my babe is sick :(

Mom's Version, Chicken Soup

Put the chicken carcass in a big pot, cover with water and bring to a boil. Simmer on med/low heat until the meat falls away from the bones. (probably about an hour) Remove the carcass and any bones, etc. Chop chicken meat as needed to smaller size, return to broth. Add the following:

1 tsp salt, or to taste

Pepper (or not - sensitive stomachs..)

2-3 sliced carrots

1 chopped onion

¾ cup chopped celery

Seasonings (like above, or maybe a little oregano)

Cook for about 30 minutes until vegetables are soft. About 5 minutes before serving, add cooked rice (leftover) or noodles.

? okra ?

? suggestions ?

I just saw it on CNN.com: Does drinking alcohol shrink your brain?

Overall, the more alcohol consumed, the smaller the brain volume, with abstainers having a higher brain volume than former drinkers, light drinkers (1-7 drinks per week), moderate drinkers (8-14 drinks per week), and heavy drinkers (14+ drinks per week). Men were more likely to be heavy drinkers than women. But the link between brain volume and alcohol wasn't as strong in men. For men, only those who were heavy drinkers had a smaller brain volume than those who consumed little or no alcohol.

Stuffed Bell Peppers Recipe

FWTools

this here be the post dedicated to FWTools (working)

here be the syntax for helpful batch files, etc. for FWTools commands:



1. convert geodatabase.mdb to shapefiles

ogr2ogr out_shp c:\warehouses\testgdb.mdb

#out_shp represents folder created containing converted shapefiles, rename accordingly.



2. batch reproject folder of shapefiles

mkdir epsg102645

set prj_params=-s_srs epsg:26910 -t_srs epsg:102645

for %%g in (*.shp) do (
ogr2ogr -f "esri shapefile" %prj_params% epsg102645\%%g %%g
)

#epsg102645 represents folder created containing reprojected shapefiles, rename accordingly | reassign epsg codes accordingly.



3. batch merge folder of shapefiles to one shapefile

mkdir merged
for %%f in (*.shp) do (
if not exist merged\fed_wd_merge.shp (
ogr2ogr -f "esri shapefile" merged\fed_wd_merge.shp %%f) else (
ogr2ogr -f "esri shapefile" -update -append merged\fed_wd_merge.shp %%f -nln fed_wd_merge )
)



4. The gdalwarp command can be used to reproject images. Here we reproject
the WGS84 geographic image to the Mercator projection:

gdalwarp -t_srs '+proj=merc +datum=WGS84' geoworld.tif mercator.tif



5. batch reproject raster w/ cubic resampling to 'output' folder

mkdir output

set prj_params=-s_srs epsg:26910 -t_srs epsg:102645

for %%g in (*.tif) do (
gdalwarp %prj_params% -r cubic %%g output\%%g
)
