The area is in the London postal district of E12. Romford Road and High Street North are the main routes through the area.
The local population is now mainly Asian. It used to be a thriving white working class area, but successive immigration has transformed it. Though there are still pockets of elderly white working class - English and Irish. Newham also has a large number of ethnic minority residents and, more recently from the EU, residents from Eastern Europe.
Manor Park's Itchycoo Park (officially Little Ilford Park) was made famous in a song by the Small Faces, whose lead singer Steve Marriott lived in the area. Manor Park also has an amateur football team called A.C. Manor Park playing in the AFL. Manor Park is a common place-name: there is an area in Hither Green, South London called Manor Park, and there are numerous London parks called Manor Park.
Manor Park was part of the County Borough of East Ham, Essex until 1965, when Greater London was created.

First couple days in Bangkok
Bangkok is hot! Although, it's not too bad when it sprinkles during the day because that cools you off a lot. The food is very different here than the United States. It's great, but it's hard to understand what everything is (the mango is my favorite.) Last night we ate tons of Thai food, which was nice for our first night here! I am so excited to continue exploring everywhere in Thailand the rest of the month!!

Java Interactive TV
This morning I attended the Java TV Track kickoff session. There were representatives from Sun, CableLabs, Time Warner, and Sony. They talked about the OpenCable initiative, one of its drivers is to encourage set-top supplier diversity – similar to the PC industry.
OCAP is the Open Cable Application Platform, which is based on Java. An SDK is available for developers interested in developing interactive TV applications, you can download it from http://www.opencable.com/ocap. One of my favorite TV channels is the Toronto-based CityNews, which has a ticker running across the screen with news from various sources. It would be really cool if they make it possible for viewers to replace that ticker with their favorite RSS feed. :-)
During the session it was announced that TiVO will be offered by several cable companies on existing cables, so be on the look out for offers from your cable providers to upgrade your cable box. :-)
Next, they discussed BD-J or Blue-ray Disc Java is the platform for supporting advanced content for Blu-ray Disc. This technology allows much more sophisticated bonus features on Blu-ray Disc titles than that provided by standard DVD. A couple of demos of Blu-ray Disc were shown: Big Fish, and Open Season. If you are a content developer, you might be interested in the BD-J application contest. For more information on BD-J, please see http://java.sun.com/products/javatv. Q.

BOTH research teams were tracking disasters that summer of 1993. But apart from the converted fishing boat they were sailing in, that was all they had in common.
Everyone slaved round the clock, lowering surveillance equipment into the Black Sea over the side of the Aquanaut or peering at computer screens or down microscopes below decks. In rare moments of inactivity they would marvel at the starkly different nature of their missions. The team led by Kazimieras Shimkus, a marine geologist at Russia's Shirshov Oceanology Institute, was hunting for traces of radioactive fallout from Chernobyl. Bill Ryan and Walt Pitman, marine geologists at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in New York, were seeking something much older, and far more romantic: signs of an ancient deluge that could, they believe, have spawned the flood myths of Noah and Gilgamesh. And, with the Russians' help, they found what they were looking for.

Young: Late first-half leveller was critical moment
Luke Young said going in at half-time level rather than ahead was a big factor in Villa's defeat to Tottenham.
The reliable right-back thinks it might have been a different story if Gerard Houllier's men had been able to see out the first period.
Instead, Villa went down courtesy of two Rafael Van Der Vaart efforts.
In spite of the former Real Madrid midfielder's column inches in the following day's newspapers, Young was adamant Peter Crouch made the difference.
He said: "The equalising goal was a big factor in the game.
"Obviously we had a few minutes to see out and we couldn't.
"Going into the dressing room level rather than ahead after such a good half where we were on top was disappointing.
"Van Der Vaart will go down as the match-winner. When you lose 2-1 to Tottenham, you expect to be cut up with some super play but we lost to two balls into the air to Peter Crouch
"You take him out of the side and I think we would have come away with something."
Young also paid tribute to Emile Heskey, who worked tirelessly for the side and created the opening goal, before being brought off after sustaining a deadleg.
He added: "That's what he does for us.
"Big Em gives you absolutely everything he's got, every time he plays.
"While he was on, he didn't give them a second's breather.
"He shut down the defender, made him make a mistake, nicked the ball off him, produced the cross and we then got the goal.
"It was disappointing that he had to go off because he was causing them a lot of problems."

I think the one with the hole is in the reservoir above the hoover dam. it's a drainage tunnel to prevent the water from getting too high.

It's all been done. Nothing new here. Also: "each one tells a story"? really really, thats the best you could do? Have you ever had a creative thought in your head or have you lived with cliches for your entire life. Please do enlighten us with some of these "stories".

i think it should say which photos are real, and which are fake. better yet, have a separate album for each, don't combine real photos with fake ones – that make no sense. other than that, i'm not really sure what's so awesome about the pic of the girl, there are millions of photos online like that, nothing special at all about it.

@Bird Lives:
Yes, you did a wonderful job of not littering the message board. In fact, associating a specific political candidate with someone's dislike of these photos when there are no actual ties is a GREAT way to avoid littering the message board.
I really fail to see how telling someone you know absolutely NOTHING about to "go live with their Hero Sarah Palin" is an insult. Why don't you take your political insults somewhere else, like an Obama fan club.
See, I can do it too.
john Said:

Bird lives, don't be an idiot, just because the guy doesn't like the pictures doesn't mean he is a conservative. He sounds more like a liberal to me, acting like he is some kind of authority on photography when he is really just an elitist douche.

To people like Kenny, does it really matter if an imaged is Photoshopped to make it better? Be reasonable, what would a lot of the photos out there look like without digital enhancement? Photoshopping is a skill in it's own right, and deserves respect for the artist. Bravo, these are great shots.

The 2 cups picture is actually a piece of art in a museum. The "glas" looking fields are irrigated with the reflection of the sky and sun they look like pieces of glass. I think it's Tailand or Tibet. They mostely do this in Tibet. Most pictures are real some are photoshoped. But I absolutely love them! They're gorgeous!
GJP Said:
February 1st, 2009 at 4:31 am
The second from the bottom is absolutely stunning.
Kenny I think you should probably publish your own pictures instead of deriding others to bolster your own self esteem. It is really sad when "critics" have an axe to grind because of their own inadequacies.
Great pictures, keep it up.
Captainllama Said:
February 1st, 2009 at 4:50 am
Beautiful, fresh, surprising images.
Re: kenny, wam, douchebag, jeff. They are "pictures" not reportage and as such it is valid to include manipulations. It is fairly clear 'the paint' and 'the fire in glass' are composites, probably the colour has been enhanced in the village and others, and after all we manipulate reality the moment the shutter is pressed.

Gavin Said:

The picture with the colorful houses is Manarola, and it is one of the villages in the Cinque Terre in Italy. That one's been modified a wee bit to enhance the colors but they really are quite beautiful. Great selection of images!

That hole is in a artificial lake in Macedonia, near Debar.
This water runs to a power station.
When the dam breaks my town is gone. Said:
February 2nd, 2009 at 12:11 am
That 'hole' is more commonly called the glory hole. Located at the Monticello Dam at Lake Berryessa. Lived below this Dam for the first 23 years of my life. It is a real neat spectacle to see when the lake overflows into the hole for release. For more info here is a link. http://www.usbr.gov/mp/berryessa/facts.html
Johnny Said:
February 2nd, 2009 at 1:03 am
OK then, Kenny. What would you say besides, "All been done, nothing new here". Is that the best you could do? The putting down of others is the easiest form of criticism. How old are you…17?
lucy Said:
February 2nd, 2009 at 8:14 am
the one with the plughole could be the lady bower reservoir near sheffield. its strange to see, from the edge of the reservoir you lean out to look down the plug hole and you can see about 10 feet down but you can't see the bottom, its a very deep hole.

The one of the rice patties: I want to commission a stained glass work that looks just like it. But my favorite of all of these is the train, with the guy looking out…it is sort of mind-bending and freaky.

kenny was right, if a little harsh. These are all nice, but I've seen other versions of them for years now. And, the comments on this board are not discussions, but merely congratulations–each is a repeat of the one before.
I like the city with the river coming out of a massive tube thing–it strikes me as being subtly post-apocalyptic. The train image is nicely disorienting–everything seems perfectly parallel, so it takes a good moment to see that it is sideways. I think you should be careful of your cityscapes–they look a lot like the hyped-up, cheesy landscapes people sell as postcards. You might be going for that (perhaps shooting for magazines), so whatevs.

It is a good collection, but what's with the message board. You can't just have compliments without critiques. Shame on the noobs who condemn Kenny for not seeing what they see. If an image is photoshopped then it can't be viewed from the same perception as one that is not. Cameras make photographs, what does Photoshop make?
I would have to agree with Kenny, the images may be very technically skilled but I am more of a fan of the basics, leave the computer out of your Dark Room.
Art is as much about the process as the product. If your going to get upset because someone doesn't like your art then don't become an artist or join a photoblog website.

To all who have something against photoshop: Get over it. There is nothing wrong with using software to touch up photographs. Ansel Adams using burning and dodging techniques in the dark room back in his day. Post processing has been a staple of photography for many many years now. Almost every pic you see in ads, magazines, and various other places have been post processed in some way. The fact that we have a great program to do amazing things with is nothing to be ashamed of. I am sure if AA was around today he would dabble in PS as well. I can't stand it when the "shopped" comments are made. Big deal. PS takes skill and patience to create these aw inspiring photos.

For those having difficulty discerning some objects, the river is actually coming out of a paint can. You can see the cheap handle and the 'lip' that paint cans have.
I think the cat's reflection in the cat-fish-baby picture should have been more opaque like the baby's. Still, very cool images. The valley (last one) was my favorite.

Sure they are great pics, but they are photoshopped manips, mostly. That just doesn't bring in as much respect as 'real' photography does, get over it. Go to http://www.deviantart.com and you will be assaulted by thousands of images just like these. Maybe Kenny really has seen them all before.

zonk: The town in the 6th image from the top is Cinqueterre. Check out LeCinqueterre.org
The Cinque Terre are one of the most uncontaminated areas in the Mediterranean Sea. Five miles of rocky coast among two promontories, thousands of kilometres of dry-laid stone walls, five small towns castled up on stone spurs in minuscule creeks. For their history and their position, the Cinque Terre have not suffered a massive expansion. The vineyards, typical of this area, have contributed to create a unique landscape with dry-laid stone walls, winding paths, enchanting beaches between cliffs and clear waters.

All I have to say is if you don't like the pictures being taken, instead of whimpering like little children about how sad it is we photoshop our pictures and how "kenny," (who ever the hell that special little waste of air is) is right, maybe you can spend money, buy a real camera, and not one of those ridiculous point and shoots, and post your own pictures. Then, after every moron on the internet uses your pictures to make political and religious statements, snarks away at how "lame" and "crappy" everything looks, and ruins what should ever have been just constructive criticism, you can open your tiny, insignificant minds, and realize that the real wonder is that any of you knows how to type on a computer-you wouldn't know photography if someone took off a REAL camera and decked you in the face with it.

This chain, with its familiar blue roof, has been a staple around here since forever.
The parking lot at this location is very small, and there's always a wait for a table if you come late morning on a Sunday. And that's usually when we come. The waiting area can get a bit crowded. . .
The food? It's an inexpensive chain, you are not going to find gourmet cuisine. But you will find fairly decent pancakes and breakfast foods.
He ordered a pancake combo -- two pancakes topped with strawberries and whipped cream, two eggs, bacon and sausage.
I wanted french toast. There were numerous options, including stuffed. I chose the brioche with strawberries and blueberries. Next time I"d like to try the bananas foster, it also looked good. Broche was excellent, berries were sweet. I think the whipped cream comes out of a can, but that's ok.
Coffee was way too string and bitter. waiter was a bit inattentive.
Overall not a bad meal for the price.

Mogadishu — Somalia's newly elected president Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed told Monday Islamist leaders and commanders of government forces that he was ready to practice the Sharia law.
Somali's president Sharif Sheik Ahmed was attending a large meeting in former Police Traffic Centre in Mogadishu on Monday, and encouraged peace and forgiveness to the Somalis.
Sheik Abdulqadir Ali Omar, the leader of the Islamic Courts Union and Gen. Abdi Hassan Awale( Qeibdid), the commander of the Somali police forces shook hands and said they made up and reconciled.
Said Dhere, the commander of the Somali military forces and some caretaker government ministers attended the meeting.
"We consider the role of every Somali citizen who can help bring peace to the nation," said President Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed.
Mr. Ahmed called for international aid and urged civilians uprooted by two years of fighting to return home
The president said he would build the national security forces and called for the opposition to join his government to safe the country.
The newly-elected leader had said he would form an inclusive government and extend a hand to armed groups still opposed to the UN-sponsored reconciliation effort.
Sheikh Sharif Ahmed, the young cleric and former opposition leader, was elected as Somali's president in Djibouti, but he faces a daunting task of bringing change to the war- torn nation of Somalia, which has not had a central government for eighteen years.

Leading the way: Deans Dan Gelo and George Perry are guides in giving to SECC
(Oct. 29, 2010)--As deans of the UTSA liberal and fine arts and sciences colleges, Dan Gelo and George Perry command respect from hundreds of faculty members, staff and students. But, their leadership extends beyond academics -- Gelo and Perry guide their colleges in giving to the UTSA State Employee Charitable Campaign.
Gelo finds satisfaction in donating more than money. For the last eight years, he has found time in his schedule to volunteer for the SECC Presidential Advisory Committee. Not only can he contribute to the campaign in a unique way, but also he gets to work with people he normally wouldn't.
He encourages faculty in COLFA to give because he believes UTSA needs to show that it is a leader in helping others in the community. "We are often the beneficiaries of charitable giving as we pursue our educational mission," Gelo said. "The SECC makes it convenient to give to those efforts that matter most to each one of us."
Because their son was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes when he was four years old, he and his wife give to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and find it encouraging to know that progress is being made on treatments and a cure.
Like Gelo, Perry believes it is important for faculty to participate in giving through the SECC. "Faculty giving increases the link and reflects UTSA's commitment to the San Antonio community," he said. In the months leading up to the campaign and during the campaign, Perry uses his regular dean's executive council meetings to encourage participation among COS faculty.
In order to make a larger impact, Perry gives toward the cause that he also researches, Alzheimer's disease. By donating through the SECC and sitting on their scientific advisory council, he hopes the Alzheimer's Research and Prevention Foundation will make strides in preventing and combating the devastating disease.
When it comes to giving out of their hearts and participating in the SECC, both Gelo and Perry have learned that the best way to lead is by example.

Hortiscope: Take steps to keep insects away from treeQ: I have what I believe is an amur maple that is about 5 years old. I just noticed that the tree has a hole in the trunk. The hole is about 3 inches long and an inch or so wide. I saw something inside the hole and dug it out, but it fell in the snow and I couldn't find it again. It looked like a grayish-white oval bug. This hole goes about halfway through the trunk. Last summer, the tree did fine. However, I cannot imagine a hole this deep is good for it. Is this tree a goner?

Though African Cats is G-rated, scenes of animals chowing down on other animals are not for the faint of heart or delicate of stomach. I don't think it's suitable for those under 6, and they should be prepared for real animal behavior. But it's deeply involving and primally moving. show more

I Loved the movie and so did my 7 yr old daughter. Cinematography was beautiful and the story very real! my daughter was sorry about the cubs and the hiennas but I loved the realism. More movies like this should be made. I\'d like to see something on my favorite animal......the tiger.

Question 6
6. Do you have a follow-up appointment?
Getting to your follow-up visit is essential to your health and well being.
Talk with your doctor about your follow-up clinic visit. Your nurses will give you a discharge sheet with the date and location of your next clinic visit. This visit is a time for you to talk with your doctor about how you are doing at home, renew medications and get your questions answered.
It is important for you to know the address and phone number of the clinic where you have an appointment.
Here are some clinics in Dane County:
Wisconsin Psychiatric Institute and Clinic (WisPic)6001 Research Park Blvd.

Original Post:
This may be a reasonable change to the set bonus. However we don't make wish lists for changes to the game we want Blizzard to make for us, but rather use math to find the theoretical best practices for the game they already made. This post is more appropriate for the official forums, where the developers are able to read and respond to player communication. (Your post in the frost thread is much more suited to this site.)
If they keep the 4p bonus to affect DT they should also add a damage modifier to it like: "While DT is active DC increases your pet damage done by X% per cast, stacking up to Y times."
X should be something like 15%; Y should be like 10 (we get ~13 DCs, without AMS soaking, during DT, taking Mendenbarr numbers so enough to get full stacks every DT).
At the moment seems rather weak but I like the idea.

Multi-award winning singer John Anderson will play a free concert for Great American Trucking Show attendees Friday, Aug. 24, at the Dallas Convention Center.
The Mobil Delvac-sponsored concert starts at 5:30 p.m, and tickets will be available on a first-come, first-served basis starting Aug. 24 at 9 a.m. at the Mobil Delvac tent in the show's registration lobby.
In the early 1980s, Anderson gained fame with hits such as "Swingin'" – the Country Music Association's 1983 Song of the Year – "Wild and Blue," "I'm Just an Old Chunk of Coal," "1959," "I Just Came Home to Count the Memories" and "Black Sheep."
He returned to prominence in the 1990s with the release of his platinum-plus album, Seminole Wind. The lead single from that album, "Straight Tequila Night," became a No. 1 hit on country charts. The album's title track also reached No. 1.
He's since released five other albums.
The 2012 Great American Trucking Show will have more than 500 exhibitors, the Pride & Polish National Championship, SmartSessions educational seminars and a Driver Recruitment Pavilion.
GATS will also host the Commercial Vehicle Outlook Conference, produced in conjunction with Randall-Reilly and the Heavy Duty Manufacturers Association, prior to the show.
