When you look exhausted, it doesn't matter whether you were up all night working or dancing—dark circles, puffy eyes, and wan skin look the same either way. Try these easy ways to fake it until you wake it.
Scrub right
The repair work that's supposed to happen in the skin at night includes the natural whisking away of dead cells that leave your complexion looking dull and ashen. A good face exfoliation in the morning can do much the same thing quickly (and inexpensively)—just be sure to choose one with soft round grains rather than a chemical agent such as glycolic or lactic acid, which can increase sun sensitivity and leave you a little blotchy.
Chill out
It may not sound appealing, but it works: A cool shower stimulates circulation in your body and can have a toning effect on your face, says Jeannette Graf, assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City—and research has shown that lowering the temperature just a few degrees can make you feel more awake. (Consider using a peppermint body wash, too, since multiple studies have shown that its scent increases alertness and even improves performance on cognitive tasks.)
Moisturize well
Lack of sleep can compromise your skin's barrier and make it tough for it to retain water. "That dehydration then accentuates any fine lines you already have, which just makes you look even more tired," says Ranella Hirsch, assistant clinical professor of dermatology at Boston University Medical Center.
Subtract puffiness
The old tea-bag-on-the-eyes trick works for a reason: The caffeine constricts blood vessels, the tannins reduce inflammation, and the pressure tamps down the puff. But if that sounds like a pain (or a mess), a chilled compress is just as effective. "Cucumber slices, an eye gel you keep in the fridge, or a bag of frozen peas all work the same way," says Anne Chapas, assistant professor of dermatology at New York University Medical School. "It's really the cold that shrinks the capillaries and stimulates lymphatic drainage." (She uses the peas on patients to take down swelling.)
Get moving
Still bloated? Try ten jumping jacks followed by ten deep breaths (then repeat). "It sounds kind of hokey, but I swear, it really works," says Leslie Baumann, professor of dermatology and director of the University of Miami Cosmetic and Research Institute at the Miller School of Medicine. Because vessels in the lymphatic system lack their own muscles, the body relies on external movement and breathing to keep fluids from pooling in areas like under the eyes. "Because of the emphasis on your breathing, yoga is great for dispersing these fluids, too," Baumann says. "But when you're already running late, jumping jacks will only take a minute."
Don't OD on foundation
When skin is looking lifeless, the answer is actually less foundation rather than more. "Choose a creamy formula that contains light-reflecting particles and apply with your fingers, so it can really melt into the skin," says makeup artist Aaron De Mey. "And be sparing—your face will look much more awake if you can still see you skin." If you wear powder, he recommends applying it only to the chin, forehead, and the sides of the nose. "Having a little glow on your cheeks and the center of the nose is more natural," he explains.
Curl your lashes
Makeup artists are pretty much unanimous about the best way to wake up your eyes. For the most fresh-eyed look, "hold the curler as close to the base of the lashes as possible," says makeup artist Chrisanne Davis. "You only need to squeeze once to maximize the curve and length."
Lighten up
While there are a zillion eye creams that promise to help dark circles, none of them offer an instant fix. Concealer, on the other hand, is a sure thing—so start by choosing a creamy formula that is slightly lighter than your skin (but be careful: Go more than one shade lighter, and it can look ghostly). Davis recommends applying it after foundation—"since you want to use the bare minimum, and your makeup will have already given you a head start." Cover just the dark areas, not the entire under-eye, and resist the urge to overblend.
Pop a pill
If your eyes look bloodshot and puffy even if you went to bed by 10 o'clock, the culprit could be allergies. "I've probably recommended more Claritin than any pharmacist," jokes Hirsch, who advises her patients with recurrent puffy eyes or dark circles to consider taking an antihistamine as a preventive measure; you should know in a week or two if it's working on circles.
Don't skip your lids
If you're focused on undereye circles and puffiness, it's easy to look right past another dead giveaway of exhaustion: pink eyelids. Baumann tells patients to dab them with a cotton ball soaked in (of all things) Afrin. "Nasal sprays contain something called oxymetazoline, which addresses both redness and swelling," she says—and notes that it's particularly effective when you've been crying. If they still look pink, makeup artist Troy Surratt recommends applying an eye-shadow base. "One that's peachy will neutralize blue, purple, and gray tones," he says. In a pinch, yellow-based concealer will work on purple circles—just be sure to pick a formula that isn't thick or drying.
Add sparkle
While makeup artists agree that you generally want to avoid iridescence around the eyes when you're tired ("It just draws attention to the area," says De Mey), there's one exception: "Put just a tiny touch of shimmer cream right in that little hollow in the inner corners of the eyes. Use a golden color if you have dark skin, silvery or pearlescent if you're pale, and then blend well with a Q-tip," instructs De May. "It instantly makes you look refreshed."
Draw the liner
Once you've done everything you can do for the skin on and around the eyes, pull out your eye pencil. "Take a nude-colored pencil and line the inside rim of the lower lid—it will cover any redness and brighten the eye. It's an old Hollywood trick that really works," says Giordano. To define your upper lashes, "go with something a little less severe than black, like a charcoal or a chocolate brown, and push the point into the lash line as you go," says Davis. "Then wing it outward and upward just the tiniest bit at the end—it really does have the effect of opening up the eyes."
Blush brightly
When you consider that another synonym for tired is "drained," adding color to your face with blush makes perfect sense. Makeup artist Susan Giordano likes cream formulas in shades like sheer wine, which, when blended, will "create a transparent flush like when you pinch your cheeks. A light layer of bright blush that has melted into your skin looks more natural than lots and lots of a lighter pastel," she says. De May recommends applying the color slightly higher on the face than usual when you need to look more awake. "Use your fingers to rub it on the highest point of the apples, right over the edge of the orbital bone," he says. "Blurring that line a little will help draw attention away from any darkness or puffiness there."
Whiten your eyes
The most artful makeup in the world won't do squat if your eyes are bloodshot. Usually caused by dehydration, it's easily treated with drops like Visine, which contain ingredients that will shrink the blood vessels. If you're willing to spend a little more (and you don't wear contact lenses), Graf swears by Collyre Bleu from Alcone. "They have the slightest blue tint that also counteracts any yellowness you may have in the eyes and makes them incredibly white," she says. "I use them before I go on TV." Just don't use whitening drops every day—opthalmologists warn that over time, they can have a rebound reddening effect.

nwwd necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 12 diseños de 6 diseñadores freelance.
Mode Web
Hi, I am the Lead Developer, we are young and dynamic web development firm specialing in Website Development, Ecommerce, and Salesfore Integration. We do design aswell but our core competance is development, but I still would like website design mentioned on the site as one of our services.
Our market is small to medium sized businesses. We want it too apeal to business owners. We want a professional, clean and "spacey" look. We also want to give the impression of authority in our profession but we dont want it too look boring.
OK, we just need the layered PSD of the home page and say one other page if its a "simple", homepage. I have attached my own efforts from a modified template we had but we feel it isnt strong enough for us to use as a company design. I like the colours in the attached design and would like to keep along the Blue lines as this gives a trustworthy impression I think. Maybe a splash of reddy-pink? I think that will look good. Also, just to trying and give the most info possible but we may have some interactive elements on the homepage also, so if designers could somehow factor this in, its not a must however by any means, the interactive elements would be your usual sliders etc.
I think when you look at the attached you will see where we want to go.
Thanks, if you need anymore info just let me know.
All the best.

Welcome to VIRTUAL Feedback, your one-stop source for popular culture, technology, and the art world…
"The Avengers" are back, but this time, on home video. Fans of the movie certainly won't need a primer. Clearly, it was the most ambitious superhero film to date (the successful convergence of four Marvel universe films) and broke box office numbers this past summer. But good luck finding the 4-disc set which includes a Blu-ray 3D disc, Blu-ray, DVD, digital copy, and music download.
Target offered it in this week's circular for $19.99, but strangely, at many locations, this collection could not be found on the shelves (or was listed as "out of stock" on its website). Of course, you could always purchase it from Amazon, though Target's offering the best put-it-in-my-hand rate. A sales representative told me the shipment could be in by the weekend, and he cautioned that he'd never seen as much interest in a DVD release before. Translation: they're going to fly off the shelves quickly, and if you don't get your copy by Saturday, you'll pay retail price – at Target. Best Buy, Walmart, and plenty of online stores have "The Avengers" collection, but Target's giving you the best bang for your buck, hence, the supply-and-demand issue.
While you're reliving "The Avengers," there's also the return of Showtime's wonderfully addictive series, "Dexter," about a serial killer who takes out the bad guys. As an audience we've watched Dexter Morgan work overtime to protect his secret, and usually things work out for the best. The new promos seem to suggest that things are going to get quite complicated for our anti-hero. Season Seven premieres Sunday, Sept. 30 at 9 p.m. And then there's J.K. Rowling's highly anticipated novel, "The Casual Vacancy." What's the buzz on this? It's simple. Rowling has thrilled millions of children (and adults) with her Harry Potter books and "The Casual Vacancy" carries the weight of very, very high expectations. Here's the official book description: When Barry Fairbrother dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.
Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…. Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the town's council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen.
Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations? Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling's first novel for adults. Rowling is a fantastic storyteller and an accomplished writer, and it will be quite clear by this weekend if her prose resonates as strongly with adult-only materia

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — The U.S. stock market ended Monday's choppy trading session mostly higher as investors weighed soft housing data against a flurry of deal news, including the takeover of Family Dollar Stores Inc. by Dollar Tree Inc.
Sales of existing homes in June fell, marking the first decline in four months. Later this week, the pace of data speeds up as investors will get second-quarter gross domestic product, a Fed decision and July payrolls among other economic items of importance. Get ready for 48 hours of economic fury
The S&P 500 SPX, +0.64% ended the day less than a point higher at 1,978.91. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.70% added 22 points, or 0.1%, to 16,982.59. The Nasdaq Composite COMP, +0.91% closed 4.65 points, or 0.1%, lower at 4,444.91.
Follow MarketWatch's live blog of today's stock-market action.
"We are not shocked with the home sales numbers because demographic trends are underpinning those numbers. A much higher proportion of young people is living with their parents, as they are weighed down by student debt and stagnant wages," said Patty Edwards, managing director and portfolio manager at US Bank Wealth Management.
"Still, the economy is slowly improving and we expect companies to continue to grow their earnings. This market is more and more earnings driven and we are watching softer revenue growth, though no alarm bells are going off yet," she added.

Imposter is a flexible framework to perform Browser Phishing attacks. Once the system running Imposter is configured as the DNS server to the victims, the internal DNS server of Imposter resolves all DNS queries to itself. When the victim tries to access any website the domain resolves to the system running Imposter and Imposters internal web server serves content to the victim. Depending on the configuration appropriate payloads are sent to the victim. Data stolen from the victim is sent back to Imposter and this is stored in a SQLite database in a folder created with its name based on the date and time of the attack.
Imposter can perform the following attacks:
- Steal cookies
- Set cookies
- Steal Local Shared Objects
- Steal stored passwords from FireFox
- Steal cached files
- Poison browser cache
- Steal files from the victims local file system through Internet Explorer
- Run SQL queries on the victims Google Gears database and transfer the results
- Create ResourceStore and Managed ResourceStore on the victims Google Gears LocalServer
For the attacks related to Google Gears, the payload generated by Imposter automatically checks if the victim has installed and permitted Gears. This prevents any pop-up alerts to the user.
- Administrative Rights:
- Imposter listens on ports 53/UDP and 80/TCP
- The 'File Stealer' module runs an internal sniffer
- System running Imposter should have the IP address 192.168.1.3
- Internal DNS server resolves all domains to 192.168.1.3
- WinPcap must be installed on the system
- Linux Virtual Machine with IP address 192.168.1.2 configured in 'bridged' networking mode.
- A samba network share named 'imp' with anonymous read access on the Linux VM.
- This network share should a smbmount of the 'imp' folder that comes along with Imposter.
- imp folder containing imposter.swf must be in the same directory as the Imposter binary
- Share the 'imp' folder in the Imposter directory with name 'imp_win'.
- In the Linux VM create a folder '/imp' and map it to the 'imp_win' share with this command:
mount -t smbfs -o username=<win user name> //192.168.1.3/imp_win /imp
- Add the following lines to the smb.conf file:
path = /imp
read only = yes
public = yes
- Restart the smb service.
The image below shows how Imposter sits in relation to the victim and how it has to be configured.
This is the dashboard of Imposter.
- The Victims section will show the list of victims connected to Imposter.
- The checkboxes specify which attacks Imposter will perform.
- The Summary tab would display information about the stolen data and status updates in real-time.
- On double-clicking any victim the Stolen Data tab will display the data stolen from that victim.
This tab contains the HTML of the head and body section of the page that would be displayed to the victim when he connects to Imposter. The iframes to carry out the attack would be automatically added to this HTML by Imposter.Update Button:
To set a custom welcome page, enter the required HTML and click 'Update'. This custom HTML is stored and read from the 'config' database file. The custom page is stored in the config.s3db file. The custom page can include images as well. Refer to the Server content section to find out how this can be done.Reset to default:
This resets the HTML to its default value.
Imposter can steal as well as set-cookies in the victims browser. The URL value would depend on the path attribute of the cookie that must be stolen. To set cookie, the key-value pair can be entered in the Set-Cookie text box. If more than one key-value pair should be set then each entry should be entered in a new line, Imposter sends a separate Set-Cookie header for each entry in a new line.
Flash LSOs can be stolen using Imposer. Flash LSOs have a path attribute which acts as an access control parameter. The URL and LSO path fields should take this in to account. The LSO read from the victims browser is stored in an array and the base64 encoded value of this array is sent to Imposter.
This module steals the passwords from FireFoxs saved passwords repository. The URL of the page which contains the login form and the HTML of that login form should be entered. The HTML can only contain the fields that need to be stolen and other hidden fields can be left out. The login form should be on HTTP for this attack to work, however the action attribute can point to a HTTPS page.
There are special requirements for the file stealer module to function. These are mentioned earlier in the guide. Once it has been set-up properly the full name of the files that must be stolen from the victims system are entered here. This is the only module where new entries can be added when Imposter is running and they would immediately be sent to the victim.
Imposter can poison the local browser cache. The URL of the file to be cached, its content-type and content should be entered. Currently binary files like Images, flash etc are not supported. The expiry date is set to Expires: Mon, 11 Jan 2011 11:11:11.
Imposter can steal any cached files from the victims browser. It currently only supports text based files, so images etc cannot be stolen. Add the entire URL of the cached file that must be stolen.
Imposter can run SQL queries on the victims Google Gears database. If the query is a SELECT query that returns data then this is sent back to Imposter and stored in a SQLite database in the output folder.
The URL of the site, the name of the Google Gears database and the SQL query should be entered in Imposter.
Imposter can create Resource Stores (RS) on the victims machine. All properties of the Resource Store must be entered. Only the Required Cookie field is optional.
After entering the properties of RS the files should be added one by one before Add is clicked. Currently binary files like Images, flash etc are not supported. Each individual file is added using the + button. Once all the files have been entered, clicking the Add button will add this entry.
Imposter can create Managed Resource Stores (MRS) on the victims machine. All properties of the Managed Resource Store must be entered. Only the Required Cookie field is optional.
After entering the properties of MRS the files should be added one by one before Add is clicked. Currently binary files like Images, flash etc are not supported. Each individual file is added using the + button. Once all the files mentioned in the Manifest File have been entered, clicking the Add button will add this entry.
Imposter can be used as a traditional Web-Server to server static content. To do this, create a directory named www in the same folder where Imposter binary is located. This directory serves as the webroot. When you want to request these files from the browser then ?get_from_webserver.fileshould be added to the name of the file. This keyword indicates to Imposter that this file should be served from the www folder.
For example, if a file named logo.jpg is placed inside the webroot directory. Then to refer to it, the HTML should look like this, <img src=/logo.jpg?get_from_webserver.file>.
- Does Imposter work on Linux?
No, currently it only works on Windows. A Mono compatible version might come out in the future.
- If similar attacks can work on HTML5 then why isn't Imposter supporting it?
Simple, no websites are using HTML5's Database and Cache features yet. No databases to steal data from. Like Google Gears the user has to explicitly permit a site to use HTML5's cache . So setting backdoors is out of question because user's would not have permitted any site to use this feature yet. Have patience.
- Why does the File Stealer module need a Linux VM?
A share with anonymous read access should be set-up for the file stealing attack to work. I could not set-up one on my Windows system even after a lot of struggle. So I gave up made one in the samba server in one of my Linux VMs. Since users might also have similar problems I stuck to this design.
- Imposter does not seem to work, how do I troubleshoot?
- Check if the dlls of SharPcap and System.Data.SQLite are present in the same directory as the Imposter binary.
- Check if the IP addresses of the systems and DHCP setting in the Access Point are properly set as explained in the guide.
- Check if the lso.swf file is in the same directory as the Imposter binary.
- Check if the imp directory is present in the same directory and is properly set-up as explained. (File Stealer module only)
- If you have set a custom welcome page referencing any resources, check if they are present in the www directory.
- Sometimes Imposter shows me a blank page instead of the welcome page with iframes, why?
- Imposter sends the initial page with the payloads only for the very first request that comes from victim. For all other requests Imposter returns a 200 OK response with no body. Sometimes you might have your browser open with some open pages before connecting to the attackers Wifi. Then the first request could be made by an Ajax call of a page that is already open, so when you open a new tab and request a site a blank page is shown.
- To prevent the page with the payload being sent to HTTP requests that are sent by other software, Imposter only sends the payload to requests with the User-Agent header containing one of the following keywords:
- Firefox
- Opera
- Chrome
- Imposter works for most victims but when some victims connect the attacks dont work, why?
- The victim could be having a proxy configured on his browser
- The victims browser might have already resolved the IP address of a domain before connecting to the attackers network.
- Reasons explained in the earlier section
- File stealing attack does not work against certains machines, why?
There could be different reasons for this. If the machine is part of a domain then this attack does not work. Because then the user is given a authentication prompt when connecting to shares that are not part of his domain.
- Does Imposter send any data outside of my machine?
No, Imposter only listens for inbound connections, no outbound connection is made except one. When Imposter is started it makes a single request to http://www.andlabs.org/tools/imposter/version.txt, to check for newer versions of Imposter.
- Why doesnt Imposter come with preloaded configuration to attack popular sites?
Imposter is deliberately provided with no preloaded configuration. This is to prevent abuse of this tool by script kiddies. Though the tool is very easy to use, the attacker must have a good understanding of the attacks and the technologies to configure it effectively.
- Who do I contact if have (questions | ideas | suggestions | comments | critisicm | feedback)?
My email ID is here. I would love to hear from you.

Resica Elementary School unveiled a design on Tuesday for a new playground concept that combines school and community usage and involvement.
Resica Elementary School unveiled a design on Tuesday for a new playground concept that combines school and community usage and involvement.
The event, led by representatives from Leathers and Associates, launches the replacement of the prior playground built in 1996. Many people at the event worked on the first project. Just as with the first one, the community of adults will partner with children in the new playground's design and creation. Many who were children participating in the first project came back for this one with their own families. Perkins and Friendly's restaurants donated food for the event.
Although the current playground has a lifespan of 16 years, the new one can last for at least 50 because it is built with durable, recycled plastic and composite lumber.
The $150,000 project will take five days to build and will be done next September.
Gail Kulick, principal of Resica Elementary said, "This is a community-built playground; built by the community for the community. The newer design increases the line of supervision, provides for 'shoulder to shoulder play,' meaning children of all abilities will be able to interact."
The design was inspired by hundreds of drawings by students of Resica and Middle Smithfield Elementary schools. It will incorporate local history with the sciences and arts.
A fiber mulch covering provides increased cushioning and will allow wheelchairs and strollers to be rolled through more easily.
A children's committee will seek students' involvement for fundraising and design input.
"It has already had great community support," said principal Kulick, who thanked ESSA Foundation for its $28,000 grant and Walmart for its $2,500 grant, the Resica PTO for its $7,000 donation and Shawnee Inn for housing the two designers while they worked with the community on the design.
Anyone interested in volunteering for a playground committee or for information may call Gail Kulick at 570-223-6911.

The Integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) is designed to make server administrators more productive and improve the overall availability of Dell servers. iDRAC7 alerts administrators to server issues, helps them perform remote server management, and reduces the need for physical access to the server.
Since the iDRAC with Lifecycle Controller Firmware version update 188.8.131.52 [release date: 05 April 2015], provides support for using a single iDRAC firmware across Dell 12th and 13th generation PowerEdge servers, iDRAC7 and iDRAC8 are functionally the same.
iDRAC7 with Lifecycle Controller technology is part of a larger datacenter solution that helps keep business critical applications and workloads available at all times. The technology allows administrators to deploy, monitor, manage, configure, update, troubleshoot and remediate Dell servers from any location, and without the use of agents. It accomplishes this regardless of operating system or hypervisor presence or state.
If you need help setting up or managing your iDRAC and Lifecycle Controller, refer to the knowledge base article Out of The Box Setup Information for Dell 12G & 13G PowerEdge Servers or the How to Setup and Manage Your iDRAC or CMC for Dell PowerEdge 9G, 10G, 11G, 12G and Blade Chassis Servers article.
If your iDRAC becomes slow or unresponsive, refer to the knowledge base article Additional iDRAC Troubleshooting for assistance.

This hunt is not limited to what's available below. If there are other Moleskines that you would like to see on this hunt, leave us a comment in the discussion board below and we will include it if it's available :)
It all started many years ago, with a pocket-sized black object, the product of a great tradition.
The Moleskine notebook is, in fact, the heir and successor to the legendary notebook used by artists and thinkers over the past two centuries: among them Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, and Bruce Chatwin. A simple black rectangle with rounded corners, an elastic page-holder, and an internal expandable pocket: a nameless object with a spare perfection all its own, produced for over a century by a small French bookbinder that supplied the stationery shops of Paris, where the artistic and literary avant-gardes of the world browsed and bought them. A trusted and handy travel companion, the notebook held invaluable sketches, notes, stories, and ideas that would one day become famous paintings or the pages of beloved books.
The notebook was Bruce Chatwin's favorite, and it was he who called it "moleskine."
In the mid-1980s, these notebooks became increasingly scarce, and then vanished entirely. In his book The Songlines, Chatwin tells the story of the little black notebook: in 1986, the manufacturer, a small family-owned company in the French city of Tours, went out of business. "Le vrai moleskine n'est plus," are the lapidary words he puts into the mouth of the owner of the stationery shop in the Rue de l'Ancienne Comédie, where he usually purchased his notebooks. Chatwin set about buying up all the notebooks that he could find before his departure for Australia, but there were still not enough.
In 1997, a small Milanese publisher brought the legendary notebook back to life, and selected this name with a literary pedigree to revive an extraordinary tradition.
Following in Chatwin's footsteps, Moleskine notebooks have resumed their travels, providing an indispensable counterpart to the new and portable technology of today. Capturing reality in movement, glimpsing and recording details, inscribing the unique nature of experience on paper: the Moleskine notebook becomes a battery that stores ideas and feelings, releasing its energy over time.
Today, Moleskine brand is synonymous with culture, travel, memory, imagination, and personal identity--in both the real world and the digital world.
It is a brand that encompasses a family of nomadic objects: notebooks, diaries, journals, bags, writing instruments and reading accessories, dedicated to our mobile identity. Objects that follow us everywhere we go and identify us wherever we are in the world. Moleskine objects are partners for the creative and imaginative professions of our time. They represent, around the world, a symbol of contemporary nomadism.

Guest Post by Esra'a from Bahrain. She enjoys hardcore acoustic noise-terror music, and is fortunate enough to be a TED Global Fellow, Echoing Green Fellow, and on the Advisory Board for the European Summit for Global Transformation and the Meta-Activism Project. She gave a keynote at BlogHer about the group blog and about kicking ass and free speech in general.
I'm the geek who founded Mideast Youth. I have been aggressively expanding it with my friends for the past 4 years and I couldn't imagine doing anything else with my life.
Mideast Youth is first and foremost a group blog shared by a growing number of young activists and bloggers in the Middle East and North Africa who want to be heard on a variety of different topics, from religion to free speech to politics to gay rights (and more.) Aside from that, we run a network of about 15 sites that deal with: Baha'i human rights, Kurdish human rights, migrant worker rights, underground activist musicians, free speech for bloggers, and a few other campaigns that deal with free speech and minority rights.
Mideast Youth currently operates in English, Arabic and Farsi, featuring podcasts in these languages as well.
We're all volunteers – and the core Mideast Youth team consists of about 5 people (Me from Bahrain, Fatima from Saudi Arabia, Ali from Iran, Ahmed from Egypt and the 5th person is a frequently rotating team of other volunteers who help with design, development and video editing.)
We love running our projects and making people aware of things that not many people talk about – but most of all, we love helping others set up their own projects, which we design and host for them, for free:
Our latest project is CrowdVoice.org, which is a user-powered service that tracks voices of protest from around the world by crowdsourcing information. This site rocks. We believe you might think so too, once you look at it.
As you can see, we are an active bunch, but we need your help to continue. Some bird told me that geeks enjoy helping other geeks out. That is a lie actually (birds don't talk.) But I want to believe it's true.
If you support our community, our mission, and believe in it as much as we do, your help would be highly appreciated.

Finance Director Don Herz announced today that Assistant City Clerk Joan Ross has been appointed to the position of City Clerk, effective December 7. She served as Assistant City Clerk for 20 years under Clerk Paul Malzer who passed away in September. Prior to joining the Clerk's office, she served in the City Attorney's Office for 11 years.
"Joan has done an excellent job running the office in the difficult time since Paul's passing," said Don Herz, Director of the City Finance Department, which oversees the Clerk's office. "We are fortunate to have someone with her experience and commitment to the city in this important office."
"The City Clerk's office is known to have a tradition of quality service to the public and to city and county departments," said Ross. "I am grateful for the opportunity to carry on this tradition and look forward to serving the community of Lincoln as its City Clerk."
The salary for Ross has not yet been finalized by the Personnel Department, which received 68 applications for the position.
The appointment of Ross was approved by Mayor Don Wesely. The appointment for her replacement as Assistant City Clerk requires City Council approval. The city will soon be accepting applications for that position.

Introduction and Names[edit]
- What Noisebridge is about: "Noisebridge is a 501c3 nonprofit that provides a space for creation, collaboration, and learning about technology and creative projects. Noisebridge provides space, power tools, and infrastructure to help the public learn new skills and create cool things. Noisebridge continues to exist through and depends entirely on membership fees and donations. Our code of conduct is 'Be excellent to each other'."
- Round of introductions: What's your name, what do you do, and if you are new, how did you hear about Noisebridge? Start with the moderator and go left.
Miloh -- I make Noisebridge
Laura -- I used five words. Yes.
Mike -- I am a technowanderer if you will.
Rubin -- I am Noisebridge. I am unpopular. I touch the peoples. I touch them so they stay touched.
Ed -- I have 45 hours of community service to go. Woo.
Duncan -- I am here.

Kelly -- I work in neuroscience.
Danny -- I am Cafe Gratitude.
Jesse -- I like technology.
Shaun -- I am at SFU
Mike -- I am from New Orleans, Gumbo hackerspace
Josh -- I write code, lots of it. We already like. OVER 10 KLOC
Rikke -- I am just awesome. The end.
Miloh welcomes people, and then gives a consensus process pitch.
Rubin interrupts to explain sudo-o-cracy.
Miloh says THINGS WORK, YAY!
- A brief primer on consensus process: We agree and so should you! Only paid-up members can block consensus.
Short Announcements[edit]
Cool new projects? Something you'd like people to know? Say now, but keep it short!
Hacker Equality site/group[edit]
At CCC camp, there was a radio talk program, including Mitch, and others, about queers and geeks. We talked about tolerance and equality and diversity -- tolerance for people who use vim or emacs, tabs and spaces, and boys and girls and others. We would like to start a group to encourage accepting other hackers for what they are. So Rubin is going to start a site for hacker_equality, and encourage hackerspaces to join the movement, and sign up.
New or Stale Events[edit]
Noisebridge 3 Year Anniversary and Hacker Prom, October 1st[edit]
Johannes is doing Arse Electronica again, where the Austrian government pays to ship him to San Francisco to talk about sex. So lots of people here talking dirty.
And we'll also be planning the annual Noisebridge party -- it will be hacker prom themed. We'll have tuxes, colored lights, awkward dance, chaperones, and awkward photos.
Contact Rubin if you would like to help.
Rubin encourages Miloh to create sudo pop again.
Financial Report[edit]
Miloh demands a financial report.
THere is an awkward silence, then Kelly goes:
Funds in bank: $18,859.14
We're really really very close to having three months advance operating expenses, even when we've dug down into paying the full amount.
We have 45 members, and 14 regular donors. 31 regular, 18 people paying starving hackers, 2 doing well hackers.
Membership Binder[edit]
- Read off any names from the binder for the past month. Write a check on every open application.
- Anyone up for joining this week (ie have four checks by their name + have two sponsors) should introduce themselves then leave the area in search of gifts (traditionally beer and a lime) for the rest of the group. The rest of the meeting should consense on whether they may join.
Consensus items[edit]
(Add any new items for consensus to the Current Consensus Items page.)
Discussion Items[edit]
Mike talks about the computer that was broken, and asked someone to fix it. Leif said yes.
Tor Project Report[edit]
Tor project has now $411, 8% of which will be skimmed off by Noisebridge for "expenses" and "flowers and dining costs" and "pajama requirements" and "entertainment" and 3% "Paypal" "charges". We are actively looking around for hosting providers. We are looking for hosting providers, with .5GB or more pipe, where they can put a linux box in a supportive environment.
End of Meeting[edit]
- PGP Key Signing could happen now, check the list to see who wants in on the action.
- Put back the membership binder in the black desk.
- Save the meeting notes to the wiki.

I know I haven't been updating much at this blog lately, but while adrenaline is still pumping, I wanted to get out a short rant. I will always advocate for cyclists on the street, but as a cyclist who rides the streets everyday, amidst the aggro office worker drivers, I think it is rather absurd for Santa Monica to force cyclists to ride in the street by law. I'm a 20 something in great shape and can take all the shit drivers throw at me, figuratively and literally (my wife and I have both had objects thrown at us for riding bikes before), but there is no way the majority of regular folks are going to tolerate riding a bike amongst the aggressive and violent nature of our street environments.
As long as SUV drivers can honk, scream, yell, rev their engines, throw a tissy fit, and then proceed to threaten my life with dangerous swerving maneuvers as they deliberately cut me off, then speed off going 45 in a 30 zone before I can get a license plate (as happened to me this morning, and my giving chase sprinting at a racing pace of 25-30mph could not even come close to catching him), than our streets are not environments where cyclists are welcome, even if we have a right to be there. Our road culture is a failure of personal responsibility, a failure of engineering, and a failure of law enforcement. A bit fat F.
Unless real action is taken to make our streets safe, not fluffy platitudes from glacial local and state governments, I don't think it is a matter of if, but when, we have another Dr. Christopher Thompson, a driver who through deliberate action, attempts to kill a cyclist with their car. It could very well happen here in Santa Monica, and when it does, it will not just be the fault of the assailant, it will be the fault of us all, for allowing our streets to come to this.

You said it. The #1 reason that I make about half of my bikeable trips by car, is aggressive Santa Monica drivers.
We're supposed to get a draft "bike action plan" sometime this month. Count on me to raise a stink if it doesn't address SM's dangerous driver problem.

The Last Time I Committed Suicide (1997)
Directed by Stephen KayGenres - Drama | Sub-Genres - Biopic [feature], Period Film | Release Date - Jun 20, 1997 (USA - Unknown) | Run Time - 92 min. | Countries - USA | MPAA Rating - R

Synopsis by Mark Deming
While Neal Cassady never gained fame as a writer, he was a pivotal figure among the Beat poets and novelists of the 1950s. A close friend of most of the seminal figures in the Beat movement, Cassady's free-wheeling, larger-than-life personality was a major influence on Jack Kerouac, who used him as the inspiration for the character Dean Moriarity in On the Road, and he was a founding member of Ken Kesey's post-Beat, pre-hippie "Merry Pranksters," driving their now-famous psychedelic bus (whose destination, then as now, was "Furthur"). The Last Time I Committed Suicide is loosely based on several incidents from Cassady's life, as well as an eight-page letter that he wrote to Kerouac about some complicated events in his love life. In the late 1940s, 20-year-old Cassady (Thomas Jane) was living in Denver and working the late shift at a tire factory when he became involved with Joan (Claire Forlani), a sad young woman with a suicidal bent, and befriended Harry (Keanu Reeves), a cheerful but past-his-prime alcoholic. Cassady also found himself the target of the affections of Cherry Mary (Gretchen Mol), a sexy 16-year-old whose mother, Mrs. Greenway (Christine Rose), doesn't much care for him; he also encountered Ben (Adrien Brody), a shy young poet whose interest in Cassady seemed to be more than just literary. Footage of the real Neal Cassady can be found in the documentary on the Beat Movement, The Source.

Ok, so I think we have found that one trend that absolutely every celeb is on board with. The one piece outfit (rompers, playsuits or jumpsuits) has been seen on nearly every A-list celebrity and beyond, and of course we love the trend too! This style is far from a new trend though, it is actually a retro style that has continued to be a staple in fashion. We love that the romper can be worn on the red carpet, out on the town, or paired with luxury swimwear styles. Spoiler alert! The Lady Lux boutique just might be featuring the classic one piece style in the new apparel collection.
There are literally tons of celeb romper styles and we had to just pick a few of our favorites wearing some fabulous jumpsuits. Rihanna is a major repeat offender when it comes to the romper, but we aren't blaming her! We love the floral romper she was spotted in, with it's floral look it is definitely more soft and feminine than her usual street style. Kim Kardashian is another celeb that rocks this look quite often, but we love the way she paired her simple black romper with a large belt to accentuate her tiny waist!
Ta-da! The new Rock The Boat romper from the Lady Lux clothing collection is a combination of our favorite romper styles. This fashionable one piece has a strapless neckline, which is perfect for pairing with your sexy bikinis and has a wide leg pant for a flattering look on any shape. The best part about this new style is that it features another one of our favorite trends, chevron! To complete your designer swimwear look all you need is this stylish romper and a great beach bag and you are good to go. Shop Lady Lux clothing for great trendy styles like this one that work perfectly on their own or with your favorite designer swimwear styles from Lady Lux.

Someone's Loss might be Your Gain: A Case of Negative Results Publications in Science
Renata Curty and Jian Tang
Monday, 6:30pm
This poster reports a research in progress which investigates the academic influence of a scientific journal dedicated to publish negative results. Based on a case study of Journal of Negative Results in Biomedicine (JNRBM), it examines the academic influence of this journal through citation impact, authors' productivity, and authorship international diversity. Preliminary findings show that JNRBM has an active participation of international scholars with high productivity in their academic disciplines, while citation counts of published articles are still polarized. These results imply that journals publishing negative results are beneficial for triggering discussions and debates on current models, tenets or dogmas, although they still gain limited attention from the academic community.

On Cyber Monday we processed up to 124 sales per second (2,008 / minute) - more than double that of Black Friday.
Black Friday and Cyber Monday are always the busiest shopping days of the year. This Black Friday Shopify merchants sold 198,809 products (compared to 102K last year), and on Cyber Monday they sold an impressive 420,956 products (compared to 216K last year). It was a record breaking weekend for our merchants, and I'm so happy we kicked off the holiday shopping season with a bang.
One of the key groups at Shopify is the performance and operations team. Their goal is to ensure our platform is the fastest, most reliable and secure ecommerce system available. To prepare for this massive influx of traffic and sales, our team made major investments and upgrades to our core infrastructure. With these upgrades, we're not only bulking up our internal systems, but also significantly improving our over 35,000 store's performance. For example, we have already improved the average response time of all our ecommerce stores to an industry leading 58ms.
I'm going to share with you some of the core infrastructure improvements we have made, but be warned that a lot of this information is pretty technical. The tl;dr is we're constantly working hard to ensure your store can handle any volume of transactions.
Conan, The Traffic Simulator
Payment BackgroundingOne of the issues with high volume sales days like Black Friday and Cyber Monday is that some payment gateways are slow, and their performance can slow down everything else. Payment gateways take at least 2 seconds and up to 30 seconds to process the payment request, which greatly limited Shopify's concurrency on extremely busy days.
We have moved the payment step to a background job, and now show customers a spinner page, which keeps front end resources ready to serve other fast requests. This increased our maximum throughput in raw requests per second and had a huge impact on how many checkouts we could process concurrently, allowing us to process hundreds of purchases per second.
Caching ImprovementsWe've also increased the size of our page caching layer by 400%, and we're working hard on putting more and more intermediate data into cache. Our cache horizon grew such that we do an average of 20% more cache hits, which means customers get a virtually instant pageload in most cases. For cache misses we go to memcache before the database for a lot of the hot data which improves page load times as well as reduces load on the databases. We now have over 500GB of cache in total.
Also of note is that our generational caching strategy (affectionately known as "Tobi Caching" - a clever caching strategy that our CEO Tobi developed) continues to work well to this day. Aggressive Tobi Caching on all storefront pages was key in reducing load - such that pages not found in the cache could be built quickly.
Database UpgradesWe have upgraded our master database servers from Dell R710 with dual quad-core CPUs and 192GB of RAM to the latest Dell R820 with quad eight-core CPUs and 256GB of RAM. MySQL's InnoDB engine scales extremely well with additional CPU cores and the extra memory let's us keep more data in cache.
Read/Write Database SplittingWe have implemented read write splitting of our databases, which means that we now have multiple slave databases which serve read queries and then one write database serving as the master where mutation queries are served.
This takes a significant amount of load off our master database (so far up to 1 million queries per minute), which is critical to have available for serving more writes during flash sale types of events.
About 95% of queries on Shopify are reads, so they are directed to the read slaves, while the master handles the other 5% of the traffic. These read slaves can also be scaled horizontally as more and more shops sign up on the platform.
More Application ServersWe have doubled the amount of our application servers. Application servers run the pages for all storefronts, and having more of them means that we can serve even more clients concurrently.
Going ForwardThis summary only scratches the surface of what we have done, and have planned for the future. If you're interested in the nitty gritty of how we halved Shopify's response time and more than tripled maximum throughput - we'll soon be posting deep dives into each of the major changes we've made, and we'll explain why we settled on each solution as well as what other solutions were evaluated.

MilfHunter: Savannah Fyre, Savannah On Fire / 01.18.2016
Tarzan went out hunting at a local bar and was successful. He rescued a red snapper, Savannah Fyre, from a school of drunk piranhas. He managed to persuade the damsel in distress to go back to our place. The beautiful redhead was intrigued by our camera gear and wanted details on the type of movies that we produce. She was turned on by the explicit details and wanted to make a movie of her own. Tarzan helped her strip down to the body stocking that he was wearing and smacked, squeezed and jiggled her nice booty. Soon after, Savannah gave him an amazing blow job. She then got her fire bush plowed from various angles and positions before getting her perky pink tits glazed with jizz.

The U.S. can dramatically lower the power industry's draw on the nation's strained water supply by replacing its aging power plants with water-smart options like renewable energy and efficiency, according to a new report.
The study, conducted by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS)-led Energy and Water in a Warming World Initiative (EW3), warns that continuing down a 'business as usual' path will place a heavy burden on the U.S.' water resources.
"In our water-constrained world, a 20-year delay in tackling the problem leaves the power industry unnecessarily vulnerable to drought and exacerbates competition with other water users," says John Rogers, co-manager of EW3. "We can bring water use down faster and further, but only by changing how we get our electricity."
According to the study, more than 40% of the U.S.' freshwater withdrawals are used for power plant cooling. These plants also lose several billion gallons of freshwater every day through evaporation. Furthermore, the report says increasing demand and drought are putting a greater strain on water resources.
Examining different paths the nation's electricity production can take in the coming decades, the study says that while utilities' ongoing shift to natural gas would decrease water use in the coming decades, its ongoing requirements could still harm water-strained areas.
However, according to the report, a pathway that includes strong investments in renewables and energy efficiency would greatly reduce power generation's water use and carbon emission.
Under such a scenario, water withdrawals would drop by 97% from current levels by 2050, with most of that drop within the next 20 years. The study says that approach would also cut carbon emissions 90% from current levels, mostly in the near term. A renewables path would also be a much cheaper path for consumers, the report adds.

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Denali Commission, an independent federal agency that provides utility, infrastructure and economic support throughout Alaska, have announced that five Alaska Native communities will receive technical expertise through the Strategic Technical Assistance Response Team (START) program.
Through the START awards, each Alaska Native tribe will receive technical assistance focused on community-based energy planning, energy awareness and training programs, and clean energy deployment and financing opportunities.
Additionally, each village is eligible for up to $250,000 in financial assistance to deploy a renewable energy or energy efficiency project, supported by the DOE's Tribal Energy grant program.
"Through the START program, we are helping Native American and Alaska Native communities increase local generation capacity, enhance energy efficiency measures and create job opportunities in the new clean energy economy," says Tracey A. LeBeau, director of the DOE's Office of Indian Energy. "The technical assistance awards for clean energy tribal projects announced today will help advance sustainable rural resources, while addressing the unique energy challenges facing Alaskan communities."
The following Alaska Native entities were selected for the 2013 START program and will receive technical assistance over the next six to nine months:
– Native Village of Kongiganak will receive assistance to strengthen existing wind energy infrastructure, efficiency measures and smart grid technology development.
– Native Village of Koyukuk will receive assistance with upgrades to its energy infrastructure and identification of energy efficiency and biomass opportunities.
– Native Village of Minto will receive assistance to identify energy efficiency biomass, and solar energy opportunities.
– Native Village of Shishmaref will receive assistance with efforts to build capacity and increase sustainability within the village to mitigate current energy and community relocation challenges.
– Yakutat T'lingit Tribe will receive assistance with prioritizing renewable energy projects, evaluating feasibility studies, fostering community support and identifying the next steps to move projects forward, including biomass, ocean energy and efficiency measures.

How do investors make sense of Mark Zuckerberg's spending spree? Well, one way to do it is to compare what Facebook is doing now to what Google has been doing for years. Heard on the Street's Miriam Gottfried joins MoneyBeat. Photo: Oculus VR.

5% Raises For Elected County Officials
Hourly Pay Up 86 Cents For Some County Workers; Salaries Were Low Among Counties, Pippin Says
The Valley County Commissioners adopted the recommendation of the County Compensation Board on Tuesday and voted a 5 percent pay increase for elected county officials.
The commissioners also raised the salaries of all non-elected county employees who are eligible for health insurance by 86 cents an hour.
According to Commissioner Dave Pippin, Valley County paid the lowest or next to the lowest salaries of similar counties in Montana.
"We need to raise our salaries," Pippin said. "We will try to pay as much as we can and not break the bank. We want to keep our good people here."
The raises given to the 10 elected officials will cost about $30,000, and the total cost of all the raises will be between $200,000 and $225,000.
Commissioner Bruce Peterson voted against the raises for the elected officials.
"I have some concerns," Peterson said. "Not that (the raise) is not warranted. I want to know where PILT is and about Keystone. I would like to hold off a little bit."
The other commissioners said the raise had to be decided for the new budget.
Commissioner Dave Reinhardt voted for this raise but served notice for next year's budget by saying, "Next year when we don't have money it's going to be cuts instead of adding taxes."
The minimum base salary for the county treasurer, the clerk and recorder, the clerk of the District Court, the sheriff and the county commissioners is set at $41,656.31. In addition, the clerk and recorder receives $6,248.45 for the duties as the county superintendent of schools/assessor, and another $2,000 for duties as election administrator.
By action of the legislature, the treasurer, the sheriff and the commissioners receive an additional $2,000.
The sheriff is entitled to receive a longevity payment amounting to 1 percent of the annual minimum base salary for each year of service with the office.
The justice of the peace is paid $23,744.10. The county coroner receives $3,381.05.
The county attorney earns $105,611.94, of which the state of Montana contributes $63,393.
These salaries are effective for the fiscal year beginning July 1.
In other action, the commissioners appointed LeRoy Kountz to the County Planning Board.

Trying to predict the future is a fool's game.
What seems a failure at first (like, say, the electric light) becomes indispensable. And what seems destined to succeed (Hello there, Apple Newton!) can soon become a toss-away item. So claiming any invention as a "sure bet" is an easy way to set yourself up for humiliation.
There are items, though, that certainly have the potential to dramatically impact the way people live—from interacting with the world around them, to exploring deep space, to simply finding ways to survive in hostile environments.
Some have been on the market a few years; others are just gaining traction; and others, still, are in the late formulative stages, but each of these inventions has the potential to change the world as we know it today.

Where to Dispose of Your Christmas Tree in Wichita Falls
Now that the holidays are coming to a close, a lot of people are cleaning up. The ornaments are being tucked away carefully and wrapping paper is gone, but what do you do with that tree? The city does NOT provide curb side pickup, so you'll need to plan ahead. The drops are great for the city because the trees get ground up and are used as mulch throughout our parks. Here are a few places you can take your Christmas tree in the Wichita falls area!
There are four locations to choose from:
Lucy Park – This location is open 24 hours. You can find Lucy Park on Sunset Lane off of Seymour Highway, and the drop is at the back of the park near the tree farm.
Kiwanis Park – Also open 24 hours, you can find this site at 4400 Southwest Parkway. The drop-off is next to the Parks Maintenance Building at the entrance of the park.
City Transfer Station – Located at 3200 Lawrence Road, you can drop off your trees Monday – Friday from 8:00am – 6:00pm and Saturday from 8:00am – 5:00pm.
City Landfill – Head to 10984 Wiley Road between the hours of 8:00am – 5:00pm Monday – Friday.
Make sure your tree is in acceptable shape before you drag it out of your house. You must strip your tree of all tree stands, lights, and decorations, and no artificial trees will be accepted.
The drop locations at Lucy Park and Kiwanis Park will be open until January 15. After that date, residents can still drop off their trees at the City Transfer Station or the City Landfill for no charge.
If you'd like more information about these tree drops, call 940-761-7977.

Michael Clark Proves That (20/10 Vision) Does Exist In The Basketball World
If you don't know Michael Clark then it's about time you get...
SEATTLE — Walk up to the front doors of Seattle's baseball mecca and you can't miss it.
While Safeco Field itself might someday be known as The House the Entire 1995 Seattle Mariners Team Built, the street that runs along its south side is called Edgar Martinez Drive, and for good reason.
From his Major League debut in 1987 to his tearful goodbye at the end of 2004, the man known simply as Edgar plied his perfect right-handed swing for the Mariners, putting up remarkable numbers and gaining the love and respect of an entire sports community.
It's been five years since Martinez hung up his hitting shoes, but history might be calling him back to the podium. For the first time, the former designated hitter is eligible for election to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
A candidate must receive 75 percent of the vote from Baseball Writers' Association of America members to gain election, with leadoff great Rickey Henderson and former Red Sox slugger Jim Rice reaching that threshold to gain entrance in 2009.
Former Expos and Cubs outfielder Andre Dawson (67.0 percent) and former Twins ace Bert Blyleven (62.7 percent) had the highest totals among those not elected in 2009 voting and remain eligible for 2010.
They're joined on the ballot this year by a group of newcomers that includes Martinez plus former All-Star second baseman Roberto Alomar and Reds superstar shortstop Barry Larkin.
Results of the election will be announced on Wednesday, Jan. 6, and until then, in Martinez's case, a philosophical debate will emerge.
Commissioner Bud Selig said it succinctly and perfectly upon renaming the honor for the top DH in the American League the Edgar Martinez Award a few years ago.
"He's the greatest DH since the rule was put in," Selig said when asked if Martinez should be a Hall of Famer. "That's the easy part of it and I'll let the writers decide whether he is a Hall of Famer."
And that's where the argument will begin.
From a statistical standpoint, Martinez had his high points, to be sure. His isolated years of pure brilliance — from 1995 to 2001, he hit .329 and averaged 28 homers and 110 RBIs per season — and excellent career statistics in batting average (.312), on-base percentage (.418) and slugging (.515) will get him votes.
Also on the plus side are nuggets that include seven All-Star teams, five Silver Slugger Awards, two AL batting titles, and he retired with the highest batting average (.315), most homers (243) and most RBIs by a DH (1,043).
Martinez is one of only 11 inactive players to play in 2,000 games and have a career batting average over .300 with a career OBP over .400 and a slugging percentage over .500. The other 10 are already on the wall in Cooperstown.
Also, Martinez, Ted Williams, Babe Ruth, Stan Musial, Rogers Hornsby and Lou Gehrig are the only players in MLB history with at least 300 home runs, 500 doubles, a career batting average higher than .300, and a career on-base percentage higher than .400.
"I don't think it's unreasonable at all for him to get Hall of Fame consideration," said former Angels outfielder Tim Salmon, who played against Martinez in the AL West for 13 seasons.
"He was one of those rare guys where you just really stopped what you were doing and watched. There were a lot of things you could learn from watching the way he hit a baseball, especially for me, being a right-handed hitter."
"It was great to see him play, even though, unfortunately, he really did a lot of damage against the Angels." But Martinez will have a few strikes against him when it comes to the Hall vote.
For one, his lifetime numbers of 309 homers, 2,247 hits and 1,261 RBIs, while exceptional, are not necessarily slam-dunk Hall-worthy. And voters based in the National League might hold his DH status against him.
But the prevailing argument could be the one former Mariners manager and coach and current Nationals bench coach John McLaren puts forth when he says DHs should be considered specialists, like closers, that are now accepted as legitimate Hall of Fame contenders.
"I think once you guys start talking about it and start realizing the designated hitter's role, and what Edgar achieved in his career, I think momentum will pick up, the recognition will be there, and it should be," McLaren said.
"Because he's the greatest designated hitter of all time."

This family was getting ready to leave, but couldn't part from the seashore without getting some last souvenirs from the beach. This painting was done with the palette knife and some brushes.
I was born in Louisiana, and spent my early childhood moving from state to state until settling in New Jersey in third grade. My leanings toward art were placed on the back burner while I focused on high school, college, and making a living. Then, my artistic impulses came out--I painted a tropical island paradise in the garage as a consolation for rained out picnics. Hence, at the advanced age of 48, I began my art training. I continue to learn by doing, creating paintings from scenes that inspire me. I sold my first painting in 2005, and have had paintings accepted into several juried shows, both local and national, including the 2014 Oil Painters of America Eastern Regional Exhibit and the Contemporary Art Gallery Online (where I won...

Nothing lasts forever, but maybe somethings do
Isaac and Mao
Isaac is the brain, and Mao is the body. They live together. Most of the time,they are happy with each other. But sometimes, Mao will be tempered because it was too much spoiled by Isaac. The big concern from Isaac is he has to seek another body to accompany with when Mao died someday. It's also the reason that Isaac seeks how human being can reach eternity and immortality in a way maybe not physically or spiritually, but informatically.
Lets starts from Sharism
Sharism was found the from the revolution of web 2.0 in the past ten years. Firstly it's blogging, then web 2.0 services, then social networks and social media in a whole, etc. The torrents of memes shared in different format leave us questions on why people love to share or hate to share. Later the links between Sharism and other fields like neuron science, social science, economy and pedagogy(learning) were found step by step. All the clues point to a new doctrine...
Once upon a time
- Isaac Mao was called Mao Xianghui(毛向輝)by Chinese
- Studied Computer Science, trained as software engineer and transferred the Isaac part to entrepreneur and seasonal venturer
- Mao lives in China geographically, but Isaac is in information universe
- Many information will become dust, no exceptions even you keep them in a stream. Anyway, blog is not dead.
