Make e-mail your ally to enhance the way you market and sell products and services over the Internet, writes this technological entrepreneur. As you turn to e-commerce, turn first to e-mail to develop a list of potential customers who also want to hear from you, get the word out about your offerings, and eventually customize your pitches for individual buyers, the author advises. Just avoid the big e-mail no-no: spamming.
Going global takes guts, the author asserts. You have to confront the unknown and make it look easy when it's not.
Doing business in the rough-and-tumble arena of underdeveloped countries involves adhering to global business basics, such as researching markets thoroughly, while coping with surprises, writes a veteran international entrepreneur who first took his company overseas three decades ago. In entering the "emerging markets," entrepreneurs need to keep close tabs on how (and if) they will be paid, as well as on local managers overly eager to make sales.
Giving back to the community-and engaging one-on-one with charitable operatives, the press, and other local constituencies-enables small businesses to increase exposure at little cost, says the founder of a national moving franchiser.
At the 2012 Health Innovation Summit, entrepreneurs offered advice to medical companies for designing successful new health apps and devices.

Cam bolts stripping.
In the past I have had problems with the Allen part of the cam bolts rounding off.
So when I remove the bolts I make sure that my Allen tools are high quality with no ware.
But that didn't help me this time.
This is the second time that I have checked the valve clearance on my SE. This time I wanted to record the shim sizes so I could plan ahead for when I might have to change a shim.
I was using a brand new Allen tool. I held the ratchet head in place. But the Allen head stripped out anyway. The bolt didn't move from its factory setting.
So now I have a few months to figure out how to remove the bolt.
It really seems that the 950 cam bolts are unacceptably soft.
Sounds like you need to make a custom allen wrench. That's probably the best way to get out the bad one too. Take the next size up, grind each edge until you have to hit it to go in. Is there room to put the socket on an impact driver? Impact drivers are the only way to go for phillips and allen fasteners.
Metric allen wrenches?
Yeah...somethings wrong here?? I have not heard of this issue before. What size and brand of tool are you using??
I wanted to remove my caps and then I noticed that I would have the same problem.
So my plan is to have a friend help me. As I am torquing on the bolt to loosen it up I will have him use a long punch of some type and rap it with a hammer.
I have been putting this off a very long time but I know that some day I will have to tackle it.
I use a new metric tool each time. The tool fits about as good as one can hope for. That is why this brothers me so much. Those bolts just don't seem hard enough.
I like the idea of tapping it with punch. Anything that would get it going would be a big help.
From what I have seen of air impact drivers leaves me to think that that is not the answer.
this is what you need, you will then need a 1/2 to 3/8 adapter and a 3/8 drive allen
hand held impact drivers work wonders on soft and over tightened or locktited fasteners
instead of rapping it with a hammer and punch this directs the hammer force directly onto the fastener
Will it fit in where you need to use it?
Take it easy when tightening these fasteners folks. They only require 10nm/18nm.
The factory or dealer tightened the bolts.
Given that I have had plenty of cam bolts start to strip even when I followed the torque spec.
Oh and lastly I never use ball tipped allens on these bolts. Only the stright ones.
Lets face it these bolts are crap.
I have thought about one of these tools. I think that I will start using it to loosen the bolts. The location of the stripped bolt was the one bolt that I could have used it on. The frame is in the way of most bolts.
Now If I can only figure out a way to get that stripped one out.
cheese or apeshit?
Since I've removed these fasteners on other LC8's dozens of times without a problem, I'm leaning toward some gorilla going apeshit tightening them last time. Butt, nevertheless, the old parts need to come out so you can install new. Have you thought of something along this line?
I am not sure what that is.
Is it some type of bolt remover?
It's similar to an EZ-Out bolt extractor. Maybe one of the sizes will fit the rounded out hex recess.
Me too
I just did the valves on my 950 Adventure and sure as shitte, I had one of the cam bolt heads start to strip on me. I did manage to get it out with no problems. I took the cam bolt to the hardware store and they matched it with a new bolt. The only difference was the size of the allen head, the new one was larger and felt more secure when tightening to spec. I have ordered a few replacement bolts online and next time I do the valves I will replace the bolt. I suspect it was the angle of attack that caused the problem in the first place. There is not much room to work on a few of those bolts. Next time I will know better. But I have to agree, the bolts did seem pretty damn soft, all things considered.

Originally written on Fox Sports West | Last updated 3/2/13
PEORIA, Ariz. (AP) -- Chris Capuano had problems with home runs for the second straight start. Trying to earn a job in the Los Angeles Dodgers' rotation, Capuano allowed long balls to Mike Zunino and Franklin Gutierrez during a three-run third inning Saturday in a 9-5 loss to the Seattle Mariners. Capuano started with two perfect innings that included three strikeouts before Zunino homered leading off the third. In a rotation led by Clayton Kershaw, additions Zach Greinke and Hyun-Jin Ryu, and Josh Beckett, Capuano is competing with Aaron Harang and Ted Lilly. "I don't worry about getting a spot in that rotation," Capuano said. "It doesn't change what I do or how I go about my business. I'm going to get my work in, and I'm going to compete hard in every game. Ultimate decisions aren't up aren't up to us as players, and it doesn't behoove us to pay attention to the process of making them." The 34-year-old left-hander was 12-12 with a 3.72 ERA in 33 starts last year. He has allow...

Hotels in Colombia
Even during the worst periods of unrest in Colombia, Cartagena remained a draw for travelers who came to explore this colonial town by the sea. As a result, you'll find Colombia hotels have the greatest range of options for leisure travelers here. These include El Marqués, in the heart of the Old Town, which has the feel of a meticulously restored colonial home with ornate wooden balconies overlooking lush courtyards, stone floors, and wooden furniture. The seven-room Tcherassi Hotel & Spa makes many lists of the best hotels in Colombia. Designer Silvia Tcherassi took a colonial mansion and gave it a hip makeover with a funky, eclectic, and always playful, décor. The Sofitel in Cartagena is a larger and more traditional resort, though half the property was built inside a converted monastery making it one of the more atmospheric Sofitels in the world.
Hotels in Colombia outside of Cartagena include properties more focused on business travelers in Bogota and Medellin, which the countryside is also dotted with converted haciendas and finas, or plantations, that range from elegantly charming to simply rustic.
This 102-room property is well situated near the city's art galleries.
This small, chic, and stylish hotel let's guests sleep under frescoed ceilings, then wake to take their breakfast in the lush, columned courtyard. Opened in 2007, the stately upstairs rooms are furnished with 19th-century antiques that smell like beeswax.
Colombian designer Silvia Tcherassi converted a Spanish-colonial mansion in the Old City of this walled colonial hot spot into a cool, white-on-white urban escape.
Stay in this small, stylish, and private hotel complete with frescoed-ceilings. The rooms are filled with dark antiques and soft white bedding.
The privacy at this a complex of 19 brightly painted bungalows fronting a secluded stretch of Colombia's Caribbean Riviera has made it popular among Latin American celebrities such as pop star Shakira and model Natalia París.
This 121-room luxury hotel, the Old City's first, is carved from the shell of a 17th-century convent in the quiet San Diego neighborhood.
In Cartagena's cobblestoned Old Town, El Marqués Hotel still feels like an old colonial home.
Top among the city's many new downtown properties is the 24-suite Anandá Hotel Boutique, a quiet retreat in a restored Spanish-colonial building with carved-wood balconies and three breezy roof terraces.
The 43-room property occupies a pair of elegantly restored Republican-era town houses.
Book one of the five rooms at the hotel or its custom-made bamboo and teak South Asian furniture and impressive collection of art (including two pieces by Keith Haring).
Travelers in the know are once again flocking to Cartagena for its architecture, beaches, and white-hot nightlife.

TAMPA, FL - SEPTEMBER 12: Rookie quarterback Colt McCoy of the Cleveland Browns warms up just prior to the start of the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium on September 12, 2010 in Tampa, Florida. (Photo by J. Meric/Getty Images)
A person familiar with the deal says the Cleveland Browns have traded quarterback Colt McCoy to San Francisco. McCoy, who started 21 games for the Browns in three seasons, has been sent to the 49ers for a late-round draft pick, said the person who spoke Monday to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the teams have not yet announced the trade. McCoy became expendable last week when the Browns signed veteran backup Jason Campbell, who is expected to challenge Brandon Weeden for the starting job. CBSSports.com was first to report the deal. The Browns selected McCoy in third round of the 2010 draft. He played in eight games as a rookie and started 13 in 2011 before his season was ended by a concussion. McCoy went 6-15 as a starter.

Diarrhea is described as an increase in the frequency of bowel
movements or a decrease in the consistency of stools that causes the discharge
of watery, loose stools. The severity of diarrhea is determined by the size and
number of stools passed within a period of time.
Severe diarrhea has many causes. Stomach flu (gastroenteritis) or
food poisoning may cause severe diarrhea. Drinking
untreated water that contains the Giardia lamblia parasite can cause diarrhea that develops 1 to
4 weeks later.
Severe diarrhea increases your risk of
dehydration by causing your body to lose large amounts
of fluid quickly. Be sure to increase your intake of fluids, such as
water or a
rehydration drink, and to watch for symptoms of
Persistent diarrhea can have many causes, including dietary changes,
irritable bowel syndrome, and certain
medicines. Occasionally, persistent diarrhea can be a
symptom of a more serious condition, such as a chronic infection,
inflammatory bowel disease, a
malabsorption syndrome, or
colorectal cancer.

Stuffing stockings for children
Andy Marlatt and her friends at Lakes of Parkway Women's Club help Child Advocates make children's holidays a little brighter

Andy Marlatt spends all year collecting items to place in stockings for children from Child Advocates. They fill nearly 800 stockings each year.

How to help
Child Advocates
The Houston chapter of Child Advocates always needs volunteers. Learn more at childadvocates.org/volunteer.
Each Dec. 26, many people breathe a sigh of relief for surviving the holiday season. But Andy Marlatt is in the aisles of area stores, piling toys into her basket. She is the brain and heart behind a program for Houston's Child Advocates that delivers more than 1,000 stockings to children in need, a project that takes an entire year to prepare.
Marlatt, with the help of her Lakes of Parkway Women's Club, otherwise known as her "elves," took on the project in 2003.
"That first year was really chaotic and random, but we managed to do around 100 stockings," she said. "Now our program has grown to where we provide stockings for all 1,200 children that are in Child Advocates."
Each year her group fills roughly 800 stockings; organizations that have offered to help provide the others. The group partners with a church, a Girl Scout troop and a national charity league teen group.
The project has expanded throughout her neighborhood. The women have organized a holiday market benefiting the effort, matching the percentage of profits vendors donate to the cause. Last year they hosted a home tour.
"Just the act of being kind to people has ignited something in other folks so they can do the same thing," Marlatt said. "One young girl in the neighborhood, whose birthday is in December, told her mother that instead of getting birthday presents, she would like people to bring a stocking for Child Advocates. She has been doing that for at least five years."
Marlatt shops for for post-holiday sale items that can be used as Christmas gifts. She acknowledges her hauls have drawn attention.
"I was at Target this past December buying all of these stockings, and the cashier was like, 'What is it that you're working on?' " Marlatt said. "So I told her about our project, and she starts crying, and she said, 'I was abused as a child, and I had to be taken away from my parents, and I know what a great thing this is that you're doing.'
"You never know where you're going to find somebody whose heart you're going to touch," she said.
Stores have cut Marlatt deals when managers hear about her project.
"When we just did this for Valentine's, we went to Wal-Mart and talked to a manager, and I told him what our project was, and they sold me each of these for 50 cents - and some of these were $9 toys," she said. "I took it to other Wal-Marts, and they all did the same thing."
Marlatt, a Groves native, has lived in Houston since graduating from Lamar University. She was an executive for a health-care company for 27 years before retiring in 2000.
Marlatt also volunteers for a tutoring program started by her club at Alief's Petrosky Elementary. Since November, the group has grown from six tutors to 12. They visit the school weekly to help students with math and reading.
"What I love about our stuff here is that we are so grass roots," she said. "There is no big structure; there is no corporate structure.
"When you think about the power of one and just starting something, the work is very rewarding. We happened to find the right niche for us with the stockings. I would just encourage other people to just do something."

Texans embracing preseason changes to kicking game
Jon Weeks' job will barely change. Randy Bullock is up for the challenge. Bill O'Brien is intrigued by it all. That's the takeaway from the biggest alteration in NFL rules heading into the 2014 season, with goalpost uprights five feet taller and extra-point attempts moved back from the 2 to the 15-yard line.

Special teams players put in extra work to fix kicking issues
Special teams coach Joe Marciano, punter/holder Shane Lechler and snapper Jon Weeks put in extra work with struggling kicker Randy Bullock this week. The Texans hope the increased detail turns around a disappointing 1-for-5 start on field-goal attempts for their first-year kicker. "He's fine. He kicked good (Thursday)," Kubiak said.

Why is Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End rated PG-13?
Official MPAA Rating: Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End is rated PG-13 for for intense sequences of action/adventure violence and some frightening images.
Swordplay, guns and cannons permeate the screen in this swashbuckling adventure, making violence the greatest concern for parents who are trying to decide if their child is ready for this high seas adventure. Many characters are shot, with some blood shown (including gunshots to the head). Multiple characters are impaled with swords (this includes depictions of blades penetrating their bodies and protruding out the other side). Other violence ranges from one-on-one fisticuffs to grand encounters between ships. The later results in cannons blasting and dozens of secondary characters being killed and tossed into the sea. An opening scene shows the hanging of many people who oppose the government (although the actual point of death is not shown, piles of bodies are loaded on carts and taken away). Sexual content is limited to a few low-cut dresses and a married couple's implied encounter. Language consists of a couple of mild expletives and name-calling. Alcohol use is limited to only two short scenes in this episode.

HGO special events director Guyla Pircher dies
By Molly Glentzer | June 27, 2012 | Updated: June 29, 2012 12:12pm
Photo By gary fountainGuyla Pircher on Feb. 8, 2012, in Houston
Photo By Nick de la TorreGuyla Pircher-Harris of the Houston Grand Opera talks about what she thinks of fashion stating the smile is the most important thing to have Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2009, in Houston. ( Nick de la Torre / Chronicle )
Houston Grand Opera special events director Guyla Pircher, a consummate professional also known for her distinctive fashion sensibility, died Wednesday. She was 58.
HGO chief advancement officer Greg Robertson said Pircher had an inoperable brain tumor. "She was a joy to work with as a colleague and a friend," Robertson said. "She believed the quality of your work was a reflection of the kind of person you were."
Many of the opera's events are held year after year, but with Pircher, none of them were ever "cookie cutter," Robertson said. As a result, the company more than doubled the money it raised from events such as the Opera Ball and the Night of Arias during Pircher's seven years there. The most recent, the 2012 ball chaired by Cynthia and Anthony Petrello in April, raised $2 million.
"Special events provide a window for people to view the opera ... and provide opportunities to recruit new people into the opera family," Robertson said. "Guyla always asked how we could make each one unique, different and better than the year before."
Pircher had a special ability to handle everyone behind the scenes, from patrons to event coordinators and volunteers, he added. "There's a really fine line between kissin' and kickin'. With such an engaging personality she made everybody comfortable."
Before joining HGO in 2005, Pircher worked as a party planner and personal assistant for Cherie Flores. Earlier in her career, she was a buyer for retail stores including Foley's.
In a 2010 style interview with the Chronicle, Pircher said not smiling was the biggest fashion mistake a woman could make.
"I think (not smiling) ruins an outfit," Pircher said. "It ruins your face, your makeup, everything. If you are going to go out, you're going to attend an event, have fun. Life's too short."
Her husband, Boyd Harris, emailed friends shortly after her death asking them to raise a glass to her at 12:25 the next day. "The time is special because Guyla thought that every day should be like Christmas," Harris wrote.
Pircher also is survived by a sister. Following her wishes, no public services are planned, but remembrances can be made in Pircher's name to Houston Grand Opera and the Brookwood Community.

Ribbon Organization

Ribbon Organization by Jeanie Cheeseman, Columbus. OH
I work a lot with narrow satin ribbon of all colors. The individual spools can be annoying to keep up with when your hands are already full with the craft you are working on. To organize these spools, I take a regular wire hanger, untwist the top, string each spool (grouped by color) through the hole on the wire and re-twist the wire top. Ribbon ends should roll off the spools in the same direction and be attached to the spools with a straight pin or tape. It is convenient to use and can easily be stored by the hook top of the hanger.
Pantyhose Ribbon Holder by Shara George Lynnwood, Washington
I use a lot of ribbon in most of my crafts and we all know how difficult it can be to keep all that ribbon on the spool. One of the neatest things I've discovered for my ribbon is to cut off the legs of pantyhose and put the spools in them. One will hold as many as you like and they will not unwind as the hose snugs up against the spool. You can see the color you want and reach down the inside of the hose and get it very easy. IT'S GREAT!

I use alot of various width ribbon and although on a dowel looks nice it can be a real pain to get to a center spool to remove the spool for travel or replacement. lengths of rain gutter can work well, but my favorite is old wire book shelves with v shaped shelves. They hold any size spool and ribbon can be removed easily or unwound without removing.

My thoughts on organizing ribbon is to get yourself a spring loaded curtain rod and load your ribbon on it, all facing the same direction and you can use as many as you like . Maybe one for reds and one for yellows and one for pinks and maybe one for seasonal. You can put them in a closet or on a window on top of your curtains or shades.. You can use your imagination the possibilities are endless.. Think about it.. Have FUN, FUN, FUN... From Debbi in Lodi, NJ

A Stitch Away
Feb 18, 2011
if your room has windows, you can use a spring rod to organize your ribbon. It usually the right size for the rolls to fit onto. But if you have the some that won't fit, I will snip the hole with scissors large enough for it to fit.

This is such a great ideal. I have loads of all kinds of ribbons. Thanks. Extra thought; for skinny bibbon, use a hook to reach through the stocking and pull the ribbon out. Notice I have not tried this yet, but it should work.

Whamodyne Glass Speakers - traditional electronics in a unique new form
Image of 8 - Use your left and right arrow keys to navigate the gallery
Article Summary
If, like me, you've often wondered what would happen if you took a diamond drill to a glass vase and then fed in some audio - the answer we've been looking for takes the shape of the Glass Speakers from Whamodyne. A set of Logitech S120 computer speakers have been stripped apart, the components forced into a pair of glass vases, each of which have then been mounted at a slight tilt on a hand-made birch plywood base. They're not as powerful or as slick as the precious-looking GLA-55 touch-sensitive speakers from Harman Kardon, but they are about a tenth of the price.

When my 20 days are gone I should have lots more time to focus on my own mod (Dominance).
Hopefully to get closer to release, make it more the mod others can appreciate, and to learn more in graphics. But until then, silence, and me counting down the days.

Thanks to everyone who found this (what I'd thought was forgotten) post and played the game! Not that the numbers are huge, but you can likely imagine my surprise when I decided to check my Google Play download numbers and found that I'd had the same amount of downloads in one day compared to what I'd got over the previous month combined.
ErgoMeSmart's forum posts
Just ordered mine. Annoyingly the ship price jumped like $9 between the purchase screen and the actual purchase, but eh, I'll take the hit for what looks like an awesome shirt!
I think it's pretty humble to charge so little for a product, AAA or not.
Exactly. Plus, if you want your really indie bundles for cheap, there's always Indie Royale or Indie Gala instead.
1. The pace for cars tend to vary between the race and qualifying, as some cars are fast over one lap and slow over a 70-lap race, and vice versa. As mentioned above, Mercedes haven't been very good on tyres in races, so they weren't expected to pull it off for the race.
2. Qualifying is spilt into three sections. The slowest 6 of the 22 cars is knocked out after the first 20 minute section and have their grid places 'locked in'. The same goes for the 6 slowest of the 16 cars left in the second 15 minute section. The final 10 minute section makes up the top 10 places, and as Mark Webber didn't bother to do a time for this section, he was placed 10th.
3. Cars tend to be very similar, with the only differences being the quality of the engineering and who makes their engines. It tends to happen that one team works out a way to find a loophole in the rules though, and thus gets well ahead until it's banned the following season. For the past few seasons, that's been Red Bull.
4. You can only block the car behind once a lap, I think. Even then you can't move across the track too fast, otherwise you risk being called for 'dangerous driving' and being given a penalty.
5. As far as I'm aware the DRS system just doesn't work outside the area it's allowed to work in due to an automated system. That system has been known to break or not turned on however, at which point it's up to the drivers to not use it outside of that area or get a penalty. This happened to Alonso in the last race actually, and Ferrari (the team he races for) were given a 15k Euro fine as a result. As for knowing when it's allowed, there's a timing gate at a point on the track, and if the car behind is closer than a second, then DRS can be activated.
6. The switch between tyres is actually forced in the rules. Both sets of tyres for the race have to be used (unless it's a wet race), in order to force teams to pit. This also forces teams to use the harder, slower tyre at some point in the race, which can give drivers behind on pass if they happen to be on the faster 'soft' tyres, which do not last as long.
8. If a car cuts a corner and passes another car, they are usually forced to let the other car back past. If the car in front cuts the corner (usually to avoid a crash with the car behind trying to overtake) and stays ahead, then usually no action is taken.
10. 1st 25, 2nd 18, 3rd 15, 4th 12, 5th 10, 6th 8, 7th 6, 8th 4, 9th 2 and 10th 1.
Hope that helps!

Yep, same thing happened to me. Somewhat ruined the moment where you're meant to feel bad for killing her when she was about to do the same to you.

-Left in the RV
-Told the truth to Leland
-Bonnie, Shel, Russel, Wyatt, and Becca left with Tavia. Vince stayed behind. Which is unfortunate because Vince was my favorite.
I did the same. Don't fully understand why Vince stayed behind in mine though, as he seemed to be coming round to going with her. Maybe the game doesn't allow a full group to go to the larger community?
As for play order, I went:
- Vince (Day 2)
- Shel (Day 236-259)
- Bonnie (Day 220)
- Wyatt (Day 41)
- Russel (Day 184)
Some opinions (in spoiler text, just to play it safe):
The Vince storyline was pretty good, and it was a bit of a shame to leave Justin behind. He was a dick, but not enough of one to let him bleed out with one foot. Doesn't seem like it 'mattered' like much anyway, as Danny wasn't at the camp.
The Shel storyline was likely my favourite, personally. Also, guard zombies?! Mental idea, but it seemed to work for them.
Lobster hands, of course. A snake tongue I can't control? Sod that!
Turns out I suck at Rock, Paper, Scissors. Did manage to cause a draw three times in a row though, which the game actually reacted to in a quite amusing way.
Nate was a solid ten out of ten nutjob, that's for sure.
Also, the fact that Venyon taking the boat caused their group to collapse gave me a little chuckle, I have to admit.
Speaking of which. Do people still play Awesomenaughts on 360?
I haven't played it on the 360 in about 6 months, but it was pretty much dead back then. You're likely better off going with the much more active (and much more updated) PC version.
Awesome. Finally an excuse to buy a long HDMI and hook up to my TV too.
This is an idiot's guide to Steam Greenlight, to hopefully answer some of the commonly asked questions about the service and maybe present it to people who may have not heard of it previously.
What the hell is Steam Greenlight?
Put simply, it's a service for people to try and get games onto Steam. Users of Steam then vote for games they like, and if the game gets enough votes it might get onto Steam.
Finally! I'm off to submit Half Life 3 and Minecraft to finally get them on Steam!
No. You can only submit games you own the rights to onto Steam Greenlight. So no trying to submit Modern Warfare 4 or Red Dead Redemption.
Will 'big' games have to go through Greenlight?
No. Greenlight is pretty much only for 'smaller' indie developers to try and get onto Steam. Bigger developers still go direct to Valve.
Do I get to play the games on the service for free?
No. You can't play any of the games on Greenlight through Steam, only vote for them. You can of course play the games if they are on other services such as iOS, Android, Desura, Indie City or XBLIG.
I've made a game. Can I submit it to Greenlight?
Of course. It'll cost you $100 though.
$100?! That's a rip-off!
The $100 fee is to keep out fake submissions from people who didn't know the answer to the second point, with all of the money going to Child's Play, so Valve don't actually make any money from it.
The $100 fee is also a one-off fee per developer, not per game. So once you've paid your $100, you're welcome to submit as much as you like.
Of course, there's a bit of a debate about this fee, but that's a post for another day...
But $100 sounds like a lot! Is that more than other services?
Compared to other major PC services, that's about, oh, $100 more. Both Desura and Indie City allow you to put your game on their service for free, but of course take a cut of every sale.
Comparing with other platforms though, a one-off $100 fee is quite cheap, with both iOS and XBLIG being $100 a year to publish on those platforms. Android is a little better though, with only a one-off $25 fee to get onto Google Play.
OK, fine, I've paid the $100. How many votes do I need to get onto Steam?
Nobody knows. Even Valve are still working on what the number of votes needed will be.
Do the downvotes counter the upvotes?
Nope. Downvotes simply hide the game from the person who downvoted it.
Once I get the amount of votes needed am I certain to get onto Steam?
Even then it isn't certain. Valve still reserve the right to still reject games from getting onto Steam even if they reach the number of votes needed.
Have I missed a point or got something completely wrong? Feel free to post it in the comments!

Informed Wildness: Jenny Lou Sherburne's Art of Living and Making
Schultz, Katey, Ceramics Art & Perception
"I REALLY DID FALL IN LOVE WITH CLAY," SAYS CERAMIC ARTIST Jenny Lou Sherburne of her first apprenticeship nearly 30 years ago. "Something takes over and you feel like you've found the answers to all of life's questions in craft. I knew I wanted to make each piece expressive and I had to figure out what I wanted to express. What I discovered was humor, joy and growth. It all boils down to pots." (1) Working from her studio high in the Appalachian Mountains of the Southeastern US, Sherburne's enthusiasm this many years later has hardly waned.
The artist makes goblets, pitchers, mugs, stacked vases, teapots, window box sets and larger vessels that are ornate almost to the point of absurdity. Many of her forms seem to teeter and tempt gravity by way of long balanced gestures and reaching lines. As a whole, her body of work suggests a sort of informed wildness, a life lived with flare but never at the cost of life itself, or a planet abundant with growth yet always with an awareness of the balance necessary for survival. Sherburne's telltale forms indicate the artist's infatuation with the human experience. We are at once pushing and striving, leaning and reaching into the world and what it has to offer. At the same time, we fear falling over, a loss of control, clash and confusion or over-stimulation.
Sherburne's work risks all of this in the best possible way--even as she points out that "the clay always reminds me that reality is malleable and in that sense, it forces me to question my assumptions". (2) In the end, it is the functionality of each piece that tempers her design. A piece can only be stacked so high, reach so far or withstand so many layers. A handle can only wind and curl to a point, after which it will no longer function as a handle. "The control in my work is paramount but it's disguised. There is a lot to consider--balance, dryness, plasticity ... It also has something to do with time. In our culture, time is valuable and I think that might be picked up on in my work, even subconsciously. My work takes more time than the average production potter's because it does more than just function and you can tell that by looking at it." (3)
Initially, Sherburne was "most cataclysmically attracted to prehistoric Minoan wares from Crete, with their swelling bellies, small feet, beautifully curvaceous patterning and brushstrokes, the elegance of Song Dynasty pots, the colors and patterns of Persian pots, and the beautiful painting of Italian majolica". (4) As she expanded her studies, lived in different places, and started a family, her influences honed to a biographical aesthetic that seems to provoke the viewer with its boldness, simultaneously feeding the artist with its honesty.
Sherburne completed her graduate studies in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, an environment rich in culture, color, celebration and exotic wildlife. "Baton Rouge was almost claustrophobic in its floral excess. I've definitely incorporated that excess into my work," says Sherburne. …

Need a middle name!
Hello, I've been looking for ages for a middle name for my character, Sierra Wren, but I can't seem to find something I like. Her sister is Emmy Rosalie Wren if that helps in anyway. I know it may seem silly giving a character a middle name, but I just like to, so if anyone has any ideas, it would be really helpful Thanks

Hello everyone, hope life is treating you well.
I plan on buying an iPHONE 4, but I'm unsure what to do with my current one. I think I heard once it is turned off, it will act like a touch, but I am unsure. I was also thinking of adding a line, and using my new one, and giving my old one to my Mom, but I'm not sure if that works with ATT.
Can I transfer my current number to my new phone, and have a new number issued to my old one?

Messed up xorg windows with "nvidia" AND "nv". GeForceGo6400-related?

Messed up xorg windows with "nvidia" AND "nv". GeForceGo6400-related?
after 15 minutes of xorg uptime, the content of firefox, kdvi or acrobat reader windows become garbled in the strangest ways with bright colors and mess. This happens with "nv" and "nvidia" on my fully patched and updated SuSE9.3 Vaio VGN-FS315H Laptop with nVidia GeForce Go 6400 with TurboCache.
Without going much into details, can such a problem (if it happens with "nv" and with "nvidia") be driver related? Can it be that maybe Linux doesn't treat the shared memory (TurboCache) of the graphics card correctly? Because sometimes kdvi displays stuff in strangest colors that has been there correctly seconds ago, so maybe some old memory fragments get into the video memory or something? (glxgears and that seems to work with fine framerates.)
(Note: The problem usually happens with the inside of some windows first. Switching to console and back removes the problem for 10 minutes. then it starts happening again.)
So, am I right searching for clues right here or should I go to xorg. Dunno. I'm a bit frustrated and clueless with the issue right now.
Thanks for your comments, Johannes.

Menopause Health Center
Oct. 5, 2007 -- Menopausal symptoms dim the sex lives of many women, according to a new online survey.
Murray Freedman, MD, and colleagues from the Medical College of Georgia evaluated the survey, which was conducted by Harris Interactive in late June and early July. They presented their findings yesterday in Dallas at the North American Menopause Society.
More than 1,000 women aged 35 and older completed the survey. The women indicated that they were nearing menopause, currently going through menopause, or were postmenopausal.
Most of the women -- 81% -- reported menopausal symptoms. Nearly 60% of those women noted vaginal symptoms (vaginal dryness, pain during sex, vaginal narrowing, or vaginal shrinkage) or increased urinary tract infections.
Among women reporting vaginal narrowing or vaginal shrinkage (known medically as vaginal atrophy), 88% indicated that they found that symptom to be "at least somewhat problematic," 78% said it affected their sex life, and 47% said they had stopped or avoided sex because of physical discomfort.
The study was funded by the menopause education group Red Hot Mamas and Duramed Pharmaceuticals, which makes the estrogen drug Enjuvia for menopausal symptoms.

NAACP president kicks off state conference in Corpus Christi with impassioned speech at Heritage Park
CORPUS CHRISTI - The fight for equality in America has never been more urgent, the president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People told a Corpus Christi crowd Thursday night.
Voter rights are under attack in many states as lawmakers seek amendments to steer minority groups from the polls, Benjamin Todd Jealous said.
"We ask ourselves, 'My God, are we going back to where we were?' " Jealous said.
His speech served as the kickoff to the group's 76th annual state conference this weekend in the Coastal Bend.
It will feature national and state civil rights leaders discussing a variety of topics including political, health, environmental and religious issues.
A day before flying to an event across the country, Jealous praised Texans for continuing to push for voting rights equality and against political redistricting, and touched briefly on the case being heard by the Supreme Court involving the University of Texas' use of race in college admissions.
Much work remains, he said, as other states introduce legislation aimed at keeping former inmates or those without proper identification from voting in what Jealous called an attack on minority groups and the young.
He praised gathered organization members for serving as an example of champions of equality to future generations.
"Our children need to see us fighting for their future," he said. "They deserve to live in a country where the clock only moves forward."
State and city leaders also praised the organization's efforts Thursday during the kickoff party held at the Heritage Park square.
"Since 1909 the NAACP has been doing God's work, fighting for justice and civil rights," Corpus Christi Police Chief Floyd Simpson said.
The city's first black police chief, Simpson said the impact of his post does not escape him.
"I would not have been here without the support of organizations like this," he added.
The conference's image features Texans of all races gathered together for a photo during the early part of the past century. It's a scene Corpus Christi chapter president Terry Mills said is reflected in the conference's opening theme — "We Are Still Standing."
"Look around you," Mills said gazing into the crowd. "Diversity works."
Other speakers Thursday night included John Sharp, chancellor of the Texas A&M University System, and Wilmerine Howard, 98, a lifetime member of the NAACP.
The state conference continues through Saturday at the Omni Bayfront Hotel with youth events, banquets and political forums planned.

Press release from PR Newswire
Emmy® Award-Winning Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar Joins March of Dimes and Sanofi Pasteur on the Sounds of Pertussis® Campaign
Wednesday, June 05, 2013
Emmy® Award-Winning Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar Joins March of Dimes and Sanofi Pasteur on the Sounds of Pertussis® Campaign08:00 EDT Wednesday, June 05, 2013
Campaign Continues to Educate Adults on How to Help Protect Themselves and How to Help Stop the Spread of Pertussis to Infants
-- The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that America is currently experiencing the largest outbreak of reported pertussis cases in 50 years
-- The Breathing Room, the Campaign's new Facebook application, helps parents encourage family and friends to get the adult pertussis vaccine
SWIFTWATER, Pa. and WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., June 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Actress and mother of two Sarah Michelle Gellar is joining March of Dimes and Sanofi Pasteur on the Sounds of Pertussis® Campaign to help raise awareness about pertussis, also known as whooping cough, and the importance of adult vaccination. Pertussis is on the rise across the U.S., and infants and young children may be most vulnerable.
To view the multimedia content associated with this release, please click: http://www.multivu.com/players/English/61367-sanofi-pasteur-sounds-of-pertussis/
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130605/MM10877)
"The reality is that parents, grandparents and other family members may unknowingly spread pertussis to the babies in their lives," said Sarah Michelle Gellar. "That's why I was vaccinated and so was my family to help protect ourselves and to help stop the spread of the disease to my two children. Now, as the National Sounds of Pertussis Campaign Ambassador I'm urging adults everywhere to do the same."
Pertussis is a highly contagious and often serious disease, especially in young children. In 2012, there were more than 41,000 reported pertussis cases and 18 deaths in the U.S., with more than 83 percent of deaths occurring in infants younger than 12 months of age. Infants are particularly vulnerable to pertussis because they don't begin receiving their own vaccinations until they are two months old and may not be protected until they have received at least three doses of the infant DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus and acellular pertussis) vaccine. Researchers found that in cases where it could be determined how an infant caught pertussis, family members were responsible for spreading the disease to the baby up to 80 percent of the time. More specifically, parents were responsible up to 50 percent of the time.
"Immunity from early childhood pertussis vaccinations wears off after about five to 10 years, meaning even adults who were immunized as children may no longer be protected," said Siobhan M. Dolan, M.D., medical advisor to March of Dimes. "The best way for adults to help protect themselves and to help prevent the spread of the disease is to ensure they are vaccinated."
Gellar is encouraging parents of infants everywhere to use the Campaign's new Facebook application ? the Breathing Room ? that allows parents to send a brief message to family and friends in their Facebook network asking them to make the pledge to be vaccinated against pertussis before meeting the newborn in their life. Parents can personalize their own Breathing Room and help keep track of who in their child's circle of care has been, or pledges to be, vaccinated against this potentially fatal disease by populating their baby's virtual nursery with pictures of their family and friends from their Facebook network.

About PertussisPertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a highly contagious and often serious disease, especially in young children. In adolescents and adults it is usually presented as a severe cough that may last for weeks and even months. Pertussis is caused by bacteria called Bordetella pertussis, found in the mouth, nose and throat of the person with the disease; it is spread through contact with respiratory droplets generated when that person coughs or sneezes. Pertussis disease can be treated with antibiotics. If caught early enough, antibiotic treatment may help lessen disease severity. Antibiotic therapy also helps reduce transmission and is important for disease control.
About the Sounds of Pertussis® CampaignThe Sounds of Pertussis® Campaign is a national education campaign from March of Dimes and Sanofi Pasteur to help raise awareness about the potential dangers of pertussis, also known as whooping cough, and the importance of adult tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccination.
Started in 2009, the Campaign continues to help educate parents, grandparents, caregivers and others in close contact with infants about the importance of getting vaccinated with the adult Tdap vaccine to help protect themselves and to help stop the spread of the disease to infants.
About March of DimesMarch of Dimes is the leading nonprofit organization for pregnancy and baby health. With chapters nationwide and its premier event, March for Babies®, March of Dimes works to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth and infant mortality.

2001 Ford Excursion • 240,000 miles
A few weeks back I had a major issue with my brakes and power steering. As I was pulling into a parking lot, the brakes seemed to "lock" and I could barely turn my steering wheel. After taking to the mechanic shop, I was told the hydroboost and the steering pump both needed replacing. We had both replaced but since I have done that the brakes just don't act right. Not every time I brake, but every time I drive the vehicle, when coming to a complete stop, the brakes tend to "lock" for a brief period followed by "hum" sound that sounds like some sort of release? I was worried they might have put the wrong part for the hydroboost on my vehicle. Any ideas what could be the problem? Thank you for your help!

Obama jokes with White House correspondents
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 04/28/2013 @ 1:28 am In Diversions,Politics,U.S. | No Comments
(ABC News) President Barack Obama joked Saturday about his plans for a radical second-term evolution from a "strapping young Muslim Socialist" to retiree golfer, all with a new hairstyle like first lady Michelle's.
Obama used this year's annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner to poke fun at himself and some of his political adversaries, asking if it was still possible to be brought down a peg after 4½ years as commander-in-chief.
Entering to the rap track "All I Do Is Win" by DJ Khaled, Obama joked about how re-election would allow him to unleash a radical agenda. But then he showed a picture of himself golfing on a mock magazine cover of "Senior Leisure."
