Hello again!
Hiya. After over a month of not posting, I'm back again. Ready to rain down Rhysisms on the world..... Right?
Wrong! I am off tomorrow for a week and a bit to Torquay, for a family holiday. What am I going to do there? I don't know. Who will I meet? I don't know. All I know is that it's gonna be fun.
So what have I been upto in my months absence? Well, mainly my A Levels. This time last month I was in the week of hell, 7 exams in 5 days, every single one (with the possible
exception of the completely pointless General Studies papers) was important to what I do, who I become, and what I'll get in the future. How did I think I do? Not bad. if it was a good week then I should of done enough. However I hate predicting results.
Also, it's been a busy month as I have been promoting two of my games: Graffiti and Penalty Prize. The latter of which is currently being considered for publication. Wish me luck! As this has never happened before, it would be kinda nice.
Also, I have been enjoying the beauty of my proof of age card, which came through the post a few
Saturdays back. However, the card means that now I am no longer asked for ID! Bloody typical eh? I'm just going to show it to anybody who will look, whether they want to see it or not. However, it's only about two weeks to go until Sibley is 18, and that'll be a big bonus, as then he won't get refused when going out on the tiles/pull etc. Dimpy is later than Sibley, however, he looks over 18. So therefore he should be okay.
I have been thinking about traveling, which is a bit of a bugger, because I hate it. Yesterday I went to Chester, the journey back massacred me, as far as I'm concerned. When I left the car I was in a right state! I was "I DON'T WANNA GO ON HOLIDAY! IT SUCKS!", and with a rotten headache, who can blame me? I however am dreading the 6 hour (including stops) trip to Minehead tomorrow, as that will absolutely destroy me. I WONT FEEL LIKE DRINKING TOMORROW! Which will be an absolute tragedy. If I have a headache when I arrive there will be fucking murder also, as Minehead has one huge arcade, with dirt cheap games.
Sorry, I'm rambling again. I always seem to do this when I have nothing to do. Oh well, cest la vie.
Anyway, enough of that, onto the important stuff.
Important Tacky items I will get on holiday
Important things I will do on holiday
1. One of those shirts with samuries/sami/samuri/whatever the plural of samuri is on it.
2. One of those £5 for 20 games "Mega Joy II" consoles (bonus if it has Street Fighter 2 on it).
3. A Greenday Album (okay, not tacky, but I still want it!)
1. Get Drunk or Try a Sidekick
2. Play Dancing Stage Euromix, Aquajet, Final Furlong (bonus with 2+ players), Daytona USA, Point Blank, Street Fighter, Time Crisis AND anything else that takes my fancy.
3. Find an internet cafe, to check on itsagoal.com
4. Get Richard Drunk. (2 Points difficulty)
5. Eat a Chinese (meal).
6. Get my Dad Drunk. (5 Points difficulty)
7. Sleep.
8. Get my Mum Drunk. (0 Points difficulty)
9. Sleep.
10. Get Aled Drunk. (3.5 Points difficulty)
And there you have it, my holiday checklist!
Right, I am off to go pack (yes I know, I'm lazy etc.), and I'll see you on August 3rd!

TNT Crew: Kenny calls DeRozan a 'superstar in the making'
Yay or Nay??
I think so far demar has been progressing pretty well. I forget how long he had to deal with being the bench player but I know it was for a couple of seasons. Once he was given the job to carry this team (along with lowry) I think he did a good job. Sure there are lot of things to work on but you can tell this guy works to improve. Hopefully Kenny is right! |

I mentioned this deep in the game thread. Nice praise, and not too far off in relative terms. He's come farther than I expected. I don't think a direct comparison to George was meant, but rather just a comparison to how each broke out to some extent.
As i said earlier, i just hope there will be no pictures of any johnson other than Amir. DeMar never came off the bench, but he did have to play alongside Bargnani. |

nay, but I'm very encouraged by his playoff performance, I thought he'd be much worse. There are way too many holes in his play still, but there's still plenty of time to plug at them.
Continue to improve his 3pt shooting and add some some strength to be able to defend the 3 properly, and who knows. He needs to watch a ton of film and improve his IQ - this series badly exposed this aspect of his game. Over and over they trapped him in the 3rd and he failed to recognize the play developing. |

He was never a bench player he was put in the starting line up right away even if he wasn't ready for it but it's not like we had a better player behind him that year I think our back up for him was Antoine Wright

There wasnt much of a clear role for anyone. And sure Andrea was never a leader but at some point the whole Raptors organization depended on andrea to carry the team but failed to do so.

I'm actually way more impressed with his defensive acumen this year. His DRTG was always horrible and he always gave up more points than he scored; this year, he was able to right the ship, make better defensive decisions, keep his man in front of him, foul less at crucial times, everything.
In my mind, stars are not stars unless they can at least do an above-average job on the defensive end, which is why Harden does not pass the test for me. DeMar is obviously doing wonderful things on the offensive side of things, but it's his defense that has really taken the next step. His facilitating abilities, vision, and willingness to pass have also gone to the next-level, which is obviously helped by better talent around him. Yes, he'll still occasionally take a bad shot, but it keeps defenses honest. It's the little things that have me excited for his future - that, and he's 24 years old. He ain't done yet.

honestly i expect less than what he produce, and i'm a big fan.
But what i see in the first 4 games in the playoffs - firsts in his career - is hisability to fight. he seems to like he waited all his life to be in that situation, in the playoffs on big stage and he embrace it. tonight was his best defensive game (or maybe second half) of his pro career. and that is what make me smile. i think he just realize how godd he can be or become and he take mesure of it. and that is a big step in his growth. the sky is the limit. (i wish the club offer him a big hard private workout with a defensive gourou this summer.) how by the way, i tough of a niickname for our 2 (KL - DD) "superstar in the making" : THE CHARGE BROTHERS ! |

nahhh, he's an idiot. he's an extremely reactionary guy that will praise someone based on one performance and if Derozan struggles in game 5 he'll be off the bandwagon.....that's Kenny smith

In the third quarter he dribbled right into the double...then backed up slowly allowing them to close in with pressure. There was a play fairly late in the 4th where we were lucky that Alan Anderson fouled him in the double. Otherwise he's playing really well. For a large portion of games 2, 3, and 4 he has looked like the best player on the floor. |

Sometimes he is missing the right pass, which he definitely was last night in the third and fourth where he wasn't hitting the big in the middle. Once it happens twice in a row though I blame Demar and the coaching staff. They need to step in and micromanage a few possessions to make that pass happen. However, the one time that pass was made, JV turned and got the ball stolen by Kirilenko when he tried swinging it to the corner, and neither he or Hayes looked excited to get the basketball. |

Comments about H&R 1871 Inc H&R Superlight Handi-Rifle Centerfire Rifle Package:
Bought this gun as I had been wanting to try the 45/70 round for a while, and it seemed like the best deal. Very easy to use and clean (its a single shot, so it better be). The included scope isn't too bad, although it was way out of alignment out of the box. Once dialed in the rifle shot very accurately out to 100 yards. The scope isn't good for much better than that so I haven't tried farther yet. Trigger pull is a little hard so it takes some getting used to, and it does have a good recoil, but over all well worth the money, probably my favorite rifle at the moment.

Ironman 2 is out and in full swing. I got to watch it on opening day at the Regal and it didn't disappoint, unless you count when the screen went black halfway in and kids started crying and then you find out from management that the projector bulb went out and you will get your money back to watch it again another time because restarting it is out of the question. So I just jumped screens to a showing that had started after mine and re-watched the first half again.
The film did very well for a sequel to an already very good movie. The action was well animated to look as real as possible (men don't fly in metal suits, yet) and it was well implemented throughout the movie to keep you awake. The Actors were as good as you can get for the parts. I wouldn't change out a single one of them. Don Cheadle slipped into the roll of 'War Machine' perfectly after Terrence Howard dropped out. Scarlett Johansson definitely will grab your attention every single time she shows up on screen, which is a lot. She plays a cool sort of duo with Gwyneth Paltrow as the women in charge, Ironman just has the firepower. Mickey Rourke's comeback is looking good! He plays a very good pissed off son.
(CAUTION! SPOILERS IN THIS PARAGRAPH!) My favorite thing in Ironman 2 is most definitely S.H.I.E.L.D. Jon Favreau is working with Marvel and other directors to create the ultimate movie tie-together to the Avengers movie. It all started with the original Ironman where Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg) is covering up Stark's tracks through S.H.I.E.L.D. The movie also ends after the credits with Nick Fury (Samuel Jackson) asking Stark to listen to a proposition about the Avenger Initiative. A month later in The Incredible Hulk, Tony Stark (Downey Jr.) shows up after the credits to talk about the Avengers to General Ross (William Hurt). Ironman 2 continues with showing Captain America's shield in the movie as well as another tip after the film of Agent Coulson finding Thor's hammer in New Mexico in a crater. Thor is set to be in theaters next year in May followed by Captain America in July. Nick Fury will then become a full movie in 2012 to introduce...drumroll please! The Avengers! So there is your lesson for today on superheros and the awesome lineup that Hollywood has planned for Marvel movies. Sometime later I will talk about DC movies and where they're going.
All in all, I give the sequel to Ironman a 9 out of 10. It has the actors, action, budget, comedy, and story but the one thing I want to see is Ironman take on someone other than another dude in a robotic outfit.

Dairy Road Discovery Center provides preschool, VPK and Before and After School Care programs for families in the Melbourne and West Melbourne area. Since 1991 we have been providing quality education in a loving environment to every child who walks through our door. Learning by doing is our philosophy! We strive to give every student the opportunity to become involved in the learning process, and to discover the world for themselves. We provide experiences in library, music, sign language, Spanish, cooking, gardening, dramatics, art and science. Every detail, from our literature-based curriculum to the layout of our five playgrounds, is designed to aid in number and reading readiness and the development of fine and gross motor skills, not to mention fun!
Benefits of early education and the VPK program
- The most important growth and development in the brain happens by the age of five.
- A child's ability to be attentive and to follow directions emerges in the early years. Structured early learning fosters these abilities for later success in school and in life.
- Pre-K prepares children to be ready for school. Children who participate in high-quality early childhood education programs develop better language skills, score higher in school-readiness tests and have better social skills and fewer behavioral problems once they enter school. They are also better prepared for Kindergarten, especially in the areas of pre-reading, pre-math and social skills.
- Pre-K promotes a love of learning in children. Pre-K enhances what a child learns at home and instills a love of life-long learning.

William "Bill" McBride (May 10, 1945 – December 22, 2012) was an American lawyer and politician.
A member of the Democratic Party, he challenged Jeb Bush for Florida governor in the 2002 gubernatorial election. Bush won by a 56 to 43 percent margin, making him the first Republican governor of Florida to serve two terms. McBride had earlier defeated former United States Attorney General Janet Reno in the Democratic primary.
McBride was born in Belleville, Illinois and grew up in Leesburg, Florida. He graduated from the University of Florida in 1967. While at UF, McBride served as treasurer of Florida Blue Key and was inducted into the University of Florida Hall of Fame. McBride served in the Marine Corps from 1968 to 1971. McBride was awarded a Bronze Star with a Valor device. Upon his return to the United States, McBride taught at Officer Candidates School at Marine Corps Base Quantico.
Upon leaving the Marine Corps, McBride attended the University of Florida Law School.
While studying law he fell under the tutelage of Chesterfield Smith, a powerful politically connected Florida attorney and then president of the American Bar Association. McBride left law school for a time to serve as Smith's assistant at the ABA. After graduation, McBride joined Smith's Tampa law firm, Holland & Knight, where he rose in the ranks until becoming managing partner in 1992. McBride's tenure at the helm of Holland & Knight has been the source of some controversy. He is credited with having expanded the firm's size and power and with having helped to make it the seventh-largest firm in the U.S. by number of lawyers employed at the time of his retirement in 2001. At the time the firm ranked 21st in terms of revenue but 98th in terms of profit-per-partner, and had "become known as a reputable, but flabby, operation, long on underproductive partners and comparatively short on workhorse associates."[1]
McBride was the father of two children with his wife, Adelaide "Alex" Sink, a former statewide president for NationsBank (now Bank of America), former Chief Financial Officer of Florida, and 2010 Democratic nominee for Governor of Florida.
Since 2003, Bill McBride was partner with the law firm of Barnett, Bolt, Kirkwood, Long & McBride in Tampa. He was also chair of the board of the investment banking firm Hyde Park Capital Partners, LLC, with offices in Tampa and Charlotte, North Carolina. McBride was a member of the American Law Institute and was a member of the board of directors of the Warrington College of Business Administration's Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation at the University of Florida.
McBride was named Mr. Leesburg High while still a student. He attended Boy's State while in school and ran a successful campaign for governor at the event.
McBride died on December 22, 2012, after suffering a heart attack while vacationing with his family in Mt Airy, North Carolina.[2][3]

Joe Manganiello
Joe Manganiello in G-Star Raw
Joe Manganiello showed his support for Magic Mike co-star Matt Bomer, while attending an award celebration in Matt's honor. Joe wore a pair of dark wash G-Star jeans with a black shirt and shoes.
We've seen Joe in G-Star quite a bit, it seems to be his brand of choice when it comes to jeans. I am surprised that we haven't seen him out in a pair of Diesel's yet, I think he'd look great in them. You can buy both Diesel and G-Star online from EastDane.com.
Joe Manganiello in Levi's Shirt
Busy promoting his new film, Magic Mike 2 at the Savannah film festival, Joe Manganiello posed for press photos. For the event, he wore a chambray Levi's shirt with a dark wash pair of jeans.
I think the wash of this shirt is really flattering on him! The blue color is a great lighter-blue chambray that I think also looks great with the darker color of his jeans and provides a nice contrast. You can buy Levi's online from Eastdane.com.
Joe Manganiello in G-Star Raw & Sofia Vergara in 7 For All Mankind
Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello were pictured leaving the Justin Timberlake concert at the Staple Center in Los Angeles, California together a couple of days ago.
Sofia wore a pair of 7 For All Mankind The Skinny Jeans in Indigo with a simple black top and leopard heels while Joe wore his G-Star Raw jeans with a grey tee and boots. I think these jeans fit Maria perfectly, they look amazing from all angles! Buy 7 For All Mankind online at Singer22.com and G-Star Raw online at ASOS.com.

Sofia Vergara in Hudson and Joe Manganiello in G-Star
Sofia Vergara and boyfriend Joe Manganiello were snapped together while catching a flight out of the airport. The couple looked stylish, each wearing a pair of designer jeans. Sofia wore her Hudson flares and Joe chose a pair of zipper pocket G-Star jeans.
It has been a while since we've seen Sofia in this pair of Hudson jeans. I really like the two-tone hem along the flare and the fit on her is great. You can see how else she's worn these before here and you can buy Hudson online at their website.

Mac Users, Developers Reconciled to Security Threats
Despite continued warnings of vulnerabilities from security vendors, Mac OS X users and developers sounded a sanguine note in the face of potential exploits.
Despite release of a security patch by Apple Computer Inc. on Friday, and following Tuesday reports of further unplugged vulnerabilities in the companys Mac OS X operating system, users and developers appeared to take the warnings in stride. According to a security advisory updated Tuesday by Copenhagen-based security vendor Secunia Ltd., although the patch released by Apple on Friday prevents Web pages from calling the "help:" uniform resource identifier, it still remains possible to remotely mount disk images without a users permission. By registering and executing an arbitrary URI handler, hackers could run code placed on the disk image. Secunia said it is possible to use this exploit with volumes mounted via the "disk:" URI handler, or via AFP (Apple File Protocol), FTP, or SMB protocols. Secunia rates this vulnerability as "extremely critical."Be sure to add our eWEEK.com Macintosh news feed to your RSS newsreader or My Yahoo page

dc.description.abstract | Changes in field-scale agricultural nonpoint source pollution levels were assessed relative to changes in land management practices over a five-year period. The primary objective was to quantify edge-of-field nutrient and herbicide concentrations in first flush runoff, shallow groundwater (i.e. soilwater) and surface water for various Kansas agricultural practices under existing weather conditions on working farms. Additionally, attempts were made to relate the observed changes water quality to causative factors (e.g. weather patterns, natural conditions, adoption of best management practices) associated with the study areas and farms. Eight farms in central and northeast Kansas were chosen for study from thirty-five farms selected to participate in the Kansas Rural Center's Clean Water Farms Project. The management practices on the selected farms were (1) green manure cover crops in a stripped-crop rotation, (2) no-till procedures on rowcrops and small grains, (3) ongoing wheat field conversion to a grazing pasture, (4) rotational grazing systems on pasture already converted from cropland, and (5) limiting livestock access to watering ponds. Unforeseen changes in management plans or delays in implementation of management practices required alterations to study objectives for two of the monitoring programs to make them relevant to the actual management activities occurring on the farm. Runoff and groundwater samples were collected from 1996 to 2000 and analyzed for a number of constituents, most notably the major nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus and the herbicides atrazine and metolachlor. Scatter plots and box plots were used to organize and interpret the water quality data. A case study was developed for each farm in which potential causes of the observed changes in water quality were identified and related to the specific combination of weather, topography, land use and land cover on each farm. Variations in nutrient and herbicide concentrations in runoff and groundwater from study fields were related to weather patterns, the timing or elimination of fertilizer applications, off-site contributions of nutrients and herbicides, and the presence or absence of groundcover during larger runoff events. The runoff and groundwater data collected during this project serves as baseline data to characterize edge-of-field nutrient and herbicide concentrations on Kansas farms managed with practices intuitively beneficial to water quality. | en |

Ever heard of Crown Enterprises? Internet marketing opportunity, possible scam? (self.GetEmployed)
submitted 2 years ago by [deleted]
I'm supposed to attend a conference for an "opportunity" that requires no qualifications except to be ambitious and doing internet marketing. I'm pretty suspicious that this is a scam, but I've tried looking up the company and there aren't any reports from people screaming "It's a scam!" anywhere that I can find on the internet. So I turn to reddit to see if anyone has heard of Crown Enterprises and has any information about how they operate? http://crown.co/home.html
[–]nuclear_cheese 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago* (2 children)
It looks scammy. That and "For over 40 years Crown Enterprises has been providing marketing solutions for various product and service oriented companies."
Right. 40 years. That's why I can't find anything on them on the internet.
This is the address, it's the white house with the arches. uSe streetview and see for yourself. http://maps.google.ca/maps?hl=en&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.41524429,d.dmQ&biw=1097&bih=620&q=200+Harbor+Drive+Old+Hickory+37138&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x88643f9ed31df297:0x3713cd9bc49222c9,200+Harbor+Dr,+Old+Hickory,+TN+37138,+USA&gl=ca&sa=X&ei=5yEHUZHEK-np0gGl2IGQDw&ved=0CCwQ8gEwAA
Did you even see their "thoughts on internet marketing"? Here it is: http://crown.co/images/QI_Video_-_small.wmv
Notice how they try and rope you in being very vague about what you would do and selling very hard the money and free time and money you would have? Did I mention money? Because money. Also the overuse of stock images is making me uncomfortable.
A Whois lookup reveals this: http://www.whois.com/whois/crown.co
The guy's name is Greg Meadows. I think he's the guy according to WhoIs. It looks like a two bit operation and not a real business. If you want to go for a interview for practice then have fun and don't tell them where you live.
[–][deleted] 2 years ago (1 child)
[–]nuclear_cheese 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I would still go. I went to a primerica "interview" once and at the time I thought it was lame but I am very grateful for it. It made me more aware of when someone is trying to sell me something... for their own benefit. That and I can pick out pyramid schemes more easily.
If you do plan to go, go as an observer. Play stupid, ask questions and be very unsure. Say that you're really interested and you need more time to think about it because you have to talk to your wife/hubby and you think they would be interested too. Give no real information but give the douchebag hope that he's roped you in.
[–]petdance 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I'm pretty suspicious that this is a scam
Then it probably is.
Look at that website. Does that look like the website of a company that knows anything about marketing? If you were a potential customer of Crown Enterprises, would you be impressed? How about that list of customers?

It is the airspeed at which the machine uses minimum power to remain in flight. As airspeed increases the blades get more efficient and so less power is required to sustain flight. The blades continue to get better as airspeed increases, but drag on the blades and the body of the helicopter also increase as you gain speed and these require power to overcome. At lower speeds the improvement in blade efficiency (less power needed) outweighs the combined increase in drag (more power needed) and so the total power required to keep the helicopter in the air falls as speed increases. However, the rate of increase in drag gets higher as the speed gets higher, so there comes a speed when either increasing speed (increasing drag more than blade efficiency) or reducing speed (reducing blade efficiency more than reducing drag) will mean that the total power required to stay in the air will increase. Simples!:ok: The technical explanation you have above, or is available from any Principles of Flight training manual for PPL(H). The curve for any particular helicopter can be found in the POH. John nodrama 30th Jun 2010, 16:44 It is the airspeed at which the machine uses minimum power to remain in flight. Great. That, plus the curves is all I really needed. So is V mp also the minimum airspeed that determines the minimum height (for a particular helicopter), where if the engine(s) went quiet, the rotors will have enough energy to get the thing on the ground relatively safely? Pofman 30th Jun 2010, 17:06 Vmp is not an abreviation I have ever come across in 50 years of helicopter flying. We usually refer to that point as endurance speed as in piston minimum fuel consumption is at minimun manifold pressure so it will be located at the bottom of the power required curve. You need to get Wagentendonk's Principles of Helicopter Flight from ASA as he explains this well and it is the basis for all the JAA PPL(H) POF exam questions.:ok: Shawn Coyle 30th Jun 2010, 18:25 Normally it's labeled V(sub)Y. |

With breathtaking views and remote links courses, the Outer Hebrides present unique challenges and unforgettable experiences for golfers. This 5-day itinerary around the islands offers suggestions for a fantastic golfing holiday and can be easily adapted to suit your trip.
Stornoway Golf Club, Lewis (18-hole parkland, 5,252 yards, par 68, sss 87)
Start your tour at Stornoway Golf Club, just a few minutes outside the town centre in the grounds of Lews Castle. This 18-hole course demands a keen judgement of distances from its players, with a variety of uphill and downhill holes leading through the undulating terrain. Blind greens and dogleg holes present their challenges, and watch out for hazardous gorse and heather. As you reach the higher parts of the course you'll be treated to spectacular views out to the town harbour in the east and to the mountains of Harris in the south.
The largest town in the Outer Hebrides, Stornoway offers much to see and do away from the course. The An Lanntair Art Centre hosts excellent art exhibits and live performances, while the Calanais Standing Stones, 30 minutes' drive away, are a must for those interested in history. You'll find a range of accommodation options in and around the town, as well as first-rate restaurants – make sure you try the local speciality, Stornoway black pudding.
Isle of Harris Golf Club (9-hole links, 4,900 yards for 18 holes, par 68, sss 65)
Just an hour's drive from Stornoway, Harris boasts a fascinating history and some of Scotland's most remarkable scenery. The Isle of Harris Golf Club lies on the western shore of the island, looking out to Taransay and the Atlantic Ocean. Its 9-hole course has been described as one of the most picturesque in the world, bordered by white sand beaches and, on a clear day, turquoise waters. The slopes and cliffs of this short links course provide plenty of challenges for golfers, often heightened by sweeping gales coming in from the Atlantic.
As well as its beautiful beaches, Harris offers a range of attractions and activities. Harris Outdoor Activity Centre opens in the summer for sea kayaking, sailing and other outdoor sports, and the Seallam! Visitor Centre in Northon recounts the island's fascinating history through interesting displays.
Benbecula Golf Club (9-hole parkland, 4,359 yards for 18 yards, par 62, sss 62)
Take the ferry from Leverburgh in Harris to the island of Berneray, then make a short trip over the road causeway to arrive on North Uist. Characterised by its peat bogs and sand beaches, it's an ideal location for country walks and is home to an abundance of wildlife, from otters and seals to the corncrake, one of Britain's rarest birds.
Continue south to Benbecula, the historic island where Flora MacDonald helped Bonnie Prince Charlie escape his pursuers by fleeing to the Isle of Skye. Benbecula Golf Club is located in Balivanich and includes a 9-hole, 18-tee course that makes excellent use of the area's flat terrain. With water hazards, bunkers and sudden changes in the Atlantic, take care with your club selection or you could be in for a tricky game.
Askernish Golf Club (18-hole links, 6,167 yards, par 68, sss 67)
Around half an hour's drive over the causeway from Benbecula, Askernish Golf Club on South Uist is an absolute must for golfers. Dubbed the 'holy grail of golf', this magnificent links course was created in 1891 by golfing legend Old Tom Morris but fell into disrepair in the early 20th century. A group of local golf enthusiasts set about restoring the course to its original design in 2005, and Morris' lost gem reopened in 2008.
The 18-hole course gets off to a gentle start with a 6-hole loop including two par 5s, before the club's signature seventh tee treats you to a challenging drive between two dunes. After an unforgettable round, you'll find dining and accommodation options in the small port town of Lochboisdale, 10 minutes away by car.
Barra Golf Club (9-hole links, 5,032 for 18 holes, par 68, sss 62)
The ferry crossing from Lochboisdale to Castlebay in Barra takes just over two hours, with regular departures all year round. The Isle of Barra Golf Club is located to the north-west of the island, making it the most westerly course in the UK. The 9-hole course provides exceptional views over the Atlantic, while large natural bunkers and protruding rocks add to its unique character.
Along with Benbecula and Stornoway, Barra is home to one of the Outer Hebrides' three airports. It offers regular flights to Benbecula and Glasgow and is home to one of the world's most unusual runways – its landing strip lies on the sands of Cockle Bay beach, disappearing into the water when the tide is in. Alternatively, the mainland can also be reached via ferry: the crossing to Oban takes just under six hours and offers on-board dining and shopping.

Ozzy Osbourne made a surprise appearance with CAMP FREDDY — the Los Angeles-based "jam" group featuring Dave Navarro (ex-JANE'S ADDICTION, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS), Billy Morrison (ex-THE CULT bassist, current CIRCUS DIABLO vocalist), Matt Sorum (VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES), Donovan Leitch (son of legendary folk singer Donovan), and Chris Chaney (JANE'S ADDICTION, ALANIS MORRISETTE) — during last night's (Friday, August 1) ESPN/X-Games party at the House Of Blues in West Hollywood, California. Osbourne performed three songs with the band — "Crazy Train", "Iron Man" and "Paranoid".
Commented Navarro: "[Friday] night's CAMP FREDDY show goes down in the band's history as one of the all-time greatest experiences in our six-year career. We have had the honor of playing with some of rock's most amazing and talented musicians. A list that is so vast that it is too long to type here. Go to CAMP FREDDY's MySpace page for a fairly full listing. Last night, however, was probably the most incredible for me personally as Ozzy joined us at the House of Blues for three songs... 'Crazy Train', 'Iron Man' and 'Paranoid'. Of all the artists we have had the pleasure of working with, none have had a more intense and profound effect on me than BLACK SABBATH. They are the pioneers of heavy metal. Their music has not only influenced me, but it has influenced just about every other heavy band that has in turn, influenced me. Having the opportunity to perform live with Ozzy is literally a dream come true. The House of Blues was cranked up to a level I have never seen in there before. The energy in the room was so electrifying that it could have powered up New York City for a year. Thanks to Ozzy for joining us on stage for a night that everybody in the club will remember forever!"

Wall-E - PC Games Trainer |
Wall-E - Screenshot |
What if mankind had to leave Earth, and somebody forgot to turn the last robot off? After hundreds of lonely years of doing what he was built for, WALL-E (short for Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class) discovers a new purpose in life (besides collecting knick-knacks) when he meets a sleek search robot named EVE. EVE comes to realize that WALL-E has inadvertently stumbled upon the key to the planets future, and races back to space to report her findings to the humans (who have been eagerly awaiting word that it is safe to return home). Meanwhile, WALL-E chases EVE across the galaxy and sets into motion one of the most exciting and imaginative comedy adventures ever brought to the big screen. Joining WALL-E on his fantastic journey across a universe of never-before-imagined visions of the future, is a hilarious cast of characters including a pet cockroach, and a heroic team of malfunctioning misfit robots. Players of the game take control of WALL-E and EVE through a fast-paced adventure based on the Disney/Pixar film. The game allows fans to relive some of the movies most thrilling moments as they explore 10 worlds filled with non-stop action and adventure, along with head-to-head multiplayer challenges. Players will recognize the storyline, characters and key locations from the WALL-E film as they carry out intense missions, dodge dangerous enemies and navigate their way through a futuristic world. In addition, the game contains new storylines and environments that movie-goers will not see in theaters. |

That guy cussing you out because you just accidentally cut him off in traffic, is he just a hothead? Or is he something much worse?
Asheville PD have identified and charged the suspect, and there is some question as to who he is.
Here's a lesson for you. You don't know who that person is. Leave them alone if you can. If they approach you, leave if you can. If all else fails, pull out your legally carried handgun and end the threat.
As of December 1st, HB650 goes into effect.
Stay in your car. If he comes in after you, you know what to do. If you get out and confront the person, it's mutual combat, and you can't call it self-defense.

Queen Silvia of Sweden
Silvia Sommerlath's engagement ring is a simple ring, probably more like what many of us (particularly those most familiar with the American tradition) might expect from an e-ring. It's a single solitaire diamond, estimated by some to be in the neighborhood of two carats, and is said to have belonged to King Carl Gustaf's mother Princess Sibylla - she died a few years before the couple's engagement. Silvia now wears the ring with others on the same finger, including a ruby ring.
Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden
Victoria's ring, reportedly from court jeweler W.A. Bolin, is much like her mother's - so similar, in fact, that some wondered in the days after the engagement if it actually was Silvia's. (It isn't.) Victoria paired the classic ring with her diamond wedding band, but lately she hasn't worn much of either ring.
Princess Madeleine of Sweden
Madeleine has been the (at least partially unlucky, I suppose) recipient of two engagement rings in recent years. Her first, from Jonas Bergström in 2009, was a rectangular diamond set horizontally - but of course that engagement was broken following rumors of cheating on Jonas' part. In 2012 her engagement to Christopher O'Neill was announced, and the official photos gave us a glimpse of another sparkling diamond. This one appears to be an Asscher cut diamond on a diamond band, and it automatically jumped up on my list of favorite royal e-rings. Oh yes, I'd wear one exactly like this in a heartbeat.
Crown Princess Märtha, Queen Sonja, and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway
Crown Prince Harald of Norway gave Sonja Haraldsen an interesting diamond and ruby ring that belonged to his late mother, Crown Princess Märtha. Sonja carried on the tradition, giving the ring to her son Haakon when he proposed to Mette-Marit Tjessem Høiby. Mette-Marit wears it occasionally these days; she is more consistently spotted in a three stone diamond ring usually said to have been a gift from her husband.
Princess Märtha Louise of Norway
Märtha Louise's ring seems a bit unconventional to traditional tastes, but that's pretty fitting for the princess herself. The white gold ring studded with diamonds forming lilies was designed by fiancé Ari Behn's grandfather, Andreas Solberg. Ari has one too, but Märtha's includes two additional tiny ruby hearts.
Queen Margrethe of Denmark
This Van Cleef & Arpels ring features two entwined large diamonds - unusual and a bit over the top, just like its wearer Queen Margrethe, and well chosen by her equally interesting husband, Prince Henrik.
Crown Princess Mary of Denmark
Mary Donaldson's engagement ring from Crown Prince Frederik is in the colors of the Danish flag: an emerald cut diamond flanked by emerald cut rubies. She wore it like that, alongside her diamond wedding band, for several years; and then, in early 2012, she upgraded. The ring now includes an extra diamond on either side of the rubies (the bottom close up, above), which I think makes it look a little more complete. A lovely design change.
Alexandra, Countess of Frederiksborg
Flag rings run in the family, apparently. Frederik's brother Prince Joachim presented his first wife, Alexandra Manley, with a faceted center diamond with a cabochon ruby on either side, set in 18 carat gold. Joachim and Alexandra are now married to other people, of course, and Alexandra has a diamond ring surrounded by diamond bands from her second husband, Martin Jørgensen.
Princess Marie of Denmark
Joachim wasn't done giving flag rings, though. His second wife, Marie Cavallier, received a literal interpretation of the flag of her home country, France: one sapphire, one diamond, and one ruby on an intricate wide gold band from Mette Rosgaard (who frequently uses the giraffe-like pattern of the band). Marie does not wear it all the time, but she does use it. It is, by far, my least favorite royal engagement ring...sometimes the inspiration is just a touch too literal.
Which one is your favorite?

Temperature Measurement of Single Levitated Microparticles Using Stokes/Anti-Stokes Raman Intensity Ratios
Applied Spectroscopy, Vol. 48, Issue 12, pp. 1498-1505 (1994)
Acrobat PDF (966 KB)
A method has been developed to determine the temperature of single microparticles levitated in an electrodynamic balance. Particle temperatures were ascertained from the measured intensities of the Stokes and anti-Stokes Raman spectra. Temperatures near ambient were obtained for titanium dioxide and calcium nitrate microparticles with the use of a Raman-based calibration of the optical system to correct for wave-length-dependent effects. Higher temperatures were also measured with the use of a carbon dioxide infrared laser to electromagnetically heat the particle. In an effort to minimize particle instabilities caused by the heating beam, the Gaussian intensity profile of the beam was modified with an axicon beam expander to produce a doughnut-like intensity distribution. The temperature measurement technique and quantitative Raman composition analysis were applied to study dehydration of a calcium nitrate tetrahydrate particle.

dc.description.abstract | Detecting Earnings Management Using Neural Networks. Trying to balance between relevant and reliable accounting data, generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) allow, to some extent, the company management to use their judgment and to make subjective assessments when preparing financial statements. The opportunistic use of the discretion in financial reporting is called earnings management. There have been a considerable number of suggestions of methods for detecting accrual based earnings management. A majority of these methods are based on linear regression. The problem with using linear regression is that a linear relationship between the dependent variable and the independent variables must be assumed. However, previous research has shown that the relationship between accruals and some of the explanatory variables, such as company performance, is non-linear. An alternative to linear regression, which can handle non-linear relationships, is neural networks. The type of neural network used in this study is the feed-forward back-propagation neural network. Three neural network-based models are compared with four commonly used linear regression-based earnings management detection models. All seven models are based on the earnings management detection model presented by Jones (1991). The performance of the models is assessed in three steps. First, a random data set of companies is used. Second, the discretionary accruals from the random data set are ranked according to six different variables. The discretionary accruals in the highest and lowest quartiles for these six variables are then compared. Third, a data set containing simulated earnings management is used. Both expense and revenue manipulation ranging between -5% and 5% of lagged total assets is simulated. Furthermore, two neural network-based models and two linear regression-based models are used with a data set containing financial statement data from 110 failed companies. Overall, the results show that the linear regression-based models, except for the model using a piecewise linear approach, produce biased estimates of discretionary accruals. The neural network-based model with the original Jones model variables and the neural network-based model augmented with ROA as an independent variable, however, perform well in all three steps. Especially in the second step, where the highest and lowest quartiles of ranked discretionary accruals are examined, the neural network-based model augmented with ROA as an independent variable outperforms the other models. | fi |
