The one thing architects don't have a shortage of these days are options, especially when it comes down to choosing the client technology that best suits their current project. Is it a web applications, or would be better to have it run natively on the desktop? Or perhaps a hybrid approach? In this episode of ARCast.tv, Denny Boynton talks with Brian Noyes, Chief Architect at iDesign, about what architects should consider when making decisions about which client technology to use.

The Only Thing Missing Is a Team
Quebec's Nordiques Moved On Years Ago, but Their Fans Have Not; The 'Hippies' of the NHL
Quebec City
Three years ago, Jerome Landry founded a fan club for a professional hockey team in his hometown of Quebec City. Since then, he says, it has grown to include 90,000 members.
What makes this particular fan club unusual, beyond the sheer number of people who belong to it, is the status of the team it supports—the Quebec Nordiques. In case you'd forgotten, the Nordiques don't currently exist. They packed up their sticks and skates in 1995 and moved to Denver.
To overcome the small inconvenience of not having an actual team to root for, the members of Nordiques Nation organize trips to NHL games in other cities, where they show up wearing the disbanded team's traditional sky-blue jerseys. To make their presence known, and to make it clear that they are still not happy about their team's departure, they consume as many beers and hot dogs as they can and stand up to scream their brains out whenever the game clock shows 17 minutes remaining in a period (the Nordiques have now been gone for 17 seasons).
"We're like the hippies of hockey," said Landry, a 36-year-old radio talk-show host. "We just want to get our team back."
In 1995, after 24 years in the NHL and before that, the long-defunct World Hockey Association, the team—citing financial problems—moved the franchise to Denver to become the Colorado Avalanche.
Some fans just started following the local junior team, the Quebec Remparts, which draw 11,000 fans to the Nordiques' old rink, Colisee Pepsi. Some young fans simply transferred their NHL allegiance to the rival Montreal Canadiens, who play a mere 160 miles away.
But for Nordiques die-hards, junior hockey won't suffice, and rooting for the loathsome Canadiens was never an option. As the NHL playoffs approach next week, the absence of the Nordiques continues to torment them like a phantom itch.
In the last month, however, hope in this hockey-gaga city of half a million has reached a new high. A series of news reports have suggested the NHL, which has controlled the Phoenix Coyotes since its owner declared bankruptcy in 2009, may consider moving the team here—or giving the city an expansion franchise. While an NHL spokesman declined to comment on the matter, one thing is perfectly clear: If the NHL does decide to return to Quebec City, the townspeople will be ready.
In the summer of 2010, Quebec City mayor Regis Labeaume asked for the public's support to build an arena that could support an NHL team—even though there was no promise of landing one. Construction has begun on the new arena, a $400 million project, paid for with public funds, that is scheduled to be finished in 2015. The Nordiques even have a prospective owner: Pierre Karl Peladeau, who last month stepped down as chief executive of the media and cable firm Quebecor Inc. Through a spokesman, Peladeau declined to comment. The frenzy is so intense that every souvenir shop along this city's cobblestone streets has Nordiques paraphernalia hanging in the window.
"They're alive," former Nordiques defenseman Dave Pichette said, if only "in the minds of the people."
"They're very close to their team and proud of their city," said Rejean Houle, who played three years for the Nordiques in the mid-1970s. "For them, when the Nordiques left, that was a catastrophe."
The Nordiques didn't go out on a high note. After seven consecutive playoff appearances, the team finished in last place every year from 1988 to 1992 and was wasting away in the league's second-smallest market. The nadir came in 1991, when superstar Eric Lindros refused to sign with the Nordiques after they selected him with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. By trading Lindros's rights to the Philadelphia Flyers for a stockpile of players and draft picks, the Nordiques were able to rebuild their roster and renew the city's enthusiasm. But in 1995, the lagging value of the Canadian dollar forced owner Marcel Aubut to sell. The following year, the Avalanche—not the Nordiques—won the Stanley Cup.
"It was very, very hard," said François Vallerand, 29, an assistant manager at Logo Sport, a sports-apparel store. "It's kind of your identity. Quebec City is not very big, so it's kind of all we had here."
Benoit Clairoux, the author of "'Les Nordiques de Quebec: 1972-1995," said Quebec City's attachment to the team is tied to an inferiority complex. The Nordiques played in the same division as the Canadiens, who have won a record 24 Stanley Cups. In five postseason meetings, Montreal won three.
Paul Gillis, a former Nordiques forward, said the games were so heated, "you can't even describe the energy." One 1984 playoff matchup, called "the Good Friday Massacre," featured 252 penalty minutes and 10 ejections and, in some cases, divided families.
New Jersey Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur grew up a Canadiens fan in Montreal, but his mother, Mirielle, who was from Rivière-du-Loup, near Quebec City, rooted for the Nordiques. "She was the only one," he said. "She stayed strong."
Craig Wolanin, a former Nordiques defenseman, recalled meeting a man at Saint François d'Assise Hospital in 1995 whose wife was pregnant with twins. After the woman gave birth, Wolanin said, he asked the man how the twins were doing. "He said, 'They're doing fine,'" Wolanin recalled. "'You just make sure that you beat the Canadiens on Thursday.'"
During a visit to the construction site for the new arena, Labeaume, the Quebec mayor, waded through cold, gray mud, stopping at a spot where one of the rink's faceoff circles will likely be, and pointed to a Nordiques flag flying from an industrial crane. After taking office in a special election in 2007, he was re-elected with 80% of the vote—an indication, he said, of how popular the arena project is. He said he's confident he'll win again because he has "delivered the merchandise."
Thousands showed up in 2010 for a rally to support the campaign to bring back the Nordiques. Thousands attended the arena's groundbreaking ceremony last year. And it bothered none of them, Labeaume said, that the money to build the place would come from their pockets.
"They don't bloody care," he said. "They just want to have a hockey team."

An LPD reality check is overdue
Given the rapidity with which the Lakeland Police Department scandals have unfolded, it is easy to lose sight of the fact that it was three months ago when State Attorney Jerry Hill first reported immoral on-duty behavior to the LPD's leadership.
Several members of the department were having sex — during duty hours, in the police station and patrol cars — with an employee, Hill reported. Many of the officers and the administrative employee with whom they were carrying on a relationship reportedly admitted to the truth of the allegations.
Thus far, 24 officers, up to the rank of captain, have been disciplined, including 13 who resigned in the face of termination.
In other words, this was not the misbehavior of a couple of rogue rookies.
The officers disciplined apparently did not include those on the force, including supervisors, who were aware of the misconduct and did not report it.
Hill's office determined that the veracity of seven officers was so suspect that they will not be called to testify by his prosecutors.
Though it received less notice, at about the time Hill made his report last June, posts on Facebook showed risqué remarks about police misconduct allegedly written by Lakeland's 911 dispatchers on mirrors at an Orlando bar.
No disciplinary action was taken.
The most recent scandal developed last week when a Lakeland officer was charged with two counts of sexual battery and one count of stalking. The accused officer is entitled to his presumption of innocence.
But no such presumption exists in a publicly-aired radio conversation between a 911 dispatcher and an officer sharing laughter about a victim's call for help, saying that she was being pressured to have sex by a Lakeland police officer.
Was the alleged perpetrator emboldened by the lack of criminal prosecution of his 24 colleagues? Or was he reassured by the fact that an officer who required a young woman to shake her bra after a traffic stop was disciplined only for failing to key his microphone during the incident, not for his conduct? As state attorney, Jerry Hill finally has had enough.
Last week, he wrote a letter to the city's governmental leadership saying it was apparent that Chief Lisa Womack is "incapable of leading the Lakeland Police Department."
He said the city's "course of action has been to stonewall, filibuster, and hope the problems go away."
City Manager Doug Thomas said Hill's charges are "both wrong and reckless." Mayor Gow Fields also defended the city's inaction.
Hill has questioned why the city is spending money to try to block release of a grand jury report on its investigation into conduct at the LPD. In its investigative role, the grand jury is held in our system to be the ultimate fact-finding authority. Hill said that the police chief's defense that she inherited her problems from her predecessors doesn't excuse what has happened on her watch.
A whisper campaign has suggested that the criticism of the chief is related to the fact that she is a woman.
Oh, please! Haven't we gotten beyond that lame response when a woman or a minority is held to account for his or her performance in public office? Chief Womack's response was to say that Hill doesn't like her. Only Hill and Womack know if that is true.
Even if it is, does that excuse rampant misconduct on duty, unreliable testimony, and an "Isn't that funny?" attitude by a dispatcher and an officer over a charge of sexual intimidation by another officer? It could be persuasively argued that our city, like others in Polk County, doesn't really have a dog in this fight. But Lakeland is the 500-pound gorilla among Polk's municipalities, and its widely-publicized problems have attracted endless unfavorable attention throughout Central Florida.
Visiting motorists driving through Lakeland are entitled to see an LPD police car without wondering about the professionalism of the officer behind the wheel. All Polk Countians have an interest in seeing the county's largest municipal police force earn the respect of the entire county.
A reality check at the LPD is long overdue.
The police chief answers to the city manager; the manager answers to the mayor and the city commission; the mayor and commissioners answer to the voters.
Somewhere in that pecking order, corrective action is long overdue.

Heart at the Right Angle (chakra box no. 4)
Installing this sculpture in the corner of the room, at a place of juncture, seems a fitting gesture to speak of the delicate balance between meeting my needs as an individual artist and the needs of the community I serve as an artist. I am attached to these two "places" and I have found comfort and meaning in the metaphor of the function of the heart.
The heart must first pump blood to itself before it can serve the needs of the body. Reflecting upon this metaphor enables me to honor the space between these "places," which is neither about only the one or the other, but about the profound connection between them both.
The origins of this piece reflect the roots of my initial experience with artmaking as a healing practice, as a means to symbolically care for myself and my body. It was inspired in part by the beliefs contained within Hinduism, with regard to the energy centers in the human body called chakras. This chakra box shows the heart bathed in green light and protected by hawthorn berries. Green is the color associated with balancing the heart chakra and hawthorn berries are used in herbal medicine to heal the heart.
My work as an artist is deeply affected by my relationships with the cancer patients I work with each day as the Artist in Residence of the University of Pennsylvania Cancer Center. I hope with them, I laugh with them, listen to their dreams and fears, and marvel at their courage, grace, and strength. In the silence of my studio, I carry all these things within my heart and I seek to create a momentary sanctuary for myself and for them.

Spartanburg man accused of providing handgun used to shoot at a woman
Published: Friday, September 6, 2013 at 6:07 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, September 6, 2013 at 6:07 p.m.
A Spartanburg man is accused of providing a handgun used to shoot at a woman and assisting a suspect in an attempted murder.
Tyrone David Green, 40, of 220 Sims Chapel Road, has been charged with accessory before the fact to a felony, as well as accessory after the fact to a felony in connection to an incident that occurred Aug. 17.
Spartanburg Public Safety responded to a disturbance with weapons shortly before 10 p.m. Aug. 17. On scene, officers spoke with three women who had injuries to their heads and faces and were "bleeding profusely," according to an incident report.
A gun magazine was on the ground at the incident scene, but all victims denied a gun was presented and no weapon was found in the immediate area, the report states.
The victims were "reluctant" to tell officers what happened or provide details, saying they were attacked by three females and did not want to pursue charges, the report states.

Singing almost always make me yawn. I've heard this is due to not breathing correctly, but I'm not sure what that means. What's the correct way to breathe while singing so I don't yawn?
One cause of yawning can certainly be that your body needs more oxygen, so key to solving the problem is getting enough breaths in. Some scores have breaths marked, but for others you'll need to work out for yourself where you can fit your breaths in.
You can train for bigger breaths but some people find it difficult to breathe properly. I know a couple of people who were asthmatic and had this problem, and they found swimming helped them learn to breathe more deeply and take deeper, more controlled breaths.
One of the first thing you could do is to train yourself to yawn : yawn and alternatively inhale and intonate at a standard voice level at the same time, opening the mouth as wide as possible.
Do that slowly, several times before starting to sing.
It will flex your face muscles in a good way and place your lower jaw. A little side benefit is that you will be less likely to yawn after this exercice. Our singing teacher used to make us do this and a little series of other warmups before every session.
You could also have an iron deficiency, which affects the amount of oxygen your system can use. I'd say go and talk to a GP and see if it's possibly medically related as well as a technique thing.
More generally about breathing properly while singing:
If you put one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach, the chest hand should remain still and the stomach hand should move out when you breathe in and in when you breathe out. This should allow you to get more oxygen out of your breaths, regardless of how many you take.
I experienced the same thing when I was first learning to sing. I think that yawning is your body's natural reflex to open up wide, flex and then relax all the muscles in your larynx, throat and mouth (all of which you need to remain flexible and in control to sing properly). Yawning is good for warming up before singing, but not good if it interrupts your singing. Back then I found that I would yawn a bit at the beginning of rehearsal, but I never yawned during performance because I focused mentally on giving the best performance that I could, and got so busy focusing on forming each note that yawning was no longer a possibility.
Yawning while singing is not necessarily a sign of improper breathing. Rather, it could be a sign of good throat position. Proper vocal technique across a wide variety of styles (including classical, folk, and pop, all of which I'm trained in) has a singer open their throat and raise their palate in the rear, similar to the motion you make while yawning. This helps keep the sound from being overly nasal.
Of course, yawning while singing is not really a great thing if it affects your singing. There are several things you can do to help. Firstly, learn to sing through a yawn. You'd be surprised how, with a little training, you can sing straight through without losing tone while you're yawning. Another thing you can do is learn what exactly triggers you to yawn while you sing and modify your tongue and throat position slightly -- you want your mouth and throat to be shaped similarly to a yawn, but it's possible you're going a bit too far and actually triggering a yawn unintentionally.
Proper breath support can also help decrease our propensity to yawn while singing, though, as I mentioned, I'm very reluctant to say that yawning is caused by poor breathing.

I recently shot some video footage and I used the camera's mic (I know it was a bad idea, but...). Unfortunately, there was some on-going background noise (I think it was a fan). How can I get rid of the noise?
migrated from avp.stackexchange.com Jan 24 '14 at 12:01
This question came from our site for engineers, producers, editors, and enthusiasts spanning the fields of video, and media creation.
In your audio editor, switch to spectrum view and try to identify the frequency band of the fan noise. Next you can either use a parametric EQ or a filter.
If you have a parametric EQ, you can easily roll off the top or bottom frequencies, or cut the frequency band that the fan occupies.
If you are using a filter, then use a low pass filter with a high frequency setting to cut out high frequency fan sounds. Use a high pass filter with a low frequency setting to cut out low frequency fan sounds. Use a band reject filter to remove a specific frequency range in the middle.
If you don't already have an audio editor, get Audacity. Be sure to get the audio plugin packs as well.
I'm having some trouble with my copy of Audacity, I'll update this when I've reinstalled it with the latest plugins.
I use the Audacity Noise Removal tool for this all the time. It's a little tricky to figure out, but it does a great job once you know how to use it.
It's a two step process - first select a section of the audio that has nothing but noise. Then in the Audacity Effect menu, select Noise Removal, then click Get Noise Profile.
At this point, nothing will have changed in your audio, you'll just have taught Audacity what's considered noise for the current track.
Next, select the entire track and select Effect / Repeat Noise Effect (on Windows, you can just press Control-R). This will apply your noise settings to the entire track. If you prefer to dial in the settings, you can instead select Effect / Noise Removal, tweak setting, and click OK, but I never bother with this.
There's a more detailed walkthrough on Noise Reduction in the Audacity documentation.

When should I stick with the rule of thirds and when should I break it? And when I break it, what should I use instead to drive eyes to specific points in the photo?
The rule of thirds to me is a rule of thumb, a reminder not to mindless frame my subject dead centre of the frame, or else I will probably end up with static or boring images overall.
As a beginner, it's a good rule to keep in mind. Not to blindly follow, but to help encourage you to try different framing, perspectives and so forth. As an experienced photographer, you'd probably not even think about it but you'd naturally tend to frame subjects off centre to make them more interesting.
Specific situations where rule of thirds might be "broken"? I would say primarily this is where symmetry is the focus of the image:
For specific effects
The bottom line is that you are the boss and if you think it looks good then don't worry what the rest of us think!
Given that, here are some suggestions...
Placing a subject in the centre can:
... Or you might go the other way and place a subject right at the edge of the frame. An example is someone peeking into the frame. This makes the viewer think about what is outside the frame, and creates a not-entirely-comfortable feeling that the image is out of balance. Usually photographers want to avoid this, but if it is what you are looking for in your work then go for it.
How to drive the eye?
The human eye:
... that's a bit of a random selection, but I hope it helps.
The best way to know how, and when, to break the rule is to consume photography - eat up other people's works and develop your taste, find what you like and who you like. Soon, you'll develop your eye to the point where you know how to compose a scene to best do that subject the way you wanted it.
The other suggestions are good, for giving you a general perspective of what effect certain compositions might have, but they are just the outward effects of innately being able to compose a scene from having consumed enough photography (and other art, too) of others.

Signum - For YouARDI1879 - December 3rd, 2010
The sound of the legendary Signum duo has been resounding in the dance scene for nearly one and a half decade. The two musical masterminds, Ron Hagen and Pascal Minnaard, have kept trance alive throughout the years. Their discography is a collection of ultimate trance classics and future favourites, creating one anthem after another. In 2010, the time is right to finally release the debut album everyone's been waiting for. In dedication to all their fans and supporters, Signum proudly presents 'For You'.
Throughout the years, the Dutch duo has grown and developed, getting into a more diverse sound, without ever losing the true trance sound that they started with in 1997. 'What Ya Got 4 Me', 'Coming On Strong', 'Push Through', 'First Strike', 'Distant Signature', the more recent 'Addicted', 'Riddles In The Sand', Roger Shah collabs 'Healesville Sanctuary' and 'Ancient World', remixes for Armin van Buuren, Tiësto, ATB and many others, all tracks and remixes ride that typical, unrivalled Signum sound. Praised for his unrivalled DJ sets, Ron performed at A State of Trance 400 and 450, as part of a line-up voted for by the millions of listeners of Armin van Buuren's radioshow.
But Signum wasn't planning to stick to their past successes. Now, at the end of 2010, Ron and Pascal are proud to present their first artist album. 'For You' is a full-colour collection oldskool trance, rousing tech, uplifting, Balearic prog and cinematic down-tempo. Featuring collabs with Roger Shah, Antonia Lucas, Kate Louis Smith and Julie Thompson, 'For You' takes you in completely. With an open mind and fuel to keep the highlights coming for years and years, Signum will keep the trance fire going for a long time to go.

I have a problem that hinders me in several places in life where, when I believe that bad news is imminent, I take up sometimes outrageous levels of inconvenience and anti-productive behavior to avoid hearing the bad news. The reason for this is that bad news seems to impact me more negatively than other people -- I seem to have a harder time shaking it, and it seems to impact my productivity more drastically than I see in other people, once you control for how bad the news is.
How can I train myself to firstly not be so avoidant, and secondly, learn to bounce back from things better? Does anyone have experience with therapy in this area? If so, could it realistically lead to better outcomes?

The 10 Most Insane Medical Practices in History
Cracked.com's new book is now on sale. What follows is one of 22 classic articles that appear in the book, along with 18 new articles that you can't read anywhere else.Have you ever been left with the impression after a thorough poking, prodding and testicular cupping at the doctor's office that perhaps they don't always know what's best? The thought is usually pushed from your mind, after all these people had to go through years of school and thousands of dollars of their wealthy parents' money to get where they are! If you can't trust them about your health, who can you trust?
Here's the thing though, doctors have a long storied background of not knowing what the hell they're doing. History is filled with stories of hilarious medical ineptitude, and in all likeliness, today's medical practices will be similarly snorted at 100 years down the road. In other words, if you're looking to justify your medical phobia so you can rationalize not getting that ever-growing lump on your neck checked out, you're in the right place.
#10. Children's Soothing Syrups
In the 19th century, people were simply too busy churning butter, waxing their moustaches or changing in and out of 15 layers of undergarments every time they went to take a piss to be bothered with disobedient children. To aide the stressed 19th-century mother, a series of "soothing syrups," lozenges and powders were created, all which were carefully formulated to ensure they were safe for use by those most vulnerable members of the family. Oh, no, wait. Actually, they pumped each bottle full of as many narcotics as it could hold.
For instance, each ounce of Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup contained 65 mg of pure morphine.
Based on our experiences teething and experimenting with pure morphine, that seems like a lot. Finally in 1910 the New York Times decided the whole narcotic-babysitter concept was probably bad in the long run, and ran an article pointing out that these soothing syrups contained, "...morphin sulphate, chloroform, morphine hydrochloride, codeine, heroin, powdered opium, cannabis indica," and sometimes several of them in combination.
You can't say the soothing syrups weren't effective, as long as you didn't mind your toddler being strung out on the midnight oil or, you know, dead. That's right, the terrible 2s weren't just a cutesy euphemism back then. Kids were not only at their brattiest but also often died, in many cases after their parents tried to cure the aforementioned brattiness with narcotic concoctions that would give Lindsay Lohan a nose bleed.
#9. The Curative Powers of Mercury
Mercury is pretty neat stuff. The shiny silvery liquid has fascinated humans for millennia (there's evidence people used it as early as 1500 BC) and will undoubtedly continue to fascinate far into the future when shape-shifting Robert Patrick clones overtake the planet. How could something so awesome not be good for you?
That was the thinking for centuries, when Mercury was used to treat pretty much anything and everything. Scraped your knee? Just rub a little mercury on it. Having some problems with regularity? Forget fiber, time to get some mercury up in there! If you lived more than 100 years ago, you simply weren't considered healthy if you weren't leaking silver from at least one orifice.
Mercury, as we now know, is toxic as hell. Symptoms of mercury poisoning include chest pains, heart and lung problems, coughing, tremors, violent muscle spasms, psychotic reactions, delirium, hallucinations, suicidal tendencies, restless spleen syndrome, testicular twisting and anal implosion. OK, we just made the last few up, but they barely looked out of place on that horror show list of symptoms did they?
It's a testament to just how cool a substance Mercury is that people kept trying to cure shit with it for 1,000 years after everybody who ingested it dropped dead. "Yes my Lord, I'm afraid another member of your court has perished. The autopsy showed it was Silver Liver Syndrome. Not even the gallons of wicked-awesome Mercury we fed him could bring him back to health."
There was a silver lining, though, as it helped to fight the spread of STDs. Mercury was used as a cure for syphilis and to its credit, the "cure" usually resulted in one less person with syphilis in the world. It's generally believed Mozart was poisoned by mercury-based syphilis cures, which contradicts the film Amadeus in which he was killed by writing too much music somehow.
#8. Calm Your Cough with Heroin
In the late 19th century people apparently took cough suppression seriously. We're talking "I'm-going-to-take-me- some-heroin-to-calm-this-cough" level serious, here. We know Victorians were sticklers for social etiquette and wheezing your head off was probably considered frightfully rude, but we can't imagine tying off and shooting some horse in the middle of a dinner party would go over terribly well, either.
Well you probably don't need us to tell you how addictive and destructive a drug heroin really is, but just in case ... Heroin? Might want to avoid that stuff. On the upside, it actually does suppress coughs, so if you do decide to become a junkie at least you'll save on buying Halls.
Heroin, by the way, was originally developed by Bayer. You know, those friendly folks behind harmless old aspirin.
Oh, and while we're taking on the man, we should also mention that Bayer used to be called IG Farben, a pharmaceutical and chemical conglomerate that allegedly sponsored experiments by Nazi torturers. How is this not at the center of every single Tylenol ad campaign: the fast acting pain reliever that has never sponsored Nazi torture camps.
#7. Electrical Impotence Cures
Men have been desperately searching for solutions to their malfunctioning members since Grok the caveman clubbed a cavewoman, drug her to his cave only to drag her back out again a half hour later with an embarrassed look on his face and muttering excuses about how tired he is. In the late 19th century, the wonders of electricity became to be known to the common person. Surely this marvelous new technology could be used to heat things up in the boudoir, right?
Electrified beds, elaborate cock shocking electric belts and other strange devices were advertised as being able to return "male power" and prowess by making your penis rise to electrified attention like Frankenstein's 6-inch-tall monster.
Photo courtesy of The Museum of Quackery.
What's fascinating is that you can find ads for more than one brand of electric dick-shock belt. That seems to indicate that the dick-shock belt industry somehow survived the negative word of mouth from the first dick-shock belt.
By "word of mouth," we mean the incoherent screams of the first customer which could presumably be heard in the next town.
#6. Lobotomies
Imagine if you will. You're sitting on your psychiatrist's couch, pouring your tortured heart out about how depressed you are. He listens, jotting notes on a piece of paper and nodding intently. "I think I have the solution to your depression," he says as he produces a 10-inch-long ice pick. "I'm going to jam this into your eye socket, then put it into your brain using this mallet over here. Then, I'll wiggle it around so that it shreds part of your brain. Then you won't be depressed any more. Just lie still."
Congratulations hypothetical version of yourself living in the 1940s, you've just been lobotomized! Lobotomies were a popular fad for the first half of the 20th century and were floated as a "cure" for pretty much any mental issue you can name, from conditions as serious as schizophrenia to something as mild as depression or anxiety.
The inventor of the lobotomy was given a Nobel Prize for it in 1949. Doctors claimed the "ice-pick-to-the- freaking-eye" method of lobotomy would be as quick and easy as a trip to the dentist. By 1960, parents were getting them for their moody teenage children.
This practice didn't hang around as long as some on our list, but still some 70,000 people were lobotomized before somebody figured out that driving a spike into the brain probably was not the answer to all of life's problems.

Suppose you hitch a ride in an empty unlocked box car that is a part of a freight train, for example in the continental US. Do railroad companies actually care about that? Do they have people looking for you? If they catch you, what can they do to you?
Well, let's look at whether it's possible first, to be Blind Baggage in a Box.
You'll want to enter one of the cars that's empty, obviously, otherwise you run into other problems (being accused of tampering or theft). This means you'll want to do so out of sight.
You could do this along the tracks, if you know the train stops at a signal, or in the changing yard - both tricky, and the latter probably trespassing - given you're not allowed off passenger platforms by law.
Metafilter has a great page on this, but repeats time and again - if you get caught, you're in trouble. Not "we'll kick you off the train" trouble, but we're talking arrests.
Possible charges include:
It also amuses me that this society exists...
Another thing to remember, from anecdotal experience. Two friends and myself were on an overnight train from Bucharest, Romania to Istanbul, Turkey. The train was fairly full, and we wandered through looking for more space. We found three empty boxcars at the back. We have NO problem with lack of comfort, but we thought space could be pretty good. It then turned out we'd been allocated two seats each somehow (they seemed to actually have a backpacker class) so gave up on that idea and enjoyed our seats.
Mid-way through the night we stopped in Bulgaria to change engines. We got off, and then realised what could have gone horribly wrong - the boxcars were no longer attached, and had long since gone somewhere else...
This has a more detailed description of the possible trouble you could get into: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freighthopping
This one has some hobo / railroad stories from the author's time on the trains - also has warnings why it's a bad idea: http://www.northbankfred.com/austin.html

Box Score | Game Notes
SAN ANTONIO (January 25, 2013) – Forward Jon Rheault tallied the game-winning goal with 41 seconds remaining in overtime to give the Rampage a 2-1 win over the Texas Stars on Friday night in front of 9,389 fans at AT&T Center.
The win was San Antonio's first against the Stars this season in six tries. The Rampage have now won eight of their last 10 home games, outscoring opponents 30-20 in that span. The victory came against the division and conference leading Stars, who had won nine of their last 11 games entering the contest.
The two teams combined for a total of 54 penalty minutes on 20 penalties, but the Rampage were able to hold the league's best road power play to 0-for-5 on the night. Entering the game, Texas had recorded a power-play goal in 13 of their last 15 games. However, it was San Antonio that converted with the man-advantage, as Rheault's game winner came while on a 4-on-3 power play in overtime.
Rampage netminder Jacob Markstrom made 35 saves on 36 shots and hasn't allowed more than two goals in seven of his last eight games. In his last three starts, Markstrom has stopped 115 of the last 120 shots he has faced.
Three rookies combined for the Rampage's first goal of the night at 1:01 of the first period. Defenseman Alex Petrovic broke the puck out of the zone and found Jared Gomes streaking through the neutral zone. Gomes collected the pass and dished it off to Jonathan Hazen, who took the puck down the right wing and fired a shot that beat Stars netminder Richard Bachman shortside.
The goal marked Hazen's second of the season and first since Nov. 30, while the assist marked Petrovic's third point in the last three games (one goal, two assists).
The Rampage were outshot, 12-8, in the opening frame but held a 1-0 lead going into the first intermission. When leading after the first period of action, San Antonio is now 10-2-0-2 on the season.
Texas tallied the only goal of the middle frame when defenseman Tyler Sloan walked in on Markstrom and beat the Rampage netminder high at 17:38.
San Antonio opened the third period with great jump and Petrovic made a great pinch while on the power play and rang a shot off the post three minutes into the frame.
Midway through the period, Markstrom made several saves while the Stars were on the power play to keep the game tied at 1-1. The Rampage were outshot, 14-8, in the final frame but Markstrom kept the door shut to force overtime.
Texas took a penalty at 3:07 of the overtime session and Rheault netted his team-leading 15th goal of the season from the high slot at 4:19 to secure the victory for the Rampage.
The Rampage and Stars will wrap up the two game home-and-home series tomorrow (Saturday) night at Cedar Park Center at 7:00 p.m. The Silver and Black will return to the AT&T Center on Friday, Feb. 1 for their third annual Pink in the Rink night to support breast health awareness. The Silver and Black will square off against the Rockford Ice Hogs on Pink in the Rink night at 7:30 p.m. on a KZEP Dollar Drink Night.
Individual, and season, tickets start at $10 and can be purchased at the AT&T Center Southeast Box Office, by calling a Rampage representative at 210-444-5554 or online at sarampage.com.

The 6 Worst Parts of Being Chinese (Not In The Stereotypes)
#3. Engrish Immunity
Engrish is one of the precious joys available to the human soul in this harsh world. What heart would not be brightened by this classic Japanese road rule (dating from 1921):
"When a passenger of the foot hove in sight tootle the horn trumpet
to him melodiously at first. If he still obstacles your passage tootle with vigor
and express by word of mouth the warning, `Hi! Hi!'"
However, prolonged exposure (thanks to immigrant parents and family friends) tends to build immunity, to the point where someone has to point out to me, "Did your mom just tell you to wear a vase when you leave the house?" and I don't see anything wrong with it as I put on my sleeveless outerwear.
I assume this is the opposite of "weak sauce." I don't really keep up with the kids and their Internet slang.
I wish I could recapture that delight that my non-Chinese friends have when they point out that a menu begins with "Appertizers" (about 50 percent of them do in my experience), but years of hearing my mom talk about things like buying an "evening gun" to wear to a wedding, being reminded to "defrost" my teeth after I brush and reading countless menus offering "green peepers," "fred rice," and "midnight snake" (snack), it just all blends together.
Here's an example of what I found on one trip to the Chinese mall (you'll notice Chinese malls are also where you get Japanese goods, it's a long story):
That's not all, but you can OD on this if you're not used to it, so I'll stop there.
#2. Chinese Bubbles
In California in particular, there are pretty big swaths of Chinese-dom where a Chinese person can spend their entire life without having contact with any of the lesser races. There are Chinese strip malls anchored by Chinese supermarkets, with Chinese restaurants, delis, bookstores, Charles Schwabs, insurance companies, banks and after-school tutoring programs (because seven hours is for lazy Americans). All the Vietnamese and Japanese restaurants in these areas are also Chinese, because who's gonna tell.
Like American strip malls, but tackier.
(As an aside, I don't think there are any official stats on this, but I'm estimating about 80 percent of Japanese sushi restaurants in the U.S. are run by Chinese. And about 70 percent of Americans don't care, I know, but imagine walking into Luigi's Italian Restaurant and finding the whole staff speaking in Scottish accents. It's hilarious, but also slightly unnerving.)
"Och, laddie! Welcome tae Luigi's!"
These aren't just downtown Chinatowns ("Where tourists can see Chinese people!") but large suburban areas as well. Entire small cities in the LA area have been taken over by Chinese, like Monterey Park and parts of the San Gabriel Valley, all in accordance with Phase 1 of the master pla- I mean, due to natural immigration patterns.
Phase 2.
I didn't even hang out much with non-Asians through school, due to living in a highly-rated school district where many Chinese parents were determined to get their kids into by hook or by crook, going to drastic means to establish fake addresses or even buy dummy houses in the district for their kids.
Being sheltered leads you to have some funny ideas about things when you get out in the real world, as you well know if you grew up in a hippie commune or an Amish village--or if you've watched fish-out-of-water comedies, like the ones Brendan Fraser often makes.
Take your pick.
So despite speaking perfect English since age three and acing the verbal portion of the SAT, I would get confused about simple expressions (like "fish out of water") as badly as a hilariously innocent robot (or exchange student) in a family comedy. I also got laughed at for pronouncing things like they look ("Plymouth" = "Ply Mouth"). Worst of all, due to our family never dining at any other Western restaurant, I thought Denny's was good.
#1. Keqi
There's that Q again. Keqi (kuh chi) refers to a sort of system of being polite. But it's less about being polite to people because you don't want to hurt their feelings and more about being polite so you don't look bad.
Keqi overload can lead to ridiculous situations where you end up going to a restaurant nobody wanted to go to because nobody wanted to look selfish by going to the restaurant they wanted if nobody else wanted it. So you go to a restaurant everyone hates to satisfy everyone. Sure, you don't have to be Chinese to experience this, but this kind of thing is actually the goal of keqi as opposed to some kind of accidental resentment-causing situation. You go away thinking, Mission accomplished! instead of, Isn't there an episode of Seinfeld about this kind of bullshit?
"So none of us ever liked this diner?"
The other great thing is that it's an unwritten code, which means you get to learn by trial and error. So this one time, after having dinner at a family friend's house, that family's mom hands me a red envelope with money in it as I am leaving (red envelopes with money in them are the traditional Chinese gift/card combo for birthdays, holidays, graduations, thinking-of-yous and bribing officials). I think, Awesome, money! and thank her very much. My mom is watching but doesn't say anything. Back home, she knocks me down with a roundhouse, puts her boot on the back of my neck and executes me with a bullet to the back of the head. I might be exaggerating a little, things always seem bigger in childhood memories.
It was my fault for letting her get the drop on me.
Anyway, the point is, I learned to never take presents from friends and family, even though they can be pretty damn sneaky. When arguing over gifts, the nicest, mild-mannered old ladies suddenly turn into debate team pros. When I went back to Taiwan for a month's work, I saw a lot of my family there, and even though they were awesome, generous people, I was in constant terror of them because 1) they kept trying to give me gifts, which I was not allowed to take under any circumstances, and 2) I had some gifts to give them from my mom that I was not allowed to return home with on pain of death. After hours of negotiations I finally managed to dump the gifts on them and escape with only minor trinkets in return (and no money).
If Jesus had been a good Chinese kid, he would have slapped that shit back in their faces.
They really didn't seem like they would mind if I took the gifts, though, so I felt like it was all very silly until I talked to another friend that had recently gone to Taiwan. She had been in the same situation, and after being begged like 10 times to take the gifts by smiling relatives, she finally did. When she got home, her mom said her relatives had called and complained about how greedy she was.
Man, I dodged a bullet there.

How did receiving a Tippie MBA prepare you for your career?
The Tippie MBA program helped me learn how to balance multiple demands at one time and still perform at a high level. Networking events and company trips allowed me to grow my knowledge base of many different industries as well as my social networking skills. I also had the opportunity to work on several consulting projects, allowing me to grow my knowledge and experience base, allowing me to secure both an internship and full-time position.
What type of impact did the program have on you both socially and academically? What was it like being a part of a small program?
Small class sizes allowed you to get to know your professors very well and allowed for more one-on-one office time. If you sought out professors and willingly wanted to learn, they were more than willing to spend the time to develop you. The small class size also allowed me to get to know my academy lead much better and use that relationship for coaching and mentoring. Small class sizes do allow for you to know your class much more intimately and learn from each other much more quickly.
How did the consulting opportunities (BSC) prepare you for future success? Did you feel they were instrumental to your development?
Consulting projects allowed me to try out new skills learned in classes, specifically data analysis skills on a few of my projects. Applying these skills helped me cement what was learned as well as learn how to implement key skills in real business problem-solving environments. I also was able to enhance my presentation skills through consulting opportunities, as we were oftentimes presenting to the highest level executives at many large companies.
What was the environment like both on and off campus, in and out of the classroom?
The environment within Tippie was collaborative, with students interested in learning and working together to better their skill sets. The staff is very supportive and looking out for students' best interests, particularly in helping them use the MBA as a next step to their future career goals. Off campus, students oftentimes spent quality time together enjoying all Iowa City has to offer. The many groups and clubs within the Tippie MBA program also helped schedule fun and interactive activities to entertain outside of the classroom. As a woman, I particularly enjoyed the time spent with the ladies of the program, encouraging each other in our class work and career hunting.
What were you seeking when you started an MBA, and do you feel that your Tippie MBA helped you achieve it?
I was looking to advance my knowledge base and wanting to obtain a master's degree before starting a family, etc. I was grateful that I was able to go to school full time, grow my personal and business skills, and gain valuable experience straight out of undergrad.
How did your participation in extra activities enhance your experience or prepare you for success?
I personally was involved in leadership positions in both student organizations within Tippie as well as within the grad school programs throughout the university. The extra activities allowed me to meet others and become more involved with niche groups outside of classroom interactions only. They also allowed me to practice key leadership skills and learn key lessons from small successes and failures.
What do you feel sets Tippie apart and above other similar MBA programs? In short, what makes Tippie special?
Tippie allows you to find a community to learn and grow in, all with your future goals in mind. It stretches you but also supports you to achieve your personal and professional development skills and allows you to tailor your learning through experiences, both within and outside of the classroom walls.

Installing a Chevrolet C10 Interior - An Inside Job: Part One - TechWritten by on March 11, 2011 Installing A '73-'87 C10 Interior From Head To Toe
When it comes to upholstery, the first thing that runs into my mind is 7th grade home economics. The needle and thread at my fingertips, the teacher breathing down my neck, and the only thing on my mind are the McDonald's double cheeseburgers I will be dining on in 47 minutes! Long story short, let's just say that I focused my studies elsewhere. To this day, the thought of sewing to me is about as entertaining as trying to put lipstick on a bear. For that reason, I've never even began to think about upholstering any of my rides. Well, I did throw some color coordinating blankets over some buckets seats one time if that counts! But real upholstery, fu-get-da-bout-it.
If one was to look through a '73-'87 C10 LMC Truck catalog they would notice that they cater to the DIY weekend warrior. Ranging from suspension, trim, body panels and much more, the array of products runs deep and rampant. In fact, LMC even dabbles in a DIY taboo, upholstery. Between those pages is everything needed to do an entire interior in the cab of '73-'87 trucks. From the headliner to the flooring and door to door, LMC truck has the catalog numbers to cover every square inch of the cab. They even carry upholstery for the seat. Whoa, pump the brakes! Yes, the previous sentence read upholstery, however, there is absolutely no sewing, stitching, gluing, cutting, or anything else one might find on that old jr. high home economics test. Instead, the upholstery is simple seat covers that install with hog rings, and hog rings only. All in all, the entire upholstery for the GM trucks is something any weekend warrior can handle with no previous upholstery knowledge or skill.
Instead of hiring some sort of focus group to decide colors and styles, LMC went straight to the source, GM. All of the upholstery products offered are direct replacement products molded, designed and created to look just like OEM products. The appearance is just how GM intended, and the fitment and installation is more of the same. LMC products are also designed to install just like OEM products.
For those looking to add some style to their interior, LMC has a solution as well. Along with direct replacement products, they also offer bolt-in aftermarket products that add some zing. For instance, LMC offers billet trim found along the dash, door panels and sill plates. By installing the new trim package, the interior retains that vintage GM vibe, yet takes on a modern twist that adds more vibrancy and life to the persona of the cab.
The next few pages will demonstrate that upholstery and interior work can be another project in the garage, which means no more shopping around for the right price and the right look at an interior shop. Instead, one can pick up a catalog, have parts delivered to the door, and the wrenching can begin. A week later, a truck emerges from the garage with a whole new attitude.
Being that an entire interior is going to be installed, it's going to take more than a few pages; therefore, this interior install will be broken down into two parts. Working from the ground up, part one will begin with the flooring. First, sound and heat barriers will be laid down, and then they will be covered with carpet. Next up, the seat will be recovered with a black vinyl and grey velour seat cover. Lastly, new door panels with billet trim will find their way into the mix. In next month's install we'll cover installing a new dash pad with all the trimmings, a billet steering wheel, and a new headliner with accessories. So take a look and watch how simple, easy, and quick it is to transfer the look of that cab into something that won't make you wanna tint your windows!

To keep inside temperatures to a minimum, a heat shield is installed. The heat shield may need to be trimmed around the edges with a razor blade to fit inside the cab, and then adhesive is sprayed to the floor before installation.The LMC carpet is designed to follow the contours of the floorboard, simply install the carpet with the floors geography.Using a razor blade, cut out quarter-sized holes in the carpet for the seat and seatbelt mounting bosses. For the rear seat mounts and seat belt mounts, the carpet is designed with a recession in it, which makes locating the areas that need to be cut a cinch. Other areas are determined by placing the parts against the carpet.Securing the carpet and adding some flare are threshold plates. Again, cut the holes in the carpet and simply screw the plates in. The doorsill plates mount by drilling four holes and then inserting the provided screws.For the most part, the panels use the same mounts in the sheetmetal behind the stock kick panels. However, a few new holes will need to be drilled. Using a 1/8-inch bit, drill the remaining holes, and then secure the kick panels with the provided screws.When recovering the seat you want the LMC Truck seat cover to be loose and pliable. Lay the seat cover out in the sun for at least 30 minutes before the recovering begins. The heat will warm up the vinyl and velour making stretching and pulling much easier.
The rear of the LMC Truck seat cover is lined with a plastic C-channel. Pull the C-channel over the flange of the seat frame.Slide the hog rings into the slots in the pliers, and then squeeze the hog rings through the material. Begin by inserting the first hog ring through the dead middle slot of the frame. Work towards one edge while remembering to pull the wrinkles out before securing. Pay attention to the piping running along the upper rail of the cushion, it should be straight.The LMC Truck cover for the upper cushion is slightly different; start by pulling the cover over the cushion like a pillow case.Next, center the piping on the upper cushion with the piping on the lower cushion by resting the upper cushion against the lower.The upper seat cover attaches by simply mating the two sides of the cover together with a hog ring. Again, work from the center out.Seat-hinge mounting holes need to be cut like the carpet. Using a razor blade, cut out nickel-sized holes for the hinge mount bosses and reinstall the upper cushion.In the end, the seat should look like this. A few days after installation has been completed, the packaging wrinkles will fade away. Next, reinstall the seat tracks to the frame and bolt in the seat.The first step to assembling the LMC Truck door panels is to insert the billet trim into the upper pocket. Be sure the short ball-milled lines in the trim are facing the rear of the door panel. Once inserted, drill the 1/8-inch holes needed and secure the trim using the outer holes with the screws provided.
The door panels are universal for all window and lock combinations. This truck is equipped with power windows; therefore, the inner measurements of the window switch is transferred to the panel, and then 1/4-inch holes are drilled just inside the corners of the measurements. Next, a cut-off wheel (a small hacksaw blade would work as well) is used to cut from the top of each hole to its corresponding hole. Continue this until the square hole is cut out. Duplicate this process for door lock switches. In cases where manual windows are being used, use a hole saw to cut out the necessary area.To install the door panel insert the two provided anchors on the backside, then slide the top lip over the inner window opening and push the door panel in place. From there secure the panel with the provided screws.Door straps insert by placing the billet strap covers over the ends of the straps, and then Allen screws secure the strap to the door.The last step is to install the lower carpeted door panel. Simply align the panel in place, and then drill 1/8-inch holes through the panel and into the door. A hole at each corner, and then one in the middle of the upper and lower rail of the panel will be efficient. Once the holes are drilled, secure the panel by using the provided screws.
