FUS speaker says prayers are answered
May 12, 2013
STEUBENVILLE — Jim Nicholson, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, U.S....
I can't say I'm pleased with these comments, but not for the reasons many would assume. First of all, the comment on oil and gas has nothing to do with the article and doesn't belong here. Secondly, the comments by "beagle", while definitely his opinion, don't belong here either, in my opinion. This is about prayer and perseverance and the message sent to the graduates about where to place their trust when times get rough. You take away from their achievements when you blather on about politicians you don't agree with. Take it to the op-ed page.

I agree with the comments and ask for help protecting life and health from the gas drilling exploitation.The water and air contamination are deadly and growing children and the unborn are most vulnerable.A carcinogen such as acrylonitrile is deadly and is furnished by Chinese companies to the frac industry.When confronted these companies deny and lie...the crime wave that hit WV counties continues along with the contamination.Mother Teresa taught us about prayer in action and we need to act to stop the greed and corruption.

Keyes, Gingrich and Santorum ALL received major awards and kudos from the college despite their hateful attitudes of intolerance.....Oh yeah...ole Newt got his award while cheating on his wife who was dying of cancer....didn't stop the college from kissing the teaparty arses.

More of the same from a long line of honored right wing, homophobe tea part nuts that the Franciscans adore. Nicholson is a right wing fanatic as are Alan Keyes, Newt Gingrich, Rich Santorum......this school was formed by the original Bishop of Steubenville for its millworkers and their children. It was never intended to be a right wing mouthpiece for the Republican party and its extremists.....St Francis would roll over in his grave if he heard of the nuts this college honors and gives speaking platforms.

More Drug Shortages in Fungal Meningitis Aftermath
Nov. 2, 2012 -- Safety steps taken in the wake of the fungal meningitis outbreak have worsened drug shortages, raising questions about whether the U.S. must choose between the safety and the availability of crucial medicines.
Ameridose -- the sister firm of the NECC, the compounding pharmacy whose tainted products are at the heart of the outbreak -- has shut down, and at the FDA's urging recalled the more than 2,000 products it sold nationwide. The FDA yesterday admitted that these actions will worsen the ongoing shortage of six important drugs hospitals need to help critically ill patients.
Currently, 226 drugs are in short supply. Last year, 99% of U.S. hospitals reported drug shortages. And these are important drugs, says Joseph Hill, director of federal legislative affairs for the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists.
"In the last five years we have seen a significant spike in the number and severity of shortages," Hill says. "It is really alarming when you look at the classes of drugs involved: cancer drugs, heart drugs, pain drugs, and anesthetics. Imagine not being able to perform an emergency surgery."
Compounding pharmacies do not make most of the drugs that are in shortage. But they make an increasing number of them, says David Miller, RPh, CEO of the International Academy of Compounding Pharmacists (IACP).
"What we have seen is on a large scale, important drugs being in shortage -- and not for short periods, but in the months-to-years range," Miller says. "Compounding pharmacies help with that. Now, instead of filling short-term needs, compounding pharmacies are being looked to on a larger scale."
How many compounding pharmacies are doing this? The FDA does not know.
"We do not have this data," says FDA public information officer Sarah Clark-Lynn via email.
"It is important to note that compounded drugs can serve an important public health need if a patient has a particular medical need that cannot be met with an FDA-approved drug," Clark-Lynn says. "Compounded drugs that are prepared improperly pose potential health risks to the patients who take them. When such compounding occurs on a large scale, more patients are exposed to those risks."

The Carmi Public Library is in a holding pattern for the next few days until the newly designed catalog system, Polaris, goes live Tuesday, April 9. The new system has been in the planning stages for months. Although customers may check books in and out, current customers are unable to place holds on books. Once Polaris goes on-line, the system will be linked into a whole network of other libraries and will be one of the largest library systems in the nation, Illinois Heartland.
As a result of the switch, Library Director Stephanie Dennis noted the circulation has dipped down in the past few weeks. She noted some patrons have been inconvenienced, but the new cataloging system will be worth the wait. Dennis also re-emphasized the fact that once the new system is up and running, all customers will be required to show their library card when checking out books.
Illinois Heartland continues to feed updates into the Carmi Public Library. Also, Dennis and Connie Kisner attended an advanced circulation workshop in late March to be better prepared for the implementation of the new system.
Dennis noted the library spent more than $785 for books in March, but did hold off on ordering any new books the past few weeks until the new system is in place. Kisner and Kathleen Rister have applied for two grants, one through the state and the other through Libri Foundation, which could be worth up to $5,000. However, the staff will not get word on the Libri grant for a while. Both grants are for books for the children's area. The staff is preparing to weed out books from both the children's area as well as the young adult area. The grants will help replenish these departments.
In addition, the library applied for and was granted a Per Capita Grant through Secretary of State Jesse White's office. The library will receive $5,384.89 sometime during the 2013 calendar year.
The library is also working on final plans for National Library Week, which is April 14-19. The staff has events planned each day with a special event set for 6 p.m. Monday, April 15 for The Friends of the Library to recognize the "Friend of the Library" and the library staff will announce "Library Family of the Year." Tuesday will feature a broom making demonstration from Claudie Parson from 12 until 5 p.m. followed by a performance from the Carmi-White County Thespians from 3:30 until 4:30 p.m. Wednesday. Thursday will feature the first book discussion group at 6:30 p.m. The entire week will also include a book sale.
Dennis also mentioned to the staff that core standards are in place and the staff is staying on top of the requirements. They have already conducted a few programs, such as the Scholastic Book Fair, the Chocolate tasting event and Library Hour and other events are planned. The library is required to offer different programs for different age groups throughout the year, which Dennis says has been implemented.
Page 2 of 2 - Dennis gave an update on Friends of the Library, noting they met Monday, April 1. The group has agreed to donate money to the library toward the purchase of the three computers and a scanner that are required with the addition of the new Polaris system. The group is also looking at options to cut down on afternoon sun glare through the windows, especially in the main foyer. The Friends also recently purchased a table and chairs for the teen section in the library.
"We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful group as the Friends of the Library," said Library Board President Andy Acord. "We are thankful to have them and appreciate what they do for us."
In committee reports, Lloyd Stills reported on the financial picture for the library. He noted the dividends on the funds have risen slightly and the money market funds are available to use if needed. Stills also said the board is $700 under budget for the first quarter and suggested adding some money into the budget for April and May to help pay for some of the costs of children's books since that area will be weeded out soon.
Ralph Anselment had no updates for the house committee. The custodian has agreed to clean the carpets on the lower level and is working to find the extra time to accomplish the request.
Finally, a reception will be held for all volunteers on Wednesday, April 24 at the library.

Basic Rules for Financial Freedom: Make Wealth Happen
14 of 15
Control Spending Impulses
The surest way to defeat your wealth creation is to go out and spend everything you earn or receive (and a bit more just for good measure). This particular addiction is very strong in me. I blame it all on giving up smoking. I have nothing to do now with my hands, so fiddling with a credit card seems to satisfy some deeply buried addictive urge. But you have to resist if you are going to turn what little you have into a bigger something. Forget notions of new cars and holidays in the sun. You are going to turn into a bit of a Scrooge for a while, hanging on to what you've got to prepare for the future when you will have so much more. This means you have to control your urges.
Look, I'm going to let you into a secret. Prosperity is a race, a prize, a winning line. We all set out wanting to race toward it, claim it. Some can't be bothered to even make it to the starting line because they are so weighed down with unhelpful beliefs that floor them before they start. And a whole lot of people fall by the wayside from laziness early on. A whole lot more fail to make the grade because they get daunted by the hard work needed. Still more, at this point, where you are now, stumble because they give into temptation and spend, spend, spend like there is no tomorrow.
Well, there is a tomorrow, and it comes quickly enough. And that shiny new car now looks sad and rusty, the holiday is gone with only a few photos of people and places you can't even remember, and the new clothes are outgrown and unworn.
The simple truth is that the rich know how to control their spending urges--that's why they're rich. When they need to tighten their belts, they can do it.

This question already has an answer here:
- How to lose fat only in your thigh? 4 answers
I have been doing Insanity exercises for over a month now and couple with a strict, clean diet I have really seen improvements in my body. I have lost 7+ kgs of weight, my stomach has reduced and overall I feel fit. But the only thing which has not reduced is my double chin. They just seem to hang in there no matter how hard I workout!
Are there any exercises targeting double chin reduction?

I asked a question almost as soon as I get my account. I got a few decent answers, but I didn't get the information I wanted. The question has long since become buried by newer questions, and there's still no accepted answer. Unfortunately, because there are six answers, it probably looks to a casual observer like the question was answered and I just neglected to mark any answer as accepted.
So what's the protocol for me to try to get this question answered? I see several options:
Post the question a second time, possibly linking to the original, to get it back onto the new page. This is encouraged on sites like Reddit. However, it's probably not appropriate here, since we're encouraged to check for dupes and not submit a question that's already been asked by someone else, so this probably falls under that heading.
Wait for some kind of wiki-like talk page to be implemented, then post a plea on the talk page for input and hope that activity on the talk page bumps up the question.
Do nothing further on the Stack Overflow website. If I edit my post to say that I haven't accepted any of the current answers but are looking for more, then the question might get answered eventually by people browsing through old questions to find something they can answer.
Post the question on other sites, but link to my original question on Stack Overflow. People will either answer here, or they'll answer on the other site and I can post the accepted answer here myself. This might be considered spamming for Stack Overflow, so it might be better to do this without the link.
For more information, see the "What should I do if no one answers my question?" page in the Help Center.

our customer, NASATech, finished a big project last week. Some scenes have lots of grids, pipes, wires, all in different 3D space. They are very challenging to stitch if NPP is not set properly.
NASATech also gave us a great testimonial, after finishing the big project last week.
Of course, they were all shot with the Ultimate M1. I spent 4.5 hours from 10:30 am to 3:00 pm maintaining a steady pace. The totals were 3369 images that resulted 1123 HDR shots and from that I was able to put together 38 pans. They all stitched together without any problems. I couldn't have done those numbers or had the nearly perfect stitches without the ease and precision of the Ultimate M1. It's a beautiful piece of equipment!

Sencha Architect Design View goes blind when...
I added a Ext.tab.Panel to a root of 'Views' in (Project Inspector) to do some design over it, but when I change the property header to true (default appear to be false in the Config property area), when I change the value... the Design View just disappear and no matter that I select another view object, it can't show any of them.
To pass over this problem I have to close Sencha Architect and then start it once again.
Sorry if someone else have been reported this... and probably you consider this as repetitive, I'm new here so Im learning how to search here.
7 Dec 2012 10:31 AM #2
I can confirm that Ext 4.1.x has a header configuration in the docs and when setting it to true is throwing an error.
Ext 4.0.x does not expose a header configuration.
We'll investigate it. THanks for the report.Aaron Conran

Let me first start out by saying as you might have guessed, this is a homework problem. Therefore I am not looking for an answer to the question. I am looking for help in how to analyze it (My textbook is horrid).
I have a grid of 9 squares surrounded by a circle. I can use three colors to color each region with no region touching any other region with the same color (corners don't count). **`
I am asked to find the number of possible different colorings.
I drew a set of nodes with lines connecting neighboring regions, but I still have no idea how to figure out the number of combinations.
I also made a guess of three (which I know is wrong) since you can color the regions once with the three colors then map each color to a different one two times after the first coloring.
No blue is touching any other blue regions, no white is touching any other white regions, no red is touching any other red regions.

America—it's the home of the brave, and the most heroic among us were honored during Veterans First's food and wine fest at Fletcher Jones Motorcars in Newport. Dubbed Patriot's Promise, the first annual affair drew in culinarians and oenophiles like Jaclyn and Joel Perham, Georgina and Ron Troxell, and Glenn Verdult, and palatable indulgences awaited around every turn. Case in point: Restos such as Wild Strawberry Café and Nieuport 17 brought the eats, while Tatratea and Landy Family Vineyards poured glass after glass of cocktails and vino. And have no fear: Auto aficionados had some fun, too. They browsed the brand's models and listened to the newest in car audio systems from Bang & Olufsen. Further satisfaction for all attendees came from the groovy jazz entertainment, a live auction and the more than $17,000 raised for O.C.'s underserved veterans. Photography by Reza Allah-Bakhshi

Im designing a DIV container that will contain some rows of text. Every row can contain 0 to 35 chars.
I need to specify a fixed width for the div, but I cannot predict how "wide" the string can be.
An example of strings (all 35 chars):
- aeR1riPhah9chaicaegae7oobaiz8eiquoL
- iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
- da da da 35 chars text With CApital
As you notice, the glyph "i" is less wide than "L".
A possible solution could be to use a Monospaced font, but for some stylistic constraints I need to use Arial (or equivalent font).
The idea is to size the container considering a string that contains the largest glyphs, but I am not sure what is the largest glyph, especially if we consider all the UTF characters..
Any help, advice would be really appreciated!

I got the add-on for the Firefox OS simulator, and it works great! It even keeps functioning after Firefox is closed, so I can save processing power for other things.
I'd like to run it as a standalone application, so that I don't even have to open Firefox in the first place.
I've gone to the System Monitor, and it says that the process (I guessed which by CPU usage and filename) was started via
/email@example.com/resources/r2d2b2g/data/linux64/b2g/plugin-container 3386 true tab, so I tried running that in the Terminal (after I'd closed the simulator, of course,) but it gives this:
james@james-OptiPlex-GX620:~/.email@example.com/resources/r2d2b2g/data/linux64/b2g$ ./plugin-container 3386 true tab ./plugin-container: error while loading shared libraries: libxpcom.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory james@james-OptiPlex-GX620:~/.email@example.com/resources/r2d2b2g/data/linux64/b2g$
What should I do? Is what I'm attempting even possible? (It should be, since the simulator kept running even after Firefox itself was closed...)
NOTE: I've tried
chmod u+sx plugin-container, but that didn't help.

One of the favorite holidays of all
time, Halloween is a fun excuse to dress up in a costume of your choice,
play a few fun tricks and collect as many treats as you can. Children of
all ages enjoy trick-or-treating and those who are too old to be a pretend
ghost or superhero dress up anyway and entertain themselves giving out
candy to the younger crowd or hanging out with the older crowd at various
Halloween parties. Even if it's not October, we can always enjoy Halloween
coloring pages. Who would have thought that carved pumpkins, costumes,
scary music and candy could combine into such a fun evening.
Give us your feedback and comments so we can improve.

closed source
It might seem strange coming from the founder of OpenLogic, a company focused on helping others succeed with open source, but the fact is that closed source is better than open source in certain situations.
A bike share program that was supposed to be launched last summer in New York City has come to a halt due to software related issues. I can't help but think that if the software was open source, these problems would have been easily resolved, eliminating worrisome delays.

I wanted to make an walkie talkie app in android, i know there are a lot of apps like these but they use the Wi-fi or they are just web services. But if we want to like transmit voice/data on 2G/3G frequencies, is there an option in android ? or "is it even legal ?" considering it will be a short range transmission.
i know that 2G/3G are not device-device communication systems but if we can directly access the physical layer of 2G/3G(the transmission hardware) of the phone then we can transmit data through it.

I am doing usability test on a product which I think might have problems with it's search function. I want to test search function with users, but I don't want to restrict user information retrieval methods by adding straight up "use search function" task. But if I make just general information retrieval task, it might end up in a way that hardly anyone uses search. Is there way around this problem?
If you can't isolate the variables within one test, the only real solution is to split it into two tests.
This might be mitigated by doing the user information retrieval test first and seeing if any search feedback naturally falls out from that. If it does, great. Analyze the data and determine if you need more specific testing. If feedback doesn't come from the first test, then you definitely need to move on and conduct the search-specific test.
I might consider a pre-test survey to collect the participant's predisposition to using search. Something like:
Q. When trying to find information on a website, I commonly use the site's search:
The question above needs phrasing work, but the idea is to get a user gauge on wether or not they're predisposed to searching for content on a website. Then you will know how much you will need to direct them to the task.
Other option is to move towards testing the participant's ability to complete a task. You may want to restate your tasks to: 1) Locating the search function 2) Validating search results compared with participant expectations 3) Filters and advanced search options, etc.
This way the test skews away from "If a member would use the search".

5 Survival Stories (Almost) Too Miraculous to be Real
#2. The Boat That Surfed a Megatsunami
Gregory Balkin/Photos.com
While Australia holds a virtual monopoly on the most deadly everything on the planet, North America does surprisingly (terrifyingly) well in comparison if you add natural disasters to the mix. The meteor that killed the dinosaurs crashed into the Yucatan, and the U.S. is the proud home to four of the five deadliest giant wildfires in recorded history. And then there was that one megatsunami that was tall enough to lick the tip of the Empire State Building.
On July 9, 1958, a massive rock slide dropped some 30.6 million cubic meters of rock right into Alaska's Lituya Bay. The rocks hit the water with enough force to create a wave roughly 1,720 feet high, uprooting trees and destroying almost everything and everyone in its path ...
... except for a couple of guys who were just casually surfing on top of it.
Howard G. Ulrich and his 8-year-old son, Sonny, had picked that fateful night for a nice father-son boat trip. They were awakened at around 10:15 p.m. by earthquake-like sounds and tremors, soon followed by a crash "like an atomic explosion." They were now staring at the business end of a rapidly approaching megatsunami. Ulrich, being a '50s kind of guy, eyed the all-consuming wall of water, threw his kid a life preserver, and said, "Son, start praying." Then he presumably poured himself a final glass of whiskey and looked around for a secretary to bang.
John Foxx/Photos.com
"Life preserver" was actually a '50s euphemism for "bottle of scotch."
Sonny must have been accidentally praying to Poseidon, because the tsunami completely failed to crush them. Instead, it was all "Guys, you want a ride?" The wave snapped their anchor chain and swept the boat aboard. The Ulrichs found themselves riding atop the titanic wave, over fields and forests, at speeds another survivor estimated were close to 600 mph. They rode the wall of water (which raged back and forth in the bay) for 25 or 30 minutes, until things calmed down.
Although they described the aftermath of the megatsunami as "something like the end of the world," they seem to be very nonchalant about their own miraculous survival. Here they are talking about their experience:
Seriously, what the fuck? These guys rode the biggest tsunami in recorded history, and they discuss it with coffee mugs in their hands like it ain't no thing.
#1. The Men Who Stood Under an Atomic Bomb
Allow us to introduce the six most daring men who have ever lived: Colonel Sidney Bruce, Lieutenant Colonel Frank P. Ball, Majors Norman "Bodie" Bodinger and John Hughes, Corporal Don Lutrel, and cameraman George Yoshitake. They didn't fight wars (at least, at the time), wrestle alligators, or brave inhuman weather conditions to earn the Cracked Medal of Misguided Badassery. Instead, they voluntarily tackled an atomic bomb.
If you didn't watch that video, it is a three-minute exercise in absurdity. It starts with five men nonchalantly standing on a patch of desert beside a mildly assholish sign that says "GROUND ZERO -- POPULATION 5." Suddenly, two planes fly over them and launch a nuclear missile that detonates directly above them. The men are startled by the force of the explosion, but otherwise observe it calmly and without fear. One of them wears sunglasses and chews gum throughout the process, eyeing the blazing death warrant above him with mild disinterest. An excited voice narrates the entire video, going apeshit over the explosion as if it were the decisive touchdown at the Super Bowl.
The recording is from July 19, 1957, when these five Air Force volunteers (and one photographer with the worst gig in history) stood directly under a 2-ton nuclear missile that detonated 18,500 feet (not 10,000 feet, as the video claims) above them. The aim of the stunt was to assure the American public that nuclear radiation wasn't much of a problem, and that air-to-air nukes probably were relatively harmless to people standing directly underneath them, maybe. These guys were not shielded from the blast in any way: When the cameraman found out the nature of his mission, all he had to protect himself was a baseball cap.
With a future so bright, he should have worn shades.
The whole "radiation is harmless" schtick was obviously a load of crap; the radiation from aerial nuclear testing has health implications to the people living in the area even today. Which is why these brave men had barely enough time to say "That was cool! Can we do that again?" before their faces melted off.
Just kidding! They were just fine. As far as we know, each of these guys lived a long, full life. In fact, two of them are still alive.
The fact that they all had cancer at some point of their lives is probably just a coincidence.

According to an online sources, it was on 1 Tevet.
I'd have to look in the Mefarshim to see if they say which date it was on.
The רמ"א reportedly says it was the 9th of טבת.
It is not the רמ"א on או"ח סימן תקפ, although it is ostensibly the event commemorated by the fast on the ninth of טבת. I have heard this by rumor only so far and will try to find a link inside.

I have a 3 year old blog and its got around 16 articles/tutorials about some programming problems and solutions. It's getting pretty much a lot of view lately so I decided to apply for a google adsense account. When I first applied via blogger, google replied with the following statement:
Page Type: In order to participate in Google AdSense, publishers' websites

- Your website must contain substantial, original content...
So, as I understood it, I decide to buy a domain and point my blogger blog to that new naked domain. and here is the newly bought domain where all the contents of my old blog resides. http://*.com/
I reapplied, hoping that this time, I will make the cut. But then I got this reply

I'm a bit disappointed. Maybe I did something wrong with DNS configuration or something. But you can clearly see that my site is fully functional. I heard that google sends robots to crawl on to the site etc. It's just sad because I invested on a domain name, and now I can't even find ways to earn from it. Any tips?

Good way to save a lot of money! ...Or if you wanted to put the ornaments on one day at a time until December :3
For anyone that's curious about the math that's 150 ornaments.
AKA 175 more shopping days until christmas!
Must...not...buy. Must...resist...deal....
I've got to ask: how did you happen across this?
2 notes: 1) This is an online only deal. 2) The multi-color tree is still listed at the regular price of $219. Don't think this is going to last long; get one quick if you want it.
@okham: :-) Home Depot has a one day special each day. I always check. Sometimes they're really good deals, like this one. Other times....meh. BTW: I measured my ceiling height to confirm it was 9 feet at the tallest part of the slant. It was. I resisted a LOT, but then gave in. I ordered one. :-/ May end up donating it, though.
Hmm, I have 8 foot ceilings. Do I cut a hole in the floor or the ceiling? Great deal @gmwhit. Merry Christmas!
Christmas in July, eh?
@barnabee: Looks like you could snip 6" off the top pretty easily, and 6" off the trunk not-so-easily. Unfortunately, you'd then have no room for a tree-topper and no room for presents underneath the tree. But hey, it's cheap!
thanks wow !!
Only a great deal if you have room for a 9 foot tree...not me.
I've got ten-foot ceilings, so this would be great. If it was silver. I want an aluminum tree with that rotating spotlight.
use coupon code RWBHD10 for an extra 10% off
Hmm, coupon code RWBHD10 (case-sensitive) seems to work on this item. $39 pre-lit tree FTW
Got all the way to checkout and mentioned this to DH. He firmly stated that he will NEVER have an artificial tree in his house. LOL! I will have to bookmark this and remind him about the missed opportunity next Christmas when he's firmly stating that he will NEVER AGAIN get a real tree and that we MUST get an artificial tree as soon as they go on sale for a reasonable price.
@belyndag: All things considered...I'd buy it NOW. I don't think you'll ever find this price again. Put it away until your DH comes to his senses.
No longer available online. Oh well ):
@atravis6: You're right. :-( Sorry, it IS no longer available. Hope you got it if you wanted it. This was a fantastic deal!
@gmwhit I looked on Home Depot's site - where do you find their daily deals at? I need another site that I have to obsessively check every single day :) seriously though. . .where do you find the daily deals site at? Thanks!
@spunkyjt: Hmmmm If I told you I'd have to kill you. JK! ;-) Try this. It changes about 4AM EST each day.
@gmwhit: That would assume that he ever WILL come to his senses! We've been married 31 years now and I'm still waiting, LOL! Ah, well, It will be more fun to just smile politely and point to the screenshot of the deal that I'm saving. No need to even haul out the "I told you so." The biggest advantage is that I can use this to get the REAL tree I want.
Ummm. Christmas!
My tree has shipped via UPS. Expected delivery 7-9. Great buy and fast shipping! Amazing to me!!
@belyndag: So understand you desire for a real tree. Did that for many, many years. And loved it! Nothing like the smell of pine.
@gmwhit: And it has to be the REAL smell of pine, not pine scented candles or pine scented air freshener. Ah, well. Enjoy your pre-lit tree and think of me battling DH over getting out to buy a real tree when Christmas rolls around. He always waits until the the last minute so we get to have a tree for about three or four days.
Bah. Humbug!

Let's start here: you were cooler than you think in college. Although movies often rest on the assumption that their viewers will suspend disbelief for a few hours and fall into their world, some films fare better at this than others. This is not to argue that movies should all be hyper-realistic — they're pieces of art, and there's real life for that. But there's something to be said for the hyper-ridiculous setting. Enter: the universities portrayed in the movies. And because no one wants to be bored with a list of bad flicks, we've found instead the most ridiculous. While college life may be a time of wild partying, barely making it, and coming of age, these nine movies feature the most unrealistic ("the worst!") cinematic portrayals of the subject. Sit back, relax, and thank your lucky stars that you didn't get your degree in one of these nine worlds.

Thanksgiving "Day After Detox"
If the statisticians are correct, most of us consumed 4,500 calories at Thanksgiving dinner and now we must all detox and heal our bodies from the food hangover. Forget about the excessive guilt- instead implement some small yet potent changes so that you can get your heavenly body back.
Here are Christine's "Day After" detoxing secrets:
1) Drink two cups of water before each meal. This helped test subjects lose five more pounds than those who didn't. (According to a recent study review presented at the American Chemical Society.) Water also helps move toxins out of the body.
2) Eat fresh fruits and vegetables instead of packaged refined carbs. A study from the journal Nutrition found that eating fresh produce lowered Body Mass Index and trimmed inches off of waistlines. Say hello to that left over plate of veggies that no one ate on Thanksgiving. Nosh on cucumbers, celery, carrots and bell peppers!
3) Do your Christmas shopping at stores that are on opposite ends of the mall. Combing the mall for two hours burns about 350 calories! The more you move the more fat and toxins leave your body.
4) Don't starve yourself to achieve recompense for yesterdays over eating. Use those turkey leftovers to make some healthful meals that will help cleanse your body.

Hi fellow readers of gnomer's blog.
Just a quick post to say hello.
Gnomer introduced me to his blog one night whilst playing together on our Friday night Kara run. Since then I've become an avid reader and occasional commenter.
Unlike gnomer, a researcher and theory crafter, I learn predominantly by doing. So I must apologize in advance. I won't be keeping up gnomer's regular posting rate and the posts I do do, won't be nearly as well grounded in the numbers behind the game.
On a prior realm on my first toon, I remember gnomer stating excitedly as we grouped to level that he has got the numbers behind grinding….remember those bad old days? (now the levelling is so fast i quest to level exclusively, if a mob is a quest drop or just in my way it has to go, other than that I let live and run free )….. Gnomer had a spreadhseet that calculated XP per hour depending on the relative level of a mob to you. For those interested the sweet spot was 2-3 levels below. Then he quickly added that it is a game and we should just go do whats fun Whilst I appreciated the research behind it, the comment that struck accord with me was his follow up comment 'but we could just go do whats fun'
So I will write the occasional post and I promise to try and keep it as relevant to you magi as I can.
I'm basically here to switch the lights on and off at odd intervals, clean out the mailbox, feed the fish and drink all his beer😛 while gnomer takes a well earned break.
I have a couple of blog posts in the pipline….
- WSG Twink lock strategy guides.
- Should mages pay for battle resses?
- Is the term waterboy fair?
You guys own this blog more than I do. So anything at all you want to hear about please feel free to let me know. If I don't have an answer I'm sure I can make one up.
I hope I can give you the occasional blog that is half as interesting as gnomer's

Speaking of Discernment
During this morning's homily at Santa Marta, Pope Francis prayed:
Lord give me the discernment to recognize the subtle conspiracies of worldliness that lead us to negotiate our values and our faith.
He then, apropos the reading from Maccabees, offered an interesting allusion:
with a reference to the 20th century novel, Lord of the World, that focuses on the spirit of worldliness that leads to apostasy, Pope Francis warned against the desire to "be like everyone else" and what he called an "adolescent progressivism". "What do you think?" – he said bitterly – "that today human sacrifices are not made? Many, many people make human sacrifices and there are laws that protect them".
Lord of the World was written by Robert Hiugh Benson, a convert to Catholicism and Catholic priest, who was the son of an Archbishop of Canterbury. Of the novel Joseph Pearce writes that it depicts "a world where philosophical relativism has triumphed over objectivity...a world where euthanasia is practiced widely and religion hardly practiced at all."
Benson wrote at the beginning of the twentieth century, and Francis clearly finds his dystopian novel a cautionary tale.

Well, I never thought I'd hear of Robert Hugh Benson again on this earth. Amazed that the Argentine pope has read him.
(His play, The Upper Room, was in my 12th grade Prose and Poetry of England, as an example of 20th century drama.)
I wonder if this recommendation by Pope Francis will lead to a revival of interest in Benson's work. He credited his vocation to an 1882 novel, John Inglesant, by J. H. Shorthouse.
(I wonder if the pope mentioned Benson because today is his birthday. Born Nov. 18, 1871. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Hugh_Benson )
I read Benson's Come Rack, Come Ruin in high school. Enjoyed it then.
I'd like to read his letters. A shame they were destroyed. From Wiki:
As a young man, Benson recalled, he had rejected the idea of marriage as "quite inconceivable".[2] Then, in 1904, soon after his ordination as a Roman Catholic priest, he formed a chaste but passionate friendship with Frederick Rolfe. For two years this relationship involved letters "not only weekly, but at times daily, and of an intimate character, exhaustingly charged with emotion".[3] All letters were subsequently destroyed, probably by Benson's brother.[4]
In Teihard de Chardin's "Hymn of the Universe" (at least in my French edition) there are "Trois Histoires Comme Benson;" and the note refers to the English author, R.H. Benson, whose "mystical tale" had made a lasting impression on Teilhard.
"He said worldliness is the root of evil and it can lead us to abandon our traditions and negotiate our loyalty to God who is always faithful. This – the Pope admonished – is called apostasy, which he said is a form of "adultery" which takes place when we negotiate the essence of our being: loyalty to the Lord." -- from the above linked report on the homily.
I wonder to whom exactly this warning is addressed. The Vatican report certainly suggests that the target is a secular worldliness, and so, in a broad sense, it is. But is secular society in fact the only exemplar of worldliness? Unfortunately the whole history of the church (and churches of all sorts) suggest that all to often they too have embraced the ways of the world, most particularly the grasping for wealth and power that have vitiated the Christian message over the centuries. Secularism, in this sense, is nothing new, and though there are many saints (Francis himself one of the most extraordinary, of course) who have sought to counter these tendencies, they have all too often been unable to prevail against the temptations of secular worldliness for ecclesiastical as well as more secular leaders.
Paying a bit more attention to Ignatius's very pertinent advice (in the next post) would be very helpful indeed. But unfortunately his advice runs counter to much that we sadly see in our all too human (and worldly) nature.
Dr. Clifford: Isn't it clear that the warning is addressed to Christians, and not least of all to ecclesiastics?
AsiaNews.it seems to have a fuller account of Pope Francis' remarks.
One must ask what Francis means when he says "..the worldly spirit exists even today, even today it takes us with this desire to be progressive and have one single thought."
Charles Ryder:
the original Italian
"Perché lo spirito della mondanità anche oggi c'è, anche oggi ci porta con questa voglia di essere progressisti sul pensiero unico."
would be better translated:
"... desire to be progressive by embracing the pensiero unico"
where "pensiero unico" is a common Italian and French expression used to indicate a conformist ideology that attempts to marginalize all other forms of thought (in this case, based on the rest of the homily, it appears Francis is referring to Western liberal progressivism making claim as a universal ideology). See:
Words that give pause for discernment:
«Voi pensate che oggi non si fanno sacrifici umani?», il Papa ha risposto:
«Se ne fanno tanti, tanti. E ci sono delle leggi che li proteggono».
"Do you think that today there are no human sacrifices? There are many, many.
And laws that protect [legitimize?] them."
"But is secular society in fact the only exemplar of worldliness? Unfortunately the whole history of the church (and churches of all sorts) suggest that all to often they too have embraced the ways of the world, most particularly the grasping for wealth and power that have vitiated the Christian message over the centuries.
In order to apply it to the leadership of the church we need to be specific. That is, is the 187 million renovation of St. Patrick's Cathedral necessary when people are working three jobs (some don't have any) to survive? Francis might start with selling off those "titular" churches and getting people like Cardinal Law a regular job.
We have to revisit the fourth century discussion when Paulinus of Nola and Jerome re-directed the gospel practice of selling all to the poor to the renovations of great basilicas, shrines and the giving to monasteries rather than the real poor.
Francis needs to redirect the giving to the poor where it belongs. Not to building edifices. But to real people. He is making a fine start by noting how human sacrifices (read slavery--fifteen million in India alone) are very much present today. Next he needs to show that hedge fund managers are not to be the honorees (divitees) in the church. Rather lazarus....
The better Benson to read is his younger brother, E.F. Benson. E.F Benson wrote the fabulous Lucia books.
Fr. Komonchak.
You're certainly right about it being addressed to Christians. And, I hope, to ecclesiastics as well as the rest of us. No doubt I'm guilty of reading the passage through lenses ground by the American episcopacy, which seems to prefer the place the blame on the rest of us, and seems unwilling to recognize that Christians have much to learn from world beyond the church doors.
Not that the questions are by any means easy. How do we distinguish between the kind of relativism that ultimately suggests there are no really important questions -- you have your ideas, I have mine, and who's to judge? -- and genuinely important questions for us as Christians? We as Catholics have historically not always been very good in recognizing the importance of those ideas that come to us from the outside, both Protestant and secular, though some of them eventually make their way in through those church doors (I'm thinking of ending slavery, for instance, economic justice, questions of race, political and intellectual liberty, and so on). And I'm thinking of us all too often being relativists ourselves, willing to ape the ways of the greater world outside us (the notion of a papal monarchy, for instance, which takes us back to ancient Rome, and more recently to the so-called "new monarchies" of Renaissance Europe, which brought us a kind of absolutism less known in the medieval world than it became a bit later).
And I think of the church's views of women today, and the call now for a new "theology of women" as they somehow don't fit into "normal" theology. An article in the most recent Tablet points out that the church has customarily pretty well restricted its views of women to maternal and service functions. But surely in that the church was no different from the rest of the world, and not just in the West (neither the Confucian nor the mainstream Buddhist views of women were particularly flattering, for example). Perhaps it's time for us to ask ourselves how much our official views of women have really been really theologically based? and how far they simply ape the easy "relativistic" common views of our societies, western and otherwise, secular and otherwise?
Pope Francis uses the term "human sacrifices" in the same address as "adolescent progressivism" and "desire to be progressive".
"He who has ears to hear, let him hear."
Charles, do you mean that Pope Francis is lamenting the fact that teenagers who desire to be progressive have casual sex and, if unprotected, may find themselves pregnant without being ready or mature enough to be parents and are led to having an abortion?
I have to admit that the pronouncements of our already beloved Pope Francis are sometimes obscure, if not baffling, not to mention sometimes downright contradictory. Sometimes his off-the-cuff statements seem to be a report of his stream-of-consciousness, one thought following quickly after another without always being weighed one against each other. His honesty is so winning we forgive him, but remain perplexed.
Maybe that's a good thing for the Church. If the Pope comes to realize that he seems to be defending some opposing views at times (and I'm sure his new communications director must realize that that's sometimes a problem), maybe he'll review his thinking on those subjects. For instance, his apparent criticism of "progressivism" conflicts with some of his other teachings, e.g., his teaching that the poor come first. That latter position is one more likely to be held by liberals/progressives than super-conservatives or libertarians. The whole subject needs to be rethought by the whole Church and put into some contemporary language that isn't so ambiguous.
Taking care of the poor is not only a liberal position. It is a conservative one also. The reason for this is it is the central teaching of Jesus. One just has to look at the annointing of Jesus. "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed,"
More accurately distinctions might be made as to conservative and liberal with reference to strictness of rubrics, of children. on marriage, sex before marriage, etc.
What makes Francis so effective is that he stresses this essential fact of the gospel. His efforts for peace etc.
as a foreigner I assure you that the US division in liberals/progressives vs. conservative/libertarian is completely.... foreign to people in other countries. In Latin countries the 'left' has traditionally been Marxist or post-Marxist and the 'right' Christian-democratic. Neither of them fits in the American scheme.
It is true that now many countries are being influenced by American culture and are adopting the US division in left-libertarians and right-libertarians, where in fact neither side really cares about the poor, except as potential voters to be manipulated with government hand-outs. That is exactly the progressivism Francis is concerned about.
Carlo --
Alasdair MacIntyre has shown that that the terms "liberal" and "conservative" have a common root in the Enlightenment sort of "liberalism" which emphasized individual rights and in particular property rights. Later the "liberal" Democrats came to champion rights (see the Civil Rights movement here which was led mainly by Democrats) while the "conservative" Republicans came to emphasize property rights, with some conservatives over-valuing all individual rights. We've never had a Communist party of any size here, but though it is called "leftist" it could as easily be boxed with the totalitarians forms which included the old monarchies, whose supporters came to be called "conservatives" in Europe.
In other words, the inadequacy of the terminology reflects the highly complex history of Western political values, and use of the terms has become very problematic in many instances -- e.g., Francis' complaint about "progressives". In the 18the century Enlightenment it was generally assumed that social progress was going to be inevitable as reason/science more and more guided the peoples, but that, of ocurse, proved wrong. This is probably the sort of "progressivism" that Francis was condemning, but I don't think the word has the same meaning any more, at least not in the U. S.
Daily homilies are not encyclicals that mount (or attempt to mount) a sustained argumentation, nor even interviews where the interlocutor could ask a question for clarification. That said, it strikes me that there is a notable consistency in the Pope's homilies.
From his first to the Cardinals: "without Christ and his cross at the Center, the Church is just a charitable NGO," to his sermon to the Jesuits on the Feast of St. Ignatius to put Christ at the Center, he is proclaiming the person of Christ, not some abstract appeal to "Gospel values," much less our favorite cause, as the identifying loyalty of the Christian.
Hence the above-referenced homily is set within the context of the apostasy depicted in the Book of Maccabees. The fullest summary in English is here.
Thus, Francis's oft-repeated warnings against the reduction of the faith to ideologies (whether of left or right), against causes or positions that preempt our primary loyalty to Christ and risk making us Christians "della pasticceria" as he said in Assisi.
But to ascertain whether we are disciples of our preferred cause or disciples of Christ requires the arduous labor of discernment – on a daily basis.
a) what you describe never applied to Argentine or Italy. And even in the US it changed radically at the end of the 1960 when the Left embraced a technocratic mindset and the sexual revolution. So much so that in this country the Democratic party has largely lost the working class (except for ethnic minorities) and has become the party of Hollywood and Wall Street.
b) In the context of his preaching, I personally I am sure that when the Pope spoke of progressivism the Pope had in mind what in this country for some strange reason are called "social issues" (although they are not "social" at all, since they mostly cather to the liberal bourgeoisie, not to the poor)
Fr. Imbelli --
Yes, Pope Francis does emphasize certain themes, and he's quite consistent about them. But some of us find that he says some very strange things at atimes, things that are inconsistent with some of the other teachings of the Church. For instance, La Stampa quotes Francis' talk about Confession at his General Audience today. If he is quoted accurately, some of it is clearly inconsistent with what I was taught about the necessity to go to Confession. He says we have a right to confess, not a duty.
All news - Vatican Insider - La Stampa
Thank you for your always sedulous research! I do not find the words you quote from "Vartican Insider" on the Vatican website. Here is what they give as the Pope's sentence:
I fedeli penitenti hanno il diritto, tutti i fedeli hanno il diritto di trovare nei sacerdoti dei servitori del perdono di Dio.
The faithful seeking the sacrament of penance have the right, all the faithful have the right to find in priests the servants of God's pardon.
In any case, even in the "Vatican Insider" version, the focus is on the obligation for the confessor to be a servant of Christ's mercy, and the pentitent's "right" to encounter such a priest, not on our "duty" to go to confession.
Fr. Imbelli --
Thanks for the Vatican version of the speech. You are no doubt right that what Pope Francis intended to emphasize , as always, was mercy. But that is not a problem.
The problem I'm bringing up is that the Pope seems to have denied a basic Church rule concerning confessing all serious sins. It is possible, of course, that I was taught the wrong thing -- the rule is that we don't have to confess them. Was I taught wrongly?
Another possibility is that the La Stampa reporter misquoted the Pope. La Stampa's English translation says: "Do faithful who go to confession have the duty? No, they have the right to find God's forgiveness in priests." The La Stampa Italian original quote reads: «I fedeli penitenti hanno il dovere? - ha chiesto il Papa - No, hanno il diritto di trovare nei sacerdoti dei servitori del perdono di Dio»."
It's possible, I suppose, that the La Stampa reporter misheard the "No" part about the duty to confess. But it is my understanding that La Stampa is a rich and respected newspaper that can afford competent reporters, plus La Stampa doesn't seem to have any sort of ax to grind with the Vatican. Given that fact that the Vatican just withdrew that whole interview of the Pope by the editor of LaRepublica, it looks as though it is more likely that the Vatican took out part of what the Pope actually said And I say that is very serious business -- it's as if they think they can erase history. In the old days the Curia buried things in its Archives. Now it seems to be trying to destroy facts. But in the immortal words of Jase Robertson "Once a thing is seen it can never be unseen".
even if one accepts that the "quote" given by La Stampa is correct (the Pope often departs from his prepared text and "ad libs" in an Italian that is fluent, but not always accurate), how you derive from it that he is quesioning the obligation for all (including himself!) to confess "all serious sins" is a puzzle.
Clearly, his point is the need for confessors to embody the mercy of Christ; and he says, according to the La Stampa version, that it is not the penitent's duty to find such a confessor, but the penitent's right to have such a confessor. The responsibility of finding such a confessor is not the penitent's; he or she has the "right" to such a confessor. The responsibility to embody the mercy of Christ is the confessor's; the penitent has the right to find in the priest the embodiment of God's forgiveness.
Contrary to your reading, a main thrust of his remarks is to stress the gift and importance of the sacrament to which he himself has recourse "every fifteen days."
As for your remark concerning the Scalfari "interview," I had on an earlier post here questioned the propriety of its placement on the Vatican website under "Speeches." The misplacement became even more egregious (in the English, not Italian sense of the word) when it was revealed that the text was based not on a recording or even notes, but on a reconstruction by the founder of La Repubblica.
" how you derive from it that he is quesioning the obligation for all (including himself!) to confess "all serious sins" is a puzzle."
Fr. Imbelli --
We'll just have to disagree about what Francis meant when he said (according to LaStampa), "Do faithful who go to confession have the duty? No, they have the right to find God's forgiveness in priests." («I fedeli penitenti hanno il dovere? - ha chiesto il Papa - No, hanno il diritto di trovare nei sacerdoti dei servitori del perdono di Dio».)
I think he's saying that if the only priest available is, say, a curmudgeon who is going to yell at you in the confessional, then you have no duty to confess to him.

Well, I've finally returned from my unofficial sabbatical…and am thrilled to be blogging again. Although I took a break from writing, I can assure you I did not take a break from working.
As you already know, we recently debuted several new lines of headphones. In addition to the vPulse, the vFree and vTrue are now available for purchase by Velodyne fans everywhere.
It goes without saying that the process of developing a product for a crowded marketplace is multi-layered and complex. But the creative process for developing the packaging of a product can be just as complicated
And that's where I've been the last few months…deeply embedded in the packaging process. As with all developmental and creative processes, we began with meetings to discuss what we wanted from our packaging besides the obvious, selling the product.
This prompted me to think a lot about how packaging impacted me as a consumer. Typically, I walk into a store with no expectations. I take a step back, scanning the shelves and waiting for something to jump out at me. It's as if I'm saying, "I'm here now. Impress me with something."
What is the "something" I want?
I want a package to make me feel something meaningful. I want to feel inspired. I want to feel happy. I want to laugh. I want to be amazed. I want that package to stand up and make me smile, to compel me to pick it up and hear the promises it makes to me about what I can find inside.
Ultimately, I want that package to make me feel that I can't leave the store without taking it with me. And once I get it home and remove what's inside, I often treat the packaging as a product itself .
In fact, I've been known to save beautiful packaging and boxes for weeks or months, claiming, "Just in case. I might need it again some day. Really, I might." The truth is that I just can't bring myself to throw away something so beautiful, something that inspires a connection to emotions.
Personally, these are some of the things that appeal to me when it comes to packaging:
Texture: I do love to see a package that makes me want to touch it. It can be the actual texture of the paper or material. It can also be a design that gives the illusion of being three dimensional, prompting me to want to touch it to confirm that it's flat. Our limited edition sculpture-inspired headphone packaging is literally molded into headphones and begs to be touched. That's the appeal.
- Conceptual/literal: This is what I would call "clever" concepts. Arthur Schreiber's design for Samurai vodka would fit into this category. It's brilliant in that it presents a literal interpretation of the actual company name and, at the same time, embodies the entire concept of a samurai. I'll not only remember the packaging after I walk away, but I'll remember the name of the company and the concept behind the name. Henrik Persson's packaging for a limited edition book about New York City is also a great example of this. This type of packaging might be my favorite. It doesn't just make me feel something. It also makes me think.
- Shape: An unexpected shape in a world of square boxes is another type of packaging that appeals to me. Kleenex did a great job with their summer series called "Perfect Slice of Summer." The thing I find most appealing is that it is also conceptually relevant, reflecting tones of summer and evoking an emotional reaction about the season. Brilliant.
- Subtlety: Granted, I'm a minimalist at heart anyway. But sometimes the shelves are glutted with so many items screaming, "Look at me! Look at me!" that they all begin to look the same. And that's when the one package that stands regal, demurely looking back at me without too much effort…that's the one I can't resist.
What kind of packaging speaks to you?

a well crafted christmas
I have to show off some of the loot I scored at Christmas. When one of John's daughters suggested that we all exchange handmade or recycled gifts (or any combination thereof) I wholeheartedly agreed and passed the idea on to the Gaughan side of the family as well. I made out big time.
Annegret #
The coffee table, the vase and the wool ball – fantastic ideas !

I so admire the "yarn keeper". What an original idea.January 14, 2010
what beautifully and thoughtfully crafted gifts! your mother, obviously an artist, has a wondferful aesthetic.January 15, 2010
Those are all beautiful, Norah! How do you get the yarn into the ceramic ball? Is it two half-spheres, or is there an open bottom? What a great Christmas exchange, too. Wish I had such a crafty family, but I have to settle for being the sole handmade gift giver…January 15, 2010
You are one talented family, for sure! Love the yarn holder, especially. Could be a market for that lovely creation!January 15, 2010
Love it when people do the homemade Christmas thing. Especially when there's so much talent! I run an Arts Council in rural Canada and tried to support our local artists by buying handmade this Christmas.
LOVE John's table! Would be perfect at our place😉
And I went on a tour today, learning how to make pottery and was totally inspired by your mum's yarn ball! Took inspiration from the design to carve into one of my plates.January 15, 2010
Jan #
Does your mother sell her pieces? I'd be interested in a yarn ball holder. It's beautiful. You sure had a great Christmas. Such a talented family!February 5, 2010

Love the yarn ball design and would love to see it for sale. My Mom is a quilter so I do get some rather beautiful handmade gifts but we have no potters in the family.February 5, 2010

The new locking mechanism.
Hi Rosauro,
Thanks for the photo. I am thinking how to explain the detent locking mechanism. Probably, I need to have a short video clip for it.
Any way, the key point is the user can switch on/off the detent lock on the fly by a simple flip on the switch.
We listen. We try harder.

I think I may have a simple solution...

How can I tell Steam to put games on another disk?
They are currently on C: but I'm getting a little short on space.
How can I tell Steam to put games on another disk?
They are currently on C: but I'm getting a little short on space.
You could try using Steam Mover - it's built for doing exactly that.
Steam installs to the following folder by default:
C:\Program Files\Steam
Files for games installed on Steam are stored in the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\
During the installation of Steam, you have the option to install Steam to a location other than the default. Since Steam relies on the game files residing in the SteamApps folder, your game files cannot be moved outside of this folder. The game files must be in the SteamApps folder in order to function.
If Steam is already installed, you may move the installation to another location, such as a different hard drive using the following process.
Moving Your Steam Installation Important:
Please ensure that you have your Steam account name and password before following this procedure. Also ensure that your account is linked to your current email address so that you can reset your password if necessary.
It is not recommended that you install Steam to an external hard drive due to potential performance issues. Warning:
It is highly recommended that you create a backup of your SteamApps folder before attempting this process. If there is a problem in this process and you do not have a backup of your games or the SteamApps folder, it will be necessary to reinstall the games individually. Please see the Using the Steam Backup Feature topic.
The following instructions are a simple way to move your Steam installation along with your games:
Steam will briefly update and then you will be ready to play. All future game content will be downloaded to the new folder (D:\Games\Steam\SteamApps\ in this example)
If you encounter any errors during the move process or when Steam is launched from the new location, it may be necessary to perform a more thorough process:
If you are moving your Steam installation to a new hard drive and want to keep game saves/profiles for third party games that are not saved on Steam Cloud most of these can be found in your Documents folder: ~\Documents[username]\My Games. Moving this folder to the same location on your new hard drive will maintain your saves/profiles.
If you're using win 7 or win vista you can use the Symbolic link functionality and create a transparent shortcut.
so you'd go
or so
p.s. if in vista you need to run cmd as an admin
Steam now allows you to have multiple libraries, so you can have one for each drive. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a built-in way to move a game from one library folder to another (except deleting it and reinstalling it to a different location, which involves downloading it again). But I've been able to move games manually.
If you haven't yet created a library on the destination drive, you can do that by going to Steam > Settings > Downloads > Steam Library Folders > Add Library Folder.
To move a game from one library to another: (I'll assume you want to move "Game of the Year" from
This doesn't involve symbolic links, so it should work just fine on Windows XP.
I use SteamTool, which is a tool that lets you move some games to another drive.
It's similar to Steam Mover, which was mentioned in another answer.
You can literally copy the entire Steam folder from
Try copying everything to an external drive and then pasting into the new drive.

Who we are Where We Work
Longwall Mining
Longwall Mining
This drawing depicts the longwall method of underground mining. Longwall mining now accounts for about 31% of underground coal production. There are over 100 longwall operations in the United States, most of them in mines in Appalachia. In longwall mining, a cutting head moves back and forth across a panel of coal about 800 feet in width and up to 7,000 feet in length. The cut coal falls onto a flexible conveyor for removal. Longwall mining is done under hydraulic roof supports (shields) that are advanced as the seam is cut. The roof in the mined out areas falls as the shields advance.

I just unlocked this skill which feeds on the life force of my enemies to increase my Intelligence by 30 seconds. When I activate it, a circle of light surrounds me. What's not clear to me is whether enemies need to be in this radius of light for the Soul Harvest to take effect. Or do I activate the skill and then kill my enemies to reap the effect's benefits and how can I tell if I am benefiting from it?
As someone who has only played Witch Doctor and uses Soul Harvest as a main part of my strategy, I can confirm that the monsters need to be within the radius upon casting.
Note that the max for this effect is 5, which is not hard to achieve. Also worth noting: it is very effective to charge headfirst into a cluster of enemies, harvest their souls, then use Spirit Walk to find your best point to attack from.
I play Witch Doctor, and soul harvest works as the first reason you posted, enemies need to be in the ring that you cast for the intelligence gain (up to 5 stacks, 1 per enemy harvested), as well as the added rune you added to your soul harvest.
Life Siphon rune is also the best rune in my opinion to add onto that spell once you unlock it. Its pretty much a full heal every 6 seconds if you get the maximum amount of enemies in your soul harvest. Its a really good spell :D
As a small additional note, the duration of the Soul Harvest effect is longer than the cool down on the ability. This means that it is possible to harvest again, before the first effect wears off. If you do, the new harvest overwrites the previous. So it is possible to say have 5 stacks, encounter a lone enemy, and harvest down to 1 stack (which is to your disadvantage).
