Average finish time less than 7h? For a full length game?
Dear god, Valve is worse than I thought.
dropped episodic model. Edit: So I have to wait for 2080 "full length" H-L3 instead for 2008 Episode 3 :(
For the record though, valve previously gave portal away for free (and probably still do unless you've got an Intel graphics card), currently give Team Fortress 2 away for free, claim to be giving away DOTA2 for free, and, I suspect, will give L4D away for free for too (as its the linux lauch title, and not super new). When steam comes to linux (and the games get ported) theres almost no excuse for not trying them unless you really hate first person games (which dota2 isnt). They're all relativly modern, and 90%+ games.

Q&A Open Forum
Jimmy Akin was born in Texas and grew up nominally Protestant. At age 20 he experienced a profound conversion to Christ. Planning on becoming a Protestant pastor or seminary professor, Jimmy started an intensive study of the Bible, but the more he immersed himself in Scripture, the more he found it to support the Catholic faith. He entered the Church in 1992. His conversion story, "A Triumph and a Tragedy," is published in the book Surprised By Truth.
Akin is Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, a member on the Catholic Answers Speakers Bureau, a weekly guest on the global radio program, Catholic Answers LIVE, a contributing editor for Catholic Answers Magazine, and the author of numerous publications, including the books Mass Confusion, The Salvation Controversy, The Fathers Know Best, and Mass Revision.
His personal blog is www.jimmyakin.com.
"Confused about annulments? Think they're just a Catholic ""divorce"" in disguise? Many people have questions about annulments but aren't sure where to turn for the answers. Jimmy Akin, apologist for Catholic Answers, has taken on the task of providing a concise, understandable booklet about annulments, written in question-and-answer format. Whether your question is a basic one or delves into a more specific case, Akin covers the broad range of issues that fall under the topic of annulments. His brief overview will give you a clear understanding of what is involved in annulments, including the basics, the grounds for annulments, the concerns people have, and particular cases."

Santa on Silk - 1915 St. Nick - Dated 2015 Christmas Ornaments
Personalized Christmas Ornament
Jolly old St. Nick is depicted on this image from 1915. You can almost hear a "Ho, ho, ho!" as he greets children all over the world on Christmas Eve.(2015 is on the back) This wondeful depiction of Santa Claus is one of the collection of dated Silk Santa ornaments that we carry. The image of a famous painting of St. Nick from 1915 is replicated on silk and adhered to the front of a glass ball, framed by a border of gold thread. On the back the dated is stamped in golden glitter and the glittered scroll work on the sides and back is covered in glitter. GLASS BALLS COME IN ASSORTED COLORS, SO WE WILL CHOOSE FOR YOU!
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.

Tribute to Teo Macero - May 18th at NYU
May 13, 2008. Posted by Joshua Jackson.Add new comment | Filed under: analog, brian eno, compositions, electric style, guest soloists, jazz orchestra, jazz program, loewe, master manipulators, Masters, miles davis, Notes, nyu, razor blade, saxophonist, semi retirement, sessions, sonic tapestry
Long before the digital era and its master manipulators - Brian Eno, J Dilla et al - producer Teo Macero was splicing analog reels from various Miles Davis sessions, creating the sonic tapestry of Miles' early electric style. The saxophonist, composer, and master of the razor blade will be remembered at a memorial service this Sunday, May 18 at NYU's Loewe Theatre, 35 West 4th Street, from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. The event is open to the public.
Macero spent his later years in semi-retirement, occasionally helping the NYU Jazz Program. He produced two CD's with the NYU Jazz Orchestra featuring his original compositions. Special guest soloists will join the NYU Jazz Orchestra for the memorial.
Pledge Poetry on National Limerick Day
May 12, 2008. Posted by Joshua Jackson.Add new comment | Filed under: Riff
Ever wonder how we pass the time during these pledge drives? Well, today is a great example of what happens when the pledges are trickling in at a slower pace than we would like. It happens to be National Limerick Day, as well as the birthday of the masterfully nonsensical Edward Lear. Michael Bourne, our resident wordsmith, has crafted the following for your amusement (and co-host Andrew Meyer's chocolate-loving bemusement):
There once was a fellow named Meyer
who looked at a funeral pyre,
said "given a choice, I
would much rather die
eating chocolate, not burned in a fire!"
The fun continued offline, when I challenged Michael Bourne to create a haiku:
another fund drive -
gird my verbal loins again,
blather my ass off
Which begs the question: Does anyone out there have some WBGO poetry to share?
It can be fundraiser related or not. We accept haiku, limericks, terza rima, Petrarchan or Shakespearean sonnet style, free verse. Basically anything. Just keep it clean, will ya?

Family, pets safely escape Lebanon house fire Cause believed to be electrical
Thursday, January 10, 2013
LEBANON, Maine — The Lebanon Fire Department continues to investigate the cause of a fire at a single-family home early this morning on Little River Road, but officials say they believe the cause to be electrical in nature.
Asst. Rescue Chief Jason Cole wrote in a press release the six-person family was displaced and one of the parents originally called in the fire.
"The homeowner started to smell smoke in her house and then the smoke alarms started going off. She was able to safely get all of the occupants and the families pet out to a vehicle to stay warm while emergency crews were en route to the scene," Cole said. "Fortunately there were no injuries. The homeowner did a great job staying calm and getting her four small children and the other adult outside safely."
Wood said it is not uncommon to see more fires this time of year, with people continuously heating their homes. He urged residents to have their electrical checked out on a periodic basis and to be safe when working in home wood stoves, too.
"Just make sure (the workings) are in good shape," Wood said.

i know! i don't have to worry about waking up at 4 a.m for work the day after haha
i know! i don't have to worry about waking up at 4 a.m for work the day after haha
'07, '08, '09, '10, '11, '12 w1, '13 w2..
About fucking time. Can you tell I'm bitter?!
northside groove...southside groove....eastside groove...westside groove
I'll go to Crystal Method if it's a live set.
Per PC2-Violence's orders, I went to Monarch on Saturday to see Nick Warren and Herman Cattaneo do a b2b set, was anybody else there?
I still have not been to Monarch. How is it? How was the show?
I dug it, sound is pretty solid, the bass definitely thumps.
The set was fucking great. I'm not even sure what genre these dj's are, but to me it sound like a mix of progressive, and club bangers. They had some fucking jams, but they didn't bring it all the way down to some melodic/trancey/singing bullshit in between the bangers. They kept a solid groove going throughout the duration of their set. I had a great time. And I was half offended and half flattered by how drunk the female bartender tried to get me. Heavy pours, and she interpreted my last call, "water" as a "one more." Oy.
Ha! Awesome. With the CM show being on a Saturday I am definitely going to make it out there even if it is a DJ set. Always been a fan.
Who is going to the Presets tomorrow night?
I'm meeting my buddy at the Presets, but I don't think he is showing until after 9:30pm if he even shows at all. I may be flying solo for this one, which I haven't done in a long time for a show.
Fresh off his "JUICY AUSTRALIA TOUR"
Oh and James Blake on 10/25/13 at Crescent Ballroom.
Fresh off his "JUICY AUSTRALIA TOUR"
How much are Presets tix?
Looks like $33 day of.
Fresh off his "JUICY AUSTRALIA TOUR"
Attendance: 100 people +/- ?
guy in line said security quoted about 200 tickets sold. so....light crowd.
Tell me about the Presets, how was it?
Too buzy getting laid, zzizzy?
There weren't that many people there, but everyone was dancing. The crowd was so loose that mid way through the Presets set I walked between the crowd and was 1 person back from the rail without even touching anyone and still had a couple feet of space around me to groove. They played a lot of songs off their new album, Pacifica, and played all the songs I wanted to hear off of Apocalypso. It was really fun, and I had a great time especially with the space to get down and everyone around me getting down.
The area at Marquee between the bar and the venue where they used to sell merch wide open now so that's kind of cool...but the bathrooms were under construction and all they had were 4 portopotties out front for the whole crowd, so it smelled horrible outside as you walked into the Marquee.
Fresh off his "JUICY AUSTRALIA TOUR"
Dang, did they knock the whole wall down, or just remove the merch area to open it up a little bit?
They knocked the whole wall down. And Dylan, you missed out -- I had 2 free tickets and put one up on Facebook. Even mentioned you in the thread.
I'm so glad I went last night. I thought today was going to be hell at work (surprisingly & happily wrong on that front) and that I was going to need a good night's rest. Didn't happen, got like 4.5 hours of sleep, but they were just so goddamn awesome I couldn't tear myself away. It's too bad the show was on a Monday because the crowd would have been even more off the hook had it been on the weekend. (Although maybe that's why the crowd was so awesome, because it was the people committed to actually seeing them instead of just looking for something to do on a Friday/Saturday night.) The only demerits would be for a couple of songs that were really stupid, which I was unfamiliar with & thus must be from their new album.
Dragonette were surprisingly decent, too, although I think they could've cut their set short by at least 2 songs. Started getting old after a while.
You're lying. I just checked, and I don't have any notifications.
Anyway, I'm glad you had fun, and that's pretty fucking awesomet that they knocked the wall down.
"IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Brain surgery leads THE CRYSTAL METHOD to announce that they are delaying the release of their fifth studio album.
Per doctors orders following recent brain surgery, Scott Kirkland will remain under home medical treatment. As a result the release of the bands upcoming studio album has been delayed and their summer tour dates have been postponed or cancelled.
Scott Kirkland has prepared the following statement regarding his current medical situation and future plans:
"Many months ago I started experiencing short, but painful headaches. Thinking they were related to too many flights (or one too many flights of tequila), I didnt think too much about it, but during my annual checkup I mentioned the headaches to my doctor. She recommended a brain MRI. Scary, but No big deal, right???
Well, thankfully no tumors, but the MRI did find something called a benign posterior fossa arachnoid cyst, which normally would be left alone and monitored with future MRIs. That diagnosis worked for me because Ken and I were busy putting the finishing touches on our self-titled studio album that would be followed up by a big summer tour.
I was referred to the very talented University of Southern California brain surgeon Dr. Chen, who evaluated the diagnosis and explained that complications with my cyst could arise due to my tendency to get a little excited on stage. He recommended surgery.
A date was set for extraction of said cyst and on April 11, 2013, I was given a dose of the good stuff. A few hours later I came to with a well-sutured hole four-and-a-half inches long in the back of my head and a pain that was only appeased by a round of pharmies. After a few days in the hospital, I got to go home and a week later I felt good enough to join Ken in the studio for a couple of hours on two consecutive days. Some of you might have seen the picture on our Facebook page.
Just when I thought I was on the mend, I contracted an infection and, due to complications, I ended up back in the hospital where I spent most of my next 10 days in ICU dealing with a painful lumbar spinal drain, aka a Spinal Tap.
Pain that seemed to be set on 11 held me hostage for the first 24 hours. The line from the movie Spinal Tap"Given the history of Spinal Tap drummers, uh, in the past, do you have any fears, uh, for your life?"made me laugh a few times, but all in all it was not fun.
Finally, this past week I got home to my wonderful family and a healthy supply of antibiotics that automatically dose me every four hours intravenously, and will continue to do so for the next few weeks.
I'm itching to get back in the studio and finish mixing the last two tracks for what is an amazing record with Ken, but I recognize my need to rest until I get the thumbs up for a return to work from Dr. Chen.
I cant tell you how frustrating it is for me that my health has made us postpone the release of the new record and cancel a summer full of amazing shows. But I am fully intending to be back in the studio in a couple of weeks with Ken, and our agents are starting to work on putting together new shows for the fall.
Love you all and Keep Hope Alive,
I just changed it to Public, not that it does any good now.

You might not have heard of Chromium?
I haven't yet tested 12.10, but so far every single version ever since the Qt abandonment has horrible usability. This is due to Opera nowadays using the gtk theme, and my theme being dark, Opera interfaces with it really badly.
For example, Opera takes the button bg color from the gtk theme (dark), but the button text color from the site's CSS (black). You can probably imagine that black on black is hardly winning usability awards
I had a bug open on this, reported way back in the 10.60 days I think, but got no replies. No idea what the number was.
0. depending on your operating system, explicitly disable embedded font bitmaps (instructions).*
1. install the Calibri font
2. visit the Phoronix forums
Several text elements are rendered using the heavily aliased _bitmap_ version of Calibri, instead of the proper antialiased version which is seen in Firefox and Chrome. This might not sound like a big deal, but any site using webfonts can potentially display similar problems.
* Embedded bitmaps are useful for East Asian and other complex scripts. They are completely pointless in latin scripts when using modern font rendering techniques.
Another quite annoying bug is that Opera/Mac always enables the discrete GPU when it starts, impacting battery life and increasing temperature. Safari, Firefox and Chrome do not exhibit this behavior, so this is something particular to Opera/Mac.
Disclaimer: These are just my own comments, and I do not speak for Opera as a company.
2. Google (Chrome) makes money from advertising, Apple (Safari) from selling overpriced hardware and Microsoft (IE) from their crappy OS. Mozilla (Firefox) has always been an open source company and thus formed their business model accordingly. You should be glad that we're not trying to do exactly the same thing as Mozilla, because then we would have to fight for a share of their current sources of income. Instead we try to fill different niches.
3. I'm far from involved in these decisions, but I assume it's because it doesn't fit our current business model.
And since I just looked it up, Opera has more employees and bigger annual revenue than Mozilla btw, so I don't think we're doing that bad despite our small (desktop) market share
Nobody has been able to reproduce this problem here. Have you got Opera Turbo enabled? I know there was a problem with the WebP decoder (Turbo reencodes some images as WebP) which caused similar behaviour.Originally Posted by Xilanaz
I'm not a desktop developer, and I just got some urgent stuff I need to work with so I haven't had time to look at it. Have you tried switching to another Opera theme (Appearance... menu)? Otherwise you can try going to Preferences... > Advaced > Content > Style Options and disable "Enable styling of forms". If that fails, try going to "opera:config" and look under the Colors and Interface Colors sections. Also be sure to use the latest version because it might be a fixed bug.
That sounds quite complicated, I'll look at it when I have more time.
If you're missing the kde4 one bug your distribution about it, or check if it's not part of different package. Or if you have all of them installed and the gtk one gets picked you could delete the gtk ones. I'm not sure how to choose the plugin being used as all my installs are KDE only so I had proper integration by default.

A serving is a specific amount of food defined by common measurements, such as cups or tablespoons. It's not the same as a portion, which is the amount you happen to put on your plate. Packaged foods must use standard serving sizes. Standard serving sizes make it easier for shoppers to consider and compare calories and nutrients when choosing foods.
Serving sizes, also known as "reference amounts customarily consumed," were taken from surveys of the average American's eating habits in the 1970s and 1980s. However, these serving sizes don't seem to match up with the way Americans eat today. Maybe they never did — since people notoriously underreport what they've eaten when given food surveys.
The concern that serving sizes are out of step with the way Americans eat has led some to suggest that serving sizes be "normalized" — in other words, upsized — to reflect today's larger appetites. Some experts also suggest that calories appear in large print on the front of packages — not just in small print on the Nutrition Facts panel.
Proponents believe that this approach will serve to shock people into eating less. The sticker shock would be considerable — changing the serving size for premium ice cream from one-half cup to one cup increases the calories from 250 to 500. (My husband can easily polish off two cups in one sitting!)
Others argue that if serving sizes are changed it may send an unintended message — that it's OK to eat more. Also, those bigger serving sizes mean more fat, sugar and salt per serving too.
Do you consider serving size when choosing foods? Or are you unintentionally eating multiple servings and getting more calories than you realize? Do you think upsizing serving sizes will serve the greater good?

Selecting "Submit" signifies that you have read and agree to our posting guidelines.
Should be simple - any food product that requires a label should have the number of calories in the entire package on the front in bold letters.
Your ice cream container holds 4 servings of 250 calories each? Put 1000 calories on the front. Large.
Let the consumer decide what the serving size is.
The FDA requires companies to put ingredients on a label if they reach a certain amount per serving size. So when a company wants to leave out ingredients they change the serving size on the label to do so. Remember when you look at a food label the ingredients listed are in order from most used to least amount used. This allows the companies to put additives that are unhealthy/harmful to us and you don't even know you are consuming it. Best thing to do is to eat foods that are organic and unprocessed.
I think it should be illegal not to tell the general public what we are eating! They just passed a law last year stating that the meat companies will not have to label the difference between Cloned beef and uncloned beef. Now that is SCARY! What exactly are they going to be adding/changing to the cloned beef? We have a right to choose whether we eat cloned or uncloned. But they aren't giving us that right. I think the percentage of people who buy their own cow and have it slaughtered will increase tremendously!
I like the idea of "x amount of ____ per cup" and forget serving sizes. Serving size is completely meaningless because everyone has a different idea and different need. What would help most of all is making it cheaper to by healthy food than junk food. Why should it be more expensive to get the "less sugar" or "less salt" version?
From an energy perspective the guideline is 2 handfuls for every meal see foodsheal.com or drbilldean.com :)
Restaurant portions and prices can be ridiculous. My husband and I share a meal so we get the right size portions and save money at the same time.
Portion control is key. It wouldn't hurt to say 250 cal per serving 4 servings per container on the front of a pint of ice cream, but allowing for someone to get away with 500 calories because it is a "suggested serving" is not okay. Please remember not everyone is an educated consumer, by upping the serving size we are simply encouraging people to eat more.
Ashley's comments are on target, especially the first & last sentences. Most of the "nanny types" are more concerned with deciding what is best for others. A "healthy portion" for a 6'4" 220 lbs. man is not the same as for a 5'5" 125 lbs. woman.If you want standard sizes, get MREs and enjoy! Does anyone really believe that the 5'2" 200 lbs. individual got that way because of a misstated serving size or caloric confusion? TV informercials saturate us with diet information/exercise regimens, and so-called fitness gurus make millions on Oprah, etc. My mother used to say "Push back from the table", and my father would say "Get off your butt!" Yet the saying still holds, we dig our graves with our spoons.
Serving size is probably the most important factor in reducing the amount of calories consumed. It's not the food that gets us - it's how much we eat of it - yes, even apples and oranges! And we Americans seem to be eating a lot of everything these days. Upsizing the serving sizes would seem to be capitulating to the "supersizing" of the American diet. I think it would be better to find a way of increasing people's awareness of what a healthy portion size looks like as compared to those that we commonly receive in restaurants, etc.
Get away from servings and serving sizes. Tell the truth by volume... If a package provides 3 cups of edibles then provide the caloric count on a per cup basis and let the consumer decide what portion they want to consume. Place the responsiblity back in the hands of the consumer. By the way, one cup is about the size of an average fist, isn't that the size of a normal stomach.
I think that the only items that need to change their servings sizes are more "single serving" type packages. Like a bottle of coke is technically 2.5 servings. That doesn't make any sense. They just don't want you to know how much junk is in it! And some microwaveable dinners, etc are sometimes multiple servings. Yeah right! Who shares or saves half of those?!
I think that putting the calories on the front of the package in big bold print for the serving size normally eaten is a great idea, but this will only work if people actually know how many calories they need per day for a healthy body weight for their height, age, gender and activity level. Seeing that two cups of ice cream has 500 calories will only shock you if you know your daily goal is 1500 and not 3500.
Unfortunately, I don't think that there is a right way to go about this. Sure, you can put a serving size on everything, but then people take it the wrong way. Why should we be concerned about the serving size of healthy foods like fruits and vegetables? I can definitely see someone restraining their veggie intake to "save room" for the cake and ice cream. All to often, I think people fail to take issues dealing with diet and try to globalize them, forgetting that no two bodies are alike.
