Conrad Hotels Wants You To Book Your Hotel Room Through Instagram
We love Instagram. It's a simple social space where we can enjoy family and friends' intimate photos while at the same time stalk celebrities, pick up fashion tips, laugh at animals doing adorable things, drool over dishes from exotic restaurants and best of all, admire crazy killer views from all over the world.
But is it a place where eyou want to book your hotel room? Conrad Hotels hopes so.
The Hilton Hotels brand has partnered ups with Like2Buy technology to allow followers to book a hotel through Instagram. Here's how it works:

Is The Conrad Concierge App Really That Cool?
A few years back, Conrad released a special mobile application that was supposed to make it easier to connect with the hotel for special needs like their pillow menu or room service.
We had the opportunity to play with the tweaked and updated app at a recent stay in Chicago and we're pretty excited about it.
Right from our mobile phone (or iPad, if we wanted), we could access as much info about the property as we could from the in-room compendium. But the real magic was exposed on our way home from a night out in River North.

Conrad Hotels Comes Back to London, Takes Over InterContinental Westminster
It's less than two years ago we welcomed a second InterContinental hotel to London, with the Westminster outpost setting up next to New Scotland Yard, a walk across St James's and Green Park to its Park Lane sibling. It's less than a year ago we talked about a third InterContinental coming to the city, this time much further east at the O2 arena.
Things have taken a very unexpected turn though this month, with the InterContinental Westminster going and now gone, becoming the surprise return of Conrad Hotels to the city. As of now, the hotel on Broadway is known as the Conrad London St. James, a major move up from the previous Conrad location in Chelsea Harbour (now a Millenium Monogram Collection if you recall). Still with us? It's all in the hotel rebranding game.

First Renderings of the Conrad 'Un-Trump' Fort Lauderdale, Opening Next Summer
We told you earlier this year that the saga of the ill-fated Trump Fort Lauderdale would have a happy ending by summer 2015, opening as the Conrad Fort Lauderdale Hotel & Beach Residences. A $30 million-plus investment would erase any signs of half a decade of vacancy and neglect, the result of which we can show you a few renderings of now.

Conrad Hotels to Open Inside the Upcoming CityCenterDC
Washington DC's uber high-end mixed use and all-one-word development, CityCenterDC, will also have a high-end hotel brand inside--Conrad Hotels, which is anticipated to open in early 2018. This will be the first time Conrad has opened in DC and it will also be the only hotel planned for CityCenterDC. But what exactly is CityCenterDC? Allow us.
CityCenterDC is a micro-planned, urban "neighborhood" encompassing 10 acres in downtown DC. It's been constructed in phases over several years and includes residential, retail and dining, offices, and a luxury hotel that now has a name.
Speaking of names, The Conrad DC has a distinguished team working out the details of its design-- a duo of architects in Swiss firm Herzog & de Meuron Architekten and Dallas based HKS Architects, Inc, and Rottet Studio as interior designer. Based on their previous work, it's safe to say this Conrad will be no ordinary hotel.

Conrad's Loopy Doopy is Reopening, Now with Even More Booze Pops
Two of the best things about summer are sipping cocktails in rooftop bars and cooling down with a cold popsicle. At the Conrad New York, you won't have to choose between the two.
The hotel's Loopy Doopy Rooftop Bar is reopening for the season on May and along with its signature Prosecco & Ice Pop cocktail – an alcohol-infused ice pop served in a glass of Prosecco from the bar's very own tap, the bar is partnering with the NYC-based people's pops brand, to serve seasonal boozy ice pops.

Conrad Hotels To Open in Fort Lauderdale in The 'Un-Trump' Building
A few years ago, the planned Trump Hotel in Fort Lauderdale was still "blowing in the wind" without an operator and it continued that way until last month, when Conrad Hotels announced they would be taking over the property (in partnership with CFLB Partnership LLC) and renaming it the The Conrad Fort Lauderdale Beach Residences.
According to the Sun-Sentinel, the 290-roomproperty will be a condo-hotel with different residential layouts which will be rented to guests when the owners are not staying in them. Prices for the units will start at $450,000.
But since the building was left unoccupied for so long, it will now require some loving care to get it up to Conrad Hotels luxury standards. Word is the property will get about $34 million in enhancements that will also include a fitness center, a Conrad Spa, a swimming pool and an oceanfront restaurant. It will open in 2015. Better late than never at all.

For the Full Moon Tonight: Three Hotels with In-Room Telescopes
You know you scored a hotel room with a killer view if you walk in to find a telescope at the window.
For many hotel guests, scoring such an amenity is pure luck; however, for travelers who know what they want (and it's an in-room telescope), there are a few properties that make such an offering part of the experience.
Three hotels with in-room telescopes:

Who Was Caught in a Compromising Position at the Conrad Hotel In Tokyo?
It's no secret that hotel rooms are used for trysting but we were in for quite a shock when we saw this happening at the Conrad Hotel in Tokyo. Yes, that's right. We're talking about the two teddy bears getting too close in a cup inside one of the guest rooms.
All joking aside, the snapshot from Ken E. Lee in the HotelChatter Flickr Pool gives us an up close and personal look at the sweet teddy bears, which are only available to guests. (The hotel also gives guests a Conrad duckie too.) You can purchase these directly from the hotel but you know, you have to go to Tokyo to get it. Otherwise, eBay it.
Rates start at around $400 a night for a King City room with seriously stunning views of the skyscrapers in Ginza and Shiodome. Check out more of Photo: Ken E. Lee/Flickr]

5 Hotels In Lower Manhattan For River Gazing
For most of us, we're just happy that our hotel room in Manhattan doesn't look out onto a brick wall. But for those of you who are particular about your views, we've rounded up the best hotels in lower Manhattan for river gazing. And no, you don't have to spend a fortune to do it, which is another reason to consider downtown versus uptown when planning your stay.
1. It's all about the views at Ritz-Carlton Battery Park, which also took quite a beating during Hurricane Sandy (everything's back to normal now, though). The 298-room hotel often gets overshadowed by its uptown counterparts (Ritz-Carlton New York Central Park, Mandarin Oriental, Four Seasons New York), but actually this place outshines all of them put together when it comes to fresh sea breezes and plenty of open spaces around the hotel The rooms even come with telescopes!
Rates from $395/night.

The Peninsula Chicago's Mini Bunny and Other Easter Hotel Hoppenings
Nobody does a holiday better than a hotel but the Peninsula Chicago has really gone out of its way for Easter again this year.
The luxury hotel on North Michigan Ave has decorated a MINI Cooper with bunny ears, a pink nose and whiskers and a poofy tail. The bunny mobile will ride around Chi-town with Peter Cottontail and the Peninsula mascot Peter Bear passing out candy and toy Peninsula bears (dressed up in their Easter finest) to kids throughout the city. So parents, if a car pulls up with a bunny and a bear looking to give your kid some candy, it's actually ok to let them.
Back inside the hotel, the Lobby restaurant and The Children's Lounge will feature children's activities and of course, an Easter egg hunt. Looking for a last minute room at the hotel this weekend? Rates start at $350 a night.

2013 NFL Season — 5 Things We Learned From Week 4
We are beginning to see which teams will be chased — and who will be doing the chasing — throughout the 2013 NFL season. Here are five things we learned from Sunday's games:
We are beginning to see which teams will be chased — and who will be doing the chasing — throughout the 2013 NFL season. Here are five things we learned from Sunday's games:
Division races are starting to take shape as the NFL completes the first quarter of its 2013 schedule. Here are five intriguing storylines we'll be watching this week:
Some artist took it upon himself to redesign the logos for all the professional football teams and some are pretty awesome
Frank Gore ran for 153 yards and a score, and Colin Kaepernick threw two touchdown passes as the San Francisco 49ers dominated the Rams, 35-11 in St. Louis on Thursday night.
Peyton Manning passed for 374 yards and three touchdowns, and the Broncos easily beat the Oakland Raiders, 37-21, on Monday night in Denver.
Seven NFL teams remain unbeaten pending the Monday night game between Denver and Oakland, while six teams have yet to win in 2013. Here are the most important takeaways from Week 3.
NFL teams are ready to kick-off Week 3 with a full slate of games starting Thursday night. Here are the storylines we'll be watching:
Kansas City forced five turnovers, and the Chiefs beat the Eagles, 26-16, in Philadelphia on Thursday night.
The Cleveland Browns announced their starting quarterback for Sunday's game at Minnesota on Twitter Wednesday.
Brian Hoyer will get the nod for the Browns, replacing Brandon Weeden, who sprained his thumb in last week's 14-6 loss to Baltimore
Andy Dalton threw for 280 yards and a touchdown, and the Cincinnati Bengals beat the Pittsburgh Steelers, 20-10, in Ohio on Monday night.
Teams were already facing big games in the second week of the 2013 NFL season. Here are the five most interesting things we learned from Week 2:
Tom Brady threw for 185 yards and a touchdown, and the New England Patriots outlasted the New York Jets, 13-10, in rain-soaked Foxborough, Mass. on Thursday night.

"Steampunk meets B grade action feature"
Narration: Doctor Watson's narrator fits the role but Holme's narrator I felt did not. Overall the narration was good
It is the Arthur Conan Doyle 1912 story "The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans" with some of the names/genders changed and the Bruce-Partington submarine, changed to the Nautilus. In places especially in the first half it's almost word for word from the original 1912 story.
The first half reads like a Holmes story the second half reads like some B grade action movie with the bionic man thrown in for good measure. Holmes conclusions are lifted straight from the original story by Arthur Conan Doyle.
I my opinion this Book will not appeal to people looking for an Arthur Conan Doyle Holmes alternative story, nor is this book really steam punk.
"Nice idea but never feed a dog chicken"
Nice idea but never feed a dog chicken, the bones are to brittle and really, feeding any cooked bone to your dog is dangerous because cooked bones may splinter and damage the stomach and intestines. Raw bones do not normally splinter and are thus preferred
"Going to take awhile to get used to narrator"
It's going to take awhile, if ever to get used to narrator. Whilst Ms Quirk did an excellent job with the Finishing School series, this series I feel would have been better served using Ms Gray from the original series, as this is basically continuing on from Parasol where Finishing School was a an earlier side step with some of the original character in earlier lives and in most cases smaller roles
It's just that characters we know and love have a different vioce interpretation . . . it's not bad narration just not what we are used to
"Excellent start to another great series brought to Audio"
I remember reading this many years ago, now it being released to audio and i am very grateful - first because its a great series and second because even with Modsitt's audio ramblings during his books and the length, it's well executed and narrated.
i would recommend this book and hopefully this series to all who like epic well written fantasy.
One hopes they keep the Narrator
"Ruined by new narrator"
Another great series that has been re published and ruined in th audiobook format due to a change in a narrator who is not only too old sounding by is totally wrong,
The original release narrated by Sandra Burr should be listened too if possible, it is a far better version
"Republished Audiobook ruined by the new narration"
Another great series that has been re published and ruined in th audiobook format due to a change in a narrator who is not only too old sounding by is totally wrong,
The original release narrated by Sandra Burr should be listened too if possible, it is a far better version
"one of this years sleepers"
An excellent SCIFI adventure. Great plot and characters around first contact in contemporary times.
A lot of good ideas with some some a bit too far fetched but still believable within the story.
A must read for any science fiction / fantasy fan
A good narrator seals a excellent package
"Excellent spin on the supernatural world"
Excellent spin on the supernatural world - just be aware that there are some very descriptive sex scenes (although they don't take over the book like some authors) and use of colourful language, (again it exists but there are must worse out there) so if such things put you off then this book is probably not for you. which would be a pity as it well worth the purchase and listen.
The narrator is excellent
"MS Carriger does it yet again"
Another great Steampunk romp from Gail Carrier with an excellent narration from Moira Quirk.
This is the second in this series set before the timeline of the excellent Parasol Protectorate series. it even includes younger versions of some of the characters or their relations from the original series. Whilst the technology is earlier there is a definite Steampunk vibe to the story arc and of course the same supernatural races are woven into the tale.
The story is told in Ms Carriger's irreverent tongue firmly in cheek style of her earlier series and whilst listed as YA it will most definitely appeal to those who love Steampunk and or her earlier series no matter what their age . . .
"The "heroine" causes 90% of the problems & deaths"
The "heroine" causes 90% of the problems & deaths, in this book and I can't remember the last time i wished for a main character to die quickly, save lives and put us all out of our misery. She "never" appears to learn & she causes more pain and death to her friends because basically she appears to be too stupid to live. She even admits her stupidity several times during the book.
Amanda does a wonderful job with the narration but even she is hard put to save this book.
The plot has promise but Olivia Kiskey (the Heroine) is so clueless to reality she causes harm, damage and death all around her, supposedly in the guise of "doing the right thing", she is the kind of friend who makes it superfluous to have enemies
"Excessive descriptions of sex, drugs and abuse."
The story is listed under fantasy and as Steampunk, but would be better listed under erotica.
The excessive descriptions/use of sex, "colourful" language, drug taking, deviant sexual behavior and alcoholic binges, could be somewhat excused by the early life of the "heroine" but such things need not become most of the book. they could have be described once and then eluded to instead of becoming most of the books bulk and story.
The narrator is the only real saving grace and in-spite of the material does an excellent job.
I wont go into plot spoilers but instead would like to use this review as a warning for those who are looking for a Steampunk Fantasy rather than an erotic one, because i don't think you will like this book, which is a shame as decent Steampunk fantasies are few and far between especially in Audiobook format.
If however erotica, with heaps of helpings of drug and other abuse is your thing . . .enjoy
I don't consider myself a prude but I require a reasonable cohesive plot with such stories before they interest me in anyway and such devices should be used as a means to grow the characters and the world they inhabit or at least used with skill not as a bludgeon and constant shock or page fillers because after a short time such stories and devices have no real value other than to fill space.
This review is solely my own interpretation and will obviously not agree with that of others, I just hope it helps some in evaluating this book under the category it is listed as

The 'celebrated blind traveller' James Holman is one of the sitters featured in the display Facing Blindness: Visual Impairment in the Nineteenth Century. Both Holman's biography and his portraiture helped to counter the more negative associations between blindness and poverty that existed in the nineteenth century. Holman's portrait – which depicts him as a professional, smartly-attired individual surrounded by symbols of his learning and adventures – including his hand resting on a globe and his writing frame – very much refute other stereotypical associations of blindness and poverty. This association is illustrated in this etching of two blind beggars by the antiquary John Thomas Smith, who portrayed several other blind and visually-disabled poor people in his 1817 book Vagabondia or, anecdotes of Mendicant Wanderers through the Streets of London.…

On 17 October the Commission published a proposal to limit global land conversion for biofuel production, and raise the climate benefits of biofuels used in the EU. The use of food-based biofuels to meet the 10% renewable energy target of the Renewable Energy Directive will be limited to 5%. This is to stimulate the development of alternative, so-called second generation biofuels from non-food feedstock, like waste or straw, which emit substantially less greenhouse gases than fossil fuels and do not directly interfere with global food production. For the first time, the estimated global land conversion impacts – Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC) – will be considered when assessing the greenhouse gas performance of biofuels.

Günther Oettinger said: "This is a first pragmatic step to increase transparency on intergovernmental agreements in the energy field. It will help increase compliance and consistency with the EU legislation. It will also help provide legal certainty for investment decisions often underpinned by intergovernmental agreements and enhance the negotiating position of Member States. We will closely monitor the effectiveness of the legislation and continue to encourage a more ambitious approach, reflecting the EU's energy challenges and objectives."
On 4 October the Council adopted the Decision establishing an information exchange mechanism for intergovernmental agreements between Member States and third countries in the field of energy. This piece of legislation requires obligatory notification of existing intergovernmental agreements to the Commission, which will make these agreements available to all other Member States. The Decision also confirms the possibility for the Commission to participate upon request of a Member State in negotiations as observer. It also provides the possibility for the Commission to perform upon request from a Member State ex-ante compatibility checks of negotiated agreements with the EU legislation.

The standards of safety of nuclear power plants in Europe are generally high but further improvements in the safety features of almost all European nuclear power plants are recommended. Nevertheless national safety authorities came to the conclusion that no closure of Nuclear Power Plants was warranted. This is the main message of the European Commission communication on results of the nuclear stress tests published on 4 October. These tests have established that not all safety standards promoted by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and not all international best practices are applied in all Member States. The Commission will follow closely the implementation of the recommendations and will at the same time propose legislative measures to further enhance nuclear safety in Europe.
Günther Oettinger said: "I strongly welcome the positive Council vote today on the Energy Efficiency Directive. The most important phase of the process – the implementation – will start soon. I call upon Member States and stakeholders for extra efforts to bring its provisions into life. The Commission also remains dedicated and committed to continue its support to the process.''
On 4 October the Council (EPSCO) endorsed the political agreement on the Energy Efficiency Directive, following the European Parliament's overwhelmingly positive vote of 11 September (632 in favour, 19 abstentions, 25 against).
Energy Commissioner Günther Oettinger welcomed the signature of a political agreement of 27 September allowing the go-ahead of the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline project (TAP).
EU Energy Commissioner Oettinger said: "This is another important step towards our aim to get gas directly from the Caspian Region."
This political document between Albania, Greece and Italy is an agreement in principle to the construction of a pipeline. The agreement allows the detailed permitting and regulatory procedures to go ahead, and paves the way for a formal inter-governmental agreement setting out the legal framework for the TAP pipeline.

What are biofuels?
Biofuels are liquid or gaseous transport fuels made from biomass. The most important biofuels today are bioethanol (made from sugar and cereal crops) used to replace petrol, and biodiesel (made mainly from vegetable oils) used to replace diesel.
There are two distinctive categories of biofuels:
Conventional (first generation) biofuels:
First generation or conventionally produced biofuels are biofuels produced from food crops, such as sugar, starch and vegetable oils. They are produced from land using feedstock which can also be used for food and feed.
Advanced (second and third generation) biofuels:
Second and third generation or advanced biofuels are produced from feedstock that do not compete directly with food and feed crops, such as wastes and agricultural residues (i.e. wheat straw, municipal waste), non-food crops (i.e. miscanthus and short rotation coppice) and algae.
Total biofuel consumption in the EU represented about 4,7% of transport fuel consumption in 2010, mainly first generation biofuels. Biofuel consumption differs significantly across Member States.
What are bioliquids?
Bioliquids are liquid fuels made from biomass used for energy purposes other than transport. Bioliquids are normally made from vegetable oils. They are only used in some Member States and their consumption levels in the EU are low.
Why do we need biofuels?
We need sustainable biofuels to reach our 2020 targets for the use of renewable energy, fight climate change and to replace fossil fuels in the transport sector. Sustainable biofuels are the main alternative to petrol and diesel used in transport as they are low carbon fuels easily deployable on existing transport infrastructure. This is important as the transport sector produces around 20% of the greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union and emissions are expected to grow in the medium term due to increasing demand.
What is indirect land use change (ILUC)?
When biofuels are produced on existing agricultural land, the demand for food and feed crops remains, and may lead to someone producing more food and feed somewhere else. This can imply land use change (by changing e.g. forest into agricultural land), which implies that a substantial amount of CO2 emissions are released into the atmosphere. What is new in the legislative proposal?
The new rules will make biofuels used in the EU more sustainable and will help us to reduce further Greenhouse Gas emissions and encourage greater market penetration of advanced biofuels.
This will be achieved in particular by:
increasing the minimum greenhouse gas saving requirements for new installations to 60%, compared to fossil fuels, in order to improve the efficiency of biofuel production processes as well as discouraging further investments in installations with low greenhouse gas performance;
including indirect land use change (ILUC) factors in the reporting by fuel suppliers and Member States of greenhouse gas savings of biofuels and bioliquids;
limiting the amount of food crop-based biofuels and bioliquids that can be counted towards the EU's 10% target for renewable energy in the transport sector by 2020, to the current consumption level – 5% up to 2020, while keeping the overall renewable energy and carbon intensity reduction targets; this means that the remainder will have to come mainly from second generation biofuels;
providing incentives for biofuels with no or low indirect land use change emissions, and in particular the 2nd and 3rd generation biofuels produced from feedstock that do not create an additional demand for land, including algae, straw, and various types of waste, as they will contribute more towards the 10% renewable energy in transport target of the Renewable Energy Directive.
What are ILUC factors?
The proposal sets out indirect land-use change (ILUC) factors for different crop groups. These factors represent the estimated land use change emissions that are taking place globally as a result of the crops being used for biofuels in the EU, rather than for food and feed.
Simply put, all biofuels that use land will get an ILUC factor. Feedstock that do not require agricultural land for their production (i.e. waste, residues, algae) and those that cause direct land use change (i.e. in which case operators need to calculate their actual emissions) are exempt from the factors.
Under the new rules, the estimated emissions from indirect land use change (ILUC factors), are to be included in Member States' and fuel suppliers' reporting of greenhouse gas savings under the Renewable Energy Directive and in the Fuel Quality Directive respectively.
Why are these changes necessary?
The scientific evidence on indirect land use change impacts of biofuels is indicating that some types of biofuels, such as those from waste and residues, are much better than others in terms of their climate impact. These biofuels, which are typically more expensive to produce, also do not pose problems related to increased food prices as they do not come from food crops. But unless action is taken now, they are not likely to be available in any significant amounts in 2020.
Therefore, the Commission is proposing legislation that will enhance the incentives for the best performing biofuels, and thereby improve the greenhouse gas savings of the overall biofuel mix used in the EU by 2020 compared to fossil fuels, and reduce their impact on the potential increase in food prices.
Does that mean that EU has radically changed its policy in this field?
No. This is not a radical change of policy.
The Directives on renewable energy and fuel quality asked the Commission to investigate the impact of ILUC, and propose ways to minimise it if necessary. The best available science indicates that ILUC is an issue that needs to be tackled and the current proposal does exactly that. The proposed changes are needed to ensure that the conditions Member States agreed on when adopting the legislation and notably the 10% renewable energy in transport target, i.e. that biofuels are sustainable and a significant amount of advanced biofuels are available up to 2020, are met.
What will happen to first generation biofuels? Will they be phased out?
The Commission is of the view that all biofuels made from food crops and which do not lead to substantial greenhouse gas savings (when emissions from indirect land-use change are included) should not be subsidised in the period after 2020. In the interim period, the proposal aims at stabilising the consumption of first generation biofuels.
Will there be any changes for Member States?
For the fulfilment of the 10% renewable energy target, the Member States can only count 5% biofuels from food crops. The rest needs to come notably from advanced biofuels, like the ones made from wastes or agricultural residues such as straw, but also from the use of renewable electricity in road and rail transport.
Will there be any changes to the introduction of E10 in Member States?
E10 means blending petrol with up to 10% (in volume) of ethanol and is a means to achieve the 2020 targets, which remain unchanged. Ethanol can not only be produced from food crops, but also from residues. Furthermore, the best available scientific evidence on ILUC indicates that ethanol offers significant greenhouse gas savings, also when ILUC emissions are included and that the use of E10 does not contribute to dramatic increases of food prices. E10 should therefore be introduced equally across the EU without delay.
Will the 5% limitation in the amount of first generation biofuels that can be counted towards the targets of the EU legislation put a limit on the production of first generation biofuels?
No. The production and consumption of first generation biofuels can be higher than 5% in a given Member State, but the excess of 5% will not count towards the Member States' renewable energy targets.
Can growing use of biofuels have a negative impact on the availability and prices of food and feed in the world?
All increased use of land increases the competition for the resources that we get from our land areas. This holds for crops used for biofuels, cotton used for clothes, coffee, maize used for feeding animals for meat production and palm oil used for cosmetics.
Under the new rules, the growth in biofuels in the EU should come from feedstock that are not in competition with food crops, thus minimising these impacts.
How much arable land is used for growing the feedstock for biofuels? In the EU? In the world?
The globe has ca 13 200 Mha of land of which about 1600 Mha is used for growing various crops. Less than 3% of global cropland is used to produce biofuels. In the EU, we use around 2% of our agricultural land for biofuels.
Where are the biofuels consumed in the EU being produced?
In 2010, 83% of the biofuels consumed in the EU were produced in the EU, part of which is produced from imported feedstock. The main countries exporting biodiesel to the EU were Argentina, Brazil and USA for soy biodiesel and Indonesia and Malaysia for palm oil. For bioethanol, the main exporting countries were Brazil for sugarcane bioethanol and the USA for maize bioethanol.
Do the new criteria apply also to imported biofuels?
Yes, all the rules for greenhouse gas reporting and sustainability criteria for biofuels apply equally to biofuels produced in the EU Member States and third countries. There is therefore no discrimination.
When will the new rules take effect?
The new rules will take effect after the European Parliament and the Council will have adopted the proposal in a co-decision procedure. Member States then have to transpose the provisions into national law within one year.

Yes, but I have high hopes for "Street Fighter: The Movie, The Game: The Movie". Apparently it's a movie, based on the game, which is based on the movie based on the game "Street Fighter".
Also, I hear that Electronic Arts has bought the rights to make it into a game.
It's a rather well-done fan flick about Street fighters after the fame has faded out.

TEHRAN - Iran called on the West to avoid a deepening diplomatic crisis following the storming of the British embassy in Tehran, saying it was an issue between Tehran and London alone, Iranian media reported on Saturday.Britain closed its embassy after Tuesday's incursion by hardline youths and expelled all Iranian diplomats from London. The fallout for Tehran spread when several other countries recalled their envoys, including France, Germany, Italy and the Netherlands.RELATED:Iranian diplomats leave UK after expulsion orderUS Senate OK's sanctions on Iran central bankFrance was also bringing some of its diplomats and their families home from Tehran to ensure their safety, a French foreign ministry spokesman said on Saturday. The move was temporary."The British government is trying to extend to other European countries the problem between the two of us," Foreign Ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast was reported as saying by the semi-official Fars news agency."But of course we have told European countries not to subject their ties with us to the kind of problems that existed between Iran and Britain."

Whole House filter change??
Moved into house with a whole house filter (blue housing, red button, no manufacture info on it).
House supply>shutoff valve>filter>water softener>shutoff valve>rest of house.
Im not sure how to change the filter in the thing, can any generally explain this situation to me?
Shut off the water before the filter and leave the softener alone.
Open a faucet in the house to relieve the water pressure in the system. The red button should also relieve the pressure but I prefer opening a faucet.
Unscrew the blue canister counter-clockwise (looking at it from underneath). Remove the old element and clean the inside of the canister and dry. There may be a filter wrench lying around that looks like this picture.
Replace the filter element with the same style and specification element. If you can't identify the element a water treatment store can if you take it to them. Buy one to use and one to have as a spare.
There's an o-ring that seals the canister. Lubricate that o-ring with FOOD GRADE silicon grease. Do not use any petroleum product to lube that o-ring. Good idea to buy a spare o-ring.
Screw the canister back in till it bottoms and hand tighten only. Close the faucet you opened and turn on the water. Inspect for leaks.
thanks for the clear explanation.
So is a replacement o-ring specific to that model filter or can I take it down to the hardware store and match one up?
Silicon grease as mentioned, thats just a tube or cannister of plumbers grease like you would use on a faucet right?
So long as the o-ring is undamaged, replacement is not necessary. I have one that has been in use for 20 years. Before replacing or cleaning the filter, I fill two 5 gallon buckets with clean water and use that in a smaller bucket to wash all the reusable components before reinstalling them.
Thanks again, I swapped it out today. You should have
seen the old filter. It was oozing with rust, disgusting.
Picked up a tin of silicon grease and some replacement o-rings.... was able to use the old one though for now.
Still now identification whatsoever on my model, lucky there was one replacement filter here so I know what kind to get:
Purtrex PXC05-20
hopefully I can find these locally, cheap.
NOw the question is, how long between filter changes?
"NOW, the question is, how long between filter changes?"
The way you KNOW for sure is to look at the pressure gauges the installer should have put before and after the filter so you could see the pressure drop across the filter. When there is a 10-15 psi difference before and after the filter it is time for a change.
But, there's no gauges to look at so you have to take a look and decide. Inspect the element after one month and then after two months and so on. when it looks like it's coated time to replace. Don't wait till it's plugged. Then replace the element routinely at that interval.
If you know a plumber or ever have on in to do a job ask them to add a pressure gauge before and after the filter. It is worth the money.
Find a place to buy the filters 6 at a time to get the price down.
That's the downside of inline filters... constant maintenance.
WAIT A MINUTE... in your other thread you said you are renting for $20 a month and that includes service calls.
Why are you changing filters if service calls are included in the rental price?
Have them come and change the filters and they should be providing the filter elements.
Thanks justalurker for your through explanations. Good eye too about the rental. The filter isnt part ofr the rental, we own it.
So judging by the crud in the filter, I am assuming its in place not just for "taste" rather as a sediment trap (rust) that would otherwise screw up my fittings. I guess my idea of installing a basic one under the sink instead and getting rid of the whole house in line filter isnt a smart idea.??
Purtrex PXC05-20 is a 5 micron sediment (dirt) filter not a filter for taste. With a filter filtering dirt particles that small it will be changed frequently and will restrict water flow and pressure as it packs with sediment.
If you have a sediment problem than a backwashing sediment filter (like a softener in appearance) might be prudent in the long run. As you are now, when the filter restricts water pressure and flow the softener can not regenerate correctly and you'll get hard water leakage.
You have compound problems and require more than a simple solution. There is no magic bullet.
You need to do what I recommended in your other thread and get the water people out there to prove to you that you are getting soft )ZERO hardness) water all the time till regeneration. Ask them about your filter.
There's no more anyone can do for you until all the details of your water supply, water quality, and water treatment hardware are posted.

We had a nice night here before leaving for home after a 10 day trip in Germany. The hotel had a great bar (literally any alcohol, wine, beer we could think of) and the restaurant looked nice though we didn't eat in it. It is a hotel that largely seems to cater to business travelers (bar & restaurant prices are expensive), but they were very hospitable to my family & young son. Just behind & to the left of the check in desk is a kids play area with blocks & puzzles :) The cri - Anonymous

OSLO -- Statoil has delivered its plan for the development and operation of the $5.7 billion Aasta Hansteen gas field in the Norwegian Sea to the Norwegian government, and also presented its plans for the Polarled pipeline to transport its gas to the mainland.
The field, formerly known as Luva, is expected to produce its first gas in the third quarter of 2017. Plateau production is expected at 130,000 boepd. Statoil estimated the field contains 47 Bcm of gas. By comparison, Norway's total gas production in 2011 was 101.3 Bcm.
"We are happy to take another step in developing activity in the Norwegian Sea together with our partners. Aasta Hansteen will be the first deepwater development in the Norwegian Sea," said Oystein Michelsen, Statoil's director for activity on the Norwegian continental shelf.
The 480-km-long Polarled pipeline will extend Norway's pipeline infrastructure, measuring about 8,000 km long in total, northwards and enable the transport of gas from nearby discoveries, including Zidane and Linnorm, to the Nyhamna gas terminal on Norway's northwest coast.
The pipeline's name has changed to Polarled from Norwegian Sea Gas Infrastructure, which may indicate plans for future extension farther north in the Arctic, toward the Barents Sea, where several new discoveries have been made in recent years, including Skrugard and Havis.
"Polarled will open up a new region and provide for further exploration and development of future discoveries in the area," said Eldar Satre, Statoil's head of mid-stream and downstream activity. "This is an important contribution to maintain the role of the Norwegian continental shelf as a long-term reliable gas producer."
The pipeline bill will be split between operator Statoil and companies OMV, GDF Suez, ConocoPhilips, Edison International, Maersk Oil, Royal Dutch Shell, Total, Gassco and Norwegian state-owned oil company Petoro.
Operator Statoil has a 75% stake in the Aasta Hansteen field, while OMV Norge AS has a 15% stake and ConocoPhilips 10%. The field, at a water depth of 1,300 m, will be developed with a spar platform

- Abstract
- References
- Cited By
Escherichia coli can use nitrate as a terminal electron acceptor for anaerobic respiration. A polytopic membrane protein, termed NarK, has been implicated in nitrate uptake and nitrite excretion and is thought to function as a nitrate/nitrite antiporter. The longest-lived radioactive isotope of nitrogen, 13N-nitrate (half-life = 9.96 min) and the nitrite-sensitive fluorophore N-(ethoxycarbonylmethyl)-6-methoxyquinolinium bromide have now been used to define the function of NarK. At low concentrations of nitrate, NarK mediates the electrogenic excretion of nitrite rather than nitrate/nitrite exchange. This process prevents intracellular accumulation of toxic levels of nitrite and allows further detoxification in the periplasm through the action of nitrite reductase.

Girls hockey: New coach leads young team
With a new head coach and a young roster, there are a lot of unknowns going into the season for the Rosemount girls hockey team.
Last year's JV assistant coach Tom Conboy is taking over a team that lost several key players after going 8-18-1 against a tough South Suburban Conference schedule a season ago. Of the 31 players who stepped on the ice during last week's opening practices, 21 were freshmen or younger.

Wordless News: Legalizing 'Charlotte's Web' Medical Marijuana
By Maria Fabrizio
Originally published on Thu January 16, 2014 2:22 pm
Every day, illustrator Maria Fabrizio posts a news-inspired image on her Wordless News blog. This week, all of her pictures will be inspired by stories she hears on Morning Edition.
Today, Greg Allen's story caught her ear: It's about how parents of children with a rare seizure disorder want access to a marijuana extract to treat it. This variety of the drug, known as Charlotte's Web, has very little of the primary component that produces the high. Families have been moving to Colorado to get access to the therapy, and Florida is considering legalization.
