So like, this is a Flash that has you moving little idea objects into the little heads of little ol' people who turn green when you feed them thoughts. When you feed the people ideas, they then poop out more ideas -- literally, off the top of their heads. A vacuum cleaner called capitalism keeps sucking up ideas to feed to the passive consumers, who have turned gray. By moving your mouse around to herd the ideas to the people, you keep the mojo flowing and eventually become the John Lennon/V for Vendetta guy of the game world, turning it into some kind of user-created-content lovefest. It's like the end of The Invisibles, but not as vivid.Free Culture (Thanks, Greg!)
The argument seems to be this: When ideas are shared, everyone gets richer, because the total number of ideas tends to increase in a recombinant explosion of creativity. Copyright is kind of fallacious, because all patterns of information are by default in the commons of vast, unexplored or previously explored possibility space. Ideas only become intellectual property when someone takes them out of the commons and stamps a (C) on it. The game is basically inviting you to say: "Fuck that!"
1996 McDonalds Hamburger
The burger on the right, off the paper is a 2008 burger. I had to buy it to get the groovy paper and bag. The meat is a tad darker, the bun a little less golden but in 12 years it will look exactly like that too. Do you find this horrifying? McDonalds fills an empty space in your belly. It does nothing to nourish the cell, it is not a nutritious food. It is not a treat. I marvel at how McDonalds has infiltrated our entire world. A hamburger here tastes exactly the same in China or some around the world place.
Andrew Sullivan, with whom I agree not all of the time, but do this time, says this about the CBS News interview embedded above: "All you can say is: unbelievable. Except it's true. She is the vice-presidential candidate of a national political party. Seriously." Transcript here, last night's edition is here.

China successfully launched the Shenzhou VII spacecraft today, in the country's third manned space mission in five years. Snip from New York Times article:
The three-day mission is part of Project 921, China's ambitious manned space program, and was expected to include the country's first attempt at a space walk, which would make China only the third country to accomplish the feat, after Russia and the United States.China Launches Space Walk Mission (NYT), and the Wikipedia article for Shenzhou V11 has lots of details. Or, go straight to China's state-run news agency Xinhua's Shenzhou VII coverage. Among the Xinhua articles is one celebrating the spread of the neologism "taikonaut"...
The Chinese government has spent billions of dollars in recent years building up a space program that it hopes will establish a space station by 2020 and eventually put a man on the moon.
The word is a hybrid of the Chinese term "taikong" (space) and the Greek "naut" (traveler), or astronaut, according to the Concise Oxford English Dictionary. Another variation on the term is "cosmonaut", coined during the Soviet space era.
"Taikonauts" a sign of China's growing global influence (xinhuanet.com)
Now that I've got a toe in the door at BoingBoing, I'm going to pitch them hard on a longer-term relationship. The regular bloggers' positions are pretty well filled, but there are some opportunities for a bit of engaged cultural critique and collective problem solving - especially as BoingBoing expands into BBTV, IRC, and other forms of media.
I know what I'm hoping to accomplish. Here's a snip from my first pitch email to Xeni:
Interactive, interpersonal meadia can not only expose the artificial nature of the entities currently in control of the social and economic landscape - they can restore human agency, create the right conversations, connect people, and fight fear with fun.
Happy mutants are not unaware of the problems plaguing mankind, but they are committed to confronting them through collective, uninhibited, engineered transformation (mutation) and light-hearted, kind, and amused interactions (happiness).
So, I want to create pieces that initiate the conversations and behaviors that engage people in these processes. Each one would be the beginning of a discussion, and part of an expanding wiki of resources, supporting material, and user-generated content. A piece on "local currency" would branch out to embrace the local currency efforts, discussions, and tools out there. How *does* a person create a currency for his or her town? And where are the other people interested in doing this? Who has the best solar solutions, the most interesting way of organizing labor, the best free local Wi-Max network? Let's talk to the CEO's of GE and BP about their green efforts, and whether they believe their own hype. How about urban planning? Bike lanes? Ads on school buses and Coke machines in the cafeteria? What's in those textbooks, anyway?
This isn't pure 60's or Whole Earth radicalism and self-sufficiency (though it's certainly related) but a 21st Century, cyberpunk reclamation of all technologies and social contracts as essentially open source, up for discussion, and open to modification. It's an application of the hacker ethic and net collectivism to everything, done in the spirit of fun and adventure.
The question is, which medium? Instinctually, I'm drawn towards radio, which would enable interviews and live call-in. Is this hopelessly old fashioned, or is it a reflection of the bias of radio compared with TV? Is there a way to do video that's as interactive as voice? Or should interaction be kept on the margins of something more produced and standalone? More importantly, what sort of resource or engagement would you prefer (if any)? This is for you, after all.

What are some other examples of how seemingly abstract thoughts, such as feeling excluded, can have physical manifestations?Metaphors of the Mind (SciAm)
ZHONG: Another example would be the relation between morality and physical cleanliness. In my early work "Washing Away Your Sins: Threatened Morality and Physical Cleansing" in collaboration with Katie Liljenquist [a professor of organizational behavior at Brigham Young University], we discussed how metaphors such as "dirty hands" or "clean records" may have a psychological basis such that people make sense of morality through physical cleanliness.
When people's moral self image is threatened, as when they think about their own unethical past behaviors, people literally experience the need to engage in physical cleansing, as if the moral stain is literally physical dirt. We tested this idea in multiple studies and showed that when reminded of their past moral transgressions, people were more likely to think about cleansing-related words such as "wash" and "soap", expressed stronger preference for cleansing products (for instance, a soap bar), and were also more likely to accept an antiseptic wipe as a free gift (rather than a pencil with equal value).
Further, physical cleansing may actually be effective in mentally getting rid of moral sins. In another study, in which participants who recalled unethical behaviors were either given a chance to cleanse their hands or not, we found that washing hands not only assuaged moral emotions such as guilt and regret but also reduced participants' willingness to engage in prosocial behaviors such as volunteering Thus physical washing can actually wash away sins. Perhaps this effect is why most world religions practice some form of washing rituals to purify souls. We should be cautious, however, knowing that if our sins are so easily "washed away" we might not be as motivated to engage in actual compensatory behaviors to make up for our mistakes.
Looking for an opportunity to explain whether a shared sense of identity reduces an e-mailer's impulse to lie, Belkin and her colleagues set up a second, related study of 69 full-time MBA students. The results of that study indicated that the more familiar e-mailers are with each other, the less deceptive their lies would be."Researcher: Workers more prone to lie in e-mail" (Lehigh University)
Bu they would still lie, regardless of how well they identified with each other.
In recent years, researchers who have compared e-mail to other modes of communication have found it to be associated with such unattractive behaviors as lower interpersonal trust, more negative attitudes, and, perhaps most notoriously, a greater penchant for "flaming"–sending messages that are offensive, embarrassing, or rude.
But in trying to account for the difference between two communication modes that appear similar, the researchers surmise in their report that people may "feel written documents carry stronger legal consequences than do e-mails, which feel fleeting in nature, despite the fact that they are actually harder to erase or contain. Thus, deception may be viewed differently in these two environments."
The new E.cig smokes like a real cigarette and users get a shot of nicotine every time they inhale."Pub uses electronic cigarettes to beat the smoking ban" (The Telegraph)
The device even produces a cloud of water vapour with every puff, though causes no harm to smokers...
(Proprietor Chris) Giles said: "When it's freezing outside and chucking it down with rain it's a good alternative to going outside for a cigarette.
"We built a smoking shelter, but it's just not the same for smokers who have been marginalised by the ban...
"Luckily we can tell people aren't really trying to light up because the electronic ones are black in colour with a blue light," (says bar assistant manager Becky Giles.)
But since we're only in the first couple of weeks, I've got nothing to show here. Instead, I'm delighted to share a project by a co-conspirator at ITP, Marianne Petit (the teacher who moderated the discussion between me and Scott McCloud at Comic-con this year) has been curating, hosting, and promoting some marvelously obsessive art shows.
This one, by Matt Belanger, Sean Riley, and Ven Voisey, is called Lumens, and collects lamps from people of two separate neighborhoods, bringing them together in a single reactive space. There's nothing like seeing a baby light up from the inside when you get close.
Scores of personal lamps that usually inhabit and illuminate the interiors of homes and shops have been borrowed from the residents of Adams and North Adams, Massachusetts, filling two gallery spaces: Greylock Arts in Adams and MCLA Gallery 51 Annex in North Adams. In addition to the lamps, the personal stories and histories that accompany the lamps have also been collected. These are represented in a virtual gallery on turbulence.org, which also serves to connect the two locations telematically. As an individual wanders through the gallery space, clusters of lamps illuminate in response to their presence and simultaneously illuminate lamps in the counterpart spaces. It is in this way that an individual in Adams can communicate his/her presence to an individual in North Adams, and vice versa. Additionally, as visitors investigate the history of a particular lamp online it also illuminates in the physical gallery space.

A front page story in the New York Times today begins:
Senior White House officials played a central role in deliberations in the spring of 2002 about whether the Central Intelligence Agency could legally use harsh interrogation techniques while questioning an operative of Al Qaeda, Abu Zubaydah, according to newly released documents."Harsh interrogation techniques"? I know our current president and his administration wants to distance from the "t-word," but why are we, the people and the press, afraid to just call torture torture? Link to related items in the Times about the CIA's destruction of tapes that document the use of torture in the Zubaydah case, Salon has this related piece, also good background reading. Even this former CIA agent who believes torture is helpful calls it "torture." What kind of cowards are we? (via Dan Gillmor)
In meetings during that period, the officials debated specific interrogation methods that the C.I.A. had proposed to use on Qaeda operatives held at secret C.I.A. prisons overseas, the documents show. The meetings were led by Condoleezza Rice, then the national security adviser, and attended by Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, Attorney General John Ashcroft and other top administration officials
Our pal Bonnie Burton from LucasFilm says: "Our very own Starwars.com designer Craig Drake created this AWESOME '80s-inspired Princess Leia poster!" Snip from the description:
For the uninitiated (or too young to remember), artist Craig Drake's "The Princess" artwork is reminiscent of the pervasive style of illustrator Patrick Nagel, whose posters and prints became fixtures of interior design during the 1980s (older fans might remember the artist's famous cover illustration for Duran Duran's Rio album from 1982). There's also a hint of the guitar-strumming vamps of Robert Palmer's classic '80s "Addicted to Love" music video.Read more about it here, y it here (Starwars.com). Why this is so beautiful and so eighties: it's a sort of Patrick Nagel tribute.
We asked Drake what inspired him to render Leia, another '80s icon, in the era's signature style. "Like a lot of Star Wars fans having grown up in the '80s, I was exposed to some amazing signature pop culture visuals," says Drake, who suggests Nagel's style probably came closest to representing the fashion and oppulence of the '80s. "Truthfully, his style really annoyed me as a kid, but as time went on I began rediscovering his work -- his brilliantly minimalist yet bold vision of beautiful, strong women is what inspired me to illustrate Princess Leia."

Hi Everyone,
I just wanted to let all West Palm Beach People know of a great raw restaurant my daugher and I went to yesterday! It is located in Lake Worth on Lake Street and is so delightful and unique that if you are in the area I know you would want to try it! I got a Zuchinni Lasagna and also a Mexican Dip with some great sprouted crackers. My daughter got a mango and strawberry/bananna smoothie. You can even eat outside on the little back dinning area. The people were great and so helpful! I am not advertising for them but just wanted to share my experience!

When will the world end? Is there a New World Order Coming? Who is the Antichrist? Why is there a hell? Why does Satan even exist? What is the nature of God? Why am I here? Where did I come from? How old is the Universe? How and why was it created? Who or what are the Illuminati? What about demons, ghosts, and aliens? How did I end up in paradise instead of the pit? What if you could know the answers to life's greatest questions? What if you could know the future? This would be the ultimate journey for most, a virtuous and wondrous trip through space and time to answer the big questions and experience the glory of heaven and Earth. But through the eyes of the often irreverent and confused George Somerset, it is a sad, horrific, and satirical misadventure, a black comedy for Christians and nonbelievers alike. Read the first few pages and begin a journey you will never forget...

AMERICA/MEXICO - "Do not close the homeless shelter for migrants" asks the Bishop of Celaya
Guanajuato (Agenzia Fides) - The Bishop of the Diocese of Celaya, in the state of Guanajuato (Mexico), His Exc. Mgr. José Benjamín Castillo Plascencia, has publicly asked the Commune not to close the "Manos Abiertas a los Necesitados" homeless shelter for migrants and complained that the lack of a requirement, such as permission for the use of land, becomes an excuse for ceasing to provide such a necessary service.
The note sent to Fides from a local source reports the words of the Bishop during a meeting with reporters: "I believe that we all have to help and make things easier. I want to launch an appeal to the Commune to acknowledge that these social needs are important. I think we all need to help migrants, because it is not a simple problem. If, for some reason, that is not the right place, you must provide another place. Until now, our support to migrants has been insufficient, moreover, the problem of migration is already well-known and controversial. Yet we cannot establish our laws, and not even the United States of America... everything becomes complicated, we must try to solve the problem, and not providing this service is not a solution".
Guanajuato is the capital of the state of Mexico, and is located 370 km north-west of Mexico City, in 2005 the population was 70.798 inhabitants. At the end of April, a group of religious advocates of human rights and migrants, led by Father Alejandro Solalinde visited the hostel "Manos abiertas a los necesitados", which in little more than a year of service has welcomed more than 3,200 migrants in transit to the northern border and the United States.
In the city, there is no harassment of migrants, there are no reports of extortion against them or abuses by the police. Alberto Perez Quiroga, President of the safety of the city Commisssion told the local press: "In Celaya we work hand in hand with the Institute of emigration to address the issue of migrants. According to the report of Public Safety we have, migrants who are not authorized are sent back home, since many want to stay in Celaya. Our action is not specifically against immigrants, but against people who cannot sell or live on the street asking for money". (CE) (Agenzia Fides 17/06/2014)

I have been trying to implement this http://snipplr.com/view.php?codeview&id=42802 using two 200/100 sprites but the results are totally unexpected.
The card flies from the start, towards the right, then comes back to the start and halfway it flips. While the effect itself looks nice, the problem is with rotatingY property and z property.
I tried making a simple sprite rotating with some perspective and the anchor point seems to NOT be the 0,0 origin. From what I read it has something to do with the parent but I can't put my finger on it.
Thus my issue: How do I make a card flip using TweenLite? It would suffice using TweenLite to flip a sprite, on its Y axis, with the focal point at the center of the card.

The City's over-the-year picture was positive, with every sector except manufacturing adding jobs for the 12 months through February 2015. The city's over-the-year private sector growth rate (+2.9 percent) was above comparable rates at the state (+2.0 percent) and national (+2.8 percent) levels.
The city's seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate was 6.6 percent in February 2015, up slightly from January, but down 1.3 percentage points compared to last February. New York State's rate was 5.8 percent in February 2015. The share of the city's working-age population (16+) who were employed was 56.8 percent in February 2015, up 1.0 percent from the same time last year. The number of New York City residents with jobs climbed 96,600 (+2.6 percent) in the last 12 months. The over-the-year decline in the unemployment rate occurred even as New York City's labor force grew by 1.1 percent.

Wynton plays in the new Marc O'Connnor album
"In Full Swing" is Mark O'Connor's tribute to Stephane Grappelli, the musician he describes as "my biggest violin hero." His band, the Hot Swing Trio, features bassist Jon Burr, who toured with Grappelli for years, and guitarist Frank Vignola, one of the finest American players in the Django Reinhardt tradition. The basic trio are expanded with Wynton Marsalis and vocalist Jane Monheit guest starring on three and four tracks, respectively. Wynton adds a distinctive voice to standards such as Tiger Rag as he slips and slides between classical and jazz modes. But the collaboration between the trio and… Keep reading »

All Rise in stores now
In stores October 1, 2002, the Sony Classical release of Wynton Marsalis' 'All Rise' comes more than five years after his epic oratorio 'Blood on the Fields' won the Pulitzer Prize for Music. 'All Rise,' however, cannot be considered simply a follow-up. In fact, Marsalis first began developing the ideas behind 'All Rise' ten years ago, and viewed 'Blood on the Fields' as a step in an artistic progression that would allow him to ultimately craft his 12-movement masterpiece Wynton Marsalis's "All Rise": Ten Years In the Making Two-CD, twelve-movement jazz/orchestral piece draws on the entirety of Marsalis's diverse… Keep reading »

Philips: United way offers solutions
United Way is about giving a hand up to people who are struggling. It is about turning the curve in our community and helping to improve lives. United Way is me, you, your neighbor, your teacher, your children. United Way is a way to make a difference, a way to look at community challenges from fresh and innovative perspectives. United Way is a convener, a collaborator and a problem solver.
How does United Way make a difference?
United Way makes a difference by involving the people that matter most — you — the experts. Whether the experts are parents, because they know the issues their children are facing, or whether the expert is a Ph.D. who researches generational poverty, we convene people from our own community to define the problem, implement ideas and create solutions.
United Way then gets the resources needed to work toward the solutions. Frameworks are developed into strategies that will work in our community. The results are what give families hope, a child a brighter future and our community a better place to live and thrive. The results are what make United Way United Way.
Who does United Way help?
A story about hope, perseverance and success is the best way to explain who United Way helps — for example, the story of Sarah.
Sarah was a motivated and hardworking mother of four who was living a good, middle-income life. Sarah had a good job, as did her husband, and she felt fulfilled in her life. The prevention frameworks and strategies United Way develops were not ones Sarah ever felt were meant for her.
One day, Sarah's world crashed around her when she learned her husband was filing for divorce. Sarah was afraid — afraid of how she would care for her children on one income, afraid of how she would support and nurture their growth on her own.
Sarah was not one to give up. The stubborn trait that often had landed her in trouble in her youth now was proving to be a trait that pushed her to survive. In a short period, Sarah went from not having to worry about providing for her children to worrying about from where their next meal would come.
At the height of her difficulties, Sarah was forgoing food for herself to ensure her children were nourished. She was struggling to pay her bills, and with every month that passed, Sarah was sinking further and further into debt. This is when Sarah heard about the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program.
The VITA program, a service made possible by your North Texas Area United Way, was offering to prepare taxes for free for low- to moderate-income families. Sarah was excited to learn she could save money by not having to pay tax preparation fees elsewhere.
She had confidence in the service when she learned all volunteers are certified by the IRS.
What Sarah did not know was the purpose of the VITA program: to ensure that hardworking families who qualify receive their Earned Income Tax Credit. VITA volunteers are trained in critically analyzing tax information to ensure families receive all tax credits they are eligible for.
Sarah went to her VITA appointment excited to get the free help with her taxes and left expecting a $6,000 refund to arrive shortly that raised her and her children out of poverty.
Please help us. Help each other. Get involved. Become a part of the solution and vow to make a difference in our community.

It is an ordeal trying to get...
It is an ordeal trying to get bottled water in Amsterdam. The first 'Albert Heljn' shop you see (a kind of supermarket) buy about 10 x 1.5 litres of STILL (not sparkling) spring water and carry them straight to your room. They charge 60 cents for each bottle.
I was dying of thirst on the Damrak and in desperation went into one of the souvenir shops. The woman at the till merrily typed in 2 Euros 75 Cents for the bottle (over a 350% markup!)
Amsterdam is a tourist trap
Awww... don't hit me for saying that!
As a citizen who is proud of her country, I beg you, don't just visit Amsterdam!
I know, Amsterdam is fun, lively, breathtaking, multicultural and all that. But please explore the width and heigth of this small country where the longest distance that you can drive is only 3 hours.
How about:
-our famous waterworks in the province Zeeland (Neeltje Jans)
-the St. Jan cathedral in 's Hertogenbosch which is of the well known French grandeur, style and size
-national park Hoge Veluwe where you can get free bikes to cycle round and visit St. Hubertus hunting lodge, an example of world famous architecture by Berlage
- one of the world's best zoo's in Emmen (called Noorderdierenpark)
- the typical flat landscape in the province Friesland of true postcard beauty
- little seaside towns like Middelburg, Hellevoetsluis, Brielle, Scheveningen, Zandvoort, Staveren, Harlingen...
- Groninger museum in Groningen (the city is great for a few days out as well)
- Gouda (known for its cheese, although not made there anymore) where you'll find another St. Jan with the largest stained glass collection in the world
- Rotterdam with great nightlife, modern and old architecture, multicultural neighbourhoods, museums and the mighty river Maas
- a tour fortified towns from the Middle Ages in The Netherlands (like my hometown Brielle in Europoort)
- Three country point (Drielandenpunt) down south where you can be in Germany/Belgium and The Netherlands at the same time (if you MUST go abroad!)
- Maastricht with its savoir-vivre and the grottoes and great night- en streetlife and culinary delights.
- shall I go on?
Just visit my travelogues and travelpages about the other Dutch cities!
The biggest museum in...
The biggest museum in Amsterdam is the Rijksmuseum, and being the tourist that I am I was excited to go see it. But it was so large that I couldn't find my way around easily, and it just ended up being too much money for what I did see. If you have a lot of time in the city, though, wander through and see what there is. It just wouldn't be my first recommendation for people visiting for a weekend.
Euro Bar - I should have known...
Euro Bar - I should have known better as I was used to the currency, but I got ripped of at the 'Euro Bar' in Dam Square. They charged me almost NLG20 for a beer and a cola! Price should have beeen closer to NLG10. Oh well, it was still cheaper than London!!
Ok one thing to watch out for....
Ok one thing to watch out for. Amsterdam is a safe city I think - but and it is a big BUT, while there I think we were offered illegal drugs (cocaine etc) about 5 times or more in the space of about an hour. Have a bit of sense, just say no - if you don't you run the risk of being mugged, ripped off or worse. If you really must try hash then do it in the coffee shops - you can't miss them. Oh and some of them do brilliant G&T's.
Heart Broken!!
This restaurant is owned by thieves! We had to learn this fact at our own expense!Please dont let it also happen to you!
We niavley went to this novelty restaurant and not only was the food and service of very poor standard but above all we had our video camera stolen from us, vertually in front of our eyes!
We were the only ones dinning in the restaurant, we had our food and got up to leave and literally before we were 2 metres away realised id left my camera on the table, and went back in to retreive it....it had vanished into thin air within a matter of seconds!!
I asked the waiter, he looked at me very strangley and said he had not seen a camera!! The manager then came over and shouted at me in a very threatening way and repeated the the same as what the waiter had said and ushered us to leave!!
Unique Suggestions: To say the least we were heart broken as our camera had sentimental footage sorted on it. Anyway please avoid going to this place....unless you strap all your belongings to yourself!!
Fun Alternatives: Aoid this place like the plague! Daarbaand persian restaurant, Amsterdam.Related to:
- Family Travel
- Food and Dining
- Women's Travel
Techno Music
Here's a poster I saw advertising what may or may not be for Techno music,whatever that endless looped /drum machine based stuff is.`. I lean more towards reggae/latin jazz flavors. Anyway, it's only my opinion of the stuff.
Getting into Holland
I went to India through Amsterdam because I wanted to visit the beautiful country of Holland and took a 7 hour stopover. But I was not allowed entry into the city because I did not have a visa, inspite of the fact that I am a landed Canadian Immigrant. All I wanted to do was take the 2 hours city tour.
Unique Suggestions: Get a visa!
Fun Alternatives: Take a trip in the airport! There is a casino and a museum to entertain you.Related to:
- Museum Visits
- Casino and Gambling
Hey guys, if u will ever visit a smartshop DO NOT try anithing called herbal extracts. For example I was trying to understand the difference between Liquid C (they are saying, this *** gives u a coke feeling) and Liquid X (XTC-like). There is NO difference! It contains a LOT of coffeine and can give u a heart attack.
Unique Suggestions: Eat a lot of sugar, and a glass of whiskey - it helped me. May be it will help u...
Fun Alternatives: Better try a couple of Red Bull or, at least, take a mushroom. But *** this liquid extracts!Related to:
- Backpacking
- Budget Travel
You should have known
While Amsterdam is a city tailor made for the cyclists, it has it's own pitfalls. Once you land up in Amsterdam you might be fooled into believing that cycling is the national sport, but it isn't so. Cycle theft is the national sport. You might buy a 60 eruos second hand cycle and might end up investing another 60 euros or more just for the 'secure' locks.
You might be approached by a total stranger on a cycle offering his ride to you for 10 euros. You might even get tempted to take his offer given your short stay and the flip side of higher daily rents for cycles. But don't. If caught, you are at equal fault as the thief and the penalty is not very pretty. Plus when the buying stops, the stealing too will stop.
Fun Alternatives: Don't ever indulge in or entertain such anti-social elementsRelated to:
- Cycling
Calling using credit card option in public phones
Do not even think about using the credit card option which let's you place a phone call using your credit card from public telephones in Amsterdam airport. I just recevived the bill, a 15-second call ( I left a message on an answering machine) to a number in the US cost me 21,65 euros. The telephone company running this scam is infona.com (http://www.infonaa.com) and the number one has to call in the Netherlands to use their "service" is 00-800-99461355.
Fun Alternatives: Buy a telephone card from a newsstand even if it cost ten euros and you wil use only part of the credit it will surely be cheaper than using your credit card or just use coins if you have them.
I learned that it pays to be alert while travelling... quite literally!
I was on my way back to Delhi by the morning KLM flight. Checked in, been thru passport control, etc etc. An announcement on the PA system- calling out for a voulenteer who would give up his/her seat on the flight today, and get 300 euros, accomodation/ food, and a confirmed ticket for the next days flight...
Sleepy me couldnt quite figure which flight they were talking about... i ignored it.
The stakes got higher... nobody seemed to have taken the offer up. 350, 450, 500, 600 euros! Plus accomodation etc etc... When it went up to 600, and i finally heard it inside the aircraft after i boarded, i realised it was for the flight i was on! Too late though, by the time my numbed early morning responses showed up, someone two seats up, beat me to it! AAAH!! Lottery!!
I had wanted to spend a few days extra in Amsterdam, couldnt get KLM in Delhi to extend my ticket by a day... now i miss out on this!! Luck:((
Unique Suggestions: Sleep early, stay alert, grab that chance!:PRelated to:
- Business Travel
magna plaza
geez i have no idea why someone would like to spend time or money (alot of it) there - just a small but overpriced mall....lol - i dont need to take a flight to get this...but i must say...its a beautifull building..
Take care of your boat
so it will not sink....but luckily there s some person outthere who can, as this sticker says, make your submarine a boat again.
Not a tourist trap, but you...
Not a tourist trap, but you can feel somewhat traped by some of the pedestrian only streets. Don't worry, you can always find your way out!

I have a WHS running on a Gigabyte ATX board with a quad core AMD Phenom processor and currently 8 SATA hard drives in a Lian-Li tower case.
I have now finally gotten around to creating some space to install a rack for all the IT gear so I want to move the server into the rack and I need to find a rack mountable case.
I want to avoid having to replace any components, I just want to move everything into the new case.
I have found the Supermicro SC822T-400LP at a great price and it seems to fit my need perfectly. But I have a few questions for you server experts. I have built tons of PCs but I know little about this enterprise hardware.
Thanks in advance.

Flowers used to make Fingernail 'Stain'?
I was visitng with a neighbor who is Korean. She was looking for a pink flower from her youth. She recalled that her mother used a flower that she crushed & mixed with vinegar & a bit of charcoal. Then they wrapped it over their nails & kept it overnite. This 'dyed' their nails for the summer and they absolutely loved it! It sounds so fun!
Have you ever heard of dying nails like this?
Does anyone have any clue which flowers might be used for this?
I hope we can find it and do something like it this summer with my girls. I think it would be wonderful.
Hi there, I have read in "A Dream of the Red Mansions" (a Qing Dynasty/19th century Chinese novel) that bright red impatiens were used by women to colour their finger nails.
According to one passage in the book, apply the crushed flowers generously on the nails and leave them in place for "a while," then carefully remove the flowers. The finger nails "will be stained."
I haven't tried this so let me know if it works ;-) Have fun!
Maybe this is the pink flower your Korean neighbour is thinking of: Hydrocera trifolia or water balsam or water henna. See
My mother is Korean and when I was a little girl, we used to use the rose balsam to color our nails. Happy memories :) She still grows them year after year. The red variety makes the best polish.

Very nice. I bought it for my friends 40th birthday and she loved it.
Anonymous, Morton Grove, IL – January 2015
I was hesitant to buy this teardrop because blue nile can be a bit vague on the actual size of its jewlery, are they measuring from the top or the ring at the top ect. I had the matching earrings and wanted the complete set..but real couldn't make out if it was bigger then the tear drop earrings. I'm happy to say it is and made my top list of iteams to wear. I left off a star because of the chain length I prefer a longer one..

Beautiful necklace. Makes a great gift.

Add all these shifted stretched versions to the unshifted stretched version X(ejwy /M ), and divide by M The stretched version X(ejwy /M ) can in general overlap with its shifted replicas.

Multirate Signal Processing – p. 12/1 www.jntuworld.com MSP-Lab1: M-fold Decimation Objectives: To study the effect of aliasing in sampling rate reduction. To study the effect of frequency response of different order Low Pass (LP) filters. Steps: Consider an audio signal of CD quality (i.e., sampled at 44.1 kHz). Resample using a suitable matlab function at 16 kHz. Take a 50-100 ms segment of the audio signal in one of the high energy regions. Compute its linear and log magnitude spectra. Plot the time domain signal and its spectra. Multirate Signal Processing – p. 13/1 www.jntuworld.com MSP-Lab1: M-fold Decimation (contd.) Design an FIR LPF by windowing method for a cutoff frequency Fc = 4kHz. Plot its impulse response and frequency response. Obtain LP filtered signal by convolution. Plot the time domain signal and its spectra of LPF output, Choose every 2nd sample to obtain decimated signal and plot its spectra. Choose every 2nd sample of original audio signal (sampled at 16 kHz) to obtain decimated signal with aliasing and plot its spectra. Repeat sampling rate reduction process with different orders for low pass filter. Comment on sampling rate reduction process by comparing results at various stages.

Dog friendly room with balcony on the water.
Worried about coyotes but we didn't encounter any.
Very nice rooms and friendly staff.
I reserved and paid for a king room with balcony and a view of the lake, 2nd floor with a view of the pool. I was a little upset.
Rooms were spacious and have been remodeled with Pergo wood floors, new kitchenette cabinets and countertops. We stayed for one night as booked, but would have been comfortable for several nights. Nice pool area. Easy check in. Nice staff. Comfortable bed. Would stay here again. Nice price .
Shower temperature was hard to adjust. Continually went from hot to cold. Tub was old. Rooms aren't real sound proof.
Time to build a new days in. Same location. New hotel
Awesome Inferno Suite by the bridge. House keeping is perfect.
There is a lot of noise comming from the bar untill midnight.
Nice room with balcony and view of London Bridge and Colorado River Channel, large Jacuzzi tub in bathroom.
Jacuzzi jets did not work.
The staff was friendly.The bathroom was extremely clean!
The hotel is in dire need of updates. The paint and drywall are chipping especially around windows and air unit. The floor in room is not comfortable to walk on. The smell of hotel is not good but the room was okay.
It was very old and outdated. The continental breakfast was below average.
Bedding, towels, large room, polite staff, laundry
The breakfast was unorganized.
Was great that they were able to move us up from a Queen bed to a King.
Though our room was nice we were located next to where the trash pick up was at about 6 a.m..
The bed was pretty comfortable. The room was quiet
There was no shampoo for the shower. I have stayed in less expensive and even they had shampoo. 20 cents a bottle come on now.
The new owners have not only completely renovated the place and dramatically improved the rooms and overall cleanliness of the entire building, but they are two of the nicest motel owners I have ever met. Best value for price ever.
Clean room and manicured property. Our stay was short, but room was nice.
We had a room with a separate sitting area and a small kitchenette. The room was a nice size. We were not tripping all over each other. It was adequate for our needs.
Our view was of someone's fence and front yard. The other side of the hotel had some views of the lake and mountain range.
The mattress was very good.
The room was dingy, dated and smelled like it used to be a smoking room. The furniture had burn marks on it. There was no kitchenware as advertised and the Continental breakfast was extremely limited.
Close to local bars
Check in from 10am to 4pm...staff was everything but accommodating, we seemed to be a hassle
Quiet location
Beds were pretty old and should be replaced.
Good location. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Tub tap did not work great. Sink drain was partially plugged. Lots of noise from up the way(dogs barking??)
After arriving 10.30 at night the owners gave a a very warm welcome.
As a quick stop off its a great place to stay. Breakfast was ok but could have been a little more choices. 8 out of 10.
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us
Please send us an
and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

SALADO, Texas (AP) — Emergency crews are responding to a reported bridge collapse along an interstate in Central Texas.
If you just have to have it now, as in one hour, you can, at least in the Dallas area, as Amazon.com Inc. announced Thursday it will offer Prime Now.
Downtown Fort Worth's dining scene is about to get spicier with the opening of a new restaurant featuring Latin-inspired coastal cuisine.
Texas unemployment fell to 4.3 percent during February for the sixth straight month of declines, the Texas Workforce Commission reported Friday.
The future of a redevelopment plan for the 50-year-old Westchester Plaza on Fort Worth's Near Southside is unclear.
MONTPELIER, Vt. (AP) — Six locations in California, Florida and Texas are going to be taking part in a pilot program designed to reduce the time people have to wait while entering the country by having the sponsoring organization help pay the costs of additional border officers.
The Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport; El Paso, Texas; the South Texas Assets Consortium; Houston Airport System; and Miami-Dade County, in Florida, would join a project already underway between Tijuana, Mexico, and Otay Mesa, Calif.
The areas will make payments that will be used to cover salaries of additional staff, overtime and services such as inspections.
More than a dozen locations around the country applied for the program.
One of the groups to be rejected was Vermont's Jay Peak ski resort, which gets 55 percent of its business from Canada. The border is just a few miles from the resort.
Border Protection said the proposals from each applicant were reviewed and ranked based on criteria including the impact on current border operations, health and safety issues, and community and economic benefits. The agency will complete the negotiations with the five applicants by the end of the year.
The agency is also finalizing the terms of the Tijuana Cross Border Terminal, which will allow ticketed travelers to cross between the Tijuana airport and Otay Mesa. Construction on that project could begin at any time.

Written on: 22/08/2012 by Hedgetrimless (1 review written)
My gladiator 550 ran for less than 3 hours before it failed due to a defective flywheel. This was replaced under warranty but the replacement flywheel developed the same fault in only a few hours more. I have contacted Mcculloch through their limited contact system and Mcculloch refuse to respond to me. Most reputable dealers and maintenance/repair people to whom I have spoken will not touch them with a barge pole. Be warned!!!!!!!
I believe that Mcculloch, Flymo and Electrolux are one in the same. Perhaps all their products are not fit for purpose and not of a merchantable quality.

I am trying to set a window at the bottom right of my screen. Its FormBorderStyle is set to None. I don't want the user to have the ability to move it around. Unfortunately, if the user presses Winkey+Up (maximize in Win7), it will relocate the form to (0,0) on my desktop.
I tried resetting the location in the LocationChanged event but when I changed the Left/Top or Location properties, they would not actually change.
Does anybody have any ideas on how I can resolve this?
