			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As <a href="http://almostflan.com/2011/12/07/razer-stuff/">promised</a>, here is my UI using the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004AM5RAM/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&#038;tag=almostflancom-20&#038;linkCode=as2&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;creativeASIN=B004AM5RAM">Naga Razer Epic</a>.</p>
<p class="ctr"><a href="http://almostflan.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/WoWScrnShot_123111_022142.jpg" class="fancybox"><img src="http://almostflan.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/WoWScrnShot_123111_022142-300x187.jpg" alt="" title="rogue_ui" width="300" height="187" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-165" /></a></p>
<p>The idea I had incorporating the Naga is pretty simple.  Since I&#8217;m new with the mouse, I felt like I needed a guide to what buttons are available to me.  Those are the &#8220;N&#8221; buttons on the right side of my action bars.  I configured the keybinds using <a href="http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/bartender4">Bartender4</a> and the main framing is <a href="http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/info17749-ElvUI.html">ElvUI</a>.  Those are the main ones.  I&#8217;m using mouseover macros with the Naga buttons so I find it pretty convenient in both arenas and battlegrounds.  Here&#8217;s an example of a macro I use:</p>
<div id="gist-1662343" class="gist">

        <div class="gist-file">
          <div class="gist-data gist-syntax">
              <div class="highlight"><pre><div class='line' id='LC1'>/cast [@mouseover,exists] Shadowstep</div><div class='line' id='LC2'>/cast Shadowstep</div></pre></div>
          </div>

          <div class="gist-meta">
            <a href="https://gist.github.com/raw/1662343/652e96fa5e1561b54050e5defdf54f482d7d8eb0/gistfile1.txt" style="float:right;">view raw</a>
            <a href="https://gist.github.com/1662343#file_gistfile1.txt" style="float:right;margin-right:10px;color:#666">gistfile1.txt</a>
            <a href="https://gist.github.com/1662343">This Gist</a> brought to you by <a href="http://github.com">GitHub</a>.
          </div>
        </div>
</div>

<p>In English, you shadowstep the mouseover if it exists, otherwise just shadowstep your current target.</p>
<p>As far as reviewing the Naga is concerned, I&#8217;d say it&#8217;s an excellent mouse for MMOs.  My reaction times are improved significantly after the expected learning curve period.  I&#8217;m still getting faster with it, though I do have trouble using the bottom 6 buttons (7-12) effectively.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I saw this comment on <a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/">HN</a> which sums up SOPA pretty well.</p>
<p style="font-size: 20px">&#8220;If someone shoplifts in your store, this bill allows the government to shut down your store.&#8221;</p>
<p>The analogy could use a few tweaks, but it&#8217;s essentially the idea of the bill.  I think it&#8217;s pretty important for the opponents of the bill to reduce the number of words used to describe SOPA so that people understand what the outcry is about.  It&#8217;s too easy for SOPA&#8217;s proponents to spin the meaning of this bill to get it passed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I put together a recipe largely based on <a href="http://www.howtocookathanksgivingturkey.com/">this guys turkey</a> for the edible turkey I cooked yesterday.  It&#8217;s posted on <a href="http://recipelabs.com/recipe/93">recipe labs</a>.</p>
<p>That said, here it is again.  And again, I don&#8217;t really have solid amounts.</p>
<ul>
<li>turkey (I used a 6.15lb bird)</li>
<li>salt and pepper</li>
<li>butter</li>
<li>rosemary</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li>Defrost the turkey (I just left it out).</li>
<li>Preheat the oven to 475 degrees.</li>
<li>Melt the butter (I used the microwave).</li>
<li>Put the melted butter between the skin and meat of the turkey. This will take some work probably and you should be fast with the butter since it will harden within a few seconds of contact with the turkey.</li>
<li>Rosemary goes between the skin and meat as well.</li>
<li>Season the skin with the salt and pepper. I was pretty liberal in my application.

</li>
<li>Put the turkey in a covered oven pan (I used an open one with a makeshift foil thing on top of it) and put it in the oven for 20 minutes.

</li>
<li>At 20 minutes, turn down the heat to 250 degrees and set your timer to the following formula, depending on the weight of your turkey: (turkey weight in pounds) * 20 minutes. In my case, it was 6.15*20 = 123 minutes.</li>
<li>After it&#8217;s done, let it sit for at least 20 minutes before eating.</li>

I&#8217;ve been looking for a solution to code posting on <a href="http://wordpress.org">wordpress</a>.  I think I&#8217;ve found it in the form of <a href="https://gist.github.com">Gist</a>, <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/embed-github-gist/">Embed Github Gist</a>, and a <a href="http://jquery.com">jquery</a> addon I just put together called <a href="https://github.com/fathwad/jquery-hoverslide">hoverslide</a>.
</p>
<p>The Gist embed option prints out something like this:</p>

<p>The usage of hoverslide looks something like this:</p>

        </div>
</div>

<p>The styling for gist is pulled from <a href="https://gist.github.com/stylesheets/gist/embed.css">this css</a> which I&#8217;ve included in my header and made small changes to.</p>
