Would you kindly save the world?
Would you kindly Save The World is a 3D free roam shooter with 6 degrees of freedom, and a rocket hell gamplay. Try to dodge hundereds of homing missiles, while fireing back at your enemies. And remember that as long as power nodes are operational all enemies will grow stronger, and some of them will also grow larger. Developed fully in Unity 3D personal edition. I hope you'll have as much fun playing it as I had while developing it.
- Slightly lowered enemy damage output and increased time between power-up charges.


1. In Visual Studio, select File –> New –> Web Site.
2. Delete the Default.aspx file.
3. Download jQuery and qUnit (both qUnit.js and qUnit.css). Add them all to the root of the site.
And by slide 19 you'll make the above test pass. You might have the following code (inside the script tag, or you could put it in a separate .js file).
Once you get to the end, try some other katas. Or, try the same kata with a different style (like avoid for loops, as an example). Everything gets easier with practice.
With code catas you lern by your mistakes (i.e. there is no teacher other than yourself).
Then you can move on to writing your own "lightweight frameworks", which include only what you really need and tailored to your particluar use case. You can start pushing yourself out of the comfort zone by trying different approaches or improving existing ones.
btw: you swapped the actual and expected params of the equals method.
Argh! @ralf - thanks for catching that.


I'm in the NSW country town of Orange for the next few days for the annual Tour de Bois Mini Tour. Each year we ride the main tour over a week or so in October/November, and the mini tour over a two or three day period in February/March.
Orange is an old favourite of the Tour de Bois, having been a stopover on about eight previous occasions. The region is hilly but very picturesque, and it's now a good wine region too. It also affords me a change of scenery for my running. I've always thoroughly enjoyed running in this region.
This photo was taken as I approached the Arizona town of Williams almost exactly six years ago to the day. Williams is a couple of days (of running) south of the Grand Canyon. By the time I reached the canyon, however, most of the snow had melted. By the way, this highway is now part of Route 66.


items of inner source projects (ISPs) are accessible to everyone within the organization and cross-functional collaboration is encouraged. The Collaboration Management Suite (CMSuite) developed by the Open Source Research Group at the Friedrich-Alexander University Erlangen-Nürnberg supports the analysis and visualization of such collaborations. CMSuite lacks features to account for contributions to ISPs. To draw conclusions, a database engineer has to define complex series of SQL queries or rely on simple, singular value metrics. This thesis elaborates a REST-based architecture that can be used to retrieve accounting related data in the form of a timeline using Apache Lens and Java. The data sets are visualized in an Angular 2+ frontend where the user can navigate and filter them. Based on this visualization, a non-technical user is able to explore the historic data of ISPs without needing to understand the underlying data schema and without needing to define database queries. As a result, the added functionality will not only save time but also make the CMSuite accessible to a wider user group.

My goal this week was to whip up another recipe for you guys. That was until I ran across something that got me so excited I had to share it…I promise I'll get a new [actual] recipe up next time I post something edible related.
For those who don't know, I'm a big fan of loose leaf tea. I don't drink coffee, so when I want a specialty drink, or something warm, I turn to tea. One tea company I'm quite fond of it Adagio Teas. In the past, I've signed up for their monthly tea club to keep a variety of teas automatically coming my way each month for continued enjoyment.
Since I've been doing the automatic monthly clubs I [somehow!] failed to notice the coolest section of their site…Until this past Sunday that is! They have a whole area of their website dedicated to fandom based tea blends that are actually custom blends created by fans themselves.
Not only are the tea blends carefully crafted, but most of the tea tin artwork itself is just gorgeous! Just take a look at the Plumb Bomb tea below from a Kingkiller Chronicle themed set. Love it! In fact, some of the tea collections are available for sale as magnetic shadow box collections. You can thoroughly enjoy your tea by not only drinking it, but by putting it on display too.
Further more, there's a section of ChariTEAS. Pick your favorite non-profit and a portion of your sale will be donated to the charity. For example, make a purchase of the Stranger Things Dustin blend and part of the sale will go towards the St. Jude's Hospital.
To paraphrase one of the reviews left on The Family Business Supernatural tea, if you've been searching for a tea to express your feelings for the fandom, then this is it! Heck, there's even a collection of tea blends labelled as the Cosplay Survival Kit. This collection includes a "selection of soothing blends to calm frayed nerves from sewing setbacks, along with energizing teas to help you pull those all-nighters just before the con." There's even one for con crud (pssst…which, you can avoid if you take proper precautions).
Aside from its warmth and comfort, one of my favorite things about tea is that it's the perfect compliment to so many of my favorite hobbies! Whether I'm reading a book, watching my show, playing a computer game, or enjoying a board game -having a cup of tea just enhances the activity in a wonderful and soothing way.
I do want to note this is not a sponsored post. I'm personally a big fan of Adagio and their quality ingredients. My teas have always arrived packaged nicely and they keep well. Adding a level of geekiness is just the cherry on top!
Which fandom have you always wanted a complimenting tea for? Let me know in the comments below.
I wish I drank more tea!!
No better time to start than now! 😉 I like to tell people that tea is similar to beer. It's somewhat of an acquired taste, but there are also many varieties and each has it's own flavor profile. Even if you've tried one…or five…there are other blends and varieties to test.
It is! Since last weekend, I've been contemplating what geeky blend I would make if I were to make my own.
Fantastic.My boss loves tea and adores Star Wars,so appreciate the bday gift idea.I like that some of the teas have high caffeine and others none to small amounts,so was able to purcharse a variety.
That's awesome. So glad I could spark an idea for you.
In opinion, loose leaf is is levels above bagged tea.

1Even today, Baudelaire is still the preeminent French presenter of Poe1. Although not his first French translator, he was the most influential, devoting some fourteenyears of his life to translating Poe's tales and, minimally, criticism2. That Poe did not make his catalytic impact on Baudelaire until 1851, four years after his first Poe encounter3, is due to more than just the events of 1848 leading him away from Poe until the arrival of the Empire4. The intervening years were spent questing elsewhere precisely what Poe would give him: unity, transcendence, coherence, meaning, form. In 1847 Baudelaire was still struggling with forces as diverse as Hugo, Fourier and the bourgeois, Champfleury and Realism – all as much potential sources of unity as Poe would soon become. If the 1846 Salon makes short work of Hugo, it sees eclecticism as the enemy as it wrestles with nature in a quest for transcendence through the real5. Nature, in '46, is still a dictionary, not yet the pâture de l'imagination it will become in 18596. The epoch's central problem: how to find a unifying system, an overarching ideology to give meaning in both life and art, is symbolized by Champfleury's Chien-caillou, with its opening inventory of Chien-caillou's garret, and its contrast of style romantique and style réaliste7. Style romantique may be gratuitously elaborate, but style réaliste is impassively factual, refusing the imaginative illumination which might give meaning. Transcription is the watchword of Realism, but the danger with a list is that it could be infinite, stupidly enumerating without ever hierarchizing or giving meaning.
An immortal instinct, deep within the spirit of man, is thus, plainly, a sense of the Beautiful. This it is which administers to his delight in the manifold forms, and sounds, and odours, and sentiments amidst which he exists. And just as the lily is repeated in the lake […] so is the mere oral or written repetition of these forms, and sounds, and colours, and odours, and sentiments, a duplicate source of delight. But this mere repetition is not poetry. […] There is still a something in the distance which he has been unable to attain. We still have a thirst unquenchable, to allay which he has not yet shown us the crystal springs. This thirst belongs to the immortality of man. […] It is the desire of the moth for the star […] a wild effort to reach the Beauty above […] And thus when by Poetry – or when by Music, the most entrancing of the Poetic moods – we find ourselves melted into tears […] through a certain, petulant, impatient sorrow at our inability to grasp now, wholly, here on earth, at once and for ever, those divine and rapturous joys, of which through the poem, or through the music, we attain to but brief and indeterminate joys.
The struggle to apprehend the supernal Loveliness – this struggle, on the part of souls fittingly constituted – has given to the world all that which it (the world) has ever been enabled at once to understand and to feel as poetic9.
'All high excitements are necessarily transient […] without unity of impression, the deepest effects cannot be brought about […] As the novel cannot be read at one sitting, it cannot avail itself of the immense benefit of totality.
If any literary work is too long to be read at one sitting, we must be content to dispense with the immensely important effect derivable from unity of impression […] [Paradise Lost] being deprived, through the extremeness of its length, of the vastly important artistic element, totality, or unity, of effect'14.
4In France the conte had been seen, pre-Baudelaire (with the salient exception of Mérimée15), as essentially discursive, governed not by brevity but extension16, characterized by freedom, diversity and licence, as aver the 1830s collections' very titles : Contes bruns, Contes grivois, Contes lycanthropiques, Le Salmigondis, Contes de toutes les couleurs. And the conte was told in a context – in the case of these examples, in the volatile context of post-July Revolution France, often evoking the conte as vestigially, vitally, oral phenomenon, narrated live to an audience: 'le phénomène oral qui fait la puissance de l'acteur et du conteur' celebrated by Balzac and Gautier17.
And then slowly opened the eyes of the figure which stood before me / Et alors je vis la figure qui se tenait devant moi ouvrir lentement, lentement les yeux (Ligeia, Pl. 257)19.
6Such examples introduce a connectedness, via notation absent from the originals, restoring a social connectedness central to the social function of the pre-Baudelaire conte but signally lacking in Poe. Baudelaire's renderings lose the strangeness of Poe's formulations, the way his sentences stop short, shock us, leave us high and dry. Poe's utterances expose language as an absolute, yet also aleatory, the ultimate reality of the text – something revealed even more completely in Poe's verse (e.g. Ulalume, The Raven, above all Annabel Lee), whose incantations amplify the very materiality of language, the status of words as things, the building blocks both of verse but also of the world – Mallarmé's 'cas littéraire absolu'20. The shock of social disconnection, of psychopathic dysfunction, present in many Poe narratives (The Gold-Bug, The Domain of Arnheim), or of aberrant reconnection (the narrator's obsession with the old man's eye in The Tell-Tale Heart) is partly lost by such translation failings – or overcompensations? For these 'flaws' betray a(n unconscious?) desire to naturalize Poe, filling his unnerving semantic gaps - which, like Mallarmé's, are often negative plenitudes - with a syntactical, grammatical logic absent from the original, creating a new, if unfaithful, completeness, yet diminution, of meaning.
7These very translation 'failings' perhaps connected Poe to his new French audience more effectively than closer renderings, or than Poe's originals to his first American readers back home. Yet Baudelaire's 'transitivities' nonetheless correspond to something which is already present, connoted by Poe's generic label Tales. Poe's choice of this designation, in Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque,evokes the folk narrative roots and resonance of the story, tales told to an audience, implying a teller as well as a hearer or a reader. Many of Poe's start traditionally, with a first-person narrative about an acquaintance, the voice of personal experience: The Gold-Bug, for example, The Purloined Letter, The Domain of Arnheim, or The Man that was Used Up. Other significant traditional features are taken up and transmuted. The most fundamental is repetition. Repetition, here understood syntactically and morphologically, rather than psychoanalytically or philosophically21, is a founding feature of folk narrative22, which depends on repetition both for its transmission and as its very raison d'être: the folk-tale or legend is repeated from teller to teller, from generation to generation, and the purpose is to pass on wisdom: tales are always told at least twice. Indeed, repetition is the pivot between poetry and prose, common to both the folktale and the ballad – as Poe recognized23 but only Baudelaire could fully realize, in the swirling circularities of the aptly-named Petits poèmes en prose.
8Poe and Baudelaire thus appropriate the tale, turning this vestigially-oral mode of social discourse and exchange into a written, literary form. The linearity of the conte is supplanted by the structured concentration of what Poe calls elsewhere 'the Short Prose Tale' – almost a short story in all but name24 – along with stipulations that tales should create 'unity of impression' and be 'read at one sitting'. In his Notes nouvelles sur Edgar Poe and his 1859 Gautier article, Baudelaire repeats and develops Poe's views25; but he turns Poe's 'tale' into 'nouvelle', adding more written and formal implications, as well as the suggestion both of novelty and reality, along with, often, subject-matter dealing with emotions or relationships26. Poe's 'single sitting' becomes Baudelaire's 'lecture accomplie toute d'une haleine', substituting a dead metaphor for what in Poe's words is putatively still very much a live activity, of experiencing a narrative in a given place and for a certain time – a time which, in fact, in chronometric terms, is anything other than certain, but which is conceived of as a whole, a unity ('single sitting') and results from an implicit agreement between narrator and audience. Poe's 'definition', or perhaps rather characterization or assessment of the tale, still implicitly acknowledges its oral forebears, that stories are recounted in real time (even if only the fictional real time of the printed frame story) ; Baudelaire tidies this up, making the tale a matter of definition and constraint, feeding his own poetic conception of intensityinto Poe's craftsmanlike and analytical views about effect: Baudelaire echoes Baudelaire, as much as Poe: 'la nouvelle jouit des bénéfices éternels de la contrainte'27 is mirrored, less than a year later by a remark on verse: 'parce que la forme est contraignante l'idée jaillit plus intense'28.
9In some respects Baudelaire's seems like a deliberate misreading, a taking of the wrong end of Poe's philosophical telescope for the pursuit of his own goals: this notion of an idea spurting forth from form, for example, is the absolute conceptual opposite of Poe's very sensationalist, not to say sensational, stress on effect. Yet in both cases form is a way of containing dysfunction, an attempt to shore up something which might otherwise collapse. In both Poe and in Baudelaire, 'folk' and traditional forms are subverted – and not just by the accident of Baudelaire's translations. In Poe, the stories which start with an acquaintance, with a seemingly normal social situation, end with something awful: the narrator's friend in The Gold-Bug turns out to be a madman, and a madman precisely because he is excessively rational, his friend in The Domain of Arnheim to be a crazed recluse. In The System of Professor Tarr and Doctor Fether, we begin with a seemingly normal situation in an admittedly abnormal setting – the Governor's drawing-room in an asylum – before gradually discovering that everyone, even the asylum-keepers (even the narrator?), are mad. In Poe, the social becomes the psychotic.
10Baudelaire accentuates this tendency. His translates the Tales of Poe's title as Histoires grotesques et extraordinaires, downplaying the original's echo of folk-narrative, and develops the aberrant in his own brief narratives, the Petits poèmes en prose, of which so many recount shocking happenings expressing a breakdown in social or interpersonal relations: Le Mauvais vitrier, Le Gâteau, La Corde, Mademoiselle Bistouri. The traditional is turned intosomething specifically urban and modern. If the single, shocking event found in both writers concurs both with canonical modern definitions of the nouvelle (Goethe's stress on surprise, explicit in his stipulation of the 'unerhörte, sich ereignete Ergebenheit'29, Heyse's Falke) it also looks back, like Heyse's definition, to the traditional – to the role played by the surprising falcon in Book V story XI of Boccaccio's Decameron30.
11So it is also with repetition. The repetition which is the very structural template of traditional oral narrative, the measure of meaning and memory, and its means of transmission, becomes instead circular, a pathologically obsessive act. In The Tell-tale Heart, repetition, in expression and in action, as, for example, the 'seven long nights' in which the narrator spies on the old man, is a mark of obsession, not the incantation necessary to memorizing or transmitting narrative, culminating in 'the beating of his hideous heart'31. Repetition, in the beating of the heart, in the ticking watch to which it is compared, becomes the transcendent reality, paralleling the narrator's nervousness at the beginning and in the middle of the story, which is impossible to locate temporally: does it happen in the past, when the events were occurring, or now, as he recounts the tale, or at both times at once, as its very first line implies: The Tell-Tale Heart is thereby suspended between viva voce oral and written retrospective narrative, between the conte and Poe's 'Short Prose Tale'.
12In The Cask of Amontillado, the story is structured around a larger pattern of recurrence, in which the initial pattern of apparently normal social contact – the narrator's disingenuously friendly approach to Fortunato – is soon undermined as he leads him through a pattern of repeated phrases and preoccupations ('I have my doubts', 'Let us go', 'the nitre', 'the Amontillado') and a labyrinth of passages to the cellar where he walls him in, leaving him to die. Similarly,in Un hémisphère dans une chevelure, Baudelaire's prose version of La Chevelure, patterns of repetition in prose stand in for the tight-knittedness of rhyme and metre in verse: the repetition of 'longtemps, longtemps', 'comme', 'contiennent', 'tout', the anaphoric incipits of 'Dans l'océan de ta chevelure, j'entrevois', 'Dans les caresses de ta chevelure, je retrouve', 'Dans l'ardent foyer de ta chevelure, je respire'. Rather in the manner of Poe's first-person narratives, Un hémisphère reverses focus from the verse-poem's focus on the other conceived of as an object of desire, to the more subjective, tale-like focus on the love-object's impact on the narrator. But it is a tale in stasis, a reflection on a beatifically-suspended present, in which (re-)iteration is the repetition of plenitude. It is a realization of Poe's notion of repetition as 'a source of delight' proposed in The Poetic Principle32.Yet the repetition is also not unlike that of, say, Annabel Lee, leading ultimately not to intensity but to death : the 'cheveux élastiques' which give the impression of eating memories feed but ultimately bleed him of life.
14It is a descent into the maelstrom, yet the opposite of Poe's: a well of plenitude rather than a pit of despair. The tension between space and confinement which in Poe tales like The Pit and the Pendulum or The Cask of Amontillado always leads to death, the volcano always figuring a void, becomes in Baudelaire a virtuous circle, a plenitudinous dialectic where space can always mean potential, as for example in Les Fenêtres.
15The concentration which Baudelaire takes from Poe34 thus becomes fully justified, not as a traducing of his essentially viva voce 'narrative told at one sitting', but as a legitimate reconceiving of what short fiction, the tale, might be. This arguably goes further than the mere expression of a Baudelairian unity or transcendence. In its frank admission of the impossibility of moral improvement, it confirms rather something latent more in short prose narrative than in verse, and which Baudelaire's prose poems first bring out: the impossibility of moral progress even through the tale inviting a reflective more than a conclusive narrative moral message, with a moral agnosticism which is properly poetic in nature. In poesy, as Eureka tells us, 'Poetry and Truth are one'35; and The Philosophy of Composition's fundamental lesson is that the most elevating pleasure lies in 'the contemplation of the beautiful'36 – that composition is, ultimately, philosophical: etymologically, a placing-together which makes total unity. Baudelaire's prose poems expose something inherent in Poe and bring it to fruition. It is Baudelaire, perhaps more than Poe himself, who takes poetry in the tale jusqu'au bout de la prose, who achieves its true poetic destiny.

There are three options when it comes to weight and nutrition. Though the number of diet fads in fitness are endless, it ultimately comes down to your goal (being the option you want to take) and how you want to get there. You can opt to lose weight, gain weight or maintain weight. Simple, yes I know. The hard part is actually implementing and figuring out what will work best for you.
A problem I have with "diets" these days is that the majority are purely focused on losing weight and losing weight fast without any regard to maintaining muscle, let alone build muscle. This is okay when you have a lot of weight to lose but what do you do after the weight is gone. Do you still continue to starve yourself at 1,500 calories per day?
The answer to this is, "No!" There is a better way to keep the fat off while building muscle. This isn't a quick overnight scheme. It takes time and effort but is possible to do.
Rule #1 – Looking to Lose Weight? Don't Be Afraid to Eat!
There are two problems I notice when someone is trying take off the pounds. The first is they restrict themselves to the least possible amount of calories possible. A sure sign that the diet will ultimately fail. The second problem is the food used to take those calories in. Not only has the victim of this so-called diet sabotaged himself with a tremendous caloric deficit but he has also succumbed to the newest flavor of Weight Watchers frozen dinner that only has 350 calories. With that number of calories, it must be healthy and nutritious!
Be reasonable. Shoot to lose one pound a week. This gradually gets you used to being in a caloric deficit and will help increase your confidence as you go along. Most likely, by shooting for a one pound loss per week, you will lose a bit more than that. This is okay but you should should shoot for an average of 4 lbs per month.
The advantage of a slower weight loss program is that it prevents you from losing too much muscle while you are losing weight. Obviously, to be your best version of Jacked & Strong, you will want to put on muscle after reaching your weight loss goal so you should be incorporating some strength training with your diet to prevent any uninvited muscle loss. You are going to lose some muscle but let's not lose all of it. You are only hurting yourself. Because if you're just sticking to the treadmill, you are doing it all wrong.
Because if you're just sticking to the treadmill, you are doing it all wrong.
Regarding what you should eat, stick to the outside perimeters of the grocery store. Meaning produce and meat. You will inevitably have to use the aisles of your local market but stay away from the frozen dinners and easy meals. The boxes and packets are loaded with carbs and sodium. To be successful on a weight loss program, you will need to prepare your own food. Cook ahead of time, store the meals in Tupperware and you will never go hungry.
Bottom line: If you want to lose weight, don't be afraid to eat!
If you're trying to gain weight, you are most likely an athlete. So athletes, listen up! Get over telling yourself, "I'm to full!" and start eating. Eating needs to be at the constant forefront of your mind. You need to figure out the minimum amount of calories you need to maintain your weight and then eat 500 more calories on top of that. This will get you up to a pound of weight gain per week and will not overload your body with junk fat.
Eating needs to be at the constant forefront of your mind.
Rule #2 – Looking to Gain Weight? Don't Be Afraid to Eat!
Yes it's the same as in rule #1, if you are looking to gain weight you should not be afraid to eat. This one really bugs me but there is a really simple solution. You should eat more! The complaints I here when telling people this is that they are too full to eat or that they're not hungry all the time.
Sports training, weight training and daily living are burning up a bunch of calories. You need to counteract the calorie burn by stuffing your face with the most nutritious foods that are available to you.
Short on time but need to get those calories in? A trick I use when trying to put on muscle mass is to eat peanut butter. Two tablespoons put you at 200 calories and couple that with some bread, and if you prefer jelly, you've got a cheap meal with a good amount of calories. Eat two or three sandwiches at night if that's what it take to get your weight up. You've got to go all in.
Bottom line: If you want to gain weight, don't be afraid to eat!
Regardless of which end of the spectrum you are on, whether to lose weight or gain weight, you should be weighing yourself on the scale daily. Do this first thing in the morning right after you pee! Be consistent and adjust your diet accordingly. Just don't give up!
Don't be the person telling me you can't do this. Anyone freaking can! Get your mind right, count the calories, eat and don't starve yourself. Lose fat, gain muscle, Stay Jacked, Stay Strong!


A lot of times, in our culture and our society, we put romantic love somehow on a higher plane than self-love and friendship love. You can't do that. You have to honor and really fully invest in all these different loving relationships.
I haven't isolated myself. I am not living on a yacht somewhere. I am not tucked away or behind a gate somewhere. I am not flying on a private plane. I am going to the airport, I am with people, some of the interactions are good, some of them are not so good, but it keeps me in touch with being, you know, part of society.
If you think about computing, there isn't just one way to compute, just like there's not just one way to move around. You can have shoes, you can have a car, you can have a bicycle, submarine, rocket, plane, train, glider, whatever. Because you have one doesn't mean you get rid of another one... But PCs continue to be important.


The show is set to create a platform for specialist exchanges between exhibitors and the international trade press before the event itself get underway.
Exhibitors across the globe will get an ideal opportunity to draw attention to new products and to their presence at the fair, thus boosting their business opportunities to the new set of marketplaces.
Organised by Messe München GmbH, the show is expected to provide vast opportunities to the exhibitors and visitors to meet and address the global audiences.

Catching up on the most interesting exoplanetary system to-date, as well as a couple of notable findings by Kepler mark 2.
The orbits of TRAPPIST-1 b-h, to scale with the Inner Solar System as well as Jupiter's Galilean Moons. Image credit: ESO/O. Furtak. [Click to enlarge].
Lingam and Loeb just published a paper describing mathematically the likelihood that life, should it exist on one of the TRAPPIST-1 worlds, may be able to "island-hop" between the other worlds via impact debris that is thrown into space during impact events.
This "island hop" hypothesis rests on the premise that life may exist on one of the TRAPPIST-1 worlds and there is either some rocky or icy material, in the form of asteroids and comets, that is available to impact the life-harbouring world. It is predicted that it is up to 1,000 times more likely for life to be able to "island-hop" about the TRAPPIST-1 worlds than it is for life to do the same between Earth and Mars – under the most optimistic conditions – the model suggests.
In other words, if we ever do end up finding life on one of the TRAPPIST-1 worlds then we can expect to find evidence of that life on at least one of the other, nearby worlds (assuming more than one habitable world in that system).
The Kepler Space Telescope, since retired from scanning the tiny area of space within the Cygnus constellation and now delegated to scanning (and confirming) stars with transiting worlds closer to home, has recently taken a glance at the TRAPPIST-1 system to help confirm the data acquired initially by the Spitzer telescope.
Rodrigo Luger used an orbital resonance pattern that appears to exist between the seven exoplanets to pin down the orbital period of the outermost world – to 18.77 days. He also noted that this orbital resonance could prove instrumental in understanding the physical and mathematical mechanics behind planetary migration because it is suggested that the TRAPPIST-1 orbital resonance pattern was set into place fairly early in the system's existence.

The "Pale Red Dot" is receiving its very own climate forecast, thanks to some advanced computer modeling being done by a team led by Dr. Ian Boutle. The results so far are that Proxima b is able to host habitable regions on its surface even if tidally-locked and especially granted the flared nature of its host star. They also noted that the habitable areas of Proxima b increase in size/number if the world orbits in a 2:3 resonance like Mercury (i.e., completes two orbits about its star in the span of three of its days). Moreover, its orbit is more elliptical – also like Mercury's orbit.
A quick word on the next big thing in listening for extraterrestrial communications: The "Breakthrough Listen" program is making use of three large radio telescope arrays (Green Bank Telescope, Automated Planet Finder, and Parkes Telescope) to scan the skies above for any potential extraterrestrial signals sent our way. Of the petabytes of data collected so far, 11 apparently stood out as requiring further analysis – only to be determined as being unlikely to be artificial in nature. Better luck next time….

A few weeks ago, I was having lunch with Jeff, an Atlanta lawyer.
Lawyers don't really pull punches. I looked at the secretary as she walked out. She had just delivered us hot croissants. She looked like a model. I was at a loss for words, so I just watched her body cascade through the doorway.
"What?" I was in my high school guidance counselor's office.
I wasn't actually planning to go to college at the time. I wanted to get a GED and go to cooking school. I didn't really have a chance to contemplate that–I came out of the closet, my family imploded, an in-state university seemed like the most reasonable escape, and the University of Georgia accepted me. It was a perfectly acceptable path, though the only one, short of some less glamorous delay. So I left Milton for Athens, with an estranged family in my wake.
Nobody had ever asked me that. It took me a minute. In my head, I unwrote the formation of HC, and rewrote the story in which I instead joined the law review. All of the relationships formed among all of the different people that had interacted with it came apart and joined other connections in the universe.
You'll probably need to click the next image to zoom in and see it in all of its glory, which shows all of the people I got to know as a direct result of forming the club during that summer. From left to right: Kelly, Jon, Rio, Todd, Rio, Rio, me, Chris, Rob, Christy, Chavez, and Laurie.
Jonathan intended to photoshop out Judas Iscariot in lieu of photoshopping in the head of an actual Judas, but instead accidentally photoshopped out the entirely innocent Thomas the Apostle. So thanks to Jonathan's slip in regard to da Vinci, Todd is depicted as Judas, even though Todd has no ill designs to stage a coup, much less the Facebook admin capabilities to attempt it. As far as I know. I'm watching you Todd!
What fascinates me about climbers, and something I've discussed (more eloquently) before, is the many alternate futures that stood before them. They ignore a lot of high school guidance counselors and their equivalents to become the people they are today, and ignored the priorities of the universe they were born into to create a new one. This is the je ne sais quoi that I can't explain about HomoClimbtastic–it's not a climbing convention any more than Woodstock is a concert. It's a Saturday evening in the salon of Gertrude Stein. If Matisse made Bear Grylls memes.
We love anyone with the audacity to rename themselves "Bear Grylls".
I was briefly concerned about the racial stereotypes conveyed by this meme until all of my Asian friends liked it on Facebook.
I think Christy was frustrated with the proportion of Facebook posts devoted to Bear Grylls themed-meme images. So naturally, I made a Bear Grylls meme for Christy.
When his half-eaten corpse was found next to a box of 500 unopened Clif bars and a satellite phone, it was decided that she either didn't like Blueberry Vanilla, or thought it was the most efficient way to get him to stop talking.
Incorporation into subsequent memes is probably the only cognizable benefit to volunteering at an HC convention.
As chance would have it, when I was living in Geneva some time later, my friend/roommate, an attorney, had a meeting with the Geneva international trade lawyer.
"It was a very awkward conversation," he said.
