The Vault Of Dark Memories...Wow, this is harder than I realized it was going to be. I have kept all this that I possibly could locked in a vault deep down inside. Although, being aware of its presence haunts me. I have just in this past week learned of the name for my mother's problem, up till now I have been convinced she is possessed by demons. I have been reading some of the stories posted here and... I am utterly speechless... I had no idea there was another soul on this earth that has been through this hell, I always assumed I was alone.
I am having this feeling that I can't identify, it's like my heart is fluttering with happiness, yet aching with fear and sadness, my stomach is sick with nervous! I don't know if I am about to cry from heartbreak, or cry from joy and relief! Anyone else know what this is? I was never allowed to have emotions nor was shown any either.
I am 32 yo now, I have a 13 yo daughter and I fight my mother's voice inside my head every single day regarding my daughter. It is hard to suppress the only thing I was ever taught. I have always known that she was wrong for how she talked to me, how she looked at me, how she beat me. I wish I hadn't have been aware though. My first memories as a small child are of being sad, then as I grew up my memories just turn into angry ones. Right now, I have a fire in the pit of my soul that should not be there. I yearn to have a smile on my face in just one childhood memory. But I know I must look forward, I just can't figure out how. I hope writing this helps to purge this rage, but I don't think I can let the vault open up just yet. I get anxiety just thinking about the vault of dark memories. I don't handle those demons well at all. But I can talk about recent, minor encounters with my demoness mother.
Two weeks ago, I foolishly went over to her house to let my daughter visit and I told her how I am signing up for school again. She squinted her eyes and glared at me and with her lip snarled and proclaimed how ignorant I am, and that is the most ignorant thing I could do. I asked why she thinks that, and she said "because I have started and not finished several times before and what makes me think this time won't be the same? You are just looking for attention, all you are doing is racking up bills you can't pay so people will pity you, ain't you?" I said "I have to try". She said "I can't wait till you fail again so I can laugh at you again!" her exact words, at this point my 13 yo daughter stands up and goes to the door and asks me if I am ready to go, and she goes and gets in my car without telling her bye, so I was right behind her. When I got into the car, my daughter says "I am so sorry, mom", but I wasn't upset, I'm use to that, I just told her how not to fear that if she starts school 100 times and can't finish, every time I will be proud of her, and I promise I will never react the way she did. My daughter said she knows, because I am nothing like my mom. That was the single best thing I have ever been told in my entire life. I definitely recognize that my daughter is my guardian angel. When I got pregnant with her at 18, I was headed down a bad road full of cocaine, alcohol, sex, and hate for myself and everyone else in the world. But, as soon as I learned I was pregnant, I left that place and haven't considered looking back since. I do have to admit though, my first anticipation after finding out was that I would finally be loved unconditionally. After having her, I am thrilled with HER, not just what she represents. I do have a problem with OVER empathy, though. Not like spoiling her, but carrying on and on about why I said no to her request to have or do something or go somewhere. She is smart and she gets why the first time I explained, but when I keep explaining any way, she has to tell me to stop. It's sort of comical looking back at it. Lol. I am just in such fear of turning into my mother, that I have to make extra, extra sure she don't think I am being outright mean.
My daughter has just became a teenager and I am completely lost on giving her advice on subjects important to her and teaching her things I want to teach her. That makes me the sickest.
At the same time my husband of two years leaves me, my doctor does a biopsy of my thyroid and the results were inconclusive, so I needed a total thyroidectomy. Here I am, possibly have cancer, my husband leaves me, I have no friends, I needed my mother. I broke down to her one afternoon, and she exploded, like I just totaled her brand new car or worse. She said for me to quit my bitchin'! She said she has worse problems, and ain't got time to deal with me. She said furthermore, I never want to hear your problems because it makes her blood pressure go up.
Me and my husband begin reconciling after about 2 weeks, and she forbade me to talk to him in her house. She said she was going to have the phone company to email her phone records every week to make sure I haven't been talking to him. I was 26 years old. She also forbade me to get a job because I was just going to lie and sneak and see him, my husband. So, I am imprisoned. In every sense. Just like growing up. My world crashed hard. I put my step father's gun to my temple. But I have my daughter, I couldn't leave her with my mother, to ruin. I put the gun back up. Grit and bear it. First chance I got to leave, me and my daughter were gone. That meant moving in with a man I didn't love. But he is good to my daughter and me. And we are not stuck in hell with Lillith.
Now, she tells my daughter how I was wild and slutty when I was a teenager. She tells her how miserable I was growing up when she tried so hard, I was just born hateful and out to make her life miserable. She has even told my daughter that I don't love her (my daughter). But, my daughter never believed her. Thank God.
This is all I can write for now. Thank you all for letting me vent.
Good Heavens!
Your daughter deserves your protection. Your mom sounds like a monster of a woman. She embodies toxicity! I am so sorry for your pain you had to endure from this unmother. You were cheated.
I feel for you and in my own situation, similar unmother situation I had to do the following:
1) Get a good counselor well versed in adult children of npd parents
2) and only allow normal (non-monster) wholesome good people near my precious child.
*Every moment you have with your daughter is a precious irreplaceable treasure, only to be shared with those who are worthy. The bad behavior of your mother disqualifies her from accessing or sharing such treasures. If you do see her at all consider the creation and keeping of very clear, well defined boundaries. A counselor can help you do this.
Best Wishes
I have a 14-year-old daughter, and it really helps that she can see my mom's craziness. Now that I've moved away from my childhood home and I have a family of my own, my mother needs me more than I need her. So she has to treat me with respect at a minimum. And now she tells me over and over again how wonderful I am and how much she loves me. (Kind of the opposite of what I got growing up, when she would blast me with her rage for displeasing her in some way.) And with my own daughter, my biggest goal is to treat her with respect. There have definitely been times when I've done too much for her, things she could and should be doing herself, but I'm slowly getting a little better at holding her responsible for her actions.<br />
Your daughter is bonded to you, and I know she can see your mother's craziness and anger for what they are -- which has nothing to do with you and everything to do with her own need to feel better about herself.
Oh Gawd, where do you start. She sounds like a more extreme version of my mother! Mine tries to keep a lid on things but if she is under stress, the ugly stuff comes out. Even if you had been all those things and worse, no one has the right to sprout that kind of crap in front of your daughter.
I work in disability and there are a lot of mothers of the clients I support with undiagnosed stuff just under the surface. Things like autism were previously thought to affect men much more often but recent research suggests that women are equally likely to have it but due to inherently better communication skills, are less likely to be diagnosed. Whatever the situation, your mother's behaviour is not normal and is both disappointing and unacceptable.
What impresses me though is how you seem determined to avoid perpetuating the cycle of abuse. You clearly understand that your genes and environment are the recipe but you're the chef. Understanding that is one thing, doing it is another and I wish you my very best with that ongoing process. I hope you're glad you posted your story here and I hope you take comfort from how proud and impressed perfect strangers from around the world are. XOX
Dear 'Vault',
Don't for ONE MINUTE believe her lies or the venom she tries to hurt you with. I am almost 49 and just finally went 'no contact' after my 'mother' has tried to ruin every relationship that is important to me. Don't let her live rent free in your head. The feeling inside that you refer to is called VALIDATION, because you finally realize that you aren't alone. She hates herself so much, but she projects that feeling onto you. continue to develop your relationship with your daughter. You don' t need to have all the answers, just keep the lines of communication open with her. She won't end up like your mother because YOU are taking care of her. My best advice: please get therapy. I obtained more than 15 years of therapy, and it took a long time to undo the damage, but it is possible. If you feel alone, read the stories here, or call a hotline, but DON"T go to the one person who won't give you what you need. I know its sad, but it wont work. She won't change. But you can change how you deal with her. we are all here for you!
Jesus, how sad.... I am so sorry for all your heartaches. Reading your story made me so sad.....NM are so damaging and so hurtful.... What is your situation now? Have you ever thought of no contact?

ESPN is reporting that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell says his office has communicated with suspended New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton about his eventual reinstatement.
Goodell did not eliminate the possibility of Payton rejoining the franchise before the Super Bowl, according to ESPN.
Read the ESPN story:
Payton would like an adjustment on the suspension so it would end at the conclusion of the regular season as opposed to after the Super Bowl, a source close to the coach suggests, according to ESPN.
Goodell said Wednesday that he and Payton briefly have discussed the reinstatement process they will follow and that more focused conversations are planned after the upcoming holidays, according to ESPN.

A vacant lot in Los Angeles is about to become a $400 million money pit, one lawmaker says, and this is just the tip of the iceberg.
"I think we should save $400 million and then actually sell the property," Rep. Jeff Denham, R.-Calif., told ABC News. "Both parties need to come together and say, 'Enough is enough.'"
The U.S. government is building a massive, new federal courthouse on the site, even though there are two current courthouses nearby - Spring Street and the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building - that work just fine. Denham said it was "a blatant waste of taxpayer dollars."
Denham, who chairs the subcommittee overseeing public buildings, has asked the Obama administration to halt the construction of the Los Angeles site and sell the property.
Despite Denham's protests, Rep. Lucille Roybal-Allard, D-Calif., said the courthouse is needed in her district. Roybal-Allard said the Spring Street building wasn't secure enough.
"Right now, the way the situation is, you have dangerous criminals having to go into public elevators and go down public corridors in order to get to the courtroom," she said. "We don't have enough courtrooms. We have to bring in visiting judges - [there are] not enough judges to handle all the cases. It's a dangerous situation which was to be addressed."
In Los Angeles and elsewhere in the U.S., the federal government has been on a courthouse-building spending spree. A brand-new courthouse was just built in Miami for about $163 million. The old one now sits padlocked and abandoned down the road.
And in Washington, D.C., a few blocks from the Capitol building, the federal government spent $105 million on this shiny, new courthouse that has left the old site open and operating but for the most part empty.
In November 2011, the Government Accountability Office released a report saying that the federal government had spent $835 million on unneeded courthouse space and an estimated $51 million a year in rent, operation and maintenance fees.
The report also said that there was nearly 4 million square feet of excess space in the 33 courthouses built since 2000. The GAO report attributed the extra space to "courthouses exceeding the congressionally authorized size, the number of judges in the courthouses being overestimated and not planning for judges to share courtrooms."
Denham said that a private developer should be allowed to buy the L.A. lot from the federal government.
And today, the U.S. government announced that Donald Trump had been selected to transform its Old Post Office Pavilion in Washington - listed on the National Register of Historic Places - into a luxury hotel.
"You could have a private developer come in and develop that area … creating thousands of jobs in L.A. and actually putting the property back on the tax rolls," he said. "Here, you want more revenue. … L.A. is one of those areas. There's a huge shortage of space. [There are] plenty of industries that could build there."

Vogue Patterns
Another successful sewing lesson with Kaitlyn yesterday. We fell a little behind with the holidays, so we're in overdrive now to complete her senior project in time! Only 5 weeks and about 9 outfits to complete. She's having a fashion show of repurposed clothing and I'm mentoring her.
Instead of repurposing an old garment this week, we started from scratch and used a Vogue pattern. We still stuck with her recycled theme and used all second hand fabric; she'd found some huge hideous clothes at Goodwill to cut up.
We started by cutting up the pattern in my living room. Stella kept jumping on the tissue paper, causing trouble. It's unfortunate my cat's favorite thing in the entire world is something I use while working, especially since I work at home. But we had a little fun with my tripod and remote.
It was a hat day for me. Too much work to do all day; no time to actually do my hair. I made the hat the past few slow days at work and while doing laundry the other day at the laundromat. I tried to make it a beret but it was a lot harder than I had anticipated. But it's great to hide my crazy hair beneath.
This pattern was labeled difficult but Kaitlyn felt confident taking it on. It was fully lined, had a peplum on the back, a side invisible zipper, darts, and had a ton of circular seams to sew. Kaitlyn impressed me with her work this week. She was very determined.
She learned to cut slits in the seam where the front bodice meets the front skirt so the fabric would lie flatter.
Trying it on before adding lining and the zipper.
We still needed to finish the hem but it's 99% finished! Using different colors and fabrics for the skirt and bodice was a great idea on Kaitlyn's part. It really made the dress unique to her personality. She added her signature turquoise along the peplum and at the front where the bodice was gathered.
She was considering taking the sleeves up a tad but we'll wait until we fit all the individual models in the clothes. Everything is sewn to Kaitlyn approximate size since all of her friends that will be her models are around her size. The few weeks before the show she'll learn some useful tailoring techniques I utilize at David's Bridal.
Next week, we'll be sewing another dress from a pattern. I can't wait!

The sides agreed on the terms earlier this month, but the paperwork could not be completed because Bosh was on a lengthy international vacation and needed to undergo a physical before signing. Bosh is entering his fifth season with the Heat.

Best Buy Looks to Crush Amazon with Price Match, Free Home Delivery This Holiday Season
Tiffany Kaiser
October 12, 2012 10:46 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: allthingsd.com)
Only about 40 percent of Best Buy shoppers leave the store with a purchase in hand, but the retailer wants to bump this percentage up a bit this holiday season
Brick-and-mortar retailers have been battling with online stores for years, but
Best Buy
is looking to reclaim a place in shoppers' hearts (and wallets) this holiday season with online price matching and free home delivery.
Best Buy announced that it will match the prices of online competitors like Amazon in order to attract more customers. This is huge for Best Buy, considering it has
lost a significant amount of business
to Amazon alone. With e-tailers like Amazon, customers can shop from the comfort at home, receive lower prices and quick delivery.
But Best Buy isn't betting on price matching alone. It's heating up the competition with free home delivery of products that are out-of-stock as well.
Right now, only about 40 percent of Best Buy shoppers leave the store with a purchase in hand, but the retailer wants to bump this percentage up a bit this holiday season.
"We have a tremendous opportunity to increase that close rate," said Matthew Furman, Best Buy spokesman.
Best Buy isn't alone in its holiday efforts to beat Amazon.
is currently testing a same-day delivery service for customers that who buy popular items off of the Wal-Mart website during the holidays. Toys "R" Us is another brick-and-mortar that is working to speed up delivery and offer price matching -- however, its price matching will not include Amazon, only brick-and-mortar competitors.
An interesting aspect of the holiday season is that a growing number of shoppers have started using brick-and-mortars for showrooms -- or checking out products in person -- then going home to buy the products online.
While this is another hurdle that brick-and-mortars must overcome, strangely, they're embracing this model.
"Let's be the best showroom," said Mike Duke, Wal-Mart CEO. "Let's be the best place where customers want to go and get the experience."
According to the brick-and-mortar stores, they can still offer things that Amazon can't. For instance, human customer service and options for purchase like online
brick-and-mortar stores. They added that Amazon now
must collect sales tax
in many U.S. states, so prices are not quite as low on the site as before.
To further hinder Amazon's sales, Wal-Mart and Target have
stopped selling the e-tailer's Kindle Fire tablet
The Wall Street Journal
"I modded down, down, down, and the flames went higher." -- Sven Olsen

Okay so if you can please answer these two questions for me.
1). I will be wrapping up my undergrad degree in Geography next year, and I plan on taking my GRE's this summer so I can apply this winter. I plan to go to Landscape architecture school so that I am can become an Urban Designer. I know that it is three years to attain the degree and hopefully I will find a job as well. I also am looking to get another degree that can balance my MLA and make me a much more attractive candidate for jobs. I want to work for big private firms, so I am asking: What degree goes better with MLA? A Master's in Marketing, or a Master's in Communication? How attractive will I as a prospective employee be? I feel too many times Landscape Architects are all about the pretty drawings and it kind of pigeon holes them. I feel with the extra Master's it shows that I am capable of the political aspects (B.A. in Geography), Design aspects (MLA), and as a strong investment into stragetic planning and relations to my company (Master's in Marketing or Communication).
2) My five schools for MLA of choice are UIUC, UWash, Berekely, Texas (at Austin), Ohio State. I am from Chicago, and I really would not mind working in another city for a few years, but I want to end up in Chicago. If not I would not mind Milwaukee or Madison. My dream firm to work for is Skidmore, Owings and Merrill. They have various locations, one in Chicago, one in San Fran. The schools I REALLY want to go to by rank are #1 Texas, #2 Berekely, #3 Washington. After I get my degree I DO NOT want to live in Austin, I would not mind working a little bit in the Bay Area, or Seattle. My question is: Where you study and intern, is that usually where you end up? How hard would it be for me to get to a job in Chicago, if I studied and only worked in Austin? Since I want to be in Chicago would you suggest going to UIUC seeing as it is the only school that has LA in the entire state of Illinois, and most likely most of its graduates get interns and jobs in Chicago? Is it better to give up a place you want to study in for a job in the city you want? Or does not matter, and I will eventually get to Chicago?

i drink all the time these days:
a) it's just better this way.
b) much more social, relaxed etc.
c) easier to get laid.
i know you can't have it inside the cab at anytime but,
What's the rule, time-wise?

I quit drinking in 1998 (at the tender young age of 22) two days before I started truck driving school. After 5 years of being a borderline alcoholic (never got the shakes or snakes), it was the best decision I ever made. However, I wonder about younger fellas these days. All the idiotic crap they are doing in their twenties I seem to have missed out on. I guess since I started driving early in life, I had to grow up and be responsible, rather than spend my time chasing a minimum wage paycheck and whatever tail might be available. On the upside, I'm 34 years old with no kids (never had any desire) or any baby-daddies running around hitting me up for child support. On the down side, I seem to have missed out on some serious fun. Oh well, I've always considered being able to drive more important than how many azzes I hit on the weekend. I must be boring as all get out.teddy_bear6506 Thanks this.
Some folks realize early on that they need to do things properly and others(like me to some extent) insist on learning things the hard way.
I think it is admirable that you that you thought you may have had alcoholic tendencies and cut it off at the pass.
I was drinking heavily at that age, but was in denial of any sort of problem.

There's nothing wrong with drinking, just don't drive when you've had too many that's all, I don't drink and drive, I don't drive after drinking until I've had a good nights sleep
Even when I am working, some of the other drivers I work with and I quite often have a few drinks at the bar before going to bed for the night, of course we weren't going to be driving til the morning,
Years ago some of us would bring a case of beer with us and we would drink beer when we parked for the night, we were running out in the middle of nowhere with no bars around, what else were we suposed to do.
I enjoy having a drink after a hard day of work, I don't intend to stop drinking anytime soon.
I'll have a beer or three when I'm on hometime or a 34 restart. Otherwise I don't drink. Also I don't drink anywhere near the truck. The reason being in some states just having keys in the ignition while drunk will get you a DUI. Another reason I don't drink is I was hit by a drunk 4 wheeler. Luckily no one was hurt or killed, but his car was badly damage.

Good shots
GJ's McKnight, Central's McCune take top two spots in shot put at SWL championship meet
With just a smidge more body control, Michael McKnight and Quinton Walton would have had stories about the throws they nailed instead of the ones that got away.
Both Grand Junction High School senior throwers said they had a put of the shot that would have been a personal best if not for scratching by about an inch in each instance.
McKnight won the shot put Friday during the first day of the Southwestern League Championships track and field meet at Stocker Stadium. His winning toss was a respectable 49 feet, 3.25 inches, but he wishes he had kept his foot from sliding out the side of the thrower's ring on a throw he estimates was at least 52 feet.
That would have blown away his personal record of 50-5, which he threw one week earlier at the Tiger Invitational, and landed McKnight a higher seed going into next week's Class 5A state meet, where he finished 12th last year.
As is, McKnight is confident he's returning to state, and he'll look to land that big throw on the biggest stage.
He believes he has a throw of 52 to 54 feet coming.
"I've popped it in practice," he said of that range. "I've been on a roll lately, so it's looking pretty good."
McKnight also said he is peaking at the right time because of the training and conditioning schedule Tigers coach Sean Henry had his throwers on.
Walton said he barely scratched on a throw he believes was a little more than 49 feet. That distance probably would have cemented a berth at state, where the top 18 individuals in each event advance.
Instead, he's on shaky ground with his season-best 47-7.5 ranking 17th in 5A going into this weekend. He'll be hoping no one supplants him this weekend. And Central thrower Mitchell McCune will be hoping for the same, because he uncorked a throw of 47-7.5 on Friday to finish second at the league meet and tie Walton in the state rankings.
Regardless of what happens in the shot put, Walton said his season-best throw in the discus of 149-10 ranks eighth in 5A at the moment. He'll try to better that mark today in the finals.
"Hopefully (today) I can P.R. (get a personal record) and hit anywhere from 150 to 155," he said, adding he's been throwing the discus farther in just about every meet this season.
And at state, he'd like to let fly with one last monster of a throw.
"This is the last thing I'm ever going to do in high school," Walton said, "and I really want to go out with a bang."
Southwestern League
Several other area athletes won events at the SWL meet, which was dominated by preliminaries to set up today's finals.
In the boys meet, Fruita Monument's Chuck Bisbee won the 3,200-meter run in 10 minutes, 1.57 seconds; Grand Junction's Stockton Rock won the high jump, clearing 5-10; and Montrose's Hayden Cook won the 800 in 1:19.19.
In the girls meet, Grand Junction's Erika Meister won the 800 in 2:24.24; and Central's Emily Stull won the 3,200 in 12:05.12.
4A Western Slope League
Among the five boys finals, Brayden Smith of Rifle was the lone area winner. He won the discus with a throw of 142-7.
Likewise, the girls had only one area winner in the six finals as Delta senior Bryanna Music tossed the shot put more than 10 feet farther than the runner-up. Her distance of 43-5 also topped her previous best this season of 42-9, which was the second longest throw in the state, regardless of class, entering the weekend.
3A Western Slope League
Cedaredge scored a pair of event wins in the four boys finals.
Austin Williams won the shot put by more than 18 feet with a toss of 56-8 and Brenden Klaseen won the 800 in 2:03.63 for the Bruins.
In the girls meet, Cedaredge's Kenzie Henderson was the only area winner in the five finals, claiming the high jump by clearing 5-1.
2A/1A Western Slope League
Three different Paonia athletes were victorious in the five boys finals. Jeramiah Hillman won the 800 in 1:59.38, Jason Sturgis won the 3,200 in 10:06.84 and Taylor Walters leapt 21-4.25 to claim the long jump title.
In the girls meet, Hotchkiss won two of the four finals as Natalie Anderson claimed the 3,200 in 11:56.91 and teammate Daryl Batt won the discus with a throw of 116-4.
Meeker's Sydney Hughes won the triple jump with a leap of 32-11.

AMD: SeaMicro Deal Suggests Radical Processor Intentions
Executives from Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) were kind enough to spend some time tonight discussing their intentions for the $334 million acquisition of Silicon Valley startup SeaMicro, announced this evening.
SeaMicro makes servers for data centers that combined hundreds of different processors along with networking and storage and memory and a special "fabric," a means to tie together those multiple processors and get them to perform in concert.
What ultimately becomes clear is that AMD's intentions for selling a myriad of processor types and combinations could be very radical in the world of chip makers.
Lisa Su, AMD's head of products, clarified that the company is in no way looking to compete with its server customers, including Hewlett-Packard (HPQ). Rather, "this acquisition for us is about getting leading-edge into our portfolio, and having server and system-level talent that are very valuable."
"Our goal is not to complete with our customers," she added. "Our OEM customers will be able to add their software and system capabilities, which are really their special sauce, on top of what we do."
Su said AMD had looked around for awhile for the kinds of "micro-server" product line that SeaMicro develops. The company consistently came to the top of the list in AMD's inquiries, said Su.
SeaMicro CEO Andrew Feldman, who will become an AMD executive, said that SeaMicro had distinguished itself from other vendors of micro-server technology, including Calxeda (which is working with HP), and chip maker Applied Micro Circuits (AMCC), in that the company has been delivering product "for more than 18 months, this isn't PowerPoint. We have thousands of servers deployed, millions of hours of production deployments."
Feldman said customers using the SeaMicro micro-servers were getting, on average, 12 times the throughput on compute operations while using only a quarter of the power of other servers and only a sixth of the total rack space as other servers, for comparable work loads.
I asked both executives how many different types of chips the system could eventually incorporate, given that it currently uses Intel (INTC) processors and will start using AMD's "Opteron" processors later this year.
Feldman's response was a rather futuristic, unprecedented move for a chip maker: to combine any kind of core, perhaps any kind of instruction set architecture, in a single semiconductor.
"The strategy at AMD is around having a [system-on-a-chip] SOC that allows you to place an wrapper around all different types of processor cores, to be able to extremly quickly drop in different cores," Feldman tells me.
"If you get the that SOC part right, you have tremendously flexibility, the kind that hasn't been delivered in the server market before by anyone," said Feldman.
"It's really cool. Because to be able to do that means you can move extraordinarily quickly across processor types, which would allow someone with a smaller R&D budget to compete with someone else with a much larger R&D budget."
That's a radical strategy for a chip maker with a traditional profit and loss based upon getting yields right for chips with one single instruction set, in this case x86, and focused on just one or two types of parts -- microprocessors or graphics processors (GPUs).
When I asked if such an SOC might combine different instruction-set architectures on a single die, Feldman didn't commit, but his answer leads me to believe AMD might consider parts that blend not just multiple processor types, but perhaps also blend x86, ARM, MIPS or whatever instruction set is required.

Freeing the Nuclear Industry
In an energy market which is being liberalised, there is a good cause for privatising nuclear power, moving away from the politicised decision-making of the past. Nuclear generators should be placed in a market in which they have to satisfy private shareholders and sell their product in competition with others. But the government's proposals have serious weaknesses. By merging Nuclear Electric and Scottish Nuclear, they suppress competition in ideas and they fail to increase rivalry in the electricity generation sector as a whole. A better devised scheme, retaining two companies but making them more equal in size (and, of course, allowing them to diversify), would have helped correct a fundamental weakness of electricity privatisation – which shows up the ability of the major generators to set prices most of the time.

The Spain international felt his side's victory over Malaga on Thursday could have been by an even greater margin and now has his sights set on yet more silverware
The Catalans beat Malaga 6-4 on aggregate on Thursday night and they will now have to deal with their arch-rivals in the next round.
"We want to win every competition we play in," Busquets told reporters.
"We have to play against Real Madrid in the semi-finals, and we hope to get a good result in the first leg [in Madrid]. And later, here, with our fans cheering us on, we hope to get to the final."
The holding midfielder then reflected on the 4-2 away win over Malaga, and stated that the Blaugrana could have won by an even greater margin.
"The result is fair, in fact we should have won by more," he stated.
"In the first half of the away leg in Barcelona, and today throughout the 90 minutes we could have scored more goals."
Barca resume match action on Sunday when they host Osasuna.

TORONTO, July 23, 2014 /CNW/ - Professional hockey player and Coca-Cola Canada athlete, Steven Stamkos, took the opportunity to share a special moment of hockey happiness with fans and members of Special Olympics Canada's 2013 World Games silver-medal winning floor hockey team today in Toronto. As part of Coca-Cola's Share a Coke program, and to recognize the team's achievements at the 2013 World Winter Games, Stamkos and Special Olympics athletes showed off their hockey prowess to spectators and fans alike.
"It's great to be in my hometown with Coca-Cola, local hockey fans and members of Special Olympics Canada's floor hockey team," said Stamkos from the event in downtown Toronto. "Whether it's a game of shinny or an organized sporting event, hockey is a sport that brings people together - whether they're playing or cheering on from the sidelines."
The event was part of Share a Coke - Coca-Cola's summer campaign that has the company swapping its logo for 290 of Canada's most popular names. Coca-Cola has put names on bottles so people can have fun finding the names of family and friends - or finding a name and sharing a Coke with someone they haven't seen in a while, someone they want to meet, someone they miss, love, have a crush on… and so on.
"Today's event was the perfect representation of our Share a Coke message," said Sonia Bongiorno, Senior Marketing Manager, Coca-Cola Ltd. "Share a Coke is about spending time with loved ones and enjoying special moments of happiness together. Steven is such an inspiration to young athletes and fans and we're thrilled that he could be here today to share a Coke and a moment with all of us."

Life Sciences Professor Martin Schiller to Lead QHS Initiative
Life sciences professor Martin R. Schiller has been appointed executive director of the new UNLV Quantitative Health Sciences Initiative.
The appointment is being announced by the Office of the President, the Office of the Executive Vice President and Provost, and the Vice President for Research and Economic Development.
"Dr. Schiller brings extensive expertise to the leadership of this initiative," said UNLV Vice President for Research and Economic Development Thomas Piechota. "He will help advance an initiative that will bring greater attention to the university's important role in the health of our community and state."
Previous to joining UNLV in 2009, Schiller served on the faculty of The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. He also held postdoctoral fellowships at the University of Maryland College Park and the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, and he has served as a faculty member at the University of Connecticut Health Center. His research is focused on short functional peptides, bioinformatics, and HIV.
Schiller's research has resulted in 60 publications supported primarily by 14 research grants from the National Institutes of Health. He has received a number of awards, produced a suite of bioinformatics tools, and is involved in commercialization of several of his research projects. Schiller holds a bachelor of science degree from Hofstra University and a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Utah State University.
The Quantitative Health Sciences Initiative is designed to build excellence and research services at the university and in the state by leveraging industry partnerships, current strengths at UNLV, and existing infrastructure. The initiative will create much-needed capacity in the areas of data analytics, bioinformatics, and biostatistics, and it will create a centralized expertise cluster at UNLV that will facilitate collaboration on health and medical issues.
The Quantitative Health Sciences Initiative is supported by a $2.5 million grant from the Nevada Governor's Office of Economic Development. The State of Nevada's Knowledge Fund, which was created by the Nevada Legislature, seeks to promote research and the commercialization of that research in areas the state has targeted for economic growth.
"I look forward to leading the Quantitative Health Sciences Initiative," Schiller said, noting that the initiative will be a consortium of UNLV scientists working cooperatively with the goal of advancing applied biomedical science primarily for the purpose of improving health care.

BWW Review: ORLANDO - Go Where It Takes You
In 1928, Virginia Woolf wrote a book, a book about the strange and wondrous life of Orlando, a man who experiences a series of erotic, extraordinary adventures that defy the passage of time and age and gender. Adapted by Sarah Ruhl in 2003, Orlando is a play that, in the sparkling tradition of its parent novel, exists outside the boundaries of conventional storytelling. Orlando is the consort of the aging queen; Orlando falls in overwhelming love with Sasha, the elusive Russian femme fatale; Orlando ponders life in a period of ennui at his lavish estate; Orlando is aggressively pursued by an archduke in drag; Orlando travels to Constantinople and falls into deathlike slumber; Orlando wakes up as a woman.
Recognizable, real-world constructs are present in Orlando, but the ties to reality are ambiguous and abandoned without hesitation. Orlando is a dreamscape, a journey of beauty-a physical expression of the protagonist's self-narrated life story. Tess Plant-Thomas plays Orlando, both male and female, with a sense of honesty and wonder in a life of exploration and discovery. Orlando tells his account in the third-person: the play is not a story, but the retelling of a story, and the story of Orlando is told by Orlando. The layers of storytelling are complex and artistically devised and choreographed. Director Mary Plant-Thomas has created a show that is simultaneously jovial, serene, provocative and innocent.
Orlando's experience is a journey of exploration in which time is boundless. She enjoys several centuries of living, loving, and writing poetry. Gender is fluid, as is sexuality. Morgan Altenhoff, Stephanie Farnum, Rob Grayson, and Erika Leachman play men, play women, and play with the essence of being men, of being woman. Female Orlando discovers that while the power she once wielded as a man has been replaced with a somewhat different set of skills, she is, gender regardless, the same essential person. She takes the metamorphosis in stride, and spends her centuries of ageless existence in an eager meditation on life.
Elements Theatre Collective presents their shows at a number of venues, which gives them the opportunity to make each show unique. I watched Orlando in the dark serenity of the McDermott-Crockett Mortuary. The backdrop for the play sets the tone, and I expect that when Orlando is performed at Divinitree Yoga studio (hopefully against the majestic mural of Hindu Divinity), it will have an interesting tone of its own. Yet, both a mortuary and a yoga studio are places to, like Orlando, consider the fascination of life, to ponder strange, unattainable meaning. A lesson appropriate for this play is the idea of allowance: allowance to love, to grieve, to accept change, and Terry Li, Elements's talented hair and make-up artist, described the experience best: "Just go where it takes you."

ORLANDO, Fla. - An giant oak tree in downtown Orlando was uprooted on Sunday and nearly demolished the roof of a house on Mills Avenue.
The tree started to fall just minutes after homeowner Lee Mason finished mowing his lawn right underneath the gigantic oak.
"I was mowing the lawn and went inside 5 minutes before it fell, so I would have been right under it," Mason said. "It's a lot of tree, so I feel blessed I wasn't there at the time it fell."
It wasn't storming when the tree toppled, but neighbors believe it was the recent rain that weighed the tree down and the roots couldn't hold the weight up the tree upright any longer.
Tree experts say the weather had nothing to do with the tree falling down and that it was just maintained improperly. Neighbors tell Local 6 it's the city that maintained it.

Star Bunny
From the Super Mario Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
Retrieved from "https://www.mariowiki.com/index.php?title=Star_Bunny&oldid=2230577"
Ads keep the MarioWiki independent and free :)
"STAR Bunny, STAR Festival! Yes, I'm sensing a connection here."
Star Bunnies are a type of Rabbit found in the Wii games, Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. Many, but not all, Star Bunnies are actually Lumas which have transformed into Star Bunnies. As seen when they are first encountered, the transformation is two-way and reversible. Star Bunnies appear throughout the galaxies and they most often need to be caught in a game of hide-and-seek. They usually end their sentences with "boiyoing".
Star Bunnies are small white rabbits with long teeth and whiskers. Their fur is completely white except for at the very top of the bunny's ears where there is one yellow star-shaped tip to both of the Star Bunny's ears. Its feet are bigger than its other body parts and its tail is also yellow. In both Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2, some Star Bunnies wear vests (in the latter game, they usually wear Toad vests). A few of them have blue star-shaped tips on their ears instead of bright yellow.
Super Mario Galaxy[edit]
Some Star Bunnies appear in Super Mario Galaxy. They appear in many levels as playful rabbits with the ability to speak and they try to get Mario to play hide and seek with them. The Star Bunnies will hide and Mario (or Luigi) will have to find them and then corner them. They appear in the very first level of the game and then in many levels thereafter as obstacles. In some levels the bunnies do not appear as obstacles but instead as aids for Mario as they give him tips on what to do in the level that he is in. If Mario catches one of the bunnies that play hide and seek, Mario will get a Power Star. In this game their home seems to be the Gusty Garden Galaxy.
Super Mario Galaxy 2[edit]
They appear again in Super Mario Galaxy 2. They are first encountered in the Flip-Swap Galaxy where a blue Star Bunny teaches Mario how to traverse the galaxy's obstacles. They later appear in larger numbers in the Freezy Flake Galaxy where some local Star Bunnies are frightened of the numerous snow-sculptures in the shape of Bowser and his Goombas that have been appearing all over their galaxy. Star Bunnies are also one of the many species that will be found on Starship Mario after completing the Think Before You Shake mission in the Flip-Swap Galaxy. In the Cosmic Cove Galaxy, Mario must catch a Star Bunny which will give him a Power Star after he is caught like in the first game.

People are often surprised when they discover that a church sometimes experiences conflict when they first come to a church. As one young couple confided in me, "We expected everyone to be more loving here."
Such expectations are common. In one popular song, the lyrics go, "Yes, they'll know us by our love." Jesus himself said, "A new commandment I give to you. You shall love one another as I have loved you." (John 13:34)
Yet the reality in many churches is we bring our values into our church. The norm in politics, the media and our own families is often a norm of not just winning, but putting down those who oppose us. After all, there must be something wrong with them.
As a result, when an issue arises in our churches (usually around change) we don't just discuss it, we tend to debate it often with raised voices and an attitude that others are just plain stupid for disagreeing with us. The result is that, a former parishioner once quipped, "We act more like a circular firing squad than a church."
So how do we return to the commandment to "love one another as I have loved you?"
Many churches (including People's Congregational Church) have been rediscovering the idea of "civil discourse." Civil discourse can be defined as engaging in a conversation intended to enhance understanding. Such conversations begin with an attitude of respect for the other person.
But more than that, civil discourse does not diminish the other persons worth nor does it question their judgment. It avoids direct antagonism and hostility. Most important, it requires an appreciation of the other person's experiences and a spirit of openness.
Civil discourse in other words requires some maturity, openness and the desire to listen and learn from the other person. It is a skill that many churches are beginning to teach its members as part of the process of growing and learning to be more loving toward others.
Civil discourse is also a skill that we can all learn and apply to other situations as well. For example, my wife and I recently went on a date to see a movie. I had heard or read about a couple of movies that I wanted to see. My wife however read about a different movie (called "Mud") that received high reviews. Rather than debate who was right, we listened to one another and simply decided to pick the one with the highest reviews.
Of course, her pick won and so that was the movie we went to see. And of course, it was a terrific choice that we spent an hour discussing after the movie ended. Rather than engage in a win-lose battle, we both learned long ago that the best outcome usually occurs when we listen to one another respectfully.
Could civil discourse be something that would benefit you, your family, or the church you attend?
The Rev. Dr. Lanny Kuester is interim pastor at People's Congregational Church in Bayport.

Joint City/County Task Force on Ridge, Slope and Hillside
The Proposed Knoxville-Knox County Hillside and Ridgetop Protection Plan
With adoption, it will be an element of the Knoxville Knox County General Plan, representing policies to provide for protection of hillside and ridgetop areas, while still allowing for development. The proposals for incentives, development guidelines, and land use recommendations are also contained in the plan.
Policy Highlights
In the course of public meetings some participants inquired if the plan was to take the proposed hillside protection area "off the table" for development. This is not the case. The policies were developed to offer a means to foster hillside development that would not be harmful to environmental resources while protecting property rights; those were major guiding principles that were kept in mind collectively by the Task Force and staff in developing and refining the plan.
Major Proposals: the plan calls for several new tools that should be used in future conservation and development practices. In summary, they are:
Public Participation
The City-County Task voted (21-3) to approve the plan in October 2010. The Metropolitan Planning Commission voted (11-2) to approve the plan, including changes as proposed by MPC staff to allow more flexibility in commercial, medium density residential and office uses on December 9th, 2010.

Ginger Newman's Production of SMOKEY JOE'S CAFE Closes Tonight at The Keeton Theater
Showcasing the songs of Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, Ginger Newman directs The Keeton Theatre's production of Smokey Joe's Café April 5- 21, 2012.
The show features thirty nine of the team's songs spanning rock and roll to rhythm and blues including such well known hits as "Hound Dog," "Fools Fall In Love,","I'm A Woman" and "Jailhouse Rock."
Smokey Joe's Cafe is a show features nine performers, who take audiences back to the 1950s and 1960s with their renditions of many wonderful hits of the rock and roll era. Four of the male singers come together to form a group reminiscent of the two famous quartets Leiber and Stoller wrote for-the Drifters and the Coasters-while other cast members deliver songs made famous by some of the most powerful figures in the world of music, including Elvis Presley, Dion and Big Mama Thornton.
Newman's cast includes Bakari King, Elliot Winston Robinson, Patrick Kramer, Jonathan Price, Stanley Stewart, Jamie London, Carol Quinn, Ashley Bishop and Caitlyn Elese Williams. Onstage with the cast is a band comprised of four musicians who have played for many of the top artists: Lee Druce on keyboards, Bob Marinelli on bass, Ed Greene on drums and Ben Graves on guitar, saxophone and and harmonica.
Ginger Newman, is thrilled to be bringing the show to the Keeton stage: "As a director, I have always been drawn to musicals that have great music! Smokey Joe's Cafe is quite simply, just that, a show filled with great music. Songs that we love, we remember, we feel and we want to sing over and over again. Get the perfect musicians all together on one stage and the recipe is complete. We have done that and the pot is simmering. We await your presence at the feast."
Smokey Joe's Cafe will run April 5- 21, with performances on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. Each performance is preceded by a delicious three course meal starting at 6 p.m., with lunch seating at 1 p.m. Tickets are $26 for dinner and show and $21 for show only with a special showonly price of $11 on Thursday nights.
The theater is located at 108 Donelson Pike in the FiftyForward Donelson Station building.

As a defiant response to Sad Desk Lunches, the Food52 team works to keep our midday meals both interesting and pretty. Each week, we'll be sharing our happiest desk lunches — and we want to see yours, too.
Today: Put your office's toaster oven to good use — make yourself some cheese toast.
Your office kitchen likely has a toaster oven, painted Pollock-style with burnt remnants of work lunches past. It is the dark horse of the entire room — and cheese toast is the best thing it can do for you. Because if there is any sort of hole in your heart or unidentifiable yearning in your soul, melted cheese and crispy bread will fill it 99% of the time, spackling the nooks and crannies of your ennui.
Cheese toast — simply a slice of toast topped with melted, just-browned cheese — will solve all your problems.
First, the toast: I like a thick slice of sourdough, which maintains a layer of chew between its crispy faces. Avoid overly hole-y loaves, as cheese will leak through their cracks. Once it's golden, layer it with cheese that melts, then pop it back into your mini-oven until it bubbles and browns. If you'd like to embellish, swipe your bread with mayo or mustard first.
More: If you're working from home, take a few extra minutes and make this Ooey Gooey Toasted Cheese. With mayo.
The result is an open-faced grilled cheese to cure what ails you. For lunch, pair it with a big salad, and you can even call it a balanced meal. But it also makes a mean snack.
Serves 4
Really good crusty bread (I used rosemary sourdough)
1 1/2 cup very sharp cheddar, shredded
1 tablespoon mustard (Dijon or Colman's)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1 pinch thyme
1 teaspoon finely minced onion
1 egg yolk
Black pepper, to taste
- Preheat the broiler. Butter one side of two large (or four small) thick slices of bread and toast under the broiler until brown. Flip them over onto a cookie sheet.
- Mix the remaining ingredients and spread them onto the bread. Return them to the oven and cook for a couple more minutes until puffed, browned, and bubbly. Grind fresh pepper on top.
- I served this with a simple butter lettuce and chive salad with balsamic vinaigrette (aged balsamic, Dijon, olive oil, salt, and pepper). The sweet vinegar and mustard are a great match.
Save and print the recipe on Food52.

Couldn't find a fight, so girl keys car in O.B.
"She backed up into my boss's car, then got out and scratched his car
Delinda Lombardo 11:30 a.m., Sept. 26
Week 10 High Five
Olympian (5-3, 2-0 Metro Mesa) at #5 Eastlake (6-2, 2-0) Friday 7 p.m.
For the past four seasons the South Bay's best league has belonged to Eastlake, and the Titans are again the team to beat after winning their first two Metro Mesa League games by an average of 29 points. Eastlake appears to have recovered from its midseason swoon heading into a first place showdown against Olympian in the Game of the Week. Olympian jumped to the Metro Mesa this season after winning the Metro Pacific in 2010 and hasn't missed a beat so far, winning games against Otay Ranch and Chula Vista for an unbeaten start. On its current four-game winning streak Olympian has allowed an average of eight points per game, but the Eagles will have their hands full against an Eastlake offense full of speed. Though Eastlake and Olympian have lost a combined five games, those losses have come to teams with a combined 37-3 record. Will Eastlake continue its dominance of the South Bay or can Olympian usher in a changing of the guard?
Best of the Rest
Point Loma (6-2, 3-0 Western) at #8 Madison (8-0, 3-0) Friday 7 p.m.
Though Madison moved to the Western League last season, it hasn't taken the Warhawks long to make themselves at home – Madison won the league title in 2010 and is a perfect 8-for-8 since the switch. The Warhawks' biggest threat to running the table is Point Loma, and the Pointers come into the first place matchup with four wins in their last five games. Both teams have playmakers across the field, including quick running backs Pierre Cormier (Madison) and Jaivon Griffin (Point Loma) and this one could be a high-scoring affair. The winner clinches at least a share of the Western League championship.
Hilltop (4-4, 1-0 South Bay) at Mar Vista (7-1, 1-0) Friday 7 p.m.
Led by its run-heavy Double Wing offense, Mar Vista has been one of the biggest surprises this season. It's no secret that Mar Vista likes to run – the Mariners have only attempted nine passes all season – but only Patrick Henry has solved them so far. Hilltop is Mar Vista's biggest obstacle to a second consecutive Metro South Bay League title, and the Lancers head to Imperial Beach winners of three in a row after a 1-4 start. Mar Vista hasn't tasted league defeat since the Metro South Bay was formed last season, a short streak that included a 40-27 win against Hilltop.
#3 Poway (7-0-1, 2-0 Palomar) at Torrey Pines (4-4, 2-1) Friday 7 p.m.
After watching Torrey Pines clinch the Palomar League title on its turf last year, Poway has the opportunity to return the favor against the Falcons this season. The Titans have made it halfway to a league title in comfortable fashion, and can clinch a share of the Palomar crown with a win against a Torrey Pines team that has won two straight and three of its last four. Poway has shown the ability to score points in bunches, and the Titans have won their first two league games by an average of 29 points. This should be a physical game that will be won on the ground.
Mt. Carmel (5-3, 2-1 Palomar) at Westview (5-3, 1-2) Friday 7 p.m.
Few rival schools in the section are closer than Mt. Carmel and Westview, who sit less than three miles apart along the 56 Highway. These neighbors have met every year since 2003, and the series has played close with the Sundevils owning a 5-3 advantage – including wins in each of the past two seasons. Though not league mates, no extra motivation will be needed in this game between teams that will be tough outs when the playoffs roll around.
In the Red Zone
Hoover (5-3, 2-1 Western) at Mission Bay (3-4-1, 1-2) Friday 2:30 p.m.
Francis Parker (4-3-1, 2-1 Coastal) at Santa Fe Christian (7-1, 3-0) Saturday 2 p.m.

Ask a Mechanic Online and Get Answers to Your Car Questions
I would check to see if you are getting spark when this condition happens
I have seen many fuel filters and most if not all appear to be empty even with the engine running .
If you still think it is fuel next time this happens try giving the engine a squirt of starting fluid the engine should run for a few seconds if it is a fuel problem.
Heat soak problems usually turn out to be ignition related, so check for spark next time.
Engine may try and run when it gets a little flurrie of spark too
Vapor lock went out in the ealy 60's
Ignition Switch An ignition switch with worn contacts can cause a loss of voltage to the ignition system and cause the engine to stall while driving.
Igniter An igniter that fails intermittently will cause a loss of spark and can cause the engine to stall while driving.
Engine Wire Harness An engine wire harness that has a poor connection or has a broken wire that is affected by road vibration can cause the engine to stall while driving.
Hot Air Induction System A hot air induction system malfunction in cold damp weather will cause the carburetor to ice up and can cause the engine to stall while driving.
Search didn't turn up much, my money is on the igniter
But you're going to have to do some testing to get to bottom of your problem.
The starting fluid will confirm your fuel theory.
Once you get it narrowed down to spark or fuel post back and I will try to help with diagnosis.

SLEEPS camp leaves plaza after closure order
This is a developing story. Watch your local TV news and this website for more on this story
EUGENE, Ore. - The Wayne Morse Free Speech Plaza outside the Lane County Courthouse is empty, blocked off to the public by an emergency order of the Lane County Commission.
The SLEEPS protest camp that prompted the commission to vote 4-1 to close the plaza has moved to the old federal courthouse.
The commission voted after a report from the county health officer raised concerns about sanitation and public safety at the camp.
In enforcing the county's closure Wednesday, Eugene Police cited and released three people and arrested one person on charges of second degree criminal trespass.
County Commissioners can still see the protest camp across the street at its new location.
"Like the County Courthouse, this is a traditional place to protest," said Commissioner Pat Farr. "I do know in the past the federal government has not been very amenable to people spending the night there."
Far said sanitation costs incurred by the county while the protesters camped in the plaza hit $5,000, with final cleanup expected to cost more. He hoped the cleanup would be complete before the weekend so the county could reopen the plaza to the public.
One protester said the closure and cleanup were overdue.
"It did need to happen and there were sanitations issues, and that's what happens when people come from the outside and are very passionate," said Jai Veda with AWAKE, a protest group that joined SLEEPS on a lot near the courthouse.
Veda said his group as signed a pact with SLEEPS to combine as one group of homeless protesters.
Not all the people in the plaza were homeless, like Michael McFadden, who was cited for trespassing when he refused to leave the plaza Wednesday night.
"Because the order to close the plaza isn't legal and doesn't respect the rights of any Oregonians or Lane County residents to express their opinion on public property" he said.
Protesters said Thursday that they are going to stay put until they find a safe, legal place to sleep.
