Test: An easy VPN with SSL-Explorer
SSL-Explorer provides an easy, web-based interface for configuring a virtual private network.
Road warriors and remote staff often need to access their corporate networks from arbitrary locations. Virtual private networks (VPNs) support private remote access via the Internet. VPN solutions use cryptography to protect Internet traffic from tapping and manipulation. Many VPN tools, however, are hard to set up and require changes to firewalls. SSL-Explorer [1] provides an easy alternative. SSL-Explorer sets up a Webbased VPN and only requires a Javacapable browser as a client (Figure 1). A practical Web tool provides a configuration front-end. SSL_Explorer tunnels TCP-based network protocols such as SMTP, POP, and HTTP across an SSL-protected connection.

Two Cawood Elementary School fifth graders are working to make the holidays a bit brighter for our country's veterans, military families and active duty service members at hospitals and military installations around the world.
Raegan Middleton and Bethany Cox, both 10, have been working to collect cards and artwork from fellow students to send to the American Red Cross for the Holiday Mail for Heroes program.
The girls needed a community service project for 4-H. Middleton's uncle, Danny Soublo, who actually serves in the military but is not stationed overseas at present, after learning about Holiday Mail for our Heroes from her brother, Braden, and his Cub Scout Pack 149, they agreed to tackle the program themselves to support our military by "giving something that means something."
The students distributed a flyer at school, and students had until yesterday to turn in their contributions toward the project. Several hundred cards and pieces of mail had already been turned in by 9 a.m. and the students had not gone room to room to make last minute collections.
Cox says the project was a bit "harder than we thought," noting they had become concerned because most had waited until the last minute to participate.
Cox said she believes the "homemade cards" will mean more to the soldiers because of the special effort put forth by the contributor.
Middleton said the students were attempting to write notes of interest to the soldiers "to tell them what is going on here while they are away. The boys have been telling them about the ballgames and the national championships."
The girls expressed their appreciation to their teacher, Teddy Stephens, for enabling them to make contact with the entire school.
The girls weren't making shopping plans for today as they were preparing to package all the contributions for shipping on Monday because they have to arrive at their destination by Friday.
Middleton is the granddaughter of Darrell and Marilyn Middleton, of Cawood. Her parents are Shannon Lewis of Dalton, Ga., and Anthony Middleton, of Cawood.
Cox is the daughter of Mike and Gina Cox, of Catrons Creek.
Anyone who would like to mail their own cards of encouragement and holiday greetings may do so by sending them:
Holiday Mail for Heroes,
P.O. box 5456
Capitol Heights, MD, 20791-5456.
The deadline for cards to arrive is Dec. 7 in order to guarantee distribution prior to Christmas.

Using Microsoft's Chart Controls In An ASP.NET Application: Sorting and Filtering Chart Data
Content Aggregated From: 4guysfromrolla.com
The Microsoft Chart controls make it easy to take data – such as sales numbers, website traffic statistics, and so on – and turn it into a chart, which can be saved to an image file or displayed from a web page. In Plotting Chart Data we examined a myriad of ways to turn data into a chart, including: plotting the chart data point by point; binding data to the Chart's Points collection; programmatically binding data structured data to the chart; and declaratively binding data using one of ASP.NET's data source controls, such as the SqlDataSource or ObjectDataSource. Oftentimes, web pages that display charts include user interface elements that let the user filter or sort the plotted data. For example, when viewing a chart of expenses, the user may want to only show expenses between two dates, or may want to sort the expenses by category. One way to provide such functionality is to sort or filter the data before binding it to the chart. Alternatively, you can bind the original data to the chart and then instruct the Chart control to sort the data, or to apply a filter. This article shows how to use these sorting and filtering capabilities. Read on to learn more! Read More >

Want To Buy - Do you have a Variax USB Interface to sell?
Like (0)
I bought a used Variax 600 (great guitar!) and it came with everything except the USB Interface. It did come with the Workbench software, but not the Workbench USB interface. Maybe someone out there upgraded to the new variax or bought an X3 or HD POD and no longer needs the USB interface? If so, please email me firstname.lastname@example.com so we can work out a deal.
the 600 didn't come with the interface, and the software was always free to download...
you can still get the workbench interface new... did a quick search:

Sixers' Andrew Bynum practices, gives 'visions of what might have been'
PHILADELPHIA — Andrew Bynum's participation in Friday's practice came about somewhat matter-of-factly, 76ers coach Doug Collins said.
"We went 5-on-0 and he said, 'Do you mind if I get in and play a little bit?' So I said, 'No, go out there and play and see how you feel,'" Collins said of Bynum Saturday, before the Sixers hosted Miami.
"It's amazing. Just him standing out there, he distorted the whole practice. You get visions of what might have been. You throw the ball in the post and — first of all, we don't do that, and when we did, it was five guys on him. It was like, 'You shoot. No, you shoot. No, you shoot.'"
Bynum earlier in the week cited a continuing pain in his left knee, which he believed would keep him from practicing with the Sixers for another one to two weeks. That he jumped into an ongoing session with the team Friday was somewhat unexpected. The injured center had been relegated to post-practice workouts with trainers and assistant coaches, taking stationary shots without much lift.
While encouraged by Bynum's willingness to jump right in, Collins said there's plenty of space between Bynum's first practice and his first game. He hasn't played since May 2012, in a Western Conference semifinal series with the Los Angeles Lakers.
"How did Andrew look in practice? He looked like a guy who hadn't played in nine months. That's what he looked like," Collins said. "He felt good to be out there. I don't think there's any bells or whistles set off now that he's close to playing."
With Bynum's participation comes good news and bad news.
First, the good: "I think the good part was he said it was fun to be out there again," Collins said of Bynum.
And, the bad? "The problem is we've got six games in nine days. There aren't going to be practices. It's not like he's going to be able to get out and practice with us."
Sixers general manager Tony DiLeo said "there was contact" in the portion of practice in which Bynum took part, another progression for a guy who's been doing plenty of solitary workouts. But beyond that, Collins said he wasn't getting into "semantics." Continued...
"I don't want to be the messenger," Collins said. "I think you need to talk to the guy. They shoot messengers."
Bynum was unavailable for comment.
Newly acquired guard Charles Jenkins, who wasn't with the team Friday, arrived in time for Saturday's game. Jenkins, wearing No. 31, took an open locker stall between Evan Turner and Jrue Holiday.
Miami coach Erik Spoelstra said Jrue Holiday, who he coached last weekend at the All-Star Game, played the part of a first-timer at the NBA's showcase midseason game.
"We liked how curious he was," Spoelstra said of Holiday. "We had an opportunity to spend two days with him. And he asked a lot of questions — about our guys, what their routine is, what they do on gamedays.
"When you watch the film, he's been getting better every single year."

Nigeria's press freedom record is on the decline.
For the first time since 2008, when CPJ began publishing its annual Impunity Index, Nigeria has made the list of the "worst nations in the world for deadly, unpunished violence against the press."
Nigeria's press freedom record is on the decline.
For the first time since 2008, when CPJ began publishing its annual Impunity Index, Nigeria has made the list of the "worst nations in the world for deadly, unpunished violence against the press."
Lagos, Nigeria, April 19, 2013--Two Nigerian journalists and their employer have been charged with forgery in connection with their publication of a memo reported to be from President Goodluck Jonathan, according to news reports. If convicted, the journalists could face life terms.
Lagos, Nigeria, April 17, 2013--The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns a recent decision by the Nigerian government to ban the exhibition and distribution of a documentary film on corruption in the state's management of oil wealth, "Fuelling Poverty."
Lagos, Nigeria, April 10, 2013--Nigerian police should stop harassing the staff of the leading independent daily Leadership over a story critical of President Goodluck Jonathan, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
On Monday, police in the capital Abuja summoned four Leadership journalists for questioning over an April 3 story entitled "Outrage Trails Presidential Directive on Tinubu, APC," according to the newspaper. The story reported on public criticism of Jonathan following Leadership's publication a day earlier of a purported presidential memorandum in which Jonathan allegedly laid out plans to increase petrol prices and sabotage a merger of opposition political parties ahead of the 2015 elections by targeting their leaders' business interests.New York, March 4, 2013--The Committee to Protect Journalists condemns a decision by Nigeria's media regulatory body to shut down a radio station in connection with a broadcast that questioned the local government's motives in an anti-polio vaccination program.
Abuja, Nigeria, February 15, 2013--Authorities should halt their harassment of a Nigerian journalist whose paper published allegations of extrajudicial detentions being carried out by the country's special army unit, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today.
Armed officers of Nigeria's Joint Task Force and members of the State Secret Service (SSS) raided the Kaduna home of Musa Muhammad Awwal, an editor of the Hausa-language weekly Al-Mizan, early on Thursday, according to news reports. The agents seized Awwal's laptop and phone and took him into custody, saying they had been told to bring him to Abuja, the capital, Al-Mizan Editor-in-Chief Ibrahim Musa, said in a press release. The officers did not cite a reason for the detention or produce a warrant, Abdulmumin Giwa, an editor at Al-Mizan, told CPJ. Giwa also said that the Nigeria Union of Journalists had confirmed that Awwal was being held by the SSS.

September 3rd: '7Days of Chocolate Reviews' - Edition 85 - Lily O'Brien's Uglies
Hi All,
I hope you will all agree that it's been a pretty cool week on the site where I've managed to fill the review slots with new product offerings from Mars, Thornton's and Nestle.
Mars Triple Choc - See HERE
Thorntons Bakewell Tart - See HERE
Quality Street My Purple Bar - See HERE
The arrival of a new season has brought about vast amounts of NPD - being totally honest with you guys I could have filled these slots several times over with various other products sent my way in the last week or so. You will notice today that I even managed to fill 'Snack of the Week' with another new set of products from Lily O'Briens.
Suffice to say it is really busy times for me at the moment. The site is attracting a record number of visitors and comments and I can only thank all of you who continue to provide constant feedback and your own thoughts on whatever I'm reviewing.
Please do make sure you are visiting the site regularly and contributing. You are what make the site worth the effort so please endeavor to spread the ChocolateMission word. As a side note the ChocolateMission Twitter feed is being used more and more by myself - Sign up to it HERE.
Some good news this week - Hotel Chocolat have their 50% sale on right now!! Get involved by clicking HERE (yes that is an affiliate embedded link! It helps support the site so please use it).
Have great weekends - Oh and don't forget to visit the news page!!
SNACK OF THE WEEK ..... a new part of '7Days of Chocolate Reviews' which will feature any manner of snacking product I have been products munching on in the week
As I stated above in my Site Update today, Snack of the Week consists of yet another two new products you should be seeing appear on retailer shelves near you soon. Indeed, Lily O'Briens have decided to extend it's recently launched 'Uglies' range further afield than it's Irish homeland and extend distribution to the UK. This Uglies range consists of two varieties - Their Honeycomb Crunch and Cocoa Cookies. I was lucky enough to receive some single pack samples of both - my very brief thoughts on them are below:
Lily O'Brien's Honeycomb Crunch
Kcal ??? Fat ??? Carbs ???
'Honeycomb and wheat scrunchies smothered in milk chocolate'
This single piece 20.0g chocolate looked appetitisng split in half and there was evidence of copious amounts of both the promised honeycomb and wheat cereal pieces. Essentially this was very similar in proposition to the Cadbury Crunchie Clusters (See HERE) and frankly it didn't taste that far apart from them either. The chocolate was obviously differentiated from the Cadbury alternative in that it was a touch less sugary but with less distinctive in it's milky taste - the melt was also a lot thinner in comparison to Dairy Milk. Chocolate aside the honeycomb and cereal delivered exactly in line with expectations - sweet honey led flavors burst out from their respective crunchy crisp textures. Pleasant but frustratingly small and moreish.
6.8 out of 10
Lily O'Briens Uglies Cocoa Cookie
Kcal ??? Fat ??? Carbs ???
'Cocoa cookie pieces smothered in milk chocolate'
This was another 20.0g single piece chocolate that was very similar to above not only in proposition but also product delivery. In a nutshell this simply swapped the honeycomb and wheat cereal, for chocolate biscuit pieces. In terms of taste these Uglies Cocoa Cookie chocolates were far less sweet than the above and their chocolatey flavour impact left a longer lasting impression in the mouth. The flavour longevity was longer, however their small size subsequently made them similarly unsatisfying.
7.2 out of 10
Hey forget what I say :D What do I know :D You know I'm always keen to hear what you guys make of these. Drop me a line with your thoughts I'm interested to hear from you.

Maybe your going to correct me but I thought the whole point of snack of the week was that you featured something random you enjoyed eating in the last 7 days?

Thanks for the review this week Jim. It's amazing you managed to find so many new chocolates to put up this week. Looks to me like these companies introduce all their chocolates at the same time for some reason. I wonder why that is?

I wish I still had friends living in Ireland :( They always used to send me over bars of dairy milk when I asked them to. Its so much better than the stuff we have to put up with here (I like in England btw).
I saw your review of the Irish Dairy Milk an thought it was pretty much spot on. I would have been brave enough to give it a higher rating but I understand why you didn't as its going to down the individual as to whether they like the thicker feel. - September 03, 2011
- Ruth said...
Your review was so right! The new mars bar is imense.
- September 03, 2011
Im probably over thinking this but why are they called Uglies? I see someones called them dog turds (LMAO btw!!) but personally I don't think they look bad at all. There are far worse looking chocolates imo.
- September 03, 2011
No one does reviews of new things quicker than Jim does. Thanks mate.

Lol its such a load of arse. You have to wonder where these people get their inspiration. - September 03, 2011
Its so blatant these have been made for children. Its perhaps not the relevant how you rate them Jim. I'm thinking they have been made for little people with smaller tummys than yours lol.

Its nice to know I can mark these out as ones I should be avoiding. They don't look horrible but they don't sound anything special either.

No Sneijder in at united them Jim? You must have been disappointed with that, it looked for all the money on the cards the whole time. Speaking of footie, did you see England last night? I thought they were well impressive. Ashley Young and Rooney have quite the formidable partnership already.

Well bang goes my theory that all SOTW things have to be made in america ;) lol the only thing tieing them together when I look at all the old ones is that you got them in the US and that american soda company you bang on about.

The website for those Uglies things is pretty well designed for such crappy chocs. Lol honestly take a look its pretty swish for such a small line that isn't going to stay around.
- September 03, 2011
Regarding the ugly things I don't see them turning up any trees. For starters they don't look anything special and if you say they taste as average as they do then they are hardly going to have anyone come back for more. I keep saying this too often but you just wonder why they bother half the time.

The big news for me yesterday was that I finally got one of those bloomin triple chocolatey mars bars to try.
My thoughts on it were mirror image your own but I think your rating was to high for the mars to begin with (7/10 is more realistic to me). - September 03, 2011
Just give up on LOBs Jimbo. You've not ever rated any of their chocolates high. They are just annoying and taking up your review time. Forget about them now please.

Before anyone checks and calls me up on it I know im guilty of asking Jim to review these. Sorry! They looked nice on their website.
- September 03, 2011
You should have just given up after the mars bar you had on Monday. Everything else hit the skidders in terms of scores lol.
- September 03, 2011
I would try the ones with honeycomb in but I would be less bothered by the silly cocoa biscuit one. The word generic says everything about that one I think.

Then you won't need to use Serial Bridge at all.

You're not the biggest dude out there. Whenever humor fails to disarm the situation, you need to go to the next level - confusion. That's when you go nuts and destroy something nearby. Maybe you grab the drink out of an on-lookers hand and throw it as hard as you can at a wall; just something to make that dude wonder what the heck is going through your mind. After that, just stand there muttering inaudibly to yourself and let him get a good look at the Overlay Destroyed Colours tee from We are the Superlative Conspiracy.

SlmMail: transports to send emails with Zend\Mail
Yesterday, I released the Release Candidate number 1 of SlmMail. SlmMail provides API implementations of the largest email service providers. So if your sendmail or SMTP fails, include SlmMail and offload the risk of sending emails to others. In the last years, emails must be secured with all kind of mechanisms like SPF, DKIM and DMARC. It just costs a lot of time and knowledge to maintain your email stack, so that's why email service providers comes to help.
SlmMail has implemented the API of various of the largest players in the field:
- AlphaMail
- Amazon SES
- Elastic Email
- Mailgun
- Mandrill
- Postmark
- Postage
- Send Grid
The main benefit of SlmMail is these integrations are possible without any modification to your message objects or service layer! If you handled the transport with dependency injection (as you should do!), then you simply inject another Transport implementation. And guess, it works out of the box.

UNCG to start outdoor season at UNCW Seahawk Invitational
UNCG at UNCW Seahawk Invitational, March 11-12, Wilmington, N.C., Harold Greene Track & Field Complex
- After a strong indoor track season, UNCG will looks to build upon its success as they open the outdoor track & field season at the UNCW Seahawk Invitational on Friday and Saturday at the Harold Greene Track & Field Complex.
- The meet will get under way on Friday at 11 a.m. and will wrap up with the 5,000 meter race at 5:30 p.m. Competition will resume on Saturday at 10 a.m. and the meet will end at 4 p.m. with the 4x400 meter relay.
- At the Southern Conference Indoor Championships two weekends ago, UNCG came away with a pair of league titles. Ashley Schnell became the first women's runner in school history to win a SoCon indoor crown as she earned top honors in the 3,000 meters after running a time of 9:52.39. Schnell also joined teammates Shaina Sumney, Shannon Hall and Kerry Hartman to win the SoCon title in the distance medley relay.
- Also at the SoCon Indoor Championships, the Spartans had a trio of runners who earned All-Freshman Team honors. Kenny Hinman led the group as he earned All-Freshman honors not only in the 3,000 meters, but in the 5,000 meters as well. Teammate Paul Katam joined Hinman on the All-Freshman Team honors in the 5,000 meters, while Kelly Montague was named to the All-Freshman Team in the mile.
- On Feb. 12 at the Tiger Paw Invitational, Ashley Schnell broke the school record in the 800 meters at the Tiger Paw Invitational. Her time of 2:19.07 was nearly three seconds better than the previous school record set in 2008. The women's distance medley relay team also set a new school record by nearly 12 seconds.
- Back on Feb. 5, Ashley Schnell was the lone Spartan to compete at the Meyo Invitational. At the meet, she set another school record as she broke the previous mark in the 3,000 meters by just under 10 seconds with a time of 9:39.73. Her time was good enough for seventh place in the seeded race at the prestigious event.
- For her efforts at the Meyo Invitational, Schnell was named the Southern Conference Co-Athlete of the Week for women's indoor track. She shared the award with College of Charleston's Dena O'Brien.
- UNCG also competed at the Niswonger Invitational, where a majority of the team competed. Joey Thompson had a nice showing at the meet as he was edged out in the 3,000 meter race to earn runner-up honors after running a 8:40.20.
- Paul Katam also had a nice showing on the men's side at the Niswonger as he finished in fourth place in the 5,000 meters. His time of 14:57.40 was the second-best time in school history in the event, just seven seconds off teammate Mike Koech's school record he set last season.
- Kerry Hartman and Shaina Sumney set the third- and fourth-best time in the 3,000 meters at the Niswonger for the women's team. Hartman finished in fourth place in a time of 10:13.07, while Sumney came in seventh place after completing the race in a time of 10:24.21.
- At the Liberty Open, Schnell shattered the previous school record in the mile. Schnell ran a time of 5:00.68 to claim first place in the event and beat Jess Weber's 2006 school record by over 13 seconds.
- Shaina Sumney also broke one of Weber's school records last weekend as she sent a new top mark in the 800 meters by winning the event. Her time of 2:20.60 bested Weber's time by 1.15 seconds that she set in 2008.
- The Spartan men also had a nice showing at the Liberty Open as the team came away with a 1-2 finish in the mile. Thompson edged out teammate Jermaine Coore by just three tenths of a second as they ran a 4:24.95 and a 4:25.22, respectively.

Financial News
RBS Boss: Spring Cleaning Drives £5.16bn Loss
The Royal Bank of Scotland boss has said "spring-cleaning" continues after his firm reported a pre-tax loss in 2012 of £5.16bn.
RBS chief executive Stephen Hester said: "This company is going through a pretty thorough spring-cleaning. It is a pretty dusty job.
"We are spring-cleaning this house and it is looking shinier."
But the markets reacted swiftly and by close of trading shares on the FTSE 100 were down 6.6%, at 323p.
The bank's £5bn-plus loss was in part due to provisions RBS has made for customer redress for payment protection insurance (PPI) mis-selling and other so-called bad practices.
It said the annual return was impacted heavily by a £4.64bn "accounting charge for improved own credit" as bond repurchase value on cash market credit spreads rose 340 basis points.
However, the firm's bankers will still share a bonus pool of £607m - including £215m for investment bankers.
In 2011 the total bonus pot was around 25% higher, at £789m.
When asked to justify the £607m payout, Mr Hester said: "We are a very big company so the numbers end up being substantial, but they are much smaller than other banks.
"We believe that we are doing a responsible job on bonus restraint while acknowledging our staff are badly needed."
The bonus reduction was done to help recoup cash to pay for its recent Libor-rigging settlement with UK and US authorities.
Last month RBS reached an agreement with the Financial Services Authority and US authorities over Libor and other rate fixings to include penalties of £381m.
Ulster Bank, which was hit by massive IT woes similar to NatWest last year, made a loss of £1.04bn in 2012.
RBS saw reduced income in its UK retail arm, its UK corporate division, international banking and at Ulster, while income for private wealth and US arms remained flat.
Mr Hester admitted 2012 had been a "chastening" year to "put right past mistakes", with losses up significantly from £1.2bn in 2011.
The company revealed it took a £450m charge in the last three months of 2012 over PPI mis-selling, taking its cumulative provision to £2.2bn.
By December 31 a total of £1.3bn had been paid out in redress over the scandal.
The bank said: "Our target is for 2013 to be the last big year of restructuring. There will be important work still to do, but an increasingly sound base from which to work.
"As the spotlight shifts to the 'new RBS' post restructuring, we are determined that it will show a leading UK bank striving to be a really good bank."
RBS saw changed fortunes in its core business, with retail and commercial sector income down 6% but markets up 68%.
The bank added: "RBS is four years into its recovery plan and good progress has been made. We are a much smaller, more focused and stronger bank.
"By serving customers well RBS can become one of the most respected, valued and stable of banks. That is our goal."
In its annual report the bank, which was bailed-out in Britain's biggest ever corporate disaster, said there is an intention to float an estimated 25% of its stake in US banking arm Citizens.
This move was welcomed by Chancellor George Osborne who said: "The Government's strategy is for RBS to be a stronger and safer bank, which in time can be returned to full private ownership.
"I have been very clear that I want to see RBS as a British-based bank, focused on serving British businesses and consumers, with a smaller international investment bank to support that activity rather than to rival it."
what do you think?
Lorgar Aurelian
That's our money that's paying these bonuses. I want my money back.
shaun spencer
As ive said on another post here, this bonuses are groteque in the current financial climate.GROTESQUE.
Paul Martin
Look at the bonus pot......lol. Don't forget, this is a Thatcherite government. Come on, try and blame this one on labour....i dare you.
Donald Plimsoll
What tax do they pay on these bonuses or is it tax free? or paid into an off shore account??
That's good in that no bonuses should be paid, NONE at all! We can't blame this on any political party, just the banks extremely poor regulation and monitoring sysytem.
gary slatter
No profit, no bonus! Difficult concept for our political masters!!!
happymike CHESTER
The GOOD old common Market want`s to put a limit on Banker`s bonuses to stop the crazy risk taking by traders. Guess who is against it .
Bill Candlish
I'm not getting this, surely if the RBS makes a loss and the staff still get a bonus payment, should we as shareholders not get at least the same amount ? £607m / 60m that will do nicely thanks

I don't like who I am.
I don't like who I'm becoming.
I want, no I need to remake myself.
I've become bitter, cynical, hateful.
I have unfulfilled dreams.
I have a body that isn't worth a damn.
I don't know how to change any of this.
One step at a time, knowing that there is no "instant transition" button and that it will be tough.
What are those dreams?
What does this man you want be do with his day? How does he respond to people and situations?
What makes your body like it is? What would make it like you want it to be?
Replace bad habits with good one through discipline. Its ok to not be perfect every single moment of the day, but don't beat yourself up for fucking up, just be aware of the shortcomings and make sure to avoid them tomorrow.
This will take years but it will be worth it. You can and you will, man. Be excellent.
My dreams are to travel, finish college, start a business, to get in shape and get active. Write a book is the only dream I'm working on right now. I have so many different things I want to do with my life.
I want my day to be scheduled and set by me. I want to wake up and have breakfast, exercise, write, work, have lunch, write, work, maybe exercise again, and then retire for a relaxing evening with friends, or go out and do something.
What makes my body like it is, is years of inactivity and overeating. What would make it like I want to be is years of exercise and insanely hard work. Or surgery, but I'm not a fan of that. And even with years of exercise and hard work I don't know that I'll fit into the mold I want.
I'm slowly working to achieve that. I'm trying to quit drinking soda.
Thanks for replying.
There is a whole school of psychotherapy based on listing ten adjectives describing how you view yourself, ten adjectives describing how others view you, and ten adjectives describing how you want to be. The psychologist then helped you devise plans to help you develop and grow into the person that you want to be. This is usually handled like a visual "game" since games exist in all cultures as a tool to teach complicated processes. It is better suited to be a self help therapy than most beginning with a chalk or dry erase board on a wall where you cannot ignore these three circles with adjectives written in them so that you are motivated to try and improve how you see yourself and how others see you becoming the man that you want to be.
Cutting out sodas is a good start. Starting easy regular exercises like walking, stairs, tow lifts, grippers, etc... can help get you moving more later. Find a physical activity that you can enjoy with a passion like racket ball, fencing, archery, biking, hiking, scuba, ax throwing, etc... If you are having fun then it will not be a chore and you will develop more life skills worth writing about.
Plan B - Enlist. Drill sergeants can be amazing "life coaches" and are experts in Nietzcheian therapy.
Besides pointing out the aspects of your persona that you don't like, you should also mention those that you're comfortable with....just a thought I had while reading your post. There are some things I don't like about myself, either. There used to be more, but I've been working hard to change that. Then again, I always try to understand what it is about myself that I wouldn't change...what makes me who I am.
Sounds like you need to set S.M.A.R.T goals
SMART Goals are Specific
that are Rewarding
and Timely
Write 5 goals that are inspired in the dreams that you have for yourself.
ex. I want to get into shape (Great Dream!/Lousy Goal)
S.M.A.R.T goal: I will get into better shape by running 30 minutes three days a week
Choose one of the five goals. Once you have conquered that goal, move on to the next. Don't be too hard on yourself, no one is perfect and the path to success is paved in failure. Some of the Dreams/Goals that you have require a huge amount of discipline, devotion and hard work. The goals that you write SHOULDN'T end at their completion. They should transition into lifestyle choices over time.
SMART objectives are a great guideline. Used them much in work, but we could all use them more in our personal lives I expect.
Another version is: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely.
The "I don't like who I'm becoming" line is worrisome. We all have things within us that we don't like.
How about one thing at a time?
I was overweight but without muscles, I smoked, I wasn't outgoing (borderline antisocial). I stopped smoking. A year later, I started riding bikes, a year or two after that I started learning how to eat healthier. I relapsed and smoked another couple years. Now I'm back to no smoking (3 or 4 years without now) and am now working on building some muscles.
It takes effort to take care of ourselves. Pick what you think is the easiest trait to work on and making a real effort. Don't worry about the other stuff yet.
Works pretty good for me!
You have probably heard the phrase act as if. Watch the clip from boiler room where vin diesel gives the speech. Surprisingly its true, act as if youre happy and you'll soon find you are happy. Also act confident nad confidence will come.
We have all been where you are at the important thing is recognizing it and doing something to change what you don't like about yourself. You don't like who you are or who you are becomming. Get an idea of who you want to be, the qualities you want to have and start today trying to act like that persno and it will become second nature to you.
You dont like your body, join a gym and start working out, its amazing how quick you see progress and thats very motivating.
Also, I'm not knocking you because we all come here for advice but many of your posts seem to echo the fact you aren't happy with your life, your job, your gf, etc. Don't let yourself wallow in self pity make a point of doing things to change your situation.
Victor, your posts have taken on a direction that is starting to concern me. They're trending towards the negative, problems with self image, and a number of other negative things that, frankly, are not healthy for you or those around you. So, let's try to address them. "Nip it in the bud."
I don't like who I am.
I don't like who I'm becoming.
These two are related, and frankly I'm looking at them as the more positive. Yep, positive. Here's why.
You recognize that you have faults and flaws. Well, duh. We all do. Not a single one of us is perfect.
And, you don't like the man you're becoming...so that means you recognize that change is possible, and is happening. Bravo!
Do you know how many people are unable to accept even the possibility of change *ever* happening? You already know it happens. Now it's just an issue of changing its direction. You've already had your first epiphany!
I want, no I need to remake myself.
This sounds good. It also sounds overwhelming. There's an ancient proverb, that even the longest journey begins with but a single step. It's true. Baby steps, Victor.
Or, you could do a complete break in one step, but that doesn't usually work for most people. So we're back to baby steps.
We've a number of subforums for men undertaking a number of life changing activities, including weight loss/exercise. That's the one I'm going through, myself. If you'd like, I'd be happy to act as an accountability buddy...but only if you do the same thing for me. It's got to be mutually beneficial for it to work. We'd both check in with each other, regularly, and report progress. It might actually be helpful, especially to others, if we did it as an AoM blog...document it for both of us, for posterity!
I've become bitter, cynical, hateful.
So you're unhappy, and your unhappiness is making you un-happier. Yeah, didn't see that one coming. (yes, that's sarcasm)
I have unfulfilled dreams.
So, work towards fulfilling them. or, take a step back, and get in more of a position where you can approach those dreams.
Dreams should be long term goals. And you're still pretty young. Take the long view.
I have a body that isn't worth a damn.
I don't know how to change any of this.
See above.
If you don't like who you are, then change who you are becoming. It's not easy and it's a process. Make a big list of goals, then focus on smaller parts of the goal. For example, losing weight as a general goal. Then make some smaller ones.
1. Starting from now, I cut out all food that have no nutritional value (sodas, snack cakes, chips, etc.).
After you do that, then move onto:
2. I exercise 3 times a week. It should be some form of cardio appropriate to your body. For example, when I was 315 lbs, I couldn't run. In October I walk/ran a 5k and I weighed 250. I weigh 240 now and I run 1.5 miles 3 times a week, training to run the whole 5k and eventually 10k by March. Now, for you, you may be able to run. I got my start swimming and cycling. After you exercise 3 times a week, move onto:
3. I will track what I eat. Go to loseit.com and determine your TDEE. Start eating an appropriate amount of calories. Maximize your food by eating whole grains, lean meats, olive oil, lots of leafy greens. Once you do that, then:
4. Work out every day. A form of cardio every day, and strength training thrice a week.
5. A major goal - say running a 5k or biking a long race.
For losing weight the right way with no pseudoscience, go to scoobysworkshop.com.
Now, maybe you'd like to fix personality issues. Being cynical, bitter, and hateful probably stem from being unhappy. So I'd suggest a two pronged approach. First, start keeping a journal. Get out your miseries there. Write down when you are nasty to people and what you wish you'd done. Start acting like you're not that way - seriously, it'll get you in the habit. Read books by men who you'd like to emulate.
The second prong is to start fulfilling your dreams! Again, small ones first, big ones later. Want to travel? Plan a daytrip to a nearby place. Then a weekend in a city a state over. Since you remind me of me, I'll share my story.
In 2008, I flunked out of university. I was single and only had the fleetingest experiences with the opposite sex. I had no job, no money, two friends (one whom I would grow away from), and I moved back in with my mom and brother. I was nasty, very opinionated and rude. I had no style.
First, I went back to school and started working towards my history degree. I became friends with a professor who gave me a reference - I started working at my university's writing lab. I became friends with my cousin and we started doings hikes and walks together. I started tracking my weight, cutting out soda. After I lost some weight, I started traveling. First day trips to the shore, then up to Boston. I started volunteering with the Coast Guard Auxiliary which gave me a greater purpose than myself. By 2011 I had dropped 50 lbs, started dating again, started dressing nicer, grew a circle of friends, had travel plans, got elected to a leadership role in the Auxiliary.
This past year I lived in Rome for 6 weeks and toured Italy, had my first real relationship (which ended amicably, growing my circle of friends), and ran that 5k.
It's a matter of making small changes. You sound like you've hit the point where you're fed up enough to make some real change. Use that anger constructively. Make 3 goals you can achieve by the end of 2012. Achieve them. Then make 3 more and go from there.
We all believe in you Vic!
since when is cynicism a bad thing?

Following the DOJ tell you a lot about this administration.
THE Justice Department has said it won't prosecute Wall Street firm Goldman Sachs or its employees in a financial fraud probe.
In a written statement, the department said it conducted an exhaustive investigation into allegations brought to light by a Senate panel investigating the 2008-2009 financial crisis.
"The department and investigative agencies ultimately concluded that the burden of proof to bring a criminal case could not be met based on the law and facts as they exist at this time," the department said.
But the department added that if additional or new evidence were to emerge, it could reach a different conclusion about prosecuting Goldman if warranted.
Nothing to see here, move along
Following the DOJ tell you a lot about this administration.
Damn straight....^^
I'm shocked. Never saw this coming. At all.
(Goldman Sachs is a major Obama [and Romney, IIRC] donor.)
This is a sad day for the justice system. I'm sad to see the state of the economy we're in right now who probably won't ever get to see justice.
Oh gee now's there's a shock...I don't think I can handle this.
Is this going to turn into an anti-Obama circle jerk?
... or are you going to rush off now and join OWS?
Why close the revolving door?
Edwin. Sutherland.
stop with your class warfare talk!
these people at goldman are job creators, and by putting them in jail would only hurt our precious free economy.
in all seriousness, the amount of money that these banks funnel to politicians on both sides is astounding. They made themselves a nice place in washington that no matter what party wins they will always get favored.

They're singing, dancing and clowning in the rain
Last updated at 15:18, Sunday, 19 August 2012
IT may have rained but there were still large crowds to be seen on the opening day of the Masquepony Festival yesterday.
The festival in Cartmel Village and on the racecourse, is a new family-friendly event which showcases contemporary circus, music, comedy and magic acts.
Masquepony kicked off yesterday afternoon with a free display of street performers taking over the centre of Cartmel village.
Jan Shorrock, of Lakes Alive, who organised the festival, said: "It's a shame about the rain but it's early days and tomorrow's weather is supposed to be better for the banquet.
"There has been loads of support from the village and there have been big crowds despite the drizzle." One of the acts that went down well was Artizani, a solo show performed by James Macpherson that mixed silent-movie clowning with acrobatics.
Maggie Taylor Woods, from St Helens, was very impressed by the show, describing it as "fantastic''.
Megan Owen, 20, from Bolton, also really enjoyed the performance.
She said: "I'm a big fan of street performers and I came up for the weekend especially to see the festival. I'm camping on the racecourse and can't wait for the banquet tomorrow."
The most popular act was u Chapeau Magique, who held origami hat-making workshops in the village square.
They drew a large crowd and for their acts they handed out sheets of brown paper to the watching children and adults and then showed how to make their own masterpieces.
Gail Best, from Grange, who brought her two children along, said: "We loved the hat making, but we didn't love the rain!
"The festival is great for the area and local people and it's nice the festival is so close to where I live.
"If the weather is good we want to come back tomorrow and I would love to see the festival again next year."
l For a full round-up of the Masquepony Festival and more pictures, see Monday's Evening Mail.

The late Japanese pop artist Nagi Noda created these bold animal-inspired hats from human hair years ago, but her collection has proven timeless, as people are still crazy about them. Succumbing to surgical complications from a car accident, Noda was only 35 years when she died, but her art is still inspiring eclectic artists worldwide to treat their tresses as an ever-inventive canvas. Click through to see which creatures she beautifully crafted atop the noggin.
Nagi Noda had a bona fide knack for hair art as well as other bizarre works. Her technique is exquisite and boasts hours of tedious work:
Noda's hair hat collection is by far her most famous work, and is a legacy that will indeed carry on her outrageous style.
Nagi Noda even had her last outfit planned out. She was laid to rest "in her Mark Ryden dress, Chanel boots, perfect makeup with Viktor & Rolf lace black eye lashes." See a comprehensive look of Noda's work here.
What do you think of Nagi Noda's animal hair hats? Do you experiment with different hairstyles yourself?

I've been using crossword compiler for a while now, (vers 7) and just updated to version 8. I have a problem with my templates – they don't show in the "Create New Puzzle" screen when I start my program. And when I double click in Windows it doesn't know in which program it should open it. The mystery of it is, that when my technodude (i'm just a simple user) logged in with his admin-super duper rights he could open my templates and they also showed up in the "Create New Puzzle". I have full rights to the program-folder /Programs/Crossword Compiler" and anything in it, but it still doesn't show.
I tried "Open with.." and choose "Crossword compiler", but that didn't do me any good, either.
I tried to save a new template to see what happened, and I could do that. And It shows in the "Create...", but it don't show in my folder window.
I have quite a few templates I use, so I'm greatful if I don't have to do them over again, so if you can help me I will be most greatful.

I read this and thought ist was pretty interesting, so I thought I'd post it up here. I hope it helps someone out.
XPs Rebuild Command
"We talk a lot about fixes and tricks because a good many of us employ them daily. How many times have you had to fix a machine that comes up with a Missing Hall.dll error or some other Windows boot issue? I know most of the time I just run a repair and Im back up and running. Well there is a much easier way! There is a little known command in Windows that can fix a myriad of these problems much quicker."

1965 Grand Prix STV Rebuild Kit
STV Rebuild Kit
Suction Valves were used on most 60's and 70's GM Vehicles. They are mounted to the Evaporator's suction (top) outlet and regulate system pressures so as to prevent the Evaporator from freezing up.
The STV (Suction Throttling Valve) is a particular kind of Suction Valve used on many 1962-1966 GM vehicles, including the early 1965 Grand Prix. 1965 was a split year for Grand Prix air conditioning design with the Suction Valve on the early models being a Suction Throttling Valve and on the later a POA Valve.
This STV (Suction Throttling Valve) Rebuild Kit is for the early 1965 Grand Prix's and includes the valve body diaphragm, O-rings and screen clip.
If you prefer, we can rebuild your early 1965 Grand Prix Suction Throttling Valve for you.
Call or email us.
Tech Tip
A good indication that your Suction Valve has failed or is failing is a high low-side system gauge reading. This is either as a result of contaminants locking the valve or clogging the valve or valve failure. If you are converting to 134a, your Suction Valve will need to be recalibrated as by-pass pressures differ from that of R12. More on converting to 134a.
to discuss your needs
Air Conditioning Tip
If you are replacing your STV on an otherwise operating system, its failure is likely as a result of contaminants causing it to stick in the open position, forcing it to constantly by-pass. As is the case with any air conditioning system, flushing the system to insure that re-used parts do not contaminate newly replaced or restored parts and replacing or restoring the car's Filter-Drier are essential to avoid a repeat of the same problem.
All car air conditioning systems need a mechanism to keep the Evaporator from getting so cold that it freezes. In some systems, this mechanism is a thermostat. In the early model 1965 Pontiac Grand Prix's, it was an STV (Suction Throttling Valve). A thermostat prevents the Evaporator from freezing by cycling the Compressor on and off based on Evaporator temperature. An STV prevents the Evaporator from freezing by by-passing excessive system pressure. Note that in an STV type system like the early model 1965 Pontiac Grand Prix's, the Compressor runs constantly whenever the air conditioning system is operating.
Don't see what you're looking for? Need technical help? Call or email.

stinart, on Oct 7 2005, 04:16 PM, said:
tnx for your assist.
Take a look into the AMD64 folder of your nLited CD using the 6.67 driver package. Is there a file named "nvrdx64.sy_"?
Are you sure to have not corrupted files, when you downloaded and unzipped the driver packages?
If both answers are "Yes", try the following:
Create a new CD by using nLite 1.0 RC1, but this time use the SATARAID subfolder of the package 6.67. Before you integrate the SATARAID subfolder you should do the following:
1. copy the NVATAX64.INF (from the LEGACY folder) into the SATARAID subfolder and
2. make the changes within the TXTSETUP.OEM file (see above).
I am really sorry, but I cannot try it myself, because I have only a PC with an nForce4 chipset.
Please report about your results.

I'd never contribute to someone's honeymoon registry. The very thought of it makes my blood pressure go up.
Why do people feel that they're entitled to an exotic vacation for their honeymoon? No one paid for our honeymoon 8.5 years ago, and we still had a marvelous time. We were living in California, and we went to the Oregon coast for our honeymoon. One of the best things was that we'd both gotten enough time off from our jobs that we didn't have to rush, so we took our time.
then perhaps "comsumeables" might be fun.

Top Ten Ways to Know Fall Has Arrived in Texas | by Linda Brendle
All of us who live in the South have heard some version of this comment from our friends of a more northern persuasion:
"I couldn't live down here. I'd miss the change of seasons too much."
It's true that we don't always have the gradual Spring thaw with the first green sprigs peeking timidly through the muddy remnants of the last snow. Instead we go to bed one March night with nothing but bare branches in the yard and wake up with a riot of white blossoms on every pear tree. And we don't have a month or two to go through a slow transition from long johns to lightweight jackets to summer wear. Instead we go directly from boots and sweaters to shorts and sandals. But we usually get a day or two of beautiful weather when we can open the windows and air out the house before we shut ourselves in for the long, hot summer. (more…)

Marlborough Backpack Drive for Sandy Hook
The Marlborough Early Childhood Center is seeking items to fill 600 backpacks to send to Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
The Marlborough Early Childhood Center will be accepting donations to fill backpacks and remind students impacted by the tragedy that there is still good in the world.
"A friend who lives in Newtown, CT and whose daughter was in the first grade classroom next door to the tragic events has suggested that hand drawn pictures or notes of kindness, hope and encouragement be included in each backpack to help show the children that the good in the world outweighs the bad," said Samantha Locke, an ABA Technician, and Rebecca Zieminski, the Preschool Director in a letter released by the schools this week.
Many of the children had to leave all their school items in the school while they were evacuated. The items are being gathered for children in kindergarten through fourth grade. Items such as new pencils, paper, folders, crayons and markers are needed. The personal notes are encouraged.
A donation collection center will be set up at the Marlborough Early Childhood Center on Friday, December 28 between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
Organizers are asking that people bring their donated school items, letters, pictures and cards on Friday as the items will be delivered to Newtown on Saturday.

Newtown, Connecticut, has received so many gifts since the December 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary that a local official is kindly asking people to stop sending them. The mail office and workers just can't handle the volume.
"Our hearts are warmed by the outpouring of love and support from all corners of our country and world," Newtown First Selectman Patricia Llodra said.
She is asking anyone wishing to give the town condolences for the shooting, which left 20 children and eight adults dead, to donate to needy children and families in their own community.

I might suggest donating such needed supplies to the school systems locally, as there are many children who simply have insufficient resources to keep properly supplied, or to donate to educational outreach programs to areas and populations that normally cannot raise resources. Newtown is a very affluent community, with average incomes much higher than most.

It is also being reported by the Newtown Patch ( http://newtown.patch.com/articles/newtown-requests-halt-to-gifts-says-they-ll-become-sacred-soil ) that the town is asking for a halt to donations. I agree with your sentiment Paul and have reached out to see what the plan will be with the donations.

The only good thing about this Hotel is the location, other than that would not recommend staying here. Rooms are old: ours only had a hand-held shower head with no way to place on the wall, blow-dryer was broken, beds were uncomfortable, and furniture looked like it hadn't been replaced since 1960s. Another couple traveling with us had to wait... More
