Hi guys,
I've got a lot of RP and I'm thinking what to get next. I thinking of getting Trydamere but I'm accepting any offers. I prefer AD carries.
Senior Member
If you're going Melee ADC, yi is infinitely better, despite his lack of the temporary refusal to die. Honestly, the ranged ones are going to be your best choice. Like hands down. Can you list what AD carries you own?
I've got
Magus Crow
What exactly are you looking for in your ADC? Ez and Corki are probably the place that most people are going to point you. Fiora and Tryndamere (some would say Sion is a melee ADC as well) are the two melee ADCs that you are missing but both are relatively weak since they can be shut down so easily with a simple stun or exhaust.
Kog is free this week. Perhaps check him out and see if you like it? He's squishy as heck but if you can get him off the ground hes an amazing late game character.

Originally written on Cardinals Fan in Cubs Land | Last updated 11/9/14
According to David Kaplan of CSNChicago.com, the Cubs are likely to trade Matt Garza this week and, while Texas, Toronto and Cleveland are all involved, the Cardinals are considered a darkhorse. Per Kaplan's "significant industry source": "The Cardinals saved a ton of money walking away from the Pujols negotiations and now they are having the last laugh as that contract looks awful for the Angels. They have a loaded farm system and if they are able to win another World Series after letting Albert walk away, it would be a huge statement about not overpaying players no matter how important they are to your organization. Giving up a few top prospects for a shot at another championship is a small price to pay. And don't think for one second that Theo or Jed is afraid of dealing Garza to a division rival. If they get the right deal they won't care where they deal him to." Previously, I hadn't put a lot of stock into the Garza rumors, as I ...

Junior Member
Just after some opinions from high ranked or experienced players.
We got a team of 5 and we do unranked games, we not all 30 yet anyways, but sometimes we get owned buy a team with no support, we normally have a proper setup, support, jungles solo top ect. But I was wondering what's the advantage to having a support at bot compared to 2 damage dealers? Is it always better to have a support assuming we play right? Or is it possible to have no support?
Senior Member
Assuming you don't give up kills, an AD carry with 200 cs and support with 0 cs is more effective when it comes to later fights than 2 guys with 100 cs each because of how ridiculously well AD carries scale with gear. If you're getting harassed or killed and can't get your farm in, then obviously you'll be at a disadvantage.

UTSA beats Southern Miss 12-10 behind Ianno's FGs
SAN ANTONIO (AP) Sean Ianno kicked four field goals, including a 38-yarder as time expired, and Texas-San Antonio beat Southern Mississippi 12-10 on Thursday night to snap a three-game losing streak.
Ianno connected from 41 and 28 yards in the second quarter to give UTSA a 6-0 halftime lead and added a 35-yarder early in the third to boost the lead to 9-0 for UTSA (3-7, 2-4 Conference USA).
But Corey Acosta kicked a 36-yard field goal for Southern Mississippi (3-8, 1-6) just 18 seconds into the fourth quarter and Nick Mullens hit Markese Triplett with a 22-yard touchdown pass midway through the period to give the Golden Eagles a one-point lead.

Last night the world paused to watch the replay of what will more than likely be the best football catch we will ever see in our lifetime. If you google search "Odell Beckham Jr. catch", you will find an infinite number of post, vines and analysis of this miraculous catch. As I was going to bed last night, I thought about the catch and the response that came from it. Here are a few thoughts on how we should break the internet with what we do to.
1. He only does one thing:
OBJ gets paid to catch the ball. Not throw it, not look good in a uniform, but to catch the ball. I believe we would break the internet too if we could focus on doing one thing and one thing well. For me, its preaching. I want to allow others to lead areas that I am not good at and I want my one thing to be preaching. I want to break the internet with my preaching, not with my admin skills or graphic design skills or even my blog writing skills.
2. He trains all week for one thing:
I am not aware of the specifics of his schedule but I am sure he doesn't just watch cartoons until its time for Sundays game. He works hard to do this one thing well. Same is true for us. More time should be spent developing our craft when no one else is watching so we can break the internet when everyone else is watching.
3. When you do one thing extraordinarily, you eventually will break the internet:
Refining your one skill overtime will break the internet. It might take 1000 ordinary passes, but one day there will be one pass that breaks the internet.
Do something today. One thing. One thing to break the internet.

I like this quote:
Building a sandcastle for fun, Kniberg says, is a process that doesn't need to be controlled.
Control is the key word in this sentence. Kanban helps people think they have and need "control" of a process. It is almost inherently not agile in nature.
If I'm working with a few developers on a small startup (which I've done numerous times), there is no need for Kanban. We deploy code continually with virtually no WIP. Kanban would be a silly notion for such a small group. We need to be agile.
For larger organizations where WIP becomes an issue, sure, use kanban. But don't confuse lean processes from being agile, they are two different animals.
In case you are wondering, I've implemented kanban several times during my professional career.
Henrik is fantastic at simplifying seemingly complex topics. He's done a great job at explaining Kanban to the masses. I think he's spot on when he states that Scrum does not work well in maintenance or sustained engineering situations.
I'm not sure I follow his "kanbanizing" Scrum concept.

Book Description:
"An ingenious new presentation of an old history."—Fiberarts The dazzling cloths presented here are the visual record of one of the great untold stories of Asian design history: the trade in Indian textiles to Southeast and East Asia. The chintzes made for export to Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries are now well known; but for over a thousand years Indian cloths were traded for the spices and forest and mineral wealth of the East by Asian, Arab, and European merchants. Universally in demand, the textiles were designed to suit specific markets: attire for royalty, diplomatic gifts, displays for festive occasions, and clothing for rites of passage and other ceremonies. Outstanding among them are the patterned cottons—the famous chintzes—and the tie-dyed silk patola, reserved for rulers and nobility. 145 color, 96 b&w illustrations

Genomic Sequence Variation and Posttranscriptional Modification on Gene Regulation and Function
Call for Papers
Genomic sequence variation and posttranscriptional modification of RNA transcripts lead to changes in gene regulation, regulation of gene networks, and protein function, which can then lead to pathogenesis and diseases. The past two decades have seen an explosion in research on these topics thanks to the rapid advance in high-throughput technologies.
This special issue invites authors to submit their research and review papers addressing important questions on how RNA editing and splicing and single nucleotide and multinucleotide variants (SNVs and MNVs, respectively) impact transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation, translation, and protein function that collectively result in pathogenesis and diseases.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- MicroRNA regulation and gene expression
- RNA editing and disease
- Alternative splicing and gene regulation
- RNA editing and disruption of miRNA function
- Promoted RNA-induced gene silencing by SNVs/MNVs
- Identification of RNA editing sites in miRNAs by deep sequencing
- Application tools, databases, and novel approaches for miRNA, RNA editing, and SNV/MNV discovery and functional analysis

This one time a fisherman told me he was a doctor

I say "yes, that's where I'm going right now" I reply as I step off of the boat. "I drive, no problem." Okay so now I'm thinking, he's going to drive me off into the middle of no where and kill me, typical. Anyways, I go along with it, he drives me down the way and we get to ...
On Tuesday we flew to Heraklion - the main city in Crete. We then got a bus to our hotel in Sisi. The Hotel was called Sentido Vasi Hotel. It had 7 swimming pools including one with a volleyball net.

We were sad to see Nanny and Poppy leave but then we went to Chania and stayed in a really nice hotel and we started to feel happier.

I have a EF domain model to pass around information between my ASP.NET MVC controllers and my service layer. The MVC Controller is disconnected from the data source and relies completely on the service for loading.
I am using EF 4.3 and Code First.
Because of this, I do not use the EF lazy load functionality in the MVC layer of my app. So, many objects are "partially loaded" as I do not need the data and it's ineffcient to load it.
However, I constantly run into Null Reference Exceptions during development, since there's no way to statically knowing this, short of making a ton of DTOs that represent only the data that is being passed.
I am not fond of creating a lot of DTOs, as that creates a lot more code and mapping issues, and doesn't necessarily reduce the amount of bugs that might be caused. but I suspect that is the only real way to make my code cleaner here.
Is there a design pattern to account for disconnected, n-tier Entity Framework applications other than DTOs?

Flu: the story of the great influenza pandemic of 1918 and the search for the virus that caused it
Simon & Schuster, Jan 9, 2001 - History - 330 pages
The fascinating, true story of the world's deadliest disease. In 1918, the Great Flu Epidemic felled the young and healthy virtually overnight. An estimated forty million people died as the epidemic raged. Children were left orphaned and families were devastated. As many American soldiers were killed by the 1918 flu as were killed in battle during World War I. And no area of the globe was safe. Eskimos living in remote outposts in the frozen tundra were sickened and killed by the flu in such numbers that entire villages were wiped out. Scientists have recently rediscovered shards of the flu virus frozen in Alaska and preserved in scraps of tissue in a government warehouse. The author unravels the mystery of this lethal virus with the high drama of a great adventure story. Delving into the history of the flu and previous epidemics, detailing the science and the latest understanding of this mortal disease, sheaddresses the prospects for a great epidemic recurring, and, most important, what can be done to prevent it.

Reviewed Dec 2003 ~ purchased for $1 from the book fair
An interesting history of the flu and other epidemics. It almost reads like a mystery but actually is a historical look at the flu. This is especially interesting to read because I have the flu right now, and the news this week is flooded with discussions of deaths from the flu. What surprised me the most is how many people die each year (30-50K). the 1918 flu killed 40 million world wide, almost impossible to imagine.
The other think that surprised me is to realize that the flu deals with the lungs and not nausea (that would be the stomach flu). I never knew that fever, chill, coughing and headaches are flu not cold symptoms.
At points the book is technical (over my head) and sometimes confusing jumping back and forth between various people in time and place. Very well documented Kolata uses full names/dates/places to back up everything she says. This book would be useful for school projects as well as those interested in history.
My grievance lies in that there is so much info that a 2nd or 3rd read is needed. Also I am still not sure if scientists have come to a conclusion about the 1918 virus.

The "Butterfly Effect" theoretically describes a hurricane's formation being contingent on whether or not a distant butterfly had flapped its wings weeks before. This highlights a sensitive dependence on environmental conditions where a small change at one place (Dev Env) can result in large differences to a later state (Production).
Consider the possibility that a small innocuous code change could go undetected, promoted through Development & QA, and then have catastrophic effects on performance once it reaches production. The environmental variants need to be minimized and closely monitored to prevent the anomalous behavior.
Depending on transaction volume and performance characteristics there will be a certain level of noise that will need to be squelched to a volume level that can be analyzed. This is the precipice where APM intersects Capacity Management and advanced analytics opens the door to predictive modeling. The ability to ascertain how the physical and virtual environments will react to a "what if" scenario is why optimizing the application life cycle is so important.
Consider the challenge of monitoring any new application brought into the environment being similar to predicting the behavior of a new child that enters the classroom. There is a sensitive dependence on initial conditions based on their own predispositions, which creates interdependencies on future actions that can be difficult to vaticinate.
Using the same technologies in a consistent manner to manage all environments has a tremendous benefit for minimizing anomalies, just as consistent classroom management provides a framework to reduce errant student behavior.
I'm suggesting that expanding an APM solution to cover all environments across the application life-cycle will help lay the foundation for providing an amplified feedback loop to improve application performance and the customer experience.
