Severe frustration followed by periods of binge drinking. You are going to get called names for being new, and people are impatient.what I can expect starting out

Just drop group and pick up another one later. Don't get frustrated and don't lose heart, most people forget that you actually have to learn how to tank.also what do you do when your put in charge of a uncooropitive group without just disbanding or kicking players.

Nervous system
Benign intracranial hypertension resulting in significant loss of vision has been reported.
A 70-year-old female patient with no significant medical history suddenly developed a severe headache followed by vomiting about 15 minutes after the initial dose of doxycycline (the active ingredient contained in Oraxyl) The patient also experienced memory dysfunction; she could not remember the events of the afternoon prior to the doxycycline dose and could not retain the information after she was reminded. The incident lasted about 30 minutes and she was transported to the hospital for further evaluation. No further cause, such as intoxication or trauma, could be elicited. Once at the hospital, the patient was able to remember the events of the afternoon and could retain new information, but amnesia regarding the events of the 30 minutes following the onset of the headache persisted. The patient's laboratory results, CT scan, MRI scan, cerebrospinal fluid, and EEG showed no pathology. When the patient was discharged 2 days later, the amnesia for the 30 minutes continued. After elimination of other symptomatic causes, the amnesia was concluded to be due to the doxycycline because of the close relation of the doxycycline dose and the onset of symptoms.
Very common (10% or more): Headache (up to 26%)
Frequency not reported: Sinus headache, dizziness, drowsiness, amnesia, paresthesias of body areas exposed to sunlight, phrenic nerve paralysis after sclerotherapy

Frequency not reported: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, glossitis, dysphagia, enterocolitis, inflammatory lesions (with monilial overgrowth) in the anogenital region, esophagitis, esophageal ulcerations
Numerous cases of esophageal ulceration have been reported. In most of the cases the patients had taken their medication at bedtime, usually without enough liquid. Patients often present with severe retrosternal pain and difficulty swallowing. Ulcerations generally resolve within a week after discontinuation of the medication. One case report describes severe hiccups of 4-day duration associated with esophagitis following the first dose of doxycycline.
Esophagitis and esophageal ulcerations have been reported in patients receiving capsule and tablet formulations of tetracycline-class drugs. Most took medication immediately before going to bed.

In a double-blinded study, doxycycline was found to be more phototoxic than minocycline and demeclocycline. Paresthesias of the body areas exposed to sunlight may be early signs of sunburn reactions.
A case report of a possible photoallergic reaction describes scaly erythema and vesicles on the face and neck associated with doxycycline administration. Upon rechallenge, a flare with erythema, itching and burning occurred in the same area.
Another case report was documented in Australian troops treated with doxycycline 100 mg daily for malaria prophylaxis while on deployment in East Timor, a group of islands within the Malaysian archipelago located close to the equator. Of the 135 troops, 22 exhibited phototoxic reactions to low dosages of doxycycline that resembled severe sunburn with erythematous plaques on the sun-exposed areas. The troops used a sunscreen containing oxybenzone.
An 11-year-old boy treated with doxycycline for brucellosis was evaluated for painless brown nail discoloration. Doxycycline was initiated for brucellosis but stopped when the boy developed photosensitivity, but 15 days after the initiation of therapy brown nail discoloration developed.

D.C. Mayor weighs another bid for the Olympics
Neal Augenstein, WTOP
Neal Augenstein,
WASHINGTON - D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray will "have to weigh the benefits to the people of our city," before considering another bid to host the Olympic Games.
The District recently received a letter from the U.S. Olympic Committee seeking to gauge the District's interest and ability in hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics.
"This is one of those efforts that would go up and down the East Coast," says Gray in a WTOP interview. "We'd probably have venues in two or three hundred miles in each direction."
In the 1990s, D.C. and Baltimore pooled their resources on a bid to host the games.
Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and mayors in 33 other cities received similar letters from USOC Chief Executive Officer Scott Blackmun.
"I'm excited that Baltimore is being considered and that we've been invited to bid," Rawlings-Blake told the Baltimore Sun.
Gray says the two cities would likely team up again.
"We'll have to come together with our partners in other cities and determine whether this is of benefit to everybody," Gray says.
In the letter, Blackmun wrote that hosting the Olympics would be "an extraordinary undertaking for any city."
D.C.'s Chamber of Commerce agrees.
"This is a huge undertaking," says Max Farrow, director of communications for the Chamber. "It's not something D.C. could do alone."
Farrow says the impact on local businesses, especially hospitality, and transportation could be huge.
"We would have to carry out a very in-depth analysis of both the costs and the benefits of a 2024 Olympic bid for D.C.," says Farrow. "This could be a major boon or a boondoggle."
Greg O'Dell, president and CEO of Events D.C., the official convention and sports authority for the District, says the Olympics would provide "a great sports profile for the city."
"Sports mean terrific economic impact for the District," says O'Dell. "We'll take a long hard look at the benefits of hosting the Olympics, but we'll follow the mayor's lead."
Atlanta was the last U.S. city to host the Summer Games, in 1996. More recently, the 2002 Winter Games were held in Salt Lake City.

BALTIMORE -- The Maryland Department of Natural Resources is using a big gun to mark the 145th anniversary of the Natural Resources Police.
They're putting an "oyster cannon" on display Tuesday at the Baltimore Visitors Center.
The cannon dates to 1868. It was installed on a steam-powered patrol boat to help protect the Chesapeake Bay oyster beds from overfishing by watermen from Maryland, Virginia and other states.
The State Oyster Police Force was the forerunner of the Natural Resources Police.
The DNR acquired the cannon in 2010 and has displayed it at the Annapolis Maritime Museum.
It will be at the Baltimore Visitors Center through April.

Found September 03, 2013 on With Leather:
PLAYERS: Kate Upton, Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton, Good Charlotte, Tyra Banks, Miranda Kerr
(via Getty Image) In news that shouldn't surprise many people but will likely inspire a lot of complaining, Kate Upton will be named the Model of the Year for 2013 at the Annual Style Awards tomorrow night in New York City. The event, hosted by Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton's former best friend and the girl who married that guy from Good Charlotte, is the catalyst to New York City's famed Fashion Week, as people will travel from across the world to gawk at clothing that 99.9999% of the people in the world can't afford and would probably never wear. So the big question is… does Kate Upton deserve this incredible honor? And the short answer, of course, is yes, while the longer, more elaborate answer is absolutely. Upton became the first woman since Tyra Banks to repeat as the cover model of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue, and she also recently graced the covers of Vogue, Vanity Fair and Elle, which I'm told is known as the Triple Crown of the fashion world*. She is even building ...

The oversize backpack is excellent for carrying large items. The multi-compartment allows easy access to the things I need; ie outside my umbrella,glasses; and Kindle Reader and secured inside keys, train pass office ID card; the choices are unlimited.
I was disappointed to find that the interior of this backpack was plastic. I feel the product to would not sustain the abuse a teenage boy would subject it to. I was able to find a more durable backpack for just slightly more.

Anita combines brains with beauty and this is exactly what contributes to her unique appeal and charm. She is presently studying at university.
As well as having an enquiring mind she is also an appreciator of the arts. Anita particularly enjoys theatre and opera and has herself, a beautiful singing voice which has been described as angelic.
She likes to keep things simple and told Petter at the beginning of their shoot, "clothes are a mess!" opting instead to pose naked right away. Anita loves to eat and hates to exercise, though you'd never know it looking at her petite little body and perfectly rounded ass.
After finishing her studies, Anita plans to move to Mongolia, to expand her horizons and continue on her quest for more knowledge.
|sirstefanofb Australia
Well we can't say we don't get variety with Petter's Girls.... Today we have the 'squeaky clean' Anita... Whilst it looks like we will be getting 'down and dirty' with Ira tomorrow. Well done Petter.... catering for both ends of the spectrum.

Anita set Quite original pics set.
|sirstefanofb Australia
I must agree...in part... with comments below, but for me it is simply a case of... Too little of Anita, but too much of Anita's 'bush'... which brings me to the question, which I address specifically to those viewers who are, like myself, addicted to the hair-less woman...Should these girls 'shave' or 'pluck' for our pleasure?
|raoul United States
Botticelli Angel Anita has the same sweet look I see on the faces of Botticelli's models—I wonder if some of them are her ancestresses? This set, with it's simplicity and emphasis on Anita's long, lovely hair, reminds me sharply of old Sandro's work. Bravo, Mr. Hegre.

Named one of America's "Best Bossess" in 2005, retired Brig. Gen. Mulqueen spent 30 years in the U.S. Marine Corps before joining the Greater Chicago Food Despository in 1991 as executive director. He retired from the food bank in 2006.
A longtime airline executive, John Edwardson became CEO of computer reseller CDW Corp. in 2001. Since then, the company's revenue has more than doubled -- to $8.1 billion last year.
Arthur R. Velasquez founded Azteca Foods in 1969. In 1984, he sold it--and in 1989, he bought it back. Along the way, Mr. Velasquez learned a lot about pursuing his dreams, managing growth and giving back to his community.
As the titans of Wall Street founder, Chicago's William Blair & Co. rolls steadily along. Blair's Vice-chairman E. David Coolidge III knows the firm's secrets--he's been working there for 39 years.
Ted Phillips is the first Chicago Bears CEO from outside the Halas family. In nine years, he has overseen a host of changes to the storied franchise--and led the team back to the championship. The Bears' 2007 Super Bowl run was its first appearance there since 1986.
In an interview with Crain's, Mr. Phillips discusses the challenge of being an accountant in a football organization. He's learned how to delegate to his coach and general manager, although Mr. Phillips says he never tells head coach Lovie Smith who to play on Sunday, or GM Jerry Angelo who to draft. However, he does ask a lot of questions.
Mr. Phillips also talks about how he rides out the inevitable losing seasons. That's where continuity of leadership comes in, he says.
Christopher Gardner's story is known from the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness," but the film left off before Mr. Gardner came to Chicago, where he built his own business--and wrote the memoir that would become a Hollywood hit.
Richard Melman went into the restaurant business because he didn't know what else to do. During a brief stint as a salesman for Fuller Brush Co., Mr. Melman learned that he didn't like having doors slammed in his face. Instead of asking people for something, he thought he'd try doing something for them. That led him to open a restaurant--R. J. Grunt's in Lincoln Park--in 1971. Today he presides over Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises Inc., a dining empire of 75 restaurants in six states.
Ken Williams batted just .218 in his Major League Baseball career, but as a big-league general manager, Mr. Williams presided over one of the greatest hits in Chicago sports history: the White Sox 2005 World Series Championship. The feat marked the city's first World Series crown in 88 years, but it came relatively early in Mr. Williams' career as a manager--he moved from the field to the front office in 1991 and had only been a general manager for five years.
In the eight months since he succeeded his father as chairman of the Chicago Blackhawks and president of Wirtz Corp., Rocky Wirtz has taken giant strides toward reviving the city's once-proud hockey tradition.

Since then, Mr. Segal has built the housewares business into one of the world's most prominent retail chains.The wild success of Crate & Barrel, which had 2007 sales of $1.4 billion from 160 stores in the U.S., makes Mr. Segal one of the great Chicago entrepreneurial stories of the last half-century.

In nearly 30 years in Chicago advertising, Renetta McCann has risen to the top of the local business scene as CEO of Starcom MediaVest Group. She's also become a major player on the civic scene, leading the city YWCA's $6.5-million "Aspire. Believe. Thrive" fundraising campaign.
Bill Mason has been a part of the Lyric Opera of Chicago from its inception -- in 1954, the year the opera house opened, he sang in its children's chorus. And while he hasn't performed there as an adult, Mr. Mason has worked at the Lyric for more than 30 years. Today, he oversees one of the country's leading fine-arts institutions, with more than 32,000 subscribers. Along the way, he's learned to balance artistic ambition with business acumen --- and to get the most out of the divas in his employ.
Joe Mansueto belongs in the elite pantheon of Chicago entrepreneurs. He founded Morningstar Inc. in his Lincoln Park apartment 23 years
ago with a simple idea: give investors a simple, clear way to rate and compare the performance of mutual funds. Today, Mr. Mansueto presides over a publicly traded, global company with $315 million in annual sales and 1,500 employees.
William Brodsky is chairman and CEO of the Chicago Board Options Exchange, the world's largest market for buying and selling options. A veteran of the American Stock Exchange and the Chicago Mercantile
Exchange, Mr. Brodsky came to the CBOE in 1997. Since then, he's led the exchange through one of the most turbulent, transformative periods in its history.

These manicures have got more bang than a rocket and more sparkle than a roman candle. We particularly love the fountain of colours in @_burkatron's design and @sparkles_nails' rockets in the night sky.

Should I Do Monthly Breast Self-Exams?
Health care providers used to recommend self-exams, but new research found that they may not be that helpful. The key is to be aware of how your breasts normally look and feel. Simply looking at, touching and feeling your breasts from time to time is enough to help you notice any changes.

Hello Camera enthusiasts/experts :)
There are so many cameras out there, and lot of technology terms involved that I am not able to decide on the right camera.
I am looking for a DSLR for upto or about 700$.
I would also like to have the necessary lenses included in this price.
For e.g
NIKON D3200 Kit, AF-S VR 18-55mm II, Schwarz (VBA330K002) : 619$
NIKON D3200 Kit, AF-S VR 18-105mm, Rot (VBA331K005) : 798$
NIKON D3200 Kit, AF-S VR 18-55mm + 55-200mm, Schwarz (VBA330K003): 878$
I am based in switzerland, and so the prices are local to switzerland.
I am not any Nikon Fan. I am very much open to Canon or other models. I just gave the above examples, because the different prices with varying lens options.. all this made it even more difficult for me to make choice.
Is it good to buy a less priced camera body and more lenses?
Or is it ok to buy a high priced camera body, and then just 1 lens (to make it fit in my budget)?
Can someone help me out streamline my thought process and to arrive on a good decision?
Thank you,

When Ryonen relaxes, she has a way of getting everyone else excited. Today is no exception.
She slips so smoothly into the water as if she is entering the arms of a lover. The water holds and caresses her all over. It supports her in its embrace as though it is in love with her. As it laps round her breasts and nipples it seems to kiss her gently. Tantalisingly her nipples respond. Beauty as serene as Ryonen's deserves time to be gazed on. Soak it up.
Immerse yourself in her.

"Perfect with a masculine touch!"
By AEKFLOWER
Comments: Love how this piece turned out. It is just as pictured and described... definitely a masculine feel to it. I bought it as a 1st birthday gift for my nephew, as I wanted something that would last. I had his initials engraved across the top and MemorableGifts did a great job enlarging the font to fit the space. My nephew has a twin sister, which I bought this piece for... absolutely beautiful!

Movement 1: Allegro moderato
Movement 2: Adagio
Movement 3: Finale: Presto
Like the slow movement of No 50, the Adagio suggests a fantasia in its rhapsodic, richly ornamented style. But it is a more varied, far-reaching piece, more sonorously scored and more audacious in its harmony—as when the tonality veers dramatically towards a remote C major in the second half of the theme. A central episode in E minor develops the theme's initial dotted phrase in music by turns stark and airily whimsical. Haydn has another tonal surprise up his sleeve at the start of the finale. After the E major Adagio, the unharmonized repeated Gs lead the ear to expect E minor; and when a sustained bass note in bar two establishes the key of E flat, we experience a sense of pleasurable shock. The whole movement is the consummation of Haydn's Scarlatti-influenced toccata style, developing its irrepressible main theme with dazzling verve and chromatic sleight-of-hand: a coruscating ending to a work that, if not quite his last sonata, gloriously crowns a genre that Haydn, more than anyone, had raised from lightweight, divertimento origins to a status comparable with the exalted symphony and the string quartet.

There are over 4,100 Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) in England,
covering around 7% of the country's land area. Over half of these sites, by area,
are internationally important for their wildlife, and designated as Special Areas
of Conservation (SACs), Special Protection Areas (SPAs) or Ramsar sites. Many SSSIs
are also National Nature Reserves (NNRs) or Local Nature Reserves (LNRs).
SSSIs are the country's very best wildlife and geological sites. They include
some of our most spectacular and beautiful habitats - large wetlands teeming with
waders and waterfowl, winding chalk rivers, gorse and heather-clad heathlands,
flower-rich meadows, windswept shingle beaches and remote uplands moorland and peat bog.
It is essential to preserve our remaining natural heritage for future generations.
Wildlife and geological features are under pressure from development, pollution,
climate change and unsustainable land management. SSSIs are important as they support
plants and animals that find it more difficult to survive in the wider countryside.
Protecting and managing SSSIs is a shared responsibility, and an investment for the
benefit of future generations.
The unique and varied habitats of SSSIs have developed over hundreds of years through
management practices such as grazing and forestry, and need active management to maintain
their conservation interest. Natural England works with over 26,000 separate owners and land managers,
who work very hard to conserve these important sites. Maintaining goodwill and building upon
the enthusiasm, knowledge and interest of owners is vital to successfully manage these
nationally important sites.

Did you spec Piercing Howl for the spammable AoE slow?
Not bad, but you did not mention at all how you handle the transitions (aka the spins after you down a tendon). For me this was the most essencial part of this fight, the majority of guilds struggle to execute this part well enough and then get destroyed on the third platform wondering why they got so many bloods. Tanking positioning is the way to solve this. Also, I was expecting this to be a little bit more in-depth, since you only focus on the warrior tank and nothing else. Don't get me wrong, the info you present is correct, but the way it is presented does not really need a video to accompany it.
I think that you should focus more on explaining in detail the footage of your kill, why you moved to the location you moved, how you did it, etc. Don't forget that this guide is most likely going to be watched by players who cannot figure this out on their own (aka lower skilled ones) and that sort of player might have trouble understanding exactly what he is supposed to be doing without the actual video being explained more deeply.
As far as the presentation is concerned, your logo and name remind me a lot of L2R, I suppose you are a complete separate channel. Not really a fan of that. Your naration style, well, I understand that it might appeal to people, but in my opinion it is cooler to try to be interesting without having "shit" to be every second word you say.
Anyway, don't get me wrong, the guide was nice, but you specifically asked for any feedback, so I thought I'd tell you my thoughts on this.

Barrelroll: outside of having 70+ blobs on your ass at the end of the fight possible the hardest part - Valaras has a point there. Several intesting things for tanks to consider like "Do you use Amalgamations for soaking up 'some' blood?" "Do you want/need mirror for barrelroll and/or 9 stacks aoe or prefer using something else instead?" "Positioning?!".

In Georgia, 17 percent of adults lack basic literacy skills, meaning that they struggle to perform even the most basic of concrete and simple tasks like reading a set of instructions.
One simple thing that our community can do to improve local literacy rates is to make books accessible to area children and foster an interest in reading whenever possible.
Our schools and libraries are eager participants in this cause, encouraging children to read in class and at home. Tanner Health System, too, has joined the effort but we need your support.
The Tanner ReadER program provides age-appropriate books to every child who visits one of Tanner Health System's three regional, 24-hour emergency departments. These books will give parents an opportunity to share an escape with their child into a story, away from the trauma or illness that made their visit necessary.
Tanny the turtle, the Tanner ReadER program's new mascot, will promote reading to children and parents visiting Tanner's emergency departments and to others in our community as he travels to area schools, organizations, community events and more!
Conceived by Tanner's emergency department physicians, the Tanner ReadER program is sponsored by Carrollton Emergency Physicians and Tanner Health System.
To donate gently used books or funds to Tanner ReadER, call 770.812.GIFT.
To request an appearance by Tanny at your school, organization or event, call 770.836.9687.
Download a free Tanny the Turtle coloring sheet here.
Are you or someone you know interested in volunteering to wear the costume and "be" Tanny at health system, school or community events? Learn more about the duties and requirements on the Tanny Mascot Guidelines page.

The limitation of such literary parallels is immediately apparent at the start of the First Ballade. Remarkable when first written, the opening musical arch seems scarcely less original today. The rapid loss of confidence after such a resplendent introduction and the transformation of the subdued first and second subjects into outbursts of passionate declamation and song could never be reduced to a satisfying verbal equivalent, however subtle or distinguished. The cadences which conclude each phrase of the first subject are left unresolved and it takes a lengthy and agitated elaboration to resolve such unease in the assuaging second subject in E flat major. However, the music remains pensive and wistful, and only a further and triumphant shift into A major fully erases all doubts and questions. Blazing octaves lead to a capricious waltz-like variation, mischievously spiced and syncopated before a sudden descent returns us to both the principal subjects. These culminate in a coda introduced Il più forte possibile and marked Presto con fuoco. Ricocheting figuration leads to boiling scales and dramatic, recitative-like interjections before a plunge reinforced with grace notes and a mixture of contrary motion and unison octaves.

Germans Feel Democracy Is the Best Form of Government
People in Germany feel that democracy is the best form of government. This is equally true for native Germans, immigrants and non-German nationals living in Germany. Those are the findings of a representative survey carried out on behalf of the Bertelsmann Stiftung by the Forschungsgruppe Wahlen research institute. Respondents were more skeptical, however, when it came to how well Germany's democracy is functioning, with 45 percent of those queried – and 58 percent in the country's eastern states – expressing doubt. Immigrants and those whose families immigrated, on the one hand, and young people with limited education, on the other, say they are particularly dissatisfied in this regard.
The level of dissatisfaction rises, moreover, the longer immigrants have lived in the country. Overall, 76 percent of non-Germans who have spent one-third of their life in Germany say they are satisfied with how Germany's democracy works, while only 48 percent of those who have spent more than two-thirds of their life there agree.
Of those respondents under 34 years of age who completed their schooling at a Hauptschule (a school that generally only prepares students for a vocation or trade), approximately half (53.2 percent) say they are satisfied with the country's democratic system. Among respondents in this age group, however, who went to a school that offered them the possibility of going on to university, the figure is 71 percent. Similarly, 70 percent of young adults who attended a Hauptschule feel that democracy is the best type of government, considerably lower than the 90 percent of students qualified for university who feel this way.
"Education and social inclusion are apparently the key to accepting democracy," says Jörg Dräger, member of the Bertelsmann Stiftung Executive Board. "The numbers are alarming, and it is the responsibility of policymakers to ensure all people living in Germany have equal access to quality education and to opportunities for participating in the country's democratic system."
Giving citizens of non-EU countries the right to vote in local elections and allowing dual citizenship are two possibilities for increasing the degree to which foreign nationals living in Germany participate in the country's democratic systems. These possibilities, however, are controversial among the public. Local-level voting rights are supported by almost half (47 percent) of immigrants, for example, while only 31 percent of native Germans say they are in favor of them. Dual citizenship is more widely accepted, with a total of 38 percent saying they support it (53 percent of immigrants and 35 percent of native Germans). Among respondents under 24 years of age, however, a full 52 percent say they endorse the possibility of holding two passports.
The response was mixed when respondents were asked about integration assistance for foreigners. Overall, 22 percent are of the opinion that "too much" is being done to help non-Germans integrate, while 32 percent say that "too little" is being done. Among immigrants, 38 percent say more support is needed. Moreover, 78 percent of native Germans and 68 percent of those who immigrated or whose families immigrated say that immigrants must do more when it comes to integrating into German society.

Ed Bott
Robin Harris
Best Argument: Yes
The moderator has delivered a final verdict.
Opening Statements
A recipe for success
Ed Bott: Apple has been kicking ass in the high-end portable PC market over the last couple years. The MacBook Air has become deservedly popular for its exquisite engineering. But that's all about to change. The pieces are finally clicking together for PC OEMs to make small, light, great-looking portable PCs at commodity prices. That is historically when the Apple versus Wintel battles get interesting. In this economy price is more of an issue than ever, and economies of scale should drive the price of ultrabooks down quickly.
I predict ultrabooks will be a big hit with PC buyers who like the MacBook Air form factor but prefer Windows to OS X. The combination of genuinely interesting hardware and a mature, smoother, more reliable Windows should narrow or even erase the design gap between Apple's MacBook Air and those of the top Wintel OEMs. Historically, that's a recipe for success.
Another profitless bit of me-too-ism
Robin Harris: Apple has re-defined music players, smart phones, tablet computers and, with the MacBook Air, the notebook computer. They've also gobbled up the lion's share of the profits and will do so again in Ultrabooks.Apple dominates over-$1,000 PC revenue with a 90% share. They dominate tablets likewise. The last 2 MacBook Air models have been a huge hit. Apple's strategy is to win profits, not volume.
Now, aided by an Intel war chest estimated at $300-$500 million, the PC vendors are striking back with the same tired "cheaper, not better" strategy that lost them the profitable markets segments in high-end PCs. It's another profitless bit of me-too-ism by the 20th century anachronism known as Wintel.
Wintel will lose the Ultrabook battle.

Configurable - HP BLc3000 Enclosure(508668-B21)
US QuickSpecs » pdf
HP BLc3000 Configure-to-order Enclosure
The HP BladeSystem c3000 Platinum Enclosure brings new capabilities to HP BladeSystem. The c3000 targets three separate market segments: 1) remote sites needing between 2 and 8 server blades; 2) mid-sized companies with between 3 and 100 servers; and 3) enterprise accounts with special datacenter requirements, such as DC power, or very limited rack power and cooling capacity. Similar to the c7000, the Intelligent Management through the Onboard Administrator gives you complete control of your bladed infrastructure. A multi-terabit backplane ensures that the c3000 Enclosure can support today's Gigabit networks with an easy migration to tomorrow's 10 Gigabit solutions.
The HP BladeSystem c3000 Platinum Enclosure goes beyond just servers. It integrates server, storage (NAS or iSCSI), networking, power/cooling, and management into a single solution that can be deployed anywhere.
Pre-wired and pre-configured, the c3000 Platinum Enclosure can easily implement a new server blade, simply as just plugging it in.
Costs less than equivalent rack-mounted servers (at 3 servers or more)

The Products You Need To Buy This Weekend Picked By Bloggers And Our Beauty Team 27/07/2012
GALLERY >> Velvotan Face Mitt
"I just LOVE [a href="http://www.feelunique.com/p/Velvotan-The-Self-Tan-Applicator-Mitt" target="_blank">Velvotan Face Mitt[/a], it's such a clever idea yet so simple. The traditional tanning mitt has been shrunk for super precise application for your face so that every area can be covered correctly. Applying your fake tan with a mitt is essential for a streak free flawless finish so I don't know why a miniature version hasn't been launched before."
Lauren from Grazia's beauty team
(Compiled by Kate Lloyd)
Topshop Secret Admirer Lipstick
"Secret Admirer is a lovely soft pink lipstick with muted nude tones and a beautiful, smooth consistency. Not too matte and not overly glossy, it leaves the lips with a subtle sheen."
Milly from [a target="_blank" href="http://www.pearlsandpoodles.com/2012/07/topshop-lipstick-secret-admirer.html">Pearls and Poodles[/a]
Philip B Oud Royal Perfect Finishing Shaping Fibre
"To get a bit of volume in my hair this week I've reached for Philip B Oud Royal Perfect Finishing Shaping Fibre. I just rub a dollup in between my hands, into the roots of damp hair, followed by blowdrying my hair upside down for extra volume at the roots. It doesn't make my hair feel greasy or sticky and leaves my hair smelling incredible for days whilst adding that extra oomph I need! "
Amelia from [a href="http://liana-beauty.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Liana Beauty[/a]
MeMeMe Seventh Heaven Enriched Facebase
"One of my favourite primers, [a href="http://www.mememecosmetics.co.uk/seventh-heaven-moisturising-facebase" target="_blank">MeMeMe Seventh Heaven Enriched Facebase[/a] moisturises and preps the skin to give a smooth and lasting finish to your foundation, and it smells divinely of grapefruit. Make-up holds up all day too, a must in any make-up lover's kit."
Sheenie from [a href="http://www.just-nice-things.co.uk/" target="_blank">Just Nice Things[/a]
Benefit CORALista
"One of my favourite blushers is [a href="http://www.narscosmetics.co.uk/color/cheeks/blush/blush/orgasm" target="_blank">NARS Orgasm[/a] and I'm constantly on the lookout for a blusher that can challenge it and when [a href="http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/product/view/coralista" target="_blank">CORALista[/a] landed on my desk this week my search seems like it might finally be over. Just the right parts of shimmering coral and pink, it highlights as well as perking up skin in a way no other blusher can. Guaranteed comment curator. "
Lauren from Grazia's beauty team
Dr Lipp's Nipple Cream
"Whoever discovered that [a href="http://www.drlipp.com/" target="_blank">Dr Lipp's original nipple cream[/a] was also a perfect hydrating treatment for lips was both a little strange and an absolute genius. Dr Lipp's original balm is 100% natural and made from the oils and waxes sheep naturally produce to protect their fleece. They're scientifically known to be the most similar to our own human skin oils and for centuries have helped to protect and soften our skin - so the science is telling me it's ok to use this on my pout!"
Hayley from[a href="http://www.londonbeautyqueen.com/" target="_blank"> London Beauty Queen[/a]
Timotei Pure Dry Shampoo
"Remember those iconic waterfall Timotei ads? Well you'll be pleased to know that[a href="http://timotei.com/index.html" target="_blank"> Timotei [/a]is back and it's had a make over. Apart from their no nasties policy and new, modern packaging (don't worry though the white and green colours remain) Timotei has been brought into the modern day with the addition of their Pure Dry Shampoo. Not only is it light and effective, it smells clean and fresh like you've just been in that Nordic waterfall!"
Lauren from Grazia's beauty team
Apivita Sun Cream
"Since the sun has finally come out I've needed a great suncream, and I've been loving the amazing smell and the surprising tanning ability from this beautifully packaged SPF30 from Greek brand [a href="http://www.apivita.com/" target="_blank">Apivita[/a]."
Rachel from [a href="http://www.rachelphipps.com/" target="_blank">Rachel Phipps[/a]
Nars Sheer Lipstick in Cruising
"This week I am absolutely loving [a href="http://www.narscosmetics.co.uk/color/lips/lipstick/sheer-lipstick/cruising" target="_blank">Nars Sheer Lipstick in Cruising[/a]. It's perfect, it's the perfect shade, nude but not concealer lips, pink, but still beige enough to not just be a pink lipstick. I'm living in this shade right now and can't see that ending any time soon!"
Charlie from [a href="http://www.ladyofthelane.com/" target="_blank">Lady of the Lane[/a]
Chantecaille Just Skin
"With the weather (finally) warming up I've been opting for a light coverage tinted moisturiser. The [a href="http://www.chantecaille.com/product_makeup_detail.cfm?cat=4&pid=120" target="_blank">Chantecaille Just Skin[/a] leaves a natural dewy-finish, and gives the perfect amount of beachy glow to my face without having to wade through the over-crowded sands."
Anna from [a href="http://www.viviannadoesmakeup.com/" target="_blank">Vivianna Does Makeup[/a]
Stila stay all day foundation, concealer & brush kit
"If you could choose one make up product for your make up bag, it would be this. The [a href="http://www.stilacosmetics.com/" target="_blank">Stila[/a] Stay All Day kit covers all bases (giddit) and comes with a miniature foundation brush for perfect application. What more do you want form a product?-genius!"
Lauren from Grazia's beauty team
Herbal Essences 'Tousle Me Softly'
"My product pick of the week is [a href="http://herbalessences.com/en-UK/collection-page.aspx?id=4244" target="_blank">Herbal Essences 'Tousle Me Softly'[/a]. It's the perfect product to put in your hair after curling it. It creates bounce to you hair, without leaving it sticky (like a lot of hair products) and really softens your look too. It also smells amazing."
Sherin from [a href="http://www.thehifashionsite.com/" target="_blank">Hi Fashion[/a]
Moroccan oil
"As much as I hate to jump on the beauty bandwagon, on this occasion I am well and truly on board. It may be a touch pricey (ranging from around £12.85 for 25ml to £30.45 for 100ml) but [a href="http://moroccanoil.com/" target="_blank">Moroccan Oil[/a] is really worth it. Take the tiniest amount, spread it over the palms of your hand and fingers and massage it through damp locks for a seriously sleek mane. And it smells amazing."
Jill from [a href="http://poutoutproud.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Pout Out Proud[/a]
Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua
"This week I'm loving the [a href="http://www.chanel.com/en_SG/fragrance-beauty/Makeup-Foundations-VITALUMI%C3%88RE-AQUA-118356" target="_blank">Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua [/a]foundation! The texture is incredible, it's so light it feels like you're wearing no foundation at all, but it still makes your skin look surprisingly flawless. I would describe the coverage as light to medium. I've been wearing this foundation non stop as it protects my skin with its SPF 15, whilst keeping my face feeling fresh and looking great."

AMI's data explosion will require back-office changes for CIS/billing.
Smart Grid: Wholesale Market Realities
Granular customer data will revolutionize megawatt markets.
due to loss of native load, increased generation availability, and expansion of demand-side programs. However, it will remain one of the premier avenues to increase earnings and cash flow for utilities and power providers.
Today, utilities and power providers approach the wholesale power business as a bridge between generation and retail, much like the link between supply and demand. The deployment of smart technologies will blur these lines. Accordingly, the distinction between wholesale and retail markets slowly will disappear. Utilities and power providers won't be able to conduct their operations in a siloed manner. As demand-side assets—EE, conservation, and DR—gain scale and expand, the need to simultaneously coordinate the dispatch of electric supply and demand resources will require greater and greater visibility and real-time coordination across the electricity value chain. A new operating model and business processes that will provide for better coordination of supply and demand will emerge. This new model will help companies crunch data that is generated by smart technologies, ascertain patterns in increasingly unpredictable customer energy-consumption behavior, and coordinate appropriate responses. These capabilities or skills will distinguish the winners from the rest of the pack. It's unavoidable that over the next decade, large central-plant generation facilities will remain a dominant part of the electric-supply equation, but demand-side assets will become a greater part of the whole equation. Regardless of whether these assets are fossil-fuel, nuclear, wind-powered, EE or DR resources, the winners in a smart technologies world always will be able to optimize the entire wholesale portfolio, having a mixture of energy management and energy sales. To achieve such vision, high-performing companies will embark on a three-phase journey:
• Phase I, Build the Foundation : Change operating model and organizational structure, and implement new processes to allow the incorporation of smart technologies;
• Phase II, Grow Integrated Wholesale Portfolio : Build integrated wholesale products and services portfolio enabling deployment of supply-and-demand assets, including energy efficiency and DR resources;
• Phase III, Expand Business to Fulfill Vision : Optimize the entire wholesale portfolio, using a mixture of energy management and kilowatt-hour sales
Although this won't happen in the next five years, smart technologies eventually will create markets comprised of one customer. Utilities and power providers will no longer segment their customer base into just a few categories. They instead will view their constituents as a large portfolio of individuals and will have access to the information necessary to tailor products and services to each of these individual customers or groups of customers. This is the future that utilities and power providers must begin preparing for today.

4 months ago i decided on getting a fairly secondhand Pc(recycled by ex-prisoners,reinsertion program)) and installing internet at home,also certain international events made me realize that to be informed one must search other than "mainstream"media...my girlfriend has a little netbook which nearly died of blue death screen.Without mentioning the big spy scam/NSA...!!!
Richard Stallman's speachs made me open my eyes wide,and also Benjamin Bayart of the FDN France & his famous conference= Internet libre ou Minitel 2.0....
..some Gnu_Linux distros are really a nice ""propriatary'" trap.!
Blag not only works great,graphical ''ambiance'',but when i installedthe Epiphany web Browser in Blag140000k it had some very interesting bookmarks which made me discover.that there was more to it..a real political message and a great respect to one's freedom.
Frankly its the" Libre "distribution out there..in the gnu_linux galaxy.
I tried gNewSense & Trisquel but i didn't feel it as much as Blag,and thats matter of personal choice..it's a gut distro,I really hope sincerly that this project keeps on existing,i'd say its vital....

Great words, blag deserves the effort to mantain it, not for an object, for the comunity.

Blag is a distro that has always been ... different ... from the rest.
Mind you, different in a good way!
Not just a distro (a certain mix of kernel and applications), but more than that.
I really hope to see it will rise again :)

Famous in France and a ""must"for beginners to grasp
the necessity of a non-centralized web..

I agree. I am actually using a proprietary distribution right now (other than firmware, nothing non-free installed). However I downloaded the .rpm for the anarchism fortunes. I think they are great!
It's also from BLAG that I learned about the Anarchist FAQ.

You could always give at try at Liberating Fedora 19/20 like most of us actually run
and some have installed Blag's- Veganix- icons too make it resemble Blag.
the IRC is fairly active,depending;(although actually i have a lot of work and my hours do not permit to be there..i just manage to switch my pc on an hour a week.. )

I may try that sometime soon, although I cannot change distributions right now because of school stuff. I went to IRC sometimes ago, and the room had quite a few people in it, I said "hi" but there were crickets. But I find that is the typical IRC experience... :P
