Syphon Filter 4 Sneaks Out, Sneaks Back In
Posted on Tuesday, May 31 @ 12:05:04 Eastern by Daniel Bischoff
If you were wondering what else Sony has planned for E3, your guess is as good as mine. I mean, who knows? A new Crash Bandicoot game developed by Naughty Dog? Let's not get our hopes up. When it comes to E3 scoops about the PlayStation brand, the official PlayStation Blog is the outlet you want to check out.
The hard investigative journalism they do over there is second to none. That's why they managed to dig up the goods on Syphon Filter 4, a PS3 game due out in late 2012. Apparently, the game has a brand-new engine developed by Sony Computer Entertainment London.
Unfortunately, the PlayStation Blog has some stern corporate overlords. That's why the post and all community forum threads had to be deleted. The Internet never forgets Sony! Never!

Debt as a control device in transitional economies : the experiences of Hungary and Poland
AbstractThe basic economic challenge in the transition from socialism to capitalism is creating incentive structures and institutions that promote enterprise change and restructuring. This is the motivation for most of the reforms debated during the transition - whether privatization, demonopolization, trade reform, or financial sector reform. Most research on corporate governance and privatization has focused on the role of owners - whether on the problems inherent in the separation of ownership and management (most Western literature) or on the need for true owners who represents the interests of capital (most literature on transition economies). But debt is also an important control device, as Western literature on corporate finance increasingly recognizes. The authors explore debt's role as a control device in transition economies, focusing especially on Hungary and Poland, which are relatively far along in the reform process. They ask, first, in what ways creditors exert control over firms in advanced market economies and how such control interacts with that exerted by equity holders. They then ask whether creditors in Central and Eastern European countries play similar roles and, if not, what roles they should play, and what can be done to give them the capacity and incentives to play those roles. They focus on three fundamental requirements for debt to function as a control device: information, proper incentives for creditors (including banks, suppliers, and government), and an efficient legal framework for debt collection (including collateral, workout, and bankruptcy regimes). While both countries are making progress in all three areas, there is still much to be done. Hungary and Poland illustrate only two of many approaches. Other transitional economies, such as the Czech Republic, Estonia, and Russia, are following different approaches that should be explored in future analysis.

Volusia County gets latest data mining technology to fight crime
Thursday, July 3, 2014 10:32 PM EDT
Thursday, July 10, 2014 10:32 PM EDT
By Mike Synan, Reporter -
DELAND, Fla. (WOFL FOX 35 ORLANDO) -
The Volusia County Sheriff's Office is the latest to join a growing number of local, state, and federal agencies to use data mining to help solve crimes. The County Council approved the purchase of JSI, a system that says it can intercept data of any kind. Chairman Jason Davis was happy to vote yes.
"It's part of a Homeland Security effort to make sure that we are safe."
The technology is used by the FBI, ATF, and Department of Homeland Security. Gary Davidson with the Volusia County Sheriff's Office says it will be used in this county by the Volusia Bureau of Investigations for the major cases.
"Upper and mid level drug trafficking cases. They handle large scale vice crimes, so these are really big cases where technology is absolutely essential to effectively investigating these cases."
The Sheriff's Office would not detail each way the JSI would be used to protect investigative integrity, but did assure FOX 35 they would not use it for data mining or random searches. The protections were good enough to convince Chairman Davis citizens would be protected.
"Nobody's civil rights have been violated yet. So I think the Sheriff's very good about that, making sure everybody's rights are right where we need to be so we are good."
Spokesman Gary Davidson tells FOX 35 each time information would be investigation from the collection of data JSI is capable of, the Sheriff's Office will get a warrant or court order before searching that information.

7 Secrets to Dominate Digital in 2014
February 14, 2014
There are infinite solutions to consider regarding your digital strategy for 2014. What's most important to dealers are more showroom opportunities, and that should absolutely be the focus in the year ahead. Amplify your digital approach by increasing the relevancy of your content on your website, Google search results, and listing sites. Winning the click is all about providing relevant information and turning those clicks into opportunities. Remember these 7 insights to dominate digital in 2014 with a more relevant strategy.
1. Value. It's more than just price. Realize competitive pricing is important, but value will take you further. Consumers want to see the top value attributes of a vehicle and other relevant information so they can make an educated purchase decision and determine for themselves if they're getting a good deal. Display top features, options, and reconditioning highlights to shift consumer focus from price to value.
2. Display reconditioning on your VDPs. Recon info is huge, and most customers will never see it unless they visit your showroom. Why wait to tell them your vehicle has brand new tires? The secret here is to graphically showcase this information and digitalize your used car folder right on your VDP.
3. Search. When it comes to pay-per-click, relevancy is key. Provide ads that never guess at the right message and include options! A relevant ad, with a relevant landing page will be rewarded by Google with a higher quality score and a smaller cost-per-click. Relevant landing pages do NOT include search results pages. Drive people to a smarter, highly specific landing platform that will match a consumer's request 100% of the time. Relevant landing sites are based on the consumer's search and the ad generated for that specific search.
4. Retargeting. Auto shoppers now visit an average of 24 sources before making a purchase. They will absolutely cross-shop, therefore retargeting is crucial. Use ads based on data from a consumer's prior online behavior. Make retargeted ads vehicle specific and showcase top features graphically.
5. Mobile. Over 47% of all auto searches come from mobile devices – so optimize all pages for mobile and use responsive technology across devices.
6. Stop focusing on leads! Shift focus from lead generation to improving the foundation. Less than 15% of auto shoppers submit leads. Therefore 85% are making their purchase decisions online before ever walking into a showroom. Merchandise your vehicles better digitally so that you can still ensure lead generation while driving more showroom opportunities. As innovators, we must remember that successful ad campaigns can only be optimized when they are used to promote a product with a solid foundation.
7. Consumers don't read webpages. They scan them! Remember this and always display value, option, and reconditioning highlights graphically so you can do a better job promoting the value in your vehicles.

Shelby County 4-H held a Scrapbooking Crop on June 23, 2014 at the Shelby County Extension Office. Members brought their pictures, papers and embellishments and scrapbooking tools such as paper cutters, punches, stamps and a die cutting machine were provided by Yolanda Nation, Debora Fogleman and Dianna Furr. Scrapbooking is a new state 4-H project this year. The project is divided into beginners, intermediates and advanced level exhibitors. Some basic requirements for the project is preparing 4 pages (front and back) which is a total of 8 decorated pages. Members use embellishments to decorate their pages and the pages should tell a story.
Thanks to Debora and Dianna for their help.

National championship game had a 17.2 rating up 9%Rose Bowl second with a 13.2 up 13%The Fiesta bowl was 4th DOWN 21%... why playoffs wont happen.
A lot of people boycotted the Fiesta bowl out of frustration. Unfortunately, they didn't realize that that's exactly what the BCS was hoping would happen.The Orange Bowl was also up, but do you really think the majority of people gave a crap about Ga Tech and Iowa? Ratings mean very little.
its whatever even if the ratings were up 2000000000000% there would still be no playoffs, the BCS schools would lose to much $. There has not been a legitimate national champ ever in 1A anyhow.

A- Nice creamy dark mocha 1-2" head on a bitch black body. It is weird seeing such a thick black stout being poured out of a can.
S- Sweet chocolate malt, hints of dark fruits, light burnt grains, grass hops, light citrus parts, light smoke, and coffee.
T- Blend of coffee, chocolate, sweet caramel, burnt grains, some smoke, hints of citrus, hints of dark fruits, and some grass. The bitter malt and hops linger in the mouth with a light warming from alcohol and some burnt notes.
M- Nice thick chewy body with a creamy smoothness to it. Leaves a really big dry note.
D- I think this is a great beer. I would try finding this again and thank you to Franksnbeans for this in a great thank you package.

12oz. can poured into imperial pint glass.
A: Pardon my language, but HOLY SHIT this beer is DARK. There's no color, no light shining through during the iPhone flashlight test, and absolutely no highlights either. What. The. Hell. This brew is scary! A moderately vigorous pour results in a monstrous light brown head that's dense and creamy and takes ages to deflate. Leaves tons of lacing in its wake.
S: Delectably rich semi-sweet chocolate syrup and roasted malts up front create a boisterous and powerful aroma. A little bit of roasted coffee and Earthy hops come through as well. One of the most delightful aromas I've experienced.
T: This is unbelievable... These flavors are off the charts. HUGE waves of rich, decadent chocolate. Those Earthy hops creep in that add just enough bitterness to offset the chocolatey sweetness. The middle offers a few molasses-like notes, but primarily consist of the initial chocolate hop medley. It's all beginning to feel a little too sweet, but then... the finish offers a wonderful deviation from the candied bliss and transitions to an absolutely phenomenal freshly-ground roasted coffee. Bliss. Pure Bliss.
M: The body is full, and it might actually be more accurate to describe it as huge. The closest thing to a flaw I can find here is that it's not as creamy and rich as I had hoped and the carbonation is just a hair above my comfort level in a RIS, but even still, I can't drop it below "outstanding." Oskar Blues just knows what they're doing.
O: I'm having a hard time processing my thoughts into words right now... I've always held Stone's offering of this style in the highest regard, but I think it has been replaced. I don't know what the folks down at Oskar Blues are doing, but they're doing it right. Every aspect of this brew is so powerful and each flavor is so intense that it borders unbearable, but then it transitions into something new and it just all adds up to a divine experience. I'm simply in awe right now, and slightly sad that I've taken the last sip whilst typing my conclusion... If you haven't had this yet, stop what you're doing right now and buy it.

4.18/5 rDev -4.6%
Unbelievably today was the first time I have had this offering.Poured into a way over chilled pint glass at Sticks and Stones a jet black with a minimal mocha colored head that was gone quickly.Aromas of dark fruit,vanilla,and dark roast mainly stood out in the nose,a bit of char also showed thru as the beer warmed up to the right temp.Sweetish and rich up front with vanilla,and dark fruit standing out,the chocolate flavors are more bitter along with a hefty roast in the finish.Its thick and chewey and glides down easy,it is a big brash IRS,one to savor.

Appearance - This is very dark in color, solid black if that's possible, with a beautiful, super-dark head that is (I really know there is no such thing as this) a light black color. The head showed great retention and just looked like a puffy goose-down pillow.
Smell - This is my favorite type of RIP profile. The roasted malts are there but very faint. The big aroma is that stiff brown sugar on toast with butter washed down with a cool cup of cocoa.
Taste - The wonderful sweetness from the nose comes over at the taste with a perfect step up from the roasted malts. There is a very mild and pleasant burnt flavor that does a terrific job of lightly cutting the big sugars. The finish is all roasty malt just the way I like it.
Mouthfeel - This is bigger than medium-bodied but I wouldn't call it full. The bitterness is not shy but doesn't overpower. There's a light tinge of alcohol in the middle with a tick up in the bitter department at the end. There's some decent carbonation in here as well which I usually don't find much of in the style but here it seems right at home.
Drinkability - One of the best-drinking 10% RIPs that I've ever had, and from a can yet.

Many thanks to xmarcnolanx for trading this to me. It's surprisingly fun to watch a jet black and oily beer with a mega huge brown head pour from a can. Truly. Ten Fiddy's appearance is nearly unbeatable. Carbonation is relatively light but the head remains an inch or more thick for several minutes before coming to rest at about a 1/4 inch. Aroma is deeply roasted with faint cherry and vanilla notes. Caramel malt is also present in the aroma but coffee and chocolate are both mysteriously absent. The flavor changes things up a bit as that intense roasted malt character leans towards coffee. I emphasize leans because coffee character in this beer is subtle at best. Chocolate too is minimal if present at all in the taste. Again , however, cherry is quite pronounced with some vanilla as well. Creamy is an understatement as to mouthfeel. As stated, carbonation level is low, and the bubbles that are around just seem to roll of the tongue. Nice bitterness in the finish. Extremely smooth, creamy, and luscious. Not as depthful as I would like and lacking a couple of those key RIS atributes, but...this is still a wonderful beer. It's so easy to drink, looks and feels great, and taste pretty decent. If this becomes available around here I could see picking up a 4-pack with some regularity.

Tried this last night for the first time!
It has a smooth oily pour, with a dark head.
a malty, coffee smell, not too overwhelming.
It's finish is glorious with tastes of slight sweetness.
While sipping the flavors became even more robust and delicious.
I really enjoyed this beer and was bummed I only bought one can.
Will definitely buy again!

The pour is extremely viscous, thick, and blacker than a black hole. Let's put it this way - if your motor oil looks like this, then you should have changed your oil months ago. A creamy, tan-leather head caps the beer as it just sits, still and menacing. Swirling the snifter around allows the head to grow even more as the beer makes a slow and deep sloshing noise as it lapses over itself.
The nose is as powerful as the appearance; deeply roasted, almost burnt malts and grains; thick, bittersweet chocolate; creamy, dark fudge. Sweetness is heavily present from the malts, and some cocoa beans, burnt coffee/espresso, and slight char reside in the background. An ever-so-slight hop presence can be detected as well, even more so as the beer warms up; ashy, leafy, herbal. I like RIS's to have a deep, bitter offset, and if the nose is any indication - Ten FIDY will fulfill that desire.
Upon taking the first sip, I'm pretty blown away. The body hits my palate as creamy and chewy as they come. I feel like I should be cutting this beer into pieces with a knife, I can't tell if I'm drinking it or eating it. The intense roasted malts hit your tongue right away and come hand-in-hand with a gentle gradient that runs a slow course on your palate from a mellow sweetness to a sharp, yet delicate bitterness. The malts appear as a rich, dark chocolate, creamy, bitter espresso beans, and even a deep, dark fruit sweetness in the form of bruised figs and raisins.
Once the sweetness has taken its turn, the bitterness starts to make its crescendo on your palate - some more of that sharp fruitiness comes back in a subtle, yet effective way, along with a new set of flavors that start to take over. Ashy, leafy, and herbal hops, woodiness, slight nuttiness, and smokey, charred bitter hints sift through the static and leave a lasting impression long into the aftertaste. I haven't taken a sip in 5 minutes and I can still taste Ten FIDY. The 10.5% ABV is nothing to scoff at, and it provides a robust feel and a solidifying warmth all around. Carbonation is fairly low, but strong enough to bring out the best flavors - it works incredibly well, here.
Ten FIDY is simply outstanding. One of the first Russian Imperial Stouts that I truly fell in love with. It's quite a shame that I can't get this regularly in my region, or you can bet my fridge would be stocked with it all the time. If you're a fan of big-ass, robust RISs, do yourself a solid and seek this bad boy out - you won't be disappointed. Plus - it comes in a can. How fucking cool is that?

A pitch black beer that looks really freaky as it pours from the can. A small brown head settles into a ring of lacings.
The aroma is quite powerful with notes of roasted malts, piny hops, chocolate, molasses, coffee and a hint of alcohol. Dangerously close to being a mess, but it keeps it together.
The smell is quite sweet at first with lots of chocolate and roasted malts, coffee and molasses. Hints of soy sauce. Then it turns fairly bitter with notes of bitter roasted aromas and piny hops. Strangely enough, although it feels powerful it feels like it lacks something in the middle. The finish is fairly warming with notes of sweet alcohol, roasted malts and hops.
Medium to full body, quite lively carbonation actually, but the mouthfeel i smooth.
This is quite a massive stout and it's constantly on the edge of collapsing into a sweet and bitter mess, but for the most part I think it manages to deliver. I had this at room temperature and I think I would have liked to have had it served a few degrees cooler.

Had this on tap and in the can at the Distillery in Sav. GA. Both were equally great.
Ten Fidy pours jet black with a coca colored head. Aroma is full of Roast, Coca, and Dark Fruit, Flavor washes your senses with roast, coffee, rasins and prunes. The alcohol is present as it is in all my favorite imperial stouts, but it is not obtrusive, subtle actually when you consider that it is 10% ABV. Superbly drinkable this beer could get you into trouble if you are not paying attention.
Comparing this beer to others in the style I have to put it at the top, de-throning others such as Avery's Czar, Bell's Expedition, and Old Rasputin. Even the perennial #2 beer can take some lessons away from Ten Fidy.
I don't want to rate this beer perfect, but I can't mark it down in any of the categories in good conscience. At $8 for 12 ounces that is a bit steep, but I'll gladly pay for a couple of snifters full to revisit this gem every winter.

Reviewed from notes written on 2/15/11. Thanks for the venue, Walter the Dog.
Ten FIDY ( I love that name) pours a scorched engine oil black into a medium-sized wine glass. There was no fizz at all when I popped the tab on the can, which led me to wonder if it was under carbonated. No head appears at all; only a faint haze of dark brown sits atop the black body. Just a hint of a brown hue is visible around the edges and there is no lacing to be found on my glass.
The smell is very toffee heavy upfront, with quite a bit of caramel and dark chocolate notes showing through. Some roasted malt and acidic coffee scents are present, but they reside well in the background. Dark cherry and plum aromas also hide in the background. As it warms, the roasted malt and coffee smells become much more prevalent. Strangely, the smell reminds me a bit of creamy Baileys. "I'm Old Greg!"
I find there to be a perfect balance of acidic roastiness and sweet creaminess in the taste. As it warms, the acidic roastiness pops and nudges the the creaminess of the dark chocolate, toffee, and caramel flavors out of the way a bit. This is a very full, complex, present taste with a nicely dry and roasty finish.
Ten FIDY has a full and viscous feel in my mouth. It is very creamy and Baileys-like, but with enough of a roasty and hoppy bite on the sides of my palate to balance the feel out. This beer is a member of the three B's club: Big. Bold. Badass.
This is a slow sipping beer and an ear and face warmer, to be sure. It is not one that I would ever think of having several of in a sitting, simply because it is so heavy. It is, however, a beer that I would be thrilled to have from time to time.

Looks like wonderful used motor oil that I want to drink.
Licorice, subtle smoke, chocolate notes on the nose to name a few.
Dark fruit(prune), ruby port, cold coffee, with a dry, bitter chocolate finish and alcohol coming in late and warming the chest.
Mouthfeel is viscous and coats your mouth for a short time after the swallow.
Very well balanced and drinkable for the style. Elegant. It's so strange that this beer comes from a can.

Imperial Stout out of a can huh? Interesting.
A-I'm not sure if pour is an accurate description of how this comes out of the can. Sludge maybe. Dark think looking motor oil with 1 inch brown head that dissipated quickly.
S-Great espresso chocolate smell. No vegetal smells. Not super compelx but really nice.
T-So thick, bitter espresso, chocolate, light dark fruit taste as warms, some alcohol burn and astringency on the end.
M-So full in the mouth, undercarbonated, the astringency causes not to be totally smooth.
D-This is a sipper for sure. I could put down one more on a cold night.
Over the top flavors, but one you should get your hands on.

12 oz. bottle poured into a John Smith's snifter. "Canned with Care 10-27-09"
It pours a nearly jet black with a 1 finger dark mocha head. The head dies fairly quickly leaving just a ring of bubbles around the edge of the glass.
The nose is deep and rich filled with alcoholic chocolate. The alcohol is nice and warming, absence of harshness. There isn't much of a roasted character at all.
The taste is really great, it's rich and full of sweet sweet chocolate. Much like the nose the roast character is very low but I think, coupled with some hop bitterness, lends a contrast to the sweetness so it isn't overwhelming and cloying. There is just a hint of a nice mild coffee flavor and licorice at the end. It's really a great beer.
Mouthfeel is just amazing. Although it has a nice carbonation level the mouthfeel is liquid velvet, just coats the mouth and doesn't let go. The strength of the beer can be tasted but it's not distracting, it's just great. Drinkability is above average for the style but because of the fuller mouthfeel this beer lends itself to be a nice sipper and enjoyed for a good 30-60+ minutes. Just wonderful.

Finnish women use physical discipline on children more often than men
According to a recent survey, commissioned by the Central Union of Child Welfare and conducted by the research company Taloustutkimus, Finnish women resort to the physical punishment of children more frequently than do Finnish men.
The survey indicates that more than half of Finnish mothers have pulled their children's hair and one in three has rapped her child's fingers. More than 70 per cent of all mothers have used some sort of violence.
Somewhat surprisingly, women actually use corporal punishment, even though they adopt a much more negative attitude towards physical discipline in general than men do.
Scientist Heikki Sariola from the Central Union of Child Welfare can find many reasons for women's violence. The physical violence by mothers is an issue that is not spoken of. Hence little or no attention is being focused on the prevention of the corporal punishment of children.
"These attitudes do not cease to exist without conscious self-control training and conviction", argues Sariola.
One of the reasons for the violence used by mothers is women's increased use of intoxicants, notes Sariola. A hungover mother is likely to be nervous, stressed, and to have a low threshold level for lashing out when things go wrong.
On the whole, one in four Finns regards the physical discipline of children as acceptable - at least in exceptional situations. The attitudes have improved noticeably in recent years. Still three years ago, one in three Finns approved of corporal punishment.
Even though the attitudes of Finnish parents are gradually changing, the majority of them are nonetheless still using corporal punishment on their children.
The researcher says that 73% of women and 68% of men reported that they have sometimes used physical punishment.
"Many still regard physical discipline as a behavioral modification technique, even though corporal punishment has been banned in Finland already for 25 years", Sariola concluded.
The survey involved 1,000 respondents aged 15 to 79 in 91 locations across Finland.

History be damned. And that's no joke, though the show sometimes feels like one. The CW's Reign (Thursday, 9/8c) is all about herstory, an opulent and giddy bodice-ripper very loosely inspired by the teenage years of the ultimately ill-fated Mary, Queen of Scots (a pouty Adelaide Kane). It's like Masterpiece Junior as seen on MTV after a jolt of Red Bull, or more to the point, Gossip Girl goes to court. And while it will win no prizes for scholarly accuracy (to put it mildly), Reign is such a fanciful folly of royal romance and literally poisonous court gossip that it's hard not to hail a CW show that breaks so lavishly from the network's usual formula of angst-ridden ghouls and cloying rom-com.

StumbleUpon adds apps to its recommendation list
Discovery engine StumbleUpon will now recommend Android applications too, offering users some help in navigating the quagmire of mediocrity that is the modern app store. StumbleUpon already provides a valuable service to those who know they want to surf the web, but can't decide why, or want to watch a video but can't decide …
Eee Hee Hee?
My Android farts much better than your iPad and a lot better than your iPhone?
Is the StumbleUpon app the best app for finding the best app? Is there an app to tell me which is the best app to tell me which is the best app?
Help, I'm recursing!
StumbleUpon is great but ...
... it only becomes great after you have used it a lot. Whenever I recommend it to people I always try to prepare for their initial disappointment - after you have established a network of people whose likes and dislikes coincide with yours it is absolutely ace.

The July-August issue looks at partisanship in legislatures, renovating capitols, pay for lawmakers, the challenging job of chief of staff, the costs of legislation and much more.
Current Issue
The nation's first case of child abuse was criminally prosecuted in what became known as the Mary Ellen case in 1874. By the mid 1960s, 49 states passed child abuse reporting laws. A century after that case, the Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) was enacted in 1974 and marks its 40th anniversary this year.

A comprehensive, recently-released study by the nonpartisan think-tank Eno Center for Transportation entitled "Partnership Financing: Improving Transportation Infrastructure Through Public Private Partnerships," makes several useful recommendations for those states and localities that may want to explore the possibility of adding public-private partnerships (P3s) to their infrastructure financing tool box.
In something of a surprise move, Michigan hopped on the bandwagon of states that have passed minimum wage increases this session. Why a surprise? The Michigan Legislature is controlled by Republicans, not typically in favor of minimum wage hikes.

And no, 5 over is not worthy of being pulled over. That officer was fishing for something bigger. I have been pulled over for "I stopped you because of where you came from". I was in my own neighborhood leaving my friend's house and going home 2 blocks away! He was sitting in an alleyway at the end of my friend's block when he saw me stop for the stop sign. He actually sniffed my truck to see if pot was in the air. I happened to be a white guy that still lives in a neighborhood that has turned, mainly, Hispanic. Can anyone say "Profiling"?
He repeated his reason for stopping me at least 4 times during the whole thing and every time he had no answer to my questions of 'What does that mean? I just told you who's house I came from and you said you do not want to go back and confirm that is where I came from! I asked you if David is under some kind of police watch and that you could not have possibly seen me leave there from where you were sitting anyway!' SO , WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?? He had the most befuddled look I've ever seen on an officer that's stopped me. Because it's not right what he did and he couldn't answer the honest questions concerning his statement. He stopped me 10 houses from my own and then told me to get home. I said I would already be there and in bed if he hadn't wasted both of our time. He had nothing to say and we parted ways.

Scott Nicholls has been scoring points, flying everywhere and also coped with a stomach bug
By Macalister Bryan -
12 June 2008 14:58
After a couple of days off, it was back into the normal hectic schedule of the season.
I was in Poland on Friday for a re-arranged fixture. It was a bit of a disaster as my Polish motorbike problems continued, we just can't seem to get the set-up right there at the moment. It was a huge disappointment as I really thought that we'd made progress.
I flew back on Saturday to ride for Eastbourne. Unfortunately when I woke up I'd picked up a bug which was very unpleasant. Sick at both ends, but you have to carry on.
I rode ok and scored 11 points from four rides. I didn't take my last ride as we'd won the meeting by then, and I was feeling terrible. Then it was straight to the airport, which was a traffic nightmare with road works on the M25.
So Sunday was back to Poland, and we got an away win. It was much happier with the bike and set up and I scored nine points, so maybe we are getting somewhere after all. I've booked in a test session in Poland next week so hopefully we can get it sorted once and for all.
Monday was back for Eastbourne against Belle Vue in Manchester. Lukasz Jankowski unfortunately had a big crash so the meeting was held up. You want him to be OK and to get the best care, you know it can happen to any of us, but you are also conscious that you need to get back to the airport, which eventually took me until 3am.
I raced in Sweden on Tuesday, unfortunately the team lost away, which was a disappointment, but individually I was happy with my form as I managed to score 13 points.
Yesterday (Wednesday) was a day off, so me and Sophie managed to get away from it all for a few hours.
Right now I'm packing my bags to race in Swindon tonight, and then it's straight onto Copenhagen for the Danish Grand Prix. It will be a fantastic atmosphere over there, it's in the national stadium and it should be a sell out.
I've gone well there in the past and it's a track I enjoy. It is one of the best 'one-off' tracks and always seems to hold-up well. It's great, when you look up, every seat is full, which is just brilliant.
I feel my form is good right now so I am looking forward to getting back into the points. It would be great to be in the shake up by the time we get to the British Grand Prix at the Millennium Stadium later this month.
The FIM Danish SGP is live on Sky Sports 2 from 6pm on Saturday.

O2 claim to have restored full 3G service to mobile network
Rob Williams
Rob Williams is Senior Online Reporter at the Independent.
Thursday 12 July 2012
Mobile phone company O2 - the latest victim of a technology system crash - say they have fixed the problems with their service as the focus switches to compensation for affected customers.
Potentially hundred of thousands of customers were left without any service since yesterday afternoon.
O2 offered no further word on compensation after earlier saying that it was "focusing on getting full service resumed for all of our customers".
The company said this morning that text message and mobile calling capabilities had been restored, and this afternoon claimed to have fixed the problems with their 3G services as well.
Some O2 customers faced a second day of disruption to their services despite engineers working through the night to try and resolve the problem.
Network issues began being reported yesterday afternoon.
It's not yet known how many O2 customers have been affected by the outage - but it is thought to be in the hundreds of thousands.
O2 said this afternoon: "Following previous updates, our tests now show that all our 2G and 3G services have been fully restored for affected customers.
If any customers are still having problems we recommend they turn their phone off and on again.
Once again, we are sorry."
Disgruntled and angry mobile phone users took to social networks this morning to express their anger over the outage.
Sean Foster (SeanFoster) tweeted: "Arrrrrrrghhhhh! My phone was fine all day yesterday and now after their failed overnight work o2 have screwed it!!"
Another Twitter user Leanna May (LeannaMai) said: "I can't bare this any longer!! THREE o2 contracts, NONE WORK. And I'm at home pregnant in agony! Great, who should I call? No one!!"
David de la Mere (dmeeno) also took to the micro blogging site, tweeting: "I probably shouldn't have been so smug about having an O2 signal yesterday. I don't have one now."
High profile O2 users also took to twitter to complain - including former Home Secretary Jacqui Smith and BBC presenter Huw Edwards.
Variations on the O2 theme had been trending on twitter since yesterday and 'My o2' was still doing so in London this morning.
The problems at 02 come against a backdrop of recent high-profile system failures.
A NatWest bank IT meltdown affected the banking services for customers and has left the company still clearing up the chaos caused by the failures three weeks later.
It is claimed the group has resolved 90% of the 21,000 issues that could not be resolved straight away.
In other technological failure news - there was a rare outage of the BBC news website yesterday after what the public service broadcaster described as a "major technical issue".
The BBC has declined to provide further details but said an investigation has been launched.
Michael Allen, director of IT service management at technology performance company Compuware, said: "In recent weeks we've seen how technology problems can have significant problems on the everyday lives of millions of people. First we saw the problems at NatWest and RBS and now 02. Not being able to make a call will be as serious to many people as not being able to take cash out of the bank.
"Unfortunately, these problems will only continue to increase unless organisations take a fundamentally different approach to the way they manage the performance of the IT systems we rely on to go about our day to day lives.
"O2's ability to deliver a service to customers will rely on hundreds of different components, systems and applications working in harmony. This can make preventing these types of service disruptions difficult as well as finding the root cause time consuming."

Two people who were killed when a car struck a light pole on the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway in northwest suburban Hoffman Estates on Sunday morning have been identified.
The crash happened about 7:45 a.m. when the driver of a silver Toyota Corolla headed west on I-90 near Barrington Road lost control of the car, which fell off the roadway and struck a light pole, according to preliminary information from Illinois State Police.
The car came to a stop on the left shoulder of the eastbound lanes of the tollway, police said.
David Xiao, 25, and Nguyen Knoi Nguyen Pham, also 25, were killed in the crash, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's office. Both men were dead on the scene.
Xiao, of the 2300 block of South Stewart Avenue in Chicago; and Pham, whose home address was unknown early Tuesday, both died of multiple injuries from the crash, according to the medical examiner's office.
A third person in the car survived, but that person's condition was not immediately known, State Trooper Michelle Kistulinec said.
All lanes on the tollway were closed for nearly four hours as crews cleared the wreck.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.

My little sister got this cute little bow belt for Christmas that I thought was so cute so I decided to make my own. I am really pleased with this project— it is one of my favorite things I've made!
I used leather from a skirt that I got at Goodwill and shortened. It was the perfect length actually. I hope my directions are clear so that you can make your own!
