ZTE, one of the big Chinese device manufacturers, has launched its new flagship phone, the Nubia Z9. On paper the new model looks like quite a high-end device and that's especially true for the camera. The 16MP Sony CMOS sensor appears to be the same as in the recently announced LG G4, and is combined with an F2.0 lens and optical image stabilization. Read more

While plenty of DSLRs also have a built-in flash, the feature has been out of favor with mirrorless manufacturers, prioritizing miniaturization. This is where the Metz mecablitz 26 AF-1 digital steps in. Small compared to standard hotshoe flash units, it's still a good deal larger than those that come in the box with most mirrorless cameras.

When the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge were launched earlier this year there was no talk of the ISOCELL technology previously used by the Galaxy S5's and Note 4's in-house image sensors, so it was believed the 16MP 1/2.6 CMOS chip in the S6 was provided by Sony. However, rumors have emerged that in some units Samsung sensors are used instead of the Sony variant, and a company spokesperson has confirmed that different sensors are used. Read more
Canon's flagship superzoom is its PowerShot SX60 HS, which sports a 21-1365mm equivalent lens - not quite Coolpix P900 territory but still very impressive. It also features a fully articulating LCD, Wi-Fi with NFC, and 1080/60p video. We've spent some time shooting with the SX60 and have put together a gallery of rusting trucks, sunsets, snowy owls and even snowier mountains. See gallery
Ever since Canon announced its 50MP EOS 5DS R, we've been eager to get it into our studio and in front of our test scene. The wait is over and the 5DS R has been added to our studio scene comparison tool alongside the likes of the Nikon D810 and Pentax 645Z. Read more
Though digital photography has been around for quite some time now, most of us still have a few boxes of prints from the pre-digital era lying around. Digitizing them can be expensive if you use a professional service, or time-consuming if you decide to go the DIY way. QromaScan wants to solve this dilemma, by utilizing your smartphone camera and a foldable lightbox. Read more

Nikon's Coolpix P900 offers a 16MP sensor and a mind-blowing F2.8-6.5 24-2000mm equivalent zoom. It features built-in Wi-Fi with NFC, 7 fps burst shooting, built-in EVF and a fully articulated LCD. The P900 also uses a new Dual Detect optical image stabilization system, claiming up to 5 stops of shake compensation. We've been shooting with it for a few days. See gallery

According to market research estimates, in 2014 Sony made 40.2 percent of all image sensors, leaving its rivals in the sector far behind. There's no doubt that a lucrative Apple contract has helped put Sony ahead of the competition, as it earns approximately $20 for each iPhone sold. Read more

Lomography has introduced the LC-A Minitar-1 f/2.8 32mm to its 'Art' line of lenses. Like that of the original Lomo LC-A 35mm camera (and more recent LC-A+) the lens features a pancake design and Russian optics, aiming to preserve the 'unique character of its vintage' origins. The lens will be sold in a Leica M-mount, and is available for pre-order. Read more
LensRentals received its first Canon EOS Rebel T6s/760D and T6i/750D units and has identified a sensor problem with a number of those cameras. Out of about 20 units (around 10 of each model), 4 T6s and 2 T6i units contained sensors with noticeable defects in their sensor stacks. These layers of glass on top of the sensor contain a pattern of dust-like spots or particles that are visible when studied under angled light. Read more

Our Nikon D7200 First Impressions Review gets a significant update today with dynamic range test results, studio scene analysis and a detailed breakdown of the camera's controls and menus. The D7200 is Nikon's flagship crop-sensor DSLR, with a 24MP sensor, updated 51-point AF system and much-improved continuous shooting buffer depth. We're hard at work on the full review - take a look at how the D7200 has performed so far in our testing. Read more
Leica has introduced an updated version of its black-and-white-only digital rangefinder. The M-Monochrom Typ 246 uses a full frame 24MP CMOS sensor that, like its predecessor, has no color filter array. The model that came before it used an 18MP CCD sensor, so the upgrade to a CMOS chip provides several improvements such as live view and video recording capabilities. Read more

LG's new flasgship smartphone, the LG G4, takes over some of the G3's design details, but from a hardware point of view it's an all-around new device. Specifically, it puts a lot of emphasis on camera specifications. Its 16MP 1/2.6-inch CMOS sensor is larger than the 1/3-inch sensors in many other phones, and the F1.8 aperture is the fastest among the current crop of high-end mobile devices. Read more
Ansix Engineering has taken to Kickstarter with its LensPacks, a rear lens cap backed with Velcro that can be attached to the inside of a camera bag.

If $180,000 seems a bit steep for the Canon 1200mm f/5.6L lens B&H is currently offering in its used department, then perhaps this $33,500 NASA 2540mm f/8 lens on eBay sounds a bit more reasonable. That's twice the focal length for a fifth of the price! Read more
American photographer John Moore has won the L'Iris d'Or Photographer of the Year prize in the World Photography Organization's annual competition.

How would you react if you were told that the aperture and shutter speed you choose make more difference to image noise than the ISO setting? You might be surprised to discover that a lot of the noise in your images doesn't come from your camera at all: it comes from the light you're capturing. Our own Richard Butler explains. Read more

Janne Voutilainen is a man of relatively few words. In that context, the minimalism of some of his photos makes perfect sense. He's based in Finland and finds himself drawn to landscape photography, as well as astrophotography, which is how we discovered his work. He offered a few insights into his images in our Q&A. His otherworldly images speak volumes too - take a look. See gallery

Panasonic's Lumix CM1 has the potential to break new ground in the territory between smartphones and cameras. It offers a 1-inch 20MP sensor, much larger than the typical smartphone camera chip.

China-based manufacturer Yongnuo has produced what looks like a near-clone of Canon's well-liked EF 35mm f/2, a lens that dates back to 1990. With a couple of minor exceptions (one of which being the brand name on the front of the lens) the Yongnuo lens looks very similar to Canon's 25-year-old prime, but at an attractive price of ~$115.

Compared to their 2008-vintage predecessors the Vario-Sonnar T* 16-35mm F2.8 ZA SSM II and 24-70mm F2.8 ZA SSM II feature improved image quality, less ghosting and flare, and a four-fold improvement in subject tracking speed, according to Sony. Another addition are seals that should make these lenses dust and water resistant. More details

The Pentax K-3 II is a modest update to its predecessor, but that doesn't mean that its new features are insignificant.

Chinese lens adapter manufacturer Kipon has announced plans to introduce the first adapter that allows AF operation when a Canon EF or EF-S lens is attached to a Micro Four Thirds camera body. Previous adapters have either been entirely manual or, more lately, offered aperture control, but the Shanghai-based company has said that its next model will allow full frame and APS-C EOS system lenses to focus automatically too.

It was my first and always will be my favorite!
Mmmm.... Sailor moon was my first anime , it really means much to me ^^ First i saw it when i was 6 years XDDD Thats how i first time understood what anime is and ect... Even thought now i like different genre's anime , i still remember sailor moon as cute anime i grown up with ^^
Yes It Was The First Anime I Saw...That I Knew(I Was Between 5-9 when i 1st saw it) but like last month i heard the theme and the memories just flew in i guess,,,,after tht dbz
When i was little i loved watching Sailor moon, i'd run home from school to watch it. When it was on it was one of my favorites.
Though now knowing how much they changed it to make it ok for kids kinda weirds me out. Case and point they never put in the Sailor starlights, and those girls are NOT cousins.
But i still have many fond memories of it all the same.
(yes the starlights are men! ....kinda >.>)

Only fools accept the obvious and go no farther.Common sense isn't so common anymore."I'll follow you everywhere you go in my oh-so-inconspicuous bright red car and convince myself you don't notice."4// Itchy. Tasty.
No. It's my second. My first was Fushiyugi. Sailormoon wasn't so bad, the whole concept of girls being capable of saving people wasn't the thing I really enjoyed watching when I was young. I was more for something like Rangers and stuff. But it was good, can't see anything unnecessary about it.

it was my first also and My fav is Sailor Mars, even as a Kid I said "She's hot!"

Neighborhood: Downtown
Known as Skoochies in the early '80s, then Oz, this place carries the teen dance club torch. The enormous venue caters to those 18-20 (ID required). Local DJs spin tunes for the energetic, well-dressed crowd of high school students and young adults. The large dance floor accommodates about 200 people. Pool tables provide alternative entertainment. Local bands play here occasionally, and when they do, expect the cover charge to increase a bit. The bar serves expensive non-alcoholic beverages. Look sharp-the club enforces a dress-to-impress dress code.

Union: San Francisco train operator blacked out
About 50 people were injured in Boston in May when a trolley rear-ended another trolley. The conductor acknowledged texting when the crash took place. And last month, a subway train rear-ended another in Washington during rush hour, killing nine people.
The last time the NTSB investigated a San Francisco Municipal Railway crash was 1997, when an operator unknowingly dragged a derailed third car 800 feet down a street.
The crash caused $2.2 million in damage when the swaying car slammed into a loading platform. No passengers were on the train at the time, and no one was injured.
Between 2005 and 2009, the agency paid out almost $60 million in legal claims, including millions for deaths and injuries allegedly caused by a variety of MUNI vehicles, according to agency figures.
Prior to Saturday's crash, one person was killed, at least 45 were injured, and a building was severely damaged in six previous MUNI accidents in 2009.
Last week, the agency's board voted to authorize the purchase of a one-year $25 million liability insurance policy for $2.4 million.
Associated Press Writer Jason Dearen contributed to this report.

Intel chief: U.S. spying on allied leaders common
National Intelligence Director James Clapper told Congress on Tuesday it's "kind of a basic tenet" of U.S. intelligence-gathering to find out the intentions of foreign leaders.
He said it's done to make sure "what they are saying gels with what's actually going on" and to determine how allies' policies would impact the U.S.
Clapper also said allies have "absolutely" spied on U.S. officials.
He did not offer any specifics.
Recent reports show the National Security Agency had monitored the cellphone conversations of German Chancellor Angela Merkel. The White House is considering banning eavesdropping on friendly foreign leaders.

Heh. Joel just sent me a couple more pics of the "hockey puck". This thing is so amazingly cool that I just have to rant some more about it.
First, we commissioned Carbon Design, a local design firm, to dream up some really cool home server form factors about 2 years ago. After a couple of iterations we narrowed it down to 3 ideas: the cube, the slate, and the hockey puck. Carbon built us a few foam models of each of these as well as a bunch of cool looking renderings. These served us well for while as tools for illustrating the concept to executives and partners.
As CES 2007 approached, late last year, we decided we needed a working prototype. The goals were to build something that was inanely cool looking, stretched the envelope on size, and expressed the idea that Windows Home Server provides a whole house solution. We re-engaged with Carbon to build a working version of the hockey puck. In a very short timeframe they created 3 working models. Each is based on a nano-ITX mainboard from VIA and 2.5" HDDs. Other cool features:
I recently took one apart in an attempt to replace a hard drive. The level of detail in fabrication blew me away. It all fits together like a very complicated, finely machined, puzzle.
As I indicated in my post yesterday we don't have any plans to build this form factor, and we don't know of any OEMs who are doing anything like this...but we know that someone will eventually: the concept is just too cool!
PingBack from http://groquikman.free.fr/live/?p=182
Yeah, this beats the PowerEdge 2450 and PowerVault 200 I have running as my test gear in the basement...
This looks like Sony's media PC:
cool. is there any connection between the hockey puck and the new Sony Vaio? http://www.sonystyle.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en/-/USD/SY_DisplayProductInformation-Start?ProductSKU=VGXTP1
Wow, simultaneous posts referring to the same thing... Cool. (See immediately above.)
It reminds me a little of the Zune dock.
I really like the hockey puck design. It's sleek, stylish, and doesn't take up much room. It doesn't look like it could hold enough hard drives for my taste, but I would definitely recommend it to people that aren't looking to have multiple terabytes of storage space.
The one thing that bugs me about the way machines running Home Server will be sold is the complete lack of any way to connect monitor, keyboard, and mouse. I know it's not meant to have them connected, but the ability to connect them would be nice for troubleshooting if there are problems with the network connection. With no way to log in locally at all, if the network card goes bad, the whole server's hosed.
Even with my worries about no local log-in ability, Home Server still looks like a very solid product to me, and I plan on getting the OEM software from New-Egg or somewhere like it and building beast of a storage machine, and then unplugging everything except the network and power cables. Keep up the good work.
Here are some professional photos of the hockey puck design. Enjoy! (Reminder, just in case people haven't

A versatile lyricist who switches between silly and serious, technically complex and simply heartfelt, George won the Youth Speaks Grand Slam Finals and the Brave New Voices National Poetry Slam in 2006. Immediate after, George appeared on the final season of "Russell Simmons Presents Def Poetry" on HBO in 2007 while himself a college Freshman and subsequently performed at over 150 universities across the country. Rapping all the while under the name 'Watsky,' George released a jazz-hip hop record with his band Invisible Inc in 2007 and the self-titled 'Watsky' in 2010, which peaked at #7 on the iTunes hip hop charts. In January 2011 George's fast rapping went viral and led to two appearances on the Ellen Show, a slot on Last Call with Carson Daly, and an exploding online profile. George has performed at the Just for Laughs festival in Montreal, the NAACP Image Awards on FOX, three times at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, and has been featured in XXL, Billboard Magazine, and the New York Times Magazine.

In a city of immigrant stories, They Call Me Q is one that has been told before: the hardscrabble fight to survive, the shock of meeting American culture in the flesh, the soul-wrenching identity crisis. But this spunky monologue, equal parts stand-up comedy and reality confessional, delivers a winning tale thanks to author and actor Qurrat Ann Kadwani's dead-on impersonations of New Yorkers and some unselfconscious spoofing of her own immigrant iterations growing up tough in the Bronx.
A running joke involves Kadwani's Indian name, which is twisted by her classmates into Carrot, Qatar, even Q-Rat. These abuses — like the rest of the "curry goat" and "Red Dot" slurs she endures — slide right off her resolve to succeed, so Kadwani delivers them like punch lines rather than the slaps they were intended as. She takes a certain relish in pulling on the swaggering personas of the girls in her hood (saucy Puerto Ricans, quick-fisted African-Americans), as well as a racist teacher and her own parents, all of whom helped shape the person she is today.

who needs video when I have seen it in person
Thank You for dropping by my post. I do hope you enjoyed your stay....
Looking at that Mine Coaster going back through the tunnel looks like a rider could hit their hands on the rocks there if they aren't careful.
Thanks for the video.

That drops also facing backwards... So it'll seem faster as well.
I can't wait for my next flordia trip...I avoided the park on my last visit...just so I could go for everest...and have the WHOLEpark be a new experience
Unless I wasn't looking close enough, the train does NOT go backwards during said drop. The engine part of the train is supposed to be the back, because it is a "steam donkey". Then again, maybe I wasn't looking close enough, so..

Protect your hearing while enjoying the sounds of summer
MAYWOOD, Ill. (June 17, 2014) - Summer sounds include much more than crickets chirping. Outdoor concerts, parades, Fourth of July fireworks, public transportation and construction sites all have one thing in common - high decibels of noise.
"Once hearing is damaged, it cannot be repaired," said Dr. Jyoti Bhayani, a certified audiologist at Gottlieb Memorial Hospital, part of the Loyola University Health System. She has blunt advice about using headphones.
"Hearing aids have yet to become status symbols, so young people need to wise up and turn the volume down on their ear buds."
One in 10 Americans has hearing loss that affects their ability to understand normal speech. Aging is the most common cause of this condition. However, exposure to excessive noise also can damage hearing in higher pitches.
"Hearing loss due to excessive noise is totally preventable, unlike hearing loss due to old age or a medical condition," Bhayani said.
Here are the registered levels for common sounds, according to the American Academy of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery:
30 decibels - soft whisper
50 decibels - rain
60 decibels - normal conversation/computer typing
70 decibels - expressway traffic
85 decibels - earplugs are recommended for prolonged exposure at this level
90 decibels - subway, lawn mower, shop tools
100 decibels - chainsaw, snowmobile, drill
110 decibels - power saw
115 decibels - loud rock concert, sandblasting, car horn
130 decibels - race car
150 decibels - fireworks/jet engine takeoff
170 decibels - shotgun
"It is important to know the intensity of the sounds around you," said Bhayani, who regularly cares for construction and factory workers, frequent air travelers and seniors at Gottlieb Memorial Hospital. "I recommend using hearing protection devices for those who are exposed to excessive, loud noises and musician's earplugs, which simply attenuate the intensity/loudness without altering frequency response."
Loud noise destroys ear nerve endings
Three small bones in the middle ear help transfer sound vibrations to the inner ear where they become nerve impulses that the brain interprets as sound.
"When noise is too loud, it begins to kill the hair cells and nerve endings in the inner ear," Bhayani said. "The louder a noise, the longer the exposure and the closer you are to the noise source, the more damaging it is to your nerve endings, or your hearing."
As the number of nerve endings decreases due to damage, so does your hearing. Nerve endings cannot be healed or regenerated and the damage is permanent.
Ear bud warning
Use of ear bud headphones may save your ears from being assaulted by the noise of your teenagers' music or electronic games, but it may be damaging your child's hearing.
"About 3 in 5 Americans, especially youth, are prone to hearing loss due to loud music being delivered via ear buds," Bhayani said.
Helpful hearing hints
Here are a few summertime tips:
- Cover your ears: "Generic, over-the-counter earplugs are inexpensive and can be found at any drugstore," Bhayani said. "However, they can be custom-made for comfort and durability. Buy earplugs now and keep them handy in wallets, backpacks, briefcases and purses so you can pop them in when noise is loud and continuous." Bhayani also suggested using a scarf or even covering your ears with your hands to muffle sound.
- Swimmer's ear: "Swimmer's ear is caused by painful membrane swelling due to trapped moisture in the outer ear," Bhayani said. "Multicolor, customized plugs for swimming are available and a good investment to avoid painful, or costly, ear infections." After swimming, Bhayani recommended tilting the head to drain water from each ear and gently wiping the outer ear with a towel.
- Cotton swabs: Do not use cotton-tipped swabs to clean ears. "Swabs can actually push wax or harmful material farther into ears and many people use them improperly or too forcefully, which can cause pain or damage."
- The plane truth: Many air travelers complain about ear discomfort when the plane is taking off or landing. "Yawning, swallowing, chewing gum and sucking on hard candy help to unplug the ears," Bhayani said. If yawning and swallowing are not effective, pinch the nostrils shut, take a mouthful of air and direct the air into the back of the nose as if trying to blow the nose gently. This may have to be repeated several times during the plane's descent.

No app that "supposedly" optimizes and fixes my system is getting near my computer or those of my family, and if I see them on any client computers, I tell them right away what the reason for them having to hand in their computers to me for service is.
Posted 01 January 2013 - 22:47
Pretty much. The only software I actually liked way back when was TuneUp Utilities, but not because of the optimization. I liked it for the utilities such as startup manager.
Yea pretty much the same here, like I say some people like them though, I used to use TUU years ago when I thought reg cleaners were necessary but just do everything myself now if needs be
In the history of me & PCs, there has only been once that a program like this has actually fixed what I couldn't, I had sound everywhere except via any browser, tried all sorts to fix it and couldn't, for laughs before I gave up I ran a reg cleaner, "Reg Mechanic" I think, and amazingly it fixed it

Forbes names Jennifer Lopez 'most powerful' star
NEW YORK—Jennifer Lopez is the world's most powerful celebrity, according to Forbes magazine Wednesday in a rankings based on a combination of earnings, press coverage and Internet presence.
Lopez headed the 100-strong list, up from 50th last year, while her American Idol colleague Ryan Seacrest was 29th. Lady Gaga, the pop singer, came in at number five, toppled from her top perch last year.
Television presenter Oprah Winfrey was second, followed by teen heartthrob Justin Bieber at third and singer Rihanna at fourth.
Many on the list at www.forbes.com/celebs showed business acumen as well as stage talent, Forbes said. For example, Bieber "is also a serious investor, with stakes in a dozen companies that appeal to his tech savvy, including a chunk of Spotify."
"Numerous celebrities are leveraging their fame to make early-stage investments or launch startups themselves," Forbes said.
The best example was J. Lo, whose acting and singing career appeared to have tanked a few years ago.
Her success as a judge on American Idol, a resurgence in marketing her music, and an attention-grabbing divorce from Marc Anthony, followed by lucrative product endorsement deals, have sent her financial star shooting.
"While she hasn't stormed Silicon Valley just yet, Jennifer Lopez is a state-of-the-art celebrity success story," Forbes said. "With $52 million in earnings over the last 12 months and a massive amount of fame, Lopez lands at number one on our Celebrity 100 list for the first time."
Overall, the earnings power of the top 100 dropped in 2012 to $4.4 billion from $4.5 billion.
Winfrey was still the most lucrative star, earning $165 million, although that was well below her $290 million haul last year.

Khitomer Accord Space Elite - WAY TOO HARD

I do.
I have been at it now for weeks trying to get that last piece of proto-tech to complete my STF collection, I have all except the Omega MK XII Engine, even all the Accolades.
When I say weeks I mean all day every day, in fact its taken me four months to get this far since I began STF's.
I've seen all the video's and read all the Wiki and other posts several times over and over to know what Im doing, I even bought a new stronger ship and kitted it out properly, and yet still no proto-tech.
If its taken me an all day every day player four months to get this far then my advice to week end players is "Dont waste your time doing STF's".
I mean, what does it take to get the proto-tech, a billion trys where 99% of atemps end in a failed mission.
If the drops that contain the proto-tech are just random chance then its not fair because a noobie could get the proto-tech first try when an elite regular could play a thousand trys and still not get it.
There has to be some set rules on what must be done to get the proto-tech or we are all just wasting our time only to loose it to noobs.
Ive got nothing against noobs since I was one once myself and I hate the way they get all the abuse just for mistakes when trying to learn, but still, proto-tech should be ernt not given away randomly.
Anyway my point is Khitomer Accord space elite is way way to hard even for elite.
Now I will wait for all the people to brag here saying how easy they find it.
Please explain to us the circumstances in which you are having difficulty with the STF, and those of us with a higher-than-High-School social adjustment will see if there's some way we can address your concerns.
After all, I believe it's the role of us veterans who have flown hundreds of these Elite STFs to help out those who have not yet committed to that many hours of play and experience.
If you are basing a 'failure' on the fact that you do not get the drop you want (I am assuming here), then what was mentioned earlier should be kept in mind: The difficulty does not affect the drop rate of prototype tech.

It sometimes seems as if all of our contemporary debates over education revolve around high-stakes testing. RIPR political analyst Scott MacKay says our schools are neglecting an important topic that isn't tested.
Trying to figure out what's happening in education nowadays is an exercise in futility. You have to learn a new language suffused with psycho babble and techno-speak: educators use terms like rubrics, social-emotional learning and site-based management..
A student group at Brown University will host a panel discussion about women in science this evening. It's open to the public. The panelists will talk about the rewards and challenges of navigating a career in science, technology, engineering and math, or STEM for short.

Tuaregs attack a 5th town in Mali
BAMAKO, Mali Tuareg rebel fighters in Mali opened a fifth front on Thursday, attacking a town in the northwest of the country only hours after striking one in the remote east, according to local and government officials and a spokesman for the rebel group.
In a matter of days, the little-known rebel group has shown that they can attack in the far north, the northeast and the northwest. Lere is more than 500 miles (800 kilometers) west of Anderamboukane, where the group attacked Thursday morning.
Cheickna Dicko, the mayor of the town of Lere, said by telephone from Bamako that his town had been attacked by the Tuareg faction.
"I've just managed to speak to a couple of people as the mobile phone network is down. People don't really know what's going on as they are hiding in their houses," he said.
Moussa Ag Acharatoumane of the rebel National Movement for the Liberation of the Azawad, or NMLA, confirmed that his group had struck Lere. Earlier he had confirmed that the group had taken Anderamboukane, a town in the far east, the fifth town in just one week.
"Operations are on going in Lere. I haven't got the confirmation yet from our officers on the ground that the town has been taken but I'm sure this is not long off," he said. "We have mobile units that can attack all over the north of Mali. We are going to continue to attack towns across north of Mali."
Col. Idrissa Traore, a spokesman for Mali's armed forces, confirmed that there had been fighting in Anderamboukane, but did not give further details.
The Azawad is the traditional home of the Tuaregs in northern Mali, and the rebel group says they are fighting for it to become autonomous. The Tuaregs, a traditionally nomadic people spread across the Sahara Desert, have risen up against the central government in Mali three times since the country's independence from France in 1960.
Previous rebellions including the most recent which ended in 2009, have in part been sponsored by Libya's Moammar Gadhafi, who claimed to have blood ties to the Tuaregs. He felt such affinity with the ethnic group that he entrusted a part of his security to the Tuaregs, and it was Tuareg guides who evacuated his son to Niger across the massive desert border after the fall of Tripoli.
The NMLA's military wing was boosted by the return of pro-Gadhafi Tuareg fighters from Libya when the regime was toppled last year.
A heavy death toll is also being reported from the town of Aguelhok in Mali's north where fighting started last week.
"The reinforcements who arrived on the scene Wednesday afternoon told us there are around 40 Malian troops dead," said a Malian soldier based in the north, who requested anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media.
"The fighting around Aguelhok has been very heavy," said Ag Acharatoumane of the NMLA without specifying the number of dead. "At one point Mali's helicopters fired on us. Many Malian soldiers have been killed."

Credit Agreement
Time Payment
I agree that the following terms will govern any time payment account you may establish for my use.
1. I will pay the time sale price of purchases charged to my account. The time sale price shall consist of the cash sale price, including applicable sales taxes and delivery charges, if any, plus any finance charge that may accrue.
2. I can avoid incurring a finance charge by paying my account balance in full, provided that payment is actually received by you before the next billing date. If I do not pay the entire account balance, you may assess a finance charge computed on the "average daily balance" of my account. The average daily balance computation begins with any unpaid balance at the beginning of the billing period, minus unpaid finance charge and credits relating to purchases previously billed. This remaining amount is adjusted on a daily basis, to determine for each day in the billing period a daily balance, by subtracting payments received, after such payments have been first applied to any unpaid finance charge. The sum of these daily balances divided by the number of days in the billing period is the average daily balance for that period.
3. The finance charge for any billing period shall be computed by applying a monthly periodic rate of [percentage of monthly periodic rate]% (annual percentage rate [percentage of annual rate]%) to the average daily balance.
4. Whenever there is an outstanding balance in my account at the end of a billing period, I will make a payment on that account before the next billing date. That payment may be any amount up to and including the entire balance but not less than the monthly payment shown opposite my highest balance in the following schedule:
Minimum Payment
$[dollar amount of balance 1]
$[minimum payment 1]
$[dollar amount of balance 2]
$[minimum payment 2]
$[dollar amount of balance 3]
$[minimum payment 3]
5. You shall have no security interest under this agreement and you waive any security interest or lien arising by operation of law, such as mechanic's or materialman's liens. This provision does not apply to any judgment lien.
6. You have the right to amend this agreement as to purchases made after you have given me notice of the intended change. You may limit or terminate my time payment account privileges at any time without prior notice.
7. If I am in default under this agreement, my entire balance may, at your option, become due and payable. Your waiver of any default shall not operate as a waiver of any other default. If my account is referred for collection to an attorney, who is not your salaried employee, I will pay, to the extent permitted by law, reasonable attorney's fees and court costs incurred.
8. You may investigate my credit history and capacity and furnish information concerning this account to credit reporting agencies and others who may properly receive that information.
9. The law, particularly that applying to consumer credit sales, of the state where I reside shall govern this agreement. If my state of residence changes, I will immediately notify you. If your time payment account terms then applicable in my new state of residence differ from those in this agreement, I will sign a new time payment account agreement made available by you, and, until I do so, this agreement shall be deemed amended to conform to that new agreement as to any purchase made after my change of residence and you may act accordingly.
10. Should any provision of this agreement be finally determined inconsistent with or contrary to applicable law, the provision shall be deemed amended or omitted to conform with the law without affecting any other provision or the validity of this agreement.
Read this agreement before you sign it. Keep your copy for future reference.
Receipt of copy is acknowledged.

This is a major work of history and political theory that traces radical democratic thought in America across the twentieth century, seeking to recover ideas that could reenergize democratic activism today. The question of how citizens should behave as they struggle to create a more democratic society has haunted the United States throughout its history. Should citizens restrict themselves to patient persuasion or take to the streets and seek to impose change? Marc Stears argues that anyone who continues to wrestle with these questions could learn from the radical democratic tradition that was forged in the twentieth century by political activists, including progressives, trade unionists, civil rights campaigners, and members of the student New Left.
These activists and their movements insisted that American campaigners for democratic change should be free to strike out in whatever ways they thought necessary, so long as their actions enhanced the political virtues of citizens and contributed to the eventual triumph of the democratic cause. Reevaluating the moral and strategic arguments, and the triumphs and excesses, of this radical democratic tradition, Stears contends that it still offers a compelling account of citizen behavior--one that is fairer, more inclusive, and more truly democratic than those advanced by political theorists today.

Hey there. Glad to be a part of this forum!
Do you have any experience configuring Painter 11?
I am running that version on Windows 7 64 bit edition, and I am getting some pretty nasty lag. (went with 11 because X does not natively install on 7)
I have already taken it through the guide, but alas, still some serious issues. I know it's not a hardware problem, as you don't get much more powerful than my PC, so the only options I can think of are either my file size, or software config.
To ensure that I take file size into consideration, what dpi do you recommend for gallery-quality print, without having the program performing slowly?

If you upgrade to 7-64 bit, you can run X(10) fine in XP-Mode, but I decided to upgrade to 11 anyway.

Thanks for the tips.
I made a custom shortcut and batch file for deleting the script file and invoke Painter X on desktop. It works out well for me.
It make a copy of "Painter Scripts.scripts"
Delete the script file
Start Painter X
Whenever you start Painter X, it has no overloading excessive scripts on memory.
The below is the batch content RunPainterX.bat
Test the batch file whether it works in command window.
To do it, start > Run > type "cmd"
It will launch a command window.
Go to the batch file directory. I assume, your log-in directory is good choice.
It's "CDocuments and Settings\penguin" in my case
Open Notepad or editor, copy and paste the below content.
Replace "CDocuments...\penguin" to "your working directory."
Save as your_batchfile_name.BAT (BAT is batch file extension for Windows XP. BAT file runs like executable file)
Go to the Painter X installation directory and select "Painter X.EXE", press right mouse button, select copy. "Copy of Painter X.EXE" will create. Select this and rename it as "PainterX.EXE" because START command won't recognize "Painter X.EXE" (I couldn't figure it out why it's not working.)
Go back to the command window where the batch file created.
Type the batch file.
Cyour_working_directory\> yourfile.bat
Painter X would start if everything is done accordingly.
Then, go to the directory where 'Painter Scripts.scripts' is. There should be "Painter Scripts.scripts.bak", which is the backup file of 'Painter Scripts.scripts' by the batch file before it deletes old script file.
Hope it helps.
:: Remove the "Painter Scripts.scripts" file before starting "Painter X"
@echo off
SET script_file="CDocuments and Settings\penguin\Application Data\Corel\Painter X\Default\Painter Scripts.scripts"
IF EXIST %script_file% (
COPY %script_file% %script_file%.bak
DEL %script_file%
START /d "CProgram Files\Corel\Corel Painter X" PainterX.exe

SANTA CLARITA - As temperatures climbed into the 100s for the fourth day, local high school coaches took precautions with athletes to prevent heat exhaustion, in some cases canceling practices.
For Canyon High football players, it was business as usual. The squad worked out Wednesday, dressed in gear and running drills under the glaring sun - but taking frequent water breaks.
Their normal workout from about 3 to 8 p.m. started with three laps around the track followed by an hour of weight-lifting and then drills. To beat the heat, some players walked around without jerseys and after the one-mile run, doused themselves under a sprinkler.
Their coach, Harry Welch, said practicing in the heat is fine, as long as athletes are sufficiently hydrated. Although gallon water jugs and large thermoses scattered next to the players' gym bags littered the sides of the fields, the athletes' water source of choice was the sprinklers watering the field.
``I really believe athletes need to be acclimated to the heat and the humidity. There's not a lot of humidity here, but there is a lot of heat,'' Welch said. ``A well-conditioned athlete must be able to compete in 100-plus-degree weather, but they must be acclimated and hydrated.''
Coaches said that in this heat, they don't place any limitations on the amount of water players can drink, and they watch carefully for early symptoms of heat-related illnesses.
``They can drink as much as they want, as often as they want,'' Welch said, pointing to a player who was running toward the sprinklers as the team was listening to instructions.
Frank Ferry, assistant coach for the varsity soccer team practicing at Valencia High, agreed that if the kids drink a lot of water, they won't suffer adverse effects from the heat. He encourages the players to drink quarts of water the day before to be hydrated enough for the following day's practice.
But as a precautionary measure, he cut short morning practices the past few days, moving the team indoors about 10 a.m. to watch World Cup games on video or to go over plays on the chalkboard. ``We're sensitive to the heat. If the kids hydrate in the mornings, it's not much of a problem,'' Ferry said, adding that they also pass out sunscreen to the athletes.
The media attention surrounding the heat-related death of 27-year-old Minnesota Viking Korey Stringer last year during football practice forced coaches to become more alert during practice, looking out for signs of heat-related illnesses.
Len Mohney, the dean of physical education and athletics at College of the Canyons, who oversees all the high school physical education summer classes, said he's warned the coaches to exercise caution this week during practices.
``I e-mailed site coordinators to use extra common sense because of the heat wave this week - don't go out, don't go as hard, don't go as long,'' Mohney said.
Pat Willett, spokeswoman for the William S. Hart Union High School District, explained that coaches at Hart and Valencia high schools have been moving teams indoors, like to the weight room, if necessary and keeping a close eye on the athletes.
Welch believes it would be a mistake to slow the training when the temperatures rise.
``If they compete in warm conditions again, the athlete goes all out and beyond what they're conditioned to do, and that's when they suffer from heat exhaustion, heat stroke or even death,'' Welch said.
And the athletes don't seem to mind, saying that they have easily adjusted to playing in the scorching heat.
``It's harder,'' acknowledged 17-year-old Chris Pyne, ``but we get used to it.''
Others say practicing in the heat makes them more motivated to win.
``Playing in the heat helps us get prepared and gives us the advantage over most teams we play,'' said player Landen Llamas, 16.
Mark Wallerstain, director of emergency services at Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital, said a handful of patients have been admitted this week for heat-related incidences, which is normal during a heat wave.
He agreed that with adequate hydration, athletes should have no problem practicing in the heat, stressing that adults should exercise more caution when monitoring teen-agers.
``You don't realize how much you're sweating in the heat and losing water and electrolytes,'' he cautioned. ``But considering the number of athletes and coaches out there, the amount of people who show up at the ER for heat-related illnesses is pretty small.''
Recommended methods for athletes to beat the heat:
--Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing.
--Carry water or juice and drink between 16 and 20 ounces per hour.
--Eat small meals and eat more often. Avoid foods that are high in protein, which increase metabolic heat.
--Avoid strenuous activity. If it isn't avoidable, do between 4 and 7 a.m., the coolest part of the day.
--Take regular breaks on warm days.
--All athletes should have a physical exam each year.
--Conditioning should start in advance of formal drills.
--Acclimate to hot weather gradually.
--Replace salt loss.
