NCIS star Pauley Perrette teams with Justice League alum George Newbern in animated Blu-rayTM Combo Pack & DVD version of Joe Kelly's heralded "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice and the American Way?"
The Man of Steel comes face-to-face with powerful villains, daunting rivals and a society more interested in retribution than justice when a new, less-ethical breed of super hero arrives in Metropolis in Superman vs. The Elite, the next entry in the popular, ongoing series of DC Universe Animated Original Movies. Produced by Warner Premiere, DC Entertainment and Warner Bros. Animation, the all-new, PG-13 rated film arrives June 12, 2012 from Warner Home Video as a Blu-rayTM Combo Pack ($24.98 SRP) and DVD ($19.98 SRP), On Demand and for Download. Both the Blu-rayTM Combo Pack and DVD will include an UltraVioletTM Digital Copy.
Award-winning comics writer Joe Kelly has crafted a taut, thrilling screenplay, adapted from the original 2001 DC Comics release, "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice and the American Way?," by Kelly and Doug Mahnke with Lee Bermejo. The single-issue comic, Action Comics #775, was lauded by Wizard Magazine as the "Greatest Superman Story of All Time," and ranked the epic tale at No. 21 on its list of the "Top 100 Comics of the last 30 years."
In the film, Superman's effectiveness as a super hero comes into question when a new group of super powerful crusaders, known as "The Elite," appear on the scene. As super heroes, the Elite know no bounds, and are more than willing to kill, even on a massive scale, to stop villainy -- putting them on a collision course with the ever-ethical and decidedly non-lethal Man of Steel.
George Newbern (Father of the Bride) reprises his Justice League animated role as Superman, and primetime television star Pauley Perrette (NCIS) provides the voice of Lois Lane. Versatile voice actor Robin Atkin Downes (Babylon 5, Justice League: Doom) steps in as Manchester Black, leader of The Elite. David Kaufman (Justice League: Doom) also reprises his Justice League TV series role as Jimmy Olsen.
The film is directed by Michael Chang (Batman: The Brave and the Bold). Sam Register (Young Justice, Teen Titans, Ben 10) and Bruce Timm (Batman: Year One) are the executive producers. Alan Burnett is producer.
"Superman vs. The Elite adds to the rich legacy of the DC Universe Animated Original Movies series, spotlighting an important chapter in the annals of Man of Steel stories," said Mary Ellen Thomas, Warner Home Video Vice President, Family & Animation and Partner Brands Marketing. "Bringing back George Newbern gives the film a nice touch of nostalgia for fans of the Justice League animated series, and Pauley Perrette gives Lois Lane altogether new dimensions with her performance."
Superman vs. The Elite Blu-rayTM Combo Pack has 3 hours of exciting content, including:
* Superman vs. The Elite UltraViolet Digital Copy is a limited time offer. Restrictions and limitations apply. Go to ultraviolet.flixster.com/info for details.

California trip is one more step in Acey's recovery
In early October, when Madysen Acey stood on the beach looking out at the Pacific Ocean, what lay behind her was an inspiring story of tragedy, strength, perseverance and ultimately, hope.
Madysen was a happy, outgoing 10 year old when her life changed on April 25, 2010. She was climbing on a piece of farm equipment at a friend's house when she lost her balance and reached out for something to break her fall. She grabbed a low lying power line that sent electricity surging through her body. The accident left burns on her hands, arms and hip and sent her to Lebonheur Children's Hospital for emergency surgery.

Sprinkler repair and automation - ballpark costs?
We live in Southern California and have a small backyard and small front yard with in-ground sprinklers. Most to all of the heads need to be replaced, and some of the lines may as well. We'd like to have those repaired and also have our sprinkler system automated. Right now, there is one valve that has to be manually turned in the front yard for the front sprinklers and a set of three valves in the back yard for the back sprinklers.
Wondering just ballpark what kinds of costs we may be looking at?
I'm in N.CA so pricing may be similar. I just had a sprinkler system installed, which would be more than your repair because they had to dig all the trenches.
The system has 4 automatic valves, and the price included a very nice (and easy to use) controller. They just put the outside-rated controller on the side of my house and plugged it into the outdoor plug. I had to replace the plug cover with a weatherproof cover box, so add $15. :)
The 4 valves were 2 for the 800 sq ft lawn -- rotor sprinklers -- and 2 for soaker hose irrigation. Oh, and they ran a spigot to way the heck in the back -- about 60' from the valves/shut off.
I had quotes for this project ranging from $500 to $2500 (!). Two people came in at $900 and one I really liked -- friendly and a good attitude. The total was $960 (because I added in the spigot).
To macfairman:
You did it right. You eliminated the $500 guys, who were coming in under the contractor radar.
You got a good deal. Keep in mind it cost $250 a day to just bring a trencher onto your property. And then to throw in the labor-- you'd be above $500. The owners, who does his business with the same wholesalers gets good discounts, some as good as 40% of list, but he probably still spent $200 on material. So he didn't have much left in his pocket--less than $200. I suspect you must live way north in Redding or Chico to get the job done at that price. Don't think an installer would last long in L.A. or S.F. at those rates.
Just out of curiosity-- did he give you a design, including information such as Gal/min and PSI on your system?

Buffalo Bore Ammunition 357 Sig 125 Grain Barnes TAC-XP Hollow Point Low Flash Lead-Free Box of 20
You must be 21 years or older to order ammunition. Ammo must ship UPS ground. Due to Department of Transportation regulations, we cannot accept returns on ammo. Please check local laws before ordering.
Product Information
Owner of Buffalo Bore Tim Sundles on Buffalo Bore Heavy 357 Sig Low Flash Ammunition:
Because you requested it, Buffalo Bore is now producing two full power 357 Sig. loads. These loads are full power 357 Sig. Not the watered down stuff that other factories are already producing. Why is it that a new cartridge gets developed with touted ballistics in the media, only to have the ammo manufacturers "water" it down after a few years on the market? (The same thing happened with the original 10MM) The 357 Sig. was designed to blast a 125gr. bullet at 1,425 FPS out of a four inch carry gun barrel. (Not a much longer test barrel) So, that is what both our loadings do.
We use flash suppressed powder so that you wont be blinded by your own gun fire should you be required to drop the hammer in low light. Since over 90% of shootings in America happen in low light, flash suppressed ammunition is a huge tactical advantage.
Item 25A utilizes the 125gr. Jacketed Hollow Point bullet. It is designed to open radically and penetrate roughly 12 to 14 inches in tissue. Note my velocities from my real world pistol, (not a test barrel) below.
a. Sig. Mod. 229, 4 inch barrel - 1,430 fps (567 ft. lbs.)

Since the beginning of time, the demonic races have gathered every century to resolve conflicts among them and to determine the course of their future. This centennial event was called the Dark Congress.
In the second century b.c., however, the Dark Congress failed to resolve their conflicts. Instead, the Congress ignited into a war that drove wedges between the various demon races from that time until now. And all of it began as a result of Kandida, the great North African river demon, being nearly killed by forces in the Congress and magically entombed in the riverbank.
But now, Kandida is free, and for the first time in centuries, the Dark Congress is being called again. All demon races and other varieties of supernatural creatures have been called to gather at the Hellmouth in Providence, Rhode Island. Some gather in hopes of resolution, some in favor of war, and Kandida is tasked to broker a treaty and guide the Congress to peace, wherein everyone might simply agree to disagree. And so the demons gather under a banner of a truce.
But the demons still harbor many bitter disagreements with one another. The Congress must have an arbiter of these conflicts, and that someone is Buffy Summers.
Buffy is horrified and disgusted to be included. After all, she is not a demon...is she? She knows so little about her powers that she cannot say for certain where they truly spring from. How can she spend so much time wallowing in the darkness without becoming part of it? Can she possibly agree to a truce with all the horrors of the world, and allow them to come Providence without any attempt to stop them? And does she have a choice?

Craftsman push mower low rpm
blar2005(43065)May 10, 2010
Had my Craftsman push mower (6.75HP mulcher) for about 8 years and while recently mowing under a tree the mower coughed and died. Restarted fine, but now the engine runs like a 2.5 HP mower and does not have the same power it had. Checked the plug - clean. Oil good. Gas fine. Under the mower there is no obstruction around the blade or shaft. It starts up and runs fine, but seems to have alot less rpm's. Checked the throttle - maxed out. Air filter good. Any thoughts?

Archbishop Demetrios Expresses Concern over Rhetoric to Convert Hagia Sophia into a Mosque
Dec 19, 2013
NEW YORK – His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios, Primate of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, expressed his grave concern over current rhetoric by some Turkish state officials regarding the intention to convert the historic Hagia Sophia (the magnificent 6th-century Orthodox Christian Cathedral of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople) from a museum to a functioning mosque. Such a step might be interpreted as an expression of intensification of state Islamization policies causing an elimination of Christianity from its 2000-year presence in its lands of origin.
Hagia Sophia's significance as a religious site and globally recognized symbol of intercultural respect and sacred beauty is reflected in the 1985 UNESCO designation of Hagia Sophia as a world heritage site. The Archbishop stated, "If any shift should occur from the current use of Hagia Sophia as a museum, then, the Turkish government should allow it to operate as originally intended and as it functioned for almost 1000 years, as a Christian Cathedral and not as a mosque."

Ajax, the Dutch, the War: The Strange Tale of Soccer during Europe's Darkest HourPosted by Simon Kuper, September 13, 2012 1:00 pm No Comments Filed under: Original Essays.
I am not Dutch, but when I was six years old my Dad took a job in the small town of Leiden, and so I spent most of my school years in the Netherlands. I grew up on Dutch Resistance stories. Even in the '70s and '80s, World War II seemed to be all around us. I played soccer and cricket with a gangling, friendly boy whose grandfather, proprietor of a cigar shop, had run the local Resistance. At school I was fed the prevalent Dutch myth of the day: that the Dutch had been "goed" (good) in the war. When they weren't sending Germans the wrong way to the station, they were bringing food to hidden Jews. These were the stories I imbibed until I left the country in 1986.
In adulthood I began writing a book about the Dutch war — a book that I first completed in Dutch in 2000 and later rewrote in English for a British publisher in 2003, and which is now being published in the U.S. for the first time as Ajax, the Dutch, the War: The Strange Tale of Soccer during Europe's Darkest Hour. By the time I began writing, I had come to realize (as had most Dutch people) that the war myths that I had been raised on were not quite right. Not every Dutch person had been in the Resistance. To the contrary: about 75 percent of Dutch Jews were killed in the war, the highest proportion outside of Polandabout 75 percent of Dutch Jews were killed in the war, the highest proportion outside of Poland.
What I wanted to capture in the book was daily life under the occupation. How had ordinary Dutch people experienced those years? Partly for that reason, I wrote about the war through the prism of another Dutch national obsession: soccer. In a country where joining your local soccer club was as much a male rite of passage as anything to do with girls, I figured that soccer would be the place where the war met ordinary life. Having found my topic, the problem then became: How to unearth it? Researching this book was more difficult and harrowing than anything else I have ever written. I never want to repeat the experience, but it gave me new insights into the Holocaust and into the country I had thought I knew well.
First I knocked on the door of the Dutch soccer federation, the KNVB. But its documents for the period of 1940 to 1945 seemed to have disappeared. I went to Ajax Amsterdam, the country's premier club, supported by many of the Amsterdam Jews who perished in the death camps, and met its charming octogenarian archivist Wim Schoevaart, a club member since 1930. (Today Schoevaart is a nonagenarian and still going strong.) I told him I was writing a book about Dutch soccer, Ajax, the Jews, and the war, and he kindly told me I was wasting my time because I would soon find out there wasn't enough to say. One of Ajax's club directors barred me from seeing the club's archive on the grounds that there was "nothing interesting in it for you."
I later came to understand that Ajax's wartime history was not so much evil as complicated and uncomfortable. Some club members, like Schoevaart's own uncle, had hidden Jews in the war; a few others had been monsters, including a guy who had been a concentration-camp guard known for beating prisoners with a bull pizzle; and most Ajax members, like most Dutch people in the war, had been neither goed nor fout ("wrong," in the Dutch phrase) but had merely tried to get through the war with as little personal damage as possible, and had enjoyed their soccer along the way.
Barred from the club's archives, I went looking for wartime survivors willing to talk. Some were desperate to talk. Bennie Muller, half-Jewish former captain of Ajax and Holland, grabbed his head and rubbed his eyes when I walked into his Amsterdam cigar shop and asked for an interview. "Must we do this?" he asked. "Then everything will be dredged up again." As a child in Amsterdam's Jewish quarter, Muller had spent most of the war in fear that the Germans would take his mother; they didn't, but they killed most of her family. He led me into the back room of his shop, gave me a seat "for two minutes," and then talked for an hour and a half.
In hindsight, the months in 1999 and 2000 that I spent in Amsterdam doing my research were about the last time that anyone could have found significant numbers of Holocaust survivors still able to speak. I got to know a man named Meijer Stad, who had survived being executed in Buchenwald in 1945, and Leon Greenman, the only English Jew sent to Auschwitz. There he had become friends with an American Jew and former Ajax player named Eddy Hamel, who hadn't survived.
Seeing Dutch Jewish families up close, I learned that more than 50 years after the war, they were still destroyed by it. Many people I saw were crazy. The families themselves were often patched up: you returned from the camps to find that your whole family had been murdered, and so you began calling an old Jewish survivor around your grandfather's age "grandpa," invented new cousins and aunts, and somehow struggled on. For these survivors, there could never be any coming to terms, no "closure."For these survivors, there could never be any coming to terms, no "closure." Many of the men became workaholics as a way to avoid thinking about what had happened. After I had interviewed them, some began treating me as their therapist. They had gone decades barely talking to anyone about the war. Once they had begun talking about it to me, they often didn't want to stop, even when I desperately wanted to.
In the end I did find an excellent archive. Rummaging around in Rotterdam's municipal archive one day, I chanced upon the files of the Sparta Rotterdam club. Not a scrap of paper at Sparta seemed to have been thrown away or edited or retold in a different way decades later. The neat files contained the oddest documents: every letter Sparta sent in the war (including the polite notifications to Jewish members in 1941 that regrettably they had been expelled), as well as club journals and painstakingly typed minutes of anguished board meetings. I even found a cardboard sign, with the pinholes still in it, which, when unfolded, revealed the text: "FORBIDDEN FOR JEWS." Presumably it had hung at the club's premises during the occupation. Sparta's archive gave a sense of daily life in organized Holland like nothing else I encountered.
My book ended up spanning far beyond the Netherlands. I went to Germany, Britain, France, and Switzerland to trace their stories of soccer in the war. The conflict takes on a whole new dimension when you know, for instance, that on June 22, 1941, the day Germany invaded the Soviet Union, the decisive act of the entire war, 90,000 spectators watched the German league final in Berlin. What were they thinking of?
I am glad I wrote the book. Nobody could write it now. As the historian Christopher Browning wrote recently, we are reaching "the end of the survivor era." Almost all the shattered old men I interviewed twelve years ago are dead now. Recording their stories before it was too late felt like a duty. But I couldn't do anything like it again. In fact, since finishing the book, I have found myself almost unable to read or hear anything about the Holocaust. Even though my book takes place almost entirely outside the camps, and often on soccer fields, I only had the strength to immerse myself in the topic once in my life. I hope readers will have the courage to read it and will learn more about the ordinariness as well as the horror of life in occupied Western Europe.

why don't you publish a page with a few different styles and then take the votes?
Today you published a page for example, that had advertising down both sides of the main body and for me, it was much easier to read. Much less glare.
Its the simple things in life,,,,,
Oh and i meant to say, i don't think it was so much the "change" that was the issue, it was the smack in the face that caused the trouble. But i am pleased that i knew you'd be listening.

Proprietary Busses have been around much longer than that with perhaps the DEC Unibus being the most well known and born in the late 60's.
Many OEM's used this to produce industrial machine tool controllers from the 70's onwards.
It's not a radical thought at all.
It would be easy to rant about this and i was tempted.
As any good troubleshooter knows, you have to find the root cause of a problem to provide an effective fix.

Our problem is that there are too many humans requiring too many resources.
Therefore the answer is obvious except that its too controversial. Even worse than nuclear power.
Its free and you can watch all the judder free content you like.
I agree with you entirely and my point is that while we do have cash it will remain, for the most part, anonymous. A good thing in my view. Although it would appear that there are some amongst us who would like each and every financial transaction logged. I wonder why?
Bitcoin or any of the others for that matter will be traceable eventually which is the point of the article.
about this?
We have an anonymous system now. It's called cash!
Sure it can be traced but i'd liked to see a forensic specialist do a traceroute on a fiver over the course of a Friday night in a busy bar. Must be nigh on impossible.
After reading this several times, and some of the report, i'm struggling to see how this makes the UK "tech-savvy"
All it says is that the UK has more connectivity.
Whether the country is "tech-savvy" is highly questionable.
I did. Four corners and a line across.
yip, you're right. I overlooked that small detail.
I wonder how much Auntie makes from flashing it abroad!
because, this afternoon, many pages were hanging waiting for ad.doubleclick.net including the BBC news page,
And i thought the beeb was ad free and funded by the tax payer.........
where the attendees listen to the presenters and interact; ask questions and take part in a debate, rather than updating farcebook or tweeting.
Two tweets make a twat!
No wifi........... OMFG we're all going to die.
And i don't mean Polos :>)
The last one being a 3.2 litre V8 which i loved. The guy i sold it to had it converted to run LPG. Without going into the ins and outs of that conversion, the car then returned the equivalent of 42 MPG when calculating the cost per mile of dual fuel.
LPG was switched in on motorway cruising usually.
But the car i regret selling was a 1990 3.6 XJS 4 speed auto. Always returned about 27 MPG on a motorway run, if you kept the right foot light.
It's bad enough storing your whole life in your wallet. I can't see many taking the ultimate step to transfer that risk to a mobile phone.
But you never know.
I'm going to have a huge smile on my face when Facebook goes titsup.
I think it has a fatal disease with no known cure!!
Petrol has become the enabler that allows you to "commute" to work which you have to pay for.
Its not so long ago that most workers either walked to work or used public transport.
Great article.
Thats because so many have been claimed by the suicide bombers who are allocated a given number by the Jihadist Committee depending on which energy supply they are fighting to control.
53 is my favourite!
but out of that lot, which ones are energy self sufficient and which ones are laundering the riches of the few?
And Croatia is already an EU member, so that leaves a few basket cases, does it not?
For all of its failings, the EU is still a better bet to my mind. And please note, there are no other sabres being rattled by a party in government, anywhere in Europe, that openly declares that if they win the next election they will have a referendum on EU membership.
I firmly believe that's the wrong choice for England.
As someone else has pointed out, the elephant in the room is Germany but whats not to like about the way that they run their economy?
In any case, the UK and Europe were doing well before the big banks, not only in Scotland, fucked up the worlds economy.
I'd vote yes, only if there was a promise to adopt the euro and become a fully integrated member of the EU.
The world is too small for Nationalism and small countries to stand apart.
Just for the record, i think England should do the same.
So, i finally got to ask the question last night...in the boozer.
The verbatim reply was "that's show business. you have to sell news somehow".
So there you have it. It made me laugh.
He wasn't there.
I will report back but when is another matter.
"All in all, researchers found 17 previously undiscovered religious monuments"
How do they know that?
They were just as likely to have been pagan cannibals for all we know.
But since one of the guys who works for the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute and who did the scans at Stonehenge, drinks in my local bar, i'll ask him tonight.
so we'll have to agree to disagree.
The very name "Television without Frontiers" implies that broadcasts are freely available across member states. But then it depends from which angle you read this. Yes it's to prevent member states blocking transmissions, but unfortunately, the BBC has chosen to restrict the satellite pattern making it nigh on impossible in most of europe to receive these broadcasts and i'm quite sure thats not what was intended by the directive.
But lets look at it another way. The BBC's commercial arm flogs BBC entertainment channels to most of the european cable companies. Allowing FTA channels on Astra in Europe would and did severely undermine that business. The BBC justifies that move by citing copyright and contract infringement. Crap! BBC news on the other hand is freely available everywhere. What a surprise.
I don't see any FTA restriction over satellite from any other EU countries.
Yes indeed but what am i misunderstanding?
Prior to January 2014, Astra 2D was available across Europe with a big enough dish. ( up to 1.5M) This carried not only Freesat but the Sky channels as well.
Come January 2014, actually the opening day of the winter olympics in Sochi. Astra 2E was brought into operation and instantly and deliberately restricted reception across most of mainland Europe. Under the guise of "it will aid reception in the far north"
Are you telling me that this is not "taking action to restrict the availability of programmes from other member states" ?
Thats not the only way.
This works well outside of the UK https://adtelly.tv/chrome-extension/ and gives you access to BBC & ITV as well as iplayer.
F.T.V is available as an android app and is available in XBMC which gives you access to more content that you can shake a stick at. Much of it in high quality.
But this is not the real problem. The BBC and others ( in Europe) are actively trying to restrict their content, claiming copyright issues and this flies in the face of EU broadcasting directives.
You can read about it here and i direct you to the paragraph headed General Principle.
As for being able to watch UK FTA channels in Europe, Astra2 cut off most of Europe in January when they fired up the new Astra 2E sat and thereby cut off Freesat to most of mainland Europe.
In my opinion, totally disregarding the EU directives.
Sky, BT, BBC are in my opinion, illegally trying to block IPTV, much of which is accessed across a VPN and they are getting away with it.
If they made it available at reasonable cost across Europe at least, then the problem would go away overnight.
ha ha
both of you
Whats a registry?
Should that not be Hendrix Experience?
Fuck yeah..
best comment I've ever read.
have a pint.
It could be a spoonful of coffee, it could be a spoonful of tea
But one little spoon of your precious love, is good enough for me
Men lies about that spoonful, some of them dies about that spoonful
made famous by Jack,Eric and Ginger of course
this argument over 32 or 64.
As far as i remember, 64 bit architectures had an address space of around 41 bits, still a huge improvement over 4GB i suppose. The rest is reserved for ECC, pointers and page frame numbers etc.
So is there really any benefit in a handheld device? I don't know and perhaps you boffins out there could explain the technical benefits other than huge amounts of RAM to flood with cached data.
I agree but lets show some data.
I don't know if this website has an axe to grind but here goes anyway.
Make of it what you will. The data is only included to year 2000.
And for your further reading
Only kidding :>)
where did i say it was a problem?
because he is quite right to point out the hypocrisy of the green brigade.
Here in Austria, there are no kangaroos btw, there is a well developed Nimby mentality that protest against the damming of rivers, the erection of 380Kv power lines, an anti nuclear power station campaign group, electric "green car" campaigners and environmentalists of all shapes and sizes. But when you point out the obvious to them, they bury their heads in the sand.
For example, most new builds of property are built with a "Tiefgarage", (underground garage )office blocks, apartments etc. This uses huge amounts of concrete. Are they bothered? No! Vienna consumes 10% of all the power in Austria, most of which comes from a nuclear power station in Slovakia. Switch it off i tell them. Are you mad they ask? And when you point out that if everyone in Austria bought an electric car tomorrow, they would have to build two nuclear power stations to cope with demand.
Given that the Internet alone is projected to consume 17% of ALL the worlds power in just a few years, any amount of tinkering with energy production will not solve the root problem.
So get over it all you eco-warriors, either we stop doubling the worlds population every 50 years, the root cause of most of the worlds problems, or we keep developing our own Armageddon because that is surely what will happen.
I trust this is a typo and you meant existing?
Can't imagine getting excited about Oracle apps at all :>)
and quite happy about it. When i want to tell my friends something, i use that old fashioned e-mail thingy. And not gmail or hotmail i hasten to add.
I've got a friend who can't leave his fondleslab alone for more than 10 seconds....ooh a Facebook update..ping ping fuckin ping. Drives me mental sitting in a bar trying to having a quiet pint!!
So come on all Troglodytes lets stand together and eradicate this menace now before we all turn into blobs of blithering, bloated buffoons.
Yes you're right of course but tape is still being used and will continue to be used for a long time because of compliance issues, of which there are many. Basel 3 & Sarbane Oxley for financial markets for example.
Tapes are easily portable and relatively long lasting especially in the hands of professional data vault companies.
I think that's what the auditors care about more than the restore time.
In any case, most companies these days days keep several "online" copies of the data just in case the data centre goes down. Again a compliance issue.
"How else could kit shipped through normal channels be diverted into the NSA's hands long enough for it to be tampered with?"
Because they have set up spoof companies to do just that ?
to these expensive picture frames that seem to be so popular is this..
Minix Neo X7 which comes pre-installed with Xbmc and once its setup properly you can watch anything, anywhere in the world with a wifi connection and an hdmi port to a screen and it's very portable. The browser also gets you access to youtube or facebook or whatever your poison is.
So it's a smart telly in your pocket if you like.
I recommend xfinity and fusion, download the addons like Filmon for Uk telly and Icefilms et voila!!
Costs about 100 quid or so, plus your usb sticks for recordings of course.
IPTV is the way forward
Do you honestly believe that Microsoft runs all of its business on its own software?
I'm not a Unity hater. It's actually not bad and i used it for several months. But i prefer the look and feel of Mate or Cinammon and currently i'm using both.
They are pleasing on the eye by default and much more intuitive from a management perspective.
Ubuntu admittedly is a bit less hassle to get up and running but you "takes your choice".

The De-Textbook probably won't set your world on fire and set you on a crusade against Untruth, but it is funny, irreverent, and out to do what schools won't and Cracked does best: debunk myths so ingrained in our minds, we don't even notice them. Well, most of us don't anyway. Of course, if you have healthy reading habits, you already know a good few of the facts the De-Textbook contains, but buy it anyway, most people would find some curious titbit they had no idea about on these pages and the book can stand on its own as pure entertainment.

Ivan Ramen: Love, Obsession, and Recipes from Tokyo's Most Unlikely Noodle Joint (repost)

Ivan Ramen: Love, Obsession, and Recipes from Tokyo's Most Unlikely Noodle Joint by David Chang
English | Oct 29, 2013 | ISBN: 1607744465 | 224 Pages | EPUB | 22 MB
In 2007, Orkin, a middle-aged Jewish guy from Long Island, did something crazy. In the food-zealous, insular megalopolis of Tokyo, Ivan opened a ramen shop. He was a gaijin (foreigner), trying to make his name in a place that is fiercely opinionated about ramen. At first, customers came because they were curious, but word spread quickly about Ivan's handmade noodles, clean and complex broth, and thoughtfully prepared toppings. Soon enough, Ivan became a celebrity—a fixture of Japanese TV programs and the face of his own best-selling brand of instant ramen. Ivan opened a second location in Tokyo, and has now returned to New York City to open his first US branch.

5 LGBT Characters We'd Love to See in a Justice League Movie
BY Brian Andersen
June 12 2014 9:00 AM ET
Superhero movies have taken over Hollywood. We have five flying at us this year alone: Captain America: The Winter's Soldier, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Guardians of the Galaxy. Thus far Marvel Comics has won the war on getting the most successful movies to the big screen – making buckets of cash in the process.
But after the success of last year's Man of Steel, DC Comics is fighting back with Batman vs. Superman feature film in 2016, followed by a live-action Justice League movie. While we gay geeks might be celebrating seeing our favorite heroes running away with the box office we still have yet to see a queer hero hit the silver screen.
The time is ripe for an LGBT hero to take center stage, and one way DC Comics can trump Marvel's runaway success is by being the first to include a queer hero in their upcoming Justice League feature. To plead our case, we've provided DC Comics with a handy list of the top five LGBT characters that would make great additions to a future Justice League film.
Debuting in 1983, Obsidian has been a member of several superhero teams including, Infinity Inc., the Justice Society of America, and the Justice League. He came out in 2006 in the underrated Manhunter comic book series written by out comic scribe Marc Andreyko.
Why him?
While we've yet to see Obsidian in the new rebooted DC comic book universe, his absence works out great for the director and writer(s) of any Justice League film. Obsidian would be a perfect new, fresh character free of the burden of continuity baggage or public perception. Obsidian would also provide a great way to introduce the audience to the world of the Justice League through his eyes as new member joining the team. Plus his ability to control shadows would be an exciting special effect to witness in a dark theater with a bucket of popcorn.

The park has come up on a sprawling 75.73 acres near Sivaganga
Exporters of spices in southern districts vie with one another to get a coveted space in the maiden Spices Park at Muthupatti near here.
When Union Finance Minister P Chidambaram laid the foundation stone for the park in the nondescript Muthupatti on the outskirts of Sivaganga in August 2008, not many exporters were aware of the facility on the anvil. And when he inaugurated the park on October 6 exporters started making a beeline to set up their units.
"Soon after the inauguration there was overwhelming response from the exporters and 25 units were booked in no time. There were more than 25 applications for the remaining 12 slots and they will be allotted on the first-come first served basis," Mr S. Nallakannu, Deputy Director, Spices Board, Sivaganga, told The Hindu. The allotment process would be completed in the next two weeks, he added.
Each unit, measuring one acre and above was being allotted at the rate of Rs. 5 lakh per acre to the exporters, who were registered with Spices Board India. The exporters should set up the facilities within the stipulated two year period and those who failed to do so would forfeit the allotment, he said.
The Madurai based M/s Devi Industries has been allotted four units and it expected to commence the work shortly, he said. In the next two years, the park would be buzzing with activity, providing direct and indirect employment to as many as 2,000 people in this area, Mr Nallakannu said.
The park had been created mainly to empower the farmers who grow spices in and around the district and ensure better price realisation besides helping exporters to process the products and export after adding value, he said. Farmers from Ilayankudi, Kalayarkoil, RS Mangalam, Kamudhi could benefit from the park.
Established at a cost of Rs. 20 crore, the park has come up on a sprawling 75.73 acres. It was divided into two zones – facilitating zone and exporters' zone. In the facilitating zone, two semi-automatic plants had been set up to process and add value to chilli and coriander (in one plant) and turmeric.
The plant for processing chilli and coriander had the capacity to grind the two products at 500 kg an hour and automatically pack the powder in 50 gm to 5 kg in retail packing and 5 kg to 50 kg in bulk packing. The plant also had the capacity to process two tonnes of whole chilli in an hour and pack them in 25 and 50 kg bags, he added.
The two plants were in operation and farmers could make use of the facilities to process their spices products and sell them after value addition and for better price realisation, he said.
The facilitating zone also had two godowns for keeping raw material and finished goods, a sterilisation plant, administrative office building, building for bank, fire fighting system and a power house, he said. The export zone had facilities like a 1.6 lakh litre capacity water tank, roads, underground water lines, stormwater drainage and weigh bridge, besides external lightings, he said.

HANNIBAL Gets Cannibalized By The Network
If you notice a strange jump in the storyline for HANNIBAL, currently airing on NBC, it's because the network decided to not air the fourth installment of the series citing sensitivity issues.

So, they decided instead to severely edit the episode and post … Continue reading

We stayed here for a couple of nights and we have been very impressed by this small hotel. The service was great and the room was pretty comfortable for the 2 of us and our 5 year old daughter. The room was very clean, well sized bathroom with ceramic tile floors and granite countertops not what we were expecting for sure. The hotel offers daily breakfast and it was pretty decent. We chose to eat have breakfast in our room the second night just because we wanted to use the nice table there looking at the mountains.
The hotel is very close to the Lower Town but not all the roads are pedestrian friendly. Once you get from the hotel to Washington Street (abt an 8- 10 minute walk) then you are fine and it will be another 20 minutes to get there (with a kid).

In a championship game that few envisioned back in September after Ohio State's befuddling home loss to Virginia Tech, the Buckeyes have a real chance to win Monday night.
As a matter of fact, my model shows the Buckeyes outgaining the vaunted Oregon offense in total yards and yards per play, two metrics that are crucial to winning. The margins are razor thin, but would be enough to favor the Buckeyes if the projected turnover numbers were equal (or favored Ohio State).
But the Ducks have only turned the ball over 10 times all season in 1,047 offensive plays. Comparatively, the Buckeyes have played fast and loose with the ball at times, turning the ball over 22 times. That's about 1.6 a game and while that's not terrible, Oregon simply hasn't turned the ball over and the probability is that Ohio State will have more turnovers than Oregon.
The model I use projects that each turnover lost decreases a team's probability of winning by about 8.8% (assuming other metrics stay the same). With a projected turnover advantage of 1, the Ducks probability of winning is 57.0%.
The Buckeyes recipe for success is simple: Don't turn the ball over or force Oregon to do something the Ducks haven't done all season – turn the ball over. Just being even in turnovers would give the flip the odds to 51.9% in the Buckeye's favor, but that's easier said than done.
It's not unique to suggest that turnovers will determine the outcome of a game, but the model allows us to put a value on each turnover and what they may mean in the context of winning and losing the initial College Football Playoff National Championship Game.
