written series for adults who want to graduate from Harry Potter into something with more teeth. James Marsters reads this 15th book in the series, bringing all the characters to life.

Reader: Stephen Hogan
Short Review: The fourth book in French's excellent Dublin Murder Squad series, read by the talented Stephen Hogan. Previous books in the series include In the Woods and The Likeness. They can be read out of order without spoiling the series.
Reader: Grover Gardner
Extras: Brief tutorial from the author on the order in which her books should be read.
Short Review: Intrigue and romance dominate the scene as cousin Ivan finally gets his day in the sun. A great addition to the Vorkosigan series, this time with Miles only in a supporting role. Gardner is still as great as ever.
Reader: Neil Patrick Harris (as Barney Stinson)
Short Review: Quick and amusing. Fans of the TV show How I Met Your Mother will be giggling. Neil Patrick Harris reading as Barney is basically a 2 hour standup riff on the agony and trauma of becoming a parent.
Reader: Jim Dale
Short Review: The Locus Award winning novel is an enthralling story of magic, love, and struggle beautifully read by Jim Dale.
Reader: James Marsters
Short Review: A well read interesting blend of airships, vampires, alternate history and a strong princess coming of age and discovering her strength.
Reader: Simon Winchester
Short Review: A fascinating story about two of the men who dedicated their lives to the creation of the Oxford English Dictionary: one a Scottish Philologist, and one an institutionalized American doctor.
Reader: Ellen DeGeneres
Short Review: Light and airy visit with the popular comedienne. Nothing too deep here, but it is fun to listen to Ellen share her upbeat cheerful thoughts and get a taste for her life beyond the public eye. Be prepared for some outright silliness.
Reader: Emma Galvin
Short Review: Intense first-person YA tale with strong 16 year old female protagonist trying to find her place in a very complicated far future world. Fabulous reader, great story.

What is this, a fooking socialist takeover! Nothing but shills, spouting their bile and hatred. Read the CONSTITUTION and the Federalist Papers once in a while and you will see how far off track this country is from it's founding principles of a LIMITED Federal Government. You can blame all you want, but take a hard, long look in the mirror to see what the problem is in this country. NOBODY wants to take responsibility or be accountable for anything. We are so far off of the founding principles it makes me sick.

The other day I had a moment of clarity about one of the ways my mind reinforces and amplifies anxiety. The model I came up with was so simple and substantial that I literally sat down and drew an infographic of it on the spot. An infographic of my head, just for me! To be used as a tool in the war against my mind! Aside from the clinical relief this new self-awareness brought - and that was not insignificant - the giddy joy of the infographic itself put me in a good mood for the whole damn weekend.Read more
A dirty thunderstorm (also, Volcanic lightning) is a weather phenomenon that occurs when lightning is produced in a volcanic plume. A study in the journal Science indicated that electrical charges are generated when rock fragments, ash, and ice particles in a volcanic plume collide and produce static charges, just as ice particles collide in regular thunderstorms.
This is what Hell looks like. And it's AWESOME.

Film festival exhaustion? Yes, undoubtedly so. No complaints though; it has been an embarrassment of riches. Between the cold I've been fighting and the thunderhead that rolled in over Toronto around sundown, my head was pitching a fit from around 2 in the afternoon till just about now, threatening to burst, but I just couldn't help it – it was warm, and it finally feels like spring, and yet another film festival was calling. When the clouds finally break open all the pressure in my head snaps in a rush. I got myself a cup of coffee and an Empire magazine and stood in line outside the Bader to finally join Hot Docs on its eighth day, for back-to-back screenings of the two films I've most been looking forward to in the program, Sexy Baby and The Queen of Versailles. And Sasha and Jonny and Courtney showed up for a while and hung out, and when the line went in I snugged myself away in one of the solo seats off to the side, and life is good.
If I'm not quite yet sick of movies, I'm certainly sick of their ads – The Avengers and Prometheus and The Dark Knight Rises chief among them. The decisions being made here are wearying. (What? The Avengers needs this level of support to break through?) But summer is finally arriving and I inevitably feel like a kid all over again. A year ago I was anticipating the shuddering calamity of a Pirates 4. Now I feel the red blood pumps of The Avengers; contemplate the mysteries of Ridley Scott's return to LV-426; and feel the wintery chill of Nolan's last Batman movie. Hollow pursuits? I don't hold much enthusiasm for that line of intellectual snobbery. Make use of all the beats on your iPod, not just the slow ones.Read more

Scholarship Helps More than One Life
Karen Dhaliwal, Tacoma Foundation Scholarship recipient, is making a better life for her family.
Karen Dhaliwal's son inspired her before he was even born.
A native of Modesto, California, she had attended community college, thinking about a career in criminal justice. But it wasn't until she moved to Washington and began studying at Clover Park Technical College that she discovered human services, where she could work with people trying to turn their lives around.
She also discovered that she was going to have a baby.
"Now that I had to take care of someone besides myself, I really got serious about college," says the Evergreen Tacoma student. "My motivation was to make a better life for me and my son. Living at a low income level is not somewhere I want to be, and I knew education is the only way to move up in life."
At the same time, Dhaliwal wanted more than a job – she wanted a career she could enjoy, where she could help others. She earned her associate's degree in human services from Clover Park, and also did an internship shadowing the college's director of student services. "It took me a long time to have that epiphany of what I wanted to do," she says. "But after that internship, I realized that I wanted to do what she does – help other students like me navigate higher education."
She also wants to enjoy the time she has invested and love what she does. "Someone once told me, 'If you love what you do, you don't ever work a day in your life,'" she says. "That is my drive and motivation. I look forward to experiencing that feeling."
Dhaliwal's son, Kenai, is now three years old, and will be getting ready to start school when she finishes her degree. Receiving a Tacoma Foundation Scholarship has reduced some of her financial pressure, which has positively affected her academics. "It has given me stability and made me able to provide for myself and my family," she says. She had been struggling to afford what most students find are necessities – a laptop computer, textbooks, even small things like paper and a backpack. "This scholarship has made a big difference because I used it as a stepping stone to help with schoolwork, and now I'm maintaining that commitment to doing well. This scholarship not only affected me, but also my son. You are helping me through school, and I'm working to help him. It's amazing how more then one life can be affected."
Being an integral part of her son's life is especially important for Dhaliwal, who grew up in a foster family, and moved to Tacoma to meet and get to know her biological parents. Both of her foster parents attended college, which she says was a big influence on how far she has come with her education. But it is also inspiring to reunite with her biological family, and have their support for her and her family.
She also knows that she has support from Evergreen. "When you get to Evergreen, you find out quickly that everyone here has a mission," she says. "There is not one person who's just here to get by. We're all driven – by earning a better living, by passion, by something. That's why Evergreen is so successful. The energy of the staff, faculty and students is what makes you want to be here." And in addition to financial support, her Foundation Scholarship gives her emotional support as well.
"It really hits the heart and home of who you are when an act of kindness is done for your struggle," Dhaliwal says. "What awe- some people donors must be to go out of their way for someone they don't even know. This scholarship makes a big impact in every aspect of my life. Knowing these people believe in me makes me know that I can do this. Evergreen is where I need to be."

- 2010: Acquired iPhone 4. I start taking infinitely more photos than I used to with my old 2004 Canon point and shoot, partly because I want to play with various camera apps, but mostly because I always have a camera on me now, and I wouldn't necessarily carry a camera with me every day going to college.
- 2011: Went to Google I/O with only the iPhone as a camera. Photos I took were good but I wanted better. I bought the Sony NEX-3 to do just that.
- 2012: The Retina Display iPad is released. All of the photos I took on my old Canon point and shoot camera are somewhere in between 1024x768 and 2048x1536, so they are scaled and appear very pixellated. A week or two later, I went to Tokyo and Yokohama. Lots and lots of photos were taken on both the iPhone and the NEX. iPhone shots were mostly things I wanted to share then and there, NEX shots were mostly memories I wanted to preserve for archival. The NEX shots look splendid on the Retina Display.
Today is DOMINION Day.
This is fucking stupid.

An Update on the iCloud Nightmare, Part 1
Previously, I posted a little footnote on a link post about how a few of iCloud's services were super-stable and a couple others weren't.
Yeah, well screw all of that. Every single iCloud feature has failed me at least once.
Photo Stream no longer works at all for me because my Mac consistently forgets it has Photo Stream enabled, rendering the feature useless.
Calendar syncing seems to have gotten better, but it will occasionally do this scare tactic thing where all of a sudden ALL OF YOUR CALENDAR EVENTS DISAPPEAR and magically reappear if you quit and relaunch? Which I guess is fine, but it wouldn't be fine if that empty calendar magically propagated to all the other devices, and seeing a blank calendar every 8th time I launch iCal is going to give me a fucking heart attack if it doesn't stop.
Contact syncing is still consistently one revision behind to me. Bookmark syncing is unpredictable as ever.
Then there's "Documents in the Cloud". But I'll get into that tomorrow.
My home screen now only has the apps I use on a daily basis.
I swear at some point I will post something real to this blog other than music videos.
I'm just not done writing it.
Also: no nouvo nude, no life.

How to complete a rubix cubeĀ
Composed of various methods that were merged together and I felt was the easiest for beginners to learn. Some solutions require quite a bit of memorization and little thinking. Others require lots of thinking but little memorization. Others require lots of both but are extremely fast. The solution presented here falls on the low-thinking range, mild-memorization, but fairly-slow part of the spectrum. Therefore you will not be able to go off and solve a Rubik's Cube immediately after reading this page only once. That will require a good deal of memorization, but it's not impossible. I've seen people memorize this solution in a day. If you learn this solution thoroughly, your best time might be around a minute or a minute and a half. Once you get this method down pretty good, and you want to work on your solving time, I suggest you learn theĀFridrich MethodĀor another speed cubing method. Check on Google.Ā
Axioms To Keep In Mind:
- The cube consists of 21 individually moving parts. These include 1 triple-axis, 12 edge pieces, and 8 corner pieces.
- A center square will always remain a center square no matter how you turn the cube.
- An edge piece will always remain an edge piece no matter how you turn the cube.
- A corner piece will always remain a corner piece no matter how you turn the cube.
- Center pieces never change their position in relation to each other. They only twist around in place, even though it looks like they change places.
- An edge piece has two stickers on it. Those two stickers will always stay next to each other. If you want to move one of the colors to another position, the other has to come too. The same idea goes for corner pieces.
Peeling off the stickers is not the solution (in fact if you start to peel off some of the stickers but never finish putting the rest in their places, you are most likely going to cause an impossible combination and make the cube unsolvable). Even if you do finish replacing the stickers, you make solving the cube more difficult and awkward to a person who actually knows how to solve it since the colors are not in the same place in relation to each other.
A Side Note:
There is a difference between oriented and positioned. If a segment is in the wrong place, it is said to be in the wrong position. If a segment is in the right place but is facing the wrong way, then it is oriented incorrectly.
Solution To The Rubik's Cube
Step 1: Solving One Side
Solving the top row is the hardest part of the solution, believe it or not. Keep in mind that when you solve the one side, you have to solve the adjoining row at the same time. That means that if you decided to solve the blue face first, it would have to look something like the above picture. Notice how the red and green squares are all lined up nicely in the top row. Up to the challenge? Here we go…
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Don't Panic
- Pick a color of the six (I will be using blue in most of the examples, so whenever I say blue, I really mean top color).
- Find a sticker of that color that is in the center of the face. This will be your top.
- Move the corresponding edge and corner pieces of that color next to the center cube while making sure the top outside row colors line up (may the thinking juices flow).
Let's break down that last part…
What you're basically trying to do is this:
When you're trying to do this for the first time, it's always a good idea to solve the edge pieces first, so you have a cross on the top like this…
This will make positioning the corners easier.
However, sometimes you will get this little dilemma…
Here's what to do if that happens:
ClickĀhereĀfor an animation of the above sequence
When moving an edge piece to its place, make sure that while you're turning the sides it doesn't interfere with the edge pieces that are already in place. Move the top side so you can avoid messing up what you've done already.
Always remember to make sure that the colors on the side of the edge pieces line up with the other center squares (VERY IMPORTANT)…
Once you've got that down, you can move on to solving the corners.
If the corner you want to move is on the bottom row, move it directly underneath where you want it to go. Remember that the colors have to match up when it gets to the top row. So don't move a corner piece that has blue, yellow and orange on it directly underneath the blue-red and blue-green edge pieces.
There are three ways to move this corner to the top row without disrupting any edge pieces. Depending on how the corner is oriented, you can decide how to move it.
The "2″ means to turn that side 180 degrees. It doesn't matter which way.
ĀBlue sticker is facing right:
ĀBlue sticker is facing left:
ĀBlue sticker is facing down:
What if the corner you need is on the top row already, but is in the wrong place or has the wrong orientation?
Do this while holding the cube so that the desired corner is in front:
The piece you need is now on the bottom row somewhere to the left. Crisis Solved.
Look what you've just done:
Step 2: The Middle Row
Now twist the top face so that the center cube on each adjoining face matches in color with the three squares above it so they make small T's on each side, like so.
You can tell that an edge piece that has green on one side and orange on the other side goes in the middle of the picture above in order for it to look like this:
Look at the bottom face on your cube. Figure out what your bottom color will be; it should be the same color of the center sticker on the bottom.
Now look at the edge pieces on the bottom and try to find one that does not have the bottom color on it. That means that this edge piece should go in the middle row.
The next two algorithms show you how to move a piece from the bottom row to the middle row. Keep in mind that the colors given are only examples of what the color scheme on your cube could possibly look like. (red is front, green is right)
If a piece is in the middle row, but is not in the right place or is oriented incorrectly such as this red green edge…
…then pick a random piece from the bottom row. Pretend that this random piece from the bottom row is the red green edge piece and solve it. Once you put this wrong piece in the red-green's spot, then the real red green piece will fall back to the bottom row. Once the real red green piece is in the bottom row, then you can position it in a normal fashion using the steps above.
Step 3: Orient Bottom Corners
This next step is one of the most commonly misinterpreted steps in the entire solution so pay careful attention…
Next, you must orient the four corners. Compare the four corners on the bottom of your cube to these pictures. Disregard the non-corner pieces on the bottom of your cube. Skip this step if they are all oriented correctly. The whole point of comparing the bottom is to determine how to hold the cube for the next move. The black spots represent the bottom color of your cube. These are all the possible combinations of corner orientations. Figure out which one looks like the bottom corners on your cube. Now hold the cube so that it looks exactly like the way it does here. You may have to rotate it to get it to mat
Note: Remember that '2′ means turn the indicated face twice. It does not matter which direction you turn it. It'll end up the same either way.
Now go back to the beginning of this step and keep on doing this until all four corners are oriented properly. If you do it right, the most you should have to do this process is three times. Sometimes you'll get it on the first try. Sometimes you may get lucky and can skip this step altogether.
Getting there:
Step 4: Orient Bottom Edges
There are only 4 bottom edge orientation possibilities at this step. If your cube doesn't match one of these, then somebody's been peeling your stickers. This step's pretty simple. Ignore gray squares; white squares are the ones that need to be oriented. Hold the cube as you see it shown in the picture. If you don't hold it so that the white in the picture corresponds exactly to where disoriented edges are, you may do some moves destructive to your progress.
These moves are fairly simple to memorize because they always follow this pattern:
Left Up, Right Up, Turn the Front Somewhere,
Left Down, Right Down, Turn the Bottom Somewhere,
Simply tilt the cube towards yourself to make the big diagram look like the mini diagram and directions. White squares represent edges that are not oriented correctly.
2 Wrong pieces next to each other
(The second half of this move is almost an exact repeat of the first!)
2 Wrong pieces across from each other
All 4 edges are wrong
Ever so close…
Step 5: Position Bottom Corners
You can take a sigh of relief, as there is only 1 move to memorize in step 5.
This move will switch the places of the two corners in the bottom front without changing their orientation…
Continue using this move until all 4 corners are in the correct place. Edges still do not matter at this point.
Just One More Step To Go…
Step 6: Position Bottom Edges
Only 2 moves to memorize in this step. (But they're so similar it should only be counted as one)
These moves will rotate the following edge pieces…
To rotate the yellow pieces clockwise…
To rotate the yellow pieces counter-clockwise…
You can use this 3-edge switch algorithm over and over again until all edges are in place, which means…
You're Finished. Congratulations!
Note: if you are using a Rubik's Cube that has pictures or patterns instead of colors for each face, then you may need to still orient the centers.

Rory Wilmer and myself have decided to create our own design magazine. Contributors to have to put their work through the 'Filter' before publication, thus ensuring graphic continuity throughout. Above are a couple of examples of my contributions.

Love the graphics in this live show
ZFK cover art
A riff on Rory Wilmer's poster art for ZFK's screeening of Tsotsi/Surfing Soweto.
ZFK: 'If…'
Cover art for the forthcoming ZFK screening of Lyndsay Anderson's 'If…'
ZFK banner art
As one of ZFK's in-house art design team, I was called upon to design posters for the Manhattan Film Festival screenings in Prague this year. These soon became synonymous with the club and were subsequently used for leaflets, stickers and, eventually, banners for the ZFK blogsite.
ZFK Screening Sept. 2007 – the THING
Another poster for the ZFK screening of John Carpenter's the Thing. One of the advantage's of a DVD player is the ability to take a snapshot of any frame of the movie to use as elements of the work instead of having to rely on Google Images etc.
ZFK Screening – Danger: Diabolik
A nice balance of elements: minimal lay-out but with the graphic lettering to add a touch of motion.
ZFK screening – This is England
ZFK showed Shane Meadow's 80′s skinhead drama and this is the graphic we used for the posters etc. I think it'd make a great shirt.
ZFK – Black & White night
Poster for the ZFK screening of Equilibrium. The theme of the movie, one man's stand against a totalitarian regime, suits my art style perfectly. I actually think it would be an interesting idea to re-make the film in the style of Renaissance (the animation not the art movement).
ZFK – New Look Film Club
First screening of the newly-formed Zizkov Film Klub, a brand new look to the program plus a series of logo ideas.

Great utilisation of graphic art and motion graphics. Can't wait to see the series in its entirety.

I've always been a huge fan of David Fincher's. Even the much underrated 'the Game' was magnificent and his upcoming movie (five years after Panic Room) looks like its going to be one of the highlights of the year. Fincher has a vision not to be interfered with (Fight Club, Se7en) and the respect for him in the industry is such that he can not only get some of the best actors in the business to work with him but he has the sort of power that can hold a film back from being entered in time for the Oscars so that he can fine-tune it. Respect.

PEAK ATP® with GlycoCarn® provides two critical nutrients for optimal endothelial function and structural integrity.
GlycoCarn®' a patented form of propionyl-L-carnitine' supports healthy endothelial function by facilitating the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria where they are converted into usable energy. It also augments endothelial nitric oxide synthesis' enhancing blood flow to active tissues (e.g.' skeletal muscle and heart).
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a key component of the cellular energy cycle. ATP acts on microvascular endothelial cells to produce vasodilation (widening of the arteries). PEAK ATP® has been tested in human and animal studies. It is readily absorbed and boosts circulating ATP levels. ATP released from red blood cells may stimulate endothelium-dependent dilation of adjacent arterioles. Ensuring adequate red blood cell pools of ATP to help regulate vascular tone is critical to maintaining circulatory health.
