A Fabulous "Fine Work" 5 Guineas!William III gold 5 Guineas 1701, 2nd Laureate Bust of "Fine Work," S-3456, Schneider-480 (variety with plain scepters), Decimo Tertio edge, MS64 NGC, exceptionally choice and in fact the finest specimen this cataloguer can recall seeing, with the deeply engraved portrait of the king nothing less than exquisite and in high relief; the legends, date, and royal shield are all deeply struck; the edge beading is high and sharp except for a small area right above the king's head; only trivial contact ticks appear in the gold on the obverse, while the reverse is of staggering quality -- as fine as possible, nearly flawless. Kept from a higher technical grade because of some faint pin scratches mostly along the beading above part of the obverse legend extending from the king's name to above his head. Two of the beads below the king's long locks are flawed and serve to identify this specimen. The cartwheel luster simply glows. A delicate golden hue sheathes both sides. Above all this, the texture of the metal is awesome. Comparable to the Schneider plate coin. Clearly a candidate for finest known. We cannot locate an example of like quality sold in recent decades.
William, Prince of Orange, touched English soil on November 5, 1689, as the Catholic king James II (a convert from Protestantism) fled to France. James' new religious alliance with the church at Rome was cause for national unrest, and potential civil war. Instead what occurred was the Glorious Revolution, a bloodless affair. On January 28, 1690, Parliament declared to all that the throne had been vacated. What followed was a formal Declaration of Rights giving legal supremacy to Parliament, and acceptance of the terms of accession by the prince. On the death of Queen Mary at the very end of December 1694, William ruled alone for the first time. His silver coinage and small gold commenced in 1695, but the first large gold pieces were minted in 1699. The first 5 Guineas varied greatly on the reverse from the coins issued by him with Mary, essentially reverting to the cruciform style seen on the gold of Charles II. The king's portrait was shallowly engraved. And then Isaac Newton came to the mint in 1696. His scientific mind brought discipline to the book keeping and he attended to the coinage designs as few had before him. At the end of December 1699, Newton succeeded to the post of "master worker" or coining chief at the Royal Mint. Newton had no use for the ageing mint engravers, the Roettiers. He favored a young assistant named James Bull, and then the German engraver of great talent John Croker. At first set to simply re-engraving dies made by Roettiers, in 1698-99 he produced the famous "Flaming Hair" shillings. The king's portrait seen on those shillings bears an uncanny resemblance to the so-called "Fine Work" busts used on the 5 Guineas and 2 Guineas of 1701. The mint's own records are vague. James Bull may have contributed some effort to the creation of this portrait but the master engraver seems to have been Croker. Similar flourishes of engraving ingenuity are to be found on any number of medals of the period known to have been made by Croker, most of them signed by him. Newton's first indenture, or commission to produce coin, occurred on December 23, 1700. He had taken a particular interest in the fineness of English gold as compared to the French and Spanish gold commonly seen in commerce in England. No record exists specifying that Newton directed Croker to produce the dies used to mint this 5-Guinea coin, of superlative design and gold quality, but the dates of involvement at the mint by both men strongly suggest how this fabulous coin came to be.

1. Hamilton to Cambridge and Lake Karapiro
This stretch is 30km of mostly flat roads, so you'll just need to focus on riding steadily and not being blown off by passing cars on the way. Head out of town towards Lake Karapiro and on to the brand-new 10km of cycle path.
2. Hamilton to Raglan
For more hill challenges, and the bonus of one of the most scenic west coast beaches, try the Hamilton to Raglan ride of just under 50km. There are pretty places to stay if you want to make it a weekend overnighter.
3. Tauranga circuit
You can pick and choose any number of rides around this flat beachside conurbation. Cycle all the way along Marine Parade back to the Mount. The roads are usually pretty busy, but, thankfully, drivers seem to be calm and happy at this beachside place.
4. Rotorua
Cycling around Lake Rotorua isn't as scary (or as hilly) as biking around Lake Taupo - 43km compared to nearly 160 km - and you get to see the lovely countryside outside glam RotoVegas.
5. Hawkes Bay
As one of New Zealand's two model communities for cycling (the other is New Plymouth), the towns and countryside of Hawkes Bay are very cycle friendly. Being flat helps, as does having plenty of watering stops along the way to refuel for the next leg.

How-to Make an iTunes LP for Your Indie Band
theAppleBlog has put together a nicely detailed, step-by-step how-to for creating your very own -- or your indie band's own -- iTunes LP.
The iTunes LP is the new format Apple has been pushing in iTunes. It's more like a DVD than anything else. You have menus, music, photos, liner notes and videos. Since this is such a fresh format, not many albums are available in it yet. The good news is, you can make your own.
If you decide to give it a go, let us know how your iTunes LP turns out!

Recent Tybee Island reviews
"Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was very clean and up-to-date. The view is perfect while access to parking and, more importantly, the beach is only steps away.

"We enjoyed the stay. The condo was nice, clean and provided everything we needed. It's on the quite side of the island so went drove the busy beach one day. Great places to eat and parking at the condo was easy."Guest: Tai B. Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: June 12, 2014View listing
"We only had a few days, but the acomidations were great. We enjoyed the space that we had. there are essentially two living rooms with tv so the Kids and adults can watch what they want after going to the Beach. The short walk to the Beach, Pier and shops makes this a Great location to stay. Having a big yard allows you to have a badmitten/volley ball net or a corn hole game with no problem. Having the washer/dryer was a total save if you forget to bring an extra pair of clothes!! The only Nit picky thing i can say is that it is an older house, but that gives it the feel that goes with a Real Beach house."Guest: JasonB Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: July 3, 2014View listing
"I was delightfully surprised at this rental. It is incredibly spacious, with enough room for our entire family to spread out. With small babies, having a place to put little ones to sleep away from the noise is key and this was perfect. She had every amenity we needed to travel with young children. The adults enjoyed the large TV, comfortable beds, and very nice bathrooms. Clearly lots of attention to detail was given in décor and amenities (coffee pots, toys for kids, linens, etc.) Everything you need is right there. It is cozy and warm and the perfect place to come back and relax after a day at the beach. Within walking distance to a fabulous marshside restaurant and bar (the crab shack), it is also on the river with dock access. Bring your kayak and dip in right outside your door. Can't say enough good things. Rarely do we find a place for our family where we can all have space, sleep well and relax. We will be back!!

Things to Do on Tybee Island
- Fort Pulaski: Step back in time to the Civil War era with a visit to Fort Pulaski, which was sieged by the Union Army and considered a "landmark experiment" in military science and invention history. Today visitors can check out the Fort Pulaski National Monument that offers year-round activities. The fort itself along with the demilune, ditches, drawbridges and dikes provide you with a wonderful example of military architecture, while indoor displays showcase the fort's history from its construction to its eventual fall to improved military technology. You can even take a guided tour to learn even more interesting facts about Fort Pulaski and its history.
- Tybee Island Light Station: Since 1732, the Tybee Island Light Station has been providing safe passage for sailors and mariners into the Savannah River. This historic station is one of the most intact in the U.S. as it still has all of its support buildings spread out over 5 acres. The station itself has been rebuilt on several occasions and currently displays the day mark from 1916. At the top is a First Order Fresnel lens, and it takes 178 stairs to reach it. This lovely spot if perfect for taking photographs you'll remember forever with such a beautiful backdrop, so don't forget the camera!
- Tybee Marine Science Center: Animal and water lovers alike won't want to miss out on a trip to the Tybee Marine Science Center.

Kids will love exploring the beach walks, and everyone can appreciate the Coastal Georgia Gallery. You can even see a loggerhead sea turtle in the new aquatic display designed by the Georgia Aquarium.
- Tybee Museum: To learn even more about the history and heritage of Tybee Island, visit the Tybee Museum, which was established in 1961 by the Tybee Island Museum Association. One of the most intriguing features here is the museum's location in Battery Garland at Fort Screven, which was originally used to mount a large, rifled, long-range cannon. Throughout the space you can peruse artifacts, pictures, relics and exhibits detailing more than five centuries of history.
Dining on Tybee Island
- The Crab Shack: A favorite dining spot for visitors and locals alike is The Crab Shack, which features some of the best seafood on the island. In fact, the eatery has been voted as having the "best seafood" and "best outdoor dining" for years. There's a cool, laid-back vibe here that makes you want to just sit back and relax as you enjoy a variety of crab dishes, oysters, soups, stews and much more. Take in stunning views of the water and enjoy a nice afternoon or evening out.
- A-J's Dockside Restaurant: Another great place to grab a meal is A-J's, where you'll find even more delicious seafood. They've been serving customers since 2003, and offer both indoor and outdoor seating. From the outdoor deck, you'll be treated to amazing views of the Back River throughout your meal, adding some serious charm and ambience. If you're having dinner, you may even get to watch the sunset. Try the conch fritters, crab stew, salads, burgers or fish entrees and then rent a kayak and paddle off all those calories!
- The Breakfast Club: It's important to start the day off right with a healthy first meal, so stop by The Breakfast Club, a family owned and operated eatery that's won "best breakfast in Savannah" on several occasions. The sausages and sauces are all homemade, and the chef makes sure that everything is served fresh. Egg dishes, breakfast burritos, burgers and waffles are excellent menu choices to give you plenty of energy to get your through the day's adventures.

Why open the door to frivolous litigation and other potentially damaging repercussions without a compelling reason?
This might be a cautionary tale about the dangers of a life of frivolous luxury.
On the surface, investing in clothing factories borders on frivolous when not everyone on the continent has food and fresh water.

Need to know: CV cliches Why you can`t find a jobHF interviews
Kingsgate Consolidated Ltd. is continuing to work on plans for an initial public offering of its Thailand operations, with its hopes now on a possible listing from June next year.
The Australian precious metals miner has been looking to list its local subsidiary, Akara Mining Ltd., on the Thai bourse for several years, but the proposal has been held up by issues including legal action by a Thai investor. Earlier this year,Kingsgate Chief Executive Gavin Thomas said the company had now decided to wait for exploration licenses near its Chatree mine in central Thailand to be granted, as this would give the listing more "sizzle" in the market.
"We're still waiting for the licenses, but we are at a point where we'll be ready to rock and roll after that," he told Deal Journal Australia Tuesday. "We are hopeful of getting it up and running next year."
Indochine Mining Ltd. is seeking 13.2 million Australian dollars (US$13.6 million) to fund drilling at its flagship Mt Kare gold project in Papua New Guinea, according to a term sheet seen by Deal Journal Australia.
Mt Kare, which has both gold and silver deposits, is 15 kilometers away from Barrick Gold Corp.'s Porgera mine. The raising is being managed by Empire Securities and Petra Capital, and aims to be carried out at 14 cents a share, representing a 12.5% discount to the stock's last traded price.
Minerals explorer Alara Resources is seeking to raise 7.9 million Australian dollars (US$8.2 million) to complete a feasibility study on its Saudi Arabian Khnaiguiyah zinc-copper project, according to a term sheet seen by Deal Journal Australia.
The Petra Capital-managed offer is being conducted at 25 cents a share, a 10.7% discount to the stock's last-traded price of 28 cents a share. The raising will dilute shares on issue by 15%.
Gold juniors are rattling the tin down under.
Western Australia-based gold explorer Phoenix Gold is seeking to raise up to 22 million Australian dollars (US$22.8 million) to advance its drilling program, according to a term sheet seen by Deal Journal Australia.
The two-tranche equity raising – managed by Investec Bank and Patersons Securities – is being conducted at 30 cents a share, a 13% discount to the stock's last traded price.
PMI Gold Corporation is seeking to raise up to 100 million Canadian dollars (US$102.2 million) to fund development of its Obotan gold project in Ghana, a person familiar with the matter said Wednesday.
The bookbuild, which is taking place in both Canada and Australia, will be conducted at around 85 Canadian cents a share, representing a 8.6% discount to the stock's last closing price in Canada.
Elsewhere, Orbis Gold Ltd. is seeking to raise up to 18 million Australian dollars (US$18.2 million) to help fund drilling at its Nabanga gold project in Burkina Faso, a separate person familiar with the matter said Wednesday.
Tigers Realm Minerals, chaired by mining entrepreneur Owen Hegarty, is on the prowl for new investors.
The resources company with assets in Asia and the Americas is rattling the tin to raise up to 10 million Australian dollars (US$10.4 million) in new equity, half of which is being earmarked for new investments. Targeted deals include buying advanced copper and gold projects over the next 18 months in partnership with big private equity funds.
The offer, which launched Monday and is expected to close October 12, values the Melbourne-based company at around A$77 million and includes its 29% stake in ASX-listed Tigers Realm Coal. Directors hope to raise a further A$3 million soon afterward via a one-for-10 entitlement offer.
In a market where decent gold equity deals can be almost as rare as the commodity itself, eager Chinese buyers are scouring the Australian Outback looking to shore up access to future gold supply.
Shandong Gold Group is taking a majority stake in Focus Minerals's operations for 227.5 million Australian dollars (US$238.2 million) after six months of talks on a possible cornerstone investment deal, which had "almost exclusively" involved Chinese-based businesses, according to Focus Chairman Don Taig.
"In the past we have also had some discussions with Australian investors, but they didn't want to take a big cornerstone position. Shandong, however, is a like-minded company and was prepared to put a premium on the table," Mr. Taig told Deal Journal Australia.
Australian gold and copper miner Straits Resources is hoping it will be third time lucky as it battles to resolve a funding squeeze.
The Perth-based company is heading back to the market to raise 60 million Australian dollars (US$61.2 million) after previous share issues in February and May failed to restore its balance sheet to full health, a person familiar with the matter told Deal Journal Australia.
Global miner Anglo American is set to announce a tie-up with Australia-listed gold explorer Beadell Resources, two people familiar with the matter said.
The announcement is expected to see Anglo enter both an off-take and joint-operating agreement, both related to Beadell's Brazilian Tucano project. Tucano is adjacent to Anglo American subsidiary Anglo Ferrous Amapa Mineracao's iron-ore mining concession.
The rush of gold M&A continues.
Regis Resources has agreed a 150 million Australian dollar (US$158.4 million) scrip deal to buy the McPhillamys deposit, one of the largest gold discoveries in New South Wales state over the past decade.
It comes around six months after Deal Journal Australia revealed that U.S. mining giant Newmont Mining had received several expressions of interest in its 51% interest in the undeveloped McPhillamys deposit, which contains an estimated 2.96 million troy ounces of gold.

Looking for love in all the wrong places or searching through too many faces online? Soon, your cell phone may help you find dates and mates -- or have them find you -- anytime and anywhere.
Sure, Web-based dating services such as Match.com and eHarmony.com have become the tools of choice for an estimated 40 million online romance-seekers. But in the fast-paced digital age, electronic matchmaking services are already shifting their focus to an even larger market -- cell phone-equipped singles.
"Today, there are more people accessing the Internet worldwide through their cell phone than PCs," says Mike Baker, president of Enpocket, a mobile media company in Boston. "In the U.S., the number of mobile [phone] accounts exceed the number of homes with broadband [high-speed Internet connections]."
And companies such as Enpocket believe that just as Web-savvy singles flocked to online dating, the hundreds of millions of people who depend on their cell phones every day will catch on to mobile matchmaking.
Already in Europe and Asia, where mobile phone use far outstrips that of personal computers, mobile dating services are attracting the attention of tens of millions of wandering singles looking for love. Services such as Enpocket's SpeedDater Mobile allow tens of thousands of British users to post and search personal profiles and then anonymously "chat" with others using short text messaging service, or SMS.
Such mobile dating services are slowly making inroads in the United States as well.
Top online dating sites such as Match.com and LavaLife.com offer "mobile" versions of their Web service through almost all of the major cellular services providers in the United States. From their cell phones, Match Mobile and Lavalife Mobile users can search short profiles and text-message each other -- just as if they were online on a computer.
But Andrew Osmak, vice president of corporate development at LavaLife Mobile, says the appeal -- and ultimate success -- of such services will come because date seekers will no longer be tied to their home or office computers.
"A lot of what we do is outside, not sitting at home in front of our PCs," says Osmak. "Our users in mobile service hop on when they want, where they want to fill that immediate need and when they're satisfied, they hop off."
Osmak may think the future of online dating is in cell phones, but for now computer-based dating sites still dominate. Osmak won't disclose exactly how many use the mobile version of LavaLife, except to say they number in the "tens of thousands." Industry analysts estimate that fewer than 6 million people -- 15 percent of the online Web dating population -- in the United States use mobile matchmaking services.
Still, the industry is optimistic. At a recent mobile dating conference in San Francisco, industry analysts said mobile dating services will generate roughly $31.4 million in revenue this year, and they predict that number could jump to $215 million in the next four years. The revenue from mobile dating will jump higher when you add in the amount cellular service providers would rake in from text-messaging and access fees.
Industry watchers believe mobile phones will increasingly offer new features that will draw in many more harried date seekers. One improvement over Net-based matchmaking in particular is so-called "location-based dating."

The disposals realised a small overall profit and came after a period of general stock-market weakness as a result of Ukraine uncertainties and concerns over financial weaknesses in the Chinese economy. We believe the three shares now look undervalued on all published information, but are aware of the potential for unpleasant surprises among smaller companies and will await further trading news before deciding whether to re-invest.
In the meantime, we refreshed the portfolios with a further notional investment in Glasgow-based Smart Metering Systems and new purchases of catalogue shopping group N Brown and the Close Brothers banking concern. We have set out usual stop/loss levels, 10% below current prices, at which we advise readers to consider selling on any setback.
Our 2014 portfolio was the best of a disappointing bunch last week, limiting its overall fall to just 0.5%, despite the loss of both Infinis and Iomart. The others recorded loss of around 2% after particular weakness in Optos and brewers Greene King and Fuller Smith & Turner on worries about higher grain prices.

Week 3 brought us a match-up between two teams desperately in search of their first win. The New Orleans Saints played host to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Sunday. After losing by at least two touchdowns in their first games of the season, the Chiefs found themselves in the same predicament well into the third quarter against the Saints.However, Kansas City found a swing of momentum that would propel them to a 27-24 overtime victory. After watching the two teams play for 68:33, I've gathered some things worth sharing.Let's take a glimpse at five things we're able to take away from this game.Saints' DefenseThe Saints ended last season with the 24th ranked defense. However, when your offense is ranked No. 1 overall, poor defensive play can get overlooked. Well the Saints offense hasn't been as potent to start this season, as they've been in years past; bringing more attention to the fact that the defensive problems are just that -- a problem.The Saints defe...

A KLR rider buys the KLR, can afford the initial price or payment, but will...over time...accumulate aftermarket parts and occupy his or her spare time modifying or installing the items. This activity is a stress reliever and emotionally satisfying to the typical KLR owner. Much like Harley riders constantly install new parts and gadgets, KLR riders constantly buy new parts and accessories to suit their riding styles. We are enthusiasts, just on a budget and can't afford it all at one time!! It is fun getting to know your motorcycle on an intimate basis. KLRs allow the fun of Harley accessorizing, the thrill of BMW adventure touring and the youthfullness of dirtbiking all in one bike. At least thats why I have mine!!
Dang Cobalt, Such eloquence! I'm considering my first dual sport and after reading this post and all these pages I'm even more enclined to join the KLR brethren! Good posting, guys. Mark H.

PLATTSBURGH - Cornell Cooperative Extension of Clinton County 4-H is encouraging kids to explore the fun side of science.
The organization will host "4-H Summer Scientists," a free program for elementary- and middle school-age youths in Clinton County beginning next month. The program, explained coordinator Alexa King, will be held a three locations - Saranac Town Hall in Saranac, Northern Adirondack Central School in Ellenburg Depot, and the Ted K. Community Center in Plattsburgh.
"We went to schools asking kids what they wanted to learn about," King said of deciding on the curricula.
As a result, children at the Saranac and Ellenburg programs will learn about the science of rocketry and flight, giving them an opportunity to build rockets, gliders and planes. Children at the Plattsburgh program will be introduced to "eco-exploring."
"We take the kids to Point au Roche and show them how easy it is to walk around and appreciate all the great things we have out there," King explained of the Eco-Explorers program.
King said she's especially looking forward to bringing the program to children in the Northern Tier as past summer programs offered by CCE haven't reached out that far.
"We haven't had a chance to work with the young people in Ellenburg before, so I'm really excited we're expanding to another location," she said. "I'm really excited."
The Saranac program will be open to youths in grades 3-6 and take place Wednesdays Aug. 4, 11, 18 and 25, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. The Ellenburg program will be open to youths in grades 6-8, beginning Monday, Aug. 2. That program will be held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. and continue Tuesday, Aug. 3; Thursday, Aug. 5; and Friday, Aug. 6.
The Plattsburgh program will be open to all elementary- and middle school-age youths and also take place Aug. 4, 11, 18 and 25. That program will be held each day from 1-3 p.m.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
Is Guild Loyalty a Thing of the Past?
Ever since the end of the SWG era, I have had trouble holding on to guild members. Basically if the guild does not have the thing members are looking for at the exact moment they want it, they are gone. I asked Tarinth about it, and he said its because there are no rewards for loyalty. I don't know, were there ever a reward for loyalty outside of loyalty itself?
It occurs to me that guild loyalty was an artifact of the early days when the only people who played MMORPGs were of the "early adopter" mentality. Of course it probably seems worse to me as a Guild Wars guild leader. So much of the GW population is now under 16. I can't really expect loyalty from children. My old guildies have become doctors, dentists, lawyers and entrepreneurs with families -- they don't really have the time to be hardcore. Heck I don't have time to be hard core either...I only play between 3:00 and 6:00PM M-Th. The rest of the time I am creating stuff for GuildCafe.
Do any other guild leaders have thoughts on this matter?
Last edited by Roxianna : 10-06-2007 at 12:10 PM.
Well, the mainstream market doesn't really fit into the old MMOG scene. I'd say it's not as much of a thing of the past as it is something that will be harder and harder to come by because of the small amount of players (Well, small compared to the players who don't.) who value loyalty and communities.
Alot of the people who play MMOGs after the WoW surge probably played single player games before, and in a SP game you can shut it off when you're bored, you don't need anyone else, and the amount of time you spend with it is limited. The SP mentality is carried over to MMOGs and the communities that form here, and that just doesn't work out for the guilds who seek loyal members.
To SP gamers a guild is usually temporary, atleast from my own experience. All my friends who used to play CS, WC3 and Singleplayer games and then went to WoW didn't look at the guilds as a bunch of friends, or even a community, but only the means to an end. To improve their own characters.
I think Mavic may be right... I still have a tight-knit, very loyal and very active guild... but this is still primarily a swg guild. We developed strong loyalty to each other over time, a desire to maintain a good reputation on our server in a game where allies and enemies communicate openly in and out of game... so reputation really defines your guild... plus the struggles we went through and are still going through. Sudden trajic loss of guildmates in real life, Player cities built and lost but then regained through coordinated effort, Server-wide events that improved the game for our community, great visionary leaders who shaped the server and made us truly believe in what we were capable of. My loyalty to them remains even though i'm persuing rl goals now myself... I think just having a core group who are still active and still believe in this guild and in each other is perpetuating itself, keeping us in the guild and games we play (mostly swg and VG now), and it's been contagious enough so that new members who join over time become just as vital to carrying it on.
For my own part in it I just never stop believing in them... I've been their elected leader 3 times in the past and I think the best way I had of inspiring loyalty was by showing confidence in the greatest potential of the people around me. I think trusting in the best about people brings out their best, inspiring them to have greater self-confidence, and become more willing to take the initiative to change things for the better. I've seen the opposite happen alot too though... where someone is treated with a lack of confidence and it brings out the worst in them.
Also... just as belief in a single person's potential can inspire an individual... I think it's even more powerful when directed at a larger group of people, like a guild. People want to live up to that, are proud to be a part of it, and the guild starts to mean something great to them just because they believe it does, so they keep making it true.
The fact that we elect our leadership makes for an interesting dynamic too, I think it helps members to feel loyal knowing they have a say in how this guild is run and that any one of them has the potential to be a leader over any aspect of the guild if they show their guildmates they can do a good job at it. Plus guild leaders tend to get burned out in a hurry so it's nice to relieve them. Much of my faith in this guild is confirmed every time I see what excellent choices they make for themselves at each election, so I'm confident they'll stay in good hands long term.
wow see now I'm scared if we ever all primarily leave SWG. That's still our anchor game and most new members come to us through it.. we're still getting alot of like minded people.. but admittedly mostly refugees from guilds that aren't still in swg or servers that are less populated now. So i'd like to tell you this kind of loyalty is still alive and well but you're making me think we're like an antique now that just happens to still be in its original package and will lose value if removed from its box. =P
Roxianna based upon your original post it seems like you already have the answer....but that the answer itself sucks. With each passing day WoW affects our gaming experience more and more. Battle.net was a prophetic precursor to the mentality that WoW would usher in among gamers. The same people who will give the host 30 second or less to get the game started in a situation like this.
Host: Hey guys
Player 1: GO
Player 2:GO
Player 2:GO
Player 2:GO
Player 2:GO
Player 2:GO GOGOGOGOGOGOG!!!!1
Player 1: NUB HOST
Player 2: GO FAG!!
Now you have WoW, a blizzard game based entirely upon improving your own avatar with goodies that can only be acquired through a group effort. So these self motivated and impatient people are spreading throughout the MMOG community and looking for any guild that will serve their needs. The guild needs the players too, so they feel like they are doing YOU a favor as guild leader. This wasnt the case in the past. Loyalty has to be motivated by the status quo and it isn't. The only way you will have loyalty is if the gamer needs the guild far more than the reciprocal is true.
The hardcore are dying out right now. We are literally going extinct because there aren't any games being made for us whatsoever.
Yea Zel....you say that you haven't been having any trouble but you are saying you've consistently been in one game. That is the easiest way to keep your membership active and refresh it with people that are obviously interested in playing the game. Wait until you find your guild floating without a game though, and the whole ballgame changes very quickly.
/nod. I can certainly see how a new game can change everything. I've been harping on about reputation and that's something you can't take with you. In a new game every guild is rolling the dice all over again on becoming a success and having to rebuild their reputation from scratch.
but is it too misguided to be hopeful that for the remaining 'hardcore gamers', a community site like guildcafe that spans multiple games, networks the people who know and remember each other, could help to provide the missing community continuity that guilds face between games? And maybe help us keep some of what was accomplished in previous games; reputation-wise, a little better?
(edit: also keeping a strong player base in SWG of all games is NOT easy, lol. It's like we've already all moved to a different game twice now =P)

The British Airways Boeing 777-200ER which crash landed at London Heathrow on 17 January had adequate fuel on board and that both engines continued to generate thrust, albeit much-reduced, say investigators.
Preliminary findings from the UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch had indicated that the twinjet's Rolls-Royce Trent 800 engines had failed to respond to an auto-throttle command for increased thrust during the final stage of the approach.
In an update issued last week, however, the AAIB says both engines did initially respond to the auto-throttle command, but that the starboard engine's thrust reduced after about 3s and the port engine's thrust also reduced to a similar level 8s later.
"The engines did not shut down and both engines continued to produce thrust at an engine speed above flight-idle, but less than the commanded thrust," it adds.
Data from the flight recorders, says the AAIB, shows that an "adequate" fuel quantity was on board the twin-jet and that both the auto-throttle and engine-control commands were performing as expected, both before and after the thrust reduction.
"All possible scenarios that could explain the thrust reduction and continued lack of response of the engines to throttle-lever inputs are being examined," it adds.
It states that the analysis includes examination of the fuel-flow path between the 777's fuel tanks and the engine fuel nozzles.
All 136 passengers and 16 crew members on board the aircraft (G-YMMM) escaped with only a handful of minor injuries after the aircraft, operating flight BA038 from Beijing, suffered heavy damage after landing short of Heathrow's runway 27L.

The win builds on the capture of the UK Birds Eye account by Abbott Mead Vickers BBDO in 2007 following a pitch against Bartle Bogle Hegarty.
The BBDO network will now work with the FMCG company in six markets – Germany, Austria, Belgium, Portugal, the Netherlands and France as well as working with Birds Eye on exploring new markets.
Recent activity from AMV for Birds Eye includes the good mood food campaign featuring the Madness frontman Suggs and the current take a fresh look at Birds Eye work.
Alex von den Steinen, the chief marketing officer at Birds Eye, said: "The great work that we have done with AMV in the UK to communicate the benefits of Birds Eye frozen food was a driving factor in our decision to extend the partnership."
Birds Eye was sold by Unilever to the investment group Permira for £1.15 billion in 2006.

This pair of Scotch Precision Scissors has fine quality stainless steel blades that are precision sharpened and provide a smooth cutting action.
The scissors work best for fabric, crafts and cardstock.
1 out of 1 found this review helpful.
Recommend: No
I purchased these scissors to use for my crafts because my kitchen knife was getting dull. I couldn't bring myself to spend $20 for a pair of scissors specifically for crafts, so I purchased these. Big mistake, should have seen it coming, you get what you pay for.
A majority of my crafting has to do with ribbon (I make bows), and these scissors cannot even handle that. I had someone borrow these for a moment the SAME DAY I PURCHASED THEM and they said "you really need to get new scissors, these are the dullest I've ever used."
Now, I will take myself back to Hobby Lobby and proudly purchase a pair of $20 scissors. You live & you learn.

AT&Ts T'mo acquisition and your contract...
So I fulfilled my contractual obligations 2yrs ago and have been a T-mo customer without being locked into a contract! I currently use a unlocked at&t torch and like the masses, I'm anxiously awaiting the release of new BB's on a US GSM network! I'm intrested in purchasing a hspa+ playbook, a 9900 and the torch2. My question is if any1 understands the legalities of the network carriers contract, if I outright purchase the aforementioned (if Tmo actually gets them) and let's say to get a reduced fair on the most expensive I agree to a 2yr contract, when and if AT&T acquires Tmo can that be used to get out of a contract? Any info in this regards is greatly appreciated...

Typically, all contracts will remain in place following a merger or buyout. If you enter into a contract now (for whatever reason), it will remain in force.
Those actions (merger or buyout) will not enable the contract to be broken by the consumer.

If it's anything like AT&T wireless + Cingular, I would sign a new contract when the deal is over. The reason I say this is because with AT&T wireless, they allowed those customers to switch over w/ full upgrade eligibility even if they weren't eligible, just to get customers to switch over to the Cingular side.
I almost wish I had a T-mobile line that was either out of contract or almost out, just so I can do that.Retired CrackBerry.com Mod | Retired Android Central Mod | Tech Enthusiast

Part of the problem is that AT&T plans to use T-Mobiles HSPA+ network frequencies to deploy LTE. When they do this I think T-Mobile customers in those areas will only have 2G data. Personally hoping that the merger doesn't happen. I want to and probably will switch to T-mobile when the new Berries come out and I don't like AT&T.

President Obama spoke today, World AIDS Day, on the status of AIDS in America and to encourage all Americans to keep fighting because we will win against HIV/AIDS — but the fight is not over. He shares painful statistics on the spread of infection in the United States, but do not forget HIV/AIDS is a global issue, with an estimated 33.3 million infected worldwide. We've got to do more.
Learn as much as you can. Don't feed into the social stigma. Connect with an organization. Use your voice. Get tested. Know your status. Let's stand together and fight HIV/AIDS.

I voted for him. I Donated money. And saw how he bent to please the corrupted powerful.
I still want to think he is a good guy. But I don't have much hope. He is just a puppet.
If big pharmaceutical companies don't want the cure. He will kiss their butts.
Of course Care2 will only post positive articles about Obama, but no balance. No words on the fact that Obama just legalized horse slaughter for U.S. consumption after he promised not to let such a thing happen?
I think he will keep his word.
Go get 'em Jane! Can't send you a green star (hit the wall again this week)
I, however am old enough to remember when sex started to become DEADLY because of this new disease "GRID" (Gay Related Immune Deficiency)...
Is everybody on here so young they don't remember how AIDS spread in America? AIDS was discovered in New York and there were only a handful of IV drug users who had it. The government knew about it. It could have been contained right then EXCEPT the CATHOLIC CHURCH would not ALLOW public health officials to TELL PEOPLE TO USE CONDOMS
because the CATHOLIC CHURCH FORBID the USE OF CONDOMS. Also public health officials COULD HAVE given them clean needles like the UK does for heroin addicts but NO.
They let it spread all over America, thanks to the CATHOLIC CHURCH. After that our blood supply got infected and people who were hospitalized, received AIDS blood and died, even NUNS. Doctors and medical people got needle sticks and got AIDS. When the Red Cross was called down on the infected blood supply, a memo was sent out saying that a few deaths was ok with them cause they had no way to test for it. Now after ALL these years the POPE last November FINALLY said it was ok to use condoms but only for medical reasons. The CATHOLIC CHURCH CAUSED ALL THIS DEATH AND SUFFERING because of their stubborness, their stupidity, their holier than thou, arrogant, controlling attitude. And on top of that thousands of years of pedophilia has been going on in the Catholic Church and all the while they were raping little boys in the butt, they were calling THEM GAY. Everything about the Catholic Church and their whole history makes me puke. I worked in a hospital my whole life so I know
Lwhy is it when such a serious topic as ending this horrific disease comes up there are always those that have to jump in with their anti-gay crap?
We are in for a much longer haul to meet this goal untill,you take your blinders off and put your prejudices aside.
And thank you President Obama. Just wish you'd said more, sooner.
It's a serious problem for our country, and nations all around the globe. One way to combat any spread of this disease is of course education-sex education in schools. How to use barrier contraceptives, because calls for teaching abstinence only will not work with teens. Abstinence of course would be preferred, but it is folly and not at all realistic to pretend it will work. We need to arm our youth with all the facts.

Training camp opens tomorrow at Verizon Center. Here is the first of three keys to this year's camp: Since the Wizards did little to upgrade the roster aside from adding three draft picks, the team's improvement will likely depend on John Wall's progression in his second season. Wall said he wasn't healthy for most of his first campaign – when he dealt with injuries to his knees and left foot but still averaged 16.4 points, 8.3 assists and 4.6 rebounds and finished a distant second to Blake Griffin for rookie of the year honors.
