Ledebouriella Divaricata Root
Ledebouriella divaricata root is used in traditional Chinese medicine. It is cultivated in the province of Heilong in China. It is grown and collected during the spring and fall seasons when the root is ready to be harvested and processed for its many therapeutic properties. Sometimes it is just dried under the sun and used as it is in the treatment of certain illnesses and diseases.
In Chinese medicine, the Ledebouriella divaricata root is classified as an herb that removes wind that can cause pain and spasm. It can be used alone or combined with other herbs as an effective herbal formula. It is also called Fangfeng in Chinese.
History and Origin
The Ledebouriella divaricata root's Chinese name 'Fangfeng' has a straightforward meaning. Fang means prevention while feng means wind. In traditional Chinese medicine, the human body is known to become unbalanced due to many natural causes like the wind, heat and cold. Treatment of illnesses caused by the wind or wind-dampness is what the Ledebouriella divaricata root is known for.
Ancient Uses
During ancient times, the Chinese were the first to use the therapeutic effects of the Ledebouriella divaricata root. It was used to relieve arthritis pain and inflammation, to treat the common cold, chills, fevers and body pains. Wind-heat conditions of the body such as sore throats and headaches were also relieved with Ledebouriella divaricata root preparations.
Modern Uses
In modern times, the Ledebouriella divaricata root was studied and shown to have many therapeutic properties. It has anti-inflammatory properties that can benefit arthritis suffering people. It can reduce joint swelling, pain, redness and increases joint mobility in no time at all with continued use. It can also be an effective treatment for rheumatoid arthritis as well as to reduce the spasms of tired muscles and to reduce pains due to excessive exercise and mobility.
In skin conditions, it is known to treat skin itching and to reduce skin inflammation. It can also be used alongside other herbs such as Jing Jie in the treatment of the common cold and in combination with other herbs to treat wind-heat type illnesses.
Because of the sweet and pungent taste of the Ledebouriella divaricata root, it has been known to treat disorders of the liver, spleen and the urinary system. It is also seen as a relief of symptoms of tetanus, opisthotonus trismus and also for spasms of the facial muscles and muscles of the extremities.
Side Effects
The Ledebouriella divaricata root has many therapeutic properties but it is contraindicated in patients with blood related problems. In traditional Chinese medicine, the Ledebouriella divaricata root is not given to patients that have "excessive fire" nor for people that have a Yin deficiency.
It is contraindicated in women that are either pregnant or breastfeeding and may also not be applicable for use by and for very young children and babies. If you wish to use Ledebouriella divaricata root for your illness or ailment, it is always best to consult your doctor or a herbalist first before beginning any treatment on your own. Always ask about any possible adverse reactions with any medication you may be taking currently. For use externally, never apply the Ledebouriella divaricata root herb onto broken, open or infected skin; seek medical consultation first.

I type like a grandpa on my iPad but I've never really wanted a physical keyboard for it because it'd be a pain carrying the damn thing. This iKeyboard, however, looks like it'd be the perfect compromise.
The iKeyboard lays on top of your iPad and has cutouts that fit the iPad's keyboard perfectly. There's a thin layer of film within each key cutout that when pressed, presses into the iPad key. Not only does that film let you rest your hands on the keyboard without touching the screen, it gives you that tactile feedback that most of us need. And since it's not really a keyboard itself, the overall size of the iKeyboard is much smaller than the Apple Bluetooth keyboard. If you're interested in the iKeyboard, head to Kickstarter and donate to the project. [Kickstarter]
Update December 8th 2001: We've tried this, and it's awful in every possible way, except that it didn't catch on fire and burn down our office.

MT. PLEASANT, Mich – The Georgia College baseball team put three players on the Rawlings/American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) All-Southeast Region Teams, the organization announced recently.
Outfielder Shawn Ward (Evans, Ga.) and shortstop Tanner Funk (Kearney, Mo.) each earned first team slots, while starting pitcher Mike Guinane (Glenview, Ill.) picked up a second-team nod.
The Peach Belt Conference (PBC) Co-Player of the Year, Ward put up gaudy numbers in 2011. A .398 hitter, Ward paces the PBC in RBI at 61, adding a slugging percentage of .612 and 49 runs scored. This is his second selection to this team, after being named to the second team a year ago. Ward is the first two-time recipient since relief pitcher Michael Newman in 2006 and 2007. Eleven Bobcat outfielders have made this list all-time.
In his first year with the Bobcats, Funk was second on the team in hitting at .393 with two home runs and 54 RBI. He also led the PBC in doubles with 20. He slugged .520 and scored 45 runs. Funk is the first shortstop to make the list since Mike DeVeaux in 2006. GC has put six shortstops on these region teams all-time.
Also in his first season for GC, Guinane was 9-1 with a 3.84 ERA and 64 strikeouts over 91 1/3 innings. Guinane is the 16th pitcher to take ABCA All-Region honors for Georgia College.
All-time, GC baseball has put 51 student-athletes on the ABCA All-Region squads. Funk and Ward will now move on to the All-America ballot.
The Bobcat baseball team went 35-17 in 2011, a season that saw them hold down the No. 1 spot in the country for two weeks. The Bobcats finished second in the PBC West, honoring three all-region players, including PBC Co-Player of the Year Ward.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, back-to-back winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement. Sign up at www.twitter.com/BobcatSports and www.facebook.com/gcbobcats for up-to-the-minute reports, and visit www.GCBobcats.com for more information, and to nominate your favorite former Bobcats and Colonials to the GC Athletics Hall of Fame.

Not exactly "snappy", but a great quote nonetheless.
"Which is more probable; that the laws of physics or the laws of nature be suspended, by the way in my favour, or that I'm under a misapprehension? Everyone has to ask themselves that question. That's if they saw it themselves. If they take it as a report, issued through and filtered through dozens of other non-eyewitnesses and corrupt texts down the years then I would think anyone who says that they think of the resurrection as an historic fact is advertising a willingness to believe in absolutely anything."
Christopher Hitchens
Oh, come on! Do we REALLY have to borrow from that douche bag O. J.?!?
Yeah ... except that O.J. got his ass handed to him in the civil suit that followed, never mind his stupidity after THAT.
Besides, god being vengeful may have been hot stuff with Cecil B. deMille 70 years ago, but in the age of Star Wars, it's just cheap special effects. Eventually, SOMEONE is going to be more interested in STEAK rather than sizzle ... eventually.
Knowledge destroys perfection...Perfect knowledge is a myth.
Wake up America Religion is bad for you and your children:
Christians make up 80% of the U.S. prison population
Atheist make of only 1%
Evangelists are kinda like The Who's 'Tommy' - deaf dumb and blind kids who sure play mean spinball'.
Of course I mean dumb in the politically incorrect sense. In the politically correct sense, it would be nice if they were. (Just got a sudden flash of evangelist trying to convert victim using only body language. There's a challenge for some wannabe stand-up!)
"Evolution: Millions of adaptations can't be wrong."
Atheists have the emotionally maturity to face reality without needing an imaginary friend. That's my response to the Theist who say "Atheists are just people with no hope" or "Atheists just hate god" or whatever.

The Lipscomb Bisons closed out the tournament in 11th place Wednesday. They shot 916 as a team (309, 294, 313), a score of 52-over- par. Campbell University won the tournament with a team score of 867, three-over-par.
Clint Suggs and Cory Parkinson were the leaders for the Bisons. They both finished in a tie for 22nd with a three-round score of 223. Suggs, who started the day tied for 31st place fired rounds of 78, 71 and 74. Parkinson, who began the third round in a tie for seventh, shot rounds of 72, 69 and 82.
Dylan Waters was 49th with a score of 235 (82, 75, 78). Samuel Marcrom tied for 50th with scores of 77, 79 and 80 for a three-round total of 236.
Brandon Mundie shot an 81 in the last round for the Bisons. He finished in 54th place with a score of 245. He shot 84 and 80 in the first two rounds.
After two rounds of play that featured 19 of 22 team scores under 300, only three schools, Mercer, ETSU and Stetson broke that mark as winds howled throughout the round, at times blowing resting golf balls off the putting green. Campbell's score, 302, tied for the fourth-best of the day. The Camels closest competition entering the round, UNF, could only match Campbell in finishing second for the fourth time in five years, all to different winners.
Camel sophomore Zak Drescher, who won 2008 U.S. Amateur sectional qualifier on The Creek Course, registered one of the two sub-par rounds of the day, a one-under, 71, moving up from a tie for 37th to his final position, a tie for 14th. Freshman Vaita Guillaume, the two-day leader, closed with a four-over, 76, to finish as the runner-up. Matt Moot and Isak Pettersen joined Drescher as part of a seven-way tie for 14th. On the individual side,
ETSU's Michael Stewart joined Gareth Shaw last season and his teammate, Seamus Power in 2007, as the third straight Buccaneer to win the A-Sun's Medalist honor. Like Power two years ago, Stewart won as a freshman. He improved from a tie for 10th to the top spot on the strength of the day's other under-par round, also a one-under, 71, to finish at three-under, 213. After a two-over start on his first nine holes, Stewart carded three straight birdies followed by three straight pars to claim victory. The 27th-ranked Buccaneers moved up to fourth from seventh.
Mercer picked up its best showing since 1993, finishing third, two strokes in back of UNF and nine behind the winning Camels. Four Bears, Ryan Blackburn, Bill Jones III, Matt Tribby and Andres Pumariega shot 75 or better in posting the best team score of the round, a seven-over, 295. The Bears' two seniors, Blackburn and Jones III finished in the top five to earn All-Tournament honors. Blackburn finished alone in third at one-under, 215 after shooting an even-par, 72, on Wednesday. Jones III shot a two-over, 74, to share fifth with Stetson's Tommy Parker and USC Upstate's Josh Gallman.
FGCU closed out its inaugural Atlantic Sun Championship in fifth place followed by Stetson and USC Upstate. Kennesaw State, third entering Wednesday, finished eighth with Jacksonville, Belmont and Lipscomb rounding out the field.

WTP/What we have learned (to love) about P2
Well, the "love" part might be premature :) but are confident we'll end up there.
This page is a central place to document some notes about what we in WTP have learned about P2, which bugs effect us, little "tricks", etc. Warning: this is a fast evolving area, due to bugs, miscommunication, and ignorance, so take these notes as hints ... nothing is forever ... and update this page as you find more information or errors in the information here.
In theory, shouldn't effect you at all. You could or should be able to do things as always, except there might be some bugs, and there are reasons to try to make use of it. One reason is to help the platform find bugs early so they get fixed by their release. Closer to home ... help find bugs in _our_ code that only show up in the conditions encouraged by P2.
Ever wonder what P2 stands for? As best I can tell "Provisioning Platform" (I think I know why they did not want to call it PP ). We in WTP won't be taking advantage of the platform aspects of it directly (that is, not using their APIs) but its my understanding that the EPP Project will be making their "all in one" installs using P2, which should be much better then the old Update Manager.
Running WTP
Here's one way to create a running version of WTP. Unzip the Eclipse SDK in some directory, say /M6. You'll see the familiar directories, eclipse/plugins and eclipse/features but some new ones too ... the main new one is an empty directory called eclipse/dropins. This is by design the place to "drop in" other zip files or plugins that are not installed via the P2 User Interface.
I unzip wtp-sdk and all our pre-reqs into separate subdirectories, such as wtp, emf, xsd, gef, dtp, relengtool, testFramework. So ... you end up with a hierarchy similar to
/M6/eclipse /M6/plugins /M6/features /M6/dropins /M6/dropins/wtp /M6/dropins/emf /M6/dropins/xsd /M6/dropins/.... etc. And, each of those subdirectories end up looking as they did before ... for example, /M6/dropins/wtp /M6/dropins/wtp/eclipse /M6/dropins/wtp/eclipse/plugins /M6/dropins/wtp/eclipse/features
Now, start eclipse like you usually would. You should have a fully functioning WTP.
This structure has the advantage that it _should_ be easier to update pieces of your install, say just with a new WTP build, without touching the rest of it.
Tip: The first time you start, it'll take a lot longer than it used to. See bug 224579. But, subsequent restarts should be as fast or faster -- as long as you do not use -clean (-clean clears the timestamp cache and it goes through the whole re-discover process again).
Self Hosting WTP Development
With the above install, you can use the plugins you normally develop and commit and it will "compile and run against" that version you are self hosting on. (If trouble, go to PDE Preferences, Target Platform, and press "reset" (not reload). Check on "show by location" and you should see all your sub-directories in dropins. (If not, open a bug, or comment in this instructions, or both).
I think there are issues with running against a completely different target, installed in a different directory (see bug 225148). Even that can be worked around by "running" the target, so all the meta data is updated. But, check the bug ... that may change with more information. Maybe it's just me. :) Or, update the bug if you find out more!
Bugs we've discovered in our code due to P2
My guess is others have similar bugs, so hopefully other projects and adopters can learn from us. This bugs all had to do with making incorrect assumptions about they locations of where things were installed.
One was some old pre-bundle code that had been copied several places, where we were making some incorrect assumptions about the locations of plugins. These were easy to fix using the correct APIs. See bug 224148.
We have some code which makes assumptions about location of where features are installed. It currently works with P2, but we should never assume anything about features, and may eventually look if there's some P2 API way of accomplishing the update that is being done. See bug 224441.
Disabling P2
If you just really can't make it work and its interfering with your own development (then, after opening a bug saying so :) ... or, you just want to do some tests comparing the old with the new ... then there is a way to disable P2. See Equinox p2 Removal. I think only the first three steps listed there are required. Of course, this should be a separate install than your P2 attempts, everything unzipped where it used to be, and backups of replaced files kept.
I should also warn, that as far as I know, running in this disabled mode has not been extensively tested, though in theory it should all work just fine.
- Replace the eclipse/configuration/config.ini file with the contents from Eclipse platform version 3.3.2.
- Replace the eclipse/eclipse.ini file with the contents from Eclipse platform version 3.3.2.
If you have none handy, you can try unzipping this zip file (File:NOP2config.zip) that has the above two files laid out to over write those two config and ini files.
- Remove the platform.xml from eclipse/configuration/org.eclipse.update/platform.xml. (to force re-discovery).

(Reuters) - Exxon Mobil Corp's near 70-year-old Pegasus oil pipeline spilled a small amount of crude on Tuesday into a residential yard in Ripley County, Missouri, a month after the same pipe spewed thousands of barrels of crude in Arkansas.
A resident notified the company of the spill after spotting a patch of oil and dead vegetation seven miles south of Doniphan in the southeast of the state, Exxon and state officials said on Wednesday.
About one barrel of crude leaked and the cleanup is "close to completion", an Exxon spokeswoman said.
Tuesday's spill occurred 200 miles north of Mayflower, Arkansas, where about 5,000 barrels of crude spilled from the Pegasus pipe into a residential area on March 29, prompting a giant clean-up operation that is still ongoing.
The Mayflower spill stoked a fractious national debate about the effect of shipping increasing amounts of tarry Canadian crude across the United States, including through residential areas and in aging pipelines.
The Pegasus line, which can carry more than 90,000 barrels a day of crude from Illinois to Texas, was built in the late 1940s. It was shut after the Arkansas spill and was not in operation when the Missouri spill occurred.
Exxon has not offered a timeline for when Pegasus will restart.
"The release occurred from the installation of a guide wire for a power line pipe that was installed approximately 30 years ago," a spokeswoman for the Missouri Department of Natural Resources said on Wednesday. "The guide wire was located almost directly on top of the pipeline and has worn down over the years."
The Exxon spokeswoman said the cause was under investigation.

Today's guest blog post is written by AAA member, Dr. Faye V. Harrison. She is a Joint Professor in Anthropology and African American Studies at the University of Florida.
The outcome of the George Zimmerman trial is symptomatic of the extent to which an insidious post-racial ideology has influenced US society. The court's refusal to recognize the part that racial profiling played in Trayvon Martin's death belies the reality of structural racism in a society in which anxieties over crime and security are inextricably entangled with racialized perceptions and projections of danger and disorder.
Besides having examined the media coverage and some of the scholarly literature on racial profiling, I am also familiar with the phenomenon on other grounds. I am the mother of three sons who, on many occasions, have been deemed to be guilty while driving, walking, and shopping black. Moreover, their father and uncles, despite being a generation older and established members of their community, have also had more of their share of being racially profiled. In one instance, my husband and his older brother, both university professors, were stopped while driving in an area of town where police claimed to be on the lookout for two black male robbery suspects. After the police stopped them, asked them to get out of the car and searched them and the car, it should have been clear that these two African-American men did not fit the description of the younger suspects. Instead of letting the men resume their drive home, the police called in for reinforcements, escalating the situation. The presumed danger the police encountered was nothing other than black men's verbal indignation for being targeted and disrespected because of race. Fortunately, the confrontation subsided without an arrest, injury, or death. However, that incident, like so many others around the country, demonstrates the existential and structural vulnerability of not only working-class, working-poor, and unemployed black youths, who bear the brunt of this targeting, but also of a wider class and generational cross-section of African Americans and other racially-subjected people.
While meanings that encode danger and predatory criminality are frequently attributed to the bodies and intentions of black males, racial profiling also affects other populations, as illuminated in the online Native News Network in which Navajo/Yankton Sioux filmmaker Jacqueline Keeler recently posted a relevant commentary, "My Dad Was Almost Trayvon Martin" (July 17, 2013). However, indigenous and other ethno-racial minority males are not the only targets. For example, Black women are commonly profiled as drug mules and sex workers and, as a result, subjected to invasive strip searches, sexual harassment and even rape. The devaluation of their lives also results in incarceration and loss of life, but with less media attention and public engagement than in the case of males.
A combination of personal testimonies, academic research, and investigative reports from civil rights and human rights organizations clearly demonstrate that racial profiling, whether emanating from policing or the practice of vigilante justice, is a severe problem in this country as well as in many other parts of the world. The problem in the US has been documented and debated domestically and transnationally. In 2008, the UN Special Rapporteur on Contemporary Forms of Racism investigated racism in the US. In his report, racial profiling was a major issue he addressed in the contexts of law enforcement, immigration, counterterrorism, and post-Katrina conditions.
The nearly all-white and all-female jury that found Zimmerman not guilt in the second-degree murder or manslaughter of 17-year old Martin accepted the defense attorneys' claim that racial profiling was not operative in the case. They accepted the argument that Zimmerman had justifiably criminally profiled Martin, whose hoodie supposedly made him suspicious in a neighborhood where black males had allegedly committed robberies. Since the verdict was announced, people of diverse backgrounds have demonstrated against the acquittal, and they have demanded a federal investigation of civil rights violations and a repeal of stand-your-ground laws. All around the country protesters are contesting the court's post-racial interpretation of Martin's demise. That both the defense and the prosecution discounted race indicates the extent to which colorblindness has taken hold of a considerable portion of the populace.
Trayvon Martin's death is the most visible in a larger pattern in which police and armed citizens have been acquitted—if arrested and arraigned at all—for killing blacks, particularly black youths, after invoking conventional self-defense claims or stand-your-ground law. Although Florida's stand-your- ground law had no official role in the trial, its existence and the popular support for it among gun owners contributed to the ideological climate in which the jurors operated. In her CNN interview with Anderson Cooper, Juror 37 asserted that Zimmerman had the right to defend himself. She referred to stand-your-ground law as a justification for her selective interpretation of the evidence. In her view, Martin's part in the scuffle that led to his death was not self-defense but the life-threatening violence through which he caused his own death. Such blame-the-victim logic is pervasive in the criminal justice system and the school-to-prison pipeline that feeds into it.
Anthropologists can contribute useful insights into the complex dynamics germane to the lived experience of and the ideological-political struggles over racial profiling. For instance, we can illuminate the shifting contexts in which some minorities and new immigrants are subjected to racialized and racially-gendered policing and litigation while others are conferred the prerogatives of whiteness with the right to armed self-defense. We can also find the means to express practical solidarity with those who are standing up for change.

GIT is a fast software revision control system noted for it's relative ease when branching and merging lines of development.
Versions and Availability
Softenv Keys for git on supermike2
|Softenv Key
▶ Softenv FAQ?
The information here is applicable to LSU HPC and LONI systems.
A user may choose between using /bin/bash and /bin/tcsh. Details about each shell follows.
System resource file: /etc/profile
When one access the shell, the following user files are read in if they exist (in order):
- ~/.bash_profile (anything sent to STDOUT or STDERR will cause things like rsync to break)
- ~/.bashrc (interactive login only)
- ~/.profile
When a user logs out of an interactive session, the file ~/.bash_logout is executed if it exists.
The default value of the environmental variable, PATH, is set automatically using SoftEnv. See below for more information.
The file ~/.cshrc is used to customize the user's environment if his login shell is /bin/tcsh.
SoftEnv is a utility that is supposed to help users manage complex user environments with potentially conflicting application versions and libraries.
System Default Path
When a user logs in, the system /etc/profile or /etc/csh.cshrc (depending on login shell, and mirrored from csm:/cfmroot/etc/profile) calls /usr/local/packages/softenv-1.6.2/bin/use.softenv.sh to set up the default path via the SoftEnv database.
SoftEnv looks for a user's ~/.soft file and updates the variables and paths accordingly.
Viewing Available Packages
The command softenv will provide a list of available packages. The listing will look something like:
$ softenv These are the macros available: * @default These are the keywords explicitly available: +amber-8 Applications: 'Amber', version: 8 Amber is a +apache-ant-1.6.5 Ant, Java based XML make system version: 1.6. +charm-5.9 Applications: 'Charm++', version: 5.9 Charm++ +default this is the default environment...nukes /etc/ +essl-4.2 Libraries: 'ESSL', version: 4.2 ESSL is a sta +gaussian-03 Applications: 'Gaussian', version: 03 Gaussia ... some stuff deleted ...
Managing SoftEnv
The file ~/.soft in the user's home directory is where the different packages are managed. Add the +keyword into your .soft file. For instance, ff one wants to add the Amber Molecular Dynamics package into their environment, the end of the .soft file should look like this:
To update the environment after modifying this file, one simply uses the resoft command:
% resoft
The command soft can be used to manipulate the environment from the command line. It takes the form:
$ soft add/delete +keyword
Using this method of adding or removing keywords requires the user to pay attention to possible order dependencies. That is, best results require the user to remove keywords in the reverse order in which they were added. It is handy to test out individual keys, but can lead to trouble if changing multiple keys. Changing the .soft file and issuing the resoft is the recommended way of dealing with multiple changes.
Placing a directory under GIT revision control would involve the following commands:
$ mkdir
$ cd $ git init # initialize git w/i this directory
One can then proceed to manipulate files within the directory as so:
$ git add . # adds files w/i the current directory $ git commit # commits changes $ git status # lists files that have been modified $ git diff
# lists changes made to given file $ # grab repo from remote location, assuming $ # a 'git init' was executed in the directory first: $ git pull ssh://[user@]host/~user/path/to/repo

For the summer months, our Meals with Wheels series brings you a sampling of what's being served by the food trucks that are circulating through the city — including those in the permitted spots in the downtown core, as part of a pilot program to reintroduce mobile food kitchens.
The truck: Dispatch Coffee, est. 2012. This 1988 aluminum-frame Grumman truck, previously owned by a Vancouver construction worker, was shipped across the country for its new vocation.
The team: Dispatch is headed by Chrissy Durcak, who previously worked as a barista at some of Montreal's top progressive coffee shops, including Café Névé and Café Sardine.
The concept: Durcak took her love of coffee on the road in September of last year. She offers various espresso-based drinks on the go, as well as catering, consulting and occasional courses.
Committed to promoting local, sustainable businesses, Dispatch features beans from smaller-scale roasteries, like Montreal's Kittel and Anchored out of Dartmouth, N.S.
The signature dish: You won't go wrong with any of the coffee-based beverages, from lattes to Americanos. But Dispatch's version of Vietnamese coffee ($4.50) really shows off the truck's quality-meets-fun approach. Instead of the usual drip coffee combined with condensed milk, it's styled after an affogato — typically Italian espresso poured over vanilla ice cream.
It showcases Kittel's award-winning Ethiopia Sidama beans (A), which are bright and pleasantly sour, with notes of blueberry and cocoa.
"It didn't feel right, throwing condensed milk into it," Durcak says. Instead, she adds ice cream (B) made with condensed milk, chicory and a hint of Vietnamese coffee, to pick up the South Asian flavours.
The result is rich and creamy, melty and cool — the ultimate end-of-summer treat.
The full order: Get your coffee with a sweet and savoury treat made by local pastry chef Kyle Crouch (formerly of Sardine), who has been supplying the truck this summer. (He also makes the ice cream.)

Leyland: No set closer a 'second-guesser's delight'
MINNEAPOLIS -- Whether Jose Valverde's return on a Minor League contract was the Tigers' reaction to their closer by committee setup, manager Jim Leyland had his own reaction Thursday.
Leyland had predicted in Spring Training that having no set closer would be a "second-guesser's delight." He was anticipating the questions about his bullpen usage after Eduardo Escobar's two-run double off Phil Coke Wednesday completed the Twins' comeback for a 3-2 win.
"When you're doing this by committee, there are going to be questions every time," Leyland said. "But you know what this boils down to? ... If you win the game, it was good, and if you didn't win the game, it was bad. Period. Make up your mind. That's the way it is. This is about wins."
He saw his former closer turned Rays All-Star Fernando Rodney give up a lead for Tampa Bay Wednesday night, and he saw Chris Perez do the same for Cleveland. In the Tigers' case, however, it wasn't a full-time closer.
"Sometimes people act surprised, but it's been going on forever in baseball," Leyland said. "Usually the kiss of death is a one-run lead in the ninth inning when you walk the leadoff guy. We've all watched it for a thousand years. A lot of times it comes back to bite you. Sometimes it doesn't. When you duck it, you're real happy and very fortunate. That's pretty simple. That happens.
"One of the best relief pitchers in the league, in my opinion, is [Joaquin] Benoit. Popped the [leadoff hitter] straight up on the first pitch [on Opening Day]. The second day, he happened to walk him. So what? That happens."
Both the Rays and Indians, however, rallied after that and won. In the Tigers' case, it was a walkoff blow

Caption: A New York man has got this 'winning' Charlie Sheen tattoo - featuring the troubled actor's head attached to the body of a tiger. The man, as yet unidentified, was talking to his tattoo artist pal Mike Nomy about the star's recent exploits. When Mike, who works at South Shore Tattoo in Amityville, New York, suggested the design, the client jumped at the opportunity. Mike said: "We were talking about Charlie Sheen and kept repeating his catchphrases. I said that I had an awesome idea for a Sheen tattoo and he immediately said he wanted it. I thought it was so funny I did it for free." Mike said the tattoo, inked on his client's leg, took about two-and-a-half hours to complete. He added: "The guy went straight to a bar afterwards wearing shorts and he said he was the talk of the place. People were taking pictures of it all night. I've tattooed some strange things before but this is definitely the weirdest yet." The word 'Winning' appears at the bottom of the tattoo. Pictures Pictures courtesy of Mike Nomy.

Flame Resistant Shirts
There are no products matching the selection.
I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how well Christy has been doing in her customer support position. I placed an order on-line but I could not add this one shirt so I would avoid the shipping charge. There was no add to order button on the web page so This is why I called. Christy was extremely friendly and professional as she said she could add this to my order and then she would follow up with an email. Then Christy called me back stating that the shirt in question was on back order till December and she wanted to know if I wanted to wait. I told her no and that I just wanted the pants for now. She also stated that she would waive the shipping cost on the pants because I tried to order the over fifty dollars worth of merchandise. This is why I do business with Working Person. Your prices are good but the customer service is better."

Is there a reality competition show feud brewing between "American Idol's" Simon Cowell and "Dancing with the Stars'" Len Goodman?
On Tuesday night's "Idol," after Didi Benami performed "What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted," a performance she was eventually sent home for, Simon slammed her rendition, and in doing so, slammed Len's show.
"If you listen to one of those dancing shows, they always have a singer murdering a song on it," Simon said. "That's what it kind of — if you've ever watch it – that's what it kind of sounded [like]."
The direct jab at the "DWTS'" live band didn't sit easy with Len.
"He's bitter. Honestly, he's bitter. Simon Cowell is bitter," a grinning Len told Access Hollywood's Billy Bush on Thursday. "As far as I'm concerned, those singers are genius. When you watch what they have to go through – hip-hop, light operatic, anything thrown at them, they're brilliant. I love that band and I love those singers and I didn't mind Simon Cowell until this point.
"When I take these clothes off, you can't believe what's under this… honestly, ripples! And he's gonna get the full force, right in the navel. It's gonna be a navel attack," Len added jokingly.
Len wasn't the only "Dance" judge though to take notice of Simon's comments.
Simon's former "Idol" executive producer, Nigel Lythgoe, who is now a judge on "So You Think You Can Dance," took to his Twitter twice on Thursday, to Tweet that the currently engaged Brit will soon have to dance, and when he does, Nigel has no doubts it will be as bad as Simon thinks the dance show singers are.
"He may be leaving "Idol" but he's joining the "All-Stars" before his wedding, representing the genres of Wacking and Vogueing- SIMON COWELL," Nigel wrote.

Now, I do know that there is something about pennies and the spirit world, I do not know exactly what the intenstion is, but I was in the Gettysburg Cemetery and many of the graves had pennies on top of the headstones. I have seen this in other places too and have heard others experiences with finding pennies in odd places too and they relate it to a spirit having done so.
Has anyone else had similar experiences?
We do know we have a few who have followed us home and we deal with them. The first thing that hits me, is that they like our visits and this is something to get our attention to come again. I hear and feel this, not sure I am on track, but we seem to make them happy...

That's interesting about pennies on the gravestones at gettsburg. Unfortunately, since it is not a controlled environment, it makes the most "cents" (I'm too funny right?) to assume they are just normal pennies left by normal people. I am not sure why they would do such a thing, but maybe it is like a tribute of some sort for the honored dead there.
Your pennies are a different story, I suppose. I have heard other stories about ghosts leaving coins around. Out of curiosity, what are your ghost pennies like? Are they all similar, or do they vary? Do I understand correctly that most of these coins have been found outside the environs of your apartment?
Do you think it would be more significant if they were rare or of a distant vintage? I guess coins form the future would really be something!
The idea that spirits would be leaving coins for people to find raises some questions in my mind.
Where do they get them?
How do they move them?
What are they trying to accomplish by doing this?
Why leave such a common object?
We can't really answer these, of course. It's fun to think about though.
Regards, Canis

Long history back in there and part of it had to do with the Presidente who was on this coin, to the best of our knowledge.
It is interesting.
These pennies have random dates and have been found inside our hallway. There is only the two apts up stairs where I live and this began before the new neighbors moved in. The other neighbors are either asleep or at work when we find these. This is a small building, only 8 units total and the others have there own entrance from outside doors. Not a busy sidewalk area either, very few people come by if at all.

Kat, I do remember telling about that, I just couldn't remember who it was! TY.
I also forgot that Greg had one show up on his front seat of his car on top of items he had in there. He had just come home and went back down to get something and there it was, so he brought it in. He also had a dragon charm show up on his seat once too, just prior to my arrival in Illinois.
We do see new spirits popping in around us a lot lately, we just can't get who is doing what.
Posted 02 December 2009 - 10:58 PM
I'd also like to know if there's a meaning behind it or if it's truly my Grandma coming to let me know she's still here with me.
Leslie & Greg, I couldn't get on here fast enough to respond....didn't even get to read others' responses. I just thought this was something only I was experiencing....so maybe there is an awesome meaning behind it? I think so.
Posted 03 December 2009 - 09:02 AM
We found another one at our door inside the building again this morning. Its quite a lot in the last couple of days. It does seem to be more related to our visits to the cemetery. We had not gone for about a week, we were working on "Miracle On 34th Street" at the community theater. But now the show has started and we had time to go walking again and the pennies started to show up again.
We do feel that the random dates on the pennies mean nothing, they are just what they have been able to find is our guess. It doesn't take a lot of energy to move a penny and place it.

I also have to add, that no one we know, would be doing any such thing, let alone the dingy neighbors we have. Everyone keeps to themselves.
It is an interesting thought tho....

i never heard of the pennies things.i have heard of it with silver dollars,which i imagine became popular because sd's were placed over the eyes of the recently deceased.maybe its true ith all coins,who knows.
i can't offer an answer but i can share a crazy experience.keep in mind im not 100% sure on how this happened so please feel free to draw your own conclusions.also since this is your post not mine i will spare the details: i came home from what was 3 busy days of writing/recording music.in the 3 days i maybe have slept a grand total of 6 hours.i would bet on a few less though.so needless to say i was dropdead tired on the way back i had gotten some food for me and a buddy the change back was 42 dollars and some cents.in this case the coins are not relevant though.i had a 20 3 5's amd 7 1's.once i got into my room i emptied my pockets of the money,which was crumpled and balled up as opposed to folded,and threw it,rather carelessly onto my desk.
that night i dreamed i was walking around my house looking for something,i gave up and walked back to my room.when i opened the door i saw a woman with white hair,looked bleached blonde rather than old lady white,she appeared to be in her late 30's early 40's.she was on the floor while this man beat her mercilessly,he was punching her and then stomping her face in until he started to choke her.for some reason i knew i couldnt touch her or this man so i just stood petrified.when i turned around the while haired lady was standing there behind me watching as well,looking even more shocked and awestruck than i had been,then she turned and and said "help me" "i dont know how"i replied.i knew she didnt mean make him stop attacking her,at this point it was clear she was already dead.she said she would pay me if i helped her,i said it wasnt necessary,that if i could think of a way to help i would gladly,but not to get her hopes up. she insisted that if i help her she would gladly pay me and then she said "i'll give you something now and so you know you can trust me,and if you help me i'll give you a lot more." "okay" i said,not one to turn down $ too insistently.
i woke up and i was going to go to the bathroom.something caught my eye first though.in the midst of all my crumpled bills there was 1 perfectly straight $5 bill.i freaked out,not in a scared way but i was definitely creeped,because there was a white hair on this 5 and it was stuck on with what to me looked a helluva lot like blood.i took it out and asked 4 different people what it looked like. "white hair stuck on with blood",i didnt tell them about the dream i had until after i got their opinions without giving them any sort of suggestions.
so i went back thinking more straight now and counted the money. a 20 was there balled up along with 7 ones and 2 5s,the "bloody" one was the third.so i thought,okay the "blood and hair"is a bit weird following that dream,but here i have the same amount of money,$42, and with the same amount of bills.so i pulled the hair off and tossed it in the trash and washed the "blood" off with peroxide and soap(it was hard as hell to get whatever it was off)and didnt think much of it for a few days.
now three days after this i hadnt gotten any new money that wasnt put directly into my wallet and quite neatly(i am usually extremely neat with my $ and hate it crumpled,on that night i was tired and did'nt have my wallet,and so i crumplednote:its an extremely rare thing*).i was looking for a notebook i had lyrics in so i could get them to the 2nd vocalist in my band,well former band.as i found it on the floor near my desk,i saw something near my tv stand.it was a crumpled and balled up 5 dollar bill.at 1st i couldnt see how it had gotten here,then it hit me.the only thing that makes sense is that it fell here that night i came back with my crumpled moneyand just threw it onto the desk,i literally had not looked down there for anything,had no reason to.so when i counted out the 42 dollars total with this bloody hairy $5 bill,one of the original bills was on the floor and thus not counted.so the total i had was $47.$5 more than i actually had.
so i had a dream that a dead lady with white hair was gonna give me money,then got $5 out of nowhere that just happened to have what appeared to be blood on it and what was for sure a long white hair.
in short i dont know that it was this woman who put the $5 there,but that makes the most sense to me.truthfully the bill stink and it was the 1st 1 i spent just so i could get rid of it haha.her leaving it makes more sense to me though than it materializing out of thin air with white hair attached.
that said,since i dont feel sure enough that that $5 bill was from the lady in my dreams,i also dont feel sure enough to say that the pennies are from ghosts either.i do trust that if youre so sure theres no chance you guys could have dropped the pennies,then this is indeed the case.i am sure enough to say my $5 bill was completely unaccounted for aside from the ghost leaving it for me theory.in your case maybe a ghost leaving pennies makes the most sense as well. i wish i had a ghost,or anything leaving me money of any size constantly,beats claims of ghosts draining batteries for sure haha. but man if ghosts left me $5 as often as it seems they leave you pennies i would be a smiling fella

Originally posted on Freescale's Smart Mobile Devices Embedded Beat Blog
About two years ago, I joined the Freescale sensors team, which focuses on accelerometers, pressure sensors, and touch sensors.
Prior to that, I spent a number of years in the Freescale's microcontroller solutions group, where I was an architect for several digital signal controller and microcontroller product families. One of the first things I learned when I moved into the sensors group was that certain "rules of the game" that relate to microcontroller design needed to be adapted when dealing with sensors. An example is package selection. With most microcontrollers, package selection is based upon number of functional and power pins required, PCB assembly processes targeted and (sometimes) thermal characteristics. Performance considerations are often secondary, if they exist at all. Sensors interact with the real world. Mechanical stresses introduced during both package assembly and PCB mounting can affect electrical performance of the device; often showing up as additional offset or variation of performance with temperature. Even the compound used for die attach has a demonstrable effect on sensor performance, and must be considered early in the design process.
An early rendering of the MMA9550L package
In my last post, I introduced the MMA9550L Xtrinsic Motion Sensing Platform. Now I'd like to share an overview of the design philosophies incorporated into this product. With one foot in the world of sensors and another in that of microcontrollers, I'm in a rather unique position to comment on design tradeoffs. I compiled the product specification for the MMA9550L and worked with the design teams who designed and built the various components. During the course of the project I met and learned from a large number of talented engineers in a variety of fields. Here they are, in no particular order.
Small size: Cell phones are one of the markets targeted by this device. PCB real estate is precious and even package height is important, as it can be a limiting factor in the thickness of today's super thin smart phones. The product definition team was told early on that we needed to target a 3X3X1 mm package. Bear in mind that this tiny package needs to enclose two die: the MEMS transducer and the ASIC controller. The package dimensions placed pressure on the ASIC die size, and we subsequently moved to a smaller CMOS process node to accommodate all the circuitry needed. A detailed die size estimator was created very early in the definition cycle, and feature mix was constantly measured against the real estate cost. An LGA package was selected because it allowed us some ability to route signals within the package, which in turn allowed us to minimize die area allocated to the controller pad ring.
Power: The MMA9550L is one of the first products in the market intended for use as a smart sensor hub. Data from multiple sources attached to the MMA9550L master I2C port can be consolidated and pre-processed before sending it along to a host processor. The MM9550 includes significantly more intelligence than analog and state-machine-based digital accelerometers1. Yet its power requirements will still be measured against those products. As an example, at a sample rate of 100 samples per second, in normal mode of operation, the MMA8450Q typically consumes a bit over 70uA. In shutdown mode, that drops to less than 1uA. Conceptually, a state-machine-based product, compared to a microprocessor-based product on the same technology, will always consume less power. Dedicated data paths don't include memory and instruction overhead associated with an MCU. The trick is to bring the MCU-based system power down to a level where the benefits arising from the MCU outweigh the incremental power consumed by that MCU and associated memories. Low power requirements impacted the following:
- Process selection: We chose an ultralow leakage process, with CMOS logic running off a native 1.8V supply. No regulator was needed for the logic supply, minimizing DC bias currents.
- Memories: We scouted IP sources both inside and outside of Freescale to select the most power conscious memories we could find. This included both flash and RAM blocks specifically designed for low power.
- AFE: The analog-front-end was enhanced for improved noise and sensitivity at minimal power levels. The architect who designed this block measured power consumed in micro-coulombs/ADC conversion.
- CPU: A few years ago, I was a member of the team that designed the first members of Freescale's "Flexis family" of parts. We created socket compatible 8-bit and 32-bit devices, allowing users to trade off cost versus performance. Along the way, we discovered that for any given task, our 32-bit ColdFire devices consumed significantly less power than their 8-bit counterparts. At first this seemed counter intuitive, until we realized that the ColdFire-based parts needed many fewer instructions to accomplish the same task. After comparing area, power consumption and code size requirements for a variety of architectures (including S08 and ARM architectures), we ultimately settled on the same ColdFire V1 architecture used in the Flexis family. An S08 implementation would have been smaller, but we wanted to keep power down. The added performance from the 32-bit architecture was a big boost as well.
Clocks: In addition to the AFE improvements already mentioned, we spent a lot of time considering how we were going to clock the system. Standard MCUs often have multiple on-chip and off-chip clock sources, including crystal oscillators, relaxation oscillators and phase-locked-loops. Because of the noise sensitive nature of an inertial sensor, we kept our clock sources to exactly one. An on-chip oscillator runs at a nominal full rate of 8MHz, a reduced rate of 62.5KHz (typical), or can be turned off entirely. The clock generation and distribution system can shut down power to the CPU and digital peripherals while the AFE (running from 8MHz) takes measurements during the device's "quiet time". After the CPU has completed software tasks associated with each sample frame, it slows down the clock to 62.5KHz, where it remains until the next sample interval. Clock distribution to unused peripherals can be disabled to save even more power. Data and frame rates can be changed on a frame-by-frame basis if desired. And all of the above is software configurable, allowing changes on-the-fly to adjust to environmental conditions.
Data from inertial measurements is placed in a series of mailboxes, which can be read by a host processor via the slave port interface. That interface must be available to the host 100% of the time, even when the on-chip oscillator has been completely shut down to conserve power. I2C and SPI ports on most standard microcontrollers will sample externally supplied clock and data pins with an internal clock running at least 2X the communications rate. MCU designers use this technique because it eliminates (by design) metastability risks associated with moving data across clock domains. The low power nature of the MMA9550L didn't allow us to use an over-clocked scheme. Instead, we designed custom circuits to negotiate the clock domain boundaries with no corruption of data.
Intelligence: The ColdFire V1 architecture includes options to support a range of cost/performance tradeoffs. The instance used in the MMA9550L includes a 16X16 hardware multiplier to improve performance on DSP-intensive tasks.
Another unique aspect of the design is a firmware-based flash controller. Most Freescale MCUs include a hardware-based controller which is responsible for implementing flash program and erase functions. Since we already have a CPU available, we decided to implement these functions using code stored in an on-chip ROM. The ROM-based controller implements the same functions as a hardware controller, but consumes less than half the area. Once the Freescale marketing team realized we had ROM on the device, it was quickly expanded to include bootloader functions and a ROM-based command interpreter (CI). The CI contains functions for reading/writing memory (including flash), pulling the device configuration from memory, protecting memory, running a CRC over memory and more. Ultimately, we doubled the size of the ROM from our original estimate of 2K bytes to 4K bytes.
Flash memory blocks typically include a lot of area overhead for sense amplifiers and charge pumps. It's more efficient to include one large flash block than two blocks of half the capacity. Freescale will be shipping devices with approximately ½ of the 16Kbyte flash pre-loaded with a task scheduler and algorithms for sample processing, trim and gesture recognition. We needed mechanisms to protect Freescale code while enabling easy integration of customer code. The solution was to include features in the firmware-based flash controller for "locking" pages of flash memory. Lock status is automatically checked when code or development tools attempt to program and/or erase any page in memory. Software hooks are provided for designers to add their own tasks to the frame by frame schedule of activities. Customer code can be added/modified as desired without risk to Freescale supplied software routines.
I should note that the device has a hardware security feature which restricts the debug port and ROM CI from accessing memory inside the device. The ROM CI also includes functions for data rights management. This allows software-based functions to be locked and/or unlocked using a "shared-secret" handshaking protocol. Lock status is stored in a reserved location in flash memory which is normally invisible to code running on the device.
By now, I think you can see why I've titled this post "The Zen of Sensor Design". During any design process, there is always a constant tension between cost, function and time-to-market. Sensor projects bring together a wider set of engineering disciplines than most semiconductor projects. This project leveraged a wide breadth of Freescale technologies to create a new class of product that breaks existing sensor paradigms. The science involved was intense, but artistry still played a role, and compromise between competing requirements was one of the few constants. Navigating that mix to produce a balanced product took remarkable team work and the courage to change the way sensors will be seen in the future. I think it's worth the effort.
1) By "state-machine-based" I am referring to products which include dedicated (and fixed) analog and digital data path circuitry. This class of product often has many configuration options, but ultimately is not programmable in the CPU sense of the word. An example of this class of product is the MMA8450Q, shown below.

I've provided these scripts as downloads whenever I've presented about replication...but not everyone who has worked with replication has been to one of my presentations (or had access to the downloads afterwards) so I'm posting them here.
The first script in my toolbox shows all of the articles and columns in each article for all transactional publications in a published database. It's pretty straightforward - just execute the script in the published database on the publisher. Note that because it uses the FOR XML PATH directive it must be run on SQL 2005 or higher.
Here's the script:

I actually cleared the mausoleum before destroying the blocking totem. I just dropped my builders on it, chased the blue masks away by talking to them, & lured the orange ones away with the kids or nursing mothers. This was one of the first things I did when starting the game. When I got my first master builder, I had him dismantle the blocking totem, & none of the heathens came to stop him.
you can use the butterfly with the kids arround the yello mask they will keep them in the same arrea... try arround the chef that is sitting in the jungle or in the place were there is the seconfdfire near the lake or the pool... i used them all the way of the game to keep the kids out of the way including the one with the mask.
During one of the island events early in my game, the chief joined my tribe. He aged and has been dead a loooong time, and now, of course, I can't do anything with my necklace (it says, "the chief's not home". only he never comes home, because he doesn't exist anymore...) Anybody experience this or find a way to finish the puzzle anyway?
There is really very little way to get a villager to gain devotion if he does not already have at least a little bit at maturity. If they reach 14 and have even the smallest amount, set their main skill on devotion (by checking it at the details page) and then make them begin to polish the statue but yank them away and set them next to it before they complete the polish task. If they do not begin devotion, then try also to set them so they "see" another master devotee in devotion mode. If none of that works, put that person on your "destined for the mausoleum" list.
I am trying to complete the speed building contest with the master purple masked heathan. I have tried to place the speed symbol on my master builder and then place him on the block to build, and also I have tried placing him on the block to build and then placing the speed symbol on him. Either way I do it he seems to start building and then just disapears and I find him somewhere else on my map. He never finishes the contest? Please help, what am I doing wrong?
here is a very simple way to demolish the hungry totem:
The noni guards can't see your villagers from the bottom right corner of the hungry totem so just drop all of your builders there, on occasion a random heathen when walk up to the totem, if this happens wait till they go away and just do it again
To "halfjillian" I had problems with that too.What I found out through trial and error was: (this is regards to converting the "Heathen Master Builder")
You have to put the "warp speed" on the "Master Builder" NOT the Heathen Master Builder. Grab him quick cause he zooms off verrrrrry fast. Place him on the building site quickly and the contest starts. I had to do this several times cause once the Heathen Master Builder starts the contest and your Master Builder didn't start it first, the contest is over before it even started. I hope this helps and I was clear enough. Good luck!
Hi all.
Somehow I have 109 people. I would have had 110 if one hadn't died while I was away. :( I think I was able to get that many people because I kept having babies ALL the time until it said there wasn't enough housing to support more. Then I converted all the yellow and red masked heathens.
Also, I have all trophies but Jenga, which I guess I can't get now, and the triplet trohpy. I guess I'll have to let some peeps die to get them to have more babies.
Anyway, fun game!
Best hint I have seen is how to dispose of the "rascal" in the orange mask.
use a child to get rascal attention. While child in hover mode slowly guide rascal to place out of the way. When you have rascal where you want to keep her/him, then before letting go of your tribe child press the M key. This will bring you to the overall map. Click done and your child will hover and keep rascal in place. this info was obtained by another post i saw on this blog.
Hi! I've started to play this game short time ago but I'm struggling with a problem: food. I can't get any nonis because my villagers are always scared by red and orange masks. Is there any other place where I can get food? If not, how do I do to dismantle the FOOD TOTEM?
Please answer me ...
Hey guys, have read _ALL_ of the comments, and none of them are answering my problem:
The blocking totem was one of the last totems i torned down, because it took me a long time to train the master builders. my villagers began to die, and their dead bodies laid in front of the mausoleum. Then, when i had finnaly brought down the blocking totem, and cleared the mausoleum, some of the first dead bodies had dissapered. I think that about half of my dead were gone, and only 1 of the first 5 villagers you choosed, are in the mausoleum.
Does anyone know why? Is it might a glitch?
KATE I'm intruiged about your problem? as someone who has spent real time hours staring at a piece of beach, or a field, or constantly scrolling all over the place waiting on collectables, how is it that one every 3 minutes is a stretch for you? That seems kinda good to me, and I've played all the VVs. Does using the mac version mean you normally get really frequent collectables on each game? I have before spent 3 hours at a time staring at a pond waiting on fish scales and not seen one!!
Sometimes they come frequently for me, sometimes it seems like forever!
Finally, I reached energy level of over 800 yesterday and had the earthquake ability. I used it on the heathens then waited until the lights over their heads went out and did it again. I did this 6 times with no luck at converting them. I went to bed rather disappointed, got up this morning and my energy level is now 789 and do not have the earthquake power anymore. What did I do wrong???
As to the Building Contest puzzle...the tip to use the time warp is great. I see many people having problems catching the villager after they put time warp on them. This is what I did and it worked the very first time. Put you game on pause (space bar) apply the time warp and pick up your villager. Unpause with the spacebar. Hold the villager for a moment. he will start shaking his head really fast. place him on the contest and he starts right away. I did all of this at the site and it made it much easier.
Well, what I did to help me get A master builder, was convert the heathen one. Here's how:
First, I trained a builder by fixing out huts, and trying to upgrade my statue. (Not very much a spoiler, is it?) Because of this, one of them fixed, and fixed, and fixed... huts. He got to adept (low). Then, the statue... I got the
time warp,
and when during the building contest, I "sped things up". Lastly, he was an expert, and I can polish the statue, I have the nursery... etc. I trained my builder before his death, teach the students. The students grow up, and you know the rest. I'm still working on this method. (You can also use the G/god power
Fog of Doom (or Death).
Note: Do not use
Time Warp
on the heathen.
Hope I helped! ;)
Oops, forgot one thing.
Knowledge Totem:
Do dismantle the Knowledge Totem, first dismantle the Hungry Totem, so the aggressive heathens won't get in your way. Then, get
G/god power. Have some people dismantles the Knowledge Totem, and use lightning when heathens chase after you. Not necessarily the way I did it... I think. (...)
Your welcome!
Ok I've converted all my heathens, it seems like it took 50 earthquakes or something. How do I use the earthquake to reset a project? I've tried putting the earthquake on the object but the villagers just gather around celebrating. Also, I used the revive on one of my recently deceased, but they appear like a ghost then they're bones again. What am I doing wrong?
I have an easier solution for Puzzles 6 & 7 -
Mausoleum & Blocking Totem
You do not need to dismantle the blocking totem to open up the mausoleum. Rather, send a bunch of villagers to the mausoleum and they will start undoing the blue villagers work.
To stop the blue villagers, talk to them until they have lights, then talk to them again so they run away. Your villagers can then tear down their construction for a few minutes undisturbed.
Later, when you have a master builder, no one will hinder you when you want to knock down the blocking totem
(except the same orange kid who wants to ruin everything - use butterflies on the lake for him/her).
I have read through the walkthrough and read everyone's comments and have started two previous games. Compiling the "best" advice from all sources and using my own discoveries, I have come up with a stress-free and entertaining way to succeed at this game. I am not all the way to the end, but current progress suggests my plan will succeed! :)
Villagers chosen at the beginning:
All 24 yrs or younger.
All runners!
18 yr old male
11 yr old female child
2 nursing mothers
1 non-nursing female
Then quickly do the following:
Convert the doctor.
Lure orange masks with pregos and freeze. :)
Build grainery.
Destroy hungry totem.
Use child to collect mushrooms/relics like crazy.
Set male to farming, female to building love shack, doctor to building statue (when finished, to love shack). Spread devotion skill to all eligible adults always. Have 2 more children with original pregos. (Population is now 10).
Send builders to small hut. When 2nd set of babies are born, set mothers to research.
Note: Do not destroy knowing totem! (Why? To keep the two red masks in check throughout, and away from the mausoleum!)
When lightning is available, start the fire and destroy the pain totem.
Buy next level of tech skills in this order: construction, learning, science, spirituality, food mastery, medicine.
To initially train a builder, send to the mausoleum until "trainee" - skill is picked up faster there, and only blue masks are there. Then send trainee villager to build whatever project you're on. To train a farmer or scientist or doctor faster, "babysit" by clicking, and watch for the "this villager has improved ..." Then pick up and drop to start learning again. (Food isn't deducted from the bush or farm until it is dropped at the grainery, and research points are gained when the skill is increased.)
Repair the aqueduct as soon as you have a master scientist.
CROSS TRAIN! (For the women, I trained each in all skills to trainee, so she would be ready for any task once the baby was weaned.) As soon as any villager hits master, move to another job.
When enough children are present, destroy the hollow totem. When energy is high enough, refill the lake immediately after a storm.
I have converted some of my blue heathens, and two of the purple, but I have decided to wait until my population is maxed to convert any more.
Current state of the game:
Population: 35
# of "Candidate" villagers for Jack of all Trades (so far): 13
# of children: 22
# of yellow heathens: 7
# of blue heathens: 8
# of purple heathens: 2
# of red heathens: 3
Chief: 1 (I've realized he's a runner-hater, so he's going to be teaching devotion later! lol)
Oldest villager: 36
Energy: 425 (Relics collection complete! I think having only relics available made the rares easier to come by. Also, use the spacebar for pause! I forgot to do this once and lost my golden urn the first time it came around. *cry*)
2nd level of each skill purchased so far.
The children were causing a problem: When a game of tag or jumping contest would begin, Rascal would get free. Solution? EASY! Freeze all children in convenient locations so they can be pulled down as necessary when a mushroom or relic appears. (Looks really cool from map view!) :)
NOTE: Floating villagers DO get sick, so keep an eye on the detail screen.
Rack up tech points to buy last level in this order: construction, medicine, spirituality, science, learning, food mastery. When energy level hits 700, I will start rejuvenating as needed and also destroy the knowing totem so I can start the tech collection. (Well, first the blocking totem, so I don't have to deal with getting the reds away.) When that is complete and my population is at 100, I will start converting heathens again. I am also holding off on building the clothing shack to save it for the jenga trophy. The rainbow totem CAN be destroyed without it, but it takes a LOT of bees and patience. (I did it in my last game before starting this one.) The Rainbow totem can be done at the same time as the Knowing. As soon as this happens, you will no longer have the blue masks blocking up the mausoleum, so future building skill will have to come from polishing. But it's been nice so far to have a sustainable building skill project!)
So by my count, I should be able to get 121-123 villagers overall, depending on the chance of multiple births with my last prego. :)
How long did it take most of you to convert the orange and red heathens at the end of the game? That is all I have to do and I'm getting really tired of waiting for them to convert. I've earthquaked them about 6-7 times. It's getting boring now. Is there a shortcut? Maybe? I hope? I mean, come on. It's the end of the game. Let's finish it and move on already. Help!
to cool man 48:
to get the missing eye, first you need to clear the mausoleum, and after finishing it, a pan will appear at the left corner near the mausoleum. just drop an adult and he/she will bring it to the pot near the river. drop another villager and he will pan the gold and repeat it until the pot are full with gold. take it to the fire. after some times, it will change to some gold thing. just drop another villager and he will bring it to the totem
Help please- I have level 2 technologies on all but science which I have a level 3. I am stuck at an energy of 414 and when I try to create more babies I get a statement stating not enough housing available. I currently have 2 houses but do not have the foundation to build a third hut. Any suggestions on how to increase energy level? Thanks.
I always start my tribe:
1 girl, 6 yrs old to collect things.
1 boy, 14 yrs old
The rest 14 yr old girls.
I run over to the hospital right away and get one of the hethens converted for an extra adult.
About the time they turn 18 and are able to mate, I have the food situation under control and the 6 yr old is getting to old to collect anymore. It gives them all more time to work on their skills, especially the builders.
I pick the 3 that advance the faster as by builders.
You can't cheat on your first village, nevertheless if you have several you may "import" the godly powers from one to the others, you only have to choose the power (it imports the higher one only) pulse menu, change tribe, choose the other tribe and use the power, even if you don't have all the points needed.
I'm finding if I use the Earthquake power, I get relics to show up. It seems I get at least 1 good one every time.
I've tried using it in different areas to see if it changes anything. I've only noticed I have better luck using it near the science side, near the foot bridge or any where along that side.
I have collected all the pieces to the necklace, it has been completly put together. I place the eye in the missing eye statue and that area has cleared...BUT I keep getting a message that my cheif is not home to bring him the necklace, he never is!!! I have read that a few other people have had the same problem, but no solutions were given. PLEASE help....I spent a lot of time on this game (without the help of guides before) to be this stuck now lol
I followed the instructions for "Go, Speed Racer, Go", but
even though my villager won the building contest, the expected heathen conversion did not occur. My guy finished well before she did. She was impressed, but sat down to stare into space without converting.
Anyone else have that problem with this one?
Hi, have any one converted all heathens??? I just did and all villagers fixed the ugly village, the place where heathens were all the time by the end of the game...I always thought there should be a way to fix that ugly little village and now is beautiful, never thought i was going to happened by converting all heathens, it was a beautiful surprise to me.
Here is a trick I learned for a fast food refill, if you have at least 150 energy and several children.
Cast "Bloom" on the ground. Several mushrooms, including several red mushrooms will sprout, along with some irrelevent flowers. As soon as they are big, hit Spacebar to pause and quickly drop a child onto as many 'shrooms as you have children for. The 'shrooms don't stay long, even paused, so concentrate on the red ones if you don't have more than a few kids. Unpause and you will get several hundred food in a few seconds.
I'm curious. Does placement of the buildings - huts, clothes, etc - affect your ability to find collectibles? In other words, could the place I build a hut cover up a place where relics and science collectibles show up, so that I cannot see them to get them? Just wondering since I am playing my fifth tribe and I have yet to get all the collectibles.
i did the glitch where you use powers in another game:
chose (power)click menu, change user, play.
you can use your powe in another game =D but mine keeps automaticaly to grant youth, whatever one i chose, which is my latest power
can anyone help me???
but if ANYBODY hears about vv6 TELL TELL TELL
this is my first comment, thanks for reading
Ok I really need help, I had a mommy who was in her 30s probably and she had triplets. She was nursing them for like 3 days so I got pretty desperate cause it still says nursing for 246mins. So I used the grant youth, now I have a 11 year old carrying triplets and it still says 246mins. Any idea what to do?
The guide says to reset the yellow and red masks to wait until the light above the heads go off and then use earthquake... but while you are waiting the faith is slowly going down again and it takes much longer and more times... I just kept using earthquake as soon as my energy recharged while the light was still on and they were all converted after about 6 uses... took about an hour and they convrted 2 each time and they were all done... if I'd waited I'd be waiting an hour at least before I could even use it once again... so much easier to NOT wait.
Share tip:
After converting all heathens,i use power of blossom to the floral camp, there will grow up mushrooms soon, especially 'shroom. You can collect and increase mushroom collections. The camp became mushroom field.
Trophy about pool party
How to make it happen to have 25-people pool party? help.
Here's how I make the game a little more enjoyable by getting rid of the yellow-mask child for pretty much as long as I want and without hovering a character.
"Kite" the heathen child (with another child or an adult) to near the bottom of the waterfall (by the mausoleum). Get the heathen child as close to the water as possible, then:
(1) quickly drop your kiting character somewhere away
(2) use bees on the heathen child (if you have him/her near the bottom of the waterfall, this will cause him/her to run into the water, then
(3) quickly use butterflies AWAY from the heathen child (I always do them near the fallen log in the open field).
All the other kids will run to the butterflies, but the heathen child will be "stuck" in the water... and he/she will stay there until (1) you call a storm, or (2) an island event happens. I accidentally discovered this "glitch" when I got so annoyed with the little rascal costing me a rare relic, that I retaliated with bees. Immature, I know... but what the hey. Note that if one of the blue-masked heathen children gets caught by the bees, he/she too will be caught in the water. Not so with an adult heathen, which will leave the water.
Like Frieda's hint to "lock up rascal" especially at the beginning of game when you don't have an extra kid or baby momma to hover and lock.
Pool party is rather easy. Place 5 adults (14 & up) in pool and watch what happens! For the star (trophy) you must have @ least 25 adults. For fun place 5 adults @ top corner of waterfall and watch what happens. Really cute!
Are you seriously stuck? You posted on the 1st you had revive power. You say you have earthquake power so I think you know how to 'revive' the lake.
Okay I am stumped. I still need to convert the master builder heathen, and i have tried twice. I followed the guide and used the power when you make one of your master builders young so they are fast. I first dropped my master builder on the challenge then i paused the game and used the power. i did this in both attempts. Please tell me if i did something wrong! I really need help! :(
For those stuck on the master builder heathen puzzle... I may have an easier way to beat her. Just find an adult villager who likes running and make them a builder. Wait until they are atleast adept before challenging the master builder. I am in the process of teaching my runner to build by polishing the statue repededly. Unfortunately there is nothing left to build so I have him do that and fix the huts. Hope this works! :)

How do we combat sexism in football?
January 25, 2011 Leave a comment
In recent years, women have started to have more and more of a substantial role in football. Karen Brady has led the way off the pitch, currently as vice-chairman of West Ham United Football Club and previously as CEO of Birmingham City Football Club. On the pitch, Wendy Toms was the first ever female assistant referee, officiating in the football league as early as 1994.
So why when women have been a part of men's football for so long is there still sexism in our game? -read on>

I've been trying to trace something out using Facebook and I was all the way back by about 8 months and accidentally clicked the wrong thing and now I'd have to start all over (mind you, it took about 2 hours to get to 8 months).
Is there any easier way of seeing all of my Facebook statuses and other activity from the past, easily? (As in, without the whole scroll-click-scroll-click thing.)
