As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Need nutrition therapy? Here's what to expect
What is nutrition support? — Sometimes patients are unable to eat, or are unable to absorb nutrients from their food. CarePro Home Infusion can help! Bryce Jackman, Director of Pharmacy for CarePro Home Infusion, explains how we help patients with nutrition support. View Full Transcript.
At CarePro Home Care, we want to simplify your nutrition therapy. Whether you need enteral or parental nutrition, you don't have to shop around for a care coordinator, nurse and pharmacist. We have all those professionals right here, working together for you.
Before you leave the hospital - We'll coordinate your care plan with hospital staff, determine your insurance coverage for home care and contact your insurance provider for authorization. If time allows, we'll demonstrate your new equipment and teach you and/or a family member how to use it. CarePro pharmacists will work closely with your doctor to confirm all orders, lab work and the proper formulation for your enteral (tube feeding) or parenteral nutrition.
When you get home - Many of our patients handle their own feedings (with our help, of course). Your home care nurse will teach you about your therapy in as many home sessions as you wish. We want you or your family member comfortable with preparing the formula and using the equipment. We'll also show you how track your temperature and weight and how to spot potential complications. We'll check in with you when your supplies run low. Not sure of something? Call us at 1-800-755-6997, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Your continued care - We're there for you as long as you need us. Many of our patients have been using our enteral and parenteral nutrition services for more than 10 years. Others return to us if they have a recurring need.
Order enteral (tube feeding) supplies
Parenteral (PN) services for small hospitals
We not only provide parenteral (PN) nutrition support services for patients in their home, but CarePro Home Infusion also supports pharmacies in community hospitals throughout Iowa. With our help, your patients will be able to stay in their own communities close to family and friends. Other benefits to partnering with CarePro Home Care:
- We help you maintain your hospital census.
- We stock PN and TPN products, saving your pharmacy inventory space.
- We give you access to our experienced, board-certified nutrition support pharmacists and nurses.
- We'll consult with you and your physicians on labs and formula.
- We'll keep your patients close to home.
- We enhance patient clinical outcomes.
- We assist in discharge planning from hospital to home.
- We provide expert Medicare Part B advice to determine eligibility for home care coverage.
We can connect your hospital to the professional services you need. Contact us to find out how.

Important IssueHey everyone!I just split up with my husband. Today was the day I took a clean sweep and got rid of all the things that remained from our past. It is strange and sad to be aware of my current situation. But it is time to start a new life.Why I tell you all this? Not to get compassion from you......but because shit happens.To everyone. What I wanna let you know is that if you have to go through a difficult situation...don't stop remembering the good things which are worth living for. Start a clean sweep in YOUR life too!!!! The things that help me are...1. My daughter. I love her dearly. She is the most important thing in my life!2. My art. My passion to draw and my only income for us to survive. 3. The knowledge that even if life is cruel and unfair sometimes it is up to me to change it to something good.This little video touched my heart and you should have a look on it. Let's make the world a better place with small things we can change!https://www.youtube.com/wat

Compelled by Fear or Love?"There is no fear in love; perfect love casts out fear. So then, love has not been made perfect in anyone who is afraid, because fear has to do with punishment." 1 John 4:18."But Jesus came and touched them. He said, "Get up. Don't be afraid." Matthew 17:7Motivation by fear of punishment = immaturity.Picture this; a three year old and his father are standing by a busy road. The parent says to the child "I want you to look both ways before we cross the street. I also want you to hold my hand." At this, the three year old dashes across the street by himself without looking both ways.The father follows and finally catches up to the child. In this situation, a lot of parents would say and do something like this; "I told you not to run into the street like that. But you did, so now I am going to spank you."Why would the parent do something like this? Why not just explain to the child about his anatomy? Why not explain how all of his internal organs work and function together, and how i
-Rant- 'So-Called Spriters'Offended by what you see here? I don't care!:faq157::faq306:Read those and THEN come bitch to me! I'm really sick of people who claim to be spriters and only have pixel work that's just spliced or mashed up from an existing sprite. They recolour perfectly beautiful sprites without care it seems. A lot of them are even horrible lazy about it, and it's so painfully obvious where and how the pieces were thrown together. Some of us here actually take time and care to make things from scratch, maybe only referencing sizes or colouring styles if needed. It's not even hard after you try it a few times. It's not going to be perfect the first time, deal with it. Hardly anything is perfect on the first go. I see so many people who have galleries filled with recolours and splices of Pokemon to make new ones, and it baffles me. How original can one get by splicing existing faces and other body parts? If you want a new Pokemon, one that's unrelated to the existing ones, why not ju

Incredible. I'm not familiar with Ms. Lopez, but she seems to be living in some kind of religious conservative echo chamber. She forgets that the Schiavo case was fundamental to the Republicans losing the House in '06, not as an independent issue, but as a prime example of religious conservative overreach. Bill Frist's diagnosis-by-video is still roundly mocked, even if Frist himself is but a memory.
KATHERINE JEAN LOPEZ, writing at National Review, believes that John McCain should hammer on Barack Obama's statement last night that he regrets not having fought to stop Congress from intervening in the case of Terri Schiavo. Schiavo, who had long lain in a "persistent vegetative state", became a cause célèbre for the pro-life movement due to a legal battle between her parents and husband over whether her feeding tube should be removed—which it ultimately was, despite action by Congress to allow federal review of her case. Before Mr McCain follows Ms Lopez's advice, however, he may wish to review these numbers.

11 San Diego St. Aztecs (16-5)
@UNLV Runnin' Rebels (17-5)
Tuesday, February 03
Thomas & Mack Center
Attendance: None
11 San Diego St.
Las Vegas, NV (Sports Network) - Kyle Spain scored eight of his 17 points in overtime, as the San Diego State Aztecs defeated the UNLV Runnin' Rebels, 68-66, in a Mountain West Conference battle at the Thomas & Mack Center.
Billy White added 12 points and seven rebounds for SDSU (16-5, 6-2 MWC), while Lorrenzo Wade also posted 12 points. D. J. Gay also got involved, registering 10 points in the victory.
Wink Adams netted 16 points for UNLV (17-5, 5-3), while Rene Rougeau and Oscar Bellfield chipped in with 11 points apiece in the losing effort.
The Aztecs limited UNLV to a mere 28.0 percent shooting effort in the first half and went into the break with a 30-28 advantage.
The game went back and forth in the second half, and even though SDSU made 13- of-18 attempts from the foul line, the Runnin' Rebels were able to force the game into overtime tied at 59-59.
In the extra session UNLV ran cold, netting just 28.6 percent of its attempts from the field, leaving the door open for Spain's tremendous OT performance.
The Aztecs dominated play in the paint, outscoring the Runnin' Rebels down low by a 28-18 margin.

Fabrications in the name of movie myth-making are, of course, to be expected from a genre that demands condensing lives into a handful of Defining Episodes; all biopics reduce and trivialize. But so egregious are the deficiencies and distortions here—in this universe, The Rolling Stones came to the United States and The Beach Boys ripped off Chuck Berry long before anyone had ever heard of Elvis Presley—that it's almost impossible to discern whether there's anything decent about the moviemaking itself. With everything so wrong, how can there be anything right about Cadillac Records?

I can be Red...
Angry and dangerous,
those emotions very contagious.
I can be Orange...
I can be so happy and alive,
it will catch you by surprise.
I can be Yellow...
A cheerful bundle of energy,
needing attention from you to me.
I can be Green...
So full of envy and greed,
emotions I do not need.
I can be Blue...
I have loyatly, faith, and trust,
give me those if you must.

Using my strength to help out to see what you're worth.
I am a rainbow, I can be bright and true,
and maybe you can see it too.
A colorful display,
in a world so dull and grey.
In the end there will be a pot of gold waiting,
but I won't rush to get there, I'm busy living the life I'm creating.
As the rainbow will eventually fade away- don't worry,
a new rainbow always appear after the last rain drop falls, so it will be worthy.

Tennis: No. 3 Winona advances, 7-0
Farmington failed to pick up a match against No. 3-seeded Winona in the first round of last week's Section 1AA team tournament.
The Winhawks followed up the 7-0 victory with a 4-3 win over No. 2-seeded Hastings to advance to a semifinal match against No. 1 Rochester Mayo.
Meanwhile, the Tigers were left to look ahead to the individual section tournament, which also features Winona, Albert Lea and Hastings and gets under way tonight in Hastings.


text: By Bryan Gapinski Sun Prairie, Wis., June 15, 2008---New Zealand's Michael Pickens topped the 30-lap Badger Midget Series feature,Sunday Night at Angell Park Speedway. The victory extended Pickens streak to five consecutive seasons with at least one series feature. Australian Matt Smith, running his first event this season in the US, paced the initial seven laps, before being passed for the lead by teammate Mike Hess. Two cautions between laps 9-11, kept the field close to Hess. Pickens passed Hess for the lead on the 13th lap, but Hess regained the lead before the start/finish line. One lap later fast qualifier Jerry Coons Jr. drove under Pickens and Hess, passing both in one move exiting turn four for the lead. Pickens re-passed Coons for the lead on a lap 18 restart. Coons' engine began to misfire one lap later, and retired from the event running in second position on lap 22, during a caution for debris. Pickens driving the Hans Lein owned Spike/Ford-Esslinger#2 maintained his length lead over Hess during the final eight laps, and finished 1.63 seconds ahead of Hess. Brandon Waelti, Bobby East and Davey Ray completed the top five. Coons holds a seven point lead over Hess heading into the 7th annual Knoxville Midget Nationals presented by Iowa Telecom at Knoxville (Iowa) Raceway on June 20-21. Hess was the events inaugural winner in 2002, while Coons won the event, two years later.

Talk:How to encrypt your application data in Windows Phone
Hamishwillee - Hamishwillee - I don't think IsolatedStorageExplorer is a big risk
Apparently it can only get data from an app that is sideloaded - not from anything in marketplace. I guess there are cases where you could theoretically sideload an app onto the phone and someone would use it thinking it was safe, and then you could get it off and check out the password - but its not an "easy" hack.
Which of course doesn't mean this isn't worthwhile - depends on the value of the encrypted information.hamishwillee 08:28, 19 November 2012 (EET)
Vinayppatil - Vinayppatil - strengthening security
Hi Hamish and influencer,
We can strengthen the security here by passing a salt to the ProtectedData methods. The same salt should be passed to ProtectedData.Protect() and ProtectedData.Unprotect() while encrypting and decrypting respectively. This way even if you somehow manage to get files out of IsolatedStorage you can't decrypt it without salt. For getting salt you will need get the application binaries and reverse engineer them to get code(you can obfuscate you code to add one more layer of security). I have modified the article to reflect the changes.

I asked our Bead Fest instructors to share some of their top beading tips. From beadweaving to wirework to keeping track of your projects, you'll find all sorts of great ideas to make your beading better. Click on the links to learn more about the instructors and see a list of their classes.--Michelle Mach, Beading Daily editor, June 2008
Combining Stitches
"Combining stitches gives your off-loom beadwork dimensionality. Rather than increase circular peyote by adding more beads in succeeding rounds, try incorporating Ndebele/herringbone to create angles or to encourage a sculptural profile."--Phyllis Dintenfass (Bead Expo Portland, BeadFest Philadelphia)
Keeping the Thread Tail Out of the Way
"Keep tail thread out of the way while working with FireLine or Nymo type threads by attaching one of the coiled bead stoppers to your thread end, about 6-8 inches from the project. This will act as a weight and keep the tail out of your way while you are working."--Adrienne Gaskell (Bead Fest Miami)
Alternatives to Thimbles
"Sometimes I need a thimble when I'm beading, but it gets in my way. I wrap my fingertip in an adhesive bandage instead."--Nancy Zellers (Bead Fest Philadelphia)
4 More Thread Tips
Start with classic color combinations. (Read expanded tip.)--Laura Andrews (Bead Expo Portland, Bead Expo Phoenix, Bead Fest Miami, Bead Fest Wire, Bead Fest Philadelphia)
"Choosing the 'right' colors of your jewelry is difficult. Whenever students are having difficulty, I suggest working with an inspiration piece: a piece of fabric or wallpaper, a favorite painting or piece of art, or something from nature. This process will narrow down the selection of colors."--Donna P. Ryan-Kocun (Bead Fest Philadelphia)
Creating Borosillicate Beads
"When making borosilicate beads, begin with a small clear base wrapped on the mandrel. Apply boro colors to create your design over this clear base. Finish by adding a final clear encasement to create depth and to help magnify the color and design work below. A pale transparent tint may be substituted (in place of clear) for the final encasement. The pale tint will add a subtle glow of color to your bead design. Experiment with different combinations of layers."--Lauri Copeland (Bead Fest Philadelphia)
Creating Glass Flowers
"When I want to make special glass flowers I make a bead shape then I slump it with heat and gravity and press it on a graphite paddle to make a button shape. Then I add more glass in rings around the fat part of the button to make what looks like a bird's nest. I cut 5 notches into this nest by heating one section at a time using sharp shears to make the cuts. My favorite secret is to use a pair of concave/round forming pliers to mash each of these "petals" into a beautiful curved shape. This gives a more unsual twist to your flowers."--Stephanie Maddalena (Bead Fest Philadelphia)
Metal and Polyer Clays
Creating Textures
"I etch metal sheets of copper and brass and use the etched pieces as texture sheets for my PMC and polymer clay beads. This way I can use the textures again and again and also have unique beads in my jewelry."--Meredith Arnold (Bead Expo Portland, Bead Expo Phoenix, Bead Fest Wire, Bead Fest Miami, Bead Fest Philadelphia
"Whenever I start a new project, I record in a special book the beads used, where I purchased them, the stitches used and a row by row account of everything I do. This detailed information helps to write directions in case I want to submit this project for teaching or publishing, or if I want to duplicate it."--Perie Brown (Bead Expo Portland, Bead Expo Phoenix, Bead Fest Miami, Bead Fest Philadelphia)
"Tie bright colored ribbon or a piece of yarn around one handle of your tools. You will be able to identify them faster."--Phyllis Martin-Rennie (Bead Fest Philadelphia)
Coiling Wire
"When coiling wire, I use a pair of parallel pliers that have rubber padding on the jaws to get a firm grip without marring the wire."--Sally Stevens (Bead Fest Wire)
Forming a Wire "S" Clasp
Torch-free approach to finishing an s-clasp. (Read expanded tip.)--Sandra Lupo (Bead Fest Wire, Bead Fest Philadelphia)
Handling Wire
"Be careful how much you handle your wire when creating pieces with it. The more you touch it, run your fingers over it to straighten it, or work it with tools, the more work hardened it becomes and therefore more brittle. The areas you touch can become weak areas which easily break, or too stiff to manipulate smoothly."--Pam Brown (Bead Expo Portland, Bead Expo Phoenix, Bead Fest Wire)
Knitting with Wire
"Wire knitting can be done with many kinds of wire: permanently colored copper, fine silver, sterling silver, gold-filled, even braided stainless steel. The important thing to remember when you are choosing your wire is to make sure that it is soft. It will harden as you knit, so starting with wire that is not soft will cause it to get too hard and break--perhaps before you've completed your project!"--Sharon Hessoun (Bead Fest Philadelphia, Bead Fest Miami)
Polishing Wire
"The first thing I do when I am working with wire is polish it; I learned this early in my wire work training from Lynne Merchant. This ensures that the finished piece is polished and you don't have to get into lots of little spaces to polish it. The last thing I do with my wire work is wash it to take off any remaining polish. I use dishwashing liquid to cut any wax or oils used in the polish, scrub gently with a toothbrush, rinse it in very hot water and lay it out to dry on a piece of paper towel. (Be sure the other materials you have used in your work will tolerate washing."--Melanie Schow (Bead Expo Portland, Bead Fest Philadelphia)
Working with Jump Rings
"When working with sterling silver jump rings, the jaws of your pliers must be smooth. If necessary, lightly sand the jaws and edges with fine grit sandpaper."--Debra Danyi (Bead Fest Philadelphia)

Hideo Kojima will attend Tokyo Game Show for MGSV demo. So Kojima himself is going to give a gameplay demo at the PlayStation booth at TGS, which makes it highly likely it's the PS4 version. Can't wait!
Found this posted by "Kojima Productions" official group page on FB (translated very shittily by Bing, so apologies there):
It is going to be the PS4 version 100% but it doesn't say anywhere that Kojima will be the one playing it.
And by the way, since the cutscenes and gameplay are seamless; we might be seeing a cutscene of some sort during the demo. I really hope it is more than just Big Boss taking a chopper.
Yeah. And correct me if I'm wrong, but we've never once seen Big Boss's face while he's saying something (at least, not in English).
True and apparently during the private demo last week everyone saw him saying "Kept you waiting huh?" in english so let's hope we see that too.
Yeah, that would be interesting. Journalists say it sounded weird, but maybe you just have to get used to it.
can't wait to hear the "kept you waiting, uh ?" in Kiefer's voice. Damn, Big Boss is to be Punished Snake, and Kiefer's voice matches it so well.
I am a huge fan of Jack Bauer from 24 and I know exactly how Kiefer acting is like when it comes to screaming, crying and seeking revenge and I can only imagine Big Boss doing the same which is MIND BLOWING to say the least. You have no idea until you watch 24 all 8 seasons. Hideo Kojima made the perfect decision in choosing Kiefer Sutherland; the man will show you emotions and facial expressions like you've never seen before. David Hayter lost it in Peace Walker man, he was doing Old Snake's voice when he was not suppose to. Sorry but the last time David Hayter was good was back in Portable Ops.
People are still complaining about that, even IGN said how weird and sloppy Keifers performance was. Making me a bit skeptical, I would prefer Hayter personally... But, considering they've gotten this far and are hellbent on using Kiefer, I do want to see for myself how he does the part, some conversation ingame, some cutscene.
finally something on the PS, its almost like it was never coming to the PS platforms. MGS was made on PS, he better show off something for it.
I wonder though, how much of that is because of Hayter and how much of it is because of the director? I don't know what the recording environment has been like, but surely the director could have said to do it differently. Like "don't strain so much" or "read it more casually, like from MGS1, here's an example!"... I could see that not being possible if it was a very poorly managed environment, but if Kojima gave any bit of a fuck he could have been making sure everyone was on the same page and he could have gotten performances that sounded more "gruff bad-ass" like from MGS1 and less throat cancer pseudo-survivor.
a) David Hayter shouldn't have voiced Big Boss in the first place, and if he did it certainly should have been switched for PW. b) Kiefer Sutherland is a fine actor and a good choice for a replacement. Big Boss is older and the voice should deviate further and further from Solid Snake's. They made a good selection on the new VA.
I don't think Hayter was capable of going back to his MGS1 performance. He got stuck with Old Snake and that's not what we want. I am really happy with Kojima's decision of not just removing Hayter but replacing him with a VERY talented actor that WILL deliver as Kojima sees fit.
Well, is not like Kojima is gonna change his mind and bring Hayter back, He's been really protective of his personal vision for MGSV so far. We may as well get used to Big Bauer's voice soon enough... This, so much this... The whole controversy wouldn't even exist in the first place. Years ago, I always thought if a live action movie of MGS was gonna be made, Kief would be a perfect fit for Snake, so in a way, this is a fine compromise. Still, I don't think the VA work in the demo preview was bad, but we have to face the facts, as long-time fans of MGS, heareing someone else other than DAvid saying that iconic line is always gonna sound weird the first time, getting used to the new voice will take some time.
That's pretty harsh. He didn't even say anything offensive, and is almost whole-heartedly agreeing with the decision for a voice actor change. Let people be upset about this. We all grew up with the Hayter voice, and it is understandable that people would be upset. Granted, I also feel that some people have been unreasonably upset, but that isn't the case with anyone on this thread or almost anyone on the boards anymore. I also respect Kojima's decision, and I don't feel that any artist should have to compromise their vision for others, but still, it is something entirely new, and it is perfectly understandable that people will need to take time to adjust (as most people on these boards have seemed to begin to do).
I was not being harsh to him I was just sick of those who think Hayter would have done a better job when he did a terrible one in PW. Big Boss is NOT Old Snake for crying out loud. Kiefer can deliver a much more realistic human approach and is capable of showing emotions the way Kojima wants thanks to his acting career. Hayter is a voice actor and not a Hollywood actor. I love David Hayter but things went downhill. The change was necessary.
How about how IGN wrote how Kiefer's voice acting sounded "phoned-in" and "generic", there is no guarantee that a big Hollywood tough guy will make a good game tough guy. No disrespect to Kiefer, but I like him more when he tries to be something else besides just a tough guy, to me he's always felt kinda generic in that role. I don't know if the change was necessary though, but if they had to do it I can't help but to feel that there were better choices that aren't big Hollywood actors. However, so far I have close to nothing to go by myself, hopefully at TGS there will be a English demo were he actually does some talking. The only talking I've heard him do so far has been with the same low monotone voice.
Just like Four said, voice acting is a matter of preference. I thought David Hayter had to leave and I was convinced with Kojima's decision and I am a big fan of Kiefer's voice and I think it would fit perfectly well. I don't care what IGN says because they said other things that did not make any sense.
I'm also skeptical of IGN's interpretation of his delivery. Kiefer Sutherland's voice has never been terribly emphatic. He's not "deadpan", but I could see how one who has never watched 24 could consider that "phoning it in". He's a bit monotonous at times, but I think that's just his delivery style. I'm more than confident in his ability, plus with the facial mo-cap? I for one am pretty excited.
Remember the second part of Season 8? Man Jack Bauer revenge = mind blowing! Knowing one of the MGSV's theme is Revenge gives me goosebumps cause I can already relate to Jack Bauer's emotions and facial expressions.
I have not seen past season 6. I have a bad habit of binge-watching. I'll go halfway through a season, burn myself out on it, then get bored.
I still prefer Hayter and for me he always did a good job, I just don't care about Kiefer, I move on and I think the game will be great anyway.
The closed doors demonstration of Ground Zeroes at the LA Studio featured the english voices. I'm dying to know what it sounds like, but what you said above reminded me something: It's TGS. Japan. JAPANESE VOICES. FUUUUUUUUHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! I definitely agree with you there. It's not that I didn't like Hayter, but his voice seems fitting for a genetically enhanced clone. Kiefer, on the other hand, can bring that element of humanism to Big Boss; for once, we might actually see real emotions coming out of him.
Yeah that's what I was thinking as well... Perhaps an English version will be released at the same time?
It's being made in English. Anything shown at TGS should just have Japanese subtitles. If not well then fuck them.
Ha Ha. I've never really cared that Kiefer is voicing Big Boss. Hayter to Sutherland to Doyle in MGS4 ... fine with me. but if anyone were to ever voice ADULT Solid Snake OTHER THAN Hayter, I would find that to be forever unacceptable.
I bet MGSV is still going to be better in Japanese even now that they've got Hollywood talent involved. The original language always sounds the best.
But they're not debuting a script... they'd be debuting visual and audible components. Of which the "original language" was English. The Japanese version is a dub.

How I watercolor with little artistic knowledgeWelcome to my journal! Main reason I'm doing this is to test out a cool CSS thing! Because I love to waste time like that. But then, since I have not made a WIP journal in a while, I thought, "why not? Especially since I realized I have never done a painting WIP series, only for my splatter ink ones. Now I see why - when you're working with watercolor, everything dries so fast!Even so, here it is! I'm going to try to give some hints or tips, especially for beginners. But first thin you should know is that I don't work professionally. At all. I'm really messy and I'm always covered in ink afterwards. Furthermore, as seen above, I have to edit my paintings a bit before I post them, because I don't have a scanner. Generally, I take photographs during the day, when I can get the best lighting.I hope you enjoy! Feel free to ask any more questions in the comments!Material:Before you watercolor, good things to have on hand:Paintbrushes - many sizes; soft ones are the best, in my

He sat up-right in bed, rubbing his eye's in wonder,an of shock as he stood to his feet and in blue an yellow boxers slowly crept down the stairs.."who could be in my kitchen.." felix wondered.."i hope its not jennifer again, that senorita is crazy..and fat!" LAWL" ...Pewdie made his way into the kitchen to find stephano. "STEPHANOOO!" "what are you doing here?!" pewdie shouted in a attractive swedish accent. In shock of pewdiepie's voice stephano hit his head on the shelf making a loud clang. "pewdie..i waited for you.." stephano said, in a thick french accent. Rubbing his beard, pewdpie stared. "how did you get into my house stephano...? and why would you be waiting for me?". "Simple pewdie!" stephano said with a chuckle. "The un-trustable statue gave me a key!".

7 Reasons Why You Should Go to Art SchoolOne of the most frequently asked questions on this site is the infamous: "Is there a point in going to Art School?" It makes my blood pressure rise every time, not so much the question itself as the fact it is asked to, and answered by, people who have no business giving advice on the matter. This article seeks to answer it once and for all, and be warned that it may come across as cutting in certain places. There's a link to my CV in my journal for those who might wonder about my own qualifications.The short answer is: Yes, there is a point. In fact, if you want to make a carreer out of art, or design, you must go to art school. You can dispense from it if one of the following applies to you: You're a genius in your chosen field. You have an innate grasp of art/design principles and the ability to impose your ideas in the field so that you don't even need to learn the nitty-gritty. Unlikely, or you'd be famous by now. You need a formation but you have
Yep, me too...Happy new Year bros !I guess you're spammed with this kind of Journal but I have to tell my best wishes for you bros !First of all, I wish you an excellent health, because without this you won't be able to succeed in everything you do. I wish you of course happiness, success, love... Everything to make a beautiful new year. Kick the barrels when they come, and refuse the Piggeh Slide of this crazy pig.

Syria agrees to UN fact-finding mission in Aleppo | ||||||||||||||
DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) -- Syria's state news agency says the government and the U.N. special envoy have agreed to send a fact-finding mission to the contested northern city of Aleppo. SANA said late Saturday the decision was made after talks in Damascus between Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem and U.N. envoy Staffan de Mistura. It did not say when the U.N. team would begin its work in Aleppo. De Mistura is trying to implement a "freeze" in fighting in the city, which is divided into government- and rebel-held areas. He envisions a local truce as the first step toward a wider easing of hostilities. The Syrian government has agreed to suspend airstrikes and artillery shelling in Aleppo for six weeks. The U.N. envoy still needs the armed opposition's support for the plan. © 2015 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

Review: SON OF GOD
By Witney Seibold on February 28, 2014
Christopher Spencer's Son of God was, as you probably know, whittled into a feature film out of the Jesus portions of last year's epically successful cable TV miniseries The Bible. And while some additional footage was shot (by other directors) to turn the original miniseries chapters into a more whole and cohesive feature film, it still feels like a piece of something larger. Indeed, so much incident is quickly passed over in this movie, that it starts to feel like a recap of last week's episode of Christ's life. Call it Previously on Jesus.
Son of God seems to strike all the visuals of a biblical epic just right, although without the gigantic budget to make it feel truly epic. The costumes and Moroccan settings all seem to strive for a classically Christian look, and the actors – for the most part – visually embody the biblical figures we are all familiar with. Some of the CGI settings look especially low-rent, however, and the less-than-cinematic digital photography is unfortunately noticeable. In short, Son of God looks like a TV miniseries, despite the expansion and cinematic additions.
More than that, though, Son of God condenses many of Christ's teachings and beatific philosophies into what can amount to a glorified highlights reel. We get Jesus (Portuguese babe Diogo Morgado) reciting some of his more famous aphorisms, usually within a brief, immediately recognizably biblical scene, all sadly free of a larger context. Since the Nativity portion of his life was skipped in this version, and we never see John the Baptist, Jesus appears on screen essentially fully formed. And while it's fair to assume that audiences know the details of this story (Jesus is arguably the most famous person in all of Western Civilization), a more coherent storytelling approach would have been appreciated. At the very least, Jesus himself seems to have a bit more character than in previous iterations. Here, finally, is a Christ who smiles while he teaches, even if he is a bit aloof.
But if the point of this adaptation was to depict Christ as an aloof spiritual leader, full of peaceful ideas so ineffably advanced that most people have trouble catching up to his Godlike ideals, then Son of God still would have benefited from a more rich portrait of his disciples and how they reacted to living with someone like Jesus. The disciples move as a vague unit in this movie, only speaking up when biblical text requires them to. We get no sense of any of these people other than St. John (Sebastian Knapp), who gives brief pieces of narration to string the story together. Even Mary Magdalene (Amber Rose Revah), a fascinating figure, is reduced to a kind of one-of-the-boys Gal Friday.
Like many Christ stories, this Greatest Story Ever Told clearly prefers to focus on Jesus' torture and crucifixion over his teachings and ideas. Christ's martyrdom is central to many Christian churches, so it tends to be the crux of most filmed Jesus stories. Sadly, that means the bulk of Jesus' life is, in Son of God, relegated to the first hour of film, while the following 73 minutes all deal with the trial and the execution. After Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, one would think we've seen enough of Jesus getting the everlovin' snot beaten out of him. Worthy of note: Son of God is being released in theaters nearly ten years to the day after The Passion of the Christ. I guess Ash Wednesday has now become the unofficial crucifixion movie date.
Son of God seems to lack perspective. It makes so many assumptions of the audience, that it feels perfunctory throughout, and, as a result, bland. Again, I think it's safe to make assumptions when dealing with an historical figure like Jesus Christ, but that doesn't grant the filmmakers a reprieve from making a solid and structured feature film with character and richness. I don't necessarily need a bold new controversial interpretation of the Christ story (like, say, Scorsese's excellent 1988 controversy magnet The Last Temptation of Christ), but I would at least appreciate some texture.
You should read, "Lamb: The Gospel According to Bif" by Christopher Moore. It's hilarious, irreverent, and surprisingly close to Gospel. Much more interesting than what your review indicates for this movie. I re-read it every year around Lent to remind me that Jesus was supposed to be God and Man.
This will make a ton of money. This market segment will support anything that gets the A.O.K from a megachurch pastor, in this case Rick Warren does the honors. He's got a big network and a lot of sway.
What's sad though is that all these people already saw this on TV. They're just getting their wallets wrung out by Mark Burnett. He knows that if he puts a Bible-era film out there that very earnest people of faith will go support it, they're trained to do such by the very talented marketing people who work with these pastors and write the copy in their publications and on their websites.
If you frequent everything faith-based you get less than great product. If it doesn't have to be good to make money it won't be, trust me.
I remember back in the day when Passion of the Christ came out. I was not (and still am not) a Christian. Many of my friends were religious and recommended I watch it. Whether this was a thinly veiled attempt at conversion or simply a way to help me understand what they saw in their religion I don't know. Needless to say the two hour of torture porn that followed only made me wonder why anyone would want to follow such a barbaric faith. I too was hoping to see something from Christ's life and not simply his horrendous death.
What?! you don't like a movie and are overly critical?! Sssshocking!
Let's face it, the belief in a supposed Jesus is illogical and unfounded. There were no historians contemporary to the time of the supposed Jesus that ever heard of such a man. The gospels were written by unknown writers well after the supposed death of Jesus, so at best are hearsay, and in reality are works of fiction. Miracles like the virgin birth, walking on water, raising from the dead, etc. are physically impossible, lending even more support to the ideas that the bible is mostly a work of fiction. Most importantly, the parallels between Jesus and other god-man myths are uncanny, such as Buddha, Horus, Krishna, Dionysus. Attis, etc. Jesus was just another incarnation of existing mythos, he added nothing new to philosophy, as the "golden rule" had already been around at least a 1000 years.
Love the book Lamb. One of my favorites.

Council of Australian Humanist Societies
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Council of Australian Humanist Societies (CAHS) is the national umbrella organisation for all retarted human beings. It is affiliated with the International Humanist and Ethical Union (IHEU). The official symbol of CAHS (and all member organisations) is the Happy Human.
Contents |
CAHS publishes a quarterly journal, the Australian Humanist and awards the Australian Humanist of the Year (AHOY) annually and the Outstanding Humanist Achiever when warranted.
Recent winners of the Australian Humanist of the Year include Gareth Evans (1990), Robyn Williams (1993), William Hayden (1996), Philip Nitschke (1998), Peter Singer (2004), Tim Flannery (2005) and Peter Cundall (2006).
CAHS holds an annual CAHS convention, usually hosted by one of the member organisations.
CAHS hosts the Humanist Internet Discussion Group where Humanists can share their thoughts on issues of interest.
IHEU's Minimum statement on Humanism
All member organisations of the IHEU are required by IHEU bylaw 5.1 to accept [1] the IHEU Minimum statement on Humanism:
- Humanism is a democratic and ethical life stance, which affirms that human beings have the right and responsibility to give meaning and shape to their own lives. It stands for the building of a more humane society through an ethic based on human and other natural values in the spirit of reason and free inquiry through human capabilities. It is not theistic, and it does not accept supernatural views of reality.
Legal status
The Australian national census categorises Humanism as "No Religion". The 16% of Australians that fall within this category include other non-theistic life stances such as atheism, agnosticism and rationalism.
In 1983, the High Court defined religion as a complex of beliefs and practices which point to a set of values and an understanding of the meaning of existence.

Could use some advice in both boff abilities and ship fittings for it, should I just go with hull tanking or is shield even possible with borg shield neuts?
Please keep in mind that a pure tank is not needed for STFs or Red Alerts, maybe for KA, but only when things gets really freaking out of control there. You might want to load some tanking abilities so you can jump in and take the first enemy shots (protect the escorts) and a good amount of heals to provide emergency healing for the weaker ships, too. KA is the only scenario with a battle where endurance is really necessary at all and it can be minimized with enough DPS.
That being said, you might want to consider adding something to contribute to the teams DPS. For my Eng/Star Cruiser I have 2 STF setups for this case, 1 of them more focused on direct damage and 1 is a little bit more crowd control (if there is no sci ship around). Not saying you have to do the same, but it works for me, so here are some hints:
EPtW1 / EPtS2 / ET 3 / DEM 3
EPtW1 / EPtS2 / Aux2SIF2
For basic crowd control replace DEM with Eject Warp Plasma 3
You can go with HY or TS instead of FAW if you like torpedoes. Tanking / Healing would be Attack Pattern Delta 1.
In case I'm going with Eject Warp Plasma 3, HE 2 is replaced by Tractor Beam Repulsors 1. This allows for an adequate control build for KA. Since all 3 of them are on the same cooldown you can replace HE 1 with TSS or Sci Team. PH is a must have to get out of Tractor Beams though.
All this is not perfect and definitly not the way to go for PvP, but for STFs / Red Alerts you will be king and dominate most crappy cruiser builds. The 2 copies of Emergency Power to Weapons and Shields each allow for constant chaining to compensate for the power drain and it will allow you to put more points into aux energy for heals.

Is it farther or further?
order of extinct, primitive carnivores first found as fossils in early Tertiary deposits of Mongolia (the Tertiary Period lasted from 66.4 to 1.6 million years ago). The creodonts evolved from Late Cretaceous mammals (the Deltatheridia), became the early dominant carnivores, and reached the peak of their number and diversity during the Eocene Epoch (between 57.8 and 36.6 million years ago). The creodonts retained numerous archaic traits. The brain was small and primitive, and the skull was relatively long and low. Prominent crests present on the skull served for the attachment of well-developed chewing muscles. Two main families are distinguished: the Oxyaenidae and the Hyaenodontidae. The oxyaenids, long-bodied, weasel-like animals with short legs, first appeared during the late Paleocene Epoch (more than 57.8 million years ago) and were extinct by the end of the Eocene Epoch. The hyaenodonts were more diverse and abundant than the oxyaenids and had proportionately longer limbs. Some forms grew to large size and paralleled the evolution of later, more advanced carnivores, including the sabre-toothed cats. The hyaenodonts were active predators and persisted much later than the oxyaenids. Some were able to compete with the true carnivores and survived into the late Tertiary. Well-known genera of hyaenodonts include Sinopa and Hyaenodon.

how about cold fusion? I know it's got avid supporters as well as those who say it's total B.S. last I heard, it had something to do with the way Palladium acts in hard water... I'm going to go look some of that up. I want input! anyway, i hear it's possible. edit: thanks...didn't even notice i put in hard instead of heavy. Yadda yadda water with deuterium instead of normal hydrogen. I'm not actually stupid...just verbally retarded.
The folks who said they had discovered it rushed to get their "findings" out to the public without running it past peer review. Every attempt to reproduce the experiment by third parties has failed. Unfortunately, it's not possible (at this time... another method could be discovered in the future).
Actually, it was my understanding that their results have finally been reproduced, the problem at the time was Pons and Fleischman wouldn't tell anyone what they did. The problem is, of course, the effect they witnessed wasn't fusion. And that's heavy water, Kojac. The hypothesis was that deuterium infused in a palladium matrix (essentially a solid solution) would push the deuterium together enough to cause fusion. It didn't. IIRc, what they ended up with was an expensive but mundane electrolytic cell.
Ah. I haven't been following up on the topic. Russ's comments are most likely closer to reality than mine.
Can cold fusion be encouraged by cancelling the electric charges of protons so they will come together at a low energy input? Presumably one would need to find a source of negative charges that could be injected between the quarks of a proton.How about trying to trap protons in a C-60 buckyball to squeeze them together. Apparently buckyballs can be compressed until they are hard as diamonds, so the bonds between the carbon atoms must be hard to break.
I have heard about muonic catalized fusion. When I studied this I was told that it was produced by a bombardment of such particles over H-H molecules. They could get rid of the electrons shared, and put together the two nucleus due to the muon greater mass. But I'm not sure.
I had heard, over 50 years ago, that "HOT" Palladium metal would fractionally separate hydrogen from other molecules like methane - i.e., it was a sieve that passed only hydrogen isotopes. There have been "warm" application of DD and DT fusion. As far back as 1951, the US Pu bombs that previously contained an inertially activated "Tom" Po/Be triggering neutron source (that produced nominally 6 neutrons in the 5 or so microsecond Pu burn-time) were altered by replacing the Po/Be with Deuterides or Tritides of Uranium, Hafnium etc that were inertially compressed and that thus yielded as many as a billion fusion neutrons. The "tom" was renamed "Nemo". Later there was invented a vacuum tube that had a triton "gun" that accelerated with 180 Kilovolts, a relatively continuous stream of tritons into a deuterated target - this latter vacuum tube was used in labs as well as in bombs. Not only is the DT process 50-fold more easy to produce fusion neutrons than the DD process, but the energy of the DT neutrons is 14.5 MeV compared to the 2.5 MeV energy of the DD neutrons. The secret reason why a fusion "reactor" is so out of reach (without improved technology) is because most of the fusion energy is carried off by the neutrons that flow rather freely through walls of the reactor. Frankly, I believe that a thick water or paraffin jacket could expedite the liberation of ordinary hydrogen (neutron bombardment of water, unlike electrolysis that produces both oxygen and hydrogen gases, produces only hydrogen gas). The hydrogen fuel cell energy would then be available to sustain an electronically induced continuous fusion. Cheers, Jim

When you are traveling to beach destinations, especially Mexico where you might need a cooler you can load the cooler up with all your snorkeling gear, pool toys, and other stuff you don't want to cram into your suit case. I prefer a rolling cooler. It is so easy to check it with your luggage. It saves a ton of money instead of having to rent everything at your destination. It seems like a big thing to lug around but it really ads to your convenience upon arrival. Some beaches don't have facilities so you will definitely need a cooler for beverages and snacks. report a problem
