BUT John Wayne did very much to help the warriors. Just in the showing of "The Sands Of Iwo Jima" would boost the enlistment in the Marine Corps every time it was shown!! He never professed to being a military man but was accepted by the military as a "good guy". Now going to military Hollywood types, you can count on one hand the military vets that are Hollywooders today. Not so back in the years. There were a few established stars that went on active duty during WW II plus many, many that would go on to be stars. I'll taker John Wayne over the current Michael Moore types any day of the week !! Today's younger and obviously uninformed politically "Hollywood Heros" just don't make the cut as real men !!
Michelle has a right to snarl !! I'm sure you didn't know about the big fire in Colorado the past summer that put her own home in danger of being toast. And to add to make matter worse, el supremo had his Air Force ! fly to the airport there right in the middle of firefighting operations and all firefighting flights were stopped because of security of el supremo and his pack. The shelters you were refering too were being auctioned off just prior to and during the emergency in the notheastern states. Not cancelled but many were still auctioned off.
Currently it seems they are preparing to either shoot or iincarnate all that disagree with the obama administration.
Just wondering how many caskets were floating around as were in Katrina ?? Granted it was a bad storm but just count how many hurricanes hit the gulf coasts !! We are just better prepared for them.
Semper Fi !!! One big party !!
Then they will be as uninformed as you are !! Let them watch Glenn Beck !!
What is already there can't be driven to it !! If ignorance is bliss, you must be one happy camper !!
Yes, and all are talented and beautiful women !! You got a problem with that ???
Happy Turkey day, Michelle !!
I haven't seen any democrat columns that aren't either racist or mean-spirited against a conservative so far !! As far as conservatives loving to pretend sentiments against the holiday spirit or any other thing that needs charity being tended by a liberal, I have never seen. A good example is by fact checking of just how much chartible things George w. Bush and Mitt Romney verses the current or last democrat administration has made. Check your facts before you mouth off !!

OneChiacgo Futures Exchange and Nasdaq Liffe Markets (NQLX) have signed up SunGard's GMI back-office clearing system for trading single-stock futures (SSFs).OneChicago, an electronic venture between Chicago's three derivatives exchanges - the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the Chicago Board Options Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade - is set to start trading SSF's before the end of the year, as is NQLX, a joint venture between US securities exchange Nasdaq and the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange (Liffe).
"The fact that a large number of our member firms use GMI will help ensure thorough support for our firms, and position us well for a successful launch," said Bill Boyk, executive vice-president of market operations at NQLX.
The American Stock Exchange also has regulatory approval to trade SSFs, but has yet to unveil its technology plans.
Last month the final barrier to trading SSFs in the US was removed when the Securities and Exchange Commission approved customer margin rules. Two years ago, the US Congress lifted a 20-year ban on SSF trading, authorising trading to commence from August 21, 2001. But work on implementing a regulatory framework, particularly on margining requirements, proved to be slower than expected.

Children's Health
Growth and Development, Ages 6 to 10 Years - What to Expect
Milestones by age continued...
By 7 years of age, most children:
- Begin to show a preference for a certain learning style, such as hands-on or quiet reflection.
- Develop friendships, usually with other children of the same gender.
- Like to be involved in some group play but need time alone too.
- Enjoy arts and crafts and physically active play.
By 8 years of age, most children:
- Generally think of things as "either-or." Things are either great or awful, ugly or beautiful, right or wrong. Children focus on one part of an issue at a time, which makes it hard for them to understand complexities.
- Are reading.
- Enjoy being around their friends. Some enjoy group activities, such as team sports.
- Have rapidly changing emotions. Angry outbursts are common. Many children of this age are critical of others, especially of their parents. They may seem dramatic and sometimes rude.
- Have well-developed speech and use correct grammar most of the time. Many children have well-developed conversation skills.
By 9 years of age, most children:
- Think more independently and are developing good decision-making skills. This reflects their increasing critical-thinking skills and ability to consider more than one perspective at a time.
- Have caring, solid friendships.
- Have gained a strong sense of empathy, which is understanding and being sensitive to the feelings of others.
- Are curious about relationships between boys and girls. Few will admit to this interest. And most will insist that they are horrified by the opposite sex.
- Speak well and pronounce words clearly.
- Become increasingly interested in team sports.
- Like to draw, paint, make jewelry, build models, or try other activities that use fine motor skills.
By 10 years of age, most children:
- Know the complete date (day of the week, day of the month, month, and year).
- Enjoy being with friends and often have a "best" friend of the same gender.
- Continue to enjoy team and group activities.
- Continue to insist that they are not interested in children of the opposite sex. But they may show off, tease, or act silly as a way of interacting with them.
- Have speech patterns that are nearly at an adult level.
- Sometimes seek out magazines and books in subjects of special interest.
- Have good control of large and small muscles. Some children enjoy activities that use all these skills, such as basketball, dancing, and soccer.

Autocar reports that Porsche is hard at work on whipping up a new four-cylinder to power everything from the oft-rumored small Porsche as well as the Boxster, Cayman and potentially even the 911. While speaking at the Detroit Auto Show, Wolfgang Durheimer, the head of research and development for the automaker, said that Porsche was already slaving over the four-pot and that it could potentially be applied to models outside of the upcoming sub-Boxster model.
There was some indication that the smaller Porsche would borrow bits from a sister car built by Volkswagen and Audi, and while that route would certainly cut down on development costs for all three cars, Porsche seems to be bent on powering its version with a beating heart designed and developed in house.
If you're still reeling from the thought of a four-cylinder 911, breathe easy. Durheimer said that for the time being, Porsche plans to keep to the flat-six for its bread-and-butter sports machine, though there's no telling what the far-off future could bring.

The Question of Hu
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
This lively and elegant book by the acclaimed historian Jonathan D. Spence reconstructs an extraordinary epsiode in the early intercourse between China and Europe. It is the story of John Hu, a lowly but devout Chinese Catholic who in 1722 accompanied a Jesuit missionary on a journey to France−a journey that ended with Hu's confinement in a lunatic asylum. At once a triumph of historical detective work and a gripping narrative, The Question of Hu deftly probes the collision of two cultures, with their different definitions of faith, madness, and moral obligation.

Measures of Spread for AP Statistics

Simply knowing about the center of a distribution doesn't tell you all you might want to know about the distribution. One group of 20 people earning $20,000 each will have the same mean and median as a group of 20 where 10 people earn $10,000 and 10 people earn $30,000. These two sets of 20 numbers differ not in terms of their center but in terms of their spread, or variability. Just as there were measures of center based on the mean and the median, we also have measures of spread based on the mean and the median.
Variance and Standard Deviation
One measure of spread based on the mean is the variance. By definition, the variance is the average squared deviation from the mean. That is, it is a measure of spread because the more distant a value is from the mean, the larger will be the square of the difference between it and the mean.
- Symbolically, the variance is defined by
Note that we average by dividing by n - 1 rather than n as you might expect. This is because there are only n - 1 independent datapoints, not n, if you know . That is, if you know n - 1 of the values and you also know , then the nth datapoint is determined.
One problem using the variance as a measure of spread is that the units for the variance won't match the units of the original data because each difference is squared. For example, if you find the variance of a set of measurements made in inches, the variance will be in square inches. To correct this, we often take the square root of the variance as our measure of spread.
The square root of the variance is known as the standard deviation. Symbolically,
As discussed earlier, it is common to leave off the indices and write:
In practice, you will rarely have to do this calculation by hand because it is one of the values returned when you use you calculator to do 1-Var Stats on a list (it's the Sx near the bottom of the first screen).
The definition of standard deviation has three useful qualities when it comes to describing the spread of a distribution:
- It is independent of the mean. Because it depends on how far datapoints are from the mean, it doesn't matter where the mean is.
- It is sensitive to the spread. The greater the spread, the larger will be the standard deviation. For two datasets with the same mean, the one with the larger standard deviation has more variability.
- It is independent of n. Because we are averaging squared distances from the mean, the standard deviation will not get larger just because we add more terms.
example: Find the standard deviation of the following 6 numbers: 3, 4, 6, 6, 7, 10.
Because it depends upon distances from the mean, it should be clear that extreme values will have a major impact on the numerical value of the standard deviation. Note also that, in practice, you will never have to do the calculation above by hand—you will rely on your calculator.

Origins of the Vietnam War (01 Edition)by Frederick Logevall
Synopses & ReviewsPlease note that used books may not include additional media (study guides, CDs, DVDs, solutions manuals, etc.) as described in the publisher comments.
Publisher Comments:
The war in Vietnam was a seminal event in post-1945 world affairs. The conflict had a profound and lasting impact on the politics and society of Vietnam and the United States, but also shaped the larger international system in critical ways. This volume provides an authoritative and accessible introduction to the origins of the war. It situates the developments from the French colonial period to the eruption of major war in 1965 in their larger global setting - how Vietnamese affairs were shaped by - and in turn shaped - developments outside Vietnam. The Origins of theVietnam War looks at:
Fredrik Logevall is Associate Professor of History, University of California, Santa Barbara.
A short introduction to the origins of the Vietnam War. The book sets the context to the conflict from the end of the Indochina War in 1954 to the eruption of full scale war in 1965. It places events in their full international background.
This new book sets in context the conflict from the end of the Indochina War in 1954 to the eruption of full-scale war in 1965, and places events against their full international background. Books in this Seminar Studies in History series bridge the gap between textbook and specialist survey and consists of a brief "Introduction" and/or "Background" to the subject, valuable in bringing the reader up-to-speed on the area being examined, followed by a substantial and authoritative section of "Analysis" focusing on the main themes and issues. There is a succinct "Assessment" of the subject, a generous selection of "Documents" and a detailed bibliography. Why did the US make a commitment to an independent South Vietnam? Could a major war have been averted? This book provides a short, accessible introduction to the origins of the Vietnam War. The war had a profound and lasting impact on the politics and society of Vietnam and the United States, and it also had a major impact on international relations. Readers interested in the history of southeast Asia, or the Vietnam War.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 137-145) and index.

The preteen years are a time when young people experiment with new things and begin to exert their independence. For these reasons, it is very important for your child to be vaccinated against hepatitis B. The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is spread through having sex with an infected person without using a condom and by sharing contaminated needles. It also is spread through accidental needle sticks or from an infected mother to her baby during birth. Even sharing a toothbrush or a razor can spread hepatitis B, which is why it is very important that children are vaccinated as young as possible.
Hepatitis B is a highly contagious, sexually transmitted disease caused by a virus that attacks the liver, possibly causing lifelong liver infection, cirrhosis (scarring) of the liver, liver cancer, and death. According to the CDC, in the United States, HBV is responsible for an estimated 3,000 deaths each year. People of any age can become infected with HBV. A person who is not immune to HBV can become infected by coming in contact with a small amount of blood or body fluids from an infected person.
The good news is that HBV can be prevented through vaccination.
These factors put a person at high risk for getting HBV:
Having unprotected sex
Having sex with more than 1 partner
Having another sexually transmitted disease
Using injected drugs
Using unsterilized needles when tattooing, ear-piercing or body-piercing
Sharing personal hygiene items, such as razors or toothbrushes
Sharing chewing gum
Touching fresh skin breaks, cuts, burns, or blood of an infected person
Living with a chronically infected person
Working in a hospital or other health care facility where it is possible to come in contact with fresh skin breaks, cuts, burns, blood, or blood-contaminated body fluids
Pregnant women with hepatitis B can infect their children during childbirth. Infected people can pass the virus to their babies if they pre-chew food for them.
Adolescents who get hepatitis B usually have no symptoms. In some cases, infection with HBV may cause some of the following symptoms:
Loss of appetite
Nausea or vomiting
Weakness or tiredness
Abdominal pain
Light-colored bowel movements
Dark urine
Yellow coloring to the skin and eyes (jaundice)
Easy bruising
In the United States, infants have been vaccinated against HBV since 1991. The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the CDC and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommend the HepB vaccine for all babies and unvaccinated children as part of routine childhood immunizations, and for adults who are at high risk. The CDC recommends a 3-dose schedule of the HepB vaccine for adequate protection.
Talk to your doctor about receiving the hepatitis B vaccine.

If it is energizing to get a new start with a new franchise:
"I think so and that is not slighting anyone at all. I think it was a great run there in Carolina. Nine years in this league is an eternity but it is kind of re-energizing to kind of go new, you got all new people, getting to know new people. I think this is an excellent franchise as far as what they have done in the past and what they have been able to accomplish. Of course, reuniting with a guy like John Elway, and of course Brian Xanders, who spent a lot of time in Atlanta and now the GM here. So from that standpoint I think you are learning different personalities and you are doing a start over so that part has been exciting." (Sports Radio Interviews)

New DLC is out. Based on the Torque company. EXPLOSIONS!
Not sure if anyone is playing it anymore... But anyways, finished the main sotryline for the new DLC.it seemed a lot shorter than the pirate dlc, but a lot more fun. Lots of great quotes from Torque, that guy is awesome. XDI've beaten one "invincible" boss, not sure if there is another somewhere or not yet. He drops seraph crystals, much like the invincible bosses from the first DLC. I on't know if this DLC has a different seraph vendor (I assume it does somewhere though, hopefully with different/better seraph items).There is new gun shop type (orange color specialising in Torque guns) littered around the new DLC that require a new form of currency (which you get from drops and from completing quests). These gun shops always seem to have an Orane Torque item in the "Item of the Day" slot, but it is only a level 48 req weapon (at least it was for my level 50 Zer0).Overall, a great (though short feeling) DLC, I'm yet to complete all the sidequests. I'll post once I've done them saying more about the DLC if anyone is interested.
I am playing but taking it really slow, I love this game so far, still need to get the season pass for the dlc, hoping it will be on the steam sale.--Judge a man by the trials of his shield, not the empty reaping of his sword.
Oh yeah, I am still playing (just downloaded the new Torgue DLC too -- season pass holder here) but I don't have the kind of time I used to have for games so I'm still working my way up the main storyline at level 23. Mechromancer, Ordered Chaos build.--"The counsel of fools is all the more dangerous the more of them there are." -Ólafr Höskuldsson
Unfortunately, my PC has decided to start giving me issues and I can't get BL2 to start at all anymore. So, I'm missing out on the new DLC. I plan on wiping the boot partition and installing Windows 7 (currently running XP). I'm hoping that will resolve my issues. Plus it will allow me to use DX10 instead of DX9.
I'm not done the Pirate DLC or the main quest yet... it's just a question of time really. I only have a couple of hours a week to devote to gaming...--Support Bacteria -- It's the Only Culture Some People Have
So I finished all the sidequests. Honestly, it was pretty disappointing.Many sidequests were just straight repeats of the main storyline, the only change was the multiple tiers of difficulty (which caps at tier 3, then stays tier 3). This tier system allows you to repeat the same 2-minute long quest forever, which is pretty annoying for a completionist who can't get his god-damned quest tab clear because of it.HOWEVER! Its not all bad news for the DLC, I found the new seraph vendor and the items are a HUGE improvement upon the previous vendor, the prime example being the Hoplite -
Has anybody been getting the Golden Key codes that Randy Pitchford and Gearbox have been posting on Twitter and such? I'm up to 18 of the things now. Have only used one so far, way back at level 10.--"The counsel of fools is all the more dangerous the more of them there are." -Ólafr Höskuldsson
I did the golden key glitch just because I used the 3 or so I had and got only one usable item. It stinks to follow his twitter, get a few keys on a weekend and get all unusable or crappy items.Then again, if you do the glitch and cherry pick the best stuff, you will be a bit overpowered on the enemies. When that happened to me, I just used the mod to make it max difficulty.--»www.freakynorm.com
Ya, I generally use the golden keys at lower levels or when weapons get a little stale.So, I just wiped out my boot drive and reinstalled my OS. Went from Windows XP to Windows 7. Noticed quite a difference. Going from DX9 to DX 11 is some serious change. Things look so much better. Particles are outstanding and the Physx is pretty nice. I'm on a low-end system by today's standards, but it runs well and looks really good.My major complaint is that I can't use wireless to connect to my router with Windows 7 and play BL2. The constant pinging of the servers conflicts somehow with the wireless data rate and I'm getting choppy/laggy/hesitating video. When I disable the wireless adapter, it's as smooth as glass. This only happens with BL2. All my other games don't exhibit this behavior. So, I'm going to have to run 100' of ethernet from my office to the router. It kinda sucks, but at least I'll be able to play online once that's done.400+ hours and still loving the game.--I love working at a pay cut.================Verizon Wireless Unlimited
I just got this game during the recent Steam sale and I'm still very early in it. My Steam id is bionicRod if anyone sees me on and wants to do some co-op one of these days, feel free to add.
if anyone wants to play, i and a friend have a level 30. my steam name is Radly
God this game runs like shit at times. I picked it up this morning from the Steam sale. Under heavy battle in game, I get a lot of stuttering and down right shitty frame rates.Other times, it runs absolutely beautiful. Reading some searches online, it seems I'm not the only one. You would think a game that's been out for 3 months now would have been optimized a little better.PhysX is what killing performance. And you cannot completely disable it.What's weird, is my GPU usage is showing barely nothing at all in game. Usually 50% or so. My core clock is set to 925mhz, and in game just now the GPU was running at no more then 768mhz.
What kinda card are you running? And how are you able to tell what your GPU usage is?--Because, f*ck Sony
What kinda card are you running? And how are you able to tell what your GPU usage is?
I am Jobaq on Steam so add me up for some co-ops!
Alright, I made some more adjustments and it seems to be running pretty awesome now.Turned Dynamic Shadows off in the Config .INI file. Turned Ambient Occlusion off, Vsync off, and set Frame Rates to Unlimited.I'm running PhysX at Medium setting. I'm getting a little tiny bit of screen tearing here and there, but not too bad. After making these adjustments, my video card is running full tilt and actually making noise now.
My daughter and I have been playing for a few days, great game. Just about to do some of the DLC, see what that all brings to the game.Running 670sli right now, sits at about 100fps with all turned up to full. Daughter has my old card, 285gtx and she plays with med settings at around 50fps.
I've noticed this game is much much tougher then the first Borderlands. Ammo is more scarce at times (you never seem to get ammo for your equipped guns) and enemy AI is better this time.So far, it's a huge improvement over the first game.
This is such an awesome game. I'm currently level 27 and playing Maya. Phaselock is beastly.There is so much great dialog in this game, that you definitely don't want to skip over.So far, the side quest where you have to start a clan war between the Hodunks and the Zafords is pure comedy.This game isn't without it's flaws though. There are still some annoying quirks here and there that will get under your skin a bit.Here are a few of mine....Backtracking through a completed map after finishing a quest and hitting repawns, is annoying.No option when purchasing ammo for "BUY ALL AMMO"?? Really?In the first Borderlands when you got a headshot with any weapon, most the time there head exploded into a million bits and stayed that way. In BL2 when you headshot someone, their head explodes, but when you run up to their corpse their head is magically back on their body. That really annoys me.There are some control issues here and there with getting stuck on certain parts of raised terrain.All and all though, any quirks or issues this game has shouldn't sway anyone from picking it up and playing through it. It's still a top notch game.

Just picked up Borderlands 2 and playing as Axton (GOTTA have my turret!) and I like the little tweaks so far. The mini map helps, and I like being able to pick up items without leaving my vehicle.Handsome Jack is a goddam prick bastard...I found out what happened to Helena Pierce. spoiler I just want to kick his ass (not kill him, that would be to easy).....repeatedly. A question: What are the season passes for? I saw one listed in my downloadable content but it doesn't seem to do anything.
1 recommendation
Season pass gets you all the DLCs.
Handsome Jack has got to be the greastest video game villan of all time. Seriously.Some of his quotes are pure gold. The guy is such a witty asshole.I've actually laughed out loud at some of the side quest commentary. The side quest in Eridium Blight with Mal the robot is funny as hell.This game gets better and better the more you play it.
Agreed, it is a lot of fun. The game is more difficult than the first version, but only in the sense that you need to experience the challenges first-hand in a few situations before you can breeze through them.I mean, the first time I opened a chest and a badass midget jumped out and filled my face with buckshot, it was unexpected and I stood my ground attempting to trade shots in the open with the wrong weapon. This is not necessarily difficult, it was simply not something I was expecting or was prepared to handle at that time. As I played through the game, there were several of these "Oh, well now I know better" moments. This carried over to the second playthrough somewhat, as new versions of enemies and their tactics were discovered; however, as I was more familiar with the game, deaths usually came about from lack of patience after long sessions.I'm trying to see if I should offload the Physx at medium setting to my CPU or keep it on my GPU.i7-3770K (3.5 GHz)GTX 57016GB RAM1920x1080From the the TechSpot testing, it seems like I would be better off with letting my CPU handle the Physx.»www.techspot.com/review/577-bord···ormance/I'm trying to match their results to my equipment.In their test, using the following equipment:i7-3960X Extreme Edition (3.30GHz)GTX 6801920x1200At max Physx settings they achieved 60 FPS using only the GPU.When offloading to the CPU, performance improved to 74 FPS.Granted, there was a big gap between this CPU and mine, but it still seems that I would be better off allowing the Physx to be run by my CPU.I guess I will give it a try and see how it goes.
Borderlands 2 for $20 @ GMG...not bad»www.greenmangaming.com/s/us/en/p···ds-2-na/Green Man Gaming has the Borderlands 2 Game (PC Download) for a low $19.20 after Code: "GMG20-P4DLK-FKYRS" (Exp Soon).

Alienware SteamBox Hands-on: PC Gaming Invades Your Living Room
If Valve and it's hardware partners are right, 2014 will be the year of the Steam Machine — a set-top box that runs Valve's game-centric SteamOS operating system. And Alienware is hoping to lead the charge. Aiming for the 65-million-member user base that currently uses the Steam game download service, Alienware has been working with Valve for over a year to create a box that will be competitive with next-gen consoles PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. After going hands-on with a prototype here at CES 2014, we'd say that Alienware is definitely on the right path.
Alienware was vague on specs, displaying just a shell of the box with tantalizing cutouts showing off potential ports and slots. However, we did learn that the company has created a proprietary motherboard designed for a smaller device. The box will also feature a new venting solution that sucks air into the box, blowing the hot air out dual exhaust vents along the back.
MORE: Most Anticipated Games of 2014
The prototype is slightly bigger than a Roku set-top box and comprised of matte and glossy black plastic. We noticed a number of intersecting lines resembling the LED strips found on the current Alienware notebooks. Company reps confirmed that the box will feature some of Alienware's trademark pizzazz.
We weren't able to test out Alienware's prototype directly. The company did give us a taste though, demoing Valve's Steam OS on an Alienware 14 while using the the company's innovative Steam controller. Once we became acquainted with the controller with its two haptic trackballs in lieu of dual analog sticks, playing "Borderlands 2" was relatively smooth. In optimal conditions, both Alienware and Valve claim that Steam OS will only exhibit single digit latency when using a wired controller.
In addition to the Steam Machine, Alienware will begin offering a Steam version of the X51, one of the company's popular desktop gaming solutions. Both units will become available globally sometime in 2014.

-5thechief73 , January 7, 2014 12:34 PM"slightly bigger than a Roku set-top box"What? Seriously, you must have never seen a Roku in person. That is easily 4x larger than a Roku. Otherwise it looks like it could be a strong competitor in the Steam Machine market just due to its compact size. Pricing and performance withstanding. But on the other hand "Dude your getting a Dell."
-3soldier44 , January 7, 2014 1:23 PMDoes anyone really buy these overpriced under powered things...
-8Zachasaurs , January 7, 2014 2:01 PMi would not reccomend these alienwares are already overpriced because dell sucks and this does not have enough air movement to not melt or destroy internal parts
2scook9 , January 7, 2014 3:23 PMIt will have as much or more air movement then a laptop and will most likely be housing laptop internals. Stop being an idiot fanboy.And Alienware stopped being overpriced in 2009 when Dell started building the laptops and not letting Alienware act like a separate division. Let me know where you can get a comparably powerful/spec'd machine for less.
-3itsnotmeitsyou , January 7, 2014 7:43 PMthat form factor is really impressive given the hardware specs. GTX titan, Tb SSD, i7quad, 16Gb. I'll get one for a desktop even.
-6universal remonster , January 7, 2014 11:12 PM"Let me know where you can get a comparably powerful/spec'd machine for less."Sure, no problem idiot fanboy, except that no specs or price was revealed.. so how about you shut up?
-5itsnotmeitsyou , January 8, 2014 12:32 AMu mad bro?
-3biohazrdfear , January 8, 2014 7:44 AMFind something that's priced better than an Alienware? Okay.ASUSMSIEurocom
-1southernshark , January 8, 2014 7:58 AMI for one like these small Alienware machines. I work internationally. The big box is dead for me. We didn't all grow up in one town and stay there FOREVER.

4thechief73 , January 9, 2014 11:13 AMWow, thankfully no one is abusing the down vote button :-/ <sarcasm> Is someone from Dell upset or just some fanboys out trollin?
-3Attacker411 , January 9, 2014 10:24 PMI'm sorry but Dell sucks. Dell makes Alienware Computers. Get the connection?

1therealduckofdeath , January 13, 2014 2:08 AMApple trolls just jump at anything Dell related with their silly hate. Always amusing to read. =D
1back_by_demand , January 13, 2014 4:24 AMYeah, if I have the money to buy one of these I will install Windows and play ALL my games

Aether II Frequently Asked Questions
When is the Aether II's next update releasing?
Our next large scale update, Mutation, currently has no set release date or estimated release window. For more info on when you'll be seeing Mutation, check out our
What version will the next update be for?
The Mutaiton beta update will most likely launch running on Minecraft 1.6.4. After its release, we will begin porting to more recent versions, such as 1.8.
What's in the next Aether II update?
Our next update, Mutation, will bring the Aether II into its beta stage. It includes a ton of new content, including new mobs, items, and biomes. You can learn more about Mutation on
our blog
Can I make my own multiplayer server using the Aether II?
Of course! The Aether II is built on Minecraft Forge, meaning it's fairly simple to set up a server running it, just follow this
simple tutorial from Minecraft Wiki
. Remember to install both the Aether II and PlayerCoreAPI to the server.
All this Forge server stuff seems tricky... do you guys have an "official server"?
Yup, just hit the "Official Aether Server" button on the Aether II main menu and you'll join instantly! Alternatively, you can add play.AetherII.com to your server list.
Can I donate to the Aether II? Are there perks for donating?
Yes and yes! Check out our
donations page
for more information.
I found a bug! Where do I report it?
Our GitHub
would be the place to go. Make sure you look through all the open and closed issue reports to make sure you're not submitting a duplicate, though.
Can I install the Aether II on a cracked client?
Good luck. The Aether II launcher requires a first-time login with your Minecraft account to validate any downloads of the mod. We've also gotten reports of several issues installing onto cracked Minecraft launchers. You won't get any support from us if you run into these issues, though.
The music in the Aether II is incredible! Can I download the soundtrack anywhere?
You can pick up the original soundtrack and the single "Ascending Dawn" on
Emile van Krieken's Bandcamp
Can I use the Aether II in my mod pack?
Yes, but we ask that you credit Gilded Games and the Aether Team when doing so. Also, be aware that the Aether II is in its alpha state is is incompatible with many mods. Fixing any incompatibilities is on you.
Can I help test the mod before updates are released?
All pre-release builds are made to be kept within the Gilded Games team and a small group of testers, we do not accept requests or applications to test pre-release builds. As for things like "snapshots", we feel these would only be necessary for large content patches, such as Mutation, and would like to keep most of the new content a surprise. If you really want to help out, feel free to submit bugs you find in the most recently released version to
our GitHub
Can I join the Gilded Games/the Aether Team? I'm a great coder/writer/artist/etc.!
We are very appreciative of how enthusiastic our community is and how involved you want to be with the project. However, we can't let everyone that asks to contribute join and the process of reviewing every applicant is very time consuming and difficult. Because of this, we have a policy of "Don't call us, we'll call you.". Once in a blue moon positions will open up and we'll begin accepting applications from the public. When and if this happens, we'll let you know on our
My launcher gets stuck when downloading, or doesn't download the Aether II at all!
You may have pre-existing files preventing Minecraft or the Aether II from downloading correctly. Backup your .aether folder (same location as the .minecraft folder), delete it, and try downloading again with a fresh copy of the launcher. If you're still having problems, there are instructions for manual installations on
our downloads and installation page
I donated but my special textures/server rank aren't unlocked!
This issue was recently patched in 184.108.40.206, but you still may not be registered as a donator. Please send a private message to
our Facebook page
with your PayPal email address and your Minecraft username and we'll get you your perks as soon as possible.
I can't connect to servers, I keep getting "ID mismatches" (something like this)!
This is most likely because you have an old Aether II configuration file. To fix this, navigate to your .minecraft or .aether folder and delete the config folder inside. Relaunching the Aether II should generate an updated and correct version of the config. If not, make sure you're running the correct version of the mod.
AOS and AetherII.com Frequently Asked Questions
When is the Aether Official Server's map going to be wiped/changed?
We will be wiped the map with the release of 188.8.131.52, the summer hotfix, and will again with the releas eof the Mutation beta update.
Why does the Aether Official Server's map have to be wiped/changed?
Several reasons, most importantly the land generation and ID changes in the upcoming update. The map and player data (which includes inventories and locations) must be wiped to ensure compatibility with the next update and that all players will be able to log in normally.
How do you become a Helper/Moderator?
Helpers are players who have actively been with the Aether II and AOS community for a good while and have applied via the
Helper Application
to be promoted to a position of more responsibility. When the need for Moderators arises, users are hand-selected from the pool of Helpers based on activity, helpfulness, and knowledge.
I've been marked as a donator on the AOS but not on the site (or vice versa)!
This is typically caused by users not having their Minecraft account linked to their profile. There is a tutorial on how to do this on the
Enjin Forums
I'm signed in but can't post on the forums!
The most common cause for this is logging in with a pre-existing Enjin account without having joined AetherII.com first. Head to
the homepage
and click the "Join Website" button under your username on the righthand side.
I can't submit staff applications/help tickets!
You will have to
create an account
before submitting most applications. If you know you're signed in to the site correctly, you may need to link your Minecraft account to your profile (see above).

NIU Valentines concert
NIU Valentines concert
DEKALBNorthern Illinois Universitys Campus Activities Board will kick off its Spring 2003 Local Music Showcase Series with a Valentines Day-themed concert at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 12, in the Diversions Lounge of the Holmes Student Center in DeKalb.
The event will highlight three of the Midwests up-and-coming artists, including Champaign-Urbanas underground darlings, the Red Hot Valentines. With plans to release an album on Illinois legendary Polyvinyl Records, plus a music video and national tour in the works, the Valentines are one of this years top groups to watch. Their first self-titled recording, released in January 2002, earned critical reviews within the music industry, garnering the attention of major labels. Hot off their merger with Polyvinyl, the bands next album, Calling Off Today, is scheduled for release Feb. 18.
Also playing will be the Amazing Kill-O-Watts, from Peoria. The Kill-O-Watts blend the fine tunes of such classic artists as Buddy Holly and the Cars with the music of new talent such as Weezer and the Aquabats. Founded in 1995 under the name HAM, their musical style is one of melodic harmonies over aggressively heavy pop riffs. Couled with lyrics that often have a sci-fi theme, the music becomes what they refer to as geek rock. Their latest album, released in July on Clumsy Records, is titled The Terror of Technology.

A movie about a 47 year old Australian woman begging to wear Japanese face paint and a kimono? I don't think many would like up to watch such a silly story.
Quote: "She alleges that she was told that the reason she could not gain tenure was because she was a foreigner."
That is a questionable allegation. She is said to have worked as a geisha only for a couple of years just to study the field, and, if true, that must the very real reason why she was refused to be granted tenure this time. It is completely out of that question that a geisha who has such a short carrier could in any way become a 'mother'.
In fact the member of the association says: "We allowed her to be a Geisha as part of her study, and we did not expect her to want to become an independent Geisha to begin with."
Quote: "… She allegedly complained loudly about not being allowed to perform in front of customers even though she was already very proficient with a musical instrument."
It that's a true story, it is an excessively arrogant attitude for a cultural study.
Jan said "It that's a true story, it is an excessively arrogant attitude for a cultural study.". Right. But not more arrogant than those tens of Japanese who go to study french cooking, and sometimes after just a few weeks manage to be taken in photographs beside a world-famous chef and go back to Japan claiming they were the assistant of this celeb. That's not only arrogant, it's somehow a crook, a very current one, in fact.
That said, Ms Graham was never a real geisha in my point of view, would never be, and that's all. Besides, she now has a much better understanding of what is "traditional way" in Japan than she had at first, the mirage has disappeared at last.
It's time that someone announced to the Japanese that they are not "special" and that they cannot continue to discriminate against foreign people simply because they believe they are "special". As a long-term resident of Japan I have heard this same mantra over and over. "Non-Japanese cannot understand the delicate sensibilities of Japanese culture" or "We Japanese are more sensitive to nature than foreigners". After careful consideration of their "delicate sensibilities" for 15 years I can assure you it is a load of hogwash used to justify keeping the foreigner in his place which is anywhere but Japan. If the same rules that they apply to us were applied to Japanese living in foreign countries you would hear the temper tantrum loud and clear.
I doubt that she is the "first" foreigner to become a geisha. Liza Dalby, back in 1983, also claims this dubious honour. She also published a book about her time: "Geisha".
@Frankly Frank
Your story about French cuisine doesn't sound persuasive but misleading. It is rather mixing up a few examples of personal behaviour with collective ethnic quality. What is the point of your always bringing up nationalism against the Japanese? Obviously, you hold a deep ethnic grudge against them. It wouldn't be completely wide of the mark if I bet you were Korean in ethnicity, although I won't guess any further.
At least Ms Graham is fully entitled to claim back home that she has been an apprentice of her 'mother' albeit for a short period of time while it is too presumptuous of her, to the traditional standard, to become a mother with such a short carrier.
Glad someone mentioned Dalby, who did all this 20 years ago with much more nuance…
This isn't about race at all. She has a very serious attitude problem. Actually, she also has various claims against her in New Zealand http://www.odt.co.nz/your-town/wanaka/141340/gym-owner-fined-64000 and you can see her attitude problem in the article – she apparently thinks she can so anything she wants and then accuse people of being against her when she doesn't get her way. Now she's playing the race card and people are actually believing her!! It's ridiculous. A Japanese person would have been kicked out a long time ago for not going to practice or for disrespecting their senpai (superiors)! Her real motives weren't art but self-promotion! That just doesn't fit with being a geisha.
anyway she was just a researcher afterall, there is actually a REAL foreign geisha in Anjo, Aichi Prefecture who entered merely for the love of art. She doesn't get attention because she doesn't shamelessly self-promote, but she is the real first western geisha since she isn't just an antropologist dressing up.
btw, the sentence in the above "She allegedly complained loudly about not being allowed to perform in front of customers even though she was already very proficient with a musical instrument." makes it seem like she really was very proficient. Please make it clear that that is merely what she said. She only started studying gei (art) when she entered her experiment. There is no way she is proficient enough to be independent. Jigata geisha (the kind that sit on the floor and play instruments while others dance) take about five years of BEING A GEISHA (not including the trainee part of their career before they are a geisha) to become independent, even in Tokyo. It shouldn't have even surprised her that her request was rejected!
I don't know why my comment was three times rejected… but as I'm tired writting it down again and again, enough said you, Jan, draw conclusions about one case you don't know much about – the Graham's one – but refuse to hear that tens of Japanese who go to France to study french cooking are used to go back to Japan wrongly claiming they were much better than just trainees… It's up to you ! But let me tell you, you don't know/understand well Japan. You're brainwashed or very naive about it… By the way Smeg was 1000% right ! I'm pleased that somebody here knows well the matter he is talking about.
after visiting her self-promotion website, I don't believe that she was kicked out because she "cannot understand the delicate sensibilities of Japanese culture".
i wasn't even tempted to buy genuine "Sayuki Goods" for JPY15,000 either!
Not that I don't sympathize with Ms. Graham's frustration over the cultural differences, but isn't she an anthropologist? Was she unaware that Japanese traditional arts don't let you skip stages just because of "special" circumstances or supposed merit? You either do your time exactly like anyone else, or you get told to take your ball and go home.
What she's done here is the equivalent of a Japanese exchange student studying a year or two of undergraduate physics, then demanding a full PhD. Unsurprising that it got her organization's dander up.
Smeg,I am happy to read at last someone who can see over this glamourization about Japan.Yes, they do think they are gods,they do think they can take other countries cultural stuff ,like the samba schools they have and they´ve never asked us,brazilian people,if we get offended or not.But their tratitionas are "sacred" no foregner can take part od do it in his country.I am tired of this arrogance…did they forget that many aspect of thieir culture was imported from China,specially this "sensibility for nature"?
" If the same rules that they apply to us were applied to Japanese living in foreign countries you would hear the temper tantrum loud and clear."
well said!But what makes the "perfect Japan myth " alive is our acceptance of their arrogancy.
I don´t understand why Graham was banned,they share the same arrogancy,the difference is japanese do it in a polite way,
Sayuki grew up in Japan and did all her secondary education here. Someone like that overseas would not be excluded as a foreigner.
Sayuki entered Asakusa as an anthropologist but asked permission to continue after the first year and was allowed to continue as a working geisha, not just as an anthropologist, and she continued for nearly 3 1/2 years. .
If you read the Japanese media you would know that her flute teacher allowed her to take lessons with a specialist teacher towards taking the exams for the flute course at Geidai. That is Japan's best music university and it is better to be attached to a Geidai teacher for the exams.
Sayuki didn't do anything without the permission of her geisha mother and the geisha office so all the media she did was approved. She also doesn't do banquets by herself so anytime she promotes anything all the geisha that come to her banquets benefit and especially the newer geisha.
Do you really think the other geisha would not have known why Sayuki wasn't attending lessons at the geisha office? Do you really think a properly trained geisha comments publicly about other geisha? Even the geisha office refused to comment about Sayuki.
If you read Japanese articles, you would know that Sayuki started playing flute when she was young and earned her way at university by playing flute.
Sayuki asked if she could become independent after four years had passed and her request was rejected because she is a foreigner.
If you look properly at this you will see that "Reports" didn't directly say anything about Sayuki. There was only one English article that did original research and it quoted one geisha who said things about Sayuki. That article got copied by Japanese sources and the Wall Street Journal copied them. That one geisha obviously doesn't represent the Association and the Association refused to comment. Maybe one geisha just got jealous?
The other day, I was researching the Geisha Lifestyle of Chiba Japan in order to be able to write a Party Scene a Story that I am writing when I happened upon a link that brought me to the story of the only White Caucasian Geisha Girl in Japan. She is an Australian Fiona Graham who now calls herself "Sayuki" the Geisha in Asakusa.
I found her information on a website that states that she had been forced to quit being a Geisha and I sent her an email through her website saying how sad I was about finding out what had happened and she replied that article is mistaken as she is still operating as a Geisha and actually now has a fairly successful Kimono Clothing Store called 'Sayuji Kimonoya' which is located in the Asakusa District of Tokyo Japan.
Her website is:
She emailed me and says:
"I am continuing as a geisha in Tokyo and working together with geisha from many different districts in Tokyo and around Japan. I was not allowed to have my own geisha house in Asakusa but it was only the few senior geisha in the geisha association that decided that and many geisha, even from Asakusa, continue to come to my banquets."
So according to Sayuki, this website's Story about her is erroneous and she asked me to post information making refuting it. So please be assured that Sayuki is still operating as a Geisha in Asakusa and quite happy in doing so.
I have been following Sayuki's progress on and off ever since her debut, and I must say one thing that I, as well as many keen fans of modern geisha in Japan, found to be most off-putting about her was the way in which she clamoured for attention. She more or less slammed the achievements of Liza Dalby (who remains well known as truly the first woman to be accepted into a geisha house) and during her first active months while her website was still being made left "photos for media" available on the homepage.
I am not against what Sayuki has achieved, but her attitude is very disheartening to me, Dalby entered the profession with the same anthropological background as Sayuki, however she never performed for pay and was clear from the start she was only there for her Ph.D research. Accepting a foreigner as a maiko in order to give her the experience is one thing, but she should never have expected to be able to operate as a independent geisha, her willingness to show how rare a spectacle her debut was should have told her how impossible the idea of her becoming one of the top ranking geisha in Japan would also be.
A very recent interview with Sayuki shows that she is also out to capitalize on the geisha motif independently now her hanamachi has let her go, which I think is in incredibly poor taste given what the community has given to her over the past 4 years.
This article was written without any original research. As you can see from her website (http://www.sayuki.net/), Sayuki is still working as an independent geisha in the Asakusa district. This article was written by an intern with no formal qualification, and yet, it is incredibly damaging to Sayuki's life, income, and the future of her geisha trainee. Do you realize that this article comes up on the first page of a google search on Sayuki? Do you realize that some clients are put off by this and choose not to book Sayuki's banquets? This article is inaccurate so please take it down
Fiona, are you calling yourself Howard now? Haven't you learnt your lesson from your unsuccessful war on your Wikipedia article? Perhaps if you spent less time frothing at the e-mouth and more time actualyl studying and practising, you could one day become a real geisha!

Denver Nuggets Center Timofey Mozgov must be a very versatile individual. It appears that Mozgov has crossed over into the fashion world as is depicted in the photo above from this month's edition of Russian Esquire. Who knew that "Timo" has a second career already waiting for him in the Russian Fashion Industry?? He looks like the long lost child of Tool Time's Al Borland with all of that flannel draping over his body. And what is with the Polo Shirt for a hat thing he has going on here? I really don't think this look is going to catch on over here in the States, but maybe Timo knows something we don't know yet.
