The Narrows Reserve runs along the Little Miami River in Beavercreek, just a few miles from Kettering on Indian Ripple Rd.
We'll meet in the main parking lot and hike the Vista Trail, the River Trail, the Big Woods Trail, and the Sugar Bush Trail ...that should be about 4.25 miles. If the group decides to add another loop, if time and conditions allow let's do it.
Go PAST this sign to get to the park itself, assuming you are coming from the west.
To get to the Narrows find your way to 675, like you were going to The Greene. Get off on Indian Ripple Rd and head east into Beavercreek. Go past Fairfield Road light and keep going... the first entrance is the nature center, just past that is the park itself. Follow the short road into the park and look for the group.
Recommended Equipment:
If trails are soggy I would suggest hiking boots. A flashlight or head lamp is recommended in case we get ambitious and it starts to get dark. Water is always recommended on any hike. Otherwise I do not anticipate any difficulty ... trails are smooth, wide and well marked/maintained.
Thanks to Greene County Parks District for maintaining this little gem of a park.
Remember: Coming from Montgomery County the driveway to the main parking lot is just past the entrance to the nature center.
If you run into trouble feel free to call me at[masked]
Limited parking, if there are some +1 or +2 groups I may expand the attendance limit.
Kids and dogs welcome pursuant to Greene County Park rules and regulations.
Expect a pace of about 2.5 to 2.8 mph, with a few hills and a few "stairs" along with lots of smooth level walking.
"Muddiest hike ever!" Yes, the Narrows lived up to its reputation for muddy trails, but we still had a fun time. I think we saw Lake Michigan and hiked right alongside it :-). Good thing Jim warned us when "the other side is drier." Thanks Todd for a fun outing. Congrats to Mary for making it all the way to the mucky end.
0 · July 13, 2013
I'm going to do a little research today ... starting with checking on trail conditions ... this park can get really wet. I am also going to re-count parking spots before I make any changes to the attendance limit.
If your plans have changed for Wednesday please update your RSVP accordingly.
I will show up rain or shine unless we have known severe weather conditions. These annoying pop-up showers seem to be our new normal so I am not going to cancel because of rain!
More info later after my recon mission.

Minnesota ACLU places $1,000 bounty on voter-impersonatin' "rascals"
The ACLU has offered a $1,000 bounty
ACLU of Minnesota
The ACLU of Minnesota has stepped into the voter-ID controversy by offering a bounty: $1,000 for any "no good lyin' cheatin' vote stealin' rascal who would have been caught if the currently proposed Voter ID Amendment had already been enacted."
ACLU Executive Director Chuck Samuelson is confident his organization won't have to pay up. Samuelson believes no such "rascal" exists.
"Since 1858, there hasn't been one conviction for voter impersonation," Samuelson said. "So why do we need a bill that stops voter impersonation?"
Republican lawmakers are currently pushing legislation that would require voters to present photo identification at the polls come election time.
"It's an unneeded amendment," Samuelson said.
Mary Kiffmeyer is pushing against a fake problem, says the ACLU
As proof, Samuelson points to the 2008 election, when 2.9 million voters cast their ballots in Minnesota. There were 160 convictions for voter fraud, Samuelson says, but none of them had anything to do with voter impersonation. That makes for a "99%" accuracy rate in voting, he said.
"Honest to Pete, you find me a factory that works that close to perfect and I'd be shocked," Samuelson said. "They don't exist."
Republican legislator Mary Kiffmeyer told the Pioneer Press that voter impersonation does occur, even in Minnesota, but offered no evidence.
Anyone looking to collect the bounty can submit their evidence to the ACLU, which will only accept it by mail. Their office is at 2300 Myrtle Avenue, Suite 180, St. Paul, MN 55114.
According to the organization's legal disclaimer, entrants "must have proof of legal charge, indictment or conviction for voter impersonation in the State of Minnesota issued not before January 1, 2002."

A sub-1-dB noise figure HBM ESD-protected [-3 kV, 2.3 kV] low noise amplifier (LNA) has been integrated in a 0.35-μm RF CMOS process with on-chip inductors. The sensitivity of the LNA performances to the spread of parasitics associated with package and bondwire has been attenuated by using an inductive on-chip source degeneration. At 920 MHz and Pdc=8.6 mW, the LNA features: noise figure NF=1 dB, input return loss=-8.5 dB, output return loss=-27 dB, power gain G p=13 dB, input IIP3=-1.5 dBm. At a power dissipation of 5 mW and 17.6 mW, a NF respectively equal to 1.2 dB and 0.85 dB is measured. The CMOS LNA takes 12 pins of a TQFP48 package, an area of 1.0×0.66 mm2 (bondwire pads excluded) and it is the first HBM ESD-protected [-3 kV, 2.3 kV] CMOS LNA to break the 1-dB NF barrier

So i have been playing Castle Wolfenstien and i realize its an older game but wow . I must say that the enemy A.I. is awesome ! The nazis will go for cover or charge when they have the advantage , but worse is the fact that they will try to out flank you all the time . Sometimes circling the whole board to get behind you . This plus the fact that you can hear them talking in german gives it a very realistic feel , i love it ! But like i said before this is old news to most people . On a side note i cant find NBA Ballers on Xbox to add to my games , the game cube and playstation versions are there . wierd

"When you accept money in payment for your effort, you do so only on the conviction that you will exchange it for the product of the effort of others. It is not the moochers or the looters who give value to money. Not an ocean of tears nor all the guns in the world can transform those pieces of paper in your wallet into the bread you will need to survive tomorrow. Those pieces of paper which should have been gold, are a token of honor -- your claim upon the energy of the men who produce. Your wallet is your statement of hope that somewhere in the world around you there are men who will not default on that moral principle which is the root of money." ~ Ayn Rand
Robert Nozick
"Ralf Bader has given us an excellent guidebook toAnarchy, State, and Utopia, but he has done much more than this.[1] He offers insightful arguments of his own, often in defense of Nozick against his nonlibertarian critics. His book is a major advance in libertarian political theory."

Trainer Tom Albertrani is sitting on a trio of talented
3-year-old colts and the prospect of an exciting summer ahead.
Leading that group is Padua Stables' lightly raced Odysseus,
among the top 2010 Triple Crown prospects before going to the sidelines with a
left knee injury after finishing last in the Grade 1 Blue Grass Stakes at
Keeneland on April 10.
"From the reports I get he's doing very well and we hope he'll
be back in training in about thirty days," Albertrani said Sunday
morning. "The injury wasn't as bad as we first thought, he might have done
a little damage to the ligament in the front of his knee, but the reports are very,
very good."
Odysseus began his career at Aqueduct last fall, finishing
second after being bumped at the start in a maiden race on Halloween.
Brought back at Gulfstream Park
in January, he broke his maiden at second asking and went on win an allowance
contest at Tampa Bay Downs by 15 lengths in his third start. In March,
the Malibu Moon colt won an exhilarating renewal of the Grade 3 Tampa Bay
Derby, appearing beaten in the stretch but coming back late to win in a photo
with Schoolyard Dreams.
A new addition to Albertrani's barn is Jack T. Hammer's Ron
the Greek, who worked three furlongs in 39.12 over the Belmont
main track Wednesday morning.
Previously trained by Tom Amoss, the horse had not worked
since a sixth-place finish in the Grade 2 Louisiana Derby on March 27.
"He came in with a quarter crack so we had to nurse the foot
a little," Albertrani said. "We'll see how he does over the next couple
of weeks and then think about a schedule for him. I don't think there's
any possibility of making the Belmont Stakes; the time frame just doesn't look
as though it will work out. To go a mile and a half off of a 39 work the
other day, I don't think so. I'm not Nick Zito. I can't win the Belmont
off that."
Albertrani was also optimistic about future prospects for
Cocalero, who won first out at Belmont
on Saturday afternoon.
"The horse who won yesterday is a nice colt and looks like a
promising three-year-old,' Albertrani said. "Towards the end of the
summer, we could have some exciting things going on."
Albertrani added that multiple graded-stakes winning turf
filly Gozzip Girl could make her 4-year-old debut in either the Grade 2,
$150,000 Sheepshead Bay
on May 22, or the Grade 2, $150,000 New York Breeders' Cup on June 19.

Q. My annual performance evaluation was conducted in February. My position was newly created, and no salary survey was conducted. I moved into this position from an unrelated one within the same company. I've surpassed all of the job duties in my job description, and have often been recognized for my excellence. I received a 10 percent bonus at my evaluation, which I expected. The median raise throughout the company was 7 percent.
Since then, I've taken on more responsibilities, worked extra hours at home (without charging overtime) and discovered that a male counterpart (performing at half of my rate) is making $8,000 more than I am. I've researched my position and discovered that I am earning at least that much less than the median. I am putting together a pamphlet, describing what I've accomplished and will include printouts of my salary survey results. How long shall I wait to present this to my employer? It's been four months since my last rate increase.
A. Before we can address the disparity in pay, we need to clarify two things.
First, did you receive a performance plan? A performance plan spells out the objectives and expectations of the job. You may be doing an excellent job, but you may have been expected to do an excellent job. The job description only tells you what tasks you have to do. It doesn't measure whether you do them well, nor does it spell out the criteria and the rewards for meeting expectations.
Since you got a bonus, chances are that, informally or formally, some expectation was noted somewhere. Ask the human resources department about it. Discuss the overall objectives and expectations of the position with your manager. Your manager needs to know you are aware of the expectations and have the resources to achieve them. It is unfair for a manager to set expectations and not communicate them to you.
The second point to clarify pertains to your coworker. His compensation is based on the skills and experience he brings to the job, and on his performance, which may or may not be related to the number of hours he works.
But if the company is underpaying you, it has nothing to do with whether they're overpaying a coworker. It has to do with your skills, your competency, and your performance. If you are underpaid, my advice is to spend your energy working on ways to adjust your own pay, either inside or outside the company.
Now, should you wait until August? If you weren't given a performance plan at the time you started the position, it doesn't matter when your next performance review is. You need to understand the objectives regardless. Meet with your manager as soon as you can.
Good luck.

This invention relates to a versatile, multi-utility pad for use in a variety of quickly manually developed configurations by sleeping, sitting and playing infants.
Infants and toddlers of imperfect motor skills must generally be placed in a controlled and protected environment for sleeping and playing in order to both enhance their comfort, and in some cases, restrict their mobility, and protect them from frightening, and sometimes injurious, falls. Laterally enclosed cribs are widely used to accommodate the sleeping infant, and various types of pads have been available to line the crib to prevent the infant from rolling into the slats or bars of the crib, or from falling, being bruised or at least frightened. These pads are often long strips of quilted or padded material which are hung or attached to the sides of the crib after being wrapped around the inner sides of the crib walls.
A waterproof sheet or pad is also often laid over the mattress in the crib to prevent soiling of the mattress by the infant, or contact of the infant with the not totally sanitary surface of the mattress.
Playpens, too, like cribs, require protective and cushioning padding on both the floor and around the sides of the playpen.
Where no playpen or crib is available, as is sometimes the case upon traveling and visiting away from home, the infant is sometimes just put down for a nap upon a sheet placed upon a carpet, and little effort is made to prevent the infant from rolling off of the sheet and on to the carpet. Greater danger to the infant is entailed in simply laying the infant on a made-up adult bed, and in such case, a somewhat continuous surveillance of the sleeping baby is required.
The present invention is a relatively inexpensive, highly versatile and utilitarian safety and sleeping pad for infants and toddlers. It can be quickly converted to any of several geometrically different forms for use in different ways, and it can be folded into a compact shape, and this, coupled with its very light weight, permits it to be easily hand carried from one place of use to another.
Broadly described, the utility pad of the invention includes a rectangular fabric tube which has a round or elliptical or oval cross-sectional configuration. The tube is filled with a soft resilient material, such as foam rubber or polyester filler material, and the tube preferably has a height or thickness such that small infants cannot roll or crawl over the tube, but are instead confined within the space inside the rectangular tube.
The tube defines an enclosure when it is in its flat, folded out form. It has two opposite, substantially parallel end portions, each of which carries a plurality of mutually interengageable Velcro� tabs. This enables the tube to be folded double into a U-shaped configuration with one end portion superimposed upon the other and there retained by the adherent engagement of the Velcro� tabs. The tube also has a pair of opposed, substantially parallel lateral sides which extend between, and interconnect, the two opposed end portions. These lateral sides also have Velcro� tabs located thereon and facing from the utility pad in the same direction as the tabs carried on the end portions.
The utility pad also includes a base sheet which is adapted to be quickly and manually engaged with, or detached from, the rectangular tube along one side thereof so as to form a ground cloth or a protected bed sheet extending across, and closing, the bottom of the interior opening within the rectangular tube. Instead of a thin, flat optionally waterproof sheet, a flat, soft body pad adapted to gently support the infant may be used at the same location.
Midway of each of the opposite lateral sides of the tube, a pair of securing and carrying straps extend outwardly from the sides and each of these straps carries an engaging element or fastener to permit the two straps to be interengaged to form handles, thereby facilitating carrying of the utility pad, and also functioning in one geometric status of the pad to retain it in a certain generally triangular shape for certain usages.
An important object of the present invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which can be selectively geometrically folded so that it can be used in a number of ways and have various functions in the care of infants and toddlers.
A more specific object of the invention is to provide a utility pad which can be used as a comfortable bed in the home or during travel, in the crib or in the playpen or upon the floor or upon an adult bed, and in all such usages provides a comfortable, safe area of repose for a sleeping infant.
A further object of the invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which carries a soft peripheral tube acting as a barrier to infants or toddlers located within such peripheral barrier, and preventing them from rolling or crawling to the outside of the pad, and which facilitates securement of a sheet or soft pallet which can be quickly and easily attached to one side of the tubular barrier, and can be just as quickly and easily detached when the utility pad is to be folded into a different configuration, or when it is desired to launder the detachable sheet.
Another object of the invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which can be quickly and easily interconverted between a bed configuration and a head nuzzler which can be placed at the head of the crib or playpen to protect the infant's head from the crib rails and hard corners. At the same time, the pad provides some constraint upon the lateral movement of the infant to limit its rolling movement on the floor of the playpen or the mattress of the crib.
A further object of the invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which can be made up into a shape which acts as a sturdy support to help the infant sit upright, and which can be folded into a confining triangular shape to more restrictively confine the baby to the interior thereof.
Another object of the invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which can be used as a confining bed or as a replacement for bumper pads in cribs, porta-cribs and playpens.
Another object of the invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which can be folded into a compact, transport form, and which then provides a readily accessible and easily used handle for carrying the pad when it is folded into such transport status.
Another important object of the invention is to provide a utility pad for infants and toddlers which can be used as a replacement for several different types of products used for infant care at the present time, none of which products are interchangeable with the other, so that the present invention obviates the need to buy and maintain several different products.
Additional objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent as the following detailed description of the invention is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings which illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a top plan view of the utility pad for infants and toddlers constructed in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a bottom plan view of the utility pad depicted in FIG. 1, but showing a portion of the bottom detachable support sheet folded back and broken away for purposes of better illustrating the construction of the utility pad.
FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the utility pad of the invention after it has been folded into a form which provides several useful functions in the care and nurturing of infants. The dashed line shown in FIG. 3 illustrates the doubled over edge of the bottom or support sheet when it is left attached in place on the underside of the rectangular fabric tube forming a part of the invention.
FIG. 4 is a side elevation view of the utility pad as it appears from the side when it is folded into the configuration shown in FIG. 3.
FIG. 5 is a top plan view of the utility pad of the invention after it has been folded into yet another configuration to be used for another purpose, and showing how the utility pad is retained in this configuration by the use of a pair of straps carried thereon, and each having an engaging element mounted at its end.
FIG. 6 is an end elevation view showing the utility pad folded as shown in FIG. 5.
FIG. 7 depicts the utility pad of the invention when it has been folded into a transport status, and is being carried by means of the interconnected straps carried on opposite sides of the utility pad.
FIG. 8 is a sectional view taken along line 8--8 of FIG. 1.
Referring initially to FIG. 1 and FIG. 8 of the drawings, the utility pad of the invention, in the illustrated embodiment, includes a rectangular fabric tube 10. One cross-sectional configuration which may characterize the tube is shown in FIG. 8 of the drawings, and is slightly oval. The tube may, however, be circular or elliptical in cross-section. The rectangular fabric tube 10 is, as illustrated in FIG. 8, filled with a soft, resilient, washable material 11, such as foam rubber, polyester particles or the like.
In the illustrated embodiment of the invention, the tube 10 is formed from two parts or panels of the fabric material which are sewn together at the edges in the manner illustrated in FIG. 8. Other forms of construction can be used, however, but the general requirements which must characterize all such forms are that the tube be substantially rectangular in configuration, and have a hollow interior which is filled with a flexible resilient material as hereinafter described. The tube 10 can be made from various materials but must be flexible and sufficiently strong to retain the filler material 11 on the inside thereof over an extended service life.
As shown in FIG. 1, the rectangular fabric tube 10 in the illustrated configuration forms a peripheral barrier at the outer perimeter of a play or sleeping zone within the tube. In other types of usage, the rectangular tube will be folded into different configurations. The rectangular fabric tube 10 has a pair of opposed, substantially parallel end portions 12 and 14, and a pair of opposed, substantially parallel lateral sides 16 and 18.
As FIGS. 1 and 2 are considered together, it will be perceived that the rectangular fabric tube 10 includes an upper side and a lower side or bottom with the upper side being shown in FIG. 1. The bottom or lower side is shown in FIG. 2 and is adapted to be rested upon a substantially flat supporting surface as shown in FIG. 1.
On the underside or bottom of each of the parallel end portions 12 and 14, a plurality of fastener or engaging elements are secured in spaced relation to each other from one corner of the rectangular fabric tube 10 to the other. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, these fastener or engaging elements are Velcro� tabs, and are hook and loop fasteners denominated in FIG. 2 by reference numerals 20-28 as they appear at one end of the utility pad. The manner in which the Velcro� tabs function is well understood in the art. Additional engaging elements, which are also preferably Velcro� tabs, are secured to the underside of the end portion 14. These latter tabs are positioned in correspondence to the tabs 20-28 so that at a time when the utility pad is folded into a configuration of one of the types shown in FIGS. 3 and 5, one of the end portions 12 can be superimposed upon, and adhered to or engaged with, the other end portion 14 as the engaging elements or tabs carried on each of the end portions come into contact and effect engagement.
In addition to the Velcro� tabs which are preferably used as the fastening or engagement tabs or elements at each of the opposite end portions 12 and 14 of the rectangular fabric tube 10, there is also at least one of the Velcro� tabs or fasteners carried at substantially the midpoint along the lower surface of each of the parallel lateral sides 16 and 18. These two Velcro� tabs are shown in FIG. 2 and are there denominated by reference numerals 30 and 32.
Secured to each of the parallel lateral sides 16 and 18 about midway between the upper surface and the lower surface thereof, and projecting outwardly from such lateral sides, are a pair of securing and carrying straps 34 and 36. The securing and carrying straps 34 and 36 are elongated flexible strap elements which have secured thereto, fastening devices, such as cooperating Velcro� patches or tabs. These patches are denominated by reference numerals 38 and 40, respectively. The purpose of the elongated flexible securing and carrying straps 34 and 36 will be hereinafter explained and discussed.
One of the main functions of the several Velcro� tabs 20-28, 30 and 32, and those corresponding Velcro� tabs located on the underside of the end portion 14, is to provide points of anchoring or securement for a sheet or ground cloth or pallet which is to be secured to the underside of the tube 10. A sheet 42 of this type is shown in top plan view in FIG. 1 as it appears when secured in position to the underside of the rectangular fabric tube 10. The sheet 42 is shown being detached, and is in a partially folded back position in FIG. 2. Thus, in FIG. 2 the end portion of the sheet 42 has been broken away at that location where such sheet would carry Velcro� tabs corresponding to and registering with the Velcro� tabs 20-28 and functioning to permit one end portion of the sheet to be securely attached to the lower side of one end portion 12 of the rectangular fabric tube 10.
As will be apparent as reference is made to FIG. 2, the bottom sheet 42 also carries Velcro� tabs 44 and 46 adjacent the center line thereof in a position such that they can contact and engage the Velcro� tabs 30 and 32 carried on the tube 10. It will be helpful in referring to FIG. 2, to understand that in one operative position of the utility pad, such as the position shown in FIG. 3, the sheet 42 is doubled back into essentially the same position as is shown in FIG. 2, and then the end of the rectangular fabric tube 10 which is there shown in the exposed status is doubled back into a superimposed position atop the right half of the rectangular tube 10, with the doubled or folded sheet 42 between the folded half portions of the rectangular tube.
Referring further to FIG. 2, it will sometimes be desirable to completely remove the sheet 42 and simply allow the rectangular open fabric tube 10 to function as a bumper pad, such as around the periphery of a crib or playpen, with the bottom open to the mattress or the floor (as the case may be).
FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate an alternate mode of usage of the utility pad in which it has been folded in half and simply used as a comfortable head nuzzler. In the full line depiction, the sheet 42 has been removed, and the uniquely placed Velcro� tabs allow the doubled rectangular fabric tube 10 to be locked in this configuration automatically--that is, the Velcro� tabs automatically engage each other when the upper half of the rectangular tube touches the bottom half. The thus configured utility pad can be placed at the head of the crib or playpen to protect the infant's head from the crib rails and hard corners. It also can be used as a restrainer when folded in this position and placed in a crib or playpen to restrain a small infant in approximately the position in which they are placed down for sleep, and thus prevent them from rolling or scooting into a corner of the crib in which they are cramped up and confined.
FIGS. 5 and 6 of the drawings depict yet another configuration into which the utility pad of the invention can be folded. In this position, the utility pad functions as a sturdy encircling support to help the infant sit upright and not fall to one side or the other. As illustrated, the pad is folded into half and the infant is placed sitting upright in the center of the pad. It is then wrapped into the triangular configuration depicted in FIG. 5, with the convergent ends in front of the infant.
The support and carrying straps 34 and 36 can then be attached to each other by means of the Velcro� tabs 38 and 40 which they carry so as to secure the utility pad in this configuration. There is some adjustability in the overall length of the interconnected straps, and this will permit the parent to form the utility pad so as to get the degree of support for the child which is desired. The manner in which the straps 34 and 36 are overlapped to secure the pad in the illustrated configuration is shown in the end view appearing in FIG. 6.
The form of the utility pad shown in FIG. 3 can also be the form which it assumes when the sheet 42 is left in position and the utility pad is folded double as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. The sheet then has a doubled over edge at the location of the dashed line in FIG. 3. When this configuration of the utility pad is employed, it becomes a half moon-type head protector with a dribble pad located under the sleeping infant's head. This dribble pad can be an absorbent material, or simply a protective fabric to protect the surface underneath the utility pad.
In yet another modified form of the utility pad of the invention, infant play toys can be attached to the inner sides of the pad when it is folded into one of the described configurations. This is accomplished, in one embodiment, by the use of quick connect, easily detachable fasteners, such as Velcro� tabs placed on such inner sides, and Velcro� loops attached to the toys.
When the utility pad is not in use to confine an infant, it can be folded into the position shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, and the overlapped straps 34 and 36 then used as a carrying handle as shown in FIG. 7. It is also possible to conveniently and easily leave the sheet 42 attached to the tube 10 at this time since it will collapse into the space between the folded legs of the rectangular fabric tube 10.
Although a preferred embodiment of the invention has been herein described in order to permit those skilled in the art to understand and practice the invention and to use the principles it embodies, it will be readily recognized that some changes can be effected in the materials of construction and the geometry of the several interconnected elements without departure from the basic principles which make the utility pad such a versatile and widely useful structure for confining, sleeping, raising and amusing infants and toddlers. To the extent therefor that the basic principles herein enunciated continue to appear in, and be relied upon in, the construction of other forms and embodiments of the invention, such forms and embodiments are deemed to be circumscribed by the spirit and scope of the invention, except as they may be necessarily excluded from the scope of the appended claims even when the same are given a reasonably expansive interpretation.

Perfect! I was a little concerned whether or not the clips for the mirror would line up right while waiting for it to arrive....but I should not have been concerned at all. The part was perfect and half the price of the Toyota dealership.

Joe's completely autobiographical act pokes fun at his subtly dysfunctional Italian family, his own neuroses, life with a five year old, and a baby daughter, and his marriage to a psychologist (his perfect match).

Joe's acting resume also recently grew when he landed a guest starring role on IFC's Zrock playing "Cliff Brenner" an annoying yuppie with a pet bulldog, and a stand out performance in Howard TV's hit show "Show In The Hallway" playing a cop who becomes obsessed with Robin Quivers, or on his web series "Fixing Joe" on www.Officialcomedy.com which he stars in. He also has a very successful podcast called Fixing Joe where he turns the tables on self help and talk radio by asking his celebrity guests, listeners, and friends and family to help him on every episode. His hit comedic podcast aims to help others as Joe helps himself. Check him out live - within minutes you will feel like your life is perfect!

Beatrice Hempel, the main protagonist of Sarah Shun-lien Bynum's beguiling second novel, is a novice teacher and not, she thinks, a very good one. She sets pop quizzes because they're less work to mark than essays, wonders if it's appropriate to laugh when her students fart and courts popularity by feeding them chocolate, and dismissing them early on Fridays.
But she's also open, youthfully permissive and given to moments of subversive inspiration, such as setting her class an assignment to write their own reports. Ostensibly, this is a high-minded exercise in response to a book they're studying, allowing students to "give voice to their own visions of themselves". It's clear to the reader that Beatrice's main motivation for the task is pure self-interest. She wants to avoid having to write the reports herself.
Bynum tells us a lot about Ms Hempel in this short episode, as she does in every chapter (several were published as short stories), fleshing out her central character's life, relationships and personality. From the childhood games Beatrice and her younger brother play, not so much with as at each other – "servant": where she treats him as one, or "cat burglar", when he dresses in black and creeps as far as possible into her bedroom without being caught – through the way Beatrice's perception of her father evolves after he dies and she matures, to her unwarranted sense of betrayal at her mother and younger sister's plan to turn their house into a B&B. Everything builds into a complex, precise and impressively-nuanced portrait. Other characters and their surroundings are sketched and shadowy: we never quite get to know them.
Alongside quiet observational wit, Bynum uses lack of mutual understanding as a source of traditional bawdy farce: a joke about the inadequacy of crotchless panties for anal sex left me wondering if it was appropriate to laugh. Beatrice's attempt to explain to her older, Sinophile head of history why adding her mother's family name to her surname might be a bad idea felt funnier: "'Ms. Ho-Hempel,' she said. 'That's what they would call me?' Mr Meacham nodded happily. 'But'– How could she put this? 'Won't there be a lot of jokes?' He didn't follow."
Very little of the action happens centre-stage. Most major events – including Beatrice's treatment for ADHD as a teenager, her parents' separation and father's death, the making and breaking of an engagement – are mentioned, rather than played out. On the one hand, this makes the novel feel a tad static at times. On the other, Bynum has the confidence to trust her audience: there's clarity, depth and enough space in this stillness to allow the reader's imagination a satisfyingly free rein.

Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom
What an honest-to-goodness PS3 game looks like.
Before discussing reasons for our discontent, you may want to know a little about the game itself. After two relatively solid offerings for the PSP, the hack-'n-slash Untold Legends series is making its way toward the greener pastures of next-generation gaming. With a launch day release planned, Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom will serve as SOE's vanguard for the PS3. Set in a different region of the Untold Legends world than its PSP predecessors, Dark Kingdom tells the story of a land in turmoil and a king in dire need of help. You are able to choose one of three characters -- a Brute, Mage, and Scout -- as you play through a story mode that we have been told lasts around 15-20 hours per character.
While the events in the game play out the same regardless of which character you choose, SOE is intent on increasing replayability and has consciously designed the three heroes to be distinct enough to make the game play differently depending on which character you control. The Brute possesses the strength to lift the heaviest objects and, in true juggernaut fashion, needs nothing but his mighty fists for weapons as he pummels his way through enemies, barricades, and other forms of obstacles. Of the three characters, we were only able to witness the Brute in action, but we do know that the Mage relies on the use of countless ranged spells in her quest to dispense with her foes, and the Scout is heavily dependent on fleetness of foot as he engages enemies with quick piercing blows.
Fortunately for gamers all-too-familiar with the sometimes repetitive gameplay offered by many action RPGs, SOE is intent on bringing more to the table with its PS3 debut than a simple hack-'n-slash. This makes sense, as banging away at the X button for 20 hours isn't exactly the best way we can think of to proclaim to the world the PS3's next-gen greatness, nor is it the best way to justify what will undoubtedly be a wallet-breaking purchase of the system itself. With that in mind, Dark Kingdom offers a two-button combo-based battle system, thus enabling it to avoid coming off as a single-button mashing affair. You have a light and heavy attack at you disposal, and as the game progresses you learn different attack button combinations, granting you the ability to unleash more potent blows.
To further prevent gamers from growing restless with hours upon hours of combo attacks, every half hour or so you will be presented with a puzzle that can range in scope from the simple to the elaborate. One instance may call for your involvement with the perpetually-cliché pushing of the blocks onto switches. A more innovative example has you trapped in an underground chamber, seemingly helpless as water -- pouring forth from pipes arranged around the cavern -- threatens to fill the chamber and leave you for dead. The clever gamer will realize they can pick up barrels littering the chamber's floor and throw them into the pipes, blocking the inflow of water and allowing the chamber to eventually drain, revealing a previously submerged passageway. Some of the boss battles also reward the keenly observant. While you can storm right up to a boss and hack away, usually at your own peril, often times the environments and objects lying around can be utilized to make conquering the bosses a more rewarding and intelligence-driven affair.

Microsoft's confirmed that Xbox Live is now back up following a day-log period of maintenance.
Looks pretty much the same as it did yesterday, but it's probably more awesomer behind the scenes.

Super Mario Maker level The Cluttered-Chaos Calculator makes our head hurt
We would never be able to beat this level. Why? Math and uncoordinated fingers.
IGN recently played through a working calculator level created by Helgefan for Super Mario Maker.
The Cluttered-Chaos Calculator looks exactly like it sounds, only it doesn't resemble your typical calculator.
Thankfully, the creator tells you ahead of time, using blocks, what you will need to do in order to accomplish the various tasks in the level.
It looks rather hard, to us at least, but we're also extremely impressed with it.
If you'd like to try Helgefan's Super Mario Maker level, the code is 705C-0000-01B3-FE78.
Thanks, reddit.
