Hey gang, need help here:
So i've got a game going and several of the group are Dwarves. I am about to deal with some daemons, taint and mutation content in our upcoming adventure and need to know how Dwarves react to Chaos. I know Dwarves have a resistance to Chaos, but would you guys please help me with the following?
- Can a Dwarf suffer from a mutation or is it only Insanities?
- Can a Daemon still talk to Dwarves in their head, corrupt them, lure them, etc?
- Can a Dwarf suffer/benefit the effects of Khorne?
- Can a Dwarf get a Mark of Chaos?
Timely help would be greatly appriciated, we are playing later tonight.

Antin immigrated to Boston in 1894, publishing her first poem in the Boston Herald while still at elementary school and her first book, From Plotsk to Boston (1899), at age 18. An eloquent Progressive whose books also included the classic immigrant autobiography The Promised Land (1912) and They Who Knock at Our Gates (1914), Antin saw herself as the social representation of those who had likewise fled from persecution to freedom. Her life exemplified the increasing elasticity of Jewish identity in modern American culture. Antin married Amadeus W. Grabau, a German-American Lutheran geologist and paleontologist, in 1901 and the couple had one child. Antin had to relinquish her goal of attending Radcliffe College when her husband assumed a professorship at Columbia University; she studied at Columbia's Teachers College and at Barnard College but did not complete a degree, apparently due to illness and the realities of domestic life that made it difficult for women of her time to combine marriage and motherhood. The marriage later collapsed over Grabau's support for Germany in WWI and conflict generated by Antin's national celebrity and financial success. Antin was an eclectic thinker BIBLIOGRAPHY:A.

It's taken more than 70 years, but 89-year-old Charlie Ball finally earned his degree from Arkansas Tech University May 12.
Ball first attended the school in 1941 but left to join the war. As the years went by, he never got the chance to finish his studies.
Ball said he made the decision to go back to college and graduate to be an example for his grandkids.
"They thought it was good, and I said the reason I was doing it [was] so that it would get them all enthused, my grandchildren, to get their degrees, too," Ball said.
"We were able to put all that together, and we discovered ... he discovered that it was possible to graduate," Arkansas Tech University President Robert Brown said.
"Everyone knows who he is, and they are all inspired by his story and that he never gave up," Brown added.
One of Ball's high school friends said he was first confused when he got an invitation in the mail for the graduation.
He assumed that it was for one of Ball's grandkids.

romance languages, typed and proofread all of his manuscripts. The Shaw home was always open to students from all over the world, on a personal and professional level. The Shaws helped rebuild bridges between the United States and Germany and Japan following World War II and opened doors for many students from India. They also traveled widely and made friends all over the world.
Professor Shaw is survived by his wife, Mary Jane; daughter, Barbara Zitzewitz; two grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren. His son, Milton Stanley Shaw, died in 1992.
Shaw was as active at home as he was at the university. In the early years, he undertook several home improvement projects: designing and constructing an underground garage, adding two bedrooms and a bath to the house, and building a garage for his parents. He was an avid gardener and always kept the yard in beautiful condition. He involved both family and students in boating, water skiing, and snow skiing. He took an active role in guiding his children's and grandchildren's education and ensured that they had the resources to pursue their interests at the best colleges and universities. He also encouraged them to travel abroad, to become familiar with other cultures and ways of life. Shaw loved children and, in his later years, he enjoyed playing with his great-grandchildren. He saw in them and their exuberance confirmation this new generation would continue on the course he had set, just as the previous ones had. He would have loved to witness that.
A few years ago, reflecting on the fullness of his life, Shaw wrote: "In looking back, there is little I would change. I have found it stimulating to work closely with young people and to see them mature and go on to take an important place in society. I believe this is the most satisfying aspect of my entire career."

A grand total of $375 million was spent on renovations to Arrowhead Stadium (now unofficially being called "New Arrowhead) that were completed this year, and it all was a big waste of our money. The renovations include wider concourses, new video boards at both end zones, renovations to the suites, more suites in place of where the old press box was, and a new press box (way up high, apparently to keep the media as far away from the field as possible), a Chiefs Hall of Fame, and a new video scoreboard along the ring of the stadium.
Yet, the negative aspects of these renovations by far outweigh the positive ones.
For starters, they took down the Ring of Honor. Previously, Kansas City Chiefs greats such as Len Dawson, Derrick Thomas, Bobby Bell, and others were displayed proudly, overlooking the field. Now, there is nothing but concrete and a new video scoreboard. This change is the most unsettling of the renovations. Not only is it disgraceful that the Ring of Honor is completely gone, but they replaced it with a scoreboard that not only doesn't show scores from around the NFL, but they show almost zero stats from the game being played at Arrowhead. In a sport where the outcome of one divisional game means so much, and in a world where many fans are in fantasy football leagues, it is ridiculous that Arrowhead does a horrible job of keeping the fans up to date. During the game, one has no idea what Matt Cassel's stat line is unless they have access to the internet. This would be bearable with today's use of technology and mobile devices, but in many cases it is almost impossible to get internet access in a crowded stadium. Most of the time, the use of the video scoreboard is limited to showing an image of "Miller Lite" or "Hy-Vee" logos. Scores from around the league are very rarely shown, and when they are on the scoreboard, they only show a couple games at a time.
Newest Chiefs Posts
The Chiefs whored themselves out on this one; instead of honoring the all time greats or using the scoreboard to make it a more enjoyable experience for the fans, they show less information than "Old Arrowhead" did, instead they use the scoreboard that the people of Kansas City paid for to make more money for themselves by only showing advertisements. Seriously, do you need the Miller Lite icon around the scoreboard 100 times?
Here's another huge negative for regular fans: what happened to Gates? Kansas City's most popular barbecue place used to sell their food inside Arrowhead stadiums to hungry fans, but it is no longer there. The food selection at the New Arrowhead is subpar at best.
There are only a few positives to the renovations. For one, the concourses are wider, so getting in and out is slightly easier, although you still have to make your way through the wave of fans. For another, the video boards are slightly better, and the Chiefs Hall of fame is pretty good, despite the fact that the Ring of Honor was removed. Also, if you are fortunate enough to have seats on the club level, you get a bunch of shiny new upgrades. But most fans aren't in the club level, so this doesn't help the experience of the everyday fan.
The $375 million for renovations that the Kansas City Chiefs wasted shows that the organization really is out of touch with its regular everyday lower-deck and upper-deck fans. If, before the renovations were done, you asked an average fan what they'd like to see the $375 million go towards, a scoreboard that keeps us up to date with stats from today's game and other games from around the league seems like a no-brainer. Another obvious answer would be better food. The Chiefs did neither of these.
Going to games at the "New Arrowhead" Stadium has been a blast this year; but this is because of the product that Scott Pioli and Todd Haley have put on the field, not the stadium itself. The Chiefs as an organization and the people in charge of the renovations should be ashamed of themselves for not only failing to use $375 million to improve the game day experience of regular Chiefs fans, but for making it worse.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Rusty, a Sussex Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier for sale in Sussex, or seeking a Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier puppy from a breeder in Sussex.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Sussex already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Sussex breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier breeders who help with Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Sussex paves the way for another one to be saved.

by George Eliot
Category: Classic Fiction / General
Publication date: 19940100
Number of pages: 880
Writing at the very moment when the foundations of Western thought were being challenged and undermined, George Eliot fashions in Middlemarch (1871-2) the quintessential Victorian novel, a concept of life and society free from the dogma of the past yet able to confront the scepticism that was taking over the age. In a panoramic sweep of English life during thr years leading up to the First Reform Bill of 1832, Eliot explores nearly every subject of concern to modern life: art, religion, science, politics, self, society, human relationships. Among her characters are some of the most remarkable portraits in English literature: Dorothea Brooke, the heroine, idealistic but naive; Rosamond Vincy, beautiful and egoistic: Edward Casaubon, the dry-as-dust scholar: Tertius Lydgate, the brilliant but morally-flawed physician: the passionate artist Will Ladislaw: and Fred Vincey and Mary Garth, childhood sweethearts whose charming courtship is one of the many humorous elements in the novel's rich comic vein. Felicia Bonaparte has provided a new Introduction for this updated edition, the text of which is taken from David Carroll's Clarendon Middlemarch (1986), the first critical edition.
What the papers say:
Middlemarch [1871-2] is perhaps the masterpiece of a writer who is now recognised as a major literary figure of the nineteenth century. Virginia Woolf hailed as 'one of the few English novel writers written for adult people' this magnificent work in which George Eliot paints a luminous and spacious landscape.............

Augmented Reality with HTML5
I've shown how to write hybrid applications with HTML5 and Dalvik. It's relatively easy to set things up so JavaScript can call Dalvik methods, and Dalvik can call JavaScript methods. I've shown that you can create rather advanced applications that composite the Dalvik and HTML5 user interfaces so they look like one to the user.
But you could just as easily have written the whole application in Dalvik, so what is the advantage of writing part in HTML5? Here are the advantages:
If you were writing a real application, the HTML5 part would be (relatively) portable to other platforms. You wouldn't have to rewrite it to port to, say, the iPhone. In the example, the HTML5 part is pretty small, but in principle, it could be much larger.
You could have kept the HTML5 part of the application on a remote HTTP server, to be updated whenever the app is run, without requiring the user to download an update.
If your application displayed information from the Web, it could be argued that HTML5 is a more natural place for Web interaction than Dalvik.
Hybrid applications, such as the example here, can be a valid way to create mobile applications that combine the power of HTML5 and the native platform. As long as the platform gives you a way to interact between JavaScript and the native application environment, there really doesn't seem to be any barrier to the kinds of applications you can write.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

AP and Transfer Credits
Advanced Placement Credit
Students who scored a four or five in A.P. European History have fulfilled the History Core requirement. If your course audit does not reflect this, consult the Core Moderator.
For the Classes of 2015, 2016, and 2017, a score of four or five in A.P. American History fulfills the two-semester (6 credit) U.S. History requirement (HIST 2401-2402). For the Class of 2018, a History Major with a score of 4 or 5 on the A.P. test in American History Placement must substitute two U.S. History electives for the HIST 2401-2402 sequence.
Transfer Credit in History
History majors who have transferred from other colleges and universities must consult the Director of Undergraduate Studies to see how the history elective courses accepted for Boston College credit by the transfer admissions staff will be applied toward major requirements. For transfer of Core history courses, see the Core Moderator.
Boston College history majors hoping to take summer school elective courses, either at BC or elsewhere, must first seek approval from the Director of Undergraduate Studies. When you meet with the Director of Undergraduate Studies, bring with you the catalog description of the course(s) you want to take. If you are planning to take a summer school course away from BC, it must be at a four-year college or university. You should expect to get elective (not upper-division) credit for summer school courses. American History surveys are usually accepted in place of HIST 2401-2402, and it is possible to take courses for non-Western credit, as long as the course's non-Western content is clear from the course description. Students intending to study abroad should remember that at least six of the ten courses required for the major must be taken at BC during the regular academic year. Anyone desiring to take a History Core course in summer school must see the Core Moderator.

Colombia Official Travel Guide
You are here:
December in Colombia means several things with names that are quite likely as of yet unrecognizable to you: novenas and alumbrados, natillas and buñuelos, though if you spend any time in Colombia during this time of year you will quickly become well acquainted with them.
In Cali, of course, December also means the internationally famous Feria de Cali, beginning the 25th and lasting until the 31st, but first we have to get through December! (But here's a video to tempt you, anyway. Full disclosure: a couple of the musicians are good friends. But I´m unbiased, I promise! Maybe.)
Returning to novenas and alumbrados. Colombia is a Catholic country, so most of the December celebrations are rooted in this tradition. La novena is a Colombian tradition that goes from the 16th to the 24th—9 days, thus the name novena. It's normally a neighborhood affair, and each night another family takes a turn hosting it. Each night different prayers are sung, focused around welcoming the birth of Jesus. As an American Jew, talking about Catholic traditions anywhere in the world is a stretch for me, but it seems that the novena is a Colombian-born advent practice, the nine days representative of the nine months of gestation before the birth of Jesus.
Many houses and apartment buildings have pesebres, nativity scenes, but don't expect plastic, glowing figures—these are elaborate, often homemade affairs, with a definite kitsch factor that can include rivers made of aluminum foil, colored cellophane, and dramatic painted backgrounds. The pesebre plays a central part in the novenas, welcoming the baby Jesus.
At every novena, amongst the singing and the socializing, you will be offered cinnamon and clove-spiced sweets typical of the season—chewy, sugar cane-based natilla; fried, cheesy buñuelos (not exactly sweet but not exactly savory, either); desamargado, sweet green papaya conserves; fried crispy hojaldras; brevas en almibar, preserved green figs; fresh queso cuajada and possibly manjar blanco, aka fudgy Colombian milk caramel. If you are really slick, you will not spill red wine over your very gracious hosts´ beige carpet, as I did the first time I went to a novena. I guess that's why Jews don't normally go to these things, in any country. It may also be why it's more typical to serve aguardiente, a clear anise-based spirit, and ron (Colombian rum is dark and delicious, if you talk about Bacardi they will run you out of town, and rightly so), where there's less of a chance of your guests wreaking havoc on your furniture.
Lest this sound like a very adult kind of celebration, let me tell you that kids love las novenas both because of the endless parade of sweets and because there are often gift raffles at the end. Another thing that kids love during this time of year is the alumbrado, the enormous public light display. If you've never seen a Colombian alumbrado, it's a bit hard to describe, because it's on a much larger scale than anything I've ever seen in the U.S. except for maybe Disneyland. Countless life-sized light displays, normally with an annual theme, are installed either along a central river or another prominent public location. As if that weren't enough, many local businesses have elaborate, and I mean elaborate displays, often combining the concepts of the pesebre and the alumbrado into one big party of overgrown livestock and cartoon-like middle-Eastern buildings (in the photo below, the lights are turned off as it's obviously daytime).
There are also specific festival days: December 7th is El Día de las Velitas, the day of the candles, where candles are lit to worship the Virgin of the Immaculate Concepción (aka Jesus`s mother) and the alumbrado is turned on for the first time. The night of December 24th, La Nochebuena, is the main Christmas event, normally consistenting of a huge family meal, music, dancing and drinking, and children anxious to see what el niño Jesus, not Santa, brought them. You will probably eat enormous tamales. You will most likely drink way too much ron or aguardiente or whisky. You will probably dance with all the senior citizens at the party while they sing along to song after song that you've never heard of. And you will have a fabulous time, even if everything is rather foreign at first, even if you're used to spending Christmas eating Chinese food (which is what Jews do), because they know how to do December right in Colombia.

I knew the FBI was after my friend and Iraq war veteran, Ben Kessler, when they turned up on my blog using the search term "Ben Kessler." The specificity of that search, like some other recent searches that landed the FBI on my site, is specific and leaves little doubt about what they are up to.
The article says the "FBI had received an anonymous complaint." I'm confident that I know who made the "anonymous complaint." Karma will catch up.
According to its 2002-05 terrorism report, "A terrorist incident is a violent act or an act dangerous to human life, in violation of the criminal laws of the United States, or of any state, to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives."
As a result, any act aimed to intimidate an individual or corporation that has a political or social goal qualifies.
UPDATE: I suggest you watch the informative video linked in the comments.

Founded in 1836, Union is the oldest independent seminary in the nation
Student Affairs
Lampman Chapel, a smaller, more intimate space, is available to the seminary community around the clock for meditation and prayer. Students and staff organize a variety of worship services on a regular basis throughout the week, supplementing the larger services of James Chapel.
Wednesdays, 5:30 p.m.Sung by the Women's Schola CantorumDirected by Mim email@example.com
Union Theological Seminary's Schola Cantorum ("school of singing") chants Vespers once a week, using the modern English of the Book of Common Prayer set to traditional Gregorian chant. Scripture lessons are chanted from Inclusive Lectionary Texts.
The center of Vespers is the chanting of the Psalms, originally composed as texts to be sung. Week by week, the Schola sings its way through the 150 psalms (with some digressions for the liturgical calendar). Doing so has been an opportunity to become more and more familiar with the extraordinary range of experiences, emotions, and faithfulness expressed by the psalmist. Equally important in the service are the silences, opportunities to meditate on texts or on the silence itself. You may participate in this cycle of prayer and silence either by chanting in the Schola or by attending as a congregant and listening with intention. You are most welcome to enter the service in either way.
If you would like to consider joining the Women's Schola, please contact Mim Warden.
Although previous choral experience is desirable, the directors are willing to teach chanting to persons who have not sung before.
Sundays, 8:30 p.m.
On Sunday nights during the academic year there will be a Eucharistic service in Lampman Chapel in the Catholic tradition. We begin at 8:30 p.m. sharp. Everyone is welcome at this liturgy where the readings of the lectionary are read and we talk about them, a Eucharistic prayer is read and a communion service follows. Please join us at any given Sunday during the semester. The service is a quiet and reflective time before the beginning of the week.
Wednesdays, 6:15-6:45 p.m. John McGukin, Professor at Union Theological Seminary
The Eastern-Orthodox Chaplaincy of St. Gregory the Theologian at Union/Columbia meets for the Service of the Jesus Prayer (Prayer of the Heart) on Wednesdays. This is an ancient and meditatively quiet service of prayer, with incense and candles. All are welcome.

Jeff (McHale)
PORT: Meets his father (played by James Brolin) and manages to put it behind him and move on.
GUARASCIO: Jeff's always had one foot out the door of Greendale, and now he's realizing it's time to pull the other foot out. What does that mean?
Troy (Donald Glover)
PORT: First real mature relationship with Britta.
GUARASCIO: The lessons you learn from a real relationship can be bittersweet.
Abed (Pudi)
GUARASCIO: Facing his greatest nightmare that the thing that he put together might not last forever… Because he's the character who's had the hardest time with change, he maybe unexpectedly rises to the occasion this year.
Pierce (Chase)
GUARASCIO: The end is near in a much more dire way than for any of other character can possibly contemplate. He sees the real end. Not just the end of school. And that cloud is following him around…. Pierce has always had a hard time seeing how he fits into the group exactly and no truer that than this year.
Shirley (Yvette Nicole Brown)
GUARASCIO: A season in which the fact that she's the rational center to the universe gets more and more cemented… She's the person that everyone wants to go for guidance because her life seems figured out. But it doesn't mean people want to listen to her advice. And that's frustrating for Shirley.
PORT: Academically Shirley is a little more competition for Annie than Annie may have first realized.
Britta (Gillian Jacobs)
PORT: Britta continues to pursue the psychology thing, but there will be somewhat of a return to her strong, feminist viewpoint.
GUARASCIO: The notion of Britta-ing something, where you screw up in the most unexpected way beyond repair? She may just take that back…
One of the interesting things is seeing Jeff grow as he does in this year of change. He's becoming the guy Britta always wanted him to be, but Britta is in this relationship with Troy. So it's a complicated situation.
Annie (Alison Brie)
PORT: Someone who's so controlling and so organized has to be open to the fact that all plans have to change. Sometimes they go terribly awry, and sometimes when everything falls apart is when the best stuff can come around… You change a lot during the course of college and maybe no one more so than Annie.
Dean Pelton (Jim Rash)
PORT: He embarks on a new relationship with Jeff. It's not romantic, but they take the relationship to the next level… This is a season that brings him more into the group than past seasons.
GUARASCIO: Who is going to have the hardest time with Jeff moving on? It turns out to be Dean Pelton.
Chang (Ken Jeong)
GUARASCIO: It's the three Rs: Resurrection. Redemption. Revenge?

Ahman Green had a particularly difficult time hanging on to the ball as did some of the other Packers who in total, fumbled 6 times Monday night. What is Mike Sherman to do with this guy who has all the running back talent in the world, but simply cannot hang on to the ball? Green set a personal and all-time team record by rushing for 192 yards against the Eagles and caught a bunch of passes as well. He is such a talent. But"¦. Ahman coughs up the ball. There is not a nice way to say it. This was the reason he was traded to Green Bay and now he is Mike Sherman's problem to deal with. Green wasn't the only one with butterfingers on a very nasty night as Brett Favre could not hold onto the pigskin either. I gave Favre a pass Monday night due to his broken thumb, but I don't know what to make of Ahman Green. Green is the most talented running back ever to play for the green and gold but his fumbling is so frustrating.
This game could well have been won by the Pack as their defense stepped it up several notches. The linebackers played particularly well, in part due to the part to the play of newcomer Grady Jackson. Jackson, who was just signed this past week after being released by the New Orleans Saints, immediately showed that he deserves a starting role in the Packer defensive line. He played extensively in his first outing as a Packer and looked good (as good as a man can look who weighs some 370+ pounds.) The fact that he became available was indeed fortunate for the Packers, but it also says something about the talent level of the other Packer linemen when he can step right in and shine. Another newcomer, Larry Smith, saw considerable playing time and did pretty well. Overall, I thought the Packers played as strong a defense as they have all year in the first half against the Eagles, but perhaps much of their success was attributable to the misty/foggy weather.
However, when the game was on the line, the Packer defense came up short and with just seconds remaining the Eagles culminated a long drive with a touchdown pass and another game was lost that could have been won. Unfortunately, this has become a reoccurring theme of the 2003 Packers.
Next week the Packers travel to Tampa Bay to play the world champion Buccaneers in the late game Sunday. The Buccaneers have not played like champions this year though and are struggling with a 4 - 5 record. The match-up will be interesting if for no other reason than it will be the first encounter with Buc's bad boy Warren Sapp since he almost ended Chad Clifton's career last year with a devastating and somewhat controversial block. The Bucs no longer have the powerhouse defense that was their trademark last year. They can be taken at home, but the Pack needs to play smart football and that starts with holding on to the football.

Original post at http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/LakeNeuron/~3/tjtMIUw3vOk/
Earlier in the week, a former co-worker brought by a couple of thoughtful holiday gifts for the newsroom – a fruit basket and a small basket of mixed nuts, still in the shell.
We've been munching on the fruit, but the nuts were just sitting there, with no way to crack. This afternoon, the editor asked me if I wanted to take them home.
For many years, my mother made Chex snack mix – which we know in our family as "nuts and bolts" – each holiday season. This led to a Thanksgiving tradition of everyone, on Thanksgiving Day, cracking nuts as we sat around the living room watching TV. A week or two after Thanksgiving, Mom would hand me a big margarine tub full of nuts and bolts, which I would take to the paper and share with my co-workers.
We kept up that tradition even after Mom's passing, with Dad making the nuts and bolts. But this year, we had a strange family schedule. We ate out, and we weren't really hanging out during the day. Dad is still on the mend from nearly losing his thumb.
Anyway, when Sadie offered me the basket of nuts I eagerly accepted. I bought a nutcracker this evening at Kroger.
I also bought a box of Chex; I may try to make a small batch of snack mix. It won't be like Mom's or Dad's. I may season it to suit myself. I need some pretzels; I think I'll skip the Cheerios, since this will be a small batch anyway.
I've already cracked about half the nuts. I'm taking a break and I'll get back to them later in the evening.

Cooling: Corsair Nautilus500 (Supplied by Corsair) with Arctic Cooling MX-2 Thermal Compound (Supplied by Arctic Cooling)
Motherboard(s): ASUS Blitz Extreme (Supplied by ASUS)
Memory: 2 X 1GB Corsair XMS3 DDR-3 1066MHz 7-7-7-21 (Supplied by Corsair)
Hard Disk(s): Hitachi 80GB 7200RPM SATA-2
Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP2, Windows Vista
Drivers: Catalyst 7.9, Forceware 162.18 (8800GTS) and Forceware 169.01 (8800GT)
Included in the lineup of cards we have from NVIDIA is the 8800GTS 320MB, and from the AMD end we have both the HD 2900 PRO which really impressed us with its high performance and decent looking price along with the HD 2900 XT. All are very good cards and all compete in that $300 - $500 AUD price bracket.
We ventured a bit into overclocking but running off limited time at the moment we didn't get to spend as much time as we would have liked. With that said though, the card is already overclocked so we didn't expect too much more. We managed to hit 680MHz on the core which is 80MHz from default but only 20MHz up from the MSI pre overclock. The memory also managed to jump just over 100MHz DDR to 2010MHz DDR. We did a quick 3DMark06 run at default which resulted in only another 350 marks.
Version and / or Patch Used: Build 130

3DMark05 is now the second latest version in the popular 3DMark "Gamers Benchmark" series. It includes a complete set of DX9 benchmarks which tests Shader Model 2.0 and above.
For more information on the 3DMark05 benchmark, we recommend you read our preview here.
Straight away we can see the 8800GT pull ahead of the pack including the HD 2900 XT, but can it continue into the more intensive benchmarks.

Evaluation Criteria for Social Media Marketing
topseos.com, the independent authority on search vendors, evaluates and ranks the best social media optimization companies in the internet marketing industry. Companies that are listed on topseos have gone through a rigorous evaluation process to determine the quality of work that is done. This often times also includes contacting several references of the company. At the end of this process, the top companies are ranked.
topseos identified five key areas that are important to social media optimization: trend awareness, brand management, consultation, methodology, and reach.
The first aspect that is used to evaluate companies is trend awareness. How well does the company understand current online social trends? What sites are consumers using more? Are there any new trends on the way that the company has noticed, that others do not yet recognize, creating a competitive advantage for their clients?
The next aspect that vendors are evaluated by is brand management. How well do they do at maintaining a consistent message between the main site of their clients and the social media profiles? How is the vendor using social media to build the brand of their clients?
Consultation is the third vital part of social media optimization that is recognized by topseos. How regularly does the vendor meet with the client to provide them with a status update? Do they provide suggestions on how to use the social networks to convert to business?
We then analyze the methodology of the vendors. This specifically evaluates the process by which the vendors work within the social networks. How does the company work to build a following? Do they use tactics that could end up getting their clients banned?
The ability of a vendor to provide their clients with the maximum possible effective reach is the final aspect evaluated by us. We assess the vendor's knowledge of the different audiences on the social networks, and determine their effectiveness at matching their client to the most appropriate audiences.
A few questions we may ask clients of these firms are:
General Queries:
- What type of needs analysis was conducted before work initiated?
- What type of a ROI were you anticipating, what was achieved and in what time frame?
- What would be 3 things you would change about your experience?
- What was your total investment?
- Rate your overall experience (1-10; 10 being the highest).
Project Specific Queries:
- What analysis went into your website before the decision to implement social media optimization techniques to your website was determined?
- How were your SMO tactics chosen?
- What types of social media optimization techniques has your agency implemented on your project?
- What was the process of implementation of those techniques? Did you implement them all and launch all at the same time or was it implement a technique, roll it out, and then evaluate it, then go on to the next one?
- What has been the impact to your conversion rates from the implementation of SMO techniques?

This stuff makes my fuzzy, wavy, color treated hair actually look and feel like smooth hair. I love it. The smell is to die for, and altho the price is a bit steep, I will always have to have this. I guess the real test will be in the summer, when the humidity hits, but, for now, I'm in love!!!
Firstly, I just have to say that I love the name of this product! Its designed to smooth and add shine to your hair. The product is packaged in a tall 200ml aerosol can and retails for around £14. The spray smells sweet, much like the rest of the range and is easily dispensed. The product does what it says, it adds shine and smoothes the hair... but thats kinda it. For that price I would at least like some hold or reduction in frizz but nope. I got this spray as a freebie in a gift set, but would not purchase this product on its own, as it doesnt have enough functionality for me. I get just as much shine from my heat protectant or smoothing serum and those products have multiple functions. On the plus side, this does not make my hair greasy or weigh it down. HTH
Overall rating: 3 (Nice but slightly expensive for what it is)
Price : 4 (Expensive for a 'shine enhancer')
Packaging Quality: 5
I was after a product that could have either medium hold (but didn't make my hair heavy/crunchy or greasy) or a product that could just stop the wind & rain having such and effect. I was trying to decide whether to try this or the chic spray. After readng the reviews I thought this was a better choice.
So far I'm pleased. It seems to help when there's a bit of moisture in the air and my hair keeps its style a bit longer so I'm very happy with it. My hair is soft and shiny and isn't weighed down.
I have knocked down my rating from 5 to 2. Sadly the last few times I have used this sparingly my hair is VERY greasy by the end of the day. It does what it says and makes my hair shiny with some hold but be prepared to have to wash your hair after each use.

I do quite like this product. It's a light/minimal hold hairspray that just adds shine and smoothness to a finished style. I have extremely thick, medium textured, colour treated hair that can tend to be poofy and dull looking. A few sprays of this product really makes my hair shiny, silky, and soft.
A few things to note. I took off one whole lippie for the smell. I HATE it. Maybe it's just me. It's sickeningly sweet (and this coming from someone who LIKES the smell of Bed Head products) with a weird chemical smell to it.
Another thing worth pointing out is that I order this through Nailco because I'm a professional hairstylist, so I pay around $11 for a bottle. Not quite sure if it's really worth its steep $25 retail price tag.

The ten best comedy events in May
7. The Urban Citizen's Garden Project Presents: A Night of Comedy for the Kids!
Presented by local comic Elliot Woolsey, this benefit show will raise funds to install a vegetable garden in the Shiloh House (a residential and educational facility for at-risk youth). And if the idea of contributing to a children's cause on Mother's Day doesn't turn your heart to jelly, the bill of ten excellent Denver comedians -- including Adrian Mesa, Kristin Rand, Jodee Champion and Sam Tallent -- should be more than enough to get you off the couch.
7:30 p.m., Sunday, May 12, at the Voodoo Comedy Playhouse. Suggested donation of $10. Click here for more information.
6. Andrew Orvedahl CD-release party
While all three Grawlix boys are riding high on the success of their Amazon pilot, Those Who Can't, Orvedahl and Cayton-Holland are doubling down on their market share of Denver comedy with the release of their comedy albums recorded last fall (Cayton-Holland's will be released on May 3). And now that these guys are known as the "upper classmen" of the local comedy scene, the release of their first albums is quickly becoming one of the most anticipated developments of the new year. This event will also include a performance by Ben Roy's band, Spells, as well as The Big Get Even.
8 p.m. Tuesday, May 14, at Lannie's Clocktower Cabaret. Tickets are $10 (includes a copy of the CD!). Click here for more information.
Nathan Lund at the Oriental Theater with Ben Kronberg from nixbros on Vimeo.
5. Lucha Libre and Laughs
Everyone loves masked Mexican wrestling, right? Okay, not everyone -- but those who are indifferent can at least get behind some comedy commentary for Mexican wrestling by the Fine Gentleman's Club's Nathan Lund, who will be joined by Jim Hickox, Jordan Doll, Kristin Rand and surf-rock band the Royal Aces for this campy night of body laughs and body slams.
7 p.m., Sunday, May 26, at the Oriental Theater. Tickets are $10. Click here for more information.

The Rapigattoli by Eduardo Benamor is a chair, but a chair resembling what it is supposed to host: a human body, or at least the bones that structure the human body.
The Rapigattoli chair reflects on the idea of adaptation and scale. It transposes figurative and geometric drawing techniques on a physical object such as a chair.
Although still a prototype, it looks organic and at the same time futuristic.
Eduardo Benamor is a Portuguese architect born in 1975. In Eduardo Benamor's words:

The revelation that developer Todd Blue asked for permission to demolish the cluster of cast-iron buildings along Main Street known as the Iron Quarter has quickly ignited concern from area preservationists, who have started a Facebook group dedicated to salvaging the historic structures.
From Save the Iron Quarter:
We have reached a critical point where action must be taken to save one of the most important contiguous spans of 19th century architecture and history in all of Louisville. We as a community cannot allow the further deterioration of a large stretch of bourbon warehouses continue to the point where the structures are permanently lost and a new report suggests if action is taken soon to shore up the buildings, all or most of them could be saved.
Last night, the Mayor's Office confirmed that Blue submitted an application to destroy the historic buildings, but said the city is trying preserve the structures.
"The mayor is opposed to razing the buildings," said Chris Poynter, a mayoral spokesman.
After hiring a structural engineer, however, The Courier-Journal reports that Blue's Cobalt Ventures issued a press release saying the demolition request is an "emergency."
With the new downtown arena scheduled to open later this year, Mayor Jerry Abramson has reportedly met with Blue several times and was pressuring him to let the string of old whiskey warehouses go. Blue purchased them for $4.3 million back in 2007, announcing an ambitious, multifaceted $50 million project.
The dilapidated buildings have become an untouched eyesore since.
