Cammy Camera Monitoring Software Review with the D-Link DCS-930L (Page 2)
Using the Cammy software
I set up my Cammy in my office to play around with it, connecting it directly to my Netgear router through an Ethernet port. I then used my smartphone to access it through Wi-Fi. The resolution on the Cammy is only 640x480 resolution, which doesn't look super crisp, but it does the job.
Getting it setup, something we walked you through above, was incredibly simple. This is something Cammy is pushing here - the super easy setup procedure. The last thing you need is some 400-step installation, where things get confusing with IP addresses, ports, passwords, and all sorts of configuration where things get messy. Cammy has simplified all of this with a beautiful, simple to use UI on both iOS and Android devices.
Once you're connected, you can dive right into the Cammy software, which doesn't give you many options to play around with. As you can see in the above shot, we have just a few parts of the menu that we can really do things with. My Cameras lets you access the cameras that you have attached into the Cammy software, where you can then tap Add Camera that will allow you to, well, add a camera to Cammy.
Next, we have Search Events, which lets you choose a specific frame of time to look at recorded footage. Introduction is what you saw above, which walked us through Cammy, Feedback and Sign Out are self-explanatory.
Diving into the My Cameras section, we can see in the shot on the left our camera. It records footage for you and lets you go through it at will. You can tap into any of the recordings, and then play through the frames recorded. On the right, is what you'll click into, where you can then fast-forward or rewind, and then play/pause the recording. You can also share the recording through various apps, so you could email it to yourself, or save it to your cloud service.
Cammy is incredibly easy to use, as you can see from our look at it today. Even the most novice user could get not only a single camera up and running within minutes, but multiple cameras could easily be set up within 10 minutes total. This is the beautiful part of Cammy: it is just super easy to use.
What's Hot
It's Free!!: Cammy is free. The D-Link camera supplied is what costs money, but the Cammy software is completely free from the iTunes and Play Stores. This makes it a great option for those who already own a camera and want to get their hands-on some easy-to-use camera software.
Smart Motion Detection: This is a great feature, as it means the camera isn't just sitting there 24/7 recording. It will only start recording when it detects motion. This makes it great for security, which would be its main purpose.
Very User Friendly: Cammy has made it as easy as possible to get any person, with or without technical experience, to get a camera setup with Cammy. I don't think there could be anything easier, apart from Cammy coming to your house and doing it for you.
What's Not
640x480 Video Recording: We are talking $32.99 here, so you can't really complain about the video quality for that price. This isn't Cammy's fault either, it's the D-Link camera it supplied. You could always hook up a better camera, and enjoy HD or higher resolutions, while still using the great Cammy software.
Final Thoughts
Remember, this isn't a review of the camera - but more of the software. The only negative thing I had to say about Cammy was the camera, but this is out of their control. The software itself is a good piece of kit considering the cheap price of the D-Link camera included. If you already have a camera at home, you can just download the Cammy software and away you go - completely, 100% free.
Cammy has something great here, some software that has an incredibly easy-to-use UI, and best of all: free. Who doesn't like free software, especially when they might have multiple cameras at home that they want to use? If you are one of these people, with cameras at home and no way to properly manage them on your smartphone, you probably need Cammy in your life.

Friday 19th April 2019 – Diary
Today, Friday the 19th of April, is the fourth week I have come out as a Trans Woman. My life as a woman has been great, other than last friday when I was robbed. I am loving my new clothes and the feeling that these bring to me. It is hard to explain how I am feeling everyday. But I do not have that dark cloud hanging over me that I had when I was in the 'closet'.
I am now starting to put make-up on and I am enjoying the self-care that I show myself. This 'mothering' care is enhancing the quality of my everyday life. Before I came out, I found looking after myself very difficult, actually if I am completely honest, it did not exist. It was a chore that I did not like doing. I did not respect myself and this increased my depression and the hate I had for myself.
My new love for myself has given me a new release of life. Everyday is a new start. I take pride in how I look. I am lucky to be able express myself in this way without judgement. In many countries and terrorities the way I express myself is not possible.
On Facebook, I am in contact with at least one person who is not able to express themselves. They want to be a woman, but born as a man, (this is known as M to F (MtoF)). This person is very depressed and they feel lost. I could not imagine how they are coping.
According to the Guardian newspaper's website there are sevent-two (72) countries that it is illegal to have or to be in a Gay relationship (2017). The article also states that there are forty-five (45) countries in which being in a lesbian relationships is also illegal.
The article further states "there were twenty (20) countries who decriminialised same sex relationships before the 1900's" (2017). This allowed same sex relationships. Britian only decriminalised it fifty (50) years ago.
The article shows a detailed map of the world where being in a gay reationship can be punished by death or inprisonment.

The Pit: Head towards the bell tower, and turn left on south road. Walk behind the Stone Center - you'll pass the UNC football player statue on your left. Go up the hill using either the stairs or ramps between the stadium and parking garage. Campus Health is at the top of the hill. For video directions, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ai72dLOOVP
Student Academic Services Building: When going towards towards the football stadium take a left behind Morrison Residence Hall, past the bike racks. A sidewalk will be on your right that heads into the woods, take that sidewalk (with the stadium on your right). Soon, Campus Health will be the building in front of and slightly to the left of you. For video directions, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yYunBHxRqA
Health Sciences Library: From the front of the Health Sciences Library, head toward Franklin St. on S. Columbia. After passing Bondurant Hall on the right, take Medical Drive also on your right. Follow Medical Drive around the bend and you will come to a small intersection. At this intersection, take a left. The path will dead-end into a building, take the door into the building. Following the hallway, taking a left when the hallway dead ends. You will then go through a set of double-doors, through another hallway, and through another set of double doors. This will put you on the second floor of the Campus Health building. For video directions, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqwLR6wBZYs
Off campus: Take Manning Drive. Turn towards the Emergency Department of UNC Hospitals onto Emergency Room Drive (also known as Hibbard Drive). Campus Health will be at the end of the drive on the left. It is a three story, red brick building with the lettering Campus Health between the second and third floors. Campus Health has 24 dedicated parking spots for patients and visitors. If you are driving, you will need a parking pass. Once you have parked, you will need to visit the first floor check-in desk in order to get a parking pass. The pass needs to be placed in a visible location on your car immediately. Once you have your parking pass and it has been placed on your car, you can proceed to check-in for your appointment. If you do not get a pass you run the risk of getting a ticket and/or being towed.

Traditional etiquette dictates that women sit with an erect posture and both legs together, keeping the skirt's hem low and undergarments out of sight. Maintaining this posture when in trousers also adds elegance. Additionally, there are ways of crossing your legs, appropriate for formal occasions, which effectively prevent wardrobe malfunctions. Practicing these postures will add an element of class while becoming seated at formal affairs and in day-to-day life.
Sitting With Traditional Posture
1Stand in front of your seat as close as you can. By starting out close to the chair, you will have less work to do and are much less likely to expose yourself or miss your mark and fall.
- At most formal functions, it is customary for a gentleman to help you be seated. He will pull out your chair, wait for you to stand in front of it, and then nudge the chair forward to touch the back of your legs. This is sometimes done by your date, a waiter, or another man seated nearby.
2Put your knees together. Make sure both your knees and most of your legs are lined up and squeezed next to each other. One leg should not be in front of the other. By sitting down with your legs together, you will keep your undergarments from showing, no matter how short your skirt may be.
3Ease down gently. Do not bend forward; make sure to keep your torso straight. Keeping your knees together, sit down smoothly by bending your knees. Your calves will naturally tilt forward, which is a position you will want to hold.
- Try not to use your hands for balance. Keep your arms either straight down or slightly bent at the elbow.
4Smooth your skirt under you. If you are wearing a skirt or dress, it may have become rumpled while you sat down. Sitting will also have raised its hemline. If you don't want your skirt looking rumpled or shorter than it actually is, smooth it down gently with your hands.
5Decide how to place your feet. You have two main options for your feet: flat on the ground or crossed at the ankles. If you are short enough that your feet don't touch the floor, be sure to go with the ankle-cross. When crossing your ankles, be sure to do so with your knees still together. There should be no space between your ankles.[1]
6Angle your legs. If your legs are long or you've chosen not to cross your ankles, you will likely need to angle your knees to either your left or right. Such placement will make you look less stiff and more feminine. You do not need to maintain this angle for the duration of the event. In fact, it is polite to shift your knees towards the person you are speaking to.
7Sit up straight. Do not lean back into your chair. For formal occasions, it's most appropriate to sit in the center of the seat with your back not in contact with the chair.[2] Likewise, do not lean forward and slouch in your chair.
8Place your hands in your lap. When not in use, keep your hands folded or holding a clutch. Rest them just above your thigh. However, if you are attending a formal dinner in France, be sure to place your hands on the table on either side of the plate instead. There, it is considered rude to place your hands underneath the table on your lap.
Sitting With Crossed Legs
1Ease into your chair with your knees together. Keep your torso straight without leaning forward. While you will eventually cross your legs, the act of sitting down is identical to the one used for maintaining traditional ladylike posture.
- Keep in mind that crossing your legs at the knee is much less modest than keeping your legs parallel. It will both emphasize your legs while raising your skirt's hemline.[3]
2Place your hands in your lap. Once you are seated, fold your hands and place them on your lap between your legs. Maintain this placement when your hands are not in use. This position will also weigh your skirt down, preventing you from flashing your undergarments while crossing your legs.
3Move your right leg to the left. Begin by raising your right thigh slightly. Then, place your right calf in front of your left. Be sure to keep your thighs together. Spreading your legs, even when adjusting in your seat, is traditionally considered unladylike. Also, even with your hands in your lap, spreading your legs runs the risk of momentarily exposing your underwear.
4Position your right calf over your left. Your right knee should now be directly on top of your left knee. Your calves should be tight together, forming a diagonal with your feet pointing towards either your right or your left.[4] You will not be able to have a straight up-and-down leg placement with both feet on the floor in this position.
5Maintain a straight line with both legs. Your right and left calves should remain as parallel and as closely lined up to each other as possible. Be sure that your legs remain firmly together while you sit. Keep your toes pointed downward.[5]
- Remember to always sit up with your torso straight.
6Switch legs gracefully if necessary. At some point while sitting, you may want to switch positions so that the opposite leg crosses over the other. This can be done if you are quick and graceful enough but should be avoided if you are wearing a particularly short skirt. Simply uncross your legs so that they are in the same position they were in right after you first sat down. Then, simply move the chosen leg over the other to return to a crossed position.
- Remember to make sure your hands are in your lap while uncrossing and recrossing your legs.
Community Q&A
QuestionHow can I sit in dresses that reach my feet?Community AnswerCross your feet at the ankles so that your shoe does not get caught in the dress.
QuestionIs it acceptable for a woman to sit with her knees pulled up when sitting on the ground?Community AnswerYes, as long you are careful not to show your underwear when wearing a dress or a skirt.
QuestionHow can I properly double cross my legs?Ashley ChanCommunity AnswerCross your right leg over your left leg at the knee. Try to cross your legs as much as possible so that your knees are pointing at the most opposite directions and your thighs firmly together without any gaps. From the side view, your right leg should appear slight behind your left leg. Next, tiptoe your left foot and curl your right foot around and over your left ankle just the way we normally do our ankle-cross. Make sure your right foot "pops out" to your right side and firmly hooked to your left ankle. From the front view, your legs looked clearly crossed at both the knee and the ankle.
QuestionHow can I sit with a long skirt?Community AnswerWhatever you wear, you can always sit cross-legged tightly at your knees. Proper locking of two knees is essential.
QuestionWould a princess follow these steps?Community AnswerYes, she most likely would since it's usually important for royals to come across as dignified.
QuestionWhat is the best way to sit like a lady if I am wearing a top and jeans?TamaraTop AnswererWhen you're wearing pants, you need to either cross your legs at the knees or sit with your knees together.
QuestionHow can I sit like a lady if I wear very short skirts?Racecar1Community AnswerYou sit the same way you would if you were wearing a long skirt: legs together and crossed at the ankles.
QuestionI am a male whose life dream is to sit with my legs crossed like a lady every time I sit in a chair, and I've always wanted to make out with a girl when we're both sitting with our legs crossed. How?Tom De BackerTop AnswererWomen's hips are placed slightly differently, which results in women walking differently and being able to cross their legs farther than most men. Women also tend to be more flexible. That said, there is no reason why a man could not cross his legs while sitting; with practice, you can reach a comfortable and relaxed position. Finally, there's no problem with kissing a girl in this position. With your legs crossed, your upper body still has most of the reach it does when you sit without your legs crossed.
QuestionAny other tips for a lady who wears very short skirts?Community AnswerAlways be conscious of how you've placed your legs. Realize that getting in and out of a car is going to be very tricky and learn how to to it with elegance and decorum. Consider adding tights or leggings if you are going into the cold weather or you're worried about wind. Always wear clean, proper knickers to cover everything in case of mishaps. Learn self-defense, both verbal and physical because some people are creeps. But most of all, own it.
QuestionDo women cross their right leg over left or left over right?Community AnswerIt depends on the woman and what they feel most comfortable with. The proper form for sitting would be for the woman's legs to be closed with just the ankles crossed, but it's entirely up to her.
How do I make out with someone sitting with their legs crossed?
- When are you about to stand up, pull the bottom hem of your skirt down to cover your legs. This will prevent you from exposing your underwear.
- Remember that, above all, you should avoid sitting with your legs spread, even when wearing trousers.[6]
- Keep in mind that these are just traditionally "ladylike" ways to sit and mostly apply to formal occasions. In everyday life, women can of course sit however they want.

In times when the cat has to tell students that "No, 9/11 was not the day that Barack Obama was elected president of the USA for the first time", a book like Hannah Moskowitz's Gone Gone Gone may serve as a perfect way to connect that (this) generation of teens with a past that they only know from the History Channel or from a old(er) relative musing about "Where they were when they heard about the Twin Towers" (getting the one and only Ringo the Cat, btw).
That being said, Gone Gone Gone is not about 9/11. It's also not really about the 2002 Beltway sniper attacks. Both of these events do provide the story with the perfect eerie-sounding atmosphere, an atmosphere of not really know what exactly is happening with the world you're living in. Instead, Gone Gone Gone is about two 15-year-old boys, Craig and Lio, who are trying to figure out what their place in the world is and what they mean to each other.
Gone Gone Gone is alternately told from Craig's and Lio's point of view. They first met online, because Craig is an ambassador for his school, the type of kid that shows new students around. Lio recently moved away from NYC to DC, where Craig lives. After sort-of-but-not-really breaking up with his ex-boyfriend Cory, Craig has totally lost himself in taking care of his 14 stray animals, animals that escape after a burglary at his house. So Craig has to deal with finding back his animals, but he's also trying to juggle the emotions of losing Cory (or not quite) after an event that is never made entirely clear and finding Lio (or not quite) and figuring out what Lio might mean to him. Lio, from his part, is also one messed up kid, even his therapist Adelle agrees… When he was 7, Lio and his twin brother Theo got leukemia. Lio survived. Theo died. Not only does he have to deal with being "a cancer survivor", there's also his fragmented family life to consider.
Rather than focusing her attention on an intricate plot, Moskowitz is the mistress of voice and characterization,… 2 characters to be more precise. She deftly uses the alternating point of view of Craig and Lio, giving both of them distinct voices. A criticism here could be that the other characters, such as Craig's parents, or Lio's sisters or Adelle, are not as fleshed out as they could have been. To Moskowitz's credit, it's definitely something that works here. Of the two the cat preferred Craig's voice, which was often very stream-of-consciousness-like, with Craig losing himself in his long even melodramatic sentences (not the negative kind of melodrama, though!). Even though Craig is 15, at times you get the impression he's a very young sort of 15 (or maybe that's just his almost OCD type of behavior concerning his animals), while at other times, he's clearly the voice of experience. Even then, it's obvious that it's a vulnerable sort of experience. Contradictory, yes, but flowing from Moskowitz's pen (or errr keyboard…) it sounds very convincing. Lio's voice, on the other hand, was often a lot whinier (despite his not talking) – an authorial choice, btw, that the cat can get behind, it just made it a lot harder to 'like' Lio the way the cat immediately connected with Craig as a voice and character.
Truth be told, I hadn't really expected it (there are so many "new" voices in YA-land), but Hannah Moskowitz's writing definitely has a freshness to it that shows talent, conviction and a heart for character. The cat loves authors with a heart for their characters. Writing a great and intricately plotted story is one thing, but if you manage to give a character a voice so unique and special and flawed and true, then it shows you're willing to go there as an author, and that is the hallmark of a true author.

Washed Out, M83, Girls, PacificUV, Dum Dum Girls & more
Tons of great new stuff this week. Dig in.
1. Burning God Little – Notes On Being Snowblind
Swinging track that puts a spring in your step.
2. Tahiti 80 – Defender
French electro poppers come back with a vengeance on The Past, The Present & The Possible.
3. Battles – Sweetie and Shag (featuring Kazu Makino)
Slept on their latest, but I'm catching up now. Sweet vocals courtesy of the Blonde Redhead singer and very cool disonant keys during chorus – is that a steel drum I hear?
4. M83 – Midnight City
Another new huge tune from Mr. G. Less shoegazy than his last record, but just as 80's-influenced. Available for free download via his site.
5. Public Transport – Up All Night
Sweet, big electronic pop courtesy of Duncan Bailey. I like my instrumentals, but this tune would just soar with female vocals.
6. Washed Out – You And I
The chillwave masters return.
7. Valentin Stip – Anytime Will Do
Montreal noir minimalism, available on RCRDLBL.
8. PacificUV – I'm Here (But It's Not Me)
Intimate and lovely. The latest track in their monthly free series.
9. Stargazer Lilies – Ahhh
Glacial shoegaze.
10. Dum Dum Girls – Coming Down
On their latest, I hear a cross between Mazzy Star and Low. This band just keeps getting better.
11. Alec's Band – The Great Dong Of Darkness On A Motorcycle
Noise rock instrumental that transforms from ballad to bombast. And based on this band's song titles, I'm thankful there are no lyrics.
12. Wooden Shjips – Lazy Bones
Groovy psych journey into the swamp. RCRDLBL.
13. The Jesus And Mary Chain – Supertramp
Hey, this isn't "The Logical Song!" Brace yourself for this Munki classic with "Tomorrow Never Knows" drumming, punchy bass and a cool chorus.
14. The La's – Failure
Someone wrote Mojo to diss The La's. Yes, they're overhyped because of their low output. But listen to this performance and tell me you're not blown away.
15. Veronica Falls – Come On Over
London crew runs down some pounding indie rock.
16. Girls – Vomit
The online reviews I've read of their latest tune don't describe it well. Best I can do is Led Zeppelin's "Since I've Been Loving You", mixed with Eels that ends as a Bowie or T. Rex glam soul anthem. "Come into my heart…"
Soundtrack2 Ep. 75: Twisted Mirror
Masquer, Deerhoof, Shade, New Estate, Killing Joke & more
1. The Wedding Present – Crawl
Wistful indie pop from 1990 gets us going.
2. Killing Joke – Eighties
Blast of primal yet glammy post punk featuring the UK's greatest screamer. Weird Science fans may recognize this from the crazy house party scene, before the motorcycle gang rides through the house.
3. Tones On Tail – Go
Former Bauhaus dudes dropped this freaky goth funk gem, then decided to form Love and Rockets.
4. Medicine – She Knows Everything
Wonderful screaming noise with ethereal crooning vocals over top.
5. Masquer – Happiness
Swedes provide some dark, romantic electro pop, available for free on their site.
6. Yeah Yeah Yeahs – Y Control
This popped up on my player the other day. Overlooked indie noir beauty from Fever To Tell.
7. Scarlet Chives – The Horror
Track of the week! Imagine Kate Bush crossed with My Bloody Valentine, and you've got Scarlet Chives. Name's a bit silly, mind you.
8. Skylight – As You Leave (2008)
Very cool stuff recently unearthed by the Boston band and uploaded to their bandcamp page. Nice murky shoegaze.
9. Shade – Get There With You
Latonka track with great vocals and drone. Reminds me of another band, but I can't say who…
10. Daydream – Shiny Road
This Korean band love their Ride. That's ok, we do too. Nice melody and female vocal.
11. Air Formation – Fallen Leaves
Cool, slightly dreary sonic assault.
12. New Estate – Dream Planner
Fantastic track that out-Pavements Pavement. But with a touch of shoegaze thrown in.
13. Surely I Come Quickly – The Breeze
Lo-fi from Saskatchewan? This has been kicking around for a while, but had I known they were from Saskatoon I'd have dropped it sooner. Cool French horn, or whatever that instrument is.
14. Pure X – Twisted Mirror
Reverb-drenched goover for the late late late night wind-down.
15. Sungrazer – Wild Goose
Gimme stoner rock! And make it Dutch, please. Hoping to play some more of this kind of stuff, provided it fits. Thoughts?
16. Royal Bangs – TV Tree (Deerhoof remix)
Noisy, bonkers remix of great tune from Flux Outside.
17. The Harvey Girls – Faster Peach
Hard to describe this one, but trust me it' s great. Till next time.
Soundtrack2 Ep. 74: Unseen
Moonface, Swirlies, Younghusband, Centro-Matic, Lunch & more
1. Miracle Fortress – Tracers
New post punk tune gets the ball rolling. This track reminds me of a far cooler version of Talking Heads. Freaky breakdown too.
2. Moonface – Fast Peter
Wolf Parade guy gets his epic synth rock on.
3. For Those Who Know – Competition (Drone Control Remix)
Blissed out dream pop with great washes of guitar and heavily distorted vocals.
4. Apparat – Black Water
Producer Sascha Ring drops a slow moving dream pop beauty here.
5. 2muchachos – Magic Tanner
Glacial organ from this Russian band reminds me of some tracks from the fabulous National Parks Project.
6. Fallen Rule – Let People Not Be Your Foundation
Heart-on-sleeve rock grandeur in the Irish tradition of U2 and The Frames.
7. Starfyler 59 – Play The C Chord
A classic midtempo rock tune with a slight twang.
8. Eleanor Friedberger – My Mistakes
Trying something a bit different with this track from one half of The Fiery Furnaces. Reserve judgement until the track fully kicks in.
9. Centro-Matic – Only In My Double Mind
Texas crew brings glimmering, hopeful rock and roll with lovely harmonies. Bit of an Arcade Fire vibe.
10. Lunch – Turn Around
Remember The Replacements? Imagine them gone shoegaze…sorta.
11. Radical Dads – Walking Wires
80s-style indie pop from Brooklyn.
12. Younghusband – Carousel
Song of the week! Glorious shimmering shoegaze available from RCRDLBL.
13. Swirlies – Sound Of Sebring
Fabulous moody shoegaze from 1996's They Spent Their Wild Youthful Days In The Glittering World Of The Salons.
14. Airiel – Airtight Angels
Yes! Swirling shoegaze rock and roll. Must play more Airiel.
15. Bailterspace – Unseen
Air bass time! Killer nihilist shoegaze from the legendary Kiwi band's Aim EP.
16. White Noise Sound – Sunset
Waiting for the second coming of Spacemen 3? Look no further.
Soundtrack2 Ep. 73: Runes
Soren Well, Austra, Highspire, Balam Acab, Appliance & more
1. Austra – Hate Crime
Funky thumping electro pop tune that gets stuck inside your head.
2. Still Corners – Cuckoo
Desolate 3 a.m. torch song outta the UK.
3. Arrange – Blinds With You
Probably the first Florida band I've ever featured. Just gorgeous tune for a rainy day.
4. Balam Acab – Oh Why
Heartbreaking soulful electronic swan song with lovely vocal samples.
5. Active Child – Body Heat (So Far Away)
Electronic soul soundtrack to a lost 80s film. Imagine Bon Iver with a sampler and drum machine.
6. Yo La Tengo – Autumn Sweater
The groovy indie rock classic.
7. Flavor Crystals – Church Fuzz
Midwestern band starts with a slow dirge and then breaks into mesmerizing krautrock.
8. Appliance – Return To Telemark
Motorik pscyh off last year's epic 3-CD Re-Conditioned. Well worth getting.
9. The Secret Machines – Nowhere Again
One from the borderline space rock band's classic Now Here Is Nowhere.
10. S.C.U.M – Amber Hands
Exciting, glammy Suede-style psychedelic rock and roll.
11. Dirty Pulp Theatre – Shining Soul
Digging this 90s style indie rock.
12. Soren Well – Honey On Fire
New JAMC-lite shoegaze tune that's made me want to dig into some of their older stuff.
13. Highspire – Glass In My Mouth
The highlight of this week's mix. Classic Ride-influenced shoegaze.
14. Lilys – Claire Hates Me
Such a simple riff and chords, but it's just fantastic. "I am Kane…I'm not Abel…" Kurt really needs to get on some new stuff.
15. Burrrn – Eyes In Motion
Mod rock and roll with fantastic distorted bass. I'd kill to see this played live.
16. Iceage – White Rune
Mental punk overload. Need to play more stuff like this. Any recommendations?

At Midland Surgical Associates, we perform some surgeries using the Da Vinci Robotics system when it is advantageous to the patient. Robotic surgery is similar to laparoscopic/endoscopic surgery, as it allows for smaller incisions and is minimally invasive. It can often provide the patient with a shorter recovery period, less scarring, less blood loss, less risk of infection, a shorter hospital stay, and less postoperative pain, swelling, and bruising.
The Da Vinci robot by Intuitive Surgical allows for more precise movements than endoscopic surgery, and the robot is fully operated by the physician from a console with both hand and foot controls. The system was designed to handle more complex surgeries than most robotics.
It has four arms with wristed instruments that can bend and rotate more than the human hand. These arms can hold scalpels, scissors, cautery instruments, an endoscopic camera, and other objects. The endoscopic camera or laparoscope sends images to an enhanced 3D and HD video monitor, providing the surgeon with the best possible visualization of internal structures.
The Da Vinci Surgical System's ergonomic capabilities have been designed to enhance laparoscopic procedures and give the surgeon the maximum dexterity and precision. As a result, it can be used for many cardiac, colorectal, gynecologic, head & neck, thoracic, urologic, and general surgical procedures.
Your surgeon is in 100% control of the Da Vinci robot at all times, and the robot also performs more than a million safety checks every second. It has already been used successfully on more than 3 million patients worldwide.
Feel free to ask us about robotics and whether they can be used in your case.

The First Presidential Debate: Obama Fooled
I experienced the debate from two perspectives: the first part I heard on the radio in the car and, by the second half, I had arrived home and watched the rest of it on TV.
While in the car, listening on NPR, I thought I may be missing some of Barack's nuances because I could not see him. I assumed, and hoped, that he was actually doing better in front of the TV because, on the radio, he had the effect of a sedative.
Once in front of the TV, he appeared in person just as his voice portrayed on the radio: listless and exhausted.
In reading about the debate pre-debate, many people thought Obama would drive home the final nail in the Romney campaign coffin. However, those really in the know, suggested that Obama, while a very moving speaker, is not a great debater because he often comes across as arrogant and someone who does not suffer fools easily. And, clearly, he would place Mitt in that category.
The fool in the room, though, was Barack, who entered this debate unprepared, unpleasantly edgy, subdued, and presumptuous of a victory in November that now will be more difficult to attain.
The First Presidential Debate: Romney Ready
Many people who have seen Mitt Romney in his element–the boardroom–have until now been flummoxed by Romney the candidate, a person they haven't been able to recognize as one in the same, until last night.
They have said that boardroom Mitt is energetic, persuasive, detailed, and positive. And, last night they say, we saw boardroom Mitt.
It could not have gone better for the Romney campaign.
How do we know this? The news media, who the Republicans think are a bunch of liberally commies, even acknowledged Romney as the winner.
Romney won by bringing a positive, optimistic, and ready attitude. If people tuned into find the kind of hope Barack offered in 2008, they got it from Romney last night in 2012.
And the issues? What about issues? How did Romney the Ready handle the issues?
Romney the Ready handled the issues just fine, with facts at the ready, which made the issues a non-issue. Today, nobody is talking about the issues, which are the same as they were before the debate.
It's all about how the candidates came across.
And, in this first presidential debate, Romney came across as knowledgeable, energetic, and hopeful while Barack just came across as, well, cross.

o REFERENCES
This is what certain delegates had to say about previous workshops:
Dear Deon – Thanks for helping me. The workbook you gave me is like a Bible to me. Every day I read a few pages and action them. Minah
Hi Deon. Just loved the workshop yesterday. You've fired me with inspiration and energy. Thank you so much. You are awesome. Kind regards Lesley-Ann van Niftrik, Public Relations Specialist
Dear Deon – I found the course very insightful. For me one of the greatest benefits I received was to interact with others in similar positions, facing similar challenges, facilitated by an expert. Where else can you get that? Certainly not at a marketing conference / exhibition, not in a lecture situation nor through online forums (people are concerned about confidentiality). This is one area where I think you could potentially market the course. Thanks for a great session. Leanne Pinnock – The IQ Business Group
Many thanks for your interesting workshop. It was an excellent experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. Your presentation was stimulating and provided plenty of good ideas and much food for thought. Interacting with the other participants was extremely valuable and has provided some useful contacts. – Dr Michael Glencross, Head, School of Business, Bond SA
Thanks for a very informative course. When you're constantly working in marketing you tend to get into a routine and sometimes you need a 'refresher' to refocus on getting the best results. A few times during the day I got the feeling that I needed to kick myself for having lost direction. I loved your analogy of the funnel – Wendy Evans called it the barge approach and uses the 90 day call cycle. I know it works, yet I stopped doing it. I started it again this morning, and it was so easy to make those few calls. I will be presenting this to our sector leaders and I hope I can do justice to your course. – Petra Krugel, Business Development Manager, Turner & Townsend
"Thank you for a simple, practical and effective workshop. While I practised a lot of the marketing techniques instinctively, you succeeded in showing me that "instinct" is not as important as "constant". You raised the awareness that marketing is an ongoing activity, as important as delivering quality work every time and sending out invoices on time. The funnel visual is imprinted on my brain and I am already working on plans to keep it full of marketing impact so that the work keeps trickling in. – Ingrid Staude-Griesel, Managing Member: Words'Worth Publishing Consultants

Vassar Clements was one of the world's finest and most versatile fiddle
players. His phenomenal ability to virtually play any kind of music (bluegrass,
country, pop, blues, rock, jazz and swing) garnered him numerous awards,
including five Grammy nominations. He was also a prolific composer of instrumentals
and played seven instruments - violin, viola, cello, bass, mandolin, guitar
and tenor banjo.
Vassar's career spanned over fifty years. His association with Bill Monroe began when he was only 14 years old and still in school. He started with Bill as a regular Bluegrass Boy in 1949 and was with him through 1956. From 1957 to 1961 he performed with bluegrass stalwarts, Jim & Jesse McReynolds. In 1962 he took leave from his music to pursue other interests, but returned to full time music when he decided to make Nashville his home in January 1967.
Vassar did recording sessions and played tenor banjo in Nashville's "Dixieland Landing" club until October 1969. He then started touring with Faron Young and doing occasional solo dates when time permitted. In February 1971, he joined John Hartford and his "Dobrolic Plectral Society", initiating a professional association and personal friendship that grew even stronger through the years. After ten months, and earning an enormous amount of recognition and popularity the group decided to disband. Vassar then found himself with the legendary Earl Scruggs and the "Earl Scruggs Revue."
During this time, one of the most important milestones in his career, was his participation on the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's 1972 Landmark album "Will The Circle Be Unbroken." This historical event was produced by William McEuen and featured an extravaganza of bluegrass, country and folk's greatest artists.
Within a few short months, Vassar was recording and/or performing with Dicky Betts, Jerry Garcia, The Grateful Dead, The Allman Brothers, Linda Ronstadt, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, David Grisman, Paul McCartney et al. In May 1973, The Classic, "Old & In The Way" album was recorded in San Francisco during a live performance.
Since 1973, when Vassar signed his first major label deal with Mercury/Polygram records, his personal discography totals 27 albums ranging from country, waltzes, swing & jazz. Ironically, in 1992 he recorded his only straight bluegrass recording for Rounder Records entitled "Grass Routes."
To say that Vassar Clements was a musicians' musician is an understatement. His modest demeanor and his professional approach to music made him an idol to many in the entertainment industry. He was the quintessential American musician. Vassar passed away in August of 2005.

Going into a state of hypnosis is a very normal natural activity.
Most people describe hypnosis as a restful state where they are still aware, in control,
but very relaxed, much like the twilight time before sleep.
A person hypnotized is aware of everything the hypnotist says at all times.
The hypnotic subject will never forget anything, unless they agree to forget.
Persons under hypnosis will always awaken from hypnosis easily.
You cannot remain in hypnosis for more than several minutes unless you want to.
Persons in hypnosis will remain in control of themselves at all times.
No person can be hypnotized without their consent, cooperation and willingness.
No one can be made to do anything they are morally opposed to during hypnosis
(in fact most people appear more ethical during hypnosis)
Hypnosis is not a miraculous power.
Hypnosis merely enables your mind to access and use your own natural healing and
physical abilities, to assist in healing or physical accomplishment.
Hypnosis allows your subconscious mind to accept positive suggestions
Hypnotic suggestions can change or release unwanted behavior patterns.
Hypnosis can strengthen any part of your personality or ability that you desire.Hypnosis actually strengthens the will and improves the powers of the mind

Next Life - The Lost Age
The Lost Age is the Norwegian duo's follow up to their 2006 full-length Electric Violence. Production value has certainly gone up, but there isn't very much that sets this apart from their last release, which isn't necessarily as bad thing (yet). By the looks of the album cover, and overall sound of the album, it sounds as if the duo was more concentrated on creating an improved and slightly more epic version of Electric Violence. They have managed to pull that off for this release, but they're going to need to develop their sound further in the near future. To be honest, if you were to play pieces of either album, I would have a hard time identifying which one I'm hearing. I don't mean for this to sound like a negative review. This is still highly enjoyable chiptune-ish metal, and the fact that the individual tracks rarely break the 2-minute mark keeps you on your toes, but I really hope they take it a step further for their next release. If you want to hear Electric Violence, I posted it a while back.

Why the f**k do you make this album free for all to download?
Delete the link from your blog or be prepared to get sued!
- Sunday, April 19, 2009 10:46:00 AM
music is free these days. sorry to inform some of you.
totally agree with the review. Next Live's sound's great but this is just a photocopy (in colour) of their first effort.

5th Feb Syphon Night starting to book…
…We have a few places left but only a handful of Hario TCA-2 Syphon Filters remaining. The price of this beautiful brewing aparatus is only $88 for people attending the Syphon Filter Demonstration. Due to the extra costs of freighting the retail price of $109 will be going up to $119. So this is a bloody good price for anyone who appreciates this style of coffee but we don't have many left, about 10-15 at old price. If you are interested in this coffee demonstration, the first of it's kind in Australia, please contact via email. Either just book for the night $50 or for the night & syphon filter $138.00. (While the stocks last)
Note: The Syphon Filter we sell is the silver one, not the gold one in the photo below.
Enquiries please call Luke Mutton (03) 9686 2990 or email email@example.com
Syphon Filter Demonstration 5th February with Mieko Koike & Toshi Ishiwata
ST. ALi is holding our first coffee syphon filter demonstration by a Syphon Filter Champion, Ms Mieko Koike.
We will be serving syphon filtered coffee soon, so we have invited Mieko, who is also a barista judge, to demonstrate and talk(with the help of a translator) about the correct syphon filter techniques and also about the appropriate coffees to use. With the primary aim focusing on staff training.
Mieko won the 2006 Japan Syphon Filter Championships and also owns a Syphon Bar in Japan. She is very passionate about coffee and is excited that this is taking off around the world. Apart from it being a very sexy way to serve coffee, it offers a clean, smooth, round drinking experience, and captures the beautiful nuances of our single origin coffees superbly.
Invitation is open to all. If you currently own a syphon filter, you are free to bring it along and get some hands on experience. Just let me know. If not sit back and enjoy. We will also be selling the Hario TCA-2 Syphon Filter on the night for a 20% discount for those willing to get stuck into this at home. Normally $109 but for attendees $88.00
The cost is $50 per head.
5th February. 6.30PM
Food will be prepared by Ben Cooper.
For enquiries or to book please email firstname.lastname@example.com before 3oth January. Numbers will be limited so get in quick.

Warren Buffet is the Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway and often considered one of the best investors of all time. Buffet, who is one of the wealthiest people in the world as well, has often stated that most people would be better off investing in low-cost funds, as opposed to actively managed funds that have higher expense ratios.
To prove his point, Buffett recently entered into a bet against a few different mutual funds and hedge funds to see who could get a better return in a 12-month period. Buffet, who only invested in a few different index funds, ended up getting a better return over the year than all of the funds that he was up against.
Like Timothy Armour on Facebook.
While it would seem that Buffett proved his point, some are still not sure that his strategy is the best option. Timothy Armour, who is the principal of The Capital Group, stated that one of the reasons that Buffett was successful was because he happened to invest in a bullish economy. During bearish economies, hedge and mutual funds have the ability to build in stop-loss protections and hedge against risk while index funds do not. Because of this, over the long haul, The Capital Group has an average rate of return 1.5% higher than an index fund, even after fees are considered.
The Capital Group is a prominent investment firm and asset manager. Timothy Armour has worked for this firm for over 20 years, spending much of this time in portfolio and asset management.

Features & Specifications
The SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit includes two complete softboxes that each sit on wheeled stands capable of extending to 14-feet high. The lamp bodies each have internal fans to help keep the lights cool and keep you cool while you work. The stands can adjust to a low of 5-feet and a high of 14-feet and feature large easy to roll casters on each leg with wheel locks. If you are using the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit in a more permanent installation, the casters are removable.
Other items included with the kit are 7-inch reflectors, two halogen lamps, two inner diffusion lenses, two soft box four panel tents, support rods for each box, two main diffuser lenses, two directional grid lenses, two round spot lenses, two rectangle spot lenses, and a nylon carry case for mobile use.
Assenbly & Use
Assembling the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit was easy enough but took a bit of time. I found that getting the support rods into the first softbox was a bit tedious. You have to be very careful and follow the instructions exactly or you risk inserting the wrong support rod at the wrong time and bending it. The tension rods were the only part of the lighting system that I found to be challenging to assemble. After the first softbox was assembled, the second one took much less time.
The main diffusers attach to the soft box with Velcro and are easy to change as you need. The light fixtures themselves are large and substantial with very good build quality. Anyone who has worked with large high output softboxes or other lighting knows that they generate lots of heat. I have a Photoflex softbox that I use frequently that puts out enough heat to make working for extended periods a sweaty proposition.
The SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit has fans in each of the light fixtures and they do a fantastic job of moving the heat generated by the halogen bulbs away from the work area. The heat produces when working with the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit is much less noticeable than the heat output of the other softboxes I have worked with.
Each of the light fixtures also has a knob that allows you to adjust the light intensity. Each fixture also has its own on/off switch. I liked the large "T" shaped adjustment handle on the rear of the fixtures that makes for easier adjustment of the softbox when working. The stands themselves are large and well built, yet not so heavy as to be a serious burden should you ever need to use the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit on the road.
Overall, I liked the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit very much. Square Perfect makes a very well built softbox kit at a great price. You can get the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit with a pair of softboxes for a MSRP of $577.45. That may sound like a lot until you start pricing quality softbox kits and find that you typically only get one softbox for that price. The only issue I had with the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit was that the stands are a bit bulky, making use in tight spaces more difficult.
The SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit is a great softbox kit that is well built, functions well and comes in at a price that gives you two softboxes for what you would normally pay for one. If you are a photographer in need of a softbox kit, the SP1000 Professional Series Softbox Kit from Square Perfect deserves a close look.

Our Story and the Reward Plan - post comment
13th Wizardry is a company that was founded by a father and daughter duo, and the reason we founded it is because we both love pop culture, comics, movies, comic cons, superheroes and everything that goes along with that. It all started at our first comic con, at that moment, we were inspired to create a business doing what we love, and from that moment on this has been our dream in the making. Our desire is to share that experience and passion with as many people as possible. We understand that our prices are a bit higher than large corporations that offer no personal connection with the people that make it all happen. Please understand that we are family owned company who wants the best for our customers and their satisfaction. Rather than just having customers that come, buy, and leave. We want to connect with people who understand what we are doing and share the same passion that we do. We acknowledge that there is a ton of competition out there for your hard-earned dollars. We want to reward you for your loyalty and continued business. Below is a list of all the perks you earn if you spend $250 in the span of one year with 13th Wizardry.
Reward Plan

In the future, we will be creating another reward plan for people who spend $500, and another for the real go getters out there that spend over $1000. Always remember that if there is a specific item you would like to purchase and we don't have it we can special order it if possible, so please let us know. We also frequently have a booth at Comic Cons around the country and we will be letting you know the next show we are going to. Just in case you want to drop by. We truly appreciate you taking the time to learn about our story.
