Sure, depending on the task, there are other libraries out there that might be better, but I'm not sure whether there's any great benefit to be gained by reworking HSO.

From what I understand, much of their stuff is software. Really a bad fit for open source ... Even if it does work as they advertise. Which I doubt.
Phoronix: Caustic Graphics Will Provide Linux Support
Caustic Graphics, a brand-new company to the computer graphics scene that hopes to compete with AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA when it comes to ray-tracing power, announced the CausticRT on Monday. The CausticRT is "the world's first massively accelerated ray-tracing system" and can be found in CausticOne, which is their first product and it promises to deliver ray-tracing performance that's reportedly 20 times faster than the modern computer...
From what I understand, much of their stuff is software. Really a bad fit for open source ... Even if it does work as they advertise. Which I doubt.
I really doubt these guys will be in business in a years time let alone long enough to actually have linux support. Cell cards for example have existed for a while and still are far and few and have never made it into the mainstream as have many other DSP cards both past and future. My guess is that they will pull a Physx, develop a tech and pray like hell someone buys them out in this day and age where only the financially suicidal invest in startup tech companies.
I also really doubt that some guys around can challenge ATI, Nvidia and Intel in a year.
Nvidia and ATI have more than 10 years of experience of graphics cards and 3D acceleration. I there was a magical solution to accelerate 200 times the current GPUs, I guess they would have use it !
Their accelerator doesn't look like it replaces a conventional GPU at all, but instead acts as a sort of "graphics accelerator accelerator" for raytracing and similarly complex operations, much like PhysX cards did for physics operations. Anyway, it's not clear to me that they intend to offer a consumer product; all their marketing text seems to be talking about content creation (render farms, prototyping complex 3D models/scenes, etc.).
As far as I know, none of the Cell card vendors have any interest in mainstream customers; they'd rather soak R&D types for 10x the cash per card that they could ever hope to get from a mainstream user.Originally Posted by deanjo
The ones that did say they were bringing out a mainstream implementation have already faded into the night but even in the renderfarm / research /etc arena they have made little to no impact. Until they are able to bring the product out in mass production in a cheap fashion ATI and NV have nothing to fear.
As far as not planing to cater to everyone that isn't exactly the impression they are trying to instill. If you hit their main page you will see referencing to gaming by the reviews they posted and if you watch the flash animation you may notice the "Rated E for Everyone" logo that implies that it is indeed meant for the mainstream consumer as well.

I guess you were wrong (on the first part at least ).
Not that they can't still disappear, but they're still here as of now.
Seems like they will be at the Mobile World Congress 2011 with ImgTec: http://www.caustic.com/company_events.php
Will be interesting to see how much further they have come in the circa 12 months since their latest videos were put of on their YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/CausticGraphics
Also, they have created an open ray tracing API called OpenRL (Open Ray Tracing Library), which they will try to get standardized through the Khronos group later this year. Looks exciting to me!

Four Color Fear strikes prismatic terror in the heart of comiXology | |
Written by Jen Vaughn | Filed under John Benson, Greg Sadowski, Four Color Fear, digital comics, comiXology | 17 Apr 2013 10:50 AM |
The book that has been sold-out twice in a row comes to you, dear reader, in digital form. Four Color Fear: Forgotten Horror Comics of the 1950s. The finest non-EC horror covers and stories of the pre-code era by artist perennials Jack Cole, Reed Crandall, George Evans, Frank Frazetta, Jack Katz, Al Williamson, Basil Wolverton, and Wallace Wood, collected in a robust and affordable volume. And by volume, we mean four. This book is SO BIG, SO HUGE that we had to break it up into four parts: CMYK for the printing colors Cyan (blue), Magenta, Yellow and Black or parts one, two, three, four.
Editors John Benson and Greg Sadowski have sifted through hundreds of rare books to cherry-pick the most compelling scripts and art, and they provide extensive background notes on the artists, writers, and companies involved in their creation. Digital restoration has been performed with subtlety and restraint, mainly to correct registration and printing errors, with every effort made to retain the flavor of the original comics, and to provide the reader the experience of finding a most delightful read in their dusty, creaky attic. Each part is only 6.99 for 80-something pages bound to terrify and keep you up all night long, glowing from your tablets thanks to comiXology.
"[Its] a wonderfully creepy hurtle through the exuberant, cheerfully gross and icky horror comics that prevailed in the golden, pre-Comics-Code era. ...[T]he art is brilliant: indistinct piles of slimy viscera, purple-green zombies, skull-faced vampires and demons, Satan in a dozen guises, witches and occult symbols, creatures from the eleven hells of the darkest mythos of the human spirit." – Cory Doctorow, Boing Boing

LEGAL GUEST BLOG -- SARA J. FAGNILLI Temper, temper! Anger management issues in the workplaceBy SARA J. FAGNILLI 4:30 am, November 21, 2012
It's a subject made for the movies! But, unlike its depiction in the 2003 film, Anger Management, treatment for anger management issues is very serious business. Haven't we all been in a work situation where someone loses their temper? Know the employee with a reputation as the "office screamer?" Sometimes it can even be a boss!

Road-legal Vmoto SCARTT bridges the gap between quad bike and SUV
Quad bikes offer big off-road thrills and go-anywhere versatility for cheap dollars, but they're not the safest things in the world to ride on the road. SUVs are popular for their comfort and safety on the highway, but most are pretty limited in their off-road abilities, and they're so expensive you're unlikely to feel too carefree about throwing them down a ravine trail. The Vmoto SCARTT sits somewhere in between; a little larger and wider than a quad bike, but with two seats, seatbelts, a roll cage and genuine roadgoing ability to match its featherlight, fishtailing offroad giggle factor. The manufacturer's hoping to sell these 500cc practical fun machines for around the quarter of the price of a typical SUV. Oh, and wait til you see the super-sexy hybrid-electric sportster version.

Nope, I can't. And I am fine with it.
Two times now that you imply that you are smarter than other persons. Fine, prove it, looking forward to see your contributions.
If you can do better go ahead and do it. For now you are just a smart ass insulting others anonymously on a web forum. I doubt that we will see anything from you, because you have just proven that you aren't that smart: Insulting the people producing the software you rely on. Also, while we are at it, use some of your time to improve your English skills, someone as smart as you shouldn't have many problems with that.
I would have liked to get it to the non technical crowed as well
You post on a public forum. That is as good as asking for opinions. You will have to live with the fact that people will call you out on what you post.
Actually, yes, you need to improve your English. crymsonpheonix made a sarcastic statement, which, if you would have gotten it, clearly states that he thinks that the fix will be backported. At that point you called the Mesa devs stupid, just because your English isn't good enough to get sarcasm. That you still don't get it and think insulting me with the same shit you posted before but just in Portuguese would make you look smarter indicates that you really are even less smart than I have initially thought.if you think is a smart move not fix a issue, you are not a smart person. i dont need to improve my English,
By the way, having Portuguese as your native language is no excuse to not learn other languages properly, maybe just try to insult other people on the web a little bit less of your time and use the now free time to learn something.
Maybe, but Debian has an article about that LTS even on official Debian blog

On mission for Central title, Pirates seek sweep
Wild Card-leading Bucs start Liriano opposite Arrieta at Wrigley Field
Pittsburgh is certainly taking care of business.
While the Reds faltered at home Tuesday night, the Pirates continued their dominance of the Cubs, putting Pittsburgh in position to go for a three-game sweep Wednesday afternoon at Wrigley Field.
The Bucs remain two games behind St. Louis in the National League Central, but lead the Reds by one game for the top NL Wild Card spot.
Pittsburgh and Cincinnati convene for a season-ending three-game series beginning Friday at Great American Ball Park, while the Cardinals will host the Cubs. Although the Cardinals, Pirates and Reds already have clinched postseason berths, the division is still up for grabs.
Pirates left-hander Francisco Liriano gets the ball Wednesday at Wrigley Field, where he has allowed two runs on six hits in 16 innings over two starts this season. Depending on how the next few days shake out, Liriano -- the club's most consistent pitcher this year -- could conceivably be in line to start on three days' rest on Sunday, should the division be on the line.
As of now, however, Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said that isn't an option, preferring instead to have Liriano ready to start the club's first playoff game.
"I'm feeling good with how our rotation lines up," Hurdle said.
Right-hander Jake Arrieta makes his final start of the season in the Cubs' last home game of the year -- a home slate that has seen Chicago lose 50 games at the Friendly Confines for the first time in club history.
Arrieta hopes to build off his last outing, when he tossed seven innings of three-hit ball against the Brewers, as he looks forward to next year, his first full season with the Cubs. Manager Dale Sveum said Arrieta is "penciled in" as a rotation candidate for 2014.
Pirates: Confines friendly to Marte
Starling Marte's game-winning homer Monday was just another in a string of successful games for the outfielder in Chicago. Marte's 23 hits at Wrigley Field since 2012 are the most in the Majors for a visiting player in that span, during which he is hitting .354.
• Neil Walker has homered in four of his last six games, tying his career high in homers at 14. The last Pirates second baseman with more than 14 homers in a season was Warren Morris, with 15 in 1999.
• Pittsburgh has homered in seven straight games, its longest streak since July 19-25, which also was a seven-gamer.
Cubs: Going deep
Chicago's 101 home runs at Wrigley Field are the club's most at home since hitting 106 in 2008, and only the eighth time the Cubs have reached the century mark in Chicago.
• First baseman Anthony Rizzo has 63 extra-base hits, the most for a Cubs left-handed hitter since Corey Patterson totaled the same in 2004.
Worth noting
• Around 1 p.m. CT before Wednesday's game, Cubs players and coaches will throw about 1,000 autographed baseballs to attendees at Wrigley Field, while the front-office staff will deliver signed baseballs to the upper deck and back of the terrace level.
An autograph guide for illegible signatures will be available at the Cubs Authentics kiosk and Fan Services booth.
• The Pirates' 12 wins against the Cubs this season are their most since going 14-4 against Chicago in 1990.

Senate Passes Procedural Hurdle For Extending Jobless Benefits
October 27, 2009 - by Donny ShawAfter a month of delay, the Senate this afternoon approved a motion to move forward on their bill to extend unemployment insurance benefits (H.R. 3548). The motion to overcome Republican objections and proceed to an official debate of the bill was approved by a vote of 87-13. Full roll call details on OpenCongress forthcoming. Full roll call details here.
Click here to see a list of the 13 Republicans who voted "no."
The bill under discussion would extend benefits for people who have exhausted them by 14 weeks in all states and by an additional 6 percent in states with unemployment rates above 8.5 percent.
The House approved a scaled-down version of the bill on September 22nd by a vote of 331-83. Since then, Senate Democrats have tried at least four time to move the bill quickly through the Senate under unanimous consent agreements, but Republicans rejected the agreements each time. They wanted the bill to be brought up under regular order and fully debated so they could offer amendment, some of which are totally unrelated to the unemployment issue. Not wanting to have the bill larded up with unrelated political baggage, Majority Leader Sen. Harry Reid [D, NV] kept trying to broker a deal with the Republicans to let the bill through under unanimous consent. Last Wednesday, Reid gave up and filed a cloture petition on the bill in order to force the issue to the Senate floor.
Today's vote on cloture is a big step forward for the bill, but it doesn't guarantee final passage. The bill will now be opened up for amendments and any poison pills – such as the Republicans' E-Verify and ACORN amendments – could derail the underlying bill if they get added. Republicans could hold this pre-debate period open for up to 30 hours, but they will probably allow the bill to move to a debate sooner.
A bipartisan group of senators had been planning to add an amendment to the bill to extend the $8,000 homebueyrs tax credit and a business tax break from the stimulus bill that is set to expire, but news reports indicate that they are backing away from the amendment and will let the unemployment bill move forward as a stand-alone bill. If Democrats can fend off any Republican amendments that come up for a vote, they will be able to send a clean version of their bill to the House for a quick vote on agreeing to the Senate amendment. Then it's off to the President who is expected to sign it into law immediately.

Yeah, the snouts finally came up out of the trough and noticed everyone else's was empty. Not that they give a damned about their fellow mankind, they just don't want us peasants coming after their supply. Safety in numbers.
Check out http://www.bls.gov/web/laumstrk.htm
8.5% and above are the ONLY states that will be getting the extension. Dont be fools. There is a legitimate reason why there is opposition to this bill! It is unbalanced and unfair!!!
If you're state is one of those that is below 8.5%, you're not getting the extension.
You people are so selfish that you dont realize the millions of other people who will not get the extension if this bill is passed! How about YOU people get your heads out of YOUR asses and think of others BESIDES yourself!!!
Chew on that!
You are wrong and about 4 weeks behind. The house bill was amended and the current Senate bill extends benefits for 14 weeks for all states, and an additional 6 weeks (for a total of 20) for states with rates at or above 8.5%. To repeat:
All states: total 14 weeks
States at or above 8.5%: Total 20 weeks (14 + 6) -
you are wrong. They extension is for all 50 states at 14 weeks. The states with an average over 8.5 % will recieve an additional 6 weeks on to of that.
We are thinking of others, why don't you better inform yourself before you think that people are being selfish . . . you my friend are behaving like a jackass.
I have been watching the senate in tv and I never dreamed this bill would take so long. Thank god for the Senators who have been working thier butts off on the floor trying to get this bill passed.I will keep watching and you can be sure that i will never vote for anyone who votes against this bill. This is the first time in my life i have ever collected unemployment. i could always find a job before the unemployment check was approved and mailed. Times are bad. i just hope i can find a job soon.
I will never vote again period and those Senators who are "fighting" to get this passed are not doing as much as you think. I am 68 and have never collected UI either and you would think that I am the lowest part of society to hear people talk. I am a college graduate with a BA and have NEVER had trouble getting a job. I have had long term jobs that lasted years but now I can't even get a maid's job because I am "over qualified". What kind of crap is that?? All I want to do is pay my rent, utilities and put gas in a car that I will have to sell by mid-Nov. if nothing happens in favor of REAL Americans. Pelosi is a piece of crap too. ALl she wants is the glory she can get by acting like she did the healthcare all by herself. If she had any backbone at all she would insist on the extension issue being handled. She actually has that power.
From what I just read unemployment may not be actually addressed until mid-Dec. because the idiot Republicans say that is when ALL benefits will end. Yup…and that is when the number of homeless and indigent people will be in the MILLIONS and MILLIONS. I will be shocked if it is re-addressed to benefit any of us soon and I need a shock that's for sure. Right now they are discussing the Guantanamo issues, why Lieberman is disappointed in things and other really stupid things that can wait forever. That time and energy can be put into the unemployment issue. Instead of stepping up Obama stepped down!!! Nice going Obama!!
Oh yes….and for those of you who think most of us sit on our asses all day talking on these sites? I applied for 8 jobs this morning and went to interviews. I do this every day and all I get back is "We are NOT hiring at this time". Then why the hell do you have an ad in the paper Even employment agencies aren't helping. I have signed on with them too and have tried to go back to school. Answer to that??? I am told that there are NO more funds available.
"From what I just read unemployment may not be actually addressed until mid-Dec. because the idiot Republicans say that is when ALL benefits will end."
hey dartcanyon, where exactly did you read that? can you provide a link to the source of information, if possible? thanks!
Hey Humdinger. You must be from back East. Used to say that all the time growing up in Maine. On the Open Congress site there was an article about the healthcare issue not being done until mid-late Dec. and I think that's the same site that quoted one of the idiot Senators about the UI benefits won't run out until the end of the year. The assumption, and unfortunately this is a rare time I believe an assumption, by the news is that because the healthcare issue won't be resolved until Dec., and the fact that Washington is concentrating on that before unemployment, more than likely UI benefits won't move up the notch and go ahead of the healthcare bill.
Humdinger….You have to read thru the crap but that info is there. It's like crawling thru mud but we're talking about Washington here. I certainly hope I'm wrong but I don't think a damn tihng but idiotic talk will take place until mid-late Nov. if then. As of Monday hundreds of thousands more drop of the UI benefits roles and I'm sure the media and Washington will take the fact that we are no longer listed anywhere as a sigh things are getting better. What a bunch of morons.
That's all we can do at this point Humdinger.
Senator Kyl said "The benefits haven't run out yet"… What is he talking about, Everyone's benefits? My benefits ran out in September. Hundreds of thousands have ALREADY RUN OUT!
They haven't gotten their asses up about anything. This morning reports are that the US is gving money to the Taliban in Afghanistan to try and get them to our side and also that a business in England is profiting from US funds. ALL of those monies could be used to help Americans out of work. Also….the news is reporting that continuing jobless claims are down and that is good they say. BS…it simply means that more of us are falling off the rolls because our benefits have run out. How stupid do they think we all are? It is the Republicans who are issuing the wrong stastics so they will have more reason to deny us an extension.
ANd Obama just made another of his lame appearances and of course he didn't have balls enough to talk about unemployment and helping Americans because he couldn't care less either. Don't get your hopes up folks because NOTHING has changed. Republican CNN needs to be shut down. They and other Republican stations barely even mention this anymore. Tells you who's corner they are in sitting behind their desks making 6 figure salaries. Healthcare can wait. It's been like this for many, many years so shelve it for a week or so and get back to helping Americans out of work survive. I am a realist and cannot read into something that is not there. When I hear, and I doubt it will happen anytime soon, that the unemployment extension has been approved and that Obama has signed it and that our "check is in the mail" then and only then will I believe a damn thing Washington is saying. I've been around a loooong time and am not duped by their lies and BS ways.
so when will we actually see this money start coming in to our depleted bank accounts?How much longer do they actually need It seems pretty simple to me,,,Are they going to give us what is due or not??? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE get this done ASAP washington
E-mail your Senators
(EXAMPLE)I am writing to URGE you to TAKE SWIFT ACTION on legislation HR 3548. I am asking you to DO EVERYTHING you can to MAKE SURE A VOTE on the extension happens BEFORE THE END OF THIS WEEK! Most of us depending on jobless extensions have WORKED ALL OF OUR LIVES, and are desperate to return to work. I haven't had a check for more than 7 weeks! I have to get food from a local charitable food bank. I have just 3 MORE WEEKS TO PAY THE UTILITY BILLS. AFTER THAT IT WILL BE LIGHTS OUT, NO HEAT, NO GAS FOR THE CAR, NO CAR INSURANCE, NO INTERNET, NO PHONE.
HOW WILL I BE ABLE TO FIND A JOB? The way things are going in the senate, they will probably pull off some kind of Einstein move to put the extension on the back burner again, so they can argue on what to rename an old warship, turned into a restaurant or museum or something more urgent. Hey maybe they can open it up as a hotel for the homeless! Since they apparently don't remember WHO put their fat asses in office!!! I would bet the "nay" sayers are probably at the twilight of their political careers, but haven't realizes it yet.

Great hiking boots
"Size might be a tad small: My boyfriend usually wears size 11.5, but size 12 here is perfect for him. He said they are very comfortable, and they look durable. Can't wait to use them on a hike later this year"

My Husband Loves them
"I bought these as a gift for my husband, he loves them. They are comfortable and versatile. He can get away with wearing them with jeans to work, or with his carhartt work pants to work around the house."

Big Dave loves 'em!
"I just found DSW and made a couple of purchases but I wanted to comment on this particular boot which I purchased at a retail store about three years ago. I have owed many types of boot from various manufacturers and this is BY FAR the most comfortable! I feel as though I'm wearing a comfy running shoe not a boot. I use these mainly for construction work and they're great!"

Catch of the Day: Creative Seafood Recipes
Walleye Wild Rice Cakes with Wasabi Dressing [1]
Cindi Rockwell of Berkley, Michigan, says this recipe, which has two signature Minnesota ingredients, was inspired by the resort her grandparents owned there.
Pepper-Lime Shrimp and Grits [5]
Mexican flavors give a fresh twist to this classic Southern dish. Best of all, each serving has only 382 calories!
Crispy Beer Batter Fried Walleye with Mango Sweet-and-Sour Sauce [9]
Fresh-fruit sauce brings a lively taste of the islands to down-home beer-battered fish.
Crispy Beer Batter Fried Walleye with Mango Sweet-and-Sour Sauce [10]
Cider-Brined Coho Salmon with Dijon Cream [13]
Freshwater salmon soaks up the flavor of cider-tarragon marinade created by Sally Sibthorpe of Shelby Township, Michigan. She finishes the elegant main dish with a cream sauce scented with aniselike tarragon.
Crabmeat-Stuffed Whitefish [17]
Seasoned crabmeat and marsala sauce complement Lake Michigan whitefish in this recipe from The Inn at Kristofer's in Sister Bay, Wisconsin.
Smoked Fish Spread [21]
Smoked fish brings a wonderful heartiness to this creamy appetizer. The recipe is from Chicago's "Fish Guy," Bill Dugan. Top chefs and seafood newbies come to Bill's Fish Guy Market for fresh fish and advice. "My calling is to make sure the simple pleasures of life -- quality and taste -- don't get away," Bill says.
Try the Fish Guy's Smoked Fish Spread on crackers or bread, or scoop it up with bell pepper wedges.
Smoked Fish Spread [22]
Finfish and Vegetables in Papillote [25]
Cooking in paper—en papillote—is a simple, elegant way to prepare fish. When the package is opened, an aromatic puff of steam escapes.
Bill Dugan suggests that beginners try this simple method: Sprinkle a fresh 4- to 5-ounce portion of fish with salt, wrap in a parchment bag and steam in a vegetable steamer for 5 to 8 minutes. Serve au jus or with a splash of vinaigrette. He also suggests baking delicate fish 15 minutes in a parchment bag with fresh herbs.
The Finfish and Vegetables in Papillote recipe uses fresh vegetables as well as herbs to create a fragrant main dish.
Grilled Fish with Moroccan Vinaigrette [29]
This flaky white fish looks like a gourmet dish when served over a bed of couscous and dressed with mesclun (a mix of salad greens) and colorful radish slivers.
Lobster Roll Salad Sandwich [33]
Here's the Chicago Fish Guy's take on a traditional New England lobster roll. It's like a lobster BLT, but Bill Dugan uses pancetta instead of bacon slices.
Pancetta is a little like bacon, except it's cured with salt, spices and garlic. You'll find pancetta at Italian food shops or at the deli in large supermarkets.
Lobster Gazpacho [37]
We like the chunky consistency of this colorful and thick fresh, cold soup. It makes the lobster meat go a long way without seeming skimpy. This recipe is from Bill Dugan of Chicago.
Curried Coconut Shrimp and Noodles [41]
This pasta-based seafood dish features a flavor-packed broth of ginger, curry and coconut milk. The tender noodles soak it up.
Great Lakes Salmon Chowder [45]
Asparagus slices add color, and the dill and lemon zest add fresh flavor to salmon that's packed with protein and heart-healthy.
Shrimp and Tilapia Ceviche [49]
Ceviche (seh-VEESH) is a Latin American dish of raw fish and seafood marinated in acidic citrus juices until it turns opaque. In this recipe, you'll cook the shrimp and fish in boiling water for a minute (to avoid any problems with using fish that's not perfectly fresh), cool it, and marinate in the original citrus juices, coconut milk and tequila.
Corn-Roasted Walleye [53]
Use corn husks to package your fish fillets in this main dish. Roasting the corn salsa intensifies its flavor. Serve with tortilla chips to scoop up any leftover salsa on your plate.
Grilled Salmon with Pistachio-Basil Butter [57]
A mixture of fresh basil, pistachios, lime juice, garlic and butter tops easy grilled salmon. Store leftover pistachio-basil butter in your refrigerator for up to a week; toss with hot pasta or spread on toasted French bread.
Mexican Shrimp Tostadas [61]
Shrimp flavored with lime top lettuce, black beans and tomatoes in this quick-and-easy main dish.
Golden Trout [65]
Fresh mushrooms and asparagus add seasonal flavor to this skillet-cooked specialty from Grant Street Bar and Grill in Peru, Indiana.
Golden Trout [66]
North Shore Fish Cakes [69]
Every self-respecting North Shore cook makes a version of this traditional old Scandinavian main dish. The father of Grand Marais, Minnesota, native Nancy Lindquist brought his recipe with him from Norway. These tasty fish cakes are based on that recipe. A touch of nutmeg flavors the moist-on-the-inside and crisp-on-the-outside patties.
Willis Family Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp [73]
Peel and devein 1 pound of large fresh shrimp in shells (about 16), leaving tails intact. Rinse; pat dry. Using 8 slices of Niman Ranch Bacon or other bacon (halved crosswise), wrap each shrimp in a piece of bacon, securing with a wood toothpick (neck to tail in a half-moon). To grill, place shrimp on lightly greased rack of uncovered grill over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, or until bacon is crisp and shrimp turn opaque, turning once. (For gas grill, cover and grill as directed.) If you like, serve with your favorite barbecue sauce. Makes 16.
Browned-Butter Skate [76]
Skate wing, orange roughy, flounder or catfish fillets work well in this recipe from Grand Traverse Resort and Spa near Traverse City Michigan.
Browned-Butter Skate [77]
Salt-Crusted Shrimp with Greek Dipping Sauce [80]
"This dish captures all the sun-kissed flavors of the Greek Islands: lemon, garlic, and oregano," says Chicago grilling expert Elizabeth Karmel. "It's become a staple when I entertain."
Honey-Bourbon Salmon [84]
Although this recipe takes very little hands-on cooking time, be sure to allow an hour to marinate the salmon so it absorbs all the flavors of the sweet-and-salty marinade.
Honey-Bourbon Salmon [85]
Season's Best Shrimp Parmesan [88]
Spoon this creamy, rich shrimp sauce over rice or pasta. It's a specialty from Cafe Beignet in St. Charles, Missouri.
Poached Salmon With Shrimp Sauce [92]
This special-occasion dish combines tender salmon with a rich cream sauce.

It's kind of funny that the only skaters who landed five different triples finished 5th and 6th. Wagner landed three different triples, the others four.

Congrats Mao ! Happy for her.
Kiira-Loved her performance even though mistakes... elegance,maturity..
Wagner- Really well choreographed program.Before that hard fall She really did great. After the fall she did well still. I was impressed with her.
Gao- I like this program & music. Looking forward to a good performance at Nationals.

Mao's second Loop and Flip were also underrotated, you could even see it without slow-motion.
Can't wait to see Koster and Kim who do triple jumps.
The only triples Mao got full credit for were 3Lo, 3F & 3Lz (e). This is becoming intolerable (not that any specific skater won, but that the only thing a lady has to win a senior event is execute 2 different triples correctly ( flutz doesn't count due to it being INcorrect)).
I think Kostners success without a lutz and with one 3 flip is what really sparked and encouraged this war on triple jumps that Mao is now taking advantage of. Triples era in ladies may be ending or at least more than 4 triples. It's so pathetic and the sport is over and really worthless.
So proud of Ashley. What a courageous young lady after that hard fall on dbl axel. Her conditioning is superb. I'm kind of glad it happened now. As we know she can't be perfect all the time. Hope that's out of the way now and peak at National and World. She will have her chance for redemption against Mao at 4CC.
Oh I know she was the best in Sochi.
But don't you think that it is a PROBLEM? That the senior ladies are so technically INEPT that a skater who can execute only 2 different triple jumps correctly can come and win just b/c she managed to not fall?
I'm not dinging Mao herself, but the general trend I'm seeing in ladies' competitions. It is disappointing to see programs with very low technical content.

No she doesn't, not even close. The 10 pts difference between her TES and PCS sends out a powerful signal and the reasons were already discussed in the SP thread yesterday - many of us knew no amount of 3/3 will get Elizavetha anywhere near the top unless she starts to actually skate like with a complete package.

Welcome disc golfer! You can login or create an account.
Questions? Call us: (785) 258-2494
The Innova Sonic is a putt and approach disc golf disc that is understable. Introduced in October 2007 and based on the Hero 235 canine freestyle disc which is also a great disc for kids to learn to throw. The Sonic has a comfortable low profile grip with great thumb traction. As a putter, the Sonic has a nice straight flight and sticks well in the chains. The Sonic also makes a versatile short range approach and escape disc when thrown sidearm or backhand. For longer approaches, it has a slow predictable turn and likes to land flat for very few roll-aways. This disc is very beginner friendly.
It is a great choice for beginners, short to medium approach shots, tailwind upshots, putting, and jump putts.
DX discs are affordably priced and provide an excellent grip in all types of weather conditions. Over time, DX discs will take on new and varied flight characteristics that stem from their use. They start out more overstable, but with use will match the flight ratings. With continued use, they'll eventually become more understable than the ratings.
About Color and Availability - Pictured above are some available DX colors. This model may not be available in all of these colors. Likewise, each weight range may not be available in all colors. Therefore we ask you to list and prioritize your color preferences and to give us guidance if the color or weight range you want happens to not be available. Feel free to contact us if you need more specific info.
Speed 1, Glide 2, Turn -4, Fade 0
Available in DX plastic, weights 150 Class to 177
"A great utility disc that has been a part of my golf bag for years. I use it for long putts and short upshots, especially on very hilly terrain where it is very important to land flat. The Sonic is very easy to throw. It will fly straight for most of its flight, with very little fade." - Brian Schweberger
If you are looking for a disc with
more Glide, try the Classic Aviar
more Turn, try the Mamba
more Fade, try the Aviar
Other Speed 1 discs include the Birdie, Polecat and EDGE Polecat.

After fatal Glenarden fire, fire chief urges use of smoke detectors
Friday - 2/22/2013, 4:53am EST
WASHINGTON - Prince George's County firefighters are stressing the importance of a working smoke detector following a fire that killed two young girls and their father Thursday.
The 36-year-old father -- along with 4- and 8-year-old girls -- died after a Thursday morning fire in Glenarden, Md. EMS crews were able to resuscitate an 11-year-old girl, who reportedly was in grave condition.
Investigators say there was not a working smoke detector in the home, and firefighters are asking the public to help send an important message: Get one.
"You can buy the most inexpensive ones for as little as five bucks," says Prince George's County Fire Chief Marc Bashoor.
Bashoor also says it's important to install the smoke detector right away, rather than putting it off. He encourages everyone to check with friends, family and neighbors after they've installed their own, to make sure loved ones are protected.
Bashoor says his crew will come and install a smoke detector at no charge.
"If people need it, I'd rather give it to them than have it be an argument over who can afford it or who can't afford it," he says.
To obtain a free smoke alarm, Prince George's County residents can call 301- 864-SAFE (7233).

Suppose I throw a rock through a store owner's window. You admonish me for this act of vandalism. But I reply that I have actually done a good deed.
The store owner will now have to employ someone to haul the broken glass away and someone else, perhaps, to clean up afterward. Then, the order of a new glass pane will create work and wages for the glassmaker. Plus, someone will have to install it. In short, my act of vandalism created jobs and income for others.
The French economist, Frédéric Bastiat called this type of reasoning the "fallacy of the broken window." All the resources employed to remove the broken glass and install a new pane, he said, could have been employed to produce something else. Now they will not be. So society is not better off from my act of vandalism. It is worse off — by one pane of glass.
But there is a new type of Keynesian (to be distinguished from Keynes himself) that rejects the economist's answer. Wasteful spending can actually be good, they argue. If so, they will love what happens in health care.
By some estimates one of every three dollars spent on health care is unnecessary and therefore wasteful. ObamaCare's "wellness exams" for Medicare enrollees — so touted during the last election — is an example. Millions of taxpayer dollars will be spent on this service, yet there is no known medical benefit. Similarly, ObamaCare is encouraging all manner of preventive care — by requiring no deductibles or copayments — which is not cost effective.

The reason for this is simply because there's not a whole lot id Tech 4 has to offer that other open-source engines don't already have. The previous id engines are better understood by the community, and many of them have already been upgraded to match or exceed id Tech 4 in terms of graphics and performance. The community-extended engines also generally have better cross-platform support.
Even if you ignore the other engines having a head start, id Tech 4 has its own inherent disadvantages as well. For starters, it's huge: at more than a half million lines of code, it's 2x as big as ioQuake3, 3x as big as Qfusion, 3.5x as big as DarkPlaces, 4.3x as big as CRX, and 4.9x as big as Quake2World.
If you wanted to start a brand new game from scratch using an id Tech engine, and you didn't want to use any of the community engines, id Tech 4 would probably be the best choice. But existing games don't really have any reason to switch, and for new games, the id Tech engines are going out of fashion. Unity, Unreal, and Source have largely taken over what used to be a largely Quake-dominated modding scene.
For that reason, I predict that the only open-source games we'll see using id Tech 4 are Doom 3, Quake 4, PREY, ET:QW, and so on (depending on which ones get open-sourced.) Open-sourcing id Tech 4 was a good way for id Software to keep existing games alive for decades to come, but I don't think we'll see any new long-lasting open-source games with that engine.

Wow! Love this tiny wonder.
I've always loved Henry Kloss's work and Tivoli is definitely carrying on the top notch audio experience. I keep mine in the kitchen and honestly, it has so much presence that I rarely use my big stereo anymore. I just bought another, so that's how much I like it.

It's water, water everywhere in Fermanagh. This is a county tailor-made for anglers, explorers or those who simply love messing about on boats
Fermanagh is a county defined by water – one-third of it is covered by this pristine liquid. But this lakelands region has plenty to explore on dry land too, from stately houses to Cuilcagh Mountain and the echoing chambers of the Marble Arch Caves.
Fermanagh is home to Europe's longest network of waterways: 435 miles of rivers, canals and lakes that combine to make the perfect waterworld. You can fish (the lakes are world renowned for winter roach and pike). You can wake-board and water-ski. Or you can simply kick back and soak it all up.
Lough Erne is the largest in this maze of lakes. It's a vast swelling in the River Erne that holds 154 islands – including Devenish Island, home to one of Northern Ireland's finest monastic sites – and is pinched in the middle by the bustling town of Enniskillen.

Enniskillen splits the great lake in two, dividing it into Upper and Lower Lough Erne. It used to be the seat of Fermanagh's powerful chieftains, the Maguires, who kept their own private navy of 1,500 boats to patrol the expansive waters.
Their Enniskillen Castle was the perfect place from which to spot approaching troublemakers – though today it houses the Fermanagh County Museum and the regimental museum of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers.
More recent residents include literary greats, Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett, who attended Enniskillen's famous Portora Royal School. They weren't true Enniskilliners, however – for that honor, locals say you must be born "between the bridges" on the town's core island: the Inis Ceithleann from which it takes its name.
And don't miss the mile-long Main Street, a street that changes name six times as you walk!
Fermanagh is also home to Cuilcagh Mountain, a 665m peak which, on a clear day, offers views stretching from the Irish Sea to the Atlantic Ocean. Its distinctive shape – an abrupt plateau with flanks of steep cliffs – is the result of erosion in the limestone landscape, a geological wonderland and a Unesco-designated Geopark.
As well as hiking the hills, moors and forests above ground (not to mention the Palladian piles of Florence Court and Castle Coole), visitors can explore this unique geology underground with a tour of the Marble Arch Caves.
Beginning with a subterranean boat ride, and ending in vast caverns formed 650 million years back in time, the netherworld of chambers and passageways is the perfect way to get under Fermanagh's skin.
Via the water, naturally.

Yea but Mattel does this all the time and they like to keep people in the dark unlike...Cough...Hasbro...Cough!
And concerts are different you have an idea on what songs they play but at least you KNOW!
And with the 2002 line you knew what was coming why change that now??
Oh, that's right because we know who is coming in Marvel Legends wave 3 & 4 and we know who is coming in the Star Wars line in the 4th quarter of this year... except we don't. Hasbro likes to reveal those things at SDCC just like Mattel. I have no idea why you think other companies are any different.

I ask myself, what has He-Man changed in the past? What are the consequences for present time besides the knowledge how to defeat the Snakemen?
If He-Man helps King Grayskull & He-Ro in the Ultimate Battleground, how it end before He-Man traveled through time?
Im most concerned about the lack of a character in this epic battle , and that is Battle Lion ..... Im a huge fan, but I dont know everything. I cant say ive seen every 200x episode, read all the printed media or even remember all the Filmation cartoons(but am rewatching them all with my sons!) I never watched She - Ra but plan to now, and know even less about NA storyline. I didnt even know who Veena was before she was mentioned here!
So Ive been drooling over these panels since they were reveiled earlier ( i was actually online reading the thread when it got pulled! ) And despite the huge uproar it has caused between some memebrs I couldnt believe noone mentioned that Grayskull's Battle Lion was not to be seen! (unless i missed it anyhow. sorry if i did!)
About Battle Lion, perhaps he will be rescued by King Grayskull later in life? I don't know. It would have been cool to see him in the comic though! We saw the dinosaurs.
Take part in Illumina Day! Let people know who she is and help get her in MOTUC.
You can join the Illumina Facebook page here!
Seeing these sketches today and reading MISSILE-TOE's freaking awesome panel by panel break down of them makes me realize how media starved I am for MOTU! I hope there is someway there can be more MINI comics in the future! Or any comics or a cartoon! Bring it on!
Click on Amazon or Barnes and Noble for a free sample of my first book, Paradigm Shift Saga: Malediction!
A short story of monsters and magic!
The MYP Episode, The Powers Of Grayskull, would take place a little while after this 1st ultimate battleground. With that in mind, maybe King Grayskull hasn't met Battle Lion yet. As the mini comic is so small (8 pages) I think they had to cram a lot in it, and maybe Battle Lion was somewhere else that day, off on another mission...but I'm sure he'll fit fine in the MOTUC canon (and prob be released as a beast figure at some point I'd guess, cause he's cool!)
Also, I don't know if you are aware of this, but the HE-RO SON OF HE-MAN arc has what looks like a BATTLE LION in it too! (but this one is blue)

The attributes below allow you to narrow your selection based on broader terms such as ADA (ADA Compliant Tubs) and Apron Front (Skirted, Three-Wall Alcove Tubs).
The first measurement given in product titles. If you imagine yourself laying down inside a tub, length measures the head-to-toe dimension.
The second measurement given in product titles. If you imagine yourself laying down inside a tub, width measures the shoulder-to-shoulder dimension.
If there is a particular brand you are interested in, you may select it here.
Please select from the list below for the color (tub finish) that will best suit your decor needs.
Note: The following information applies to Drop-In whirlpool tubs only. If you are ordering an Alcove tub, you do not need to worry about drain or pump placement, just be sure to order the correct drain placement (right or left) using the tub skirt as the tub's front. Drop-In tubs, however, do not have a tub skirt, making clarification of the tub front necessary. People commonly think that because Drop-Ins do not have a skirt, that they are reversible, however this is only true for Soaking and Air tubs where an access panel is not necessary. But for Whirlpool tubs, you will need to match the pump location to your access panel. This is achieved by designating the tub drain as the tub front. Notice how this affects the pump locations in the examples below and be sure to order accordingly.
Bathtub pricing is widely varied. Soaking tubs start around $400, while Combination Air / Whirlpool tubs can top $7000. When budgeting for tubs, we encourage you to take some time to consider the fact that although you may not use your current tub very often, once replaced, new tubs often times become the bathroom center piece. One of the more common bathroom remodel regrets we hear: "I wish I had gotten a better tub." Don't make the same mistake - An extra $500-$1000 may sound like a lot, but can be the tipping point between good and excellent.
This section allows you to tub shapes. This can be particularly helpful for those replacing existing tubs.
This section allows you to filter your results by shopping attributes. For example, clicking on "In Stock" will remove all out-of-stock products from the results.
Please select from the list below if there was a particular material you were interested in. Note: Most acrylic tubs have a fiberglass reinforced underbelly.

Dickey looks to find control in finale vs. Lester
Pair of aces battle in last of three-game set between Toronto, Boston
The Blue Jays will wrap up their six-game homestand against American League East teams on Sunday when they host the Red Sox at Rogers Centre. Boston has taken the first two games of the season series between the division rivals.
Toronto's R.A. Dickey will head to the mound in search of his first win since April 5. Since then, Dickey has gone 0-2 over three starts, issuing 13 walks in 13 1/3 innings to bring his season total to 18, tied for the most in the Major Leagues. The knuckleballer threw a six-plus-inning no-decision in the Blue Jays' 9-3 win over Baltimore in his last start, striking out six.
Dickey has repeatedly said that as someone who's traditionally a slow starter, he expects to settle into a groove as the season moves on.
"There's a consistent pattern that's emerging where I feel like I'm an All-Star for the first four or five innings of a ball game, then I get to pitches 75 to 100 and it's like I'm a different human being out there," Dickey said following his last outing. "I'm trying to figure out what that's about physically, but there are a lot of positives. I felt since the Yankee game I've been really close to being consistent, but I haven't been able to put a full game together yet."
Boston will respond with ace Jon Lester, who was shaky in his last start, giving up 11 hits over 4 2/3 innings against the Yankees. Heading into their three-game series against Toronto, the Red Sox were 10-13, and sat at the bottom of the division. By Sunday, they improved to 12-13.
"I know everybody in here is busting their butt to do their best to get on a good run and put a full game together, whether it be pitching or defense or offense, whatever it may be," said Lester after his last start. "I hate saying it, but we've got a long ways to go and we're going to figure it out on both sides of the baseball, and we'll be there -- we'll be fine."
Blue Jays: Diaz gets his ring
Infielder Jonathan Diaz received his 2013 World Series ring prior to Saturday's contest. Needless to say, it was a dream come true.
"There are guys who have played so long in the big leagues that don't have one, and here I am sitting here with one. It's almost like a dream," he said.
Diaz earned the ring as a member of the 2013 World Series champion Red Sox, with whom he played five games before being sent to Triple-A Pawtucket in his only season with the team.
As for where he'll store his most prized possession, Diaz said it'll be locked up tight.
"I'm going to put it away, probably in a safe deposit box," he said. "I'm not sure how I'll get it back to the States. I might have my wife take it back."
Red Sox: Pierzynski says hitting against Buehrle 'weird'
A.J. Pierzynski is familiar with catching Toronto left-hander Mark Buehrle, as the two were teammates with the White Sox for seven years. Hitting against him, however, is another story.
That's why when the former batterymates faced off against each other in Boston's 8-1 win over the Blue Jays on Friday night, Pierzynski was left with a strange feeling. He was used to seeing Buehrle throw from behind the plate, not the batter's box. The last time Pierzynski had faced Buehrle before Friday's game was in 2003.
"It was really weird to go out there and see him," Pierzynski said. "He wouldn't even look at me, which was kind of weird. I was trying to get his attention because he wouldn't even look at me."
Pierzynski knows Buehrle as well as anyone in the game. But knowing Buehrle and understanding how he's going to attack are two completely different things.
Buehrle, a 15-year veteran, is known to rarely, if ever, shake off his catcher, which makes him a difficult opponent to prepare for, Pierzynski said. That's why despite being knowledgeable when it comes to Buehrle's repertoire, Pierzynski was unable to provide much help to his Red Sox teammates prior to the contest.
Whatever report Pierzynski had on Buehrle appeared to work out just fine. The catcher hit a sacrifice fly, lined out and ripped a leadoff single against Buehrle in three trips to the plate.
Worth noting
• Brandon Morrow allowed four earned runs on no hits in the Blue Jays' 7-6 loss to Boston on Saturday. He set a new career-high for walks in a game with eight.
• Pierzynski's grand slam in the third inning was the eighth of his career, and first since May 2009. It was the first Red Sox grand slam of the season.
• Melky Cabrera has hit safely in 23 of 24 games this season.

Shaka when the walls fell
(I am inserting gangnam ^ in place of the word viral since it is so huge of a viral succes, hope you got that)
Boontling is an american invented language.
Watch the video to get oriented about how it was invented and to understand its current state.
^That link will die at some point
Here is the wiki on it
For every word in boontling there is a story behind it. For example: Chirl Charl is the sound of the milk hitting the pan when you milk the cows.
I say Linux peoples back these guys up and Officially request of the elders that we linux peoples become the new central warehouse of the boontling language and that we teach their senior members how to administrate a central linux controlled database/language approval board and/or website so that it does not die.
Who is with me?

Return to Projects Listing
From Man Cave to Cave of Man
For a long time I have wanted to give my garage/man cave a facelift. I got tired of the plain entertainment center,cheap desk and shelves, so I decided to upgrade. I started by building a 10ft long X2ft wide work bench/desk. While I waited for material and funds I constructed temporary shelves out of fence boards which I put in between the wall studs. Next I covered the wall behind the bench with brick paneling, then I put up shelving rails and brackets and made my shelves of the same wood used for bench top. Both the bench and shelves were stained dark walnut. I used my buddies Ryobi brad nailer, circular saw and jigsaw. The brad nailer is fantastic!
