Jain Temples
Today we returned to Jaisalmer Fort to visit a small complex of Jain Temples. The early rulers of the fort allowed the Jains to build their temples, though they weren't allowed to reside within the fort. Jainism is an ancient religion, an offshoot of Hinduism, but with some significant differences. Jains believe that all creatures, from microbes to …
The Golden Fort
Today we had another leisurely start as we were having lunch at the 'desert camp' before we set off on the road to Jaisalmer. Once we had said our goodbyes we returned to the main road and headed the last 60 kms West to Jaisalmer As we approached the city we could see this hill in the distance surmounted by an enormous sand castle often called the …
The Desert
... of £7 we could have got cheaper ones but without the embroidery. We carried on and just took note of what was on offer and booked ourselves on to an evening camel ride in the desert for the next day. We went back to the fort and took a tour of the palace before it closed. For tea we had momos it was good food but Sarah was a little unsure as it was a little grubby and we were the only customers. We were fine ...

After lunch we decided to revisit the desert to do a wildlife safari, however when we arrived we were told that it is much better to do it at night - not sure why - so we ...

Food down we had some time to walk around before jumping back on our camels, certainly a good idea given the size of lunch!
We were on the edge of the desert proper and so I headed off to explore the sand. I was quickly joined by the others and we had some fun jumping off the small dunes, although as you'll ...

An addendum to the Oakdale City Council agenda to include the city manager's report on business license fees for real estate agents brought a full house to Monday night's council meeting, March 7, predominantly an audience of local Realtors.
The City of Oakdale this week entered into a non-disclosed monetary settlement with a former public works employee to settle a lawsuit alleging racial discrimination, harassment, a hostile work environment, and retaliation. William Moffitt, who worked for the City of Oakdale from 2005 to 2006, claims he was forced to resign from his position as an equipment operator after having to tolerate racial slurs by co-workers and superiors, harassment after receiving a promotion to a higher paid position, and being threatened with a gun by a co-worker in the employee lunchroom. The final straw, according to the lawsuit, was when ...
Local health and wellness educator Maureen Minnehan Jones of Oakdale will be having her new book released the same time she will be doing a presentation at the Alzheimer's International Conference in Toronto, Canada. Her book, "Wisdom To Wellness," is scheduled to be released March 25, the same weekend she will be in Toronto for the conference.
For anyone who's navigated the City of Oakdale's website, they know some of the barriers to obtaining information or a lack of available services such as paying bills online.
A delay in getting a city well operational has cost the City of Oakdale $73,000 in pump shaft repairs due to the manufacturer's claim that the warranty had expired during the three-year time the well sat inactive after the installation of the shaft and the actual time the well was put into service.
A delay in getting a city well operational has cost the City of Oakdale $73,000 in pump shaft repairs due to the installer's claim that the warranty had expired during the 3-year time the well sat inactive between installation of the shaft and the actual time the well was put in service.
The failure of the pump shaft has resulted in finger pointing between city officials, the manufacturer, MagnaDrive of Seattle and the installer, Amerine Systems of Oakdale.
In a proposed cost-saving measure and an attempt to "go green," saving the city the massive amounts of paper per member that is generated for meetings, the five-member Oakdale City Council discussed a proposed switch from printed agendas to the Apple iPad as a substitute for the agenda binders.
Local pooches will have to forego their leash-free romps at the West Basin Dog Park twice a year due to the need for maintenance of the grounds.
An item with potential adverse effects for Oakdale residents, the Tuolumne County Board of Supervisors plans to hold a hearing regarding the recommendation to establish a rock quarry located in southwest Tuolumne County, adjacent to Stanislaus County, off Cooperstown Road.
Oakdale dog owners and their pooches are going to have some down time twice a year, having to wait for their leash-free romps at the West Basin Dog Park due to the need for maintenance of the grounds.
Oakdale and Riverbank motorists are going to have to dig into their pocketbooks a bit deeper for a gallon of gasoline this season as prices are over 50 cents per gallon higher than they were last year at this time. For the first time in three years, the cost of a gallon of gas could reach the intimidating $4 mark, which is certain to modify most drivers' habits after filling up at the pumps.
A little known city provided service is costing the City of Oakdale close to $3000 every time it is performed.
Mark Twain once wrote, "When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years."
Paisley, a 10-month-old golden retriever, lays waiting patiently at the side of her master, area resident Dorothy Langum, who's seated in a local shop enjoying a coffee drink. Paisley isn't fazed as customers go in and out, walking by her designated spot on the floor.
With California in its third drought year, the Oakdale Chamber of Commerce's 42nd Annual Ag Scholarship Luncheon on March 19 brought in known attorney, Valerie Kinkaid, to discuss its chosen topic, "Three Major Threats to Water Rights."
With the recent shoot-down of "Pioneer Perfect," the Oakdale Tourism and Visitor's Bureau decided to finally "embrace" "Cowboy Capital of the World" as it continues its mission to develop and promote tourism for the City of Oakdale.
With the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation planning to release significant water flows down the Stanislaus River during a time of continued drought in the area, the City of Oakdale took a stand and opposed the agency's planned actions, expressing serious concerns with its 2015 Drought Contingency Plan.
The Oakdale City Clerk's office announced on Thursday, March 19 that four citizens applied and are being considered for the open city council seat vacated by Don Petersen last month.
The glass appears to be half full as the Oakdale High School Aca Dec Team now heads to the state championships. As a result of winning the 35th Annual Stanislaus County Academic Decathlon, the team will represent Stanislaus County at the state level. The event will be hosted in Sacramento March 19 through 22.
Wearing a cowboy hat to reinforce his point, Oakdale City Manager Bryan Whitemyer pioneered the Monday, March 16 Oakdale City Council meeting, telling everyone that at no time the city was ever considering changing its 'Cowboy Capital' motto (see related story on this page).
City of Oakdale residents have long felt recognition and pride with the city's motto of "Cowboy Capital of the World" but when the Oakdale Travel and Visitors Bureau introduced a marketing slogan of "Pioneer Perfect," many residents expressed outrage, calling for the city and OTVB not to meddle with something already in place.
With so many quality police shows, dramas, premium channel series, and sports to watch on TV, one of my guilty pleasures of television watching these days is a couple of reality TV shows where I just get to disengage my thinking brain and get to become more of a sarcastic, judging, critical SOB than I already am.
Following an afternoon press release by the City of Oakdale stating it had been "rumored" that the city was considering changing its slogan and had no intentions of doing so, the Oakdale Tourism and Visitors Bureau sent out its own Friday night statement that it would forego the launch of "Pioneer Perfect" and embrace the city's original motto "Cowboy Capital of the World."

As Oakdale city leaders proposed annexing a portion of Crane Crossing and expanding its sphere of influence, some property owners spoke out causing the Oakdale City Council to delay the item until more information could be heard.
The driver involved in a late summer fiery Knights Ferry crash that claimed the life of a Modesto man was arrested on Friday, March 6 and now faces murder charges for causing the collision.

An Oakdale man was arrested by Tuolumne County Sheriff's detectives at his Hampton Court residence on Feb. 2 for several sex crimes, according to a March 2 press release issued from the Tuolumne County Sheriff's Department.

"I love our Save the Date cards! The Wedding Paper Divas staff sent me an email to clarify before production. The cards were shipped very quickly and the picture quality is outstanding! I even received a personalized thank you card from the person who designed the order! I will be using the Wedding Paper Divas for all of my stationary needs! Thank you!"
"Absolutely loved every product. These came out so beautiful, way beyond what we expected. The quality of the pictures were awesome and the thick paper definitely made them that much better"
"I got these for my upcoming wedding and I absolutely love them! The design was perfect for my vintage/garden theme. The paper quality was great. My only complaint was on one of the smaller photos.. It didn't seem to have the best resolution but it's still fine. Wedding Paper Divas was great to work with. I would recommend these!"
"I had been looking for Save the Dates on several websites when I finally came across Wedding Paper Divas after seeing information about them I got an email via one of the bridal sites I am a part of. I am so glad I did. I wanted to have Postcard style Save the Dates and Wedding Paper Divas is one of the few websites that I found to have them! This design with the Looped Monogram is perfect! I love having the calender with the wedding date circled, another thing I was looking for, and I love seeing our initials stand out as well. Having the three picture design was nice as well as there were a few pictures from our engagement session that I wanted to use and I was able to. Once I placed an order, I received the proof in a couple of business days and approved it right away. I wasn't expecting the cards until the week of March 1 to March 7 but I received them yesterday! Such great quick service and I will definitely order from Wedding Paper Divas in the future."
"The quality of my save-the-dates exceeded my expectations! The professional pictures we had worked perfect in this card. I was so happy with the service, too! During the proofing process, it states that changes may take 1-2 business days. Sarah had made the changes I requested in less an hour! I highly recommend this product. THANK YOU!"

Washing machine review
By windharp
from Undisclosed
Comments about Electrolux 4.2 Cu. Ft. Front Load Washer - Island White:
We do several loads a week and the items can be very heavy since we have a pool. Pool towels have been trouble to wash with other washers, but this one handles large tow loads quickly.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By jaime
I'm a single mom of two little girls that love to get just as dirty as boys. We sometimes go through several outfits per day. I'm just so busy I don't have time to sort laundry. I wash it all together and this machine works perfect. I can wash big or small loads without issue. I even have my 2 and 4 year olds helping me. They love to push the buttons and move the loads. Never would have been possible without this machine.
wrinkled clothes
By mac
My only complaint with the washer is that it leaves my clothes terribly wrinkled even after drying.
Great washing machine
By George
Our old machine broke down and we felt it would be better to replace it versus paying a lot of money fixing the old one and hoping it wouldn't break down again. We called around to several dealers and asked them which brand they felt was the most dependable and people liked the best and Electrolux was mentioned more than anyone else. The washer has great features and easy to understand controls.
man of the washer machine

the electrolux 4.2 cu.ft.front load washer with iQ touch model eiflw50liw is by far the best washer machine I have ever bought and used what else can i say but its orrrsome!
By JYoung
We love this machine! There are many, easy to understand options. Quiet and efficient, the clothes are clean and not shredded, like our old machine.
Washer Review
By BillG
This fast spin cycle dries out the clothes enough to shorten the drying time compare to prior machine that was 9 years old when it failed
Wonderifly Clean
By Bob Greene
My wife Devon and I truly love our new washer and dryer from Electrolux! We had our old top load washer for over 15 years, but since moving to a newly built home, we decided to upgrade to a new washer and picked the Electrolux EIFLW50LIW for the excellent offered features and very competitive pricing. Wow! What a surprise! At first, I thought there was something wrong with the machine because so little water was used in the washing process compared to what I was used to. I called the Electrolux customer service line and spoke with a very nice young woman who assured me that there was nothing wrong with the unit, but that it was designed that way as just part of the overall energy and water savings that the product provided. Living in the Central Valley of California where we have had drought conditions for the last 4 years, I found these features all the more appealing, and the clothes are clean above expectations.
I love my washer!
By Christal
I love my washer because it gets the clothes very clean and very drie. I do not have to put the clean clothes in the dryer for a long time. The washer saves the cost on water usage. I love all of the features that comes . I also have an Electrolux Gas Dryer which is great because it saves the cost on our gas bill. I recommend that you purchase an Electrolux Washer and Dryer. You will be very happy with Electrolux.
It's a Good Machine
By AHA
So far we are finding this machine to be a good purchase. It cleans the clothes well, uses much less water than our prior top load and has many custom settings. We like the stainless drum vs. a porcelain or plastic drum. The overall appearance is nice and we purchased the drawer to go under it, which is a great place to store all kinds of household cleaning products (keeping them out of sight but in a convenient location in our laundry room). The washer has two things which could be improved. The detergent dispenser drawer always has water remaining in it. This is a nuisance because we don't have a sink in our laundry room. Instead of emptying it we just put the detergent in there, but that makes the detergent go above the "max" line. So far we haven't seen a problem from that but it should be corrected. Second - we have to leave the door open to dry out the seal and interior so it doesn't get a smell - something which has to be done with most front loads. But since this is "normal operating procedure" for this style of washer there should be a clip which holds the door open but doesn't require it to be open all the way. Putting these small things aside, this is a well functioning washer with very nice features. it's quiet when it's washing and it cleans well.

In Crimea, some are asking whether to go or stay
With Crimea now annexed by Russia, members of the region's minority populations are mostly staying put — at least so far.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Vait Sitdzhemiliev brought his wife and three daughters to Crimea to honour a deathbed wish from his father six years ago. Now, waking Wednesday in a land officially annexed by Russia, the Crimean Tatar is worried about what is to come.
He fears for the eight tidy guestrooms he has built for sun-seeking vacationers. He worries about how Russian neighbours will behave now that they're in Moscow's embrace. Most of all, he frets over what lies ahead for his daughters, three hard-working students in their 20s.
"We Crimean Tatars have never gotten anything good from the Kremlin," said Sitdzhemiliev, a 49-year-old entrepreneur.
Nonetheless, he has decided to stay. Crimea is his ancestral homeland: his parents were among the tens of thousands of Crimean Tatars deported en masse by Soviet dictator Josef Stalin, and he brought his family here from Uzbekistan six years ago on his dying father's request.
Sitdzhemiliev's choice mirrors that of the majority of members of minority populations in ethnic Russian-dominated Crimea — at least so far.
Ukrainian Orthodox Archbishop Kliment of Simferopol and Crimea says there has been no exodus by those fearful of Moscow's takeover. But the future fills the archbishop with dread: "The worst is that when people ask me to," he said, "I can't guarantee their safety."
His network of clergy has reported the departure of about 200 people in recent weeks, mostly from the farming country of northeastern Crimea. About 40 per cent of Crimea's population of 2 million is not Russian — mostly ethnic Ukrainians, Tatars and Belarusians.
If Crimeans ask him what to do, Kliment, 44, advises the young to leave and the old to stay until somebody can return for them. He's afraid that ethnic Ukrainians may become a "human shield" exploited by the Kremlin and their allies to stymie any attempt by Ukraine to retake control.
Whatever the future brings, the archbishop said, "I'll be here to the last."

I have been working at American Red Cross
Gives you hands on experience in any field you want to go into. Also constantly has positions opening or classes and training to take to further your career. Management is easy to talk to and constantly open to new ideas. Also reviews are given in a fair manner.
Some people are standoffish outside of your department. Other problem is you are working for a non-profit agency, so the pay isn't the greatest when first starting, but those that have been promoted higher up, get paid fairly well. In certain departments you have to work around everyone's schedule if you want a day off.
Allow more time off and more competitive pay.

The new album Take a Look in the Mirror, easily Korn's most aggressive effort, stands in stark contrast to its predecessor, the dense, expansive (and New York Times-approved) Untouchables. "I'm feeling mean today," Davis snarls at the outset of the new disc, setting the tone for an album on which he screams himself hoarse over stripped-down production. Fieldy's rumbling bass is loud enough to set off car alarms. There's a nod to Korn's rap-rock roots on "Play Me," featuring barbed rhymes by Nas, and Davis returns to the bagpipes on "Let's Do This Now." Throughout Mirror, Korn flaunts the album's lack of accessibility. "Ya'll want a single?" Davis bellows at one point. "Fuck you!"
"I really don't care what they have to say," drummer David Silveria says of critics. "If they like us, fine; if they don't, fine. We've never been looking for credit from critics or awards -- just the support of our fans is proof. It's the most rewarding award, so to speak, that we could get."

Bar Piti: Local Favorite for Italian
The atmosphere, staff and especially the food make this Soho spot very popular all year, especially in the spring, summer and fall when you can sit or by the huge open windows. Everything is fresh, fast, authentic and amazing. The tables are close together and the place hums with conversation - chances are you will become friends with the folks at your neighboring tables. It's a must for us every time we visit NYC. Bring cash - no checks or credit cards.
Favorite Dish: Pasta Pomodoro or any one of the many daily specials
- Romantic Travel and Honeymoons
Bar Pitti: Alfresco Italian in Greenwich Village
With tables spilling onto the 6th Avenue sidewalk next to the passing parade of New Yorkers and visitors, Bar Pitti is a long-standing New York favorite. There are some inside tables as well, but these are often half empty while many wait for an outside table. No reservations, no liquor license - only a limited beer and wine menu with only 2 wine choices by the glass, and NO CREDIT CARDS. After wandering around the Village, this is an excellent choice for lunch or dinner but the waiting line grows longer and longer as the day passes and the restaurant is open till as late as 2 AM. A fixed menu includes antipasti, salads, pastas, and panninis as well as a few entrees. Specials are listed on a blackboard brought to the table by the server. Our selection of pastas and appetizers was very good and quite reasonably priced with salads and antipasto less than $10 and most pastas less than $14. Bottled beers are $5 and wine by the glass $7. The entrees are more expensive of course and not what one eats here for. Service was what one would expect with outdoor tables but did not detract from an enjoyable outing. Do note - wines by the bottle are quite expensive and bottled water is an absolute ripoff at $7. If the line is really long, do not make the mistake of going next door to da Silvano which looks the same but is an upscale expensive and (according to a couple we know who ate there) not particularly good restaurant. There are many more Italian eateries in the village that are a better value.
Favorite Dish: Pappardelle in a light pink cream sauce with smoked bacon turned out to be far better than it sounded. Rigatoni with sausage was terrific. For dessert, walk up Bleecker Street toward 7th Avenue to the tiny Bruno Pasticceria, a tiny bakery where a renowned baker makes superb delicacies, offers excellent gelato and sorbetti, and serves surprisingly good coffee at extremely reasonable prices.

We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
You're doing it wrong, use something like https://www.usenix.org.uk/cont...
I think what you're referring to is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., time being proportional to the number of heads on a project.
I'm still using boot floppies, but they're virtual and mounted via an HP ILO... Not touched an actual floppy since, no, I can't remember when. They were great until you got pocket fluff/grit behind the gate and transferred it unto the drive. SD cards are a suitable replacement, though easily lost and are perhaps on par bad block wise.
One thing we should commend though, well done on keeping your files small enough to fit on floppies. That's pretty much impossible after a few revisions of a Word document after it collects all that system information.
So, what if you wanted to filter out all the W's - can your machine do that? What about skittles, did you want to limit yourself to one type of sweet?
There's freedom of speech, but then there's speech that's so offensive that no eyes should read it. It's misused. Totally. Some audio cds have to carry a notice to warn parents/buyers that the contents is unsuitable for children. Welcome to 2014, the internet is a scary place, watch your children whilst they use it - don't arrest every user who posts something they may regret later as there was a humour failure.
People on the streets couldn't defend themselves as they were hit like #pinballs.
It was a prediction of the future, so don't be shocked that this one is close to the truth. Just don't be surprised that room 101 is full of web logs of all the bad things you said on the internet.
Or could it be that the customer can't produce a false claim of unreasonable force after the incident?

On 16 July 2012 Marissa Mayer was appointed President and CEO of Yahoo.
Flickr was in decline before her take over. The issue with flickr was that their team was forced to integerate into the Yahoo! system rather than remain an isolated satellite of Yahoo! See the write up http://gizmodo.com/5910223/how....
According to Alexa, the site is ranked 118th, http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/... so there's still life left in it yet.
Some are though, such as the comment by "Anonymous Coward" that you followed up on. Wouldn't it be nice if Justice Bot could go to the posters location and dispense justice upon him autonomously? Rule 237, humans not bad would not apply in this situation. The problem would be when the AI considers all humans to do bad and in need of punishment.
Mozilla are throttling the chat feature.
To enable, go to about:config, and set loop.throttled to false. Otherwise there is a one in ten chance of having the feature. Currently I think the servers are struggling. It's a new feature and as such needs to bed in whilst capacity is judged.
Indeed, everything is fine in moderation. Though, you know, there are far worse things he could be doing, at least this guy isn't in a bar chatting some other woman up. She should be pleased that he's home at least.
On the other hand, perhaps she has identified that he's not making the most out of life, perhaps he should take up some other hobby for a bit that they can do together, or just sit in the living room and read a parenting book or talk about how her day was.
Personally, I've never had any long runs of gaming, they get boring, but I still find computing itself to be quite absorbing and perhaps the mrs doesn't like this. So, from own experience don't spend more money on gaming hardware.
Your wife just wants to make the house more kiddie friendly. Get a laptop.

Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Giants Revisited (PFRPG)
Paizo Publishing, LLC(based on 2 ratings)
Show Description For:
Add Print Edition: $19.99
Add PDF: $13.99
Non-Mint: Unavailable
No creatures demonstrate smaller races' relative insignificance better than the eerie and awe-inspiring giants, whose humanoid visages and cyclopean strengths exude an aura of both familiarity and terror. Standing in the long shadows of these colossi, smaller races can witness a form of primordial power that shakes the earth, churns the skies, and roils the waves.
Giants Revisited explores the traits and habitats of the biggest and meanest humanoids ever to tread the earth, towering beings whose motives and behaviors are as varied as their origins and amazing abilities. Each giant race's entry examines the creature's ecology and habitat, its interactions with other giants and races, advice on how to implement the behemoth in your game, unique stat blocks, and more.
Giants Revisited is intended for use with the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game and Pathfinder campaign setting, but can easily be used in any fantasy game setting.

Four highly experienced back country snowmobilers were riding near Huntington Reservoir. They were trained in avalanche rescue and had beacons, probes, shovels, and Spot GPS. When the avalanche happened, the others in the party reached the area and located their friend who was buried about 6 to 8 feet under the surface and began CPR. They also sent a message with the Spot which sends GPS coordinates with a request for help. Rescuers from State Parks, Emery and Sanpete County and Fairview Ambulance responded. Unfortunately Clint Conover from Ferron Utah did not survive. He leaves behind a wife and five children.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
29 Sep 2013 00:27 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Iran, Israel, United States
Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu has left for New York in an attempt to challenge perceptions that Iran under its new president poses less of a nuclear threat.
"I intend to tell the truth in the face of the sweet talk and charm offensive of Iran," Netanyahu told Israeli public radio as saying as he boarded the plane at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion airport early on Sunday.
"Telling the truth at this time is essential for world peace and security and, of course, for Israel's security."
He has described the conciliatory speech by Hassan Rouhani, Iran's president, to the UN General Assembly as "cynical" and "full of hypocrisy".
Netanyahu is due to meet US President Barack Obama at the White House on Monday and return to New York to address the UN General Assembly on Tuesday.
Netanyahu has long put what Israel and the West say is a covert Iranian programme to develop a nuclear weapon at the forefront of his security concerns.
Nuclear programme 'important'
Iran denies the charge and in his UN address Rouhani said nuclear weapons had no place in Iran's security and defence doctrine.
The moderate, tasked with easing concerns over Iran's nuclear program, made history on Friday by speaking by phone to US President Barack Obama, in the first contact between the countries' leaders since the 1979 Islamic revolution.
Israeli media said that Netanyahu had instructed his ministers and senior officials not to comment on the call.
Hundreds of Iranians cheered Rouhani on his return from New York on Saturday after his historic phone call with Obama, but about 100 hardliners shouted "Death to America" and threw eggs and shoes at his official car leaving the airport, Iranian media reported.
Rouhani said after returning home that he told Obama that Iran's nuclear programme was a right of the Iranian nation and a matter of development.
"But also, and more importantly, it is a matter of national pride for the Iranian people," he said.

Every year, billions of pieces of junk mail are sent to consumers by financial companies. In addition to contributing to the destruction of this cute little koala bear's home, there's another significant cost: the sale of your financial data without your approval, including your credit history, income, assets, net worth, and address.
Credit reporting bureaus sell consumer credit report data to financial and marketing companies, who in turn, use the data to determine whom should receive their mailers. After talking with our friends, they all kept saying how much they'd love to stop this pile of waste.
Your data belongs to you, and you should be able to decide who has access to it. Wisely has built a service that allows people to opt out of credit card junk mail for the reasons below.
Today, credit reporting bureaus collectively own a company called Opt Out LLC, which is responsible for maintaining a website that consumers can use to opt out of credit card offers. Unfortunately, the site is vastly inferior relative to other web applications that consumers interact with on a daily basis. There are three primary issues with the website:
Opt Out has no presence on Facebook, Twitter, or other social networks. At Wisely, we would expect a service as valuable as Opt Out to be easily accessible via search and social networks. Plus, OptOutPrescreen uses a robots.txt tag, which prevents Google from indexing the content on its site, resulting in abnormally low search rankings. Fortunately, OptOutPrescreen still ranks highly in Google because it has hundreds of sites linking to it.
In the years since Opt Out created its site, websites have become much more user friendly. Today, a website's design greatly influences consumer trust – people trust things that look legitimate. Opt Out's design resembles a phishing scam more than it does a legit website. On a personal note, Opt Out's design even deterred members of Wisely's team from using the site until we researched it further.
Once you've opted out online, Opt Out automatically puts you back into the marketing pool after five years. Perhaps there are valid reasons for requiring that, but the site doesn't make it easy to remember when you need to opt out. There are no email reminders or push notifications, both of which have become common practice in today's world.
Regardless of the reason why Opt Out is inferior, Wisely has built a service that solves all of these issues.
Wisely's Opt Out Service allows consumers to easily and securely opt out of credit card offers. Wisely's site can be easily found on search engines, and people can share the site with their friends via Facebook, Twitter, and Google Plus. When it's time to renew your opt out in five years, Wisely will send you an email to remind you. Lastly, Wisely only asks for data that's required to submit the Opt Out form; said differently, you don't need to give up your SSN in order to opt out. To be fair, Opt Out Prescreen says that providing your SSN will help them find successfully opt out out vs. relying on Name or Address (which could have data issues e.g., St vs Street).
"Why did Wisely go through the effort to do all of this?", you might ask.
Simple: We want to establish Wisely as a trusted consumer brand. We offer other products, such as our iPhone app, and building consumer trust is job one for us.
In closing, consumers can trust Wisely to have their financial best interests in mind. We hope that you'll share Wisely's Opt Out service with your friends and family, so they can protect their own data and save a rainforest .
Thank you,
Team Wisely

Fred's Take
I'm an avid fan of cyberpunk as am I an avid fan of the only series I've ever played by Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear (both Solid and the MSX titles), so you would think naturally I would love this game. Granted, being an adventure game that is slower in pace was somewhat of a setback for a player like me that doesn't care for the genre, but the "annoying" light gun sequences helped sweeten the deal. I will confess to having my light gun not hold up to the shooting sequences and since playing through this title I'm fairly certain my Justifier light gun no longer works, but I can safely proclaim that it wasn't Snatcher that broke it. Anyway, put it altogether in a Blade Runner type game and I'm sold from start to finish, even if the pacing of this title is its biggest weakness.
You play as Gillian Seed who is starting his first day at Junker Headquarters, which is an acronym for the policing body that searches for Snatchers, the bioroids (cyborgs) that kill and replace a human body as they attempt to blend into society. Seed has amnesia and has been trying to cope with this discovery and the fact that his estranged wife, Jamie, and he are at ends because they can't be forced into love they don't feel. Gillian, for the record, is much more interested in seeing it work than his wife but his character also seems to hit on anything with two eyes and a set of…legs. Your story mostly involves the solving a simple crime that gives way to uncovering a large hive of Snatchers in the Neo Kobe. The game is separated into three acts, of which the first and second are of equal long lengths and the final act is a short and sweet action wrap-up followed by a decade of cutscenes a la Metal Gear Solid 4. I am appreciative that the list of notable characters is left to single digits (eight specifically) with a sprinkling of recurring side characters, so there's little chance you'll get characters confused or not know who is being discussed in major plot points.
For the most part this is a story-based game where you traverse many levels of dialogue options in order to progress the story and uncover large portions of the mystery. You can't really die save for the handful of action sequences, and even then the game just returns you directly to that sequence unless you give up and take the game over. From that perspective I can see where this is more of a visual novel than an adventure game – although that's really splitting hairs – but it's reassuring that if you make a stupid statement, screw up a line of questioning, or just plain continuously hit on someone's teenage daughter that it doesn't affect your progress in the game. I am particularly fond of the anime style, of which this game borrows heavily, and I like the way the story unfolds along with the very Japanese touches present in the game from bright colored hair to the "accidental" catching someone in the shower scene. If you're a big fan of Kojima, you will also notice a bunch of staples from his other works including your robotic partner, a Metal Gear Mk. II, and although it doesn't do anything (as we've continued to debate while playing this title) the presence of the Konami code in the Junker HQ computer system. At the end of the 6-8 hour campaign you will get an interesting and fun science fiction story that marks a much simpler plot than most of Kojima's Metal Gear work.
That said it's far from a perfect game and the lack of action can actually make this title difficult to play for extended periods of time. You can watch our entire longplay video and clearly see long stretches where I'm doing nothing more than selecting every option in the book and not really caring what response I get because it's not plot important. This doesn't take away from the game's appeal but it does make for a more broken out experience as I found it better to play in short bursts due to a lack of action. It should also be noted that if the plot isn't interesting to you this game has nothing really to offer because the random shooting sequences leave much to be desired from a gameplay perspective and aside from the 20-30 minutes you will spend beating all of them the rest of the game's campaign is plot and more plot. It's a niche title and you should know that going in – adventure fans will scoff at the lack of puzzle solving and horrendous action sequences whereas traditional gamers will scoff at the lack of much gaming activity and the slow pacing. Then again, this was a Sega CD release and if you compare it with the brunt of games of that era it stands out as one of the few complete and quality experiences that platform has to offer, but few are trying to find a Sega CD and a handful of games to make it worthwhile.
Perhaps this review is a little disjointed as is my true feelings on the game club we did. I can understand that because for the first time in a long time I feel like I really didn't do much and thus can't really speak to the experience of playing it outside the fact that it seems to merge reading a book, watching a movie, and playing a game albeit in uneven ratios. I liked the game a lot, I get why it's popular, and I plan to replay it again sometime. Much like cyberpunk it's a bit clunky, the technology is based on good intentions but not quite there, and it can be a somewhat cold experience, but I hadn't really played anything like it before and I'm pretty sure I won't be again either.
Final Score: 4 out of 5 (review policy)
Jam's Take
Snatcher is a game with an incredible cult following. Widely considered as one of Hideo Kojima's lost gaming gems, which however few gamers have even played on the Mega CD (Sega CD in the US). Now as I pull on my cyberpunk t-shirt, lets see if it's as shiny on the inside as it is on the out.
Blade Runner, I mean Snatcher, is set in a cyberpunk city called Neo Kobe and if your a fan of this genre then it may just bring a smile to your face when the games opening credits dedicates it to "all the cyberpunk fans out there." Now I'm just going to come out out and say it: your enjoyment of Snatcher will be dependent on how much you like the story. If you love films like Blade Runner or Terminator it's likely you'll enjoy this; or you may just complain about how much the game kind of rips off these famous franchises. Snatcher puts you in the shoes of Gillian, a guy with a long trenchcoat recovering from amnesia (seriously in Japanese stroylines this condition is more of an epidemic than the common cold). You've joined an organisation called J.U.N.K.E.R who basically hunt down Terminators to save John Conner, sorry I mean Snatchers, who are robots posing as identity thieving humans. For an organisation that is supposed to be defending the city from such a deadly threat it was surprising to see how small the team was. Expect to meet many colourful characters throughout the gameplay experience. Also expect to hear their entire back story, probably far more than is needed, but this is pretty typical for a Kojima title.
Voice acting, smooth jazz in a cyberpunk age, and graphics are the key focus. So the voice acting was not the highlight of the this title unless you like your Saturday morning cartoons. It was probably much better in the original Japanese but the English dubbing was rather void of emotion and came across as wooden. It did lead me to wonder if they'd been taken over by Snatchers themselves. The music in the game is a bit different mainly a lot of smooth jazz which under the setting of the story is a bit strange but like Arnie and the 80's it seems to just work. Finally the graphics, they're your standard colourful animie style which look excellent on the Sega CD and do wonders to make a dystopian Los Angeles come to life.
If your coming into Snatcher looking for a deep and methodical gameplay experience then your probably going to be deeply disappointed. When you play Snatcher you will only be interacting with the game in one of two ways: either you'll be scrolling through various options to desperately advance the story or you will very occasionally be shooting robots using either a controller or a compatible light gun (which would make chasing those Replicants far easier). Since I was playing this game on an emulator I had to use the keyboard which proved rather challenging especially during the action-packed finale. Speaking of which, the general plot of the title was pretty good until I reached the finale, during which time I mainly watched as new characters were suddenly introduced complete with their own back story and I began to forget why my character was even there. Almost like I was watching some kind of Spanish soap, but then I realised my girlfriend had just changed the channel – although finding out who killed Julio was far more entertaining than the end of this game.
Overall, I did enjoy my time with Robocop, I mean Snatcher. It was interesting to see where the origins of Metal Gear Solid's over the top long cutscenes originated from as well as the typical Kojima twist in the story. Just like the Metal Gear Solid series in general this is very much a take it or leave it experience. If you're looking for a heavy story based experience with a tiny amount of actual gameplay, then you will certainly enjoy Robocop vs Terminator. Though I personally had mixed feelings on where the plot ultimately ended in the game, I couldn't help but be sucked into the cyperpunk setting. It was a fun ride while it lasted but not an experience I will probably be rushing back into again. This really feels like a game you will only ever play once.
Final Score: 3 out of 5
Retro Game Night: Fire'n Ice and Skyblazer
This week the "$130 episode" features the NES sequel to Solomon's Key Fire'n Ice and the recently featured Retronauts favorite Skyblazer for the SNES.
Podcast: Finding An Analog
When video games started invading toy store shelves the industry was stunned by a product that not only buried traditional products but dominated at generating revenue. Secretly they all wanted a piece of the pie and the hope was that the dominant video medium, VHS, could be the gateway. Enter the failed consoles of the Action Max, ViewMaster Interactive Vision, and canceled Hasbro Control-Vision (codenamed NEMO). Oddly enough these consoles did have roots with some very top people in both toys and gaming in addition to creating the building blocks of the Full Motion Video (FMV) game.

Video: Michigan: Report from Hell Longplay Part 4 & Finale
And here's the wrap up of easily one of the most expensive PS2 games I've ever owned. At 4.5 hours with the bonus material, probably not the strongest campaign out, but Michigan is an experimental "out of the box" title that probably will never be repeated again. Either way, here's the end of the journey:

Michigan: Report from Hell Longplay Part 2
Retro Game Challenge: Daze Before Christmas
Merry Christmas fellow readers. Today we are looking at one of the only true Christmas themed games, which is also one of the most rare 16-bit titles released. Originally developed by then newcomer Funcom, Daze Before Christmas took a whopping year to develop (most games took 4-6 months back then) and was really just a conversion of the developer's other game We're Back: A Dinosaur Tale. It eventually wrapped up and publisher Sunsoft decided to release it exclusively to Australia (a PAL region) in 1994, which is why the title is expensive and hard to find. Near the end of the summer of release (most games came out in the summer to prepare for word-of-mouth advertising in the holiday season) an SNES port released in Europe, but only in Germany, which again explains its rarity on that platform. Sunsoft USA had begun work on a US version for both consoles but it was canceled as Sunsoft USA was nearing its closing in late 1994.
It's really too bad because aside from being super easy, the game is a solid Christmas themed platformer with Santa as the playable character, bright colorful graphics, and a synth Christmas soundtrack. While a legitimate copy will cost you on the upwards of $100+ today (not to mention the mods needed to a Genesis/SNES to actually fit the cart in your console), reproduction carts like the one I got are much more affordable around $30-$40 online. For a game that can be completed by almost any seasoned gamer in about an hour and a very narrow theme that may seem like a hefty price tag, but I've seen people pay more than that for a copy of fellow holiday game Christmas Nights so supply does justify the purchase. Either way, Merry Christmas and enjoy Daze Before Christmas. Friendly warning: I get too close to the mic for portions of the playthrough so I apologize for the jet engine breathing.
Retro Game Night: RE Gun Survivor 2 and Michigan
For this week's video and Retro Game Night we are playing requested titles Biohazard (Resident Evil) Gun Survivor 2 (Japanese Version) and Michigan: Report from Hell (European English Version). Both titles only released in Japan and Europe so here they are in all your viewing glory. Due to language and violence both of the games and the commentary, viewer discretion is advised. Michigan is continued via additional longplay videos starting with Part 2 here.
Retro Game Night: Fatal Labyrinth and Call of Cthulhu Dark Descent
In what is easily the two hardest game titles to spell, we are going dark for this week's Retro Game Night.
First up is user @NeoJakeMcC requesting one of the first ever rogue-likes from the Genesis/Mega Drive: Fatal Labyrinth.
Next up is the relatively rare hybrid between survival horror, first-person shooter, and adventure: Call of Cthulhu Dark Descent.
Retro Game Night: Patriotic Edition
This week we post a little early and celebrate America's Independence Day with patriotic video games:
First up is actually a Japanese game, Parodius Da! but it has quite the patriotic boss so it's here because I love this game and found a connection:
Next up is a rare unlicensed NES game by Color Dreams entitled Operation Secret Storm:
Third on the list is a digital pinball game from the PS1 era, because why not right? Here's Patriotic Pinball (please excuse my technical difficulties):
And last but not least we close the show with a game so American, so amazing, so awesome it was only released on one console (Xbox) and in one region (Japan). Yeah, you read that right. Since I have no way of getting my hands on it and don't have a Japanese Xbox to play it on, here's a great flashback of 1UP's Broken Pixels show bragging about From Software's 3rd person uber-American title Metal Wolf Chaos:
Hope you enjoyed those and have a safe and happy 4th of July!

Hi Ginger!
I'm pretty sure that the Howard Cahill #39902691 you are maintaining is the son of Thomas Jefferson and wife Nellie Catherine Gaines. TJ is in turn the son of Thomas B Cahill and wife Margaret Thomasson. TB is Peregrine's son. Howard had two more children - but don't know their status at this time - so we'll share off site. You do great work!
