"It was twenty years ago today. Sgt Pepper taught the band to play," go the famous Fab Four lyrics, but the hilarious Beatles 3000 clip above, courtesy of Zoltarkill and www.scottgairdner.com, travels a thousand years forward into the imaginary future to examine "the legacy of John, Paul, Greg, and Scottie." Starring Ryan Mitchell, Perry Smith, Scott Gairdner, Brian Lyman, and Nick Mundy, this inspired ensemble of witty satirists imagine how future anthropologists and historians might attempt to (but fall way short of) retelling the accurate history of a pop group called The Beatles.
In addition to getting the line-up incorrect (John Lennon, Paul McKenzie, Greg Hutchinson, and Scottie Pippen), these imaginary history tellers in the year 3000 also hilariously fudge facts about Beatles songs and album titles, crediting "Parents Just Don't Understand" and "Don't Stop Believin" to the Fab Four and naming their hit single "Ticket To Run" and one of their albums Sgt. Petsounds & The Spiders From Asia. (Sgt Pepper's has been parodied before many times including by The Simpsons, left). Beatles 3000 offers other numerous and hilarious Beatles history faux pas and the 3 & 3/4 minute clip (made back in November) is well worth viewing if you have not seen it already.

Dear all,
I finally purchased AmigaOS 4.1 FE for Pegasos 2 but after a straightforward install I'm getting too many Grim Reapers Guru Mediation 0x80000003 Data Storage Interrupt. My system is:
- Pegasos II SmartFirmware 1.1 (up050404), CPU PowerPC G4 1 GHz board rev. 1.1
- 1GB RAM 2x 512MB DDR400
- ATI Radeon 9250 128MB V/D/VO AGP
- HDD 160GB (master) and LG DVD RAM (slave) with 80-pin cable (not cable select settings)
- Amiga OS FE 4.1 Update 1
- 100Mbit/s onboard Ethernet using DHCP
HDD has four partitions: boot 1GB (FFS), DH0 15 GB (FFS), SWAP 8GB and DH1 50GB, (FFS). Unformatted space available.
I'm experiencing random Grim Reapers as mentioned, especially (but not only) during disk access, for example while using SDK GCC, or trying to load Timberwolf, at the some point (in this case). I tried to debug and go deeper and in one case crashed module was "newlib", but this is a too much poor statistic to state it always depends on it.
Sometimes the machine freezes completely during graphical operations, like zooming an area in AmiPDF or resizing a Multiview window while playing an animation.
It's annoying and frustrating as I would like to enjoy my AmigaOS machine!
Since I have much spare hardware, I have tried many combinations, like replacing the video card or using slower RAM or a smaller capacity hard drive but it doesn't seem crashes depend on these parts.
Could someone please provide a bit of support? Please let me know what additional information is required.
Thank you

Hi Everyone!
I've been wanting to blog - Mark is in the garage and I'm trying to watch some of the ELLEN shows I have on the dvr and putting away some of Saba's clothes that are all over the place when I change her in a rush - all the while making sure Hanz doesn't get in to trouble! What kind of trouble? Oh, his favorite - going into our bedroom and walking off w/some of my socks and Crocs! He's already had his bath today, as he will be going w/us to Rockport on Sunday to see Uncle Jim and Aunt Shelley! Hanz will be staying to visit w/his cousins Ripley, Emee, Betsy and Katy while we are in CO! We won't leave him out there until Tuesday night, but we want to make sure and get him acquainted first! It's breaking my heart to think of leaving my baby for several days, but he'll probably have a blast out there! Jim and Shelley live on a big piece of property out in the country and their friends Linda and Buddy also have pets! They have a yorkie named Hockey and all of them are dog lovers, so Hanz will be very well taken care of! Sniff, sniff, waaaah!
Ok! Back to the reason I'm blogging! Went to see Dr. Zane on Thursday, and Mark came with me - I've been wanting him to see how awesome Dr. Zane really is and what excellent work he does! I'm posting lots of photos of our office visit, so get ready for that! Dr. Zane is so personable! He saw I was reading the book "The Kite Runner" and said he had read and enjoyed it as well! Also browsed through the photos I had with me of our little angel Hanz, since Dr. Zane's family has several Brussels of their own! Isn't that awesome? The Brussels he and his wife have looks like such a little princess!
So! The tech told Mark she was happy to meet him, as I talk about him all the time! Dr. Zane took a look inside my ear and was happy w/the healing process since the last time I had seen him! Still had to get some of the scabbing and old, dead tissue out of there - the look on my face in one photo tells you how painful that was! Mark took photos of the screen we were seeing everything Dr. Zane was doing on!
Dr. Zane has these tools to scrape the scab and tissue and to snip it if he doesn't want to pull any further! At one point of course, there had to be bleeding! Right away, Dr. Zane gets a Q-tip and puts pressure on the bleeding area! He also puts a cotton ball in my ear, so that the blood won't go inside my ear. He checks to see if it's still bleeding, and of course it is, so he gets another Q-tip and puts some more pressure on there. Can you say, "PAIN"?! Ugh! This is no fun at all! At one point when he was pulling on a scab I had to yell out, "OUCH"! Seems like I was holding my breath the entire time Dr. Zane was debriding my inner ear! Dr. Zane cauterized the area where I was bleeding from - yikes! That burned, whew! I just have to say how impressed I have been with Dr. Zane! He is in complete control of the situation and my having an avm and a bleed have not been a problem @ all for him! His confidence puts my mind @ ease, knowing that he is doing as much as he can to make sure I heal in the best possible way! I wanted Mark to go with me, as it's kind of hard to explain what all I go through during one of my office visits with Dr. Zane! I wanted to especially share this with all of you - this is why your prayers help me so much! This is not easy @ all! There is so much discomfort going on with my ear - it drains, it's scabbed on the inside and out, and of course painful! My appt. was @ 1:00 pm and I was not pain free until about 4:30pm! Got back to work by 2:00 pm and had a rough afternoon! My co-worker Kathy left for the day as soon as I returned, and I had ten defendants show up that I had to tend to! I was just so anxious to call it a day come 5pm, so I could relax and know that it was finally the weekend! I rushed home so I could go on the walk with Mark and Hanz since my knee had felt well all day! It wasn't until I was talking to my mom @ about 6:45pm that I realized I had forgotten my pain management appt. I had @ 5:30 pm! Mom had asked how my appts. went and I gasped when I realized I had completely zoned out that doctors appt. I had @ 5:30pm! I've since rescheduled it to Tuesday afternoon - the day before we leave for Denver! I have just enough pain meds to get through until that appt.! I also have a wound care appt. the same day I go back to work after my upcoming embolization!
I called Shalon a few minutes ago, as I boo booed and put one photo twice on this blog and I don't know how to remove it! Shalon is my blog creator/maintainer! I want to thank so many of you that tell me how much you enjoy reading my blog! I'm hoping to hear from Wendy soon after her embolization last week! She makes the trip from Canada to see Dr. Yakes! Her avm affects her upper lip and pallet!
I am soooo ready for this avm business to be overwith! It has been very overwhelming and I do have these little break downs @ times! Our original plan had been for Celia to go with me on this next trip to Denver. Unfortunately, since her mother-in-law Pat has been in ICU in Houston the last week or so, Celia is much needed there for her husband Greg and their family. I'm very happy that Mark is going with me - especially since I am still having bleeds - I think I mentioned before that Mark handles these situations very well and that eases my stress! At least I won't be missing Mark AND Hanz - this way, I'll only be missing my furry kid while in Denver! My co-worker Kathy said to me the other day, "It's just a dog"! Excuse me? I know what she is trying to say .. but first of all, a Brussels is never "just a dog"! Secondly, he is the newest member of our family - and I mean entire family! Hanz goes with us to Grandmas - there is no way I'm leaving him home alone while we're on a family visit or occasion! Lastly, Mark and I are completely in love with Hanz and are having a blast taking him for walks and just enjoying everything about him! Ok, ok ... I know, enough gushing about the little prince!
I don't think I'll blog until after our return from this upcoming embolization! Both Shalon and I will be @ Swedish @ the same time, so wish us luck! We hope to get some great photos of the two of us! Please do keep up w/Shalons website and blog - she always has interesting things to say and great photos! You can get to her site from mine! It's always great seeing her - not sure who her travel partner is this time!
Thank you so much for keeping up with us and all your love and prayers!
Mark & Cyndi
P.S. Remember I told you about the MRI I had done last Friday afternoon? Well, turns out I have a torn meniscus! Geez, when will the fun ever end?! I suppose I'll have to squeeze that in between embolizations! Plus we can't forget the physical therapy I'll have to juggle between work and wound care therapy! I'll keep you updated!

The Weepies
Tuesday, February 24, 2009
Hi Family and Friends! How is everyone? We're ok! I just felt like writing down a few things and sharing them with you! Sometimes this avm business is just overwhelming and I get what I call "the weepies", where I just have to cry! I felt that way on Sunday morning - I thought I had it together, but found myself crying during Mass. Just tired of having bleeds and trying to get off pain meds so I can have a drink and I want to live a "normal life" already! I cried thinking that one of these Colorado trips that both Mark and I will have to go - we'll be leaving little Hanz behind! I'm his mommy and I don't want him to think we abandoned him! Waaaaah!
I'm better now though, and I got a call from Christina - patient coordinater for Dr. Yakes. She wanted to confirm my appt. for next week. Christina asked if I was ok, she said I sounded down. I was just hesitant because of what all has been going on! Between my weepies and then Celia has been in Houston helping w/her mother-in-law that has been in ICU for a week! Celia is scheduled to go w/me to CO, poor thing! So I was telling Christina all that and she said if I ever need someone to talk to, to call them! She said that is what they are there for! Isn't that awesome? I did have a situation not long ago, that I called Rhonda Sharp, Dr. Yakes P.A. - and she was extremely helpful and made me feel so much better! At the time she said she would talk me off a ledge anytime!
While I'm on the subject of people helping me feel better - I must include a photo I "borrowed" from another avmer's web site! It's a good photo of my very favorite recovery room nurse Rick! He is the person I want to see when I open my eyes after an embolization! I know I'm in very good hands if Rick is on duty! He changes my bloody hospital gown, the pad on the bed, makes sure my very dry lips get some vaseline and is right there asking me if I need anything for pain! My answer is always YES! Rick is the first nurse I had in recovery that made me feel as comfortable as possible! One time I thought I might have to spend the night in recovery and it was getting late, so Rick ordered dinner for me! I didn't know the hospital would bring you dinner in recovery! Rick is just a super, fun person - just the kind of person you would want to have on duty if you were a patient in recovery @ Swedish Medical Center! He was training another nurse when I was there in January - so I hope the young man paid attention to Rick so he can help another patient as well as Rick does!
So here is a photo of Rick and of course I'll include a photo of my little angel, Hanz! I'll blog again after my appt. w/Dr. Zane on Thursday!
Oh! I can't forget one of my best buds, Felice, is so great about sending me a card or a nice e-mail to cheer me up! My friend Patty does the same! I really have so many of you supporting me w/your prayers and kindness - this is what helps me get through the "weepies"! Thank you everyone!
Lots of Love to all!!

Wound Care Monday
Monday, February 23, 2009
Hi Everyone! Here I am again! I had my usual wound care appt. today and this time Mark was able to come with me, as he had taken the day off work to get a few things done around the house! It's always comforting to me having Mark with me, and it's important to keep him up on the latest the doctor has to say about my wound care progress! Since I've been going to wound care and chatting about these folks, I thought it would be nice to show you what they look like! So here goes! The first photo is of Eric - he is usually the one that takes my vital signs when I arrive and am put in a room! Eric is very easy to talk to and a nice guy!
After Eric takes my blood pressure and temperature, it's time for Noel to come in and start removing my dressing! Noel is my favorite RN - he is very knowledgeable regarding wound care! Noel and Mark got into a conversation about the Phillipines (where Noel is from) because of something that had been on the Discover Channel or National Geographic Chanel - ugh! Anyway, here is a photo of Noel working on me! Ok, I'll throw in another photo of Noel and I just for good measure!
Of course I have to include photos of Dr. Larkin! She is the one that tells me I'm aging her when I have a bleed during wound care! Dr. Larkin wanted to make sure I told you that had she known she was being photographed, then she would have done something w/her hair! Everyone @ Spohn Wound Care has been awesome and very professional! Dr. Larkin said the lower of my two wounds had basically healed - but the wound that is higher up, is the one I had a bleed on Friday from. Wish that area would heal closed soon so I could be through w/the bleeding!
Ok! I may update this a bit tomorrow - for now, Mark has to put some ointment on my ear before both of us fall asleep! We're trying to make it as far as watching Headlines on Jay Leno!
Thank you all for your love and support!

Old photo/New bleed
Saturday, February 21, 2009
Hello again!
Unfortunately, I'm blogging to report another bleed! Ugh! This happened during lunch on Friday. I was having lunch w/Mark and my co-worker and friend Diana, when I felt something on my neck! Mark and Diana had been talking and I asked, "Am I bleeding"? They both jumped quickly because the blood was coming fast! I grabbed some napkins and headed to the restroom, while Mark ran out to the car to get my wound care bag! I had to peel the dressing off my face, all the while trying to keep the blood from getting everywhere! I had gone to the ladies room and Mark of course had to go in there to help me! A little bit later we hear a knock on the door - a lady wanted to use the facilities, but Mark told her his wife was having a problem in there right now. We tried to put some surgicel on there, but the blood was just streaming out and we needed to keep putting pressure on there some more! Finally, it seemed like the bleeding had stopped, so we were able to put the surgicel on the area it had been bleeding from! For a split second I considered taking the rest of the afternoon off work, but once we got everything under control, I decided I may as well finish the work day off! Had to clean up the floor a bit - got some blood on my tennis shoes and my t-shirt, but no big deal. My t-shirt was black, so the blood wasn't noticable. So glad Mark was w/me - it was a little tough to get that bleed under control!
I was just looking @ the clock once I was back to work, looking for it to be five o'clock! I wanted to go home and put my jammies on and get comfy w/my little Hanz! I had an appt. right after work to have an MRI done on my left knee, since it's been hurting! Luckily, the radiology place is only a few blocks from our house and I just had to take my tennis shoes off for the procedure! I guess I'll know the results some time next week. I'm thinking those darned Crocs I love(d) to wear ruined my feet! They have no arch support and I need that bad! So, I'm back to wearing my tennis shoes all the time!
I just got back from running a few errands - I was @ Wal-mart looking @ in the pharmacy area, when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned expecting to see someone I knew, but no. It was an old lady that asked, "Did you get burned"? So I had to explain the whole avm thing. She didn't say much afterwards. I really DO NOT like to be approached like that. At least there are times after an experience like that the person will say something like, "well we'll keep you in our prayers" or "Ill pray for you". I just wish everyone would keep their curiosity in check!
Well, got lots to do around the house! Here is an old photo that Celia found - I'm guessing we're in our early 20's! Funny, huh?
Love to all!

Early morning bleed
Sunday, February 15, 2009
Good Morning Everyone!
How are you? Unfortunately, I had a minor bleed in the very early hours of the morning! Mark had worked a 13 hour day yesterday, came home and changed out my dressing. Everything was fine, we went to sleep late - but apparently, it was just one of those spontaneous bleeds! I seem to always feel the blood on my neck before it reaches my moisture sensor! It was coming from the top area of the wound on my face. So off the dressing comes and got pressure on there, and then got some surgicel to make sure the bleeding stopped! Had to clean myself up, take the pillowcase off my pillow and soak that, my nightgown and the towel I used to clean myself up! Sigh. Mark then redressed the wound and off to bed again!
That totally throws our morning off - the only reason I got up @ 9:00 a.m., was because I didn't want to get further behind on my schedule of meds! I wonder if Dr. Larkin (wound care doctor) will read this entry. She does check in on my blog - she says my bleeds (when they occur in her office) are aging her!
Which reminds me - on Friday, I had a little setback on my emotional well being because of my avm. I was having lunch w/Mark and it's hard for me to eat, as I can only open my mouth so far right now. I remembered Dr. Zane ( ENT ) mentioned something about my having a hard time opening my mouth and I had told him that was happening already. I couldn't remember all he told me, so I put a call in to his office to get some answers. I was fearing the worst and thought the only remedy would be breaking my jaw and resetting it - yikes! Dr. Zane's office has an automated menu where you can leave your message and someone will get back to you. I was lucky enough to get a live person ( I think it might have been the office manager) and she listened to my concerns and said she or Dr. Zane would get back to me!
A little later my cell phone rings and it's Dr. Zane! He explained everything to me all over again and eased my concerns! He assured me my jaw would not have to be broken and reset. I should be back to "normal" in time! We talked about our pets, as we both have Brussels - his family has several! wow! That would be my dream! I can't imagine ever having any other type of dog now! Anyway - I just have to say how incredible I think Dr. Zane is! If you are in search of an ENT in the Corpus Christi area - he's your guy! Very knowledgeable - up on the latest and great rapport with his patients! Thank you Dr. Zane! He reads my blog, so I want to emphasize how awesome he is! His staff is great too! I'll see y'all on the 26th!
Thanks to all for your continued support!

More Wound Care Adventures!
Wednesday, February 11, 2009
Hi! Here I am again so soon after I just blogged! I just wanted to go over my experience yesterday with you!
Went to wound care and Dr. Larkin started removing my dressing. She got to where the dressing was stuck on my skin and decided to ask Noel to come in for back up. Noel ended up taking the rest of the dressing off and then started cleaning up the wound. I had told Noel about how Dr. Zane had to cauterize the one area in my ear - and sure enough, when Noel was cleaning that same area .... it started bleeding! Right away I felt that blood go in my ear! Noel ended up having to put some pressure on the inside of my ear where the bleeding was coming from right inside my ear - ouch! Then Noel had to get some surgicel and put it on my ear to make sure that bleeding stopped! Gosh I'm tired of having these bleeds! I was @ wound care several hours before being able to get back to work! One of my co-workers noticed that I had blood on the back of my polo shirt - so I pulled out the extra shirt I carry in my tote bag and changed. That was my day! I just can't imagine the day all of this will be over with! I want this wound to heal already!
Wish me luck - I have wound care again tomorrow! Dr. Larkin said as long as I don't have a fever and continue to look well, then we can just do the wound care once a week! She knows that Mark takes great care of me and is excellent @ wound care, so she trusts we'll be going in the right direction! At least w/Dr. Larkin and Noel debriding my wound once a week, we should be in good shape!
Hi again!
Today is Wednesday and I went to wound care today w/absolutely NO BLEEDS! Noel removed the dressing, cleaned the area a bit and redressed it! Voila! Dr. Larkin was there and told me how the wound had already gotten smaller by reading me the first measurements she took of my wound when I first started and the size it is today! Mom had picked me up @ work and drove me to wound care, so I'm glad she was there to hear the good news! Here's hoping that this darned wound will close up soon! Dr. Larkin again commented on what a great job Mark had been doing w/the wound care all this time! Mark has been very patient with this patient! Right now Mark and Hanz are off for a walk - I've got a bum knee right now that isn't allowing me to tag along, darn!
Love to all!

Wound Care Adventures!
Sunday, February 8, 2009
Hi Everybody!
Hoping all of you are doing well these days! I just had to go over my last entry to figure out where I left off! If I don't blog when these things happen, I'll forget and who has time to blog during the week? Not me!
So I'm generalizing when I say that last week Monday during wound care - as Dr. Larkin was removing the dressing on my facial wound, I had a bleed. She and the nurse that was helping caught it right away and put pressure on there until we could get the surgicel! So she continues on with removing the old dressing she had been working on, and I have another bleed! Yikes! More surgicel! Managed to get the wound area cleaned and redressed. Dr. Larkin asked about my next appt. w/Dr. Zane (ENT) and got it moved up a week for me! We needed him to get my ear cleaned up from drainage and scabbing.
Anyway, went back to wound care on Wednesday and this time my favorite RN, Noel was helping Dr. Larkin remove my dressing. Would you believe I had another bleed? This time from my ear. Got some surgicel put on that area - it was along the outside lower edge of my ear. I used to leave work @ 4pm to make a 4:30 wound care appt. - and they would be done about 6pm and I'd head home! Now, since I've had these bleeds, Dr. Larkin wants to make sure there is always a doctor around, so she's moved my appts. to 11am - that means I have to leave work @ 10:30 am to make that appt. and am lucky to get back to work by 1pm or 1:30pm! I hate to miss that much work, but there is no way around it! I am fortunate that my supervisor Mr. Rios is being very understanding and working with me by letting me go to these appts. and letting me work through my lunch hour to make up some time!
Celia voluteered to come with me on my Friday wound care appt. and I'm so glad she did! It makes a big difference having someone there with you for support! I introduced her to some of my favorite peeps there - Eric, that takes my vitals, Carol is an RN and has redressed my wound. She told Celia, "We love your sister here"! I was fortunate enough to have Noel be the RN to take care of me for Fridays visit. As he was changing my dressing, he had looked away to get something he needed off the medical tray and I had a bleed. Fortunately, it was not arterial, it was from a vein, so it was flowing, but not shooting out! Not a problem and Noel remained completely calm! Celia wanted to give him a standing ovation when Noel finished redressing my wound, for the outstanding job he did! Whew! We were happy - it was finally the weekend!
Saturday was my mom Mary's 74th Birthday! (See photo) Hanz was bathed, so he could smell all nice and sweet for Grandma! Oh we had so much fun! Celia picked up some BBQ for everyone and we all met @ moms to celebrate! Hadn't seen my nephew Mark in a while, so it was great seeing him! I was worried about him bringing his dog, Hula - thinking she would trample over my little Hanz! No, soon as Hula was brought in to moms back yard, Hanz completely took over chasing Hula all over the yard! They were hilarious! Hanz doesn't realize he is a little dog, and had the best time playing with Hula! We all ate and had Key Lime Pie for dessert from Red Lobster! We all played Mexican Train and guess who won? ME!
Early this morning, about 7am and we were still in bed, I felt my neck thinking I was bleeding. I turned my bedside lamp on, yup! I woke Mark up and headed to the kitchen sink to removed my dressing from my face to figure out where I was bleeding from! It was the wound on my face - it was arterial, but it was a thin stream of blood shooting out - not like that time that I had so much coming out! Ugh! We were not happy having to get up so early and to be woken up like that! It was hard finding the exact area to put pressure to control the bleeding. Mark had to get my pillow cases (the regular one, the allergen cover one, plus the one that also covers the pillow because it's one of those contured egg crate pillows) and the twin size allergen cover I have over all my pillows (because there are 2 or 3 big pillows we stack to get me to the right angle and height for me to sleep). All of those had to go in the wash.
We waited a while after getting the bleeding under control to redress the wound. After we did, we lay down for a much, much needed nap! I slept almost 5 hours! I needed that badly! I used to always try and make time for a nap on Sundays to recharge my battery before our week started! Some of my meds make me so drowsy too! Since we've gotten Prince Hanz - our naps have pretty much gone out the window! Hanz is just too cute and I hate leaving him alone for too long, so I deprive myself of that nap. Oh well. I keep hoping that one of these days when he is completely potty trained, that we can bring him into the bedroom sometimes and maybe he can take a nap with us! Mark won't have any part of that though, so it isn't looking like Hanz and I will nap together.
For all of you that always say I'm so brave and strong to handle all of this I'm going through - take a good look at my mother. She is the pillar of strength that raised us on her own and many a time when life was not good ... she held her head up and kept on going! I have learned from her example and do the best I can and I have all of you helping me as well! I have terrific co-workers, (some that don't even work in my department!) that take the time to ask how I am and really seem interested in hearing about it! So many of your prayers are helping me through this rough time! I ran into little Jackie Hallmark @ Spohn when I was done w/my wound care on Friday. She gave me a big hug and told me I was in her prayers. Even some of the clerks @ our local grocery store, have taken the time to read my blog and post a comment!
I look forward to hearing from Shalon soon - she just got back yesterday from an embolization in CO! Check out her blog in the next few days to hear about her trip! Got a nice e-mail from Jody - Arie's mom saying how much she enjoys my blog! Had a co-worker tell me not long ago, that in the ten years she's known me, I was always so private - why the blog now w/photos and a lot of personal things? I told her I wanted other AVM patients to be able to read it and know they are not alone out there. Plus, I also wanted people who don't know what all an AVM entails, to be able to understand what Mark and I have to deal with on a daily basis! This has brought our entire family even closer. Like I've said before - my sister and I didn't grow up being best friends - but she has really come through for me during this difficult time! She is strong for me to lean on and helps us in so many ways! Right now she has a lot to deal with - her mother-in-law is very ill and in the hospital in Houston, so Celia is concerned for her husband so much right now! Plus of course her kids - one away in college and her other son here in town.
My in-laws always keep in close communication, as does my brother-in-law Jim and his wife Shelley - thank you! We'll try and get together soon! Hard to come up w/a time when one of us isn't working, or that I'm not in pain or bleeding. Ugh!
Oh! Before I forget - I want to send a big shout out to Dr. Zane!!! I had an appt. w/him on Thursday @ 1pm. Well, right before going out there, I was @ work and I picked inside my left ear! I could feel what I thought was a scab or maybe some of the dressing that had hardened. I picked it and here comes the blood! Right away I could feel my ear fill up w/blood! I didn't know exactly where to put pressure on there to stop the bleeding! I wondered if the surgicel that had been put on my ear Wednesday had come off, or was it bleeding where I picked it or what? I had a mirror on my bulletin board that I was looking into and finally called out to my co-worker Kathy that had her back to me eating her lunch. She got up and got me more napkins so I could put them up to my ear where I was still bleeding. Got my cell phone from my pants pocket and called Mark. Told him what was going on in case I needed him to come help! Told him to wait, that I would try and stop the bleeding on my own first. Called to Wound Care, and I asked Dr. Larkin whether I could come in for them to redress the area! She said I would not be turned away if I showed up - but she would rather I go to the ER or to see Dr. Zane! Meanwhile, I'm still bleeding - but finally got it to stop! Went on to see Dr. Zane and he got my ear all cleaned up from prior drainage and got rid of some of the scabbing on that little "flap" above the earlobe! I could see everything he was doing on a screen where I watched as Dr. Zane also got rid of some old, dead tissue still in my ear. He started some bleeding @ one point, but got that cauterized (OUCH!!) and it stopped! Cleaned out my t-tube that was still in there and really did some great debriding! He is awesome! I'm just glad nothing he saw or did freaked him out! I had been trying to cheer myself up earlier by showing one of his nurses/techs a photo of our little Hanz, and she said Dr. Zane had a puppy like ours too! She told me to make sure I asked Dr. Zane about it and sure enough! He and his wife have a 3 year old female Brussels Griffon! He told me to come over to another area, where he had several photos of her on a bulletin board. One was of her w/her hind feet on a chair and her front paws on the table and she was looking @ the camera and wearing a pink party hat! She was just precious! Glad to know we won't be the only ones spoiling our puppy! That photo was taken on her 3rd birthday! Maybe out pets can have a play date some time! That little Hanz is such a doll - he is exactly what I've needed to get through these difficult times!
Again, thank you everyone for all your love and support! I'll keep updating my blog and filling y'all in on the latest!

Reminder - Digital Publishing Suite (DPS) will End of Life on August 31st, 2019.
by Scott Dreier
Table of contents
11 June 2014
Prerequisite knowledge
This article assumes knowledge of Salesforce Automation, AJAX transactions and the Adobe DPS Library and Store API.
User level: Intermediate
Required Adobe products (retail)
Additional required other products (third-party/labs/open source)
New features which are core to this integration are as follows:
- Native OAUth2.0 authentication – the standard for Salesforce authentication
- Externalization of Adobe Analytics tracking - previously only available within Adobe Analytics or the DPS Analytics Dashboard.
While this article assumes Salesforce, any service requiring OAuth2.0 would be able to leverage these capabilities.
To learn more about OAuth2.0, please refer these articles:
- Wikipedia Overview: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth
- SFDC authentication: http://help.salesforce.com/apex/HTViewHelpDoc?id=remoteaccess_oauth_user_agent_flow.htm&language=en_US
From a DPS application, a sales representatives can now authenticate themselves (using OAuth2.0) into their company's SFDC account; download/synchronize any needed data records (e.g. Contacts, Opportunities, etc.), and record folio usage events back into the same SFDC account. Doing this enables sales representatives and their management to track which folio content (articles, pages and overlays) have been shown to which specific customers or contacts, and to uncover best practices across the entire sales force.
While authentication and data synchronization can only happen when the device has a valid internet connection, the DPS API analytics tracking API does have a mode to record the events while offline. When offline, the data is recorded and is then available for uploading once the device is online.
Two new API objects have been added to the Library and Store SDK API. These are explained below.
This API manages the Authorization, Renewal and Revocation of access rights to the SFDC account. It is a direct device to SFDC server implementation and no 3rd party web server is required. It uses the "User-Agent" authentication flow outlined in this SFDC document.
This API manages the collection and recording of Folio interaction events. Generally, this is the same raw data that is reported into Adobe Analytics and the DPS Analytics Dashboard tools. It contains methods to start/stop the recording of data (i.e. needed when offline) as well as methods and events for collecting the data as it is recorded.
Within your SFDC Setup Dashboard, you need to create a new Connected Application. We will connect this application to your DPS application via the DPS Application's URLScheme. Likewise, we will also need to connect the DPS Application to the Salesforce app via the 'Consumer Key'.
The URLScheme is unique to your application and is specified within DPS App Builder when configuring. 'Consumer Key' is unique to Salesforce and uniquely identifies your connected application. In the examples below we refer to this as 'clientId'.
Figure 1: Creating a new Connected Application in the Salesforce.com Setup Dashboard
You will also need to define a New Custom Object in Saleforce named 'FolioEvent'. This object will receive the Folio Interactivity event data.
The following examples assume that you have a list of opportunities (potential or existing customer names) that are associated with an 'account'. We will be retrieving the list of opportunities for a given account and then storing Folio Interaction events that reference the opportunity. This is only an assumption and you can modify the snippets to your own personal requirements.
This section describes how to authorize, renew and revoke access to an SFDC account. You will need your own SFDC account to set this up.
OAuth Authentication works by asking SFDC to collect and validate the users credentials. The 'ask' is by means of a redirect URI and clientId. The clientId identifies which (of the millions) SFDC application the user wants to connect to and the redirect URI specifies where SFDC will send the authenticated user. The actual credentials are collected and validated by SFDC. Your DPS Application will never see them and has no access to them.
The general approach to setting up the OAuth process is to set up callback listeners and start the process via a HTML container such as provided by the DialogService class. The viewer internals (Obj-C code) will handle success/failure and report back to your JavaScript via callback events.
You will populate the HTML container with the following URL:
<path_to_your_sfdc>is the path where you would log in to your Salesforce instance. For production applications, this should be https://login.salesforce.com, but will be different for sandboxed development applications.
<your_client_id>is the encoded Consumer Key provided by SFDC when you created your connected application. Be sure to use
encodeURIComponentto properly encode this as a URL parameter.
<your_redirect_uri>is the exact same redirect URI you defined when you created your connected application within SFDC. It should contain the URLScheme of your DPS iOS application (e.g. 'myapp://oauth').
Note: Use a real and unique URLScheme. Otherwise, every SFDC connected DPS app will be labeled "myapp".
The following example defines a data object to hold our client specific settings. It then defines two callbacks that will be used when the OAuthRedirectService is started. The callback
successCB is called to initiate the login sequence. The callback
authCB is called when the authentication process is complete. Once complete, the OAuthRedirectService object will contain a populated
oauthData object. The data within this object is used to revoke and renew a client authentication.
A simple
error helper function is also called. The details of this implementation are left to your imagination.
var oauthConfig = {
authURL : "https://login.salesforce.com",
redirectURL : "myapp://oauth",
clientId : "3MVG9dPGzpc3kWydtN1fyM0sPLLckz2fjkGCr2sxzHpBsiEO0yOKJZIeeKwFJ05zWtE"
// Initialize the OAuthRedirectService with our client data
try {
var oauth = {
authURL : oauthConfig.authURL,
clientId : oauthConfig.clientId,
redirectURI : oauthConfig.redirectURL
function() {}, // Success callback
function() {}; // Error callback
} catch (error) {
function oasAuthorize() {
function successCB() {
var loginUrl = oauthConfig.authURL + '/services/oauth2/authorize';
loginUrl += "?display=touch&response_type=token&state=validation";
loginUrl += "&client_id=" +encodeURIComponent(oauthConfig.clientId);
loginUrl += "&redirect_uri=" +adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.redirectURI;
function authCB(response) {
if (response.hasOwnProperty("timeout")) {
console.log("the authentication request timed out");
if (response.hasOwnProperty("error")) {
console.log("the authentication server returned error");
} else {
// the authentication server returned success
console.log("authentication successful");
try {
adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.startListening(authCB, successCB, error);
} catch (error) { error(error); }
Renew Authorization Token
var oauthData = adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.oauthData;
if (oauthData === undefined || oauthData === null) {
// Not initialized…
console.log("Auth session not initialized! Call initAuthData()"
else {
var refreshData = "grant_type=refresh_token";
refreshData += "&client_id=" + oauthConfig.clientId;
refreshData += "&refresh_token=" + encodeURIComponent(oauthData.refresh_token);
$.ajax({ url: oauthConfig.authURL + '/services/oauth2/token',
headers: {'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + oauthData.refreshToken},
type: 'POST',
data: refreshData,
success: function (data, status, xhr) {
// Reset oauthData in native storage.
try {
function() { console.log('success: token refreshed');},
} catch (error) { error(error); }
error: function (xhr, status, error) {
console.log("A server error occured");
Revoke Current Authorization Token
var oauthData = adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.oauthData;
if (oauthData === undefined || oauthData === null) {
// Not initialized…
console.log("Auth session not initialized! Call initAuthData()"
var revokeUrl = oauthData.instance_url + '/services/oauth2/revoke';
var revokeData = "token=" + encodeURIComponent(oauthData.refresh_token);
url: revokeUrl,
type: 'POST',
cache: false,
data: revokeData,
contentType: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
success: function (data, status, xhr) {
// Reset refreshToken and access_token in native storage.
try {
adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.resetAuthData( resetSuccessCB, error);
} catch (error) { error(error); }
Any data can be uploaded at any time to your SFDC account by adding the
Authorization header to the AJAX transactions.
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + <oauth_token>
In order to collect folio interaction events, you must first tell the viewer to start recording these events. This enables buffering and allows the events to be collected independent of internet connectivity. By default all events will be recorded, but you can specify an array of event names to filter the event capture with.
When connected, the following outlines the process.
- Enable recording
- Interact with folio
- Fetch events from the viewer using the API
- Upload these events to your SFDC account, as appropriate.
- Delete these events
- Repeat steps 2 through 5 as needed.
- Stop recording.
The only difference for
off-line would be to postpone the fetch, upload and delete steps until connectivity is restored.
Start Recording
When starting recording, you need to pass in a configuration object indicating whether you want native UI notification of errors AND the list of events of interest. A null list of events indicates you want to receive all.
recording_id // A user generated unique string
, {enableErrorUIAlert:false, eventsFilter:events_filter} // Configuration
, fas_error_handler) ; // Reference to error handler
Stop Recording
Retrieve Recorded Events
recording_id // A user generated unique string
, {enableErrorUIAlert:false, eventsFilter:events_filter} // Configuration
, fas_error_handler) ; // Reference to error handler
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + <oauth_token>
The following will upload every event recorded into a custom SFDC object
FolioEvent__c. SFDC Objects with the
__c extension are user created, custom objects.
// Ensure that attributes also appear as custom
for (var attr in folioEvent) {
if (folioEvent.hasOwnProperty(attr)) {
folioEvent[attr + "__c"] = folioEvent[attr];
delete folioEvent[attr];
// Tag the event to our 'Opportunity'. This is a reference so the event can // be properly associated within SFDC
folioEvent.opportunityId__c = opportunityId;
var str = JSON.stringify(folioEvent);
var oauthData = adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.oauthData;
if (oauthData && oauthData.access_token) {
type: 'POST',
url: oauthData.instance_url + '/services/data/v20.0/sobjects/FolioEvent__c/',
data: str,
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
contentType: 'application/json',
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + oauthData.access_token
success: function (data, status, xhr) {
console.log('successfully uploaded event');
error: function (xhr, status, error) {
console.log("A server error occured");
Data is retrieved from SFDC via AJAX calls constructed with custom Authorization header.
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + <oauth_token>
Otherwise, data is retrieved as with any other AJAX call. SFDC allows a DB Query structure in the calls so you can dynamically query data.
oauthData.instance_url + '/services/data/v20.0/query?q=SELECT+name,id+from+Opportunity+where+AccountId=\'foobar\'+order+by+name+asc'
Fetching a list of Opportunities for a specific Account
var oauthData = adobeDPS.oauthRedirectService.oauthData;
if (oauthData && oauthData.access_token) {
url: oauthData.instance_url + '/services/data/v20.0/query?q=SELECT+name,id+from+Opportunity+where+AccountId=\foobar\'+order+by+name+asc',
cache: false,
headers: {
'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + oauthData.access_token
success: function (data, status, xhr) {
for (var i = 0, count = data.records.length; i < count; ++i) {
record = data.records[i];
console.log(record.Id + ',' + record.Name);
error: function (xhr, status, error) {
// Do something
Assuming your SFDC account contains an Opportunities Object, the above will print out all of the Opportunity records for the account

Superman is super sad you guys
Have you heard about Superman? He's like, totally sad these days. I guess that whole crab fisherman thing didn't work out because he's moping around, sporting a sadness beard. Superman's beard is the saddest beard that has ever bearded. It's practically having its own existential crisis. He's sad since everybody hates him because of that one time when he saved a bunch of children from drowning in a school bus accident. Is that why he ran off to become a crab fisherman? That part still doesn't make sense. And OMG, did his dad just tell Superman he should have let those kids drown? No wonder he grew up and got arrested. His dad told him it's okay to let bus loads of kids die. He probably grew a whole new prison-themed sadness beard because of it.
The second trailer for Zack Snyder's Superman reboot, Man of Steel, came out yesterday and this time it features less crab fishing and more sadness beards and billowy capes. There's a really great shot of Superman's cape billowing as he walks across the ice—if nothing else, this will be a pretty movie to look at. The pretty is aided by Henry Cavill, who looks great as Superman, even with the sadness beard. He sounds great, too, all earnest and determined and melancholy.
And boy is Superman ever sad. The movie could just as easily be called Man of Sadness. I suppose this is how they've chosen to overcome the inherent boringness of the character—introduce introspective angst. In and of itself, that's not a bad idea, but coming on the heels of The Dark Knight Rises, he's just another self-loathing superhero. Produced by Christopher Nolan and written by Nolan's Batman collaborator David Goyer, Man of Steel reeks of Gotham. By June of next year, when the movie comes out, I probably won't care but right now it's overkill.
This trailer also gives us a good look at all the key characters in the movie, from Russell Crowe as Superman's alien dad (looking very Gladiator-y, as Lainey noted) to Diane Lane as his adopted mother, Michael Shannon as bad guy General Zod, Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Kevin Costner as Earth-dad, who thinks it's okay to let people die if it's somehow advantageous for Superman. There's a lot of talent involved, so the movie should be at least halfway decent.
I can't get one hundred percent behind Man on Steel, though. Partly that's down to Superman being boring and without serious conflict no matter how big of a sadness beard he grows, but it's mostly due to my fear of director Snyder. Sure he can deliver a beautiful image, but Sucker Punch was straight-up trash and Watchmen was weighed down by its own excess. Having Snyder as a director really isn't a guarantee of anything. As solid as this trailer is—and it's pretty solid—and as much as the fanboys are flipping out, I can't help but remember that everyone loved Sucker Punch after seeing the trailer, too. This trailer makes me cautiously optimistic for Man of Steel but I'm not convinced that it's a proper good movie and not more Zack Snyder smoke and mirrors.
I still can't believe Superman's dad said it was okay to let a bus full of children die. What a dick.

What a delicious sweet and savory combination! Who knew watermelon and feta paired so well together! When I first saw this combination on one of the food competition shows, I thought it sounded and looked strange. I didn't get it. But I also didn't get the sweet and savory combination back then either. And mind you, this was many, many years ago before I became a glutton for food. We've been buying seedless watermelons at the farmer's market for the last month, and it finally dawned on me to try this salad tonight! OH EM GEE, why did we not try this salad sooner?!
Watermelon and Feta Salad
1 (2 to 3 pound) seedless watermelon, rind removed
1 large block of feta
2 cups good quality balsamic vinegar
Extra virgin olive oil
Fresh cracked black pepper
1 bunch fresh basil leaves
Special equipment: 2.5 inch cake ring
Place the vinegar in a heavy-bottomed, non-reactive pot. Heat on low, so that you have a light simmer. Reduce until syrupy, or to desired consistency, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Be careful not to burn the balsamic reduction. Once cooled, store at room temperature.
Using the 2.5 inch cake ring, cut out watermelon rounds and cut it in half horizontally. Set aside.
Depending on the size of your feta block, cut into 3/4-inch thick layers. Using the 2.5 inch cake ring, cut out feta rounds. Set aside.
Arrange the salad with the watermelon slices on the bottom, followed with the feta rounds, and then two fresh basil leaves. Repeat until all the watermelon and feta rounds have been used. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and balsamic reduction, and finish with fresh cracked black pepper.

Woman Quits Job Via Dry Erase Board, Burns Bridges for a Lifetime
Sometimes, two weeks notice is just too classy.
This woman, identified as Jenny, decided to quit her job through a series of messages on a dry erase board she had photographed. It's one of the more creative ways to leave a job we've seen.
She airs out her grievances working for Spencer, but he comes right back with some issues of his own, which you can see for yourself after scrolling through her announcement.
While you may think this marks the beginning of a very ugly legal battle between the two, don't bet on it -- it turns out this whole matter is not what it seems.You know, Jimmy Kimmel couldn't have done it any better himself.

osmica wrote:Hi Destiny,
first of all, it is gald to text with you. I sent you an email few days ago (about compass). No replay from you. Did you recive it?
Thank you for advise about 3D software. Lightwave is something new to me...
But in fact, I don't have time now to learn 3D drawing. I would like a lot to learn that in future and I would than take the best like Maya or Cinema 4D.
At the moment I would like to find people that already know to make nice 3D and cooperate with them. What I don't know is next:
1) Does that software already have integrated a solution to create virtual tours? Or they need to use something like Panotour Pro?
2) Once a 3D model of an apartment or house is created with that software, how to make spherical panos to use with Panotour Pro? Is it possible? It would need a function to determine a point of view for create a spherical pano from that point. I don't know how they do that. I am just exploring how they do that... Do you know more about?
3) I know what is CAD. But architects always use it for create projects. For 3D it used other software. But every new building have a 2D drawing made in CAD. And it can help to create a 3D model, expecialy if it is possible to import the DWG file in that other software. Maybe Maya have the best functions for that...same company (Autodesk).
BTW, I have ASUS G73 SW (ROG-Republic Of Gamers) with i7 quad core, 16 GB RAM DDR5, SSD Corsair Force GT series + HDD Sata3 750 GB, Graphic card nVidia GeForce 1.5 GB...so more than enough for all that software

Destiny wrote:I am still a bit lost to what you are trying to do and why.. It doesn't make sense to go with this approach..
mediavets wrote:What his approach would need if a virtual robotic panohead/camera system.
osmica wrote:Sorry, this links are correct. Those are virtual tours created from 3d model not photos of reality. So to do that with PTP, I need that the creators of some 3D models give me sphere panos or cubic faces. I found it can be done with 3D max but I repeat people, I don't intend to learn to do that myself. There are already people who knows that and already creating 3D models for real estate investors. If they create with their software sphere panos or cube faces of the same 3D model, I can make a tour with that and investors can advertise it on my site. I will just create tours, not the 3D model.
At the moment investors get only images of the 3D model and if they want anything else, they need to have a web site at least. As 3D software have the option to create full sphere panos of the models, why not use it to create tours with PTP.
And can anybody tell me what software I can use to easy create maps like this used in the tours. I don't need so much details, it can be simpler also. I want just to easy vreate maps to integrate in m tours. Sometimes I have nice pdf maps from the architect and I can use them with just a little retouch in PS. SOmetimes I need to create it myself.
osmica wrote:And that is my only interest, to create virtual tours from the cube faces that the investors will give me from their 3D model. And I can display them on my classified. They will be very happy.

Summit County sees decline in pine beetle epidemic
summit daily news
The spread of the mountain pine beetle epidemic, which has swept through forests across Colorado since 1996, is slowing significantly, according to the state's recently released annual aerial forest health survey.
The U.S. Forest Service and Colorado State Forest Service reported that the epidemic has expanded by 31,000 acres in 2012, as compared to the 140,000-acre increase in 2011.
"Generally speaking, the mountain pine beetle epidemic in Summit County is definitely declined," said Cary Green, U.S. Forest Service timber management assistant for the White River National Forest eastern zone. "We haven't seen any widespread damage since 2009/2010. I think Summit County's clear in that."
Though the epidemic is declining, Green said that it doesn't mean the beetles are gone completely. It will be possible for pockets of trees to be affected in the future.
"They're always going to be in the ecosystem," he added.
Nearly 3.4 million acres in Colorado have been infested by the mountain pine beetle since the initial outbreak in 1996. Most mature lodgepole pine trees have now been depleted within the initial epidemic area.
Mountain pine beetles aren't the only insect causing havoc on Colorado's trees, however. While the pine beetles seem to be in decline, the recent report stated that the spruce beetle outbreak has started to expand. Nearly 1 million acres have been affected since 1996, including 183,000 additional acres detected in 2012.
The majority of the spruce beetle devastation has occurred in southern Colorado in the San Juan and Rio Grande national forests. Though spruce beetles have shown up in Summit County, Green said they do not appear to be in very large numbers.
Unlike mountain pine beetles, which attack standing trees, spruce beetles prefer fallen trees, where they build up their population before attacking nearby weaker trees. Similar to mountain pine beetle, the increase in spruce beetle activity is due to factors that increase tree stress, including densely stocked stands, ongoing drought conditions and warmer winters.
According to Green, spruce beetle infestation is harder to spot, because the needles simply fall off rather than change color as with the mountain pine beetle.
Green said that the main focus right now is to deal with the remnants of the beetle kill as well as increase the health of the forest to make it less susceptible to future beetle attacks, of any kind.
"(We're) trying to get most of the dead trees out where we can, trying to utilize the trees in some sort of product so they don't go to waste," Green said. "And regenerating the next future forest is obviously the goal as well."
This will come in the form of planting trees in areas of high use, such as recreation areas. In other parts, Green said, lodgepole trees will start to come back on their own, particularly younger trees that survived the beetle epidemic and are therefore much less likely to succumb to beetles i

Man arrested for driving with dog tied to car
HIGHLANDS, NJ (WPIX) — A New Jersey man was charged with animal cruelty after he drove down a street with his dog tied to his car.
Officer Michael Carlino spotted the one-year-old Chihuahua mix, named Roxy, being dragged behind the Toyota near Miller Street and Route 36 in Middletown.
Officer Carlino was able to pull the driver, 49-year-old Guastamacchia, over.
Guastamacchia claimed he let the dog outside the car to relieve herself while he finished a phone conversation with a friend. The man said he "forgot" the dog was still tied outside the car when he drove off.
"The actions of the alert officer no doubt saved the dog's life," said Victor "Buddy" Amato, the Monmouth County SPCA's chief law enforcement officer.
Guastamacchia was arrested but has since been released with a summons to appear in court.
Roxy is being treated at a local animal hospital for her injuries.

Bullying is a serious problem in society today. Always has been, most people would say.
The Carson City Council has decided to do something about it, and gave initial approval last week to an ordinance that would criminalize bullying and make children as young as 5 years old subject to misdemeanor charges. The ordinance is up for final consideration May 20.
Under the proposed law, any child 5 to 18 who makes another person feel "terrorized, frightened, intimidated, threatened, harassed or molested (in a way that) serves no legitimate purpose" would be ticketed with an infraction and fined for a first or second offense, and could face a criminal misdemeanor charge for a third offense.
Would you like to see your child branded a three-time loser with a rap sheet at the age of 5? Then you'd better not let him or her push any other kids around in Carson if this law gets final approval.
Our Question of the Week: Should bullying be criminalized?
Mike Gipson, the Carson councilman who introduced the ordinance and wants to make his city "bully-free," cites the sad case of a high school student in Compton who had been bullied since middle school and committed suicide in a school restroom. There are equally sad cases of suicides after online bullying.
The Centers for Disease Control has reported that bullying can result in physical injury, social and emotional distress, increased depression, anxiety, problems at school and trouble sleeping. Twenty percent of high school students said they had been bullied at school in the previous year in a 2011 CDC study.
But some people say that standing up to a bully is a rite of passage, especially for boys, and that city government should stay out of it.
Besides, do the Los Angeles sheriff's deputies who police Carson have so much time on their hands that they can monitor the interactions of kindergartners? Is the L.A. county district attorney going to press charges against a first-grader?
