After enjoying the position of Second largest handset maker for long, the much notorious Indian company has finally emerged as the leading handset maker leaving behind Samsung. We have always boasts about the company tactics and the way it deals with the requirements of the younger generation. And it looks like their hard work paid off finally.
And these reports have been issued by the Counter Point Research. According to their reports Motorola over took Nokia to achieve the position of fourth largest smart phone maker while Micromax over took Samsung to reach at the first position in India handset shipment share.
Micromax currently has 16.6% of shares in India handset shipment while Samsung just contribute 14.4% of the share. While if look at the smart phone shipment share, the company is on second position with 19.1% shares in the market. Here Samsung takes the lead with 25.3% of shares.
Coming to the feature phone market, here also Micromax emerges as the leader with market share of 15.2% while Nokia is relishing second position with market share of 14.7% in Q2 2014.
This would be the first time any Indian handset maker has entered into the top 10 rankings with2.3% market share in Q2 2014. It is a big achievement to get placed into the top 10 rankings and that to with this much share globally.
Source: Counterpoint Research
There always have been competition of Micromax with the biggies like Samsung or apple, and it seems the company has finally managed to increase their share with the help of fine innovations which they have done in the past like introducing hexa cores handsets first time in the mid range segment, or prefaces handset with both rear and front camera in the price range below INR 10,000. The company has always attempted to provide best of the features and this is the why company has become largest handset vendor all over India in Q2 2014.
Micromax has successfully jumped from 11th rank to 10th rank and left the rivals like Lava, Xolo etc far behind. All the companies now have to keep themselves at the fine pace to compete with the the vendor which is evolving at such a large gait.
This is the very first time when any Indian company has surmounted the company like Samsung which is the reigning king of the handset market. Clearly Micromax has always focused on the area on which Samsung never worked like when Samsung was busy in introducing slightly out dated specs in the low range, Micromax tried its luck by delivering latest specs like latest android Kitkat 4.4 or front camera that too with fine quality etc in their handsets below 10000INR which is an achievement in itself. The company also assures the quality which no other company like Xolo or Lava claims.
Even it is a very proud moment for India, as the Indian brands collectively has steered the two third of total mobile phone shipments. Even the Indian brands have managed to swipe more than half of the shares in smart phone shipment in Q2 2014.

On a Thursday night at Trident Tech's Palmer campus, history professor Lester Pittmann goes over the Seven Years War of 1754-1763 with his class. A simple map of the U.S. colonies is up on the board, and Professor Pittmann is asking his students to point out the major cities of the period. "New York," says student Victor Malvaraz. "Philadelphia," adds another. "Charleston," the class says as the teacher points to South Carolina.
"And what's something all these cities have in common?" Pittmann asks.
"They're all ports," Malvaraz says.
"Yes," says Pittmann. He explains the importance of ports in the 1700s, fielding questions about England's economic structure, the colonies' usefulness as resource mills, and whether greater communication between the colonies and the motherland would have postponed American independence. Then he gets to one of the class's major themes, something he and the students will revisit throughout the semester-long U.S. history course. "These cities had greater ties to the motherland, to England, than they did with each other," he says. "And that's important to think about when we discuss this question, how did we become one united people?"
That's a good question for any group of people to ponder, but it's especially meaningful in this particular classroom. The students, all adults, are split roughly 50-50 between African American and white. They come from a huge variety of backgrounds and circumstances, and will go home to widely different situations once class ends, if they have a home to go to. Some are homeless, some have struggled with addiction, some are just down on their luck, but they are all here for the same reason: to broaden their minds, and thereby broaden the worlds that they live in.
The students are taking part in the Charleston Clemente Course, a humanities program for people who are disadvantaged, homeless, or living in economic distress. The Clemente program was started in 1995 in New York by the late Earl Shorris, a writer who studied multi-generational poverty by interviewing hundreds of poor, homeless, and imprisoned people. As he wrote in the 1997 Harper's Magazine article "On the Uses of a Liberal Education," it was an interview with one particular female prisoner that inspired him to start the program. When he asked this prisoner why she thought people stayed poor, she answered, "'You've got to teach the moral life of downtown to the children. And the way you do that, Earl, is by taking them downtown to plays, museums, concerts, lectures, where they can learn the moral life of downtown.'" In other words, you have to allow people access to culture if you want to help people change their lives.
It's a counter-intuitive idea for many — surely, the way out of poverty has more to do with jobs and economic security than it does with seeing Shakespeare performed or studying art history. But Shorris believed that one of the most vital elements of working one's way out of poverty was the ability to self-reflect, which is what history, art, and literature — the humanities — teach us.
This idea resonated deeply with Dr. Mary Ann Kohli, a Trident Tech English instructor and director of the Charleston Clemente Course. She first heard about the Clemente program back in 2004 from a textbook representative. "We were talking about humanitarian projects and she was telling me about one that came out of New York that brought a free humanities class to homeless people. And I thought that was a wonderful idea," Kohli says. "I myself had just been in treatment the previous year for breast cancer. I had been through chemo and surgery and radiation and so I was cognizant of, you know, I guess that there is a terminal point in every person's life and you don't know with cancer whether it will come back or not. So I was wanting to make the time I had matter."
Kohli got in touch with Shorris to find out more about the program. That's when she learned about his pivotal conversation with that prisoner and how it changed his thinking about poverty. "Earl started thinking about his Ivy League education and how it always includes the humanities and critical thinking and he thought, well actually, the ability to think abstractly is what will get you out of poverty," she says. "It's not the rote, mechanical jobs where you don't think for yourself. It's in the ability to think for yourself, and think abstractly."
So Kohli went about setting up the course at Trident Tech, launching the first class in January 2005 with a grant from the S.C. Humanities Council. She found (and continues to find) her students through various social service agencies like homeless and women's shelters, the Veterans' Administration, and food banks. Students don't need a GED to be eligible, although they do need to pass a verbal placement test and complete an application both for Trident Tech and for the Clemente course. As director, Kohli is responsible for raising the funds each year to cover all expenses, which she usually does through fundraisers.
The class is divided into two semesters, the first covering U.S. history and art history and the second covering literature, philosophy, and writing. There's no tuition, and students receive a full meal each class as well as free books and a bus pass, and they're each paired with a mentor. There are lots of field trips too, like to the Dock Street Theatre, the Gibbes Museum, and the Charleston Museum.
And these aren't fluffy, just-for-the-fun-of-it classes. They're regular college-level courses, so students receive grades and must pass the first course in order to move on to the second one.
That can be a real challenge for many participants, especially the ones who have little other structure or security in their lives. "It's taught in the Socratic method where you ask questions and you ask the students to think for themselves," Kohli says. "I've got a handful of students that are actually living on the street now, which presents its challenges. A lot of our students are coming from Crisis Ministries, and they face a variety of challenges and for them to sit down and, you know, in the literature and philosophy read parts of The Republic or Sophocles' Antigone — that's a challenge and a stretch for them."
For Kohli, whom her students describe as someone who lives and breathes kindness and generosity, it can be difficult to not want to give even more. But like all professionals who work with the poor or the abused, she's had to learn to maintain those boundaries. "I can offer them sort of an academic leg-up, and I can offer them support. And another thing [this course] offers is self-esteem. Our students come out feeling they have earned what they've gotten."
What they've gotten by the end of a Clemente course is not only self-esteem, personal growth, and a feeling of community — as well as a great deal of knowledge — but also college credit. Kohli says that the national average for Clemente course completion is 50 percent, and her course meets that or better each year. Of those who graduate from the Charleston course, 50 percent of those go on to take more college courses either at Trident or at other institutes of higher learning. One former student who was living on the street and HIV positive now has her Master's degree from the University of South Carolina. Another whom Kohli keeps in touch with is currently working to save up the last $2,000 she needs to enroll in the College of Charleston, where she's already been accepted.
Then there are people like Peggy (who requested her last name not be used). Peggy, a single mother who's faced a long string of tough breaks, took the Clemente courses in 2009 and has stayed involved with the program. Currently, she's Kohli's work-study student and is working on getting her associate degree at Trident. "Lots of people think that if you're in these classes you're either a drunk or a prostitute," she says. "And that's just not true, not to say these classes aren't for [those people]. If people want to change their lives you've got to let them. This is just for people who need a community." The class works, she continues, because of Kohli. "Once you come here, she's your friend for life," Peggy says. "I think that's why programs fail — because it's like oh, there are these poor disadvantaged people and then there's us, you know, up here. Dr. Kohli just sees all of us as 'us.'"
Another important aspect of the Clemente classes is the validation they provide. So many Clemente students are used to being ignored, degraded, or written off. "People don't know how smart people are that are in shelters, because they get categorized and generalized as somehow lacking," Kohli says. But as one will find from sitting in on a class, these poor or homeless students are often just as curious and well-informed as anyone else. In these classes, if nowhere else in their lives, they're taken seriously. "People listen to each other here," says Peggy. "Clemente promotes values I believe in. The professors encourage you to look at other people's way of thinking."
And that's the essence of what the humanities offer, whether it's seeing a play or reading an ancient text or visiting a museum exhibition — the chance to learn empathy, to escape and gain perspective on our own problems, and to discover the differences among people around the world. "You know, when you're poor you don't have money to do relaxing things, you can't go to a spa, or on vacation. You're stuck in your situation every day," Peggy says. "Going to the theater, going to plays — that changes people. People need to be exposed to a beautiful world. What you learn is that even if your own world is full of people fighting, of meanness, that there's another way."

Star Gazing in Grand Central
November 11th, 2010, 5:41 pm
On Monday, the stars in Grand Central Terminal's sky ceiling were once again shining. For several months, electricians have been installing energy efficient LED lights, which are now burning bright, just in time for the holiday season. Having helped save Grand Central Terminal in the 1970s, we at MAS are particularly pleased that the mural designed by J. Monroe Hewlett in 1913, has not only been preserved, but also updated with the latest efficient technology available.
Originally, the mural depicting the zodiac used incandescent bulbs to light the 59 largest stars in the constellation, but changing the bulbs in the 125-foot ceiling proved to be a difficult, and labor intensive, feat. When the mural was restored in 1997, a fiber optic lighting system was put in place, but within ten years, many of those lights had dimmed or faded out.
Last year, MAS urged the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) to fix the lighting system as it is such an important part of the terminal's history. "We applaud the MTA for heeding our advice, and once again casting light on this iconic work of art. The newly installed LED lights are not only functional, using about 60% less energy than the fiber optics and lasting five years, but they also serve as a great example of how preservation and sustainability can be thoughtfully integrated," said MAS President Vin Cipolla.
Whether passing through the terminal or rushing to get a train, take a moment to look up at the stars.

Olympic Flame: Will the fence come down?
Posted by Jack Broom
It's rapidly becoming the most photographed chain-link fence in the world.
The barrier between pedestrians and the Olympic cauldron on the Vancouver waterfront has cluttered countless snapshots over the past few days. A line of Olympics-goers several blocks long is pressing forward for a glimpse of the sacred flame.
But many have complained that the barricade that protects the display makes it appear the cauldron is in jail, far removed from those who've come to admire it.
A Canwest news report this afternoon said VANOC officials may consider a "less austere" barrier, while still keeping fans at a safe distance.
As of this writing, however, the fence is still in place and shows no signs of disappearing.

I have the rear shocks twisted as high as they go and even at 55psi or 60psi in the rear the car is too damn low and rubs far too much. I would have to dial in 3-4 degrees of camber in the rear to be able to drive the car...shortly after that I put my works on which dont count towards handling lol.
What PSI should I be driving at for maximum performance? I have new wheels coming 18x9.5 +40 with the same 275/35 tire and really want to give the bags a shot but I am worried they won't work with a real aggressive tire.
Yeah the rear dampers on the GR are remarkably short... I just did an install on a '13 WRX hatch and at max lift the rear was still tucking tire on stock wheels. The owner of the vehicle and good friend of mine, Colby came up for our BBQ this weekend and picked up a set of Klutch SL14's. We determined that he can thread the rear shock bracket about 1/2" further up to allow perfect fitment when aired out and maximum lift, but still there will be MAYBE a fingers worth of gap.
The 08+ Chassis is an example of a suspension setup that requires a very, VERY short damper in order to achieve maximum drop. The length of the damper and piston will ultimately determine the overall stroke, which is unfortunately only ~2.5" on the Air Lift rear kit. Again, this is to ensure maximum drop and is no way a design fault.
Ideal driving pressure is listed in the Air Lift installation manual. Front Struts are listed at ~50psi, rear (for the 08+) is 40-65psi.
Shoot me a PM if you have any other questions, I'm always happy to help!
PS - Here is a shot of Colby's WRX with his new Klutch SL14's at our shop!

Is there any program out there that allows me to see certain spacing stats on my hdd?
What I mean is, I have a 1tb disc which has now about 200 gb left in space, but instead of right clicking each folder to see which is hogging up most of the space is there a program that can list it somehow?
I have a film folder of about 200gb and so there is still 300 or so lose around in other places but I can't exactly pinpoint where.. :uhoh:
I recommend WinDirStat.

As one enters from the gateway one has to descend nearly some fifteen feet to reach the first stage of the temple prakara. This stage consists mainly of the large tank known as the Kallola tirth. After the construction of the nivas of the devi was over. Vishvakarma took leave of Brahmadeva on whose command he had come down to the Yamunachala to build it. Brahmadeva decided to create the-tirths necessary for any kshetra. He then invited all the well-known and holy waters on this earth to come to the Yamunachala. The response to the invitation was immediate, and every source of holy water that existed on the surface of the earth and below it rushed to the spot. Ganga, Yamuna, Sarasvati all obeyed the command.Various other tirths from the Himalayas, Vindhyas, Sahyadris, Trikut and Malay mountains flocked together. There was a tumultuous assemblage of all these and on account of the furore
created by them Brahmadeva named it 'Kallola tirth'. The power of the tirth is so great that even its very darshan is capable of destroying sin. A bath in the tirth is the first rite to be performed by a pilgrim. The tank is walled off from all sides and entrance into the enclosure is only on payment of a fixed charge. Steps lead down to the water making it easier to take a bath in it. A dip in this tirth during the month of Magha is the giver of great good. The Tulajarnahatmya states that apart from sins, various diseases are cured by this water. This tirth is a large rectangular reservoir
forty feet by twenty and is most probably a fourteenth century construction. On one side of the tirth are a number of aisles now used for residential purposes. From the other side, that is, the northern sids a flight of steps leads down another fifteen feet taking the visitor down to the second stage of the Prakara. This is crowded with various tirths and some subsidiary shrines. The point that attracts immediate attention is the 'Gomukh tirth'. Here a stream of water is constantly falling down some six feet from the Gomukh, a stone image of a cow's head. This flow of water comes from the Mankavati tirth,
as is evident from the fact that when the latter dries up due to scarcity of rains, the former also dries up. However, the local tale is quite different. The water flowing down from the Gomukh is Ganp herself. Once there came a mendicant belonging to the Nath sampradaya. His name was Garibanath. He was rather an unbelieving type of soul and not paying any attention to the local elders decided to go to the Ganges to enjoy real Ganga-snana. When the devi saw that her devotees had failed to convince him she herself appeared before him and tried to show him that this indeed was water from the Ganga. But
the man was in no mood to accept even the divine explanations. He however, agreed in the end to carry with him a stick and a lemon fruit to the Ganges and drop them in the water there. Walking down all the way to the Ganges, the sadhu performed all the rites at the tirth, got the satisfaction he longed for and then remem bering the devi's words rather sceptically threw the stick and lemon in the river, The man returned to Tuljapur in due course and when, following the usual custom stood below the Gomukh to bathe in the downpour, he saw the stick and the lemon coming out of the Gomukh. This at last convinced
him that the water pouring forth from the Gomukh was in fact Ganges water. The Mahatmyait the Dharsa-tirth', and says that it consists of the three waters, that of Ganga, Yamuna and Sarasvati.

The Orioles' five-game win streak has certainly been fueled by excellent starting pitching, and the Orioles have given up just ten runs over those five games.
As for the offense, the Orioles are certainly not putting up big numbers there. They currently rank third in the AL in homers and ninth in slugging, but only 11th in runs and batting average and 12th in OBP.
But they have averaged 4.6 runs per game during the win streak, a tick up from their season average of 4.15 runs per game. Last season's Orioles averaged 4.37 runs per game to rank seventh in the AL.
It seems like the O's have more players contributing now on offense than they have at times over the last few weeks.
Nick Markakis' return has been a big boost, and he is batting .364 at 16-for-44 in ten games since coming off the DL. Jim Thome is batting .333 at 10-for-30 over his last seven games with five extra-base hits. Thome and Markakis, heated up at the same time, could mean solid things for the O's offense.
Also, it was certainly a good sign to see J.J. Hardy hit a big homer yesterday. Hardy suddenly has a six-game hitting streak, during which he is 7-for-26 for an average of .269. Certainly he's not red-hot, but his bat and stats are finally trending up a bit.
When players like Markakis, Thome and Hardy get it going in the first three spots in the order, that should mean good things and more RBI chances for those that follow, including Adam Jones and Matt Wieters. Seeing that big duo heat up at the plate would be huge for this team in the remaining 67 games.
It's still mostly about the pitching to me. The pitching the Orioles have gotten during a five-game win streak will overcome plenty of other issues, but if some of these bats pick it up, the club's recent resurgence also might last a while.
Meanwhile here is a note from the Orioles' PR department:
The Birds will go for a four-game sweep in Cleveland tonight. The last time the O's swept a four-game set from the Tribe in Cleveland was September 24-26, 1971 (doubleheader on the 24th). The O's have won three games in Cleveland for the first time since 1998 (3-3). The last time the O's won four games in Cleveland in one season was 1992 (4-3). The last four-game road sweep by the Birds was August 22-25, 2011 at Minnesota.

Great starting Knife
Henry T.
This is the perfect knife for beginners. Mine lasted about 10 months before it started to break, but that was after extremely vigorous flipping. I mean dropping a lot. But it is an amazing knife nonetheless. I love bear and son. Its an amazing company. The only complaint I have is that the tang pin came a bit squashed and loose, but other than that, I was satisfied.
Great for beginners
Chase C.
If you are thinking about entering the balisong community this is a great place to start. The price is just fantastic for dabbling. Also might be nice to mention the service free pins that hold it together. For more traveled flippers the story is a quite bit different. I spent 6 months with this knife and it really shows. The only problem, which cascades into many others, is the latch. There is nothing in place to stop it from blocking the blade when closing the knife. As of now, the latch is shredded and the blade is chipped in many places on the last 3/4". However, I would like to reinforce that this has been a fantastic first knife.
Worth the price by far...
Joseph C.
You can't beat this thing for the price. Came sharp, oiled, and perfect. Sturdy as hell, and a good flipper right out the box.

Recirculating Media Filters
Proven wastewater treatment technology for residential, commercial and small community needs
Clarus Environmental's Recirculating Media Filter (RMF) is designed for use in decentralized wastewater treatment applications where the effluent quality must meet or exceed secondary treatment standards. The RMF technology can be used in residential, commercial, or small community applications for treating residential strength wastewater from a septic tank. Treatment occurs below grade as the fluid trickles down through the pore spaces of the media where aerobic organisms feed on the nutrients. Effluent leaves the system through an outlet pipe in the bottom of the filter. Treatment capacities range from 450 gpd to more than 36,000 gpd. Multiple RMFs can be used together when greater capacities are needed. Effluent can be discharged above or below grade. Above grade disposal must meed local health codes or guidelines.
- Produces better than secondary quality effluent
- Specified gravel media is more reliable than sand
- Size can be adapted to site-specific organic and hydraulic load
- Proven and reliable technology
- Minimal maintenance requirements

is a science fiction third-person shooter. Set three years after the events of the first Dead Space, the game follows protagonist Isaac Clarke's fight against a new Necromorph outbreak on the Sprawl, a space station surrounding a shard of Saturn's largest moon,Titan.
The player controls Isaac Clarke from a third-person perspective, looking over the character's right shoulder. As in the previous game, the game uses the Resource Integration Gear (RIG) suit, an in-world heads-up display (HUD) system that uses holograms projected from Isaac's suit and weapons to show information such as messages and ammunition count. In vacuum areas, a timer appears on Isaac's right shoulder, counting how much oxygen his suit has before he suffocates. The RIG also uses gauges on Isaac's back to display his health and stasis module levels. If Isaac's health or air reaches zero, or if the player fails to survive a quick-time event, Isaac will die, forcing the player to restart from the last checkpoint.
Early in the game, Isaac acquires the stasis module, which slows down enemies and otherwise-impassable moving obstacles (e.g. active heavy machinery) to allow Isaac to pass through safely; and the kinesis module, which allows Isaac to carry and fire objects telekinetically. The player can upgrade their weapons and armor at work benches, using power nodes. There are also automated stores, where the player can buy and sell various items, and gain new weapons and suits through acquiring schematics found throughout the Sprawl.
Throughout the game, the player will come across different puzzles that impede progress. In some cases, Isaac must hack consoles to activate machines and open doors; in others, Isaac must repair or reposition mechanisms to proceed. The player regularly encounters zero-G environments, where Isaac is capable of maneuvering in all directions with thrusters attached to his suit. Both normal and zero-G environments may be in areas within the vacuum of outer space; in these situations, Isaac must refill his limited oxygen supply via oxygen dispensers.
Much like in the first game, Isaac must fight the Necromorphs, organisms that mutate and take control of human corpses. To take down Necromorphs, the player must use "strategicdismemberment": in other words, slicing off limbs or sections of the Necromorphs' bodies. For example, shooting a Slasher Necromorph in the head will, like many other types, have little effect; however, it can be stopped by shooting its bladed arms off. Depending on how they are wounded, some Necromorphs, like the Pregnant and the Ubermorph, can adopt new stances and tactics, even sprouting new limbs or spawning more enemies in the process.
Dead Space 2's main campaign offers five difficulty levels (listed in order of difficulty): Casual, Normal, Survivalist, Zealot and Hard Core. Hard Core is unlocked once the game has been completed on any other difficulty. Playable only from a fresh start, Hard Core mode limits the player to three saves in the entire campaign. Item drops and credits are very difficult to find, enemies are very challenging, and checkpoints are absent.
Multiplayer in Dead Space 2, also known as Outbreak mode, pits two four-player teams of human Sprawl Security forces and the Necromorphs against each other in different locations and scenarios. The Humans complete various mission objectives before time runs out, such as activating escape pods and destroying machines; whilst the Necromorphs simply prevent the Humans from completing said objectives. There are two rounds per match, with each team switching sides at the end of the round. Human player characters start with two weapons in their arsenal, starting with the standard Pulse Rifle and Plasma Cutter, before unlocking new weapons to use. For Humans, new weapons and improvements are unlocked through level progression, along with different suits similar to the ones in single player for the humans. Necromorph players, on the other hand, unlock boosts to their current abilities, health, and damage. Necromorph players can choose the Necromorph they will spawn as: a Lurker, a Puker, a Spitter, or a member of the Pack. In order to use stronger Necromorphs, like the Puker and Spitter, the player must wait for a number of seconds on the respawn screen before that type is usable. Whilst Sprawl Security players spawn in their main spawn areas, Necromorph players spawn through vents and floor panels all over the map, and can choose their spawn point on the spawn screen.
The game begins in an asylum on the Sprawl, a densely populated space station surrounding a shard of Titan, one of Saturn's moons. Isaac Clarke awakens with no memory of the past 3 years since Aegis VII, having just been awoken by Franco Delille (protagonist of Dead Space Ignition), who is attempting to free him. The already-ongoing Necromorph outbreak claims Franco's life, leaving Isaac to escape on his own.
Soon, he is contacted by Daina Le Guin, a woman claiming to have a cure for his "condition". He is also contacted by fellow patient Nolan Stross (a main character from Dead Space: Aftermath), who endured a treatment similar to Isaac's. Daina explains that Sprawl administrator Hans Tiedemann is building a new Marker using information encoded in Isaac and Stross' brains. She also claims that a self-replicating signal was imprinted on Isaac's mind by his previous encounter with the Marker, putting his life in grave danger, which Tiedemann kept in check with memory suppressants. Ignoring Stross, Isaac fights his way through the city (still filled with survivors trying to escape the Necromorphs) to reach Daina. Along the way, Isaac experiences hallucinations of Nicole, which become more vivid as "she" tries to deter him from his task. Upon his arrival, Daina, a Unitologist agent, has Isaac restrained, claiming that they need him to build more Markers to spread Convergence, an event foretold in Unitology, across the universe; however, an EarthGov gunship strikes, killing Daina and her associates and allowing Isaac to escape.
Stross contacts Isaac, claiming that they can destroy the Marker, telling him its location in the Sprawl's Government Sector; left with no choice, Isaac reluctantly decides to trust Stross. As he makes his way there, Isaac comes across Ellie Langford, a CEC pilot who eventually joins their mission. As they travel through the Sprawl, they encounter several obstacles caused by Tiedemann and the Necromorphs, eventually forcing Isaac to venture back inside the Ishimura, which is docked at the Sprawl for decontamination and repair after the events of the first game. Additionally, Stross' dementia worsens, causing him to gouge Ellie's eye out with a screwdriver; she survives, and Isaac kills him in self-defense. After weathering further verbal assaults from Nicole, Isaac comes to accept the guilt of being unable to prevent her death, causing the visions to become benign.
Upon reaching the Government Sector, Isaac sends Ellie away (against her will) on a gunship to protect her. Once inside, he sets the Necromorphs onto Tiedemann's forces near the Marker chamber. When Isaac reaches the Marker, he finds it surrounded by Necromorphs, which triggers Convergence. With Nicole's guidance, he uses the NoonLight Diagnostic Machine, a device which had been used on both himself and Stross prior to the events of the game, activating the parts of his brain that had been affected by the Marker. He fights his way to the Marker, where he encounters and kills Tiedemann. At this point, the Nicole hallucinations pull Isaac into his own mind, revealing that the only way to make the Marker "whole" is to absorb the body and mind of the one who created it — in this case, Isaac himself. Infuriated and betrayed, Isaac destroys "Nicole" and the Marker codes in his mind in a grueling mental battle.
Waking up, Isaac discovers that the Marker has been rendered nonfunctional, and that the accumulated damage to the Sprawl has resulted in its reactors melting down. Isaac slumps to the ground, ready to accept his fate, to be interrupted by Ellie, who crashes the gunship through the ceiling. The two escape as the Sprawl explodes.
In a post-credits scene, an audio transmission is heard between two people: an unknown man and his ranking superior, known only as "the Overseer". The subordinate relays that Titan Station, which he calls "Marker Site 12," and its Marker have been destroyed. The Overseer replies that the other sites will have to pick up the pieces.

Former Strictly Come Dancing star Artem Chigvintsev has denied claims by his one-time dance partner Fern Britton that he mistreated her on the show.
The TV presenter told an event hosted by the Times that Chigvintsev would "kick me or shove me" during rehearsals for the BBC1 series.
But the Russian-born dancer, who left the show last year, said her comments came as a "shock".
Britton, 57, told an audience: "He would look at my feet and just kick me or shove me. He was like, 'Shut your face. Go home before I kill you.'
"I would say, 'Oh please just kill me, it would be easier.' Or what was his other one? 'If you go for a cup of tea now, I will blow off like an atomic bomb.' I thought, well I won't correct him on that one.
"We did love each other for a moment or two but he wasn't charm personified. I did kind of enjoy it but it was grim at the same time."
The 32-year-old, who now appears on Dancing With The Stars in the US, said: "Recent statements apparently made by Fern Britton, whilst not reflecting any situation I recognise, are difficult to ignore.
"I believe I treated Fern with respect and genuine care, and these claims about me are the opposite of everything I believe in and the person I am.
"I cannot imagine what has prompted such statements which come as a shock to me. I just want to thank all my fans and friends for their support and belief in me."
The pair eventually finished 10th in the 2012 competition.
At the time of her elimination, she told him: "Artem, I've loved it. I wouldn't have swapped you for anything. There have been highs and lows, we've got to know each other pretty well, and I do adore you."

by Rick K. for webBikeWorld.com
This book really should have been (and maybe was) the revision of Twist I, rather than a separate volume.
I'm not sure why the author keeps the two books alive; perhaps the original is still selling well.
Twist II is much more useful to the street rider, as it incorporates most of the original book and more.
It also doesn't seem quite as outdated, and although written in a similar style, it seems to be a more compelling read.
I especially liked the notion of "thinking slower to go faster", and the chapters on the problems of rider input to the controls and the bike.
The book has one quirk though -- after each chapter, there is a glossary of terms used in the preceding text.
Some of the definitions are not specific to the book and are taken right from a dictionary -- is it really necessary to have definitions of words like "grim", "compliant" and "buffeting"?
The only message I can take away from this is that the author feels that motorcycle riders are lacking in their reading and comprehension skills -- a bit of an insult.
Glossary aside, this is a worthwhile book for motorcyclists intent on improving their street (and track) riding savvy.

While a conman individual may just embrace the approaching year as a step forward or fear of growing old, here are some of the most popular insight about New Year celebrations declared by the celebrities and some unknowns.

"A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one Year and out the other."-Anonymous
"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." -Oprah Winfrey
"It wouldn't be New Year's if I didn't have regrets." -William Thomas

Education reform will take center stage at a Del Norte Tea Party Patriots forum tonight.
Holly Swanson, an Oregon critic of the Green Party and author of "Set Up and Sold Out" and "Training for Treason," will speak about the new Common Core State Standards, which are set to be implemented in California for the 2014andndash;15 school year.
The California Board of Education adopted the Common Core Standards in 2010. Forty-five states are in the process of implementing the new standards. Local school boards will still determine their district's curriculum and what their students learn in the classroom, Nancy Brownell said in September. Brownell is tasked by the California Department of Education to help local districts with the transition. She met with Del Norte County Unified School District administrators and teachers in August.
As part of the Common Core, students will focus more on writing, including informational writing, according to local education officials. At the elementary level, teachers will focus more attention on informational texts rather than literature.
The Tea Party Patriots forum will be held from 6andndash;8 p.m. today in the floral building at the Del Norte Fairgrounds.

text: Apologies in advance - many questions! I'm sure these have been asked many a time, so apologies for the repetition, but I can't locate quite what I'm looking for; which is a definitive guide (for numpties) to upgrading the OS (from 1.6 to 2.1) on the XperiaX10, keeping, as best as possible, all your current configuration (see below). Last time, when SEUS prompted me to upgrade, there was no warning and I lost everything. So, is it actually possible to keep everything? For example: Keeping apps, together with their status and configuration - i.e. my Angry bird stars or my ESPN sports settings Keeping widgets with all their set-up, i.e. London Underground live time widgets for specific stations, my shares, everything I've spent ages setting up for many many apps Keeping all ADW Launcher configuration, themes etc. Keeping Handscent text configuration, contact pictures etc. and the system settings that mean I use handscent, not stock, that I use my own keyboard, not stock, etc. etc. Keeping contacts with all their associated numbers and pictures, ring tones and text tones assigned using tone picker and handscent apps. Keeping text history etc. Basically, keeping everything as it is now. Like you can upgrade a PC from one service pack to the next without worrying, and everything is how you left it on the PC! I've heard stories that the standard "Backup and Restore" app has problems when going from 1.6 to 2.1 and things are "lost" - and that you shouldn't rely wholly on it. I've been told about apps like "MyBackup Pro", but also told that they are buggy. Which ones are best in your opinions, or easiest for a beginner to use? I've been told that stuff on the SD card remains untouched by the upgrade; but how do I know what is on my SD card, and what is on the phone and what is on the sim? File Manager doesn't seem to specifically say what is where. What can I move without affecting the working of the phone. Is there a decent guide on this site that I have missed, in a dedicated thread? Sorry for so many questions. I really want to upgrade my phone to 2.1; but I don't want to have to spend ages afterwards re-downloading everything and setting everything up and spending countless nights being anti-social in the pub trying to get my Angry Birds stars back! Thanks for listening.

""Gmail Motion will free the regular user from the constraints that modern society and our interfaces with our machines have put on the human body," she says.
A link on Google's home page directs a user to the blog post explaining Gmail Motion, which promises to "turn your email into a true body of work."
Google is renowned for its April Fool's jokes, which over the years have included job applications for positions on the Moon and the revelation that its Internet search rankings are compiled by pigeons.

I got the Hootsuite April fool's email today...the subject line was 'confidential', and in the email they stated how they're switching platforms, abandoning Hootsuite, and launching a game app called "happy owls".
A few minutes later, a follow-up email came stating to disregard the email as it was only for 'friends and investors'.
Got me to chuckle

Walking the Walk | Becoming Green
I went to a spectacular lecture today at the U. S. Arboretum. I found out about it because I recently joined the Arboretum as a Friend for the mere pittance of a $35 contribution. I encourage all my buddies out there to join and attend some programs with me. This was the program I saw. Below the announcement, I have written up some notes to share about some pretty exciting advancements in
Measuring Sustainability in the Garden
Dr. Steven Windhager
There is a great deal of talk about creating sustainable gardens, but how do we assess the level of sustainability in a garden? The SSI (Sustainable Sites Initiative) has been formed to provide guidelines and performance benchmarks for those who want to create and measure sustainable landscapes. The goal is to quantitatively asses the attributes of all types of sites in order to measure success in maintaining or improving the health of an ecosystem. Learn about the SSI, including what it is, why it is needed and how it affects public gardens and other landscapes.
Dr. Windhager is the director of the Landscape Restoration Program at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center and serves on the Steering Committee and as Technical Advisor for the SSI. His expertise includes Sustainable Site Design, Ecological Restoration, and Urban Ecology.
Lecture Notes |
On average, 30 to 65% of a family's daily potable water is used in landscaping (what a bummer to learn this!). Strategic planting of 1 canopy tree can eventually conserve 25% of a home's energy use. We all need to think macro in order to make actual gains in living greenly. Conservation is all well and good, but, we have the opportunity to reverse some of the detrimental impact we've had on our own environment in terms of climate change by designing "sustainable" landscapes, big and little.
To achieve true sustainability, we must satisfy 3 intersecting criteria: economic vitality, social acceptability, environmentally sound science. In other words a yard needs to be affordable, look great and add up to a sum gain in energy use when you consider ALL factors in it's creation and care. He gave the example of a commercial property where a pond for storm water abatement is put behind a building and fenced off with ugly chain link. While this pond may, at first, do it's job, it's been shown that it is soon ignored and then not maintained properly, falls into dis-repair and soon enough is no longer effective.
So it's important to measure carefully and precisely. That's where the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center came in. Maybe a decade ago, they wanted to become LEED certified (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design), but there they found there were no benchmarks for landscape design similar to those developed for architecture and building. So they began working on guidelines for sustainable methods and benchmarks for performance in landscape design. The Sustainable Sites Initiative, a system where "credits" are appointed for design that meets particular criteria (available at www.sustainablesites.org/.) They encourage design that for example, uses very little or no potable water for irrigation (only gray water like captured A/C condensation) and keeps storm water from ever running off a site and much, much more. They even give credit for plastic pot recycling programs. This initiative also shows how to measure sum gains realistically. Dr. Windhager spoke a lot about assessing the starting point of any site. Is it a 'Green", "Grey" or "Brown Field"? A Green Field describes a site that has no previous building on it. A Grey Field is a site that has had building but is not contaminated with any toxic chemicals, and you can guess what a Brown Field is.
He also said that the costs of sustainable design are front loaded in the design phase, but can often be built for less. He recommends that every project include a Soil Plan that addresses potential compaction, how it may be mitigated or how bulk density may be restored and to bring organic matter to acceptable or improved levels.
The guy was a wealth of knowledge in this realm and explained everything clearly. If you ever get a chance to hear him speak, please do. One of his most potent pieces of advice: Never Ever Use PEET. It traps too much carbon in the soil. Enjoy.

Adele, Thanks so much for recapping. We in the biz should be considering sustainability and responsible water use with every project, and meanwhile educating our clients in all this as well.

Attachment Theory And Treating Oppositional Defiant Dysfunction
In one experiment , researchers confirmed preschoolers and undergraduates quite a lot of blocks, a few of which made a machine light up and play music. In fact, you need to re-think about so you can fit your parenting obligations into your ardour. Youngster-rearing books speak about all of those points at length; by studying little one-rearing books, you may have the capacity to document your child's development and decide if there are milestones that she or he has missed or cannot obtain. Different individuals's experiences may not mirror yours, however they'll deliver perception into quite a lot of totally different techniques which will be applied to your parenting issues.
Meanwhile, we'll plan on masking fewer carbs on concert band nights, and/or setting a brief basal fee. I taught classes on using Fb and Twitter in science after I worked at NASA. Freed from the burden of making an attempt to manufacture life-change in our kids's hearts, we are able to embrace a grand perspective of parenting overflowing with vision, purpose, and pleasure. As a programs coordinator for Noel Janis-Norton, one in all my job benefits is to be able to attend her Calmer, Easier, Happier Parenting seminars in Southern California.
This hub is my tribute to all you parents, the place I marry classic psychology with the parenting experience. It may be extraordinarily helpful to have somebody you belief explore options for parenting and train you parenting skills you have got never been uncovered to.
