shardana : good job on the costume and atmosphere, tho his face seems to have too much perspective warp somehow, like the upper part of his head tapers off and his jaw is big for his face. the pose is abit symmetrical too, maybe change the pose for the arms?
this pic in particular]. he has weird proportions tho, but he's the first guy i think of when i'm looking for broody cheesecake hehe
thanks for the comments

I updated mine of page 5, will probably not be able to push it further...I was tempted to write in some cheezy red cursive something to the effect of with love, Vlad "The Impaler" like some silly pin-up greeting card, but I fought the temptation.
Comments on some of the stuff I've seen here...feel free to embrace them or disregard them. Just typin' stuff. Apologies if I missed someone, there's a lot to sift through here...
Joey-B - Love the pose. The way the wings have been rendered gives a sense that they're vast and that their edges are beyond the picture plane. His garb looks rather Egyptian, is that a conscious stylized choice?
Lewis - I really liked your original sketch - I think the coloring is a bit over the top. Why is he that crazy color? Love the idea of the sexy vamp perched on a rooftop...
Poshspice - bummer, I was really looking forward to where you were going with him - pity that you couldn't spend more time on it. I liked the coat open, it was more in keeping with the "pin-up" aspect of it. Plus you could see that great wide sash and front fall breeches.
myalias - I love the painting style, it's very loose and messy and evocative. Yours is one of the more feminine, elfin looking vampis here.
Zephyri - spot on, looking great. When I look at the painted progress, it's almost like there's too much detail - between the tatooing and the spikey armor, is it an overload? Is it too much? I'd love to see one or the other, or a moderation between both.
Nike - total satyr pose - I'd be careful that his head doesn't get tipped to far back, so much so that you lose his eyes. I think eye contact in this composition would be great....
Occidental Martyr - Give him some sharp fangs, too!
Digitally Dumbfounded - his shoulders seem like they're over his ears - he has this shrugging hunchbacked look.
alice - love the cowboy idea - hope that you're able to complete this. I think there's some way to "sex it up," mainly in the pose or the body language? Something that takes us into "pin-up" realm?
timothee - love the pose, love the colors, love the angle, the details at his collarbone. I had originally thought to do the pointy vampire ears on mine, too, but elimintated it.
FunkdaFide - I think you're on the right track with the first one - and the wolf is a nice touch. Good eye contact, good sultry look on his face. Though I like the second one too - perhaps the victim is too extraneous? What if it's just a hot male vampire sitting in a sexy reclined pose in the chair with great film noir lighting?
ryuloulou - another great leaning-back-with-eyes-on-the-viewer pose. Keep going!
Sorkness - the March issue is already on the stands, eh? The skin whitening made me laugh. Good pose, too.
Xaya - looks more female than male to me. Maybe I'm having flashbacks to Tilda Swinton winning Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars?
Artemis IX - heheheheh "pin up" indeed. I love the finger at the lips.
n1va - I wish I could paint like that - beautiful colors. Per the anatomy, the neck keeps drawing my eye (for the male) - it's a bit "stringy" - seems like there's extra pulling and strings there, like he has a super duper sterno clyto mastoid.
Jack Frost - see above note to n1va - wow, super duper thick neck! It's like his sterno ate his lats! Other than that, gorgeous painting and great anatomy. Why go the ugly face route, though?
Felicia - fantastic face, good anatomy. I almost wish his hands were used a bit better - what if one were resting suggestively at his waistline? or at his abs? Dunno - I just wish they weren't dangling there...
Laliluleo - Great color. There's a lot going on with the costume, though. But you get props for saying "Hot Male Vampire Pinup, I can make that one of my self-portraits!" You make me want to renew my gym membership - which I haven't gone to in like seven years....
skorpi - careful on the top hat - it's looking like it's slightly more narrow at the top compared to the bottom, and with the brim looking as flat as it does, the only thing that's making me think this isn't a pilgrim hat is the lack of a buckle in front. The high collar of the cape looks to high in front, like it's going to smack his face when he moves in it. His costume screams Male Vampire Stripper Gram - I think it's the cravat and the bat belt buckle. I think it's a great tongue-in-cheek touch.
deadred - great pose. And gorgeous painting - nice and free and loose and simple. I'd give my eye teeth to paint like that! And the seared cross scar on his chest is a great touch.
lewisaurus - you've taken the rendering really far, but you've not finished the basic construction of the figure. Something about the head or face doesn't seem quite right...I can't put my finger on it, but there's something there that seems tweaked.
GeistDel - is he supposed to be shunning the sunlight? Does that explain the pose?
Tin Can - the stem on the wine glass looks really short - it's more like a stem for a brandy snifter. I think you've given us one of the few bald vampires here...
meltface - beautiful painting, beautiful texture. With the first version, it's the warmth of her body that keeps drawing your eye there - what if she were in the same color value range as her captor? And you gave us the only mohawk so far - heehee, a different touch.
Shardana - why armor? He's covered from neck to wrist to the bottoms of his feet. Though the armor is painted beautifully, there's not enough in the costume or the pose or the face to say "pin-up."
Ice Moon - keep pushing it further, the painting could look top notch if it's worked on more. The blood on his chest and neck seems to flatten that whole area out - and since it's a focal point in terms of color, I think you need to stay true to the values and contours of the skin under that blood. It's almost like he's got a triangular piece of flat paper glued under his chin, obstructing view of his collar bone and adam's apple.
Dream Seer - beautiful drawing! Nice sense of form and line. And a very tongue in cheek interpretation of the brief, which I can appreciate. I would positively love to see this painted! Yours is perhaps the one I look forward to the most when it reaches the poll...

Well, the bathtub thing just wasn't working out, so here's a quick sketch I did instead. Ignore the fact that the anatomy in his arms is totally ridiculous. :/ I'll fix it, if i have time, but i doubt i'll finish this week...
i'll try to get some crits in soon, promise.

February 29th, 2008 #185
Here's the lastest. n1va example has helped alot. need to do little adjustments with the shadow then next is the pants. Also I'm thinking of adding smoke coming from his skin to show that the sun is burning him.

Detail of my WIP......plugging away at it and I see I need to move an eye (among other things)...
February 29th, 2008 #187
Wow, some really great pieces turning up in this thread... I really want to stop and crit, but i don't like picking and choosing, and it's 5am and I should have been in bed two hours ago at least, so another drop and run from me. Just an update on my own piece. He's kind of a nod to the vampire wanna be Reiganse from the Vampire Hunter D anime of 1985, I loved the red and white hair thing. And colour coordinated, like any sexy vamp pin up would be, naturally. Thanks to the person who told me his eyes were slightly off.. figured his whole facial features were ever so slightly too centered for his face.
March 1st, 2008 #188
Teehee! Sam! He's so 1980's pretty! Like...DuranDuran meets Blade...*steals him and runs away very fast-like*

March 1st, 2008 #192
Man, I want one of those.
March 1st, 2008 #193
This is my very first chow ever. I didn't do a rich elegant male vamp but a thuggish biker type vamp with torn cloths and stuff. I guess he's a blue collar vamp. =)
March 1st, 2008 #194
Well, I guess mine is finished ^^. Any last crits?
March 1st, 2008 #195

Just thought I'd take a peek at a few of the WIPS. Everyone is so creative! Looks like you guys and gals are having a blast with this one!
I do have to say, Zephyri, your vamp hottie can bite my neck any time! Too good and too sexy! Can't wait to see the finished product!

I decided to start again - I'm planning on finishing that other one but it wasn't really appropriate for the topic. I guess this one isn't much better, but its more in the right direction and less emo. There's about a millimetre more chest as well, haha

2 is better than one...
hiya everyone!
some great work here...this week was super crunch at work so i barely had a chance to do anything but i wanted to participate. here's a rough of my idea...a bit late...not sure if i can make the deadline...but hopefully i can have it finished by tomorrow!
March 1st, 2008 #201
Hot, Sexy, Male Vampire!!! Why do I only see this now
You guys and gals are rockin' this, though

Someone gave me this custom title and I will never, ever change it!

damn this looks interesting chow but never cant get anything drawn in time
March 1st, 2008 #203
Well, I posted my chow in the finals thread. Thanks for all the tips and crits! I'm going to hand out some tips too, I hope it helps ^^
Ebony-Chan: cool, but keep an eye on anatomy. I think the muscles pop out a bit too much.
Tsujni: Yours has a very twisted atmosphere, cool! Though probalby not everyone's definition of "hot" Upper arms look a bit swollen maybe?
rvdtor: Nice drawing! The design of the dress is a bit confusing maybe (what are those yellow things exactly?), but still cool.
Zephyri: Well, your drawing rocks . I do think that it has a bit too much going on, with all the hair and all the trinkets. Simplifying the clothing design would make this drawing even better I think.
Giordan: Please finish this sketch, it looks very cool. What are you going to do with the environment?
daestwen: I really like your sketch, hope you can finish it. I think the arms look good, the left one maybe too short? I like the curly hair!
Well, good luck everyone, I'm looking forward to all the finished entries!

I really dig your concept, Mr. Robot. Cool stylization. I doubt I'll finish mine but we shall see! I dunno why I'm feeling so 'pastel'. Maybe in defiance of typical vampire emo stuff...

Hello, I'm new here and this also happends to be my first CHOW. I found out about this rounds' subject absurdly late, but being that it is too fantastic to pass up, did my best to produce some type of work before Sunday. Unfortunately I doubt I will manage to finish, but hopefully I will post again later tonight my progess. Does anyone happen to know a lovely Adobe Photoshop tutorial that could be a use? I am horrible at digital colouring and any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
I apologize for the horrid photo, and digital enhancement.

The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Mumbai police on Thursday arrested a 67-year old man from Andhra Pradesh for allegedly misappropriating Rs1.12 crore from the bank account of a catering company through stolen cheques.
The arrested person has been identified as Shaikh Abdul Kadar Mohammad Jamal.
According to EOW sources, in the same offence, the police had earlier arrested five persons and filed charge sheet in the case, while Kadar, his son-in-law Sharif Mohammad and G Narayan Reddy were shown as wanted in the case. The court had also issued non-bailable warrants against them.
"Five years ago, seven cheques of a Girgaum-based catering company was stolen. The company has their account in a Worli branch of a private bank. On the stolen cheques, bogus signatures of the owner of the company were put and the money was transferred from the account to accounts in Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh," said an EOW officer, requesting anonymity.
He added that when the owner of the company learnt about the fraud, he lodged a complaint in this regard.
Following the investigation, the police made five arrests in the case. "Some of the ill-gotten money was transferred in Shaikh's bank account. On receipt of specific information, we arrested Shaikh from his residence at Sai Model village at Vijaywada in Andhra Pradesh, said the officer.

Woman and Child on a Bed
Objects of this type may have served multiple purposes. They have been found in temples, tombs, and houses. Perhaps they satisfied the sexual needs of men in the afterlife or conveyed wishes for fertility on the part of both men and women. They may have had a connection with Hathor, goddess of love and sexuality. The child here suggests the ideas of fertility and rebirth, which were vital to resurrection and immortality in the next life.

I got this jacket for my nephew, who loved it. It provides some extra warmth over the regular fleece without adding too much bulk -- and allows him to stay active when it's cold without looking like a bowling ball.
This is an awesome jacket. It's great for cool to mid- cold weather. It's very stylish and comfortable to wear. It runs true to size with enough room to wear a long sleeve shirt or a sweatshirt. Great selection of colors to choice from. Besides, what young boy doesn't want to look cool and hip at all times.
We have always had denali jackets, but decided to try this one with the down. My son will not wear bulky jackets in winter and this is perfect! The down adds the perfect amount of warmth even on really cold days!
This jacket is great! My 12 yr old Son loves it, not to bulky and just enough room to run and play football at recess. He wears this jacket year long with a hoody under and it works perfect for him in between classes. Washes well, great quality.

Projector Wall
I am trying to build a projector wall with four Nvidia gpus at the moment and I am wondering if it is possible to use metamodes or some other technique to "trim" the video sent to the projectors. More specifically, the projectors might overlap each other in the final configuration and I am looking to be able to trim away the overlap in my X config.
I think I had it occur once, on accident, when I switched from a set of tiled 1680x1050 screens to some 1024x768 projectors, but I have not been able to reproduce it. I have been trying to adjust the metamode lines and the Xinerama layout in my xorg.conf, but at best I have only gotten duplicated screen areas.
I can post my xorg.conf tomorrow, I happen to be writing this at home and the computer in question is shut off in the lap.
Bonus question: it would be
if anyone had any insight on this, and I have researched it a lot -- is it very practical to do display transformation with the user tools that are out there now? The closest full on user tool seems to be xrandr 1.3 (it has a --transform option taking in a new viewport matrix), but that simply segfaults for my when I tried it. I expect Nvidia would have to add 1.3 support to their driver, and even then I would probably be SOL due to Xinerama and RANDR not playing together.

It's easy to attach yourself to any one of Tessa Kiros' cookbooks. They are created from Kiros' heart and life experiences as the daughter of a Finnish mother and a Greek-Cypriot father and as a woman who grew up in South Africa and cooked in London, Australia, Greece and Mexico. Kiros' bio will tell you that she met her husband, Giovanni, on a trip to Italy to study language and food and that she and Giovanni live in Tuscany with their two daughters.
Fourth of July in the 1940s and 50s, Fort Collins, Colorado
¼ cup flour
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cold butter or margarine
1½ cups Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds Cereal, lightly crushed*
1 pound (3 cups) Bing cherries, pitted
½ cup sugar
½ cup water
1 tablespoon quick-cooking tapioca
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour and 2 tablespoons sugar in large bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or two forks until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cereal; set aside.
1 pound ground beef
15 baby sweet bell peppers (about 2½ to 3 inches long, about 1¼ pounds)
2/3 cup regular or spicy 100% vegetable juice
½ cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed dry
¼ cup uncooked whole wheat or regular couscous
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon dried oregano leaves
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup reduced-fat shredded Parmesan, Monterey Jack, white Cheddar or Italian-blend cheese
6 small-to-medium-squat, round peppers, washed, with very tops, seeds and membranes removed
3 cups tomato sauce
½ cup water from peppers cooking pot
Juice of 1 lemon juice
1 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper
1 pound ground beef
½ small onion, minced
1/3 cup finely chopped celery
½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1½ cups cooked rice
Olive oil, as needed
When it's summer and bell peppers are in season, they are a good option for making casual dishes like fresh stuffed peppers for feeding a small family, or a large crowd. Even if you are just cooking for one, peppers freeze well, so if they look good and the price is right, stock up. They can be assembled ahead of time, baked just prior to serving and are tasty whether served hot or at room temperature. Offered as hors d'oeuvres, baby bell peppers are a good choice for stuffing, as well.
Bernie's Dad used to make this whenever they were invited to a potluck dinner.

1/2 pound ground beef or moose
Sat and pepper to taste
1/2 pound bacon, fried and chopped
1/2 cup onion chipped
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tbsp vinegar

1 can pork and beans
1 can kidney beans

NYSSA, Ore. (AP) — Some Eastern Oregon onion growers said proposed food safety rules requiring higher standards for irrigation water could shut them down in the middle of a growing season.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said the rules under the 2011 Food Safety Modernization Act are part of a preventive strategy: There's no history of salmonella or E. coli outbreaks in dry, bulb onions, and the agency wants to keep it that way.
2 cups water
3 quarts cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
8 regular size tea bags
In a medium saucepan, heat 2 cups water with sugar and bring to a boil; boil for 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat, and steep tea bags in sugar/water mixture for 5 minutes. Remove tea bags and allow mixture to cool slightly before pouring into a gallon-size pitcher. Add three quarts cold water to the pitcher. Allow tea to come to room temperature before chilling in refrigerator. To serve, pour chilled tea into iced-filled glasses. Makes about one gallon.

The culinary buzz in Tijuana
Recovering economy, greater sense of safety pushing revitalization of all kinds of eateries
Misión 19 is courting not only wealthy residents of Tijuana, but also executives in the city's maquiladora industry and Americans who cross the border for medical treatment. The menus are in English and Spanish, and the plan is to translate them into Chinese and Korean as well.
Plascencia and Guerrero are both champions of Baja Med cuisine, which uses fresh local ingredients to create dishes that blend Mexican, Mediterranean and Asian flavors. "We're the last frontier, there is nothing written in stone, we're writing the story every day," said Guerrero, a law school graduate who opened his first restaurant, La Querencia, a decade ago in Rosarito Beach.
He and Plascencia have done little marketing for their restaurants; they said most of their customers have come through word-of-mouth. News of their cooking skills has traveled beyond Tijuana, both in Mexico and the United States, where Plascencia has developed a following in Los Angeles.
But even those with less renown are finding new opportunities in Tijuana as rents have fallen. Cesar Escandón, president of Canirac, recently closed his small restaurant in the Río Zone to open 58 Restaurante on Avenida Revolución. He is paying less than $900 a month for a site that used to rent for $3,800.
The region's culinary boom has been years in the making, and many link its origins to the establishment of Baja California's wine industry. Training programs have played an important role as well, starting in 2003 with the opening of the Culinary Art School in Tijuana. The Autonomous University of Baja California launched its School of Enology and Gastronomy at its Ensenada campus in 2006, and has plans to expand later this year to Tijuana.
For government authorities, the growing culinary movement offers chances to revive Baja California's struggling tourism industry. After hotel accommodations, visitors spend the most on eating out, said Juan Tintos, Baja California's tourism secretary, who has been working with food writers such as Rick Bayless, a Chicago chef who specializes in Mexican cuisine.
"Baja has some of the best food found in Mexico," said Bayless, who plans to feature the Baja California peninsula his TV program, "Mexico: One Plate at a Time." "The combination of local talent, local ingredients, organic produce, local winemakers and local breweries promises to push the region even further."

Cap'n Dan's Daughter
Joseph Crosby Lincoln (1870-1944) was an American author of novels, poems, and short stories, many set in a fictionalized Cape Cod. Lincoln's work frequently appeared in popular magazines like the Saturday Evening Post and The Delineator. Although Lincoln was aware of his contemporary naturalist writers like Frank Norris and Theodore Dreiser who used American literature to plumb the depths of human nature, he rejected this literary exercise. Lincoln claimed that he was satisfied "spinning yarns" that made readers feel good about themselves and their neighbors. Lincoln's literary portrayal of Cape Cod can be understood as a premodern haven occupied by individuals of old Yankee stock which was offered to readers as an antidote to an America that was undergoing rapid modernization, urbanization, immigration, and industrialization. Lincoln was a Republican and a Universalist. Among his famous works are: Cape Cod Ballads, and Other Verse (1902), Cape Cod Stories (1907), Cy Whittaker's Place (1908), Keziah Coffin (1909), The Depot Master (1910), Cap'n Warren's Wards (1911), and Kent Knowles: Quahaug (1914).

Stephen Fry's breathtakingly outrageous debut novel, by turns eccentric, shocking, brilliantly comic and achingly romantic. Adrian Healey is magnificently unprepared for the long littleness of life; unprepared too for the afternoon in Salzburg when he will witness the savage murder of a Hungarian violinist; unprepared to learn about the Mendax device; unprepared for more murders and wholly unprepared for the truth.
©1991 Stephen Fry (P)1995 Random House Audio
"Fantastic Listen"
Loved this from start to finish, very intimate detail in places, so maybe not for a prude, but very very entertaining. The characters develop well and you really start to get to know them. Being read by the author (Esp when it is Stephen Fry) is always a bonus.
As always the soothing tones of Stephen Fry make this audiobook a pleasure to listen to. Fry adds unique voices and the correct level of tone, pitch and intention into the text, working hard to really bring it alive.
I would have given this 5*'s but the book was let down by the bizarre ending! A fault of the story line and not the audio reading!
"Funny, witty and very well acted"
Funny, Witty, interesting
I've honestly got nothing to compare this to. It is very stange with a winding plot that still remains interesting. The individulal scenes are excellantly written and acted. Especially near the end.
He is the greatest voice actor in the world. I think that is understood. The book wouldn't be half as good without him and he's the reason i bought the book.
The epilogue.
If you like Stephen Fry in both his writing and voice acting then buy this book. If you don't like him then you won't like this. It is Stephen to the core.
"Incredible characters imaginative story"
I have fallen in ... lib with both Adrian Healey and Donald Trefuses.
Mr mendacious and Doctor duplicitous are two of the most roguishly likeable characters I have had the pleasure of reading about and thus imagining.
I urge anyone to purchase, listen then listen again and perhaps again.
The character is pretty much Fry himself and that spoilt the book for me. I find myself wanting him to move away from his own experiences and write about something else. That said it is of course brilliantly read and wonderfully worded. Of course maybe the fact that this character is a cheat and a liar is Fry's way of empahsising that here he is passing off this work of fiction when it's nothing more than himself inserted into a story?! Maybe he's being Ironic - I dont know, I liked it but he's done better.
If it's well written I'll give it a go. Just spare me from Dan Brown.
"It is probably what you'd expect...."
...which means if you are a fan of the man you will enjoy this. I am and did but would understand others finding it a little impenetrable; if not odd, blending as it does the Worlds of public schools, Cambridge, cricket, Piccadilly rent boys and espionage!
...and playful Stephen teases with the reader throughout to work out the semi-autobiographical bits....and those bits that are lies!
"Not as good as the abridged version!"
I had an abridged version of this audiobook on cassette many years ago which was excellent. I then bought the full length version and have to say that I was disappointed.
The language and content was far more graphic than it needed to be on this format.
It is a very clever story with many twists and turns and would have been so much more enjoyable as a "12A" as opposed to an "18" version.
"Extremely dissappointing"
I absolutely love Stephen Fry. His humour is for me amongst the most enjoyable and his reading is always exceptional. However, in this, his first novel, there is so much gay sex and inuendo about it that I have been quite put off and won't even bother to finish it. Such a shame.
"Unmitigated gratuitous gay porn"
Wow - Stephen Fry, how do you get away with it! I am not a fuddy-duddy, this takes masturbation to a new level - that is of course if you really want to go down that road. Anyway, I can now give the Stephen Fry total expos? machine a complete miss.
"A Great Disappointment"
Firstly, I am a huge fan of Stephen Fry. I sat down to listen to this story with great excitment. Perhaps my expectations were too high. The story was leaden and Mr Fry seemed less than thrilled to be reading it. I confess to falling asleep at times and having to rewind. So I suppose if you are having trouble sleeping this may be a good buy, otherwise stick to other titles with Stephen Fry as narrator/presenter.

I'll be on the lookout for that Showalter punkwad, so I can ask once again why he pulled his Texas Rangers starters on the last game of the season, years back, so the Angels would win and get home field advantage over the Yankees in the playoffs. I wanna hear what Mr. Baseball tells people about that day, how he claims to be Professor Old School, then he pulls his starters to determine home field advantage on a post-season. That man better not ride the elevator with me, or he'll come out bleeding from the Dumbos; I'll cuff him with the truth. I'm bringing zip-locks and a trowel, so we'll have stool sample analysis for Melky One and maybe that Batista lug who went from Bruce Banner to the Hulk in one season, and because it happened in Toronto, nobody asked questions. Think inquiring minds would have asked in NY? I'll be looking for weak links we can exploit during the season. The bulk of my report, of course, will go in an encrypted file to Joe Girardi.

Serbia wins first Davis Cup title
Updated: December 5, 2010, 3:00 PM ETAssociated Press
BELGRADE, Serbia -- Serbia celebrated its first Davis Cup title Sunday, becoming only the second unseeded nation to win the trophy when Viktor Troicki beat Michael Llodra 6-2, 6-2, 6-3 to complete a 3-2 combeback win over France.
Troicki, who had replaced Janko Tipsarevic in the final singles match, dropped to the court in jubilation after his victory and his teammates fell into each other's arms to celebrate.

District 10 softball realignment for 2010-12
There was plenty of movement in softball for the new cycle, including a new opponent for McDowell and Strong Vincent on the Class AAAA level. The two teams met annually in the District 10 championship, but will have to deal with Mercyhurst Prep for two years, after the Lakers elected to play up.
Class AAA received a few more teams for the playoffs in Harbor Creek and Fort LeBoeuf, but lost Titusville, Oil City and General McLane to AA.
Iroquois played in a Class AA region the past two years as a Class A team, and fittingly is back on the Class AA level. Cambridge Springs could have taken over as a top contender in Class A, but also moved up to AA.
Notable changes:
-Mercyhurst Prep elected to play up in Class AAAA.
-Oil City and Titusville moved down to AA and are in Region 2.
-Maplewood moved down to Class A and is in Region 3.
-Cambridge Springs moved up to Class AA and is in Region 3.
-Iroquois moved up to Class AA and is in Region 4.
-General McLane moved down to Class AA and moved to Region 4.
-Harbor Creek and Fort LeBoeuf moved up to Class AAA and switched to Region 6.

The reason they make you play through at least the very early stages of fed, is because there is no tutorial system in place for klingons, at least at the moment. When you go klingon you start at... lt. grade 6 I believe, so Since klingon is heavily PVP right now, cryptic believes giving would-be klingons the basics via the fed training before they embark down that path.
However in the latest content update article they state that a good chunk of klingon PVE is on the way, and I would guess that perhaps a tutorial is in the works as well so some can start klingon. Wouldn't bet on it, but would like to assume so.

MOSIX: A Cluster Load-Balancing Solution for Linux
After starting the 14 nodes as a MOSIX cluster, we wanted to test our installation. By default, all the diskless CPUs mount an NFS directory on PC1. So we placed the Linux kernel 2.2.14 source code directory under that NFS space, making it visible to all nodes, and we started the kernel compilation process using MExec/MPMake, the parallel make, a contributed software that assigns new processes to the best available cluster nodes (available for download from MOSIX web site).
Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6 show snapshots of mon, a MOSIX tool that shows the load on all the nodes. As Figure 3 shows, there was a high load on node 14 because it was the node on which the compilation started. A few seconds later, Figures 4 and 5 show less load on CPU 14, and then Figure 6 shows a good distribution of the load among all the nodes.
MOSIX supports configurations with large numbers of computers with minimal scaling overheads to impair the performance. You can have a simple low-end setup composed of several PCs connected via Ethernet, on the other hand, you can have larger configurations that include workstations and servers connected via higher speed LANs such as fast Ethernet. A high-end configuration may also include a large number of SMP and non-SMP workstations and servers connected via a high-performance LAN such as Gigabit-Ethernet.
Our last experiment will include testing MOSIX on a new self-contained NEBS-compliant cabinet that consists of 16 Pentium III processors powered with 512MB of RAM and running at 500MHz. Each CPU has two on-board Ethernet ports and is also paired with a four-port ZNYX Ethernet card (used to provide Ethernet redundancy). Eight of the CPUs have a RAID setup (RAID 0 and RAID 5) with three 18GB SCSI disks.
MOSIX for Linux is subject to the GNU General Public License version 2, as published by the Free Software Foundation. It is available for download from the MOSIX web site (see Resources).
MOSIX allows us to do an uninstall and clean up the kernel source it modified. During the initial installation, mosix.install modifies the following system configuration files: /etc/inittab, /etc/inetd.conf, /etc/lilo.conf, /etc/rc.d/init.d/atd and /etc/cron.daily/slocate.cron.
The original contents of these files are saved with the .pre_mosix extension and the changes made to kernel files are logged to the mos_uninstall.log file in the kernel-source directory. To uninstall MOSIX, you run the command ./mosix.install uninstall and answer the questions. When you are asked if you want to clean the Linux kernel sources, answer "yes". The script will then attempt to revert all the changes that were made during a previous MOSIX installation. At the end you need to reboot the node so start it as a plain Linux node.
Clustering offers several advantages that result in sharing the processing and the ability to achieve higher performance. If you are interested in clustering your servers with efficient load-balancing software and you need support for high performance, then MOSIX can certainly be useful for you. It is easy to install and configure, and it works.
However, our initial interest with MOSIX was to understand its algorithms and investigate the possibility of using it for efficient distribution of web traffic over multiple processors. We found that MOSIX is not directly suitable for the type of functionality we want for a near telecom-internet server that we are aiming to prototype, mainly because it is missing a front-end tool for transaction-oriented load balancing such as the HTTP requests.
There have been many requests to the MOSIX mailing list asking about HTTP traffic distribution with MOSIX. I believe that if the authors would add this functionality to MOSIX, MOSIX will be one of the most popular software packages for Linux clusters.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Private Arrival Transfer: Seattle Tacoma Airport to Hotel. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.
Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
Super service - beats cab or shuttle hands down
What could be a more amazing feeling when you landed in Tacoma in a gloomy rainy day, and your private Mercedes Benz limo was waiting for you right outside the gate? My driver was very professional, friendly and good at telling stories. We had good laugh on the way to my hotel in the Microsoft town...He made my journey to Seattle way more enjoyable. Thank you!
Excellent service, only issue was locating the driver as the mobile wouldnt recognise the drivers number. Perhaps an easier way of picking up the vehicle would be easier and less stressful but service from driver very good.
Instructions on arrival was confusing and we couldn't find the can. We had to call them and the guy was a bit rude and said he was busy and only got our booking that morning.
We couldn't see the driver at the exit from the flight so we followed the signs for the limo parking. We still couldn't locate the driver and spoke to the limo desk. The chap there sorted us out really quite quickly with a lift to our hotel, albeit in a mini bus, and we gave the driver our Viator limo voucher for our trip. We did get a call when we were at our hotel asking where we were and I explained what had happened. There return trip with with the same company was absolutely great. So although it was a bit of a fangle we still got to our hotel fairly quickly, thanks the the chap on the limo desk at the airport.
Was just unclear how to find - two versions go outside and phone or walk to third roadway. Could not work website to confirm info and had to phone from Sydney. Actual transfer fine except driver used mobile.
We were very disappointed in this service. We waited about 45 minutes for the driver. We called the number we were given 4 times before he arrived. The driver was fustrated because he had not been given our contact numbers. I will not use Viator for this service in the future.
Not at airport at agreed time had to again ring to chase up

VAN NUYS - Mayor James Hahn, taking advantage of initiatives pushed by his predecessor, signed into law on Thursday six new laws to change the city's business tax system, including a onetime amnesty for scofflaw companies.
``We are sending a message that business counts in Los Angeles,'' Hahn said at the event held at the Valley Economic Development Center with business leaders from around the city behind him.
``These six laws are an important step to make Los Angeles competitive not only with our neighbors but with other areas across the country trying to take our business. And this is just the start of what we hope to accomplish.''
Hahn acknowledged the measures he was signing were the result of efforts by former Mayor Richard Riordan but said he supported the measures as city attorney. The Los Angeles City Council gave final approval to the laws while Riordan was in office.
Hahn said he also will be pushing for a proposal to provide a two-year tax amnesty for start-up businesses to give them a chance to establish themselves before having to pay taxes.
Jack Kyser, chief economist of the Economic Development Corp., called it a huge first step.
``A lot of people were wondering what Hahn would do with economic development and he is showing it will be high on his radar screen,'' Kyser said. ``There is still a lot to do, but the business community will welcome anything that reduces the complicated tax structure that Los Angeles has.''
The measures signed by Hahn include the tax amnesty program, to run between Oct. 1 and Dec. 31, and are expected to bring in $20 million in new revenue and $4 million a year in ongoing funds. Under the program, which expects to net only a small portion of businesses cheating on city taxes, all penalties will be waived.
``Businesses should not look for us to do this again,'' Hahn said. ``If they have forgotten to pay their taxes, we hope this will remind them.''
Other measures signed by Hahn will create a business tax settlement bureau to resolve disputes, revise how business tax assessments are appealed, equalize interest rates for tax refunds and penalties, exempt inter-company transfers from taxation and create a whistle-blower program to report delinquent firms.
While no exact figures are available, Hahn said officials have told him the reforms are expected to bring in more revenue - 75 percent of which will be used for additional tax relief and the remaining money going into a housing trust fund.
``The goal of this is to create more jobs,'' Hahn said. ``If we are successful, then we will need housing for those workers.''
Hahn said he purposely chose the San Fernando Valley for the signing ceremonies - his second visit to the region in his second week as mayor - to show the region's importance.
``It was the San Fernando Valley that helped our economic recovery, it is the San Fernando Valley that is helping us sustain it,'' Hahn said.
Hahn also cited the organized effort of the development center for bringing together a number of Valley business organizations, including the Valley Economic Alliance, the Valley Industry and Commerce Association and the Valley Economic Development Center.
``It is an example that we should use across the city to bring economic development together,'' Hahn said.
Mayor James Hahn, shown here at the groundbreaking for a Woodland Hills library, also spoke at the Valley Economic Development Center. He has signed six laws reforming the city's business tax system.
