Storm Online
Storm Online Overview
Storm Online is a Chinese developed MMORPG from Shanda Games. It has a 2.5D graphic style and a classic isometric view. Complete quests and fight monsters for experience, but be prepared to defend yourself against other players in this open PvP game world. Besides choosing from three classes, players must also select which of the four factions they want to align with. While the graphics are a bit dated, the game does have bright visuals and plenty of PvP options.
Warrior - The class with the most powerful physical attacks. Warriors can study Swordsmanship and the Art of the Sabre.
Hunter - The ranged archer class of Storm Online. Hunters can learn Archery, Auxiliary, and Crossbow related skills.
Mage - The long range, caster class. Mages can branch into three branches: Thunderbolt, Fire, and Three Realms of Eternity.

Quick Takes On Billy Joel, The Rolling Stones, Fleetwood Mac and Sammy Hagar
Thursday, April 11, 2013
Billy Joel is building Bruce Springsteen a motorcycle. Billy explained to Cycle World how his Oyster Bay, Long Island shop, 20th Century Cycles, got the nod from "The Boss" to build him his new bike: "Bruce is always looking for a character bike. I told him about our shop, so he came down in the middle of winter. It's freezing -- minus five degrees -- and he wants to take out my Sacred Cow bobber. I said, 'Are you crazy?' It's so cold, and he had no gear, just a helmet. After a ride, he came back and said, 'I want you to build me that bike.' So he gave us the specs, and we're almost finished with it. It started out as a Kawasaki W650. The frame is black and the tank will be metal flake gold. Man, he's hardcore." (Ultimate Classic Rock)
The Rolling Stones have finally announced the opening night show of their upcoming 50 & Counting Tour. The band will kick off the dates on Thursday, May 2nd, at L.A.'s Staples Center. When the band announced the initial North American dates last week, they needed to keep the Staples concert TBA due to pending NBA and NHL playoff schedules.
During Fleetwood Mac's April 6th concert at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center, Lindsey Buckingham revealed that the first new material from the band in a decade is coming imminently. While introducing the new track, "Sad Angel," Buckingham told the crowd: "One of the things we thought would be a good idea before we hit the road would be to go into the studio and cut some new material. So last year we did that. It's the best stuff we've done in a long time and in a few days we're going to drop an EP of new stuff." No firm release date for the EP has been announced. (Vintage Vinyl News)
Sammy Hagar says that he'd be up for hanging with Eddie Van Halen once again. Hagar, who last fronted Van Halen back in 2005, has been at odds with Eddie and Alex Van Halen since, but was asked what he would say to Eddie if he had the chance and responded in part, "Well, right now I'd say, 'Wow. Great. I've seen some pictures of you recently. You look like you're healthy and doing great. I'm really proud of you and I'd like to see you continue doing that. Here's my phone number. Call me up if you wanna hang and just have some fun and goof off.' And whatever that led to, I wouldn't say, 'Hey, let's get together and do it again,' because you would have to do that slow, because I would never do it again under the last circumstances. But I would do it again under different circumstances. So it'd be like that. And then I would also say. 'And also here's Mikey's (Anthony) phone numbers with mine.'" (Blabbermouth)

Sometimes the powers-that-be behind Woot will pick a few derby "losers" to print simply because they like it so much. Usually happens right after a Double-Take derby which contain past honorable mentions for folks to vote on.
All reindeer are "girly." For years, I thought "Bambi" was a girl. Do you know any men named Bambi? I don't.

This one seemed to be a bit of a slow burn, it's doing OK though. I'm in to learn at the moment, winning is still a ways off I feel.
Appreciate the props!!
rock87 wrote:So you say they had stolen your work?, sorry but checking the amount of awards in their webpage and the quality and amount of images they sell in different places its hard for me to believe they copy your work and not the other way. Have you checked their prints and decals in places like dreamstime, etsy or veer?, you can click on links at right in their webpage and see all their products, they have like one thousand images in each place and all are in the same style, so they copy everything to you?. Is there some way to see your work online?, the store you talk about maybe?.
The styles are similar in some instances. That could be due to having shared inspiration, as many artists look to older art for ideas and to help develop their own style. Look at how common Art Nouveau elements are even today for one example.
That said, accusing an artist of ripping off another's work (as noted before) is a big deal. If you feel you have evidence, use the Tattle button above the image and report it to Woot directly.
As far as this image goes, there's definitely something hinky going on, but I don't know whose art came first. I hope it's grrlmarvel as I've always liked Rachel's work, but ultimately that's Woot's decision.
GMV in the meantime!

In "Image/Mode" convert it to "grayscale," but make the spot colors Black and white, before you do. Then, convert to "Image/Mode/Bit Map." It will prompt you for "halftone screen" specs. Choose "30 lines per inch" or a smaller number (30 or less), choose lines or dots, and then convert it back to grayscale.
Duplicate the layer and delete the locked layer. Then covert it to RGB mode and then "color select" the opposite color of what you want to keep and delete it (Black if you want to keep white or Vise versa). Select/inverse select and adjust brightness & contrast to 100%. While still selected, use a large brush to color it to the desired color. Select all and cut and paste it back into your artwork, then align it. Done.
Walmazan has posted a detailed video of the entire process and I found it quite helpful. He's a real genius at this stuff and makes it look so easy. But, if you have any questions, feel free to email me @ email@example.com
I hope this helped.

"I was pleasantly surprised when I entered your casino – it didn't have that stale smell of typical casinos and it was very busy yet the employees smiled and greeted me as if they knew me. The MACHINES were even fair – I saw jackpots being paid right and left!" – Meredith, Las Vegas

Extension Specific Extensions are considered extensions that require another extension to be installed in order to run.
Example: "Category filter for K2" or "Product search for Virtuemart"
If you need to re-brand an old extension and avoid conflicts in installed sites please talk with JED team first. After choosing the new name:
Note: If #1 or #2 are not possible on compatibility with installed sites please include the new name in the description tag or in a comments line at your XML file.

Remedy Lane by Pain of Salvation.
The first time I listened to it I was stunned and simply sat silently for a few moments to let it soak in.
It's also the inspiration for my title.

I don't have Road Salt 1, but I want to get it. I currently have Remedy Lane, Be and Scarsick. I don't remember the title of the track, but on Be there was a track with "God's answering machine" that they set up for people to call and leave a message for god. I'm not religious at all, however I found that track to be very touching.
Currently listening to ABIII by Alter Bridge.

I'm loving the Mastodon album - shorter and more straight to the point songs than CtS, but a great album.
October 6th, 2011, 01:10 AM #330
@west & cb - a big hell ya on the new Opeth and Mastodon.
Superb albums. Love the direction taken on Opeth. Ballsy move. Kind of a fusion between the direction taken with Damnation added with a Prog Rock sensibility. The kind of album only Opeth could pull off and still, somehow, make it feel metal.
Mastodon - The Hunter has been a blast. Mastodon was on Letterman tonight. They did Curl of the Burl.

Puppies for Sale
If you are looking for Boston Terrier puppies for sale, you should never miss the opportunity to discover what we have to offer. Indeed, while we at Purebred Breeders do not sell such adorable pooches directly, a network of trustworthy Boston Terrier dog breeders who make it a point to prescreen every pup that they sell using our website as an advertising hub. You would also be pleased to know that we offer a 10 year guarantee to those who opt to get a canine companion through our website. Essentially, finding Boston Terrier dogs for sale is as easy as visiting Purebred Breeders.
The Boston Terrier's roots is far from a mystery. It is a widely known fact among breeding enthusiasts that it was during the 1800s that the Boston Terrier came to be. Specifically, it was Robert C. Hooper who combined an English Terrier - English Bulldog cross with another dog of unknown type and came up with a new breed that was called the "Bull Terrier". Given that the name "Bull Terrier" is also used to refer to another breed of dog, those with canine companions that come from the line that began with the offspring of Robert C. Hooper's dogs deemed it necessary to coin the name "Boston Terrier".
The Boston Terrier does reflect the appearance of both Bulldogs and Terriers to a degree. Their face is quite similar to that of a Bulldog's, especially due to the presence of a short muzzle. The Boston Terrier's frame on the other hand, resembles that of a Terrier. In this sense, it is no longer surprising why the Boston Terrier only has a maximum height of 15 inches and merely weighs 25 pounds at most. In terms of coat colors, the aforesaid kind of pooch comes in three different types, namely black, reddish, and brindle.
Experienced dog owners agree that not all Boston Terriers share the same personality, some pooches would prefer to spend a relaxing afternoon indoors while others would be more than eager to spend hours playing outdoors. It should be emphasized however, that all Boston Terriers thrive on their owner's attention. As a matter of fact, they have a unique trait in relation to their temperament: it is more than willing to adjust its mood depending on its master's feelings. Indeed, it would be appropriate to say that unlike most dogs, the Boston Terrier truly understands people's emotions.
Given its various admirable traits, the Boston Terrier is a top-notch canine companion. For one, the Boston Terrier is more than capable of entertaining a child, as it has enough energy and patience to keep up with a kid's curiosity and playfulness. Aside from this, Boston Terriers are truly proficient in keeping people calm and happy, which is the main reason why such pooches are often seen in nursing homes keeping the elderly occupied. All in all, whether for the purpose of therapy or companionship, getting a Boston Terrier is a wise course of action.

There are levels of Trek fandom, never more apparent during the week of Star Trek Into Darkness' release. The causal viewer knows the names of the main characters, has seen a handful of episodes from all of the various series and caught each big screen adaptation as they've hit theaters. True "Trekkers" take it to the next level, absorbed in creator Gene Roddenberry's Utopian vision. They dress up in Federation-approved uniforms, debate the details of the franchise's mythology, and make their own treks to annual conventions.
But it can get even more hardcore. Take Steve Nighteagle, who is currently in the process of turning his home into a replica of the U.S.S. Enterprise. The results are something to behold.
"I work on it 7 1/2 months out of year!" Nighteagle tells DestasaBlog. The interior makeover seems to be partially out of love for Trek, partially out of a need for an all-consuming hobby. "Without filling in the rest of the year doing sci-fi I would be like a lot of folks who sit in a chair watching the boob tube. Too many years like that would put me in the grave!"
Nighteagle's investment in Trek lore is especially apparent when he describes watching the franchise's second theatrical installment, The Wrath of Khan, for the first time. "When Spock died…I couldn't believe it! I knew Leonard was very iffy about doing another movie! What was Star Trek going to do with this crew in future movies (without Spock)? It would be like eating a apple without your hands!" he says.
Click the image above or this link to get an inside look at Nighteagle's mind-blowing Star Trek house, which also includes built-in references to Duncan Jones 2009' sci-fi flick Moon. Sure, why not?

Since this is set in a more medieval time period, people, at the age of 35 or 30, would look older than people at the age of thirty and 35 do now. Harsher living and lack of medicine does that. I think they look right for the period. I mean, 35 would have been considered getting up there in age. People often died at 40. Because these people are nobles, therefore have a bit better of a lifestyle (Though, often they did tend to eat more meat than the commoners, so they did, at times, become mal-nourished, whereas the commoners ate more vegetables and got more nutrients. . . when they ate.) they might live to 55, maybe even 60. Let's say one of the nobles does live to 55, he's going to look more like 65 or maybe even 70. He'd be considered ancient.

My first GENUINE SERIOUS QUIBBLE -
Admittedly this is a complaint about the brutal and unrewarding nature of life in general, rather than the show directly, but it has come to my attention that as soon as tonight's episode has aired in the states, US viewers will be able to immediately watch the next episode via the HBO site. This elicits a firm and throaty
from me. What are they thinking? It's stupid. It's senseless. It's not fair. And it'll screw up websites like our own dear SFFW, too. I hereby call upon all US posters to voluntarily forego the opportunity to get a week ahead, and show solidarity with your international brethren.

My biggest gripe is the under use and downplay of the dire wolves.
I understand its a fine balance of whether to use CGI, but these direwolves look more cute than dangerous.
Makes me worry when the dragons do arrive

I'm wondering if the downplaying of certain elements (the other Stark children, the direwolves, etc) are part of a deliberate misdirection so thatSpoiler:Ned's death comes as more of a shock to first-time viewers. Between the advertising prominently featuring him on the Iron Throne and the fact that Sean Bean is the biggest name in the cast, many newbies are most likely certain he's going to be the lead character going forward. Keeping the show pretty Ned-centric is a good way to really pull the rug out from under them.
May 27th, 2011, 11:40 AM #38
Oooo, I love to moan about something I love. 8D Unfortunetly, It's not that long.
1] Lack of direwolves. I know, I know, cost, blah... HIRE A DOG TRAINER FROM MY COMMUNITY CENTER, SRSLY.
2] Too much Ros. I thought she was only an early episode exposition prop, but no, SHE LIVES ON.
3] King's Landing. I have the same gripes. Come Dorne and Mireen and such It'll seem so... indifferent.
4] Generally I'd like more establishing shots.
5] More scenes for the little people and general everyday discussion/character interaction.
6] More exciting fighting wouldn't go a miss, though I am loving Arya/Syrio and the Dothraki.
7] A longer season! QAQ It's so good!
I've had no problems with vocab, actually. I always said it 'KKI-' as well, and I'm English. But people always read things differently.
Oh, and 8] More Addy. Yes, George. Just bring him back.
...I know, George.
...I don't care George, just bring him back. Loved Addy.

A question for any sociologists, economists, demographers etc who may be on the premises. In the rather maligned hunting scene, Renly said that "millions" died in Robert's War. Millions? Really? That seems far more than such a society could support, let alone lose. Am I wrong in this assumption?
May 27th, 2011, 02:15 PM #40
I'm not a sociologist, but;
Here goes.
Westeros is supposed to be the size of South America, right? Far bigger than England, in any route. That's one way I've heard - the second way is most of Western Europe, either way, bigger.
Today Millions can equate to one major city and it's districts. In those times, not so much.
In terms of army sizes - 40,000 Dothraki could pose a threat?
I seem to remember that someone only had 12,000 men at the Battle of Bosworth. The army sizes discussed for the Seven Kingdoms I don't remember, though. I'm sure Jaime didn't take too many to the Whispering Wood, but then, they did fail...
Probably just Renly being overly dramatic, though.

My only real quibble is The Others. HBO totally screwed that up.
From GOT, Pages 8 and 9
"A shadow emerged from the dark of the wood. It stood in front of Royce. Tall, it was, and gaunt and hard as old bones, with flesh pale as milk. Its armor seemed to change color as it moved, here it was white as new-fallen snow, there black as shadow, everywhere dappled with the deep grey-green of the trees. The patterns ran like moonlight on water with every step it took."
"The Other slid forward on silent feet. In its hand was a longsword like none that Will had ever seen. No human metal had gone into the forging of that blade. It was alive with moonlight, translucent, a shard of crystal so thin that it seemed almost to vanish when seen edge-on. There was a faint blue shimmer to the thing, a ghost-light that played around its edges, and somehow Will knew it was sharper than any razor."
Why HBO changed that is beyond me. Martin's description of The Others is superb. It has been so many years since I have read GOT that I forgot just how cool that section was. The HBO Others are almost comical in comparison.

But, like we heard, some cities pay tribute to the Dothraki and with them being 'uneducated savages' and all, they likely just plated or painted the stuff. xD

My biggest quibble with the series so far has been the extraneous sex/nudity scenes - such as the manscaping scene and pretty much anything with Ros. I'd count them among the weakest scenes in the series. The sex + exposition combo just made them feel silly at times, and probably undermined the information being delivered, particularly in the Littlefinger scene. That's just the influence of HBO, I suppose, and only a small downside given they have the freedom to make other, more important scenes the right way.
To be fair, an example of this done right was the Viserys/Doreah scene where they took a Tyrion/Jon conversation from the book (about the dragon skulls) and gave it to Viserys to give him more screen time. It works out since they gave Tyrion a bunch of other characters' dialogue at the Wall, such as Donal Noye's lecture about Jon's training advantage.

Discussing: Being A Discourse Upon Anarion
Being A Discourse Upon Anarion
Message: 55107

Original Post

Flicking through Unfinished Tales, I read with interest that Meneldil "was the fourth son of Anarion". However, upon checking the character bios here, it seems only Anarion only fathered one son- Meneldil. Am I missing something by not owning all the Histories of Middle Earth, or is the bio at fault, or...?

Hi Aruthir,
Umm, I'm not sure what you mean -- both Meneldil's bio and his birth entry mention that he is the fourth child....?
Meneldil of Gondor born in Númenor:
Oh! Sorry, just realized that you must be referring to Anárion's bio (henneth-annun.net/resources/bios_view.cfm?SCID=151), which has not been updated for years (you can tell, because entries upgraded in the last five or six years use colored backgrounds, blue or tan, to distinguish quotations from comments). Yes, the bio leaves out the three older, unnamed siblings and needs to be reviewed and upgraded in general.
I will put that on my to-do list for after I move, when I can hopefully spend some unrushed time online. I really miss hanging out at HASA, playing with Resources....

Erm, no, I was wrong... the bio for Anárion actually does contain the quote you mentioned:
"It is stated in unpublished annals that Meneldil was the fourth child of Anárion , that he was born in the year 3318 of the Second Age, and that he was the last man to be born in Númenor."
Unfinished Tales, Part 3, Ch 1, The Disaster of the Gladden Fields
But Meneldil's siblings are not mentioned in the "Children" section of Anárion's bio, so I will certainly fix that when I upgrade the entry.
Thanks for letting me know about this....

I don't know how the benchmark for PTS works, but I'm curious why the test result panel says "OpenSSL 1.0.0e" which is not the (recently) packaged Debian version.
Otherwise, I'd guess the cause of this is something hardware-specific, with this particular CPU not reaching full performance under this FreeBSD kernel version. I would check for anything related to CPU scaling, power draw (which is nice to see in many Phoronix benchmarks), or otherwise see if FreeBSD have already made any changes in HEAD / kfreebsd-10 relating to this hardware.

President Obama talks up Cleveland Clinic's money-saving practices, but ...
Blog Entry:
October 05, 2012 11:00 AM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
In one of his few coherent remarks during Wednesday's night debate/debacle, President Barack Obama cited the
Cleveland Clinic
as an example of how better health care is cheaper health care.
The Wall Street Journal
that it's "unlikely the Medicare cost-control board would adopt many of the practices that have lowered costs at the renowned clinic."
Why's that?
Independent Payment Advisory Board
, known as the IPAB, recommends spending cuts if Medicare's cost growth exceeds certain targets but is barred from suggesting a host of specific changes to Medicare, the federal health care program for the elderly and disabled,"
The Journal notes. "The 15-member board can reduce the rates that Medicare reimburses providers for treatments and drugs, and its proposals will take effect unless Congress comes up with an equivalent alternative."
That means it can't "ration care, increase taxes, change Medicare benefits or eligibility, increase beneficiary premiums and cost-sharing requirements, or reduce low-income subsidies under Medicare's Part D prescription drug program, according to the nonprofit Kaiser Family Foundation," the newspaper says.
"IPAB is not going to tell (a hospital) how to practice medicine. IPAB is going to say, 'Here's how we're going to pay you and you figure it out,'" says Len Nichols, a health economist at George Mason University.
Both President Obama and Mitt Romney "blurred that point in Wednesday's debate," according to
The Journal
Mr. Romney attacked the board as a panel that "can tell people ultimately what treatments they're going to receive." President Obama said the Clinic's experience shows that health care could be cheaper and better, and that the board would "institutionalize" such changes.
Clinic officials maintain that other hospitals could adopt its practices.
"A lot of what we do is transferrable," Dr. Toby Cosgrove, the Clinic's CEO, tells
The Journal
The paper notes that Dr. Cosgrove cited examples the president didn't: The Clinic places price tags on items in the operating room, making surgeons and nurses think twice about using a given piece of equipment. It also pays doctors an annual salary, lessening their incentive to perform more procedures.
Miner matter
The New Republic
takes a look
at the fundraising prowess — always for Republican candidates — of Robert Murray, CEO of Pepper Pike-based
Murray Energy Corp.
, and his employees.
"This year, Murray is one of the most important GOP players in one of the most important battleground states in the country," the magazine profile notes. "In May, he hosted a $1.7 million fundraiser for (Mitt) Romney. Employees have given the nominee more than $120,000. In August, Romney used Murray's Century Mine in the town of Beallsville for a speech attacking Barack Obama as anti-coal. This fall, scenes from that event—several dozen coal-smudged Murray miners standing behind the candidate in a tableau framed by a giant American flag and a COAL COUNTRY STANDS WITH MITT placard — have shown up in a Romney ad."
Accounts of two sources who have worked in managerial positions at the firm, and a review of letters and memos to Murray Energy employees, "suggest that coercion may also explain Murray staffers' financial support for Romney,"
The New Republic
"Murray, it turns out, has for years pressured salaried employees to give to the Murray Energy political action committee (PAC) and to Republican candidates chosen by the company," according to the story. "Internal documents show that company officials track who is and is not giving. The sources say that those who do not give are at risk of being demoted or missing out on bonuses, claims Murray denies."
The Murray Energy sources, who requested anonymity for fear of retribution, came forward separately but they painted similar pictures of the fund-raising operation.
"There's a lot of coercion," says one of them. "I just wanted to work, but you feel this constant pressure that, if you don't contribute, your job's at stake. You're compelled to do this whether you want to or not." Says the second: "They will give you a call if you're not giving. … It's expected you give Mr. Murray what he asks for."
This and that
Class acts:
Case Western Reserve University
Ohio State University
both landed on
this list
of the world's 100 best universities, compiled by
The Times
of London and Thomson Reuters.
The news organizations set out to "judge world class universities across all of their core missions — teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook." The methodology broke down this way:
Teaching: the learning environment (worth 30% of the overall ranking score)
Research: volume, income and reputation (worth 30%)
Citations: research influence (worth 30%)
Industry income: innovation (worth 2.5%)
International outlook: staff, students and research (worth 7.5%).
Ohio State was the top-ranked school in Ohio, at No. 57 globally. Case Western Reserve was ranked as the world's 93rd-best school.
Topping the list was an elite, but unlikely, choice: the California Institute of Technology.
Making progress:
Journal Register Co.
, the newspaper company that publishes
The (Lake County) News-Herald
The (Lorain) Morning Journal
, received final court approval to borrow as much as $25 million to help fund operations while it works to sell its assets.
Journal Register last month filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. It previously filed bankruptcy in February 2009.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Stuart Bernstein in Manhattan approved the loan from existing revolving-credit lender Wells Fargo Bank NA.
The publisher, based in Yardley, Pa., listed assets of $235 million and debt of $268.6 million in Chapter 11 documents filed Sept. 5. Debt includes about $13.2 million on a revolving credit owing to Wells Fargo.

Hill re-elected in McMinnville, Terp again Yamhill mayor, other city results
Yamhill County Clerk's Office released additional election results at 1:30 p.m. Thursday. The voting now stands as follows:
* YAMHILL — Incumbent Paula Terp has defeated challenger Chuck Mitchell, 234 votes, or 52 percent, to 215 votes, or 48 percent.
Earlier, the two were tied with 159 votes each.
Terp was elected mayor for the first time two years ago after eight years on the city council. Mitchell served as mayor more than a decade ago and hopes to return to the position.
* McMINNVILLE — In the race for McMinnville Ward One council seat incumbent Scott Hill has defeated political newcomer Nicholas Scyoc. With only a few ballots remaining, the count is now 1,714 to 996, or 63 percent to 37 percent.
Scyoc, a veteran, is set to graduate from Western Oregon Universtiy with a degree in policy administration and an appetite for politics.
Hill, a banker, is finishing his second term on the council. He served on the city budget committee for several years before that.
* AMITY — Amity Mayor Michael Cape was on his way to returning to office for two more years.
He has 262 votes, as of 1:30 p.m. today. Trailing far behind were Rudy van Soolen at 129 and Sharon Haggith at 105.
Cape, who has lived in Amity for 10 years, drives a school bus and substitute teaches in the private Santiam Christian school system, north of Corvallis at Adair Village. He also owns Abigail's Barbeque and Catering.
He served on the city council before being approved to serve out the remainder of Bob Wiro's term of mayor when Wiro resigned in 2006. He was elected to a full four-year term in 2008.
Haggith has no political experience.
Van Soolen currently sits on the city council, but his term expires at the end of this year. He could possibly return by appoointment.
* DUNDEE — Jeanette Adlong, with 877 votes, and J. Randal Reddell, with 709, are winning re-election to the Dundee City Council.
Newcomer Tim Weaver also will be seated on the council, with 893 votes. Gabi Hinoveanu received 468 votes according to results released by the Yamhill County Clerk's Office at 1:30 this afternoon.
* LAFAYETTE — Four candidates are vying for three open council seats.
Incumbents Chris Pagella, with 538 votes, and Marie Sproul, with 575, are facing challengers Tim Hamel, with 479 votes, and Chris Harper, with 783. So Harper, Sproul and Pagella will be seated.
* WILLAMINA — In the race for a four-year term on the city council, Ila Skyberg had 414 votes from Polk and Yamhill County residents to Gary Hill's 305, Rita Baller's 265 and Allan Bramall's 256.
Skyberg, Baller and Bramall are the incumbents. It would appear Skyberg and Hill have secured seats on the council, but with ballots still outstanding, the race between Baller and Bramall is too close to call.
Corey Adams ran unopposed for mayor. He currently serves on the city council, so his seat will be filled by appointment, as will another open seat.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl Summary
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl Review
Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl is an ambitious title from GSC, one that succeeds and amazes in some areas but almost horridly trips and stumbles along in others.
Latest news
West Games "trying to steal money" with unauthorised S.T.A.L.K.E.R. campaign, says GSC Game World
Valentine Yeltyshev is back with S.T.A.L.K.E.R. creator GSC Game World, having left for a while to pursue other goals. Now the studio is back up and running and is working on its next project.
Will it be another S.T.A.L.K.E.R.? What's definitely not another entry into the series is 'STALKER: Apocalypse', says the public relations director. That's a 'scam' by West Games who've 'no expertise' with the IP.
Team behind S.T.A.L.K.E.R successor now facing legal action
Well that escalated quickly. No sooner had West Games' Kickstarter campaign for a planned "spiritual successor" to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl begun, than the team were facing accusations of false claims and possible legal action.
The key issue is whether West Games lied about their members being former developers from S.T.A.L.K.E.R creators GSC Game World.
Former S.T.A.L.K.E.R developers unite to create the ultimate post-apocalyptic shooter
West Games, a new studio founded by former members of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. creators GSC World and 4A Games, are creating what they describe as "the definitive spiritual successor" to the cult post apocalyptic shooter.
Project Areal will be West Games' first title, set in a huge open world filled with a variety of mutated creatures intent on eating your eyeballs for dinner.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R series latest to avoid GameSpy server shutdowns
The post-apocalyptic survival series S.T.A.L.K.E.R is the latest to survive the GameSpy server shutdowns, with a new Steam patch moving the multiplayer servers for every incarnation of the series over to developers GSC Gameworld's own.
If you don't own the games on Steam you can manually download the patch, which affects all editions, on the series' official website.
Newly released Lost Alpha mod restores cut levels to S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Shadow of Chernobyl came out for PC back in 2007, but a long development time with several delays and problems meant that some content was cut from the final release. Now a group of fans have released the Lost Alpha mod, six years in the making, which restores those cut levels and adds new features and improvements.

I love this ring! The ring shipped fast and is as beautiful as I hoped it would be. Sparkles, nice weight and width. Pairing it with my wedding ring as an anniversary band. Really happy and would recommend this ring!
The ring is pretty, but arrived with a stone missing. The bizarre return process has left me somewhat disheartened. I have to pay for the return myself, and then get reimbursed. They won't provide a return label at all. Received as a gift, so the person who sent it to me has to return it on the card they used to purchase in order for reimbursement to happen. Seriously lacking in sensitivity and customer service.
I found a very similiar ring at a jewelry store for triple the cost. It's not "blingy" but a great ring, nonetheless.
I wanted something elegant and simple I could always wear. I am active and not a big ring person. However wanted something nicer than a plain band. This fits the bill nicely and the price is more than worth the quality. The band is thick and comfortable to wear. Would recommend.
I am getting married this summer and can't wait to show off this beautiful ring. The quality and craftsmanship exceeded my expectations. Simply stunning!
Just received my ring in the mail and it is beautiful. I love the comfortable fit as well as the smoother surface so it doesn't snag on anything. Just the perfect amount of bling!
This ring met all of my expectations. Unique, lots of sparkle, and high quality. It's worn daily, and gets many compliments. I'll certainly purchase jewelry from Overstock again.
Unfortunately this ring did not meet my expectations and I sent this back a day later. The ring lacked sparkle and I found the stones to be much smaller than expected. I was not expecting rocks in the setting but not quite as small as they actually were. Therefore I decided not keep it and returned it. I gave this piece 3 stars because I liked the style and it may suit another person's style.
I purchased this after having a wedding set stolen. I wanted something "low" but still a bit flashy and only wanted a wedding band. I absolutely love it, and have received lots of comments about how beautiful and unique it is.
This ring is perfect! I didn't want something too "blingy" when we were picking out my ring. I also wanted something with some width. I was going to use this ring as the engagement and wedding ring. However, after getting it I decided I wanted more to go with it. We then ordered 2 diamond bands to go on each side of it. I thought I would want to wear this ring alone sometimes, and then wear the other 2 bands with it at other times. However, after getting both diamond bands and seeing how good they looked with it, I ended up getting all 3 sautered together for a fairly wide band. All in all, I would definitely buy this ring again from Overstock. Quality is great and I get compliments on it ALL the time!

Struggling to find a flight? You're not flying solo
Blog Entry:
May 08, 2013 10:22 AM | Author: SCOTT SUTTELL
Does it seem as though you're having a tougher time finding flights from
Cleveland Hopkins International Airport
? You're not imaging things.
"A decade of restructuring in the U.S. airline industry has produced a sharp reduction in air service that is curtailing traveler choice and some local economies even as it improves the industry's health, new research shows," according to
this story
The Wall Street Journal
The newspaper says the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
study shows that from 2007 through last year, U.S. airlines cut the number of scheduled domestic flights by 14%.
"Among the hardest hit were the nation's 35 midsize airports, as defined by the government, where carriers cut 26% of their scheduled flights in the five-year period," according to the story. "The cuts affected airports such as Palm Beach, Fla., Cleveland, Kansas City, Mo., and Oakland, Calif. Some are offering financial incentives —reduced landing fees, lower gate rentals and revenue guarantees — to attract new flights."
This data set
reveals the extent of the changes.
At Hopkins, for example, there were 79,574 departures in 2012, down 25.8% from 107,290 in 2007. The number of seats was down 23.6%, to 5.66 million in 2012 from 7.4 million in 2007.
Akron-Canton Airport
, while considerably smaller than Hopkins, in some respects bucked the national trends. Its number of departures was down just 4%, to 12,426 in 2012 from 12,962 in 2007, but the number of seats rose 15.8% to 1.14 million.
Powering down
FirstEnergy Corp.
hired an adviser
and "started implementing its plan to sell up to 1,240 megawatts of unregulated non-core hydro generation assets," Reuters reports.
The utility company did not identify the hydro plants to be sold but wants to complete the sale in the second half of the year, FirstEnergy CEO Anthony Alexander said during the company's first-quarter earnings call.
Mr. Alexander said FirstEnergy plans to use the proceeds of the hydro sale to reduce debt, though he did not estimate how much the hydro plants were worth, according to Reuters.
The news service says FirstEnergy owns several unregulated hydro facilities in Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Virginia, including part of the 3,003-MW Bath County pumped storage plant in Virginia, and the 451-MW Seneca pumped storage plant and 52-MW Lake Lynn hydro plant in Pennsylvania.
One megawatt powers about 1,000 homes, Reuters notes.
FirstEnergy first announced it was looking to sell the competitive hydro plants in February.
In it for the long term
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co.
is about to open its impressive new headquarters, an effort to revive its old space "marks the latest attempt (by developers) to repurpose large corporate headquarters that have grown obsolete,"
The Wall Street Journal
Such properties "are sprinkled throughout the country, particularly in the East and Midwest, left behind by companies that have gone out of business, were acquired or moved as they adapted to change," according to the newspaper.
Stuart Lichter, the developer of Goodyear's new building, "as part of the deal got the company's aging corporate palace, which includes a 1,786-seat theater, a 5,000-seat basketball arena and a 'mahogany row' of wood-framed executive offices,"
The Journal
says. (The old headquarters is about a half-mile away from the new one.)
Mr. Lichter, president of California-based
Industrial Realty Group LLC
, is "planning to convert the 1.7 million-square-foot hodgepodge of brick and concrete buildings into hotel rooms, housing, modern office space and other uses," according to the story. "He is planning to start this summer on a 130-room hotel, about 100 rental apartments, a theater and other work with a total price tag of $148 million."
However, the paper says it "isn't clear how much demand there would be for his planned 800,000 square feet of office space in the Rust Belt city that has seen its population fall to 198,000 from its peak of 290,000 in 1960."
Mr. Lichter tells
The Journal
, "It's going to take us some time. I don't think we're going to fill 800,000 square feet in a year."
We like to watch
Clevelanders like their live TV, but they're also fond of the DVR and TiVo.
That's one takeaway from
USA Today
about a new Nielsen study of media habits in 25 major U.S. cities, including Cleveland.
Among the findings:
Live TV viewing "is most prevalent in Baltimore, Philadelphia and Midwestern cities including Pittsburgh, Detroit, Cleveland and St. Louis, where viewers spent an average of more than 5 hours a day watching live TV according to the study, conducted in February." But St. Louis residents and Clevelanders "spent the most time watching time-shifted TV, nearly an hour a day."
San Franciscans were most likely to own iPads and other tablet devices: 36% of homes there did in February, Nielsen says, followed closely by Boston with 35% and Washington, D.C., where one in three residents had one. Use of iPads was lowest in Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Phoenix, where 10% or fewer use them.
Smart phones are most popular in Houston, where 76% of residents ages 13 and older own one, followed by Dallas (73%), Washington and Sacramento (72%), Miami (71%) and Los Angeles and San Francisco (70%).
Video on demand, which enables viewers to time-shift viewing without a DVR, has been slower to catch on, but is most prevalent in Dallas and Detroit, and least so in Charlotte and Los Angeles.

text: The 1800XtT was a direct replacement for my Winemate. The installation was easy. Do buy the mounting clips. It's curious that they are offered as an option instead of just being included with your purchase. I'm mechanically inclined and I would not attempt installing the unit without them (not worth the hassle). The system cooled my 440 bottle cellar with glass doors that I had loaded with about 150 bottles in less than four hours. The digital display is easy to use and I have it set at 57 degrees. I store the unit in my garage and it's surprisingly quieter than I had expected. During the heat of the day it typically cycles on and off every fifteen minutes. I also purchased the optional air filter that magnetically attaches to the rear of the unit. The magnetic strips that hold the frame onto the unit hold, but barely. If you're looking for maximum longevity of the unit seems like cheap insurance to me. All in all I'm very pleased with the performance of the 1800XT.

Mandatory glib dep? Ew.
Phoronix: QEMU 0.15 Brings Several New Features
Replacing QEMU 0.14, which was released back in February, is now QEMU 0.15. This new major update to this open-source processor emulator that's commonly used with KVM (the Linux Kernel-based Virtual Machine) delivers on several prominent features...
Mandatory glib dep? Ew.
With new releases from QEMU and VirtualBox, and Xen finally making it into the kernel, I think it's time for a virtualization comparison
The commit mentioned two things, tests and threading in virtio-p9. Why do you believe all users should be penalized for a developer use case (tests), or a small minority (plan 9)?

As read at http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?pag...r&d=2010-01-05"shane2peru: stuff is going on over there at ATI and they started dropping support for Linux drivers"
What does that mean?!
It's only a matter of time
The closed source driver should be considered as a stop-gap solution for temporarily providing half-as'd video drivers on linux. It is really a windoze driver that has been wrapped in a bunch of layers of crud to make it sort-of work in linux.
The real linux drivers are open source. And that is where a huge part of their linux strategy lies. Now naturally, going from nothing to everything can't be an instantaneous move -- it is and has been a big game of catch of with years of neglect by ATI. The changes really started back in 06 when ATI got swallowed up by the much more benevolent AMD. ATI, back before 06, had a serious crackhead problem. They didn't offer much (if anything AT ALL) in the way of documentation that could be used by open source driver developers -- and this went on for years. They are now starting to catch up with the backlog. Everything up to R700 is more-or-less working. There are some major architectural changes in the pipeline, but the big stuff has been done. R800 shouldn't take nearly as long as it took for R600/R700 due to the similarities and **relatively** small backlog of stuff that needs to be done first.
To translate that all into a concise answer to your concern, NO, AMD is NOT dropping linux support. AMD is ADVANCING linux support far beyond anything previously imagined. AMD is building itself into the STRONGEST position of support by ANY graphics vendor in terms of linux support. What they have is strong hardware (unlike intel, which has WEAK hardware) combined with a very good to excellent -- and quickly improving -- out-of-the-box experience (unlike nvidia, which refuses to provide the documentation required for real open source drivers, and thus provides a VERY VERY BAD out-of-the-box experience).
You see, the big question is this:
You have two vendors with hardware that *just works* when you install *any* linux distro (intel and AMD), and you have two vendors which have decent hardware performance (AMD and Nvidia). Which one would you choose? I would choose the ONLY one that happens to be BOTH.
To be fair, supporting OS drivers wouldn't have been wise for the company when it was just ATI. Large Companies aren't about pleasing the moral agenda of linux users, they're about making money. With any company, linux users get what they want if and only if it somehow makes the company money.
Providing documentation and drivers is a huge effort. If you read bridgman's posts between the lines, you'll get an understanding just how many people are involved and how expensive their OS efforts actually are.
What would ATI have had to gain from that investment? It could have shifted the sales numbers slightly within the linux desktop market, which is maybe ~2% of the entire desktop market. Altogether, it could have increased their market share by what? Maybe 0.5%? Hardly worth spending millions.
It's probably the same reason with nVidia. They have drivers that are good enough to please most linux users, their market share would increase even less if they provided proper OS drivers. Not worth the effort. If there's anything nVidia has to worry about, it's not a handful of linux users not buying their cards any more.
Now why did AMD/ATI decide to start an effort towards documentation and OS drivers? For the same reason they bought ATI in the first place: integrated platforms with joined CPU/GPU combinations (i.e. Fusion). If they want to sell netbooks, smartphones, HTPCs, HD recorders and others with their hardware, there has to be good linux support, which can only mean OS drivers.
The current linux users are basically guinea pigs to test the new drivers, increased linux sales and reputation being just a nice side effect. AMD as a company doesn't care much about us [1], they care about future Fusion sales. But that's fine with me, I'd be happy to be a guinea pig once evergreen starts being supported
[1] of course, those involved with the linux program care very much, they're doing a good job. Current linux users just don't play a major role in the company's long-term strategy, the OEMs choosing Fusion for their products do. Because that's where the real money is.
Then it is not a long term strategyCurrent linux users just don't play a major role in the company's long-term strategy
Who can say that linux won't be the primary application development platform for hand-held devices like google's nexus one or nokia's linux based devices? Or the primary web design platform for WebGL? Then many of the today's linux desktop users will become app or webgl developers for those platforms (which includes opengl based graphics design). What would they think before building their next machine?
"Hmm yeah AMD's linux support is crap but I hope it will get better in the future"?
Its not logical for a long term strategy to be this* blind...
this year i will buy my 5. amd/ati cart in just 3 years now.
over 3 years now the linux support Grows strongly.
the real diverence nvidia vs amd is really smal only on smal CPU's you can feel the diverence @ viedeo acceleration.
on an strong quatcore workstation there is no problem play a fucking viedeo.
Oh, the laptop runs fine under fedora 12 with a nvidia card, while the desktop computer with it's ati card is randomly crashing if I choose the bad app...
Company of Heroes, steam version, wine 1.1.35 & wine 1.1.31, catalyst 9.12, HD4850.
I've also tried under ubuntu with packaged wine & fglrx, the game does not start if I try to raise graphical details a little and I have GLSL errors if shaders are enabled. Under fedora, the game start but Xorg is completely freezed when the first frame is rendered.

Leprechaun Hat Christmas Ornaments
Personalized Christmas Ornament
Feeling like you have the luck 'o the Irish? This glass ball embodies the many shades of green on the Emerald Isle. The front depicts a green polka dotted top hat with black band and gold buckle with a lucky shamrock tucked into the band and the back has the words BEST OF LUCK! permanently on it. The top is tied with a green ribbon. A great gift for anyone who could use a little luck, someone of Irish descent or for anyone who had a splendid time visiting Ireland and kissing the blarney stone at Blarney Castle!
Comes with the matching gift box shown which makes it ready for giving!
Material: Glass Ball
Ornaments shown on our site are personalized, as examples only, so you can see where we put the words/names you give us. Some ornaments allow you to select hair or uniform color. If there is no color choice, it is not available on that particular ornament. We will do everything possible to catch any mistakes in spelling, etc., but are not responsible if we do as you request, and it is then not correct. The ornament you see above is the way it will look when you get it, except for the personalizing instructions you give us and any optional attributes you select.

Pay attention to the bold text, noob ..
And stop being so offensive, it's like the only reason you're posting is to insult nvidia .. Maybe it's true though ..!
Btw, do you know nouveau relies heavily on nvidia closed driver? What do you think they are reverse engineering?
Improvements to nvidia driver can help nouveau. So shut your trap and stop being a hateful idiot ^_^
Keep it up nouveau guys, I know those imbeciles don't represent you ..
Michael, you banned Qaridarium but you won't ban this asshole asdx? He doesn't do anything but troll and generally being an asshole in the forums. No one should tolerate this moron period.
I'm glad Nvidia doesn't release the specs or help nouveau garbage, if it makes retards like asdx go full retard, all the better.
Michael, if you're looking for votes on banning scumbags, banning this guy gets my vote.
I'd also like to note that i wasted my first post as a member on making a statement about fools on the internet. I don't care about your closed vs open source grievance, I care about how you conduct yourself when the matter comes up. In this case, like a child.
It's fun to see that asdx has got a splitted personality that can even rant against himself
Publishes AMD "all" specifications (specifications of its new technology)? Or AMD only published specifications of old technologies and models that they plan to leave without support?
Well, we know that AMD is an expert in quickly drop support for graphic card models. Maybe they release specs only when it suits them.
Did they have taken advantage those specifications with AMD/ATI free driver "radeonhd"?
Of course, I think it would be better if nVidia published some of its specifications. But at least they give good support in their proprietary drivers. Actually I do not know if "good support" is well expressed. Maybe just "better support" than AMD.
Seriously, neither many others, I wouldn't insult you if you took some anger management sessions and learnt to actually converse. Btw, is it really insulting when it's the truth.
And nvidia at least gives good closed support. Someone else doesn't really give good support in any way ..
