Hot Air Candidate Survey Results: June Edition
posted at 12:26 am on June 2, 2011 by Patrick Ishmael
Sarah Palin wins. Rick Perry places. Herman Cain shows. Mitt Romney fourth, and Tim Pawlenty fifth. Charts and analysis follow. Interactive map at the end.
It looks like Palin's bus tour is getting her back into the survey groove she had earlier this year. The graphs to date:
The obvious eye-popper is Perry's share of the vote in his first survey. Where'd all those votes come from? And why didn't Pawlenty do better after Daniels' exit, as we'd expected?
Those questions are easily answered when we dig a bit into our data. Take a look at the votes Perry gained from other candidates (the second column). And then, look at the 2nd choice column.
Perry is occupying Pawlenty's space, and obviously the space of a lot of candidates, given that Palin and Cain don't escape unscathed, either. It's an unusual, cross-party coalition judging from the "formerly voted for" column. Will be interesting to see how Perry's fortunes fair in subsequent surveys. But for now at least, it looks like he's got a broad base of support.
And lastly, the map. This month I've included only the top five vote getters to make the map load faster and to make it easier to see how the heavy hitters stack up regionally. Feedback in the comments, or join me on Twitter.

The Game's presence in Khloe Kardashian's life is proving to be a blessing in disguise. The reality star has reportedly decided to let bygones be bygones and has embarked on a new journey of romance. She was recently spotted wearing a personalized sweatshirt by the rapper.
According to reports by Daily Mail, the sweatshirt was from The Game's Blood Money Tour. The sweatshirt even had Khloe's name embroidered in white and she indeed looked dapper in it.
Moreover, what has fueled Khloe and The Game romance rumors is the night out which Lamar's ex wife took with The Game. According to eyewitnesses, Khloe was grinding all over The Game on the dance floor and the rumored couple was inseparable.
"Khloe was getting her life pure and simple," revealed a source to Hollywoodlife.com, adding, "She was having a blast, grinding all over The Game in the VIP section they were in."
Yesterday, Khloe even took to twitter to post a cryptic message, which said, "Don't forget that you're human. It's okay to have a melt down. Just don't unpack and live there. Cry it out and then refocus on where you are headed."
So is Khloe headed The Game's way now?
She has had a terrible time in the last few months having gone through many ups and down since parting ways from NBA player husband Lamar Odom. The reason for the couple's split was Lamar's alleged drug addiction and extramarital affair.
Khloe filed for divorce after celebrating her fourth wedding anniversary with Lamar and since then she has gone through plethora of changes from losing weight to moving close to her mother Kris Jenner's home.
During Christmas holidays, it was also buzzed that Khloe has found her partner in baseball player Matt Kemp. But soon the reports disappeared into thin air.
Let us know what you think about the budding romance of Khloe and The Game. Do you think it will pull out Khloe from the melancholy of Lamar Odom? Let us know your thoughts and for more updates stay tuned.

Burton Escapade for Beginner
Hi All,
I bought the Burton Escapade binding for my girlfriend cause they were a bargain, and other beginner bindings like the Burton Lexa were not in stock. Since then I realise the Escapade is a binding directed at Advanced Freeriders, and is very stiff and not very forgiving for beginners. Im looking for some advice, I dont want my girl to struggle with learning on this binding. Do you guys/gals think that learning on this binding will cause problems? Should I sell them, and purchase something more entry level, with forgiving flex? Something like the Union Cadet Lady, or Burton Lexa, or RideEX? Thanks, CLoSeR |
I don't have any experience riding a stiff binding, so I can't really answer your question. :rolleyes: Sorry.
It would probably depend on her athletic ability and her willingness to take risks. Is she strong? Will she pick up snowboarding easily? Will she push through difficulties? Is she interested in trying park or ground tricks? However, a few thoughts on bindings. The Burton Escapade is a very nice binding, but also one of the stiffest out there for women. The Burton Lexa is not technically a beginner binding, but that's okay. It's a good binding and will be fine for a beginner to learn on. I personally think the Lexas and the Escapades are way overpriced, though, and would only buy them if they were more than 50% off. In general, I would suggest that you stay away from the cheapest binding of any line - in my experience, they are just too hard to get in and out of, are uncomfortable, etc. If you want Union, go for the MIlan or Trilogy. If you want Ride, go for the Vxn or Dva (the RX is a men's binding). Rome also has an excellent line of women's bindings. I personally ride K2 Virtues and love them. |
She'll be fine. What type of board does she have? As long as it's not a really stiff board she'll be good to go. A stiff binding creates more response with minimal effort. This is a problem with beginners. They tend to over-think things causing them to overcompensate. For example, they can't get a toeside turn down clean so they think pushing into it harder will work. The stiffer the binding, the less you actually have to push to get the needed response.
It's not a huge deal. In fact, it'll probably make her a better rider. It'll force her to concentrate on technique. |
She's going to love those bindings and she will be able to grow skill wise into them. No way they will be stiffer then the ski boot type like set-up I learned on. (ie. ski boot with hardboot bindings)

In the 4th grade I decided to learn the viola and
joined the school orchestra. That
endeavor lasted a year. While others
excelled, I broke strings and learned to make noises that resembled cats dying
in an alley rather than beautiful melodies.
In the 5th grade I decided to switch from
orchestra to band. The cornet was my
instrument of choice. My mother had
played the cornet at Bowlegs High (seriously—Bowlegs, Oklahoma). Evidently she was pretty good, even using
the horn my grandparents bought for her at a Seminole, Oklahoma second hand
store. She kept it polished and would occasionally
pull it out of its case and play a few notes for us. Rather than purchase a new horn for me, the cornet
was brought out from the closet and became mine for the year. There was a problem. Even though Mom could muster up a few notes,
it was still old (heavens…it was second hand when Mom got it—now it was "third
hand" for me!). I could barely get a
note out of it. How I even passed band
that year, I do not know. I can't
remember ever being able to play a single song on it. I gladly returned the horn to my Mother's
possession at the end of the year.
Eventually the cornet became a decoration in our home. It sat upon a shelf—a source of
entertainment and laughs brought down on family reunions and gatherings. To try to blow a note could mean almost
passing out from the effort. Only Mom
could really play anything that remotely resembled music. The rest of us could make it sound like a
cow needing to be milked at best or someone with bad gastric problems at worst.
Mom's home was demolished in the May 3, 1999 tornado. Possessions and memories were swept away
with the wind. Under a wall—a few more
dents, not quite as pretty—was the cornet.
Digging more we found muddied photo albums…and the photo of Mom in her
Bowlegs High band uniform.
Play on, Mom!

Hello, here is a quick question ..?what should be appropiate compilation flag for MIPS RC32134/Rc32334..? currently i am trying in arch/mips/Makefile GCCFLAGS += -mcpu=r4600 -mips2 -Wa,--trap But I doubt it for two reasons. 1.I think mips1 should be used instead of mips2 becauseif you follow mips literature mips 2* and 3* series fall under MIPS1 category. 4* and bigger series comes under MIP2 and MIPS3 series. for example CONFIG_CPU_LLSC is not enabled for all MIPS1 category processors. 2.Is -mcpu=r4600 switch is alright for Rc32334? I was just wondering why i should use -mcpu=r4600 for RC323334 Best Regards, Atul __________________________________________________________ Give your Company an email address like ravi @ ravi-exports.com.

Product description
Based on a programme developed by a leading team of dermatologists and psychologists at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, The Eczema Solution is the essential book for eczema sufferers. Each chapter represents an 'appointment' and takes you through the stages of first learning about eczema, then controlling it and finally curing it for good. The key to the programme is to stop scratching. Research at the Chelsea and Westminster has shown that no amount of emollient cream or steroids will work if scratching continues. This is much easier said than done which is why The Eczema Solution provides foolproof techniques to break, and then replace, the scratching habit. The Eczema Solution offers a unique approach to tackling eczema including: -Awareness of when and how you scratch -Using treatments effectively and for as little time as possible -Boosting your emotional well being by being in control of your eczema. With a troubleshooting and question and answer section to deal with common problems, The Eczema Solution is your route to a life without eczema.

text: Depends on how young or old you are. I worked downtown (actually, no I'm not a hooker or drug dealer) for awhile and loved it but didn't love the lack of public transportation. I lived near 16 mile and it took forever to get home. I grew up listening to Motown music (no mention of that in this article, very strange!). Also in high school we didn't hang out at Malls, me and my friends would go to "the island" (Belle Isle) on a Friday or Saturday night and just "party". And yes I used to go downtown all the time for the Ethnic Festivals (back in the 80's, and late 70's). So depending on how old or young you are, this article is relevant. I don't find it very relevant to how I grew up in Detroit, near 8 mile and Van Dyke. I think it's a rather useless article and the spelling is horrible.

Publication # 197
We report a surface-normal optically-controlled optoelectronic modulator made from a reversed biased p-i(multiple quantum well)-n GaAs/AlGaAs structure with ultrathin barriers (5Ċ) whose recovery time is based on diffusive conduction. Modulation of reflectivity from 0.3 to 0.6 and back again in about 50ps was demonstrated using a 750fJ control pulse at 855nm. We also demonstrated modulated changes in power greater than the control pulse power -- a type of signal gain -- by a factor of 1.8-to-1. Strong changes in reflectivity combined with low required control power make this device potentially useful for high-speed switching arrays in such applications as time division demultiplexing.

Simultaneous cell morphometry and refractive index measurement with dual-wavelength digital holographic microscopy and dye-enhanced dispersion of perfusion medium
Optics Letters, Vol. 33, Issue 7, pp. 744-746 (2008)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (214 KB)
Digital holographic microscopy (DHM) allows optical-path-difference (OPD) measurements with nanometric accuracy. OPD induced by transparent cells depends on both the refractive index (RI) of cells and their morphology. This Letter presents a dual-wavelength DHM that allows us to separately measure both the RI and the cellular thickness by exploiting an enhanced dispersion of the perfusion medium achieved by the utilization of an extracellular dye. The two wavelengths are chosen in the vicinity of the absorption peak of the dye, where the absorption is accompanied by a significant variation of the RI as a function of the wavelength.

Originally posted by darkhalf357x +1. I admit I don't get the thread... Grandmasters didn't lost anything with this, it still is a great deal (on an another thread I said that maybe I'll buy one GM pack for myself in January) And if the problem is that the game changed under us, well, as darkhalf357x wrote it's maybe sad and unfortunate, but not something to base a legal case on. I would've liked better as well, if Funcom chose to stay on the subscription route. On the other hand, maybe this b2p change will be a good thing on the long run. Ps. the 30$ lolkids, on the beta and the trial weekends we already saw that they won't be a problem. They will leave :) Agreed, in the first 1-2 months maybe we will see a lot of "what's the code at the church"-like comments on general... Disturbing? A bit. But I don't think it's enough for a legal case either. |
Sounds like the OP made a bad investment and now they are butthurt. That's on you.
If the OP wants to take legal action against Funcom, then I say 'Good luck!' But all this 'Hey, look at me! Look at me! I'm suing Funcom! I'M SUING FUNCOM! Applaud me!' stuff is pointless. |
Sometimes things in the digital world are difficult to grasp, but this isn't anything you can sue Funcom over. Funcom sold you X, for Y and pledged to provide Z. Aslong as they provide Z you have no legal grounds to complain, atleast here in europe. EULAs do not even come into it. I mean obviously a company has the right to offer someone else a different contract than what you got. I can't even wrap my mind around the idea that you as a third person should have a right to intervene between a company and a new customer just because you bought from them once ... If you think that you are somehow entitled to retroactive pricecuts ... how far back would that work? Can i buy a summerdress for my wife in june, and then demand the store pay me out the difference in the wintersale months later? If my mobile carrier releases a new package deal thats cheaper than what i got, can i demand he pay me out the difference even though im in the 24 month period? I mean not even communist countries work like that ... |
Hi. I'm an actual honest-to-God lawyer. To the original poster: You have no case. The EULA spells out that they can change what they want when they want. It seems to be your argument that your payment at the beginning of the game's existence entitles you to everything and later people should have to pay the same amount. In regards to that opinion, I can either go to a theater and pay full price for a brand-new movie, or I can wait until it is available on On Demand for $2.99. Those who went to the theater have no cause to complain that people watching the movie On Demand paid less.
Hedonismbot: Your latest performance was as delectable as dipping my bottom over and over into a bath of the silkiest oils and creams. |
Originally posted by Skooma2 Well I'm no lawyer, but I don't think people would have a case even if the same theater they went to decides to lower the price on the movie the very next day because they couldn't get all tickets sold at the old price. I mean if companies weren't allowed to adjust their prices ... I just can't wrap my mind around that notion. But I think it would probably be bad for the economy or something. |
I see these kind of "I'm gonna sue this MMORPG if they don't refund my 10 dollars" kind of posts for every MMORPG ever released. How many have been successfully sued? In the only specific case I can recall, the courts upheld Blizzard's EULA. (that was pre WoW if I remember correctly) Regardless of the above, how many lawyers do you think would want to get on board with this kind of case? Unless you are willing to pay thousands of dollars to finance the suit they would have to take the case with the understanding that they would get 1/3 or more of total money recovered. In order to actually litigate the case, such a lawyer needs to put up their own financial warchest in order to pay litigation costs and salaries of those involved. This means that big cases like this are a huge risk. Do you really think they are going to jump all over this kind of thing? Are you a Pavlovian Fish Biscuit Addict? Get Help Now! |

And here the law itself. http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/bgb/BJNR001950896.html#BJNR001950896BJNG023401377 So if its not allowed by EULA to prohibit the sale of the software, you can now imagine that most EULA in this point are not valid. http://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/bgb/__308.html "4. die Vereinbarung eines Rechts des Verwenders, die versprochene Leistung zu ändern oder von ihr abzuweichen, wenn nicht die Vereinbarung der Änderung oder Abweichung unter Berücksichtigung der Interessen des Verwenders für den anderen Vertragsteil zumutbar ist;" is interesting for the TO. It means, EULA rules about changing the service are not valid, if they are not reasonable for the customer. So there is no real white and black, what is reasonable changing the lifetime sub into the new system. i absolutely agree that the TO is a little bit too squeamish. but i am not a judge. |
This is not how you take legal action. To take legal action you need spare time, money and knowledge. * Need money? Earn it or create a campaign to crowdsource it. * Don't have spare time? Well, then don't bother. * Don't have knowledge? Learn, study, ask for help/guidance or hire a professional. Posting on forums about how some company is shit and how THIS IS NOT WHAT YOU PAID FOR isnt going to take you closer to sueing them. What will take you closer is actually talking to lawyers, friends or relatives or paying for consultations, actually reading stuff, asking correctly formulated questions (at least something like "guys I'm going to sue Fancom over this what can you advise me"). Then making your case and going to court. Good luck if you actually do try to sue Funcom over this. I agree "no refunds" policy is ridiculous. If you paid for sub and there is no sub anymore, then you deserve to get your money back because the service you paid for is no longer provided. Whatever shit they word in their EULA, there are laws against that. There should be. Even in corrupted burocratic unfair Russia we have laws against such brainfuck. If you confused your customer deliberatly, like, selling him a sub, advertising it as a sub, but instead in small letters selling him thin air or some bullshit, then even if you signed a contract that said you're paying them for some "thin air" or basically nothing, if they advertised a sub, and you can prove it, then you win and can void the contract (and thus get a refund). Basically, intentionally misleading or confusing from one side is considered a valid legal reason to void the contract. However, if you bought a "lifetime" sub, then I guess you cannot really ask for refund because you clearly paid for something different than a 'lifetime" sub. Because its common sense that no game lives forever, no service lives forever, and thus when you buy a "lifetime service" you sign in for multiple limits of liability and so on and so forth. And there is no real way to refund lifetime sub since you cannot say which part of it you consumed yet (unlike sub, where if you paid for 10 months and in 3 months they switched to B2P, you can say you consumed 3 months but demand 7 months refunded). |
Seems simple to me, Funcom offer a refund for any customer that is dissatisfied with the new arrangement. This all boils down to customer satisfaction, legalities aside. The fact the customer is 'stitched up' with legal bs so that they sign away their rights is sort of immaterial. Call for Funcom to do the right thing. Refund any customer that is unhappy with the new arrangement. Surely even the people that are happy with the new arrangement should be able to support that course of action. |
So ... lets sum up. Before the shift a subsciption gave you: 1. Access to full game and updates 2. ..... thats it After the shift you get: 1. Access to full game and updates 2. Spare points to spare on vanity items 3. Free xp potions that gives you a bonus compared to the xp gain you had before 4. Time Accelerator (Clickable item which increases experience gain for defeating monsters by 100% for 1 hour, 16 hour cool-down) Once again for one hour you can get double of exp you were getting before the bussiness model shift To me you gained a lot of stuff and lost nothing. However the reason you started this thread and the reason people like you find changes such as this somehow threatening is you are a bunch of internet rednecks. You simply cant bear the fact OTHER PEOPLE now have free access to something you paid for. For some reason this is such a big factor to you you feel the need to go on the internets and bitch about it. I advice people like you to either stop for a minute and thinkabout their character traits or get prefisional help. Evaluating your own life based on what other people have is simply not healthy. |
if you haven't asked for a refund for the game after the change, which I bet if asked correctly they would do. Since the product has changed you can request a refund based on that.....
There are times when one must ask themselves is it my passion that truly frightens you? Or your own? |
Originally posted by platonicx Don't forget item of the month. Both subs and lifetimers are better off after the change. They are getting more for their money, not less. |
Originally posted by fallenlords Funcom is doing the right thing, for the long term survival of the game. If this allows them to keep the game going, keep adding new content, and attract new players to the game, it benefits everyone interested in the game, including subscribers and lifetimers. |
Originally posted by platonicx I'm not usually one to quote the Bible, but folks might want to take a look at this one, as I think it's pretty applicable: http://gracethrufaith.com/selah/parables/the-parable-of-the-workers-in-the-field/ |
Hahaha lifetime subscription for a funcom mmo, glorious |
If these things really worked i would be roling in money form all the lawsuits i filed against every single MMO company out there for making changed to payment models. Go ahead do it, i have been reading these posts for years now. |
Here's the thing, what did you get for the grandmaster pack? Unlimited access to the game and some bonus items. You still have all that, what you paid for hasnt changed, other people are now, just getting some of what you paid for, for free (or heavily discounted if you count the box price). Its like buying a new game at a store, 7 months later, you find out the store is doing a massive sale or heavily discounting the game for like $10, you dont get to go back and ask for the difference. Although i'm sure im going to get some person coming here saying they did just that, if you, your results are not typical. |
this is ridiculous. this is like sueing a computer parts supplier because they give pentium 4's away for free but you paid $300 for it 10 years ago. you cant sue a company for changing the price of their product???

You left out the 'h'. It's "prefishional" help. Prefishional help is when you don't eat enough fish, and lack the omega 3 fatty acids and b vitamins and it makes you grumpy. I would have thought the word would be "fishional", but the pre is because the help is arriving prior to the arrival of the fish. I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet. |

These are the things that constantly go through my mind. I usually look at something and figure out how to make it myself. Unfortunately, this is one of those things that is difficult to make for less than the cost to buy. The quick answer is a lawnmower with a bagger. That's hard to get to woodsy areas though. A lawner sweeper will run about $200. The general materials are not expensive but it's the gear box/drive mechanism that is complicated and runs up the tab. Using your time is like printing money. If you don't have the money, but, have the time, then you can make alot of stuff. But, there's a point of diminishing return. I think this is one of them. Until I got a sweeper I just drove around and mowed stuff (or leaf blower) into a central pile then gathered it by hand. Maybe rigging a rake type affair would suffice. At least you wouldn't have to do that by hand. A couple of wheels and some store-bought tines [might be less than a store bought rake.] [not so much an answer, but, and opinion.] -- arborial reconfiguration specialist......Zone out....(USA 5) |

0 2950 Process Management
Approximately 10,000 tonnes of the suspect batch was distributed to 13 feed mills in Northern Germany resulting in delivery of feed to 4,000 farms in Lower Saxony and numerous small operations in seven other states. Product was also shipped to the Netherlands where trace-forward is in progress. The affected consignment allegedly assays at 200 ppb aflatoxin, approximately 10 times the permitted level. This corn would raise the level of aflatoxin-M in milk above the US statutory limit of 0.5 ppb at even low levels of dietary inclusion. Now concern over contamination is leading to widespread recall of dairy products in the affected regions, reminiscent of previous dioxin and PCB contamination episodes.The Swiss surveying company SGS, SA. detected contamination in Serbian corn back in December 2012. Their findings were initially rejected by the Serbian Department of Agriculture. It is worth noting that the 2012 corn crop in Serbia was subjected to severe drought, reducing the harvest by 45%.This should have alerted the importers in Germany to the possibility of contamination. The current situation appears to denote either gross negligence or profit-motivated disregard of consequences on the part of the importer/distributor.As with previous EU feed contamination scandals the primary and contributory caused will be revealed in due course by independent statutory inquiries. What matters now is to identify and remove the affected ingredients and feeds from commerce. In this task EU authorities unfortunately have plenty of experience! Restoration of consumer confidence is a slower process.Could it happen in the US? Possibly, but it would be unlikely on such a broad scale as in the EU. The 2012 crop which was affected by drought has been extensively screened and any "hot regions" identified. Feed manufacturers are aware of their legal and moral obligations to their customers and integrators are conscious of the consequences of feeding contaminated ingredients to their herds and flocks.Source: Egg-Cite.com

The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) will hold a public meeting called "OSHA Listens" on February 10 from 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. at the Frances Perkins Building auditorium in Washington, D.C. The purpose of the meeting is to solicit comments and suggestions from OSHA stakeholders on key issues facing the agency.
To attend or make an oral presentation at the meeting, individuals must register by close of business on February 3 by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com. In the email, include your name, title, company or organization, address, telephone number, and email address. If you wish to make a short presentation, include the specific topic or issue.
Some of the questions OSHA invites public input on include:
• What can the agency do to enhance and encourage the efforts of employers, workers, and unions to identify and address workplace hazards?
• What are the most important emerging or unaddressed health and safety issues in the workplace, and what can OSHA do to address these?
• How can the agency improve its efforts to engage stakeholders in programs and initiatives?
• Are there additional measures to improve the effectiveness of the agency's current compliance assistance efforts and the onsite consultation program to ensure small businesses have the information needed to provide safe workplaces?
• What specific actions can the agency take to enhance the voice of workers in the workplace, particularly workers who are hard to reach, who do not have ready access to information about hazards or their rights, or who are afraid to exercise their rights?
Those unable to attend may send written comments to OSHA Docket Office, Docket Number OSHA-2010-0004, Technical Data Center, Room N-2625, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, D.C. 20210. Written comments may also be submitted by email to firstname.lastname@example.com. Identify all comments with a docket number.
For more information on the scope of the meeting, refer to the Federal Register notice at www.federalregister.gov/OFRUpload/OFRData/2010-00814_PI.pdf.
