So, my EAH5670 just isn't cutting it anymore. I've been looking for a new card for the past two months or so, but I can't seem to bet myself to decide on one, and even when I do, I'm not sure. What are some tips to look for a graphics card? Is there some guide out there? I know that it's recommended to buy cards just by looking at specs, it's mostly about benchmarks, but I can't seem to find some relevant benchmarks online. Not only that, I don't want it for just gaming. I do lots of high resolution Photoshop work along with HD video editing, but I also want to play games like Assassin's Creed III on the highest settings on a card that won't dip under 30 frames.
I was wondering if such a card exists that's in the $100-$150 range. Should I spend more? I would love some examples, but more than anything, I would love a sort of guide on how to properly search for cards. Thanks!

You're struggling with that budget, I would recommend a 660Ti at least but it's probably almost twice your budget.
Stick with Nvidia, they have a feature built into the Keplar (600 range) cards called CUDA which is GPU processing, it's great for Photoshop and the like, although obviously it won't be as good as having a dedicated workstation card like a Quadro.

AMD graphics cards support OpenCL which is pretty much replacing CUDA nowadays. For instance Photoshop CS6 uses OpenCL instead of CUDA. OpenCL is supported by all graphics cards and is an open standard whereas CUDA is a proprietary NVIDIA system.
CUDA also helps in processing videos but that's if the program you're using supports CUDA (even PhotoShop)

I just want Battle Lion , so whatever it takes.
I'm watching some 200X, and it occurred to me that Battle Lion should come with interchangeable Battle Cat 200X armor to use on your classics Battle Cat. Perhaps even an interchangeable head so they can sell twice as many. That would be a great way to "plus up" the figure. Anyone else think this is a snazzy idea?

IF we had a Like Button I'd like the heck out of this!
FINALLY!! GLIMMER IS IN MY SHELF!! Now I need a Crita!! Crita is to Mara what Evil Lyn is to Teela. If we ARE getting Mara, then we NEED Crita.
As long as they come with 200x Battle Cat's missile launchers.
That is a PERFECT Idea, will make loads of people happy, especially if you can use the mask armour on Battle Cat.
Mind you I dont want a 200x Battle Cat, but making it so people can have one is awesome. King Grayskull takes care of my 200x He-Man needs and a Battle Lion would do the same for 200x Cat, but I like that people can "Kitbash" their own 200x out. Much better than a specific release.
So Mattel, listen up. Do this.
Battle lion would be awesome , but he needs to be BIG
An obvious choice for a beast slot is Battle Lion due to the reuse of Battle Cat's buck. One problem that I see, however, is King Grayskull's cape hinders his ability to sit on his mount. Now, I suppose you could simply remove KG's cape but that wouldn't be much fun. How magestic looking would KG look mounted on Battle Lion with his flowing cape behind him draped across BL's armor? This has led me to the idea that packed in with BL could be a cape made for KG which rests on his shoulders but flows behind him laying on BL's saddle. Practically speaking, a cape that flows backward fluttering in the wind as if BL is running wouldn't work very well because the cape needs more points of contact other than KG's shoulders to keep it on. Having a cape that is molded to rest on the saddle and KG's shoulders fixes the problem. So what do you guys think? Good idea, bad idea, do you even want BL anymore (in favor of more important beasts and large scale figures) with the line's momentum noticeably slowing and affecting it's lifespan?
Sounds great
Battle-Lion is wicked hadd...
Would love to get Battle Lion
That would be the top reason that I would buy another Battle Lion. I have an extra Battle Cat waiting just in case they do this with Battle Lion.
- - - Updated - - -
I love the cape attachment idea! I think that they should make both flowing AND draped capes. Hopefully the cape attachments are in the original KG colors.

It would be neat if his mane was made of fur like Grizzlor's, rather than sculpted on.
Anyway I'm surprised we actually haven't seen this guy yet as it wouldn't cost them much to make. New head and armor. Since the last quarterly item in 2014 is an army builder, that means we still won't see Battle Lion for a long time. What gives?

When Do We Get to See Obama's Radicalism?
Last week I wrote a post mocking conservatives for their relentless search for the next secret videotape that will expose Barack Obama as a dangerous radical, the latest of which was the shocking revelation that as a law student, he supported his professor Derrick Bell's efforts to diversify the Harvard Law School faculty. Unsurprisingly, conservatives reacted by saying that I just didn't get it (here's a sample). It's worth saying a bit more about this phenomenon, because we surely haven't seen the last of it, both in the campaign and in Obama's second term, should he win one.
The search for the radical associations in Obama's pre-political history began almost as soon as Obama's presidential candidacy began in 2007. Some conservatives (and that's an important qualifier; many conservatives understand that this stuff is nuts) have been positively obsessed with uncovering Obama's radical associations. They have also insisted that those associations are closer than anyone thinks. So it isn't enough that Obama once served on a charitable board with former '60s radical Bill Ayers; some want us to believe that Ayers actually ghostwrote Obama's books! Obama didn't just speak at a rally supporting Derrick Bell; he hugged Bell, which just shows how close they were!
And all of this is supposed to lead to something, something about Obama's presidency. Not even the craziest among the conspirators thinks that Obama is, today, taking orders from Ayers. But they would no doubt assert that he doesn't have to, because in his youth Obama drank so deeply from their cup of extremist America-hating that he will be doing what the likes of Ayers want anyway.
So here's my question: When do we get to see Obama's radicalism?
I'm not talking about Affordable Care Act-type radicalism. I mean the real radicalism. The Weather Underground radicalism. The Black Panther radicalism. The dismantling of capitalism, the closing of the Defense Department, the demotion of white people to second-class citizenship. When is that going to come? Can they give us the litany of Obama policies that represent the realization of the visions of the '60s radicals who supposedly control his mind across the decades?
Because after all, the point of the supposedly shocking revelation about Obama's past isn't to help us understand what has already happened but to give us a preview of what is to come. For instance, some conservatives believe the auto bailout is a key component of Obama's nefarious socialist plan. But you don't need to know when Obama spoke with Bill Ayers 15 years ago or what he said about Derrick Bell 20 years ago to understand the auto bailout. You can look at the actual auto bailout. No, the shocking revelation is supposed to warn us about new radicalism, the radicalism to come that can only be appreciated if you grasp the full implications of the people Obama was hanging around with a couple of decades ago.
So what exactly is it that they're warning America about? When do we get to see this crazy radical Obama? If they're pressed, there is an answer to this question: In his second term! That's when the mask will be torn off, and the true Obama revealed. Sure, he might be governing like your average center-left Democrat now, but that's only because he's been lulling us into a false sense of security, so he can get re-elected and then begin his true project of remaking America, when Angela Davis gets nominated to the Supreme Court, private property is outlawed, and half the public gets herded onto collective farms. Or something.
To people who have a grip on reality, the things Barack Obama will do in a second term aren't particularly mysterious. We don't know exactly what will happen, of course, but we've got a pretty good idea. He'll try to solidify the ACA, his signature legislative accomplishment. He may try to achieve tax reform, which could involve slightly higher rates for the wealthy, although he'll need Republican cooperation to do it. He'll try to extricate us from Afghanistan, and he doesn't seem too keen on starting a war with Iran. And so on. Conservatives will dislike most of what he does, and liberals will like most (but not all) of it. In short, though the details aren't easy to predict, in its broad strokes a second Obama term will probably be a lot like the first Obama term. You'd have to be pretty crazy to believe otherwise.

Obama has already proven his radical neocon agenda by his repealing of American citizens habeas corpus rights allowing for their indefinite detention without due process, government sanctioned executions of American citizens without due process, warrantless wiretapping, prosecution of whistleblowers, the installation of wall street stooges in the White House, and by the killing of children and other innocents with drone strikes.
All of these regressive and tyrannical polices make Mr. Obama more radical than the Bush and Nixon combined. In addition, they make our country that much more unsafe from both internal and external forces. There was a reason why we wanted Bush and Nixon out of office: inept and shortsighted policies can have severe consequences.
Question: How many more terrorists are created for each child killed?

Let's examine the points Tujays makes:
1) Repealing Americans' habeas corups rights allowing indefinite detention.
2) executions of US citizens without due process
3) warrantless wiretapping
4) prosecution of whistleblowers
5) wall street stooges in the government
6) drone strikes killing innocent civilians.
Nice list. Unfortunately for your argument, ALL of these policies were actually begun under the George W. Bush administration, and cheered on by righties like Tujays. In fact, when liberals like me complained about these policies, we were called terrorist-loving frenchified appeasing america-haters (or some such equally inane insults).
Are liberals disappointed that Obama has continued these policies? You bet your ass we are! But make no mistake: They are what passes as consensus polices in Washington. I would take the comments of Tujays way more seriously if ANY rightie fascists had brought up these points back during the previous administration. The fact that none of them did proves to me that this has nothing to do with principle, and EVERYTHING to do with partisan hackery.

Don't forget about his evil plan to take people's guns and horde them into FEMA camps. I think he's also supposed to ship children off to re-education camps and give them teh gay or something. I can't really keep track of all the conspiracy theories.
But, to answer your question, I think the correct timeline for all these dastardly plots is, "right before the Rapture." But even in that case, why would it matter? It seems like that'd all be rendered moot during the tribulations or whatever it's called.

In many ways, Robert Zona is a very typical Corvette owner. When he purchased his new 2003 Chevy Corvette Z06, he thought it would be a great toy for weekend cruising. Though it was his first six-speed performance vehicle, he quickly became addicted to the satisfaction that only comes from rowing your own gears.
It wasn't long after that the 39-year-old dentist from Jackson, New Jersey, found himself at the dragstrip in nearby Englishtown for a show-n-go event. "I had never drag raced before, but I decided to make a few passes. After that, I was hooked."
What makes Zona unusual, then, is that he now finds himself the owner of what may be the quickest naturally aspirated C5 in existence. "[My] 9.932 at 138.80 mph is currently the fastest NA e.t. ever recorded on the forums for a C5, regardless of engine size." While it may be going too far to say reaching this remarkable level of performance was like pulling teeth, it certainly didn't come without substantial effort.
What's it take to make a C5 run in the 9s? The most obvious answer, naturally, is brute power. For this, Zona turned to the pros at Anger Management Racing, in Brick, New Jersey. Though the original 346ci LS6 is still in place, don't make the mistake of assuming it's stock. While the short-block is mostly factory issue, with the exception of fly-cut pistons for valve clearance and a host of ARP fasteners for durability, it's the attention paid to the top end that makes the magic happen.
The rest of the car was put together by Zona and Tommy Michalkowski in Zona's garage. According to Zona, "One of the most rewarding parts of the build was that Tommy encouraged a lot of input from me." Together, they bolted on a pair of TEA-ported heads, a FAST intake manifold, a custom-spec cam, American Racing headers, and a GHL exhaust system. Nothing extraordinary jumps out at you when reviewing the buildsheet, but the combination of parts, and the attention to detail when assembling them, are a big part of what makes this car so special.
Once assembled, the car was handed over to Troy Nikola of Anger Management, who began the long process of tuning it to perfection. "I spent a lot of time with Tommy and Troy, dialing in this car over the past year. [It] was a process that we built upon from each previous track experience," says Zona. "Our first time out in the spring of 2008, the car trapped 134.40 in average air. So we knew it was going to put up some big numbers once the combination was perfected.
"Since we knew what the car was capable of, our eventual goal was to run 9s. Through the summer we dialed in the car, knowing that the cold air would bring faster times. Thanks to the help of the AMR crew, we were able to run our first 9-second pass in October 2008 and shock everyone with a 138.80 mph. We were able to back up the time and mph many times and managed a total of three 9-second passes, with a best of 9.93." This, of course, brought out the skeptics.
As with any groundbreaking endeavor, Zona and crew had to tolerate the cries of foul from the nonbelievers. "Since we dealt with a lot of crap from people who couldn't understand how we ran the numbers, we thought about doing a teardown at the track." Immediately after the 9.93 pass, the intake portion of the Z06's engine was disassembled to prove that there was no nitrous-oxide system in place. "The manifold and the Vararam, air bridge, and throttle body were completely removed from the car, proving there was no way any nitrous could have been injected into the car to boost performance." Further infuriating the doubters, the car was even driven to the track, raced, and then driven home after the teardown.

Greatest geek Halloween pumpkins from around the 'net
Halloween is coming up fast and you can fully expect to see a host of ghoulies, ghosties and altogether spooky shenanigans going on on the build up to the witching hour itself. But let us not forget that scariest of darkened room dwellers, the ghastly geek. They often emerge from their grisly abodes at this time of year, moaning and a-groaning - mainly about JJ Abrams' overuse of lens flare effects on the Star Trek franchise.
They also light up the internet with their fine examples of tech-tastically carved pumpkins. And we have curated a mighty fine collection of their wares for you so that you can get in the mood for a spot of trick or treating yourself.
Games feature heavily, as does Apple and Star Wars - somewhat unsurprisingly - but there are plenty of surprise carvings too. So sit back, pour yourself a glass of bat's blood (or Vimto as we like to call it) and enjoy this vast array of amazingly reshaped vegetables, including the superb USS Enterprise versus the Millennium Falcon by habitual pumpkin fiddler Alex Wer and the painted Angry Birds pumpkins we came across a couple of years back.
You can check them all out in our gallery below.
Should you fancy having a go at this yourself, but have long since been banned from going near sharp implements and/or squash vegetables, there is a free iPad application available from carving kit specialist company Pumpkin Masters. It comes with a number of designs to carve into a virtual pumpkin, making the whole process a little less messy.
Of course, you'll have to sit with your iPad on in the window for several days, but that's a small price to pay for the ease of use. Happy Halloween y'all.

Warning: this blog contains images and video footage that may upset you.
Recently, word came to our Greenpeace office in Indonesia that a Sumatran tiger was stuck in an animal trap in an area being logged by Asia Pulp and Paper (APP). It was trapped for six days in total without food or water. After a week of suffering, forest officers arrived to evacuate the tiger – but it was too late. The tiger died during the rescue attempt.
Take action, help us fight for the 400 remaining wild Sumatran tigers and the pristine rainforest they call home. Please consider donating today.
Zamzami, a Greenpeace media campaigner, traveled to the area with the rescue team as an observer and was present for the tiger's last few hours. He describes the scene that met him: despite its ordea, the "tiger still emitted a strong wild aura" and "greeted me with an angry roar." Everyone present stood stunned and silent to see the "King of the jungle lying low, trapped and suffering in his own home."
The spot where the tiger became trapped was on the border of PT Arara Abadi, an APP acacia plantation in the province of Riau. Video footage reveals that nearby the spot where the tiger wandered into the trap, and later died, there was a large area of recently destroyed forest where active clearing was ongoing. That means a lot of disruptive activity was happening: trees were being felled and heavy machinery, like excavators, were busy clearing the rainforest. Only 13 kilometres away from where the excavators were at work is the spot where this animal spent its last days trapped, injured and starving.
Unfortunately, more tragic moments like this are the future that is in store for this majestic animal. The Sumatran tiger is already endangered, there are only around 400 remaining in the wild and - now we know – even one less than that.Yet APP operations in Indonesia continue to clear rainforest that includes tiger habitat, destroying the home and hunting grounds of the Sumatran tiger in order to feed APP's pulp and paper operations. From there, what was once rainforest ends up in all sorts of things - like throw-away toy packaging. Some of this packaging has been used by toy companies such as Hasbro, Disney and Mattel. And the future doesn't look any better. APP has ambitious expansion plans and the areas of rainforest it plans to expand into includes more tiger habitat.Someone once told me that roads in a forest are like veins – once opened, they can end up draining the forest of life. When APP builds a concession in tiger habitat, it not only destroys the forest the tiger would normally roam, sleep and hunt in – the roads it builds to carry away the timber also let in all kinds of other disruptions. People come and lay traps to hunt other animals, and even if they don't mean to interfere with the tiger, they do. When their traditional habitat is destroyed, tigers must roam even further for food and shelter, which often brings them closer to forest communities and causes more conflict.
APP must stop relying on further clearance of rainforest for its business. Destruction of rainforests in Indonesia must stop to protect animals like the Sumatran tiger, minimize the negative consequences for forest communities, and for Indonesia to be able to cut its carbon emissions contributing to climate change, most of which come from deforestation.This pulp and paper company adds insult to injury by portraying itself as a sustainable, responsible business – which acts to protect biodiversity and animals like the Sumatran tiger. It runs ads on television and in print all over the world presenting itself almost as if it is an NGO, rather than a pulp and paper business. These ads often use the tagline 'APP Cares' next to an image like the imprint of a tiger paw, giving the impression that APP cares about tigers. In reality, its operations destroy tiger habitat for profit - pushing these animals to the brink of extinction.The image that APP projects of being a caring company, committed to sustainability and conservation efforts, is revealed as a lie as soon as it is compared with images of the reality of APP operations on the ground. In addition to removing APP products from their supply chain, toy companies like Mattel, Hasbro and Disney must put in place new policies to cover all their purchases of pulp and paper products. This is the only way to ensure they will not be complicit in forest destruction in the future. The last moments of this one Sumatran tiger are just the latest example of the terrible costs of the ongoing destruction of Indonesia's rainforests – if APP continues to operate this way, there will be more.

Dear Greenpeace,
It is very sad that the Sumatran tiger is an endangered species and also that this particular tiger has died resulting from a trap that was setup not intending to catch a tiger. It is also very sad that your blatant disregard for the truth and trying to capitalise on the emotional factor of an animal dying to peddle your misconceptions actually works on daft people.
When you have two media outlets reporting that a tiger has died resulting from a trap and blaming two separate paper/pulp companies then any reasonably minded person has to look at this and suggest that facts are not in order here. APP provide financial support to an organisation whose purpose is to preserve the habitat for these animals, not to mention more trees are planted than are cut down making paper a sustainable resource that has an endless capacity to be renewed.
So this attempt to drag other companies such as Mattel etc and considering their purchasing products from APP as 'complicit' in events such as this is not only ridiculous, but goes to show that you are capable of spin and therefore are not trustworthy.
Please stop being so full or garbage, get off your high horse and actually report on facts rather than focussing on an event completely not related to the paper industry.
I'd send you a letter, on paper, but I really cannot be bothered looking up your address. That would be a waste of paper, as is reporting this drivel so thank you for doing so on your website.

Headaches, nausea, dizziness. Symptoms like these don't seem so out of the ordinary for a mother dealing with the daily pressures of caring for a child with special needs. Luz Marina Knight was experiencing all three and thought it was probably just the stress of caring for her son, Kyle, who had been diagnosed with autism in 2005 at age 4.
Hundreds of people reached out to newly elected Fresno County Sheriff Margaret Mims earlier this year when she announced she had breast cancer.
Diagnostic tests detected the disease, and for Mims, who'd just fought through and won a campaign to become the first female sheriff in Fresno County history, a new battle began.
Mims, who underwent surgery Feb. 21 at Clovis Community Medical Center, explained how diligence and expert detection helped save her life.
Clovis Community Medical Center will soon have the region's first 128-slice CT scanner, which provides twice the imaging power at half the radiation. Community Medical Centers' board approved the purchase at its July meeting.
The new CT, or computerized tomography, scanner is scheduled to be installed in November.
Many couples dream of having a baby – but for some that dream may need a little help before it becomes a reality.
At Clovis Community Medical Center's fertility center, a dedicated team of physicians and nurses focus on providing personalized care for those experiencing difficulty in conceiving.
The center has helped couples start families since 1985. It is the only fully accredited Level 3 fertility program in the Valley and draws patients from all over the globe.
When Rob Villa was rushed to Community Regional Medical Center after his family's house caught fire, he didn't realize how badly he was burned.
"Oh, I didn't think I was that bad at all. I thought maybe [I'd be released] the next day. Oh I didn't think it was that bad," Villa said.
His father Ray couldn't believe Rob actually got out of the flames.

The Caryophyllaceae, commonly called the pink family or carnation family, is a family of flowering plants. The species are dicotyledons included in the order Caryophyllales. It is a large family, with 88 genera and some 2,000 species.
This cosmopolitan family of herbaceous plants is best represented in temperate climates, with a few species growing on tropical mountains. Some of the more commonly known members include pinks and carnations (Dianthus), and Firepink and campions (Lychnis and Silene). Many species are grown as ornamental plants, and some species are widespread weeds. Most species grow in the Mediterranean and bordering regions of Europe and Asia. The number of genera and species in the southern hemisphere is rather small, although the family does contain Antarctic Pearlwort (Colobanthus quitensis), the world's southernmost dicot, which is one of only two flowering plants found in Antarctica.
The leaves are almost always opposite, rarely whorled. The blades are entire, petiolate and often stipulate. These stipules are not sheathforming.
The hermaphroditic flowers are terminal, blooming singly or in branched or forked in cymes. The inflorescence can be dichasial. This means that in the axil of each peduncle (= primary flower stalk) of the terminal flower in the cyme, two new single-flower branches sprout up on each side of and below the first flower. If the terminal flowers are absent, then this can lead to monochasia, i.e. a monoparous cyme with a single flower on each axis of the inflorescence. In the extreme, this leads to a single flower, such as in Dianthus.
The flowers are regular and mostly 5-merous, i.e. with 5 petals and 5 sepals, but sometimes with 4 petals. The sepals are free from one another or united. The petals are fringed or deeply cleft at the end. The calyx may be cylindrically inflated, as in Silene. The stamens number 5, 8 or 10. They are mostly isomerous with the perianth. The superior gynoecium has 2 to 5 carpels (members of a compound pistil) and is syncarpous, i.e. with these carpels united in a compound ovary. This ovary is 1-locular, i.e. having one chamber inside the ovary.
The fruit is non-fleshy. It is usually a capsule, less frequently a small nut.
This family is traditionally divided in three subfamilies :
The last, however, are a basal grade of rather primitive members of this family, not closely related but simply retaining many plesiomorphic traits. Instead of a subfamily, most ought to be treated as genera incertae sedis, but Corrigola and Telephium might warrant recognition as Corrigioleae. The Alsinoideae on the other hand seem to form 2 distinct clades, perhaps less some misplaced genera. Finally, the Silenoideae appear monophyletic at least for the most part, if some of the taxa misplaced in Alsinoideae are moved there; it may be that the name Caryophylloideae would apply for the revised delimitation.
However, there is rampant hybridization between many members of this family – particularly in the Silenoideae/Caryophylloideae –, and it has been found that in some the lineages of descent are highly complicated and do not readily yield to cladistic analysis.

Fun with Sneeker and the Compass Sensor
I pulled a "Ferris Bueller" today - ate lunch at a nice Cajun restaurant (I did NOT eat pancreas!... movie joke), looked at some beautiful works of art, and then had some fun with my NXT.
Okay, so my goal was to experiment a little more with the Compass Sensor (CS) block that HiTechnic just released. So, I modified Sneeker by adding the CS on the rear and up above the robot as shown here.
Now, I needed a job for this little bot to do. Typically I try to have a game plan before I start programming, so take a look at this figure to get a look inside how my mind works. I first write down a list of the steps I want the bot to perform... and then I try to draw a sketch (if it helps, and it did here) of the scenario. Notice the numbers on the drawing correspond to the numbers in the task list.
I want the bot to perform a grid search (of sorts). The solid line is the path it will follow and you'll notice that it repeats itself, but in smaller size. When it reaches point 9 on the drawing, it'll simply start over by turning North and beginning a smaller version of the larger path... I hope this is making sense.
You might also notice that steps 1 and 2 talk about calibrating the sensor and beeping when it's done... because of the sheer number of tests I was running, I got tired of it doing this portion of the program so I deleted it out... but I were really wanting to do this correctly, I'd put back in the calibration option. But not today...
Here's a screenshot of part of the program. One thing I always do is "over program" - this means that I tend to put too much code in initially and later I'll start to see ways to reduce the size of the program and make it run more efficiently. Not with this program... it's big and ugly and it's only job is to get through the search.
I use the Compass Sensor block to try and hit an "Absolute Reading" - here I've set it to send a "True" logic result to a LOOP block that will break when the Sensor reads a value between 0 and 5 (for North). For East, I checked between 85 and 90, for West between 265 and 270 and South with 175 and 180. If the sensor didn't read between a range I configured, it would spin the bot in small .05 rotations using a MOVE block. (You'll see this if you watch the video).
This writeup doesn't give you the entire picture of the project - there were plenty of problems I encountered. Here are some summaries:
1. I had to change the small movements from .1 rotation to .05 rotation because there were instances where the the robot might rotate just 1 or 2 degrees too far and miss its mark. (You'll see this in the video where it has to make a 2nd pass around to detect East - I've added narration to the video, so you won't miss it.)
2. I learned something new today about the VARIABLE block. I forgot that to set an initial value, you have to leave the block set to WRITE. I had been setting the value (to 1080 degrees or 3 rotations) and then clicking on the READ option which greyed out my set value... I won't make that mistake again.
3. Although the video doesn't show it, I included SOUND blocks after each turn that would say "3" or "4" or other number that corresponded to my earlier task list and drawing. This made it easy to figure out where in the process my bot was... with all the turning, you can quickly forget where your bot is in the process... again, watch the video and you'll hear me try to figure out where exactly the bot will be going next.
4. Finally, in the video you'll also notice that sometimes the robot will be facing East or West and needs to turn South... well, I programmed incorrectly a few times and sometimes the bot will go the LONG WAY around... spinning away from South and going 270 degrees away to only return to South eventually... good programming would have given the bot the ability to find the shortest path (90 degree turn) instead of wasting time.
Lastly, here's the link for the video. It is 5MB in size, so consider yourself warned. My apologies for the Southern accent... part Texan - part Floridian. The sound volume is a bit loud, too, and I'm trying to figure out how to lower it...

Well, the accent is not THAT bad, is it?
At least me could understand anything without a problem - as a matter fact, I've heard (I do not say "understand", mind) Americans talking in a way that did not resemble anything I've learned at school neither heard anywhere in the United Kingdom (maybe it was Spanish? Klingon?).

The accent has been worse :) As an English major in college, I had one professor who made us read our writings out loud and would penalize us for pronunciation, so you learned to hide certain "drawls" ... I do miss Texas, though... I might retire back there one day.

Jim - I have played the video now, and your accent sounds clear to me.
Matthias - yes there really are (too many) Americans who speak Klingon. By the way, 'flats' are womens shoes/sandals without a high heel.

Sure you're familiar with electronic cigarettes (or E-Cigs), but have you heard about the new V2 Cigs Menthol Disposables? Delivering over 400 puffs per e-cig and measuring only 105mm in length, they are ideal for any menthol smoker.
For those of you who aren't very familiar with how V2 e-cigs work, let me elaborate on a few things for your own comforability. Each V2 starter kit includes at least one V2 battery, an express charger (usb), and a user's manual. It's recommended to fully charge your V2 e-cig considering a fully charged V2 e-cig battery will last you about one week. Connect your flavor cartridge to the battery and enjoy the rich satisfying taste of your V2 e-cig.
Although V2 e-cigs come in multiple flavors, I'm here to fill you in on the variety of menthol flavors they provide. Starting with the most popular, the V2 Menthol, delievers a cool minty taste often compared to the taste of a nice Tic-Tac. V2 Peppermint is the perfect blend of peppermint combined with sugar and a touch of spearmint, for those of you who smoke for taste. Finally, the V2 Green Tea Menthol, the result of a nice mint flavor combined with the natural properties of green tea. Regardless of your personal choice in menthol, V2 offers something for everyone.
Most smokers who have converted from smoking cigarettes to smoking e-cigs have done so in hopes of a more healthier habit. Although this may be the case, it's the habit of smoking itself that's hard to kick. So if you plan on smoking a e-cig and want to enjoy it, V2 Menthols are the way to relax and enjoy some much needed YOU time.
Prices of cigarettes have skyrocketed in the past few months, but V2 disposable Menthols are affordable. The new 5 pack deal is a steal at just $29.95! That's cheaper than a carton of smokes!

These points are redeemable for products and every 10 points earns you $1. Other ways to earn points are to refer a friend or subscribe to the V2 newsletter.You can also get great deals and discounts when using this V2 cigs coupon.
Basically, with a deal like 5pk V2 Disposable Menthol E-Cigs floating around, there's no need to look furthur. Remember at $29.95 per 5pk, they are cheaper than a carton of cigarettes and packed with a flavor that'll make all your friend envious.

It may be a colourless, odourless and completely natural gas, but carbon dioxide is beginning to cause us a lot of problems. It only makes up a tiny fraction of the atmosphere (0.04% of all the gas by volume – or 395 parts per million) but it has a huge effect on the Earth's temperature. That's because unlike nitrogen or oxygen, carbon dioxide molecules absorb the Sun's heat rays even though they let light rays pass through, like a greenhouse.
Scientists are looking at ways to modulate the global temperature by removing some of this greenhouse gas from the air. If it works, it would be one of the few ways of geoengineering the planet with multiple benefits, beyond simply cooling the atmosphere.
Every time we breathe out, we emit carbon dioxide just like all other metabolic life forms. Meanwhile, photosynthetic organisms like plants and algae take in carbon dioxide and emit oxygen. This balance has kept the planet at a comfortably warm average temperature of 14C (57F), compared with a chilly -18C (0F) if there were no carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Klaus Lackner, director of the Lenfest Center for Sustainable Energy at Columbia University, has come up with a technique that he thinks could solve the problem. Lackner has designed an artificial tree that passively soaks up carbon dioxide from the air using "leaves" that are 1,000 times more efficient than true leaves that use photosynthesis.
"We don't need to expose the leaves to sunlight for photosynthesis like a real tree does," Lackner explains. "So our leaves can be much more closely spaced and overlapped – even configured in a honeycomb formation to make them more efficient."
The leaves look like sheets of papery plastic and are coated in a resin that contains sodium carbonate, which pulls carbon dioxide out of the air and stores it as a bicarbonate (baking soda) on the leaf. To remove the carbon dioxide, the leaves are rinsed in water vapour and can dry naturally in the wind, soaking up more carbon dioxide.
Lackner calculates that his tree can remove one tonne of carbon dioxide a day. Ten million of these trees could remove 3.6 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide a year – equivalent to about 10% of our global annual carbon dioxide emissions. "Our total emissions could be removed with 100 million trees," he says, "whereas we would need 1,000 times that in real trees to have the same effect."
If the trees were mass produced they would each initially cost around $20,000 (then falling as production takes over).

Over the last few seasons, Corvette Racing fans have taken note of a mysterious skull incorporated into the livery of the screaming-yellow C6.Rs. While there's no shortage of theories regarding the skull and its origins, the real story behind this menacing mascot has remained shrouded in mystery. Until now.
It all started one morning at Le Mans in 2001. Gary Claudio, marketing manager for GM Racing, discovered a skull-and-crossbones insignia on the tongue of the shoes issued to team members. During a prerace pep talk, Gary used the pirate analogy to fire up the team.
"What do pirates do?" barked Gary.
"They take no prisoners!" was the resound-ing reply.
"And that's what we are going to do today. We're not taking prisoners. We're going to kick some ass and win the race!"
Corvette Racing went on to make history, capturing Chevy's first GTS-class win in the 24-hour race. To commemorate the victory, Claudio presented the Pratt & Miller team with a pirate flag (now proudly displayed in the team's cafeteria) that read, "To all the pirates at Pratt & Miller Engineering, congratulations on a job well done!" The skull legend was born.
With the tacit approval of the GM brass, the team adopted the skull as a symbol of its determination to fight and win at all costs. At around the same time, in early 2002, Don Male came to work at P&M as a truck driver for the team's transporters. Almost immediately, he took on the role of the skull's most ardent advocate.
We caught up with Male at Miller Motorsports Park in Utah before the start of a recent ALMS race. As he slid out of the cabin of an 18-wheeler, its door emblazoned with the moniker "Male Man" in silver leaf, we cornered him for the real story on how the skull grew to such prominence within the team.
According to Male, the visage's first appearance came when the team placed a small silver-plastic skull in front of the No. 4 C5-R's gearshift mechanism prior to the '02 Sebring enduro. Soon after, a white flaming-skull decal appeared on the rollcage just above the driver's head.
Later that year, Male found a silver flaming-skull decal while wandering downtown Le Mans during the prerace tech-inspection process. Not surprisingly, it immediately found its way onto the car's B-pillar. This appearance marked the first time the skull was incorporated into the car's external presentation. The C5-Rs went on to score a resounding victory in the GTS class (now GT1), taking First and Second Places. Almost overnight, the skull legend was born.
The No. 4 crew soon decided to relocate the molded skull from the cockpit to the outside of the car. The initial plan-to affix it to the C5-R's nose-was nixed when the team realized that any front-end damage incurred on the track would likely destroy its newly adopted mascot. The skull was instead mounted on the center of the rear fascia, where it has remained ever since.

Pretty Peasantry #2786
Barbie® doll's ecru, mini-pleat nylon dress had a wide lace-trimmed ruffle around the neck. The waist was elasticized, the hem was lace-trimmed, and the dress was lined in matching tricot. A textured pink skirt with a waistband and a hem ruffle topped the nylon dress. Strappy, translucent, day-glow pink open-toed heels and a flower accent completed the set. The white and red flower with pink buds was either attached to the skirt's waistband or was separate. The lace differed on the two available sets as well.

War, Drama
This film is a 1959 WWII drama that focuses on members of a German bomb squad. The fatalistic soldiers pool part of their paychecks into a fund that the last surviving member of the squad will get to keep. One by one, the men meet their deaths until only two remain: Karl Wirtz (Jeff Chandler) and Eric Koertner (Jack Palance). The two men vie for the affections of Margot Hofer (Martine Carol), which adds to the growing tension between them. In the film's climax, Wirtz and Koertner are summoned to dismantle a huge bomb, which adds tension to an already stressful situation between the two of them. Director Robert Aldrich pays meticulous attention to the details of bomb deactivation.~ Michael Betzold, All Movie Guide

Having looked at the mainstream websites (currys, john lewis, argos etc) I've not found something I'm happy with. This Laptop is for my mum, she won't buy major electrical devices from an online retailer like amazon so don't offer anything from there. The two I've found are (exactly default, nothing customized or changed):
Latitude 3330 - £349.00 (offer):
- 3rd gen i3-3217U 1.80, 3MB Dual Core
- 500GB Solid State Hybrid Drive with 8GB Flash
- Intel HD Graphics 4000
- 4GB Ram
ThinkPad Edge E545 - £329.99:
- AMD A8-5550M Accelerated Processor (2.1Ghz to 3.1GHz, 4MB Cache, 1600MHz with Raedon HD 8550G Graphics)
- 500GB Hard Disk Drive
What she needs is something well built, something with solid performance, decent battery life and iPlayer/ Skype use. Her max budget is £350. If you find anything anywhere else, let me know
I'm gearing towards the dell one but I am worried about the build quality which is something I'd prefer over having something slightly better which she may not need.
Also, what is a hybrid drive?

The dominos have fallen when it comes to the coaching carousel in college football.
It's not surprising to see Tommy Tuberville and Bobby Petrino be right in the middle of it.
When Butch Jones left Cincinnati to fill the vacancy left at Tennessee, Tuberville made an unexpected move from Texas Tech to Cincinnati.
People shouldn't be extremely shocked by Tuberville's sudden departure from Lubbock. Ole Miss fans will remember how Tuberville pretty much did the same thing when he left the Rebels in 1998 to take the Auburn job.
Tuberville left the Red Raiders after only three seasons to coach at a school that has had trouble keeping a coach for that same time period.
Don't expect Tuberville to be with the Bearcats very long either.
Judging by his own comment, "there's always a next step," it's hard to imagine Tuberville being in Cincinnati for more than three or four years.
About a week ago, we learned that Gus Malzahn had decided to leave Arkansas State to return to Auburn, while Bret Bielema departed Wisconsin after seven seasons to become the new coach at Arkansas.
The Bielema hiring for the Razorbacks was a little bit difficult to believe than Malzahn with the Tigers.
When Gene Chizik was fired on The Plains, it was pretty much the thought that the job was Malzahn's if he wanted it. He had such a great experience as Auburn's offensive coordinator that it was only a matter of time before he found his way back there.
One of the stops Malzahn made in his coaching rounds was one season as the offensive coordinator at Arkansas.
The Razorbacks are now hoping that Bielema can restore some of their winning ways after last season's 4-8 finish under interim coach John L. Smith. Smith took over for Petrino, who was fired after being caught in an offseason scandal.
It has taken less than a year for Petrino to find another job as Western Kentucky made his hiring official on Monday. Maybe any potential off-the-field distractions will be avoided for Petrino this time as he works to turn another program into winners.
Petrino said that he hopes the relationship "can be as long as possible." Here is hoping that Petrino can put the past behind and do some good things with the Hilltoppers.
Back to the Southeastern Conference, it will be interesting to see which coach will be able to win with his team first.
There is Malzahn at Auburn, Bielema at Arkansas, Jones at Tennessee and Mark Stoops at Kentucky.
Malzahn has already proven he can be successful with the Tigers as offensive coordinator. Of course, one of those year's he had Cam Newton at quarterback and that made it much easier.
The story lines certainly exist and the new coaches should make for a nice attraction for SEC Media Days next July.

Understand Profile Guidelines
Dramatically increase your customer engagement opportunities with a profile that tells customers exactly what your expertise is, and how your software applications and services address their specific business needs.
Follow the guidelines below to create a strong company Marketing Profile and Application or Professional Service Profiles in the Microsoft Partner Center—and to meet the requirements for content quality and formatting. Your profiles will publish on Microsoft Pinpoint.
General Requirements for All Profile Types
Do not include quotes, URLs, or contact information such as your company's physical address, email address, or phone number in your profile description. These are entered in separate website and location boxes.
Must be a minimum of 20 words and a maximum of 250 words. If in doubt, use fewer words.
No spelling, capitalization, punctuation, or grammatical errors.
Do not include Microsoft product trademark symbols.
Do not use bold type, italics or underlining.
No rich text formatting. Use plain text formatting only.
Write Your Company Marketing Profile in Three Steps
Use the following prompts in the sequence given to create your company marketing profile. The information you provide must be current.
|Customers want to hear what you can do to help their business thrive. They want to know exactly what you can deliver—not what your vision or mission is.
State your company's expertise in the first sentence or two. Call out the Microsoft products you focus on. Examples: ABC Enterprises delivers on-site and e-learning training. We are experts in Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
Tell the benefit of what you offer or the problem you help customers solve. Example: We help your employees build practical skills they can apply immediately to improve productivity and lower your costs. We specialize in Dynamics integration and customized CRM application development.
Include a list of the services and software applications you want to promote. Use bullets to list.
Marketing profile requirements:
Describe your qualifications and expertise, or those of your company.
Must use your legal company name.
Must include a link to your company's homepage in the website box.
Do not refer to another Microsoft partner company by name, unless it is a subsidiary or somehow affiliated with your company, or you have a current agreement with that partner company to act in partnership and/or promote each other for shared work opportunities.
|The company name you list in the Partner Center must be the legal company name that is registered and licensed to do business in your region.
Write Your Application or Professional Service Profile in Two Steps
1. Name your software application or service.
Keep the name short. Use simple, straightforward language. The information you provide must be current.
Software application or service name requirements:
Must be a minimum of one word and a maximum of 10 words. If in doubt, use fewer words.
Cannot be the same as an existing Microsoft product.
If your service is reselling a Microsoft product, the words "Sales" or "Reseller" must be included in the service name. Example: Microsoft Dynamics Reseller.
Capitalize the first letter of each word. If, however, your offering name is branded, please express the name exactly as it is branded.
If you create multiple industry- or use-specific listings for an application or service, treat each listing as a unique offering. The name of each offering must clearly call out the intended use or industry.
2. Write your Application or Professional Service Description.
Your clear and succinct responses to the prompts below, in the sequence given, will create a well-written listing.
State what your application or service does and/or what customer issue it addresses.
State what Microsoft technologies this application or service enhances or builds upon.
Call out the benefits this application or service offers in a bulleted list.
Application or professional service description requirements:
Must state what your application or service is, what it does, and 3-5 customer benefits.
Must include at least one link to a page on your website providing additional details about the product being profiled. The content must correspond to the box it is entered into: demo, download, etc.
If you create multiple industry- or use-specific listings for an application or service, treat each listing as a unique offering. The description of each offering must be differentiated and targeted by using keywords that are specific to the intended use or industry.
