About Austin
I like all of these options on some level, but the second one is an issue: Require Actual Reduction to Practice and Commercialization
When you file for a patent in the first place, you're doing so BEFORE production begins. This is almost a universal truth, since after production has already started, if you have not yet patented your own product, someone else will do so immediately and then sue you - another sort of troll. We'll call them Ice Trolls. (What can I say? I play a lot of Skyrim!)
So perhaps this would suffice:
Either require production, or else, if none can be shown within 2 years, a single motion can be filed and all the money ordered returned, with interest.
This allows genuine, valid patents to still prevent infringement while their product is finishing development but gives defendants a fair remedy against trolls who are no more likely to begin production in 2 years than they were when they filed the suit.
Other than this though, I love all these suggestions.
Surprised to see this from B&N. Happy, but surprised.
...until they catch a senator and his mistress eating a fancy supper (or worse) and the wife finds out. When that happens, one of two reactions will follow:
1) Congress will suddenly change its mind and this constant surveilence will be declared officially bad.
2) Congress will approve the next no-bid contract from the same company with no debate and we eventually end up with a corporate police state rather than the government police state we have now.
Sadly we have to hope for the former because it's the lesser of two evils for all of us.
Well, except the 100 senators who have all the real power.
This is the problem with a representative republic: only the representatives have any actual power.
Keep in mind, this MAY help her avoid any sort of liability for reading (or neglecting to read) emails. But it doesn't help the staff she delegates these things to. In other words, this doesn't really remove the blame for a potential failure. It merely shifts it to the hired help.
If I was working for her I'd quit over something like this on as good terms as possible. The alternative is that, sooner or later, something will hit the fan and THEY will be the ones fired in disgrace, not the Luddite boss. At least if her staff quits now they might get a good recommendation out of it.
It depends on the specific position, but some judges - including the magistrate judges that often hear administrative law hearings (including trademark, though not copyright) - don't even have to be lawyers. Neither do probate judges. One county in my state (Alabama) has a cotton farmer as probate judge. Not even kidding.
It's hilarious the kind of rulings you regarding people's estates from down there, heh.
As noted, willful infringement only requires an allegation, not proof. The only way to defeat the "willful" clause is to defeat the infringement part.
However, since MERE USE OF BITTORRENT is not infringement, that should've been easy here. The problem is that, without Glover bothering to answer the lawsuit (Remember, complaints cost money, but ANSWERS ARE FREE!), we have no counter-proof that what he used bittorrent FOR wasn't infringing. Was it? Probably not, but without an Answer filed, the Judge is legally bound to assume everything in the complaint is fact.
The real issue here is that Glover didn't respond at all. That's the problem. Accordingly, there's nothing as a matter of law or procedure wrong with this judgment, unless Glover wasn't properly served. As long as service was perfected, this is all, sadly, totally legit and the way the legal system is supposed to work.
Hopefully we will find out he was served at the wrong address or not at all, etc. A LOT of these trolling operations will pay a "process server" (not a REAL process server, but someone who claims to be one) to just sit around and sign affidavits all day claiming they couldn't serve the guy. Then, they run an ad in the local newspaper with the narrowest circulation (service by publication) and, when the defendant doesn't somehow hear about the ad in 30 days, boom, default judgment granted.
It's sneaky, and if the process server didn't make a good faith effort, it's illegal. But if he did, or if they tried certified mail and it was rejected, it's totally legit.
This is not entirely true.
A judge, even at the district court level, can hold a lawyer in contempt - i.e. put them in a holding cell in the local jail - the exact same way they can with a defendant. The trick is, they must bring them back for hearing every 72 hours. But they can, if they're willing to have a rehearing every 72 hours, keep them there indefinitely.
My boss was a district court judge for almost 2 years. One time, a deadbeat bought a car, made the down payment with a worthless check, then failed to make 11 months of payments before the car dealer finally sued him. When brought in for a hearing on the matter, the man said, and I quote "I have the money. I just don't see why I should pay them."
After over a dozen hearings and almost 2 months in jail, he finally decided to pay them. She brought the man up for hearing every 3 days until he finally changed his mind. It was a lot of work on her part, but she was rather offended at his total lack of any intent to pay his bill, so she made the effort to force him to do it.
So yes, if a lawyer (or defendant) refuses to follow a judge's orders, through the magic of every-3-day-hearings, they CAN (but rarely do) hold them there literally forever. The question is this: Will Prenda Law piss them off badly enough to tempt Judge Wright into doing something this drastic.
Knowing Prenda, I'd bet the guys in the tank will be getting some company.
Congrats man!
Totally off topic but idc.
Addendum to this story: everyone in Africa who can afford shoes now has them, and those who can't now want them.
Moral: Either sell the masses shoes at a reasonable price, or they'll go steal them. Simply "going barefoot" isn't an option, and if you won't sell them conveniently and reasonably priced, they'll get their damned shoes however they can.
Seeing as how apparently using uTorrent - even for legal traffic - is illegal now, I'm really glad I'm not in NZ.
Why, just this week I tried downloading Ubuntu 12.04, then realized about 20% through that I should be downloading the 64-bit ISO instead. So, I cancelled the 32-bit torrent, and downloaded the 64-bit one. After a lot of trial and error (more error than trial, really) I settled on CrunchBang (this is for a server I ended up removing the GUI from anyway, but the install process for standard Debian is a freaking nightmare) and torrent-ed that.
So nevermind that I'm using a perfectly legal program to download free, open source software. Had I been in NZ, not only would they find me guilty of 2 counts - I'd be guilty of a third count of this nonsense due to the TOTALLY UNUSABLE 20% DOWNNLOAD of 32-bit Ubuntu I didn't even freaking finish.
I know a lot of people, when defending the TSA, like to make the point that we haven't been hit domestically since 9/11 so "it must be working" but here's a better question: How many terrorists has the TSA stopped in the past 11 years?
The TSA has the 4th largest budget in the entire federal government (it's part of DHS, which is actually second, but if you break down exactly how much of DHS's budget is TSA, it's 4th) and has cost the constantly-failing airline industry equally as much as it has cost taxpayers directly. Over the past 11 years, there has been 1 new TSA job for every 4 jobs lost by the airlines, so it's a net job loss too. Add to all this insult the probably millions of people who are dying of cancer as we speak from the damn body scanners, and the true "cost" of the TSA is incredibly high.
So what has this all bought us? Has the TSA stopped one single terrorist in the past 11 years?
I know the FBI has stopped a few (and pretended to stop many more) and I know the passengers, not the TSA, stopped that shoe bomber guy. Hell, the flight attendants stopped a guy trying to shoot someone on SouthWest several years ago. Yet, for all this talk of stopping terrorists, has the TSA stopped any at all? Even one?
Or perhaps the more appropriate question is in order: has it stopped more deaths at the hands of terrorists than it has caused through the body scanners? Has it saved more lives than it has all-but-destroyed through the overly invasive pat-downs and cavity searches? Has it caused more terrorists to miss their would-be flight than it has stopped people from making it to important meetings, holidays, or even people trying to reach dead or dying family members halfway across the country?
I'm willing to bet the answer is no. In fact, I'm willing to risk flying cross-country on a non-TSA-secured plane the rest of my life to prove it.
After all, the flight attendant has a better chance of saving me anyway.
Well...in an effort to (try and probably fail to) settle this once and for all, here ya go: http://www.cudahynow.com/blogs/communityblogs/118337144.html
First thing's first, the entries on the official Forbes 400 list have switched around a little. Basically Christ Walton has fallen from #4 to #6, but this doesn't change the list.
Now, I have verified that entries 4-10 are correct. I mean, nobody is going to dispute that the Koch Brothers (5 & 6) are Republicans (or at least Tea Party-iers, which all run as Republicans) and considering as how Michael Bloomberg is a sitting Republican mayor at this very moment, we can't debate that either. The Walton family (of Wal-Mart fame) occupies all the remaining seats, and have both overwhelmingly supported republicans in elections, and also in several situations given political speeches on their behalf.
I haven't checked 11-20 and don't intend to, however I do want to note that, although Bill Gates funnels most of his money into charities that would seem to support the Democrats, most of his donations directly to either candidates or PACs are to Republicans by a margin of almost 2-to-1, so we can assume that he is one of those "Reagan Democrats" that agrees with the Democrats socially but the Republicans on economics, so he's really split.
In addition, Larry Ellison is also debatable. Whilst he has made scarce few political contributions at all, he has almost singlehandedly funded at least 2 senate races in 2010, both for Republicans. The one of the two that won then authored a bill, literally on his third day in office, WHILE THE PAINT IN HIS OFFICE WAS LITERALLY STILL DRYING, trying to push Oracle hardware in a new database system being used by the Border Patrol. This despite the fact that the existing system at the time was only 2 years old and had complaints from a total of only 2 actual Border Patrol agents, total. Whilst this shows no real political allegiance towards the Republican party, it does show at least that Mr. Ellison has some preference for buying Repiblicans over buying Democrats, heh.
So yeah, there ya go. Out of the top ten richest people in America, somewhere between 7 to 9 of them are Republicans.
But really, when you have one party building its entire economic platform on the idea of "trickle-down economics" and the other pushing "trickle-up economics" it's no wonder that the people from whom the money would be trickling down (or not) support the Republican party. It just makes common sense.
Just wanted to say that 1) All of this is true.
And 2) I HATE that it is true. Why? Because Samsung sucks.
Not Android, mind you. Android is freaking awesome. But really, both Acer and ASUS tablets are vastly superior to anything Samsung (or Apple) makes, and not locking down the bootloaders helps that a LOT. On the phone side, HTC is still king. I mean, they're losing market share left and right, but they still make the best phones out there, period. And I know this from experience.
In early August I got a T-Mobile Sidekick 4. It's made by Samsung, and at the time it was just over 3 months old. Yes, really. My previous phone was a G2, also T-Mobile branded, but produced by HTC. I used the sidekick for 2 weeks, and in those 14 short days, I almost totally bricked the damn thing 7 times, including 3 times JUST REBOOTING IT. Yes, it was such a cheap piece of crap simply rebooting the thing was enough to require that I USB it in and re-flash thee stock firmware. It's THAT bad. And it's not just that device. The dual-core Samsung phone with the 2GB of memory and the "big, beautiful screen" my mother briefly tried before running screaming back to her iPhone wasn't any better. Now I'm back on my 2-and-a-half-year-old HTC G2. It's old, it's slow, but yanno what? It's running ICS, it has a BACKLIT HARDWARE KEYBOARD, and it never, ever crashes. The 2 year newer Samsung can't do ANY of that, much less all of it.
So yeah. As much as I hate Samsung, I hate Apple much more, so I'm happy to see this. But don't get me wrong - only because, as long as Samsung keeps pushing back, iOS doesn't take over the market, and that's a good thing.
This is why, even when I buy legit, boxed games, I go find and install a crack anyway. And I buy quite a few. Right now, I have 24 games installed, and I have boxes for 19 of them sitting on the shelf above my desk right this very moment, all legally bought at full price. The other 5 I've had for less than 2 weeks. Unless something changes, I'll be buying two of them (Borderlands 2 and Dishonored) on Saturday after I get my patcheck, and I'll simply delete the other 3 and never see them again. I call this a self-imposed 14 day trial, and to date I've only ever violated this once (and then a friend bought me Minecraft so that corrected that situation.)
But back to the point, guess how many of those 19 boxes I bought I've ever opened? Zero. None. Notta. For all 19 of those games, I'm still running the copy I pirated. They have no bugs, no DRM, and no steam (yes I know that's repetitive since steam IS DRM, but many people don't see it that way...) I never have a game magically disappear because some dumbass running a cloud server doesn't THINK I bought it. I never get kicked off multiplayer because I have singleplayer cheats enabled (I'm looking at you, ME3 - and yes, I only have cheats enabled that don't effect multiplayer anyway, i.e. all items in stores, etc.) And yet, I still support games and the companies who make them, with my wallet - I just don't support the asshats they outsource their DRM to.
I was trying to come up with some sort of excellent retort or funny aside to post in response to this lunacy, but I think I have developed some sort of strange chemical imbalance wherein, when a story on Techdirt reaches the highest levels of "OMG how fucking dumb can you be?"-ness, I start seeing blood and feeling rage and can't think straight.
Is this normal? Maybe this only happens with prolonged Techdirt reading? Perhaps I need to lay off it for a while or something? And how did my CD collection end up in shattered pieces on the floor?!
Oh well, back to The Bay.
Stardock has a habbit of breaking ground in a lot of ways, and this probably stems from their origins. They didn't being as a game studio, but rather making desktop customization products - skin engines, icon replaces, etc. They did this because, simply put, the customization that XP offered "built in" was crap, and they sought to improve it. Personally, I only ever used IconPackager (decided I was happy with a normal XP theme) but it was a well-crafted piece of software that did something nothing else did at the time. More to the point, it wasn't rehashing something that someone else had done, nor was it filling an existing niche. It was creating a brand new niche, and it was executing on it very, very well.
Skip forward to Sins of a Solar Empire, the first big foray they made into games (and the last one I paid much attention to) and they did it again. We have Starcraft, we have Supreme Commander, etc. RTS games set in space are nothing new, nor is the 3-faction standard nor the scroll-in-and-out bit. What Sins did well is, strangely enough, putting space combat IN SPACE. Starcraft? Either on a planet or on a station. SupCom? Again, planetside. Frankly the main feature for me of Sins was to finally play a space-based RTS that was all actually in fucking space. What a concept! Of course, it also didn't hurt that they made the game so easy to mod. Why anyone releases a game with code in place specifically to PREVENT modding is beyond me. I can understand not wanting to ADD modding capability, but Christ, why would you ever, EVER remove it?!
So anyhow...honestly, I'll probably give this new game a shot. My experience with Stardock has always been good, and to see them admit a mistake is always a plus.
Also, to comment #3 up there, it wouldn't work. Stardock has their own steam-like platform called Impulse. My bet is that it's probably added to the Impulse account of people who bought the previous game. Impulse is a rather unique variation-on-a-theme of Steam. As far as I know (I don't use either of them, or Origin, or any other DRM-masked-as-an-updater system) the main difference is that Impulse doesn't stop you from playing your games when you're offline. Imagine that!

So there's a 9.5 hour difference in time here between the surveillance and the most likely source/destination of any potentially useful intel. Now, maybe my math is wrong and perhaps my sense of how terrorists operate is rooted too deeply in TV shows like Homeland, but here's the problem with closing at 4:30PM or 9PM, either one: They're closed when the terrorists are awake.
So they're spying on their own citizens, fellow Canadians, but they're LITERALLY asleep at the wheel during the hours when any ACTUAL terrorists are likely to pass information through their network. Brilliant! Fucking brilliant!
I gotta say, as an American this makes me feel better. I mean, at least there's a itsy bitsy teeny tiny chance that the NSA's program MIGHT catch SOME useful intel since, yanno, they're at least fucking awake. Our system may be pure, unaldutured evil, but at least it has a CHANCE of working.
I still believe that having robots do things for us isn't a bad thing. I WANT robot drivers. Have you SEEN how absolutely AWFUL a HUMAN driver is? Even people who drive 300 laps per day in the exact same circle (NASCAR) frequently have wrecks that kill them! For something so readily predictable, that's disgraceful. A robot would never make such a catastrophic error when the task is doing the exact same thing over and over and over...
Cars aside, I don't think allowing robots to replace manufacturing jobs is bad either. I want a future like WALL-E minus the pollution. Think about it: aside from the pollution, WALL-E's future is pretty damn Utopian.
Of course, I also want to eventually be able to upload my mind into a robot chassis and live forever, so if nothing else I want to see advanced AIs because any system capable of running a sufficiently advanced AI should be capable of emulating a human brain with the right modifications.
Seriously though, this isn't all bad news. Some of this is awesome.
I code, but only PHP (I can read C, JAVA, a few others, but can't go beyond a "hello world" without a quick reference close at hand) so my ability to contribute patches is minimal. However, I have contributed 20+ WINE compatibility reports, at least 3 Apache bug reports, and I wrote the manual entry for a utility I used because man kept telling me it wasn't found - then I found out it was just missing from my system and the existing man page was much better.
So yes, I contribute. And yes, even I hate Unity. I suppose in a way it is living up to its name, though - Unity has a way of unifying everyone in their desire to return to GNOME 2, i.e. what just plain worked, period.
"So it's not a "feature", it's a bug."
Dude, these are Canadians. Only Americans would try the "feature, not a bug" trick.
And I say this is an American myself. Eh, nobody's perfect.
More like Blue Screen of Thirst.
Though really, they should just put Linux on these. My motto is "if it's good enough for NASA and a wristwatch, it's good enough for anything." Especially since you can install it on a dishwasher. Not all THAT different from a coke machine, really.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"Filling out the template was very easy. Following the process step by step was clear and easy to make changes or edits. Our photo was reproduced well and we love the invitation!"
"I was looking for a 50th anniversary invitation that wasn't too busy and one that I could add a photograph of my parents to and this card design fit the bill perfectly! Simple and elegant! The photo that I added came out beautifully and I am very pleased with the quality of the paper and the excellent customer service I received. Another bonus over other websites was a "proof" that you could view and make changes to before printing. Very nice little extra! I will definitely use Wedding Paper Divas again!"
"I designed this card for my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary using an image scanned from my parents' wedding album. I received a call from my best friend, who told me he'd been on the phone with my mother while she'd been going through her mail and opened the invite. Even though my folks already knew about the party, my friend reported she got all teary and choked up. So I think it was a hit! It was easy to use the website to preview and compare how various images would look [and some definitely work better in this long format than others, so it's helpful to have a few to choose from). The customer service representative I spoke to at one point was friendly and helpful; the timing of the product delivery was fast and accurate; and the product is reasonably priced."
"Great options with this card and love that Wedding Paper Divas offer great suggestions when personalizing it. We got so many comments about how original the card was. I liked the heaviness of the paper quality, but did wish the color was more vibrant (it appeared more dull than the original picture). Overall, I was beyond pleased with the purchase!"

CIDA-funded $10 million project (2003 – 2009) aims to address communicable disease prevention and control in vulnerable popluations.
The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) is the executing agency for this Program, which supports the prevention and control of the most widespread communicable diseases for girls, boys, women, and men in South America.
The PCPCD was initiated in five countries (Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Venezuela) and includes five diseases and/or disease strategies: Chagas disease, dengue, Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) strategy, sexually transmitted infections (syphilis and congenital syphilis), tuberculosis (TB), and the cross cutting component of gender equality. The intent of the Program is to reach vulnerable and hard to reach populations in the target countries to address program gaps in communicable disease prevention and control using recognized global and/or regional strategies.
The PCPCD addresses the following MDGs and contributes to their national achievement in the participating countries through the execution of its programmed activities:
MDG3: Promote gender equality and empower women
MDG4: Reduce child mortality
MDG5: Improve maternal health
MDG6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other diseases
PCPCD Components PAHO is working closely with national counterparts in each of the participating countries to achieve the following objectives:
Tuberculosis activities in Colombia
To implement the DOTS strategy for TB control among indigenous populations in Colombia using a community participation model. IMCI actions were incorporated in 2006 with the development of an integrated TB/IMCI program.
Chagas Disease activities in Ecuador, Paraguay and Peru
To design and implement a surveillance system for Triatoma infestans, the vector of Chagas disease, with active community participation including schools in endemic areas of Paraguay; to strengthen vector control and community based surveillance in the Southern Region of Peru (Arequipa, Moquegua and Tacna); and, to strengthen epidemiological and entomological surveillance of Chagas disease with community participation in the provinces of El Oro, Loja and Manabi in Ecuador.
The PCPCD actions are based on the recommendations of the Intergovernmental Commission for the Elimination of Triatoma infestans and the Interruption of Blood-borne Transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi of the Southern Cone Initiative (INCOSUR).
Dengue activities in Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, and Venezuela
To promote the adoption of the Integrated Management Strategy for dengue prevention and control (PAHO Directing Council Resolution CD44.R9) and the development of national integrated dengue plans. Support is provided for the implementation of the social communication and epidemiological and entomological surveillance components of the Strategy (EGI-Dengue in Spanish).
STI activities in Paraguay
To strengthen the capacity to expand the prevention and control of sexually transmitted infections, with special attention to gender issues and socioeconomic status. The PCPCD actions are focused on syphilis and congenital syphilis and are contributing to the national effort to eliminate congenital syphilis at country level.
IMCI activities in Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, and Peru.
To introduce changes in the academic curricula of health professions (nursing, medicine, public health) in target areas in order to include the principles of IMCI and improve primary health care services to reduce mortality from diseases and health problems in children under 5 years of age. Community IMCI activities were added in all countries in 2006 based on identified country priorities. The social actor community model implemented in these countries promotes a bottom up approach with early involvement of all community members. It works at the national, local, and household levels to increase the coverage of community based interventions by using a combination of outreach services, family, and social actor participation.
Integrated Health Program in the Paraguayan Chaco, Boquerón
The integrated approach of this program addresses the health priorities of the population and makes more effective use of limited human resources using a primary health care approach in the participating communities.
Gender Equality
The PCPCD includes a gender equality cross cutting component aimed at promoting gender awareness in communicable diseases among health professionals that involves gender sensitivity training and analysis of health data and the integration of a gender approach in program planning and implementation in Paraguay and Peru.

Texas A&M and running back Brandon Williams got the news they expected yesterday when the NCAA officially denied the former Oklahoma Sooner a hardship waiver. Instead of playing immediately for the Aggies, the sophomore will redshirt.
Williams played as a true freshman at OU last year, so he'll have three years of eligibility remaining when he returns. His request for a waiver was initially turned down on August 2nd, but A&M appealed. Now that appeal has been shot down, too. But with Christine Michael back as the starter and five-star freshman Trey Williams in the running back corps, the denied waiver shouldn't hurt too much. Unless the Aggies have a ton of bad luck with injuries.
Kevin Sumlin said via statement: "We appreciate the NCAA's consideration of our appeal in the case of Brandon Williams. We knew this was a possibility and Brandon will continue to work out with our team and help our team get better. We look forward to him playing in maroon and white in 2013."
As for Michael, the Aggies' starter, he's not lacking confidence as his team enters SEC play. "All I know is I'm going to go out there and play with passion and aggression and play as if I'm the best running back," he told The Houston Chronicle. "Not just in this league, but going into the NFL."
(A sidenote to A&M fans… we're currently working on an overall redesign of the site and for some reason the Aggie team page just doesn't want to accept stories at the moment. Yes, any A&M-related material will appear on the homepage, but please bear with us as we try to exorcise the ghosts from our Aggie-page machine.)

The age-old tradition of canning is a fun and easy way to turn fresh produce into homemade pickles and preserves. To start, you first have to sterilize your canning jars. Here's how:
Step 1: Choose the right glass jars. The USDA recommends using tempered-glass jars free of cracks or nicks. Look for ones that have a two-part vacuum cap consisting of a flat, gasket-lined metal lid and a metal screw band. (Note: The flat metal lid is not reusable.) We like Ball jars, which you can buy on amazon.com.
Step 2: Wash the jars, lids, and bands thoroughly in hot soapy water and rinse.
Step 3: Place empty jars in a large pot, right side up, and completely cover them in water.
Step 4: Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, and boil for 15 minutes.
Step 5: Turn off the heat. Add the canning lids to the pot, along with the grasping ends (but not the handle) of the tongs you will use to handle them later. Leave in water for at least 10 minutes and up to an hour.
Step 6: As you are ready to fill each jar, use tongs to remove the jars. Pour out the water, and set the jar, open-side up, on a clean paper towel for one minute. While the jars are still hot, fill them with warm ingredients. (Adding hot ingredients to a cool jar may cause the jar to crack.) Use tongs to remove lids, then seal the jars.

Favorite Shoe to Skate In
Robert Mrdutt
Member since
The Vans Half Cab are my favorite skate shoe. They have a great classic style to them and lightweight feel, which leads to better board control. The only downside to the Half Cab shoe is with serious amounts of everday skating, its only gonna last around a month. Bottomline: My Favorite Skate Shoe
ALL-TIME greatest shoe's
Member since
These are the best shoe's ever made, classic good looks, no crazy graphic's just one of the best shoes ever made. Over the years I've tried others but always come back to the half cab, I've had them in every color but of course black is classic.
Best shoe for tranny ever!
Christian Paul
Member since
These give you all the ankle protection that you need, and they are full of support and are really comfortable on landings and drops. They are really durable and you can shred the hell out of them, they will last a long time. If you are vert skating, put a piece of duct tape over the toe for when you bail and they will last forever.

Create a relaxing and beautiful haven with these trendy bedroom tips; add color and texture with bedding and window treatments. Add character with furniture, and light and sparkle with mirrors.
If you have been following The Trendy Home you know I love to bring you pictures of beautiful homes and great decorating ideas that you can incorporate into your own Trendy Home. Hope you enjoy these new pictures, and some old favorites.
A Touch of Class: I found this one on Better Homes and Gardens, Architectural relics, such as this dramatic old bar mirror to make a great beautiful headboard. The oversize scale of the piece works in this room because the mirror reflects so much light, giving the appearance of spaciousness. White matelasse linens add interesting texture while allowing the mirror to shine.
Do you live by the Beach? This next picture is a beautiful "Beachy" bedroom that is not overdone. The white beaded boards and navy walls make a beautiful frame for this handsome bedroom inspired by the beach. Shell artwork and accessories reinforce the theme but it's not over the top. Beautiful, elegant, and inviting. Check out our Black and White Bed in a Bag by Royal's Hotel Collection to help you achieve the same look as in the picture below.
When Two Bed are better than one! I love this look, can you tell which one is the Ladies Bed, and which one is the Mens? Ruffled Shams vs Tailored Shams is a nice little decorating tip to separate the sexes. Twin beds aligned along the same wall naturally lend themselves to a symmetrical scheme — are always pleasing to the eye. Underscore the effect by dressing the beds with matching bedding and treating the wall space above the headboards in the same manner. Anchor the center of the duo with a singe table for this beautiful look.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this blog, what did you take away from it and did it inspire you to make any changes in your home?
Thank You and come visit us also at The Trendy Bed, and remember to make your home:

Regirock sits in a decent place within the NU metagame, boasting the most physical bulk and checking many of NU's top-tier physical threats, such as Swellow, Kangaskhan, and Braviary, with its mono-Rock typing. Furthermore, it is equipped with a great Attack stat, making it an effective, hard-hitting tank. Along with its access to a variety of support options, Regirock is undeniably a tough threat to take down without strong super effective STAB attacks. However, Regirock does come with evident flaws, most notably its lack of reliable recovery. This makes it vulnerable to wear and tear, eventually succumbing to the damage it's meant to be taking. On top of that, the same Rock typing that makes Regirock a great answer to the sweepers mentioned above leaves it with weaknesses to common Water-, Grass-, Ground-, and Fighting-type attacks. Due to this, many powerful attackers, such as Samurott, Exeggutor, Golurk, and Sawk, can greatly hinder Regirock's performance.
This is Regirock's best set in the current metagame. With its excellent defensive capabilities and viable offensive presence, Regirock makes a great Stealth Rock user and status spreader for any kind of team. Stone Edge hits very hard off of Regirock's high Attack stat, 2HKOing many non-physically defensive Pokemon at the least. However, if power isn't an issue, Rock Slide is still a great alternative given its higher PP and accuracy. Drain Punch provides fantastic coverage alongside Regirock's Rock-type attack of choice, smacking the likes of Bastiodon, Probopass, and Lickilicky hard. It also provides beneficial recovery, something Regirock lacks a reliable source of. The last slot is dedicated to Regirock's status move of choice. Toxic is great for crippling Pokemon Regirock has a hard time getting by, such as Golurk, Alomomola, and Tangela, while Thunder Wave works great for hampering Regirock's prominent switch-ins, such as Sawk and Primeape, accommodates for its middling Speed, and pairs excellently with Rock Slide's flinch chance.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Regirock is equipped with an enormous movepool, but unfortunately it is flooded with underwhelming options. A RestTalk set can be used to compensate for Regirock's lack of recovery and, when paired with Curse, can be a decent mono-attacker with Rock Slide; however, Regirock's common weaknesses can make this difficult to execute. It's also possible to utilize a Chesto Berry with Rest to prevent being setup fodder from sleeping. A specially defensive EV spread is an effective alternative if you wish Regirock to check special attackers, such as Eelektross, Zebstrika, and Haunter, better. Regirock also has access to a variety of special attacks, such as Earth Power, Focus Blast, Charge Beam, Thunderbolt, and more, but its pitiful Special Attack makes them unusable. The elemental punches are available for use and hit certain Pokemon that can be an issue, such as Fire Punch for Bronzor and Metang, ThunderPunch for Alomomola, and Ice Punch for Tangela, but these punches are typically not strong enough to make running them worthwhile and Stone Edge hits just as hard normally as they do super effectively. Hammer Arm and Superpower can be used for a stronger Fighting-type attack, but Drain Punch is a lot more beneficial, as it hits decently enough and replenishes some of Regirock's HP. Earthquake is also an alternative to Drain Punch to have the EdgeQuake combination, but Drain Punch already hits almost everything that Earthquake would be used for and has better overall coverage. Explosion can be used to surprise an unsuspecting opponent and can work on a Custap Berry set; however, Golem and Gigalith run it better and if you do choose to use it, you sacrifice your Normal- and Flying-type check. Due to Regirock's great bulk, it can be a reliable Sunny Day or Gravity supporter. Lastly, Regirock can execute a Swagger + Psych Up tactic, but this is generally not worth it given how unreliable it is.
Checks and Counters
Golurk is the number one Regirock counter. It's immune to Drain Punch and Thunder Wave, and packs a resistance to Regirock's STAB attacks, allowing it to freely switch in and pulverize Regirock with a STAB Earthquake, DynamicPunch, or even Drain Punch of its own. Toxic is all that Golurk needs to watch out for.
Anything with enough Defense generally works well against Regirock, being able to sponge its attacks and set up on it. Garbodor can spill layers of Toxic Spikes or Spikes, Alomomola can Toxic stall it, Tangela can sap it with Giga Drain, and Golem can smash it with its STAB Earthquake, among others; however, they must be cautious of Regirock carrying status. Regirock's also susceptible to burn and poison status, and without any form of reliable recovery, the residual damage will often overwhelm it.
Strong attackers that carry STAB super effective moves can break through Regirock's defenses. These include Sawk, Primeape, Seismitoad, Gorebyss, and Exeggutor. Furthermore, a number of Pokemon can set up against it, such as Bulk Up Gurdurr and Throh, who both don't mind status thanks to their Guts ability; Substitute + Nasty Plot Misdreavus, who can block status ailments and is bulky enough to take hits; and Swords Dance Samurott, who's also not significantly hampered by status.
Regirock receives Sturdy from the Dream World. While Sturdy has its merits, Clear Body's ability to prevent stat drops is often more beneficial. Due to Regirock's superb bulk, it is almost impossible to OHKO anyway, so Sturdy offers little to Regirock.

Start your day with a healthy breakfast and a hot cup of coffee from The Corner Store. Though our reputation has been built around afternoon drinking and great burgers, our breakfast burritos and coffee shop are catching up quickly. The Corner Store has been a staple for Apres Ski action in Park City for over 30 years. With live music 4-6 days a week and a full bar there is no better place in Utah to relax after a long day on the slopes. Indoors or outside on the patio The Corner Store is the most affordable place to eat and drink you will find on a ski vacation.

By natural anne
from montreal
The front is faux fur which is soft. The back is made of some black material which looks cheap.The collar does not lay properly. The interfacing of the zipper sticks out if the vest is not closed.Very poor quality!
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

T-box concept to capture wind energy from trains
Some background information on why the designers created the T-box
Article Summary
As anyone living near railway tracks will tell you, speeding trains generate quite a bit of wind as they whoosh past. Industrial designers Qian Jiang and Alessandro Leonetti Luparini have come up with a device that's installed between the sleepers on a track, and as the train passes overhead, the wind drives a turbine to generate electricity. The T-box devices could be placed along railway or subway lines, and make good use of an otherwise wasted resource.

Port Productivity
About the JOC Port Productivity Rankings
The JOC Port Productivity rankings included in this section are based on seven rigidly defined elements provided by 17 participating carriers. Other data points such as operating time, crane density, total time a ship is in port and crane productivity will be added later.
The data points for this report are vessel name, terminal name, port city, port country, berth arrival, berth departure and number of moves (including lifts on, lifts off and re-stows). Berth arrival and departure refer to "lines down" and "lines up" — that is, the actual arrival and departure of the ship at the berth. The calculation of moves per hour between these two times is referred to as unadjusted gross berth productivity.
It is the same calculation for all 400 terminals and 600 ports the JOC evaluates, allowing for a basic apples-to-apples comparison globally. The data enters a data warehouse in standardized format so that it's accessible for reports, rankings, analysis and other uses.
Interaction with global carriers resulted in data whose definitions are consistent across all carriers. Rankings were determined by analyzing nearly 65,000 port calls in the first half of 2013.
Productivity is defined as the average of the gross moves per hour for each call recorded last year.
Gross moves per hour for a single vessel call is defined as the total container moves (onload, offload and repositioning) divided by the number of hours for which the vessel is at berth.

Cruise control automatically regulates the speed of your vehicle for added driver comfort on longer journeys. It can be used at speeds between 30 and 240 km/h and is operated using a button on one of the control stalks.
Standard on all Cayenne models.
Optional on all Cayenne models, adaptive cruise control regulates the speed of your vehicle in line with that of the vehicle in front. To do that, the system uses a radar sensor in the central air intake to monitor the road up to 200 m ahead.
If you approach another vehicle that is travelling slower than your selected cruising speed, the system slows the engine or gently applies the brakes. This continues until the distance that you have preset is maintained. If heavier braking is required, the driver has to actively intervene. Your vehicle will now follow the one in front at a reduced speed.
If the other vehicle decelerates further, adaptive cruise control will continue to reduce your speed – even down to a halt. When the road ahead is free once more, the car automatically returns to your selected cruising speed between 30 and 210 km/h. To pull away after an automatic stop, simply use the control lever or depress the accelerator pedal.
If selected by the driver, the integrated Stop & Go function automatically applies the brakes and then drives off again in congested traffic.
For added safety, the system also features integrated Porsche Active Safe (PAS). The system visually and audibly alerts the driver in the event of a sudden decrease in distance and briefly tugs on the brakes. It can also intervene in the braking process and apply increased braking pressure through to all-out emergency braking, if required.
Optional for all Cayenne models.

1215 Bald Eagle Drive, Marco, FL
Snook Inn
1215 Bald Eagle Drive
Marco, FL
Phone: 239-394-3313
Email: email@example.com
Snook Inn is the type of restaurant that regular visitors to Marco Island make a point to visit after spending the day on the beach. The atmosphere is laid back and the diners can watch a spectacular view of the ...More about Snook Inn »
Behind the bar at the Snook Inn, bartender Tommy Conroy, in a faded, rolled-up-sleeved Hawaiian print shirt, khaki cargo shorts and black sneakers, mixes up drinks for his customers. With "My Girl" strumming from an entertainer's guitar out on the tiki bar-style stage, Conroy quickly shuttles from patron to patron, serving up frozen treats, ice-cold beer and specialty cocktails.
The bartender splashes a little coconut rum on his cheeks, like aftershave, to get a rise out of a few new customers. "This is my office," Conroy says. "It's relaxing, even when there's three people deep and it's getting crazy. I can kind of look outside on the river, listen to the music, and it keeps me calm amidst the chaos."
Although Conroy serves up a variety of specialty drinks, he said happy hour at the bar is the true special, because it includes half-priced drinks on even their top shelf products. "Everything half-price? That's a specialty drink!" Conroy says.
Reminiscent of his early career, Conroy makes a specialty drink for both men and women. The men get a spinoff of the Texas Two-Step, which is a shot of tequila, a Bloody Mary chaser and a beer. Then, to make it Florida-style, Conroy swaps the Bloody Mary chaser with pineapple or orange juice.
For the females, Conroy said, "You want to make it kind of fruity and easy for girls to drink." That come is the form of the Tahitian Bomb, a twist on a traditional Bay Breeze, using dark rum and a coconut rum floater.
Conroy invented the drink while vacationing on a cruise ship. He kept asking bartenders to make a Bay Breeze with dark rum and a pina colada floater on top, but each time around, he received a different drink. Finally, he approached a Jamaican bartender, who asked why he didn't just order a coconut rum floater on top.
"Oh my God, I'm a bartender, I should have figured that out," Conroy remembers telling him.
He let a customer name it the Tahitian Bomb. Don't expect to find the drink on the menu though. "I don't know if that's a Snook Inn specialty or a Tom specialty," Conroy jokes. "I usually suggest a mango daiquiri with a floater on it. Some people don't like a frozen drink, so it's good to have a couple of specialty drinks to toss around."
Conroy, 52, moved to Marco Island 12 years ago from Texas, where he tended bar through college at Texas Tech in the 1980s. Then, he took a break from bartending and delved into the real estate business for about four years. After coming to the Island on vacation 12 years ago, he was offered a bartending job at the Snook Inn and never looked back. "I like hanging out with the people. There's a lot of fun people down here," Conroy says. "And, when I'm working at night, it frees me up for golfing, boating, fishing – all that stuff you can do down here."
