Robota: Our First Month In Perpetuum
Zoom, Boom
Jim Rossignol
30th January 2012 / 1:09PM
Okay, let me say up front that RPS is running a Perpetuum corporation. If you want to try out some sandbox MMO robo-action you should grab the 15-day trial from here and join the chat channel "RPS" in-game. With that over, let's talk about what's happened in our first month in this peculiar little MMO, the trials and tribulations of brutal PvP, and our first significant victory.
The first part of my write up is here. It didn't take long for that to get noticed, and for the large number of newbies that came into the game to capture the interest of some of the local, long-term residents of Perpetuum. It took us a couple of weeks to settle down and get a regular crew (I think we saw about 30 of the 70 people who signed up only once) but now we are making money and running regular ops. It was at this point that the meta-game started in earnest. I've now talked to perhaps a dozen different players from the game's various factions, each with their own stories to tell, each with their own agendas. While the population of this game is low, the sandbox mechanics and territory-control systems mean there are some genuine power-struggles going on. The population is also small enough for almost everyone to know each other. The result of has been a lot of interest in our activities.
We've had two different mysterious benefactors help us out with technology and with making the most of the game's resources. One of them was keen to help us get on our way with the game's impenetrable industry and production game, while others wanted to see us get into "beta", the open areas of territory war and free PvP, as soon as possible. A few of the game's outpost "terminals" – capturable bases – have been left open for anyone to access, and we've made good use of that. Everyone we have spoken to has been incredibly welcoming and helpful, with the commanders of enemy gangs even apologising for blasting the hell out of us in larger gangs of 'bots.
What's been most interesting, however, is how quickly we've become candidates for involvement in the game's struggles. After recent controvo-dramas and subsequent abandonment of the game by a large Russian contingent, things in Perpetuum are in flux. Several different parties have made their agendas (secretly) known to us, and deciding which one to go with has been interesting. As it turns out, we've remained independent, and I suspect that will be true for a while. I've always enjoyed this kind of cloak and dagger stuff in games, however, and Perpetuum looks like the perfect canvas for it.
Anyway, all that social and political stuff is nothing without good PvP, and mastering that has taken us some time. While it's easy to equate Perpetuum with Eve – many of the systems are near-identical – the fact of fighting on a 2D field, where line-of-sight matters to getting a hit, makes for a distinct and challenging experience. Here are some of the things we've learned about Perpetuum's PvP:
When a robot dies in PvP territories, it explodes. This led to several comedy insta-deaths for our roaming gangs. One person would die and because everyone else was close by, they'd explode too. This feature really demands that players think about positioning, and also acts as a sort of "anti-blob" mechanism. Large groups, close together, can end up destroying themselves if one of the number goes down.
Scanning for enemies is complicated. Rather than having a set visual range for enemies in your "landmarks" window (Eve's overview) the distance at which enemies are detected depends on your ability to scan and their ability to scan. A small, light robot with good sensors can detect large stuff far away, while remaining unseen itself. Getting my head around this system has been a struggle. I wish the game visualised it better.
The speed imbalance between small and large robots is probably not correct. Smaller robots should be slightly faster than they are. As the game stands the skills and equipment of a long-term player do so much to alter the speed of a robot that the lumbering mechs of veterans are as fast, or faster, than the light robots of newbies. To create a newbie-friendly spread, where some one can act as a fast, light scout within a few days or weeks of entering the game, the devs need to increase the speed of light boys by 20-30kph. It would be a big change to the balance of the game, but would allow for much more varied gangs and combat.
Getting fights right is brilliant. Perpetuum does offer some spectacular robot battles.
Of course light robots are cheap and disposable, and they can still use cover to avoid being hammered by the massive guns of their mech adversaries. They also get hit a little less than larger robots, although a mech can quite easily murder a light bot or an assault bot (medium bot) if it gets a couple of clear shots.
We are, thanks to these esoteric elements, finally learning to use small robots effectively. There's been a bit of solo action (and I killed a mining operation at one point) and some roaming about, and some running away from terrifying enemy gangs. After several outings where we tried to take on small enemy groups and found ourselves managing to get some kills through force of numbers, but ultimately dying in the process, we've recently managed to get a couple of kills that made us feel confident about holding the field in future.
Last Friday we went out with seven light robots to scout a nearby island. We glimpsed a few enemies at terminals or teleports, but they docked or jumped out as we approached. There was then a notification about an outpost defence, and so we went to investigate. Arriving at the remote capturable base we found a mk2 Artemis, one of the more expensive and powerful robots in the game, lurking around his HQ. To our surprise the player came away from his base and began to engage our gang of small robots. Using the cover of plants, rocks, and topography, we began to tackle the hostile bot, slowing it with our demobilizers and slowly putting damage onto it. The running battle lasted five minutes. It was a long fight in which two of us died, but eventually the stomping, blasting thing went down.
To our delight it was full of "T4" loot, some of the better stuff in the game. We picked it up and zoomed off with our prize, only to find ourselves being pursued by the roused denizens of the island. I realised it was the perfect moment for a trap. Two dead and one newly logged-on pilot were back at the base, and so we quickly deployed the heavier mechs (as opposed to the small, light robots) for the first time. As our original gang fled for the teleport gate home, so the mechs ran to meet them on the other side.
Our gang, full of loot, waited at the gate as enemies charged towards them. I listened to the reports on our voice comms: "Four hundred metres." I told the gang to get behind cover so they didn't get sniped. Our mechs were not in position. "Three hundred metres." The enemy mech was closing quickly, and would kill our gang if they were out in the open. "Two hundred metres. Two more mechs, two mk2 light bots." The enemy reinforcements were upon us. "One hundred metres. He's got us locked. He's engaging." The enemy robot attacked our light gang just as the three mech pilots arrived at the teleport.
Our mechs jumped in. The hostile mech realised he was in trouble. Half a kilometre ahead of his friends, he was now surrounded by light bots and had three mechs were locking him up. He threw up a shield bubble and tried to tank his way out, but it wasn't happening. Surprised, his backup stalled, and then began to pull back. The firepower from three mechs and the small gang was too much, and our aggressor went down in a fireball. We even remembered about the death blast thing and didn't lose anyone else. Thrilled, we chased after the enemy gang, which fell back to the other side of a nearby mountain. We were not fast enough to cut them off.
Full of loot, and fearing experienced enemy reinforcements, we decided enough was enough and went home. We savoured what was the first, I hope, of numerous successful fights to follow.
This was exactly the kind of PvP I was hoping for: challenging, complicated, dynamic. Perpetuum has some problems, not least of which are recent sporadic attacks by DDOSer types, but I am hopeful the tiny, brave game can make its way onwards. The developers are committed and making the kind of game I have only hoped to see made in the years since Eve Online was released. For that reason, and the action outlined above, I'm sticking with it.
This game definitely won't be for everyone, but feel free to come and join us.

Quitsa, CINNNAMON
Janneke van der Putten – Quitsa
Gallery CINNNAMON, Rotterdam, December 16, 2017 – January 7, 2018
Exhibition text by Ina Boiten (NL/EN)
Two years ago Janneke van der Putten had a major solo debut exhibition of her work in Rotterdam at TENT: All Begins With A. A kaleidoscopic overview of the ways in which she expresses her art: her singing training before sunrise, the exploring of spaces with her voice and even with gunshots, writing in her 'listening book', installation, the use of textiles and videos of her interventions in France and Peru. The final piece was the large screen with the videos 'Directed to the Sun'.
The last part of this work, 'The Sun Clock of Chanquillo', can now be seen in a different context in the northern room of CINNNAMON. It is an example of what Janneke van der Putten wants to share with us in the exhibition Quitsa: the ancestral relationship of man, in his place on earth, with the movement of the sun. In this video, recorded in December 2014 on a ruin in Peru with a view of the Chanquillo solar clock (about 500 BC), a tribute is brought to the sun with waving orange ribbons and the primal sounds of Janneke's screams.
More than a year later, in neighbouring Ecuador, she visited the 'middle of the world': the astronomical observatory and mountain called Catequilla, exactly on the equator (around 800 AD). Van der Putten's intervention there is documented in the video 'Como un Caracol' ('As a snail'). In the passage to the southern gallery one can see how a red woven belt is dragged along the middle line of the earth, as if it represents a connection with the entire circumference of the world. Silently, only the wind can be heard. This work is the starting point for the exhibition.
The exhibition title Quitsa refers to this location, and to the old term 'Quitsato': 'Quitsa' (Middle) and 'To' (World). The importance of Catequilla as a unique point on the equator, in relation to the cyclical time measurement of the sun-earth rotations and the stars, inspired to show a different view of the world map – the equator as the central vertical line and the East on top. This is a representation of the atlas as proposed by Cristóbal Cobo and his geoastronomical research team, also called Quitsato. In the southern gallery room, this map is shown on hand-embroidered textiles. The opposite work, the garment 'Trait d'Union 2', is a reflection of this world map. It's based on the floor plan of the gallery with the façade on the East side, and the wall between the North and the South gallery as the equator. In the opening performance, Janneke van der Putten dresses in this textile and thus identifies herself with the place where her work is shown. From that base her voice sounds and merges with the gallery spaces.
All these elements come together in the hanging black canvas 'And The Voice Became Space'*, on which the head of a human sacrifice is embroidered in silhouette. This image originates from a series of reliefs carved in granite at the archaeological site of Sechin (ca. 1500 BC) in northern Peru, located in the same valley as Chanquillo. Blood flows from the mouth, but according to the Peruvian artist Christian Galarreta it could also represent the voice. Indeed, a bundle of lines rises like a stream of air: breath converted into sound and language – energy based in ancient cultivated land.
In Janneke van der Putten's exhibition All Begins With A in 2015, a variety of research projects was shown. With this concise presentation in CINNNAMON she focuses on a clear theme: the sun and the connection with the earth as pillars of human existence. It makes curious about her future work – what will come after Quitsa?

SUMMARY: Content marketing has proven a growth opportunity for Fairfax Media Australia. Its dedicated Made by Fairfax team has expanded to include a full range of agency services.
Despite a slumping advertising market, Fairfax Media's content marketing business, Made by Fairfax, has become one of the company's fastest-growing digital advertising offerings.
Like other media companies around the world, Fairfax Media Australia saw decreases from 2015 to 2016 — revenue down 0.6%, profit down 7.6%, from A$143.4 million to A$132.5 million, according to Fairfax's annual report.
The studio launched in early 2015 with a staff of three. Now the team comprises about 20 people in sales, technology, and content production, plus more than 3,000 freelancers with expertise on a variety of topics, such as travel, technology, and lifestyles.
One key to successful native ad campaigns is producing high-quality storytelling content. Fairfax has gained an edge by setting up its native advertising team similar to an ad agency, with a full range of creative services.
In mid-2016, the department had about 70 active accounts, with six or seven expansive, ongoing native campaigns for large customers, according to Simon Smith, former managing director/content marketing at Fairfax.
Smith lists several reasons for the success, not the least of which is that the department operates like an advertising agency, complete with advertising sales people; creatives such as digital designers, videographers, and writers; and strategic thinkers who help imagine and manage the campaigns with the client.
The agency model has afforded Fairfax with some advantages: great care is taken in the storytelling process to produce high-quality content, and metrics show advertisers how well the campaign is performing.
The campaigns are not about selling an energy drink or a new kind of shoes, he says. Content marketing campaigns are about engaging the user with relevant and useful content. The text, immersive graphics, photos, and video are branded as sponsored content with the advertisers' logo. The brand gets positive "rub-off" with engaging, valuable content. The content is meticulously labeled as advertising content.
In addition to the multi-media campaigns published across Fairfax's many news and lifestyle publications, the native campaigns also are promoted through social channels such as Facebook and Twitter, and on the Web, mobile, and apps.
Made by Fairfax provides a turnkey approach to content marketing that includes multi-media campaigns across platforms and a variety of social channels to increase engagement.
Some campaigns even include a sales mechanism based on an algorithm about users and their engagement with the content, suggesting a possible intent to purchase.
Content marketing is the ideal format for news media companies because the industry has hundreds of years of experience and reputation as excellent storytellers, Smith says.
One such storytelling campaign recently won second place in INMA's 2016 Global Media Awards. The South Australia tourism authority needed to differentiate itself from the many desirable tourism destinations in the crowded Australia tourism market.
"We needed to do more than just create a great campaign. With so many travel opportunities, South Australia couldn't afford to cede the stage to competitors for months at a time. South Australia needed to move from being in market for a few months a year to 'Always On,'" according to the Fairfax award entry.
The response to the challenge was to create a content marketing approach across Fairfax's digital platforms. During the campaign, more than 200 stories and other content elements were published, including listicles, infographics, and itineraries.
Keeping consumers reading was important. Beyond great writing, the Web allows for engagement in multiple ways.
In this case, the answers to engaging the users were video, photo galleries, and interactive quizzes. Campaign analytics showed audiences spent a total of 512 days of reading time with the content, with an average of 1 minute 27 seconds per page, and the touch-device content delivered three times the number of page views compared to replica Web pages on mobile devices.
PREV Traditional, start-up media have much to learn from each other NEXT What does digital investment really mean for media?


Primrose Marion resident Malcolm Wright was one of 56 veterans who left Port Columbus on an Honor Flight Sept. 28. And he said it is a day he'll never forget.
Malcolm said they were greeted by perhaps 100 folks, mostly women, when they landed in Baltimore, Md. From there, they boarded buses and headed to the Nation's Capitol. His personal caregiver for the day was Cheryl Caliver, a registered nurse at Mt. Carmel East, in Columbus.
Malcolm said they visited the World War II, Vietnam and the newly placed Korean War monuments. "It was unbelievable," he said. "I had been to DC before but can't describe how that day felt." He is pictured in a helmet and poncho worn by Korean War veterans. His memories of the monument included faces etched into the granite and life-size statues of soldiers. "It brought back a lot of memories," he said.
The group also visited Arlington Cemetery where they witnessed the Changing of the Guard. Do you know why the guards take 21 steps behind the tomb, wait 21 seconds before turning east, then 21 second before turning north, and then 21 steps to the tomb? The answer: the highest honor that can bestowed upon a veteran is the 21 gun salute.
In addition to the sights they visited that day, he was impressed with the organization of the day's events. "What impressed me the most was stacking all those things (wheelchairs) under the buses," he said. "That took work doing that. Just like you doing that every time you take us out." His last comment referred to Brenda Donegan, Life Enrichment Coordinator loading bus for local outings.

"Lock-em Up!" Covid and the Absurdity of Tyranny
"If our hope is in this life only, we are to be most pitied" (I Corinthians 15:19)
My writing motto is, "Sometimes offends; Never offended." It's more than just a saying for me; it is my way of living.
Those who know me understand that the more people ridicule, threaten, and shame me for a position that I take, the stronger my resolve becomes. I have made it clear from the beginning that I will not receive a Covid-19 vaccination until I am persuaded it is best for me, my family, and those around me. I will not conform to any mandate. I have built personal natural immunity to Covid-19 since the summer of 2020 (laboratory certified). In addition, blood laboratories have petitioned me to donate blood to those sick with Covid-19. I do not believe it is beneficial for me to obtain the Covid-19 vaccine.
I've made my position clear on many occasions. However, there are other issues now at play, issues that should disturb every single American citizen. Well-meaning Americans, people who have little understanding of the big picture, are advocating tyranny and the flip-side absurdity that always comes with tyranny. Let me illustrate.
There's a woman named Sarah whom I have never met, but she obviously reads what I write. Sarah wrote to me with a suggestion. Sarah said that I should take national leadership in establishing a "national registry" for "Conscientious Objectors to mandatory vaccinations, a registry for people like you."
Sarah went further. She said that the United States government should treat all those on the registry like those who consciously objected to fighting during World War II or Vietnam. There are three possibilities in Sarah's mind:
1. Those who refuse to register as "Conscientious Objectors" should be hunted down, prosecuted, and institutionalized until the completion of our "war on Covid."
2. Those who voluntarily register as "Conscientious Objectors" should be forced to isolate themselves in their homes. They cannot travel, even to the store or the doctor "lest they infect others." Their refusal to be vaccinated, says Sarah, is detrimental to our nation, and they should be treated as criminals. I suppose, in Sarah's mind, wearing an ankle bracelet and being confined to home instead of jail or an institution is enough incentive for the unvaccinated to register.
3. Sarah then gave her suggestion to me. She stated that those who voluntarily register as Conscientious Objectors to the vaccine should go to work "on the front lines." She continued "you should take the lead and go get training to become a Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA), working on Covid units with those sick with Covid." Sara said working as a CNA would be similar to Conscientious Objectors working on the frontlines as medics during war, putting themselves in the middle of danger. "Wade Burleson becoming a CNA," wrote Sarah, is the only way that "you might clear your now toast reputation a bit."
I am sure Sarah means well. She comes, however, from a perspective that is completely foreign to me. Read her rationale and justification for why she feels I should now become a CNA or EMT:
"It would only take you a few months to complete basic EMT training, and I can promise you would have no trouble gaining employment or better yet, to bwecome a volunteer on duty in Covid wards. Many emergency departments are using EMTs to first assess a patient to protect the paramedics from covid. Or, CNA training only takes a short time, and at least here in the Ozarks, a volunteer who is willing to work the Covid unites would literally be a God-send. Delta is causing more diarrhea and vomiting even in the patients needing vents. More butt wipers and chin wipers are desperately needed, freeing up higher trained personnel for other jobs. Or you just start immediately with only a few days of training if you were willing to work on the sanitation crews. This would be true servant leadership. It would be true willingness to stand the heat along with the rest of us and might clear your now toast reputation a bit. The tide is turning and the 60's era "my freedom comes first" has turned into "damn the torpedos and full speed ahead" in the war on covid. Care to take the challenge, prove your courage, and take the risk of leading?"
Sarah actually thinks she makes sense to people like me. Truth be known, people like Sarah in government leadership are the problem we face in the United States. They focus on specialization ("wiping butts and wiping chins") and lose sight of the big picture. The absurdity of tyranny is only surpassed by the false belief in absolute immunity. As David Epstein once said:
"The bigger the picture, the more unique the potential human contribution. Our greatest strength is the exact opposite of narrow specialization. It is the ability to integrate broadly."
There are bigger issues at stake today in America than mandatory vaccinations. Resistance to the Sarah's of this world who calmly proclaim their desire to lock up Americans who don't agree with their views is the biggest issue. What drives such narrow views of liberty? Their fear of death. "For it is through fear of death that people are subject to bondage throughout their lives" (Hebrews 2:15).
I close today's highly disturbing post about Sarah's deeply disturbing thinking with my response.
"I appreciate your explaining at length how you feel and think, and offering a suggestion to me. However, I am already with the sick and dying every day. I am on the front lines in hospitals and nursing homes. But I am ministering to them spiritually, not physically. In the Kingdom in which I live, spiritual encouragement is eternal; physical encouragement is temporal. Absolutely, CNA's are needed! But I am not called to be a CNA. Further, I am unaccustomed to other people telling me how they feel I could serve the world best. I am quite capable of determining God's direction for my life. Your desire that I become "a butt-wiper and chin-wiper" to "clear (my) now tarnished reputation" may seem logical to you, but it borders on absurdity to me. Those who serve as CNA's are to be commended, but in the end, the patient's butt will stop pooping and the patient's chin will stop dripping.
I am working on the front lines trying to help people to discover that this life is temporal and will soon come to an end. Death is universal. The resurrection to eternal life is conditional. I'd rather help those facing imminent death to know how they can find eternal life."

The fact that there was been almost no discussion of natural immunity is one of the biggest gaps in the current media/propaganda swirling around this virus. Natural immunity works, likely better than vaccination with the downside that for the susceptible, you may die getting it.
Just saw an article suggesting (haven't verified the source) that the vast majority of current illness in Israel is the vaccinated. However, Sweden who kind of had a "if high risk, self isolate but otherwise, let this thing rip 'cause it's a virus" attitude, seems to be doing very well these days. (https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/sweden/). Of course, it is my guess that the Swedes are at baseline healthier than Americans.

sometimes we call it 'foot washing' or 'self-giving', it has many names and examples:
there is an expression in the Church, this: "embracing the leper"
which means that when we stop thinking about how we can be wounded, injured, made filthy, infected, or killed; we then are free to love and care for others who are shunned and in need of care.
I think this has to do with 'humility' before the Lord, but it can't happened alone, as in the story of St. Francis and the Leper, St. Francis says, "for when I was in sin, it seemed too bitter to me to see lepers. AND THE LORD HIMSELF LED ME among them and I showed mercy to them. And when I left them, what had seemed bitter to me was turned in to sweetness of soul and body. And afterwards I delay a little and left the world"
The love of God changes people and they are able to give of themselves to care for others in the most humble and, yes, disgusting circumstances, sometimes even to the point of dying for another person's sake as in the case of a father who saved his son who had Down Syndrome from drowning when the boy fell into a cesspool filled with filth and the father jumped in and went underneath his son and pushed the boy's head above the filthy water until help came . . . . but the father died, drowning in the excrement and wastes in the process of helping his boy
I don't see dealing with excrement as 'beneath us' when you have an example of a man like that who died to save his boy, no. I see someone who loved enough to do that, someone that the Lord has led to love THAT MUCH that no amount of excrement or sewage could keep him from helping his son.
I thought about this incident because for those who work with the sick, the very elderly, the disabled; sometimes caring for them means having yourself deal with excrement and wastes, and that is humbling, but it is ALSO honorable work for the sake of another who cannot care for himself. Just a thought about the example,
so that Mr. Vander Woude's drowning in septic excrement can be kept as a pristine example of ultimate self-giving in the light of the love he had for his beloved boy.

The father losing his life to save his son, reminds me of a story when my twin brother, Hez, and I were twelve.
I'd planned to swim to an aircraft runway that extended to the middle of a large lake. I could 'dog-paddle better than him, but he kept following; calling "Come back, come back." He got strangled, and his words were garbled.
I was angry, but I went back because I knew he was about to drown. I know now, if he'd stayed on the bank, I would have drown.
Where would we be if Jesus had stayed in heaven?
REX RAY, I knew if anyone responded to that story, it would be you. :)

Fear is a powerful weapon indeed. A vaccination campaign that includes Sarah's terrible plan to black-list "conscientious objectors"...our media propaganda that accuses non-mask wearers of being heartless and selfish...these are nothing but smokescreens. They sound like plausible arguments against COVID infection, but when I look underneath them, each cause is rooted in fear. Fear of death, the weapon that Satan has used from the beginning of man to keep us in bondage.
Such fear compels us to "follow the science" even when science contradicts itself from one month to the next. Mask mandates, forced vaccination, lockdowns and public shaming are all effective tools when fear runs the day.
Most recently (last week) Newsweek broke the story of a coming Doomsday variant of COVID on the horizon. Now there's a fearsome prospect.
I memorized that scripture you referenced (Hebrews 2:14,15) so that I can remind myself of God's amazing love toward us. Jesus took on flesh and blood and suffered death in order to render powerless him who had the power of death (the devil). Jesus frees us from life-long bondage that comes from the fear of death.
It's because of Jesus that you (Wade) can live fearlessly in the face of COVID, and stand unfazed by the scorn of those that disagree.
"Follow the Savior" is far more trustworthy than "Follow the science."
Christiane Sun Aug 08, 11:39:00 AM 2021
I don't understand how belief in Jesus Christ is the opposite of accepting medical advice. It sounds cultic to me. Can someone explain the thinking here? St. Luke was a physician (we know from tradition). Our Lord healed people, sometimes using the elements surrounding Him to do so. Our Lord was called, is called, the Great Physician.
I don't understand the 'either' 'or' thinking. I need help to see what people are meaning. I don't intend disrespect for another way of seeing things, but under the present circumstances, the idea of not getting medical help when it is known that it can prevent death or hospitalization in most cases, that confuses me.
'Faith' healing is not outside of my own tradition, no. We believe in 'miracles' from God when people are healed. It has been observed that sometimes when an unconcious person in a coma is surrounded by people praying, the person's vital signs improve.
I believe in the miracles that the Church has investigated and confirmed over the years for example at Fatima and Lourdes. Not everyone is physically healed, no, but some are. And for many, there is a 'spiritual healing'.
I just don't understand the influence of politics into this culture of abstaining from vaccination, especially now when the present Delta variant is attacking children. This frightens me that children are considered 'expendible' to be sent into schools unmasked and put into harm's way.
What am I missing? What am I getting wrong. I trust good people to try to do the right thing for themselves and others and especially for the vulnerable.
How have I failed to understand what seems not to make 'sense' to me, as I am also a person of faith, and I wouldn't, couldn't, use Jesus Christ as 'the reason' not to protect the ones who are vulnerable, no. Please help me see what you all are meaning. Thank you. Am very worried and very sad for people now.

"I don't understand how belief in Jesus Christ is the opposite of accepting medical advice. It sounds cultic to me. Can someone explain the thinking here?"
Key word here is, "medical advice".
I like the invitation for explanations. It opens the door to giving my opinion.
Based upon my personal response to the current COVID madness, the way that my faith in Christ relates to my response to the "fluid remedies" being offered by political power players is that I don't trust them. The presence of Christ in my life leads me to assess them as being "deceivers, liars, and greedy fear mongers" who are willing to deliberately sacrifice the lives of thousands for their underlying purposes.
I don't trust their statistical numbers, I don't trust their constantly changing remedies and mitigation strategy, and I certainly don't trust their motives as genuinely having the health of the nation as the priority.
The distrust is not unfounded. It is supported by the actions taken by those promoting the fear-mongering assessment of the status of things and the causes, i.e.:
To be in positions having authority to control the civil structure and to use it to propagate mandates over individual behavior of "citizens" while at the same time inviting in "millions" of un-monitored, untested, non-treated, COVID-carriers to enter our country and then facilitating their deployment throughout the nation can only be assessed as their concern for health being disingenuous.
Heard news report today that there is verifiable proof of unmarked buses transporting thousands of un-documented illegals into Georgia with an increase in violent crime that is unprecedented. No doubt the spike in COVID-variant presence is affiliated with the intentional strategy of federal government players to increase illegal, undocumented, residents.
To apply force upon the populace to depend solely upon a suspect vaccine as a remedy while rejecting any and all methods of alternative remedies for cure is asinine and another display of those in control having ulterior motives and not genuinely seeking a remedy and save lives.
My resistance has little to do with my being "political conservative" other than in regards to the true definition of that term, not political party affiliation. I insist on maintaining an independent brain that is only submissive to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and dependent upon following the path I believe He leads me to travel.
Good Response RB.
Lissa Roberson Sun Aug 08, 09:19:00 PM 2021
I am blessed and challenged when I read your posts because your relationship with Jesus is sincere and your faith tradition is very different from my own. I learn a lot when I consider your viewpoint about matters of faith and culture.
I think it would be absolutist and utterly simplistic to reduce the vaccine argument to "faith versus science". By faith we believe that God is sovereign over all creation and over every detail of our lives. He has complete power over COVID. He could eradicate COVID instantly if He chose to do so. He has not.
Meanwhile, He has gifted man with a slice of His knowledge, allowing man to discover cures to disease. Through science, vaccines are developed and lives are saved. Sadly, our government is taking a gift of God (scientific knowledge) and is manipulating it for less than altruistic purposes. Thus the conflict.
I'm one that tends to view the world with a "big picture" perspective. The big picture as I see it here is that above all things, God is sovereign over our lives. He has ordained the number of our days on this earth independent of whether we've taken the vaccine. I believe it is faith, specifically faith that God has predetermined the length of one's days, that gives a person peace should they elect to pass on the vaccine.

Lissa and Christiane,
A Jewish physician and scientist spoke to the Jerusalem Rabbinical Court this week. I find that when the message is contrary to an official narrative, the character of the physician and scientist is attacked. In my way of thinking, a doctor who successfully treats 6,000 Covid-19 patients with ZERO deaths is someone who should be heard. I'd be interested in both your thoughts. Just posted it on my blog.
Just made a comment on your next Post. Dr. Zekenko points out that doctors etc. try to make people take the Covid-19 shots that's causing deaths.
I'd like to ask a question: Is there an effort to keep people from getting hooked on pain-pills gone too far?
I asked Walmart to refill a pain pill prescription, but they said I'd have to get another request by the doctor. When he gave it, they requested I.D before they'd give it to me.
Instructions said to take one pill every 6 hours. (That'd be 4 pills a day, but the number of pills was 10. (That wouldn't even last 3 days.)
Right now, I'm waiting to get sleepy enough and for Tylenol to work to not feel pain so I can go to sleep.

This Sarah implicitly believes that the Obama 60th birthday bash, BLM riots, and the Southern Border have a magic shield that prevents Rona virus transmission, while church events and conservative rallies are super-spreader events where the participants deserve to be jailed. The inconsistency, arbitrariness, and hypocrisy of political diktats has done more to cause distrust than anything anti-vaxers have said, and I speak as a strong pro-vaxer.
Scott Shaver Mon Aug 16, 01:51:00 PM 2021
👍 Thanks Jonathan.
"a doctor who successfully treats 6,000 Covid-19 patients with ZERO deaths…"
That is an overstatement. Even Zelenko's own paper didn't say that. It said that 2.8% of the treated patients were hospitalized and 0.7% died. This is hundreds of times greater than the hospitalization and death rates reported, let alone proved, from the vaccine. We also have no information about the control group in that study.

By now, I think you may have figured out that I'm a distant cousin.. Sally is a nickname for Sarah so I might have to take that nickname on so not to confuse anyone . More than anything , I am writing because the wind has been taken out of my sails and I had to defend the name Sarah today :) I just wanted you to know that I am not the Sarah that you wrote about .I am almost positive you would find me a lot more vexing. Lol

Are Search Results Already Old News?
Posted on 10 Jan 2012 By Elise Kumar under SEO & Social Media
In a previous post I discussed Google and Bing. Google does what it does so well that I think it unlikely that Bing (or any other Search Engine) will seriously compete with Google.
But what about things that Google doesn't do as well?
When you do a Google Search, Google of course does not search the entire internet for that query. Google searches its index of the internet, and the information that appears highest in your Search Results could be days or months out of date. For most searches that probably won't worry you too much. Although it can be frustrating waiting a number of days for Google's "spiders" to re-index your website after you make changes to it. But what if you're interested in finding something that wasn't on a webpage a few days ago? What if you're interested in finding information about an event that happened a few days ago? Or even a few hours ago? Or even a few minutes ago?
Google has added some additional search options to the sidebar to help resolve this. You now have the option of narrowing your search results to pages updated within a certain time frame, such as the past year, past month, or even past hour. However, since Google can only produce results for the pages it has already indexed, many of the results that you would get from a search for the past 24 hours wouldn't be as comprehensive as one you would get from the past week because Google hasn't crawled all the new pages yet.
Increasingly, I have been turning to Twitter for certain kinds of real-time information.
Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard of Twitter. Twitter claims to be a service dedicated to answering the question "What are you doing?", but users of Twitter know that its range goes far behind that.
I don't want to go into the ins and outs of how to use Twitter's search tools and #hashtags and @replies (if you'd like to learn more, just let us know and we'll be happy to send you an eBook all about Twitter). The constant stream of updates from all over the world on Twitter means that for certain questions (was that an earthquake?, have they announced the new iPhone yet?, what's happening in Libya?), answers are available on Twitter as things are occuring.
When you are relying on a network of peers for information, accuracy is a very real concern: Celebrities from Eddie Murphy to Justin Beiber have been reported as dead on twitter recently. Incorrect reports of celebrity death have frequently been circulated wildly after first appearing on twitter - even causing erroneous headlines in international news. Celebrity death hoaxes aside, the immediacy and volume of Twitter make it a valuable tool for instantaneous information: something Google Search isn't all that great at.
In 2009, Bing added the ability to search Twitter right through their site. Twitter results are updated (on Bing) every 60 seconds - but as yet, Bing is only indexing high-profile Twitter users. I'm not convinced that mixing up tweets (which are 140-character long snippets) with other web search results is a great idea, or that you can get the full benefit of a Twitter search by only focussing on a few high-profile users. Google also had a similar agreement with Twitter for indexing tweets, but discontinued this practice after July of last year - effectively ending their highly touted real-time search.
Don't think Bing continuing this functionality changes my mind on the Google vs Bing saga though - if it actually worked well, Google would just start doing it too.

Technology in a time of crisis
Posted on 19 Jan 2011 By Elise Kumar under Social Media
Although Twitter is often dismissed as a tool used to tell people about their lunches, the use of twitter during the worst of the flood event was incredible. Information was available on Twitter as it was happening and was used to coordinate evacuations and rescues. Although some hoax information was spread through twitter, on the whole twitter was a fast and efficient way for people in crisis to obtain information and communicate.
More disappointing was the use of this disaster for self-promotion. I saw several people offering to donate in return for "retweets" on Twitter or "likes" on Facebook; understandably, there was also a lot of backlash for that sort of behaviour.
Another brilliant example of how technology has helped with the crisis is Nearmap (an Australian mapping company) - Nearmap isn't as popular as Google Maps, but in most cases have much more up to date and higher resolution imagery.
High resolution images from Nearmap show minute details of the devastation of the recent flood disasters in Brisbane and Ipswich. The photographs were taken at the request of the Brisbane and Ipswich councils and the state government and will help assist with cleanup efforts. You can switch back and forth between different photographs taken only days or weeks apart.
Although the worst of the fl...

Probably due for battery replacement.
The new batteries could be defective or installed incorrectly. Remove all batteries and start over again. Be sure to let the transmitter initialize and begin sending data before you install the batteries in the receiver. If you can't receive a signal, the transmitter may have failed.
Why does my sensor/transmitter not light up in the LCD?
How do I change the time/time zone on my older La Crosse Technology wall clock(BN5 V00U) Put in new batteries&clock is displaying time 2 hours ahead-wrong time zone.Buttons on back do nothing.
New la crosse technology wind speed weather station model # CA87092 set up.wind speed and outdoor temperature showed until this morning.new batteries used yesterday in setup. what is the problem?
The instructions for your station call for a specific set up procedure. Batteries should be installed in the transmitter first with time allowed for it to initialize and begin sending data. After installing batteries in the receiver, you should see wind speed and temperature displayed. BUT, here in the real world I have a Lacrosse receiver currently displaying a balmy 67 degrees inside and a not-so-balmy - - outside. I believe the alkaline batteries used in the transmitter lose efficiency or freeze at low temperatures. Warmer weather restores the outside temperature display.

It's going to be a busy week on 116th Street in Fishers.
Sports entertainment complex Topgolf announced Monday morning that it will open its 65,000-square-foot, three-story venue at 9200 E. 116th St. on Friday.
Topgolf also is just across the street from Portillo's, the Chicago-based restaurant that enjoyed a high-profile opening Sept. 28 and is still drawing big crowds.
It will be the 35th location for Topgolf, which offers games, food, alcohol and other entertainment.
The Fishers facility has 120 climate-controlled tee bays that allows customers to hit golf balls into an area enclosed by netting attached to 170-foot-tall poles (see photo above). The poles along Interstate 69 can be seen from miles away.
IBJ previously reported the facility is expected to cost from $18 million to $25 million to develop. It has created more than 500 jobs.


One of the most versatile tools in the road maintenance arsenal, Microsurfacing is a polymer modified cold-mix paving system that can remedy a broad range of problems on today's streets, highways and airfields.
Microsurfacing begins as a mixture of dense-graded aggregate, asphalt, emulsion, water, and mineral fillers with advance polymers and other modern additives.
The mixture is made and applied to existing pavements by a specialized machine which carries all components, mixes them on the site, and spreads the mixture onto the road surface. Materials are continuously and accurately measured and then thoroughly combined in the machine's mixer.
As the machine moves forward, the mixture is continuously fed into a full-width surfacing box which spreads the mixture across the width of the traffic lane in a single pass. Edges of the microsurfacing are automatically feathered. The new surface is a dark brown color and changes to a finished black surface as the water is chemically ejected and the surface cures. Traffic is permitted within one hour in most cases.
Continuous-load machines utilize support units which bring the materials to the job site and load the machine while it is working thus maximizing production and minimizing transverse joints.

]

I want to make this object
tour_plan = [
    {
        day:1,
        location_id:3,
        location_name:'Colombo',
        tour_id:3,
        tour_name:'City tour'
    }
]

After gothourgh the docs in vuex in figureout that this won't work in reactive manner in vuex mutations.
state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1].tour_id = payload.tour_id;
state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1].tour_name = payload.tour_name;

So I tried these 2 ways.
state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1] = { ...state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1],
                tour_id: payload.tour
             };

Vue.$set(state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1], 'tour_id', payload.tour);

But non of them also doesn't work.
Where is the problem in my code?

A: You are correct about the fact you can't mutate an object/array item by index access without "breaking" the reactivity system.
About what You've tried, according to the documentation of Vue.set, it expects as first argument the entire object/array rather than the length.
So the correct manner is:
Vue.$set(state.tour_plan, 0, payload.tour);

where 0 is the index of the element you want to update(replace)

A: This worked for me.
   Vue.set(state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1], 'tour_id', payload.tour)
   Vue.set(state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1], 'tour_payment', payload.tour_payment)
   Vue.set(state.tour_plan[state.tour_plan.length - 1], 'tour_name', payload.tour_name)

i have a question to the last candlestick newsletter from 05.18.
it's the example of PALM.
i'm always struggling when it comes to a signal like this.
a bullish engulfing on a major moving average and a close above the tee line.
BUT very tight below the next major moving average ma(20).
so what has more meaning and why?
or b) the possibility that it is only the pullback to a major moving average.
does an entry makes sense even if the resistance of a moving average is very near?
and volume wasn't very high.
I don't think anyone can give you a definite answer.
It depends on your BELIEVE about these EMA's or SMA's.
PALM is obviously in a downtrend, so going long near an obvious overhead resistance level (17 $) is a risky play, imho.
Why fight the trend? I have given up this sort of bottom fishing quite a while ago. It didn't work for me.
yes i find it also difficult to decide which support will hold in a downtrend.
that is always the difference between text book examples and real trading <g>.

Dodgers sign well-traveled Jamey Wright to minors deal
By Aaron GleemanFeb 7, 2012, 3:49 PM EST
Jamey Wright will try to make the Dodgers his 11th big-league team after agreeing to a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training.
Wright sticking around this long is pretty remarkable for a guy with an 85-121 record and 4.93 ERA, but lots of those ugly numbers came while starting for the Rockies early in his career and he's actually been a decent middle reliever for a while now.
Wright has a 4.12 ERA in 367 innings since moving to the bullpen full time in 2007, including a 3.16 ERA in 68 innings for the Mariners last season, although his K/BB ratio during that same five-year span was terrible at 235/175.

Loneliness is a decision. No one forces you into feeling lonely, and no one can pull you away from it. No one except for you. There is an incredible distinction between being alone and being lonely, and people often feed into the former by not understanding how to accomplish the latter. In no way are these two exclusively tied to one another.
I met this woman who traveled with her husband each summer on their boat. For the majority of the summer, they are confined to the boat and, therefore, to one another. What could be better? She gets to spend time each day and all day with the one she loves. She told me about how wonderful living on the boat was and all the things she enjoyed out on the open water. Toward the end of the summer, the time comes where her husband leaves the boat for work and she finishes travelling by herself. While, naturally, one would assume assume how lonely she must have been upon his departure, it was quite the opposite. Her smile stretched with a hint of guilt as she told me how nice it was to travel alone. She attributed it to one thing. Making less decisions.
When you're alone, you don't have to tend to anyone, wait on them, or be conscious of their doings. You don't have to ask what they want to eat or make plans for the day. The amount of decisions we make can cause us stress, and we all know how detrimental a surplus of that can be.
It may sound strange, but you're allowed to be selfish. Solitude and personal time allow for you to focus on yourself in a way you could never do with company. Your plans aren't contingent on anyone but yourself and your days can be whimsical to no demise.
On the other hand, loneliness can cause sluggishness, indifference, and stagnation. Especially in this digital age, being consumed by Netflix and social media becomes increasingly more enticing when lonely. But solitude can be liberating and full of exploration.
Think about it, why does this occur? Why do people become lonely? By definition, loneliness is sadness because of a lack of company or friends. At first instinct, combatting this is done by surrounding yourself with people, but that neglects the first part of the definition. Sadness.
So what is the easiest way to make yourself happy? A quick answer might be doing what you love. It doesn't have to be one grandiose event after another, rather it may be better to do a bunch of small things, so when you look back, you have a list of joyful moments to refer to. Whether it be pouring yourself a cup of coffee, going to the gym, or watching the sunset, find those moments that compile satisfaction.
I felt lonely. I lived alone for three months in one of the most remote islands in the world so far away from friends and family. But then I realized I was able to use this solitude to my benefit.
Instead of dwelling on being lonely, embrace being alone.


Using public WiFi hot spots these days is like playing Russian roulette with your personal and private information including your passwords and credit card information.
It's amazing how easy it is for hackers to steal your login and passwords for sites like facebook, gmail, twitter and even your online banking and even more sensitive things like your credit card information.
It's so easy in fact, that even a 7 year old who knows how to search Google can figure it out just like you saw in the video above.
Are you one of the millions of people that have their credit card information saved on file at an online stores or shopping site? If the hackers can get your login and password to one of those site your wallet, credit rating and even your identity could be at risk. Pretty scary… isn't it?
The Internet can be a scary place if you don't know how to protect yourself online from the dangers of public wifi.
As CBS News reports in this news segment video, "if you must use wifi hotspots experts say it's a good idea to purchase a VPN, or Virtual Private Network, that will encrypt your information and keep hackers from stealing what no one else should see".
I have been using HMA Pro VPN since 2011 and I love knowing that HMA is protecting me by encrypting my internet connection when I'm using a public WiFi hotspot.
I have HMA installed on both of my laptop and the super awesome thing too is that I can even use HMA on my iPhone to protect myself when I'm connecting to wifi on my smartphone (it also works on androids and most smartphones and tablet too).
I had no idea it was that easy. I connect to public wifi all the time to check email and facebook. I'm going to get a VPN right now. Thanks for sharing the dangers. I'm sharing this with everyone I know!
It is crazy how vulnerable most public wifi surfers are and how they don't think twice about it. I always make sure I've got HMA when surfing the web on a pubic wifi hotspot. Stay safe my friend.
Yeah… pretty crazy. I'm so glad I know the risks and can protect myself.
Wow, I'm officially never logging into public wifi without using hma. No wonder I get so many twitter DMs where people are telling me to go look at a crazy picture of me doing something crazy.
hahahaha. I get so many of those DMs on twitter too! So annoying! Stay safe my friend… stay safe.
I work on my laptop almost daily at Starbucks. Sometimes I log into sketchy wifi networks that I can pick up from my favorite location since they are typically faster then the slow Starbucks wifi. I'm not worried that I've been letting hackers have a free look up my "skirt". I will now laugh in their faces since I'm protected. I'm almost embarrassed to admit but I had NO idea it was this easy to get tricked.
Woah, give hackers a free look up your skirt?!? You're crazy!
I'm glad that you're now wise to their ways and can block them with some serious encryption from HMA.
I thought the iPhone and most laptop firewalls have sufficient protection??
One of the problem here is that when you connect to an unsecure wifi network you might be connecting to a network set up by a hacker. If this is the case they act as the Internet Service Provider and can see everything you are doing.
So, your firewalls might protect you from them installing a virus on your computer but they can still see you log into different site and if you're doing any banking or using a credit card they can steal this information.
By using a VPN you are encrypting your Internet connection and routing it through a secure server which protects you from a hacker sniffing out your info.


For years, the start of the holiday season has included the tradition of putting paperwhite (narcissus) bulbs in a rock filled pot so that by the time Christmas is here, we'll be greeted by the delicate flowers on sinewy stems. These white flowers, though small in size, create a wonderful and powerful aroma that fills the room. I was thrilled to see that DSH made tribute to paperwhites, the simple flowers that even in the midst of winter, their delicate blooms give hope and light to the coming spring.
WHAT I SMELL: Paper White graces the skin with soft and lightly sweet delicate honeyed tinged florals. The perfume is green without being sharp and very quickly after opening, the narcissus begins to open and bloom on the skin. There's a warmth of orris root at the base of the shining florals and it provides the perfect sense of comfort. Even though the perfume is comforting, that doesn't mean it's like wearing a set flannel pajamas; instead, the perfume exudes grand elegance. Paper White is like a shimmering evening dress under glittering and flickering candlelight. As the perfume continues to develop, the warm heart fills the nostrils with a powdery oakmoss. I can say that wearing Paper White will easily become on of my new Christmas traditions.
A bright sparkling green opening reveals a crepe-like paper / narcissus heart. It's a fresh, modern take on the Spring Narcissus concept that dries down to a soft, green chypre in the base.
Notes: Earl Grey Natural (Accord), Green Narcissus (accord), Iris / Orris, Jonquil Absolute, Papyrus, Rice Paper (accord), Australian Sandalwood, Green Oakmoss, Mysore Sandalwood, Grandiflorum Jasmine, Narcissus Absolute, Bergamot, Tunisian Neroli.
WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE TO ME: Delicate paperwhites of course.
BOTTOM LINE: Although Caron's Narcisse Noir and Narcisse Blanc capture narcissus's rather sharp edges, I believe that makes them both a harder wear. To me, Paper White embodies the heart of the flower with a soft and more approachable manner. I love its elegance and grace…it's just so wonderfully pretty.
Expense: Review based on the Vol de Parfum version. $125 for 30m. Also available in extrait and eau de parfum via the DSH website.
Merry Christmas to you and yours from The Scented Hound.
WHAT I SMELL: L'Heure Mysterieuse has a strange opening that's full of smoke and tar as well as a heavy patchouli that is thick, chewy and rather like paste. The smoke rises off of the skin like some kind of industrial component. This is a very bizarre as I can't see how the opening brings promise of anything beautiful or gentile….or something that represents "Cartier." Thankfully, after a short time, the tar and heavy smoke begin to lift. A dried flatness of incense appears instead and the perfume starts to belie a more gentle persona. But don't get me wrong, there's a strength to the perfume in that it has a fighting energy buried beneath the smoky subdued radiance. After quite some time a light floral appears, once again softening the former intensity. To me, L'Heure Mysterieuse is a hard perfume to describe, but I can tell you that it has a classic old world heart that reminds me of fragrances from the 1970s.
Silence was on the prowl. You could hear it breathing, lurking like desire. The calmness felt only temporary. Drowsiness gained life, slowly jasmine and heavily PATCHOULI. This was the time for listening to your own pulse at the edge of abandon, like a reverse countdown, a voyage into the intimate where everything both takes shape and disintegrates. Withdraw into yourself, escape and focus your mind on your inner self, reaching that point where self-awareness resides. Was it elemi gum, CORIANDER day? Was it incense, FRANKINCENSE night? Soon you must leave the juniper darkness… but not quite yet. First, savor L'HEURE MYSTÉRIEUSE for just one hour – no longer, that's a promise – extracted from deep within, and rediscover your own personal roots.
WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE TO ME: La Liberté.
BOTTOM LINE: L'Heure Mysterieuse Is a like and not a love for me. The opening is weirdly interesting, but the drydown redeems the perfume as it turns into a retro classical scent.

Q: Removing past searches from Google Chrome's omnibar One time I searched for Orange Juice in Chrome's Omnibar. Now, every time I start typing Orange, I get the search suggestion:

How do I get Chrome to stop offering me this search suggestion? If I need to edit some config file, I can do that.
Please don't post answers if you haven't ensured they work first. (This is intended to prevent people from answering "Press Shift-Delete.")
Clarification: I'd prefer a solution in which I can selectively delete entries, not just by time segment. I also prefer a solution that does not involve cancelling any Chrome functionality.

A: Instead of going into Options to delete entries, you can also delete history by hitting CTRL+H:

A: The easy solution to delete a single prediction is:
What annoyed me was entering facebook.com. I was used to write "face" and then press "enter". But i messed it up, and when i was writing "face" instead of auto completing to facebook.com I was ending up on the address "face/" which obviously gave a error, because no such address exists.
The solution is (in my case)
Write the address you want to remove, in my case "face".
Press the down arrow, to select the first prediction, or the prediction you want to remove.
After it is selected, simply press "Shift+Delete".
Enjoy

A: The term Orange Juice is stored in the C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default folder for Windows 7, and in /Users/{username}/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default for Mac OS X, inside a SQLite database file named History (no file extension), in a table called keyword_search_terms. If you're looking to change URL predictions, the table is called 'urls'.
You need to make sure Chrome is not running, so open this page in another browser.
Next, download a SQLite database browser such as SQLite Browser (recommended for OS X), or the Firefox addon SQLite Manager.
With the Firefox addon, you can click on Explorer's address bar and paste %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default to quickly get to that folder.
SQLite browser doesn't show you the hidden files & folders you need on mac. You can choose "Go To Folder..." and paste the path to have the folder opened, or you can go to Finder and have all hidden files/folders shown. Follow these steps to show them. Then go to /Users/YourMacUsername/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome. Drag the 'Default' Folder to the sidebar as a shortcut. Then, in SQLite browser, click the open folder icon in the top left, and then the default folder in the finder sidebar. Select the file named 'History' with no file extension. Then find and go to 'Browse Data'.
Next, open up the keyword_search_terms table, and in the lower_term column, find Orange Juice delete the row and save changes. For URL predictions, open up the urls table and remove entries.
If you want to do this in one command, SQLite can run SQLite SQL scripts, too. Something like DELETE FROM keyword_search_terms WHERE lower_term = 'orange juice'.

A: The Shortcuts Database also has a reference that will pull up the recommendation if you dont go clear it as well.

A: Click the wrench icon in the upper right corner
select options
select under the hood on the left side
select clear browsing data
select a time from obliterate the following items from
check clear browsing history
click clear browsing data
restart Chrome and your searches are gone.

A: Upon further investigation and rereading your question, it seems that you can't nuke search entries selectively. It's buried in there in your profile in some obscure cache file or something.
However, you can disable the autocomplete:

The prediction service is typically turned on by default. Follow the
  steps below to turn it off.

*

*Click the wrench icon tools menu on the browser toolbar.

*Select Options (Preferences on Mac and Linux; Settings on a
  Chromebook).

*Click the Under the Hood tab.

*In the "Privacy" section, deselect the "Use a prediction service
  to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar" checkbox.

  Keep in mind that the address bar shows matches from your browsing
  history, in addition to predictions. If you don't want to see matches
  from your browsing history, clear your browsing history.

You can couple this with the disable history suggestions flag, --disable-history-quick-provider.

A: Type the first letter of the word you search, e.g o (in case of orange juice). When you see the word on the opened section under address bar, navigate to (Orange juice) Hold the shift and delete the whole suggestion USING BACKSPACE. You won't see it again when you type (ora..)

A: This has worked for me, for removing a site from omnbix:
Example removing facebook.com:

*

*Type f

*Use the arrows down-up to select facebook, even if it is first

*Hold shift, hit delete, then release shift (On a mac you have to hit fn while holding shift)

A: Update: this will delete all Omnibar history.
Just launch Chrome with option
--omnibox-popup-count=0

(you may append this line to the end of "Target" field in "Properties" window for Google Chrome alias)
This option will cause Chrome to erase all remembered search suggestions. It will not cause Chrome to turn off suggestions completely.
(original answer provided by some Google user, named Bapabooiee, back in 2009)

A: On a chromebook, you should try shift+alt backspace, that's what worked for me

A: to completely remove your history and searchs goto your account when looged into google select dashboard or just goto:
https://history.google.com/history
there you can remove all your history including switching history tracking off.
When using chrome your bookmarks and searches etc usually sync to your account so when clearing this hostory it will clear throughout your profile meaning when you load chrome that history will also dissapear.
Outside of thast just download any free history eraser to erase all local content from your pc but bare in mind that this does not effect you online google profile.

A: *

*Press Ctrl+h

*Click on clear browsing data

*In the dialogue that appears, check the 6th option - just under the password option - (I have a french version of Google Chrome)

*Click clear browsing data.

A: I'm not sure if this applies to all versions, given that the original question was asked 3 years ago, but I see that this topic is still active, so…
The problem is that Chrome is saving specific sites as 'search engines'. Not sure what's in the site coding that makes it do that, but here's now to fix it:
Options/Settings > Search > Manage Search Engines
You'll see a dialog box with the usual search engines: Google, Yahoo, Wikipedia, etc. Below that you'll see "Other Search Engines". Go through and delete any you don't want. (Hover over the entry. There's an X all the way to the right. Click to delete.)
Sorted. That worked for me at any rate.

A: Alt-Backspace is the equivalent of delete,
so shift-alt-delete will delete items from the search bar.
I have tried and it worked on my HP11 Chromebook, so it should work. Hope I helped!

Speak out against Walmart's latest attacks on workers
The email below is from Lisa Lopez, who walked off her job at Walmart in Orlando, Florida. She is standing up for herself, her co-workers and Walmart associates across the country by fighting for a fair wage, access to full-time hours, and the ability to speak up for their rights. She started a petition on org.credoaction.com, where activists can launch their own campaigns for progressive change. We urge you to support Lisa and her fellow Walmart workers by signing her petition. This fight and others like it are an important part of the fight for economic justice, and CREDO is proud to stand in solidarity with workers who are organizing for a living wage and the dignity in their workplace they deserve.
Aida Alvarez: Speak out against Walmart's attacks on workers
I started my own campaign on CREDO's new site that allows activists to start their own petitions.
My petition, which is to Walmart Board of Directors member Aida Alvarez, asks the following:
We call on you to end management's illegal terminations and disciplinary actions against workers who simply want to support their families and be treated with respect.
Your silence is hurting our communities. We call on you to use your position in the company to immediately reinstate all Walmart workers who were fired for simply exercising their rights.
In early June, more than 100 Walmart workers like me went out on a legally protected strike – the longest the company had ever seen. We were protesting Walmart's attempts to silence us for speaking out for better wages and decent jobs. Apparently we got Walmart's attention.
Since last Friday, Walmart has responded predictably by illegally firing or disciplining dozens of my coworkers.
But we're not going away that easily. Instead, we're coming together to ask key members of the Walmart Board of Directors, like Aida Alvarez, to use their power to reinstate those of us who have been wrongfully fired and disciplined.
Alvarez is a member of the audit committee at Walmart, charged with overseeing legal compliance at the company. She is also a leader in the Latino community who often speaks about the importance of economic empowerment for working people. Her role on the Walmart board gives her an opportunity to make a real difference.
We need to send her a strong message before even one more worker like me is punished simply for trying to make a better future for our families and communities.
Click here to learn more and add your name to my petition to Walmart Board of Directors member Alvarez, to demand she ensure wrongfully fired and disciplined Walmart worers are reinstated.
