War is a drug on which human society appears to be hopelessly addicted.
That, at least, is the sad essence of An Iliad, Lisa Peterson and Denis O'Hare's intriguing contemporary adaptation of Homer's three-millennia-old epic poem. Though mostly focused on the key players, causes and events of the great, decade-long Trojan War, An Iliad veers from the outlines of Homer's script long enough to link that bloody past to our war-torn world's present. At one point Scott Parkinson, serving as the show's storytelling Poet, even spends a few minutes calling out the names of every major war that has afflicted Earth since the days of ancient Greece – all the way up to today's multiple conflicts in the Middle East.
An Iliad: Scott Parkinson and Rebecca Landell

That might sound uninvitingly didactic and heavy-handed on paper, but as performed at Studio the play is surprisingly compelling, even occasionally stirring. Naturally, as a one-man play – with incidental musical accompaniment by Rebecca Landell – such a feat is largely a credit to Parkinson. The Shakespeare Theatre Company veteran invests so much of himself in the role, you'd be forgiven for thinking he originated the part, or perhaps devised it as a star vehicle to effectively show off his full arsenal of actorly chops. Parkinson portrays 11 different classic characters throughout the 90-minute play, from a flamboyant Hermes to an honorable Hector to a seductive Helena.
But certainly co-adaptor Denis O'Hare also deserves a fair share of credit. A regular on HBO's True Blood who years ago won a Tony Award for playing the lead in Take Me Out, O'Hare was An Iliad's original actor when the show was first staged in New York last year. In adapting Homer's Iliad with Peterson, O'Hare helped incorporate enough action so that it didn't become simply a dry recitation of an unwieldy story. For example, the play's actor is instructed to get as carried away with rage as Achilles was while relating a couple of the Greek warrior's key battles. In those moments, you're not just asked to imagine some distant, remote, mythological scene – you are there. You sense just how heady war can be, and just how ugly war can make a man.

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable James ZiglarFebruary 12, 2002 Mr. Chairman and Members of the Subcommittee: I am pleased to be here today to testify about U.S. refugee policy. I first want to acknowledge the leadership and long history of support for refugees exhibited by both you, Mr. Chairman, and Senator Brownback. It is a record of dedication to an important cause. Mr. Chairman, it was Ronald Reagan who said, "It's the great life force of each generation of new Americans that guarantees America's triumph shall continue unsurpassed into the next century and beyond." And part of that triumph has been America's enduring commitment to protect those who face religious or political persecution. Whether it is Albert Einstein and fellow scientists fleeing the Nazis, or Intel chairman Andy Grove escaping communism, or the "Lost Boys" of Sudan running from oppression in Africa, America has remained committed to freedom and offering that freedom to others. I share that commitment and pledge to do everything within my power as INS Commissioner to keep America's door open to those who must escape political or religious persecution. I know there are concerns that the ceiling of 70,000 refugees set by the President for this fiscal year simply cannot be met because of the late start in processing and the new security enhancements put into place as a result of the terrorist attacks of September 11. That is why I announced on February 1st that we have designed a realistic business plan to address this issue. I realize that meeting the 70,000 ceiling will be a difficult task, that we must overcome logistical barriers, and that we need, to a great extent, to rely on excellent interagency cooperation, but I believe this is so important that we must try. And that is why INS and the State Department, with the help of the Domestic Policy Council and National Security Council, have been working closely together on this issue. I intend to continue working closely on refugee matters with Assistant Secretary Gene Dewey and other key individuals in the Administration, as well as with Members of Congress and with religious and relief organizations. The events of September 11 had a significant and immediate effect on our refugee program. The need to address a range of security concerns resulted in significant processing delays. Out of concern for the safety of our officers, we were forced to curtail the circuit rides by INS officials interviewing refugees. In addition, refugee travel to the United States was suspended while security enhancements for the refugee program were reviewed and developed. Those heightened security measures were adopted, following approval by the Homeland Security Council, in November. Immediately thereafter, the President authorized the admission of up to 70,000 refugees during FY 2002, and refugee travel to the United States resumed, albeit on a limited basis. Throughout this difficult period, INS worked steadily to ensure that refugee processing resumed as quickly and as smoothly as possible. We are back at work and remain committed to our humanitarian mandate of providing protection and resettlement opportunities for refugees. I am pleased to report that 12 INS officers are on the ground in Africa and interviews will begin this week in Nairobi and Accra. Other INS officers are already interviewing refugee applicants in Zagreb, Moscow, and Vienna. Additional officers will be deployed to Islamabad, Cairo, and Belgrade in coming weeks. While this is good news, more needs to be done. " First, INS will increase financial resources devoted to refugee processing. INS will select and train a significant number of additional officers who will be available for refugee details by March. INS will also fund overtime to lengthen the workday or workweek, allowing INS to increase its interview capacity at overseas processing locations. " Second, in close cooperation with the Department of State, INS will seek out safe and secure interview settings at all refugee processing posts overseas -- a challenge in the post-September 11 world. For instance, because of security concerns, less space has been made available in Moscow for INS interviews. We are working to try and fix that. " Third, there are many bona fide refugees who never get in to see an INS officer. I believe that current U.S. government processes and criteria used to identify the pool of applicants eligible for INS refugee interviews needs to be revisited. Therefore, I am directing me staff to work with the Department of State, the NGO community and other refugee advocates to identify additional mechanisms for identifying individuals who are of humanitarian interest to the United States. That is why I am proposing an organized effort to allow U.S. nongovernmental organizations to refer individuals for interviews with INS officers in the field. Those individuals still must pass the legal standard for a refugee, but these referrals would significantly and fairly bring to our attention a larger pool of individuals who are of potential humanitarian or foreign policy interest to the United States. " Fourth, while the designation of Priority Two categories (specific groups of humanitarian concern within certain nationalities) is primarily the responsibility of the Department of State, INS pledges to work with our processing partners to identify new vulnerable populations appropriate for resettlement consideration. " Finally, the action plan identifies ways that the INS can accommodate greater numbers of refugee arrivals to the United States. New fingerprinting requirements at Ports-of-Entry have resulted in our request to the International Organization for Migration to schedule no more than 35 refugees per flight. While space constraints at Ports-of-Entry now designated to receive refugees preclude increasing this number, I have directed my staff to explore the possibility of designating additional ports for refugee arrivals. These measures -- increasing the number of officers available to conduct refugee interviews, ensuring work space for officers, expanding the workday or workweek, increasing the pool of applicants eligible for INS interviews, and accommodating more refugee arrivals at Ports of Entry -- will give us the tools to increase the number of refugee applications processed. All of these initiatives to maximize refugee admissions numbers during FY 2002 involve a number of players that are working to attain these goals -- the Department of State, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the International Organization for Migration, and the various agencies that assist in refugee processing overseas and receiving refugees in the United States. Mr. Chairman, as I have said before: The terrorist attacks of September 11 were caused by evil, not by immigration. These tragic events have forced us to re-evaluate the way we live and think, and the way we function as a government. We can and will protect ourselves against people who seek to harm the United States, but we cannot judge immigrants - or refugees -- by the actions of terrorists. Our Nation must continue its great tradition of offering a safe haven to the oppressed and persecuted. Thank you. I would be pleased to answer any questions you may have. |

On Vacation, Be Back in 10 Days
In a few hours, I'll be stepping into my first cruise to the Caribbean. I haven't packed yet, but I'm really excited. Don't expect any posts in the next week. I'll be bringing my Nokia N95 and the Nokia N93i (thank you WOMWorld and Nokia). I'll upload pictures from my Nokia N95 to Flickr if the WiFi on the ship works as advertised. I'll have videos edited and uploaded when I get back from the trip.
Vlog: Riding with the Nokia N95
For the third episode of MarkTV, I attached my Nokia N95 to the sunroof and recorded my drive on Grand Central Parkway. It's been a while since the last episodes, so to reintroduce you to the show, MarkTV shows you what I can do with my Nokia phones. Try doing this with your iPhone… oops, the iPhone can't even do videos! Check out the blooper at the end.
Review: Nokia Media Transfer Beta for Mac
I'll be reviewing Nokia Media Transfer for Mac. It lets you transfer pictures, videos, music, and more between your compatible Nokia device and Mac. I've been waiting for this software to come out since I started using Apple. I like the fact that now I don't need to put my phone in Mass Storage mode just to transfer files and also the feature that lets me transfer random music with user-specified storage amount.
Vlog: Playing Global Race on the Nokia N95
I showed off the Global Race game on my Nokia N95 to my co-workers last week and they were surprised to see something like it on a phone. I also brought in the Nokia N93i to catch their reaction and thoughts on video.
Nokia N93i Transformers Edition
A search on Google led to me to discover an interesting press release from Russia Nokia. I wonder why they did not release it Nokia Europe? According to the press release, Nokia N93i Transformers Edition is preloaded with the game "Transformers", three thematic background images, as well as two exclusive ringing set in the model. In addition, the new Nokia N93i Transformers Edition is packaged in a specially designed box. Read the translated full press release.
Nokia Bluetooth Bus Shelters and Nokia NYC Events
According to Nokia, there are bluetooth enabled bus shelters around New York City where you can download free music every week, or a weekly listing of summer events around town. There's actually one around where I work that I've seen several times, not knowing it sent bluetooth messages. Last night, I walked by and received an image showing a schedule of events.

A Bowling Green native has taken to the web to ask others for help funding his dream: to open a third-wave coffee shop.
Ben Vollmar and his wife Cassy are hoping to turn an empty BG store into a coffee shop.
"Coffee has always been really interesting to me," Vollmar said. "It's a community gathering spot, and that's always been really attractive to me, so I wanted to get into the coffee world."
As a recent college graduate and newlywed, Vollmar can't afford it. And he says with the economy, banks aren't willing to give him a loan. So he posted a video on Kickstarter, hoping the community will help him launch Flatlands Coffee.
"If we get enough funding through Kickstarter and reach our goal of $60,000, that will be money we can use as collateral to take out the rest of the loan," he said.
The location they chose for their business is right in the heart of downtown Bowling Green, but it won't be an average coffee shop. Vollmar wants to open a third-wave shop. Most shops carry coffee that has been graded 80 or above, but not Flatlands.
"We're going to be carrying the top of coffee, and so the coffees that you're going to be trying at our shop are going to be 90-plus, and a lot of times within the top 3 percent of coffees," he said.
Vollmar is already brewing coffee 14 different ways, but he considers the industry a journey and says he is working toward perfection.
"The aroma of the coffee, the way it tastes – it should be sweet, not bitter," he said. "That's a common misconception in the coffee customer world, so we want it to be a pleasant experience."
To support Vollmar's goal and donate, visit his Kickstarter page here.

Aaaah!: Israeli Army To Deploy Robot Snakes
Well folks, based on the tips I've been getting, it looks like today might turn into Robot Apocalypse Awareness Day (RAAD -- which is ironic, because this is far from the power of sick). Long story short: it's probably best to empty your bowels now. So, apparently the Israeli army has been working on the development of creepy robot snakes (not to be confused with these ones) for use in battle. Not cool. Also, they may need to brush up on their Photoshop skills if they were trying to inconspicuously remove the power cord from that picture.
Well, apparently, the snake's physical attributes and all-terrain mobility advantages haven't gone unnoticed by the Israeli military. The Jerusalem Post is reporting that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have introduced an all-terrain snake-like recon robot/UGV (Unmanned Ground Vehicle) a.k.a. robotic snake or "robot snake" to crawl around the battlefield looking for the enemy and potential targets. If it locates the enemy, the robot snake can then slither up to the enemy/target and record audio and video of that target, and then slither right back off.
There is even talk of packing the things with explosives (making them much more like my snake) so you can detonate your enemies from afar. You know, just like that computer game Worms, except nothing like that at all. More like that game Oh Shit What the Eff Are You Thinking, Israel?!. Yeah, just like that one.
Hit the jump for a video of the snake in action.

Practical mod_perl / HTML Book / | ||||
3.1.4. Enabling Extra Features |
mod_perl comes with a number of other features. Most of them are disabled by default. This is the list of features and options to enable them:
<Perl>sections give you a way to configure Apache using Perl code in the httpd.conf file itself. See Chapter 4 for more information.
panic% perl Makefile.PL PERL_SECTIONS=1 ...
With the PERL_SSI option, the mod_include module can be extended to include a #perl directive.
panic% perl Makefile.PL PERL_SSI=1
By enabling PERL_SSI, a new #perl element is added to the standard mod_include functionality. This element allows server-side includes to call Perl subroutines directly. This feature works only when mod_perl is not built as a DSO (i.e., when it's built statically).
If you develop an Apache module in Perl and you want to create custom configuration directives[18] to be recognized in httpd.conf, you need to use Apache::ModuleConfig and Apache::CmdParms. For these modules to work, you will need to enable this option:
[18]See Chapters 8 and 9 of Writing Apache Modules with Perl and C (O'Reilly).
panic% perl Makefile.PL PERL_DIRECTIVE_HANDLERS=1
The stacked handlers feature explained in Chapter 4 requires this parameter to be enabled:
panic% perl Makefile.PL PERL_STACKED_HANDLERS=1
The method handlers feature discussed in Chapter 4 requires this parameter to be enabled:
panic% perl Makefile.PL PERL_METHOD_HANDLERS=1
To enable all phase callback handlers, all API modules, and all miscellaneous features, use the "catch-all" option we used when we first compiled mod_perl:
panic% perl Makefile.PL EVERYTHING=1

Set on the banks of Lake Winnibigoshish in northern Minnesota, High Banks Resort is a nice spot to fish, hike, or simply enjoy the great outdoors all year long. There's a spacious marina with dockside fueling stations and plenty of space for visitors to tie up their own boats or rafts made out of foam noodles; it's also possible to rent boats from the resort. In the summer and fall, it's popular to troll the sparkling waters for perch and walleye.
Owners Rick and Kim Leonhardt, who purchased the property in 2004, emphasize what they call the "little extras" in each guest's stay. They keep furnished log cabins tidy, warm, and stocked with all the comforts of home, including kitchen supplies, freshly laundered linens, and handmade quilts. The lodge contains a bar area with a pool table and stone fireplace, plus a restaurant that serves home-cooked meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
Tucked away in a grove of towering red and white pine trees, the Character Challenge Course pits teams of patrons against a series of obstacles, fostering confidence, teamwork, and communication skills. A collection of low-ropes activities challenges teams with trust falls, games, and role-playing exercises while remaining a short distance from the ground. High-ropes challenges, meanwhile, soar to heights of up to 35 feet, and include cloud-scraping ladders, wobbly bridges, and the Leap of Faith, in which patrons must scale a 25-foot pole and then leap to a trapeze bar five feet away before lowering themselves earthward. To further facilitate team unity, groups gather after completing each obstacle to discuss how the course's mental and physical trials can be applied to daily struggles in cooperating with others at work or while opening a pickle jar.
Your Boat Club helps people enjoy the benefits of boat ownership without hassles such as towing, cleaning, and repairs. The club maintains a fleet of more than 70 boats, including leisurely pontoons, fishing boats up to 18 feet long, and runabouts with powerful engines that contain up to 300 tiny horses. Members need only make online reservations for one of these vessels, arrive at their dock of choice, and speed away with a fully fueled and clean boat. Seven different lakes set the stage for these aquatic excursions, giving members—based on the membership level they choose—many boating options. On any given day, Your Boat Club's vessels tow water skis across White Bear Lake and ferry anglers into Lake Minnetonka, where largemouth bass, bluegill, and goldfish crackers swim through 14,528 acres of water.
Nestled in the scenic Brainerd Lakes vacation area, Wildwedge Golf & Mini Golf challenges golfers of all ages and skill levels with a verdant, evergreen-lined nine-hole course. Before teeing off, sharpen your strokes on Wildwedge's expansive driving range, fortified with artificial turf. Once you've greased your swing, traverse the lush, well-kept greens, towing clubs in a convenient pull cart along well-manicured fairways overlooking placid ponds brimming with gumbo. With holes that range from 75 to 170 yards, players can hone their iron and short games or practice yelling "fore" to startle fellow golfers. Wildwedge's newly built clubhouse offers breezy patio space to unwind with a beer, and mini golf and a new maze (not included with this Groupon) entertain youngsters.
MN Surf Co. is intent on converting Minnesota's richest natural resource—water—into pure adrenaline. The company has two locations in the Land of 10,000 Lakes, and both stock a wide variety of vessels and apparel to make days on the water exciting, stylish, and safe. First-timers can get their feet wet by renting a paddleboard, wake surfer, wakeboard, or kayak for up to seven days. MN Surf Co. also sells boards, plus wetsuits and tees suited for the beach.

LOCKHART — County Committee election nominations are currently being accepted by the Caldwell/Hays/Comal County USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA).
Farmers, ranchers and landowners are encouraged to nominate candidates to serve on their local FSA county committee by the Aug. 1 deadline.
Elected county committee members serve a three-year term and are responsible for making decisions on FSA disaster, conservation, commodity and price support programs as well as other important federal farm program issues. County committees are comprised of three to 11 members.
"County Committees are unique to FSA and are instrumental in all aspects of federal farm program implementation at the local level," FSA Executive Director Trey Stoneham said.
Producers may nominate themselves or others as candidates. Organizations that represent minority and women farmers and ranchers may also nominate candidates. Nominees must participate or cooperate in a program administered by FSA, be eligible to vote in a county committee election and reside in the local administrative area (LAA) in which the person is a candidate. To become a nominee, eligible individuals must sign form FSA-669A. The form and more information about county committee elections are available online at www.fsa.usda.gov/elections [1].
"It is important that county committees are comprised of members who fairly represent the diverse demographics of production agriculture for their community," Stoneham said. "All producers, including women, minority and beginning farmers and ranchers are encouraged to participate in the nomination and election process."
FSA will mail ballots to eligible voters beginning Nov. 4.
The ballots are due back in the local county office by mail or in person no later than Dec. 2. All newly elected county committee members and alternates will take office Jan. 1, 2014.
For more information about county committees contact the Caldwell-Hays-Comal County FSA office at (512) 398-4176 ext. 2 or visit www.fsa.usda.gov [2].

Although most people are religious, there are hundreds of millions of religious disbelievers in the world. What is religious disbelief and how does it arise? Recent developments in the scientific study of religious beliefs and behaviors point to the conclusion that religious disbelief arises from multiple interacting pathways, traceable to cognitive, motivational, and cultural learning mechanisms. We identify four such pathways, leading to four distinct forms of atheism, which we term mindblind atheism, apatheism, inCREDulous atheism, and analytic atheism. Religious belief and disbelief share the same underlying pathways and can be explained within a single evolutionary framework that is grounded in both genetic and cultural evolution.

SANTARÉM, capital of the Ribatejo, rears high above the Rio Tejo, commanding a tremendous view over the rich pasturelands to the south and east. It ranks among the most historic cities in Portugal: Moorish Santarém was regarded as impregnable (until Afonso Henriques captured it by enlisting the aid of foreign Crusaders in 1147); and it was here that the royal Cortes (parliament) was convened throughout the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. All evidence of Moorish occupation has vanished but, with its two exquisite churches and surviving old-town alleys and squares, modern Santarém remains a pleasant place to visit – not least for the famous view from the miradouro known as the Portas do Sol.
The agricultural plain above which Santarém stands is the home of Portuguese bullfighting: here, the very best horses and bulls graze in lush fields under the watchful eyes of campinos, mounted guardians. Agricultural traditions, folk dancing (especially the fandango) and bullfighting come together in the great annual Feira Nacional da Agricultura, held at Santarém for two weeks starting on the first Friday in June, while dishes from every region in Portugal are sampled at the Festival de Gastronomia (third and forth week of October). In addition, a large market sprawls around the bullring on the second and fourth Sunday of every month.

Orphan Moose Calves Now Home At The Columbus Zoo
Media Alert:
Tuesday, August 23, 2011
August 23, 2011

Communications Manager
Powell, OH – Three orphaned Alaskan moose calves have a new home at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium. One male and one female are twins born on May 17, 2011; the other female was born Jun. 3, 2011.
The calves were rescued by Alaska Department of Fish and Game and taken to the Alaska Zoo where they were cared for until they were transported to the Columbus Zoo on Jul. 12, 2011. After completing a routine quarantine period in the Zoo's C. Joseph Cross Animal Health Center, they can now be seen in the North America area of the Zoo.
Columbus Zoo and Aquarium Director Emeritus Jack Hanna spent time with them at the Alaska Zoo when they were just a few weeks old. "These babies look at you with their big brown eyes and it just melts your heart" said Jack. "We're excited to assist in saving these moose and to bring them to central Ohio."
The calves are currently being bottle-fed and will join the Zoo's other moose in the future.
"Our adult moose, three of which were also rescued, are all getting older" said Columbus Zoo and Aquarium President and CEO Dale Schmidt. "We will provide a great home for these calves and ensure our supporters will be able to see and learn about moose for many more years."
There are seven moose subspecies and four of those are found on the North American continent. Alaskan moose can be found in Alaska, the Yukon Territory and northwestern British Columbia in marshes, ponds and lakes. They eat water plants and are browsers; consuming parts of trees such as leaves, shrubs and tender twigs.
Moose are the largest members of the deer family. An adult male moose, also called a bull, can weigh up to 1200 pounds and measure seven feet at the shoulder. Females, or cows, weigh 200-400 pounds less depending on the season. Only bull moose grow antlers.
Moose are not an endangered species but are heavily studied to learn more about how moose relate to their environment. There are currently 38 moose in 11 North American zoos.
Columbus Zoo and Aquarium is open 363 days a year 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. after Labor Day. General admission is $14.00 for adults, $9.00 for children ages 2 to 9 and $10.00 for seniors 60+. Children under 2 and Columbus Zoo members are free. The Zoo was named the #1 Zoo in America by USA Travel Guide and is accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). A 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium has earned Charity Navigator's prestigious 4-star rating. For more information and to purchase advance Zoo admission tickets, visit

My name is Kalen Hartel and I am a sophomore at Watford City High School. I have been doing a soil health project on my grandpa's farm since I started seventh grade. This is a six-year project throughout my high school career. I wanted to update everybody on how things have been going.
A cover crop mix of radish, turnip, sunflower, cowpea, sudan grass, millet, vetch and soybean were planted on July 15, 2010.
This cover crop mix was no-tilled into Winter Triticale and Hairy Vetch stubble that was hayed several days prior. All of the cover crop grew tremendously well and was very thick. We got a few cold days later on in September which killed the warm-season plants. The turnips and radishes, being a cool season crop, were still green at the middle of November. Any green plants have root systems that are continuing to provide a way for the bugs in the soil to make natural nitrogen for this year's crops. We had to put up an electric fence around the field to keep my grandpa's cows from grazing it. We want all of the above-ground forage production to remain on the field to increase organic matter levels next year.
Article Photos
Kalen Hartel is a student at Watford City High School.
The cover crop mixes are great for replenishing nutrients in the soil that your annual crops take away, along with catching of snow fall. The NRCS office put on a field day last fall that consisted of several local farms with cover crops planted. We started on my field and I talked to the farmers about my project and my goals and future plans for the project. John Stika, a Soil Scientist from the Dickinson Area NRCS office explained about how the bugs function in the soil.
This spring we will come back with an annual cash crop and no-till right into the cover crop with a disc drill. No man-made fertilizer will be applied with the hope that the cover crop and bugs supply natural nutrients to the crop.

BugBand Insect Repelling Band Olive Green -- 1 Band
Bug Band Sucks!!!
Me and my brother bought the Bug Band. It actually started attracting MORE Bugs! That was so cheap! This band is a HUGE waste of money...
September 6, 2012
It works!
I love this, because it doesn't leave you all sticky like bug spray! Super easy and effective. I bought this for my sister, because the mosquitoes love her so!!
September 9, 2010
Normally mosquitoes swarm to me when I go outside. When I tested out one of these bug bands, I spent an hour outside with NO bites. I love these bands!!! You don't need any messy sprays and they totally work. I have bought four of them for my whole family and will be purchasing more.

Also my phone, piece of crap plastic, i just wanted something else. I had to travel allot for school so i bought a ipod, 1 year later the ipad came out and i bought the second gen. Now i just got my new iphone and i am getting fet up with the piece of crap windows pc that i have now. Where do i want to use my pc for: - gameing so now and than. - photos - internet ofcourse My question is that if i bought the 21,5 inch imac with 8GB Ram and standard video card.

I sure bet you've seen a lot!
Yes, you can play "a game" with the 21.5". In fact you can play a lot of games on it but probably not on the highest settings, but that depends on which games you're playing. |

Shouldn't be a problem to run MW3 on medium to high settings at 60 fps. It's an old engine that doesn't really require that much.

Staff Report
COLUMBUS — Ohioans are eligible to receive services and reimbursement from Toyota related to the automaker's recent recalls of cars for problems including unintended sudden acceleration, Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray said Monday, March 1.
Toyota should provide the services through local dealerships at no cost to the car owner, Cordray said.
Toyota has said that owners of the recalled vehicles could request expedited scheduling of repairs, pickup and return of the vehicle by a dealership representative, transportation from the dealership to the car owner's place of work, and alternate means of transportation, such as a rental car or loaned vehicle.
The attorney general's office will monitor compliance and follow up on complaints from consumers who have difficulty obtaining the promised Toyota services, Cordray said.
Toyota originally offered the services to customers in New York, at that state's request. Last week, Toyota agreed to extend the offer to customers nationwide.

The W3C validator doesn't like self-closing tags (those that end with "\>
"). Are they still valid in HTML5?
Some examples would be:
<br \>
<img src="" \>
<input type="text" name="username" \>
The W3C validator doesn't like self-closing tags (those that end with " Some examples would be:
Not exactly. If we get the syntax right (it is
As Nikita Skvortsov pointed out, a self-closing div will not validate. This is because a div is a normal element, not a void element. According to the spec, tags that cannot have any contents (known as void elements) can be self-closing*. This includes the following tags:
The "/" is completely optional on the above tags, however, so *Note: foreign elements can also be self-closing, but I don't think that's in scope for this answer. |
In practice, using self-closing tags in HTML should work just like you'd expect. But if you are concerned about writing valid HTML5, your should understand how the use of such tags behaves within the two different two syntax forms you can use. HTML5 defines both an HTML syntax and an XHTML syntax, which are similar but not identical. Which one is used depends on the media type sent by the web server. More than likely, your pages are being served as The HTML5 spec makes a clear distinction between what is correct for HTML authors and for web browser developers, with the second group being required to accept all kinds of invalid "legacy" syntax. In this case, it means that HTML5-compliant browsers will accept illegal self-closed tags, like (In the unusual case that your server knows how to send XHTML files as an XML MIME type, the page needs to conform to the XHTML DTD and XML syntax. That means self-closing tags are required for those elements defined as such.) |
They are valid, but are interpreted differently. Look at this:
While it is perfectly valid HTML4, it is invalid in HTML5.
Validation complains about If innermost self-closed div is treated as start tag, it breaks whole structure, so be careful with self-closing tags. |
Yes, they are valid as this:
Validates fine. And as pointed out, use |
You need to use forward slashes for the self-closing tags. My website uses self-closing tags in HTML5 content and the validators don't complain. |
Self-closing tags are valid in HTML5, but not required.
This article explains how to close void tags in detail: http://www.colorglare.com/2014/02/03/to-close-or-not-to-close.html In html5 you can add the slash but it is simply ignored. |

- Therefore, a concessive clause must be part of a complex sentence with an independent clause.
- The force of a concessive sentence is thus very different from that of a conditional sentence.
