And when I say "minor gods," I mean it: we're talking deities like the goddess of dancing girls, the god of summer storms, and the goddess of deep water fish, among others. That's the vibe I'm aiming for with this project too. If anything, I'd prefer that the divinities in Petty Gods be even more minor, esoteric, and obscure than those in Unknown Gods -- the kinds of beings worshiped only by a handful of devoted (and probably crazed) followers and whose power is limited enough that they could conceivably be offed by a party of appropriately bloody-minded PCs. In short, this is a "Monster Manual" for swords-and-sorcery in the manner of Elric.
So, here's the plan. If you're interested in participating in this project, send a description of the minor god(s) to me at jmaliszeATgmail.com with the tag [Petty Gods] in the subject line, using the format presented below. There's no limit to the number of words per submission as such but each deity should have no more than a paragraph or two of descriptive text; the idea here is to be evocative and inspirational rather than exhaustive. If possible, stats should be as compatible with Labyrinth Lord as possible, since that's my go-to game for "generic" old school D&D, but I can make adjustments as necessary, if you make a submission using OSRIC or Swords & Wizardry or whatever.
I'd also love to get some artwork for this project. Unknown Gods includes an illustration for every deity, such as Paul Jaquays's portrait of Tangadorn above. That's probably too much to expect in this case, but a guy can dream, can't he? So, if you're an artist with lots of spare time and a willingness to do some pro bono illustrating, I'd be in your debt if you'd drop me a line too. I won't know how many illustrations I'll need until after I get all the submissions in -- which reminds me: the deadline for submission is December 31, 2010, though I reserve the right to extend it a little beyond that date if I deem it useful to do so. But, if you're at all interested in contributing, I recommend doing your best to get your stuff to me before the end of the year.
This is a volunteer project without any compensation beyond a free PDF of the final product, so I don't begrudge anyone who prefers to devote their creativity to other, more lucrative projects. I'll also make the book available through Lulu.com at cost, since I know there are many folks, such as myself, who prefer physical books to electronic ones. My goal isn't to make any money off this, but simply to put together a cool collaborative project that fills a niche no one else has yet filled. This is the kind of thing at which the old school community excels, so I have little doubt I'll get great submissions.
Here's the format I'd like to see for the submissions:
Name:Each entry should also include a specialized Reaction Table to represent how the minor god reacts to any who encounter him. The standard Reaction Table uses a 2D6 roll, modified by Charisma, but, these being gods, and petty ones at that, their tables could just as easily use 1D20, 2D12, 3D6, or whatever and be modified by other ability scores. Use your imagination. The important thing is that each petty god make an interesting potential enemy or ally of PCs in a swords-and-sorcery style fantasy campaign. Go wild!
Armor Class:
Hit Points (Hit Dice):
Hoard Class:
I'll post a sample petty god on my blog Saturday, in case anyone is unclear about what I'm asking for here. Thanks in advance to everyone who submits. This is going to be fun.

Do you take vitamins? If so, you're in the company of more than half of Americans who report taking a multivitamin or other dietary supplement. These tiny little capsules have garnered a lot of attention in the news lately.
The varying results from these studies remind us of the complexity of nutrition and vitamins. While many supplements can be beneficial for your health, other supplements still need further research to understand their full impact.
There are some guidelines though that can help you determine which supplements you should include in your diet:
First, not all supplements are created equally. Low-grade supplements are often not as soluble, which means the body has difficulty accessing the nutrients. If you're going through the trouble of taking vitamins, you want to make sure they're high-quality so your body can experience the full benefits. Many chiropractors have quality supplements on hand in their office or can recommend good sources.
Second, there seems to be a consensus among doctors that the best way to receive vitamins is through eating healthy food. A lot of people have grown accustomed to eating primarily processed foods which often lack the nutritional benefits of unprocessed foods. And taking a vitamin isn't a simple answer to that lack of nutrition either. Nutrients inside of food interact in complex ways that can't always be replicated in supplements. Taking supplements can be a good way to enhance your healthy diet or fill-in if you have vitamin deficiency, but they aren't meant to replace a healthy diet. Ask your doctor for more information about healthy nutrition and vitamin deficiency.
Finally, every person will have a unique set of vitamin needs. What supplements you should take depends on several factors like your diet, age, and sex, whether your have a deficiency. Your chiropractor has received nutritional training and can counsel you on which supplements are right for you.
Your chiropractor does more than just treat pain; they're there to help you lead a happier, healthier life.

When children are gunned down in their classrooms, as happened last month in Newtown, Conn., it's time to say "enough," former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz., tells ABC News.
So she and her husband Mark Kelly, as they write this morning in USA Today, are launching a campaign "to balance the influence of the gun lobby" and push for "responsible changes in our laws to require responsible gun ownership and reduce gun violence."
Their announcement comes two years to the day after Giffords was shot in the head by a gunman who attacked an event she was hosting in Tucson, Ariz. he killed six people and wounded 13, including the congresswoman.
The campaign Giffords and Kelly unveiled today is called Americans for Responsible Solutions. At its website, Giffords writes that:
"Two years ago, a mentally ill young man shot me in the head, killed six of my constituents, and wounded 12 others. Since that terrible day, America has seen 11 more mass shootings — but no response from Congress to prevent gun violence. After the massacre of 20 children and six of their teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary though, it's clear: This time must be different."Americans for Responsible Solutions will encourage elected officials to stand up for solutions to prevent gun violence and protect responsible gun ownership by communicating directly with the constituents that elect them."
In USA Today, she and Kelly write that those who oppose any new gun laws should:
"Forget the boogeyman of big, bad government coming to dispossess you of your firearms. As a Western woman and a Persian Gulf War combat veteran [Kelly] who have exercised our Second Amendment rights, we don't want to take away your guns any more than we want to give up the two guns we have locked in a safe at home. What we do want is what the majority of NRA members and other Americans want: responsible changes in our laws to require responsible gun ownership and reduce gun violence."
Much more from the ABC interview with Giffords and Kelly is due on Tuesday evening's World News with Diane Sawyer.

KAUFMAN, Texas – Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland took no chances after one of his assistant prosecutors was gunned down two months ago. McLelland said he carried a gun everywhere he went and was extra careful when answering the door at his home.
"I'm ahead of everybody else because, basically, I'm a soldier," the 23-year Army veteran said in an interview less than two weeks ago.
On Saturday, he and his wife were found shot to death in their rural home just outside the town of Forney, about 20 miles from Dallas.
While investigators gave no motive for the killings, Forney Mayor Darren Rozell said: "It appears this was not a random act."
"Everybody's a little on edge and a little shocked," he said.
The slayings came less than two weeks after Colorado's prison chief was shot to death at his front door, apparently by an ex-convict, and a couple of months after Kaufman County Assistant District Attorney Mark Hasse was killed in a parking lot a block from his courthouse office. No arrests have been made in Hasse's slaying Jan. 31.
McLelland, 63, is the 13th prosecutor killed in the U.S. since the National Association of District Attorneys began keeping count in the 1960s.
Sheriff David Byrnes would not give details Sunday of how the killings unfolded and said there was nothing to indicate for certain whether the DA's slaying was connected to Hasse's.
El Paso County, Colo., sheriff's spokesman Sgt. Joe Roybal said investigators had found no evidence so far connecting the Texas killings to the Colorado case, but added: "We're examining all possibilities."
Colorado's corrections director, Tom Clements, was killed March 19 when he answered the doorbell at his home outside Colorado Springs. Evan Spencer Ebel, a white supremacist and former Colorado inmate suspected of shooting Clements, died in a shootout with Texas deputies two days later about 100 miles from Kaufman.
McLelland himself, in an Associated Press interview shortly after the Colorado slaying, raised the possibility that Hasse was gunned down by a white supremacist gang.
The weekend slayings raised concerns for prosecutors across Texas, and some were taking extra security precautions. Byrnes said security would be increased at the courthouse in Kaufman but declined to say if or how other prosecutors in McLelland's office would be protected.
Harris County District Attorney Mike Anderson said he accepted the sheriff's offer of 24-hour security for him and his family after learning about the slayings, mostly over concerns for his family's safety. Anderson said also would take precautions at his Houston office, the largest one in Texas, which has more than 270 prosecutors.
"I think district attorneys across Texas are still in a state of shock," Anderson said Sunday.
McLelland, elected DA in 2010, said his office had prosecuted several cases against racist gangs, who have a strong presence around Kaufman County, a mostly rural area dotted with subdivisions, with a population of about 104,000.
"We put some real dents in the Aryan Brotherhood around here in the past year," he said.
In recent years, the DA's office also prosecuted a case in which a justice of the peace was found guilty of theft and burglary and another case in which a man was convicted of killing his former girlfriend and her 10-year-old daughter.
McLelland said he carried a gun everywhere, even to walk his dog around town, a bedroom community for the Dallas area. He figured assassins were more likely to try to attack him outside. He said he had warned all his employees to be constantly on the alert.
"The people in my line of work are going to have to get better at it," he said of dealing with the danger, "because they're going to need it more in the future."
The number of attacks on prosecutors, judges and senior law enforcement officers in the U.S. has spiked in the past three years, according to Glenn McGovern, an investigator with the Santa Clara County, Calif., district attorney's office who tracks such cases.
For about a month after Hasse's slaying, sheriff's deputies were parked in the district attorney's driveway, said Sam Rosander, a McLelland neighbor.
The FBI and the Texas Rangers joined the investigation into the McLellands' deaths.
McLelland and his wife, Cynthia, 65, were the parents of two daughters and three sons. One son is a police officer in Dallas. The couple had moved into the home a few years ago, Rozell said.
"Real friendly, became part of our community quickly," Rozell said. "They were a really pleasant, happy couple."

The Amarok Squad is proud to announce the second beta release of Amarok 2.0. This release includes a lot of bug fixes and improvements, like the switch from SQlite to MySQL-embedded. The LibriVox service is back, as is lyrics support. Please read the release announcement for a detailed list of changes since the release of Beta 1 and more.
The most significant change in this release is the switch from SQLite to MySQL-embedded as the database backend. MySQL-embedded allows us to use the performance increase of the popular MySQL database, while avoiding non-trivial configuration that comes with a standalone server. Most noticeably, you will see much improved performance of collection scanning and searching, especially with very large music collections.
More generally we have fixed a huge amount of bugs, bringing Amarok 2 one step closer to the stability you would expect for your daily music needs. While not quite stable quality, we encourage our users to test this release and continue submitting bug reports. Already this beta version is good enough for daily use in many cases.
We hope you enjoy this release which we have worked so hard to produce. Stay tuned for upcoming releases, and please do not forget to donate for Roktober!
I suspect there is quite a difference between showing a bunch of files & parsing all meta data while making it searchable. You wouldn't want to wait 10 sec for a search in 1000 mp3's to finish, right?
Yah but with a relational engine you would still have to parse all the metadata before inserting it right?
Besides, no, I don't want to wait 10 seconds and I never said I would but you keep ignoring the question I'm trying to ask, which is how many files it takes for MySQL to make a difference as opposed with a good algorithm.
I mean MySQL doesn't do magic, it just implements good searching and retrieval algorithm in a fast yet generic way, and I am confused why we can't implement good searching and retrieval algorithms in the much simpler case where we don't have to have the genericity of an RDBMS. Plus it'd be even faster because of no SQL overhead.
Sorry if I'm being bothersome with this, as a whole I think KDE is great but this issue in particular smells a lot like people trying to rationalize bad design after the fact and that's be a pity for such a project as KDE. I mean back in the day it was GNOME that made the poor choices (such as CORBA for interprocess communication) rather than implement the correct solution themselves (DCOP, in the case of this comparison), right?
So if MySQL implements good searching and retrieval algorithms in a fest way, and provides them as a library to embed in your application, why not use it, but implement the same thing again? A lot of work went into mysql to make it fast and powerful, plus you don't need to maintain it.
Oh because MySQL implements a lot of additional stuff such as SQL parser and network layer and the whole database engine independence system and query planner (and besides the database engine independence is the reason why the MySQL query planner is not as good as other databases because it has to remain generic across them all, and that's one more reason why too much genericity leads to more overhead). Kinda like using CORBA for communication between local processes indeed, it works and that's not the problem, the problem is the overhead. You are giving me the not reinventing the wheel argument which does make sense, except when you're trying to fit truck wheels on your sports car because that's all you have at hand.
They are using MySQL embedded, which removes much of the multi-user/network stuff (which is why it's called embedded).
This kind of metadata management is the RIGHT application for SQL. Manually recoding every possible kind of query that Amarok needs, when MySQL already does this, would be utterly silly. Especially since it _does_ have things like the query planner built in, so that it can take into account dynamic things like indexes, table sizes, join path optimization etc, which _could_ be reimplemented manually but with little noticeable performance benefit, and huge opportunity cost (I'd rather have the Amarok developers spend their limited time on Amarok than duplicating RDBMS features - the MySQL devs do that full time already). Not to mention that db versioning between releases of Amarok would be much easier with an SQL backend than some ad-hoc db implementation.
The query planner overhead you are talking about is irrelevant btw - for simple queries (one or two tables) it will be negligible, and if it is a complex query, it will often do a better job than someone who isn't a DBA coding it by hand.
Hi taj
Thank you for actually addressing my questions it is good of you to do so.
I can see how MySQL embedded would be way better than the server version, yes, so that's less of a concern, thank you for this detail.
About the query planner and complex queries though, this is a music player, what kind of complex queries do you think would be running? It may be there is something I'm missing there mind you so this is a honest question.
Why is it that non-programmers are determined to argue about internal design against the actual developers of the system?
By now if you haven't realized that I am indeed a programmer I don't know what I can say that will convince you!
I am pleased that you said "why we can't implement..." because I am interested in reading about your proposed alternative DB design for Amarok. Amarok requires dozens of different storage, searching, sorting and filtering queries across many different data types, so I'd be interested in seeing how you solve this problem while still allowing plugins and future versions of Amarok to perform additional queries without causing re-programming of the db algorithms, and taking into account data size and distribution like the MySQL query engine does.
And I am genuinely interested btw, because this is something that has been kicking around in my head since JuK implemented its own custom database for all of this. I am (passively) for more SQL use within KDE, so a good analysis of this case would be very useful fodder for debate.
Some possible avenues for exploration comparing JuK's db to Amarok's - is there a large delta in performance across all query types? Particular query types? At what point is this affected by database size? How about ad-hoc queries - are both able to handle future query requirements? How about versioning and updates? On-disk size? Reliability and fault-tolerance (ACID)?
Hi again taj,
Thank you for bringing up actual implementation requirements and not just generalities such as speed, because it helps make the issue clearer.
The way I was seeing the problem domain it was essentially about sorting and filtering a medium-size set of data because I don't think many users have more than say a few thousands songs at most? Is this correct? I'm going to work based on that from here down so please keep this in mind, thanks.
Because if so a simple tabular binary representation of data would work fine, that's actually how RDBMS engines work under the hood. By this I mean binary files with fixed-sized records (so you can scan sequentially with a fixed increment which is very fast).
Actually a RDBMS adds a lot of layers around such as indexes, which are depending on the implementation b-trees or hashes pointing to offsets in the tabular data, and of course JOINs and the query planner for non trivial queries, and in some cases collation (well for MySQL anyway because the support for collations in Postgres is kinda weak).
What I was thinking is that in a number of cases the query planner ends up deciding to not use indexes at all and scans the tabular data instead, it depends on how expensive index lookup is as opposed to scanning sequentially (which itself depends on the cost of loading a page of tabular data). I refer you to the Postgres documentation for EXPLAIN ANALYZE which does a good job of speaking about this.
So in the case of a list of song files (if there are at most a few thousands entries for instance) it's really not obvious that a good query planner would decide to use the index, or that the index if used would make a huge difference in speed. Plus in the case of text search (by fragments of title for instance) there will be no index used of course.
So a simple tabular representation might work very well for this problem domain.
There is the problem of collations (which we will probably want to use for searching and sorting, for instance Gödel should appear alongside Goedel), which I think is what the QString::localeAwareCompare method exists to solve, although there might be too much overhead for this. In such a case I've at times used an algorithm where I store a normalized version of strings (meaning all lowercase, spaces simplified and accents removed) to search and order based on that, which works well but has the drawback to double the storage space required for a given string.
Then there's JOIN and I didn't think there would be a need for those in a playlist because the data model of artist / album / song can be designed as not following the usually correct normal form (because a song encompasses both album and artists, i.e. there are never more albums than songs for instance), but of course I may be wrong because I don't know what kind of queries the playlist would need to do anyway. Besides there is the issue of artists collaborating on an album or on a song which may require the use of some normalization at least if that's an issue for you.
Of course JOINs can be implemented all the same if needed, it is logically speaking only a matter of scans across different tables using the JOIN ON clause as the search key. This is actually where a query planner makes a difference by ordering the JOINs if there are several of them, you want to start scanning the smallest table first but that particular optimization is not hard to implement especially as in our case we'll nearly always have more songs than artists and albums and more albums than songs so we can work based on that assumption.
There is also the issue of data and index buffers caching, which for small datasets (and a few thousands entries is still a small dataset I think) can probably be handled better by the OS-level cache while a RDBMS is generally designed to work best when it has the whole machine to itself and so manages the buffers itself for more efficiency, although of course that may not be true of MySQL embedded.
So for the problem domain as described thus far, a tabular data implementation with fixed-size records would probably work very well but, but but but of course I'm working based my assumptions of how a playlist works and that may not fit at all the data model Amarok really uses, in particular it seems you mean that plugins should be able to create data columns, right?
For instance it would be harder to implement flexible data model description, so columns could be added and removed and changed dynamically, and if that's a very very important part of the way you see playlists then of course a simple tabular model would no longer fit the problem domain as such, we should at least consider an array of such tabular models and that's already more complicated.
So it would help if you could quote typical complex queries such as you would like to use, and I do mean typical and not too far fetched because the "what if we ever need to do..." kind of scenarios is recipe for overengineering I think, because typical use cases is what you need first and foremost to design such a system, otherwise it's all assumptions and assumptions are the mother of all fuckups. (Which is a way to say that the whole above text might be full of fuckups because I still don't know exactly what you truly need to do with your playlist data.)
Well! I'm sorry this reply was so long but I didn't have time to make it shorter. :)
Thank you for reading taj. I hope at least it's clear I'm really trying not to talk out of my ass and to give this thorough thought.
Hi taj
You didn't respond so I assume you aren't interested anymore which I can understand because the amarok developers said they'd still use MySQL as a datadump for various things even with other collection engines, so that makes the whole idea of a better collection engine to avoid the overhead of MySQL kinda moot.
It's a pity because I did some preliminary testing and a very very simple implementation of mmap'ed tabular records shows excellent performance I mean we're talking almost one million records per second for a case insensitive search (think like 'ILIKE') and that's without any indexing whatsoever of course.
Sorry this is wrong, that number is for case-sensitive search (the equivalent of 'LIKE'), case-insensitive search is more like 500,000 records per second.
Mind you that's without the collating algorithm I told you about, with that algorithm it's back to 700,000 to 800,000 records/s at the cost of doubling the record size.
Also note this is a very simple proof-of-concept implementation so of course it means little about how the final implementation would perform, the sole idea is to show that a very simple and quick to implement algorithm using tabular records can be very fast.
Perhaps I'll keep working on this for its own sake it's kinda fun, I like algorithmic problems.
Didn't someone on the planet comment the other day that several KDE apps are using very different approaches for storage, and wonder if perhaps they should come together and discuss what is the best way for them to store data, and perhaps unify?
A database backend for data is likely the way to remain, but what about Strigi indexing that data, and Nepomuk keeping ratings info and tags?
There is a nepomuk collection in the works for amarok that when finished will likely be an alternative to using mysql.
The current problem with it? It's way too slow for anyone to use.
Here comes the famous idiot keyword: bloat.
Ahhhh, they never know what they are talking about, but they use it so expansively.
Hi there care to elaborate on why you think I may not know what I am talking about?
You never even made a claim to have any facts to backup your assertion...
Hi Ian
Well actually facts are what I'm asking about, because all I've seen thus far is claims that the current method is too slow but for all I know it takes many more song files for it to become slow than most users have and if so we'd be making the RDBMS a mandatory dependency for the benefit of but a few, that's why my initial query was about making it non-mandatory.
As for facts to back my concern a default MySQL installation consumes several tens of megs of memory which is not that much for a RDBMS but all the same pretty crazy in the face of the problem domain as it appears to be to me, that being a playlist.
Granted as someone else pointed out politely the embedded version would have less overhead, I overlooked that.
Mind you I understand why developpers would act defensive these days after the mean spirited comments there have been about Plasma and KDE 4 as a whole so I am not blaming you or anyone, but it worries me a little that the actual questions I've been asking are only now being answered after this thread has already grown more than it probably should have.
Thank you for reading.
I am really missing the old quick search of Amarok 1.4. This is the feature I used most of the time and it was easily accessible using just the keyboard. But now search results are burried within the tree and I need to perform 2 mouse clicks to expand artist and album on every single search result to see the results. This makes the result totally inaccessible using the keyboard.
Would be great, if search results would be expanded automatically and if they would become accessible by the keyboard like in the old days.
Here is my wish: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172379
Yes, I agree. IMHO the 1.4 search bar was very cool. Please add that bar to the amarok2
I really like the new internet services. Since I installed beta2, I've listened to a number of short stories through the librivox-service, and harassed my friends using their last.fm personal radios :)
My only gripe so far is concerning the phonon-xine engine, I can't seem to make it respect ~/.xine/config, and it insists on resampling everything to 48Khz. Not the biggest issue in the world, and not really all that connected to Amarok.
Thanks for your work, I'm looking forward to 2.0 final!
My impression of mysql is that it is bigger and needs more resources than sqlite (it's also more performing, given enough memory, and suports more features).
Does anyone know what the memory and disk footprint of mysql is vs sqlite? I just hope I can still fit it into my ram-challenged laptop :)
For what is worth, MySQL on my machine is using 24 megs of RAM after a couple of days uptime working with amarok.
My music collection contains 11000+ files.
Okay that doesn't seem to unreasonable, thank you for being the first to actually provides figures because that's what I was asking.
He must be using Amarok 1.4 though. Amarok 2 doesn't use a separate process.
Yeah, thanks for an honest answer. That seems rather reasonable.
Does it support grouping together compilation albums now?
My collection is very centered around albums/releases and this is a showstopper for me.
Yep, works. Compilations can be marked as such, and will then be listed under "Various Artists."
Sometimes, Amarok 2 is still acting quite oddly with some methods of distinguishing compilations. There are plans for a much more complete method of handling the issue in the 2.1 timeframe.
I can't seem to find how to change the amount of info the playlist shows. The most important one being the actual rating of the song. I find useless the ability to rate a song if you can't have a look at the songs ratings unless you are playing the song. I mean that you can't see the ratings on the collection nor even on the playlist.
Am I missing something?
Thanks Mark, I already read it though ( a couple of minutes after posting my question :S)
You can import stats from 1.4 what about collection from MySQL database?
From release notes:
"Furthermore, this will allow us to expose using a standalone MySQL server in the future, if so desired, though this is not possible yet."
I guess I will need to wait with migration to Amarok 2 ... :)
Otherwise, big thank you for the excellent work.
I'm not quite sure what exactly you mean, but with Amarok 2.0 it will be possible to import your old MySQL database from 1.4. We are working on a script that does this.
Thanks. That is exactly what I meant and it is really good news :). So it looks like the only drawback will be that you need to migrate from standalone SQL to embedded MySQL database.
I know that is stupid to ask for the roadmap, so my question is not when but:
Is anyone currently working on MySql (standalone) database as a collection backend?
Many thanks.
The simple reason for this is that there is no need to. One of the reasons we choose MySql-embedded is that pointing it at a standalone external service is just a config option away and is completely transparent to the rest of the application. So all we really need is a config dialog for handling this ( and potentially a way to transfer an existing db back and forth between the embedded and external server )
Likely this will come in one of the very first post 2.0. releases.
- Nikolaj
Cheers Nikolaj
Thanks for another fine release, and for all the work you all put into Amarok.
This might seem a stupid question but when I have my Ipod show up in the collection tab, how do I delete a song from it? I see a 'copy to' and 'move to', but no 'delete from'.
I am using a resolution of 1400x1050 and amarok doesnt really fit into it...
In my opinion the main window is too crowded horizontally. I know that it is still in heavy development, so what about this idea: Move the plasma "workspace" in the mainwindow into its own tab on the left, and make it cover the whole window in this new tab?
Combining this with effects (maybe under the plasmoid layer) would be awesome imho :)
I can do some mockups if someone likes this idea :)
The logic of moving it to the center was to emphasize its importance in the Amarok world view. Appropriate contextual information should always be availible. Unfortunatly the world of plasma makes creating displays for this appropriate contextual information a whole lot less enjoyable than it could be, and therefore a lot of this appropriate contextual information does not exist at this point.
I do not understand your claim that Amarok doesn't fit into 1400 pixels wide.... I have no problem with it here.
I second this idea.
I also wish for there to be a resolution that lends itself to CarPC's.
Low resolution 7" screens.
We are actively working towards an alternative player, tentatively named the Amarok Mobile Companion, which is being based on the groundwork in Amarok 2's collection and service frameworks, incorporating a new UI designed specifically for touch-screen small form factor devices... So... watch this space :)
I seem to recall reading somewhere that Amarok 2 no longer will allow me to use Ruby to do scripting; is this true?
If so, is it possible to call external programs using the new Amarok scripting? Here's to hoping I can hack my Ruby into Amarok some way or another.
Uhm, sure. I dont see any reason why it should not be possible to write a thin QtScript <-> Ruby wrapper.
BUT, this would very much be against the entire point of why we switched to QtScript only. The reason is to avoid users running into dependency hell when installing or running scripts, a problem that is magnified several times when we go truly cross platform. Now, you can argue that ruby itself is not that bad, but many scripts today use other external dependencies ( Ruby-Qt bindings, xml parsing modules, ... ) that the user also has to install. With QtScript, as you have access to the entire Qt framework, there is really no need to install additional dependencies, and we can ensure that all scripts will work "out of the box" for all users as the dependencies are met simply by having Amarok installed.
So while you might be able to get around this, it will severely limit the audience of your scripts as we will only allow pure QtScript scripts to be distributed via the "get hot new stuff" service.
Besides, although javascript has a very bad reputation, most of this ( deservedly ) comes from it being used as a web scripting language. As a popper scripting language, backed by the entire Qt and Amarok API, its really not that bad!
Thanks for the reply!
My scripts are only for me, so portability is not an issue at all. I have no problem with Javascript per se, I just don't want to learn yet another language. I certainly understand your reasoning, and who knows, I might wind up learning it anyway!
i am still using amarok 1.4 and i have running all the time because i use it to manage by podcasts.
in amarok 1.4, trying to open an audio file from a konqueror will automatically add it to a playlist without start playing it, the only way(as far as i know) to have amarok play a file from double clicking it in konqueror is to first make sure the playlist is empty and this is not very practical and there is no way to change this ..
how do you guys plan to handle this in amarok 2? ..can i just double click a file in konqueror and have amarok start playing it? ..just adding it to the playlist and have me go to amarok to click it again(the way i have to do in amarok 1.4) to start playing it is not very convenient.
currently, i have xmms player set as a default player in order to be able to just double click an audio file and simply have it start playing ..i think amarok should be able to do this
Well, instant-play single-shot type stuff is what Dragon Player (or Codeine in KDE 3) was designed to do, so... you could always give that one a shot :)
But to answer your more immediate question, it's a case of default actions - try right-clicking on a sound file, there should be actions to append to playlist, load and play, and append and play (depending on the version of amarok you're running there may be less options, but at least the first and last option should be there). So... you can set up the default action to be what you want it to do on double-click (and since you're already set it to double-click in stead of single-click, which is the default in KDE, you should be able to change that default action as well with not too much trouble :) ).

Don't Be Your Own Worst Enemy
One of the most well-known investors of the 20th Century, Benjamin Graham, said that "the investor's chief problem—and even his worst enemy—is likely to be himself."
What Graham understood—and modern research is catching up to—is the idea that we all have emotions and biases that affect our decision-making. The innate wiring built to survive pre-modern times can be counterproductive in our modern world, especially when it comes to investing.
Let's take a quick look at a few of the human emotions and biases that can adversely impact sound investment decision-making.
Fear and Greed — These are the two most powerful emotions that move investors and investment markets. Each emotion clouds our capability for rational and dispassionate decision-making. They are the emotions that lead us to believe that prices may continue to rise (think the Tulip price bubble of 1636) or that everything has gone so wrong that prices may not recover (think Credit Crisis of 2008-2009).
Some investors have found a way to conquer these emotions, be brave when everyone else is fearful, and resist the temptations of a too-exuberant market.
Overconfidence — Peter Bernstein, a noted economic historian, argued that the riskiest moment may be when we feel that we are right. It is at that precise moment that we tend to disregard all information that may conflict with our beliefs, setting ourselves up for investment surprise.
Selective Memory — Human nature is such that we tend to recast history in a manner that emphasizes our successes and downplays our failures. As a result, we may not benefit from the valuable lessons failure can teach. Indeed, failure may be your most valuable asset.
Prediction Fallacy — Humans have an innate desire to recognize patterns and apply these patterns to predicting the future. We erroneously believe that because "A" occurred and "B" happened that if "A" happens again, we can profit by anticipating that "B" will repeat. Market history is littered with examples of "rules of thumb" that have worked until they no longer worked.
Financial markets are complex and unpredictable. Our endeavors to tap their opportunities to pursue our financial goals are best realized when we don't burden the enterprise by blindness to the inherent behavioral obstacles we all share.

"WOW – This is the Best Theme I have ever seen."
WOW – I dont really know what else to say. This is the Best Theme I have ever seen. I am a full time web dev, and this theme blows me away. I wanted to thank you for all your hard work. I am really looking forward to building my new site! I think you thought of everything and then some. Thank you so much for this theme, WOW- AMAZING!" – MarketingMonsters
I bought this theme and i would like to recommend it to every one interested in building a website without knowledge of php or html. It is very convenient and the customer service is very reactive. I will say it in French "Bravo" for this work!
Amazing theme and top class support, as I'm a beginner, Luke helped me above and beyond and was more than patient, his responses were quick and he has a genuine care for you to enjoy and move forward with your theme!.. highly recommended theme and author!
Let me say something. You have an amazing theme and amazing/awesome support. They helped me on weekend. This is what I call an "extra mile" in customer relationship. So I gave 5 stars for the theme and if I could, I'd give 10 stars for support.
Thank you for your very professional and prompt response. I went to look for answers to my own questions and quickly realized that the information I was requesting was very easy to find. As were the videos and the instructions. In fact everything has been perfect so far. This is by far the most well supported theme I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Lots of wonderful options. I wished I had found you before I spent money on a competitors theme. Thanks again for the great support and for a great product.
If I could give 100 stars for support and attention to detail I definitely would. I've purchased a good number of WordPress themes from various developers that look good on Themeforest but after you buy them you find numerous problems, bugs, crazy admin and very very poor support. I purchased the Avada theme and there were a couple of problems too, but the guys from ThemeFusion were remarkable – I really mean this. The speed of support and attention to detail is quite phenomenal. You will be extremely pleased.

CLUSTER — cluster a table according to an index
CLUSTER [VERBOSE]table_name
[ USINGindex_name
instructs PostgreSQL to cluster the table specified by table_name
based on the index specified by index_name
. The index must already have been defined on table_name
When a table is clustered, it is physically reordered based on the index information. Clustering is a one-time operation: when the table is subsequently updated, the changes are not clustered. That is, no attempt is made to store new or updated rows according to their index order. (If one wishes, one can periodically recluster by issuing the command again. Also, setting the table's fillfactor
storage parameter to less than 100% can aid in preserving cluster ordering during updates, since updated rows are kept on the same page if enough space is available there.)
When a table is clustered, PostgreSQL remembers which index it was clustered by. The form CLUSTER
reclusters the table using the same index as before. You can also use the table_name
or SET WITHOUT CLUSTER
forms of ALTER TABLE to set the index to be used for future cluster operations, or to clear any previous setting.
without any parameter reclusters all the previously-clustered tables in the current database that the calling user owns, or all such tables if called by a superuser. This form of CLUSTER
cannot be executed inside a transaction block.
When a table is being clustered, an ACCESS EXCLUSIVE
lock is acquired on it. This prevents any other database operations (both reads and writes) from operating on the table until the CLUSTER
is finished.
The name (possibly schema-qualified) of a table.
The name of an index.
Prints a progress report as each table is clustered.
In cases where you are accessing single rows randomly within a table, the actual order of the data in the table is unimportant. However, if you tend to access some data more than others, and there is an index that groups them together, you will benefit from using CLUSTER
. If you are requesting a range of indexed values from a table, or a single indexed value that has multiple rows that match, CLUSTER
will help because once the index identifies the table page for the first row that matches, all other rows that match are probably already on the same table page, and so you save disk accesses and speed up the query.
can re-sort the table using either an index scan on the specified index, or (if the index is a b-tree) a sequential scan followed by sorting. It will attempt to choose the method that will be faster, based on planner cost parameters and available statistical information.
When an index scan is used, a temporary copy of the table is created that contains the table data in the index order. Temporary copies of each index on the table are created as well. Therefore, you need free space on disk at least equal to the sum of the table size and the index sizes.
When a sequential scan and sort is used, a temporary sort file is also created, so that the peak temporary space requirement is as much as double the table size, plus the index sizes. This method is often faster than the index scan method, but if the disk space requirement is intolerable, you can disable this choice by temporarily setting enable_sort to off
It is advisable to set maintenance_work_mem to a reasonably large value (but not more than the amount of RAM you can dedicate to the CLUSTER
operation) before clustering.
Because the planner records statistics about the ordering of tables, it is advisable to run ANALYZE on the newly clustered table. Otherwise, the planner might make poor choices of query plans.
Because CLUSTER
remembers which indexes are clustered, one can cluster the tables one wants clustered manually the first time, then set up a periodic maintenance script that executes CLUSTER
without any parameters, so that the desired tables are periodically reclustered.
Cluster the table employees
on the basis of its index employees_ind
CLUSTER employees USING employees_ind;
Cluster the employees
table using the same index that was used before:
CLUSTER employees;
Cluster all tables in the database that have previously been clustered:
There is no CLUSTER
statement in the SQL standard.
The syntax
is also supported for compatibility with pre-8.3 PostgreSQL versions.

text: The Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution explicitly prohibits "excessive bail." The term "excessive bail" is not defined in the Constitution and the Supreme Court has weighed in on what it means, holding that bail cannot be set so high as to be a ploy to force a defendant to remain in jail. But, Court has also ruled that the Eighth Amendment's bar on excessive bail does not create a right to any bail—a court may refuse to release a defendant at all under certain circumstances. In conjunction with his vast know-how, our company leverages the robust legal expertise of working in different courts.

There are advantages to choosing a closing date either close to the first or close to the last of the month. Whether you are the buyer or the seller, you have a vested interest in the closing date working for you. The date is negotiable until the contract offered by the buyer is accepted by the seller. From that point on, all efforts must be made to ensure the date is met. If you don't close on time, you can complicate your move and risk losing the house.
As a buyer, you need to give yourself plenty of time to work out details with your lender. Most people set a closing date 30 to 45 days after the offer is accepted. A home purchase has many moving pieces and there's always a risk that more time will be required than you think. For example, the lender may ask for additional documentation as part of the loan process. Unless you are paying cash, you don't want a quick closing date.
Frequently, it is wise to choose a closing date near the end of the month. Interest is prorated from the date you close to the last day of the month, so you will pay less if you close near the 30th. For example, if you close on July 10, you will have to pay 21 days of interest. If you close on July 25, you only pay six days of interest result in a savings of several hundred dollars due at time of closing.
However, there are certain advantages to closing early in the month. While you will indeed pay more in pre-paid interest, you won't have a house payment for nearly two months. This may be your best choice when considering cash flow during your move. Loan interest is paid in arrears and your pre-paid interest will cover to the end of the month. If you close in early July, for example, you won't have a house payment due for August until the first of September. Also, because many people choose the end of the month for their closing, it is the busiest time for mortgage brokers. If the lender has a backlog, the closing could be delayed.
You will establish an occupancy date as well as a closing date. At closing, you will assume ownership of your new home. However, the actual move-in date may occur later depending on your circumstances. Sometimes the sellers have already vacated the property or will move out immediately upon closing. Others may request an extended occupancy due to the move-in date of their next home and will then pay rent to you as the new home owners until they are gone. Also, you may choose to do some renovation work on your new home before moving in and will plan on a later occupancy date. Of course, your plans will need to coordinate with the move-out date of the property where you currently live.
One last tip: avoid the holiday rush. If you are planning to make your move over a holiday, such as the four-day Thanksgiving weekend, don't schedule your closing date for the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Back it up to the Monday prior so that any glitches that might arise won't derail your long-weekend moving plans.
Throughout the closing process, your real estate agent will guide you in planning dates and avoiding pitfalls. Lean on their expertise and you'll be living in your new dream home before you know it!

Which metal type?
Good question! Picking your ring metal is important, influencing looks, price, maintenance and care. Couples may choose to buy matching or contrasting rings.
Below are some quick pointers. For more information visit our Men's Wedding Ring Guide.
Platinum: The rarest of all available precious metals but also the strongest, whitest, and most durable.
White Gold: An alloy of yellow gold, mixed with white metal to deliver a shine comparable to platinum.
Yellow Gold: The most traditional of all wedding band metals. A timeless metal owing to its precious nature and rarity.
Palladium: Extremely popular amongst budding grooms, a member of the platinum family but 1/3 of the price.
Rose Gold: One of the trendiest metals of modern days, formulated using gold mixed with copper alloys and silver to deliver that lovely pink-red hue.
Silver: The most common of all precious metals, easier to source and a lot cheaper to buy.
Don't know your ring size?
You can order a FREE Ring Sizer to get you started. It should be with you in a few days if you're in the UK and will give you a good idea of your finger size.
If you're still not sure you can use our FREE Ring Samples to help determine your exact size in the style you would like to order.
The width and profile of a ring can affect how it fits, for example a wide band may need to be slightly bigger in size, but if you're not sure please do get in touch with us.
You may also find our size conversion chart useful if you need to convert an international size to a UK letter size.
Ring Weight
Light Weight: In a typical light weight ring the depth, or wall, is the thinnest option as there is less metal used. A light weight ring can have two advantages. In platinum for example, a heavy metal, the ring will be lighter and so more affordable. Secondly, being thinner and lighter on the finger, the wearer will find the ring less noticable and more comfortable when fingers are touching. Lighter profiles are a good solution where a much wider larger mens size is needed, as a lower cost that a medium weight equivalent style.
Medium Weight: A medium weight profile is our most popular weight ring. The thickness, or wall depth, offers a nice balance of weight without being too light or too heavy and is suitable for both men and women. Medium weights are available in all profiles of our wedding rings. It offers a comfortable, easy to wear fit on the finger and generally sits well next to an engagement ring too.
Heavy Weight: Usually popular for a man's wedding ring, particularly in Palladium 950, our heavy weight profiles are particularly suitable for large sizes in wider bands. A heavy weight ring has more metal meaning more gram weight. It offers a chunky feel with a deeper wall depth sitting higher on the finger. If you like substantial chunky jewellery then this weight is for you.
Ring Width
Ring Width: Most of our rings are between 2mm and 8mm wide and can be made in half mm widths too, for example 3.5mm. The width can affect the comfort of the ring and sometimes even the size needed. The wider the ring, the bigger the size you may need. The average width most women opt for is between 2mm and 4mm. Men tend to choose 5mm to 7mm widths. It's down to personal choice though and what feels right and comfortable for you and your style.
Which ring finish?
Mirror Polish: Our most common finish, shiny and highly reflective.
Matt Polish: A smooth non-shiny finish.
Brushed Finish: Non-shiny with a subtle brush stroke texture.
Matt Hammered Finish: Has surface indentation or dimples produced by hammering, with a non-shiny Matt finish.
Mirror Hammered Finish: Has surface indentation or dimples produced by hammering, with a shiny, reflective finish.
Frosted Finish: A course, grainy feel, speckled in appearance with a slight shimmer.
Price Match
We offer a Price Match service on the majority of our listed products. So what does Price Match mean? If you've found an identical ring with identical production specifications anywhere in the UK, send us the details and we will match that price.
