Hungry for humbler Pi? Check out kid-friendly LED-laden Pibrella
Re: Decent pass through connectors aren't cheap!
Great, but what I really want is a female-to-female version that'll drop onto the Pi's GPIO pins and give be Arduino-style connectors instead. Dunno if I'm using the wrong search terms, but I'm darned if I can find one of these.
Micro Men: The story of the syntax era
Thank you, El Reg
I love this show but knew almost nothing about its production. Thanks for actually going out and talking to people and finding out. I shall watch this again tonight.
PS. Sinclair on his electric invalid carriage being overtaken by HP, Dell, Microsoft et al at the end is a scene of pure genius.
PPS. Only criticism for me is the knowing lines in the script, eg.

Boffin dreams up smart battery gizmo for Raspberry Pi fiddlers

The other end of the telescope: Intel's Galileo developer board
Re: Review or plug for intel?
What would you like? 'We hooked it up to some LEDs and sensors and it worked.'? I'm sure they did that. 'We hooked it up to something really esoteric 99.9% of you will never use'? I'm sure they didn't do that, an there probably would not be much point if they did.
Sinclair's 1984 big shot at business: The QL is 30 years old

In this sense the QL really was ahead of its time.

BBC's 3D blunder BLASTED OUR BRAINS – Doctor Who fans
Re: "Tax" - really?
iPlayer is free and doesn't require a tax payment if you promise not to watch live streams.
I only pay the licence fee because I have to. If it goes, I'll buy Doctor Who on disc - I do anyway. I've given up on Radio 4 and will only go back if they promise to consult a dictionary and learn what the word 'comedy' actually means.
Little devil: Electric Imp is an Internet of Things Wi-Fi PC-ON-AN-SD-CARD
Re: A solution looking for a problem
Based on the size of Powerline Ethernet adaptors, I'm not sure it would be a good alternative to something like this for IoT applications.
FWIW, Imp seems a good idea spoiled by the proprietary IDE and web server tech - if Electric Imp dies, all that kit will be useless. Still, it's nice having someone to manage the server security for you, so I'd give it a whirl rather than be truly DIY.

Dropbox doesn't sync on iOS, it just lists what you have stored in the cloud and provides access to it. So it only pulls down files when you need them. Download speeds aside, it's a good way to get files onto an iDevice. But you're right 32GB should be the baseline.

Knocking China with shocking phones and mocking tones
Re: Mostly true
It's irrelevant whether they're paid less (or more) than a Western living wage. What matters is whether their standard of living, however much they are paid, matches ours (which is pretty good, all told). Chinese folks' desire for consumer goods and their ability to satisfy that desire implies many are not badly off at all, even on wages we consider tiny.
Mind you, that's urban China. It's a very different matter out in China's sticks, of course.

Re: It takes a scammer to see another scammer
I dunno. I like old computers - I love El Reg's line in retro tech - and I have nearly bought various old Speccys, Beebs and such... and then realised I'd have a quick play and never touch them again. If it's games you want, you can do that in emulation, and are really going to sit there and hack out code in Basic? Especially with no internet and all the modern stuff we all take for granted? I think I'd rather code on a Pi, and actually be able to do interesting and possibly useful things.

Merida Carrots Conventional & Organic
240 days. This exciting selection fills a harvest slot all its own. We spent years looking for an overwinter carrot that could be planted in late September/early October and harvested May through June. Merida is a moderately vigorous Nantes type that possesses extraordinarily good resistance to bolting, and produces sweet, bright orange carrots 1-1 1/2 inches in diameter. Well suited to spring and summer plantings too! Seed is from Holland.

Daucus carota var. sativus Studies on the nutritional properties of carrots have revealed that they are powerhouses of a wide range of phytonutrient antioxidants. With the vast spectrum of colors and varieties available, the amounts of individual antioxidants vary, yet the overall balance of these potent nutrients contributes to outstanding health benefits regardless of the variety.
CULTURE: The key to good carrot production is soil preparation. When the soil is somewhat dry, spade or till it to a fine texture 12-16 inches deep. Avoid the temptation to work the soil when it's too wet. Cloddy ground will not make smooth straight roots. Work in lots of composted organic matter, as this will help your soil maintain a very loose condition for uniform root development. Avoid fresh manure or excess nitrogen fertilizer. They can cause forks, splits, and rough hairy roots. Optimum pH range for carrots is 5.5-7.0. Direct sow March through July. Consider making your last sowing an overwintering variety. Sow the seeds thinly in rows 12-16 inches apart. Cover the seed with vermiculite or sifted compost. This prevents crusting and helps retain moisture. Mix 1/4 teaspoon of seed in a gallon of sand or vermiculite to uniformly sow 30-50 row feet. Maintain an even soil moisture level at all times. Thin carefully to get the most uniformly sized roots. When the plants have 7-10 leaves, hill 1-2 inches of soil around the crowns to prevent green shoulders.
INSECTS: Carrot fly maggots can be controlled by covering the rows with insect barrier fabric at planting.
DISEASE: Carrots are subject to various blights; practicing a 3-year crop rotation and proper sanination can prevent most problems.
HARVEST: Carrots are best harvested any time their color is bright. This is when their flavor and texture are optimum. Irrigate well prior to harvest to ensure the roots have absorbed their maximum capacity of water. Store at 34°F and 95% relative humidity.
SEED SPECS: Minimum germination standard: 75%. Usual seed life: 3 years.

Gun Control Rally
Dozens of people gathered today in Waterford to rally support for more gun control.
A group called Oganizing For Action hosted the event. They are trying to promote a better understanding of how to keep guns safe. Demonstrators also called for lawmakers to vote for universal background checks and a ban on assault weapons.
The group, which is non-partisan, is also trying to encourage more people to get involved in the debate over gun control. Members of a pro-gun group called Michigan Open Carry were also on hand. They say "reasonable" debate is what's needed to settle the issue.

TANNER '88
USA, 1988 (MIFF 1993, Spotlight Tanner '88)
Director: Robert Altman
In what may be the best work of two illustrious careers, the ever-innovative Robert Altman joined forces with Doonesbury creator Garry Trudeau, to create a presidential candidate, Jack Tanner, and then ran him alongside the other hopefuls in the 1988 US election campaign! A playful mockumentary made for the US cable network Home Box Office and never before seen in Australia, Tanner '88 is Altman at his peak, 6 hours of riveting political satire that turns the documentary form inside out - shot on video to resemble nightly TV news reporting.
Altman and Trudeau revel in their smallscreen but large-canvas format, exploring potent issues of political image-making, the co-option of the media and the peculiar operations of the US party machinery all observed with lacerating wit and deadly insight.

Published: 18 April 2013
Abstract: Systems biology is a scientific approach that integrates many scientific disciplines to develop a comprehensive understanding of biological phenomena, thus allowing the prediction and accurate simulation of complex biological behaviors. It may be presumptuous to write about toxin regulation at the level of systems biology, but the last decade of research is leading us closer than ever to this approach. Past research has delineated multiple levels of regulation in the pathways leading to the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, including mycotoxins. At the top of this hierarchy, the global or master transcriptional regulators perceive various environmental cues such as climatic conditions, the availability of nutrients, and the developmental stages of the organism. Information accumulated from various inputs is integrated through a complex web of signalling networks to generate the eventual outcome. This review will focus on adapting techniques such as chemical and other genetic tools available in the model system Saccharomyces cerevisiae, to disentangle the various biological networks involved in the biosynthesis of mycotoxins in the Fusarium spp.
1. Biological Networks in the Context of Mycotoxin Biosynthesis
Through analyses of many fungal genomes confirmed by genetic experiments, we now understand that the genes required for the biosynthesis of the majority of secondary metabolites occur in clusters [1,2,3,4]. Additionally, the activity of regulatory genes within these clusters is closely associated with biological networks involved in many aspects of normal cellular function [1,2]. For example, in Fusarium spp. the biosynthesis of mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON) and T2 toxin is linked to the signal transduction network associated with oxidative stress and to cellular networks responsive to pH, nitrogen and carbon sources, and to other environmental signals such as light [5,6,7,8,9,10]. Although genetic experiments confirm the role of these diverse networks in mycotoxin production, they do not parse the components specific to the mycotoxin pathway. Since changes in pH or the addition of H2O2 will have broad repercussions on cellular functions not limited to mycotoxin production, it is imperative that we initially identify components in each of these networks that specifically regulate the mycotoxin pathway(s).
2. Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a Model System to Identify Components in Networks in Fusarium
Our current understanding of cellular networks has emerged from studies of the budding yeast S. cerevisiae [11]. The collection of deletion strains for all the known genes in yeast enables one to screen for mutants defective against a variety of environmental insults, including growth conditions and fungicide treatments [12]. Given that ~85% of all yeast genes can be functionally compensated by other genes, action of a second site mutation that either suppresses or enhances the original mutant phenotype has greatly advanced our knowledge of relationships between genes and pathways [11]. This methodology implemented on a larger scale, commonly referred to as synthetic genetic array (SGA) analysis has enabled the mapping of synthetic lethal genetic interactions in yeast [12]. The resulting genetic interaction profiles revealed a functional map of the cell in which genes of similar biological processes are clustered together. Importantly, genes that could not be annotated previously through single gene mutations are now able to be associated with a specific biological process.
To complement the synthetic lethal screen where a combination of two mutants leads to cell death, SGA analysis can also be adapted to explore gain-of-function phenotypes. In this scenario, the overexpression of a protein may not affect fitness in a wild-type cell, but in a mutant strain, which lacks the interacting protein, fitness may be compromised [11].This technique termed synthetic dosage lethal (SDL) screens is being used to dissect biological process such as enzyme-substrate relationships identified by the synthetic lethal screens. More than 5000 genes were overexpressed in the yeast background with the mutation in the cyclin-dependent kinase gene, PHO85 [13]. Analysis revealed more than 60 synthetic dosage interactions and identified four new substrates. Additionally, the screen linked two distinct cellular signalling mechanisms, like calcium and cell cycle signalling to this kinase pathway [13]. Deployment of SDL screens have proved fruitful to dissect specific biological processes related to DNA replication, chromosome segregation and proteolytic pathways [14,15,16].
Comparative analysis between S. cerevisiae and F. graminearum genomes revealed that ~4,000 genes in yeast have homologues in F. graminearum (e-values ≤ 1E-5) [17]. This represents ~66% of the yeast genome and incorporates biological and signalling networks associated with environmental stresses and normal cellular functions. Such significant conservation between these two organisms also allows us to use the large number of genetic and computational tools developed in the yeast system. This is best exemplified by the study involving transcription factors in F. graminearum in which transcription factors in F.graminearum were categorized by various phenotypes through large-scale deletion analyses, including those unable to produce the mycotoxin DON. With the use of a yeast protein-protein interaction database, the authors were able to construct a protein interaction map of Fusarium transcription factors [18]. To demonstrate the power of yeast genetic tools, we entered the yeast orthologues of Fusarium transcription factors involved in DON production into GeneMANIA, a functional association data analysis tool that links proteins to biological pathways (http://www.genemania.org). The output of this analysis as shown in Figure 1 demonstrates the utility and power of this tool. The dark shaded circles represent yeast orthologues of Fusarium transcription factors identified by Son et al. [18].
The light shaded circles in the periphery represent proteins with new genetic (green lines) and direct interactions (red) with the transcription factors. These new interacting proteins are associated with distinct cellular functions. Examples include GCN5 and TRA1 which are histone acetyl transferases involved in RNA polymerase II-dependent transcriptional regulation of ~10% of yeast genes VTI, which is associated with the SNARE complex involved in vacuolar sorting and ITC1, which is part of a chromatin remodelling complex required for repression of early meiotic genes [19,20,21]. Mutational analysis of these new interacting partners in F. graminearum can confirm the link between these genes and DON biosynthesis. Thus, a genetic screen in F. graminearum linking transcription factors to DON biosynthesis can be integrated into the overall cellular network.
Recently, a large scale mutational analysis of kinases in F. graminearum revealed links between several kinases and DON biosynthesis [22].Since orthologues of some of the kinases are present in yeast, a synthetic dosage lethal screen could identify substrates of these kinases. These could be introgressed into the network (Figure 1) to generate new biological networks associated with the DON pathways.
3. Chemogenomics to Decipher Mycotoxin Pathway in Fusarium
Complementary to SGA analysis, the use of small molecule inhibitors has recently emerged as a useful tool to study biological processes. Advantages of a chemical over a genetic screen are apparent. First, advances in the synthesis and commercial availability of combinatorial libraries of diverse skeletal structures along with high throughput screening has led to the identification of many molecules targeting specific pathways or networks [23,24,25]. Second, small molecules could interact with proteins or components of a signalling pathway in a reversible manner; this is especially important if essential genes are studied. Moreover, orthologous and paralogous protein functions could be differentially targeted, thus enabling a comparison between species. Lastly, precise temporal control can be exercised. For example, it is known that various developmental stages related to nutrition or environmental cues affect secondary metabolite production in many fungi [26,27]. Large scale mutant screens in F. graminearum have identified many genes overlapping many of these functions, underscoring the redundancies of genetic pathways (up to 85% of the genes are considered to be non-essential for yeast viability) [18,22]. The use of small molecules in a chemical screen can target specific components in the nutrition and developmental networks and thus disentangle the various functional requirements for secondary metabolite production.
In one of the early applications of this technique, twelve inhibitory compounds including fungicides such as benomyl and fluconazole were used in a yeast chemical-genetics screen [28]. The screen identified 62 deletion strains that were sensitive to at least four of the compounds. Several of these mutants were subjected to a synthetic lethal screen. The overlap between the chemical screen and the synthetic lethal screen datasets not only provided corroborative evidence, but also implicated uncharacterized genes in specific roles [28]. A similar strategy could be employed to delineate pathways responsible for DON biosynthesis in F. graminearum. Since this fungus is amenable to growth in liquid culture and adaptable to high-throughput screens, a chemical library could be used at various developmental stages and different nutritional and environmental regimens, suited to induce DON production [29]. Once the compounds that mitigate or promote DON production have been identified, yeast homozygous deletion arrays can be used to identify signaling pathways. Moreover, heterozygous yeast deletion mutants grown competitively with the chemical compounds can be used to identify specific targets [12]. Thus, the use of chemicals to probe genetic interactions, combined with yeast SGA analysis can enable us to decipher specific pathways or networks used for DON synthesis.
4. Proteomics to Identify Components of a Cellular Network
The aforementioned genetic tools in yeast such as SGA analysis have proven very useful to ascertain genetic interactions in organisms that are intractable or where resources are not yet available. A chemical genetics screen, on the other hand, can be used directly in many cell-based systems, including F. graminearum to obtain discrete functional information on those chemicals that modulate pathways responsible for DON biosynthesis. Moreover, the screen complemented with the yeast SGA analysis can yield valuable information with regards to targets of the chemical compounds [12]. Studies show that targets from chemogenetic screens can be categorized into discrete modules or local networks with specific cellular functions, such as metabolism and transcription regulation [30,31]. Evidence also suggests that components in these local networks also interact physically [11]. It follows then that studies with protein-protein interaction (PPI) data will improve our understanding of both functional modules and how they connect with each other in a global cellular network.
Although large scale experimental PPI studies, similar to the yeast two-hybrid system have not been done with Fusarium proteins, a PPI database for F. graminearum has been curated based on an interaction-ortholog (interolog) approach [32,33]. The INPARANOID software was used to identify Fusarium protein orthologues from seven species and was used to predict more than 200,000 interactions with ~7,000 Fusarium proteins (http://csb.shu.edu.cn/fppi) [33,34]. As mentioned previously, physical interaction between proteins is observed only if they share biochemical functions. Therefore, it is unreasonable to expect functional modules responsible for DON production in this database, because such modules have evolved uniquely in Fusarium spp. This was confirmed by a query in this database with Tri6 and Tri10, the two regulatory proteins central to DON biosynthesis in F. graminearum, which did not identify any interacting proteins. Hence, it is imperative that proteins involved in DON synthesis are identified and functional modules unique to DON biosynthesis are created. In this section, we will outline some of the methods that are being used to identify proteins that are likely involved in the DON biosynthesis pathway.
In F. graminearum, a host-free system has been established to induce DON, therefore allowing various proteomics tools to be used to identify proteins associated with DON production [29]. All of the enzymes involved in DON biosynthesis have been identified, along with some of the proteins which regulate the production of this mycotoxin; however, the regulatory events, including post-translational modifications (PTMs), remain largely unexplored. Since the language of cell-signalling is embedded in PTMs, a proteomic approach with mass spectrometry-based identification of modified peptides is the method of choice [35]. Strategies for high-throughput phosphoproteome analyses are well documented [36]. Amoutzias and colleagues recently summarized and analyzed 12 publicly available S. cerevisiae datasets comprising over 2,000 phosphoproteins and almost 10,000 phosphorylation sites [37]. Protein-protein interactions of the yeast phosphoproteome are now also beginning to be described [38,39]. A high-throughput phosphoproteome F. graminearum during DON induction has recently been described, but this has not been incorporated into the larger PPI dataset [33,40].
Other PTMs, such as redox modifications of proteins are less studied, but tools to study them are becoming widely available. Proteins with exposed cysteine residues, which monitor the cell's redox status through reversible oxidation/reduction, have been shown to affect cellular processes such as sexual structure development in Aspergillus spp. [41]. In F. graminearum, exogenous application of H2O2 induces DON production, suggesting that redox regulation is likely involved in this process [5]. One approacht has been to analyze the redox proteome through the covalent labelling of cysteine with the fluorescent label monobromobimane, which attaches to free cysteines on proteins [42]. After the separation of proteins by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, fluorescence ratios can be calculated to determine the incorporation of the label under different experimental conditions, i.e., between oxidized and reduced states of the protein. This is followed by mass spectrometry to identify peptides with the modified cysteine. Through the use of these PTM tools and mutational studies, a comprehensive database can be compiled of proteins involved in DON biosynthesis.
5. Concluding Remarks
It is evident that the early foundations for systems biology studies in F. graminearum are in place. Before the promise of systems biology studies of mycotoxin regulation can be fully realized, however, strategies to integrate the multiple available databases have to be developed. Nonetheless, we can take comfort in the fact that many of these challenges have already been overcome in other model organisms and it is now up to the Fusarium community to embrace the systems approach.

hi. i really like this theme, but i want to modify the style of the frontpage portfolio thumbnail grid a bit:
there should be a red overlay div with 0.5 opacity on / over the thumbnail images that fades out on mouseover. (instead of the greyscale effect.)
– like it was done here (just the other way round): http://sarwiya.com/work/?
e. g. i tried to edit loop-portfolio.php like this:
and in custom.css i played around with some lines like this to try if it works:
but nothing happens… and if i change the width / height 100% to 100px the red square is above and not over / on the thumbnails.
any ideas how i can solve this? maybe i edited the wrong include-files…
thanks in advance!
The topic 'how to put overlay div over portfolio thumbnail images ?' is closed to new replies.

Top Syrian envoy urges revolt
Ambassador to Iraq has defected

Nawaf al-Fares, Syria's ambassador to Iraq defected in protest at the military crackdown by President Bashar al-Assad's forces against a 16-month revolt, Syrian opposition sources said on July 12, 2012. REUTERS/Khaled al-Hariri/Files (SYRIA - Tags: POLITICS HEADSHOT)
Beirut: Syria's ambassador to Iraq has defected and urged the army to "turn your guns on the criminals" of President Bashar Al Assad's government, giving the anti-Assad uprising one of its biggest boosts in 16 months of bloodshed.
Nawaf Al Fares, who has close ties to the Syrian security services, was the first senior diplomat to desert Al Assad, following hard on the heels of Manaf Tlas, a brigadier general in the elite Republican Guard and a close friend of Al Assad.
Al Assad's swift and bloody crackdown on what began as a broad, peaceful pro-democracy movement helped turn it into an armed rebellion. But the insurgents cannot match the army's firepower, and instead need to erode the loyalty and conviction within Assad's establishment to loosen its hold on power.
Tlas, the son of a veteran former Syrian defence minister, has made no public comment since fleeing to Paris. But Fares posted a video statement on Facebook on Wednesday that repeatedly said government forces had been killing civilians.
"I declare that I have joined, from this moment, the ranks of the revolution of the Syrian people," he said.
"I ask ... the members of the military to join the revolution and to defend the country and the citizens. Turn your guns on the criminals from this regime ...
"Every Syrian man has to join the revolution to remove this nightmare and this gang," he said, accusing the Al Assad family and its allies of corruption and "destroying society" for 40 years.
The defection was seized on by Assad's opponents, but also by Western and Sunni Arab powers who insist, like the opposition, that Al Assad must leave power in any political settlement for Syria.
In Damascus, a terse government statement said: "The Syrian foreign ministry declares that Nawaf Al Fares has been relieved of his duties and he no longer has any link to our embassy in Baghdad or the foreign ministry. They embassy in Iraq will continue carrying out its normal duties." "This is just the beginning of a series of defections on the diplomatic level. We are in touch with several ambassadors," said Mohammad Sermini, a member of the main opposition umbrella group, the Syrian National Council.
Al Assad's opponents say just under 13,000 armed and unarmed opponents of Assad, and around 4,300 members of security forces loyal to Damascus, have been killed since he launched a crackdown 16 months ago, using tanks and helicopter gunships to attack rebel strongholds inside Syria's biggest cities.
With events on the ground outrunning diplomatic efforts, Britain on Wednesday circulated a draft resolution, backed by the United States, France and Germany, to make compliance with a transition plan drafted by international envoy Kofi Annan enforceable under Chapter 7 of the UN Charter.
This would allow the council to authorise actions ranging from diplomatic and economic sanctions to military intervention.
Annan himself asked the 15-member council to agree on "clear consequences" if the Syrian government or opposition failed to comply with his plan, which has produced neither a ceasefire nor political dialogue since it was agreed in April.
The draft in particular threatens the Syrian government with sanctions if it does not stop using heavy weapons and withdraw its troops from towns and cities within 10 days.
But Al Assad's chief backer on the UN Security Council, Russia, remained firmly in the Syrian leader's camp, having submitted its own draft resolution on Tuesday that made no mention of sanctions.

text: Greetings Good Gentles, At Steppes Warlord this year we shall hold the first of what I hope will be many gatherings of a Library at events. Please bring your books to share for the weekend, and 2 copies of your book list when you check in at the library. All subjects are welcome. What obscure titles do you own? I have one on Anglo-Saxon Grammar. Children's Books are very welcome, and they will have their own separate area. The books will be securely checked in and out to their owners, and never leave the guarded area. I have never had any trouble with things disappearing from the library, as we are all on our honor in the SCA, but someone will be on duty at all times. Volunteers?? I will bring a lot of my books and invite everyone to bring historical, craft, and source books from your fields of interest. Having run such a Library numerous times for the Royal University in Meridies, I say to those who would object to sharing by declaring "I paid too much for my books" come see my Book of Kells, purchased in Ireland at Tara. The populace has always generously joined in and gathered many shelves of books, and enjoyed viewing the complete collection of National Geographic Historical maps, and articles on SCA topics gleaned from Tournaments Illuminated, class notes, and other sources. Come, cool off, study, and relax at the Steppes Warlord Library. Thank you HL Ciar nic Ruadhan O'Seachnasaigh founding Dean of Academic Research, and Librarian, Royal University of Meridies A&S Minister, Barony of the Steppes

Raid Compassion:
For this encounter you will need:
Tanks [3]
Healers [6-7]
These are the spells your raid will need to deal with.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...erload-bar.gif Overload - Once any of the guardians reach full energy it will blow up and deal 500,000 damage if its not the active guard
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...olid-Stone.gif Solid Stone - If the guardians is alone he will not gain energy for overload.
All 4 Guardians will be active on 25man
One of these mechanics will be in effect depending on which Guardian is active.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...per-Chains.gif Jasper Chain - This will link 2 random raid members (not including tanks) and inflect 35,000 damage from targets 10 yards apart and will break after 15 sec.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...hyst-Pools.gif Amethyst Pools - Will drop purple pools on the ground that will cause aoe damage of 70,00 damage per sec for anyone standing on them.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...ade-Shards.gif Jade Shards - Aoe damage inflecting 85,700 damage to everyone in the raid.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...lbalt-Mine.gif Colbolt Mine - Targets a random raid member, and will blow up after 3 sec and cause 340,000 aoe damage with in 7 yards of it
In this encounter you will have to deal with multiple bosses, when ever the stone guardians are together they will start gaining energy. Once they are full they will cast Overload. This is why you want to have three tanks. Each tank will hold 1 unative mob, once their mod is the active one u waill want to taunt the lowest engery mod off the tank that is holding 2 mobs.
You will start off by having One tank pick up the 2 on the right and then the other tanks to hold one each. Who ever has the active mob will then taunt one of the inactive off the person holding 2, unless the tank that holding 2 has the active guard, if this is the case we have our 2nd tank taunt the active guard when it reaches 50 energy.
Light Blue dot = 1st Tank, Yellow Dot = 2nd Tank, Green Dot = 3rd Tank, Blue dot = Melee, Orange Dot = Healers/Range DPS We found this was the best way to do the encounter, is to have the tanks staying split and stay in a triangle pattern. moving clockwise.
Once the Tank is holding the two guardians, they will both start to gaining energy, once both of the guardian reaches 50 we have the 2nd tank taunt the active guardian. This will keep the active guard with higher energy then the unactive one. Ideally this means that the active guard should have about 50 energy and the unactive should have O to 10. Each time that we have a new active guardian we have the tank taunt the previous guard that has just blown up.
Rinse and Repeat!
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...per-Chains.gif Jasper Chains - When Jasper guard is active, we have the people who are linked to range and melee split and try to break their chain, but if melee/melee are linked or healer/range/range are linked ignore the chain and just have healers keep them topped off.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...hyst-Pools.gif Amethyst Pools - Don't stand in them, this is why we have the tanks kite clockwise.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...ade-Shards.gif Jade Shards - Just heal and use raid cool downs as needed.
http://files1.guildlaunch.net/guild/...lbalt-Mine.gif Cobolt Mine - When cobolt is active, We have the tank that is holding a single guard to pop the mines, other then that avoid running into them.
Rinse and Repeat Then Win!
I will be doing a video guide of this encounter soon!

Re: Only Wild Bear in Swtizerland Shot
hard to believe it's the only wild bear left there. While the population and development there in the mountains is much more compared to US standards, there are still large swaths of timber and remote basins. It's still a bummer it was shot

Save the date
Entwined Frame Save the Date Cards I was really thrilled with my save the dates. My template allowed for 4 pictures to be shared and they all turned out great. Card quality was better than I expected it to be. Only negative is that I wanted a purple outline and it turned out more pick than I would have liked...not a huge deal but just thought I'd share.
Tattooed for Life Save the Date Cards I ordered this save the date without the pictures and chose our wedding colors best as I could get them, I was a little worried because I had to trust the colors on the computer and I think it's very hard to do that online, but when I received them the other day in the mail I was so happy the color was exact. I love this design it fit our personalities, we are of the tattooed community and we have a great sense of humor so these are perfect for us and I think they are great for anyone. I highly recommend these save the dates. No one will be disappointed.
Nice but small
Photo Tradition Save the Date Cards I really like the design of these cards and the picture quality is great! They were however a lot smaller than I expected. They look more like an over-sized bookmark than a picture card. I probably should have payed closer attention to the sizing, but the editing and photos on the website were also a little misleading in terms of size. Overall, the delivery was fast and the quality is great. I will be ordering my invitations from here too...I will make sure to look at the sizes and order a free sample first.
so cute!
Made for Each Other Save the Date Cards we loved this design! It allowed us to show a few photos on a small space which was great.

text: Breitbart Sports Interview: Duke Associate Coach on Coach K, Rodney Hood, Upcoming Season Print article Send a Tip by Kevin Scholla 30 Oct 2013 post a comment Death, taxes, and Duke contending for a title. Ever since Mike Krzyzewski took over the basketball program in Durham, the Cameron fans have truly had a lot to go crazy over. This season the expectations are high once again. "Our goal is to be in the hunt for the national title each year," said Steve Wojciechowski, Duke's associate head coach. "It's a very difficult thing. It's very elusive. Coach K has done it more than any modern coach. He's done it four times and he's been coaching for over 30 years, so it speaks to the difficulty of it. Certainly our goal at the start of every season is to prepare our team to be there at the end and to have a chance to win a national championship." Wojciechowski was Duke's point guard from 1994-1998. He quickly became a fan favorite thanks to his hard-nosed play and suffocating defense. Now, he brings that same intensity to coaching. One thing Wojciechowski is particularly fired up about nowadays is the addition of Rodney Hood to the active roster. Hood, a redshirt sophomore transfer from Mississippi State, can start playing for the Blue Devils after sitting out last season due to NCAA transfer rules. "I think Rodney will be one of the best players in the United States," Wojciechowski told Breitbart Sports. "He's a co-captain on our team, which speaks to his leadership. I think he's one of the most versatile players, potentially that we've ever had at Duke." Wojciechowski points to Hood's willingness to do whatever it takes as a major attribute. "He's a guy that can't be defined by one position," he said. "He's multi-faceted. He's skilled in a variety of different ways. He's been a tremendous asset, attitude-wise, to our program, and we're very lucky to have him." Krzyzewski rarely ever brings in transfers. That alone speaks to the program's confidence in Hood. Duke will be battling a loaded ACC filled with old foes like North Carolina and new headaches like Syracuse. No matter the opponent though, the Blue Devils expect to be up for the challenge whether it's a conference opponent or not. They're not worried about what other teams are doing, unless they are playing them. "Our primary focus, at this point, has been on our team and developing our team," Wojciechowski said. "Our philosophy is that if we take care of our own business and then prepare for each and every team that we have to play, we'll be in good shape. We don't pay a ton of attention to the national landscape. First and foremost, we focus on our own team. Secondly, we really dive into preparation of the next team on our schedule. That's really how we approach our program." Duke lost its top three scorers from a year ago. For most teams that would signal a step back. Thanks to Hood and dynamic freshman Jabari Parker, the Blue Devils plan on improving with a potent offensive attack. "I think we should be balanced," Wojciechowski said. "We have very good depth. We're going to be able to play a lot of different combinations and I think you'll see over the course of the season, we'll have many different leading scorers." That said, it's no doubt that Hood and Parker will be a big part of the game plan each and every contest. "Certainly Rodney and Jabari are guys who are going to be in a position to be centerpieces in the offensive end, but that doesn't always equate to scoring," said Wojciechowski. "That's why I think you'll see a very balanced scoring attack with this year's group." Don't be surprised if as many as ten ACC teams make the NCAA tournament this season and Duke could very well be the best of the bunch. One thing's for certain if you ask Wojciechowski...it's a great place to call home. "It has the best coach, arguably, in college basketball history," he said. "It has tremendous tradition of great players who are also great people who have achieved things together that they wouldn't have been able to achieve alone. You walk into Cameron and you see the banners and you see the history and you feel the spirit of the program. It's just different. It's one of those things, at times, that's hard to put into words, but when you're around it you feel it and you want to be a part of it and you want to uphold it." With the leadership of Krzyzewski, the attitude of coaches like Wojciechowski, and the talent and determination of players like Hood and Parker, Duke has all the components to uphold the program's spirit and then some.

text: A never-ending spin cycle by John Hayward 27 Apr 2013 View Discussion Share This: In response to Churnalism 101: "Churnalism" is an absolutely perfect word for it. Not only does it help lazy writers produce content, but it gives them an excuse to throw in all their usual obsessions, as in the fusion reactor non-story, which became an excuse to trot out a pile of climate-change hysteria. The article could have been half as long and given a title like "Checking in with the Iter project: Thirty years to go for results, but the dream remains alive." (The title you suggested over at your blog was even more honest.) Look at the vast sums of taxpayer money poured into absurd wind and solar projects that were, under the most optimistic but realistic projects, still decades of development away from true economic viability. I doubt wind will ever be anything but an expensive hobby for ideologues to blow other peoples' money on, and a moralistic way for crony socialists to get their hands into our wallets, but maybe another 20 years of development could produce solar panels that really work. But instead, they were pumped full of taxpayer subsidies by politicians and corporate parasites determined to pretend this green-energy junk is actually competitive with the energy resources that do work, including some exciting recent developments like fracking. Nuclear fusion would be terrific, and I'm all in favor of developing it, but what logical purpose is served by long article that waits until the very last paragraph to tell you that it's still thirty years away from producing energy, and forty years away from selling it? And if anyone tries building a fusion reactor in the U.S., aren't they going to run afoul of the same anti-nuclear green radicals who fervently oppose fission reactors?

Villa Anatoli
Cremythas, Corfu, Greece
Villa Anatoli Introduction
If you are looking to get away from it all, Villa Anatoli could be just right. Perched on a wooded hillside above the northeast coast, its secluded location makes it great for a restful break. When you want to get out and about, a ten-minute drive brings you to the pretty pebble beach and tavernas at Aghios Stefanos, while the shops, restaurants and bars of Kassiopi are a 15-minute journey away along the main coastal road.
The villa is single storey with gardens sloping down to the swimming pool. A large stone terrace equipped with sunloungers frames the pool, providing space for relaxing and looking out over the surrounding olive and cypress trees. From the pool, steps take you back to a shaded terrace at the rear of the villa, which offers fantastic views across to the Albanian coast in the distance.
Step inside and the property is spacious and homely, with simple furnishings matched with cream tiled floors, pale yellow décor and high wooden ceilings. The open-plan sitting and dining room has patio doors to the terrace and the kitchen is equipped with thoughtful extras such as a washing machine and microwave.
Usefully, each of the three air-conditioned and simply furnished bedrooms comes with its own ensuite bathroom.
Neighbouring the Villa Bouritsa Farm, the Anatoli is an excellent choice for families or groups eager to escape the hustle and bustle.
