Oct 3, 2011 at 9:36 UTC
That is it exactly.....
Too many phone calls and emails when there is an issue.
Users don't understand they are causing an extension in the problem by calling, emailing, and or trying to get you into a chat session about the issue.
I hate it when concentrating on a problem and getting pulled away to answer questions like when will this be fixed?
Well, if you had not pulled me away for 15 minutes, it would have been done 15 minutes earlier than it will now...

At my first IT job I had about a dozen people who would call to tell me that a server was down. All of them sat next to eachother and the first caller could have shared the knowledge of what was going on with his peers.
Or if any of them had read their e-mail they would have known...

Brilliant - thanks!

I would say " remind you of anyone you know " but the list would endless
Oct 3, 2011 at 11:02 UTC
when will it be fixed? as soon as I figure out what the issues is, then fix it.
could be 2 min could be a couple of days, right now I just found out i have a problem. and I also have to answer 100 phone calls about the same thing.

For many of us, chemistry is something we remember with groans from high school. Periodic Table of the Elements—what a pain to memorize, and what was the point, anyway? So how do you take a subject like chemistry and make it exciting, intriguing, and compelling? With her new book The Poisoner's Handbook, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Deb Blum has done just that. Blum takes a page from the "CSI" franchise, and moves that familiar narrative of crime, intrigue, and high tech bad-guy catching back into the early days of the 20th century. There, in jazz age New York, she chronicles the birth of forensic chemistry at the hands of two scientific and public health pioneers—the city's chief medical examiner Charles Norris, and his chemistry whiz side-kick Alexander Gettler. And while chronicling their poison-sleuthing careers, Blum also teaches quite a bit of science. Her book is a case study in science popularization, and one we should all be paying close attention to. Deborah Blum is a Pulitzer-prize winning science writer and has been a professor of journalism at the University of Wisconsin-Madison since 1997. Prior to that, she spent over a decade working as a science writer for the Sacramento Bee, where her series on ethical issues in primate research, "The Monkey Wars," won the 1992 Pulitzer. The Monkey Wars also became a book, and since then Blum has written numerous others: A Field Guide for Science Writers, Sex on the Brain, Love at Goon Park: Harry Harlow and the Science of Affection, and Ghost Hunters: William James and the Scientific Search for Life After Death. Blum has also written for numerous publications including The Los Angeles Times, The Boston Globe, and The New York Times. She was president of the National Association of Science Writers from 2002-2004, and currently serves on advisory boards to the Council for Advancement of Science Writing and the World Federation of Science Journalists.

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) yesterday disclosed that the Port Harcourt Refinery has again resumed operations with a daily production of five million litres of petrol.
Disclosing this during a monitoring exercise of fuel supply situation at petrol stations within Abuja and environs, the NNPC informed that that the refinery which came back on a team last week now produces up to five million litres of petrol daily.
While stating that it expects the Kaduna refinery to come back on stream next week, the NNPC said it will take advantage of the spring switch in refining activities of European petroleum refiners to stockpile petrol into strategic reserves for Nigeria.
The Group General Manager, Public Affairs of the NNPC, Garuba Deen Muhammad and Executive Director Supply and Distribution, Nigerian Petroleum Marketing Company (NPMC), Justine Ezeala, made these known while addressing journalists after the monitoring exercise.
However, a report released yesterday by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) detailing the actual average prices at which Nigerians bought petrol in the month of March, surprisingly showed that out of the 36 States, petrol sold at government regulated price of N87 per litre in Borno State alone for the Month of March, 2016.
The report titled Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) price watch revealed that in Lagos state, a litre of petrol sold for N90 while it was an average of N104 in the nation's capital, Abuja.
The report further showed Nassarawa State residents as paying the highest for petrol in the month of March 2016, with the product selling for an average of N166.67 per litre, followed by Cross Rivers and Sokoto states where it sold for N160. 36 and N160 a litre, respectively.
Furthermore, a litre of petrol sold at N146 b, N133.70 N132.09 respectively, at oil rich states of Bayelsa, Delta and Rivers as against the official price of N87.
The report which showed that the national average selling price for a litre of petrol aas N135.09 in the month of March, also revealed that the product sold for N114.98 in Ogun and N124.50 a litre in Ondo State.
Similarly, the product sold for N148 a litre in Abia and Akwa Ibom States while it sold for N156.67 in Bauch, N151.67 in Gombe, 139.75 in Kaduna, 143.96 in Imo State, N155 in Ebonyi and 133.50 in Adamawa State.

Calcutta, Feb. 18: After a hefty increase in tuition fees over the past year, Anglo-Indian schools in the state appear to be planning a fee freeze for the next academic session to placate an increasingly hostile government and contain public outrage.
Church officials today said heads of Anglo-Indian schools met in the city last week to discuss the freeze. We are actually more concerned with the discomfort of the guardians and parents who may find the fees steep. They will be able to breathe easy if the fees are not increased for a while, an official said.
The fee hike in the states 67 Anglo-Indian schools last year ranged between Rs 250 and Rs 700 per pupil. Increased with retrospective effect, the fees were paid in instalments in many schools.
They have just completed clearing the instalments. Though there is need for another round of fee hike, we have decided to give them some relief, a school principal said.
Though the schools under the Church of North India have decided not to raise the fees for the 2003-04 session, they are keeping their options open on the 2004-05 session.
Education officials said the proposed freeze arises out of a compulsion to keep the government, which has threatened to slash dearness allowance grants, in good humour.
We do not want to put additional pressure on the guardians, who are already burdened. But our decision to hike the fees must be viewed in the context of the governments slashing the dearness allowance grants to all the 67 schools, said Gillian DCosta Hart, principal of Welland Gouldsmith School and MLA representing the Anglo-Indian community.
Buddhadeb Bhattacharjees government, which pays nearly Rs 32 crore a year towards dearness allowance for teachers of Anglo-Indian schools, did not take kindly to the fee hike because the teachers continue to be paid poorly a point contested by the schools.
Sources close to school education minister Kanti Biswas said: We will not water down our objective of curtailing our expenditure on these schools because they have huge earnings by way of tuition and other fees.
The schools are debating the DA issue after the recent Supreme Court order allowing a state government greater say in the working of minority schools receiving financial assistance from it.

Earnings of Black and White Youth and Their Relation to Poverty
This paper examines the relation between youth employment and poverty for black and white families. An increase in the employment proportions of black men ages 16–19, which have lagged far behind their white counterparts, would reduce poverty among blacks to a moderate but meaningful degree. We provide evidence of a small positive feedback relation between black youth employment and family incomes that would magnify gains in both variables if either variable were increased. We also provide evidence that improvements in labor market conditions that affect youth employment, in the educational attainments of black youth, and in other policy-related variables would raise both youth employment and their family incomes.

I did the upgrade today and I love the new features since 4.7.
My only issue so far is the dashboard takes about 20 minutes to load for IE7.
It loads fine for Firefox 3.5 and opera 10.63 but even on the server it is installed on the IE7 load is 3 minutes until i can scroll up and down the page. Our directors have a Intel core 2 DUO with four GIGs ram running WIndows XP and the load was 15 minutes. With version 4.7, the load time was 30 seconds at most. Any ideas how to speed this up?
This topic was created during version 5.0.
The latest version is 7.5.00101.

Petes PC Repairs is an IT service provider.
i personally have it running on chrome (but i dont want everything running on chrome) so i made an application short-cut on desktop for it (already installed in chrome tools in basic install) that way chrome doesn't get in way of anything else
Dec 9, 2010 at 8:05 UTC
I have upgraded to version 5.06.0041 and restarted the server.
Internet Explorer still takes over two minutes to load the dashboard page while Firefix and Opera load in seconds.
Dec 13, 2010 at 7:28 UTC
Spicework support, I still need this issue fixed.
Dec 13, 2010 at 7:51 UTC
Clear the browsers cache. BTW, It`s recommended to use IE8 instead of 7 if you reallly need to use IE.
Dec 13, 2010 at 8:05 UTC
Clearing the browser cache did not change the load time. We have some older machines and IE8 will load them down even more then IE7.
The issue is that Firefox and Opera can load the Dashboard page fast and IE7 can not. Even once the Dashboard page is loaded, if you try and scroll down, it loack up again for about two minutes.
Dec 13, 2010 at 8:14 UTC
So it seems to be a problem with IE7 ;-)
Not sure if this works for you (taken from http:/
By disabling flash Spiceworks will load quicker on the cilent, this will not effect the server CPU useage
-> settings
-> advanced options
-> Looking for addiontal settings (at the bottom)
-> turn off flash"
Or you check if the flashplayer at these workstations are up do date (http:/
Dec 13, 2010 at 8:33 UTC
With out flash, the Dashboard is mostly useless.
Good call on the adobe flash player as I have checked and made sure we were up to date.
Dec 13, 2010 at 8:45 UTC
Maybe, you have a plugin which doesn`t work well with IE7 (eg. Ticket Gauge - doesn`t work with IE). Try to disable all plugins and reenable them one by one.
Dec 16, 2010 at 10:26 UTC
I tried disabling all plug ins. IE 7 still loads slow.
Dec 16, 2010 at 10:48 UTC
Did you try the new version too (See More Info)?
Not sure if this works for you.
Dec 16, 2010 at 11:06 UTC
I ahve already upgraded to the latest version and it did not fix the issue.
Dec 16, 2010 at 11:24 UTC
So I`m running out of ideas if you stand on IE7, sorry.
Dec 16, 2010 at 1:35 UTC
I want to thank you for all your help.
I am going to need input form Spiceworks engineers on this as we have not been approved to upgade to IE 8 as of yet.
Dec 17, 2010 at 2:30 UTC
I tire IE8 and now the desktop loads much quicker.
Firefox and Opera are still faster but at least we only have to wait a minutes for full load instead of 25 minutes on IE7.

Where were you when Brad Shoemaker finally finished COD: Modern Warfare: Mile High Club on Insanity difficulty?
I was in the kitchen getting a drink. #teambrad
In my bed 5 AM, with my gf sleeping next to me, dead tired and bummed that i had missed everything else of the Big live live show live..but then...then i witnessed this absolutely stunning moment. It was simply beautiful. Thank you Brad, thank you GiantBomb. Thank you everyone.
Checking my IPad while taking a shower.
I was screaming at my computer screen. It was worth it.
I was eating a sandwich and I almost choked as the glorious Brad stormed the cockpit with only a gun and his will a shot that motherfucker down #TeamBrad
Oh man the yell I let out when he did it, was so fucking loud. I was pumped.
in case you missed it: http://www.twitch.tv/giantbomb/b/332206742
I switched to the living room PC and when the video loaded up, he was on his final run and BOOM the doors swings open and I was yelling GO BRAD GO! I even stood up and clapped.
Thank god the windows weren't open.
I just had gotten home from school and work and after watching several of iterations of Brad pulling Brads, he suddenly made it to the VIP and my mouth was agape that entire moment he was getting ready to shoot the terrorist and when he finally hit him I smiled unlike I've ever smiled in a loooong time. That was classic moment!
Laid my laptop down on my bed and rested my eyes a bit, woke up to see the winning session.
In front of my computer rooting for Brad and then cheering as he beat it. Brought a tear to my eye.
I was screaming "HE DID IT! THAT SON OF A BITCH DID IT!"
Watching every glorious second, was sitting in my chair and stood up jumping up and down on the spot screaming "SHOOT HIIIIIIIIIIIIM!" and cheering Brad on before falling to my knees with a giant ass grin on my face.
I was at work, trying to get over some idiot yelling at me because he is an idiot. Then, he did it, and I am still pumped. #teambrad
I was eating dinner in the canteen...I'm so fucking pissed.
@DexterKid said:
in case you missed it: http://www.twitch.tv/giantbomb/b/332206742
I clicked this and began to watch and then I was like "No, I want to watch this in its full glory" I'm gonna take 9 hours sometime and watch the whole thing leading up to that glorious moment.
I was watching from my desk with unbreakable faith in our savior Brad.
Eating my roast lamb lunch with roasted vegetables and gravy (all the good stuff) at my desk, completely snubbing my family, because I didn't want to watch the stream on anything less than a fullscreened, proper monitor just in case. I nearly choked on a honeyed carrot.
All worth it!
Well it looks like Ryan is looking to make a team brad Tee for the giantbomb store. Would buy that in a flash!
Watching Brad complete that challenge made staying up all worth it. Have been awake since 8am yesterday (Friday), didn't finish work till 10pm last night, show started 3am locally and it's now 1pm (Saturday).
Best moment in GB history :D
Had my laptop streaming the magic while playing Gears 3 multiplayer. So close to unlocking Prescott. Stopped playing for about ten minutes to cheer on Mr. Shoemaker.
Getting ready to send an email to my English professor. I tabbed over just as Chariots was starting.

Which do you like most?
Iron Maiden a slightly bit more.
Have an opinion?
♪Listen to Iron Maiden maybeee... wiiith meeee... ooh oooh oh oo oooh♪
Haha, no, I don't know, I don't really listen to metal.
I really like Metallica. Enter Sandman is my favorite!
I love many metallica songs but not Enter Sandman
haha really? I love it.
I voted can't decide but I think I'd have to go with Metallica
I like neither
So sad :'(
An almost impossible choice, good sir.
Knowing James Hetfield's upbringing and background has helped me to develop a much greater appreciation of Metallica's sound and lyrics (I've been a Metallica fan for a LONG time, but recently started to learn more about Hetfield's origins and outlook).
However, I think that Iron Maiden has an approach that's simpler and more "anthemic". Bruce Dickinson has one of the definitive voices of heavy metal.
All told though, I think most metal bands today would do well to sound more like both bands rather than down-tuning their guitars, doing pinch harmonics, playing 10000000 BPMs, and screaming at the top of their lungs.
The greatest heavy metal band ever. Metallica has a couple good songs, but seem to be a bunch of tryhards to me.
iron maiden amongt those 2.. not my style generally though
darude - sandstorm
Maiden all the way

Hi everyone, i m currently working on object tracking for undergraduate final project.
i'm using regionprops to get bounding box for every object on my image. but... i just want to track single object, how to eliminate other object that i dont need ?
this is my code :
for i=1:1:193 %(number of image)
image=adaptivethreshold(im1,10,0.08,0); %additional adaptive threshold
SE = strel('square', 5);
biner_dilate=imdilate(image,SE); %pixel dilatation
biner_filter= bwareaopen(biner_dilate,150);
SE = strel('square', 20);
biner_dilate_2=imdilate(biner_filter,SE); %pixel dilatation
region=regionprops(biner_dilate_2); %regionprops
frame_count=strcat('frame ke :',int2str(i));
subplot(2,2,1); imshow(im1); title(frame_count);
subplot(2,2,2); imshow(image); title('adaptive threshold');
subplot(2,2,3); imshow(biner_dilate_2); title('test dilate 2');
subplot(2,2,4); imshow(biner_filter); title('filter');
subplot(2,2,1),rectangle('Position',[koordinat_x,koordinat_y,width_x,width_y], 'Edge', 'g', 'LineWidth',2);
hold on
hold off
How is it supposed to know which one of the dozens of blobs there is
the one that you want to keep? You have to tell it, by giving it
instructions that identify the blob you're interested in. It could be
thresholding on area, perimeter, intensity, etc. But whatever
characteristics your blob has that makes it unique from all other
blobs is what you have to program in there.

Lost at Sea going a mile again
ALBANY, Calif. - Northern California's leading trainer, Jerry Hollendorfer, is sitting pretty with his 3-year-olds.
The 3-year-old stars of his barn, Metatron, U S S Tinosa, Cappuchino, and Yougottawanna are all nominated to the Triple Crown. On Sunday at Golden Gate Fields, he will send out a nice 3-year-old filly, Lost at Sea, in the feature race.
"I like her," Hollendorfer said.
Lost at Sea will run in the one-mile allowance race coupled with Clever Dorcas, who has won two of her three starts at the distance. The pair will have five rivals, including the stakes-placed My Sand Dollar and Halo Tyra, a winner in her debut.
Lost at Sea was one of the horses Hollendorfer took to Arlington Park last summer when he won the training title there. She finished second in her debut in a six-furlong sprint on Aug. 15. Her next start was at a mile, and she faded badly.
Hollendorfer says now he may have miscalculated by trying a mile race in the filly's second start. But he says that she should run well at the distance.
"She's really bred for it," he said. "That's why we tried her the other time."
Lost at Sea returned to northern California with Hollendorfer last fall and won her next start, a six-furlong race at Bay Meadows on Sept. 26. She was second to the ill-fated Gloriously Golden, then third in a pair of six-furlong sprints at Golden Gate Fields before a brief freshener.
If Hollendorfer likes Lost at Sea, he really likes Metatron, who was a seven-length winner in his comeback Friday. He defeated Goodnews Bay, while running six furlongs in 1:09.18.
Metatron, a son of Silver Ghost, won his debut at Bay Meadows last spring. He did not win again as a 2-year-old but was second in the Hollywood Juvenile and the Best Pal (to Officer), both Grade 3 races. He was third to Officer in the Del Mar Futurity and third behind Siphonic and Harlan's Holiday in the Lane's End Futurity at Keeneland in Grade 2 races.
He was headed to the Breeders' Cup Juvenile but took ill.
In Friday's six-furlong sprint, Metatron broke alertly and was a wire-to-wire winner in a speed-laden field.
Hollendorfer didn't expect to win going wire to wire, but he said he wanted jockey Russell Baze "to get him out of there. I didn't want him in any position where he'd get pinned on the rail."
Hollendorfer said the colt would be pointed to the $200,000 El Camino. "He's got a good foundation," he said. "He's had plenty of works and this was a good tightener. This gives me plenty of time to get him ready for the El Camino."

We tried Flash on recommendation from another couple at our hotel. The food and service were both excellent. We visit Flash a couple of times every holiday and it is always very good value for money.

The restaurant look quite nice, but are situated close to the road. We ate grilled chicken and meat, it was really good taste. Staff were professional and service-minded.
Very nice place that I been with my friends from Nederlands. Cay on house and dessert free. Been there many times before even this was the best time.
The restaurant was classy and the interior also, but slow waitresses, small portions of food, and old bread did not match the expectations we had. Had to stop by BurgerKing on the way home, and the Whopper was really good.
Flash is a quality restaurant the service was excellent and the food a delight. The steak was gorgeous and plentiful. The place is immaculately inside and out a must try.

Are here and was very impressed by the free starters - absolutely massive bread and great dips, accompanied by salad. Food was good too and the waiters were very attentive.

Critical Hit is Marth's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and it is one of the most powerful in the game. The animation is that of a critical hit of a Lord from the 6th and 7th Fire Emblem games. It deals 60% damage. However, the percent generally does not matter, as the knockback from this attack is enough to KO any character at 0% under most normal circumstances, including Bowser (or multiple Bowsers at once). The power of this move is countered somewhat by its larger time frame in which to perform a dodge (the time during which Marth raises his sword), though it is still relatively fast. If it hits, the Fire Emblem HP gauge from the Super Famicom game is displayed with 60 hit points, and quickly drops to zero.
Until the attack animation completely ends, the entire sword carries the effect, power, and knockback, meaning that the attack can also hit anyone directly behind Marth when Marth swings his sword. Rolling around Marth is not recommended. On the ground, the attack will follow to the edge of the platform. Missing with this attack on the ground on a walk-off stage or in the air without any intervening terrain usually results in a self-destruct but this can be prevented by pressing the attack button, as the dash Marth performs during the move is approximately the same distance as the width of the largest area available in the Stage Builder.
Note that the strike may be triggered early (either in mid-air or on the ground) by pressing any of the attack buttons during the dashing animation. This may be used to save yourself from a possible self-destruct.
It is possible to not self-destruct if a player creates a large stage in Stage Builder that utilizes stairs. Done from end to end, Marth will use his Final Smash but will stop before going off the edge of the top of the stairs or in some cases not finish going up the stairs at all.
Super Armor, such as that granted by Ike's Aether, can be used with precise timing to negate the move's tremendous knockback completely.
Characters can dodge this attack by airdodging or dodging on the ground while in invincibility frames. Marth will try to attack the dodging person (completely stopping) but won't deal any damage/knockback to the dodging person. Critical Hit has earned the reputation of being one of the most predictable and avoidable Final Smashes due to its slow startup time and introduction sequence, which gives all other players in range the chance to completely dodge the move.
Trophy Description
Marth's Final Smash. He thrusts his sword skyward, then rushes to meet his targeted enemy with furious speed. The blow he strikes is so powerful that his foe is instantly launched off the screen. As in Fire Emblem, a window appears that shows the character's hit points dropping rapidly to zero—but this is just for effect. Smash Bros. does not use a hit-point system.
The critical hit comes from many Fire Emblem games, this specific one coming from the animation of many lord's critical attacks. The gauge that appears represents the health system used in Fire Emblem.
- The health gauge shown has 60 HP units, though the games Marth appeared in had a maximum of 52 HP (though enemies with beyond 60 HP exist).
- Marth's Final Smash is able to outrun the cars on Big Blue. However, due to the attack's ending lag, Marth will probably still SD using it.
- The dash speed of this attack is faster than Sonic wearing a bunny hood (who, coincidentally, can also outrun the cars on Big Blue).

In MMOs, I play a lot as girls mainly because if I'm going to see some character's butt for hundreds of hours on end, then might as well be female. Not to mention most MMO male models looks like they took like 10 pounds of steroids or something....
In single player RPGs, I'd choose the gender that gets the childhood friend of the opposite sex (for obvious reasons). If there isn't any, then I go for powergaming reasons, else I have no preference.
Really, nothing complex or deep about decision making here.

But it's funny when some female character comes up and starts sweet talking other people. Most guys do this behind their female avatars and it becomes extremely easy to detect if a character is actually a guy or not. At least, it's become easy for me. I don't know if other girls can tell the difference.
Sometimes when the "females" are sweet talking another dude, I'd walk up to them and say something like "this dude's actually a dude". Then I watch as rage and lolz ensue.

I vary, but I mainly play females 'cause there ain't many such characters in other media. FemShep being an example. I REALLY like badass, strong, independent women in media (and IRL *shifty eyes*), because there ain't many of them, so in RPGs/MMOs I can choose for myself. I usually create them as badass as I can too, no barbie thing for me here.
In EVE I'm using a female avatar simply because I like the design of them better (and no, not the boob+ass aspect). Not much can beat a t-shirt with a black leather vest, dark hair with a ponytail and sunglasses, staring at you.
Though I create males when it's a Berserker/Tank-like character... As I portray myself a bit more then (similarly, healers/rogues I might go female more often). And no, I never go around saying I'm female, or take advantage of it, if anyone asks, I'm male IRL.

This generally applies to fighting games, doesn't it? I admit I play almost always as a female character in those, but in other games like RPGs, I prefer to be male.
For fighting games, the females are more agile and flashy than the males about 90% of the time. They're just more fun to play as, and kick more ass once you master them. Examples?
Noel Vermillion. Chun Li. Ayane. Talim.
The exception to this somewhat general rule probably applies to Mortal Kombat, where making pools of blood is more badass with the cooler powers they gave to a majority of the males. That game was meant to be burly anyways.

Playing as a girl is fun. Makes you treat your character seriously, so you would play your best, trade for the best armour, do the best looks, and make her the cutest thing you have ever seen.

I play as a female character only in some fighting games or in those games where there is no deep character development and where playing as ether gender doesn't bring anything new except few convo changes. Game like Oblivion, for example. If I'm gonna spend 80% of the game on mindless fighting I might as well go for the female. So yeah, it's strictly for eye candy. For every other game I play as a male.

Mahou is male and likes to play female characters in MMOs.
The reason you may ask? Most female sprites looks simply better. Since I don't do endgame activities like raiding, instancing and such I won't have to focus on the environment. So why not play a nice looking character ?
Let's use WoW: The male looks that are acceptable for me are Orc, Tauren, Worgen and Dwarves. The remaining ones either do hardly matter or I prefer the female appearance instead.
As for beat-em up games (of which I'm imho the most unskilled player): It depends on the fighting style or if I'm "comfortable" with it.
But to tell the truth, back when I wa active in forum rping I only played as a male "hero". I could never think myself into a female point of view even if it is just fiction

I've seen many people who shared your view, so I know that in case someone with a female character were to tell you that he's actually male IRL you'd think he's strange or even wrong.
But would you have the same reaction if someone with the obligatory hulky character were to tell you that he's a 9 year old kid?
Would you have the same reaction if someone with the obligatory midget character told you he's 6 feet tall?
Would you have the same reaction if that provocative blonde amazon is actually a not so looking fat girl IRL?
No you wouldn't. It's really only sex that some people believe must match with the user's real identity.
Anyway to add some more insight on the OP's answer. Some people can play a game without identiying with their own character, even when it's a MMORPG. When I've played FFXI most G.I.R.L. I've encountered never lied about their true gender and never even tried to act like female. In those cases the character is seen more like a doll to play with.
You then learn to see the characters on screen as puppets and the people behind them as their puppeteers even if all you see is the puppet.

Out of all the CRPGs I've played where a choice of gender was available, I've played a female main character only twice: as Rebecca Black (Tremere thaumaturge) in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, and Luviena Evermoore (human bard) in Dungeons & Dragons Online.
On both occasions, it was for mainly for aesthetic reasons — the designs of male characters in both games were just too horrible for me to bear. The Western "ideal" of macho masculinity baffles me: I really have no idea why Western designers like to make male RPG heroes look like half-evolved gorillas overdosed on steroids.
Once past the looks though, it was refreshing in both instances to play as a female character — developing their backstories, in particular, turned out more interesting than I had expected. By and large though, like Mahou, I find it difficult to "roleplay" a woman, so I usually stick to male characters.
Gender-role stereotypes inevitably colour my choices as well, making it hard for me to imagine a nice, pretty girl hoisting around a Fat Man mini-nuke launcher in Fallout 3, for example. I'm also especially glad to have played a male character in Dragon Age: Origins — the ending would have been that much more complicated had my avatar been a woman.

For WoW, I am playing a Blood Elf female, a Gnome female, a Dranaei female and a Tauren male. Tauren, being larger in size, looks better as male for me. Gnome males have thick eyebrows/moustaches. So mainly, it's for the looks.

Blackberry Pie
Be the first to review
READY IN: 2hrs 15mins
Recipe by ratherbeswimmin
Maida Heatter; recommends to carefully inspect baked pie crust for any little holes or too-thin spots; patch with almond paste or marzipan because this filling is very juicy and the juices will run out of any places they can get through, which will make the crust stick to the plate.
See Discussion:
Ingredients Nutrition
Pie Crust
- 1 (9 inch) baked extra-deep pie shells
Crumb Topping
- 1⁄2 cup unsifted all-purpose flour
- 1⁄2 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1⁄4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 3 ounces unsalted butter, cold and firm, cut into small pieces
- 2⁄3 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons minute tapioca
- 1 (16 ounce) boxfrozen dry-packed blackberries (individually frozen)
- 1 tart cooking apple
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Directions See How It's Made
- In a bowl, stir the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg to mix well.
- Cut in the butter with a pastry blender until the mixture makes coarse crumbs; there may be some small pieces of butter still visible; that is fine.
- Adjust oven rack one-third up from bottom of oven; preheat to 350°.
- In a bowl, combine the sugar and tapioca; add in the frozen berries, stir gently with a rubber spatula; let stand for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, peel, quarter, and core the apple; cut it into ¼ to ½ inch cubes.
- Stir it into the berry mixture; sprinkle the lemon juice over the fruit and gently stir together.
- Spread the berry mixture in a smooth layer in the crust; slowly and carefully sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the berry mixture.
- To prevent rim of the pie from overbrowning, cover edges of pie crust with foil.
- Bake for 1 hour; then remove foil, increase heat to 450° and continue baking for 8-10 minutes, only until the filling begins to bubble up around the edges (watch it and do not let it bubble over.
- Remove from oven; at this point the filling will be thin and soupy, but when it cools it will become firm and will slice nicely.
- Serve at room temperature, plain or with vanilla ice cream.
- Note: it is important that the crust be high and not have any low spots or the filling will bubble over.

Superfund Site: ARGONAUT MINE
Superfund Site Profile
The Argonaut Mine Site has been proposed for inclusion on the National Priorities List (NPL) by a rulemaking in the Federal Register. Placing the site on the NPL will make it eligible for addional federal funds that will enable a long-term cleanup at the site.
A 60-day public comment period is ongoing until June 7, 2016. To submit a public comment, visit www.regulations.gov and search using the site's docket number: EPA-HQ-OLEM-2016-0151
For information on all of EPA's proposed and final NPL sites click here.
The Argonaut Mine Site (site) is an historic hard rock gold mine that operated from the 1850s to 1942. The Argonaut Mining Company processed ore and disposed of tailings throughout the northwest side of present-day Jackson, CA. As a result of years of mining operations, the site's soil contains high levels of arsenic, lead and mercury. EPA has been working at the site since 2013 to sample, understand, and address the contamination.

|Re: Apache 2.2.3 segfault with Jk connector 1.2.27
|Wed, 17 Dec 2008 22:54:11 GMT
Hi. Responding to my own earlier message, I think I have found what looks like a bug with the combination indicated, and a curious (to me) workaround. Summary : under Linux Suse Enterprise 10.1 using the Apache 2.2.3 (prefork) package of that distribution using mod_jk 1.2.27 In the Apache main configuration section : JkWorkersFile /etc/apache2/conf.d/workers.properties JkShmFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.shm JkLogFile /var/log/apache2/mod_jk.log JkLogLevel debug JkLogStampFormat "[%a %b %d %H:%M:%S %Y] " In a VirtualHost section : <LocationMatch "/my\.servlet$"> SetHandler jakarta-servlet SetEnvIf REQUEST_URI "\.(htm|web|css|gif|jpg|js|html?)$" no-jk </LocationMatch> Any attempt then to access a link ".../my.servlet?..." which should be re-directed to Tomcat by mod_jk (*) results in an Apache "child xxx segfault" in the error log (and no response to the browser). But (workaround), adding the following 2 lines : 1) in the Jk statements of the main Apache server : JkMount /tomcatdummy ajp13 (/tomcatdummy being a totally fake URL fragment) 2) in the VirtualHost configuration (and outside of the <LocationMatch>): JkMountCopy on the segfault magically disappears and everything works as it should. Question thus : is my above first configuration invalid ? Thanks. (*) and seems to works fine on other servers with similar, but not necessarily equal Linux, Apache 2.2.x and mod_jk 1.2.x combinations. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

Sarbanes-Oxley & Other Regulatory Compliance
Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) places similar demands on companies that are very dissimilar. As a result, the onus is on a company's senior management and audit committee to determine the most effective and efficient approach to compliance. Pre-IPO companies have the opportunity to tie strategy to compliance from the outset and to leverage insight for improved governance from their SOX investment. They should also look beyond SOX compliance to ensure that a broad corporate governance framework is in place as they prepare for the next step in their trajectory. On the other hand, for organizations with a mature SOX compliance program, the emphasis should be on optimization of ongoing compliance efforts.
CohnReznick's Governance, Risk and Compliance Practice helps the senior management of hundreds of companies – from emerging technology firms to Fortune 100 giants—adopt a top-down, risk-based approach to SOX and other compliance obligations. We have worked with numerous clients with mature SOX compliance programs to rationalize key controls and ultimately reduce the number of key controls that need to be tested. This approach allows them to see compliance as a pathway to improved performance and smoother governance rather than as a mere cost. We reinforce coordination among the audit committee, internal and external auditors, general counsel, compliance officers, process owners, and key stakeholders, and continually look for ways to leverage regulatory guidance and pronouncements to streamline the Section 404 compliance process.
We also provide services to support management in areas such as technology and security audit and control, policy and procedure development, and financial and SEC reporting.

We'll help you find the right solution for your needs
Does this sound like your topic?
Published with permission from the book, DUI/DWI: The History of Driving Under the Influence, David N. Jolly. Outskirts Press (2009) The DUI Guide: DUI Evidentiary Breath Test Devices Drunkometer Arguably the first practical analytical breath testing machine was the appropriately named "Drunk-o-meter." The device was invented by Professor Rolla N. Harger in 1938. Professor Harger was the Chair of the Department of Biochemistry at the Indiana University School of Medicine and his idea had its origins in 1931. The "Drunk-o-meter" was intended from the beginning to be used by police and was a very elementary device that required an individual to blow into a balloon that was inside the machine. The breath sample was then transferred through an acidified potassium permanganate solution. If the solution changed color there was alcohol in the breath sample. The greater the color change, the more alcohol there was present in the breath. In addition to the fact that the machine was crude, it was also cumbersome. It looked like a portable laboratory and lacked the practicality and relative reliability of later machines. Tilstone, William J., Savage, Kathleen A., and Clark Leigh A.

Convinced they had their man, the studio cast Lugosi in the role he so desparately wanted. Soon enough, other actors were cast in the film, with two of them being Lugosi's fellow actors from the stage play; Edward van Sloan as Van Helsing, and Herbert Bunston as Dr. Seward.
After starring in a few place, he was approached to played Dracula in the stage play of the same name. The play ran for 261 performances until it went on tour.

To compensate for this set back, Laemmle decided that the story would take a simplistic route, and draw inspiration from the Hamilton Deanne stage production of Dracula, which starred Hungarian actor, Bela Lugosi as the Transylvanian Count.
As the 1920's continued, a slow interest in horror began to emerge in Hollywood, most notably, at Universal Studios, when in 1925, their first pure horror film, "The Phantom of the Opera" was made, and terrified audiences everywhere.

The new Honda CB Hornet 160R features sharp and muscular styling details. This can be best seen in the angular head lamp upfront as well as the muscular fuel tank that features forward leaning shrouds and carbon fibre patterned cover on top. The most distinctive design feature though is found at the back, in the form of a brilliant looking 'X' shaped LED tail lamp. Other striking features include the 5-spoke alloy wheels, and the compact silver finished muffler.
The Honda CB Hornet 160R is powered by an air cooled single cylinder 162.7cc engine that develops 15.6bhp and 14.76Nm of torque and is compatible with Bharat Stage IV emission norms. This power is sent to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox. The CB Hornet 160R returns a mileage of 58.9 km/l.
To bring the bike to a stop, Honda has included twin petal disks for the variant with the Combi-Brake system, while the standard bike gets a disc brake at the front.
To improve its stability, the bike features a longer wheelbase of 1,345mm while the rear wheel has been fitted with a 140mm wide tyre.
The standard version of the CB Hornet 160R is priced at Rs. 79,900 ex-showroom (Delhi) while the variant with the Combi-Brake is priced at 84,400 ex-showroom (Delhi).
In a bid to capture its target audience of young professionals and students hooked to social media, Honda has launched an exclusive 'CB Hornet 160R' android mobile application. The app features a comprehensive look at Honda's new bike and allows users to book the bike for just Rs. 5,000. The new CB Hornet 160R is available for booking exclusively through the app, which is a first for Honda. If you want to know more or better yet, book the bike itself, you can download the app here.
Users can login to the app by using their Facebook or Google credentials. Once logged in, the user is taken to the home page of the app where they can either tap on 'Know Your Bike' for an extensive look at the features of the bike or tap on 'Specifications' to look at technical details including the power output and mileage amongst others.
Also included is a 'Gallery' of pictures through which users can look at the CB Hornet 160R's design including that distinctive 'X' shaped LED tail lamp. Users can also take a 360 degree look at the bike and zoom in to check out the finer details of each part of the bike.
For those who want to hear the 162.7cc engine of the CB Hornet 160R, Honda has included a 'Feel The Bike' option in the side slide-out menu. The option allows you to hear the engine as it starts up as well as when the bike is travelling at higher speeds by tapping buttons on the screen. Also included is the sound of the horn.
For users facing a tough choice between the new bike and its rivals, Honda has included a comparison feature as well so that users can compare the CB Hornet 160R to other bikes in the same segment.
Honda also provides on-road prices for the bike as well as a list of dealers for the city the user wants to purchase the new bike in.
The app is a brilliant way of grabbing the attention of the younger crowd as it targets the device that they spend the most amount of time on every day - their smart phones. With the app, Honda has provided everything that a new buyer will want to know and helps them make their decision, all from the convenience of your phone's screen.
Encouraged by the overwhelming response of nearly 35,000 downloads, Honda has advanced its plan to increase availability of bookings via the app by more than two-fold. It will now reach 53 cities across India, up from the initial 21.
The CB Hornet 160R is a bike that stands out from the rest of the crowd and could catapult Honda to greater heights in the Indian Motorcycle market.
Honda's use of an exclusive app for bookings is quite unique in the country and is something that other manufacturers should try out if they want to stay in sync with the new generation of buyers. Additionally, you can also checkout the website.

Most gamers have a love for "what if" scenarios. Whether it's wondering what would happen if Apple bought Nintendo or dreaming of video game sequels that need to be made, most gaming fans enjoy speculating about the future of the industry and games they want developed. Because of this, the recent discovery that three (previously unknown) PS3 games have been cancelled is like Christmas coming early.
This revelation comes courtesy of Steve Johnson, a sound designer for Sony Santa Monica, whose LinkedIn profile lists the three cancelled games along with all his other work. These games were in development for the PS3 sometime within the last 4 years, but exactly how far along they were is not known. The three titles are listed below as they appeared in Steve's profile.
- High Rise (cancelled) – PS3 – Sound Designer / Audio Lead
- Hand of God (cancelled) – PS3 – Sound Designer / Audio Lead
- Psynapse (cancelled) – PS3, PSP – Sound Designer / Audio Lead
Some quick detective work reveals that Psynapse was a brain-training game being developed for both the PS3 and PSP. There aren't any more details regarding Psynapse, but it was likely Sony's answer to Nintendo's popular Brain Age franchise that began on the DS. Check out the short promotional clip for Psynapse.
Nothing is known about the other two titles, but that won't stop us from guessing. Hand of God seems like the perfect name for a follow-up to Clover Studio's (RIP) God Hand — a mostly well-received PS2 game that pops up frequently on fan's wish-lists. As for High Rise, anybody's guess is as good as mine, but I like to imagine it as a hybrid of Crackdown and a billionaire CEO simulator.
It would be great to know more about these games and why they got cancelled, but for now it's purely speculation. However, don't let this bring you down because Steve Johnson's LinkedIn profile also has placeholders for four unannounced PS3 titles. It's probably safe to say that one of these is the yet-to-be-announced God of War 4, but we won't know anything solid until Sony releases the information or Steve updates his LinkedIn profile.
Stay tuned to Game Rant for the latest video game news and further updates to this story.
Let us know what type of games you think High Rise and Hand of God were. Are you excited to find out what games Sony has in the works?

I am sure that this question has been asked, but I have not found one that answers it.
We are a two man IT team & Spiceworks is great for tracking our tickets...the problem is that we both use smart-phones & get email that way. So the question is two-fold:
1) Has anyone figured out a way to have all emails go to both admins? (when one admin replies to a ticket, have it go to the others email also, or when a ticket is closed etc).
2) Has anyone found a way to reply to a ticket via email & have it go to the requestor also? There are many times that I am away from my network & would like to respond to someone's ticket & have it reflect on the ticket & notify the person of the response too. Right now we have to get on the VPN, login to our spiceworks & then send the email that way...it is very annoying.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Need to ask you a question...... are you using exchange to manage your emails and to sync outlook with your smartphones?
Jan 10, 2008 at 3:56 UTC
Yes, we are using Exchange Active-sync on our phones...but regardless, there is also the issue of using OWA when I am at home so that I can respond & have it go to everyone.
Make sense?
Jan 11, 2008 at 1:24 UTC
Is exchange fully working with no issues via active-sync to phones and OWA?
Can you use OWA from any INTERNET assessable PC outside of work?
I ask theses question to make sure that the backround sytems are functioning before sorting out SW and for others on the community to have more infomation with your problem/request.

Yes, the background systems are working...but this isn't a technical problem as much as trying to get it working beyound it's basic scope.
We get ALL email communication through Spiceworks...the issue is that I want email communication to go to BOTH administrators, not just the one dealing with the issue.

Setting tab > User Accounts
is the tick box for the both of you set to "notify me" and are you both "admins"?

Sorry, I guess I'm not being clear...let's try again;
1) We get an Email into the help desk...both admin A & B get an email notifying them of a new ticket. Good so far
2) Admin B answers the email through Spiceworks, the user gets the email with the response (Admin A would like to receive the response email also, as admin a is the manager)
3) User replies to Admin B's response, but only admin B gets that response since he is the ticket owner...admin A would like to see the user's response.
And then, to top it all off, we would like to be able to respond to the ticket emails & have it go to the user & into the help desk system.

1st Post
Having the same issue.
Everything works fine, but would like users to receive an email when I respond to a request through my Blackberry.
The response I make goes into the web interface, but the user does not receieve an email that I responded so they don't know that the ticket has been updated.
is there anyway to fix this?

Af for jimmy4334's question, on my berry if im out of the office and wish to reply to a new ticket they I just reply to the end user directly and cc the helpdeks email, that way my response is also logged,
I usually notufy the user to use reply to all if they are going to reply again to me,
its not perfect but it works,
I think a WAP portal for smart phones jsut for basic helpdesk functions would be fantastic
