My solution is to tokenize the bonuses, much like we had action points, but actually make a tokens of them (+2 chip, +5 chip, etc) . They can be cashed in when they make a difference (even multiple chips on an attack), and their physical presence makese them easy to remember. Seeing the combat manuevers as "dice spent" for the fighter article seemed on a similiar tack, so I figured sharing this idea might meet responsive ears. Penalties naturally become tokens for the DM to throw.
You might be asking: why does the fact I back attacked the goblin (or at will cleric spell +2, or what have you) make it easier to hit his chieftain 2 rounds later? Just think of it as trading the dice roll between the event that was needed and the event it would have been wasted.
Opinions from the DM community?

On a very memorable Sunday, Pastor Laura Truax surprised her congregation...
KITCHENER — The frenzy of Boxing Day shopping rocketed into all-out Bieber fever at Fairview Park Mall on Sunday.
Hordes of screaming girls watched the teen sensation shop.
"There were vases being broken, and people climbing over other people and a lot of screaming," explained Taylor Inder.
Related: Bieber song leaked
The young Justin Bieber fan said it was "chaos" with "screaming, screaming and more screaming."
It all started with Bieber's visit to a jeans store in the mall some time before noon, and finished with a crush of hundreds of young girls at the front of a sunglasses store where Bieber was seen browsing for shades.
Police officers and an entourage joined the famous singer, who is believed to be home in Stratford for the holidays.
Sarah Pelletier, manager at Sunglass Hut, received a warning call from another store to be prepared to shut her doors for Bieber.
"I thought, my God it's a 16-year-old boy who's shopping — what's the big deal here?" Pelletier asked.
"I was concerned because there were hundreds of girls out there and three police officers at my glass doors, and I'm like, 'I don't think this is a good mix'."
Pelletier said she just wanted to help Bieber make his purchase quickly.
"I'm glad he supports his local economy and he said he keeps some of his money in Canada."
After the mania the store found itself a sort of mini-Mecca, with young fans making a pilgrimage to the spot where Bieber was seen in person.
"Oh my god, Justin Bieber walked on this ground," squealed 13-year-old Sydney May as she entered the store.
A number of parents, with wide-eyed teen daughters beside them, walked into the store and asked Pelletier if Bieber had indeed been there. Pelletier couldn't comment specifically on the singer's visit, and even had to ask people to leave if they weren't browsing for a purchase.
Rylee Ellis spent part of Christmas Day putting together a Bieber puzzle she received as a gift, along with a Bieber "board game and a whole bunch of pillows."
On Boxing Day she was within feet of the real-life version of her favourite singer.
Raquel Ellis, Rylee's mother, watched from safety as her daughter was outside the store with cellphone camera in hand.
"I was nervous for her safety, honestly, because the crowd gathered so quickly and she was against the glass, so I was afraid she was going to get hurt."
But Rylee was determined to get up close.
"There was just a huge crowd, but I went through the whole crowd and I got to the front and he was just trying on sunglasses and — I don't know, I'm in shock," Rylee said.
"I was crying … and I was shaking and sweating. It was something I'm never going to forget."

THE SONG IS LOVE Lyrics - Peter, Paul & Mary
First of all,
I would like to say a word or two,
I know you won't be thinking this applies to you,
But it's true, and it do.
All your life you have had to sing your song alone,
Not believing anybody could have known
But it's wrong and you know
I've found a song let me sing it with you
Let me say it now while the meaning is new
But wouldn't it be good if we could say it together!
Don't be afraid to sing me your mind
Sing about the joy that I know we can find.
Wind them around and see what they sound like together.
The song is love, the song is love,
The song is love, the song is love.
Last of all,
I would like to thank you for the word or two,
Spoken in the moments when I needed you
To see me through and they do.

Hi. I'm Katja Presnal.
I'm a Finn, who met a helicopter pilot from Texas in an Irish Pub in Germany in 1997, we've been traveling together ever since. We have three children, and they were all born in different countries! I started Skimbaco, when we lived in Colorado, and enjoyed "skiing in Colorado." Two years ago we moved from New York City area to Swedish countryside and are looking for new opportunities.
Skimbaco lifestyle isn't about me - I believe anyone can find their own way of living their dreams.
My dream: travel the world. My mission: To inspire others to live life to the fullest.

This information is provided by Khrakantasse
As I can speak several different languages, and since someone asked me to create a FAQ(which I found interesting), I'll try to compile various interesting aspects of the game here within one thread. I'll try to keep it updated with the latest information as soon as I find anything new.
Will there be some kind of item shop in the game?
Login or Register to never see this panel
Damn nice, thanks for the info in one spot. Plus rep to you.
OMG you can dye your armors in this game, I did not see that info before. Can't wait to try this game.

the korean videos are also chinese.
Update on the FAQ for Runes of Magic by Syndreamer
OPEN BETA STARTS DEC. 9TH!! (probably)
What is an NDA?
NDA stands for Non-Disclosure Agreement. It's an agreement written by the publishers during Closed Beta testing phase to ensure that participants understand that whatever is done in the beta, Stays in the beta!! So therefore, this is enabled so that people won't leak out information to media sources or general forums. Failure to abide by these rules in place results in removal of material, temporary suspension, or in worst cases, a ban from ever entering the CB again or game. Spreading Closed Beta content to media sources for profit or to cause harm to the developers and publishers of the game can cause a major lawsuit to be brought down upon you. Here's a list of things that shouldn't post in the General forums or elsewhere:
Where does the story take place?
"Taborea was once a book in which the creation of a simple world of flora and fauna was supposed to be recorded, but today it is full of myths and legends. The continents are covered by baffling and cryptic traces of time long gone. In the Age of discovery the people of Taborea are now on a quest to find out about their mystical past."
When will the game be released?
We don't have a fixed date regarding the release of the game, but what we know is that the developers want to release the game before Christmas. In regards to this, we know that the closed beta and the release will take place before Christmas. Also be aware of delays during this time.
What are the principal features of the game?
How do Frogster and Runewaker work together?
Will there be some kind of item shop in the game?
As another f2p game, some sort of item shop is necessary to provide revenues and profits for the company.
Is there a lvl cap in the game?
From what is currently understood, the supposed level cap is 50.
Is there a good lvl of customization for our character?
Yes, there are a great deal of options to customize your character to make it appear different from the others.
You can watch a video about that here (in german but watching is enough ).
Will the game support custom Ui Mods? (Thanks to circaender for the information)
It seems that like many other MMOs, the players will be able to build customized UI Mods (personal add-ons) to modify their interface in various ways. The basic user interface will also be scalable.
How do I download the client of the beta?
You can follow several links that are posted in the forums, you can also follow the link that is in the e-mail you receive when you are chosen for the beta test.
If you don't wanna go the official way downloading with the yuleech downloader, you can visit this thread, telling how to do to download and install the game in a different way.
Thanks to nanoentity for this guide.
Where can I download the game?
Please refer to this thread by Dasadorah: http://forum.runesofmagic.com/showthread.php?t=11658
How do I register for the closed/open beta of the game?
Here at this link: http://www.runesofmagic.com/en/user,register.html
When will the OB starts?
As you have maybe read in the announcements, the open beta will probably start at this date: December 9th, 2008
Will there be a wipe of the characters after the closed beta?
This has changed, a wipe of the characters is now planned. We don't know yet when it will be placed. It is supposed to take place during the closed beta to test the changes and the updates, or just before the open beta.
What about the classes of the game?
At the release the players will be able to choose between 6 different classes. You can also combine two classes together. For example: Scout / Rogue. 36 class combinations are possible.
Here are the 6 different classes you can play:
- Warrior
- Scout (ranger)
- Rogue
- Mage
- Priest
- Knight
I have seen on the classes page two places that are free, what does it mean?
It means that two new classes are going to come after the release. We don't know when. On what I have read so far, it seems that those two classes are going to be a Druid and a Tarot Dancer. No information about those two classes yet.
The game is dual-classes, what is the difference if I chose Mage/Priest or Priest/Mage?
"When players reach level 10, they will be able to select a secondary class, which increases the possible class combinations up to 36 individual character types. Within the towns of the game world Taborea, players can switch between their primary and secondary class, which gives them interesting tactical choices about how to approach their next tasks. Consequently the primary and secondary class will level independently from each other. So the dual class system of Runes of Magic functions like two characters in one.
From then on, they can level up both independently. At any time, they can decide which to play as the primary, and switch. In the launch version, both can reach level 50. And while they progress, the game will also give them master and legendary or epic classes.
Turning to skills, every character has its own set that distinguishes between general ones like crafting or attack, and class-based primary and secondary possibilities. Characters can access all their main class skills of, but only the primary ones of their secondary class. Reaching a new level grants points that can be distributed to improve attributes; furthermore, new skills can be unlocked. There are also talent points can that used to upgrade individual skills and spells at any time. Players get these by completing quests or succeeding in combat. Crafting and weapon skills like one-handed swords or bows are leveled through use and application during play."
Choose your two classes very thoroughly, you won't be able to change them again, unless you start-over!
Is there a class that is overpowered? (typical question...)
I have read something interesting about the classes of the game, based on the experience of a previous Radiant Arcana player who was telling exactly which class was better than the other. Nevertheless I think it's not something to speak of, as we want variation in classes. Make a class combo that works for you!
Who is going to be the tanking class?
The Knight is the tank of RoM.
What about the warrior then?
The warrior is going to be the melee damage dealer for the most part.
Will there be pets for some classes or for everyone?
You'll be able to have a pet (now it seems that there are no differences between the pets, one for everyone, nothing special for rangers or anything) by collecting some special cards, which tell you some specifications about a creature, and then you'll be able to take it as a pet (sounds like Pokemon). This bit of information is still unclear, however.
Will there be the possibility to own houses in the game?
You'll be able to own a house and to customize it. Your guild will also be able to own a guild house. Every player will have a house that you'll be able to personalize with decorative furniture, treasure chests, mannequins, crafting tools, housekeepers, bonus experience, and more. Every other player will be able to visit your house, and it will encourage social interactions and there will be a popularity ranking system.
The fact of owning a house won't take place in the real world of the game, and you won't be able to see the houses of the different players. You'll have to talk to a NPC to be teleported in your house, same thing to go out of it. By the way, each new player will be able to own a house from the very beginning of the game.
You can dl a video by maltaner 87 about housing.
Will there be some special abilities like jobs?
Yes, like in other MMOs, you'll be able to choose various jobs. Some include gathering professions, where you probably gather raw materials, and others include manufacturing professions, where you create items.
*Gathering --> Mining, Herbalist, Lumberjacking...
*Production --> Alchemist, Blacksmith, Armouror, Botanist, Carpenter, Fisher Cook, Tailor...
The crafting system allows the learning of all skills on the basic level. Restrictions are applied at higher skill levels.
Will there be some special collectable items?
Yes. You'll be able for example to collect a Rune atlas, a monster compendium that allows you to capture monsters that will be summonable. You'll also be able to collect titles that mark player achievements, that grant additional skills and attribute enhancements.
To be continued....[/quote]
What about the combat-system in RoM?
We'll have a unique play style for each class of the game. The gameplay will suit your class and you'll be able to deal different types of damages, from chain-able spell effects using elemental power to physical or piercing damages. You'll be able to loot bonus orbs that are randomly dropped by monsters. You'll gain some benefits, as effects during the combat.
You'll also earn some technique points that will be accumulated with each kill and level-up. You'll be able to use them to improve your character skills or spells.
What about the itemization-system?
There will be hundreds of traits combined on item drop. We'll have a nine upgrade ranks system to level-up your equipment with different leveling paths. You'll also have some runes to customize your items. Of course, there will be dozens of class-specific armors.
How are we going to move in the game?
In Runes of Magic you'll be able to move your character with the WASD keys of the keyboard. You'll also be able to move using the point and click way. Notice too that all the keys will be configurable, that means that you'll be able to move as you want and pushing the keys you want.
As update, I can confirm that the player will be able to jump.
Will there be mounts in the game?
Yes, there will. But no information is yet known on how to get one and if we'll have to pay for them or not. They'll likely be horses, but there will be some special mounts that only the bravest adventurers will be able to attain.
You can see an image of a mount here that looks like its wow-cousin.
Will there be some GMs in the game? How will they look?
Yes there will, and they will be in-game with us. But we don't know yet how they'll look. Some sources state they hold the key and meaning to life as we know it. I guess that means we all lose our minds at their stage. :)
Will RoM be another Asia-Grinder like?
Hopefully not. It seems that there are enough quests (about 600 at the release) to grind without monster-bashing sequences. For more information about the quest-system, read the PvE section.
What about the pve in RoM?
We don't know much yet about pve in RoM, but it will be for sure something like we already know in other mmo's.
Runes of Magic will feature raids and fights against boss opponents. Players will encounter mobs in instances and within the open world. Besides static dungeons, Runewaker will introduce so-called tile-based ones that change by re-generating themselves every once in a while.
We'll have diverse and unique zones, like the Wailing Mountains, Silverspring, Aslan for example. We also know some names of some dungeons as Forlor Monastery, Mystic Altar, Reliquary of Reflections or Kleeon's Temple.
What kind of questing will it be?
For the quest-system, we'll have mostly plot quests, that tell the tale of the world and the storyline. Plus, we'll have hundreds of side-quests to do.
How will the inventory work?
As in other MMOs, what you are going to loot will go to your inventory. The inventory contains 60 slots (You may be able to upgrade it later to make it contain more places). You can also find in your inventory some options to make it more readable. For example, you'll find a tip that tells your how many places left you have, a filtering option and more..
What about the loot-system in the game?
For the loots, it seems that there is an auto-loot system. When you loot a mob, it goes automatically in your bags and your inventory. (Thanks to barbariank for the info)
What about the pvp in RoM?
Basically, Runes of Magic will have a common duel system and arena combat. Within the open game world, PVP is only open for players who actively "flag" themselves for it. If somebody wants to peacefully play PVE only, they can simply un-flag themselves. As a result, the PVP system of Runes of Magic won't interfere with the game play experience of players focused on PVE. It's only an additional feature so to speak. But there will be PVP only zones and when a player enters these, he will join PVP automatically. Within the arenas, players are able to take part in tournament style battles.
The Taiwanese developer Runewaker also plans to implement faction based PVP and guild wars. In addition to that, they are developing server vs. server combat as a very special feature. When this feature is ready, the whole community of one server will be able to fight the players of another in a massive server war. All results of PVP fights attribute to the players' PVP scores, which derive from acquired wealth, title and class, and will decide his overall ranking in the game.
What about the translation of the game?
The game will first be translated from Chinese to German, as it is done by Frogster, a German company. Then they'll translate it again from German to English.
Is the trailer that we can see in-game footage?
Yes, there has been no modifications of the videos to make them look better. All you can see is in-game graphics.
Is there any other source of information about the game?
Of course! There is the official website, that is the main source of all the content of the game.
The english Wiki!
We were waiting for it and he made it! Thanks for Frode for this Wiki, feel free to read it to learn new things!

to simplify what the OP just posted this game is a near mirror image of WoW in almost every single aspect even going down to simple interface commands.

Wow don't have multiclassing and playerhouses for a start. It is influenced a lot from wow, that is clear but also from EQ2 and Guildwars.
Still, it is the only F2P game I ever tried that is worth playing.

Book Description:
SHE TAKES THE PLUNGE.Teal Williams is content with her career as a ship's master mechanic—until Zane Cutter, the "Casanova of the Caribbean," makes her an offer she can't refuse: to climb on board with him for a real-life treasure hunt. Teal must help him dredge up a shipwrecked vessel containing an abundance of gold, silver, and emeralds—and she'll claim part of the prize.HE'S BLOWN OFF COURSE.Zane needs a mechanic—not a lover—and Teal, who can also dive, is perfect for the job. So it suits him just fine that Teal is completely immune to his charms…or so he tells himself. But with a deadly enemy in their midst—one who's silently edging closer—Zane and Teal sink into troubled waters. Trapped in the middle of a perilous sea, they have no one to turn to but each other as they face down a danger that runs unfathomably deep—and a passion that runs even deeper…

Two years ago, Seth Goldman sold a significant portion of Honest Tea-the organic beverage brand he co-founded-to Coca-Cola.
As you probably know, Coca-Cola has donated millions of dollars to anti-GMO labeling campaigns to make sure genetically engineered ingredients remain hidden. Meanwhile, Goldman, a self-proclaimed activist who is still CEO of Honest Tea, claims his company is
for transparency in labeling.
The conflicting interests between Honest Tea and Coca-Cola appear to have resulted in false statements that are anything
but transparent. Could these public statements by Goldman constitute an SEC violation, considering these statements may have reassured concerned customers to continue purchasing organic products whose profits were used to fight the consumer's right to know?

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
So pleased, haven't had any trouble getting things addressed with Teachers, & once with the principal-Laura Barnett (she's the bomb). She handled the matter professionally and made sure that the substitute teacher involved wouldn't be subbing at any of the schools my children attend. The office Secretaries are WONDERFUL! Super friendly, love three staffs and have had great experience with ,3 children attending, 2 with special needs.
I have 2 children that attend 6th grade this school year @ New Providence Middle School. They love it. We are new to the neighborhood, so they didnt know any other kids going into this school. Their grades have improved and they are involved in many extracurricular activities. They have had no problems with any bullying or fighting. The teachers are great and they stay in touch with me if they have any concerns or if they have good things to say. I volunteer once in awhile for things at the school, so am able to see for myself what is happening. The only thing I would change is the dances they have right after school until 4pm. I think they should let the students come home first and then have the dance from like 5-7pm.
This is an overcrowded school! My child has had to deal with being bullied and the response to the bullying complaint did not produce any real results. My child was told to try to get along with the student that was bullying him and even placed on group projects with this student. Before the physcial bullying began Ihad spoken with a teacher about my concerns of derogatory & inappropriate racial name calling in the school and she stated that this is how teenagers play with each other. I pointed out that this was not appropriate in people of opposite nationalities and that was not the case. Also my child's teachers seem to be more concerned with being his friend than his teacher.
Okay I guess. I think my experience was so-so. I mean the teachers are great! But there are some weird students.. Though the lunch is always are funny because people make funny mixtures with there food!
Most of the teachers are great! The students are okay. I guess the only bad thing is that people will always curse at lunch and " claim " their seat.
I think NPMS is one of the best schools in the county. The teachers care about the students. The principal, Mrs. Barnett, is very supportive and cares about us. All of the bad reviews are from parents, not from students that actually attend the school. I am PROUD to say I go to New Providence Middle School.
The teachers seem to really care about the students. The have a large class number, multiple times a day, yet try to give individual attention to each student. Especially those that seem to need help.
I Think NPMS is a good school. It isn't what a school looks like that makes the school. It takes parental involvement on a daily basis. You could have the newest of everything but if you don't have the parents and staff working together then it's not going to be. This is my sons first year and I was impressed the minute I told the staff I wanted involved I was. I have a great e-mail system with the teachers. So Don't judge a book by it's cover!!!!
im in 6th grade and i have heard alot on how bad the school is but i loved it when i got there. this is how it works the first day of school all of the 6th graders will go straight to the gym and all the teachers will come up and call out the students in their homeroom but the thing is there are 3 different teams one each grade level in 6th grade there is the racers trailblazers and champions i am on the racers and i have the best of fun and the trailblazers are cool too. but anyway each team has 5 teachers so each teams teachers will call your names and you will have to walk out of the bleachers and line up. 6th grade is fun you will have alot of your friends on your team and its so much fun you will love it!!
I am in 7th grade and I love this school, it is one of the best schools in montogomery county. This school provides wonderful oppritunities, it has great after school programs. The people here care about us. The teachers will stop whatever they're doing and help us, they enforce the rules, and I've never had a promblem that they didn't help me with. They teach things over until you get it and use creative methods to help us remeber. The staff is very good, my parents have never had any promblems getting in touch with any of the staff.
I have never been to such a school where teachers are caring, the principal is very funny, and the academics are very good. There is so much good of the school, that I don't have anything to complain about. All I can say is that this school is the best in Montgomery County.
I attend NPMS & I think that it is a great school. New Providence gives great learning oppertunities. Yea, sure I had a couple of teachers that I didn't like, but all of my teachers have tried there best to make me do my best.
I am currently in the 9th grade and I attended NPMS for three years.People may say that the teachers don't care about how the student does that they're just there to 'pick up a pay check',well there just wrong.Every year that I was there,my teachers knew my personality and if I came in upset about something they would ask me if something was wrong.All those teachers are there to help someone and not just to get paid.The teachers may make mistakes and forget to sign an agenda every now and then,but they are human and do make mistakes.I hate to think that these people who are unsatisified could be the kids who got into trouble during the time they were at this school.The communication is wonderful and I wouldn't want to go to any other school no matter how high it was rated by the government.They do an excellent job!
I am going into the tenth grade and attended NPMS for three straight years. I am the 2002-2003 Mustang of the Year, meaning that I am the best of the best. I feel that it is disgraceful to the school and the surrounding communities to have a bad perception of one of our schools. Although our school board may argue about the year's budget, the office personnel may get carried away talking about things unrelated to the workplace, and you might see a dustybunny or two under a desk, I can guarantee you that it is the same in workplaces all across America. This school is not in the below average performance rating given out by the federal government; I would much rather put my trust in qualified officials that know what they are talking about, rather than believe kids that are tired of school.
I have 2 kids that went to this school. the one thing I have noticed is the office personal have the kids do all of the work while that talk to each other. The teachers really don't care about our kids. It took me paying to have my child tested else where to find out that he is ADD, but the teachers saw the signs and not once called or sent a note home telling me they see somthing going on or that my child was having bad mood swings at school during his dads deployment. The staff at the school do not commuticate with the parents at all, even when the teacher says okay I'll sign his assignment book. They never do or call, write or email the parents. They are there to collect a pay check and thats it.
I am currently an 8th grade student at New Providence Middle School and I have been here the past 3 years. I am in a military family and I have moved several times and seeing alot of other schools I feel New Prov is certainly a great one. The teachers at this school are great, they listen to everything we say. They are very much willing to go over a lesson a million of times just to make sure we get what we are learning. Sure are school might not look so great on the outside, but the people who learn and teach here make the experience worthwhile.
I think this is one of the worst schools I have ever walked into. It's dirty, old, and has a horrible atmosphere. The administration does nothing to enhance parent communication. While several of the teachers have been incredibly caring and gifted, the administration is overbearing and has a horrible attitude towards the students. I am ashamed to admit my children go to this school.
We sold our house (in Woodlawn) and moved to get our son out of this school.
The fact that many of the teachers and staff members continue to teach and work here rather than transfer to another school(and these oppurtunities are there) says a lot for the fortitude of the staff and teachers.
As a student, I really like the school. I read a comment that said that our school is really dirty and that it's plain horrible. It's not. Actually, I think it's really clean. The principal really enforces the rules, while keeping the school in good spirits. The teachers I've had have taught me more things in 2 months than my best friend in one of North Carolina's top public schools have. The safety of the school is very good, too. Although my friends and I think that some are ridiculous, like not being able to wear jackets in class, this also makes it so that nobody can conceal a gun. About anything considered a distraction to the learning enviroment or a safety hazard....is forbidden, or only allowed on special occasions. We are a lot better than 2 stars.

That was a cracking good article. I cannot for the life of me see the point of crypto currency - this is caveat emptor writ large.

MPs back call to boycott low-taxed tat from Amazon over Xmas
I have now stopped buying from Amazon. The final nail in the Amazon coffin was the Panorama broadcast on how they treated their staff which, needless to say, is not very well. Stuff 'em I thought.
What Amazon does have is a superb business model, it's fast, efficient and apparently very friendly and well run. However what it not is, is cheap; it gives the general impression of cheapness in much the same way as supermarkets do but when you start delving and cross price checking most items can be found cheaper elsewhere. Where it does win is on convenience and reliability - but what price my conscience? Amazon will no longer be on my list, which is a pain.
If and when our Beloved Leaders sort out the tax question and Amazon, along with Google, Starbucks, Vodaphone etc, I may just return as a customer. For me, it's a moral stand but to make the principle work, it's going to need a whole lot of extra effort from everyone.
TalkTalk's broadband base continues to fall as TV subs grow
I'm unfortunate enough to be a customer of this bunch of overpriced, under-performing half wits.
A few weeks ago I arrived back from the pub at the same time as a marketing email arrived from Talktalk. I called them on the 0800 number provided and for some reason which made perfect sense at the time, I signed up for their TV service.
In the harsh, cold light of a sobering October Sunday, the deal didn't seem anywhere near as attractive. You get a recorder/tuner (got two already), catchup TV and pay services for some Sky content which is pretty much what I already have. "No, this is not a good deal" I thought to myself, especially when I contemplated the additional 2 years locked in to a contract with these clowns. I decided to cancel.
I rummaged around my inbox for contact details and found the You Want To Change Your Mind number, which unsurprisingly had an 0870 prefix. Not being one to fall for such simple extortion tactics, I got the equivalent 0800 number from good old SayNoTo0870 and I'm glad I did.
I called the number and got through to the TalkTalk Indian sales office fairly quickly, once we had established an understanding he said he was putting me through to the department that deals with cancellations. Fair enough, that's good. He then explained at some length that I was to hold on to the line, they are very busy - bear in mind that this is 08:30 on a Sunday morning, just how many people are cancelling at that time? So I told him I fully understood and promised I would hang on. This transaction had taken around a minute.
The phone went quiet, no music on hold which was a blessing and no sales jabber which was even a bigger blessing. At exactly seven minutes into the call, the music on hold arrived. This lasted until the eighth minute when the call was picked up by someone in the UK. The next seven minutes where spent batting away fallacious reasons for not cancelling, I will admit that he was very good at his job as it took me all this time to get the "upgrade" cancelled. That would have been a full fifteen expensive minutes. It was after that call that I decided to bail out at the first opportunity.
To be fair to TalkTalk, the provision hasn't been too bad, customer service and fault reporting are a joke though but probably no worse than any other provider. But cheap they are not!
Digital 'activists' scramble to build Silk Road 2.0, but drug kingpins are spooked
Loads of shizz being bandied about here. The guys that run these organisations are not to be confused with Robin Hood and his Merry Men. They are evil. Many would not think twice about terminating with extreme prejudice. And as for drugs being good, that is complete bolloxs, I have lost a few friends to bad Class A's and have a few who, being long term Black Leb smokers, are now deranged and unable to hack life that well. Meantime all my alcy mates are doing just fine and none of the smoker mates have died of cancer yet, though they surely will.
I know of what I speak, been there, done it and tried it in the 60's and 70's. The stuff available these days is much, much worse.

"Have you been visiting any dodgy sites?" I ask in response to a question as to why the laptop is running like a tortoise on mogadon. "Don't do thinks like that" comes the inevitable response as I scroll down the cookies and find all manner of unpleasantness site visit wise. "when did you last update your AV?". "What's that". "Never mind" Spends next hour or so cleaning various trojans spambots and other assorted shite, a quick defrag and installation of a new AV and hand the squeaky clean box back with a reminder to be careful when surfing.
The only upside is the occasional bottle of vino and the sure and certain knowledge of all the neighbours sexual foibles. God, there's some pervs next door but one!

Extreme right wing sympathy
Had a quick look at their site, nothing too spectacular but there again, I'm not in the market at the mo. I thought it a bit odd that they are calling the shop assistants Blueshirts, this, I believe, was the name adopted by the Irish fascists in the 30's. Much the same as the Mosely's Blackshirts and Hitlers Brownshirts!

In the ditch with DAB radio
Dab? Doh
It;s a huge waste of money...
FM works wonderfully well in most of the UK, DAB doesn't. I now, thanks to Santa, have doubled my DAB radio count to 2 which is 2 too many. Reception is not good around here (Central Essex) and we often get the babbling mud effect. I have 6 perfectly good analogue receivers, at least one of which is 40 years old, if fact I am listening to Radio 4 on it right now!
And another thing - the power consumption of these thinks is unbelievable, they eat batteries and the mains powered ones do nothing for the old carbon footprint (Not that U actually give a stuff).
God only knows what Those That Know All are thinking of - I can't for the life of me think of one advantage Digital has over Analogue is this case.
On the list of strange British stuff, 13 amp plugs and BT phone sockets deserve a mention as examples of pointlessly over engineered gubbins. I think it was deliberate in case the Frenchies or the Yanks invaded - none of their technology would work ...
PS I have 5 car radios that would need changing too

Tiscali really do suck
I used to have a Tiscali business account which never performed as well as the backup BT ADSL account (same premises, same exchange) so I decided to change provider. I emailed Tiscali cancelling the service which they acknowledged and we switched providers. Next month my credit card was debited for the monthly charge - and again, and again.
Numerous emails and phone calls made bugger all difference so I got on to the credit card supplier and got them to do a charge back for all the payments since cancellation plus one more for luck. This really pissed Tiscali off, which was the intent, I then had a year of fun with debt collection agency's trying to recoup £14.95! The last (of many) phone conversations went something like this...
Them: "You owe Tiscali £14.95!
Me: "No I don't"
Them: "Our records show blahdeblah"
Me: " I am not going to pay, are you going to sue me for £14.05? I would enjoy that"
Them "No"
Me: " Then why are you wasting your time then?"
End of phone call and end of contacts.
Tiscali are nearly as bad as that other well known bunch of twats Paypal - a similar strategy saw them long gone after they tried to claim money I didn't owe them
Dell hits all the wrong keys – again
PC World
PC World? That is possibly the worst IT retailer on the planet bar none (IMHO). Over the years I have sampled the delights of DSG and consistently found them wanting.
I am astounded that they are still trading, they arn't that cheap, the staff in the main are somewhere between brain dead and incompetent and th a counre customer service is truly dreadful.
It is said that a country gets the government it deserves, likewise with technology retailers too!
BT opens wallet to send fibre to the home
Why shouldn't BT protect it's investment?
I cannot believe the sheer volume of moaning and groaning going on here. Here we have BT offering to invest billions in a new network infrastructure, of course they are going to want to protect it and rightly so, why should likes of Tiscali (what a shower they are are) get dibsies on the cheap? BT is a PLC owned by shareholders who will not thank them if they give investment away, they need to maximise their profits to allow for future investment. OK, they are big, cumbersome and sometimes unreasonable but they have some excellent R&D, good engineers (when you can extract them from the caff) and a pretty reasonable network which probvides all you whinging winnies with a fair telecoms service.
I don't suppose many here remember when BT was a monopoly and just how restrictive it was - 1200bps modems the size of a suit case - having a fight to connect a Racal 4800 to a private circuit, no discounts or offers, stroweger switch gear, screw terminals, answer phones bt BT only - God it was awful then - you lot go count your blessings and stop your moaning...
BTW I don't work for BT and never have - just used them for the last 40 years - they are like a rather smelly favourite Aunty, comfortable but strangly unpleasant at the same time
Dell offers 'Windows Vista Bonus' to frightened customers
Vista Mmmmmmm
Had Vista on a good few machines now, including 10 ordered from Dell although XP was ordered, Vista arrived plus a some Laptops too.
I am an IT professional of the pragmatic type. I like operating systems that are clean and easy to use, and above all easy to support. Vista is none of these.
It does pretty much the same job as XP, which is easy to support, Vista uses more CPU cycles and more memory to achieve the same end - so where, pray tell, are the advantages. OK, security may be better but you still need a decent AV and spyware package installed to make it safe.
No doubt I will get a severe flaming for this but Vista is bloatware at its worst, it is slower, more resource hungry, harder to use than XP (if you need to do anything half interesting) and it still has large lumps of 95 (and probably 3.0) code lurking in its kernal. Stuff it - it was only released to improve Micro$oft's flagging cash flow.
What ever happened to Digital Research, so much cleaner and greener...
Dell guilty of defrauding New York customers
Never again
I ventured twice into the murky world of Dell. The first time was pretty much a success, bought a mid range rack mounted server, arrived on time, with the right spec and works, and still is, working fine.
The second venture wasn't so good. I was after some cheap disposable PC's, real bottom end stuff plus another reack mounted server. I asked the corporate blokes from Ireland for a quote. This duly arrived, long and complicated with the kit totalling the advertised price, with a humungus delivery charge attached - like 25% of the order was delivery!
Didn't bother responding. Dell emailed a day or two later and asked why I hadn't placed the order. So I told them. They offered a requote and I thought what the hell. Some time later, the quote arrived, again big and beefy and guess what, the carriage charge was now much more reasonable but when I actually totalled the complicated list, the price was exactly the same - they had increased the price of the hardware and reduced the price of delivery. Next day bought an HP server, better spec less money and a shed load of Lenovo's (which are suprisingly good for £180 ea ex VAT!)
Never again will I request a price from Dell.
BTW I have always got the rebates from HP, never gad a problem with them

An Oxymoron Shurley?
When does a disk (or disc in ICL parlance) cease being a disk? A disk is round thing that may or may not revolve and may or may not be used to record data magnetically or optically. What a disk is not is RAM, DRAM or any other type of memory.
A new name or acronym is needed to describe this not so new and not very exciting technology - could this mean the return of the Virtual Disk as last seen in IBM 370's? The resulting acronym is pretty unfortunate though.

Alfie Moore
Sheffield-born Alfie Moore served an apprenticeship in the steelworks before joining the police in 1992, aged 24. In 2008, he began stand-up with a show at the Edinburgh Fringe, based on his years on the beat.
Contestant in 2011 ITV reality/talent series Show Me The Funny
Mobile: 07722 064424
Alfie Moore Videos
Original Review:Full-time policeman and part-time comic, Alfie Moore is more of an anecdotalist than a comedian, but his profession has provided him with more than enough raw material.
Though a relative rookie, he has a nice, relaxed style – a roomful of strangers perhaps one of the lesser intimidations he's faced – which combines with the inherent interest in the on-the-job stories to make him someone you just want to listen to.
With few actual punchlines – a run-through of some Lidl brand names notwithstanding – the standard ten-minute slot for newish acts such as Moore doesn't seem enough to hear all of his experiences and thoughts on political-correct policing.But wanting to hear more from a new comedian is no bad thing.
There's no way of escaping this conclusion: he's an arresting storyteller. Date of review: Oct 2008

Never fails to delight an audience, seen him half a dozen times and he just gets better. Warm, engaging and highly likeable, he is a pleasure to watch. I'd be in trouble a lot more if he was my local copper ;)
Max Newton - 15/12/2009
Alfie had a mixed audience of over 260 in the palm of his hand with hilarious stories and well worked gags about life in the police force. His delivery was expert and he went down brilliantly. Alfie is a great comedian, a boon in promoting an event, a pleasure to deal with and a gent. I would highly recommend Alfie

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Swedish-born forward Linus (LEE-nus) Omark will pursue his career in Europe after getting his release from the Buffalo Sabres.
Omark went unclaimed on Tuesday, a day after the Sabres placed him on unconditional waivers, the player's agent Kevin Epp said in an email to The Associated Press.
The Sabres made the decision to cut ties with Omark a little more than a week after the player declined to report to Buffalo's AHL affiliate in Rochester.
Epp wrote that Omark is traveling to Europe, though it's not yet clear where he will be playing.
Omark had two assists in 13 games with the Sabres. The 2007 fourth-round draft pick was regarded as a disappointment after Buffalo gave up a conditional sixth-round draft pick in a trade with Edmonton on Dec. 19.

County's open-container law expires
Date: November 6, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
Because of an administrative error, Sarasota County has been without an open-container law for the past two weeks.
An ordinance prohibiting public drinking in the unincorporated areas of the county was adopted in 1996. No one at the county seemed to notice it expired Oct. 22.
The county commission is expected to approve an emergency ordinance at its Nov. 10 meeting that once again makes it illegal to drink alcohol on "any public right-of-way, public street, public sidewalk, public alley or public parking lot."
The county's municipalities have their own open-container laws in effect.
