I turned 25 back in July and it has been just crazy since.
The weekend before my birthday I had a nice little gathering with a couple of friends and Robert. It was a small group but definitely one of the best birthdays I've had. I recently got back into playing Team Fortress 2, so most of the night was spent with us nerding out over it. I was surrounded by people that I love dearly that make me feel just as loved back and we spent the night exclaiming our shared enthusiasm for the game. We had a sing-a-long moment in the car with TF2 remixes, and at a local coffee shop we circled around and sketched. Then we spent the rest of the night chit-chatting in the apartment and playing the game together. The whole night was warming and nostalgic.
The following weekend I went to San Antonio for San Japan whom E.K. Weaver invited me to share a table with her. I don't do anime cons much these days, but it was a great location and I love being reunited with old friends that attend them regularly. On my birthday night we all went to a food truck park (MY FAVORITE). I got to meet a friend of E.K.'s, Dusty, who has become a very supportive and kind friend to me. We all chatted about the comics industry, ranted about Moffat, and Dusty asked me some questions about Gods in New York. It was a small thing but someone I barely knew showing so much interest in my characters meant a lot. Robert and I wandered around the waterway enjoying the sights for the last few hours of my birthday. Anais and I also proved that we can't think about the Armin dub scream from Attack on Titan without pissing ourselves laughing.
As if all of that wasn't festive enough, the weekend after San Japan was the monster San Diego Comic Con! I'd never been before and heard nothing but how insanely stressful and crowded it was. After all of the negativity I've heard surrounding it for so long, I actually ended up having a blast! It was incredible seeing all these things first hand. I got to see figures that haven't been released yet, people I've known on the internet, meeting artists I love, see big video game companies showing off their goods and creators, I played fucking BAYONETTA 2, I met GOD DAMN MIKE KRAHULIK, JERRY HOLKINS, AND SOME OF THE PENNY ARCADE CREW. I also got to have dinner with the Dusty I met the weekend before along with their life partner and a friend of theirs. The whole thing was magical and I'm so happy I had the opportunity to go. All thanks to my friend Diana Sprinkle. I wrote about it all a little more in depth on a Tumblr entry.
After San Diego Robert and I started our search for a house. It was a little slow at first because we ended up with some confusing situations but once we decided what area we wanted to live in and how we were going to go about it, it happened very quickly. We found a house that fit us perfectly. So now we're here making ourselves comfortable in our new home.
With all of these things together, it made for a hectic Summer. But instead of feeling a quarter-life crisis, I've been feeling like a new and even better stage of my life is hitting. I'm proud of where my life has been heading, and it only seems to get better. I'm so grateful for my experiences. It's been a rough year creative output wise, but I believe I'm going to be bouncing back twice as hard to make up for it!

The first full day of winter Sunday brought a mix including balmy temperatures along the Mid-Atlantic, snow in the Midwest and ice, snow and flooding in the Great Lakes, and utilities warned that some people who lost electricity could remain in the dark through Wednesday.

The Far Journey. Before ever arriving on the Isle of Refuge, you were on a ship called The Far Journey, with a Captain Varlos. This was an introduction of sorts to the very basic mechnics of the game. More than that, it was the set up for how you arrived on the Isle of Refuge, in the first place. Also, Captain Varlos would later take you to the cities of either Qeynos or Freeport. If you were a good-aligned charcter, you went to Qeynos, evil, Freeport, and if you were a neutral race, you could choose which. The voice acting was surprisingly good and, frankly, it was just a fun bit of fluff. It also made a heck of a lot more sense than simply popping up in the middle of nowhere for no rhyme or reason, the way new characters do now. Missed.
The Isle of Refuge. This was the very original starting island, even before it was changed to Queen's Colony and Isle of the Overlord (which, incidentally, was when Captain Varlos and his Far Journey were replaced by a very boring bell.) The original island had interesting NPCs, a small crafting instance, and some very tough encounters. It encouraged players to socialize and required them to group in order to complete every quest and be eligible to leave the island. It was a different era of gaming and a very different type of gamer, back then, but I think more of us are still around than companies give credit for. Missed.
The racial starting villages. Well, these were removed, and in my opinion, it was for the worse. The reason they were removed was that, because of the removal of the previous 3 items above, there was really no lore or reason to maintain them as they were, and it was deemed that, along with the Islands, they would be removed, so as to force new players to start in one of the other 4 cities, and not in Qeynos or Freeport, at all. The villages still exist, but only as instances, since the cities themselves were revamped. I do enjoy the new quests, but I wish they could have allowed the quest line to work organically with the game — when you complete it, you then again have access to the original villages. All of the NPCs who were in the villages and who gave quests that expanded to the outlying burbs (Graystone Yard connected to Oakmyst, for example) have been displaced into the city proper and most of their original dialog changed or nonsensical as a result. It really just broke up the entire early charm of the game. Missed.
The citizenship quest. Originally, after you left the island, you landed in one of the starting villages, based on your race. You then encountered a number of NPCs who sent you on small chores. In order to progress beyond level 6, however, you had to complete a citizenship quest. This quest granted you official license to reside in Qeynos (or Freeport) and was an interesting bit of character background and lore, besides. It, combined with the Far Journey, the Isle of Refuge, and your class quest, really helped to fully flesh out your sense of character as being a real inhabitant of the city, rather than just another "toon" running around. Missed.
The class quests. When the game launched, you began as one of the four archetypes, then graduated at level 10 to your chosen Class, and then at level 20, your final Subclass. All of this was accompanied by an interesting chain of quests that had their base in your home city, Qeynos or Freeport. Long gone, now. Missed.

Brent Batten: Dissecting a healthy choice on health insurance
A Facebook friend recently posted this:
"I want:
1. Everyone in the U.S. to obtain health insurance in some fashion, even if it means government subsidy for those who are proven cannot afford health insurance. Those who can afford it will be compelled in some fashion.
2. To continue a system where my inflated insurance premiums also pay for those people who won't or cannot buy insurance.
OK, vote."
It's an easy choice. But it is also a false one.
The phrase "government subsidy for those who are proven cannot afford health insurance" sounds innocent enough at first blush, but what it amounts to is government spending on an entitlement that will cost trillions of dollars.
When first passed, the Congressional Budget Office said the Affordable Care Act would add less than $1 trillion to the national debt over 10 years. Since, the figure has climbed to $1.7 trillion over an 11-year span. And remember, government estimates of program costs tend to be low.
What was happening last week in Greece and Spain wasn't happening because a soccer team lost or a prophet was slandered.
People were rioting in the street because the governments in those countries are trying to impose "austerity measures."
In a nutshell, the governments of Spain and Greece (and other European governments who face the same fate down the road) have been spending more money than they take in. They spend it on things like long vacations for public employees, generous pension plans and government subsidies for health insurance.
Their health insurance plans aren't identical to the Affordable Care Act, but they have one important feature in common. They require the government to borrow money to pay for the cost.
Spain and Greece have reached the point where lenders are no longer willing to give them money, or, if they do, they do so only at high interest rates. They've been relying on loans from other countries, including the U.S. through the International Monetary Fund, to get by.
Now they have little choice but to drastically cut spending, raise taxes beyond their already high rates, or both. People feel like they are entitled to benefits, having been promised them. They get upset to the point of violence when told the government can no longer afford them.
The United States government has been spending more than it takes in too. In the past four years, that deficit spending has accelerated at an alarming pace, from a $541 billion deficit in 2008 to a deficit of more than $1.3 trillion in 2012, according to the White House Budget Office.
The national debt, the accumulation of annual budget deficits, is more than $16 trillion. That equals about 105 percent of the total output of the nation's economy, the gross domestic product, for one year. Each American owes about $51,000 as a share of the national debt.
This is without the added cost of health insurance subsidies for additional millions.
By comparison, the Greek national debt accumulated over the years is less than $400 billion. As a percentage of the GDP, Greece's debt is 151 percent, according to the website, nationalddebtclocks.org, which tracks the borrowing of about 50 nations. The per-person share of the Greek debt is $34,000.
Spain's national debt is less than $1 trillion. As a percentage of GDP, the debt is 63 percent and each Spaniard owes about $16,000.
The U.S. economy is much larger and stronger than that of either Greece or Spain. We can borrow more and pay back more. But we aren't entirely immune from the effects of deficit spending. Our slipping credit rating is an indicator that the borrowing can't go on forever.
In the late 1990s, the Clinton era, U.S. government spending amounted to about 19 percent of GDP. Today it stands at more than 24 percent. Instead of looking for ways to spend more money, the government needs to look for ways to spend less.
That brings us to the second component of the false choice presented in the Facebook post — the idea that the only alternative to a massive new entitlement is continuing with the clearly imperfect health insurance system now in place.
Vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan has proposed reforms to Medicare, a major component of our annual spending.
While demagogued as "ending Medicare as we know it," such reforms aim to bring down costs by introducing a greater degree of competition. The theory is that the government can spend less and quality can be maintained when different providers compete for the significant sums the government will still be supplying.
Similar ideas can be brought to bear for non-seniors, lowering the cost of basic health insurance, making it affordable to more people.
Ultimately, the taxpayers will, in some form, continue to help the most vulnerable members of society obtain health care. The nation is too compassionate to let them languish.
But the examples of Greece and Spain should serve as a warning against an easy, but false, choice that creates a vast entitlement we can't afford.

HERE WE GO AGAIN: CR women to host Siskiyous with GVC title on the line
By Jackie Christensen
Feb 11, 2014 - 4:41:09 PM
Email this article
Printer friendly page
If it sounds familiar, it's because it is.
For the second time in three years, the College of the Redwoods women's basketball team will play with a Golden Valley Conference championship and potential postseason berth on the line as CR (7-1) hosts No. 15 Siskiyous (8-0) on Saturday at 2 p.m.
With a win, CR would move into a first-place tie with Siskiyous, and if the Corsairs could win their last game of the regular season Feb. 20 at Shasta, CR would earn a share of its first GVC championship since 1981 and would most likely earn an at-large bid into the state playoffs.
A loss, however, and the Corsairs fall to 8-2 and will be mathematically eliminated from title contention and could possibly miss the postseason altogether.
"We've been working for four months now to get to this week," said CR's fourth-year head coach Doug Oliveira. "But even if we're able to get a win, the game next week against Shasta is every bit as important."
From personal experience, it's a message the coach has been relaying to his team all week.
In February of 2012, with just six players on the roster, including current Corsair Lili Herrera, CR beat No. 11 Siskiyous 77-67 and moved into a first-place tie.
In the final game of the regular season, however, needing a win at home against Shasta to earn a share of the league title, the Corsairs had a let down and lost the game and the crown in one fowl swoop.
This time around, against the same team with practically the same record and ranking, coach Oliveira and his Corsairs are looking to finish the job.
"We've really been focused and working hard to finish the season strong," said Oliveira, whose Corsairs, just like in 2012, are currently riding a five-game win streak after blowing our their past two opponents by 30 points or more.
Another similarity from this season and two years ago is the fact that CR's one GVC loss was a blowout at Siskiyous earlier in the season.
In 2012, CR's worst loss of the year was a 94-61 defeat at Siskiyous, which the Corsairs later avenged at home.
This year, CR's second-worst loss of the year was back on Jan. 16 at Siskiyous when CR was beaten 94-54 (the Corsairs lost to the No. 1 team in the state, Fresno, by 47 points earlier this year).
On Saturday, coach Oliveira and his Corsairs are hoping to exact some revenge once again.
"When we played them at their place, especially in the second half, from an effort standpoint, it was our low-point of the year," Oliveira said. "We did not play with the kind of intensity we need to be successful. But I don't expect that to occur again. No matter what happens, I'm sure that we're going to play with great effort."
Following the women's game, the CR men tip off at 4 p.m. against Siskiyous as the Corsairs will look for back-to-back wins in their final two games to end the regular season.
CR (5-3 in the GVC and 15-9 overall) is firmly planted on the bubble for an at-large postseason bid and will need strong performances the next two games to secure its place.
The Corsairs beat Siskiyous in Weed back on Jan. 16 by a score of 105-99, after Aaron Cloud sparked the CR offense with five 3-pointers in the game, but, on Saturday, to get a win CR will need to tighten up defensively.
Both the women's and men's games will be broadcast live on Access Humboldt, Ch. 8, as well as online at redwoods.edu with play-by-play commentator Tag Wotherspoon, starting approximately 10 minutes before the first tip.

Any Attain IVF patients?
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 05-20-2010 - 10:55am
Hi! I am active on the Infertility Support message board, but I have a specific question regarding IVF patients.
I was in the Attain IVF shared risk program (formerly Integramed)....where you pay in advance and get 3 fresh and 3 frozen cycles. If you don't end up with a baby after that you get 70% of your money back. They have all kinds of qualificiations....like age, fsh, sperm analysis, hsg, etc. Anyway, we were accepted and did my first IVF with them (it was really my 3rd overall) in February 2010. We only got 2 eggs in the ER and transferred both after 3 days. I got pregnant with really high betas. But at the first u/s at 7 weeks, there was no h/b and it was only measuring at 6 weeks. So 1 week later, the u/s showed no change so I had a D&C the next day.
Although I was really upset, I felt comfort in knowing that I had 2 more fresh IVF cycles.
But, the Attain IVF program called me 2 weeks later and decided to remove me from the program. They did not provide me with a reason (their contract says they don't need to tell me a reason). They sent me 70% of my money back. I don't really want the money - just the opportunity to get pregnant again.
So, I have an attorney involved - and we are going to send them a letter asking for reasons why I got removed. But my DH and I suspect that this company probably kicks people out if they don't get pg the first time so that they can minimize their costs. Of course, I have no proof of it.....
which is why I want to know if anyone out there has participated in this program or knows of anyone who has.
Thanks for any information - sorry this is so long.
Me: 37, DH: 41
TTC for 5 years . 1 Ectopic PG at 8 weeks; 3 IVF's – (two BFPs, both ended in m/c ; one BFN); 4 IUI's – all BFN. Hoping to do IVF #4 Summer 2010.
|Thu, 05-20-2010 - 2:05pm
Monica, Sorry to hear about your situation. I am an Attain IVF patient. My 1st fresh cycle (with Attain) was postive but I miscarried soon after. I was successful in my 1st FET (currently 17 weeks pregnant...fingers crossed). They didn't kick me out for FET but not sure what they would have done if I went to my 2nd or 3rd tries. I would be curious to see if anyone else has any experience.

Likelihood: High
Remember how gigantic the iPhone's 3.5-inch touch display seemed when the handset arrived in 2007? Fast-forward five years and a lot has changed. The success of 4- to 5-inch Android phones, particularly Samsung's and HTC's fleet of big-screen models, has made the iPhone's display look puny by comparison. How big will the next-gen iPhone's display be? Rumors abound from numerous sources, most of which predict a screen measuring around 4 inches diagonally--a subtle increase over the iPhone 4S.

Health Winners & Losers: Biovail
Health stocks, although light on news, closed the week on a down note in line with the broader markets.
The Nasdaq and Amex biotechnology indices each closed Friday down 0.9%. Components Amylin (AMLN)and Biogen Idec (BIIB) gave up 1.6% and 2%, respectively.
Trubion (TRBN) said Thursday post close that it extended by one year the research period under its deal with Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, a division of Wyeth (WYE). Under the terms of the extension, Wyeth is responsible for collaboration research funding of roughly $3.2 million in exchange for research services through Dec. 22, 2009. Trubion's shares initially rose, but ended the day down 14 cents, or 2.7%, at $5.14.
Wyeth shares were ended roughly flat at $47.85. The stock is a component of the Amex Pharmaceutical index, which was down 1.3% at 284.77.Fellow component Merck (MRK) said Friday that it met with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to discuss the not-approvable letter that the company received regarding its new-drug application for cholesterol drug MK-0524A, a combination of niacin and Cordaptive. The company said additional safety and efficacy data are required. Merck said the earliest it may be able to file a complete response to the FDA action letter will be 2010, and that the FDA suggested it wait for the results of a study expected to wrap up in January of 2013. The company also said it won't seek approval for its MK-0524B until it completes the response for MK-0524A. Shares fell 47 cents, or 1.3%, to $35.13.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A steamer (North America), babycino or babyccino (Commonwealth, excl. NZ) or fluffy (New Zealand) is a drink of frothed milk but no coffee (hence no caffeine), which is available in some coffeehouses. In North America it often has flavored syrup added, while in Commonwealth countries it is primarily marketed to children[1] (as a coffee-free cappuccino, as the name indicates), and sometimes topped with marshmallows, a chocolate flake, or sprinkles.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Too Hot for Swamp Gas' started by wargunfan, Sep 17, 2013.
Once again, we are not talking about men who have risen to positions of power. We are spotlighting the average Joe who faces discrimination every day in the struggle to advance in their chosen field. They face a climate of political correctness in corporate America just as real as that which prevented women and minorities from advancing in former times.
I have an experience with something along these lines. My first year in law school I was part of the student government and I was assigned to the student seat for the professor hiring council. The council was a 5 member panel with 4 professors and a member of the student government.
That year there were two jobs that came up and we had maybe 10-12 applications. Some of those applications were outstanding in their academic credentials and published work. Both of the candidates that were hired for the positions were voted on unanimously by the 4 faculty members. I voted for one of them and against the other.
The candidates that were hired, ALL of their published material and academic focus was on homosexual rights and advocacy. The faculty positions that they were taking had nothing to do with constitutional law or potential gay rights classes. Those candidates were specifically hired because of their sexual orientation.
One of the two candidates had an excellent academic record and was one of the better qualified candidates. The other......let's just say if it wasn't for the hiring agenda, that individual wouldn't even have made it to the discussion room.
Let's get ready to RUMBLE!!!! In this corner, we have Wargunfan:
In the opposite corner, we have...um...Wargunfan:
To whose favor is it to say that white guys make better insurance salesmen? So the minorities washed out or were scooped up into the management positions you kept turning down. I bet you knew some other white guys turning down management positions, too. But, hey, some guys like the 9-to-5 with no extra added hassles like management, I mean why else turn down the corner office, the power, the prestige?
Oh, yeah, well there is that. Gosh, it must have been hell for you to be able to turn down all those "promotions" and then watch the females and minorities get re-assigned to lower paying jobs. How were you able to suffer through such inequity? :roll:
By earning over a quarter of a million dollars annually. That softened the blow quite a bit. :joecool:
Buy a Honda and you won't have the "service" problem.:laugh:
Jeez that actually surprisingly like the popular TV program list of 2012 that I posted above, minus the American Idol stuff. There are a couple of popular family shows, like Modern Family, but most of the highest ratedr shows of today, like NCIS, Walking Dead, CSI, seem to eschew family dynamics as well.
Maybe the differences aren't as big as we thought?
There were certainly family shows: Father Knows Best, Leave it to Beaver, Donna Reed, Ozzie and Harriet ...
But the networks also went way out of their way to keep relationships to a minimum. Not only did Ben Cartwright's three wives each die after producing a son, if any of the sons became attracted to a woman, you could be sure she'd die by the end of the show.
Look at the 1960s: Beverly Hillbillies, Andy Griffith ... wives have all died. Man from Uncle, Wild Wild West ... just a couple of single guys. All the detective shows ...
Geez ... I guess they were the good ole days. :laugh:
I try not to watch too much tv, so this is probably anecdotal, but I my wife and I have both noticed what seems to be the "white male buffoon" character becoming prevalent in commercials. It may just be the particular shows or stations we watch, but figured I'd chime in on the op.
Like I said, commercials is where I notice it, too.
Indeed. And certainly we still have popular family shows: Modern Family, 2.5 men (though wifeless family), Breaking Bad??, Downton Abbey I guess, Family Guy, but most of the highest rated shows seem to be this detective stuff.
Yes, one wonders how all those white men were able to overcome the long odds against them and arise to dominate positions of prestige and power in nearly every field.
Damn. Going through thousands of TV commercials is a bit above my pay grade, so I'm going to have to leave this one as a cold case, coincidentally one of the rare detective shows without a male lead.
Is this really a new archetype though? I mean, didnt Charlie Chaplin do a bumbling white male, before TV and sound in movies? And I'm assuming he was just picking up on vaudeville tropes too. I mean, if you want to go back far enough (Shakespeare's time, or minstril era), even women and black men were played by white men, they had to cover all the roles.
Anyone who watches television cannot deny the prevalence of "white male baffoons" on both television shows and commercials.
But who the hell cares? Why is this worth getting worked up over?
There are much more legitimate forms of real discrimination against white males that should be called out -- mostly revolving around Affirmative Action.
I just see how Al and Jesse hurt their cause among whites. They're so freakin' quick to claim discrimination, even when it's trivial, incidental, or unprovable, that society tends to ignore them when blacks face real discrimination.
And you know, they are the very ones who are establishing the policies which move women and minorities to the head of the line. I have had conversations with some of them and they will tell you that they are under pressure from advocacy groups to compensate for historical discrimination. Of course the glass ceiling should be removed. Of course Black men who deserve promotions should get them. The workplace should be a meritocracy. I'm saying that White males have been the victims of overcompensation in this area. And I am only one of many.
I think you'd have a better argument if AA had subverted what was previously a merit driven promotion system. Companies have rarely ever used "merit" only as a system of advancement.
Merit should be right up there with ability and experience; not gender or race. The situation was once reversed. If you were a White male you went to the head of the line. This was and is wrong. The current trend of moving women and minorities to the head of the line is just as wrong. The difference is that White males don't have the equivalent of NOW and the NAACP to advocate for them. There are White males in just about any large corporation who have been passed over in order to advance a woman or a minority.
First of all, I think your argument that white people went to the "head of the line" simply because of their race in the past is a little flawed, and overlooks a number of things (most specifically, gender). Second, as far as some white men getting "passed over" as the result of AA policies I guess the obvious response is: so what? If companies value diversity, among other things, not limited to experience or "merit," isnt it their perogative to do so? Moreover, AA makes a convenient scapegoat when you don't get the job, so I'm not sure how many people are actually the "victim" only of AA. The workplace rarely functions as a meritocracy, as almost anyone whe has ever worked for a major employer can attest.

What to Do With Volatile Plug Power Shares
After calculating warrants, employee options, convertible preferred stock, restricted stock and the latest underwriting options, the shares outstanding could approach 200 million. Talk about dilution. Wow.
If Plug Power doesn't demonstrate a clear path to operational profitability when it reports second-quarter earnings on May 14, the easiest path is lower.
Also, if shareholders become spooked that another offering is needed, expect the price to get cut in half once again.
In the meantime, you may want to consider taking some profits off the table. If the earnings report is good, the shares will move slightly higher, but if the company guides at a trajectory of anything less than stellar, it's going to be ugly.At the time of publication, Weinstein had no positions in securities mentioned.

Apple iPod Video 30GB (White)
Posted: 06/05/2007
This is my first ever mp3 player and i have to say it is great. I have tried other mp3 players, such as my friends ones. But i have found this one to be easier to use, its more stylish and has great sound quality.
This ipod has 30gb of space, this is more than enough even for people with tons of music. Why bother dragging 100s of cds around with you when you can just store them on a tony gadget such as this.
You can also store and view videos and images. The quality of the pictures and video is pretty good. :)
Overall this is a great product and worth getting.

At first you might get put of by this game, because lets face it, it is completely different to what we have known and loved about sonic in previous versions of the game. I have to admit this game is rubbish compared to the previous ones. But don't ditch it, it still has some character to it. After a while of getting used to the control it can be quite a fun game, the levels are nice, the graphics are good and the music is ok too.
The game is based on exp and levels to gain, you can unlock levels and add skills to your ring depending on how many points you can use. Thee is alot of artwork and movies to unlock as a bonus feature.
The multiplayer mini games can be pretty fun in a group.
So give this game a chance, rent it before you buy, or try and get a second hand copy if you have the money.

This is a great film, made even better by the hd experience. They have pulled of making a watchable film about a game. Many do not do well, but this is a success in my opinion. The rock "sarge" acts well in the film, and he plays the part well.
The plot is good, and it grabs the game well, i especially like the FPS part of the film, any gaming fan should love this aspect of the film.
Overall a great film that i recommend to anyone into action or games. :)

First of i have to mention, it is definetely best to buy this film in hd dvd, for starter it makes the experience of this film greater. Plus its the reason why i gave it an extra star for the review, otherwise i would of given the film a 3 star rating. The hd experience makes the cars look great and the action seems much better. I have seen this in dvd format too and hd dvd version is better, has more features too, many more features.
Overal the story is predictable but in a good way, this will appeal to people under 25, or into cars in a big way.
Good film!
Toshiba HD-E1 HD DVD Player
Before i had the chance of taking a look at how much of a difference HD DVD is compared to stand alone DVD, i was thinking, oh i know it will look better, but wow was i shocked when i saw it in the flesh, it was 100x better than i was thinking.
My brother has the fast and the furious: tokyo drift on dvd, i watched it the other day and noticed how pixelated it was on my old dvd player. Today when i watched the hd version on my new hd dvd player, the quality is shocking how much of a difference it is. Even looking close up its hard to notice the pixels at all, the quality is so crisp and clean its like the picture really is jumping out at you!
This player is quick, silent, slim, and stylish. HD is the wat forward and this is the perfect addition to anyones home cinema experience.

And the Award Goes to. . .—SherburneJanuary 2007
In November, for the third year in a row, I had the pleasure of judging the DICE Awards. DICE, the Digital Imaging Customer Exchange (www.dicegroup.org, formerly the Indigo Customer Exchange), has been around for more than a decade and just reached the 300-member mark. The group has expanded beyond owners of Indigo presses to owners of any digital press, and secured sponsorships from both Kodak and Xerox in the process.
For me, the DICE Awards are the highlight of the DICE meeting. Users submit items in a number of categories and submissions are judged by a panel of three industry experts on a variety of criteria. This year, there were five categories of entries: Best Personalized Customer Acquisition, Best Personalized Customer Retention, Outstanding Self-Promotion, Best Use of Digital Printing, and Excellence in Digital Printing. Based on the ranking of the judges, a VDP Extraordinaire award was also given to the "Best-of-Show" single entry that best represented the sophistication and power of one-to-one marketing—regardless of the purpose.
My favorite category is always self-promotion. It is exciting to see how enterprising print service providers are using their own technology in creative ways to get their message out. There were 24 entries in this category from 18 companies. They ranged from standard capabilities brochures to calendars, books, posters, holiday cards and postcards.
The winning entry was submitted by Seattle's Revolution Inc., and was by far the most creative entry I have seen in the past three years. It was a board game called "Get Revolution" that is customized for each client and includes their specific business challenges, represented both in the game and in the game pieces, which often represent the customer's key competitors. The game is packaged in a box that looks as though it could have come from Parker Brothers or Hasbro, and includes images of the sales rep and the target customer's logo.
The construction of the game in and of itself is impressive, but the process for deploying it is where the power lies. The process starts with a letter to the customer, is followed up by sending the game to them—minus the board. When the salesperson calls on them in person, he or she then brings the board to complete the process.

I have a `94 caddy deville concourse (32v northstar engine). She turns on but throws alot of white smoke from the mufflers. The spark plugs have a little bit of oil around `em. I think she might need new valve cover gaskets. Also, the pigtail wire from the gas pedal to the throttle body is kind of blocked and clicks everytime i turn the car on and off. I think it she might be accelerated. Could that have something to do with the smoke?

Have you successfully managed to get ltsp to boot automatically into a rdp session?
We have recently moved from thinstation to ltsp.
When a thinstation client was left on for a while with no activity it used to disconnect and bring up a box with the option to reconnect.
Ltsp does not do the above, every 5 mins it reinitiates a connection to the terminal server. This was ok when we had 4 or 5 ltsp clients but now we have 25 the terminal server gets a bit cross when they all keep pestering it to reinitiate their connection.
So I would like to run a shell script on client start up which has a button which says connect, when this button is pressed it runs the rdesktop option and connects to the ts.
I have been trying this for a couple of days but shell scripting isnt my strong point. So Anyone have any sample scripts or any instructions please.
I have done this on solaris with tcl and sunray clients but never done sh script.
Have you successfully managed to get ltsp to boot automatically into a rdp session?

Tip for Improving Homemade Almond Flour
I think I've figured out a way to get our own almond flour a bit finer. I started processing the dry ingredients with the almond flour in my food processor. Mine has a serrated S blade, which I believe does help too.
For example, if I'm making The Chicken Lady's fudge cake, I'll toss the almond flour, cocoa, erythritol, and other dry ingredients into the processor and give it all a whirl until I think I see the almond flour just barely starting to clump. Also, I try to start with cold almond flour with the hopes that will increase processing time.
Alternatively, I convert The Chicken Lady's same fudge cake into brownies. Yum! I replace the eggs and oil with mayonnaise, and I add the almond flour to the mayo, cocoa. and Erythritol and give it a good whirl in the food processor.
Very interesting. I like using the food processor for making
lots of things with almond flour. My bread is very fine in the
crumb. I'll give it a go as I'm going to try making Chicken Lady's
fudge cake very soon.
Great tip.

YO-YO MAâS SILK ROAD ENSEMBLE TOUR RELIES ON DPA MICROPHONES
Grammy Award-Winning Classical Cellist Uses the DPA 4061 and DPA 4088 Microphones for All Performances on the Silk Road Ensemble Tour
Yo-Yo Maâs Audio Engineer Jody Elff relies on DPA Microphonesâ 4088 cardioid headset and 4061 omnidirectional miniature microphones for the Silk Road Ensemble tour.
The Silk Road Ensemble, featuring the Grammy-winning classical cellist Yo-Yo Ma, explores the intersection of a variety of musical traditions, drawing inspiration from the historic Silk Road network of trade routes, where wildly diverse cultures and ideas mingled and evolved. The tour combines Western instruments like the violin, viola, cello, and bass with such Eastern instruments as the shakuhachi, kamanchech, oud, pipa, and sheng.
Elff has been the audio engineer for the Silk Road Ensemble tour for the past five years. In addition to his work with the Silk Road Ensemble, he has worked as an audio engineer for such artists as Hall & Oates, Diana Krall, Smokey Robinson, and Laurie Anderson. The Silk Road Ensemble, touring regularly since 2000, employed DPA mics even before Elff joined. As performers on the tour participate in different combinations from piece to piece, there is a constantly rotating ensemble on stage. As such, providing each musician with a specific cabled-microphone would be impractical and visually chaotic. DPA mics offer a low profile, studio-quality soundâhelping to make the performances shine.
âBy using DPA miniature microphones on wireless systems, we are able to maintain very high quality micing that is also visually elegant,â Elff explains. âThe mics simply attach to the instruments themselves and leave the stage when the piece is over. Additionally, the performance of the various DPA mics is exceptional. The frequency response and dynamic range are fantastic, and the mics reliably deliver an excellent picture of whatever instrument you have them attached to.â
The typical setup for the tour utilizes a combination of up to 14 DPA 4061s and 4088s, all on wireless beltpacks, so that the musicians can appear on and off the stage easily for different pieces throughout the performance. The DPA 4061s are ideal as live and studio microphones for acoustic string instruments. Their neutral sonic character offers great detail and resolution, providing a very natural sound. In addition, they have a very low-noise floor and impressive sensitivity, allowing them to handle high SPLs without distortion. The DPA 4088, used on shakuhachi and sheng, is a miniature head-worn cardioid microphone that provides excellent isolation for live performance environments, even in noisy situations.
âThe DPA mics are so small that theyâre virtually invisible to the audience and the musicians,â says Elff. âThe musicians never have to worry about maintaining a consistent physical relationship to a stand-mounted mic while on stage, freeing them to just pay attention to making good music. Add to that the fact that the mic sounds fantastic and youâve got a winning combination.â
For Elff, the tour has been both exhilarating and challenging. âThe first consideration, always, is to make the musicians feel absolutely comfortable on stage, so they feel free to perform as effortlessly as possible. If the musicians are comfortable, the audience gets a better show,â says Elff. âThe listening environment on stage in a typical performance could be chaotic due to the convergence of such a wide range of instrumental timbres. Carefully using the mics on each instrument to provide both on-stage reinforcement for the musicians via their stage monitors and selective reinforcement for the audience is literally essential to making this kind of contemporary ensemble possible.â

Curious as to how to load the 3D Modeling workspace so that I can access the editing features and whatnot without having to type in the commands. I have seen a few different questions dealing with this issue, they pretty much said to into the "custom user interface", click on the transer tab and then path to the support folder where you would load the "acad.cuix" file and drag the 3D Modeling Workspace over to the left hand side. The issue I'm having is that when I path to the folder with all the different ".cuix" files there isn't a plain "acad.cuix" file to be found and none of the other options offer any sort of 3D Modeling Workspace?
I'm having this same issue. As a workaround, I've created a new workspace '3D Modeling' and in the 'Customize' section I am transferring Ribbon tabs over from 'All Customization Files' to my new one. I'm selecting the ones that seem to fit best; i.e. Home - 3D Basics, Mesh, Surface Modeling, etc.
It would be MUCH easier if there was a cuix file I could load. But it doesn't seem that way for AutoCAD Map 3D 2013.
I think taht an other solution would be to get (and use) CUIX files comming from a standard AutoCAD ...
Bye, Pat
Well from finding other threads about this issue; this blog is helpful geoExpressions blog
However, ACAD Map 2013 is different than 2010. .cuix files can be found in C:\Program Files\Autodesk\AutoCAD Map 2013\UserDataCache\en-us\Support
Also there seems to be some files, including the default file (which is probably why I couldn't find the other ones till now) located here:
Anyway, I know this reply is most likely too late to help OP but I thought I'd post what could be an update to the other threads that talk about the blog.
Okay the most helpful thing I've found is from docs.autodesk.com/MAP/2012/ENU/readme-map.html
Running AutoCAD Map 3D as AutoCAD
You can use the MENU command to run AutoCAD Map 3D as AutoCAD.
To Run AutoCAD Map 3D as AutoCAD:
1. At the Command line, enter MENU.
2. In the Select Customization File dialog box, select acad.CUIX.
Using the CUI command or the 'Workspace Settings' has been a pain. This Menu thing is easy.
One last thing. Sorry for all the posts but it's been frustrating for me figuring out how to customize stuff then I messed it up so I would like to help anyone else if someday they'll be looking for a similar solution.
The two locations I mentioned before each have a Map.cuix. So if you mess up one, just copy it over to the other spot.
CUILOAD is great as is MENU.

Per Diem?
- 0Jun 14, '03 by KevinNI am curious to generally how much more $$ someone gets working per diem over someone who doesn't? Also, do all or most hospitals offer this option?
- 0Jun 14, '03 by 2ndCareerRNMost hospitals I have worked gave premium of appx. 12-18% for per diem. Some hospitals also require you to work a minimum number of shifts, with a weekend or two every month. All you can do is ask.
bobLast edit by 2ndCareerRN on Jun 14, '03
- 0Jun 14, '03 by TweetyIn our hospital it depends on how many hours you sign up for. There is one plan that is almost full time that makes pretty good money, almost $10.00 more than staff. Other plans aren't that much.
Lately though, our census is down and per diem hasn't been getting any work. When they don't work, they don't get paid. No benefits. No person time off to take when canceled. During the busy winter there's plenty of work here.
- 0Jun 14, '03 by SmilingBluEyesI get a 15% differential for being "perdiem".
- 0Jun 14, '03 by ThirdWorldGirlI'm a per diem LVN and it's 60% above the full time LVN's at the hospital I work for.

IT'S OUT! Animator vs. Animation IV Kickstarter.CLICK HERE! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1650065662/animator-vs-animation-iv-animated-short-filmNow the only hurdle is being able to reach all the people that have seen Animator vs. Animation. I counted that my whole series has over 218 million views, but my social network is comparatively very small. So please share this link with your friends!We have until August 11th at midnight! If I don't reach the goal then I won't get any funding, and Animator vs. Animation IV will NOT HAPPEN.Thanks everyone!
I made animations for an iPhone app!This app is going to be big! It's called Stick Texting. Instead of putting smiley faces in your texts, you can put in 3 second stick figure animations. The animations are pretty funny. I put faces, hands, feet, and hair on the stick figures which I haven't done before.CHECK IT OUT HERE!http://www.sticktexting.comGet it and send a Stick Text to your friends! It's only a matter of time before everyone knows about these.Credit goes to Mitch Robiner for heading up the project and coming up with the idea!
