Do you fancy bankrolling Public Enemy's next album? If you answered "Yeeeaaah booooyyy!" you'll want to visit Sellaband, where a new venture enables you to do just that.
The veteran hip-hop act, who are currently unsigned, are aiming to raise $250,000 to fund their 13th studio album, the follow-up to 2007's ludicrously titled 'How You Sell Soul To A Soulless People Who Sold Their Soul'. Fans can buy shares, or "parts", for $25 each. The amount raised so far stands at $18,000 – enough to keep Flavor Flav in lurid novelty clockfaces, but not much else.
Still, Chuck D seems optimistic. For him, the partnership signposts a gleaming future for artists, outside the old, crumbling major-label structure. "Sellaband is the new frontier," he says. "It will completely redefine the way the music business operates."
No it won't. The fan-funded 'model' has been knocking around for years. We already have Pledgemusic, Bandstocks (which admittedly helped Patrick Wolf raise £100,000 to record 'The Bachelor'), Slice The Pie and IndieGoGo - all of them united by the fact that they attract more fawning write-ups in the tech press than they do actual users.
What's the point? If Public Enemy have enough of a fanbase to fund an album, why do they need Sellaband? Why don't they appeal to their fans direct - as Marillion have been doing since 2001? And what's in it for the people who stump up cash? Sellaband is vague on the subject: "Artists might even let you get a cut a cut of their revenues." Yeah. But they won't, will they?
The whole enterprise fundamentally alters the relationship between band and fan - and not in a good way. In theory, it's of a piece with Nine Inch Nails 'open-sourcing' their back catalogue via their open-to-all, copyright-free remix site, or Radiohead inviting amateurs to make their own videos for '15 Step'. Putting fans in charge, democratising 'content', yadda yadda. But the difference is, in this case, actual money changes hands. The moment you contribute to band's recording costs, you're no longer a fan, you're a shareholder. And if you think that's cool or desirable, you're Bono.
That said, the concept of fan-funded music raises some intriguing questions. Namely: if you have financial stake in the album, do you also have a say in how it's made? In Public Enemy's case, could you, for example, tell them to ease up on the excruciating puns ('Muse Sick-N-Hour Mess Age'? Come on chaps, I've heard Carter USM couplets that were less laboured than that)?
But there's a serious point here: if fans hold the purse-strings, they also ought to have power of creative veto. I envisage a Dragon's Den-style scenario, where musicians queue up, with pleading eyes, desperate to attract the largesse of fans: "I'm sorry, The Rev, you're a good guy, I liked 'He Said He Loved Me', but your new album sounds like a shit Bentley Rhythm Ace. I'm out."
You could extend the concept to any band that's fallen on creative hard times. Do you think, if REM fans were in charge, they'd settle for an album as limp as 'Accelerate'? Of course not: they'd blockade the studio doors, force them to keep plugging away until they came up with a song as good as 'Finest Worksong'.
Me, I'd force Muse to ditch the tedious, wobbly-voiced ballads and focus on writing more of those gigantic riffs that sound like spaceships exploding. And I'd assert my shareholder's rights by telling Arctic Monkeys to give up trying to sound like Queens Of The Stone Age and start sounding like that thrilling, spiky Sheffield band they used to be.
Imagine the possibilities. If you had shares in a band, any band, what would you tell them to do?

When I wanted to unfriend someone I'd have to hunt around for the "unfriend" button. You've made it so clear how to do it. Thanks.
I'll be looking for other great tips from you. See you soon!
Hi Carla
Well Face book is constantly in to new stuff as we all know 🙂 LOL
I did know the old way of doing this but you just teach me the new way so i need
to thank you for the good Video.
Another great tip Carla – while I haven't had to deal with this issue very often, it does come up from time to time so this is really helpful.
Nice walkthrough. I do not do too much unfriending. Its been a couple months since the last one and that was because the person immediately spammed me after I accepted a friend request. I only give one chance and they blew it off the bat. I normally do not actively look to unfriend people unless it is spamming or way too offensive for my tastes.
Nice training. Thankfully I haven't had to unfriend many people.
Thank you Carla, this was an infor I needed to see and hear and now finally it is clear to me;)
Do you know if I can eliminate the games and apps icon, I keep recieveing invites to play and I do not like playing on FB;)
Thanks for your blog and your clarity!
Thanks Carla for this great tutorial of how to "unfriend" people on facebook. I've done it step by step, but need to unclutter more. I like the idea of scrolling down the list to unfreind them.
Thanks for this great tip, I certainly need to get on it because there are too many people on my facebook that are leading off the business side of it.
I thank you,
Hello Carla,
I had to wipe out some of my so called "friends" who turned out to be other networkers with excellent spamming skills.
very handy tutorial, indeed!
Great Tutorial, Carla.
Do you know if they find out about it?
Then there is the Subscribe/unsubscribe button and it seems like FB made some changes there again in regards to being able to choose what you want to subscribe to. I now seems under Settings when you hover on 'Friend'. Mmmmh?!
Thank you for providing this information.
Just this past Wednesday I gave a webinar all about Facebook and I did not mention how to unfriend someone. Thanks for explaining that. Very valuable.

Hi Carla,
I have not had to unfriend anyone on Facebook yet but this video shows how to do it easily. Thanks for sharing this valuable information and for all the great tips you share on your blog.
Excellent tip! Especially with regard to keeping our list "clean". I'm thinking I have a lot of cleaning to do. Thanks again!

I want to know when should developers read and learn about design patterns? Is it in junior, senior, or beyond senior level?
This question is very fuzzy one for me.
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.
I want to know when should developers read and learn about design patterns? Is it in junior, senior, or beyond senior level?
This question is very fuzzy one for me.
Early on, you should have a passive knowledge of design patterns. That is, you should know about the most common design patterns that they exist, but you should not try to use them actively. Since most design patterns have to do with class design, you should have a comprehension of classes and program structure before you learn design patterns.
The danger when learning design pattern is that you want to use them actively, even if they are not the right tool for the job. If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Postpone the usage of design patterns until you hit a problem which you recognize from a design pattern.
I'd say that you can start reading about them once you've grasped the concepts of object oriented programming.
Head First Design Patterns is a great first book for learning about design patterns.
I dont think it will do any harm for a junior to start learning the basics around design patterns. Maybe at that level the knowledge should be passed to them by the senoirs developers there, where hopefully they can provide real world examples based on how those patterns have been implemented within their company.
To follow that up, there are some good books out there like Head First Design Patterns, and as they become more experienced they might want to persue the subjects in more detail.
Personally I'm really getting into using the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) Pattern which lends itself nicely within the .NET 4.0 environment.
I actually find the book dangerous in the hands of junior developers.. Leads to over and misuse of patterns, and the general tendency to run around with a hammer looking for nails. It's a book full of solutions, and if you're not intimately familiar with the problems.. then things can go sideways.
If it were up to me, I'd prefer folks to write lots of code. Just do it. Write code. Make a mess, feel pain, fix it.. Design patterns is handy later on when you need a vocabulary for expressing solutions to team-mates.
Also, I think Refactoring ought to be on everyone's desk way before Design Patterns. It's much more pragmatic.
Just me, though.

The Working Party on Shipbuilding provides an international platform for the exchange of information as well as the elaboration of economic and policy analysis on several aspects of the shipbuilding sector. WP6 aims to establish normal competitive conditions in the shipbuilding industry notably by encouraging transparency and consulting widely with both non-OECD economies as well as relevant industry groups.
The Korean shipbuilding industry is one of the top global players, leading by value and second only to China by volume. However, the global economic crisis has dented its finances and it now faces serious challenges to set itself back on a solid footing.
Steel is one of the most widely produced industrial products in the world, and the sector depends heavily on a range of raw materials for its production. The aim of this workshop was to better understand the impacts of trade-restrictive raw material policies on the global steel industry and to explore policy approaches that would improve the longer-term efficiency and functioning of these markets.
The purpose of this workshop was to better understand this increasingly important market segment for the shipbuilding industry and particularly the scope and limitations for reorientation of shipyards towards offshore vessels and the lessons learnt from recent diversification strategies.
The OECD Science, Technology and Industry Outlook 2014 reviews key trends in science, technology and innovation (STI) policies, and performance in more than 45 economies, including OECD countries and major emerging economies. The report draws on the latest OECD work on science and innovation policy analysis and measurement.
Following an overview of the STI global landscape and policy trends, key policy issues are discussed across a series of thematic policy profiles. The third section examines individual STI country performances, along with the most recent national policy developments. These global and national policy trends are monitored by a unique international policy survey conducted by the OECD every two years.
The emergence of GVCs challenges our conventional wisdom on how we look at economic globalisation and in particular, the policies that we develop around it. The OECD is preparing a broad range of work to help policy makers understand the effects of GVCs on a number of policy domains.
The study assesses the role of feed-in tariffs (FITs) and renewable energy certificates (RECs) in creating incentives for cross-border investments and for investments in particular technological portfolios via M&A. The analysis explores the dataset on M&As in alternative energy sources worldwide over 2005-2011.
Despite large and growing investments in knowledge and innovation, productivity growth in many countries has slowed in recent years. At the same time, the urgent need for more rapid innovation (including its uptake and diffusion) in several key areas, such as in environment. This joint OECD-NBER workshop on 25-26 September 2014 will bring together academic experts to consider these challenges.
The AMNE database presents detailed data on the activities of foreign affiliates in OECD countries (inward and outward activity of multinationals). The data indicate the increasing importance of foreign affiliates in the economies of host countries, particularly in production, employment, value added, research and development, labour compensation and exports.
This publication reports on trends in the steelmaking capacity of economies that are not members of the OECD. It examines existing capacity and investments that will lead to changes by 2014, with detailed tables on equipment, starting dates of planned projects, and works ownership.

Epigenetic silencing of the MGMT gene through promoter methylation correlates with improved survival in Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) patients receiving concurrent chemoradiotherapy. Although the clinical benefit is primarily seen in patients with methylated MGMT promoter, some unmethylated patients also respond to Temozolomide. One possible explanation may be intratumoral heterogeneity. This study was designed to assess the methylation status of the MGMT promoter in different areas of GBM and determine if methylation status varied depending on the fixation technique (paraffin-embedding versus fresh frozen) used to store tissue. Using intraoperative navigation, biopsies were obtained from three distinct regions: the enhancing outer area, the non-enhancing inner core, and an area immediately outside the enhancing region. Only patients with GBM were included for evaluation and analysis. Samples taken from each area were divided with half stored by flash freezing and the other half stored using paraffin fixation. Methylation Specific-PCR (MS-PCR) was used for analysis of MGMT promoter methylation. Thirteen patients were included. Ten were male with a median age of 62 years. In each patient, samples were taken from the enhancing rim and the necrotic centre. However, it was not considered safe or feasible to obtain samples from the area immediately adjacent to the enhancing tumor rim in one case. All patients were homogeneous for methylation status throughout their tumor and tissue taken adjacent to it when frozen tissue was used. However, four patients had discrepancies in the MGMT promoter status between the frozen and paraffin-embedded blocks and one patient was not homogeneous within the tumor when paraffin-embedded tissue was used. MGMT promoter methylation status was homogeneous in all GBM tumors. Our observation that methylation status varied depending if the DNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded versus frozen tissue is concerning. Although the reason for this is unclear, we postulate that the timing from resection to fixation or the process of fixation itself may potentially alter methylation status in paraffin-embedded tumors.

Access to MyStatesman included for Statesman subscribers.Explore
Executive pay at the Texas Department of Transportation has spiked over the past year as the agency's new chief, tasked to overhaul the department after several years of legislative and internal scrutiny, brought in more than a dozen upper echelon employees and sharply increased the salaries of some top managers already on hand.
The average salary of TxDOT's 10 highest paid workers topped $200,000 as of April 1 — 21.4 percent above that average a year earlier. The top three salaries, at an average of almost $251,000, were 42.5 percent higher than the top three salaries' average a year earlier. The salary figures were obtained by the American-Statesman through the Texas Open Records Act.
Some of those executives and Texas Transportation Commission board members say the pay boost is necessary to lure talent from the private sector to help TxDOT negotiate complex, high-dollar, public-private partnerships largely for toll road projects.
But the raises have occurred with little public awareness. State Rep. Joe Pickett, an El Paso Democrat who led the House Transportation Committee in 2009-10, didn't know the extent of the ballooning executive payroll until told by the Statesman. Pickett questioned the wisdom of the elevated pay amid deep cuts elsewhere in state government.
Executive Director Phil Wilson, hired in October by the commission and paid more than 50 percent more than his predecessor, also has given raises of between 16 and 30 percent to the agency's chief engineer, chief financial officer, general counsel and government and public affairs director. The management portfolio of those four executives, all of them at TxDOT before Wilson's hiring, has remained roughly the same or, in one case, has been reduced.
Meanwhile, the average salary of the agency's 11,500 workers, in April about $48,000 a year, increased 3.7 percent over the same period. TxDOT's overall payroll, including overtime and other bonus payments, was about $560 million a year as of April 1.
Commission Chairman Ted Houghton, who owns an El Paso financial services firm, said the elevated pay and rash of high-level hiring are justified by the growing sophistication of TxDOT business practices as the agency works with private sector engineering firms and financiers on billion-dollar projects.
"It's a huge paradigm shift," Houghton said. "We have to go get the best and the brightest to play in those circles of financing major projects. It's a different business model than just having engineers run the show."
Wilson said that the Legislature, recognizing the need for a new kind of leadership that must be lured from the higher-paying private sector, in the 2012-13 budget passed last year authorized him to pay up to five TxDOT executives as much as $292,500 a year. And Wilson, who makes $292,500 a year, pointed to a January 2011 report from the TxDOT Restructure Council, a three-member body appointed by the Transportation Commission in the wake of several studies critical of the agency, that recommended raising executive pay.
"They all realized we need this kind of talent to run a complex agency," Wilson told the American-Statesman. Wilson, a longtime aide to former Republican Sen. Phil Gramm and Gov. Rick Perry, was Texas secretary of state for about a year (under an appointment by Perry) and then a utility lobbyist and manager before taking the TxDOT position. A move by the commission to pay him even more — $381,000 a year — was shelved after public criticism, and so far it has not been revived.
Wilson has created several new upper echelon positions. Among them: a director of innovative finance and debt management at $250,000 a year; a chief planning/projects officer and a chief administrative and strategy officer, both at $245,000 a year; a director of planning at $195,000 a year; a project management director at $160,000; and directors of performance excellence and operational excellence, each making $135,000. And he hired Scott Haywood — who also formerly worked for Gramm and Perry and in the secretary of state's office, as well as for an aerospace company — as chief of staff, a new position, also at $135,000 a year.
Two of those hires — the innovative finance and administrative and strategy positions — occurred since the beginning of April, so the percentage increases in management salaries probably are greater than the Statesman's April-to-April comparison.
Wilson last week brought on Ron Wilson, a Democrat who represented a Houston district in the Texas House from 1977 to 2005, as director of TxDOT's Office of Civil Rights. Ron Wilson's salary is $140,000 a year, $10,000 higher than what was paid to the previous holder of that position. The two men are not related.
Phil Wilson also gave large raises to Deputy Executive Director John Barton (29.8 percent), General Counsel Robert Jackson (26.4 percent) Chief Financial Officer James Bass (23.8 percent) and Government and Public Affairs Director Coby Chase (16.6 percent), TxDOT longtimers with 18 to 27 years at the agency. Wilson called them "mission-critical."
"I wanted to do whatever I could to retain them," he said.
Agency spokesman Bob Kaufman said several new hires are taking "significant" pay cuts to work at TxDOT. Those people, as well as some TxDOT managers, he said, "can command salaries that are 3-4 times their state salary."
Raises at district level
Some have questioned the salaries — seven TxDOT employees now make more than the $192,000 final salary of Amadeo Saenz, an engineer who until his August retirement was TxDOT's executive director — particularly in an otherwise austere budget cycle in which state government is sloughing off workers. State employees have not gotten an across-the-board pay increase since September 2008, according to Andy Homer, director of governmental relations for the Texas Public Employees Association.
"I know most (TxDOT executives), and they're all good people," Pickett said. "But it's got to be relative to the rest of state government. They're asking all of us to do more with less."
The picture is different further down the management chain, at the district engineer level. No district engineers, who run the agency's 25 geographic subdivisions around the state and work closely with local officials to build new projects and maintain existing TxDOT roads, received raises in the 15 months since April 1, 2011. Five district engineers have since retired, and two have been promoted to other, higher-paying jobs at TxDOT.
District engineers, as of this April, made between $130,000 and $160,000 a year, depending on their experience level and which district they run. Austin district engineer Carlos Lopez, who is retiring later this month, makes $151,200 and has received no raise since sometime before April 2011.
"I just don't see how that has been the case" that none received a raise for more than a year, said Pickett, estimating that the El Paso district engineer works a 60-hour week. "They're the ones that are the closest contact" with the public.
Kaufman, a former Dell Inc. spokesman hired in January at $190,000 a year to be TxDOT's chief communications officer — also a new position — said in a June 29 email that raises for district engineers were "under review." On Friday he said that 19 district engineers had gotten pay increases, effective July 1.
Wilson said, "It is important to me as executive director to make sure we take care of (district engineers) as best we can."
Critic fears lease deals
Longtime toll road and TxDOT critic Terri Hall from Comal County is no fan of the higher salaries. But she is even more disturbed by the thinking behind the hiring push and what it could yield: more long-term toll road lease deals between TxDOT and private companies.
"If these guys think that this constitutes a remake of TxDOT, it does, but in the completely wrong direction," Hall said. "To me, it's not worth it to pay 20, 40, 50 percent more (to TxDOT managers) to get more expensive roads that nobody can afford to travel on."
Hall, executive director and founder of Texans Uniting for Reform and Freedom, was a frequent speaker at the Legislature in 2007, when those long-term deals fell into disfavor with lawmakers and were banned, with a few exceptions. Last year, with the issue cooling and gas tax revenue falling further behind meeting the state's highway needs, the Legislature allowed TxDOT to reach seven specific toll road lease or financing deals and expanded the power of local toll authorities to do them as well.
Wilson and other TxDOT officials say the need to negotiate those agreements quickly, while still protecting the state's interest, is why they hired certain people, including Russell Zapalac and Ben Asher.
Zapalac, a former executive with HDR Engineering who has extensive experience in toll road projects and public-private partnerships, was hired in January at an annual salary of $245,000 for the new position of chief planning/projects officer.
Zapalac's résumé notes that he worked on Perry's now-canceled Trans-Texas Corridor plan, among many other toll projects.
Asher, formerly a senior managing director at Public Resources Advisory Group, a financial advisory firm, is making $250,000 a year as the innovative finance and debt management director.
Plans on the fast track
TxDOT officials say that with Wilson, Zapalac, Asher and others in place, six of those seven complicated projects authorized by the Legislature — three in Dallas-Fort Worth and three in the Houston area — are either on the way to construction or have cleared critical bureaucratic hurdles.
"Never before have we delivered billions of dollars in projects in that fashion so quickly and effectively," said Bill Meadows, a Fort Worth businessman who has served on the Transportation Commission since 2008. "The way things historically have happened at TxDOT, it would have taken years to deliver those projects."
Commissioners also credit Wilson and his staff with figuring out earlier this year how to marshal about $2 billion — some of that money would have become available eventually, but the agency accelerated its availability — and then quickly deciding how to spend it. The commission in June approved a list of about 85 projects, about 60 percent for highway expansions that include tolling. The list included $130 million for adding a toll lane to each side of MoPac Boulevard (Loop 1) north of Lady Bird Lake.
Tom Johnson, executive vice president with the Associated General Contractors of Texas, said that with the Legislature and the public loath to raise the state's gas tax — Perry has also opposed raising the tax, and it has been frozen at 20 cents a gallon since 1991 — TxDOT had no choice but to turn to toll roads and private tollway deals for huge highway projects that might have been built with tax money in the past. He said the longtime TxDOT engineers previously at the top of the organization lacked the expertise to negotiate such deals with private sector lawyers "who paid more for their suits than we paid some of those engineers in a month. It was an unfair fight.
"When you change that, you're going to have to offer big bucks to get good managers," Johnson said.
Meadows said that Wilson and his team have brought energy and urgency to an agency that "was overdue for an overhaul. The check-engine light had been on for a long time."
The commission, he said, is "sensitive" to the issue of uncommonly high TxDOT salaries.
"It's a lot of money, don't get me wrong," Meadows said. "But what is also important is, is it serving the citizens of this state? I'm saying, yes, it is."

I'm currently experimenting with my own backup software, and just wondered where the NTFS volume GUID (i.e. the one that appears as \?\Volume{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}) is actually stored, offset wise, on the partition? Is it always at a calculatable offset, or is it part of the $MFT or $Volume record or something like that?
I spent hours in front of a partition with my hex editor and discovered that the $VOLUME_NAME attribute of the $Volume metafile is actually just that - the textual volume name seen in 'Computer' and the likes - i.e. "My Disk"
It turns out that the GUID style I asked about above is stored only in the mount manager database within the registry at MountedDevices. What finally led me to this is that the same disk (with the same serial number on its NTFS partition) will get a different GUID if you plug it into a different machine.

Patient Comments: Sjögren's Syndrome - Describe Your Experience
Please describe your experience with Sjögren's syndrome.
Comment from: JP, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: February 09
I was diagnosed with Sjogren's syndrome about 2 weeks ago, even though my rheumatologist told me I've had it for 4 years. I don't remember him telling me at all! I've got the dry mouth and eyes but at least no corneal ulcers. What I'm scared of now is the swelling of my legs, ankles and forearms. I read that there is a rare condition related to Sjogren's that can cause cirrhosis of the liver. I am so terrified my heart beats rapidly all the time. I am going through some really stressful things right now. Maybe that had an effect. I hope for all of us to at least be able to lead some kind of life. I know I should stay positive but right now it's very hard to do.
Comment from: Faith, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: December 26
I was diagnosed with Sjogren's syndrome about 5 years ago. Like many patients I have dry eyes and mouth. I've had terrible back pain in the past. After receiving a steroid shot I seem to have gone in a mini remission. I am thankful for the remission. Generally I try to eat extremely healthy, I have a NutriBullet which makes it easier to eat my fruits and vegetables. I use coconut oil on my skin especially before I shower. This makes my skin less dry and a lot less itchy. Some days are worse than others. I may try a vegetarian diet if I can find enough protein replacements.
Comment from: Tinak, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: December 05
I've had Sjogren's since 2002 with severe dry eyes and dry mouth. I also was diagnosed with Hashimoto's at the same time and was very sick. I've have punctum plugs, and been on Restasis from the onset due to the severity of eye dryness. However, for the past five years, my ophthalmologist sent me to get serum tears. That's where they draw vials of your own blood, spin the serum, and make tears. It has been a boon. I had to wear goggles due to the dryness, and now I don't. Although I still have to put OTC drops in, as well as night gel and Restasis, the serum tears are wonderful. I go every 3 to 4 months for blood draws. Evoxac has worked for my dry mouth, but lately I've had a serious flare up with increased dryness of the mouth and eyes as well as fatigue, lots of it. I hope that my symptoms will subside without further damage, but I don't know. I'm also seeing doctors for chronic cough with phlegm, an episode of laryngospasms which was terrifying, and severe silent reflux. Sjogren's has reared its ugly head, making life miserable. We all must take one day at a time and trust things will get better!
Comment from: Mara, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: October 07
I am now 75 but in 2008 I had viral pneumonia and was in the hospital for four days. I was active and enjoyed life until then. After returning home I was tired all of the time and had no energy. There were times that I would pass out or get dizzy and light headed when standing for too long. If I tried to do house work or something I would get short of breath and light headed and would have to sit down. My eyes do get dry to where I use Systane in them. My right salivary gland did swell to where I looked like I had the mumps there. My doctor pushed on it to show me that it would secrete, and my left one does not. I do not have dry mouth but am thirsty a lot. I was sent to a rheumatologist because my doctor thought I may have SLE, lupus. The rheumatologist didn't thinks so because I didn't have enough markers. This after all kinds of tests including heart. I have been chronically fatigued since the pneumonia and in April this year (2014) I developed skin lesions on my chest and back that went to my lower back and then my arms and legs, and they all itched. I was then sent to a dermatologist that did a battery of tests and thought I may have had an allergy to one of my newly prescribed medicines so she had me go off that and gave me some ointment to use on my spots and said to use Vaseline all over for my dry skin. After that she had some more blood work done and a biopsy of my skin. She told me after my labs came back that I had Sjogren's syndrome and said that she was going to start me on Plaquenil but to check with my eye doctor first. At least if this is indeed what the problem is I now know why I'm chronically fatigued.
Comment from: Debsmith, 35-44 Female (Patient) Published: September 03
I was diagnosed with Sjogren's syndrome through blood tests a year ago at age 38. I had slightly irritated dry eyes but my biggest problems were the unfounded fatigue, flu-like feeling and achy joints. I am now on Plaquenil, taking many supplements and following a strict Paleo diet. The diet has made the biggest positive changes for me.
Comment from: Sandie, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: May 09
I was just diagnosed with Sjogren's officially today. All this joint pain and chronic fatigue for years, I felt like dying, didn"t care. Rheumatologist dismissed me as fibromyalgia only. Well, maybe if he at least took blood work the first time! I mean I've only been in pain for... twenty years! Recently I started getting the dry eyes, dry mouth, depression, passing out from pure exhaustion, but guess what? I now have a name for what I have and I am happy and relieved because I am going to fight for my long, bright future with my wonderful husband! I take Zoloft, Klonopin as needed, and Daypro Alta, no narcotics, no prednisone! I also use some oral and vaginal lubricants.

Does anyone know if its possible to create a model instance and apply the ID and any other attributes without having to load it from the database? I tried doing this, but the associations are not fetched from the database :( Any ideas?
What I want to accomplish is simply this:
- Fetch an existing record from the database.
- Store as "hashed" output of the record into redis or some other memory store.
- Next time when that record is fetched, fetch the cached store first and if it is not found then goto step 1.
- If there is a cache hit, then load all the cached attributes into that model and make that model instance behave as if it were a model fetched from the database with a finite set of columns.
This is where I am stuck, what I've been doing is creating a Model.new object and setting each of the params manually. This works, but it treats the instantiated model object as a new record. There has got to be an intermediate subroutine in ActiveRecord that does the attribute setting.

HP may be one of the largest suppliers of notebooks in the world, after Dell it's ranked second worldwide, so why do their machines lack that "must have" factor of the likes of Sony and Apple? For the main part, HP works to the keep-it-simple approach and just take care of business.
Which segues neatly with the arrival of the HP Compaq nx6125, which so clearly is taking care of business, users that is. This is the first Compaq to sport an AMD processor and it has taken the arrival of the Turion 64-bit processor to make an impression. Turion is being billed as the rival to Intel's all-dominant Pentium M chip and while we've yet to see any real battery gains from the Turion, the use of 64-bit processing means its more than powerful enough for notebook use.
At this price point you find the Turion 64 ML-30 CPU running at 1.6GHz and is complemented by 512MB DDR SDRAM and a Seagate 60GB hard drive with a 5400rpm rotational speed. As a base specification this isn't too bad but if you consider that the nx6125 has a list price of £645 (inc. VAT) and suddenly you're looking at something special. In use, we found that this notebook could more than handle daily tasks. If you want to edit a little video or audio, it'll more than handle that too.
The 15-inch TFT panel uses standard technology, so you won't find an anti-glare layer, but this is a small sacrifice to pay as its bright and clear. In terms of graphics, you'll find the ATi Mobility Radeon X300 GPU, which is entry-level standard but is far better than opting for an integrated solution. With the inclusion of a TEAC dual-format DVD rewriter, large amounts of data can be backed up on DVD+ or DVD- discs. RecordNow! software is also included for creating CDs and DVDs, while InterVideo WinDVD plays movies.
Built with the corporate market in mind you'll find that the slate-grey chassis looks more like a ThinkPad from IBM than a Sony VAIO but it's still a relatively attractive machine. The main focus though has to be the build quality, which is robust and strong, you get the feeling that this notebook will take some serious damage and still come up fighting. Once again, this harks back to the concerns of the business buyer, who wants something a little more than just good looks.
Weighing in at 2.9kg, it isn't really ultraportable but we managed to get just less than 4 hours of battery life out of the system without too much trouble.
As if to remind you that this has been designed with business use in mind, the nx6125 comes with a biometric fingerprint scanner and the option of adding a Smart Card reader, which are controlled and managed using the HP ProtectTools security manager.
The HP Compaq nx6125 could well be the saving grace of the budget notebook market. Not only does it come in at an attractive price it also has the build quality and the physical clout to make this a notebook not only corporate users but also home users will be looking to buy.

MBSR is effective in alleviating stress, anxiety, panic, depression, chronic pain, and a wide range of medical conditions. Taught in classes and clinics worldwide, this powerful approach shows you how to focus on the present moment in order to permanently change the way you handle stress.
As you work through "A Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Workbook," you'll learn how to replace stress-promoting habits with mindful onesa skill that will last a lifetime.This groundbreaking, proven-effective program will help you relieve the symptoms of stress and identify its causes so that you can start living a healthier, happier life.

I know my way around Windows (Vista and 7, mostly, but I can do XP as well), Office, Mathematica, Photoshop, and whatever else I find useful. I'm a prolific Googler, too, so if I don't have knowledge about something, I know exactly what to search for to get what I want quickly and efficiently.

One night only

Drove through the 7km of beach that is Fuengirola, very nice and instead of the normal boats on roundabouts one here had a herd of elephants (?!?!?, couldn't get the camera out fast enough!), found the campsite, WOW how expensive????
Stayed anyway, thought we'd stay for the weekend, but ...
Riding with Bob and Sini
... carving on a well groomed blue piste, where you felt comfortable enough to lean over and let your ski edges bite and do what they're designed to do. It was similar in this case, the bends were not too tight and it was very comfortable leaning from side to side in almost a swaying action, working in unison with a machine that wanted to do exactly that. There weren't many blue runs though!
We must have ridden a couple of hundred ...
