Back when I used a Surface Pro 2 as my primary computer, I was quickly running out of space and needed more room. A 128GB microSD card set me back well over $100, and just a few short years later, the same capacity with faster read/write speeds is less than half the price.
If you have a phone, tablet, Nintendo Switch, or something else with a microSD card slot, Samsung's new Evo Select cards are the way to go. They're pretty cheap – just $13 for 32GB, $23 for 64GB, and $44.99 for 128GB.

Team17, perhaps best known for its long-running Worms series, released 'Penarium' on Steam back in 2015. The game is centered around a sadistic arena-like circus show, where you take on the role as Willy as he tries to survive the death traps. Now the game has been released on the Play Store.
Much like the PC version, the Android port has very low requirements – it even works on Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread. The price isn't too bad either – just $1.99 for the entire game.

"Hey, man. Did you hear that Qualcomm's new X20 modem is rated for cat 18 LTE, carries 12 spatial streams and is 4×4 MIMO capable? Isn't that cool?"
Maybe that's cool, but really how is a regular person with a regular job or who goes to regular school and has regular hobbies supposed to know? It sounds like a secret code with all the abbreviations and acronyms, and the companies who want us to buy it aren't any better at explaining: "10 times faster" "5G" "Gigabit". Those words may convey the right message — that things will be fast — but take no time to say why or how.
A lot of tech talk is this way. Engineers are lazy when it comes to typing or writing. Things like "power over Ethernet" instantly become PoE, or "impedance" becomes Z (I is for current.

Under the guidance of returned Coach Corey Fuller, the Jaguars have turned the page on last year's forgettable season, and have refocused themselves. Optimism within the players and coaches can be both seen and felt during their intense team practices.
The seed of high expectation was planted by East Gadsden's coaching staff in the spring, and is continually being watered during fall practice.
Fuller is providing his players with tough love in an effort to make sure "guys get better with each practice."
The Munroe Bobcats came out of spring break to a pair of district games against Tallavana and FAMU High. Playing without seniors Bo Bailey, Max Baroody, Will Harris, Bradley Klees, and Casey Mathers, who were in Breckinridge, Colo., for the annual senior trip, and with fellow seniors Nolan Haire and Jonny Walkup using the week to rest up, the Bobcats enjoyed an abbreviated week of Baseball.
This past week in softball action the three county teams that field a softball team: Munroe, East Gadsden and Tallavana Christian, played with Munroe emerging as the top team in the county.
Munroe 20
Tallavana Christian 5
Tallavana Christian scored five runs off freshman pitcher Emily Harris to open up the district game played at Munroe on Tuesday, March 24. Munroe then answered in the bottom of the first with six runs. Hannah Wilde came in to pitch and finished the game on the mound, getting the win.
WGHS Panthers beat North View 74-44 in a Tuesday night game. If the Panthers prevail in Friday night's match, they will be on their way to Lakeland to compete for the state championship. For the story on Friday's game that made the Panthers district champs, see Page 1B.
After completing their regular season schedule with an impressive record of 25-2, the Panthers entered into the District Tournament, which was hosted at Panama City's Bozeman High School.
West Gadsden smashed Liberty County 74-43 in their first game of the tournament, en route to the championship game.
The Panthers faced the Franklin County Seahawks in the Championship game; after a slow start they turned up their defensive intensity and went on to win by a score of 59-36.
The visiting Maclay Marauders struck in the first inning for 4 runs but Munroe answered for 2 in the bottom of the first inning. Maclay then scored seven runs over the next three innings to the Lady Cats six runs and the game stayed close until the top of the fifth. A few hits combined with a few Munroe errors gave Maclay four runs that Munroe could never answer.
QUINCY — This past Saturday East and West Gadsden brought their regular seasons to a close with their annual showdown at James A. Shanks Gymnasium.
West Gadsden looked to complete its sweep after having won the first round of this rivalry series in Havana earlier this season; East Gadsden, on the other hand, entered the contest in search of revenge.
The anticipation and excitement was felt throughout the packed gym as the teams jogged onto the court. Both teams looked very poised as they stretched and ran through their pre-game drills.
District tournaments were held this past week and only one of four county girls basketball teams will still be playing basketball this week. East Gadsden narrowly missed a championship while Munroe, Tallavana Christian and West Gadsden all ended their seasons in semifinal action.
An already difficult season ended with four losses for the Munroe Varsity Boys. The Bobcats dropped decisions to Altha, North Florida Christian, Liberty County and Poplar Springs.
"Yes, this season has definitely been a struggle," said Head Coach Joey Birdsong. "We commit too many turnovers and our shot selection isn't what it needs to be, but the upside is the kids are all still working and trying to improve. We've got the district tournament next week, so we still have a chance to find some success.
During the Christmas break, East and West Gadsden competed in basketball tournaments in an effort to both improve and prepare for the second half of the season.
On Dec. 26 to 29, West Gadsden traveled to Thomasville , Ga., to play in the State Farm
Hoop Fest Tournament; during the trip the Panthers defeated Barron County but suffered losses to Thomasville High and Seminole County. Coach Andrew Moten said his team "started to decline in free-throw percentage. In both of our losses we missed double-digit attempts from the free-throw line."

Hoarseness refers to a difficulty making sounds when trying to speak. Vocal sounds may be weak, breathy, scratchy, or husky, and the pitch or quality of the voice may change.
Voice strain; Dysphonia; Loss of voice
Hoarseness is most often caused by a problem with the vocal cords, which are part of your voice box (larynx) in
the throat.When the vocal cords become inflamed or infected, they swell. This can cause hoarseness.
The most common cause of hoarseness is a cold or sinus infection, which usually goes away on its own
within 2 weeks.
Another rare, but serious cause of hoarseness that does not go away in a few weeks is cancer of the voice box.
Less common causes include:
Hoarseness may be short-term (
Things you can do at home to help relieve the problem include:
Call your health care provider if:
The doctor will examine your throat, neck, and mouth and ask you some questions about your symptoms and medical history, including:

New Research Shows Gen X is More Likely to Quit a Job Than Gen YSeptember 10th, 2009
Hi All!
Had great day today! I conducted a mini-version of my "Get A Grip On Gen Y" seminar for the Women in Business chapter of the Santa Cruz Chamber of Commerce. There were over 100 attendees and the event was held at the newly renovated Dream Inn Hotel. The meeting space had sweeping views of the beach and was amazing! All you meeting planners need to check this place out for events!
Anyway, it was a great group and we all shared a lot of laughs. I love doing presentations with people and energy like that!
Here's the deal with the topic I'm sharing on this post: Talent Management (talentmgt.com) published an article this month about how Gen X employees are more likely to quit their job, and are searching for new ones, more than Gen Y (aka Millennials). Millennials get a bad rap for being job hoppers, but it really may be that employers need to be focusing on the retention of their Gen X talent just as much, if not MORE, than their Millennials.
The article is entitled: Consider Cost-Effective Alternatives to Retain Gen X, written by Erin Green
Here's a brief excerpt:
Though employers are increasingly concerned about talent retention post-recession, their focus is often on retaining millennials instead of a more immediate concern: Generation X employees may already have one foot out the door.
"More than 20 percent of Generation X employees have already been looking for new employment in the past 12 months, which is the highest [amount of active job seekers] for any generation," said Robin Erickson, a manager in the human capital practice of Deloitte Consulting LLP.
Gen Xers' strong desire to move up to managerial positions may be the main reason for the anticipated turnover.
"Forty percent of Generation X employees cited lack of career progress as the prime motivation to switch jobs today, which is considerably higher than their survey colleagues in Generation Y [at] 30 percent, baby boomers [at] 20 percent and veterans [at] 14 percent," said Erickson.
Deloitte will publish a report later this month – a follow-up to the July report "Managing Talent in a Turbulent Economy" – that will reveal new survey data on employee perspectives by generation and region. The data comes from a global survey of employees, covering all regions – the Americas, Asia Pacific, and Europe, Middle East and Africa.

More than two decades ago, a newborn sick with fever was snatched from a New York City hospital, her frantic mother returning to the emergency room to find an empty crib. On Wednesday, police said the baby — now a woman who reached out to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children because she suspected that the people raising her were not her real family — has been found.

Carlina White was just 19 days old when she disappeared from Harlem Hospital on Aug. 4, 1987. Police searched for her kidnappers but never found enough evidence to charge any suspects. Her mother, Joy White, always had a feeling that her baby was alive, her family said.Video: Aunt of girl taken in '87 wants to help find suspect (on this page)
"I never gave up looking for her," she told the New York Post.

On Jan. 4, a woman known as Nejdra Nance, who was raised in Bridgeport, Conn., and now lives in Atlanta, contacted Joy White, sending along baby photos that looked nearly identical to shots of Carlina posted on a missing children's website. Nance told White she thought she might be her daughter.
Nance had long suspected that the people raising her were not her real family. After she found a photo of a familiar-looking girl on the website of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, she got in touch with the organization, which in turn contacted Joy White on Jan. 4.Video: Kidnapped girl, family 'picking up' from where they left off (on this page)
"She said she just had a feeling; she felt different from the people raising her," said Nance's maternal grandmother, Elizabeth White, 71. "She searched, and then she found Joy."
In a report that aired Thursday on TODAY, Ernie Allen, president of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, told NBC News: "I think it's important that people recognize this girl is the hero. She's the one whose intelligence and tenacity resulted in her own recovery, reuniting her with her family."Video: Son finds birth mom at work (on this page)
After Nance got in touch with her, Joy White contacted the New York Police Department to see if it could help investigate whether Nance was really her missing daughter, Carlina White.
"It sounded legitimate and credible, so I had Missing Persons reach out to her," said Detective Martin Brown, who fielded the call. DNA tests performed on Joy White, her ex-husband, Carl Tyson, and 23-year-old Nance matched, police said: Nejdra Nance was Carlina White.

"This is somebody who knew something was wrong in her life and took the initiative," Allen told Ann Curry live on TODAY Thursday. "She said, 'Things aren't the way they should be,' and so she reached out. All we did was follow the information that she gave us."
As part of their investigation, police are talking to retired detectives who handled the case years ago. Because she was so young when she was kidnapped, it's impossible for Nance to know if she has lived with the same family the entire time.Video: How cops learned they were dad, son (on this page)
Nance was on her way back to New York from Atlanta on Wednesday, said Elizabeth White, and Joy White was en route to the airport to meet her. But they already reunited once recently, when Nance came to New York with her 5-year-old daughter, Samani.
"It was wonderful, she didn't even seem like a stranger, she just fit right in," Elizabeth White said. "We all went up there, we had dinner together, her aunts were there. She brought her beautiful daughter. It was magic."
Elizabeth White said she didn't ask Nance too many questions about how she grew up or how she knew she was not a member of the family with whom she lived. She didn't want to push Nance too much.
"That will all come," Elizabeth White said of the history. "What's important now is our baby girl is home. She's home."Story: Abducted girl's aunt: Kidnapper 'destroyed my family'
"It's a message of hope," Allen told Ann Curry Thursday. "It's a message that many more of these children are recoverable. Today Carlina White becomes a symbol that the search goes on for lots of others of America's missing children."

Although they took no formal action, members of the Sarasota County Traffic Advisory Council Monday agreed larger speed limit signs, especially on roads with faster-flowing traffic, would be an improvement.
The next step is for the county's executive director of public works to decide whether the change is feasible.
Chris Hauber, an engineer in the county's Mobility/Traffic Engineering Office, told the five council members that county policy calls for speed limit signs measuring 24 inches by 30 inches.
"We almost entirely install 24 by 30," Hauber said.
However, studies had shown that the faster a vehicle is traveling, the farther away a speed limit sign should be visible so a driver can react appropriately, Hauber said.
Hauber suggested on county roads with speed limits greater than 45 mph, the county could install signs measuring either 36 inches by 48 inches or 30 inches by 36 inches. At present, signs that large are used only on county roads with speed limits of 50 or 55 mph.
On any road with a speed limit of 45 mph, the council agreed the county should have the option of using signs measuring 30 inches by 36 inches.
"As I've gotten older, I've really gotten to appreciate the bigger signs," council member Frank Domingo said.
The drawback, however, he said, is that if a person becomes accustomed to seeing larger signs in one area and travels to another place where the signs generally are smaller, the person may miss those signs more easily.
Council member Joseph Glickman agreed larger signs are a good idea. He added the sooner the county could make the changes, the better.

When Boardwalk Empire debuted last year on HBO, one of the knocks against it was that there wasn't enough story to fill up those multi-million-dollar feature-film-worthy sets. Okay, the naysayer argument went, you built Prohibition-era Atlantic City, now what are you going to do with it? And there were the inevitable negative comparisons with departed HBO-drama masterpieces: The Wire, Deadwood, The Sopranos.
The zigzagging overlapping stories and multiple characterizations did take a while to settle down, and so did the tone. When loony federal agent Nelson Van Alden (Michael Shannon) interrupts a riverside baptism ceremony and drowns one of his confederates (a potential snitch) in full view of a horrified congregation of African-Americans, you might have admired the audacity of the scene, but you might also have wondered if the show was going to go full-on goth-grotesque. Nonetheless, in one scene after another, Boardwalk Empire — and an estimable cast — remained compelling.
Dispel any remaining doubts. The new season (which begins this Sunday at 9 pm on HBO) unfolds with a new leisurely, cinematic grandeur. The camera still lingers lovingly on sumptuous period details — a linen-covered breakfast table where the world's most powerful gambler eases his troubled stomach with apple bread, the low-angled view of a tycoon's crimson, mahogany, and gilt living room, the men's three-piece plaid suits in deep browns and greens.
Except that now, with the multitude of characters long-established, the stories are taking their time. A scene might develop in several segments over the course of a single episode — whether it's the artist wife of an aspiring gangster taking an afternoon to draw one of his cronies, or an African-American bootlegger kingpin spending the night in jail.
What's more, the language has become more particular — not the Shakespearean lilt of Deadwood, but a rhetorical music all its own. As in the best drama, characters aren't identified so much by what they say as by how they say it. "Sound elimination is the basis of good health," Arnold Rothstein (a deliciously sly Michael Stuhlbarg) explains to his wife about his choice of breakfast food. In fact, diet-as-metaphor seems to be key to AR's world view. Of his willingness to placate incorrigible mob boss Joe Masseria, Rothstein recounts his recent meeting with the old fuck: "We were served a native dish of tripe, which I cannot abide. But I ate it anyway. Some things, Charlie, you just have to swallow." Such philosophizing only enhances the slow-boil tension and convulsive spasms of graphic violence.
Of course, the intra- and inter-ethnic rivalries, are part of what keeps Boardwalk Empire humming — Italians, Jews, Irish, African-Americans. The Ku Klux Klan make a visit, and so does Sinn Fein.
And what of the stories' threads from last season? Jimmy (Michael Pitt) has turned on Atlantic City boss Nucky Thompson (Steve Buscemi) to realign with his biological father, the Commodore (Dabney Coleman). The noose is tightening on our Nuck, and you have to wonder how he's going to get out of it. Nucky's saintly if shrewd companion, the widow Schroeder (Kelly Macdonald), appears ready to turn to the dark side. And African-American gang boss Chalky White (Michael Kenneth Williams) finds himself as humiliated as a "field nigger." All well and good — language, stories, and characterizations are now of a piece with the décor.
And never underestimate Chalky — after seeing that extended jailhouse scene (in which he suffers the insults of another black inmate), you'll never hear the opening lines of David Copperfield the same way again. Does that make the new season of Boardwalk Empire Dickensian? Maybe. But it's definitely epic.

Dividend net increases (which counts increases less decreases) totaled $8.8 billion in the third quarter, S&P Dow Jones Indices said Wednesday, "setting what is believed to be a new record dividend quarterly payout in aggregate dollars" for U.S. domestic listed common stock issues.
S&P DJI reported 439 dividend increases during the Q3, a 25.4% gain over the 350 increases reported during Q3 2011, while just 53 companies of the approximately 10,000 U.S. traded issues decreased their dividend in Q3, versus 23 in Q3 2011.
"Dividends continue to have a great year, with actual cash payments increasing over 19% and the forward indicated dividend rate reaching a new all-time high," says Howard Silverblatt, senior index analyst at S&P DJI. "Payout rates, which historically average 52%, remain near their lows at 34%. At this point, we expect to see double-digit growth in actual dividend payments for the fourth quarter of 2012 and a potential double-double gain in 2013 – depending on Washington."
Silverblatt also said yields for paying issues decreased to 2.66% at the end of the third quarter from 2.77% at the end of the second quarter. "The yield decline was the result of a strong third quarter equity market," Silverblatt said "Yields remain relatively high when compared to competing income producers such as bonds, treasuries or CDs."
S&P lists among the top Q3 dividend-raisers on its Dividend Aristocrats list Cisco Systems (CSCO) (75%), Expedia Inc. (EXPE) (44%), Marathon Petruleum (MPC) (40%), Fifth Third Bancorp (FITB) (25%) and Texas Instruments (TXN) (24%).

WSB-TVs HSUS Investigation Aftermath: It Isnt Over
By ESaunders AR-HR.com
Welcome to the jungle weve got fun & games. They claim theyre saving animals but politics pulls the reins. (Apologies to Guns n Roses, I got carried away for a moment)
Its amazing how this story just keeps on rolling, and its really the Humane Society of the United States that is driving it. A cone of silence continues to descend over the original WSB-TV story on HSUS fundraising practises that continues to support the rumor of the unleashing of the HSUS legal team on WSB-TV for their researched & fact-supported story.
As I previously mentioned, the original story been removed from the WSB-TV website. When I wrote to WSB-TV that I was saddened to see the story removed from their website, I received the following response. A response that has been sent out to others who wrote in to WSB-TV over their disappointment as seeing the story vanish from view.
Thank you for writing to Talk2Us. We appreciate hearing that you were engaged by the report about HSUS. We put up and pull down stories as part of our daily editorial process. We are working on an additional story about HSUS. - WSB-TV
Its an odd response. How often does a network pull a story after less than 24hrs where the viewing is accelerating and the comments are still being logged at a rapid pace. (mostly supporting the article I might add. I have copies of the comments, just in case this is contested) Furthermore, the Youtube copies of the WSB-TV video have all been taken down by WSB-TV request through a copyright claim. Funny thing though, at last my count there were 254 Youtube video links that were WSB-TV video. Yet the video that they have taken down is the one with the HSUS investigation? Considering the current evidence, I fear a much less accurate follow up. I hope to be wrong.
David Martosko of the Center of Consumer Freedom has not been immune from the attacks either. Alot of people on Twitter were surprised to find that his accounts had been suspended for Suspicious Activity, allegedly at the behest of the HSUS. Given that (a) his Twitter activity does not appear to violate Twitter terms of service and (b) the Humane Society Twitter users have the ability to block his messages if they dont want to see them, it is difficult to interpret this as anything but a message that the HSUS doesnt want anyone one Twitter to be able to see his messages.
Ive been noticing a significant amount of activity on this website as well, with a minimum of 15 visits from the Humane Society of the United States server this morning already. They are spending a lot of time on the two most previous blog articles as well as on the About AR-HR page. Ive publicly asked (via Twitter) if there is something in particular that they are looking for, but have not yet received a response
The usual recommendation to corporations facing this kind of media is to ignore it, since attempting to make it go away usually makes the process worse. Im becoming increasingly curious why they are actively choosing to forego this normal, and wise, course of action. Why is fighting to make it seem like this report never happened SO important to them up to the very highest levels?

Continued follow-up from Consumer Freedom-
(this link to the wsb-tv video in this post has already vanished, but here's another that may work http://tinyurl.com/HSUS-YouSend
it takes a while to download, and this one will probably be pulled soon. HSUS has been busy getting these taken down!)
From Consumer Freedom -
Attention dog lovers!
The nonprofit Center for Consumer Freedom has learned that the office of Louisiana Attorney General James "Buddy" Caldwell is considering whether to re-open an investigation into the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS). The investigation concerns whether HSUS improperly spent some of the $34 million it raised for the benefit of pets displaced by Hurricane Katrina.
Apparently, Caldwell's office received a deluge of phone calls beginning last week on the day after Atlanta ABC affiliate WSB-TV aired an exposé of HSUS's fundraising activities. In that report, WSB called HSUS "an organization actively misleading donors to get money." The TV station also explored just how little of HSUS's "Katrina" fundraising appears to have been spent on genuine Katrina-related disaster relief.
This was a fabulous piece of journalism on a subject many news outlets have been too intimidated or biased to cover. (WSB-TV is working on a follow-up story, but we'll all just have to wait patiently for that.)
An anonymous animal lover has made the video of the May 14 report available at http://is.gd/BQGu -- Note that there's no way to know if HSUS will be successful at continually censoring this video. (At least one previous version was pulled from YouTube this week after being viewed more than 50,000 times.)
Here's what you can do to help:
(1) CALL the Consumer Protection Section of the Louisiana Attorney General's Office during regular business hours. The toll-free number is 800-351-4889. If you live in Louisiana, please call the local number at 225-326-6465, or the general office number at 225-326-6200.
Tell whoever answers that you would like the Attorney General to re-open his investigation of the Humane Society of the United States. Remind him/her that there's no official accounting of how HSUS spent most of the $34 million it raised after Hurricane Katrina.
Before you hang up, ask to be transferred to Assistant Attorney General Mimi Hunley. If you get through to Ms. Hunley, please be polite and make the same request of her or her staff.
(2) Please follow-up with a polite e-mail to email@example.com, and let the A.G.'s office read your request in your own words. Drop me an e-mail at email@example.com and let me know how everything went. (Or just "BCC" me on your follow-up e-mail)
(3) Share the video of WSB-TV's exposé with your friends, colleagues, family, and neighbors. It remains available (for now) at http://is.gd/BQGu -- If this video should disappear, feel free to e-mail me and ask if another version has popped up anywhere.
(4) If you are able, please consider making a donation to the Center for Consumer Freedom so we can keep up the pressure on the Humane Society of the United States. We've got some exciting plans for the months ahead, but we need additional resources to make it all work.
Donations can be made at http://www.consumerfreedom.com/donations.cfm and they are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. The Center for Consumer Freedom is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
Thanks for all you do to provide for animals. Remember: You are the real animal advocates. And we're on your side.

Github game off 2012 post-mortem
Github's game off is over and the winners have been announced. Unfortunately my game, The Moonening, didn't place. Sad face. The whole process was fun and I know what went well and what went wrong, which gives me a good idea of what to do next…
What went wrong
Animation & Events
My canvas framework, bang, doesn't yet support animations like sprites, so I experimented a little with the way I would represent the characters. I did this by creating a base Sprite object that takes an image path and a list of rectangles, one for each frame of the animation. This essentially limits a sprite to having one animation. I then created another object called Toon that is a collection of Sprites. The character objects can show certain animations by specifying a Sprite in the Toon, and a frame in the Sprite. This ended up being problematic once I wanted to use certain frames for other animations, or trigger events after an animation played.
Events were handled by Action objects that bind an object to an event handler. I liked this pattern, but often I wanted an Action to trigger other actions, wait for those, then finish doing something else. This didn't work correctly because half of the Actions ended the current turn so triggering them meant that the turn is over and now other Actions will soon be triggering. I'll fix this in the future by making all async game actions use callbacks.
Sound is almost non-existent. My friend Jimmy wrote three kick ass songs but I could only include one and the game has no sound effects.
The user controls some number of astronauts in a turn-based puzzler. This seemed really cool at first but once the player is controlling more than one astronaut it can be quite confusing. I like it, but I'm biased. The next version will probably not be turn based but will instead see the user playing a group of astros all at once, using some sort of flocking algorithm in a more action-adventure (zelda style) setup.
What went right
Editor & Levels
Even though ONLY ONE PLAYER found the level editor, which is mentioned in the readme and linked on the main page, it was the best part of the game. The most fun I had during the jam was sitting around at my friend Bryce's house drinking beers making levels (and bug fixes). That and listening to Jimmy's songs. The way you can create a level, save it as an image in your browser's local storage and then navigate to the game page to play said level was in my opinion pretty novel. But alas – I guess I didn't stress it enough on the main page. A link was not enough.
Art & Music
My roommate Alex Whitehurst helped with the art and I think it looks great. He drew the faces of the astronaut, the blob animations and the crate. He also did a bunch more, but I couldn't program as fast as he can draw. The art gives the game a cute feel and I'd like to go further down that road.
The music was created by my friend Jimmy Barry and is awesome. I wish I had enough time to include his other songs. He has a rad soundcloud that you should visit.
Another friend, Evan Johnsen, created some tile art but unfortunately like Jimmy's songs I didn't have time to code them into the game. The next round will see additions from all three.
Every part of the game code was written by hand by myself. There was no external code. The entire game consisted of a module loader, a display list system, an event system and animations, with an audio tag thrown in for good measure. It was a lot of work, but I enjoy knowing a little bit about every step in the process, even if I didn't place in the comp!
All in all it was a great experience and it all ends just in time to continue working on the game for Mozilla's 2013 Game On. So be expecting updates!

"Judge Sumi's personal bias
Ethel C. Fenig
Well, well, well! What a surprise. Not! The blog Freedom Eden has discovered some interesting personal background on Wisconsin's Judge Maryann Sumi, the very judge who issued a temporary restraining order prohibiting Wisconsin Secretary of State Doug La Follette from publishing Act 10, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's (R) law limiting collective bargaining for state employees.
Judge Sumi has a son, Jake Sinderbrand. And Sinderbrand works for...the AFL-CIO and the SEIU: The very unions which would be adversely affected by the law. Naturally, Sinderbrand doesn't think much of Walker, "I wonder how this guy passed kindergarten math" is one of the kindest comments on his facebook page.
So, following the example of those screeching liberals demanding that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas remove himself from trials on the legality of Obamacare because of his wife's opposition to it, shouldn't Judge Sumi excuse herself from the decision? Sumi's son is much more involved with the case than Thomas' wife.
Just askin'............."
__________________________________________________ ____________________
"Judge Sumi's Husband Donated to Three of Badger 14(the FleeBaggers)
by Media Trackers
There was already cause for Judge Maryann Sumi to have recused herself in the collective bargaining lawsuit since her son, Jake Sinderbrand is a former employee of the AFL-CIO and SEIU, now more conflict of interests have been discovered.
Judge Sumi's husband, Carl Sinderbrand donated to the campaigns of three of the "Badger 14″: Dave Hansen, Jim Holperin and Robert Wirch. Additionally Sinderbrand donated to Tom Barrett in his fight against Scott Walker for the governorship.
Judge Sumi's family has a history of strong ties to unions and a pattern of financially supporting only democratic candidates. This is not the impartiality Wisconsin deserves on the bench."

La Follette wants appeal in collective bargaining case dropped
9:14 a.m.
MADISON (AP) - Secretary of State Doug La Follette is asking the Wisconsin Supreme Court to drop the appeal made in his name of a judge's order putting on hold the enactment of the law restricting union bargaining powers.
La Follette asked the high court on Wednesday to withdraw the appeal which had been made in his name by the state Department of Justice. La Follette has since gotten his own attorney because he said he disagreed with the position taken by DOJ and he opposes the law.
The Supreme Court has yet to say whether it will take the appeal, which seeks to undo a judge's ordering barring La Follette from publishing the law and allowing it to take effect.
A spokesman for DOJ declined to comment.

[...] it really eats up SRAM. The CRC tables use about 256 bytes of RAM (from the 1 kbytes the atmega168 has).On my system I have temporarily commented out that section, but I think a good solution would be to use PROGMEM for the CRC tables.
uint8_t OneWire::crc8 ( uint8_t *addr, uint8_t len ){ uint8_t i, j; uint8_t crc = 0; for (i = 0; i < len; i++) { uint8_t inbyte = addr[i]; for (j = 0; j < 8; j++) { uint8_t mix = (crc ^ inbyte) & 0x01; crc >>= 1; if (mix) crc ^= 0x8C; inbyte >>= 1; } } return crc;}

Yes I ran into that too, as I reported elsewhere - the family code for the 18B20 is different from that for the 18S20. (There's a note one the Arduino OneWire page that mentions this.) Just replace the family code in the test (0x28) with the one for the 18B20 (0x10). For the record, the DS1822 thermometer has yet another family code (0x22).

I am a drugstore beauty product addict. It all started when I began hoarding my lunch money and spending it on fashion magazines instead of pizza slices. I would flip through in amazement at all of the beautiful women and mentally take note of all of their makeup looks. One particular ad featuring, then model-of-the-moment Milla Jovovich, prompted my first makeup purchase ever. L'Oreal Drumbeat Red lipstick. I saved up $7, a lot for a fifteen year old with zero income, and headed to my local drugstore. I had to keep it a secret because my Mom wouldn't approve of me wearing lipstick, especially red. I wore that lipstick to my first school dance and wearing red ever since!
Fast forward to my early years of working as a Makeup Artist in a department store. I worked with my best friend and we were surrounded by luxury makeup all day. We would constantly play, tempt each other with new product discoveries and encourage one another to buy things because "you have to have it!" Following a long hard day of prettifying people, we would hop in my car and set out for our secret hideaway, the drugstore beauty department. In a department store $30 might get you a great lipstick, but in a drugstore you'd walk out with a haul of eyeshadows, brushes, lipsticks and foundation. There is something so satisfying about spending a little and getting a lot. It was during this time, the fever-pitch of my bargain makeup addiction, that I discovered some of my "I can't live without" drugstore makeup products.
These products are worth way more than you pay for them, and in this day and age that in itself is a rarity. Here are my tried and tested favorites.
1. Covergirl LashBlast Mascara
I have tried hundreds of mascara brands ranging from dirt cheap to way overpriced. Most of them flake, clump, smear and smudge into my sensitive eyes and all over my face. I don't have the time or the energy to check myself in the mirror a gazillion times to make sure that I don't look like a panda bear.
I have been beyond impressed with the Covergirl LashBlast mascara line with the exception of one. I did not care for the Covergirl LashBlast 24 hour mascara, it smeared and none of the other formulas did. I have been using the newest addition to the LashBlast family, Clump Crusher and I really love it!
Covergirl LashBlast mascara out-performs most of the ones I have tried and at around $6 a tube, that is an amazing value. Most of the time there is a promotion to buy one and get one 50% off. So I almost always grab several in black and also in brown. It doesn't smear, builds my lashes with out clumps and at the end of the night it washes away easily with my Bioderma Crealine H20 Ultra Mild Makeup Remover.
2. Maybelline Lasting Drama by EyeStudio Gel Eyeliner
Every cosmetic company on the market has a gel eyeliner and they all claim they are long-wearing and smudge-proof. My sensitive eyes and crazy expensive contact lenses have proven many of them wrong.
Most gel eyeliners smear and stick to my contacts resulting in permanent marks and even tears! Other gel eyeliners gather into the inner and outer corners of my eyes and form weird globules that eventually run down my face. There have been too many times that I've had conversations with people and then checked myself in the mirror only to see a freakish melting clown looking back at me. It's horrifying and embarrassing!
Of all of the gel eyeliner I have encountered, Maybelline Lasting Drama by EyeStudio has been the best. It doesn't wear all day, but I only apply it morning and after lunch. These eyes love to gobble up eyeliner, so twice a day is amazing! It doesn't flake or smudge into my eyes and I love that the black is a really deep black. I have the three other shades eggplant, charcoal and brown, but they don't wear quite as long for me as the black gel does.
These little pots retail for about $7.99 and even come with a nice precision brush.
3. Milani Blush
Milani is a drugstore brand that really packs a punch. I especially love their blushes. They are richly pigmented, but smooth and long-wearing. Many of their best selling shades are exact dupes for higher priced luxury brands. In particular, Milani Luminoso has been touted as a lower priced alternative to the iconic NARS peachy-pink blush. I have several shades and I love them more than their luxury counterparts. I think they actually have a much nicer texture.
These blushes retail around $6 at most drugstores.
Milani "Runway Eyes" Eyeshadow
In addition to awesome blushes, Milani has a beautiful eyeshadow collection. I have tested Milani shadows side by side with brands like MAC, Smashbox and Makeup Forever, and the quality is exactly the same, if not better. The colors payoff is outrageous for the mere $6 you pay at drugstores. They glide on effortlessly and wear beautifully all day. Some of my favorite shades are French Vanilla, Purple Shock, Just Perfect and Pitch Black.
5. Yes to Tomatoes Clear Skin Acne Repairing Lotion
My skin is not perfect and occasionally I get breakouts. I have combination skin, so some areas are dry and others get quite oily. I have used both over the counter and prescription acne treatments and found many of them overly dry my skin and cause redness and peeling. It's pretty annoying to finally be rid of a blemish but then have to deal with my face being bright red and flaking off.
On a random visit to Bed, Bath and Beyond I stumbled upon "Yes to Tomatoes" in their natural products aisle. Let me say, I am by no means a person who adheres to natural products, I am actually pretty skeptical. But this one intrigued me and for $14.99 I put it in my basket. I had been using Dermalogica Overnight Clearing Gel, and while I loved it, $39 felt like a little too much to spend. That night I slathered on the lightweight "Yes to" gel and hoped for the best. When I woke up I was amazed! My skin was blemish-free and smooth. The texture was remarkably more even and my face didn't feel irritated or tight. No redness and no peeling. I highly recommend this product!
-Yes to Tomatoes Clear Skin Acne Repairing Lotion is 98% natural. It is also paraben-free!
-It contains lycopene, a powerful antioxidant found in tomatoes.
-It uses salicylic acid to combat clogged pores and bacteria.
-Bisabolol and ginger soothe irritated skin and calm redness.

All of them will attend their New Youth Leader Training, formerly JLT and they will attend the OA's Leadership Development Conference. But it is the hands on training that will prove to be valuable in the long run and we will be sitting down for LEADERSHIP 101 classes periodically.
Leadership 101 is my way of developing those young men. We start with the basics.
#1. What is leadership?
Leadership is a process in which you influence people to do something by providing Purpose, Direction, and Motivation to them. If you provide those three things, than you can lead.
#2. What are some basic's in Leadership?
Well first we revisit what we learned in JLT. That leaders must BE, KNOW, and DO.
When we talk about BE we need to talk about CHARACTER.
Character describes a person's inner strength, the BE of BE, KNOW, DO. Your character helps you know what is right; more than that, it links that knowledge to action. Character gives you the courage to do what is right regardless of the circumstances or the consequences. [a Scout is Brave]
You demonstrate character through your behavior. One of your key responsibilities as a leader is to teach Scoutings values, found in the Oath and Law to your Patrol members. The old saying that actions speak louder than words has never been more true than here. Leaders who talk about Trustworthy, Loyal, and Helpful but do not live these values—both in and out of Scouting—send the wrong message, that this "values stuff" is all just talk.
Understanding Scoutings Values and what it takes to be a leader is only the first step. You also must embrace those values and develop leadership skills, living them until they become habit. You must teach the Scouting Values through action and example and help your Patrol members develop leadership skills in themselves.
DO- Leaders do three things—
Influencing: making decisions, communicating those decisions, and motivating people.
Operating: the things you do to accomplish your Troops goals and complete tasks.
Improving: the things you do to make the Troop better.
A good place to get more information of being a Patrol Leader is: http://www.scouting.org/boyscouts/resources/18-800/ Check it out!
Happy Scouting!

Mehdi Zana to speak on Kurdish human rights, Nov. 13
Posted November 10, 2003; 04:04 p.m.
Human rights leader Mehdi Zana, husband of Kurdish dissident Leyla Zana, will discuss the struggle for human rights of Kurds in Turkey and the fight for his wife's release at 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 13, in McCosh 46.
Leyla Zana, a Nobel Peace Prize candidate and winner of the Sakharov Prize for Freedom, was arrested in 1994 and sentenced to 15 years in prison for "separatism." The European Court of Human Rights ruled her trial unfair in July 2001. Amnesty International considers Zana to be a "prisoner of conscience" and has appealed for her immediate and unconditional release.

The place to be....for the Characters, Places & Things
on Television
In a humorous take-off of the sci-fi movie The Crawling Hand (1963),
the series scriptwriters introduced this one-handed creepy crawler whose
household responsibilities included delivering the family mail, answering the
telephone (from his gold, nail-studded box), lighting Gomez's cigars and
sympathetically patting family members with his five fingers when they were
Thing (Gomez's childhood companion) moved about the Addams' bizarre home via a
labyrinth of tunnels which lead to the mail box, a hidden wall vault and to a
myriad of small hinged-topped wooden boxes strategically placed about their
bizarre gothic home.
Conversation with Thing was limited, to be sure, but when hand gestures were not
enough, Thing tapped out his messages with Morse Code.
"Beware the Thing" was posted on the iron gate in front of the Addams house at
001 Cemetery Lane. When the Addams went for a drive in the car, Thing rode in
the glove compartment.
Thing's sweetheart was Lady Finger, a female disembodied "handmaiden" who
belonged to Princess Millicent (Elvia Allman) a distant cousin of the Addams who
lived in England.
Both Jack Vogelin and Ted Cassidy (who played Lurch, the Addams' towering,
zombie butler) were given credit for playing the digital domestic pet. Assistant
director Jack Vogelin was a "hand-in" when Ted Cassidy was to be in the same
scene as Thing.
According to an interview with Joel Eisner in Starlog magazine Ted Cassidy
stated "I played the Thing. I always have. In fact, I did Thing in the reunion
(HALLOWEEN WITH THE NEW ADDAMS FAMILY) but it was never publicized."
Episode No. 23 "Thing is Missing" (3-5-65) found Gomez hiring a private
investigator to search for Thing.
1991, Thing reappeared in The Addams Family: The Movie starring Raul Julia and
Anjelica Huston. In the motion picture version, Thing was free to roam around
the house without the confinement of a box. Actor-magician Christopher Hart who
played thing commented "I'm going to have the most famous hand in the business.
Maybe it will lead to a watch or jewelry commercial or something." Speculating
on Thing's marketability, he said "We'd only be able to sell it at the Pleasure
Chest." (US Magazine 8/91 No. 160/161). The radio controlled robotic version of
Thing used in the movie was designed by special effects man, Alan Munro.
Thing has been merchandised in a number of ways including a model toy by Poynter
Products; a commercial spokeshand in a series of 1970s commercials for Bell
Telephone Yellow Pages advertising the slogan "Let your fingers do the walking,"
and playing a Sunsoft video game in a commercial for "Fester's Quest" during the
Christmas of 1989.
Thing first appeared in the 1954 book of cartoons by Charles Samuel Addams
entitled "Homebodies," where Thing was seen changing records on a Victrola.
In the fall of 1998 the revival series THE NEW ADDAMS FAMILY on the Fox Family
channel continued the adventures of Thing and the Addams family.
TRIVIA NOTE: In 1993, one of the original boxes
used by Thing in the series was auctioned off at Sotherby's for $22,000.
