text: 1 So it may be the best rugby union game on xbox 360...teabag23 | 21/02/2014 | See all teabag23's reviews (2)But boy should the producers be ashamed. There is so much wrong with this game, however,short versionthere is little flow to the game, extremely frustrating, and a poor details (game and graphics).longer versionwhat you can do, in terms of competitions, tournaments, creating players, is all great. But actually playing the game is terrible.For one thing, there is no dive button for the try line, so you find yourself ambling over the line repeatedly tapping the score button, only sometimes for the tacklers to grab onto and eventually push you out.The defence is terrible, they don't line up properly in defence (playing as one of the top teams here, so not because of a weak team), so you have massive gaps in the middle as they mark the winger but not the centres.There was one instance where one of the opposing players ran into touch with the ball and a little banner came up to say lineout signalled, then the player passed the ball back into play to his own player, and play continued.Kicking for goal is incredibly difficult, totally pot luck as to whether you get it on target or not (regardless if it is in front of the posts or not).The offload aspect is good in principle, but the opposing teams have spells where there are so many offload in tackles, its like watching a rugby league game on times 32 fast forward, ridiculous.The loading time between bits is stupid. I dont mean loading the game, or waiting for the game to start. I mean, actually IN THE game, whenever there is a break for lineout, try, kick, scrum etc, there is a load screen, a short interval of one of a player doing something, probably just taking an over-emphatic drink from a water bottle 2 minutes into the game after kicking for touch, and then about 10/15 seconds later, you're back into it.When youre doing kicking, its difficult to add any further (or less distance) on it. So you are limited (plus there doesn't appear to be much difference in the game between a fly half kicking or prop).At breakdowns, its not as if the scrum half will wait at the back, oh no, theyll go into the ruck (INSTEAD of the forward stood next to him), leaving the prop to pass it out to the backs.Theres no control over the backs, in terms of getting the fly half to drop in for a drop kick effort, or get runners to cut inside, or even get a decent backline sorted- theyre pretty much flat, so as soon as they get the ball, they're either being tackled or you have to pass before its even got to him.When there hasnt been a break in play for a bit, your players just stop at the breakdown, in the opponents half, so offside, taking them out of the game, giving the other team either advantage or you just keep tapping for another player who was onside.The commentary. I have played 6/7 games, and at the start of half of them, they have given me the stat that the first game of rugby union was played between England and Scotland in 1871. I mean, at least I know that now. But I was playing as Leicester, not England or Scotland.I can get past the idea that all the players look like theyve been modelled on figures from a book on Neanderthals, I dont care that the international teams don't have proper licensing (the clubs teams do however), but at least make the game play decent.It is such a shame that still to this date, the best rugby game is Jonah Lomu Rugby which came out in 1997. Seriously guys, just take everything you had for that game, update the graphics, create a few more players, and put the premiership format in there and youre onto a winner.On the back of the game, it states 12 years in the making, what I can only guess they have been doing in those 12 years, I cant write down in this review.

This bag is wonderful in the way pockets are organized. My only criticsm is that the leather used is poor quality rather than the "supple top grain" leather stated in the copy.

Bag was beautiful, just not a true black bag. It did not match the other black leather bags that I have bought from Hammacher Schlemmer before.

Episode Information
People who would never tolerate any other obvious form of prejudice often make an exception for accents. Something sounds smart in a British accent and dumb in a Southern accent, right?
On the other hand, there's something genuinely funny about accents. And the more you know about them, the funnier it gets. Until Monty Python came along with their dazzling kaleidoscope of Yorkshiremen, Cockney gangsters, upper class twits and drunken Australian philosophy professors, I didn't appreciate how many British-derived accents and dialects there are. To this day I think some of their routines would be even funnier to me if I had a keen appreciation of how people from Rutland sound.
Here in America, the Northern accent versus the Southern may actually be the sharpest reminder of how some of us still can't quite believe this is all one country.
So, today, accents. We'll get serious about them. Except when we're fooling around.
You can join the conversation. Leave comments below or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Listener E-mail from CLS
I was really looking forward to this "accent" show. But it really turned out to be disappointing. The British woman you have on the show, well, I don't understand why you have her. Yes she's British, but that's all she can do accent wise. Her American accent was just terrible, even her British accent sounds clumsy. You should have gotten any of the British actors, they switch in a heart beat and you can never tell. And I thought you were going to have someone showcase a variety of accents.
Anyways, I like your show, but next time, really get guests who are good at what they do.
Listener E-mail from Lee
A whole show on accents? Really? This is almost as bad as the whole hour devoted to tea. Or my personal favorite train wreck, the one when you were getting voice lessons. I understand there is a place for light fluffy stuff, rare and strange hobbies, and with - I would venture to guess - fairly little interest in the majority of the WNPR community, but perhaps you can consolidate into like a 10-15 minute segments and have a fluff show. But really, a whole hour devoted to accents? Once again I'm bored and am forced to turn off the radio.
I'm confused as to what the purpose or theme of your show? Your blog has an interesting commentary on Connecticut politics, which would be certainly more interesting to hear about than accents and tea. What is your goal in your show?
May I make some suggestions? Why don't you incorporate more of your commentary on Connecticut politics. Or you have a lot of moms listening to your show at this hour, why not incorporate some shows that would appeal to the parenting community? Like the new advancements in education, understanding teens or the growth of a homeschooling community in Connecticut.
Please - more substance, less fluff that would be better suited for a private cocktail party conversation, rather than the public radio forum.
Listener E-mail from Martha
Listener E-mail from Paul
Having been an actor (who learned a number of dialects) I am a HUGE fan of dialects. The show today was the very best!
Last week tubas, this week dialects. I've died and gone to WNPR.

As we see here, Mimi's body seems limp and Quadroplegic-like.
When the leftover heroes, or "The Leftovers" if you would, were fighting Him,
Mimi threw a stone at the golem. She used her arms.
Therefore, the period of time between this flashback and the fight with Him must be
long enough that Mimi regained movement and strength in her arms.
Because of this, we can conclude one of two things.
1) Him lanches his attack on the world, and Mimi, much later and Mimi
stayed off the Nymphilim for a time before that for some reason. (Improbable though Possible)
2) Him lanches his attack now and the heroes play keep away with Him
until Mimi gained some of her strength back. (Probable)

Payday loan lenders usually mortgage concerning $100 and $1500, based on your earnings and proficiency to repay the personal fast cash. A very good gauge of how much a cash-loan lender will allow you to definitely borrow at anybody time is always to get your weekly money and divide it by three. For instance if I had been earning $600 weekly my highest borrowing capability could possibly be approximately $200. What this means is I could borrow relating to $100 and $200 since the minimum amount mortgage total is generally established at $100

Congrats on the interview and write-up. That should help get you started quickly. Is the Health Dept. cooperating or dragging their feet?
i assume it's the prep kitchen that the health department is concentrating on?
Very cool. I wish you the best of luck. I can't wait to ogle on the OPP!
Very cool and good luck. Also no offense but when I saw the title I thought it was going to be bloody pizza or something when I read "gore" made.

Mulino Marino Coarse Organic Yellow Corn Meal - 1kg
Country of Origin: Italy
Region: Piedmont
City / Village: Cossano Belbo
Produced by the Marino family in the town of Cossano Belbo, in the Piedmont region of Italy. Mulino Marino uses exclusively organic grains for their flours. For everything but their type 0 and type 00 flours, they use ancient millstones that have been passed down from generation to generation. The stone grinding preserves essential components that add to nutritional value and flavor of the flours.
Their cornmeal is ground from otto file corn or 8 row flint corn which is an heirloom variety prized for its beautiful golden color and wonderfully deep aroma and flavor.
The coarse grind of this cornmeal provides a crunchy texture and a pronounced corn flavor. Use this to make the traditional Italian polenta. It can be prepared in as little as 45 minutes but traditionalists will tell you that the best flavor comes from very slow cooking and constant stirring for 90 minutes (open fire and copper pot don't hurt either!). Use 200 g. of corn meal per liter of water.

Results tagged ' Orlando Magic '
Van Gundys' Visit
Despite the fact that Stan and Jeff Van Gundy have made their names in basketball, the brothers' affection for a game that uses a much smaller ball was evident with their visit to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum on Wednesday.
"We've been meaning to come here for awhile," said Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy, who also brought with him his 16-year-old son Michael. "With work schedules and we both have families and other things around it was hard, but finally Jeff just said, 'Get a date and I'll go,' so we came up with a date."
While Stan was making his first visit to Cooperstown, Jeff Van Gundy, who coached the New York Knicks and Houston Rockets prior to his current gig broadcasting the NBA for ABC/ESPN, thinks he might have come years ago, adding, "I think I was here before once when I was in high school but now I'm not totally clear."
But what was clear was how much the siblings were enjoying their Hall of Fame visit.
"It's just unbelievable," Stan Van Gundy said. "We've been baseball fans since we were little kids and been meaning to come here for years and years and years. It's incredible how much stuff is here and how much history is here. You really feel connected to it. There's just an overwhelming amount of … things."
With a father who was a basketball coach, the Van Gundy brothers were exposed to that game from an early age. But as Stan explained, baseball brought with it a special family dynamic.
"We're all involved in basketball and so we weren't really together at a lot of games. We were watching my dad's team or watching Jeff play a game or watching me play a game or whatever, but baseball's something you can do together," Stan said. "And it's been the same way with me and my son. He may come to my games or I might go to his games but we're rarely at a basketball game together. Baseball we can share. It's a family experience. I remember going to baseball games with my family, so I think that's been a big part of it."
For Jeff Van Gundy, an A's fan whose family lived in the Bay area in the 1970s, an early baseball memory comes from the 1972 World Series between Oakland pitcher Rollie Fingers and Reds batter Johnny Bench.
"I still remember vividly (A's manager) Dick Williams walking out to the mound and calling for an intentional walk and they throw the strike. It was one of the great memories of my life," Jeff said. "And I can still remember that we used to go out for a dollar and sit in the bleachers (in Oakland)."
Having lived in Florida for many years, Stan Van Gundy now roots for the Marlins.
"The 2003 World Series with the Marlins, we were living in Miami and got to know some of those guys," Stan said. "And probably my biggest baseball memory is Jeff Conine throwing J.T. Snow out at home plate in the first round of the playoffs. The only time a play at the plate ended a series. And J.T. Snow tries to run Pudge Rodriguez over and he comes up with the ball.
"Baseball's so many memories for all of us. And to be here, where there's memories from the entire history of the game… It's really overwhelming."
While the National Football League settled its lockout this week, the National Baseball Association is currently embroiled on one of its own. When asked for their thoughts on the current impasse, Stan Van Gundy politely demurred, explaining that he could be fined by the league for making a comment. But brother Jeff was under no restrictions.
"I think it'll work out eventually," Jeff said. "Obviously it'll involve compromise, the owners will win, and it will start late. And it will harm everybody and everything. What's always forgotten in these is the person who is just striving to live paycheck to paycheck and gotten laid off. That's the unfortunate thing about all these things. We talk about what's in it for the owners or for the players but we often forget so many of the other people that are impacted by these types of lockouts."

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Dr. James Perkins, Westminster College professor emeritus of English, co-edited a volume of letters written in the last years of the life of author Robert Penn Warren.
Perkins was co-editor of Selected Letters of Robert Penn Warren, Vol. 6: Toward Sunset, at Great Height, 1980-1989. This volume, under the general editorship of Dr. William Bedford Clark of Texas A & M University, covers the last period of Warren's personal and professional life: he published three volumes of poetry, one nonfiction book, and a memoir, wrote correspondence about his thoughts on his declining health, and communicated with young poets.
Perkins's colleague and co-editor, Dr. Randy Hendricks, is a professor of English and dean of the College of Arts and Humanities at the University of West Georgia. Perkins and Hendricks also edited volumes 3, 4 and 5 of the Selected Letters of Robert Penn Warren as well as For the Record: A Robert Drake Reader and David Madden: A Writer for All Genres.
Perkins, who has been with Westminster College since 1973, earned an undergraduate degree from Centre College, a master's from Miami University, and Ph.D. from the University of Tennessee.
Perkins taught creative writing courses at Westminster for 30 years. During the fall term of 1998, he was a Fulbright Visiting Professor at Seoul National University in Korea. Perkins earned the 2006 Westminster College Distinguished Faculty Award and was previously honored as a Henderson Lecturer and a McCandless Fellow. His publications include: The Cass Mastern Material: The Core of Robert Penn Warren's "All the King's Men"; Snakes, Butterbeans, and the Discovery of Electricity, a short story collection; and Southern Writers at Century's End, co-edited with Jeffrey J. Folks.

Weeks after the announcement that Hank Groff, formerly the director of the dealer program at Guardian Protection Services, was tapped to run the partner program at Dynamark, Guardian has made a hiring of its own.
The super-regional, based in Warrendale, Pa., hired Brian Helt to be its new VP of the authorized dealer program, a newly created position, according to a company statement
A 15-year veteran of the industry, Helt comes to Guardian from Interlogix, where he held several sales leadership positions and managed departments dedicated to acquiring and developing business relationships with dealers.
Prior to Interlogix, Helt served in management roles at UTC Fire and Security and GE Security, while being the owner and operator of his own security business in Kansas City.
Helt has experience growing dealer programs, so it will be worth tracking what kind of impact his hiring has for the company, and to see what responsibilities he takes on in the new role. I'm also interested to see what the move means as far as Guardian's national footprint is concerned.
The Honeywell Connect2013 event, which took place November 8-10 in Los Angeles, was declared a success by all the dealers I spoke to.
Of course, dealers generally enjoy themselves at these conventions. There are networking events and parties, educational sessions and parties, awards and parties, speeches and more parties. You get the idea. Honeywell works hard to ensure that its dealers are treated well.
But this particular event was new; It's the is first time the manufacturer gathered all three dealer programs for one convention in one place: First Alert Professionals, CSS Dealers, and HIS dealers. So you've got resi-focused dealers, commercial installers and systems integrators. Honeywell pulled it off—that's what I heard.
The two general sessions featured Honeywell executives talking about priorities, trends, new products and initiatives. A handful of dealers from all three programs also gave 10-minute talks during the general sessions. Here are some highlights:
John Loud of LOUD Security, spoke about the builder market. It was something LOUD was heavily invested in pre-recession. Business dwindled during the recession, but has since been revamped and revived. Loud talked about the "LOUD way" his company rebuilt the new LOUD Builder Program. In the past 12 months, that program has generated $1 million in new revenue for LOUD Security and also helped generate a 72-percent increase in interactive services revenue.
Dave Hood of First Alarm sounded the alarm about going with the all-in-one L5100 panel. Tradition is good, but staying traditional means losing business, he said.
RFI's Brad Wilson, a systems integrator, does business in Silicon Valley with some of the most tech-savvy customers in the country. Wilson obviously has some insight into how security technology—and Honeywell dealer attitudes and priorities—need to progress. He talked about the importance of "building your bench" in the workplace, the advent and affect of the cloud on the security business, importance of RMR even in large systems integration projects, and how many technologies are coming down market, and fast.
Honeywell Security president Ron Rothman talked about sales and advised attendees to spend more time figuring out why you won the someone's business than analyzing why you lost another job. Think about this, he said, and then share what you learn with your employees.
Keynote speaker Roy Spence, of Southwest Airlines fame, talked about the need for thosein the room to reenergize their "entreprenuerial drive to get the 75 percent of the market [that does not have home security.]" He advised the group to think about "where your talent [in security] and the needs of the world intersect." That intersection, he said, is "peace of mind." The same way Southwest Airlines "democratized air travel," the security industry can "democratize peace-of-mind." He warned that if the security industry doesn't take this task to heart, someone else will.
Arturo Ramirez Jr. received the Honeywell Life Safety Award this year for rescuing a woman and four children from a fire. The award is always given by Larry King via video presentation. This year, Larry King presented the award in person. King said: "I couldn't be here in spirit, so I thought I'd come in person." Yup, it was Larry King Live this time.
Jeremy Bates of Bates Security talked about social media. It's part of the company's overall marketing plan. Bates Security engages in a number of social media but focuses its efforts on Facebook, and it hired a marketing specialist to oversee company efforts. A couple of interesting statistics: 46 percent of consumers turn to social media before making a purchase; 70 percent of people on social media don't post, they "lurk." Bates says he wants to ensure that those lurkers have plenty of information about Bates Security available to them via social media.
Todd Bertocchi of Safeguard Security discussed the benefit of managed and hosted service, making the analogy of security dealers moving "from being peddlers [of products] to partners." He said that "hosted systems create RMR, standalone systems do not."
Other product annoucements and initiatives announced at the show:
Total Connect with Voice. Honeywell had a little clubhouse outfitted like a livingroom with "Total Connect with Voice" at the Thursday night cocktail party. In a demonstration for some members of the media, Honeywell's David Gottlieb would say a command for the room to go into nighttime mode: Instantly shades drew shut, the television shut off and lights dimmed. When he issued the command for daytime mode, it all reversed. Very George Jetson.
Honeywell announced that it will have a Casi-Rusco migration solution. There's "a huge installed base, it's a huge opportunity for you," Honeywell's senior director of marketing, Alan Stoddard said.
Stoddard gave these details on the soon-to-be-released Honeywell LYNX Touch 7000/L5200: You can view video on display and connect 84 zones. It has a 7-inch display; two-way voice over wifi, and a number of other newer features.
Honeywell's Marek Robinson talked about how the manufactureris helping FAP, CSS and HIS dealers with demand creatioin. He said that in 2013 year to date, the Honeywell website has "generated 2,000 plus leads that its given to dealers. His goal is to "double that in 2014."
Robinson also described two new partnerships. Honeywell is launching a partner program in Atlanta where it will sell alarm systems from kiosks at Sprint stores. The pilot project will commence next month with Ackerman Security in Norcross, Ga. Honeywell declined to comment further on the deal at this point. I saw Ackerman's Jim Callahan at the event, and he promises to fill me in on details at a later date.
The other partnership is with LifeWay Christian Stores. The goal of this program, according to my notes, is to generate a whopping 40,000 leads for commercial facilities.
Honeywell this week released its new 6100 Series Custom Alpha and Fixed-Language Keypads—and it's great that the keypads will benefit dealers by giving customers a wider range of choices and saving installation time and money.
But as a boomer, I must confess that what jumped out at me is the fact that the keypad's display area is 32 percent larger and the words and icons easier to read. I'm not in marketing, but it seems to me that feature is a great way to promote these keypads to boomers. That's a group for whom security and home automation is important—but who also would like to be able to read the darn panel without having to hunt down their eyeglasses!
Here's more from Honeywell's Nov. 4 announcement:
Honeywell today released the 6100 Series Custom Alpha and Fixed-Language Keypads, giving security dealers a broader portfolio to accommodate a range of homeowner budgets and lifestyles. The Custom Alpha keypads feature VISTA Intelligent Programming (VIP)—an intuitive, menu-based programming option for the most common functions that helps reduce installation time and labor costs. VIP is currently available with Honeywell's VISTA-20P control panels.
Easy-to-use graphics and a symmetrical design give the 6100 Series the same look and feel as Honeywell's home and business controllers with touchscreen displays. The seven-model suite offers larger screens with light, neutral backlighting that blends with most interiors. The devices occupy less wall space while providing 32-percent larger display areas with bold fonts and graphic icons, which are ideal for the elderly or visually impaired. Additionally, function and arming keys provide quick set-up and easier use. These new models offer voice, integrated RF or a hardwired zone to best meet the needs of the installation, and the homeowner's budget.
I'm getting ready for a quick trip to the West Coast for the HoneywellConnect 2013 event, which is taking place Nov. 7-10 in Los Angeles. This is a debut event for Honeywell, combining what used to be its First Alert Professional conference with events it did with its CSS and HIS dealers. I heard they're expecting more than 800 people. I'm looking forward to catching up with Security Systems News' readers that fall into all of those categories.
I was just checking out the App for the program. I'm impressed. The App includes descriptions and locations for the educational sessions and other events and a list of attendees. It also allows you to set up a personal schedule. What I like the best, however, is it allows you to send a message to another attendee from the App itself. Great idea. If you're reading this and have news to share, send me a message via the App.
The educational sessions at FAP have always been well attended and interactive, and I'm assuming Connect2013's will be as well. I'm looking forward to these sessions in particular: Connected Home/Connected Small Business; Integated Systems Revenue Opportunities; Strategic Business Planning; Demand Creation; 2G to 4G Migration; Grant Writing; Business Metrics; The Right Acquisition Strategy; Server Virtualization; Hosted Video; Regulatory Compliance Management; and Vertical Market Success.
I'll be blogging and tweeting during the event. Look for updates here Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Going to be a busy three days.
Some hiring news surfaced this week from north of the border. Yorkton, Saskatchewan-based SecurTek, which has three central stations in Canada and commercial and residential accounts in several provinces, hired Darrell Jones to be its new president and CEO, the company announced in a news release.
Jones comes to the SecurTek, a subsidiary of SaskTel, a Canadian telecom company, from outside the industry. He worked previously at the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation, and his background also includes active involvement as a board member with the Real Estate Institute of Manitoba.
He'll now be at the helm of a company with a dealer network of 150 partners, in retail, wholesale monitoring and security servicing. In addition to its commercial and residential security offerings, SecurTek provides video and medical monitoring.
"Darrell has established strong and positive working relationships with the non-profit sector, stakeholder organizations, and the private sector in his role with the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation," Ron Styles, SaskTel President and CEO, said in a news release. "Darrell will be a strong addition to the SecurTek team and I'm confident under his leadership SecurTek will continue to grow and thrive."
In the coming week I hope to speak with Jones about the transition to the security industry, and to explore how his background in real estate could be a boon to someone hoping to expand the company's residential and commercial account bases.
Sharon Shaw, who is well known in the security industry as an evangelist of managed services, a skilled trainer and director of education, has taken on a new role at Tech Systems Inc, an Atlanta-based systems integrator.
Shaw was formerly president of Integrator Support, and director of education for PSA Security. (She's also part of my TechSec Advisory board. )
Here's a link to a story I wrote about Tech Systems Inc. in January. TSI appears to be a great fit for Shaw's skills. She told me she was drawn to the company's "service-centric culture." The services piece—managed as well as services in general—is something Shaw knows well. And it's not an overstatement to say that TSI is big into service. When I did that story in January, Larry Simmons, TSI VP of client services, told me that if a customer is not interested in "a strong service offering, we don't waste resources [on that job]." As a result, TSI in January was "very close to achieving our goal of being able to cover 100 percent of our operating costs [with] recurring revenue."
AT TSI, If service techs want to leave a job site without completing a service call for any reason, the request must be approved by a regional manager, a director, and ultimately by the CEO or Simmons before that tech may leave the job without finishing. TSI's service program is called FOCUS, and the company reports some impressive results. "In 2012, TSI responded to 16,467 FOCUS-related service calls. We only failed to either achieve response time or functionality 30 times, giving TSI a 99.99 percent success rate. Our success rate has not dropped below 99.7 percent over the past three years," Simmons said.
In her new role as Client Development Manager, Shaw will develop continuing education programs for Tech Systems' customers and staff. The idea is to have a "quality communications programs and [see that there's] a continuing stream of relevant information so everyone is informed and when they're making decisions, they have the best tools and resources available to them," she told me.
Tech Systems has 164 employees across the country. Headquartered here, it has other brick-and-mortar offices in North Carolina and California. Employees elsewhere work from virtual offices.
Congratulations to Shaw, and kudos to TSI for a smart hire.
The good news keeps on coming from SAFE Security. I just wrote recently how the San Ramon, Calif.-based company—celebrating its silver anniversary this year—has doubled in size. Now, SAFE has announced this week that it has acquired more than 16,000 accounts, representing $650,000 in RMR.
The new accounts are CastleRock Security residential and commercial alarm monitoring subscriber accounts.
"These accounts fit very nicely into our U.S. and Canada footprint," Paul Sargenti, SAFE president, CEO and founder, said in a prepared statement in an Oct. 29 news release. "With this acquisition we have more than doubled our account base since 2012. We are well equipped to assimilate them and look forward to providing the highest standard in security services to these new subscribers."
Sargenti added, "SAFE is firmly positioned as a full service alarm company and this purchase complements our other growing revenue channels."
The company says it also is seeing strong organic growth from its dealer program, SAFE Dealer Network.
Some intriguing financial news out of the Monitronics/Ascent Capital camp. Ascent Capital Group's largest direct stockholder, media mogul John Malone, recently sold half his preferred shares—worth $32.7 million in cash—back to the company, according to a news release from Ascent Capital. The divestment comes nearly three years after Ascent acquired Monitronics in a $1.2 billion deal.
Malone, who sold 351,734 shares, now owns the same number of Series B shares, plus 198,540 Series A shares, which together comprise 21.6 percent of the Ascent shareholder vote, the release noted.
In an email exchange, Henry Edmonds, president of The Edmonds Group, a St. Louis-based investment bank, indicated that the move would likely please shareholders. "Ascent has had plenty of cash on its balance sheet so this is not a bad use of funds to help stock price," he said.
It will be interesting to see what (if any) effect this has on operations at Monitronics, a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Ascent. An investor I contacted seemed to believe it would not have much effect. Yesterday, the company announced that it will report its earnings on Nov. 12, 2013. On that date, the company will host a conference call in which management will give an update on Ascent's operations, including the financial performance of Monitronics, and "may also discuss future opportunities," the release said.
In all likelihood I'll be dialing into that conference call, which I'm hoping will shed some light on what those opportunities might be.
Jay Hauhn, chief technology officer and VP of industry relations at Tyco Integrated Security, has been named president of CSAA. The announcement was made at the organization's recent annual meeting in Quebec City. Hauhn, who most recently served as vice president for the organization, assumes the role held by Robert Bean, whose term expires this year.
Hauhn is actively involved in several industry organizations. Since 2011, he has served as chairman of the board at The Security Industry Association, a role in which he has executive responsibility for all interaction with industry associations, regulatory agencies and state and federal governments. His current term as Chairman of the Board at SIA ends this year.
Hauhn also sits on the board of directors at the Security Industry Alarm Coalition, and he is chairman of the Electronic Security Association's government relations committee.
I'm scheduled to speak with Hauhn later this week about his expanded role at CSAA. In that interview, I'll discuss some of Hauhn's short- and long-term ambitions as the newly minted leader of the organization.
Prism Skylabs, a two-year-old startup founded by Ron Palmeri and 3VR's Steve Russell today announced a $15 million Series B funding round led by Intel Capital, Intel Corporations' investment and M&A business. The round included investments from Presidio Ventures, Triangle Peak, Data Collective, Expa, and some existing investors, Russell told me.
Prism Skylab is a cloud service that transforms any video camera "into visual merchandising, auditing and business intelligence tool that can be accessed in real time from any device."
"On the business side, it's hard to overstate the value of having [an investor] like Intel for a company like Prism," Russell said.
The funding round was announced today in San Diego at the 14th Annual Intel Capital Global Summit where Intel awarded a total of $65 million in funding to 16 companies.
"At this conference we are able to look at how Prism might integrate with next-gen mobile devices [as well as the possibilities, for example, of using] new techniques in a data center that will allow us to increase our performance over 100-fold."
"The core of our business is the R&D and product work we do, and we'll continue to invest in that," Russell said, but the bulk of the funds from this round will be used for sales and marketing.
Since its launch, Prism has "brought on a host of interesting first customers, the new challenge for the business is to continue to serve the large customers we've won already and to build out our sales and marketing team to expand [the customer base] even further."
Prism SkyLabs has "well north of 50 customers" that include Fortune 500 companies and well-known brands that fall into the category of "large distributed retail companies."
"We solve one or two important problems for them," Russell said. "We provide a set of data and instruments in the real world that heretofore you could only get for online properties. … The other value we provide is allowing global brands to peek in and better manage their stores," he added.
"It's the analytic and visual [capabilities] that are really the secret sauce," he said.
Prism now has about 30 employees and Russell expects to double the size of the company within the next 12 months.
Prism raised $7.5 million in funding in October 2012.
"Intel Capital has long been known as a hands-on investor," Russell said. Among the ways the investor will assist Prism include "providing networking and matchmaking [among] its truly vast portfolio [of partners]."
The Intel Summit "[has] been an incredibly productive and fun three days for us," he said.

5 pairs - 5lb increments
Introducing the new "Uni-Lock" dumbbell from GP Industries, Inc. This new innovative design features a one-piece (no bolt) handle that is superior in strength to current bolted handle designs. Instead of a bolt, the ends of the handle are threaded providing one piece construction that is twice the diameter of conventional bolting methods. We design and manufacture these handles using only American made "Stress Proof" steel to enhance strength and durability (a GP Industries, Inc. exclusive). We assemble the plates to the handle with a proprietary locking nut that will not back off under the most severe shock loads, but can be adjusted forward with ease to accommodate for plate surface wear, handle deformation or any other factors that cause loosening in conventional bolt together dumbbells without diminishing its holding power. This unique feature ensures that your dumbbells will remain safe and secure.
Uni-Lock dumbbells are impervious to the shock loads generated from constant dropping and banging together - the primary cause of loosening. Conventional dumbbells utilize locking adhesives on the bolts, which do not hold under continuous shock loads. Adhesives cannot withstand repeated shock, which eventually breaks the seal and causes loosening. These methods only work if their seal remain intact. They cannot be tightened or adjusted without breaking the seal, which greatly reduces the holding power. The Uni-Lock dumbbell is not constructed with any locking adhesives and can be taken apart and reassembled as often as required.

Traveling can be hard on your muscles, joints, and nerves. Prolonged sitting puts stress on the spine and stiffens muscles in the back and legs and lugging heavy suitcases puts you at risk for low back injuries.
These tips can help you reduce pain and stress while traveling:
- Pack Light: Instead of packing one large, heavy suitcase, pack 2 smaller bags. This will make lifting bags into and out of the trunk of your car or overhead bins, and off of baggage carousels much easier.
- Lift luggage in stages: Move slowly and in stages when lifting luggage into the overhead bin. In separate motions, start by lifting the bag to the armrest of the seat, then to the top of the seatback, and finally up and into the bin. Remember to reverse this pattern when you remove your luggage.
- When lifting, never twist: Pivot your feet so that your entire body moves instead of only twisting your back. Twisting is a common cause of lower back injuries. If possible, avoid lifting all together by asking for help from a flight attendant.
- Relief with ice and heat: Bring a Ziploc bag and ask a flight attendant for some ice or stow a cold pack in your carry on. Place between your lower back and your seat for 20 minutes to reduce inflammation caused by lower back pain. A heatable self-massage ball such as Dr. Cohen's Acuball Kit can provide post-travel relief.
- Move Around: Change positions occasionally when seated to help avoid leg cramps and improve circulation. Massaging your legs and calves and doing shoulder rolls will also help. Consult your doctor for a few safe and easy hip and hamstring stretches you can do while traveling. During long flights and if possible, try to get up and walk about the cabin to stimulate blood flow and help prevent blood clots.
- Get aisle seat: An aisle seat allows you to easily get into and out of your seat. This makes it easier for you to move about the cabin.
- Sit with support: Airline seats are often worn out with poor lumbar support. Place a small rolled-up blanket or use an inflatable back cushion, like a Self-Inflating Back Rest, to find proper lumbar support during flight. Using a U-Shaped Travel Pillow will also provide proper support.
- Drink water: Be sure to stay hydrated and drink plenty of water as it helps cushion and lubricate joints and muscles.

4 Deep, cerebral, thought provoking study of human nature.pepeta | 18/11/2012 | See all pepeta's reviews (1)If you're looking for Edward Cullen here then don't buy this DVD. This is a stark study of a jaded, dissolute, overly rich young man who is bored with his life and the sycophants he needs but detests. This is not a movie to watch in part and then say you stopped watching because it was boring or whatever other emotion it inspires in you. It really is necessary to watch the entire movie to make a judgement. Although I would have preferred a more definitative ending, I have to say that I was enthralled by this man and his seemingly sad life. He had it all, materialistically but in the end, he had nothing. Great movie in my opinion.
1 NOT FOR NORMAL AUDIENCE CONSUMPTIONginganut | 02/10/2012 | See all ginganut's reviews (3)Pretentious in in the extreme, just like the book on which it was based. It attempts satire, but all characters could be the same person (that's the satire!) just talk @ each other. 75% of the film is set in a Limousine. Conflict near non-existent, and the end is so flaccid it just beggars belief. One person in the cinema showing I attended snorted awake halfway through. Neat idea/ satirical concept boringly done; totally unrewarding. Cinema version was longer, so some must be cut

Olly Bridge blasts across the finish line 1st in the Eurosaf Delta Lloyd Regatta!
The Delta Lloyd is one of the most prestigious and largest regattas for Olympic Classes in the sailing industry. For the first time in the history of the event, Kite Racing gained recognition and was welcomed into the Eurosaf Delta Lloyd Regatta for 2014. The integration saw a new format for Kite Racing emerge, including a direct qualifier to the ISAF Sailing World Cup Grand Final.
Medenbilk International Sailing Centre, Holland played host to the event from the 20-24th May. North Team rider Olly Bridge was there to test the new format and help develop Kite Racing to become a fixture for the 2020 Olympics. The three days of competition brought the crème de la crème of Race riders from across the globe, including the current World Champion Florian Gruber and Italian Champion Riccardo Lechesse with many Nations being represented.
Along with the new format, came a new Short Track Course, an exciting layout with a reaching start, downwind and upwind gates and plenty of manoeuvres, such as tacking, gybing and laylines. So much variety offered the riders endless opportunities to switch positions throughout the race although a cracking start was crucial. Riders were separated into heats of six with the course taking approximately eight minutes and as the event finished, all of the riders had competed in 11 heats.
Olly Bridge put in an outstanding performance, collecting nine bullets and two 2nd places. Main rival, Florian Gruber was hot on his heels throughout the competition, but lost out in the final race leaving Olly to finish 1st in the Delta Lloyde Regatta 2014.
Stay tuned for the next regatta, the Kite Race IKA African Continental Championships where the Race Team with be representing with the new 2015 North Dyno and North 69Ltd 2015.
The Free Episode
The Dyno dominates as Maxime Nocher claims the Under 21 World Champion Title
The IKA Kiteboard Race World Championships hit Poetto Beach, one of the most famous beaches in Sardinia. The Yacht Club Caligari was at centre stage for the Master and Junior World Chamionship Race from May 12th – 18th.
The trade Mistral wind blew in from the north-west delivering world class conditions for the first day of the competition. North Kiteboarding Rider Maxime Nocher was there to fight for the Under 21 World Champion Title, but faced hot competition from Maks Zakowski (Poland.) With strong and gusty winds increasing throughout the day, riders put in a fantastic performance around the simple course, crossing the finish line that ran parallel to a crowded and cheering beach. Maxime put in an outstanding effort, although it wasn't enough to put him in the lead, leaving him and Maks neck and neck after the first day of competition.
Day two was greeted by a change in wind conditions, much to Maxime's delight. The usual Mistral switched to Libeccio, a south-west onshore wind. After repositioning the course to suit the conditions, competition got underway. Choosing a 17 m Dyno, Maxime dominated all four of his races with ease putting him ahead of Polish rival Maks Zakowski, and at the top of the leader board.
As the Libeccio wind continued into day three, Maxime lost out to Maks, giving him a double victory and turning up the heat for the two riders looking to claim the title. Continuing into day four, the final day, Maxime pulled out all the stops rigging an 11m Dyno. Blasting across the finish line first in the last three races gave him the Under 21 World Champion Title.
Catching up with him after the competition he says; " I'm stoked about the title and my result against Maks, as he is talented and a phenomenally dedicated rider, committed to training hard every day. I'm positive about the Worlds in Turkey, as I have been training hard and am doing my best to push the limits. I don't worry about the conditions really as I am confident that the Dyno is the best inflatable kite out there, which allows me to concentrate on the race."
Ken Winner about the new "Juice"
What do you say when your mobile phone is out of battery? You say it's out of Juice. What do you say when your kite doesn't have enough power? Again, you're out of juice. We can't help you with the first problem, but for the second . . . we have Juice.
There are at least three main types of big kites:
-There are the big race kites, which are fast and have big wind range but aren't generally the best for handling or jumping. These kites need at least five struts and need to be light, so they have to be lightly built and are not the most bomb-proof kites around.
-Then there are the big airstyle kites, which have great wind range and jumping but are slow turning. These kites don't have to be particularly light because they are flown in plenty of wind, but this means they aren't the best at staying in the air in light wind.
- Finally, there are the big handling-oriented kites. These have to be light, durable and quick-turning. They're good for jumping and popping in light wind, but can also go big when powered. Unlike airstyle kites, they need to be nimble and quick. Unlike race kites, it's ok if they're not the last word in upwind performance.
This is where the Juice comes in. The Juice is based roughly on the Neo arc, strut count, profile and outline, but the aspect ratio has been stretched from 4.5 to 5.3, and the leading edge diameter has been shrunk a bit. The center strut is conventional -- so as to improve overall stability -- and the back pigtail is conventional because a relaunch bungee won't work well on such a thick LE tip.
Big kites have so much canopy area that they can really benefit from the stability provided by a lot of struts. Unfortunately, struts also add a lot of weight. We opted for three struts on the Juice because this number provides the best combination of low weight, high durability and good canopy stability.
You might wonder why not build a big kite with minimal weight by eliminating all struts, and this is certainly something we've considered. But our experience indicates that the lack of structure in strutless kites robs them not only of top end comfort and depower but also low end power. Add this to the tip flutter in turns and the strutless option seem limited.
The Neo has a floating strut in the center to give more complete luffing when sheeted out. We felt this was desirable on a smaller kite like the Neo. For the Juice, however, which is a much bigger kite, we felt a conventional strut in the center would give needed canopy stability.
The Juice shares the Neo arc. This arc gives a high segment count for good profile fidelity. It also provides smooth and quick steering while keeping good depower and sheet-go power delivery.
Aspect Ratio
We know from testing a wide variety of kites that high aspect ratios can improve bar feel and depower in big kites by quite a bit. High AR can be overdone, as it can give an excessively long and heavy leading edge, but a moderate AR can be just right. With the Juice we found that an AR of 5.3 gave a nice short bar stroke without hurting other aspects of handling such as quick turning.
Canopy Profiles
Given how well the Neo is working, we decided to stick with Neo profiles for the Juice.
We like to have several bridle anchor points on the leading edge so that bridle loads on the leading edge are well distributed. This led us to go with eight front bridle anchors.
We also like a bridle as short as possible, to reduce the chances of tangles and snags. The shortest bridles we tested did not give the best bar feel or turning ability so we lengthened the bridle to the point where steering and bar feel were good. This left the bridle still short enough that it can't loop over the end of the leading edge.
Finally, we had to consider whether to go with a pseudo-pulley or fixed front pigtail. Since using a pulley would permit the Neo to work with a greater variety of safety systems, we decided to go with one pulley on each side of the front bridle. But we also knew that a pulley could make the kite feel a little less crisp and responsive. Fortunately, combining the pulley with a stopper – as we've done on the Neo and Dyno – allowed us to keep both the pulleys and the crisp bar feel that we were looking for.
Juice in summary
Steering / turning
Moderately narrow arc and wide tips give super-quick turning.
Drift / hover
The low weight, low strut count and low center of gravity of the Juice keep it very stable in the air. It flies well in the lightest of winds and resists stalling, both front and back, better than nearly any other kite.
Power delivery
Owing to the smooth, round turning and short bar stroke (for kites this big), the Juice has consistent, linear, sheet-go power delivery.
The high aspect ratio helps deliver quick, easy depower.
We've minimized materials where possible on the Juice, so keep the weight down, but have included all usual reinforcements.

New FloVENT Diffuser Models Improve Airflow Simulation in Buildings
March 2007
Flomerics has announced the availability of six new web macros for its FloVENT software that save time and improve accuracy in simulating the performance of diffusers. In the past, modeling diffusers has required detailed information from manufacturers about physical tests, building a room model to simulate the tests, and adjusting the model to match the test results. The models produced by the new web macros on the other hand, can simply be dropped into a FloVENT model and require only commonly available data for the diffuser such as outside dimensions, flow rate and temperature data.
"Diffuser data is hard to obtain and even when you get it it's very time-consuming to build a model that properly utilizes that data," said Dr. Andy Manning, Director of Engineering at Flomerics. "The new FloVENT web macro dramatically reduce the time required to accurately model diffusers. We have carefully tested these web macros and determined that provide a similar level of accuracy equal to building a room model and matching the flow. The built-in intelligence of the new web macros eliminates what used to be a difficult and time-consuming task. Another advantage of the new web macros is that they automatically generate the correct grid geometry and constraints, which helps avoid errors."
The new web macros were developed based on research done by Drs. Qingyan Chen and Jelena Srebric of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who are now professors at Purdue University and Pennsylvania State University, respectively. The researchers defined a method by which readily-available diffuser parameters can be translated into computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models. "The correct description of the flow and thermal information from an air supply diffuser is extremely important for a reliable prediction of room air distribution with CFD," Chen said. "I am very pleased that Flomerics is making use of the methods that we developed for ASHRAE to ensure accurate representation of diffusers in CFD models."
The FloVENT web macros for displacement, square ceiling, round ceiling, vortex ceiling, and grille diffusers are based on the momentum method developed by Chen and Srebric. The momentum method de-couples momentum and mass flow in the CFD simulations from the room airflow. This method uses the initial momentum and mass flow rate from a diffuser as boundary conditions for the diffusers. Flomerics has also introduced a web macro for representing drum louvre diffusers which is based on research performed by Paul Rose with Gilberts, a UK-based manufacturer of diffusers.
FloVENT software from Flomerics reduces the time and skill required to simulate complex ventilation problems, because it is specially designed for applications in the built environment. FloVENT provides tools that allow users to assemble models from libraries, avoiding the need to create them from scratch. FloVENT provides an environment that enables fast, automated design studies. Automated gridding and distributed processing across networks streamlines the process of evaluating multiple iterations to optimize the design. With this new version, FloVENT continues to set the standard for airflow simulation in the construction industry. Thermal dimensioning, contamination/moisture control and airflow inside large buildings can now easily be undertaken in FloVENT.

I actually like the shoe, however, if I were to purchase another pair, I would get a 1/2 size DOWN, the fabric tends to stretch and now the shoes are too big and I had to put an insole in the show to take up the slack.

Rated 4 out of 5 by SamTB They're great
I've been wearing them for a week now and they're super comfortable. Only issue I have is when I got them in the mail, the insole of one of the pairs was already coming off. Other than that, they're great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jjackson131 Love these shoes!
I don't wear them as shoes I wear them as slippers but I wear a 7 1/2 and these shoes only came in whole sizes so based on the other reviews, I decided to get the 7 instead of an 8. Big mistake. It was hard to get my feet into but once I did I "broke them in" and now they feel and look wonderful!

Rated 5 out of 5 by QueenofQueens Not just for home!
After reading other reviews, I decided to order these "slippers" and see what everyone was raving about. Well, they were right. They are too cute to just wear around the house. They need to be on display in the shopping market and malls. These little steppers will be my go to shoes when my feet are begging for relief. You will love them too!

These slippers are cute and stylish, love the navy color. I read the reviews and ordered my true size, but could have gone a 1/2 size up. Although, I think the more I wear them, the shearling will stretch out. They also seem really durable. Got them on sale and couldn't be happier with my purchase, especially for the price.

Vulvar cancer is cancer that starts in the vulva . Vulvar cancer most often affects the labia, the folds of skin outside the vagina. In some cases, vulvar cancer starts on the clitoris or in glands on the sides of the vagina opening.
Cancer - perineum
Most vulvar cancers begin in skin cells called squamous cells. Other vulvar cancers are:
Vulvar cancer is rare. Risk factors include:
Women with a condition called vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia (VIN) have a high risk of developing vulvar cancer that spreads. Most cases of VIN, though, never lead to cancer.
Women with this condition will often have itching around the vagina for years. They may have used different skin creams. They may also have bleeding.
Other skin changes that may occur around the vulva:
Other symptoms:
Some women with vulvar cancer have no symptoms.
The following tests are used to diagnose vulvar cancer:
Treatment involves surgery to remove the cancer cells. If the tumor is large (more than 2 cm) or has grown deeply into the skin, the lymph nodes in the groin area may also be removed.
Radiation , with or without chemotherapy , may be used to treat advanced tumors or vulvar cancer that comes back.
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a cancer support group . Sharing with others who have common experiences and problems can help you not feel alone.
Most women with vulvar cancer who are diagnosed and treated at an early stage do well. But a woman's outcome depends on:
The cancer commonly comes back at or near the site of the original tumor.
Complications may include:
Call your health care provider if you have any of these symptoms for more than 2 weeks:
Practicing safer sex may decrease your risk of vulvar cancer. This includes using condoms to protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
A vaccine is available to protect against certain forms of HPV infection. The vaccine is approved to prevent cervical cancer and genital warts. It may help prevent other cancers linked to HPV, such as vulvar cancer. The vaccine is given to young girls before they become sexually active, and to adolescents and women up to age 26.
Routine pelvic exams can help diagnose vulvar cancer at an earlier stage. Earlier diagnosis improves your chances that treatment will be successful.

It is no surprise that the risks of many troublesome health problems can be reduced with a good diet (and increased by a bad one). But did you know that while our diet has changed considerably from what our ancestors ate 50,000 years ago, not all of these changes have been for the good?
For example, our modern diets are likely to contain far less potassium, far more sodium, more acid forming nutrients, and less base-forming nutrients than those enjoyed by our ancestors when our species evolved. The consequences can be tragic.
Most Americans Do Not Get Enough Potassium
Fortunately, an inexpensive potassium bicarbonate dietary supplement can help you to eat more like a Caveman—without the Stone Age burdens of laborious hunting and gathering—and offer dramatic support for your wellbeing.
Modern human dietary requirements were encoded into our DNA during evolution starting with the Paleolithic diet, which contained about 35% meat and about 65% plant foods. Moreover, these foods of the early human diet had a different composition than foods do today, including a much higher level of potassium (from fruits and vegetables) and much less acid-forming content (because of the increased ratio of plant to animal foods).
The change to a low potassium, high acid-forming content diet has had a profound impact on many aspects of wellness and healthy aging. But adding potassium bicarbonate to your daily dietary program can help support healthy:
So get into the swing of things (no club intended) and make Potassium Basics a regular part of your supplement program today!
WARNING: IF YOU ARE TAKING A POTASSIUM-SPARING DIURETIC PRESCRIPTION DRUG DO NOT TAKE SUPPLEMENTAL POTASSIUM. If you have kidney disease you should discuss potassium bicarbonate supplementation with your physician before use. Do not reduce your dose of antihypertensive drugs or discontinue them without consulting your physician.
Suggested Use: The recommended daily serving of Durk & Sandy's Potassium Basics is 2 capsules, 2 to 4 times daily, which provide a total of 2.7 g of potassium bicarbonate (1.35 g in each capsule) per 2 capsule serving. The elemental amount of potassium in 2.7 g of potassium bicarbonate is 1.05 g. DO NOT TAKE on an empty stomach. Take with meals.
Up to late June I performed a one minute workout every morning. I had plateaued in the number of repetitions of push-ups for some time before that, with 'regulars' at max. 36 but reached most of the time only 32 to 35. My 'cheaters' (the kind you do, when the sergeant or coach yells "gimme 20") had topped out at 42. Late June I added potassium bicarbonate, choline bitartrate and beta alanine to my regimen. The results were astounding. I have now topped out at 59 for the 'regulars' and 66 for the 'cheaters'. That is an average increase of about 60%! Without taking any steroids I have packed on muscle volume and strength at faster rate than any time between puberty and 30. And that at age 77, when every self-respecting old geezer succumbs to sarcopenia. Just as amazing: Our property includes part of a pond, which is stocked with Koi, pretty valuable fish. Every November it is raided by Mergansers, extremely efficient hunters. I try to keep them away from the near end by tossing rocks at them. I was amazed, that this year I suddenly could throw these rocks about 50% farther than last November, without any practice in between. So, yes, it stands to reason, that potassium bicarbonate enhances physical performance and strength, but I tend to think, that the synergy of all or most of the supplements, I am taking, is the real cause of mine.
I am a real fan of your Potassium Basics. I noted the stomach aches when taking the product as directed, but by dissolving the contents of the capsules in a small glass of water, the problem was fixed. I tell my patients to do exactly that - pull them apart and dissolve in some water. It's easy to do. Please continue making them in the capsule form that you do so that we can remove the contents easily. Just love the product, it increases potassium which is great, and reduces acidity via the bicarbonate which is important too.
I typically always had a normal blood pressure, but in the last 10 years it hasn't been; I think the change is age-related because I take a ton of supplements, my diet is great, and my weight is low. I started taking Durk's recommended dosage of this product and my blood pressure is maintaining at healthy levels.
Other Ingredients: Gelatin capsule, magnesium stearate.

Italian Tile Makers Go Retro With Green Style, Design
Wearing its sustainability on its sleeve, this manufacturer now reuses 100% of its unfired waste, recycles it back into the manufacturing, and recycles 100% of its factories' wastewater. The company's products come in 167 colors and eight surfaces. In addition, 32 modular sizes are available. Street is shown here. www.cervogue.com

Ceramic that mimics wood may not be for everyone, but this design concept has been a winner for European manufacturers. This product, Greenwood collection by Cerim, calls to mind the rustic floors of old houses. It's inspired by the wood processing method based on pickling and aniline dyes, the company says. The glazed porcelain stoneware is based on oak wood in five new colors. A variety of sizes are available. www.cerim.it/
Lines, a new collection by French designer Patrick Norguet, features distinctive graphics and lines created using advanced high-definition technology on Slimtech laminated tiles. Measuring only 3 millimeters thick, the product is lighter, which makes this tile product easier to transport as well as cheaper and easier to install. It can be used on closet doors, containers, doors, fireplaces, bathroom, and kitchen countertops. Six colors are available. www.ceramichelea.it.
Déchirer, which is designed by Patricia Urquiola, is an unglazed porcelain tile collection that is inspired by the nature of cement. It features patterns that suggest apparent traces of previous stratifications as well as different reliefs, levels, and textures, which results in a tile that begs to be touched. A wide variety of styles, sizes, and colors are available. www.mutina.it.
Ernesto Pedroni
As its name—Kaos—suggests, this product by Luca Nichetto means complete disorder and potential infinitesimal possibilities of creation, the company says. Combining texture and color, the line's graphic is expressed with various traces: decors in relief, rotocolor printing, and digital printing arranged in layers on the tile. The surface is dynamic and never the same, changing depending on the point of view. A variety of colors and sizes are available. www.refin.it/en/
Bologna, Italy—As design professionals and the tile industry gathered at the international ceramic tile and bathroom fixture show this week, the mood was decidedly upbeat. Why? Italian manufacturers have started to see some economic improvement around the globe as well as in the United States, which is one of Italy's most important markets.
"On the basis of the figures gathered in the first half of the year, we are expecting to report overall sector growth at the end of the year of between 2.5% and 3.5%," Confindustria Ceramica Chairman Franco Manfredini said at a press conference this week. "A key role will be played by exports with expected growth of between 3% and 4.5%, corresponding to an increase in turnover of around 4.7 billion euros in 2010. This recovery reflects the improvement in the international economic situation and demonstrates that the downturn reported by the Italian ceramic industry in 2009 was not caused by a lack of competitiveness, but was a direct result of the financial crisis."
Cersaie, the international exhibition of ceramic tile and bathroom furnishings, is considered one of the tile industry's most important shows. (The other is Cevisama in Spain). Held this year from Sept. 28 to Oct. 2, 2010, Cersaie is expected to host more than 90,000 attendees who come to see the the latest products that will be hitting design showrooms across North America this year or next.
Like other nations, Italy, which exports about 70% of its products, saw slowed growth as the global recession hampered demand for and sales of its products. But now with renewed confidence that good times are ahead, the country's manufacturers are expressing renewed optimism with a bold looks, radical new textures, recycled-content products, and innovative offerings that incorporate features such as solar technology.
"On the style front, interesting cutouts, lace, oversized flowers, skinny stripes, and mid-century modern will make their way to the tile runway," says a trend report from Novita Communications, the Italian tile industry's PR representative in the United States. "In line with the times, visitors can expect to see a bounty of organic influences ranging from rustic wood looks to natural stone. And who can forget about green design and technological innovation? New slim formats are guaranteed to make a big impact on the A&D community."

I've had reservations about starting this topic for quite a while, I'll admit. I've watched interviews, read articles and have checked out their website. I remember briefly reading parts of the Satanic Bible back in highschool as well as the Necronomicon. A curiosity thing mingled with a bit of rebellion, if you will.
So what do you make of these people, this church and their message? They claim that they don't believe in Satan, they refer you to their bible to answer questions but don't like the parts about Satan to be mentioned. They claim to celebrate nature and human nature, lumping all nature-based religions into their fold. This is something Christians are all too willing to take at face value and spew from the pulpit. Mostly because it fits nicely with their doctrine. Are they being deceived though? I wonder if that thought ever crossed an evangelical's mind.
I think healthy discussion is important, I also believe in "know thy enemy". After all, they know you and your religious beliefs and scriptures. So, what do you make of all this?
