Areas of Global Change Research. Research sponsored by USDA focuses on understanding terrestrial systems and the effects of global change (including water balance, atmospheric deposition, vegetative quality, and UV-B radiation) on food and fiber production in agricultural, forest, and range ecosystems. It includes research on interactions between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere; the contributions of agricultural sources of methyl bromide to stratospheric ozone depletion, and possible alternatives and substitutes for this fumigant; methane generation and nitrous oxide release; soil properties, including moisture, erosion, organic matter, nutrient fluxes, and microbes; relationship of global change to forest and range fires, insects, and plant pathogens; agricultural management systems; and validation of satellite measurements.

FY98 Program Highlights. The goals of the ARS global change research program are to document and mitigate impacts of global change on agricultural and rangeland ecosystems, to assess agriculture's role as a contributor to the causes of global change, and to provide policymakers and agricultural producers with sound scientific information upon which to base wise decisions. In FY98, the research will continue to focus on four broad areas: 1) Experimental determinations of the direct effects of rising atmospheric CO2 levels, increasing temperatures, and their interaction with the physiology and performance of crop plants and with ecosystem processes that control productivity of grazing lands; 2) carbon and nitrogen cycling and fluxes between the terrestrial surface and the atmosphere, including sequestration of carbon in soils and vegetation; 3) changes in hydrological processes associated with climate change that may impact water quality, efficiency of use by crops, and availability for industry, urban use, and irrigated agriculture; and 4) the development of a suite of simulation models with required inputs for predicting responses of crops, watersheds, and managed ecosystems to global change.
CSREES is responsible for administration of USDA extramural research in partnership with the Land Grant University System. A major component of the Agency's FY98 global change research is continued development of a UV-B Monitoring Network. The purpose of the network is to provide USDA with information necessary to determine whether changing levels of UV-B have an effect on food and fiber production in the United States. Attention will be given to development of data products required by the agricultural community to assess the impact of UV radiation on plant and animal productivity. CSREES will continue to support laboratory research on the mechanisms of damage to plants and animals from exposure to increased UV-B radiation, field research on the response of biological systems to increased UV-B radiation, and the development of improved procedures for determining the effects of increased UV-B exposure on biological systems of agricultural importance. CSREES's National Research Initiative Competitive Grants program also supports fundamental and mission-linked research, which is designed to increase our understanding of the possible impacts of global environmental change on the sustainability of agriculture and forestry. Research is supported from the molecular to the ecosystem level for projects that will reduce uncertainty regarding the effects of possible changes in temperature and precipitation patterns, rising carbon dioxide levels, and altered radiation (including UV-B) on crop productivity, natural resources, hydrological processes, and water availability. Integrative projects are also supported which develop models and long-term databases that can be used to interpret the findings from individual studies.
In FY98, ERS will continue efforts to improve understanding of the economics of global change and agriculture. Global modeling and analysis will focus on agricultural links to biodiversity, land-use change, and the ability to satisfy increased demands for agricultural goods and services while minimizing damage to the world's natural resources. Farm-level analysis will focus on the role of learning in adaptation.
Forest Service global change research seeks to establish a sound scientific basis for making regional, national, and international resource management and policy decisions in the context of global change issues. Studies are currently being conducted to determine how atmospheric changes and potential climatic change may affect forest productivity, forest health, and species distributions. Ecosystem-scale experiments involving increased CO2 and other environmental factors have begun at several sites representing major U.S. forest types. As the uncertainty in model predictions is reduced, analysts may begin to describe likely socio-economic effects of global change on forests in the various regions of the United States. For example, the Mapped Atmosphere-Plant-Soil System simulates ecosystem distribution and function under current and potential future climates. Forests in the coterminous United States could experience partial decline or massive dieback over as much as 40-85% of their distribution.
NRCS provides technical and financial assistance in conjunction with conservation partners to managers of privately owned lands for the conservation and wise use of natural resources. In the context of global change, impacts affecting nutrient cycling, animal waste management, air quality, hydric soil environments, soil carbon sequestration and dynamics, and the extent and role of permafrost-affected soils are studied as part of terrestrial ecosystem dynamics.
Related Research. In addition to focused USGCRP research, the USDA sponsors significant research contributing to the assessment of global change effects on the agricultural food and fiber production systems and the forest and forest ecosystems of the U.S. and worldwide. Programs include long-term studies addressing the structure, function, and management of forest and grassland ecosystems; research in applied sciences, including soils, climate, food and fiber crops, pest management, forest fish and wildlife, and social sciences; implementation of ecosystem management on the national forests and grasslands; and human interaction with natural resources.
Mapping of Budget Request to Appropriations Legislation. In the Agriculture, Rural Development, Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill, USGCRP activities are funded under Title I-Agricultural Programs, within the Agricultural Research Service (ARS), Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service (CSREES) Research and Education Activities, and Economic Research Service (ERS) accounts; and under Title II-Conservation Programs, within the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Conservation Operations account. In the Interior and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill, USDA USGCRP activities are funded in the USDA Forest Service (FS) section under Title II-Related Agencies, within the FS Forest Research account.

Harlem vs. Columbia University: Black student power in the late 1960s
Featured Queue:
Publication Type:
University of Illinois Press, Urbana, p.249 (2009)Call Number:
Cubb LD1250 .B73 2009URL:
1968, African American student movements--New York (State)--New York--History, Black power--New York (State)--New York--History, Columbia University--Student strike, Morningside Park (New York, N.Y.)--HistoryNotes:
"In 1968-69, Columbia University became the site for a collision of American social movements. Black Power, student power, antiwar, New Left, and Civil Rights movements all clashed with local and state politics when an alliance of black students and residents of Harlem and Morningside Heights openly protested the school's ill-conceived plan to build a large, private gymnasium in the small green park that separates the elite university from Harlem. Railing against the university's expansion policy, protesters occupied administration buildings and met violent opposition from both fellow students and the police.
"In this dynamic book, Stefan M. Bradley describes the impact of Black Power ideology on the Students' Afro-American Society (SAS) at Columbia. While white students--led by Mark Rudd and Students for a Democratic Society (SDS)--sought to radicalize the student body and restructure the university, black students focused on stopping the construction of the gym in Morningside Park. Through separate, militant action, black students and the black community stood up to the power of an Ivy League institution and stopped it from trampling over its relatively poor and powerless neighbors.

Accessories and Documentation
Now we get a look at all the hardware packed into the other little box sent with the NV 120 PWM. In the back are the Intel back plates for LGA1366 on the left and LGA775 on the right side. In the middle, at the left is the supplied syringe of ZEROtherm's own TIM, followed by the top half of the Intel mounting. The screws with the two holed brackets slide under the corners of the bracket and by using the inner or outer holes you are set for 775 or 1366 mounting. In the very centre are the four screws used to mount either the Intel top bracket, or the AMD top bracket to their right.
The user's manual is pretty straight forward and simple. ZEROtherm gives you the information about the cooler as well as a parts list to make sure you are good to go with installation. The reverse shows the installation steps, but as you can see, it's pretty simple. Screw in the appropriate plate, add a back plate if required and mount it.

Deep within the tropical South Pacific, the Fijian islands, most of which remain uninhabited, provide white sand beaches, teased by clear waters and provide a cultural experience that will remain with you for a lifetime. With a multitude of activities, cultural events and traditional cuisine, as well as a wonderful climate, Fiji is a destination that you will never want to leave behind. So, if you are looking for a tropical paradise where you can take part in a different outdoor adventure every day, come to Fiji! Between its sandy white beaches and its tropical climate, is there any wonder why Fiji is one of the most popular vacation destinations in the world?
Fiji is made up of more than 300 islands - 106 of which are inhabited. The two biggest are Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, which is where you'll also find the most activity.
Fiji is home to lots of Indian and Chinese food and has a bustling nightlife. The bigger resorts will offer their own entertainment, but you will find plenty of bars and nightclubs that offer everything from Jazz music to beach parties!
The Fiji Museum, based in Thurston Gardens, hosts a wonderful collection of historical and artistic artefacts that have been accumulated over the centuries, to include primitive war clubs and weapons, traditional shell jewellery, and even cannibal eating utensils.
Visiting Suva Municipal Market introduces you to the natural tropical produce of the islands and includes fruits, local foods and a range of Fijian handicrafts. It is important to note that it is generally accepted that haggling with Indian store holders is expected, but it is considered an insult to attempt to reduce the price of goods sold by Fijians.
The Sigatoka Sand Dunes National Park is an environment of stunning beauty, with the beaches leading immediately to dense forestry. Within the national park there are burial grounds that date back to 5 BC, and along the sand dunes it is common to see partially buried pottery that has been there for hundreds of years. The history and culture of Fiji is to leave these items untouched as they are considered to be in their natural and rightful place. This venue is extremely popular with tourists, and guides will ensure that pathways and routes to and from the forest are adhered to.
Fiji is far too beautiful to spend all of your time indoors, that is why there are so many outdoor activities! As you might expect, the most popular adventures take place out on the water.
Fiji is home to whitewater rafting, snorkelling, scuba diving, surfing, and jetboating that cannot be beaten. You can also get a birds' eye view of everything from a seaplane! If you are looking for something more low-key, spend a quiet day fishing, lying on the beach, sailing, or taking an island cruise. Away from the water, you will find other adventures. Take a hike through the rainforests, go bushwalking in Colo-i-Suva Forest Park, or hike to the waterfalls in Bouma National Heritage Park.
Another attraction in Fiji is the Mariamma Temple. Located in the capital city of Suva, the temple is home to the annual South Indian fire-walking festival. Even if you are not there for the festival, there is plenty to see and do!
Suva is the capital of Fiji and host to many museums and gardens that outline the culture and growth of the country. Churches and temples are common, and are all available to visit, as long as you adhere to the local customs each one insists upon. The city has a multicultural population and reaps all the benefits of that with fine, diverse restaurants, a wide range of religious facilities and a culture of peace and respect. For a major city, crime levels are extremely low. Suva is also the site of the presidential home which is worth a visit for its architectural splendour. Many rainforest tours are available from the city, giving an experience of a true rainforest with all its flora, fauna and wildlife.
Nadi is the tourism capital, stacked with restaurants and bars, markets and shops that not only sell traditional local produce, but also a range of goods from larger department stores. The city is remarkable for its intricate craftsmanship, with wonderfully designed and sculptured buildings providing an architectural delight. The Swami Temple, a place of Hindu worship, is a stunning example and extremely popular with tourists. The Garden of the Sleeping Giant is a stunning park at the base of the Nausori Highlands and holds a landscaped jungle area and a collection of wild orchids that is the envy of the world. The Koroyanitu National Park provides a glimpse of life within the rainforest through its incredible guided tours and overnight camping facilities.
Fiji holds numerous unique and enthralling events that celebrate Fijian life and customs.
Fiji Day is held on 10th October each year and is a national day of dance, music, parades and street parties that provide colour, glamour and traditional entertainment.
As its main industry, the production of sugar, and cultivation of sugar cane, is celebrated in September of each year with the Sugar Festival, a gift of dance and music as thanks for the deliverance of the year's sugar crop.
Suva hosts the World Music Festival in October where local bands play tribal music, primarily drum based, and celebrate the gift of music.
The beachcomber island's annual Fiji swim is a one kilometre race in August which attracts the best freshwater swimmers in the world to compete at this prestigious event.
As to be expected within a South Pacific island, the use of fish in cooking is commonplace. Kakoda is a most popular dish, where the fish is cooked in coconut and lime to produce a distinctive and flavoursome dish that is as popular with tourists as it is with locals. Lovo is a special blend of fish and veg, meats and fruits all cooked within the ground in large covered pits. This ritual is worth attending for the cooking ceremony alone, but the result is a most exquisite and rich dish that has been established as a tourist favourite.
Fiji bitter is a distinctive and popular beer that holds a basic, earthy quality with a taste and texture similar to leading lagers from Germany. Booth's Gin is the Fijian drink of choice, distilled from one of the many local distilleries. Fiji grows its own grapes and ferments a subtle and smooth wine called Meridan Moselle.
Learning about the Fijian culture is best done when visiting as daily life is based on the country's culture and growth. There are some specific cultural aspects that are intrinsic to the nature of the country such as the Meke, Fijian songs and tribal dances that tell tales of love, legends, folklore, history and spirits. These spear-wielding dances are an important part of establishing Fiji's rich history with the younger generations.
It is important, if you are invited to a remote village or property within it, that you take a gift of Kava, an important and traditional Fijian drink, and present it to the village Chief. You should never wear a hat when entering a village, as this is seen as a direct insult to the Chief. Taking your shoes off before entering a property is essential, as is the rule that you never touch the head of a Fijian, as this too is insulting.

Buying BMW 328 parts from us is uber convenient. Most of our manufacturers cover their auto parts with at least a 12 month or 12,000 mile warranty. Our website never sleeps, so you can order auto parts whenever. Order BMW 328 parts 24/7 using our online catalog and ordering system. BMW 328 parts are our specialty. If you place your BMW 328 parts order before 1pm MST, it will ship within one business day. AutohausAZ is dedicated to helping the do-it-yourselfer. Question about a particular part, email our parts department at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Just in case you wondered, the designation "BMW 328" means that the vehicle is part of the "3" Series and has a 2.8 liter engine. Properly cared for and with some good driving habits, that engine can run almost indefinitely. This is dependent upon the quality of the BMW 328 that are installed.
It's always best to install factory-authorized BMW parts rather than to try and save a few bucks with off-make reproductions from China just because they're offered at a discount. BMW 328 parts should be the best you can afford, and the extra expense will definitely pay off in the long run. Some of the BMW 328 parts you should keep an eye on are the hoses and belts. According to the American Automobile Association, 90% of all roadside breakdowns are due to cooling system failures. Most of these are caused by old, brittle hoses. These should be replaced every three to five years. It's the same with other rubberized BMW 328 parts such as the belts and plug wires, since the exposure to the heat of the engine does bad things to good rubber over the course of time. Spark plug wires are one of the BMW 328 parts you should definitely spend a little extra on. Cheap plug wires can literally cause electromagnetic interference with your car's electric accessories – if you've heard a static-like whining sound on your radio that rises and falls in pitch with the engine RPM's, you know about it. Wires with variable pitch winding prevent this problem.
Mark C. - Franklin, PA: Thanks for the great service on the part I ordered. It came quickly, was well packed and the price was right.

One of the nice things about last year's Fed bank stress tests was that they were released, and everyone was like "OMG Citi failed!!," and then we all calmed down and realized that all that meant was that Citi's capital return plans had failed, so it couldn't launch a big share buyback, but it wasn't going to be smashed into dust as a warning to its compatriots. That turned out to be cold comfort for Vikram Pandit but was soothing for the rest of us. This year, in part to avoid the Vikram thing, the rules have changed: today the straight-up stress test results were released, while the Fed will approve or reject capital return proposals next week, and there'll be a lot of weird disclosure gamesmanship in the interim. Early signs point to Citi being out of the doghouse, and Goldman possibly being in it.
Also Ally Bank failed, sorry! Legit failed, not failed pro forma for capital return. So, smashed into dust.
Here is a chart you may or may not find amusing:
This chart is intended to answer the question: how many a 1-in-100 terrible days would these banks need to have in order to get the Fed's estimated trading losses?1 Read more »

This time, it's a blatant boob grope at a meet and great session in Miami. In a pictured posted on Justin's official fan club website BieberFever.com, the 18-year-old pop star showed his, er, affection to one lucky fan. Depending on your definition of "lucky", that is.
Weirdly enough, the photo was removed from BieberFever.com. But this is the internet, kids, and what goes up never really goes down.
The fan, who goes by the name of Jocelyn, tweeted her excitement about meeting her idol.
"I JUST MET JUSTIN AND HE KISSED ME ON THE CHEEK AND I'M GOING TO CRY AKFNRNKSNBDAHANDISKBEIAN," Jocelyn wrote.
Once the groping photo went viral, Jocelyn wrote: "I'M DYING HAHAHAHHAHA IT LOOKS LIKE JUSTIN's TOUCHING MY BOOB IN THE PICTURE AHAHAHAHHA I CAN'T".
She added: "Let me clear this up for people who can't read, NO I did NOT ask Justin to touch my boobs". The man himself has made no comment yet.
The Biebs performed in Miami overnight for the last show of his current US tour.
If you're wondering how he's doing post break-up, Justin spoke to Billboard about his newfound singledom.
"I'm not in the happiest place that I've ever been," Justin said.
"I'm trying to get through what I'm going through. Like I said, I have my really close friends to cheer me up and keep me going."
Justin took to Twitter just a few hours ago to say, "a lot of BS has been out there lately … seems like it never stops. Answering for myself through music", posted with a link to his new acoustic Believe album.

If you see multiple posts like this, its because I REALLY need this bean. I'm looking for the brown speckled version of the Logan Giant; seems there's at least 3 separate colors that all claim to be Logan's. I grew some a few years ago but misplaced or traded them all away... I've got very few of the purple variant left and will soon be getting another type (blue/ gray with brown streaks). Email me for my trade list!
Follow-Up Postings:
If you are still looking for this bean, I'd suggest calling some of the heirloom seed saver groups. Even if they don't have it, they might be able to hook you up with someone that does. I can't remember the guy's name, but I saw a story on TV about a guy that maintains a collection of thousands of types of beans. Many of the seedsaver groups would probably be familiar with this guy. |

Bugzilla – Bug 5012
Container in livelock state for an incorrectly mapped DN
Last modified: 2012-09-05 11:43:35
You need to log in before you can comment on or make changes to this bug.
The globus container gets into a livelock state if the requesting DN is mapped to a user that isn't in the passwords file for the situations when the credentials are delegated from the client. If the credential isn't delegated, it works fine. We have noted this problem with 'globusrun-ws' command with -J option. Without the -J option, the container appropriately returns an error. The exact command used was: globusrun-ws -submit -streaming -J -F https://<host-name>:8443/wsrf/services/ManagedJobFactoryService -job-command /bin/hostname This problem has been noted both in 4.0.1 and 4.0.3 versions and on 32 bit and 64 bit systems. Apologies if this isn't a bug. Thanks, Abhishek.
Hi, Any updates on this ?
I'm assuming this is a GRAM issue that occurs when the service attempts to write the delegated credential to the user's job directory, so I'll reassign to the GRAM team.
Doing some bugzilla cleanup... Resolving old GRAM3 and GRAM4 issues that are no longer relevant since we've moved on to GRAM5. Also, we're now tracking issue in jira. Any new issues should be added here: http://jira.globus.org/secure/VersionBoard.jspa?selectedProjectId=10363

Review: Beautiful and Bold 'ParaNorman' Scares Up Greatness
Movie Reviews By Brian Salisbury on August 15, 2012 | Comments (1)It is possible for family films, like any other film genre (or, for that matter, any other entertainment medium), to play to the cheap seats. It's just that in the case of family films, those seats are brightly colored, made of molded plastic, and help little Jimmy see over the lady in front of him at the theater. When a filmmaker resigns himself to aiming the core of their movie low enough that only the tiniest of funny bones will be struck, story and character development take an unfortunate back seat. This issue has been raised and examined in many reviews on this particular site, and often due to the fact that the family film under review is guilty of sacrificing craft for a demographic-pandering layup. ParaNorman also calls to mind this issue, but quite fortunately, that's only because it stands as a sterling example of a film that exists free of that compromise. ParaNorman is the tale of a boy named, unsurprisingly, Norman, who has been blessed/cursed with the ability to converse with the dead. This ability, as one would expect, leads to his being ostracized by his peers, mocked by his sister, and even resented by his father. Norman's typically benevolent visions of the other side become increasingly sinister and foretelling of a horrible fate facing his community. Are the sins of Blithe Hollow's past threatening to destroy its future? Is Norman the only person equipped to halt the impending Armageddon? Will saving his town finally get the […]

Hey Masutmoto, shut your dam face.
I already said I wasnt the best. What high horse is that. And I certainly didnt aim the comment at you, unless you have a some sort of guilty conscience for being a lamer! As for DM, I'm kinda tired of the random killing. Im back from ye old doom and duke nukem days and basically random killing has lost its..*ahem* charm ;p (BTW, im not mentioning Q 1, 2, or 3 cause i hate them all ;p) |

I agree with Jesus Christ. I like DM best for the fast pace of the game and the emphesis on individual skills. I've been playing it since original Unreal and even though I've been whacked a lot, I never got bored with it. Matches are short and you're on your own. Besides, I think that nothing would piss me off more than a member of my own team taunting me or trying to hit me with an impact hammer because he doesn't like something I do. From reading messages about CTF it looks to me like it happens a lot.

It might be me, but I am really getting tired of the same lame maps being cycled. They are being cycled so much that they are becomming lame in mine eyes ;p
(ex. Face, Lava Giant) I wish these servers would use a good 3rd party map. I barely see ESpirit get played, or even DiamonSword. (which i thought would be popular since it was like Face) Also, as a sub topic, is it me, or are more players out there lacking skills? Im not saying I am the best or anything, but it seems that in the old RealCTF, people where WAAAAAAAY more talented and challenging. |

Generally I'm not having much difficulty finding decent servers with (good) custom maps on them... Just look for custom maps on servers. If they've got one custom in the list, they're likely to have more.
Yeah lady, You and the IRS... |

Hey DragonAsh, get off your high horse. Yeah, some player lack the "skills", but $5 and a 6pack of beer says that you were the same way when you started playing FPS too. Alot of new people have entered the fray thanks to online Arena games like UT and *sigh* Q3A. And like ALL players, it will take time for them to develope there own skills. So give these "lame" players a chance, one day they might surprise you.

If your getting bored of the same CTF maps. Come over to some DM. Trust me, you'll find way too many skilled ruthless players over there.

You're two comments go hand in hand. A lame player often will gravitate toward Face where he can spawn snipe to his hearts content.

I kinda have to agree with you DragonAsh, I'm just an average player but depending on the server or the time of day the talent can be pretty dismal. I suggest trying either Indy Red Planet or Trinity servers from around 10pm cst to 3am cst. This is the time when most of the regular clanners get on and we usually have a big ole fragfest. You'll find DC and TRIBE members there quite alot and others like DFB and DHI from time to time. [img]/~unreal/ubb/html/smile.gif[/img]
You could always join a clan and then you would be able to play with/against your clanmates for more competition. |

I 4 1 would like to hear what some PU posters consider "skills". Is it accuracy, speed, agility, weapon selection, item selection, relic use, sniping ect. Or how about codes, tricks, sever selection, admins, connections? My point is, it could be any and all of these. Alot of varibles go into successful play. As for cheating, what's the logic? Some are just skilled at shooting off at the mouth. Either way, I love this freakin' game. As far as DM vs. CTF, there is nothing wrong with a FFA fragfest in my book. But bringing the flag home through a swarm of pissed off defenders is enough to give a monk a woody!! R U with me?!! -R

True. DM was fun anyway. For all games. I was DM heavy for the old unreal. ASMD all the way. But I seem to tire of all that running around with the same old mission if kill them all! lol Capturing the flag does seem to add some spice. True, what exactly ARE skills in ones eyes. I say, you have skills if you are a TEAM player. I have had many guys back me up PERFECTLY. In return I do the same. With that kind of team play, you will ALWAYS win.
As for those types of "skills", Evil Beaver is right too. Even at night (EST) the talent is low. Everyone wants to be a hero and boom. Base is uncovered and many the time I actually am alone defending or i have the flag and i have to go and get our flag back! lol That PU thing "the Ruiner" mentioned sounds like a good topic too. Mybe we should email them to ask if they could talk about it too. |

Dragon u have a very good point about ppl trying to be heros, many times ive been left alone in the base defending when all of them were out twiddling with their thumbs.
It's true team work can win games but if u are on a team with ppl who are new to the game and dont have many "skills" then u can be sure even the best of teamwork wont win the game for you. Gotta love UT! |

I didn't mean to imply that CTF players are somehow less skilled than DM players. Most people play both anyhow. I don't play CTF because it is more complicated than "straightforward" DM. What I meant by "emphasis on individual skills" was that in DM you're purely concentrated on combat and on taking advantage of the architecture of an arena - no team skills needed. You can selfishly and harmlessly focus on your number of kills and you don't have to worry about who's guarding your base and why everybody is going for the enemy's flag. BTW, Ash Dragon, I am still ASMD all the way [img]/~unreal/ubb/html/wink.gif[/img] --Skink |

Skink-- im still crying about how the gayed it up for UT [img]/~unreal/ubb/html/frown.gif[/img]
But either way, CTF is supposed to "teach" you how to play as a team, in a way. I mean, you catch the drift sooner or later. But it seems like people just dont learn. A lot think they are good enough to get the flag and backwhen they cant even get to the halfpoint! But I must admit, they have persistance. Unfortunatly, its not getting them anywhere like it should ~_~ |

Alot of you have brought out good points. The reason I love Ctf is because it closly resembles military stratagy. Different roles for different members, (always ultilizing their strongest traits) plus the stratagy.
To give you an example of stratagy which I have used and believe me it works: Capture the enemies flag, Wait til the enemy has captured yours then start to run back when you confront the enemy flag carrier pretend to engage him, during the skirmish fall off into outer space(FACE) well the enemy flag carrier thinks easy flag capture, the flag will be there as soon as he gets there... Here`s where the stratagy comes in: I have left a trans disc guarded by another player right at the flag, as soon as I fall out of sight I trans, sure i drop the flag but now the enemy flag carrier is going to make a beeline to his base thinking he is going to score an easy capture only to run straight into me and my guard. Well we cap the enemy flag carrier return our flag grab theirs and then cover each other on the return to score...Naturally this includes a very good guard in our base to make sure our flag is there when we get there and also a sniper on top to help cover our backs... There are a few more secrets involved in this stratagy but i can`t give them all away.........LOL He Shoots..He Scores..He gets shot in the back. new ingame name Yr2ESY Nguid 629493 |

Ummmmm.... Excuse me...... but isn't everyone forgetting about DOM???
It's a mix of CTF teamwork AND DM senseless killing and fast pace. Instead of bitching your sick of both of this or that... TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT!!! Some of the most enjoyable games I've had online were all DOM games. and even online AS games rock sometimes too. Last I checked, there was also a Last Man Standing mode too. Don't get all wrapped up in two modes and neglect the rest. That's why they're there, and it's also one of the things that makes UT better than Quake3!!!

Wanna know the other part of that secret?
HAVING THE PLAYERS LISTEN TO YOU! lol Having that happen isa miracle and a half! Domination is no better lol ust relentless running and killing. Half the time the kids dont know the target and just kill *L* |

OK here comes the pro assault people. I think its always a great change of pace, involves a lot of startegy as well. Thought the maps are getting old fast but AS Bridge just proves how a new map can breathe life into the game. Try assault too.

I wasn't complaining about the way you play, just your whole "lamer" attitude. I think the only lamers who play UT are the ones who don't give any other player (including newbies) the respect they need. Now while I'm not saying this is you... I'm just saying, we were all newbies once, and therefor you should not bad mouth ANY newbie, or person lacking of skill. Only because you were there once too. I am not ashamed of my skill, or lack there of. People should learn to play the game for FUN, there are too many people taking the game WAY too seriously.

Personally, I would like to see Conquest and Diamond Sword among others.
I enjoy all the "team games" in UT. To me, the teamwork is alot more fun than just running around trying to score kills (well, that's fun too, but you know what I mean). That is if you don't have someone on your team that pops you just after you pick up the enemy flag, like I did last nite :-( BTW - Ash, didn't I kick your a$$ the other nite?

Breakfast Topic: What's your favorite dungeon or raid memory? {WoW}
Feb 18th 2011 8:30AM I've just realised I didnt really answer the question properly. So here are two from me:
Firstly Murmur: one of those bosses that you can down as long as the tank and healer dont die. 3 dps died at 80%, me and the tank then got him down to 5% before I fucked up and we wiped. It felt epic at the time... when we wiped I was so gutted, but in a good way, we saw the funny side of it.
Second was on Stone Drake in Stone Core, for exact same reasons as above. Almost an identical wipe happened, before downing him.
A lot of bosses in Cata have given me immense satisfaction when they die, non so much as Omnitron and Conclave, two very good fights that are very satisfying to down.
Breakfast Topic: What's your favorite dungeon or raid memory? {WoW}
Feb 18th 2011 8:20AM Mine was probably getting Al'ar down.
I know its not the most difficult boss in the world, but at the time for what ever reason we were struggling (like you do). In my opinion there was something really quite intriguing about that boss fight, it was more engaging than the others we were doing at the time.
Eventually we downed him and I cant remember why but it was a somewhat fudged attempt, like I think we got very lucky with one of the mechanics or something. Suffice to say it was a lucky kill, but I remember feeling invincible afterwards.
That whole period of WoW for me was just so enjoyable. Raid content from all tiers was relevant, for example you HAD to raid the T5 stuff before even hoping to do the T6 stuff. I was in the camp that was good enough to do T5 upto Vasj/KT, but not hardcore enough to step into BT/MtH. When Zul Aman came out I was over the moon, it was a raid that was really engaging and really challenging, yet felt do-able and no matter how many wipes, it never felt tedious to me.
So I guess the TLDR is that for me, TBC from T5 to T6 is just pure fond memories.
Raid Rx: Patch 4.0.6 healing thoughts {WoW}
Jan 14th 2011 9:43AM I think you may have a point, but its worth remembering that we are still in the first tier of content and you dont know how much stat inflation will be between tiers.
I also think maybe your putting too much emphasis on spell power as a stat. We have Mastery now which in most cases provides buffs to our healing niches' in ways that spell power never could, for example I as a resto Shaman will see my spells scale justly as the targets health get lower, more spell power just increases the healing done on a target that is always at full health.
Having said that, I am no expert on the topic so I may be missing something.
Interesting though.
Know Your Lore, Tin Foil Hat Edition: The final boss of Cataclysm, page 2 {WoW}
Sep 26th 2010 5:33PM Whilst I agree that Deathwing probably isn't the final boss, I'm not convinced by the arguments put forward in this article. Having said that, it was an interesting read.
Personally, I don't agree that the every major event on Azeroth has been part of some greater plan by the Old Gods, its just not likely and puts far too much power and wisdom in their court.
Take a look at the characteristics of the major antagonists in Warcraft:
Sargeras & Burning Legion: They have an agenda - to see the universe burn & to seize all power, hence why they always go for Azeroths crown jewels (world tree and well of eternity). Cunning as hell. If anyone was to have a master plan, it would be these guys.
Old Gods: Their only agenda seems to manipulate the world and wreak havoc. Yes you could argue that they are doing this to escape their prison but its always an intricate and convoluted plan, its just far fetched IMO. I agree they would benefit more from the sundering/cataclysm than old Sarge and the legion though.
Re: the first statement, I too don't think that DW will be the 'final' boss in Cat. It has to be an Old God. We all know Deathy is as much a pawn to the Old Gods as the Twilights Hammer goons. Both pawns to a hidden master. Just like TBC. I hope so anyway, as the way TBC story unfolded was just pure WIN.
That is all. KYL FTW. x
Theming the login page {WoW}
May 8th 2009 6:26PM Yeah man the first screen was sweet. WoTLK's is cool at first, but it doesn't seem 'frontier-y' enough, especially compared to the first two. It would have been fitting to show legions of scourge marching in the distance or something.
Personally, I'd mix TBC visual theme (Hell Fires Portal is SOOOO intimidating), with vanilla's theme music. As with most things in Vanilla, the login was truly seemed epic.
I've yet to be blown away by anything in WoTLK tbh. Nothing epic, intimidating, or daunting, only a nice solid gaming experience.

Last month we had a great Q&A session so this month, again bring your tips, tricks, and questions to share and ask the group.
You can register for the meeting here:
Thanks, Mitch

Seamless Microsoft Dynamics CRM SharePoint Integration
By now, most people know about the out-of-box functionality we get with CRM 2011 for SharePoint 2010 integration. Document Management…enough said. But what if you need more than document management? What if you have specific requirements that call for your CRM 2011 and SharePoint 2010 systems to work together synergistically, performing processes that the SP List Component just can't provide? Here's where custom CRM Plugins and the SharePoint Client Object Model come into play. Patrick will show just how easy it is to start writing CRM Plugins that interface with your SharePoint 2010 environment, as well as some powerful functionality his clients have called for in the past.

Times Online reports that researchers from Glasgow University, who monitored the playlists and outbreaks of fighting at eight pubs and bars in Glasgow city centre, found that loud rock and rap music encouraged customers to drink more, increasing loutish behaviour that often spilt over into violence. The pounding rhythms also made it difficult for customers to hear one another, causing misunderstandings.

Atlantic Avenue Apartments in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant Neighborhood Comprise 150 New Units
Building only the sixth high-rise multifamily in country to receive ENERGY STAR label
Brooklyn, NY - New York City Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) Commissioner Rafael E. Cestero and New York City Housing Development Corporation (HDC) Senior Vice President for Development Joan Tally joined Martin Dunn, President of Dunn Development Corp. and Pat Boone, President of NY ACORN, and Hazel DaSent, NY ACORN Housing Company, for a ribbon cutting today at 1825 Atlantic Avenue in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood in Brooklyn to unveil the newly completed Atlantic Avenue Apartments. The Atlantic Avenue Apartments is a 7-story elevator building providing 150 units of housing. At least a dozen of those units will be reserved for adults with developmental disabilities. Other distinguished guests also in attendance for today's ribbon cutting included New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal Commissioner (DHCR) Deborah Van Amerongen, State Senator Velmanette Montgomery, State Assembly Member Annette Robinson, Council Member Darlene Mealy, and New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) Director of Energy Programs, Michael Colgrove . The creation of affordable housing in neighborhoods across New York City is part of the City's Five Borough Economic Opportunity Plan to create jobs for New Yorkers today, implement a vision for long-term economic growth and build affordable, attractive neighborhoods.
"Through HPD's collaboration with Dunn Development and ACORN, and with the support of our elected officials, this development will add to the vitality the Bedford-Stuyvesant community," said HPD Commissioner Cestero. "The Atlantic Avenue Apartments exemplify the best of our mission to provide New Yorkers with quality, safe, affordable housing that works across income levels, while serving the broad needs of the community. This development can offer a fresh start for current and future residents, provide piece of mind for the area's hardworking parents seeking quality daycare, and offer a new opportunity at independence for disabled adults who deserve a chance to live with respect and dignity."
"Working together with HPD, HDC, DHCR and NYSERDA we wanted to show that it's possible to build a beautiful building, make it highly energy efficient and still provide affordable rents and serve a diverse group of people," said Martin Dunn, President of Dunn Development Corp. "Atlantic Avenue Apartments has achieved that vision."
Atlantic Avenue Apartments is a newly constructed 7-story elevator building providing 150 units of housing to low- and moderate-income residents. In addition to amenities such as laundry facilities, a community room, and utility and storage space, the building also features a landscaped patio and children's play area in the rear yard, along with a surface parking lot. The building is located in Brooklyn Community District 3, where 2,668 units of affordable housing have already been financed under Mayor Bloomberg's New Housing Marketplace Plan.
"Congratulations to Dunn Development for their efforts once more to provide affordable supportive housing in the 56th Assembly District," said State Assembly Member Annette Robinson. "They have demonstrated their ability to get the job done."
"For Years, ACORN and NY ACORN Housing have been fighting to see vacant land in Brooklyn turned into affordable housing for families in the community, instead of being auctioned off for the development of high-end properties out of range for community residents," said Pat Boone, President of NY ACORN. "This project represents the embodiment of the values ACORN and NY ACORN Housing Company have been pushing for at the policy level in NYC; we are thrilled at the collaboration with HPD, HDC, and Dunn Development on this groundbreaking project."
Twelve of the new apartments in this building are for adults with developmental disabilities referred by the New York State Office of Mental Retardation and Development Disabilities (OMRDD). Rental subsidies and service funding are provided by OMRDD through a contract with the Brooklyn Bureau of Community Service, a non-profit organization which will provide on-site support services to the adults in these units. The organization will also operate a licensed day care center that occupies approximately 6,200 square feet of community facility space.
"DHCR is proud to have joined Dunn Development, ACORN and the City of New York to help make Atlantic Avenue Apartments a reality," said DHCR Commissioner Deborah VanAmerongen. "This attractive development brings new life to a long-vacant lot and will provide affordable homes to low-income families and housing with clinical services to people with developmental disabilities."
Atlantic Avenue Apartments was developed on vacant land, with a portion formerly owned by the City of New York and a portion owned by the developers. Dunn Development Corp. and New York ACORN Housing Company, Inc. have joined to co-sponsor the project, and ACORN will also serve as the property manager. SLCE Architects designed the project and HLS Builders Corp. is the general contractor. NYSERDA provided $300,000 in incentives to support energy efficiency improvements that will make the building perform 20% better than code. The building will earn the ENERGY STAR label and is only the sixth high-rise multifamily building in the country to receive that award. Some efficiency measures include a condensing boiler, increased wall and roof insulation, low-flow fixtures, efficient lighting systems and ENERGY STAR® appliances. Dunn Development Corp. was the developer of the first ENERGY-STAR-rated mid- or high-rise apartment building in the country.
"Investments in projects such as the development of Atlantic Avenue Apartments are key to meeting Governor David A. Paterson's '45 by 15' initiative," said Francis J. Murray Jr., President and CEO of NYSERDA. "I commend all who have played a role in making this project a reality. The benefits gained through the energy efficiency upgrades implemented at Atlantic Avenue Apartments will result in impressive energy savings and a more comfortable living environment for the residents."
"Making the highest and best use of this land took a great team with vision and experience. This is a mixed-use development in the strongest sense – there is space for children, for families and for disabled adults," said HDC Senior Vice President Joan Tally. "ACORN and Dunn Development have created homes for a new community on this formerly vacant and blighted site. This community will strengthen and stabilize this neighborhood in keeping with the ideals and goals of the Mayor's New Housing Marketplace plan. I applaud the team – for-profit, not-for-profit and government working together to make life better for New Yorkers."
"I am proud to join you today to celebrate the latest achievement in Dunn Development's proud history of developing affordable and supportive housing for our community. I am privileged to represent a number of projects developed by Dunn Development. Our community desperately needs affordable housing; and I am grateful to Dunn Development and ACORN for their vision for setting this example for the rest of the housing development community," said State Senator Velmanette Montgomery
The $39.6 million dollar project was financed in part through $20 million in tax-exempt bonds from HDC. The letter of Credit was provided by JP Morgan Chase Bank. HDC also provided $9.335 million in subsidy in the form of a second mortgage. HPD provided an $8.92 million third mortgage utilizing City Capital funds and New York City Housing Trust Fund monies. The project also received $15.53 million in tax credit equity that was syndicated through Richman Housing Resources with Bank of America as the investor.
NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD)
HPD's mission is to promote quality housing and viable neighborhoods for New Yorkers. It is the nation's largest municipal housing preservation and development agency. Responsible for implementing Mayor Bloomberg's New Housing Marketplace Plan to build and preserve 165,000 units of affordable housing. HPD also actively promotes the preservation of affordable housing through education, outreach, loan programs and enforcement of housing quality standards. For more information, visit www.nyc.gov/hpd.
NYC Department of Housing Development Corporation (HDC)
The New York City Housing Development Corporation (HDC) provides a variety of financing programs for the creation and preservation of multi-family affordable housing throughout the five boroughs of New York City. Our programs are designed to meet the wide-range of affordable housing needs of the City's economically diverse population.
New York City's Five Borough Economic Opportunity Plan
The Five Borough Economic Opportunity Plan is a comprehensive strategy to bring New York City through the current economic downturn as fast as possible. It focuses on three major areas: creating jobs for New Yorkers today, implementing a long-term vision for growing the city's economy, and building affordable, attractive neighborhoods in every borough. Taken together, the initiatives that the City has launched to achieve these goals will generate thousands of jobs and put New York City on a path to economic recovery and growth.

Our 1968 home was busting at the seams when we added another baby last year.... and about the same time, I decided I wanted to start my own interior design business. We needed some "adult" space to get away from the chaos of toys, toys and more toys! I decided to put my design skills to work and created an "industrial" style lounge/bar for entertaining and relaxing, as well as a design studio for my new business. After sketching a plan and meeting with a contractor, it was amazing to see my idea come to life. I decided to use the existing ceiling, walls and floor to save on space that would have been needed to drop in a ceiling and sheetrock the walls.
Hope you like it!
