The 5 Creepiest Ways to Immortalize Yourself
#3. Be Buried in Your Furniture
Nobody likes to think about dying, but it's important to be prepared when the time comes. And you can't get much more prepared than buying a casket that functions as both a piece of furniture and a constant reminder of your fragile mortality. That's the morbid logic behind Casket Furniture, a company that takes practicality to horrifying extremes and creative names to disappointing lows.
Via Casketfurniture.com
You'll need a casket sooner or later, and you need a new bookcase now. Why buy two things?
Their website informs us that their mission is to "reduce the burden of high priced funerals with unique alternatives" and to help the eventually-to-be-deceased "create with dignity a personal and peaceful experience." Then they try to sell us a combination casket/pool table for $12,000.
Via Casketfurniture.com
Of course the felt is black. Because this isn't just a novelty at all.
We can just imagine the eulogy: "And so we lay Steve to rest in the pool table he and his family cherished so much. As his loved ones try to fill the hole in their hearts (and rec room), they can take comfort in the happy memories of countless hours of billiards and that one totally sweet trick shot Steve could always nail (even though adding angles to the sides of a pool table changes the physics entirely). His eight ball may be sunk, but his cue will shine on forever in all of us."
Via Casketfurniture.com
"Looking for a new coffee table? May we recommend 'The Lenin'?"
So whether you're looking for a coffee table, an entertainment center or a bed, Casket Furniture can guarantee you a lifetime of weird looks from house guests and an eternity of therapy bills for your children. In fact, why get only one casket? You could redecorate your whole home and plan for the deaths for your entire family at the same time!

"Kids, I'm afraid I've got bad news. It's time to clean out the entertainment center."
#2. Become a Vinyl Record
If you're planning to have yourself cremated, the question of how to dispose of your ashes can be a tricky one. Maybe you're torn between scattering them at sea during an awe-inspiring sunset or placing them in an urn that your family will forever reflect on to cherish past memories. Or how about having them pressed into a limited-edition run of 30 face-meltingly righteous vinyl records that are sure to rock the eternal tits off of anyone who somehow still owns a record player in 2012?
Well, thanks to Jason Leach, founder of U.K.-based company And Vinyly, avid music lovers finally have the ability to do just that. Leach and Co. will press your ashes into vinyl records containing 24 minutes of your favorite music, a spoken recording, or complete silence, so that the listener can hear the terrifying pops and crackles created by the process of bonding your freaking cremated remains to an LP.
Via Andyvinyly.com
Now that's the artwork of someone with whom we'd trust our mortal remains.
The basic package costs approximately $4,500 and contains 30 records with the standard "Rest in Vinyl" artwork with your name, date of birth, and date of death on the cover and labels. But like any successful business, And Vinyly is all about the add-ons, which range anywhere from 250 to 10,000 pounds (or around 400 to 15,500 Junior Bacon Cheeseburgers, in American units). For 5,000 big ones, you can have portrait cover art commissioned by James Hague, who will add your ashes to the paint.
If you're actively planning your death, the company gives you the option of a one-hour sitting with Hague as the basis for the portrait. Otherwise, sending in the worst photo imaginable will apparently suffice.
Via Andvinyly.com
"What's vinyl, Precious?"
For those who can't manage to muster up 24 minutes worth of dialogue, Leach's record label will gladly compose a piece of original music for around $800 per track. Though if you really hate both money and originality, for the same price you can choose one from their catalog of already-written tracks.
Via Daftwerk.com
Assuming you have the ability to browse while having a seizure, that is.
Perhaps the granddaddy of all the add-ons offered by And Vinyly is the oh-so-cleverly-named FUNeral: The company will organize your funeral, where they promise to crack wise, embarrass someone and, of course, play your dead-body record. Because we can't imagine any scenario in which a British entrepreneur/DJ hosting a funeral, embarrassing a grieving family and making tasteless death puns about a complete stranger wouldn't work out just swimmingly.
#1. Be Eaten by Mushrooms
Green funerals are all the rage these days, since they're cheaper and friendlier to the environment. And there's no funeral greener than those planned by the Infinity Burial Project -- long story short, mushrooms feast on your rotting corpse.
The idea is that when you die, your remains are put in a Mushroom Death Suit. It sounds like something Bowser would trick Mario into wearing, but it's actually a bodysuit full of mushroom spores and a mixture of minerals and liquids designed to aid decomposition.
Via Infinityburialproject.com
It works by science.
Once you're buried or, ideally, left out in an open space (forest, compost pile, neighbor's backyard, etc.), the spores will begin to consume your tender, tasty flesh. Before you know it (because you're dead), you'll have metamorphosed into a patch of mushrooms, at which point you'll presumably be eaten by some stoner hoping to trip just, like, all the balls.
The project is the brainchild of artist and inventor Jae Rhim Lee, who is also developing a unique strain of mushroom dubbed the Infinity Mushroom, which will be trained to excel at decomposing bodies. She's doing this by feeding the fungi her own body tissue and excretions, which is a polite way to say she's pooping on them.
Via Infinityburialproject.com
"That's right, now who wants a mushroom Swiss burger?"
The goal of her project is to help people come to terms with death in a personal, natural way. But will it immortalize you? Well, not only is it a memorable way to go out, but just like Simba's dad, you'll also be directly contributing to the great circle of life. Plus the mushrooms absorb toxins in the soil, helping to cleanse the environment. And it's all thanks to your body, which is now part of the very Earth itself. It's kind of beautiful, actually.
Via Infinityburialproject.com
Also, it comes in handy if you're into BDSM.
Of course, you could always get a friend to whip up some death-shroom poppers and secretly serve them to people you hate, then start screaming "CANNIBALS! CANNIBALS!" at them, which is beautiful in a totally different way.

I am using WordPress and I would like to develop more services for my website. I am thinking of creating new tables inside WordPress database. Will this approach work? I don't want WordPress to delete my tables while updating etc.
These services will be on separate pages, they will not be WordPress plugins. I just want to use the WordPress database to store my tables.

Unable to view the last few rows of a grid
Hello folks,
This is my first post on this site. I have been hooked to ExtJS for the past few months. While everything works like a charm, I just realized a strange issue while implementing grid. When a grid has a horizontal scroll bar, the last row simply does not display. At first I thought I might not be fetching the data properly. But that is not the case. The data which is in json format has say 81 results, but displays only 80 results. When I inspect element using Firebug, I can view the 81st row, but for some reason its hidden behind the scroll bar. Further if I try adding dockedItems to the grid panel, the view further reduces to 79. Kindly let me know if I am doing any thing wrong here
PHP Code:
var createGrid = function(columndata, product_id) {
grid = Ext.create('Ext.grid.Panel', {
id: 'product-form',
cls: 'product-grid',
margin: '10 10 0 10',
store: store,
columns: [
{xtype: 'rownumberer' /*, height:70 Would reduce another 3 rows*/},
stripeRows: true,
/*Would reduce another 1 row
dockedItems: [{
xtype: 'toolbar',
cls: 'customTab gridHead',
items: [{
text: 'New Product',
margin: '2 0 2 5',
handler: function(){
renderTo: 'productDiv'
grid.reconfigure(null, grid.initialConfig.columns);
PHP Code:
var createStore = function(fielddata, values) {
store = Ext.create('Ext.data.ArrayStore', {
fields: fielddata,
data: values
PHP Code:
url: '/Products/view',
success: function(response){
var data = Ext.decode(response.responseText);
createStore(data.fielddata, data.data);
createGrid(data.header, data.product_id);

Extjs Version 4.0.7
Firefox 17.0
I have been able to find out what went wrong. Grid.reconfigure causes this problem. I was using reconfigure because my columns were not being displayed in the correct order. For example, the rownumberer would appear as the 5th column. Further the horizontal scrollbars would not appear in grids. A little more study revealed that one should not assign same id to multiple grids, even if the grids are on different pages. That is what was wrong at my end. Extjs stores the grid columns in cookies based on grid id. Now I have different ids for all my grids in the application.
However, I am not sure why Grid.reconfigure causes the problem which I reported. Also I would like to know if assigning different id to grids in one application the only way to work, or is there a work around?

I've noticed many questions on here from new programmers that can be solved using libraries. When a library is suggested, often times they respond "I don't want to use X library" Is it the learning curve? or ? Just curious!
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
closed as primarily opinion-based by Eitan T, jadarnel27, Mario Sannum, sashkello, BartoszKP Oct 9 '13 at 21:57
Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
I consider myself a mid-level programmer, mostly self-taught, almost exclusively working on my own. I've started to use libraries, but fairly recently.
A major barrier to this was a lack of understanding of different design patterns - or even of the concept. I would determine an approach to solving the problem my own way, starting coding along the way. If I did look at a library, I would often think "Hey, that looks handy, but it won't fit my design."
It took a fair bit of reading and experience trying to apply new ideas to realize two things:
Maybe I'm still a beginner, I sometimes still avoid using certain libraries. Some libraries introduces too many abstractions, forcing you to put in more effort to get around it or forcing you to do things in a certain way and I think that's bad. When I'm doing Javascript I'm used to not relying on any libraries. I do, however, copy and paste bits and pieces of code from them and construct my own "mini" commonly-used functions. One of my argument is because some libraries introduces too much "bulk" making web pages load slower. However when doing C/C++ I tend to not afraid of using libraries. But still, when having a choice between a leaner, smaller library to a huge complex library that does almost the same thing, I would choose the former.
It's not always easy to compromise your managers to go ahead with the new framework. It requires lot of testing and have to study how this should fit in to your needs.
See my case, I am basically a c# programmer and started learning javascript for my work. Some time ago here in stack I have asked a question about the javascript puplisher/subscriber pattern. Most guys responded telling me it's already been implemented in frameworks like JQuery and prototype and you can easily reuse them.
I'm not entirely a newbie programmer, but a lot of times I like to implement something myself first, so I understand at least one way of how it works. Then when I have to use it for client work I would go ahead and use a library's implementation of whatever needs to be done.
I'm probably close enough to a new programmer to be able to comment, and personally at least, I have to say I don't like using libraries because I'd rather get the experience doing it myself for now. I'm not doing anything to a schedule, so the time's not a problem. I'll use libraries when I know I understand an area completely, and can't get anything out of using someone else's code.
Well, as perhaps the most 'newbie' person to respond, I can answer what my hesitation is...I'm trying to learn the very basics of programming, and so I feel like even though I "can" use a library, I feel like I need to still have a better understanding before I can even dive into those.
I'm not sure if that makes sense, but imagine that a library is...well...like a physical library. It is full of information and anything I can want to learn is easy to find...right?
But if you don't yet know how to read-or more accurately-comprehend the sentences you are reading, then a library is useless.
I'm still learning how to read. :-D
Some newbies feel that if they use libraries they'd be missing on some kind of fun. They have this IWIIOMO (I-want-to-implement-it-on-my-own) syndrome.
I'd say they find them sort of intimidating. And if they're new to a language diving into more libraries may seem like bitting off more than they can chew. Not to mention more steps involved in getting the environment to work with the library. D:
And from my education experience, (assuming most of these newbies are students) they really don't get much exposure to them.
I sure didn't (while in the classroom). :/
A few potential reasons (as a newbie):
Believe it or not, when I was doing college I'd made my own libraries in C++. Yea that is right. I'd made this myself. It had include many different types that DOS C++ did not support or it was supported by some third party Header files.
Why I did?
The same question was asked by my teacher and I'd to tell him that look I want to know the basic, I want to learn the basic, I want to build my ground. If I use someone else code I will not be able to understand the thing going on.. the cycle the love the geeky. I cannot be geeky when I like to type my key board faster or If I don't want to sit for 12 hrs our mores.
He was quite impressed and I was impressed too. I know things by doing it. That was the beginning of when I started writing of my own.
What I do now?
Well libraries are good. We must used it. However, one must not compare and try to use from the school age. They are good for business but probably not good for individual!
How would you define that if you don't know the basic of HTML and you can manipulate Html tags without some editor?
So I suppose Library should be used for learners, and I will count junior program, less than 1-2 years to re face their through libraries and see the magic.

I experience some stange behaviour on multi-core node of our cluster that I presume is linked to openmpi.
When running for a long time, and several pseudo-nodes of a single multicore node are concerned, one process freezes in a uninterrutible mode (D status) and the others seem to wait for a long time (S status).
Concurrent processes over the the other pseudo-nodes are also frozen in D mode.
When forcing the sleeping processes to sleep (kill -STOP), normal activity of other processes is recovered.
When interrupting blocked process at wakeup, it seems to be blocked in poll_dispatch method, and I guess that comment about multithread must be concerned.
Do you know more about this behaviour ?

I currently have the above equipment. and the 5D is fitted with a really right stuff L plate, I also have a gitzo tripod and markins ball head with quick release plate. I pretty much keep the L plate on the camera at all times.
I would like to get a pano set up, I understand the basics, but I want something I can use with my current lenses. My ballhead has a bubble level on the quick release plate. I guess i can level that and then place the pano set up on top. So I was thinking the Nodal Ninja Mk 2 but was wondering what I would need at the base to attach to the ball head and also if there is a way to attach a quick release to the upper arm so I can leave the L plate on the camera.
Probably would be using the 50, 85 or the 24-105 in this set up. Unlikely to use the wide 17-40 I think.
Would this set up be appropriate and what else should I get to attach to my current equipment. I can take the L plate off if too hard, but definitely need an option to attach to the ballhead.

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) -- The Kentucky Department of Insurance is advising members of a Christians-only health insurance plan that has been ordered to cease operations in the state, to get different policies immediately.
That move follows Franklin County Circuit Judge Thomas Wingate's ruling earlier this month, that Medi-Share, a Florida-based cost-sharing ministry, must cease operations in Kentucky, because it doesn't meet the state's insurance code.
Medi-Share closely resembles secular insurance, but only allows participation by people who pledge to live Christian lives that include no smoking, drinking, using drugs, or engaging in sex outside of marriage. The judge found Medi-Share doesn't measure up to Kentucky.
Department of Insurance spokeswoman Ronda Sloan said her agency is working to help Medi-Share members find new medical coverage.

VISTA Business Edition does install fine on a Sun Java W1100z Workstation.
By jim on Oct 26, 2007
I have tried the 32 bits version.
The only driver which is not available from the installation DVDROM is the Realtek AUDIO AC97 driver.
See http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/win/134635 from where you can download it.
At the begining before all the Microsoft Updates were installed I had to complain about some performance issues with some "mouse hangs".
In my setup I have also a NVIDIA QUADRO FX 1100 video card which is perfectly installed by the OS installer (WHQL driver!). I have tried to use the official driver installer from NVIDIA website but it does end with error message saying that it did not find any hardware compatible with such driver (???)...
Anyway it does work fine.

- "Harry heard the cart smash into pieces against the passage wall, heard Hermione shriek something, and felt himself glide back toward the ground as though weightless, landing painlessly on the rocky passage floor."
- —Description[src]
The Cushioning Charm (incantation unknown) creates an unseen softening effect on target surfaces. It is primarily used in broomstick manufacturing to make the brooms more comfortable for riders.
This charm was invented by Elliot Smethwyck in 1820.[1]
During their break-in of Gringotts Wizarding Bank, Hermione Granger used this charm to protect Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley, Griphook, herself, and an Imperiused Bogrod when the Mine Cart in which they were riding derailed after passing through the Thief's Downfall.[2]
Known practitioners
Behind the scenes
Given its usage in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, Aresto Momentum may be the Cushioning Charm mentioned in the novels. However, this is as of yet unconfirmed.

> page fault
page fault
Go4Expert Member
I want to know ,if RAM was empty ,is the first request of cpu be page fault or not?
many thanks
I can only really answer this with a circular argument: if by "first request" you mean "first request of something that's in the swap file", then yes, a page fault will be generated. If it requests something that isn't in the swap file then you won't get a page fault.
A page fault occurs when a page the OS wants to load has been moved out to swap, and this is not dependent on memory contents. RAM can be full, empty or anywhere in between; if the data wanted is in swap, then you will get a page fault.
Emptying RAM won't necessarily move stuff from the swap file back into RAM; it will normally be left there until it's needed.
Go4Expert Member
thank you very much ,I have a bit confused regarding swap file
i will be more clear.
if I have 4 page memory ,and it was empty at first. there are references from cpu :
3, 2, 1, 5, 3, 6, 2, 1, 7, 4, 6, 2, 4
can I consider 3,2,1,5 the first four references are pages fault or not? this is my question specifically
No. Let's say you want to run a few programs at the same time, and again you've got 4 pages.
Start program A that uses two pages; memory contains A1 A2 [blank] [blank]
Start program B that uses 1; memory contains A1 A2 B [blank]
Start program C that uses 2; memory contains A1 A2 B C1 and it wants to load C2.
The computer is out of memory, but it has some swap file.
The oldest page gets swapped out; that's A1. So now memory is [blank] A2 B C1.
C2 can be loaded, so we then get C2 A2 B C1.
We haven't had any page faults yet. Now we'll create the first page fault.
Suppose we now want to activate program A again and specifically we want to use A1. A1 isn't in memory but it is in the swap file. THIS is a page fault.
So using the "oldest gets swapped out" algorithm again, that's A2, so A2 goes out to swap and memory is C2 [blank] B C1.
There's now somewhere to put A1 so memory now contains C2 A1 B C1.
So the program is running through A and gets to the point where it needs A2. A2 is not in memory but it is in the swap file, so we now get our second page fault.
The oldest is B so this gets swapped out -> C2 A1 [blank] C1.
And A2 gets swapped in -> C2 A1 A2 C1.
And now you also see the critical importance of the virtual memory manager and the need to remap addresses. Initially A1 and A2 were loaded into pages 1 and 2. But now they are in pages 2 and 3.
So now over to your example, where 1-7 are blocks of data stored on the hard disk and memory and swap start out empty.
Sequence is 3, 2, 1, 5, 3, 6, 2, 1, 7, 4, 6, 2, 4, and we have 4 pages.
3, 2, 1, 5 - no problem, this all gets loaded into memory. Page faults (PF): 0.
3 - no problem; 3 is in memory. PF:0
6 - OK, so we now swap out the least recently used (LRU). 3 was used in the previous step so the oldest is now 2; this gets swapped out and 6 loaded into memory. Still no PF's, and memory now contains 3 6 1 5.
2 - Page fault, because 2 is not in memory but it is in the swapfile. LRU is 1, swap it out, swap 2 back in, memory contains 3 6 2 5. PF:1 - our first page fault.
1 - PF:2. LRU is 5; swap that out, swap 1 in; memory contains 3 6 1 5.
7 - no PF because 7 is not in swap. However we need to shift something out to swap. LRU is 5, 5 out 7 in, memory=3 6 1 7.
4 - no PF. LRU is 3, swap 3 out and load 4 from disk; memory=4 6 1 7
6 - in memory, so the only thing the OS needs to do here is to update the "last used" time for 6 to keep the LRU algorithm going.
2 - PF(3rd); LRU is 1; 1 out, 2 back from swap, memory=4 6 2 7
4 - no PF, just update block 4's last used time.
So with 4 pages you get 3 page faults.
Now suppose there are 5 pages. Same sequence: 3, 2, 1, 5, 3, 6, 2, 1, 7, 4, 6, 2, 4
3,2,1,5,3,6 - no problem; memory is 3 2 1 5 6; LRU list would read 2 1 5 3 6
2: in memory so the LRU list is updated to 1 5 3 6 2 (most recent at the end).
1: in memory, no PF, LRU list 5 3 6 2 1
7: move LRU(5) to swap, load in 7, memory is 3 2 1 7 6; LRU list is 3 6 2 1 7
4: move 3 to swap, load in 4, memory is 4 2 1 7 6; LRU list is 6 2 1 7 4
6: in memory so no PF, just update the LRU list to 2 1 7 4 6
2: in memory so no PF, just update the LRU list to 1 7 4 6 2
4: in memory so no PF, just update the LRU list to 1 7 6 2 4
So there are no page faults at all here because at no point did the CPU request a page that was in swap.
3 pages
3, 2, 1: no problem, memory 321, LRU 321.
5: memory 521; LRU 215; swap contains 3
3: PF; mem 531; LRU 153; swap contains 2
6: swap out 1; mem 536; LRU 536; swap contains 21
2: PF; swap out 5, mem 236; LRU 362; swap 15
1: PF; swap out 3, mem 216; LRU 621; swap 35
7: swap out 6, mem 217; LRU 217; swap 356
4: swap out 2, mem 417; LRU 174; swap 3562
6: PF: swap out 1, mem 467; LRU 746; swap 3521
2: PF: swap out 7, mem 462; LRU 462; swap 3517
4: in memory so just update LRU to 624.
NB: I may have made a mistake in the above; it's nearly midnight, so if you spot something odd then point it out and I'll double check, fix it if it's wrong or explain it if it is actually correct.
Go4Expert Member
thank you very much for all explanations.
I would like to say , there is no mistake.
but I want to say something please.
in fact , I understood well that the first pages are requested by cpu isn't page fault . that is good and what Morris mano agree with you in that in his book (computer system architecture)
But he stated that when a cpu requests for ex. page 6 as in earlier ex. ,in this case there is a page fault ,and he didn't state if this page in swap file or not.
This Mano book seems to be more trouble than it's worth. Since the choice of course books is yours to make, can I recommend you shred this one and get something that actually explains things clearly without leaving you confused?
As I understand it a page fault is when the CPU tries to access something that was loaded into RAM but that has since been moved out to the page file.
So 6 is not a page fault because it hasn't been loaded into memory yet.
...a penny drops...
...that is, UNLESS 1-7 are pages that have been loaded into memory by previous operations, and that memory has been cleared (for example by 8 being loaded into memory and taking up all four pages, thus swapping all 1-7 out to swapfile). In that case then not only will 6 be a page fault but the preceding requests for 3, 2, 1, 5 (not 3 because it's already in RAM) will also be page faults.
So the answer to your opening question, now I know the full context, is Yes,
and in effect the complete sequence you're asking about is 1-7 iin whatever order, then the hypothetical 8a 8b 8c 8d, unload 8* (so RAM clear at this point), *THEN* 3, 2, 1, 5, 3, 6, 2, 1, 7, 4, 6, 2, 4.
Alternatively if you want to stick with Mano then get a few more books on the same subject and read them as well. A single author's take on a complex technical subject is not enough anyway and in effect when people go to university that's what they want. If all they're getting is a potted form of the Mano book then they can stay at home and read it themselves, and save themselves a whole load of trouble and expense.

Twenty days until Christmas. Less than three weeks. The weather hasn't helped us get in the swing, the mood or the spirit of the season.
Twenty days until Christmas. Less than three weeks. The weather hasn't helped us get in the swing, the mood or the spirit of the season. What we miss most is the complaining about the snow, cold and ice. The lakes are barely covered with ice. The weather is not cooperating. In what was a normal year we could boast of a foot of snow and maybe at least one good blizzard. Living, working playing in the snow gives a badge of honor, a common enemy a reason to band together against the elements. What fun can it be to be a snowbird when there is little difference in the weather? It's like skipping school and finding out that the rest of class went to the zoo and had a picnic. You could always count on a white Christmas, sure we have had some without snow, but only a few. The last few years we have had little snow and this year looks like there will be less. Snow in the winter involves our time moving it, playing in it, planning around it and talking about it. It is part of our economy and part of our life. Let it snow.
My Christmas shopping has not started yet and I have no plan so far. Next week will be soon enough to fill my list. I enjoy the person who has planned for months, working hard to come up with perfect gift. You don't need to go to Jarred's when you have Probst Jewelry to fill your dreams.
* * *
Have a joyful Christmas season.

Have a good week.

Fell is under attack.
The Necromancer Sect has managed to manufacture the Plague of Undeath, turning all living souls into horrific mutations of what they once were. Kindly wizards become dark sorcerers. The mercenary Armegedhon bears of the Northlands have been turned into feral, snapping creatures, ready to tear apart any human.
And humans are turned into Corrupted, creatures with grey skin and white eyes, who move faster and are stronger than a normal human. They serve only the Necromancers, and they have laid siege to the Empire of Arc.
Heroes step up to save the land. They cut great swathes across the Corrupted and the defiled beasts, but so far, most of them have been turned by the Plague and now serve the Necromancers, their former powers being turned to evil.
Yet it does not stop more heroes from trying. They pledge their allegiance to Arc, and usually work in large groups for safety reasons. You are part of one of these groups of heroes. You will destroy the Necromancers, tear their temples down and save Fell from the ravages of the Plague.
Or else you will be ripped apart by the Corrupted.
Just like a video game, Heroes of Fell features classes of characters. These classes determine what sort of abilities you have. Each primary class-Warrior, Mage or Rogue-is broken down into three sub-classes. You choose one of the sub-classes to mold your character into, or if you want, you can be a Balanced class, a Jack-of-all-Trades but master of none.
Each sub-class has its own Skills. Your Skills depend on which sub-class you're in, and can be modified or made more powerful as you journey through Fell.
They only stop killing to wipe the blood of a thousand warriors off their swords.
Paladin:Paladins derive their power from the Great God Ankh, as well as his lieutenants, the God of Justice, Sezu, and the God of Light, Arias. His strength lies in healing his teammates and casting spells to improve their morale and temporarily boost their skill in combat.
Blademaster:A Blademaster does not wield a sword. He is a sword, himself. He is in love with his blade. It is his passion and his fire and his light. His strikes are like a hot dirk carving through butter, and his strength lies in survival. He can dance with you forever, and your weapon will never touch him. He just fights on and on and on, slowly wearing you down while not suffering a scratch himself.
Berserker:A Berserker is a madman. He charges through the enemy, slashing and hacking. If a Corrupted fights him, he kills it. If a defiled beast fights him, he kills it. If a demon fights him, he kills it. If the gods himself fight him, he kills them, too. His crazy and perilous attacks often leave him vulnerable, but although his defense his weak, his pure attacking frenzy possesses the msot raw power out of any sub-class.
What use are swords and daggers when the fury of the gods themselves are against you?
Elemental:Elementals have the most raw power out of all the Mages. They harness the power of Fire, Wind, Water and Earth to slay their enemies. Occassionally, skilled Elementals have even been known to draw upon Sky, the power source of the White Gods, and Chaos, the power source of the Black Gods.
Blood Mage:A Blood Mage pays a terrible price for his power. He has to physically draw blood from himself in order to cast spells. But what power! A Blood Mage with a gash on his chest can turn boulders to dust. A Blood Mage with a slash on his cheek can bring down a rain of death. Dying Blood Mages have been known to swallow whole battlefields in their agony.
Summoner:The motto of the Summoner is-"Why do something when you can get something else to do it for you?" For their abilities lie in summoning creatures from other worlds. Dragons, Chimeras, Fairies, Phoenixes, Golems, Dire Wolves, everything from a swarm of poisonous bees to invisible, ever-cold specters are theirs to summon and command.
You can't hit what you can't see, but what you can't see can hit you.
Assassin:The assassin's powress lies in poison and long-range killing. Rather than list all his attributes, let me just tell you the story of an Oberjarl who betrayed Thane Harlequin. Thane Harlequin sent a single assassin after the Oberjarl's entire army. The next day, the Oberjarl woke up to find that his entire army was dead from a poison in the water supply. As he was busy peering at the infected water, a dart hit him from behind and he fell asleep. Forever.
Shadowbender:A Shadowbender's deadliness lies in his versatility. A Berserker may be picked off from afar by arrows. An Elemental may be stopped if his spells are interrupted. A Blademaster is nothing without his blade. But if you shoot arrows at a Shadowbender, darkness swells up and blocks them. Disrupt his concentration? He can easily kill you without using his most powerful spells. And, of course, there is no blade to take away.
Cloaked:The Cloaked are a strange breed, for their grey cowls are always over their shoulders, even when sleeping. They have the ability to teleport anywhere they have seen at will, and their primary weapon is a thick grey mist that blinds and chokes their enemies. They can even choose who the mist affects, so their allies will be breathing perfectly normally and can see perfectly fine.
To complete Heroes of Fell, you must go into the Temple of the Hopeless in the last Necromancer Sanctuary, where you will find the High Priest. Once you kill the High Priest, the game ends.
You will start in Castellume, Arc's capital city. There, you will speak to General Shingle, who will give you orders. Once you complete his quest, you will immediately be given another one, and so on until you kill the Hgh Priest.
But you don't have to start a quest the moment it's given. You also have the opportunity to wander around and ask for subquests. These quests do not advance the plotline, but after every subquests, the best RPGers in that subquest will receive powerful items. This is important, because getting good gear is the only way to make your character more powerful.
Mediocre subquesters will be given a healing potion or some minor one-use artifact, while inactive subquesters will not be given anything at all. Note that you cannot go on a subquest by yourself while the others complete the main quest. Everyone goes or no one goes.
As mentioned before, equipment is the only way to make your characters stronger. You can carry as much equipment as you want, as limiting the stuff you can have is, in my opinion, an artificial way to make the game harder.
All main weapons other than the main weapons you start with have a Weapon Skill, a power that can only be used once per quest.
However, at any one time, you can only wear:
2 rings
1 amulet or necklace
1 main weapon(staves for mages, swords for warriors, knives for rogues)
1 off-hand weapon(cataclysts for mages, shields for warriors, knives for rogues)
1 set of armor
1 accessory(crowns, hats, braclets, monocles, circlets etc.)
Gems can be socketed into weapons to lend them extra powers. Only one gem per weapon.

On 16th March five top London bartenders faced off in a fantastic cask-aged gin cocktail competition, which may also have been the best named event of all time!
Maverick Drinks had armed each bartender with a different gin that had been aged or rested in casks, all from their awesome portfolio. Following a preview tasting where this fascinating crossover category was discussed, it was time for the #ginsin main event held at Megaro Bar. The winner would be chosen by 7 'tasters' (they're the fun version of judges) and would subsequently win the opportunity to create their very own cask-aged gin, which will have their name and even their face on it if they really want. (The latter, it was said at the time, may actually depend on who wins...) There should also soon be a Gin, Sin & 5 Soaking Barrels Tasting Set from Drinks by the Dram we hear, so you'll be able to sample all of these eminently mixable aged gins for yourself...

Edit Profile
I completed my undergraduate training at the University of Texas at El Paso, majoring in Biology with a minor in Chemistry. I matriculated to the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston for medical school, and in 1988, also participated in a summer internhsip at the NIH working with the development of a rapid diagnostic skin test for people infected with Strongyloides stercoralis, before starting my clinical years. I completed my internship and residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at LBJ Hospital and the University of Texas Health Sciences Center in Houston. I finally left Texas and ventured to the northeast, where I did my fellowship in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility at New England Medical Center / Tufts Medical School. I stayed on staff at NEMC for 6 years before moving to Massachusetts General Hospital. Over my career, I have focused on the surgical aspect of infertility and reproduction. This includes endometriosis, fibroids, surgical repair of uterine anomalies and scar tissue, and repair of damaged fallopian tubes. I also direct a Chronic Pelvic Pain Clinic within the gynecology division and co-direct the Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery Program. I have a strong interest in fertility treatment outcomes and policies.

Haute Heels!
The Party
At its gorgeous jewel box of a boutique, Jimmy Choo debuted its 2014 cruise collection with a fabulous fete in support of Hawaii International Film Festival.
The Scene
To bring local flair to the soiree, the house of style turned to none other than Honolulu socialites at large Kristen Chan and Brynn Foster to host the evening. (Both are confessed Choo lovers.) The gracious hosts, along with store manager Betty Lieu, welcomed the bevy of guests, ranging from jet-setting shoppers to movers and shakers from local media, fashion and the arts—not to mention, one bow-tied petite pooch.
The Highlights
Bites from Kailua eatery Prima and prosecco cocktails fueled the highly spirited shopping, inspiring some to try on the brand's sparkling heels and shades. A few fashion-forward gents even got in on the fun, heading straight for the men's collection. But guests also got breaking news for the year ahead. Shoppers applauded with excitement when Rachelle Blume, head of stores, Western Region, announced that Jimmy Choo would be opening a second boutique in Waikīkī in the summer of 2014. –Photos by Travis Okimoto

Here's the scenario, part of a wargame/CTF type exercise. There is a vulnerable program running as a service on the remote host. I have access to a copy of the binary, which has a stack overflow from an unchecked scanf.
I am able to trigger the overflow and execute code, but I'm having trouble figuring out what to use for the return address. If I run the binary on my test machine, I can successfully get a shell only if I know roughly the address of my shellcode on the stack. At the time of the overflow, none of the registers contain the location of the shellcode. My thought was that I should be able to brute force the return address, but that hasn't been working on either my test instance (ASLR disabled) or the remote service (ASLR status unknown).

Meg Hutchinson performs in The Current studio
One would think that folksingers in Boston are lining up to get gigs and trying to out-do each other in a fiercely competitive scene. But Meg Hutchinson says it's more of a family atmosphere. She's one of Red House Records' newest singer-songwriters and says the Boston scene, where she lives now, is supportive and thriving.
Her latest record is called "Come Up Full" on Red House. She stopped into the Morning Show studios to play a few songs from that album for Dale and Jim Ed.
Songs performed: "I'd Like to Know" and "Come Up Full"

Speed Jumping
These rhymes can be used by individual jumpers and by children jumping in groups. Twirl the rope very fast after saying the word pepper and count to see how many fast jumps the jumper can make before he trips.
Mabel, Mabel, set the table
Just as fast as you are able.
Don't forget the salt, sugar,
Vinegar, mustard, red hot pepper!
One, two, three, four, five...
Mother sent me to the store.
This is what she sent me for:
Coffee, tea, and red hot pepper!
One, two, three, four, five...
