Gift Boat--Worth it?
I (and my husband) have recently become intrigued with the idea of cruising. I''ve gotten some great advice here, which I plan to follow--take lessons, crew, try short trips, read, etc. However, I am in a unique situation when it comes to acquiring a boat.
My brother (a commercial fisherman for many years in Alaska and all around boat guy) has offered to give me his 27'' sailboat if I retrieve it from (dry) storage in Homer, AK. (His offer probably doesn''t reflect badly on the boat--he''s off in Nicaragua and can''t be bothered to retrieve the boat or pay the $600 storage fee-it''s sort of his m.o.).
I have nearly no details on the boat itself, other than it''s seaworthy (which for my brother probably means it needs at least cosmetic work and no doubt an equipment upgrade). My mother has been aboard and only says it seems safe, but is small.
Does anyone know the ballpark cost to have it transported from Alaska here to the San Francisco Bay Area? Is there a ''best'' way to get it down here?
Is this deal even worth it? I expect to put a considerable amount of money into the boat (as well as actually acquire the skills I need to sail it!) before taking off. I''m just wondering if the money I''d save on buying a boat makes whatever repairs I would have to make worth it. My brother is a mechanic, so I expect everything is in good working order, but he''s somewhat cavalier about things like comfort.
I''m not sure what else to ask advice about, but any other tips would be appreciated!
Thanks Heather

Hi Guys,
After a few months of hard development we are glad to announce that the Open Beta version of Brush Master is already online! Just click this link to play the Beta on your Web Browser! Any feedbacks will be really appreciated! Brush Master is a racing game full of Painting, Mayhem and Tactics. Avoiding the classic Get-First-To-The-Line type of racing game. Brush Master features an open racing battle where tactics and skills probe to be your allies to win the game by covering most of the field with your colors by the time the clock runs off. It makes you fight BIG Bosses and Teams of very small but lightning-fast Paint Rollers that join to beat you on the campaign mode. 💩 Its a crazy! It's fun! It's a highly addictive painting game that challenge your creativity thinking to produce an incredible game experience.

Best of all: Its now in an Open Beta where you can try the game directly on your browser before it hits the stores.

Hey Guys!
We just received an awesome review from Gamezebo: "In perhaps the first mobile game to combine racing with painting, Brush Master by Inter-illusion Games takes competitive painting to an amazing new level. With tons of colors, depth, and even colossal boss fights, this one is sure to leave your smock splattered with all sorts of fun. The goal of each stage is simple: have the majority of the blank paper canvas covered in your color when the timer is up. Of course, things become much more hectic when you throw in multiple players all trying to do the same thing at once." http://www.gamezebo.com/games/brush-master/preview Thx Joe! BTW, remember that we are still in the open beta, if you try the game and have any suggestions for us, it will help us a lot! Try the game: http://www.inter-illusion.com/games/...sh-master-beta |

Mowbray: We can still catch Gers
Despite being frustrated at dropping two points at Parkhead, Mowbray has not given up hope of catching their rivals, who are seven points ahead. Mowbray told Sky Sports 3: "We played on the front foot. We pushed them back. I think we felt we had done enough to come away with three points." He was frustrated, however, after conceding an equaliser less than three minutes after taking the lead. Scott McDonald came off the bench to open the scoring with a 79th-minute header. Lee McCulloch headed in Steven Davis' corner two minutes later. Mowbray said his side were aware of the danger posed by Rangers at set pieces and he was "disappointed" that the equaliser came from a corner. Asked if Celtic could still catch Rangers, Mowbray said: "Undoubtedly. It's less than a task than they had last year." Rangers boss Walter Smith accepted that his side was lucky to come away with a point. He said: "We were very fortunate to get a draw. Celtic started the better side." Smith said Rangers had "got away" with a point after not offering an attacking threat. He added: "Celtic played very well. It was a tough afternoon for a lot of our boys. "I felt the second half we did a little bit better. We are delighted to have got a point from a game we should not have. We were not with the pace of the game at all."

Looking for versatile players who main one spot but can switch when needed to a second or even a third spot. let me know if you are looking for a 3's or 5's team or both. my 5's team is going to be highly competitive looking to go gold at the least and platinum is my true goal The threes team is going to be a more fun and casual team but still when playing is going to be very competitive i just mean casual and fun as in schedule same with this team as in the fives looking to go at least gold if not platinum. when posting or messaging me post your elo, positions, and top 3 champs in each spot |
Hi there, I am looking for both a 3's and a 5's team so long as they can play pretty often.
I can play all roles, and own all champions, but I prefer in order of preference ... Jungle, Mid, Top, ADC, Support. I don't mind playing any role though like I said. I am around 1250 elo solo que , but seem to get trolled pretty often. My ratios are very high. Eve mid = 9.3 kills , 3.6 deaths, 8.3 assists Sejuani Jungle = 5.3 kills , 2 deaths , 16.8 assists Overall Avg playing everything = 5.7 kills, 4.2 deaths, 10.0 assists Top 3 mid - Eve , Twistedfate, Veigar Top 3 jungle - Sejuani , Hecarim , Diana/Cho Top 3 top - Jayce, Singed, Cho'gath Top 3 adc - Ezreal ( I almost never play adc, and if I do its pretty much exclusively ez) top 3 support - Alistar , Sona, Zilean Those are my two mains, and feel free to look me up on Lolking. http://www.lolking.net/summoner/na/2...1#ranked-stats As you can see I always play well, just get trolled by horrible players. I have 2400 rating exp on WoW, had the top pvp mage on my rift server , so not having high elo in this game pisses me off lol! I can use any chat programs ... skype etc PM me and let me know! |
addded you ill msg you when you accept.
Looking for more 3's then 5's but willing to do both and train as needed. I own 97 champs. I have more fun with 3's then I do 5's but I roll both as friends want, otherwise, I generally just solo 3's 3's Main champs: Master Yi, Gangplank, Diana, are my current favs. But can run others and adapt fairly well. 5's, I prefer to Jungle, Top, Mid, ADC, Support in that order, I can do all, but I do best with those in first preference but willing to get better all around. My Elo sucks, only bronze last season, and not doing well this, alot of trolls out there, heh. Can use any chat program. IGN: Ðév Skype: Devxism |
Im interested in joining the 5v5 team. I can play any role but I would prefer AD Carry or Tank. My elo is 1370 right now .
I'm interested in both the 3v3 team and the 5v5 team.
Primary Role: Solo top 1st: Vi 2nd:Riven 3rd:Irelia Secondary Role: Ap Mid Katarina Ryze Ahri I just started back in S2 right before Graves was released. Working on improving my skills in mastering top lane and other roles such as adc and jungle. My weakest point would be Support but I know with some work and a champion I can relate to I can get support under my belt. Didn't do much rank play though, tried to stay away from it until I felt ready. IGN: MaytrOleo |
I am around 1250 elo solo que , 1325 is my high. Not doing hot since coming back from a week long trip in Florida!!!!! Working on getting back up, my ranked 5's team high 1350 aswell and they played without my bringing down to 1250 ;( I do better with teams I grind practice with and could do the same for you, now for the info you want.

Well, this has been sliced, diced, and thrashed to death in the last news cycle. Even Chris "da wiener" Matthews got a chance to look good, and he didn't have to use his signature nervous laugh… "aaharrraugh, aaharrraugh, aaharrraugh…"
One distinction needs to be drawn and I don't see anybody doing it. I understand WHY nobody wants to clarify this. It's not politically expedient.
However, it needs to be pointed out that Hamas is the legally elected government of the Palestinians who have been pushed onto the West Bank. The fact is that Israel has not recognized Hamas and Hamas has not recognized Israel. What I would like to see clarified is under what circumstances does this legally elected government get a seat at the table? Does anyone think that the solution to the Palestinian/Israeli conflict will happen without negotiating with Hamas? If you do, then you live in a neocon fantasy world where might makes right and you are either with the Jews or you're against them.
Making this point is way beyond the attention span of the American voter, particularly the flag-waving ignoramus who has been brainwashed and fear-mongered to a high state of paranoia by the Bush Administration lie factory. That's why you won't hear Obama talk about it… it's not politically feasible to try to explain that position to the electorate. But dammit, it needs to be addressed or we're in for another 60 years of terrorism and war in the region and beyond.

Recipe Rescue: Fiery Chicken Balls!
What a handy goodie these awesome balls are. Read, Make and Enjoy... let's get cooking!
What a handy goodie these awesome balls are. Read, Make and Enjoy... let's get cooking!
There is nothing more sexy than raw cooking. It's invigorating and explosive.
Yes Please! Oh wait, was there a question?
Chicken is a versatile and healthy protein. I get asked a lot for ideas on how to put a little more flavor into chicken; chicken can be dull.
Open a bag of Doritos and crack open a can of root beer, planning done! Okay, now for the girls...
I have been researching recipes and trying new things on my family to come up with some kick butt recipes that are going to make you an even greater star in the kitchen. Not only is the new series of recipes going to make you a culinary genius, its going to save time and money.
What better way to count down the time to Christmas than with food? Savory food, sweet food... dishes on the side and dishes to sink your teeth in till the new year. The best way to share time and stories with friends and family is over a good plate of food and the twelve days of Christmas are full of great dishes.
In the tradition of sharing my favorite recipes, here is one of my favorite comfy foods for a 'gloomy' cool day. My grandmother used to make a version of this recipe. She was a gourmet, a perfectionist in her cooking. Through the years I have taken her love for food and cooking and simplified many of her recipes.
Don't be afraid of spice, dive in with both feet. And don't let the long list of spice ingredients deter you, I have a secret.
I love to cook! There is no question about it. Cooking for me is like meditation. I am at one with the kitchen, a 'no interrupt zone'. Dinner with the family is a time to connect with the kids and my James, cooking dinner is a time to connect with myself. And when the food turns out delicious and disappears from their plates, well that's the best thing ever. This is why I share these recipes with you, to hopefully bring you a moment of sanity AND oooh's and ahhh's at the dinner table.
One of the biggest stress factors in a person's day to day life is dinner. Really, are you stressing over what to do with that pound of hamburger or package of chicken?

I've been struggling with getting my One S-off for a few days now, I've searched the forums but there is so much information that it's next to impossible to wade through it and find what you are looking for.
Here is what I did:
I got the HTCDEV unlock and ran it, I installed CWM and rooted it. I kept getting the Root access not available error on both RumRunner and FireWater.
I flashed CM11 thinking it might fix it, Nothing.
This morning I just started looking and I found the solution.
Go to SuperUser app and select Settings-->SuperUser Access --> Apps and ADB.
Then follow the steps for either Firewater or RumRunner and It should solve your problem.

Top Buy newly launches Innokin AIO PCC Kit
Electronic cigarette store Top Buy newly launches Innokin AIO PCC Kit.
(PRWEB) July 30, 2012
Electronic cigarette store Top Buy newly launches Innokin AIO PCC Kit.
Innokin Noble is a mini-style e cigarette which looks like a traditional filter cigarette; It is one of the first e cigarettes that have gained great popularity among e smokers.
Noble electronic cigarette has a length of 106mm, which is nearly the length of an analogue. With its cartridge covered with yellow paster and battery with white, Noble e cigarette looks just like a real one—users just can´t tell the difference between the two.
Many new e smokers like noble e cigarettes. They like the feeling when they are vaping.
However, noble has its own disadvantage, the battery. As one of the first generation ecigs, noble is equipped with a 190mah battery that lasts for about 240 puffs. For those heavy smokers, 240puffs are not what not enough. Besides, customers hate charging the battery frequently.
That´s why Top Buy carries Innokin AIO noble e cigarettes.
The biggest difference between noble and AIO noble is that the latter is equipped with a 1020mah battery, which makes the AIO a personal charging case. The AIO PCC makes the Noble e cigarette always ready for use. Once placed in the AIO, the e cigarette gets charged ( on condition that the AIO is not power off).
Also, AIO can be the emergent power supply for cell phones (iPhone, iPod, Samsung, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, etc.), music players, etc. The universal adapter wheel that comes with the kit makes it possible for D/C out.
Other advantages of AIO noble e cigarette are:
—Elegant looking. The size of AIO pack is just right and elegant.
—Easy to carry and convenient to use.
—Compatibility. The battery and cartridge are not connected by threads, but by friction, which allows e smokers to carry different cartridges and charge different batteries.
—Shiny colors: red, white, black, blue, silver, pink. Vapers can always find a right color.
In the next few days, Top Buy will add the iTaste VV to its product line.

Agudelo finally joins Stoke City
Stoke have announced the signing of United States international Juan Agudelo and loaned him immediately to FC Utrecht having failed to get a work permit for the striker.
The Potters completed a free transfer for the 21-year-old despite being denied a work permit in November and have decided to send him to the Eredivisie while they prepare a second application.
Agudelo, who left New England Revolution at the end of the MLS season, made his international bow as a 17-year-old and has earned 17 caps.
Stoke must wait four months from the date of the initial work permit application to make a second bid to bring Agudelo to England, but appear more likely to wait until the summer.
Chief executive Tony Scholes said: "We were surprised and bitterly disappointed when our application for a work permit was rejected by the appeals panel - as were many other people in the game.
"It's still our view that Juan is a great talent and is a player that Mark Hughes would like to join our squad. We have therefore decided that we are going to reapply for a work permit at the earliest opportunity.
"We have signed Juan but he cannot play in this country, so we're loaning him out to Utrecht to allow him to not only develop his experience of playing in Europe but also to stay match sharp.
"Hopefully we will be successful with our second work permit application and Juan will be able to join Mark's squad in advance of next season."
The club's pursuit of Agudelo comes with manager Mark Hughes concerned about a lack of out-and-out strikers at the Britannia Stadium.
Established pair Peter Crouch and Kenwyne Jones have already been joined by Manchester City loanee John Guidetti, who was signed last week until the end of the season.

Pulju Sentenced To Nearly 22 Years In Prison In Murder Of His Mother
Chad Matthew Pulju was sentenced to nearly 22 years in prison on Friday after pleading guilty to second degree murder in the stabbing death of his mother, Geraldine Delores Bennet.
St. Cloud Police were called to the 2700 block of Atwood Drive just after midnight on August 23, 2012 after reports of two people arguing. According to the report, when police arrived they found Bennet lying on the floor covered in blood with threatening injuries apparently from an edged weapon.
Bennet was transported to St. Cloud Hospital where she was pronounced dead around 2 a.m. According to an autopsy of Bennet, the 68-year-old had forty-seven stab wounds on her face, neck, and arm.
Pulju claims to have no recollection of the night's event, due to being in an alcohol induced blackout.

Orlando, FL (Sports Network) - DeMar DeRozan scored 11 of his career-high 26 points in the final quarter and Sonny Weems drained the tie-breaking three- pointer with 7.1 seconds left in the fourth quarter, helping Toronto to a 110-106 win over the Orlando Magic.
Andrea Bargnani had 27 points for the Raptors, who snapped a six-game skid. Weems tallied 14 points in Toronto's second win of the season.
Dwight Howard powered his way to a 25-point, eight-rebound night, but the Magic suffered their second straight loss, also falling at home to Utah on Wednesday. Mickael Pietrus went 8-of-11 from beyond the arc on the way to 24 points in defeat.
Pietrus drilled a three-pointer with 28.8 seconds left, just after teammate Rashard Lewis tapped out the offensive rebound beyond the top of the arc.
Weems, though, sank a long-distance shot from the left wing the next time down the floor. Pietrus then turned the ball over as the inbounds pass was stolen by Jose Calderon, who made two foul shots.
Pietrus made a three-ball with one second left for a 108-106 game, but DeRozan sealed the win at the foul line.
Jameer Nelson had 11 points of his 23 points in the opening quarter for the Magic, as they led 31-30 after 12 minutes. It was tight throughout the second and the teams went to the locker room tied at 59.
DeRozan's put-back layup had Toronto up 89-82 going into the fourth quarter.

"These are terrific. Good sturdy quality card,nice design and color. On the back of the card is plenty of room to write a note if you want to add something specific to the person/family. The arrived very quickly in a sturdy box so no damage to the cards."
"Fun & Funky design that is good for everyone in our family from the kids to the adults all year round. We'll be reordering. It would be absolutely perfect if it could be modified to say "A note from" or something like that so you aren't limited to sending as a thank you note, but not a big deal as we send mostly thank yous."
"The paper quality was outstanding and the artwork was exactly as pictured. I was very happy with my purchase. I also appreciate the free designer review."
"I ordered these thank you notes expecting them to arrive just a day or so before I needed them. They arrived a week earlier then planned. I am extremely pleased with the look and quality of these."
"This is a very nice card. The card stock is heavy, like other Tiny Prints cards. This particular piece is nice because it is relatively simple and leaves a lot of space to write the note."

By Cristina Ruiz. Museums, Issue 248, July-August 2013Published online: 02 August 2013
The Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney (AGNSW) has received A$10.8m ($9.9m) from the State government to finance the planning stages of a major expansion project, which would see the construction of a new building and double the size of the institution. The money will be used over the next two years for feasibility and engineering studies related to the use of land next to the gallery's existing 19th-century home, and to launch an international architectural competition.

"We are currently half the size of galleries in Canberra, Melbourne and Brisbane," says Michael Brand, the Australian-born director who joined the gallery last year, having spent five years leading the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. "We desperately need more space for temporary exhibitions and to show different art forms [such as video and film] and present different learning opportunities." The expansion project coincides with a major overhaul of the gallery's aims, which include forming new partnerships with museums in Australia and abroad, and catering to an increasingly global audience. The effort to transform the institution, both physically and conceptually, has been dubbed Sydney Modern, a name intended to be "forward-looking, bold and international", Brand says.The trustees' commitment to rethinking the gallery's future was a major reason for Brand's return to Australia, he says. "I was always keen to come back here and make some sort of contribution… their level of ambition really appealed to me." Brand says the 2008 gift to the gallery of 200 works of international contemporary art assembled over 50 years by the textile magnate John Kaldor also made the post "super-attractive". The donation, including works by Sol LeWitt, Jeff Koons, Donald Judd and Andreas Gursky, transformed the museum's holdings, giving it the best contemporary collection in the country. The installation of the Kaldor collection in a newly renovated suite of galleries "really showed there was no more space in the [existing] building". Without more space, "the trustees realised there could be no major steps in our future", Brand says. A new building, which Brand hopes will be completed by the gallery's 150th anniversary in 2021, would enable the gallery to host travelling shows, which currently stretch its resources to the limit. To make room for a show of Picassos on loan from the Musée National Picasso in Paris last year, the museum had to temporarily remove from display its 19th- and 20th-century Australian collections. But Brand is keen to stress that the new space would not just be used for blockbuster shows. There would be collection displays, including additional room for a "broader experience of Aboriginal art and culture" and works on loan from partner institutions, Brand says. He recently returned from a trip to China, where he signed a letter of intent for cultural collaboration with the Shaanxi History Museum in Xi'an."There's no way I can buy everything I want to have in the collection, but just because we can't buy art [from certain cultures], it doesn't mean we shouldn't be interested in them and that our public shouldn't see them. A once-in-a-decade blockbuster can't be the only way of putting those cultures in front of our viewers." There will be other partnerships in Asia, "broader links with the Islamic world" and more relationships with institutions in the US. Brand is talking to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Lacma) about collaborations, the first of which is a survey exhibition of American painting. It is due to open in Sydney in November and has been co-ordinated by Lacma with loans from major US museums.A new building is likely to cost "several hundred million dollars", but Brand says he is optimistic about fundraising. "I had a very good experience in the US, where they're real masters of this sort of activity; I have a good sense of how to do it, how to be realistic about it, what it takes to succeed."

Bravo, Mr. Brand. As an American who is lucky enough to visit the Gallery of NSW every couple of years, I applaud the improvements that have appeared under his new directorship. The liberation of contemporary indigenous art from the basement 'Yiribana' gallery and its integration within the rest of the collection - the pairing of Richard Long's "Stone Line" with the graphic songlines of Gloria Petyarre's "Awelye for the mountain desert lizard" series of canvases has resulted in an installation that is nothing less than sublime. The pairing of heroic Tiwi Pukamani (graveposts) collected by a previous pathbreaking director, Tony Tuckson, with Sidney Nolan's helmeted Ned Kelley portrait is equally inspired. Even the Gallery bookstore is better organized and more appealingly displayed. The Gallery expansion is much needed and could actually improve its site, now occupied by a huge, unsightly water tank - as long as the mistakes made in the new, unsightly MCA addition can be avoided.
7 Aug 13 21:49 CET
Why do all new museum directors come to their job with a hard hat for ambitious property development instead of ideas for expanding audiences? There is nothing in Dr Brand's vision which can't be done in the current gallery. The gallery does not need to be bigger, but it does need to invest in better education programs and initiatives to engage audiences across NSW. Last time I looked it was the Art Gallery of NSW but you wouldn't know it from the gallery's programs. Bad luck if you live in Broken Hill or Brewarrina. Dr Brand should spend some of the $10m on fixing the content of the gallery's website. Less than half the works in a relatively small collection are even photographed and most have just a bare description of the artist and title. Pathetic. But property development is more sexy than content development even for art museum directors.
5 Aug 13 16:35 CET
Brave words, Mr Brand. But I question the expansion of AGNSW to cover "Aboriginal art and culture". There is so much pressure today to present Indigenous art as 'contemporary', curators are denied any opportunity to add ethnographic explanation to artworks. What is needed is a separate National Indigenous Culture Institution to provide the background to 40,000 years of Aboriginal survival in Australia and to offer multi-media and performative ways into the complexity of a culture that we denied existing for the first 200 years of white history here. Then your visitors to Sydney Modern will arrive with the confidence to appreciate artworks that have daunted no less a figure than Turner Prize-winner, Grayson Perry, who admitted to lacking the connoisseurship to enjoy them in The Times.

Eric David Fingerhut is the President and CEO of Hillel: The Foundation for Jewish Campus Life.[2] Prior he served as the corporate Vice President of Education and STEM Learning business at Battelle Memorial Institute, Chancellor of the Ohio Board of a Regents and Ohio Senator.
Fingerhut was appointed Chancellor of the Ohio Board of Regents on March 14, 2007 by Governor Ted Strickland.[3] This position is a member of the Ohio Governor's Cabinet.[4] On February 22, 2011, he submitted his resignation to Gov. John Kasich, effective March 14, 2011, after serving four years of his five-year term. Chancellor Fingerhut earned a reputation as an innovative leader and ardent advocate of the value of higher education.[5] He left with high praise from the Ohio's newspapers. An editorial in the Columbus Dispatch declared, "[Eric Fingerhut's] diplomacy, energy, pragmatism and knowhow will be missed."[5]
Family life[edit]
Eric Fingerhut is married to Amy Fingerhut and has two sons, Sam and Charlie. His parents are Samuel and Alice Fingerhut. He has been an active member in the Jewish community serving as a teacher and President of his synagogue.
Early work and education[edit]
Fingerhut earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Northwestern University in 1981 and a law degree from Stanford University in 1984. He practiced law at Hahn Loeser & Parks LLP in Cleveland until becoming associate director of Cleveland Works, where he served in from 1987 to 1989. Fingerhut served as the campaign manager for then candidate for Cleveland Mayor Michael R. White and then became the director of his transition team.
Fingerhut served as an Ohio state senator from 1991 to 1993. In 1992, he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives from Ohio's 19th congressional district and began serving in 1993 (103rd Congress). In his re-election bid in 1994, however, Fingerhut was defeated by Lake County Prosecutor Steve LaTourette. After his defeat in Congress, Fingerhut easily won a seat again in the Ohio Senate, representing district 25. He served two full terms from 1999 through 2007, retiring due to term limits.
Support for Israel[edit]
While representing Ohio's 19th district in the 103rd Congress, Eric was the co-sponsor of four bills in support of Israel. Including:
• H.R. 1407 confronted a boycott of the State of Israel by aiming "To prohibit government-to-government and commercial arms sales to any country that is participating in or cooperating with the boycott of Israel by Arab countries."[6]
• H.R. 3646 unequivocally voiced its support for Israel seeking to "restrict sales and leases of defense articles and defense services to any country or international organization which as a matter of policy or practice is known to have sent letters to United States firms requesting compliance with, or soliciting information regarding compliance with, the secondary or tertiary Arab boycott."[7]
Tenure at Hillel International[edit]
Very quickly after beginning his tenure as CEO of Hillel International, the organization experienced a major controversy. The Hillel chapter at Swarthmore College declared itself an "Open Hillel," choosing to welcome all guest speakers and student organizations, whether or not they support Zionism.[8] Fingerhut responded, stating "Let me be very clear – "anti-Zionists" will not be permitted to speak using the Hillel name or under the Hillel roof, under any circumstances."[9] This controversy is widely seen as a key part of a broad conversation in the American Jewish community regarding whether or not Zionism is, or should be, a consensus issue.

Company's philosophy is to listen to customers. With your input and our efforts we have a winning combination. We look forward to continuing development of instrumentation to benefit the field of astronomy and science education.
SBIG (Santa Barbara Instrument Group) has brought together a group of unique individuals, each with years of experience in his or her particular discipline. People with this much expertise can accomplish a great deal when they share a common goal. The goal of SBIG is to design and manufacture the best astronomical instrumentation in the world, professional quality equipment at a price an amateur can afford.
SBIG's company's philosophy is to listen to their customers. With your input and our efforts, they have a winning combination. SBIG's is looking forward to continuing development of instrumentation to benefit the field of astronomy and scientific imaging.
In most high technology markets there are "pioneers", companies who have the technology and dedication to influence the direction of an entire industry. In the past 10 years SBIG has been that pioneer in the electronic imaging industry. SBIG has a reputation for outstanding quality products. They were the first company to introduce CCD autoguiding with the Model ST-4, Track and Accumulate (TRACCUM) with the Model ST-6, and dual CCD self-guiding with the Models ST-7 and ST-8. SBIG pioneered tricolor imaging with both hardware and software and are pushing the technology forward again with the introduction of Adaptive Optics and a stand-alone video camera and autoguider. Along the way they were granted two U.S. Patents, one for Track and Accumulate and the other for Self-Guiding.
Of more significance to customers reading this catalog for the first time is that SBIG has brought back to life the long forgotten practice of offering quality "technical support". The company philosophy, as published in the ads is based on ".. .basic values, good products, strong technical support and honesty". They can help you take photographic quality CCD images, measure the surface brightness of a spiral galaxy, image a comet, or obtain high resolution densitometry images of x-ray plates. They can help you obtain long, uninterrupted autoguided astrophotographs. As stated in SBIG's ads, "We understand how our products work and we want you to consider us a part of your technical staff". If you want to deal with a company that understands CCD imaging and will take the time to help you, contact SBIG.
The introduction of Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) has dramatically changed the methods astronomers use to view objects. The remarkable sensitivity and dynamic range of CCDs has made them the detector of choice. A CCD is an array of photosites (pixels) on a silicon substrate. The pixels are arranged in rows and columns. Light falling on the CCD is recorded as an electrical signal by converting the photons to electrons. The sensitivity of a CCD is ten times faster than the fastest films and is linear in response (which films are not). The number of photons converted to electrons, referred to as Quantum Efficiency, is in the order of 50%. These advantages as well as the digital nature of the data make CCD devices ideal for astronomical imaging.

WebRTC Chat On Skyway (Graphic: Business Wire)
NTT Communications Corporation (NTT Com), the ICT solutions and international communications business within the NTT (NYSE: NTT) Group, announced today the immediate start of a free trial for its " WebRTC Chat on Skyway" web application, which uses WebRTC (Web Real-Time Communications) technologies for browser-to-browser communication between devices in real time, the first such application in Japan. The trial is being conducted at NTT Com's web application platform, SkyWay ( https://chat.skyway.io/"room_name").
WebRTC is a breakthrough technology that enables real-time point-to-point (P2P) communication for voice, video and data (ex. file) sharing between browsers of devices including PCs and smartphones. Since web servers are bypassed, the technology enables highly private communication for web services. It also helps to reduce operational costs for application and service developers and providers by minimizing server resources. Existing P2P communication requires a dedicated application in each device, but WebRTC only uses conventional browsers, so service development costs are relatively low. WebRTC is expected to be used widely in future applications.
Features of WebRTC Chat on SkyWay
- Private, safe and secureWebRTC Chat's encrypted, server-free communication realizes high privacy and security. With respect to concerns that P2P services could be used for illegal data transfers, WebRTC technology stores the beginning and end of connection logs, so communication can be traced if necessary. NTT Com's trial will test this feature by compiling and managing communication logs.
- Easy, intuitive communication requires no membership/registrationWhereas existing video chat services with dedicated applications usually require user registration, NTT Com's WebRTC Chat can be used simply by accessing a dedicated website. Easy-to-understand images and sound effects strengthen the highly intuitive user experience of WebRTC Chat.
- Highly reliable WebRTC platformConsidering that future WebRTC services will use redundant server systems and offer flexible expandability, the trial will be used to confirm system reliability and additional features that NTT Com is considering adding to SkyWay's WebRTC platform.
SkyWay Platform and HTML5 Initiatives
NTT Com developed the SkyWay platform to deploy WebRTC technologies that the company has been offering for free since December 2013. The source code library is open and available at GitHub, a software development support service. Both SkyWay and WebRTC technologies use HTML5, the newest version of the standard markup language used for the Internet. NTT Com, a leading advocate of HTML5 adoption, launched the HTML5 Lab in July 2013 and also HTML5 Experts.jp, a site that provides support to the HTML5 engineering community. About NTT Communications Corporation NTT Communications provides consultancy, architecture, security and cloud services to optimize the information and communications technology (ICT) environments of enterprises. These offerings are backed by the company's worldwide infrastructure, including leading global tier-1 IP network, Arcstar Universal One™ VPN network reaching 196 countries/regions, and over 150 secure data centers.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

How accurate is Wikipedia's content?
It's not easy being Wikipedia, a free web encyclopedia created and edited by anonymous contributors. Just ask founder Jimmy Wales, who has seen his creation come under fire in just a few short months as the site fends off vandalism and charges of inaccurate entries. "Wikipedia has always been in a state of change," says Wales, in defense of his product.
That's putting it mildly.
On November 29, journalist John Seigenthaler, Sr., once a member of Robert Kennedy's staff, penned an op-ed piece in USA Today noting that an article on Wikipedia had incorrectly linked him to the assassination of Robert Kennedy and John F Kennedy. The article, which stayed on the site for four months, stated that "John Seigenthaler, Sr. was the assistant to Attorney General Robert Kennedy in the early 1960s.
For a brief time, he was thought to have been directly involved in the Kennedy assassinations of both John and his brother Bobby. Nothing was ever proven." Wikipedia eventually deleted the inaccurate information, and now even contains an entry entitled, "John Seigenthaler, Sr. Wikipedia biography controversy", explaining the history of its own error.
And last month, former MTV VJ and podcasting pioneer Adam Curry was accused of editing out Wikipedia's references to Kevin Marks, another early podcasting luminary. In a December 2 blog entry, Curry owned up to the switch and apologised.
Today, popular or potentially controversial Wikipedia entries, such as one on George W Bush, greet readers with the following: "In response to recent vandalism, editing of this page by new or anonymous users has been temporarily disabled. Please discuss possible changes or request unprotection."

Plymouth council pays £670,000 for money-saving advice
Posted: March 17, 2014
|By KEITH ROSSITER Political Reporter @krossiter
THE city council has paid almost £670,000 – to find out how to save money.
Plymouth City Council commissioned the high-profile firm of accountants, Ernst and Young, to help it to plug the holes in its budget.
The payment – which totalled £669,000 – was condemned as "astonishing" by Conservative MP Gary Streeter.
But council chief executive Tracey Lee said: "We have to spend money to save money."
Ernst and Young was brought in after Government funding was slashed and the council's deficit threatened to grow out of control.
Consultants, working with senior officers and councillors, concluded that in a "worst case scenario" the deficit could hit £75.2million over three years.
But in a 46-page document titled "Delivering the co-operative vision: The plan for transformation to achieve your ambition of becoming a 'Brilliant Co-operative Council'," Ernst and Young concludes that it can be cut to £64.5million, as reported in The Herald.
And the consultants propose a transformation programme which they say will cut the deficit to £5.7million.
The report goes on to analyse how the council can deal with the remaining gap between income and what it is obliged to spend on providing services.
The council said last night that it had paid Ernst and Young £250,000 for the initial work and another £419,000 to come up with a transformation blueprint and business case, making a total of £669,000.
Gary Streeter, Conservative MP for South West Devon, said: "I find it an astonishing amount to pay to a management consultancy which has helped deliver a piece of Labour ideology – delivering a co-operative council.
"The council has some serious questions to answer from residents who are facing an increase in their council tax on why they spent this much.
"We are paying senior officers a great deal of money. They work extremely hard for it, and I accept that sometimes it's necessary to go outside of the organisation, but I wouldn't expect a piece of work like this to cost anything near that much.
"I have noticed in recent months that they are becoming more ideological, and that troubles me."
Cllr Ian Bowyer, leader of the Conservative group on the council, said: "My gripe all along has been that they haven't been open, transparent and fair."
He said it was not possible to understand whether the budget was sound without seeing the business cases for the transformation programme.
Dia Chakravarty, political director at the TaxPayers' Alliance, said: "Taxpayers will be rightly outraged that the council has wasted their money on costly consultants to write a report on how to do its own job.
"The first lesson for the council towards becoming 'Brilliant' should be getting its priorities right and not wasting taxpayers' money on expensive external consultants."
Tracey Lee, the council's chief executive, defended the spending.
"We believe this is one of the most ambitious transformation programmes of its type in the country," she said.
"It is essential that we move quickly in order to deliver the savings we have to as the alternatives are almost unthinkable.
"It would be impossible to deliver this scale of change as part of our day-to-day business.
"We need extra capacity and skills over the three years of the programme and in the short term this includes bringing in external expertise and capacity in a similar way to many other councils and public sector organisations around the country undergoing major change.
"A key part of the programme is providing council staff with the skills to work in new ways. An element of the costs of the programme is investing in our staff to reduce the need for external support.
"We have to spend money in order to save money and our investment in the transformation programme will deliver nearly £40million of net savings over three years."
What £669,000 could have paid for
8,725 potholes
17 trainee teachers
61,000 hours of domiciliary care work

WW, if your enemy is below 50% health you know where there at and you can also chase them down with no escape. Only problem is it has no active like some passives do, I think it would make a great ability.

I don't think Morde's or Kennen's should count, cause their passive IS the champion that doesn't mean it's the best passive unless the champ is extremely OP because of it(if that's the case it shouldn't count). For me there are 3 kinds of passives: 1) Passives that define the champ's playstyle.(Kennen's, Olaf's, Tryndamere's, Twitch's, Udyr's, etc.) 2) Passives that greatly help the champ fulfill it's role.(Tristana's, Akali's, Poppy's, Warwick's, etc.) 3)Passives that just help out a bit, whether it's greatly or slightly.(Garen's, Blitzcrank's, Viegar's , Alistar's, etc.) Karthus' is a great counter against focus fire, it could be. How about Galio's passive? I think it's pretty good. And you gotta love Blitz's passive. Garen's? VLAD'S?!
I like Malphite's passive... It's very easy to harass with it, and later on, tank everything. Free 10% health? Yes please!
