Destiny Online is a 2D Fantasy MMORPG by EnjoyMMO. The graphics and gameplay in Destiny Online feels remarkably similar to other EnjoyMMO games.

The experience rate in game is fast paced, so players should be able to complete all of the newbie quests and have themselves nicely equipped within an hour or so after creating their character. The game's five playable classes are:
Warrior – Their key attributes are Strength and Vitality. They are the primary melee oriented character in Destiny Online and are capable of dealing large amounts of physical damage. They enjoy the highest HP in the game and high physical attack power.
Swordman – Their key attributes are Strength and Stamina. They are capable of dealing of dealing long-range physical attacks. They use long swords and other weapons which have a long reach. They are very similar to Warriors.
Mage – Their key attribute is Intelligence. They are the primary offensive spell casting class in Destiny Online. They have low HP but can devastating amounts of damage with their spells.
Taoist – Their key attributes are Intelligence and Spirit. They play a lot like mages, except their spells curse their opponents rather than lots of damage. They rely more on their pets than other classes.
Priest – Their key attribute is spirit. They are a supportive class capabable of both buffing their team mates as well as healing them.

ClassicsOnline Home » BOTTESINI COLLECTION (The), Vol. 5 > Review List
These works for two double basses by Giovanni Bottesini date from his student days at the Milan Conservatory. The delightful Fantasia on themes of Rossini features an opening Tarantella, a lyrical middle section and a stormy finale. Passioni amorose, in three movements like the rhapsodic and pyrotechnically brilliant Concerto a Due Contrabbassi, begins with a light-hearted Allegro, followed by a lyrical Andante and a rondo Allegretto. The second of the Tre Grandi Duetti is recorded here in the original version for two three-stringed instruments.

Lenovo links with blade desktop maker
- Related Stories
NORAD gives thumbs up to blade PCsApril 17, 2005
Utility computing reaches HP PCs, printersDecember 4, 2003
Start-up brings 'blades' to the desktopSeptember 20, 2002
Under the deal, the two companies will cooperate to sell ClearCube's blade systems, initially to the customers Lenovo acquired when it bought IBM's PC unit. The units sold by Lenovo will bear ClearCube's brand. IBM Global Services already resells ClearCube desktop systems.
Similar to blade servers, blade desktops are complete desktop PCs, but instead of coming in a plastic chassis, the computers are circuit boards stuffed into a rack in a computer room. At their desk, users have only a keyboard, mouse, monitor and a networking unit that connects them to their computer.
Putting the PCs in a rack cuts support and real estate costs, according to Raj Shah, chief marketing officer of ClearCube. Several financial firms and branches of the military have installed the company's computers. (The North American Aerospace Defense Command uses them to scan the sky for incoming missiles.)
The company is also in the midst of a trial with health care specialist McKesson. At select hospitals, a swivel screen is placed in patient rooms. Patients can order movies or get information on their problems; doctors can also log in to the system with a magnetic card to retrieve patient records.
Though the market is small, it's growing rapidly, according to ClearCube. Revenue for the small company tripled last year, albeit from a small base, said Shah, and is growing in triple figures this year. Hitachi's services organization and SAIC also resell the company's computers.
So far, Hewlett-Packard is the only major computer maker with its own blade PC system, but its take on the concept has not sold particularly well, according to analysts. One reason is that the first versions relied on chips from Transmeta, the struggling processor designer.
If blades are so promising, why don't other manufacturers jump in? The management and security software layers required in blade deployments take time, energy and money, which few want to risk.
Shah also pointed out that ClearCube has about 80 patents; competitors therefore would have to figure out how to get around the company's intellectual property.
The IBM purchase marks the point of no return for Lenovo's long ambitions to become an international tech powerhouse. Except for some token sales in Italy and Southeast Asia, the company has sold PCs only in China. Even there, it has lost market share to Dell and HP in recent quarters.
The company unfurled a tablet PC back in June and said it planned to open a center to design different types of PCs for different markets such as potentially cheap PCs for places such as India.

CUMMING – The Fatal Vision goggles made Madison Higham, a junior at West Forsyth High School, act as if she had a .25 blood alcohol level.
Getting through a sobriety test was "hard and confusing," she said.
On Thursday, Feb. 24, about 70 students got a chance to feel what it's like to be drunk without the hangover. The event was part of Ford Motor Company and Governor's Highway Safety Association nationwide Driving Skills for Life tour.
The real-world presentations were to raise awareness about driver distraction and dangerous road condition skills.
Drivers like Bianca Papa, a freshman at WFHS, tried to text her mom, "hi mom, I'm texting and driving."
Ford Co. driving instructor Todd Cook told Papa to explain it to her mother later. Papa didn't get far without knocking several cones around a tight course. Student drivers were then told to drive around a course while searching for a specific radio station. That didn't go too well, either. Finally, the Fatal Vision goggles were put on and several more cones were knocked down. The advantage was the goggles only impaired their vision and not their judgment, Cook said.
Cook's message to Papa and other teen drivers: "Keep both hands on the wheel, don't play with the radio or your cellphone."
"You're doing 50-to-60-miles per hour and you cover a lot of ground out there on the highway," Cook said. "You may not get a second chance."
Ford instructor Mike Speck said that the driving skills, which are part of a $1 million 30 city national tour and funded by the Ford Fund are not meant to put fear on the students.
"We're not trying to use scare tactics, we're using statistics," Speck said. "All the decisions they make is what will determine their outcome."
Speck said car crashes are a leading cause of teenage death and many crashes could have been avoided if drivers weren't distracted and had better space management.
Students were also geared toward another driving course where they had to handle a car that would oversteer or "loose" – in racing terminology.
This simulated dangerous road conditions and students were told not to slam on the breaks – as is instinctual – when they lost control of their car.
"We're teaching them to turn their head and train them to find an exit or a safe place," said Steve Swinnerton, another driving instructor with Ford.
The hands-on message seemed to get through.
"I didn't know it when you get out of control, if you give left, you steer to the right," said Tristan Wiggins, a freshman at WFHS.
During the student's lunch period, they were given a chance to learn more about Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and pick up safety tips from Forsyth County Fire Department and Forsyth County Sheriff outreach personnel.

text: William Shakespeare wrote some of the most romantic lines the world has ever known. What better way to celebrate a wedding than with a generous helping of his timeless wisdom? No one speaks to eternal happiness and everlasting love like Shakespeare, whose words ring just as true today as they did four hundred years ago. This book is far more than just a plain list of quotes you've no doubt heard before. Over one hundred selections have been chosen specifically for their usefulness at a wedding, organized by who might say them (the happy couple, the father of the bride, or even the guests themselves), when to say them (at the altar, at the reception, as a toast) and even what they mean (when it's not obvious). It's much easier for the best man to deliver a toast when he knows what he's saying and is not just reading from an index card he copied off the internet, no matter how cool and romantic it sounds.

TEARS streaming down his face, EastEnders tough guy Steve Owen begs on his knees for his wife to stay.
But furious Mel has had enough of her scheming hubby and calmly hands back her wedding ring.
Albert Square fans can see Steve, played by Martin Kemp, get his comeuppance in tonight's episode.
He lied to Mel (Tamzin Outhwaite) that his nightclub had been signed over to her. He also neglected to tell her of his half-stake in the Queen Vic.
Then she discovered his fling with Karen. In a fit of rage, Mel takes a torch to the nightclub and Steve fears she's trapped inside. But when he finds her his joy is short lived.
Last night Tamzin, off for two months to film her new BBC drama Red Cap, said: "Steve was a rat and fully deserved it."

Assemblyman Scott Wilk on Chloride Town hall meeting on June 15th…
"Myself and assemblyman Steve Fox will be holding a town hall meeting on Saturday June 15 at the Activity Center." All the public hearings have been on weekday nights, so we have set up one on a weekend so people can come to it.

You can learn more a bout this issue by listening to the whole podcast or reading a related story: Wilk, Knight Ask State For More Time On Chloride Issue
Wilk On Amendments to improve a student protection bill that was shot down…
Bill AB1221 was presented but killed because there was another version AB 1225, and this other bill was not real reform. We are teaming up with people who are committed to changing the laws and getting rid of bad teachers. We will be amending it and making it even tighter than it is now, making it harder for people not to vote for it.
Assembly Scott Wilk talks about Town hall meetings about health care change…
The Affordable Care Act comes out in 11/14 although the insurance exchange comes on october first of this year. Obviously it is a very complicated issue. I sit on the heath community, it is like a rubix cube piecing all of this together. I will have professionals sit down and have an hour lecture followed by a Q&A. I don't have any finalised dates yet, but it will be towards the end of july.

Last fall my lawn was thin and patchy. I hoped that it would fill in this spring but it is March and it hasn't improved much. What do I do now?
If bluegrass lawns were damaged last fall and are patchy or thin, then a spring fertilization is recommended to encourage growth and increased density; bluegrass spreads via underground rhizomes. Apply 0.5-0.75 pounds of actual nitrogen per 1,000 square feet now, but avoid heavy spring fertilizer applications, which can lead to summer lawn disease problems.
If the lawn is comprised of tall fescue or perennial ryegrass and is thin or patchy, it must be overseeded, and March is the best time to accomplish this. If it is later than March, you may want to wait until fall to make lawn repairs rather than chance a late seeding.
In these lawns, it's a good idea to apply a pre-emergent crabgrass control product, at least to deter this weed and a few others, from invading the patchy areas.
My spring flowering shrubs just don't bloom like I think they should. I'm doing some pruning in late winter or early spring, just to shape them up — am I doing something wrong?
You may be pruning off flower buds, which accounts for your poor showing. If your plants bloom on "old" wood, then pruning in late fall or early spring removes some of the buds. A good rule of thumb is that for woody plants that normally bloom before about mid-June, prune after flowering (this will depend a bit on the season's weather). This includes the following common shrubs; forsythia, honeysuckle, viburnums, serviceberry, mock orange, flowering quince, Itea, magnolias, lilac, weigela, firethorn, rhododendron and azaleas, a few of the spireas, and spicebush.
Small ornamental trees that bloom on old wood include redbud, fringetree, Kousa and Cornelian cherry dogwoods, smoketree, crabapples, flowering cherry and plum, and mountain ash. If in doubt about when to prune a plant, check a reference to find out whether the plant blooms on old or new wood.
I live in a new subdivision. The topsoil is horrible, making it difficult to maintain a healthy, green lawn. I use the recommended lawn care applications but they provide only a temporary fix. How can I improve the existing topsoil? Should I add another layer of new top soil over the existing grass?
Ideally, the soil should have been improved before the new lawn was seeded or sodded. You were probably left with subsoil after construction, which is high in clay content and low in nutrients and organic matter. At this point, you can work on improving the soil, but it will likely take several years.
Core aerating the lawn may help and it can be done annually. This practice improves the top couple of inches of soil and over time, will improve drainage, aeration, root growth, water and fertilizer infiltration, etc.
Another option for soil improvement is topdressing, but this should only be done in conjunction with core aerating. In this process, an eighth inch layer of topsoil is applied over the lawn. This light dressing of soil improves the environment at the soil surface and facilitates microbial activity. The applied soil should be similar in texture to the native soil to prevent drainage problems, while peat moss or other high organic materials should not be used, as these products will add to thatch buildup. Topdressing should not be added on top of an existing thatch layer, which would create a layering problem. Though topdressing is an option, it is not easy for most homeowners to do.
When should I apply spring fertilizers to my lawn?
Most homeowners place too much emphasis on spring and summer lawn fertilization. Some fertilizer is needed during spring and summer, however, over-application can cause diseases and other problems and result in "summer lawn nightmares." If the lawn was fertilized late last fall, then you need to make only one application in late April or early May, using three-quarters of a pound of actual nitrogen per thousand square feet. If no late fall fertilizer was applied, you should make two applications this spring; one the first week in April, and the other about the last week in May, using three-quarters of a pound of actual nitrogen per thousand square feet each time.
I want to learn how to calibrate my lawn spreader so that I can use cheaper, off-brand fertilizer not specifically formulated for use with my brand name spreader. How can I do this?
Calibration means finding the spreader setting that delivers the desired quantity of fertilizer over a given area. There are two types of spreaders, drop and rotary. Rotary spreaders cover a wider area more rapidly than drop spreaders, but both will do a good job if properly calibrated. Both have a feed regulatory device that regulates the amount of fertilizer applied to the lawn. Higher numbers or letters typically increase the fertilizer output.
Using the actual nitrogen formula, you can figure out how much fertilizer needs to be applied per 1000 square feet of lawn. The challenge is to apply the correct quantity of fertilizer evenly. One option is to measure an area that's 1,000 square feet (such as on a driveway), approximately 30 feet by 33.5 feet. As an example, you've determined that you should apply 5 pounds of fertilizer per 1,000 square feet; put 5 pounds of fertilizer in the spreader, select a setting, and run the spreader over the area. You may run out of fertilizer before you run out of driveway, or have fertilizer left. Adjust the spreader setting up or down, sweep up the fertilizer, and apply it again. It may take several trial runs to adjust the spreader correctly. You will have reached the correct setting when all of the fertilizer is applied over the 1,000 square foot area. Keep a record of the spreader setting for various brands or analyses of fertilizers, based on the percentage of nitrogen in the fertilizer.
I have taxus and junipers approaching 8 feet in height. Will they recover and grow back if cut them to about one foot from the ground, or will this excessive amount of leaf removal kill the shrubs?
The pruning you describe would be considered drastic for these evergreens, and may result in loss of the plant(s). Generally, when you wish to reduce the size of an overgrown shrub (rejuvenation pruning), pruning is done over a three year period to gradually return the plant to a useful size. These two species of plants have different characteristics that you should consider as you prune. Yews (Taxus) have dormant buds along older stems that will eventually break and grow new stems and foliage, and are more likely to recover from heavy pruning than junipers. Junipers can be cut back to green tissue, but are much less likely to come back from older wood that does not have any green foliage associated with it. Keep these things in mind as you prune. You could reduce the size of these shrubs by a third starting early next spring, and continue with rejuvenation pruning over the following couple of years to try to reduce the size of the shrubs.
Is April too early to apply mulch to shrub borders and flower beds? How much should be applied?
It is best to wait for the soil to warm and dry out before applying spring mulch to landscape trees and shrubs. If applied to cool soil, it keeps the soil cool and slows root growth. Late May or early June is the usual time for application in central Ohio; apply a little earlier in southern Ohio and a little later in northern Ohio.
Don't overdo mulch; a two inch layer is sufficient over heavy clay soils to conserve moisture, suppress weeds, and moderate soil temperature. Greater depths could cause problems for plants by keeping soil too wet or reducing oxygen availability to root systems. Avoid placing mulch against the trunks and stems of trees and shrubs, and keep it a few inches away from crowns and stems of non-woody plants.

continued The Allens use the firewood for an outdoor wood furnace to heat their home. The furnace sits in front of their house, between two open-air woodsheds. She walked past the furnace, billowing with smoke, and laid a tray of refreshments on the tailgate of a pickup truck, next to gas cans for the chain saws. She made lunch for the volunteers.
"I just really want to thank these guys," Julie said, with a tear running down her cheek. "It makes me proud to know that there are so many people that care about my husband."
Asked about the festivities up the road, of paddlers and townspeople enjoying the freedom of the White Water Derby while Matthew is in Afghanistan fighting for that freedom, Julie thought about her family and the sacrifices American servicemen make for their country.
"To me it just proves that people here realize that there is a sacrifice always by everybody, the family, the men that are there, the communities that suffer because they are gone," Julie said. "But the whole reason they are there is so people can be happy here at home."
In small communities like North River, fire companies and other service groups look out for each other. They're family.
"At the firehouse, we're as close as any brothers or anything else," John Donohue said. "What the fire companies do is an outstanding job, and when you lose one of your members for a year or two so he can go and defend the country, I think this is probably one of the nicest things we've ever done."
Fire company members who helped the Allens included Rick Rogo, Jim Harrison, Will Davis, Scott Phillips, Fred Mors, John Donohue and Juan Pesquera.
