NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Gas prices are on the rise nationwide, but one filling station in Florida has earned the dubious distinction of having the highest prices in the country.
Suncoast Energys, located near the Orlando International Airport, was charging $5.69 a gallon for regular gasoline on Friday. That's the highest of any gas retailer in the nation, according to price tracker gasbuddy.com.
By contrast, the average price in the city of Orlando is $3.78 a gallon, a few pennies below the state and national averages.
Patrick DeHann, senior analyst at gasbuddy.com, said many tourists use the station before returning rental cars on the way to the airport, without realizing how expensive the gas is until it's too late.
The manager of Suncoast Energys, Bob Barnes, confirmed Friday that the station is also charging $5.74 a gallon for medium grade gas and $5.79 for premium.
When told that these were the highest prices in the nation, Barnes said, "I don't know about that; we don't check other prices."
But authorities in Orlando -- where tourism helps drive the local economy -- have taken notice of the high prices at Suncoast and another gas station near the airport.
The city does not have the authority to regulate gas prices, so Orlando recently passed an ordinance requiring gas stations to post prices on signs that are clearly visible from the street.
The stations now have until May 12 to comply with the rule, or face fines of $250 a day, according to Cassandra Lafser, a spokeswoman for Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer.
Lafser said the stations have not yet requested the permits required to put in the new signs. But they still have a few weeks to act before the fines kick in, she added.

San Diego has many different sub-markets that have industrial buildings and storage areas, but one area that has a competitive price is the North County. The San Diego company offering creative solutions for custom banners offering it in different sizes and shapes. After a brief pause for lunch at the grocery store, we took a quick walk to the southern boundary of the park where we wanted to be sure and take the San Diego Aerospace Museum. The number of hours involved in SEO, it can be an expensive undertaking, if you do it yourself, hire a consultant or hire specialists san diego search engine optimization to manage it for you. < br> The Poway submarket is more expensive than Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, but offers more space for a central company that will distribute its products throughout San Diego, providing a location that will reduce the cost of fuel. It instills a sense of being adapted product and it is in alignment with the client's personality. An industrial engineer integrates fields arts, business and engineering design for commercial products.
Major industrial submarkets in the north of the county are Oceanside, Carlsbad, Vista, San Marcos, Escondido, Rancho Bernardo, Poway. While we had many visits to the San Diego Zoo, the subject of our most recent visit was on the other side of the "park part which houses museums, gardens and many other attractions.
The museum features photos of some of the greatest photographers of the country, but we thought some of the most fascinating pictures were part of an exhibition of Jeff Bridges movie star. A little can go a long way. SEO is often much more valuable than the sum of its parts. The engineers play an important role in technological progress of a country.
Under the most profitable markets in the north of the county are Vista, San Marcos, Escondido and with prices starting from registration over 40 cents per square foot, plus utilities. It will also increase the cost involved and will probably products out of the reach of the large percentage of customers. Many conversations in the office this week have included the cost involved in providing high search engine optimization quality.
Of the largest distributors in San Diego, Markstein Beverage Co., had his home in San Marcos for a number of years. WHAT: The park is not only the San Diego Zoo, but 15 unique museums and several gardens and trails.

How to Mark National Punctuation Day
Posted: September 24, 2012 Filed under: Contests, Education | Tags: grammar, national punctuation day, punctuation, puzzles, Writing Comments OffAttention, grammarphiles: today is National Punctuation Day!
Commemorated every September 24th, National Punctuation Day is the only holiday in existence to celebrate the wonderful, squiggly world of punctuation marks. In a world where punctuation is rapidly in decline, thanks to texting and trendy writers (ahem, ee cummings and James Frey), this day serves to remind us that "a semicolon is not a surgical procedure," nor is an ellipsis the moment "when the moon moves in front of the sun."
Wondering how you can mark this happy day? Unfortunately, NPD isn't a public holiday (yet). However, there are a few of ways to show your appreciation for all things punctuation-y.
The organizers behind National Punctuation Day hold an annual competition. This year, in honor of the 2012 presidential election, they ask their constituents to elect one punctuation mark as president:
The rules: Write one paragraph with a maximum of three sentences using the following 13 punctuation marks to explain which should be "presidential," and why: apostrophe, brackets, colon, comma, dash, ellipsis, exclamation point, hyphen, parentheses, period, question mark, quotation mark, and semicolon. You may use a punctuation mark more than once, and there is no word limit. Multiple entries are permitted.
So much for my dark horse vote for the interpunct. Its uses are gravely underrated, if you ask me. Cast your ballot for one of the other hopefuls by visiting the National Punctuation Day website and submitting your thoughts.
The New Yorker's Questioningly column is also partnering with NPD for its latest competition. In its post "Punctuation Nation," Questioningly asks its readers to devise a brand new punctuation mark. The constraints are that it must be made from a combination of two already existing punctuation marks, like the interrobang, for instance (?! or sometimes ‽). The column suggests,
maybe there should be a ,? mark, which indicates slowness and confusion, or a /\, which indicates disingenuous differentiation between two otherwise similar elements. (What?!) Anyway, you get it.
To enter, tweet your suggestion, followed by the hashtag #tnyquestion. You can view all of the current submissions to the contest here.
And if both of those competitions fail you, what else is there to do but sulk at home and bake food in the shape of punctuation marks, right? Yup, National Punctuation Day has a recipe for that.
Bonus Fun:
Haven't had your fill yet? What a punc you are. This puzzle should set you straight…
Insert the proper punctuation in this sentence necessary to make it correct:
James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher

The Worst (Fictional) Jobs in Literature
Posted: September 6, 2012 Filed under: Books, Contests, Top 10 | Tags: jobs, literary jobs, literature, the new yorker, twitter 2 CommentsEvery week in a competition of wits The New Yorker asks a question of the Twitter-verse. Its most recent contest asked followers to reply to the question, "What's the worst job in literature?"
Although James Joyce's proofreader appeared several times in the list, most tweeters stuck to the fictional theme. In the end the job The NY found worse than Hamlet's motivational coach and Jay Gatsby's poolboy was the winning entry "Narcissus' girlfriend." There were, however, so many gems within the bunch that we had to round up a Top Ten for you.

Tableaux Vivants for the 21st Century
Posted: October 17, 2011 Filed under: Contests | Tags: art Comments Off"Portrait of Sylvia Von Harden" remake by Stephan Hoffman & SoYeon Kim
"Portrait of Sylvia Von Harden" by Wilhelm Heinrich Otto Dix
Lest we think we, as "modern" people came up with performance art, here is an idea that is older than our country: the art of Tableaux Vivants.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines "tableaux vivants" as a "representation of a person, character, scene, incident, etc., of a well-known painting or statue by one person or a group of persons in suitable costumes or attitudes, silent and motionless." Such playful, yet at times, serious, art has been around since at least the mid-18th century. The Italian actor Carlo Bertinazzi performed the "The Village Betrothal in Los Noces d'Arlequin" by Jean-Baptist Grueze for the court at the Palace of Versailles in 1760.
Tableaux vivant "actors" tried to mimic costume, lighting, and theme in order to delight, educate, and inform. These "living paintings" were very popular in the early 19th century when the re-creations were moved from lofty venues like palaces to more humble ones, such as the parlors of affluent Americans. Godey's Lady's Book, arguably the most popular and influential magazine of its time, described tableaux vivant as one of the most popular of party activities which also served to "engender a love and appreciation for art."
Today, actors and artists still seek to create in form what visual artists put to paper. In April, the Adobe corporation challenged students in the UK to create their own tableaux vivant and vie for a 10,000 pound prize. An American website called "Booooom" wanted to participate in the project and asked Adobe for permission to adopt the idea (though not the prize). Adobe agreed.
Here are just a few of the stunning photographic tableaux vivants. What is truly delightful is the way in which many of the artists do not create a literal homage to the original work, but nevertheless embody its spirit.
Check out ALL the entries here (more accepted until 10/21/11) and more creative events on Booooom's Facebook page.

First, Diff'rent Strokes star-turned-Surreal Life cast member Gary Coleman entertained politics by running for California governor during 2003's recall election (which saw fellow actor Arnold Schwarzenegger elected). Then, Real World alum Sean Duffy managed to win a seat in Wisconsin's 7th Congressional District. Then, Keeping Up With the Kardashians kultural beacon Kim Kardashian caused us to rekoil in horror after threatening to run for "Armenian Town," a.k.a., Glendale, Calif. And now, Bristol Palin is the latest reality star to hint at a political future.
Appearing on Sean Hannity to promote her new reality show, Life's a Tripp, which premieres Tuesday on Lifetime, Palin told the Fox host that while she's too young to run for office, she's not completely discounting the possibility she'll follow in Mom Sarah's pit bull footsteps. "I don't think I'd shut [the door] completely yet," Palin told Hannity.
Though Palin addressed other issues during the course of the interview — including her support for her mother, should she run for office, and why she chose to document her life as a young mother on television — the possibility of a political future involving another Palin is sure to bait the most headlines. (Hey, it worked for us. Though it is admittedly interesting that Palin did hint at her disappointment in starring on the show: "If I would have known it was my own name and so much in my life is gonna be shown on this show, I think I would reconsider and think about it more.") And if any personality knows how to attract a possible voting public via a reality television program — even though Sarah Palin's Alaska has been off the air since 2011, the former vice presidential candidate continues to tease voters with the possibility of a last-minute bid for the presidency — it's someone from the infamous Alaskan family.
Sure, we could roll our eyes, fear for our youth, and continue to appreciate Mike Judge's prescient Idiocracy the day a Dancing With the Stars cast member considers a spot in our government. But you might be surprised how prepared a reality star might be for political office run. After all, they already cope with life under a microscope, public humiliation, widespread detractors, and being forced to get intimate with undesirable people for the sake of the cameras. (Idea tangent: Zingbot moderates a debate! Who's with me?) So long as Palin's politics best her Rumba. Follow Kate on Twitter @HWKateWard[Image Credit: Fox News] More:

San Francisco - A US scientist has invented a new kind of light bulb that uses plastic polymers and nano materials to generate light that is more energy-efficient than current fluorescent lights and is easier on the eye.
Details of the new invention were published on the website of Wake Forest University in North Carolina, where the inventor, physics professor David Caroll, is based.
The new plastic lighting uses the same amount of electricity as LED bulbs and half as much as fluorescent bulbs. The device is made of three layers of white-emitting polymer blended with a small amount of nano-materials that glow when stimulated with electrical current to create bright, perfectly white light similar to the sunlight human eyes prefer. It can be made in any colour or shape - from flat sheets to replace office lighting to standard bulbs in household lamps.
"People often complain that fluorescent lights bother their eyes, and the hum from the fluorescent tubes irritates anyone sitting at a desk underneath them," said Carroll, director of the Centre for Nanotechnology and Molecular Materials. "The new lights we have created can cure both of those problems and more." - Sapa-dpa

[video] Quick Take: Jim Cramer on IBM's Earnings
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- International Business Machine (IBM) failed to wow investors when it reported earnings on Tuesday after the close. TheStreet's Jim Cramer, co-manager of the Action Alerts PLUS portfolio, gives his take on the report.
"Outstandingly bad" is how Cramer bluntly described the results. Cash flow was disappointing and revenue declined from a year earlier.
Cramer pointed out an article by TheStreet's Herb Greenberg, Wall Street Tires of IBM's Managed Earnings, which suggested that the company's earnings per share target of $20 by 2015 may not be achievable.
Cramer added that IBM's stock would be down much more if the company wasn't such an aggressive buyer of its shares and if famed investor Warren Buffett hadn't endorsed the company so strongly.
IBM "is not a stock people should own even though the analysts are sticking by it, because I like growth out of technology and IBM has no growth," Cramer said. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich. Follow @BretKenwellSelect the service that is right for you!

'90s Nostalgia in 2013 How the '90s Took Over 2013 by Laura Marie Meyers 12/04/13 216 Reactions 53 Shares Print 15 15 21 1 1 Nineties nostalgia has been slowly making its way back into pop culture over the past few years, but the bomb-dot-com craze hit a whole new level in 2013. Boy-band reunions, TV spinoffs, and must-read tellalls from '90s stars dominated the entertainment headlines. Actors from Boy Meets World, Full House, and Saved by the Bell channeled their classic characters for new spinoffs and late-night appearances, while groups like the Backstreet Boys and Hanson came out with brand-new music — and don't even get us started on that *NSYNC VMAs reunion. With JTT's small-screen return, TLC's latest performance, and more, take a look at how the '90s dominated 2013. Source: Getty and ABC Start A Boy Meets World Spinoff What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 A Boy Meets World spinoff was confirmed in early 2013, and fans got a first glimpse of the show with Girl Meets World set pictures from actress Rowan Blanchard, who plays Cory and Topanga's daughter on the new show. When we chatted with Ben Savage about the upcoming series, he dished on Girls Meets World, saying that he'll be playing his daughter's history teacher, stepping into Mr. Feeny's shoes. Ben also gushed about reuniting with his former castmates: "It's certainly been a really nice experience being back on set with everybody, especially Danielle. It's almost like you're kind of reopening a chapter of your childhood, getting to almost relive it as an adult." Source: Instagram user rowanblanchard 1 / 16 Backstreet's Back What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This year was a big one for the Backstreet Boys — not only did the group celebrate their 20th anniversary, but they also received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame; released a new album, In a World Like This; and took on a world tour. Meanwhile, Nick Carter also came out with a book about his life and career called Facing the Music and Living to Talk About It. Source: Getty / FREDERIC J. BROWN 2 / 16 JTT's Return What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 It's been years since the '90s heartthrob was in the spotlight, but Jonathan Taylor Thomas returned to the small screen in March with a guest appearance on Last Man Standing, joining his Home Improvement costar Tim Allen. He also showed his support for his former onscreen brother Zachery Ty Bryan when the pair linked up at the LA premiere of Dark Tourist in August.

In May, the "MMMBop" singers also came out with a their own beer, appropriately called Mmmhops.

In the middle of Justin's big performance, *NSYNC reunited on the VMAs stage for a short medley of "Girlfriend" and "Bye Bye Bye." Cue the squeals from '90s girls everywhere! 11 / 16 A Zack Morris Blast From the Past In September, Mark-Paul Gosselaar sat down for a silly interview about modern-day Zack Morris, joking about what his Saved by the Bell character would be like in 2013. Imagining Zack's current-day whereabouts, Mark-Paul brought up a possible CrossFit routine, gluten-free habits, and the fact that Screech may or may not have been a robot. 11 / 16 The '90s Tell-All What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Nineties star Melissa Joan Hart gave a nod to her early TV days with the title of her 2013 memoir, Melissa Explains It All.

One of the members, Jeff Timmons, also stripped down to tour with "Men of the Strip."

Rocking her Jessie Spano best, Elizabeth went all out for the dance, caffeine pills and all. 14 / 16 Danielle Fishel's Nuptials What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Danielle Fishel said "I do" to Tim Belusko in October, tying the knot among famous faces that included her Boy Meets World costar Ben Savage and fellow '90s star Jonathan Taylor Thomas. Danielle's wedding pictures featured a great group shot with both guys, but we also loved the amazing '90s pictures she shared with us back in June, including snapshots of her old castmates, JTT, Full House's Jodie Sweetin, and '90s heartthrob Andrew Keegan. 15 / 16 TLC's Reunion At November's AMAs, TLC's Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas hit the stage to perform "Waterfalls."

Champs Too Much For Eagles
Dayton, Tenn. - The #1 team in NAIA and defending National Champion Bethel College (TN) were too much as the Asbury men's soccer team fell 7-1 on Saturday night at the Bryan College Classic.
Bethel wasted very little time scoring in the 3rd minute but the Eagles fought back and tied it 1-1 when junior Jonathan Lewis scored the first goal of the season for Asbury. The defending champs would then flex their muscle scoring in the 17th, 19th, 27th, and 31st minutes to take a 5-1 halftime lead. They would add two more in the 70th and 72nd minutes.
Freshmen keeper Travis Jones was peppered all night long with shots from Bethel, stopping nine despite allowing seven goals. Overall Bethel took 31 total shots compared to only six for Asbury.
The Eagles finally come home on Tuesday September 8th to host Hanover College at 7:00pm. They will play in another classic this coming weekend September 11th and 12th against Berry College and Wilmington College at the Bob Allen Nissan Classic at Centre College.

Product Type: ELC Child Development

A Safe Deposit Box For Little Ladies
ELC Keepsake Drawers
Member Name: Hishyeness
ELC Keepsake Drawers
Date: 03/02/10
Advantages: Solid construction, no sharp edges, well designed.
Disadvantages: None to speak of.
One of the more useful and practical gifts my four year old daughter received this Christmas was a set of Early Learning Centre "Keepsake Drawers". She is now at an age where she has a burgeoning collection of dress-up jewellery (such as beads, necklaces and the like) and her long hair has fostered an ever-proliferating number of hair bands, elastics, clips and other accessories. Having one place to put them all has certainly helped keep things organised and tidy.
The product is essentially a white mini chest of five drawers, decorated in a girly pink butterfly and flower motif. There is one large drawer at the top and four smaller ones, each with a pretty flower-shaped handle, which appear to be glued, rather than screwed, on. The sides and back of the chest extend above the top surface, giving an additional shelf area for little items. The unit is approximately nine inches tall, six and a half inches wide and four and a half inches deep and is made of solid, forest-friendly wood which is finished with thick white paint.
Despite the fact that it is manufactured in China, the first thing that strikes you about the chest is its weight and obvious build quality - a by-product of using solid wood throughout the construction. Having generally lost faith with the durability and design of kids toys, I was pleasantly surprised to see a product from the Far East that was well built with decent materials - this unit could so easily have been made with laminate covered chipboard.
The joins - on the main unit and in the drawers themselves are practically seamless. Without testing it to destruction, it's hard to tell how they are put together, but I suspect they are glued together rather than "joined" in the carpentry sense of the term. There are no screws, bolts or other bits evident in the construction.
The overall finish is first class - there are no sharp edges - each of the drawer corners are rounded, as are the base and handles. Not only does this ensure the chest looks more "soft" and feminine, but it certainly helps from the safety perspective as well. The matte white paint is very hard-wearing and resistant to chipping and scratching and even the flower and butterfly decorations are cleanly and evenly applied with consistent colouring throughout.
The drawers themselves slot into the chest easily and smoothly, with enough give to ensure they can easily slide out, but not so much to make them too loose. However, they do not have any stoppers, so they come right out - as such, if the chest falls over, it will spill its contents. That said, given its weight and stability, it's not going to fall over unless encouraged to do so by mischief-minded little hands.
This product is exclusive to the Early Learning Centre and can only be bought in their high street shops or through their web-site at www.elc.co.uk. It is currently being sold for £12.00, which represents excellent value - however, their on-line store charges a flat £4.95 for delivery, so you may wish to combine this with other purchases to justify the extra cost.
When I first opened the box I was prepared to be disappointed, but despite my best efforts to find fault with the product, there is precious little wrong with it. If I were nitpicking, the only improvements I would make to the design would be to add discreet rubber feet to stop it slipping off of smooth surfaces, and perhaps a system to stop the drawers from coming out all the way - or at least without some effort.
That said, my daughter finds it helpful that the drawers come all the way out as she can take things in and out much more easily given the size of the drawers and unit, so what to me looks like a niggle is actually an upside for her.
This is a very well built and hard-wearing jewellery and accessories box. Also, in keeping with ELC's ethos, this unit - which is advertised as suitable from ages three to eight - also encourages imaginative play and organisational skills. Although we received ours as a gift, I would have had no hesitation buying this for my daughter at its excellent value for money price. Highly recommended for little ladies and princesses everywhere.

List Of Kim Kardashian Lookalikes
So Kanye West had a tape leak featuring him and a Kim Kardashian lookalike. Reggie Bush is getting a Kim Kardashian lookalike pregnant. Old Navy had a commercial with a Kim Kardashian lookalike.
See a trend going?
There are a ton of women making names for themselves being Kimmy Cakes' twins. And they've been chopped down by people that actually went ahead to chop down the real deal. That's some weird isht.

Final Fantasy XIV Online Reader Review
If you follow MMO's then this latest attempt by Square Enix to conquer the market could hardly have passed you by.
FF9 failed, its UI was unusable to a PC user, gold trading was rampant before SE finally caught on and started to crack down and the grind was legendary. But it held on, partly from fans of FF in general and partly because it was refreshingly different from everything else out there. And it had cat-girls.
So, how does the "sequel" hold up. Not good. Its UI is still a nightmare to a PC user, although it has improved. The grind is still legendary, although it has improved. The hit to your PC is however far far harder and the lag will drive you insane.
I have long believed that a MMO is closer to an application then a game. In a pure game like quake I don't have to do much but run around, shoot things and... that is it. In a MMO I got to manage my inventory, chat with people, read maps, plan raids, decide on content, hold auctions. It is closer to using Outlook/Gmail then Tetris. Therefor it continues to amaze me that most MMO's gives us only the most basic tools. No threaded email, no archive. Auction's that have learned nothing from e-bay. Social media that make the earliest unix version of wall seem advanced.
In FFXIV you can only have ONE "dialog set" open at the time. So you are either looking at your inventory OR your characters OR your journal. No multiple windows open. Possibly because this would be hard to do on a controller. But I am NOT using a controller. I am on a PC, I am a PC user used to dealing with multiple windows.
But you do use windows, so for a controller user, things are akward.
This UI isn't going to please anybody. Unwieldy for both. SE has improved on the previous version, it is now barely usable, but someone REALLY needs to give SE access to a PC and ANY MMO so they can see how stuff works.
Ah, we have moved on since the earliest days haven't we... or have we? FFXIV starts off (no idea how it is later in the game) differently. You obtain quests from a quest giver who is not marked in any special way. Then you have to find a glowing rock, start a SINGLE quest from it, then follow the arrow to a mob, that might or might not spawn anytime soon (the game is lagged to hell and back), kill it with your SINGLE combat skill, get a completly random outcome (killed same enemies with just 50 hitpoints removed and gotten killed minutes after the fight by lagged damage) until you done what you are supposed to do with in half an hour, use a glowing thing to port back rince and repeat.
It seems as if SE hates their own servers. The constant tracking back and forth for each single quests means that this "central hub" becomes over crowded. At busy times it takes minutes for everything to load and the glowing crystal is NOT part of the scenery, so it won't show up. It gets better at odd times but come on. DESIGN 101, do NOT make everyone in your game HAVE to be in the same spot. Almost every other MMO has people spread out from the quest hub so they are gone for an hour or two. Not jump back every 5 minutes.
The quest themselves are the typical kill X of Y. This ain't the Shire.
If you want to know if FFXIV should be counted among the western MMO's or the Korean, then you only need to look at your skills. 1. ONE. That is it. ONE combat skill. Sure, you get more later on, but it kinda removed any notion of tactics or skill for the first hours of gameplay.
In Lotro and WoW, you get a feel for the most basic elements of your chosen class pretty early on. Use a pet, rely on damage mitigation, ranged vs melee, self healing. You KNOW from the start wether you are a tank or a healer or a debuffer.
Not so in FFXIV. You hit things... OVER and OVER again.
And this would be alright, if it wasn't for the lag. EVERYTHING is lagged. Easily a second or more even at quiet times. At busy times, think minutes. Just try sitting down. If in a remote area and in the late late hours, it takes about a second to react. At busy times, you can get a cup of coffee. I did and then as I sat down, so did my character finally.
In combat, this is a killer. Not of your character but of any sense of fun. Combat is already boring as hell with one skill, but when that skill feels uncontrollable, when you push 1 and NOTHING happens... just what the hell is going on? This ain't complex stuff. Are their servers totally overloaded? This would be understandable from a company that is either new to MMO's (SE isn't) or low on cash (SE just launched a succesfull single player game)
It suggest to me that the code itself is not ready. The delays even at off times are just so long that something must be going on and NO it ain't on my side because other MMO's work fine.
Splendid... up to a point. The NEAR area looks great. The characters, stunning. The general architecture... oh dear. This is a korean game after all. How does it show? Cities that are FAR to large! It is a general MMO failing (large cities with lots of people just increase load, so why do them) but FF adds another layer. The cities contain just far to much open space. And generally don't feel like a city but as some designers idea of what a city that nobody actually has to live in should feel like.
But the characters and their clothes are probably the best I have seen in a MMO so far.
Pity it all seems to bring even high end PC's to their knees. Future proof or sloppy coding? I got an SSD and plenty of memory, so why do level loads take so long? It is not like the SSD is even being stressed. Get the feeling some PS3 designer forgot to take account of machines with more then 512mb and faster HD's.
Oh dear, what is SE thinking. 9.99 for the base game. WITH ZERO CHARACTERS. That's right. The BASE pay isn't actually enough to PLAY the game. You HAVE to pay a MONTHLY fee for each character you want to play...
So, while the BASE fee might seem cheaper then others, if you have multiple chars, say 3, you end up paying 18,99. MORE then any other MMO.
The auction house is a simple tool, it allows you to sell your items without undue load on the server, without being logged in and anyone can find everything on offer without searching for it...
So what does SE do? Copy the lazy Korean method of having personal sellers that have to be parked in the real world often in high traffic locations...
I am really going to have to be racist on this, but just what is it in the asian mind that makes this seem like a good idea? You put a burden on the buyer who has to find the seller, compare by hand every sellers overing. You put a burden on the seller who has to find a peak location AND you put a burden on your server by putting all the sellers and their detailed characters in high traffic areas and not being able to off load the auction database to a seperate instance with its own hardware.
This game is a MMO but tries to do a lot of things differently. It is the only MMO for the consoles with the consoles being the lead in design but launching first on the PC. It is asian made for a western audience. So you kill with quests but the quests have a "oh well, we had to add some but didn't want to" feel to it.
Frankly, I think with close to two decades of MMO's now, companies should have learned what does and what doesn't work. I am no longer willing to make excuses because MMO's are new or very hard to do or because people are still trying to find out just what works and what doesn't.
I want my MMO to be like the latest shooter from ID, perfected.
And FFXIV is NOT perfected. It is NOT the results of twenty years of experience. It is NOT the MMO that FF9 should have been.
If you absolutely need catgirls in your MMO or are a die-hard FF fan, then maybe you can accept all FFXIV's short comings. But if you have become used to WoW/Lotro/Eve/EQ then stay well clear. This is like asking someone used to Outlook to use mail (the mail command on unix) fpr their office work. Mail IS usuable, but why would you when there are far better alternatives?
I recommend avoiding FFXIV if you can't afford to just buy the box for a laugh because:
A: The lag makes it unplayable B: The interface will drive a PC user to tears C: Your PC can't handle it D: It is the most expensive mainstream MMO out. E: It just ain't ready at the moment.

- Crowne Plaza Tel Aviv City CenterAvigail Hurvitz-PrinzJul 05, 2012
A luxury hotel in a bit of a bizarre location on top of some of Tel Aviv's most trafficked streets...One of the staff said it was like staying in Manhattan, and I suppose that the busyness of the place had that feeling, but nothing is very walkable or very pleasant in the neighborhood. Once I got over that, though, I found the hotel itself beautiful. Very modern and classy, with staff that went out of their way to help me, I would recommend it for people who are either traveling by train around the country or who don't mind taking cabs just about everyplace. The studio room is incredible, with gorgeous views and more space than most hotel rooms featuring bold, bright, cheery colors – and the bathroom was super-spacious as well. You are not close to the Sea here, but you will have access to the whole city by car, so it could be a fun choice.

Located in Azrieli Shopping Center, Israel's biggest mall, The Crowne Plaza City Center is the epitomy of luxury. The foyer is stylish and modern, full of bright, little touches. The lobby is filled with beautiful, comfortable furniture. The front desk clerks make it a point to give each guest their complete and undivided attention. And if there is something that they don't know, you are sent to the concierge, who is sure to have the answer. The hotel is very hi-tec, with special elevators that play Charlie Chaplin movies in the evenings to rooms sporting their desktop computers. The rooms are all modernly decorated with bright colors splashing out behind the white and gray. The bathrooms were beautiful with huge bathubs. I found the entire place very pleasing to the eye. As one of several added bonuses, guests also have access to the Holmes Place gym and spa located in the hotel.

How is it possible that even when Gerard Butler is looking scruffy he still looks so sexy?! The Scottish stallion was photographed as he departed from New York to Los Angeles International Airport today.
I'm super jealous of two of my Twitter followers who managed to speak to Gerry while he was on "Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief" telethon this evening. I tried to get through to talk to him twice but I ended up talking to two random really nice women who were working the phones. Of course I donated both times but it would have been made my lifetime to talk to Gerard.
I hope all of you did what you could during the broadcast but if you weren't able to you still have other opportunities. You can still call 1-877-99-HAITI or visit their website here.

They get federal cell phones that are used as there home phone and teleworking they just loggin and go shopping, sleeping and other stuff. I think what should be done is what the do law firms. Make every hour accountable the software is available. The put job code and how many hours they spent and what they did research, type memos, made calls. When you working on the job code let say in word you login with job code, you can implement this on the phone you put job code in than the phone rings to person your calling.

I'm very pleased with the rug. Pet fur doesn't show up so obviously on this rug as it does on dark rugs. The color is slightly different than my monitor shows. It's actually a neutral beige with some variation, but it doesn't have a yellow or peachy undertone like I thought it might. The rug is about 1/4" thick. I also like it because it provides sort of an optical illusion - it makes my room seem bigger. The rectangular braiding pattern seems like it's expanding outward at you.
This is a nice rug, but the "jute" used isn't like what you see in the more expensive versions of this style... it's more like braided hairs and doesn't hold up to wear and tear very well. Next time I'll spend the extra $ and get something that is more heavy duty.
Great value for the money and it looks great. A little lighter in color in person that shown in the picture. Definitely need a rug gripper underneath to stop from sliding or slipping when you step on it. The rug is very soft and comfortable to walk on.I have had the rug a few months and it still looks great. I vacuum it with the floor attachment of my vacuum so as not to break the weave. I can see traffic patterns starting in certain areas, I've read that rotating the rug will help with this. No buyers remorse with this rug !
I was looking for a stylish 5x8 area rug to protect the new bamboo floors in our kitchen. After much research, I saw a rug that caught my eye on h****.com and set out to locate it for purchase. I was thrilled to find it for a great price on overstock.com. The order/delivery process was smooth, as always. The only observation is that the rug smelled musty when we took it out of the plastic wrapping. However, after a few days on our floor the smell dissipated. In spite of the rich and nubby texture that I love, the rug is soft underfoot and we get tons of compliments for people who visit the house. Thank you overstock!
These jute rugs are not cheap but they look great, and this one was a great value for the money.
Beautiful area rug....very warm color. Great quality !!!
This rug is beautifully handcrafted and looks great in our living rooms under the coffee tables. I purchased 6 of them as we have 6 homes here at Fisherman's Cove. Our owners love them, they really make the home look so good.I felt they were purchased at a great price. Overstock .com is great! They always have great quality items at a fraction of the original cost. I would definetly recommend to a friend.
I had no idea what this weave rug would look like. When it arrived, I was very happy. It is a great rug.

I recommend everybody avoids this company like the plague! I want to place an order on thehut.com but have a query that isn't answered in their FAQ section. I sent an email through my account I created....i got no response in 2 days. I then tried calling the customer service number....no one answered after 20 minutes, so I called their main group general enquiries number....no one answered in 20 minutes. I then tried back an hour later, called their customer service number....no one answered in 20 minutes! God only knows how frustrating it would be if I had paid for some goods as its impossible to get in touch with them! I shall be sharing my displeasure across the Internet and with my friends!
Worst customer service I have ever witnessed!

Celebrities — they're just like us! They run errands. They hang out with friends. And sometimes they have a little trouble meeting "the one." Enter The Choice (premiering Thursday at 9/8c), Fox's new celebrity dating show that bears a striking resemblance to that NBC singing competition of, almost, the same name. However, instead of asking four celebrities to sit in chairs and press a button when they hear the voice of the next singing superstar, this time the four celebrities are asked to pull the "love handle" every time they hear the voice of their possible next paramour.

The Paris Opera Ballet is one of the world's great ballet companies. LA DANSE shows how a ballet company functions from administration, technical support, and classes, to the rehearsal and/or performance of seven balletsa Paquita by Pierre Lacotte, The Nutcracker by Rudolf Nureyev, Genus by Wayne McGregor, Medea by Angelin Preljocaj, The House of Bernarda Alba by Mats Ek, Romeo and Juliet by Sasha Waltz and Orpheus and Eurydyce by Pina Bausch. The film is a profile of all aspects of the ballet company, one of Franceas principal cultural institutions. The film immediately draws us into the rehearsals and shows preparations for performances of seven ballets, including The Nutcracker by Rudold Nureyev and Medea by Angelin Preljocaj, widely considered to be the most important contemporary choreographer working in ballet today. It is a testament to both Wisemanas love of dance and the respect of the Opera that he was allowed full access to film all facets of this revered institution from the administration offices to the costumersa department, illustrating the sometime tensions between a commercial sensibility and creative integrity.

It's another case of "do I want you or do I want to be you?"
I wish I could show something off that's just as poetic in English.
"Ah, Today's Korean expression, Janine!
Do you know 꽃샘추위(Kkotsamchuwi)? It means the cold weather in March or sometimes May.

I think that one thing I don't understand about romantic relationships is the tendency of some people to expect immediate reciprocation. There were definitely missed opportunities because I didn't feel immediate romantic feelings for a person, but I had them develop over time. By then, however, the other person was already on to another romantic interest.

I have heard comments like those referred to in this article SO MUCH in the last few months since I cut my hair, mostly on YouTube, the home of 12-18 year olds.
The ones that confuse and hurt me the most are like this one I got last week:
"Love your videos, will be back when you grow your hair out."Uh, ok? My hair doesn't affect what words come out of my mouth, dude? But he can't see me as anything else, I guess. Guys like him tune in because I'm attractive to them. Without long hair, I'm not attractive to them. Ergo…goodbye. The substance of my work doesn't matter because my looks are the only context they have for me in their lives. And that makes me sad, because I've always tried to be more than that, without screaming it in people's faces.
And it makes me sad for THEM actually. Because with that attitude towards women, they might be missing out on meeting an awesome girl/woman for themselves in their real lives. But we exist in a culture that only treats women as paper doll cutouts we can get aroused/attracted to. Our media does that to us, men do it to women, women do it to other women. I mean, how many animated GIFS of women are reblogged on Tumblr for their WORK rather than a dress they wear or a pretty pose? It's an interesting question, one that even I might have a bad record with.
So part of me doesn't even blame those YouTube guys. But it does make me want to show them that there are other ways to be, even if they cut me out of their online video lives, I still exist as who I am, out of their very rigidly defined parameters of "female-dom". And maybe that's enough. Just to BE.
Think I'll be keeping my hair short for a long time.

From my recent reading 170-175 is the magic number for whirlpool additions. Ive been reading your posts in the Lambic forum, because another priority once I get my pipeline caught up is to start a sour pipeline.
Kegged and serving -Rye IPA, Kohatu Pale Ale, Brown Forge, Marilla Wheat Bottled: Too many to list Fermenting: Flanders Red, Solera Lambic, Sour Rye Solera, Consecration, Apfelwein, Apple Cider, Nelson Saison, Sage Saison, Farmhouse Brett Saison, Little Bo Pils, It's a Celebration Bitches
I did the FWH and whirlpool only IPA but I tossed the whirlpool hops as soon as I cut the heat so it sat above 200 for a while. It went from 212 to 180 in about 45 mins, then I started my IC.
For anyone interested, I brewed up a 15 gallon batch of IIPA using nothing but whirlpool hops, FWHs and (soon) dry hops. I'll be posting results there in a few weeks.http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/iipa-zero-hops-boiled-kettle-hopping-technique-experiment-380011/
