In a gadget world dominated by black, white, and silver, it's always refreshing to come across colorful tech. Earbud manufacturers already offer every color of the rainbow, but finding funky full-size models is more challenging. Skullcandy is a notable exception, and now more companies are joining the fray. Hot on the heels of the Monster Beats by Dr. Dre headphones are the slightly similar Phiaton MS 400 Moderna Series headphones, another cushy red and black pair that retails for $249. They may not be as fashion-forward as Dr. Dre's, but that doesn't mean they won't garner some compliments from passersby.

Utah and California Railway Co. _ Replying to yours of____ Salt Lake City, Utah, July 15,1896. Mr. R. C. Lund, Director U, & C. Ry., Salt Lake. Dear Sir:— The side stakes on the coal branch will all be set from the coal mines down to Cedar City by Saturday--15th. Unless there is some other work for the engineer corps which has been at work there, the men had better be laid off. In this connection I would like to call your attention to the terms on which the Pioneer Square was provisionally granted to the Utah & Pacific Improvement Co. The first condition was that at the end of 90 days (which would be June 10th, 1896) the company was to have 10 miles of grade under construction. At that date the Salt Lake & Pacific Ry. had 10 miles of road cross sectioned, had let a grading contract for the 10 miles and had a little over 4 miles of grade completed. The grading force has since been withdrawn. The second condition was that at the end of six months (which would be Sept. 12, 1396) the company was to have 50 miles of road-bed completed. It is a physical impossibility to do this on the Salt Lake & Pacific Ry., but it can be readily done on the Utah & California, from Milford south, if the matter is taken in hand at once. The line as located to Cedar City and Kanarra leaves the old grade of the 0. S. L. & U. N. Ry. near Sulphur Springs, 35 miles from Milford. The exact distances are: RC.L.--2 Miles from Sulphur Miles from Mil¬ford. Sulphur Junction...................... 0 35,1 South Line S. 22, T 34 S, R 13 W, . . .. 14.9 50.0 Stone House,First water in Iron - Springs Creek.......... 19.9 55,0 Iron Springs Pass......................22.4 57.5 Kanarra Junction...................... 24.2 59.3 Cedar City, Main St................. 32.0 67.1 Porks of Coal Creek,East & South Porks 40.4 75.5 The 35 miles of old grade can be surfaced up (according to Le Prohon's estimate) for $200 per mile, or $7,000 . There are 12 small pile trestle openings on the 35 miles which originally required 2,618 lineal feet of piling and 63,000 ft. B. M. of lumber. Most of them were finished in 1890, but I understand the railroad officials removed all the lumber when the grade was abandoned, and teamsters and travellers have chopped down a great many of the piles. They could be easily replaced. The openings for the 12 trestles aggregated 432 lin. ft., and trestle of that kind complete is worth about $7.00 per lineal ft. or $3,024 for the whole. If this 35 miles was put inti shape, the first question would be whether the additional 15 miles necessary to complete the 50 mile di¬vision should be finished on the line toward Pioche or the line toward Cedar City. The former would be the cheaper as the grading could be done for $200 per mile, and there are only 3 small trestles, which could be put in for $500. The 15 miles toward Cedar City has no trestle but has 76,585 yds of earth work in it, which, at 8 cts would aggregate $6126 or about $400 per mile. R. C. L. ---3 If it is decided to put this 50 miles into shape to meet the re¬quirements of the Pioneer Square donation, there are just 59 days left in which to complete the work, and the engineer corps should be moved to Milford at once to set the grade stakes, and make out the bills of timber and piles required for the trestles. Very respectfully, H.M. MCartney Chief Engineer.

ITF England held it's second ever Umpires Course on Sunday 26th January 2014 at the Royal Masonic Girls School in Rickmansworth. The session was conducted by Mr. Matt Gibb and Mr. Ken Chesterman, overseen by Master Anderson. The purpose of the course was to give the 43 participants a chance to qualify for either their Class 'B' or Class 'C' Umpires Certificate.
The one-day course ran from 10am until 5pm and consisted of a mixture of a Powerpoint presentation, Q&A and practical work. Mr. Gibb went through the rules and regulations for all competition disciplines; sparring, patterns, special technique, breaking and team events. The make-up and role of each member of the judging panel for each event was discussed, as was the general procedure. Rules and how they could be interpreted and applied was discussed extensively, with input from various participants who had knowledge and experience of international competitions.
2 rings had been set up so that following the patterns and sparring theory, the group could attempt to put what they had learnt to put into practice. Participants took it in turns to take on the roles of judges and competitors, with the competitors performing patterns with pre-determined mistakes to test the groups scoring and observation skills. To put into practice the sparring theory, volunteers did short rounds of sparring with deliberate offences that would elicit fouls and warnings, letting participants put into practice what they had learnt about the roles of centre referee, corner judge and jury president.
The day was very successful, with all participants coming away with a thorough knowledge of all competition disciplines, new ITF rules and practical experience in all of the different umpiring roles. The delivery of the course was informative and fun and will hopefully result in more umpires from ITF England clubs at international competitions in the future.

First of all, let me say that I and the rest of my playgroup absolutely love Exodus. But a concern is arising for us when I look at the expansion's effect on character variety. On the one hand, a huge plus about Exodus is that every class matters again, instead of just Political and Military Leaders. On the other hand, the gap between characters I'd classify as "haves" and "have-nots" has widened considerably, by my estimation.
Tier 1
- Helena Cain has something to offer the fleet. Players at my table find her very attractive to choose. Whether she stays human or cylon, she's a real power character.
- Tory Foster obviously has something to offer the fleet. Our impression has been that there's just nothing quite like her. She really doesn't need to be president, and we're beginning to feel it's better for the fleet if she isn't, for a variety of reasons. But she's a *monster*.
- Apollo has something to offer the fleet. He's a phenomenal CAG.
- Chief has something to offer the fleet. His card set is great. His OPT and OPG are both strong. He has a lot to give if he stays human, and a lot to take away if he flips.
At least three of these characters are picked very frequently among the first 4 picks. And it's not because we're trying to amass a "dream team"; it's because each is the most attractive option for the individual player currently picking. The dominoes can fall in a different order each time, but by the end, the same ones tend to fall. These are, to my group, the Tier 1 choices of each color.
Then there are the Tier 2 choices. These are characters who can adequately sub for the Tier 1 choices. In many cases they have conditional advantages that might make them stronger on rare occasions, but as a general rule they are weaker.
Tier 2
- William Adama and Felix Gaeta are good Admirals.
- No yellow rivals Tory in power, but it's very common for our table to have two yellows: either Ellen Tigh as a utility character or Baltar / Zarek will trump Tory for the presidency, freeing her to run around drawing infinity blues and purples, effectively making her a "super-Chief."
- Starbuck is a strong CAG. Kat is a fine second pilot, but not a very good CAG, since she shouldn't be in space.
- Cally is an adequate support character.
And then there are the Tier 3 choices. With the increased rigor of Exodus, players at my table perceive these characters as risky choices (maybe it's the absence of a character from the above list for every choice from below that's the risky thing). Either way, these characters are relegated to the dustbin to an even greater extent than they were before.
Tier 3
- Saul Tigh and Helo never see play anymore. The problem with Helo isn't even that he's bad, it's that he's only really good if taken really early. And the 1st or 2nd person picking now has such other attractive options that Helo gets overlooked until the beaters go off the board, and by then he's unattractive.
- Laura Roslin doesn't see much play. Our group loved her pre-Exodus. The problem is she combos poorly with Tory. Do you have no Tory? Or do you pass the presidency to Tory? Or do you just quorum slowly, effectively running a gimped Tory? Those all sound bad.
- Boomer was always weak. Now she has Anders for company in the box.
- Dee really, really should have gotten better with Exodus. But I still feel like she's Tier 3. Her OPG is not good, her card set's a little hinky, and her OPT just kind of looks better than it is. I want to be wrong about her, but we've tried her quite a bit and come to feel that she's not all there.
Anyway, those are our initial impressions. I know all about actual mileage varying for different groups based on different playstyles, and I've no doubt that different players' lists will look different. I wouldn't mind hearing about groups that have drawn significantly different conclusions about individual characters on this list, but I'm even more interested in hearing about groups where Exodus has not had this kind of narrowing effect on character selection. Has anyone felt like it's broadened character selection? If so, how or why?
See, I love diversity in character selection, and I sometimes take an obscure character just to give them a chance (or maybe to be contrary). But by mid-game, I often come to feel I've hurt my and my team's chances of victory by choosing sub-optimally. Whatever my intentions when I take (for the sake of an extreme example) Saul Tigh instead of Helena Cain, when the absence of Blind Jump costs my team a game two hours later, I'm the irresponsible guy. I've come to feel I owe it to whichever team I wind up on to pack a little punch, especially with the increased intensity of Exodus. Your thoughts?

Also on the schedule for eventual demolition are various small houses between the core of the Lee campus and the new construction.
A portion of the annex will continue as the adult learning center and online education unit.
The plan includes renovation of the main First Baptist sanctuary building into a music performance hall, construction of a new communications building and demolition of the old retail building to make way for lawns and "green space."
Key to the new development was a major gift of property and cash from Allan and Janie Jones. The amount of the gift was not revealed, but it was large enough for the First Baptist sanctuary to be renamed "Pangle Hall" in honor of Janie Jones, Allan's wife.
The opening of both the new music hall and the academic building is scheduled for fall 2014, according to past reports.
The exterior of the old First Baptist Church on Church Street and Central Avenue will remain essentially unchanged. The main exception is removal of the steeple and it being replaced with a cupola, which will more faithfully reflect an academic style.
Two other parts of the former First Baptist building function as a campus child care center and as additional classroom space for one of the university's departments.
Lee University purchased the First Baptist Church in June 2010 for $5 million after the congregation moved to its new site on Stuart Road.

Fun and Games Tables
For the design-aware who also like the occasional game of foosball, or table tennis or pool, the pickings have historically been, shall we say, somewhat slim. In general, the options were either of the lumpy, blocky, woody variety or of the flimsy, shoddy one. Little wonder they're usually relegated to basements, garages or dim game rooms—out of sight and, more often than not, out of mind. A few companies are changing all that, creating game tables that demand some prime real estate.

So… I'm guilty. I have pretty much started the new year doing everything you're supposed to stop doing. I don't make resolutions (unless DRINK MORE COFFEE counts?),but I have spent the last 11 days altogether slacking on life. Will eventually answer emails and clean my stuff up and all that. Maybe on Opening Day or maybe not. Further updates at a later date.
Anyway, in baseball news, the Hall of Fame announced who they will be inducting this year and the answer is nobody. Not even in the Odysseus sense: nobody with a capital N. Just nobody as in nobody because the baseball writers are on a power trip and really we need a new way of voting so that arbitrary in a way that suits us fans a little better. A hint: arbitrary is arbitrary, no matter how you spin it. No one was inducted this year. Life goes on.
Moving right along.
This past month or so has been pretty sleepy, mostly, with the new CBA pretty much guilting everyone into finishing up their offseason early, as was intended, I think. Catchers and pitchers (in)voluntarily report to Spring Training a month from tomorrow. There are still a few players floating around and a cover guy for MLB The Show to be picked, but otherwise, crickets
In the meantime, I am entertaining myself with movie award season. My Golden Globe prediction ballot is all filled out and I'm still celebrating about Beasts of the Southern Wild and Silver Linings Playbook knocking everyone else out with their sort-of-surprise Oscar noms. And recovering from the shock that Trouble With the Curve didn't, like, clean up.
Justin Timberlake is a man of many talents. Baseball broadcasting, sadly, is not one of them.

Oct 25, 2011Just three words: NO SKIRMISH MODE.......................................................................................................................................
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 30, 2011
Oct 25, 2011Remember when stronghold 2 came out? It's more buggy then that ever was.. Graphic errors, no skirmish mode, terrible campaign and lots more to list.. Don't buy this until it's on a 5$ sale or 3 years from now when they fix all the glitches.. Why can't they just remake stronghold 1 or crusader to how we all want it to be..
Oct 26, 2011Such a disappointment, so much potential wasted :( Weak graphics, full of bugs, boring campaign, tiny maps and a generally very unfinished feel to it. Basic mechanics are of course very similar to stronghold 1 and 2 and that's about the only thing done right.
Oct 25, 2011The most anticipated flop of our generation. Crashes left right and centre, poor AI and poorly designed non-immersive maps are only a few things that cast out Stronghold 3 from it's predecessors.
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 25, 2011My biggest gripe with this game is that it bears a full price tag and there is no demo. That is really a problem, because you can't get refunds on Steam and the game is utter crap. It runs well, but looks bad on GTX470 and is missing a lot of features. Feels like a beta version. They just wanted to cash in on the Stronghold name.
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 25, 2011Incredibly disappointed! The game is not finished, should not have been release in my opinion. Multi player does not work at all at the moment! Huge bugs in game! This game needs a patch to even be playable. Anyone rating the game 10 works for production coz game don't work!!!

Oct 25, 2011I guess the glorious days of the Stronghold Franchise are over. Stronghold 3 has HUGE bugs, currently no speed regulation, graphics looks like came out of 2002 - to shortcut this - for my taste... a Nr1 lame game. Stronghold 3 earned a place in my personal FAIL BUY's list.
Oct 25, 2011Worst Game Ever. 10 years since the original and this is the best they can manage? Buggy, crappy graphics and disappointing game play. PS, A sketch for a cut scene is as lazy as it gets. I demand a refund. SAVE YOUR MONEY DO NOT BUY.
Oct 25, 2011This game is awful. The tutorial is far too brief. The gameplay is sluggish and antiquated. The controls feel unfinished. The graphics are very poor and glitchy. After 20 minutes of play I feel totally robbed of the premium price that I pre-paid for this game. Shameful.
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 25, 2011Buggy, over-simplistic and but a shadow of it's former incarnates. There is so much to hate in this game, and forums everywhere are overflowing with it all. All in all, avoid.
Oct 26, 2011
Oct 26, 2011This game is garbage. The developers knew what they were doing when they released this trash. Shame on them. False COOP gameplay advertising on Steam during preorder was criminal. I'm disgusted at Firefly and what they did to this franchise. Whenever I see high marks from user reviews for this game, it's clear they work for the company...gross.
Oct 27, 2011
Oct 26, 2011
Oct 25, 2011I was really looking forward to this game. Preordered it. SO disappointed. Laggy (even on my very high spec nearly new laptop), still lags when graphics set lower and lights turned off. Crashes out.... oh I can't even begin to list all the problems.
I wish I'd never wasted my money :( -

Oct 26, 2011The skirmish for me isnt a huge problem, however things like selecting troops to attack, weighting of various building types, the terrible mini map, small map sizes, poor widescreen/multi screen support (the list goes on) are just unacceptable for a full price release.
A very dissapointing release and Firefly should be ashamed of themselves. -
Oct 26, 2011Sadly imho all the negative review here are true! missing coop / skirmish mode..pathfinding is horrible! wall building is horrible! and the game is definetly unfinished...

Oct 26, 2011Horrible game. First off: No skirmish mode means this game was born dead. Second, there are huge problems with selection. Third, even if you manage to select something fighting with it is even harder.
This game is in pain from the moment you install it. Put it out of it's misery and uninstall it.
This game makes SH2 look good, gameplay wise. Worst trainwreck of the year. -

Oct 26, 2011ran the program took one look at the 1996 graphics and said what a absolute waste of 50 dollars......
please dont waste the time or effort to even install this game what an absolute mess -
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 25, 2011
Oct 25, 2011Is it a new game ? Is it a beta test? I am really confused brothers.. Don´t buy this game! ............................................................
Oct 25, 2011To those who may be reading this: You may be inclined to think that this game can't possibly be as bad as the user reviews say. But this is quite possibly the worst game from the past 7 years, stay away from this title even if you find it in the budget bin. That the developers had the audacity to charge full price is so bizarre it simply HAS to be a joke.
Oct 25, 2011Oops, I gave this a 10 accidentally.
My bad, please forgive me.
I probably wouldn't have been disappointed had I paid $10 for it.
Still not at 150 characters.
Are we there yet?
Nope not quite.
Check out my review below.
I have to be pretty close now.
Is this really worth adding a new score?
Any day now... -
Oct 25, 2011Don't like this at all. I'm sorry I pre-ordered through Steam. Now I can't get my money back. Just uninstalled and I'm pretty bummed out about this.
Oct 26, 2011
Oct 26, 2011This game looks and feel like a student project. A nice feeling of retro seeing as they are still using the same uninspired HUDelements as the first RTS games did, nothing in this release feels fresh, maybe some people likes this retro feeling, felt a bit like starting up Heroes 2 again. But its nothing for a new game that demands a full price for purchase. Im deeply disappointed
Oct 26, 2011Yet another game based on the success of a previous incarnation ruined. The game looks and feels dated, provides limited playability for a strategy game (no skirmish?!). If your feeling bored enough you could spend a few hours building a castle in the free build mode, only to do nothing with it.
Oct 26, 2011oh man i feel like a cheated girlâ
Oct 27, 2011
Oct 26, 2011What the reviews say is sad but true -- this game is buggy, and just plain unpolished. It doesn't have the fun of the first one, nor the skirmish mode of the second one. It's also unbalanced -- for example, a single wolf can kill several soldiers. So it's hard to recommend it at this time, maybe in the future when it's heavily patched.
Oct 26, 2011This game is not even worth pirating. It is so poorly designed and full of bugs. This game is not even worth pirating. It is so poorly designed and full of bugs.

Oct 27, 2011
Oct 29, 2011Many (perhaps all) of the enjoyable elements associated with the Stronghold series have been butchered. Even the basic requirements of decent RTS do not function correctly. For example, the simple method of selecting units and giving orders is broken.
Nov 4, 2011It is amazing that a respectable game company can release a game of such low quality. The graphics might have been acceptable in the 1990s but come on, this is a game released in 2011... the game is filled with graphical bugs, poor quality game-play... This game is one of the worst games i have seen in a long time and i have seen my share of bad games...
Oct 27, 2011The game is currently unplayable and obviously incomplete. There is almost no documentation for any of the mechanics,mechanics that exist generally do not work as they should. Game is a disaster and a last moment cash grab. Stick a fork in this franchise it is done...
Oct 29, 2011
Nov 3, 2011First this game alots of bugs, problems 2 play, this is terrible, was a fan of this game....real pitty.
The game is very slow, b4 u build something, it take hours. It looks like this game have be made with trainees. The only PLUS in this game, is how they present the game at the beginning, good sounds and music. For the price this is 2 expensive. Money back please. -
Oct 31, 2011Outdated 3d graphics, numerous bugs and no skirmish mode. The first Stronghold is now 10 years old and it's still far more enjoyable than any other game of the franchise (with Crusader being the exception).
Oct 25, 2011great game need sum patches only. the only ting i mis is multilayer .love the way you can look in a house and the sounds in dis game make me relax . many troll dis game. i dowt get it its pretty good
Oct 27, 2011the game is just plain bad. they make you pay 50 bucks for a game that feels like it was made 10 years ago. I used to like stronghold now i just want to forget it
Oct 28, 2011After being a huge fan of the original Stronghold and Stronghold Crusader, I am sad to say that this release is absurdly bad. I am not sure that I have seen a major commercial PC release this bad in my 20+ years of gaming.

Oct 26, 2011After playing this for a good few hours I can point out that most of the other reviewers are trolls, the game is fine and I have yet to run into either a bug or a bad gameplay decision, the graphics are nice but the character models could be better, the music is excellent and the gameplay is fine, for those wanting Stronghold 1 go and play Stronghold 1.

Nov 5, 2011the game could be fun if it was playable...new to the series and will not be back....currently trying for a refund over the unbelievable bugginess...cant even load games without crashes. complete waste of 50 bucks....warning...do not buy this game.....many others with same issues
Nov 6, 2011
Nov 6, 2011Basically, any review above a 5 is a major "trolololololol" this game is almost as as unplayable as ugly. now i understand its not meant to be a game based around its graphics, but this is 2011, not having AT LEAST decent graphics is a hard thing to explain. In addition, the economy's is wretched, i thought it was a castle building game, well i was wrong.

Oct 31, 2011Tired theme, limited game play, unimaginative and outdated graphics and storyline, limited free play and no skirmish mode. All in all very poor value for money. Difficult to see what developers have been doing this past four years. Should consider withdrawing the product and going back to the drawing board. Total flop.
Nov 7, 2011Ive decided to place my first review ever to encourage people to never buy this game, being a stronghold fan of the original. Im sadden to say this game is a 0 plan and simple thank you for wasting my money Stronghold 3 FTL.
Nov 21, 2011Where is the Skirmish mode? I never play the Campaign mode!!! Without Skirmish this game is a trash!!! And to worse the begin at the Campaign you don't has a realm, you just have slow persons to control! This game give me sleep!
Nov 29, 2011No working multiplayer, single player, map, wall, AI, saved games... No single map. Nothing works properly with 50dollars price tag.
ashes of a legend -
Nov 9, 2011In my humble opinion, Firefly should sell the Stronghold license to a developer that knows what to do with it, and shut down. This game is a disaster.

Nov 24, 2011FireFly = RIPOFF ARTISTS !! FF must run by criminally incompetent marketing hacks. They are ACTIVELY SELLING a product that THEY KNOW IS NOT FINISHED. Buy it only if you like blue screen of death.
Oct 26, 2011It is very similar to older titles with some neat new and exciting features. They haven't improved on the path finding but that is ok. I highly recommend this for Stronghold fans. But my God!! This one is HARD! I have experienced no graphical errors (run on high settings).
Oct 27, 2011stronghold 3 is very good. I havent had any problems and I think the game is very very fun. the grapics look very good, the gameplay is fun and immersive and the sound / music is great. all these negative reviews are probably call of duty kids.
Oct 27, 2011After playing stronghold 2 before buying stronghold 3, I genuially like stronghold 3. I enjoyed stronghold 2 and stronghold 3 has teh core gameplay but better graphics, sound and multiplayer. The only thing stopping me from giving this a 10 is that there needs to be more maps for multiplayers.
Oct 27, 2011Stronghold is a GOOD game! they have been releasing updates and already the game is fixed. People shouldnt review the game the day its released, no.1 because they cant experience it all in that time, no.2 because the game hasnt been patched yet! 2 large patches have been released and the game works perfectly and I love it

Jan 20, 2012Failure of the year – first two games don't deserve such a disappointing sequel as Stronghold 3 did. Few pros cannot hide a pile of bugs and bad design decisions. [Dec 2011]
Dec 24, 2011A traditional strategy with many elements which are too old. Fans of the series may like it still. [January 2012, p.72]
Dec 16, 2011Stronghold 3 is boring beyond redemption. The blurb on the retail box should have been written along the lines of "We've run out of ideas, our artists forgot how to draw, and our programmers can't produce stable code anymore, but hey, a long, long time ago we made one really great game!"

If you're looking for a classic New Orleans music experience, catch a contemporary jazz set at the genre's famed local destination, Snug Harbor. Snug Harbor (626 Frenchmen St) is located at the edge of Frenchmen St, the popular strip of New Orleans music clubs in the Marigny neighborhood to the east of the French Quarter. A smaller, more intimate venue—a perfect setting for the music it hosts—Snug Harbor is one of the most famous music venues in the city.
Snug Harbor hosts two sets of music (8 and 10pm) seven nights a week. The music calendar has some performers in regular slots and a hearty mix of other local artists on most other days of the week. Mondays are often hosted by singer Charmaine Neville, and Wednesdays, the Uptown Jazz Orchestra. The rest of the week is open to a wide range of contemporary jazz artists, though you can often find Ellis Marsalis taking over the Friday sets.

The Resource Center has all the info you'll need From content to user feedback, the resource center has the information you need for every level of the entrepreneurial process.
Following persistent speculation that a startup accelerator bubble was forming — fueled by the exploding popularity of bootcamps, hackathons, co-working spaces and all-things-startup — a new report on TechCrunch suggests the trend may be losing steam.
The next couple of weeks will be fairly quiet in Washington, DC, as Congress has adjourned for Thanksgiving holiday recess. The House will reconvene in one week on Monday, December 2, while the Senate doesn't reconvene until the following Monday, December 9.
Each day, Innovation Daily checks the pulse of global innovation--courtesy of Innovation America. Here, we take a look at a handful of relevant stories it compiled last week.
Americans know their celebrities, living or dead: a full 96 percent recognize the name Marilyn Monroe.
But say "Steve Jobs" to a U.S. resident, and the odds are barely better than 50/50 that you'll get a nod of recognition for the founder of Apple.
Even entrepreneurs who have made extraordinary contributions to the U.S. economy – and to daily life for millions – have relatively low public awareness, according to a study released today by the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation.
What do entrepreneurs in America have in common with entrepreneurs in Qatar? More than you might imagine, according to a recent survey sponsored by the organizers of Global Entrepreneurship Week (GEW), the world's largest celebration of the innovators and job creators who launch startups that bring ideas to life, drive economic growth and expand human welfare.
'The Startup Movement' is the topic of a House Small Business Committee hearing this week—an appropriate and timely topic for Global Entrepreneurship Week. Georgetown University's Jeff Reid and Kansas City Startup Village's Adam Arredondo are scheduled to testify. Other topics covered in committee hearings include: Bitcoin and the future of virtual currency, content delivery methods in the digital age, medical mobile apps, the 'Innovation Act', small business exchanges in PPACA and more.
The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation announced last week that the nomination period is now open for the Kauffman Junior Faculty Fellowship in Entrepreneurship Research (KJFF). The Kauffman Foundation will award up to seven Junior Faculty Fellowship grants to junior faculty members in the United States whose research has the potential to make significant contributions to the body of literature in entrepreneurship.
Over the next three weeks, a series of stories by McKinsey on Society's Voices will explore how entrepreneurial thinking can help solve the world's most complex societal challenges. Broken into three segments—one per week—the 'Entrepreneurship Without Boundaries' series starts by taking a look at a few entrepreneurs that are creating social value.
Members of the House are back on Capitol Hill following last week's district work period and there are a number of hearings scheduled for the week ahead. Jason Furman, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers shares the economic outlook with the Joint Economic Committee while CBO director Douglas Elmendorf appears before the House Budget Committee. Other topics covered include: federal investments in research, science and technology; patent trolls; advanced manufacturing; wireless spectrum; PPACA and more.

I've lived in Montana, USA my whole life...well excluding 2 years in AZ when I was a kid. LOL. It took me a while to get a hang of getting on this Forum, so I know I'll need more help here, as time goes by.
Been digi scrapbooking for quite a few years, this year learning how to extract animals who visit our land. In fact yesterday I made a birthday card for my B-I-L, my hubby took a photo of 2 Mulie Bucks, playing by bumping their heads against each other. I must say it turned out pretty good, if I do say so myself. I use PSE9 and Corel Draw for both cards and digi scrapping.

ARO™ Creatine – 5 grams per scoop, 30 servings per container
Refreshing, natural fruit punch flavor – no artificial colors or dye
What is ARO™ Creatine?
Drink down 5 grams of pure creatine monohydrate with great-tasting, smooth-mixing ARO Creatine powder. Not chalky or bitter like other powders, ARO Creatine is micronized for better dissolvability and drinkability—with refreshing fruit punch flavor from 100% natural sources (no chemical aftertaste!). Mix with 6 to 8 oz. of water and drink daily to promote muscle development and energy.*
Creatine, found in meat and dairy products but also naturally made by the body from the amino acids l-glycine, l-arginine and methionine, serves as an important source of chemical energy for muscle contraction.* Once it reaches the muscles, creatine is converted to phosphocreatine (creatine phosphate) and ultimately becomes ATP (adenosine triphosphate)—the body's primary source of energy.*
Why choose Vitacost ARO™ Creatine?
About Vitacost
Vitacost nutritional products are manufactured to high standards of quality, efficacy and safety. Each Vitacost product meets or exceeds the standards and requirements set forth in the FDA's Code of Federal Regulation (21 CFR, 111) Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP).
*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
As a dietary supplement, mix 1 scoop with 6-8 oz. of water. Use daily as desired or as directed by a healthcare professional. Consume six to eight glasses of water daily with creatine supplementation.
For loading: Take 1 serving 4 times per day for 5 days with 6-8 oz. water.
For maintenance: Take 1 serving daily with 6-8 oz. water.

I bought a 36ct wax box of 89 Donruss today for $10, dont know if thats good or not but its only $10 so I didnt care. Very first pack in I hit a Randy Johnson RC, ok not a bad start maybe Ill get that Griffey eventually. Second pack in and bam there it is a nice looking Griffey RC staring me in the face. Yea sure its only a 89' Donruss but Im 2 packs in and I got one already so Im pretty stoked. Anyways just felt like sharing with everyone Im going to open the other 34 packs now maybe Ill get a few more haha. Later everyone.

Field Report: Inovonics 610
There comes a time when you just have to give up on the cheap products and go for the gusto. We had a good run with our last Internet radio, but we had to reboot it often because of poor design of the power supply. When one radio failed altogether, finding a new radio locally, i.e. not online, became a chore. I did not want to run a dedicated computer for this task, either. Having just returned from the NAB Show, and recently installing an Inovonics INOmini 632, I decided to purchase an Inovonics 610 Internet radio monitor.
What I learned about the device from the 2013 NAB Show: A simple looking device that, hopefully, would be a long-term solution to reliable stream monitoring. Upon receiving the monitor, I was quite pleased with the simple minimalistic design. The front has LED level meters, loss indicators, an OLED display, a back button (to navigate the menu), a jog wheel and a headphone jack. What more do you need? The jog wheel is also a selector button. On the back are balanced analog audio outputs, an AES3 output, alarm outputs, LAN port, and two power jacks. The two power jacks allow devices to be daisy-chained using one wall-wart power supply. The wall-wart power supply comes with a detachable cord so it does not take up multiple outlet spaces.
Physically, two monitors can sit side-by-side in a single rack space, and an optional rack adaptor is available. The rugged metal enclosure is a far cry from the cheap plastic consumer enclosures, and if you are in a high RF environment it will provide some shielding. It is still recommended to take proper precautions in such an environment. Unlike consumer monitors the 610 comes with open-collector outputs for alarm tallies. One can monitor the status for audio loss, stream loss and Internet loss.
Up and running
The 610 is simple to install. All configurations can be completed using the front menus on the device itself or via the Web interface. It supports a number of Internet streaming formats: MP3, AAC and Ogg Vorbis. The AES3 audio output is fixed at 48kHz. In many cases this is not an issue, but there could be a situation where the downstream equipment does not have built-in sample rate converters. The balanced analog outputs are XLR connectors providing +4dBu.
Performance at a glance | ||
■ Alarm tallies and email notifications
■ Decodes MP3, Ogg Vorbis, AAC ■ Compact size ■ Web interface capable ■ Balanced analog and AES3 outputs |
Initial configuration of the device via the front menus is intuitive using the jog wheel. The separate back button is a nice touch. The default IP setting is DHCP and will acquire network settings from a DHCP server. It is easy enough to switch to a static address. For installations that do not have a DNS server or the device is connected to an outside dynamic IP address, an option to configure Dynamic DNS is available. Once the IP address of the device is known the rest of the configuration is done via the front menus or the Web interface. Entering the URL for the stream is as easy as entering the address and selecting connect.

Colorblock Tank
Style # 216013
With bold stripes at sides, lustrous lightweight fabric and bow tie at back, this bebe top is a flirty way to update bottoms. Try it with a pair of skinny white jeans and metallic sandals.
- 100% rayon
- Center back to hem: 22" (56 cm)
- Dry clean
- Imported
- Model is 5'9" and is wearing a US size S
Colorblock Tank
Poor quality
The shirt is see through and already has snags or pulls in it. I didn't even wear it yet. The material is cheap and poorly constructed. It appears longer in length in the pic on-line than it actually is. It comes and inch or 2 above my jeans/pants. Now I have to try and find something to wear underneath it. It's not worth the $$$ at all.
July 5, 2013
Tried this top on in the store and it looked awful. The material was sheer, but it looked like it was snagged all over. It's just the imperfections in the material. It doesn't add any shape. Looks pretty on the hanger, but not on.
May 31, 2013
Not as pictured
I loved this top "online" but so different in person. It is completely sheer and the material was so saggy. The description said absolutely nothing about being completely see through. What a huge disappointment. Sent it back today.
May 28, 2013
very cheap made
I got this top in the mail ,I was so disappointed with the material , very cheap made, it snag easily & the price is so high for such cheap top.
May 27, 2013
Love It!
Even though the material is see through I absolutely love the top. Tried it on in the store to get a good idea of how the top would look and feel. I was not disappointed. There a tag on the shirt that states to remove all jewelry when trying on due to the delicate fabric. Needless to say, those simple instructions saves the fabric. I love the shirt. Bought it in both colors!
May 26, 2013
Not what I would expect from bebe
This top was so cheaply made it looks like something from forever 21. Thin material and the top already had a snag in it. I noticed that most of the tops in the store are looking like cheap quality. Bummer because online it looked cute.

Enrollment and Academic Services
Graduate Admissions and Program Evaluations (GAPE) handles procedures related to admissions, and university level program requirements for graduate students. Detailed information about applying to a graduate program, steps for completing a master's degree (including applying for Candidacy and Graduation), and important forms and deadlines, can be found by accessing the links below.
Spring 2015 Applicants
SJSU opens for Spring 2015 graduate applications on Friday, August 1, 2014. Apply at www.csumentor.edu. A list of application deadlines by program can be found here. Term specific lists of available majors are also posted on the CSUMentor website. If you do not see a particular academic program listed, that program has determined that it met or exceeded its enrolled student capacity for the academic year with the Spring admission cycle. As a result, the program has determined that it will not be open for applications in the Spring 2015 term.
SJSU requires that all applicants who have completed course work at an institution outside the United States or Canada provide a WES (World Education Services) evaluation. Mark sheets/transcripts must be sent directly to WES for evaluation. (SJSU must receive the academic record and the evaluation directly from WES.) A complete WES evaluation is preferred. However, GAPE will review applications of those in the final year of study. For these applicants, the WES Evaluation must contain a minimum of 7 semesters of work. More information can be found on the International Applicants: How to Apply page and the Domestic Applicants: How to Apply page. After you submit your documents to WES, please DO NOT send a copy of your documents to SJSU as our offices will receive the completed evaluation directly from WES. International transcripts sent directly to SJSU will not be accommodated.
Current Students
Review the steps for completing your master's degree and deadlines related to candidacy and graduation. This section also contains all the commonly used forms for current students.

Post subject: Dreams
I really liked the "Dreams" thread in the old forum, where you could post accounts of dreams you'd had. So here we go.
Dreamed that I had been having a romance with a young woman. This part is really fuzzy. All I remember about it is that we embraced one another during a class on bibliographic cataloging being held in the main library on campus. Then class split up and we left the building. I remember a scene in which I read aloud from a really creepy book about cataloging and torture.
Then we (the whole class) boarded a wooden sailing ship which was parked outside and proceeded to sail the waters surrounding the campus. My romantic interest made a foolish decision to climb over the edge of the railing and stand on the bowsprit. For a while she was fine, but then she fell off into the water below. I called at her to climb aboard again, but she wanted to swim. I told her there were crocodiles in the water, that I could see them coming for her, but she didn't believe me and kept swimming. One of them nipped at her, and then she believed, but she kept swimming, thinking she could outswim the crocodiles. I dove overboard to see if I could pull her out, but I got to her just in time to see her swallowed by a giant crocodile. I pulled myself out of the red water onto a nearby island and swore revenge.
Then there was a shift of scene. I was back home, in a village; my parents and I were sitting on the porch of our house, because I was courting. In this culture courtship went like this - eligible young men would sit on their porches with their parents, and any girls who were interested would show up with THEIR parents in tow. If the girl took the boy inside for a private discussion, that was a good sign, and their parents would stay outside and start negotiating possible marriage terms.
But with me it wasn't quite like that. There was an odd thing about the dream at this point, which was that it was in two levels. There was the surface level, in which you could see what appeared to be happening, and there were the actual events, which ccurred in my head. Anyway, a young woman approached, but she didn't have her parents with her, and no one had ever seen her before. She was very pale, and spoke in a distant manner as if she wasn't really there, and her fingers were long. That was the level of what could be seen. What was going on inside my head was that I was crawling through a ventilation duct of some kind, armed with a kitchen knife, trying to recover a piece of magical equipment which would help me avenge my dead love-interest.
The girl invited me into the house for a private discussion, and my parents didn't quite know what to do with no one to talk to in the meantime. I went with her. But inside my head, I met a couple of nasty jumping things with fangs and killed them inside that ventilation duct, and then made my way out into a room with an oozing floor made of mud or slime of some sort. A great beast hove out of the slime and I stabbed it with my knife, but it didn't mind. "I will serve you," it said. "Gain the allegiance of my nine brethren and when we ten all serve, you shall have whatever you wish." "The power to avenge my dead love?" I asked it. "If that is what you wish," it said, and then it turned into a rusty helmet which I put on.
Then, back on the level of visible events, I emerged from the house. The girl never came out, but I had a rusty helmet on.
The dream fragmented at this point. I expect that what would have happened would be that a series of girls would come to see me, go in for a private discussion and vanish, leaving me to emerge with a new piece of armor or weaponry for each one. After the tenth, I would have all the armor and weapons, and don them, make my wish, and destroy the crocodiles. Or something. But part way through the second visitor I woke up.
I suppose this is what comes of falling asleep while reading a book titled "Two Kinds of Power, an Essay on Bibliographic Control". It was cool, in a creepy kind of way.

I liked this thread also. One of my recent recurring dreams has been really rather peculiar.
Essentially, it goes like this: I fall asleep, and immediately wake up in what can only be described as a stereotypical train station. I am sitting, leaning up against the wall. I realize that I've been asleep for quite some time, perhaps years... and feel like I've been abandoned there. Left, by my previous family, friends, and everything because I slept for so long. I get up, and start looking for something to do. Then a train comes, so I get on. Getting on is where the part is always creepily lucid. I get on, and I see exactly three people on the train. A hobo, a frankenstein, and Einstein.
Then realizing this, I wake up. :O

Wow guys...slightly, ever so slightly creepy.
But that's what most dreams are, right?
This thread reminds me oddly about a dream my friend Karli had when we in, like, seventh grade.
Okay, so Karli was inviting the entire football team over to a sleepover. For some odd reason, myself and Jaime arrived early and began helping her set out blankets and stuff. We went to the laundry closet to get some more blankets and rugs, and quite abruptly, the entire room was filled with viscous green ghosts. Not a few, not a hundred, like,
Jaime promptly walks into the thick of it and begins introducing herself and shaking hands with all the ghosts, whilst Karli and I totally freak out.
Then, the
of the team shows up waving hockey sticks, screeching, "We'll take care of them!" (Karli was reciting the dream to everyone at this time, and we were all going up in hysterics.
The team started laying into the ghosts with the hockey sticks. At this point, Karli's account get's rather fuzzy. Apparently, Shallan got her eye poked out, Carmen turned into a...lion? Katherine, Brianna, and Quinn start swinging around with their sticks. And me? I died.
Luckily for me, the newly-made necromancer, Jaime, brought me back to life. Then, (thank God) Karlie woke up.
Ha ha...this was really funny at the time...I'm surprised I still remember it.
I just realised I had a really weird dream last night, but I don't wanna tell it.

In my opinion, what's more important than the contents of the dream is the feeling(/s) that accompanies it. I've tried passing that feeling on to people before, and I've always failed miserably. Without that, my dreams are empty and boring....stories with no significance or interest.

Usually my dreams tend to make no sense at all and I can be lucky if I can remember anything.
However, I find myself quite often at train stations or airports (or on a train or on board of an airplane) and find myself making plans for the journey.
And even though I hardly ever watch movies about natural disasters, twisters are also quite regular nightly visitors. Scary stuff.
Now that I have been playing D&D for a while though, curiously, the continuous dreams I could easily remeber when I was younger are slowly starting to return. I used to write the best or funniest ones down, wish I still had that diary.
In one of the games, for example, we are currently in a deserted Dwarven city situated on top of a mountain, but half of the city was destroyed ages ago when a part of the mountain broke off.
A few days later I had a rather vivid dream about a city very much like the one our DM described to us, and even noticed the similarities while I was still dreaming.
However, the combination of a D&D session, two glasses of Black Bush and checking the various webcomics I have bookmarked for updates were probably too much for me last weekend. I woke up laughing, wonder what my poor housemate thought. For now let's say I managed a seamless integration of the madness I call my life, the events of a new game and Earthsong. More tomorrow, but now I need some sleep. 10 PM here and I have to get up at 5. Augh!

I've had two weeks of Holocaust related dreams, ranging from being deported to the Krakow ghetto with my mother to being shot by Nazis in a transport to learning about the Holocaust in class.

I had a dream a while ago, which I viewed as if watching a film.
A woman in America is preparing a house for viewing (I think she is in real estate). She is making the final checks on the house when it starts shifting, the walls changing and doorways sealing behind her. She continues through the house, trying to find a way out when she enters a final room which is bare. A man in police uniform is stood in the center of the room. She tries to attract his attention and he turns around. His skin is deathly pale, and all the veins are picked out in blue. His eyes are purest black, like holes into nothingness. The angle changes and panns across behind the woman's lower legs. We see the man fall, his eyes now white, and it cuts to the woman's eyes, now black as the vacuum of space.
There was a bit after that but I don't remember it so well, I think it had to do with what her family did when they found out what had happened. It didn't really scare me because all I could think was "This is a really good film! Nice CGI!"

I dream often, but it never makes much sense. There's one dream that I dream about once every month and a bunch of figures which appear frequently, the strangest one being a young man wearing a top hat - not because of his looks, but because he claims that he's my subconscious.

In my wonderfully REM-deprived state, my most amusing dreams happen when I drift off in class. A particularly amusing one was simply that I became convinced that my chem prof, who likes to walk back and forth along the blackboard, was in fact walking back and forth across it- at right angles to gravity. The sound of the chalk had become the scrape of her shoes on the board. And the whole time, I could hear her talking about MRI and Mass Spectroscopy. Highly amusing.
I also get some weird dreams falling asleep in English, because it usually involves whatever book we're discussing...

Yeah, my classtime dreams are variations of whatever's really happening - like I'll be watching someone's feet pass in front of my desk through droopy eyes, then I'll open my eyes and realize there's no one there - I was dreaming.

Very Nice
I tried the Agave Nectar Hand Lotion, and it has a little sweeter citrus fragrance than lemon. The lotion is excellent for the skin, but the scent is not as strong or enduring as other lotions I've bought. This may be just what someone is looking for, but I need that "aromatherapy" to last the whole day in my classroom! ;-) I was really hoping to find something to substitute for Bergamot Vert which was unfortunately discontinued, and though Agave Nectar is very nice, it is not quite the scent I had hoped for.
Was this review helpful? Yes No
just creamy
always next to the hand soap. a finishing touch that carries with you for a lasting scent as well as softness.
Love It!
This is a light, non greasy, delicious citrus smelling hand cream! Pros: non greasy, smells great, softens nicely. Cons: doesn't last through hand washing, so if you have really dry hands, you need to reapply after contact with water. Money saving tip: for summer especially, I use this as a body moisturizer and save a bunch of money over the body lotion. Also, for nighttime or dry hands, the hand cream is wonderful. Most of all, this is my favorite Thymes fragrance, very citrusy, lots of pink grapefruit, not too heavy. Makes you feel fresh and clean. A real treat.
All day energy
I love this scent for the energy the clean citrus scent brings. It is invigorating and exciting and lasts even a little after a hand washing. I will definitely try the body lotion next!
The Perfect Lotion for Men Who Don't Use Lotion
You should see my father's hands! Winter and summer, he's always outdoors, fixing their solar panels, chopping wood for the stove, shoveling snow, digging up new garden space, planting and weeding, trimming back trees, grooming the dogs ... And his hands are often chapped, cracked, scratched, and irritated. This year I decided, enough is enough, I'm sending him his very own lotion that no one else can use. It has to have a pump bottle so he can apply it last thing at night. It has to soak in quickly or he won't use it. It has to prove its worth right away or he'll set it aside. Basically, it has to work and keep working--and I could think of one hand lotion that would fit the bill, plus have a scent that men enjoy: Agave Nectar Hand Lotion. So I sent him a bottle...and he's using it! Unlike other lotions I've sent as family gifts at Christmas, this one really fit the bill. When I asked him if it's working, he said he would have to admit that "it's making a definite difference." Hurrah! Now I have the summer review. I just have to send him another bottle come winter, and check in again. Winter will be the ultimate test, but I have a feeling Agave Nectar will come through once again. Stay tuned ...

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Hmm. I bet it has something to do with only ONE of his many statements
about Muslims, one of which was that he would never hire a Muslim because
they are fundamentally un-american, or maybe it was the comment that he
believes communities should have the ability to ban mosques....I think he
brought that on himself.

Threat driven due to race. POTUS remains the most threatened protectee,
due to race white hate. He also has more resources assigned then any
other POTUS in history. Keeping him alive forever will exceed the USSS
budget. It will be interesting to see how they are forced to handle once
out of office, when resources are reduced. It won't be possible to reduce
resources on him in his lifetime.

Presidential candidate Herman Cain will receive protection from the
U.S. Secret Service, a source in federal law enforcement and two other
sources told CNN.
Cain will be the first candidate in the race for the Republican
presidential nomination in the 2012 election cycle to be placed under
the protection of the federal law enforcement agency. The reason was
not yet clear.
While early, it is not unprecedented for the Secret Service to take
over the security of a presidential candidate. In May 2007, then-Sen.
Barack Obama, who was running for the Democratic nomination, was
placed under Secret Service protection.
