When a person drinks alcohol, it affects almost every part of their body. Beverage alcohol (i.e., ethanol) can change brain chemistry and become lethal in high doses. Ethanol is metabolized in the liver at a rate of approximately one drink per hour, with wide variation depending on conditions, including weight, gender, and food.
More specifically, after alcohol is ingested, it reaches the stomach where about 20% of the alcohol absorbs into the blood stream, through small blood vessels. The remaining 80% of the alcohol continues to the small intestine and is absorbed there into the blood stream.
The alcohol flows through the blood stream and is metabolized by the liver, where the alcohol is broken down by enzymes. The liver can, on average, metabolize about one standard drink (i.e. one 12 ounce bottle of beer, one 5 ounce glass of wine or 1.5 ounces of 40% alcohol) in one hour. Alcohol consumed in addition to these amounts can generally not be processed by the liver. When this happens, your blood becomes saturated and the additional alcohol makes its way to your body tissues and blood stream, until your liver can process the excess alcohol. (Source).
You can use B4UDrink, an initiative from The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility, to calculate Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) and learn more about how alcohol affects your body.
Alcohol can alter sleep patterns, basic motor function, and thoughts and emotions. Additionally, memory problems are fairly common among adolescents who consume alcohol.
Some studies have shown that moderate use of alcohol may have a beneficial effect on the coronary system. In general, for healthy people, one drink per day for women and no more than two drinks per day for men would be considered the maximum amount of alcohol consumption to be considered moderate use. For persons under the age of 21 there is no healthy or legal amount of alcohol.

LOS ANGELES, CA — The National Soccer Hall of Fame announced today that U. S. Women's National Team stars, two-time Olympic Gold Medalists, and two-time World Cup Champions Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy have been elected to the National Soccer Hall of Fame in the Player Category. The announcement, sponsored by The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility's Girl Talk: Choices and Consequences of Underage Drinking, took place at The Home Depot Center in Carson, CA.
The two players will be inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame at the 2007 Induction Ceremonies on Sunday, August 26th in Oneonta, NY. The results of the Veteran and Builder Elections and further details on the 2007 Induction Weekend will be released in March.
"This is truly an historic moment," Hall of Fame President George Brown stated. "There were a total of 62 players on the ballot, of whom 15 were women. For the first time in the history of the Hall, those selected in the Player Category will be only women. Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy, who were in their first year of eligibility, rose to the top just as they did in their playing careers. And Mia Hamm's vote total was the highest in our election history. Hamm and Foudy were a lethal combination as teammates and it is fitting that their careers should be capped by being enshrined together in the Hall of Fame. They richly deserve this recognition and we will be honored to welcome them into the National Soccer Hall of Fame."
Hamm was selected on 137 of the 141 ballots cast, setting a new high in votes received. Her 97.16% surpassed that of the previous percentage garnered by Michelle Akers in 2005, who was elected with 95.77% of the vote. Hamm's career is one of unparalleled success. While she, along with five other U.S. Women's National Team members, won two FIFA World Championships and two Olympic Gold Medals, she became the leading scorer in international soccer and the face of women's soccer in America. Her 158 international goals shattered the previous record by 50 goals.
Further, she was an unselfish player, assisting on 144 goals scored by her teammates, figures that unquestionably make her the most dangerous player in the history of the game. During the course of her 18-year career, the Women's National Team had an impressive 82.5% overall winning percentage in her 275 matches. She was a founding player of the Women's United Soccer Association and, in 2003, led the Washington Freedom to the Founders' Cup Championship.
"I was both surprised and honored when the President of the Hall of Fame called to tell me that I had been elected," said Mia Hamm. "I have always held the game in great respect and to be included in the Hall along with individuals who have represented the game at the highest level means so much to me. I am very excited and looking forward to being a part of the induction ceremonies in Oneonta."
Foudy was elected with 83.69% of the vote, having been selected on 118 ballots. Her Women's National Team career included serving as the team captain, following the retirement of Hall of Famer Carla Overbeck (Class of 2006) from 2000 through 2004, including the historic overtime win in the Gold Medal match of the 2004 Olympics. In her 271 international match career Foudy scored 45 goals, had 59 assists, and the team had an amazing 85.6% winning record. Foudy was also a founding player for the WUSA and led the San Diego Spirit for its three seasons. She has been President of the Women's Sports Foundation and has used her visibility in the sport to bring issues beyond soccer to the forefront, most prominently, with her membership on the President's Advisory Committee on Title IX. She has, among other societal causes, been active in promotion of The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility's Girl Talk program.
"I have always considered myself blessed to have played alongside the most amazing group of women for two decades. To now be recognized alongside so many incredible pioneers and legends in the game of soccer is an incredible honor," said Julie Foudy.
The top ten on the 2007 Hall of Fame Players' Ballot were:
|Mia Hamm
|137 Votes
|Julie Foudy
|Joy Fawcett
|Marco Etcheverry
|Thomas Dooley
|Joe-Max Moore
|Carlos Valderrama
|Peter Vermes
|Peter Nowak
|Mauricio Cienfuegos
Complete results can be found on the National Soccer Hall of Fame web site, www.soccerhall.org.
"The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility applauds Mia Hamm and Julie Foudy not only for their athletic achievements on the field, but also for their great sense of family and community," said Ralph Blackman, President and CEO of The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility. "The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility is honored to be part of this wonderful opportunity to highlight the careers of two women who had the drive to achieve their goals, breaking down barriers in women's sports every step of the way for young girls everywhere."
The good news is that underage drinking has declined over the twenty years; the bad news is that there is a slower decline among our nation's girls. Recognizing the need to address this issue, The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility partnered with the U.S. National Women's Soccer Team Players Association and the Society for Women's Health Research to create Girl Talk: Choices and Consequences of Underage Drinking. Designed to educate mothers and their teenage daughters about the specific risks facing young girls regarding alcohol, the Girl Talk program discourages underage drinking and encourages girls to live healthy and active lifestyles. The program includes a brochure and website for moms, www.girlsanddrinking.org and a website for teenage girls, www.grltlk.org.

Kare Gyoza (Curry Potstickers)
Not too long ago I came across a post about curry gyoza. I had never even though about filling gyoza with left over curry. It sounded like a great idea and I just had to try it.
Gyoza are Japanese dumplings. They are generally filled with ground meat, vegetables and seasonings. The dumplings can be boiled, steamed, deep fried or shallow fried and steamed. I prefer to shallow fry and steam as you get to enjoy both the crispy fried side and the soft steamed side. Gyoza are typically dipped in a soy and chili oil sauce but since the curry has so much flavour I skipped the dipping sauce. The edge of the gyoza are typically folded up so that the bottom of the gyoza is flat. The first time that I made gyoza I was not able to get the wrappers to fold right but this time they came out pretty well.
By the end of the week the leftover curry is getting a bit dry from being reheated so many times and this is the perfect time to make the gyoza. Assembling the dumplings takes a bit of time but I had no problems doing this on a weeknight. The kare gyoza turned out pretty good. They were nice and tasty. If there are any leftovers I would imagine that they would be a perfect fit for a bento/lunch box.
wonton wrappers
leftover curry
1. Mash the leftover curry into a paste. (You may have to shred the meat with a pair of forks.}
2. Place about 1/2 tablespoon of the mashed curry onto the center of a wonton wrapper.
3. Wet the other edge of the wonton wrapper with water.
4. Fold the wonton wrapper over the curry filling and press the center of the edge together to seal.
5. Fold a bit of wonton wrapper towards the sealed center and press to seal. Repeat until the wonton is completely sealed on both sides of the original seal.
6. Assemble the remaining gyoza.
7. Heat some oil in a pan.
8. Add the gyoza with the fold on top and press a bit to flatten the bottoms against the pan.
9. Fry until the bottom of the gyoza are golden brown.
10. Add some water to the pan, cover and steam until the water has evaporated, about 3-5 minutes.

Guns of Icarus Overview
Guns of Icarus Online is a multiplayer FPS that sends you straight to the skies, putting you in the shoes of a member of a steampunk flying ship crew. Teams of ships will duke it out above the wastes in a post-apocalyptic style world using a variety of weapons, ranging from grappling hooks, to missiles, and even flamethrowers.

Gunner – The Gunner is fully equipped to duke it out with enemy ships, and possesses a plethora of different ammunitions for different ranges and effects. If you want to set the enemy on fire from a mile away, this is your class.

Guns of Icarus Online – Co-op Prologue
Guns of Icarus Review
By Gui
There's no denying it, steampunk is a neglected genre as far as games go, a strange thing considering how popular it is in literature, and its very successful titles, with such fan adored names as Thief and Arcanum. That's why it's always good to see a game like Guns of Icarus Online pop up. Originally set up through Kickstarter, it now comes with a 19.99$ price tag through Steam. Yes, it is a pay-to-play title, so this is a bit different from our usual reviews, and we'll take this into consideration as we go through the many features Guns of Icarus Online has to offer.
Clockwork & Steam
Let's start with the obvious; Guns of Icarus Online is not a MMO. The reason we're reviewing it, is that it has a planned adventure mode that is supposed to closely resemble a MMO experience. As of now, Guns of Icarus Online consists of a skirmish mode. In short, for your 19.99$, you get a team battle/area control experience, with little progression, but sizeable planned expansion. The game looks very good; the interface is smooth, simple, easy to use, and straightforward. The graphics are average, but everything is incredibly well created. The characters have some crazy cool looking uniforms, and the ships are outright stunning. Fans of steampunk have a great love of aesthetics, and they will not be disappointed here. The battles are gorgeous, epic, and intense, made all the more so with the soundtrack, noticeable for the drums, a bit reminiscent of traditional Japanese drums (think Shogun 2). The performance is where things start to go wrong. Expect lag, lots of lag, and enough glitches to go around, mostly in crowded battles. Weaponry in particular has a tendency to go weird at the worst moment, leaving you wide-eyed as your flamethrower refuses to fire at a perfectly exposed and vulnerable enemy ship.
Rockets, Flamethrowers and Hooks!
The thick of Guns of Icarus Online is, in a sentence, you working with your crew to make sure the other ship does not get out alive. That's it; flying ship battles, no more, no less. This is both its greatest strength and failing. For one, the battles are a pure, absolute blast, with ships racing through the sky as shower death at each other. Crews of 4, including 1 captain and 3 engineers and/or gunners, occupy one of many ships of varying sizes, speeds and functions, in which each part, from guns to engines, can be damaged and destroyed. Each class can perform any function, but are evidently much better at their calling. This is not due to having more efficient tools, but rather, it's because they have more of them. As an example, gunners will have to choose between carrying a hammer or an extinguisher, while the engineer can do both. On the other side, gunners have different ammunitions for different ranges and effects. The classes all have fewer slots than possible items, making team composition crucial, and matches fairly competitive. And it doesn't end there; ships are an equally crucial part, with each of them having their own layouts, different gun slots, stats and specificities. They are indeed different enough that each of them offers a somewhat different gameplay experience.
Blazing Skies
There are few things more entertaining than rushing about and wielding different mounted turrets as you gun down the other ship. Unfortunately, that's all there is to it. Once you've played a few matches, there's not much more to see, unless you intend to play competitively. There's too few ships to make the experience diverse enough, too few game modes, and only the promise of future features to keep someone going. There is a progression system, but it offers no reward other than achievements. Essentially, the game's longevity comes almost exclusively from customization available as soon as you start playing. This is the major downside of Guns of Icarus Online; the experience is top notch, but there's just way too little of it, resulting in minimal replayability. For 20$, this is not a good deal. They have an in-game vanity store set up to pay for future upgrades, and while the items offered are very neat and for the most part cheap, it does feel like a bit of a rip-off to pay 20$ for a limited experience, and then 1 to 5$ more for individual aesthetic items. This would be a bit more justifiable if there was more value to that 20$ you put in.
Final Verdict: Fair
While Guns of Icarus Online has a very solid foundation for an incredible experience, it's just that, a foundation, with little on it. Don't get me wrong, there's fun to be had here, and this is a very cool experience that you will remember, if anything for its originality and intense gameplay. But there's just not enough to justify the price tag. Of course, all of this may change if the developers' promised adventure mode comes through as expected. It wouldn't take much – a few more ships, some more maps, another class, but more importantly, a solid, unlock-oriented progression system, any of those things could add much needed longevity to an otherwise anemic title.

Fire in basement spreads to kitchen in Dover apt.
Saturday, December 29, 2012
DOVER — A structure fire broke out Friday afternoon on Hampshire Circle, spreading from the basement of a multifamily apartment building to one unit's kitchen.
"Because the fire extended up from the basement onto the first floor, we had to open the walls," Driscoll said. "We are just making sure there are no pockets of hidden fire now."

In 2011, the rate of alcohol-impaired driving fatalities per 100,000 population was 3.2, representing a 65% decrease since 1982, when record keeping began, and 49% since the inception of The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility in 1991. What this translates into is, for every 100,000 people in the US in 2011, slightly more than three people were killed in a drunk driving fatal crash, a rate that has been cut almost in half over the past two decades - down from a rate of 6.3 in 1991.
Alcohol-impaired driving fatalities accounted for 31% of the total vehicle traffic fatalities in 2011. Between 1991 and 2011, the rate of drunk driving fatalities per 100,000 population has decreased 49% nationally, and 63% among those under 21. These statistics and others are positive indicators of the gains being made to fight drunk driving, and while The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility cannot claim to be the sole influence in these reductions, it is likely we have played a significant role in reaching these historic low levels. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 32,367 people died in traffic crashes in 2011 in the United States (latest figures available), including an estimated 9,878 people who were killed in drunk driving crashes involving a driver with an illegal BAC (.08 or greater). Among the people killed in these drunk driving crashes, 66% were drivers (6,507), 27% were motor vehicle occupants (2,661), and 7% were non-occupants (710), with an average of one person dying in a drunk driving fatality every 53 minutes.

Looking for some High/Epic fantasy book series, with a strong romance sub-plot.
Hello everyone, recently I've been lurking these forums trying to find some good book series to start working my way through, and I've decided to make my own post to see if I can find some series with all (or at least, most of) my preferences.
Now, bear with me, I'm not making this post without reading any of the post before me. I went to the handy-dandy search function and picked out several threads similar to mine, but sadly, there was only about 4-6 threads that had any relation to what I was looking for, and I would like some more reccomendations.
That being said, here are my preferences:
-Hopefully, I would like the novels to be part of a series, at least a trilogy. My reasoning behind this is because larger book series usually allow for much more in-depth plots, and I don't like when the characters I come to love only have one book to their name.
-I really do want a strong romance, but I do NOT want it to be the focus-point of the book. I need a strong plot to go with the romance, or I feel like there isn't much point to keep reading if I'm not going anywhere with the story.
-I'm a sucker for magic, the "chosen one" cliches, and all that. I've really enjoyed the series like Sword of Truth, Wheel of Time, Mistborn, etc etc (Except I felt like the romance in WoT was a bit lacking, it was good and all but I felt like it wasn't developed enough.)
-Cliches are perfectly fine, I haven't read enough fantasy to be annoyed with them yet.
-Explicit scenes are fine, I'm even of the opinion that they add some more depth to the story. However, not required at all.
That's about it for now, I'll edit if I forgot a point that I wanted to add.
It would be much appreciated if you would include a short summary and a x/10 rating.

I'm sure the following have been mentioned more than once:
Jacqueline Carey, Kushiel books (some BDSM, not too detailed, but the heroine is a courtesan who enjoys pain)
Anne Bishop, The Dark Jewels books
Codex Alera, by Jim Butcher - lots of romance but doesn't overshadow the story. I think it's very romantic, too. The lost heir theme is present but with a clever twist.
Patricia McKillip, The Forgotten Beasts of Eld
Poison Study, Maria Snyder
Lilith Saintcrow, The Hedgewitch Queen

Try Dragon Prince and Dragon Star, two related trilogies by Melanie Rawn. It has been a long time since I read these books so I wouldn't do them justice in a summary, but Wikipedia has a good article about them here. Rating them is difficult as well, because I've read a lot of books since that I like a lot better, but that is due in large part to personal taste, not the quality of the books necessarily. So let me just say that the books are well-written, the world (it is an alt-world setting) is fully realized and the main characters have depth and are interesting. Most importantly, the two series meet all of your criteria.
Strong romance...check
Romance not the focus...check
Plenty of magic...check
Some clichés...check
Some semi-explicit stuff...check

maybe farseer trilogy by robin hobb. though its probably more starcrossed lovers. the second trilogy [liveships] is probably more what you are looking for.
July 14th, 2012, 06:40 AM #5
Curse of Chalion springs to mind, Bujold has romance in a quite a lot of her stuff, though it mostly doesn't overshadow the rest of teh plot. That one is one of her best imo. And check out Sharon Shinn, or for older stuff Chronicles of Morgaine by CJ CHerryh.

I would take a look at:
The Indra series by Sherwood Smith
The Twelve Houses by Sharon Shinn (and her Angelica series, which isn't so much high fantasy)
Nine Kingdoms series by Lynne Kurland
Deed of Paksnarrion and continuing series by Elizabeth Moon (not as much romance in the first three books, but you need to read those to get to the later books)
Green Rider series by Kristin Britain
Cast in series by Michelle Sagara
Either of Lynne Flewling's series
Happy Reading!

Hello everyone, just dropping in to say that I've been keeping a tab on this page, look at all the reccomendations. I'd like as many as I can get, I have a lot of free time. Now, lets look at some of these books:
Kushiel's Legacy I read a bit of this series, but this isn't "epic" on the scale that I'm talking. I like my stores rich with magic and adventure, like the books I mentioned: SoT, WoT, Mistborn, etc etc
Codex Alera I'm seriously thinking of trying this one, but after reading a couple of description and reviews, it says that the main character is actually pretty useless. Is this just at the start, because I cant handle books where the main character cant do much.
Dark Jewels I managed to slug my way through the first book of this series, but this is a good of example of "too much focus on romance" for me. I ask for romance as a sub-plot (Best example SoT) and this book was laden with romance.
Kingkiller Chronicles The most recent book series that I read, perfect example of what I want, if a bit light on the romance. People looking for things similar to me, try this out and you wont regret it.
Farseer The first-person narrative really threw me off, might try to read it again, for now gonna stick to more-familiar writing styles. (Yes I know Kingkiller was first person also, but the two dozen or so pages I got through Farseer was just uncomfortable.)
Don't worry though, I've looked at all the reccomendations, just giving you guys some information to refine the types of books you throw at me.
Well, that's it for now, I appreciate all the reccomendations, keep 'em comin'.
Thanks, will be posting again later.

I recommend A Shadow in Summer by Daniel Abraham. It`s part of a series of 4 books, I think only the first one really has the amount of romance you`re looking for, but it is really well done.
I love all the books, and recommend them all without hesitation, but just be aware the romance sub-plots in the first and to a slightly lesser extent, the second, aren`t carried through the whole series.

thats complete and utter bull. it might be true in the first book and partially true in the second, but after that tavi is one of the most capable characters in the series. even if he can't furycraft his brains still allow him to not be useless. that said theres not much romance in it. there is some, but not a lot.
I'd give more info but this is already edging way too close to the spoiler cliff.

Seconding the Kushiel and Chalion books.
Carol Berg is always reliable for excellent fantasy with strong romance elements. The romance doesn't usually come to the fore until the second book of the series, but there's always lots of groundwork in Book 1 as well. The Rai-Kirah trilogy is my personal favorite of her work, but the Bridge of D'Arnath series is probably of more interest from a romance angle.
Martha Wells' Fall of Ile-Rien trilogy is great, as well. I've only read the first volume of her current series, but that's hitting some strong romance territory, too. (Her other work is standalones, but again, good romance.)

Another vote for Curse of Chalion by Lois McMaster Bujold. A great book and good series. Her Sharing Knife series is also good.

I'd second the recommendation of Dragon Prince by Melanie Rawn, though to be honest I wish I'd passed on Dragon Star.
I would add to the list A Man of his Word which begins with The Magic Casement by Dave Duncan.
Also, Once A Hero by Michael Stackpole would also fill all your criteria except for the fact that it's a stand-alone.
A Wizard in Rhyme by Christopher Stasheff has both romance and adventure and the first few books are very good, though it gets repetitive after that.
Also a bit D&D-flavored, but Rose of the Prophet by Weis and Hickman fits into your criteria as well.

Vermont's historic sites, museums, re-enactors and educational groups are telling the stories of Vermont in the Civil War.
The stories are of deeds on the homefront and on the battlefront: Vermonters who assisted former slaves; men and women who worked in mills and factories supplying the North with needed arms, blankets and clothing; girls and women who volunteered in aid societies; citizens who defended Vermont in the northern-most land action of the war on Vermont soil; and the Vermont regiments who fulfilled the state's pledge to serve "full duty" and distinguished themselves on multiple battlefronts.
Vermont welcomes you to explore this unique Civil War history.

I finally got last months drivers working with gentoo and now a release that supports 2.6.18 which makes me very happy. Now to see if it installs nicely and plays well with xgl.
ATI fglrx 8.29.6Phoronix 8.29.6 Review- Linux 2.6.18 Kernel Support - Radeon R200 Support Removed - Various Fixeshttp://www.phoronix.com/vr.php?view=7375Once again, it is the time of the month when new ATI display drivers are presented and it's now the task of Phoronix to evaluate this latest package. Over the past several months, we have seen a horde of improvements reach the proprietary drivers from the Radeon X1000 support earlier this year to X.Org 7.1 support. Other recent changes include a combined i386/x86_64 installer, new distribution packaging support, Radeon X1000 TV-out support, ATI Events Daemon, dynamic displays, and many aticonfig changes. Today with the release of the 8.29.6 fglrx drivers there have not been many changes that affect the end-user, but still there are some items worth mentioning. After several drivers of heated changes, it looks as if we have now reached a slowdown in their development cycle as ATI prepares for the next arsenal of features and fixes. Hitting this month's 8.29.6 driver is Linux 2.6.18 support, removal of R200 product support, and a few resolved issues.
I finally got last months drivers working with gentoo and now a release that supports 2.6.18 which makes me very happy. Now to see if it installs nicely and plays well with xgl.
It should play very well with XGL now. Be sure to report back on how it works for you with Gentoo.
i fing one thing strange...ati claims avivo for xv is not supported yet on xorg 7.1
well check this out

so i HAVE xv available now. hmm....Code:X-Video Extension version 2.2 screen #0 Adaptor #0: "ATI Radeon AVIVO Video" number of ports: 4 port base: 115 operations supported: PutImage supported visuals: (snip) Number of image formats: 3 id: 0x32315659 (YV12) guid: 59563132-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 12 number of planes: 3 type: YUV (planar) id: 0x30323449 (I420) guid: 49343230-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 12 number of planes: 3 type: YUV (planar) id: 0x41424752 (RGBA) guid: 52474241-0000-0010-8000-00aa00389b71 bits per pixel: 32 number of planes: 1 type: RGB (packed) depth: 32 red, green, blue masks: 0xff, 0xff, 0xff
not mentioning i can properly play videos using xv with those drivers on my x1300pro card. yay!
Very interesting about xv... I haven't tried it yet, but will give it a go on a few X1k machines to see how it stands. I'll also see if ATI has any comments about that matter.
Yes, we perform tests with the ATI Linux Display Drivers on a very frequent basis. In fact, for personal use my laptop has Radeon graphics.
The Xpress 200/200M is notorious for troubles with the fglrx Linux display drivers... I have heard nothing about ATI's intentions on fixing the issue.
Do you know if when you put in a ticket through the ATI support website, if the Linux developers actually get the information? Since they always send me an automated reply that says they don't support laptops, I'm never sure. It does say in the automated reply that the information is still forwarded to development.
Yes, the appropriate developers will receive the information. I can tell you definitively that ATI Linux developers are very aware of the Xpress 200/200M problems.

The War Horse star is shooting his latest project Sunshine on Leith, a big screen adaptation of The Proclaimers musical of the same name, in Glasgow, Scotland and he was enjoying a break when a driver lost control and crashed into another vehicle just yards from where he was standing.
A witness tells Britain's Daily Record newspaper, "Peter looked really shocked. He was outside enjoying a cup of tea and a cigarette when it happened.
"The cars collided just a few yards away from where he was standing and he looked quite taken aback. Once he found everyone was OK, he started smiling again and went inside."

New here, so sorry about the newbie questions.
Can I plug appliances such as a camera charger or light directly into the power socket on a campsite pitch as if I was plugging it in at home?
So basically I could use an extension cord into the tent from the power box and run electrical appliances?
Also bought a 12v cooler box to run from the car, how long can it be plugged into the car and run before the car battery would go flat? Are we talking hours, days, weeks roughly?
Many thanks for help!

Tom Rush brings back 'boomer' memories
Saturday, January 5, 2013
Editor's Note: The following is a first person account of a recent concert in Boston, Mass. featuring a Portsmouth artist.
While attending Harvard he gravitated to the embryonic folk scene, particularly the legendary Club 47 in Cambridge. His personae and skills are often said to have been the foundation of the folk revival. Numbering among his followers and friends were Joan Baez, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor and Jackson Browne.
Blazing a trail throughout four decades, Rush was a staple on the college circuit, and the 2000s have seen a renewed interest in his music. Recently a song went viral on YouTube, receiving over six million plays, prompting Rush to comment "I've waited 45 years to become an overnight sensation!"
Urged by friends to celebrate his 50th anniversary in the business, Rush investigated the cost to bring a one night show to Symphony Hall where in the past he had appeared in some holiday concerts. He was astounded at the cost.
Tom Rush took the stage about 10 in the evening to tumultuous applause and he proceeded to show that he has lost nothing off his fast ball. He intermingled old favorites such as No Regrets/Rockport Sunday with newer creations. One such was a tongue-in-cheek love song to his wife. Rush also showed that his humor hasn't disappeared, referring to the fact that his wife may have been more moved by his writing the song for her "if I hadn't emailed it to her from the road."
Rush, again in a link from the past to the present, mentioned the inability of some fans to attend the evening's performance for "they had lost their home in Sandy."

I'm trying to display a login screen the first time my app runs, but not for all subsequent times the app is launched (assuming the correct login credentials were provided the first time).
What would be the best way to do this using NetBeans Visual Midlet creator? I've tried using the switchDisplayable() method but I'm not having much luck.
Thanks in advance.
I managed to solve it...
Code:switchDisplayable(null, getLoginScreen()); // write post-action user code here try { usernameAccessCodeRecordStore = RecordStore.openRecordStore("usernameaccesscode", true); if (usernameAccessCodeRecordStore.getNumRecords() != 0) { switchDisplayable(null, getMainWindowList()); } usernameAccessCodeRecordStore.closeRecordStore(); } catch (Exception ex) { System.out.println(ex); }
