MechCom - 3D RTS
It is the year 2100 and Earth is rapidly running out of resources. In response to the resource crisis, the two most powerful corporations, BIOSPHERE and APEX, set off to lead a space expedition. To their amazement they discovered extensive resources on a strange planet far off of even the largest star maps. It contained precious exotic minerals whose energy levels were off the chart. This was earths answer. BIOSPHERE immediately started mining in anticipation of the prosperity and promise that the minerals could have for Earth. However, APEX saw the minerals as a highly lucrative business opportunity and promptly declared ownership of the planet and its vast resources. They ruthlessly engaged BIOSPHERE's forces intent on wiping them out. Only one corporation will make it back to Earth alive. The answer is up to you!
=== Description ===
MechCom is a new fast-paced stable 3D action RTS that is optimized for mobile devices. It's heavily influenced by the popular open-source RTS, Warzone 2100 and Dune (But it is NOT an Android clone). It takes place in the year 2100 when two corporations (BIOSPHERE and APEX) go at it deploying powerful mechs and heavy hardware from the mothership in a classic RTS environment in the hunt for resources. It uses fluid touch controls that are aimed for simplicity and ease of use. Classic old-school resource collection mechanics are favored as well as simple clear graphics. There are a number of customized mechs you can build as well as various structures. There are also a handful of upgrades that you can utilize which can mean the difference between victory and defeat against a clever and challenging AI. Finally there are a large number of maps (zones) to choose from for Custom Games or you can go with a Ranked Game where the computer matches you to your skill level depending on your rank and how many promotion points you have earned to keep you challenged.
=== How To Play ===
Gameplay primarily consists of building individual units and structures on build pads. You build a refinery to harvest minerals and convert them to money. You then use the money to build a broad assortment of unit components, upgrades and an assortment of structures such as an Armory to unlock multiple component upgrades (also costing money) and a turret for example. Once you create your army, you can converge on the map to take control of Beacons where you can deploy more units. Capturing and keeping Beacons is vital in making your way across the map. Engage and eliminate all opponent units and structures to be declared the victor.
=== Game Features ===
• Basic Tutorial.
• Challenging AI.
• Simple 3D graphics.
• 7 Ranks to progress though.
• Simple large touch controls.
• 12 maps set in 3 different landscapes.
• Old-school resources collection system.
• 2 game modes (Ranked Game and Custom Game).
• 16 unique combinations of mechs PLUS UPGRADES!
=== Game Tips ===
• Strongest is not always best.
• Upgrades and key to victory.
• Hover chassis can go over water and works great for scouts.
• Speed is important. Build as fast and as efficiently as you can.
• Capture and keep as many Beacons as you can for the advantage.
• Collect as many minerals as you can before the enemy collects them all.

WAR! Showdown RTS PREMIUM
5 Stars - This game is in one word awesome
5 Stars - Amazing game. Simple yet addicting.
5 Stars - Great game! Fun RTS and should be a must download.
5 Stars - Amazing game, one of the best for Android :)
This is the followup to Pirates! Showdown, the game that PocketGamer called "rather masterful" and Digital Trends named as one of the top 3 Android tablet games!
What SuperGameDroid.com had to say:
"Like a hybrid of Command & Conquer and Great Little War Game, WAR! Showdown gives players all the tactical awesomeness of a real time strategy game without all the muss and fuss of micro managing resources."
Face off against the enemy in thrilling head-to-head battles! Capture factories, bunkers, mortars, and much more to increase your resource supply and strengthen your defenses. Capture your enemy's base to win, but make sure you are also defending your own base! 93 campaign levels across fields, deserts, frozen tundra, and rocky terrain in 4 campaigns, plus an infinite number of randomly generated maps in skirmish mode!
Fast paced RTS gameplay without complicated resource management or cumbersome controls. Units will advance and attack on their own or you can take control and direct them
Infantry units, helicopters, tanks and more. Each has unique weapons or abilities such as the sniper who can attack long range and the grenadier who can toss grenades over walls. Use the right units to win!
Factories, power plants, and even forgotten treasure chests supply you with resources. Turrets and mortars will attack the enemy. Capture satellite dishes to improve your local units attack ability and more!
Upgrade factories to increase resource production. Upgrade turrets to increase their firepower. Upgrade satellite dishes to increase their effect range. Etc.
Will you aggressively capture factories to supply your troops or invest in the factories you have to increase their production? Wage a war with squads of infantry, send a squadron of attack choppers, or play a defensive battle holding your ground and build up your supply chain?
Pursue the enemy across fields, deserts, frozen tundra, and rocky terrain. Once you beat all four campaigns there are still randomly generated levels awaiting in skirmish mode.
Set the game to be as easy or as difficult as you want. Try to beat every level on the extra hard difficulty if you dare!
See every unit, smoke trail, tracer, and explosion in full resolution on every device. Supports full HD on devices with HD displays.
At any time you can speed up or slow down time to play at your own pace. Allow yourself more time to prepare your strategy or speed up your opponent's demise!
Two skirmish modes provide an infinite number of randomly generated maps and allows you to choose what map size you want to play. Use strategy on ever new battlefields!

What do I pack?
Hey-I'm going on Caribbean Princess June 5-12. I'm a little confused about dress on the ship. I know what to wear on formal nights, but are the other days casual or are tshirts/shorts ok? Also...(I'm a teenager) How much money should I plan to bring-for shopping on the islands? Any response would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Re: What do I pack?
Hi Runnergal,
For the casual nights onboard in the dining room, you'll need to pack some nice dress's, or pants with tops, no shorts in the dining room for dinner. Thats fine for breakfast and lunch though.. You can take some nice sun dresses too. As for how much to bring for spending money, that all depends on what things you want to buy, and for how many people.. May-be plan on a hundred or two if you are really into shopping.
Re: What do I pack?
I think we spent about $200.00. We brought cash and a credit card. I was surprised at some of the things people wore on the ship! For casual days...a nice pair of jeans and shirt or sweater is fine. Lots of people wore those jogging suits. I think if it looks nice, that is great. They just don't want torn up faded jeans and t-shirts that should be worn in a gym. ENJOY!
Re: What do I pack?
thanks so much!

This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
Got a new laptop, need to make Windows 8 more like 7.
I can see the appeal, sure, but Windows 8 is just not doing it for me. Freaking apps.
So, what can I do about it? I know there are a few options, StartIsBack and some sorta shell being two, but I don't know which is the best. All I want is to have the normal Start button functions, along with programs not shoving around the desktop. Example: I can't open PDFs in a simple window, it has to be a separate app that only seems to come in full-screen and too-small-to-read sizes. Ugh.
Dodgeball Boy? He's Batman. The Trolls are the Joker. For giggles, I'm Michael Caine. - Crobar
http://i.imgur.com/4mhfj5v.jpg Thanks Cosmonaut!
I have heard startisback works the best, since it runs as a service and not a separated program. Or something like that.
Mystery is the source of all true science.
I use classic shell and I've had no problems.
Pearl Code: 0731 1228 8254 White Code: 0862 2790 1982
Stop use the Win 8 app store. Just download whatever you programs you want normally. Win 8 is just more efficient Win 7
I don't make win8 like 7 or use the apps. I guess I'm just smart enough to adapt. Try class shell if change scares you.
PC is a Console Hardware game, published by Microsoft, which was released in 1995.
Just download a regular PDF reader and associate .pdf files with that.
MacBook Pro with Retina Display | 15.4" 2880x1800 | Core i7-3615QM @ 2.3GHz | 8GB DDR3 1600MHz | GT 650M 1GB GDDR5 | 256GB SSD | OSX 10.8.5 | Windows 8 Pro
If you want Windows 8 to be more like Windows 7, then just use it like Windows 7. Download programs off the internet like always. Windows 8 doesn't force you to use any of the fullscreen apps, so just remove them from the start menu if you don't need them. Configure the start menu to your liking and it'll end up nicer than the traditional start menu bar.

This X10!
The apps aren't essential at all. I've used a few and they can be neat, but not essential.
For example, I can split the screen and have Pandora playing on the right while browsing on the left, in a more fluid way than Win 7. I do the same with Skype, it's really neat.
The official Tsun of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim!
On the start screen type default programs. There's no search box to type in initially. Just start typing and one will appear. Click Default Programs when it appears and then click the set your default programs link.
Change out the apps for desktop programs. I set Windows Media Player, Windows Photo Viewer, and Adobe Reader as default. I prefer to use the Zune software for music since I have a Zune HD and I like the Zune program better than the XBOX Music app.
You might also want to turn off the app switching gesture. It's triggered by swiping in from the left side of the trackpad/touchpad.
Windows key + I , Change PC settings, General, Turn off "When I swipe from the left edge, switch directly to my most recent app."
If you install Classic Shell you can make the OS boot to the desktop after you sign in and disable hot corners so that the charms bar doesn't pop out when you put your pointer at the top right corner of your screen.

bad breath

bad breath
October 10, 2010#1
I have been raw for about two weeks now and have started having bad breath. I know this normal but how long will it last? Also, what can I do to make it go away? Help! This stinks, literally!
October 10, 2010#2
bad breath is detox. How long it will last varies person to person. I'm bad and actually chew gum but I'm guessing someone will have a better answer. I was just getting on here to start a thread asking how I can phase out of gum and not worry about bad breath.
My breath has gotten way better lately but I still want to chew it because it gets gunk out of my teeth after I eat at work.

Putting A Radio Flyer Wagon Back Together
priscillabarringtonJuly 3, 2006
I was directed to this site from a poster on an eBay discussion board. What a great place!
I've refurbished a Radio Flyer wagon and now I'm putting it back together. Does anyone have pictures of or wouldn't mind taking pictures of the handle assembly?
I've gotten that far and for the life of me, I can't figure out where the two bolts and washers left over go! LOL!
It'll work the way I've got it so far, but surely I messed up somewhere if there's hardware left over.
I have one also but need to have washers welded on the axle supports so I can put new tires on it .
even bought new tires from harbor frieght ???
I have a cheap camera but this should be a lot of photos
Here is a link that might be useful: radio flyer pics.

Yankees dynasty[edit]
Anyone out there who cares to explain what does and doesn't belong here? Question: why is it out of place here to comment on Richardson's place in the Yankee dynasty, in some detail? I am not a Yankee fan; hated them in the days of Richardson, actually. I would never praise Richardson motivated by being his fan. But I have an attachment to answering the "so what?" question, and I think that is a fundamental reason why people read encyclopedias. Why did Richardson matter? in other words. You can't tell why he mattered by quoting his stats, not that much. You have to put him IN CONTEXT to tell his story. It is not controversial that he was a critical defensive player on the best baseball team of his era, or that countless times it was the Yankee infield defense that won the day. Nor is it controversial that he had the tendency to shine offensively, when it counted most, and tended to lift his team even when Mantle and Maris weren't lifting it by themselves. Richardson probably wasn't any better than some of the other star infielders of his day, like Maury Wills or Dick Groat or Bill Mazeroski. BUT HISTORY/CHANCE PUT HIM IN A PLACE WHERE HE HAD A GREATER EFFECT THAN THEY DID. By a mile. Why do a good number of you seem to think that saying so is "unencyclopedic?" Or that it might be okay to say that in the article on the Yankees, but not on Richardson?
Thanks in advance for any response. Moabalan.
Another version of the same question: I edited this article to say the defense Richardson, Kubek and Boyer contributed was critical to Yankee success (that part was left in). I said that it was one of about five factors making the Yanks better than the rest. There was a great offense, great pitching, both starters and relievers, and a great manager in Stengel. When you added the way those three infielders played defense, you got a World Series ring about every other year for the full span of Richardson's time with the team. Is there a controversial point in that? If not, why shouldn't an encyclopedia article talk about an individual's contribution to history?
My edit was removed with a note that such observations just might fit in the article on the Yankees, but not here. The implication was that it was either factually questionable or not pertinent to what encyclopedia readers want to read. Are we throwing the baby out with the bathwater here, because we're so cautious? This is not original research. It was the common knowledge of well-informed baseball fans at the time.
- Bill James wrote several essays and articles to debunk the myth that the Yaknees of the early 1960s were a great all-around team. Says he (and I tend to agree) the pitching was Whitey Ford and one-season guest stars, the bench was thin, and beyond lots and lots of home runs (admittedly a nice start), the offense wasn't all that noteworthy. Their lineup was usually five "cleanup" hitters and three glovemen. In retrospect, the very solid defensive infield was one of their real strengths. WHPratt (talk) 17:26, 11 January 2010 (UTC)
Information verified[edit]
I removed the tag asking that information in this article be verified. I verified it all with baseball-reference.com, and made a few minor corrections; I believe that it is now completely accurate. I also added one paragraph and a couple of footnotes.Markjoseph125 03:01, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
It is a mistake to say that Bobby Richardson was a poor offensive player. Other pitchers tried desperately to keep him off the bases because batting after him were Roger Maris, Mickey Mantle, Yogi Berra, Elston Howard, and other all-stars. Richardson came through time and time again in the clutch. He was to the Yankees of the late 50s and early 60s what Phil Rizzuto had been a decade and more earlier: their sparkplug. He was respected by his team-mates for his leadership qualities. He was particularly loved by Mickey Mantle because the Mick knew that, even though he had more pure talent, Richardson was the better man. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 23:33, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Well, I was a Yankee fan and I liked Mantle and Berra and Maris and Ford and Howard etc., but Bobby was my favourite. Of course, much of his success depended on being a Yankee in that era. So he was fortunate. At least moderate skill, great attitude with flashes of brilliance...often just at the right time. Even if he had never done anything else, the catch to win the series is one of the great moments in baseball (for me at least). What is there not to like about Bobby Richardson ??

Unfortunately, because of what the Tories euphemistically call a "technical hitch", the link users to a hard core pornography site.

Duke Vin: 'Soundman' who brought sound systems to Britain
Wednesday 21 November 2012
In 1955 Vincent "Duke Vin" Forbes launched the first Jamaican-style sound system on the British public; it was the prototype of the enormous sets of speakers on display each year at the Notting Hill carnival. "When I came here the people was backward – them didn't know what a sound system was," said Vin, who enjoyed a semi-mythological status in Britain's West Indian community.

Product description
Moist von Lipwig is a con artist and a fraud and a man faced with a life choice: be hanged, or put Ankh-Morpork's ailing postal service back on its feet. It was a tough decision. But he's got to see that the mail gets through, come rain, hail, sleet, dogs, the Post Office Workers Friendly and Benevolent Society, the evil chairman of the Grand Trunk Semaphore Company, and a midnight killer. Getting a date with Adora Bell Dearheart would be nice, too. Maybe it'll take a criminal to succeed where honest men have failed, or maybe it's a death sentence either way. Or perhaps there's a shot at redemption in the mad world of the mail, waiting for a man who's prepared to push the envelope...

Advocate says there was a miscarriage of justice
A member of the Juvenile Justice Board, Mysore district, has strongly advocated the release of one of Veerappan's alleged associates serving a life sentence in the Mysore Central Prison on the grounds that there was "miscarriage of justice."
Speaking to The Hindu, P.P. Baburaj, who is also an advocate and director of the People's Legal Forum, said the case pertains to 34-year-old Anburaj, who was taken into custody in 1997, tried by a fast-track court in Chamarajanagar and sentenced to life imprisonment.
Mr. Baburaj said it now transpired that Anburaj was only 17 years old at the time of his arrest and hence was a juvenile. Hence, as per the provisions of the Juvenile Justice Act, he should have been tried by the Juvenile Justice Board and not in a regular court, he added. Had Anburaj been tried as a juvenile, the maximum sentence would have been only three years in an observation home, said Mr. Baburaj, adding that he would approach the higher court to seek redressal.
Explaining the background of the case, Mr. Baburaj said Anburaj's arrest followed a case filed by Hanur police in 2001 (SC 72/2004) in which Veerappan was the main accused (A1) and his associates Sethukuli Govindan and Meesekara Madaiah were the second and third accused respectively. Anburaj was the sixth accused in the case.
"A school dropout, Anburaj had studied till sixth standard at Puthukad village in Andiyur of Bhavani taluk in Tamil Nadu. He was rearing sheep in the forest when he was picked up, along with his brothers, by Veerappan and moved from one forest to another to carry ration for him. Around the same time, Anburaj's parents lodged a missing complaint at the Andiyur police station in Tamil Nadu and received an acknowledgement. After six months, the brigand released them on the Sultan Bathery Road near Gundlupet. They were in Bandipur forest when released, and were taken into custody by the police, tried in court as Veerappan's associates," said Mr. Baburaj.
"I recently met Anburaj in jail and discovered that he was only 17 years and two months old when he was taken into custody," said Mr. Baburaj.
In pursuance of the case, Mr. Baburaj sought details of Anburaj's date of birth certificate from the school where he studied, which proved that Anburaj was born on May 6, 1980 and was a minor at the time of his arrest (July 12, 1997). Hence, he had to be treated as a juvenile.
"But the police never considered this aspect, and recorded his age as 19 and tried him as an adult," Mr. Baburaj said.

|Marvel Entertainment Group, Inc.
Star Comics was an imprint of Marvel Comics that began in 1984 and continued to publish comic books until 1991. Titles published by the imprint were aimed at child readers and were often adaptations of children's television series, animated series or toys. Several of the original titles consciously emulated the house writing and visual style of then recently defunct Harvey Comics titles such as Richie Rich.
Previously Marvel Comics never had a successful children's line.[1] Before the existence of the Star imprint, Marvel had previously released several miniseries based on licensed toy and cartoon properties, such as the Smurfs and the Starriors. Existing ongoing series, based on other licensed toylines such as G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero and Transformers, remained under the Marvel banner.
In the early 1980s, Marvel Comics was in talks with Harvey Comics to take over publishing some of their characters. Harvey editor Sid Jacobson along with the other Harvey staff were interviewed by Mike Hobson, Marvel group vice-president of publishing (de facto publisher). As part of the process Jacobson created a few new characters which were well received by Hobson. The new creations sealed the deal for Hobson. Jim Shooter thus appointed editor Tom DeFalco as executive editor to coordinate editorially with the Harvey staff. The Harvey staff was hired by Marvel. On the day Marvel was to take over Harvey publications, Harvey Comics pulled out do to the Harvey brothers disagreement over the deal. Harvey would stop publishing their comics in 1982.[1]
The industry standard of an age stepladder of readers moving from the children's publishers Gold Key Comics (Disney and Looney Tunes licensee) and Harvey to Archie Comics then on to Marvel and DC and finally to independents. With Gold Key Comics' children's licenses gone and Harvey out of business, Marvel staff decided to continue the process and fill that step on the reading ladder. With the Harvey character publishing plan was reevaluated and changed such that the new line of all age comics would be published under a different imprint name than Marvel.[1]
Star Comics was the name selected early on in the revamp of the publishing plan. The first comic published was the first issue of a three issue movie adaptation, The Muppets Take Manhattan, in July 1984 with a stand date of November 1984.[1]
The regular line did not appear on the stands until five months later and were launched over a two-month period. Fraggle Rock, Heathcliff, Planet Terry and Strawberry Shortcake were released in the first month while The Ewoks, Get Along Gang, Muppet Babbies, Royal Roy and Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham followed in the second month. Top Dog and Wally the Wizard were also early comic titles.[1] Writers and artists for Star Comics included Warren Kremer, Howie Post, Marie Severin, Jon D'Agostino, Angelo DeCesare, Carlos Garzon, Nate Butler, Jacqueline Roettcher, Roberta Edelman, and Bob Bolling. Two former Spider-Man artists were also contributors: Steve Ditko, who provided pencil artwork for Chuck Norris: Karate Kommandos, and John Romita who did pencil artwork for Star Wars: Droids.
In late 1985 Harvey Comics sued Star Comics for copyright infringement, claiming that Royal Roy was a blatant copy of Richie Rich.[2] Thus the title was canceled after six issues due to this similarity.[1]
Marvel eventually dissolved the Star imprint but absorbed several Star titles under the main Marvel banner such as Care Bears and continued to license new properties, such as The Pirates of Dark Water.
Updated versions of Wally the Wizard, Planet Terry, Top Dog and Royal Roy appeared in the X-Babies miniseries published in late 2009.

Trade Paperback
In 2008, Ryan Flavelle, a reservist in the Canadian Army and a student at the University of Calgary, volunteered to serve in Afghanistan. For seven months, twenty-four-year-old Flavelle, a signaller attached to the Princess Patricia''s Canadian Light Infantry, endured the extreme heat, the long hours and the occasional absurdity of life as a Canadian soldier in this new war so far from home. Flavelle spent much of his time at a Canadian Forward Operating Base (FOB), living among his fellow soldiers and occasionally going outside the wire. For one seven-day period, Flavelle went into Taliban country, always walking in the footsteps of the man ahead of him, meeting Afghans and watching behind every mud wall for a sign of an enemy combatant. The Patrol is a gritty, boots-on-the-ground memoir of a soldier''s experience in the Canadian Forces in the 21st century. It is about why we fight, why men and women choose such a dangerous and demanding job, and what their lives are like when they find themselves back in our ordinary world.

by Ryan Flavelle
"Brings home powerfully the experience of an ordinary soldier— except that this one writes much better than most."
"The power of The Patrol is Flavelle's ability to allow his experiences to be expressed without romanticizing, apologizing, or making himself into either a warrior or a hero. . . . The Patrol reads as the truth—one that all of us should learn."
"Flavelle's greatest accomplishment with The Patrol is to give a voice to the individual soldier."
