Talk is cheap, but only if you are doing it face to face. Start using a phone (landline or mobile), and you pay. But what about the Internet? Voice over IP (or VoIP) is growing in popularity because there are no charges to pay for the telephony itself. This is true regardless of where you are calling: whether you're calling someone in your own street or someone half way across the world, the call is still free. VoIP simply uses capacity you already have at your disposal when you are online.
Not surprisingly, VoIP is setting both the consumer and business worlds alight at the moment, and causing some concerns for traditional landline providers. If we move to making voice calls over the Internet, where are the landline providers going to make their money?
VoIP is taking off for home users largely thanks to broadband. You don't technically need a broadband connection for the technology to work, but broadband is better than dial-up because of the data throughput speeds and always-on nature of broadband connections.
As broadband becomes more widespread in the home, the potential market for VoIP grows, and the range of products on offer expands. VoIP's core is the Internet and the hardware requirements are minimal. So the range of VoIP enabled hardware is varied. We've already looked at an ADSL router with VoIP support - the Zoom Zoomtel X5v 5566.
But if you already have a router, or are looking for a simple solution, perhaps just making your first foray into VoIP, the new VoIP Cyberphone from Firebox might be more suitable. At £30 it is pretty much an impulse buy, and assuming you are already paying for a broadband connection it's all you need for free Internet telephony.
Well, that's not quite true. You also need some software, and it needs to be the same as that on the computers of the people you want to call. The VoIP software of the moment is Skype. It comes in two versions, one designed for making Internet calls only, and another which will also make low cost calls to landlines around the world. The VoIP Cyberphone comes with the Internet telephony only version of Skype, so you don't need to bother with downloading it.
OK, so much for the background. How well does the kit actually work? I tried it on a laptop computer, the idea being that I'd get Skype access wherever the laptop and Firebox VoIP Cyberphone happened to travel to.
Step one is to install the provided software. There are two elements to this, Skype itself and some code that enables the phone hardware to communicate with it.
The CD auto-runs, so that's good. Thereafter though, things got bad. I hit the install button and a setup icon was dropped onto my desktop. I double clicked this and it refused to run.
Next to the install button is a Help icon so I hit that. The help told me to run a file from the CD but not how to find it. Being a clever-clogs I used My Computer to 'Open' the install CD. Then I double clicked the file, which just copied the non-working setup icon onto my desktop again. Out of desperation I double clicked the Setup icon on the install CD, and, would you believe it, installation began.
I've gone into so much detail about this because causing users to fall at the first hurdle of the installation really is a serious crime. If it weren't for this the Cyberphone would have got 8 points for ease of setup.
Still, after that, the installation went very smoothly indeed.
During the installation I was told there was a new version of Skype available and asked if I wanted that. OK, I thought, why not. Going for the upgrade didn't seem to affect operation of the software that ingratiates the phone and Skype, which is good as that software is very important, as you'll see later on.
Setting up a Skype account is probably the most testing thing you'll do after getting over the first installation hurdle. The trickiest part is probably going to be choosing a name for yourself. Take care as it will be the name people use to call you. Something funny or quirky might do for your friends, but not for Aunt Aggie. A simple "firstname†"lastname†format might be best.
You can provide plenty of information about yourself, including a picture if you want. The information you enter helps people to find you online, and anyone can take a look at your details when they are searching for contacts with which to populate their own lists. Personally, I keep my Skype information absolutely minimal.

Rudolf Carnap's 1930s philosophy of logic, including his adherence to the principle of tolerance, is discussed. What theses did Carnap commit himself to, exactly? I argue that while Carnap did commit himself to a certain multitude thesis—there are different logics of different languages, and the choice between these languages is merely a matter of expediency—there is no evidence that he rejected a language-transcendent notion of fact, contrary to what Warren Goldfarb and Thomas Ricketts have prominently argued. (In fact, it is obscure just what Goldfarb and Ricketts claim about Carnap.) Toward the end I critically discuss Michael Friedman's suggestion that Carnap believed in a relative a priori.

Colorado began its first major plate replacement since the late 1970s this year, and by December 31, 2003, all 4.5 million plates should have the new designs. Although most people will get the standard white plate with green numbers and letters (which takes the place of green plates with white letters), there are actually 74 different kinds of plates, almost all of them showing the signature mountain range in the background: Military plates have a blue background, firefighter plates have a red background, Knights of Columbus plates have a yellow background, pioneer plates have a maroon background, etc. There was almost a Columbine High School remembrance plate that would have read "Respect Life," but many people thought it sounded too much like an anti-abortion slogan, and the state legislature voted it down. The sportiest new plates, however, are the designer version (formerly called "denim"). Featuring a blue sky, a snowcapped purple mountain range, a grassy green foreground and the state's symbolic red and yellow "C," the designer plates cost $25 a year -- but they sure are pretty. See them all online at www.mv.state.co.us/titlereg/registration/plates/alphalist.html.
Readers' choice: The old green and white plates
Everyone has musical skeletons in their closet: an embarrassing Euro-trash obsession, a long-outgrown affinity for death metal, an Alanis Morissette disc purchased during a particularly weak moment. Don't fret. The curiously friendly counter crew at Cheapo Discs has seen it all, and they pass bills instead of judgment. Here, old, unwanted CDs turn into money -- which one can pocket or spend on the store's impressive and inexpensive inventory of used discs. It all works off the magical and dynamic wheel of musical tastes. After all, the Cheapo people know that we all make mistakes -- and that at any given moment, someone else is ready to make that same mistake again.
Now you can get one leg tattooed while the other one is being waxed! No, seriously: The Blue Door does offer tattooing services, along with related applications of permanent cosmetics and henna body painting. But you can also indulge in every bit of new-age massage media, from Reiki to aromatherapy, all provided by experienced women practitioners. Kick back. Take the ring out of your nose. Relax.
One day earlier this year, a young woman arrived in Capitol Hill to get her hair done. Since her regular hairdresser was still snipping the locks of another customer, the woman wandered two doors down, walked into Twisted Sol and got her genitalia pierced. There are many ways to kill time while waiting to get a haircut -- reading a magazine, for instance -- but there's nothing as creative as getting a new piercing or tattoo, and finer tattoo aficionados can spot a Twisted Sol epidermis a mile away. Whether it's Jeff Kopp's pinpoint portraits or Jeramiah Clark's spray-paint style, this place has the finest den of young ink artists in Denver. "We'll work as many hours as there are in the day," says co-owner Alicia Cardenas. Currently, there's a three-month waiting period for any of the five featured tattooists, but that will change soon. This month, Twisted Sol will expand into an adjacent space (the former Majordomos coffee shop) and add two new tattooists and another piercer. Cardenas says the store will also sell tribal art and jewelry. Whatever you decide on, it's sure to go perfectly with your trendy new trim.
Imagine Baco-Bits made of yesterday's Firestones, and you're on your way to envisioning Crown Three, a nifty lawn-care product from a company called Jaitire. Sprinkle it on heavily trafficked areas of turf grass -- dog runs, the mailman's shortcut, the path your kids beat to the swingset -- and this tiny rubber carpet will protect the crown of the grass root while conserving water, extending the growing season and insulating your lawn from the winter blues. Keep your car off the lawn, though. Non-recycled tires tend to leave a mark.
Taking its design inspiration from the board game Candy Land, the folks at Can Land Recycling do their damnedest to put the fun back into recycling. Nestled among the modular-home dealerships of north Federal, the entrance to Can Land is marked by candy-cane-striped poles and a huge, festive sculpture of suspended wooden barrels with massive grins and outstretched arms. That welcome alone is worth all the drudgery of rinsing and sorting a truckload of garbage. The grounds are decorated with a profusion of brightly colored paintings of happy homes and grateful cans caught frozen for all eternity in mid-hug. Maybe hope and happiness can live on beyond the confines of a children's game.

"Kidman: No baddie does it better" trumpets the Daily Telegraph's headline today prefacing a particularly bland interview with Nicole herself about her role as the evil Mrs Coulter in The Golden Cmopass. And indeed, no one does. But then, she has had a lot of practice seeing as the point where Nicole ends and the evil Mrs Coulter begins is not entirely clear. Read on. You know you want to.
So anyway, as you all surely know, Kidman plays Coulter - no, not Ann (although she does look, like Craig David, born to do it) but Mrs, the evil dominating she devil coined by Philip Pullman whose attitude to the maternal role is on a par with Dona Lohan's - use 'em then lose 'em.
And goodness, doesn't Kidman embrace the role? How does she immerse herself so thoroughly?
Well, a clue emerged from her recent interview on GMTV, increasingly the Panorama of the 21rst century. When asked about her children, Isabella, 14, and Connor, 12, Kidman sharply barked, ""They don't call me Mommy ... sometimes they call me Nicole." The chill just took you, didn't it? And just like Lyra in the Pullman series, the Cruise juniors do seem to have a relatively softer paternal figure in their lives - well, Tom Cruise let's them call him dad, at least. Connor, Isabella - keep those daemons close.

The West Indies are facing a mammoth task to rescue the match and the series against South Africa after reaching stumps 394 runs behind the hosts on the second day of the decisive third Test in Durban, which will be all-rounder Shaun Pollock's last international match. The 34-year-old South African announced at stumps on day two that he is to retire from international cricket at the end of the Test, his 108th. He has also played 298 one-day internationals.
The tourists closed on 23 for 0 in their second innings, with openers Brenton Parchment (17) and Daren Ganga (six) seeing off 11 overs after the home team declared on 556 for 4 – a first-innings lead of 417. With the series at 1-1, the West Indies were hoping to claim a first series win since 2003. Those hopes now appear to have been dashed, after Ashwell Prince and AB De Villiers joined Graeme Smith in making centuries.
"I'm looking forward to finishing things off from a cricket perspective," Pollock said. "Only time will tell what my involvement with South Africa will be. I'll be moving from a committed South Africa player to a committed South Africa supporter."
Pakistan, meanwhile, have asked the International Cricket Council to change the official result of The Oval Test against England played in 2006.
England were declared winners after Pakistan forfeited the match in protest over umpire Darrell Hair's decision to penalise them for alleged ball tampering. It was the first forfeited result in Test history. "We have moved the application on the basis of the ICC dropping the ball-tampering charges," said a Pakistan official. The good thing is that England supported our plea and the matter was discussed at the board meeting of the ICC and than referred to the cricket committee."

Winger Sharp - who had not scored a try all season for Quins - crossed the whitewash either side of the half-time interval for Brian McDermott's men.
Leeds' Scott Donald took his try tally to 21 for the season to reduce the deficit to four points late on but it was not enough to save the World Club champions - who had lost just twice in Super League all season - from defeat.
Full-back Clint Greenshields produced an inspired performance to help Catalans Dragons keep the pressure up in the engage Super League with a 45-38 victory over Wigan Warriors.
The 26-year-old Australian ran over a hat-trick of tries as Dragons bounced back from a first-half deficit with a strong performance after the interval.
Dragons scrum-half Thomas Bosc was also in form with the boot as he was successful with eight kicks to help the home side take the victory which left them a point behind second-placed St Helens and five points behind table-topping Leeds Rhinos.Reuse content

Cop Killer
I had a really erudite and, all things considered, hopeful and positive post halfway written for tonight. I had some Donna Summer ready to share, I was going to focus on hope and unification in trying times.
But then Donald Trump announced Steve Bannon as his Chief Strategist. And then word got out that the pig was going to try his hardest to remove the United States from the Paris Agreement, the climate accord that is the world's last chance to have any hope of stop climate change from literally killing billions of people. And y'know, all the other horrible stuff he has planned. But let's be honest, putting a white nationalist in the White House and committing the world to a climate Armageddon kind of take priority.
Anyone aiding Trump in his agenda is working to kill you and your loved ones. They're fascists.
And we know what we have to do to fascists.
And if you think what I'm saying is too extreme remember that Trump recommended "Second Amendment People" do something about Hilary and go fuck yourself.

Wearing a yellow outfit with trainers to match, the 10th seeded American recorded a 4-6, 6-1, 6-2 victory over world No 95 Anca Barna, of Germany.
"I was a little bit too nervous in the first set," admitted the 1999 US Open champion.
If it was difficult opening to the tournament for Williams, former champions Martina Hingis, the top seed, Lindsay Davenport and Monica Seles won in matches that lasted under an hour.
Switzerland's Hingis beat American wild-card Laura Granville 6-2, 6-0 in only 46 minutes. Third-seeded American Davenport took only 44 minutes to beat Germany's Andrea Glass 6-2, 6-3 and Seles, the No 7 seed from America, beat Australia's Nicole Pratt 6-1, 6-2.
Playing only her fourth match in six weeks, Justine Henin, the Belgian Wimbledon finalist, beat American Marissa Irvin 6-3, 6-3.
Since losing the Wimbledon final to Venus Williams in July, Henin has played only the Canadian Open more than a week ago, reaching the quarter-finals.
Former champion Arantxa Sanchez-Vicario narrowly avoided her earliest exit from the US Open since her 1987 debut at Flushing Meadow.
The Spaniard, seeded 20th, needed a third-set tie-break to defeat world No 63 Petra Mandula, from Hungary, 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 in just over two hours.
Jelena Dokic, the No 14 seed from Yugoslavia, also had to struggle to beat Italy's Adriana Serra-Zanetti 6-2, 3-6, 6-3.

Going for Baroque
The Prague Conservatory of Music has begun a new tradition of the teachers performing concerts together with their students. Such was the case with the inaugural concert for the school's new Baroque organ, with Jakub Kydlíček conducting the student Baroque Ensemble Feb 28.
This small, single-manual, single-pedal instrument is designed for interpretation especially of Baroque music. And everyone seemed to want a crack at the new organ.
So we had three different organists: Petr Čech, head of the Musical Theory Department, as well as Jan Kalfus and Jan Popleka, both members of the Organ Department. All of these gentlemen have respectable careers and have made many professional recordings.
The music was selected to showcase the new organ. We heard the Concerto for Organ and Orchestra Opus 7/1 HWV 306 by Handel; Concerto in F Major for Organ, Two Violins and Bass by Jan Křtitel Vaňhal; Concerto in G Major for Organ and Orchestra by František Xaver Brixi; and Hipocondrie by Jan Dismas Zelenka. The last three were Czech composers who enjoyed considerable acclaim both at home and abroad due to their brisk and inventive melodies.
The surprising alternation between major and minor, and quick polyphony in the work of Zelenka make this masterpiece difficult to perform, and quite an undertaking for the students. Although Zelenka spent most of his professional life abroad, he returned several times to produce and perform musical works in Bohemia. Many of his works are spirituals, but he also wrote secular works, including coronation music for Charles VI. Hipocondrie is one of these works that he composed in Prague.
What Fate Awaits?
How many of the student musicians we saw today will meet a similar fate?
The Palffy Palace, the location for this organ-inaugural concert, is the Conservatory's "early music" center, equipped with the organ and harpsichord, and the school's newly-established Baroque Orchestra rehearses there regularly, according to deputy director Aleš Kaňka.
The concert hall is similar to, although much smaller than, the Spanish Hall at Prague Castle. Comparisons would not be out of place despite the old chipping paint, cracked and watermarked ceiling, rickety chairs, and cheap wall-to-wall carpet under our feet. We kept having flashbacks to teaching at a secondary school in Prague 2 whose building had also seen better days.
Of course the withered veneer is merely a gloss over deeper systemic problems. The usual thoughts raced through our minds: What wouldn't some countries give for an institution of this caliber? Why is so little invested in our children, our future? If this is the face of austerity, we don't want to look into it.
The principal of the Conservatory, Pavel Trojan Sr, only emphasized these points in his opening words to those gathered, by lamenting the fact that their other venue, the Theater "Na Rejdišti" could also use some upgrades – desperately.
The last time the Prague Conservatory got a new organ was 1977. That is one tradition they hope to change.
But for tonight everybody was pleased with the newest addition to the Palffy Palace Chamber Concert Hall. It is a most adorable little organ on wheels and we hope it serves them well. — oo

"Fracture clinic - complete failure"
About: Princess Alexandra Hospital (Harlow) Princess Alexandra Hospital (Harlow) Harlow CM20 1QX
Posted by complaint pending!
Went to fracture clinic and had a very swift appointment regarding my broken hand. First off Dr asked why I was there as he was looking at someone else's x-rays! When right one viewed was told one fracture across the shaft of metacarpal. Then when cast was placed on hand, staff pressed down on cast in an area where she believed the fracture was but admitted she had not checked x-rays. After 3 weeks this got removed and Dr surprised it had not healed. Was in and out in 3 minutes. Was given a splint. Following further extreme pain went to Addenbrookes for second opinion. Turns out I had multiple fractures, including spiral break all the way down metacarpal. Its also dislodged at the base and rotated. Can not make a fist and now faced with surgery to have it re-broken and pinned. Should have been spotted from my initial x-rays! I can't drive and now face a further several months of uncertainty as to my rehab. Very dissatisfied with my treatment and assessment at Harlow fracture clinic and feel very let down by the Dr there who should have referred me to surgeon in the first instance had he actually spent more than a few seconds looking at my x-ray!
Response from Princess Alexandra Hospital 2 years ago

No Day-O
Hailing from the islands of Trinidad and Tobago, near Jamaica, calypso music is, in a way, the more folksy predecessor to its cousin, reggae which is somewhat ironic, considering the cultural associations of the two forms in these United States. While reggae at least has an authentically Jamaican icon in Bob Marley, about the closest calypso gets is Harry Belafonte. At tonights performance by the Women of Calypso, do not expect a rendition of the Banana Boat Song.
The Women come through Su Teatro @ the Denver Civic via an exchange program of sorts, courtesy of artist networks in the States and Latin America that introduce their performers to audiences abroad. At home in Trinidad, the women are a pretty big deal. The main thing is that they are really authentic but also interesting, because traditionally, its been men who have performed calypso, says Tanya Mote, development director for Su Teatro. This is kind of a feminist take on the genre. Its also, she notes, a full-fledged performance piece, complete with singing, dancing, acting and no small amount of political commentary.
See it tonight at Su Teatro, 721 Santa Fe Drive, at 7:30 p.m., with performances continuing through tomorrow and Saturday. For tickets, $17 to $20, or more information, call 303-296-0219 or visit www.suteatro.org.

Canada to set climate change tests in pipeline reviews: Trudeau
By Allison Lampert
MONTREAL (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pledged on Tuesday to require that environmental reviews of oil pipelines and LNG export projects consider greenhouse gas effects, and said it was not his role to be a cheerleader for such projects.
The Liberal government said the new rules would be rolled out within days, and that they would take into account not just the greenhouse gas emissions from a proposed pipeline or liquefied natural gas terminal but also its "upstream" effects, meaning the impact of oil and gas production.
Trudeau did not make clear how much weight would be applied to the emissions. U.S. President Barack Obama rejected TransCanada Corp's Keystone XL pipeline from Canada last year, citing the effect it could have on climate change.
"The federal role is to put into place a process by which TransCanada and any other company could demonstrate that their projects are in the public interest and could have public support," Trudeau told reporters after meeting Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre, who opposes TransCanada's Energy East pipeline.
Energy East would carry 1.1 million barrels of crude oil from Alberta and Saskatchewan across numerous provinces to refineries and export terminals in eastern Canada.
"What we are going to roll out very soon, as we promised in our election campaign, is to establish a clear process which will consider all the greenhouse gas emissions tied to a project, which will build on the work already done."
The Liberals have pledged to strengthen Canada's environmental process and have been working on a transition plan for projects currently under review to ensure they adhere to a higher standard without having to return to square one.
The new rules would apply to major pipeline and LNG projects like TransCanada's Energy East, Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain expansion and the Petronas-led Pacific NorthWest LNG export terminal. Continued...

Twenty Greatest is the sixth album released by British pop group Brotherhood of Man and their first compilation. It was released in 1978 and became their biggest selling album.
This album was a Greatest Hits compilation featuring all their hit singles up to this point as well as selected album tracks and new recordings. The album was released on K-Tel records (in association with their regular label Pye) in late September 1978 and reached No.6 in the UK album charts.[2] It remained on the charts for 15 weeks and was certified gold by the BPI, becoming the most successful album of their career.
The singles included are: "Lady", "Lady Lady Lay", "Kiss Me Kiss Your Baby", "Save Your Kisses for Me", "My Sweet Rosalie", "Oh Boy (The Mood I'm In)", "Angelo", "Highwayman", "Figaro", "Beautiful Lover" and "Middle of the Night". The early hits "United We Stand" and "Where are You Going to My Love" included here are new recordings by this version of the group. Two other new recordings for this album are cover versions of "How Deep Is Your Love" and "Send in the Clowns", which is largely an a cappella piece, with piano accompaniment by member Nicky Stevens.[3]
This album is sometimes referred to simply as Brotherhood of Man - as this was the name (erroneously) accredited to it in the UK Chart listings. Early pressings of the album gave the group's name as 'The Brotherhood of Man' (a name they hadn't been known as since the first incarnation of the group in the early 1970s) (see illustration), but later pressings had recified this to simply 'Brotherhood of Man'.
The Soviet record company Melodiya released this album in 1981 as a 12-track collection: Side A: "Save Your Kisses for Me", "Angelo", "Oh Boy (The Mood I'm In)", "My Sweet Rosalie", "Kiss Me Kiss Your Baby", "Beautiful Lover"; Side B: "Middle of the Night" , "Figaro", "Highwayman" , "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", "Lady Lady Lady Lay", "United We Stand".[4] This compilation was very popular in the USSR and sold 500,000 copies.

It now expects to post a group net profit of 6 billion yen, down 2 billion yen from its projection in November, and a consolidated operating profit of 35 billion yen, down 3 billion yen, on sales of 740 billion yen, down 17 billion yen. The Japanese camera and medical equipment maker slashed its full-year sales target for digital cameras from 7.3 million units to 6.2 million units. For the April to December period, Olympus returned to the black due mainly to robust performance in its medical business, booking a group net profit of 7.62 billion yen compared with a loss of 33.09 billion yen a year earlier. Its group operating profit for the nine-month period fell 5.2 percent to 24.61 billion yen, while sales dropped 10.2 percent to 561.23 billion yen. Olympus said its capital adequacy ratio rose to 9.7 percent as of the end of December after it fell to 2.2 percent in June following the firm's loss coverup scandal. The company attributed the recovery to the recent trend of a weaker yen as well as a payment of 19 billion yen from Sony Corp. as the first tranche of capital investment under their capital and business tie-up deal in the medical segment. ==Kyodo Share Save Facebook Share on Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Read More: Cameras Olympus Corp. /overseas/06/22/17/china-orders-websites-to-stop-video-streaming/classified-odd/06/22/17/cia-penetrated-by-insider-network-of-candy-thieves/overseas/06/22/17/trump-admits-he-has-no-tapes-of-comey-meetings/entertainment/06/22/17/watch-jameson-blake-picks-between-loisa-and-julia/video/news/06/22/17/panukala-inihain-sa-senado-laban-sa-fake-news

La Liga Round-Up
By Simon Fudge
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Frank Rijkaard's men got off to a superb start when Luis Garcia put the Catalans a goal up after just two minutes.
Luis Enrique doubled Barca's lead on the quarter hour mark, as the home side took a 2-0 lead into the break.
Luis Garcia scored his second just before the hour to make it 3-0, but The Islanders would stage a late fight-back to make the scoreline more respectable.
Samuel Eto'o made it 3-1 on 89 minutes before Andrija Delibasic scored Mallorca's second a minute later to give the Barca supporters a slight scare before the final whistle.
The win further solidifies Barcelona in the last UEFA Champions League spot in La Liga and takes them to within a point of third place Deportivo La Coruna.
Athletic Bilbao lost ground on Barcelona following a heavy 4-1 defeat at home to Real Valladolid.
The visitors got off to a superb start at San Mames when Roberto Losada scored the first of his two goals after just two minutes.
Valladolid then doubled their lead through Oscar Gonzalez on 14 minutes before Jesus gave his side a 3-0 lead at the break.
They made it 4-0 when Losada scored his second on 75 minutes before Bilbao got a consolation through substitute Julen Guerrero on 80 minutes for 4-1, as Valladolid enjoyed a excellent day in the Basque country.
In the late match on Sunday, Atletico Madrid earned a very late 1-1 draw with bottom club Murcia at the Vicente Calderon.
The result was harsh on the visitors and their faint hopes of avoiding a return back to the Segunda Liga.
Following a goalless first half, Murcia took the lead when Luis Garcia Fernandez was fouled in Atletico's box by Argentine veteran Diego Simeone.
From the spot, Fernandez stepped up to beat Sergio Aragoneses and give John Tochack's men a deserved 1-0 lead.
Atletico then had a man sent off with seven minutes left as Jorge used foul and abusive language to the assistant referee and he was given his marching orders.
It looked like Murcia were destined for their third win of the season, but six minutes of injury time at the end of the game allowed Atletico to win a free kick on the edge of the box.
Nano nailed a left-footed strike past a frozen Roberto Bonano in Murcia's goal to earn the home side a point and keep them level on points with fifth place Athletic Bilbao.
Murcia are 12 points adrift of safety in La Primera and looked destined to go back to La Segunda at the season's end.
Sevilla won their mid-table clash with Villarreal at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan with a 2-0 victory on Sunday evening.
Following a 0-0 first half, a second half brace from Carlos Dominguez gave the home side all three points.
Albacete pulled further away from the relegation zone after an excellent 1-0 win over Real Betis at the Carlos Belmonte.
Antonio Pacheco's 27th minute strike was the difference in the end, as Albacete go five points clear of the Primera Liga's drop zone.
Real Zaragoza also earned an important win as they look to get away from the drop zone following a 1-0 win over Malaga at La Romareda.
The visitors went down to ten men just before the break as Duda was sent off for a second bookable offence.
Zaragoza finally made their man advantage pay off as David Villa Sanchez scored on 72 minutes to secure three valuable points for his side.

folks, as you might have noticed i have just committed a large chunk of code to the jackrabbit/contrib. this is an implementation of a webdav based jsr170 server protocol. the intention is to have a java indepented protocol for jsr170 compliant applications (for example a jsr170 PHP application connecting via webdav to a jackrabbit repository). it consists of the following parts: jackrabbit contrib jcr-server server -> generates jcr-server-xxx.jar client -> generates jcr-client-xxx.jar webdav -> generates jcr-webdav-xxx.jar webapp -> generates jackrabbit-server.war the jcr-server.jar contains: - the server code - RepositoryStartupServlet (easily start a jackrabbit-repository in your webapp if not feasible in appserver) - the simple WebdavServlet that serves a simple webdav view of the repository - the JCRWebdavServerServlet that serves the JCRServer the jcr-client.jar contains: - the RepositoryAccessServlet that enables easy configuration and access to a repository (see web.xml in war to see posibilities) - the client code (not existent yet) the jcr-webdav.jar contains: - a common webdav library used by the client and server. the jackrabbit-server.war contains: - sample configuration for easy deployment of server/servlets mentioned above - all necessary libs - index.jsp a first draft of the documentation of the protocol can be downloaded here: http://www.day.com/jsr170/server/JCR_Webdav_Protocol.zip all code has been contributed by angela schreiber. she is now developing the client part of it and hopfuly be able to provide that chunk in the near future aswell. thanks angela! cheers, tobi -- ------------------------------------------< firstname.lastname@example.com >--- Tobias Strasser, Day Management AG, Barfuesserplatz 6, CH - 4001 Basel T +41 61 226 98 98, F +41 61 226 98 97 -----------------------------------------------< http://www.day.com >---

Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest
|Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest
Also known as: Final Fantasy USA Mystic Quest (JP), Mystic Quest Legend (EU)
This game has unused graphics.
|This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion.
Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?
Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest is a gaiden game in the Final Fantasy series, and is largely considered the black sheep of the series...at least until the PlayStation 2 era and beyond.
With simplistic gameplay that borders between novel and tedious, it still remains a modestly enjoyable experience, especially with the excellent soundtrack by Ryuji Sasai.
Unused Elemental Defense Graphics
Four small menu icons representing defense against earth, physical damage (including player axes, but not swords or claws), indirect attacks (including Phoebe's bow and Tristam's shurikens), and reverse drain. Reverse drain does nothing on its own, but if paired with drain protection it will cause the damage and healing dealt by drain-elemental attacks to be reversed.
Resistances against the attack types themselves exist and are used, but are enemy-only since no items, not even the unique ones equipped by allies, offer any protection against these four damage types. Furthermore, while enemies can have a weakness to explosives, it appears unaccounted for in these elements – if a confused hero attacks himself with a bomb, he won't resist it even with all eight.
Silence Status
One of the eight status ailments in the game, Silence is attempted to be inflicted by a couple of attacks, such as the Mage's Muffle. Regardless of resistance or lack thereof, it never seems to get set. Nevertheless, the status does exist, complete with accompanying effects.
CPU/PPU1/PPU2 information
Pause the game, then press Start+Select to display the versions of your SNES console's CPU, PPU1, and PPU2 chips. This only works on the first US release, not on either the Rev. A version, nor the Japanese release.
Revisional Differences
In addition to the above, the first US release also contains a sound processor bug that can cause a major freeze in any area that, ironically, plays the frozen-over "Falls Basin" music. Said music also plays in the Mine and the Spencer's Place waterfall. Since the game can be saved at any point, this is only a minor annoyance.
Regional Differences
Gameplay Balance
A number of gameplay changes were made to the US localization (despite the game being made for overseas audiences).
- In the English version of the game, the Life spell instantly kills non-undead enemies. In the Japanese version, it instantly kills undead enemies.

My Son Can Have His Hair Cut Short Now!
We had debated for many years whether my son should have his ears "pinched". We finally decide to do it, and the only regret I have is not having done it sooner. On the other hand, it was worth it doing enough research and finding the right doctor. Our experience was wonderful from beginning to end. The office personnel is experienced, friendly and most importantly - efficient!... READ MORE

St. Patrick's Day Engagement Party
Mother of the groom wanted a "sophisticated" engagement cake with a St. Patrick's Day theme, since the party was last night. While I think it's a bit of a challenge to make St. Paddy's day "sophisticated", this is what I came up with ;-) WASC cake with buttercream, covered in fondant. Purchased ribbon at the base of each tier.

Jeep car, truck, or SUV owners have become used to a certain level of ruggedness when driving their Grand Wagoneer around town. Your Jeep dealership isn't the only place to locate the best repair parts to fix your Grand Wagoneer. While it may not be difficult to buy replacement parts for Jeep vehicles, these days the necessity for nothing but the absolute best are required to fix your car or truck. Anyone who drives a Jeep knows that when it comes to maintaining their automobile only the absolute best replacement parts will do.
The ability to control your car or truck's speed is crucial to keeping you and your passengers safe. But it wasn't until a few decades after the first cars were produced that brake drums were invented. Your Jeep Grand Wagoneer brake drum is a large hollow cylinder, the interior surface of which the brake shoes press against to create the friction needed to slow down your vehicle. Drum brakes are not as efficient in the rain because they can collect water in the bottom, as well as become "out of round" because of the asymmetrical way the shoes apply friction to the inside when your Jeep Grand Wagoneer comes to a stop.
Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make buying it easy. Ordering new Jeep parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the most superior original and aftermarket replacement Grand Wagoneer parts on the internet. At Car Parts Discount, we have live customer service members here with enough expertise to help you buy the correct Jeep Grand Wagoneer part for your project or repair. When it comes to Jeep Grand Wagoneer Brake Drum parts, you can find them for 1993, 1991, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1987, 1986, 1985, 1984 models by clicking the appropriate year below.

When the Treasury announced its stamp duty holiday on Tuesday, there was a lot of head-scratching at Westminster as journalists tried to work how it could possibly cost £600m (the government's official estimate).
It was not just journalists who could not make the sums add up; organisations like the Institute for Fiscal Studies and the Council of Mortgage Lenders have both said the actual cost should turn out to be far lower.
Jim Pickard, from the FT, has now come up with an ingenious explanation. This is how he puts it on his blog.
There are only two possible explanations for this that I can see.
1. Treasury officials were so idiotic that they expected 2m housing transactions in a year. (There were fewer than 300,000 in the first six months of 2008.)
2. Gordon Brown wanted the current exemption lifted to £250,000 - not the £175,000 announced on Tuesday. And in the confusion surrounding the announcement of the housing package (the PM and chancellor were still debating changes to mortgage interest support late on Monday night) someone forgot to change the number.
Pickard favours explanation two. And he explains why:
The maths is really simply. Half of all deals in the 12 months to early 2008 fell within the £125-250k bracket. If there were 700,000 transactions this year (which is what the CML expects) there would be about 350,000 deals in the £125-250k bracket ... raising how much stamp duty? ... wait for it ... it really is uncanny ... £600m.
For the record, the Treasury says Pickard's theory's wrong.
"Our costings reflect the policy we announced and no other policy," a spokesman told me. He said that there was an "element of judgment" in the figures and that the Treasury was "obliged to be cautious" (ie to overestimate the cost). But he said the Treasury would not be releasing the data relating to the underlying assumptions it used to come up with its £600m figure.
If that's what they say, I'll take them at their word. You can decide for yourself.

[Hammock Camping] was piece of mind, now hammock design
Expand Messages
- well i wont use a structural ridge line per say it would be a strap
from one tree to another that the fly can hang off of.
also the hammock will hook to loops ( multible loops ) on the strap
so different sags only take a second. different sags apply to useing
as a chair vrs hammock or even both sides to one loop and it is out
of the way in 1 sec
the bug net will also hang from this strap but be removable
and will have asym tie outs ( i like um )
now for extreme light weight the ridge strap can be changed to just
short straps and hung speer style with no bug net or fly
just think HH shape with speer access, risk's weighted bug net, a
ridge line you could hang on. A single step in the rain ie : run
strap to hang both hammock and fly from not 2 seperate steps ie: hang
fly then hang hammock.]
etc etc
hanging whole thing should take 3 mins fly and all

From left: Chevron grain dresser, £699, at the first UK West Elm store, opening December 5 at 209 Tottenham Court Road (0800 404 9780); Market shelf by Lostine, £750 at SCP (scp.co.uk)
Already an important part of the London shopping scene, American homeware from Stateside stores and designers get a significant addition next Thursday when Brooklyn-based home furnishings and gifts chain West Elm opens its first UK store in the capital.
In Tottenham Court Road, it's taking on a street already saturated with furnishers including Habitat, Heal's, BoConcept, Futon Company, Sofa Workshop, Natuzzi, Raft, Dreams, Lombok and DFS.
So what can West Elm do differently at number 209? It has a huge breadth of merchandise and styles — the fat catalogue is stashed with upholstery, tables, cupboards, chairs, rugs, linens, mirrors, tableware and more.
From left: Slice café and dining chairs from Seattle-based Graypants (graypants.com/slice-chairs); Adelphi Lounge Chair designed by Sally Sirkin Lewis at J Robert Scott, Design Centre Chelsea Harbour (020 7376 4705)
There's no particular "look". You'll find simple, modern pieces — plump sofas, glossy white coffee tables, sleek storage — alongside rural stickback chairs, reclaimed wood, and deluxe satin cushions, ready-to-hang velvet curtains and metallic finishes. "I'd say our magic is in this mix," says creative director Vanessa Holden.
West Elm's plans include British merchandise and ideas — there's a wall of British art, for example — free consultations from stylists and fun workshops. "Our stores are hands-on creative spaces," says Holden.
Other Americans in London include:
Arrived on Regent Street in 2009 with fashion and furnishing. King's Road followed the next year, and another branch has just opened in Guildford. The merchandise is bijou, with quirky furniture plus china, glass, quilted and embroidered linens and decorative cupboard knobs.
Clockwise from top left: Brook Street Club Ottoman from Ralph Lauren, from £1,514, ordered from the US online store at ralphlaurenhome.com; 36cm pottery Peace Hand (£225) from Jonathan Adler, Sloane Avenue (jonathanadler.com); Bel Air mini scoop vase, £98, from Jonathan Adler (as before); Megatropolis ceramic collection by Brooklyn-based illustrator Mark McGinnis for SCP, from £16.25 (scp.co.uk)
This potter-turned-retailer has 25 US stores and a South Kensington satellite which opened in 2011. He calls his style "cheeky chic". Bold ceramics and gold/neon accessories are mixed in with classic sofas and lighting, and hand-loomed rugs.
There are two stores with pricey, sophisticated homeware. Think posh hunting lodge, Long Island drawing room or American-in-Paris apartment. Furniture is oversized, with layered berry shades, rich chocolate and cream, glossy lacquer, vintage leather, tweed, cashmere and tartan. There are also cut-crystal goblets, manly chessboards, tasteful crockery and huge, luxurious cushions.
The founder of SCP East and West, two of London's favourite design stores, is cultivating a new wave of US design talent, inevitably labelling his project the "special relationship". Many American designers are also makers. Coakley says: "US design is genuinely different, and uninfluenced by Europe."
From left: Westley Thunder carpet (2ft 6in by 9ft) from US designer Madeline Weinrib's flat weave range, £325 (madelineweinrib.com); Beaded pillow in Topiary design from Jonathan Adler, Sloane Avenue (jonathanadler.com)
At Design Centre Chelsea Harbour, beloved of interior designers, more than a fifth of the 550 luxury décor brands spread over 89 showrooms are now American. At its best, America can offer a glamour that owes a lot to Hollywood and art deco, delivered with impeccable craft and bespoke options taken for granted.
J Robert Scott's craftspeople in California excel at cabinet-making, gilding, inlay, upholstery and stonework, and have perfected a new technique for dip-dye veneers. Donghia stocks deluxe furniture, plus gold and silver, textured and light-reflecting, creamy fabrics. There are tiles and taps at Ann Sacks, rugs at Stark Carpets and top-quality leathers at Edelman.
Samuel & Sons Passementerie stocks more than 10,000 tassels, borders, braids and fringes. The Nanz Company offers extravagant hardware that turns doors or cabinets into statements.
Fabrics and papers abound, many from old-established names with awesome archives, such as Brunswig & Fils and Ramm, Son & Crocker. Artisanal specialist Tissus d'Hélène, has hand-blocked, hand-screened and/or hand-dyed and washed fabrics and papers from 23 small American studios.

4 Minute Read
You know us, and you know we want you to believe in budgeting—if for no other reason than the fact that it works! The worst part about the budget isn't that it's difficult (because it's not). The worst part is all the misunderstanding and myths floating out there about why you shouldn't budget.
If you're smart—and we think you are—then you'll let go of these budgeting myths, excuses and misunderstandings, and win with money.
1. I don't have the time to budget.
When you start a budget, you might spend a couple of hours a month getting your budget down. After the first few months, it's pretty much smooth sailing. You're simply plugging in numbers and letting math do the rest.
Local experts you can trust.Find an ELP
So if you're currently not doing a budget because you "don't have the time," then your priorities must be out of whack. Because if you're too busy to make your money goals a higher priority, then we would be curious to see what you do have the time for. Create a zero-based budget online for free right here.
2. Budgeting is boring.
You would be amazed at how many grown adults don't make a budget every month because it's "boring." You know what else is boring? Credit cards statements. And bankruptcy court. And collector calls. . . . Actually, those aren't very boring.
If you're a Free Spirit and can't stand the thought of putting a budget together, take a breath. You can do this. Once you get the hang of it, making a budget isn't all that bad! Get your Nerd spouse or a friend to help you out.
3. Making a budget is difficult math, and I hate math.
This isn't rocket science. If you can do basic third-grade math, you can make a budget. You have your income and your outgo, and they need to equal zero. Hey, it's a poem!
Seriously, this is a really lame excuse. Use our free budget software EveryDollar to help you get started and make the math a little easier. But don't stay away from the budget because "the math is too hard." It's not.
4. I do a budget in my head.
If you can seriously do a zero-based budget in your head every single month, we'll assume you are the most brilliant person on the planet. Could you please help our government make a budget?
You May Also Like
A budget in your head isn't a budget. It's just a kinda-sorta-I've-got-a-vague-idea-of-what-I-spend deal-ish thing. To work, a budget needs to be on paper or a spreadsheet or something you can maintain monthly and track. Besides that, if you're married and doing a budget in your head, then only one of you is involved in the decision making, and that's a definite no-no!
5. I budget by keeping track of every thing I spend.
That's a start, but it's not a budget. Because when you only track spending, then you're always looking at the past and never looking forward.
Your budget is your plan for the upcoming month. You're planning the money you haven't spent yet. When you keep receipts or use your online banking to see what you spent last month, you're doing just that—looking at last month. Look forward and back—not just one or the other. If you're already tracking your spending, the budget is just a natural next step. It should be easy for you.
It's disheartening that so many people have fallen for these budgeting myths and excuses. The good news is that you don't have to be one of them.
When it comes to your money, you definitely don't want to be someone who will "fall for anything." Take control of your money by taking control of your budget.
