OMG. So it's finally coming to Linux on x86. Well, though that's nice it's also very late.
My NDA doesn't forbid me (I hope) to tell that I was one of the closed Betatesters in Germany for Sacred. So on one hand I appreciate that it's going to have a native port for Linux finally but on the other hand I've seen enough of that game in all the time of intensive betatesting.
Since it took off some remains from LMK which was intended to be kind of a Realms of Arkania (DSA/TDE The Dark Eye German Fantasy P&P RPG) like release I was happy to see the remains of LMK brought to life finally after LMK had such an unfortunate death.
But it was way too action like for me as a roleplayer, way too much hack and slay a la Diablo. Anyway. A lot of people liked it and I still had my share of fun too even though it wasn't perfectly my taste.
But the general problem I see is that firms like LGP or Loki (r.i.p.) do a lot of portation work but always with titles that are years old. Y'know the W32 version of these games is 3-4 years old and available on "Grabbeltisch" (cheapo table with mixed stuff thrown in in the supermarkets "each items 10E") for about 10E / 12-15 US$. So all those people being short on money (e.g. most pupils, students, but probably main group of gamers?) who have a dual boot system or are using WINE or Cedega will probably have problems spending full price for a native port when they either already played the game on W32 or have the mentioned solutions and can use the W32-chapo-re-release for 10 E.
I wish that portation release would be in similar time like the "official" W32 releases by the main company. (see many independent games or most id soft stuff, releasing W32, MacOS, Linux versions at about same time)
And a Digital Restriction management would be really, really awful. I guess Linux/free OS users are even more susceptible and sensitive to DRM than the average Windows gamer. And most of them I hear complaining about DRM keeping them from playing their PAID and fully licensed games.
So DRM is a big no-go and no-buy for me and I really rarely make exceptions.

With a workforce of nearly 3 million, the retail industry is the UK's largest private sector employment provider, which in turn means employers are always looking for retail staff. It is responsible for bringing jobs to about 11% of the nation's workers and is a major economic force in the UK.
There are an estimated 280,000 retail locations throughout the UK, which together account for more than a third of all annual spending in the UK. In 2012 UK retail sales were over £311 billion.Today, online retail is becoming an increasingly important aspect of the industry, and there are now more than 600,000 jobs specialising in this field.
Common positions listed through recruitment agencies include Sales Assistant, Visual Merchandising, and Purchasing Agent. Salaries range from £15K to about £50K annually, but the wide majority of staff in retail earn in the £15-25K range. The average income for retail workers in the UK is £25,000, but in London that average rises to £37,000 annually. Retail staff are sometimes asked to work holidays, evening, and weekends. Many positions available in the sector are part-time, but there are countless opportunities for full-time employment as well. The UK's largest employers are Aldi, John Lewis Partnership, Tesco, Marks & Spencer, and Next.

Red Bull KTM Factory Racing's Jeffrey Herlings put injury behind him on Sunday and rose to the occasion to score a double victory at the Dutch Lierop track in front of his home crowd. Herlings 1-1 in the deep sand rounded off a top season where he secured his second MX2 World title with three rounds in hand.
Jeffrey Herlings was joined on the podium by teammate Jordi Tixier of France in third place, while in MX1, 2013 World Champion Tony Cairoli finished third with KTM teammate Ken de Dycker in fifth. Both Tixier and de Dycker had some injury issues that held them back on what was a very difficult Lierop track.
Cairoli, who settled his seventh World title at Matterley Basin UK in the previous round, opted to ride the KTM 450 SX-F machine instead of his usual KTM 350 SX-F. He finished fourth in the opening moto after some minor technical difficulties but had decisive win in the second moto, crossing the line 53 seconds ahead of second-placed Kevin Strijbos!
The final Grand Prix result was very close when competition heated up between the five leading riders. Going into the last lap, Cairoli was in with a chance to finish second or third in the GP, depending on the outcome of the minor places. The eventual outright win by outsider Shaun Simpson was a popular one.
Tony Cairoli: "I was quite cautious at the beginning of the first race with the KTM 450, but then I really went for it in the second moto. I had my best lap times and the speed was good."
Herlings performance on the badly cut up sand track was all the more remarkable because it was just three weeks after fracturing his shoulder blade at the Belgium GP. He had made a snap decision on Friday to race, even though doctors said he should be off the bike for six weeks. The wet and heavy track also played into his hands because he and other riders shied away from challenging jumps that would have jarred his injured shoulder.
Herlings won the opening moto by 24 seconds and quickly opened up a 12 second lead at the start of the second race before a crash trimmed his lead by eight seconds. He scrambled back in the action and put in some of his fastest laps in the closing stages on his KTM 250 SX-F.
Tixier, already second in the championship finished 3-4 on the difficult track. Spanish KTM rider Jose Butron, who is no friend of sand tracks finished back at sixteenth place but was still picked up enough points to finish third in the championship. "My goal for the season was top five so I am very happy to finish top three," Butron said.
The final EMX title, for the EMX250 class was also settled in Lierop and was won by Swiss KTM rider Valentin Guillod. "This weekend I showed everybody I can also ride in sand and I am very strong mentally and physically," he said. KTM's Pauls Jonass, already the EMX125 champion rode in the EMX250 race this weekend and finished an excellent fourth.
The final round wrapped up another great year for the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing Team. As well as the MX1 & MX2 titles KTM was also top manufacturer in both classes!
The KTM factory riders now prepare for the Motocross of Nations at Germany's Teutschental circuit the last weekend in September.

With Holland off, Rangers can't catch up
ARLINGTON -- Derek Holland talked like a pitcher who's pretty accustomed to winning as he stood in front of his locker after a bummer of a start in Monday's 7-4 Rangers loss to the Yankees.
That's because that's all Holland has done since last August -- win. The left-hander carried a seven-game winning streak into Monday's outing, and including the postseason, he had won 13 of his last 14 starts, which put him in the company of just a handful of pitchers in the Majors.
That's why it was so refreshing to see the disappointment on Holland's face as he dissected Monday's flat start, which included four walks and a killer three-run home run hit by Alex Rodriguez that gave the Yankees an insurmountable 6-1 lead in the top of the fifth.
"I'm pretty upset with myself," said Holland, who allowed seven runs on nine hits in six innings, striking out just one. "I didn't battle as well as I usually have been before. The walks really killed me. I didn't give my defense anything to play with."
The Rangers, who entered their first series against the Yankees with the best record in the Majors at 13-3, got a rare poor outing from a starting pitcher -- the rotation was 10-1 with 2.54 ERA entering Monday night.
Holland was off from the start. Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, who is hitting like he's Holland's age again -- 25 -- started off the game with one of his four hits on an infield single. The Yankees loaded the bases with one out on Robinson Cano's single to right and Rodriguez's walk.
Holland bounced back with what looked like a big strikeout of Mark Teixeira, but the lefty couldn't retire Curtis Granderson, who blooped a single into center field to give New York a 2-0 lead.
Holland righted himself over the next three innings, but another full-count walk to start the fifth -- this one to No. 9 hitter Chris Stewart -- set up the decisive moment. It didn't help that the Rangers had Stewart picked off, but catcher Mike Napoli's throw to second was off line for an error.
The Yankees, as they so often do, made the Rangers pay. Jeter and Cano singled again around a Nick Swisher sacrifice fly to give New York a 3-1 lead. Rodriguez then crushed an 0-1 fastball for his home run, the 632nd of his career.
"It was poor execution," Holland said. "I was trying to overthrow a little bit. It was a mental thing. I didn't hit my spots. It was just one of those nights, I guess."
The Rangers did creep back into the game in the late innings. Josh Hamilton hit his eighth home run of the season, a 419-foot drive to right-center field to make it 7-2. Craig Gentry hit a two-run double in the seventh inning to push the Rangers to within 7-4.
But CC Sabathia, who entered Monday with an un-Sabathia-like 5.59 ERA, got the Yankees through eight innings and got the ball to closer Mariano Rivera, who recorded three easy outs.
"That's a really good team," Sabathia said. "They've been in the World Series the past two years, and they pretty much have the same squad coming back. It feels good to come in here, play well and get a win tonight."
The knee-jerk reaction to Monday night's loss would be to think back to Holland's on-again, off again first half last season. Holland was 6-4 with a 5.10 ERA over his first 17 starts in 2011 before going on a monster run that lasted through the postseason.
Rangers manager Ron Washington sees no similarities between Monday's outing and the Holland of last year's first half. The left-hander simply didn't have his best stuff.
"It's nothing even close to it," Washington said. "That's a good team over there, as far as stepping into that batter's box. They make you earn it. They can make a lot of pitchers look erratic. I like the way Derek fought. I like the way he battled. He'll be better for it."
And Holland, who can be a bit quirky with his bushy hair, mustache and Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonations, impressed by getting through six innings and taking the loss like a professional, standing in front of his locker and taking all questions after the game.
It's something of which team leader Michael Young and his teammates take notice.
"The Yankees strung together some hits," Young said. "He battled. They found a way to hit some tough pitches. He's getting to be a real professional now.
"The thing with Derek is, one, he knows he's really good, which is a great thing to have if you want to be an impact big leaguer," Young said. "When you're talking about him, knowing him, he's already champing at the bit for his next start. When he looks at this start, he'll look at things he wants to get better at. He'll make his really good adjustments, and he'll be ready to roll in five days. We look forward to playing behind him."

I got this ring in the white for myself, when It arrived I was extremely impressed with the quality & the bling of this ring. It looks a lot more expensive than it is. This ring is so beautiful I also got it in the white/black for myself as well. I also purchased the yellow/ white & white/black for 2 of my girlfriends. When they received the ring I got calls from both the girls ecstatic about the ring! They were shocked when I told them the price! To get 1/4 of diamonds in such a bold piece for under $40 is truly a steal! Only on overstock can you find jewelry this gorgeous for very reasonable costs, extremely reasonable!! I would absolutely recommend this ring to anyone looking for a bold, beautiful, and very blingy piece that you can wear casually or to a black tie event!! Once again Overstock has combined affordability, quality, and beauty to their amazing selection of jewelry!!! GO BIG O!!!
This is a beautiful ring for use as a wedding band or a right hand fashion ring. I fell in love with it but had to return it! If you have small hands and fingers, I wear a 5 in wide rings, it's quite large. It was just too much for my hand and uncomfortable. Returning with O is a breeze!!
this ring is perfect along with any other jewery. The fill-n peice you've been looking for. It does snag my pantyhose though.. not as smooth.
Only recommend for formal wear not everyday wear. The ring will snag on sweaters, lace, etc...so be careful with this ring...but overall not much bling...
I LOVE THIS RING! I actually ended up buying one in each color... gave one to a girlfriend that LOVED IT got the two toned one for my pointer or middle finger & the black diamond one for my ring finger. They are GORGEOUS! I've had so many compliments on the one with the black diamonds! Haven't wore the two toned one much yet but did get compliments on it the one time I wore it. Seemed a little uncomfortable at first but I got used to it! Love, love, love them! No one believes how little I paid (gonna stop telling people my little secret!)
What a beautiful ring! Love it. Because it is wide, you need a long finger to wear it comfortably. A womans' ring - not for kids.
Nice ring for the price and as expected.
A lovely detailed band with intricate fretwork that shows off the alternating pattern. Dainty in design and delightful to wear.
Great price and very elegent
This ring was uncomfortable to wear as the "stones" are all the way around the ring. From distance it looks nice, but up close it looks cheap.

Can someone explain to me how this whole "no copy" thing even works? I mean for the GPU to operate on data, it has to be resident in VRAM right?
How can you circumvent a copy if this RAM -> VRAM transfer is still there? Does the GPU read directly from RAM?

Win drivers which are worse than Linux drivers are really a good marketing instrument *g* I would like to know if this product can render pointsprites, but I don't think so with 8-4... So the real question is: what will happen with 8-5
Phoronix: AMD FireGL V8600: Linux vs. Windows
Since the introduction of AMD's new Linux OpenGL driver and their open-source strategy running in parallel, the past few months have been especially exciting for ATI Linux users and the Linux graphics scene in general. To many Linux users, ATI graphics have went from being a name synonymous with problems and poor 3D performance to being an open-source crown jewel that has set a precedence in the industry by releasing their GPU register documentation, but at the same time continuing to develop their high-performance proprietary driver for users interested in the best performance and enabling all of the bells and whistles on their graphics card.
Win drivers which are worse than Linux drivers are really a good marketing instrument *g* I would like to know if this product can render pointsprites, but I don't think so with 8-4... So the real question is: what will happen with 8-5
Ok... here is my problem:
With my next (standalone) system, I'm really considering to buy a graphics card of the professional series (FireGL or Quadro), but besides working with CAx applicatiosn, I also like to play a game from time to time.
Unfortunately there are only a few benchmarks available which don't stop their tests by just using SPECView. The question is WHY? You see a lot of benchmarks done with SPECView, including both cards - one from the consumer series, and one from the professional series. But you rarely see a FireGL or Quadro card tested for their performance on games. (ET/ET-QW/D3/Q4)
Lack of time? NDA? Why not run the typical series of OpenGL games on Linux to see how those cards perform? Currently I'm using an NW8440 and an T61p, both with the mobile versions of an FireGL or Quadro. In general I'd say the card perform very well (sometimes better), but it's more subject to my own point of view.
I'd be also interested in how those card perform in an SLI/Crossfire configuration. Any chance to see such tests on Phoronix? ;-)
Crossfire is not possible with Linux, only SLI.
Too bad that for the time being CrossFire is not supported, however, it looks as if AMD is working on bringing multi GPU support to Linux... I may have misunderstood what I read, though.
Thank you very much. I appreciate it, and looking forward to it.I can do some gaming tests on the V8600 within a week or two, once Catalyst 8.5 is out there...
It's really unfortunate that CrossFire(X), or it's equivalent for the FireGL Series, is not supported within Linux. It looks like my new system will haven an nVidia card after all.
Great review... makes me want one of these cards.
ATI is even unable to add the X2 PCI-IDs to the driver - they would work at least in single gpu mode - but not even that did they do. So officially they are completely unsupported right now.

The tartar preserved on the teeth of ancient skeletons provides yet another reason to cut back on sugar-sweetened drinks and overall sugar.
In a study recently published in Nature, British and Australian researchers extracted DNA from dental plaque on 34 prehistoric northern European human skeletons to examine oral bacteria. Then they looked at oral bacteria in the last hunter-gatherers, the first farmers, people from the later Bronze Age, Medieval Times, the Industrial Age and today.
Genetic history encapsulated in the dental plaque reflects two major shifts in human diet – the adoption of a carbohydrate-rich Neolithic farming diet about 10,000 years ago and the uptake in industrially processed flour and sugar during the Industrial Revolution about 150 years ago.
As processed sugar and flour increased in the diet, diversity of oral bacteria plunged, letting caries-causing bacteria dominate. The dietary change spurred tooth decay, diabetes and heart disease—health problems we continue to grapple with today.
"The modern mouth basically exists in a permanently diseased state. Ironically, the introduction of sugar and carbohydrates contributed to the increase in dental plaque that now holds the vital information scientists are studying," one researcher noted in University World News.
"Until now, scientists have had to rely mainly on indirect evidence or historical documents to tell what people ate and what kind of illnesses they suffered from in the past. But now they can directly extract genetic information on diet and health from the tartar on teeth – which is very abundant and well preserved in the archaeological record – giving them a totally new source of unique information stretching back thousands of years."

Lexus readies LF-A supercar for sale
Article Summary
October 29, 2005 It was only a matter of time before Toyota (aka Lexus) stepped into supercar territory, and the betting is that the Lexus LF-A will be the manufacturer's first entry into the rarified 200+ mph marketplace. First shown earlier this year, the car was again on display in Tokyo last week where it was confirmed that the car will be powered by no less an engine than a V10, and follows on from Honda's announcement that it will be powering its NSX replacement with a V10 too.

We would say that this space station play set is "out of this world," but that would be cliché. Instead, we'll just mention how it's over 40" tall and features five levels. The included space characters and equipment will really help playtime "blast off." Sorry, we couldn't help ourselves.

Judging by their slang it looks like they're having a lot of fun. E19 should be worth trying out.
Phoronix: Enlightenment's Compositor Gets A Huge Rewrite
It's been less than one month since the release of Enlightenment E18, but already there are exciting changes landed for its follow on release. Pushed on Tuesday were many more interesting changes to Enlightenment's Git repository. The most important change was a huge window management and compositor rewrite...
Judging by their slang it looks like they're having a lot of fun. E19 should be worth trying out.
Enlightenment seems the most interesting desktop environment these days, but despite the large optimization and such, it needs improved stability (I have frequent crashes on it, I use it on a secondary computer I have) and features (there's some stuff people use it on KDE or Gnome/Cinnamon that aren't here) without making performance worse (a very difficult task, I know). I think it needs some more apps, like a software similar to Okular and other stuff.
What's interesting of this rewrite? Despite the large change of code, it seems they managed to make the code smaller:
343 files changed, 26292 insertions, 30694 deletions
Are those insertions changes or lines? It could be interesting to compare the code size
If someone gets to get it to work with pure wayland could he provide some tips or a tutorial???
As for stability E17 and E18 seem rock solid for me. It's missing stuff (The daaaaaammmmnnnn File manager) but it is a great DE. Also if you find stuff missing post them on their bugzilla.
When they where working on it in another branch I got it to work a bit, but only as a nested session.
I'm going by my build scripts:
Build EFL, elementary, enlightenment
--enable-wayland --enable-egl --with-opengl=es --enable-fb --enable-drm to EFL
--enable-ecore-wayland to elementary
--enable-wayland-egl --enable-wayland-clients --enable-wayland-only --enable-wl-fb --enable-wl-x11 to Enlightenment
You need to export
E_WL_FORCE=x11 (to run nested)
E_WL_FORCE=fb (to run on Framebuffer)
last I tested, Framebuffer didn't work as it tried to connect to an X server still, but that was before.
There's also
E_WL_FORCE=drm for Kernel mode setting systems, but I don't think thats finished yet? most KMS systems provide a virtual /dev/fb0 anyway for now...
after settimg the E_WL_FORCE var to x11, run
it runs in a nested x11 window
Last I tried fb backend it fails due to some pointer initilzation trying to connect to an X server... but now that they moved to the master branch, they could have fixed it......or I am doing something wrong too...
I would not want to be on the CR for that one.
Don't look at me, I can't even get weston to run right on my play machine without using the X11 backend.

Hawaii skier survives after being stranded on snow covered mountain
UPDATED 11:50 PM CDT Sep 30, 2013A Hawaii man's death-defying vacation almost became his last vacation.
Video TranscriptHawaii man's death-defying VACATION! His latest ski trip nearly became his LAST ... But sheer will helped him survive a night in the snow... KITV4's Brenton Awa has his harrowing story..... Toby Kravet is 72-years-old... He's been skiing for 35 of those... Toby doesn't plan on quitting anytime soon...even though his last trip left him rehabbing his legs 145 "I'M GOING DOWNHILL AT A BREAK NECK SPEED DOWNHILL AND BOOM, I WENT INTO A GULLY AND MY SKIS WENT INTO THE EMBANKMENT ON THE OTHER SIDE." Kravet was already tempting fate... Poor weather had just rolled into one of his favorite ski slopes in New Zealand... But instead of staying in the lodge.. He chose the snow. One more run. Now he was in trouble .. And he knew it. 205 "I ROLLED OVER AND LOOKED AT MY BOOT AND MY LEFT BOOT IS POINTING TOWARDS MY LEG A LITTLE BIT." Both legs were broken, and Kravet was miles from help. But just before sunset -- he saw a helicopter. 423 "AND I HAD GRABBED MY POLES AND I WAS WAVING THEM AND THE HELICOPTER DIDN'T SEE ME AND I KNEW AT THAT POINT I WAS IN FOR THE NIGHT." Death initially clouded Kravet's mind. But his gut told him he could make it. Despite the freezing temperature. Kravet went into survival mode. 520 "I'M GONNA HAVE TO STAY AWAKE, IM GOING TO BE HERE ALL NIGHT, I CANT LET MYSELF GO TO SLEEP AND I HAVE TO KEEP MY BLOOD MOVING." Kravet did sets of made up exercises ... 100 reps of clapping -- hugging -- and hitting his legs all night. 727 "I JUST KNEW THAT I HAD TO KEEP DOING WHAT I WAS DOING TO STAY ALIVE." After 17 hours -- help flew in. 853 "I WAS WAVING MY POLES AND HE CAME B LINING TO ME." 1017 "I'M THINKING I AM A VERY FORTUNATE MAN." Kravet was able to finally return to Hawaii last week. He'll be in rehab for at least another three weeks before being re-evaluated by his doctor. Kravet plans on someday skiing again at that same mountain in New Zealand. Still ahead -- The blame game in

Many people do not see a distinction between these very different types of institutions and that is a shame. Because, while you can get many of the same financial products from a variety of providers, their fundamental approach to doing business may eventually have an impact on how well you sleep at night.
Credit unions are not-for-profit democratically controlled financial cooperatives. Here is what that simple definition means to you..
To begin with, credit unions are not-for-profit. This simple phrase distinguishes the credit union as a business that exists for a purpose other than enriching its owners. The purpose of the credit union is to provide high-quality, low-cost financial services. On the other hand the purpose of a for-profit institution is quite simply to generate a profit and if they provide good products and services while doing so that is an added benefit.
Because credit unions are not-for-profit they can and usually do offer the consumer lower rates on loans, higher rates on savings, and fewer and smaller fees on accounts. Revenue that would be handed to third-party owners as a corporate profit is instead returned to the members by improving product, price, and service.
Perhaps the least widely known or understood part of this credit definition is the idea of democratic control. The notion that a consumer has the opportunity to voice equal control over the future of his or her financial institution is outside the experience of most consumers. While democratic control might not be fully appreciated but it is what ensures that the credit union will be run for the benefit of all its members.
Democratic control makes the credit union a part of the communities it serves rather than an engine of profit seeking markets where it can reap maximum revenue. Individual credit union members who determine the future of the credit union have no better use for the capital that the institution controls than to continue the credit union's mission of service to the community. The stockholders who own the bank are always on the look out for a way to make the bank more profitable, including merging or selling out of a market.
The last of the three core components of the definition is the idea of the credit union as a financial cooperative. A cooperative business is one which is established to benefit all of its members/owners. This notion of a financial business as a shared resource that brings value to all of its members has been with the credit union movement since its inception and it clearly separates credit unions from all other financial businesses.
Credit unions are the most successful and widespread of cooperative business in the United States. This form of ownership provides a useful, in fact an essential, check on the conglomerates that are exercising increasing control over retail commerce. Businesses that are run by and for the people who use them set pricing and service benchmarks that benefit all consumers.

This study aims to obtain a better understanding of the genetic causes of Hodgkin's disease (a kind of lymphoma) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, as well as multiple myeloma, leukemia, and related diseases. Together these diseases are referred to as "lymphoproliferative disorders."
Participants in the study will include: (1) patients who have had a lymphoproliferative disorder such as lymphoma, leukemia, or multiple myeloma, and have a family member with one of these disorders, or (2) individuals who are a member of a family with more than one case of a lymphoproliferative disorder. Study data will be collected by analyzing blood samples as well as family medical history.
The goal of the study is to identify genetic changes that may predict a person's risk of developing one of these diseases. Research methods will involve sequencing to discover new genes. (Note: The results of individual research blood tests cannot be provided to participants; however, an overall summary of the research findings will be communicated to all interested enrollees.)
The following individuals are eligible to participate in this study:

I'm Molar Alan, and this is my story. It is as real to me as the Santa of my youth, and I share it with an enduring hope that yo will carry its message beyond the realm of reindeer, elves, or toys and embed it deep in your heart where the distractions and disappointments of life can't enter, where the worldly can look but not touch, and where the rich in spirit can come and go at will. As with many Christmas stories, mine began on Santa's lap. But this was no ordinary Santa, and he had anything but an ordinary lap.
I'm sure hearing the words Christmas story and cancer makes you think this book is a real tear-jerker, but it definitely is not! It is funny, inspiring, and a little unpredictable. The characters are interesting and each has a special role: Aaron, the protective older brother, All-American boy; Mo, beginning to question the way the world works; Madhu, the Hindu, who wants to learn all he can about the wonderful holiday everyone is celebrating; Katrina, surviving against the odds, and Dr. Ringle, is he really Santa?
At 150 pages, this book would be great for a family read-aloud in the weeks leading up to Christmas. I gave the book to my 10-year-old niece who read it in two days and really enjoyed it. She found many parts funny, and noticed details that I had overlooked. Our family has had many experiences with cancer, so that aspect of the book didn't stand out to her, as it might with other kids her age. Her favorite parts were at the beginning when Mo and Aaron sit on Santa's lap, which is where I totally laughed out loud also, and the pageant at the end. The epilogue made her ask questions and wonder what would happen with Mo and his own children, a great endorsement for any book!
I enjoyed this book so much, I'd like to pass the feeling on to a lucky reader of this blog! If you'd like to win, please leave a story in the comments about a way you try to bring the real meaning of Christmas to your family: Toys for Tots, donating time, adopting a family, anything that you do specifically for this time of year. Deadline to enter will be Monday, December 8, midnight Eastern time. I will announce the winner on Tuesday, December 9.

Barre teen pleads guilty to Aldrich Block arson
BARRE — A teen who helped set fire to the Aldrich Block in 2010 is admitting the crime as well as a role in another arson in Williamstown last year.
Jessica Delary, 19, of Barre, pleaded guilty to second-degree arson, burglary and violating conditions of release in Washington County criminal court in Barre on Wednesday. She has agreed to a sentence of six months to five years in jail as well as probation for one to five years.
In pleading guilty, Delary said the information in the police affidavit about the Aldrich Block fire was accurate. According to the affidavit, Delary and Nicholas Witham, 19, of Roxbury, spread a substance they believed to be paint, but which was roofing tar, on the floor of an office in the century-old building. The two had entered the vacant building several times by climbing a fire escape to the third floor and forcing open a window.
Delary and Witham started the fire by using checks from the Key Bank that had previously been located in the building. The two tried to extinguish the fire with a piece of Plexiglas that melted and a wall painting that instead fanned the flames.
Delary and Witham then fled the building without calling emergency services.
Delary's formal sentencing was pending until the building owners, Mayor Thomas Lauzon and his wife, Karen, could give a statement about the crime's impact on them and the sentencing deal. Mayor Lauzon, however, said Wednesday afternoon that he declined the opportunity to do so.
"I don't think it's appropriate, because I can't separate myself from the fact that I'm the mayor," he said. "In that respect, I don't know if my testimony would carry more or less weight to the judge. In either case, it wouldn't be fair."
Lauzon said the fire caused around $3 million in damage to the building, which has been repaired. He said his insurance policy covered only $1 million.
The case had been held up as Delary sought — unsuccessfully — youthful offender status since she was 16 at the time of the fire. As part of the plea agreement, State's Attorney Thomas Kelly said Wednesday that Delary, who was facing a separate arson charge in Orange County, is being allowed to plead guilty to a lesser charge of felony unlawful trespass and will have another year added to her maximum sentence in Washington County, resulting in a sentence of six months to six years altogether.
In the Orange County case, Delary is accused of participating in several fires set in and around the former Rosewood Inn in Williamstown in July. The flames were put out before they could do any serious damage. The charge of violating conditions of release that Delary admitted to stemmed from her being out past her court-ordered curfew at the time the Williamstown fires were set.
Witham pleaded guilty to being involved in the Aldrich Block fire in 2011 and was given a seven-year deferred sentence. He picked up more charges since then, however, and was sentenced in November for two violations of probation, possession of alcohol by a minor, and supplying alcohol to minors, all misdemeanors. He was sentenced to six years in jail.

While growing up in the idyllic hamlet of Tucker's Crossing, MS, brothers David and Mike Landrum would spend hours imagining their futures as entrepreneurs – putting together business ventures that would make them wealthy men. But, like so many youthful dreams, they faced little chance of coming true. "Even if we had ever come up with a good idea," remembers David, "which we didn't – we didn't have any money. With most business start-ups, the old adage is true, 'You've got to have money to make money.'"
After high school, David filled his life with managing a health club, attending the University of Southern Mississippi full time and starting a life together with his new wife, Jill.
Mike followed David to university some years later with a promising career in football ahead of him. "Football was a huge dream of mine," smiles Mike, "I love the strategy, the camaraderie. I really love winning." Mike continued on into professional football after college.
Meanwhile, the year was 1980 and David had heard about a new company called A. L. Williams – now Primerica. "I liked several things about how Primerica worked," says David. "You didn't need serious money to get started. You could start part-time if you wanted to. The business was about helping people and about building a team of other entrepreneurs."
Only four months after starting with Primerica, David decided to go full-time and opened his own office in the town of Laurel, MS – with Jill as the office administrator. Five months after that he opened his second office on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Next was Jackson, MS, and then on and on.
While David was building his Primerica business, Mike was knocking heads as an Atlanta Falcon when he sustained a career-ending injury. "My dream died on the field the day I was injured," says Mike. "I didn't think I would ever find anything to replace football."
Searching for something to do, Mike returned to Mississippi. "I was at a low point in my life," say Mike. "I lost $40,000 that I didn't have to lose on a bad business investment. Nothing was going right." But then things started to look up. For starters, he met his future wife, Amy.
The next thing to go right was that David convinced Mike to give Primerica a 60-day try. "I could see things were going great for David," says Mike. "In the beginning I felt awkward meeting with people to discuss their finances. It was just a matter of growing a bit by getting out of my comfort zone."
After 60 days with David, Mike and Amy were really excited about what they could do at Primerica. "We have both 'grown up' with this company," says Mike. "Things were slow for us at first, but soon picked up. And as, our capabilities and business grew, so did our dreams."
Today, Primerica really is a family business for the Landrums. Both David and Jill and Mike and Amy have more than 100 offices in their organizations. They are both financially independent many times over. "And it's all from following our dreams and helping Main Street families," says David. "We remember Tucker's Crossing is where we came from."

Daily OCD 11/14/12 | |
Written by Jen Vaughn | Filed under Wally Wood, Steven Weissman, Ron Regé Jr, Robert Crumb, Peanuts, Lilli Carré, Joost Swarte, Johnny Ryan, Jim Woodring, Jaime Hernandez, Jacques Boyreau, Harvey Kurtzman, Hal Foster, Greg Sadowski, Gary Panter, Floyd Gottfredson, Ellen Forney, EC Comics, Disney, Daily OCD, Chris Wright, Charles M Schulz, Charles Burns, Carl Barks, Basil Wolverton | 14 Nov 2012 6:20 PM |
The first rain-free (HA!) day of Online Commentaries & Diversions:
• Review: Robot 6 reviews The Cartoon Utopia by Ron Rege Jr. Chris Mautner writes "with Rege drawing science, new age spiritualism, the occult, astrology and Jungian archetypes to come up with a personal grand unification theory. There are no plots or characters in the book to speak of, instead Rege merely muses and illustrates his theories, which mainly have to on the interconnectedness of all living matter."
• Plugs: Best covers of the week by Andy Khouri on Comics Alliance. Ron Regé Jr's The Cartoon Utopia: "This cover really makes me smile, and maybe gives me a sense of four-color spiritual well-being. But cartoon utopia looks more outdoorsy than I expected."
• Review: Page 45 enjoys the gentle pages of The Cartoon Utopia. Stephen L. Holland states, "Regé is back with a spiritual manifesto and ode to creativity: a singular, secular vision delivered with all the fervour of a religious sermon. It's a call not to arms but to peace and perception unshackled from the conditioning of ages, exhorting all to see new possibilities, infinite possibilities, so enabling one's full potential to be realised in both senses of the word."
• Review: Barack Hussein Obama by Steven Weissman is reviewed on Bookslut. Martyn Pedler says, "His Obama begins as a kind of smug, stoner everyman: telling 'your momma' jokes, discussing old movies with visiting dignitaries . . . Weissman's pages -- drawn in ballpoint into a moleskin notebook -- use a four-panel gag structure that makes the book immediately addictive."
• Review: Publishers Weekly takes on Barack Hussein Obama by Steven Weissman.". . . readers will likely have to be content with being one part giddy and three parts puzzled. . . Perhaps that's Weissman's point: that the farce of contemporary politics has the capacity to make one simultaneously giddy, confused, and disenchanted."
• Interview (audio): Speaking of Steven Weissman, Obama and the elections, he is interviewed on KPFK 90.7 FM's show Beneath the Surface.
• Review: Comics Worth Reading looks at Charlie Brown's Christmas Stocking by Charles Schulz. KC Carlson says, "Charlie Brown's Christmas Stocking is the perfect stocking stuffer for any Peanuts fan — which is probably most of the planet!"
• Review: Cartoonist Lilli Carré finds herself Boing-Boing-ed. Brian Heater describes Heads or Tails collection, "These strips, which originally in the pages of places like The Believer and Mome, find the artist dipping her toes into new pools, the sort of freedom afforded by the low commitments of the short story form, often to truly wonderful effect."
• Review: Booklist Online carves out a place in their hearts for Wallace Wood's Came the Dawn. Ray Olson writes, "This volume presenting all his horror and crime stories chronologically shows him refining what is at first a crude though powerful sense of mise-en-scène into one that is assured, highly detailed, and lightly caricatural."
• Review: Page 45 looks at The Lost Art of Ah Pook and Stephen L. Holland ponders "Malcom Mc Neill has taken the time to put this eye-frazzling book of art – some of it sequential – into context, for the work itself is very much lost. . . There are vast scenes of ancient ritual, carnal lust and very modern warfare transcending time just as they were always intended."
• Review: Booklist Online likes Walt Disney's Uncle Scrooge: Only a Poor Old Man by Carl Barks. Ian Chipman states, "from the bitter cold of the Klondike to the bottom of the Caribbean. . . Barks' comics are an absolute treasure that have aged remarkably well, and are finally getting wide-scale publication to introduce them to a new generation of readers."
• Review: Gene Ambaum of Unshelved happily views covers from Action! Mystery! Thrills!, edited by Greg Sadowski. "Beautiful full-color reproductions of unblemished comic book covers show the amazing art and the breadth of genres on the newsstands before Fredric Wertham screwed everything up in the 1950s. . . The colors are bright, and the art is just plain fun."
• Review: Comic Book Daily reviews Prince Valiant Volume 2: 1939-1940. Scott VanderPloeg write, "All of it beautifully drawn as only Hal Foster could. Each page is a visual feast that begs to be savoured."
• Review: Rod Lott of Bookgasm spends a long, loooong time checking out Sexytime. "[Editor Jacque Boyreau] has a knack for picking images; much like Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart and hardcore porn, Boyreau knows it when he sees it. And luckily, he shares it, this time from the visual-presentation experts of Fantagraphics Books — a match made in poster-art heaven."
• Interview (audio): One of our favorite creators, Ellen Forney, speaks to KUOW/NPR on bi-polar disorder, comics and her new work, Marbles.
• Plug: Jaime Hernandez will be at the Copenhagen Comics Fest in Copenhagen, Denmark in June of 2013. Mark them calendars!

Why Attend Homeschool Day at the Capitol?
By attending Day at the Capitol, you help ensure homeschooling freedoms by joining thousands of other homeschoolers at the rally; you are encouraged by being part of one of our nations largest homeschool events! You get to hear inspiring speakers from our state's elected leadership. You influence the state leaders to acknowledge and respect homeschooling accomplishments. Your students are trained in principles of Godly citizenship, leadership, and the U.S. Constitution, and both you and they learn how to make a difference for America's future.
"Posterity! You will never know how much it cost our present generation to preserve your freedom. I hope you will make good use of it." — John Quincy Adams
Top Ten Reasons to Attend
1. This is the most effective way to keep homeschooling free in Colorado. Our legislators need to meet us. They need to know that homeschooling produces some of the best educated young people, in a day where the decline in academic standards is pronounced almost everywhere else.
2. Standing for one hour on the west steps of the Capitol will consume less of our time and resources than court cases, arrests, and imprisonment.
3. Catch a little of the passion and vision for liberty and for homeschooling from those who have been on the front lines of the battle, like Concerned Parents of Colorado Director, Treon Goossen.
4. Over one thousand people on the steps of the capitol sends a resounding message to our legislators – and typically makes for the largest rally on the capitol steps each year. As a grass-roots movement, numbers are an effective way to impact our representatives. If you don't participate, my family will be the only family there (and seven of us won't make much of a statement).
5. After last election, the governorship and both houses in the Colorado legislature are controlled by the Democratic party (which is largely supported by the teacher unions that have clearly opposed homeschool freedoms). This is the first time it has happened in Colorado in 50 years.
6. You can turn the day into an educational field trip for your children, by touring the capitol, attending the planned events, and being introduced to the Colorado House or Senate.
7. "All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing." – Edmund Burke
8. Your children can participate in the Future Statesman program and satisfy the state requirement for "regular courses of instruction in the Constitution of the United States."
9. This event is free, although we do encourage donations.
10. By attending this event, you will be showing your support for the homeschooling freedoms that Colorado parents and children have enjoyed for more than 20 years.

Endurance font family
Designed by Steve Matteson in 2004
Endurance Pro™ Bold was designed by Steve Matteson to fill the need for a more elegant, less industrial-looking neo-grotesque sans serif design.ÿ The name Endurance lends itself to the fact that the typeface was designed to work well under extreme conditions from billboards to mobile phone screens. Endurance Pro™ Bold was designed with on-screen legibility as a key attribute, and with careful detailing for a more refined appearance in large sizes. Endurance Pro Bold has an extensive character set with WGL support (Greek, Cyrillic and Eastern European characters) to meet the needs of multinational companies and creative professionals who desire OpenType's typographic features (with old style figures, proportional figures, fractions, superiors and a slash zero).

Top 30 Rums Countdown # 22 – Dictador XO Perpetual
Posted by Arctic Wolf on December 3, 2012
According to the Dictador website, Dictador Rum is produced in Colombia South America, more exactly, on the Caribbean coast of Colombia at Cartagena de Indias City. The rum is named for Arango Y Ferro who was nicknamed 'Dictador' by the local population of Cartagena de Indias, in early Colombia (sometime after 1751) as he rose to prominence in the trade and commerce between the Spanish Colonies and Spain. Arango apparently fell in love with the local cane spirit and became an important producer of rum at that time.
The Dictador Perpetual is an elegant sipping rum and a very worthy addition to my Top 30 Rums in the World listing:
#22 Dictador XO Perpetual
This is one of those rare rums which seems to taste better every time I have another glass.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
