Yeah kevlar! This really is an epic job with textures. I like this shirt and if I actually liked s'mores, I might be lighting a fire ; )
Now this is a band I can't imagine EVER breaking up. On the other hand, their deliciousness is dangerous. They wouldn't be able to appear in public more than once or twice before someone eats them.
I loved this when I saw it, I voted for it, I thought warmer thoughts about the Doors than I have in years, and I realized how fracking old I am when I remembered how exciting it had been to discover the Doors long before they became popular.
I may be too damned old for this Tshirt.
At first I LOLed because funny. But then confused. I dunno about you but when I make s'mores my marshmallows are visibly toasted (I actually set them on fire). Why isn't this one?

There are too few pictures of the band post-formation, since they got eaten so quickly. They had to use older pictures of the band mates for this shirt, obviously.
Try explaining this one to somebody who wasn't a teenager in the 70's
This is a tasty shirt! And it really captures the Derby theme well: the font and layout are very reminiscent of concert shirts.
Way to go, Kevlar! Congratulations on the print.
Congrats Kevin, and RIP Jim S'morrison.

At least John Densmore is still with us.
The guitarist for the S'mores was great - really played some tasty licks...
At first glance, it looked like it had a long, graham cracker sleeve.
Sure, the S'mores had their meltdowns but it was only because they were Waiting For The Sun for too long
People are Strange, but I'm sure they'll Love this shirt Madly 'till The End

Quality Post!
I really want to like this.
The doors were one of the first bands I liked, discovered while going through my dad's vinyl collection as a kid. However, the graphic is just too large for my taste.
I've noticed this with some other shortwoot's as well. I'll buy a design I really like and then, when I get it home and put it on, the graphic is so large it covers the entire front of the shirt. I feel like I have a plastic billboard on my chest because heavy application of the ink they use tends to build up and stiffen the fabric.
I was fully expecting this to take first place, but second place works too.
Damn fine design kevlar!
I was a teenager in the 90s and I absolutely loved The Doors.
Congrats Kevlar!
if you are making them in the microwave they don't toast. Although, nothing compares to toasted when you have a craving you do what you gotta do.
I knew this would print, Kevin! Congrats!
Regarding the 70s comment, my son is 16, he knows exactly who The Doors are and got this reference right away. That's because his parents are giving him a well rounded music education!

I was a teenager in the 00's and I get it too. Good music never dies.
The Doors
Pink Floyd
et. al.
Bands that transcend generations in appealing to teens.
Send them here:
This adds a whole new meaning to waving lighters during the ballads.
Congrats kevlar
Now, may I have s'more please?!
Thanks so much everyone! And thanks Woot editors!!!!
This is the band photo for 1971's Light My Campfire Tour. How's Marshie going to be toasted if they don't have a campfire yet?
This is exactly how a parody shirt works. Great idea, funny, well executed... CONGRATS MY FRIEND!!
Felicidades Kevin! its very funny!
Aww give our generation some credit. I'm 18 and I get it :D I love s'mores madly.

I'm totally late to the party, but thrilled to see this won! I voted for it, and I just bought 2! Both for me. This must stay in my camping-shirt collection for many years to come.
Nice graphics, I bought matching shirts for my son and I. After 3rd wash a hole began to appear in one of the shoulders.

Spectrum for Mobile Broadband
Everyone should have access to mobile broadband — at a reasonable cost and with dependable performance — and governments around the world have embraced this goal. Success depends largely on the supply of spectrum made available for mobile services. Without sufficient spectrum, the mobile industry cannot deliver a rich and dynamic mobile future for all.
In 2011, a 4G connection generated 2.4 GB per month…28 times more traffic than a non-4G connection (86 MB per month).
Productivity gains from mobile technology by high-mobility workers…amounts to 2% of GDP across the Arab States.
In EU countries, delays in releasing 800MHz spectrum is slowing LTE roll-out and adoption…In 2017, less than 20% of mobile connections will be LTE.

Hi: 10° Lo:5°
By Laura Payne Thursday 06 December 2012 Updated: 13/12 09:58
A FAMILY outing turned into a nightmare when a grandmother and her six-week-old grandson became trapped in a lift at Dorridge Station.
Karen Hames has slammed the health and safety at the station after her mum Denise Thompson and her baby son Henry were stuck for half an hour.
The traumatic event occurred during what should have been a relaxing day out but the trio, who were supposed to catch the train from Dorridge to Birmingham, didn't even reach the platform.
While Mrs Hames was busy buying tickets for the journey, her mum and son went ahead and got in the lift, but it broke down, trapping Mrs Thompson and Henry inside.
Distraught mum Mrs Hames, who could hear her baby screaming, was astounded to learn the key to open the lift motor room was miles away at the station in Birmingham.
And she told the Observer she received little sympathy from staff in Birmingham although an assistant at Dorridge Station did her best to help.
Mrs Hames said: "I said to the assistant what if it was an old person trapped alone in there? They could have a heart attack and die.
"I was absolutely disgusted and distraught. It's an accident waiting to happen.
"My baby was screaming and my mum could hear me getting hysterical.
"The assistant was young and she was getting no support from her manager on the phone."
With no key at Dorridge Station, Mrs Thompson called the fire brigade and she and her grandson were rescued after thirty minutes.
Mrs Hames said: "Henry is my third child but if he had been my first I would have been even more distraught.
"There seemed to be a lack of a contingency plan and with the health and safety issues it's an accident waiting to happen."
Chiltern Railways, who run Dorridge Station, apologised to Mrs Hames.
In a statement they said: "We have been in contact with Mrs Hames to discuss her experience and to convey our apologies.
"The relevant key for the lift motor room is kept on site. On this occasion the key could not be located; we are currently investigating why this was the case as it had been used during a routine inspection the previous day.
"A replacement was supplied immediately after the incident."
The statement also said the fire brigade is called if the person trapped becomes distressed or if the maintenance company is unable to get there quickly, but in this instance the family decided to call them.
"On this occasion staff were advised that an engineer would be on site within a relatively short time, as both people in the lift were safe, the decision was made that it would not be necessary to call the fire brigade," they added.

BTW they uploaded videos of how things work.
only reason i don't have one right now is because my N9 started to flake out about a month ago, before a release date for the Jolla Phone had been released, so i buckled and bought a Nexus 5.
fully intend to hop aboard the good ship Jolla when v2 rolls around, though.
It's exciting because it's Wayland. What more is needed? Why get excited about anything? Why get excited that a phone has a quad core cpu, that allows you to post twits on facespace one nanosecond faster? Why get excited because Apple offers their same-old phone with new colours (which other manufacturers have been doing for years)? Why get excited about baseball?And what is the exciting thing about running Wayland? I've seen this idea in a few places. It's a piece of completely utilitarian, behind-the-scenes software. I could never figure out the hype.
Much of it revolves around the idea the protocol has been designed to take advantage of modern graphics techniques without the baggage of carrying vestigial legacy requirements. It's a well defined and stable API, both from the point of view of the display server and the client. It can make far better use of what the hardware is capable of, and allows developers and system integrators far more flexibility in UI design and functionality. The hype is about what can potentially be implemented with Wayland, and the Sailfish UX is the first commercial example.And what is the exciting thing about running Wayland?

1. full ripe Linux userspace unlike android
2. respect to gnu, unlike commercial android
3. not dumbed down by default unlike android (adblock possible over cellular (where it precisely needed due to ad suckage of expensive traffic), can remove Google forced chrome, can use libreoffice (with Google still ignoring ODF and sleeping with docx))

Bad Company Making Late Night USA TV Debut On 'The Tonight Show'
Thursday, June 6, 2013
40 years into its career, Bad Company will finally make its late night U.S. TV debut. The band will promote their upcoming 24-city 40th anniversary summer tour by appearing on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on Monday, June 10th. Since reuniting in 2001, Bad Company has only played 11 isolated performances, and has not staged a North American tour until now. The band features original members frontman Paul Rodgers, guitarist Mick Ralphs, and drummer Simon Kirke. Joining them on the road is former Heart guitarist -- and recent Rock Hall inductee -- Howard Leese and Rodgers' solo bassist Todd Ronning.
Blabbermouth.net posted that Bad Company has teamed up with DiscLive Network, to present fans with double CD soundboard copies of their shows. The discs, which are available for purchase the night of the concert, "will be individually numbered and packaged in super high quality digipaks . . .will also contain an extra 'bonus' CD with an exclusive 'rockumentary'-style interview with the band."
Frontman Paul Rodgers told us that Bad Company did everything they could not to fall into a hard rock formula that so many other band latched on to: "If we had a hit like a "Can't Get Enough" or a "Feel Like Makin' Love" or anything, I don't know -- "Run With The Pack" -- we never tried to do -- or said, 'Oh let's write another one like that.' Wee look for a song that delivers a simple message in a fairly tough way, y'know? Not too sentimental. We never get maudlin or anything like that."

2. Envy
Elves are strange folk, Gimli thought, and this one's like a dandelion in a dragon's den. Narrowing his eyes underneath his bushy brows, he watched the Elf surreptitiously, waiting for a repeat of the strange gesture.
All too soon, as the Elf crossed the Dwarf's path yet again, Legolas drew a vigorous X across his chest with one elegant hand, and tugged on his chin, smooth as a baby's behind, with the other.
By Durin's axe, he's mad. Gimli caught Gandalf's glance. A mischievous twinkle lit up the wizard's eye.
"Pay no mind, my good Dwarf," Gandalf said in a low voice. "It's the thirteenth day of the month, and Thranduil's folk believe it brings them good luck on this day to cross a Dwarf's path and themselves at the same time. The chin cupping is to honor your kind."
Snorting, Gimli stroked his luxuriant whiskers. Beard envy—of course.

Election in Tunisia: choosing a candidate online
Many online tools help Tunisian citizens choose their candidate for the October 23 elections. 'Occupy' protests continue across the globe. And a British graphic artist pays homage to Tintin in a minimalist cartoon.
Election in Tunisia: choosing a candidate online
The campaign for the Constituent Assembly vote, set for October 23 is in full swing in Tunisia. But for the first free elections in the country, it is difficult to choose between the hundreds of parties and the thousands of candidates in the running. Many online tools have appeared to help voters to get to know the new players in local political life.
'The Tunisian Political Party Portal' offers an online classification of the various parties taking part in the elections, according to the parties they represent. A classification also offered on the site 'Fhimt.com', where the 109 parties in the running are clearly identified with colour coding.
Several blogs attempt to decipher the parties' programmes and in so doing help voters choose objectively. This is the case in particular for the 'Tunisian Political Observatory', an independent site launched in September, aiming to scrutinise the proposals and communication, made by organisations constituting the country's new political sphere.
And with the same aim of helping voters get to know candidates a little better, the 'Tunisia Talks' initiative was set up to organise interactive debates regarding the vote, on YouTube. Citizens can fire questions at political figures who answer in videos then diffused on a channel created for this reason, on the share site.
Finally various tools have also been designed to compare the parties' programmes with each other based on proposals, or particularly important themes, in net user's opinions. Whether on Ajidoo or Bosala.org, voters are offered guides to help find the best candidate for them.
Occupy protests continue across the globe
From Frankfurt to Tokyo and stopping off in Mexico City, the Occupy movement has spread to hundreds of cities worldwide. Tens of thousands of protesters gathered together on Saturday in front of symbolic places, such as the London stock exchange to denounce world finance excesses. Mobilisation which relied heavily on the net and social networks.
The organisers of these protests were invited to take part in a virtual general meeting to pool their ideas, and coordinate their activities more efficiently.
And on this blog created in the US where the movement has been expanding ever since its launch a month ago, net users' testimonies are flooding in. All say they make up the 99% of people who are victims of a financial system which they feel, is easy on the rich, and tough on the poor.
Some of the privileged few launched a blog to express support with the Occupy protesters. Around one hundred left a message, most, calling for the public authorities to increase their taxes, in solidarity with the disadvantaged members of the population.
And to denounce the inequality activists are calling on this site for net users to print statistics on bank notes, regarding for example, the distribution of wealth in the US, or the average salary of an office worker compared with that of a big boss.
Occupy Sesame Street
On the fringes of the 'Occupy Wall Street' movement another group has appeared online: 'Occupy Sesame Street' in reference to the famous children's TV show. Whether on blogs or on social networks, net users have been having fun, using snaps taken during protests in Manhattan's financial district. They have inserted characters, from the hit TV show, as a zany tribute to the New York 'Occupy' protesters.
Now trending on social networks
'#Halfbeard', is currently one of the most used expressions on social networks, ever since Scooter Braun, the agent of young Canadian singer, Justin Bieber, decided to shave just half of his face as seen on several pictures posted online. A bizarre idea which is the result of a bet lost by Braun and which is generating many comments from net users, who gently poke fun at this rather strange style.
Video of the day
London graphic artist, James Curran is a fan of the cartoon, Tintin and to mark the cinema release of the famous journalist's adventures, he has created this fake title sequence, which he has posted online. Using only minimalist shapes, the cartoon is brimming with references from the 24 Tintin albums, and should delight all fans of the 9th art.

April: Encouraging/discouraging
Apr 30, 2012, 2:13 PM EDT
US Presswire photo
Gio Gonzalez is one of four Nats starters with a sub-2.00 ERA.
After a rough trip out west that ended with four consecutive losses to the Padres and Dodgers, the Nationals are enjoying a much-needed day of rest. Here at the Insider, of course, there's no such thing as rest. (Those of you with children know what I'm talking about.)
So let's use this off-day, as well as the fact it's the final day of the month, to take a look at both the encouraging and discouraging developments of the season to date…
ENCOURAGING: The Nationals rotation has been, plain and simple, awesome. We're running out of superlatives to describe this group of starters, so let's just run through the stats. The rotation's collective ERA now stands at 1.78 (the Cardinals rank second in the majors at 2.57). Opponents are hitting .186 against Nationals starters. They rank second in the league with 129 strikeouts while issuing the second-fewest walks in the league (32). In 16 of 22 games to date, Nationals starters have surrendered zero or one earned run.
DISCOURAGING: Despite all those sparkling numbers, the Nationals' rotation has a collective record of 8-4. That's what happens whenRead more »

"Section 222 said… Michelle — Some of the $2 seats are actually in the Mezzanine section — like around 227 down the 1B line or 207 down the 3B line. And I remember them doing that promotion in August and September when the season was winding down, not at the beginning of the season. I could be wrong though."You would be wrong. Last year they had $2 Tuesday in May when the Pirates were here. That game got rained out (the one where they called the game early and then it didn't rain) and I parlayed that one $2 ticket into a seat for the makeup doubleheader in July. Good times.This time, if they offered $2 tickets for the mezzanine they went quickly. I checked last week and all that was available was 400 level.

Section 3, My PFB Hitterish Sofa said…If it were that easy — "just watch Bryce Harper and do what he does" — everyone could do it. I'd do it. You'd do it.Even if they don't have Harper's natural talent, they could certainly learn to hustle and keep their heads in the game like him. I LIKE seeing a guy run out a comebacker like his life depended on it. Make the other guy hurry his throw; you never know what might happen.Harper – the anti-Nyjer: http://www.natsenquirer.com/2010/05/nyjer-morgans-temper-tantrum.html
- baseballswami - May 1, 2012 at 12:44 AM
The$2.00 tickets are usually pretty limited in number. No nats tonight. I hope they are getting rested up and rejuvenated for the Dbacks, who scare me.
- NatsLady - May 1, 2012 at 1:02 AM
Ouch, Tommy got shelled, 8 runs, 7 earned. Not his day, I guess. RSox leading 11-1, question is, can they hold it?More importantly, can the Pirates hold the 6-3 lead?
- Section 3, My PFB Hitterish Sofa - May 1, 2012 at 1:09 AM
Damn–hustle and keep my head in the game…THAT's what keeps me from playing like Bryce! Thanks!!

…that and probably the inability to hit a hanging curve…

…Damn–hustle and keep my head in the game…THAT's what keeps me from playing like Bryce! Thanks!!You jest. . . but . . . it sure seems that way, sometimes, when, for example, you lead off the ninth, with a new pitcher, and you swing at the first pitch. Knowwhatimean?
- JaneB - May 1, 2012 at 2:08 AM
I will sound like a sap. But I am happy we aren't 6 and 14, like we have been other years. I am glad that Storen will be back in July 2012 and not 2013. I am glad to good coaching and scouting, and too many good pitchers. I wish we knew for sure we'd see Zimm and Morse full strength this year. But I am glad for everything else, not the least of which is a team in Washington and a great sportswriter who has been covering the Nats from the beginning. From where I sit, it's all encouraging. I really mean it.

Peric, two days = small sample size, They are not sending him down when Zim gets back (G-d willing) this weekend. But even week is a small sample size. NatsLady, sample size isn't even under consideration. Davey Johnson wants to finish Bryce Harper's development. He does not want to trust that responsibility to the good Mr. Beasley and Doug Harris' organization. No one pays attention! Mark Lerner was surprised to here that Harper had been singled out to come up? Rizzo had made it sound like it would be Tyler Moore. Guess what? When Lerner asked Rizzo he told him he had broached that with Davey and Davey said its time … he wants Harper.Johnson did what the organization wanted … let him go and tried to use the veterans they had acquired for him. Right now Harper's job is to make Davey look like a genius … making it look as if they should have just let him join the 24-man up front. If he does that I bet Tyler Moore could ride his coat-tails. And why not? Why not bench Werth if he isn't hitting and let Morse, Harper and Moore play? If you don't believe this you haven't watched Davey Johnson manage a ball club.

Just saw this:Nationals' Brad Lidge to have surgery to repair hernia
- NatsLady - May 1, 2012 at 2:29 AM
You are preaching to the choir, peric. I said already several times that Harper would come up as early as possible and stay up. Other scenarios are possible (as I said, small sample size), but I vote for Harper "learning on the job" so to speak.
- Section 222 - May 1, 2012 at 2:42 AM
So Davey got his way, and got Harper up as soon as possible after the witching hour of 21 days passed. Of course, his task was made a lot easier by the futility of those professional hitters like DeRosa, Tracy, and Nady, who turned out not to be as good as…. Davey Johnson said they were. (Remember, it was Davey who absolutely had to have DeRosa.) Anyway, I'm totally fine with Harper being here for awhile. It's going to be quite a ride. Can't wait to see how he does.
- peric - May 1, 2012 at 2:49 AM
Davey Johnson said they were. (Remember, it was Davey who absolutely had to have DeRosa.) True but at the same time he likely had to agree about having a veteran bench to go with so many young starters. It pretty much always started out like this for him when he managed other places. Alex Cora got his first job as the Dodger's shortstop because Johnson was the manager. Brought him up from the minors when the veteran in front of him wasn't working. It all has a very similar ring to it.
- NatsNut - May 1, 2012 at 2:57 AM
I'll vouch for you NatsLady. You did indeed insist that Bryce SHOULD come up and/or WILL come up as early as April, if not out of spring training. I know because i (silently) thought you were out of your mind. haha. You totally got me on that one. =)
- Section 222 - May 1, 2012 at 3:12 AM
Yup, I remember NatsLady taking that position too. And I'm pretty sure I didn't just silently think she was wrong, I probably said so too (since I rarely keep quiet when I think someone is wrong.) So take a victory lap, you deserve it. To be fair, that was before Morse got hurt and the Goon Squad replacements had a BA under the Mendoza Line. Now I'm on the Harper bandwagon big time and happy to recognize that NatsLady has a seat right up front.
- Section 3, My PFB Hitterish Sofa - May 1, 2012 at 3:15 AM
Actually, the hanging curve is my specialty. I can't hit a slider for [anything].
- Section 3, My PFB Hitterish Sofa - May 1, 2012 at 3:21 AM
I was arguing as late as last week there was no way Harper would come up. Worrrngg…I now renounce and abjure my error. And all its minions.

Daniel Rosenbaum is unbelievable. On Monday night he threw 7 more scoreless innings without a walk, dropping his ERA to 0.76.Going into tonight's game he had a CAREER ERA of 2.24 in 62 starts — and it's going down again. Matt Purke has a major league deal and Meyers has a blazing fastball, but Danny Rosenbaum is going to pitch in the major leagues.

Wow! Mark's wonderful blog has been taken over by a few people who are flooding it with OT posts and private conversations. He took the time and effort to introduce an interesting topic and about 3 posts addressed it before the pontificating started. Too bad if anyone else wanted to comment on the topic. Get a life, people.I'm outta here.
- DHamm - May 1, 2012 at 12:24 PM
I am a STH and it does not bother me one bit that they offer $2 seats. In fact, I think it's great that they try to get bodies in the stadium to sell $8 beers. Good business move.
- NatsLady - May 1, 2012 at 12:41 PM
carolync, one tough grader! Went back and I thought it was one of the more interesting and educational threads I've seen on an off-day. I admit, I read Mark's posts, but they rarely say much that I don't already know and his comments, once read, stay the same all day. I'm far more entertained by the ebb and flow of the discussion–as long as it doesn't turn nasty.Chewing over the weekend series, lots of stats, differing opinions on Henry as a closer and how Davey is managing Henry, excitement over Bryce Harper, spiced up with humor and zingers at the Fish, no personal attacks, in fact, support among "imaginary friends."I think Mark puts a topic out there to start off the day, but I personally never felt that was the sole topic of discussion, especially on a day when he only puts one up there.That's just me.
- NatsLady - May 1, 2012 at 12:49 PM
Here is Boz on Henry (from his chat):"Henry Rodriguez __way ahead of schedule. Mine anyway. I've watched every flamethrower from Mesa to Benitez to Gossage to I-don't-know-how-many. In an amazing game where he felt responsibility not to screw up Strasburg's win and Harper's debut, he got really nervous and lost control. So what? He needs all those steps (and failures). You're looking for pieces for an eventual October team. You want them stressed to the cracking point __many times__ so that their acceptable stress load becomes higher and higher."
- A DC Wonk - May 1, 2012 at 12:54 PM
Wow! Mark's wonderful blog has been taken over by a few people who are flooding it with OT posts and private conversations.Most of the comments have been on the Nationals — how is that off topic? HRod, Harper, Davey, bench, farm, etc. . . . seems pretty much on topic to me, no? Or am I missing something?A minority of posts seem to be about people getting to know each other . . . kinda like a community. I think that's a good thing.
- MicheleS - May 1, 2012 at 12:58 PM
So I will add this to Discouraging:Lidge goes under the knife. Yuk! Hate to see that for anyone, but hope he gets better soon.Henry, it's your job until Drew comes back. So take your best shot and grab the opportunity! We (as fans) will grab the bourbon and the maalox, just in case! Barkeep Sunshine, time to stock up!
- natsfan1a - May 1, 2012 at 1:02 PM
The bulk of the comments also struck me as on-topic, whether relating to specific points in Mark's post or to the Nats generally. I will also note that Mark's posts often say things that I didn't already know, him being a long-time baseball reporter with access to the team and all. In fact, much as I enjoy the commenter community that's developed around this blog (seriously, I do), it's our host's offerings that keep me coming back. I also don't mind his putting up just one post on an off day after a road trip. But that's just me.

May 01, 2012 8:49 AM _____________________________Thanks for sharing. This backs up a few comments and puts into question Coaches wisdom, I am sorry to say. Nats had 2 straight losses, the bottom of their order was coming up, like was written, Lett saw how poorly he was warming up, and a 2 run lead.Sounds like Stammen should have finished it up. Again, all closers don't need 95 heat, stuff worked for Chad Cordero and Brad Lidge (previously).

Numbers and Letters guy:Just wanted to jump on your band wagon…your comparison of Henry to Joel was spot on. I remember the Hanrahan melt-downs and the similarities between those and Henry's latest resonate with deja vu.

Here is Phillies announcers on Cahill (he features a curve, slider, change): "Unbelievable sinker, runs all over the place. Good breaking ball. Gives RH hitters a lot of trouble because of all the movement."

Sounds like Stammen should have finished it up. Again, all closers don't need 95 heat, stuff worked for Chad Cordero and Brad Lidge (previously)Funny . . . I come to the exact opposite conclusion. Let him learn how to pitch in high-pressure nervous situations now, even at the risk of a loss, so that when we really need him down the stretch, when we're in the middle of a pennant race (and Stras has been shut down), he'll be a veteran (so to speak, as much as anyone who is 25 can be a veteran).I remember the Hanrahan melt-downs and the similarities between those and Henry's latest resonate with deja vu. Let us all figure out whether HRod is going be a Hanrahan _now_ or not — so we know who we can depend on in the upcoming pennant race, with crucial games against the Braves, or Phils, or Fish, or whoever, (which I'm sure is in our future, just a few months from now).The pressure he faced last week is small potatoes to what's coming up in Sept. Let him learn it now.And that's obviously what Davey is thinking, too.

Ramos almost becoming a liability behind the plate. Dropped throws from the outfield and pop ups to the infield not to mention the miserable performance the other night with the wild man throwing ( although can't place the entire melt down on him). Need some consistency here somewhere if it is even just average!

As an up-and-coming haven for the technologically driven and artistically-inclined, Seattle is one of the most independent, beautiful, and business-friendly areas in the United States. While many people are scared off by the prospect of rain (it's not that bad, really), people that live in Seattle love how each neighborhood is home to eclectic activities and places to hang out. From the endless options for delicious coffee to the amazing hiking located in and out of the city, Seattle apartments offer a truly unique experience in a truly unique city.
As the Emerald City continues to grow in popularity, the price of rent has also continued to rise. While there are still some areas that are super affordable, apartments in Seattle neighborhoods like Capitol Hill and the CBD tend to start out around $1,500…and that's for a one bedroom. Neighborhoods that are less in-demand tend to be a lot more affordable, though they still offer the same unique feel as all other parts of Seattle. Honestly, there's no bad place to live in Seattle, in our opinion. Most people live close to where they work, and all parts of the city have aspects that make them great.
There are several reputable colleges and universities in Seattle, including Seattle University, the University of Washington (also known as "UDub"), Seattle Pacific University, and a host of community colleges. Seattle is also a leader in fields like computer software, environmental engineering, and biotechnology, with Amazon and Microsoft both making their home here as well. Whether you're getting your degree, starting your career, or have years of experience under your belt, Seattle has the opportunities for you to live your dream.

Welcome to Hutton-in-the-Forest, this ancient and historic Cumbrian house which was at least two hundred and fifty years old when it was bought by my family in 1605. We love living here and are sure you will enjoy visiting. As well as a rich variety of architecture, furnishings and a beautiful garden, there are varied outdoor events during the summer, including the Plant and Food Fair, open air Shakespeare, Potfest in the Park and Horse Trials.

And we have over 5 000 votes! With all the Steam news regarding Linux, I hope this particular request on GOG gets lots of attention too!
If I would have the option, I would say "No" against the motion:
- comparing Valve with their internal products with a company that resells other software is misleading at best: Valve ported their games on Linux, not others. They encourage other to do the same, yet Valve does not make the dirty work.
- porting a game to Linux is hard, if is not using a layer of emulation like DOS-Box or Wine. The reason is that many old games are with a lot of assembly x86 code that access hardware fairly directly. This code is hard to be understood and hard to make sure if it is written in a portable way. Also many companies in games did had quality related issues for many many years: speed prevails over code quality. John Carmack states this about software in year 2011, what about software written 15 years ago!?
- GOG may not have access to all software when they pack the game, they may need just to patch the launcher and to fix specific installations issues in their QA part. I have bought Septerra Core, and some issues appear at random with Win7 (that throws you to desktop)
A solution it would make if game companies after 5 years would make the core of the engine opensource, so people can port their game (exe and .dlls) to another platform(s)/hardware. GOG they fight for distribution freedom (no DRM) but not for OSS per se, so there is a long long way to make the software accessible on other platform (even be it Linux, iPad, Android or such).
So Project Eternity by Obsidian Entertainment is currently being funded via Kickstarter, and a Linux version will be made once 2.2 million US dollars have been pledged. The current pledge lies at 1.65 million US dollars, and the Mac OS version has been secured. Now take a look at the following, taken from http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...y/posts/311594
So this game will definitely support Mac OS, and at the rate that the game is being funded at, will most certainly support Linux as well. The game will also be making its way to GOG because of GOG's policies on DRM. GOG, however, still doesn't support any operating systems outside of Windows, and with more and more games supporting both Mac OS and Linux as well, this is becoming troublesome. The guys at Obsidian Entertainment believe this as well. For our Mac friends, we are still working on a DRM free option, since GOG does not currently support the Mac. I do believe GOG needs to seriously consider expanding as several GOGers are now getting their games from sources that support more than just Windows, and this trend is only going to become stronger as multiplatform support increases.Originally Posted by Obsidian Entertainment
Please, GOG. You've done so much good by choosing to spit in the face of DRM and regional pricing, among other things. Don't wait till it's too late.
Source.Originally Posted by GOG
So Mac OS support is definitely coming it seems, but what's this? There's a another new operating system GOG is planning to support? Judging from the thread, the new operating system will likely be Windows 8, but many are still hoping that it will actually be Linux. GOG is known to support Windows, so supporting a new version of Windows wouldn't really be that big in terms of news, but then again, stating official support is necessary too I suppose. Still, Linux is moving up in the gaming world judging from all the Humble Bundles, Kickstarters, general indie attention, along with Valve and Steam support, while Windows 8 is getting a lot of flak. With GOG taking on more and more indie games, are they realizing that they are losing some sales due to people buying games from sources that offer games for all three major platforms?
I would have never known such initiative existed.

It's not just a Summer get away.........
My husband and I just returned from a nice weekend at your cabin and although we can see how much fun it would be there in the warmer months.... it made an excellent Winter get away as well. We loved the large stone fireplace and had a nice fire going while we settled in to read and watch TV in the comfortable living room. The river view was excellent, and yes the stream running under the porch can be heard. It's not just a Summer place.... we enjoyed our Winter visit.
