Because it's a Diablo game: the bosses never come to you.
Edited by JohnnyZeWolf#1953 on 7/19/2012 6:22 AM PDT
Because lazy game devs recycling content.
It's terrible and that's my least favorite part of the game.
You'll notice there's zero side areas in there, too. The few events (I can only think of one, it has no reward and just involves hitting six or so succubi to break their mind control over six humans who then run around until they die uselessly) are really lame and unrewarding as well.
Edited by Bianary#1174 on 7/19/2012 10:17 AM PDT
There is one event I found in there with a reward. Azmodan ambushes you after you open a chest with a large force. Reward being the chest.
Same reason you had to go to open a lever in the sewers in two separate dungeon but equally the same, to collect two vials of blood in two separated dungeons and drop on another two different dungeons (but equally the same):
There is one event I found in there with a reward. Azmodan ambushes you after you open a chest with a large force. Reward being the chest.
That was in the Bastion Keep basement.
Theres another one, not just that one. The one in Bastion Keep's basement is talking about shadows in the corner and your eyes n how you wont live to see your opponets, the one in the Crater is talking about your greed.

I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for that one.
To the people going on about 'recycled content', you'll find it in many other levels in all the acts. But is it really worth complaining about? This isn't even recycling, it's making a bunch of levels with the same theme. If you paint one room and you have some left over paint, is it 'recycling' to use it to paint another room? If the devs didn't do this, then either D3 would be really, really short or we'd have to wait another year or two for it.
I probably wouldn't be as annoyed by it if the entire sequence wasn't considered one big quest. If I wanted to play it on public, I would basically have to start all the way at the very beginning and fight all the way through just to get to Azmodan.
There's not enough change in pace, gameplay or scenery that makes this specific point in the game a pleasant play-through, but of course that's my opinion.
It's not just you, the pacing is terrible.
It basically feels like they thought "Oh Cydaea introducing herself and throwing four succubi at you is worth an entire boss fight, we can pretend that's a sub area." and that's how they justified FOUR AREAS OF SPIRAL STAIRS WITH NO SIDE AREAS OR QUESTS IN A ROW.
Then you get Cydaea, then one small zone, then Azmodan and you're done and going "What? Why wasn't the actual fight with Cydaea halfway down that to at least break up the monotony?"
Posts: 3,470View profile
I ran into this once in all my playthroughs so it's pretty rare and also pretty lackluster.
I do get annoyed at all the repetition throughout the game but Arreat Crater has to be the worst. The later levels are pretty small so in theory it probably totals up to the same real estate as the other repetitive areas in the game but there is something worse about going through repetitive levels over and over than having fewer but larger maps with maybe some outdoor area to break it up a bit.

|Bill Belichick: When it came to assembling 2014 roster, things just worked out
|02.02.15 at 12:34 pm ET
PHOENIX — When it comes to team-building, sometimes, the best moves are the ones you end up not making.
When the story of the 2014 Patriots is written, it will likely begin with the offseason pursuit of veteran Aqib Talib. When Talib ended up going to the Broncos, Bill Belichick and the franchise had to adjust their game plan. That set the stage for the Patriots pursuit of Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner, two veterans who played a colossal role in the success of the 2014 team.
"Sometimes things just work out. It's not always a great plan. Sometimes, it's just the way things fall," Belichick acknowledged Monday morning, roughly 12 hours after the Patriots captured their fourth Lombardi Trophy.
"We tried to sign Aqib (Talib) and we got in a negotiation with him and his representatives. He is a great football player who ended up signing with Denver," Belichick said. "Revis was available because Tampa released him. We were able to get involved in that one. We talked to Brandon, and in the end, we were able to work it out with both players.
"Sometimes, those things just work out."
In fact, the Patriots were able to hit on several personnel moves in the offseason, which included the return of receiver Julian Edelman, as well as the pickup of free agent Brandon LaFell.
"We talked to Julian, and unlike Aqib, that one we were able to work out," recalled Belichick. "In the process of doing that, we had conversations with LaFell and other receivers. That worked out as well.
"Sometimes, you just don't know how those things will go until you get into them," he added. "You talk to the players, you talk to the representatives, you try to figure out where you are as a team and you try to do what is best. In that case, both players, all three players really, Revis, Browner and LaFell, are three guys that came in that weren't on our team and made a real big impact on our team."
In addition, Belichick made a point of referencing the four players the Patriots acquired over the course of the regular season — defensive lineman Alan Branch, linebacker Jonathan Casillas, running back LeGarrette Blount and pass rusher Akeem Ayers — all of whom played a sizable role in the success of the Patriots.
"Guys that weren't with our team in the beginning of the year that came in later on and had a significant impact," he said. "Those signings were, I'd say, as much as part of the players wanting to play here as much as it was us wanting the players on our team. It worked out."
|Aqib Talib 'frustrated' following blowout loss in return to Gillette Stadium
|11.02.14 at 10:18 pm ET
FOXBORO — Aqib Talib's return to Foxboro did not go the way he had hoped.
Talib and the Broncos secondary got torn apart by Tom Brady as he threw for 333 yards and four touchdowns in the Patriots' 43-21 win at Gillette Stadium.
"It's bad, man," Talib said, who was clearly frustrated following the loss, speaking for less than a minute. "We don't like the performance. We have to watch the tape and get better."
The Patriots cornerback for a year plus didn't have much to say at all when asked what it was like coming back to Gillette Stadium and playing against his former team.
"It was a football game," he said.
Talib was matched up against a variety of Patriots receivers, not sticking to any one player throughout the game. Denver is now 6-2 following the loss, but the Patriots would hold the tiebreaker if the two teams were to finish with identical records.
The Broncos were never really in the game as after they grabbed a 7-3 lead with 3:54 left in the opening quarter, the Patriots went on to score the next 24 points to take a 27-7 halftime lead and never looked back.
"It's frustrating, man," Talib said. "That's why everyone here is mad and quiet in here. We lost. Anytime you lose it's frustrating. We just have to watch the tape and get better."
What are the Broncos going to do now, following a 22-point loss to one of their league rivals? Talib put it pretty simply.
"From here we are going to get on the bus, then get on the plane and we're going to watch the tape and get better," said Talib.
|Bill Belichick is 'way past' Wes Welker's hit on Aqib Talib
|10.29.14 at 2:12 pm ET
FOXBORO — Much was made of it at the time when Bill Belichick called it, "one of the worst plays [he's] seen" when Broncos wide receiver Wes Welker hit then-Patriots cornerback Aqib Talib on an apparent pick play across the middle of the field in last year's AFC Championship game — knocking Talib out of the game with a hip injury and the Patriots lost the game 26-16, ending their season.
But, Wednesday in advance of the Broncos-Patriots matchup this Sunday, Belichick said he's put that in the past and actually has "a lot of respect" for Welker.
"[I am] way past that," Belichick said on a conference call with the Denver media. "I have a lot of respect for Wes and what he did for us and what he's done for the Broncos and what he's done throughout his career."
Welker was a member of the Patriots from 2007-12 before the Broncos signed him prior to the 2013 season as a free agent when Welker and New England couldn't agree on a contract.

|A trip down memory lane with Aqib Talib
|10.27.14 at 6:16 pm ET
In his year-plus with the Patriots, cornerback Aqib Talib gained a reputation in the locker room with reporters as a terrific quote. In the wake of his discussion about the Patriots on Monday, in no particular order, here are our four favorite exchanges Talib had with the media over the course of the 2013 season:
1) "My bad, man. I had to say hi to Gisele." — Apologizing to WEEI's Mut & Merloni on Aug. 14 for being late to an on-air appearance
2) "It's fun. It's the NFL. You watch Tom Brady throw bombs, [and I think,] 'He's on my team. Hey man, that's fun!'" — Speaking with reporters Aug. 7
3) "I don't watch NFL Network or read the newspaper during the season. I'm a basketball fan. My TV pretty much stays on NBA TV. I don't really read what nobody says." — Responding to Stevie Johnson's claim the Patriots didn't have anybody who could stop him, on Sept. 5
4) "It's never personal man. It's never personal. I'm sure, if I see Steve, it'll be, 'Hey, what's up? How you doing?' It's never personal. Him and the other guy from St. Louis? That was personal. I mean, he didn't say he was going to punch me in my face after the game. He just told me to go get in the tub. Kind of thoughtful." — On his confrontation with Steve Smith during the loss to Carolina on Nov. 20
Aqib Talib is returning to Foxboro.
The former Patriots corner, who signed with the Broncos as a free agent in the offseason, will be making his first trip back to New England since joining the Broncos. The eminently quotable Talib was at his best when he met the Denver media on Monday to discuss his return.
Talib, who played a year-plus with the Patriots — he was acquired from Tampa Bay in a trade deadline deal in 2012 — isn't sure of the sort of reception he'll get when he takes the field, but he's pretty sure he'll be amped come Sunday afternoon.
"I don't know. We've got to put an amp meter on me or something," he told reporters Monday. "I don't really judge my 'ampness' for the game.
"But yeah, I get pretty excited for every game, though. So if I'm a little more juiced for this game, I guess you all will be the judge of that."
Talib said Monday he enjoyed his time in New England, which included two trips to the AFC title game.
"Just the repetitions — the experiences," he said when asked what made him a better player and better person in New England. "[When you] get older, you grow. I had a great coach, Bill Belichick — great coach. Playing against [QB] Tom [Brady], you learn stuff. Just getting older.
"It's a real good atmosphere," he added when asked about playing in Foxboro. "They play real well at home. It's definitely hard to play there. They've got a great crowd. They're going to be loud. They know when to be loud; they know when to get quiet. So it's going to be a great atmosphere. It's going to be a challenge."
The NFL trade deadline is set for Tuesday at 4 p.m., and there's already been some speculation about the Patriots pulling off at least one move beforehand. New England has never been shy about making trade deadline moves, including a last-minute pickup of cornerback Aqib Talib in 2012.
But according to Bill Belichick, when it comes to making deals, there's usually a greater chance of something happening over the summer than right at the deadline.
"I think this is a lot different than at the end of preseason when you're coming into the 53-man cut time," Belichick said on a conference call with the media Monday morning. "You're focused on your opening game, but you're also focused on your roster, and [so] is every other team. There's a lot of player movement at that time, as there is, I'd say through the first few weeks of the season on every team.
"If something comes along and it's something that we think would be worth considering, then we'd talk about it," he added. "But I wouldn't say that there's real heavy back and forth communication throughout the league on big trades. I'd be surprised if that took place on any team. It's just not that common this time of year. Could it happen? Yeah, there could be a couple trades. But it's a lot different than what it is at the end of training camp."

|Julian Edelman on MFB: 'We're building up for the backstretch' by getting more players involved
|at 12:04 pm ET
Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman made his weekly appearance on Middays with MFB on Monday, one day after Sunday's rout of the Bears. To hear the interview, go to the MFB audio on demand page.
While Edelman was the standout through the first few weeks — without much support from the rest of receiving corps — Tom Brady has been spreading out the passes the last couple of weeks. Rob Gronkowski and Brandon LaFell combined to make 20 catches for 173 yards and four touchdowns Sunday.
"You're getting production out of a lot of guys," Edelman said. "[Jonas Gray] came up again and had a big game. Timmy [Wright] comes in and has his touchdown. Gronk, Shane [Vereen] having some big plays. The more you have a lot more guys doing things, we're building up for the backstretch."
Added Edelman: "[LaFell is] playing lights out. He's making plays and scoring touchdowns. It's great for the offense."
Meanwhile, Edelman's production has declined. He had just one reception Sunday. He said it isn't a matter of defenses adjusting to him.
"I think it's more just: One week it's this guy, the next week it's that guy," he said. "Hopefully it comes back."
Added Edelman: "The offense has been doing well. You don't want to do anything differently to disrupt that. I'm sure I'll be getting targets my way or something like that. It's the flows of the game. You're going to be hot sometimes, and sometimes you're going to be playing a different role. As long as the team's winning, that's all it's about."
Next up for the Patriots is a game against the AFC-leading Broncos.
"I've played in a few of these now, so you're kind of used to it," Edelman said, adding: "It's a conference game. There's some meaning behind this game, because the winner can put themselves a foot forward in the standings. Its Denver, they're a good team. They've obviously been on TV a bunch. You've got Peyton Manning. But I don't necessarily play against Peyton Manning. I play against the defense."
Sunday will feature a matchup of Edelman against former teammate Aqib Talib, now a member of the Broncos defensive secondary.
"It's going to be fun, because I loved Talib when he was here," Edelman said. "We got along real well. I thought he was a great teammate and I enjoyed playing with him. So it's going to be fun. I also know T.J. Ward a little bit. We train in the offseason together. It will be fun to go out there and play against premier competition."

Seed Viability of Different Garden Ornamentals
I know that various seeds have different viability times from each other. I also know that conditions for germination can also vary. But I'd like to find a web site that will list the time seeds of various plants stay viable under the right storage conditions. I can find nothing specific - only generalities or those of plants like weeds or vegetables. Can someone point me to a good site or two, please?
I have a lot of seeds I've saved over the last few years & would like to share with friends & e-pals but sure don't want to send 'dead' seeds to them.
Hi Judy,
The site below has some flower seeds listed below the vegetable list. I find most flowers last at least a few years. Some will last a long time. The ones that lose viability quickly seem to be woodland type flowers. Many of them need to be sown immediately and kept moist.
If you still feel unsure about a particular seed, you could always do the paper towel germination test. I know it works, I've had sunflowers germinate that way. If you google that, you will get lots of hits.
Here is a link that might be useful: Seed Longevity Chart

Look the heart of this problem is that there is no way to save user tab groups. At the moment saving2012-01-04T06:20:16-08:00athlestonhttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/895688#answer-294479
Look the heart of this problem is that there is no way to save user tab groups. At the moment saving the last session has unpredictable results because of unpredictable user behavior.

For instance I have 6 named tab groups with 40-50 tabs total between my wife and I. She tends to open multiple FF windows, some with no tabs at all. If she closes the main window (with 50 tabs) _before_ closing the empty windows, then the last session saved will be one with no tabs. And there you go, all my careful tabs organization just vaporized with no way to recover from the 'sessionrestore.js' file.

The only solution I believe is to support user saving and persisting named tab groups
Here are the steps I followed to recover my lost tabs for those who experienced the same thing I wen2011-11-15T19:09:08-08:00FlipD9https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/895688#answer-275592
Here are the steps I followed to recover my lost tabs for those who experienced the same thing I went through:

Once you lost your tabs or windows, do not panic!

 Exit Firefox (Firefox > Exit).

 Open up your file recover program, I always go with Recuva. Make sure to do a Deep Scan for all file types if you have that option.

 Search within your user account (C:\Documents and Settings\User).

 Once the scan is finish, find all sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak within a few hours and recover them on a flash drive or a separate hard drive.

 I then used the link cor-el provide of dickvl's  bookmarklet script to recover my lost tabs and windows.

For those who do not want to bother with figuring it out follow the steps below:

 Open Firefox and then open up the bookmark side panel.

 Right click New Bookmark.

 The New Bookmark window will open. Fill out the following lines:

 To open all opened tabs and windows:

 Name: Open

 Location: javascript:(function(){var D=document,H,i=j=0,P=D.getElementsByTagName('PRE'),t='',R=/[^:]\{"entries":\[\{("url":"([^"]*)")\,("title":"([^"]*)"){0,1}/g,T,U;for(j=0;E=P[j];j++){H=E.innerHTML;while(R.exec(H)){U=RegExp.$2;T=RegExp.$4;if(T.length==0){T=U;}t+="<b>["+(++i)+"]</b> <a href="+U+">"+T+" ("+U+")<\/a><br>";}}with(window.open().document){write(t);close()}})();

 Click Add.

 To open all closed tabs and windows:

 Name: Close

 Location: javascript:(function(){var D=document,H,i=j=0,P=D.getElementsByTagName("PRE"),t="",R=/"state":\{"entries":\[\{("url":"([^"]*)")\,("title":"([^"]*)"){0,1}/g,T,U;for(j=0;E=P[j];j++){H=E.innerHTML;while(R.exec(H)){U=RegExp.$2;T=RegExp.$4;if(T.length==0){T=U;}t+="<b>["+(++i)+"]</b> <a href="+U+">"+T+" ("+U+")<\/a><br>";}}with(window.open().document){open();close();body.innerHTML=t;}})();

 Click Add.

 Open the folder containing all the recovered sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak.

 Go to Tools > Folder Options.

 On the Folder Options window, got to the View tab and uncheck Hide extensions for known file types.

 Click OK.

 One by one, rename sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak to sessionstore.js.txt and open the file in Firefox (File > Open File).

 Once loaded, click either Open or Close bookmark to open all the links from the tabs and windows inside sessionstore.js.txt on a new tab.

 Repeat the two step above until you go through all sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak you recovered or until you have all your tabs and windows. After you are done, make sure to check Hide extensions for known file types again.

Thank you cor-el. After spending some time reading the posts, I finally figured it out. Found a couple good sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak from the ones I recovered that I was able to start with. I hope that I can restore all the tabs and windows I have lost.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

I've also converted all the sessionstore.bak I recovered as well to sessionstore.js with no luck.

Bang & Olufsen announces the BeoVision 7-40 with Blu-ray
By Mick Webb
June 6, 2009
June 7, 2009 Bang & Olufsen has announced the release of the BeoVision 7-40 flat-screen LCD TV, incorporating a Blu-ray player and double-frame-rate technology.
Already established as a leading part of the Danish company's line-up, the stylish BeoVision series has been updated with a built-in Blu-ray drive, replacing the DVD drive. The 40-inch anti-reflection televisions also boast 120 Hz double-frame-rate technology with motion compensation. The fast picture refresh rate is designed to significantly reduce the blur normally associated with LCD units.
Sound-wise, the user can choose between two customizable loudspeaker options. The BeoLab 7-2 stereo loudspeaker is more suited to televsion, while the BeoLab 7-4, with a built-in acoustic lens, is better for surround sound.
Viewers also have a choice where they can place the television. There are motorized wall and table mounts as well as a programmable "turn and tilt" mechanism that can adjust viewing angle by 89° horizontally or vertically. The BeoVision 7-40 will also remember the last viewing position and return to it when switched on.
This, of course, can be accessed using the Beo5 remote control which can be also configured to control other household equipment like light settings or a security system. The sleek units are available in a range of colors, such as the traditional black and dark grey as well as red and gold.
Available this month, the BeoVision 7-40 retails for about USD$13,500. Head to the Bang & Olufsen website if you want a closer look.

Fire Sweeps Through Fire Island's Cherry Grove, Grove Hotel Reportedly Destroyed
A fire swept through Cherry Grove, the LGBT center of Fire Island, and damaged multiple buildings. The early-morning fire began at 1:30 A.M. at the intersection of Bayview Walk and Holly Walk. Among the buildings reportedly lost was The Grove Hotel, the largest hotel and home to the Miss Fire Island Pageant, the Ice Palace, homes, and a section of the boardwalk. [Metro]

Federal Judge Denies Family Medical Leave for Married Gay Spouses
US District Judge Reed O'Connor blocked a recent rule change to the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) from the Department of Labor (DOL), preventing legally married same-sex couples in Texas from exercising their FMLA rights. Because of the Supreme Court of the United States' decision in United States v. Windsor, DOL made a policy change from a "state of residence" rule to a "place of celebration" rule regarding marriage recognition. This change allows legally married same-sex couples access to their FMLA benefits no matter what state they live in. The DOL announcement stated: "The Final Rule amends the regulatory definition of spouse under the FMLA so that eligible employees in legal same-sex marriages will be able to take FMLA leave to care for their spouse or family member, regardless of where they live. This will ensure that the FMLA will give spouses in same-sex marriages the same ability as all spouses to fully exercise their FMLA rights." [HRC]
Swedish Dictionary Adds Gender-Neutral Pronoun
The official dictionary of Sweden will introduce a new gender-neutral pronoun next month as a way to address a person without revealing the person's gender. In Swedish, han refers to he and hon refers to she, and now hen can replace either. The new edition of the Swedish Academy's SAOL will include 13,000 new words.
According to The Guardian: "The word "hen" was coined in the 1960s when the ubiquitous use of "han" (he) became politically incorrect, and was aimed at simplifying the language and avoiding the clumsy "han/hon" (s/he) construction."
The word has been used since 2000 by the country's transgender community.

The World's First Super-Highway May Link Europe to the US
A connection from the US to Russia has always been a dream of US and Russian architects, but head of transportation company Russian Railways has bigger dreams. Vladimir Yakunin unveiled plans for a Trans-Eurasion corridor. Essentially, a super-highway and high-speed rail line that would link to networks in Europe and Asia and connect London and Alaska to Canada/US. The transcontinental route would also create and improve oil pipelines, electricity, and water services. The project would cost trillions, according to Yakunin.
"This is an inter-state, inter-civilization, project," he said at Monday's presentation. "It should be an alternative to the current [neo-liberal] model, which has caused a systemic crisis. The project should be turned into a world 'future zone', and it must be based on leading, not catching, technologies." [CNN]

Governor Mike Pence of Indiana Stands on the WRONG Side of History by Signing Anti-Gay Bill into Law
Despite angering people in his own party (like the mayor of Indianapolis), business owners who have threatened to move from the state, and convention planners (like GenCom), Indiana's governor, Mike Pence, has signed the "Religious Freedom Restoration Act" into law, which will legally allow businesses to discriminate against the LGBT community.
He wrote in a statement today:
Today I signed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, because I support the freedom of religion for every Hoosier of every faith.
"The Constitution of the United States and the Indiana Constitution both provide strong recognition of the freedom of religion but today, many people of faith feel their religious liberty is under attack by government action.
"One need look no further than the recent litigation concerning the Affordable Care Act. A private business and our own University of Notre Dame had to file lawsuits challenging provisions that required them to offer insurance coverage in violation of their religious views.
"Fortunately, in the 1990s Congress passed, and President Clinton signed, the Religious Freedom Restoration Act—limiting government action that would infringe upon religion to only those that did not substantially burden free exercise of religion absent a compelling state interest and in the least restrictive means.
"Last year the Supreme Court of the United States upheld religious liberty in the Hobby Lobby case based on the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act, but that act does not apply to individual states or local government action. At present, nineteen states—including our neighbors in Illinois and Kentucky—have adopted Religious Freedom Restoration statutes. And in eleven additional states, the courts have interpreted their constitutions to provide a heightened standard for reviewing government action.
"In order to ensure that religious liberty is fully protected under Indiana law, this year our General Assembly joined those 30 states and the federal government to enshrine these principles in Indiana law, and I fully support that action.
"This bill is not about discrimination, and if I thought it legalized discrimination in any way in Indiana, I would have vetoed it. In fact, it does not even apply to disputes between private parties unless government action is involved. For more than twenty years, the federal Religious Freedom Restoration Act has never undermined our nation's anti-discrimination laws, and it will not in Indiana.
"Indiana is rightly celebrated for the hospitality, generosity, tolerance, and values of our people, and that will never change. Faith and religion are important values to millions of Hoosiers and with the passage of this legislation, we ensure that Indiana will continue to be a place where we respect freedom of religion and make certain that government action will always be subject to the highest level of scrutiny that respects the religious beliefs of every Hoosier of every faith."

Expedia's Casual Inclusion of an Interracial Gay Couple is a Marketing A+
Expedia, the online travel-booking and planning website, together with VisitBritain again showed their positive stance on marriage equality and LGBT rights. Expedia, in promoting a contest to win a romantic trip in the UK, posted a photo of an interracial gay couple with the caption "Enter to win a romantic trip for two to Great Britain!" on both their contest's main website and on their Twitter page. Their main page also includes a happy lesbian couple strolling through London. The inclusion of gay couples among a string of opposite-sex couples on a romantic trip, is a step forward in gay marketing. Despite the usual social-media haters, the response has been overwhelmingly positive with users touting the company for their "balls" to include an interracial gay couple. In 2012 Expedia made headlines with their ad that featured a dad reluctantly going to his lesbian daughter's wedding. Expedia has shown us through their ad campaigns that the company is not only not afraid to include gays and lesbians in their ads, but also to tackle difficult subjects.
Geeks Assemble: A Gaming Convention Threatens to Pull $50 Million Convention Over Indiana's Anti-Gay Bill
If Indiana's governor, Mike Pence, signs this religious freedom bill (SB 10) that would allow for businesses to legally discriminate against LGBT persons, a gamer convention that brings in roughly $50 million may find another state to do business with. While corporations have already warned the state that this kind of bill would be detrimental to businesses, it looks like the gay geeks over at GenCon have yet another one-two economic punch. Adrian Swartout, the CEO of GenCom, has sent a letter he sent to Pence that the convention attracts "a diverse attendee base, made up of different ethnicities, cultures, beliefs, sexual orientations, gender identities, abilities and socioeconomic backgrounds." According to NNN: "GenCon draws some 56,000 people to the Indianapolis Convention Center every year, and brings $50 million in business to the city. Participants of all ages enjoy panels, celebrities, games, cosplay and more." Though they are contractually obliged to be in Indiana through 2020, Swartout says the law will definitely affect where the convention is held in future years.
By signing this bill, Pence is hurting the people of Indiana where it hurts the most—their wallets—in order to please a few far-right supporters.
Tell Pence to stand on the right side of history.

Samantha laughed and told me, that she also had interns that really couldn't cook at all, but I like cooking in Germany as well and it will be nice to cook here aswell!
She advocates kitchen-sharing. :-)
So now its about 21 o'clock, time to get to bed slowly.
First day at Bosch is near, I'm a bit curious what awaits me there but I just heared good things so I guess it'll be great!
Have still a good night in Germany, I'll do so later!

South Carolina, Charleston became important by 1690 as a trading post with a harbour depth of almost 14 metres allowing larger ships to dock right in the city.Much of the architecture has survived from the Colonial period and strict building codes mean that the historic feel of the place is well preserved. Beautiful Live Oak trees abound and it honestly feels like I've taken a step back in time.

Gary Cole to star in TBS comedy pilot
The casting lifts the contingency off the project, written and executive produced by "Monk" creator Andy Breckman.
"Nigel" centers on Nigel Wells (Cole), a veteran Philadelphia homicide detective who takes on his inexperienced, incompetent nephew as a partner.
"Nigel" is one of two hourlong cast-contingent pilots TBS ordered last month as part of the comedy-centered network's new programming strategy to expand its core lineup of half-hour sitcoms to include animated and hourlong series.
The other project, "Glory Daze," is now casting.
Cole most recently recurred on HBO's "Entourage." He also voices a recurring character on Fox's "Family Guy."

He has also been a North American pioneer in the philosophy of technology, publishing the widely recognized Technics and Praxis and Technology and the Lifeworld. More recently, he has turned to science studies or "technoscience." In these areas, his works Instrumental Realism (Indiana University Press, 1991), Expanding Hermeneutics:Visualism in Science, and Bodies in Technology are prominent. Ihde is researching imaging technologies and epistemology. He is active internationally and regularly gives doctoral seminars in several European countries. He directs the Technoscience Research Group and the Technoscience Research Seminar at the University. Postphenomenology: A Critical Companion to Ihde (SUNY Press, 2006), contains essays concerning Ihde's work by nineteen prominent scholars has also been recently published.

Is there a giant orange aphid with black legs?
Ok, so my reference book is stored, and I am too anxious here to take time to google what I have no idea about identity.
Please tell me these funny critters on my Moonlight Sonata flower scape are pollenators and not sucking aphids bleeding off the fragrance!
Pictures at 10:00 (no...I jest...I just took them) from my cell phone.
No idea...pic is not big enough...Here are some more possibilities:
Check out the Oleander aphid and see if that's it. http://www.mymonarchguide.com/2007/08/there-are-these-little-orange-things.html
Could be this?
see google link below
kinda rosy and not really orange, but... *shrug*
Here is a link that might be useful: rosy apple aphid pics
There is a Pest Forum that Ken and I frequent...uh, wait a minute, what did I say... don't say it, don't even think it...maybe I should say a Garden Clinic Forum and if you get a good pic the folks there should be able to ID it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Name that Pest
Thanks. Barring any dire consequences like being struck by lightning for what I did, I took things into my own (inept but effective) hands, and killed the little suckers.
Never saw anything like them before, like an aphid on steroids with black long spidery legs. When I approached, they hid behind the inflorescence. They gathered worshipfully at the top of the big unopened bud on Moonlight Sonata--a fragrant which is in the process of blooming now.
I put my hand over the top of the scape, closed my fingers and squeezed enough to demolish the colorful bugs. They were similar in composition to the soft-bodied aphids okay. They were not aggressive and did not bite me. Perhaps I could have exterminated them with a quick blast of water. I'd have preferred to let them be, but what if they were the kin of the wooly aphids which dropped in unannounced last week on the Yesterday's Memories.
Before any of the orange spidery aphid-looking bugs relatives come searching for these, I better find out if it was friend or foe. Hope it was not the last of its kind in the world, you know.
Perhaps it was the fragrance from Moonlight Sonata that drew them to this one plant, this one inflorescence that they seemed to dote on. Not on the open flower with pollen, on the exterior of the flower buds.
If I trust the sense of smell of these insects, it had a choice of several fragrant blooming hosta, all within a few feet of one another. Yet they CHOSE Moonlight Sonata. I'm thinking that this one is more fragrant of the early blooming fragrant flowered hosta.
Early in the season for fragrants as it is, finding which one carries the honey smell of the plantaginea fragrance, should not be a hard question to answer. Then I'll get a couple more Moonlight Sonatas!
The fragrance was so pronounced this afternoon, I easily detected it from 15-20 feet away. I was hoping it was lovely Holly's Dazzler with her unique purple/white flowers, but the bugs voted for Moonlight Sonata.
I'll have to write this observation in my notes for Moonlight Sonata.
Don, the rosy apple aphid was close, but my bugs had 2 parts. They had the rear part stuck up in the air. The legs were more spidery and not folded looking. The color is right though. But not the Schmoo body.
I could not find the Texas carpenter ant. Ant is a possibility, although I hope it is not an ant. The 2 body parts are ant-like. I'll do a search on that topic.
When I run across any insect life form with orange and black, I think of the butterflies, which color combo means to the birds this is not a good food source, may be poisonous or yucky. Some other insects adopt the color pattern but not the poisonous properties. I'm sure the wild birds SAW these insects, yet they did not pick them off as they could have. I think it may have to do with the color pattern.
Only finding what it is will reveal the nature of the critter.
I think picture #19 at the reference below might be our bug.
It is a milkweed assassin bug, nymph stage. Might be it.
The legs are right, the attitude of the rear end is right, could not tell any black on the body, only on the legs. Very bright orange.
Zelus longipes
Here is a link that might be useful: Milkweed assassin bug
It is the milkweed assassin bug. When I went after them yesterday, I missed some, they went into hiding. So this morning they were back at work, whatever that might be. How long do they stay, such as that, and how are they benefiting my garden, or MY HOSTA?
Now I notice them, plain as day. The little guys are Schmoos in orange suits.
This picture was with my Android tablet, Yesterday.
Really thank you all for taking an interest, and learning something important....not all bugs are bad, so check it out.
Now what happens to these nymphs? Anybody know offhand, in 20 words or less explain it to me so I don't have to wade through google to know what they look like after they morph into another plase.....these guys are incredible insects.
Not sure of all the instars they go through, but a number of pix at the link. As the link states:
"They are generalist predators feeding on a wide range of soft-bodied prey in garden and fields such as mosquitoes, flies, earthworms, cucumber beetles and caterpillars (fall armyworm, rootworm etc.)."
Edit: Are the legs banded like the pix at the link?
Here is a link that might be useful: Various instar pix

May I ask TJ about where the milkweed assassin came from.
In the last week, I brought home from Lowes 5 $2 reduced price shrubs. One was a milkweed.
I also picked up 3 milkweeds from a neighbor lady who is an organic gardener. And, got a couple of the angel trumpets from her, and a loquat and a fig. Since they are a generalist predator, could they live on other shrubbery besides hosta, milkweed, or whatever?
It is my belief that the nymphs came from the neighborlady, not from a commercial site where plants in their care are generally sprayed to debug them regularly.
Now. If I had used the ammonia/water 1:10 solution to spray where these bugs were living, would it have indiscriminately killed the nymphs as surely as my hand swiping over them only did away with a few if any?
This morning I moved another fragrant hosta in bloom beside the Moonlight Sonata. It was Hadspen White. I waited to see if any of the nymphs would migrate to the other hosta flower scape.
No, they did not migrate. They stayed totally on the Moonlight Sonata. I'm thinking these bugs have a fondness for the scent exuded by this particular hosta.

MAN THREATENING SEN. MURRAY TAKEN INTO CUSTODY.... After excessive amounts of overheated rhetoric during the debate over health care reform, a few too many Democratic lawmakers faced threats from unhinged activists. It's good to know law enforcement officials are taking these threats seriously, and aren't afraid to make arrests when warranted. (thanks to K.Z. for the tip)
Federal prosecutors have charged a Washington state man, Charles Wilson, with repeatedly making threatening calls to Sen. Patty Murray's district office, threatening to kill her because of her support for the health-care bill.
FBI agents say they arrested Wilson after getting telephone records and calling him to confirm that his voice matched the voice left on voice mail in Sen. Murray's office. Agents called, posing as opponents of the health-care bill, and engaged in a 14-minute conversation with him.
Federal prosecutors have charged a Washington state man, Charles Wilson, with repeatedly making threatening calls to Sen. Patty Murray's district office, threatening to kill her because of her support for the health-care bill.
FBI agents say they arrested Wilson after getting telephone records and calling him to confirm that his voice matched the voice left on voice mail in Sen. Murray's office. Agents called, posing as opponents of the health-care bill, and engaged in a 14-minute conversation with him.
According to officials, Wilson began making menacing calls months ago, but as the vote drew nearer, so too did the intensity of his anger. It culminated in expletive-laced messages in which Wilson said he wanted to kill the Democratic senator, and specifically referenced his expectation that it would only take a single piece of lead.
This is, as far as I can tell, the first arrest associated with right-wing opposition to the Affordable Care Act. Last week, a Philadelphia man was charged with threatening House Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.), but the deranged man had also threatened a variety of other officials, and was motivated by his belief that he is tasked by God to eliminate evil -- in other words, it wasn't related to health care legislation.
And cue Rush / Glenn / Bill / Sarah / Ann / Jonah / everyone else shrieking about the 1st Amendment in 3, 2, 1...
Killing is so un-health care'ish.
Expect for all the expletives, his phone calls detailed in the criminal complaint sound a lot like a Glenn Beck rant.
We will not be socialized..
You've awakened a sleeping giant...
You have trashed our constitution...
Maybe I will not have to go to the end-of-life classes you have planned for us...
Thank you for signing my death warrant...
Me thinks, somebody watchs too much Fox News.
No doubt Fox propaganda network will be out blaming the rape victim once again for being raped.
The man is 64 years old. Further investigation needs to find out exactly what he may be receiving from "the government". Anyone care to wager SS and medicare? Waterboarding will certainly do the trick.
And remember how outraged and offended they were, that a report said we should beware of right-wing violence in America!
The guy who threatened Cantor was declared unfit for trial and ordered to undergo psychiatric treatment.
About a week ago Beck had a radio rant, telling his fans to abjure violence.
Apparently he had a heads up, and was covering his ass. . .
flyonthewall, he is too young for medicare, but he might be receiving reduced SS.
Lipton moment...
Another day, another teabag kook du jour.
He sure is going to feel stupid when he finds out that his premiums are going to go down.
Yeah I'm betting there's a government subsidy lurking somewhere in his portfolio.
This is just the beginning of right-wing threats and violence my friends, just the beginning...
"law enforcement officials...aren't afraid to make arrests when warranted."
I assume that wonderful pun was unintentional?
All opponents of health care reform are murderers in waiting. Some of them just don't realize it yet.
Anyone care to wager SS and he will be signing up for medicare shortly? Fixed myself, sorry. Anyway, he may be signing up for free healthcare and room and board for perhaps the next 10 years.
Awww these poor Democrat babies, they are playing the 'victim' card for sure. Oh yes, right-wing 'extremism' and 'insurrection' are just overhyped if not made up liberal fantasies
It's becoming more clear & more undeniable that "conservatism" (at least as now manifested in the US) really is a mental illness, as the psychologists and sociologists have been suggesting.
The counterfactual nature of everything they say, claim to believe, and do, becomes more blatantly obvious with each passing day.
The most accurate representation of your basic teabeggar is a poorly-dressed upper middle-aged white guy standing in brilliant sunlight wearing a parka and holding an umbrella, screaming how the deluge of biblical proportions is at this moment pouring down on us all, and will surely drown us if we don't put him and his tribe back in charge.
If they were just screwing up their own lives, it'd be borderline hilarious. But because the corporate media treat such people as not only normal, but normative as well, they screw up everyone else as badly as, or worse than, themselves.
And (partly because of that same corporate media, partly because the Pubbies/teabeggars know they're losing, and get more psychotic in response) it's likely to get worse before it gets better.
Thank God the American people are for the most part smart enough to realize that the Publicans/teabeggars/media are lying to them. Too bad the damage had to get so severe in order for that to become so clear.

Originally written on Baseball Hot Corner | Last updated 3/27/15
"The Ian Kinsler Trade" sounds a lot better than "The Prince Fielder Trade" if things work out best for the Detroit Tigers over the long haul. Ian Kinsler has moved to Detroit in 2014 and is off to an excellent start in the Motor City. With a well-timed hot start, Kinsler is quickly becoming a fan favorite. He has taken up residence in either of the top two spots of the Tigers batting order and in his first 78 plate appearances has posted a very tasty slash-line of: .319/.359/.486. There have been no major base-running gaffes that have plagued Kinsler at times in his career and his defense has looked generally above average, if not a little stylish, in the early going of the season. Kinsler's offense has been sorely needed. The Tigers aren't exactly knocking the cover off the ball in the early going. Miguel Cabrera's slow start has some fans worried (though the styling's of Charlie Leesman and the White Sox bullpen may have fixed that on Tuesday night with a Cabrera-barrage that co...

Mac STO client fails to go to main menu
I wasn't able to find a troubleshooting page. If somone could provide a link, I would appreciate it, thanks.
Here's what I've done and seen, so far:
1) I downloaded the Launcher.
2) I ran the Launcher.
3) I logged into the Launcher. This caused the Launcher to download the client.
4) At least once, the Launcher would unexpectedly quit. On each such instance, starting the Launcher again would cause a dialog box to appear for a split second, disappear, and quit the Launcher. Starting the Launcher yet again opens the normal Launcher window, and logging in resumes the download.
5) Once the download is complete, I would click ENGAGE.
6) My monitor resizes from it's normal 2560*1440 to 1280*960. (Yes, this switches the aspect ratio from 16:9 to 16:12.)
7) The screen goes mostly black, except for the white CRYPTIC logo in the middle of the screen and a gray loading bar at the bottom that slowly fills with white.
8) When the loading bar fills, the screen goes to black. A medium-sized rectangle flashes once in the upper-left corner of the screen (I'm eyeballing it at maybe 300*300 pixels), and then the monitor resizes back to 2560*1440 and shows me my normal Finder desktop, as though the application has quit. However, 3 or 4 "Star Trek Online"s would apper in the Command-Tab listing of applications to switch to. I can't get to any STO interfaces by Command-Tabbing to any of those instances.
Has anyone else been seeing this? Is there an error log anywhere that I can look for?
