Loyd's New Year - A Trio of Problem Systemsby Loyd Case on January 13, 2010 12:00 AM EST
- Posted in
- Systems
It's the new year, which must mean it's time for all our PCs to go belly up.
Or so it seemed to me in the past couple of weeks. I thought the tale of these three systems is worth telling, as a lesson in recognizing and solving different types of PC problems. Perhaps you'll see something of your own PC troubles in this, but even if you don't, there are still lessons to be learned.
We'll begin this with the story of my daughter's ever-slowing Vista system.
The Tale of the Clogged PC
This past weekend, I'd decided it was time to nuke my daughter's system from orbit. It was the only way to be sure.
Emily's been running a fairly decent, though not bleeding edge system. Core components include an Intel QX6850, Asus P5Q3 Deluxe motherboard and an older 512MB Radeon HD 4870. Over the past couple of months, the system had begun running slower than molasses.
Emily is a fairly typical teenage girl when it comes to PC use. She uses the web heavily, and happily downloads anything she thinks she might like. She is, however, more tech savvy than most teenage girls, so she doesn't do really stupid stuff, like open phishing emails. However, she's a happy user of WildTangent games, likes to have the Weather Channel bug running (ugh, I say), and related sorts of gimmickry that can act as brakes on a fast system.
Recently, though, her system had been really dragging – so much so, that she'd given up on using it, and was using the communal living room laptop to do her homework and even run some light games. (I confess: I got her hooked on Torchlight.)
It all began several months back, when Emily began complaining that her system was glitchy. At the time, it was running Windows XP. I'd built the system about eighteen months ago, and it had been running reasonably well. I'd never been entirely happy with the QX6850, though. Even with a beefy Scythe Ninja cooler, the CPU typically idled at 58 degrees C. The QX6850 ran at 3GHz, but was built with the same 65nm process technology used in the original Conroe CPUs.
So I did something that, in retrospect, planted the seeds of bigger problems to come: I thought it would be a good idea to perform an in-place upgrade from Windows XP to Windows Vista.

loydcase - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkFor what it's worth, my daughter doesn't just play flash games. While Torchlight is not a big system hog, she also plays games like NeverWinter Nights 2, Titan Quest, Sins of a Solar Empire and other RTS and RPG titles. Reply
glockjs - Friday, January 15, 2010 - linkyou just named a slew of games that a 9800pro could easily handle :p Reply
Finally - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - link[quote]shows the reality we go through[/quote]
I'd rather state it this way:
This article shows the reality PC-incometent people have to go through, on a regular basis.
I'd say it's pretty hard to find a non-marketing-related article on the web that recommends going for that upgrade option, especially if you have a basement full of hi-end hardware and close to limitless software supplies at hand like the author here... Reply
Mugur - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkHi,
Just a quick comment regarding the first case: that machine needed just a clean Windows 7 installation (or even a clean Vista installation). No need to replace an "old" quad core with a "new" dual core...
And never do an upgrade XP - Vista or XP - 7, or even Vista - 7... Just clean installations.
masterbm - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkThe reminded me of my own experience of that. I have nforce 3 board that had suffered from various it seemed every 3 or 4 months and Then would be fine. Well last week it turned out that issue came from sata controller that was no longer function like it should. But I I did replace the core(ram,cpu,motherboard) of the machine anyway. It is time retire it. Reply
svrmstr - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkThanks for writing this article! I've experienced what you're talking about with the first system.
I have a P5Q3 Deluxe with 2 GB Corsair memory, a Q9550 and a Radeon 4870. I must say that this motherboard is extremely quirky when it comes to memory. I had to return 2 pairs of Corsair RAM before I got a set that would post - each pair that Newegg sent me was different, because they were being discontinued almost as quickly as they were released. Even after I got the system to POST with the 3rd set, I encountered lots of memory errors, but these errors weren't due to bad RAM chips, as I discovered using MemTest86+. I should mention that at the time, the RAM was on the QVL list, although that list has since gone through numerous revisions.
I spent a solid week researching and learning everything I could about the motherboard, quad-core CPUs and overclocking. (I wasn't trying to overclock at first, but such information would help me understand exactly what had to be done.) A few articles on AnandTech that dealt with Asus motherboards, overclocking and BIOS settings definitely pointed me in the right direction. Along with a couple of lengthy guides to overclocking with quad-core CPUs from other sources, I gained enough knowledge to make the system stable.
In the end, it involved fine-tuning the BIOS, setting just about every option manually. This meant many long hours of trial and error. As it turned out, the CPU settings required the most tweaking. Getting the right VCORE, PLL and GTL voltages, plus adding a 100ns delay really made a difference – the northbridge settings were also sensitive. It wasn't a matter of faulty RAM, as was the symptom, rather instabilities with the system as a whole. Individually each part performed flawlessly, but put them and you create a monster time sink. Notably, when I swapped in a Core 2 Duo E8400, all the memory errors went away. That's when I decided to really focus on the CPU settings. Honestly, this motherboard doesn't have reliable automatic settings, especially when you're using a Core 2 Quad. Let me add that I've used every BIOS revision since 1702 and they've all performed the same for me.
Now I'm running at 3.4 GHz core speed, 1600 MHz FSB and 1600 MHz memory. I wanted so badly to give up in favor of building a newer, better system, but it just wasn't in my budget. I hope that my story isn't too long; I wanted to share what I could. Here are links to some of the articles I read:
http://www.benchzone.com/page.php?al=Asus_P5Q3_Del...">http://www.benchzone.com/page.php?al=Asus_P5Q3_Del... Reply
nicknomo - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkI've had the same experience.. I've never really ran into memory that didn't work in a machine after some degree of tweaking in the BIOS.
I think that is an important lesson to learn, and a much better solution then constantly RMA'ing parts.
Just by looking at the reviews in newegg, I can see that most RAM incompatability issues seems to happen with modules that require higher voltages. With the advent of O/C'ing, a lot of manufacturers make memory that will only boot .2 or .3 volts above what a normal DIMM operates at.
Other problems usually stem from the motherboard reading the SPD of the modules and incorrectly setting the timings. Either way, bumping up the voltage on the memory and setting the timings and clock speed manually will often fix 99% of these problems..
yyrkoon - Thursday, January 14, 2010 - linkI have. That is, whenever I get CRC errors, or corrupt files, the first thing I do is check the BIOS settings for the memory to make sure they're correct. When I build a system the first thing I do after the first POST is to check to make sure these settings are correct. timings, as well as voltage.
I have however had bad sticks of memory from certain manufactures that I now try to avoid like the plague. They have good parts too, but I would rather not play a guessing game when trying to set up a new system.
Even my own favored brand rarely seems to relay the proper information to many a motherboard, so perhaps this is where / why I picked up this habit.
yonzie - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkA few years ago I had a pair of MSI 945G mATX boards heading for a server.
The harddrive I planned to use for one of the servers consistently killed the board.
It worked fine in other boards, the MSI board worked fine with other drives.
The combination of this particular drive and motherboard model consistently killed the board dead. Not helping troubleshooting, it worked fine on the initial boot, then it was gone. Reply
biostud - Wednesday, January 13, 2010 - linkOne of my friends had the same problem with the i7 and corsair memory, to get the system stable the memory had to run 1066Mhz, otherwise it would crash at random. Reply

Let me introduce you to Nick's hero: Kelli. The unthinkable happened Friday, the kids where swimming in the pool and I was sitting at the picnic table on the phone when Nicholas reached for a toy and fell into the pool! Kelli grabbed Nick and he grabbed her and with out a sound she held his head out of the water and tried to swim back to the steps. I jumped in clothes and shoes on and Kelli says to me its okay I got him! Nick was not half as scared as I was and Kelli saw that I was crying while hugging and kissing them both, she pulls away and says Mom you need to pull it together. (This is something I tell the kids all the time when they are falling apart)
Tyrene gave Kelli an award from the Red Cross (which Kelli proudly displays in her room) for saving Nicholas the day he fell into the pool.

4 Times Around
WOW! What a Wednesday, Jen and I stepped it up a notch and walked 4 miles in just over an hour in the morning and walked another 2 miles tonight while the kids where at AWANA! Talk about jumping into our fit and trim program. Our 2 day total is 9 miles, 5 blisters, 2 friends on their way to "skinny jeans".

Its all in a Name?
|What Nicole Means
You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts.
You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals.
You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing.
You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long.
You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start.
You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily.
You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind.
A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable.
You are well rounded, with a complete perspective on life.
You are solid and dependable. You are loyal, and people can count on you.
At times, you can be a bit too serious. You tend to put too much pressure on yourself.
You are relaxed, chill, and very likely to go with the flow.
You are light hearted and accepting. You don't get worked up easily.
Well adjusted and incredibly happy, many people wonder what your secret to life is.
You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.
You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.
At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.
Once Around?
Jen and I have talked all summer about starting to walk around the neighborhood to lose some of our "summer" weight. Jen who has 3 days practice was all set the morning while I dragged my @$$ over to her house. She has lightweight workout clothes while I had on terry cloth sweets and sneakers I did know I owned. So off we go with our walking companions Nick and Molly. I thought how hard could a mile be in 95 degree weather...... Well we did 3 miles in less then an hour and I was sweating in places I didn't know I had! I still don't know if the sweet was from the exercise or from the fact we where baking outside. Doesn't matter, we are hitting the trail tomorrow morning in our quest to be fit and trim.

Hurricane Fay, Please Go Away
Even though Fay is not a hurricane yet she has dropped tons of water and wind, here is the back yard right past the fence, and the pool area. We have not gotten to much water in the front yard as the back, but the wind has really started to pick up.
This is the street in front of the house, not so bad. No school again tomorrow due to all the flooding in our county.

First Day
All 3 wanted to wear their school t-shirts for the first day! Sal got manatee money for using his listening ears all day. Kelli had 2 pages filled out in her poetry book. Vinny loved his class all around. So a great first day had by all! We hope all our friends had a great first day too!

Happy Birthday to Me!
Crystal (http://crystalplus3.blogspot.com/ ) and I had dinner for our shared August birthdays (Her 9th, Me 11th) Saturday night to kick off a fun birthday weekend. Sunday, Tyrene (http://tyandj.blogspot.com) had a barbque birthday party for me and set up a pool for the kids.
Her friend Ashley brought over her children who spent the day making friends with my gang.
Monday, Mom and I took the kids to Lion Country Safari. All the animals where up and roaming around. The rhinos and zebras passed in front of our car. And a ram almost "rammed" us! The kids got to feed some goats and sheep,
and the giraffes. Nana had to show the how first!
Before we could leave we had to ride the Lions!

Just how healthy is fruit juice? A cup of it has more calories than a cup of Coke or Pepsi.
According to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, one cup of apple juice has 114 calories, and a cup of orange juice serves up 112 calories.
Compare that to soda: One cup of Coke is 97 calories, and one cup of Pepsi is 100 calories.
Apple juice also has plenty of sugar -- 29 grams, compared to 27 grams in Coke.
Betty Powell, of Dallas, said she lost more than 10 pounds after she snipped fruit juice out of her diet. She said people see "fruit juice" on the label and then assume that it's healthy.
"We think, 'Oh, this is nutritional, they've taken care of everything that needs to be handled," she said.
Stephanie Dean, a registered dietitian at Baylor Dallas who treats Powell, said people should be aware of where their calories come from.
"When we want to help people lose weight, we want them to watch their calories," she said. "Sometimes it comes from food; sometimes it comes from beverages."
But Sarah Wally, a spokeswoman for the Juice Products Association, said people should look at more than just the calorie count.
"Fruit juice provides a key source of valuable nutrients, including foliate, potassium and vitamin C," she said. "Simply discussing 'healthful choices' under the umbrella of caloric density is not scientifically accurate or fair to consumers."
Powell said she is sticking to eating fruit -- and drinking water.
"Every calorie counts," she said. "Sugar is sugar."

Wild Mushroom Stuffing
I made this one for Thanksgiving one year. It was loaded with mushrooms (mushroom-lovers will love it), and the egg bread is an absolute MUST! I used fresh challah bread and it was perfect. It took a while to make, but it was well worth it!
Prep Time:1 hour
Cook Time:1 hour 45 min
2 cups hot water
1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
1 1/2 to 1 3/4 pound loaf unsliced egg bread, crust trimmed, bread cut into 3/4" cubes (about 16 cups)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (3/4 stick)
4 cups coarsely chopped leeks (white and pale green parts only; about 3 medium leeks)
1 cup chopped shallots (about eight)
1 1/4 pounds crimini or button mushrooms, sliced
1/2 pound fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems removed, caps sliced
2 cups chopped celery
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 cup coarsely chopped toasted husked hazelnuts
3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme (or 1 tablespoon dried)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage (or 2 teaspoons dried sage)
2 large eggs, beaten to blend
3/4 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
1. Combine 2 cups hot water and porcini mushrooms in medium bowl; let stand until mushrooms are soft, about 30 minutes. Drain, reserving soaking liquid. Squeeze porcini dry; chop coarsely.
2. Preheat oven to 325°F. Divide bread between 2 baking sheets. Bake until beginning to brown, about 15 minutes. Cool. Transfer to very large bowl.
3. Melt butter in heavy Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add leeks, shallots, and crimini and shiitake mushrooms and sauté until golden and tender, about 15 minutes. Mix in celery and porcini; sauté 5 minutes. Transfer mixture to bowl with bread cubes. Mix in parsley, hazelnuts, thyme and sage. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill porcini soaking liquid and stuffing separately.) Mix eggs into stuffing.
4. To bake stuffing in turkey: Fill main turkey cavity with stuffing. Combine broth and 1/2 cup reserved porcini soaking liquid in large glass measuring cup. Add enough broth mixture to remaining stuffing to moisten (about 3/4 to 1 cup broth mixture, depending on amount of remaining stuffing). Spoon remaining stuffing into buttered baking dish. Cover with buttered foil. Bake stuffing in dish alongside turkey untilheated through, about 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until top is crisp, about 15 minutes.
5. To bake all stuffing in pan: Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 15x10x2" baking dish. Mix 3/4 cup reserved porcini soaking liquid and 3/4 cup broth into stuffing. Transfer stuffing to prepared dish. Cover with buttered foil and bake until heated through, about 1 hour. Uncover and bake until top is crisp, about 15 minutes.

How to install Exaile? (Gtk based media player)
Ran accross this in a post on Linux.com - if I'm reading it right it may be a viable choice for use in Puppy - its Gtk based and the screen shots of the interface look good - for whatever reason the tar.gz file will not install properly as an alien package so haven't been able to test it. Perhaps one of our more expert forum members could figure out whats needed. Link is below

I had a feeling that would be the case - think I'll pass on trying to play with this one. But it might be a worthwhile project for someone with the skills needed who has the time and likes/wants to tinker with putting a workable package together.

Bringing this subject back from the dead ....
I'd love to get Exaile working in Puppy so I don't have to run Ubuntu when I want my PC to be a jukebox.
I've seen a few posts where people tried compiling it but couldn't get it to run .....
This is one app that I love because it just works the way I want such an app to work, so it'll be worth it to make Puppy heavy if I have to. I'll even switch to a full hd install if I have to.
Where should I start? By installing all those dependencies, compiling them for puppy if necessary? Then compiling Exaile itself?
Any advice from experienced compilers would be appreciated. I will be starting from the instructions about compiling on the Wiki this weekend when I get some time.
Thanks all, and thanks to Barry for such a great distro,

Hi 97T, (Nice nick by the way!)
While I'm not a compiler and the most I've ever done are icon and theme packs, that's basically what you'd do is to install the dependencies first. Then you'd get a file for your version of Puppy known as "devx.sfs". So say like you're using Puppy 2.17, you'd look for the "devx217.sfs" module I believe it is, and you'd place that in your "/home" directory and then reboot Puppy which would cause it to register that file. (These are the "header files" missing from Puppy and which allow it to remain so small, but are needed by programmes when compiling, see?)
Then from there you'd get the
source files
of Exaile and follow the instructions which came with them. A hard drive install isn't even necessary for Puppy to do compiling.
But if I remember correctly?---do make sure that you've got a good SWAPfile partition as compiling can sometimes require a tonne of RAM/SWAP.
This is just basic mind you until someone more knowledgeable comes along, okie? But it does give you an idea that you're on the right track.

You got it 97T! "L'Peau Rouge" is Akadien (alternate spelling: "Acadien", parent language for "Cajun") and means "Red Skin" or "Native American Indian". Akadien is one of the most-popular variants of French spoken in Maine, USA, and dates back to the early settlers of "Acadia", which in the 15th and 16th Centuries encompassed the now existing areas of Maine, the Maritime Provinces of Canada, and The Gaspe of Quebec Province.
I believe you can find more on this subject under the Wikipedia but would more-likely find it under "Acadian" as I prefer the lesser-known variant spelling myself.
Oh yeah!---and I get my first nick from an old Tv series from several years back named "Dark Angel". The character by the same nickname in there and I have something in common (and no, I'm not a computer wizard like him but sure wished it so!).

That's interesting information, Eyes-Only.
OK, well I decided I was going to try to get Exaile compiled and running.
Being a Linux noob, I figured it might be a good way to learn a few things. Just as in Windows, what I learned was not what I thought I was going to learn.
First clue: Exaile is written in Python. First dependency: Python. The Python web page brags about it being compared to Visual Basic. Uh-oh.
First lesson: I find out what dependency hell is really about, trying to track down and download and manually install all kinds of packages, which need all kinds of other packages, and so on, and so on. I get a real appreciation for the meaning of the word
I blaze ahead anyway - I'm stubborn, and I know how to use Google, and besides it won't hurt me to learn a few command line basics. I'm shuttling between googling man pages, googling for source code, and trying to keep track of the maze I set myself into, when I trip over a reference to a dotpup that allows the use of the Debian installer. Wow, this should make things a lot easier! I install that, and start installing the required packages in .deb format.
But the debian installer itself gets caught in dependency hell. It wants to uninstall packages it just installed, moving from one package to the next. If you tell it to abort the uninstall, it appears to install the package, but then the window hangs and won't quit, and doesn't clean up temp files, I guess. Oh well, I blaze ahead. After some hours it looks like I might have the dependencies installed. So I install the main app, try to run it, and it complains about not having a module that I know I just installed. I uninstall, reinstall, try again. No dice. So I try to reboot, the machine hangs on shutdown. I power the thing off, restart, and Exaile still complains it doesn't have the module. And Puppy still won't shut down. Looks like I blew away something Puppy needs to run (not that I wasn't warned).
I finally give up, and restore the pup-save I made last night. There's nothing like a 5 minute restore to make me really like this operating system!
Lessons learned; There are some things not worth the effort, and Python really is like Visual Basic. But with Visual Basic they make you install the damned dotnet library package, larger than the human genome project. So at least if you convince someone to bloat their machine with the dotnet crap, the app has a chance of running.
I appreciate Puppy lean and mean and fast, so it has become apparent to me that Exaile is not suited for it. All told, I downloaded 118 megabytes of compressed programs and libraries. I think I'll go off in search of another MP3 player that can handle my collection.
Well anyway, I know how to compile from source now, and if the code will run in Puppy, it'll be a good thing to know.
I still wonder whether someone who knows what they are doing could pull this off. Or whether it just wouldn't be worth the effort for them, either.
That's enough blabbermouthing for now, I'll sign off.

I've compiled quite a lot of apps, but I keep well away from Python/Perl based apps.
I consider it extremely bad form to write programs in a scripting language (that's what Python is -- like Bash) and it make it a real big pain, also adding heaps of dependencies (since you need all kinds of additions to make the scripting langauge interact with GTK and all the other libraries.).
There are plenty of other apps to use as a jukebox.

Thanks, Dougal. As you can see, even though I spend lots of time reading here, I still seem to get my best lessons the hard way.
The whole thing got started off because I got addicted to the usability of the playlist functions in Exaile, and equally to the dynamic playlist function that connects to last.fm. When I have guests over, if I want something smooth, I start it playing something smooth, and it automatically picks similar music from my own collection. And it keeps going all night like that.
The other music players I've tried let you pick songs and play them. It's a very time consuming process to make static playlists, and I soon tire of them. At least they all play the music, though. And I don't care about skins. But I don't care for the Realplayer style interface. At all.
I'm still searching and installing the different ones. Unfortunately I don't think any of the ones for Puppy will do the last.fm thing. But even if I can't get that, at least I need a playlist function with a little more advanced features than just a long list.
Interesting to learn about Python and Perl, though.
Thanks for your comments,

i'm even less of an expert than most, so this idea might be useless, but here goes...
have you researched using
gslapt on puppy
? maybe that would be a good way to get all the dependencies resolved for building exaile.

Bonjour à tous,
I 've installed MU' pygtk-2.8.6.pup and exaile_0.2.1.0_i386.deb.
When i run in terminal exaile, i got this :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "exaile.py", line 21, in ?
import traceback, sys, gobject
ImportError: No module named gobject
When i run pet package manager it says that all dependancies require are here.
What's wrong?

I totally agree with Dougal about Python and Perl. They seem to be at odds with Puppy's lean-and-mean philosophy.
XMMS is the benchmark audio player in Linux -
I see that Last.fm requires an "Audioscrobbler" plugin. I just compiled the XMMS version of the audioscrobbler plugin -
And there's a very interesting playlist manager for XMMS here -
A highly regarded music jukebox / iTunes equivalent for Linux is Songbird -
and it has an audioscrobbler plugin, but the project is only at beta stage. I have been unable to get this to work in Puppy.
The main window launches, but I get an error about "Media Core", even though I installed the gstreamer backend.

Over the past several years, the Arthur C. Clarke Award has honored some of science fiction's most provocative, mind-expanding novels, among its winners as well as its finalists. Now the award's funding is running out.
The award was established by Clarke himself in the 1980s, to honor the best science fiction book published in the U.K. Its profile has continued to rise — as evidenced, among other things, by the recent spirited debates over the lack of women among its winners and shortlisted authors in recent years. But now after a quarter century, the award is facing a crucial turning point. According to the Guardian:
The award has always been run on a voluntary basis, with the funding going to support a cash award matched to the year (so this year the prize money was £2,010). But since Clarke's death in 2008, and the winding-up of his UK company Rocket Publishing, which funded the prize, the money has come to an end.
[Administrator Tom] Hunter said the 2011 Award, which will mark the prize's 25th anniversary, will definitely go ahead "one way or another", but that new arrangements will need to be made for subsequent years.
Hunter posted an open letter on Monday, asking for input as to what the prize's future should be. He wrote:
The Arthur C. Clarke Award is built around three core values:
* To recognise the best science fiction novels of the year published in the UK.
* To promote science fiction and science fiction literature both within the UK and internationally.
* To honour the memory and legacy of Sir Arthur.
I don't believe that our current resources should define the pursuit of this vision, and rather I see our previous funding model slipping away as a necessary transition and the first step on the road to transforming the Award into a more deeply engaged social enterprise.
You can get involved in the future of the Clarke Award on Facebook, Twitter, or by commenting on Hunter's open letter.

It takes a lot of nerve to call a Bangaa a lizard!
The bangaa is a race in the Final Fantasy series, exclusive to Ivalice.
- 1 Profile
- 2 Appearances
- 3 Non-Final Fantasy guest appearances
- 4 Gallery
- 5 Trivia
- 6 References
The bangaa are a lizard-like race, widespread across Ivalice. They have long faces, scaly skin, and tough limbs. They have two long ears dangling from each side of their heads, leading people to call them "long-ears". Their sense of smell and hearing are exceptionally sharp. They have a tall stature and are physically powerful, but their vocal structure makes it difficult for them to cast incantations, limiting their use of magick.
Due to their capacity in brute force, the bangaa are considered the most physically prominent of the Ivalice races. Voices aside, their reptilian appearance make it difficult to distinguish males and females. Their lifespan is roughly 1.5–2 times as long as a hume's.[1]
Calling a bangaa a "lizard" is considered a heinous racial slur. Another lizard-like race exists in Ivalice, generally referred to as the lizardmen, who are more primitive and violent than the bangaa, who resent the comparison. Unlike true reptiles, bangaa can grow facial hair.
Final Fantasy XII
The bangaa are covered with scales, and their ears fall below their lengthened muzzles. Their intelligence and manners are similar to humes' and it is often said bangaa are the race best integrated within the humes. Some humes are ill-disposed to the bangaa and speak about them using the slur "lizard" when far enough from their sensitive ears. Some hume-distinct nations, Archadia for example, prefer that bangaa not enter their ranks.
Bangaa can live up to twice as long as the average hume, but seldom procreate. They are strong and have fine senses of hearing and smell. They speak in a distinct, guttural voice, in a fashion similar to real-world Scottish accents. The bangaa vocal cords are not as clear and refined as those of the other races, and therefore cannot speak quite as well. This makes it difficult for them to use even the most basic magick. However, some bangaa do become sorcerers, using magickal formulas specific to their reptilian language.
Bangaa are separated into four sub-branches: the Bangaa Ruga with yellow-brown skin and shorter ears, the athletic Bangaa Faas with bronze skin, the Bangaa Bista with copper-colored skin, and the Bangaa Sanga with ash-colored skin. There are also breed mixes.
In the bangaa language it is said that "Faas" may mean soldier or "a strong sense of justice". Bangaa Ruga are more gentle and are more likely to be instructors or monks. The Bangaa Ruga and Faas generally make the laws and keep order among the bangaa. The Bangaa Bista and Bangaa Sanga tend to lead more laid-back lifestyles, making it easier for them to live and interact comfortably with humes. While some bangaa (for example the Ruga) may become rebels or fighters, other bangaa have been known to live as pillaging thugs.[1]
All bangaa are weak to the element of water.
Notable bangaa
- Migelo - Vaan and Penelo's "foster parent", runs a shop in Rabanastre.
- Ba'Gamnan - bounty-hunter who is after Balthier and, to a lesser extent, Fran.
- Monid - member of Clan Centurio, adoptive father to an orphaned hume child.
Final Fantasy XIV
The bangaa beastmen tribe appeared in Hydaelyn with the Return to Ivalice sidequest introduced in 4.1. They look similar to their counterparts from the Ivalice Alliance series, and the named bangaa fulfill roles similar to their namesakes in Final Fantasy XII due to the questline's story being an altered version of latter's events. They mention previously being fusiliers and harboring shame for not being able to keep their promises to the prince.
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Their tough bulk and intimidating look makes bangaa best suited to jobs that require brute force, like the Gladiator and Dragoon. This makes them a perfect match for the nu mou, who are spellcasters with low physical stats. Bangaas' rough vocal cords make it hard for them to chant spells, but they do have a magic-based class, the Bishop. When they speak, they usually lengthen the "s" sound (eg.- "takes" becomes "takess").
Bangaa is the only race that doesn't have an exclusive playable character.
The bangaa Totema is Adrammelech.

Dear Sam.
I just got your card and also Pa's and Lena's. That is some song and say don't we wish you were here now. Lena likes to bake with her new gas stove and the oven is great but you know pa and I are poor eaters. You may not have to stay much longer and then we'll see what Lena and her gas stove will do.
I see by the papers that you had a big storm down there. Did you have a wash hung out? If you did "Good Night Shirt." Mary was here when I was reading your cards and she feels sorry for you cause you're so busy. She sends her love and is waiting patiently for a letter. She can play Tipperary with one finger on the piano. She has your skin a mile. I took her over to the band concert in City Point yesterday. They have great music over there. They play all popular songs.
We had two showers yesterday and I got caught in one of them. We were on the front seat of a car and got soaked. Henry was over Sunday to dinner. He is feeling fine. Pa is feeling fine. He changes his watch tomorrow going to work at 10 and getting through at 8 at night. The kids are out here playing "hide & go seek" and making more noise than a whole army. Old George is out on the steps fighting with them. Its awful hard for me to write a letter because I never have anything to write about but I try and do the best I can.
We are all well and so is every one else I know. I am glad to know you are gaining, as it is better than getting any thinner. Well I have nothing else to write about now so I'll have to say Amen. Hoping this letter finds you well I will close
With Love from all

About a year ago I was asked to write out my testimony. I never shared it here on the blog. This is in part to the personal nature of my story. It isn't easy to write. It isn't easy to share. But it is beautiful to me... because Christ has carried me through.
Today I share with you my greatest Love, my deepest wound, my biggest Victory. Jesus isn't just a sweet story of my life, He is my life.
He knows you just as well, and desires that you know Him. May His work in my life encourage you to pursue this Man of Sorrows who lifts our head and makes us clean.
With much love,
Personal Testimony of How I Became A Christian
I grew up a "good girl" in the Catholic faith. I had a heart for God as a young child and into my teenage years. In high school and college I was very active within our parish and spent many hours volunteering in different capacities within the church.
Although I was known for being "religious" I was private about my faith. I received great comfort in knowing there was a God, and knew that He had the best in mind for me, but the concept of the Trinity was confusing: I preferred not to talk about Jesus because he felt too controversial. The Holy Spirit was frightening to me, so I chose not to dwell on Him. In many ways, that was how I played out my faith in those early years, picking and choosing my belief based on what I could understand or feel -- or worse, how I would be perceived. I felt fairly certain that being a "good girl" had worked for me, that I could continue to do good, be good, and hang out with good people, then God would know I was good.
However, I was shaky about how good would be good enough to be in God's favor. I assumed that this was where "faith" played out.
I met my husband, (The Mister), during a very difficult time in my life. My family and I were sitting in the fall-out of crises. Through a series of events in my freshman year of college, I had been forced to expose over a decade of sexual abuse under the hand of my paternal grandfather. In this process, the large extended family chose to support my grandfather. I certainly felt alone like I never had before.
Somehow, I never lost sight that God was with me, but suddenly, at nineteen years of age I was no longer the "good girl." I was the whistle blower on issues that didn't begin with me, and had long been swept under the rug.
It was about 18 months after this had come to pass that I met (The Mister). He was already a follower of Jesus and he patiently fed me the Good News of Christ, over and over again. During that first year of friendship, and then dating, he told me that the only way to know God was to know His Son, Jesus. He explained that God could not look upon me because of my sin. I could never be or do enough good, but there was hope. Christ gave up His own life to pay for my sin. I could admit my sin and receive his salvation, and know a true and right relationship with God. He explained that the Holy Spirit wasn't something to ignore out of fear, but that God's work through the Holy Spirit would allow me to grow in life and love and truth.
I knew (The Mister) served a very different God than the one I had been serving, but it took me a long time to understand and make a decision. One evening in December of 1993, while The Mister and I were praying, I realized that God's Word (the Bible) was true, and His sacrifice was personal and real. I decided to trust Jesus as my Savior - to follow Him alone.
Since this decision, my spiritual life has continued to be a process as I daily set aside pride and my desire to earn salvation, and to focus my trust in Jesus. I've learned (and continue to learn) that I am more than the things I've done or will do, much more than the people I know... I have learned that my significance is based on who Christ says I am.
I no longer desire to keep my spiritual life private because Jesus heals me, everyday. He heals me from the profound effects of my own sin, and the sin of others. His love has carried me through dark times; has lavishly repaid "the years the locusts have eaten-" (Joel 2:25) and has given me joy that can only come from walking through life with Him.

This is just a simple model that I did to test out a workflow. I will try to add an image daily, also hopefully making the models more complex as each one progress, along with adding variety (thus some non organic models).
Each modeling session I do I will sit down with a stop watch (not for speed modeling,... but just because some people may be curious... well I'm curious... ..) Plus, I tend to round up to the nearest 5 mins.
Also, all critiques are greatly appreciated.
PS... sorry for the first lathe model to be backwards.

2014 Mazda CX-9 Pricing Starts At $30,780
CX-9 pricing increases.
The 2014 Mazda CX-9 crossover will start at $30,780, including destination, when it goes on sale later this year, Mazda said today in a statement. After the 2013 Mazda CX-9 received a substantial face lift, including a new Kodo-inspired front fascia, the crossover has only minor changes for this model year. There is a new 20-inch wheel design, and Jet Black Mica and Blue Reflex Mica paint colors replace Brilliant Black and Dolphin Gray.
All versions of the 2014 Mazda CX-9 come with a 3.7-liter V-6 and a six-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard, and adding all-wheel drive bumps up the sticker by $1590. Opting for Mazda's special Crystal White Pearl Mica paint costs $200 on any version.
The aforementioned base price affords a 2014 Mazda CX-9 Sport front-wheel drive, on top of which buyers can pay $690 to add a power driver's seat, heated front seats, and heated mirrors. Moving up to the Touring trim level costs $33,275 and adds goodies like heated mirrors, automatic headlights, heated front seats, leather upholstery, a backup camera, rear parking sensors, and blind spot and rear cross-traffic warnings. The $3000 Touring Technology package adds a 10-speaker Bose audio system, fog lights, push-button start, navigation, a power moonroof, satellite radio, and a power liftgate.
The final tier for the 2014 Mazda CX-9 is the Grand Touring, which costs $35,830 with front-wheel drive. On top of the Touring model, it adds 20-inch wheels, chrome door handles, fog lights, automatic HID headlights, LED running lights, a power liftgate, push-button start, and a special armrest with cupholders for the second row of seats. The $2435 GT Technology package adds navigation, a 10-speaker Bose audio system, a power moonroof, and satellite radio. The $3245 Rear Seat Entertainment System package (which cannot be optioned at the same time as the GT Tech pack) bundles an 11-speaker Bose audio system, a nine-inch DVD player screen, navigation, satellite radio, and a 115-volt power outlet. Finally, the $100 Towing Prep option adds a 3500-pound tow rating, reprogrammed engine computer, transmission cooler, and heavy duty radiator fan. It is only available on front-wheel-drive GT models, as the prep package is standard on the all-wheel-drive CX-9 GT.
Reports indicate that an all-new version of the Mazda CX-9, possibly powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, will debut in two years' time as a 2016 model.

When I was fourteen or fifteen and living in NE Texas, 'Famine' County to be more precise, I used to frequently cross the border. Not Mesico. No, Oklahoma. Yep. Go figger.
You see, back-in-the-day (Early Seventies), the drinking age got lowered to 18, mainly because it just was not fitting for a boy to go to Vietnam and not even be able to buy a beer ere he got there. Time enough for that once he got there, but you see, it became a matter of principle.
Well, my 'group' took advantage of that. You see, it was very difficult to tell a teenager's age: I mean,
"How do you know he ain't eighteen? He looks twelve, but hell! Ok, serve it up."
And even better: In Oklahoma, well, they just did not give a shit. If you had money and could reach the bar, well, there you go.
OK, enough preamble and background. Early one morning (after about 0100hrs) my buddies and I, after having closed down the bars in Commerce (Texas), decided we were not drunk enough. So, natch, we drove to The Border, as I said: Oklahoma. Our mission: To hustle Pool and make the next day's beer money.
Our favorite hang was a place just 'cross da river. A place who's name escapes me, but trust me: it was famous. There is a very long, very dark, very narrow bridge across the Red River. If one could successfully navigate that, being drunk… well, you needed a drink.
Now, do not mistake me, this establishment was always 'closed' by the time we usually arrived at thereabout 0200hrs, but I knew the guy behind the 'Speak-Easy' window and I knew the password: "Joe sent me."
Good to go.
They legally closed the bar at 0100hrs, but then remained open until first light. If one arrived around 0200hrs, one could shoot pool for four or five and then migrate to the back room where the crap tables were. I knew all the drills.
My gang and I sauntered in, bought some beers and Bob and I proceeded to 'hustle' pool. For beers. ONLY.
We were already drunk; we did not need to hustle beers. We wanted money for the crap game. Bob and I spent the better part of two hours hustling beers, and had pretty much drained the joint, when this dude drops his quarter on the table. He was long and lankly and had his right hand missing. Yep. He was 'handicapped" Errr… handless. I nudged Bob and said, "This chump cannot beat me. At pool."
And, of course, I was right, but… damn! He was good. He used his 'stub' as a bridge and shot a mean Eight-Ball. I beat him outta bout a case of Coors. He got pissed and walked by me:
"You done stepped on my foot," he said.
"No Sir, I did not, but if you think I did, well, I'm sorry…"
"YOU done STEPPED on my FOOT!"
"No Sir."
Bob took me aside along with my other entourage; Peanut, Gene, and Jessie (a big black kid who had played star halfback for the Honey Grove Warriors back in the day—yes—he was older, and I did notice him putting razor blades between his fingers)
"Many-Feet" Peanut said, "That there one-armed man gonna beat you to some death with that nub."
"Bullshit!" I said.
"No bullshit. Go ahead; hide an' watch."
To be continued….
Okay. Continued:
He beat me 'bout to death with that nub, just as Peanut foresaw.
Wish I had 'foresaw'.
Dem Okies…well.. they some tough sons ah bitches, all I gotta say.

You can now buy CS Extension Builder 1.5 on the Adobe Store. We had a large number of requests to put the product on the Store rather than having to sign up to an Adobe Partner Program. We wanted the price to be appealing and affordable for developers, so it's starts at just $10 a month and we are working hard to create new ways to monetize and distribute your extensions. More on that in 2012. Until then, you can check out the CS Extension Builder product page for the ability to buy the product, try it out or simply learn more about it.
May I also take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays.

The Five Hottest Black Friday Trends This Year [SPONSORED]
From resale shops, to smartphone shopping apps, here are the top five trends you'll find on the biggest shopping day of the year:
- 1
Resale Shops
Why pay full price for trendy designer pieces like Coach purses or Miss Me jeans, when you can find those same brands and more throughout the year at resale and consignment shops for 25-75% off? Add on Black Friday savings to already reduced prices, and you'll have some extra change in your wallet to buy even more items at an affordable price!
Located in Lufkin and Nacogdoches, Rose Cottage Resale will be open on Friday and Saturday with a great selection of apparel and accessories from American Eagle, Abercrombie, Ralph Lauren, Juicy Couture, Buckle, Chicos, BCBG and more. Stop by and see how much money you'll save this year!
- 2
Doorbuster Deals
The best time to shop on Black Friday is usually early in the morning, when stores are having 'Doorbuster Deals' or 'Blowout Sales' because many must-have items are featured for a limited time only.
Between 7:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. on Friday, Baskins in Lufkin, Nacogdoches, Livingston and Crockett will be having 'Doorbuster Deals', featuring scarves, watches up to 50% off, Famous Maker Candles up to 75% off, wallets starting at $5.97, select jeans up to 85% off, boots, toys, ornaments and much, much more.
Some of the items as well as others will be available at a lower price throughout the day, but be sure to get there early so you can dig through the best selection of items on your shopping list.
- 3
Black Friday Shopping Apps
Did you know you can find Black Friday shopping apps for your smartphone? Now that we are living in a digital world, consumers can use their mobile devices to find and compare items at different locations to get the best deal or even purchase them directly from their phone.
Some of the best apps include 'The Find', 'FatWallet', and Amazon's 'Deal App' and 'Flow App', which lets you take a picture of a product's bar code with your camera to get all of the information you need and lets you purchas the iteme right from the app.
- 4
Layaway Shopping Plans and Early Store Hours
In the current state of our dwindling economy, major retailers are targeting consumers who are cautious of using their credit cards and guiding them to purchase items using their layaway plans.
Layaway plans allow you to stretch payments 0ver a period of time. Although these types of items were limited in the past, stores like Best Buy and Walmart have recently been promoting popular toys and electronic items on their layaway lists in order to attract more customers.
More stores are starting to use the term 'Black Thursday', since their doors are opening at 10:00 p.m. or midnight on Thanksgiving instead of the traditional Friday morning hours. Walmart, Toys R' Us, Best Buy and Target are among some of the national retailers partaking in this modern tradition. More hours, means more shopping (and more crowds...).
- 5
Need Cash? Get a Loan!
With the heavy promotion of Black Friday and holiday shopping, many consumers are tempted to conquer the crowds to get the best deals, but often can't get what they want due to monetary constraints.
By visiting places like The Loan Depot, you'll be able to meet qualified title loan brokers who will help you arrange title loans as well as personal loans of up to $5,000. Plus, they can give you up to 12 months to pay it off! It's an easy way to get money in your pockets right away, with no credit checks, so that you can shop without worrying about your financial situation.
They also do auto, truck, boat, trailer, 18-wheeler, construction equipment, boat, and motorcycle title loans, too. Visit one of their three locations in Lufkin, Nacogdoches or Crockett to get instant cash, or to set up your loan!

• A daily summary of global reports on security issues.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has unequivocally blamed Iran for bombing attacks on Israeli diplomatic targets in India and Georgia yesterday, intensifying an already contentious standoff between Israel and Iran over Iran's nuclear program.
"Iran is behind these attacks," Mr. Netanyahu said in an emailed statement, according to Bloomberg. "Israel will act methodically and take strong yet patient action against the international terrorism that originates in Iran."
Iranian officials have accused Israel of a false flag operation, executing the attacks itself in order to "stir up sympathy from other countries," Iran's PressTV reports.
The past record of the Israeli regime clearly demonstrates that its elements have previously carried out such operations to gain popularity and evoke sympathy from other nations, said Deputy Chairman of the Majlis Committee on National Security and Foreign Policy Ismail Kowsari on Tuesday.
Kowsari reiterated that Israelis stage such attacks against themselves in an attempt to accuse other countries, particularly Iran, and score political gains for their ominous objectives.
Neither the deputy chairman nor PressTV enumerated any such attacks, however, mentioning only the recent assassination of an Iranian nuclear scientist – one of at least four recent murders of nuclear scientists which Iran blames on Israel. However, the liberal Israeli newspaper Haaretz reports that Israel is not expected to react harshly to yesterday's bombings.
One reason for this is that if, as is widely believed, Israel is behind a recent series of assassinations of Iranian nuclear scientists in Tehran, government officials presumably knew that Iranian revenge attacks were likely and took that possibility into account. Though an innocent diplomat's wife cannot be compared to a scientist directly involved in Iran's nuclear program, Monday's attacks were still limited enough that they didn't violate the "rules of the game." Indeed, the modus operandi of the New Delhi bombing exactly mimicked that used to kill several of the Iranian scientists. Hence a direct [retaliatory] Israeli military strike on either Hezbollah or Iran seems unlikely.
Nevertheless, two caveats are in order. First, these attacks may not be the last, but rather the first in a series. Second, it could be that the planners were capable of wreaking greater harm, but deliberately chose to cause only modest damage. Israel has repeatedly warned that a mass-casualty Hezbollah attack on Israeli targets overseas would spark a massive Israeli assault on Lebanon, and that is something Iran doesn't seem to want right now.
India is in a difficult spot, with strong ties to both countries.
Indian security experts say that India's "less-than-stellar intelligence and surveillance capabilities" make it an easier place to stage an attack, the Wall Street Journal reports on its "India Real Time" blog. "It would be fairly difficult to mount [Monday's attack] in better policed countries and countries with a better intelligence apparatus," Ajai Sahni, executive director of the New Delhi-based Institute for Conflict Management, told the Journal. "India's vulnerabilities to terrorism are very, very high."
[Bharat Karnad, a professor of national security studies at the New Delhi-based Center for Policy Research] said that India could become "easy ground" for more such attacks if it doesn't take strong measures. It also needs to send "strong messages to nations to fight their wars in their own land," he said. Otherwise, "India could see many more attacks of this kind in the future."
India will likely be under substantial pressure now to weaken its ties to Iran, which it has assiduously maintained despite European and US sanctions, India's Economic Times reports.
The president of the All India Rice Exporters' Association will undermine willingness to deal with the "elaborate" agreements necessary for the two countries to trade despite sanctions that have eliminated many channels of payment they used to use, Reuters reports.
India is Iran's biggest oil buyer and supplier of rice and it is Iran's second-largest arms supplier, according to Reuters. The Commerce Ministry is still planning to send a business delegation to Iran this month to look into ways to boost exports to Iran.
In Israel, the whole country has been placed on an increased state of alert, the Associated Press reports, and Israeli officials believe that yesterday's bombings are the first in "a wave of terror." This morning, Thailand's capital of Bangkok was rocked by a series of bombings, but there is little conclusive information available regarding those attacks, aside from an identity card found on one of the bombers indicating that he may be Iranian, according to a separate AP report.

The temperatures are dropping and we're all feeling a chill to our bone as we head to work in the mornings. The workweek is feeling dull and let's face it, we're all downright grumpy and lazy. Some call this sluggish feeling the "winter blues," and it commonly hits us around this time of year, making us feel weary and tired.
But it doesn't have to be this way. We can still be productive workers during the winter months. Considering our current state in the workplace, this might be easier said than done. But before you write me off, try these six tactics to work through and beat the winter blues at work:
1. Look ahead at the next month's worth of work.
Sometimes looking ahead at your work weeks can put things into perspective and light a fire under you. This is especially helpful if you've been working for the weekend and haven't taken into account things coming down the pipe.
2. Prioritize your work.
We all know there's nothing less motivating than a huge pile of tasks and projects when you're already feeling less than enthusiastic. So try prioritizing your to-do's to feel more productive during your day. Set small goals for your week to finish tasks on time. Looking ahead will help you figure out what needs to be prioritized.
3. Take advantage of your upcoming weekend.
What I mean by this is that if you're feeling fatigued from the cold or general lack of sunlight, use your weekend to catch up on sleep, get your schedule back on track, and eat well. Coming back to work as refreshed as possible will help you feel like yourself again.
4. Sneak in some office exercise.
Nothing works better to get you refocused than some healthy exercise. So I challenge all of you to take a walk outside or up and down the stairs during your next break at work. While it doesn't sound appealing, you'll feel better for it afterward.
5. Allow yourself to indulge in your winter blues haze.
But don't do this for long! The only reason why I'm suggesting this is because sometimes it takes a little indulgence to shake off the winter blues. I suggest going out to eat with a friend for lunch at work or leaving early one day. But whatever works for you — it might help more than you think.
6. If you can, turn off your cell phone and close any other distractions online.
Don't lie, you probably have Facebook, Twitter, or your favorite blog up right now at work. Well, it's time to close up shop and focus. Whatever distractions you find yourself accustomed to at work, be more proactive about shutting them off. If you tend to text a lot on the job, turn off your phone for an hour to focus on your work.
