Scientists unravel galactic spaghetti monster
Scientists believe they have deduced what sustains the noodly appendages of a galactic "spaghetti monster" - actually Galaxy NGC 1275 in Perseus - which displays "a mammoth network of spaghetti-like gas filaments around a black hole", as New Scientist puts it. Galaxy NCG 1275 NS explains: "As the black hole sucks in gas from …
All hail his noodly appendages...
... and praise the bounty which he bestowed upon us mere mortals.
This is a clear sign of his power and anger, so we must all shed the chains of our mundane lives, and don our pirate outfits, and plunder the unbelievers!
Not the spaghetti monster...
...it's the eye of Sauron! Can the One Ring be destroyed by thrusting it into the ungainly maelstrom of a black hole? Let's find out!
Scientific vindication of the Pastafarian faith
Proof at last!! Now all will worship at the Galactic Temple of The Noodly One, may sauce be upon his name. I await with eagerness the discovery of cosmic background radiation from the creation of the first midget.
Many years ago
At the heart of the galaxy... a set of Cernairians decreed. There there be LHC... and boom the galaxy was form.
No gas, but plasma
There is no gas around a black hole, it is a plasma. As a plasma move, the differential movement of its positive and negative charged particles generate electric fields which in turn generates radial magnetic fields that produces filamentation.
Filamentation is defining characteristic of astrophysical plasmas that have been well-described by people like Nobel-prize winning physicist, Hannes Alfvén. Peer reviewed papers going back decades can be found at http://www.plasma-universe.com/index.php/Filamentation
A Response to the Eye
Finally, we Pastafarians have an answer to the other religions eye of god!
Any given our reason is Way more awesome than theirs (an exploded star versus enormous and scientifically astounding black hole) that clearly shows Pastafarians were right all along!
All hail his noodly goodness!

@ Ian Tresman
You mis-spelt pasta as plasma...
Skull and crossbones because The Noodly One (with extra sauce and meatballs) demands it.
Visions of the Flying Spaghetti Monster ...
Oh, great FSM, to see your image is divine (well, pretty close, after Jennifer Hawkins, anyway).
What more evidence of deity do people need - I say burn the unbeliever fundamentalist Kansas School Board at the stake.
useless models
> If so, this could help scientists resolve a cosmology poser: why there are "fewer high-mass galaxies than models predict". Astronomers reckon some massive galaxies are prevented from expanding further by black holes which are "devouring their surroundings and spewing out jets".
On the contrary I would suggest that (just like the Global Warming chaps) friend cosmologist's model does not include the effects of the galactic pirate population. Comso-pastafarians will of course know that galaxies are prevented from expanding further by pirates which are "stealing their booty and burying it in a far off nebula. Yarrrr."
@Elmer, @GameCoder
> Eye of Sauron maybe but it looks more like the eye at the other end of Sauron.
which explains where the gas came from. I wondered about that.
Ian's right, though. The "pasta" look is clear evidence of plasma. But as usual, plasma physicists will be listened to about as seriously as if they were talking about His Noodliness.
All hail his noodly appendage!
The good and mighty FSM is truely looking down on us from above, and gives His blessing to take the unbelievers to the plank.
Load the cannon and hoist the mainsail! :)
Space Craft
What's that in the upper left-hand corner? It looks like a space shuttle coming out of some sort of wormhole or rift? It actually looks sort of photoshopped in, but I'm not sure, I just want to know what it is.
Re: Space Craft
I'm one of the authors of the paper. The object at the top left is actually a star. The image was created by subtracting the diffuse light of the galaxy from the red image to show the filaments. Unfortunately this doesn't work completely for saturated objects like bright nearby stars, so you're left with residual features.
If you'd like to see some more pretty pictures (or the paper itself), go to http://www-xray.ast.cam.ac.uk/papers/ngc1275/
@ Ian Tresman - Hannes Alfvén
I wouldn't want to stem the flow of pasta and pirate jokes, but here's a paper by David Tsiklauri that suggests magnetism may hold galaxies together without the need for dark matter.
It's not impossible that the pirates of orthodoxy have been plundering the riches of research funding for some years, leading many on flights of fancy in the search for the mythical hidden treasure of dark matter and dark energy,
Why was Hannes Alfven thrown overboard? That's the the crucial question.
300,000 Lightyears
The tentacles are the same as 236,513,210 Trillion london double decker buses parked end to end.
From that we can work out the weight of each tentacle because the buses weigh about 14.5 tons, so 3,429,441,545 Trillion tons with no passengers.
It would take 328,490 Trillion days at an average of 30mph to travel from one end to the other. With a ten mile journey costing £1.50 the spaghetti monster earns an amazing £492,735 Trillion every 20 minutes.
It's not Him
"He is of course invisible and can pass through normal matter with ease".
Unless, of course, He is "invisible" to the naked eye, and He was just waiting for Sanders & chums to point the requisite kit in His direction.
Images of deities
This does rather put finding "the face of Jesus" on your toast to shame somewhat.
Beat that Abrahamic religions.
Her Pinkness forgives you
You fools. Bow before your brazen images, for the one true Pink one forgives you.
The Invisible Pink Unicorn is of course in the extreme top left corner of the picture. Obvious, of course, but none are so blind as those who cannot see.
you have to be joking
We all know the universe was sneezed out of the nose of a giant geen being ...

One phyicist making a serious comment , the rest of you have started friday lunchtime early!
@Alex Cooksey
Yep, a god you can point your telescope at definitely beats one you can't.
Love the irony
You've got to love the irony that, after making up a deity as a protest against intelligent design, science comes around and provides proof of said non-existing deity's existance.
However nobody can provide evidence of the Christian's diety's existence even though "he exists".
Mine's the one with the babelfish in the pocket as that seems a plausable explanation for why God doesn't exist.
@Re: Space Craft
Those pictures on your page look even more startlingly like Him than the one chosen for this article.
Who woulda thought.
The Starfish Spincter
Following on from Elmer's findings that this cosmic entity NGC 1275 looks more like Sauron's other eye, I propose a new name for this magnetic mystery.
Ironic that it should be belching out massive hot radio bubbles. Tuning into the faint hum that is channel bumhole...
- aspinctersayswhat?
Confirmed at last, we are not alone...
There are other carbonara-based life forms in the universe. I, for one, will welcome our new pasta-like overlords if they ever care to visit.
Mine's the one with the Al Dente designer label.
"The result of this influence is to prevent the gas, weighing in at a modest few hundred degrees Celsius, from "evaporating away into the 40 million °C sauna of surrounding cluster gas"."
That's it, this resident Finn is off to that place with a stash of beer and sausages, since it mentions sauna. Who's with me?
@ian tresman
Well ill be damned, one of the universes mysteries finally solved, but a reg readed knew it all along. What are the chances of that?
I wonder how many other keys to science the reg readership are sitting on? I expect the proof of the smooth four dimensional poincaré conjecture and the value of the next mersenne prime will be here by lunchtime.
@vincent himpe
The being was the Great Green Arklseizure, you blasphemer. All of you unbelievers bow down and wait for the coming of the Great White Handkerchief!
Response from a member of the Kansas School Board
"It is a serious offense to mock God."
Bobby Henderson was right all along
So the FSM does exist (may sauce be upon him)...
Now we need to breed more pirates to combat global warming and earthquakes...
I'll see you all by the beer volcano and stripper factory.
@Mrs. Kathy Martin, District 6
"It is a serious offense to mock God."
But we aren't - we are praising him.
All hail the Flying Spaghetti Monster!
I am born again having been touched by his noodly appendage!

Down with the angry god who requires that we slaughter/sacrifice his son/lamb in order to make him like us!
@ Not the spaghetti monster... By Niall
"...it's the eye of Sauron! Can the One Ring be destroyed by thrusting it into the ungainly maelstrom of a black hole? Let's find out!"
Fine... fine... So - who's ring is going to be thrust into the black hole then?
Is that even topologically possible?
Gahhh, it IS Friday.
And mine's the one with "Got to work all weekend" on the back and pockets full of Modifinal...
There is but one One True Friend(tm)
Dear Vulture fans,
Basil Baxter Loves You.
It saddens Basil Baxter to witness this display, akin to Roman Catholics insisting they see the alleged 'virgin' Mary[1] in a loaf of bread, a washbasin or even the sky, or Americans claiming to have met Elvis in a public washroom where he was chatting up Boy George. It saddens Basil Baxter because it is evidently a symptom of the growing, possibly pathological, need humans feel to have a One True Friend (TM). Blinded by their passion for a noodle-creature, invisible pink horsies, dessert-dwelling pederasts and Golgotha-hill streakers they overlook the One True Friend (TM) who is always ready to lend a hand in need [2]; Basil Baxter.
It saddens Basil Baxter even further because while pederasts and streakers might actually exist or have existed in the past, the noodle-creature is most definitely no more. He was quite tasty, Basil Baxter should add.
In any case, Basil Baxter Loves You.
And remember: Vultures make great playmates for toddlers, and Black Mamba's make great retirement gifts.
1] Basil Baxter fondly recalls the good times when she was still known as 'Hot Tamale' Mary. 2] Or two, or three. How many do you need?
Sheep in clouds?
"You've got to love the irony that, after making up a deity as a protest against intelligent design, science comes around and provides proof of said non-existing deity's existance."
I suppose you see sheep in clouds? This is a fascinating object to be sure, but hardly proof of the Flying Spaghetti Monster whose existence is still speculative.

Found January 17, 2013 on
Last night LeBron James added another accomplishment to his long list of records. In the Heat's win over the Warriors James became the youngest player in NBA history to score 20,000 points.
James did so at 28 years and 17 days. The previous record was held by Kobe Bryant who got to 20,000 at 29 years and 122 days. Of course James did this the fastest because he started his career right out of high school unlike Michael Jordan.
James in the 38th player in NBA history to reach this mark. In the same game James also recorded his 5,000 career assist. Only 13 players in NBA history can say they scored over 20,000 points and have 5,000 assists.
James was also the youngest to Rookie of the Year, record a triple double, score 1,000 and 10,000 and take MVP honors in an All Star Game.
"That's a big-time moment," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. "He's a special guy. He's a special player. He's a once-in-a-generational type of player."

Mining accident leaves Perry County man dead
Amelia Holliday
Staff Reporter
The first mining related accident in Kentucky in 2013 has resulted in the death of a Perry County man.
Jerry A. Watts, 52, of Slemp, was working at the Begley No. 1 mine, owned by T & T Energy, LLC., at Short Creek in Leslie County Saturday morning when a jack slipped allowing a liner to strike him in the head, the Kentucky Office of Mine Safety (OMSL) said.
Watts was pronounced dead by the Leslie County Coroner Greg Walker.
OMSL investigators interviewed other employees on Monday who were present when the accident occurred.

Message: Affordable Care Act (ACA) Health Insurance Information Teton County Library offers 45-minute, one-on-one sessions to community members wishing to sign up for insurance in the new federal Healthcare Marketplace. To reserve a session and find out what you will need to bring, stop by the Library Front Desk, call 733-2164 and press 1. For questions about local resources and help with the Healthcare Marketplace, contact Wyoming 2-1-1. Call 211 or 1-888-425-7138. Or contact the HealthCare.gov call center, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, at 1-800-318-2596. The Wyoming State Library and Wyoming Institute of Population Health created an archived version of the "Enroll Wyoming: Navigating the Health Insurance Marketplace" presentation, seen at libraries and other community venues across the state. You can view it here. last updated 2/21/2014 Tips for signing up for health insurance through Healthcare.gov ("the Marketplace"), from Enroll Wyoming: March 31, 2014 Deadline: This is the last day to sign up for a Qualifying Health Plan through the Marketplace and avoid paying a penalty on your 2014 taxes, if you do not qualify for an exemption. Twins: Having the same birthdate for multiple applicants may result in the Marketplace listing the same person multiple times on the same application. If this cannot be fixed prior to enrollment, the insurance companies can change the name if you give them a call after enrolling in one of their plans. Recent Change in Address or Legal Name: If you have changed your address or legal name within the last 6 months and are having difficulty completing your application, try using your former address or legal name to complete the application and then update this information directly with the insurance company that you choose. Phone Numbers: If you do not have a phone number, enter all zeros (0) or all ones (1) in the 10-digit phone number field and mark e-mail or mail as your preferred form of communication. All Caps: It is recommended that you use all capital letters and no symbols (for instance, dashes - or apostrophes ' ) when entering your name on your application. Please also make sure there are no extra spaces before or after parts of names. If your name was entered using a dash or apostrophe when creating your account and you have trouble after creating the account, try creating a new account and spell your name without the dash or apostrophe. Self-employed or Job Changes: If you are self-employed, have recently changed jobs, or expect to change jobs in 2014, mark "no" when asked whether 2014 income is expected to be the same as 2013 or 2012 income. What does the "D" in a health plan name mean?: This means the plan includes a pediatric dental care benefit. What does the "HSA" in a health plan name mean?: This means the plan qualifies the consumer to start a Health Savings Account to help pay for out-of-pocket health care expenses. Your banker or accountant can help explain how this works. There are two insurance companies offering policies through the Healthcare Marketplace in Wyoming. For general information about the policies they are offering, such as what their plans cover, what doctors are in their network, and drug coverage (formularies) you can explore their websites: Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wyoming WINhealth In March 2010, President Obama signed comprehensive health reform, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), into law. Explore what this means for you with these resources. It's important to be aware that ACA enrollment begins October 1, 2013, and closes on March 31, 2014, for coverage beginning as early as January 1, 2014. Federal Health Insurance Marketplace The United States government's interactive Website healthcare.gov provides information about insurance changes related to ACA. This Health Insurance Marketplace is designed to help you choose an option that best suits your needs. Wyoming Residents Some states have set up their own sites and put together special plans for their citizens. Wyoming, however, is using the regular Federal plans and information at healthcare.gov. Teton County residents should use that site to explore their options. For those currently uninsured, this information is essential as citizens are now legally required to sign up for health insurance. Those who do not enroll will be subject to an annual tax penalty. The Wyoming Department of Insurance has developed information sheets for individuals and for employers. Here's a link to aPowerpoint given by the Wyoming Department of Insurance and St. John's Hospital at the library on Oct. 9, 2013. Helpful Resources Before exploring the Health Insurance Marketplace, you may want to become familiar with medical insurance vocabulary. You can see a glossary here. What can you do to get ready? The Marketplace is open for enrollment. Here's information on what you can do to prepare for enrollment. Why should I have health coverage? Find information about the cost of treatment, basic insurance term definitions, and the benefits of coverage. Health coverage will be required starting in 2014 or pay a penalty on their taxes. What are the different types of health insurance? This outlines the different types of plans and their differences so you can compare them in the Marketplace and better understand any insurance you may currently have. What's the difference between Marketplace plans and other private plans? While both types of plans have a core set of common features, the cost of private plans are not regulated, the cost of Marketplace plans may be based on your income. Other commonly asked questions can be answered here. The National Academy of Sciences has published a consumer guide called The New Health Care Law and You. The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation wrote and produced an animated video with the YouToons that gives an overview of the changes to health insurance under the Affordable Care Act below: http://tclib.org/index.php/site/news/20706/

Each course on this list (except the three specific courses required of all American studies majors) has two sets of parentheses after it. In the first you'll find the letters L, A, R, and/or H, indicating which multidisciplinary diversity requirement(s) the course fulfills. L is for Literature; A is for Art, music, theater, or media; R is for Religion or philosophy; H is for History or social science. In the second set of parentheses you'll find the letters C, D, and/or P, indicating which of the three concentrations the course fits into. C is for Cultural products; D is for Diversity and difference; P is for Power, politics, and institutions. In each set of parentheses, there may be more than one letter, since many courses fulfill more than one goal. As you know, a single course can fulfill a multidisciplinary diversity requirement and count toward your concentration, but a single course cannot be used to fulfill two multidisciplinary diversity requirements. In the left column, you'll see a link to a page with Fall 2012 courses listed according to the American Studies requirements they fulfill. For instance, if you need one more course finish your "Diversity and difference" concentration, go to that page and click on that link at the top of the page, and you will see a list of all the courses offered in Fall 2012 that fit in that concentration. You'll still need to go to the main course descriptions page to see a full description of the course. If you see a course here that you think should fulfill a requirement but it does not have that designation, bring up the issue with the director of the program, who is always open to suggestions.
For more details about these designations go to the "Requirements" page
Cultural Products (C): This concentration focuses on American literature, arts, media, and thought, examining their history and place in American culture and society. Students primarily take courses in literature, film, media, music, the visual arts, the performing arts, popular culture, philosophy, and intellectual history. Diversity and Difference (D): This concentration takes up the problem of American social and cultural pluralism. Students will consider the place of such categories as race, ethnicity, class, gender, and religion in American history. Students primarily take courses in literature, philosophy, African-American studies, history, political science, Urban Studies, Women's Studies, religion, American Catholic Studies, and sociology. Power, Politics, and Institutions (P): This concentration focuses on American society and institutions such as politics and religion. Students primarily take courses in political science, history, sociology, American Catholic Studies, African-American Studies, and Urban Studies.

Aviva is to sell its entire remaining stake in Dutch insurer Delta Lloyd, as part of a strategy to narrow its focus on fewer business segments.
The sale of up to 34.3 million Delta Lloyd ordinary shares, which accounts for 19.4% of the firm's issued share capital and 18.2% of its voting rights, will occur through a private placement to qualified institutional investors.
Aviva said the transaction will increase its capital surplus ratio, strengthen its balance sheet and boost liquidity.
The group has entered into a placing agreement with Morgan Stanley as global coordinator, and joint book runner alongside Goldman Sachs and Barclays.
Mark Wilson, (pictured) chief executive officer of Aviva, said: 'This sale will be a good start to 2013 and supports our strategy to narrow focus and make Aviva a more nimble and athletic organisation.
'It will further increase Aviva's cash and capital position and is consistent with our focus on businesses where we can earn higher returns.'
In July last year, Aviva carried out a partial sale of its shareholding in the firm, disposing of around 21% of the issued share capital in Delta Lloyd.
In the previous year, Aviva had sold around 15% of its stake in the firm.
Before November 2009, when Aviva completed an initial public offering and partial sale of its shareholding in Delta Lloyd, the company's entire ordinary share capital was owned by CGU International Holdings, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aviva.

BEIRUT - As the Obama administration tries to prod Congress into backing armed action against Syria, the regime in Damascus is hiding military hardware and shifting troops out of bases into civilian areas.
Politically, President Bashar Assad has gone on the offensive, warning in a rare interview with Western media that any military action against Syria could spark a regional war.
If the U.S. opts for missile strikes, Assad's reaction could have a major effect on the trajectory of Syria's civil war. Neighboring countries could get dragged into a wider conflict, or it could be back to business as usual for a crisis that has claimed the lives of more than 100,000 people over 2 1/2 years.
The main Western-backed opposition group says that during the buildup last week to what seemed like an imminent U.S. attack, the army moved troops as well as rocket launchers, artillery and other heavy weapons into residential neighborhoods in cities nationwide. Three Damascus residents, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals, confirmed such movements.
One man said two members of the elite Republican Guards broke into an empty house he owns and showed him an official document stating they were authorized to do so because Syria is at war. A woman in another area said soldiers moved into a school next to her house.
That trend is likely to continue in the coming days after the regime won a reprieve following President Barack Obama's decision to seek congressional approval for military action.
"The Syrian regime knows there are 30-40 potential targets for U.S. airstrikes, and they have had ample time to prepare," said Hisham Jaber, a retired Lebanese army general and director of the Middle East Center for Studies and Political Research in Beirut. "Half of them, if not more, have been evacuated, moved or camouflaged. This is the natural thing to do."
Obama said last week that he believes the U.S. should strike Syria for what the administration says was a deadly chemical weapons attack by Assad's forces on rebel-held suburbs of Damascus. The administration has stressed, however, that any operation would be limited and not aimed at tipping the balance of power in Syria's civil war.
In an interview published Monday with the French newspaper Le Figaro, Assad refused to say how Syria would respond to Western strikes but warned that "the risk of a regional war exists."

Local Holds Committee Recommendation
(Presented to LINC Policy Council on May 24, 2006)
Local Holds 9-month Trial Period (Exemption to Holds Parameter Policy)
Current LINC Policy allows two settings for holds (requests). Those two settings, which use itypes to implement, are either:
LINC Policy Council received a request to review this policy and appointed a committee, the Local Holds Committee, to study this issue and bring back a recommendation to LINC Policy Council. That committee has been looking at various options for the last several months and has come to an agreement on a trial period for implementation.
LINC libraries may choose to implement local holds during the trial period. Local holds are defined as a rule that allows a library to limit holds that are placed on their own items.
Setting up local holds will require a local itype for each library. Items set to local hold will take holds from any borrower, regardless of where they come from, but the item must be picked up at the owning library. For local hold materials only, this will allow all borrowers to continue to place requests on those items, as long as the patron is able to travel to the owning library to pickup the item. Patrons will also receive information, at the time of requesting, whether this item is available or not.
This test will be implemented June 1, 2006. The Local Holds committee will review the trial process by December 1, 2006 and report findings to LINC Policy Council no later than March 2007. In April 2007, comments will be solicited from LINC library directors. LINC Policy Council will meet May 2007 to determine whether to continue with implementation of this policy or not.

As the
GOP-controlled U.S. House of Representatives prepared to vote on repeal of the
Affordable Care Act, the White House said a repeal bill would be
As with previous votes, action by the House -- scheduled for Thursday -- to repeal President Barack Obama's signature healthcare policy likely will go nowhere because the Democratic Senate won't consider it.
In a statement
Monday, the White House Office of Management and Budget said Obama would veto a
repeal bill "because it would cost millions of hard-working middle class
families the security of affordable health coverage and care they deserve. It
would increase the deficit and detract from the work the Congress needs to do to
focus on the economy and create jobs."
In a statement,
the OMB said repealing the Affordable Care Act would mean "marketplaces where
Americans could compare private insurance plans and get tax credits to purchase
them would not open."
"Tax credits for
small business owners who cover their employees would be eliminated," the
statement said. "States would lose substantial Federal assistance under Medicaid
to provide coverage for the neediest Americans."
Repeal would
mean insured Americans "would lose the benefits and protections they receive
under the healthcare law," the OMB said.
It would take a
GOP trifecta in the November elections -- winning the White House and control of
the Senate and retaining its majority in the House -- to overturn the Affordable
Care Act or at least defund portions of it, CBS News reported Monday.
Over the past 18
months, the House has taken 30 floor votes to try to repeal, defund or dismantle
the health care law. The first attempt came on Jan. 19, 2011 just two weeks
after the GOP took control of the House. NPR The U.S. Supreme
Court ruled last month the individual mandate, the heart of the healthcare law,
is constitutional because it is a tax. UPI The Supreme
Court's ruling does not mean Congress can't change the law in the future. CBS
News Dismantling
"Obamacare" would require Republicans to maintain control of the House, gain a
majority in the Senate and replace President Obama.
realclearpolitics.com Republicans said
they would address the new rules by replacing parts of the healthcare law with
their own legislation but have said little about which parts of the Affordable
Care Act they would reinstate in the future. CBS News

New Macworld Review of Borderlands 2

Jan 28, 2013, 02:52 PM | #2 |
Great, non-biased article. He basically showed that if you hold gaming as a priority, skip right to the point and max out your 27", except the RAM. RAM can always be bought for dimes on the dollar elsewhere (shameful, Apple).
And in closing, he states what we all know: If money means absoulutely anything to you, get a Windows box for gaming. Personally, I gave up gaming on computers altogether, and learned to love my XBox. As compared to PC/Mac gaming: console cost 90% less, games (pre-owned) cost 20-70% less, and most importantly, on PC/Mac, I spent about 80% of my time with a game fiddling with options to get it to run better. On the XBox, I spend 100% of my time with a game enjoying it.

I've wanted one of these the moment they were announced. I have all the games on the list, and they run great on my higher end 2010 iMac, but I definitely can't super max everything, especially The Witcher 2.
Also @ console man. Enjoying your medium range graphics and awesome low rez gaming? :P How about the complete lack of any good RTS games and some notable RPG's such as Diablo, Torchlight, Witcher. (thought witchier 2 made it xbox, PC/Mac is still the better version.) To each their own, but PC/Mac will always have the best experience in terms of graphics, options, mods and multiplayer so long as you have the requisite hardware. I never have to fiddle with stuff, and I do understand the "It just works" mode of consoles.

I'd like to see a Torchlight compatible with an old joystick, 6 button panel similar to the Dark Gauntlet games. MAME heaven.
With respect to Borderlands 2, while bordering on the thin line of trolling, I would say no one should care. Personally, found it considerably less entertaining than the first Borderlands. Chalk it up to "growing up" perhaps, but I played, replayed, and replayed again [the first Borderlands]. The second I quit after probably 2 hours.

These goody bags were colorful, and no pink ones, so good for boys. Most were fine, but one of the bags completely opened up on the bottom, and all the stuff fell out - so make sure to order enough in case there are some defective ones. Also, the bags don't have a flat bottom, so you can't stand them up very well, except in a box. The size is fine for an average amount of candy and trinkets, but if you put larger items in them (we had squirt guns), they aren't really tall enough to put twist ties around them, but they do have handles. In general, the bags were fine, but there are better options.

Day 1
Those on the group flights will be met on arrival into Vienna Airport. Those not on the group flights will also meet the group flight at the airport in order to join the group transfer to the start hotel in the mountain village of Terchova (approx 3 hours/245 km) in the north of Slovakia. This evening dinner will be grilled over an open fire for that taste of the great outdoors. You will have your welcome meeting to get to know your leader and the rest of your group.
Day 2
Today you take an adventure walk to the Janosikove Diery Canyons, you depart directly from the hotel. The canyons consist of various waterfalls and gorges which are accessible by wooden footbridges and iron ladders, sometimes there are chains that will help you manage the trickier sections. Along the way educational boards provide information about the area's fauna and flora. The walk is relatively easy and the views, plus mountain steams and waterfalls make it great fun too. You will walk through the canyons all the way to the mountain village of Stefanova with its impressive wooden houses and many farm gardens. A packed lunch will be taken enroute to give you a chance to rest and enjoy the views around you. After lunch we have a short drive to the extensive 13th century Orava Castle, perched on a limestone cliff some 370ft above the Orava River. The landscape and spectacular panoramic views from the top of the castle tower were featured in the first Dracula film, 'Nosferatu' in 1922.
Day 3
Transfer (20 mins) to Orava River for a traditional style rafting experience along the river (approx. 2 hours). The grade is easy (grade 1-2) so suitable for all the family to relax and watch the world float by. Then you stop at a traditional restaurant for lunch (not included).
After lunch you take a step back in time as you visit the mountain village of Vloklinec, the name roughly translates as 'Wolf's Place'. This small village is a living museum with excellent examples of the old rustic architecture. There are two rows of houses with long courtyards which remain undisturbed by new development. The houses do not have tap water and take their water from a well in the middle of the village which is housed in a wooden shed. Chickens and other farm animals roam free and there is a sense of peace and tranquillity here. Some houses here are used now as weekend houses, but some are still settled by indigenous people - in 1993 there were 30 people living in the village, including two children. One house is arranged as a village life museum and an information center. Sadly about a third of the houses are now in ruins or were burned down during the national uprising in the Second World War. The village is a UNESCO Heritage site.
After your visit a further drive (1 hour) takes you to your next hotel in the town of Tatranska Lomnica, your gateway to exploring the High Tatras.
Day 4
Today you will make a transfer (45 mins) to the impressive Dobsinska Ice Cave in Slovensky Raj Paradise National Park. The cave is a spectacular natural wonder discovered in 1870. The cave is lit and you will explore by walkways to see various chambers which are ice-filled year round - the air temperature in the 'Great Hall' is from -3.8 to +0.5 'C. The ice is constantly melting and refreezing so no two visits here are ever the same.
Onward to visit Spissky Hrad Castle which is one of the largest in Central Europe and rich in history dating back to 12th century. It is impressively sited atop a hill with great views of the surrounding area.
Continue to the medieval walled town of Levoca (20 min drive), the town became important due to its location on the main trade route between Poland and Hungary. Explore the medieval square which is one of the largest in the region with several interesting churches, a well preserved town hall and city gates. Later transfer back to your base.
Day 5
Take a train journey today to Stary Smokovc, then ride the funciular up to picturesque Hrebienok which sits at 1285m in the Tatra mountains. You will walk in the mountains, passing mountain huts and waterfalls for a total of 4 hours. The High Tatras are the highest mountains in Slovakia with 26 peaks higher than 2500m, this is fabulous scenic walking country with wall to wall mountain views. Back at your base your evening is free for activities of your choice.
Day 6
Today is a free day to enjoy optional activities. You can choose from options such as a day trip to the 'Cave of the Dead Bats', go walking or cycling in the area, visit the Aqua Park or the thermal pools. Your leader will assist you in choosing the best option for your family, alternatively you may wish to just relax a little.
Day 7
Take the morning train to Bratislava (4.5 hours). The rest of the day is free for exploring this city with your guide as you discover the rather muddled mixture of old and new. Start with a visit to the Castle and look down on the old town before exploring its narrow streets. Relax in the main square in one of the many cafes and then visit St Martins' Cathedral and Michael's Gate. You can visit the Clock Museum or the Technical Museum, which shows the history of Skoda cars. Make sure you return to the main square in the evening for the daily laser beam show. This evening you may like to take dinner on a boat along the Danube River.
Day 8
The group will be transferred to Vienna airport (45 mins), and those on the group flights will depart for their flight back to London.

Wall stickers
Ahoy there, land lubbers! These are stickers solely for the meanest buccaneers at sea with bedtimes before 9PM. Put them stickers here or thar as his heart do wish. Ne'er will the adhesive harm property, no matter the number of times used. But avast! your young "gentlemen o' fortune" will have you walking the plank should even a single plastic doubloon turn up missing, so be forewarned. Arrgh.
These stickers will work on just about any surface, but take care with wallpaper or some delicate surfaces. If in doubt, test in an inconspicuous place prior to applying all the stickers. Also, wait 10 to 15 days after painting before using stickers. Though the paint feels dry, it needs adequate time to "cure." As with any adhesive product, these will work much better on clean surfaces free of dust and the like. Specifically, they will work well on surfaces including but not limited to walls, mirrors, your fridge, laptop covers, tile, glass, lockers, furniture, and automotive surfaces.

Jeffco has finalized its 2014 budget, but the county commissioners warned the future fiscal outlook is grim and that cuts could be on the horizon in 2015 and beyond.
The commissioners voted 2-1 vote to approve a $350.5 million operating budget for 2014. The spending plan includes a 1.5-mill increase in the county's property-tax levy and a 3 percent merit increase for county employees.
Elk are an all-too-familiar sight for Evergreen residents. Wandering herds graze in yards, eat garden vegetables and create traffic backups as they cross busy roads. Recently an Evergreen elk cow made the news when she tried her luck on a resident's trampoline as her long-legged companions watched.
"How do we control the elk population in Evergreen?" Reid DeWalt of Colorado Parks and Wildlife asked during a recent community meeting on the issue. "It's kind of like herding cats. We pretty much let them do what they want to do."
King-Murphy Elementary School was closed Tuesday after a small fire in the boiler room on Monday forced students and teachers to be transported to Clear Creek High/Middle School.
A compressor caught fire, and a maintenance worker at the school put it out with an extinguisher before firefighters arrived about 1:30 p.m., according to Doug Saba, a spokesman for Evergreen Fire/Rescue.
Dial 333-JCSO
Evergreen businesses are hoping residents will think local this weekend by shopping here.
They hope holiday shoppers will stay away from the big-box stores on Black Friday and online shopping on Cyber Monday. Instead, they want residents to consider unique gifts that smaller shops offer as part of Small Business Saturday.
The Saturday shopping day was started in 2010 by American Express to give local businesses their own Black Friday sales day. The event asks shoppers across the country to spend money at locally owned and operated stores.
The Great Parking Lot Mystery has been solved.
In September's flooding, the most visible damage in downtown Evergreen resulted from the sidewalk, retaining wall and parking lot across from the CenturyLink building being washed into Bear Creek.
Since then, warning tape has cordoned off the area, but permanent repairs have not been done because it was unclear what entity owned the property — all due to a clerical error.
While reviewing a draft of the 2014 budget for the Indian Hills Fire Protection District, board member Scott Kellar said that resources for repairing the fire station need to be determined.
"The bond was not successful," he said during a discussion at the Nov. 20 fire board meeting. "We need to talk about short-term things that need to be resolved."
The Evergreen Fire Protection District will take a hit in property-tax revenue in 2014, but divisions have pruned expenses and made adjustments to savings plans to compensate.
Fire Chief Mike Weege reported that 2014 will see a 5 percent reduction in property-tax revenue from Jefferson County, and a 1 percent decline from Clear Creek — resulting in about $400,000 less to work with, he said.
Jeffco's Colorado Spirit flood support team wants residents of mountain communities affected by September's flooding to know a variety of assistance is still available.
And that includes emotional support.
The three-person support team, funded for a year by a grant from FEMA, has worked its way through the county door to door offering help to residents dealing with the aftermath of the flooding.
The Jeffco Sheriff's Office is warning drivers to be on the lookout after receiving several complaints about car windows being shattered while motorists are driving along C-470, U.S. 285 and I-70.
The first incident, on July 24, involved a vehicle traveling east on C-470 at Alameda Parkway.
The most recent incident, on Nov. 19, happened while a woman was driving west on C-470 at Alameda.

While some still consider it second fiddle to Nintendo's nearly ubiquitous DS Lite, the Sony PSP has sold more than 41 million units since it appeared on the scene in 2005. The company released a second-generation version in 2007 -- the PSP 2000 -- giving it a slimmer and lighter chassis, some speed tweaks and the ability to output straight to a TV screen.
For 2008, the PSP is getting another minor makeover: the PSP 3000 gets an improved screen (better colour reproduction and less glare), a built-in microphone (to increase the usability of its on-board Skype functionality) and better video output support (you can now play games on non-HD TV hookups). Otherwise, the £130 PSP 3000 is all but identical to its predecessor.
The PSP 3000 has the same slim dimensions (71mm high by 168mm wide by 16mm deep) and light weight (200g with the battery, game disc and Memory Stick on board) as its predecessor. The luscious 109mm (4.3-inch) LCD widescreen remains, and it's been tweaked: it now delivers better colour reproduction, and is less prone to glare.
When compared with the 2000, the PSP 3000 does, indeed, deliver better colour vibrancy (you can toggle between 'wide' and 'standard' colour in the options to see the difference). As for glare reduction, we didn't find there to be a huge difference. Don't expect to play in direct sunlight, for instance. But you might have better luck with fewer distractions from indoor light sources.
The silver version of the PSP 3000 has a matte finish, as compared with the shiny piano black finish of the black one. As a result, the silver body is immune to fingerprints and smudges that so easily show up on the black one. Unfortunately, the screen is identical on both -- smooth and shiny -- and it remains a magnet for fingerprints. As mentioned above, the lack of a clamshell design (as seen on the Nintendo DS) makes investing in a case as much a necessity for the PSP as it is for an iPod or iPhone.
Aside from a few very minor cosmetic differences, button layout on the PSP 3000 is basically identical to the previous PSP as well. The screen is bordered by controls on its left, right and bottom side, plus two shoulder buttons along the top edge. The button layout is based on the classic PlayStation controller layout -- the four-way directional pad on the left, square, triangle, cross and circle keys on the right -- so anyone who's used a Sony console over the last decade should be able to pick up and play.
The bottom-left of the front face also houses an analogue thumbstick for more precise movement. A second thumbstick on the right, mimicking the design of the PlayStation controller, would've been a welcome addition. More mundane media controls line the bottom of the screen: select, start, volume, brightness and a 'home' button.
New to the PSP 3000 is the built-in microphone, located just below the screen, which can be used for online communication within a game or for the PSP's built-in Skype application. The advantage of having the mic integrated into the body is that you can use it with any standard pair of headphones. By contrast, the PSP 2000 required a special headset for communicating online.
The PSP is designed to play games and movies off something called UMDs, or Universal Media Discs. We're not sure where Sony got the 'universal' part of the name, because the PSP is the only device that plays them. They're sort of a cross between a mini-CD and an old MiniDisc, and they only hold about 2.2GB of data. They load into a snap-open door on the PSP's backside. The Memory Stick Duo slot remains on the left edge.

The Atlanta Hawks will emerge from the All-Star break on Wednesday when they take on the Miami Heat at Philips Arena. The Hawks will have 31 games remaining in the regular season with 15 at home and 16 coming on the road. There is a similar split in teams that currently have winning records versus teams with losing marks. Atlanta will play 16 games against an opponent with at least a .500 record as of the All-Star break.
Atlanta is currently in sixth place in the Eastern Conference but is just two games back of third place Indiana. Conversely, the Hawks are three games in front of eighth place Milwaukee with whom they have yet to play this season.
Thursday's trade deadline could alter the outlook significantly if a team like Atlanta should deal a player of Josh Smith's caliber. No matter what happens on Thursday, the Hawks will need to pull everyone together as they prepare for a six-game road trip that will take them to the west coast for the final time this season.
The Hawks head to Milwaukee for the first time this season on February 23 and will play in Detroit on the 25th. From there they head to Utah, Phoenix, Los Angeles to take on the Lakers and finally in Denver before returning home on March 6. With the East standings so tightly bunched that trip could be critical for playoff positioning.
The remaining road schedule could be especially difficult for a Hawks team that is 12-13 on the road this season. In addition to the western swing the Hawks will also make two trips to Boston and have road games left against Miami, Brooklyn, Indiana, San Antonio and New York.
Here is a look at the current Eastern Conference standings:

Book Description:The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Posted November 21, 2012 on
AP on Fox
Michael Vick and LeSean McCoy aren't practicing because of concussions and their status for Philadelphia's game against Carolina on Monday night is uncertain.
Vick, the four-time Pro Bowl quarterback, was injured against Dallas on Nov. 11 and missed last week's loss to Washington. McCoy, an All-Pro running back last season, was injured in the final minutes of the 31-6 loss to the Redskins.
Coach Andy Reid said Wednesday that both players are still in phase one of the recovery process, but that Vick is closer to returning. Vick joined the team in a meeting and was on the sideline for a morning walkthrough. McCoy is still having headaches.
Nick Foles would start for Vick and rookie Bryce Brown would take McCoy's spot.

BUFFALO, N.Y. – It was no holiday for Buffalo firefighters as they spent part of the morning fighting a vacant house fire on the city's east side. It started around 5 a.m. on Hagen Street.
Firefighters say the flames damaged the outside of the house but didn't spread inside. Damage is estimated around $20,000.
No word yet on a cause.

MSI GT680 review
4.5 out of 5
Comfortable keyboard, large high-resolution screen, fast processor and plenty of performance
Bundled mouse a desktop mouse masquerading as a gaming mouse, single touch touchpad
If you want the power of a desktop in a laptop (or, obviously, if you want to do some serious gaming) you're going to need a gaming laptop. They give you all the power you want and then some, eschewing the current portability trend of slimming down. So... read the full review.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Most people in West Virginia will pay less in health insurance premiums through the state's health insurance exchange than they would have in the regular insurance market before the federal Affordable Care Act was passed by Congress, according to a state-commissioned actuarial study.
The rates are dependent on getting younger, healthy people to sign up for insurance, officials added.
"There's very few that are going to fall into this demographic of paying more, and most are going to qualify for subsidies," Brandon Merritt, a health policy analyst with the West Virginia Center on Budget and Policy, said Thursday at a meeting of the Health Care Implementation Coalition. "That's going to actually be a good deal in the long term."
Couples who are 40 years old and make between $20,628 and $31,020 a year will have 82.3 percent lower premiums than they would have otherwise, according to the study.
A couple aged 60 making the same amount will save 90.4 percent on their insurance premiums.
Most women will pay less in insurance premiums in the health exchange than they would have in the regular insurance market, according to the study.
For instance, a 40-year-old woman who makes between $34,470 and $45,960 will see her premiums drop by 9.6 percent in 2016.
A 60-year-old woman making the same amount will see her premiums fall by 43 percent.
"For women, even at age 40, there's a decrease, particularly low income [women]," said Renate Pore of West Virginians for Affordable Health Care. "... Even the higher income ones will see a decrease, and that means they can actually get real coverage ... no gender ratings, no pre-existing conditions, no drop-you-when-you-get-sick.

Reason: added product picture
Ok...you have my attention. So when does it go on sale? |
Here is a pi of the poll: http://i532.photobucke |
Order: Beyer T70 Beyer DT1350 Sennheiser HD650 Sennheiser HD598 AKG K550 DT990 Premium 600ohm What can I say. Top 2 are because there is something magical about the tesla drivers. I can't put my finger on it, but I just keep reaching for those headphones! Second reason is that I listen almost entirely at the office, and those two pairs have 17dB and 19dB of isolation respectively. This is HUGE. I thought the office is silent, but when you realize all the details of music you are missing due to the photocopier fan and other horrible ambient noises, you realize how invaluable those decibles of isolation are! DT1350 hurts badly, very painful, so the insane comfort of T70 blows them out of the water. I love T70 for all trance, but some poorly recorded metal is unsatisfying on it. If I had to have only one pair of headphones, I guess it would be HD650 or HD598 because they do better with metal. I rate T70 at the top with the assumption that one day I can get Ultrasone Edition 8 or something for use with the songs I can't play with T70. AKG K550 is sealed, and hence usable in the office, very cool - and feels open. It is a neat headphone but the bass performance hasn't the virtues of higher ranked phones. DT990... is good but I guess I've neglected it and don't know how to place it. I'm spoiled with the selection. HD598 comfort is astounding, .. comfort alone makes it reasonable for some people to pick it over HD650 if you ask me. Last edited by parasitius; 01-30-2013 at 08:18 AM.. |
