Priologic will release the first-ever open source WebRTC plugin for IE prior to WebRTC IV in Atlanta on June 17-19, 2014. This new IE plugin will be released under a BSD2 license to allow any WebRTC team to use it and improve on itwithin their commercial products or as open source.
Priologic is the creator of EasyRTC, one of the world's most the popular and widely-used toolkits for WebRTC. EasyRTC has regularly won industry awards and recognition as the toolkit continuously expands and improves.
Priologic's CEO, Doug Pelton, acknowledges that other teams have done great work enabling WebRTC in the IE browser and have provided it for free, but to date none have been open sourced. "EasyRTC is open source so it makes sense that we have an open source WebRTC plugin for IE," says Pelton. "Of course, the best-case scenario would be if Microsoft put full WebRTC support into Internet Explorer."
"Priologic's team has also been busy refining Priologic's EasyRTC and Tawk.com offerings, and making them more accessible across platforms. At WebRTC IV, we'll also be showing our EasyRTC iOS Native Client, EasyRTC Android Native Client, EasyRTC C++ native client and a new EasyRTC 3rd party adapter," says Pelton.
The EasyRTC 3rd Party Adaptor is designed to allow Media Servers and WebRTC Gateways access to and from EasyRTC. The Adaptor makes many of the features that are difficult to build in pure WebRTC more accessible, such as recording, archiving and playback of sessions and access to the broader public telephone network.
"The EasyRTC team has been working very hard over the past six months, and we're really looking forward to showing our wares and meeting everyone at WebRTC IV in Atlanta next week," says Pelton.
About Priologic (http://priologic.com)
As a recognized leader in the WebRTC community, Priologic's mission is to normalize and hide frequent WebRTC API changes for developers.
Priologic's EasyRTC (http://easyrtc.com/) is the easiest way to enable browser-to-browser voice and video chat without ever needing to install plugins or worry about security or privacy issues. Right now, EasyRTC can be used on over a billion devices worldwide, a number that is expected to grow dramatically over the next few years as other browsers support WebRTC, and WebRTC mobile devices proliferate.
EasyRTC uses the emerging Web-Based Real-Time Communications (WebRTC) framework to turn popular web browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera into telephony engines so that devices can connect via IM, video, or voice chat.
The company works constantly to update EasyRTC, a full-stack open source toolkit suitable for building highly secure enterprise WebRTC applications. EasyRTC is a bundle of web applications, code snippets, client libraries and server components, written and documented by Priologic to work right out of box.

Marking Gauge #4: cut the fence to shape
The fence is cut to shape and sanded with grit 60. Further sanding will bring the brass screws flush with the brass plate. Next, will cut the brass shoes and cut slit in the rod. The Honduran rosewood is really tough as far as sanding goes, even with low grits.

definitly a good way to start out. the left part fades to white for some reason. maybe some pure whites and some super darks.

That white area at the left was actually a problem in scanning. On the original it's black like the rest of the bg. I just never went in and fixed it in PS.
Thanks for the reply.

Your vote is important! Let's give new people a chance to go to Juneau. These three are hard-working folks who will bring stability to our state government at a time when the incumbents have spent our fortune unwisely. Please vote for Shauna Thornton, House District 30, Rocky Knudsen, House District 29, and Eric Treider, Senate O.
Remember to vote on Tuesday, Nov. 4th, or vote early at either the Kenai City office or at the Borough Building in Soldotna.
A positive future depends on all of us.
What does the phrase, "buying the election" mean? It seems kind of hyperbolic. I mean, we each have a mind, right? We each have a vote. Nobody can buy that. But I'm finally understanding it, I think. The other day I was singing to my eleven-month-old granddaughter one of our favorites, "Zip-a-dee-doo-dah!" I thought she might enjoy hearing the original. I looked it up on my computer to play it for her, and before it would play, I had to listen to vitriol from a snotty, self-important actor payed to smear politicians on the "other side," and anyone who might agree with them.
During the debate last Sunday night between Governor Parnell and Bill Walker, I believe Mr. Walker showed himself to be a gentleman and true Statesman, not a politician. He possesses a high level of personal integrity, high energy and great workable ideas for the betterment of the state of Alaska and its people. He is not interested in his own private agenda but rather what is best for the greatest good.
Like many Alaskans, I have been waiting for Governor Sean Parnell to resign. He is involved in a 4-year cover-up of Alaska National Guard sexual abuse crimes. What has happened here is a very serious matter, a cover-up of multiple, perhaps ongoing crimes. All over America, Presidents of Universities, Athletic directors, and famous coaches have resigned because of their involvement in the cover up of sexual abuse crimes. Why hasn't Governor Parnell resigned? How many women could have been saved from rape if Parnell had listened to the National Guard Chaplains who asked him for action.
Once again today my mailbox was stuffed with attack ads and mudslinging. In just a week one of these candidates will be elected to office. He will be followed by the mistrust that has been developed during the campaign. Negative campaigning is not good for Alaska or the United States. This political division is not healthy for our country. We are one nation and we the people should work with elected officials who will do what is right for the country.
Would anyone object if the Do Not Call list were amended to include sales pitches from political parties and political election surveys? The amount of phone calls from these entities this year has been overwhelming.
Alaskans can all agree that privacy is our right. We don't like people telling us how to live and we don't like the government nosing into our private lives.
The Kenai Peninsula Hockey Association recently hosted the Peninsula Power Play Hockey Tournament October 24-26. Nine teams from across the state participated. We would like to thank the following local businesses for their generous donations: Espresso Barn, Peterkin Distributors, McDonalds, Dairy Queen, Kenai River Pizza, Safeway Starbucks, Odum, Jumpin' Junction and Beemuns.
I was astounded by the State of Alaska's "Official Election Pamphlet" that not only left out gubernatorial candidate Bill Walker but included a full page negative advertisement against Senator Mark Begich by the Alaskan Republican Party. Is this a reflection of our state administration's incompetence or corruption? Either explanation presents a very good reason to vote against Governor Parnell and for candidate Walker.
Once again, as so often in the past, Alaska's Congressman Don Young has shown himself to be arrogant, uninformed on the subject about which he's speaking, narrow-minded, offensive, bombastic ... the list goes on and on. His opponent in this election, Forrest Dunbar, is well educated (Harvard), polite, soft spoken, intelligent, and has grown up in Alaska bush communities (Eagle and Cordova).

COMT encodes for an enzyme that breaks down dopamine and other neurotransmitters. Drugs known as COMT inhibitors are used to treat Parkinson's and other disorders.
"This is not something that's going to be a cure right now," said Gerald Frye, a neuropharmacology and neurotoxicology professor at the Texas A&M Health Science Center College of Medicine. "It's better understanding how the brain works and how a polymorphism [like the ones studied here] could make a difference in who you are as far as how you're brain works."
The dynamics identified by the study are just one part of a larger whole, experts said.
"They're pulling out one part of the brain-mind interface," Frye explained. "Brain programs like this are like players in the orchestra. Each one has a part to play. This may mean that the Val/Val may be a more strident player in the symphony, [but] this is just one player out of the symphony."

What would happen to the cell and body function if there were Damage to the Ribosomes?
asked May 10 '12 at 21:59
true he is
Yes, well the body isn't taken to important meetings. It is in actual fact in the UCL (University College London) where he is sitting in a glass-fronted cabinet. Bentham requested in his Will that his body should be preserved and stored in a wooden cabinet and called this his "Auto-Icon". Originally kept by his disciple Dr. Southwood Smith, UCL acquired his body in 1850 and have kept it on public display ever since.
Microdermabrasion won't help with acne scars. Save your money. It's like a expensive exfoliator. Try looking around for a school, where I used to live there was this massage school, and they also did I guess cosmetology or esthetics training. But they would do microdermabrasion on you for 20.00. Much cheaper than a docs office.
As for the laser, I'm not sure if that would help. I've got the same problem, and done quite a bit of reading, and it seems that lasers really won't help much since ice pick scars are so deep. I've personally given myself a couple rounds of a 25% TCA peel, which is technically still a light to medium depth peel, and helped a tiny little bit, but not enough. If you're still having acne outbreaks, I would suggest checking into some kind of chemical peels, like a glycolic or light to medium TCA peel regimen to get on. Get the acne under control first, or it's just a waste of money getting the procedures done. Otherwise, the acne still comes back, and so will the scars. Also, I buy a strong salicylic acid solution, 10% and use that as a spot treatment. The stuff you buy at the store is usually only around 1%, so it's much stronger and works better. You can buy those online, and if you want I can send you the links for those where I buy mine. I don't make any money off them or anything, not spamming lol. Just stumbled across them one day doing some research. Please see more in here about fraxel virginia.

The Warren Commission was the fifth government investigation of the Kennedy assassination. Due to factors described below, some feel it should not even be called an investigation, as it primarily involved analysis of evidence already gathered by others. The first three investigations were the initial investigation by the Dallas Police, the Secret Service investigation of security issues and agent information, the investigation by the State of Texas and its Attorney General Waggoner Carr, and the follow-up investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (which produced a five-volume report). Thus, the Commission began with at least two investigations having already declared Oswald's guilt. The Commission piously denied acting "as a prosecutor determined to prove a case, but as a fact-finding agency committed to the ascertainment of the truth." This was contradicted by their initial investigative outline, one portion of which was devoted to the biography of the assassin. They began with that conclusion. As presidential assassination wasn't then a federal offense, and the assassination was a state crime, there was considerable doubt that the FBI or the Commission had any authority to investigate the matter in the first place. Both received their orders from President Johnson, who ordered Hoover to get involved, and patterned the Commission after the Roberts Commission that investigated Pearl Harbor.
The Commission was intended as a rubber stamp, designed to review and endorse the findings of the FBI investigation, as member Sen. Richard Russell quickly recognized and criticized. He received little support from his colleagues.
Time Frame:
Appointing the Commission, President Lyndon Johnson expected that its work would be done before the 1964 summer Democratic Convention. By early Spring, it became apparent that the deadline wouldn't be met, and finally Johnson settled for completing the investigation prior to the November election. By July, the chief counsel was telling his staff they were supposed to be closing doors, not opening them. This meant that even the few leads that were developed could often not be adequately pursued.
Investigative Resources:
Aside from a general counsel (J. Lee Rankin) and several teams of senior and junior counsels (totaling 14 attorneys), the Commission was dependent entirely on the information gathered by other agencies, primarily the FBI, secondarily the Secret Service, with some information from others, including the State Department, etc., and (belatedly) the CIA. As Congress determined in the mid-Seventies, these agencies systematically withheld relevant information from the Commission (including an Army intelligence file on Oswald, which was later "routinely destroyed" before the HSCA asked for it; the Secret Service did the same with some files requested under the JFK Records Act). The work of the staff attorneys was primarily to "analyze and summarize" what was provided. They could also "recommend additional investigation," but there was no guarantee the recommendations would be fully pursued. When recommendations were accepted, the "further investigation" consisted almost exclusively of referring the matter back to the FBI or other agency that had handled the matter inadequately in the first place, as the Commission felt it was "unnecessary" to employ its own investigators. Further criticism of the investigation came from the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1979, though its own unpublished records were sealed for 50 years. Most witnesses were interviewed by the FBI or Secret Service (or both), and the reports (except those withheld by J. Edgar Hoover) forwarded to the Commission. Some of those were then interviewed via depositions taken by the Commission staff attorneys. A relative few were interviewed by varying numbers of members of the Commission at its often sparsely-attended sessions. Very few were interviewed first by anyone from the Commission.
Even then, interviews were oddly handled. When Jack Ruby was interviewed, the staff attorneys in charge of gathering information about Ruby and his background weren't invited.
The Commission relied almost entirely on the evidence gathered by others. The witnesses it interviewed had mostly been previously interviewed by the FBI or Secret Service. Other evidence was also filtered before reaching the Commission~instead of studying the autopsy photos, the Commission chose instead to study only the written autopsy report and crude, inaccurate medical drawings based not on the photos, but on verbal descriptions by the autopsy doctors. When attorney Mark Lane tried to bring other witnesses and evidence to the Commission's attention, he was treated as a hostile witness, and found himself under heavy surveillance by the FBI. The only reason some of his early lectures survive is because the FBI taped them.
"Unanimity" of the Conclusions:
The Forward to the Report states: "Each member of the Commission has given careful consideration to the entire report and concurs in its findings and conclusions." This was, in fact, false. Senators Richard Russell and John Sherman Cooper and Rep. Hale Boggs all expressed doubts about certain of the conclusion; language had to be changed to get them to reluctantly sign the Report; and efforts to include minority opinions on certain points in the Report were stymied.
Publication of the Report:
Although the Pentagon withheld information from the Commission, it loaned them an historian to help write the Report. The Warren Report was the first "instant book," a practice which became much more common in later years. Advance arrangements were made with Bantam Books for a paperback edition to flood the nation's bookstores as soon as the Report was officially released in late September, 1964. Shortly, editions were also published by the Government Printing Office, the Associated Press, Doubleday and others. These often included glowing introductions by people like Louis Nizer, who later admitted he had written his praise for the Report without having read it. CBS promoted the report with a television special that included many of the witnesses who had testified before the Commission. LIFE published a special issue with an article by Commission member Gerald Ford. The New York Times co-sponsored Bantam's "instant book," and promptly published the complete summary of the report, as well as large portions of the rest of the report.
Media Response:
The major media embraced the Report's conclusions, exaggerated the scope and thoroughness of the investigation, and painted conspiracy talk as an alien phenomenon originating in Europe~and the Soviet Bloc.
Publication of the Evidence:
Late in 1964, the Government Printing Office published a set of 26 volumes of evidence. This included 15 volumes of testimony, and 11 volumes of exhibits, which consisted of written reports, documents and photographs. Only 5000 copies were printed, and there was no second printing. Selections from the volumes were published in a Bantam hardcover and paperback volume entitled "The Witnesses," also co-sponsored (and edited) by the New York Times. This volume was not as widely read as the Report, and few who read it bothered to look further into the 26 volumes to see whether the editing was objective.
Unpublication of the Evidence:
A massive number of "Commission Documents" were not included in the volumes, and not made available for study. They were originally said to be sealed until 2039, but most remained unclassified. A few began to be released after a local mayor protested in person to Lyndon Johnson. A scattering of others came out due to the 1967 Freedom of Information Act, many batches only becoming available after often-lengthy court battles. A somewhat larger number were released through the amended 1974 FOIA, but it wasn't until the 1990s and the JFK Records Act that the last of the Commission files were opened. Also opened were evidence never seen by the Commission, withheld by the Dallas Police, the FBI, the Secret Service, the CIA, and other agencies.
Seeds of Destruction:
Those few who did delve into the 26 volumes found much evidence that raised serious doubts about the Commission's conclusions, and about the quality of its investigation. A network of ordinary citizens developed around the country, including what was called "The Housewives' Underground," including people like Shirley Martin, Maggie Fields, Sylvia Meagher, Lillian Castellano and Mary Ferrell. Some became affiliated with Mark Lane's Citizens' Commission of Inquiry (CCI). Articles critical of the Report began appearing in various intellectual journals. Another citizen, former Congressional investigator Harold Weisberg, published his initial findings in 1965, in a book called Whitewash. Another volume, Whitewash II, followed the next year, and both were then published as Dell paperbacks. Mark Lane published Rush to Judgment, and members of Congress began calling for a reinvestigation. Even LIFE magazine published a November cover story calling the Warren Report's conclusions "A Matter of Reasonable Doubt," and endorsing calls for a new investigation. Sylvia Meagher also focused on the 26 volumes, creating a Subject Index to them, and then a study of the evidence called Accessories After the Fact.
Today, the Warren Commission is used most often as an example of how not to conduct the investigation of a presidential assassination. The most recent government investigation of the case, that of the House Select Committee on Assassinations in the late 1970s, concluded that there had indeed been a conspiracy, of which the Warren Commission said it could find "no evidence." According to public opinion polls, between 80% and 90% of the American public believe there was a conspiracy in the assassination. For the most part, academia and the major media continue to accept the conclusions of the Warren Commission, and tend to act as though the HSCA investigation never occurred. This is not based on study of the case, as both academics and journalists have tended to view the case as "a swamp" in which they have no desire to become mired, and exploration of the subject is discouraged by colleagues and editors. As a substitute for doing their own research, they have embraced Warren Commission defender Gerald Posner as their surrogate and resident expert on the case, though he made one of the briefer studies of it, and wrote one of the sloppier books on the subject (more serious defenders of the Commission have included Albert Newman, Jean Davison and Jim Moore). The academic experts most often consulted on the subject by the media (Stephen Ambrose, Doris Kearns Goodwin, etc.) have studied the case even less. Those who have studied it (like David Wrone, John Newman or Michael Kurtz) aren't called upon for commentary. Signs of hope include newer history textbooks that take a more neutral position on the case, abandoning the flat declaration that Oswald did it, acting alone, and a few historians (like Michael Beschloss and Donald Gibson) who are beginning to look more closely at how the Commission was created and performed. Initially a widely heralded achievement, the Warren Report has become a sacred cow with few worshippers.

The last time these two got together in Denver it was the Raiders who rolled to a stunning 59-14 win as seven point underdogs. Both of these teams have new head coaches this season. John Fox has taken over in Denver and the Broncos are looking to rebuild quickly. Hue Jackson will look to build on the improvements that Tom Cable made in the last couple years. Which of these AFC West teams will get off to a 1-0 start on Monday?
The Oakland Raiders lost their best player on both sides of the football during the offseason. Zach Miller was the team's go to pass receiver at the tight end spot, but he is now with the Seahawks. Nnamdi Asomugha is probably the best cover corner in the NFL, but he is now in Philadelphia.
How did the Raiders get to 8-8 last year? A running game that ranked second in the NFL drove them to an improved record. Darren McFadden was finally healthy, and he showed the amazing talent he has. If McFadden and Michael Bush both stay healthy, I expect them to have another good year running the football. Jason Campbell is the undisputed starter at quarterback, but he won't have many weapons to throw it to this season. In addition, the offensive line has some holes that will be difficult to fill.
The Raiders defensive line should be among the best in the NFL, but they'll need to get after the quarterback to protect an inexperienced secondary. It's simply not possible to lose a guy like Asomugha and not see the pass defense drop off some. The defense will likely be a little worse than last season.
Most thought Tim Tebow would be the starter for the Broncos as we start up this season, but it will be Kyle Orton under center once again. The Broncos coaches seem to think that Tebow just wasn't ready to start on a weekly basis. Orton and the passing offense did well a year ago, but it was the rushing attack that must improve. Denver ranked 26th in the NFL in rushing yards per game with just 96.5 last season.
John Fox brings a new attitude to this team, and he hopes that will help them get the ship turned around right away. Fox expects this team to be able to run the football and play solid defense. Von Miller was the team's top draft pick, and he should help out significantly in his rookie season. Elvis Dumervil missed all of last season with an injury, and the team will be extremely glad to have him back. Champ Bailey isn't quite the corner he once was, but he is still very good. The safeties could be a bit of a problem since Brian Dawkins has lost several steps. This is a defense that has talent, but they also have some holes.
Both of the games these teams played last year went well over the posted total. I know Fox will slow the Broncos team down a bit, but I don't see either defense being that good. The over is 16-5 in the Broncos last 21. The over is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings between these two. I wouldn't be surprised if the Raiders won this game straight up, but my favorite play here is on the over.

This place fills a gap in the glaciers' evening dining scene with its strong emphasis on local foods. The whitebait fritters are a mainstay, and the venison is always an attraction. The lighter main dishes on the menu will appeal to those who don't have an ice climber's appetite. The enticing range of whiskeys and cocktails should provide something for everyone.

Great product!I have this product in the yellow color, which I use to hide the dark circles below my eyes. Never have I used a concealer that hid my dark circles so well.

good to the last drop...I love this concealer and have been using it for about 4 years now.

It's definitely a great value, and looks incredibly natural, even when not following it up with liquid or powder foundation (which I seldom do). It stays on a majority of the day and looks and feels great...what more could you ask for in a concealer? — 7 years agoEmerlyJoe | 1 reviews

One problem I use to have was the fact that my skin is so dry it would cover my blemish but make the area look even more dry. So...I apply my foundation first and then apply the concealer. Voila!

My Reasons for Reporting This

For some reason CNN talk show host Piers Morgan decided to test his athletic skills in cricket. It didn't go well. Morgan suffered a cracked wrist and multiple bruises after being hit numerous times by Australian cricketer, Brett Lee.
Those balls were being thrown around 90 mph.
I give Morgan credit for standing in there. I would've bolted after getting hit the first time…still won't make me watch his show.

CONYERS - The competition only gets better as Heritage takes on Dalton today in the second round of the Class AAAA baseball playoffs.Dalton, the No. 2 seed from 7-AAAA, knocked off Alexander in its first round matchup, while the Patriots dismissed North Springs. Now the stage is set for another best-of-three series as the Catamounts pay a visit to Danny Blue Field. Game 1 of the doubleheader is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Heritage coach Casey Teal said he has a good deal of respect for Dalton's team, and it starts with head coach Bob Brotherton. "They've got a very good head coach. He was a college coach for many years," Teal said. "He's very sound and disciplined, probably the best coach in the entire region. He's good." Teal said he's also very impressed with Dalton's battery. "They're led by Mackie Sheets, he's their ace, and Garren Palmer, their catcher," Teal said. "Those guys are two of their top hitters, too. "They have a pretty deep pitching staff. Their No. 2 pitcher is pretty good and they have three or four guys behind him. They are pretty young, too. They've only got a few seniors that play, but they make you pay for the mistakes you make. They open it up offensively, and when the opportunity presents itself, they'll bunt or use the hit-and-run. They'll do those type of things, but they also have power in the lineup with Sheets and Palmer." Teal said the Catamounts also have a solid leadoff hitter in Stryker Brown. "Their leadoff man, he's the one that makes them go. He's a lefthanded hitter, he gets on base and he can hit a little bit," Teal said. "He handles the bat extremely well and he sets it up for the rest of the lineup." Teal's main focus now is to keep his team even keeled and ready for the first game of today's doubleheader. "For us, we've just got to do the same thing that we've done all year," he said. "We don't do anything differently to prepare for a team. As long as we're prepared in every aspect of the game, whether that be defending small ball or the hit-and-run, we've done that all year, so it's nothing new to our kids. They're ready for it and it's not going to catch them by surprise. "Dalton is going to be more hungry than a lot of the teams we've faced. It's been a long time, maybe six years, since they hosted a playoff series. They hosted one in the first round and they've got a lot of momentum coming into this game." Brandon Evans can be reached at email@example.com.

Hollywood History: Get a Piece of the Rock
BY Christopher Harrity
June 22 2012 5:41 PM ET
An Elizabeth Taylor engraved frame gifted to Rock Hudson
Pewter picture frame signed by Cartier featuring a heart shaped cutout with custom engraved inscription reading, "Private Lives 1983 / Darling Rock & Tom / Love Elizabeth." Taylor reportedly stayed with Rock Hudson in his New York apartment while rehearsing for the Broadway opening of Private Lives. The two had been friends since the filming of Giant in 1956, and Hudson's battle with AIDS was one of the factors that led to Taylor's personal involvement in fighting the disease.

The 2015 beer list can be downloaded here. Tickets are now available for the beer and chocolate tasting on Saturday 11 July. Six different beers from around the country will be paired with six different chocolates by Beer Writer and Beer Judge, Christine Cryne. To book please click here.
Walpole Park, Mattock Lane, W5 5BG.
The Festival runs from 8-11 July 2015. We open at noon and stop serving at 10.30pm (6pm Saturday)
The prices are £4 for non-members and £2 for CAMRA members
To volunteer please click here. Non-CAMRA members welcome.
Any general enquiries about the festival should be sent to email@example.com. Please note we do not need any more caterers.
There are no advance tickets on sale - please pay at the door.
We operate cash bars. Payment by debit and credit card is only possible for books and clothing etc.
Sorry but we do not have the facilities to operate credit/debit card 'tabs' for drinks.
If you have change, please use it whenever you can.
We take £50 notes on the door and will change them at the CAMRA products stand but please do not use them at the bars.
Our staff have the same legal rights and obligations as pub licensees and can refuse admittance. For security reasons a bag check may be required. We also require proof of age for those under 25. Anyone who is behaving in a way which is likely to cause a danger to others will be removed from the site.
Children are allowed in free until 8pm. For safety reasons we request that all children leave the site by this time. Baby changing facilities in the disabled toilet.
We do allow dogs but not in the marquees. If they become aggresive you will be asked to take them from the festival site.
This is prohibited by law anywhere inside the marquees. When smoking in the park please use the ashtrays provided.
We have to operate to a strict limit on numbers in the festival.
If we have had to introduce a 'one out, one in' routine and you have had to queue for any time, we hope that you will accordingly appreciate why that was.
Although they are unpaid volunteers, a number of our stewards are fully SIA trained and accredited so please take notice of any announcements or requests from our stewards. Their only aim is to keep you safe.
We attempt to provide sufficient seating but there will never be enough for everybody. If dry you may wish to sit on the grass, otherwise feel free to bring a blanket.
Please do offer seats to those less able to stand and please do not reserve seats for those who have not arrived.
Wednesday 7.30pm Elaine Samuels
Thursday 7.30pm Westbound Piccadilly
Friday 7.30pm The Undercovers
Pubs are disappearing at an alarming rate. Whilst London has been lucky in recent years with the growth of small (and not so small) breweries, with over fifty now producing all types of beer, there are now fewer places to drink them in!
If you have an interest in real ale and the pubs that serve it, why not join CAMRA and be one of over 172,000 members.
CAMRA is a not-for-profit body that is run locally and nationally by elected, unpaid volunteers and is completely independent of any commercial interest.
While we need activists, our strength is also in our numbers and, if you drink real ale in a pub, that in itself is positive campaigning.
For more information please come and see us at the Membership Stand.
The lists of beers, cider producers, wines and foreign beers is now available on the Beers & Ciders page.
CAMRA's LocAle campaign is very important to us but both the Pig's Ear Festival last December and the recently held London Drinker Festival heavily feature London beers. We will feature several local West London breweries but we tend to spread our net more widely to bring you what we hope is the best in British real ale.
All our beer is purchased from the breweries or beer distribution companies on normal commercial terms.
Ealing Beer Festival follows CAMRA guidelines in charging what is reasonable for the area without seriously undercutting local pubs or excessive overcharging.
We will have a range of ciders and perries which have been carefully selected from small and medium producers.
In line with CAMRA policy, our beers are served in oversized, lined glasses - both pint and half pint glasses are available. All beer glasses have a 1/3 pint line and are £3 from the glasses stand.
As ever, we had a good range of imported beers selected by Bar Manager Adam Miller from his wide personal knowledge.
One again we will have English wines made from grapes and other fruits. A selection of meads will also be available.
Free tap water will be available behind the bars. Other soft drinks can be purchased from the soft drinks bar.
Crusty Pie - pies and mushy peas
Real Meat & Sausage - incl. burgers & chips
Powar Curry House - selection of curries
Hog Roast
Cheddar Deli - dairy, meat and delicatessen foods
Pipers Crisps + Merry Berry Chocolate
Sorry we will not be showing any sporting event.
If you enjoy Ealing Beer Festival, how about visiting CAMRA's other beer festivals in and around London:
- July: Ealing
- August: Great British Beer Festival at Olympia
- September: Ascot
- October: Wallington; Twickenham
- November: Watford; Heathrow
- December: Pig's Ear (East London)
- March: London Drinker Beer Festival
- April: Bexley;Kidbrooke
- May: Kingston;
- June: Thurrock
This event is organised and staffed entirely by volunteers, not just from West Middlesex Branch but also most other London branches of CAMRA and throughout the country.
No volunteer gets paid and all funds generated are passed to CAMRA centrally to be used for campaigning.
Thanks are due to all of those who have put in a lot of hard work and have given up many hours of their free time.
A number of our volunteers have been treated for cancer during the past year. This year we are supporting Ealing Cancer Research UK.
The West Middlesex Branch of CAMRA would like to thank our sponsors, advertisers & Ealing Council for their support for the Ealing Beer Festival. We would also like to thank Mike Flynn and CAMRA South West London for the design of this website.

The end of daylight savings time happens this week. It is time to 'fall back' one hour. Make sure you set your clocks back one hour on Sunday morning so you will have the right start to next week and that your commute to work will be on schedule.
This year's daylight savings time ends at 2:00 am on the morning of Sunday, Nov. 6. You can either change your clocks late Saturday night or some time on Sunday morning. Most clocks are digitally programmed so you may not have to change those times at all.
Will it affect your commute your commute on Monday morning if you forget to set your clocks back one hour? It definitely will have an effect on your Bay Area commute if you suddenly find out that you think it is one time when it is another time altogether and you get somewhere too early or too late.
Do you need more information on the exact time you and your friends in the Bay Area should change your clocks? If so, go to the website of timeanddate.com and you will see very specific information on the time change for this weekend.
Verify you are on the right time
How will you know that you are back on the right time? Here are some useful ways to make sure you are back to regular time so your Monday morning commute and drive time in the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Area will be right on schedule.
Turn your cell phones and computers completely off and then turn them back on. Sometimes cell phones and computers re-set the time automatically. If you have any doubts about if your phone or computer did this over night, turn them off and back on again.
Call your friends and see what time they are. Lots of people still enjoy receiving a good old-fashioned telephone call. If not, simply text your friends or family members and ask them what time they have on their clocks and devises.
Turn on a football game. Most football games start around 10:00 am or 1:00 pm on Sundays. If you tune in after these times and the games have not started, you know something is wrong.
These are just a few ideas for making sure you set your clocks back one hour like everyone else. If you do so, then your Monday morning commute should go smooth and be normal.

Clearly they think he has 1337 h4x0r skillz
>And if it was only a few people affected why was their customer phone line in meltdown such that I've never seen before with any other company of a similar size? If they can't deal with the calls coming in then that suggests the impact is far bigger than you think it is.
It probably affected a sizeable percentage of their customers. Anything more than 10% is likely to cause customer phone line meltdown. But it was far from all of them. (I'm in Scotland, and obviously it didn't affect us up here.)
About 1/2 hour for me... Certainly less than $1,000 dollars worth of time!
Shame the handy cousin didn't just install Classic Start Menu...
I expect the time travellers often leave incriminating evidence around. However, if they get caught they obviously just go back in time to erase the evidence before it gets spotted. Duh.

>The British are really anal about everything.
I somehow doubt the infamous Superbowl wardrobe malfunction cause have the same kind of hysterical overreaction here, compared to what happened in the U.S...
I too misunderstood the use of the word "partner". Why they don't just use the word "colleague" instead is beyond me.
>> I've taken more pictures today than I have the past 5 days thanks to this.
And also thanks to his nervous tic.
>>Looking at Britain, which has one of the toughest sets of laws controlling guns in civilian hands in the western hemisphere. Astonishingly the use of guns in crimes including homicide has increased steadily since the passage of those laws.
Oh yes? Have a look here: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/police-winning-battle-against-inner-city-gun-crime-8463957.html
From which I quote:
"Firearms offences have fallen by more than 40 percent in less than a decade, with the rise of "gun culture" in Britain's inner cities apparently reversed because of improved police intelligence.
Figures out next month are expected to confirm the long-term decline in gun crime which resulted in 39 people shot dead in 2011/12 compared with a high of 96 ten years earlier."
>>We've noticed that upcoming communications powerhouse Huawei makes Google almost invisible on its flagship smartphones.

0.3% increase? And inflation is what, just now (worldwide)? So music sales are still on the way down...
> Where are the Pink Floydds? The Queens? The Guns n Roses?
There's still a lot of big (as in, can play to full stadia) bands going, but whether they are to your taste or not is a different matter. The Chemical Brothers, The Prodigy, Muse, Coldplay (not my cup of tea mind), The Killers, Florence and the Machine, Radiohead (still touring!) and Jack White to name but a few.
The main effect would be one of cooling. All those winds blowing around eventually end up as thermal energy - unless they are converted into some other energy first. A lot of the wind energy currently gets converted into wave energy, but even that eventually gets turned into thermal energy.
WTF indeed! And you can't post a review stating "Won't work on Nexus 7" unless you've actually installed it... While I can see the reasoning behind that limitation on reviewing uninstallable software, it's a bit annoying.
While I fully understand many of the comments here, I still do feel a bit for the artists who create the stuff that everyone thinks they should get for free (or at least, be able to buy once and then sell for the same amount).
I suppose the market is just changing - artists should make their money from touring, right? Although, I'm not totally clear how authors will make much money doing that, but the likes of the Arctic Monkeys should be ok!
(Yes, yes, I know that the big companies get by far the biggest slice of the pie, but I assume the writers get something - but that will be much reduced if people don't pay for as much stuff. Artists/Writers = Good, Big Companies = Bad, but stealing from the Big Companies = stealing from the artists and writers too. :( )
He could have used Kitchen Gun!
It's interesting how quickly this went from the proposal about creating *some* pay channels (created by the producers, not by Google) to OMG GOOGLE ARE GOING TO CHARGE FOR YOUTUBE *RAAAAAAGEFAAAACE*...
Fortunately, we're given a choice between matt and gloss here at work (we're all developers with 2 or 3 screens).
NOT A SINGLE PERSON (out of 20 or s) has opted for gloss... I think that tells us something. :)
>Why no giant botnets or other malware on iOS with its larger market share?
There *IS* malware on iOS. The thing is that you need to jailbreak your device to load apps from anything other than the Apple app store. With Android, you just need to go to settings and enable sideloading to load apps from the SD card.
However, you still do need to explictly go and enable that setting, and when you do it pops up a big warning message saying something like: "ATTENTION: Your phone and personal data are more vulnerable to be attacked by applications from unknown sources blah blah blah".
>>The average user does not have sufficient knowledge brains to make informed consent.
Maybe so, but I think that your average user will only download stuff from the app store...
>>Errr, because the kickstarter types don't know anything? I'd like to see them prise ten million smackers out of a >>red blooded private equity investor for this tat.
But a load of people have ALREADY PAID FOR THEM BECAUSE THEY WANTED THEM! It doesn't matter if "kickstarter types don't know anything". They still wanted the watch, didn't they? Which clearly means that it is not true that no-one wants them. Surely this is trivially obvious?
The article wrote: "But that begs a question about just why anyone is targeting a market with products it seems no-one wants?"
No-one wants? If that's the case, why did the Pebble Bluetooth Smart Watch kickstarter gain more than 70,000 pledges and more than $10,000,000 in funding?
Personally, I'm not interested in them - but to say that no-one wants them is clearly untrue.
>>The metre is defined in terms of physical constants.
>>The litre is defined in terms of metres.
>>One litre of pure water weighs 1kg.
>>Where's the problem?
One problem is that a litre of pure water AT STANDARD TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE weighs 1KG,
Pressure is measured in Pascals, which is defined in terms of Newtons - which is itself defined in terms of Kilograms. And there's the big problem - you are trying to define a kilogram in terms of something that is (indirectly) defined in terms of kilograms. Clearly, that's totally bogus.
>>I'd rather the comfort of a GSV, myself.
Just try to avoid the Sleeper Service. That's my advice.
That reminds me - I forgot to re-enable Java in my browser since the last time this happened. Happily, that means I don't need to do anything now. Seems I don't really need Java enabled in my browser these days.
>>Will they blow me off and just keep piling up auto-ripped tracks in their cloud until it hits the limit and they start charging me?
You post on a technology site, yet you think that they'd keep a separate copy of identical music for each user? D'oh!
The Nexus 4 clock looks good to me. Doesn't need special permissions, and it's free.
But if you want to pay for one (shudder), there's ones like "SImple Analog Clock" which look ok.
Well, it seems a little obvious to me. In the physical world, you can make something bigger by stretching it, or smaller by compressing it - like the design on a balloon. The pinch gesture is an obvious analogue for a touch screen. I realise that double-tapping can also work, but it doesn't make the pinch gesture any less obvious.

Well-known Wikipedia-hater in Wikipedia hating shock!
Herpdiderp, I guess.
I programmed in C++ from 1987 until 2005, when we switched to C#. I still do have to maintain our old legacy C++ code from time to time.
My personal opinion is that switching from C++ to C# was the best thing we could have done! Most of what we were doing was UI code, and C++ is frankly totally crap for that. It's pretty good for device drivers and graphics libraries and other low level stuff. But for anything else, it's truly awful. And I say that from a position of having a GREAT DEAL of C++ experience.
Yes, I read - and understood - the seminal C++ books "C++ Templates" (Vandevoorde/Josuttis) and "Modern C++ Design" (Alexandrescu). Oh. My. God. To think I used to think it was all so cool - now I just think the language crawled up it's own arse and died... ;)
>>But do these apps come up with times that are less fictional than the 'countdown' displays on London bus stops?
The Edinburgh ones are amazingly accurate. Sometimes the buses get delayed in traffic, of course, but normally the times are accurate to within a couple of minutes.
Bus stops in Edinburgh have QR codes (there's an android and ipad app to give you the arrival times for the next few buses at a bus stop). The QR code takes you to the bus times app.
Anyway, I think it's a good example of a QR code which is NOT used for advertising.
(Can't edit my previous reply)
I meant to mention: My wife's pretty much stopped using her Kindle at home now. She always uses her Nexus 10 instead.
Nah, I don't get any eye strain at all. I spend all day reading computer screens - I'm a software developer!
I tell you what I do find makes the most difference - using a 10 inch tablet rather than 7 inch ones (including the Kindle). Reading on my wife's Nexus 10 is amazingly better than reading on a Kindle.
I can read on my Nexus 7 for more than 12 hours (reading, not playing games of course).
That's more than 6 times as long as time you mentioned...
I personally don't suffer from eyestrain when reading backlit text (I'd have a nasty time doing my job otherwise), but I do find it easier to read ebooks. I'd have thought the solution to that problem would be to, you know, not sit reading in a dark room?
However, does anyone read actual real books in darkened rooms? With some kind of magic see-in-the-dark eyes?
Seems the Times Newspaper likes the Nexus 7, since they'll give you one for £50 if you take out an 18 month sub for the newspaper. (Seems like a good deal if you were actually going to read the Times...)
>Something sporting a Tegra 3 and running JB4.2 ain't "low end".
But when it only costs £159, it HAS got the low-end sown up, when the other "low end" tablets are a similar price but with much lower specs.
>>Microsoft, true to its name, is a software company which does not do well when it attempts to do hardware.
In fairness, XBox and the Kinect did ok. In fact, isn't the Kinect the fastest selling consumer electronics device ever?
I got one of these as an early christmas present for my wife. I was going to also use it to learn a bit of android development, but I can't prise it out of her hands, so I had to get a Nexus 7 for my dev work. :)
The display is amazing, and watching high-res films like Timescapes is awesome. The non-metal case is nicer to hold than an iPad (I don't have an iPad but some of my friends do, so I can compare!). I guess that's really a matter of taste though.
Overall this is an amazing tablet; very glad I managed to snag one.
Nexus 10 32GB is out of stock too, after one hour. 16 GB is still available at the time of writing.
I managed to snaffle a 32GB one - after accidentally ordering 2 due to horrible Play store timeouts and so on. I cancelled the extra one - perhaps I should have kept it for ebay and $$$ profit... ;)
I'd have thought that the frequency with which new updates for a browser are released has a very major impact upon the proportion of users that are up-to-date. Firefox has had a lot of updates (I think) so perhaps that's a factor that needs to be taken into account?
@Neil Barnes: What century do you live in where you need to pay for a radio license?
"Ten... Shit Apple Pad Mini alternatives"
"Because they won't fit up my arse anything like as well as an iPad mini!"
There, fixed that for you. :)
The review wrote:
"An 8GB A110 will set you back £180 which is a tenner more than the equivalent Nexus 7 after you add post and packaging – the 8GB model only being available from Google's Play Store. If you want to buy a Nexus 7 over the counter, you have to go for the £200 16GB model, which may give the Acer an edge in the impulse purchase stakes."
However, the 8GB Nexus 7 has been replaced with the 16GB model at the same price. So you can buy the 16GB Nexus 7 for £159 or the 32GB one for £199.
So now the £180 Asus has 8GB less storage than the £159 Nexus 7... Which probably means almost no-one will buy one.
Just wait until they try to grab iPlayer over here. :)
