Israel Enjoys Victory With U.N. Flotilla Probe
Palmer Commission finds Gaza blockade legal, does not demand apology
A panel headed by former New Zealand Prime Minister Geoffrey Palmer is preparing to report that while Israel used excessive force against last year's flotilla and intercepted the boats too early, presumably making it partly responsible for the nine deaths of the activists aboard the Mavi Marmara, the Gaza blockade itself was and remains legal and Turkey deserves blame for the tragedy at sea as well. (Israel argues that its soldiers acted in self-defense and that it intercepted the flotilla where it did due to tactical considerations.) Israel is not asked to apologize or to compensate the victims' families. The report also finds that Israel's internal probe was fair-minded and professional, while Turkey's internal probe was biased and politicized. All in all, especially given that many of Israel's most ardent supporters have acknowledged that the deaths last year were not only a tragedy but a strategic blunder, and especially given the track record of U.N. reports concerning Israel, Israel is likely to be pleased with this outcome. Couple it with the effective thwarting of this year's flotilla, and you've had a pretty good week if you're Israel.
It's also an outcome that is clearly partly the result of positive diplomacy between Israel and Turkey, although on that front, reportedly, there has yet to be a full healing. Members from both sides are currently negotiating in New York; yesterday, Israeli President Shimon Peres urged reconciliation. Turkey is demanding an apology for the flotilla raid; Israel wants only to respect regret. The U.N. report is expected to side with Israel, not Turkey, on this question. Indeed, perhaps most telling of all is that Turkey, and not Israel, is urging the report be kept secret.

She is the author of Willful Blindness: the Bush Administration and Iraq, a book of her columns from 2002-2004. In 2001 she was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in commentary and in 2008 she was awarded the Edward Weintal prize for international reporting. In 2010 she won the Arthur Ross award for international commentary from the Academy of American Diplomacy.
For those who think the failures of the Arab Spring prove the Mideast is unsuited to democracy, Jordan's Marwan Muasher begs to differ.
Diplomacy, diplomacy, diplomacy. Partners, partners. These were the buzzwords President Obama hammered home in the foreign policy portion of his State of the Union address, as the core of his global strategy for the next three years.
- This weekend marks the third anniversary of the Tahrir Square revolt in Egypt. It's hard to recall the incredible exhilaration of those days, which I witnessed firsthand: Facebook-savvy activists rallied millions to the square with calls to end police brutality and oust a military-backed dictator.
- On a trip last month to the Turkish-Syrian border, I met an impressive young Syrian opposition journalist named Adnan Hadad, who had just fled Aleppo because he was being targeted by both the regime and al-Qaeda militants.
- They say a picture is worth 1,000 words. That's certainly the case with the photo of beaming Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem clasping hands with grinning Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov last week in Moscow - as though in a victory salute.
- American politicians seem incapable of appraising nuclear talks with Tehran with a cool head. The preliminary deal on Iran's nuclear program that was finalized this week has turned into a political inkblot test, onto which supporters and opponents project their deepest fears.
- When it comes to foreign policy, 2013 was a great year for autocrats and radical Islamists. For democracies and would-be democrats, the last 12 months were pretty grim.
- GAZIANTEP, Turkey - Just when you thought you had the measure of the war crimes in Syria, the Assad regime goes one worse.
- GAZIANTEP, Turkey - The three young Syrian women had managed to escape from the rebel-held section of Aleppo for a few days' rest across the border in Turkey. Asma, 26, a university graduate in English literature, has been volunteering for the past two years as a nurse in a field hospital, treating civilian victims of the war, which has divided Aleppo into conflict zones held by the rebels and the regime.
- REYHANLI, Turkey - For two years, the Obama administration refused to arm moderate Syrian rebels it claimed to support, for fear the guns would wind up in the hands of Islamists. In an astonishing turnaround - propelled by the need to salvage a failing Syria policy - the administration is now wooing the Islamist rebels it once feared.
- CAIRO - It isn't easy being a senior lawyer for Egypt's deposed president, the Muslim Brotherhood's Mohammed Morsi. A respected jurist and former member of Egypt's upper house of parliament, Mohamad Tosson was clearly frustrated, as he talked to me over tea in a dim hotel lobby. He has been permitted to see Morsi only once since the military ousted and jailed him in Ju
- In Cairo, new love for the military. Trudy Rubin, A23.

ECB President Mario Draghi's speech
Thursday - 12/6/2012, 8:54am EST
By The Associated Press
The Associated Press
(AP) - Ladies and gentlemen, the Vice-President and I are very pleased to welcome you to our press conference. We will now report on the outcome of today's meeting of the Governing Council, which was also attended by the Commission Vice-President, Mister Rehn.
Based on our regular economic and monetary analyses, we decided to keep the key ECB interest rates unchanged. Owing to high energy prices and increases in indirect taxes in some euro area countries, HICP inflation rates have been elevated for some time. More recently they have declined, as anticipated, and are expected to fall below 2 percent in 2013. Over the policy-relevant horizon, inflation rates should remain in line with price stability. The underlying pace of monetary expansion continues to be subdued. Inflation expectations for the euro area remain firmly anchored in line with our aim of maintaining inflation rates below, but close to, 2 percent over the medium term. The economic weakness in the euro area is expected to extend into next year. In particular, necessary balance sheet adjustments in financial and non-financial sectors and persistent uncertainty will continue to weigh on economic activity. Later in 2013 economic activity should gradually recover, as global demand strengthens and our accommodative monetary policy stance and significantly improved financial market confidence work their way through to the economy. In order to sustain confidence, it is essential for governments to reduce further both fiscal and structural imbalances and to proceed with financial sector restructuring.
Today, we have also decided to continue conducting our main refinancing operations (MROs) as fixed rate tender procedures with full allotment for as long as necessary, and at least until the end of the sixth maintenance period of 2013 on 9 July 2013. This procedure will also remain in use for the eurosystem's special-term refinancing operations with a maturity of one maintenance period, which will continue to be conducted for as long as needed, and at least until the end of the second quarter of 2013. The fixed rate in these special-term refinancing operations will be the same as the MRO rate prevailing at the time. The rates in the three-month longer-term refinancing operations, to be allotted until June 2013, will be fixed at the average rate of the MROs over the life of the respective longer-term refinancing operation.
Let me now explain our assessment in greater detail, starting with the economic analysis. Following a contraction of 0.2 percent, quarter on quarter, in the second quarter of 2012, euro area real GDP declined by 0.1 percent in the third quarter. Available statistics and survey indicators continue to signal further weakness in activity in the last quarter of the year, although more recently some indicators have stabilized at low levels and financial market confidence has improved further. Over the shorter term, weak activity is expected to extend into next year, reflecting the adverse impact on domestic expenditure of weak consumer and investor sentiment and subdued foreign demand. A gradual recovery should start later in 2013 as our accommodative monetary policy stance and significant improvement in financial market confidence work their way through to private domestic expenditure, and a strengthening of foreign demand should support export growth.
This assessment is reflected in the December 2012 eurosystem staff macroeconomic projections for the euro area, which foresee annual real GDP growth in a range between -0.6 percent and -0.4 percent for 2012, between -0.9 percent and 0.3 percent for 2013 and between 0.2 percent and 2.2 percent for 2014. Compared with the September 2012 ECB staff macroeconomic projections, the ranges for 2012 and 2013 have been revised downwards.
The Governing Council continues to see downside risks to the economic outlook for the euro area. These are mainly related to uncertainties about the resolution of sovereign debt and governance issues in the euro area, geopolitical issues and fiscal policy decisions in the United States possibly damping sentiment for longer than currently assumed and delaying further the recovery of private investment, employment and consumption.
According to Eurostat's flash estimate, euro area annual HICP inflation fell to 2.2 percent in November 2012, down from 2.5 percent in October and from 2.6 percent in the two previous months. On the basis of current futures prices for oil, inflation rates are expected to decline further to below 2 percent next year. Over the policy-relevant horizon, in an environment of weak economic activity in the euro area and well-anchored long-term inflation expectations, underlying price pressures should remain moderate.

Nieminen Causes Raonic Upset In Monte-Carlo
Monte-Carlo, Monaco
by ATP Staff|
Continuing his good early season form, Jarkko Nieminen caused an upset at the Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters Wednesday when he defeated 12th seed Milos Raonic 6-3, 1-6, 7-6(3) for a place in the third round for the first time in 10 years.
It marked the 31-year-old Finn's first Top 15 victory since late September 2012, when he beat World No. 15 Raonic in the Thailand Open quarter-finals at Bangkok.
Nieminen improved to a 16-8 match record in 2013, putting him on course for his best season since 2006, when he went 55-27 and reached a career-high No. 13 in the Emirates ATP Rankings. He now has his sights set on returning to the Top 30 for the first time since 20 October 2008.
Nieminen has a 98-68 (.590) career record on clay, according to the FedEx ATP Reliability Index. His next best surface is hard courts, where he has a 219-180 (.549) mark.
The World No. 49 has a 2-10 record in ATP World Tour finals, including three runner-up finished at clay events (2002-Mallorca, Estoril; 2003-Munich).
Nieminen will play fifth seed Juan Martin del Potro in the third round on Thursday.

Corporate Taxpayer Bailout Field: Where Home Runs Go To Die (Link)
By Mets Police ,
It's going to be really weird being in a new ballpark. I bought tix to 30 games yesterday and fellow Mets Policeman Osh41 asked me how my seats are....I don't know. I can tell you the section (5-somethings, I'm not rich like you) but I don't know what that means. You tell me "Uppers Section 1" at Shea and I know what you mean....section 5something means nothing to me yet. I don't even know if I'll be in the sun on the typically cold Opening Day, oh that's right it's a NIGHT GAME, thanks for that one Mets. Nice head.
Speaking of Corporate Taxpayer Bailout Field, if you have 17 hours you can kill a lot of time reading this discussion thread and looking at the pictures of That Field.

Anyone seeking Italian citizenship through descent from a female and was born before 1948 -- I highly recommened the legal services of Avv. Luigi Paiano. I retained him two years ago because my father was born to my Italian grandmother before 1948. Luigi was clear about the documents he needed (birth, marriage, naturalization certificates, etc.) and kept me apprised of the various procedures. Today the court ruling was issued recognizing my father and me as Italian citizens.
I would definitely advise anyone who has been prevented from getting their citizenship because of the 1948 rule to e-mail Luigi at his website <http://www.luigipaiano.com/eng/>

No Joke.
When my regular practice partner for 11yrs quit - I was distraught for over a month , but gradually in last 3yrs things have gone well , now the guy I hit with is no-where near as fun as my old-pal ( he blew a knee-cap ) , but I've gotten used to him & I just do a lot more off-court work ( gym,swimming,cardio, other-sports : badminton/soccer/cricket etc ) than I used to before.
But for a year or so It was very hard keeping the motivation or keep on going on court ....
Just remember , if you are having a 'boring' time w/ball-machines - some huge-tennis-fans on other part of the world might not even have that as an 'option' , so .......
Just Saying Cheep-up & have faith - things will turn out your way - Good Luck Cindy , I loved reading your threads - I felt it was quite spunky, good reads.
Aren't the ball kids in Bangladesh - all very high ranked juniors - my friend told me when his partner gets tired - he just uses the ball kids - who are all better players than club members.
He also said - no need for ball machines either because of these kids!!!!

The hyperlink is to sections of my site irishpolyglot.com which I was very active in before I started fluentin3months.com. At that time I didn't speak any German, and thus didn't make any videos in it.
It was a fun hobby, but making documentaries and then recording a voice-over 7 times and rendering completely different videos with different subtitles etc. was a LOT of work, so it's unlikely I'll be posting anything on irishpolyglot.com again more than once a year.
As well as this too many people said it doesn't actually demonstrate that I know these languages. I'd rather focus on live videos where you can see me speak spontaneously into the camera for the moment. When I get the chance I'll make an interview in German with a native (as I did recently in French and Spanish) and that may be where the link points to if I do!

State Government and its employees are known to deliver results and the aim is to provide good governance: Tripathy "Government's main focus is to improve morale of the employees"
CHENNAI: Chief Secretary L.K. Tripathy has sought the cooperation of government employees in extending e-governance to all departments.
"The Tamil Nadu Government and its employees are known to deliver results. Our main aim is to provide good governance," Mr. Tripathy told the eighth State-level Conference of the Tamil Nadu Government Employees Association (TNGEA), at Madhavaram on Wednesday.
The Government was in the process of providing a big push to computerisation and introducing the concept of e-governance to serve the people, he said and appealed to the employees to work together and provide courteous service to those seeking help. The Government was concerned about the employees' welfare and it took several corrective measures to heal the "deep wounds" inflicted on the employees last year.
Mr. Tripathy said the Government's main focus was to improve the morale of the employees, and it intended to do this by motivating them at their work spots.
"If you have any problem or difficulty at the workplace, please do tell us and we are accessible", Mr. Tripathy said listing out several people friendly measures taken by the Government.
T.S. Sridhar, Special Secretary, Personnel and Administrative Officers, while outlining the welfare measures of the employees, enumerated the steps initiated by the Government in filling over 1.5 lakh vacant posts.
State Public Secretary S. Adiseshiah appealed to the employees to bring in more transparency in rendering public service.
Sugumal Sen, general secretary, AISGEF, inaugurated the three-day conference.
C. Kuppuswami, MP; T.K. Rengarajan, all India vice-president, CITU; S.S. Thyagarajan, general Secretary, AITUC; N. Parvadarajan, general secretary, Tamil Nadu Primary School Teachers Federation; K. Pandurangan, president, Secretariat Sangam; president of the Reception Committee and general secretary, CITU, A. Soundararajan; and K. Rajkumar, State president of the TNGEA, were among those who spoke.
The valedictory of the conference will be held on Island Grounds on May 18. Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi and Electricity Minister Arcot N. Veerasamy will participate.

I went into playing too human a little skeptical because I had read most of the reviews online for the game and they were almost all less than spectacuar and bashed down pretty hard on the game, but nevertheless I went out and bought the game. i had so much fun with the demo that I couldn't let the game pass me by.The GoodThe Combat - I have to say that I really love the combat in this game.

Another Pokemon Skinned Puzzle Game 1
Another platform, another Pokemon skinned puzzle game. Now this may be very similar to the Pokemon Puzzle League games of the past but with the new touch controls of the Nintendo DS it brings new life to a game that would have been stale otherwise. Basically, you just need to match up three or more of the same type of Pokemon heads and keep doing that and try to rack up as many points as possible without the heads building up all the way to the top of the screen. While this game may not appea...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.
The Best Version of the Game 0
Usually, it is the licensed games that are on the bottom of the video game food chain, but on the Game Boy Advance, it seems to be the exact opposite. The console version of the game felt shallow and empty, but this version is action packed with a classic feel that will satisfy older, younger, hardcore, and casual gamers alike. The game plays very similar to the older Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle games to appeal to the older hardcore players, and the linear gameplay will appeal to younger and c...0 out of 0 found this review helpful.

I always played with legos as a kid, and I have to say that playing the Lego games bring back a lot of those old memories. I may not be as familiar with the Indiana Jones franchise as the Star Wars franchise, but I have to say I had just as much fun playing this Lego iteration as I did the previous Star Wars ones.Now largely the game play seems to have remained unchanged, and for me that is not a bad thing at all.

While Dragon Ball Z games a popping up everywhere these days on every single platform known to man (I even saw a DBZ game on a TI-83 graphing calculator) there have been a shortage of games from the series that started it all: Dragon Ball. Just like the Dragon Ball Z game, Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure follows the story of anime pretty closely. It follows Goku and his friends on the search for the mystical Dragon Balls and his fights against the evil baddies along the way.Now unlike previous...1 out of 1 found this review helpful.

You were just about to give up, then...BAM!!!
I wear many fabulous hats in my life: Daughter, sister, best friend, auntie, pre-school teacher, student, roomie, cat mommy, hug-giver, curriculum writer, host, teammate, karaoke singer, role model and dog-sitter...to name a few;) I would love to add another hat to the list...call it what you want: girlfriend, the peanut butter to his jelly, soul mate, the spring in his step, his everything, the ketchup to his fries, partner in crime, or the fruit to his loop. Yes, I can be cheesy and I'm looking for someone who can appreciate that quality about me...and more! I am extremely passionate about my job as a pre-school teacher at a program I truly admire and respect. My 7 years of experience will serve as a huge stepping stone to ultimately becoming an elementary school teacher. It has been a long and slow road, but I haven't given up and can't imagine myself NOT teaching. I have another year at CSUS to finish my BA and then it's on to the credential program! Things that make me smile: WINE, music, Ellen, volleyball, The Goonies, the ocean, my friends, cuddling with my cat Reece, molding the minds of children, dressing up, ChapStick, little notes, adventure, foot rubs, bubble baths, owls, Diet Coke, rollercoasters, SUSHI, being artsy, Blue Moon with orange juice, a thrilling ride, KISSING, spontaneity, anything leopard, miniature golf, a great picture, good-smelling men, putting things in their place, S'mores, a long nap, Starbucks, painting my nails, reading books to kids in accents, driving while singing, my Uggs, a comfy hoodie, a call from my sister, cheesecake...What will you do to make me smile? I am looking for a man with his head on his shoulders, knows what he wants in life and is not afraid to express his emotions. I believe that laughter is the key to happiness so he should be able to make me laugh, put up with my sarcasm and adore my goofiness. Someone who is simply kind-hearted, compassionate and patient is attractive to me. The way he treats his mom and a random waitress go hand in hand in my eyes. Sharing the same interests is important; however he should also be able to do his own thing. Thoughtfulness and the "little things" he does are special to me, as I will appreciate the effort and return it in my own way. I am excited and open to new opportunities to meet someone who I click with, am attracted to and just can't wait to see again. Are you that someone?

I'm mainly upgrading because the HD 6990 has 2GB GDDR5 per GPU and much better tessellation than my HD 5970. Also for some people the HD 6990 with 2GB GDDR5 will compete well in some games with much more expensive GTX 580 SLI in some high resolutions and multi monitors setup.
3.) Your better argument probably was why not GTX 570 SLI or HD 6970 CF which is close in the same price range. The short answer is, my setup is better suitable for single graphic card.
4.) You and your friend and everybody else following the graphic cards news should know by now. Neither Nvidia or AMD/ATI ever produced the dual GPU graphic cards to compete with 2 cards SLI or 2 cards CF.
The single most important reason for the Dual GPU cards is to have the fastest graphic card on the market which also in the case for AMD/ATI was for the last 4 generation the flagship card.
5.) If somebody bought the card yet is kind of very strange question, since Newegg I'm sure the best supplied online retailer has the cards sold out even though some cards already had second shipment. Are they going to be many Nvidia enthusiasts buying the card, I doubt so but the video card industry is not just about this forum.

NORFOLK--A Norfolk man convicted of killing a woman two days before Christmas was sentenced to 40 years in prison Friday.
Police said 33-year-old Stephen Deon Smith killed 33-year-old Lynelle C. Jenkins in her Johnson Avenue home around 11:50 a.m. on December 23.
Smith was convicted of first and second degree murder and was also sentenced to nearly 10 more years in prison for probation violations.
Officer Chris Amos told WVEC.com the two had been in a relationship, but he wouldn't elaborate on a possible motive for the murder.
Smith was arrested at his B Avenue home a short time after Jenkins' body was discovered, Amos added.

Former Aztec Noel Prefontaine still kickin'
This wasn't quite what Prefontaine meant when he said "you gotta hit somebody" to earn respect, and much to his dismay, this incident has endured as a part of Noel's legacy.
Prefontaine, you see, really isn't one for violence. But that doesn't mean he's not a fighter.
After undergoing hip surgery this offseason, Noel was released by the Argonauts in December-- primarily for financial reasons. In June, however, Toronto picked him up as a practice-squad player. Don't worry, this was perfect for him. Prefontaine could still be around the game he loved and use the year to segue into his coaching career. What he wasn't counting on, however, was starting kicker Swayze Waters injuring himself on a kickoff in the first game of the regular season.
Enter Prefontaine, who has played in eight straight games since.
Exit Prefontaine? Not anytime soon. Noel's average punt of 40.1 yards this year is the lowest of his career, but he said that the strength he never thought he'd need this season is starting to return. Did he necessarily want to come back like this? No. But does he want to give it up now that he has it? Heck no.
"I want to hold on to this job," Prefontaine said. "You have to have that competitiveness."
Oh, that desire to be the best. Might be the one thing Noel can't kick.

I think life would be a lot easier for you and authors if you guys could toss a bunch of prefab characters into the Foundry contact costumes (ie. Worf, S1 Worf, assorted Klingons, etc.) and then took the more clear stance of, "Don't remake characters seen onscreen in the IP unless we provide you with one."
Maybe have a special naming convention.
"Canon - Worf - 2409"
That might mess with my Picard mission (where I tried to hide it from looking like Patrick Stewart) but it would be clearer.
Then again, to make it explicit, you could add:
"Canon - Picard - 2409" and just have it be a male in an EV suit. And "Canon - Picard - TNG Era" as a generic male in a First Contact EV suit.
There ya go. If all uses of characters from the shows have to be from a Cryptic-approved costume list, all you do then is supply generic EV suits with the name attached. So authors know, "Okay. I can use Worf but he has to be wearing a Cryptic approved costume. I can use Picard but the only approved costumes have him in EV suits."

Gear Question
Thanks a lot Sandy. I really appreciate...
Thanks a lot Sandy. I really appreciate your help. You just made my search a lot easier. I Either got the the Green Machine or the the Titan Ultralight (assuming that the Ultralight version of the Titan has the same last of 102 as the Titan does). I'm size 28.5. do you know when you guys will have the Green Machine? Also, you guys are currently out of the Titan Ultralight in size 28.5; is there any chance you guy will order more of it in that size?
Thanks again for your help
Sandy Brown
Happy to help. Titan and Titan UL have the same width. Green Machines and more Titan ULs are coming. New stuff is arriving from Europe every day, but I can't say exactly when it will show up on the BC site. Keep checking!

Great value for money, i recommend this tour to everyone who wants to see the best of Turkey, just like it promises.
Our first guide was very professional, had a great sense of humor and a lot of information about the historical sites.
Our driver was very friendly and managed to get us everywhere without problems or stress.
The hotels that were included, were very nice and adequate, thumbs up for the Colossae Thermal Hotel in Pammukkale ( excellent ) and thumbs down for the Marina Hotel in Kusadasi ( first our room was already booked, then the keycard did not work for our next room and then i had to call reception 3 times to get the ac working in the room ).
We joined a second group, traveling from Pamukkale, Bursa back to Istanbul and although we were together for only a short period, this was also a very positive experience.
Our second guide arranged a dervish show and the restaurant she showed us the next afternoon served the best turkish style kebab i ever had.
The weather was great and very high temperatures from time to time, so sunscreen and head gear are no unnecessary luxury.
When you book this tour, be prepared to get up early and to travel long distances by minivan.
The earliest we had to wake up was 5.30 am and the travel from Pamukkale to Istanbul took 10 hours.

At the start of the tour all travellers that did not book with the tour operator directly had to get off the bus and were offered a refund or a dresden trip next sunday because the bus was overbooked.After a discussion of 15 minutes we could get back on the bus.Although the voucher said that the tour was in english, 80% was spoken in hebrew which i don't speak or understand.Luckily we were divided in a english and a hebrew group once we arrived in Dresden.Dresden itself is awesome, but unfortunately the time you get to spend there is just not enough, we choose 2 items Frauenkirche and Waffenmuseum but i will certainly return to this beautiful city which has so much more to offer.Overall recommended for a first impression, but please improve on the booking part

Pickup on time by Bus, Return pick up was a litlle late and a smaller bus due to the fact that there were only six people who planned this trip on that day.

Due to the excellent weather, we had a great time at Bear Mountain.
We did not care much for the October Fest, so we enjoyed ourselves with the beautiful nature on site.
The three hours on Bear Mountain were more than enough.
I can imagine that the 2,5 hours it takes the boat to get there, can be quite boring, but we had a great time taking pictures in the front of the boat.
Be sure to bring something to eat, because the prices on the boat are expensive.

Because we are great fans of the eighties rock music, we planned this broadway performance in the Helen Hayes Theatre.
Theatre is pretty small, but we had excellent front row seats.
The performance itself was amazing and we had a awesome time.
If you are in to rock and musicals this is a mustsee.
Too bad that taking photographs is prohibited.

I am wanting to do a set of video tutorials for my templates. However I only want to allow people who have purchased my items to view them. Since we are restricted from having user information on who has purchased our products, that makes this difficult. I would include the video tutorials with the source files but they are huge and it would take the customers countless hours to download the source files.
If customers had a FAQ tab or Help tab like the downloads tab, where authors could provide links to video or help documentation on their servers, that only work, if the customers login has been authenticated, that would be AWESOME !!
There are WAY to many pirated copies of our software out there to provide links to online help documentation without an authenticated session ensuring the visitor has purchased our file(s).
Also countless thousands of customers are pissed off because they have to search through 30plus pages of comments to get answers to previously asked questions unless we keep answering them over and over again, which guarantees loss of income to the author and activeden because instead of spending our time productively creating new files we are stuck answering the same questions over and over again. And in order for us to keep our help documentation current we have to re upload our entire source, which ties up our internet connections for hours every day. Oh and then wait for approval, lol.
I know DS and others have suggested this countless times before but we have not seen any results. If we are truly committed to making this a better community, then we would integrate a feature like this because it is obvious that many customers are lacking up to date help information because no authors are going to tie up their internet connection for hours a day just to re upload there entire source just to change a couple lines of text in their help documentation.
The policies in place are ridiculous and counter-productive and causing a loss of income to authors, to activeden, and pissing of customers.
Man we really need this one soooo bad!!!
And the authenticated session links to our servers are a good idea too!!!
do you mean something like that? http://www.thejob.ch/
click "Noch Fragen?" and then a question…. it appears then in the left content window
when I read FAQ TAB I thought about that swiss website
I am wanting to do a set of video tutorials for my templates. However I only want to allow people who have purchased my items to view them. Since we are restricted from having user information on who has purchased our products, that makes this difficult. I would include the video tutorials with the source files but they are huge and it would take the customers countless hours to download the source files.
why you not make a screencast tutorial with screenr? it's free and you only need a headset to record your voice you can write the url in your helpfile….... and nobody has to download such big sizes of videos, Nettuts plus is also using Screenr for their screencasts
watch the 1-minute tour for more
doesn't even have to be anything complex like that just a tab for faq. And then a spot where we can upload text docs, or video links for the files they have purchased from us.
The problem with non authenticated links to video tutorials. Is pirates would post these links all over the place and not only would be able to steal our work, but then get free help to boot.
FAQs tab and rating comment box
This is indeed a great Idea. I would be very happy if we could get a basic FAQ Tab, nothing fancy at first, and if people like it (and I am sure they will) improve the functionality of the tab =)
Thanks for the post Kriesi! If we shout loud we might be heard.
FAQ Tab please (again)..
How many times have you authors had a question from a buyer and had to say "yes I've answered that question previously, please go through the comments" and then the buyer saying they can't find it or they don't have time to go through 30 pages of comments… this is why we need a FAQ TAB !!
Helpful Information
- Please read our community guidelines. Self promotion and discussion of piracy is not allowed.

SAN ANTONIO -- New details have emerged in a New Braunfels murder case, according to New Braunfels police.
Mr. Drury died after getting struck in the face with a metal tire iron, New Braunfels Police Captain John McDonald said. As a result of that, he fell down and struck his head on the asphalt.
This is how 37-year-old James Drury lost his life back in July, at Prince Solms Park in New Braunfels. The man accused of swinging the tire iron is 18-year-old Victor Sanchez.
But, according to police, Drury's altercations started long before he suffered from the fatal blow. Police believe Drury got into a fight with a man on the Comal River earlier in the day.
Drury sustained injuries as a result of the fight, as did the victim, McDonald said.
Drury then proceeded to follow a man and a woman for a half mile before shoving the woman in the back, according to investigators. In fear for their safety, the couple was forced to rely on two strangers for help.
That female actually got into a vehicle -- which they did not know who those men were -- asking for help, McDonald explained.
The group of four then sped off in a 2004 Dodge Ram. Then, for some unknown reason, police said the group returned a short time later and found Drury still there.

Hi all
I am bit confused about Guild Wars so hoping some can help.
I am Primary a MONK and Secondry a Elementisht.
Basicly as a MONK what weapons should I be using? Can we use a Sword and shield or does it do next to no dmg with us being Monks?
Should I use a WAND like I am now and what type?
Also attrubute points...
I been concentrating on Divine Favor, Healing And protection for MONK and for Elementish FIRE because the fire spell ownz.
Is this a good way to stick or should I do points else where?
Will later on elementish spells be more affect for a monk that i should raise attribute points for or should I just stick to healing/protectition and divine favor for PvP?
If I did that will my spells be weak in elementish to do next to now dmg at all?
Customizing weapons...
I dont understand alll this?
I get a new wand and take it to a Weapon vendor and he customize it with 20+dmg which i dont even notice in battle.
How do i buy better wands I am lvl 10 with a 5-7 dmg wand I feel so weak when fighting. Where do I get better weapons to do more dmg I feel like a rat in the game at times.
How do I get better customization for weapons when I visist the weapon vendor and why does he not sell weapons and only customize them? and where do i buy better weapons??
Last question for moment..
How often should i find a trainer to get more spells? I got a few at moment but use hardly any of them hehe.
Any other advice as a monk is mega gratful.

Irresistible big Punta Fuego Regatta winner
NASUGBU, Batangas—Irresistible, steered by veteran sailor Harry Taylor, topped the Cruising Division for keelboats to lead the winners of the 11th Punta Fuego Regatta here over the weekend.
With a crew composed of Allan Lundy, Josie Brizuela, Dennis Araojo and Ronald Tiangzon, Irresistible harnessed the strong northwinds well enough to beat Freewheeler of David Wheeler and Strawberry Hill of Santi Picornell.
Skipper Ridgely Balladares and crew Richly Magsanay prevailed in the Hobie 16 race, Fernan Sarmiento ruled the Optimist, and Tommy Lim dominated the Hobie Bravo class of the event managed by Jerry Rollins as race committee chair.
Sharing the limelight was 13-year-old Janno Dalanon, who was cited for an act of bravery when he abandoned the race to come to the rescue of Rex Puentespina, whose Hobie 15 capsized in the choppy waters.
"The first rule of the book is to save a fellow sailor," said Puentespina, who is also a director of the Philippine Inter Island Sailing Federation. "This boy saved my life."
Dalanon, competing in the Optimist class (dinghy) for beginners, also came to the aid of the distressed sailor. The two then shared Dalanon's boat which also caught water later, forcing them to bail out just as the rescue boat arrived.
Because of the gesture, Dalanon, who was running seventh at the time of the accident, was given a special award during the closing ceremony.
"I felt better after helping somebody," said Dalanon, who is a Philippine training pool member in the Optimist.
Placing second in the Hobie 16 race around the Fortune Islands were Joel Mejarito (skipper) and John Albert Escalante (crew), with Mike Ngu (skipper) and Lando Pahayhay (crew) third.
Edgar Villapana took second in the Optimist over Froilan Boyano while Martin Marty and Noel Lim came in second and third, respectively, in the Hobie Bravo class.
"We used to hold the races in October and November but we found out the winds are good in January," said Rollins, who noted the big number of participants including international sailors who compete all around the country.

Filing season tax minimization ideas.
1. Claim all charitable deductions: Individuals should be sure to determine miles driven for charitable purposes, such as when driving children to a volunteer worksite. For 2006 returns, the charitable deduction rate is 14[cents] per mile. Also to be reported are any charitable contributions made through payroll deductions.
2. Claim all medical deductions: Mileage for medical purposes is deductible, similar to charitable miles, but at 18[cents] per mile or, if greeter, out-of-packet cost. Any premiums paid by Medicare for clients over age 64 should also be included.
3. Claim business mileage: The mileage allowance for business use of a vehicle is 44.5[cents] per mile for 2006. Most business use of vehicles probably costs more than this, at least in some metropolitan areas. For those accumulating significant mileage, computing actual cost versus the standard mileage rate might be worthwhile.
4. Be aware of minimum tax credit: Individuals owing alternative minimum tax are also likely generating a minimum tax credit to use against regular tax in the future. Be aware of the amount generated from prior years; such information should be included in any tax preparation software used, so it is net overlooked in future years.
5. Compare approaches: Tax preparation software makes it easy to determine optimal filing approaches (e.g., taking the standard deduction versus itemizing). Married couples should compute tax liability filing jointly and separately, to see which is more beneficial.
6. Know the rules for taxation of state income tax refunds: Historically, the tax benefit rule has caused a refund of state income taxes deducted in a prior year to be taxable to the extent that itemized deductions that year exceeded the standard deduction. However, revised IRS Pub. 525, Taxable and Nontaxable Income: Miscellaneous Income, states that the taxable amount is further limited to the excess of the state income tax deduction over the state and local general soles tax deduction that could have been claimed. For example, X deducted $10,000 in state income taxes on his 2005 return, because it was higher than the $9,000 sales taxes he paid that year. If X receives a $3,000 refund of state income taxes in 2006, the maximum amount taxable would be $1,000 ($10,000 income taxes $9,000 sales taxes), because X could hove deducted S9,000 in any event. Consequently, even if the deduction for state income taxes exceeds that for sales taxes (i.e., the table amount plus taxes on major purchases), practitioners should take steps (including checking their software) to ensure that the potential sales tax deduction is as high as possible, to limit the taxable refund.
7. Contribute to Roth IRAs: Under the IRA rules, taxpayers whose adjusted gross income (AGI) exceeds certain levels ($160,000 for joint fliers and $105,000 if single) cannot contribute to a Ruth IRA. However, a change mode by the Tax Increase Prevention and Reconciliation Act of 2005 (TIPRA) now allows these taxpayers effectively to make contributions, even though their AGI exceeds these levels. Beginning in 2010, taxpayers can roll over amounts from traditional IRAs to Roth IRAs, regardless of their AGI. They can take advantage of this change now, by making nondeductible contributions to traditional IRAs, then rolling these amounts into Roth IRAs in 2010.
As a practical matter, taxpayers prohibited from making contributions to either Roth IRAs or traditional IRAs rarely make nondeductible contributions to a traditional IRA, thinking that they are investing after-tax dollars and de income, when distributed (although tax-deferred), would be taxed at ordinary rotes (rather than long-term capital gain rates if such amounts were invested in growth stocks or similar investments). However, the TIPRA changes this. Making a nondeductible contribution for 2006 by April 15, 2007, up to de maximum of $4,000 per taxpayer ($5,000 for those 50 or older), enables u taxpayer to roll over such amounts to a Roth IRA in 2010. Any amount taxable in 2010 from such a conversion results in half of the amount being included in income in each of 201 1 and 2012. This two-year spread is only available for conversions occurring in 2010.
8. Have siblings claim siblings as dependents.' Effective in 2005 and beyond, a taxpayer can claim an individual as a dependent if de latter is a qualified child. Such individual generally must (1) live with the taxpayer for more than half the lax year, (2) be under age 19 (age 24 if a full-time student); and (3) meet a relationship test. One way the relationship test is met is if the individual is the taxpayer's brother or sister. Prior-law income and support legs hove been eliminated; as a result, a young adult living in the household who is not a qualifying child of his or her parents could claim a younger sibling as a qualifying child. This could be extremely beneficial when the income phaseout rules eliminate the parents' ability to claim on exemption or child credit for de individual.
9. Split refunds between bank accounts: Taxpayers can elect up to three different bank accounts into which they may split their income refunds for deposit. In the past, only one hank account could be used.
10. Contribute to a Coverdell account: Formerly known ns education IRAs, these accounts are limited to $2,000 per child per year, and must be made by April 15th of the year following the year to which de contribution applies. The beneficiary must be under age 18 when the account is opened, unless he or she has special needs. The ability to contribute to these accounts phases out for joint fliers with adjusted gross income (AGI) between $190,000 and $220,000, and single fliers with AGI between $95,000 and $110,000.

I have just finish reading Avengers Sanction, Avengers vs X-Men 1 & 2 and Wolverine and The X-Men 9. So far I'm not enjoying the stories. At first I like how cable took down the Avengers, in Avengers Sanction, but I find myself truly disgusted with the way the story ended. Cyclops save the Avengers and let them beat Cable to death. Now it seems that Cable was right in the first place, the Avengers are going after Hope and now Cyclops has protecting Hope.
Avengers vs X-Men chapters was OK, although the art is horrible in it. After reading Wolverine and The X-Men, I realise marvel have no clue what there doing. Why would Wolverine betray X-Men, there his family, the people he cares for the most. He doing to protect his students, what about the students on Utopia. He completely in the wrong. I'm glad to hear that both Beast and Storm are making the right choices. Beast team up with the Avengers to stop the Phoenix and Storm is ticking by Cyclops and X-Men, where she belongs.
I am just curious to know, who you are rooting for?. Who do you think is right and Who do you want to win?.
Are you rooting for:
Cyclops and the X-Men
Captain America and the Avengers
Or Hope
I am rooting for the X-Men, cause I don't like the Avengers. I hope the X-Men will win. However I am not rooting for Cyclops. I think Cyclops is being a naive . Thinking the Phoenix will save the mutant race, he is placing all his hope, on Hope and she only a child. Since when has the Phoenix Force, gone out of it's way to save the mutant race or the X-men. The only time it help the X-Men, is when Jean Grey has had control of it. Which has taken her years to do and thinking Hope will have better control of the Phoenix is just being naive, she a child and not as powerful as Jean Grey.
I also think Cyclops has made so many questionable decisions over the last couples years. He mistreated Jean Grey, kick Charles Xavier out of the X-Men, use X-23 and he didn't mind sending young mutants to there deaths. He let Norman Osborn and his army hunt down mutants and torture them, including Beast and Charles. The most disgusting thing I have seen Cyclops do, is let The Avengers beat the crap out of Cable, nearly killing him as well. Betraying his own son, disgusting.
Cyclops has gone to far and needs to put his in place, I want someone beat the crap out of him, he deserves it. If the Avengers can't do it, I hope it will be Magneto or Jean Grey sometime in the future. I would love for it to be Wolverine.You know what, I would like Emma and Storm to step up and take lead of the X-Men in this event.
I am not rooting for Captain America and the Avengers, because I'm not a fan of the Avengers, there a made up team, that steal superheros from other teams and other titles. There only one character that like from the Avengers and that is Captain America and I don't agree with his actions. Going to Utopia with Army and demanding Cyclops to hand over Hope, is just wrong and it's inviting a war. Who says the Avengers will handle Hope and the Phoenix a lot better than the X-Men will.
I'm not rooting for Wolverine, I think he is wrong, betraying the X-Men, betraying his family. Trying protecting his students, and siding with the Avengers, is compeletly out of character. If Hope didn't take out the younger students, he would off. It's so wrong and I would be very surprise if he remains headmaster of the Jean Grey institute after this event, cause he deosn't deserve it. Marvel really making him out to be the bad guy in this.
I am rooting for Hope in the end. I hope she gains control of the Pheonix and puts a stop to this war. Putting both Cyclops and The Avengers in there place. They have no right to decide her fate, it's her choice, not theirs. There have been so many questions about Hope over the years, who she really is and I hope in this event will answer all those questions. I'm rooting for Hope, because of Cable, he put so much heart and passion in to protecting her and raising her, I hope he right. I hope she saviour of the mutant race. I do feel bad for Bishop, for marvel destroying his character, but that's what marvel do, they ruin good characters. I look forward to Bishop return.
I think marvel will favour the Avengers over the X-Men, which I think is wrong, cause Hope mutant and it's X-Men right to help her and protect her. I hope after this event, they will return Jean grey and have Charles Xavier play a large role in X-Men comics again. I think it what X-Men need cause, with Cyclops and Wolverine in charge it will get a lot worse, before it get better.
I would like to know who you are rooting for. Who do you think is right and Who do you want to win. What do you think the outcome would be after this event. Will the X-Men stay friends with the Avengers after this event and where will Wolverine stand after this, will the X-Men still trust him after this?

i think i preferred mine enemy overall but coliseum was almost as good. it does feel like a star trek episode as they often just focused on one character, and not having your bridge officers made a nice change of pace. excellant use of cutscenes, the best yet and nice to finally get some decent melee action going on.
i did think the accolades for the engineer and the tactical could have been switched round as it would make more sense if the engineer built the fire and the tactical got the meat.
i also think the overhead scorpion fighter bit could have been better, like it actually attacks you if you are seen but minor grumbles aside it was a great episode.


text: http://www.linuxforums.org – Hi This question is usually responded to with "Liveuser does not need a password". Well believe it or not in some configuration it is not possible to go passed the login screen of Fedora 11 or 12 KDE. If you just hit enter which should work, it goes black with a blue flasy thing and then back to the login screen. I managed to boot into runlevel 3 without a password though. Installed F12 KDE to the HD from the Live CD and then tried to reboot. Would you believe it, same problem. I cant get passed the login screen with the users I created during instillation. The correct password does the same as above, black screen then back to login. The incorrect password does not budge from login screen. I have posted this problem in other forums but no one seems to know this issue. What could cause the login screen to get stuck in a loop like this? Any help would be appreciated here, I feel like I am bashing my head against a wall. Regards, yso? (HowTos)
