Featured Case Study
The main aim of this project was to create online ten-finger typing courses. This is a great example of organizing distant learning process with the help of interactive online courses. JoomlaLMS was taken as the basis of this new eLearning development. Special school functionality with competition features and online games ensure not only great promotion in schools but also a true dedication of site users and success of the project.
The "Book Club" company provides a popular service – books selling through an effective European catalogue system with the Internet usage. Such an automated order management system allows offering merchandise to the customers maximally convenient, display them according to a category and make an access to merchandise easy due to set-up search parameters.
Web System of Ice Hockey Statistics Recording was developed for the Belarus President's Sports Club in order to organize ice hockey games information processing. The President's Sports Club sponsors many national and international ice hockey competitions and championships: Hockey Amateur Teams Competitions for the Prizes of the Presindent's Sports Club, International Ice Hockey Junior Tournament for the Cup of the Presindent's Sports Club, International Ice Hockey Tournament Polesie Cup and many other competitions.
Joomla! CMS was selected as the platform for the development since it has necessary level of security and high customization options. To implement necessary functional we initially used GroupJive social networking component to create the online community and FireBoard Forum, subscription tool to buy whole training course videos. And we also embedded player for the main content of the portal - 3D Flash-based movies which can be downloaded to a mobile device or a computer.
One of our respected clients challenged us with the request to design and build a web application to make municipal/housing services closer to the people and have one single place for collaboration. Previous portal was partitioned into several sites with different UIs, separate registrations and wasn't integrated with local payment systems. A new portal has substituted the old one and became the main place of communication between different municipal/housing services and people living in the biggest capital in the CIS.
Planned list of player features included a possibility to play SCORM inside a mobile player without connection to the learning system. Secure storage of SCORM content and students' attempts information during system utilization was obligatory too.
The site was designed for a Belitsoft Joomla department that started as a team of e-Learning experts, who yet expanded their competency to website and Joomla!® components development, further designing of the elearning software for Windows and Open Source platforms and so on. For these reasons the site was meant to become the main area for keeping up users' interest in the business and maintaining the online shopping process of the authored components and programs.

"How the Aussies stopped the Japs"
The gritty fight by a vastly outnumbered Aussie militia to stop the Japs from crossing one of the worst jungles in the world to threaten Australia is one of the smaller battles of WWII. The day-by-day, person-by-person accounts from both sides keeps up interest in an obscure historical event. The Aussie fighters are occasionally portrayed a bit too heroically, bordering on wartime propaganda, but the scorn for distant and bungling military command rings true. Both sides lost more than half their men fighting for a tiny outpost on a footpath in the middle of New Guinea, a awesome example of men at war.
"Great Russian novel!"
After many weeks on the best-seller lists, I expected a merely artsy story, but I was delighted to find a novel worthy of Dostoyevsky, rich with full-blooded, flawed characters who semi-connect with each other and the semi-criminal world we live in. The narrator has an amazing range of voices with distinct personalities, not just accents but emotional persona. The author, a middle-age woman, does an extraordnary job of creating realistically reckless young men. Oddly, her female characters are thinner. The only flaw to my mind was the closing chapter, a redemption of the sort imposed by Victorian publishers.
"A sweet fem-fi story"
This is a sly futuristic tale without being dystopian. The style morphs from bare-bones homey, to comedy-of-manners, to thriller, somehow making the story of a teen daughter of professors and sabotage in the reference library interesting. Nice dry satire of academic and feminist lifestyle, as our girl finds her true self.
"Quite a variety of musical perception"
Sacks thoughtfully reveals how strange music appreciation is, by presenting many examples of unusual musical perception. In addition to dysfunctions related to accidents and illness, he describes the quirks of "earwigs", perfect pitch and color-sensed tones. Neurology still does not explain how acoustics are connected to emotions, or how simple rhythm is physically compelling. Nevertheless, it makes you think about what your brain is doing when you listen to music.
"The unheroic Hornblower at work"
Hornblower's command of a tiny ship engaged in the stressful and boring task of blockading Brest during the Napoleonic war is surprisingly engaging. Particularly when he is prone to seasickness and bouts of doubt about his personal and professional life. The story is a convincing tale of how a competent guy with a bit of cautious initiative and courage can do important work when the opportunity presents itself.
"Pretty depressing"
This book proves that it is difficult to write a good book about a halfwit orphan growing up in NAZI Germany. It has the flavor and starkness of depression-era and post-war German fiction. I gave up half-way through -- perhaps it got better.
"For dog-lovers"
The notion of bonding a PTSD cop with a PTSD dog in a thriller was attractive to me as a sometime dog-resuer. But, the plot is a bit contrived and the characters, including the dog, rather one-dimensional.
"Delightful yarn for engineers"
This story is a gem of plausible circumstances that carry a home-hobby mechanic of mini-mechanisms around the world to rescue the inheritance of his orphaned niece, aided by the kindness of strangers and a vivid set of circumstances and characters. The physically accurate descriptions of the fussy steps in manipulating a wide variety of devices ranging from sailboats to sawmills provide engineering authenticity as well as plot action. Read with the excellent expression and gravitas of Frank Muller, this gentle tale of humanity entangled with technology would make a great feel-good movie.
"An excellent reading of a magic shoot-em-up"
The plot is an extravagantly violent adolescent magical fantasy (not necessarily a bad thing), which is truly enriched by a reader who makes the characters sound bigger-than-life with a rich repertory of pitches, pronunciations and pacing. It's rare to hear one person voice as many distinct characters as a Disney animated movie.
"good fun"
A nice adventure into magical police and the gods of the Thames in modern London, with well developed out-of-control complications.

Hear It: Kanye's R-Rated Christmas Anthem
The man is more unstoppable than Denzel Washington and that runaway train. Weeks after dropping the best album of 2010 - not to mention releasing new tracks every Friday throughout the year - Kanye West is back spreading holiday cheer with a hot new jam. Hear it here.
"Christmas in Harlem," featuring rapper CyHi Da Prynce and Teyana Taylor singing the main hook, is by no means family-appropriate. Kanye spits hilarious lines about giving his loved one more than just presents from the mall, over a lilting piano line, swelling strings, and synthesizer: "Got a surprise for you that ain't on your Christmas list / Gave her the hot chocolate / She says it's deeeee-rishious."
And it looks like another version of the song will hit the web soon. Kanye Tweeted this afternoon about another version in the works, featuring Harlem-based rap crew Dipset. "Eeeeevrybody on it!!!!" he wrote. "Cam, Vado, Jimmy, Pusha, Big Sean, Cyhi, Teyana Taylor & Musiq."
What do you think of Kanye's Christmas track? Sound off in the comments.

Tuesday Open Thread: Mr. Darcy Is Consumed With Lust Edition
If that title doesn't bring the fangirls running from their RSS feeds, then we've completely lost our touch. ;-)
This week's open thread is less random than usual, and in fact is reflective of the meta fun we weirdo Internet types have with Jane Austen and her work. We don't think she would mind much.
Alert Janeite Kirsten sent us a link to the latest Kate Beaton comic. We're big Beaton fans at AustenBlog World Headquarters, and would love to read her take on a P&P comic–it's bound to be hilarious.
Alert Janeite Sion sent us a link (and Alert Janeite slw2004 posted in comments) a link to a blog with Uncomfortable Plot Summaries to many books and films, including Pride and Prejudice:
Woman with gold-digging mother nags wealthy man into marriage.
WHAT? Lizzy doesn't nag. ;-) (But that's why it's uncomfortable, we suppose.)
This is an open thread–let us know what's going on in your patch of Janeiteville.

Har! I thought those plot summaries were a hoot! So wrong, and yet so right!
April 21, 2009 10:39 am
LOL! Thanks for the laugh this morning–loved the plot summaries and the comic :).

Thanks for the laugh with the plot summaries!
I was surprised to find a Jane reference in the memoir I'm reading, Love is a Mix Tape by Rob Sheffield. The author describes his life after his wife passed away very suddenly, and how he has all this useless knowledge he learned from her.
She loved to sew, so he knows a lot of things about making clothing, and he describes sitting in a room of women watching the A&E P&P, where the women are talking about Jennifer Ehle's dresses. He starts going on about the empire waist and they all think he's crazy for being a guy who knows those things :)
Apparently I'm the go-to girl for my friends when it's time to play "identify the period movie." I helped a friend yesterday on the very vague mention of the girl's name being Amy identify Little Dorrit. (We were positive once I asked if it contained the 'new' Mr. Darcy and it was confirmed!)
Kirsten permalinkApril 21, 2009 6:10 pm
I am currently reading Carol Shields' "The Box Garden", and there's a great Austen reference. The main character is talking about her distant relationship with her sister, and says,
"had we been shaped by a tradition of kindness and had our sensibility been monitored by learning, we might even have resembled Jane Austen's loving, clinging, nuance-addicted chains of sisters with their epistles and their fainting spells and their nervous agitation and their endless, garrulous, wonderful concern for one another. As it was, we were stamped out of rougher materials: dullness and drudgery, ignorance and self-preservation."
Sylvia M. permalinkApril 22, 2009 2:16 pm
Emma4 pictures are at http://www.pemberley.com/bin/emma/emma.cgi?read=30665.
IMDB has Dan Fredenburgh down to play John Knightley.
Rosa C. permalinkApril 22, 2009 6:28 pm
During the scene in Little Dorrit when Arthur read Amy's letter, I suddenly wondered if the romance in Emma Watson would have been more believable had Emma and…whats-his-name, her gentleman had a similar correspondence instead of just the one letter declaring his feelings and she realizing she returned them.
I'm currently reading a biography on Maureen O'Sullivan and it touches briefly on her playing Jane in Pride and Prejudice. The author mentions that in this version Elizabeth was the oldest of the sisters. I've seen this film but don't recall there being any mention of Lizzie being the oldest instead of Jane. I wonder why they were switched them.
Trai permalinkApril 22, 2009 7:37 pm
To Rosa– perhaps because Lizzy is more forthright, they believe it makes the most sense for her to be oldest. In the 1949 Little Women, Amy is older than Beth instead of the other way around, because the filmmakers likely figured that Beth's shyness would make more sense in a younger child.
Debra permalinkApril 27, 2009 8:20 pm
Okay, clearly whoever thought Elizabeth was portrayed as the oldest sister was mistaken. I've seen the Greer Garson version many times, and they do refer to Jane as Miss Bennet, and Elizabeth as Miss Elizabeth, or Miss Eliza. I adore the 1949 version of Little Women, but yes, the filmmakers had a dilemma to deal with. Amy has to grow up. Beth dies (spoiler alert! :P). So they tried to make Elizabeth Taylor look as young as possible, then let her grow up. By the way, Margaret O'Brien absolutely slays me as Beth. I weep whenever I watch that film.

nya nganong senyor man?? diba baby man si sto. nino? so, should be junior or freshmen
Señor = Used as a courtesy title before the surname, full name, or professional title of a man
Senior = Abbr. Sr. Of or being the older of two, especially the older of two persons having the same name, as father and son.
there's a difference....

" Viva " means "Long live" - or more accurately "may he/she/it live".
" pit " from the original word "sangpit" which is cebuano for "to call upon" or to "plead with"
" senyor " in the greetings refer to Santo Niño
" Viva Pit Señior "

Cruise News Shorts: A Quantum Secret, Norwegian Pulls Drink Package and More Cruise News
(12:23 p.m. EST) --
Every week we catch wind of so much cruise news, we don't always know what to do with it all, but a few standout bits sometimes catch our attention. Here are some interesting cruise tidbits we think you might like to know about.
Quantum Leak
Royal Caribbean
has a secret – or at least its trying to keep it secret, but information about
Quantum of the Seas
just keeps leaking out. Last week we learned Quantum of the Seas will be calling on
St. Maarten
beginning in December 2014. And this week, U.K.-based cruise blogger
Malcolm Oliver
revealed some of the first photos of the ship obtained from Meyer Werft. Among the pics available are images of the first steel-cutting and a tank-testing model by which the shape and hydrodynamics of the ship are tested. Oliver also claimed to have discovered the berth statistics for the ship, namely 4,100 passengers, double occupancy and 4,905, full occupancy. Royal Caribbean declined to comment on the leaked information.
A Dry Spring Break
OK, not really, but
Norwegian Cruise Line
is pulling its $49 all-inclusive alcohol package from its ships during Spring Break season, between March 1 and April 15. The package is normally available fleetwide.
Wastewater Rollback
No, we're not talking about sewage splashing around on
Carnival Triumph
. In
, lawmakers officially relaxed legislation regarding cruise ship wastewater discharging. The law reverses a 2006 voter-mandated requirement that cruise ship wastewater meet state water quality standards at the point of discharge, rather than after being mixed with ocean water. Proponents of the law said this brings the requirements in line with requirements for land-side waste facilities. Cruise lines also lobbied for the law, claiming that without the regulation change they would be unable to get permits for their ships to sail in Alaska,
Seatrade Insider reported
Paving the Way for Titanic II
Titanic II inched closer to reality this week as the Chinese shipyard charged with building the replica ship began to upgrade its facilities to prepare for construction. According to
China Daily
, the state-owned shipyard says it will take three years to build the vessel, which is being financed by Australian mining billionaire Clive Palmer. The facility upgrade is being undertaken without a formal contract yet signed. Plans for Titanic II, scheduled to launch in 2016, include nine decks and capacity for 2,400 passengers.
Tall Ship Polish
There's a fine line between classic looking and looking old. To keep its fleet of classic tall ships looking fresh,
Star Clippers
Royal Clipper
Star Flyer
, replacing all soft furnishings,
Cruise Business
reported. Royal Clipper underwent a two-week dry dock in Trinidad in January, during which the dining room, guest cabins and corridors were updated. Star Flyer underwent its dry dock in late 2012.
Flat Fare, Please
port officials have had enough with taxi drivers trying to rip off the cruise-going public. According to the
Baltimore Sun
, officials are asking the Maryland Public Utilities Commission to set a flat rate for taxi service to and from the cruise terminal and three city locations: Fort McHenry, Pennsylvania Station and the Inner Harbor. A decision is expected March 6.

Christopher Kane Goes Ape for Spring 2009
>> Christopher Kane is never one to shy away from pushing the envelope — not even when it involves putting a gaping screenprinted image of a gorilla down the runway — his Spring 2009 collection is inspired by Planet of the Apes (and The Flinestones and Raquel Welch), after all. The circular theme he had going on with all the paillettes in his Fall 2008 collection carried over, this time in the form of layers and layers of chiffon semicircles. In some pieces it was beautiful, in other pieces, a little editing would have gone far — and as for all the marabou, well, we'll just ignore that.

TORONTO A man stole a Toronto fire department truck Monday, turned on the flashing lights and siren, and led police on a wild chase into the countryside.
"I can't ever remember a fire truck being stolen before," said Sean Pearce, an executive officer with the Toronto fire department.
"We run about 300,000 calls each year. It just doesn't happen. This is a real oddball for us."

One day, the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara gazed down upon the Six Realms of existence and was saddened by what he saw there. Despite his vow to help all other sentient beings attain enlightenment, every day there was more suffering in the world, and he could not see an end to it.
In despair, he cried out to the Buddha Amitabha for help – and was answered. The Buddha gave Avalokiteshvara eleven heads with which to hear the pleas and prayers of those who suffer, one thousand arms with which to reach out to them, and, pressed into the palms of his many hands, one thousand eyes to keep guard and help beings see the path towards enlightenment.
This popular Buddhist story, commonly associated with the Kagyu school of Mahayana Buddhism, explains the origin of the thousand-arm manifestation of Avalokiteshvara. One of the most widely venerated bodhisattvas, Avalokiteshvara has male or female manifestations in almost every Buddhist culture and is represented in Buddhist art around the world. One of the most accessible of the bodhisattvas, his mission in the world is to extend the Buddhas' compassion to all humankind, helping us escape from an unending cycle of suffering and death.
At the temple complex of Banteay Chhmar in Cambodia, however, it is humankind's turn to help Avalokiteshvara. Built by the Khmer King Jayavarman VII, who also built many of the better known Buddhist temples in the Angkor temple complex a little more than 100 kilometers to the southeast, Banteay Chhmar is one of the finest Southeast Asian architectural masterpieces of the late 12th Century. Most likely built in honor of King Jayavarman VII's son who died in a war against the Champa kingdom of present-day Vietnam, the temple complex features monumental face towers and a massive moat. Perhaps its most stunning feature, however, is its one-kilometer arcaded enclosure wall, featuring intricately detailed bas-reliefs recording the military, spiritual and cultural history of the ancient Khmer kingdom.
In the southwest sector of this enclosure wall stand two intact bas relief carvings of Avalokiteshvara, each standing at just over two meters tall. Staring out from the rough stone, his feet planted firmly on a lotus flower, his many faces smile with benevolence and his thousand arms spread wide in compassion. Originally, the gallery featured eight of these spectacular carvings, but in January 1999, four of the images were jack-hammered off the wall's stone blocks and loaded onto a truck headed across the Thai border. Two of these stolen treasurers were later found and returned to Cambodia, where they are now on display in the National Museum in Phnom Penh, but the other two remain lost. The four carvings left untouched by the looters have been greatly destabilized by unchecked vegetation growth and the lack of a proper wall foundation. Surveying of the area has revealed that the two southern-most Avalokiteshvara carvings on the wall have collapsed, but they remain buried under the ruins of the roof vaults.
Over the next four years, GHF is planning to undertake the restoration of the Avalokiteshvara carvings in partnership with the Cambodian Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts, the Department of Scientific Computing (IWR) at Heidelberg University, and Friends of Khmer Culture. Due to the incredible artistic, cultural and spiritual significance of the carvings, and their high interest for visitors to the site, the project has become a top priority for restoration work at Banteay Chhmar and is scheduled to begin in earnest in 2013.
Already, the combined GHF-IWR team have commenced documentation and collected data on over 2000 stone blocks from the Avalokiteshvara carvings and recorded four of the extant images – two on site and two in the National Museum - using a 3D scanner.
Once the carved blocks are scanned, they can be examined and manipulated in 3D on a computer, precluding further damage and erosion at human hands. The scans also give the conservation team more accurate data on the relief carvings, as unchecked vegetation growth and the changing light of the jungle can obscure a human-eye view of the carvings' dimensions. As the 3D scans are analyzed and studied in Heidelberg, they will allow the Cambodian conservation team to piece this stone puzzle back together with greater precision and efficiency.
John Sanday, GHF's Regional Director for Asia & Pacific and Project Director at Banteay Chhmar, says, "This collaborative project will be a major breakthrough for the GHF Banteay Chhmar Conservation Training Project as it will enact GHF and the Ministry of Culture's goal to establish the Heritage Conservation Unit, providing the MCFA with a much needed, trained group to take care of the monuments under its care."

EMF is a national registered charity created in 1999. It is an independent organisation that seeks to strengthen democratic values, reduce poverty and injustice in society, and address the growing inequalities in the world system.
EMF works for structural change in order to increase opportunities for those who are the least well off politically, economically and socially. EMF invests in research, dialogue, advocacy and policy analysis to further these goals.
EMF STATEMENT -Dec 2013
The year 2013 has been a year of consolidation and change at EMF. Trustees have substantially overhauled governance, policies and procedures to better enable EMF to deal with the challenges ahead in a period of increasing inequalities and poverty.
It is important to note that EMF does not and has not taken any public funding for its work It operates as a social enterprise and raises its own funds for charitable work.
Trustees also re-called their substantive Chief Executive back from sabbatical to deal with the challenges and help them work through the issues and the changes required.
A number of these changes were triggered when trustees became aware of a number of internal issues in late 2012. This was compounded by the acquisition of a major asset that would require all the charity's energies and focus. Failure to do so would have resulted in serious damage to the charity and our work. We are pleased that high quality leadership from the Board and the staff enabled us to work diligently and secure a stable outcome.
The trustees have kept the Charity Commission informed throughout this time and continue to do so.
We wish to thank all our partners, stakeholders and well-wishers who have been very supportive through out this process. We wish everyone a safe and secure Christmas and a Happy New Year.
We aim to eradicate poverty, injustice and prejudice wherever they exist and promote instead prosperity, fairness and understanding. EMF seeks to foster a cohesive British society where individuals can thrive regardless of their ethnic, religious or socio-cultural background.

TMP's Hockett on the bubble for regional
By AUSTIN COLBERT
Thomas More Prep-Marian High School sophomore wrestler Ricky Hockett was just a couple matches short of qualifying for state as a 120-pound freshman.
TMP wrestling coach Josh Peterson made it a priority for Hockett to up his mental game this season, and it has paid off with a 21-9 record, again at 120 pounds.
"The mental focus is really what we've been focusing on and making smart decisions with our eating. Making smart decisions when you are wrestling," Peterson said. "He made some rookie, freshman mistakes last year and hopefully we don't make those mistakes on Friday."
Hockett will take his improved skills into the Class 3-2-1A regionals Friday and Saturday. TMP will compete at Trego Community High School in WaKeeney along with 22 other schools, with a chance to advance to next week's state championships at Gross Memorial Coliseum in Hays. The top four individuals advance out of the regional.
"Last year I wasn't in anywhere near as good of shape," Hockett said. "I've rounded my skills more. I just feel a lot better than I did last year ... I just got to focus on the next match and take it one match at a time."
Hockett, along with 113-pound freshman Tucker Rhoades, will provide the Monarchs' best shot at advancing past regionals. The pairings won't be announced until Friday morning, with the tournament getting underway later that afternoon.
"I'm expecting them to just continue wrestling hard like they have all year," Peterson said. "They've all worked hard. They've put in some dedication and some time. Hopefully they can win a couple of matches. That's my goal for several of them."
TMP will take its entire seven-man team to regionals. Alongside Hockett and Rhoades will be freshman Josh Plante (12-15 at 126 pounds), freshman Mark Loftus (2-12 at 132 pounds), senior Justin Raynesford (6-20 at 145 pounds), sophomore Jacob Roth (1-9 at 152 pounds), and freshman Chris Stecklein (1-9 at 170 pounds).
Rhoades is expected to make the most noise for TMP. The freshman is 26-7 this season and is ranked No. 4 at 113 pounds in Class 3-2-1A. While this is his first time competing at the high school level, Peterson believes his experience as a successful junior high wrestler should serve him well at regionals.
"He has that experience with the kids wrestling and being to the state tournament. He kind of has that atmosphere. He knows what to expect," Peterson said. "He is going to have to beat probably three good kids to qualify for state, no matter where he is at on the bracket. The same with Ricky. He has to beat three good guys to get qualified for state, and they have that potential."

With the reintroduction of Glen Helen to the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship, the GoPro Hangtown Classic once again finds its place as second on the schedule. And that's alright. The massive hills of the opening round are unlike anything else, and now riders can actually settle into the same riding habits, setup, and pace they will carry through the next 11 stops of the summer series. But it seemed like the drive up California's I-5 had no affect on what transpired in Sacramento, as the same field of riders found their places in the order just laps into each of the four motos. Still, the racing action offered plenty of excitement and added just another interesting chapter into what could be a pair of historic championship chases…

Cramer's 'Mad Money' Recap: How to Gain From the Long-Term Game
Cramer said it's practically impossible to call a bottom in a stock, so if investors are looking to buy 400 shares of an $90 stock they should buy 100 shares right now at the $90 price. Then, if shares slip to $85 a share, buy another 100 shares. Buy 100 more if the price hits $81, then the rest if it falls below $80.
Cramer said he prefers to use wide scales because it affords investors more flexibility. The worst-case scenario in this example would be the stock going higher than $90 a share, in which can you've just made money, albeit less than you were expecting. But in the long run, buying more as a stock goes lower is the right way to buy.
Know When to Sell
"Every stock comes with an expiration date," Cramer told viewers, and the next lesson is all about knowing when to sell.
Cramer said knowing when to sell a stock is every bit as important and knowing when to buy it. That's especially true when it comes to your winners.
Despite the fictional character Gordon Gekko's proclamation that "greed is good," when it comes to gains in your portfolio greed is downright dangerous, said Cramer. Investors have to take some profits in their winners, he said. You haven't really won until you take a little off the table. Why sell your winners? Simple diversification. What was once 15% of your portfolio when you bought it has now grown to over 20%, and according to Cramer's rule on diversification, no single sector should ever account for more than 20% of your portfolio. As for the losers, Cramer said you don't need him to tell you they should be sold, but a frequent rookie mistake is to hold onto your losers and hope they'll someday get back to breakeven. This thinking is the worst kind of amateur mistake. Take the small loss now, he said, and avoid the bigger ones that will likely be coming. Don't give your losers the benefit of the doubt. Cramer said younger investors can afford to wait a little longer to sell than older ones because older investors can't afford to take the risk of losing their gains closer to retirement. Take all of your invested capital out, Cramer concluded, and keep playing with the house's money.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

How about Red Dead? This is impossible on a FAT32 disk.Sponsored Links

How about Red Dead? This is impossible on a FAT32 disk.Sponsored Links
So, what about unplayable games like Modern Warfare (1/2) or White knights chronicles? Does it works if we use the laser discs?
my notebook @ work got a blu ray burner .. will this really work .. and if this is true - a ps3 with dead blu ray drive - but working dvd laser could be used too .. and could the burned dvd-r replace the "original" which is needed for the backup manager to boot a game ?
I don't see the point of this when you can just back them up onto the hard drive and play them. This method removes the continuous disk swapping but yet some people actually want to burn them to DVD. Well it would be helpful to those who can't download games and for those games that don't work internally, i guess you'll be seeing these in the black market soon in popular places.
Hahaha I'm liking this. I get to keep all the 1 year+ old blank DVD's from work (there are so many, and many good ones too, all work fine). I'm liking this option.
This is good news for your site huh?

Giant pumpkins smash police cruiser to cap Maine pumpkin festival...
Maine's annual Damariscotta Pumpkin Fest wrapped up with giant pumpkin growers smashing some of their best produce.
The three-day pumpkin fest was started by growers Bill Clark and Buzz Pinkham, who persuaded local businesses and others to join them.
They had pumpkin boat races, shot pumpkins from a cannon, baked pumpkins into desserts and finally dropped the biggest onto a police car.
Hundreds of people bought tickets for the chance to pull the rope on the big drop.
The pumpkin drop also raises money for the Lincoln County Community Energy fund.
Thousands turned out for the weekend events.

Push for Better CPR Video
Good Housekeeping and the American Heart Association show you the better way to help a heart attack victim
Not moving. Not breathing. Call 911. I need help.
If you ever have to save a heart attack victim, just do chest compressions as fast as possible.
It really takes the fear out of CPR. If you don't know what to do, call 911. Put your hands in the middle of the chest, push hard and fast. And then wait until help arrives.
The American Heart Association says 75 percent of all cardiac arrests happen in or around the home, and doing CPR raises the chances of survival.
And if you start hands-only CPR right away, bystander CPR, you can double or quadruple the survival from cardiac arrest.
Compressions deliver oxygenated blood to the brain and the heart, until an EMS team arrives and they can take over.
To do compressions effectively, push hard and fast in the center of the chest about 100 times a minute or 2 beats per second. Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation is still necessary for drowning victims airway obstruction or children. But for adults who suddenly collapse, hands-only CPR works just as well as hand-only with rescue breathing. Call your local hospital, community center, or Red Cross branch to find CPR courses. And in a pinch, iPhone has an app that features helpful how-tos for a crisis. I'm Terry Anzur for Good Housekeeping reports.
For adults, you press down 1-1/2 to 2 inches.

Age: 18 & Under Skin: Normal, Fair, Warm Hair: Red, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Blue
I don't think I have ever seen a nail polish that is similar to this one. The colour is warm green, not chartreuse, not light green, not dark green... it looks exactly like peas. Really lovely and flattering on my warm, pale skintone.
This is the only nail polish that doesn't make tiny bubbles when applied - especially OPI makes bubbles on my nails, Essie is better but still not as good as this. Illamasqua's polishes are really great, and better than anything else I have tried - especially considering what a huge brand OPI is, that is remarkable.
Excellent pigmentation - it is opaque in two coats, I mean really opaque - you can't see the tips of the nails through it, which was always a problem for me with other brands. No bubbling or streaking... and it lasts a week with minor tip wear, which is good, other brands last about 3-4 days on me.
I have tried a few polishes by Illamasqua and they are all equally awesome. They make really unique colours, usually most brands offer reddish and "natural" shades. I will absolutely get more polishes from Illamasqua... :)

Friends of NIDA Raise Awareness about Prescription Drug Abuse
As noted by increasing lay press coverage, the inappropriate or nonmedical use of prescription medications is a serious public health concern. An estimated 48 million people aged 12 and older, or 20 percent of the U.S. population, have used prescription drugs for nonmedical reasons in their lifetimes. Young adults and elderly persons are particularly vulnerable to abuse or misuse of these drugs, which include prescription pain relievers, stimulants, sedatives, and tranquilizers.
To raise awareness of the problem, on February 23 the Friends of NIDA coalition, working in conjunction with the Congressional Caucus on Addiction, Treatment and Recovery, held a briefing entitled "Prescription Drug Abuse - An Emerging Public Health Threat."
NIDA Director Dr. Nora Volkow provided an overview of the institute's prescription drug abuse and treatment research portfolio. She was followed by Dr. Carol Boyd, Director of the Institute for Research on Women & Gender at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, who discussed results from her NIDA-funded research on the extent of prescription drug abuse in secondary schools and among college students. But perhaps the most poignant presentation came from Nick, a 20 year old man recovering from prescription drug and heroin addiction who told a wrenching story that brought many in the standing-room-only audience to tears. Fortunately, part of Nick's treatment includes one of NIDA's medication development success stories, buprenorphine, which he credited for relieving of him of the craving for heroin.
As always, Science Policy staff are very grateful for Congressman Jim Ramstad's support of these briefings and thank his staffer, Andrew Mckechnie, for helping with the room arrangements. Future briefings may include topics such as NIDA's developmental research portfolio, co-morbidity of substance abuse with other mental disorders, or the Clinical Trials Network.

Funny thing is I just watched Separate Vocations and in the aptitude test Milhouse got Military Strongman as a result, it'd be funny if he actually did make it and became a general.
Fuck how hard can it be? Marcus Licinius Crassus did it and he was bascially a crooked property developer!
That's interesting, although since Milhouse is a chew toy on the show it does make more sense that he'd get discharged before he had a chance to do very much of anything.
Nothing's coming up Milhouse.
