50 year old man | Corona del Mar, CA, USA | Seeking women 34-49 within 150 miles of Santa Monica, CA
Hello, I'm new to the Newport Beach/ Corona del Mar area. I'm on the Board of an int'l charity that helps abducted trafficked children from 3rd world countries plus I am still working full time in my own business as a consultant in the legal industry which involves some international travel (great way to see the world and get paid at the same time:). I'm financially independent but enjoy working and still work full time. I also enjoy seeing my 8 nieces and nephews at family gatherings. I was educated back east and spent more than 20 years working in New York City. I would like to meet a nice responsible person who wants to be in a committed relationship, has goals in life and values her family. Some activities I enjoy are movies, traveling, reading, baseball, tennis, dining, sailing, making new friends and pursuing business goals. As far as wanting children, I would have to say that would depend on who I meet and whether my future wife wants to have children. I think this is a great way to meet people. Actually I don't think of this as internet dating and not dating at all but rather just meeting and talking with people with whom I find of interest.

Talk of Bryan Singer's BSG project resurfaces

Doesn't leave much for a 74 year-old rights holder to do. Maybe Larson can have a walk-on and pull focus?
You can put whatever kind of gloss on this you want - someone with actual modern film making experience and a track record was going to be put in charge of this thing or Universal wouldn't spend a dime on it.
I expect that Larson's involvement will be largely the same as JKR's was with regards to the last two films in the HP franchise and with regards to her involvement with the franchise as a whole. He'll get EP credit, and will more than likely be as involved with the project as his health and age will allow (I don't think he has any health problems right now that would have an adverse effect on his involvement/participation). You are making it sound like they'll cut him out of the loop entirely and rely solely on Singer while simply cutting him (Larson) a check for the rights to the BSG franchise, and neither of the two announcements we got with regards to the project show any indication(s) of this whatsoever.

How to Free Yourself From a Bad RelationshipJuly 5, 2015 at 12:00 am
A Bad Relationship Escape Plan
One of the hardest decisions you can be faced with is how to free yourself from a bad relationship. For whatever reason, the relationship just does not work and you want out. How do you tell your partner that you do not want to be with them anymore? Confrontations of any nature can be very intimidating.

Make Plans First
Before doing anything, first take a good look at your situation. Do you have your own home or do you live with your partner? If you live together, then where will you go? Or is your partner going to have to leave? What is your financial position? The bottom line is that if you live by yourself, the breakup can be much easier and quicker than if you live together. If you live together, then make plans before getting free of your bad relationship.

Your Money Horoscope: Be Extra Careful With FundsJuly 1, 2015 at 12:00 am
Money Horoscope
July, for most of the world, offers a full moon in hard-working Capricorn and a full moon in rebellious Aquarius—on the first and last day of July, respectively. To add to the uniqueness of July, Mercury will move through three signs: Gemini, Cancer and Leo. Entrepreneurs should be extra careful with funds around the weekend of the 11th and Venus square Saturn urges everyone to be prudent in financial decisions on the 13th. On July 15, the day of the new moon in Cancer, there will be many planetary shake-ups, so it's a good day to lay low. July 21 is a great day for all Sun Signs to set a course for their financial future and on the 25th Venus will retrograde, affecting personal spending. Now let's see what the July Money Horoscope has to say about your Sun Sign in particular:

Dare Not to Compare: The Facebook GameJune 30, 2015 at 12:00 am
Facebook or Bust!
Let's admit it: Many of us, myself included, constantly compare ourselves to others. We do so in order to either figure out what's supposedly normal and/or figure out what's unacceptably weird. Then we tend to shape ourselves in ways where we copy the behaviors and actions of others to feel comfortable and fit in. While it's natural to use the lives of others as templates to which we compare ourselves, most do so at a cost to their own happiness. And most of us do this too often! Many drown in despair if their life's markers aren't aligned with some borrowed idea of an idealized, normal path. But are we making decisions that are truly inspired by our own desires? Are we sure we are chasing our own self-focused dreams? What role does Facebook play in all this?

Stop the Statistics
Here are some questions you may want to stop asking while on Facebook, if any of them pop up often and bring you down: Are most of my friends my age already married? Are they already divorced? Have they already bought a home? How many still rent? Did they get to where they thought they would be by now? Did I? Can I? Will I? Where am I? And so the cycle spins around and around.

How to Craft the Perfect ApologyJune 28, 2015 at 12:00 am
The Art of the Perfect Apology
Have you ever received a bad apology? You can recognize them a mile away: They're often filled with sarcasm and victim-blaming and the apologizer somehow manages to minimize their offense and maximize your reaction. And after all is said and done, your feelings don't feel acknowledged and it feels like the apologizer got away with something. We could all get better at apologizing, so here are six tips for crafting the perfect apology.
Your detailed relationship reading is waiting! Click her to connect to your psychic.
Be Sincere
If you don't feel like you owe someone an apology, don't bother apologizing to them. Your lack of sincerity will show through and will make a tense situation even worse. However, a sincere, perfect apology goes a long way to repair a damaged relationship. You first need to decide if this relationship is worth saving and if you think it is, you should be sincere in your apology.


text: Two nine year old boys with nothing in common strike up a tender friendship following a tense first encounter in this warm-hearted drama from Israel. His parents divorced, young David has just arrived in Israel from America for a visit with his father when local Arab Kamal snatches a pouch of collectable coins right out of his hands. Abandoned by his father, Kalal lives in an Arab neighborhood of Jerusalem, and works hard to ensure that his mothers and sisters are well fed. After Kamal steals David's coins, the young victim scours the streets for the thief and runs afoul of a local Arab gang. When Kamal comes to David's rescue, the two young boys forge a powerful bond that transcends social taboos by revealing how well they can get along despite their differences. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi


text: The Super Cassette Vision wiki last edited by Jagged85 on 03/06/15 02:45PM View full history OverviewLady Cassette Vision: Inside the Box.The Super Cassette Vision is a game console released in 1984 by Japanese toy manufacturer Epoch. While the system was released in Japan as a follow-up to Epoch's previous effort, the Epoch Cassette Vision, it was also produced in Europe (primarily France) by ITMC under the name Yeno Super Cassette Vision. Aside from the Epoch Game Pocket Computer (which was also released in 1984) this would be the last system released by Epoch.In 1985, Epoch released a version of the console in Japan squarely-aimed at the female market, named the Lady Cassette Vision, which was technically the same as the Super Cassette Vision but all components being pink in colour, came with a copy of Milky Princess, and was transportable inside a carry case which contained compartments for other cartridges, cables and power packs needed to operate the system.Released at a price similar to the original (around 15,000 Yen), the Super Cassette Vision was largely unsuccessful in Japan due to the release of the Famicom the previous year, but managed to sell briefly in European markets before Nintendo's inevitable push into the territory in 1986, quickly outselling it and forcing it off the market.The Super Cassette Vision sold 300,000 units in Japan, the same as the Epoch Cassette Vision.SystemBattery-powered memory.The Super Cassette Vision features a built-in compartment on the front of the machine, used to house the controllers used in the system. The lid for this compartment also has convenient holes for the cables to run through so the lid may be closed while the system is being used. The controllers are hard-wired to the console, with a cable length of around 3 feet, featuring a similar joystick to the Epoch Cassette Vision, with two fire buttons on each shoulder of the controller. Each controller is labelled with a colored sticker (red/blue) to denote each player.The test screen.The system has the regular power buttons (On/Off Switch and Reset) and a Pause button on top of the machine, as well as a numeric keypad for other inputs. Game cartridges are brightly colored, coming in slotted cardboard boxes with manuals. The system was also the first to utilize cartridges with small battery-powered memory for saving high scores and user-made levels. These cartridges were often taller than normal, constructed to fit the extra components.The Super Cassette Vision uses the standard RF connection for video output, but notably rare for system at the time was the native RGB output, which is controlled on the back of the system with a switch denoting RGB and RF channels.When turned on without a cartridge, the Super Cassette Vision displays a 'video image test display', showing many single-colored balloons moving randomly around the screen while the background changes, an attempt to demonstrate the 128 sprite capabilities, a fact displayed on the packaging of system.Games30 games were available for the system in Japan, with 16 of those reaching the European market. Stickers on the front of the cart contained controls for the game. The banding on the packaging was generally consistent with the color of the cartridge, and colors were same across all regions. Much like the original, games for the Super Cassette Vision are also numbered in the order of their release, but the European titles followed their own numbering system.Japanese Releases (with cartridge color)European ReleasesAstro Wars (red)Astro Wars II: Battle in Galaxy (blue)Super Golf (yellow)Super MahJong (black)Super Baseball (neon green)Punch Boy (orange)Elevator Fight (white)Lupin IIINebula (black)Wheelie Racer (red)Boulder Dash (sea blue)Miner 2049er (burgundy)Super Soccer (lime green)Comic Circus (aqua)Milky Princess (pink)Pop & Chips* (sea foam green)Kung Fu Road (light purple)Star Speeder (light blue)Ton Ton Ball (light pink)Super Professor (yellow)Japanese Chess [Shogi] (golden brown)Doraemon (light blue)Super Basic* (white)Dragon Slayer* (sea green)Professional WrestlingMonster LandDragon Ball (light blue)Mappy (lime green)Sky Kid (salmon)Pole Position II (light blue)Astro WarsAstro Wars II: Battle in GalaxySuper GolfPunchy BoyElevator FightLupin IIINebulaWheelie RacerMiner 2049erBoulder DashSuper SoccerComic CircusPop & Chips*Kung Fu RoadStar SpeederTon Ton Ball* denotes powered RAM titleTechnical SpecificationsCPU: 8-bit NEC uPD7801G (4MHz)Sound Processor: uPD1771CSound: 1 channel (Tone, Noise or 1bit PCM)Display: 256 pixels x 256 pixelsVideo Processor: EPOCH TV-1Colours: 16Sprites: 128RAM: 128BVRAM: 4KB (2 x uPD4016C-2) + 2KB (EPOCH TV-1 internal)Controllers: 2 x hard-wired joysticks, built-in numeric keypadPower Supply: 8.5V DC External

Thanks for the simple example. I'm trying this out on 1.7.0_07-b11. And I am using Netbeans 7.2.1 to compile and run. I have run it inside Netbeans and from the Windows XP command prompt. It does run as suggested. However, most of the time it doesn't run completely. Generally it will print average, but the Max and particularly the Min may or may not show up. Typically I have to run this 5 or 6 times before this program will show all three results. If I substitute .run() for .start() in the main program then it always runs. But that is a cheat as I don't think .run() creates a separate thread.

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Just one week after Cover All Pennsylvanians, the centerpiece of his "Prescription for Pennsylvania," was introduced in the Legislature, Governor Edward G. Rendell today kicked off a statewide "Tour to Insure" with a town hall meeting in Pittsburgh. The five-day, nine-stop tour will highlight the need to lower health care costs and expand coverage. Allegheny County, the location of the kick-off event, has the 10th highest rate of uninsured adults in Pennsylvania.
"More than 100,000 adults in Allegheny County don't have insurance, which means they are more likely to forgo needed care, get sicker more often and for longer," said Governor Rendell. "We need to remember that these are not just statistics - we're talking about real people who work hard every day to provide for their families, but still don't have access to affordable health care. The current situation is bad for businesses and bad for workers and it needs to change."
Governor Rendell said Allegheny County was the second stop on the "Tour to Insure" because it has one of the highest rates of uninsured in the commonwealth, with nearly 16 percent of its population uninsured. The Governor said his Cover All Pennsylvanians (CAP) health insurance initiative and the rest of his Prescription for Pennsylvania will help every person in the commonwealth.
A key component of the Governor's plan is reducing costs for everyone by reducing the estimated $7.6 billion in avoidable costs in Pennsylvania's health care system. The legislature passed provisions designed to reduce the $3.5 billion spent treating avoidable hospital acquired infections, the $1.7 billion wasted because of inadequate management of chronic diseases and the $965 million spent on avoidable medical errors and readmissions to hospitals.
But more needs to be done, the Governor said.

Please help before I kill my SIL and husband. Am I being selfish?
So many previous posters have said it and I probably didnt need to say it again
But just another one to help you get over yourself...
Mom to Jonathan (6), Allison (3), and Lauren (Feb 2014)!
A lot of people change their minds about kids, especially if they meet the "right" partner. Not to mention, some people (myself included) who have fertility issues, told people we weren't sure we were going to have kids, simply because we didn't want to keep explaining why or answering questions on how it was going, or when it would happen. I'd let it go. Your life, your baby, it's not impacted by her. And as for the "1st grandchild" THAT bugs me, because you should stop & think, if she'd had her baby first, or he had another sibling that did, would you want your kid being thought of as the "3rd grandkid" or somehow not as valued or important? Playing favorites SUCKS, & it does hurt the kids when adults do it, so I would not be putting any emphasis on having the "1st." Everything happens on it's own timeframe whether it overlaps on yours or not, but if you don't participate in any competition, then there isn't one. (Although, to be on the safe side, I wouldn't share any baby names with her ahead of time).
She didn't sign a contract promising to never ever change her mind about having kids. I said I didn't want kids for years and here I am, pregnant and happy about it. It's a hard thing to picture until it happens and people can, and often do, change their minds.
It's not like she set their wedding date for the same date as you. I don't get why you're so convinced she's copying you. I don't get the impression from either of the things you said that she's copying you so much as she met someone right for her and things fell into place in a way she wasn't expecting, and you're projecting all over it because you want to be the center of attention.
This all seems very childish and I agree that you owe your husband an apology. I don't get why you would fight with him about this - what does he have to do with it?
My SIL, whom I'm not close with, always said she didn't want kids, and she is due the same week as me. I'm happy for her. It's not a competition, it's life, and anyone can change their mind about marriage and kids.

Spring into Science
Posted in Homespun Blog on Thursday, Mar 28th
When the birds start chirping, the flowers start opening up their delicate faces towards the sun, and the snow begins to melt, you know spring is coming. Another sign of spring is science activities! Science does not always have to be a somber, excruciating experience. Instead, use spring as a springboard for activities and lessons. Read More...
Making the Homeschool Day Special
Posted in Homespun Blog on Tuesday, Mar 26th
"This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."- Psalm 118:24 Pull out the balloons and the confetti! If you homeschool, then everyday can be a party--an educational party, but also a celebration of life and freedom in schooling. If you have been homeschooling for a long time, it can become tricky to make each homeschool day a fun and special moment while still teaching. The memorable day doesn't have to include going on an elaborate field trip or creating world peace. Instead, you can focus on filling each day of the school week with learning in fun, new ways.

Keeping Christ in Christian Homeschooling
Posted in Homespun Blog on Thursday, Mar 21st
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6). One of the many reasons parents choose to homeschool their children is because they can incorporate their faith into their children's daily lives and academics. Christian homeschooling allows us the freedom to "train up a child in the way he should go." It gives parents a priceless opportunity to educate their children about important biblical concepts that can be skewed in other educational systems and to pour Christ's love into their youngsters.

3 Lessons I Learned While Homeschooling
Posted in Homespun Blog on Thursday, Mar 14th
If you ask a group of homeschooled children why they are glad they are homeschooling, they will probably say that pajama parties, home cooked food, and the lack of heavy backpacks are highlights of learning at home. But you want your children to take away more from the years you taught them at home than the memory of doing science experiments in their pajamas. You may have a niggling worry in the back of your mind and wonder if your children will look back and know that homeschooling was the best decision for them. As a homeschooler who did not get to choose to learn at home, I can confidently say that I am glad my parents chose to homeschool me because it taught me three main lessons. Read More...

In this Saturday, Feb. 22, 2014 photo, a protester injured in an anti-government rally arrives for treatment at a hospital in Trat Province, 300 kilometers east of Bangkok, Thailand. (AP Photo/Daily News)
BANGKOK: A bomb wounded at least 16 people at an anti-government protest site in central Bangkok on Sunday, hospital authorities said, hours after government supporters vowed to "deal with" the protesters.
"A bomb went off in front of the Big C supermarket in Ratchaprasong. At the moment we know that at least eight people were injured but we have no idea how severe the injuries are," Thai national security chief Paradorn Pattanathabutr told Reuters.
The Erawan Medical Center, which monitors Bangkok hospitals, said at least 16 people had been injured in the blast.
Supporters of Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra promised on Sunday to get tough with anti-government protesters paralysing parts of Bangkok, raising tension in a protracted crisis.

For the past four years or so, the Oakland Raiders have been bombarded with criticism for drafting one of the biggest NFL flops of all time in JaMarcus Russell. Much of the criticism has been thrown at JaMarcus himself — and rightfully so — but the Raiders have faced their fair share of ridicule for the pick. What we tend to forget, however, is that there are a number of other teams who would have made the exact same move. As former Ravens coach Brian Billick reminded us this week, Russell was seen by many teams as a sure thing.
"We did a pretty decent job (of drafting), and obviously they continue to do a phenomenal job in Baltimore, with Ozzie Newsome and his group," Billick said on ESPN Radio according to Pro Football Talk. "JaMarcus Russell was the highest-rated player I've ever seen on any of our boards. So we all missed on JaMarcus Russell. Make no mistake."
The No. 2 overall pick in the 2007 draft was Calvin Johnson and the No. 7 pick was Adrian Peterson, so in hindsight they clearly should have been the highest-rated players. Patrick Willis was taken 11th and Darrelle Revis 14th. As we all know, that is the nature of drafting in the NFL.
The Ravens had the 29th pick in 2007 and knew they were in no position to draft Russell, but Billick's assertion is a reminder that Oakland was not the only team who was high on the former LSU star. If he was the highest-rated player Billick ever saw during his time in Baltimore, that means he was seen as more of a sure thing than guys like Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, and Eli Manning. In retrospect, the Raiders made the obvious choice and probably wish they would have had a lower pick.

A digital roadbook...?

Not sure if anyone has brought this idea up or I'm just dreaming.
Wouldn't it be great if you just turned up and downloaded the days route instructions into your display and away you go, and it was syncronized with the ICO so the next instruction flashed up as the kays tick by. ?
The DAKAR (then TSO) had a far more detailed GPS route in years past (mid 90's to early 2000's) and the "compass" arrow pretty much did the job of showing the direction of the entire course (actually, at the time, CITRÖEN and MITSUBISHI had systems that they could "download" the route info into their own nav computers - similar to that which you describe - but these were banned, as only the factory teams had access to it and it was a BIG advantage).
The GPS did
however detail things like cautions and speed zones etc. (basically it was just an electronic compass) and the result was that a lot of bike riders paid more attention to following the electronic arrow, and NOT keeping an eye on the roadbook, speeds cosequently rose, and as the pace went up... so did occurrence of big accidents happened... and so the move (back to a less is more GPS navigation) back to making the roadbook the primary source of nav info, wast taken (to the system used in place today).
What you are talking about is digitally replicating the paper instructions (incl. cautions, turns, speed control zones etc.) as an electronic "roadbook". Coupling this to the trip meter (or via the GPS... would be even more accurate/simple) is entirely possible with todays technology (GPS,SPOT,IRRITRAC etc.), but by combining (and simplifying) the need to keep updating the maps roller and "bumping" (correcting) the ICO/trip to correlate with the routechart.
The system you describe is quite possible to create... what the cost, and what effect it would have on simplifying "navigation" (ie. make it easier/raise the speed averages on the course)... well that is another question.
It sure would make it simpler to navigate... that in turn would make it "faster" as well... on the other side... with less things to keep in the top of mind (calibrating the trip, rolling on the maps) while on "the fly", then perhaps the rider can concentrate more on the riding/terrain and yhis would REDUCE accidents (even if the pace went up slightly?). Interesting option for the future maybe... any electronic geeks want to give it a shot?

The first book in the epic saga of humankind's war of transcendence.
There is a milestone in the evolution of every sentient race, a Tech Singularity Event, when the species achieves transcendence through its technological advances. Now the creatures known as humans are near this momentous turning point.
But an armed threat is approaching from deepest space, determined to prevent humankind from crossing over that boundary - by total annihilation if necessary.
To the Sh'daar, the driving technologies of transcendent change are anathema and must be obliterated from the universe - along with those who would employ them. As their great warships destroy everything in their path en route to the Sol system, the human Confederation government falls into dangerous disarray. There is but one hope, and it rests with a rogue Navy Admiral, commander of the kilometer-long star carrier America, as he leads his courageous fighters deep into enemy space towards humankind's greatest conflict - and quite possibly its last.

"Forget the Characters, Just Bring on the Action!"
This seems to be Ian Douglas' new philosophical approach to storytelling in "Earth Strike", which starts a new series in a new fictional universe.
Seriously... The battle starts with the book's opening pages and takes up literally the first half of the book. After that, a short lull as the factions regroup (and we get our only short period of character-building), and then the second battle starts, running all the way till the end.
Does this work? Well, it depends on what you're going for. If you like reading military sci fi simply for the action (or watch movies simply for the mayhem and the explosions) then you will probably dig it. He writes action pretty well. There aren't many new technological ideas involved, rather an amalgamation of different tech and themes common to sci fi. Probably the most stand-out theme is that Douglas has figured out a way to make star fighters important again, giving him the excuse to write a highly "fighter pilot-focused" book. In fact, this book probably has the most starfighter action since the "X-Wing" series, albeit with much more powerful fighters fighting at near-relativistic speeds.
On the other hand, the lack of character development means you don't really engage with any of them that much, and this of course lessens the impact of the fighting itself. If you're hoping for a really deep story, look elsewhere. Furthermore, this imbalance in the time devoted to action vs worldbuilding makes me hesitate to recommend it to military sci fi fans. There are books out there that have the total "package" wrapped much more completely, including, I daresay, the X-Wing series itself.
Overall, this is a light, action-packed story that probably will appeal most to those who are already Ian Douglas fans.
"Pretty good sci-fi!"
I would recommend this book to a friend because the story is quite interesting, keeping to a science fiction setting that is well developed.
I like the political setting just as much as the technical details which are explained in a way that the listener is able to keep up with.
NIck Sullivan is able to bring the book's characters to life by using his voice in a consistent way that allows the listener to easily keep up with the story.
This is not a book that inspires the urge to listen to the entire thing in a single sitting. Although I was interested in keeping up with the story, it was not too difficult to take a little break every once in a while. That may have something to do with the way I listen to books, though.
"I love this series"
You've got to get all of the rest of the books in the series. The military sci fi, the political environment, and the character development was plenty believable. In addition there is a lot of mystery about the protagonist alien species that keeps you guessing throughout the storyline. My only issue is that it currently stops at book 5.
"It was ok..."
Yes, my very lackluster headline reflects my experience with this book. The story is very heavy on the tech elements, and light on character, plot, and story. Douglas and Sullivan do a great job of explaining some very heady physics and military science concepts. These academic concepts seem to take priority over the narrative. It's unlikely I'll give the rest of the series space on my iPod.
"Failure To Launch"
I purchased the Audible version on sale and decided to give this series a try. Unfortunately, turns out this is the type of military sci fi that generally turns me off: uber jingoistic "superpower" Americans fighting thinly veiled Islamic aphorisms while bogging down on endless scientific drivel. I tend to prefer character and story rather than technical jargon and macho men.
Story: Well, typically I'll put a story synopsis here. But this book was so all over the place that I'm not quite sure what the story is about. There's a lot of fighting, your typical military incompetence/apathy/negligence/politics horror stories, and some aliens.
This novel pretty much failed to engage me at all levels. At one point, I started to vacuum the carpet and didn't bother to turn up the volume so I could hear the narration. When the vacuuming ended 20 minutes later, I didn't feel like I had missed anything. I realized then that I'd had enough of Earth Strike.
At the half way point, I felt confident that I could go apply for a degree in xenobiology or speculative physics. There is so much endless scientific discussion it felt almost like a case of phallus waving - macho soldiers and they have a brain too! It was boring and really difficult to skip through those sections in an audible presentation.
Added to the endless annoying science was the complete lack of characterization. No one in the book felt real and each seemed to react rather than actually think through situations with emotion or any kind of feeling. Add in a real pet peeve of mine - POV chapters from an alien - and I was left with no one to root for or want to know more about.
Finally, the whole first part of the book seemed to be about the author making observations about the current Islamic condition as it pertains specifically to the US. The whole idea that there are no Christian fundamentalists wreaking havoc (or Buddhist!)only those evil daughter killing Muslims - it got old fast.
I did manage to get through most of the book but really want that time back. But at least perhaps I've grown some hair on my chest (to my husband's dismay) thanks to all the machismo in there - and I can drop terms like "relativistic" into ordinary conversation with ease.http://www.audible.com/write-review?asin=B00657NR2K&rdpath=%2Flib#
"Extremely disappointed!"
Not enough character development. After 2.5 hrs of descriptions about the star ships, technology, etc. and no character development (or even dialog!) I still didn't know what the story was about and didn't care.
Extreme Disappointment
I really enjoyed the Star Force series and thought this would be similar. But, there was no dialog, no character development, nothing but tech, tech, tech. I don't mind getting up to speed on the technology of the time, but let's also have some people (or aliens) we get to know and care about.
"Great start"
Absolutely, this was a good story that moves pretty quickly so i think a repeat listen will be just as entertaining. This story perfectly sets up an entire series of books that could range from 4 to 15 books easily. I really like how he features two main protagonists, not focusing on the single protagonist was different and very clever as it opens up more plot lines very easily.
"Great Space Opera"
Lots of action, enigmatic aliens, giant FTL ships, Earth hanging in the balance. What's not to love. I hope the next in the series is as good.
1.5 Hours a Day in the Car Equals, Must Have Audible!
"Slow Men Working"
This book crawls at the beginning, you feel almost no attachment to the characters until mid-way through the book, and Douglas takes way too long to set up the battles.
That said, the second half starts to pick-up and my initial distaste was overridden "just enough" for me to look forward to the next book (which has already been published).
"Great book but it drags a little at the beginning"
This looks like the beginning of a great series. The physics, units, and ideas are well thought out. The main characters are intelligent and likable. This book does drag while it sets up the entire series. I listened to this book while doing a lot of driving this last weekend and even though I was tired at times it helped to keep me awake.
The description of the book is a little bit misleading and is probably better suited for the entire series even though only the rest of the books can verify that.

Frank Phillips Home to Reopen in March
The Frank Phillips Home in
The Home has been closed since the week of Thanksgiving preparing for a lengthy and challenging transition of the Home's heating system from boiler and radiators to heat pumps. The new system, when operational, will provide dependable heat and air conditioning to the Home for several decades.
Oklahoma Historical Society Building Preservation specialists along with heating, cooling and electrical engineers worked together to design a system that caused the least amount of intrusion to the historic structure. "We are pleased that visitors will see no change in the historic integrity of the beautiful rooms in this Home" said Goss. Final adjustments to the new system are being completed at this time.
The Home will be open for
tours during spring break and hopes to welcome a record
number of visitors during the spring and summer of 2015.
hours are Wednesday through Saturday from 10 to 5.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, tours run at 10, 11, 2, 3
and 4 o'clock.
Saturday, tours run at 10, 11, 1, 2, 3 and 4 o'clock.
is $5 plus tax for adults, $2 plus tax for children 4 to 11,
under 4 years of age are free.
The Home's
Gift Shop is filled with special Phillips memorabilia,
On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday mornings at 9:00, a special Director's Tour is offered. This tour lasts approximately 1 ½ hours and includes areas of the Home not available on the regular tour. Admission for this special tour is $10 plus tax for adults, $7 plus tax for children. Reservations for this tour are recommended.
The Frank Phillips Home,
located in Bartlesville, is one of 32 sites and museums owned,
staffed, and operated by the Oklahoma Historical Society. It was
made available to the public in 1973 when Elizabeth Irwin,
granddaughter of Frank and Jane Phillips, presented the home and the
Phillips' personal belongings to the state of Oklahoma as an
historical site.
After inheriting the home at the death of Jane, Elizabeth and her family lived in the home for 25 years, but had been careful to preserve the integrity of the home and its contents. Perhaps she understood from the beginning the historical significance of the Phillips legacy.
Today, the staff and volunteers at the Frank Phillips Home strive to carry out the OHS mission of preserving and perpetuating the history of Oklahoma and its people, by interpreting and disseminating knowledge of the Phillips family, as well as those persons that played a role in their lives.
In addition to the director, the Frank
Phillips Home's staff includes two part-time members of the
interpretive staff, Kim Goss, and Michelle Swaney. In addition to the regular staff, the
many docents/volunteers contribute an average of 168 hours per month
giving tours.
The Friends of Frank Phillips Home is a non-profit 501 (C)(3) organization that supports the home's projects and restoration efforts. Memberships begin at $33 per year and are tax deductible. Click here for printable membership form.
For further information about tours, joining the Friends of Frank Phillips Home, or applying for docent training, call 918-336-2491. The home is located at 1107 Cherokee Ave., Bartlesville, OK 74003.

The quickest and easiest way to generate strong key values is to visit WordPress's own secret key service in the browser at secret-key/1.1/salt, and then copy and paste the entire block of code, and then return to your configuration file and just paste it into place, like so. Once the keys are in place, save and upload the file, like so, and that's all there is to it. Of course you don't want to use the example keys shown here; the whole idea is to specify your own unique phrases to improve login security, and it's totally fine to replace these keys at any time, for any reason.
The worst that will happen is the currently logged in users will need to log in again. Trust me, the extra security is worth the minor inconvenience. In this screencast, we enabled WordPress to more securely manage the user login process. This functionality is built into WordPress by default, but you need to enable it by adding your own set of unique secret keys. In the next screencast, we further improve security by specifying a unique database prefix.

Chocolate Cakes
|All purpose flour
|1 1⁄2 Cup (24 tbs)
|Baking powder
|1 3⁄4 Teaspoon
|Fine salt
|1⁄4 Teaspoon
|2 (room temperature)
|2⁄3 Cup (10.67 tbs)
|Unsalted butter
|3⁄4 Cup (12 tbs), melted
|Pure vanilla extract
|2 Teaspoon
|1⁄2 Cup (8 tbs)
|Semisweet chocolate
|350 Gram, finely chopped
|Heavy cream
|1 Cup (16 tbs)
|1⁄4 Cup (4 tbs)
|Corn syrup
|3 Tablespoon
|Fresh raspberries/Colorful candies, or royal icing
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
In another medium bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until light and foamy, about 2 minutes. While beating, gradually pour in the butter and then the vanilla.
While mixing slowly, add half the dry ingredients, then add all the milk, and follow with the rest of the dry ingredients. Take care not to over mix the batter. Divide the batter evenly in the prepared tin.
Bake until a tester inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes. Cool cupcakes on a rack in the tin for 10 minutes, then remove. Cool on the rack completely.
To assemble the cakes: Slice a small layer off the top of the domed side of each cupcake to make a flat surface. Peel cupcake liners off and place cakes upside down on a rack.
To make the glaze: Put the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream, water and corn syrup to a simmer. Pour hot cream over the chocolate and shake bowl gently so cream settles around the chocolate. Set mixture aside soft, about 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth, taking care not to incorporate too many air bubbles.
To Decorate: While still warm and loose, pour a thin layer of glaze (about 1/4 to 1/2 cup per cake) over each cake. If desired, set aside for about one hour before serving; if pressed for time, slip the cakes into the freezer to set.
Decorate mini cakes with fresh berries or candies. If using candies to decorate, press into still slightly wet glaze before it sets

Two almost identical sepia stereographic views mounted on thick brown card. The images depict an inspection of troops at Flemington Racecourse by the Duke of Cornwall and York on 10 May 1901. The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York were in Melbourne for the opening of Federal Parliament on 9 May 1901.
The opening of the Australian Parliament was an occasion for great celebrations in Melbourne. Ten days of festivities (from 6-16 May) were planned to mark the Federation of the new nation and honour the Royal visitors, the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and York. The city was transformed with decorations - flags, bunting, colourful lights and festive arches - and a series of public events were held, including a military tattoo and several street parades. Unprecedented numbers of people arrived in Melbourne from the rest of Victoria and throughout Australia to take part in the celebrations.

Is this Rafael Palmeiro or Ned Yost?....it is difficult to tell behind the caterpillar.
Royals manager Ned Yost on their 3-14 start: the "adversity" of a 3-14 start is the "fertilizer for maturity and growth." This comes from the same guy that would tell the media that "Soup pitched well", when describing Jeff Suppan giving up 5 runs in 5 innings while managing the Milwaukee Brewers.
Ned, I think PR is beyond your scope of abilities. Combine your PR crapability and your out-of-the-gate-blazin'-hot start, and you've racked up enough street cred to land the losersbracket.com "loser of the week" award.
Congrats Ned!!

Budget a big task: Provisions designed to raise $60 million in new money
NASHVILLE - Gov. Phil Bredesen has decided to place all of his proposed revenue-producing eggs in one legislative basket, declaring that they're vital to avoid further damage to the state's shrinking budget.
The Department of Revenue's technical corrections bill, filed last week in final form after several delays, runs 67 pages. It has five provisions projected to collectively produce more than $60 million in new revenue, several sections designed to produce or save relatively small amounts of money, and a few truly technical tax code corrections.
Two other key administration bills dealing with finances were also filed in final form last week - the overall state budget bill and an omnibus statutory changes bill that revises multiple statutes to allow shifting of funds and raiding of reserves.
"All the pieces are now in play," said Rep. Harry Tindell, D-Knoxville, chairman of the House Budget Subcommittee, which must approve all three bills and any other legislation dealing with state finances.
While the budget can be arcane and thick with technicalities, it's one of the Legislature's most important duties. The state constitution requires a balanced budget every year.
Whether the General Assembly will be ready for adjournment this last week of the 2009 legislative session, as leaders hope, is an open question.
"It's going to be dicey," said Tindell.
Democratic and Republican caucuses have scheduled meetings Monday and Tuesday to go over the three key financing bills and plot strategy. That means it will probably be Wednesday before the marathon daily floor sessions needed to close out the session can begin, and some doubt that work can be completed by the weekend, even if things go smoothly.
The taxing measure is a potential sticking point.
"A lot of our members have heartburn over the technical corrections, putting everything into one big bill that we get to see a week before the session is supposed to end," said House Republican Caucus Chairman Glen Casada of College Grove.
Revenue Commissioner Reagan Farr says legislators were actually briefed earlier this year, but changes were made after tax lawyers and other parties reviewed the proposal so that the final version came later than anticipated.
House Democratic Caucus Chairman Mike Turner of Nashville has declared that at least 30 of the 50 House Republicans need to accept the "tough decisions" needed to make a balanced budget. If not, he says, Democrats will balk as well.
Casada said that most Republicans can go along with proposals that close a loophole in current tax law, but not with those that are increasing taxes.
One big-ticket item in the technical corrections bill would repeal the current tax exemption granted to commercial real estate firms operating as a family-owned, non-corporate entity, or FONCE. The FONCE measure was originally introduced as a standalone bill, projected to produce $25 million in new revenue.
But last week Finance Commissioner Dave Goetz said it would now be included in the technical corrections pile.
Many Republicans and some Democrats have opposed the FONCE measure, which Gov. Phil Bredesen tried unsuccessfully to pass as part of last year's technical corrections bill. Some of that opposition, however, has faded with the announcement that the administration will accept an amendment to leave the tax exemption in place for FONCEs with less than $500,000 in assets or income and a more technical change that will reduce taxation for some others.
Casada said he can support the provision with the exemption for smaller businesses.
Also apparently acceptable to most in both parties, at least tentatively, is a provision that calls for the state to take over collection of the gross-receipts business tax now collected by county clerks. Goetz says the state stands to gain $21 million and local governments $25 million under the move.
The new revenue will result from increased efficiency with a central operation and from better taxpayer compliance in making the payments, Goetz says. The state has a database of information from sales tax collections that can show quickly whether the taxpaying business is correctly stating taxes due, he said.
A third provision where agreement seems likely deals with companies signing computer software warranty and maintenance agreements outside the state, avoiding state taxes under current law. By changing that law and taxing such agreements, the provision is projected to add $9 million to state coffers.
Casada, however, said Republicans will oppose two other moneymaking provisions in the technical corrections bill:
n An increase in the tax paid by businesses on long-distance phone calls from 7.25 percent to 9.25 percent, the same rate residential phone customers already pay. That is projected to raise $6 million.
n Applying sales taxes to cable TV boxes, which are now untaxed, to generate $2 million.
There is also dispute about some of the smaller money-producing items. Among them:
n A $2,500-per-player tax on the National Basketball Association and the National Hockey League for up to three games per year in Tennessee. The tax, which would go to Memphis in the case of the NBA and to Nashville in the case of the NHL, is similar to taxes in other states paid by Memphis Grizzlies or Nashville Predators players when they play away from home, officials say.
n An increase from $5 to $5.50 in the fee charged for filing a vehicle lien registration with the Division of Motor Vehicles.

Nervous but willing to try it out.
I am an outgoing and down-to-earth woman who likes to explore and find the beauty in everyday things. I would like to meet someone who has a sense humor, confident without being arrogant, and can show me he is a gentleman. I have been focusing on becoming a better person everyday, including finding balance and becoming healthy (mind, body, and soul). I am funny and quirky, and like not having drama but do enjoy adventure. I am pretty direct and believe in communicating thoughts, wants and feelings (imagine that). I enjoy the work I do, although it can be very challenging. Through my work I've been able to meet some wonderful people and it's given me the opportunity to find qualities I appreciate and try to look for in others. I am not sure what my type is but I know that he has to have a job, goals and ambition. One thing I can say for sure is I don't go for the pushy type but being forward is okay. Also, I do like someone who can be direct without coming off as a bad guy. Oh... did I mention I am a little traditional??? I was brought up with a good morals and values and therefore a believer of the golden rule and karma. I like following the rules, yes I am a goody two shoes, most of the time;). I am pretty put together and don't have any skeletons in the closet other than too many shoes, which of course doesn't exist. I have a job that I enjoy but it is demanding at times so I like to have downtime to relax. I like to try new activities but no sky diving, that is a little much at the moment. I am looking for a relationship and love, those interested in hookups need not apply. TO BE CONTINUED...

back-siphoning of agricultural chemicals into wells, and injection wells. Ground water can also become contaminated by substances released at or near the soil surface in a more dispersed manner including pesticides, fertilizers, septic tank leachate, and contamination from other nonpoint sources.
Nitrates from fertilizers and animal wastes are the most pervasive type of ground water contamination. An estimated 20.5 million tons of fertilizers were applied to crops during 1988-1989 (USDA 1989). Between 1960 and 1985, agricultural use of nitrogen quadrupled, to 12 million tons (USDA 1987). Nitrate levels in ground water have increased concurrently with these rises in fertilizer application.
Pesticides also contribute significantly to ground water pollution. Each year about 661 million pounds of active pesticide ingredients are used in agriculture (OTA 1990, USEPA 1987). The first reported instances of ground water contamination by pesticides occurred in 1979 when dibromochloropropane (DBCP) was detected in California and aldicarb in New York. Subsequently, DBCP was detected in ground water in four additional states. By 1983, ethylene dibromide (EDB) had been found in wells in 16 counties of California, Florida, Georgia, and Hawaii (USEPA 1987). These findings prompted the suspension of EDB use in the United States. By 1988, pesticides had been detected in the ground water of more than 26 states (USEPA 1988). The largest monitoring study conducted in the United States, EPA's National Pesticide Survey (USEPA 1990), concluded that about 10.4 percent of wells in community water systems and 4.2 percent of rural domestic well water had detectable residues of one or more pesticides; fewer than 1 percent of all wells, however, were estimated to contain at least one pesticide in excess of established levels of health concern.
Once contaminated, ground water is very expensive to clean up; in many cases, cleanup may not be possible within a reasonable time (Mackay and Cherry 1989, Haley et al. 1991). In addition, ground water is the only source of drinking water for many rural areas (USGS 1990). The cost of replacing contaminated sources with bottled water or other alternatives is high relative to that of existing ground water resources (Abdalla 1990).
The seriousness and intractability of the problem of contaminated ground water has led resource managers to pursue a policy of prevention. Boxes 1.1 and 1.2 provide background information on the ground water protection programs of two federal agencies—the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The factors that affect the ability of contaminants introduced at the land surface to reach ground water vary from place to place. Many extreme
