I have no clue if this works outside the US, but I know that I prefer it to the Weather Channel's web site for tracking conditions and generally dicking around. It's got a ton of overlays and info, and some pretty interesting tropical storm tracking gizmos.

Have fun. Also useful in winter for tracking snow cover (Skiers/boarders) and checking road conditions...so you don't get killed going to the resort. ]]> Random Nonsense Latzen http://www.themesshall.net/forum/showthread.php/12361-Weather-Watchers Homesick http://www.themesshall.net/forum/showthread.php/12360-Homesick?goto=newpost Fri, 03 Sep 2010 10:15:08 GMT Moving sucks. I watched Benjamin Button tonight and the scene where they're sailing down to the Keys caught me off guard. There was a shuttle launch in the background. Totally inaccurate for a gulf-side viewing, but almost exactly what I saw off my back porch in Merritt Island. Made me we weep, in all honesty. I miss Florida just now. Made me think of what I've called home for the past three years. I'm glad I have you rabble at least.

Valve Promises A Trio Of Surprises This Year

We hang on every word Valve says. When you're the company behind Half-Life, Left 4 Dead and Portal, you earn that kind of attention. Well, in a recent interview, Valve head Gabe Newell said we can expect at least three big surprises in the coming year.

"I can guarantee you people are going to be surprised at stuff we do. That isn't going to stop any time soon. I'm just laughing because... people will be shocked again," Valve boss Gabe Newell told PC Gamer. "We have three pretty big surprises in the next 12 months at least."

I currently work for Raytheon on Satellite systems, but I no longer enjoy working on computers.

I have always wanted to work in the health care field and am seriously considering going back to school to become a nurse. I would try to become a doctor but I'm not smart enough lol.

So today, when I left work I had this e-mail. Now about 4-5 months ago when I was looking for a new job, I applied to be a Special Agent with the FBI. Well that e-mail today said that they would like me to come in and take the Phase 1 test. If I pass that with a high enough score I move to the phase 2 test, and then if I pass that, then I get a conditional offer letter. The FBI then does a drug test, background investigation, and medical exam. I don't think my leg condition would keep me out because as long as I take my medicine I can do pretty much anything physical.

The only thing I'm worried about is the polygraph test they do. I took one a few weeks ago and passed fine, but the one the FBI administers is more in depth and deals with more drug use and illegal activities. I've never done anything illegal, but I have abused my prescription drugs..... so I could be screwed on that one. I haven't really abused them, but I may have taken more pain killers when the first ones didn't work.

I'm not sure which path to go.......so.......thoughts? suggestions? ]]> Random Nonsense Liebgott http://www.themesshall.net/forum/showthread.php/12358-Changing-careers.......

I just started reading it, it's like a dark version of toy story.

Quote:
In this eerie graphic novel, toys come to life to defend their "boy." The said boy lives in Brooklyn in 1944; early in the story the Boogeyman nabs him from his room. His toys, including a lead soldier, a ballerina, an Indian, a piggy bank, a wooden duck, a jack-in-the-box, and a stuffed bear, as well as his puppy, band together to venture into the realm of the Dark to rescue him. There they fight not only the Boogeyman but other toys that have joined forces with evil. Despite the prominent role of playthings, this is not a book for children, at least not young ones. The plot takes some dark turns, and there is a sometimes ugly psychological tension even between allies. The taut, suspenseful story will engross older readers, however. Wilson's lovely sepia artwork infuses the book with an ominous feel and brings the complex emotions of the living toys to the fore.
A WW1 toy soldier leads them into the boogeyman's land to find him and bring him back.
