@electro-elvis: I noticed the red light, but it doesn't seem to be running. Not even walking I think.
You can hardly see it, because it is running around its little glass sphere
more playing around with the orientation filter, this is interesting, the red tint is on the transparency,
and one more
last one I swear, not exactly SSS but an interesting effect..
Rareth - interesting yes, these are certainly close relatives of SSS. That you should try orientation filtering is something that had not occurred to me. I'm running tests with curvature filtering at the moment, trying to do away with the need for an "absorber" but the render times are still prohibitive.
And some more unusual curvature material tests…
that Bryce Tutorials Info and this Products made by Horo and myself and a link to my gallery at DAZ 3D
Bryce 10 minute project - setting up DS skin textures - continued - by David Brinnen
Pressing on.
David - wow that one looks alot better, very nice
Rareth - 27 November 2012 12:01 PMDavid - wow that one looks alot better, very nice
Thank you. Here is another experiment. Which is a combination of renders, one of which features a curvature controlled decaying copper kind of material effect.
Holy Moly call the CDC she's been infected!!
ok I think I've reached my limit for now for hammering on SSS, last pic then I go chase another shiney..
Experimenting with different fillers
Interesting and also curiously appetising.
Just for fun I've been playing with more metallic finishes.
@eireann: Thank you for the link. Now to figure out how to use it.
@electro: That is an interesting object. Since no one knows what it does I believe it could be use for almost anything. As long as the light is lit.
@David: Your new girlfriend looks much better with the different textures. Without them there appear to be striations on her legs and lower torso. Still, those texture tests like mighty nice.
If you constantly look backward, it's guaranteed you'll run into something on your forward journey.
My Gallery Page: GussNemo's Efforts
GussNemo - 27 November 2012 04:42 PM@eireann: Thank you for the link. Now to figure out how to use it.
The most interesting seem to be booleaning with the latest .tar.gz plugin
and rightclick on empty scene…Plugins Incubator…Shape extruder.
@eireann: I'll have to give that one a try. It took these old eyes a moment to realize which choice you were referring to. I didn't think the plugin had installed properly, but it did.

There is an active scientific publishing community with 4 OA institutional repositories in Croatia and a central portal of Croatian scientific journals (Hrcak) that offers OA access to the over 250 journals. There are more than 130 journals in Croatia; DOAJ indexes 81 journals of them.
Enabling Environment:
University of Zagreb Medical School Repository is a fully functioning OA institutional repository; there are a further 43 OA repositories. Academic librarians have high awareness of OA. The public nature of the Croatian publishing industry lends itself to OA and self-archiving – publishers of Croatian scientific journals are non-for-profit organizations (mostly universities, scientific associations, scientific institutes) and they allow self-archiving.
Potential Barriers:
Lack of national mandates; non-Croatian publishers that publish research results of Croatian scientists do not always support OA – some of the articles written by Croatian scientists and published abroad cannot be self-archived (i.e. made accessible through OA repositories).
Major Projects/Initiatives:
Croatian Information and Documentation Society's (HID) OA working group initiated in 2004. The result was the launch of the Hrcak portal for Croatian scientific journals (supported by the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports, developed and maintained by University Computing Centre SRCE).
National and Institutional Level Policies/Mandates:
None , although in the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports' document "Science and technology policy of the Republic of Croatia 2007-2010" it is specified that the results of research (all research is publicly funded) should be accessible to the general public through open publications or databases.
Funding Mandate
Ministry of Science, Education and Sports' document "Science and technology policy of the Republic of Croatia 2007-2010" it is specified that the results of research (all research is publicly funded) should be accessible to the general public through open publications or databases.

University of Zagreb Medical School Repository

Compliant with Open Access Initiative protocols. Communication address: University of Zagreb, Medical School, 10 000 Zagreb, Šalata 3; e-mail: smk(at)medlib.mef.hr
Croatian Information and Documentation Society (HID)
Overview: Established to develop information and documentation sciences in Croatia, to promote professional principles and encourage free flow or materials including OA initiatives.
OA mandate: Article 7 of HID Statute includes "encouraging development of free flow, access and openness of scientific, professional and public information channels, which derives from the users right on information is making them equally accessible to everyone".
Communication address: HID c/o National and University Library, Hrvatske bratske zajednice 4, 10 000 Zagreb, Croatia; e-mail: Marina Mayer, secretary, e-mail: mmayer(at)irb.hr
Past and Future OA Related Activities:
HID have organised a number of conferences and seminars that have included a focus on OA. OA was one of the topics of several conferences organized by Croatian Library Association (e. g. the Academic and Special Libraries Conference and the AKM - Archives, Libraries, Museums - Conference).
Open Access Week October 2011 at the University Campus in Rijeka, Croatia.

Today, Taylor hides from sound, even sleeping with headphones on.
"I'd like to be able to go to school and school events, participate in all my sports that I used to love, and hang out with friends and go out to dinner with my family," she told "20/20."
But, she said, "90 percent of my life is probably in my bedroom."
There has been a positive step recently: Taylor returned to a dance class she loves. The loud music that plays during the class muffles the sounds that could upset her.
Taylor has also been encouraged to try white noise ear buds and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a form of psychotherapy that aims to help patients by changing their thinking and emotional responses.
Bernadette remains hopeful.
"I feel that Taylor's such a strong, courageous kid, that she is going to help find a cure. And that's what I keep in the back of my head," she said. "She's going to be part of this. She's going to help others."
Watch the full story on "20/20" Friday at 10 p.m. ET.

Outgoing Cleveland Browns team president Mike Holmgren denied a report that he has already shown interest in potentially coaching the Dallas Cowboys. "I don't know how any of that stuff gets started," Holmgren told reporters at the Browns' headquarters Monday, according to Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain-Dealer. CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reported on "The NFL Today" pre-game show Sunday that Holmgren has "serious interest" in coaching the Cowboys should Jason Garrett be fired. "I just want to make something very, very clear," Holmgren said, per Tony Grossi of ESPNCleveland.com. "One, the last time I talked to anybody about my future was the last time in this room (on Oct. 23). I haven't talked to a single soul. "Second, I honestly don't know what the future holds and what I want to do. Believe me on that.

Great concealer I have very dark circles under my yes an this really works to brighten and conceal without looking shiny and puffy. Best concealer yet for me. I have a yellowish skin tone and the nude is perfect for me, you only need a very little and so I think will last forever less is more. It does not sit in the lines either so 10 put of 10 from me.Elaine, France
I use this during the day to fix my make-up because after using silkpaper to shiny areas there is less make-up left. Works better than ordinary pressed powder. I know it's not meant to use this way but it really works like this too. First it was just way to use this when I had changed LL mineral foundation back to usual foundation. But it worked so well as fixing product i keep buying this over and over again for this matter.Päivi, Finland
Love using this concealer, brilliant for covering dark shadows, red patches and any other blemishes. Doesn't feel heavy like cream concealers and doesn't clog the pores.cathy, uk
This really covers up well!! I purchased the Nude which is, I'm afraid, a little light for me during the summer months but will be perfect when my colour fades when the sun goes in for the year. It covers unbelievably well on the broken veins around my nose. I cannot believe how such a fine powder can cover so well and not leave me dry and cakey.Suzie P, Wales
I think this concealer is great. I use it on blemishes under my lily lolo foundation and it covers them well by taking down redness. Don't be shocked by how pale they are, they work!Donna, England
I just love love love this little concealer! I have Nude and is best, moisturizes without creasing and blocks any discoloration with a light natural look. My favourite!Jessica, Stockholm, Sweden
Lily Lolo 'Blush Away' is superb for calming ruddy tones and blemishes. It even helps spots dry out and heal rather than aggravate them. Highly recommended.Lyndee, Ipswich, UK
Cover Up in Blondie is really good to cover the dark circles under my eyes :) Love it! Is really good to cover redness around my nose and my cheeks too.Mari, Norway
Cover Up is absolutely brilliant in 'blush away' and 'nude'. The coverage is so very good for those of us with bad red acne scars. It's the best that I have tried.Maria, Denmark

My research into the memories of Kodak retirees came up blank. Nobody seems to remember anymore what the 'O' in OA or OC stands for, but they ruled 'ortho' as a candidate out, reasoning that other filters are more ortho than these and don't have the letter 'O' in them.
I afraid the answer is buried at the bottom of the Rochester dump.

I bought this due to all the good reviews, but wow, I think this is the first time I've been so disappointed by a product with an overall rating over 4.
This brush is absolutely crappy - the ends do not taper together at the tip, it's much thicker (fatter?) than I expected. In fact, it's so wide and splayed that it's impossible to use it even on my eyebrows (I am pretty precise about my eyebrows, though). If I had more time, I'd try and upload a picture - it's amazingly bad.
For a cheaper alternative to the MAC, stila (my personal fave), etc angled liner brushes, get the Ecotools one. The only downsides are that the handle is a bit too long (hard to get into makeup bag, hitting the mirror for super myopic folks like myself before lasik), and the head of the brush is also a bit long. But you get much better quality, a finely tapered end, a thin profile, and good control.
This ELF brush is going straight in the trash. I can't think of any good use for it

The ELF professional line of brushes have a nice balanced feel to them. The ferrules are firmly attached unlike their regular line of brushes. I use this brush daily to line with shadow on the lashline (or to blend shadow over liner in order to add color/blend). I'm using well pigmented shadows from UD, BB, Lancome, MAC for this. Very satisfied. Works great + made its way into my daily brush stash over a year ago. Still going strong. Better quality than similar brushes I own from BB and Smashbox. Soft, smooth application is easy. I have had zero shedding. A must-buy at this price.

I really wanted to love this brush the way so many other reviewers have as well! I was in need of a new eyeliner brush and wanted to try this one because of the price. However it's hard for me to get a straight line in one sweeps with my old brush. While I am drawing my line I will run out of liner! I have to get more gel liner a few times to finish my line. It creates a really thin line (not in one sweep) so it is good for tight lining if you are a patient person. I am returning this and going back for my old brush.

I absolutely love this brush for use with my gel and cream liners. I've yet to try MAC brushes, but I have tried angled brushes from Sonia Kashuk, Sephora, Sigma, and Stila and I am always reaching for this brush. I purchased it when the Studio line was relatively new and my complaint would be that the brush handle is far longer than necessary. However during a recent trip to Target, it looks like the handles have been shortened! This brush tip is firm enough to allow precise application, but not so firm that I can't create the flick at the end of my cat eye looks. Love it and at $3 it's a steal.

i love this brush! i use it for my upper lash line with my elf cream eyeliner. that one came with a brush too, but it was soo small and kinda flimsy so i had a hard time getting that perfect thin line. this brush is amazing and does the job beautifully. i can get that sexy thin line and a dramatic thicker line. The only thing that bothered me at first was that the brush is pretty stiff so its hard to get it in one swoop like i could with the little one, but it just takes getting used to :)

I use this for several purposes:
*) Eyebrow
*) Tightlining - with gel liner, or swipe a pen eyeliner unto the brush before you use it
*) Eyeliner
*) Cat Eye - with eyeshadow and/or gel
*) Lower lash line - use it wet for the wow factor
*) Accentuates the outer V of the eyes
The key is to use it in SHORT, SLOW strokes for precise application. It's firm but not firm enough to use it in one long swipe. But frankly, how many of us are talented enough to do make up in one swipe? .
I've tried high end brushes similar to this one, and I've to say that Elf performs just as well at a fraction of the price.

My HG angled eyeliner brush is a MAC 266 I've had for over a decade, which is still perfect. I use angle brushes a *lot* though, so I like to have a couple around that I don't mind gunking up with mixing mediums. This is not quiiite same as a MAC 266, but for the price and quality I love it almost as much. First of all--it is not scratchy as a 266, which some people will consider a bonus. Try washing it in a 2-1 shampoo if you think it is, but honestly Idk why people are saying that. Secondly, the firmness is ideal for gel lining, which is the main reason i bought it, and said firmness also makes it fairly handy for my brows (though i kind of miss the "scratchy" feel of my MAC when doing my brows, i admit). Thirdly, there is NO shedding--no idea why thats being said either. Finally, when using a mixing medium and shadow, it absolutely is flat enough for lining eyes. The only, minor issue I have is reshaping it post-wash. Mine got bent out of shape due to sloppy handling on my part, and I think it'll be easier to buy a new one than fix it. $3, who cares?
This brush deserves twice the praise the ecotools brush gets, which is way too thick, sloppy, and one of the most useless brushes I've ever bought.
EDIT: knocked this down 2 lippies. No matter how I wash it, the bristles to this brush remain warped. More importantly, I've discovered a better, even cheaper alternative--essence's angled liner brush, which is perfection for gel liners, washes like a dream, dries nearly instantly, and is cheap enough for multiples!
DOUBLE EDIT: i will still praise the essence brush for gel lining. i seriously think any medium that heavy needs a brush that is mildly disposable (yet also performs effectively, efficiently, etc.,) and essence has filled that bill well beyond elf and ecotools. i am still using my MAC for my brows. i suppose i am a creature of habit--but at least now you know.

got this as a cheap brow brush before i splurged on an expensive one. to make the bristles denser i trimmed them with very sharp scissors. works great now! worth the $3.

I am only giving this 2 lippies because the brush sheds. I don't why but this brush sheds a lot whenever you wash it. To add to it, its difficult to use since the handle is too long so when you lean over the mirror to apply it, it comes in the way. The bristles are too firm, they tend to scratch my eye! Not sure if this was a defective batch but it didn't work well.

Scientific name:
Facts: Mayflies are an important part of the diet for many species
of fish. The adults are delicate, soft-bodied insects and range in size
from approximately one quarter inch to over two inches long. When at rest,
the wings are held together over the back. The immature stages develop in
water for a period of a few weeks to a few years, depending on the species
and water conditions. When the last aquatic stage leaves the water, it
molts into a cloudy-winged stage called the subimago. The subimago soon
molts into the true adult or imago stage. This stage has clear wings.
Mayflies are the only insects that molt after they are able to fly.

NBA Betting Guide – January 24
- Updated: January 25, 2012
About a quarter of this year's abbreviated 66-game NBA regular season is already in the books and while most of the preseason favorites are playing true to form, there have also been a couple early surprises from teams that came into this season way under the radar.
This betting guide is designed to provide a weekly snap-shot of which teams are the top performers in the league, not necessarily on the court, but where it matters the most; against the spread.
The biggest surprise of the season continues its run at the top of this list with the Philadelphia 7ers coming in at 12-5 straight-up and a very profitable 12-4-1 against the spread. They bounced-back from a 113-92 loss to Miami as 6.5-point road underdogs this past Saturday with a 103-83 pasting of Washington on Tuesday night as 13-point home favorites. The 76ers lead Boston in the Atlantic Division by 4.5 games, but more impressive is their 8-1 record both SU and ATS at home this season. The Sixers are getting it done on both sides of the court with an offense that is generating an average of 99.9 points a game to go along with a defense that is holding opponents to an average of just 88 points a game. Their +11.94 point margin of victory is the best in the league. Balance is another strong point of this team with seven players scoring in double figures.
The next team on the list is the Denver Nuggets at 12-5 both SU and ATS. They extended their current winning streak to four games with a 119-114 overtime victory over New York as two-point road favorites this past Saturday and are now 4-2 ATS in their last six games. The Nuggets are 6-2 SU at home this season and 5-3 ATS. On the road they are 6-3 SU and a profitable 7-2 ATS. The total has gone 'over' in 10 of their 17 games overall and in seven of their nine games on the road. Denver is currently ranked first in the NBA in scoring with an average of 105.5 points a game. The only downside has been a defensive effort that is giving-up over 100 points a game, but so far this formula has worked. The Nuggets have six players scoring in double figures led by Danilo Gallinari's 17.4 points a game.
The Chicago Bulls not only have the best record in the NBA at 16-3, they have also provided a solid return on investment with a 12-7 record ATS. The Bulls have also won four straight games and nine of their last 10 to open-up a three-game lead over Indiana in the Central Division. They are a perfect 8-0 SU at home and 5-3 ATS, while going 8-3 SU (7-4 ATS) on the road. This has all been accomplished with both Derrick Rose and Luol Deng missing time due to injuries. Rose is back in the lineup, but Deng is out until early February with a hand injury. Chicago is another team with a double-digit scoring differential with an average of 96.8 points a game verses a points-against-average of 85.8. The total has gone an even 9-9 in its first 18 games, but has stayed 'under' in five of the eight games played at home and has gone 'over' in seven of the 11 games on the road.
A few other teams that have been early money makers this season are the defending champion Dallas Mavericks at 11-7 SU and 10-6 ATS, the Oklahoma City Thunder with the second-best record in the NBA at 14-3 SU and a 10-7 record ATS, and the Indiana Pacers at 11-4 SU and 9-6 ATS.
A couple of early drains on the bankroll have been the New York Knicks at 6-10 SU and a dismal 3-13 ATS, the Milwaukee Bucks at 6-10 both SU and ATS, and the Los Angeles Lakers riding a three-game losing streak to fall to 10-8 SU and 7-11 ATS.

A Gorham woman is facing charges after deputies say she broke into her ex-boyfriend's house not once, but twice.
Investigators say the first time Jessica Rossi, 33, burglarized her ex's home on Main Street in the Town of York, she stole a 12 gauge, double barrel shotgun. Officials believe she took the weapon last weekend.
Then, deputies say Rossi went back on Thursday, broke a basement window and stole her ex-boyfriend's dog.
Rossi is facing multiple charges including second degree burglary and fourth degree grand larceny. She was arraigned in York Town Court and remanded to Livingston County Jail on bail. Rossi will return to court at a later date.

Hatchfield Farm plans approved – but MP Matthew Hancock asks Government to step in
Posted: July 09, 2014|
Matthew Hancock says the housing plan for Hatchfield Farm is a matter of "national significance" – and wants the application to be decided by the Government.
The MP for West Suffolk confirmed he plans to ask Eric Pickles, Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, to "call in" the application.
Last week the controversial proposal for a 400-home development on land off Fordham Road was approved by Forest Heath District Council.
Leading figures from the racing industry including Lady Cecil, widow of the late Sir Henry Cecil, joined more than 100 protesters at the meeting, calling for the plans to be rejected.
Now Mr Hancock, a racing fan, has intervened, urging Mr Pickles to look at the application himself.
He said: "The planned housing development on Hatchfield Farm is a matter of national significance to the horseracing industry.
"We should be supporting the racing industry, which employs around 5,000 near Newmarket, and not jeopardise Newmarket's unique status as racing's international home."
Hugh Anderson, managing director of Godolphin, whose stables back onto the proposed development, has joined the call for intervention by Mr Pickles to protect Newmarket's reputation as "an absolute powerhouse of racing and breeding that is the envy of the world".
He said: "Although Godolphin has its own worry about the impact of Hatchfield Farm as a direct neighbour, this is a merely parochial concern in comparison to the overall threat we see to the racing and breeding industry in Newmarket."
He said the councillors' decision was disappointing, given the "growing urbanisation" of Newmarket which was a threat to the town's racing industry which relies on the town's "essentially rural location".
He added: "The Secretary of State will now take a view as to whether this matter should be called in for further inquiry as a matter of national importance.
"We hope that he does reach this conclusion and that the racing industry will have another opportunity to put its case and outline our concerns for the town. For 400 years Newmarket has been a superb location for training and breeding racehorses; we are huge supporters of the town and the racing industry and sincerely hope that it can maintain its status into the future."
A previous application for 1,200 homes on the site was called in and rejected by Mr Pickles in 2012.
A spokeswoman for Lord Derby, who is behind the Hatchfield Farm proposal, said they felt there were "no grounds for the application to be called in".
She added Mr Pickles had already concluded "there would be no adverse impact on the horse-racing industry or adverse traffic impact" in relation to the previous much larger application.
She said: "This development, which is a third of the size, cannot therefore reasonably be deemed to have an adverse impact.
"We would hope that the Secretary of State takes note of the democratic decision taken by the local Council who voted 10-5 in favour of the proposals.
"We have been heartened by the numerous calls and notes of support which we have received from many people within Newmarket since the application was approved."

The Day Kurt Newton Disappeared
"If someone had asked me beforehand how I would have acted," she would say later, "I would have said I'd go to pieces. But something happens to keep you going. You find reserves you didn't know you had. I kept telling myself it wasn't going to do Kurt any good if I wasn't able to function. It seemed that every time I turned around the wardens were pulling Ron out of the woods because I was upset. Finally I said, 'Look, I'll tell you if I need him. But I'm going to cry. There's no way I'm not.' "
She preferred to search on her own with a few friends, "going on gut instincts. I kept thinking I'd find him whimpering behind the next tree." One day she found some holes by the horse hovel that bothered her, one in particular large enough for a child to have crawled through and way down under. Lacking a flashlight, she began clawing at the ground, desperately trying to see in. Looking up, she saw a group of National Guardsmen recently activated to search. " 'I've got to have help,' I said, and three or four of them started digging. I was panicky by then, saying, 'Oh, please, God, he's got to be in there.' And I looked down and this guy crawls out from the hole and he says, 'There's nothing there,' and I said, 'He's got to be,' and he said no and tears rolled down his face."
As days passed and absolutely no trace of Kurt was found, a sense of unreality flooded Jill. "It seemed it was someone else's child, not mine. Not our Kurt," she said. At night, "the worst time," she'd rest fitfully, listening to strangers bellowing her son's name into the dark, and the thoughts crowded in. "If he panicked, if he heard a noise, if anything the noise would have kept him out of the woods, … even if he ran into the woods why haven't we found tracks … he'd surely have taken off his jacket that first day when it warmed up …" and, as always, the questions kept turning because there were no answers. At night she faced terrible thoughts — "How does a four year old face starvation?" but in the morning searchers were buoyed by her dauntless optimism.
"You walk beside people you've never seen before, and they're poking and searching, hunting, and calling his name," she said. "With all this drive and all these volunteers, we're going to find him. And even though he's four, he's very sure-footed. I know he's scared, but I'm still optimistic we'll find him safe." Ron quietly vowed, "I won't give up until they find him."
On the fifth day of the search, the governor of Maine, James Longley, flew to the scene. He promised the Newtons, "Anything in my power I'll do." He called the search, which had moved into the extraordinary stage of a shoulder-to-shoulder combing of more than two thousand acres, "the most impressive experience I've ever had."
The C- 130H aircraft returned and flew another mission, again failing to detect a trace of the lost child. The bloodhounds tried vainly to pick up scent pools, places where Kurt might have lingered, and which under some conditions may last for ten days. The woods search grew so intensive that although Ron Newton twice lost his pen in terrain called by Warden Supervisor John Shaw "the roughest I've searched in nineteen years," it was twice returned.
Psychics from throughout New England offered their help. Later, in frustration, Duane Lewis would say, "One says east, one says north, and another tells us west or south. There's only so many points on the compass." The horse hovel was dismantled, as was the ice house next to the camping office. The dump was bulldozed, and workers sifted through clumps of dirt. Teams of volunteers with shovels dug along the tote road. Finally John Shaw and Duane Lewis, haggard from constant twenty-two hour days, announced they were no longer appealing for volunteers. The search would continue, they said, until Wednesday, September 10, thirteen days after Kurt Newton's disappearance. "We've done just about everything we can think of" they said. "Everywhere you go there's marking tape and our footprints."
The day the search was to end, the governor extended it two more days. "It's the perplexity of the situation," he said. "When you've searched that long and hard. there's always the hope that this time we're going to hit it." It ended officially at dusk on Friday, September 12, in the woods by the dump, with twelve wardens, six state troopers, and seventy-five volunteers making a final, mournful shoulder-to-shoulder sweep. At the end, over three thousand searchers had taken part, and absolutely nothing had been found.
Ron and Jill Newton stayed two more weeks before returning to Manchester to put Kimberly, who had stayed with friends, into the first grade. They began weekend journeys to Chain of Ponds, two people in a woods that might as well have stretched forever. Duane Lewis returned as well, a solitary figure on overgrown tote roads that he hoped might still yield the most elusive tracks of his career. Years later he would be unable to spot a sneaker thrown carelessly on a river bank, or a torn shirt discarded on a roadside, without thinking about Kurt Newton. "Every now and then in the history of mankind the incredible happens that we can't make sense of," he would say. "We should have found him – but we didn't."
The Newtons posted "Missing" signs deep into the woods, warning hunters to report any unusual signs. And then the snow came, and Ron had his snowmobile to take him deeper into the backcountry until winter grew raw and even he was forced to say enough. By then they had decided that Kurt was not in the woods, that he never had been, that somehow he'd been taken and probably was still safe. With the tenacity they had shown from the beginning, Ron and Jill determined that if Kurt were to be found, it was up to them.

Xbox 360
Question from r239238
Why does the system keep messing up the video but not audio(360)?
I have an older xbox 360, around 2008 model. My first problem started with the audio starting but no video. I took it to a guy and paid out $45 to get it fixed. That was in May of 2011. Then in the end of August the picture went out again. Now the guy told me sometimes the xbox runs so quick that the disc sometimes cracks the video chip or some crap. Here's the thing, no one runs around, the xbox is flat and never moves. So anyway in August after I went online and found a way to overheat the system then it would be fixed, and that worked up until 3 weeks ago. Since then I have needed to fix it 3 times and now today I did it 3 times and its still going out. I need a bottom line, is it better to get a new system, is this a problem in any newer systems, or should I just say screw it, PS3 time?
4 years ago
DONT GET PS3. If you have done the "towel trick" numerous times, dont do it anymore. It temporarily fixes your system but in the long run it overheats everything else that is working to the point of not working status, basically frying the whole system. Find a video on youtube that shows how to take it apart, or find someone that knows how to do it, then once your into the innards of the 360 unplug the fan cable from the motherboard, you will know what im talking about when i see it, but if you try this method make sure you grasp the whole plug, not just the cable otherwise you run the risk of ripping out the cable, then you are screwed. Once you do that leave the system on for a good 15 mins or so, then turn it off and wait an equal amount of time, once cool, plug the fan back in then try it. I have done this to my xbox, and my friends and it has worked. BUT it voids the warranty if you open the 360, and im not responsible for any damage you cause! If this still doesnt fix it, just buy a cheap one from gamestop

Because of his arthritis, Butkus takes medication that makes him susceptible to infection. When he expressed concern about having to shake so many hands, he was advised to fist bump instead.
He tried it. Then one day a fan extended his hand as if to shake and didn't see the bump coming.

Southern Illinois Backroads Tourism: In Little Egypt it means bluffs, Superman, even scuba diving
In Little Egypt it means bluffs, Superman, even scuba diving
MARION, Ill. — Years ago urban planners described the heart of Southern Illinois as "metrolakeland," a patchwork of cities of 5,000 to 20,000 connected by four-lane highways and two huge lakes: 7,000-acre Crab Orchard and 19,000-acre Rend.
The Main Street of this region — Illinois 13 from Harrisburg 36 miles west to Carbondale and dissected by Interstate 57 at Marion — is the population base and site of the economic engine: Southern Illinois University at Carbondale.
But if you're looking for Southern Illinois' specialty — backroads tourism — head south on Illinois 1 (or U.S. 45, Interstate 57 or U.S. 51) to the 280,000-acre Shawnee National Forest and surrounding Shawnee Hills.
The forest stretches from the Ohio River on the east to the Mississippi River on the west, a landscape etched with Ozark foothills, caves, horseback riding stables, rockclimbing cliffs, wineries, bed and breakfast cabins and quirky tourist attractions.
You can scuba dive to the sunken fuselage of a 727 jet, ride a ferry boat or river taxi, see a pirate cave, bicycle 47 miles on an abandoned railroad bed, stand atop lofty sandstone bluffs and rock formations, meet reenactors at a frontier fort, dine at a root beer saloon, photograph a winery built like a Tuscan villa or pose — hands on hip — in front of a giant statue of Superman.
That's what Barack Obama did before running for president.
Far from Chicago's skyscrapers and Illinois' prairies, the pointy end of Illinois resembles an arrowhead. As it narrows to a tip, the distance between the two mighty rivers dwindles from 80 to 40 to 20 miles until, at Cairo, you see the Ohio meet the Mississippi.
Locals call this the Land Between the Rivers or "Little Egypt."
One theory suggests northern Illinois settlers came south to buy grain during the poor harvests of the 1830s, similar to Genesis' account of ancient people traveling to Egypt for grain. Later, some Southern Illinois towns adopted Egyptian names such as Cairo, Thebes and Karnak.
The identity only grew after SIU students in 1951 dumped their "Maroons" nickname in favor of sleek Egyptian hunting dogs known as Salukis.
Here in no particular order are our Top 10 Things to See in Little Egypt. There are plenty of others, including the white squirrels of Olney, so don't get mad, just do some research of your own:
1. Mermet Springs: This abandoned spring-fed stone quarry off U.S. 45 north of Metropolis offers recreational scuba diving (15 to 120 feet) in 8.5 acres of water. A jet used in the filming of "U.S. Marshals" is one of the sunken treasures. For $20 a "Try Scuba" session lets you experience breathing under water to see if you want to take scuba certification, but make a reservation. There's kayaking, snorkeling, camping and big fish. National Geographic just visited to do a segment on Mermet's 6-foot-long paddlefish. Information: (618) 527-3483 or visit www.mermetsprings.com online.
2. Superman: In the 1970s the 7,000 residents of Metropolis, across the Ohio from Paducah, Ky.,adopted the super hero. Now there's a Superman museum, souvenirs, cutouts, a chunk of kryptonite, an annual Superman Celebration (June 10-13) and a 15-foot statue of the Man of Steel on Superman Square. On June 11 a bronze statue of Noel Neill will be unveiled; she played newspaper reporter Lois Lane in the Superman TV series in the 1950s and often attends the Superman festival.
Extra: East of downtown is Fort Massac, a replica of an 1800 frontier fort overlooking the Ohio, with displays related to the fort's French and American period and Native Americans; 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, free. Call (618) 524-9321.
3. Tunnel Hill State Trail: For bikers and hikers, it runs 34 miles from Harrisburg to Vienna along an abandoned Norfolk Southern railroad bed and another 13 to Karnak near the Cache River wetlands. A good starting point is Tunnel Hill off U.S. 45 about 22 miles south of Harrisburg; it has parking, a 200-foot railroad tunnel, restrooms and the first of the trail's five railroad trestles. Call (618) 658-2168.
4. Cave-in-Rock ferry: Located where Illinois 1 dead-ends at the Ohio River, the ferry to Kentucky is free. There's the well-known pirate cave and a river bluff cafe and cabins starting at $99 a night; (618) 289-4545.
Extra: From May 11 to late October, the 48-passenger Shawnee Queen River Taxi cruises between Golconda, Cave-in-Rock, Rosiclare and Elizabethtown; $10 for a two-hour ride, $20 for four hours, but make a reservation at (877) 677-6123.
Extra: Elizabethtown has Illinois' oldest operating hotel, the Grand Rose built in 1812 and now a B&B with $127-a-night rooms. Call (877) 711-7088.
5. Horseback riding: There are lots of equestrian camps, especially in the Eddyville area of Pope County. But if you don't own a horse, you can still take guided trail rides at Lake Glendale Stables west of Golconda (hourly and unlimited), Giant City State Park south of Carbondale (rock formations, rustic lodge) or Honey Bee Stables near Cobden's orchards. Contact: Lake Glendale Stables, (618) 949-3737; Giant City, (618) 529-4110; Honey Bee, (618) 638-8059.
6. Jackson Falls: Off Glenn Falls Road in tiny Ozark (Johnson County), this Midwest rock climbing hot spot — in a canyon with 30- to 70-foot walls — has Illinois' largest number of climbing routes featuring slopers, pockets, crimps and jugs. Climbs average 60 feet in height and many are free-standing towers. The nearest convenience store is eight miles away at Ozark Road and U.S. 45.
Extra: Near Ozark is Camp Ondessonk, a popular summer camp for kids. However, after Labor Day, it's open to the public for horseback riding, meals and overnight lodging that includes open-air tree-house cabins ($8 a night).
7. Garden of the Gods: USA Today called this wilderness area one of the 10 great places to photograph rock formations, especially Camel Rock (which will be used on the U.S. Mint's 2016 quarter). Includes an observation trail, camping and more. Follow Illinois 1 south to Karber's Ridge Road an hour or so southwest of Evansville, then head west on Karber's Ridge, watching for signs.
8. Bald Knob Cross: Completed in 1963 as the western hemisphere's largest cross, the 111-foot structure on a hill 1,000 feet above sea level is being renovated to replace the granite base and 900 steel panels covered with a white porcelain veneer. It's west of Alto Pass, a village south of Carbondale via old U.S. 51.
Extra: Alto Pass also is home to the kitchy Northwest Passage & Root Beer Saloon, an emporium with gourmet sandwiches, several micro-draft root beers and a wild decor. Go on a weekend from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call (618) 893-1634.
9. Wine trails: Southern Illinois has two of them — the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail (12 wineries) south/southeast of Carbondale, (618) 967-4006, and the Southern Illinois Wine Trail (six wineries) closer to Vienna, (888) 659-WINE).
Extra: One of the more modern and unusual wineries is Blue Sky, resembling a Tuscan villa with ceiling fans made of windmill blades. Call (618) 985-WINE for directions.
10. San Damiano Retreat, on a 225-foot bluff above the Ohio. It's located west of Rosiclare (near the junction of Illinois 34 and 146) and includes 30 cabins ($68 to $98 a night), walking paths, a chapel and a buffet the first Sunday of every month. Call (800) 716-1558 or visit www.sandamianoretreat.com online.
BOX: For Southern Illinois tourism information, call (800) 248-4373 or visit www.southernmostillinois.com online. You can also call the Southern Illinois Tourism Development office at (888) 998-9397 or visit www.adventureillinois.com online.

Very high on himself and his accomplishments. The final for him was somewhat tricky as he emphasized things he didn't exactly talk about in class. As for Sung, her part was somewhat boring but bearable and the exams were pretty straighforward. Intellectually, the class is pretty boring, but not super hard.

How can I monitor sleep?
I have followed the few directions which appear on the app for SHIe. Now how does it tell me results?
- Asked by Joan H from Ft Myers
Misfit Shine Personal Physical Activity Monitor
Product No Longer Available
3 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
Tap it 3 times when you are in bed. When you start walking again, the item will stop tracking your sleep. At least this is what I observed.
With the current version, it can track whether you are in Light Sleep or Deep Sleep. It will show you a time-based graph showing you when you are in Light Sleep and when you are in Deep Sleep. It also gives you a summary of total number of hours of sleep and total number hours of Deep Sleep. I guess the Deep Sleep Tracking has something to do with your movement in sleep.
I have been wearing it for 3 weeks now and I started noticing that the program is starting to "learn" when I would be going to bed. After synchronization with the App in the morning, it will show you two instances of sleeps - the first is a "projected" sleeping period & the second is the actual sleeping period (taken when you triple-tapped the shine).
But it isn't without any downside - my wife's Shine does not sync as well as mine. It may take her 2~3 times before successfully synchronized sometimes (but after de-linking/re-linking, it seems to sync better this past 1.5 weeks). Another thing is that it does not respond to tapping very well. We often have to give them a few more tries before they react. Also, don't expect it to be highly accurate in tracking steps and calorie burns.
However, we can live with that quite well. I would say both my wife & I love the Shine. We have practically replaced our watches too (it has an interesting way of time-telling). It also gives me motivation to hit my daily target. 4 of 5 Stars product in my opinion - Simple, Nice Design and it works! Though not highly accurate, it is not of any critical importance because it is the motivation that pushes you to walk another KM that counts.
- Answered by Cheung Ting L
1) From the shine app, you need to configure your TAGS, and activate the SLEEP TAG
2) sync your shine with the shine APP, so that your shine now knows that it can toggle between normal monitoring mode and TAG activity mode (which is the sleep TAG that you just configured in step 1)
2) tap on the shine 3 times before you sleep or go to bed, and it will know that you are going to sleep
3) next morning when you wake up, sync your shine with the shine APP, and you will see your previous night's sleep information shown as a box below the daily scores *after* the sync is complete
Note 1: no need to tap to get out of SLEEP activity mode.
Note 2: every time you fire up your shine app, it will sync automatically with your shine, no need to place it on the screen anymore.
- Answered by Kui Yu C
Misfit have upgraded the app in the last month to automatically recognise sleep now, so no need to triple tap any longer. You can now use the triple tap for a secondary regular activity. As mentioned by others the results for your sleep are synched to your app and you can see what time you went to sleep, the length of that sleep and deep sleep versus light sleep.

Civil servants protest near the Parliament in Beirut, Tuesday, April 15, 2014. (The Daily Star/Hasan Shaaban)
The quest for parliamentary endorsement of a new salary scale for Lebanon's teachers and public workers looks likely to continue for another few weeks, as a committee of MPs studies the matter.
For the most part, the debate isn't over the legitimacy of the labor demands being expressed, but over how the increase can be funded. The responsibility for passing the legislation is particularly critical at a time when public finances are in no position to take on further burdens. The only way to proceed is by relying on a solid plan to raise revenues in exchange for hiking state expenditures.
One obvious way is to slightly increase the VAT, bearing in mind that critics of this step usually forget that a number of basic commodities are exempt from VAT in the first place. This group of exempt items may even be expanded to ensure that lower-income people aren't hurt by the VAT rise.
Another problem that must be addressed is the situation of Electricite du Liban, one of the biggest drains on public finances. There is little use in trying to improve the socio-economic situation of tens of thousands of people if there is no attempt to fix the long-standing drain on the economy, namely the underperformance and state subsidies lavished on EDL.
Also, the public sector's productivity level must be addressed, by increasing the number of hours in the 32-hour work week and eliminating the phenomenon of people receiving paychecks without even showing up to work in the first place.
Lebanese society deserves the new salary scale. But if the state doesn't move ahead with meaningful reforms, economic stagnation will result and society will end up paying the price down the road.
