Rolls-Royce and Synergy Group sign $630m Trent 700 agreement
Thursday, 12 July 2012
Rolls-Royce, the global power systems company, has won a $630 million contract with Brazil-based conglomerate Synergy Aerospace to provide Trent 700 engines and TotalCare® long-term engine service support for nine Airbus A330 aircraft.
Germán Efromovich, Chairman, Synergy Group, said: "We look forward to continuing our relationship with Rolls-Royce and have confidence in the benefits of both its Trent 700 technology and support services."
Peter Turner, Rolls-Royce, Civil Aerospace Vice President – Customer Business, said: "The Trent 700 has become the engine of choice for A330 operators, selected for around 75 per cent of future engine orders on the A330. The combination of Trent technology and comprehensive TotalCare® support will deliver significant benefits to Synergy Aerospace."
The Trent 700 is the only engine specifically designed for the Airbus A330 and is the most fuel efficient, cleanest and quietest engine for the aircraft. More than 1,400 Trent 700 engines are now in service or on firm order.
Of the nine aircraft ordered, six will be passenger and three freighter.
- Rolls-Royce is a world-leading provider of power systems and services for use on land, at sea and in the air, and has established a strong position in global markets - civil aerospace, defence aerospace, marine and energy.
- As a result of this strategy, Rolls-Royce has a broad customer base comprising more than 500 airlines, 4,000 corporate and utility aircraft and helicopter operators, 160 armed forces, more than 4,000 marine customers, including 70 navies, and energy customers in more than 80 countries.
- Annual underlying revenues were £11.3 billion in 2011, of which more than half came from the provision of services. The firm and announced order book stood at £62.2 billion at 31 December 2011, providing visibility of future levels of activity.
- Rolls-Royce employs over 40,000 people in offices, manufacturing and service facilities in over 50 countries. Over 11,000 of these employees are engineers.
- In 2011, Rolls-Royce invested £908 million on research and development, two thirds of which had the objective of further improving the environmental performance of its products, in particular reducing emissions.
- Rolls-Royce supports a global network of 28 University Technology Centres, which connect the company's engineers with the forefront of scientific research.
- The Group has a strong commitment to apprentice and graduate recruitment and to further developing employee skills.

"Why do some people think that human rights and civil rights are the same thing? Everyone has human rights, just by being human. Civil rights are the rights of a person who has legal citizenship to a specific country. If you are not a citizen, then you do not have the privileges of these civil rights. Civil rights activists should be backing the rights of citizens not the illegal immigrants, who have only human rights."
"As an attorney, and according to himself (President Barack Obama), a pretty good one, one of the keys to being a good attorney is precision in the use of language. His statement on June 15, 2009 was, and I quote 'we will keep this promise to the American people: If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. ... If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. ... No one will take it away, no matter what.' Sounds pretty clear to me. To say he meant otherwise makes him a liar."
"I fail to see how crushing poached ivory sends an anti-poaching message. It seems to me that this action virtually guarantees that more elephants will be killed. (The ones who died to yield the ivory that will be crushed can't be brought back.) Why not let those silly, selfish people who think they need ivory trinkets/status symbols have these existing ones, at a very high premium, and use the resulting funds to help stop poaching?"
"This last ditch effort and cancellation of health care plans by health insurance companies is just another ploy to purge high risk people from their files and push the burden and blame onto someone else."
"Progressive realization of legal 'extortion' — is private slush funds extracted for lawmakers in Congress. Politicians are profiting from their positions by shaking down entire industries, forcing them to pay up by threatening to pass laws that could hurt them — or not passing laws that could help them."

New Revised Standard (NRS) | New International Version (NIV) |
6 The thing itself shall be carried to Assyria as tribute to the great king. Ephraim shall be put to shame, and Israel shall be ashamed of his idol. | 6 It will be carried to Assyria as tribute for the great king. Ephraim will be disgraced; Israel will be ashamed of its wooden idols. |
7 Samaria's king shall perish like a chip on the face of the waters. | 7 Samaria and its king will float away like a twig on the surface of the waters. |
8 The high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed. Thorn and thistle shall grow up on their altars. They shall say to the mountains, Cover us, and to the hills, Fall on us. | 8 The high places of wickedness will be destroyed-- it is the sin of Israel. Thorns and thistles will grow up and cover their altars. Then they will say to the mountains, "Cover us!" and to the hills, "Fall on us!" |
9 Since the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel; there they have continued. Shall not war overtake them in Gibeah? | 9 "Since the days of Gibeah, you have sinned, O Israel, and there you have remained. Did not war overtake the evildoers in Gibeah? |
10 I will come against the wayward people to punish them; and nations shall be gathered against them when they are punished for their double iniquity. | 10 When I please, I will punish them; nations will be gathered against them to put them in bonds for their double sin. |
11 Ephraim was a trained heifer that loved to thresh, and I spared her fair neck; but I will make Ephraim break the ground; Judah must plow; Jacob must harrow for himself. | 11 Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her fair neck. I will drive Ephraim, Judah must plow, and Jacob must break up the ground. |
12 Sow for yourselves righteousness; reap steadfast love; break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek the Lord, that he may come and rain righteousness upon you. | 12 Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, until he comes and showers righteousness on you. |
13 You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice, you have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your power and in the multitude of your warriors, | 13 But you have planted wickedness, you have reaped evil, you have eaten the fruit of deception. Because you have depended on your own strength and on your many warriors, |
14 therefore the tumult of war shall rise against your people, and all your fortresses shall be destroyed, as Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel on the day of battle when mothers were dashed in pieces with their children. | 14 the roar of battle will rise against your people, so that all your fortresses will be devastated-- as Shalman devastated Beth Arbel on the day of battle, when mothers were dashed to the ground with their children. |
15 Thus it shall be done to you, O Bethel, because of your great wickedness. At dawn the king of Israel shall be utterly cut off. | 15 Thus will it happen to you, O Bethel, because your wickedness is great. When that day dawns, the king of Israel will be completely destroyed. |

Lee Sanfacon: The birth of 'Bigger Little League' came in 1953
Thursday, August 14, 2014
SEEING the need for another baseball program for youngsters to continue playing beyond the age of Little League, which had been established in Rochester in 1952, Community Activities Director Fred Merrill advocated an older program, at the time to be known as the "Bigger Little League" later the Babe Ruth League. Merrill met with interested local representatives with similar interest in March of 1953. He also invited others in the surrounding communities which included Portsmouth's Recreation Director Steve Blinn and Gene Hodgdon, President of Portsmouth's Bigger Little League. Initial plans called for a six-team league consisting of two teams each from Rochester and Dover also teams from Farmington and Somersworth.
Team sponsorships responded enthusiastically with Le Club Victoire and George J. Maxfield Post (VFW) (Rochester); Farmington's 500 Boys Club, Inc.; Chabot's Dairy from Somersworth ,while Dover garnered assistance from their Little League organization and St. Mary's parish.
A TEAM of six Rochester youngsters traveled to Marshall, Mich., on Aug. 23, 1980 to compete in the Michigan Jaycees National Invitational Junior Athletic Championships finishing fifth in the competition against teams from North Dakota and Virginia. The six were chosen after they won the state Jaycee meet thus representing New Hampshire — the first Rochester (Jaycee) to go to the Nationals. The squad was coached by Bob Brown of the Rochester Runners Club and elementary school system physical ed. Director George Donatello. Traveling arrangements were coordinated by Bill Young.
ADDENDUM: Relative to the no-hitter by Spaulding's Jim Witherell against Keene in 1971 in our last column, he later went on to South Windham, Maine, In 1979 as an outside sales rep. for L.C. Andrew, a building supplier and manufacturer of custom design of log homes. After high school, he attended the University of Mass. at Amherst. (Where is he now?) |

Very Good 4.5/5
(2 ratings)
I found this recipe in the Kraft food & family Holiday 2009 magazine. The original recipe had 190 calories and 9 grams of fat. I entered this recipe into the recipe calculator to see if I could make it less "fatty" by substituting the cream cheese with fat free cream cheese and the vanilla pudding with sugar free, fat free vanilla pudding. I also substituted the original canned pumpkin for no salt added canned pumpkin. I'm only putting this recipe on here so I can remember the changes I made to the recipe! :D The original recipe can be found here http://www.kraftfoods.com/kf/recipes/pumpkin-cream-cupcakes-114682.aspx Submitted by CARRIEDUVALL Carbs: 4.8g | Fat: 1g | Fiber: 0.3g | Protein: 2.9g | Calories: 40.4
These moist pancakes are lightly spiced for the palate of my young child. If you like a bit more pizzazz, you can increase the spices or add others. Cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice both work nicely here. Submitted by AASLP___ Carbs: 16.1g | Fat: 0.5g | Fiber: 1.9g | Protein: 3.3g | Calories: 74.1

Spicy but nicey! Submitted by TREEHUGGER73 Carbs: 16.9g | Fat: 4.1g | Fiber: 6g | Protein: 9.5g | Calories: 135.7
This soup is so simple, with the main ingredient being only carrots, and no potatoes or cream to thicken it. I'm sure there are many directions in which the flavors could travel, but I prefer to make it with a predominantly Indian taste. Feel free to adjust the spicy-level as necessary. I like it with a moderate to intense heat, but you can add more or less cayenne and crushed red pepper to suit your own taste. The final product should be smooth and evenly blended, so you will need some kind of food processing device to get it right. Submitted by EHD630 Carbs: 19.1g | Fat: 3.1g | Fiber: 4.1g | Protein: 4.5g | Calories: 120.1
I call this soup pseudo-sophisticated because of how gourmet it tastes, even though it is one of the easiest things to make! I got this recipe off of www.vegweb.com and I absolutely love it. I have made some modifications but its basically the same. This soup has AMAZING fiber and protein values.

By nature of being vegan, this recipe is cholesterol free, though I suppose you could change that and use regular butter and milk instead if that's what you have on hand. Submitted by TAILSFOX Carbs: 29.4g | Fat: 11.7g | Fiber: 3.7g | Protein: 4.2g | Calories: 231.2

On The Record
Why are you running for County Board?
I am running because I believe our county's residents need someone to stand up for them and their beliefs. I feel that our government continues to try and micromanage people. Government has overextended itself into our lives with more and more laws and bureaucracy. This not only restricts us but takes away our freedoms that this nations was built upon. I also believe that since McHenry County is in the top 25 in the nation for taxation this does not translate into effective nor efficient government. I feel that with my background I bring a unparallelled diversity that no other County Board Member has. Being a United States Marine Vet, Construction Worker, and Business Owner in the Health Care Industry I understand many different problems that will arise within our county. However with forward planning I can help eliminate those problems before they become larger issues. This will in the long run help keep our taxes lowered.
What is your top priority if you are elected?
The three issues that most families worry about are jobs, the economy and taxes. I wonder how our local economy will grow when our taxes are listed among the top 25 in the nation? That reality paired with the fact that Illinois is crippled with debt and overspending problems, creates a recipe for overtaxing to continue. People, and more importantly businesses, are leaving our county and state because of these problems. We have to come up with simple fixes to very complex problems created by past politicians. Government has overextended itself into our lives with more and more laws and bureaucracy. We must start fixing these problems at our local and county levels first. I believe that I can bring these common sense and reasonable solutions to the people of McHenry County.
What is your position on shrinking the County Board's size?
I feel that the size of the County Board is good at this time. There are 12 standing committees for the board to run. 2 other commissions and 24 Liaison positions. I think that the 6 districts with 4 members each can give good representation of the people. The 4 members are divided up on the committees in each district to have equal representation among them. Typically on 3 committees. I know one of the proposals was individual districts. I feel that individual districts that one person cannot represent themselves on all 12 committees. So having a representation to there district would be impossible. I feel that this would not represent the voters and there taxpayer dollars.
Do you favor reducing the levy of Valley Hi Nursing Home and spending down its cash reserve? Why or why not?
With over a $35 Million cash reserve for Valley Hi I feel that we need to find every way to spend down those reserves. In short Valley Hi should have never been able to accumulate a $35 Million cash reserve. This is were transparency needed to be addressed to the public. However, one aspect that Valley Hi does not know at this time is the effects of the Affordable Healthcare Act will have on its facility. With the unknown happening soon within the mandate costs and services billed are going to be different then they are right now.
Do you believe county government should continue to keep its tax levy frozen? Why or why not? And if not, what expenses would you cut to ease the burden on taxpayers?
I do believe that we should keep the tax levy frozen at this time. People are caught in a catch 22 right now. People trying to get value out of their home after the recession but if their home values go up their taxes go up. Even a 10% increase could cost homeowners another $500-$1000 and even more per year. The County's budget from taxpayer dollars has gone up significantly over the past 6 yrs even with keeping the levy frozen. And projections are the same. McHenry County needs to find ways to cut back on expenses. When the County is in the top 25 in taxes in the nation everything that is done within our county needs to be taken a serious look at from top to bottom. No department should be excluded from trying to find more reasonable ways to cut high taxes.
What does county government do that it should not be in the business of doing?
The County needs to be diligent with the taxpayers dollars. The Board needs to start going through the Departments and finding those services that should only be constructed within the County and not overlapping within the State, Federal, and Municipalities. By cutting back services that are offered or run through other areas of Government only makes for better efficient Government. It does not matter if money comes from Grants or other services of Government it is still the taxpayer dollars. If the County is overlapping services 2 or 3 times this is where effectiveness does not serve our taxpayers.
What can the County Board do to make the county more attractive to employers?
70% of all businesses are small businesses. Having a small business I understand the concerns of these businesses. The County Board needs to work with the municipalities closely and our elected officials in our state and federal levels to help create and build toward the future of our county. Also the ability for our county to continue economic progress to sustain our workforce (and their families) requires us to look at the current infrastructure and transportation plan.Businesses will not relocate to our county simply because our roads would not support them. Fiscal accountability, private and public partnerships, and community engagement are imperative to successfully altering this dilemma. It is the County Board�s responsibility to address this issue in a proactive rather than reactive manner.

Wenger still wary of Reds
04 Jan 2008 - 14:06:37
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger claims he has not yet written off Liverpool's Premier League title challenge.
The Reds slipped 12 points off the pace set by the table-topping Gunners after being held to a 1-1 at home to Wigan Athletic on Wednesday.
Rafael Benitez's side have won just two of their last six games, but Wenger believes the race for the Premier League title remains a four-horse one between his side, Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool.
"I wouldn't say it is completely (a three-way race)," he said.
"I still feel Liverpool are in the race but they cannot have any blips anymore.
"They are still a dangerous team. The disadvantage for them is that there are three teams in front of them who might not drop many points.
"I still don't dismiss them at this stage. It happened to us in 1997-98 and we made the ground up."

This exhibition celebrated the tricentenary of the death of Henry Aldrich, Dean of Christ Church, architect, collector of music and prints, author of books on logic and architecture and considered 'one of the most eminent men in England'.
Aldrich's considerable influence on the academic, political and social life of Oxford (and England) was explored further during a study day on Friday 21st January 2011 at Christ Church, Blue Boar Lecture Theatre.
Click here to read more on Likenesses.
An exhibition which showcased some of Christ Church Picture Gallery's least known, but most captivating treasures.
Works from Christ Church's Fine Art undergraduates Cara George, Claire-Louise Shifrin and James Sutton, from the Ruskin School of Art were on display.
A limited edition Napkin in Tube - designed by James Sutton after a drawing by Verocchio from the Gallery collection, was also on sale at £6.50.
The 34 drawings in the exhibition came from the collection of General John Guise (1682-1765), the Picture Gallery's main benefactor. Guise combined his profession as a soldier with his passion for Old Master drawings. It is therefore tempting to assume that he might have had a special interest in military scenes. Unfortunately, this assumption is difficult to verify, but this exhibition showed some outstanding drawings which he might have studied in more detail and left it to the viewer to decide if our collectors' fascination with war can be detected in his collection of drawings.
The depiction of the Madonna and Child is the most popular devotional image. Five rarely seen works from the Christ Church collection allowed visitors to re-acquaint themselves with this familiar theme and to re-visit the Madonna and Child paintings of our primary collection, by artists such as Piero della Francesca, Annibale Carracci and many more.
Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475 - 1564) is regarded as the most influential artists of all times. His fresco of the Last Judgement in the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican is the most replicated work of art. Artists from Raphael to Tintoretto copied his works in order to further their own artistic ideas. This exhibition brought together thirty-three drawings from the Christ Church collection of Old Masters to trace and understand Michelangelo's genius through his followers, imitators and admirers.
How drapery and clothes enrobe the human figure and how to depict the varied qualities of material was and remains one of the challenges in art. With more than thirty old master drawings this exhibition explored a seemingly mundane topic and illustrated its richness and creative power. Works on display included Leonardo da Vinci's Study of a Sleeve and drapery studies by Figino, one of Leonardo's followers. Despite their practical qualities all the drawings - in their rendering of the folds, play with light and shade and lines that follow or defeat the imagined body underneath - can equally be regarded as abstract poetic forms.
Christ Church's collection contains a large number of drawings from the mid-sixteenth century. The importance of that period in art was only fully recognised in the twentieth century and with this recognition the treasures of Christ Church became focal points in the study of the era. Jacopo Pontormo's preparatory drawing for his Lamentation in the church of Santa Felicita in Florence is probably the most famous example of this kind. More than thirty drawings were on display in this exhibition by artists such as Vasari, Salviati, Allori, Pontormo and many more.
Karen Forsyth, an Oxford based artist exhibited her recent works – figure drawings in pencil, charcoal and chalk, some on prepared paper. Her drawings impress through a lightness which she achieves by an almost meditative movement of the line.

In any office these days, no tool is likely to be more important than a computer — well, maybe the coffeemaker.
So when your PC breaks and must go out for repair, most people understand when you need to borrow time on someone else's system.
But don't bring all your software to the machine you borrow without asking first! You might find that you thoroughly alienate a colleague. Forum member midnight's co-worker did exactly that.

Re:Body Language (315 comments)
Your definition of "troll" is astoundingly wrong.
People who suffer from Aspergers or Autism (like many Slashdot users) are unable to read those cues in real life, much less on the internet. They are victims of a disease, but your definition lumps them in with people who try to raise the hackles of others on purpose.
If someone does not understand the nuance of your post, it does not mean they are a troll. The inability to read such nuance over the internet is very much akin to Aspergers and Autism. The person on the other end is working at a disadvantage.

The Osborne 1 was an amazing machine, but the Osborne 2 was going to be even more amazing. Since it never got a chance to be released, comparing a second generation iPad to the Oz1 seems a bit unfair.

Re:Slow! (554 comments)
That's a feature.
No one is coming out with a browser that takes its time. Until now. FF4 takes the concept of performance and turns it on its head.
Aren't you tired of websites that instantly display? Don't you like reading your favorite site leisurely? What if you could have that plus random crashes and uncontrollable memory leaks?
What would you pay for something like that? Would you pay $100 for software of that quality? What if I told you that you could have all this and more for the low, low price of $59.95?
That's right! A slow browser, massive memory leaks, and random crashes in your computer today for only $59.95!
If you act now, I'll throw in a set of plug-ins that will turn your modern day CPU into the legacy system of yesteryear!
Firefox 4! Bring computing back to the speed of life.
Call now. Operators are standing by.
You're missing the point (789 comments)
Tablets (the separate species from TabletPCs) are meant to be take-anywhere devices. That iPod or Android phone in your pocket? That's a tablet.
It isn't meant to be the device that you rely on to do your heavy work. It is a portal device, to get you to important data immediately, wherever you are.
Spock doesn't use a tricorder tablet because it has a million features and CPU to spare. He uses it because it is handy and can connect to the Millenium Falcon when it needs to perform more CPU-intensive calculations.
If you think your laptop is better, then that's great for you. But the fact of the matter is that you have simply been left behind technologically. You are a relic.
I ripped all my music from CDs (133 comments)
I just got an iPhone 4. I really don't know why I waited so long. I suppose I was just happy with my previous phone.
But one of the key reasons I bought the iPhone was because of its MP3 capabilities. I have a lot of CDs and wanted to listen to them on the road, so I decided to burn all the CDs to the iTunes.
Anyway, what I'm getting at is that buying the CD gives me something that iTunes music downloaders don't get. That is unlimited access to my music without DRM and without having to pay some online service for it.
I really like the Genius automatic playlist generator. I use it to all the time. If you're buying an iPhone, I recommend you also buy CDs so that you don't have the DRM problem mentioned in the article.

Can Apple survive without Jobs again? (166 comments)
Steve Jobs breathed life back into a dying Apple. It was his management that turned the company from a third-rate HW vendor into a juggernaut of ideas, concepts, products, and customer satisfaction. Sculley, Amelio, and the rest never could have done that.
But if Steve goes, whence Apple? I'm sure he has a large cadre of lieutenants who can make good decisions in his stead, but can they get along? Can they drive the teams and call BS on half-assed engineering like Jobs? Do they have his business acumen?
The problem of building a company around a single person means that person is the weakest link. When Steve decides to give up the mantle, will Apple be able to adjust to the absence and still succeed in the same ways?
I doubt it, and that's why I've shorted Apple stock. Frankly, I suggest you all do likewise.

1 Hear my words, O Yahweh. Give heed to my sighing. | 1 Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my sighing. |
2 Listen to the sound of my pleading, my king and my God, for to you I pray. | 2 Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God, for to you I pray. |
3 O Yahweh, in [the] morning you will hear my voice. In [the] morning I will set forth [my case] to you and I will watch. | 3 In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. |
4 For you [are] not a God [who] desires wickedness. Evil cannot dwell with you. | 4 You are not a God who takes pleasure in evil; with you the wicked cannot dwell. |
5 The boastful do not stand before your eyes. You hate all evildoers. | 5 The arrogant cannot stand in your presence; you hate all who do wrong. |
6 You destroy speakers of lies. {A man of bloodshed} and deceit Yahweh abhors. | 6 You destroy those who tell lies; bloodthirsty and deceitful men the LORD abhors. |
7 {But as for me}, through the abundance of your steadfast love I will enter your house. I will bow down toward {your holy temple} in awe [of] you. | 7 But I, by your great mercy, will come into your house; in reverence will I bow down toward your holy temple. |
8 O Yahweh, lead me in your righteousness because of my enemies; make straight before me your way. | 8 Lead me, O LORD, in your righteousness because of my enemies-- make straight your way before me. |
9 For there is not [anything] reliable in his mouth; their inner part [is] destruction. Their throat is an open grave; [with] their tongue they speak deceit. | 9 Not a word from their mouth can be trusted; their heart is filled with destruction. Their throat is an open grave; with their tongue they speak deceit. |
10 Treat them as guilty, O God; let them fall because of their plans. Because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out, for they have rebelled against you. | 10 Declare them guilty, O God! Let their intrigues be their downfall. Banish them for their many sins, for they have rebelled against you. |
11 But let all who take shelter in you rejoice. Let them ever sing for joy, {because} you spread protection over them; And let those [who] love your name exult in you. | 11 But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you. |
12 For you bless [the] righteous. O Yahweh, like a shield you surround him [with] good favor. | 12 For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield. |

Nerdgasm: Myst Book Working Replica
Nerdgasm: Myst Book Working Replica!
Ok, so I am a HUGE fan of the Myst franchise. Myst garnered me intense amounts of gamer cred in school when I was told by everyone that I "needed" the walkthrough guide to beat it. I then drank a crap-ton of Jolt, and lived on Pixie Sticks, and within one weekend had completed the game sans any type of help. Take that, jerky kids!
Then, Riven was the first game I owned on DVD and the graphics blew me away. Funny to look back on that now as the end all be all in PC gaming graphics. Ah, nostalgia… So when Meg Turney tweeted me that she found something I NEED on Reddit and it was this? My head exploded. If only I had $15k to buy it… Maybe one day I'll make one of my very own, cause that'd be so much cheaper! (insert sarcasm here)
Check it out:
This replica linking book is not only accurate looking (exact edition, 135 years old, restored, with 24ct gold emossing!), it literally plays all of Cyan's titles: Myst Masterpiece Edition, realMyst, Riven DVD edition, Riven Elementary, Myst III: Exile DVD edition, Myst IV: Revelation, Cyan's canceled MMO attemptUru: Ages Beyond Myst and Uru: The Path of the Shell, Myst V: End of Ages, The Manhole: Masterpiece Edition, and Crowthistle.
And, brace yourselves, when you turn it on, a video plays of Atrus writing at his desk and mouthing "who the devil are you?" AAAHHHHH!
Inside the book is a small desktop PC running Windows XP on a 1.6 GHz Intel processor and it sports 1GB of RAM and a 32GB flash card. The display is a 640×480 touchscreen with 2048×2048 resolution and it's able to run the games smoothly at 30fps. Battery life is up to 2 hours. Pretty intense machine.
The creator is reddit user riumplus. He said he worked on it a little everyday for about 6 years! He's offering it for sale for $15,625 and it even comes with other blue and white blank page props for total accuracy.
Riumplus, you are officially a BAMF.
I never finished any of them, but they were great.
Why is the price such a specific number ($15,625)? Is there a reason why it's 5 to the 6th power (5^6 = 15625)?
He worked on it for 6 years and 5 is his lucky number?
I remember playing these games when I was younger. They were so glorious and majestic. If someone did a redone HD version of them they would make MILLIONS I TELL YOU MMMMIIIILLLLLLIIIOOONNNSSSS!
The screen is so small.
Could you please make a Sourcefed video showing us what a nerdgasm looks like?
I remember playing Myst on a windows 98+, I blamed it for single single handedly destroying that computer.
I loved that game. Is there another other that won't kill the computer
they sell the the first 3 myst games for $5 at walmart, computers no wont have a problem with them.

LAKE FOREST —Danny Carollo wasn't told he'd be leading the Lake Forest football team's offense in Friday's season opener until Monday.
The spirited quarterback competition between Carollo, a junior, and senior William Bro was the talk of Lake Forest's camp. The 6-foot-2 Carollo rewarded the faith of the Scouts coaches Friday, benefitting from an opportunistic defense and a balanced running attack to lead Lake Forest to a 35-8 win over Dunbar at Varsity Field.
The first pass of Carollo's varsity career was a touchdown. On the opening possession of the game, Lake Forest's defense recovered a Dunbar fumble at the Mightymen 29-yard line. Five plays later, Carollo sailed a high pass that senior Matthew Hargitt snatched out of the air for a 2-yard touchdown catch. That gave Lake Forest a 7-0 lead with 9:10 remaining in the first quarter.
"I was pretty nervous before. It was a good first series," Carollo said. "We had good blocking and we scored pretty easily."
The pregame atmosphere was one of cautious optimism for Lake Forest. Carollo (7-of-9, 62 yards, 1 TD) was one of 16 new starters for the Scouts on Friday night. But after Carollo's touchdown pass, the almost-capacity crowd at Varsity Field saw the Scouts' confidence grow with every possession.
Lake Forest's second offensive series started at midfield. A 21-yard pass from Carollo to senior running back Wes Janeck gave the Scouts first-and-goal at Dunbar's 9-yard line. Janeck finished the five-play drive with a 1-yard touchdown plunge to give the Scouts a 14-0 lead with 5:35 left in the first quarter. Janeck, playing after missing all of last year due to medical reasons, finished with 33 yards and two touchdowns on eight carries.
"They were pretty good inside, so we went outside," Janeck said. "We have [junior] Quinn [Julian] and a great offensive line. I think the offense can be a perfect balance."
While the Scouts' offense was sturdy and played with poise, their defense was simply stifling. Senior Jack Traynor was a one-man wrecking ball at linebacker. Lake Forest allowed just 91 first-half yards and forced four Dunbar turnovers. Senior Kyle Gattari converted one into a touchdown, intercepting a Demoria Harris pass and returning it 15 yards with 8:28 left in the first half. That made the score 28-0.
Lake Forest sat most starters in the second half, including Carollo (Bro took all the snaps at quarterback). Although there are still many questions about this Scouts team — the revamped secondary looked shaky — at least one was answered Friday night.
For now, this is Carollo's team.
"I can't think of a reason why not," Scouts coach Chuck Spagnoli said.

I stay here pretty often on business and I have to say this is hands down the best hotel in Fort Worth! Staff is so welcoming, the food and drinks are outstanding, and my rooms are always so clean and comfortable. If you're looking for a great hotel but are on a budget this is the hotel for you!
Great Stay in Fort Worth

If I was passing through Fort Worth for the night again I would stay at this hotel even if I didnt have my dog. The front desk staff was very friendly and the rooms were clean and decently modern.
Great Place

It's beautiful passie. How do you germinated from seeds ? How long the seed will sprout ? I planted some bouquet passion from seed about 5weeks ago but nothing happen yet.Please, share your experience . Thanks |
First trial I took a few fresh seeds covered with the gely sack right from the seed pod and put them in soil with perlite,kept the soil moist and 2 of them germinated. In a few cases I could see that the gely sack molded and I had to remove it. Second trial I dried the seeds from the gely sack they were in and planted them in peat moss. I did not wright gown the day when I started but I think is like 2 weeks and I can see one is popping out. I hope someone will chine in and answer my question. Thanks. |

That doesn't look like my P. kewensis. That looks more like a P. mollissima or something similar to it. Here's my P. kewensis. I bought this from a reliable seller so I believe it is correctly ID'd. |

Thanks so much . Do you used heating pad to germinate ? Where do you purchased these passie seed ? My mollissima died in summer because transferred to the pot. PLMK, |
Fluffybonbon i did not use a heating pad. I did not buy them they were given to me. If you want I can give you few. Karyn if you want some I will be happy to send them to you. Let me know. I wish somebody else will chime in and help ID it. |
- Posted by karyn1 MD 7 (email@example.com) on Wed, Oct 21, 09 at 21:35
I'm not sure what the difference is between mollissima and tarminiana. Both are tasconias. The fruit looks very much like a mollissima fruit but other tasconia fruit might look similar. BTW it's supposed to be quite tasty. Tasconias are not heat lovers and do best in costal areas like S.F. Bay. I have a few tasconias but had to convert a greenhouse into a cooling house during the summer to grow them. P. mollissima might be one of the more heat tolerant tasconias. Hopefully Randy will chime in. He's quite knowledgeable about passies, tasconias in particular. I use bottom heat for germinating all but incarnata seeds if I'm not starting them during the summer. I store them in the arils for a while and will even allow them to dry still in the arils. If I'm planting seeds that have been dried and stored I soak them in a mild acidic liquid like orange juice for a couple days before planting. Some sprout quick, within 2 weeks but I've had some that have taken the better part of a year to germinate. I don't know if that's due to the age of the seeds, the variety or maybe a combination of the two. I also make sure the soil that the seeds are in isn't too moist, just slightly damp. There's no need to nick the seed coat. This is just what works for me. Hopefully others will respond with what works for them. Here's a good site for passiflora info. |

Thank you Myles. I haven't seen you post here in a while. |
figara, I think you'll find this on Myles' site, but it's worth repeating. There is no plant "officially" called P. mollissima. I believe there was in the past. Two different species are called P. mollissima: P. tarminiana is the one you have. Most plants sold online that are called P. mollissima are actually this species. This plant is invasive in certain climates including some regions of Hawaii. I believe it's considered invasive to some degree in California, but only along the coast. P. tripartita var. mollissima is the other species and is sometimes referred to as the "true" mollissima. The most obvious difference between the two is that the flowers of tarminiana open flat or slightly reflexed (bent back beyond flat), while those of tripartita var. mollissima are campanulate (= bell-shaped), so that the petals don't "open" fully . To add to the confusion, many of the photos that are online and are labeled P. tripartita var. mollissima are in fact P. tarminiana. If the photo shows a picture of a flower opened flat it is not P. tripartita var. mollissima. It's impossible to tell if seeds sold on Ebay or P. tarminiana or P. tripartita var. mollissima. This confusion is often through no fault of the seller. They may receive seeds of "P. mollissima", look up a photo (P. tripartita var. mollissima) and sell the seeds with the photo. Or they may even assume that P. tripartita var. mollissima is the updated name for the species and sell the P. tarminiana seeds as such. Let's say someone really wants to buy P. tripartita var. mollissima because they prefer the flowers or because they've heard the fruit tastes better. Seeds from Ebay are probably a bad idea. If the person selling the seeds insists upfront that they know the difference and is selling the right thing your chances go up. If it's from a reputable seller who really knows Passiflora your chances are also higher. This forum would be a good source of opinions on which sellers are less likely to mis-ID a plant. A botanical garden would be more likely to sell a correctly labeled plant (although, offhand I've never seen either P. tarminiana or P. tripartita for sale at a botanical garden). A very good nursery might be OK, although you'd probably want to see the plant in bloom. |
Here is a link that might be useful: P. tripartita var. mollissima from CalPhotos
Thank you Myles. Mark, thanks so much for the information. I appreciated. I took the picture of the flower and the seeds:). I did not have the camera with me when I saw the passion vines but I picked a flower and I took the pictures later on when I got home. Pat |
Hi Pat, What part of California are you from--was the plant growing far from you? I'm partly curious where in California these can be grown successfully. The other reason I ask is that if you are much farther inland from where you got the seed it may be trickier to grow the plant. Zone 9 in Southern California is usually in inland places that get hot; in Northern California zone 9 gets much closer to the coast. |
Hi Mark, I live in SF Bay area (Peninsula). I guess you live around SF too.... I saw your posting with the nurseries and I know some of them. It is funny that I went to some nurseries at Half Moon Bay but I never went or knew about Strybing Arboretum. I found out about it from Karyn :)) Evan thou I am relatively close to SF I do not go there much. Maybe now I'll go to one of Strybing sales. |
Hi Pat, I'm in the South Bay. I would imagine that P. tarminiana would do fine on the Peninsula--your climate is a little milder than ours. I grow P. x exoniensis, which is half "mollissima"--I don't think anyone knows which one. It's doing extremely well, although it hasn't been through a winter. I also grow P. tripartita var. mollissima, which hasn't bloomed yet, but did form nice buds until the worst heat wave coincided with the pruning of the neighbor's tree (= much more sun). I think tarminiana may tolerate higher temps than tripartita var. mollissima, although I've never grown it. The Strybing sales have many things besides Passiflora and are definitely worth going to. What's amazing is that so few people go. They still had P. parritae 40 minutes after the sale began. |
Mark ,if you want to try to grow P.Tarminiana I can give you a few seeds. Let me know. |

exciting and fast moving
Robert Buettner's UNDERCURRENTS is a fast-moving sci-fi spy (say that fast three times) adventure set in the way distant future.
Lt Jazen Parker is called back to his past life as a behind-the-lines operative for the Earth military. He is sent to a planet where technology is only slightly better than the 1920's on earth, in order to find his old partner slash love interest Colonel Kit Born. And it's a good thing for Colonel Born, because she has been captured by the ruling population on the planet and they have every intent of torturing her until she does.
Parker is inserted along with a new partner (Earth operatives always work in pairs) but the newbie gets killed on the way in, and Parker is badly injured on the landing. He soldiers on, makes some unlikely allies, meets a princess, and almost gets killed (seemingly on every third page). The story marches towards an exciting but unexpected climax.
Some of the chapters are maddeningly short (two paragraphs) but overall the story moves quickly, has plenty of action, and is fairly easy to follow. The style switches between third person and first person, which is confusing at first until you figure out the pattern. There's a bit of gore and profanity, but nothing more than PG-13, so don't worry if your teenager wants to read it.
Fans of Heinlein or Asimov may find this lacking or a bit shallow, but if you like military science fiction this won't be a waste of your time.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

Rauner vs Quinn for Illinois Governor
Venture capitalist Bruce Rauner has been declared winner of the Republican primary for Illinois governor.
Rauner edged State Senator Kirk Dillard (R-Hinsdale), who has conceded the race to Rauner. Dillard's running mate was State Representative Jil Tracy (R-Quincy) who gave up her legislative seat to run for lieutenant governor.
State Senator Bill Brady (R-Bloomington) and Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford also ran in the primary for governor.
Incumbent Democratic Governor Pat Quinn easily won his primary against Tio Hardiman.
Rauner is expected to portray Quinn and Democrats as being controlled by unions, while Quinn is already portraying Rauner as a candidate who supports policies that hurt the middle class.
Also in contested statewide primaries, dairy magnate Jim Oberweis won the Republican primary for the U.S. Senate seat now held by Democrat Dick Durbin, and Tom Cross topped Bob Grogan in the Republican primary for state treasurer. Cross will face Democrat Mike Frerichs in the November election.
In the lone contested congressional primary in west central Illinois, Darrel Miller received 54% of the vote to defeat Rob Mellon for the Democratic nomination in the 18th District. Miller will challenge incumbent Republican Aaron Schock in the November election.

The race for Land Commissioner is important for two reasons. One is, that most of you probably don't know what the Land Commissioner does.
And the other is…these guys don't hate each other.
In these hyper-partisan days, how in the world can an Anglo Republican from Houston and an Hispanic Democrat from the Valley, actually get along? Much less, run against each other?
Well, Commissioner Jerry Patterson and former State Senator Hector Uribe do because they were in the legislature together, and there is a mutual respect, though, not much agreement.
"Hector's a decent guy," Patterson told us. "He's a former State Senator. He's the same age as I am. We were both in the Alamo movie. In fact, when he filed against me, my press release was titled, 'I Should have Shot Him When I had the Chance.' Because in the movie, I was in the Texas army and he was in the Mexican army."
The Land Office is the oldest department in the state, being founded when Texas was in 1836.
The land commissioner manages the 13 million acres of public land in the state, and the minerals and proceeds from it. That money goes primarily to the permanent school fund, established in 1876.
"Our revenues ultimately go to the PSF," Patterson says, "and the interest on that goes to public education on a per capita basis."
"They didn't waste resources then. And we shouldn't be wasting them now," Uribe cautions.
He also manages the Veterans Land Board, to make land available to those who have served. Alternative energy, particularly wind, is a special concern of both candidates.
"They are just beginning to talk about our unlimited clean, renewable energy resources, wind and solar," Uribe said.
"Texas is the number one state in the United States for installed wind power. It's about 10,000 megawatts," Patterson countered.
Both men have resolved to stay on the high road in the campaign.
Patterson says, "I think it's positive and folks are…it's refreshing for Texans"

Rubber advanced for a second day on speculation that central banks may ease monetary policy after manufacturing unexpectedly shrank in the U.S.
The December-delivery contract gained as much as 2.8 percent to 253 yen a kilogram ($3,175 a metric ton), the highest level since June 20, before trading at 251.5 yen on the Tokyo Commodity Exchange at 2:40 p.m. That pared this year's loss to 4.5 percent.
Asian stocks climbed on expectations that central banks from Washington to Frankfurt and Beijing may ease monetary policy to shore up growth. Concern about the U.S. economy grew after the Institute for Supply Management's manufacturing index for June showed a contraction for the first time in almost three years, even as gauges from Europe to China topped forecasts.
"Futures were bought back as a rally in equities markets boosted the risk appetite of investors," said Takaki Shigemoto, an analyst at research company JSC Corp. in Tokyo. The U.S. data raised speculation for additional policy easing, he said today.
The European Central Bank and the Bank of England will announce interest-rate decisions on July 5. ECB officials will cut the benchmark rate 25 basis points to a record low 0.75 percent, according to the median forecast in a Bloomberg survey of 57 economists. A cut in the reserve requirement ratio for major banks is due, the China Securities Journal said.
Rubber for September delivery surged 2.6 percent to 23,885 yuan ($3,759) a ton on the Shanghai Futures Exchange at midday break. Thai rubber on a free-on-board basis was unchanged at 103.55 baht ($3.28) a kilogram today, according to the Rubber Research Institute of Thailand.
Thailand's Rubber Estate Organization raised the price at which it buys ribbed-smoked sheets from farmers to 94.95 baht a kilogram. That's higher than the average auctioned price in three southern markets of 91.95 baht, it said.

On August 13, the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals issued its decision in State of Texas v. EPA, No. 10-60614 (5th Cir. Aug. 13, 2012), affirming Texas's State Implementation Plan (SIP) allowing for "flexible permits." Under Texas's Flexible Permit Program, a facility may make modifications without agency review so long as aggregate emissions do not exceed an emissions cap for the facility. The case could have broader implications across the country, if other courts adopt the Fifth Circuit's reasoning to allow increased flexibility in state air permitting programs. In this case, the Court determined that if a SIP meets the statutory criteria of the Clean Air Act, then the EPA must approve the SIP. Rejection based on non-statutory preferences is not allowed.
