I have a webview containing some text. I need to be able to swipe on the webview
and make text selection at the same time. The problem is after I have implemented the swipe overriding the onTouchEvent
method, the other features of the webview
seem to have freezed, links in the webview aren't clickable anymore, and the text selection (after longClick
) doesn't work anymore, I need to make to implement the swipe and preserve the other features of the webview
I tried to override the longClick
click method as well and use the following method to implement text selection:
public void selectAndCopyText() {
try {
Method m = WebView.class.getMethod("emulateShiftHeld", null);
m.invoke(MyWebView.this, null);
catch (Exception e1) {
KeyEvent shiftPressEvent = new KeyEvent(0,0,KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN,KeyEvent.KEYCODE_SHIFT_LEFT,0,0);
but it didn't work for when this method is called I only get the upper bar for copy/ paste/ search/ websearch...
but no actual selection on the webview
Any hint or suggestion would be truly appreciated.

Ordering for a Team? Let our Team Division Help!
Item has a Minimum Qty
The Sporti Spliced Thin Strap Swimsuit fits all your aquatic activities, designed to last and keep you comfortable in and out of the water.
This suit has some rubbery strips attached to the bottom hem. I assume they are to prevent slippage, but the edges are a bit rough and they irritate my daughter. Removing them doesn't look easy but I'll give it a try to save the suit.
My daughter is on a swim team and loves this suit. It's a little on the larger side, but well made and keeps its shape!
It's a great suit! My daughter wears clothes size 10 so size 12 suit was perfect with just a bit room to grow :). My kiddo loved it!
My daughter loves this suit. Nice coverage all around. Runs a bit small -- ordered a 12, but daughter is long in the torso. Will order a 14 next for a bit of extra room. Great buy!
Good prive - great product!
VERY well made suit - I will re-order in a larger size for my granddaughter. The 12 was more like a snug 10 - but other than that love the suit, it is perfect.
I bought a size 16 for my very slender, but not short 10yo (she wears a size 10 slim in jeans) and this suit was exactly what she was looking for - good fit, but not tight for swim lessons and for play at the beach. She would have needed a smaller size for competition or racing. The pink is beautiful and vibrant and she loves it. The material feels very durable.
Quality of suit is great and the price point is really low, but my 5-year old struggles to get into a size 7. Not too upset about it, but this will only work for a few months, will definitely have to purchase her a bigger one by spring.
Had to order a size 14 to fit my 5 year old! She normally wears a size 6! Good quality suit but horrible sizing.
These suits are definitely not "True to size". They are is actually 2 sizes smaller than the normal suits. I compared them to several other lines of bathing suits. I do not recommend purchasing them.
Get an alert when we add new styles of Sporti! Simply sign up and we'll notify you.

eSpeak is a compact open source software speech synthesizer for English and other languages. eSpeak produces good quality English speech. It uses a different synthesis method from other open source TTS engines, and sounds quite different. It's perhaps not as natural or "smooth", but I find the articulation clearer and easier to listen to for long periods. It can run as a command line program to speak text from a file or from stdin.

My sister has offered to bake cookies for me. However she usually uses her stone and cannot wash it with soap. She does use scolding hot water to wash it. Should I buy her a cookie sheet to use instead?

Yes. What about her mixer? Will she be making cookies with flour on the same day?

Yes! use a different cookie sheet that is only for gluten free! And make sure eveything else she bakes with and uses to touch your food is throughly cleaned before she starts with the gluten-free stuff
Posted 03 December 2012 - 08:55 PM
She said if she's going to bake something else, she'll do mine first. I will get her a cookie sheet to use though. Thanks for the feed back.

Asclepias verticillata (whorled milkweed, eastern whorled milkweed, horsetail milkweed) is a species of milkweed native to most all of eastern North America and parts of western Canada and the United States.[1]
This is a perennial herb with a single stem 1 to 3 feet tall. The very narrow, linear leaves are arranged in whorls. The inflorescence is a cluster of many greenish white flowers.[2]
This species can reproduce vegetatively and does not depend on pollinators, but it does produce some nectar, mostly in the early evening hours. Insect visitors to the plant include wasps, honeybees, and lepidopterans such as moths and the Cabbage White.[3]
The plant is toxic to livestock.[2]
It was used as a medicinal plant by Native American peoples. The Choctaw used it to treat snakebite, the Lakota and Hopi used it to increase breast milk in nursing mothers, and the Navajo used it for nose and throat problems.[4]

WILMINGTON -- More than 40 states in the country have legal protection for gays and lesbians when it comes to hate crimes. North Carolina is not one of these states.
A movement is evolving around a murder that happened 18 years ago in Wilmington.
Talana Kreeger was an open lesbian. On February 21, 1990 a man named Ronald Thomas, whom she had just met, got into an argument with Kreeger about homosexuality, then brutally beat her.
He then left her in woods off Shipyard Boulevard and Carolina Beach Road where she died from a loss of blood. Thomas was convicted and sentenced to life in prison.
Kreeger's murder was not considered a hate crime because gays and lesbians are not a protected group -- unlike race, religion, or gender.
To try and change that Tab Ballis has started making a documentary about Kreeger's murder.
Ballis said, "My hope would certainly be that the lawmakers of our state and our nation would recognize that everyone who pays taxes deserves a similar level of protection under the law."
Ballis already has the backing of state Rep. Catherine McCall. Ballis will be showing excerpts from his documentary Friday night starting at seven o'clock at St. Jude Metropolitan Community Church of 26th Street in Wilmington.
Other advocates for protection for gays and lesbians will be speaking at the event, including Rep. McCall.

If you happened to have seen the Tom Cruise Sci-Fi flick Minority Report (or the more recent Marvel Studios' Iron Man and Avengers movies), you might have been impressed by Hollywood's take on the future of motion-based computer controls. Of course, after seeing these movies, you might easily have dismissed it as a neat gimmick that we are unlikely to see for a decade or more. Proponents of the technology might point out that the Kinect on the XBOX is a pretty impressive piece of technology along those lines. While that is undoubtedly true, it still pales in comparison to the level of control expressed in these movies. Surely we are still a long way from that level of control, right? Not really. In fact, we are far closer than many of us might have guessed. In May of this year, a company called Leap Motion will be debuting their new technological marvel called the Leap Motion Controller and it comes surprisingly close to that fictional control scheme in Minority Report. Not only that, it is also very affordable at just $79.99. The device will actually ship on May 13th to Best Buy stores, and will be compatibile with Windows 7 & 8, as well as Mac OS X 10.7 and 10.8. It will be supported on Linux at a later date. While the actions aren't 100% like they are in Minority Report, and are still quite a ways from the interactive holograms in the Marvel movies, this device is nevertheless a massive step toward those eventualities. Simply check out the demo video above and see for yourself. Also, if you want to pre-order yours, here's a link below. Source: Leap Motion
Wow, thanks for sharing that one. 79.99, hmmm, I may have to go ahead and get this. For those who don't have touch screens at home, this would be one way Windows 8 could succeed.
This is pretty sweet!!! I'm not a huge fan of touch-screens on my desktops but love the idea of motion control like this (especially the pen motions etc). Can't wait to see it in action (i.e. on a normal persons machine not a developers machine).

I'm trying to figure out a way how to auto populate a V-SPEC (Basically a Window Sticker) onto each one of our new Toyotas on my Toyota website. Kind-of like GM and Chrysler dealers can do on their websites. I know I can manually download and apply them but I want to accomplish this in my lifetime. Any ideas?? Do you guys know of any other Toyota dealers that are doing this or have seen this on any other Toyota websites? Please let me know if you have. As always, any help is greatly appreciated.
This sounds like an interesting idea. Here's how I'd approach it. 1. How can we automate the retrieval of the VSPEC PDFs from Dealer Daily? a. Build the correct URLs for each of your dealership's vehicle's VSPEC PDFs. The format is like this, but you'll need to insert an accurate VIN & UID: http://dealer.toyota.com/VehicleSystem/New/VSpec/VSpecDetail.aspx?VIN=JTDKN3DU1C0000000&SelectedDlrCode=&UID=0000000000&Category=G b. Automate the downloading of all the URLs you generated in step a, save the PDFs with meaningful names like VIN or Stock#. 2. Now we've got all the VSPEC PDFs, gotta get them to the VDP a. Convert the PDF to an image and upload it to the VDP along with your vehicle photographs. b. If you have someone doing your inventory photos in-house you could add this to their workflow.
Not that I know of, but a great idea none the less. Maybe we could find enough Toyota dealers that use the same website provider, and then synchronously send that provider the request to automate this [a petition of sorts]. They would probably make it if enough dealers ask for it. Is this wishful thinking? I use Cobalt... anyone else?
Thanks for the reply's guys. After digging around in Dealer Daily yesterday evening and today, from what I can gather, the PDF's are created on the fly. They are not already created setting on a sever somewhere. I've tried numerous times to find a URL to see if they actually do sit on a server but I haven't had any luck. You do have the option to create up to 10 at the time. What I may do is download and upload them to my server and then structure a path for them to get to my primary website. That is a last resort that I want to turn to though because it is extremely time consuming. Especially when your talking about 500-600 cars. BZ- I don't think that its the website providers issues. I think it is more of Toyota that anything. I'm currently using Dealer.com with my sites with the exception of 2. My Toyota site is DDC. I know that DDC is set up with Chrysler and all the window stickers are built into links on the VDP and they link to Chrysler's servers to retrieve the PDF. Same thing goes for GM and Cobalt. I'm sure that DDC or Cobalt can populate the VDP with a link to the VSPEC using the VIN. once it is created and sitting on a server somewhere in the correct format. I will keep playing around with this and figure out a way.
@Rick: Do you realize that your customers cannot reach dealer.toyota.com from their home internet connections? So even if the VSPECs were static PDFs you still wouldn't be able to directly link to them. That is why you must download all of them and store them on your own server, or convert the PDFs to an image and place the images in with your vehicle photos (and let DDC store them). Check out the AutoIt script I have attached to this post, I just used it to download VSPECs for approximately 200 of my new Toyota vehicles and it took about 30 minutes. So, if let the script run unattended on a PC once a week then you can get all 600 of your VSPECs in under 2 hours. If you want to put these VSPECs in with the vehicle photos you could modify the script to convert the PDFs to images after they have been downloaded. You could probably use PDFTK for that.
Rick, I've been waiting for this functionality for years and like you, I believe the issue resides on Toyota's end. We have the window sticker functionality on our Chrysler DDC website and it's an extremely helpful tool for online shoppers and the store's ISM (can help clear up vehicle pricing and equipment questions). Maybe someone from Toyota or a website vendor could chime in with some insight?
@ Art - I just took a look at the script and I'm SUPER, SUPER excited to get this into play this coming week. I used AutoIT for a couple of other functions that I use on my PC and it works great. Thank you for sharing the script. @ BZ - To render multiple VSPEC's all you have to do is hold down the control key, select your vehicles( your selected vehicles will populate towards the top to the page in a yellow window), once your vehicles are selected then just click on the VSPEC icon. It will render upto 10. @ MBissett - The script that Art provided is the answer!! Once I get the VSPECS downloaded and uploaded, it's then just a matter of the proper link structuring for DDC to grab the links and link it to the VDP. I will keep everyone updated on my progress.
Nice work guys. Keep us abreast on how it turns out. You would think the manufacturers would provide their dealers with more valuable assets and content we can use on our websites. In stead they would rather use their resources to knock us for not being compliance issues over a "stress" word used in the title tag for a page. This is a feature that Toyota should and could be providing each dealer website service provider.
@ Art - The script works great. Thank you for sharing that with me / us. I just downloaded all of our VSPECS in about 1hr an 1/5. I actually had to slow the script down a little. It works perfect. I put the call into DDC and I'm waiting to get a response back from those guys. Hopefully, I will have everything set up by Thursday or Friday of this week.
@Rick: Thank you for sharing your idea. We both benefited, 'cause I'm implementing the same thing for my Toyota stores. @Jeff, MBisset, bzweifel: I think the Ford approach to the window stickers is best: free public access for the last ten model years. It would be nice to have that for all manufacturers.
Art, couldn't agree with you more. Kudos to you and Rick for working out an alternative and sharing it with the rest of us, very much appreciated!
Email from who?? I haven't received any emails yet. Still working with DDC to get the VSPEC's linked. I keep running into a wall. BZ- did you get all your VSPEC's Downloaded?
Ok guys. This is where I'm at so far with this project. I haven't gone over this with DDC yet but I'm pretty sure this should not be an issue to plug into the website. I orginally wanted DDC to set up a link on their side that would autofill the link once the user clicked on the "Get Window Sticker" icon on the website but I kept running into a wall. So here is my other idea. Have a form field on the page so the user can copy and paste the vin # into the form field. Once the user clicks on submit, it will autofill the text from the form into the section of the link I tell it to (Link to the specific URL where the VSPEC is hosted) and remove the empty spaces from the form. Here is the javascript that will do just this. <script> function convertURL() { document.go.url.value = document.go.url.value.replace( /\s/g, ""); var url = document.getElementsByName( "url")[0]; var fullurl = document.getElementsByName( "fullurl")[0]; fullurl.value = "http://www.YOUR-URL.com/"+ url.value +".pdf"; } </script> <form name= "go" onsubmit='convertURL();location.href=fullurl.value;return false'> <input name='url' type='text' /> <input name='fullurl' type='hidden' /> <input type='submit' value=" Get Window Sticker " /> </form> I do need a little help from you guys. This script works fine. I want it to open a new window once the user clicks on Submit. Right now it opens in the parent window. So the user can open the new page but it takes them off of my primary website. the user has to hit the BACK button to go back to the page they were on. Where and how do I plug in the "onClick=window.open ()" peice into my current script?
I think that the largest website provider for Toyota dealers nationwide is Naked Lime (believe it or not!)
Well guys, I finally got the links placed onto my inventory pages today for window stickers. They are working exactly as planned from the beginning. I did have to go a few rounds with my account manager at DDC to get this in place after being told that it wasn't possible. It is up and running and working well. Have a look! Pick a car and click into the details page. Beaman Toyota | Nashville Camry, Corolla, Prius, Sienna, Tundra - near Franklin, Murfreesboro & Madison TN
Wow! I was with a Toyota store forever and would have loved having that ability. That saves countless hours of downloading the pdf from dealer daily and attaching it to an email. Could this work for certifieds as well?
Awesome work Rick! I'm working with our website vendor now to see if we can implement the same functionality. Thanks again for sharing!!!

Latest White blood cell Stories
A new study helps to resolve an ongoing controversy about whether Langerhans cells (LCs) in human skin function to suppress the immune response and promote tolerance to normal human skin and its "friendly" microbial flora or mobilize a lethal attack against harmful foreign invaders.
Macrophages play a key role in the immune response, protecting organisms against infection and regulating the development of inflammation in tissue.
Margination, the natural phenomenon where bacteria and leukocytes (white blood cells) move toward the sides of blood vessels, is the inspiration for a novel method for treating sepsis, a systemic and often dangerous inflammatory response to microbial infection in the blood.
Listeria, one of the most deadly causes of bacterial food poisoning, subverts a normally protective immune response to spread its infection more effectively, according to new research at National Jewish Health.
BBSRC-funded researchers at Cambridge University have shed new light on a common food poisoning bug.
The characterisation of a rare immune cell's involvement in antibody production and ability to 'remember' infectious agents could help to improve vaccination and lead to new treatments for immune disorders.
UCLA researchers pinpointed a new mechanism that potently activates T-cells, the group of white blood cells that play a major role in fighting infections.
An inexpensive new medical sensor has the potential to simplify the diagnosis of diseases ranging from life-threatening immune deficiencies to the common cold.
Very recently, researchers discovered an important population of immune cells called memory T cells living in parts of the body that are in contact with the environment (e.g., skin, lung, GI tract).

Yes, we do plan on offering left-handed models of the limited release Tour grind wedges through Vokey.com in the future. No launch details have been confirmed at this time, however.

Barista Interview
I applied online – interviewed at Barnes & Noble.
Filled out an application online, then had an in-person interview with the manager. I initially wanted the position as a bookkeeper and submitted applications for them both, but I interviewed for the barista position in hopes of later being able to cross train.
Decent company with decent employee perks, obviously not the best pay (minimum wage). Seemed to be a positive, team-oriented company with lots of friendly co-workers.
- Asked me about myself and a few other questions, nothing too personal as I think she was trying to hire someone quickly. Said she'd get back to me as she had a few more people to interview, and then offered me the job and invited me for a training session by the end of the week. Answer Question

Barista Interview
Application DetailsI applied online. The process took 3+ months – interviewed at Barnes & Noble.
Interview DetailsThey called to set up an interview a few days after I applied. I was interviewed with another applicant (applying for a different job), and then scheduled for a follow up interview a week later when we were done. The 2nd interview was with the head of the cafe to go over all the questions again and all the expectations. I was called a few months later.
Interview Questions- Several questions related to past work (retail/customer) experience. How you handled problems, helped during special circumstances, etc. Answer Question

Barista Interview
Application DetailsI applied through an employee referral. The process took a day – interviewed at Barnes & Noble.
Interview DetailsInterviewed first with the Cafe Manager and later the same day with the Store Manager. Both of them were pretty relaxed and casual (I got the feeling they were in need of someone in a hurry). They asked me pretty basic questions--example of superior customer service, working well with coworkers. They asked if I had any experience as a barista and availability.

Barista Interview
Application DetailsThe process took 2 days – interviewed at Barnes & Noble in June 2012.
Interview DetailsThe interview was decent. They should come up with different questions other than the generic "have you ever encountered a situation where...", those are such bore and don't really give insight as to what kind of person is being hired. The managers who do the interviews aren't exactly considerate of the questions potential employees have. Simply dismissing concerns will cause what happened to me, quitting after 2 weeks of working. If someone asks twice why they weren't given the position they put down on their application it's a big red hint, take it. Don't lie and say you need to hire Batista because you're short on staff and then have the new employee find out during orientation that someone else got hired as bookseller. There's no use in fooling anyone, the truth gets around eventually.
Interview Questions- Have you ever been in a situation where a customer was being difficult? Answer Question
Negotiation DetailsNot able to negotiate, I even told the managers who did the interviews that I wouldn't be a good fit for the cafe and they simply dismissed that. I think I'd know my own limits and capabilities and if I'm letting you know then you probably should take my heed. I advise anyone interested in applying their to be firm with the position you want. If you want to be a bookseller tell them that you do, they'll say that you can do a transfer from cafe to bookfloor in a few months, that's a lie. There are people who have worked in the cafe for over a year and still haven't gotten a transfer. Also keep in mind that working in the cafe you only get minimum wage, which, in all honesty is not nearly enough to make up for all the work that is needed to be done in the cafe.Accepted OfferNegative ExperienceEasy Interview -
Barista Interview
Application DetailsI applied in-person. The process took a day – interviewed at Barnes & Noble in June 2012.
Interview DetailsFilled out an application at the customer service desk and briefly spoke with the store manager; was hired for a cafe position on the spot. Was only asked about education and availability in terms of hours and days per week I could work (applied for a summer job). Did not negotiate pay; when asked about what would be acceptable, I said anything - and was offered just above minimum wage in my state.

Application DetailsI applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks – interviewed at Barnes & Noble in September 2011.
Interview DetailsIt was a relatively long process for a part time position. I applied in the store (you now apply online only) and after multiple check ins with the store manager, I was finally given a first interview after about three weeks. I met with the assistant manager. That same day they asked to set up a second interview with the store manager. After that interview I had to wait a couple weeks before finding out I was offered the position.

Application DetailsThe process took a day – interviewed at Barnes & Noble in September 2010.
Interview DetailsInterviewers were led to the cafe and told to wait for management to arrive. There I met with the two other potential people and got to know them. The store manager as well as cafe supervisor sat in on the interview, where we were asked why we wanted this position, prior experience, and whether or not we are capable of long hours on our feet.

Barista Interview
Application DetailsI applied in-person. The process took a day – interviewed at Barnes & Noble in June 2009.
Interview DetailsI applied to Barnes and Noble because I love books, but they only had a barista position open (which is fine because I love coffee too). I went to the customer service desk where I asked to fill out an application, and I actually got to meet a manager. We scheduled a interview time for the next week. I her inside the coffee shop in the Barnes and Noble for the interview. I was asked a couple questions, like how I deal with stressful situations, how I would deal with a coworker that was rude to me, and how I deal with customers with high expectations. The lady that interviewed me was really sweet, she just wanted to make sure I would be comfortable in a position where I would have to deal with the occasional rude customer. I was asked to describe some of my best traits. And also why I wanted to work at Barnes and Noble. There were a lot of open ended questions, so you really could tell the interviewer as much as you wanted to about yourself. They were interviewing a million different people at the time, so I didn't feel too bad they didn't call me back (the manager even said not to take it personally if I didn't get a call back because there were so many people interviewing for the same position). It seems like it would be a great place to work.

Barista Interview
Application Detailsinterviewed at Barnes & Noble in May 2008.
Interview DetailsMy local B&N had "open interviews" once per week. I completed the brief, one page application and brought it with me to the weekly interviews. I sat down with a store manager and chatted for about twenty minutes. I then received a call back two days later, at which time I met with a store manager (a different one this time) and had a roughly thirty minute interview. They asked me the basic questions about previous employers, strengths, weaknesses, etc... After that interview, I went through a third round with yet another store manager. Similar questions, though this time the focus was more on how I work with other people and my customer service skills. They offered me a job at the conclusion of that interview. A lengthy process, but well worth it--it was a great position that I held for almost five years.

You thrashed in the man's arms in a panic.
He tried covering your screaming mouth but you bit his hand.
"Owww!" he whined. "That wasn't nice ________!" he continued.
You began sobbing uncontrollably. Shouting for your brothers. This Romano wanna be got into a large black car. Inside, you saw another man that resembled Italy. But his hair was a darker shade of red and he had violet eyes. Not to mention he looked so scary that one glance his way guaranteed you nightmares.
"Ah, you found her!" the Italy copy said with a grin. He reached out for you but you backed away.
"Where are my brothers you meanies!" you shouted.
"Oh silly little ________," the other Italy leaned in close to your face. "We are your brothers."
"Are not!" you shouted childishly.
"Are too!" fake Romano shouted back.
The both of you went at it for a few minutes before fake Italy had enough.
"Both of you shut up!" he hissed. He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. "My name is Luciano. I am Italy's second persona. That happy go lucky nut bar," he gestured to the blonde. "Is Romano's second persona, Flavio."
"I don't believe you!" you stated in a huff.
Luciano growled. "Driver, step on it!"
-------1p POV---------
Romano was getting tense. It had been 15 minutes since you left to go get a drink.
He ever so kindly excused himself from the table. "I'll be back bastardo's."
"_________?" he called. "__________?" His olive eyes glanced out of the window to see you and his 2p!. His 2p! placed you in a black Porsche and stepped in after.
He raced down the stairs and out the UN doors. "_________!" he shouted he ran towards the car as it began speeding away. "Fuck!" He shouted. Italy came tumbling outside at the sound of his brothers voice.
"They have her!" the elder brother shouted. He turned to his younger and fell to his knees "The 2p!'s took ________!"
Italy stood. Shocked into silence. Yet, tears still managed to fall from his honey eyes as he stood stalk still.
The other countries flooded into the parking lot. Spain came over to Romano and hugged him. For one, the italian did not push him away, but pulled him closer.
The brothers briefed everyone on what happened.
"We have to find her!" said Denmark slamming his fist against the meeting room table. Everyone gathered back inside to formulate a plan to get you back. Lord knows what Luciano's crew will do to you. Especially Lutz. A shiver ran down their spines at the thought.
"If that 2p! potato bastard even breaths on our sorellina I will rip out his lungs and make him eat them!" Romano shouted in protest. Everyone looked slightly afraid of him.
"We need a plan!" America shouted over everyone, taking charge. It was strange for him to actually take control like this.
The cowlicked man pinned up a large map of the city. "They couldn't have gotten that far. Knowing Flavio, he will want to stop for coffee or something," he started to draw lines all over the map.
England and France came to look over his shoulder along with the other Allies. "What if he doesn't-" England started but America shushed him.
"Okay dudes! So we will infiltrate their headquarters right? Then we, as in us Allies, will get inside and will shoot the bad guys like 'pew pew! bang!'-" England smacked him upside the head.
"Focus you twat!"
America laughed nervously. "R-right!" he continued. "The you Axis people get _______ and you Nordic people watch the area and the rest of you too! Help if they try to escape with _______!"
Germany growled in frustration, tried of just hanging back. "Small problem. We don't know where they are!" he shouted.
"Oh...yeah..." America pouted.
"I have a solution." Austria said calmly, standing from his seat.
"We don't need your fucking help!!" Romano practically screamed. He bolted up from his seat and knocked over his large oak chair.
Austria sighed. "I understand that in the past, I had done something unforgivable to Venice," he looked the Italian brothers dead in the eyes. "But now, I have a way to redeem myself in a way. Please, I can help her."
Romano was panting with rage. Italy came over and gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. Romano seated himself and growled low in the back of his throat. "Fine. Speak piano bastard."

Once me and my mates make more progress in co-op, i'll then play catch up with the other characters. So far i'm liking siren the best. There is more to her combat wise then the others. I think mechromancer will be similar.
Love it, could be my 2012 GOTY. I have a ton of faith in dishonored tho, which is just around the corner.

A screenshot reMIX from an Independence Conversation with RegularJoe, Parker Posey & DaperDan.
This is kind of random. I was planning on making a more serious reMIX (at least in tone since they were talking about religion and all) but as I worked on it I realized it was Parker's quote that hit me the most from this clip, so I underscored that instead.

YOU ARE PROUDLY SOUTH AFRICAN WHEN: # You call a bathing suit a "kossie". # You call a traffic light a "robot". # You call an elevator a "lift" # You call a car hood a "bonnet" # You call a car trunk a "boot" # You call a pickup truck a "bakkie" # You call a Barbeque a "Braai" # Employees dance and sing in front of the building to show how unhappy they are. # You get cold easily. Anything below 16 degrees Celsius is Arctic weather. # You know what Rooibos Tea is, even if you've never had any. #You can sing your national anthem in four languages and you have no idea what it means in any of them. # You know someone who knows someone who has met Nelson Mandela. # You go to braais regularly, where you eat boerewors and swim, sometimes simultaneously. # You produce a R100 note instead of your driver's licence when stopped by a traffic officer. # You can do your monthly shopping on the pavement!!!!! # You have to hire a security guard whenever you park your car. # You know a taxi can move twice its certified number of people in one trip. #You travel 100's of kilometers to see snow. # You know the rules of Rugby better than any referee! # More people vote in a local reality TV show than in a local election. # People have the most wonderful names: Christmas, Goodwill, Pretty, Wednesday, Blessing, Brilliant, Gift, Precious, Innocence and Given, Patience, Portion, Coronation. # "Now now" or "just now" can mean anything from a minute to a month. # You start every sentence with yes/no or ja/nee. #You continue to wait after a traffic light has turned to green to make way for taxis travelling in the opposite direction. # Travelling at 120 km/h, you're the slowest vehicle on the freeway. # A bullet train is being introduced, but potholes can't be fixed. # The last time you visited the coast you paid more in speeding fines and toll fees than you did for the entire holiday. # You have to prove that you don't need a loan to get one. # Prisoners, Doctors , Nurses , Traffic policemen and Teachers go on strike # Parliamentarians sleep in Parliament if they are present . # You don't stop at red traffic lights, just in case somebody hijacks your car. # Petrol is more expensive than Beer. #Saying you are black is affirmative, but saying you are white is racist. :bonk::happywave::third::bighello::beer:
And if I may add: Red meat should be eaten at breakfast, lunch and dinner, all in between snacks and for dessert. The pedestrian right of way means that pedestrians have the right to quickly get the hell out of the way of oncoming traffic. If the pedestrians fail to exercise this right in a timely manner, this is of no consequence to any drivers.
# Prisoners, Doctors , Nurses , Traffic policemen and Teachers go on strike Add: Petrol Station Attendants and Fuel Truck Drivers, # Overtaking is done in all lanes and shoulders. Often and certainly at speed and simultaneously.
Great Stuff Guys,,,I lived in the Florida Keys for a Couple Years ,,I have a few that parallel SA and a few I could Add
Stop lights, pedestrian right of way and speed limits are a goal and not a strict requirement! Red meat takes Big Red at every meal (ketchup).
