On our worst homeschool days, hairstyling attempts with glue, fights over blocks, and a busted toilet sabotage all semblance of curriculum. Evening finds me slumped forward at the kitchen table, holding my head in my hands and begging my husband for Tylenol.
On our best days, spontaneous learning deliciously, vibrantly hijacks any teaching agenda.
In medical education, entire seminars focus on "teachable moments," or unplanned learning encounters that occur during the hospital workday. In such moments, physician-teachers strive to highlight clinical principles to their students amid the hustle of patient care. They note opportunities in real time to instruct learners in physical exam findings, or in the physiology behind a monitor tracing. They seize these moments, and then hurry on to the next task of the day, the next patient, the next procedure.
As anticipated when education and medicine collide, myriad challenges arise. Doctors must be flexible enough to teach without advance preparation. The heavy demands, intensity, and time constraints of clinical care can discourage physicians from capitalizing upon teachable moments. In emergent or emotionally-charged scenarios, pausing to teach a student may be inappropriate, even unprofessional.
Despite the challenges, teachable moments enhance learning with a richness that textbooks cannot even approximate. Sight and sound, emotion, warmth and breath adorn points of wisdom. Such details integrate learning with other thought processes, embedding newfound knowledge in a learner's memory with unique vividness.
On our best days, homeschooling reveals the world in a montage of teachable moments. Freed from the confines of lesson plans, sparks flicker from the imagination and fly toward the undiscovered.
One recent morning, our day was careening in the wrong direction. Things began lovely enough: the winter sunlight streamed into our kitchen. Snow laced the stark tree branches in the backyard, and squirrels ducked in and out of the drifts. My son P requested Tchaikovsky on the stereo, and as notes from The Nutcracker Suite filled our home, I dared to dream about sugarplums, waltzing flowers, and a morning without bickering among siblings.
Then, midway through our devotions, my toddler combed her hair with her oatmeal-smeared spoon. This elicited wild laughter from her brother, who despite my protests, then goaded her to stand upright in her chair. As I bolted to prevent a fall, I knocked over her milk cup, and its contents doused everything within a three foot radius. My son then whacked his funny bone and screamed. I kissed him, scrambled for paper towels to stem the deluge of milk, and whirled about in time to witness my daughter mining her ear with a pair of plastic toy pliers (they were supposed to be banished from her reach?!). I snatched the torture instrument with one hand, mopped milk with the other, and then felt a splat on the back of my neck.
I froze. With gritted teeth, I turned to see my son grinning ear to ear, his spoon perched on the rim of his oatmeal bowl like a catapult.
The next moment was not my finest. I yelled. Their mouths fell agape, and I instantly regretted my response. Lord, I prayed, please help me to model grace.
The morning grew late, and I felt pressured to get on with our agenda for the school day. I fought my impatience, and after breakfast I gave P the clean spoon and fork I'd promised him. I hoped he would purge the impulse from his system, and we could start our lessons.
P balanced the spoon on the bowl at different positions, and slid the fulcrum to different lengths. The effect of each adjustment on the trajectory of a scrap of paper elicited giggles from him.
Suddenly, I saw it. There in his eyes, as he positioned the spoon once again — the spark. We had stumbled into a teachable moment.
We read Simple Machines from the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out-Science series, and talked about levers, pulleys, axles and ramps. Then we unearthed The Berenstain Bears Big Book of Science and Nature, a tattered book P had read at least fifty times independently. Despite his familiarity with the book, the adventures of the morning freshened the pages. We read again about levers, wedges, and wheels. He marveled at a 2-page spread featuring a "chain reaction alarm clock," a convoluted contraption featuring pulleys, gears, levers, and a chicken.
Okay, so we had no chicken. But twine, wood scraps, chopsticks, and cardboard tubes soon littered our floor. The kids tugged each other back and forth across the kitchen with a makeshift pulley designed from a chopstick, twine, and an empty ribbon wheel. P hauled out a box of magnet tile blocks to build ramps. Then he built a bridge to span the room.
When my husband ventured downstairs for lunch, he tripped over piles of simple machinery, blocks, books, and two kids still engrossed in how things work.
The day diverged drastically from the carefully crafted lessons I had planned. It unfolded in movements so natural, so delight-driven, that hours of preparation could not have orchestrated a richer learning experience. The morning evolved into one fluid, spirited, raucous teachable moment. We chased after sparks, and fanned them into flames.
Learning does not begin or end with a lesson plan. It moves and breathes within every wisp of Creation. The Lord infuses every moment of the day with possibility and wonder. He ignites sparks within us, and invites us to chase after them. He welcomes us to grasp at embers, to praise Him as they crackle, glow, and set our minds afire.
So true! All of that! I wish that adults would take to heart, too, the Charlotte Mason quote! I had to giggle about your morning. Classic! If I can keep myself in check, learning happens!
Your description of that morning's scenario sounded so familiar and frustrating. Scenes like this were the main reason I decided to NOT homeschool–along with the fact that I am terrible in math. I would have missed the rhombus connection for sure!
I found you in the link in your CT article…there was a reason God led me to read instead of taking a nap today!
Thank you so much for your kind words! And thank you for the work you do — crucial, but I imagine harried and frustrating at times!


@JBJ, surely a bullet falling at terminal velocity would kill you? I'm pretty sure even a small chunk of rock would kill, or at least seriously wound you, if it was directly impacting your skill/head?
Besides, a small rock hitting you directly is even less likely than a largish one hitting you!

The Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 and Vitpilen 401 have already landed on Indian shores and one of our readers got us detailed photographs of the upcoming motorcycles. While we're yet to hear the official India launch details of the new Husqvarna 401 duo, the motorcycles continue to appear on the World Wide Web via the smartphone cameras. The 401 duo recently made appearance on video and they were accompanied by a couple of KTM Duke motorcycles in Pune, Maharashtra.
Both the motorcycles would be based on the KTM 390 Duke, and thus they will be built around a trellis frame and feature WP upside down forks upfront, a monoshock at the rear, and Bosch 9.11MB two-channel ABS system. Mechanical specifications would be shared between the two as well and the Husqvarna duo will use the 2017 KTM 390 Duke sourced 373.3cc single-cylinder, liquid cooled engine that's tuned for 44.1 PS of power and 37 Nm of torque.
Don't Miss: Production Ready Husqvarna Svartpilen 701 Shows Itself And It's A Flat Tracker!
The Vitpilen 401 is a cafe racer while the Svartpilen 401 is a Scrambler. So while the Vitpilen 401 gets sleek bodywork, and clip-on handlebars, the Svartpilen 401 features a rugged persona. The Vitpilen 401 will feature street-focused Metzeler M5 tyres while the Svartpilen 401 will come equipped with off-road spec rubber with knobby pattern.

Q: Nonbonded interactions on the GPU were required, but not supported for these simulation settings I get this error when I run Gromacs on GPU:
Where can the problem be?

      Reading file md.tpr, VERSION 2018.3 (single precision)

Multiple energy groups is not implemented for GPUs, falling back to the CPU. For better performance, run on the GPU without energy groups and then do gmx mdrun -rerun option on the trajectory with an energy group .tpr file.

Inconsistency in user input:

Nonbonded interactions on the GPU were required, but not supported for these
simulation settings. Change your settings, or do not require using GPUs.

For more information and tips for troubleshooting, please check the GROMACS
website at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/Errors

A: here there are some idea:
You can't use multiple energygrps in any .tpr file that will be run on a
GPU. Previous versions ran but the energy group output was garbage.
Separate groups should only be specified as analysis and done with mdrun
-rerun on CPU.
https://mailman-1.sys.kth.se/pipermail/gromacs.org_gmx-users/2018-August/121644.html
In other words you need to remove energy groups from .mdb file. Than you may add them in rerun step to calculate the free energy for example.

RMH II — Day One : Da Lou to Colby KS
September 24, 2010 Colin
We began attacking RMH II (Rocky Mountain High II) today, with a not-so-early departure from St. Louis this morning. Normally, I'm the kind of driver that tries to leave at the crack of dawn. This morning, though, I elected to have us leave a little later in the morning, allowing us a leisurely morning, knowing that we would be off the road around dinnertime.
As always, the drive across Missouri and Kansas is extraordinarily dull. It's basically the same kind of landscape across Missouri — rolling hills — and the same kind of landscape across eastern Kansas — fruited plains — and frankly, it's just the kind of drive I have to push through. Once we get into western Kansas (and tomorrow, into Colorado), the terrain gets me excited, and the drive gets way more fun.
With the drudge-like drive today, we decided to stop somewhere we'd never been before. Across central Kansas, there are loads of signs advertising Wamego KS as a Wizard of Oz center of the universe. After seeing the signs for a while, we decided it was time for lunch, and time for a sidetrip. Ten miles north of I-70, we found ourselves in a very small town, with what appeared to be one big main street, and surrounded by The Oz Museum, The Oz Winery and Toto's Tacoz. No kidding.
We visited the Oz Museum, and surprisingly, it was actually a fun walk through the history of The Wizard of Oz. I thought it was gonna be pretty cheesy when we first walked in to see a not-so-great figure (wax? statue?) of Dorothy and Toto, but beyond that were a boatload of great artifacts from the film, the book series, the actors and their worldwide impact. For seven bucks, it seemed well worth it, and was a great diversion from the road. After an hour in the museum, we were hungry. The folks in the museum recommended Toto's Tacoz as a staff favorite.
A couple of doors down from the museum, Toto's Tacoz was a bit of a surprise. I expected a place full of emerald green mexican decor, but what I saw instead was a very refreshingly tropical feel, with the only Oz-related items being the names of the items on the menu. We had a couple of really good soft tacos, and just kicked back for a while.
After a couple of hours in Wamego, we got back on the road, and headed on to Colby. Once again, we stayed in a Sleep Inn, and once again, we had a great experience. This hotel had large rooms, with a flatscreen TV and desk (kinda like the one we've visited in Shamrock TX), making it a great place to rest our boots after almost 600 miles of driving.

When Marian Partington was 25 years old, her 21 year old sister vanished. She and her family would not know what happened for 20 years, leaving them in a state of suspended animation, moving forward and yet not. As Marian lived her life, forming relationships, having children and making a career, there was a frozen place which could not thaw until her sister's body was finally found and those responsible were identified. Yet she knew that the way forward must include an attempt to forgive. Her intuition told her that trying to forgive was the only way to free herself. This led to a deep reckoning with the part of her and every human that is capable of doing harm. It then led, ultimately, to work in prisons with people who had harmed other families in just the way she had been. Bringing an open and forgiving heart into the prisons with her, she was able to touch the people on the other side of the equation deeply and fully, bringing a sense of restoration to them and to herself!

Q: MySQL - Print string on mysql error Explanation:
I want to insert string in the result of the query
For example: when I'm navigating to (this site is only for for learning):
http://www.toplinks.co.il/website.php?id=-1+group+by+1

the page is not contains "Warning: mysql_fetch_array():"
When I'm navigating to :
http://www.toplinks.co.il/website.php?id=-1+group+by+99

the site contains "Warning: mysql_fetch_array():"
I want to do something like:
when there is a mysql error :
print "[Error!]"

and when there is no error:
print Null

Is there a MySQL function that can print string when mysqlerror?
Something like:
group_concat(group+by+1,0x5b4572726f72215d)

A: The function to fetch an error is called:
mysql_error()

This returns the last error.
The easiest way to use this (in learning code), is the following:
mysql_query("YOUR QUERY HERE") or die(mysql_error());

I would never recommend doing this in a production website though. It is mainly a quick and ugly way to debug. The "or die()" code snippet can be used after any function that returns a boolean, so as long as your function returns true on success and false on faliure, you can use this after any mysql function

Signature bonuses: Nigeria loses N112bn revenue over delayed bid round
Adewale Sanyolu
The Federal Government's desire to grow Nigeria's strategic oil reserve to about 40 billion barrels and the daily oil production from 2018 projection of 2.2 million barrels per day (bpd) to a higher figure in subsequent years may suffer a major setback due its failure to hold major and marginal oil field bid rounds in more than 12 years after the last edition was conducted in Abuja.
A marginal field is defined as any field that has reserves booked and reported annually to the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), but remained unproductive for a period of 10 years.
But industry stakeholders have expressed concern that an estimated 46 oil acreages have been lying fallow while their potential remained untapped due to the Federal Government's failure to conduct a fresh marginal oil field bid round in more than a decade. The last of such exercise was conducted during the administration of ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo in 2007.
The Group Managing Director of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mr. Maikanti Baru, had in August last year put the number of marginal fields up for grabs at 30, and urged members of the Independent Petroleum Producers Group (IPPG) to participate in the bid exercise when they are eventually thrown open.
Regretbly, close to three years after the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, came on board, a dark cloud still surrounds this all important licensing bid round in the oil and gas industry.
Meanwhile, as an estimated 46 acreages remain idle, the country is said to be losing value on the assets to other countries in Africa, including Senegal, Ghana, Gabon and Angola, who have made tremendous progress in oil production and exploration and have become an investment destination for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI).
For 11 years since the last bid round was conducted, many investors with high hopes that the field would soon be open for grabs have since moved their resources to other countries where they consider the business environment to be more friendly.
Some experts have argued that the failure of the Federal Government to conduct the much awaited oil bid round may have robbed the country revenue in the region of about N112 billion in signature bonuses.
Signature bonuses, according to NNPC, are funds paid by oil companies to the Federal Government upon their successful bid for oil blocks.
While preparing for the 2018 budget estimate, President Buhari, had indicated tht it would be partly funded from the proceeds of oil block sales.
An overview of the 2018 budget proposal of N8.61 trillion, which was presented by the Minister of Budget and National Planning, Mr. Udoma Udo Udoma, in December 2018, reveals that the government plans to fund the budget with N6.6 trillion revenues from various sources including signature bonus which was to contribute 1.7 per cent amounting to N112 billion.
In preparation for the bid round the DPR had last year, set guidelines for the marginal oil field bid round, which was scheduled to take place later that year or early 2018.
The guidelines indicated that scores of investors, who could vie to acquire up to 46 oil acreages during the exercise, would be required to pay $50,000 each for a Competent Persons Report (CPR).
The CPR will require bidders to provide details of their shareholding structure, names of their directors, track record in the oil and gas sector, audited financial statements, partnership and/or collaboration with indigenous firms, and financial resources to bid and pay for the oil acreages.
After the CPR stage, investors will also pay $15,000 each as data mining fees to enable them gain access to the relevant data on the acreages that will be placed on offer.
At this stage of the process, investors will be availed of information on the size of the fields, seismic surveys, and past appraisals conducted by International Oil Companies (IOCs), among other relevant information.
After the data mining stage, the DPR would then commence the technical evaluation of the bids submitted by the firms, during which several investors, who fail to meet the criteria will be dropped while those that pass the technical evaluation process will then be invited to submit their commercial bids.
But the guidelines released then are still under the realm of speculation as government has failed to give a definite timeline when the acreages are expected to be thrown open to would-be investors.
Commenting on the development, Partner, Bloomfield Law Practice, Mr. Ayodele Oni, said the reasons for the delay in conducting the bidding process for marginal oil fields are unknown.
''However, our best estimations would be based on the decline in the oil and gas industry within Nigeria in recent years. The fall in the global price of crude oil has had manifold impact on the Nigerian economy, one of which has been a recession in the Nigerian petroleum industry. With this, the Nigerian government has been faced with measures to revive the industry and reinforce the Nigerian economy, which had otherwise been heavily dependent on oil revenues.
With these, pressing issues in the industry have not centered around the bids for Oil Mining Leases (OMLs), and bidding for marginal fields.''
On the other hand, he explained that another pertinent reason for the delay could be accounted for by the underutilisation of previous marginal oil fields awarded during prior bidding rounds, adding that the government was not satisfied with the development and was threatening revocation of the said awards.
On what the country could have lost to the delay, Oni said as with all underused/unused assets, the presence of marginal oil fields in Nigeria that are left to wallow represents loss of value for the Nigerian economy.
He was worried that the potential profitability of such fields also represent economic waste of Nigerian natural resources, and a neglect of sources of income for the government, stating that the additional revenue would have been put to good use to finance budget deficits and provide infrastructure that would boost national development.
"Naturally, investors may see the timelines for the bidding as perhaps slow and bureaucratic. Another issue that does not favour investors and investment in the industry are the constantly changing declarations for bid rounds. It is near impossible to guarantee the bidding process will be completed within a year, even where the government has declared such. All these provide for uncertainty to all participants in the industry.
On the way forward, the oil and gas expert posited that the timelines and fees for the marginal bid rounds need to be publicised in order to encourage transparency while the DPR should ensure a much stricter adherence to these timelines as a measure to encourage investment in these fallow fields, and a growth in economic output.
For his part, Chairman, Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE), Nigeria Council, Mr. Chikezie Nwosu, told Daily Sun that several investors and stakeholders have been waiting for this marginal field bid round, saying the question is, why have they not happened?
''And that is same question SPE is asking because we have a lot of members and partners who have been waiting for when the bid rounds will come up. The resources are there. Basically, we have to find a way to unlock the obstacles in order to get the marginal bid round thrown up."
Nwosu said the impact and expectation on the marginal bid round is substantial, explaining that the intention of IPPG as echoed by its Chairman, Mr. Ademola Adeyemi-Bero, at the recently concluded NIPS summit in Abuja was for IPPG members to grow production levels by up to 30 per cent of the total production in the next couple of years.
The SPE Chairman said this target is dependent on members of IPPG getting more marginal fields for them to have their investments active.
''You have to see that the IPPG has the intention of growing production but they have to be enabled through access to these marginal fields. SPE and the press must continue to put pressure and ask questions on why we are delaying and losing value,'' he warned.
Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of International Energy Services Limited, Dr. Diran Fawibe, had said in a recent interview that, "Nigeria is not helping itself by locking up so many fields to be developed and for either administrative or policy reasons, we are not getting the fields to be developed. What are we waiting for? We are wasting too much time."
Fawibe, a former General Manager, Marketing, at NNPC, recalled that the marginal fields programme was conceived to give marginal fields to indigenous firms operating in the industry with the financial wherewithal to develop such fields.
"But politicians and vested interests hijacked the process and at the end of the day, some of the people who won the marginal fields are not professionals and some of them don't even know anything about oil and gas business," he said.
A former board member of NNPC, Alhaji Abudullahi Bukar, for his part said, "the tragedy is that money that could have come as investment into Nigeria went elsewhere, especially during the years when oil price was over $100 per barrel.
"The government would have earned huge revenue from the signature bonus and other filing charges because Nigeria has a lot of attractive acreages in very strategic places in comparison to many other countries."
But the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, said the Federal Government was yet to conduct the bid rounds for marginal oil fields because it was still awaiting approval from President Muhammadu Buhari.
Kachikwu at an interactive session with journalists at the inaugural edition of the Nigeria International Petroleum Summit (NIPS), which ended in Abuja recently, noted that Buhari, being the substantive petroleum Minister, needed to give approval for the exercise before it could continue.
According to him, the President would have to examine the process as initiated so far, and sign it off, if he was satisfied with it, before it would continue. That sign off, he noted, had not come from the president hence, the delay in bid round.
"We need to get approvals. You have to understand that there are steps in these things, it has to be signed off, we are waiting for that sign off and I didn't want to raise people's expectations until I have gotten that sign off.
"Bear in mind that I am not the Petroleum Minister and the authority lies with the president. So he is going to look at it and be satisfied with what we are trying to do, what process is in place and then approve that. Until he does that, I don't have the authority to jump into marginal field sales," Kachikwu said in response to a question on why the bid rounds had not progressed as expected.

When President Thomas Jefferson sent Lewis and Clark to explore the West, he told them to look especially for mammoths. Jefferson had seen bones and tusks of the great beasts in Virginia, and he suspected--he hoped!--that they might still roam the Great Plains. In Eleanor Arnason's imaginative alternate history, they do: shaggy herds thunder over the grasslands, living symbols of the oncoming struggle between the Native peoples and the European invaders. And in an unforgettable saga that soars from the badlands of the Dakotas to the icy wastes of Siberia, from the Russian Revolution to the AIM protests of the 1960s, Arnason tells of a modern woman's struggle to use the weapons of DNA science to fulfill the ancient promises of her Lakota heritage.
PLUS: "Writing SF During World War III," and an Outspoken Interview that takes you straight into the heart and mind of one of today's edgiest and most uncompromising speculative authors.
"Eleanor Arnason nudges both human and natural history around so gently in this tale that you hardly know you're not in the world-as-we-know-it until you're quite at home in a North Dakota where you've never been before, listening to your grandmother tell you the world."
"Eleanor Arnason's wise and engaging stories make you question the things you take for granted. How we love, how we fight, how we live."
Ever since her first story was published in the revolutionary New Worlds in 1972, Eleanor Arnason has been acknowledged as the heir to the feminist legacy of Russ and Le Guin. The first winner of the prestigious Tiptree Award, she has been short listed for both the Nebula and the Hugo.
Known for her bestseller, The Jane Austen Book Club, here she offers a short collection of perceptive, entertaining, thought-provoking, and often hilarious speculative stories with a progressive and feminist edge.
The original "Mad Professor" of cyberpunk.
Sardonic and merciless, this satire of the entire apocalyptic enterprise provides a humorous and timely interpretation of the bestselling Left Behind series.
This astounding alternate history tale presents a dramatic encounter with destiny wrapped around the terrifying question of what might have happened if the fateful bomber flight over Hiroshima had gone a bit differently.

This M.U.G.E.N character is Symbiote Spider-Man (Ultimate) version 1.2. He fights similar to Spider-Man, Venom and Carnage. He is MVC + Beat 'em Up style character. There is now a file you can download that will remove the Beat 'em Up style and only leave the MVC style remaining. To remove the Beat 'em Up style part of the character, just replace his CMD with the "No Button Mashing" CMD.
I am open to ideas and criticism, but please try to keep it constructive. No unexplained flaming, questioning sources, or other M.U.G.E.N drama. I've already discussed my sources with the other members that assisted with creating him. Everyone is given proper credit in the credits. So there is no need to worry about stuff like that.
You can download my character at my website:
http://www.freewebs.com/empawk
To download him, just left click the "DOWNLOAD" link, respectively. I hope you enjoy my character.
Edit: You guys should probably pinpoint whatever problems this version has. So that I can fix it in the next update.
Please make a list of PROS and CONS for now. If you can, please explain what's wrong, what's right, and how to go about making the necessary changes, because I'm new at this sort of stuff. I will take all constructive criticism into serious consideration.
For those of you that find this character project to be quite offensive, please click my spoiler:
Yeah, I know it's an unathorized edit of an unauthorized edit that was in beta stage, but I really wasn't around during that time. To me, it was just an abandoned and unfinished project that was rumored to have caused a lot of problems. I don't undersand why people get angry when you pick up their abandoned projects and continue their work (Especially if they don't plan on ever finishing it). M.U.G.E.N should be completely be open sourced in my opinion, unless of course they made their sprites or codes completely from scratch. Than I could totally understand why they would become angry about edits. Most of the sprites used for characters are leaked/ripped from games without permission, anyway, so...
I personally don't find character edits that offensive or edits of betas. I see it as a compliment. M.U.G.E.N authors should feel flattered if someone edits their character or picks up their abandoned projects, because it's like saying that they see potential in your character for greatness. I saw this potential and refused to allow my group's (the authors in the credits) to go to waste, despite all the drama I have received from working on this character.

Hey Empawk, I think he's pretty cool however I do have one request. The move similar to Marrow's where the symbiote attacks out of his back similar ro her bone protrusions, I was hoping you could resprite those so as it looks a little less like her move. As in maybe take the spiney parts off and turn them into something similar to whats going on with Carnage and/of Venom when it comes to the symbiote suit on them.

I CAN FOR I AM!!!!!
Excellent work. I never even considered adding individual combos for each button (button mashing right?). That opens up a lot of ideas. I appreciate the option to choose which cmd. to use. Great work in my opinion. Good blend of spiderman powers/symbiote powers. Plus he's fun to play with. I'm gonna test his a.i. now....

not bad sprite edit, but anyway gameplay feels as if i played zankuten (older) version with swaped sprites and +some extras
and he still have to use old mvc sipdey foreground moves ? this a little boring
something missing
shinaobi360
Do a barrel roll!
Could you put in some actual differences for the other non-symbiote modes you added? As it stands, they just look weird.
His walking speed is way too slow; speeding up some would be nice.
Could you also try trimming the sprites on the spine move? As it stands it looks like the symbiote does some skeleton thing.
I agree with the spine sprites removed off the Marrow-like edited move, as it would help in its appearance alot. I tried to say this before but it got lost in the thread merge.
nkomo said, March 30, 2009, 11:11:44 pm
Button mashing is when press random buttons. Usually someone who is button mashing presses random buttons and hopes that he can accomplish something.
My character possesses my dream version of button mashing. You can button mash a specific button and do some sort of combo. The only place I haven't added this special type of button mashing is in the crouching attacks, because they aren't finished yet. So you can button mash while standing, while in the air, but not while crouching. I gave this character this feature, because I can't concentrate on performing difficult commands if I get angry while playing. So having the button mash combos as backup was perfect for me.
I don't know if others have the same problems as me when they play video games, but I'm sure many will enjoy it, or at least, the beat 'em up fans will like it.
shinaobi360 said, March 31, 2009, 01:01:20 am
Actually, I didn't add any moves at all. I have no idea where they are and have no idea how to edit them. If you tell me where they are, I may be able to do something with them.

Boring?! My feelings are sincerely hurt.
[[D4RK_R4V3N]] said, March 28, 2009, 05:06:01 pm
How do I do that? Which part do I edit?
volzzilla said, March 31, 2009, 05:32:18 am
Multiple people support the idea of editing the Marrow-like move. So I will try to fix it's appearance. By the way, are there any people out there that would like to assist me on this project? I'm trying to finish this character by late May, if I can. After late May, I'll probably be too busy to work on M.U.G.E.N.
I'd sincerely appreciate some assistance. Anybody want to help? I'm only asking for help with stuff I don't know how to do.
I'd like to add some Killer Instinct style stuff like a combo announcer and some combo breakers.
I'd also like to add a couple of wrestling style grapple specials similar to Zangief. I want to do that, because Spider-Man was formerly a wrestler back in the day before he started crime fighting and he never seemed to do wrestling moves at all in videogames. He only did a couple of scoop slams in the Spider-Man series on Fox Kids. The cartoon with a lot of episodes and bulky western style drawn characters.
I'd like see him get some strikers. I was hoping for someone like Wolvenom aka Symbiote Wolverine. That would be pretty badass.
Update (04/02/2009)
may i ask what the latest update was please?

The course is 5000m (5K) long. The course is at the western end of Liebenberg Street, Middelpos, Upington. The course is run on a mixture of gravel paths, jeep track and road . Some sections of the course may accumulate mud, leaves and puddles after rain. Dependent on availability, marshals will be at key sections of the course, or signs will be in place.


Who says a lazy Sunday breakfast can't be elegant? Add some fresh figs to your yogurt, top with granola and prepare a few Mimosas. Instead of Champagne or traditional sparkling wine I'm using Moscato d'Asti, the refreshingly sweet Italian wine. Keep any leftover wine for dessert with dinner. And for a fancy version use freshly squeezed oranges. Enjoy this Al Fresco before the weather gets colder!
Mashed potatoes are one of my favorite sides. I enjoy them so much that I wanted to make a more complex version that can be a standalone dish, or served as an appetizer or side dish. This recipe is an adaptation from foodnetwork.com. For my version I added garlic and fresh mozzarella which I feel elevate this dish to something really special, yet it still remains simple enough to put together in less than an hour.
I eat everything, so I like to mix it up and try to cook with ingredients I've never used. This time I experimented with organic mung bean fettuchini in place of my usual whole wheat pasta. I grew up eating mung beans so I thought why not give it a try. It's made of only mung beans and water which give the pasta a pretty olive hue. They're high in fiber and gluten-free for people who suffer from Celiac Disease or wheat allergies. The taste and texture may not appeal to some people as it has an obvious bean flavor and a bit of a chewy bite.
Growing up, my parents grew bitter melon in our garden in Pennsylvania, so they used it in a lot of dishes. It took me awhile to get used to the flavor as it is very bitter (hence, the name). I wondered what our neighbors thought of us because we were always outside cultivating something, and bitter melon was one of the more exotic vegetables we grew. I knew bitter melon as, Ampalaya, which is the Filipino name. It's also popular in India where it's referred to as Karela.
I haven't made a cold pasta salad in a long time so I was excited to come up with a simple and healthy version. I also finally had a reason to try Vegenaise. VEGE-wha? Vegenaise is a dairy-free, eggless mayonnaise alternative. I heard about it through a few vegan friends and Gwyneth Paltrow (not my friend) saying how great it was.
During the summer you see corn everywhere, so the other day I picked up a few cobs at my local farmers market. Here's a super easy cold corn salad recipe you can eat cold on those hot summer nights. It's sweet, crunchy and a perfect side dish for a family picnic.


With any luck, I'll be migrating the site to a new web hosting provider this week.
At some point I'll be disabling comments and posts on the blog, forums, and wiki so I can be sure we don't lose any data during the migration. There will likely be a couple days during which the site will be down for brief periods as I sort out the configuration on the new server and the new DNS records propagate. Hopefully the disruptions will be brief and I'll have things up and running 100% again by the end of the week.
The details and timing of the migration are still being worked out, so stay tuned for updates.
Update: Order processing should still function normally during the transition. As long as the product pages are up, you should be able to place an order.
Update 2: I'm going to start the migration tonight, if the site behaves strangely – that's why.
Update 3: If you see this message, migration is complete and you are looking at the new site!
Update 4: Some suspicious activity on the blog forced me to upgrade WordPress today (and do a bunch of other cleanup), so the site has been up and down today. It should be mostly working now, but I'll probably be tweaking things off and on for the next few days.
Update 5: Yes, the oscilloscope is upside down. It's that way on purpose. Really.

Want to be Remembered? Put Some 'Wow' into Your Life
by Joel Cohen
Without 'wow,' you're just like everyone else. Wow is the big differentiator that sets you apart from others. Wow is the main ingredient that demolishes mediocrity.
In a world of similarity, with similar businesses in similar locations, selling similar products and services at similar prices to similar people, how does one remember you?
What do you do that makes you remarkable? What do you have that makes people take notice of you and talk about you?
Wow is a state of mind and a series of actions as simple as being kind, or as easy as doing something unexpected. It's the spice that makes an impact on everyone you meet.
Companies are spending (actually wasting) millions to figure out how to be different … coming up with positioning statements that say they're bigger, smarter, faster; they're innovative and unique and are out of the box.
Rather than focus on being different, you may be better to focus on how you're going to "wow" people so they remember you. Because many are doing nothing, the smallest wow can easily make a considerable impact – making you stand out from the others and be remembered.

Looks like there is a possibility of thunderstorms today and likely tomorrow as well. I can see on the Lightning tracking map (click the orange link in the forecast) that the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley are getting a fair amount of lightning. Would love to see some here! Especially if it brought a nice dump of rain with it to cool things off and water my parched and prickly grass.
More of the same through the week. Getting hotter tomorrow and then will start to cool down. Mid-to-late August looks like we might get a break in the dry spell and have some weather come in from the West, but who knows. This ridge of high pressure has been strong and persistent!
There have been extreme heat temperature records set all across Europe and the Middle East this year. 16 in total now. If you'd like to know more about that, check out this blog from Dr. Jeff Masters.
Previous And the sunny weather continues!
