Poet Richard Fox gains insight – and material – through cancer treatment
A family faces cancer in an unfamiliar city – with help
Choosing mastectomy or not: Studying young women's surgical choices
Jeff's targeted therapy has kept his advanced lung cancer at bay.
When meeting one recent morning on Dana 16, the two oncologists could not come to a consensus. Lacking any proper documentation to review, they had only their own memories to serve them.
"You were just a tot of 5 or 6 the first time you did Saturday rounds with me," said the first doctor. "I used to baby-sit, and you'd hide behind my white coat."
"You never baby-sat!" his colleague replied with a laugh. "And there's no way I was that young."
While these Dana-Farber physicians can't decide exactly when their professional collaboration began, they do agree it's stronger than ever. Erica Mayer, MD, MPH, on staff with the Breast Oncology Program since 2006, was the little girl who tagged along with her father Robert J. Mayer, MD, when he visited patients back in the 1970s and '80s (not an entirely uncommon practice then). Bob is now director of the Center for Gastrointestinal Oncology, and the two regularly see each other at meetings and exchange patient insights. Both also serve on the admissions committee for Harvard Medical School.
It's an enjoyable arrangement, and one that seemed destined to occur. Bob Mayer, himself the son of a physician, joined Dana-Farber's faculty in July 1974 when his elder daughter Erica was four months old. His wife, Jane Mayer, LICSW, became director of the social work department at neighboring Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and Erica and her sister Rachel went to The Winsor School just across the street. The family's involvement with Dana-Farber grew more when Jane joined the Friends of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, an all-volunteer organization for which she has chaired the Art and Environment Committee for the past decade.
While Jane made it a point to attend the girls' sports games and other activities, Bob, unfortunately, often missed them while traveling. This made the time Erica spent with him during his weekend rounds that much more special, as it gave them a chance to bond and fueled her growing passion for medicine and science.
The experience made a deep impression. "I enjoyed seeing the interaction between my father and his patients - and was impressed by the close connections he developed with them," says Erica. "It was clear how much the patients benefited from such personalized care."
Although she says her father never tried to influence her decisions, she attended his undergraduate alma mater (Williams College) and worked in a lab at Dana-Farber's pediatric partner, Children's Hospital Boston, during collegiate summers. Then, after a year teaching English in Japan, she attended Harvard Medical School - just as her dad had.
Potential conflicts of interest arose after Erica finished HMS. Bob sits on the decision-making committees for Brigham and Women's Hospital's Internal Medicine residency program, as well as Dana-Farber's fellowship program (the latter of which he has chaired for more than 20 years). Erica sought inclusion to both in a four-year span; in each case Bob stepped aside and let others decide her fate, and she was selected for both programs.
Once she was on the job as a fellow at Dana-Farber in 2003, Erica says her colleagues eliminated any awkwardness. "They never treated me differently despite my father being the fellowship director," she explains. "I was lucky to have trained with some pretty incredible young doctors at Dana-Farber." But while all other Dana-Farber fellows meet at least twice a year with Bob Mayer to discuss their progress and future goals, he and Erica agreed this would not work in her case. "That was definitely frustrating," she says. "People come to this fellowship to gain from the mentorship and guidance of Bob Mayer, but I had to find alternative guidance [with another physician leader] during my training."
Now, with these challenges behind them, their relationship is stronger and more open-ended than ever. They can see each other at work or at home - they both live in Newton, just three miles apart - and joke that the only one who puts any restrictions on how much they "talk shop" is Jane Mayer. Erica, who is married to Doug Drachman, MD, an interventional cardiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital, balances the demands of her job in the Breast Oncology Center with being the mother of two young children. By choosing a different field to focus on from her fathers, she is forming her own "niche" at Dana-Farber.
"They share certain qualities - innate intelligence, perseverance, attention to detail, commitment to the patients, but they also are very different people," says Eric Winer, MD, director of the Breast Oncology Program and Erica's mentor. "I think Bob is a truly remarkable and wonderful individual, but carbon copies don't work. Erica is both similar enough and different enough from her father to be her own remarkable and wonderful self."

Why GIFs help make good stories
As Twitter prepares to celebrate its tenth birthday, its influence on journalism is significant. As part of a series leading up to its tenth birthday, SPJ Digital is looking at Twitter's influence, as well as best practices and advice.
Here, Randi Shaffer of the Chicago Tribune explores the rise of GIFs, and as news of tests emerge on Twitter, why they can become valuable in telling a story.
News isn't static. So the way that we share it shouldn't be, either.
That's why media outlets use a combination of tools — such as words, photos, videos and social media — to tell a story. One of those tools — GIFs — is becoming a lot more commonplace in the digital storytelling word.
Mashable reported that Twitter recently started beta testing a new feature: a keyboard that allows the user to easily access a range of GIFs browse-able by category or search bar. The feature makes inserting a GIF into a tweet just as easy as inserting an emoji.
The GIF button is awesome for people who love using GIFs to tell a story, like some of us here at the Chicago Tribune.
The Tribune has used GIFs on its social platforms to tell stories on multiple occasions. During the Blackhawks' 2015 run to the Stanley Cup, our digital team posted several well-received Ron Swanson GIFs along with post-game score recaps.
While Nick Offerman has absolutely nothing to do with post-season hockey, the Parks and Rec character is over-the-top expressive. Using GIFs of Swanson's reactions was a great way to emulate the anxiety, joy and frustration felt during the roller coaster-ride of a playoff series.
It's not just Twitter. GIFs work great for telling stories on other social media platforms that the Tribune has a presence on. The head of our social media team — my boss, Social Media Editor Scott Kleinberg, has been pretty proactive about experimenting with new social app Peach. He uses GIFs — along with more traditional mediums — to tell stories on the platform.
Kleinberg said he uses GIFs when sharing personal and professional content on multiple social media platforms.
"GIFs make storytelling fun," he said. "While some stories always have to be told straight, not all do. And the ones that don't that lack compelling art can really benefit from a fun GIF."
Even if a GIF isn't directly related to the story at hand, like in the Blackhawks/Ron Swanson example, the emotion of the GIF is a great way to capture and express the emotion of a thought or story.
Whitney Carlson, another social media assistant here at the Tribune, created our Tumblr page in mid-2014. Carlson said she relies heavily on GIFs for an engaging following, since they're more dynamic than a photo and less of a time investment than a video.
"They're useful on Tumblr, especially, where the audience is younger and greatly appreciates pop culture references," she explained. "The perfectly placed GIF can capture the attention of people on your website or social platform, and on the fast-paced Internet, capturing someone's attention, even if just for a few seconds, is a feat."
GIFs work for the Tribune off social media, too.
Earlier this month, we ran a story about "The Strandbeest", a moving sculpture in downtown Chicago. Tribune Video Editor Brian Nguyen said pairing a GIF with the story was a natural fit for the nature of the content.
"The still images didn't do the story justice because it's all about how these sculptures move," he explained. "The GIF allowed us to show the sculpture in motion without taking the reader out of the written part of the story."
GIFs work well to bridge the gap between photos and videos. They allow the storyteller to illustrate moments — like photos – while providing additional visual context — like videos.
"(GIFs condense) a lot of information into a looping, immediate and accessible form," Nguyen said. "There's less friction between the GIF and the reader than the video."
Because logistical barriers to using and consuming GIFs are rapidly dwindling, media outlets should embrace GIFs, Nguyen added.
The once-tedious process of making a GIF has become commonplace, so now, the only challenge with using a GIF is identifying and creating an editorial process for it.
"If you look at GIFs as a culture rather than a file format, you'll see hugely innovative ways of storytelling," Nguyen said, echoing Carlson's thoughts.
That's also how I use GIFs personally. I love the GIF keyboard function in Facebook Messenger. Having it so easily accessible makes it easier to convey emotion — especially in a text medium, where heavy sarcasm can often have unintended consequences.
A perfectly placed Krysten Ritter eye roll takes only a few seconds to find, send and loop, and the entire experience adds a whole new level of context to a text-only conversation.
And, when you only have 140 characters to tell a story on Twitter, easy access to a context-enhancing GIF keyboard is a welcome addition.

Looking for a better terminal emulator.
I recently installed IceWM, which uses xterm as the terminal emulator. I don't like xterm's scroll bar and tried using the gnome-terminal. While it's scroll bar is better (line by line vs. pages), I don't want to borrow out of the Gnome parts bin for another wm. Does anyone know of a good stand-alone terminal emulator with a normal scroll bar?
xterm can scroll line by line and by page
shift-arrow line
shift-pgup/pgdown page
if that's what u want..
I've never tried it, but aterm or eterm might be more of what you want.
i use aterm and it works fine apart from a few things i can't work out for the life of me, like why it *always* scrolls on tty output even when you tell it not to which is really really annoying, it is based on xterm code, but with user friendly tweaks, and a more normal scrollbar to boot. i'm after something better too though and can't find what i want. Eterm is OTT for what it's meant to be and the menubars and such are ugly and always insists on some silly background...
Ok, I've got the eterm binary in an rpm. Where does it go? In a /bin directory, an /sbin directory, or will rpm put it where it should go? Next question is "Which /bin or /sbin directory do I put it in?"
I've read the filesystem hirarchy standard, but that doesn't seem to help. I've just never been able to find a good rule for where things should go.
The rpm will put it where it needs to go.

I wouldn't suggest anyone led this climb as it, the bolts are very old and rusty. I wouldn't trust them to catch a fall, but you never know until you try I guess.
The climbs works well as a top-rope. To me it's not worthy of the time and materials to re-bolt. Just scramble around and tr it.

How to prevent an environmental heart attack
The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) is in the midst of an aggressive program to reduce and/or eliminate the fats, oils and grease – or FOG for short – from getting into your sewer system and clogging the sewer pipelines throughout Montgomery and Prince George counties.
The WSSC FOG Program is a two-part "preventive medicine" plan to systematically regulate the food service establishment industry and educate the residential community about the proper treatment and disposal of these 'cholesterol-type' materials that build-up and clog sewer pipes resulting in back-ups and sanitary sewer overflows.
What exactly does a clogged sewer pipe look like? Watch this video to find out!
While food services have the greatest potential to produce mass quantities of FOG, the majority of grease-related incidents within the WSSC sewer system are not even located near a food service establishment. And, most of the time, the nearest establishments are in compliance with their FOG capture, treatment and disposal requirements.
This means everyone needs to pay more attention to what they are letting slip down the drain at their home, apartment, condominium or other residence.
The WSSC "Can the Grease" program provides the safe and effective alternative to pouring or disposing of most food items that contain fat, oil or grease down your drain that will eventually either cause a clog in your home, or a raw sewage overflow in the WSSC sewer system.
WSSC encourages everyone to follow these basic 'best management practices" in their kitchen:
- Do not pour, scrape, or otherwise dispose of fats, oils, or grease into sinks or drains.
- Scrape pots and pans prior to washing. Dispose of scrapings via composting or in the trash, as applicable.
- If the food scrapings include residual oil or grease, pour into a can, cap the can (caps available from WSSC), freeze it so it solidifies, then dispose of the can on trash day.
- If it doesn't contain many food particles, collect your cooled fryer oil in an empty plastic carton to be taken to a local recycling center.
- Do not put food – including liquid food like milk shakes, syrups, batters, and gravy – down the drain.
- Do not "feed" your garbage disposal; it doesn't get hungry! This includes pouring grease into it or large quantities of food waste.
Be like the Feasty Boys and do your part to keep our sewers clean. Can the Grease!
Thanks to WSSC Staff (Sandy August, Lyn Riggins and Wayne Ludwig) for contributing this blog.

Barbra Streisand may bring 'Gypsy' to the big screen
Looks like "Little Fockers" won't be the last time you see Barbra Streisand on the big screen.
The legendary actress and singer is in negotiations to direct, produce and play the starring role of Mama Rose in a film adaptation of the classing 20th Century musical "Gypsy," according to a report by the New York Post.

Babs even has the blessing of Broadway legend Arthur Laurents, now 92, who penned the original book "Gypsy" in 1959.
"Barbra and I have been getting along very well now for some time," Laurents told Michael Riedel of the New York Post. "We've talked about it a lot, and she knows what she's doing. She has my approval."
And it sounds like Streisand has the right personal experience to do justice to the role of the obsessed stage mother Mama Rose.

"She had a mother who she always thought was Mama Rose," explains Laurents in the article. "I don't want to get into the details, but the point is she knows. She's got it in her. She's going to be much more than people expect."
Though Laurents says he won't be involved in writing the script, he hints that he will be involved in some capacity by saying, "Hollywood is Hollywood, and I've already been there. But I'll be around."
Streisand and Laurents have worked together in the past, first in 1962, when Laurents directed Streisand's Broadway debut for "I Can Get It for You Wholesale," and later when he penned "The Way We Were" for the actress.

Laurents shares the rights to "Gypsy" with lyricist Stephen Sondheim, and the estates of composer Jule Styne and original director Jerome Robbins. "Gypsy" was first adapted for the screen in 1962.
"We're talking about 'Gypsy' being a bookend for us," he told the New York Post. "She began with me, and this will be a grand farewell for us."
Sounds like the perfect ending to a long and illustrious professional relationship.

Redshirt freshman Lamar Patterson was charged by Manheim Township police, Lancaster County, following an alledged incident in his hometown in which he is accused of leaving a restaurant without paying his bill.
Pitt officials said they are aware of the incident and are reviewing the situation, but could not make any further comment. They didn't want to speculate on Patterson's status for Saturday's game against Cincinnati.

He did more than all the PR frims on Madison Avenue…
I parked in West Los Angeles the other day and was walking across the street as a PEO (That's parking enforcement officer to you) walked up to a car with an expired meter. He said: "Is this your car?" I said no, that I was parked at the paid meter across the street. I then asked him that if it was my car, would he have written a citations. He said "No, that's why I asked. If it was yours, I would have let it slide." I asked him if he did that always and he said "yes" that if someone was walking up, he didn't write the citation.
At that moment an "old dear" – as they say in the UK – walked up and asked if he had any change for the meter. He said — "No m'am, but you can use a credit card. However if you want to go in and get some change, I'll make sure you cars OK until you get back." I didn't ask, but I'm convinced that if she didn't come back right away (she was moving slowly) he would have given her a 'pass' too.
He was considerate, kind, and helpful. Almost the antithesis of what we are told PEOs are. My guess is that he is more the rule than the exception. I tried to get his picture, but after the famous 'porn' scandal in LA, he was understandably camera shy.
This fellow, in that few minutes, did a great PR job for parking and the city of LA. That's what we need, more officers like this one. My fear, however, is that the "exception" will show up, and in two grouchy sentences erase all the good my friend did that day.
One Response to He did more than all the PR frims on Madison Avenue…
JVH, you need to come visit our fair city. This is a routine, daily occurence for our PEO staff. The goal here is compliance, not enforcement.

Priscilla Book
Club News
The Priscilla Book Club met at the Lincolnton home of Suzanne Peeler on April 18 at 3 p.m.
Fourteen members were served Key lime pie and coffee.
President Sarah Lantz thanked the hostess and invited the group to share news. Members received an update on honorary members, Avis Peeler and Sarah Stroup. Vicki Yoder and Kay Barefoot are looking forward to becoming grandmothers.
Judy Holland has returned from her trip to Italy. She announced that she is interested in compiling a concise history of the Priscilla Book Club.
Collaborating with Judy on the project will be Suzanne Peeler, who has Avis Peeler's journal.
For her literary moment, Mrs. Lantz continued her theme of featuring authors in the media.
She spotlighted the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer and author of several best-selling books, Rick Bragg, who is featured monthly in Southern Living magazine.
For April, Bragg wrote several satiric thank-you letters after being advised by his wife that he should express his gratitude.
President Lantz shared the letter addressed to "Dear Mr. Telemarketer."
The minutes of the March meeting were read by recording secretary, Nelva Goodson, and approved. Vicki Yoder, treasurer, reported a financial balance of $195.04.
Corresponding secretary Suzanne Peeler reported that Easter cards were sent to honorary members.
With no further business, the meeting was turned over to the program leader, Elizabeth Leatherman, who reviewed the young adult novel "Mockingbird" by Kathryn Erskine. The book deals with the subject of Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism.
Because her 13-year-old daughter has Asperger's, Erskine was led to research the disease.
The story, told in first-person by a middle schooler, reveals the inner working of the mind of one with Asperger's.
They are different and do not see the world as others do. They are literal-minded, and their lives must have structure.
President Lantz thanked Mrs. Leatherman for the wonderful, informative program.
In closing, Mrs. Lantz read two stanzas of "Paul Revere's Ride" by Longfellow.
The date of the memorable ride was April 18, 1775.
Kay Barefoot will be hostess for the May business meeting.
Upon leaving, everyone was given a white daisy, the club's flower, by the hostess.

Many dairies are of the notion that unionization could never happen to them. But at least one union has the goal of turning the dairy industry into a union-dominated industry, says Anthony Raimondo, agriculture labor law attorney with McCormick Barstow in Fresno, Calif. And no dairy, no-matter the size or location, is exempt.
If you find out about a union election on your operation, it's too late and you're probably not going to win, says Patrick Johnston, owner of Rocking S Dairy in Modesto, Calif. And he speaks from experience. A union vote was set at his operation two years ago and he had exactly one week to campaign against it. The union had been courting his employees for months, unbeknownst to him.
You really can't stop a union, Raimondo says, but you can try to make it unappealing to the employees. For example, talk to employees about the benefits that they have, and remind them that with a union, they could find themselves paying mandatory dues just to keep the same wages and benefits that they already enjoy.
Here are four things you can do to try and protect yourself from the union.
Review payroll and recordkeeping practices
Make sure your payroll and recordkeeping practices comply with applicable laws. A union will exploit any errors by employers to the union's advantage and will press for financial settlements. The union exploits these errors and can threaten to sue with unfair-labor-practice lawsuits unless the dairy agrees to the union.
For example in California, all non-exempt employees (most dairy employees other than supervisors) must record the time that they start work, the time they stop for a meal break, the time they return from a meal break, and the time that they finish their shift.
Too many dairies continue to pay employees on a salary- basis without paying additional overtime, says Raimondo. California law prohibits including overtime in a salary, and overtime must be paid above and beyond the employee's salary any time the employee works more than 10 hours a day, or when the employee works seven consecutive days in the same work week.
Maintain competitive wages and benefits for your area. If you are paying less than other people in your area, this can breed resentment and make your dairy an even more attractive target for unionization.
Communicate with your workforce
Hold regular meetings with your employees to facilitate communication. Include time for comments and concerns during each meeting. This will open the door to two-way communication and encourage employees to bring their concerns to the dairy manager rather than turn to a union.
Listen to what employees are saying. If there are things you can fix and improve, then work to improve them, says Raimondo. It shows that you are willing to listen. If you don't know the answer to something, go find the answer. If you come back with an answer, it shows the employees that you listened. If employees don't feel they are being heard, they will go to whoever does listen.
Make sure herdsman and supervisors understand that their jobs are not just about production, but also labor relations. It's not necessarily a conflict with the owner, but a conflict at the management or supervisor level that drives someone to a union, says a California dairy producer who is in labor negotiations and wishes to remain anonymous. "As the owner, you might not have full grasp of the situation," he says. This is the situation that this dairyman believes brought the union to his operation in the recent past.
Most union-organizing campaigns are not driven by the desire to increase wages, but rather feelings of mistreatment or frustration at the perception that employees have no voice.
"Treatment issues are far and away a much bigger issue," says Raimondo. These can be either real or perceived treatment issues. They usually fall somewhere in the middle. A union often exploits feelings of dissatisfaction to the employer's disadvantage.
Require all visitors to sign in
Protocols should be in place to control access at the dairy.
Whenever possible, all visitors should be required to sign in at the dairy office before conducting any business at the dairy. And, that includes everyone. If you don't make the veterinarian do it, don't expect the union to do it either, says Raimondo.
At a minimum, "no trespassing" signs should be posted around the operation's perimeter. "No access" signs should be posted in the milk barn, calf-care areas, hospital barns and maternity areas.
Document deficient performance
Make sure that you add disciplinary actions or deficient-performance notices to employee personnel files. Too many dairies still do not document discipline and deficient performance by workers, says Raimondo.
Without a history of documented disciplinary action, it may not be possible to discipline or discharge problem workers.
And, last but not least, it is important to become familiar with laws governing union organization in your state.

In a world where flame retardants show up in sports drinks and wood pulp passes for cereal, you might hope that at least something as simple as coffee might stay clean.
And yet. Brazilian scientists have developed a new way of testing coffee grounds for fillers like corn, sticks (yep, as in wood), barley, and soybeans. The test, which detects the presence of sugars that wouldn't normally be in pure java, is being presented at this week's annual American Chemical Society meeting. (Previously, the best way we had to detect impurities in ground coffee was to examine the grinds with a microscope. Kind of quaint, right?)
You may unsubscribe at any time.
OK, great, so now we have this high-tech test. But who knew we even needed to worry about added junk that'll mess with the taste of our coffee and—much, much worse!—dilute its precious caffeine content?
"Adulterated coffee is something I've suspected in some work I've done in Russia and the Middle East, where there's an extreme price point set for consumer products," says Andrew Hetzel, a coffee industry consultant who leads training courses for the Coffee Quality Institute.
MORE: So Not Cool—Coffee Linked To Hot Flashes
Mercifully, junked up joe isn't a problem here at home. For now. Thanks to drought, coffee production in Brazil—the world's largest grower—is down nearly 10% this year. And if climate change puts the majority of the world's coffee supply at risk, as one recent report suggests could happen by 2080, the results would be a matter of simple economics: Coffee prices would rise, tempting more manufacturers to bulk up their product with fillers to avoid losing money.
Still, even though a coffee catastrophe is probably years away, it's always a smart idea to know where your foods—and beverages—are coming from (not to mention this a good reminder to go easier on the planet; these 70 tiny green tips couldn't be easier to add to your routine). "If you can buy your beans from a local coffee shop or online directly through a coffee roaster, that's good. The closer you can get to the source, the better off you'll be," says Hetzel.

RALEIGH — If there's any value to a winless conference record and an eight-game losing streak, N.C. State coach Dave Doeren is determined to find it.
RALEIGH — If there's any value to a winless conference record and an eight-game losing streak, N.C. State coach Dave Doeren is determined to find it.
The Wolfpack gets back to work today in the first football practice of Doeren's second season after a disappointing 3-9 debut ended with the program's first winless ACC season since 1959.
But Doeren, who has found more early success on the recruiting trail, wants his players to learn from the problems of the 2013 season, not forget them.
"I really think we're a mentally tougher team because of what we went through a year ago," Doeren said last month at the ACC Kickoff in Greensboro.
There were injuries, losses, a little controversy (hello, Clemson) and a lot of tested patience last season for Doeren. The big question now is will there be a payoff?
The main issues facing the Wolfpack in training camp as it prepares for the season-opener against a dangerous Georgia Southern team Aug. 30:
1) Getting Jacoby Brissett up to speed
No one has higher expectations for Jacoby Brissett, who sat out last season after transferring from Florida, than he does.
Brissett wants to be great, and he showed big-play potential in the spring (365 yards, two touchdowns).
But, as Doeren warned at the ACC Kickoff: "He hasn't played a ton of college football."
Brissett started three games in two seasons for the Gators and completed 41 of 74 passes for 455 yards with three touchdowns and four interceptions.
The redshirt junior is expected to be a significant upgrade from last year's starters (Brandon Mitchell and Pete Thomas), but the former top 100 recruit out of West Palm Beach, Fla., still needs some reps.
If the Wolfpack is going to have more success in 2014, he's also going to need help on offense.
2) Building an offensive line
Essentially since Philip Rivers' last game in 2003, N.C. State's offensive line has been, at minimum, an issue and its worst, a downright "Code Red."
There are no quick fixes on the line, and as the Wolfpack has uniquely proven — with so many high-end quarterbacks in a short period of time — you can only go so far without a great line.
The return of fifth-year senior left tackle Rob Crisp, who missed all but one game last season with concussion issues, should help. So should the addition of freshman center Tony Adams, an early enrollee who shone during spring practice.
But building the quality of the line, and the necessary depth, will ultimately determine Doeren's long-term success. That type of project takes time, and usually involves some growing pains, but the potential is there to start the process this season.
3) Defensive fundamentals
N.C. State was outscored 107-48 in the first quarter last season. Turnovers contributed to the problem, but when you're getting jumped out of the gate, you have to go back to basic fundamentals, namely tackling.
The Wolfpack defense allowed a staggering average of 5.68 yards per rushing attempt in ACC play. That's way too much and it's why Doeren put such a focus in recruiting on the defensive line.
There are a number of veteran defensive linemen back from last season, but don't be surprised if Doeren gives his younger prospects a long look and gives them a chance to develop.
The switch to a base nickel defense, with five defensive backs, means linebackers M.J. Salahuddin and Jerod Fernandez will need to be productive in camp and get more support from safeties Hakim Jones, Josh Jones and Germaine Pratt.

Many families in Nashville are cashing in on Music City's growing popularity.
Nashville resident Deborah Ezell is getting messages from all over the world from travelers who want to rent her Nashville home for a summer vacation.
"A lot people want to come just to explore the Country Music Hall of Fame, Grand Ole Opry and downtown Nashville," she said.
Ezell listed her home on a Web site called Airbnb, which lets anybody put their spare couch, room or house up for rent.
Guests have the opportunity to book lodging for a fraction of the price of a hotel room.
Airbnb released a report Thursday showing they are flooded with interest about Music City.
According to the site, Nashville ranks first in the United States as the fastest growing summer destination for 2014. Its popularity is up 365% over this time last year.
Ezell said when it comes to letting people into your house, homeowners have to use their best judgment.
"There are times when I have turned people down. You have to trust your instincts and get a feel for the questions they're asking," she explained.
In Nashville, hundreds of families have their homes listed on the Airbnb site.
"We have met so many cool people from South Africa, Australia, Germany and lots of Canadians," Ezell said.

By Joe Haggerty
BOSTON Dennis Seidenberg wasnt naming names, but the veteran defenseman has seen plenty of hockey coaches get rattled right before his eyes in his seven-plus seasons in the NHL.
The game situation speeds up, panic sets in, and the harried coach starts relying too heavily on a handful of players he trusts while burning out his team when things go awry around him.
That kind of unhinged phenomenon has an unavoidably negative effect on the players, and starts to tighten everybody up as things spin out of control. At the moment of truth in a playoff game, its a team's worst nightmare. And it can be a coaching staff killer.
When a coach is rattled, he makes decisions and overplays guys because of panic; he wants to put his best players out there, said Seidenberg. From there, extraordinary things start to happen and from there on it just kind of snowballs.
Some might have expected to see Claude Julien get rattled in the first round of the Bruins' playoff run this year. His job was presumed to on the line; it was fully expected that he (and perhaps general Peter Chiarelli) would be dismissed if the team had an early playoff ouster.
Yet he never panicked, not even after the Bruins lost the first two games of the series -- at home, no less -- and headed to Montreal facing elimination.
Thats why the Bs have lived to fight many other days since then.
Im sure people thought if we didnt make it past the first round then something was going to happen with the coaching staff, but winning the last two rounds has made everyone in the organization happy, said Seidenberg. I think getting past where youve ever been before gives you some confidence and gratification.
We knew we hadnt played anywhere close to as good as we could have. After the first two games everyone was thinking, Oh, God, the firings are going to happen, but the coaching staff never lost that calmness.
"It helped a lot. They always kept telling us they believed in us. It definitely helps to have a coach thats got calmness and composure getting through those situations.
A coaching staff that certainly knew its careers hung in the balance approached the rest of the series with a calm resolve that the situation would get turned around. Most importantly, Julien never once let anybody see him sweat.
That approach, and the innovative decision to bring his hockey club to Lake Placid in the middle of the Montreal series, helped settle things down, and theyve won eight of nine games since that start.
The series victories over the Canadiens and the Flyers have won some measure of job security for Julien and the other members of the staff, and high compliments from Bruins president Cam Neely. Even the woeful power play has begun producing with goals in each of their last two playoff games, and a swagger has returned to those both sitting on the bench . . . and standing behind it.
Julien tells a story of once asking Hall of Famer Scotty Bowman for advice about coaching, and the one thing that stuck with Julien was Bowmans words about adapting and changing with the game. The Bs coach has done just that after learning from failed assignments in Montreal and New Jersey prior to Boston.
Some of Juliens evolution as a coach owes a debt to the pressure exerted by Neely, who has pushed Julien to shorten his bench, open things up with the defensemen to promote scoring, and wield ice time with some level of authority when effort is a question mark.
That willingness to change with the team and the importance of preaching a consistent message to his players, in good times and bad, is one of Juliens biggest strengths, and its also the reason he was now able to lead the Bruins into the third round of the playoffs.
Some called for a punitive bag skate at the tail end of the regular season after a deflating loss to the Maple Leafs in Toronto at the Air Canada Centre, and others were simply waiting for the bottom to drop out during the playoffs. But Julien never fully cracked the whip.
His players fully appreciated the steady course of action and Juliens tacit confidence in them.
I think first of all as a coach, thats what youre hired to do: to make sure that you dont overreact and youve got to stay the course, said Julien. Youve got to make sure you stay in control. And if you do that, youre allowing your players a better balance.
Youve got to believe in yourselves once you get to this stage, and you should never panic no matter what the situation is . . . I think . . . an important lesson and message to give your players is that anything is possible. And our players obviously stayed the course, and they really took some small bites into the ensuing games.
For a young player like defenseman Adam McQuaid, going through the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time, the little things -- like reading and reacting to game situations and learning to pick his spots when it comes to introducing physicality into the game -- have been invaluable lessons learned.
Thats just old-fashioned coaching development with a young player who's improved nu leaps and bounds under Julien just as Brad Marchand, David Krejci, Milan Lucic and so many other talented youngster have before him.
The coaching staff has given me an opportunity and thats the biggest thing, said McQuaid. Ive made my mistakes along the way, but theyve always been willing to work with me to correct things while putting me out there for other opportunities. There have been times when Julien has stuck with guys and theyve come through for him in big moments. The biggest thing to me is that the coaching staff didnt panic down 0-2 and then have it trickle down to us.
There were times when things were close and we could have really gotten stressed out, and we were able to reel things in and get focused for the game. That was one of the messages from the coaching staff, and you could see that they really believed it because of the body language.
Julien knows players are always paying attention to the tonality of the message from the coaching staff, and their all-important body language. Theyd now if their coach was simply blowing smoke.
But theres no smoke with Julien or the Bruins. Both the coaches and the players are in the exact right head space as they enter an all-important Eastern Conference Finals for the first time in two decades starting this weekend.

Report: Five-star Kimball guard Keith Frazier narrows choices to Texas Tech, SMU
Texas Tech and SMU aren't exactly basketball powers right now, but those are exactly the two schools senior Kimball shooting guard and McDonald's All-American Keith Frazier will choose between Thursday.
RedRaiderSports.com, Texas Tech's Rivals.com affiliate website, caught up with Kimball's head basketball coach Snoop Johnson to get the latest on Frazier's recruiting process. It's complicated on the Red Raiders' front because interim-head coach Chris Walker has been instrumental in Frazier's recruitment and has not received word regarding whether he will be the head coach next season or not.
"He's going to make his decision on Thursday," Johnson told RedRaiderSports.com. "One of the things he wanted to do he's done. He narrowed it down between Texas A&M, Texas Tech and SMU and last week he narrowed it down to just Tech and SMU. His thing is he's trying to really watch the process on the Chris Walker hire.
"That has a lot to do with his process right now."
Johnson and Frazier's AAU coach Erven Davis III both have said Frazier had an official visit to Lubbock that exceeded all expectations.
Johnson added the No. 22 overall player according to Rivals.com has bought into Walker's vision for the Texas Tech program. On the other hand, Larry Brown has done quite a job on the SMU front.
"I can't sit there and say whether he is going or not because (Frazier) has never said it like that, but I do know he'd be uncomfortable with a person after you start to believe in that vision," Johnson told RedRaiderSports.com. "I'm not going to say no (Frazier wouldn't come to Tech without Walker), but I don't think it increases chances because you're talking about another individual coming in and trying to sell a vision in a short period of time. I don't believe they would have time."
Just one thing in the Frazier quest is certain as of Monday. Pulling the interim tag off Walker increases the Red Raiders' chances of landing the most high-profile recruit in recent school history.

Brown butter two days in a row? Oops.
I was not planning on posting this today, but then I thought "why the heck not?".
Two days of brown butter can never be a bad thing, especially when one is sweet and the other is savory. It is kind of perfect actually.
That and like I said yesterday, I have brown butter on the brain. Expect more because I promise it is coming.
I read somewhere in one of my millions of magazines I subscribe to that I let sit in a drawer for weeks upon weeks and then finally quickly flip through when I realize I am a month behind, that lobster is in season in September. To be honest, I really had no idea seafood had seasons. I mean, don't fish live all year round?
I mean, I know they do, but maybe it is easier to catch them in the warmer months? Yeah, I am sure that has to be it. Right?
Ugh. Who knows, I think I need to do some reading. I feel like I should know this stuff.
Anyway, my point is lobster is in season all September long and that means it is probably going to be on sale (it already is here) and that means it's time to eat some lobster!
Heck yes.
I can always be down with that.
Especially, when the lobster involves butter. Lobster and butter just go hand in hand. They work together to make each other better.
It's a beautiful thing.
I used lobster tails for this because one, they are on sale, and two?
Well, I am way too scared to actually go and buy a live lobster, kill it, de-shell it and eat it. Sure, I think I could do it, but I really do not want to. I like lobster tails and they are easy and quick and well – already dead. Plus, I live in Colorado, in a small mountain town and I am pretty sure I would have to go to Denver to find a live one and even then I still think it might be hard.
So yeah, I am sticking with the tails. They never fail me.
The best part is that this dish is really simple.
It's not like these Brown Butter Lobster Ravioli I made back in February that require a little more time. Although, that time is worth it. Those ravioli are still my all time favorite lobster dish, better than any restaurant. They are amazing and if you have the time and want to make some of the best homemade ravioli than you need to go and make those. Really you do.
But if you are looking for a quicker fix then this is your dish, it's still totally amazing.
The crispy kale, the bacon, the fontina! It's all so good and then topping if off with some fresh basil and a generous drizzle of brown butter?
Yeah, it's pure awesomeness.
Brown Butter Lobster, Bacon + Crispy Kale and Fontina Pasta
- 4 slices thick cut bacon
- 4 ounce lobster tails 4-8
- 6 tablespoon butter divided
- 2 cloves garlic minced or grated
- 1 leaves bunch kale torn away from the stem
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 pound angel pasta
- 1/2 lemon juiced
- 1 pint grape tomatoes halved
- 6-7 ounces fontina cheese cubed
- 1/4 cup fresh basil or parsley or both chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, add kale, olive oil, parmesan cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss to coat with your hands and massage kale for about 1 minute. Spread on a baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, tossing 1-2 times while cooking, until crispy. Remove and set aside.
Bring pasta water to a boil and prepare pasta according to directions.
While the kale is cooking and the water comes to a boil start working on the bacon. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until the fat has rendered and the bacon is crispy, about 7 minutes. Remove bacon from pan and set aside on paper towels to drain. Once cooled, crumble. Drain all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat.
To prepare the lobster, lay the lobster tails flat on a cutting board with the shell side facing upward. Using a very sharp, large knife, cut the tail in half lengthwise and slice all the way through the shell. Season the meat side lightly with salt and pepper.
Bring the skillet used for bacon back to medium-high heat. Once it's hot, add 1 tablespoon butter and swirl to coat. Place the lobster tails meat-side down in the pan and sear for 5 minutes or until the shells turn bright red. Remove tails from the pan and set aside.
To the same skillet add another tablespoon of butter. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, add the pasta, crushed red pepper, cayenne and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well and cook for 2 minutes, just until the pasta is hot. Once the pasta is hot add the tomatoes and cubed fontina cheese. Then remove the pasta from the heat, drizzle with lemon juice and toss well. Add in the crispy kale.
In a separate small skillet melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat until just browned. Butter will melt, foam and froth, then begin to brown along the bottom. Whisk browned bits off of the bottom of the pan.
Pop the lobster meat out of the shells and divide the pasta among plates or bowls. Top each plate with lobster meat and a sprinkle of chopped basil. Drizzle with browned butter and top with the crumbled bacon.
Oh and the crispy kale? Yeah, expect a lot more of that too. It too is awesome.

History of St. Clair County, MO, 1883, pp. 835, 1029:
Monegaw Springs, Chalk Level Township
Monegaw Springs - These famous springs take their name from the equally famous Indian chief, "Monegaw," who was for many years the moving spirit of the Osage tribe of Indians, as well as their chief ... Lindsay and Charles Applegate were the first to settle at or by these springs, and they put up a cabin there in 1833 or early 1834. They had put up also a little water mill, the first in the county, but small. In 1835 James Anderson bought the Applegates claim and lived there for several years. The Andersons came from Virginia.

This may be the cutest piggyback ride we've ever laid eyes on! Two-month-old Estela the spider monkey has been taking comfort in her stuffed pals (she has a team!) since she was rejected by her mother at birth on Jan. 17.
Keepers at the Melbourne Zoo have been tending to the teeny monkey around-the-clock, even sleeping next to her for night feedings, according to the Daily Mail.
"Keeping Estela alive has been a big challenge," said Jess McKelson, a primate supervisor at the zoo. "She has had ups and downs over this time, with several infections that have been a real threat to her survival."
All of that special attention from the zookeepers and her stuffed animal friends seems to be working: Estela has gained a pound since she came under their care.

This American Life, the popular public radio show hosted by Ira Glass, devoted its entire hour this past weekend to the cracking the Coca-Cola formula, perhaps the most famous trade secret in the world. Long rumored to contain cocaine, Ira Glass and company have posted the recipe online – or least, what they think the recipe is.
Time described how TAL found their recipe in an 1879 photo from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, showing the notes from a friend of John Pemberton, the inventor of Coca-Cola. The Christian Science Monitor reports, though, that the Coca-Cola denies that TAL has the real recipe, and that it remains a secret. The CSM article elaborates why Coca-Cola has few other options than repudiating any exposed recipe; in order to sue, the company would have to disclose the actual recipe in court, thus dissipating trade secret protection.
Unlike patents, copyrights, and trademarks, trade secrets aren't covered by an overarching federal statute. Thus, among IP protections trade secrets are the weakest – as soon as Pandora's Box is opened and the secret is revealed, it can no longer be deemed a secret and the protection is lost. However, unlike other types of IP protections, trade secrets can last forever – there is no time limit.
One might wonder: If something successfully remains a secret, why do we have worry about granting IP protection at all? The answer lies in employment contracts: specifically non-compete and non-disclosure agreements. While there generally are presumptions against unconscionable non-compete and non-disclosure clauses, the importance of trade secrecy protection may override an unconscionability defense. Thus Coca-Cola could, in an employment contract, inform its staff that they could never disclose the formula, and the draconian nature of such clauses would be justified on the basis of protecting the trade secret.
By claiming that this isn't the formula, Coca-Cola inoculates itself against anyone challenging the continued existence of trade secrecy protection. Given the subjectivity of taste tests and the complexity of the formula (something no one disputes), it seems likely that the mystery of the most popular soft drink of the world will remain in dispute despite this latest "exposure."

IT has been one of the longest-running debates in Scottish art circles – was the celebrated work, The Skating Minister, painted by Sir Henry Raeburn or by an obscure French artist?
Now Dr Stephen Lloyd, an art historian who has long insisted the painting was in fact done by an emigre artist, Henri-Pierre Danloux, has claimed X-ray evidence suggests it was not the work of Raeburn.
Dr Lloyd says the X-rays disclosed the painting lacks the lead-white paint Raeburn customarily used for his faces.
Loading article content
For good measure, his opinion is backed by Pierre Rosenburg, a former director of the Louvre and a prominent authority on French painting.
In a new book on Raeburn, which he has co-edited, Dr Lloyd says: "The X-rays show the lead-white paint which Raeburn commonly used to 'underpaint' his works shows up in the ice, landscape and sky of the painting but nowhere in the face."
He says X-rays of other works by the artist showing the use of lead-white paint add to a "compelling demonstration that this painting cannot be from the hand of Raeburn".
As long ago as March 2005, Dr Lloyd, then a senior curator at Edinburgh's Scottish National Portrait Gallery, told The Herald of his conviction that the Skating Minister – which dates from around 1795 and is said to depict Rev Robert Walker, minister of the Canongate Kirk and a member of the Edinburgh Skating Society, on Duddingston loch – was by Danloux.
Danloux was born in Paris in 1753 and emigrated to Britain in 1792 to escape the French Revolution.
The new disclosure is made in a book, Henry Raeburn: Context, Reception and Reputation, which Dr Lloyd has co-edited with Viccy Coltman, who heads Edinburgh University's history of art department. However, Duncan Thomson, former keeper of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, reportedly said that Raeburn may simply have changed his technique at the time.
Sir John Leighton, director general of the National Galleries of Scotland, said: "There has been speculation for some time and no concrete evidence has yet been found to seriously undermine the traditional attribution to Raeburn."

UBC study suggests Tylenol eases fear, anxiety and dread
These days, it seems like there is a pill for everything.
Now, researchers have found there may even be an over-the-counter drug you can take to ease existential angst.
Researchers at the University of B.C. discovered that an unexpected side-effect of the widely-used painkiller Tylenol is that it can ease fear, anxiety and feelings of dread.
Their findings were reported in a study titled The Common Pain of Surrealism and Death, published in Psychological Science, the journal of the Association for Psychological Science.
"Pain exists in many forms, including the distress that people feel when exposed to thoughts of existential uncertainty and death," said lead author Daniel Randles, a doctoral student at the UBC department of psychology. "Our study suggests these anxieties may be processed as 'pain' by the brain – but Tylenol seems to inhibit the signal telling the brain that something is wrong."
To test their hypothesis, researchers had participants take acetaminophen or a placebo, then watch a surrealist movie (David Lynch's Rabbits) or write about death and then consider crimes ranging from rioting to prostitution.
Compared to the control group, those who took Tylenol were better able to handle troubling concepts, measured by how severely they assigned fines to crimes they were asked to evaluate after exposure to disturbing material.
Over the course of two studies, about 350 subjects were given either placebos or two extra-strength Tylenols. The researchers saw a "consistent and robust" trend: Those who had taken painkillers were less disturbed by considering death or watching unsettling films.
"That a drug used primarily to alleviate headaches may also numb people to the worry of thoughts of their deaths, or to the uneasiness of watching a surrealist film – is a surprising and very interesting finding," said Randles, who authored the study with Prof. Steve Heine and former undergraduate researcher Nathan Santos.
Randles said he believes the drug targeted an area of the brain that deals with uncertainty and anxiety, the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex.
He stressed the research was not designed as a clinical study to determine whether Tylenol should be an accepted treatment for anxiety.

I hope too
back to the excellent tvdb xml fetcher
I don't want to make folder for each episode
Hmmm yes it looks like the Hub has issues when you have multiple files in one folder....
I don't use this method for movies BUT for tv series i totally understand why this is better...As if you have a complete series you can easily generate the cover tickle sheets for the entire season
I have not tested multiple sheets myself so i will do so and see what can be done.....
Quick question do you have the backdrops enabled or disabled ?
i modify the xml to not have backdrop loading. Only the jpg
with a sad result...
default background too
I hope WD will manage folder xml in the future

The problem is when you have multiple sheets in one folder.. it lags!
normal sized thumbnails work well.
i'm quite dissapointed...
we must report this problem to the firmware subject
if a good english writer is motivated
I Will try to update the tutorial by latest this weekend with the new thumbgen!
Anyway for those who like the transparent moviesheets, with backdrops appearing/rotating/dissapearing..
generate the xml file via the hub or use theRoggy's tool..
or you can generate the xml with thumbgen but then you have to manually edit the file and add tags...
And Do as said in the tutorial in the first post. (Don't forget about the renaming of the .png file)
For those who want only a static background, generate the moviesheet as a .jpg file with a fanart/backdrop from thumbgen itself!

i've created a thread in the firmware section. I hope wd finds a solution.
@ firetix and extremedigital and the other cracks..
The availible tutorial, how to use thumbgen to customize wdtv live hub might be a little outdated with the new version 1.2.4 of thumbgen. Might it be possible to get a updated tutorial on youtube or via pdf.
Think a lot has changed due to the hub support of thumbgen right now.
Thanx for your efforts in advance...
ok, i will upload an updated version by latest this weekend!
I would wait on making a new tutorial, I was going to but I believe TG is going to have a newer, more compatible version out fairly soon. In which will generate the year correctly and generate the backgrounds.
So to keep from have to do double the work, you might want to wait for the next release.
Yeah good suggestion I will wait
-> you just don't need to manually create the dummy files.
with the latest version, in options-->input/output naming
in Movieinfo export just select .xml and Export using WDTV Live Hub format(but note: backdrops links are not generated) so you may want to generate non transparent movie sheets..
in Main Moviesheet select .jpg (.png for transparent one.. but then after generating the movie sheet rename to a .jpg file)
for xml files with backdrops.. you can add the backdrops manually e.g. http://link.com/image.jpg
or simply use the roggy's Excellent tool
generate dummy file at MUST BE CHECKED
Remember to keep your file name simple.. as i've noticed that if you have something like that..
The sheet will display.
But if you have something like this
movie 2010.brrip.x264.mkv
movie 2010.brrip.x264.mkv_sheet.mkv
movie 2010.brrip.x264.mkv_sheet.jpg
The sheet may not display.. and if so just add an xml file for the sheet...
eg. movie 2010.brrip.x264.mkv_sheet.xml
Now just do you usual steps for the generations of covers/thumbnails/moviesheets...
Got a question for you guys.
I would like to use similar theme [the below theme is DVD2, I like DVD3 better] to the one in Image1:
Using the blank space at the bottom to have the same as the bottom part of Image2:
Now I want all the images across the bottom to be like the green box in image2 [How to train a dragon] and not like the yellow box [inception].
Now I do not use the dummy file and I am using TG 1.2.4.
I would love this to happen with each movie being in their folder but this would be a firmware issue as I am understanding. So I have moved a select movies outside their respective folders into 1 folder for testing this feature.
There are a bunch of these type of themes that have that extra space at the bottom that could also take advantage of this feature.
Anyone able to help me on this idea? Thnks
You need to post the pics somewhere else like Flickr or other site. They want show up here for others to see until they are approved by a moderator, which could be some time.
I started to set to flikr and looks like they are approved now anyways so I dont need to but I will remember that for the future.
I would have just used the original links from the original posters but I wanted to draw the boxes to point out my description.
To make the thumbnails look the same you have to modify "rv_gallery_browse_page.xml".
Look for the first line that says "image name="th0_f" and modifiy "th0_f" through "th6_f", make sure you modify the line above that too which shows the width, height and y settings.
You should be able to use the same settings as the lines above that start "image name="th0", these are the non-focused icons.
Then look for the line towards the bottom that says: "@frame_0" x="72" />" this is the focus frame, all 7 lines "frame_0 thru frame_6" will need to modified.
Also, if you want a little cleaner look, and get rid of the colored icons (dashboard, filter/sort, etc., you don't really need them anyway since there are shortcut buttons on the remote), you can delete the line "" which as at the top.
Then at the bottom you'll see the line "", change it to "".
Then find the xml: "rv_browse_common_widgets_new.xml", copy it then paste it and change the copy name to "rv_browse_common_widgets_new_gallery.xml", then open it and delete the following lines:
@bg-RULE" text="" active="@@act-RULE" disable="@@disable-RULE" /> @bg-SOURCE" text="" active="@@act-SOURCE" disable="@@disable-SOURCE" /> @bg-DISPLAY" text="" active="@@act-DISPLAY" disable="@@disable-DISPLAY" /> @bg-DASHBOARD" text="" active="@@act-DASHBOARD" disable="@@disable-DASHBOARD" />
This will get rid of the colored icons, but this is just if you want a cleaner look.
I think I may have misunderstood what you meant. I thought at first you meant the size, but if what you meant is the image (ie: having the Coverart show up as the focused image) then that's not possible.
Because of the way it uses the Moviesheets, the focused thumbnail and the moviesheet are the same and you can't have 2 separate images for them.
As for making the first image that you have show the thumbnails, you'll have to use a different Moviesheet (one with a transparent area) or make one to look like you want it. Try Thumbgen Desiger to make your own.
Hi There,
So Was following Firetix's tutorial but i can't find the xml for the movie....
how do i get the xml for each movie so i can get these movie sheets to work ?
I have 17 Again.mp4 (this is my movie)
I have folder.jpg (this is the thumbnail of the movie cover)
I am just not sure what to do is there a step by step process like generating xml ?
PLEASE HELP THIS NOOB you guys have done awesome work on the custom themes i just wish i could get them going
I love what you've done but I'm having trouble getting the movie sheet I created using Thumbgen, to work and I hope this is the right forum to ask questions.
I downloaded a file containing some samples cinsisti8ng of a folder for the following three that I believe are your samples.
Alpha and Omega
Cairo Time
Assuming that's correct that these are yours then if I have the Anondized 1.2.2v2 installed and am using Library mode and I have the Alpha And Omega sample copied to my Videos folder on my Media Hub then when I browse to the Alpha And Omega folder I should see the Moviesheet sample displayed across the entire screen, yes?
I believe when you are having trouble getting something to work then the best way to find out what is different from what you've done that does not work and a working one is to compare the 2 and find where the difference lies and I'm hoping the Alpha And Omega sample can do that.
I thought that if the Anodized Theme were in use then so long as the file names were as needed, like in the samples, then there was nothing else one needed like editing one or more parts of the xml file, is that correct?
If I can get this working I'd be happy to put together a semi-professional looking How-To Guide with screenshots and all. Creating training material and class demos is part of my job. To do op something like that though I first have to know it inside and out so that I can properly convey the info in print. I've been a fan of the WD TV Live device and file based movie watching for a few years now and love spreading the joy of the WD devices. I had misgivings early on with the Hub due to its inflexibility with USB drives compared to prior WDTV Live devices but I've moved past that and am ready to spread the gospel of the Hub.
Yes you should normally see the moviesheet, although it is extremedigital's samples!
I'm assuming your are using the latest thumbgen , have generate dummy file at checked, and main moviesheet format set as .jpg or .png in input/output name
Next .
My folder structure is set as this eg.
/Buried -->Foldername
/Buried/Buried.mkv --> video file
/Buried/Buried.jpg -- >coverbox
/Buried/Buried.xml -- >metadata
/Buried/Buried.mkv_sheet.mkv --dummyfile
/Buried/Buried.mkv_sheet.jpg --moviesheet
/Buried/Buried.mkv_sheet.xml --meta data (not needed if you're using .jpg moviesheets/non-see through moviesheets)
For the moviesheet to display the .xml file is needed and media library must be turned on!
you can test with this folder structure http://www.mediafire.com/?kzkfpultigf6lkq

Children's charity in Coventry given nearly £200,000
A Coventry charity which helps educate and feed vulnerable children overseas has been awarded almost £200,000 to help with its projects.
Global Care will receive two grants totalling £192,620 from the Jersey Overseas Aid Commission (JOAC).
It will mean five pre-schools in Ethiopia can be given permanent buildings and a classroom block in Kibera, Kenya, can be rebuilt.
The charity said the cash would "vastly improve facilities for children".

Introduced in 2009, Vinum XL is positioned as the new generation of RIEDEL wine glasses. It was developed for big, bold and concentrated wines.
These large, luxurious and lofty glasses are grape variety specific and were executed in lead crystal, machine blown in Bavaria, Germany.
Share with us your comments about Reidel:
"It takes a great deal of efforts for a talented wine-maker to produce a good wine. These efforts can be ruined in no time if the wine is not served properly. The quality of the glass plays a crucial role here and Riedel produces the largest range of high quality glasses, specifically fine-tuned to fit the predominant wine varietals of the planet. Riedel makes it possible to fully appreciate all the nuances of aromas and tastes from the best wines of the world." -Michel Bettane
Varietal Specific Designs
The Riedel glass designs are based on the exceptional characteristics of each grape variety, which in turn determines the shape, size and rim diameter of the bowl. The latest machine blown technology, in conjunction with the seamless pulled stem, offers a special design feature "architecture", which creates an indent in the bottom of the bowl, reflecting the light and adding another dimension to the lively color of wine.
Crystal Classics is one of the largest independent retailers of Riedel glasses in the U.S.
