Deacons Fall At NC State 64-55
Feb. 3, 2013 Final Stats | Final Stats (PDF) By Gary Petit, Wake Forest Athletic Communications (@WakeWBB) RALEIGH, N.C. - Wake Forest made a run in the second half but came up short in the end and fell 64-55 at NC State Sunday afternoon. The loss was the fourth-straight for the Deacons and drops them to 10-12 on the season and 3-7 in the ACC. NC State improves to 11-12 overall and 3-8 in the conference. State opened the game on a 13-0 run and led by as many as 19 at one point in the first half. But the Deacons showed a lot of heart and pulled to within two at 42-40 midway through the second half. The Wolfpack answered with an 8-0 run and held on down the stretch. Senior Lakevia Boykin and junior Chelsea Douglas led the Deacs with 14 points apiece while Dearica Hamby chipped-in with 13 points and seven rebounds. Marissa Kastanek was 8-of-16 from the floor and 3-of-5 from long range to finish with a game-high 23 points for the Wolfpack. Markeisha Gatling had 10 points and nine rebounds while Len'Nique Brown dished-out nine assists to go along with four points and four rebounds. Neither team shot the ball that well as State finished at 38.6 percent and the Deacons shot just 33.8 percent. Wake won the turnover battle 18-13 but a big difference came on the glass as the Wolfpack won that battle 49-36. The Pack scored the first 13 points of the afternoon and led 22-4 midway through the opening half. The Deacons then scored six-straight to make it 22-10 but the Pack answered with seven-straight to take its largest lead of the half at 29-10 with 6:37 to play. The Deacons then doubled-up the Pack the rest of the way and headed to the locker room down 36-24. Wake shot just 33 percent in the opening half while the Pack was 5-of-7 from long range and shot over 46 percent from the floor. Trailing 40-30 at the first media timeout of the second half, the Deacons went on a 7-0 run, capped by a Douglas three-point play, to pull Wake within three at 40-37 with 13:50 left in the game. The Deacs got within two at 42-40 but State then ran-off eight-straight to push the lead back out to 10 at 50-40 with 9:37 to play. The Deacons wouldn't get any closer than five the rest of the way as State held on for a 64-55 victory. The Demon Deacons return home to host Maryland and Boston College next weekend. The game against Maryland is at 6:30 p.m. Friday evening and will be televised on RSN. The contest against Boston College is scheduled for a 2 p.m. tip-off on Sunday, Feb. 10.

If you read my last blog about all this Playstation 3 stuff, you'll know that I loved Uncharted: Drake's Fortune. Most of the comments last time claimed that Uncharted 2 would blow me away- and for the most part, they were right! Again, I'm not trying to write an in-depth review- but rather just share my thoughts about my experiences with the games I should have played years ago.
So Uncharted 2 is fucking great- but you already knew that. I actually finished it almost two weeks ago... I probably should have written this then- I've got all this Metal Gear Solid 4 stuck in my head. Anyway, the game is graphically suburb- especially for a game from 2009. It didn't quite impress me as much as I had expected- the glassy eyes still kinda freak me out a bit, and I've been spoiled by LA Noire, but the action sequences (especially that train part) are pretty much unmatched- at least that I've seen. There's a ton of variety too- Destroyed cities in Nepal, Borneo's Jungles, the icy caves... and it all looks fantastic.
The gameplay is improved quite a bit- though it blows my mind that people's main complaint with the first game was that the enemies were too 'bullet spongy'. That first fight with the Protectors was insane. I thought I was doing something wrong at first, but sure enough, after roughly 10,000 bullets pumped into them, they die. After you kill one and steal it's gold crossbow though, it's all smooth sailing, but until then, what a pain! Maybe I was missing something. Also... there's another fucking "Restore power to the generators!" section... I can't wait until we move past this- it's so cliché. It's all worth it though- the train sequence, the parts where you're jumping between the truck beds, the vertical climbing up the falling train- all amazing, and did I mention you destroy more helicopters than 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand?
I liked the story more than the first game too. Once again you're racing to a treasure, but THIS particular treasure doesn't curse you (unlike that damned El Dorado) but blesses you with invincibility and limitless power... unless you get too close to the exploding magic sap- in that case, you'll be easily defeated by a Nolan North with a shotgun. The new characters are pretty good- even though I could see some of the twists coming from a mile away, I still enjoyed them just as much as I did the first time around.
I know that everyone else played this game in 2009, so maybe you've forgotten all of the mystical shit that goes on in these games- but the spider effects we're seeing in the Uncharted 3 beta totally fit in with the fiction. Looking back, I still think Assassin's Creed 2 is my 'game of the year' for 2009 (maybe I just like the openworldlyness of Assassin's Creed more than the linearity of Uncharted)- but I couldn't be more excited for the next game- can't wait.
Now for Metal Gear Solid 4, which I just finished last night. Wow, they weren't kidding about that 90 minute cut-scene, eh? That game keeps going! It was great though. Man, I don't even know where to start with this, I guess I'll just start from the beginning.
My original plan was to play through each game in the Metal Gear series before playing MGS4... however, that fizzled out about half way through MGS1. What I ended up doing was downloading torrents of all the cut-scenes from Metal Gear Solid 1-3. No regrets though, I'm extremely glad I played MGS1 a few years ago, because it gave me just enough nostalgia to FREAK THE FUCK OUT when the game drops you into Shadow Moses in the style of MGS1- and without watching the cut-senes, I wouldn't have understood all those great reference to past games- that awesome Mantis bit, why they keep focusing on the closet where Snake and Otacon first met, or why they keep referring to Snake and Ocelot as 'twins'. I would have been totally lost, after all, I can't name another game series that's quite as intertwined from game to game. I'm not really sure what it is, but I love the story and characters in this series- Snake, Otacon, Raiden, they're all awesome in their own way.
So for the first few hours, I wasn't sure if I loved the game or hated the game. I loved that loading screen while installing the game! Who doesn't want to watch Solid Snake smoke for 8 minutes? Once I actually had to control Snake, I hated it! Of course I had just come off of Uncharted where I was climbing all over the place- now this damn old man can't climb over a two foot barrier. It takes an hour or two to get used to the controls and gameplay... and the usefulness of the Cardbord Box- but once you adjust, they work just fine. The OctoCamo shit was awesome- I'd switch to Young Snake w/ Bandana for awhile, then go back Old Snake.
The graphics are still pretty good- they haven't aged quite well enough to blow me away, I'm pretty sure they've been surpassed several times, even on the 360- though the amount of cut-scene in this game would probably still prevent it from appearing there. I've always fucking loved David Hayter as Solid Snake- he's probably my favorite voice actor other than Nolan North. I don't really know what else to say about MGS4, but I'm sure every fan of the series has played it already, anyway. I'm not even going to bother with a story synopsis or anything- it was crazy that they managed to wrap everything up in a tight little package, and I loved every minute of it.
I went back and finally listened to the Giant Spoiler Snakecast, and was blown away by how much they enjoyed the game- especially Gerstmann- it was weird hearing him be so overwhelmingly positive about an experience he had with a game, that doesn't happen often. Whatever, I've heard the rumors that Metal Gear Solid: Rising is stuck in some kind of development Hell, but at this point, it's probably one of my most anticipated games.
So... now what. I already feel like I started the show with a show stopper. Should I continue down that route and play something like Killzone, Infamous, or God of War? Or should I play something a little less well received, like Resistance or SOCOM... or Lair or Haze... After all, gaming for me is a religion, and I've heard Haze is the shit.

Jack Bogle, The Vanguard Group senior chairman & founder, shares his view on selloff. "It's a great day for buyers and a terrible day for sellers," he says.
Again as has always been advised by all the great investors John Bogle also suggest don't panic and keep long term in perspective, in fact buy on days where there is big decline.
On Economy: He said this time it is different. He generally do not think much about the Economy and macro environment but this time he is also worried about the economic environment. He thinks valuations are fine this time as compared to what was experienced in past declines in stock market.
His investment advise : Be cautious! but dont fully get out of equities. Have a self discipline of not selling when markets have declined

One protester says:Advertisement"They make women strip down, put vegetables over their genitals, and subject them to hours of photoshoots. No living creature should be treated like that!" Oh, it's satire, but the root of the joke rings true, when you think about the fact that, in the ad above, Nia Long's Photoshop Of Horrors is so severe she is missing a belly button (Plus: Have you seen this?!?!)

Notes & Reviews:
"This new entry into the Fidelio sweepstakes is played and sung just about perfectly... we meet the lovely-voiced, innocent-but-not-soubrette Sally Matthews as Marzelline and the young-but-not-insubstantial Andrew Kennedy as Jaquino. In their arias and duets and in their parts in the "Mir ist so wunderbar" quartet they impress with fine diction, timing, and absolutely accurate singing. Vocally, they also act very well in the opera's finale, and throughout they deliver their dialogue with pizzazz... With Christine Brewer, we have probably one of the finest Leonoras around (the other is Karita Mattila). Her large, warm voice is as striking at one end as the other, she blends beautifully in duets and ensembles, knocks out the high notes with ease, and sings the lyrical "Komm, Hoffnung..." section of her big aria with lovelier legato and more tenderness than I've ever encountered... Sonics are excellent--clear and warm." -Classics Today
BBC Music Magazine
Colin Davis's conducting of the London Symphony Orchestra and the vocal forces is so impressive that it ranks with the greatest accounts I have ever heard of this workà Christine Brewer is a great Fidelio, her big voice under perfect control, electrifying at climaxes.
Penguin Guide
Davis's version is crisp and dramatic... Abscheulicher brings out all [Brewer's] masterly qualities to the full, thanks to her big, firm, creamy voice, perfectly controlled... The rest of the cast sings strongly too, with John MacMaster a clear, bold Florestan

More than one million high school students drop out in America each year. MTV is working to help change those statistics. Their new documentary, The Dropout Chronicles, follows three students – only one of whom will graduate from high school. Each of the students faces their own set of challenges and viewers will get an inside glimpse of what it's like for each of these students.
Maxine, from San Diego, has one test to pass in order to graduate. She's three days away from graduation. Will she make it?
Sean, from Miami, wants to graduate and make his father proud. He find school boring, but has decided to see it through and try to make for the days he's missed earlier in the school year. Can he remedy his mistakes?
Glendy, from the Bronx, dreams of owning her own business. Her parents are from the Dominican Republic and never had the chance to graduate from high school or attend college. Glendy has a lengthy commute to and from school. Can she hang in there and make it to college?
In addition to the documentary, MTV will also announce the winner of its "Be the Voice" college scholarship competition. The documentary and scholarship were put together in conjunction with MTV's participation in the May 9 National Summit on America's Silent Epidemic.
This documentary was eye-opening and the statistics provided were astounding. Over one million dropouts per year, that's 6,000 every day. Forty-seven percent of dropouts said they quit going to school because it was boring. It's amazing that kids don't see the potential that a diploma brings – college, better paying jobs, self-confidence, the list could go on and on. I hope that MTV's efforts and the efforts of the Summit will bring attention to this "Silent Epidemic" and we as a nation will take notice and make the necessary changes, whatever those may be.

I'm sorry, that job is filled." "For that position you need a Master's degree." "You haven't sold batteries before?" "You are at least two years away from a position like that." "You're only worth thirty-five thousand dollars a year." Why do we put up with messages like these? Life is difficult enough when things are going great. Yet we still listen.
Many have stood between where we are and where we wish to go and somehow they have gained enormous credibility with us throughout our lives. Maybe we listen because we love them, maybe we listen because we were taught to respect these people for some reason or another. Maybe we listen because we fear them. Maybe we listen because we think their opinion about us comes from a place of experience and wisdom. We've reasoned that they really know us therefore they must be right. What if they are right? SO WHAT! What's right this moment may not be right five minutes from now. And five minutes from now you are still going to be you.
If you buy in to someone else's assessment of you then they are right about you, even if everything else inside you says they are wrong. Have you ever been told you couldn't do something only to do it and find the experience wonderful? Have you ever been told you couldn't do something only to do it and find the experience disastrous? I am sure the answer to both of these questions is an emphatic 'yes.' In both cases you didn't listen to others, instead, you listened to yourself. The difference; one experience made you feel like a genius, they other made you feel like an idiot. What we listen to inside ourselves is basically driven out of fear of reprisal. Once we free ourselves from fear of reprisal we can simply act sociopathic. But I don't recommend it. There are too many of those out there already. Still, consider moving yourself toward a dream vocation without fear of reprisal. Consider a pure freedom from all of the negative voices and signals that say, "Stop! Stay where you are! Don't pursue what you're pursuing. You're not trained for this, etc. etc. etc."
To do this you need to adopt a pattern of selective listening. Selective Listening takes place when we filter out those outside messages, usually made by Dream Killers, and press on toward our destination by listening to the inside messages coming from ourselves. Selective listening is best when we incorporate those outside messages into our inside messages and fuel our hope and inspiration. Selective listening is worst when we let outside messages take over our inside messages and quell our hope and inspiration. You've probably heard professional athletes say things like, "I love it when they boo me. It just makes me work harder." You've also heard things like, "When we hear the home crowd cheering us on, we get the feeling we're invincible." Two different messages, same motivation. In other words, they have incorporated the outside messages into their inside messages and produced inspired results. They have selectively listened. In each case they heard, "Now is my time to push myself even further and closer toward my goal."
Selective listening is not always easy. In-fact the more emotionally tied you are to the message, the more difficult the message will be to filter. But what is your alternative? How about you just give in to another's assessment of you and prove them dead right? If that's the case I suggest you hang out at the beach with the rest of the Cyanea capillata and wash upon the shore every summer where some snotty-nosed kid pours sand all over your tentacles. By the way, jelly fish have no brains---get it! Why would you let someone else determine your worth in any endeavor, especially when: 1) they are not living your life for you 2) they don't know what yearns deep inside you 3) they don't know what you believe you are capable of achieving.
Sure, not everyone who sends negative messages is trying to harm you. In fact, most think they are actually doing you some good. I like to have my English corrected when I sound like an idiot. It saves me from embarrassment until the next time I show heinous abuse of the language. We cannot stop the messages from coming but what each of us chooses to listen to our choice. I merely suggest you make that choice with prudence. Not everything is as difficult as people say it is and nothing is as easy as you think it is. When you choose not to listen and forge ahead you must accept with that choice the new obstacles that undoubtedly will come with your choice, and hopefully one of them is NOT jail, unless jail IS your desired destination. Some of the obstacles might frustrate you into regressing to your previous comforts while others, once overcome, will have you looking forward like Magellan on the high-seas. Those are the times when you'll say to yourself, "What was the big fuss about?" Okay, the lesson in communication! After all, communication is innate and often not too difficult to do when you are willing.
The Communication Process, according to any university textbook, involves five steps (some circular process or something like that): 1. a sender of a message 2. a vehicle by which the message is sent 3. a receiver of the message (i.e. the listener) 4. an interpretation of the message 5. feedback of the receiver to the sender
In the examples above we saw two seemingly different messages sent (sender) via the same medium (vehicle.) The athletes (receiver) understood (interpreted) the messages similarly and therefore responded (feedback) similarly in both circumstances. Since their interpretation was the same in both circumstances it should be easy to understand why they reacted similarly.
Selective Listening and the Communication Process aren't just about taking lemons and making lemonade. Afterall, whose feelings aren't hurt when someone tells them they aren't good enough for the Building Cleaning Crew Team? Who wouldn't get angrier than a lion when they're told, "If only you had taken Bat Dissection instead of Human Anatomy we'd let you run the Sasskoogee Zoo?" Negative vibes hurt regardless of the form they come in and from whom they came. They may sting a little less from those you hate and they may sting a lot more from those you love. No matter how much they sting, however, you cannot avoid your interpretation of the message. That is when you must ensure your feedback moves you closer to your vocational pursuit.
Your feedback can take many forms, once again I do not recommend anything that moves you closer to jail. Instead, I ask you to consider three things before responding to seemingly negative messages: 1) will I move further along the path toward my vocational pursuit by taking these messages to heart? 2) how much should I care what this message is trying to tell me? 3) do I really understand the intent of this message?
The answer to question one should always be 'NO.' While negative messages may incorporate a latent but positive message (LPM), "Joey, you're not trained for this task" where the LPM is, "A little more training for Joey might be good" they should NEVER be taken to heart. Negative messages taken to heart stay there and eat away at the hope and inspiration that drives us. Instead, negative messages should be appreciated for their LPM and then that positive message should be acted upon if the action seems worth taking& to YOU! Sometimes the LPM does not immediately reveal itself but a response (feedback) to the message is required. The best response in this situation is to confidently say, "Thank you, I'd like to take your comments under advisement." It buys you the time to consider what the LPM might be and let's the message sender know you haven't been deterred. No tirade or fit or four-letter soliloquy can do as much to strengthen your position toward your pursuit.
You should care about the message being sent depending upon how much you believe the message will inhibit your vocational pursuit. If the message is, "Computer geeks CAN'T strategically form a marketing behemoth to create one of the most profitable companies in the world," and your name is Bill Gates then you probably don't have to pay much attention to it. If on the other hand the message is, "You're 63, Bill, and you can't read the balance sheet of a $500,000 Company. I think you are a little early to be applying as Jack Welch's replacement." Then you have to consider the message a little more seriously. Chances are both the message and it's viability to you are somewhere in between. If you do not understand the intent of the message, or even if you do, it NEVER hurts to ask someone to explain what they mean by the message. This is a great tool for forcing someone to say emphatically what they were probably trying to say euphemistically. For example: you are in an interview and your would-be boss says, "I'm through hiring those college kids, they never stick around."
Instead of sitting there and trying to figure out for yourself this infinitely permutable message just sent to you, simply ask, "Sir, or Ma'am, what exactly do you mean by that statement?" When they hem and haw and finally respond to say, "Well, I am considering you because you have no college education and therefore I don't think you'll quit easily cause this is a good job for you." you now have the choice of whether or not you wish to continue the interview process with someone who's vision of the world is so small.
Of the three considerations I'd pay most attention to number one. What someone intends with their messages or how much you should care about them can often lead to analytical and emotional paralysis. These two considerations should be understood on the surface because they do have merit but should not be given overriding credence. Number one, however, should ultimately determine your choice of feedback and your subsequent actions. This doesn't mean being rude nor does it mean getting angry even if the situation seemingly dictates it. 'Bitter words indicate a weak cause,' 'You catch more flies with honey,' 'Keep your friends close and your enemies closer,' every fortune cookie creator knows these things. And why waste your time? There's always someone else who is willing to send you the message you want to listen to. Go out and find them.

Need help with basic JavaScript
I'm using TestComplete 9 to minimize user testing for new software releases. One of it's features is TestExecute, which runs your tests. I can have it open and run a test from the Command Prompt by writing one line of code.
I've never used JavaScript (or any scripting language), but I would like to write a basic script that would open the command prompt, enter the line of code, hit enter, and then close the Command Prompt. My plan is to place the script file in Windows Scheduler and have it run every 15 minutes.
I don't know where to begin, though. I'm not sure where to write it or how to write it.
Any help or useful links to where I can learn?

I don't think you can do that. JS doesn't interact with the OS, just the browser. Security issue, and all that.
You can try VB, or Task Scheduler.^_^
If anyone knows of a website that can offer ColdFusion help that isn't controlled by neurotic, pedantic jerks* (stackoverflow.com), please PM me with a link.
* The neurotic, pedantic jerks are not the owners; just the people who are in control of the "popularity contest".
Sorry, Wolfshade, you are wrong.
On Windows, you can execute a ".js" file from the command line.
Code:cscript anyname.js
Code:cscript updateSchedule.js "1/14/2013"
You can also simply double click on a a ".js" file and have it automatically executed by the "cscript.exe" (which is part of the Windows Script Host -- WSH -- system).
And, finally, yes you can use the JS code to in turn invoke other executables, using the WshShell ActiveXObject.
Having said all the above, it seems likely that indeed Titanium could do this via JS (and, yes, you can use the Task Scheduler to invoke cscript and JS, of course--I do it all the time). But why?
You could just as easily invoke TestExecute directly from the Task Scheduler. Unless the aim is to (for example only) randomly choose a different thing for TestExecute to do every 15 minutes, I don't see the need for JS to get involved here.Be yourself. No one else is as qualified.

TestExecute works differently than other programs. It knows what to open up by using the Command Prompt's input.
Any help or links I could use to figure out how to write a basic JS script to do something like this?Last edited by titaniumshovel; 01-11-2013 at 08:17 PM.
I say again: Unless you will pass *DIFFERENT* parameters to TestExecute each time, you do *NOT* need JavaScript to get involved.
You *CAN* just specify the command line arguments via the Task Scheduler. Did you not know that?
And even if you couldn't, you could instead create a ".bat" file that contained something likeCode:TestExecute zambonis 337 Z$4
You need to explain why you think you need JS to get involved here.Be yourself. No one else is as qualified.
Here's the link to WSH:
And you can see the link to JS there, as well:

Learn Modern JavaScript - http://javascriptexample.net/
Helping others to solve their computer problem at http://www.felgall.com/
Don't forget to start your JavaScript code with"use strict";
which makes it easier to find errors in your code.
100% agreed. But this was clearly what the original poster was looking for.
It's trivial to schedule a JS script with the Windows Task Scheduler in this way.
On two different sites that I manage, we use exactly this to perform various database cleanup and setup tasks. Some tasks run once a day, at night. Others run once an hour during the day. And all are more complex than I would care to try to do using a stored procedure, since they involve multiple steps that depend on each other. It is *SO* much easier to use a scripting language for this than it would be to do any other way.
It's really no different than using CRON and a shell script on Linux. Which I have done many times before, also. But the Windows command language is just nowhere near as rich as, say, C-shell on Linux. So we need something more powerful, and JScript fills the bill very nicely. It's even easier to understand then some of the arcane structures needed in shell scripts.Be yourself. No one else is as qualified.

Sorry for the late response, but thank you OldPedant for your help. I honestly was not sure what I was looking for, so apologies for my ignorance on JS. And I didn't know that I could just pass the command line arguments into Task Scheduler. I've got it all set now, thanks again.

I always eat breakfast in the morning, whether I make something at home or pick something up with a cup of coffee while I'm on the go. I'm kind of a sucker for a good bowl of oatmeal, so when I heard that Starbucks was introducing an oatmeal option for breakfast, I knew that I would have to give it a try the next time ...

Starbucks Mocha Dark Chocolate, reviewed
It's been a couple of months now since Starbucks released their chocolate line – the line that is sold in non-Starbucks stores, like Target – and I've been wanting to try several of the options since I first spotted them. The chocolates are a result between the collaboration of Hershey's and Starbucks, and after reading good things about them on Candyblog, I was even more ... Read More »
Starbucks Sorbetto and Vivanno, reviewed
I think it's safely established that I drink a lot of coffee – much of it homemade and some of it when I'm on the go. In summer, I tend to cut back on hot drinks in general and look for other options for refreshment. Last week, Starbucks launched two new drinks and I made it a point to try them to beat the heat. ...

Shortbread Lattes from Starbucks
Last week, the Starbucks stores in my neighborhood rolled out their holiday drinks – namely the gingerbread (yum!), peppermint mocha and eggnog lattes. I noticed that several stores had special announcements of another drink: a shortbread latte. The drink wasn't on the regular menu board, but merely written up on the chalkboard with the rest of the specials. My first thought was that it was a ... Read More »
Chocolate Cinnamon Bread with Sugar Crust
When I first glanced at this Starbucks recipe and read the name, I assumed that it would come out as a kind of quick bread, the sort of loaf that is slightly dense and goes splendidly with a cup of coffee. Now, I won't argue that it doesn't go well with coffee (it does), but it is most certainly not as much a bread as it ... Read More »
Starbucks recipes at home
This fall, you might notice that Starbucks is doing something a little bit different. They have always offered food-pairing suggestions as a way to push pastry sales alongside drink sales, but the coffee chain is passing out recipes so that you can try your hand at making some coffee shop treats at home to pair with your coffee. Starbucks is doing this as part of a collaboration ... Read More »
Starbucks to release new chocolates, hot chocolate
Starbucks and Hershey's have recently come togetherto put out a new line of coffee-flavored, Starbucks branded chocolates, which should be available in stores in just a few months. Starbucks currently sells a line of chocolates in their stores, but these new items will be sold at grocery stores, much like the bottled frappuccinos and coffee drinks are now. The companies are planning a lineup that ... Read More »

R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe has never made it a secret that he supported Barack Obama during his first election bid, but it sounds as if his request that Fox News stop using one of the band's most famous songs during the Democratic National Convention is a matter of principle. R.E.M. (via its publisher) issued a cease-and-desist today ordering Fox News to stop playing "Losing My Religion" in their coverage of the DNC, with Stipe adding, "We have little or no respect for their puff adder brand of reportage. Our music does not belong there."
Oh, snap. Now, you might be tempted to argue that Fox News' impulse was right, since they wanted to highlight how the Democrats first removed many references to "God" and "Jerusalem" in their platform, only to reverse the decision and add those charged words back in. However, a Redditor pointed out (via the song's Wikipedia page) that when the song was released in 1991, Stipe clarified that the song isn't actually about religion:
The phrase "losing my religion" is an expression from the southern region of the United States that means losing one's temper or civility, or "being at the end of one's rope." Stipe told The New York Times the song was about romantic expression. He told Q that "Losing My Religion" is about "someone who pines for someone else. It's unrequited love, what have you." Stipe compared the song's theme to "Every Breath You Take" by The Police, saying, "It's just a classic obsession pop song. I've always felt the best kinds of songs are the ones where anybody can listen to it, put themselves in it and say, 'Yeah, that's me.'"
You'd think that Fox News' fact-checkers would have found this relevant piece of info from over twenty years ago.

i'm building an application that is supposed to run on an 800×600 touchscreen in fullscreen mode. i'd like to have subpatches opening as pages also in fullscreen mode. this works but on closing the subpatcher page the osx menubar appears again with my main patch window in fullscreen mode behind it.
i tried using floating windows with no title or scrollbars but the "window size" message is very imprecise. i'd like the window to open at the exact same location every time. "window size 0 0 800 600" sometimes offsets my window a few pixels to the side and almost always offsets it down by the size of the osx menu bar even though the menu bar isn't displayed because of the fullscreen flag of the main window. the biggest issue is the focus though. my subpatcher pages open correctly in front of the fullscreen main patcher window but sometimes the focus doesn't change to the subpatcher window. While programming this is very annoying because all keyboard shortcuts go to the main patcher window leaving me with no way of getting the subpatcher window out of lock as there is no toolbar.
any solution would be greatly appreciated.
It looks like i found a solution for this by dropping all floating windows. Instead i'm using a bpatcher and the offset message. All pages are now in one big patch. With only one window there is no problem with focus or the inaccuracy of "window size". Problem solved!

Have to thank Mazui first before I start my rant. The subs most probably made the episode much more enjoyable than, say, if I watched it RAW. I probably would have been one of the annoyed ones who thought there wasn't enough fighting. I think this show will be best enjoyed when the dialogues are understood to the dot. Since most of us lacks in the language, I think it's best hold the watch until a sub is available. Once again, thank you Mazui. To continue
... Fantastic first episode as far as the dialogues are concerned. The most impressive line's being Shichika's query followed by his own assertion, "I'm not that smart. Something as complicated won't get through to me." And then our ninja reveals the identity of our quirky heroine as the daughter of Hida Takahito. The best line in that episode follows right about there in the form of a self observant query, "She was willing to ask for help from her father's enemy to collect those swords? Even though I'm the son of the enemy..." He then continues, "Hey, is there anyone else who knows about Togame's secret?" He would shortly declare there after that he would follow Togame because he had fallen for her. The amazing part about that portion is that how it connected the portion at the beginning along with the exchange of dialogues where their respective fathers had, and the last words uttered by the defeated. No wonder Shichika wants to help out Togame. He is also very modest when he says that he isn't that smart. To understand the scope and the audacity of the act where Togame chose to seek out help from her father's enemy need to have considerable deducing power. Nisio Isin, have we said enough about him yet? Like Kaoru, I also am curious about what Shaft/Shinbo combi could have done with this show as far as visual is concerned. However, this show will always have an edge over that combi whenever the need for good movements and choreography is called for. Anyone who has watched Tears to Tiara already know this studio is quite capable at delivering flawless fluid movement. I liked the delivery of the joke, especially Shichika and Nanami's. Nanami's observation at the end was just as comical and quite as alarming. She said if such a weak kid will be able to sustain such journey. So does that mean her feeble appearance is only a ploy to maintain the status quo? She moved quite well to secure those two from the path of those bursting shuriken. God I love Isin. It didn't go unnoticed. Her hair changed as she was holding the Katana. The reason I'm reluctant to ask why is simply because there are a few Isin reader I recognize in the thread and they just might ogle out or hint the interesting part that is sure to be revealed at due times. Btw, I'll be following this show and the thread. It also means I'll come down hard on those spoiler/hints when I spot them.

Um? What scene are you talking about, exactly? If it's the fire-covered scene of her childhood at around 41 minutes, I believe it's just the regular "hair going white from shock (of seeing dad get killed)". Classic stuff. I don't see a sword anywhere. I haven't read the novels, so this is just speculation, btw.

edit: I just noticed the screenshots posted by stuopidget. Silly me. It's the second one in his post under spoiler tag marked as "semi spoiler....". For whatever reason I thought I saw a sword in her hand which is obviously not the case.

By the way, I have a question regarding Togame's eye? What exactly is it? Shichika said Koumori mentioned something about it, but I don't think he did, so I'm lost. |

Was this show suppose to be this dull? I mean, no offense but the talking is way worse than your -insert-generic-shounen-long-ass-battle-speech-here-and-I-shall-uncover-all-my-moves-to-the-enemy-even-though-no-one-gives-a-crap gimmick. Seriously? lol The way the info-dumping was handled was terrible. I love the character designs & all but I personally found the series trying too hard to be....well, witty. The best thing that came out of this series was that ninja guy's laugh. He has such a weird laugh lol. I guess this is one of those shows that has a slooooooooow start? And picks up later on? I really hope so because so far, I'm not very impressed :[ |

I have been going through a lot of bloggers' opinion of Katana and I can honestly say that people who doesn't like it simply doesn't understand what happens when a light novel gets adapted.
I mean come on, what the hell do you expect people to do when the only thing they have to work with is dialog and a few simple character designs. I can say in confidence that Nisio is one of this generation's greatest writer simply because his work appeal to us.....and because he is not a freaking troll like other writers that take year-long breaks just because their anime adaptations were a hit. Man, I can literally feel the fanboy in me raging. Last edited by omimon; 2010-01-28 at 09:23. |

I don't read people comments on things I like (outside of Animesuki and the russian fansub forum I'm in), it's bad for my health.
Because people nowadays can't judge things on a scale and simply use two words - "masterpiece" (english for "I liked it") and "shit" (english for "I didn't like it"). God damn Internet. Shit is a waste product. Anime is not. |

It was kinda obvious for me that there would be a lot of still images. All the promo pics from the series were just pin-ups. Including the frames screensaved from the episode.
I will give it a second chance in the next episode before I drop it entirely or just keep hoping for SOME FREAKING ACTION. |

That was pretty awesome. I guess people have a point though about the visuals being kinda boring. Put that way, I guess I could sum up my feelings with 'I like the plot/characters/premise better than Bakemonogatari's'.
Maaaybe I was bored by the dialogue on one or two occassions but in general I found either the content or the wit engaging enough that it was enjoyable the whole way through. I didn't feel that the action scenes were too short at all. I quite liked the voices, and the onee-san was way cute. The character designs are quite attractive as well; on the whole there was only one part of the animation which I really bothered me, which would be the silhouette of the main guy running in the OP. That somehow seemed too fluid and stylized, going into 'cheap cartoon' territory rather than 'art'. I'm glad that for the most part however the rest of the action was suitably crisp. Anyway, I think this first episode worked great in tying up a great many connections in a single episode without leaving a bunch of vague 'mysteries' to be unveiled later on in order to keep up the suspense. It seemed like a very complete story to me, bringing together the dream from the beginning with the two mains' true identities, the sister's concerns about leaving the island and the visitors, the backstory of the main enemy with the characters' motivations, and all that sort of stuff. I'm actually pretty surprised to hear that there was controversy about how the first episode was handled, because aside from a bit more visual creativity to help spice up the dialogue, I can't imagine how it could be done better. This seems like a very solid work for now. Anyway, just one last, perhaps tangential thing. :P Dude, no offense or anything, but your brother is obviously using vehemence to cover up a lack of any actual concrete reasoning with that statement. Summing a work up as 'pathetic' or just an 'attempt' is the equivalent of childish namecalling. |

I think I love all of you! I never thought I'd hear these kinds of opinions. I've always thought that the modern anime blog is so riddled with insults as opposed to constructive criticing. Personally, I fon't think there is any anime that is completly terrible. Any anime can keep you at least moderatly entertained. Prople talk nowadays as if watching copious amounts of anime were the same as having produced their own.

at the very least, this is a refreshing break from all the crappy fanservice anime we got this season.
as for ep 1, i have nothing bad to say against it, which is to say it was perfect for a first episode, it made me want to watch ep 2 just to see how it turns out. too bad it only airs a few times a month |

Spell A DayLeo Energy SpellSpell Date: Sunday, August 5, 2001
Use the following sunshine spell to help with gathering motivation, dealing with children, giving the gift of unconditional love, or shining at your workplace. To begin, find an old CD that you no longer wish to play. Place gold foil or old gold Christmas wrapping paper over the CD and fold around the edges. Over the CD, sprinkle the following mixture: dried crushed sunflower or marigold petals, yellow powder, gold glitter, and dried orange peel. With your finger or a pencil, write the symbols of the Sun and Leo in the mixture. Allow the Sun to shine on your project for at least thirty minutes, then place a gold candle on the CD and allow candle to burn completely. Reaffirm your petition throughout the day as you gaze at the candle for a few moments. Put the CD wherever you wish to shine—your office, work room, home, or vehicle.

Visit krystal.co.ukAlthough new to needing a hosting company for my new website, I researched lots, and Krystal reviews were the tops, everyone saying the great support you get from them all the time, no waiting, no telephone with lots of options, UK full support, UK based, always a human at the end of the phone ready to give you live help! I had to try them! and in no time at all, I was up and running my own website, my website had its own email, I was guided through in minutes, how upload and download from my website to my laptop and vice versa. What was even better, that they gave me support on both my PC and my Mac! No problem what platform you work from their support people help you with anything. They also have plenty of videos. I also like the fun interface in the control panel, everything seems a game. Here I am now writing a review just the way I read about Krystal, it is true they are the best, and I must admit it does make a difference to have them here in the UK, in our time zone and not miles away, so I could explain who was my UK internet provider and this was of help for example when we were setting up my IMAP email account, last but not least the best prices as I have complete value for money, they have exceeded all my expectations. Actually one more last thing, they don't stay stuck, they improve all the time and bring their success to us, the customers, like now they are bringing the cloud very soon to us, and I can't wait, I don't fully understand it, but I know I can store things on it, I know Krystal's security is second to none, so they will guide me and I will get it then. Come to Krystal you will not be disappointing. On the contrary, you will wish you had found Krystal years ago!

Charm And Arms: China Turns Up The Heat In Asia
Stan CrockThe supreme art of war, Chinese general Sun-tzu argued 2,500 years ago, is to subdue without fighting. With those words in mind, Beijing has embarked on a two-track offensive. On the one hand, it is doling out the charm to its Asian neighbors. On the other, it is taking new initiatives to build up its arsenal, of particular importance in its quest to unify Taiwan with the mainland.
That China wants to boost its military might in order to bolster its diplomatic clout is no surprise. What is startling is the furious pace at which the country has been going about it. Since October, Chinese officials have made state visits to a dozen countries in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. On one of those trips, Premier Zhu Rongji came close to resolving a long-simmering border dispute with Vietnam. And in an overture to other neighbors, he pledged to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) that China would aid development projects, most likely energy exploration, in the South China Sea. That's in sharp contrast with earlier clashes between China and ASEAN leaders over the area's islands.
Beijing's sudden charm is meant to bolster regional support for its frequent verbal confrontations with the U.S. and Taiwan. In early December, new Indonesian President Abdurrahman Wahid visited Beijing and came away with a joint communique signed by President Jiang Zemin that supports the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty. That's a slap at the U.S., whose missile-defense plans, including a possible missile shield to protect Taiwan, could violate the pact. And at the Seattle trade talks, China backed developing nations' opposition to U.S. attempts to link trade to labor issues.
The Chinese are also buying some serious weapons. On a trip to Israel in late November, Li Peng, head of the National People's Congress, visited Israel Aircraft Industries. The government-owned defense contractor has a $250 million deal to equip a Chinese military cargo plane, originally built by Russia, with an early-warning radar system, similar to the U.S. AWACS. The radar will enable China to see ships and planes over the horizon, giving it an edge in any conflict in the South China Sea or with Taiwan. Last year, a Chinese university began developing with the University of Surrey a network of small imaging satellites. They are meant to monitor disasters and agriculture, but such satellites can have military uses as well. Britain has already sold China air-to-air refueling equipment. Soon, Russia is due to deliver a destroyer carrying surface-to-air missiles. And Beijing is discussing an additional $2 billion in deals with Israel, including more early-warning systems, Israeli sources say.
ONE-ON-ONE. The Chinese are also flexing their muscles in diplomacy. Despite his conciliatory moves at the ASEAN meeting, Zhu balked at accepting a code of conduct requiring China to deal collectively with disputed claims in the South China Sea: China wants one-on-one talks to settle territorial tiffs. That gives Beijing a better chance of wringing concessions from opponents. "It's classic Chinese statecraft of divide and conquer," says a Western diplomat.
The Chinese are careful not to appear too threatening with their recent moves. "They're in no position to carry out military actions," notes James R. Lilley of the American Enterprise Institute. But the intent is more subtle: to intimidate Taipei and China's neighbors and raise the risks for the U.S. if it repeats the gunboat diplomacy it used in sending aircraft carriers to the Taiwan Strait in 1996. So Beijing will continue to pursue Sun-tzu's blueprint. It's one war-game plan Washington hasn't yet figured out how to defeat.
