Brenda Guo Accelerates IT to Raise the Bar
By Joanna Corman
Brenda Guo prepared to enter the Chinese foreign ministry, but serendipity led her to a 12-year career in information technology and most recently to the Bay Area Working Professional MBA Program, where she is a second-year student.
Guo, a native of China, has built her career at a diverse collection of U.S. companies, and a stint co-founding a company in China.
She earned her undergraduate degree from the China Foreign Affairs University. While most of her classmates entered the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Guo moved to New York state with her husband, who was enrolled in a Ph.D. program at Cornell University, to pursue a master's degree in corporate communications at Ithaca College.
She had aspired to work in the communications field after graduating in 1998, but instead joined Burntsand Inc. in San Jose during the Internet bubble. As an information technology consultant, she designed and built web-based databases, completing projects for Fortune 500 companies such as Wells Fargo, AT&T and Boeing.
That experience sparked her interest in harnessing the transformative power of technology rather than doing corporate communications. The more she learned how to program computers, the more she enjoyed it. She also found she has effective problem-solving skills, essential for a successful IT career.
Since 2006, Guo has thrived as an IT programmer analyst for the Continuing Education of the Bar (CEB), a program of the University of California that is cosponsored by the State Bar of California to cultivate the professional development of lawyers. She is a system administrator overseeing three databases, two of which she designed. Guo is responsible for the systems' health, helping users when they encounter daily problems and introducing new systems. She and her team have earned CEB recognition awards for their work.
Guo likes the fast-paced nature of IT, researching changing technology and proposing new products to senior management. "You feel like you're adding a lot of value to a business, and it's a very challenging job," she says. "Also, once your system is up and running, you feel a lot of power because you have to help a lot of people to do their daily work."
Recently, Guo convinced her managers to change the vendor of their web catalog, which advertises products for attorneys. The old catalog had a "straight, plain PDF layout without URL links." The new one, in its final testing phase, is like a virtual magazine with pages that flip and inserted links that let customers buy products with a mouse click.
Before joining the CEB, Guo worked in for Bio-Rad Laboratories in Irvine as an IT business system analyst and as an independent consultant to American Honda Motor Company Inc. in Torrance, Calif.
In 2005, she and her husband returned to China and launched a start-up with friends called Yiyouxing Technology Inc., an online training company, which they sold.
As a UC Davis MBA student, Guo is an active member of the Bay Area Marketing Association and has set her sights on becoming a general manager leading an international team at a high-tech company. Courses in marketing and finance, she says, will help her better interact with customers and allow her to pursue a product management career path.
Guo's preparation for a high-tech career started in junior high and high school, when she attended a highly competitive, elite school in Tianjin, China, near Beijing. "It gave me confidence I could be successful among a group of very competitive people."

The world of printer technology has begun to produce some truly useful and interesting innovations during the last few years. Rather than sticking with the standard 2d format and all the conventions that come with it, many print companies have started making devices capable of truly unique and often amazing 3D results utilizing various materials to create the end result with layers of medium. Take a look at some of the most interesting 3D printers available today.
1. Printers that Print Glass: Through vitraglyphic processing, engineers and artists at the University of Washington were able to create glass objects using a 3D printer. Typically a 3D object is made by these printers using a fine powder and small drops of binding agent to build the structure of the object, layer by layer. In the case of the glass printer, this process needed to be modified. Previously the glass powder and binding agent didn't work well together and no structure would hold the glass powder together; however, after some alterations were made in the amount of binding agent and a heating process, glass objects could finally be created.
2. Printers that Make Highly Articulated Robot Figures: Utilizing a printer made by Safeway to construct objects out of stainless steel, one Algerian artist has created highly articulated robot figures. The art world has found 3D printing a wonderfully exacting and useful resource for both, constructing specific designs and also easily replicating them for sale; Mani Zamani's robots are just one example of the pieces that have come from the innovation. Just as with the original 3D printers, these objects are made out of steel powder adhered with binding agent and then infused with bronze. The innovation means that with time and work, the machines we use everyday could literally recreate themselves.
3. Printers that Print Themselves: It's not completed yet, but a new printer called the RepRap is in the process of being developed and is said to already be able to print parts of itself, effectively making a machine that can replicate itself. The implications are of course quite intriguing and according to the makers, it is likely to do a great deal to help the economy and the environment by reducing the amount of impact on the world.
4. Printers for Printing Buildings: Really? Yes it's true they've begun to make 3D printers large enough and effective enough to turn sand and binding material into large stone blocks for construction! Working very much like the original 3D printers which could print models, these devices offer an effective and very green method of building the real thing out of the sand available on sight and binding material. The innovation has plenty of implications for current use and could prove useful for the future when we finally succeed in our endeavor to settle on a foreign moon or an alien world.
5. The Organ Printer: This device could prove to be one of the most valuable and important inventions created in recent years if it works as intended. What does it do? This device prints human organs and tissue utilizing your own DNA. This means repairing damage that was irreversible such as major scarring and severed limbs and evading the issue of organ rejection because the material is derived entirely from your own. Designed utilizing the inkjet printer, it builds these materials layer by layer as do most other 3D printers; only this is constructed in a petri dish. The dish contains liquid and the printer cartridge uses cells and a crosslinker to build the material bit by bit. For time being, it's only getting started but the outlook is very good.

Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Georgia
Late Rent Payment
Can a landlord refuse rent payment if it is one day late without late fee? Want to pay late fee in installments of $20/week for 5 weeks. Do not have an xtra $100. Landlord said they will not take the rent without the $100 and will start eviction process in about a week.
Asked on 2/13/06, 1:27 pm
1 Answer from Attorneys
Scott Riddle Law Office of Scott B. Riddle, LLC
Re: Late Rent Payment
Since we do not have your lease, a specific response is not possible. However, in general, a landlord can deem you in default if you miss the deadline specified in the lease. They may allow you to cure the default, but you apparently are unable to do so. You appear to want to change the terms of the lease and require them to not deem you in default, or accept your payment plan. They are under no obligation to agree to your new terms.

Stillwater bridge supporters form coalition, urge Congress to support project
Supporters of a new St. Croix River Crossing today launched a broad-based, community-supported coalition to advocate for the construction of a new four-lane bridge.
The proposed St. Croix River Crossing would replace the 80-year-old Stillwater Lift Bridge, which Stillwater, Minn. Mayor Ken Harycki calls a fracture-critical structure. Harycki is co-chairman of the new coalition.
The group gathered today in Lowell Park in Stillwater to discuss the coalitions motives.
"We're here for one reason," Harycki said. "To replace the bridge."
Efforts to replace the current bridge in Stillwater have been going on for years, said John Soderberg, president of First National Community Bank in New Richmond and co-chairman of the coalition.
The bridge is presently in limbo because a federal judge said the National Park Service could not support a new span because the bridge would harm the scenic beauty of the region. As a result, it will take action by Congress to allow for the construction of the bridge across the St. Croix River.
"We're lucky to have a natural resource in our area," Soderberg said. "This plan has many preservation elements."
Those elements include preserving and restoring the current lift bridge and converting it into pedestrian and bike loop trail; building a cable-stayed, four-lane bridge between the wastewater treatment plant and a power plant, which will help to relieve traffic congestion in downtown Stillwater, while not disrupting the scenic views of the St. Croix River Valley; and locating the new bridge just north of Xcel Energy's Allen S. King Power Plant, which the group says will have fewer environmental impacts on the river than other plans to locate the bridge in downtown Stillwater's historic district.
"This project is our community's project," Soderberg said. "Help us join together to get something done."

I created this website less than a week ago... After I had built most of this site, I was contacted by a US military/intelligence artificial intelligence (AI) via electronic telepathy asking me what I would accept to not do this website(DirectedEnergyWeapons.net). Once I said nothing, it threatened me.
It's threats went along the lines of "We will mind control you to taint this website" or "you will be sacrificed profoundly for this website", things of that nature. The people with these extremely potent directed energy weapons have no regard for human rights, free will, or the sanctity of anyone's own mind. Their threats and tortures only flared me up, and gave me more motivation to expose them...
I hope I can make this website first class in all areas. That is one of my goals with this website...

DirectedEnergyWeapons.net is Born
Directed Energy Weapons connected to artificial intelligence have affected me in major ways the last 8 years of my life. My life changed dramatically when I was approached by shadow government sources and inducted into a secret society of sorts. I rejected their instructions and it lead to severe targeting via directed energy weapons...
On this new website I plan to expose what directed energy weapons can do and what they are doing in the 20th and 21st Century. I know quite a lot about them and plan to keep this website up as long as possible.
I could see this website becoming one of my favorite websites, with my other technology website;

More than seven hundred school children of Lomary Catholic Primary and Lomary Secondary School will now have their beachfront protected through Government's investment of a $100,000 seawall.
Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama issued a directive for the construction works for the seawall to begin immediately.
This follows a visit by the head of Government to the Lomary Catholic schools earlier this week.
Divisional Commissioner Central, Laisenia Tuitubou said PM Bainimarama in his visit emphasised the immediate construction of the Lomary seawall.
"The Lomary seawall project is a result of one of the outcomes from the tikina meeting which was presented to the development board in 2012," Mr Tuitubou said.
"We have signed a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Works who will construct the project at a cost of $100,000."
Mr Tuitubou said the seawall project would benefit surrounding communities and villages in Lomary in the protection of their coastline.

John Allen's earth science class at St. Pauls High School watched intently as a well-drilling rig bored deeper into the earth.
A driller on Tommy Ammons crew begins the dig
Several students were brave enough to get a hands-on feel for some mucky sand and clay as a test well was drilled in a remote corner of the school's campus.
"There are a world of things you can do with the well and data from it," Dr. Lee Phillips, a UNC Pembroke geologist, told Allen. "I will get you a kit so you can test the water."
Dr. Phillips and two colleagues, geologist Dr. Martin Farley and science education professor Rachel McBroom, have been working with 14 high school earth science teachers at six Robeson County high schools in a National Science Foundation-sponsored program called "Life of the Aquifer." The goal is to raise the level of earth science instruction.
With the completion of the 12-foot well in St. Pauls, they are half finished drilling six test wells at the schools, Dr. Phillips said.
"We are giving them a simple resource that allows teachers to demonstrate the relevance of earth science in a place that – to the untrained eye – appears devoid of geology," he said. "As a geoscientist, the wells will give me a good idea what's going on down there."
The wells will be checked for water levels which can be compared to other climatology data and tracked across the county.
"With the recent drought, ground water levels take on new relevance," Dr. Phillips said. "Ultimately, I would like to build a shared database network, so the teachers and students can see what's going on at our other test sites."
Thomas Ammons' company Environmental Hydrogeological Consultants (EHC) of Red Springs, N.C., is drilling the wells. The St. Pauls well took a little more than an hour for his experienced crew.
Dr. Lee Phillips talks with John Allen's (right) class at St. Pauls High School
"Let's do Fairmont High School next week," Ammons said. "We do many types of environmental work, underground tanks, emergency environmental response, soil and ground water sampling and drilling test wells like this one."
Ammons contributed labor to the project in exchange for continuing education credits for state licensure.
"Having a company like EHC so close to the University has been a real resource for this project," Dr. Phillips said.
UNCP was awarded a two-year, $98,023 NSF grant for the program which finishes up this spring. Earth science teachers spent two weeks in workshops and received computers loaded with tutorials for their students.
Test wells, water testing kits, rock samples and maps of underground water are supplied to the classrooms.
Dr. Martin Farley, chair of UNCP's Geography and Geology Department, applied for the grant. He says geological awareness is low in the Coastal Plains with good reason.
"You can't see rocks in the Coastal Plains, but they are here, and they are important to people's lives," he said. "Every time you turn on the faucet, you should think about geology."
It's the solid geology that makes the liquid benefits possible, he said. A large portion of local drinking water comes from deep wells.
"An aquifer is rock below the surface that has water in it," Dr. Farley said. "Some of it is close to the surface, and some is in deep aquifers."

On-Line Churches Can't Replace Real Thing
I read with interest the article ''Churches Extend Outreach to World Wide Web,'' Oct. 24. When cities were obliterated by war, returning soldiers went to their churches to find physical and spiritual help in their time of need. If church buildings disappear because of lack of care, where will people go for help? Will the Internet be operative during a man-made or natural disaster? Will it supply needed food and shelter at such a time?
I agree with the last paragraph, which states: ''Church is the community celebrating together.'' We need to support local churches and not become isolated by the electronic media.

Clinton's message about family
In the opinion-page article ''Clinton: We Will Win the Day,'' Oct. 20, I appreciated the things that President Clinton had to say about family. The absence of fathers in the home may really be the ''single biggest problem in our society.'' However, I think the absence of mothers in the home is also something to be concerned about. I hope people will continue to recognize the importance of family in our society. Through this realization, the world will become a better place to live.

Turkey's human rights abuses
If the European Parliament accepts Turkey's gesture of political liberalization (''Turkey Whips Up a Batch of Reforms Before EU Vote,'' Oct. 30), it will be a victory of public relations and money over public policy and morals.
Ankara's emendation of the ''notorious eighth article of the Antiterrorism Law'' and the release of 2 out of 6 Kurdish parliamentarians is a pathetic attempt to cleanse the wounds of continuing human rights abuses. The six Kurdish legislators whose fates were settled in a five-minute show trial on Oct. 26 were guilty of nothing other than verbally expressing their outrage at a political system that sanctions hatred, abuse, and murder.
Reacting to the courts decision to uphold her 15-year sentence, Leyla Zana (a well-known politician and human rights activist) displayed the calm realism only acquired through long years of oppression: ''I am still alive ... if the Turkish generals think that by having judges who are at their service sentence us, they can scare us and reduce us to silence, they are wrong.''
Where Turkish brutality has failed, American and European political and economic interests may succeed. A ''yes'' vote on Turkey's admittance validates Turkish policy, mocks the Kurds' struggle for empowerment, and may reinforce the belief that, in Turkey, political struggles must be fought with more than words.

Farmers work hard for low pay
It greatly disappoints me to read editorials such as ''Farm Reform, at Last?'' Oct. 17. The writer makes it sound as if farmers have committed a crime.
It is because of United States farm programs that consumers have this great abundance of goods available, since farm prices, though higher today than they once were, still do not provide adequate income for farmers to continue to produce, much less provide conservation measures for land.
And in spite of government farm payments being cut substantially in recent years, there are congressmen such as House Agriculture chairman Pat Roberts who would cut farm payments even more with his ''Freedom to Farm'' bill. Since wheat and corn loan rates would be drastically reduced and production (planting) controls eliminated, the so-called ''Freedom to Farm'' bill should be described as ''Freedom for Farm Prices to Fluctuate the Max'' act.

Your No-fail Guide To Finding A Great Ac Service Contractor Your No-fail Guide To Finding A Great Ac Service Contractor May 7
, 2013 | Author: Jill Tsai | Posted in Business
Are you worried that finding a skilled air and heating contractor for your project is as likely as winning the lottery? Put the odds in your favor. Follow these propositions and you will come out the big winner.
Ask around to friends, families, and neighbors who have ever worked with an air and heating contractor in your area. Since it is personal, they will be more likely to recommend a contractor who will work better for you than for some stranger. Look for references and feedback of the air conditioning repair contractors discussed.
Its an air and heating contractors job to sell you on why theyre right for your project. Youre giving them your business and they should treat you like a valued customer. Any contractor who doesnt show interest in receiving your business probably wont invest in you project.
No one can predict the future and none of us has a crystal ball to see what lies ahead, so when unexpected delays occur dont be surprised. A good air and heating contractor knows how to deal with any problems that may arise in a timely and cost efficient manner.
You should never rush the hiring process, if you dont feel like an air and heating contractor is a good fit for you then you shouldnt hire them. Wait till the perfect one comes along
, do your research and get all the possible information about the perople youre looking at. This will help you find the perfect contractor for the job.
If youve got a large project you need taken care of, youll need an air and heating contractor who has managed a big worksite before. Try to go for one thats had a large team and that has taken on bigger projects than yours. Often, contractors have a good relationships with their past customers and HVAC systems engineers, so they can take care of hiring one for you.
You should feel comfortable talking with your air and heating contractor. This means the small differences in aesthetics, too. These should be open and agreed upon to avoid complications arising later. Sometimes, you should ask about the importance of a detail because it might be miniscule.
Scheduling conflicts always seem to happen when you are working with an air and heating contractor
, so try to leave a day or two empty to make up for any delays you might encounter. Nobody can predict the weather or the conditions perfectly, and extreme weather makes the worksite hazardous. Although if they refuse to work in a bit of rain, the work will never get done.
Failure to attain the necessary permits will result in a large fine, it is best to make a few calls and verify everything is in order before each stage of the project. Before work begins on a phase, ask to see the permits to check for validity.
Whenever you are interested in the topic of ac repair contractor, go ahead and visit Yahoo and look for heating tacoma wa. Youll be satisfied to know you did!

Hello everyone…
I'm a new member of this forum ( I used to read all the time as Guest ).
I search everywhere on the forum a post like mine, but I didn't find it…
I'm sure the question has been answered a bunch of time, I'm surely not using right keyword (English is not my born language, so I might be wrong on the keyword)
I'm trying to get the full spectrum using the getSepctrum fonction of a song… but I only succeded when i'm playing the sound… I Haven't when the song is not playing…
After reading some post, I started some stuff…
first :
result = system->setOutput(FMOD_OUTPUTTYPE_NOSOUND_NRT);
result = system->init(32, FMOD_INIT_NORMAL, NULL);
bool IsPlaying = false;
while (IsPlaying){
result = channel->getSpectrum(spectrum, SPECTRUMSIZE, 0, FMOD_DSP_FFT_WINDOW_TRIANGLE);
And I get the error :
"FMOD error! (36) An invalid object handle was used."
I can tell it is from the line :
result = channel->getSpectrum(spectrum, SPECTRUMSIZE, 0, FMOD_DSP_FFT_WINDOW_TRIANGLE);
Anyone can help ? thank you…
- TheSquad asked 10 years ago
The thing is, if I use
Channel->getSpectrum(float * spectrumarray, int numvalues, int channeloffset, FMOD_DSP_FFT_WINDOW windowtype);
I need a Channel wich is created, with the data I did read with readData.
I haven't seen the possiblity to do that… Have I missed something ?
Anyone can give us (I say Us because, i'm sure, i'm not the only one) some source sode about getting the whole spectrum of a sound…
Is FMOD the best option for doing that ?
I can only say I'm interested about this as well. Though I must say I haven't given it a try. I'm sure FMOD offers this functionality though, TheSquad. No worries. 😉
- Dysprosium answered 10 years ago
The only way you can do it is to use Channel::getSpectrum but you would have to process it using FMOD_OUTPUTTYPE_NOSOUND_NONRT.
- brett answered 10 years ago
Hello,I think I have the same situation with you:
English is not my born language,
and in I my program,
I want to get the full Spectrum without playing the sound.
In my initial test, the code may like these:
float *foo(unsigned int pos)
float *b=new float[64];
FMOD_Channel_SetMute(channel, true);
FMOD_Channel_SetPosition(channel, pos, FMOD_TIMEUNIT_MS);
FMOD_Channel_GetSpectrum(channel, b, 64, 0,
return b;
// in antoher function
float **b[64];
unsigned int i;
FMOD_Sound_GetLength(sound, &i,FMOD_TIMEUNIT_MS);
for (int j = 0, j<i, i++) {
b[j] = foo(j*1000); //every second
the code may have some problem,
because they are not the original one,
but the algorithm is effective!
Also, if you want to use this in a GUI app,
you should use multi-thread to avoid the GUI lose response .
(actually, in my test it worked very fast,
intel core T2450 2×2.0GHz, mp3:192kbps 4:13)
I hope this can help you… 😉
- frankpaine answered 10 years ago
UP : Big EDIT…
[quote:1yawekba]"FMOD error! (36) An invalid object handle was used." [/quote:1yawekba]
It looks like you're channel is gone. When a sound finishes playing the channel pointer is no longer valid. So if you add that condition to your while loop it should be fine.
while (IsPlaying && result != FMOD_ERR_INVALID_HANDLE)[/code:1yawekba]
and since you know what this error is you can add:
[code:1yawekba]if (result != FMOD_ERR_INVALID_HANDLE)
Hope this helps,
Thank you for this answer [b:2lr4h4a1]PeterStirling[/b:2lr4h4a1]
Altough I would have another question…
With readData, when you are putting the whole music on the buffer…
How can you get the spectrum of each millliseconds ?
That would be great if someone can give me the answer, because right now i'm kinda stuck, I haven't find anywhere this answer… is it possible ?
What king of the structure is the buffer, when it is filled ?
readData is for FMOD::Sound.
If you want the spectrum you might want to try using
Channel->getSpectrum(float * spectrumarray, int numvalues, int channeloffset, FMOD_DSP_FFT_WINDOW windowtype);
if you want the spectrum of a single milisecond of data (assuming the sample rate is 44kHz) you would make numvalues = 44. This may not be enough data to get accurate spectrum.

text: Perhaps this question is beyond the scope of the forum, but I'm seeking a daily commuter bag. I have the Chinao case and a STM Jacket for my Ipad. Now I need to tote the ipad and case back and forth to work (school - I'm a teacher). Currently I'm using an Eagle Creek duffle bag for my daily transport. While it's big enough and carries all of my stuff (including gym and cycling gear), I really need a bag for the following items: Ipad with case Lunch (often microwavable leftovers) Large 40 oz. stainless bottle for morning smoothie Water bottle Snacks Notebooks A few files Apple wireless keyboard A couple of books Misc. small items - glasses, pens, earphones, cell phone, other. I'm considering the Waterfield Cargo bag (probably medium), but I'm open to suggestions. I want something nicer than my duffle bag, but not a briefcase. I'd like to sling the bag over my shoulder, so perhaps I want some sort of messenger bag. I'd like to stay away from a daypack. I would prefer a bag where if my waterbottle or lunch container leaked (it does from time to time), that the leakage wouldn't damage the Ipad. Thanks for your help!

Omarosa and Bethenny Frankel faced off in an awkward clash on Frankel's talk show yesterday.
Their feud stemmed from a previous episode of The View, in which Frankel suggested that she had a better career than the Apprentice star.
"It really hurt my feelings, I have to tell you, because I thought we were friends," Omarosa said, adding that Frankel's comments were "bad form".
"After I watched it, I thought, 'Why would she go on The View and badmouth me?"
The duo disagreed on what was said, to the extent that Frankel bet $10,000 (£6,235) that she never said the words: "I have a real career."
When Frankel was proved wrong, she agreed to hand over the cash, but admitted that she stands by her comments on The View.
"You say, 'I have a brand' as if I haven't worked for the last decade to continue to entertain people, to provide good programming for folks and to be a good strong role model," Omarosa replied. "I'm unapologetic about being a strong African American woman who does not apologise.
"It's different for you. I'm an African American woman. You get to walk around and be mediocre and you still get rewarded with things. We have to be exceptional to get anything in this business."
Omarosa clarified that she did not mean to call Frankel "mediocre" following gasps from the audience, but said she has a "brand" and accused Frankel of "not walking in [her] own truth".
"You don't accept your own truth," she said. "This is me giving you a little religion. Let me give you a little religion. The moment you accept your real truth, everything is going to open up for you - your happiness, your joy, your relationships. It's going to open up. But it cannot happen until you accept your own truth, and that's when the audience I think will connect with you."
Omarosa pointed out that she has been in the business for ten years, adding: "I want to see you here still, this show, Bethenny, a year from now. I hope so."
When Frankel tried to respond she became frustrated with Omarosa speaking over her and said: "I am letting you speak, and now I'm going to speak... I meant what I said. I think you do have a career.
"I invited you here because I don't think that you have a brand. I think that you're infamous. That's what I really think. I'm on the show because I want to give a point of view and let you give your point of view. I don't think you have a brand."
Her comments prompted Omarosa to respond: "Honey, you make cupcakes. I worked in the White House. Get a grip."
Frankel then repeatedly asked Omarosa to define her brand, prompting the reality star to reply: "I'm a strong businesswoman who celebrates being smart, and there is a brand in being smart... I have an accomplished career."
The pair continued to squabble until Omarosa said that she hopes the young women she teaches don't get "discouraged" from watching them argue, saying: "[We're] two women who have an opportunity to put things behind us. We have a chance to turn this thing around."
However, Frankel simply replied: "No, we don't."

Cutting Edges: Beauty that Creates, Justice that Delights: Arts that Can Transform China and the United States
By Dr. K. K. Yeo, Harry R. Kendall Professor of New Testament
I live in two worlds: The United States and China. I do miss riding a bicycle in Beijing, and with 50 million cars in the city, catching a taxi can be a challenge. What the government calls "smog," many call "heavy pollution." For 30 years, China has been able to sustain an annual economic growth of eight to 10 percent, but we know now that the people are paying the price. This also is true in the United States but with a different set of problems; many are paying the price for our democracy, economic prosperity, and national security. How can theological education today remain prophetic and priestly? Paul's timely truth is that, "Do not be conformed to this age (aeon), but be transformed by the renewing of your minds (noos), so that you may discern what is the will of God—what is good (virtuous) and acceptable (delightful) and perfect (whole)" (Romans 12:2). It is beauty that brings truth and good to our inner core of being.
Modern secular "prophets" know the power of imagination to shape the world. David Shambaugh titled his edited volume,Tangled Titans: The United Statesand China (2012), while in her book, China: Fragile Superpower (2007), Susan Shirk warns of China's "brittle authoritarian regime" and its "deep sense of domestic insecurity." I prefer not to see goodness as in the field of ethics, but rather follow Confucius in perceiving goodness as determined by the beautiful to become the social fabric of a good society. Analects 13:3 reads, "When affairs do not culminate successfully, rites and music do not flourish; when rites and music do not flourish, punishments will not correct crimes." It is the rituals (rites), not the rule or laws (rights) that shape us to be fully human. "To live in the neighborhood of benevolence (ren) is beauty" (Analects 4:1). We ought to be "lifted by poetry, formed by rituals (li), and perfected by music" (Analects 8:8).
Old Testament prophets are God's artists, whose "prophetic imagination" enable them to see far deeper into social problems than most kings, scribes, and legalists can perceive. They see through the veil of appearances to glimpses of a different reality. They use various artistic means to proclaim the message of repentance and hope (Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea). "Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream" (Amos 5:24).
Theological education at Garrett-Evangelical is not programmatic, propaganda, professional training (trade school); instead, it is about the spiritual reception of the prophetic ethos (salt), the priestly passion (light), and "obedience of faith" (faithful discipleship) of the Gospel in the world. The work of the Art Committee at our seminary is precisely to realize that which cannot be taught but can be caught, i.e., to foster a theological pedagogy of pneumatic creativity in the classroom. Many professors at our seminary are using music and film and visual arts in their classes. You will discover the pervasive presence of art on campus as pedagogy for transformation, addressing chaos, violence, and oppression. The promotion of the arts includes photographic contextual analysis of one's ministry site; the creative process as contemplation, providing "knowledge of God impregnated with love" (Gregory the Great) toward the creation of social justice; painting prayers as an experience of transcendence; and the useof collage to depict one's future ministry as we imagine the new heaven and new earth as God's desire for the world. "Beautiful in art can move our heart at its depths, bringing us to a state in which we are open to seeing Christ and imagining the reign of God he came to usher in" (Cecilia González-Andrieu, Bridge to Wonder ). The world needs art from Christians, art that tells the story of truth, goodness, and beauty.
We are God's "masterpiece" (poema), created in Christ Jesus to do "good" (Ephesians 2:10). As harbingers of justice and love, may we, the image of God, be transformed into God's creativity and beauty, even as we encounter the Cross through the interceding Spirit, and thereby "taken up wholesale into the reality of the beautiful . . . fully subordinate to it, determined by it, animated by it" (von Balthasar, The Glory of the Lord).

Revision of WoW-Pro Addon from Sat, 2010-11-13 06:01
WoW-Pro is pleased to present it's brand new, custom coded addon! In the future this addon will be able to bring all of our awesome guides into the game, but for now it is only compatible with leveling guides.
The addon is designed to provide easy, streamlined questing and leveling in a completely customizable package.
More details about the new addon and awesome screenshots after the break.
You can download our addon from:
REQUIRED Addons
The WoW-Pro addon currently REQUIRES TomTom (download here) in order to work properly.
INTERIM USE ONLY: Our addon will now pull coordinates from Lightheaded if none are provided. All coordinates WILL be provided in the future.
Automatic detection of objective completion:
- Detect quest accept, completion and turn-in
- Detect travel (in any form)
- Detection of flight point discovery
- Detection of Hearth point change
- Conditionals based on player's class, race, completed quests, and item possession
Completely customizable frame:
- Size can be changed to display many steps or only one
- Step explanations can be displayed always or only show on hover over
- Text can be customized: font, color, and size can be changed
- Spacing and padding of the guide window can be customized.
- Border and background texture can be changed or removed
- Background color can be changed
- Titlebar displaying zone and progress can be removed
Other awesome features:
- Integrated quest tracker (can be disabled if desired)
- Integrated quest item buttons
- Easily accessed view of entire guide
- Sortable guide lists
- Automatic mapping of coordinates with TomTom
- LDB quick open/close button
- Profile management for display settings
- Supports step skipping (the guide knows the difference between a skipped step and a completed step)
Minimalist View w/ Mouse-over Notes
Dropdown Menu
Sort-able Guide List
Current Version: 1.7.0
NOTE: This addon is still in a heavy development stage. It is recommended that you delete the WoWPro.lua file in your WTF folder when upgrading to the new version. However, this will result in the loss of manually checked off guide progress and display settings.
New Features
- Several guide files have been updated
- Keybindings added!
- Custom print function tells you when it's our addon talking to you
Bug Fixes:
- Serious crash issue related to quest items fixed!
- Issue related to getting quest objectives fixed
- Issue related to getting quest entries from the log fixed
- Taint issues introduced by checking party members fixed
- Addon now checks if item exists before attempting to set it as a use item.
Known Issues:
- Unable to check off item - the step probably doesn't have a QID, which means it's a mistake in the guide file. There are sadly still a lot of these around. Try right-clicking the check box, or listing it as sticky. We'll fix these as they find them but we have to be focused more on Cataclysm guides right now. Sorry!
- Profession Quest Error: Profession-specific quests currently cause the guide to throw an error, because of the changes to the profession window. Will be fixed in the next version!
- Occasional crash/DC - the addon is causing occasional crashes and DCs. We are working to find the source of this issue - please report any occurrences of this so we can determine the problem! It may have to do with conflicting addons, so if you do experience this problem, try disabling other addons and see if that allows you to continue.
How To Help:
If you'd like to help code, update, or test guide files, head over to our How To Contribute page on gitthub!
Though this addon is now in it's release stage, it's still new. There may be bugs. The best place to report them is on github, but I will respond here as often as I can. Thanks!
Possible Future Features:
- Animation for checking off steps (a check mark appears, old quest fades out, other quests move up).
- Either integration of the arrow, or permission from TomTom's author to redistribute their addon, maintaining the author's name and the addon's original name (basically leaving the addon untouched).
- Support for area vs. patrol vs. player run path type coordinates.
- Auto-load a guide based on level
- A separate "shopping list" frame which can be opened with a button on the title bar, used for a couple things in the leveling guide but which will get the most use for profession guides.
- Improved logic/display for multi-objective steps. Not exactly sure how this would work, but perhaps have "substeps" which are displayed together, and checked off as they are completed.
Possible Future Modules:
- WoW-Pro Talents - Easy talent recommendations while leveling, for all specs. Possibly include rotation suggestions as well. For players jumping in partway through, it should be able to detect their current talent changes and adjust accordingly, or recommend a respec if the talents are too messed up. Talents should be prioritized to make sure people pick up the most vital ones. Recommendations of glyphs would also be nice.
- WoW-Pro Dungeons - Guides to dungeons. Easy access while leveling, recommended dungeons for your level and gear. Include gear lists, etc. Step by step guides, preferably with pictures, includes boss kill strategies.
- WoW-Pro Gold Making - Daily quests, gathering/farming circuits, perhaps even auctioneer advice.
- WoW-Pro Reputation - Reputation guides created using the addon.
- WoW-Pro Holiday - Holiday guides created using the addon.
- WoW-Pro Achievements - Other achievement guides.
- WoW-Pro Professions - Profession and tradeskill guides.
Possible Future Modules:
If I missed you or you think you should be included somewhere else on this list, please let me know! I'm very forgetful!

major problem
Submitted by grayarrow on Sat, 2016-05-21 18:25.
there is a major problem with your addon. when there's quests that require everyone to turn them in prior to starting the RP it can screw everyone else out of the opportunity to turn in if you get some ahole that is an early clicker. just had it happen in an instance. only one person got to progress the questline, the rest of us didnt get to turn in the originating quest to progress it. should really change this.
A minor point

I hate to say this, but over
Submitted by Merancapeman on Tue, 2015-01-13 09:15.
I hate to say this, but over the past several weeks I've been hitting the same problem: once I enter Fort Wrynn in Talador, quests aren't where they're supposed to be. The guide sometimes directs me to a place where there's actually a mission, but 75% of the time I'm running into an area with no quests. I've just stopped at "Dropping the Bombs," and I noticed that most of the quests that the guide keeps sending me to revolve around Miall. I've never gotten a quest from her but for some reason the guide is telling me to get a quest from her. At one point I actually found the NPC, but she had nothing to offer me and was nowhere near where the guide sent me to. I've leveled at lteast two other toons, and it's consistent and very annoying.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to level a toon without this addon. I love it.
Miall gives quest for the Arsenal
Submitted by Blanckaert on Sun, 2015-01-25 02:31.
Ludo... Those quests are NOT for the Arcane Sanctum... I did just make some notes in the guide, and put in 2 comments around the section that he is referring to. This is also one I had commented about a few weeks ago when I ran another toon through there.

Neutral Guides?
Submitted by JamesL85 on Tue, 2014-11-11 06:10.
Just downloaded the newest version (6.0.2) and started a new Death Knight. I looked and looked and couldn't find the Death Knight starting zone guide. After more looking, it appears that none of the Neutral guides are in the Guide Selection screen.
Playing Alliance, if that helps.
Neutral guides
Submitted by Emmaleah on Tue, 2014-11-11 09:45.
I made a new death knight to see and ... yep its true, the death knight starting guide does not auto load, and when I went searching it wasnt in the list to load manually either. It does appear the other neutral guides are present though. Checked with both horde and alliance death knights.
Also, while I was looking at this, I noticed the Hellfire alliance guide is registered at lvl 55? did that change or is it a typo? I assume its a typo since the horde guide still says 58.

I didn't see the Panda
Submitted by JamesL85 on Wed, 2014-11-12 02:11.
I didn't see the Panda starting zone in the list. I mistakenly thought it would be, not realizing it's a race specific guide. Never thought the DK zone was class specific.
Thanks for fixing it so quickly!!!
Turn off Recorder.
Submitted by Lord_Greystar on Sun, 2014-10-19 18:47.
How do you turn off the recorder? Also the TomTom hack you did, it still spams some type of code all the time, so does WoW-Pro for that matter. I end up disabling both again.
Update as this comment kinda annoyed me.
Submitted by Lord_Greystar on Fri, 2014-11-14 20:42.
1) You can't turn it off there is no option to, doesnt even show up in the addon list as being there.
2) Deleted the folder for the recorder to "Turn it off". Problem solved.

Same question: How do you setup the inclusion of heirlooms during your leveling?
Heirlooms & Rank
Submitted by Emmaleah on Mon, 2014-10-20 09:59.
I apologize to say I almost never use the rank tag. Luckily for everyone heirlooms don't (currently) apply to the lvl 85plus content I did the guides for. That being said. I have a horrid time trying to decide what to flag as rank 3 or even 2. I like questing and its all important to me. OK, I admit there are a few quests I could mark with a RANK 3 but its the odd one for sure. With the WoD guides I started out marking some quests as rank 2, but then I was hitting level 100 with only a few quests left and reading reports of people who didn't quite make it. So, if you plan to level in WoD (as it is currently tuned) you pretty much have to do all the quest chains. (or gain XP in alternate ways such as dungeons).
My personal thoughts aside, the point of my comment is that the Rank tag is not necesarily uniformly applied and any given guide may or may not make use of it. I personally think you are better served by skipping a zone in a progression. So, when the quests go green (or have been green for a bit), move on to the zone that you are just barely high enough to survive in (and get quests in) thus skipping a zone or two each time.

Interesting possible bug?
Submitted by Hendo72 on Wed, 2014-03-19 18:30.
Whenever I disable WoWPro from Titan panel or the minimap, The TomTom arrow seems to revert back to the last cordinates that it was given by the addon.
For example, the last guide I had loaded was Kun-Lai Summit because I was looking for the Sturdy Yaungol Spear to finish the guide. Now every time the Addon is disabled or can't load the next guide, it automatically sets the TomTom arrow to point to those coordinates.
On a side note... when I click on a completed guide, instead of moving to the next one, it doubles the step count in the guide selection window and loads a blank guide.
I went back and attempted to verify what happens exactly before I post this and I noticed that the guide does not need to be completed to do it. It is doubling the step count for every guide. Reloading the UI does not fix it. Neither does relogging the toon. You have to restart the game to fix it.
I didn't say it was your fault. I said I was going to blame you.

I'm still having the issue where TomTom to will revert to the last cordinates it was given if its not given any by the guide.
I'm not sure if this is a WoW-Pro or TomTom issue.

TomTom: Fragment of Dread - 48.49, 89.46 (map:810, floor: 0)
I used the "remove all waypoints" option and that seems to have cleared up the problem. I have to wait until the situation comes up again with no cordinates being passed to TomTom to see if it's fixed for certain.

Guide display crashed. Swatter captured error messages.
Submitted by Hendo72 on Mon, 2013-12-30 05:55.
I tripped an error in the krasarang_wilds_alliance guide and crashed the addon. The display window started checking the boxes as I completed the steps, but it wouldn't hide the step. I attempted to correct it by disabling and re-enabling the addon using the Titan button. I got a message that it was disabled, but the display did not close. I tried this a few times with no success. I tried reloading the UI and that changed nothing.It took reloading the game to fix it.
I think I found the problem that caused the guide to crash. I don't know why the guide reacted the way it did after that.
I ran the Guide Checker to see if it could tell me where the issue was and that tripped an error (whole different issue). It was at this point I noticed that I'd captured numerous error codes. I have pasted 1 of the messages below. There are at least 14 different messages with the same time stamp.

Are private hospitals cashing in by preforming unneeded C-sections?
The decision on where to give birth to your baby is taken very early in the pregnancy. Here in Oman, for example, Muscat Private Hospital doesn't accept late term registrations. If you want to give birth in their hospital, you have to decide right from the begining and sign-in for their package which includes the birth as well as the prenatal visits during the pregnancy.
At the time that we were making this decision a lot of people told us that private hospitals are more likely to go for a C-section because they make more money that way. I was inclined to believe it just on the basis of all the women I know who gave caesarian births at private hospitals compared to the others I know who gave birth in government hospitals where the ratio of natural birth was much higher. In the end we chose to go for a public hospital for various factors including our choice of doctor who said she would be more comfortable working with her team at Khoula Hospital rather than with a team she's not used to at a private hospital.
The statistics in the graphic above are based Sharjah hospitals. It shows that in 2004 82% of births in public hospitals were by natural delivery, going down to 81% in 2005. However in Sharjah's private hospitals the figures show that only 73% of births were by natural delivery in 2004, going down to 67% in 2005.
Could it be because private hospitals are more likely to give the choice between natural birth or caesarian to women (which some women prefer), or are these private hospitals really taking advantage to make a profit?

Relive the Roses
Nov. 28, 2007
By Jason Krump
The Cougars' quest for an Apple Cup win, a Pac-10 Championship and Rose Bowl berth, and to make history, would take place on an overcast, wet afternoon, before a crowd of 74,268, the largest ever to attend an Apple Cup game.
Befitting the dreary conditions, things did not start out well for WSU.
On the Cougars' first possession, Ryan Leaf, who was returning to the venue where he made his first collegiate start in 1995, injured the thumb on his throwing hand when it collided with a Washington player's helmet.
'I dislocated it when it got caught in (linebacker) Jason Chorak's facemask; he took off and it dislocated,' Leaf said. 'Luckily, I was able to wear one of those hand warmers around my waist. I was able to hide my hand from Coach Price the whole game so he couldn't see how big my thumb was getting.'
After forcing the Cougars to punt, Washington proceeded to move down the field on a 14-play 71-yard drive, which ended when Brock Huard connected with Jerome Pathon from 15 yards out to place the Huskies ahead 7-0.
On the Cougars' next offensive possession, three plays netted negative one yard, and WSU was forced to punt once again.
'To this day, it was still the funnest football game I have played in.'
-Ryan Leaf
But on Washington's first play, Huard tried to take a shot deep downfield but was intercepted by defensive back Adesola Moronkola, foreshadowing the day to come for the Husky quarterback.
As the first quarter ended, the Cougars were in the process of taking advantage of the turnover with a 14-play drive of their own, this one covering 73 yards and ending with a Michael Black 8-yard touchdown run that tied the game at seven.
On the third play of the Huskies' ensuing possession, Huard once again tried to go deep only to find the same result as he was picked off for a second time, this time by Ray Jackson, giving WSU the ball at its own 30.
Three plays gained 13 yards, and the Cougar offense was faced with a third-and-13 at its own 43-yard line, thus setting the stage for one of the most memorable plays in WSU football history.
'That was an audible by Leaf,' Chris Jackson said of a play that will forever be remembered by Cougar fans. 'He looked over to his left and one of their defensive backs came up and pressed me at the line of scrimmage. Leaf just kind of gave me a look and made an audible.
'I knew I was going to run a quick little fade route and Leaf put the ball up,' Jackson continued. 'After I caught the ball I was able to get by the first defender (Toure Butler).'
But Washington free safety Tony Parrish had his sights set on Jackson, whose performance in the game would be under great scrutiny after his 'bulletin board material' comments made earlier in the week.
'He was always the headhunter throughout his college career,' Jackson said of Parrish. 'I wasn't going to shy away and I just said to myself that I'm a bigger receiver, I'm just going to put all my weight down, put my head down, and I did it.
'All of a sudden, next thing I know, he was on his back,' Jackson continued. 'I was pulling my leg away from his arm and running it in for the remaining yards.'
As fast as Jackson reached the end zone, he was just as quickly mobbed by his teammates and even Butch, the Cougar mascot.
'When Chris Jackson made that unbelievable catch on the sidelines, it just showed how the game was going to go that day,' Jason McEndoo said.
Jackson's scintillating 57-yard touchdown reception gave WSU a 14-7 lead. Trailing for the first time in the game, the Huskies responded by driving to the Cougars' 22-yard line but Huard's third interception of the half, this one by Lamont Thompson, ended that threat.
Once again, the Cougars took advantage of the turnover and once again, used another 14-play drive to do so. Rian Lindell's 20-yard field goal capped a 17-point second quarter for the Cougars, who went into the half with a 17-7 advantage.
Huard started the second half as he ended the first, with an interception by Thompson. Thompson's second pick of the day was made possible when the ball went through the hands of Pathon. WSU capitalized on the Huskies' fourth turnover of the day, with the aid of a little luck.
On a second-and-goal from the three, Black fumbled at the two, but he the ball went forward into the end zone where offensive lineman Rob Rainville recovered, and WSU's advantage was extended to 24-7.
The Cougars were flagged for a personal foul on the extra point try, which was assessed on the kickoff. That set Washington up with good field position when Pathon returned the kick to Washington's 46-yard line. It took UW only four plays to score when Huard connected with Fred Coleman from 38-yards out to close to within 10 at 24-14.
Washington's deficit soon was reduced to three when, just three minutes later, Parrish read Leaf perfectly, intercepted his pass in the middle of the field and returned it 32 yards for a touchdown.
Suddenly, what had been a 17-point lead was trimmed to just a margin of a field goal. The capacity crowd, which had been muted for most of the game, was back into it.
Momentum was squarely in the Huskies favor; however, throughout the 1997 season, each time the Cougars were threatened, they answered. Whether it was against UCLA, USC, Illinois, Oregon, Arizona, Arizona State, or Stanford, the team found a way to respond when challenged.
'Every time they did something, we answered,' Mike Levenseller said. 'Ryan had that ability to put the team on his shoulders. It didn't matter what the circumstances were.
The Cougars' offense response to this adverse situation proved to be no different.
Starting their next possession at their own 20, Leaf connected with Kevin McKenzie for 18 yards on a third-and-nine. Two plays later, the Leaf-Jackson combination came through on another big play. Leaf's pass flew just over Husky cornerback Mel Miller and into the hands of Jackson, who raced down the right sideline for a 50-yard touchdown that extended WSU's lead to 31-21.
But Washington's offense had found its rhythm, and Huard hit Mike Reed for a 17-yard score to pull within three for a second time at 31-28 with 15 seconds remaining in the third quarter.
As the fourth quarter began, the Cougars were clinging to a tenuous three-point lead; either they were 15 minutes away from a historic victory or 15 minutes away from a devastating disappointment.
The Cougar offense made sure it would be the former. On the ensuing drive's first play, Leaf connected with Jackson for 14 yards, and that was immediately followed by a 37-yard run by Black, who finished the day with 170 yards on 37 carries. The eight-play, 66-yard drive was capped when, on a third-and-goal from the one, Leaf tried to sneak it in, and avoided disaster when he recovered his own fumble to score.
'It was exactly what we had done all year long,' Leaf said. 'Every time we were down in the hole we would push back through and got to the point where either it was win and go to the Rose Bowl or lose and don't.'
This time Washington was unable to answer. A holding call negated a Huard to Pathon 22-yard connection that would have converted a third-and-12, and UW was forced to punt.
WSU's lead grew to 13 points on a Lindell field goal ending a 12-play, 62-yard drive. Just as importantly, it ate up 5:42 of the clock.
In addition, the score increased WSU's point total to 41; therefore fulfilling Jackson's Sunday prediction of the Cougars putting up 40 points on the Huskies.
'I had guys come up to me who played on past teams, saying, `You did it for us.' Person after person just kept coming up and saying that stuff. That's what made it so special.'
-Jason McEndoo
Just over four minutes remained, and it was about this time the UCLA-USC game ended. The Bruins did their part to help the Cougars' cause with a 31-24 win over the Trojans.
'We knew that UCLA had won and Jim Zeches (outside linebackers/recruiting coordinator) and I were in the press box,' Levenseller recalled. 'They had the scores on a white board and nobody would talk about it. Jim and I were the only ones that knew. We looked at each other and didn't say anything to each other.'
There were no announcements of the game score occurring in the stadium and both Levenseller and Zeches would not divulge what they knew, until asked to do so.
'Mike finally comes on,' Levenseller continued, 'and asked, `Does anybody know?' I said, `Mike we win, we go to the Rose Bowl,' and he said `OK.' That was it.'
Also during this time, something unique was happening in the stadium . . . Husky fans were cheering for the Cougars.
'I can remember midway through that fourth quarter, we were in a tough situation and we made a first down and the crowd roar was unbelievable,' Bill Doba said. 'I think half of the Husky fans were for us too.'
'It was almost like Rocky 4 where even the Huskies started cheering for us,' Ryan McShane said. 'It was a surreal moment to hear everyone cheering for us, Cougs and Huskies, it was pretty cool.'
Any hopes for a Husky comeback were erased on Huard's fifth interception, by, once more, Thompson. In a performance that has lived in Apple Cup history, the freshman free safety registered three interceptions on the day, in addition to leading the team with 12 tackles (nine unassisted). Thompson, who didn't make his first start until Southwestern Louisiana due to injuries in the secondary, was coming off a two interception performance against the Cardinal the previous week.
The Huskies did manage a touchdown with nine seconds left on a Huard to Pathon 32-yard pass, but Shawn McWashington recovered the onside kick.
Just before Leaf took a final knee to seal the victory, the Husky public address announcer, Lou Gellermann, gave the result from the UCLA game that set off a roar from the crowd.
Once Leaf took the knee, a dream 67 years in the making became reality.
'Personally, it was a great feeling,' Price recalled of game's end. 'It was a special moment.'
As fans rushed onto the field to begin what would be a frenetic celebration, Gellermann instigated another cheer when he said: 'From the athletic department at the University of Washington: Washington State, good luck at the Rose Bowl.'
'It was surreal to be partying on the field after the game,' McShane said. 'It was Crimson and Gray all over Husky Stadium.'
The win was not only significant for what it meant for the players in the present Cougar team, but also players who wore the Cougar uniform in the past.
'The rivalry between the Huskies and Cougars, you either are or you aren't,' said McEndoo, who hailed from Cosmopolis, Wash. 'For me, growing up on the west side, and to beat them to go to the Rose Bowl was just awesome.
'I had guys come up to me who played on past teams, saying, `You did it for us,'' McEndoo added. 'Person after person just kept coming up and saying that stuff. That's what made it so special. It encompassed the entire Cougar Nation. Every single person who ever donned the Crimson and Gray wanted to be part of that Rose Bowl.'
'It was just a rush of feelings that you couldn't comprehend at the time,' said Leaf, who threw for 358 yards despite the damaged thumb. 'I didn't fully understand the ramifications of it; we were trying to be in the moment and accomplish what we needed to do.
'To be in Husky Stadium, where I made my first start in college and made my last start in college, not considering the Rose Bowl,' Leaf added. 'It was my favorite place to play. To this day, it was still the funnest football game I have played in.'
While the Cougars were celebrating, one Husky, despite experiencing one of the toughest games in his career, waited to offer his congratulations to a coach who had recruited him.
'Brock Huard waited in the tunnel for me and I thought that was a class act,' Doba said. 'He waited in the tunnel probably 15 to 20 minutes. When I came in he said, `I wanted to congratulate you and good luck on the Rose Bowl.''
And then there was Jackson. He provided scribes plenty to write and talk about before the game and provided the Husky defense all it could handle during. He finished with eight catches for 185 yards and two touchdowns.
'During the game, my best memories are of Chris,' Steve Gleason said. 'What a statement he made to back up his statements in the paper.'
'That was the storybook ending,' Jackson said. 'A lot of people thought maybe a victory at the Rose Bowl would be, but the storybook was the Pac-10 championship.
'No one can take that away.'

Free Brushes
I just discovered QBrushes a great resource for Photoshop brushes. All the ones I've looked at have been Creative Commons licensed with an Attribution license, which is awesome.
If you didn't know, all GIMP versions greater than v2.4 can load Photoshop brushes. To do it, you need to figure out where the GIMP stores your brushes and just copy the .ABR files to that location. You can find out where by clicking Edit > Preferences. Expand the Folders list and select Brushes. There should be a path with the writable option selected. That is where you should save your brushes.
I will probably create a new page for this blog with resources like this that I use frequently. Once it's created, I'll post about it.
Edit: Check out the Resources page.
Text Effect Tutorials
Web and Designers has a great list of their top 30 favorite text effect tutorials done in Photoshop. I think I'll endeavor to cover a few of my favorites in this list as well as any you'd like to see. Leave a comment with your favorite, and I'll get to work on a few of them.
Should I Include Inkscape?
What I'm wondering is, should I include Inkscape as a tool for the tutorials on this blog? It's another open-source application which does vector paths a lot better than the GIMP's GFig plugin and I could make things like the Web 2.0 violators look a million times better. I'd still try to do everything here with the GIMP whenever possible, only using Inkscape when I felt it could accomplish the task in a way the GIMP could not.
I don't know how to do one of the fancy polls, so just post a comment with your opinion please. Thank you.
Update: It seems like the overwhelming majority would appreciate some Inkscape content. Havoc makes a very good point though. I'm a very busy guy. I'm a husband and a father. I have a full time job, and I am also taking a couple of courses at the local University. My time is Precious. However, one of the benifits of my job is that when things are going well, I can pretty much research and do what I please. I'm not terribly familiar with Inkscape, but since people (including myself) feel that it is a valuable addition, I will make an effort to include it when appropriate. After all, one of the reasons I started this project is to learn new things. So far, there's really only been one post where it would have made a difference in my opinion, so there may not be much call for it.
Thank you everyone. I really appreciate the input.
Hello New Visitors
Holy moly. I checked my blog stats on a whim, and for a minute, I thought maybe I had somehow logged in as someone else. Right now I'm sitting at 1,801 hits, and at this rate, it looks like we'll hit 2,000 before the day is done. (My previous high was 39. As in, less than 40.) I believe I have Ubuntu Blog and Planet Ubuntu to thank, so, thanks!
I hope you are all finding something useful. Keep in mind I just started this blog recently, so after a while there will be a lot more material. I would love it if you would recommend some tutorials you'd like to see adapted. It's helpful to know what people are looking for. Before today, my most popular posts were the ones regarding Web 2.0, but now it seems most are checking the Lomography adaptation out.
I seriously almost cried when I opened up google reader and saw my blogs' name right up on top. I even took a screenshot.
Thanks again for visiting. I hope you'll stick around. I should have some new content for you very soon!
Update: Just cracked 2,000 visitors. Thanks everyone, you're seriously making my day.
Busy busy busy
I've got a lot going on right now, but I wanted to let everyone know that there are more Photoshop adaptations in the works for you. I'll probably put up new content this weekend. We'll move away from this web 2.0 business and delve into the real meat and potatoes: photo retouching. Stay tuned, and we'll hopefully be able to help some of you photog's out there save a bit of cash and maybe learn a few things.
Hello GIMP Users!
As it says in my info page, I'll be using this space to adapt existing popular Photoshop tutorials into GIMP tutorials. I will attempt to obtain permission from original tutors when necessary, and will at least always attribute the original work, so if you'd like to see something done the Photoshop way, you can simply follow the attribution links to the original work.
At some point, I plan on actually being more proficient with GIMP and will be authoring original Gimparoo tutorials. If you ever see the "Gimparoo" tag attached to a post and no attribution links, this means I have succeeded.
For those of you wondering what the heck GIMP is; GIMP stands for "GNU Image Manipulation Program". It is a program similar to but not exactly like Adobe's popular Photoshop application. The most significant difference to the lay user is that GIMP is free. I say "lay user" because Photoshop does have significant advantages for the professional user, but to the average user, GIMP is more than sufficient. Especially for free. You can download GIMP and a large number of add-ons for Windows, Macintosh or Linux by visiting their website. If you are running some modern flavor of Linux, chances are good that you already have it installed. Being open source software, there are a number of ways you can personally contribute to the project. Please explore the GIMP homepage and it's associated links for more information.
So, on with the show already! Up next I'll start with everyone's favorite new fad: Web 2.0. I'll be walking you through a few of the more popular Web 2.0 Photoshop tutorials, GIMP style, and hopefully we'll all learn something in the process.

News Quickies:
'Because who doesn't like a quickly every now and then?!'

"I don't like it to be honest with you".
Stating his distaste for the direction of the movie and the film itself , Haim says there will be a 3rd Lost Boys and it will be 'better, more like the 1st one' Stay tuned…
-Short film The diary of Anne Frank of the dead splits viewers in half:
Awarded 'Best Short' at Dragoncon, this film has split reviews on Myspace.
49% of voting users HATED it, calling it 'disrespectful' and 'tasteless' while others hailed it as 'cool' and 'kick ass'. Go check it out and email me your thoughts. More on this one later…
-Pulse 3: Invasion is set to hit stores December 20th:

Woohoo! One more to go and mama Dai is goin' shoppin'!

Uber excited guys. I LOVE Mr. Burton and getting to see Johnny in another one of his film makes me all tingly inside.
Night Of The Demons returns:
The remake of this 1988 movie has started it principle photography in the great city of New Orleans. This is a film to keep a close watch on so I will keep ya updated!
What I'm watching?:
Being my fav month of the year, October always produces the best chances to get horror films anytime and anywhere!
Walmart has come out with special promotions and put some of the classics in two and three DVD set boxes.
I personally picked up the Psycho set that has Psycho 2, 3 ,and 4 and the the box that contains People Under The Stairs and Shocker.
These films never get old for me. And the sets only cost $10, so its totally worth picking them up for Fright-Night-Fridays!
Also, I got Quench which is set to be released Oct. 28th (stay tuned for that review) and will soon be getting Squeal. So I will let ya know about these next week.
So ya wanna win something huh?

The DAC8820, a multiplying digital-to-analog converter
(DAC), is designed to operate from a single 2.7 V to
5.5 V supply.
The applied external reference input voltage VREF
determines the full-scale output current. An internal
feedback resistor (RFB) provides temperature tracking
for the full-scale output when combined with an
external, current-to-voltage (I/V) precision amplifier.
A parallel interface offers high-speed communications. The DAC8820 is packaged in a space-saving SSOP-28 package and has an industry-standard pinout.
