Shane Filan was 15 when he met Eve Brandley. She was new at the school and he was the captain of the football team. For 3 years, Eve had a huge crush on Shane but when they went seperate ways for university Eve completely forgot about her high school crush. Then, the summer after their 2nd year they ran into each other at a party. Eve confessed to Shane that she had been infatuated with him in high school and Shane admitted that in the last few months of twelfth grade he had began to like Eve.
From that night on, Eve and Shane were inseperable. After dating for two and a half years, Shane proposed to Eve. But Eve was a free spirit and didn't want marriage yet. Shane understood and so they continued dating. In December of that year however, Eve found out she was pregnant. She didn't want a shot-gun and so Shane and Eve decided to have the wedding after the baby was born.
Benjamin Noel Filan was born on Oct 25, 1993 and his parents were married Jan 16, 1994. It was not their plan to have any more kids any time soon; they were perfectly happy with their wonderful baby boy. But a year later they were utterly shocked to find out they were expecting twin girls! Their baby girls were born July 30, 1995 and were named Hailey Marian and Ivy Beatrice Filan.
Being only 26 and already having three kids, Shane and Eve proactively decided no more kids for a while. When the twins turned three, they started asking for a baby sister and Shane and Eve thought that it would be a good time to start trying again. Quickly they became pregnant and nine months later on May 21, 1999, Theodore Lane Filan was born.
Two years later another Filan baby was born. Shane and Eve had tried to make it so that Theo and their next baby would be as close to two years apart as possible and their planning worked. Jackson Elliott Filan was born on June 5, 2001 to a brood of very excited older siblings. It was completely unexpected when only six months later, Eve was announcing another pregnancy. On August 12, 2002, after being 2 weeks late, Eliza May Filan was born. Her older sisters finally got the baby sister they had always wanted!
Now, Shane and Eve were both 33 and their careers were flourishing. Shane was an investment banker and had just received a promotion with a big pay raise. Eve was a children's book editor and was planning to start her own editing company with three other colleagues. They decided to take a break from having babies and focus on their family and careers. However after almost three years they started to long for another baby and within two months they were holding a positive pregnancy test. Their second set of twins were born on January 11, 2006. Oliver Sawyer and Penelope Alice Filan were born five weeks early but their were strong babies and soon were coming home to meet the rest of the Filan family.
Shane and Eve Filan had thought they were completely done having children but after a romantic honeymoon (they never went on their first!) in St. Lucia they were expecting again. Adelaide Minnie Filan was born on September 18, 2011 just after Benjamin had left for his first year of university.

I'd like to throw in my vote, again, for a death warning.
Frankly, I was very surprised when I came back to the game after not playing for months and found that there was still no death warning. Since then I have died twice to interface hiccups and twice to not paying close enough attention.
The role of death in teaching new players and engaging people, while potentially legitimate, don't seem to be relevant to this particular issue, since we're not talking about deaths due to misplaying, nor have any of these deaths been anything but unengaging for me, at least. After all, here I am posting my discontent rather than playing, and these kind of deaths make the game feel tedious rather than fun. In contrast, when I almost beat a hard dungeon but am just shy of being able to finish it, that's when I immediately try again.

Creamy Caramelized Onion Dip
I'm not sure there is anything more useful in the entertaining world than a good, go-to dip recipe. This Creamy Caramelized Onion Dip is mine. It is an old favorite I'm revisiting after our trip to Seaside.
Mike and I had message treatments on one of the rain days at the Watercolor Inn's spa. After our services we treated ourselves to lunch at the Inn. We ordered Bloody Mary's and a Mahi Mahi sandwich, but after the bloody mary's came out and before the sandwich, they brought around their "snack of the day" that happened to be a caramelized onion dip served with amazing warm and toasty (maybe even fried...?) pita wedges.
When I made this dip in my catering days I would usually serve it with a vegetable platter. Yes, crunchy vegetables are a great accompaniment to this dip, but I'll tell you, toasty pita is fantastic.
The dip is starts with cream cheese, just as all great dips do. Then, sweet caramelized onions and a little heat from a pinch of cayenne pepper make it so addicting.
Caramelized Onion Dip
with toasted pita
2 tablespoons of butter
2 tablespoons of olive oil
1 large red onion
1 block of cream cheese
1/2 cup of sour cream
4 green onions
1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1/2 teaspoon of cracked pepper
Begin by caramelizing the onions in a saute pan in olive oil and butter. You do this by cooking them at a medium high heat until soft (about 3 minutes) then lowing the heat for about 10 minutes stirring every couple of minutes until the color changes to a soft brown color. Be careful not to over caramelize - they will turn black in a minute or two! You can do this step ahead of time.
In a mixer (or by hand), cream together the cream cheese, sour cream, caramelized onion, cayenne, salt and pepper.
Turn on oven broiler.
For pita, cut soft whole pita breads into 8 wedges. Place them on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Place them under the broiler for 2 minutes, then flip them over with a spatula and repeat on the other side. Sprinkle a little sea salt over them when they come out of the oven. Serve pita warm.

A harsh and powerful Babylonian king named Nebuchadnezzar dreamed one night of a great tree in the midst of the earth. Abundant with leaves
and fruit, the tree grew until its top reached heaven. A heavenly being appeared in Nebuchadnezzar's dream and ordered him to cut down
the tree, leaving only its roots bound in iron and bronze among the field grasses. The same heavenly being then decreed that the king's
mind be changed from a man's to a beast's.
Listen to Story of Nebuchadnezzar, 2:42 minute duration (591 KB AIFF)
Nebuchadnezzar did not understand his dream, so he called on the prophet Daniel to interpret it.1 Daniel said that Nebuchadnezzar was the
strong tree in his dream. He said that the dream was a decree from God that the mighty king who ruled without care for anyone but
himself would be driven to dwell with beasts so that he would recognize God's superior power. Nebuchadnezzar disregarded the dream's
warning and continued to misuse his power. When he failed to show mercy to those he oppressed, the dream came true. Driven from human
society, Nebuchadnezzar found himself eating grass as oxen do. He was drenched by the dew of heaven, and his hair grew into eagles'
feathers and his nails turned into birds' talons.2
1 The interpretation of dreams was very important to Babylonian rulers. Using their great skills in
astronomy, the Chaldeans (people of an area within the empire) used the movement and positions of the planets and stars in order to
predict the plans of the gods, and thus the future. Return to Text

Evans paces Nets past Blazers
Portland, OR – Reggie Evans poured in 22 points and grabbed a career-high 26 rebounds, as the Brooklyn Nets pummeled the Portland Trail Blazers, 111-93, on Wednesday at the Rose Garden.
Brook Lopez led the Nets with 28 points, while Andray Blatche, Gerald Wallace and MarShon Brooks each added 12 points for Brooklyn, which has won two straight to remain 2 1/2 games back of the Atlantic Division-leading New York Knicks.
"When he's playing the way he is the past how ever many games, he definitely makes us a way better team," Lopez said about Evans.
LaMarcus Aldridge scored a team-high 24 points, while Damian Lillard finished with 15 points, despite being held scoreless in the first half for the first time this season.
Meyers Leonard added 11 points and nine boards for the Blazers, who have lost two straight and sit 3 1/2 games back of the Los Angeles Lakers for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference.
Aldridge opened the contest with a jumper, but the Nets responded with a 16-2 push and never looked back. Lopez capped the outburst with a three-point play, giving Brooklyn a double-digit lead it would not relinquish.
The Nets led by 20 after 12 minutes and opened the second on a 9-0 sprint to take 46-17 advantage just under two minutes in. Portland got as close as 19 late in the half, but Brooklyn was able to push the margin to 64-41 at the break.
The Blazers never threatened in the third and trailed by as many as 30 after Evans converted a three-point play with 2:32 left.
Brooklyn maintained a 95-69 cushion after three quarters and led by 25 early in the fourth before the Blazers stormed back with an 11-0 surge that Luke Babbitt capped with a 3-pointer to make it 101-87 with six minutes left.
Portland never got closer though, as the Nets were able to weather the storm by scoring the next six points before cruising to victory down the stretch.
"That was obviously very discouraging the way we came out and played at the beginning of the game," Portland coach Terry Stotts said. "For whatever reason, we just weren't there."
Game Notes
Brooklyn improved to 19-3 when scoring 100-plus points ... The Nets improved to 20-15 as the visitor this season, giving them 20-road wins in a season for the first time since 2005-06 ... Brooklyn took the first meeting against Portland this season, a 98-85 decision on Nov. 25 in Brooklyn ... Portland fell to 22-12 at home.

NOTE: This page refers to an older version of Tapestry. For current information on Tapestry's AJAX support, see http://tapestry.apache.org/ajax-javascript.html.
What "ajax" means to Tapestry
There are many different scenerios and design choices for using ajax within web applications, but I think most of them can still be condensed into three basic types of communication:
Asynchronous client requests with textual/xml return data from server. These are the most common types of requests. Ones that tacos primarily uses for almost all of its operations. At it's core it could be used for a million different things. Tacos uses this paradigm to manipulate what looks like a normal tapestry request into an xml document that is parseable and manageable on the client.
Asynchronous JSON requests - These are requests like any other, but expect a very specific type of data returned from the server, data that is validily structured as http://json.org data. Such a structure describes a javascript object.
Comet/Server data push - The term originally coined by alex from http://dojotoolkit.org, describes the process of pushing data from the server to a client. This enables a slightly more dynamic user interface that doesn't involve having to constantly poll servers for new data, but it has the added drawback of having long lived open connections.
Asynchrnous Requests
These types of requests can be anything that a normal http request/response can be, except that in the case of tapestry you commonly want to invoke or update a certain portion of your page dynamically. An example below will illustrate this usage.
This example is a scenerio where we have a PropertySelection list that allows a user to select a "Project" that they would like to work on, when they make a selection in the list we would like the server to update another component on our page, "ProjectDetails". This component displays detailed meta information about our chosen project. Since the UI is such that we would like to not have to refresh the entire page whenever one of these selections is made we will use "ajax" to refresh only the "ProjectDetails" component when the selection is made. Here is a visual example:
In the sample given we will have to create a tapestry request that only renders the output from the ProjectDetails component. In it's most basic form that would look something like:
Tacos ASYNC Requests
In order to get the behaviour of "selecting" a particular option on a PropertySelect component, as well as refreshing a specific component on a page - all with tapestry correctly remembering whatever state was selected on the component in both server and client - we must create a valid request. Using dojo this is not very hard. We can do something like this to the PropertySelect html to cause the initial request to go out:
<select name="projectSelect" > <item value="0">Select</item> <item value="proj1">Project 1</item> <item value="proj2">Project 2</item> <item value="proj3">Project 3</item> </select> <script type="text/javascript"> dojo.event.connect(dojo.byId("projectSelect"), "onchange", function() { dojo.io.bind({ url: "http://localhost:8080/app?service=direct&component=projectSelect&listener=selectProject", load:function(data) { //do something with returned data here } }); </script>
This sort of request, at least in tacos, would return a response to the client looking somewhat like:
<xml> <response-element id="projectSelect"> <select name="projectSelect" > <item value="0">Select</item> <item value="proj1" selected="true">Project 1</item> <item value="proj2">Project 2</item> <item value="proj3">Project 3</item> </select> </response-element> <response-element id="scriptblock"> dojo.event.connect(dojo.byId("projectSelect"), "onchange", function() { dojo.io.bind({ url: "http://localhost:8080/app?service=direct&component=projectSelect&listener=selectProject", load:function(data) { //do something with returned data here } }); </script> </response-element> </xml>
As you can see, all of the same issues/solutions put in place for html content have to be similarly applied to javascript content. If you allowed the Body component to render the javascript block for a typical response you would get an extroidinary amount of script back in your response that had nothing to do with the components you were trying to refresh. A new interface needs to be added in that will allow similar "filtering" to occurr with javascript blocks, on a per component basis, as with normal html content.
What's happening on the server?
In it's most basic form, tapestry as a whole generally does the following.
Takes an incoming HttpServletRequest and sets up all of the core tapestry infrastructure, such as hivemind injectable objects for WebRequest/etc.
Looks at the parameters for the incoming request, ie "&service=direct" to determine which service should handle the request. In this case we want the DirectService, which is more or less the staple of most system requests.
The direct service reads in the request parameters and invokes the "listener" that was specified in the request, once that listeners method has been invoked it then hands off the response to the ResponseRenderer service.
The ResponseRenderer sets up the actual IMarkupWriter which is tied to the OutputStream being written back to the client browser (in most cases).
Once the IMarkupWriter is setup all request flow is handed off to the IRequestCycle object via IRequestCycle.renderPage(IPage page); (I left out the part about pages, but suffice it to say that the DirectService is able to determine which page a particular response should go to and sets it up accordingly )
The Page object, which probably in 90% of cases is an AbstractPage instance then starts to render itself. This rendering is where ajax requests start to break down.
What we see with Page/Component rendering is a container/child sort of rendering model, where nothing can be known about a particular containers children save by the container itself. So, rendering is handled by components directly. Via a combination of IRender.render() IComponent.renderComponent(writer, request) the chain flows down and down through all of the contained components until the entire response is written.
The problem with this for ajax is that we don't want all the components to render. We only want one, or maybe two or three or whatever. Replacing the IMarkupWriter instance with one of your own doesn't do it because the IMarkupWriter is dumb in that it only knows how to write textual data back, it doesn't know or care whether its currently rendering component A or component Z. It writes whatever markup it's told and that's it.
The tacos solution to this problem was to sort of "hot swap" IMarkupWriters in the rendering chain, depending on whether a component was requested to have it's content renderd by the client. This was achieved by creating two markup writers for every request. One NullMarkupWriter, which when used throws out all of the content that is written to it, and another valid IMarkupWriter that is used to write valid content to the client. The only problem left was how to switch out the correct writer depending on the component being rendered?
The solution was to use javassist to extend "every" component in the system, whether it is tapestrys compnoent or your own custom component via subclassing any object that .isAssignableFrom(AbstractComponent.class). The renderComponent() method was enhanced to look something like this:
// The writer being passed in here is a NullMarkupWriter by default in ajax responses public void renderComponent(IMarkupWriter writer, IRequestCycle cycle) { if (!ajaxRequest.isValidRequest()) super.renderComponent(writer, cycle); if (ajaxRequest.componentWasRequestedToRefresh(this)) super.renderComponent(ajaxRequest.getAjaxWriter(), cycle); }
That's the core of the response model. There are lots of other ways to do it and nuances depending on the problem being solved (ie dealing with javascript, doing pre/during/after response javascript effects/etc..).
The CORE Problem
The largest problem with all of this is the fact that components directly control the IMarkupWriter instance being used to render the response. There are no extension points or other known ways to control which components responses go back to the client and which don't. Adding in new renderComponent() logic that handles JSON responses for instance creates even more problems, because in those instances the IMarkupWriter interface isn't even remotely close to resembling the structure of a JSON response.
The Solution
In order to start getting a better handle on controlling the response, as well as managing the fact that one response might require calling renderComponent(IMarkupWriter, IRequestCycle) and another might require renderComponent(IJSONWriter, IRequestCycle) I have introduced a new object called ResponseBuilder.
This is what the ResponseBuilder interface looks like, which is remarkably similar to ResponseRenderer:
public interface ResponseBuilder { void renderResponse(IRequestCycle cycle); }
The difference is that the ResponseBuilders that are available are configured from a hivemind configuration point using a Factory to choose the type of builder that is used in a response depending on the header and parameters receieved in a request. For instance, we now currently have a DefaultResponseBuilder and a JSONResponseBuilder. The factory uses a configured list of ResponseContributor entries which are responsible for reading in request meta information and determining which type of response should be given.
The end result might be an object looking like this for default responses:
public class DefaultResponseBuilder implements ResponseBuilder { protected IMarkupWriter _writer; public DefaultResponseBuilder(IMarkupWriter writer) { ... } public void renderResponse(IRequestCycle cycle) { IPage page = cycle.getPage(); page.renderResponse(this, cycle); } }
That in and of itself isn't very new a concept to put past, as it's more or less already happening that way. The new JSONResponseBuilder does however start to change things.
public class JSONResponseBuilder implements ResponseBuilder { protected IJSONWriter _writer; public JSONResponseBuilder(IJSONWriter writer) { ... } public void renderResponse(IRequestCycle cycle) { IPage page = cycle.getPage(); page.prepareForRender(); page.renderResponse(this, cycle); } }
Mirky Waters
The previous solution section outlined what I believe is a good start to the steps needed to enable some of the functionality these ajax/json responses require. Namely being able to either suppress the output in a render cycle or perform entirely different output(as in the case with JSON responses).
An AJAXResponseBuilder implementation would need to work itself into the render() logic in such a way that it could either internally choose to render or not render particular components, or have methods available allowing components to choose or not choose to render themselves. I would rather have the logic be internal to the ResponseBuilder as this is one of the largest gripes I have with tacos currently. It makes it very unclean to do things like this:
renderComponent(IMarkupWriter writer, IRequestCycle cycle) { AjaxResponse ajax = getAjaxResponse(); //injected if (!ajax.isAjaxResponse()) { renderJavaScriptOutput(); } if (ajax.isAjaxResponse() && somethingFooIsTrue) { ajax.addPreEffectsJavascript("javascript:doPreEffects()"); } }
The example given is completely made up but more or less shows all of the "checks" that have to go on to correctly maintain server state with client browser state. It would be much nicer to ultimately have something along the lines of:
public class AjaxResponseBuilder implements ResponseBuilder { protected IMarkupWriter _writer; protedted IMarkupWriter _nullWriter = new NullMarkupWriter(); protected List updateComponentIds; public AjaxResponseBuilder(IMarkupWriter writer) { ... } public void renderResponse(IRequestCycle cycle) { IPage page = cycle.getPage(); page.renderResponse(this, cycle); } public void renderComponent(IComponent component, IRequestCycle cycle) { if(updateComponentIds.contains(component.getId()) { component.renderComponent(_writer, cycle); } else component.renderComponent(_nullWriter, cycle); if (updateComponentIds.contains(component.getId()) { component.renderScriptContributions(_writer, cycle); } //etc.... } }
The basic idea is to take out the logic that was previously done via javassist contributions, and at the same time add a layer of additional logic. Such as pre/during/post javascript contributions to the "client request render cycle", as well as a lot of other things I'm sure I'm forgetting.

I use an iPhone
Also, the ability to toggle between meters and feet would be nice.
2. I would probably pay up to $5 for the app, you could do what many apps do is to have two versions, one with ads one without. the app seemed to go out and ping the network even if it was blocked or at least that is what it seemed to do. To be fair I do understand your reasoning. this is not a major issue, just a nice to have etc.
a custom CoCAgreed on that. Will put it in the To-Do Feature List. Thnx!

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650Ti Boost Review
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650Ti Boost Introduction:
Last year NVIDIA delivered the GTX 650Ti to provide a product for gamers that wanted to play the latest games but did not necessarily want to break the bank to do it. For that there is the GTX 690 and just released GTX Titan. The GTX 650Ti, meanwhile, proved to be capable of playing the latest DirectX 11 games with some of the eye candy on at a really attractive $150 price point. This made it an attractive upgrade path for those users stuck in older hardware not capable of meeting the needs of games running in a DX 11 environment. NVIDIA's product stack covered pretty much every price/performance point from the top to the bottom, yet there seems to be room in between the GTX 650Ti and the GTX 660 for a new player in the game: the GTX 650Ti Boost.
Instead of using the GK107 core like the GTX 650Ti, the GTX 650Ti Boost (confused yet?) is based on the GK106 core that supports a boost clock. That alone is going to boost (pun intended) the performance of the GTX 650Ti Boost to a higher level. Additionally NVIDIA added another gigabyte of VRAM for a total on board of 2GB running through a wider bus for increased memory bandwidth. SLI functionality was added so that in the future doubling your FPS is just another GTX 650 Ti Boost away. All to deliver a card that will play the latest games using high settings at 1080p resolutions with playable frame rates. Something last year's offering struggles to do. What good is a video card that can't give you to the FPS and eye candy for the price you need?
After AMD just launched the HD 7790 that flat outperformed the GTX 650Ti, is the GTX 650Ti Boost the solution to that problem? And at the right price point? We shall see.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650Ti Boost Closer Look:
Although NVIDIA's board partners each have their own non-reference boards available, we will be looking at the reference GTX 650Ti Boost. Comparing the GTX 650Ti Boost to the GTX 650Ti visually you get the sense that NVIDIA stepped up its game and used a larger PCB to house the power circuitry and additional gigabyte of VRAM on the card. Face on the GTX 650Ti Boost looks identical to the GTX 670 minus the additional SLI connection. From the back side the similarities continue with the short PCB and extended shrouding for the blower style fan. Measuring 9.5 inches in length the GTX 650Ti Boost will fit in a vast majority of chassis on the market. The PCB alone measures 6.75 inches so the non-reference cards will offer up even fewer challenges in smaller form factor PCs. The GTX 650Ti Boost supports the PCIe 3.0 standard with backwards compatibility for use in older hardware. Along the top of the card we see the now familiar GeForce GTX logo in NVIDIA green that shouts this is a gaming card.
Display connectivity includes a pair of Dual Link DVI ports, a single full size DisplayPort connection, and an HDMI 1.4a port that combine to support surround in a 3+1 configuration. All of the thermal load generated by the GK106 core and 2GB of memory is pushed out the venting on the mounting bracket. Traditionally this solution ends up with noise concerns but NVIDIA manages to keep this in check. The back end of the GTX 650Ti Boost is sealed up forcing all of the intake air through the heat sink on the core and out the vent.
SLI support is available on the GTX 650Ti Boost where it was not on the GTX 650Ti. Up to two GTX 650Ti Boost cards can be combined in an SLI configuration to significantly increase game play FPS and/or the visual quality settings used. A single PCIe 6-pin power connection is used to supply the additional power to the card. Total board power is 134 watts; well within the scope of the minimum power supply requirement of 450 watts.
The cooling solution employed on this card is again eerily similar to that used on the GTX 670 albeit with a smaller copper block in the base of the heat sink. The heat sink is a square block using a copper/aluminum base and aluminum fin array to discharge the thermal load from the GPU core. Along the top and sides of the heat sink are strips that seal off the open spaces between the heat sink and shroud to force as much of the airflow generated by the blower style fan through the heat sink instead of around it. Without a heat sink on it the power supply circuit uses the airflow through the shroud to cool the components.
NVIDIA's GTX 650Ti Boost is based on the GK106 Kepler core. This 2.54 billion transistor, 28nm core is equipped with four streaming multiprocessors each with 192 CUDA cores spread out between either two or three Graphics Processing Clusters, 64 texture units, 24 ROP units, 384KB of shared L2 cache and 2GB of GDDR5 memory running through a 3x64-bit (192-bit) bus. The GTX 650Ti did not support a Boost clock, which is a change here with the GTX 650Ti Boost. Clock speeds see an increase from 925MHz to a 980MHz base on the core with a boost clock of up to 1033MHz when kept within the temperature and power limits of the core. An increase in the frame buffer size from 1GB to 2GB with an increase in speed from an effective 5400MHz to 6008MHz are also points of difference on the GTX 650Ti Boost. That's not where the differences end with increases in the L2 cache size, ROPs, and memory bus width. For this card NVIDIA has chosen to go with Samsung K4G20325FD-FC03 VRAM rated at 1500MHz (6000MHz effective).
Reference versions are good, solid performing cards but some times we want a little more. Fortunately NVIDIA's board partners have have that need covered right out of the gate with some non reference versions that offer improved cooling and power circuits, not to mention having a lot more visual appeal. ASUS, MSI, EVGA, Galaxy, and Zotac are some of the players with offerings.
Knowing what AMD just delivered for consumers it ought to prove interesting to see just where NVIDIA places its next bet to urge consumers to step up to the latest graphics card in the sub $200 range.

Incoming 1Ls / Re: Best Ultraportable Laptop Notebook for law school?« on: March 03, 2007, 03:06:27 AM »
I have a Dell 710m and I like it. The keyboard's a bit small though so if I'm typing too fast sometimes I'll flub up, but it's manageable (its successor, the M1210 is the same size I believe). I got it later half of junior year, so I've had it for about a year now. I also got it for cheap (<$800 total) when Dell had one of its year end fire sales. Of course, since it was so cheap, there was a catch: the specs are a bit old/weak. Certainly nothing ancient, but they were probably already outdated a year before I bought it. I'm also starting to run out of harddrive space (<10GB left) and the memory doesn't seem to be enough at times when I'm multitasking/heavy using.External HD + RAM upgrade, get another year or two out of that thing.
Should I be thinking about investing in a new laptop now or later? I'm sure I wont be finishing LS with my current comp, but I know it's still got some decent use left (but still probably for only about a year). Is there heavy laptop-using in LS? or is it basically only for in-class note-taking/paper-writing? Hopefully there won't be any need for Windows Vista, b/c I know my current lap is nowhere capable-enough for that.

When "Savage Love" columnist Dan Savage launched "It Gets Better" — a viral campaign intended to lift the spirits of distraught gay teens and thwart additional suicide attempts — he quoted the late Harvey Milk: "You gotta give 'em hope."
It's a sentiment I myself espoused when I decided, after the suicide deaths of two 11-year-old boys last year, to write about my own experience with homophobic-centered bullying for The Root. At the time, I had never told my mother that I was gay. After I explained this fun fact to my thoughtful editor, she worried about whether I wanted to really go through with the piece, given the potential ostracism I might face after its publication.
Ultimately, I moved forward with my plans and finally had the conversation I had put off for far too long. It didn't go as well as I had wanted it to, but the outpouring of e-mails I received from parents and teens made up for it. I was convinced that I gave people what they needed: hope. A year-and-a-half later, I increasingly worry whether relying on hope will be a hindrance in combating the rampant homophobia that causes grief in the lives of so many.
Indeed, hope can only go so far.
Not far enough for Joseph Jefferson, a 26-year-old gay youth activist in New York who unexpectedly took his own life on Oct. 23. On his Facebook wall, Jefferson wrote: "I could not bear the burden of living as a gay man of color in a world grown cold and hateful towards those of us who live and love differently than the so-called 'social mainstream.' "
All too often, gays — particularly those of color — are reminded of how much resentment toward them exists. It's easy to grow pessimistic about the chances of one's situation improving when so many signs suggest otherwise.
In a survey released by the Public Religion Research Institute, two out of three Americans believe that gay people commit suicide at least partly because of messages coming out of churches and other places of worship. It's no secret that much of the gay backlash in the black community stems from the prejudices that church members have been conditioned to perpetuate. Places that should provide solace from intolerance are now more than ever the centers of it.
There's a peculiar irony in this, given religion's role in justifying slavery and legalized segregation. By now, black people should be well aware of how bastardized theology can be used against others. When will some of us stop repeating that mistake?
I can tell teens that they might not have to hear the word "faggot" in their adult lives as often as they do in their teenage years, but how many of us are willing to take on clergymen like Bishop Eddie Long the next time it's said that gays deserve to die?
Similarly, politicians can tell gays that things will get better, but they fail to touch on how their idea of better comes with a heavy set of limitations — as in, "It gets better, but not if you want to serve your country honestly or have your love recognized legally." When gays aren't being patronized, there are plenty of politicians — mainly Republicans, but some Democrats — ready to vilify us for the sake of winning an election.
We can't preach against bullies in the hallways if we're not denouncing the ones in the pulpit and political arena. Even on the pop-cultural front, websites like Media Take Out and Bossip routinely play off homophobia for the sake of securing hits. These banal posts may help some of you get your jollies as you try to pass your workday, but they only reinforce negative attitudes about gay people.
These are the realities that gays face each and every day. And these realities surely influence gay youths more than the advice of people (especially older people) who aren't experiencing what these kids go through all the time.
We most certainly can give those in despair the hope that their lives will get better, but it will take much more than a few cheerful words to ensure that it actually does.

By Mariano Castillo, CNN
(CNN) - When Erika Andiola's mother and brother were detained by immigration agents this month, she jumped to action.
She summoned the help of undocumented youths like herself, known as DREAMers, and within hours, immigration officials were flooded with dozens of phone calls.
Andiola's mother and brother were released.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials say the detention of the pair and their eventual release had nothing to do with Andiola's activism.
But that does not dampen her spirit. As far as she is concerned, the DREAMers snatched her mother from the brink of deportation.
"For us to get them to do that, it takes a lot of pressure," she said.
Her work, along with other DREAMers, has increasingly become a powerful voice shaping discussions on immigration reform, which President Obama has vowed to pass in his second term.
Dubbed DREAMers, their name is derived from the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act, which, if passed, would have granted some undocumented immigrant youth legal status in return for attending college or joining the military.
In 2009, DREAMers knocked on doors and begged for support of the DREAM Act, a bill that would have provided a path to citizenship for certain youth who came to the United States as children and live in the country illegally.
Today, the movement is enjoying a certain amount of clout.
Andiola tapped into the DREAMer network to aid in the return of her mother and brother. But her activism also got her a job with newly elected Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Arizona.
Last summer, the Democrats gave the DREAMers their biggest stage, at the Democratic National Convention. Benita Veliz became the first undocumented immigrant to give a speech at the convention, sharing her story of a high achiever with limited opportunities because of her status.
It's not just Democrats who are listening.
When Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, announced a new immigration proposal this month, he made a point to mention that he had consulted with DREAMers.
As Rubio began working on legislation to address the issue, his staff bounced the proposals by DREAM activists, said the senator's press secretary, Alex Conant.
"We believe there is broad support for letting people who came to the U.S. at a young age, grew up here and are undocumented through no fault of their own stay in the country," Conant said. "We will continue to seek their input as we work on a legislation to legalize their status."
State and national conferences are bringing undocumented immigrant youths together and introducing them to the halls of power.
"The power has been there, what is happening now is that that power is being showcased," said Jose Luis Zelaya, a graduate student at Texas A&M University and DREAM activist.
He says the movement is more organized than before, thanks to partnerships with more experienced organizations, and years of lobbying.
"We have planted a seed and hard work and dedication," Zelaya said. "Maybe a year ago we didn't see the fruit, but only because the tree was still growing."
In 2009 and 2010, Zelaya was among those who lobbied Congress for the DREAM Act. Back then, Zelaya remembers the activists "running from coast to coast, looking for recognition."
The bill ultimately failed, but the DREAM activists did not lose their momentum, and continued to lobby. Last year, when President Obama issued an executive order granting a temporary reprieve for eligible undocumented youth to apply for a two-year work permit, it gave the group credibility, they say.
Obama begins immigration push with trip to Vegas
The president's deferred action policy, similar to the proposed DREAM Act, "gave us breathing room," Zelaya said.
It also raised the profiles of the activists.
As Zelaya waited for his work permit, he began crocheting to make ends meet. He was invited to Miami to talk about his crochet business on Univision. The hosts surprised him on camera with his work permit.
Off camera, some DREAMers find themselves juggling schedules filled with speeches, interviews and conferences at the state and national level.
Now, tracking down leaders like Andiola requires going through a press officer.
Many believed the DREAMers were fighting for a lost cause after the DREAM Act didn't get the needed votes, Andiola said. But they persisted. "We've been able to prove a lot of people wrong," she said.
Their next challenge is to lobby for immigration reform that would go beyond border security and help keep immigrant families from being separated, they say.
To their critics, who bristle that a group of undocumented immigrants have found an audience among politicians, activists and journalists, Andiola advises that they, too, organize.
"We really want to empower the community, not just the undocumented community," she said.

From sloper to A-line sleeveless top
Added Jun 16, 2011
by zrinka
Venice, Californ...
After I created the slopers (see previous project) the next step was to try and make something out of it. I decided to make a pattern for a simple A-line sleeveless top. Should not be that difficult, right?
So, here I will describe all the steps I took to create this top. From drafting the pattern, to basting, to making modifications. I will not go into sewing details, as the point of this project is patternmaking, but in terms of sewing this should be a simple project.
Let me know what you think, what I missed, what I did wrong…

sooooo… could i just extend the length and have a pattern for a simple a-line dress?

Yes, you should be able to to that. Adding length should not affect the fit in the bodice. However, it will be wide at the hemline, obviously, the longer the dress, the wider the hemline. If you wish to narrow it a bit, without affecting the overall design, you could take in 2 cm at each side at the hemline – the pattern hemline, not the new one after lengthening.

This is so lovely, thank you. I was actually searching for a simple pattern for a dress!

EMR Only Doctors, Average EMR Price, Most Wired Hospitals, and Healthcare Social Media
John Lynn is the Founder of the HealthcareScene.com blog network which currently consists of 10 blogs containing over 8000 articles with John having written over 4000 of the articles himself. These EMR and Healthcare IT related articles have been viewed over 16 million times. John also manages Healthcare IT Central and Healthcare IT Today, the leading career Health IT job board and blog. John is co-founder of InfluentialNetworks.com and Physia.com. John is highly involved in social media, and in addition to his blogs can also be found on Twitter: @techguy and @ehrandhit and LinkedIn.
Before I get to my Twitter round up of EMR and Health IT tweets, I thought at least a few of you would be interested in a short update on my previous post.
Mom and baby are home and doing really well. We're still adapting to life with 4 children, but we feel really blessed. Thanks to everyone for the kind words on social media. Of course, how could I mention my new baby boy and not provide a picture of Gianluca:
Now on to some interesting EMR and Health IT tweets:
Internet connection at work went down today. For a while I went back to pen and paper for writing notes. It felt nice.
— Alex Zaphiris, MD (@Dr_Zaphiris) July 16, 2012
This wasn't the tweet I meant to embed, but it seems that Dr. Zaphiris must have deleted the one I was going to embed. It talked about how Dr. Zaphiris had used EMR for so long she didn't remember paper (or something like that). It made me wonder how many doctors today have only known EMR charting. Certainly it's not a majority or even close, but I bet the number is higher than most would realize. If you add in doctors that don't really remember paper charting, the number is even higher. This is the shift that's occurring. We'll call them EMR natives.
Not cheap. Larger physicians' offices spent $30,000 per physician per EHR, smaller organizations spent $20,000. #EHR #EMR…
— par8o (@par8o) July 9, 2012
Where on earth did they get these numbers? These numbers remind me of when I started posting about EHR software on this blog 6+ years ago. That can't be the average, can it?
3 years in a row, we've been named one of "America's Most Wired Hospitals" by H&HN bit.ly/O68lsk #HITsm #HealthIT
— Montefiore Medical (@MontefioreNews) July 11, 2012
The Twittersphere has been abuzz with the "Most Wired Hospitals" list that was put out last week. This tweet is one hospital that's making the most of the list. I made my thoughts clear on lists. I think I heard someone say that those that make the most wired hospital list are better at PR than they are at tech. Those that love the tech don't worry about some list. Although, I'm sure many at the hospitals on the list are enjoying the pat on the back.
"Anything an organization wants to do; there's some aspect of social media that can benefit: bit.ly/McSoGA #healthIT #HITsm
— Harry Greenspun, MD (@harrygreenspun) July 9, 2012
I'd only change the would can to could. I think social media can benefit anything an organization wants to do. The real question is should you use social media to accomplish that purpose. In many cases the answer is no. Often it's no because it's not the right tool. Often it's no because the company culture isn't amenable to it.

UMMC Campuswide PolicyRe: Natural disasters, catastrophic events and weather-related emergencies(formerly inclement weather)Effective Feb. 10, 2010
To provide guidance and direction to all faculty and staff as relates to staffing needs and expectations in natural disasters, catastrophic events or weather-related emergencies (referenced below as "emergency").
The University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMMC) is open 24 hours per day, seven days per week, 365 days per year to provide ides essential healthcare services to the Jackson metropolitan area, Mississippi and the southeastern region of the United States. Our citizens and communities depend on us to be there in times of need.
During an emergency, all faculty and staff play important roles in providing and/or supporting patient care. Because some members of our work force may be personally affected by the emergency and unable to report to work, UMMC may need to draw staffing support from all areas of the institution to meet and sustain patient care operations and the support/infrastructure services our caregivers depend on.
In the event of an emergency, it is imperative that all employees, regardless of position/role, make every reasonable attempt to be at their assigned jobs in order to help ensure our ability to sustain operations in support of patient care. Only the Vice Chancellor for Health Affairs, or his/her designee, has the authority to cancel or modify scheduled hours of operation or classes in the event of a natural disaster, catastrophic event or weather-related emergency.
In those instances where an employee cannot be at his/her designated job, it is the employee's responsibility to notify the immediate supervisor (or his/her designee) in a timely manner so that appropriate coverage arrangements can be made.
Employees who are unable to report to work for the entire day will be required to take Personal Leave for said period.
All pay practices will be governed by applicable law/regulations in effect at the time of the natural disaster or catastrophic event.
In those instances where UMMC vehicles may be used to transport employees to and from the campus, transportation time is considered time worked.
Departments and units may put additional procedural guidelines in place so long as they are not in conflict with institutional policy and procedure. It is the responsibility of the department/unit chairs to communicate these additional policies to their employees and the responsibility of employees to be knowledgeable of any additional guidelines that may be applicable.
The Department of Human Resources will provide guidance to management should questions arise.

Original System: PCR Results
PCR Test Results
* Ave. INTDEN = Average of ImageJ integrated density values from three Fluorimeter images
Calculation 3: The probability that the patient will develop cancer, given a cancer DNA sequence.
New System: Design Strategy
We concluded that a good system Must Have:
- easily determined results: The easier the results are to read accurately, the less likely a misdiagnosis in either direction. It is undesirable both to give a false negative, where a patient is not treated when care is needed, or to give a false positive, wasting time and resources on those who do not need them. This aspect is central to any diagnostic tool.
- Simple OpenPCR Software: Simplicity increases ease and efficiency in lab experiments and hopefully leads to faster diagnoses. It also makes troubleshooting easier should problems arise. The more straightforward the system, the more quickly users can learn to use the machine.
We concluded that we would Want a good system to have:
- Low cost: Currently an OpenPCR machine costs $599 and a Fluorimeter costs $300. An inexpensive material would help reduce cost and increase accessibility, since there is always a limited budget for new equipment. This would not only allow users to increase the amount of tests that can be run at the same time, but also boost sales, which is important for marketing any device.
- integrated camera: phone cameras are easily moveable and vary in size and quality, leading to differing results. Smartphone camera settings can be time consuming or nonexistent. Having a built-in camera increases cost, but it is worth it to increase speed and accuracy. Furthermore, the program is simpler because it does not have to adjust to different cameras and phone sizes and shapes vary enough to make building a cradle to fit them difficult.
- Troublesome USB Connectivity. USB connectivity should function well in order for OpenPCR machine to work.
- Casing = fire hazard. High temperature with PCR can be dangerous.
We concluded that a good system Should Avoid:
- Avoid slow amplification.
- Hard to adjust phone/ fluorimeter. The phone can be easily moved by accident, which requires readjustment between the phone and the fluorimeter.
New System: Machine/ Device Engineering
Fluorimeter - We chose to include these new features:
PCR Machine - We chose keep these features the same as the original system:

SOURCE: Aeolus Pharmaceuticals
January 02, 2013 10:59 ET
MISSION VIEJO, CA--(Marketwire - Jan 2, 2013) - Aeolus Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCQB: AOLS), a biotechnology company leveraging significant government funding to develop a platform of novel compounds in oncology and biodefense, announced today financial results for the three months and twelve months ended September 30, 2012.
2012 Key Operational Accomplishments
2012 Key Financial Results
Total revenues for FY 2012 were $7.3 million as compared to $4.8 million in FY2011. Net income was $1.7 million, or $0.03 per basic share, which includes a non-cash gain of approximately $4.1 million related to decreases in the fair value of the warrants, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, as compared to a gain of $0.3 million, or $0.01 per basic share, which includes a charge of approximately $3.9 million related to increases in the fair value of the warrants, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $281,000.
For the fourth quarter FY 2012, total revenues were $1.4 million as compared to $2.1 million in 2011. Net loss for the fourth quarter in FY 2012 was $7.1 million, which includes a loss of approximately $6.6 million related to increases in the fair value of the warrants, as compared to $2.1 million, which includes a gain of approximately $1.1 million related to decreases in the fair value of the warrants, in the fourth quarter of FY 2011.
The warrant liability and revaluations have not and will not have any impact on the Company's working capital, liquidity or business operations. The Company's outstanding warrants will continue to be revalued at each balance sheet date, which could result in significant and unpredictable changes to our reported liabilities and significant additional gains or losses charged to the statement of operations for each period regardless of any changes to the Company's working capital, liquidity or business operations.
The increase in research and development expense reflects the acceleration of our Pulmonary Acute Radiation Syndrome ("Lung-ARS") program related to the execution of our contract with BARDA in 2012. We currently have eleven research and development programs in progress: seven programs involving AEOL 10150 as a medical countermeasure against the effects of sulfur mustard gas on the skin and lungs, chlorine gas on the lungs, phosgene gas on the lungs, against the effects of radiation on the lungs and on the gastro-intestinal tract, against the effects of nerve agents, two programs focused on AEOL 11207 and several other compounds as potential treatments for Parkinson's disease and epilepsy, one program studying another one of our compounds, AEOL 10171 (Hexyl), as a protectant against radiation exposure and one program studying AEOL 10150 as a treatment for cancer.
"During fiscal year 2012, we continued to take major steps forward in the development of AEOL 10150, at minimal cost to our shareholders, based on the support of our medical countermeasure development program partners: BARDA, NIH-NIAID and NIH CounterACT," stated John L. McManus, President and Chief Executive Officer. "We look forward to 2013, when we expect to request the exercise of additional options under the BARDA contract, and report critical data in efficacy and safety that we believe will position AEOL 10150 for potential procurement by BARDA for the Strategic National Stockpile."
About AEOL 10150
AEOL 10150 is a broad-spectrum catalytic antioxidant specifically designed to neutralize reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. The neutralization of these species reduces oxidative stress, inflammation, and subsequent tissue damage-signaling cascades resulting from radiation exposure. AEOL 10150 could have a profound beneficial impact on people who have been exposed, or are about to be exposed, to high-doses of radiation in the treatment of oncology.
AEOL 10150 has already performed well in preclinical and non-clinical studies, was well-tolerated in two human clinical trials, and has demonstrated statistically significant survival efficacy in an acute radiation-induced lung injury model. The Company believes it could have a profound beneficial impact on people who have been exposed, or are about to be exposed, to high-doses of radiation, whether from cancer therapy or a nuclear event.
About Aeolus Pharmaceuticals
Aeolus Pharmaceuticals is developing a platform of a new class of broad-spectrum, catalytic-antioxidant compounds that protect healthy tissue from the damaging effects of radiation. Its first compound, AEOL 10150, is being developed for oncology indications, where it is used in combination with radiation therapy. It is also being developed, with funding by the US Department of Health and Human Services, as a medical countermeasure against chemical and radiological weapons, where its initial target indications are as a protective agent against the effects of acute radiation syndrome and delayed effects of acute radiation exposure. Aeolus' strategy is to leverage the substantial investment in toxicology, manufacturing, and preclinical and clinical studies made by US Government agencies in AEOL 10150, including the contract with BARDA valued, with options, at up to $118.4 million, to efficiently develop the compound for use in oncology.

(8.30pm TV3)
If you're still watching, you'll have come to the conclusion that belief has not just been suspended, it's been packed into a rocket and shot into deep space. But every moment the show causes us to cry out obscenities and bang our fists on the cat, another moment comes along immediately that has us hooked again. The stakes are now ridiculously high, and last weeks death of the Vice President was a sensational turn. But I'm coming to the conclusion that Brody must be imprisoned or even die by the end of the series, which is just a few weeks away. I'm also hoping that Carey becomes obsessed with other types of music, even acid-jazz would be a nice change.
Obsessive Compulsive Hoarder (9.30pm TV1)
It's one of life's mysteries but for some reason shows about mad people who cant stop hoarding shit are incredibly watchable. Perhaps it's because we all have the capacity to become one. I reckon most of us have a desire to un-clutter our homes, don't we? I could easily fill a skip if one were delivered tomorrow. Mind you there's always the memory of those things you threw out thinking you'd never need it again, like that Starksy and Hutch cardigan ...
The Jaquie Brown Diaries (Comedy Central, 8.30pm)
Still bloody funny the second time round (or is it the third?). Jaquie might be good peddling baby advice but she shines as narcissist bitch. Complete with brilliant co-stars Madeline Sami, Hannah Banks (Kim Sharee) and Jonny Brugh, who plays McHuntly. Brugh also co-stars in the recent kiwi movie How to Meet Girls From a Distance - actually he kind of steals the show.
Secret Diary of A Callgirl (Prime, 9.30)
A guilty pleasure if there ever was one. If only this was on when Shane Jones was settling down in his hotel room a few years back we may never had to have that image forever etched into our collective memories. Billie Piper has been the best TV whore in the history of the medium and the show has never tried to take itself seriously enough to be offensive. So I'm sure that like me you will be sad to learn that this will be the last ever episode of the series, so you may need a hanky or some wipes.
Embarrassing Bodies (TV1, 8.30pm)
Actually this is more of a guilty pleasure, although squirm inducing is probably closer to the mark. Tonight: A baby bump, even though the woman isn't pregnant? Oh oh, what have we got here?
Which reminds me of a letter to the editor (possibly in The Listener) by some jumped up idiot who cited this show as proof that New Zealand TV programming was going to hell in a hand cart. The complainant tried to link the demise of TVNZ7 with the emergence of "tripe" like this. Ok, so this may be more "pubic" than public service, but for all the gems that sparkled on TVNZ7 there was not one as bright as this.
Also, for all the shocking pustules or weeping, gangrenous, underarm fissures, or indeed on-screen genital mutilation, this show is never as excruciating as one that follows it. Rove LA really is embarrassing. (TV3 9.30pm) He was kind of annoying in Australia but when he's showing off or sucking up to Americans, it's just about unbearable.
Shortland Street (TV2 7pm)
You know the year is really over when Shorty Street comes to its usually and hopefully bloody climax. I'm not an avid viewer by any means but I won't miss this. Someone will surely die. Something will blow up. A wedding will go horribly wrong. Anything short of on-screen genital mutilation is possible. Who could ask for more than that?

June 8th, 2005
So I've started updating again, I'm hope that nobody gave up on me during my stint away from the comic. Sometimes I just don't feel like doing it, or alternately other things that interest me get in the way of progress. That aside expect updates to be coming three times a week for some time now, least I lose a little competition some comrades of mine have started up.
I've joined the lazy grind. (http://oosterwijk.keenspace.com/lazy.htm) To a degree the idea is just for fun, we aren't in it for money for one. The idea is of course an imitation of the much publicized daily grind webcomic competition. Apparently even down to ripping off their html. I guess that sets just about the right tone for the proceedings. The losers have to draw something of the winner's choice, so when I invariably win the contest I will be sure to think of something embarrassing for my defeated foes to suffer through. So yeah, updates should come more frequently in the future.
In other webcomic news it seems that a name change is pending for my host, keenspace. My temper has cooled now at that proposition, but my plans have not changed with time. Whenever I am able to I will be leaving keenspace, though truth be told that could some time from now. If I am to have to change my url to something new I hope to change it to something I pick rather than be subject to the will of another.
Accordingly I'm going to pick back up with the donation wallpaper thing, as that seems the be a possible means by which I could acquire the funding needed to host my site elsewhere. Expect a new design to be previewed in the area below in the near future. As I wasn't updating the comic for some time there it did not seem right to me to try and be getting donations and as such there has been a lack of new ones for a while now. I'm still trying to conjure up a wallpaper idea that would spur interest in my readers and am, of course, open to suggestions in the forums.
Speaking of those forums, they are still there, so yay, lets get some feedback. Not much to say about them other than that. Perhaps I should add that you should mind the cobwebs and I think a raccoon is nesting in one of the topics, but he won't bother you lest you bother him first.
In the future I may not have a text update every time I upload a new comic, but expect to hear from me more frequently just the same. Though I would venture to say I've said more than my fill for this day. Until next I feel the need to ramble on a bit, have a good day and I shall see you then.
I was feeling more verbose when I wrote that than usual. I suppose that I was trying to make up for having not done a text update for so long. If anyone has something to add to that this would be the place to do it, otherwise I think I've said more than enough.

Hi there,
I'm somewhat new here. I've been looking around this board for almost ten years. Anyway, I'm wondering if anybody here can give me some information on my Arp Explorer 1 I just bought. It says model 2910 on it with what looks like a SCSI on the back, as opposed to the 2900 that most of the Explorers say. I tried a sweep of the board and didn't really find much on it, so I'd appreciate some history if you guys have any.

Probably the stupidest kids TV show in history. I mean seriously, a bunch of weird characters with antennas and television screens in their bellies, running around a fake landscape with a pet hoover. And people say cannabis should be legalised? Teletubbies began in 1997 and when I first saw it I immediately hated it. After a few months it took off, making Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po huge stars across the nation. How was it educational to kids? They just used to roll around on the floor, being fascinated with windmills and speakers that appeared from the ground and have the worse grasp of speech since Steven Hawking. They used to gorge on Tubby Custard and Tubby Toast, scoffing it down as fast as James Cordon at a free buffet. But I guess this is what toddlers are like, and that is probably why the Teletubbies scare me now just like young kids. Anytime anyone under the age of six is around me, I freeze like Gordon Brown on a live television debate and just don't know what to do with them. If a burglar appeared in my house dressed as Po I'd end up handing over my valuables. I wasn't the only one who found the Teletubbies unappealing. Anti-gay groups slammed Tinky Winky as he was purple and carried around a handbag with him at most times. The show's creators claimed he wasn't gay but come on, he's as queer as Alan Carr dancing to the YMCA at Mardi Gras holding a sparkler. I'm sure Alan would have got on well with Noo-Noo, the sucking sensation. If only Dyson could have come up with a vacuum that goes round cleaning stuff itself, and considering the mess that the frightful foursome made he had his work cut out. Then there was the baby who appeared as the Sun, who I'm sure these days must be being treated for a severe case of melanoma. They released a single in December 1997 which reached number one for two weeks and went double platinum. Who would buy such a thing you may ask? Well, I'll confess that I did, but only to spite my sister who desperately wanted Boyzone to hit top spot in the same week, honest! The show ended production in 2001 but continues to be repeated to this day, and so more and more kids will end up saying "Eh oh!", spitting their food everywhere and having to say goodbye to people three times, and it is all down to those creepy characters. It just goes to show that nothing good can ever come from the countryside…
