Hello, I still breath ~ The left stranded thread
ShinNessTen posted a topic in General Discussion
Y'all... we are all dead, you noticed? And yeah, you probably are aware, but today I would not want to speak ill of the dead. (when in reality, I may actually did) Today I just would like to, mayhaps, share some bonding memories and at the end even MAYBE announce a little competition(in competition zone, for those interested) to spice life into the forums again... even if I'm pretty much the least qualified, due to me being the absolute most inactive member in existence. Also I'm aware that putting my face into the spotlight might irritate some people, because of... let's just say reasons, but I will ignore those from now on, as I now understand what I truly want to have in this existence: tl;dr: Y'all are awesome, keep at it, don't give up, I won't speak for everyone, as everyone wants to speak for themselves, yadda yadda.. I just want to let you know, that no matter the situation, we are STILL here, breathing, regardless of our current situation... and that's what everyone really should be happy about, and if not, then maybe for just a minute. My memory goes as far back as the late 2013s. I remember being the most cringiest kid, having this mentally awesome game that I had no idea would later turn into a giant pile of mess, because it was way too ambitious. The first ever, what I consider friend, I met was @Loriesquare, (back in MY days, we weren't callin' him that, but EienNanashi). Back then I had big plans, but I knew the concepts and everything were extremely flat and landed on their faces the moment I started writing my games story, made the art for it and "borrowed" tracks from other games, that are supriorly better than what I even had planned with my childish brain. Mister Nanashi, back being a lil' ol' lad was actually the first to be interested intensly in my Project I titled "Soul Effect" and from there on, I was motivated to make big plans regardless of them being too ambitious. That push you feel when someone, for the first time, mentions that you are making a cool game is like no other. Eventually you start getting used to compliments and slowly start seeing the dark sides of your hobby/job more than the positives. We've all been there... maybe... you know, when you are kinda sick of receiving praise from the same people and want to come out more. Now I'm not saying this is the case for all the devs, but it was most certaintly for me. I am the kinda person to strive for greater heights and ignoring messages about the "impossible" feats you want but can't accomplish. People tell you "You'll get there, but slow it down a little and play by the rules." I started questioning this more and more as time went on, as I wasn't really satisfied with that conclusion. Instead of obeying the rules and learning slowly that way, I acted a rebellious nature to find out what's hidden in the dark for me, to receive more knowledge of the dark arts of making a game. I found lots, and I mean LOTS of things, for the price of my happiness, sanity, etc. Seeking my own justice, I realized that it's really hecking hard to stand your own ground. But nonetheless, I still am standing my ground today. The first couple of months beating myself over my own mistakes were hard, but once I slowly started realizing that, perhaps, someone else is out there also struggling for themselves are trying to survive their own pain bringing brain like myself. I realized that I didn't wanted to A: disappoint them, because I wanna show that you can INDEED manage to pull through yourself if you are willing your power into existence and B: disappoint myself, as that would ultimately become my downfall, because nobody else but me can support me (in that time). As a young lad, I always wanted to become a hero, someone you can look up to, but eventually realized a year back that it just can't be done. You CANNOT make everyone happy, it's impossible. At that point my fantasy and reality fought each other bringing my mentality to the ground. And then, it hit me... what if, as cliche as it sounds, would the two just combine together? "Genius!" I thought to myself, except I didn't actually think that, because it was a really serious moment where there was no comedy involved. Obviously with that mindset of "bringing them together" the reality side of things didn't wanted that, because it is a ridiculous fairy tale mindset, but once you realize that you can combine both to form fiction into reality, it blew my mind and then I truly said "Genius!". It was never about Light and Dark, it was never about good and bad, it was never about depression or happiness... It was about accepting both sides and bringing them together, regardless of the fact that the negative things boil your inner rage and void. For that... there was always the positivity bringing you back to the middle, to the whole/half (I dunno). Sure, this Ying-Yang crap sounds entitled as all hell, but... do you really have to care about what I say? Do you really have to just put your own mayonnaise on top of my already existing mayonnaise? I'm not saying you can't... in fact, you can. But now imagine doing that in reality with actual mayonnaise on some other strangers bread that he already had mayonnaise on. Pretty sure it's far-fetched, but at the end of the day, you kinda just blame yourself for making these mistakes, even if you say you don't. Which, in the end, I did... I did A LOT. Like me, or like me not. I like myself enough to ignore your... eh... dislike. Is this a public apology? Is this a justification? Maybe... I don't know... I just wrote this, because I felt like it and I didn't think of any drama, except I did when writing further in because I remembered I had beef not only here, but also in various other places. I am still me and you are still you... do with that information as you please, because I know you don't want me to tell you that I am right and you should listen. Yeah... I know, very entitled. But I like myself for it, honestly. ALL I'M SAYING IS... Thank you for making me the person I am today. I may have listed the absolute worst scenarios, but these are the scenarios that helped me grow the most and regardless of them being negative, I still am obligated to thank those that changed my mind and made me realize my place in life. Thanks to all my friends I have made over the 5 years I'm in this RPG maker community. And everyone knowing me, regardless (that's the word of the day) of my beef with you, I STILL consider you a friend... and you know who you are... you... eh... 20 people? lol (yeah, I was a bad boy) Anyway, enough with this cringey depression/selfreflection talk: How about a contest? I was thinking of making a contest based around decision making and multiple path options. Thought that was a cool idea. Obviously like a very short game and I thought it might help out people getting into multiple paths or something. PS: I guess this topic is about how you felt over the years on this community + contest stuff lmao PPS: I know, I still suck at english PPPS: @Loriesquare shoutout to the special snowflake I mentioned here and am still friends with. (Miss you bud)

I had made this Gargoyle enemy that I based off the Gargoyle enemy from MV. I thought about animating all my enemies, but then realized I had to animate huge, big, MASSIVE Monsters too, so I kinda threw it out the window (Except I said to myself I'll be doing it anyway, if I reach 1000 bucks + on patreon each month to get myself motivated to do it, which will never happen.) Still like the animation, though. 6 frames of different wing-a-dings. Some more funky, considered finished frames:

Games made with RM are 'automatically bad'
ShinNessTen replied to Semolous's topic in Theory and Development
I didn't even know you had a game, because that's literally the first Time I replied to you... if that makes you feel any better. RTP or not. A game can be bad in so many different ways and also good in so many different ways. Fact is, the Eye is before the Brain and people that glance over Games will miss out on great story telling Games with RTP, because... the Eye is just a priority to most. It's the unfortunate truth. I'm also not trying to tell you to get good at Art or something. A Game is made out of so many Elements, like the Gameplay, Art Direction, Music and nowadays even Story telling. I can actually get behind why People hate Games that don't take the time to develop the rest of the package, like let's say Art or Music because a game is made out of all these criterias. Games are just meant to be so many things and not only just a few of those. But that's just my Opinion and many others as well... it's just some can't say it like I do and just write "Shit Game". Not everyone can/has the time to write why, because making a Game is complex. And I 100% agree that people should just shut up if they don't tell what's wrong... or just being dicks. Bad stuff is easily louder than the good. If you look at the Universe, you see everything is black. But that's me just philosophizing. lol

A person isn't born with determination and self-esteem. Everything has to be taught by either teaching and sometimes and straight up showing the truth. If you sugarcoat this whole thing, imagine someone who's never been told to about anything in his life get's a Job and suddenly he's getting anxiety and isn't prepared for it. The thing is, it's a better world for him/her... and it's not for us. There are people that set standards high because the hard work and development of ones person only proves that we can evolve and become better by getting punched in the face by reality. Of course, it's selfish of us to expect great things, but if nobody ever said anything bad, we wouldn't even have great Games to begin with. And just because somebody is underage, doesn't mean they can't learn from it. Heck, it's maybe even better if they learn it as soon as possible. That's literally the same argument as "VIDEOGAMES ARE BAD FOR OUR CHILDREN, BECAUSE THEY ENFORCE VIOLENCE!", which is just dumb.

The Reimagining
ShinNessTen posted a blog entry in You walked into Shin's Room
*reads last blog entry oh my... that's a lot. Anyway, I'll keep it short this time. I'll be recreating all 3 of my not-so-great-hits TOD the Grim Reaper, TOD the Grim Reaper 2 and TOD the Grim Reaper 3 into actually fully developed big Projects. I'll aim for the first Game to come out this year, if my Composer is fast enough. I had the same things in mind for the first 2 Games: -They are (still) going to be liniar -Because of the liniarity, I made up for it in some unique and twisted ways. I.e. You can miss your Party Members, but they will still join you regardless later on. You can miss out on great Treasures that will make it easier for you to go from area to area. Areas change dramatically after the Boss is defeated and opens up new paths for some other secrets. -Literally had 7 modes (of which 3 are basically just copy pasted) in mind for additional Challenges once you beat the Game, since they are so short and mind as well. In addition to Normal and Hard mode, the new modes are going to be - Lvl 1 (Normal) - Lvl 1 (Hard) - Time Attack (Normal) aka. Speedrun this under 1 hour - Time Attack (Hard) aka. Speedrun this under 45 minutes - Lvl 1 Time Attack (Normal) aka. Speedrun this under 45 minutes on Lvl. 1 - Lvl 1 Time Attack (Hard) aka. Speedrun this under 30 minutes on lvl. 1 - Ultimate Mode All are pretty self explanatory, except for Ultimate which I won't spoil the surprise for. (Which is probably the only thing I won't spoil from the Games) Since TOD 3 is another thing entirely, It won't have these fancy things at all, since it's multiple path based and this could just be an enourmous amounts of work, considering I'm planning to make sometihng even better than all these modes combined. But yeah, TOD 3 is basically just going to be another choose your own adventure with twists and turns and yadda. And it's also going to be the regular formula of "There's towns in this game you can chill out in!". ^^^^^^^^ if this is my definition of "I'll keep it short", then I will be hopeless in the future...

RPG with no levelling / stat growth?
ShinNessTen replied to Ninjamida's topic in Theory and Development
If I could, I would want to rid every Game that has a Level system and replace it with abilities like Kingdom Hearts (2 specifically). The idea to toy around with different strategies is something I grew fond of since I played some Platformers (that aren't mario). Since I tackled the Mega Man series, Games that revolve around you growing stronger by defeating the Stage and Boss, I realized that you really don't need anything too drastic to make your Game something special. Kingdom Hearts 2 can be beaten on the highest difficulty on level 1... that's something incredibly mind breaking once you know about it. I remember when I heard you could actually do that and I couldn't believe it, since I had trouble as a kid on normal on some bosses. Here's the thing. My advice would be definitely to keep the Level system, for those who just want to... well... naturally get stronger and just grind for themselves to make fights easier for themselves. I think the level system in RPGs just prevents you from getting mauled by some random boss with an AoE attack, since you can't really dodge in a static menu screen lol. It's for those who don't get the idea of the boss and just want to beat it casually, as opposed to beating it with strategy. And I know some people say they don't like easy things in games, to that I say it's not true. It's either they are too easy or it's too frustratingly hard. So options to have both available is always handy. Designing a Boss around a level system is always tricky (for me at least). Since the growth might be always different from others. I like to give the boss the ability to kill every possible scenario with some sort of counterattacks and defensive strategies.

Truck accidents can put victims in a difficult position. Not only are you probably dealing with a serious injury and massive property damage, but you're also not just up against another motorist. Instead, your road to compensation for your losses often goes through the trucking company - and they won't give up without a fight. Trucking companies have several key advantages that they can use to deny accident victims the compensation they deserve.
One key advantage enjoyed by the trucking company is that they control much of the evidence that will determine the outcome of your case. That's why you need to contact Dean Waite & Associates, LLC immediately after a truck accident. Truck accident attorney Dean Waite and his legal team know how to investigate trucking companies and secure that critical evidence.
"Black box" data - In many commercial trucks, the "black box" contains GPS data that can tell us the truck's speed and direction of travel at the time of the wreck. The information in the black box may also tell us whether other records were falsified - for instance, the truck's log may claim that the driver took a rest break prior to the accident while the GPS data indicates that the truck was moving at that time. Because this information is the trucking company's property, we need to move quickly to secure it.
Hours of service (HOS) log - By federal law, truckers are required to follow strict hours-of-service regulations that say they can only work a certain number of hours before taking mandatory rest breaks. The trucking company is required to keep logs of this information, but they only need to preserve those logs for a limited amount of time unless an attorney intervenes. When you retain a truck accident lawyer from our firm, we'll immediately contact the trucking company and make sure they do not destroy the log.
Hiring and supervision records - Trucking companies are required by law to hire drivers who are licensed, qualified and safe. In too many cases, however, they cut corners in the hiring process and put others at risk. Our investigation will include a review of the trucking company's records to see if they failed to conduct a background check or knowingly hired a driver with a history of drunk or reckless driving; this may lead to a claim for negligent hiring. Likewise, we may have a negligent retention claim if the company learned that the truck driver had a history of unsafe driving, yet kept the driver behind the wheel.
Maintenance records - An inadequately maintained truck is a danger to its driver and everyone else on the road. Our investigation may reveal that the trucking company knew of issues with the engine, brakes or other safety-critical components of the truck, yet failed to repair them. Or we may find that the truck was repaired but the mechanic did an inadequate job, which may lead to a claim of negligence against the repair company.
Witness testimony - In many cases, the most important evidence of all comes from people's accounts of what happened. Witnesses aren't necessarily people who saw the wreck itself. Someone who saw the truck driver before the crash may testify that he appeared drunk or fatigued, for example. And sometimes, the key is in the driver's own statements. For instance, if the truck driver appears to not remember the crash, he or she may have been asleep at the wheel.
Remember, injury claims are decided by evidence. That's why we leave no stone unturned in pursuit of all the information we need to build a winning case for our clients. And that's why it's so important that you contact us right away, so we can start our investigation while the evidence is still fresh. Don't hesitate... Call Dean Waite!
If you or a loved one has been hurt in a truck accident in Mobile or elsewhere in Alabama, make the right call. Get an experienced truck accident lawyer on your side. Call (866) 434-5840 to schedule your free case evaluation.

Enid Dorothy Crystal Marx was born in London on 20th October 1902. She first went to school in Hampstead, then at the age of 12 she boarded at Roedean in West Sussex where she benefited from an excellent art teacher. In 1921 she entered the Central School of Arts & Crafts to study drawing, pottery and printed textile design. After a year she went to the Royal College of Art (RCA), where she studied under Paul Nash, among others, with fellow students, and future RDIs (Royal Designer for Industry), Edward Bawden and Barnett Freedman. The assessor failed her diploma piece as being too abstract but sixty years later the RCA appointed Marx an Honorary Fellow in 1982 and Senior Fellow in 1987.
Gallimaufry, the College magazine, included Marx in its 'Hall of Fame' for 1925 because 'among all the misses who flirt with Art, she alone woos it seriously'. Nash recognized her originality as a pattern maker and he encouraged her to become an early member of the Society of Wood Engravers and the Society of Artists.
Marx spent a year in the studio of Phyllis Barron and Dorothy Larcher as their apprentice. She learned how to mix dyes and the craft of hand-block printing on textiles. In 1926 she set up her own studio printing her usually abstract and geometric designs on various materials. These soon became extremely fashionable and sought-after. A reviewer of the 1928 Arts & Crafts Exhibition Society's exhibition, for the RSA Journal, said that 'Enid Marx is an able designer; her printed linen…might be taken as a good example of a good collection'. Two years later a review of her first one-women show at the Little Gallery elicited an appreciation of her designs, 'somehow she manages to combine forms that are essentially in the modern spirit with large harmonies that have the most agreeable traditional suavity'.
Just a small selection of the repeat patterns that Enid created.
Marx showed her work at many exhibitions including Zwemmer's 'Room and Book' and 'Artists of Today' shows, as well as the 1935 Paris Expo. Christian Barman RDI of London Transport commissioned Marx to design seating fabrics for their trains and buses (1935). They formed a mutual admiration society, Barman praised her work and Marx wrote his obituary for Design magazine (1980). Other commissions included lining fabrics for luggage designed by John Waterer RDI.
During the Second World War Marx was one of the artists invited by Sir Kenneth Clark to participate in his 'Recording Britain' scheme to record the country's natural beauty and architectural heritage under threat from German bombing and other destructive forces. To her surprise her children's book, Bulgy the Barrage Balloon, was an instant success. As well as writing and illustrating several more books Marx also produced little chapbooks, printed on off-cuts to amuse the young during air raids.
The invitation to design commemorative stamps for the Queen's Coronation in 1953 provided Marx with the opportunity to work in a different medium. 'Our stamps', she said, 'are, or should be regarded as, our Queen and country's visiting card'. Marx described working on the stamps as one of her greatest pleasures. She received a further commission from the Post Office to design the Christmas stamps for 1976, her designs for these were taken from the 'Opus Anglicanum' embroideries.
A small, dark determined woman of considerable stamina Marx campaigned ceaselessly for the continuation of the direct, unaffected, but human design values that her generation had established before the war. Enid Marx died in London, at the age of 95, on 18th May 1998.
Many thanks to the University of Brighton Design Archives for the information for this post.
Wow! That was a feast for the eyes! I had never heard of Enid before -so thanks for revealing the hidden treasures of her work. I especially love her woodcuts of birds and animals – the owl with the blue background is divine. I did a semester of copper plate engraving and printing when I studied visual arts at uni, finishing my degree last year. But Enid's delightful work makes me wish they had taught woodblock carving and printing as well. Copper just doesn't give the same effect. Such emphatic line work with wood. Sadly, it seems to be a dying art – at least in Australian art schools.
Thanks Deidre, perhaps you should have a go yourself. I know that some contemporary artists in the UK, like Angie Lewin, still carve blocks from wood in order to get beautiful prints. Let us know how you get on if you decide to try it.
That's a great post you've put together. Thanks 🙂 Seems to be a lot of interest in Marx just now. I'd love to see the exhibition at the house of illustration but too far away for me.


1. The Wisconsin Historical Markers project is my hobby. It is a repository for photographs and information regarding Wisconsin's historical markers and sites, museums, veterans memorials, whimsical roadside attractions, Smokey the Bear signs, vintage hamburger joints, and anything else that I deem to be interesting.
2. I have personally visited and photographed every location (nearly 7,000) documented on my website. I have invested all my own funds (about $30,000 to date) in the project. I have not been paid any money for my project.
3. I am not affiliated with the Wisconsin Historical Society or any local historical society.
4. Everything I know about the each post is listed on the post. If is it not listed on the post I do not have any further information. If you want further information on the post, you will need to do your own research. I suggest starting first with the local / county historical society by using Google to locate them.
5. I do not have any further knowledge about the veterans memorials (who, what, when, where, if, how, etc.) on my website, other than what is linked on the post. If you want more information about a veterans memorial or adding a name to the veterans memorial or adding a brick to the veterans memorial, you will need to contact the entity that erected the memorial or the town / city / village where the memorial has been erected.
6. I do not provide research services for free. If you wish me to do further research regarding any post on my site, I charge $50 per hour for research, with a one hour minimum, paid in advance. That said, if you can't find it on a Google search, I probably won't be able to either, which means that, unless you want to hire me, it's up to you to conduct the more extensive research that is needed.

This is the Spring season of a series of 4 painting of Durdle Door. Each picture contains text relevant to the season depicted, inspired by old sayings and poems. The original was painted and drawn in ink.


Let's go back to a time before last night's depressing loss to Wolves, to a magical world called Sunday where we'd beaten Fulham 2-0 at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea TV were on hand to film some great behind the scenes action from the tunnel, including the great scenes of the crowd celebrating two pleasant derby goals.
There was even a chance for Ruben Loftus-Cheek to talk to his adoring fans after his goal.
Let's just pretend last night never happened eh?

Q: C++ Strange memcpy behaviour For a CTF I'm trying to build a WinSock application vulnerable to a simple buffer overflow, however I came across a, for me at least, very strange behaviour of memcpy. All security measures in visual studio have been disabled.
char recvbuf[1024];
char sendbuf[300];
int recvbuflen=1024;
iResult = recv(ClientSocket, recvbuf, recvbuflen, 0);
memcpy(sendbuf, recvbuf, recvbuflen);
if (iResult > 0) {
    printf("Bytes received: %d\n", iResult);

    // Echo the buffer back to the sender
    iSendResult = send(ClientSocket, sendbuf,sizeof(sendbuf) , 0);

    .........

As you can see from above code snippet, this is a very simple application that just replies with the bytes received. Now I have two questions concerning memcpy's behavior:

*

*Why does this not trigger a buffer overflow? It looks to me I'm trying to copy a buffer that is 1024 chars long to a buffer that is 300 chars long. When trying the same using a char*, it does trigger a buffer overflow.

*iSendResult = send(ClientSocket, sendbuf,sizeof(sendbuf) , 0);
When I change the size to iResult (this are the total of received bytes) the application does correctly answer with all the chars received, yet I have selected sendbuf to be sent which is only 300 chars long, where does he get the remaining characters from (some sort of temp buffer?)
So these are two behaviors I'm not sure how to explain.
It would be great if somebody could somebody shed some light onto this.
Best regards!

A: You are overflowing the buffer.  What do you expect to happen?  A buffer overflow is a case of undefined behavior.  In a very simple program such as this, undefined behavior has a habit of working fine.  That is what makes undefined behavior so insidious.
When your program is run, it writes 300 bytes to sendbuf and the remaining bytes to whatever follows sendbuf in memory.  My guess is that recvbuflen contains bytes 300 through 304.  If you add a new variable char unused[1024] = {0} after sendbuf you might be able to see where the bytes are being written to by examining it's contents after the memcpy.

The ballot of submission shall be in substantially the following form:
Shall the ______ (name of district) impose a sales tax of one-fourth of one percent to fund the acquisition, construction, maintenance, operation, improvement, and promotion of an exhibition center and recreational facilities, for a period of ______ (insert number of years)?
☐ YES ☐ NO
If you are in favor of the question, place an "X" in the box opposite "YES". If you are opposed to the question, place an "X" in the box opposite "NO".
If a majority of the votes cast in the portion of any county that is part of the proposed district favor the proposal, then the sales tax shall become effective in that portion of the county that is part of the proposed district on the first day of the first calendar quarter immediately following the election. If a majority of the votes cast in the portion of a county that is a part of the proposed district oppose the proposal, then that portion of such county shall not impose the sales tax authorized in this section until after the county governing body has submitted another such sales tax proposal and the proposal is approved by a majority of the qualified voters voting thereon. However, if a sales tax proposal is not approved, the governing body of the county shall not resubmit a proposal to the voters pursuant to this section sooner than twelve months from the date of the last proposal submitted pursuant to this section. If the qualified voters in two or more counties that have contiguous districts approve the sales tax proposal, the districts shall combine to become one district.
8. There is hereby created a board of trustees to administer any district created and the expenditure of revenue generated pursuant to this section consisting of four individuals to represent each county approving the district, as provided in this subsection. The governing body of each county located within the district, upon approval of that county's sales tax proposal, shall appoint four members to the board of trustees; at least one shall be an owner of a nonlodging business located within the taxing district, or their designee, at least one shall be an owner of a lodging facility located within the district, or their designee, and all members shall reside in the district except that one nonlodging business owner, or their designee, and one lodging facility owner, or their designee, may reside outside the district. Each trustee shall be at least twenty-five years of age and a resident of this state. Of the initial trustees appointed from each county, two shall hold office for two years, and two shall hold office for four years. Trustees appointed after expiration of the initial terms shall be appointed to a four-year term by the governing body of the county the trustee represents, with the initially appointed trustee to remain in office until a successor is appointed, and shall take office upon being appointed. Each trustee may be reappointed. Vacancies shall be filled in the same manner in which the trustee vacating the office was originally appointed. The trustees shall not receive compensation for their services, but may be reimbursed for their actual and necessary expenses. The board shall elect a chair and other officers necessary for its membership. Trustees may be removed if:
(1) By a two-thirds vote, the board moves for the member's removal and submits such motion to the governing body of the county from which the trustee was appointed; and
(2) The governing body of the county from which the trustee was appointed, by a majority vote, adopts the motion for removal.
9. The board of trustees shall have the following powers, authority, and privileges:
(1) To have and use a corporate seal;
(2) To sue and be sued, and be a party to suits, actions, and proceedings;
(3) To enter into contracts, franchises, and agreements with any person or entity, public or private, affecting the affairs of the district, including contracts with any municipality, district, or state, or the United States, and any of their agencies, political subdivisions, or instrumentalities, for the funding, including without limitation interest rate exchange or swap agreements, planning, development, construction, acquisition, maintenance, or operation of a single exhibition center and recreational facilities or to assist in such activity. "Recreational facilities" means locations explicitly designated for public use where the primary use of the facility involves participation in hobbies or athletic activities;
(4) To borrow money and incur indebtedness and evidence the same by certificates, notes, or debentures, to issue bonds and use any one or more lawful funding methods the district may obtain for its purposes at such rates of interest as the district may determine. Any bonds, notes, and other obligations issued or delivered by the district may be secured by mortgage, pledge, or deed of trust of any or all of the property and income of the district. Every issue of such bonds, notes, or other obligations shall be payable out of property and revenues of the district and may be further secured by other property of the district, which may be pledged, assigned, mortgaged, or a security interest granted for such payment, without preference or priority of the first bonds issued, subject to any agreement with the holders of any other bonds pledging any specified property or revenues. Such bonds, notes, or other obligations shall be authorized by resolution of the district board, and shall bear such date or dates, and shall mature at such time or times, but not in excess of thirty years, as the resolution shall specify. Such bonds, notes, or other obligations shall be in such denomination, bear interest at such rate or rates, be in such form, either coupon or registered, be issued as current interest bonds, compound interest bonds, variable rate bonds, convertible bonds, or zero coupon bonds, be issued in such manner, be payable in such place or places, and be subject to redemption as such resolution may provide, notwithstanding section 108.170. The bonds, notes, or other obligations may be sold at either public or private sale, at such interest rates, and at such price or prices as the district shall determine;
(5) To acquire, transfer, donate, lease, exchange, mortgage, and encumber real and personal property in furtherance of district purposes;
(6) To refund any bonds, notes, or other obligations of the district without an election. The terms and conditions of refunding obligations shall be substantially the same as those of the original issue, and the board shall provide for the payment of interest at not to exceed the legal rate, and the principal of such refunding obligations in the same manner as is provided for the payment of interest and principal of obligations refunded;
(7) To have the management, control, and supervision of all the business and affairs of the district, and the construction, installation, operation, and maintenance of district improvements therein; to collect rentals, fees, and other charges in connection with its services or for the use of any of its facilities;
(8) To hire and retain agents, employees, engineers, and attorneys;
(9) To receive and accept by bequest, gift, or donation any kind of property;
(10) To adopt and amend bylaws and any other rules and regulations not in conflict with the constitution and laws of this state, necessary for the carrying on of the business, objects, and affairs of the board and of the district; and
(11) To have and exercise all rights and powers necessary or incidental to or implied from the specific powers granted by this section.
10. There is hereby created the "Exhibition Center and Recreational Facility District Sales Tax Trust Fund", which shall consist of all sales tax revenue collected pursuant to this section. The director of revenue shall be custodian of the trust fund, and moneys in the trust fund shall be used solely for the purposes authorized in this section. Moneys in the trust fund shall be considered nonstate funds pursuant to Section 15, Article IV, Constitution of Missouri. The director of revenue shall invest moneys in the trust fund in the same manner as other funds are invested. Any interest and moneys earned on such investments shall be credited to the trust fund. All sales taxes collected by the director of revenue pursuant to this section on behalf of the district, less one percent for the cost of collection which shall be deposited in the state's general revenue fund after payment of premiums for surety bonds as provided in section 32.087, shall be deposited in the trust fund. The director of revenue shall keep accurate records of the amount of moneys in the trust fund which was collected in the district imposing a sales tax pursuant to this section, and the records shall be open to the inspection of the officers of each district and the general public. Not later than the tenth day of each month, the director of revenue shall distribute all moneys deposited in the trust fund during the preceding month to the district. The director of revenue may authorize refunds from the amounts in the trust fund and credited to the district for erroneous payments and overpayments made, and may redeem dishonored checks and drafts deposited to the credit of the district.
11. The sales tax authorized by this section is in addition to all other sales taxes allowed by law. Except as modified in this section, all provisions of sections 32.085 and 32.087 apply to the sales tax imposed pursuant to this section.
12. Any sales tax imposed pursuant to this section shall not extend past the initial term approved by the voters unless an extension of the sales tax is submitted to and approved by the qualified voters in each county in the manner provided in this section. Each extension of the sales tax shall be for a period not to exceed twenty years. The ballot of submission for the extension shall be in substantially the following form:
Shall the ______ (name of district) extend the sales tax of one-fourth of one percent for a period of ______ (insert number of years) years to fund the acquisition, construction, maintenance, operation, improvement, and promotion of an exhibition center and recreational facilities?
If a majority of the votes cast favor the extension, then the sales tax shall remain in effect at the rate and for the time period approved by the voters. If a sales tax extension is not approved, the district may submit another sales tax proposal as authorized in this section, but the district shall not submit such a proposal to the voters sooner than twelve months from the date of the last extension submitted.
13. Once the sales tax authorized by this section is abolished or terminated by any means, all funds remaining in the trust fund shall be used solely for the purposes approved in the ballot question authorizing the sales tax. The sales tax shall not be abolished or terminated while the district has any financing or other obligations outstanding; provided that any new financing, debt, or other obligation or any restructuring or refinancing of an existing debt or obligation incurred more than ten years after voter approval of the sales tax provided in this section or more than ten years after any voter-approved extension thereof shall not cause the extension of the sales tax provided in this section or cause the final maturity of any financing or other obligations outstanding to be extended. Any funds in the trust fund which are not needed for current expenditures may be invested by the district in the securities described in subdivisions (1) to (12) of subsection 1 of section 30.270 or repurchase agreements secured by such securities. If the district abolishes the sales tax, the district shall notify the director of revenue of the action at least ninety days before the effective date of the repeal, and the director of revenue may order retention in the trust fund, for a period of one year, of two percent of the amount collected after receipt of such notice to cover possible refunds or overpayment of the sales tax and to redeem dishonored checks and drafts deposited to the credit of such accounts. After one year has elapsed after the effective date of abolition of the sales tax in the district, the director of revenue shall remit the balance in the account to the district and close the account of the district. The director of revenue shall notify the district of each instance of any amount refunded or any check redeemed from receipts due the district.
14. In the event that the district is dissolved or terminated by any means, the governing bodies of the counties in the district shall appoint a person to act as trustee for the district so dissolved or terminated. Before beginning the discharge of duties, the trustee shall take and subscribe an oath to faithfully discharge the duties of the office, and shall give bond with sufficient security, approved by the governing bodies of the counties, to the use of the dissolved or terminated district, for the faithful discharge of duties. The trustee shall have and exercise all powers necessary to liquidate the district, and upon satisfaction of all remaining obligations of the district, shall pay over to the county treasurer of each county in the district and take receipt for all remaining moneys in amounts based on the ratio the levy of each county bears to the total levy for the district in the previous three years or since the establishment of the district, whichever time period is shorter. Upon payment to the county treasurers, the trustee shall deliver to the clerk of the governing body of any county in the district all books, papers, records, and deeds belonging to the dissolved district.

Income inequality is a concern around the world. Experts and policy makers from both the right and the left vigorously debate what, if anything, to do about it. Economist Thomas Piketty offered a big-picture analysis of the issue in his best-selling Capital in the Twenty-First Century, in which he found that wealth begets greater wealth, worsening inequality. Economist Carlos Góes attempts to tease out the validity of Piketty's thesis and arrives at a different conclusion. getAbstract recommends his innovative but esoteric effort to ground Piketty's historical observations in contemporary data.
What other causes might explain income inequality.

This post is brought to you by Guardian Storage and The Motherhood. All opinions are my own.
Do you find yourself dreading a home remodel? There are so many things to consider and one of them may be, "Where am I going to put everything?". There is a very simple solution that will take your sense of overwhelm down several notches and make the entire situation much more pleasant!
My home is in need of a lot of upgrades but one of the biggest setbacks (other than money) is where am I going to put everything so that it's not in the way and there's a clear path to success. When I have clutter I feel my productivity go right down the drain.
See this clutter? This is my downstairs family room. No one goes down there….I wonder why????
Even if you're doing something as small as painting you need to move furniture and everything (big ole bookcases and entertainment centers) away from the walls. Moving it into the middle of the room is not always the best option. My house is small, very small, and there is NO extra space, none, so even moving things into another room doesn't work.
Rather than just giving up and leaving your house stuck in a bygone era there is an option that is convenient, safe, and affordable.
I'll bet you didn't think of that, now did you? Trust me, I'm not pointing my finger at you, I never did either. I thought of storage only for storing things you didn't have room for or as a sort of holding area while you were moving. My, oh, my, was I wrong.
Besides using Guardian Storage to keep you organized while remodeling you can use it to store holiday decor, furniture you want to pass down to your kids, to hold your college student's dorm room stuff (now, that's a brilliant use, isn't it?), to store valuable antiques, or to hold furniture while you're staging your house to sell, plus a TON of other uses. I didn't even think of most of these until I visited my local Guardian Storage (find a location near you here). While I was there I talked to Suzanne, the manager, and she told me so many wonderful stories about outside-of-the-box uses for storage lockers plus, she was so nice! One thing she said that really stuck out to me was that when people were placing their belongings in storage, they were trusting a part of them and their life to Guardian Storage and they (the folks at Guardian Storage) took that very seriously. I just loved that! Talk about personal attention.
First, assess what needs to be done then assess what you can live without during the remodel. If you're remodeling the kitchen consider what dishes, appliances, pots, pans, utensils, etc. are not going to be necessary for day-to-day living.
Once you've assessed that, stop by your local Guardian Storage and get a free onsite consultation where the experts will help you determine exactly what size unit you need. Next, pack up everything else. Keep a list, though, so you're not wondering where your forks went!
If you'll be remodeling your living room, I suggest moving EVERYTHING out of that room and into storage. One of my concerns was the added cost of renting a truck and getting everything to the storage facility, but if you use Guardian Storage, they offer a free moving truck for the day!
Once your area is free and clear you can begin to act on your dreams and visions and that is pretty wonderful!
Guardian Storage has modern clean (we all know how important clean is) facilities with state-of-the-art security systems. As I was being shown around the property by Suzanne in this cute little golf cart I asked about access codes and there isn't one standard one. Codes are unique to the user.
The newest building at the Warrendale location is three stories tall and offers climate controlled lockers as well as outdoor lockers.
There are covered loading docks so you don't need to worry about the weather. Winter, spring, summer, or fall you're items aren't going to get wet.
This is the elevator in the three-story building….big enough to handle almost anything you could want to move.
And here is an example of one of the climate-controlled storage units….big, clean, and ready to hold your precious possessions.
They even have an onsite conference room with free Wi-Fi.
I literally could have moved right in and had just about everything I could possibly need but thankfully, I decided to head home and plan out a few home remodels!
One more thing. Before you bring everything back into your home, make sure the items are ones you love. If you were able to live without it during the remodel and didn't miss it, it may be time to rethink the item. Staying organized after the remodel is important, too.

I am having a problem trying to differentiate between examine and look as they both do the same job.
i.e. i can [examine] a drawer and i can [look] at a drawer and in both cases the screen will show the definition of that drawer. (e.g. it is made of wood).
I have a task to look inside the drawer; however If i go to [look] IN the drawer i get the same result as above. The same applies if i go to [look] ON an object.
It would appear that the system is looking at the 'look', deciding it means 'examine' and takes no notice of the IN/ON in the task. I have tried using [*in*drawer] to no effect. I do not have a synonym for examine/look.
Totally confused and cannot see what i am doing wrong. Please help.
Did you make your task repeatable? The above should work, as far as I can tell. You could always post an example if you can't get it to work.
I'm sure we will get there one day Campbell.

Altgeld Hall and Still Hall along College Avenue. Altgeld Hall was the first building to be constructed on campus.
Northern Illinois University was founded as part of the expansion of the normal school program established in 1857 in Normal, Illinois. In 1895, the state legislature created a Board of Trustees for the governance of the Northern Illinois State Normal School, which would grow into what is today known as NIU.
In July 1917, the Illinois Senate consolidated the boards of trustees for the five state normal schools (Eastern Illinois State Normal School, Illinois State Normal School, Northern Illinois State Normal School, Southern Illinois State Normal University, and Western Illinois State Normal School) into one state Normal School Board.
Over the next fifty-eight years, the school and the governing board changed their names several times. In 1921, the legislature gave the institution the name Northern Illinois State Teachers College and empowered it to award the four-year Bachelor of Education degree. In 1941, the Normal School Board changed its name to the Teachers College Board. In 1951 the Teachers College Board authorized the college to grant the degree Master of Science in Education, and the institution's Graduate School was established. On July 1, 1955, the state legislature renamed the college Northern Illinois State College and authorized the college to broaden its educational services by offering academic work in areas other than teacher education. The Teachers College Board granted permission for the college to add curricula leading to the degrees Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science. On July 1, 1957, the Seventieth General Assembly renamed Northern Illinois State College as Northern Illinois University in recognition of its expanded status as a liberal arts university.
In 1965, the Illinois State Teachers College Board became the Board of Governors of State Colleges and Universities and was reorganized to include Northeastern University, Governor's State, and Chicago State Universities. In 1967 authority for Northern Illinois University, Illinois State University, and Sangamon State University were passed on to a newly formed Board of Regents. In 1984, the Board of Regents created the position of Chancellor for the three regent universities, to act as a chief executive for all three schools; the first person appointed chancellor was then-NIU President William R. Monat. The Board of Regents and the Chancellor governed the three Regency universities until the end of 1995. On January 1, 1996, authority for each of the three regency universities was transferred to three independent Boards of Trustees, each concerned solely with one university.[4]
On February 14, 2008, the university drew international attention when a gunman opened fire in a crowd of students on campus, killing five students and injuring 17 more people, before fatally shooting himself.

Great magazine die-off
Entertainment Weekly lost a quarter of its staff to layoffs last year, but Time Inc. will continue publishing the magazine, even though it maybe considered axing its print edition. Risky.
Entertainment Weekly Considering Going Online-Only?
We've heard from multiple sources that the idea of going online-only is being seriously…
Sure, the title made $10 million last year, according to Keith Kelly at the Post. And it has new leadership (Kelly reports) in managing editor Jess Cagle, a People and former Time editor who spent 10 years at EW following its launch. (Fortune vet Rick Tetzeli, the former M.E., was kicked upstairs.)
But the magazine's profits are a fifth of the $50 million they recently were. If 2009 plays out as expected, EW could slide into the red on the cost of printing 1.6 million copies each week.
Time Inc. CEO Ann Moore is betting an editorial turnaround will prevent that, as will lower costs, thanks to the loss of 30 of 120 editorial staff and plans to share staff with other publications. But Moore should be ready to pull the plug quickly if the magazine starts losing money. EW never quite made its mark, and Time Inc.'s last round of 600-or-so layoffs was actually not that deep given the magazine group's 10,000 employees.
Let's Reminisce About Entertainment Weekly
Entertainment Weekly published its 1,000th issue earlier this year—and maybe that was enough, since …
If the company has to fire more people, it should not be to sentimentally extend a failed experiment.
