oh damn I want an all out mass effect mod >_< but these ships are looking great.
YES, I have been waiting for something like this for so long >_<
oki, thought so :P It looks like it gets a lot easier/faster using those.
Don't know if you ever watch these comments or anything but do you use some kind of touch screen when you make the pictures (you know, the ones where you can draw with a pen on a touchscreen so it resembles normal drawing) or is it made 100% by mouse/keyboard?
//a tablet, like TDT-Alpha said, my guess is that you use a tablet anyway :P
yes you can :)
there are mods for almost everything ;)
Truly awesome :D
I think the compass should still be there, but it should not show the exact locations for quests, like objects, npc.s etc, it gets so extremely easy that way :/ or make it so you can toggle it on/off :P
awesome video ;)
They are weren't powered by the control hub but they got their directives from there, so in the early days when the control hub was destroyed they just powered down because they didn't know what to do. After the defeat at Naboo they got a bit of a overhaul to remove that incredibly large disadvantage.
instakilled if you get too close? >_>
ofc it must be!
Those cat pillars... catpillars... caterpillars >_> anyway would be great sentries, anytime anyone walks on them they would start to 'mjau' and warn everyone :D
sweet, finally some real screenshots of the engine :P
gah I really want to play >_< had problem with start-up so couldn't :(
Vid is really good :P
I think it should be for sins, so many more possibilities using that game engine i think.
well that sure looks awesome, keep up the work! I really want to play this >_<
gief me that hive-ship and ill smush the others up o_o
there are parts that you can download (the parts are below 400 MB) and I have downloaded them without any problems.
Well one of those are audience award at least :P
Yes, windows 7 64 bit - using steam, bought. Tried to start in compatibility mode and as administrator.
I still get the "Unspecified Error. Game will now exit" even with the torrent version, think I'll just wait for 1.5...
I think warhammer exe is the same as the one at the desktop.
but dammit... thought i fixed it but no-no :/
I'm playing steam version so it is fully updated, got the real Total war 2 +kingdoms games, no piracy.
I first installed the " 1. FULL ENGLISH ver. Call of Warhammer: Total War" МOD v. 1.4.4 with music " but then I got the "Unspecified Error. Game will now exit" error, then I installed it manually by "Mod parts separately", still got the exact same problem.
Got any advice?
is it supposed to be started by:
play -> Medieval II: Total War
or from an expansion (like the lotr mod), guess its by medieval 2 right, at least thats how i start it atm.
I'm running legal steam version, so it should be patched up.
I installed the vers.... wait a minute... i may know the problem >_>
same problem as 'sir1mi', I start it and it says "Unspecified Error. Game will now exit". Can't even get to start menu.
garrr, how far away are you from making a little release >_<
Biome: Swampy woodland.
occurs: Wetland, dense forests, rainy (stormy) area.
resources: Lots of water (but dirty).
elevation: Ground-level.
climate: Warm.
topography: Often very flat.
biodiversity: High.
autotroph niches: Mid-sized plants but huge trees.
heterotroph niches: Plenty of tiny (insects, frogs, snakes etc) and mid-large (think ~crocodile) animals, few large that can traverse the landscape without any trouble, both from the landscape or other animals.
other: Harsh landscape, dangerous to drink the water directly from the swamp, most animals have some sort of poison and they are highly territorial. Almost all animals have developed some sort of camouflage, carnivorous animals uses its camo to lay in wait for pray, herbivores uses it to hide from them. Very hard to walk through the swamp if you are not developed for swimming in low water levels, or have very powerful legs. Trees do not have lower branches, only at the top to catch the light, so it usually is very gloomy at the bottom of the swamp.
player constructed building or pre-made(always exist on the map)? If pre-made is it possible to take it for your own and use it or is it just eye-candy?
b-wing fighter
Continuing Mikofski
space slug
-.- doublepost
Menu, fresh penguins off the ice.
more fun to create your own stuff :P
so apart from being able to fly through space, enter atmosphere and fly anywhere on the planet you will also be able to dive under water :P nice
so apart from being able to fly through space, enter atmosphere and fly anywhere on the planet you will also be able to dive under water :P nice
I have an old keyboard myself >_> from pre-2000
Actually, I had a new one but it sucke.. so I changed back to the old one that I use now :D somehow.. I just love it xD
Think mine is almost identical to his >_>
The picture is also extremely small.
Stargate did it!
Some news are better than no news and that I'm glad of, good to see that you are working on it.
hope they are as dangerous as they are in the series :P
That's a really nice armour system.
can't see why not, did a quick search and found this:
I'm swedish and it pains me every time someone writes "A" like "Å" in a Stargate related matter :P
Though I like it, subtle and mysterious, just make it sound good with what comes afterwards.
Throw rare candy - hnnnnnng
quick note, on the text it says:
"can house up to 7 Families. I
supports an Oxygen Filter... etc etc"
guess it should be "It supports", other than that, nice :)
i am hungry for MORE!
//edit: sorry, I was simply hungry for food. But I'd still like some more awesome pictures
nice, didn't think you would go so far as to actually take direct references from the anime
*to this extent that is
No I mean 1 min into this video: Youtube.com
okay :P Maybe you'll get some help by someone if you're lucky >_<
looks really good, great textures and all. And looks really cool when looking down over midgar
(bug that I saw)
the door in the first video @ 01:00 goes over the wall when opened
And finally a question: Will you be remaking some of the animations? Because I don't like the pistol aiming in fallout3 at all... you don't shoot from the hip...
Anyway, great videos
oh god, the stairs...
nice :D
Could you upload a side view as well?
It's a great mix imho, would fit one of those time when something big is about to happen :P
Really nice picture... i mean reaaally nice
I'm so impressed by your work. I love aoe(1) but I really can't play it nowadays since it feels soooo slow (to the point it's actually just annoying >_<) and this reminds me very much of aoe (and aom) very much, the artwork in the game is really amazing.
So with that said I wish you all a merry, merry christmas :)
Let there be hair!
they say until they get close
thats a big booty
yea, the progress is really looking good, but there is some animations there in between that is missing, to make it look more fluent.
hehe, now you just need the hand-seals and then a little bit of "innocent girl" animation for the she-Naruto :P
Also, will you be giving them the correct hand-seals for the jutsus, I mean, to make sexy no jutsu you would need to do the "Ram" sign IIRC.
Can't wait to play 1.5 :P
damn you are working quite fast, how many different characters do you intend to make?
dat ***
ty ty
gzaaaah i want to play this :( only lags when I play but I got a good computer (yes I will whine about it here too in hope someone knows a solution).
anyways, that ship looks really amazing.
neato, look forward to see further work on animations and game mechanics.
yeah, I agree, should be completely flat on the ground, but I don't complain :P
gotta suck to live underneath that lavafall >_>
That also is from Scotland!
//or they have a very sharp fog edge, yours is very smooth and the natural shadow on the building improves the look very much.
ah thats nice, that the building is also covered by the shadow, unlike many games were the entire building is visible even if only have taken away a bit of the shadow from it.
we seem to have a problem with our navigation system...
read the latest news here, it clearly says that if people upload maps that does not contain anything special they will be deleted, due to many people (me included) is not very happy about logging into moddb and become happy about seeing lots of updates on minecraft just to later see that they are uploads of some small houses or something...
ye, other companies really need to learn from this .D
You've done some awesome things ;) Impressive work.
lulls @slow-motion explosions :D
Good for you ;) Ninth place ain't bad at all.
Nice, looks authentic (fallout 1-2 ish :P)
I like your cimbining idea :P
guess he don't like clowns >_> or mcdonalds :D
Vics power armor >_>
ill just go over here.... and **** in my pants by myself >_>
aaaaawesome pic :P
Have you constructed the Seat of Seeing or is it on a to-do list?
I hope you are not skipping it :P
<_<... second note to self, pack weapons... and good runningshoes...
there's a solution for everything :D
note to self: pack torches... lots of them.
nice ;) this was the pic i was waiting for :P
want.... to... see... STUFF >_< Still great that you are being nominated.
I was kinda surprised when I found this hole... (first time I found it I was standing right on top of it, luckily enough for me i didn't carry anything special :P (sorry about the window borders)
Ehm.. after I jumped down... soz for the window borders, but it would have taken me extra 15 seconds to remove them!
should make a ship from independence day too :D
The water fits with the laser ^^ then just put ruined/burning houses everywhere :D
hmm... why dont I do that >_>
PS: It would be nice with some furnitures, Notch, like a bed. Or maybe some chairs, kitchen stuff... You know. So we can fill out our houses execpt paintings, torches and lava
I'd really like to have useless stuff to put out in a house :P Like beds, chairs, tables, just to fill out the voids
welcome to mario minecraft, making blocks blockier.
looks really nice, they buildings blend in very well.
(get it? lol)
very nice, one of my favorite heroes when I played dota ;)
(but I dont like that they didn't go by D&D Drow characteristics...)
of the current character arts that are out, this is easily my fav ;)
no changelog?
I just want to know if this project is dead and you are just giving us the remains, haven't been much updates for a while :/
finally some news :) was afraid this proj was dead. Hope you get some good animators then ^^
combat animation looks cool, hope you make it even more smoother
misspelling there:
you only have "no there must an other way" :P
or it just looks like an other, might be another, still you miss "be"
and if that would fail... kill it with more fire?
1. Who will we play as in the mod?
2. If we get a megaüber level will we always be inferior to people like sauron, Gandalf etc (I assume they will be in the game).
3. How will you handle population? -One thing I don't like about vanilla oblivion is that you see a huge town but when you walk inside there are like 15 citizens, will it be the same or have you boosted population a bit so cities might actually feel big.
thaaaaaank yoooouuuuuu
Nice, looks really good.
and now you need the arms grabbing for your soul :D
think that sums it up
nice, might that fenced area be where naruto and sasuke fought? It doesn't have 2 water tanks, thats why im wondering :P
I knew I should have skipped the sardines.
**knock knock**
pizza delivery!
didn't work, eh.
wth is wrong with the hmm star destroyer?, in the middle, is he on crack?!
just wait 'til mommy gets back
lame joke is still fun joke
this be my tree trunk bitch!
sweet, never liked the bundle :P
nice :D
Looks interesting, will be keeping an eye out for more videos :)
whii, iv been there... but not under those conditions xD
Why so srs?
Hrm.... its not the witch king, his crown is different.. so... damn xD and sauron have a full cover helmet... hmm.. King of the dead?, but then hes supposed to be a ghost :( iunno :/
:D neato, looking awesome. Can't wait for the august update. If i remember correctly you said there will be a big update then :D
oooh nice, really really nice. :D
these bfme1 forts are awesome :D
I can see youuuu
well, it never played a major role in battles in the old games. It's a support craft, maybe giving a major LoS, being able to see invis units and giving it some light armaments. I think high LoS is enough :P it gives major benefits in battle.
you need to put a hello kitty sign on it!
sweet ^^ (voted for new design)
whats your average polycount on weapons? or what is the max polycount for your weapons.
STARFISH REALLY LOVES YOU! (charlie the unicorn, you'll understand if you have seen it >,>)
hmm, the old scouts expression looks like: WTF?! >.< and the new one looks more sneaky :P I'd vote for the new one but I would like just a bit more details on the front, it looks a bit naked there.
looks really good, really nice texture
either visa or paypal - for me either works fine.
hope you guys get what you need :P I really want this mod to be accomplished, wished I could help but I think that I actually need to finish(start) programing school first xD
That is awesome :P
"Furthermore we have added several effects like eruptions to it, which will not effect the structures of ships."
It would have been fun if there is like 0.001%/map that a solarflare can erupt and destroy all ships on the map xD
aw man, you make the best videos xD
hahahaha rofl awesome xD A NEW CONTEST! WHO CAN DO THE BEST ANIMATION WITH THE WHALEMAN!
RAGDOLL! what else is there to be said
Video not found :/
ah super :D I feared that the game would somewhat bad ai but now those fears are gone.
just drinking and waiting for a carnivor to show up
idd, looks great
aaaw is that really ingame, it looks really nice
pefect :D
and another question -.-'
Do you have a max count for houses and stuff like in aoe3. Just wondering becouse I like to build big cities :D
wiii you heard my cries for a pic :P
one question: Can you rotate buildings, or are they set to one place?
That was actually really nice, closeup they were not so nice but they worked really fine in the isometric view, atleast thats what i think :/
And the animations are really smooth with these 3d models
ooh thats my new background
that kinda looks like half life 2 gunship :P
Nice work on his bankai
aha :P
who is these days a robot
Whats that on the right, 4th place to the top. The thing that looks like a shield or something :P
NO! we cannot fire on them, they would only absorb its power and grow stronger.
ye really impressive
no actually he is the normal one, hes actually looking at the enemy while the other pose for the camera.
f*ck off this is ingame :O its looks so.... damn
wow, that looks like it is cut directly from the series
those goblins are so dead...
well these soldiers belong to slaneesh and we all know that they are some fancy pancy girls, real soldiers belong to Khorne.
thats probably whay they think too.
well there are aliens in hl and in halo AND Half Life starts with an H wich Halo does aswell, THERES THE CONNECTION >,>
... and gordon would kick masterchiefs *** :D
I do not believe a scientific researchstation of this proportions had leaking tanks with hazardous materials inside of them.
nah, i think 18k works for fighters, but it shouldnt be more :/
and ofcourse it depends on the computer
why replace a model that already exists in the game.
Well nukes aint that impressive in outer space, they dont really do as much damage as they do on earth.

For many students (and the parents, counselors, and teachers who support them!), the application writing component can be the most challenging aspect of the admissions process. But what really makes a "successful" essay, and how can we ease this process for students? In this webinar, we will discuss how to help students find their voices, narrow relevant writing topics, and write and perfect essay drafts. We will also discuss the specific role of an IEC within the essay writing process, and how best to support students while empowering them to be independent writers. While this webinar will focus primarily on the main college essay, we will also briefly discuss individual school supplements as well as writing samples. Please join UC Irvine Extension in welcoming Emily Grey Goldman, professional member of HECA and founder of Grey Guidance, as she shares insight into supporting students in the most successful writing process possible. The webinar will also include pre-registration advisement for individuals interested in UC Irvine Extension's fully online Independent Educational Consultant Certificate Program.
Imagine a classroom in which students are committed to learning AND have a desire to deepen their understanding of content. This is the drive of cognitive curriculum, a new and exciting way to enhance learner engagement and encourage students to deliver their own best results. This webinar will outline the concept of building cognitive capacity, to provide the tools for teachers to empower students to learn at their highest level. In today's modern classroom, isn't that what matters most?
Academic conversations are an important part of the Common Core anchor standards for speaking and listening across disciplines. How do students, teachers, and parents differentiate collaborative conversations for advanced learners? Find out how the elements of differentiation apply in this webinar.

Just had to change pictures when I noticed that my first post showed violet flowers when in fact they are pinkish.
So...after taking the pictures this time I put the plant up to the computer screen and matched hues.
Still as many blooms as I have ever had on a catt.

By using an external magnet, the sensor has a wear-free operation. In addition, the unit's housing as a height of less than ¼", is rated to IP60, and the circuit board withstands a high level of shock and vibration.

If you want color...this pillow has it. I am very pleased, it is very beautiful, colorful and cheery...a real mood lifter. Everyone who has seen the pillow has given many compliments and wanted to know where I purchased it. From all the pillows I have purchased over the years, this is one of the very best. I highly recommend it.
Hodge podge of colors made up into messy flowers.....I like the pillow a lot. It makes a strong statement...one doesn't need more than one of this particular pillow.
I love this pillow! It has so many warm, yet vibrant colors that tie in so nicely to the decor in my home.
This pillow is perfect in my livingroom. The colors are beautiful and much more vibrant than in its picture. I am a lover of pansies and this is definitely a keeper.
I have never paid $40 for a pillow in my life, but I thought this was so beautiful that I purchased it for myself as a Christmas gift. It arrived and was incredibily beautiful. Maybe a tad less vibrant than in the picture, which worked better for my decor. The stitching detail on the front was very nice and the pillow definitely looked like a show piece. Then I turned it over and noticed that the back is made from satin (the front being more of a canvas/burlap sturdier fabric), and that the satin was ripping at the seams in FOUR places (upon arrival -- I can't even imagine how badly it would rip if we'd kept it and laid on it!). The satin is a very poor choice for the back. It just shreds at the seams and I was very sad to have to return my showpiece pillow the same day I received it:(

New Ge microwave and gas oven in house just bought replacing it .
Hi I am replacing this set up with the dual fuel GE Cafe and I was going to get a Kobe hood but then changed my mind to a vent a hood as it is what I had before for 8 years and while it was hard to clean I felt it did awesome job. So the setup up in here now I do not get . The gas range is a regular gas range but it does say it has one high output burner . How high I do not know I can not find the directions. So when I have cooked with it it is so frustrating. When doing a stir fry it really spreads the grease all around . It goes up all over microwave front and the vents on top of that and up to the above the microwave cabinet. I have never used or had an over the microwave unit. Is this typical of this type of setup. I put the fan on the high setting. Tonight I did sauteed chicken with some cranberries and balsamic vinegar . It was a mess all over the microwave door again and up to the cabinets. I hate it :( So anyone out there is this typical or do I just have a bum unit in here ?
If it's a new range the specs can be found online at geappliances.com or a retailer site like ajmadison.com.
OTR microwaves typically have low airflow, zero capture area, and only really cover the back burner. Yes, they're all not very good, that I know of. By design. Worse if it's set up as recirc rather than vented. Get a real hood.
Oh I am getting a real hood . I just wondered about these units and maybe I was using it wrong or something. The big burners to go with microwaves should be then made with burner that is more powerful in back . That is what I would think they should or would do but alas it is not so . I can not wait to get my Vent A Hood in here and my new GE Dual fuel !

MPM scores $550M life science fund
- Daniel S. Levine
(Page 2 of 2)
The life science venture capital firm MPM Capital LP has closed its latest fund with a total of $550 million.
The BioVentures IV fund brings the total capital under management at MPM to more than $2.5 billion.
The close of the fund reflects a growing buildup of investment capital for life sciences as M&A activity and a selective IPO market has created liquidity for investors. It follows the close in January of Abingworth's $600 million life science fund and the close last month of SV Life Sciences new $572 million fund.
The new MPM fund, though sizable by most standards, is less ambitious than its predecessor. In 2002, MPM closed on an eye-popping $900 million BioVentures III fund, the largest life science fund ever raised.
Luke Evnin, MPM general partner in South San Francisco, said the intent with the previous fund was to invest in a number of $50 million to $100 million deals, but the firm only found one appropriate investment in that range. As a result, it ended up with what he called a "somewhat ungainly portfolio" of 37 companies. The smaller fund size for BioVentures IV in part is to build a portfolio of 20 to 30 companies with investment ranging from $20 million to $50 million.
"That led to our thinking that we really needed to continue to execute on our core strategy, which is what this fund will allow us to do," he said.
MPM will spread the new fund across companies at various stages of development.
The firm expects to invest about 85 percent of the fund into biotech and specialty pharmaceuticals and about 15 percent in medical technology, tools and diagnostics.
About 80 percent of the fund will be invested in the United States and the remaining funds will be invested in Europe and Asia.
The fund will not only invest in private companies, but also expects to purchase private equity offerings in publicly traded companies or so-called PIPE offerings.
About half of the capital for the new fund comes from existing limited partners of MPM, including GE Healthcare Financial Services, the Kauffman Foundation and Japanese conglomerate Itochu. New investors include AlpInvest, Dow Employees' Pension Plan, and Union Carbide Employees' Pension Plan.
Though the fund just closed, MPM had begun investing through it in the second quarter of 2006 and has already built a portfolio of seven companies. It said because of early strong performances from Memory Pharmaceuticals and Peplin, both public companies in the portfolio, the fund is already generating a double digit internal rate of return.
Evnin said one of the biggest changes in the landscape in recent years has been the emergence of a robust M&A marketplace for life science companies.
He said because of the challenges faced by big pharma companies to rebuild their pipelines and generate growth, particularly in the face of blockbusters going off patent, he expects the M&A activity to continue and provide an important exit strategy for a large portion of the investments in the portfolio.
"We are definitely mindful of that and want to make sure we build into the portfolio companies that are going to line up well with M&A," he said. "That definitely factors into the balance we try to strike in the portfolio."

What was the final gravity? Are we talking 18% here? If so I'd put it on some oak and age it for a while. The upside is it should be pretty awesome when it's done. And with a hell of a kick!!!!!
It's currently still going I have racked it in to a secondary and it's still bubbling away.
apple wine is yummy but it comes out hot, im going to start my gravity at exactly 1.090 next time i make it instead of 1.100
I started a batch of apple wine a few weeks ago using a recipe from a book called "Home Winemaking Without Failures" by H.E. Bravery. According to that recipe the wine is best aged about nine months. I assume that's the time it will take to adequately mellow out.

Go Green Yarn Caddy
By: Tina Johnson
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Use a large 1 gallon plastic vinegar bottle to create a handy yarn caddy with this idea from Tina Johnson. Go green, save money and make your crochet and knitting easier.
- 1 gallon plastic vinegar bottle (or similar gallon bottle)
- Paring knife
- Scissors
- Hole punch
- Flat rock or similar for weight
- yarn
- Remove the label and wash the bottle. Let it dry.
- *Cut the bottle straight across were the top of the label would being sure to leave 2 inches of plastic uncut under were the handle is (this will act as a hinge).
*Safety First: I placed the bottle on my counter, holding onto the handle (my hand was resting on the counter to stabilize the bottle) I very carefully inserted a pointed blade paring knife into the bottle (you need roughly a 1/2 inch long cut). I also made sure that the cut I made was away from my hand that was holding the bottle. Placing scissors into the cut I finished my cutting I needed to do around the bottle.
Any children creating this project will need an adult to complete this step for them.
- On the other side of the bottle directly across from the 2" "Hinge" punch a hole in the top half of the bottle about ½ inch above the cut line and one in the bottom half of the bottle (1/2 inch below the cut line) directly under the top one using a paper hole puncher.
- Find a medium size flat rock outside that you can wash and place in the bottom or something you have around the house to put in the bottom to weigh it down.
- The Fun Part! Drop your yarn skein in bottle and feed the yarn from the center of the skein through the top opening of the bottle. Thread a scrap piece of yarn through the holes you made using the hole puncher and tie it like you would your shoe laces to securely close it.

Neat idea.
My mom used to use 2-liter plastic soda pop bottles. I like the vinegar bottle better because it has a handle already.
Hey,, Folk did you know that a large pickle contanier , and drill a hole on the top, they work really great too... I'm 62 and I did my own drilling . it was very easy...now of course you want to use the plastic containers. Our if you all go to a warehouse that food comes in the larger container. they work just the same. Linda in Tucson
I like this idea but I use a two liter pop bottle and cut an opening in the side. Then I put masking tape around the opening so I will not cut or scratch myself on the cut edge of the plastic. I want a green idea for yarn that I can use but be able to remove the yarn from the container without cutting it. I like to be able to free my yarn from the container some times or even change yarns for other projects. I always have more than one project going at a time. One easy and one more demanding to work on depending on my mood or how my day was. Also, I don't like to take big bottles with me because they don't fit in my project bag. So I need to be able to free my yarn.
You could use colored tissue paper squares to decorate it and then lacuer it with something that's waterproof
I use big coffee cans for my crochet thread and they will also hold a skein of yarn (You have to bend the skein a little, but it works.) I just wash the can good and put a hole in the middle of the plastic top of the can. You don't need to weight it down because the can is heavy enough to stay on the floor. Hope this helps someone. Cherry
I too make a yarn holder out of a similar type bottle however I cut a flap at the bottom we poke a small hole so if you desire to tie it closed you can. I don't I let it just stand in the bottom of the bucket and stand it with a few others in a 5 gallon bucket from the local bakery. You can put 3 gallon yarn holder bottles or if you use 12 gal or quart sized blench bottles you can put up to 8 in the bucket. I decorate the bucket and have my husband make holes along the ridge below the cover and make a padded seat cover. I crochet and my little grand daughter sits on her special little stool.
Thanks for the HOW-TO, my Husband was bugging me about the mess of yarn that I always asked for his help with. Its not as easy as the old days when people sat on the porch at night and Husbands helped wind the yarn balls. by the way, I found that a well washed gl. Milk jug fits balls of yarn very well also. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE TIP. )

|Years active
|France, Northern Italy, several countries in Latin America and North Africa

|American and Russian mafia, Cosa Nostra, Ndrangheta, and Triad
The Corsican mafia is the collective criminal groups originating from Corsica. The Corsican mafia is one of the most influential organized crime structures in France, also active in many African, Russia and Latin American countries. One of the most important groups of the Corsican mafia is the Brise de Mer gang.[1]
|This section requires expansion. (January 2011)
The Unione Corse and the French Connection era[edit]
For more details on this topic, see Unione Corse.
The Unione Corse was the general name given by American authorities to the major Corsican gangs who organized the French Connection, the heroin trade between France and the U.S. from the 1950s to the early 1970s.[2]
The Corsican mafia today[edit]
|This section requires expansion. (January 2011)
The end of the French Connection caused the disbandment of many Corsican clans involved in the heroin trade.[3] But the evolution of Corsican Mafia has continued in several illegal activities (hold-up, racketeering, casinos, illegal slot machines, various drug dealing, and prostitution). From the 1980s to the end of 2000s, Corsican mafia was constituted by two major groups; the Brise de Mer, based in Northern Corsica, and the Colonna clan (also named "Jean Jé Colonna's family"), based in Southern Corsica. But since 2007, a violent internal conflict troubled the Corsican mafia, occasioning around 102 murders in the Island. This conflict caused the fall of this two groups and the rise of new Corsican gangs.[4] Today, the Corsican mafia is constituted by a lot of gangs or families, allied or rivals. The Venzolasca gang, the Brise de Mer successors, the "Petit Bar" gang ("Little Bar" in English), the Valinco mobsters and the Corsican mob of Marseille, are the most famous of them.
Criminal activities of the Corsican mafia[edit]
- Money laundering
- Racketeering
- Drug trafficking
- Arms trafficking
- Prostitution
- Extortion
- Robbery
- Corporate crime
- Tax evasion
- Contract killing
- Casinos and gambling
- Political corruption
- Usury and loansharking
Popular culture references[edit]
- The French film A Prophet (2009) shows the gradual rise of a young prisoner, cornered by the leader of the Corsican gang who rules the prison.
- The French television series Mafiosa references a Corsican gang directed by a woman.
- In the film American Gangster, the Corsican mafia attempt to murder Frank Lucas after he puts them out of business through his monopoly, on the heroin trade.

Martin Lindstrom | April 23, 2002 | Comments
A company's URL is an extension of its brand. Keep is simple, keep it consistent, and your customers won't have to guess where to find you online.
More and more, global brands are messing around with one of their most important online identifiers: their URLs. In plain language, a company's domain name is its Internet address.
A few years ago, the brand challenge was to secure every possible exposure for the URL in all communications materials. Having achieved maximum exposure, companies have moved on to a new problem: which URL to use. A growing number of companies, especially those purveying a multitude of products or those with massive global representation, invent as many URLs as they do Web sites.
Take Coke. The URL that most likely comes to mind is www.coke.com or www.coca-cola.com. Both URLs work. Do both lead to the one and only official Coke home page? No. Type in www.cokecce.com or www2.coca-cola.com, www.ltg.coca-cola.com or www.coca-colascholars.org. Coke promotes hundreds of domains all over the world. For this giant, a universally recognized and respected brand, confusion is unlikely. It's the exception. Not every brand can spend several billion dollars annually on marketing to build and maintain a name. A mistake with something as vital as a company's URL can be fatal. Here's why.
One Company Equals One Address
Your URL is your lifeline to the interactive world. Type almost any well-recognized brand name into a search engine. Ninety-nine percent of results will refer to private individuals, competitors, or articles about the brand. Few, if any, of the results are likely to be the official brand Web site.
Ensuring customers visit your site, and your site alone, is challenging enough. If you promote several Web addresses across several countries, you add to users' confusion. The reality is that your brand should have only one URL, not several.
Now, this shouldn't keep you from investing in online promotions or differentiating individual products. Take Microsoft. Its main site is www.microsoft.com. For Microsoft's Microsoft Office brand, for example, the company would not use www.office.com. Microsoft uses www.microsoft.com/office. This is smart, for obvious reasons. In doing this, it ensures we all remember the Microsoft URL, that Office is a Microsoft product, and even that we are able to guess the addresses of its products and subsites. Its PowerPoint application, part of the Office suite of software, is www.microsoft.com/office/powerpoint. I shouldn't need to ask you what the URL for Microsoft Excel would be. It should be obvious, because Microsoft predictably uses a clear and logical URL structure.
Even if you're the biggest, wealthiest company in the world, consistency is critical. Creating a URL structure that enables customers to guess most of your addresses is key to their ability to stay in touch. This is all the more important in a world where more and more ad campaigns, Web sites, billboards -- you name it -- appear daily. Simplicity is also vital. It's a quality that counts for everything: your campaign, your home page, your message, your brand, and your URL.
Cut down your URLs and stick with one clear structure. It's not only cheaper, it helps your customers remember your brand -- and how to find it online.

Rising prices finally caught up with the Austin-based producer of Spam, Jennie-O and other food.
Hormel Foods Corp., which so far this year had been able to weather rising commodity prices with strong earnings increases, backtracked Friday as it warned that third-quarter and full-year earnings would fall short of targets.
The Austin, Minn.-based meat and food manufacturer blamed rising feed and fuel costs in its Jennie-O Turkey Store division for the shortfall. While corn, which hit record highs of nearly $8 a bushel in late June, has fallen dramatically in recent weeks -- to $5.18 on Friday -- prices are still significantly higher than a year ago.
Hormel stock fell more than 5 percent on the news, closing at $35.64.
Earnings for the quarter are expected to be between 37 and 39 cents per share, Hormel said. Analysts had been expecting 45 cents. A year ago, the company earned 41 cents per share.
While feed and fuel costs have been rising all year, in previous quarters Hormel was able to offset that with price increases and higher sales of products such as Spam.
Lower pork costs also helped shore up profit.
But in a brief statement Friday, the company said price increases in the Jennie-O segment haven't offset higher costs, and that an oversupply of turkey breast meat exacerbated the problem, keeping prices down.
Earnings pressure will continue in the fourth quarter, as the birds that were fed with higher-priced grain make their way through the system, Hormel CEO Jeffrey Ettinger said in the statement.
The company, which still expects earnings to rise for the year, lowered its full-year forecast to between $2.22 and $2.28 per share, down from $2.30 to $2.40.
Executives were unavailable for comment Friday. The company releases full third-quarter results Aug. 21.

Our friends rented a real live photo booth and had it installed in our garage for our leaving party. All without my knowledge.

Well, I'm looking over the photos, and I'm crying now.
antimega, timoni, thegareth, and 10 other people added this photo to their favorites.
Oh I just love this. It makes me a little weepy, too, so I'm not surprised you are.

World shares hover near 20-month highs
LONDON (Reuters) - World shares hovered near 20-month highs on Wednesday, supported by some upbeat corporate earnings, an easing of fears about the U.S. debt ceiling and a better outlook for the global economy.
But with many major equity indexes close to levels not seen since the financial crisis began five years ago while the outlook for global growth remains modest, investors have become cautious about pushing higher until they see how company earnings fare.
"In terms of the market, the crisis is over, but in terms of the real economy, we still have to live through some of the effects," said Nick Kounis, head of macro economic research at
However, he added: "We think enough has been done to sow the seeds of a gradual economic recovery this year which will gain pace next year."
Europe's FTSEurofirst 300 index was little changed near a 22-month high on Wednesday. Germany's DAX, which is close to a high since 2008, was up 0.2 percent, and the UK FTSE 100 index had gained 0.1 percent, having briefly reached a 2013 peak.
The focus in the major share markets was on corporate earnings. Mining giant BHP Billiton (BLT.L) pointed to solid iron ore demand from steelmakers, and consumer goods conglomerate Unilever (ULVR.L) reported strong sales growth.
Though this was offset to some extent by a weak performance by the telecom sector.
Overall, of the 13 percent of companies on the S&P 500 index that have reported results so far, 75 percent have met or beaten forecasts, according to Thomson Reuters StarMine.
In Europe, only 2 percent of all STOXX Europe 600 firms have announced results, but 86 percent of them have met or beaten expectations.
The European debt markets were still basking in the glow of Tuesday's strong 10-year bond sale by Spain, which was swamped with demand from foreign investors, with Portugal expected to return this week for the first time since its 2011 bailout.
German 10-year yields were 1.5 basis points lower, but traders said this had more to do with some investors looking to balance their portfolios as the month end approached following recent gains in peripheral debt.
Prices have risen across the euro zone debt market this month as foreign investors returned, reassured by the European Central Bank's policies to support the region and a strong desire for higher yielding assets.
Sentiment in all markets is expected to improve further if the U.S. House of Representatives votes in favour of a measure to extend the U.S. debt limit for nearly four months later today, ending fears the government could fail to meet its debt obligations.
Meanwhile, the yen pushed higher against the dollar and the euro as monetary easing announced in Japan on Tuesday by the central bank failed to satisfy some investors.
The Bank of Japan doubled its inflation target to 2 percent and adopted an open-ended commitment to buy assets starting in 2014, disappointing some in the market looking for more immediate easing steps.
The dollar fell 0.4 percent to 88.30 yen, while the euro slid 0.8 percent to 117.42 yen. The weakness of the common currency against the yen also dragged it lower against the greenback.
Oil prices were steady as investors awaited inventory data from the United States for clues to demand in the world's largest oil consumer.
Brent crude was 10 cents up at $112.52 a barrel, and U.S. crude for March delivery rose 11 cents to $96.79, off a four-month high of $96.90 hit earlier in the day.
