When tragic stories of mass killing emerge, like the Sandy Hook Elementary school in Connecticut, the effects on weapons sales and legislation are well-publicized by news organizations and pundits, but there are other weapons-themed businesses like VIP Airsoft in Gilbert.
The company's retail Airsoft and paintball gun business and the military-style assault competitions that are held in its 1,300-square-foot arena present intrinsic similarities to real weapons and real assault scenarios.
But, according to VIP owner Bryan Bijonowski, the fallout for his business is minimal.
"You get maybe one or two parents who ask a question or two or you might have somebody that bought a gun for their kids for Christmas and then might want to return it. We had one person do that," Bijonowski recalled about the days following the December shooting.
Bijonowski also recalled that the same customer was a firearms user, "so I don't understand the philosophy on that."
Bijonowski, who says his is an entertainment venue, said he would expect more impact if a mass shooting happened closer to home.
The VIP Airsoft owner also said that it isn't his customers or responsible firearms users who present a danger to his business or greater society.
"All these people who do that (mass killings), they're some lunatic, some mentally ill person," Bijonowski said. "It isn't like you or me — some standup citizen — just goes nuts all of the sudden."
Bijonowski added that if the mentally ill faced screening that disallowed them from possessing firearms, he thinks most gun issues can be solved.
Bijonowski did say he is vigilant when it comes to customers who may look like they have ill intentions but as the owner of an entertainment venue that draws mostly children, it's hard to judge.
"We may get someone who looks odd, but I might look odd to somebody from another state, so it's hard to draw conclusions like that," he said.

Dover qualifying: Johnson on pole, Gordon 10th
- Sep 25, 2009
- 5 Team • 24 Team • 48 Team • 88 Team • Team Hendrick
DOVER, Del. (Sept. 25, 2009)—Jimmie Johnson earned his second pole position of the NASCAR Sprint Cup season during Friday's qualifying session at Dover International Speedway.
Johnson, who earned the pole earlier this season at Watkins Glen (N.Y.), circled the one-mile concrete oval in 22.878 seconds at roughly 157 mph to score his second career top spot at Dover. Johnson enters Sunday's race ranked second in the driver standings and with the benefit of having the first pit stall.
"There's so much time to be gained on pit road, and the fact that you only have to go a few short feet to cross that camera line makes all the difference in the world," said Johnson, who also started from the pole position in September 2007. "I'm very proud of this team."
Jeff Gordon will line up seventh for the 400-mile event, earning his 18th top-10 starting spot of the season. Gordon, driver of the No. 24 DuPont Chevrolet, is ranked 10th in the driver standings.
Mark Martin, the points leader in the Chase for the Sprint Cup, qualified 14th during Friday's session. Martin will be making his 750th Cup start on Sunday.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. will roll off the grid 24th in his No. 88 National Guard/AMP Energy Chevrolet.
Race coverage for Sunday's event starts at 1 p.m. ET on ABC, and the green flag is scheduled to drop at 2 p.m.

Written by Administrator
Thursday, 19 March 2009 00:00
Latin America Discipleship & Outreach (LADO) is celebrating its first annual benefit and silent auction on Saturday, April 25 at the Navilleton Activity Center in Floyds Knobs, Indiana. LADO is a nonprofit organization focusing its efforts on reaching out to displaced children and families in Colombia, South America. Edgar and Julie (Kiesler) Zuluaga, missionaries supported by LADO, have been working in Villa Katy, Colombia for three years. Because of violence and political turmoil, these families were forced to leave their homes, everything they owned, and flee to safety. LADO's dream is to restore them, bringing a message of hope, love, and a future.
LADO wishes to educate and equip these adults with tools to help them sustain their families and provide them a better way of life. They want to buy a farm and build a multi-purpose ministry center in order to provide jobs, as well as skills training. Please join LADO for an awesome evening of fellowship and encouragement.
Dinner tickets are on sale for $15.00/adults, $7.50/children 6-12, and 5/under are free. Doors open at 5 p.m. for the beginning of the silent auction and dinner will be served at 6:30 p.m. To purchase tickets, please call (502) 713-6005.

Season ends as Warriors fall short in sectional
Written by Administrator
Thursday, 19 March 2009 00:00
Scottsburg was riding a wave of momentum as they had defeated Madison 76-60 in a convincing fashion the previous night.
They hoped that wave would carry them past a Greensburg team that knocked off heavily favored Batesville on Friday night, March 6, as well. The Pirates won their game by outhustling and outsmarting the Bulldogs in every way. The Warriors on the other hand, won their game by shooting the lights out, and scoring at will. Scottsburg planned to use that same game-plan in the sectional final against Greensburg.
As expected, the Pirates came out in a hustling fashion, dominating the Warriors in every category. Scottsburg went away from the deadly three point shooting that carried them past the Cubs, and didn't lock down the interior defense either, and allowed Greensburg to pull away.
The Pirates would lead by as much as 20 at one point, and would hold a sizeable lead until the fourth quarter, when the Warriors would get no closer than eight points, losing 64-53.
The title game was Scottsburg first appearance in a sectional final since 2005, and will likely be a favorite in conference next season as they lose only Tyler Patton to graduation.

The Black Dread
A Card of the Week for A Game of Thrones: The Card Game |
A Game of Thrones LCG | Published 24 June 2010 |
His fire was as black as his scales, his wings so vast that whole towns were swallowed up in their shadow when he passed overhead.
- A Song of Ice and Fire, Vol. II: A Clash of Kings
Hello and Welcome Back, Loyal A Game of Thrones Fans!
This week we continue our look at the final Chapter Pack of the Defenders of the North cycle of expansions, Return of the Others. Even though the sunny grasslands of the Dothraki Sea are thematically distant from the frozen North beyond The Wall, there have still been some cool additions to the House of the Dragon in this expansion set: new versions of Khal Drogo and the Hatchlings, Stalwart Shield, True Power, and more. This week we take a look at one of the last two House Targaryen cards of the cycle.
This card was voted into existence by the players of the first A Game of Thrones LCG league. The intention of that ballot was to bring into the metagame a "legendary" character, that is, one whose existence is legend or history to the current people of Westeros. Among the legendary representatives were Bran the Builder of House Stark, Lann the Clever of House Lannister, and more. Naturally, each voting player cleaved to their favorite House and this time around House Targaryen won impressively with Balerion the Black. We would like to thank all participating league players for voting Balerion into being, but more importantly for supporting A Game of Thrones in their local gaming community.
There is not much to say about Balerion the Black that is not immediately apparent on the card; among the first thing you will notice about him is that he is very expensive. As such, he is something of a closer, something you bring out once you've managed to save up enough gold to really let him loose. In which case, you bring him into play, kneel everything else, and then do a big, renowned power challenge for the win.
Of course, there's no reason why you wouldn't bring out Balerion sooner if you can. If the stars align and you manage to pull all of your Seas and Conscriptors early, then by all means, give 'em the old Black Dragon shock and awe. If you already have the other Dragons in play (or characters with Blood of the Dragon (Core, T100) attached), you can really go to town on your opponent when Balerion drops.
When it comes right down to it, Balerion is one of those cards that shares the same sort of space as Raiding Fleet (A King in the North, F87) or House Dayne Reserves (Princes of the Sun, F17): big, expensive cards with huge, impressive effects that are difficult to actually put into play, because of the expense or the conditions contingent on playing them. Nevertheless, on the rare occasion when you pull it off and they do come out, it's usually awesome and that makes it all worthwhile.
So that's it for this week's card spoiler. Come back next week for more A Game of Thrones!
Bonus Question: What is your favorite expensive and splashy card - the one card you hope will cause your opponent's jaw to drop the moment it comes out?
Based on George R.R. Martin's bestselling fantasy epic A Song of Ice and Fire, A Game of Thrones: The Card Game, playable by 2-4 players, brings the beloved heroes, villains, locations, and events of the world of Westeros to life through innovative game mechanics and the highly strategic game play. The Living Card Game format allows players to customize their gaming experience with monthly Chapter Pack expansions to the core game.
My favorite High Cost Card right now is Viper's Bannermen...
Blood of the dragon does not work with Balerion, but Rhaegar's Harp, for example, does…
Blood of the Dragon: "While participating in a challenge, attached character gets +6 STR and gains the Dragon trait."
Rhaegar's Harp: "Attached character gains all Traits."
Previously, when there have been such expense cards to put in to play, there is usually is a card to compliment it, to help reduce the cost of playing it. Hopefully that card (whatever it may be) will come in the Targaryen Deluxe expansion (whenever that will be).
Which Red Viper? I still say WED Red Viper was the best one ever and I'm glad he'll never be reprinted.
The Red Viper is currently the biggest jaw dropper. If you include errata, then it's Jaquen H'gar. I may make a silly gimmick deck to get Balerion out in play; otherwise, I don't think he'll be seen to often with the current card pool.
Blood of the Dragon: In challenges, attached character gets +6 str. Character gains the Dragon trait.
Bad punctuation and wording on card.
Re: bonus question. Not as hard to play as Balerion, but I love dropping Ser Arthur Dayne. Since he's neutral he's harder to put into play than an in-house character, but he's so cool.
Blood of the Dragon - While participating in a challenge, attached character gets +6 STR and gains the Dragon trait.
It doesn´t help me in marshalling or there is some twist?

Today's bumper music is all about regret, politics, and pop music from the mid-seventies. Gov. Scott Walker survived his recall election in Wisconsin last night, and we don't know if he had any regrets, but we do know that a band called The Walker Brothers included a guy named Scott and that they played a song called No Regrets. What more explanation do you need?

Two themes in today's bumper music: Venus coming directly between Earth and the Sun, and an audio essay by co-host John Hockenberry about how The Beach Boys, who released "Surfin' Safari" fifty years ago.
Today we asked our listeners to respond to our interview with Stephen Prothero, who's new book "The American Bible" attempts to bring together the core texts of the American experience.
Aaron Freeman, Ween frontman, announced the band's breakup yesterday to Rolling Stone from his home in New Jersey. In Ween's honor, which was formed 25 years ago by Freeman and his high school classmate Mickey Melchiondo, today's bumper music is Ween-only.
Peter Edelman is among the most outspoken antipoverty advocates in the United States. Currently a law professor at Georgetown University School of Law, Edelman has became a household name in 1996 after he resigned from his position in the Department of Health and Human Services in protest against President Bill Clinton signing of the welfare reform bill into law. In his new book, "So Rich, So Poor: Why It's So Hard to End Poverty in America," Edelman explores the intricacies of poverty in America. You can order the book here.
"When I heard the diagnosis of ovarian cancer on November 5, 2008, I assumed it was a death sentence. Lying on a gurney in a hospital hallway, I concentrated on accepting my impending mortality with equanimity. Scientific advances have not yet made a significant impact on detection or treatment and ovarian cancer remains largely incurable."
The following is an excerpt from "Up: A Mother and Daughter's Peakbagging Adventure" by Patricia Ellis Herr. You can also listen to The Takeaway's interview with Herr and her daughter, Alex.
I'm going to begin by telling you about Miss Frost. While I say to everyone that I became a writer because I read a certain novel by Charles Dickens at the formative age of fifteen, the truth is I was younger than that when I first met Miss Frost and imagined having sex with her, and this moment of my sexual awakening also marked the fitful birth of my imagination. We are formed by what we desire. In less than a minute of excited, secretive longing, I desired to become a writer and to have sex with Miss Frost — not necessarily in that order.
Karen Washington, a social studies teacher at Watertown High School in Massachusetts, sent us this message in response to Monday's story about a group of girls who were expelled for talking on Facebook about killing several peers and a teacher.

After we aired the segment "Lonely in a Digital Age" on Wednesday, we got lots of responses from listeners.

Walmart has issued a press release in response to allegations that they bribed Mexican officials.
Were it not for the subway, New York as it is today would not exist. At a crucial time in the city's history, the engineers of this ingenious subterranean railroad cleared the streets of impossible congestion and decanted the population of the teeming, insalubrious tenements of the Lower EastSide to the farthest corners of the boroughs. Because it was able to move so many people so quickly, the subway became the ultimate urban density amplifier, allowing the apartment buildings and office towers of Manhattan to be built side-by-side, and turning a 26-square-mile island of gneiss, marble, and schist into one of the world's greatest metropolises, where millions could live and trade services, goods, and ideas swiftly and efficiently.

Office of the Press Secretary
The Briefing Room
Q: Mike, does the President have a position on same-sex marriage, and if Congress passes a bill outlawing it, would he sign it?
MR. MCCURRY: The President's against same-sex marriage. We'll have to look carefully at the legislation that's under consideration in the Congress.
Q: If I can just follow up on a previously asked question. You said the President is against same-sex marriage. Is this a position he's espoused before? Because it seems to me when this has come up in the past, you've tried to kind of finesse it, and I've never heard this kind of -- that I remember, this kind of pronouncement.
MR. MCCURRY: It reflects his views that he's articulated in the past and it reflects his position on the issue.
Q: Why does he oppose same-sex marriages?
MR. MCCURRY: He believes this is a time when we need to do things to strengthen the American family, and that's the reason why he's taken this position.
Q: He doesn't think that strengthens the --
Q: To your knowledge has his position been enunciated before publicly?
MR. MCCURRY: Yes.
Q: When?
MS. GLYNN: As early as 1992, but after that as well.
MR. MCCURRY: I think -- in 1992, Mary Ellen says.
Q: How does he feel about legislation that would outlaw it?
MR. MCCURRY: Well, there is a piece of legislation that is under consideration on the Hill and we'll look at the legislation. . . .
Q: Mike, would you enunciate why you think that same-sex marriage -- or why the President thinks it would weaken the institution of the American family?
MR. MCCURRY: I haven't talked to the President at length on it, but I'll talk to him further and amplify that. I just gave you our position.
Q: Can I come back to a subject from yesterday on same-sex marriage? You reiterated the President's '92 statement that he personally opposes same-sex marriage. But has he decided what to do on this legislation in the Senate?
MR. MCCURRY: They are still going to look at that legislation. Let me just point out on that, that legislation involves, as near as I understand it, a court ruling in Hawaii. The court has referred back to lower courts for further adjudication the question of how you would recognize same-sex unions. The President just believes that's wrong. He doesn't believe in same-sex marriage.
But, frankly, it's hard to see why they need this legislation at this point because there's no compelling argument right now that that -- there's no statute pending in Hawaii, so it's something that's going to clearly be adjudicated in lower courts. There's a sense here that what is driving the public debate on this issue is an attempt by some in Congress to force this as a wedge issue.
And the President, frankly, wishes that we would do a little more to bring Americans together and not hold out any community for punitive action. Now, there's a difference between sanctioning something and making sure that you prohibit discrimination. This President's record on ensuring that there's not discrimination against gay and lesbians is very clear, and he feels strongly on that, but just as a question of what he believes, he doesn't believe that same-sex marriage -- he just doesn't believe in it.
Q: But would he sign the legislation or not? You know you've got your liaison out there saying that the President is outraged with this type of a proposal.
MR. MCCURRY: Well, it's not at all clear that this legislation, once you look into it, not at all clear what the purpose of the legislation is at this moment and not at all clear that it's going to advance in Congress.
Q: Something like 33 states are considering legislation that would codify in their state laws that they wouldn't be like Hawaii, that a marriage is between a man and a woman. Eight of them have passed it. You can blame the Republicans in Congress for making hay of it and some of them have said they'd like to make hay of it. But when the Hawaii Supreme Court remanded it back to the court, there was an immediate reaction in all these states. And if the President thinks the bill is untimely or whatever, if it comes to him, could you get us an answer at some point whether he'll veto it or sign it?
MR. MCCURRY: Sure. I will, and I suspect his evaluation of the bill would be consistent with his personally stated bill that he opposes same-sex marriage.
Q: And Mike, a follow question. Yesterday, you had made the point that the President opposes same-sex marriages because he wants to strengthen the American family, and there was a question from the floor here why same-sex marriage hurts the American family and you implied that you might get back to us on that. Is this the right day --
MR. MCCURRY: No, the only thing I have -- The President believes that marriage as an institution ought to be reserved for a union between one man and one woman. That's his view -- has long been his view. I haven't gone deeper into the moral philosophy behind it. And marriage as an institution is one that brings people together, and thus is something that does strengthen the tradition of family life in this country.
Q: Does that mean the President would not --
Q: -- the anti-abortion Democrats who want to put that in the party plank -- change the party plank?
MR. MCCURRY: I don't have anything to add to what this spokesperson for the party said, or our campaign spokesman. They both sort of indicated that they are in the platform process, we would welcome contributions from people who would like to make the argument for that. I believe it is safe to say the Democratic Party will remain a party that advocates choice for women. But we also respect, on this very hard-to-resolve moral issue, we respect those that have different opinions.
Q: Mike, is your view of this, the President's view of this mean that there will be no kind of legal recognition of same-sex relationships that he would find acceptable, the word marriage aside, or is it simply the concept of marriage with all the religious and moral overtones that it's always had that makes him believe that it can't be done?
MR. MCCURRY: Well, marriage is a union sanctioned under state laws. That's why we're dealing with the question of Hawaii and others. And the President believes that that sanction by the state ought to be reserved for unions between male and female.
Q: Mike, yesterday when you were asked about this, when you were asked why he opposes same-sex marriages, said that you think we ought to be doing things to strengthen the family, thus implying same-sex marriage weakens the family. As you undoubtedly know, some gay rights activists took extreme umbrage at those remarks. Would you care to clarify them?
MR. MCCURRY: Well, I dispute the question. I think a lot of people called this for what it is -- it was an attempt to try to divide Americans on the controversial issue. That's what this is, and that's what I saw spokespeople for the gay and lesbian community correctly say this is an issue that is just designed to provoke hostility towards gays and lesbians, and the President believes that's about right.
Q: But you're siding with the other side; you're siding with the side that is --
MR. MCCURRY: The President has a strong belief on this, and that's his belief.
Q: What about the extension of rights that typically accrue to married couples, such as health care benefits, Social Security benefits --
Q: Hospital visiting rights --
MR. MCCURRY: I'm not going to go -- there are a lot of things that you get into in the whole question of domestic partnerships and what spousal rights people might have. That's basically not much of an issue at a time when we're having trouble protecting those benefits that already exist. But the President, consistent with the view that he is against same-sex marriage sees no opportunity here to expand federal benefits as they relate to spousal coverage. It would be contrary to his view that you -- contrary to his view against same-sex marriage.
Q: So he doesn't have, for example, any plans under consideration to sign various executive orders granting rights to gays, for example, for hospital rights --
MR. MCCURRY: I've heard of no such plans.
Q: Is the President -- your previous remarks on same-sex marriage seem to suggest the President opposes the concept of a domestic partnership law on the federal law. Is that a correct --
MR. MCCURRY: The President believes that, as they are now, that those are best left to state and local governments.

Comments about Lenmar® Universal Battery Charger with LED Indicator:
My phone wouldn't charge cause I'd damaged the connection by trying to hook it to the wrong charger! Came up with the idea to take the battery out and charging it externally. And found this at Staples. Works with different types of phone batteries,too. Now I just pop out the battery, charge it and put it back in my phone.

Classroom grow kits
Tree Species Choices
Coast Redwood
Colorado Blue Spruce
Giant Sequoia
Jerusalem Pine
Ponderosa Pine
National Science Education Standards were used to develop this excellent classroom project for Life Science teachers. Appropriate for a wide range of grade levels, from emergent readers through middle school and beyond.This 100% guaranteed Classroom Pack includes everything needed for a fantastic, hands-on class project in germinating trees from seed! The Classroom Pack includes 24 individual, self-contained Student Grow Kits; 24 Full-color Student Handbooks which provide a detailed overview of the life cycle of a tree, plus step-by-step germination instructions which lead students easily through the entire germination process using their Grow Kits; a Teacher's Guide; Tree Species Information; plus convenient Name Labels for students to use to identify their Grow Kits. The Classroom Packs are available stocked with various tree seed. We've pre-selected four great trees that grow in wide ranges across North America: Jerusalem Pine, Colorado Blue Spruce, Ponderosa Pine, and Red Maple. Choose the species best suited to your region. If you have a specific tree in mind, please contact Jonsteen. We may be able to stock your classroom kits with an alternative tree species of your choice. TEACHING OBJECTIVE: The objective of this project is for students to explore, observe, and experience the birth of a tree (tree seed germination), to recognize the properties of a germinating seed, and to understand this phenomenon as part of a system – the life cycle of a tree – which is influenced by specific environmental conditions found in nature. Further, the project is designed to engage students through an active learning experience, to excite them with a growing knowledge and understanding of the natural world around them. The Grow Kits used in this project, along with the excellent Student Handbooks, have a rich explanatory power, and offer students a meaningful learning experience which is fun, engaging, and intended to lead to a life-long appreciation of trees, natural processes, and life science. Perhaps best of all, this project will provide each student with a live tree with which they can be involved for the rest of their lives!

Now that my peppers are all a few months old, I'm starting to recognize some "personalities" and was wondering if they match with what others are seeing, or if (some of) it is a result my environment. Most importantly I've noticed that my poblanos are growing tall, but with a relatively weak/flexible stem, no forks so far, and leaves spaced out quite a bit. Is this normal for these plants? Yellow Habaneros Aji limon Thai Jalapeños and ring of fire Serrano Hungarian hot wax So, do you guys recognize these characteristics? In particular, are some varieties weaker stemmed than others, or is this a result of overcrowding on my part? In any case, is there anything else than working them with a fan I can do to train them? |
Follow-Up Postings:
My poblanos: Not growing well at all. I think I got a bad batch of seed. Only one survives. So I can't compare to yours. Thai: Initially vigorous and quite tall, with small leaves that try to fill all the gaps. Not mature enough to see final form. HHW: Another disappointment. Look like thai with larger leaves, but not growing well enough to tell final form. One survives and I may kill it on general principles. Habs: Sound like a typical C.chinense (eg bhut). I'm not growing any hab (or serrano) from seed this year but your description fits my C.c's. Aji limon: Not growing. Sounds to me like you have very healthy, typical plants. Dennis |
Sounds about right to me. |
My Aji Limon are definitely very twiggy. |

So i like this thread and im growing some SUPER HOTS. Naga Viper: Starts out with two initial leaves followed by one giant spade leaf and an identical, smaller leaf. This pattern seems to repeat as the both of the original leaves grow bigger and bigger eventually producing similar leaves after. Although i would like more info on them I cant seem to find anyone with that info. Im also growing Charleston Pepper, Yatzy Pepper, and Giant Jalepeno. These plants are small as of now but I cant find anyone who seems to grow these, with the exception of the Jalepeno. Anyone wanna help? |

last of all my Yatzy pepper. Im not sure at ALL how this is going to turn out mainly because the Yatzy pepper, when mature, virtually has NO leaves and simply an abundance of fruits. |

I thought the designer had submitted updated art for the shirt, so I'd expect this to be updated before it was posted.

I was hoping to see some zip totes as well...bummer
These are totes adorbs...
I own 6 totes and the natural and black are the heavier material. The red and royal are lighter weight. Still great bags.

Good to know! Thanks for the tip
That TMNT design is a pretty clear rip-off of a classic Threadless design
Why can't we order any of the prints on totes or aprons?

We did a double take upon seeing this necklace sold by Colette, which reads "Kill yourself and die." (It also comes with a piece of artwork with the same slogan.) If there's a reference to something here, we're missing it. If there's an artistic explanation, we're not seeing it in the product description. Either way, we're not sure anything could ameliorate the message of what seems to be essentially a piece of pro-suicide jewelry. [Colette] Keep reading »

7 500 m2 dedicated to your "health, beauty and wellbeing", a luminous open space of vast volumes and noble materials... Welcome to the largest Spa in Europe, awarded by the world spa awards as one of the three finest European "destination spa", labelled Spa A.
The Thermal Spa is connected to your hotel by an elegant passageway, directly accessible from your bedroom. Managed by health and beauty professionnals, it will be the focal point of your stay, enabling you to achieve your objectives.
Plunge into the heart of our unique mineral universe, rich with its 2 000 year-old history in Thermalism. The Thermal Spa treatments, beauty treatments and new technology treatments are dispensed on the two floors, reached by a panoramic lift or staircase.
One floor, devoted to the "Signature" treatments based on Vichy Thermal waters (Vichy shower with 4 hand massage "L'ORIGINALE"...), is equipped with fitness and relaxation areas, a hammam with its ice foutain, three saunas, giant whirlpool bath, cardio and fitness rooms, a thermal water pool, a tea room where you can discover all the goodness of sparkling Vichy Célestins water on tap.
The second floor is home to the Pôle Santé, L'Institut des Laboratoires Vichy as well as numerous treatment cabins for beauty care, new technology treatments (Iyashi Dôme, Luxopuncture, BodySculptor...) and massages. Exceptional and efficient treatments for you to truly restore all your energies and to ensure long-lasting effects.
Seriously Thermal, Infinitely Spa.
Slimming, detox, therapy, vitality, wellness, Célestins complexion, prenatal, menopause, post-breast cancer... the treatments at the Vichy Spa Hotel Les Célestins satisfy all your expectations and needs. Everybody is perfectly in the know of the risks we run linked to stress, to a sedentary lifestyle, dietary imbalance, tobacco and alcohol abuse (cardio-vascular diseases, diabetes, cancer risks...) and their results on our bell-being (fatigue, depression, burn-out...) and on our beauty (dull complexion, cellulite, wrinkles...).
However, being well informed doesn't neccessarily mean curbing the risk factors.
In order to preserve and optimize the physical and intellectual aptitudes of each individual, the Pôle Santé (doctors, nutritionists, gynecologists, physiotherapists,...) focus on global health. A healthy lifestyle and emotional well-being. Based on this global approach, a personal treatment programme is proposed at the Vichy Spa Hotel Les Célestins.
More than a simple cure, the Health, Beauty, Wellness treatment programmes consist of a consultation with our specialists, an adapted "pleasure and balance" diet, repeated "Signature" treatments ensuring genuine efficiency, specific treatments adapted to your nedds, adapted progressive and regular physical exercise and conferences.
In the 17th Century, Madame de Sévigné was already praising the virtues of the Vichy waters. Since then, our resort has been reputed as one of the finest thermal spa towns in the world for treating weight and diabetes problems.
The efficacy of our treatments is based on in-depth scientific studies. This notoriety enables us to welcome a high-end international clientele, attracted by the global approach to our Health, Wellbeing, Beauty and Form themes. Those who arrive here to recharge their energies come for the exceptional natural and cultural environment, to be cared for by the best medical, sports and nutrition experts grouped within the Pôle Santé Les Célestins. "Our hosts are an actor of their health", and the efficiency of our cures lies in the repetition of treatments over time, such is the adage of Jérôme Phelipeau, the CEO of the Compagnie de Vichy and his staff. This notion is at the heart of the Spa industry of tomorrow, and is closely linked to therapeutic education in nutrition and sport. His next challenge is to "pass on the savoir-faire of the Compagnie de Vichy", notably in regard to its concept, management and commercialisation of spas, hotels and resorts that offer high-end health stays. "Our development company, Vichy Spa International, is currently studying a dozen projects throughout the world. Two remarkable centres are to be opened in Montpellier and Qatar in 2014. Our goal is to open a dozen such centres in the years to come".

Profractional Resurfacing Q&A | Ask a Specialist about Profractional Resurfacing
What is Profractional Resurfacing? The Profractional resurfacing technique relies on a technique called "fractional" resurfacing that produces literally thousands of tiny, deep columns of treated tissue while leaving surrounded tissue untouched. It is this highly specific treatment technique that allows patients undergoing the Profractional resurfacing procedure to experience the same remarkable results of more rigorous treatments while experiencing far less discomfort and downtime. These tiny micro holes promote your skin's natural healing process, encouraging the formation of new, healthy collagen to result in an overall more youthful and rejuvenated appearance while also reducing or eliminating damaged tissue caused by sun exposure, trauma, or the natural aging process. What are the benefits of Profractional Resurfacing? The Profractional resurfacing technique offers many advantages over traditional laser techniques, including: • speedier treatment times • speedier recovery • minimal discomfort during the procedure • minimal discomfort following the procedure • no need for anesthesia • pinpoint accuracy • uniform results • ability to be customized to each individual's needs How does Profractional Resurfacing differ from other laser resurfacing techniques? Prior to the Profractional system, the types of lasers available for cosmetic procedures included ablative lasers and non-ablative lasers. Ablative lasers involve high temperatures, significant discomfort, and long recovery periods, but are effective in achieving overall results. Non-ablative systems have significantly less downtime and discomfort, but require multiple treatments to achieve significant effects. Fractional laser systems strive to achieve significant effects without the associated downtime and discomfort. What sets the Profrational system apart from other fractional systems is the system's immediate removal of injured tissue. While fractional lasers treat tiny "micro-columns" of skin tissue to provide tiny areas of controlled injury, other systems leave the injured tissue in place, allowing it to slough off over time and resulting in irritation and discomfort. The Profractional system removes injured tissue during the treatment, resulting in speedier healing and less discomfort following the procedure. Is Profractional Resurfacing an invasive procedure? The Profractional resurfacing treatment is considered a minimally invasive procedure by most practitioners. What does Profractional Resurfacing treat? The Profrational system provides excellent treatment for: • age spots • sun damage • uneven pigmentation • wrinkles • fine lines • scarring • uneven or rough texture • stretch marks How is Profractional Resurfacing performed? Many patients undergo the Profractional resurfacing procedure without use of topical anesthetics, but your physician may decide to apply a numbing agent prior to the procedure, depending upon your wishes and individual needs. During the actual treatment, a special hand piece is passed over the treatment area, delivering columns of laser heat to tiny areas of the treatment zone. Most patients liken the procedure to a prickling sensation. In most individuals, the Profractional procedure can be performed in 15 to 45 minutes. This highly specific "controlled" damage removes and repairs damage while encouraging collagen to form, resulting in an overall firmer, more youthful appearance over time. You may also opt to combine your Profractional treatment with other procedures, such as micropeels or dermal fillers, to maximize your effect. What type of results can be expected? The results of your Profractional treatment will be evident immediately after your procedure, and will continue to improve during the weeks following the treatment as new collagen forms and skin appears firmer and revived. Skin texture will also be improved, and pores will be noticeably smaller. Optimal results are usually evident within 8 to 12 weeks following the Profractional procedure. To maintain your results, you should apply sunscreen and moisturizer regularly. Although the aging process will naturally continue, results can be maintained for years with good skin care, and some results, such as scar removal, are permanent. How much does Profractional Resurfacing cost? The cost of Profractional treatment will vary based on the size of the area being treated, generally ranging from $300 to $2,000 in most cases.

On FX's ''Nip/Tuck,'' Julian McMahon plays a hotshot cosmetic surgeon, but now, he'll play someone who could use an extreme makeover. According to Variety and the Hollywood Reporter, the Australian actor has been cast as Dr. Doom, the villain in the upcoming Marvel Comics adaptation ''Fantastic Four.'' As comics fans know, Victor von Doom is a disfigured scientist who lives a Darth Vader-like existence behind a metal mask and superpowered body armor. He's also the megalomaniacal dictator of an Eastern European country called Latveria.
McMahon, who stars as Dr. Christian Troy on ''Nip/Tuck,'' will join a cast that includes fellow FX star Michael Chiklis (''The Shield''), Jessica Alba, Ioan Gruffudd, and Chris Evans as the heroic quartet. The movie goes into production in Vancouver this month for 20th Century Fox (which, like FX, is a News Corp. outlet). Tim Story (''Barbershop'') is directing, with an eye toward a release date next July.

ROOT TUTORIAL And Market fix:
How to root the CX-01 and how to fix the market issue.
rooting is very simple, note: im using windows xp.
DOWNLOAD: http://www.sendspace.com/file/nshpmj
1 - Uncompresse the cx-01.zip file into your pc.
2 - Connect the cx-01 into your pc. Wait some minutes until it finishes to "boot". In the pc will show you that will need to install a driver.
3 - When the installation driver screen appears, select advanced option to select the folder driver from the file that you have already uncompressed it.
4 - when finished installed the driver go to the folder Root-Script
5 - run Root-Script.bat
a - Select option 1 and verify the connection if OK
b- Select option 2 and check if your device can be rooted (with this script)
c - if its ok select option 3 when finished the CX-01 will be rebooted.
Fix Market issue:
1 - Rename the file Google_Play_3.5.15.apk that is already provided in the ZIP into vending.apk
2 - copy vending.apk file into /system/app/
3 - Then install it.
note: To copy this you need the es explorer configured as root. then you will be able to copy it.
reboot the device an you will have it rooted and with the market fixed. Update all your applications.
I dont know yet but i may be doing a script that fixes some bugs and roots the tablet all in one click or something like that, but that takes time and work. also im still waiting the original rom so i can tweak it better i don't want brick the cx-01. Next quick update will be full market. but untill i dont get a full signed firmware. i will not be working on any thing that can brick the tablet.
Good luckLast edited by tatubias; 08-07-2012 at 09:50 PM.

source: cx-01 | CNXSoft – Embedded Software Development
Yesterday, we got Linux kernel 3.0.8 source code from Telechips, as well as some files related to Android 4.0 (Webkit + OMX). Today, I've had a look at the kernel source code and found a few very interesting things.
Read more: cx-01 | CNXSoft – Embedded Software Development
First let's get the code from github:
git clone git://github.com/cnxsoft/telechips-linux.git
board-m805_892x – TCC8923 M805 board
board-tcc8920 – TCC8920 evaluation board
board-tcc8920st – TCC8920 STB evaluation board
TCC8920 STB evaluation board appears to be relevant to products such as Diyomate A6, but if it's also used for TCC8925 HDMI Dongle such as CX-01 mini PC, Zero Devices Z900 or ValuePlus TizzBird N1.
Now let's have a look at the default config directory for arm (arch/arm/configs):
ls | grep tcc89
Read more: cx-01 | CNXSoft – Embedded Software Development
A quick comparison shows that the only difference is that tcc8925st_donglehs_defconfig sets CONFIG_HDMI_DONGLE_CLOCK_HIGH_SPEED=y.
Looking further in the source code:
#define TCC_CPU_FREQ_HIGH_SPEED 812500
#define TCC_CPU_FREQ_NORMAL_SPEED 716500
The kernel configuration enables the Android stuff, so it's probably the kernel we've got in the device running Android. Let's try to build the kernel with TCC8925 clocked at 812.5 Mhz (High Speed config) assuming you've got the ARM toolchain already installed (run apt-get install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf in Ubuntu, if you don't):
make ARCH=arm tcc8925st_donglehs_defconfig
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- -j2 uImage
Image Name: Linux-3.0.8+
Created: Wed Jul 18 20:22:07 2012
Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed)
Data Size: 3136392 Bytes = 3062.88 kB = 2.99 MB
Load Address: 10008000
Entry Point: 10008000
Image arch/arm/boot/uImage is ready
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- -j2 uImage INSTALL_MOD_PATH=build_modules modules
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- -j2 uImage INSTALL_MOD_PATH=build_modules
I cannot give it a try now, as I haven't received the hardware yet. The other thing I would like to get before hacking CX-01 mini PC is a recovery firmware, and the eventual tools to recover the device when something bad happens. I've contacted PandaWill to try to get it. The bootloader code would also be nice, but not an absolute must. However, I believe it's unlikely we'll get the bootloader source code since Telechips does not appear to have released it for the older versions of its TCC processors.

Telechips Releases Linux Kernel 3.0.8 and Android ICS Source Code
lechips has just uploaded the GPL source code for kernel 3.0.8 and Android 4.0 to the open source section of their website.
If downloading from telechips website is too slow, you can also try alternate downloads (Thanks Gabe!):
Kernel-3.0.8.tar.gz linux files - Kernel-3.0.8.tar.gz - Minus
Ics.tar.gz linux files - Ics.tar.gz - Minus
I've also created 2 repositories in github:
telechips-linux – Linux kernel source code https://github.com/cnxsoft/telechips-linux
telechips-android – Android platform open source code (webkit + OpenMAX source code) https://github.com/cnxsoft/telechips-android
It haven't looked into the source code in details yet, but hopefully, this will allow developers to customize the firmware running on Telechips TCC8925 based mini PCs such as CX-01 mini Android TV Box or Zero Devices Z900.

Thanks for the posts, alot of useful info.
i have seen this device online but never tested my self. I wonder how it compares to the MK802, looks little slower on paper
How is the video playback on this device, both streaming and from file?
Its great too see that they released the source code, we should see some customs roms.
It looks like its time for a subforum for the CX-01.† Help fight spam -> How to report spam * Blacklisted Sellers

The device works very well. the A5 for what i have read is between a cortex a8 and a9 but has low power consumption. the cpu is set into 800mhz and not 1ghz or 1.5ghz like in some sites is published. it does not get hot like an a10 chipset.
The partition on the 4gb are divided into 2 partition of 2gb each one.
1 - i did playback for 720moves i did no have any issue.
2 - also did used the device with netflix and did work perfect.
3 - also did installed imediashare for upnp client / server device and did work perfect sharing photos or music from a celphone.
4 - ted talk (video streming) works perfect.
5 - youtube app works ok too.
so the video playback is not an issue. the interface feels very good. and the firmware need some tweaking but is not an ugly firmware id dose the basic things you need. it can be improved and im working on it.
i have all ready published how to root the device.
i have developed a script put not published yet to:
a - Installing Stable Android Market
b - Installing FullMarket and other build.prop Tweaks
c - Installing Ads Blocks /system/etc/hosts
d - Google blocking apps writing to SD cards (fix)
by the moment i need some feedback from the users so i can add more stuff there and publish it.

It seems that there are similar devices like the CX-01 like c77 or other basically all are the same but the sometime have some different issues in the firmware. i was told in some devices you can use adb because usb debug is not enable and you cant access to the .development menu due it is not shown.
so to show the development settings menu install a terminal emulator en the device and type the following line. it will bring up the development menu.
Code:am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.android.settings/.DevelopmentSettings
