Saints Row IV has some big shoes to fill. About two years ago, Saints Row: The Third broke all expectations when it revitalized the series through absurdity. Yes, that was basically the game's theme, and it worked out better than Volition could have imagined when new fans started pouring in, eager for a taste of something different. Fortunately, Saints Row IV carries on this new legacy proudly, while celebrating both Saints Row of today and yesteryear, and marks an explosive end to this particular Saints saga.
After taking the world by storm through aggressive merchandising and capitalist know-how, the Saints have moved out of Steelport to Washington D.C., where they now occupy the White House. That's right, the head of the Third Street Saints is now head of the United States. Too bad running a country isn't as easy as it looks, especially when you're a borderline sociopath like our Saint. Luckily, political sensitivity means a lot less once aliens invade Earth. That requires a completely different set of skills.
Okay, so the game still feels the same when you're actually playing it. Saints Row IV is still Saints Row and the familiarity sticks, no matter how insane it gets. And believe me, things will get so insane; the kind of insane that leaves you drinking donkey beer whilst seated atop Satan' ladder, with absolutely no recollection of how you ended up there. All the killing, driving, and general mayheming carries over rather well, even after your Saint (now the President of the United States) gets superpowers. Many of the new activities around Steelport revolve around these powers, which can be upgraded over time like all your other abilities, just with the use of data clusters rather than money. If you're wondering how POTUS winds up imbued with godly powers, just look to the nearest army of alien invaders. Knowing the plot of The Matrix would also be beneficial.
I won't reveal much more than that, because spoiling these little plot details would be a huge disservice to Keith David, the game, and anyone hoping to play it. The point is, your Saint becomes a god among men (some would argue s/he already was), armed with fancy moves like Super Speed, Telekinesis, Force Shield, DEATH FROM ABOVE, and more. Freeze your enemies, light them on fire, or send them flying with your mind; the options are nearly limitless and all equally fun to play with.
Still, these phenomenal cosmic powers come with limitations, ensuring that POTUS never feels too strong until you've invested enough time to earn that privilege. Sure, you can feel like a god without God Mode, but getting there requires work. Power upgrades become progressively more expensive, like the numerous tiers for cooldown reduction, improved damage, and so forth. Data clusters are mercifully easy to acquire, however, and can be found scattered across nearly every corner of the city. By the end of the campaign, after completing a modest 39 side missions over 17 hours, I had collected well over half of the superpowers and their corresponding upgrades, with plenty more data left (I'm saving up).
All powers are rewarded for completing missions, and most are unlocked simply by going through the campaign. A few can only be earned by completing quest chains given by your crew. Surprisingly, none of your early powers really feel outdated as the game progresses, even as you acquire new ones. Some situations might require switching powers for the sake of tactics, but by the end of the game, my favorite power was still Ice Blast, the very first combat superpower you get.
In Saints Row IV, Steelport has been overrun by aliens, and they're a lot tougher than rival gangs. See, the city – and presumably the rest of the world – has come under totalitarian rule by the Zin Empire. Emperor Zinyak runs the show now, and you can't break many laws without the new order taking notice. When your notoriety meter goes up, the Zin won't hold back in stopping you, and trying to get away from an army equipped with superior tech isn't easy. To offset this, notoriety can be wiped by destroying a specific alien robot on the map, and its location will be marked whenever you start attracting unwanted attention from the authorities. Catch this robot, kill it, and your meter will go back to zero.
Keep that advice in mind, because you will be getting into a lot of trouble, seeing as how mayhem is the best way of taking back your turf. Stores are all locked and must be hacked before they're accessible to the President, and participating in the countless activities around Steelport further weakens the Zin's control on the world. These activities do include a lot of missions seen in previous Saints Row games – such as Tank Mayhem, Fraud, and Trail Blazing – in addition to some new ones tailored around your superpowers. The new Professor Genki activities, for instance, make use of those fancy telekinetic powers by having you throw people, objects, and props through colorful rings, like a screwed up, murderous matching game. Rifts and towers, platformer-esque activities require skillful application of your speed and jumping powers.
The number of activities available in Saints Row IV can be pretty overwhelming for some, but they are introduced gradually over the first hour or two of gameplay, during which your crew will help you become acclimated with this brave new world. The game does encourage you to keep doing activities throughout by making them into side quests for your homies, but they're still entirely optional. The rewards are generally pretty great, though.
Saints Row: The Third had its share of satire, but any such commentary we've seen before pales in comparison to the comedic relief in Saints Row IV. One of my favorite moments, when I laughed until I cried, involved a Metal Gear Solid reference during the game's satirical take on stealth games. Not surprisingly, Call of Duty is also thrown into the mix.
Above all else, however, the game relentlessly parodies Mass Effect through crew interactions and romances. Yeah, you read that right. In Saints Row IV, you can romance every single homie, from long-time friends to new allies, without any actual work. Each character seems to only have one romance scene, and the majority of them are really quite humorous; silliness aside, I like to think Johnny Gat and my POTUS had something special. All the characters are pretty enjoyable to listen to, though, and the lighthearted banter tossed between them gives Saints Row that unexpected heart it's known for.
Video game relationships aside, you'll be recruiting additional crewmates one quest at a time, and they all have unique loyalty missions. Granted, this formula is yet another jab at Mass Effect, but the recruitment/rescue missions and follow-up assignments from your crew are actually very well thought out. For returning favorites like Shaundi, Benjamin "Motherf*cking" King, and Johnny Gat, we actually revisit locations from previous games and relive past events in a bizarre adventure down Saints Row memory lane – might be a few more rocket launchers than you remember.
Volition parodies more than just the recent blockbusters, of course. Many of these story quests dial back the decades to a simpler time when 2D brawlers and top-down shooters were the pinnacle of the gaming experience. At one point, you'll actually be fighting in a virtual setting (again) as DOS commands scroll over the top of your screen, altering the world around you in real time. Another major quest sends you through a text-based adventure in order to free a potential crewmate, and chatter between Zinyak and POTUS make the whole experience all the more hilarious. Moments like these are seriously what make the Saints Row experience so damn great.
Co-op is back in Saints Row IV, as it should be, the game caters to cooperative play in much the same way Saints Row: The Third did. All missions can be done with a buddy, and co-op only activities can be sought out in Steelport, giving social gamers some additional content to roll around in. One such activity is Death Tag, during which two players must use limited powers and weapons to kill each other, even as cops and civilians bumble through their 1v1 deathmatch. What could be more entertaining than lighting a good friend on fire, and then shooting them with an assault rifle as they run around screaming with their hands in the air? Nothing, that's what.
Story missions support co-op as well, meaning you can recruit a buddy to help you out at any time should the escorting and Zin waves become too much. Unfortunately, if your partner disconnects during the mission, you'll be forced to start over. Additionally, players cannot join a game mid-mission. Pretty annoying, for sure, but also understandable, given that the missions do scale based on whether you have one or two players in the game. Outside missions, the co-op is pretty seamless, and players can drop in and out on a whim. Conveniently, you may also split up, where one person enters the world while the other is still on the ship.
After the events of Saints Row: The Third, not many of us can imagine how Volition might progress. Not surprisingly, the developers decided to go big, making the fourth game even crazier, but also capitalizing on lessons taken from The Third. Whereas Saints Row: The Third felt like an episode of self-discovery for the franchise and often aimless in its madness, Saints Row IV is much more deliberate in its delivery, more controlled. It's still crazy, just much better at it.
For me, Saints Row IV was easily the most anticipated game of 2013. Saints Row: The Third was, after all, one of the most memorable games I've played in some time. Now, after so many sleepless nights spent groin-punching aliens through the atmosphere and romancing Johnny Gat (Keith David was playing hard to get), I can honestly say that Saints Row IV does not disappoint. Everything we loved about Saints Row: The Third is here, and the numerous throwbacks to Saints Row and Saints Row 2 are the perfect touch to this chapter – concluding at least one narrative in the greater Saints Row universe. I honestly can't think of a more appropriate ending, either, or a better nemesis than Zinyak.
I honestly haven't enjoyed a game quite so thoroughly as Saints Row IV, nor laughed as hard at one. On that note, Saints Row IV has my vote of emphatic approval for doing what it does so well: making us laugh until we cry.

We are working with IV2012 and for a customer we have to generate about 1400 drawings. All these drawings we have to export to (Autocad) DWG and PDF format with the drawing number, revision, sheet size and name in the filename processed. All the parts and assemblies only have the part number as filename and this corresponds to the drawing file (idw) name. We dont want to change these basic filenames so i made a rule to export a assembly drawing and the part list, if present.
So far so good, the only problem I encounter is that I can't get the revision number outoff the iproperties from the right drawing. Say that if the assembly drawing has revision A, all the exported drawings from the part list get that revision number, even if they don't have a revision filled in. At first I export the main drawing, then test for a part list, if present, I loop through all the drawings in the part list, open them and export them to DWG and PDF. And that's the point where it is going wrong with the right revision number. It seems that the only iproperties I can approach are those from the main drawing, the file from where the rule is fired.
Can anybody help us with this problem, we have to export all these drawings at the end of this week.
Because the rule is pretty long I attached it.

Hey, I know it may be a little late, but I am doing something similar. I have had no problem getting the revision # from any and all different parts and assemblies in the drawing. My script is used to export partslists and other iProperty information from IDWs. Here is the way I select what IPT or IAM iProperties I'm going use:
' Get the Documents collection object
Set invDocs = ThisApplication.Documents
' Iterate through the contents of the Documents collection.
For Each invDoc In invDocs
' Display the full filename of the document
ListBox1.AddItem (invDoc.FullFileName)
If Right(invDoc.FullFileName, 4) = ".ipt" Then
CountIPT = CountIPT + 1
UseModelIPT = IndexCounter
End If
If Right(invDoc.FullFileName, 4) = ".iam" Then
CountIAM = CountIAM + 1
UseModelIAM = IndexCounter
End If
IndexCounter = IndexCounter + 1
Then to select which ever file you want you simply set the correct invDocs.Item like this:
Set invDoc = invDocs.Item(UseModelIAM)
Then access the the rev # like this:
Set invDocProperty = invDoc.PropertySets.Item("Inventor Summary Information").Item("Revision Number")
UserForm1.TextBox5.Text = invDocProperty.Value
I really appreciate your code to check if a parts list is present or not. I had spent hours trying to find a method to see if a parts list existed until I saw your error handler idea. I hate having to use an error handler, but I'm convinced that may be the only way.
I am just interested in jumping to discuss how to check if a parts list is present or not. Error handle is OK, but I am not clear why you did not use PartLists.Count. If it is 0, that means no part list exists.
Probably what you want to check is if a specific part list exists in PartLists? In general, to check one specific item exists or not within a collection, the first we could think of is to check its name. However PartsList has no name. PartsList.Attribute may be useful if you attach some attribute with it already.
Thank you Xiaodong, that worked. How could I have been aware of that function. When I type
"If (invDoc.ActiveSheet." I would like to see a dropdown of all possible options, but that doesn't happen after ActiveSheet, I guess because the IDE doesn't immediately know what the active sheet could be, so it doesn't give me any options. It would be nice if there was an easy one-stop-shop reference for stuff like this; maybe there is and I've just missed it?
Thanks again,, that is a much cleaner way to check for partslists.
you meant the dropdown list of the propeties & methods of ActiveSheet does not appear? Any object of Inventor? It works well in my Visual Studio. I have no experience on this, probably you will need to consult with MSDN why this happened.

Free Beer & Hot Wings: Reporters Don't Know They're On Air, Drop Curses, Insults [Video]
This week seems to be a good week for bad words making it on to live television.
During a commercial break on News 12 in The Bronx, N.Y., two reporters were talking to each other casually about the one reporter's crackly voice and what they're supposed to talk about when they come back from break. However, unbeknownst to them, what they were saying made it on to live television uncensored.

Apple finally revealed the iPad mini Tuesday at the California Theater in San Jose. The Post's Hayley Tsukayama shares some specs on the new Apple device:
There are six different configurations of the iPad Mini with different access capabilities and storage amounts. Each device comes with a 7.9-inch screen measured diagonally and has the same 1024-by-768 pixel resolution as the iPad 2. The Mini has the same dual-core A5 chip as the iPad 2, front and back cameras and 10 hours of battery life. It is 7.2 millimeters (0.28 inch) thick and weighs 0.68 pounds, just over half the 1.33 pounds of the iPad 2. It comes with the new Lightning connector, which was introduced with the new iPhone last month.

Google Adds Phone Calls to Linux Gmail Use
Five days after the announcement of Voice and Video Chat service in Gmail for Debian-based Linux distributions, Google unveiled a Gmail phone call service for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Rather than having both parties tied to their computers and logged into their Gmail accounts, one user can now call anyone in the US and Canada with telephone service. Google states that rates will remain free for the rest of the year and very low for international calls.
Google continues by saying that dialing from Gmail is just like using your phone. Just click "Call phone" in your chat list and dial the number on the number pad that appears. One could even use a contact name if there is a phone number associated with it. The browser plug-in has been tested extensively internally by Google and found to be quite useful. While Google Voice isn't required, it will provide certain benefits such as Caller ID and the ability to receive phone calls from inside Gmail.
Interested Debian derivative users can find and install the plug-in from www.google.com.

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.

Breakfast Topic: Chose your realm
Filed under: Breakfast Topics
Filed under: Breakfast Topics
honestly when i first started playing i did not know what any of that ment seeing as Wow was my first mmo. so i picked a CB realm at random, glad i did bc i met my x roomate there and my fiancee there too.
Having never liked PvP in most any game (go figure I like the way WoW does it), I picked a PvE realm under the misconception that RP realms actually, you know, RP.
Well.. Ive been playin WoW for 2 years now, all my toons have been on PvP Servers...until just recently i choose to roll on a PvE server...Much nicer leveling i must admin...and nice outside of areas like CFR/Kara/Auch...If i wanna pvp there are BGs or there is always people running around flagged to play with!
I like the excitement of a PvP realm. Sure, it sucks when you get ganked by a high level, but its fun when you find someone near you level for a fight. Even better when you see them and they don't see you, so you can stalk them until you decide to kill them.
I wish I was a rogue...
I have been a carebare, a pvper and now a RP pvper. I started as a carebare because I thought that when you got killed by another player on a PVP server he could loot your equipment, and I didnt want that.
I then joined a PVP server, but I hate the way people name themselves and guilds on a normal server. A fantasy game with people named like Pimpdaddy in a guild(Ninja Pimps for Sweden) kinda ruined the atmosphere for me.
So I am now on a RPPVP server and very happy.
I first rolled on Skywall (PVE) and had a decent time, then a few of my friends wanted me on Gurubashi (PVP-A) with them, so I went. It was all fien and good until one day I was fishing some sagefish in Stonetalon when a 60 Tauren Shaman rode up and smashed my head into the ground to get the fish for himself. It was at that point, I was done with PVP realms.
Now I am on Medivh, PVE. I don't consider myself a carebear, I just want to play uninterupted by some schmuck who gets his jollies smashing random people. I might try an RPPVP at some point in the future though.
Most of my characters are on a PVE realm. But for the last several months I have been working on a druid on RP/PVP realm. I'm not sure what I prefer honestly.
Perhaps it is because my druid is on a rather low population server, but once she got to Outland, it is rare I encounter any World PVP at all, and when I do, it's usually only when I am half dead from mob already. Same for RP, it seems to be kept in-guild, and not done out in the world.
So, I am noticing very little difference in gameplay from one type of server to other, other than if I want, I can go STV and harass people, I suposse.
Started on a PvE server one week after getting a new job ... and suddenly all my workmates were like "Hey, join us, we all play Allies on [PvP Server]..."
So I ditched my PvE Tauren Druid and switched, mainly in order to see PvE content with friends.
By now, I have a new job, few of those friends from back then are still playing ... and I still HATE open-world pvp. How much do I hate it? My WL is revered with the Kharazan faction, has seen a couple of dozen wipes on the first two bosses in SSC ... and has a "lifetime kills" counter of 214. (Which, incidentally, includes kills by people I was grouped with ...)
I hate the term "carebear." First of all, the PvE realms are the ones called "Normal" so it's pretty irritating when people try to say that if you don't roll on PvP you're some sort of subpar player.
That being said I am mainly based on one Normal server, where I happily pvp in battlegrounds and out in the world when I can. My friends picked the server on launch day because they don't enjoy pvp, and playing with friends is much more important to me than the type of realm we're on.
I was recruited by a friend, who was recruited by a co-worker. We both made our toons on the PVE server the co-worker had his toons on. I didn't consider other server types because I wanted to play with people I knew IRL.
Since then I have tried PVP and wasn't too happy with getting ganked all the time. I've not played on a RP server, but I have been thinking about giving one a try sometime.
PVE is the way to go for me. I want to level when I want to level, and when I want to PVP I'll stop on a -9 and PVP my brains out.
I play PvE, but I usually walk around flagged most of the time (not so much lately with the stupid rogue sap bug that has lasted the last three months).
I rolled o a PvE forst, just to get a feel for the game, but my freinds decided to go back to their mains on a PvP server, so I followed, and I can't really say that I see a difference. That's probly because I'm a low level (24 at the minute). It's good having level 70 freinds on a PvP server, because when I get ganked, they go and kill them for me :D
ive been playing for 9 months on a PVP server, and in the last few weeks leveled up a priest to 31 on a PVE... PVP is so much more fun! it makes a heck of a lot more sense, too. of course if you're undead and a night elf walks by, it only makes sense they would not like each other.
PVE is boring
PVE and RP are the ways to go. Dismissing PVE as "carebear" is pretty asshattish as, a) there is absolutely nothing wrong with helping other players out - yes, even if they are from the other faction! and b) getting your jollies from ganking lower level players doesn't make you "cool" or "edgy." It just proves that you are an asshat. PVP is nice, ganking and "excusing" it as PVP is beyond pathetic.
I'm on a pvp realm. I rolled on one as my first realm with friends, then re-rolled to another, and then another, which I have stayed on. I loved it at low levels, theres nothing like seeing that player 5 levels above you and trying to evaluate his gear to see if you have a shot. (This was before armory, in feralas to be exact.) But now that I'm 70, its different. People swoop down out of nowhere on their epic flyers and kill you while you're soloing an elite. If this is how people felt doing the epic hunter weapon quest a year ago, then I feel for them. It sucks, and I can't transfer because I don't want to leave all the friends i've made here. QQ
I choose to play on PvE servers. I haven't ever been big on RP, although I did get into it a little while playing CoH.
I hate dying at any time, and get frustrated easily when I do, so I certainly wouldn't join a PvP realm where high levels can and will come running through lower level zones just to be assholes. No thanks.
I do PvP on my PvE realm, but it's always going to be on my conditions and when *I* decide to do it.
Didn't know the difference when I started so I rolled on a PvE server. Leveled to 60 and started raiding. Some co-workers talked me into rolling on their PvP realm. Got the mage somewhere in the 25-30 range. Wasn't too bad. Occasionally got jumped, but was usally no big deal.
Logged in one day and TM was getting smashed by a bunch of 70s. Corpse run, tried to run away. Dead. I tried to get out of TM for 20-30 minutes. I just wanted to go quest a little, but kept getting killed by people 10+ levels higher than me. Transferred the mage to my normal server the next day and never looked back. That isn't PvP. Thats just a bunch of tools ruining the game for other people.
I started out on an RP-PvP...some of my friends really liked the PvP aspect, and we figured the RP part would weed out some of the normal flotsam you get with PvP realms.
It was actually quite a challenge - and though I never liked or got good at PvP, I developed some pretty good strategies for staying alive and avoiding ganking (until I got to Tarren Mill of course).
Then I switched to PvE because friends and a large guild were over there - good move for me because I get to play with a lot of great people, but good god is it ever ez-mode. I whipped through the remainder of my levels, and had almost 0 trouble leveling an alt. There are days when I'd like to have the challenge back...then I think - no, I really don't want to be flagged waiting outside Kara to summon people.

We recently had new vinyl siding and vinyl ventilated soffit (Certainteed InvisiVent) installed. We also had vent openings cut into the soffit because we only had a few small ones (with screens) previously. Before the vinyl soffit was installed, I asked if it would be necessary to have screens put over the new openings to help keep out insects. I was told that the holes in the vinyl would be sufficent.
Now I'm starting to wonder if I should have insisted on screens. During warmer weather, we have a lot of box elder bugs, wasps, and stink bugs around here. I don't think that the holes in the vinyl are small enough to keep them out. I'm having visions of major infestations in the attic and eventually the rest of the house. DH says screens would just get clogged with dirt and block the ventilation. I think they'll do more good than harm. Am I worrying about nothing, or should I look into getting screens installed? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I clipped this from their spec sheet. The key word is "excessive". "Where excessive insect infiltration may be a concern, openings may be covered with corrosion-resistant mesh or other screening material prior to soffit installation." |
- Posted by Ron(firstname.lastname@example.com) onWed, May 25, 11 at 12:27
My experience shows that stink bugs get into the 'v' grooves of the soffit, at the edges and can squeeze up between the edge of the soffit and the inside edge of the facia board. that is the problem with vinyl soffit. If stink bugs can do it, any bug can. i am designing a method to seal the soffit. |

Yes, it's .25 ounces. It's a tasty beer. Edit, I didn't see that this had already been answered.
Drinking this right now B-). It's been in bottle for a few months. Still yummy.....
What category for comps do you put this in? Hefe
just wanted to follow up on my extract version. in a nutshell here's the recipe I ended up using: 6lbs DME wheat .5lb DME extra light 1lb Vienna heated 4 gallons of water to 160 degrees. Let Vienna steep 25 minutes (too busy talking to my neighbor that just got a home brew kit). boiled, added the Wheat DME (added the other DME around 30 minutes into the boil -not sure why, just seemed to be the right thing to do?) then followed the posted hops schedule: 0.25oz Motueka Hops at 60 Minutes 0.25 Sorachi Ace 20 minutes 0.25 Motueka Hops 20 minutes 0.25 Sorachi Ace 7 Minutes didn't add any lime zest. made a 1.5liter starter with White Labs Hefeweizen IV Ale Yeast the night before. Cooled to 80 degrees, added water to bring OG to 1.055 (around 6 gallons total) and pitched the yeast. fermentation was bubbly by the next morning, explosive by the next evening (good thing I used a blow off tube! By the way- how do you clean out the messy tube?). on the 3rd night, I added 1.75 liter bottle of simply raspberry lemonade. didn't get to check on it till after the weekend (another 2 days since adding lemonade). Didn't seem to be as much blowoff, but could have just settled down more. still bubby 5 or 6 days later... kegged @ 1.009 for final ABV 5.41% if I did my calculations correctly. overall I really like it. I'm not a huge Hefe drinking but my german friend came over and really enjoyed it quite a bit. Biggest thing I'd like to change for the next round is to make it lighter. Mine came out more of an IPA color than a lighter Hefe.. any ideas of what I could do to lighten it up? add DME later in the boil? less wheat and more extra light? but two thumbs up on the recipe!
Finally got around to brewing up the extract version!! Stoked!
Slim - finally tried this beer last night after much excitement and anticipation. My wife and I love it. Glad I already have the supplies on hand to make another 10 gallons. Thanks for the recipe.
I am three days in on this one and I still have a pretty active airlock. Safe to add lime aid ya think?

Additional modal analysis and linear algebra are incorporated to solve problems, utilizing but not requiring MATLAB. Another innovative feature of the text is a chapter devoted to "Seat of the Pants Engineering," which brings together some of the common approaches engineers use to get a quick answer or to verify an analysis. At the same time, he applies them to all the systems that have been discussed in earlier chapters.

5 Ways To Instantly Improve Your Relationship
By KaraOh
Women are the leaders in the relationship. Men know it better than women do. A woman can change the tone and energy more easily then they realize… and it's fun to watch a man respond.
The quickest way to shift the energy in the moment–and as the primary way you interact with each other–is to remember that beneath the surface, down in his and your hearts, is a desire to be loved, accepted and appreciated.
If you open your heart for a moment, let go of the hurt and resentment, and imagine loving energy being exchanged between you, you will instantly shatter any negative feelings. That's because it's not possible to hold love in your heart at the same time you're feeling anything negative. If you choose not to do this, I would invite you to look at why. That would be a good topic for coaching.
Here are 5 fun and easy ways to instantly improve your relationship:
1) Instead of complaining, whining, or raising your voice, speak softly with clear, concise, respectful, gracious, beautiful and loving language.
How do you do that? Before you "react" stop for however long you need in order to calm yourself. Walk away, explaining that you need to collect your thoughts before continuing. Remind yourself that you love each other, open your heart to his, and allow those negative feelings to dissipate.
Next, plan what you want to say. Sometimes I even write down what I need to communicate so I remember what I need to say. Then, when it's time to talk about it, I ask that I be allowed to finish before he speaks. You'll be surprised how well this works. He'll stay open to what you need to say, you'll be heard, and if you continue throughout the conversation as two people who love each other your relationship will begin to blossom.
And don't start out with, "We need to talk." That strikes fear into the heart of every man. Instead, ask, "I need your help with something. Do you have time for me to share?" Big difference because men like to help solve problems for the woman they love.
The benefit to you? You will get his attention, his cooperation, and his respect. Why does it work? Men need clear, concise, unemotional language to be able to hear you. Otherwise, they shut you out completely. And we all know how good they can be at doing that.
2) Look for ways he makes you happy and let him know… regularly. Some examples might be: "It makes me happy that you like solving problems for me," or, "You make me feel wonderful when you tell me you love me," or, "It makes me happy that you help with the kids…and they love it." One of the chapters in my book, Men Made Easy, is titled: "Why Men Are Driven To Make Women Happy." Letting him know you're happy makes him feel successful. He needs that and you can give it to him.
The benefit to you? He'll start looking for more ways to make you happy. Why does it work? If you're not happy he feels like a failure and men hate to fail.

Lee Holmes feels his newly-promoted side have what it takes to make a big impact in the Championship next season.
Holmes is one of the few players still at Southampton from the last time the club were in the second tier two years ago.
"We need to do exactly the same as we have done this year," he told the club's official website.
"I think we have got more than enough to compete in the Championship and I know the lads are all confident of going into next year, setting some real goals and upsetting some teams."
One particular match will jump out at Holmes when the fixtures are released later this summer.
"Going back to my old club will be a massive one for me up at Derby," added the winger.

This blend is fresh, lively and flavorful. A wine in depth, the 1999 Conundrum pumps out the flavors and aromas of the varietals that make up the blend. Built around the floral/tropical nose of the Muscat varietal, the Viognier and Semillion add spicy characteristics and additional floral opulence. Sauvignon Blanc being clean and juicy adds body. The Chardonnay is included to help round out the whole of the wine. The viscous Chardonnay character together with the Muscat, leads to a richly flavored succulent finish.
Below is a listing of the wine review scores we frequently reference in our notes. While these sources remain an excellent source of information, we always recommend that you trust your own palate.

Article published in Serbian Orthodox theological journal
Father Peter Farrington's article, The Christology of St Severus of Antioch, has been translated and published in the reputable Serbian Orthodox magazine Teološki pogledi (Theological views) which is published by the Holy Synod of bishops of the Serbian Orthodox Church. The article had been reviewed by the editorial board whose members include current Serbian theologians such as His Grace Metropolitan Amfilohije, and His Grace Bishop Atanasije Rakita.
Teološki pogledi has been considering extending their usual content of Eastern Orthodox theological writers to include contributions from the Oriental Orthodox communion, and Father Peter was pleased to have been contacted some little while ago to be asked for his permission to include his article on The Christology of St Severus of Antioch in a future edition. This has now been published and Teološki pogledi and its editor, Father Aleksandar Djakovac, have expressed a desire to continue to publish articles related to Oriental Orthodox Christology.

Piaggio Aero and Selex ES unveiled plans for an unmanned variant of the former's P-180 Avanti II at the IDEX exhibition in Abu Dhabi on 18 February.
Named the P.1HH HammerHead, the product is the result of a two-year effort to adapt the business aircraft to conduct unmanned intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) missions.
"We plan to fly the P.1HH HammerHead unmanned platform demonstrator by this summer, with the aim to conduct the maiden flight of the future dual-use medium-altitude long-endurance [MALE] fixed-wing unmanned air system prototype by year-end," says Alberto Galassi, Piaggio Aero chief executive.
The first low-speed taxi test of a HammerHead air vehicle was conducted at the Italian air force's Decimomannu air base in Sardinia on 14 February. The UAS will be flown in nearby segregated airspace after the completion of vehicle control and management system integration and ground test work.

Piaggio's Hammerhead UAV is based on its P180 Avanti II airframe
System certification activities should be completed before the end of 2014, Galassi adds, with Italian military authorities to certificate the platform to enable it to be operated in both restricted and unrestricted flight areas.
The HammerHead aircraft has a more aerodynamic configuration than the Avanti II, including a reinforced wing with a 15.5m (50.8ft) span, increased surface area and higher aspect ratio. The removal of its cockpit and main cabin equipment will allow a large central internal fuel tank and avionics bay to be added, with sensors and communications installations in the nose and under-fuselage stations. A satellite communication radome is added above the fuselage, while two external hardpoints will be installed ahead of the main landing gear to carry additional ISR equipment.
Piaggio says the unmanned aircraft will offer an endurance of more than 16h when operating at altitudes up to 45,000ft, and has a targeted maximum mission payload of 909kg (2,000lb). The aircraft's outer wing-sections can be removed for transportation.
Selex ES provides the mission management system, which is based on its skyISTAR suite, plus the vehicle management and control system, air data terminal and ground control segment. The Finmeccanica company will also supply sensors including a Seaspray 7300E search radar, plus communications and datalink equipment.
The companies believe the HammerHead could meet requirements such as Canada's joint unmanned surveillance target attack system programme for a MALE UAS.

Zambia sees economic growth of 7%
Comment on this storyKasama, Zambia - Economic growth in Zambia should reach 7 percent by the end of 2013, deputy central bank governor Bwalya Ng'andu said on Friday.
Inflation in Africa's top copper producer should also end the year around 6 percent, Ng'andu told reporters in Kasama, about 800 km north of the capital Lusaka.
"On balance we are reasonably confident that we should be ending 2013 somewhere around 6 percent inflation and 7 percent growth," he said, speaking after the launch of a new branch of Indo-Zambia Bank.
"The biggest factor for inflation in this country is food and as long as we control that variable we should be okay. Already we are at 7 percent inflation and without any distabilising pressures we should be able to get close to 6 percent." - Reuters

I bought this plant because I had never seen anything like it, and it looks very healthy. After doing a little research I think it might be a crested echeveria, but having never seen one, and still learning about the different types of succulents, I'm not sure. Any thoughts as to what I have? Also, should I/can I divide it so I can see more of the stem? I will add another picture showing the stems. Thanks for any thoughts and help you are all so generous providing! Teresa |

Wii Sports not only demonstrated the potential of Wii's motion-detecting controller, but it also served as a blueprint for how future sports game should work on Wii.
Now we're waiting on dedicated titles for each sport and, no surprise, EA is the first to serve up a fully-fledged golf sim in the form of Tiger Woods PGA Tour 07.
The control system is obvious - the Wii Remote becomes the club as you stand, serious-faced, in front of your TV and swing the Remote like you're Tiger himself.
Just like Wii Sports, you can prepare the perfect shot by tapping the minus button to engage practice mode, which lets you take a few trial swings without hitting the ball. Once you're all set, just hold the A button and swing to give the ball a good clout.
If you twist your wrist slightly as you swing you can put curve on the ball, as well as add top-spin and back-spin. Of course, you have to consider the wind direction and speed, which also affects your ball's trajectory.
This all sounds pretty intuitive, but it the whole system doesn't quite work as you would expect. Oddly the power you put into your shot depends not on how fast you swing the Remote, but on how far you raise the Remote behind you before swinging. Maybe there are some safety issues behind that decision?
So if you want to swing at full power, you raise the remote right up before you swing. But for half power you only raise the Remote back to just around hip-height.
To us that's totally illogical because, considering the Wii is intended to make games accessible to the whole family, if you give the Remote to your golf-loving granddad he will expect the speed of his arm movements to convert into his in-game shot - as it is in Wii Sports Golf.
Even if you were to take this power-selecting system as it is, you would expect the motion detection to be AT LEAST in line with Wii Sports. You can see even the most subtle of movements being mimicked on screen in Wii Baseball and Wii Golf. The version of Tiger Woods we played wasn't nearly as responsive.
We found it a struggle to hit shots in a straight line because the Remote had to be held DEAD level throughout the shot - near impossible when you want to get stuck in with a hearty swing. We're humans. Not robots, OR real golfers for that matter.
We expected Wii Tiger Woods to be easier and more intuitive; fact is it's hard as nails.
We do bear in mind however, that the version we played was not the final game and could receive a considerable amount of polish before it hits shops on March 16.
The other good news is that even if the Wii Remote controls do end up disappointing, the game has a Nunchuk control option which allows you to swing with the analogue stick as done on other consoles.
That obviously wipes out any control issues and lets you enjoy the solid game of golf that the Tiger Woods games are known for being. Controls aside, Tiger Woods on Wii has all the same options as the version that released on other consoles late last year. This includes the Tiger Challenge mode, which has you competing in golf matches around the world to win the chance to challenge the Tiger-tron himself.
We'll be hounding EA for a finished copy of the game to see if any of the control issues are sorted. Fingers crossed, eh?

Chicago Aldermen Running Political Operations On City Property?
September 12, 2005
The Illinois Leader, an online conservative publication focusing in part on the dank moral cesspool of Chicago Democratic party politics, reports Cook County Republicans have filed a complaint with the state board of elections that Democratic city aldermen are using their city-funded ward offices not only for constituent services, but political operations as well. Without properly dividing up the operations, and paying the public landlord for space used for political purposes, the GOP alleges, based on review of public records. Yes, the allegations are probably true. Yes, this kind of thing has been going on forever. And finally, yes, there are worse, and fairly recent episodes of public corruption in my old hometown of Chicago. But regarding Chicago politics especially, I'm firm believer in the "slippery slope" corruption standard, which might also be termed the "broken windows" theory of government corruption. Winking at the supposedly "little things," like political operations on city property, by employees punching a city timeclock, paves the way for even worse abuses. And has been for years. More on the current allegations from The Leader: The allegation states that Democratic aldermen are illegally combining their political committee offices with their city funded aldermanic offices. Tom Swiss, the executive director of the Cook County Republican Party, submitted an affidavit in which he testified that an investigation of 16 different Democratic alderman offices revealed flagrant violations of the Illinois Election Code. What can I say. Yes, he's a Democrat. But he knows The Machine for what it is, and - unlike Chicago's current mayor - he knows the fate of Chicago and its suburbs are inextricably linked, knowledge gained in part due to the reach of the U.S. Congressional district he currently represents. Run, Jesse (Jr.), run! TECHNORATI TAGS: CHICAGO DEMOCRATS, CORRUPTION, COOK COUNTY REPUBLICANS, JESSE JACKSON JR. TO COMMENT: The regular "comment" feature is not in operation. E-mail comments to address under "Contact" on main page masthead, and I'll add them, here. Posted by Matt Rosenberg at September 12, 2005 05:13 PM Post a comment

I have a new picket fence around my front yard and would like to plant a couple of roses that would drape or climb on the fence. I'm looking for a good bloomer that is disease resistant. I've not had good luck with roses in the past. Any suggestions? Thanks. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I am not great on roses, you might check over on the Rose forum and Antique Rose forum for more advice. However in our northern area, I have pretty good luck with Forth of July a newer rose. I really like the streaky red and white flowers, and it smells pretty good. They have a spattered look, each bloom is a different pattern, which I love. It blooms off and on during the season. Another you might try is New Dawn, a light pink, that is quite popular, grows a lot, and blooms all season I believe. It is a name they give out for covering arbors, trellis'. I have had OK luck with the old Blaze, a red rose. Does bloom sporadically, gets some spots in my location. My mother had one for years, bloomed all season at her house, great flowers. I will be trying some You might also consider mixing a vine or two, in with your rose. Gives good coverage to fence, blooms in other colors, maybe at different times for more flowering. I like Clematis, lots of colors and flower shapes to choose from, have early, mid and late bloomers. Do need pruning yearly to get best flowering. Jackmani a deep purple, has been extremely reliable for me, with the longest blooming time over most of summer, no self seeding. Tantigua, yellow, bell-shaped flower Clematis, is also pretty tough, blooms here both spring and some in fall, does reseed easily. Many other flower shapes and colors. Takes a year or two to get Clematis going, then just continues to improve. I just found out about a rose nursery in Belleville near Ann Arbor. It is called Great Lakes Roses, they grow many roses on their own roots. I was looking for a particular rose, antique, tougher on her own roots (I believe) and found it there. I just have to get over and get it picked up! People referring to this nursery, speak very highly of the roses sold there. Lots of antiques, which can be tougher, smell wonderful, but often only bloom once a season. They have a website, you could check many kinds of roses there. I think they do answer questions, you could ask about disease resistance, care in cold locations, hardiness, AND they are in our area, deal with the same problems. Maybe ask them for rose suggestions also. |
Try rugosas, pavement series, they are supposed to stay small, are very tough. Also Jung nursery sends me a catalogue. And they have all kinds and sizes of Canadian Explorer roses grown on their own root. I have three of the climber types and they are way too big for a picket fence. I just let them grow how they want into a big shrub that is an explosion of bloom. The canes just arch over to the ground. They get chewed on just a little bit, but I don't spray or fertilize. They have almost no winter dieback. I have real tough clay soil. I don't even water, anything. I just mulch heavly with wood chip. And they grow out by the road. NOthing bothers the rugosas, not one bug, not one disease. And most of the Candian Explors are part rugosa. The pavement serious is supposed to stay small, but the one on the south side of my house is a good four foot tall now, and five foot wide. |
Don Juan is unbeatable. A continuous bloomer, rich red blooms, very dark green leaves with red "veins", and so disease resistant you can just forget about it. Oh yeah, and very fragrant. It seems to lack nothing. |

I am going to configure dnsmasq for my local home network but I am not sure if I understand it. Basically I have a simple network at home:
laptop 192.168.0.10
phone (galaxy s2 - ubuntu touch with LAMP server) 192.168.0.14
router is 192.168.0.1.
I have installed dnsmasq on my phone where I have a LAMP server. My problem is that every time when I create new site on my server I have to add it to my /etc/hosts file on my laptop like that:
192.168.0.10 testingsite.dev
Basically I would like to have it done by dnsmasq automatically but I don't know how to set it up for the network. It works locally (I mean on the phone) but not for computers which belong to the network. Does anyone know how the /etc/dnsmasq.conf
file should look like and do I need do something extra?

Does anyone know if there are National rules/regulations that apply to the each state level? It appears to me that each state makes up the rules as they see fit. Example; dues, there is a state that has a $10 due but is not mandatory(strange). The adjacent state has a $25 due that if not paid by Jan 1st, you sit out for the year(makes sense).
Would like your thoughts on how rules/regulations are determined in your state. Thanks Lynn |

The Master Gardener program is a volunteer program administered by each state's land grant college which also runs the Co-operative Extension Service. Each state runs the program differently,which accounts for the wide variation in the charge to enroll in the program. Also each MG unit is often unique unto itself. The local MG unit is supposed to be supervised by the local Extension Agent but if there isn't an agent the MG unit can run itself, under state guidelines of course.....or supposedly. Each agent runs the MG program differently, some are very involved, others aren't. Some MG units levy dues, others don't. The two I've been involved in do not. The dues may offset some costs incurred by the unit, my units use plant sale proceeds. All this being said, or written, each MG program is run in a manner often unique to it's state and even it's county. So while the MG program is nationwide it's administered at the state level and overseen by the local extension agent, if there is one. Don't know if this helps or just muddies the water, |
Seems that you see it the way I see it. I just didn't know if there was a national bylaw hidden under a rock some where. Thanks Lynn |

Rihanna Lights Up...Again (PHOTOS)
The singer smokes in the outtakes from her 'Rolling Stone' shoot with Terry Richardson.
Is there any part of life Rihanna doesn't blaze through?
Following her Rolling Stone cover that hit stands on Friday, the "Diamonds" singer revealed outtakes from the photo shoot with famed photographer-to-the-stars Terry Richardson. "Can't wait to do it again, you phucking rule bro," she wrote on Instagram, before sharing a string of selects that didn't make the cut for her cover story.
"terryrichardsonstudio would throw u on set on your way to or out of the car," she tweeted, sharing "Exhibit A," a snap of her donning a belly- and tattoo-baring bralette, high-waited black denim cutoffs, and an oversize camouflage-print jacket, hiding her undone hair under a polo bucket hat and her sans-makeup mug with black shades.But other outtakes reveal a more glammed-up Rihanna, with side-slicked locks and a red lips as she slipped into a curve-hugging black pencil skirt, a white button-down, and Manolo Blahnik Chaos sandals, all topped with a blooms-embroidered leather jacket designed by Christopher Kan. Wearing a simple gold necklace and post earrings, Rihanna let one eye-catching accessory take center stage: her lit-up marijuana blunt.
In another series of shots, Rihanna strips down to skin-baring pale-hued lingerie. With nothing but a few necklaces and jewels on her hands, the Grammy-winning singer flaunts her ever-enviable figure in a white body suit — one photo showing her sitting back on the ground, smoldering into Richardson's lens, while another puts her playful side on display, as she flashes her pushed-up cleavage and a sly grin.
Then slipping into a loose, low-cut negligee, Rihanna stuns in a handful of close-up shots, many turning the spotlight on the weed aficionado as she inhales and exhales smoke through her glossed-up pout.The outtakes are not a far cry — excluding the Mary Jane, of course — from the shots that landed in the latest issue of Rolling Stone. In the heart-baring cover story, Rihanna opens up about her sometimes scandalous public image, her controversy-laden seven-country, seven-show Unapologetic promo tour and reconciling with her once abusive ex-boyfriend, Chris Brown.
What do you think of Rihanna's latest racy photos? Tell us in the comments section.

Has anybody ever brewed this? Does it taste identicle to the original? I received mine in the mail yesterday and can't wait to get started. This kit came with 14oz of hops. I am wondering how much volume I will loose due to hop material. I normally pitch the hops in the kettle but maybe this time I will use a large hop sack. Any thoughts?
Good judgement comes from experience, experience comes from bad judgement.
Buying a software like beersmith will help calculate these small differences fwiw
I brewed a pliny the elder clone, but not the one you're specifically referring to. I used a recipe that was allegedly published by the brewers (it's listed in a thread here, but PM me if you want it and I'll dig it up). It was absolutely outstanding. I've not had the original but a friend who did said mine was very very close - only lacking slightly in 'maltiness'. I did miss the target gravity though. To answer your other question - yes, you will lose a heck of a lot from the hops. My pre-boil wort was something around 8--8.5 gallons, but by the time I racked I was left with thirty 500 ml bottles. I also recommend the use of pellet hops over leaf. I had a mix of the two and the leaf hops made racking extremely difficult (unless you have something to strain with in the process).
I also got this kit on Friday July 5. I am brewing it tonight and plan on using some muslin bags which I rarely use. What yeast are you using?
I skipped the yeast option and bought some safale-05. I typically use dry yeast in place of 001 or 1056. Full boil, all grain.
