Here are some things you can do with Gists in GistBox.
select pps.parent_spine_id, pps.name pay_scale, pg1.grade_id, pg1.name grade_name, psp.spinal_point_id, psp.spinal_point, pspsf.step_id
from per_parent_spines pps -- details of payscale
,per_grades pg1 -- grade definitions for a business group
,per_grade_spines_f pgsf -- stores the progression points for each grade scale
,per_spinal_point_steps_f pspsf -- grade steps definied in a specific grade scale and their incremental order
,per_spinal_points psp
where pg1.grade_id = pgsf.grade_id
and pg1.date_to is null
and sysdate between pgsf.effective_start_date and pgsf.effective_end_date
and sysdate between pspsf.effective_start_date and pspsf.effective_end_date
and pps.parent_spine_id = pgsf.parent_spine_id
and pspsf.grade_spine_id = pgsf.grade_spine_id
and pspsf.spinal_point_id = psp.spinal_point_id
and psp.parent_spine_id = pps.parent_spine_id
--and pg1.name = 'UE07'
--and pps.name = 'Unified Pay Range'
order by pps.name , pg1.name, psp.sequence; pspsf.sequence
Use Gists to keep track of any information you'd like to remember later on.
From: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/White-Chocolate-Raspberry-Cheesecake/Detail.aspx

In a medium bowl, mix together cookie crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
In a saucepan, combine raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to boil, and continue boiling 5 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Strain sauce through a mesh strainer to remove seeds.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt white chocolate chips with half-and-half, stirring occasionally until smooth.
In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla and melted white chocolate. Pour half of batter over crust. Spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over batter. Pour remaining cheesecake batter into pan, and again spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over the top. Swirl batter with the tip of a knife to create a marbled effect.
Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. Cool, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 hours before removing from pan. Serve with remaining raspberry sauce.
Create documentation for your projects. Like so:
GistBox Clipper is the companion extension to GistBox, the most beautiful way to organize code snippets. It allows a user to create a GitHub Gist from any page on the web.
