Genre: Beat 'em up / Brawler
Group DescriptionBeat 'em ups, also known as Brawlers, are action games revolving around melee combat between the protagonist and a number of enemies. The distinction between beat 'em ups and fighting games in the narrow sense of the word is the number of opponents (beat 'em ups rarely feature one-on-one fighting) and the protagonist's ability to move through a level (stage) rather than being confined to one screen.
Traditional beat em ups are side-scrolling 2D games; typically, gameplay mechanics in those games are quite simple, consisting of the protagonist slowly making his way through a large number of enemies. In many brawlers the protagonist is unable to proceed until he has cleared a small portion of the stage of the enemies.
In many of these games, the protagonist has the ability to freely move on the horizontal plane (i.e. move "into the screen"). Such brawlers were often referred to as "3D beat 'em ups". However, with the advent of real-time 3D graphics, the term "3D beat em up" began to refer to brawlers set in a 3D environment.
- Versus fighting games in which the participants are confined to a small stage usually composed of one screen should not be included in this group.
- Games in which protagonists use ranged weapons, guns, magic, and other non-melee alternatives to deal with the enemies, and/or heavily rely on bladed weapons (swords, etc.) should be excluded as well. Use your judgment: if you don't have a feeling that you are actually beating up your opponents, the game in question probably shouldn't belong here.
- Games that focus on platform-style gameplay (jumping, avoiding hazards, etc.) are not allowed.
- Only games that are predominantly brawlers should be included. For the sake of clarity, hybrid games that merge beat 'em up gameplay with other genres (such as Yakuza games) should not be accepted, unless the brawling gameplay is clearly dominant.

To the Editors:
I enjoyed Sandra J. Ackerman's article "A Different Kind of CSI: Crime and Stable Isotopes" in the January–February Science Observer section. In mentioning a topic that she says has "tripped up generations of chemistry students," she also gets tripped up. The sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is not called the atomic mass as she says. It is called the mass number. What a mass spectrometer measures is the atomic mass, which is the mass of the whole atom compared to the mass of an atom of carbon-12. That mass is exactly 12 u, where "u" stands for the unified atomic mass unit. For example, the mass number of carbon-13 is 13, but the atomic mass is 13.00335 u. (This number includes the weight of the electrons, protons and neutrons, and takes into account the binding energy released when the nucleus is formed.) Many textbooks and web sites incorrectly use the old abbreviation "amu" when they are referring to "u."
The history behind the change from "amu" to "u" is interesting. The discovery of the isotopes of oxygen in 1929 led to two different atomic weight tables. Chemists used a table based on the abundance-weighted sum of the atomic masses of the three naturally occurring isotopes of oxygen: oxygen-16, oxygen-17 and oxygen-18. Physicists used a table based on only the atomic mass of oxygen-16. This situation became untenable when chemists and physicists tried to communicate with each other. So they decided to unify the atomic weight table in the early 1960s, and the result is the single table that we now use. The reference for atomic masses was changed to carbon-12 and the new symbol "u" replaced "amu." The term dalton (Da) is sometimes used instead of "u," especially for heavy molecules such as proteins and polymers.
In discussing the isotopes of hydrogen, Ackerman implies that there are only two, the stable isotopes hydrogen-1 (protium) and hydrogen-2 (deuterium). But there is a radioactive isotope, hydrogen-3 (tritium), which is made in trace amounts in the atmosphere (by cosmic rays colliding with the atoms of the atmosphere), as is the radioactive carbon-14 isotope she previously mentions. Mass spectrometers can be used to measure carbon-14, but I am not aware that they are used to measure naturally occurring tritium, because it is present in only minute amounts with the natural steady-state global mass being about 7.3 kilograms. About five times this amount remains from past atmospheric nuclear weapons tests, but this level will slowly decrease due to the radioactive decay of tritium. Of course, large amounts of tritium have been made in nuclear reactors, and concentrations (say in biological fluids) are typically measured using a liquid scintillation counter to detect the beta particles (negative electrons) that are emitted in the decay of tritium.

Buildings Insurance for Blocks of Flats
Freeholders Buildings Insurance
Terrorism Insurance for Blocks of Flats
Legal Expenses Extension for Flats
Directors and Officers Insurance
Engineering Insurance (Lifts & Boilers)
1st Sure are experts in block of flats insurance cover, we arrange buildings insurance for flats, blocks of flats and apartments, both purpose built and flat conversions. We have a wealth of experience in arranging competitive insurance to protect the assets and interests of Residents Associations, Management / RTM Companies, Freeholders and Leaseholders of blocks of flats.
Our bespoke buildings insurance policy provides comprehensive cover for purpose built blocks or houses converted into flats / apartments.
Core covers include:
With extensions to cover:
Our buildings policy is designed to suit the needs of a freeholder, residents association, management company or RTM company in arranging a block insurance policy for purpose build blocks of flats or houses converted into flats / apartments.
Providing bespoke cover for flats and apartments our policy automatically includes:
And to protect the interests of the policyholder / flat owners our policy automatically includes:
The responsibility for insuring the buildings of a block of flats / apartments is normally defined by the lease and expressed under the freeholder's covenants, with a right to recover the cost of such under the service charge provisions. Ultimately failure to do so would be a breach of the lease, leaving the freeholder contractually liable (unless the right to insure has been formally assigned to a management company, residents' association or RTM company etc).
There are a number of reasons why it is appropriate for the buildings policy to be arranged for the entire block. If each flat owner insured the buildings of their flat individually then dealing with a claim would become complex as multiple insurers would be involved and, in the event that one flat had failed to arrange cover, then the matter would be further complicated. In addition, there would be differences in cover between the policies and a number of serious omissions in cover may transpire. As such, the best solution is a policy specifically designed to meet the needs of insuring a block of flats / apartments which includes all the unique covers required to protect all of the parties involved.
The buildings policy extends to provide contents cover in respect of communal areas and landlords' gardening equipment owned by, or the responsibility of, the policyholder. So, for example, the contents of common parts would not cover a push bike or pram left in the stairwell by an occupier. Contents insurance of individual flats, however, remains the responsibility of the individual lessee / owner / occupier.
We automatically include cover for Public / Property Owners Liability with an indemnity limit of £5 Million (reduced to £2 million in respect of terrorism, unless the additional terrorism insurance extension has been selected). Cover automatically extends to include all the parties that may need to be indemnified, including Freeholders, Management Companies, Residents Associations, Managing Agents, RTM Companies and Lessees.
We also automatically include Employers Liability with an indemnity limit of £10 million (reduced to £5 million in respect of terrorism, unless the additional terrorism insurance extension has been selected). We consider this to be an important extension as, while you may not consider that you directly employ any staff, it is easy to fall foul of employment legislation and for a gardener, maintenance worker or cleaner of the communal parts to be deemed an employee. For this reason we automatically include this cover on a contingent basis.
Please note that lessees who let their flats would also need to consider landlords' liability and this needs to be purchased separately.
Whilst this extension comes at a cost, it is intended to protect freeholders from their obligations under the lease. If your lease states that you should insure against all normally available insurance perils or provide comprehensive insurance then, by not purchasing this extension of cover, you may be failing to meet the requirements of the lease.
Since January 2003 terrorism insurance has been offered on an all risks basis, including damage caused by nuclear, biological and radiological means. This cover is designed to reflect the perceived danger of contamination caused by terrorist activities, i.e. the fall-out from a so called "dirty bomb", and is provided by Pool Re, a specifically chosen government backed insurer.
Indemnity is provided up to the sum insured on the buildings policy plus the cover for loss of rent / alternative accommodation. However, we can only provide the Terrorism Insurance extension where we arrange the main buildings policy. If this extension is not selected, then the buildings policy would provide no cover for damage caused by terrorist activity; other than the reduced limits for Public / Property Owners and Employers Liability.
This fairly inexpensive extension provides protection for legal costs and expenses arising in connection with the ownership and leasing of residential property, with a limit of indemnity available from £50,000 to £500,000. We recommend a minimum indemnity of £100,000, increasing for larger blocks.
Legal Expenses cover includes:
Property Protection - cover to pursue a civil action following events which cause or could cause damage to your property, a nuisance or trespass where the amount in dispute exceeds £1,000
Legal Defence for criminal action or civil actions which are taken against you for any non-motor related incidents arising in connection with the business. This includes cover for prosecution under Health and Safety or Data Protection legislation
Contract Disputes - cover is provided to negotiate disputes relating to a contract you have entered into with a customer or supplier for the purchase or sale of goods or services where the amount in dispute exceeds £250
Debt Recovery - cover for your legal rights to recover money and interest due from the sale or provision of goods or services where the amount in dispute exceeds £100
Full or Aspect Enquiries - cover for appeal proceedings in respect of a Full Enquiry and/or Aspect Enquiry carried out by HM Revenue and Customs
Cover starts at only £63 for blocks of less than 25 flats.
Please note that in order to protect the management company, residents association or RTM company they should be noted as the policyholder or joint insured.
This valuable cover protects the directors and officers of a management company, residents' association or RTM company against wrongful acts, errors or omissions in the running of the management of the block of flats for which they are personally liable.
Cover includes loss and defence costs for the insured person in defending an action brought against them, with limits of indemnity ranging from £100,000 to £1,000,000. We recommend a minimum limit of indemnity of £250,000, increasing for larger blocks.
Cover can be extended to include the "entity" (management company, residents' association or RTM company), providing the company with reimbursements for any loss and defence costs which result from a claim for a director's or officer's wrongful acts, errors or omissions.
Directors should be aware that they can be held personally liable for their acts, errors or omissions and that the law does not distinguish between the director of a management company, residents' association or RTM company and that of a major corporation. Surprisingly few directors protect themselves with a Directors and Officers policy, something that is best described as a "Should Have Cover".
Lifts and communal boilers in a block of flats / apartments are required, by law, to be subject to periodic statutory inspections. In the case of passenger lifts this is twice a year and in respect of communal boilers once a year.
We can provide this service as an extension to our policy and, in addition to the statutory inspection, we also provide insurance cover for sudden and unforeseen damage. You would still need a maintenance contract for your lifts / boilers and the insurance cover does not include routine maintenance or wear and tear.
The statutory inspection can be arranged by your maintenance company but they are not normally able to offer insurance cover. Most blocks of flats / apartments, therefore, arrange this through their insurance company or insurance advisor. However, we can only provide the insurance cover for sudden and unforeseen damage where we also arrange the statutory inspection.
As part of the statutory inspection service a site log would be kept at a pre-agreed location (normally the plant room or the top of a lift shaft) and you would be issued with reports after each inspection. These would identify any immediate actions required to maintain safety, items that would need to be considered by the maintenance company in their routine servicing as well as any long term / non-urgent recommendations.
You should also note that communal boilers and boilers in rented flats are also required to have a gas certificate issued annually. This would need to be arranged by a certified "gas safe" gas engineer. The gas safe website at www.gassaferegister.co.uk would provide you with details of qualified engineers in your area
Flats which are owner occupied are not currently normally required to have gas certificate issued annually, albeit they will need to carry a current certificate in order to sell the flat. Some management companies however arrange gas certification on all the flats in a block which is considered to be a good safety measure.
We can advise on all aspects of insurance for blocks of flats and apartments including suitability of cover, calculating the sums insured, the provision of extensions such as terrorism insurance, legal expenses, directors and officers and inspection of lifts and communal boilers. Currently our parent company insures 4% of the blocks of flats buildings in the UK, making us one of the country's largest providers of buildings insurance for flats.
Our team can provide a specific blocks of flats insurance quote for your property. Our
building insurance for flats quote will be one of the most competitive in the uk market.
So in summary, for a blocks of flats insurance quote, or
a building insurance for flats quote, please call a member of our team if you require further assistance.

The giant headline on the poster hanging in the window of AS220's Project Space proclaims: "Antichrist Is Alive, and a Male Jew, Falwell Contends." It reads like an Onion headline, but in fact it's a real clipping from a January 1999 New York Times article that master Providence printmaker Dan Wood reproduces enlarged but otherwise unaltered for his exhibit "Welcome Back to the Twentieth Century!" (93 Mathewson Street, Providence, through September 25).
The Falwell in the headline is, of course, the late "preacher" Jerry Falwell, who also infamously charged that Teletubbies was "damaging to the moral lives of children" because Tinky Winky was gay. Later he said the 9/11 attacks were God's punishment for the allegedly sinful ways of pagans, abortionists, feminists, gays, lesbians, the ACLU, and People for the American Way. His Antichrist prognostications take on new resonance with recent crackpot claims that President Obama is the Antichrist.
Wood's letterpress prints are a mix of bizarre-but-true tabloid tales and American fever dreams. He reproduces a clipping of Bush's helicopter taking off from the US Capitol after President Obama's inauguration. He prints the headline "Texas to Execute Killer of Cheer Leader" over a cross composed from a collage of ladies shoes. Wood prints the slogan "Consumers are the soldiers in the war against recession" atop a field of military tombstones. It echoes President Bush's speech nine days after the September 11 attacks ("Americans are asking, 'What is expected of us?' I ask you to live your lives and hug your children . . . I ask for your continued participation and confidence in the American economy") and in 2006 ("I encourage you all to go shopping more").
Wood is a crackerjack designer and printer, with a knack for catchy combos of words and pictures. That very catchiness can sometimes feel glib, like it's more about outré catch phrases than serious issues. But Wood's point seems best summed up in his reproduction of an excerpt of a 1999 Russell Banks column from the Times. Banks recalls running into a pal from his youth, a small-time gangster, and asking him why he hung around with arty types. Wood highlights the pal's response: "Artists are a lot like gangsters. They both know that the official version, the one everyone else believes, is a lie."
Pippi Zornoza of Providence, who is also included in the lottery show, is having a public conversation about her art with Guggenheim Museum curator Lauren Hinkson at AS220's Empire Street space on Friday, September 17 at 5:30 pm. Admission is free. The 32-year-old is a veteran of Providence's turn of the 21st-century poster explosion (like a number of locals, she was featured in the book The Art of Modern Rock), performs possessed metal music with bands like Bonedust and Vvltvre, and is one of the founders of the decade-old Providence feminist art collective Dirt Palace. Her screenprints combine Art Nouveau, Persian rugs, 18th-century British wallpaper, Byzantine ornament, '60s psychedelia, and heavy metal goth to create trance-inducing patterns around images of vultures and skeletons and lots of little critters. Plus glitter.

Site originally by David Winterbottom (user root).
Wow, didn't really expect you to read this far down. The latest iteration of the site is in open beta. It's a gentle open beta-- not in prime-time just yet. It's being hosted over at UpGuard (link) and you are more than welcome to give it a shot. Couple things:
Find the source file which contains most number of lines in your workspace
This function counts the opening and closing braces in a string. This is useful if you have eg long boolean expressions with many braces and you simply want to check if you didn't forget to close one.
We use `-not -name ".*"` for the reason we must omit hidden files (which unnecessary). We can only show up total lines like this:
find * -type f -not -name ".*" | xargs wc -l | tail -1
The same as the other two alternatives, but now less forking! Instead of using '\;' to mark the end of an -exec command in GNU find, you can simply use '+' and it'll run the command only once with all the files as arguments.
This has two benefits over the xargs version: it's easier to read and spaces in the filesnames work automatically (no -print0). [Oh, and there's one less fork, if you care about such things. But, then again, one is equal to zero for sufficiently large values of zero.]
If you use HISTTIMEFORMAT environment e.g. timestamping typed commands, $(echo "1 2 $HISTTIMEFORMAT" | wc -w)
gives the number of columns that containing non-command parts per lines.
It should universify this command.
find -exec is evil since it launches a process for each file. You get the total as a bonus.
Also, without -n sort will sort by lexical order (that is 9 after 10).
Another way of counting the line output of tail over 10s not requiring pv.
Cut to have the average per second rate :
tail -n0 -f access.log>/tmp/tmp.log & sleep 10; kill $! ; wc -l /tmp/tmp.log | cut -c-2
You can also enclose it in a loop and send stderr to /dev/null :
while true; do tail -n0 -f access.log>/tmp/tmp.log & sleep 2; kill $! ; wc -l /tmp/tmp.log | cut -c-2; done 2>/dev/null
Gives you a nice quick summary of how many lines each of your files is comprised of. (In this example, we just check .c, .h, .php and .pl). Since we just use wc -l to count, you'll just get a very rough estimate of how many lines of actual code there are. Use a more sophisticated algorithm instead if you need to.
I created this command to give me a quick overview of how many file types a directory, and all its subdirectories, contains. It works based off file extension, rather than file(1)'s magic output, because it ended up being more accurate and less confusing.
Files that don't have an ext (README) are generally not important for me to want to count, but you're free to customize this fit your needs.
Find the number of files from each folder
A command to find out what the day ends in. Can be edited slightly to find out what "any" output ends in.
NB: I haven't tested with weird and wonderful output.
extension to tali713's random fact generator. It takes the output & sends it to notify-osd. Display time is proportional to the lengh of the fact.
Finds all C++, Python, SWIG files in your present directory (uses "*" rather than "." to exclude invisibles) and counts how many lines are in them. Returns only the last line (the total).
if you have problem threads problem in tomcat
This command will output the total number of files in a SVN Repository.
Usefull if you want to check if something is applying a dictonary of brute force.
There is a limit to how many processes you can run at the same time for each user, especially with web hosts. If the maximum # of processes for your user is 200, then the following sets OPTIMUM_P to 100.
OPTIMUM_P=$(( (`ulimit -u` - `find /proc -maxdepth 1 \( -user $USER -o -group $GROUPNAME \) -type d|wc -l`) / 2 ))
This is very useful in scripts because this is such a fast low-resource-intensive (compared to ps, who, lsof, etc) way to determine how many processes are currently running for whichever user. The number of currently running processes is subtracted from the high limit setup for the account (see limits.conf, pam, initscript).
An easy to understand example- this searches the current directory for shell scripts, and runs up to 100 'file' commands at the same time, greatly speeding up the command.
find . -type f | xargs -P $OPTIMUM_P -iFNAME file FNAME | sed -n '/shell script text/p'
I am using it in my http://www.askapache.com/linux-unix/bash_profile-functions-advanced-shell.html especially for the xargs command. Xargs has a -P option that lets you specify how many processes to run at the same time. For instance if you have 1000 urls in a text file and wanted to download all of them fast with curl, you could download 100 at a time (check ps output on a separate [pt]ty for proof) like this:
cat url-list.txt | xargs -I '{}' -P $OPTIMUM_P curl -O '{}'
I like to do things as fast as possible on my servers. I have several types of servers and hosting environments, some with very restrictive jail shells with 20processes limit, some with 200, some with 8000, so for the jailed shells my xargs -P10 would kill my shell or dump core. Using the above I can set the -P value dynamically, so xargs always works, like this.
cat url-list.txt | xargs -I '{}' -P $OPTIMUM_P curl -O '{}'
If you were building a process-killer (very common for cheap hosting) this would also be handy.
Note that if you are only allowed 20 or so processes, you should just use -P1 with xargs.
This makes an alias for a command named 'busy'. The 'busy' command opens a random file in /usr/include to a random line with vim. Drop this in your .bash_aliases and make sure that file is initialized in your .bashrc.
Determines the flavor of a shared library by looking at the addresses of its exposed functions and seeing if they are 16 bytes or 8 bytes long. The command is written so the library you are querying is passed to a variable up font -- it would be simple to convert this to a bash function or script using this format.

This is a cool trick to view the contents of the file on /dev/pts/0 (or whatever terminal you're using), and also send the contents of that file to another program by way of an unnamed pipe. All the while, you've not bothered saving any extra data to disk, like you might be tempted to do with sed or grep to filter output.
I took java to make the find command simpler and to state that it works for any language supported by cpp.
cpp is the C/C++ preprocessor (interprets macros, removes comments, inserts includes, resolves trigraphs). The -fpreprocessor option tells cpp to assume the input has already been preprocessed so it will only replace comment lines with blank lines.
The -L 1 option tells xargs to launch one process for each line, indeed cpp can only process one file at the time...

| The average Sri Lankan eats 116 coconuts every year -- yet folks living in this tropical paradise are just half as likely as Americans to get pudgy. The reason: Coconut oil is packed with medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) that prod the liver to burn body fat 50 percent faster than normal. When women eat two tablespoons of coconut oil, six ounces of fresh coconut meat or 10 ounces of coconut milk daily, they can effortlessly shed up to three pounds every month, says Mary Enig, Ph.D., author of "Eat Fat, Lose Fat."

| Yoga is a wildly popular stress-buster and insomnia cure in Austria (folks there don't just practice at home and in classes -- they also go on yoga retreats and holidays!). And according to University of Pennsylvania researchers, practicing yoga for as little as 20 minutes daily banishes insomnia as effectively as sleeping pills, plus it dampens anxiety, chronic stress and blue moods for 60 percent of women within two weeks.
Yoga's gentle stretches and controlled breathing aids production of GABA -- a brain hormone that lulls the central nervous system into a calm, relaxed state, the study authors say.

| Indonesia grows, and consumes, more ginger than almost any other country in the world. And the locals don't just toss this flavorful root into stir fries -- they use it to make ginger tea, candy, bread and a host of other tasty treats. They've always consider this herb a potent heart tonic -- and now studies back them up. According to Stanford researchers, a daily dose of ginger can cut your production of artery-clogging fats called triglycerides by 27 percent. Plus, it's twice as effective as aspirin at preventing dangerous blood clots -- ginger dampens inflammation, which is a key step in stopping the formation of clots, Stanford researchers say. The study-proven dose: 1/2 tablespoon daily.

| In India, turmeric isn't just a flavorful spice -- it's a medicinal staple and one of their go-to herbs when blood sugar problems flare. And now research at India's Gujarat University confirms that turmeric's active ingredient, called curcumin, switches on the genes that keep blood glucose levels in check. This compound also helps the pancreas' ability to make insulin when sugar levels creep up. You must take at least half a teaspoon daily in order to see the benefits so start thinking about adding them to your meat and veggie dishes. A little dash also tastes great on eggs and rice.

| These edible fungi are considered to be both food and medicine in Japan, and the average Japanese woman noshes at least eight pounds of them every year. Adding at least half a cup of mushrooms to your daily diet could cut your cholesterol levels as much as 30 percent, according to Penn State studies. The reason? Mushrooms are packed with antioxidants that dampen the liver's production of artery-clogging fats, the study authors say.
Bored of button mushrooms? Criminis (which look like coffee-colored button mushrooms) have a richer, earthier flavor. Portobellos are great grilled, stuffed, or used as a meat substitute in burgers and sandwiches. And maitakes and shiitakes have a stronger, smoky flavor that can jazz up veggie and pasta dishes beautifully.

| Soaking in a hot mustard bath is a traditional English remedy for tight, achy muscles. Think that's a weird (and smelly) proposition? Mustard actually has healing plant compounds that draw toxins out through pores, improve circulation, relax tight muscles and speed healing of damaged tissues, says James F. Balch, M.D., co-author of "Prescription for Natural Cures."
To do: Mix 2 cups epsom salts, 1/4 cup baking soda and 1/4 cup dry mustard powder in a jar, then add 1/4 cup of this healing mix to the hot running water as you fill your tub. Soak 20 minutes, then rinse.

| It started as a simple German folk remedy, but science now proves its effectiveness. According to Stanford University researchers, sipping two cups of this soothing brew daily helps ease bloating and belly pain within 24 hours. Chamomile calms the adrenals, reducing their production of cortisol -- a stress hormone that's notorious for sabotaging digestion and triggering gas formation, belly spasms and painful spasms, explains Dr. Balch.
According to a study in the "Journal of Pharmacological Sciences," sipping chamomile tea can rev up your brain's production of enkephalins -- painkilling hormones that also help chase away blue moods.

| Russians reach for this tasty herb when they want to stamp out colds, the flu or pretty much anything. Turns out it's not just hocus pocus! Research at the University of Florida in Gainesville suggests just jazzing up your diet with a daily clove of garlic could cut your risk of viral infections as much as 43 percent -- even if you're surrounded by sniffling, sneezing loved ones. Garlic is packed with allicin -- an immunity-boosting sulfur compound that sabotages the growth and spread of invading germs, study authors say.

| As many as 80 million Chinese now use this ancient healing therapy to prevent headaches. According to a study Taiwan's Kaohsiung Medical University, daily acupressure treatments (which feel like massages, but which target specific nerve clusters in the skin) outperform prescription muscle relaxants for folks struggling with chronic tension headaches.
"Acupressure prompts the release of powerful painkilling hormones called endorphins, plus it relaxes scalp muscles and soothes overactive pain nerves," explains Mehmet C. Oz, M.D., co-author of "You: The Owner's Manual."
Can't make it to the accupuncturist every day? Give yourself a five-minute, all-over foot and hand massage (using a firm kneading motion) -- then focus on massaging just your toes and the webbing between your fingers and thumbs (areas that contain key acupressure points for your head) for an additional three minutes.

| People in Finland are the biggest coffee consumers worldwide -- they chug an average of 1,640 cups per year each (and that's the full-strength stuff). When java was first introduced to Finland in the 18th century, it was only sold in pharmacies and was praised as a great cure for depression. Harvard research now backs up that claim. Their studies suggest sipping two cups of caffeinated coffee daily can cut your risk of blue moods by 34 percent -- and enjoying three or more cups daily cuts your risk of depression 42 percent or more. According to the study, coffee's mix of caffeine and antioxidants stimulates the brain to produce more powerful, natural antidepressant hormones such as serotonin and dopamine.

Wow. An update here. Argh. I'd always intended to make more use of this, but I never got around to it. Been spending the last few weeks getting Gentoo up and running on my laptop--works just like a charm. The 2.6 kernels are absolutely a thing of beauty.
At any rate, development on Scoped as slowed somewhat, the website's currently b0rked, and I'm working on getting it revamped. At some point, I'll fix it, and when I do, development will resume, although the code base is in a pretty sloppy state right now: I'm about halfway through the very, very large migration of all of the 2d rendering code (console, fonts, etc) to their own class, which is covered with hidden dependencies. I'm not quite sure how I'm going to finish it yet. And, not to mention, since Linux is my primary platform now, I'll need to make it cross-platform... *grins* SDL here we come!

So, I gotta 59 year old dishwasher.
My Boss has worked closely with our county FSU (field supervision unit) offering work to typically hard to employ fresh out of jail folk for a very long time. So this one guy, Mike. Went to jail when he was 17 for being drunk and fighting. Decides it would be fun to light his mattress on fire. Ends up in a locked cell with years and years of paint layers on the walls and the mattress he set on fire. Can you say toaster oven? He is burned a lot. He is put in a medically induced coma for 8 months. Endured multiple surgeries and then ..
was obviously charged for his crimes by the state. Arson, destruction of state buildings, endangering corrections officials and attempted escape. Underage drinking, possession of alcohol by a minor and public drunkenness. He got a lot of years. He was farmed out (as the kids say) to Kentucky to the big for hire prisons Vermont contracts with. He re-offended a few times while there, still the 17 year old fighting, it seems.
So Mike stayed with us much longer than the normal FSU dishwasher. He became my trainer of new dishwashers. He listened to all of our hunting stories. He had never gotten a chance to hunt. So I signed him up and took him to hunters safety. The instructor is a friend and duck hunting partner of mine and I love verbally abusing him in front of 9 year olds. He got himself a used black powder rifle and I took him to the range to practice. I kinda turned into some sort of mentor for this old feller.
He went White Tail Deer Hunting for the first time today. He did not get a deer. He did not shoot at a deer. He did see a deer. We jumped a nice buck. 65 degrees and sunny. I had him walking in front of me with his rifle. I saw the Buck, that was bedded on a ledge above us watching us walk across a long slow incline, when it twitched an ear. I gave a Ssshhhh and Mike froze but as I was in back I could not point out the Buck to him. He couldnt see it and after an hour long second the Buck exploded up like a Ruffed Grouse and actually angled to us as it ran away!
Mike was dumfounded, he never even was able to lift his rifle and the deer was gone. He was so happy! You would have thunk he just got the state record! He said after so many years of being in jail. Never even seeing forest. That now he could walk through and get a chance to see a Buck was just amazing for him. He was so thankful.
I did walk his A$$ off and brought him quite a few miles into the Green Mountain National Forrest He had a great day.
This is Mike on the ride home
Take a kid hunting, even if they are 59

Focus on Funds
Van Eck Proposes ETF That Pays Investors In Gold or Silver
Looking for something new in the ETF universe? According to reports today from IndexUniverse, firms have filed regulatory paperwork proposing a number of new funds, including two that pay investors with bars of gold or silver bullion.
Talk about the Midas touch. According to a report by Cinthia Murphy, Van Eck, the sponsor behind the Market Vectors ETFs, has proposed two physically-backed precious metal funds -- the Market Vectors Redeemable Gold Trust and the Markets Vectors Redeemable Silver Trust -- that literally attempt to provide investors an opportunity to invest in gold or silver through the trusts while being able to take delivery of either in exchange for their shares.
This is not the first time such an idea has been floated. According to Murphy, Axel Merk proposed a similar innovation in a gold fund he registered last year.
In other news, Deutsche Bank filed regulatory documents proposing a fund giving investors direct access to actual China A shares, which so far have only been available to ETF investors with significant constraints.
And finally, writer Paul Britt breaks down for investors the elements behind the latest ETF that explicitly uses options in its strategy - the U.S. Equity High Volatility Put Write Index Fund (HVPW) from ALPS.

UMD to install data devices beneath Lake Superior
DULUTH, Minn. (AP) — University of Minnesota Duluth researchers are installing technology more often used in oceans on the bottom of Lake Superior this week.
Researcher Jay Austin says the "moored proofing platforms" will gather data year-round, which hasn't been possible before due to the difficulty of getting out on the lake during the winter.
The robot-like platforms will detect things like temperature, depth, currents, light intensity and amount of oxygen, the Duluth News Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/O2wXp2 ). Austin says that's data not being gathered right now.
The platforms are funded by a nearly half-million-dollar federal grant.

Chocolate cupcakes get a fun upgrade with a gooey-sweet salted-caramel center.
If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.
If you do not have a decorating bag, you can use a resealable freezer or food-storage plastic bag. Simply snip a small opening at one bottom corner of the bag before piping frosting.
If you cannot find salted caramels, you can substitute regular caramels and sprinkle a small amount of fleur de sel sea salt or coarse sea salt on top of each.

Give this beef short rib recipe a little love early in the day for a hearty dinner later, vegetables and all. Slow cooking makes the meat nice and tender.
Browning the short ribs before slow cooking gives the dish a rich, savory flavor and removes some of the fat.
This is a terrific meal-in-one, but some hearty bread and sliced fresh pears are easy additions.
Short ribs are trimmed from narrow beef rib and short plate sections. They're tasty but tough, so slow cooking is great for tenderizing them.

Architectural Pottery S3 Planter/Container
VesseL USA
VesseL USA Inc. was founded in 1998 to revive stunningly simple planters and other ceramic designs that brought acclaim to the Architectural Pottery Collection, a Los Angeles company founded in 1950 by Max and Rita Lawrence. Prominent mid-century LA architects such as Richard Neutura and Pierre Koenig favored the pottery line for spare, geometrically ordered residential gardens and commercial buildings. Pieces from the Architectural Pottery Collection were exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York as early as 1951.
VesseL USA is the sole licensor of the award-winning Architectural Pottery Collection, including hand-crafted planters, containers and garden sculpture. Original designs are commissioned and produced by VesseL USA from designer specifications.
The career of California ceramics designer La Gardo Tackett (1911-1992) had a chance beginning due to an unlikely friendship between an LA graphics designer, Lou Danziger, and a New Jersey meat packer, Max Lawrence, who shared a love of modernism. In 1949 while Tackett was teaching at the California School of Art in Pasadena, Danziger told Lawrence about Tackett and his students making planters and sculptures that looked like "white doughnuts, halved avocados and stacked pyramids". Lawrence's wife decided to view their work and within months the couple began mass-producing the ceramics and Architectural Pottery was born. When the catalog was released in 1950, architects began ordering the pieces and MoMA selected most of the items for its 1951 Good Design exhibition. La Gardo Tackett became famous for his hourglass-shaped designs.View other products by La Gardo Tackett

Author and social activist Barbara Ehrenreich to speak at Binghamton University
Author and social activist Barbara Ehrenreich will speak at 4 p.m. Friday, September 7, in the Watters Theater of the Fine Arts building, located on the Binghamton University campus. Her talk, titled "Dancing in the Streets: The Human Need to Party," is free and open to the public.
Ehrenreich, whose most recent book is titled Dancing in the Streets: A History of Collective Joy, explores the human need for public celebration – and why we need to fulfill it. According to Ehrenreich, since prehistoric times, people all over the world have engaged in rituals and festivities involving music, dancing, face-painting, feasting and often drinking. But during the last few centuries, that joyous tradition has been suppressed, leaving us with few opportunities for public celebration.
Ehrenreich is one of America's foremost social commentators and cultural historians. Her 18 books include For Her Own Good: Two Centuries of the Experts Advice on Women, Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America, and Bait and Switch: The (Futile) Pursuit of the American Dream. Her ongoing social activism includes the newly created United Professionals http://www.unitedprofessionals.org for "unemployed, underemployed, and anxiously employed white collar workers."
She has received numerous awards and grants, including the Sydney Hillman Award for Journalism, a Ford Foundation Award for Humanistic Perspectives on Contemporary Society, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and a grant for Research and Writing from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.

Who is the current president?
What is today's date?
What is 100 minus 7, minus 7, minus 7?
That's not an Arizona State University admissions test.
Those are the three questions that USC standout receiver Robert Woods apparently answered correctly when forced by the Trojans' sideline medical staff Thursday night during a standard concussion-syndrome test.
Woods passed without a No. 2 pencil or a calculator, standing upright and smiling. This was just moments after he staggered, wobbled, spun and then collapsed face-first at midfield, seemingly headed for the wrong sideline. He had just been part of a brain-jarring, helmet-to- helmet hit while laying down a block on a punt return in the first quarter against Utah.
The 20-year-old was slapped on the back and allowed by those in charge of protecting him from himself to go back into the game, and he eventually yanked in a touchdown pass during USC's come-from-behind win.
So all's good?
Lane Kiffin should have his head examined.
after he staggered, wobbled, spun and then collapsed face-first at midfield
Good enough for me. People have been knocked loopy before and somehow survived
That sounds similar to the concussion test I was told I took after the first one I got in high school.
Lane Kiffin should have his head examined

GYRE Expedition Provides Opportunity for Marine Debris Research, Wildlife Sightings
Posted On June 11, 2013 by Nick Mallos
Most people visit the small town of Seward, Alaska, to take a half-day glacier and wildlife cruise through Kenai Fjords National Park. I arrived in Seward to board the R/V Norseman to depart for Expedition GYRE.
Organized by the Alaska Sea Life Center and the Anchorage Museum, our 14-member team comprised of scientists, artists and filmmakers has a shared vision: We want to establish a new dialogue on marine debris from the nexus of science, art and education and devise strategies for disseminating information to broad audiences, globally.
The scale and magnitude of Alaska's marine debris problem is unlike any other I've experienced. The state's 45,000-mile coastline has myriad coves and pocket beaches that capture massive quantities of debris, underscoring the fact that even the most isolated areas of our planet are not immune to the problems of ocean trash.

Potty Training
My son is 18 months old. He grabs himself when he poops and sometimes runs to his changing table when I ask him has he pooped. My question is when would be a good time to start potty training him and
what are a few different approaches I can take.
13th May 2012 02:12 AM #2
Interesting cues that your son is giving you. I find that most children aren't really ready to be potty trained until they are 2 1/2 - 3 years old. My guess is that he doesn't like the feeling of the poop coming out or being in a dirty diaper and he wants to be cleaned quickly. At 18 months that would be my guess.
Here's an article on How To Potty Train in One Day, and another article on Elimination Communication in case either of those interest you.
Hope this helps.
Warm regards,

Thanks for the help

Yes I agree with Kate that, in my opinion, 18 months is a bit young to start potty training. The exception to this is those who use Elimination Communication - I have a friend who started her daughter with Going Diaper-less at 6 months (this approach tends to work best if you start at a very young age) and by 18 months old she was potty trained. Throughout this time by friend kept a gentle parenting approach to the potty training. In the past, young children were sometimes disciplined to get them to potty train earlier - and this is one reason why many parents now wait until their toddler is about 3.
Best wishes,

As you watched your friend use the "Elimination Communication" method, how did this work? Did she wear the child a lot so she could pick up on the child's cues? Was it very time intensive? Were there lots of accidents? If the child god diaper-less at 6 months, does the parent have to be highly invested in the process (i.e. it takes a lot of time)?
I'm curious as I haven't known anyone, personally who potty trained their children with the Elimination Communication method.
Warm regards,

Hi Kate,
Well the reason my friend actually chose to start Elimination Communication was because her baby had quite bad nappy rash so she was leaving the nappy off a lot anyway (so that the air could help to heal the nappy rash). Once she began to do this, my friend quickly began to pick up cues from the baby (noises and facial expressions) and then she would go and hold the baby over the loo. There were accidents but not as many as you might think! My friend did baby wear - and this certainly helped her to pick up the cues. My friend says it wasn't particularly time intensive because that is the level of attention she was giving her baby anyway - so all she had to do was keep a particular look out for the 'toilet cues' and then head speedily to the loo!
It certainly seemed to work for them.
Best wishes,

Hi LJ,
That's interesting information. Thanks for sharing.
And on that note, my 20 year old daughter shared a video with me today called "Babies". It's a look at 4 different mothers and babies from 4 different cultures. It documents the babies from their first breath through the first year.
Some babies don't wear nappies and it's interesting to see how the parents deal with this. It's a wonderful movie and one I'd recommend if you can find it at your library.
Here's the movie trailer.

Well much to my surprise I received 6 emails about my last diary entry. Greets to Hugo, Kaushik, Sean, Chromatic, Raph, and Scotty. Seems someone agrees about my ideas for discussion forums. I've looked closer at this, kuro5hin, and technocrat.net. I think the best features of discussion forums in general are 1) the nested layout, and 2) a moderation/rating system that puts the most interesting stuff at the top. The reason nobody posts on zdnet (and other traditional news rags) is that their discussion software blows chunks. The index layout (just listing the subject and poster) is almost totally useless. I am absolutely not going to load one page for each message.
So I've written a rather lengthy piece on the "future of open source". Since babbling about OSS economics, motivations, and morals seems to be all the rage, I thought I'd jump into the game and do something different at the same time. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it. Perhaps I'll submit it to kuro5hin and/or avogato and see if they'll post it. (if you run a news site and would be interested in this, contact me) Gotta finish it first. It's hard to project more than about 25 years in the future, since technological (hardware) developments will play such a crucial role. Then predictive power always decreases with the distance into the future. I hope there are a few good ideas in there that people will pick up on, and allow them to start profitable businesses. Half of prediction is in creating the future, after all.
I'm excited for Titan AE to open next week. I'm a massive scifi and anime junkie, and I really hope it doesn't suck. I didn't see Battlefield Earth (though I read the book), I'm kinda afraid too. Maybe on video.
does anyone else get sick to their stomach when they hear Metallica come on the radio...and then change the station? I wonder how many fans Metallica has/will lose over this whole napster fiasco. Such a shortsighted move on their part. #1 rule of being a celebrity: don't attack your fans. They are your livelihood.

'Good Luck Charlie' Finale: Good Night, and Good Luck
Goodbye, "Good Luck Charlie."
From the moment I met "Good Luck Charlie" star Bridgit Mendler in March of 2013, I figured the show's luck would someday run out.
The show's chief appeal is to teens, tweens and tots, but last year she already seemed like a poised Disney leading lady headed for even bigger things.
The now 21-year-old actress has done voice work for "The Secret World of Arrietty" (2010) and starred in the TV movie "Lemonade Mouth" (2011). As she wraps up her run as "Good Luck" star Teddy Duncan, no doubt her schedule will be freed up for more. On March 21, she's set to appear in "Muppets Most Wanted." Hey, Amy Adams starred in a muppet movie once. Things have worked out for her.
I was a never a fan of the Emmett character on "Good Luck"–but not because of the actor who plays him (Micah Williams), who has tried to give the role a wonky cool. I just didn't like the fact that the nerd–who has a major unrequited crush on Teddy–never had a real shot and getting the girl, who winds up dating a couple of lunks and hunks, one of whom cheats on her. Why not give the nerd a chance?
On its way out the door, "Good Luck Charlie" did show some edge by introducing a same-sex couple without fanfare. Adults were a key part of the appeal of "Good Luck Charlie." As Amy Duncan, actress Leigh-Allyn Baker's neediness, bossiness and attempts to cling to her lost youth grounded the light-as-air sitcom in something resembling reality, and made it something adults could watch with kids without dozing off.
"Good Luck" was always a show about becoming an adult. Teddy was always testing the rules of mature conduct with her parents even as she was teaching them, via video, to Charlie. Now that Teddy's a college-bound adult, it's time for her to learn and test the rules by herself.
Good night, and good luck, "Good Luck Charlie."
What did you think of tonight's finale? Leave your thoughts in the comments.

ArtsOC, ArtsOC's Orange County Arts Awards, CHOC Children's, CHOC Follies, Gloria Zigner, Gloria Zigner & Associates, Helena Modjeska Cultural Legacy Award
Gloria Zigner is an amazing woman, who I have known for nearly 30 years and during that time, no matter what I was doing, she was always kind to me. She had her PR business when I met her, and always had a full contingent of clients. I, at the time, was singing with and working as business manager for the Master Chorale of Orange County, which later became the William Hall Master Chorale. I was learning about PR, advertising, marketing, fundraising, etc., and with a bachelor's degree in music education (I had left teaching music because of severe cut-backs), it was a stretch for me. During that period, Gloria was there for me, offering advice and support.
Later, when I became editor of Newport Beach [714] magazine and, later still, executive editor of Coast magazine and society editor for the Orange County Register, Gloria never faltered with her encouragement and support for me. By that time, she was society editor of Orange Coast Magazine and we were covering many of the same events. Our publications were often at odds with each other back then, but our friendship never faltered.
Recently, my life took a different turn when I started my own PR business, Donna Bunce & Associates Public Relations. Gloria was right there cheering me on. She just never shows a jealous side, and I love her for that.
So, with that being said, I was delighted to hear that this famous redhead was recently honored by Arts OC at its annual Orange County Arts Awards with the Helena Modjeska Cultural Legacy Award for her stellar work as founder and executive producer of the CHOC Follies, now it its 15th year. The annual stage show fundraiser, which combines professional and local community talent, is great fun and has raised more than $6 million for CHOC Children's. But, Gloria's greatest contribution to the cause is as its cheerleader. She is single-handedly responsible for getting business, civic and society leaders on stage singing and dancing, who never thought they would be there. You just can't say "no" to her! I know. I sang and danced in the first two Follies!
So, in closing, dear Gloria. I know you don't need luck – you make it! – I wish you continued success in raising money for CHOC Children's, a cause you wholeheartedly believe in, and many more years with that wonderful man in your life. We love you too, Irv! And, thank you for being a mentor and friend all these years. I wouldn't be who I am today but for you!

Discussion The Lebanon Cedar is the national emblem of Lebanon. As a result of long exploitation, few old trees remain in Lebanon, but there is now an active program to conserve and regenerate the forests. The Lebanese approach has emphasized natural regeneration rather than planting. Extensive replanting is taking place in Turkey, where approximately 300 square kilometres (74,000 acres) of cedar are planted annually. Widely planted as ornamental tree in parks and large gardens, often planted in avenues, and large lawns.

Psychologist Carol Gilligan to address 'The Birth of Pleasure'
Posted March 14, 2000; 02:35 p.m.
Writer and psychologist Carol Gilligan will lecture on The Birth of Pleasure on April 6 at 4:30 p.m. in McCosh 10 on the Princeton University campus. Gilligan, named one of the 25 most influential people in the United States by Time Magazine, is known for her research in gender issues, beginning with her book "In a Different Voice" in 1982. Since then, Gilligans research has led to the founding of the Harvard Project on Womens Psychology and Girls Development and the publication of five more books.
Gilligans current research extends to studies of courage and resistance in young boys, the power of education and the role of gender in social change. She is the first Patricia Albjerg Graham Professor of Gender Studies at Harvard University.
On April 7 from 10 a.m. to noon, Gilligan and Princeton Trustee Marsha Levy-Warren, Class of 1973, will lead an informal discussion in 210 Dickinson. Her lecture is sponsored by the Program in the Study of Women and Gender.
