Archive for March, 2014

Being healthier and fitter seems to always be on our to-do list.  Sometimes knowing where to start can be a bit overwhelming.

I say: start with sleep.

It wasn’t until after I had my son and experienced serious sleep deprivation that I became very aware of the effect not enough sleep can have on your life.

Eight hours or more each night is a basic necessity to be healthy.

Now this can be a challenge when you have a lot on your plate, it is for me, but it is possible and should be a top priority.

Just follow these simple steps:

step one
Review: How much sleep are you getting most nights.

step two
Do you find yourself with these feelings during your day?

  • impatience
  • fatigue
  • grumpiness
  • lack of drive
  • lethargy
  • over-eating
  • caffeine/sugar addiction

If you do, I would say this is a good indicator that you’re not getting enough sleep.

Lack of sleep can also lead to depression.

it’s very simple
Go to bed at least eight and half hours or more before you have to get up. This will give you half an hour to settle in (and read if you want to), and then drift off for a full eight hours. I know this seems incredibly basic (and it is) but sometimes we are so busy that we don’t even notice that we’re not even giving ourselves enough time to get a good night’s sleep. Also consider: wouldn’t it be nice to wake up naturally in your own time when you’ve had enough sleep instead of with an alarm clock?

When you’re away on holiday, how many hours do you sleep per night when you don’t have to up at certain time?  This is the amount of sleep your body naturally needs.  Strive to sleep this many hours every night.

have trouble falling asleep?

  • cut down on caffeine, especially after 12pm, or better yet cut caffeine out completely
  • don’t eat close to bed time (give yourself at least a few hours), especially sugar, as your body will still be busy digesting (& will store it all as fat since you won’t be burning any of it off since you’re going to bed)
  • also eating before bed will probably cause you to have to get up in the night to go the washroom
  • are you getting any exercise during the day? all that pent up energy needs to get out, good for the body and the soul.
  • perhaps there’s a lot on your mind, consider talking to a friend or a counselor – flush it out!
  • try naturopathic products for sleep, in tea form or pill form
  • if you think, “I can’t fall asleep” or “I can’t sleep eight hours”, then you won’t be able to, you have to think, “I can!”

but I don’t have enough time to sleep 8 hours a night!

If this was your first thought then consider how much more efficient and productive you will be when you’re getting the proper sleep.  Also, we are not as “on the ball” when we haven’t had enough sleep.

afternoon pick me ups
Another indicator that you’re not getting enough sleep is feeling tired in the afternoon. (Could also be that you’re dehydrated, check: have you had any water today? or maybe you forgot to have lunch?)

LISTEN to your body, it’s trying to tell you something!

Instead of ignoring it and grabbing a cup of coffee or a treat to give you energy, consider doing this instead:

– drink a big glass of water

– go outside and stretch your legs, take in some deep breathes of fresh air

– take a quiet break, sit down or lie down if you can – try doing nothing to recharge

– if you’re able, take a power nap – always does wonders, even just 10 minutes, careful not to nap too long later in the afternoon or you’ll have trouble falling a sleep that night.

– learn to meditate and take a meditation break.

Try this for two weeks and you will be amazed, you will feel like a new person!

Happy Sleeping!

Comfort Food

10 Sep

Everyone’s got ’em. You know, those foods that you crave when you’re having one of THOSE days. Maybe they take you back to childhood or maybe they’re a more recent discovery; but, either way, they’re the foods that can make you literally sigh with relief.

For me, the list is fairly short: roasted chicken, soft chocolate chip cookies, matzoh ball or orange-ginger-lime soup, samosas, aaaaaaaaaaand….red wine.  No, it’s not food, but it’s verrah, verrah comforting after a long day. What all of these food(-like) items have in common is their ability to remove stress and replace it with happy memories. Even the making of these dishes can be therapeutic! A really good stress relief? Pounding cutlets with a pan or rolling pin. That feels goooooooooood.

How about you? What are your particular favourite comfort foods?

    ahh comfort food. When I arrive home in Montreal there is always some type of vegetable stew; usually with onions, garlic, celery (lots of celery leaves), zucchini, potatoes, red peppers, tomato, fresh basil, mint, and maybe an egg with parmesean added at the end (egg sometimes parmesean always). Eaten with some nice hardy bread. Or my grandma will make a simple string beans with potatoes in a light tomato sauce. Lately, spagetthi carbonara entered into the comfort food zone for me. Olive oil, pancetta, garlic, percorino, pepper, egg and a little milk. Finally, a medium rare rib steak on the grill works wonders as well. For dessert Tiramisu and a good espresso and call it a day.

Peanut Butter Pie

Peanut Butter Pie

Would you believe that I didn’t own a food processor until recently? 500+ recipes I’ve made and blogged about over the past 3 years, and yet I didn’t have this kitchen appliance. I thought about getting one from time to time, but I continued to put off the purchase. I finally read enough recipes that I needed a food processor for, so I took some gift cards and took the plunge, buying a 14-cup Kitchenaid model. I think it’s the most expensive thing I’ve ever bought for my kitchen myself.

I haven’t done much with the food processor yet; I made hot chocolate mix and sliced vegetables for salad, but that’s about it. One of the things I planned to use it for was making homemade almond and peanut butter at some point. So of course when I saw Alton Brown make peanut butter, and then Peanut Butter Pie, I could hardly wait to use the recipe to test my new food processor.

When we made the pie, we wondered why it was called Peanut Butter Pie and not Chocolate-Peanut Butter Pie. It was easy to understand once we ate a few bites. The chocolate was barely noticeable in the bites – the pie was overwhelmingly peanut butter. Not that it’s a bad thing. The chocolate gave a little contrast to highlight the peanut butter, but wasn’t particularly noticeable in general. The pie was very rich – an 8th of a pie was 650 calories! – so we cut it into slightly more manageable 12ths.

Peanut Butter Pie

It would have been cheaper to use store-bought peanut butter to make the pie, but that would have made it incredibly sweet, since peanut butter usually has a lot of sugar added to it already. I thought it was a great pie with plain unsalted peanuts but I can imagine it would shine if you had Spanish peanuts, which Alton Brown recommended.

If you like peanut butter, this is definitely a pie for you! Given the high calorie content, I probably wouldn’t make it again for just me and Alex, but I think I’d make it again to share!

Want more peanut butter? Try Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake, Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake, Chocolate Peanut Butter Bites, or Banana Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting.

Alton Brown's Peanut Butter Pie

A delicious and rich peanut butter pie, a la Alton Brown.

Author: Leona Konkel
  • 6 1/2 ounces chocolate animal crackers/wafers
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted
  • 15 ounces peanuts
  • 1/2 teaspoon table salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons honey
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted
  • 3 ounces powdered sugar 3/4 cup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 5 tablespoons cream
  • 2 ounces chopped chocolate or chocolate chips
  1. I used the food processor to make a crust for the pie. I took 6.5 ounces of chocolate animal crackers and ground them with a little sugar until finely ground. I drizzled in 6 tablespoons of melted butter while running the machine. I pressed the moist crumbs along the bottom and sides of my glass pie pan, and baked the crust for 10 minutes at 350F.

  1. While the crust cooled completely, I made the peanut butter and filling. I took 15 ounces of peanuts (almost all of a jar) and ground them with honey and salt for 1 minute. I scraped down the sides of the bowl, and then drizzled in some vegetable oil while the machine ran. (I would have used peanut oil if I'd had any.) I ground the peanut butter for 2 minutes, until it was creamy. (It was fun to watch it come together!)
  2. I added 4 tablespoons of butter to the peanut butter and processed the mixture for a minute. I added powdered sugar and vanilla and processed for another 2 minutes, until the mixture was creamy and smooth. I spread the peanut butter filling into the cooled pie shell and smoothed it out. (The filling will retain the shape you leave it in, so try not to leave ridges or peaks.) I baked the pie for 10 minutes.
  1. While the filling cooled, I made chocolate ganache to top it with. I heated 5 tablespoons of cream briefly in the microwave and added chopped chocolate to it to soften. After a few minutes, I stirred it to melt the chocolate. Some of the pieces were too big, so I returned it to the microwave for a few seconds to finish melting the chocolate.
  2. I smoothed the ganache over the top of the pie. I let the pie cool briefly, and then placed it in the fridge for it to chill. A couple of hours later, we eagerly cut into the pie.

AC to DC, Ripple frequency ?

    today my technitian said that when we rectify the AC to DC we get more value of voltage , e.g 24ACV after rectification would give more than 24V , is that true ? and why ?
  2. paulktreg

    AAC Fanatic!

    Jun 2, 2008
    AC measurement is an RMS value so its peak voltage will be approximately 34V and peak to peak, either side of zero will be 68V. When you full wave rectify the AC you are effectively bringing the negative phase of the AC positive so you end up with a positive series of cycles from zero to 34V peak. This is now DC even if it's still a series of positive half cycles of a sine wave. Introduce a smoothing capacitor to give 34VDC. Hop that makes sense?

    The 4 mosfets were Replaced the mosfets they blew again Irf3205 TO 220 case. Can the IRFP064N with a TO 247 case be substituted they both list N-CH 55V 110A for specs but case style is different do both the irf3205 and irf p064n have the same pin out? What else should I Test on this inverter. None of the ic's are burnt however I seen a smd resistor attached to one of the mosfets on the back of the board looks like it cooked printing not readable at all I know the value though. I appreciate any help with this. thank you

    Inverters are nice toys, I have a little 150 watt unit -- however...

    If you are building from scratch, or repairing, I would opt for something a sight more substantial than a TO-220 package, and put them on a relatively large heatsink.

    Granted, these things often don't provide much room for upgrades...

    Tiger power 1500 pure sine, whats on the heat sync are u1660 rectifiers and irf 3205 mosfets. As for picture what parts of the board do you need to see the most? The picture 856 behind the red & black wire is a transistor it has brownish flakey substance on the very top of it looks like it might be bad. On the back of the board there are smd resistors with 100 & 472 on em I tested them in circuit the 100 read 5 were 11-12 ohms and one was 5.00 and another 25 the meter was in continuity setting. If you need more pictures or info just let me know.

Speed and indominus

Does Indominus speed change as it levels up? Battled a guy with a lvl 20 indo and his was faster than my Stegodeus, but my lvl 17 indominus was slower than his same lvl Stegodeus. I used Stegodeus 1st vs his indo, so there was no speed decrease on mine.

They got same speed so it’s whoever selects first pretty sure stealth Nerf cause I swear Indom was faster than stegod before tournament update

She was not. They’ve had the same speed for some time now. Indom actually used to be slower with a speed of 106, but was buffed several weeks ago.

Ah OK. Thanks for clarifying I guess mine didn’t get picked enough to know :joy:

Higher level is faster, you’re indominus that was the same level as a stegodeus went first because you picked your attack first.

Yeah I spam attack button before it appears just by habit from raptor meta days lol relying on battle experience to select the best move for the current situation before the buttons animate is key for this to work

Lol me too. I usually spam my stegocera or velociraptor when it first goes out so that I’ll attack first.

I bought my first SPEEDY in Paris!

  1. I'm back from Paris - the city was gorgeous (as usual) and I had an amazing time - while I was there, I checked out 3 of the 4 Gerard Darel shops - Truthfully just didn't love the bags enough to buy one - It had nothing to do with the fact that they were on every girl's arm. I just couldn't get excited enough - so the newly redone LV flagship store on the corner of the Champs and Avenue George V was a block from my hotel and I wanted to get something in that store - okay I never owned a Speedy and this blog had me thinking I should get one (please tell me why again) the 25 was way too small so I got the 30 in the regular classic logo. So now I am a brand new Speedy owner - I don't know what they cost here but they were very inexpensive there (410 euros). Is that a good price? The SA went in the back to wrap my bag for travelling and it seems the bag literally flattens out for storage or travelling - I didn't see the dust bag because I kept it wrapped till I got home - I am a bit disappointed in the dust cover. It's just a flap closure, no strings to tighten it securely (like my other LV) Has anyone seen that type of dustbag? - I saw a ton of bags of course, I guess everything there is - and it was a lovely experience. It occurs to me that I didn't see anything with cherries (cerise?) but I did see everything we discuss here and then some. I also saw the "book" It was huge and heavy beyond measure - so that was not a practical buy - they had gorgeous shoes in the window and clothes and scarves - oh if only money was no object!! Well, I'm back now and look forward to when I can get there again!: P.S. I do love the Speedy!!
  2. I have that kind of dustbag for one of my LVs as well. I purchased it at that same boutique, maybe that is just what they use there. How exciting for you. I love Paris.
  3. hey congrats! I wish I could go.
  4. Welcome back suzy! Glad you had a wonderful time in Paris, and Congrats on your new Speedy! Such a classic timeless bag! Enjoy!
  5. Suzy, thanks for sharing your story. Paris is my favorite city in the world, and to be shopping at the LV flagship store on Champs is a dream! Now you have an LV to remember your trip by.
  6. O:huh::huh:! I am so jealous. Never been to Paris!! :smile:

    Congrats on the Speedy! :smile: I am so excited for you. I know, after joining the forum, I started getting the bug to have to get a Speedy too!!!! It's almost like an initiation! :smile:

    YAY for you! Glad you back safe and back with us! :smile:
  7. Congrats !

    And my mom's speedy has the same kind of dustbag too.
  8. I have those same kinds of dustcovers. Eh, they're not bad. Congrats on ur new Speedy though! I'm thinking about getting the 25 since I want a small size.
  9. Thanks for your sweet thoughts ladies! If I had to leave Paris, I'm glad to have all of you to come home to!!!
  10. Aww! Thats so great! Was it the flagship store?
  11. Yes it was - I knew I wanted to buy a bag in that amazing store!!
  12. congrats!!! and what a great place to buy your speedy!...btw, all of my lv dustbags just have the flap closure, I really wish they made all of them with drawstring closures...
  13. Well, that's just it, When I bought my LV (Besace Mary Kate) it came with a luxurious drawstring dustbag - so that's what I expected.
  14. i bought my speedy in paris but in galeries l'afayette in feb and it has a flap dustbag, doesnt bother me becuase i have nothing else to compare it too and also i use it everyday so it hasnt been back in the dustbag since i got home
  15. I have that same type of dustbag as well.

The Perfect 40th Birthday Gift

Cross-Country Car BuyingWell my first car as a new teenage driver was a 1968 Camaro that I bought used and fairly "rough" with my own hard-earned cash from working as a golf caddy during summers. After a couple of years, I sold it and bought a 1967 Camaro that I absolutely loved.

2013 iMac vs 2012 iMac Refurb vs Waiting

    I'm looking for some help in purchasing a 27" iMac, mainly for my wife who is a part-time wedding photographer.

    • It's primary use will be editing 30MB RAW files in LightRoom 5.
    • We are on a budget and looking to spend as little as possible, but willing to pay if it means the machine will last longer.
    • Hoping to get 5 years out of it.
    • We get an education discount as she works at a university.
    • Fusion drive is a must.
    • Will be able to buy in 1-2 months.

    Option 1:
    2013 27" iMac 3.2 i5, 1GB 775M w/ 1TB Fusion Drive ($1929)

    Option 2:
    Refurb Late 2012 27" iMac 2.9GHz i5, 512MB 660M w/ 1TB Fusion Drive ($1669)

    Option 3:
    Wait for the new 2013s to end up in the refurb store

    Option 4:
    Wait for 2014 iMacs (yeah, right)

    I'd appreciate any advice. I like to have the latest and greatest Apple stuff but don't know if ac wifi, PCI SSD interface, and Haswell is worth the money.

    Time isn't a huge issue as we're at the end of wedding season so editing won't get busy again until next spring. Also, anything will be better than the 2009 13" MacBook Pro she's editing on now.

    Thanks for the help!
  2. macs4nw macrumors 601

    It might be a little while before those 2013 iMacs show up in the refurb store, so it comes down to whether the slightly faster processor, the faster variety of that flash in your Fusion drive, the 802.11ac WiFi, and last but not least, that doubling of graphics memory, are worth $260 to you.

    Also, when it comes to resale, you'll have a one year more recent iMac to sell, ie slightly higher residual value.

    I believe, it's a small price to pay, but admittedly, I don't know your financial situation. Good Luck!

    In 1-2 months the 2012 should be even cheaper too if you don't get from the apple site.

    I'd suggest staying alert during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday interval, about 7 weeks away.

    If recent past is an indicator, there will likely be sale prices for the 2013 models pretty similar to the eventual refurb prices for the 2013 models. The 2013 sale prices will probably only be a little more than the 2012 refurb prices. The 2013 model would then be an easy choice.

    Excuse the extra opinioneering: I would suggest going with the 256 gb SSD instead of the fusion drive, and then using a Thunderbolt (or USB 3.0) portable external HDD for any additional memory needed. The TB external drive should be plenty fast for most uses. Actually, I find portable USB 3.0 drives plenty fast for supplementary memory. And external USB 3.0 drives are cheap.

    The external Thunderbolt (or USB 3.0) drive will remain relatively "future proof"-you can always use it elsewhere. In the meantime, the SSD performance is better, meaning the iMac will "seem" up to date longer.

  5. macs4nw macrumors 601

    "Macrominnie" above, made an excellent suggestion, with which I totally agree.

    That 256GB SSD option is the same price as the 1TB Fusion drive, so the extra external USB3.0 HDD would be the only added cost, but all your software for the foreseeable future will easily reside on that 256GB SSD, and in addition to a faster machine (under certain circumstances, such as when transferring large files), you'll have more flexibility in adding future storage capacity in the form of a larger, or an additional external HDD.

    I'd personally go with a new Haswell iMac because performance wise both graphically and processor it's much faster compared to previous generations.

    If it's for work I'd go with the newest generation simply because it will last you longer, BTW the Fusion drives do run rather quick though I would still get an extra drive for a back up.

    Thanks for the replies! That is a great suggestion and one that I had briefly considered, but not seriously. I've got a 1TB USB 3.0 RAID 1 external that I use as a secondary backup for all the RAW files (then I back that drive up to CrashPlan) so the 256GB might just work.

    Also, thanks for the heads up on the Black Friday thing. I'm in Canada so I'm wondering where the best place to pick something up on sale would be. I've only ever purchased my Macs straight from Apple so this would be a new experience for me.

    Thanks for your time! If anyone else has suggestions, feel free to post!

Calling Dr. Mac - PB G4 "Thinks" I Have Inserted A Blank CD

Discussion in 'Mac Basics and Help' started by rdp322, Mar 1, 2008.

  1. rdp322 macrumors newbie

    Feb 26, 2008
    Hi, Folks - My PB G4 running 10.4.11 indicates on startup that it sees a Blank CD in the built-in drive. First it launched iTunes. Then when I changed the settings, it prompted me to choose an application to burn the CD, so I am guessing the problem does not related directly to iTunes. I can find nothing in the settings to explain this. The only explanation I can think of is that I recently burned some files using Roxio Toast Lite 6.0.7. Besides setting the computer to ignore the nonexistent CD, does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks. - Becky

    "Phantom" CD Fix Linked to M4PtoMP3 CD Converter

    Hi, Folks -

    Figured out the problem. Last month I installed M4P to MP3 CD Converter so I could move iTunes media to my Blackberry. This creates a "virtual disk" that shows up in the disk utility. Thought I had deleted everything. Until I carefully started picking through the System library. There's a sneaky little file called StartupParameters.plist that hides in CDBurnerService in the Startupitems folder. The text of the document contains start and stop messages for the CD Converter. Bye, bye plist; bye, bye virtual disk and launch on startup. Hope this helps if anyone else runs into this problem. - Becky

    I burn music cd's on my PowerBookG4 in iTunes. The cd's play in car and in other computers just fine. But when i put them in my mac my mac thinks it is blank.

    Becky, I can't find the .plist file you were talking about is there any other program or file i should look for to delete that is causing this problem? Help Please.

    I bought a Macbook and the FedEx tracking page says it is estimated to be delivered tomorrow (July 1). Does anyone know from experience how accurate their estimate is?

    I want to know because:

    1) If there's a really high chance it's tomorrow, I want to be home to sign for it.

    2) I'm just really, really excited for it. My first Mac after using PC's my entire life.

    It will almost always come on or before that day. It always has for me.
    Remember to post unboxing pics!
  3. izibo macrumors 6502

    Oct 6, 2004

    If you are talking about the fedex tracking system, then 99% of the time it will be that day. If you are talking about the Apple estimated time, then it's almost always earlier.

    If you have the tracking number, just check that morning before work. If it says "out for delivery" then you are in good shape!

Saving the HD2600XT ROM

Discussion in 'Mac Pro' started by Infrared, Apr 19, 2008.

  1. Infrared macrumors 68000

    Mar 28, 2007
    Some people have noted problems with the ATI HD2600XT update
    (fan noise, etc.). As you are no doubt aware, Apple does not provide
    a method of reversing the update. Enter stage right ATIFlash:

    Does anyone have any experience of using this with Apple cards to
    backup and restore the ROM[1]? Is it possible, dangerous, etc.?

    [1] I'm not sure if ROM is quite the name. But you know what I mean.
  2. mgsarch macrumors regular

    Jan 19, 2008
    I'm last person to ever suggest something like this, but, if you use the graphics card regularly (which i assume you do) wouldn't it be worth having Apple replace the card since many of us (myself included) have experienced no problems at all like you're suggesting?

    Of course it's dangerous to mess the cards firmware. You can potentially screw things up worse and Apple is not likely to be very sympathetic after you've been flashing the card (probably will blame the issues on that).

    I will settle for lots of workarounds but if the gfx card was making lots of noise I would call applecare and tell them to send me a replacement. I don't see using a faulty card with a buggier firmware as a good solution, even if it was working better before. We all have the same hardware, I haven't seen what you're talking about being widely complained about (like the FWAudio issues). I usually take that to mean it's probably an issue with your hardware or some REALLY strange thing software you're running is doing.

    I've flashed gfx cards in the past and it just doesn't leave you with a good feeling. You always wonder when problems come up because you've added a variable that there's no way (for most of us?) to really understand.

    my .02

    I feel your pain, i've been in your place and it's never fun having to deal with this stuff. :(

    I would call them though, they will probably ship it to you and let you send the old one after you replace it. If they don't want to do that, I would keep asking for someone else until they agree.

How to change www. to root domain on Modulus?

Hi all,

I’ve got a test deployment of my in-development app on Modulus at I’ve finally got all my DNS working right, but there’s one problem left: In order for Facebook/etc logins to work, the app can’t be served from any subdomain. In other words, if you put in “”, it needs to actually request

I’m still somewhat new to ‘advanced’ DNS, but my understanding is that that kind of redirect is not part of DNS, but rather a server URL rewrite.

So what is the best way to do this with Modulus? Thanks all :smile:

Multiple apps or multiple databases?

Hello all,

I created my first web application using Meteor for the school district I work for. It works really well, and now other districts are interested in using it. My problem is trying to decide how to host it for them. Do I create multiple VPS’s for each district? That seems like a management nightmare at scale. Do I somehow create a database for each district and push them to their respective database based on subdomain? Is that even possible?

I want to be able to easily update the app when necessary, but keep everyone’s data safely walled off.

What am I missing, and what is the best practice for my situation? Thanks for any advice you all might have.

Loving Meteor. I can’t believe I was able to create a web app that other people actually want to use.

Best practice would be to rework your database models so that they allow for multiple districts. In it’s easiest form this would mean adding a collection Districts, each with their own _id. Then in every other collection, including users, have an extra field for the district _id.

So you’d have 1 application running 1 database and the database contains all the data for all districts, but you can query for one specific district. Quick and simple walkthrough:

A user logs in, his user object has a field “district” with the _id of the district he’s part of. Next for all the data he needs, in the publications this _id is passed in the query for district. If you have a collection “Schools” for example, each school would have the _id of the district it’s in. So querying for all the schools in the user’s district would be:

`Meteor.publish("schools", function () {
    var user = Meteor.users.findOne({_id: this.userId});
    return Schools.find({district: user.district});

Same approach for all the other collections. Security-wise this would make it so no user can access data from outside his district if the rest of the application is secure and users can’t edit their own user object for example.

OK, I’ll see about going through and refactoring this way. My worry would just be data leakage, which wouldn’t be an issue if it’s all in a silo.

Thanks for the reply and advice!

Guide Chapter: Multi-tenancy

If you set up the publications correctly and handle inserts and updates securely there’s no risk of data leaks between districts, at least not more than the alternative of a separate server and db for each one (as pretty much everything is breachable of course). But setting up multiple servers and db’s wouldn’t be much more secure than the above approach.

If however you absolutely feel you need to separate them, then the only option is to set up a server and db for each district. It’s quite a bit more work of course, but once they’re all set up deploying new versions wouldn’t be that much more work as you could have a single codebase and the only difference between the servers being which db they access, easily doable with an automatic deployment script, probably even with mup.

Guide Chapter: Multi-tenancy

I suggest take a look at this thread: Multitenancy and Meteor

My solution, currently, is based on @nlammertyn 's suggestion. All publications are based on a school ID, so if your account has the school ID 78956, you’ll only see students with that ID.

Thanks everyone. I think this will work fine, and allow me to maintain only one codebase.

[WinXP] RAID driver issues

    Hi, recently I've been having some problems with my computer so I decided to give it a reformat. Up to this point I used to leave my computer at BestBuy to get things done because quite frankly I don't know squat about computers. But this time around I wanted to learn my way around the advanced aspects of computer maintenance, so I decided to do it myself.

    At first I had to learn what BIOS is and how to make my computer boot from CD rom. No biggie, didn't take me too long. But when it got to the actual installation part I got a message that read something like "hard disk not detected." I gave it another try before searching the net again for an answer. I found one case in a different tech forum that was similar to mine, and most of the replies suggested that he either needed a fresh RAID driver install or reinstall in a different driver mode. After fiddling around on Dell's support page for a bit with the help of a very, very kind person I met online I finally made a RAID driver disk and gave the whole thing ANOTHER try. No dice, it still couldn't detect the hard disk even after the drivers were installed.

    So I simply decided to try the whole thing in different driver mode and I'm afraid this is what sealed my fate. I was able to fdisk in "RAID autodetect / ATA" mode (it was originally set to "RAID autodetect / AHCI" mode) and install a new copy of Windows - except I can't install any drivers necessary to run the computer or go on the net.

    So... what now?

    It seems like my hard disk is named E: instead of C: and none of the installation files are redirecting the target to E: drive. I guess I can change it every time I install something... but what I'm worried about is whether it's acceptable or cause some problems in the long run.

Toad World® Forums

Beta Released (

Beta Notes

Export Table as Flat File

Export Table as Flat File window has undergone a GUI update.

The exported files are the same, except now Intervals and Timestamps are supported in the SQL*Loader file.

The GUI will now allow you to include/exclude columns by checking/unchecking, and start/end positions of remaining columns are updated automatically when you do that.

Schema Browser

Schema Browser now optionally includes an indicator for Invalid Synonyms. It can be enabled in Schema Browser’s filter. It is an option because loading this information requires joining DBA_SYNONYMS to DBA_OBJECTS, which might be slow for some users.

Also added is SB-Synonyms -> Right-click -> Compile.

Compare Databases Create/Alter DB Objects Export DDL

Oracle 18c Support

Tablespaces can now be created with the content type of “Lost Write Protection” (this is called a shadow tablespace).

In addition, you can turn lost write protection on/off (or suspend it) for a permanent or undo tablespace.

You can read about Shadow Tablespaces here:

Formatting/Parsing (QP5)

Fix (QP 2963) : Restoring parser performance which degraded slightly in QP5.317.

New (QP 2932) : Greatly enhanced syntax recovery at clause and token level.

Fix (QP 2978) : ALTER TABLE: partitioning clauses (sub)partition names can be nested within parentheses (undocumented).

Create/Alter DB Objects

Create/Alter Tablespaces

Default Storage and Extent Management controls have been moved to a separate tab.

Compare Databases Export DDL Schema Browser

Oracle 18c Support

Users can now be created with the “No Authentication” clause.

These users can be used as schemas in that they can contain objects, but cannot be used to log into the database.

In Toad, this is supported in SB-Users-Scripts, Export DDL, Create/alter user, and compare databases.

Formatting/Parsing (QP5)

  • Queries: FETCH FIRST ROW ONLY now supported

  • SqlPlus text is no longer formatted; it will be copied “as is”.
    Code Analysis

  • Rule 5916 (“Beware of and avoid implicit date/timestamp conversions.”) Changed “data type” to “date/timestamp”, and examples adjusted. (QP 2817)

  • Rewrite of 43 CA rules, resulting in a 30% speed increase.

Formatting/Parsing (QP5)

New (QP 2830) : Formatter options, Newline tab: New option to ensure a newline near the end of the formatted file. Default value is unchecked, preserving the old behavior.

Code Analysis

Fix (QP 2809) : Rule 5406 (“Remove unused parameters or modify code to use the parameter.”) rewritten for performance (about 25 times faster on a big Oracle package).

Fix (QP 2887) : Rule 6740 (“Assigning variable to itself (A := A).”) did not work for tab(1) := other_tab(1).

Fix (QP 2277) : Rule 6724 (“Check on PL/SQL block label matching.”) did not work well for packages.

New rule 6746 (“This identifier has the name of a built-in function or package.”)

The Threat to US Critical Infrastructure & SCADA Systems

We’ve seen a period of people doing a lot of reconnaissance of control systems. You see a lot of breaches of companies in the resources business – electric companies, oil and gas, chemical, and mining. That might sound alarming, but the breaches you are really seeing are not touching control systems at all.

The interesting thing about this is that the attacks are targeting very specific information in many of those environments. They have schematics of the control systems. So while they may not be actually touching the control systems, they’re interested in them.

When we think about trends, and what we might see in the future, at some point that information is going to get used, and most businesses that use large critical infrastructure equipment don’t do a particularly good job of segmenting off the enterprise cloud that has malware.

  1. Interesting topic to touch upon. I work SCADA and old school hardwired relays to equipment. I have experience in the Newer Tech. that allows for controls to be manipulated via IP. Not cool to have equipment start/stop without being notified by a coworker that is offsite.
    Boots on the ground, proper and consistent training and protocols make the difference. You have to have a Mole on the inside to things go wrong in a way to count.

At Forest Park we desire to plant Christ-Centered Churches. We believe that even though we do not have the resources to plant churches out of Forest Park, we certainly can be involved in church planting.

Grace City Church in Las Vegas was planted in 2012 by Dr. Dave Earley, his wife, and a motivated group of young graduates from Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA. Over the past few years Grace City has now become a training ground for evangelism and even Church planting. A huge part of who they are as a Church revolves around training groups from other Churches in discipleship and evangelism. Forest Park has been blessed to see 3 groups from our Church over the past few years attend one of these trips, with another planned for July of this year. We believe in the work God is doing through Grace City, and they believe in the work God is doing here at Forest Park. You can visit their website by clicking here.

John Elway's Quarterback

John Elway's Quarterback is an action-oriented football game. You have your choice of several different plays on offense and defense. On offense you assume the role of quarterback on passing plays and when and if the pass is completed you become the receiver. On running plays the quarterback runs the ball. On the defensive side you act as the middle linebacker unless a pass is intercepted or a kick is received, then the ball carrier becomes the the active player. The graphics are not terrible, but they are not that good either and each team is represented by only nine players. The game is easy to play, but unless you are a joystick manic, not very interesting. I rate it a 2 out of 5.

Bags are packed

Time to launch the Patreon.

I tested it on Facebook the other day to see if I’d done it right and people started pledging right then but this is the actual launch.

I’m going back to the original B&W, with NO ADS and no fatuous people announcing that I’m a transphobe because I have my own ideas about gender. I earned a little income blogging at Freethought Blogs and I need to replace that. Think of me as like a public radio station but without voices and without the “you owe us, please call now” drives. You don’t owe me. Don’t donate unless it’s easy for you and you want to. I like doing this and I like having readers; donating is entirely voluntary.

You can do it

Hoping to hear

People are so nice.

Ed Brayton is not the person I was hoping to hear was leaving I can certainly understand why, though.

Update: adding a poignant public post from a network colleague:

[Personal problems blah blah] I know there’s some shit going down on our blog network that I need to address, and I will once I’ve found enough spoons. I know a lot of my readers are hurting right now. Please let me know if there’s anything in particular you need me to do to help you. Unless you want me to join Ophelia’s pity party. That I cannot do.

This isn’t a pity party I’m having. It’s a disgust party.

A fundamental human need

Amnesty’s prostitution policy document.

Zip down to page 5, and read note 2.

 ²As noted within Amnesty International’s policy on sex work, the organization is opposed to criminalization of all activities related to the purchase and sale of sex. Sexual desire and activity are a fundamental human need. To criminalize those who are unable or unwilling to fulfill that need through more traditionally recognized means and thus purchase sex, may amount to a violation of the right to privacy and undermine the rights to free expression and health.

Ok wait. If sexual activity is a fundamental human need, then what happens in cases where there are no prostitutes available? What would happen if all women had job options they liked better than sex work, so there just were no women willing to do it?

If sexual activity is a fundamental human need, what happens in emergency situations, like earthquakes and floods, when people have to take refuge in shelters and thus have to have their fundamental needs met? Would the Red Cross and MSF and everyone else doing emergency work be expected to provide sex partners along with water and food and shelter and medical treatment?

If sexual activity is a fundamental human need, does that mean that straight men have a fundamental right to have access to A Woman at stipulated intervals?

If sexual activity is a fundamental human need, what right do married women have to say no to marital sex? They can’t starve their husbands, so why should they be able to say no to sex just because they don’t feel like it?

The Supreme Court struck a blow at the heart of the Voting Rights Act

Today in my Inbox an email from one of my heroes – John Lewis. It is, of course, a public mailing, so I’ll share it right here.

Every year, I head back to the birthplace of a new America — Selma, Alabama — where a determined struggle for voting rights transformed our democracy 50 years ago.

On March 7, 1965, Hosea Williams and I led a band of silent witnesses, 600 nonviolent crusaders, intending to march 50 miles to Montgomery — Alabama’s capital — to demonstrate the need for voting rights in America.

At the foot of the bridge, we were met by Alabama state troopers who trampled peaceful protestors with horses and shot tear gas into the crowd. I was hit on the head with a nightstick and suffered a concussion on the bridge.

I thought that was going to be my last demonstration. I thought I might die that day.

We knew the dangers that lay ahead, but we marched anyway hoping to usher in a more fair society — a place where every American would be able to freely exercise their constitutional right to vote, and each of us would have an equal voice in the democratic process.

We knew that standing up for our rights could be a death warrant. But we felt it would be better to die than to live with injustice.

When President Lyndon Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law, it was a great day. The Act made the ballot box immediately more accessible to millions of Americans of every race, gender, region, economic status, and national origin. It has been called the most effective legislation of the last 50 years.

The Voting Rights Act | The White House

Quote: I gave a little blood on that bridge in Selma, Alabama for the right to vote. I'm not going to stand by and let the Supreme Court take the right to vote away from us. Byline: John Lewis August 24, 2013

But just two years ago, the Supreme Court struck a blow at the heart of the Voting Rights Act, nullifying a key provision that had curbed discriminatory voting rules and statutes from becoming law. As soon as the Court’s decision was announced, states began implementing restrictive voting laws. While some states are changing laws to increase the number of Americans who are able to participate in our democracy, by increasing early voting days and making it easier for people to cast a ballot, far too many states are passing new laws that make it harder and more difficult to vote. Early voting and voter registration drives have been restricted. Same-day voting has been eliminated in some cases. Strict photo identification laws have been adopted, and improper purges of the voting rolls are negating access to thousands, perhaps millions, who have voted for decades. That’s why people are still marching for this cause today. Even as we speak, the NAACP is leading a 40-day, 40-night march from Selma to Washington, D.C. in support of a number of issues, including the issue of voting rights. As citizens, it is our duty to make sure that our political process remains open to every eligible voter, and that every citizen can freely participate in the democratic process. And when it comes time to get out and vote — we have to do so. The right to vote is the most powerful nonviolent, transformative tool we have in a democracy, and the least we can do is take full advantage of the opportunity to make our voices heard. Today at 2 p.m. ET, I’m joining President Obama for an important conversation on protecting voting rights — and I hope you’ll join us. Tune in here. Despite the challenges, I am still hopeful — but we must remain determined. Democracy is not a state. It is an act, and each and every one of us, each generation, must do our part to help create a more perfect union. Keep marching on. John Lewis Member of Congress The Voting Rights Act | The White House

Quote: The vote is precious. It is almost sacred. It's the most powerful non-violent tool we have in a democratic society and we've got to use it. Byline: John Lewis August 24, 2014

Hands off god

The NSS reports that the UAE has tightened up its laws by making it illegal to “offend” God.

Wouldn’t you think if there’s anyone who can rise above being “offended” it would be God? I mean – ants can say harsh things about me all they want to; it won’t offend me. Why? Because they’re ants. Their concerns are not my concerns, and vice versa. Our concerns are too different in nature to be subject to emotions like being “offended.” Ants are going to think I’m way too big and ugly and misshapen, aren’t they, because if the criterion is Ant, I don’t meet it. But I don’t care. I don’t particularly want to meet the Ant criterion, and I’m indifferent to any potential disgust ants might feel about how far short I fall.

It should be the same with God. God’s perfect, omni-everything, transcendent – all sorts. Why would God take anything we say personally? It makes no sense.

Gulf News reports that the legislation makes illegal “any acts that stoke religious hatred” and “any form of expression” that insults religion.

The law, passed by decree at the end of July, “prohibits any act that would be considered as insulting God, His prophets or apostles or holy books or houses of worship or graveyards.”

That’s a very very touchy god, that is. If I were going to have a god, it would be a much more magnanimous, understanding, unflappable god than that.

The legislation purports to allow for an “environment of tolerance” and “broad-mindedness”, but includes potential 10 year jail terms and substantial fines for those who break the law.

Provisions in the legislation include a prohibition on expressing doubt about the existence of God.

Anything else? Doubts about God’s shoe size? Preference in fish? Views on climate change?

UAE is right off my travel plans list.

Bobcats belong in Joshua Tree

Chris Clarke has news.

The California Fish and Game Commission voted 3-2 Wednesday to ban bobcat trapping everywhere in California. The vote, which took place at the Commission’s regular meeting in Fortuna, caps a controversy that started when a Joshua Tree resident found traps illegally placed on his land less than a mile from the National Park.

Concern over the threat to bobcats in Joshua Tree and elsewhere in the state prompted the California Legislature to pass AB1213, the Bobcat Protection Act of 2013, which directed the Fish and Game Commission to establish trapping-free buffer zones around national parks, wildlife preserves, and other areas where trapping is already prohibited.

Guest post: People uncritically generalizing their personal experience

Originally a comment by John Horstman on A horribly effective silencer.

I was just reminded of this excellent article from a year ago (looking at some of the theoretical underpinnings/implications of the rise of use of “triggering” as a silencing tactic, among other subjects) by Jack Halberstam, a radical queer anti-capitalist anarchist who may or may not be considered trans. I’m a product of the 90s scene and theoretical perspective Jack describes in that first link, and indeed influenced by zir writing directly, which likely explains a fair amount of my views on the subject. A not-insignificant part of what makes arguments like this (which Jack notes go back decades – a point I and others have raised) so frustrating is the insistence of your recent detractors that their preferences and viewpoints are settled questions with universally-agreed-upon answers when that’s not even close to true (the first linked article discusses the insistence that “tranny” is universally a slur, irrespective of context, as another example). [Read more…]

A horribly effective silencer

I have to reply to some of the garbage that’s being spewed on PZ’s post about me from yesterday. I’m going to do it here because – oh well the reason’s obvious.

It’s all people who have been examining everything they can see of my Facebook activity going back months – which is creepy and disgusting all by itself. Even if I’m a raving Republican, that’s creepy and disgusting. Since I’m not, it’s all the more so. (If I were a Republican lobbyist or politician or influential think-tanker, ok, fair game, but a minor blogger? Not such fair game.)

One major item in the indictment: I read and sometimes comment in a Facebook group called Discussing gender critical & gender identity. It’s an open group. At the top of the group’s page it has a note on rules, which starts with this:

This group offers a space for people with very different views about “gender” and “gender identity” to engage in respectful discussion. We require people to be civil and we request that group members listen to one another. The point of the group is to foster dialogue and allow for a broader discussion of these issues between those who advocate for gender identity, those who hold gender critical or abolitionist views and those who are exploring and/or undecided.

It has a range of views. Nobody agrees with all of them, because that would be incoherent. It has some interesting discussions, with people who disagree with each other. I don’t agree with everything said there (see above), to say the least. I don’t endorse the group, and neither do I denounce it. I think I have a right to read posts in the group and even (gasp) comment on them without being hauled before the Court of Asshole Opinion.

People have told me Elizabeth Hungerford, one of the admins, is a TERF…but then I’ve learned to be wary of that label, because I’m not sure it’s applied carefully in all cases. In any case I’m not endorsing her, or denouncing her either. People have pointed out that letter to the UN – that looks like a bad idea to me, but I don’t know enough about it to pronounce on it. Elizabeth friend requested me on Facebook and I accepted. That doesn’t mean we go to each other’s houses and put our jammies on and talk about boys – it means we can see each other’s walls. I’m pretty sure I disagree with plenty of her ideas, but then…that’s the case with everyone. Yes, it’s a matter of degree, but I’m still not convinced that this is something the Pharyngula Horde gets to decide for me.

I have on occasion made a joke in that group. The people on PZ’s post are brandishing a couple of those jokes as evidence of my thoughtcriminality. This is how low we’ve sunk – or maybe it’s how low we’ve always been, I don’t even know at this point.

I make jokes about things all the time. I say flippant things. I try not to do it on sensitive subjects, but sometimes I get that wrong.

Well obviously someone like that doesn’t belong on Freethought Blogs. The horror!

And then there’s this one from someone called “Thumper” –

From anteprepro’s link at #101

Ophelia Benson: I know. The TERF panic is a horribly effective silencer.

Oh my god, NO!! How could I possibly have said that?! It’s so obviously NOT TRUE at all in any way!!!

You could not make it up.

Even a joke should have some meaning

Alice Through the Looking Glass chapter 9:

However, there would be no harm, she thought, in asking if the game was over. `Please, would you tell me — ‘ she began, looking timidly at the Red Queen.

`Speak when you’re spoken to!’ The Queen sharply interrupted her.

`But if everybody obeyed that rule,’ said Alice, who was always ready for a little argument, `and if you only spoke when you were spoken to, and the other person always waited for you to begin, you see nobody would ever say anything, so that — ‘ [Read more…]

Happy 3rd Birthday!

Dearest TheBoy,

I am amazed at just how much you have grown up. Three years ago, your daddy and I met you one sunny morning as a 5lb11oz bundle of pure awesomeness. We didn’t have the faintest idea of what was in store for us but you made our journey into parenthood exciting and fun, but sometimes downright nerve wracking (a 104.5 degree fever can so that to you!).

At first, I didn’t know what being a stay at home mom looked like but I have loved every second of being at home with you (and LittlePeanut). From our daily dance parties to the silly faces you like to make, your quick humor and quirky personality crack me up. And boy are you a talker. You love to talk, talk, talk. A quality I am sure you received from me.

Lately, you enjoy watching Jake and the Neverland Pirates as well as doing puzzles. You’re actually quite good at putting them together without much help from me. You eat cherry tomatoes and black olives like no tomorrow and you love riding your new bicycle (with training wheels). You are fascinated with bubbles, love playing on the piano and are pretty talented at dribbling a soccer ball.

So today, on your third birthday, I want to remind you of how loved you are. By everyone in the family and many many more. You are smart, caring, goofy and so full of life! I can only imagine what the future holds for you my dear, and it looks bright as ever.  Never forget how loved you are by God, and by both your daddy and I.

My prayer for you is that you would grow in wisdom and in stature, and in favor with God and with man, so that those who encounter you will know that they have seen Christ’s love.

I love you with all my heart,

Nights at the Game Table: Ed Robertson

Mike Primeau interviews Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies. There are too many good topics to list in a preview here.

In this episode, we have the pleasure of sitting down [with] Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies, to learn a great deal about his world of play….and yes, it even includes board games. But, second only to music, it’s pinball that has become Ed’s go to escape. This rediscovered hobby has some striking similarities to the thing that feeds the board game junkie. So sit back and enjoy!

CBleach Scrub

Take a look at the previous post ^^ :sunglasses:

I like to have a layer of sand at the top of the column to avoid disrupting the hard work I put into packing it. By far the most important aspect of separation is proper packing

When in the winterization process should the hybrid scrub be done?

After winterization but before distillation.

Some people winterize, distill 1st pass, hybrid scrub, distill 2nd pass.

I am using a hochstrom for filtration needs. I always seem to get the carbon A through the silica. I can’t seem to get an even pack with the hochstrom obviously because it is so wide. Does cbleach get stopped by the silica and 1 micron?

I also have a hockstrom filter and have very little problem with bypassing…center the filter in there and 2" of silica…cbleach does get stopped!!

gent the filter? I maybe misunderstanding.

Gotcha. It seems I am having some bye pass somehow. The carbon A is absolutely getting though my filtration. Not sure how. I pack a thick silica layer when I do it but somehow it always gets through. Do you pack?

The 1st filtration usually has a few fines that make it thru. On the 2nd pass, all are normally trapped in the cake.

is your silica wet or dry?

I wet load.

I’ve started making a bentonite slurry with 100g bentonite with etho for a total of 300ml. Put into buchner on coarse filter 2-3 micron prewetted. Then 33g bleach with etho for a total of 200ml slurry on that. Filtered 5gal through that, end result was golden etho. Nothing seems to bypass at all.

Maybe regulated pH to 6-7 after finishing using magsil pr?

You put down bentonite (DE) AND then cbleach?

Yes. First the bento slurry. Pull vac and some more etho though. Then pour the bleach slurry on that. Before it settles, start filtering.

Gonna go do 15 more gals to confirm. Will return results later today/tomorrow.

I may have to try out the bentonite this upcoming wash.

I get golden etoh from cryo washing. Wonder if this is needed?

I’m using it to remove water solubles. It removes all burnt residue from pots and bf allowing for better stirbar settings.

Bentonite removes water solubles??

Just did our first cryotemp extractions today. SLOW ASS FILTERING!!! But basicly followed the techs given on the site and have an amazing looking oil. finishing in roto tommorrow. trying to keep it all intact.

NO carbon scrubbing and has now gone through and 8micron. Looks amazing. Thanks Lostbiologist!!!
lmao my new saying at the shop is "it’s not Jesus, take me home slow…but it’s slow)
