Karma looks so different compared to her old look. Also someone said Sivir is in the corner. I don't see her.
Aazera Theone
What if, to appease us fan lovers, some of her new emotes included her taking out a fan from her hip and fanning herself with it or something? Like for her new laugh: (take out and flick open fan, place over face and giggle) or something like that. Just to play to her old design, similar to how Janna makes a callback to her old VO in one of her new emotes. I'd be happy with that. :3
Senior Member
in my opinion, i think players who owned her up to the date of the LEAK should get the skin, most ppl would just end up grabbing for a free skin
Onyx Blossom
Will Karma's other skins be getting unique particle effects? Like Sun Goddess has bright, orange, and red particles. While Sakura may have flowery, bright shades of pink? I own both skins so I am quite curious?
are rioters just ignoring us? they always say that they listen to us.. but when everyone is sad about the changes they make.. they just ignore us and keep going with their ideas
Dingus Maximus
".....Weve also taken her Ionian ties a step further: her magic springs from the crest of twin dragons in her mantle, literally and figuratively transforming her into a symbol of her homeland." So........she'll be able to turn into a dragon....?
Aeolian Melodies
Awesome. I can't wait to see her new kit, but that new artwork and model, wow. I have only one word and that word is GORGEOUS.

I have never "crossed" Delaware Bay, I have made several trips between the C&D Canal, Salem NJ, and Cape May. There are numerous shoals on the Cape May side, so it is important to study the chart well. Also, you need to be on the lookout for the Cape May/Lewes Ferry that goes back and forth in these waters. Delaware Bay also has a good deal of commercial traffic, so you should be prepared for that as you cross the approaches to the shipping channel. I am guessing you are going to enter Cape May Inlet, but if you are using the canal, there is a fixed bridge with a vertical clearance of about 50 ft.

So I've been using bore snake since 2008 or so... I thought they were the best way to clean a barrel quickly. and I figured they would remove most of the carbon....
fast forward to today, I shot my M&P9c and it was getting groups tigther than usual. like amazingly accurate compared to before (which was what I expected out of a compact pistol). I had actually cleaned it with bore-eliminator the prior week just out of curiousity on how it would perform after a squeky clean barrel... (when I cleaned it with bore-elim, it was after the range session, so I knew the bore would be dirty)
Today, I decided to clean a pistol that I had cleaned with a bore-snake after a range session... so it should have been clean right? After the first patch with a properly sized brass jag, this is the amount of carbon/lead that came out (ignore the blue copper remover color, that's from the brass jag) then after brushing the inside then running a wet bore eliminator patch again, look at all that build up it removed. (H&K mk23 barrel)
I used CLP in the bore followed with the bore snake, then applied tuf-glide lastly to protect the metal.
I'm just amazed how much stuff was left over... looks like after a range session, this is how I will be cleaning my bores from now on. it's more tedious work, but that's too much left over in my book. and after I saw how much more accurate my M&P9c shot today, I'm satisfied

Yes, Ringo is the successor who put the Sleeping Forrest back together and all, but I do not believe she is King of Sonia road... I do know she is the leader of the current Sleeping Forrest and she beat the living helll out of Shimuka...
look the king of sonia road was rikka,ringo has another road if i have understand well!
Allow me to disregard what you've just said.
yeah..so its confirmed then...ringo seems to be the king of sonia road...lol

oh yeah, and what does "crazy apple" refer? is it ringo's nick? (eg. rika = queen of thorns, kazu = stealth)

8 kings
and the wingroad king is the kink of the other 8 kings correct .
so there are 9 kings then.
Rofl. The Gear for Air Road was destroyed. Remember how the former King of Air had his kneecaps broken? Yeah, well, you do know that the wheels of his Gear are the wheels that said "Welcome" and "To Nightmare"?
O.o isnt there surpose to be 8 king altogether?Originally Posted by yoko_kyuubi
World without men: No crime and lots of happy fat women
No. King of Air is one of the eight kings.
Air, the former King of Air Road, was the leader of Sleeping Forest. That is why he seems to be the King of all others, but he is not. Besides, there is eight roads total.

Taxing the taxSubmitted by Oh snap (not verified) on Wed, 12/02/2009 - 8:02pm.
My friend, they already have that covered.
Take the North Carolina College Fund program.
It supposedly gives you a break on investing in education for the future.
The state can change the rules whenever they want.
But....if you don't comply with all the rules and regulations, you pay state, federal taxes, and substantial penalties.
Look into it...just like the end of a car commercial with the 12,000 word a minute guy spouting out the small print.

US 7483706 B2 Abstract A system apparatus for wireless communication that includes receiving, receiving data for a subscriber, determining the subscriber to whom the data is addressed, determining which cell the subscriber currently resides, and transmitting the data accordingly.
Claims(6) 1. A method for providing wireless communication comprising the steps of:
receiving a request for a wire network address;
forwarding a request to assign a wired network address to a wireless station;
receiving the wired network address for the wireless station;
storing data associating the wired network address with the wireless station;
determining, based on the wired-network address, whether the subscriber is located in a certain cell site, wherein said determining step includes:
retrieving a subscriber record;
matching the wired-network address to the wireless station in the subscriber record; and
transmitting the wired network address to the wireless station.
2. The method of
3. The method of
4. The method of
if the subscriber is located in the certain cell site, sending the data, via a tunnel, to the certain cell site for wireless transmission.
5. The method of
receiving from the certain cell site, via a backhaul network, handoff information for the wireless station.
6. The method of
creating a tunnel to the certain cell site.
Description This application is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/820,534, filed Apr. 8, 2004 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,133,684 which is a continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 09/328,663, filed Jun. 9, 1999, now U.S. Pat. No. 6,725,047. The entire teachings of the above applications are incorporated herein by reference. The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. In particular, the present invention relates to using a floating address for use in roaming network service. The present invention provides an addressing protocol for use in a wireless computer network in which a subscriber is assigned a network address based upon an original location in the network. As the subscriber moves throughout the network, data for the subscriber is routed to a cell site server at the subscriber's original location. The cell site server determines whether the subscriber is located in the original cell site, in which case it causes the data to be transmitted to the subscriber over a wireless link, or whether the subscriber has moved to a location serviced by a second cell site server. In the latter case, the first cell site server causes the data to be tunneled to the second cell site server. To connect to the Internet, every terminal requires an Internet Protocol (IP) address that uniquely identifies the node's point of attachment to the Internet. In other words, a node must be located on the network as indicated by its IP address to receive data destined to it; otherwise, data destined to the node would be undeliverable. IP network address allocation and administration have historically assumed that there is a close relationship between a computer's IP address and its physical location. In a wireless communication network, however, a subscriber can travel between various cells, thereby receiving transmissions from a variety of base stations. The transmissions are handed off from one base station to another as the subscriber travels from one cell to another. If such a system were to be attempted for Internet routing, when a terminal connects to the Internet while in a particular cell, the base station in that cell connects to a server that provides the IP address for the mobile unit. As the terminal moves through the geography and approaches another base station, a handoff is performed. That is, the transmission between the terminal and the base station is handed off to another base station. This other base station is now responsible for routing data packets. Of course, moving across a network creates addressing problems that are peculiar to the mobile environment. Specifically, as a terminal moves from point to point on a network, the network must somehow know where the terminal is located so that data packets can be delivered to the terminal. If the terminal requests data in one cell, for example, and travels to another cell, the network must know the terminal's present location so that data packets can be accurately delivered. Unfortunately, because a base station in a first cell may not be in direct communication with a base station in a second cell, traffic can be lost during a handoff. Thus, when a handoff occurs, a terminal's connection to the Internet can get dropped because the new base station does not know the terminal's IP address for data exchange with the Internet. To account for this addressing problem in the current art, if one connects to the Internet in a mobile environment, a technique called Mobile IP is used. This Mobile IP is a modification to IP that allows nodes to continue to receive data no matter where they happen to be attached to the Internet. Internet nodes typically use the IP address of a destination node when searching for connections to that destination. Thus, the IP address of a remote endpoint also serves to identify the endpoint. For mobile computers, a destination network is known as the home network. Since the mobile node appears to the rest of the Internet as if it were actually located on the home network, it can be called the home address of the mobile node. If the source of the packet is assumed to be an Internet node with no special modification for mobility support, the source will be unaware whether anything special happens when a packet arrives at the home network. If, however, the mobile node is not directly attached to its home network, then the packet requires a �care of� address to find the next node. Because the packet can only follow the mobile node by utilizing the existing Internet infrastructure for the intervening hops, Mobile IP changes the data's address scheme so that a packet is able to follow the mobile node off the home network. This operation of changing the address of the packet for further routing is known as readdressing. The operation of readdressing a packet transforms its original destination IP address, the home address that identifies the mobile node, into a different destination IP address, namely, the care-of address, which locates the mobile node. Additionally, for supporting mobility, the inverse of the readdressing function must be performed. That is, if one agent applies an address translation function to a packet destined for a mobile node, the inverse function should be provided so that the nodes with which it corresponds can operate in a symmetrical manner. Otherwise, the mobile node's home address, identifying the higher-level protocol connection status control blocks, would not be available in the same way as expected by the node that originally sent the packet. Typically, higher-level protocols do operate in this symmetric fashion. The care-of address is used in lieu of an IP address, but requires a new set of protocols and modifications to the existing network stack. Because of the need for a care-of address, a central location must be maintained that collects all traffic to be forwarded. Additionally, modifications must be made to network components and the existing network stack. Furthermore, a new set of protocols are required to employ Mobile IP. None of these alternatives are optimal, given the severe scaling problems that are especially relevant considering the explosive growth in mobile computers. Thus, a need exists in the current state of the art for a mobile network that does not require substantial modifications to the existing network components and protocols. To alleviate the problems inherent in the prior art, systems and methods are introduced that allow for roaming subscribers to send and receive data on a network in a direct way. In one embodiment of the present invention, data for a subscriber is received in a first cell. Using a wired-network address in the received data, the intended subscriber is identified, and once the subscriber is identified, it is determined whether the data was received via a tunnel on a backhaul network. If the data was received via the tunnel, then the wireless-network identifier of the subscriber is retrieved, and the data is sent to the subscriber. If the data was not received via a tunnel, it is determined whether the subscriber is presently located in the first cell if the subscriber has traveled to a second cell. If the subscriber is located in the first cell, the wireless-network identifier is retrieved from a database, and using this identifier, the data is transmitted to the subscriber. If the subscriber is not located in the first cell, the cell site in which the subscriber is presently located is identified, and the data is sent via a tunnel to that cell. The subscriber's wired-network address can be requested from an address server. The address server identifies the originating cell site of the wired-network address, and an unoccupied address that is associated with the originating cell site is assigned to that subscriber. If the wired-network address expires, or is near expiration, a request is received to renegotiate the wired-network address lease. The address server then determines the present location of the subscriber. If the subscriber is not in the same call site as when it received its present address, the present cell site is identified, the request is denied, and a new wired-network address is assigned to the subscriber. This new wired-network address is associated with the cell site in which the subscriber currently resides. In other embodiments, the invention concerns techniques for providing wireless communication by transmitting, from a wireless station, a request for a wired network address to a first cell cite over the wireless network. The cell site then responds by forwarding an address request to an address server, the request being a request to assign a wired network address to the wireless station. The address server then returns a wired network address for the wireless station. The first cell site stores information associating the wired network address with the first wireless station, to permit subsequent determination of whether the first wireless station is located in the cell site by matching of the wired-network address to the first wireless station. Optionally, the the assigned wired network address is then used by the first wireless station when communicating with the wired network via the first cell site. The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following more particular description of preferred embodiments of the invention, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which like reference characters refer to the same parts throughout the different views. The drawings are not necessarily to scale, emphasis instead being placed upon illustrating the principles of the invention. The present invention relates to a wireless communication system. In particular, the present invention relates to a roaming network service. The communication system 100 can be adapted to communicate with a computer network 200 such as the Internet. Each cell site server 120 a-120 c is associated with a predetermined number of network addresses that are relevant to data routing functions that can be performed by the computer network 200. For example, in an Internet application, a cell site server 120 a can be associated with a predetermined number of IP addresses. One of the addresses is associated with a �tunnel� function described herein. The other addresses can be associated with subscribers on a dynamic basis. The cell site servers 120 a-120 c can be provided in direct communication with the computer network 200 as shown in The communication system can include a plurality of mobile stations 140. The mobile stations 140 can communicate selectively with the base stations 130 a-130 c of the communication system 100 over radio frequency communication links using, for example, Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) transmissions. As the name implies, the mobile stations 140 can migrate 7 throughout the cell sites 110 a-110 c of the communication system 100. The communication system 100 also can include an address server 150. The address server 150 contains in memory a table of the various network addresses of the cell site servers 120 a-120 c. An example of an address server 150 is a DHCP server. The address server 150 can communicate directly with the computer network 200 as shown in At step 202, the address server identifies, from its database, an unoccupied address associated with the originating cell site. At step 203, the address server marks the address as in use, and at step 204, the address server 150 transmits the address to the cell-site server, identifying it as being assigned to the subscriber. The cell-site server 120 a then stores information associating this wired-network address with a specific subscriber at step 205. After the address is assigned to a subscriber, the subscriber can roam the network, being handed off from one base station to another as the subscriber travels from one cell to the next. At an appropriate time in the roaming, the mobile station communicates with a second cell site server. This communication can include telling the second cell-site server the mobile station's wired network address, or a wireless-network identifier such as an electronic serial number (ESN). If the data was received via a tunnel, then at step 303, the cell site server 120 a retrieves a wireless-network identifier for the intended subscriber, and repackages the data (step 304) for transmission to the subscriber. For example, the wireless-network identifier can be an electronic serial number (ESN). (The invention is not, however, limited to the use of an ESN; any suitable identifier can be used.) At step 305, the cell site server routes the data to the base station for transmission to the subscriber. If at step 303 the data was not received via a tunnel, then at step 306, the intended subscriber's record is received from a database, and the cell site server determines whether the mobile station is in the cell site of the cell site server 120 a. If the subscriber is presently located in the cell site of cell site server 120 a (i.e., the cell that is serviced by the cell-site server), then at step 303, the subscriber's wireless-network identifier is retrieved, the data is repackaged for transmission by a base station at step 304, and is routed to the base station for transmissions to the subscriber at step 305. If the subscriber is not presently located in the cell serviced by the cell-site server, then at step 307, using the subscriber's record, the cell site server retrieves a tunnel address of a cell site server 120 b associated with the mobile station. The cell site server 120 a repackages data for the cell site server 120 b and tunnels it using the tunnel address.

ABC News' Dan Arnall (@abcmoneyguy) reports:
The results of the debt limit increase became apparent this afternoon as the official Treasury Daily Statement finally ticked up above the $14.294 trillion limit that was the focus of so much debate during the past several months.
The nation's official debt total was updated to reflect the "borrowing" we did during the May to August period from Federal worker retirement savings.
The new official national debt figure stands at $14,580,705,000,000 (14-trillion, 580-billion, 705-million dollars) as of the end of the day on Aug. 2.
The amount subject to the new debt limit is $14,532,332,000,000 – just $162 billion below the new limit Congress agreed to ($14.694 trillion).
Based on the average daily growth of the nation's debt that gives us just 46 days of new borrowing before we rub up against the debt ceiling again. Of course, the compromise provided for up at least $2.1 trillion in debt limit increases in the coming years, so financial catastrophe isn't right around the corner.
You could buy 224 billion bottles of Jameson Irish Whiskey Gold Reserve with the current debt… Knowing how quickly we'll be talking about budget deficits and cuts again, I think I'll take one of those bottles, please.

UCLA, Arizona among nation's best
Originally Published: May 17, 2012
Joel Francisco | ESPN RecruitingNation
Here's a team-by-team breakdown of the Pac-12's 2012 recruiting classes.
UCLA Bruins
Ben Howland's misfortunes on the recruiting trail have suddenly taken a revolutionary shift thanks to his hauling in the No. 1 recruiting class. It all starts with the No. 2 recruit in the country, 6-foot-5 small forward Shabazz Muhammad (Las Vegas/Bishop Gorman), who has the ability to be in the discussion for Pac-12 player of the year next season due to his scoring prowess. Next, Howland enticed No. 5 overall Kyle Anderson (Fairview, N.J./St. Anthony), the point forward type who dissects the defense with his precision passing. If anybody took in any of the Bruins' games last season, they were in dire need of a shooter, and they corralled one in smooth-shooting 6-5 guard Jordan Adams (Lawrenceville, Ga./Oak Hill Academy). Last, but certainly not least, Howland landed ultra-skilled 6-8 big man Tony Parker (Lithonia, GA./Miller Grove), who will put immediate pressure on current Bruins starter Josh Smith to perform at a higher level.Arizona Wildcats
Sean Miller and his staff have scoped the entire country, and they have come up with a loaded class chock full of athleticism and skill. Miller and his Wildcats staff clawed their way to the likes of 6-9 power forward Grant Jerrett (La Verne, Calif./La Verne Lutheran), 6-8 power forward Brandon Ashley (Henderson, Nev./Findlay Prep), 7-0 center Kaleb Tarczewski (Claremont, N.H./St. Marks School) and 6-2 guard Gabe York (Orange, Calif./Orange Lutheran). Jerrett might turn out to be the best prospect out west due to his skill set inside and out, while Ashley is a diamond in the rough considering his length and blossoming skills. Meanwhile, Tarczewski is a much-improved 5-man who should provide a solid anchor in the paint area, while York can light up a score board from anywhere on the court. However, point guard is still a major issue going forward for a program noted for producing quality ones.To continue reading this article you must be an Insider

Using the magnetic poles of the earth, propulsion of magnetic objects is a natural phenomena. Windmills rely on wind, which is obviously not a stable source. Water-based generators, such as dams, rely on water levels - which is also not a consistent source of flow and speed.
Magnetic propulsion is a constant. Magnetic propulsion is able to produce movement within a compass, without electricity and at the same rate, 24 hours a day - 7 days a week. It never fails.
What if you were to place a gear inside of a compass? If your magnet were strong enough to turn the gear, you could produce movement. Just as a wind-up radio operates from the friction of gears, your compass could produce natural electricity with the movement against an opposite gear.
Storing this energy would involve attaching a generator to the bottom of the device. From gears to wires to the energy-storage/transfer unit, a constant electrical generation process would occur with a magnet that could consistently spin against the natural magnetic poles of the earth.
This would provide free energy to billions of people. The amount of energy would obviously be based on the size of the internal magnet - which governs the speed and force of the propulsion. The more resistance that you are able to produce against the natural magnetic pole force, the more propulsion that you will achieve to turn the gears within the "compass."
Obviously, I am not talking about using a compass as a generator. This is the model design of propulsion - a magnetic field resistance. If you were to place a positive magnet against another positive magnet, it would move away. This is the idea. Continuous movement of the magnets can be achieved with the natural magnetic field of the earth.
One compass magnet, pointed any direction, on a base. The base is similar to a top. (Remember the "spinning tops" back in the day? Yeah, one of those.) The magnet and compass are within a pole attached to the base; which spins around in circles. The base simply spins and provides gears for the electrical generation.
The magnet that is manually started with a simple turn will continue to turn if the magnet is strong enough. The magnetic force against the magnetic field of the earth will continue propulsion. If your magnet is stronger than gravity (equationally speaking), you have a constantly-spinning "top."
Catching this energy with gears is all that is required to create a generator from magnetic forces.
Another method of producing this same effect, with only the use of magnets, would involve a 2-level alternating spin. With 2 levels of magnets on a base, with each spinner at a 45 degree angle, the positive magnets should alternate with the negative magnets. This would also produce a constant spin, and therefore - electricity (when you add gears to catch it).
Magnetic energy is free, is always replenished (and plentiful / infinite in supply), and does not harm the environment. I can't produce this invention, so I hope that someone who can makes good use of this idea. I don't have enough money to build this stuff.
Hemp fuel and magnetic energy could power, employ, and feed the entire world. Oil is big business because corporations have made it that way. Oil should never be used for energy, and neither should any type of nuclear technology ever be deployed.

Chinese Media Accuse Starbucks of Inflating Prices
If you balk at the price of your morning Starbucks drink, remember that you don't have it as bad as those drinking that same beverage in China. According to CNN, the Chinese media has accused the coffee giant of making consumers pay more for their lattes, moccachinos, and americanos than the majority of markets around the globe.
State-backed China Central Television (CCTV) and the China Daily newspaper reported that the cost of a medium-size latte at Starbucks in Beijing costs 27 yuan ($4.42), while that same latte costs just $4 in London and $3.20 in Chicago. It's not just the coffee that the media is accusing Starbucks of price gouging. The reports allege that a coffee mug at Starbucks in the U.S. goes for between $10-14, while in China, where it is produced, that same mug can cost as much as $18.
More From Delish: Starbucks Around the World
China is one of Starbucks' biggest markets; in 2014 it will be second only to the U.S. According to a statement the company released to Reuters, its pricing is based on a number of variables, including "local business costs such as labor and commodity costs, infrastructure investment, currency and real estate." In an interview on CCTV, Wang Zhendong, director of the Coffee Association of Shanghai, explained that the coffee giant has been able to enjoy their inflated prices due to "blind faith of local consumers in Starbucks and other Western brands." However, Starbucks defends its pricing, telling Reuters, "Each Starbucks market is unique and has different operating costs, so it would be inaccurate to draw conclusions about one market based on the prices in a different market."
More From Delish: Starbucks to Open 800 New Stores in China
Starbucks is not the first foreign company to come under attack in the Chinese media. Recently Apple was scrutinized and accused of using refurbished parts to fix their products in China, then limit warrantees to one year, according to CNN.
Do you think Starbucks is over-charging in China?

AQHA Board of Directors Voted on Key Rule Changes at Convention Press Release
March 11, 2004 - The American Quarter Horse Association Board of Directors voted last Tuesday afternoon on the recommendations of the AQHA standing committees as approved in the general membership meeting. The following is the final results of the vote regarding hyperkalemic periodic paralysis and the white rule. For complete results of board actions, please read the May issue of The American Quarter Horse Journal.
The board voted that foals of 2007 and later tracing to the stallion Impressive be required to be parentage verified and, in addition, tested for hyperkalemic periodic paralysis subject to the guidelines in rule 205 (c) (1). In addition, foals of 2007 and later testing homozygous positive for HYPP (H/H) will not be eligible for registration with AQHA. The board also supported a recommendation made by the AQHA Executive Committee to commence an education and awareness campaign informing the membership of the effects of HYPP.
The board voted to delete rule 227 (c) as it applies to the numbered and appendix registries, but to require any horse with white over the current limits to be parentage verified.
The board did amend the stud book and registration committee's original recommendation by adding the following wording as rule 205 (d): "Breeders should be aware that the American Quarter Horse, while long recognized, identified and promoted as a solid-colored horse, can and does occasionally produce offspring with overo paint characteristics. Such markings are uncharacteristic of the breed and are considered to be undesirable traits."
"AQHA is currently working on computer programming and procedures with plans to complete the process by May 1." said AQHA Executive Director of Registration Gary Griffith. "Members can watch this site for updates and information concerning horses that might be affected by this rule change."
During the annual convention, year-end high-point and all-around winners were recognized during the AQHA Awards Banquet on Saturday night, March 6.
Six men, one woman and four horses were inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame during an emotional ceremony on Sunday, March 7. Those inducted include legends BABY DOLL COMBS, THE INVESTER, COLONEL FRECKLES and RONAS RYON. People inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame were Bert Wood, Bud Alderson, Buster Welch, Jack Brooks, Mildred Janowitz, Rob Brown, and Don Burt.
Two AQHA Legacy Awards were presented to the family of Jay Parsons and Kleinpeter Quarter Horses for breeding American Quarter Horses for 50 consecutive years.
Cliff Keesee was named 2003 Merle Wood Humanitarian.

Gamers rejoice! Cerebral Gardens, a software development studio specializing in iOS and Mac apps, is launching the "first game for Apple TV" through the App Store. It's called Party Doodles, and it's a multiplayer, interactive party drawing and guessing game game you'll certainly be busting out at your next gathering. Dave Wood, the founder and president of Cerebral Gardens, calls Party Doodles the first game ever designed specifically for the Apple TV, and it's certainly about time. And when integrated with AirPlay, it really represents the next generation of gaming.
"The mythical Apple television set that everyone talks about is already here," said Jeremy Allaire, CEO of Brightcove, in an interview with The Verge. Brightcove, a provider of cloud content services, has just unveiled the App Cloud Dual-Screen Solution for Apple TV. The new solution enables media publishers to develop apps for the iPhone and iPad that simultaneously control content, data and information presented on an HDTV while displaying synchronized content on the iPad or iPhone.
At the event held today in San Francisco, Apple announced the new, third-generation Apple TV. It supports full 1080p video playback, comes with a simpler, redesigned, icon-based user interface and runs on Apple single-core A5 chip (as opposed to A4 in Apple TV 2 and A5X in iPad 3).
The updated Apple TV features 1080p programming including iTunes movies and TV shows, Netflix, Vimeo, photos and live sports from MLB, NBA and NHL in HD. Apple has expanded its iTunes in the Cloud functionality in iCloud, giving users the ability to access purchased movies and TV shows right from iCloud on the Apple TV. With iCloud, you can now buy movies and TV shows on Apple TV and watch them on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or PC.

Suntech takes over GSF fund ownership
07. March 2013 | Industry & Suppliers, Markets & Trends | By: Becky BeetzSuntech Power Holdings Co., Ltd has reached a settlement regarding its fraud dispute with GSF Capital Pte Limited (GSF Capital). A part of the agreement has seen the Chinese photovoltaic manufacturer taking over ownership of the GSF Fund.
At the end of last July, Suntech announced it had launched an investigation into the possibility that a security interest it received in May 2010 in connection to its GSF investment totaling €560 million, was fraudulent.
In mid-August, the company obtained a court order to freeze both GSF Capital's and Javier Romero's – the former manager of the general partner of the fund – global assets, and remove Romero from his managerial role in the Global Solar Fund, S.C.A., Sicar.
In a statement released today, Suntech said the court orders would be discharged and that GSF Capital would dispose of its entire ownership of the fund. "Suntech's equity interest in the Fund will increase from 79.3% to 88.15% and the equity interest owned by Best (Regent) Asia Group Ltd., a company ultimately held by Dr Zhengrong Shi, will increase from 10.7% to 11.85%," said the company in a statement released.
CEO, David Kind added, "We are very pleased to have reached this settlement. The new ownership structure will ensure that Suntech has full control of the Global Solar Fund and can manage and operate the Fund's portfolio of solar plants to maximise the value for our stakeholders."

Hey guys,
My name is Josh. I'm currently stationed at Fort Hood, TX. I you guessed I have recently received a Tacoma. When I returned from my last overseas tour I bought my wife a car. So recently I've been complaining about needing my own vehicle to get back and forth to work(as she works in Austin). My bud let me borrow his Ram 2500. This being the first truck I've had in a long time. So I told my wife I wanted a truck I loved how the Tacomas looked and she put 2 and 2 together. I now have a 2011 Tacoma Dbl cab, 2 wheel drive, leather interiour, TRD sport. Has been in my possession for 4 hours as of now lol.
My other current vehicles are, 2006 Audi A6 3.2, and my baby and 06 Ninja 636 (we've been to hell and back). My previous vehicles are as follows; 2011 Mustang premium..but it was a v6, a 01 and 05 civic EX, a 96 Caprice cop car, a 87 cutlass supreme, an 88 Supra turbo, a 2000 Kia Sephia, and lastly my pride and joy my 1988 Porsche 944 turbo.
Ok now back to the truck. I've never owned a truck nor do I know anything about offroading, except from watching prerunner, dakar, rally, and baja racing. From what I gather off of this site, to do any really rough terrain ie mud and deep snow, a 4wd is optimal. I realize this but so far I'm happy with this truck. If not for the truck the fact my wife is willing to spend her hard earned money on me, so I will not be complaining and or trying to get rid of it for a 4 wheel drive.
Now onto the questions. I'm still in the process of reading through the forum so bear with me. First what can I do to maximize the potential of my 2wd? I do not have the atrac and locking rear options. Should I have that put in down the road? I do want to go off road. Most of the good areas around here are desert/gravel, with a hint of mud once every blue mood. I'm really intrigued by the prerunner type setups, ie long tube suspensions and such. Granted that is an expensive journey. Anyways any advice of push in the right direction of parts and other stuff I should invest in down the road to make this vehicle more capable will help alot.
Thank you for your time. I look forward to being part of this forum.

Warm and savory pork pies
(Read article summary)Try this tasty pastry recipe for a different sort of dinner. Serve a slice of pork pie it with a crisp salad, and add some fresh fruit for dessert for a delightful meal.
The Rowdy Chowgirl
These pork pies may redefine savory for all time. They are rich and meaty with enough gorgeous crust to make the filling even more of a pleasure to eat.
They taste of cozy evenings around the TV, but also of a chill foggy morning wrapped in damp wool, with cold hands warmed by hot pie, and of a brisk spring afternoon spent at a sidewalk cafe in a new city, slowly enjoying a crisp salad and a wedge of pork pie while watching the world stroll by.
Make these pork pies if you dare … if you are the sort who can grind your own meat with ruthless cold, fat-slicked hands, filling the air with the tang of blood and minerals, and then turn around and apply the light magical touch of a baker to producing a pie crust that is substantial enough to cradle that meat securely, while still being as flaky and delicately crisp as a croissant.
And if you do dare, I hope you invite me over.
Pork Pies
Slightly adapted from Carnivore by Mark Symon
8 ounces slab bacon, cut into medium dice
2 pounds ground pork
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup chopped celery
2 cups chopped red onions
6 garlic cloves, chopped
1 pound russet potatoes, peeled and cut into large dice
1⁄2 cup chopped celery leaves
1⁄2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh savory

Apparently this happened back on the 6th of june. I have never seen it before though.
[edited by: Soze at 4:07 am (utc) on July 14, 2006]
Just thinking that something like that is a bit dangerous. Most searchers don't know how to search very well. The ad may be right on target but since the searcher did not search correctly, of course it would be of no use. Or if the price was more than they were looking to pay, then it is not useful to them.
There are alot of things in the world that are not useful to me, but that does not mean that they are not useful.
Well, I guess that is easier than just filing a spam report on all your competing sites (if you could manage to be served the survey link on demand). Both actions are likely to boot you little, of course, since Google will use data mining to separate the random cranks from an actual groundswell of dissatisfaction.
Was this ad helpful to you?
That was funny.
One thought: Google Webmaster Guidelines discourage you from messing with the back button, and they do this?
I read the OP to mean that they had clicked their back button, not that it was automatic or against their will in any way.
As for blaming it on the user searching, that is not really an issue because google is trying to judge the usefulness of the overall experience of the visitor. If they don't know how to search properly that is still part of the experience and does not invalidate the question.
I guess if Google can get enough data then they will have a pretty good gauge on how to value a website. The cream will rise and spammy websites will die.
The only people that are going to be clicking the back button are those that are unsatisfied, because they need to find something else on the SERP page. Since they are the only ones that are likely qualified to answer the question at hand, it stands to reason that the maority of the feedback will be negative, no?
Maybe, but if user feedback is more negative for some advertisers than for others, isn't that useful data to have?
Yes .. BUT, you probably don't have to engage users to obtain that kind of information. Having a way to determine the click-back ratio (CBR... the % of people that click the browser back button) would probably suffice. Is CBR already a term? - if not I want credit for coining it - he he!
Obviously there are some obstacles to overcome by using something like that, such as browser cache, but all things considered, the error margin would be proportional and thus, sufficient in determining the relative quality of an ad without having to engage the user.
I am wondering:
a) What change in Global average CTR will be noticed by having such a call to action below an ad (ie. will more people click on it to rate it)?
b) In what ways are it susceptible to fraud (competitors fraudulently giving negative ratings)?
c) Contingent on (b), in what ways will Google use the feedback in order to determine which ads are shown?
This is a case of the second. Sure, 5% manipulated data could seriously affect your site if that was the only data source used. But you are unlikely to be in the erroneous 5% for more than one or two measures, bringing you right up into the safe level.
The more data sources used the better!

Social Security, Medicare, Budget Deficits
March 29, 2005 | Posted by Staff under Progress Report, The Progress Report |
Bush Administration Mixed Up, Confused on Priorities
In the midst of a record-breaking budget deficit in 2005, why do Republicans care only about a deficit forecast for the year 2041? And why do politicians overlook Medicare?
Here is a news update from Taxpayers for Common Sense. TCS is the best organization that monitors excessive government spending, corruption and corporate welfare.
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Social Security 'Reform'
Last week, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Secretary of Labor, and the Secretary of the Treasury used their position as Social Security trustees to push the issue of overhauling social security by creating private accounts at the annual trustees report release. But while all the press attention went to Social Security, the real elephant in the room went unnoticed: Medicare, which provides medical insurance for the elderly, is surging towards insolvency, and it has yet to get the attention it deserves.
Yes, the trustees report predicted that the Social Security trust fund will start losing money in 2017, and that it will not be able to pay full benefits by 2041, both estimates that are one year prior to earlier estimates. But the reality is that we control all the variables in social security: inflow in the form of tax rate and amount of income subject to tax, and outflow in the form of the amount of benefits, the rate of benefit growth and when you can start receiving benefits. With Medicare, we only control the inflow, and the outflow is rising incredibly fast as overall costs of health care explode.
Simply put, Medicare goes bust sooner and more spectacularly than Social Security. In fact, Social Security solvency issues are just a tempest in a tea pot by comparison — a mere firecracker compared to the 4th of July fireworks extravaganza that will accompany the eventual bankruptcy of Medicare.
Perhaps that is why the two independent trustees, one Democrat and one Republican, stayed away from the political release of the trustees report. Instead of reading from the Administrations script, they wrote a separate letter commenting on the state of Medicare. The report by this pair of bipartisan public trustees drew a dire picture of the state of Medicare, and emphasized that, Medicare's financial outlook has deteriorated dramatically over the past five years and is now much worse than Social Security's."
To be fair, last years prescription drug bill contained a few minor cost control mechanisms for Medicare. They included weak provisions to encourage private sector competition and expand access to health savings accounts. But in reality, these were only Band-Aids for a program that is in desperate need of a tourniquet
The fiscal realities of the Medicare trust fund are sobering: the Hospital Insurance trust fund will run dry by 2020, and by 2024, Medicare will pass Social Security in total spending. The trustees found that Medicares cost as a percentage of GDP will grow from 2.6% now to 13.6% by 2079.
Remember, a huge amount of Medicare isnt even paid for by the trust fund or the payroll taxes we all pay. The entire prescription drug plan, projected to cost more than $700 billion over 10 years, comes directly out of the US treasury. That giant sucking sound you hear is Medicare vacuuming up tax dollars.
While Capitol Hill argues about Social Security, Medicare has once again captured the distinction of being our most imperiled entitlement program. If politicians are seriously committed to Americas seniors, they need to start finding solutions for Medicares imminent collapse. If they dont, we may find ourselves looking back on this Social Security crisis fondly.

I think the cost of perscription drug should have a cap placed on them. The drug companies are out of control,as a example the cost of Prevacid 30mg for 100 tabs is $44.77,the cost of the ingrediants is$1.01, that is a 34,136% mark up. How about Tenormin 50mg, $104.47 for 100 tabs,the cost of the ingrediants $0.13, that amounts to a astounding mark up of 80,362%.
Medicare be funded through Social Security by dropping the Social security Tax and adding approximately 5% to Federal Income tax. This 5% would be across the board, no exceptions and no limit.
