adidas Consortium adiZero PrimeKnit Boost – Black – White by Zack Schlemmer 0 Comments
January 23, 2013 BY Brendan Dunne / 0
The next adidas Consortium release on deck is the stony grey adidas Consortium Centaur curated by the folks at Hanon out in Aberdeen, Scotland. The sneakers reflect Europe's long standing love affair with adidas trainers, opting not too get too insane with the blocking and instead going for a muted set of greys after Hanon's hometown's "Granite City" nickname. Hit the jump with us for a video look book featuring the Hanon x adidas Consortium Centaur and look for them to drop out in Scotland on January 26th, with a worldwide release going doing the next Saturday, February 2nd.

Last week on his television program, The 700 Club, Pat Robertson responded to a viewer's question about whether those who were aware should have felt morally obligated to let her know that the man she had been transporting in her vehicle had AIDS. The question contained a hypothetical scenario in which there was a car accident and the implied possibility of blood-blood contact among injured passengers. The original video has already been posted and removed from several websites, but for now it can be viewed here.
In the video, Mr. Robertson grants that he is not an expert on the matter of the disease itself. He points out, in fact, that he once believed it was transmitted by saliva. Indeed, many millions of people thought such things 30 years ago; Robertson himself doesn't specify how recently he believed it. He continues, "Now they say it may be sexual contact [which spreads HIV]." That seems accurate, but notice the qualifiers. They (if we can trust them) say (that is, allege) it may be (and, by extension, may not be) sexual contact.

The European Union-driven Erasmus Mundus, a cooperation and mobility programme in the field of higher education, is a big draw among Delhi University students, researchers and faculty.
Delhi University, which became a partnering university of the Erasmus Mundus programme in 2008, has already sent one batch of 35-40 scholars to universities in EU countries in addition to hosting students from European countries.
"Twelve students from the Netherlands, Germany, Lithuania, Sweden and Belgium came to DU in 2009 and are studying economics, history, Hindi, social sciences, mathematics and other subjects," says the Delhi University International Relations Dean, Prof. K. Sreenivas.
The 2009-10 Erasmus Mundus programme also has two sub-programmes titled Lot 13A and Window India Learning Link Power or WILLPower. Lot 13A focuses on exchanges between Europe and India and aims at giving students, researchers and academic staff the opportunity to study or work in one of the partner universities through a scholarship that will cover all expenses. Twelve European and eight Indian universities are partnering institutions in Lot 13A.
The Indian partnering universities include Delhi University; Jadavpur University, Kolkata; Pune University; Kerala University; Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur; Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai; Pravara Institute of Medical Sciences, Loni; and Anand Agricultural University, Gujarat.
Lot 13A aims at furthering the Millennium Development Goals. The mission is to create a partnership for research and development that would strengthen ties between India and the EU. The topics that would be included in the education and research collaboration are agriculture, climate change, energy, environment, biotechnology and nanotechnology.
The objective of the WILLPower programme is to strengthen the existing network of cooperation among Indian and European universities. The programme has 17 partnering institutes including 10 in Europe and seven in India which include Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore; Anna University, Chennai; Delhi University; IIT Guwahati; IIT Kanpur; IIT Madras and IIT Rajasthan.
The project encourages participation in the subject areas of architecture, urban and regional planning, business studies and management sciences, education, teacher training, engineering, technology, natural sciences and social sciences. Each scholarship covers tuition fees, subsistence costs, travel expenses and insurance.
A total of over 300 students will study in European universities under Lot 13A and WILLPower. While nearly 1,500 applications have been received from India under Lot 13A, 800 students have applied under WILLPower.
"The results should be declared by February-end. We are processing the applications of European students who wish to study here. In April, Indian faculty will begin going to the partnering universities in Europe while students will proceed in September," Prof. Sreenivas says.

This is another instance where Jerry gets to be devious at the expense of Tom. From the beginning, a solid theme is set in place; if Spike's nap is interrupted once more by any kind of noise, Tom will skinned alive! As usual, the animation is just great... (read more)

Apr 04, 2010 Beth rated it 4 of 5 stars · review of another edition
The four McNair children have spent most of their childhood moving around (father's job). Ironically, just as they settle in rural Oregon, their father dies and soon after that, their mother does as well. Educated from the cradle to distrust the social services system, the children (eldest almost 16) decide to bury their mother and go it on their own. With the help of a young and sympathetic lawyer (who doesn't know their secret) we follow them through the next eight years of their lives. Excell ...more

I loved this book! I listened to the audio book while driving, and literally would sit int he car when I got home to finish the chapters. The book really hooked you in - was written in a style that was believable for the age of the writer, kept your interest. It was believable because the story centered around siblings taking care of each other, and the deep dark secrets that siblings can keep with each other. Great read.

This is my first Kate Wilhelm and one of her older ones, but several heart pumping times in this story. Maybe a little far fetched but that's what a "suspense novel" is all about, right?

After spending their whole live on the move, the McNair family has finally settled down in an Oregon cabin and life is good--until both parents die. Afraid of being split apart in foster care, the four McNair children try to hold their family together themselves, but they are haunted by the memory of their mother. The Good Children has an intriguing, if cliché, premise, and it's easy to consume, but the writing is unremarkable and the book is entirely immemorable. There's no harm in reading it b ...more

I thought there'd be no way these kids could do what they did until I read the book & saw it really could be possible. If I'm remembering correctly it had a fairly good outcome all things considered too, which made it more enjoyable. Not that it was a "happy book", but rather I mean it was a good read.

This book was so good. I enjoyed it so much ... I didn't expect to. I listened to it on audio and at first the voice sounded so creepy but I eventually got used to it. I enjoyed this book immensely. I didn't fall in love with it, which is why it's only a 4 star but I do recommend it to others.

This is a difficult book to rate. I have listened to other works by Wilhelm and was expecting more of a traditional mystery or suspense novel (I hate to use the word thriller). It was ultimately impossible to suspend disbelief. The main characters were able to successfully executive every scheme they devised to keep their family together. However, it was refreshing that there were serious consequences to their actions. I think that the philosophical elements were intended to be thought-provoking ...more

This was a stand-alone novel written by one of my favorite authors, Kate Wilhelm. I've read an entire courtroom/mystery drama series and a Hugo Award winning science fiction novel by her. This was an entirely different type of book (realistic fiction), and I was, again, impressed by her abilities that include writing in a variety of genres. In some ways, this book is slightly reminiscent of *Flowers in the Attic* (but not really). It has a leisurely pace with lots of psychological development of ...more

Interesting and different. I had no idea what to expect from this novel…I was actually expecting some type of legal thriller but I was way off base. This quick and easy read is actually a personal tale about a family, specifically the four children. Kevin, Amy, Liz, and Brian all must deal with life after tragedy tears apart their family. I enjoyed the story and read it within two days but I have to say that I kept expecting something more. I kept waiting for an event that never really happened. ...more

Four children (11–17) are left alone in the world after their parents have died. Though their father has provided a trust for them, they are all afraid of being separated and put into abusive orphanages (as their mother had been). So the children live out the deception that they have a mother until they all come of age and live on their own, but they hide a really big secret. The book is filled with love, care and ingenuity, and a very nice story.

Sometimes I find Kate Wilhelm's books a liittle dry for me, but this one was pretty good. It was interesting to see how the toll of losing both parents at young age. I have to say that for three of four children it was hard, but they accepted it. Execept for the youngest McNair child, who defintely made this book interesting with a ghost story feel. Also, I liked the emphasis of family to the plotline which at time also created tensions.
Jul 24, 2009 Sophia Musgrave rated it 5 of 5 stars
Creepy but a really good story! Four siblings cover up a horrible accident then have to live with the consequences years later, causing the youngest to suffer the most. With lies and deception, it pulls them together even tighter as a family but creates unhealthy environment and they all suffer to some extent. I think it was a bit scarier than any of her other books I have read, psychological thriller yet a bit ghost story thrown in too.

Well, a gothic tale about insular children living on their own without parents SOUNDED good. It just didn't come together for me, somehow. I don't know. Not enough tension, the ending was a major letdown, and I just didn't buy it, basically. I wouldn't have finished (I'm such a quitter if I don't love a book) except it's a quick, short read, and I hoped there might be a crazy ending to make it worth it. No such luck.
I didn't know what to think of this book at first, which direction it was going in. As I was reading it, I found that the story itself didn't at all seem that realistic. I don't know how three teenage kids can go 3 years without knowing there mother is dead. Breaking someone out of a mental hospital...ummmm yeah don't think so. But I did enjoy reading the book and kept me interested, therefor 3 out of 5.

Nicely written. I liked how I thought I knew what happened, but it didn't work out quite that way. Strong main characters, interesting story (though it takes a lot of setting up to make it believable). Four children stick together after the death of their parents by pretending their mother is still alive. As the years pass, however, the repercussions of their decisions comes back to haunt them.

Why do I keep reading Kate Wilhelm just to be disappointed? The premise of her books always looks good to me, but the execution always lets me down. I expected a lot from this book and only received a little. It was okay - not bad, but not good. And I had read a review that it was scary - Ha! Not in the least. If you're totally bored with nothing else to read, it will do.

After reading several reviews of this book, I was expecting a lot more. The book started out slow. I was finally able to get interested in the characters and what would happen to their lives. There were a few plot twists that seemed unrealistic and/or went nowhere further. Then comes a quick ending and so many unresolved questions about the children's lives and relationships.
Aug 27, 2011 Melissa Armato rated it 4 of 5 stars
I absolutely loved this novel! It is about a family desperate to stay together (no matter what) even though tragedy has struck and could separate them. This book is full odds that have to be overcome even if in unethical ways. This is only one of the two Kate Wilhelm novels I have read and I will keep coming back to her as she is genius for psychological fiction.
Jul 23, 2012 Jenn rated it 3 of 5 stars
This is touted as a novel of suspense. But I don't really think it was. A little bit of supernatural, an accidental death and some pretty messed up siblings. The story was OK, but I swear it was threatening to turn into a romance type book if it had carried on beyond the end. It was a quick read and while I wasn't disappointed that it ended, it wasn't a terrible story either.

Low 70's is a high temperature for most ale yeasts (excluding several Belgian strains, some of which can go all the way up to the 90s). The particular yeast you are using - Wyeast Irish Ale - tends to be very estery once you get into the high 60s and low 70s. Here is the description from their website:
This yeast ferments well in dark roast worts. Beers fermented in the lower temperature range produce dry and crisp beers to fruity beers with nice complexity in the upper range. Ester production is enhanced with fermentation temperatures above 64 degrees F (18 C). Flocculation is low to moderate with filtration typically required.
Flocculation: Medium
Attenuation: 71-75%
Temperature Range: 62-72F, 16-22C
Alcohol Tolerance: 10% ABV
Taking this into consideration, I would try to hold my fermentation temperature close to that 64 F mark if you don't like estery beers - this shouldn't be too hard to do in the winter. Just remember that heat generated during vigorous fermentation can cause the actual temperature of the beer to be up to 8ish degrees higher than ambient temperature - probably less for you because you under pitched.
Fermometers are a nice, cheap and simple way to know the temperature of your beer (almost everyone carries them). If you keep your fermenter in water to help regulate the temperature, just be sure to stick it on horizontally above the water line. They get kind of screwy after prolonged exposure to water.
Thanks again for all your replies. In case anyone was holding his or her breath waiting to learn the fate of my brew, I posted an update and some follow-up questions on a different thread: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f163/too...7/#post1800487

Killing time while waiting for the next chapter. OnePiece, that is.
Failed against Oro
Failed against Kabuto
Fought to a draw with random Sand nins
Failed against Itachi
Failed with Sasuke
Failed against Sakura and Naruto
Failed to stop Deidara
Failed against Kakuzu
Failed against Pain
And people are saying that he is the guy who could have killed Sasuke? The same Sasuke who trashed Deidara, bested Itachi, black-flame roasted Killer Bee, crushed Danzo like a bug fourteen times (until he finally died, thanks to his Cockroach No Jutsu skill), killed Oro with the quickness and made Kabuto crap his panties, inject himself with Oro DNA and run around with a blanket over his head? Kakashi's going to stop this guy? No. At this point Kakashi would get clowned by Zetsu. Naruto probably stopped Kakashi from running across the water to fight Sasuke, cause he knew the effort of just running would put Kakashi in the hospital for a year.
kakuzu was him....he did the most damage....
but yeah the rest...kakashi hasnt won, but his power levels are unmistakeable..
The same Sasuke who
- only beat Deidara in a fight thanks to plot armour and elemental weaknesses
- only beat Itachi because Itachi died of heart disease in the middle of a fight
- got tricked into thinking he black-flame roasted Killer Bee and failed at capturing the 8-tails
- beat Danzo thanks to plot induced stupidity (what kind of ninja would just stand there and allow themselves to be killed time and time again, wasting an eye in the process, just so that he looks cool?)
- Killed a bedridden Orochimaru who had no use of his arms
Next chapter .......... Killerbee wiil teach Naruto how to be perfect host for nine tail kyuubi.........
And Madara will teach Sasuke a new Jutsu ..........
Just my prediction ..........
What I got from this chapter:
Naruto: You saw what was in my heart! WE DIE TOGETHER!!!
Sasuke: WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!! I AIN'T GAY!!!!!
2. Again. Itachi didn't walk home with the win did he? And how long did Kakashi even last against Itachi? Oh yeah, that's right. like three seconds until he got Genjutsu'd into bed for a couple of months. Or maybe he was just tired from fighting all those generic sand nins.
3. Yeah, he didn't capture the 8 tails he just sent him running off like a bitch into semi-retirement looking to take up a career singing. Bottomline: Bee couldn't take the heat, so Bee got out of the kitchen. Sasuke pwned him.
4. Danzo couldn't dodge Sasuke's attacks because of the same reason Kakashi couldn't dodge. They're too old and fat and slow and Sasuke is speed demon. The comic acknowledged way in advance that Sasuke is a fast-draw motherfucker with serious one-shot take-out power. Water boy accepted it, Itachi accepted it, Deidara accepted it, Madara accepted it and Danzo and Kakashi even state as much in their fights. Danzo would have clowned K-money. Kakashi has the endurance of a fat guy on a cheap porn site. He has trouble killing people once. More than once and you get into the Kakuzu situation, where if it wasn't for Naruto Kakashi would have been tentacle raped and be whistling out of his asshole when he walks, right now.
5. Oro in the white snake state would have eaten Kakashi for breakfast and crapped out a better ninja.
if naruto and sasuke are top class ninjas, does that mean the manga is almost over??
Whether Kakashi can kill, that shouldnt even be a question, because his jutsu can kill, period. From the look of it, he plans to die with Sasuke. So it's not a problem that he isnt strong enough to survive. Remeber we are reading fiction. It all depends on the plot.
For once i cant wait for a story to end.

Last week, my best friend was hit by a car and killed. Bijoux was eight human years old (56 dog years). She was a 25 pound corgi/sheltie mix with the most amazing personality - the perfect mix of playful and calm, cute and smart. We shared a profound connection. I loved her more than anything on this earth. That's quite a statement, but it's true.
In these past two weeks, I have been amazed by the number of people who absolutely get the relationship that those of us who are animal lovers have with our pets. I've also been amazed by how many people really don't get it. One person said to me, "keep it in perspective, Susan, it's just a dog."
You may be wondering why I am writing about this and how this is pertinent to what I normally write about - marriage & divorce.
What has been astounding to me is how many people have told me that they had a harder time when their dog died that when they split up with their spouse. One woman told me she thought something was seriously wrong with her because she wept uncontrollably when she had to sell her horse and shed nary a tear when her husband moved out.
How is it that we can have a much stronger connection with an animal? A being with whom we can't converse or share our worries with?

This paper does recognize that "China's actions can be seen as pragmatic reactions to different pressures.". However, the question the paper should have thought of is that, why do these different pressures come simultaneously, while Yan'an earthquake just hit and the nation is in the midst of fighting H7N9 flu? The answer to this question is very clear, if put in a historical perspective. That's exactly what Japan did to China, whenever China had any serious domestic trouble, e.g. 1931 Manchurian Incident, in which Japan technically started the WWII against China. Today, not only the rival Japan, other neighboring countries backed by the US, not coincidentally, had decided to take actions against China at the same time. This just shows how shameful these countries are.
Now it is time to discuss the independence of
in my opinion
for the sake of the peace in Asia.
History can be re-interpreted as politics changes.
I remember that between late '60s~ early '70s, articles published in the People's Pictorial always articulated that people in Okinawa should get rid of U.S. imperialist rule and re-join Japan.
Anyway, Okinawa itself is a sad story. As one of the three colonies of Japan -- Okinawa, Korea and Taiwan -- which were incorporated by Imperial Japan after the Meiji Restoration, Okinawa was the only colony that was devastated during WWII with one quarter of its population perished in a less than month-long fierce battle. (I always suspect that Taiwan and Korea were spared the plight because Chiang convinced FDR to let Korea become independent and take back Taiwan but skip Ryukyu.)
Actually out of the three colonies, comparably Ryukyu suffered the most under Japan. When it was a dual tribute state after 1600s, every time after the Chinese merchant ships left, those Samurai from Satsuma would confiscate every piece of traded goods and sent them back to their daimyo.
What had been left with the Ryukyuans were only the sweet potatoes which saved them from famine. (They were more lucky than the Irish whose population decimated from the potato famine.)
Anyway, as a benign power, U.S. should at least hold a referendum in early '70s to let the Okinawans decide their fate -- whether to become a UN trust territory, or become independent or join Japan.
Does your American dad permit to make revision of history?
Actually, these selective and biased articles on China aim at fooling the stupid western people and not to state facts.
If only the US government ceased to contrive and support the right-turning Abe……
Xi Ping: "People are protesting for safe drinking water, what should we do?"
Li Kequiang: "Let's provoke a foreign country. Then, when that country responds to our provocation, we can ask all Chinese to circle the wagons and stand firm again said foreign country's belligerence to mother China."
Xi Ping: "I see. People who might continue to protest us for safe drinking water can now be called unpatriotic. Manufactured foreign conflict is a tool to eliminate domestic unrest. good idea."
At the end of WWII, then KMT government based in Chongqing was busy to compete with CCP to recover the land occupied by Japan.
Chiang even dispatched a 4-tier official to take over Taiwan whom had caused the 2-28 Tragedy.
Even when Japan gave up all the occupied islands in Spratlys, KMT just took up one (by that time both Vietnam and Philippines were all colonies and had not occupied any islands in the Spratlys).
But when the dust was settled down in the '50s, KMT should have asked U.S. to give Diaoyu/Senkaku to its administration. I guess Chiang didn't ask because KMT had problem in holding onto coastal islands, i.e. it lost the Da Chen island off the coast of Zhejiang in 1955 (U.S. helped evacuate the troops and civilians back to Taiwan) and there was the Kinmen island bombardment in 1958.
And KMT didn't expect U.S. to return the islands to Japan in 1971.
Don't worry, no one should fear the PLA, except for students planning a protest in downtown Peking. This is because:
1 The military hardware is generally at least 25 years behind the latest technology. Just look at the last military parade in 2009, they are mostly Vietnam War era weaponry.
2 The PLA hasn't fought a major war for over 50 years. The last major military operation was against Vietnam 30 years ago. And that operation went very badly.
3 The PLA training is poor to none by modern standard. Average flying hours of fighter jet pilots are below 100 a year.
4 The jewel of the crown is a 30-year old second-hand Soviet carrier with no operational jet.
5 The submarines are so unreliable that, on average, they spend less than 100 days a year at sea.
Should I continue?
When there is a dispute between China and a neighbouring country, the western media, including The Economist, always present the case in such a way that it appears that China is the bad country or is wrong and the other country is the good country and is right. This is the case in the dispute between China and Japan over the Diaoyu Islands, between China and the Philippines in the South China Sea and between China and India in the Himalayas.
On the other hand, when the US or a western country is invading, bombing, assassinating the population of another country or is in dispute with another country, the US or the western country is always presented as the good country and the invaded country is the bad country. Thus, when the western countries led by the US invaded Afghanistan and Iraq, when they bombed Libya, when they support the terrorists to bring down the Syrian government, when they assist the terrorists to cause disorder in China, the western countries are always presented as being on the right side of history.
There must be definitely wrong with the reporting of the western media.
The only people who are sympathetic to Japanese's claim of the Okinawa and Diaoyu Island are India, Vietnam, USA, and Philippine. It seems China has many more friends than enemies.
To be fair, this article is more balance and not really China bashing. But still Philippine need to stop its illegal invasion and evacuate Zhōngyè Dǎo (Thitu Island) within a year.
Unfortunately for you China has a very bad track record:
1)Taiwan is an independent country and the people living there don't want to under China. Why can't China respect this since they have been a self-governed country for most of the 20th century.
2)Tibet. This is an occupation. China's claim for Tibet are very shady. The Chinese claims for Tibet have their origin at a time when China itself and Tibet were occupied by the Mongolians. How did China emerge as the descendant of the Mongolian Empire and claim lands that were occupied by the Mongols?
3)The Senkaku Islands. Here China claims the ownership of the islands because Taiwan claims them. Since China considers Taiwan its province, they interfere in what should be a negotiation between Japan and Taiwan only.
4)South China Sea. Just go to Google images and search for "South China Sea claims". You can see how absurd China's claims are. Their claims go so near Malaysia (and Brunei as mentioned earlier) that if a Malaysian tries to swim for 50 meters he is in China.
5)China attacked Vietnam.
6)China attacked India.
As for North Korea, their rhetoric has been bellicose by any standard, and they are the ones trying to set off nuclear devices. Never mind past violence in recent history, like shelling an island, and possible culprit in the sinking of a ship.
Not sure why you would want to try to defend that regime (and the preceding dictators), considering the public record.
Otherwise, Japan did well by the Plaza Accord - the country boomed for four years, and still retained large trade surpluses (actually grew initially). I know, I was there. That was not the case with others who signed on, like France and the United Kingdom, which saw trade surpluses with the US dwindle.
Now the lowering of interest rates set off a heck of an bubble, in the financial markets and real estate, exaggerating already heavy borrowing habits in the corporate sector that date from the time of Ikeda.
If you don't mind me asking, are you a Chinese national? Because the narrative about the Plaza Accord seems to follow typical misperceptions and a rather sloppy rhetorical approach that seems to crop up with Chinese posters.
lets not fool ourselves to believe China suddenly became so aggressive. Which remind me when Obamur said Chemical weapon is a game changer and there you go again, Chemical weapon it is.
My advice to japs, vietnam and other willing lackeys, don't play a role you have no clue that the action is about. History shows you have nothing to gain but everything to lose.
This is yet another stupid, thoughtless article by the Economist. The Economist seems to take the stand that China is right in all territorial disputes, and that other countries have been provoking it into a response. That's utter nonsense! What has the Indian Government done to provoke the Chinese? Nothing. China is basically a bully with a huge inferiority complex and outdated territorial ambitions. Banyan needs to stop "sucking up" to the Chinese -- we get the impression that Banyan may secretly be on China's payroll!
The post sounds like something from someone who had too much Bruichladdich.
Americans can't see 65 years ahead. Too short-term-ist. So plain crazy statement.
And the train of recent events suggest local sources of conflict, just like the little imbroglio of Chinese fishermen with the Japanese coast guard boat in 2010.
Don't know about the British, but I doubt they were like well lets concoct this frontier so that in the future an independent Indian government would be inclined to assume a hostile disposition towards China (whatever government that may be).
Otherwise, are you implying the British government ringed up the current Indian government and coaxed them into turning up the heat on this issue? Comes off as pretty weirdly paranoid if that is the case.
These are issues resulting from the actions of the parties directly involved.
Wildly engaging in finger pointing and trying to dodge responsibility is counterproductive in the end.
When you point fingers, three are pointing back at you.
China had a bad streak with diplomacy and crying about some alleged conspiracy isn't going to change that.
If it chilled out, collected itself, and let things cool down (let some time pass), it probably could engage and reach quiet agreements with at least a few of the countries (say the Philippines, Malaysia, Brunei); and lower the temperature and isolate others.
The Chinese government provided Pol Pot with financial and military support, which allowed the Khmer Rouge to engage in a protracted guerrilla styled war with the Vietnamese (trust me, the Vietnamese never wanted to be there). To be fair, I would say the massacre was an indirect, perhaps unforeseen consequence of supporting Pol Pot.
As for Chinese dynasties killing other peoples, just ask the Dzungar (Maybe you don't count the Qing dynasty as Chinese, I don't know) and the Tibetans. Do your own research and you'll find out more. I'd say it's history and in this modern era, shouldn't be brought up for argument (e.g against the Japanese) to justify your actions now.
To be honest, I really like the Chinese culture and hope that China's rise turns out truly peaceful for everyone
Well, in the neighboring countries' eyes now, in case you haven't noticed, the Chinese government IS the devil. I have nothing against Chinese people. In fact, many of my friends are Chinese.
The Americans are the *far* lesser devil once you are between a rock and a hard place

Hi. Can somebody on a Stock ROM please PM me their Product ID - you can get this by entering
An 8-digit ID is then displayed. This will only work on Stock and may or may not on stock based ROMs. Can you PM this to me? I need this as I am testing this tool http://en.club.vmall...lock&action=pre and I hope that the product IDs are the same for each G300, as I sold my G300, so I can't get my product ID.
Thanks in advance

Clustermines 0.7.3
Clustermines is a minesweeper game in Java.
Here are some key features of "Clustermines":
· Mines are bigger. More numbers for your mental calculator.
Flagless mode
· Want a challenge?
Safe border mode
· A mine field with its perimeter already cleared. If you don't like those 50%/50% chances on border, try this.
Practice mode
· Don't worry about dying!
· I hope this works in real life too. Honestly.
· Java Runtime Environment (tested with JRE6)
What's New in This Release:
· I've fixed solver for the multi-mines mode. It works as before now, doing only one-square analysis. The rest might be a little hard, though.

My Dad passed away 16 years ago today. I don't know how much of the drawing "talent"/desire/proclivity or whatnot is passed down in families, but he was inclined to doodle earlier in life. Though by the time I came a long I can only remember a handful of times he drew and most of those
Weekend Adventures
Last weekend I pilfered my son's red twistable crayon. On Saturday he saw it laying on my desk and said it was his– which meant he suddenly wanted it. A few minutes later he put it back down in the den, so I required it before we took our weekly trek to Target for
Why Our Mailbox Reminds Me of Death
A quick drive down our street and you'll notice a couple of things. First, that the trees in the front of the three houses at the end of the cul-de-sac are a different variety than the rest of the neighborhood, and second, that those same houses have very different mailboxes. Ours and our neighbors' on
She Had a Sweetheart Named James When She Was Young

Warm Up Sketch – Sept. 11, 2014

Instagram Sketch Roundup – March 20, 2013

Warm up sketch: Another Robot
Continuing the theme of robots, here's something I managed to sneak in between jobs today. His name is Gerald.
Warm-up Sketch: Uni-Welder
I bought some art supplies this week including new white acrylic ink for highlights. I also used up the last piece of art board on my pad, so I used the back. A felicitous convergence of two events on a week saturated with politics.
Warm up sketch: Hound
No time to write anything substantial or color the sketch today since I'm headed out the door to go to a funeral. Until Tomorrow, here's Hound. He was always one of my favorites as a kid.

Fans have always been curious about the scrapped, the cancelled, and the replaced. That's why we have "communities within communities", fan-followings that study and emulate the HL1 and HL2 "betas", as some choose to call them. But it's when we get wind of mysterious projects we'd previously never heard of, that we really get excited.
We decided to e-mail Marc Laidlaw himself, to find out what's the deal behind all these supposed, canned Half-Life spin-offs. And not only is he great at telling stories, he's also great at… telling us stuff. So he actually did tell us some stuff – regarding the recent info we dug up on Return To Ravenholm, and the controversial possibility of an Episode Four.
Regarding the Ravenholm project, Marc told us:
Hi, Vic, there was indeed a project called Return to Ravenholm. We are big fans of Arkane and wanted to come up with a project we could work on together. We threw ideas around, they built some cool stuff, but we eventually decided that it didn't make sense to pursue it at the time. As I recall, we felt like a lot of the staples of Ravenholm–headcrabs and zombies!–were pretty much played out, and the fact that it would have to take place sometime before the end of Episode 2 (so as not to advance beyond where Valve had pushed the story) was a creative constraint that would hamper the project…and Arkane.
We also asked him about Episode Four (since resumes belonging to former Arkane devs that had been leaked in the Eidos network intrusion did mention an Episode Four), and the little that Gabe and co. had spoken about in 2006-2007:
I'm pretty sure that Gabe was referring to Ravenholm. Makes no sense why there would be [an Episode 4].
Well, there you have it. This "Ravenholm" project was real after all. There may have never been an Episode Four at all, and this "Return To Ravenholm" seems to have been all Arkane got to work on. Of course, that didn't harm Valve and Arkane's relationship – they would later go on to work on The Crossing, which was inexplicably put on hold due to "financial difficulties" in mid-2009.
Unfortunately, at some point in 2010, Arkane was acquired (read: devoured) by ZeniMax/Bethsoft. Now they're working on something else with Viktor Antonov – "Dishonored", built on the Unreal engine and designed by Harvey Smith, which, much like "The Crossing", takes place in an alternate universe, with a steampunk twist. Unfortunately, but predictably, The Crossing's trademark "Crossplayer" system (which you can experience in some capacity in Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2) will not be present.
Still, if only Valve was this transparent regarding another Half-Life game all the fans want to hear about…

Waiting Families
Diane & Matthew
Dear Potential Birthparent,
Our names are Diane and Matthew. We are two loving, nurturing, kindhearted and intelligent people who would love to adopt a child.
We have been a couple for sixtween years. We met at a wedding reception and started dating shortly thereafter. There was an instant chemistry and bond unlike no other we had known before. We truly feel blessed to be together.
We are longing to share all out blessings with a baby. Our desire is to give your baby everything you would if you could. Please read further and discover why we could be the ideal match for your unborn child.
Imma & Jerry
Dear Birth Mother:
We are Imma and Jerry and we thank you for your attention and the time you are dedicating in reading our letter.
We want you to know that we understand the difficult decision you are making. We respect and admire your decision to make an adoption plan. Even though we don't know each other we have a lot in common which is the desire to give your child the best life possible.
Dear Birthparent,
I appreciate you taking the time to read my letter. This must be a difficult decision for you and I admire your strength. My hope that this small snapshot into my life and family will provide some comfort to know you are making the right choice for your baby. I have friends who have adopted and I see the relationship they have developed with their child. I see how much they love their children and how quickly they bonded. I too have dreamed of becoming a parent this way and hope you will consider me.
Barbara & Butch
We are Barbara & Butch – or as friends and family call us B&B! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. As you go through this emotional process, hopefully you will consider us as the couple right to adopt your baby and that we can ease your mind about your baby's future during this difficult time.
We met in July of 1999 – it was love at first sight! However, we really didn't start dating until September because each of us went on already planned family vacations in July and August. But once we started seriously seeing each other, we quickly became very close.
Francisca & Francois
Dear Birthparents,
Thank you for taking the time to read our letter to you. We want you to know that we have the greatest respect for you and for the brave decision that you have made to make an adoption plan for your baby. We can't imagine how you must feel as you consider adoption, but our hearts and thoughts are with you. If you consider us as parents for your child, they will know that your decision was made out of love. We hope to be able to share that love for your child with you.
Natalie & Fabrizio
Thank you for considering adoption, and for giving us the opportunity to introduce ourselves to you.
We are honored that you might consider choosing us as the adoptive family for your baby. We have chosen adoption because we believe that through fate, destiny and a greater power, "our" child will come to us, and we will be able to impart our love and knowledge to help him or her throughout life.
Elisabeth & William
Dear Birthmom,
Thank you for reading this letter and considering us as adoptive parents for your child. We are very grateful for the chance to introduce ourselves to you. Choosing an adoptive family for your child must be an overwhelming process and we admire your courage and strength for making this decision. By reading this letter we hope to show you who we are, so you may feel assured that we can provide a loving, safe and stable home for your child.
Kelli & Jason
While we have not met, we know the decision you are making takes remarkable bravery,
strength and courage. Our respect for you is immeasurable. We are honored and excited that you are
taking the time to get to know us. We are Jason & Kelli and we are truly grateful for you.
Eva & Thomas
Dear Birth Parent,
We are Eva & Thomas from Austria and we very much appreciate you taking the time to read our letter!
Most of all we want to let you know how much we admire and honor your difficult and brave decision to consider adoption. We truly wish that your decision will bring you peace and confidence.
We thank you for the opportunity to introduce ourselves.
Melissa & Jeff
Dear Birth Mother
We imagine that this is the toughest choice you will ever have to make. We are so impressed by your strength and courage and respect you for making this decision.
We are Melissa & Jeff and we are overjoyed that you are considering us as adoptive parents! We are excited to start a family. We will do everything we can to provide for your child. We are looking forward to little league games, school plays, holidays, family vacations, and sending your child to college.
Thank you for considering us as a forever family for your baby.
Daniel & Eric
Dear Birthparent,
Thank you for taking the time to read our letter. We are so excited to share our story with you. We know this is a difficult decision, and we want to assure you that it is our goal to offer a safe and secure environment for your child to grow up in.
Dear birth parents,
It is difficult to start a letter knowing that somewhere in the United States, there is a loving parent who must be in a very difficult situation, considering an adoption plan for their unborn baby.
I'm single, 44 years old, living in Austria and I always wanted to have a
family. Somehow it happened that I did not meet the partner who I
could build a family with. Having read and heard a lot about adoption
here in Austria, adoption was an easy decision for me.
Heather & Jason
Dear Birthmother,
This must be a diffucult time in your life, and we would not pretend to know what you are going through. But with this letter we want to introduce you to our loving family, which we hope to expand through adoption.
Garrett & Paul
Hi there!
We are Garrett and Paul and we are very happy that you are reading about our family.
We have thought a great deal about this difficult and overwhelming time for you. So many things to think about, so many options and only one courageous you. Hopefully we can play a part in helping you give your baby the start in life that they deserve.
We would be honored to welcome your child into our family.
We are happily determined to tell you as much as we can about our family…
Zaida & Charlie
Dear Birthparent,
We would like to begin by expressing our admiration for the strength it takes on your behalf to consider adoption for your baby. It is a courageous and selfless decision and we would be honored, to be considered as a family for your child. It is our hope with this letter, to provide you with a picture of what life with our family
would be like for your baby. We will also tell you a little about ourselves prior to starting our family. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to introduce our family to you.
Kelly & Tom
Hi! We are Kelly and Tom.
Welcome and thank you so much for choosing to read our letter.
Clare & Rich
Dear Birth Parent,
Our names are Rich and Clare, and we live in a laughter-filled home with our 3-year-old son, Liam. We know there is another child out there that would thrive as part of our warm, loving, fun-loving family.
If we end up being lucky enough to bring your child into our home, we will spend the rest of our lives loving your child, taking care of them, and giving them a place in the world where they are secure, safe and comforted, knowing that the decision you made was out of love and concern.
Ansgar & Vincent
We are Ansgar and Vincent. We are living in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, together with our two sons Jonathan (2011) and Benjamin (2012), both born in the USA. Before we tell you anything else about ourselves, we would like to thank you for deciding to have this child. We think that this is a very courageous decision you have taken. We can imagine that this must be a very emotional time in your life and we have nothing but respect and understanding for you. We would like to stress that any child who is welcomed into our home will have a bright future, with all the opportunities that life has to offer. We will raise your child with love, warmth and a sense of humor, so that he or she will grow up to be a happy, stable and independent person, always with a positive opinion of you and your difficult choices. We would like to tell you a little bit more about ourselves in this letter. Hopefully, this will help you with your decision-making and give you an idea of the life and love that we have to offer to your child.
Peter & Hisham
It was not easy to find the right words for this letter but we hope to convey who and how we are in this world and what we might bring to the life of your child. We have written you this letter with open hearts and the genuine intention to communicate something authentic.
Let us try to tell you how we plan to fill the role of loving parents for your newborn child and how we intend to respect your wishes in every way possible. Then we hope you will see why we are the right family to raise your child.
Leon and Patrick
Thank you so much for taking the time to read our letter. You must be going through a very challenging time at the moment. Our thoughts are with you and the tough decision that you will have to make. We admire your consideration of adoption and understand that you are looking to do what you feel is best for you and your child.
Through this letter we will share a glimpse into our lives and why we would love to take care of your child. Although it is very hard to do this through words on paper, we will do our best to give you a good impression of who we are and our promise to you.
Laura and Matt
Our names are Matt, Laura and Andrew. We are grateful for the opportunity to write to you about our family and our hopes to adopt your child. We have been married for six years, and we have a nearly four year-old biological son, Andrew. We have a large space in our hearts for another baby, and we are looking forward to welcoming a child into our family through adoption.
Christine and Ted
Dear Birthparents,
We can't imagine how difficult this decision is for you and the courage it takes for you to consider adoption. We hope that by getting to know us this decision will be a little easier for you. Thank you for considering our family and taking the time to get to know us! We are Christine and Ted, and have been married for 13 years and have a 3-year-old daughter who we were lucky enough to conceive through in-vitro fertilization. We are trying to adopt because we have had several unsuccessful tries for another child, and we both want our daughter to have a little brother or sister.
