Flagstaff officials: City getting along just fine without Cards' camp
Some predicted that Flagstaff's economy would suffer from the loss, but the city didn't just survive, it actually saw a big boost in tourism dollars.
Spending at restaurants and bars was up almost 12 percent in August from the same time last year and hotel bookings jumped 7 percent from last August.
Heidi Hansen with the Flagstaff Convention and Visitors Bureau said an aggressive ad campaign in the Valley helped.
"We took out ads on the light rail and we did King Kong bus wraps that are moving billboards," Hansen said. "People came up and enjoy Snowbowl Sky Ride and do the Flagstaff Extreme where they climb and zip line in the trees. Lowell Observatory and other attractions were also very popular."
Flagstaff also ran an ad campaign in Las Vegas.
Hansen said the city did take a tourism hit during the government shutdown but the big moneymaking ski season is just weeks away.
"(Arizon Snowbowl) can make snow now, so that is going to be a big push," she said.
Mayor Jerry Nabours said the city enjoyed having the Cardinals in town "but as a financial impact on Flagstaff, it doesn't matter if they're here or not."
Nabours also pointed out that Northern Arizona University is enjoying a strong football season. There have been a few home sellout crowds, which is pumping even more dollars into the local economy.

AND LO, THERE WAS NEWS AND IT BROKE… The announcement we were expecting is here, and it's the title and cover art for Timothy Zahn's Han Solo novel. Here's the blurb:
The Death Star has been destroyed. The Rebellion has had its first big victory. And Han Solo, newly conscripted to the Rebel cause, is on the run from the Empire and the bounty hunters eager to turn him in for the huge reward being offered by Jabba the Hutt. Now a mysterious stranger offers Han the resources to execute a daring robbery from a major crime lord. The mission is impossible, but the prize will make Han a free man. With no choice but to accept, Han Solo and his Wookiee partner, Chewbacca, set out to assemble a cast of rogues, knaves, and cons with the right combination of wits, skills, and derring-do to pull off an operation of this complexity and scale—the best scoundrels the galaxy has to offer. And then the game is on: a rip-roaring, intergalactic, Ocean's Eleven-style heist adventure starring Han Solo, Chewie, and Lando Calrissian, written by #1 New York Times bestselling Star Wars author Timothy Zahn!
Of course, the other 8 scoundrels are still a mystery, but we need something to debate until December 26! (A Wednesday? Well, I'll take it.) For the record, Zahn himself says "…While there may be a name or two you recognize, most of the rest of the group will be new characters."
Knights Archive spotted that the Random House fall catalog is out, and it contains a listing for Timothy Zahn's yet-untitled Han Solo novel – with a small blurb that gives a few more plot details:
The Death Star has just been destroyed and Han Solo still needs the money to pay off the bounty on his head. Now the opportunity to make that money and then some has walked into his life in the form of the perfect heist. With nine like-minded scoundrels, he and Chewbacca just might be able to pull it off and live to tell the tale!
The listing also mentions a wraparound cover featuring the eleven (ha) scoundrels, and calls it the "perfect" entry for casual fans.
(Also, we now have a tag for the book. It'll change when we get an actual title, but thanks to StarWars-Union.de for the
MUPPETS suggestion.)
Also in the catalog was an entry for Drew Karpyshyn's The Old Republic: Annihilation, but no new details.
And here a few other entries that might also be of interest: The Lands of Ice and Fire, a map book to the world of ASoIaF and Game of Thrones, and Geek Mom: Projects, Tips, and Adventures for Moms and Their 21st Century Families, from the folks who produce the blog.
On Facebook today, Timothy Zahn reveals a few things about his next Star Wars novel: In addition to starring Han Solo and being set in the original trilogy era, "it will be an Ocean's Eleven-type heist caper." Sounds like fun! (via)
We should be getting a title "sometime next month," Zahn says. Some of us are hoping it goes a little like this.
Michael Heilemann takes to the archival footage and shooting screenplay to see if there's evidence for George Lucas' claim that Greedo always shot first.
Erich Schoeneweiss posted on Star Wars Books account on Facebook:
Just announced at our Del Rey Star Wars books panel: Drew Karpyshyn will write a fourth novel that will tie into The Old Republic for Fall 2012 and Tim Zahn will write a new novel starring Han Solo set in the classic films era. More details to come on both as they develop.
Dunc adds: I'm sad to see Zahn in the movie era again, but as Han has frequently been the highlight of his other works there, it has possibility. Some on Twitter are hopeful that this could tie into Han's smuggling days (or at least, other smugglers) which could be interesting.
Entertainment Weekly has footage from an extended version of Han and Leia's corridor scene on Hoth..
We've seen and heard about these at before, but now you can finally get your hands on the Han in Carbonite and Artoo ice trays via the always-awesome web store ThinkGeek.
It's May, and as always, Hallmark's 2011 Dreambook is out. The ornaments were on display at Celebration, but for those of us who weren't there or somehow completely missed the Hallmark booth, this is the first look.
Come July 16, you can pick up Jedi Master Yoda, Slave I, LEGO Darth Vader and the ever-controversial Showdown at the Cantina, featuring audio from the DVD edition. A fifth ornament, Bossk, will be available during the Keepsake Ornament Premiere.
Other familiar franchises you can deck your trees with this year include Star Trek, Harry Potter, Wizard of Oz, Pirates of the Caribbean, several superheroes and… Twilight.
All these ornaments will be available only in Hallmark stores.

Sweet & Lynch
Being completely honest here, I really didn't expect a whole lot out of this. I'm not the biggest Stryper fan in the world by a long shot, and the truth is that I just never could fully get into Michael Sweet's vocals. There's just always been something about him. I'm not sure what it is. I guess… Read More
In a year that has see a foundational piece of AC/DC succumb to a debilitating illness and another to his own personal insanity, AC/DC emerges after seemingly forever away with ROCK OR BUST. To be fair and truthfully honest, expectations on this release were pretty low. I know that AC/DC is a band that's been in business almost 50… Read More
David Coverdale and company have had a very long and successful history that started even before he formed Whitesnake. There's no denying the legacy here. Coverdale has had a fantastic career with Whitesnake, and his time in Deep Purple was every bit as strong to that band as a Sammy Hagar was to Van Halen… Read More
There's an unwritten rule that I rarely follow here in Cleveland. That rule is that if a band is from Cleveland, I'm supposed to write all glowing things or else be called a hater by the local community. It's sad that it's like that, but the truth is what it is. For years I've lived with that stigma, to the point… Read More
Machine Head
What happened to Machine Head really is a crime. Unfortunately for them, it's a crime they perpetrated upon themselves. With a mistake so many made in their youth, this band singlehandedly torpedoed themselves from ascending to the heights in metal held by only the select few like Metallica and Megadeth before them. After THE MORE THINGS CHANGE came… Read More

Texas Hippie Coalition
I tell this story often, but it's one of my favorites of the past year. I had the chance to interview the Texas Hippie Coalition earlier this year at Rock On The Range in Columbus, Ohio.

Adrenaline Mob
I'm not sure how a band with as much talent and as many reasons to like them has turned out to be so incredibly uninteresting, but that's exactly what Adrenaline Mob has become to me. I am one of the biggest fans there is of vocalist Russell Allen. Love his work in Symphony X. Love what he's done with Jorn Lande. Hell, I was probably the biggest fan going of his ATOMIC SOUL solo album. While I'm not a fan of drummer Mike Portnoy's previous band Dream Theater, I have nothing but respect of this guy's undeniable talent as one of the most elite drummers on the planet. Yet, try as I might, I cannot get into Adrenaline Mob at all. Their debut release was pretty average and unmemorable. They quickly followed that up with a covers album - bleh. Covers releases are as useless as tits on a chick I can't have or see because she's dating a close friend.
Hammerfist are a no bullshit Hardcore band from Southern California. They are not the kind of guys that will look to explain out the deeper meaning of their songs, or the instrumental idiosyncrasies of their various guitar tones or drum beats. To the contrary, Hammerfist seem like a band that would look you in the eye and say, "here's our shit, so deal with it!" Fair enough. Since I assume this about them, I'll give a little of that back to them. No BSing around here, and no looking for a lot of words to say. ISOLATION is a pretty damn solid hardcore EP that would certainly please the Agnostic Fronts and Integritys of the world for developing their influences into something tangible in 2013. There's a LOT of power here on ISOLATION, and a lot of from the heart energy that's poured into each and every song.
Kyler is a band that I really know NOTHING about. By nothing, I mean that I can find almost nothing at all about them online, so even a quick run through Google didn't help to figure out just what makes this band tick. So, in many ways, this review has to be old school and based solely on old school habits. In short, this band HAS to be reviewed solely based on what I hear in my ears. Fair enough!
Kyler's SWAGGER is a band that reminds me of a lot of great influences from other bands that I enjoy a great deal. Throughout any given song, influences of bands like Pantera and Lamb Of God come screaming through. At other times, you feel a kinship with modern bands like Texas Hippie Coalition. SWAGGER is full of giant guitars, monsterous riffs, gutteral vocals that are clean enough to understand, and a hodge podge of traditional thrash and metalcore stylings that just plain works.
Steve Harris
I've been dreading writing this review for a really long time, but I can't dodge it any longer. As much as Iron Maiden is one of the CORE bands of my entire existence, saying that BRITISH LION is anything but mediocre to subpar drivel is impossible. Certainly, the guys from Iron Maiden have done projects outside the band before. Bruce Dickinson's solo career is astoundingly good. Adrian Smith's Psycho Motel albums weren't bad either. But this...ugh. It hurts to write, because more than anything else, Steve Harris basically IS Iron Maiden. He's the maestro of their sound, the creative force behind the band. He's the producer. He's just about everything for Maiden. That said, you have to wonder just why he brought NONE of that skillset to this project that has his name on top of it. BRITISH LION is a dull, drab collection of songs with fairly subpar production value (for which Kevin Shirley should be ashamed for taking a check considering the mix of this turd). Listening to this and even remotely comparing this sound to ANYTHING Iron Maiden has released since, say, 1985 leaves you wondering why Harris didn't just scrap this or put more money into it to make it sound better.
Night Ranger
Night Ranger and Loverboy were two bands that were, pretty much in my eyes, linked together back in the 80s. There was something about the two of them. They weren't quite metal bands at the time, and there was something that was catchy about both but never led you to think they were anything more than cookie cutter hard rock bands. Night Ranger was my favorite of the two, because they weren't all whiny and wrote better songs than Loverboy. I'm sure many of the chicks that were 15 or so during that era would probably disagree with that assessment, but so bet it. It's interesting how at this phase of their careers, both have re-recorded their hits right now for releases to appease the old guard. For Loverboy, their re-recordings was an abortion of epic proportions that pretty much proved they should retire. While Night Ranger is probably a few decades too late to be releasing an UNPLUGGED effort, I'd be lying if I said this wasn't fairly catchy and fun.
33 Love Child
So many times, new bands get all wrapped up trying to reinvent the musical wheel so much that they forget to actually showcase the core influences that made them what they are in the first place. 33 Love Child is a band that features vocalist Whiskey Diamond, who many metalheads might remember as the vocalist behind ex-Megadeth guitarist Marty Friedman's solo material some years ago. That said, he's brought his strong voice together with some qualified musicians to create an album chock full of material that doesn't really break any new musical ground, but just kicks ass because of one simple reason - it rocks.
There's been several incarnations of Krokus, at least as I hear it. There's been multiple versions of the band, so much so that I think that there hasn't been a single member that's been along for the entire ride of the band. They have had a metal period, a hard rock period, a hair metal period, and a blues rock (spelled AC/DC) period. While they have had some really bad albums from time to time though, they have never fully lost their edge or their ability to be, ultimately, a solid band. On the heals of their highly successful album HOODOO, Krokus has taken the more blues rock sound from that album and furthered it with their latest, DIRTY DYNAMITE. While certainly not the best thing they've ever done, DIRTY DYNAMITE is a fun, bluesy album chock full of solid songs. While it's almost certainly not going to attract any new audience, it's definitely not going to push anyone that's been following along away.
There's just a feeling of anticipation for the majestic when you hear that a new Saxon release is forthcoming. You know each and every time that these English rockers are going to deliver something that just sounds big, triumphant and awesome. Sure, they have had their albums that weren't that good. But overall, they are one of those bands who's disappointing albums are not so bad that you would ever write them off completely.

It's not every day we have the privilege of welcoming Brit Award-winning artists to our Hollywood office, but we did our best to play host for Aston, JB, Oritse and Marvin, not least because they've attracted some serious fans. Coachella headliner Jay-Z told reporters at the Brits that JLS "put on a class performance and I think they will go on to be as big as 'N Sync.".
Who are we to argue? We've officially hopped on the bandwagon for their upcoming second album, which the group is recording in Los Angeles with Wayne Wilkins, Andre Merritt, Lindy Robbins and other top writers and producers. One major issue: thinking about how the new songs will translate live, since the group tends toward over-the-top performances. When it comes to songwriting, "every little bit means something to us in the show," Aston told us.
JLS treated us to two airtight performances. First, they hit us with "Everybody In Love", the big J.R. Rotem-produced single from their debut — enjoy this, because the next time you hear it live, the guys will be partially drowned out by thousands of screaming, jelly-kneed fans. Then, the guys very, VERY graciously agreed to our request to hear their cover of Shai's "If I Ever Fall In Love", the song they performed on their audition for The X Factor.
"Everybody In Love":
"If I Ever Fall In Love":
You can see why we're so excited for their album. Now pardon us while we go try to regain our composure. (The guys, meanwhile, will continue about their merry way, greeting fans from outside our office).

Electronic System-Level (ESL) Design
Keysight provides the most accurate communications system design tools which accelerate PHY development and verification time by reducing cross domain iterations. With Keysight, you'll be able bring real-world effects higher in the design validation process.
ESL Design Challenges
- Analog/RF and baseband/DSP/embedded teams often work in relative isolation in the design or HW validation phases, increasing the risk of time consuming and expensive iterations.
- Traditional single domain "point tools" have poor to no interaction with the real world and rely on mathematical models to capture real-world effects.
- Validating hardware after systems achieve hardware integration may mask critical design flaws and require complicated physical test benches for verification of final designs.
What's New
- Keysight Donates $120 Mil. Gift of Software, Support and Training to Georgia Institute of Technology

Like the rest of filesystems used in Linux, procfs is supported by the Virtual File System (VFS). VFS is a kernel layer that provides abstraction when working with file systems, so that it handles the differences between file systems and shows a common interface to work with them. Although other Unix-like systems provide a procfs (FreeBSD, for example), the format varies between systems. Linux uses a plain text format and FreeBSD uses a binary format in some places. The first approach is better when working with shell commands like cat, grep, etc, but the second one is better when programming.
Under /proc we can find general system information and specific process information and statistics. Linux distinguishes different types of information with the inode number. An inode number in Linux is represented as a 32 bit number and a PID (Process Identifier) is represented as a 16 bit number. With this schema, Linux splits the inode number in two halves of 16 bit. The left half is interpreted as a PID number and the right one is interpreted as a class of information. Since a PID=0 is not valid, Linux uses this value to indicate that inode contains global information.
What kernel does when we type for example cat /proc/cpuinfo is showed in Illustration below.
First of all, the process created by the shell requests data by reading the file. VFS catches the request and establishes the kind of file to read is a procfs file (actually, the file is a pseudo-file). The procfs subsytem queries the kernel tables to find the information required by the process. The kernel structures asked depend on the type of information the process wants (global, specific, about cpu, a process, etc). After the data have been collected, the process� buffer is filled.
The most important aspect is that this process of information gathering is completely transparent from an external point of view.
Modern operating systems use features from modern processors. These processors allow to execute code in two or more levels of privilege. Linux kernel uses two of the available levels to perform user mode and kernel mode (i.e., user-land and kernel-land).
The main goal is to provide an independent environment for kernel execution. In this way, if a user process crashes it may affect to other user space process, but never to kernel space.
The complexity added is to copy data from user-land to kernel-land and reverse. This is what procfs does in a way that is well known by linux users: using files.
cpuinfo is one of the files that can be found in /proc. It provides information about your cpu. As we can see, a lot of useful information is displayed. This is what my cpuinfo says about my cpu:
processor : 0
vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 15

Where does this information come from? If we navigate by the source code of the linux kernel, we find a file in /usr/include/asm/asmx86_64 (your path can be different, of course). In this directory, we can see the processor.h file. Let's look inside and search for a structure named cpuinfo_x86.
struct cpuinfo_x86 {__u8 x86; /* CPU family */__u8 x86_vendor; /* CPU vendor */
__u8 x86_model;
__u8 x86_mask;
/* We know that wp_works_ok = 1, hlt_works_ok = 1, hard_math = 1,
etc... */
char wp_works_ok; /* It doesn't on 386's */
char hlt_works_ok; /* Problems on some 486Dx4's and old 386's */
char hard_math;
char rfu;
int cpuid_level; /* Maximum supported CPUID level, 1=
no CPUID */ __u32
char x86_vendor_id[16];
char x86_model_id[64];
int x86_cache_size; /* in KB valid
for CPUS which support this
call */
int fdiv_bug;
int f00f_bug;
int coma_bug;
unsigned long loops_per_jiffy;
} ____cacheline_aligned;
This is one of the structures where the linux kernel keeps information about your system characteristics.
Is difficult to achieve this information in user-land mode, so the kernel gathers it in kernel-land and offers it to user-land via procfs. This is a good approach and it avoids the extensive use of copy_from_user and copy_to_user functions.
The Linux kernel implements a set of functions to create and manage procfs pseudo-files. These functions are exported by the kernel, so you can use them from a module. (I explain some of them):
The creation functions return a pointer to a proc_dir_entry structure. This structure is used to specify the behaviour of the file when a read or write operation is performed. The proc_dir_entry structure is shown below (from /usr/include/linux/proc_fs.h)
struct proc_dir_entry {
unsigned int low_ino;
unsigned short namelen;
const char *name;
mode_t mode;
nlink_t nlink;
uid_t uid;
gid_t gid;
unsigned long size;
struct inode_operations * proc_iops;
struct file_operations * proc_fops;
get_info_t *get_info;
struct module *owner;
struct proc_dir_entry *next, *parent, *subdir;
void *data;
read_proc_t *read_proc;
write_proc_t *write_proc;
atomic_t count; /* use count */
int deleted; /* delete flag */
The two last pointers are related to the read and write functions respectively. Let�s assume that we have defined two functions:
static int my_read(char *page, char **start,off_t off, int count,
int *eof, void *data){
static int my_write(struct file *file,const char *buffer,unsigned long count,void *data){......}
All we need to do to link this operations to our file is:
What we can do in the body of these functions can be very complex. In the simplier case, if we want to read data from the kernel and make it available for user-land we have to print data in the page structure (with sprintf or whatever else function at your own).
When a user wants to write a data, we first have to read the data from buffer. But watch out! This buffer is in user-land so we need to copy to kernel-land by using copy_from_user function.
Let's see an example. We will create a file in /proc that returns the number of times the file has been read:
#include /*Working in kernel mode*/
#include /*Writing a module*/
#include /*We use procfs functions*/
static struct proc_dir_entry *my_entry; /*Our file entry*/
/*This is executed when the file is read*/
my_read_function (char *page,
char **buffer_location,
off_t offset, int buffer_length, int zero)
int len;
static int my_count = 1;
if (offset > 0)
return 0;
len = sprintf (page, "File read %d timesn", my_count);
*buffer_location = page;
return len;
/*This function is executed when the module is loaded*/
static int
enter (void)
printk (KERN_INFO "Module loadedn");
my_entry = create_proc_entry ("my_test", 0444, NULL);
if (my_entry == NULL)
/*Failed when creating file */
printk (KERN_ALERT "Error while creating filen");
return -1;
/*Set the read function */
my_entry->read_proc = (read_proc_t *)my_read_function;
my_entry->owner = THIS_MODULE;
return 0;
/*This is executed when the module is unloaded*/
static void
finish (void)
printk (KERN_INFO "Unloading module...n");
remove_proc_entry ("my_test", NULL);
module_init (enter);
module_exit (finish);
To compile this, create a Makefile with these lines:
obj-m += test.o
make -C /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build M=$(PWD) modules
This program creates a file named my_test that counts the number of reads.
I know this could appear a bit confusing and dark. Writing kernel modules is not as easy as programming a Hello world application with libc and other support libraries. But I hope this will help you to understand the internals of procfs. Reentrancy and concurrency are not trivial problems we have to deal with if we are working in kernel mode. So take it easy. This document is not trying to discover all the knowledge about kernel programming or module writing. This is only an overview about kernel processes needed by procfs to work.
{mospagebreak title=Some examples on using procfs}
Procfs is a very useful file system. You can gather a lot of information from it without worrying about libraries, or system calls or writing C programs. Just reading files.We have seen how procfs works from the inside. Let�s see what can we do with its files:
System temperature:
[fernape@Hammer]$ while true;
> do cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature ;
> sleep 5;
> done;
You can easily change the script above to read /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state to know your battery charge. Isn't this easier than writing a C program?
Change host and domain names:
Certain files under /proc are available for writing (only for root). You can change hostname and domain name by writing in:
/proc/sys/kernel/domainname and /proc/sys/kernel/hostname
Please, take care. Change the host and domain name is not a dangerous task, but with procfs you can change a lot of settings than can lead to a lack of performance.
See the kernel boot parameters:
You can see them in cmdline.
[fernape@Hammer proc]$ cat cmdline
ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet console=tty0
These are only a few examples. With procfs you can set the maximum number of waiting RT POSIX signals, the number of semaphores the system can manage, the maximum number of files opened by the kernel, etc. And procfs can be a good allied in program debugging.
If you want to read more about files in /proc you can read this excellent article: http://www.linuxforums.org/misc/understanding_/proc.html
As we said before, other UNIX-like systems have a procfs. However, is in linux where it becomes powerful and very used. FreeBSD removed procfs from the system. They now collect system information by means of system calls directly. But if you want to run linux programs on FreeBSD, you need to install the procfs emulation package.
There are several applications and libraries that use procfs. Some of them are procps, libgtop or lkmonitor (I take part in the last one).
Although there are other ways to gather system information, procfs provides a simple way to achieve this goal. Everything in linux is a file (sockets, devices, pipes...), so I think procfs uses a good and consistent strategy to offer this information.

Some things are improved with technology, while others are better the old-fashioned way. I think interactive crossword puzzles beat their paper-and-pencil counterparts hands down. I like being able to change letters and I like being able to check my work as I go. Three letter word for "online crossword puzzle?" F-U-N.
Kids Crosswords and Other Puzzles5 stars
Each of these educational puzzles for the elementary-school crowd covers a different subject. The summer assortment of ten puzzles includes Ancient China, First Aid, Pollution and Mountains. Most of these puzzles are interactive crosswords, but some are word scrambles and word searches designed for pen and paper. Don't miss their extensive archive of past puzzles.
New York Times Learning Network Crosswords5 stars
Among crossword puzzle fans, the daily New York Times crosswords are legendary. These Learning Network semi-monthly puzzles for students are edited by the very same puzzlemaster, Will Shortz. Each puzzle has a theme (such as Summer Safety) and both an interactive and printable version of the crossword, as well as Web site recommendations for further learning. Topics in the archive cover a wide range, with an emphasis on history and science. The quality of the puzzles and the depth of the archive, make this my pick of the day!
One Across5 stars
"Having trouble getting the last word in that puzzle? Having trouble getting the first? See if our search engine can help! Unlike pure pattern dictionary searches, we actually analyze the clue as well." This is a pretty amazing tool. To use it, enter the exact clue and an answer pattern. For unknown letters, use a question mark. For example, for clue "Cut" and pattern "h???" you get the answer "hewn" along with other lower rated answers such as "snip" and "sawn."
Puzzles by Puzzability5 stars
These original interactive puzzles were created to showcase the talents of a team of three puzzle experts, including the crossword editor of the "Wall Street Journal." Among the daily and weekly puzzles you'll find crosswords, word searches and brain teasers. "We like to point out three ingredients you'll find in our puzzles: 1) A puzzle that is left unsolved is basically a failure. Puzzles are made to be solved. 2) Puzzles are not tests. They're entertainment. 3) A good puzzle is a bit like a joke. The unsolved components are a set-up, and the solution is the punch line."
Thinks.com: The World's First Crossword5 stars
Although the origins of the crossword puzzle can be traced to nineteenth century children's books, journalist Arthur Wynne is credited with creating the first modern crossword puzzle. His Fun Word-Cross appeared in "New York World" on December 21, 1913. Follow the link at the bottom of the article to see it. Notice how only the starting and ending squares have numbers, and the clues are numbered the same way.

I've seen a lot of people complaining about how champions and runes are too expencive. Well, I've got news for you. You don't need to own every champion in the game.
I save my IP for champions that I try out, enjoy playing, and decide to stick with.
You also don't need to own an individual rune page for every champion in the game.
I decided to post this since I'll probably never have exactly 11111 IP again.
I'd like to make this thread into a discussion of IP prices on all items in the LoL store.
Feel free to agree with me or disagree. I'll respond to legitimate posts.
Yes you need to own every champ in the game, cuz you gotta catch em all.
What video is that
The video is "Re: Summoner Showcase #56 - Joy to the League" and the one on the right is Re: Summoner Showcase #57.
Junior Member
All good, except for the fact that you are using internet explorer. PLEASE get some other browser xD...
use google crome now or else
i dont think the problem is the champions prices i find them 2 be ok, the problem is the runes pages and runes u need more than 12k ip 2 buy runes 2 get a complete rune page (generic runes page) and u need extra runes pages for some champs like kennen and rize that u cant run them w a generic AP runes, that 6300 for the extra rune page is a lot.
Hey all , There's this great commentator streaming right now , He'll be analyzing mid play and lane concepts over at www.own3d.tv/phrank !
I know it may be something you don't want to hear, but the "expensive" 6300 champs, rune pages and expensive runes are the only thing we're working towards. The price represents accomplishment, can't give it all away for a few nights playing.
But after we;ve all been playing a year or so, you should be sitting on stacks of IP snd a few sets of runes.
good job.
I bought 1 extra rune page, for a total of 4 which covers me, and on average 4 sets of each type of rune i run, so i have everything i need, without having to be a completionist. 50 champs, always float between 17-24k ip or so. I buy about every 3rd 6300 champ (any support or brawler for sure), and it doesn't make much of a dent on IP. I'm kind of on the fence about the new armpen/mpen combo marks.

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - The San Antonio Spurs selected small forward Kyle Anderson of UCLA with its first-round pick Thursday, the 30th selection of the NBA Draft.
Anderson, who left the Bruins after his sophomore season, averaged 14.6 points, 8.8 rebounds and 6.5 assists. The 6-foot-9 forward is considered one of the draft's top passing big men, which is optimal for the Spurs.
His place with San Antonio could be impacted by the free-agency plans of Boris Diaw, the 6-9 forward whose passing helped sparked the Spurs' five-game victory over the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals.
Diaw, along with Patty Mills and Matt Bonner, is an unrestricted free agent and Aron Baynes is a restricted free agent. Most, if not all, are expected to return as San Antonio attempts to win its sixth NBA championship.
San Antonio also had the 58th and 60th selections in the second round late Thursday.
With Tim Duncan exercising his $10.4 million player option to return for his 19th season rather than retire, the Spurs do not have an immediate need. Depth was one of the team's biggest strengths last season, with its bench averaging a league best 45.1 points per game during the regular season and 41 points in the playoffs.
The bench could play an even larger role next season.
In addition to continuing to limit the minutes of veterans Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili, the team's depth could ease the early stress for several Spurs who are playing for their respective national teams this summer.
Ginobili will play for Argentina and Mills and Baynes for Australia and in the FIBA Basketball World Cup beginning Aug. 30 in Spain. NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard will attempt to make the U.S. team.

Discerning cat walks 12 miles back to old home
Updated On: Jun 23 2014 08:32:27 AM CDT
A discerning cat in Oregon walked 12 miles back to its old home after a move he apparently didn't fancy.
George went missing shortly after his family moved across town in Portland in May.
The Campions looked everywhere.
Then someone suggested they check their old home.
Sure enough, the new renters said an orange tabby had been hanging around the house begging the new tenants to pet him.
"I couldn't believe it was him," Amy Campion told The Oregonian. "He was thinner, but he seemed perfectly fine."
George is now back at his new home again. He didn't protest, but was kept on a leash for a few weeks when let out in the backyard to make sure he stayed put.

The TMP01 is a temperature sensor that generates a voltage output proportional to absolute temperature and a control signal from one of two outputs when the device is either above or below a specific temperature range. Both the high/low temperature trip points and hysteresis (overshoot) band are determined by user-selected external resistors. For high volume production, these resistors are available on board.
The TMP01 consists of a band gap voltage reference combined with a pair of matched comparators. The reference provides both a constant 2.5 V output and a voltage proportional to absolute temperature (VPTAT) which has a precise temperature coefficient of 5 mV/K and is 1.49 V (nominal) at 25°C. The comparators compare VPTAT with the externally set tempera-ture trip points and generate an open-collector output signal when one of their respective thresholds has been exceeded.
Hysteresis is also programmed by the external resistor chain and is determined by the total current drawn out of the 2.5 V reference. This current is mirrored and used to generate a hysteresis offset voltage of the appropriate polarity after a comparator has been tripped. The comparators are connected in parallel, which guarantees that there is no hysteresis overlap and eliminates erratic transitions between adjacent trip zones.
The TMP01 utilizes proprietary thin-film resistors in conjunc-tion with production laser trimming to maintain a temperature accuracy of ±1°C (typical) over the rated temperature range, with excellent linearity. The open-collector outputs are capable of sinking 20 mA, enabling the TMP01 to drive control relays directly. Operating from a 5 V supply, quiescent current is only 500 μA (max).
The TMP01 is available in 8-pin mini PDIP, SOIC, and TO-99 packages.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Colorado's John Grant Jr. and Adam Jones were named the Offensive Player and Rookie of the Week, respectively, on Wednesday. (Photo Credit: Bill Wippert)
Colorado's duo of John Grant Jr. and Adam Jones, Toronto's Nick Rose and Philadelphia's Brodie Merrill are the latest NLL Players of the Week.
Grant was selected as Offensive Player of the Week for Week 12 with two high-scoring efforts after missing two games with an injury.
Grant scored six goals with one assist Friday in a 13-12 home loss to Philadelphia. He then tallied three goals – including one to tie the game in the final minute of regulation – with nine assists for a season-high 12 points in Sunday's 16-15 overtime win against the Wings. Grant also collected 11 loose balls in the home-and-home series.
Honored with weekly award the fourth time this season, Grant leads the NLL with 40 goals and 87 points in 10 games.
Jones picked up Rookie of the Week honors for the second time in three weeks and third time overall. He notched four goals, including the game-winner 9:38 into overtime, and five assists in Colorado's win on Sunday.
The third overall pick in the 2011 NLL Entry Draft scored two goals with an assist in Friday's one-goal home loss to the Wings. Jones corralled 12 loose balls in the weekend set.
Rose earned Defensive Player of the Week honors after a solid debut between the pipes for Toronto. Days after being acquired in a trade with Calgary, Rose held the Knighthawks scoreless for almost 30 minutes at one point and finished with 28 saves on 35 shots in the 13-7 win.
That snapped the Rock's three-game losing streak.
Merrill was named Transition Player of the Week for the third time in 2012. He scored twice, assisted on two other goals and collected 11 loose balls in the Wings' overtime loss to Colorado on Sunday.
Two nights earlier, he drew an assist and scooped up eight loose balls during Philadelphia's win in Denver.
The weekly player award winners are selected by a vote of the league's general managers and head coaches.

Halo Stratics is searching for a captain to take the helm as the Halo Stratics Managing Editor(ME).
The role of the ME is not for the faint at heart, as it requires considerable time, ingenuity, and hard work. While we support MEs on a daily basis, they are ultimately responsible for the development of both their portal (content) and forums (community). This includes finding and hiring volunteer staff members. Fortunately, the advantages are also numerous: free hosting and support, an existing user base, and the opportunity to garner acclaim within a given title. MEs are also eligible to receive 33% of any revenue generated by their portal, but this revenue will be predictably low until the portal/community are built up.
Be mindful that Stratics is a 15-year-old network that formally partners with game developers and publishers, including EA/BioWare and Portalarium staff. Accordingly, we expect the highest degree of professionalism from our senior staff, which includes Managing Editors. ME applicants must be 18 years or older to apply.
If interested, please click here to apply.

This is America!!
We speak ENGLISH!
Get it straight Obama and quit being a petty tinpot wannabe King and Moslem Jackass!!!
What happens when Conservatives let the mindless herd from the Mpls/STP metro elect the Governor..
Especially one whom failed as a Senator..
Stabbing in Costa Rica after World Cup event..
Who 'lost' match against Netherlands on…
And also Costa Rica has the gun control..
So you be safe..
Of course he was a 'good' kid…
Just out working hard…
Robbing folks..
With a gun..
But ran into a man with a gun also..
And lost…
I wonder how well the residents of Chicago like seeing their tax dollars defending the city from lawsuits..
For denying citizens their Rights?
Or do they even realize it is their money?
Give up their guns?
Another back door gun grabbing scheme..
Try to take my 82 yo Korean War Vet, life long hunting Dad's firearms..
Of which he only has a .22, .12 gauge, and .35 Remington…
Will cost you..
He'll shoot your damn eyes out!
What does your State say about the Right to Bear Arms?

Examples of what you can find in my portfolio.
The Canadian Paediatric Society hired me to design and build a bilingual site that helps health professionals care for immigrant patients. It is optimized for mobile devices via responsive design.
The Association of Ontario Midwives hired me to build a new responsive website, OntarioMidwives.ca.
The CAWC hired me to design a new information architecture, install a new content management system, and create a refreshed look for their website.
Vestiigo is a career site designed to simplify the job search market. This is one of the more complex sites that I've developed, perhaps more of a Web app than a website.
Marlene Oliveira offers both yoga instruction and copywriting services through her company moflow, and wanted a website that would promote them in parallel.
I worked as the Web Manager at the Canadian Diabetes Association for 2½ years, during which time I headed the redesign and re-architecture of diabetes.ca.
