Does Airport Extreme provide greater speed than Airport or Airport Express?
I have the original Airport and I'm wondering if switching to Airport Extreme will improve my online speed?
- Asked by James L. K from Brooklyn
QA AirPort Extreme Base Station
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
Best Answer:
It will offer greater speed and range than your original AirPort since it is 802.11n. However, this speed is only noticable during file transfers, etc. as if you have 5 Mbps cable internet, an 802.11b device would be acceptable because that pushes out 11 Mbps. Wireless n will give you greater range for sure, but as far as making a difference in your browsing speeds, no.

Am I imagining that he likes me?? WOW...I hope not!!
He and I have connected as friends at work. We like the same things and we chat while he fixes my computer. He is mid 30's. I'm a few years older, so... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Sounds like he likes you. Why not just ask him if he is still up for some appetizers and happy hour tomorrow so you all can hang out? If he is still interested, then I would say he definitely wants to hang out with you. If not, oh well, there are plenty of fish in the sea.
He was totally up for it as of 5:30 yesterday. Totally flirty and fun! Today, he was mister avoider, and left at 3 without telling anyone. He was supposed to be back at 3:30, but it's almost 5:30 and no one has seen him. FLAKE, FLAKE, FLAKE.
Guys are just weird sometimes. You know how we can be moody, guys can be too. Maybe there are some outside factors in his personal life that you don't know about that make him act this way.
Update: he didn't call me 'cause he was having a roommate meltdown. He subleases from this guy, who got evicted last night. He was hoping to move at end of month (I knew about this) but now has to move this weekend. Last night he took his dogs to his sisters
What Guys Said 1
As a guy in the same age group, maybe he is just a little shy. Nervous of rejection if he comes forward first, and possibly afraid of loosing a friend that he is connecting with. Maybe instead of going to a local place everyone goes to, suggest instead of going to "###" maybe we can go to "@@@" I hear it is good. Maybe going to a place where you will know everyone could be a little nerve wracking knowing office rumors may start right away. Go some where quiet and you can go unnoticed by the other people. Maybe that will bring him out a little.
Thanks for the idea. Turns out, he has a lot of personal baggage that he has to deal with right now. I don't want to involve myself, so I don't want to add drama. I think the "familiarity' of the local place will work. Not a lot of our colleagues go there.
What Girls Said 2
I am in the same boat, but kudos to you for saying "we should go sometime" I bet that took some guts! I think he likes you and even if it is just friends for now it is not to say it will not turn into something even more special. Keep me posted maybe I can learn from your experience. :)
Well, I KNEW it was too good to be true! Yesterday he was sweet and very flirty. I asked if we were still on for thurs. and he said "yea! ". Well today he was not working near me, didn't come up at all, and LEFT at 3 pm. He's not answering his cell or text.
Have an opinion?

Museum fundraiser; 'Fondy Soulbration' market; 'Walk, Run and Wag' 5K
Take a seat
Milwaukee's historic house museums are offering patrons a seat at their annual fundraising event Wednesday. And, afterward — guests can take the chairs with them. The Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum and the Charles Allis Art Museum have been blessed with chairs — or artistic riffs on chairs — created by local artists for this auction at 6 p.m. at the Villa Terrace. The seats range from an old easy chair dressed as a cozy grandmother to a pew made from doors to a partial-chair that's now totally sculptural. Other seats for auction are ones at theatrical productions, sporting events or a table in a local fine dining establishment. The evening also features live music, hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar. Tickets are $25. Making a reservation would be appreciated and can be done by calling Ann Steinbach at (414) 278-8295 Ext. 5, but it isn't mandatory.

Kennedy assassination still source of inspiration for book writers
The Warren Commission finished its work nearly five decades ago, but testimony about the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963 has never stopped.
As the 50th anniversary of Kennedy's murder on Nov. 22 approaches, the testifying continues in a flood of new and revised books, about who might or might not have been behind the shooting, how the assassination may or may not have shattered the American psyche, and what Kennedy's legacy as president may or may not be. »Read Full Article(8)
'The Rosie Project' aims to build a better romantic comedy — and succeeds
In "Star Trek" terms, Don Tillman, the hero of Graeme Simsion's romantic comedy "The Rosie Project," is a whole lotta Data and a little bit Worf. He's trying to figure out human emotional behavior through logic, and he's pugnacious about it.
While Data wanted to be human, Don wants something simpler but no less difficult: a wife. As a postdoctoral researcher in genetics who works out regularly, he has a lot going for him. As he appears to be a high-functioning Asperger's guy with more than a little OCD and a preference for ruthlessly efficient time utilization, it's another story. »Read Full Article
Past delivered with fun in 'History of Britain in 36 Postage Stamps'
Once upon a time, people sent messages in things called "letters." And to get them to their destinations, they required colorful bits of adhesive paper called "stamps."
OK, so postage stamps aren't ancient history yet — you still see them once in a while, on wedding invitations, Christmas cards and notes from older relatives — but it's hard not to get a little nostalgic about them after reading "A History of Britain in Thirty-Six Postage Stamps," a breezy social history of Britain from the world's first postage stamp, the 1840 Penny Black, to a first-class issue from 2012. »Read Full Article

Like clockwork, Toby Keith has released a new album every single year since 2005 (before that, dating back to his 1993 debut, off years were few and far between.)

Granted, the MSO filling the Milwaukee Theatre stage as backup band isn't part of the porch scenario, but the homey, relaxed demeanor of two longtime singing-songwriting musical partners sharing their tunes certainly is. »Read Full Article(1)

I do not recall what sort of aeroplane Mr. Hughes had at the time; however, it was quite comfortable, as I recall.
1866, from French aéroplane (1855), from Greek aero- "air" (see air (n.1)) + stem of French planer "to soar," from Latin planus "level, flat" (see plane (n.1)). Originally in reference to surfaces (such as the protective shell casings of beetles' wings); meaning "heavier than air flying machine" first attested 1873, probably an independent English coinage (see airplane).

Shit...I thought I'd get tons of replies. Or at least a few PM's. I guess my point really did get across the community of Moddb. ;P Of course, you can all just keep on down-voting my comments because of no reason, but hey that's your opinion anyway. On a side note; I got another email from that guy. Apparently I got him grounded and he's going to get my IP, find out where I live, and get me because he's apparently in the Trench Coat Mafia. And well, needless to say I lol'd.

So I hardly check my email. At all. But recently I emailed Drummerworld to tell them how much I thought (well, knew actually) Jason Bittner sucked at drums. Which he does. The guy's got around 20 fuckin' cymbals that are useless and plays at 20 BPM on double bass. Alright that last part was an exaggeration but he's not fast at all. Regardless, THIS is the main point.

Left 4 Dead 1's DLC was just announced not too long ago. 'The Sacrifice' (typical name. ;D) is coming soon, and everyone is already raging about it. I don't know why, but apparently every move that Valve makes with Left 4 Dead ends up in making everyone hate them. Valve, for some reason, can't do shit right with this series. I mean hell, they made a big mistake in announcing that The Sacrifice would be the last thing that they release for Left 4 Dead.A non-exclusive DLC it would be, however. As Valve announced that it L4D2 players would be getting the DLC too, and L4D2 players would actually be getting more than the L4D1 players. So I decided to check into the Steam forums; after catching wind of the DLC being announced. And not to anyones suprise, it turns out to be raging every thread on the front page. I wonder, how in gods name is Valve going to go through with this.

FIX: ODS Errors During Attention Signal May Cause SQL Server to Stop Responding
Article ID: 236447 - View products that this article applies to.
This article was previously published under Q236447
This article has been archived. It is offered "as is" and will no longer be updated.
If an Open Data Services (ODS) error, such as:
Is encountered during the processing of an attention signal, the SQL Server process may stop responding (hang) and will not allow any new connections or existing queries to execute.
Error : 17805
Invalid buffer received from client
If the following message appears in the error log:
The hang of the server is likely imminent. However, the hang can also occur without seeing this message.
Process <spid> entered sequencer without owning dataserver semaphore
When the server stops responding, it will continue to allow connection requests to queue up until the maximum number of connections are reached (as defined by the user connections configuration value). However, to the user of these new connections, it will appear as though they are hung. When the maximum user connection limit is encountered, you will begin to see the following message repeated in the error log for each new user who tries to connect:
If you have a high number (for example, 1,000 or more) of user connections configured, you may also encounter the following message before reaching the maximum number of user connections on SQL Server build 6.50.427 or greater:
Unable to connect. The maximum number of '<max user conn>' configured user connections are already connected.
System Administrator can configure to a higher value with sp_configure.
Error : 17802
Creation of server event thread failed
A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Apply it only to computers that are experiencing this specific problem. This fix may receive additional testing. Therefore, if you are not severely affected by this problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next SQL Server service pack that contains this hotfix.
To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the fix. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services phone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;EN-US;CNTACTMSNOTE: In special cases, charges that are ordinarily incurred for support calls may be canceled if a Microsoft Support Professional determines that a specific update will resolve your problem. The typical support costs will apply to additional support questions and issues that do not qualify for the specific update in question.
The English version of this fix should have the following file attributes or later:
NOTE: Due to file dependencies, the most recent hotfix or feature that contains the above files may also contain additional files.
Version File name Platform ------------------------------------ 6.50.451 Sql451i.exe Intel 6.50.451 Sql451a.exe Alpha
Reducing the number of attention signals sent to SQL Server may reduce the frequency of the problem. You can reduce the number of attention signals sent from an application by ensuring that all results are processed. Avoid canceling a query or closing a connection before all results are processed.
Because error 17805 is the primary condition to encounter an ODS error when processing an attention signal and this error has only been observed when using the TCP/IP network library, switching to another network library may also reduce the possibility of encountering this problem.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server 6.5.
More information
The primary symptom for the hang to occur is seeing an ODS error during processing of attention signals. The most common error that could be encountered under these conditions is:
Unfortunately, other issues may cause ODS to raise error 17805 when processing packets other than attention signals. There is no way based on the error 17805 to see whether it occurs when processing attention signals or some other packet. Using a tool like SQLTrace or Network Monitor can help you determine if attention signals are being sent to the server.
Error : 17805

Sabic Innovative Plastics is touting its role in helping LSG Sky Chefs and galley equipment maker Norduyn create a new line of ultra-light in-flight trolleys that are aimed at helping to reduce fuel burn consumption and emissions.
Launched at the recent Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, the new full- and half-size trolleys utilize Noryl resin in the frame and critical components to replace metal, "thereby slashing weight by up to 40% and reducing the number of parts by a third", says Sabic. This high-tech engineered plastic also provides non-halogenated flame retardance and enhanced safety with industry-leading flame/smoke/toxicity (FST) performance meeting federal regulations, it adds.
Ultem resin was selected for external components, including profiles that support the frame, due to its resistance to UV light and ability to be custom-colored, allowing Norduyn and LSG Sky Chefs to offer trolleys in airlines' brand colors.
Sabic provided one-stop shopping for these products for LSG Sky Chefs and Norduyn. The company "delivered exactly what we needed", says LSG Sky Chefs head of engineering Thomas Kohler, adding that, by using the Ultem and Noryl materials, the firm is "doing our part to help the environment by cutting fuel usage resulting in lower emissions".
Separately, Sabic has created a solution to replace heavier airline-grade die-cast and machined aluminum for aircraft interior components in a bid to slash weight by up to 50%.
The firm is working with Vaupell, a global contract manufacturer of customer injection-molded components and assemblies, to validate the new Ultem resin materials in aircraft tray table arm components.

The branch of anthropology concerned with comparative measurements of the human body and its parts.
The study of human body measurement for use in anthropological classification and comparison.

HSBC "lift" by Grey London
Agency: Grey London
Rating: 5.0
By Sara Kimberley, campaignlive.co.uk, Friday, 01 July 2011 12:10PM
The oil giant is returning to TV screens tonight (1 July) following a five-year hiatus from TV advertising. The ad, created by Ogilvy & Mather, features BP's sponsored athletes from the Olympics and Paralympics, including British track athlete Jessica Ennis and Paralympic runner Richard Whitehead.
The 30-second spot shows BP's commitment to "fuels of the future", with the campaign strapline including: "London 2012 fuelling the future."
The ad, which runs throughout July, features the athletes running in BP's bio fields, as well as on field tracks, surrounded by cars. The campaign will also run across print and outdoor.
Will Awdry, Ogilvy & Mather's creative director, was behind the campaign, along with art director Darren Urquhart and copywriter Thomas Smith.
The production company was Knucklehead and the ad was directed by Chris Hewitt. Mindshare was the media agency behind the campaign.
Duncan Blake, director of brand at BP, said: "We thought now people were in the mood to listen to message about the Olympics. We had to be thoughtful about the project and the brand, and to get the voice right. I'm confident people will see BP in a positive way."

I thought his newsletter was for china , yet TKC is a player in mid east ? please ehlp / thanks
His newsletter is for China and those recommendations dominate, however, he is connected in other places and looks at India, Korea and made this recommendation on TKC re: Turkey based upon his knowledge. He is most connected in China, but travels a lot and makes recommendations based upon what he thinks will make the most money and has the greatest opportunity.
thanks for reply.. whats his track record like ? would u rec his newsletter to me ?

BBC Review
Her debut's been a long time coming, but these 10 tracks have been worth the wait.
Luke Slater 2011
You might have expected north-western retro-folk singer Liz Green to have released at least one album by now. It was five years ago that she triumphed in Glastonbury Festival's emerging talent competition: its prize, a slot on the Pyramid Stage. Yet her career path has been a slow and steady one, and it is only now that she releases her debut full-length.
O, Devotion! is a product of London's Toe Rag Studios – famous for its analogue equipment and for having birthed The White Stripes' Elephant, notably – and the production fits Green's music well. Hers is a very English take on a style frequently redolent of pre-war American folk music. Dated though it may seem, you will not find any simple and crude facsimiles here.
Green emits a pained persona on almost every track, and even when the music takes a turn for the upbeat, she maintains a dark tone alongside dashes of black humour. Her delivery is smooth and mournful throughout; she laments magnificently where others might merely sing of passing woes. There are some old favourites amongst these tracks, like Bad Medicine, a mainstay for some years now; but Green presents much newly-penned material, too. The addition of a brass section beefs up certain songs, like the jaunty Midnight Blues, whilst absolutely making others, like the wandering, mercurial and waltzing Displacement Song.
The beauty of O, Devotion! is to be found in its simplicity. It would have been easy for there to be overbearing orchestrations; but the main focus has to be, and indeed is, the bare bones of each composition – carefully thought-out and expertly told lyrics backed by an acoustic guitar, wielded with incredible prowess and variety. The most stripped-back it gets is during the morbid closer Gallows, which opens with the lines "Come back to the wagon, this horse and this cart / They'll take you to the gallows at nine o'clock sharp". It's a slow, morose culmination of the album's previous works, hanging heavily on the heart as the end draws in.
Liz Green has been biding her time, but although the wait for O, Devotion! has been long, there can be no doubt that it has been worth it. Its careful arrangements, coupled with Green's unusual but deliberate vocal style and ear for a story, comprise a lasting testament to her talent.

Apply to extend your visit to Sweden
If you are visiting Sweden and need to stay longer than the period granted in your entry visa, your first step should be to apply for an extension to your visa. If this is not possible as you have already been granted 90 days' stay on a visa, you can instead apply for a visitor's residence permit. This also applies if you are a visa-free visitor and wish to stay longer than 90 days.
Extending a visa
In certain cases, you can receive an extended visa if your total stay is less than 90 days. This is possible in the following cases:
Force majeure — for example re-booking of a flight owing to airline strike or extreme weather.
Humanitarian reasons — for example if you or a close relative who resides in Sweden has been taken seriously ill.
Compelling personal reasons — for example, issues of health care or a business visit.
An application to extend a visa due to force majeure circumstances or humanitarian reasons is free of charge. But an application to extend a visa due to strong personal reasons is EUR 30.
How to apply for a visitor's residence permit
An application for a visitor's residence permit must be submitted personally at any of our Permit Units. You must book an appointment in advance. If you are invited to Sweden to visit relatives or friends, the person who invited you must accompany you and be able to identify himself or herself. You also need to bring your original passport.
Enclose the following documents with your application:
- The formApplication for visitor's permit, No 165011. For children under 18, you must use the form Application for visitor's permit for a child under the age of 18, No. 167011.
- The form Family details — Appendix to your application, No. 239011.
- An account statement or other document showing that you have money for your subsistence during the time you plan to stay in Sweden. If someone else is paying for your support, that person's income information/assets must be verified.
- A return ticket or sufficient funds to procure one.
- The application fee for a permit is 1000 SEK for adults and 500 SEK for children. You will not receive a refund if your application is rejected. The fees are paid in connection with your submitting an application. You can only pay by credit card.
Application for visitor's permit, No 165011.
Application for visitor's permit for a child under the age of 18, No. 167011.
Family details ‑ Appendix to your application, No. 239011
Once we have received your application
Those who receive a residence permit will be given a residence permit card. The card is proof of your residence permit.
You will need to visit one of the Swedish Migration Agency's Permit Units to submit fingerprints and be photographed. This will usually take place when you submit your application in person. You can also be called to the Migration Agency at a later date. You will also be called to the Migration Agency if you send in your application by post.
Please note that you need to be photographed and submit your fingerprints even if you previously have had a residence permit card since your photo and fingerprints cannot be saved.
After the decision has been made
The decision will be sent to your address in Sweden. Your residence permit card will be sent to your address in Sweden within one week.
Important information about insurance
You will not be registered in Sweden, which means that you will not be eligible for social benefits. Make sure to have an insurance policy that will cover any costs that may arise in connection with illness, injury, etc.

...as for sustainability for Arenanet as a money maker...I don't think they will be based soley on a cash shop. I am guessing they will also come out with seperate expansions as with GW1 (Factions, Nightfall + EON).

The problem with The Secret World and Guild Wars 2 is this: I'm being told what to do and where to go... the entire time.
I don't have any control of my destiny. Sometimes I want to shift the engine in neutral and just hang out. I want to plant a house, start a player city, attack rival cities, experience deep crafting, and start a player shop.
I can't do any of this in these Theme Park games.
ArcheAge, IMO, looks to be the sustainer of MMOs. We'll see, though.

Victor Barreiro does not understand the point.
Of course WvW can turn out to be bad, of course DEs could be boring. We are going to see soon.
GW2 is something special because of all the things they do differently. No trinity, no item-grind, etc. It is the exact opposite to MMOs like SWTOR, where everything is the old same as it has been the past 10 years.
Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need.

No, GW2 has done alright...it just hasn't blown everyone away in the gaming world 1 millioni is a long way from the 10 million DIablo 3 got.

I think people need to stop looking for some monolithic "winner" of the genre, and just pick one or more they enjoy and play them. I'm currently enjoying GW2 and TSW, and both are really good games. If the sandbox game I have in my sig turns out to be the great game it looks to be, then I won't have time for either of the two I am playing now. Then again, maybe Planetside 2 will surprise me, and I will end up playing that instead.
Frankly, I don't care, as long as I am having fun. I don't need the general population to agree that my games are the best games. This is no longer a market where one game is going to destroy all the others. It has grown into a diverse genre with something for just about everyone (though us sandbox players are still waiting). If you can't look out there and find one you like, you are probably your own problem.
A sure sign that you are in an old, dying paradigm/mindset, is when you are scared of new ideas and new technology. Don't feel bad. The world is moving on without you, and you are welcome to yell "Get Off My Lawn!" all you want while it happens. You cannot, however, stop an idea whose time has come.

At least you are not being rude and insulting in your comments. I hope ArcheAge is the game for you.

Im going to say the OP is wrong in a sense..
GW2 is an mmo savior for many of us in the WoW/classic mmo player aftermarket, i like many others was about finished with MMo gaming until GW2 came along..
Does that mean everyone will love it?
No..But for them there is already a gazillion games for many of us there is now a choice..
But it is nice to have options and choices because the mmo player aftermarket is huge and for the most part it has been an unheard, neglected and abandoned playerbase that was starving for a different approach and anet gets that..
GW2 is an amazing milestone in mmo developement and the more players play it the more clear it becomes just how different it is..

I agree with much of this article but i disagree with his comment about cash shop effectiveness. LoL is one of the most successful games in history with 32 million users in a single year and it has made tons of revenue from their cash shop model. WoT has experienced similar success as a f2p cash shop game. Many other games ranging from Atlantica Online to Combat Arms and Maple Story all have followed this model. The only difference between those games and GW2 is you buy the box with GW2 then it becomes like those games.
The other point i disagree with is even considering GW2 as a potential next WoW. While i already love GW2 and think it is much better than WoW, i dont think its possible to do what WoW did. When WoW came out it had no real competitors and it dominated the market. I think GW2 can get a huge number of users but the market is so big now that I don't believe any game will ever be able to singlehandedly dominate the market ever again. WoW really hasnt since 2007 while their user base has stayed consistantly strong the market grew even more.today to dominate the market you would need 20-30 million users like LoL and i don't see that as possible for an MMORPG with all of the other decent MMO's out that will each take 1-2 million away.
I believe that it is the savior of MMO's because it is already going to be successful enough to lead game developers away from making WoW clones and try something new. That is what i think the MMO world needed more than anything else and i believe it will succeed in that.

It's not going to be the saviour because MMO's do not need a saviour. I am happy with the fact that - in my opinion - it is an amazing game that was well worth the wait, offers me far more fun than I have had in an MMO in a long time, and is likely to retain enough players to support an active community for years to come. An MMO does not need to topple World of Warcraft to be successful or force competitors to up their game.

I think a game like Day Z is more akin to a "savior" of MMO's. The problem with "MMORPG's" is that they fail to put the RP in the MMO"RP"G part of it. There is no cause and effect in Guild Wars 2. No dynamic choices that a character can make. What a player does really has no impact on the world around them. To date there are only three MMO's that have ever really been made that had any sort of effect like that. NWN on AOL, Ultima Online, and Shadowbane. Those three are the closest you'll get. NWN on AOL was the best in my opinion as the entire game centered around role playing. You couldn't even make a guild in old school NWN without role playing. Games like Day Z are good for the sheer reason that your actions can and do matter. You have to love permadeath for that ;)

Gaming should be about fun, not gender equality.
Interesting article and I agree with the bit about fanboys, they can really be a negative aspect of any game because they will try to stifle any kind of criticism, legetimate or not, of their object of admiration.
However the last bit about us consumers being saviour of anything is just plain wrong. Consumers have only one obligation and that is to pay for products which are good and not to pay for products which are not. This is the only proper way to promote a healthy environment where crappy games get weeded out and the good one's stand out. This includes seeing past all the bullshit and marketing hype and critically review a game before buying it or continuing to support it.
As for savior of the genre, GW 2 is defintely not, it just "just" a solid ThemePark MMO with nothing groundbreaking. Possible savior would be the upcoming ThemePark/Sandbox hybrid, ArcheAge or a potential commercial production of DayZ. Those games are trying to break the stale situation which have existed in the genre for the past 4-5 years, GW 2 does not.

To hell with Devil's Advocate bits. You should be one of the main writers for this site in general. Can't give enough kudos to your article and I wholeheartedly agree with your points.
1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.
2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.
3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.

I have already spent over $150.00 in the cash shop cause I have 2 boys playing the game as well as me and We each got $50.00 worth of Gems. Then they wanted the appearance armor for their toons like me so since its only single use you have to by the transmution stones and early on you burn through them. That said it was funny how many tells I got asking where I got the armor I was wearing. Lots of peeps where asking what HOM reward it was lol. Gems also allowed us to make inventory bigger and the bank bigger as well. Then there are the dyes and OMG its like buying a pack of football cards. Sorry im in my 30's most kids dont do that anymore but I wanted my armor to look diffrent so I kept getting dyes till I had the leet black and red combo I was looking for.

You are proving the writer's point: You do the game a disservice by pouncing on anyone with a negative view of GW2, and it's really silly and pointless. Why not enjoy the game that you enjoy, and not worry about differing opinions?

Great article! GW2 is not meant to save anything nor anyone. What it does do is provide another choice for gamers who have become fatigued by the standard MMO experience of grind and grind some more.

I think GW2 is a step in the right direction but it won't be the saviour, I don't believe any game can ever do that regardless.
I do believe that GW2 is quite possibly the best mmo since vanilla WoW and has real potential which I hope Arenanet build on. It's the first mmo that I've not been 100% focused on levelling initially and have just been doing what I find fun like map completion, to me this is great game design.
Just to point out the 1 million pre purchase sales is only digital purchases direct from Arenanet and doesn't include retail pre-order sales which is going to be massive.
One things for sure, its the best £60 that I've spent on an mmo in years and I do feel I'm going to get my moneys worth and then some.

Any BTDT mamas have any recommendations for how to purchase maternity pants? My last pregnancy my pants were ALWAYS falling down and it drove me crazy! I know this is a matter of personal preference- but do you prefer full panel or demi panel? Any particular brands? On a tight budget but I'm going to have to buy some more maternity clothes because most of what I had last time was borrowed.
Maternity jeans/pants?
A face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face.
Betty & Jack 2008
I didn't wear maternity pants because they fit me funny.
Instead I used a hair tie to attach the button on my regular jeans to the loop hole, and wore a belly band over the top of my jeans and under my shirt. The belly band gives the illusion that you're just wearing a long undershirt. that way you don't have to spend a lot of money on jeans that you won't even be wearing for very long. Keeping my regular jeans and just using the hair tie allowed me to create extra room in the waist.

i got a couple pairs from old navy that didnt have a panel the elastic was actually hidden in the jeans. I love them. I plan to buy more :)

Definitely try a belly/bella/be band. I got mine online at Target last pregnancy. It didn't work very well for very long, because I'd get lightheaded and sick if there was ANY pressure on my belly (hence I adored full panel). But so far this time it's working out well.
In combination with the belly band, or without it, you might want to try pants a size up. Just a thought.
As well as the full and demi panel jeans, there are ones with just a strip of elastic at the waist. Those might work better for you.

I second the Goodwill option! I was just there today and saw three pairs of nice maternity pants. However, I could not buy them because I was there with my MIL who doesn't know I am pregnant yet. Bummer!
Also, I would buy full panel. With my last pregnancy, I wore the demi panel during the second trimester. Once time I was showing a teeny tiny bit of my belly because I didn't realize my shirt wasn't covering the bottom part of my tummy. It was embarassing and it happened at work. This time around I'm wearing the full tummy panel the whole time to make sure everything is perfectly covered at all times!
i found my most favorite pair of maternity jeans last pregnancy at JCPenney. i am PRAYING they will fit me this time. i was SO sad when i officially had to stop wearing them postpartem. LOL. they were full panel. i loved the full panel as soon as i could wear them. but until then, i am happiest in Old Navy "real waist" maternity pants.

Again--that's ONLY for those who tried to answer the question. Here's the update:

Gear Review
LOVE these shades!
I have always wanted aviators but they are usually too big for my face. These are perfect. After wearing them for awhile you do start to notice their weight, but they aren't super heavy despite having sturdy metal frames. Very nice styling. I mildly regret getting the purple lenses, as they are only appropriate for cloudy/overcast conditions (should have gotten the darker lenses for the sunny beach). Highly recommended!

The Rally Onion wants 150 fans before Opening Day.
I'm calling gross exaggeration based on little or no evidence.
Being convinced of something is not evidence that anything of the sort actually occurred. Certainly not when it comes to the court system. Chapman's millions make him an easy mark, though."...To this day, I'm convinced that Chapman was working with State Security. It's known that he had a meeting with Raul Castro. My husband isn't the only one imprisoned because of Chapman. He was the principal witness in the case, and his statement was full of lies. That's the only way they'd let him return to the Cuban team."
The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. -- Terrance Mann (Field of Dreams)
I like one of the comments at the bottom:
When reporters asked Ozzie Guillen about this he said "I friggen love Aroldis Chapman!"
I am just completely unsure how you would go about proving any of this. It isn't like Cuba is going to cooperate.
It sounds to me like someone thinks Aroldis Chapman might be guilty of something, and the only way to get compensated for it is to sue him and hope it's a winning lottery ticket.

The chances of this getting very far are pretty low. Though the rules for evidence in civil cases are somewhat looser than for criminal cases, there does still need to be something approximating proof. I was wrongfully sued in civil court once with the same kind of "evidence" being brought forth; the judge basically laughed the plaintiff out of the courtroom (and we won damages in a countersuit...long unpleasant story for another time).
Okay, I may be missing something here. But it sounds like this all occurred in Cuba. How exactly can you file a lawsuit against someone over something that happened in a different country? Especially one that's completely uncooperative with the US?
How do we know he's not Mel Torme?
Does this have anything to do with the mystery distraction from 2011?
Tim McCarver: Baseball Quotes
I remember one time going out to the mound to talk with Bob Gibson. He told me to get back behind the batter, that the only thing I knew about pitching was that it was hard to hit.
What exactly is he accused of doing? In simple terms for a simple man please.
This sure looks like a money grab to me. Since when do US police arrest people when Raul Castro asks them to? Unfortunately this is a case where Aroldis is learning a lesson in $$. If you have it you are a target for these sorts of scams. Let's hope he gets good representation and fights it tooth and nail. Spend some of your money on Lawyers, Aloldis. I know it sucks but that's the price you pay...
Kal, it seems that he's being accused of giving information to the Cuban government that resulted in the arrest of a man, then delivering false testimony at the man's trial which played a large part in his eventual incarceration. The man's wife is the one filing the suit. At least this is how I understand it. I could be wrong.What exactly is he accused of doing? In simple terms for a simple man please.
I know we have at least one lawyer here (Kc61, maybe?) that could possibly shed some light on this.

Compiling all this here so I don't flood the forum. I posted the girth a while back, but I've lowered the price. :) I will have to post pictures later, but I wanted to go ahead and get this up since I'm pretty motivated to sell this stuff - my tack cubby is overflowing!
Willing to negotiate on all items above $5, figuring those items are at rock-bottom prices anyway! Haha! Will ship however you like, although you're responsible for those costs. If anyone needs an estimate, please feel free to PM me. :)
Also, if you're interested in something but waiting for pictures, please let me know so I can let you know when I post them!
5.5" O-Ring French Link Snaffle (Sweet Iron Mouthpiece) ~ $10
Only used this about a month.
White Synthetic Sheepskin Half-Pad ~ $5
Pretty clean, no major stains. One tiny light orange spot under the saddle area. Synthetic sheepskin. Not quite as thick as most half-pads, but looks sharp and would be excellent for a horse that needs a little more padding without too much thickness.
54" Dark Leather Girth ~ $20
Bought this off bay for $40. Used with a girth sock, so it's in perfect condition. Really doesn't match my saddle - looked lighter and more havana in the photo on ebay, but it's just a dark brown.
Professional's Choice Back Support Wrap XL ~ $20
These sell for $60 new. In great shape. Navy. And not only does it provide good support for riders with bad backs, it has a piece of foam or something in the back that would offer protection in a fall. Can be worn over or under a shirt.
9 Wide/Wide Calf Tall Dress Boots ~ $40
In nearly new condition. Need some breaking in, but quite comfy even so. Calf is 15" around, 16" tall.
Synthetic Suede Half Chaps XL ~ $5
In decent shape. One of the foot straps on the bottom is coming off, and there is wear on the insides as would be expected. They're too tall for my stubby legs!
2 Halters (Burgundy/Black) + 1 Burgundy Lead ~ $5
Would be great spare halters or halters for use at a boarding barn, so that no good halters get lost or torn up.
Purple Troxel Spirit Helmet + Velvet Cover ~ $10
Got a new helmet for Christmas, so I probably won't have any need to use this again. I fell in it once, but I did not hit my head, just my butt (LOL!). Has a few white dings on it from me bumping my head with it on stuff like a klutz, but it's otherwise perfect. Inside padding piece has been washed.
Burgundy Close Contact Pad ~ $10
Has "SLT" logo on one side, but it's not large and is discreet. Pretty gold piping. Micro suede outside, cotton underside. Underside is burgundy, not white. Barely used.
Burgundy Polo Wraps (Full) ~ $5
Used only a couple of times. Would match the burgundy pad above nicely. I would be glad to pair the two for $12.50.
Black Nylon Bell Boots Medium ~ $5
Only used for about a week, in excellent condition.

GOP reverses early-voting trend
Republicans showing big improvement in turnout
After one week of early voting for the Aug. 5 Shelby County general election and federal and state primaries, Republicans continue to show enormous improvement in generating turnout.
The Facebook post Saturday of County Commissioner Deidre Malone, a Democrat who ran for county mayor in the primaries, captured the plight of her party headed into this week's final six days of early voting: "Have you voted yet? I normally wait until Election Day, but I'm getting a little concerned about early voting numbers, specifically Democratic numbers. Who wants to join me and vote early?"
But Saturday was again a disappointing day for Democratic turnout -- and, in percentage terms, the strongest yet for Republicans, with 2,006 (52 percent) voters asking for a Democratic ballot and 1,858 (48 percent) asking for a Republican.
Another bad sign for Democrats -- on Friday and Saturday, registered black voters cast fewer than 29 percent of ballots (registered white voters were close to 45 percent).
That is a huge reversal from the numbers seen in 2006 and 2008 when, on some days, up to 70 percent of voters asked for Democratic ballots and registered black voters often comprised 45 percent of a given day's turnout.
Here is a look at some of the trends headed into the final six days of early voting:
Overall turnout: It is at 41,334, or 6.9 percent of the 600,518 registered voters in Shelby County.
If the second week of early voting ends with the traditional spike often seen in the final three days, getting to 90,000 or possibly even 100,000 early votes is very possible, which would set a record for an August election. That would put turnout on pace to surpass the 2006 August primary, when nearly 159,000 voted, but getting to the 2002 mark of 190,890 (a record for an August election) would require a strong election-day turnout.
By party: So far, 22,345 voters (54.1 percent) have asked for Democratic ballots vs. 18,562 (44.9 percent) asking for Republican, which is a bad long-term trend for Republicans but a remarkable improvement from recent years.
One week into early voting in the 2008 August election, 69.3 percent had asked for Democratic ballots vs. 30.6 percent for Republican, and in the fall presidential election, the Republican candidate, John McCain, received only 35 percent of the vote in Shelby County.
Republicans report that many of their reliable voters in the 9th Congressional District are asking for Democratic ballots so they can have a say in the battle between incumbent U.S. Rep. Steve Cohen and former Memphis mayor Willie Herenton. By the same token, some local Democrats believe many of their voters -- especially those in the 7th and 8th Congressional Districts -- may be asking for Republican ballots to influence the GOP gubernatorial race between state senate speaker Ron Ramsey of Blountville, Chattanooga congressman Zach Wamp and Knoxville Mayor Bill Haslam (the Democrats have only one gubernatorial candidate, Jackson businessman Mike McWherter).
By race: Though many younger or newer voters no longer disclose race when registering, the majority of voters still do (voting-rights laws asked for numbers in order to detect any irregular patterns that might indicate discrimination).
So far, 18,204 (44.0 percent) registered white voters have cast ballots vs. 13,198 registered black voters (31.9 percent) and 9,932 in the "other" category (24.0 percent), which mixes those who disclose another race or do not disclose race at all. Put another way, 10.1 percent of the county's 180,324 registered white voters have cast ballots vs. 6.4 percent of the 207,452 registered black voters and 4.7 percent of the 212,767 in the "other" category.

Depending on whom you ask, the Sacramento Kings are either staying put or moving to Seattle. But since David Stern is determined to give Seattle another NBA team before he retires in 2014, the smart money says that the Kings are Seattle bound.With that fact in mind, Chris Hansen, the man leading the Seattle ownership group, has announced that the group is about to launch "a Priority Ticket Waitlist for future Sonics tickets." A move similar to what Sacramento ownership did back in January.Hansen says that the waitlist will help the ownership group understand the demand for tickets in Seattle. But most importantly, it's a tool to show the NBA that basketball in Seattle can still work.In addition to helping us understand and prioritize the demand for tickets, registering your interest will be a critical step in demonstrating to the NBA and basketball fans around the country the unbelievable passion that exists in the Emerald City to BRING BACK OUR SONICS!Obviously, this smells like Ha...

A NEW non-invasive blood test for pregnant women could make it easier to catch abnormalities before their child is born.
Human cells should have two copies of each chromosome but sometimes the division is uneven. Existing tests count the fragments of placental DNA in the mother's blood. If the fragments from one chromosome are unusually abundant, it might be because the fetus has an extra copy of that chromosome. But triploidy, where there are three copies of every chromosome, is missed, since the proportion of fragments from each chromosome is the same.
California-based company Natera uses an algorithm to calculate the most likely genotype for the fetus. To do this it looks at single letter variations called SNPs in the parents and compares this to a database of the most common SNPs patterns in the population. This genotype is then compared with placental DNA.
This approach can catch triploidy since the whole fetal genotype is the reference rather than a single chromosome. The method was presented last week at the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine in San Francisco.

A Pennsylvania court should disclose the legal settlement between a family that claimed natural-gas drilling threatened its health and several gas producers, a group of physicians and researchers said.
Sealing the court records contributes to a veil of secrecy that makes it impossible for doctors to assess the potential health risks of drilling, Jerome Paulson, medical director at the Washington-based Child Health Advocacy Institute, said today on a conference call. The institute and other physicians' groups joined an appeal of a January order by Judge Paul Pozonsky in the Court of Common Pleas for Washington County that sealed the documents.
The case involves a family that sued Range Resources Corp. (RRC:US) and other companies after parents and children began suffering health symptoms they blamed on hydraulic fracturing for gas on their property, according to a brief filed by the environment group Earthjustice on behalf of the physicians. Last year the parties reached a confidential settlement.
"We know that there are many chemicals used in the process of unconventional gas extraction," Paulson said on the call with reporters. "We do not know all of the chemicals that are intentionally used. Without this data and data about releases of chemicals to air and water, physicians and public health officials are in an untenable position when trying to help individuals who are ill."
Headaches, Nosebleeds
In fracturing or fracking, millions of gallons of chemically treated water are forced underground to break up rock and free trapped gas. Advances in the technology have made it possible to extract gas in places such as Pennsylvania where drilling takes place close to homes.
Stephanie and Chris Hallowich, who filed the lawsuit, said they and their children suffered headaches, nosebleeds, burning eyes, and sore throats as a result of drilling on their property. Drillers in Pennsylvania are tapping into the Marcellus Shale, a formation that stretches from New York to Tennessee.
State laws for disclosing chemicals used in fracking let companies withhold information considered to be a trade secret. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency this month issued rules that require drillers to lower emissions at the well.
The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Observer-Reporter in Washington, Pennsylvania, challenged the judge's ruling sealing records in the case. A brief in support of the newspapers was filed on behalf of Philadelphia Physicians for Social Responsibility, and other groups, according to the groups.
