Amores, people. Plural of amor. Love!
Twenty8k - 4/10
One of these "not all it seems" type film which I fell asleep twice watching.
A boy gets gunned down in front of a nightclub and his girlfriend gets killed in a hit and run. Could these two incidents be in any way be connected? Of course they are. Obviously, it ends up being some conspiracy which reaches the higher echelons of power.
The fact I fell asleep twice during this didn't matter. I'm not sure if they were micro-naps as I didn't seem to miss anything much. It didn't matter anyway as it's all explained in full detail at the end.
People get shot, there are drugs, coppers and all the rest of it. I'm not sure if Twenty8k is the name of the gang that controls the drugs in this film or the budget of the film.
I only watched it because it's got Kaya Scodelario in it. She's great but not in it that much. I was awake when she was on.

The Resident Evil films. I'm one of the reasons they keep making them.
For me personally babel suffered tremendously from having the pit in it.

To kill a mocking bird
I have never seen it before and I haven't read the book. Although a lot of people seemed to have it on their curriculum in school not me.
After 45 mins - I actually fell asleep and will need to finish it before giving a full review.
So far though - really not getting this. I know it's supposed to be a masterpiece of cinema. Maybe if I was a Yank that had just lived through that era and was watching it back in 1962.
One thing I realise I detest about old classics is how SHRILL childrens voices sound in them. It's a 'kin travesty.
Will give a score tomorrow when I've finished the whole thing.
Bet you can't wait.
Bless you all.

talking of films of books, i just come back from the Life of PI
The ending still pisses me off, but the last two thirds is just pure great cinema spectacle. Really engrossed by pi and richard parker antics. Beginning, whilst needed, is a bit clunky, but the whole film is def worth a watch.
Moonrise Kingdom. 10/10
Killer Joe. 8/10 (points deducted due to wtf I've been robbed ending)

Pitch perfect. A solid 8/10. It's everything you'd expect it to be.

I'd go along with that rating for Pitch Perfect. Enjoyable film if like that sort of thing.

The Adventures of Tintin
I really enjoyed this, I loved the books as a kid and really liked the way the characters were brought to life. Technically it's superb, fairly predictable but I can't see that they could have done much better with the source material except maybe a bit more of the humour.

V/H/S - Very/Highly/Shit
This film takes the whole concept of Paranormal Activity, makes it mobile, adds a bit of extreme gore in here and there and totally removes any scares. So, this means the film is about as scary as an episode of A Question Of Sport.
The setup in done in such a way that there three (or four, I can't remember) different stories with one person recording events with a VHS camera. So it can throw everything and the kitchen sink into it and copy as many (much superior but still not that good) films as it possibly can.
Out in the woods, a party gone wrong, the webcam stuff, a group sex thing, someone in the room while you are sleeping and burglars in the house. All of these seem to go on forever. (It's six not four! I'm already trying to forget!).
There is one neat idea on the webcam episode which has nothing to do with the scares and involves a hidden tracking device.
The only decent horror film I've seen that uses a documentary/footage style is The Last Exorcism. You're much better off watching that instead.
The Resident Evil films. I'm one of the reasons they keep making them.
Just watched Plague Dogs, a cartoon by the same director as Watership Down also based on a book by Richard Adams. The animation has a similar attention to detail, and Hazel (John Hurt) is now a Jack Russell called Snitter. There are a number of other famous English actors of a certain generation there too, if you keep your ears open for it. To compare it to Watership Down, it's also a tale of man's impact on the widlerness, though this time told via domestic animals, not wild ones. While it's got most of what made Watership Down work, it doesn't have an analogue for rabbit mythology voiced by Michael Hordern, which I miss, and doesn't have as good a soundtrack, but it's definitely worth checking out for anyone who enjoyed the earlier film. 89%

Intimates Line Aerie Gets Real, Unveils "aerie Real" Spring 2014 Campaign Featuring Unretouched Models, Challenging Supermodel Standards
NEW YORK, Jan. 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- aerie takes a bold stance this Spring 2014 by announcing the launch of its "aerie Real" campaign, featuring models of all sizes in unretouched photos. The models show the latest collection of aerie bras, undies and apparel, all while demonstrating that being real and natural is truly sexy and individual differences contribute to a woman's unique identity and beauty.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140117/NY48153 )
The #aerieReal movement is an important benchmark in the evolution of the aerie brand, which has always celebrated its customers' unique spirit and optimism. By challenging supermodel standards, aerie is poised to spark a conversation with consumers about the true meaning of beauty.
"The purpose of 'aerie Real' is to communicate there is no need to retouch beauty, and to give young women of all shapes and sizes the chance to discover amazing styles that work best for them," said Jennifer Foyle , aerie's Chief Merchandising Officer. "We want to help empower young women to be confident in themselves and their bodies."To help young women build their perfect intimates wardrobe, aerie has tapped Fashion Editor Jenny Altman as Style and Fit Expert. Altman will share her intimates category expertise with aerie shoppers, participating in store appearances and consumer fit sessions, as well as offering advice and tips to girls across the country via Twitter and Google+ Hangouts, amongst other online and social channels. "In an industry that promotes an unrealistic fantasy about women's bodies, I have joined aerie for an incredible campaign that celebrates the power and beauty of real women," said Jenny Altman. "We are thrilled to have Jenny come on board with aerie as an incredible resource for our customers and to further spread the message that 'the real you is sexy,'" said Foyle.

Niceville, FL--The Raiders of Northwest Florida State packing up the bus Thursday and heading to Lakeland. The Raiders the co-champs of the Panhandle, making their first trip to state since oh-1 and the first under third year head coach Doug Martin.
As they rode the bus south I spoke with Martin about his team's opener Saturday against Santa Fe, the top ranked team in the state, and the nation.
Doug Martin
NWF State Head Coach
"When you have those kind of settings where you play only once and maybe the only time you play 'em I think it's more important that you take a look at what you do and how you play, as opposed to what, too much about what your opponent does. We know they're good, we know they're talented but we also know if we play the way we're capable of playing we can play with anybody so we'll look foward to that."
Martin says he'll start 8-0 Ryan Crowley in the opener then go with another lefty Matt Lane Sunday. That first game Saturday at four.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder was formally recognized as a mental disorder after the famous Vietnam War, where soldiers appeared to be in shell shock even after they left the war zone, fearfully recalling the trauma of combat, and unable to adjust to life afterwards.
Fearful experiences during natural disasters - tornadoes, tsunami, and earthquake leave victims devastated and prone to PTSD symptoms. Fear for their life and a sense of acute danger during the event gets etched in their memory, haunting them incessantly. Victims are unable to lead a normal life.
Is it necessary to seek medical care?
Traumatic events do cause distress to most of us, but many bounce back from the trauma after a brief period of agony. For some, the memories linger and cause a problem in their day to day functioning. If symptoms last more than a month and begins to affect job performance or normal functioning, then it is time to consult a mental health specialist.

Crab-and-Shrimp Etouffee
Real butter is the key ingredient in this crab-and-shrimp etouffee recipe from Taste of Home. Saute seafood in butter that's peppered with fresh herbs, diced celery and green peppers along with a generous helping of garlic. This dish wouldn't be right, though, without a dash or two of hot sauce. Serve over rice.

I have nothing against cheap gun and own a few myself but the gun that stays with me when I'm on duty is NOT a low end gun like Bushmaster. If pretending they are as good as a Colt makes people feel better about owning a cheap gun then that is a big deal but at the same time they shouldn't present what they think as a fact when it is not.

Todd Clark - Kenosha Festival of Cartooning Guest Speaker For 2014
Todd Clark has been drawing for as long as he can remember, probably the result of carrying a copy of MAD magazine with him at all times as a child…and then later as an adult.
Since he began cartooning full-time in 1990, his cartoons have appeared in magazines ranging from Saturday Evening Post to Diversion to Disney Adventures. He's recently begun selling regularly to the aforementioned MAD, fulfilling a lifelong dream. Besides full-time duties on his own syndicated comic of 15 years, LOLA, Clark also writes jokes for some heavyweight strips including Sherman's Lagoon, Mother Goose and Grimm, Tundra, B.C., Wizard of ID, Baby Blues, Zits and Frank and Ernest, and has in the past contributed on Bizarro and Dennis the Menace. His first illustrated novel for children, The Ice Cream Kid, is due out next May, published by Universal's AMP! Books For Kids.

Scott Stantis - Kenosha Festival of Cartooning Guest Speaker For 2014
Scott Stantis joined the staff of the Chicago Tribune in 2009. Completing a sojourn that began at his birth in Kennedy era San Diego to a Chicago native television executive and a former concert pianist. His Mad Men childhood consisted of learning to make cocktails for his parents and their friends as well as junior and senior High school in Madison, Wisconsin.
Returning to California in the late 70's in time for the AIDS outbreak Scott attended college where, as a pre-law major, he fell in love with cartooning and his wife.
Since then Scott has worked at numerous newspapers, (like The Orange County Register, The Commercial Appeal in Memphis, Tennessee, The Arizona Republic and The Birmingham News), and created a trio of internationally syndicated comic strips. (The middle one, The Buckets, had a gag chosen as one of the funniest cartoons of the century).
Scott's editorial cartoons are syndicated to over 400 newspapers around the world. They have appeared in such varied places as Newsweek, US News and World Reports, Nightline and Guns & Ammo.
His current comic strip, Prickly City, was launched in 2004 and appears in over 120 newspapers.

Historic Animation On Display!!
Historic Animation Restored and On Display at The Kenosha Public Museum.
As part of the gallery show "More Than Funny 2" the museum is pleased to present the first showing in 99 years of "The Stolen Dream" by Andy Hettinger.
100 years ago Chicago was a major center for the invention of animated films. The first series of cartoons to feature a recurring character was not Mickey Mouse or Felix the Cat but a character called "Old Doc Yak". Based on a Chicago Tribune comic strip by Wisconsin cartoonist Sydney Smith (best known for his other comic strip "The Gumps") Old Doc Yak was featured in 18 animated films.
Andy Hettinger was a talented cartoonist working in Chicago shortly after the turn of the Twentieth Century who assisted Smith on some of the Doc Yak animations. Hettinger also produced two animations of his own based on his Amos Roach comic – a strip that ran in the McHenry Illinois Plain Dealer.
All of the films were animated on paper, a process that was also being used by New York Animator J.R. Bray. Bray obtained a patent for the process and all other animators were ordered to destroy their films. It is believed that all of the Chicago animations produced before 1915 were destroyed due to this patent fight.
Hettinger died tragically from septicemia in 1916 and, as a result, the drawings for his animation "The Stolen Dream" escaped destruction. The images for 7.5 minutes of this film survived, along with the art for both of his cartoons. All of which were obtained by collector George Hagenauer. George is working to restore both of Hettinger's films from the existing art and hopes to have them completed by the film's 100th anniversary in 2015.

Extra Festival Website
For now we are keeping this, the official website of the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning.
- A) We have the domain name pointed here
- B) People have it bookmarked and can find it easily
- C) It is an easy site from which to do social media sharing
- D) We have our funding button all set up here and it is easy to make a donation.
BUT there are some ways in which this site is limited, especially the number of stand alone pages we can publish.
So we have created a support site to handle some of the overflow. You can access the new site either by clicking here or clicking on any of the guest speaker pictures in the right hand sidebar.
If, after you have visited the other site, you wish to come back to this one, click on either the giant festival logo or the header "News".

Opening This Weekend - Our Second Gallery Show!
Kenosha, WI (July 29, 2014) – "The Oddly Compelling Art of Denis Kitchen" is a new art exhibit featuring more than 60 pieces of original comic art by Denis Kitchen, Robert Crumb, Al Capp and Will Eisner. The exhibit will run in the Fine Arts Gallery at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside from August 1st through October 10th. There will be a catered reception, as well as presentations by artist Denis Kitchen and author Michael Schumacher, from 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. on Thursday, September 25th as the opening event of the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning.
Racine native Denis Kitchen is both a renowned publisher of underground comics, via his company "Kitchen Sink Press", and an established artist in his own right. A tireless champion of creator's rights, Mr. Kitchen is also the founder of the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund. As a partner in "Kitchen, Lind & Associates" he acts as both an agent and book packager for the Estates of Harvey Kurtzman, Will Eisner and Al Capp to name just a few. Also a prolific author and editor, he partnered with Kenosha author Michael Schumacher on the critically acclaimed biography of Al Capp "Al Capp: A Life To the Contrary."
This exhibit focuses not only on the art of Denis Kitchen but also features work by perhaps one of his most renowned fellow underground comic artists, Robert Crumb. Al Capp is also represented, due to Kitchen's involvement with the Capp Estate and his authorship of the Capp biography. Finally, the work of Will Eisner is represented in recognition of both Eisner's iconic stature in the world of comics and also the fact that he too has been the subject of a biography by author Michael Schumacher – "Will Eisner: A Dreamer's Life in Comics".
Conceived by UW Parkside Gallery Director Amy Misurelli Sorensen and Kenosha Festival of Cartooning Director Anne Morse Hambrock, the exhibit presents three distinctive, but related, fields of graphic narrative and humorous illustration: Syndicated newspaper comics, Graphic Memoir, and Underground Comics. Each of the artists represented in this exhibit had their own singular experiences with censorship and freedom of expression, a theme that unifies them despite their various styles and the differing constraints of the businesses that published their work.
The Kenosha Festival of Cartooning
"The Oddly Compelling Art of Denis Kitchen" is presented at the Parkside Fine Arts Gallery in partnership with the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning. The Festival, founded in 2011 by Anne Morse-Hambrock, is a three day event which includes gallery shows of original comic art, presentations and panel discussions by renowned professional cartoonists, outreach to local schools, and a charity auction of original comic art and ephemera. Events take place primarily at the University of Wisconsin's Parkside Campus and the Kenosha Public Museum (also currently host to a fabulous show of original cartoon art). A full list of festival guest speakers, and the events open to the public, can be found at kenoshacartoonfest.com All Kenosha Festival of Cartooning events are free and open to the public.

Thank You National Cartoonists Society Foundation!
We are now at liberty to announce that the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning has received a generous grant from the National Cartoonists Society Foundation!
NCS Foundation President Steve McGarry and The Foundation Board of Directors have graciously agreed to give Festival 2014 a grant of financial support which, when added to our successful Indiegogo fundraising drive, will cover 95% of our projected expenses!
The foundation was also a generous underwriter of Festival 2012 and we cannot thank them enough for believing in this event and our mission to connect cartoonists to fans with live presentations and gallery shows.
The foundation will also, once again, be sponsoring a charity auction to be held on Saturday, September 27th from 6:00-8:00 p.m. Proceeds will benefit the local children's hospital clinic and also a school for children with autism and other learning challenges. Details of the auction and a preview of the items up for bidding will be posted by August.

Thank you again NCSF!!!!

Lincoln Peirce: Kenosha Festival of Cartooning Guest Speaker for 2014
Please join us as we welcome Lincoln Peirce when he appears next September at the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning running from Thursday, September 25th through Saturday, September 27th of 2014.
"Some people call it a kids' strip," says Lincoln Peirce of Big Nate, the comic feature he created in 1991, "and some don't. To me, the labels aren't important. What really matters is that it's funny."
Big Nate follows the adventures of Nate Wright, an energetic sixth-grade boy whose larger-than-life personality often lands him in hot water with his classmates and teachers. "Nate's school life is at the center of the strip," Lincoln says. "And schools can be hilarious places." Big Nate currently appears in over 300 newspapers, and in 2013 ranked among the ten most-read features on gocomics.com
In 2010, Lincoln's characters reached a whole new audience when he began writing and illustrating Big Nate novels for children. Each of the six titles has been a New York Times Bestseller; the seventh book in the series, Big Nate Lives It Up, will be published by Harper Collins in March of 2015. There have also been numerous compilations from Andrews McMeel, including Big Nate: I Can't Take It! And Big Nate: Great Minds Think Alike.
When he isn't cartooning, Lincoln hosts a weekly radio show devoted to vintage country music. He also plays ice hockey, enjoys cryptic crossword puzzles, and doesn't understand his computer. He and his wife Jessica live in the great little city of Portland, Maine, and have two children.
Stay tuned to this official festival site as we continue to profile our guest speakers!

Terri Libenson - Kenosha Festival of Cartooning Guest Speaker for 2014
Please join us as we welcome Terri Libenson when she appears next September at the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning running from Thursday, September 25th through Saturday, September 27th of 2014.
Terri's cartooning career began as a child when she started vandalizing her brother's Archie comic books by rewriting the dialog (luckily, she respected his MAD magazines enough to leave them alone).
Later, she moved on to some original work. Terri has been writing and illustrating humorous cards for American Greetings for over 20 years. She has won numerous awards for her work and even created a successful, long-running card line called "Skitch." She has also written online cards for AmericanGreetings.com, Egreetings.com, and BlueMountainArts.com.
In 2000, Terri got back to her comic roots and developed "Got a Life," a weekly syndicated strip with King Features. It ran for two years before she decided to try her hand at a daily comic feature. Her dream came true when the internationally syndicated "Pajama Diaries" launched in 2006. It details the daily happenings of Terri's alter ego, Jill Kaplan, a contemporary working mom trying to juggle it all -- work life, family life, and sex life (or lack thereof) -- without going bonkers.
Terri has two book collections: "The Pajama Diaries: Déjà To-Do" (2011) and "The Pajama Diaries: Having it all…and no time to do it" (2013). She also has a third comic book-style collection called, "The Pajama Diaries: Bat-Zilla" (2013), which features a recent Bat Mitzvah story line and Jewish holiday-themed strips.
Born and raised in Wilkes-Barre, PA, a much saner Terri currently lives with her husband and two daughters in Cleveland, OH.
Terri's Strip The Pajama Diaries has just been nominated for Best Newpaper Comic Strip of 2013 by the National Cartoonists Society.
Stay tuned to this official festival site as we continue to profile our guest speakers.

Jeff Keane - Kenosha Festival of Cartooning Guest Speaker for 2014
Please join us as we welcome Jeff Keane when he appears next September at the Kenosha Festival of Cartooning running from Thursday, September 25th through Saturday, September 27th of 2014.
Jeff was born in 1958. Two years later, his father Bil Keane started chasing him around begging him to do something funny. So began his career as a cartoon model for "The Family Circus." He now authors that comic, which appears daily in over 1,400 newspapers worldwide, making it the most widely syndicated panel in America today.
Raised in Arizona, Keane moved to California to attend the University of Southern California where in 1980 he received his BFA in Drama. After graduation, in an attempt to have a freer schedule for auditions, etc., he returned to his cartoon roots and began to assist on the feature. Jeff started out just answering mail and compiling books but, through years of his father's guidance, has taken over the feature and is responsible for all aspects of creating the daily cartoon (writing, penciling, inking, coloring).
In 2007 Keane was elected President of the National Cartoonists Society. The NCS (founded in 1946) is recognized as the world's premier organization of professional cartoonists. He was re-elected in 2009 (becoming only the fourth two-term president in the NCS's history). Along with a group of his NCS colleagues, Keane has done numerous trips with the USO visiting our troops in hospitals and military bases throughout the world (including both Iraq and Afghanistan).
Jeff and his wife Melinda live in Laguna Hills where they created three cartoon characters of their own (Spencer, Matilda and Olivia). Keane now chases his kids around begging them to do something funny. So "The Family Circus" keeps going around in circles.
Stay tuned to this official festival site as we continue to profile our guest speakers.

Lately i've noticed (like the past day) that i've been urinating a lot less than i usually do despite drinking the same amount of water. I've heard that too much protein (as in that of a bodybuilder) can lead to kidney stones. Over the past week i have also been noticing pain in the hips and around the pelvis. My question is am i in the process of passing a kidney stone?? I notice a slight burning when urinating, no blood in the urine, and no fever or anything like that.

Thank you very much.
Thanks!!. Rf2 runs perfect on my PC with those settings. (Windows 7, FX6300 (no OC), 8gb ram, 650 ti boost)
Great work. Cars are a lot of fun.
Reiza's tracks are done by Alex Sawczuk, who also made Lonch Drummond if i'm not mistaken, so i suppose is in charge of doing this track on rf2?
I hope this mean Reiza's Stock Car...
¿Setting 50% on rain chances wil do the trick?
BTCC. Cars of this season could be awesome to make a league with. Classic 90's BTCC cars would be welcome too.
Tracks load faster, engine looks better and so on. Nvidia inspector helps a lot too. Today i can say i'm satisfied with graphics engine, but of course i don't mind more improvements here and there...
Looks so interesting.
I'm really tired of same old tracks here and there, i didn't know about this one.
Add Nazareth to the "pack", by VLM's ethone, really nice track:
PD: and Texas.
Reeding myself i found one more reason why i don't like ACorsa, it has all those tracks...:D
I love reverse tracks. I really enjoyed Race07 ones.
This. And Lime Rock.
Then i must say i really don't like Spa. I hate Eau Rouge. Awesome track and i love see real racing there but in sims...no, thanks.
Actual Silverstone, 2010 Silverstone,...
"It's a rf1 mod" is the typical nonsense i hear about GSC.
It's a great SIM by its own and it has some of the best cars ever made into a SIM: Stock Car, Formula 3/Classic/Retro/V12/Reiza and Mini,...
If money it's not a problem: go for both, no question about it. If is a problem...i would buy GSC now and then i would start saving money for buying Rfactor 2. In my opinion they are the best sims in...
My first love was Rally sims on PC: Colin Mcrae 1&2, Pro Rally 2001, Mobil 1 RC...never get into RBR until some years ago, when i joined a couple of championships with french mod.
Then TOCA RACE...
Worth watching, is in spanish but easy to follow:
My favourites are Croft, Texas, Bahrain and Symmons Plain.
Then, i like Putnam, Sebring, Poznan, Top Gear track, Le Mans, Lonch Drummod, Thruxton, Nazareth, Carolina, Nords...
I agree...
I don't think i'm negative about it, i think more of "realistic". There is no culture on sim community about buying series or mods and that's a fact. Personally, i like the idea. Do i want to be a...
I'm really sad nobody mention the Skip Barber. Is one of the most fun cars i've run in years, along with Reiza Stock Car and F.Classic.
If groups like VLM, team Enduracers, Historix team, DRM team, VLN...or even Reiza starts to develop "professional" mods/series to Rfactor 2....hummm. But we come from a time where every single...
Nordschleife i guess...
Well, you ask for tracks.
If you ask for the best of the best, of course there are 5-6 between that list, and more to come, but all the tracks that i mentioned are good quality, not crappy...
There are a lot of tracks already. Search for those that are very good (in my opinion):
Croft, Putnam Park and Poznan by feels 3
Mid-Ohio, Sebring, Nazareth and Lemans by VLM
Really? I've been watching BTCC since 2009 and this behaviour looks strange to me. Even in Knockhill the cars dind't flip that much.
Based in my personal perception of course.
Motion blur is the first thing i switch off in every game i ever played.
The video speaks for itself and it is clear that is something wrong with FFB, in my opinion.
My reason of posting this video? We are talking about this.
Much faster track load.
I do a lot of testing with differentes conditiones and often i enter/exit a track to change them. And every load takes ages, especially first one of course, but the rest...
Rfactor 1 have a huge amount of awesome fictional tracks. In my personal opinion, the sim wouldn't be the same without them:
The Edge
NZ Icons
Vitus Parc
Old Ring
Last bunch of screenshots on this page are really awesome.
Any explanation for those behaviors?
Alex Sawczuk did a pretty good job in track surface on Game Stock Car tracks. Really impresive and those are not laser scanned as far is a know.
Two videos regarding rollovers and ffb:
Mills too.
There's something wrong. I am trying to imagine actual ISI Civic in Knockhill, for example, and that could be madness.
That could be great. Thruxton it's a good circuit too, there's a quite nice version for Rfactor 1 and i really like it.
In fact i made (collect) myself a BTCC trackpack for Rfactor 1 not so long...
Yes, is awesome. And having the Honda in a modern sim, it makes me so so happy.
Tim, Is there a realistic chance of having more BTCC modern cars/tracks in Rfactor 2?
I hope that Honda Civic...
PD: what a great year by the way. If anyone it's non familiar with this competition, try to check out this year's review (several hours). And at...
I have XP on a secondary PC. I loved it like the first day :)
But Win7 is a goddamn great OS. I buyed Win8 update and i like it, but it have problems with many games, not exactly compatibility...
Same here. I not buyed just for Rfactor 2 but was one of the bigger reasons. Really desapointed.
If i could mix the best things of GSC2013 with the best things of Rfactor 2, i would be happy.
It was worth, this mod is outstanding.
Good to hear.
Honestly i like that kind of threads too, and this being myself a "great" critic about Rfactor 2 development (the more you like a thing...
I really want this or some kind of wiki. With all the options of the settings menu explained.
-Reduce time when loading a track and/or when you enter a server with a few players. It takes a looooooooong time (and i have an SSD).
-Increase general performance.
-New and customizable (size...
Rfactor 3
You lose...Perfect!
First love: Pc Rally games...
There was a "golden era" many years ago: Colin Mcrae I&II, Mobil 1 RC (my favourite), Pro Rally 2001, Rally Trophy, Xpand Rally, RBR...
Online Rfactor and RFT08...
Excuse my poor english:
I don't know. Much many of the things said in this thread are long time suggestions. I'm sure they're gonna read all and pay attention, but i'm not so sure if they can...

Print the wrapper templates on a color printer. There are two templates per page, so count how many cupcakes you'll be serving and divide by 2. Cut out the templates along the outlines and hold the ends together with your fingers to measure the size of your cupcakes. Secure with tape or glue stick and you're done. For fancier wrappers, you may want to cut with scalloped or decorative edge scissors.

Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013 - page 27
Anyone on here applying to direct entry MSN programs that begin in summer or fall of 2013? I think I have finalized my list of programs to apply to, and I am beginning to get everything together to start applying this... Read More
- 0Nov 1, '12 by rainkissedleavesOkay I have a dilemma!
I'm not sure if I should apply to OHSU for mental health nurse practitioner. I am retaking the GRE in late Jan but the application deadline for OHSU is Jan 4th. My scores were not too great the first time but I have As in all my pre-reqs, stellar recommendations and a pretty good essay. Should I give it a shot or not apply at all? My GRE scores according to the OHSU website don't seem too competitive.
- 0Nov 1, '12 by kdiemHey KritKat! I'm applying to OHSU's midwifery program and I was totally under the impression the application was due Dec 1st like most of the later schools. I was planning to submit it this week anyhow but I just rechecked the website and you're right! I actually did not meet the suggested competitive verbal score, but I did for the math and writing portion. So I emailed the school, and they said that all applicants will be reviewed fairly regardless of their GRE score. So I'm going to give it a shot! Also in case anyone was wondering, interviews are offered in February and results by March. So OHSU is a bit pushed back compared to all the other schools, which makes sense considering their deadline is early January. I tried to look up the stats page they had uploaded on their website... but could not find it (I find it hard to navigate their website). However, I do remember they have a very low acceptance rate. They admit less than 60 students or so for the direct entry program I believe. Correct me if you know the real info though!
- 0Nov 2, '12 by the healer's artI purposely did not apply to places that required the TEAS. Ick!
- 0Nov 3, '12 by soulshine101I'm taking the TEAS in November. Yikes, scared. Although some of the local programs only require a 45% to be considered
- 0Nov 3, '12 by rainkissedleavesHey guys,
For those who are applying to UCSF especially-
Yesterday the Dean of School of Nursing from UCSF had a good 1.5 hour evening with my friends and I (connections ) and I got a lot of useful information from him regarding the direct entry program. If you guys have any particular questions - PM/comment on here and I would love to fill you in with the answers (if I have them).
Thanks and have a good weekend!
- 0Nov 3, '12 by kdiemHello rainkissedleaves! That must have been an awesome talk you had. I bet you're application will definitely receive a closer look, you're so lucky Was there anything that seemed important or good for applicants to know? Any generalized information regarding their program? UCSF would be such an amazing school to attend!
- 0Nov 3, '12 by rainkissedleavesHey kdiem- its Kritkat!! I just changed my screen name to rainkissedleaves
And unfortunately I am not applying to UCSF. I don't wish to stay in the Bay Area.
Let's see- the main points
> He strongly suggested to not apply to CNL programs (some schools give generic masters with CNL degrees) because its just not the same as NP and CNS. This one got me! I removed Millikin and Rush from my list of schools. CNL job description that he provided us was so basic that it was hardly any direct patient contact. Its mostly management and paperwork (something personally I am not looking for). Unless CNL is really is something you would like to be go for it! But NP and CNS are very different job descriptions.
> GRE is important. Very important when applying to UCSF. Yes, of course they look at the overall application but having a strong GRE score is crucial to be competitive (155 V and Q; 4 written).
> GPA- be at least at minimum a B average student.
> They overall look for empathy in the applicant's portfolio- which reflects via your essays and the extra curricular.
In addition, we talked about the basic such as DNP programs and their need, things not to do in your application (incomplete app and not so strong recommendations etc), his personal life (time management), his background and history in nursing (which was VERY fascinating and inspiring).
Hope this helps!Last edit by rainkissedleaves on Nov 3, '12
- 0Nov 4, '12 by kdiemHi rainkissedleaves/kritkat! Thanks so much for the information. I didn't apply to UCLA (although I would love to go to school in socal) because they only offered the CNL degree. I was really really tempted though. I am so sad to hear that they emphasize the GREs that much That's probably the weakest aspect of my application. I think I have great letter of recs (one from a midwife that works and teaches at UCSF) so I'm hoping that will allow UCSF to consider my application. I guess we'll see! About one month until they start giving out responses... I think? I think last cycle was around the beginning of December too for interview offers.

Daily iPhone App: LostStar Tactics does turn-based strategy right
LostStar Tactics is a brand new game from developer James Pawliuk, and it features one of my favorite types of gameplay. It's a turn-based strategy RPG title, so the goal here is to take a series of characters through a run of battles, controlling their movement and actions from turn to turn. There's lots of fun depth and complexity here -- each character's action is controlled by a deck of cards, and leveling up and completing matches provides more actions and more cards to play with.
The difficulty curve is well-done as well -- the game starts off very easy, but each level has quite a few difficulty levels to explore through, and there are lots of options for progression of your various troops. The interface can be a little confusing (and unfortunately this app is iPhone only for now, though it would really benefit from the iPad's larger screen, I think), but the game is a lot of fun, especially if you're a fan of turn-based strategy. LostStar Tactics is available for $1.99 right now.

|1 Shore length is not a well-defined measure.
West Lake (Vietnamese: Hồ Tây) is a freshwater lake in the center of Hanoi, Vietnam. With a shore length of 17 km (about 10.6 miles), this is the largest lake of the capital and a popular place for recreation with many surrounding gardens, hotels and villas. A small part of West Lake is divided by Thanh Nien road to form Trúc Bạch Lake. One district of Hanoi is named after the lake, Tây Hồ District.
West Lake was created from a curved part of Red River and appeared in several Vietnamese legends. One legend suggests that West Lake was shaped after the battle between Lạc Long Quân and a nine-tailed fox spirit, that's why the lake was once called "Fox Corpse Swamp" (Đầm Xác Cáo). Another folk story claimed that original name of the lake is "Golden Buffalo Lake" (Hồ Trâu Vàng, or Han Viet: Hồ Kim Ngưu) because it was formed from struggle of a buffalo after the disappearance of her calf. In the 11th century, the lake was named "Foggy Lake" (Han Viet: Hồ Dâm Đàm) from its misty condition and ultimately its name was changed to "West Lake" in 1573 to avoid the given name of king Lê Thế Tông which was Duy Đàm.
West Lake is bordered with many significant places in history of Hanoi and Vietnam. Trấn Quốc Pagoda, oldest pagoda in Vietnam,[1] was built in the 6th century by Lý Nam Đế and now locates on a small island in the middle of the lake. Near Tran Quoc Pagoda is Quán Thánh Temple, one of the Four Sacred Temples of ancient Hanoi (Vietnamese: Tứ trấn Thăng Long). Chu Van An High School, one of the oldest high schools in Vietnam, also locates close to the lake.
Recreation activities[edit]
As Hanoi's largest lake, located right in the center of Hanoi, West Lake is rammed with many gardens, hotels, restaurants and other entertainment centers. For this reason, the real estate price of areas near West Lake is staggering[1] and the surrounding quarters are often full with imposingly large edifices occupied by rich Vietnamese people and ex-pats.

I love Hot Topic. It's the only place I can go to that holds something awesome from Doctor Who and Black Butler. (But I wish they had the Last of Us and Hannibal stuff too.) But, I am on the fence with their eyeliner.
I got the pencil that is purple with glitter at half price. There wasn't too much glitter in it, but I didn't care. I wanted the purple eyeliner in the first place to bring out the green in my brown eyes, so it didn't matter if it did or didn't. There wasn't much pigmentation to it, yet I still found the color pretty on me.
Overall, even though I said I wouldn't repurchase, maybe I would. Once again, I had a neutral experience with this.

This was one of the first eyeliners that I used and I FREAKING LOVED IT! I was pretty saddened when it was discontinued. It was a great beginner liner and I would totally continue to use it of it was made. The packaging was really cute too, it had a little cute skull on it which really caught my attention in the fist place other than the design it had a basic pencil form. It cost like 1.99 - 2.99 which was a great price.

Age: 18 & Under Skin: Combination, Olive Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Brown
This was the first eyeliner I ever used. It's a pretty good price when you're just starting out with makeup, it's easy to use. You do need to sharpen it often which is kind of annoying, it's hard to get a good line when it's not sharp. It does smudge like crazy however which is annoying especially after a long day. When I first wake up it won't even go on if my eyes are a bit water. I put it on my waterline and even if my eyes arent watery it tends to smudge away. I've also used it in purple which stained my eyelids pink after I took it off even after scrubbing for 20 minutes, so I'd only reccomend getting it in black. Still, it's a good price and good for if you're just beginning makeup or need to apply quickly before going somewhere.

Age: 36-43 Skin: Normal, Medium Hair: Brunette Eyes: Green
I got the black and purple glitter eyeliners and LOVE! It's a very soft pencil so glides on easily, much better than loads of others I've tried. I think it's best described as a gel in pencil form. I only need one quick swipe in my waterline and this has def performed that best for me. I don't really see much glitter so that would be the only downside. I haven't had a problem with it running but I do use a lid primer and makeup setting spray so maybe that would help others with that problem.

Age: 18 & Under Skin: Oily, Fair, Cool Hair: Brown, Curly, Medium Eyes: Green
For something so cheap, I didn't expect much. I mean, my favorite eyeliner is a gel, and it's about 5 dollars. (Wet N Wild) So, at 2 bucks, I decided to at least try it. I loved Hot Topic, and I desperately tried to have it work for me. But it was too smudgy and just didn't dry. I tried it on my upper eyelids (for that raccoon look we all LOVE!) and it made me look like someone punched me in the eye at the end of the day.
On my waterline, it lasted 5 minutes, before I became a panda bear. Overall, cheap, good for teens on a budget, but save up a little more and get something a bit better. I will say this though, for unusual colors (I use those for my lips when I want a fun shock!) it's the best place to go. Because it's so smudgy as an eyeliner, it's not as drying as a lipliner. So I fill in my lips with blue, or green, or orange, and put clear gloss on top, and voila!
Angsty, attention needing, teenage dream accomplished! Don't depend on these, there is MUCH better. But if I need a good halloween look, I'll look into these (just not the black!)

i always like using these because of how pretty they are. they're much cuter than your average black pencil! i usually buy these in the black glitter, even though sometimes the glitters get into your eye or scratches a little. it doesn't last too long on me, but its an affordable eyeliner that i always end up going back to.

This was the first eyeliner I used on myself. Not long lasting, smudged very easily. I had it in Black, Black Glitter, Red, Purple Glitter, Green, and Teal. The red was the only one I really liked and worked well.

This eyeliner cost me $1.99 and it is awesome! I actually came accross this when i was looking through my makeup stash, couldn't remember where i got it or anything, but decided since it was a bright blue shade i would use it to go with my blue shirt i was wearing that day. Anyway..it looked beautiful! So pretty, so easy to apply, didn't tug at my eye at all, and then i looked down at the brand and it said Hot Topic. I was amazed because i knew instantly that this was a cheap eyeliner. Later that day i was at the mall (where i work) and dropped into Hot Topic for the first time in years, and found the makeup area (didn't even know they had a makeup area!) and there was a bunch of these eyeliners in all different colors. I bought 5 of them!
BOTTOM LINE: this eyeliner is amazing, for the price you cannot beat it, highly reccommended!

I was actually really surprised by how good this eyeliner is.
It doesn't smudges, or irritate my eyes at all.
And, it doesn't hurt when I apply it to my waterline.
Plus the pencil itself is really cute.
I'll have to get some more next time I go to hot topic.
It's great, I totally recommend it .

You probably need to find the finalise or close option in your dvd recorders menu to finish the disc for playback in other players.
Hi all, i know i am probably having a blonde moment here but i just got myself a DVD recorder to transfer all the old legacy vids onto DVD so i dont have to keep sorting the 'video dont work' only to discover the tape was made 1893!
anyway, got myself a little samsung r149 and a load of sony DVD-R's and started recording. after the first one i tested that all was ok and it plays back ok on the samsung however, if i try and play it on any of the laptops (acer aspire, dell latituse's) the disk isn't recognised.
any clue's? i am wondering whether the DVD-r isn't compatable but as it didly squat about this sort of thing i thought i would ask the experts.
You probably need to find the finalise or close option in your dvd recorders menu to finish the disc for playback in other players.
Have you dvd reading software on the laptops?
Also finalize the dvds, its an option on the recorder.

BTW my dads better than your dad.
now now children
we use powerdvd here and it says no disk in the drive. the recorder did do some finishing thing so i'll check that out and see whats what.
any ideas if it all looks ok?
I've often had issues with "home made" DVDs and laptop DVD drives - I fear it might just be One Of Those Things.
If it is an older laptop your DVD drive may not support the DVD-R disk format, you may have to try burning them to a DVD+R disk if your burner is capable. DVD+R has better error correction anyway.
thanks my children!
i have discovered there is a manual finalising option which i hadn't done Derrrrrr!
that seems top have fixed it, although i will go for the DVD+R option in future - thanks SYNACK.
