The new Abby Abernathy is a good girl. She doesn't drink or swear, and she has the appropriate number of cardigans in her wardrobe. Abby believes she has enough distance from the darkness of her past, but when she arrives at college with her best friend, her path to a new beginning is quickly challenged by Eastern University's Walking One-Night Stand.
Travis Maddox, lean, cut, and covered in tattoos, is exactly what Abby wants—and needs—to avoid. He spends his nights winning money in a floating fight ring, and his days as the ultimate college campus charmer. Intrigued by Abby's resistance to his appeal, Travis tricks her into his daily life with a simple bet. If he loses, he must remain abstinent for a month. If Abby loses, she must live in Travis's apartment for the same amount of time. Either way, Travis has no idea that he has met his match.

Millstream Brewing Co.
Editor's Review
If you've spent the day bustling from shop to shop or exploring the scenic back roads around Amana, an afternoon beer at the Millstream Brewing Company is a perfect way to wind up the day. This small, cozy shop in Amana offers free samples (two per person) to suit every taste. The Iowa Pale Ale is hoppy and strong, while the Windmill Wheat is lighter and golden. You can also sample the brewery's old-fashioned root beer and black cherry and cream sodas. Millstream opened in 1985, changed hands in 2000, and benefited from the soaring interest in craft beer during the past 10 years. The brewery's beers are made on-site, and visitors can peek through large windows to glimpse the fermentation vats and the bottling operation. While not as exciting as a true brewery tour, it is fun to drink beer at its source. The building isn't much to look at inside. A small shop sells beer and beer-related merchandise, including mugs, steins and T-shirts; another small room contains plastic tables and a flat-screen TV for relaxing with a full glass. Weather permitting, it's much nicer to enjoy your beverage on the brick patio or deck in the outdoor beer garden.

- people in the U.S. have this name View Lennis King on WhitePages
Meaning & Origins
English and Scottish: nickname from Middle English king, Old English cyning 'king' (originally merely a tribal leader, from Old English cyn(n) 'tribe', 'race' + the Germanic suffix -ing). The word was already used as a byname before the Norman Conquest, and the nickname was common in the Middle Ages, being used to refer to someone who conducted himself in a kingly manner, or one who had played the part of a king in a pageant, or one who had won the title in a tournament. In other cases it may actually have referred to someone who served in the king's household. The American surname has absorbed several European cognates and equivalents with the same meaning, for example German König (see Koenig), Swiss German Küng, French Leroy. It is also found as an Ashkenazic Jewish surname, of ornamental origin.

Scott might not appreciate that you leaked his emails to the public.
But on the other hand, I appreciate the openness, transparency, integrity and having and adhering to a policy.
Some websites value hype, page views, partners, connections and collaborations. Other sites value honesty, openness, transparency, truthfulness.
Some accept bribes, others refuse to be corrupt.

I find it a bit tasteless as well, but hey, at least it's honest. Also, I'm genuinely curious, is there any law that prohibits doing that? I mean, he was the intended recipient, after all. Or the other way round, is giving kickbacks like that illegal?
Technically this is a personal blog, at least partly. Hence why there are things like beer photos that pop out every now and then.

You know, I hate it when people only get part of the story...
If you would have cared to read the rest of the tweet Mark said he was "taking the Ubuntus[sic] communities with him to Nirvana...". I assume "Nirvana" refers to Apple, though I suppose he could be referring to the news of the reunion of eponymous early 90's band after the reappearance of Kurt Cobain (damn, that was an amazing prank he pulled...full props to him).
I don't see why it should be illegal. That wasn't my point.
It just doesn't seem ok to me to publish private communication.
BTW, I'm not defending this Soreau guy here.
IMHO the best way to handle things would have been to stop
communicating with this guy and filter the mails to the trash bin.
I _could_ only speculate on why Michael chose to post instead.
Again, why should it be illegal? He does not belong to the public sector, I guess.
Obviously, not anything that's legal should be done right away...
I wish more journalist websites would publicly name and shame people who approached them with dubious and misleading things like this.
I see several problems with your suggestion,
1. if he ever would have posted a news about this fork that sounds somewhat positive, and then someone would have leaked this email, even soureou could have done it under some strange circumstances, it would look like he would be corrupt or something.
2. if every journalist would act like you propose, what would people learn out of that, just write to 20 news-sites or other press 19 will not tell about it but 1 will go for it, and they reach their goal. So what would they learn, if you dont do it, you must be stupid.
I dont understand why some people are so defendish over him, last time I answered to him on this side, suddenly I got attacked by one guy for calling him maybe in danger of becoming a psychopath, instead of him doing this bad stuff.
(he even after telling me calling him psychopath, "a piece of shit" and something else)
I get that that was maybe not the most clever move I did, still its a small thing against somebody lieing around and try to "bribe" or pay somebody for such stuff, and insulting other people, as some coworkers said he even tried to get one of them fired, that with his insults could fall into mobbing. But hey defend him because somebody says something negative about his behaviour.
Thats btw also a part of mobbing somebody, you give them the feeling that they self are the cause and deserve to get mobbed.
But to be fair the complains of calling him to be in dangeour did not come from him but someobody else, at least it was another account, so I assume it was somebody else, maybe a fanboy or something like that, maybe he knows him, if so it also fits the scheme of mobbing that most of the time a group mobs somebody else not one person alone.
I dont want to make that bigger than it is, I dont work with him or others so it does not hurt me much, but you should think twice who you try to defend with what reasons and who you attack.
If you all would at least attack soreou AND micheal for doing that in the same post, thats your oppinion and thats allowed. But defend sareaou (sorry dont care so much to look the exact name up) and attack micheal I cant understand.
Just say at least, maraou did something very stupid, but I think you should not do something stupid in response to that (I dont think its stupid) but if you turn around who is the initial problem causer and who reacts maybe wrong to a problem it really sucks.
Last edited by blackiwid; 04-01-2013 at 06:28 PM.
That is assuming soreau was not in on it.
Don't get me wrong, I am not saying I think this is fake. It seems plausible, if not likely true. But that is exactly the problem: plausible pranks are the best ones because people are more likely to fall for them.
Whatever the case, I have a strict policy of not believing anything I read on April 1st. It is easy enough to wait a day.
did you ever get pranked with 2 prank-news on one site? I do normaly that, if I dont have found a fake news on the site on this day, I am very sceptical, but if I found one, I pretty much belive there is no other prank, did never happen that I saw two pranks on one site.
And another thing, there was some how do you say that broken porcelan with the split of the wayland project and it is only a few days ago that that happend, so I dont think one of the sites would want to make such jokes about it.
And another thing, you cant just make wrong accusations to people as a joke, because some people maybe only read that accusation and dont come to the site again, or some find the news on search page later and dont get that it was a joke.
Especialy if its not totaly obvious ("good ones, that are not obvious"), you cant do that.
So I am 100% shure thats not a fake news.

INCLINE VILLAGE, Nev. - As a (private) pilot I recently demonstrated a stall to a flight instructor as part of my biennial flight review. Let me explain.
An airplane needs thrust and lift in order to fly. The thrust is provided by the engine and the lift is provided by constant and undisturbed air flow pressure over and under the surface of the wings. Once this constant air flow is disturbed, the plane may stall - it may fail to stay aloft.
Several reasons for the air flow disturbance are ice accumulating on the wings or perhaps the wings exceeding their critical angle of attack - basically this means the plane has ascended or descended at an angle that prevents the air from flowing smoothly around the wings.
So why did I begin my article with an explanation, albeit very elementary, of aircraft aerodynamics?
Lake Tahoe is very sick. It is under attack by pollution from vehicles (exhaust emissions, oil, windshield wiper fluid) and runoff from development; the more roofs, yards, gardens and impervious surfaces such as driveways and pavement we build the less natural surface area these pollutants (fine particles, fertilizer, pesticides and chemicals) to filter through the soil.
As a result, the lake needs a champion that can provide steadfast, reliable stewardship in support of restoration, and, also very importantly, legal protection.
Over the years, the League to Save Lake Tahoe has provided such stewardship and legal care, but its recent mission (commitment) is to avoid litigation in an effort to help communities move forward.
This sense of community and collaboration is very commendable, but it won't support the small towns and villages around the lake that have to deal directly with developers who may present plans not in scale with that of the surrounding neighborhood.
Recently, the Friends of West Shore had to defend their town, with the help of the public interest (environmental) law firm Earthjustice, against the Homewood Mountain Ski Area Master Plan (owned by JMA Ventures).
Judge Shubb ruling over the case halted JMA's plans to begin development and made the following comments: The EIR-EIS (environmental impact report/study) misleads the public by suggesting that (ski lift) ticket sales revenue is the only relevant factor in assessing the financial viability of Homewood..."
Judge Shubb also ruled that no construction can begin until a "legally adequate" EIR-EIS that considers a scaled-down project had been prepared and circulated.
Ron Grassi, a spokesman for the Sierra Club, made the following comments after the ruling: "The judge agreed that the developer provided an incomplete financial picture of a smaller-sized and less harmful project, so that it was never given a fair chance. A multi-million dollar development doesn't have to be huge to be successful."
The Sierra Club and Friends of the West Shore referred to the project as "a wall-to-wall mass of buildings that climb 77 feet up the face of the Homewood ski slope" that doesn't fit with the community, and doesn't protect the lake.
With that said, can you blame Homewood for wanting to protect their community? No one wants to travel down the tedious, time and energy consuming litigious path. But it would also be helpful if the interests that want to invest in small towns like Homewood did so with the most transparent plans and intentions.
While I hope the League will always exist to provide much needed stewardship for the lake, I hope this will not be their only commitment going forward.
What would benefit Lake Tahoe the most is proactive attention and care (addressing the forces that may potentially contribute to the mess) instead of a reactive mode (cleaning up after the mess).
Granted, the League has been criticized for their previous suits, but it should not cease and desist all opportunities to (legally) protect the lake and its communities. The League is funded by a wide range of supporters and is supposed to be a broad voice for the lake.
It appears now that local communities may have to resort to their own devises and expend much personal time, energy and money in the event of future out-of-scale projects like Homewood. Sure people love and want to protect their communities, but it is an incredible effort to take on a developer which presumably the League is adequately funded and experienced to handle.
So I ask the League: "If you were a citizen of Homewood and felt the ski resort development plans were not in line with your vision for the town, what would you do?"

With Michael Bourn, the Cleveland Indians take on a new identity
Blog Entry:
February 12, 2013 10:39 AM | Author: KEVIN KLEPS
How did this happen?
How did the Cleveland Indians — who had a payroll barely above $49 million in 2011 — wind up signing two of the top free agents on the market to four-year contracts worth a total of at least $104 million?
Outfielder Michael Bourn, an All-Star in two of the last three seasons,
agreed to a four-year, $48 million contract
with the Tribe on Monday night.
If the contract options on Bourn and Nick Swisher vest for 2017, the Indians will have shelled out a combined $130 million for five years on a pair of free-agent outfielders.
So much for the belief that no worthwhile free agents want to play in Cleveland.
There are many reasons the Indians were able to remake their lineup this offseason — one being a lack of big-league-ready prospects forced their hands — but we'll focus on four of the biggest.
1. Television money:
The Tribe's sale of SportsTime Ohio to Fox Sports in December was worth a reported $230 million. The deal also will net the Indians an estimated $400 million in rights fees over the next 10 years.
it's not Dodgers money
, but it's certainly enough for the Dolans to push the Indians' payroll above $80 million for the first time since 2009.
2. Thanks, CBA:
Baseball's collective bargaining agreement now stipulates that a player who receives a qualifying offer from his former team will cost the team that signs him a first-round draft pick — as long as it is outside the top 10. This was huge for the Indians, whose No. 5 overall selection in 2013 was protected when they signed Swisher and Bourn.
The Swisher signing cost the Tribe their second-round selection, and Bourn's contract, once finalized, will only result in the Indians losing a pick between the second and third rounds.
The Mets, another team interested in Bourn, have the 11th overall pick in June, and
thus were hesitant
to spend that, plus at least $48 million, on Bourn.
The Indians, even after two marquee free-agent signings, still have their first- and third-round picks this year.
3. So long, Pronk:
As I wrote 12 days ago
, the Indians ridded themselves of their four largest salaries from 2012. Travis Hafner (who made $13 million last season), Grady Sizemore ($5 million), Derek Lowe ($5 million from the Indians, and $10 million from the Braves) and Shin-Soo Choo ($4.9 million) had their contracts run out or, in the case of Choo, were traded. That's $27.9 million off the books — $9.9 million more than the 2013 salaries of Swisher ($11 million) and Bourn ($7 million).
4. The Francona effect:
Terry Francona's hiring as manager can't be underestimated.
With two World Series championships and five seasons with 95 wins or more in eight years with the Red Sox, Francona brings immediate credibility to the Indians' clubhouse.
You also have to wonder if his surprise hiring last October was in part because he was told the Indians were going to spend big this offseason. But even Francona might not have imagined this.
Maybe the Indians will get really crazy and spend more of their TV money on a starting pitcher.
Kyle Lohse, anyone?
This and that
Jim Davison, the curator of The Baseball Heritage Museum, said insurance adjusters are still taking inventory of the
damage done by a busted pipe
at the Colonial Arcade location. Davison hopes everything will be counted by the end of the week, and he can begin boxing up the memorabilia on the walls of the former home to various treasures from Major League Baseball and the Negro Leagues, along with broadcasting artifacts. The museum's future home hasn't been determined.
The Cavaliers will host their 14th annual career fair prior to their game against the Hornets on Feb. 20. Attendees can meet with professionals in such fields as public relations, journalism, broadcasting, advertising, marketing, sales, business development, finance and sports medicine.

White Sox, Twins open four-game division clash
Noesi, Hughes look to hit their stride on Thursday night at Target Field
When the White Sox last faced the Twins in June, the South Siders were swept away in four games during a rough eight-game losing streak. Both clubs will clash once again on Thursday night in the opener of another four-game meeting at Target Field, with Chicago turning an eye towards vaulting itself back into the division race.
The matchup will feature a pair of up-and-down pitchers in the Twins' Phil Hughes and the White Sox Hector Noesi.
Hughes claims a string of unimpressive performances dating back to his last time pitching against the White Sox, a winning effort despite allowing five runs over five innings. Across that start and the five outings since, the right-hander has posted a 6.34 ERA and seen his season ERA rise from 3.09 to 4.06.
Hughes' last time on the hill was similarly poor, as he gave up five runs on 11 hits over seven innings against the Rays on Saturday.
"I knew right off the bat that I didn't have much," Hughes said. "I battled as best I could. I didn't have really much to work with."
"I'll continue to try to make adjustments out there and not get too hard-headed out there with what I feel most comfortable with."
Noesi has been little better in July, posting a 5.64 ERA and walking 14 batters over his last four outings. He allowed four runs over seven innings in his last start vs. the Twins, and he received a no-decision.
With the South Siders now sitting in fourth place in the American League Central and playing the role of an inconsistent team as opposed to a contending one, questions regarding how the team plans to address the upcoming non-waiver Trade Deadline -- perhaps as sellers -- are already beginning to arise.
"[The players] are aware of it," manager Robin Ventura said of the trade rumors. "They're aware of what's going on. You see other guys getting traded from other teams, so you're aware of it. So whether you're consciously thinking about it or subconsciously, it's there for everybody whose name has been brought up or popped up somewhere."
White Sox: Viciedo misses finale with Royals
Dayan Viciedo wound up a late scratch from Wednesday's starting lineup due to tightness in his hamstring. Outfielder Moises Sierra got the starting nod in his absence.
Viciedo's status for Thursday's tilt with the Twins is uncertain. The 25-year-old corner outfielder has hit .236 with 12 homers and 19 doubles in his third full season with Chicago.
Twins: Gibson could return Saturday
Kyle Gibson was forced to miss his regularly scheduled start on Wednesday after dealing with back stiffness. But with the right-hander already beginning to feel less discomfort, the Twins believe that he could pitch as early as Saturday.
With lefty Kris Johnson optioned down to the Minors after Monday's start, Gibson (8-8, 4.19 ERA) would have an open spot to fill in the rotation as long as the injury improves over the next couple of days.
"We're hoping Saturday," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "That's our plan for him to start Saturday, but that's only if it works out. We'll go day to day with him until that day comes up. Friday will be a big day for us for him to run around a little bit and tell us."
Worth noting
• The White Sox are 16-9 when Jose Abreu hits a home run and 4-0 when he turns in a multi-homer performance. Abreu has gone yard 29 times in 87 games this year.
• Minnesota right-hander Ricky Nolasco, who has been sidelined since July 6 after straining his pitching elbow, has been taking part in long toss and is set to throw a bullpen session on Sunday. The team has not determined whether Nolasco will go on a rehab assignment.

I needed a rug FAST that was big enough for my dining room, and was hesitant to order one online because I wasn't sure it would get there when I needed it. I was ordering it Monday night (around 11:30pm) and needed it before dinner on Thursday. The estimated delivery date was Thursday, so I took a chance. It arrived in time, and I was amazed at how quickly it was at my house. When I rolled out the rug, everyone in my house was in love with it immediately. It is very elegant looking and the colors are really lovely together. It is very low pile/flat woven so it was perfect for my dining room. Maybe not the cushy rug you're looking for for a living room or family room, but absolutely perfect for a place food will be frequently spilled and vacuumed up. It survived several dinners of 10 people during the holidays and still looks great. I would highly recommend this rug, particularly for a dining room.
I ordered this rug really hoping it would be more on the indoor range of the indoor/outdoor rug range. It is not, in my opinon. I know many people have purchased this rug and loved it for an indoor rug, but for me, it was much to thin. I didn't want a big fluffy rug, but I did want something soft on my feet. This was not. If this rug was purchased as an outdoor only then I think it would be WONDERFUL!
Great rug, be sure to get the non-skid padding to go underneath it or it will not stay in place at all!
At the time I bought this there were no reviews. I am a big believer in reviews so that made me nervous. I took a chance and boy am I glad I did! The rug isn't too busy and the colors are bright enough to pop, but not overpower the room. My sofa is expresso (dark brown) so the colors of this rug worked very well. I was able to accent with the blue and gold colors. It's a very tightly woven rug so if you're looking for something super soft and plush this probably isn't for you. I was thrown by outdoor/indoor, but I assume that's the difference between super plush and not. I will say it was rather difficult to get the sides to lay flat. I put heavy boxes on the sides for over a week and that helped, but not totally. Hopefully in time this will remedy itself. Very happy I decided to purchase this rug even though it didn't have any reviews. I have since seen reviews and people were just as pleased as I was!
I ordered the rug on Saturday and received it the following Thursday. I originally ordered this rug from Home Decorators on sale, but I found it on overstock cheaper than Home Decorators sale price.
Rug looks just like the photo, wears well.
I was looking for sisal, but this caught my eye. It really dresses up my patio without being overwhelming. The colors are nice, muted. light gray, dark gray (not blue) gold, brown. The rug lays flat and sweeps off nicely.
I didn't really like this rug and I'm sending it back, color isn't right
Rug was beautiful but I sent it back because the internet description said to clean it spray it with a hose and the label on the rug when it arrived said to have it professionally cleaned.
Love the colors, patter/design! Very pleased with purchase.

I love the lock of these shades and they are excellent in every way EXCEPT the site description left out the fact that the stationary panel is on the left and the panels move left to right. Since I need the opposite, it is going to take some adjustment to get the panels to where I need them.
I love the look of these blinds, but they were very hard to put up, the instructions were not great. A plastic piece actually broke while trying to get them up, my husband was able to make it work though. Other than that I am pretty happy with them..
I bought this product because in the picture it looks beautiful. The first shipment was damaged so I complained and received the second one promptly. Great overstock service, but the second product also had some scratches on them but I was not going to return the second one as well. So my husband started to put up the bamboo screen blinds and notice the cheap plastic hardware which is definitively not going to last very long and then when the whole thing was put together the panels do not slide very smoothly. Also one panel is longer then the rest of the three panels. It looks very cheap and fragile. Very very disappointed.:(
Shipping was fast! Directions to assemble this are horrible!!! It's worth figuring out though because it's very nice. Is a bit see through.
I ordered the dark Mahogany, I received the natural so I had to return it. The Mahogany is out of stock so I ordered these elsewhere. I'm posting due to people stating the instructions are confusing and useless. After my new shipment of the exact type of blinds I took a picture of the instructions I received that will show you how to REVERSE the blinds to open the other direction. Unsure if these instructions are the same, I hope it helps.
Easy assembly and they make my sliding glass window stand out!
I loved these, but it just did not fit my window space...wish they had--they look very nice! Would have been perfect if they had fit the length of my window space. I might have adjusted them...but I did not know how.
Love these and they look great, very easy to put it up- It didn't take a rocket scientist! The only issue I had was the bamboo wand fell off the metal, but nothing a little Gorilla glue couldn't fix! THEY ARE PERFECT AND I LOVE THEM AND THEY LOOK GREAT! alot of people complained in their reviews but I have none!
OMG ... While they look Fab.. Thank goodness I am an Engineer, that is what is takes to hang these units .. here is a hint .. D panel slides 1st ..1/2 way on rear track ( Rear is closest to window frame ) .. then add C panel 1/2 way .. now push D and C so C on track 1/2 mway ... now add B panel to 1/2 on track .. add A Look at pickups at top of panel where white wheel are . Also you may want to tear out locking hanger to track and install bolts and wing nuts. They do look Fab though.
This is our second set of these sliding bamboo blinds. The other set lasted 8-years! They are durable and add a whole new dimension to our kitchen walk out. They are always a conversation piece when people come over that have never visited our house. They are not 100% private; in the evening you can see shadow and bodies moving when it is dark outside and lights are on inside.

WerFault.exe is a process handling Windows Problem Reporting feature. Sometimes it may drive you crazy because it can lock your files, while you (or a KDE app) want to rename or remove. For me this was the case with files of KMail's MailDir storage.
If you're developer, you'll most obviously encounter many crashes with your developed applications. On any crash, annoying popup appears and says "This program has stopped responding" they it says something about Windows will try to find a solution and fix it. Of course this is a joke, so it is good to disable Windows Problem Reporting. On Vista: open the Control Panel, open the Problem Reports & Solutions applet, wnder the Advanced option you can disable problem reporting. For XP or Windows 2003, read here.
Note: You can use the Platform kcm instead which can either be accessed from KDE systemsettings or viakcmshell4 platform
You might have to install the windows integration package.
KDE on Windows provides a (kded) plugin for automatic generation of Start Menu entries for KDE applications. If for whatever reason you want to disable it:
You may need to stop (or kill) all the KDE processes in order to use the new setting. It is planned to add appropriate setting on the forthcoming KDE's "Integration" system settings page.
Note: We recommend that you use instead:kdeinit4 --terminate
This should work in nearly all cases.
While it is easy to close applications as these have windows and have close buttons, there are (quite frequent) cases when you have to kill invisible "system" KDE processes. The two most important reasons are:
You can use taskkill command, which has quite complicated arguments. So you can define a kdekill command. Paste the following lines to a file like {KDEDIR}/bin/kdekill.bat:
@echo off
taskkill /T /F /fi "imagename eq klauncher*"
taskkill /T /fi "imagename eq dbus-daemon*"
taskkill /T /fi "imagename eq kde*"
taskkill /T /fi "imagename eq kded*"
taskkill /T /fi "imagename eq kioslave*"
taskkill /T /fi "imagename eq knotify*"
taskkill /T /fi "imagename eq korgac*"
taskkill /fi "imagename eq kded*"
taskkill /T /F /fi "imagename eq kded*"
Then you can just type kdekill, to get result like:
SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to process with PID 832, child of PID 2372. SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to process with PID 2692, child of PID 2580. SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to process with PID 2684, child of PID 480. SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to process with PID 480, child of PID 2580. SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to process with PID 2692, child of PID 2580.
Feel free to extend it for your specific needs.
Note 1: klauncher sometimes refuses to terminate...
Note 2: we hope to address the above issues with KUniqueApplication and dbus-daemon in a cleaner and more automated way...
Note: this bug has been fixed
Yet KDE can't launch .exe files on Windows. This can be temporary fixed by editing mimetypes for KDE.
Run in console window:
kcmshell4 filetypes
The SystemSettings module will appear. Find the filetype application/x-ms-dos-executable
On the right in the Applications priority list there're no applications. Press the add button and in the dialog that pops up just enter
cmd.exe /c
No need to "Open in terminal". Select the cmd.exe inthe list of Application priority and chose "Edit" to check that everything is set up correctly. Go to "Application" tab and be sure to have "cmd.exe" in the "Name" field (actually, the name could be any of your taste) and "cmd.exe /c" in the "Command" field. Confirm everything and let the application update the mimetypes. If kcmshell4 crashes on first update of mimetypes - it's ok. It always crashes after adding first application.
Now, everything should work without restart. The same settings could be applied to the application/x-win-lnk to make windows link files be executable. Note that this makes link files being interpreted as common executable, so links to folders and to non-executable files will behave improperly.

Thanks bridgman.
Do you have any information about Richland? I realise that you can't confirm or deny the release date I quoted if it hasn't been announced by AMD marketing, but can at least re-share what they _have_ said so far? And maybe also tell us if AMD's open-source driver team are working internally on as yet unreleased driver code for Richland?

Drinky Crow Pilot airs again Jan. 1 | |
Written by Eric Reynolds | Filed under Tony Millionaire, television | 19 Dec 2007 8:04 AM |
The Drinky Crow Show pilot is re-running on Jan. 1 at 11:15pm on the Cartoon Network. Not New Year's Eve but the night after. If you missed it the first time around, don't let that happen again, it's a riot. And looks so much better on the boob tube than the clips you've possibly seen on YouTube. Help us boost those ratings and ensure that the CN orders a slew of new episodes for 2008!
In the meantime, Drinky Crow Christmas!

The CSB looks at all areas of chemical accidents, including physical causes such as equipment failure as well as inadequacies in regulations and industry standards.
The US Chemical Safety Board has deployed an investigative team to the scene of a fire and explosion that occurred last Thursday at the Williams olefins plant in Geismar, Louisiana.
Zachary C. Green, 29, and Scott Thrower, 47, died during the Thursday morning incident, while 77 others were injured.
More than 800 people were at the plant when the explosion happened.
The investigative team will be led by Don Holmstrom, director of the CSB's Western Regional Office. The team arrived in Louisiana over the weekend.
The CSB is an independent US federal agency charged with investigating industrial chemical accidents. The agencys board members are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate. CSB investigations look into all aspects of chemical accidents, including physical causes such as equipment failure as well as inadequacies in regulations, industry standards, and safety management systems.

Hope to find out precisely the root- cause and to be a lesson for future.
P Vijayaraghavan 06.18.2013
very unfortunate. the investgations will definitely bring out human factors and cultural issues as well as failure to recognise earlier warnings. these will improve process safety management in our continual learning and improvement process.
Is the fatality figure (47 died) is correct?Can any body share what is priliminary root cauase of the incident? Why large number of poeple present at site before explosion - Due to turnaround activity?
Abdelkader 06.17.2013
Unfortunately we lost 2 guys during this accident and it could be worst. All what we have to do now is to concentrate on what has happened and how to avoid it in the future '' Lesson learnt''. I have been associated to many RCA (Root Cause Analysis) studies & believe me if I say for many reasons not every thing is said. That why I hope and I am confident that the specialists have to investigate every things: Procedures, Specifications, Material selection, Human being, etc.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
Will previously-planned downstream investments be cut back in 2015 due to lower global oil prices?
Yes 58%
No 12%
Depends how long current prices last 30%

Nov 2, 2013For the first time in a long time The Conjuring gives horror movies a chance to be good again. Everything from the score, to the cinematography, to a well though out story came together brilliantly to provide for a truly horrifying film.
Sep 28, 2013
Jan 5, 2014
May 26, 2014Why did people like this, how? This movie was cliche after cliche, everything in this movie was ripped from other (better) movies, and everything major that happened was so easy to see coming that it was PAINFUL.
Nov 19, 2013
Sep 2, 2013People in my cinema were laughing just to feel comfortable, this movie will scare you for good, probably one of the best horror movies in the last decade, a must watch for every horror fan out there.
Jul 20, 2013I don't have to write a long review on this. I can sum it up in a few words: the most terrifying film I've ever seen since the Exorcist (1973). I love horror movies, been watching them by myself since I was 4 and I have to say, do not see this alone like I did. The acting is good, the special effects (when necessary) were good, the storyline was fantastic, & the movie came together well.

Oct 14, 2013el conjuro, Expediente Warren y entre otros nombres es lo que revoluciona el terror hacia algo mejor, esta pelicula esta bien realizada con unos 20 millones bien aprovechados y con un toque de tipico y unico terror
Oct 2, 2013It has its moments,But overall its dull and like they tried to hard to make it scary which ruined it in my opinion,Its more gross and disturbing than thrilling or scary,definitely no hair raising moments for me.The worst Paranormal activity was still better than this movie.
Nov 2, 2013One of the rare films I found truly scary and truly captivating. Well worth the watch for horror lovers. Not sure why reviews have to be fifty characters long...
Aug 28, 2013The conjuring has a positive opening catching attention of the viewers. The Sound mixing and Sound track is amazing although it is a bit exaggerated. Overall the movie is good and gives viewers a good scare.
Aug 31, 2013If you despise dolls but love horror films, watch this one.
A lot of the time I wasn't on the edge of my seat, but sometimes it just gets you.
Fairly good in terms of most horrors, falls a bit short on occasion and the constant jump scares is a bit repetitive, but a good watch
I recommend -

Nov 7, 2013This movie is definitely one of the best horror movies I have seen so far. I was a bit skeptical at first of this movie, but once it started, I could not keep my eyes off the screen. It was definitely a better movie to see than "My Little Pony: Equestria Girls". I can't wait for James Wan's next installment in the Warren paranormal investigators saga.
Dec 13, 2013The Conjuring thrills with its countless scares and tense atmosphere. Solid acting and great cinematography only excels this as a thoroughly enjoyable (and old-school) horror flick.
Apr 28, 2014The same old generic story of a family moving into a house that is apparently haunted by a demon wasn't anything new. But it was pretty effective in scares. I was surprisingly satisfied with this film. The characters were fairly developed and the acting was great especially the kids. This movie offered scares and unsettling. I definitely recommend this film for those looking for horrifying thrill.

Jul 23, 2013For a movie with no body count, it was genuinely creepy. Best possession film since the Exorcist. Still deserved its R rating, good pacing and good progression. Only real problem is it felt like a Christian horror movie at times. But not to an extent where it was un watchable.
Aug 23, 2013I don't understand why people liked this movie. It did not have a single scary moment. The acting was bland and generic, to say the least. The Conjuring is an example of the horror genre is on 21st century life support. What a waste of money!
Jul 19, 2013
Jul 19, 2013Like the old-school horror flicks that inspired it, The Conjuring is more of an exercise in palpable tension and mounting dread than outright terror. It is a slow, quiet movie that definitely earns every scare it throws at you. Those suffering heart conditions might want to avoid this one.
Jul 27, 2013
Aug 4, 2013
Aug 10, 2013Now this is a scary movie. It may not be an original movie, but it succeeds at scary the living crap out of people! Overall, The horror genre is back! Be sure to check out my YouTube channel "TheMovieManLife" for all things movies.
Aug 3, 2013
Jul 20, 2013With minimal CGI, minimal jump scares, and awesome acting, James Wan's "The Conjuring" stands out as an awesome, original film. It's the kind of scary that gets under your skin and makes you feel very uncomfortable. Such a fun time in the movie theatre! Go watch this movie and have as much fun as I did!
Jul 27, 2013I watched The Conjuring Movie and saw that it was based on a true story that happened in Harrisville Rhode Island, so I decided to go check out the old farm house. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okCr61sYpsI
Jul 19, 2013Despite having a fairly standard haunted house horror plot, James Wan has created a fun, scary and beautiful looking movie. In The Conjuring, Wan uses skills learnt directing his previous films and old school 70's horror tricks to amp up the tension and ensure a sleepless night.
Jul 20, 2013
Jul 21, 2013Going into this movie I was expecting something that would have me on the edge of my seat, but to be honest this movie was nothing more than any other "horror film" nothing but a few jump scares. It wasn't terrible, just way to predictable.
Jul 21, 2013Not sure how this got an R rating...there was no bad language...no one ever really feels like something terrible is going to happen to them, there are few good creepy scenes and a couple of good jump scares using scary faces, the atmosphere is good but I was waiting for this film to really kick in.
Jul 31, 2013
Sep 3, 2013
Jul 19, 2013It may unfortunately lack in scares and may have one silly moment, but it is saved by beautiful cinematography, nice sound design, blood-curdling tension, fantastic acting and a nice retro and old fashioned feel. If the film managed to have more scares, James Wan's fantastic The Conjuring would have got a full score.
Jul 25, 2013I saw this movie last weekend and, whoa!, scary scary. I know it's based on a true story but Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are awesome! It takes the movie a little while to really pick up. They lay the ground work for the first hour but what comes later is well worth the wait. Definitely one I'll purchase for my Halloween and late nite collection.
Jul 21, 2013
Jul 20, 2013With James Wan's signature penchant for tension, a serious devotion to story and character, and an unexpectedly crowd-pleasing ending, "The Conjuring" is a horror movie with absolute class and refinement.
Jul 31, 2013
Jul 24, 2013The Conjuring was filmed very well. James Wan has created a very realistic vision of a possession type of film. Incredible casting. Definetely will recommend this movie to others.
Jul 19, 2013This is a superb horror film mainly because of the brilliant directing of James Wan and a great score. Wan is easily one of the best horror directors going today with Saw, Insidious, and now The Conjuring. Also I really thought Versa Farmiga and Lily Taylor gave the standout performances. I don't get shaken easily, but I got to say it got me a few times. A
Aug 15, 2013
Aug 3, 2013Best horror film I have ever seen, kept me on my toes the entire time, filled with amazing scares that had the whole cinema screaming in terror. The plot was great and was developed very well, with great suspense throughout the entire film.
Jul 20, 2013
Jul 29, 2013
Aug 14, 2013
Sep 19, 2013Honestly do not see how it's so critically acclaimed nor why users seem to like it so much. It was a very generic paranormal film that was not scary at all. Sort of disappointing considering it's directed by James Wan and starring Patrick Wilson, who were great together in Insidious.
Jul 30, 2013I love horror pictures and whenever a new one is release I see it, and The Conjuring is the first one that has scared me s***less since Paranormal Activity.
Jul 21, 2013It is definitely the best horror of the decade!!! Full package great acting, super immersive action, interesting plot! The only week point is that the ending happened very rapidly! Great horror movie
Aug 20, 2013
Jul 19, 2013Legitimately the best horror movie in the last 30 years. The Conjuring conjures up the same type of atmosphere as the horror greats in the 70s and early 80s. The scares come continuously, and the story is well written and acted. The characters are relatable and well formed. Very strongly recommend!
Jul 24, 2013
Aug 9, 2013This is the first movie to make me shout at the theaters.The story is great at the same time creepy.Not many horror movies I watch is that scary.I proclaim this movie as the scariest movie I've ever watched.
Jul 23, 2013
Jul 22, 2013Take a bunch of horror cliches, throw in unnecessary side stories, remove what suspense there is by bringing in "ghost hunters," stir and fall asleep.

Aug 3, 2013The fact that this piece of crap, generic, been done before film with glaring mistakes is getting fantastical reviews truly leaves me scared for my fellow human beings on metacritic.
Jul 20, 2013Why was this movie rated R? There was nothing scary or creepy about this movie and the jump scares were completely ineffective. I'm glad I only paid the matinée price. So disappointing.

Sep 10, 2013
Jul 25, 2013
Aug 25, 2013What started out as a genuine creepy film slowly devolved into your usual run-of-the-mill exorcism later on. The main antagonist is revealed halfway through, ruining the sense of unknown dread and generally playing out the rest of the movie as a drama.
Aug 9, 2013
Jan 4, 2015
Aug 8, 2013Best horror movie maybe in last ten years or more. A really good horror movie and enjoyed it very much. Great direction, great script and obviously very scary.
Aug 20, 2013An almost flawless, nostalgic James Wan directed horror flick which may occasionally slide into slightly familiar territory. There are phenomenal performances all round especially from Famiga, who's really coming into her own. The movie has some flaws but becomes an instant horror classic and is arguably Wan's best movie.
Sep 1, 2013
Sep 6, 2013This movie is really awesome, it is not like the typical kind of exorcism and demons movie, it´s like paranormal activity but with real exorcism and really good actors. If you get to watch it on the cinema remember to scream yourself out!!! go with some girls
Sep 9, 2013It's Funny How People Are Saying Negative Things About The Movie... Most Of The Normal People Would Say They Don't Want To Reveal That They Wet Themselves
Oct 8, 2014
Dec 14, 2013Scary? For me, not really. If you were scared watching Paranormal Activity, then this film will probably scare you. I did find the film interesting though. Went online afterwords to research the story and authenticity of the film version.
Aug 2, 2013One of the best scary movie I've ever seen! The acting, cinematography and plot are all good! James Wan done some very good job to this movie! I love it!
Aug 15, 2013simon abrams and i rarely agree on films, but hes 100 percent correct this time. The movie was long drawn out and boring on two levels. Drugs and or alcohol will not help because through out the movie is a constant irritating noise that will give you a headache. predictable, long, boring, headache...
Aug 29, 2013A solid horror movie.
The conjuring is an old school horror movie where the emphasis is not on blood and gore but on psychological tension. It's one of the best film of 2013 so far. -

Sep 2, 2014The Conjuring is by and far the scariest film of 2013. A film about paranormal investigators (vividly portrayed by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga), it's chilling and a flashback to early horror flicks.
Dec 9, 2013For a genre that almost always gets it wrong, The Conjuring finally gets it right. Not only is it actually scary, but the film also manages to tie in good acting, score, production, and a perfect pace. Something that cannot be said of any other horror movie that comes to mind.

Wan's film is a sturdily built supernatural chiller, with next-to-no digital effects or gore, and it delivers its scares with a breezy lack of urgency.
I'd be shocked if we see a better horror film in 2013.
The Conjuring is as toothless as it is because it's two different kinds of boring. The film's plot is explained exhaustively whenever loud noises aren't blaring, and random objects aren't teasingly leaping out at you from the corner of your eye.

Phoronix: Intel Linux Graphics Performance Q4'08
The past year has brought several invasive changes to the Intel Linux graphics stack with the introduction of the Graphics Execution Manager for GPU memory management within the kernel, support for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure 2, and kernel mode-setting finally getting ready to enter the limelight. How though has the work this year affected the overall performance of Intel integrated graphics on Linux? In this article we have run a few benchmarks that show where the driver was at a few months ago and where it is today.
Hmm, this was very horrible to read, there must be something very wrong here, well its a bit left before release
Ouch! Can something like that be posted so close to Xmas?
Damn, a friend is looking to buy a 4500-based laptop, but with this kind of performance it will be unusable.
Michael, can you comment on regular computing tasks? Can the driver play fullscreen video? Is compiz usable (e.g. when browsing the web)?
i had to do LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 before running any glx app to get good performance with uxa and dri2.
Without it glxinfo only reports software rasterization.
It's OK, the open-source coders will save the day of course. Don't worry about it, they got it covered!
That test is wrong. You don't compare different drivers on different distros. You compare them on the same distro. Now I get to say that it's not the driver that is slower, but it's the newer Ubuntu version that slows it down.
Kernel, xorg-server, mesa, mesa dri drivers and intel drivers are too many variables to compare if you want meaningful results. Moreover, distros adapt certain settings (like whether to choose exa or xaa, whether to enable XAANoOffscreenPixmaps, etc.) during the course of their beta cycles. Using a beta distro may therefore not tell all that much. What you should do is try to single out where the problem lies by using the same intel driver with different xorg-servers and mesas and then different servers with different drivers, etc.
My experience is that the exa acceleration method on intel regressed slightly from the i810 to the intel driver and incredibly much from X 7.3 to 7.4. I have thus switched back to xaa. With XAANoOffscreenPixmaps and EnablePageFlip it renders slower in recent xorg-servers (including 18.104.22.168), but is still acceptable for compositing window managers. I suspect regressions in mesa as well, but then git snapshots do not tell all that much. The new mesa is supposed to be released this month btw.
Much in X is in a transition period that has started a few months back and will come to a close in early 2009. Most of those exciting things you read about on phoronix will be delivered for intel cards first, thanks to openness and good support! For now, you can use an older X (no one forces you to use Ubuntu alpha releases) and simply wait until the dust has settled.
But even if you go for unstable stuff, in my experience, all recent snapshots of mesa, xorg, intel drivers, etc. are good enough for compositing (i.e. compiz or kwin) if you play a little with xorg.conf. Moreover, your favorite distro will probably avoid the more problematic releases.
I find it pointless to publish benchmarking results from the Ubuntu development version just a few days after its introduction of a new major version of the xserver and other bits. At this point, you're happy if the Xorg stack builds and runs. Now comes a period of ironing out compatibility issues and other newly discovered bugs before performance can be optimized.
To compare intel 2.4 vs 2.5 I can suggest the intel 2.5 and corresponding libdrm packages for Ubuntu 8.10 in the "intel-gfx-testing" PPA (see the ubuntu-x mailing list for details). These packages have not been thoroughly tested either, but at least the Xorg base will be the same so there is a better chance the performance difference is actually due to the driver.
