Global mod for STALKER SHoC, intended to recreate a highly atmospheric Zone with highest possible quality, stability of the game, rich gameplay and loyalty to the canons of the Sci-Fi genre. The upcoming 0.6.9.3 version will be soon available. Current version is 0.6.9.2 R2 - you can get it in the downloads section.

9/10 - Looks beautiful and creates something never done before
I have played up until Rostok, more info will be applied later.
Configurable options and advanced gfx
Fantastic new graphics
Wide range of weapons, items and armour
New quests, and quest bug fixes
Better rewards
Balanced artifacts and medicine
New ammo types
New icons make the game a real masterpiece
No CTDs (atleast not yet)
Bloodsuckers can be killed while in cloak (yes!)
Iron sights for all weapons have been perfected unlike many mods around
Rad tablets etc need fluid to use, otherwise you die, this makes no sense at all, you don't need fluid its just easier to swallow that way. A game that focuses on survival cannot use up all his water;)
Shotguns used to be the prime of killing mutants, but due to their high health, you need to offload 10 shots into a single fleshy just to kill it...
Medkits are scarce and don't restore as much health as the vanilla game.
The mutants that spawned in Agroprom underground was kind of overkill, 3 bloodsuckers and 2 controllers.
The screen blood around the edges is really annoying, but I guess you need it due to no health bar.
The auto-turrets in military occupied areas are just stupid and annoying, it defys the lore of the game. The military were meant to be unorganised and not up to date.

This is the best stalker mod i've had the plesure of playing,it feels like your playing stalker for the first time.The combat Ai of this mod is deadly, way above any thing else i have come across in any other mod,it has a dynamic Ai life that actualy works,it's remarkably stable,belive it or not my first play session was over 34 hours with only one ctd!.But for me the combat Ai seals the deal for me on this mod,you will be playing this for a long time!.An excellent mod.10/10

This review may contain spoilers
This is one of the best SoC mods I have played, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to experience a truly scary and challenging Zone. The amount of atmosphere added by the harder hitting mutants and psy emissions is almost unreal. You can't run far without running out of breath. Ammo is hard to find and very expensive, and since the mutants are now tougher, you are forced to avoid them or be prepared to run out of money while buying more ammo.
And if the mod is too hard, or you prefer not having to change your underwear constantly, don't worry, a nice configurator is included to add/remove features from the mod and tweaking stuff to your liking.
The reason I didn't give it a perfect score is due to some bugs, design choices and oversights which are too major to brush off.
1) Repetitive spawns. There seems to be a controller in the Bloodsucker Village every single time you enter Army Warehouses. Same goes the chimera spawn outside the south entrance to the Bar.
2) The mod cannot be considered stable, but it isn't as bad as STALKERSOUP last time i played it. I've had 4-5 CTD's during my playthrough so far.
3) The turrets. I honestly can't understand why on Earth they were added to the game. This is not the way to ramp up the difficulty even further. Having aimbot-MG's fire at you as soon as you enter their killzone is IMO stupid and makes fetching the military documents a real pain.
4) I personally think the Agroprom Underground section was made pointlessly hard. You'll have to face 3 bloodsuckers and 2 controllers in total. The bloodsuckers are pretty easy to take care of (after all, you can camp on boxes and take them out safely), but the two controllers spawning in at the beginning and the end of the last stretch of tunnel is not just scary as hell (which is a good thing), but also damn frustrating for the player. It is really, really hard to take them out without grenades, since they make you drop your gun, which usually leads to your death.

Have finished the main plot.
Very nice ending with destroying the c-consciousness.
Mod is awesome. Many great ideas. The introduction mod with the Stone Blood effect motivates the player.
And I very like the Dynamic gloss factor changing during rain. Adds immersion. The turning into a Zombie makes the game more interesting.
Psi zones, Horror time and the many configurable setting via OGSE launcher are simply amazing.
In short, this Mod is quality. I had under 10 crashes during complete playthrough. Plus the two crashes with Ghost and Kruglov.
Very good job. 10/10

With just 13.7 seconds remaining in the game, Edison took a critical two-point lead. The Eagles would get one last opportunity to tie it or win the game. But thanks to solid defense and Nat Harrison's rebound with just under two seconds to play, the Eagles season ended abruptly.
After grabbing the rebound, Harrison protected the ball until the buzzer sounded. But a foul was called just before time expired as the refs put .8 seconds back on the clock and Harrison on the line to shoot two.
"I grab all rebounds," Harrison said of his huge rebound after Clovis West missed a three to win the game. "I practice on my free throws everyday just for that situation."
How confident was he in his ability to seal the game from the free-throw line?
"100%, 200%, it was automatic," proclaimed Harrison. "I knew I was going to make them."
After ending a disappointing season on the gridiron, where Edison did not even win its league title, Harrison has a positive aspect on basketball.
"Valley is ours," Harrison said of the Tigers chances of winning the Central Section D1 Valley title. "I have been feeling like it since football season was over. That's all I come out here for is to win."
Nevertheless, Harrison's football career is far from over as he signed with Fresno State early this month to play under head coach Pat Hill. But like Friday night was, any game from this point on can be his final one as a Tiger.
"I'm loving it," Harrison exclaimed after extending his season by at least one more game. "I know I'm not going to get anymore basketball games, so I got to get as many as I can now."
Edison will face No. 9 seed Buchanan next week. The Bears upset top seeded Clovis East on Friday night.
Fellow future Bulldog Greg Smith attended Friday night's game to watch his old school play. The Phoenix (AZ) Westwind Academy standout is in town for his official visit to Fresno State.
He talked with BB.C briefly following Friday night's game – .

Go To: Money Management
The following tips are designed to help you reduce your debt quickly and economically.1. Create a Budget and Stick With It.Your budget should include all of your current expenses. Request a copy of the Personal Budget Planner for more information on creating a budget.2. Don't Borrow Additional Money to Pay off Debts or Bills.3. Cut Expenses.Get this number by analyzing your budget and determining where reductions can be made (e.g., eating out, buying snacks and lunch at work, going to the movies, etc.). Once you have determined how much you plan to cut, use this "found" money to pay down the balances on your debts.4. Optimize Your Monthly Payment.Pay the maximum amount towards your highest interest rate debts. Pay the minimum amount on all other debts.5. Ask for Reduced Interest Rates.Some creditors, especially credit card companies, will reduce your interest rates if you just call and ask. If you receive offers for other credits cards with lower interest rates in the mail, use those offers as leverage when you are re-negotiating your rates with your current creditors.6. Set Goals and Priorities.Determine what's important. When you prepare to buy something ask yourself if this purchase is in line with the priorities you have set and will it help you reach your goal or delay it.Check out the website http://quicken.intuit.com/. This site provides a free Debt Reduction Planner that allows you to determine the amounts you should be paying towards each of your debts and calculates the money you will save by paying your debts in the recommended order.

Doody's Review ServiceReviewer: Willem J de Villiers, MD, PhD, MHCM (University of Kentucky College of Medicine)
Description: This is a comprehensive education guide for patients suffering from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). It is written in simple, but not condescending, language and I can highly recommend it to IBS patients who are seeking to "conquer IBS" and who want to be "liberated from suffering from chronic stomach or bowel problems."
Purpose: The author is an authority on the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of irritable bowel syndrome and he has compiled a wonderful layperson's guide to this vexing disorder. It provides an easy to understand, state-of-the-art update on current evidence-based data on IBS pathophysiology and therapy. There are numerous pearls of wisdom in this book and IBS patients and gastroenterologists alike will benefit by browsing through the different chapters.
Audience: The guide is aimed at the layperson suffering from IBS. The level of complexity is appropriate and the writing style is engaging, without being condescending. The author is an undisputed authority in this field and his contagious enthusiasm makes the guide a pleasure to read.
Features: Nine chapters address common patient questions such as the nature of IBS, its incidence and diagnosis, the evaluation of evidence-based effective therapy and the role(s) of diet and exercise. Other important chapters describe alternative treatments, over-the-counter medications, and prescription therapies and a final chapter looks at future developments and offers a guide to support organizations. The no-nonsense style, superb illustrations and useful tables, appendixes and glossary all enhance the guide's comprehensive nature. I particularly enjoyed the section on the placebo effect of medications and treatments in IBS.
Assessment: This is a wonderfully informative guide for patients with IBS and should also be read by gastroenterologists and GI fellows-in-training. It is comprehensive, yet written in a simple and elegant style. I would highly recommend this guide and will obtain several copies to make available to my patients.

Streamlined building law under way
A Bill which will speed-up the building consent process and reduce costs, is set to become law after completing its passage through Parliament.
Building and Construction Minister Maurice Williamson says the Building Amendment Bill (No 2) is an "important first step" to reform the Building Act 2004, but adds "there is more to be done."
The Bill introduces multiple-use building approvals – a measure that will reduce duplication and fast-track the consent process for group home builders who build homes on sites across the country using the same, or similar, designs.
It also defines a new streamlined process to manage minor variations to building plans after the consent is issued, saving time for applicants and councils. And it makes project information memorandums, known as PIMs, voluntary.
"The Building Amendment Bill comes at a very important time for the building and construction sector," Mr Williamson says.
"The downturn is continuing and building firms need as much help as they can get. The Bill will help boost efficiency and greater productivity at a time when it is most needed. And if builders pass on cost savings, then consumers will benefit too.
"Reducing building delays and costs is an important first step but it doesn't go far enough. Everyone in the sector is going through tough times - homeowners, developers and builders – so there's more to be done.
"Preliminary work on a wider review of the Building Act is progressing and I hope to be able to announce further streamlining measures in due course," Mr Williamson says.
The review's terms of reference is currently being finalised but it is expected to cover:
- What needs to be consented based on actual levels of risk and complexity, with the aim of reducing the amount of building work requiring a building consent.
- Taking a good hard look at the underlying risk and liability framework in the sector.
- Assessing how the role of Building Consent Authorities might change if more responsibility is transferred to builders, designers, and consumers.
- Exploring the extent to which licensed building practitioners could self-certify their work.
- Examining the role that home warranty insurance might play in such an environment.
- Removing unnecessary building control regulation
- A copy of the Building Amendment Bill is electronically available at www.legislation.govt.nz
In addition to the areas highlighted above, the Government will be looking at a number of non-regulatory ways to improve performance, such as:
- Supporting councils to work smarter using technology and leveraging the same technology to reduce design and building costs.
- Putting greater focus on information and education, so people make informed choices rather than having them made for them.
- Facilitating and incentivising Building Consent Authorities to consolidate and rationalise their functions.
- Getting better outcomes from the increased investment in trade training.
Work on implementing the national multiple-use consents is being progressed with urgency and is expected to be operational early next year.

Considerations when deploying Exchange on an Active/Active cluster
Article ID: 815180 - View products that this article applies to.
On This Page
This article discusses some of the things to consider when you deploy Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server or Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 in an Active/Active clustered environment.
Microsoft does not recommend the deployment of Exchange 2000 servers or Exchange 2003 servers in an Active/Active clustered environment. Additionally, Exchange 2000 and Exchange 2003 are supported as Active/Active in two-node clusters only. Clusters that have more than two nodes must be Active/Passive. For more information about this subject, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/329208/ )Exchange virtual server limitations on Exchange 2000 clusters and Exchange 2003 clusters that have more than two nodes
In an Active/Active cluster, when one node fails or is taken offline, the other node in the cluster takes over for the failed node. However, because the failover causes the remaining node to take on additional processing operations, the overall performance of your Exchange 2000 cluster or Exchange 2003 cluster may be reduced. For performance, availability, and scalability reasons, Active/Passive cluster configurations are a better option than Active/Active configurations.
In a typical Active/Active cluster configuration, each node owns one Exchange virtual server. However, if the number of Exchange virtual servers in the cluster is greater than or equal to the number of nodes in the cluster, and even when all the Exchange virtual servers are owned by only one node in the cluster, the cluster is still considered an Active/Active cluster. To migrate from an Active/Active cluster configuration to an Active/Passive configuration, you must remove the second Exchange virtual server. For information about how to remove an Exchange virtual server, see the "Removing an Exchange virtual server from a Cluster" section in the Deploying Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server Clusters Exchange Online Book. To view this Exchange Online Book, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
Sizing Active/Active clustersWhen you plan your Exchange 2000 topology using Active/Active clusters, you must consider the following important constraints:

Up-front Disclosure on Data & Functionality:
Airport status coverage is for the US only. Detailed maps are not available for all airports, but we are continuously adding new ones. Airport information, particularly concerning amenities and parking fees, change rapidly. We are dedicated to making iFly the best resource available for airport information, but sometimes there might be a delay in updating our data. Additionally, many airports simply don't provide detailed information in a timely manner after they make a change. We are constantly updating our data to reflect the most relevant information possible.
Flight tracking is subject to the timely delivery of data to iFly from the FAA, the airports, and the airlines. At rare times these data sources are not all in sync with each other, causing a conflict in the flight status of a particular flight.
Additionally, GPS or cellular coverage may not provide sufficient In-Terminal navigation capabilities in all terminals.
Thanks for your understanding!

Feedback and Support
We encourage feedback on any aspect of iFly. Please also report any data anomalies so we can quickly fix or update them. Thanks!

What's New in Version 3.1?
We improved our already best-in-class airport maps by adding granularity down to gate level at many airports. Look for the app to drop a red push pin at your gate.
We cleaned up the app and made many UI (user interface) improvements including:
- More filters to help you quickly screen for what you want
- New icons to make the app more intuitive
- Ability to delete saved pages
(16 stars)
Very useful. Takes too long to load especially if you need it. Suggest to have SD storage Able to save/delete airports & airlines when needed. Some of these airports/airlines you'll never use. Good potential, keep improve it.
(16 stars)
Stayed on loading for 2 minutes. Cache had loaded 75mb and nothing ever pulled up. Tried reseting app and clearing cache and force stopping it. Never worked.
(16 stars)
I'm better of visiting the airport's website than using this app.
(16 stars)
Took forever to load. Uninstalled after 2 used.
(16 stars)
It takes some getting use to, and the maps aren't very clear. But, not bad to have in a pinch.
(16 stars)
Ultra slow to load but still useful.

Ireland Base with Kids
Hello, taking my family to Ireland for the Gathering. After our reunion we plan to spend a week or so traveling the Southwest part of the country. I currently have B&B's reserved for two nights each in Dingle, Kinsale and Galway. I am torn about whether I should just rent a cottage centerally (e.g. Tipperary) and use as a base. Thoughts on the best Ireland experience?

Amazing catch preserves Padres' win
Quentin hit his two-run homer in the third. Guzman added his third pinch-hit homer of the season in the seventh to extend the Padres' lead to 10-3.
Alexi Amarista had three singles for the Padres. Everth Cabrera, Quentin, Alonso, Venable and reserve catcher Rene Rivera all had two hits, with Amarista and Rivera driving in runs and Quentin getting a third RBI on a sacrifice fly in the first.
Edinson Volquez allowed three runs, including a pair of solo homers, over 5 1/3 innings. But the Brewers stormed back against the Padres' bullpen, scoring two runs in the sixth and five in bottom of the seventh (after the Padres had scored four in the top of the inning) on eight hits.

The Idler Wheel Is Wiser than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More than Ropes Will Ever Do

Jul 10, 2012With a confectionery of similarly colored assortments, The Idler Wheel... retrenches most of her past output, whether its wistful balladeering or sultry jazz, as a means of expelling a truly uncharacteristic voice.
Jun 27, 2012Handsome almost in spite of itself, The Idler Wheel is poignant, nuanced and quietly unforgettable.
Jun 25, 2012In The Idler Wheel's ten phenomenal songs, Fiona Apple seems to lay everything out on the table.
Jun 22, 2012Another singular album from a truly idiosyncratic voice, Apple has once again invited us into her lushly conflicted inner monologue.
Jun 19, 2012To her immense credit, Apple never flinches at such uneasy insights and insoluble contradictions, which makes The Idler Wheel a tough but rewarding listen.
Jun 19, 2012For all the foot-stomping vitriol that seeps out here and there, The Idler Wheel... is the sound of a brilliant songwriter putting away childish things, and waiting tensely for what comes next.
Jun 19, 2012The result is an album that was absolutely worth the seven-year wait, not to mention the mountain of hype atop which Apple has sat since her big comeback at SXSW in March.
Jun 19, 2012Apple has been here before, but it makes her new album no less arresting.
Jun 19, 2012It's essential 2012 listening for anyone interested in popular music as art.
Jun 19, 2012The beauty of The Idler Wheel… is how it transmits each of those feelings in excruciating, frank, and lovely detail.
Jun 19, 2012Her fourth album is arguably her funniest ... but also her leanest and most melodically daring.
Jun 18, 2012"Left Alone" is nothing short of a vocal masterclass. It has the singer going from the verses' rap-like cadence to the hook's curlicue jazz stylings to the operatic long notes of the bridge-- notes that slowly curdle underneath their own exasperated weariness.
Jun 18, 2012The Idler Wheel succeeds in creating a singular world more daring than any of Apple's previous records and one of the most daring pop records in recent history.
Jun 18, 2012It makes for a raw, unsettling listen, tempered by shots of dark humor.
Jun 15, 2012The Idler Wheel… is a really incredible album, where Apple has quite cleverly developed musically in just the right way, creating something utterly distinct and different to her earlier work whilst still retaining all the characteristics that won fans over to begin with.
Jun 15, 2012Stripped of all her carnivalesque accouterments, Fiona Apple remains as rich and compelling as she ever was, perhaps even more so.

This recipe is a really easy, and great for lunches.And is really yummy, it has a creamy taste to it.. Great recipe..
Yes they are mild but they were perfect for what I needed. Will make again.
Yummy! And very easy! I added a generous grinding of pepper, as well as salt, garlic and a little Parmesean to the mixture. I also added the grated cheese to the mixture, still sprinkling a little on top. So yummy and moreish and super easy!
Nice, but the creamed corn is very mild in flavour. Definitely add some salt & pepper. Have tried adding capsicum, but that was a shade too strong, so I think Ill try some tinned corn and some chopped bacon next time. Great for a party. There was certainly no leftovers.
Loved these really tasty and easy!! I made them with spinach, corn and red onion. Everyone loved them!
These quiches were easy to make and travelled well. I took them on a picnic with friends. Although everyone enjoyed them, I think the recipe could be improved with a little seasoning. I would recommend that you add salt and pepper to the raw mix.
I make these by the oven full! These are the easiest most delicious things to make! I use bacon, spinach, tomato, onion, chicken, garlic and many other handy ingredients to make multiple varieties! So convinient, so flexible, love them!
These are so easy and very tasty! I have also made these by using milk instead of cream and baking them without the pastry base - my 10month old loves them like this!
omg my girls love these little school lunchtime snacks. their lunch box's come home empty... thankyou greate taste!
These were so delicious! My kids scoffed them, especially my 5 year old daughter. I didn't have cream, so used milk instead and they worked perfectly. Also added some chopped ham on top. Delicious! Will be making these for lunches regularly!
Oh also forgot to say that I used chives instead of green onions as well.
Fantastic recipe, super easy and delicious!
Great recipe! I was invited to a BBQ and because I dont eat meat decided to bring something vegetarian. I added some diced green and red capsicum to the recipe. Will definitely be making these again!
Taste was sensational, and very quick to mix up etc. However found the filling a little on the runny side. Just felt like it needed thickening up a little. And did anyone try making them without the pastry case - do they work?
Great base recipe. I added some cooked diced bacon and some seeded mustard. Big hit with everyone.
Made these with puff pastry as suggested for my daughters 3rd birthday. Very, very easy and very tasty. Everyone loved them. Should have made a second batch. Will be using again and again. My dad who is a chef liked them too. Simple, quick, tasty, popular.
im not a fan of creamed corn but this got great reviews so i tried it lol still not a fan of creamed corn
YUM YUM YUM!! Everyone loves these and they are super easy to make. I added bacon pieces last time. They are best warm but also great cold for picnics and school recesses
Soo simple and easy to make! Have made them 3 times over the last 2 weeks with different flavours each time. Using the eggs, cream, onion and corn as the base and adding anything else you may like. Some of the ingredients we have used - turkey, mushrooms, feta, tomato, zucchini etc all were fantastic and enjoyed by everyone :-)
Used puff pastry. Got a bit panicked when I saw them puffing up in the oven, thought it would be a disaster but they were beautiful, fool proof recipe.
Used puff pastry & added ham to some for the meat eaters. Served them at a party, a huge hit!
I loved these and so did two of my girlfriends who are quite picky eaters. I will make them again and maybe try another flavour next time too. Perhaps ham and tomato.
I did this in a regular muffin tin. Ran out of shortcrust and used some puff pastry which I acutally preferred. The kids LOVED these! I used milk with a teaspoon of flour instead of the cream.
Used two thirds of a 425gm can corn and it was fine. Used slightly more cheese and was yum.
Fantastic recipe, quick and easy to make and super delicious. Kids love them and my 6 year old loved helping to make them. If you have to 'bring a plate' to something - this is the one to bring!
These were YUMMY! My little 2 year old couldn't stop eating them :) I substituted the Short Crust for Puff Pastry and used a small brown onion instead. They worked out really nice. Definitely making them again!!

Area Description: Nishi-Ogikubo is situated in a perfect location to be described as an "urban escape" and yet, provides proximity and smooth access to the major sites in Tokyo such as, Shinjuku, Kichijoji and Shibuya. The nearest station, JR Nishi-Ogikubo, is 3 minute walk from the apartment by getting through the 24 hour open supermarket, which is just around the corner of the apartment. Chuo Sobu line makes a stop every few minutes and then it only takes 12 minutes to get to JR Shinjuku station, the busiest station in the world.
The area is home to many educational institutions, antique shops, second hand shops, grocery supermarkets and local shops; A quiet and safe, family friendly location where you can take a rest after a busy day touring.
Just a note to say how much we enjoyed our stays in the two apartments this month for our son's wedding celebrations, especially the 'roomy' at the top
** HomeAway.com shuts down HomeAwayConnect.com (formerly Rentors.org) on the 31st of January 2014, as a result of this, we copied and pasted from our previous guest comments. The Owners, Michael and Koko LiveInAsia.com by The Vacance.com
Was greeted at the train station. On the way to apartment (only 3 minutes from train station) many convenient things were pointed out (places to eat, antique shops, karaoke, shopping, 24hr grocery store, etc.). Perfect location. Apartment was very clean and much larger than expected. Received many suggestions for sightseeing and also maps for train stations (Shinjuku, Tokyō, Shibuya, etc) .. very helpful not to get lost. Also received train an subway maps which were also very helpful. Highly recommend staying here.
Although we haven't stayed at Makoto San's place yet but her response and very helpful information about the place make us impressed with her. We will keep this place for future consideration when we visit Tokyo again.
I loved my stay in this apartment. It is so central and convenient. It is impossible to get lost !!!
Everything you could possibly need is already there…….just move in and enjoy Tokyo .
I hope to return in the near future. Makoto "Mac" is great. He speaks perfect english and spanish too.
He will help you in every way possible.Thank you Mac !!!!!!
Could not have asked for a better apartment to stay in for our trip to Tokyo. Great area around the apartment, and not as hectic as central Tokyo. Many shops, restaurants nearby -- and the 24 hour supermarket. Makoto was very helpful to us as well. Will rent again when we return to Tokyo.
We loved the location being close to the train station but in a nice quiet neighborhood. The supermarket is next door and open 24 hours, very convenient, we stopped there on our way back from our travels to pick up food to eat at the apartment. Makoto met us at the train station and was very helpful with tips for getting around and things to do. Apartment is clean and exactly as pictured. We would definitely recommend this property.
My family of 4, including 2 kids (aged 14 and 16) rented one of these apartments for a week's holiday in Tokyo. We enjoyed our stay very much and found the apartment to be very comfortable. It was small, but that's to be expected in Tokyo, but the Japanese brilliance for organising small spaces meant that the apartment was very functional. One child slept on the converted sofa bed, and the other on the floor on an extra futon mattress. The dining table and chairs were folded away every night to make room for this futon, but this wasn't a problem. The apartment is well equipped with kitchen items (we cooked dinner a couple of nights) and also features a washing machine. The wet clothes can be hung on the small balcony outside, which worked well. The bathroom is also very functional and makes good use of the small space with the wet room bath and shower separate from the toilet and handbasin. As noticed by other reviewers, the apartment is VERY close to the train line, but the double-glazing of windows keeps the majority of the noise outside and it wasn't a problem for us. Although the apartment is located a fair way from central Tokyo, we traveled to different areas every day, (eg Ueno, Shinjuku, Harajuku, Shibuya, Akihabara, and we took the train west to Mt Takao one day - highly recommended), so we would need to travel from wherever we stayed anyway. The trains, of course, are terrific and it was easy to get around Tokyo. The area around Nishi-Ogikubo, where the apartment is located, is superb. There are 2 amazing bakeries (St Germaine and Dila) next to the station, a karaoke place across the road from the station and, importantly for us as vegetarians, Hanada Rosso, a vegan burger cafe, just down the road. Great tasting burgers, but you may need more than one. Would also recommend Nagi Shokudo vegan restaurant in Shibuya. Our host, Makoto, was very friendly and helpful, responding to our questions by text and also (thankfully!) responding promptly to fix a blocked toilet on a Friday afternoon. All in all, a great experience. The only downside was that it took 6 weeks to receive our security deposit after our visit. The contract states that it will take 30 days, and this is even far longer than it takes to return the deposit compared to other VRBO properties I've stayed in (it usually takes less than 2 weeks). I'm unsure why LiveInAsia has this policy, but I think there's room for improvement there!

Automatic IRAS:
Lower-Earning Households Could Realize Increases in Retirement Income
GAO-13-699: Published: Aug 23, 2013. Publicly Released: Sep 23, 2013.

What GAO Found
Households without employer-sponsored defined contribution (DC) pension plans or individual retirement accounts (IRA) had lower incomes and tax rates than households with those plans, and are also likely to have limited additional resources to draw upon in retirement, according to GAO estimates. The median adjusted gross income for households without DC plans or IRAs was $32,000, compared to $75,000 for those that did have them. The median marginal tax rate for households without DC plans or IRAs was 15 percent, compared to 25 percent for households with those savings vehicles. A defined benefit (DB) pension plan could provide a monthly benefit during retirement years for those without a DC plan or IRA; however, in 2010 only 15 percent of married households and 11 percent of single households without a DC plan or IRA had a DB plan.
The existing Saver's Credit tax incentive could result in small increases in a household's retirement annuity--that is, the household's annual retirement income received from DC or DB plans. GAO estimates that, on account of this credit, the median annuity increase for households in the lowest earnings quartile ($929-34,377) would be $155. If, however, the Saver's Credit was refundable (i.e., could generate a tax refund in excess of tax paid), it could result in larger increases in households' annuities across all earnings levels, and the median increase for households in the lowest earnings quartile would be $876 per year.
Implementing automatic IRAs, unless waived by participants, could expand retirement coverage and modestly increase retirement annuities for households at all earnings levels. Specifically, 7 percent of all households could receive retirement annuities from automatic IRAs even though these households had no DB or DC plans, according to GAO's projections. Workers with DB or DC plans could also benefit from automatic IRAs at certain points in their lifetime if their jobs do not offer such plans. Moreover, low-income workers could see a sizable increase in their annuities under automatic IRAs and the existing Saver's Credit--the projected median dollar increase for these households' annual retirement annuity would be $479.
Why GAO Did This Study
Participants in DC plans and IRAs may receive tax incentives for their contributions and lower-earning households may qualify for the Saver's Credit, an additional tax incentive for their contributions. However, less than half of the workforce participates in an employer-sponsored plan and upper-income workers have been more likely to take advantage of associated tax incentives. In recent years, proposals have been put forth to modify the Saver's Credit and create automatic IRAs, under which employers who do not sponsor a plan would generally be required to offer their employees the opportunity to save in an IRA through payroll deduction. These proposals would have fiscal impacts for the federal government.
GAO was asked to review tax incentives for contributions to DC plans and automatic IRAs. GAO examined (1) the earnings and tax rates of households that do not have DC plans or IRAs, (2) the effects of the Saver's Credit on retirement income, and (3) the effects of automatic IRAs on retirement income, especially for low- and middle-income workers. GAO examined the characteristics of households that do not take advantage of these tax incentives using data from the 2010 Survey of Consumer Finances, simulated the effects of the Saver's Credit and automatic IRAs, and reviewed related proposals.
GAO is making no recommendations. GAO received technical comments on a draft of this report from the Department of Labor and the Department of the Treasury, and incorporated them as appropriate.

7 injured in San Juan City explosion
More News from INQUIRER.net
MANILA, Philippines—Seven individuals were wounded in an explosion that took place in an unidentified seafood restaurant, not a pizza store as earlier reported, on Wilson Street, San Juan City around 1 a.m. Saturday, radio reports said.
Police investigators are eyeing a gas explosion, not a bomb blast as earlier reported. Of the seven injured, two are delivery boys of Pizza Hut restaurant, which is infront of the seafood restaurant. Two are security guards of nearby establishment.
The blast also destroyed vehicles parked nearby and two passing cars, injuring two more unidentified drivers, added the reports.
The identities of the wounded are yet to be released by the police.
Interviewed by reporters, the store's security guard on duty identified only as Romulo said the restaurant was on its closing hours when the blast occurred.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
If Bill is a dream dad (he is, in fact, too good to be true, especially since he's an alcoholic writer), his adoring, capricious wife Marcella (Barbara Hershey) is a less than perfect mother. Channe fares less well with women than with men. While her mother barely notices her existence, her childhood nursemaid (Dominique Blanc) is obsessed with her in a way that makes Channe increasingly uncomfortable. No wonder that she looks exclusively to boys for attention and affection. This is Channe's story (and as the exceptionally poised 14-year-old Sobieski plays her, she has an intelligence far beyond her years), but the film as a whole is far more interested in and indulgent of the male characters than the female.
Kristofferson delivers the best performance of his career as the increasingly frail writer, and Hershey (combining her blowsy Mary Magdalene in Scorsese's Last Temptation with her jaded, narcissistic Madame Merlein Jane Campion's The Portrait of a Lady) is equally impressive. But it's Costanzo as Channe's effeminate, theatrical friend Francis who has the film's most startling moment (it goes beyond anything else in Ivory's oeuvre).
Permanent Midnight
Written and directed by David Veloz, from the book by Jerry Stahl
An Artisan Entertainment release
Opens September 18
Accompanied on the piano by his doting mother (Jane Birkin), Francis gets up in front of his high school class and sings Cherubino's aria, "Voi che sapate," from The Marriage of Figaro in a clear, infinitely expressive voice. (Costanzo, a trained countertenor, does his own singing on camera.) The aria, in which the 14-year-old Cherubino confesses his impossible love for a woman who's out of his class, is almost always sung by a woman. It's a revelation to see it performed by Costanzo, who lets his confused adolescent male sexual passion rip through Mozart's perfectly balanced melody without any violation of musical taste or style. With only two or three brief cutaways to the snickering, embarrassed students, Ivory keeps the camera on Francis as he sings directly to Channe. Francis thinks he's in love with her, but we know that what he really wants is to be her. The scene is a gender fuck that distills the sexual ambivalence running through the entire movie.
The attractive and accomplished cast also includes Isaac DeBankole (Claire Denis's great star) as the unsuccessful suitor of the nursemaid. When Bill Willis, knowing he hasn't long to live and not wanting his children to turn into "Eurotrash brats," moves his family back to the U.S., the two people who are abandoned are a 40-year-old woman who probably will never admit her lesbian desires even to herself and a 15-year-old boy who may be only months away from understanding that he's gay. The film abandons them as well. It's a canny strategy that also reveals Ivory's own points of identification. Leaving the theater, you may find yourself more troubled by the uncertain fate of these two relatively minor characters than by that of the Willis family.
While the acting ensemble is crucial, it's not the only asset here. Jean-Marc Fabre, a favorite cinematographer of new French filmmakers like Pascale Ferran and Naomi Lvovsky, shoots the city of Paris with a familiar but still enamored eye. Fabre's unstudied, seemingly improvisational style goes a long way in giving A Soldier's Daughter a look that's less kitschy than the usual Merchant Ivory. And the film has also been wonderfully costumed by Carol Ramsey--from the little dressmaker copies of Chanel suits on the lycée teachers, to the couturier version of ethnic clothing favored by Marcella, to the tatty Afghan vests and Indian scarves worn by the privileged adolescents of the 16th arrondisement. Of all the '70s revival films flooding the market, A Soldier's Daughter is the only one to get the clothes exactly right.
A swarthy man with hairy forearms and a blonde all-American beauty get to know each other in a nondescript California motel room. Between fucks, he tells her the story of his Hollywood career cut short by addiction and his descent into crack and heroin hell. They're both clean and sober--he for five weeks, she for what seems to him a miraculous seven years. It's Leaving Las Vegas in rehab with Ben Stiller in the Nicolas Cage role and E.R.'s Maria Bello looking like a pale version of Elisabeth Shue. Written and directed by David Veloz, Permanent Midnight is based on the bestselling memoir of TV writer Jerry Stahl, and the film is much more of a hack job, and less amusing. Lurching in and out of flashback, it lacks coherence in plot and character. It looks to have been re-edited out of desperation, and more than once. First-time director Veloz is unable to set a tone for the actors (Elizabeth Hurley and Janeane Garafolo are particularly strained).

A weak economy. Trouble in the Middle East. Rising gas prices. In some ways, 2012 is just like the early 1990's. Need one more item to add to that list of comparisons? Public health officials say that soda manufacturers - just like their cigarette-making cousins in the 1990's - are employing marketing tactics to sway public opinions on their products.

Full-strength Global, Loyola Meralco clash tonight
BACK at full strength, Global seeks to extend its lead at the top of the United Football League when it clashes with Loyola Meralco at Emperador Stadium in Taguig.
Fresh from a 10-day break, the two unbeaten squads collide at 7:30 p.m. in the biggest, most important match of the season so far.
Having picked up four points from its last two matches, Pasargad tries to continue its solid run against Army in the 5:15 p.m. match.
Army nailed its first win at the expense of Air Force, 3-0, just before the international break. Pasargad scored a victory over Green Archers, followed up by a fighting draw against Kaya.
Global, the reigning league champion, has won all its seven matches so far this season, the most recent a 1-0 conquest of erstwhile co-leader Stallion.
"We expect another tough battle," said coach Brian Reid. "We've got a full-strength squad, so we're hoping to perform properly and get the points."
After missing the Stallion match due to national team duties, Carli de Murga, Patrick Reichelt, Marwin Angeles, Misagh Bahadoran and Jason de Jong return to the Global side.

Snooze (alarm)

Posted 09 August 2007 - 01:10 AM
Only improvement I can think of is the unlocking of the phone as the alarm goes off, but I'm very very appreciative of the hours/days it's taken to get this far. Cheers.
Yeah, that feature is the only one on my original list that I never managed to work out how to implement.
Speaking of adding features, it's been ages since I've even looked at the code for Snooze. If anyone would like the source code to continue the development please let me know. The only condition being that you post any new versions here so that others can continue to download it for free.
Or, is there any sort of open source source control place someone can suggest that I can upload it to?
- 0
Posted 17 August 2007 - 03:50 AM
The changes are:
Vibrate again (I lost the source code for the last vibrate version, and the new code is better anyway)
Treeview file browser
Better storage card code, the program will now find the storage card independantly of where it's installed
Bug fix where a sound would keep playing when you closed the Options window
Tweak to provide a better interface when changing the alarm action
Removed check for old alarms stored in registry
I've removed the files. Please get v1.3 from the downloads section

Anyway, I fixed a major hidden bug and after testing for a week I'm pretty sure I have eliminated the lockups. If anyone else has experienced these and would like to test, I'd love to hear some feedback.
I've also added an option for 24 hour time, select it in the Options form.
Once I get a couple of confirmartions re the lockup bug I'll post 1.3.1 in the downloads section. This is intended to be the final version of Snooze (unless someone sends me some code to override the keypad lock).
File removed. please get 1.3.1 from the download section.
(I'd still appreciate comments confirming that the lockup bug is fixed, or not)

I've been trying to use Snooze on my Moto Q9H but can't seem to get any sounds to play including the default quest1.wav file. It does vibrate, just no sound. I've tried downloading .NET CF 2.0 but was prompted that it was already installed on the phone. Everything else works fine as far as I can see. Anyone have a clue why I can't get any sounds?
I have a Moto Q 9h and have the same problem... no sound. I moved sound filles in to the Programs/Snooze folder and I can see the different sound files when setting alarms but the only thing that works for me is the vibrate as well.

Posted 14 March 2008 - 04:25 AM
Snooze should give you an error if it can't find the fmod dll, so the only other thing I can think of is maybe fmod doesn't work with the Moto Q 9h, have you tried using any other programs that use fmod for sounds?
Anyone have a clue why I can't get any sounds?

Is it not compatible with Win CE 4.20 ? Is it anything I could do to get it to work ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Posted 23 June 2008 - 11:52 AM
I've never tested it on 4.20, but there's no particular reason why it shouldn't work. Have you got the .NET Compact Framework installed on the CE 4.20 phone?
Is it not compatible with Win CE 4.20 ? Is it anything I could do to get it to work ?
[Edit] Oh, I just remembered, the fmod dll included with the install is specific to WM5, for WM2003 you need to download a different fmod dll from their web page. www.fmod.com (or org, or something, just google it, lol)

Thanks for your reply. I have tried replacing fmodce.dll with few versions I found on the internet. Still no joy. I tried to install .NET CF 2.0 but it says is not compatible with the current OS.
Sorry to be a pain but I am quite a novice with smartphones.

Posted 21 August 2008 - 12:17 AM
I haven't looked at snooze's source code in ages. To tell the truth I don't even have a smartphone anymore. I'll attach the most recent source code I have incase someone wants to continue development, or have a laugh at it, steal bits from it, whatever. I did end up putting in the touchscreen support, so this version has that. It was never tested very thoroughly tho.
would it be possible to add this feature in snooze?
Outlook can make an appointment that occurs every second Friday, just make the appointment in Outlook and sync the calendar with your phone. My Nokia 6500 Slide has that feature in it's standard calendar, so you could just get one of those, it's a very nice phone.

Tried Adding my MP3 to /my documents and it showed it as an option and the alarm went off (displayed) but with no sound.
I added the folder \My Documents\My Music and added the same file to that folder and the app works like a champ.
Just thought others might like to know this.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday endorsed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's long-standing decision not to require Clean Water Act permits for stormwater that runs off logging roads. The nine-member court ruled on a 7-1 vote, with Justice Stephen Breyer recused, that the EPA's conclusion was a reasonable interpretation of the law.
The U.S. Supreme Court agreed March 18 to review a long-running battle over a 2004 management plan for 11 national forests in California's Sierra Nevada Range (U.S. Forest Service v. Pacific Rivers Council, U.S., No. 12-623, 3/18/13). The Forest Service had sought review of a February 2012 ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit that was reaffirmed by the court in June. The appeals court held that the Forest Service failed to adequately evaluate the management plan's impact on fish species.
The Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals affirmed last week that Chubb Custom Insurance Co., part of the Chubb Group of Insurance Cos., cannot recoup $2.4 million from its subrogation suit under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), commonly known as Superfund. The Ninth Circuit affirmed the decision from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. In that ruling, which was issued last year, the district court held that the two CERCLA sections that Chubb cited — Sections 107(a) and 112(c) — do not support the insurer's subrogation claim to recoup from former site owners some $2.4 million the insurer paid out to the policyholder, Taube-Koret Campus for Jewish Life.
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, the nation's largest municipal-owned utility, will eliminate its reliance on coal-fired power by 2025, the city's mayor said on Tuesday. The effort comes as the utility is working to comply with aggressive California laws aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020.
The California Supreme Court last week declined to hear an appeal filed by opponents of a planned Walmart distribution center in a Northern California city. The court's denial ends a nearly four-year-long court battle over the project, a 1.2 million square-foot warehouse and distribution center on Childs Avenue in the University Industrial Park in Merced.

California's reputation for environmental protection may be jeopardized by the lure of a $25 billion tax windfall that depends on how the state permits oil companies to take advantage of vast deposits lying two miles beneath its golden hills. The Monterey Shale formation running through the center of the state may hold 15.4 billion barrels of oil -- equivalent to five years of U.S. petroleum imports, according to a state report. Releasing it requires drillers to smash the rock by forcing millions of gallons of water and chemicals underground, a technique known as fracking. While New York and others have moratoriums on fracking as potential pollution risks are assessed, California -- the fourth-largest oil-producing state -- is working on industry- backed standards that allow it. With fracking, the Monterey Shale may yield 2.8 million jobs and $24.6 billion in state and local taxes by 2020, the University of Southern California said last week.
California Governor Jerry Brown, a prominent environmentalist, said on Wednesday the state should consider the use of "fracking" technology to develop its massive shale oil reserves and reduce reliance on imported oil.
California's four-decade-old environmental protection law has been credited with saving habitat, reducing air pollution and giving residents a voice against deep-pocketed developers. Yet this year, the California Environmental Quality Act has become a target for sweeping changes in the Legislature. Democrats who typically align with environmental groups are taking seriously the concerns that have long been raised by business leaders.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has notified the owners of a 40-year-old San Pedro tank farm, which has up to 25 million gallons of highly flammable butane, that it is prepared to sue to ensure compliance with federal law.
