Torstar Corporation Reports Third Quarter Results06:30 EDT Wednesday, October 31, 2012TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - Oct. 31, 2012) - Torstar Corporation (TSX:TS.B) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012.Highlights for the quarter:Revenue was $355.3 million in the third quarter of 2012, down $23.4 million (6.2%) from $378.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and TMGTV product sales, revenue was down $16.0 million (4.5%). EBITDA (see "non-IFRS measures") was $43.2 million in the third quarter of 2012, down $10.5 million from $53.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. Net income attributable to equity shareholders was $14.1 million ($0.18 per share) in the third quarter down $11.1 million ($0.14 per share) from $25.2 million ($0.32 per share) last year. Adjusted earnings per share (excluding for both years restructuring and other charges, non-cash foreign exchange, loss of associated businesses and adjustments to contingent consideration) was $0.29 in the third quarter of 2012, down $0.08 from $0.37 in the third quarter of 2011. Net debt was $159.5 million at September 30, 2012, up $2.3 million from $157.2 million at June 30, 2012. "Results in the quarter were not immune from the challenges of the current environment," said David Holland, President and CEO of Torstar Corporation. "EBITDA of $43.2 million was down $10.5 million versus prior year. In the Media Segment, after experiencing some improvement in year-over-year trending in July and August, the advertising trend weakened in September, resulting in EBITDA of $26.7 million in the quarter, down $6.1 million versus prior year. At Harlequin, given the particularly strong performance in the third quarter of 2011, results were lower as expected. The decline of $5.0 million was more than anticipated as results were affected by the market share impact of the exceptional performance of a competitor's bestseller and weak global economic conditions. On a positive note at Harlequin, the print market in the third quarter continued to exhibit the stability that emerged in the second quarter.""Looking forward, visibility remains limited. In the Media Segment, the advertising weakness experienced in September has continued into October. As we did this quarter, we will continue to take action on costs within the Media Segment as we work through the current challenges. At Harlequin, we would anticipate a modest decline in results in the fourth quarter attributable to factors such as the increase in digital royalty rates and weak global economic conditions.""Across the Torstar operations, we are very committed to the long-term and will continue investing back into the business when appropriate. Our modest leverage is beneficial as we continue to progress and adapt to this dynamic environment."The following table provides a continuity of earnings per share from 2011 to 2012:Third QuarterNet income attributable to equity shareholders per share 2011$0.32Changes• Operations(0.08)•Restructuring and other charges(0.06)•Non-cash foreign exchange0.04•Loss of associated businesses(0.03)•Adjustment to contingent consideration(0.01)Net income attributable to equity shareholders per share 2012$0.18OPERATING RESULTS - THIRD QUARTER 2012 Overall PerformanceThe following table sets out the segmented results for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.Third Quarter 2012Third Quarter 2011(in $000's)MediaBookPublishingCorporateTotalMediaBookPublishingCorporateTotalOperating revenue$247,531$107,805$355,336$262,980$115,697$378,677Salaries and benefits(101,622)(22,795)$(2,487)(126,904)(99,817)(24,760)$(3,036)(127,613)Other operating costs(119,259)(65,228)(775)(185,262)(130,414)(66,156)(803)(197,373)EBITDA26,65019,782(3,262)43,17032,74924,781(3,839)53,691Amortization & depreciation(8,525)(1,030)(10)(9,565)(7,461)(1,024)(15)(8,500)Operating earnings18,12518,752(3,272)33,60525,28823,757(3,854)45,191Restructuring and other charges(7,547)(336)(7,883)(1,523)(438)(1,961)Operating profit$10,578$18,416$(3,272)$25,722$23,765$23,319$(3,854)$43,230 Revenue Total revenue was $355.3 million in the third quarter of 2012, down $23.4 million (6.2%) from $378.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and Metroland Media Group's TMGTV product sales, revenue was down $16.0 million (4.5%) in the third quarter.Media Segment revenues were down $15.5 million in the third quarter of 2012 including an increase of $9.5 million from acquisitions made in 2011 and a decrease of $16.8 million in product sale revenues in Metroland Media Group's TMGTV operations. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and product sales, revenues were down $8.2 million in the quarter, or 3.4%. The declines in product sale revenues in Metroland Media Group's TMGTV operations are consistent with expected product life cycles in this business. Digital revenues were down in the quarter. The quarter was impacted by the comparison to particularly strong digital revenue in 2011 which included the roll-out of WagJag. The quarter was also impacted by a change in accounting for the investment in Tuango in the first quarter of 2012 (changed to equity accounting in the first quarter of 2012 when Torstar's ownership interest decreased to 38.2%). Digital revenues in 2012 were 11.4% of total Media Segment revenues in the third quarter versus 11.2% last year.Book Publishing Segment revenues were down $7.9 million in the third quarter of 2012 including a $1.9 million decline from the impact of foreign exchange. Excluding the impact of foreign exchange, revenues were down $6.0 million in the quarter with declines in print revenues more than offsetting digital revenue growth. EBITDA Total EBITDA was $43.2 million in the third quarter of 2012, down $10.5 million from $53.7 million in the third quarter of 2011.Media Segment EBITDA was down $6.1 million in the third quarter. Prior year acquisitions provided $1.1 million of EBITDA growth in the quarter. Advertising revenue declines and Metroland Media Group's TMGTV lower product sales were partially offset by $4.4 million of cost savings from restructuring initiatives, lower marketing costs in the digital properties and general cost savings.Book Publishing Segment EBITDA decreased $5.0 million in the third quarter. The third quarter included revenue declines in most markets and increased spending in the North American digital business.Corporate expenses were $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2012, down $0.5 million from $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2011. The decrease was primarily related to year over year differences in the mark-to-market of a share-based hedging instrument. Restructuring and other charges Restructuring and other charges of $7.9 million were recorded in the third quarter of 2012. In 2011, restructuring and other charges were $2.0 million in the third quarter. In the third quarter of 2012, the Media Segment recorded $6.6 million of restructuring charges and $1.0 million of impairment charges related to software and property, plant and equipment. In the third quarter of 2011, the Media Segment recorded $1.5 million of restructuring charges. The restructuring charges reflect the ongoing focus on cost reduction. In the third quarter, the Book Publishing Segment also recorded restructuring charges of $0.3 million in 2012 and $0.4 million in 2011. Operating profit Operating profit was $25.7 million in the third quarter of 2012, down $17.5 million from $43.2 million in the third quarter of 2011. Loss of associated businesses The loss of associated businesses was $3.1 million in the third quarter of 2012 versus losses in 2011 of $0.6 million. The 2012 loss included a loss of $2.7 million from Blue Ant in the quarter. Blue Ant completed its acquisition of High Fidelity HDTV in the quarter and the loss includes expenses for Canadian Radio-television Telecommunication Commission benefit obligations and reorganization charges. The Shop.ca website was launched late in the second quarter of 2012 and Torstar's loss was $0.5 million in the third quarter. The 2011 loss in the third quarter included a loss of $0.5 million from Canadian Press and a loss of $0.1 million from Q-ponz Inc. Net income attributable to equity shareholders Torstar reported net income attributable to equity shareholders of $14.1 million or $0.18 per share in the third quarter of 2012 down $11.1 million or $0.14 per share from $25.2 million or $0.32 per share in the third quarter of 2011.DIVIDENDOn October 30, 2012, Torstar declared a quarterly dividend of 13.125 cents per share on its Class A shares and Class B non-voting shares, payable on December 31, 2012, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 7, 2012.

Non-IFRS measures In addition to operating profit, as presented in the consolidated statement of income, management uses EBITDA and operating earnings as measures to assess the consolidated performance and the performance of the reporting units and business segments.EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is a measure that is also used by many of Torstar's shareholders, creditors, other stakeholders and analysts as a proxy for the amount of cash generated by Torstar's operations or by a reporting unit or business segment. EBITDA is not the actual cash provided by operating activities and is not a recognized measure of financial performance under IFRS. Torstar calculates EBITDA as operating revenue less salaries and benefits and other operating costs as presented on the consolidated statement of income. EBITDA excludes restructuring and other charges. Torstar's method of calculating EBITDA may differ from other companies and accordingly may not be comparable to measures used by other companies.Operating earnings is used by management to represent the results of ongoing operations and is not a recognized measure of financial performance under IFRS. Torstar calculates operating earnings as operating revenue less other operating costs, salaries and benefits and amortization and depreciation.

Upon first venturing to write about politics 20 years ago, I held naive views about political journalism. Specifically, I imagined that factual accuracy mattered as much as it did in the kinds of books and magazine pieces I'd written on nonpolitical topics: opinionated, yes, but grounded in careful reporting.
Otherwise, why bother?

Run, Jeb, run.
I mean it, despite two powerful arguments against a presidential run by Jeb Bush -- one specific to the former Florida governor, one more generic.
Republican operative Grover Norquist used to quip about shrinking government to the point where it would get small enough to drown in the bathtub. You probably thought he was kidding.
The University of North Texas, best known for its top-notch jazz program and sometimes for its "Mean Green" football team, might soon become known as Frack U.
UNT (where I went to college back in the Paleocene Epoch) and the good people of the surrounding city of Denton are at the center of an epochal fight between Big Oil and common sense.
If there is any upside to the constant blabber from a politician such as Chris Christie, it is that he blurts out what others like him would never say in public -- for instance, his recent remarks at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
By now, I'm sure you're asking yourself: If the Republicans take control of the Senate in next week's elections, what would it mean to me?
Excellent question!
My brother would have turned 29 the other day. Thus begins the season of difficult anniversaries.
Six years ago, my baby bro turned 23. It was 2008, a week before Barack Obama's first presidential election. Hope and change were in the air. I had a new job and a new car, and life was good.
Then, just a few weeks later, all the hope died. But boy, did I get some change.

Dutch rock
Dutch rock is a form of rock music produced in the Netherlands, primarily in the English language as well as in Dutch.
Pioneers of Dutch rock were the so-called Indorock bands from the late 1950s, like The Tielman Brothers and the Blue Diamonds. They played rock guitar instrumentals when most of the Dutch youth had hardly heard of rock 'n' roll. They stemmed from the Indo community in The Hague and were pivotal in earning that city the title of Beatstad ('Beat city') in later years. With 60s bands like Golden Earring and Shocking Blue, and Kane and Anouk in the 90s, The Hague became synonymous for main stream rock.
More progressive music emerged in the 1960s in Amsterdam. In 1964 (see 1964 in music), The Outsiders were the first Dutch psychedelic rock band to become successful. Well known was the 'Haagse Scene' - many of the popular bands of the 60s came from The Hague, such as Shocking Blue, which topped the US charts in 1970 with Venus, Golden Earring, Q65, The Motions, Earth & Fire. Other representatives from this period: the Cats, Tee Set, Bintangs, Sandy Coast, Cuby & the Blizzards and Brainbox. George Baker acquired international fame with the songs Little Green Bag (1969), and "Una Paloma Blanca" (1975).
From the late 1960s the post war generation gained political influence. Many state subsidised rock venues opened all over the country. These clubs, like Amsterdam's Paradiso and Melkweg, were stepping stones for many alternative rock bands on their first European tour and the Dutch crowd stayed well informed about new British and American acts.
In the 70s some artists stood out. Herman Brood became the ultimate Rock 'n Roll icon. He even scored a hit in the US with Saturday Night. He became the epitome of the "rock'n'roll junkie" he sang about. As an artist he was in the media until his suicide in 2001. Other bands from the 70s: Gruppo Sportivo, Massada, Vitesse, Solution, the Nits, Focus and still Golden Earring with their greatest hit ever: 'Radar Love', also Top 10 in the US.
The late 70s and early 80s gave many one hit wonders and some bands that lasted longer. Female bands Luv' and Dolly Dots but also disco bands Spargo and Time Bandits were most successful. Together with the Golden Earring, which scored some of their biggest hits with 'Twilight zone' and 'When the lady smiles'. The Nits developed a large audience outside the Netherlands, including Finland, Switzerland, Germany, France, Belgium, Greece and Canada and in 1989 were the first Dutch band to play in the (then still) Soviet Union. Urban Dance Squad was a cross-over band, combining hip-hop with funk and rock. The band's minor American success proved to be influential. Their music style (rapcore) influenced bands like Rage Against the Machine. Van Halen was created by Edward Van Halen who was of Dutch heritage.
Dutch bands in the 00s are Intwine, Kane, The Sheer, Krezip, Di-rect, Heidevolk and Johan.
Current rock acts [1] include Anouk, Voicst, Di-Rect, Kane, Destine, De Staat, Navarone, John Coffey.
Symphonic Rock and Hard Rock[edit]
The Netherlands are also known for symphonic metal bands such as Within Temptation, The Gathering, After Forever, Delain and Epica. They became successful in the late 90s and in the beginning of the new millennium. However, bands like Supersister and Kayak (who had a hit with Ruthless Queen) were already internationally successful in the 70s.
Similar, in the last decade of the previous century a more extreme variety of metal, death metal, have had some success. Bands like Gorefest, Pestilence, Asphyx and Sinister were well-known both in and outside Europe. At the present, bands like Legion of the Damned (band), Pyaemia, Maaswater Veenlijk and Severe Torture enjoy a similar status.
In the 80s Vandenberg was internationally successful.
Ivy Green was among the first punk bands, originating from Hazerswoude.
Tedje en de Flikkers, a group of homosexuals ("flikkers" is Dutch for "faggots") from Nijmegen, was one of the most infamous punk formation of the Netherlands. They sprang from the left wing and gay movements that thrived in Nijmegen during the 70s and 80s. Their provocative performances (politically more than musically) often literally resulted in orgies of sex, drugs and noise. They existed only for three years (1977–1980).
The Ex is an Amsterdam group of musicians making something that could be called punk. De Heideroosjes is also a well-known Dutch punk rock group, singing in Dutch, English, German and dialect.
Some bands create a kind of rock music sometimes called "Boerenrock" ('farmers rock'). These bands mix rock and pop music with regional influences, sometimes sung in the regional dialect, and lyrics influenced by life in rural areas. Examples include BZB (Band Zonder Banaan) and WC Experience from Noord-Brabant, Normaal and Jovink en de Voederbietels from Gelderland, Rowwen Hèze and Neet Oét Lottum from Limburg, Mooi Wark from Drenthe and Jitiizer from Friesland.
Musically, the music played by such bands can be described as a rowdy, straightforward style of rock music, inspired by bands such as ZZ Top, Motörhead, AC/DC and CCR. At other times, influences from pop music and folk music (for instance the case with Rowwen Hèze) can be heard.
Not rarely, these bands display a lot of humorous elements in their repertoire, lyrics and live performances. An example is the repertoire of the WC Experience, which contains cover songs from bands such as Queen, Guns 'n' Roses and Madness, only the lyrics are replaced by different, rather silly lyrics in their own dialect. Also, the name of 'Band Zonder Banaan' means "Band without a Banana", and is a humorous play on the name of a famous Dutch pop-band, BZN (Band Zonder Naam, or 'Band Without a Name'). The name "Jovink en de Voederbietels" is a contraction of the names of the two founding band members (Hendrik Jan Lovink en Gijs Jolink), and "voederbietel" is a Dutch word for a food trough on a farm.
Boerenrock bands tend to perform at local festivities and concerts in big tents in rural areas, rather than in concert halls in bigger cities. An event where a lot of Boerenrock music can be heard, and a famous event amongst Boerenrock bands and fans, is the yearly Zwarte Cross ('Black Motocross') which is organized by members of 'Jovink en de Voederbietels'. The event is a mixture of several motocross related activities and a rock festival.
Indie rock[edit]
The indie music scene in the Netherlands is mainly active in the four biggest cities Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and Utrecht as well as the northern cities Groningen and Leeuwarden. Following below a brief overview of bands, organisations, venues, festivals that create and are connected to the Dutch scene.
In the 90s indie rock band Bettie Serveert was formed and independent record label Excelsior Recordings released albums of Dutch indie rock bands like Caesar, Ghost Trucker, Alamo Race Track, Johan, Spinvis, Gem, Bauer, Daryll-Ann, zZz, Cloudmachine and many others. After 2000 Voicst was formed and became popular after a beer commercial hit single for Heineken. After leaving Zoppo and forming Avec-A musician Yuri Landman received international attention as an experimental luthier for famous experimental rock bands. Dutch noise rock acts are The Ex, Gone Bald, The Moi Non Plus, Adept, Bonne Aparte, Feverdream. Post rock: We vs Death, Electropunk: Aux Raus. A cross media platform called Subbacultcha! hosts nights in venues where many international touring avant garde rockbands like Health, Enon, Miracle Fortress, Mahjongg, These Are Powers, Pre perform as well as local indie and noise rock acts like The Moi Non Plus, Bonne Aparte, Adept, Hospital Bombers, Pfaff. Subbacultcha! also publishes a musical magazine with interviews with the touring bands. In The Hague a yearly festival State-X New Forms happens in Paard van Troje.

The Washington Post's top digital exec is leaving next month. The departure of Goli Sheikholeslami, GM, Digital & VP, Digital Product Development, after eight years with WaPo print and digital, is framed as her decision in a staff memo sent out this afternoon by Katharine Weymouth, Steve Hills, and Marcus Brauchli (see below). And since this posted, I've been assured The move comes scant months after the paper finished its digital and print integration and sets off another series of changes, effective immediately, including an expanded digital role for Managing Editor Raju Narisetti.
— Ken Babby has been promoted to chief revenue officer of Washington Post (NYSE: WPO) Media/Washington Post Digital and GM, Digital, from VP, Post Media Advertising. He'll oversee all non-circulation revenue functions for Post Media and Post Digital in what seems to be a vastly expanded role from that of Sheikholeslami.
— Raju Narisetti gets an expanded digital role on the edit side. One of two managing editors, Narisetti will add responsibility for the Universal News Desk to "presentation" operations so he can "guide our digital offerings from inception to creation to implementation to operation." He will oversee all digital news content, including newsletters, alerts and emails. Narisetti's responsibilities, detailed more below, include "news-product strategy, innovation and development on the web, mobile and other digital platforms," as well as audience building and engagement. Fellow Managing Editor Liz takes over Style and the other feature sections.
Update: As Mediagazer's Megan McCarthy just reminded me, Sheikholeslami took a turn in WaPo's live chat only last week. The topic: The Future of Washington Post Digital Content. No mention that she wouldn't be part of it although she did answer a digital brain drain query: "We hate to see our good talent go, but we also understand that there will always be new challenges and opportunities that may cause us to lose some."
For the record, she stuck with WaPo's standard no-paywall mantra but left a wee bit of wiggle room with "at this point in time." Some new products, she suggested, might require subscriptions. "If they are truly differentiated products, then I don't think users would object to paying." She explained the stance a little later: "On the web, we generate revenues from selling ad impressions and therefore putting our site behind a pay wall would actually have a negative impact on online ad revenues."
Update II: I haven't talked to Sheikholeslami but am assured by someone familiar with the situation that this was indeed her decision, made at least in part because of concern over not having enough resources to do the job. That adds a little nuance to the last line of the memo: "They will have all the support they need to ensure The Post

"Sometimes I'm [going to] smack a b–ch with flowers, sometimes I'm [going to] wax a motherf–ker, but I'm still a lady," K.Michelle told her adoring audience at the Highline Ballroom in New York City on Thursday night. Those who balk at hearing profanity in small spaces clearly haven't been to a K show before. Seeing the Love And Hip Hop Atlanta star perform live is part comedy show, part therapy session, and, most importantly, a true example of a talented vocalist with personality to spare.
For over an hour K treated the crowd to cuts from her mixtapes (0 F–ks Given being the clear favorite) and her upcoming album, Rebellious Soul (out July 30), before a crowd of family, friends (including Angela Yee, Vivian Billings, and Mona Scott-Young), and friends that have become family. In addition to music, she did her best to insert deliciously entertaining anecdotes from her life ("I was eating some edibles, touching my thighs and [this song] just came out ") or cultural observations ("You have no right to judge nobody") whenever possible. Looking every bit the epitome of glamour in a bedazzled bodysuit, she was an open book throughout the night, making this feel more like an intimate gathering rather than a major label showcase. She spoke freely about her time on LHHATL, making less than subtle nods to certain cast members–ahem, Ariane–in her lyrics ("What you know about your ex-boyfriend tell you he love you but he sleeping with your friend?") and playing up the recent confrontation with Mimi by wearing a wedding veil and pretending to get married on stage during a new song ("When I Find A Man") their televised flower fight inspired. "You know me, I'm an a–hole," K laughed. "I write about everything I'm going through." And for that, we are grateful.

NEW ORLEANS - NOVEMBER 30: Wes Welker #83 of the New England Patriots looks on during warm ups against the New Orleans Saints at Louisana Superdome on November 30, 2009 in New Orleans, Louisiana. (Photo by Scott Halleran/Getty Images)
It appears that even Wes Welker thinks his days as a member of the New England Patriots are numbered. He first listed the condo in mid-summer for just under $3 million. Now that we are past the halfway point of the NFL season and Welker is working with a mere $9.5 million franchise tag, he really seems to be feeling the heat to unload this condo. Why do we say that? Well he just cut another $200,000 off of the asking price. The ol' ball and chains, Anna Burns, must really want to get out of Boston. Welker must really be a simple man, because this condo is quite the dud. Are we supposed to be impressed that it has a private rooftop deck? Yawn. You can bet you ass that Anna is going to expect more wherever Welker lands in the 2013 season. BC Real Estate Rundown On Welker's Condo: • 3 bed, 3 bath • 2,375 Sq Ft • Master suite complete with private balcony and wet bar. • 1.4 miles to Whole Foods (Walking Distance!) • 0.5 miles to Jacques Cabaret…a real classy joint!

- An Epic Way to Justify Synthesis *Spoilers*
3 years ago#1
An idea came to me while discussing this issue in a thread. It's linked to my Crucible hypothesis, which is that the Reaper cycle is a test for organics. Please understand that there is currently no evidence for this idea, and realize that Mac Walters wanted "lots of speculation from everyone." So Mac Walters, this is what happens when you want speculation from everyone.
What if there is a species somewhere in the universe that has evolved to such a technologically advanced degree that they can successfully traverse the gulf of dark space and visit multiple galaxies? Perhaps they wish to uplift the lifeforms they encounter in those galaxies? Maybe, just maybe, they initiate cycles that are intended to guide those lifeforms in a direction that they desire? Basically, this hypothetical advanced species creates Reaper cycles in every galaxy that they encounter with the intention of those galaxies overcoming the cycles. If a galaxy can break the cycle with a Crucible, that galaxy will be offered three choices that will determine its fate:
1. Destroy the Reapers, which opens up the possibility that organic life in the galaxy will be destroyed by synthetic life, and also represents a complete rejection of the advanced species that began the cycle.
2. Control the Reapers, which basically means that the organics seize a portion of the power of the advanced species and can use it however they please. This option holds incredible potential for both creation and destruction.
3. Synthesis. This is where things get very interesting. If you've seen me in other threads on this board, you might know that I loathe the Synthesis option. It makes no sense, it's unethical, and it fuses all lifeforms in the galaxy into organic-synthetic hybrids. It's completely asinine in its current context.
Yet, I may have found a solution to the insanity of Synthesis. We require something much larger than the Reapers and the Catalyst to justify such a "space magic" option. If there is a species that is roaming the universe and creating these cycles, then BioWare could probably get away with space magic. These are the true god-like beings, beings that have the power to alter matter on the scale of entire galaxies. This hypothetical species travels throughout the universe and creates Reaper cycles with the intention of uplifting entire galaxies.
These are very big ideas. The potential is incredible. Right now we don't really know what Synthesis means, but many have speculated that it possibly links all life in the galaxy together, even microbes. I propose that Synthesis basically gives the whole galaxy a greater self-awareness, and they could probably communicate with other galaxies that have chosen Synthesis. Imagine the use of "super mass relays" that propel ships across the universe! The hypothetical advanced species is flying around the universe and building a cosmic super civilization that unites large regions of the universe.
Notice that this possibility reflects a central plot element of Mass Effect - Humanity's new membership of a galactic civilization that is far older and more advanced than they could have ever prepared for. My hypothesis argues that the entire Milky Way civilization undergoes a similar transformation when Synthesis is chosen and they join the cosmic civilization. They realize that their grand existence was only a tiny piece of the cosmos, and they now have even more to learn about themselves and what their existence means.

The super advanced species is attempting to create a cosmic consciousness. They are guiding the evolution of life throughout the universe. It fits the series' themes of the evolution of life and civilizations. Life starts on a single planet, then evolves to interplanetary status, then interstellar status, then full galactic status, then intergalactic status, then potentially "full" universal status (which may be the impossible-but-noble goal that life attempts to achieve). It's a very literal take on the concept of a universe that has come to life. Matter has evolved to consciousness, and now the universe, through sentient organic and synthetic life, is going to attempt to form a true cosmic consciousness.
Big sci-fi ideas here. I could actually forgive Synthesis if this is where it's going. Too bad there is no evidence for any of this.

I like this idea quite a bit. It would be incredible. The "Creators" could have chosen to implement this cycle to achieve that genetic destiny.
One thing though, i don't think the Synthesis option turns synthetics into oranic/synthetic cross breads, just organics. I could be wrong, but I think it only applies to organics.

Here's my beef with synthesis, and it's completely unrelated to the impossible nature of the ending in the first place: Nothing is stopping us from making pure synthetics in the future. Pure synthetics that make the Reapers and Heretic geth look like Paragon Shepard. But all of a sudden "lol they're cool peace out bro"? No. The endings are broken.

I love the idea that the god-like species views galaxies like we view planets. We often think about what it would be like to encounter an alien species on a random planet and uplift them. The god-like species would view an entire galaxy in the way we view a planet. They are going to uplift the entire galaxy! It's an amazing idea.

A cross between organic and synthetic life is fundamentally superior to synthetic life. So, even if there were a synthetic uprising, the new organic/synthetic cross breads would have little trouble defeating them. Also, keep in mind that it's typically accepted that the only reasons synthetic life would turn on organics is if, A: They realized they were superior to them and therefore did not need them or B: The organics hit them first. In example A, the synthetics would never make this realization, it would be quite the opposite and they would likely view their creators as gods similar to how the Geth viewed the Reapers at first. For example B, it is unlikely the organic/synthetic crossbreads would have any reason to turn on them, but obviously that is a circumstantial argument. It can still be said that they would easily win in a war.
Now, to explain how Synthesis on such a wide scale would be possible, a thought occurred to me last night. What if the huge amount of energy that was sent out could actually alter the molecular structure of the atoms that comprise organics. This is getting pretty crazy, but stay with me. What if it was actually able to add/remove protons, neutrons and electrons to/from the atoms that made up our molecular structure. They could maintain everything that makes us organic but alter what our bodies are made of to make them synthetic. It seems crazy but the entire series is based off of a "what if?" question.

Not sure where to post this. Ive been biting my tongue for a while now, foreseeing myself getting flamed and the thread quickly closed, but I have to ask...
Is there a way we can somehow prohibit threads and posts about vendors failing to... or producing another unhappy customer? If you actually read these threads, it seems like ALL of them involve unrealistic expectations, overreactions, and a vendor trying to make things right.
I know some of you will think this takes the free speech out of the forum, or actually hurts customer service by not allowing consumers to be informed about vendor x. But I think it would be best to eliminate any ambiguity by simply prohibiting these (sometimes bias) comments out altogether.
Personally, I want to be informed of any sleazy vendor that steals or cheats. But I honestly believe we do not have any of these. If so, I missed them. And this definitely does not describe any of the vendors I dealt with or read negative posts about.
Cottage vendors provide great customer service and exceptional products...at a cost. Theyre not going to ship like Amazon. They may have a problem with emails or phones causing a lack of communication since they dont have 20 IT guys. A big event in their lives will have a much larger impact than a company with 30 other equal employees who are able to pick up the slack. Or just a simple and honest oversight.
I can go on and on. Im not sticking up for anyone specific here. I am simply stating the obvious and hoping everyone will be able to relax and be patient without the public slandering. If it has to become part of the TOS and therefore more work for the moderators (sorry!), then so be it.
Just an idea

Dr Margaret Abbott: Does my father have shingles?
Posted: July 29, 2014|
Margaret Abbott, a GP at the Windmill Practice in Sneinton and GP lead at NHS Nottingham City Clinical Commissioning Group, answers your questions on health issues
Q: I AM a full-time carer for my disabled father, who is 68. Yesterday, I noticed he has developed what appear to be bed sores along the outer right side of his lower torso and around the same side of his back. He's been feeling quite achy and the area is causing him considerable pain. On closer inspection, the sore area has a rash with fluid-filled blisters. Is it possible my father has shingles?
A: Shingles is a viral infection that develops as a result of a chickenpox infection. After you've had chickenpox, the virus that causes it lies dormant and can be reactivated years later as shingles. It is believed the reason for reactivation is due to lowered immunity to infections as we grow older.
Anyone who has had chickenpox can develop shingles. However, it is more common in older adults.

Dr Margaret Abbott: What is rosacea?
Dr Margaret Abbott: Dealing with ingrown toenails
From the symptoms, it sounds very likely that your father does have shingles. Pain or abnormal sensations in the area of skin affected are usually the first signs.
A rash resembling chickenpox then appears, though the virus tends to cause more pain and less itching than with chickenpox. The rash usually lasts around seven days but the pain may continue for longer. Another tell-tale sign is that the rash typically affects just one side of the body.
A person with shingles can pass the virus to anyone who hasn't had chickenpox before, infecting them with chickenpox (but not shingles) usually through direct contact with fluid from the blisters. There is no cure for shingles, nevertheless I would strongly recommend your father contacts his GP. Due to his age, he may be at higher risk of developing complications and his GP may prescribe antiviral medication. However, this only helps reduce the severity and duration if started within the first 72 hours of the rash appearing.
Vaccination against shingles is offered routinely for people aged 70, with a catch-up vaccine for those aged 79. Your father would therefore benefit from uptake of the vaccine when he turns 70.
We cannot respond to letters individually. If you have a health concern, see your GP. If it's urgent and you are unsure where to go call NHS 111.

Good diningPosted on 08 / 12 / 2014
Not sure about the debate if they are fully vegan or not. All their food is, not sure about the wines or juices.
We tried 3 different mains and they were all yummy. They were really like the non-vegan counterpart, so if you want some "classic" non-vegan dishes in a vegan way, this is the place to go. I personally don't always need cream substitutes, meat substitutes, or whipped cream. All in all a very nice dining experience, everyone was very pleased with their food and drinks. Also the non-vegans in our group were very impressed and enjoyed their food.
