The stillborn revolution: Ouya fails to sell, developer seeks buyout September 2, 2014 at 4:01 pm
What happened to the big Android gaming revolution we were promised? The Ouya team raised 8.6 million dollars from its Kickstarter campaign back in 2012, and released its tiny console to consumers about a year later. Despite the incredible hype surrounding the whole endeavor, sales were extremely lackluster. Now, it seems that the development team behind the Ouya is trying its damnedest to get acquired — possibly by a Chinese company.

Microsoft offers $150 Kinect, but does anyone actually want one? August 27, 2014 at 3:31 pm
Starting on October 7th, the unbundled version of the Xbox One's Kinect sensor will go on sale for a whopping $150. That's right, one hundred and fifty American dollars for a peripheral that Microsoft has gone out of its way to distance itself from. With a price that high, who would consider buying this standalone Kinect?
Google's Twitch acquisition falls through, Amazon steps in (Updated: Confirmed) August 25, 2014 at 7:03 pm
After weeks of uncertainty and user revolt, the story surrounding Twitch just got more bizarre. Reports are coming in today claiming that Amazon will be acquiring the popular video streaming service, and that only adds to the confusion of the last month or so. This is an unexpected development, but considering other recent acquisitions, buying Twitch makes a lot of sense for Amazon.
Xbox One now offers game pre-loading, full-game demos on the way August 21, 2014 at 4:26 pm
Microsoft can't stop releasing new features for the Xbox One.

August Xbox One system update brings 3D, remote downloads August 18, 2014 at 2:58 pm
This month's Xbox One system update is rolling out today, and it adds some long-awaited features. 3D Blu-ray support, remote game downloads, and improved notifications are all being added. These frequent additions and refinements certainly aren't a panacea for the Xbox One's public perception problems, but these monthly updates go a long way in reassuring existing owners that Redmond isn't resting on its laurels.
The American Midwest: Traveling where the cloud can't follow August 18, 2014 at 10:22 am
I love visiting with my family, but it comes with one major downside: the location. You see, my dad's family all live in rural Ohio and West Virginia — where the cloud goes to die. Not only is cell coverage spotty, but residential internet access isn't much better. Speeds are generally abhorrent, and you're lucky if you can maintain a connection for an entire day in some parts of town. Against my better judgement, I decided to try to stream all of my entertainment during my most recent trip.
Sony at Gamescom: PS4's 2.0 update reimagines the concept of online multiplayer August 13, 2014 at 4:13 pm
At its Gamescom press event in Cologne this week, Sony released a flood of news regarding the PlayStation 4. Without a doubt, the biggest headline was that the PS4 has officially sold through 10 million units, but sprinkled throughout the press conference was some truly exciting info regarding the future of the platform. Specifically, the promise of streaming multiplayer games to my friends has me intrigued.

The Reluctant Wife (Entangled Indulgence)
Posted January 27, 2013
The Reluctant Wife is a sweet and relevant bargain marriage stor
The Reluctant Wife is a sweet and relevant bargain marriage story. Abby married Dante for love. Dante married Abby for a baby. With the disparity in reasons, Abby fled the marriage only to return to save her Grandmother from dying. So, the bargain is struck: her grandmother has life saving surgery and Abby and Dante have a marriage and children. When other issues make for even more misunderstandings, Abby and Dante have to fight for their love and their marriage.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
Abby and Dante are both well drawn characters though the secondary characters are a nowhere near as finely drawn. It is easy to empathize with them as they struggle through their journey.
The story is certainly never boring; there is always something getting in the way of their final happiness, though the epilogue is a lovely tribute to the final issue. All in all, this is a well-done contemporary category romance that works on every level.
Heat Rating:Mild
REVIEWED BY: Monique Neaves,My Book Addiction Reviews
Posted December 23, 2012
A sizzling toe curling and emotional romance!
At first I had mixed feelings about this novel. However, I was certain of one thing…Dante is a jerk, but a sexy jerk non-the-less. I liked the scenario that Abby and Dante find themselves in, and that neither of them are willing to admit their feelings (Abby was before she left, but Dante never could). Now, what got me was that Dante was 29 and Abby was 19 when they married. That freaked me out. Which, I also guess is why I understood why Abby left. She freaked out because Dante was ready for more…he was ready for a family. I'm not 100% sure how I feel about that yet because that is a ten year age gap and Abby was barely an adult when she married, barely even an adult when she comes back. But, I could put that aside and focus on the story. I also could somewhat understand why Dante distanced himself emotionally as well…although I think his reason was just stupid considering he's a Catholic and family man. The reason why he distanced himself (his father dying young and his mother being devastated) and being a catholic and loyal family man didn't really seem to be characteristics that would fit together, so I wasn't really feeling that part. However, the romance between them was hot…hot…HOT. There are many moments that made me smile, made my toes curl, and even made me giggle. That's right giggle. And then there were many serious moments and I found that the ending to this novel really fit it wasn't the standard fairy-tale, but a fairy-tale non-the-less. A modern day fairy-tale I guess. Bronwen Evans' novel is a easy reading sizzling romance that will pull on your heart strings.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.
Abby—dedicated to her family and an independent woman who made a name for herself.
Dante—Cocky, loyal, and determined. Love the combination.
Some things about the characters didn't really seem to fit together.
Overall (Writing style, story line, and general):
Overall the story was an easy read. I never had to re-read something and found that I could really get into the novel. I loved the feisty characters and loved the way the book ended.

City commissioner watches Miami Heat game — in China
Miami Commissioner Marc Sarnoff skipped a City Commission meeting last week to sit courtside at a Heat game.
Not just any Heat game. A Heat game in China.
Sarnoff accompanied the championship team to Beijing, where they played a preseason game against the Los Angeles Clippers Thursday. Sarnoff said he was invited because he helped broker the deal that landed the Heat in Asia.
It all started last year, when Sarnoff met with Shanghai Sports Bureau Director Li Yuyi. Yuyi had traveled to Miami in hopes of convincing the Heat to schedule a game in China, Sarnoff said. When he had no luck with team executives, he stopped by City Hall.
"It turns out, this was a very powerful person in China," Sarnoff said. "I brought him over to the Heat arena and sat him down with (business operations president) Eric Woolworth."
The Heat liked the idea of expanding the brand in Asia.
Sarnoff also had plans to meet with Chinese sports officials to discuss similar deals for other Miami sports franchises. "We're going to talk about bringing the Dolphins over there," he said.
He also will travel to Shanghai with the team for a second game later this week. Sarnoff said the Heat paid for his flight and hotel. But he does not plan to report the trip as a gift, he said, because he had official duties as a Miami commissioner while overseas. Heat media relations director Tim Donovan, who was also in China, did not return an email seeking comment.

Helistar orders three more EC145 helicopters
- Eurocopter strengthens its Colombian market presence
With these three new helicopters, the fleet of Colombia's largest helicopter company will expand to include seven EC145s. The first two additional aircraft will be delivered in 2012, followed by the third in 2013. Helistar currently has a fleet of 18 aircraft, providing services for the country's leading energy companies.

Among the broad spectrum of missions offered by the company, Helistar specializes in passenger transport for the oil and gas sector - which currently is experiencing strong growth within Colombia. This new purchase follows the finalization of a five-year services contract between Helistar and the Colombian oil company Ecopetrol.
The EC145 is at the top of its class in the medium-sized, twin-engine helicopter category, and is perfectly adapted to the needs of the oil and gas industry. This compact and modern helicopter is ideal for medium-range flights with 8 to 10 passengers. Its high safety standards, availability, comfort and rapid configuration for different missions have earned the business of many oil and gas companies opting to acquire this aircraft in various countries in the Americas, including Argentina, Mexico and Colombia.
More than 400 EC145s have been sold around the globe for a full range of operations, and is the only helicopter of its type that can seat up to eight passengers.

RE: Lucy Akers
Yes, there was either a tombstone that broke with time or if the tombstone lay flat on the ground, it might now covered with dirt. Or it may have been just a Funeral Home metal marker that is now gone. Anyway, the area of the grave is known, but I could not find any kind of marker at the site.
There are no records of who owns the burial plots of land due to a fire many years ago that destroyed the records. So locations of the graves were only identified by markers of some kind. The first comprehensive listing of the markers being done in 1967. Two other comprehensive listings were completed later, the last one is one I did in 2001. But I did not list which tombstones I could not find when I compiled the updated list.

Lucy M. Akers tombstone
I have added a picture of the area where Lucy Akers tombstone was in 1967 when Richmond Cemetery was first surveyed. However, I could not find the tombstone where the stone should have been (#709)when I went to the Richmond Cemetery on Sept 11, 2014. I'm sorry that I could not completely fulfill your request.
The caption on her tombstone was: "Lucy M. Akers, died Aug 10, 1893, wife of J T. Akers, age 26 yrs, 3 mo, 19 da."

spouse may be cheating
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 07-02-2009 - 9:48am
I think my husband may be interested in another woman, does anybody have any advice? I caught him earasing sent messages and recieveing messages, I then saw how long he was talking on the phone with her, and when I comfronted him a month ago he has been distant, angry and blaming me for checking up on him.
|Thu, 07-02-2009 - 11:50am
I am so sorry you are having to go through this. It is the worst feeling in the world when you think your SO is cheating. One thing I learned from my experience is you should always go with your gut feeling. I had a gut feeling for so long and although I never had actual proof and he always denied it, I knew something was going on. He too would get angry if I mentioned he may be cheating and always had his phone on him. He also flipped the table around on me and would insinuate I was the one cheating, but it was all his own guilt.
I really can't tell you what to do or say because i'm in no state of mind to do so yet. I am still in the beginning of finding out, but I can tell you don't let him make you second guess yourself. Mine always made me do that until I felt I was going crazy and maybe I was thinking too much into things, but after everything he put me through and finally finding out with actual proof, I realized my gut had been right the whole time. Now I have to learn to trust myself because he made me second guess myself for so long. So don't let him do that.
If you feel something is going on, then listen to those feelings. They are there for a reason. He shouldn't be angry if you are hovering. You are his wife, you have every right to hover. And if he doesn't have anything to hide or isn't do anything wrong, than he shouldn't be upset about anything. He should be reassuring you that nothing is going on.

I'm so sorry for the pain I know you are going through! I'm going through the same thing; have been for way too long. I think the reason I haven't left yet is that I want absolute proof. Anyway, I just wanted to say the advice these posts have given you is right on target! And I will emphasize that you need to not feel guilty about digging for information, finding proof, and then begin on turning him around. Try different methods; be tough, putting a stop to things now, because the longer it goes on the worse it gets. And the more he expects to get away with. Put a stop to it. Is there any way you can interest your daughter in something else instead of what she's doing? Maybe signing up for a play in the local playhouse or a different sport? I think all contact with

|In 2013, the 50th year since it was founded, Automobili Lamborghini is participating in the annual Techno Classica fair at Essen, where Lamborghini will be showing two of its supercars that have made automotive history, at pavilion 7. Introduced in 1964, the 350 GT was the first mass-produced Lamborghini, while the 1972 P 400 Miura SV was the final evolution of the legendary Miura - the first super sports car with a modern design. Both vehicles on display were taken from the extensive collection of historic cars in the Lamborghini Museum at the company's headquarters in Sant'Agata Bolognese, Italy. An expert on replacement parts for classic cars will also be at the stand to provide information on original spare parts for early Lamborghini models. The Lamborghini 350 GT Characterized by its balanced lines and developed by Franco Scaglione from prototypes of the 350 GTV, the 1964 350 GT was the first Lamborghini to be mass-produced. With its 3.5 liter, 12 cylinder engine perfected by engineer Giotto Bizzarrini and rated at 280 hp, it could reach a maximum speed of 250 km/h. The vehicle body featured aluminum components, four-wheel independent suspension and disc brakes on all four wheels. And, some models were equipped with a self-locking differential. By the end of 1966, 120 of these remarkable vehicles had been produced at Carrozzeria Touring. The final versions featured a 4 liter engine with the same power as the 3.5 liter power plant, but with greater torque. Carrozzeria Touring also produced two Spyders (350 GTS). The Lamborghini Miura P 400 SV Steady demand for the Miura S prompted Lamborghini to introduce a more advanced version called the SV (Super Veloce). This occurred during development of the subsequent, revolutionary model called the Countach LP 500, which made its worldwide debut in the spring of 1971. The Miura P 400 SV was equipped with a 4 liter, 385 HP V12 engine and attained a maximum speed of over 290 kmh. Although it lacked the signature 'eyebrows' over the headlamps, the SV stood out for its new rear suspension, wider track and more powerful engine. And unlike previous models, it was equipped with separate lubrication. The last Miura produced in January 1973 was purchased by a famous Italian industrialist. 150 of these remarkable cars were built from 1971 to 1972. Original Lamborghini Replacement Parts Preserving the models produced over the fifty-year history of Automobili Lamborghini is in the interests not only of Lamborghini itself, but also of the world's countless keen collectors of the marque. Authorized Lamborghini Workshops specialize in servicing classic Lamborghinis. A web portal that can be entered from any point in the world provides access to catalogues of every Lamborghini model and enables the desired spare part to be conveniently ordered. If a special component is not available, it can be produced right away from the original blueprints. An expert in the sector of replacement parts will be at the Lamborghini stand at Techno Classica to answer questions about obtaining original parts for classic Lamborghinis.

About the Chrysler 300C SRT-8
When Chrysler introduced the redesigned 300 series sedan in 2005, the SRT-8 was part of that group in name only. This high powered performance-tuned version is an entirely different car from the base level 300. A 300 sedan with SRT badge nearly doubles the price found at the model's entry point. The car embodies Chrysler's goal of blending performance and luxury, with just a bit more of a focus on performance.
Beyond being the subject of a widely uttered marketing catch phrase, the term "Hemi" signifies a unique engine design initially developed by Chrysler over a half century ago. The engine utilizes a hemispherical combustion chamber, which allows for larger engine valves, creating better engine breathing ability. The end result is higher RPM capability which ultimately leads to the availability of more power. The Hemi reappeared in the muscle cars of forty years ago, and a modern version powers the SRT, as well as many full size Dodge trucks.
The Hemi under the SRT-8's hood is a 6.1 liter V-8, producing 425 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. This power supply enables 4.7 second 0-60 mph acceleration and a 13.2 second quarter mile. SRT drivers pay for such thrills at the pump: the 14/19 mpg efficiency forces the gas guzzler tax. Unlike other 300s, all SRT-8s are rear wheel drive, and all use a five-speed automatic transmission.

Red Raiders' offense should give OU defense fits
Originally Published: November 20, 2008By Chris Fowler | ESPN.com
I have to love Mike Leach.I admire him despite all his quirks and eccentricities. Maybe because of them. All that stuff is fun -- from the obsession with pirates (not the kind that recently captured an oil tanker) to the long-distance relationship with The Donald. He's a true original. We don't have enough of those left in college football. Saturday's game versus Oklahoma (ABC, 8 p.m. ET) is huge. Only the Red Raiders can wrap up the Big ...

My mum brought back this beautiful red with balck polka dot stretchy fabric from the charity shop, tellign me it was fate and the fabric and i were just meant to be together, sigh. SO i went about thinking i really want something thats easy to slip on and off that is perfect for summer, time goes by…..Over the summer I interned at this wonderful burlesque costume design comany called Holloway Smith Noir (http://www.hollowaysmithnoir.com) and learnt so much! One day one of the girls came in wearing the sweetest playsuit she picked up in America, that was it! So i set about designing my style, the neckline, sleeves or sleeveless!? One problem, i'd never made shorts! So the next day at work during a fitting as i was unpicking some silk shorts for a client i was carerfully stuuding the pattern and construction and volia, all the way home on the train i went over and over in my head! Cor blimey I was so happy!! So here you have it my proud little creation….

An aside, on backronyms
From trying to parse your username, "rftbunny", I had the thought that if the "f" and "t" were swapped, it would be "rtfbunny", or "read the 'fine' bunny" (where 'fine' could be replaced by other four-letter words :).
That was an expression I first heard back in the early 90s, and might have been around earlier, "RTFM" ("M" for "manual").
Then I realized that the Rich Text Format came about several years afterwards, and I wondered, "Was the RTF file extension a backronym made to reference the expression RTFM?" I searched a bit but it was inconclusive, so I figured I'd ask others. And since it was from seeing your username, and I'm still curious as to its origin, I figured I'd post it here. Cheers!
I love you. I'm sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.

I think it's fair to say that Yelawolf helped put his Slumerican homey Rittz on the map, but once placed on said map, it's completely up to Rittz to stay there and expand his territory. Did that metaphor make any sense? If not, let's make it real simple. Showing an appetite for culinarily named songs (see his DJBooth Freestyle Smash Potatoes), Rittz is back on our pages with new leak Pie. Produced by DJ Burn One (who coincidentally just jumped In the Mix), Pie's beat is an understated blend of crying guitars, slowly winding percussion and a softly hitting bass line. On the mic Rittz continues to display his trademark blend of rapid fire rhymes and often hilarious punchlines – not many rappers would compare themselves to a special ed student. Joining the large-haired emcee is legendary Memphis rapper 8Ball, who, of course, delivers a verse full of women, money and weed. If this slice of hip-hop leaves you hungry, there will be plenty more music like Pie in store on Rittz' upcoming mixtape White Jesus, set to hit our homepage next Tuesday, March 8

A Chi-town veteran who's been on his hustle since before the turn of the millennium, Cap 1 has previously been featured as a guest on Where U Been?, a 2013 promo single by 2 Chainz. Today, he steps into the solo spotlight with Get Out Here and Werk, a mixtape inclusion that also sees him collaborating with his T.R.U. label boss. Here, a minimal Metro Boomin/DJ Spinz co-production sets the stage for bars emphasizing the importance of hard work and persistence. In addition to the lyrical stylings of Cap and Chainz, this joint boasts a guest contribution from Rich Kidz member Skooly. Caviar Dreams 2 is slated to drop in August. In the meantime, of course, fans can keep it locked for the latest singles.

Back for a third time on the same (elderly) car and got fabulous service all the way around. The staff really went above and beyond to pinpoint the real source of the problem and to locate the part (did I mention the car is aging?). We had to juggle transportation longer than I'd have liked, but I'm certain that was due far more to the two "ice" days while it was in the shop—and the inability to get parts delivered on those days—than anything else.

It is also limited to the highest per credit hour tuition and the maximum fees charged by a public institution for undergraduate training in the state where the student is enrolled (state cap). State caps for tuition and fees are at www.gibill.va.gov/GI Bill Info/CH33/Tuition and fees.htm • Students on active duty may receive the total amount of tuition and fees, not limited to the state maximum, or the amount of charges that exceed the amount paid by the military's federal tuition assistance. TUITION AND FEES • The term "tuition and fees" means the total cost for tuition and fees for a course a school charges all students whose circumstances are similar to veterans enrolled in the same course. • "Tuition and fees" does not include the cost of supplies or books that the student is required to purchase at his or her own expense. TUITION AND FEES • "Tuition" is the actual established charges for tuition that similarly circumstanced non-veterans enrolled in the program of education are required to pay. • Tuition and fees must be reported for all chapter 33 students for each enrollment period. • Tuition and fees are reported separately and not combined. TUITION AND FEES "Fees" are defined as mandatory charges (other than tuition, room, and board) that are applied by the institution of higher learning for pursuit of an approved program of education and include, but are not limited to: • Health premiums • Freshman fees • Graduation fees • Lab fees It does not include study abroad course(s) unless the course(s) is a mandatory requirement for completion of the approved program of education Note: The certifying official should maintain an itemized listing of fees in the student's file.

Children are paid benefits as if the transferor was a veteran, regardless of the transferor's active duty status. Note: If you adopt a TOE student use the student's social security number as the student's file number and identify the student as a chapter 33 student. Certify TOE students like you would any other chapter 33 student. TUITION AND FEES • Schools should certify only those fees connected with an enrollment. That's the intent of the law. An application fee is usually paid before the student can even be considered for enrollment, so VA can not pay for it. • Graduation fees may be reimbursable as long as they're paid along with the rest of the fees in the student's final enrollment period. TUITION AND FEES • Tuition and fee payments will be issued to the school on behalf of each student via Electronic Funds Transfers (EFT) • If EFT information is unavailable, payments will be sent to the school mailing address on file in VA"s Web-Enabled Approval Management System (WEAMS) • Payments will include student identification information and the semester, quarter or term the payment is covering TUITION AND FEES • The tuition and fees payment is paid directly to the school on behalf of the student when the enrollment certification is processed. • VA should always be considered as "first payer'. • VA will pay the amount the individual is entitled to under the Post-9/11 GI Bill, even if that payment comes in after other payments are received. TUITION AND FEES Report the tuition and fees amount initially charged the student after deducting any amounts paid with Federal Funds, excluding Federal Financial Air Programs (Title IV). Examples of non-title IV Federal funds include: • Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC), • Military Spouse Career Advancement Accounts (MyCAA), • Health Professionals Scholarship Program (HPSP), and • Government Employees' Training Act (GETA). TUITION AND FEES • The school should accept VA"s payment and return any additional funds received to the other sources. • Some state laws require National Guard tuition assistance to be returned to the Guard unit. • Schools should be sure to issue refunds (including, those to the student) in accordance with their state laws and published policies. • Overages of funds paid on a student"s account by VA should be refunded to the student in accordance with the institution"s established refund policies. TUITION AND FEES Tuition & fees (and Yellow Ribbon Program payments) are issued to the school on behalf of the student. If a student attends a portion of the certified enrollment period, yet does not complete training, schools should follow their established student refund policy (and also report the change in student status to VA). If a refund is due, it should be issued to the student. TUITION AND FEES If a refund of a student's out-of-pocket expenses is due, it should be issued to the student Refunds for partial attendance should not be returned to VA. The student is responsible for any overpayment of VA benefits incurred as a result of a change in enrollment.
