When asked how he manages to be so prolific, he once said (and pardon me if I got the exact words wrong, but it's close)... "I have the heart of a young boy. In a jar on my desk."

Yahoo! Weather's RSS feed has some handy additional data. Useful if you only have a US postal code. Includes things like lat/long coords, separate elements with weather forecasts ad current conditions, sunrise/sunset times...

True, I do see Elise in control warrior decks on lower rungs, but less so in higher ones. Mostly classic stand-by cards, and/or Reno Jackson.

Just that camera, stacking software, and the driest, darkest place on Earth (slight exaggeration) the Atacama Desert. Excellent photo, though. I'd love to visit a site with such dark skies and good seeing.

Sure, there are decks where you must pray to RNGesus that you get the effect you're looking for. Those decks will not get you far up the ladder, however. Nearly every player above Rank 10 is using a predictable deck. Elise/map

From their blog post: > Horizon isn’t prescriptive or particularly opinionated–it’s designed to work well with the JavaScript frameworks that you already know and love. It is seriously a breath of fresh air to read something like that.

That sort of describes the Pandora approach. Each song has a set of "genes" that describe its tone, musical instrumentation, key signature, time signature, rhythmic syncopation, etc. these genes are then used to find similar music
