looking on down
I should take my blog less seriously. Maybe then I would actually have content updates with some regularity.
Anyhow, here are some photos which I think are pretty neat.
without a phone
Only went for 96 hours. While freeing, the inconvenience was higher than expected.
managing people
As someone still early on in their career it's great to get insight into what others have experienced going through a similar path.
Cap's summary at the beginning of his post is excellent and really connects.
I've come to believe that managing people can be boiled down to a couple of high-level goals:
1. Make sure people have what they need to succeed.
2. Help people get where they want to go.
it's been a while
So, I finally got my domain back.

Have questions? Call (800) 615-3055 to speak to a cancer information specialist.
Making an educated treatment decision begins with the stage, or progression, of the disease. The stage of bile duct cancer is one of the most important factors in evaluating treatment options.
Our cancer doctors use a variety of diagnostic tests to evaluate bile duct cancer and develop an individualized treatment plan. If you have been recently diagnosed, we will review your pathology to confirm you have received the correct diagnosis and staging information, and develop a personalized treatment plan. If you have a recurrence, we will perform comprehensive testing and identify a treatment approach that is suited to your needs.
The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM system, also accepted by the International Union Against Cancer (UICC), is the most widely accepted method for staging bile duct cancer (cholangiocarcinoma). This system bases the staging criteria on the evaluation of three primary factors:
A number (0-4) or the letter X is assigned to each factor. A higher number indicates increasing severity. For instance, a T1 score indicates a smaller tumor than a T2 score. The letter X means the information was insufficient and could not be adequately assessed.
Once the T, N and M scores have been assigned, the overall bile duct cancer stage is determined.
We understand you may be feeling overwhelmed with questions and concerns about your type of cancer and what it all means. We're here to help guide you through the process.
Our team of cancer experts uses advanced, minimally invasive diagnostic technology to detect cancerous cells anywhere in the body.

not particularly strong
while the smell is nice and pleasant (i've tried some lavender essential oils that really stink) somehow this one doesn't permeate through my room as much. i believe it's definitely good qualify, but is this somehwat diluted? not sure as the description isn't that clear (there's another more expensive lavender essential oil so maybe that's 100%).

Great product to use in a burner, or to mix with a carrier oil. So many uses for lavender, especially since this is not just for the fragrance but for the other healing properties as well. A little goes a long way!

True lavender scent
I used it to re-scent my lavender pillow. Tossed the pillow into dryer to put on low heat for 2 mins and retrieved to put 5 drips of the lavender oil before returning to dryer for another 3 mins. It smelled as good as new!

Nice Scent!
Wild has good quality essential oils and Lavender True is one of them. The scent does not smell artificial like some of the cheap ones you get online. The quality you get is what you pay for. I use it to help me relax and sleep. Scent is very soothing.

Great smell - a small bottle packs a powerful punch. A little drop of this oil helped lower my anxiety (especially before sleep). I've yet to test it out for it's anti-inflammatory uses, but I have high hopes for it. I will probably mix this together with argan oil to get the best of both products.

In writing a fraction, e.g., 2/5 or 2-5, the number after or below the bar represents the total number of parts into which the unit has been divided. This number is called the denominator. The number before or above the bar, the numerator, denotes how many of the equal parts of the unit have been taken. The expression 2/5, then, represents the fact that two of the five parts of the unit or quantity have been taken. The present notation for fractions is of Hindu origin, but some types of fractions were used by the Egyptians before 1600 B.C. Another way of representing fractions is by decimal notation (see decimal system).

Hash Slinging Slasher
on ESB
The Hash Slinging Slasher | |
| |
Residence: | Bikini Bottom, Pacific Ocean |
Occupation(s): | Fry Cook (formerly) |
Physical appearance | |
Gender: | Male |
Classification: | Ghost |
List of characters |
The Hash Slinging Slasher is the main character in a ghost story told by Squidward in the episode "Graveyard Shift."
The description is given in the episode "Graveyard Shift." He has a rusty spatula for a left hand, and has dark red eyes.
Squidward created the character of the "Hash Slinging Slasher" in order to scare SpongeBob as a form of entertainment during the 24-hour night shift.
According to Squidward's story, the Hash Slinging Slasher was a former fry cook who worked at the Krusty Krab before SpongeBob and was more clumsier than him. The Slasher one night accidentally severed one of his hands by mistake while cutting Krabby Patty meat, and replaced it with a rusty spatula. Later, when he was going home, he was fatally run over by a bus and "fired" at his funeral. Out of vengeance, his ghost returns to the restaurant every Tuesday night via the bus that killed him and "gets" unsuspecting victims. However, his presence is announced by (in sequential order) flickering lights, a phone call with nobody on the sending line, and the arrival of the bus that killed him, stopping just outside the Krusty Krab.
Squidward later confessed that he fabricated the story in response to SpongeBob's almost frenetic and melodramatic screams of terror. Later that night, however, it seemed that the events of his story were coming true. Eventually, it was revealed that the Hash Slinging Slasher, or what they thought was him, actually came to apply for a job at the Krusty Krab. He was also revealed to be the cause of the latter two "signs" signalling the Hash Slinging Slasher's arrival, with Nosferatu switching the lights on and off.
- The Hash Slinging Slasher's name is often mispronounced by SpongeBob and to a lesser extent, Squidward.
- In Croatian version of the show, The Hash Slinging name is "Jack Konobarosjek" which is parody of "Jack The Ripper" (Jack Trbosjek on Croatian).
- The Hash Slinging Slasher is a parody of slasher film villains such as Freddy Krueger or Jason Voorhees.
- The Hash Slinging Slasher can also possibly inspired by Hook-handed man, urban legend about serial killer whom one of his hand replaced with a hook much like Hash Slinging Slasher though Hash Slinging Slasher replace his hand with a rusty spatula instead of sharp hook.
- The Hash Slinging Slasher appears in Squidward's stage (B-Movie) in SpongeBob SquigglePants, which was a prank by SpongeBob and Patrick to scare Squidward, if the player loses all of their lives, SpongeBob and Patrick reveal themselves and scare Squidward, but if the player wins, SpongeBob and Patrick fall, with Squidward looking in annoyance.
- In the Bahasa Indonesia version of the episode, the cause of Hash Slinging Slasher's death was different: Instead of died by a bus crash and "fired" at his funeral, he was killed due to burned alive (implied to be due to spontantenous combustion) not long after goes crazy after replacing his hand with a spatula.
- To "sling hash" means to work at a restaurant, mainly a fast food one.

I am trying to find Rounded Edge Planking Strips. This is the type used in old Berkeley and Sig kits. Does anyone know where they might be avaliable? These were great for planking.

Columbus, Ga.
I'm wondering if other guys are thinking the same thing I am. What is rounded edge planking strips?
The only time I tried planking (a model - not lying in unusual positions) I cut the strips then sanded a bevel on the edges to try to minimise the gap which would later need filling.
Elwood: They're not gonna catch us. We're on a mission from God.
I don't know if they are made up by anyone nowadays. I would like to know myself. I have a few Berkeley designs I'd like to build.
Maybe model boatbuilders would know of someone doing it. Might not be balsa, though.
I have a bunch of them I bought from Sig about 30 years ago. I was going to use them on an Aristocraft kit control line kit of the F3F2. I have yet to get around to building the kit. I have used them on other kits back then and they work very well for planking. I would try Sig and see if they still carry them.

oh, jc means curved sheet for planking something like a leading edge. Just make your own by wetting the outside surface of a sheet and it will curve.
Considering that many of your planking strips will have to be tapered, the rounded stock is wasted. I recall the Berkeley strips were at least 3/16 thick, that is much thicker and heavier than planking needed on any control line model.
I've actually built some of those Berkeley kits. I know exactly of what you speak.
The planking was 1/8" thick. It also didn't lay as well as intended. I believe you would be beter off making your planking out of 3/32" thick balsa?
Don't know what model?
Here's a model with planking.
Owner: CFC Graphics. "Model Airplane Graphics from a Model Airplane Builder." cfcgraphics.com
As I recall, these were about 1/4" wide strips with one edge rounded "out" and the other rounded "in." Looked sort of like a worn hardcover book, where the binding rounded out and the page edges rounded in. Kinda )_______).
They might be useful on a straight, cylindrical fuselage, but when you have to taper them to follow more usual fuse forms, it just makes more work. Two tricks to taper square-edge planking strips to fit:
Sand (or cut, if you're that good) the cross section to a slight wedge, - \___/ (exaggerated) - like barrel staves, so there's a close fit to dress the next piece into.
Keep the strip longer toward the wide end of the space. If you thin the width too much in places, you can slide it towards the thin end and try to do better.
It isn't as hard as it might sound, and without the 'outie' and 'innie' curves fighting you, you can get full depth pieces - down to the formers all the way around, with minimal 'lapstraking' as on small boat construction. Sanding needs less filling, but it will need some.
A strong and quite light way to build a curved and tapered fuselage. Good work in those pix of a fuse!

I found some of the Berkley planking strips on eBay a few years ago. I hsed them on a fuselage that was planked from the nose to just back of the wing. They worked quite well.
Thanks for the reply. I think ebay may be one way to go. I plan to put a search for them. Hopefully they will come up. I am trying the method listed above and it seems to work pretty good. I think it will get better the more I practice. Thanks again.

The Shortlist for May 15
Jennifer Lopez: I'll 'probably' wed again
Jennifer Lopez may have another trip down the aisle in her yet. When Entertainment Tonight recently asked if she'd consider marrying again, she replied, "I don't know - probably. I like it. I like the idea of it, I always have. As a girl, you never really give up on that fairytale completely."
Especially when your prince is a 25-year-old backup dancer (and your castle is a $10 million luxury home in the Hamptons).
"It's a sweet relationship," J.Lo said. "It's kind, it's healthy. He's a creative partner to me. He knows what I want to accomplish. He helps me and I help him, and it kind of works that way."

CARSON CITY - Before the state Board of Examiners awarded $450,000 to the mother of an inmate who died in prison, board members were told he died from an adverse reaction to an anti-psychotic drug he was given forcibly by guards.
What never was mentioned at the public meeting was that Jamie Kline's death certificate called his demise a homicide.
Kline's mother, North Las Vegas resident Evelyn Johnson, said he was killed by prison guards and would still be alive if he had not been treated so harshly.
"I just wanted people to know the truth," Johnson said Thursday. "Jamie died because of the struggle they put him through. We need guards to take care of our prisoners, but guards have to be responsible. They have children, too. You don't want that to happen to your children, so why do it to mine?"
The 45-year-old Kline was serving a 15-year sentence in the Northern Nevada Correctional Center for a burglary and grand larceny conviction.
Kline died in November 2009 after serving 2½ years of his sentence.
The state settled with Johnson after she filed a federal lawsuit against the Department of Corrections.
Theodore Parker, Johnson's Las Vegas lawyer, said the state would not have awarded $450,000 if the guards had not done something wrong.
Kline "literally was strangled to death by the correctional officers" when a group of guards held him down to administer the drug, Parker said.
"A blanket was thrown over his head so he could not breathe. One 300-pound guard sat on his face. I would say the conditions of his death were far less benign than what you were told."
After the Review-Journal published a story about the June settlement, Johnson twice called the newspaper to complain about the account Deputy Attorney General Alicia Lerud gave to the board of Gov. Brian Sandoval, Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto and Secretary of State Ross Miller.
At the hearing, Lerud said the state might have to pay Johnson as much as $3.5 million if the state lost its case at trial.
Only Sandoval posed any questions, asking whether Johnson's legal fees were part of the settlement and whether the state would be released from future claims if it approved the settlement, according to minutes of the Board of Examiners' meeting.
Lerud told the governor the legal fees were included in the settlement.
None of the board members questioned the circumstances of Kline's death.
A spokeswoman for Miller said the secretary was aware that Kline died of "unnatural causes or homicide."
Neither Masto or Sandoval made comments Thursday.
Lerud refused Wednesday to say why she did not tell the board at the hearing about the coroner's finding on Kline's death.
Carson City Sheriff Kenny Furlong said his office investigated the death with the office of the inspector general in the attorney general's office.
The inspector general determined that no charges would be filed against the prison guards.
Furlong said it "sounds shocking" that Kline's death was ruled a homicide. But he said that the cause of death for someone who was executed under the state's death penalty also would be ruled a homicide.
"I assume in this case they were required to administer medication, and by making it happen it resulted in his death," Furlong said. "The people were trying to do the right thing."
The sheriff said it often is difficult for his officers to administer medication to inmates in the Carson City Jail.
Furlong said he sometimes asks for help from the Department of Corrections.

Pregnancy, Childbirth, and your Ancestors
by Molly KhanIt wasn't until I became pregnant with my third child that I began to consider the more spiritual aspects of childbirth.

leh1403's Event Journal
Friday March 29, 2013 / 8:00pm
The Assembled Parties
2 tickets
Orchestra or Rows A-B of Mezzanine
How was your experience?
The main criticism is that the actors were totally playing to each other and did not make the audience feel as though we were part of it. The actors never once looked toward the audience or even changed position when talking to each other. Sitting in the orchestra on the side, I only saw the back of an actor's head for an entire scene. This is a directing problem since the actors are all very good and accomplished.
The first act was slow and I had the desire to close my eyes. The second act picked up and was much better. My friend and I both agreed on this problem. The show needs some tightening up. The soliloquies were too long.
However, all in all, it was better than a lot of other shows I've seen.

On Feb. 11, the host Belton Lady Tigers soccer team defeated Copperas Cove 8-0.
The rematch is Friday at Cove. Belton, 10-1 in District 8-5A, is taking nothing for granted.
"As a team, we're not thinking about beating them the first time," said Belton senior Jacey Love who plays center-defender. "If we start thinking about how good we are, we can get big heads and that can disrupt how well we play. We need to show how good we are, not think it. That's how we're approaching this game on Friday."
Belton head coach Wendy Knight mentioned some concerns facing Cove.
"First of all, Cove always gives us good competition," she said. "Secondly, we're playing on their field this time — a grass field. We're used to playing on turf. Also, we must contain their center-midfielder Shelbie Letzer. We have to try and shut her down because she's very good."
Although Cove (4-7) is eliminated from postseason competition, Letzer is excited to face Belton.
"This is an opportunity for us to have fun," said Letzer, a senior. "Of course winning is always important. But for us seniors, we only have three games left. We're facing a great team. If we can't get the win, then I want us to at least have fun playing the game."
The Lady Tigers are having a sensational season. Belton has outscored its opponents 62-2.
Belton hasn't lost to Cove in over a decade. In fact, the only goal the Lady Tigers have given up to Cove in that time span was scored by Letzer, and that was in 2011.
Belton defeated Temple 9-0 on Tuesday. Aubrey Martinez scored four goals, Ashley Winkler had two and Bailee Boren, Natalie Russ and Love each tallied one.
"Belton is a scoring machine," said Cove head coach Hagen Streckel. "They go 100 mph all the time. They never back off."
"Playing quick is the key for us," Love said. "As one of our defenders, I'm always working to get the ball up to our forwards quickly because they're each such good scorers. We communicate well, pass well and we each move forward quickly."
Belton needs the win Friday to maintain the highest postseason seed in the district. In addition, should Belton win its last three regular-season contests, the Lady Tigers would clinch their tenth consecutive district championship (although this year's title could be shared with Waco Midway).
A Cove win over Belton is highly unlikely. Streckel said he'd be satisfied with a strong performance from his team.
"Our girls have gotten better as this season has gone along," he said. "And I'd like that to continue. That's what I'd like to see on Friday night, continued improvement.
"Shelbie has been playing very well for us all season — she controls our midfield. And a bunch of our younger girls are getting stronger as players. We're a young team and so a game against Belton can be a big help to us. When you play a great team, you can get better."
Some of the Lady Dawgs who Streckel mentioned as having improved since the season began are freshman sweeper Melinda Balades, freshman defender Bailey French, freshmen midfielders Sienna Shorey and Kaitlyn Soriano, sophomore defender Nala House and junior forward Amanda Arrisola.
"We know Cove gets fired up to face us," said Knight, who is in her second year as Belton's head coach. "We'll be focusing on playing well — right from the start."

Electrical signals in your heart make the heart muscles contract, pumping blood through your body. If the electrical signals are not flowing well through the heart, this can create serious problems.
An electrophysiology study is a test where electrode wires are passed through a blood vessel and into your heart. This electrode can record or create electrical activity. This can help find any problems with the flow of electricity in your heart.
An electrophysiology study is performed to:
An electrophysiology study may also be used to assess:
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
You doctor may order the following tests:
Talk to your doctor about any medications, herbs, or supplements you are taking. You may be asked to stop taking some medications up to 1 week before the procedure.
Do not eat or drink anything after midnight the day before your surgery, unless told otherwise by your doctor.
A local anesthetic will be given by needle. It will numb the area where the catheter will be inserted. You will also receive a mild sedative through an IV in your arm. This will help you to relax during the test.
You will be asked to lie down on an examination table. Electrodes will be placed on your chest. The electrodes will help to monitor your heart rhythm during the test. An area on your thigh, neck, or just below your collarbone will be cleaned. A thin electrical wire will be inserted into a blood vessel in that area.
The electrode will be passed through the blood vessel and into your heart. The catheter can be viewed with the help of x-rays on a screen. The tip of the electrode can send electrical signals to your heart. The signals will make the heart beat at different speeds. Your heart rhythm will be recorded to look for abnormalities. The tip of the electrode can also record electrical activity at specific spots in your heart muscle.
The length of the test will vary based on what your doctor is investigating. The test may take 2-4 hours or more to complete.
If an arrhythmia is induced, you may feel palpitations, shortness of breath, chest discomfort, or you may even lose consciousness. The medical team can usually control arrhythmias with medications, but they may need to administer a shock to stop some rhythms. If they need to do this, you will receive more sedation so that you do not feel pain.
If additional procedures are not needed, you may be able to go home after about 6 hours. However, you may need to remain in the hospital for up to 24 hours if additional procedures are done during the study.
The results of the study may be available before you leave the hospital or in the next few days. Your doctor will notify you if you need any treatment.
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
Call your doctor if any of the following occur:
If you think you have an emergency, call for emergency medical services right away.

Relaxing while at the dentist
I was at the dentist yesterday, not my favorite way of spending my time. My dentist hums all the time while he fixes with the teeth. The humming does not make the experience any easier it makes me think of the film the Marathon man with Sir Laurence Olivier as the dentist.

I recently got my Etymotic ER-6's repaired at a store in Toronto Canada and i'd said before that i'd let any other torontonians know how it went. So my pair had a problem with the jack end of the cord resulting in the right channel dropping out. So they replaced the jack with a straight gold plated jack with a spring for tension resistence. It cost me $25 or rather it saved me $54 off the the $69 etymotic were going to charge me to replace the er6's.
Anyway, incase your in Toronto and need a place to repair your cans, here it is.

A salmonella outbreak earlier this month in Muskegon County that sickened 29 people, including four people from Ottawa County, could have come from Pints and Quarts Pub and Grill or C.F. Prime Chophouse and Wine Bar, which share a common kitchen in Roosevelt Park, a statement from Public Health Muskegon County said.
Lab tests showed most cases were caused by salmonella enteritidis, a common type of salmonella associated most often with eggs and poultry. Those who got sick ate chicken or lettuce at one of the restaurants between Oct. 30 and Nov. 2, the statement said.
More than 100 interviews were done with food service workers, restaurant patrons and those who were sickened, said Ken Kraus, Muskegon Public Health director. The restaurant owners and staff cooperated with the probe. Through observations and interviews, no procedure or practice was found to be the cause.
�It is clear, however, that those sickened were exposed to the bacteria during a limited time period at those locations,� Kraus said. �There is no indication that this is an ongoing public health concern, but rather appears to be an isolated incident.�
The restaurants are family-owned � both under Harris Hospitality Restaurants.

Back From FOSDEM 2015
The FOSDEM 2015 edition has been awesome this year, the usual mix of meeting with old friends, talking about interesting topics, seeing tremendous activity in all Open Source domains, and having Belgium beers in the evenings.
Why is pgloader so much faster?
Import fixed width data with pgloader
A long time ago we talked about how to
Import fixed width data with pgloader, following up on other stories still
online at
Postgres OnLine Journal and on
David Fetter's blog. Back then, I
showed that using pgloader made it easier to import the data, but also
showed quite poor performances characteristics due to using the
in the timings. Let's update that article with current
pgloader wonders!
Migrating Sakila from MySQL to PostgreSQL
As presented at the PostgreSQL Conference Europe the new version of pgloader is now able to fully migrate a MySQL database, including discovering the schema, casting data types, transforming data and default values. Sakila is the traditional MySQL example database, in this article we're going to fully migrate it over to PostgreSQL.
Back From Dublin
Last week I had the pleasure to present two talks at the awesome PostgreSQL Conference Europe. The first one was actually a tutorial about Writing & using Postgres Extensions where we spent 3 hours on what are PostgreSQL Extensions, what you can expect from them, and how to develop a new one. Then I also had the opportunity to present the new version of pgloader in a talk about Migrating from MySQL to PostgreSQL.
A Worthwile Micro Optimisation
In our previous article about Loading Geolocation Data, we did load some data into PostgreSQL and saw the quite noticable impact of a user transformation. As it happens, the function that did the integer to IP representation was so naive as to scratch the micro optimisation itch of some Common Lisp hackers: thanks a lot guys, in particular stassats who came up with the solution we're seeing now.
Loading Geolocation Data
As I've been mentionning in the past already, I'm currently rewriting pgloader from scratch in Common Lisp. In terms of technical debt that's akin to declaring bankrupcy, which is both sad news and good news as there's suddenly new hope of doing it right this time.
Migrating from MySQL to PostgreSQL
About the only time when I will accept to work with MySQL is when you need help to migrate away from it because you decided to move to PostgreSQL instead. And it's already been too much of a pain really, so after all this time I began consolidating what I know about that topic and am writing a software to help me here. Consider it the MySQL Migration Toolkit.
Playing with pgloader
While making progress with both Event Triggers and Extension Templates, I needed to make a little break. My current keeping sane mental exercise seems to mainly involve using Common Lisp, a programming language that ships with about all the building blocks you need.
pgloader: what's next?
pgloader is a tool to help loading data into
PostgreSQL, adding some error
management to the
COPY command.
is the fast way of loading data into
PostgreSQL and is transaction safe. That means that if a single error
appears within your bulk of data, you will have loaded none of it.
will submit the data again in smaller chunks until it's able to isolate the
bad from the good, and then the good is loaded in.
Automated Setup for pgloader
Another day, another migration from MySQL to PostgreSQL... or at least that's how it feels sometimes. This time again I've been using some quite old scripts to help me do the migration.
pgloader constant cols
The previous articles in the pgloader series detailed How To Use PgLoader then How to Setup pgloader, then what to expect from a parallel pgloader setup, and then pgloader reformating. Another need you might encounter when you get to use pgloader is adding constant values into a table's column.
pgloader reformating
Back to our series about pgloader. The previous articles detailed How To Use PgLoader then How to Setup pgloader, then what to expect from a parallel pgloader setup. This article will detail how to reformat input columns so that what PostgreSQL sees is not what's in the data file, but the result of a transformation from this data into something acceptable as an input for the target data type.
Parallel pgloader
This article continues the series that began with How To Use PgLoader then detailed How to Setup pgloader. We have some more fine points to talk about here, today's article is about loading your data in parallel with pgloader.
pgloader en parallèle
Dans la série des articles sur pgloader, nous détaillons cette fois la configuration du paraléllisme de chargement des données. Une fois de plus, je vous réfère à l'article de référence en anglais : Parallel pgloader.
Configurer pgloader
Je viens de publier un billet en anglais intitulé
How to Setup pgloader, qui
complète l'écriture en cours d'un
tutoriel pgloader plus complet. Une fois
de plus, je n'ai pas pris le temps de traduire cet article en français avant
de savoir si cela vous intéresse, ô lecteurs. Si c'est le cas il suffit de
me l'indiquer par mail (ou
courriel, après tout) pour que j'ajoute cela dans
How to Setup pgloader
In a previous article we detailed
how to use pgloader, let's now see how to
write the
that instructs
pgloader about what to do.
Comment Utiliser pgloader
C'est une question qui revient régulièrement, et à laquelle je pensais avoir apporté une réponse satisfaisante avec les exemples pgloader. Ce document ressemble un peu à un tutoriel, en anglais, et je l'ai détaillé dans l'article how to use pgloader sur ce même site, en anglais. Si la demande est suffisante, je le traduirai en français.
How To Use PgLoader
Import fixed width data with pgloader
So, following previous blog entries about importing fixed width data, from Postgres Online Journal and David (perl) Fetter, I couldn't resist following the meme and showing how to achieve the same thing with pgloader.
pgloader activity report
Yes. This pgloader project is still maintained and somewhat active. Development happens when I receive a complaint, either about a bug in existing code or a feature in yet-to-write code. If you have a bug to report, just send me an email!
prefix 1.0.0
So there it is, at long last, the final
release of prefix! It's on its
way into the debian repository (targetting sid, in testing in 10 days) and
available on
pgfoundry to.

Anyone who's had a child knows that coming up with a name for your baby can be a real challenge! Neve Campbell explains how she named her five-month-old son.
"We looked through a lot of books and I liked the idea of a unique name. I like having a unique name — it's [my mom's] maiden name, Neve — and not a lot of people have it. It's nice having something special and different and so I wanted something like that for our son.
"We decided that we'd wait and see and meet him and then decide," she explains. "And … when he was born we realized we could only remember one and that was Caspian, so it seemed like it was right."
It's weird how that can work, isn't it? Sometimes you really do know just by actually meeting the baby.

There are two camps in the hip-hop universe: those who rap whatever comes to mind, and those that write their lyrics down and try to mold them over time. Kanye West claims he fell in with that first camp for his first four albums, shooting from the hip like his buddy Jay-Z.
In an outtake from Ice-T's new documentary, The Art Of Rap, Kanye talks about how his style has changed over the years. It wasn't until My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy that he physically wrote his lyrics out, and he seems to have loved the increased work of structuring the words together:
"I didn't write my raps down for my first four albums - like all, I did it from the head straight to the booth. But on this last album, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, I wrote it because I really put myself in the zone that my life was dependent on the success of this album. With that being the case, I said, 'You know what? No matter what anybody says about me, I can write something that can make someone that hates me the most have to really respect or love the song.' So even a song like 'Power,' I spent 5,000 hours writing it, and it's really the psychology behind the lyrics; it's not just blatantly, 'I've got all the powers' - [it's] 'No one man should have all that power.' It's word[ed] it in a really sensitive way that opens it up for everyone."
Wonder if he'll keep writing those lyrics out for his new stuff, especially with Skrillex's bass wobble dropping underneath. Watch the full interview below. [HipHopDX]

Finally New York dance junkies have an alternative to an August spent gazing at YouTube videos. In its second year, Drive East offers three consecutive shows per day (until Sunday) in various modes of Indian classical music and dance, whether diasporic or directly from India. That the festival runs young, with most of the performers under 40, is its promise and its risk.
The opener, mridangam master Rajna Swaminathan's local sextet Rajas, landed soundly on the promise side. Her pieces for violin, horns, percussion guitar and her own deft drumming wedded beauty by courting chaos, with the methods of loose-knit latter-day jazz at the service of a recognisably south-Asian melody and pulse.
The solo dance concert that followed was more unripe than fresh. In her early 20s, Canadian Nivedha Ramalingam has already found her legs – and arms, hands, eyes as well as elastic knees – in traditional bharata natyam. The form's practitioners, who typically perform into their 70s, can rarely sustain such brisk tempos for an hour or bound in and out of deep pliés or balance like a boulder. More impressive still, Ramalingam etched each intricate step – and nowhere in dance are the moves more baroque – with diamantine clarity.
But she has yet to figure out what to be clear about. In bharata natyam even a simple transitional step such as a backward stride signifies. The dancer's gaze swings right and left like a queen surveying her kingdom – us. How much more telling, then, is the sublimely charged moment when she fastens an imaginary necklace around her neck in preparation for her beloved. Ramalingam's fingers did not meet at her nape before she was on to the next move. And when she cupped her hands at her diaphragm like a lotus, it was again too fast: even a make-believe heart opens slowly.
But all was not lost. First, she has a real capacity for stillness – in the dance's first moments, she paused between poses as if to announce, "I am here". Plus, she could be fierce. Eyes flashing, she sent a spear into an invisible enemy with enough force to make you feel the pierce of flesh. The dance world could use more women warriors, and for that Nivedha Ramalingam is ready.

New York Knicks forward Metta World Peace believes Marcus Smart can learn from the fallout of his three-game suspension for shoving a fan during a game at Texas Tech on Saturday night.
If anyone would know how the Oklahoma State All-American feels, it�s the player formerly known as Ron Artest. He was suspended 73 regular-season games and the NBA playoffs in 2004 after he infamously went into the stands and attacked a Detroit Pistons fan who he thought threw a beer on him.
On Sunday, before Smart�s suspension was announced by the Big 12, World Peace said Smart � projected to be a high NBA draft pick � might benefit from learning how to deal with obnoxious fans at age 19, before he becomes a pro and millions of dollars are on the line.
�Just in general, I heard the kid is pretty good and a potential pro,� World Peace said. �So those types of challenges on the court when you�re playing and fans are rooting against you � that was a great lesson learned, so that hopefully when he does become a pro, he�ll be able to kind of withstand the fans that are rooting against him on the road.�
Late in the game at Lubbock, Texas, Smart tumbled out of bounds behind the basket after trying to block a shot. He was helped to his feet and then shoved Jeff Orr with two hands after the Red Raiders baited him. Teammates quickly pulled Smart away as he pointed back and shouted in Orr�s direction.
Smart was issued a technical foul and did not play the final seconds of the game.
He will miss games against Texas, Oklahoma and Baylor. He can return for a Feb. 22 home game against Texas Tech. Coach Travis Ford said Smart will be allowed to practice.
�These guys mean a lot to me, and for me not to be able to be out there with them � it hits me in my heart,� Smart said during his apology to the fan, his teammates and his family Sunday.
Orr, who goes to many Texas Tech games every year, has voluntarily agreed to not attend any Red Raiders home or away games for the remainder of the season, according to Texas Tech�s statement regarding the incident.
�I would like to take this opportunity to offer my sincere apologies to Marcus Smart, Oklahoma State, Tubby Smith and the Texas Tech Men�s Basketball program,� Orr said in the statement. �My actions last night were inappropriate and do not reflect myself or Texas Tech � a university I love dearly. I regret calling Mr. Smart a �piece of crap� but I want to make it known that I did not use a racial slur of any kind.�
Considered one of the best all-around players in the country, Smart has showed frustration more than once during an inconsistent season.
The sophomore guard got off to a fantastic start, leading to speculation that he could be the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft this year. He has struggled, however, in some recent games, including a four-point effort against West Virginia when he kicked a chair on the bench. That led to him apologizing to his teammates afterward.
World Peace said Smart needs to learn to control his energy.
�I think that emotion and that fire could be directed towards winning on the court instead of directed other ways,� he said.
The Knicks forward said given the chance, he would advise Smart to be aware of the big picture when making decisions.
�At 19 years old, when I came out of St. John�s, I was fresh out the �hood. I was fresh out of Queensbridge,� he said. �So my mentality was still struggle, defensive and things like that. I wasn�t really conscious. I�m 34 years old now. So he�s a young kid. I wish I would have listened when I was a kid to my elders or people who had my best interests at heart, and then I wish I would have been more conscious at that age also. Those are two things that, if you were to reach out to a kid like Marcus � a talented kid, future leader in the community � you would tell him those things.�
When asked if he would respond to the beer thrower differently now, World Peace�s eyes lit up.
�If you threw a beer on me, I would probably put you in a choke hold right now,� he said with smile. �And then we would get some ice cream later. But I would tell you how much of (a jerk) you were.�

Just what I was thinking. Especially if she's got a perfect score (or two) coming. Or maybe I should say he, since it's all about Mark. Chelsea's just like a magician's assistant out there. Since Kym got injured, they may find a way to justify marking them just a little bit lower.
It's been all over the internet all week that many feel this cha cha challenge is a way to push someone into the finals (Chelsea or Kirstie) and a way to push Ralph out. Hines probably doesn't need the extra scores, so that's why I'm thinking they'll go for Chelsea.

2013 Malaysian Grand Prix – Qualifying
Sepang, March 24, 2013 – Red Bull driver Sebastian Vettel has made it two pole positions in a row in 2013, going quickest in qualifying for the Malaysian Grand Prix with a time of 1m49.674s. The Ferrari line-up of Felipe Massa and Fernando Alonso were second and third.
Vettel set his pole time by nearly a second on the Cinturato Green intermediate tyre, as Q3 was held in wet conditions from start to finish. The slick tyres nominated for Malaysia are the P Zero White medium and P Zero Orange compound, which were used in Q1 and Q2.
As the top 10 all set their times in Q3 on the green intermediate tyre, they will be able to choose which compound they would like to start the race on tomorrow, opening up a wide range of possible strategies.
Pirelli's motorsport director Paul Hembery said: "We saw an interesting variety of strategies right from the beginning of Q1, with a mix of teams going out on the hard and the medium tyre. Unusually for Q1, some of the top teams also used the softer compound, in order to save new tyres for the race. But the rain that began to fall at the end of Q2 changed the complexion of qualifying entirely. With the track drying quite quickly, it all came down to the closing seconds of Q3, but the surface was still too wet to approach the crossover point for slick tyres – although it was not far off. So it was mostly about who could stay out the longest to benefit from a drying track at the end of Q3. Now that the drivers have the possibility to start on whichever compound they choose tomorrow, the possibilities for strategy are wide open. There's a difference of about 0.8 seconds between the two slick compounds and the data we have seen so far suggests that we should expect about three stops tomorrow, on one of the most aggressive circuits of the year for the tyres. But knowing the conditions here in Malaysia, we wouldn't be at all surprised to see the wet tyres out again at some point."
The Pirelli mystery strategy predictor:
Three stops looks to be the fastest strategy tomorrow, with the hard compound looking set to be the favoured race tyre. This of course is assuming that it stays dry, which is by no means a given as the average monthly rainfall is about six times more than that of Melbourne.
The quickest strategy is to start on the medium tyre, change to the hard tyre on lap nine, change to the hard tyre again on lap 25, with a final stop for the hard tyre on lap 40.
An alternative strategy would be to start on the medium, change for another set of mediums on lap 13, change to the hard on lap 25, with a final stop for the hard tyre on lap 41.
Fastest compounds in FP3:
1. | S. Vettel | 1.36.435 | Medium Used |
2. | L. Hamilton | 1.36.568 | Medium New |
3. | A. Sutil | 1.36.588 | Medium New |
Top 10 tyre use:
Vettel | Intermediate New | 1m49.674s |
Massa | Intermediate New | 1m50.587s |
Alonso | Intermediate New | 1m50.727s |
Hamilton | Intermediate New | 1m51.699s |
Webber | Intermediate New | 1m52.244s |
Rosberg | Intermediate New | 1m52.519s |
Raikkonen | Intermediate New | 1m52.970s |
Button | Intermediate New | 1m53.175s |
Sutil | Intermediate New | 1m53.439s |
Perez | Intermediate New | 1m54.136s |

Ice Cream Cake
- Special equipment: 1 baking pan in any shape. Cook's Note: A springform pan is okay.
Cold Stone Creamery Tastemaster(TM), Ray Karam's favorite ice cream mix-ins are brownie, nuts, and fudge!
"These three mix-ins add so much in terms of texture and flavor. They are great additions alone or together. The combination of brownie, nuts, and fudge somehow makes already amazing ice cream even that much better."
Ice cream cakes are a fun family activity to make at home. All you need is softened ice cream, any baking pan in any shape, and your favorite treats as the cake bottom.
Temper the ice cream by allowing it to soften for 15 to 20 minutes at room temperature. Scoop the ice cream into the baking pan and fill it to 1/4-inch from the top.
Fill the last 1/4-inch of the pan with the cake bottom of your choice. Press this layer of cake bottom firmly into the ice cream.
Freeze the filled pan for a minimum of 2 hours. Remove the pan from the freezer and de-pan the ice cream cake from the mold by inverting it onto a serving board or plate that can be frozen.
Freeze the ice cream cake again for another 1/2 hour. Remove from the freezer.
Frost with the prepared whipped topping or a soft buttercream and decorate as desired. Be creative and have fun with it!
Refreeze the cake until ready to serve. Allow the cake time to temper before cutting into cake slices.
