The location of the hotel is near and round the corner of the Kyoto railway station. It comes with basic facilities is similar to other cities hotel (which mean nothing like what you expected as a Japanese style room). The room is small and so is the toilet. However, the room does come with television but not safe deposit box (if you need either of this or both). The room does have a fridge for use. There is no specific cupboard, however it does has a space for hanging clothing. The hotel does have an elevator. It also allows free storage of your luggage. It has a quiet environment for a good night rest. The Main Railway Station is about 10-mins walking distance and also there are a few stores before reaching the hotel. The hotel lobby and room come with free wifi. The spa or public bath area is bigger than its sister hotel in Osaka. It has an indoor and outdoor pool. The hotel also has lesser floor then its sister hotel in Osaka which translate to lesser people using the public bath area.

I started carbonating my Irish Dry Stout with a 75/25 nitrogen and CO2 blend at 5 psi 8 days ago. When I want to pour my beer using my stout tap it came out very flat and had no body to it. Since then I increased it to 10 psi. Just wondering what recommendations people have using a gas blend for what psi and for how long it should take to carbonate fully.
Kegged: Dark American Lager
Belgian Wit
Next up: Hefeweizen
Nitrogen doesn't absorb into beer, and your pressure is too low to carbonate it. Push that sucker up to 25 PSI.
Yea, in the future it may be easier to carb on CO2 to 1.5-2 volumes depending on your preference, and then put it on the beer gas for dispensing.
I can't be arsed to keep up this list of what's in the fermenters, but hey, check out the cool brewery I own!
twitter.com/2kidsbrewing .. facebook.com/2kidsbrewing .. 2kidsbrewing.com
I actually had it on CO2 for a week prior and purged it before transferring it to beer gas. What is the benefit of using CO2 first?
Just faster carb times at lower pressure. Nitro beers are usually carbed to a low level, plus beer gas is more expensive than CO2.
I carb mine with CO2 set at 5-8. lbs (my fridge is at 45) for a week or two and then hook it up to the beergas. I set that to 30-35 lbs and get a perfect pour.
Thanks for all the feedback. I went ahead and adjusted it to 30 psi. I plan on checking it in a week to see how things have progressed. Being that this was my first interaction with nitrogen, I am just now learning how it acts differently than CO2.
Well just to report back I went ahead and adjusted the stout to 30 psi for about 10 days and it had a great pour. It had the nice cascading effect that we expect to see with stouts on nitrogen. This method seemed to work well and have recently kegged my Oatmeal stout and plan on checking on it after a week to see where it is at. I hoping to have all three beers ready to serve for Christmas dinner next Tuesday.

The Irish team beat the Tri-Nations champions on a dismal day in Croke Park. Jonny Sexton, a newcomer to the team as out-half, gave a brilliant performance, kicking 15 points in all. The score was 15-10.
At half time South Africa were 10-6 in front, but Ireland came back after the break following a penalty kick. The Irish team kept their lead for the second half, going on to beat South Africa for the third time in a row, according to a Reuters report.
This means Ireland goes into to the Six Nations tour next year with 11 straight wins. Congratulations again to the boys in green.

Slow DSL and virus protection.
TDS says Microsoft Essentials and other free protection causes my DSL to slow down. Is this possible? Of course, TDS wants to add around $5 a month to my bill for their "better" virus protection!
you are right they want to be able to sell you their protection my guess it would be McAfee or Norton based which are much more resource hogs than the free MSE or Avast.
any type of good AV program can slow you down some, depends on the program some are much worse than others. Any program that runs real time uses resources that is how it works period.
Virus protection programs, especially Norton, slow your machine down terribly. They have nothing to do with the DSL speed. Yes, I suppose that if you have a faster DSL, it might help, but the problem is your machine crunching the boggy program, not your connection speed.

BASEBALL: INSIDE BASEBALL; The Braves Add Hits To a Winning Formula
By MURRAY CHASS
Published: May 18, 2003
The appearance of the Atlanta Braves atop the National League East produces no surprises, even though wishful thinkers were prepared to bury them early last month. But what is surprising is the reason they are in a familiar place.
Unlike their annual experience during their run of 11 consecutive division titles, the Braves are in first not because of their pitching but because of their hitting.
They began play yesterday with the league's second-highest batting average (.279 to St. Louis's .281) and second-highest run total (228 to Colorado's 236). But their 4.15 earned run average was 11th, unheard of for a Bobby Cox-Leo Mazzone staff.
They have had the N.L.'s lowest E.R.A. the past six seasons and 9 of the past 11. The only times they did not lead the league were in 1996, when they were second, and in 1991, when they were third.
In those 11 seasons, they never led the league in batting average or runs scored. They were ninth in average the last two seasons and were lower in runs scored, 10th last year and 13th the year before.
But look at the batting leaders this season. The names Gary Sheffield, Marcus Giles, Andruw Jones and Rafael Furcal appear liberally among the top 10 batters in a large variety of categories. Sheffield (.348), Furcal (.339) and Giles (.336), for example, were among the league's top six hitters before yesterday's games.
Sheffield was, among other rankings, second in batting average, third in on-base percentage (.443) and third in slugging (.630). He was also the league's best hitter on the road by 80 points (.468) and the second-best hitter at night (.374).
Sheffield was the Braves' designated antidote to the production problems they had in 2001. The Mets had great difficulty scoring runs that season, too, and their answer was Mo Vaughn. The Mets still have problems scoring runs. Atlanta does not.
That is because Sheffield has had plenty of help. Take Giles, for example. Twenty-five years old today, he is the brother of Brian Giles, the Pittsburgh Pirates' best hitter. Marcus was an afterthought, in baseball, that is. The Braves selected him in the 53rd round of the 1996 draft.
In what figures to be his first full season in the majors, Marcus Giles, a 5-foot-8 second baseman, was tied for fifth in hitting (.336) and had the best daytime average (.512).
Furcal was third in daytime hitting (.405) and Jones was tied for fourth (.400). Little surprise that the Braves have won 9 of 10 day games. Jones has not done badly at night either and led the teams with 10 home runs and 40 runs batted in, leaving him only 2 R.B.I. behind Preston Wilson of Colorado.
All of this lusty hitting did not materialize immediately when the season began. With their pitching off to a staggering start, the Braves lost 8 of their first 12 games and set off a torrent of speculation that their reign was coming to an end.
''We're used to that,'' General Manager John Schuerholz said. ''We've been buried many times. There have been many premature reports of our demise. We've become fairly used to that. What was striking and strange was how badly we played the first 12 games. How we're playing now is not surprising.''
Forecasts about the Braves' demise began during the off-season, prompted by the major shuffle of the pitching staff. The Braves let Tom Glavine leave as a free agent and traded Kevin Millwood and Damian Moss. And those were only the changes in the starting rotation. The Braves replaced them with Russ Ortiz, Mike Hampton and Shane Reynolds.
''We were able to replenish and replace the veteran pitching leadership that we lost with Glavine, Millwood and Mike Remlinger in the bullpen,'' Schuerholz said.
The Braves re-signed Greg Maddux, but he was uncharacteristically battered in his first three starts, allowing 18 earned runs in 14 2/3 innings; even now he is 3-5 with a 4.85 E.R.A.
''We played well in spring training, and when the season started it was strange,'' Schuerholz said. ''When it happened, it gave those who were ready to close the lid on the coffin an opportunity to slam it shut. We thought this would be a good team. They guffawed at that, and when we started 4-8 the eulogies started.''
But since that 4-8 start, powered by Sheffield and friends, the Braves have won 25 of 30 games.
It took until May 2, but the Braves broke a tie with Montreal and took over first place. They have been there since.
Ortiz, acquired from San Francisco for Moss, has become the staff leader, going 5-2 with a 3.26 E.R.A. But the saving feature of the pitching staff has been the closer, John Smoltz, with 17 saves in 17 chances.
The saving feature of the team, however, has been the hitters. It is about time they carried the Braves.
Cubs' Pitchers in Focus
Unlike the Braves, the Cubs are in first because of their pitching, namely Kerry Wood and Mark Prior, the young right-handers who would make any starting rotation more than respectable. Wood, 25, has a 4-1 record and a 2.44 E.R.A., Prior (22) 5-1 and 2.02. There is also Carlos Zambrano, 21, who is 4-3 and 3.27. They are not an accident but are there by design.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Part of the festivities include a groundbreaking to begin a project restoring the Mariposa Grove, which consists of 500 mature giant sequoia trees. The trees are among the oldest living organisms in the world.
President Abraham Lincoln's signature on the Yosemite Land Grant bill on June 30, 1864, set a precedent for the preservation of the young country's wilderness, becoming the first instance of the U.S. government setting aside scenic wilderness for public use and preservation.
In this Aug. 27, 2009 photo, giant sequoias dwarf a cabin in the upper Mariposa Grove at Yosemite National Park, Calif. Yosemite National Park is celebrating the 150th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln's signing of the Yosemite Grant Act, Monday, June 30, 2014, which protected Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove. The event will include a groundbreaking ceremony for a project to restore Mariposa Grove, which consists of 500 mature giant sequoia trees that are among the oldest living organisms in the world.

Now I reinstalled the original rom (not quite, i cannot find the original, i had to install the Tab710 stock rom instead), but the problems are still there.
So the problems are:
- wifi doesn't start. I switch wifi on but it doesn't start and it switch back off
- the screen, after a while that is on sleep, doesn't turn on
I'm mainly interested in the wifi problem, it's useless without a connection (it has no 3G module).
Any idea? Thanks in advance everybody!

Marcus Bachmann's Clinic: A Closer Look at Reparative Therapy
July 22, 2011
It's no secret that Michele and Marcus Bachmann are rabidly anti-gay, and that Marcus Bachmann's clinic – which has received $137,000 in Medicaid funding – allegedly performs reparative therapy. Nearly 22,000 people have signed HRC's petition calling on GOP presidential candidates to publicly condemn this dangerous practice and the Bachmann's support – add your voice to the growing ranks.
The Bachmann's support for reparative therapy isn't just bizarre and far out of the mainstream – it's dangerous. The results can include depression, loneliness and even thoughts of suicide. In fact, leading medical organizations like the American Psychological Association and the American Psychiatric Association have strongly condemned the practice.
Here are a few more reparative therapy factoids, just in case you need a clearer picture of how fringe this practice is:
- According to CNN, a patient at Marcus Bachmann's clinic in 2004 was told reparative therapy would lead to God performing "a miracle and [he] could no longer be gay." The patient was told if initial treatments didn't work, his alternative was to live a life of celibacy.
- While arguing that same-sex attraction doesn't necessarily equate to being gay, the National Association for Research & Therapy of Homosexuality makes the case that those "trapped" in the gay "sexual habit pattern" face life-threatening conditions.
- One man who participated in reparative therapy for 12 years says one-third of the 15 men with him in the program at the time ended up taking their own lives.

On mine, it stopped ringing and Only vibrates. Needless to say, this renders the function useless.
I've tried restarting both devices and verifying that the volumes are on and blocking mode is off.
But to no avail.
Could this be due to Null Rom?

The Pulse: Offseason Intro
Welcome to The Pulse, the place to find out what the sports world is thinking. Every day on ESPN.com, SportsNation registers its opinion on a wide range of topics by casting votes and chatting with experts in The Show. We collect the daily highlights and put them in The Pulse.
|Do you need to be a mile high to think T.O. would work our for the Broncos?
The NFL offseason is upon us, but T.O. seems to have become a story for all seasons. The entirely enigmatic receiver is looking for a new home, whether via a trade or after being released by the Eagles, and the Denver Broncos appear to be the leading suitor. A majority of voters think it's a good idea for the Broncos to get him if Super Bowl XLI is the goal, but even more voters think the pass-catching paradox is incapable of going two or three years without causing problems.
Of course, T.O. isn't the only big name on the market, not with Shaun Alexander and Edgerrin James potentially up for grabs. But surprisingly, it's not the reigning MVP or a perennial Pro Bowler who voters would most like to add to the backfield this summer; that honor goes to Reggie Bush.
31.1% Patriots
27.2% Colts
26.0% Steelers
9.1% Seahawks
6.4% Panthers
Which team would be more likely to reach the Super Bowl next season? (8,164 votes)
58.7% Broncos with Terrell Owens
41.2% Broncos without Terrell Owens
Would adding Terrell Owens be a good move for the Broncos? (67,222 votes)
55.0% Yes
44.9% No
Under the right circumstances, do you think Terrell Owens is capable of playing two or three years for a team without causing any major problems? (7,881 votes)
64.6% No
35.4% Yes
Which team reportedly interested in Terrell Owens would be the best fit for him? (7,881 votes)
49.5% Denver Broncos
27.4% Kansas City Chiefs
23.1% Miami Dolphins
Which running back would you most want to add in the offseason? (103,867 votes)
41.7% Reggie Bush
33.7% Shaun Alexander
24.4% Edgerrin James
What will happen with Seattle free agents Shaun Alexander and Steve Hutchinson? (42,234 votes)
35.4% Both will return
26.4% Only Hutchinson will return
26.2% Only Alexander will return
12.8% Neither will return
Will the Steelers be able to keep Antwaan Randle El from leaving in free agency? (6,832 votes)
50.7% Yes
49.2% No
Todd (Georgia)
I never consider Donovan McNabb to be an idiot, but yes the black-on-black-crime statement devalued his argument. But I'll give him some slack, because he has always been sensitive about racial issues and every criticism he's evoked during his career has mostly focused on his skin color. Can you blame him for going there?
Mark (Washington, D.C.)
I still really don't care. But by calling it a black-on-black crime seems to be taking it a little too far. People of any race, creed, or religion, can be obnoxious jerks.
Hende (Ohio)
At this point there is no need to say anything about T.O. Everyone hates him and all he wants is attention. McNabb already has everyone on his side; this story is over.
Sham (wbl)
It's a little devaluing to the phrase "black-on-black crime," when that phrase is really a reference to gang violence and murders within the black community. It's a little devaluing to the people who work in black-on-black-crime organizations to try to reduce this type of crime to then call a war of words between two millionaires a crime.
Jeff (Cleveland)
Alan Grant: I think that Denver is a great fit for him. Seems to me Mike Shanahan, from Jerry Rice to Maurice Clarett, has become a last-chance kind of coach. And the Broncos will be contenders again, so why not add T.O.?
Trevor (Texas): Who do you think Houston should take with the No. 1 pick: Vince or Bush?
Alan Grant: I find it impossible to pass up on Bush. Of course, until they revamp that o-line, it won't really matter. But they can't pass up that talent.
Ben (Boston): What's your take on Shaun Alexander's future in Seattle or elsewhere?
Alan Grant: I think Seattle would be absolutely foolish to let Alexander go. The quarterback is pretty good, but without Alexander toting the rock, he's average and they're average.
Jamie (Richmond, Va.): Out of the your top five picks, who is going to make an immediate impact?
Mel Kiper: That should be Reggie Bush. Running backs will always make the most impact. If you're trying to find the guy who will make the most impact right away, always look to the running backs. Look at Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown from this year. It's the easiest position to transition from college to the pros, and high school to college. So mark down Bush and the other running backs.

Identity Management
Officials said two of the Department of Homeland Security's trusted traveler programs have reached significant enrollment milestones.
On Aug. 26, DHS announced that half a million people have signed up for the Transportation Security Administration's PreCheck direct application program. Additionally, U.S. Customs and Border Protection has enrolled more than 3 million users in its Global Entry, NEXUS and SENTRI trusted traveler programs.
TSA has been steadily expanding the portion of PreCheck that allows travelers to apply directly to TSA instead of through airlines' frequent flier programs or through other federal programs, such as CPB's NEXUS. PreCheck allows pre-approved low-risk travelers to pass through security checkpoints more quickly via dedicated screening lanes without having to remove their shoes, coats or belts, or pull laptops out of their carry-on bags.
TSA's direct application program, which began in December 2013, allows U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents to enroll in the program for $85. Once approved, travelers are assigned a Known Traveler Number and can use the dedicated security lanes at airports if they fly on one of the U.S. carriers that participate in the program.
The program has seen some hiccups as it expands, however. In June, TSA Press Secretary Ross Feinstein said data fields are sometimes mismatched in the information submitted by airlines and travel agents -- for instance, data is entered in the wrong slot -- which prevents the KTN from being transmitted to TSA correctly and keeps travelers from accessing the PreCheck lanes at airports. Feinstein advised travelers to contact airlines or travel agents to correct the data.
The program is available at 118 U.S. airports for participants in frequent flier programs with Air Canada, Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Hawaiian Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, Sun Country Airlines, United Airlines, US Airways and Virgin America.
CBP's Global Entry program, meanwhile, speeds international travelers through U.S. customs checks at U.S. airports via automated kiosks. According to DHS officials, the program has more than 70,000 new applicants each month. Launched in 2008 as a pilot project, Global Entry is now a permanent program with 51 locations in the U.S. and at CBP preclearance stations in Canada. Those locations serve 99 percent of incoming travelers to the U.S., DHS officials said.
The NEXUS program allows accelerated, prescreened processing of travelers into the U.S. from Canada at U.S. ports of entry, while SENTRI does the same on the southern border for travelers from Mexico. Participants in both programs receive KTNs, making them eligible for PreCheck without filing a separate application, DHS officials said.

The Panasonic 3DO is a video game console produced by Panasonic and was released in North America On October 4, 1993, in Japan on March 20, 1994, and in Europe later in 1994. The 3DO games were manufactured by multiple developers who paid a royalty to 3DO for each game that was sold. This ultimately was the downfall of the 3DO, making it a very expensive product.
