Over the past few months I put quite a bit of work in to sprucing up the ol' Manhunter from Mars's page; it looks like that work may be lost.
I first noticed a few days ago that the page was coming up blank except for one line under "Creation." Currently it is closer to where I had left it about a month ago, but still missing big chunks of edits, notably an analysis of the character's development over the years and a summary of how his weakness to fire has been portrayed over the years.
Can anyone point to why this was done? Was it some kind of error? I think both of the missing sections I mentioned were in keeping with the style guide, certainly more than the some what rambling story arc section, which, now that I look at it, is all under the Origin heading...something is definitely up.
Can the mods access previous saves and restore it to it's more Style Guide friendly form?

Xwing Infinity
I mean, they have a ton of badass exclusives for their platform coming down the pipe (Phantasy Star Online 2, The Witcher 3, Cyberpunk 2077, just to name a few), and any time a game comes out as console only, they go batshit insane. It's like those people who pitch a fit over Halo only being on Microsoft consoles, or Mario games only being on Nintendo consoles. Exclusivity happens man, it's part of life, it's part of having a competitive marketplace. If you want a game bad enough, go buy the platform, if not, be happy with what you've got. What is the point of complaining about it?
ToastedBacon2/23/2013 5:05:41 PM PermalinkI like consoles better simply because it's 10000000000x easier to set up a private match.
ifarted692/19/2013 6:47:20 AM Permalinkum yeah ive never heard someone complain and whine that halo isnt on pc. sure ive seen people ask but they dont cry about it. haha could you imagine if gta 5 was pc only i bet the console gamers would be pretty pissed. so gta pc players have a point there because gta is part of pc
rex2Edited by rex2: 2/18/2013 11:42:02 PM PermalinkSimple: the gaming industry gravitates towards the money. The money is in mobile platforms and consoles due to ease of entry. The PC platform is the furthest from being consumer friendly (let's be frank, you must be [i]at least[/i] a little tech savvy in some way to be a PC gamer). As a result, the PC platform receives many games which are clearly not catered to the platform (be it due to controls, FOV, graphic settings, etc). Of course, Steam has done an excellent job of bringing down the barrier of entry to PC gaming (workshop, Big Picture, etc), and looking into the future, I think Steam + PC gaming will definitely offer people who are yet to experience PC gaming a very compelling alternative to next Xbox/PS4. But in the end, it's all about the games. No point in limiting yourself to one platform if the games you want to play are not on that platform.
Darcsyde2/19/2013 3:37:45 AM PermalinkI blame this shitty new breed of PC gamers; people who have only joined the "master race" recently and have started acting like arrogant dickheads. PCs have and will always be the best gaming platform, but it seems normal to want to hate on console gamers nowadays despite nothing being provoked. I don't even think sticking to one platform is a good idea anyway, I own a good PC, PS3, Wii, Vita, and a 3DS. To primarily console gamers I say this, don't generalize us all, PC gamers are by and large a mature friendly playerbase. And to PC gamers, drop the "master race" shit if you haven't already, it's stupid.
OliG2/19/2013 8:37:51 AM PermalinkI'm on both. I very much enjoy both. I game for fun, and I find FPS's online so much more comfortable with a controller. But on a PC you will just get slaughtered. Or owned by try hards who just spent £800 on a PC and then spend their life on it. Graphics don't make for fun gameplay, and I find proud PC gamers a very big problem currently faced by humanity. They ignore and twist facts and truths, such as the BUT STEAM R CHEEPER argument. Fanboys of anything suck. PC ones are just more vocal because they are all obsessed with their computers.
mikefishrEdited by mikefishr: 2/19/2013 6:52:45 AM PermalinkAs someone who plays both PC games and console games, I see benefit in both platforms. I also think that complaining about what platform a game comes out on is ridiculous. You can be upset about a game being platform-exclusive, but as Xwing said, it is part of having a competitive marketplace. If all games were platform-agnostic, there would be little incentive for people to buy one console over the other. Business is business, and sometimes the best business choice is not the best choice in the eyes of certain consumers. They have the right to be upset, but to be annoying about they feel simply paints a bad image for PC gamers in general.
D3thN1gh72/19/2013 6:39:37 AM PermalinkI primarily play my games on PC but I too hate "proud pc gamers" who think consoles are disgusting and they won't even talk to people who play on consoles. To me, those people are idiots. I have a gaming PC but also own a PS3 and spend quite a bit of time on it as well enjoying games I can't get for the PC platform. To me, whatever you prefer playing on that's what you should play on. And anyone who holds anything against you for it are dumb. Real "gamers" enjoy games on any platform.
BritishLemön2/19/2013 4:33:09 AM Permalink[quote]I absolutely despise PC elitists.

[quote]Cyberpunk 2077[/quote]That isn't a PC exclusive, it's also on next-gen consoles too.
doctor woot2/19/2013 5:09:20 AM PermalinkA better question would be why are console players such pussies.
EL1TE SUPR3MACY2/18/2013 4:40:25 PM Permalink[quote]It's like those people who pitch a fit over Halo only being on Microsoft consoles, or Mario games only being on Nintendo consoles. Exclusivity happens man, it's part of life, it's part of having a competitive marketplace.[/quote] I feel like the main issue here is that Destiny is not exclusive to just one console. Halo was bound to the Xbox because of the agreement between Bungie and Microsoft. Mario is a Nintendo exclusive because it was made by Nintendo itself. You'll notice that Destiny is coming out for both Xbox and Playstation, so it's not "exclusive" to one section of the market because there's no real restrictions being placed on how Bungie can market the game. I don't think Activision would hold them back from creating a PC port, as we've seen from their previous publications they're more than welcome to the idea of having a game sell on every front. Anyway, the point of complaining about it is to show Bungie that there is an interest from the PC market for their game, which they [b]CAN[/b] do if they pull their resources and actually attempt to do so.
About 7 fish2/18/2013 4:45:35 PM PermalinkThe problem is that ports tend to be god awful which is a slap in the face when you have the best hardware. For every Devil May Cry 4, there's a dozen... well, Devil May Cry 3's.
TheRealSteel2/18/2013 6:04:46 PM PermalinkThe Witcher 3 isn't an exclusive, and I don't think Cyberpunk is either. Outside of RTS/Strategy games, the PC has very few big budget exclusives these days. Though the number of console exclusives are dropping too.
ModalTongueLow2/18/2013 9:27:26 PM PermalinkI'm pretty sure console gamers whine more in game chat than anyone else in general
BerzerkCommando2/19/2013 1:31:48 AM Permalink[quote]Phantasy Star Online 2.[/quote] It's not an exclusive: -iOS. -Android. -PlayStation Vita.

tchuron2/19/2013 12:30:56 AM PermalinkThe thing about the PC's have better graphics + performance argument is that it's not true on many PCs. I play a lot of games on my PC, but I don't think I've ever had a PC game that my computer could play as smoothly as a console without every graphical setting on low, and even then lot's of the time they're still pretty clunky. Part of that is because I play on a laptop instead of a desktop. I also don't want to put any money or time into upgrading my computer so it can run games better. That's also true for many other people when it comes to games for PC. If you have a console that runs well and can play a game smoothly, why spend extra to getyour PC to do the same?
Destiny Bacon2/18/2013 11:00:50 PM PermalinkBecause they spent hundreds on something a console can do and they are desperate to justify their purchase.
Lord Commissar2/18/2013 10:19:04 PM Permalink[quote]I Exclusivity happens[/quote] 1. Destiny isn't exclusive 2. How will they know that there's a significant interest in Destiny within the PC gaming community if they never say anything?
Conster 1102/18/2013 11:28:15 PM PermalinkIMO, there are Pros and Cons for PC and Gaming Consoles. PC's provide better graphics and performance in game, and have more in depth controls sometimes and mods are more freely available etc, whilst Consoles have a standardised feel to them, everybody has a level playing field of the same gear (okay, things like headsets nowadays etc are different but nevertheless) and the controller is an easier way to play. I prefer PC, I spent £1100 on my PC and I'm glad with the purchase, however I do also have a 360 and play 360 exclusives on it (ie when I can't use the PC). I really don't care for platform elitism though.

Our first game was on a Saturday and I didn't order them until Thursday. I didn't want to pay extra for priority shipping, so I just ordered regular shipping and hoped they would arrive in time for our 2nd game. To my surprise, they arrived at my door the very next day and in time for opening day.
The representative who took my order was very polite and made sure the order was accurate.

Remember Me
Tishamingo is swampwise. It's as simple as that. One of the
most remarkable things about this band is that they suffer not the lopsided
dimension of singular writing. Three of these cats write the lyrics and that
makes for a multifaceted perspective that many bands are not so lucky in commandeering.
What's more, two of them have been easily vaulted by their gifts into the lofty
embrace of fellow southern singers that very few can call familiar territory.
Cameron Williams has a voice that really shines in its grizzled truth
on this album and he is very much at home with Gregg Allman and John Bell on
the front porch. Furthermore, his guitar plays perfectly with Jess Franklin's
and together they have a heavy double-barreled blues voice that howls.
As for Jess, well his guitar is way on out there in its greatness
and his message cuts deep to my roots and can even wake a slumberin' bear to
action with the tickling breeze of his luminous truth. That is something that
not many folks have in livin' music. Stephen Spivey seems at home bein'
the grand master o' thump on the bass. He just sews it all up as a real bassist
should and his style makes me grin real wide. Now Richard Proctor is
responsible for some of the more memorable stories on the disc and his keen
sense of rhythm and textured power are enough to reanimate even the coldest
heart. He shines on the kit throughout the entire album.
"People See" captures something remarkable in its shuffle and
bounce. It just makes you want to get up and kick up some dirt, throwin' elbows
and stompin' about.
Now nothing says high-octane country like pedal steel, and John
Keane's use of it on "Way Back Home" helps the band in makin' it a beautiful
song. It lifts your heart up and floats it down the river on an inner tube under
the hot sun. The vocals and backing lines really make this one of the most remarkable
songs I have heard in awhile. It has a sweetly lilting sound and an otherworldly
jazzed-up flow to the guitars and the faint bird-calls are a sweet touch.
"Palmer March" is a beautiful lullaby. The organ of Jason Fuller really helps that song go places. When folks bring that much out of the music it makes your heart resonate with joy and celebration.
"Tradition" follows quickly on the marching heels with a very slow sway to it. That song has soulshine written all over it. That song makes me shed tears of joy and hope, makin' me remember a place I hold dear to my heart. It picks you up and shuttles you across a dusty pasture, bouncin' in the seat of a love tractor. The slide is what it's all about. It just screams with the other guitar and that is something magical to hear.
"Little Red" chimes in at a good round of 4 minutes and 20 seconds and has this twang to it that wrinkles my ears with a shiver. That song could have been played back in the days of Robert Johnson, the keeper of the crossroads, and it would have been just as good then.
"Turry & The Tellico Militia" is what grassroots music is all about. The pedal steel, the bluegrass jangle, and a story sung with purpose. The French Broad River is something only a small group of intrepid folks know about and Richard's reference to it in the story really speaks well of what the meaning of Southern Culture really is. It's a feelin' that is really captured throughout that song.
The song that stands out particularly for its intense and remarkable
sound is "Last Ride." It has this Latin vibe to it and it thrives on its deep
and powerful groove. Reminds me of canopy roads with a head full of medicine.
One word of caution though; "The First of the Day" will knock you flat on your
ass if you have any clue about what's funny in this dream we call the great
These fellas have heritage and they listened to the music
of their home in the South. They heard everything and that is sometimes what
it takes to tell the best story. With that alone you can build upon something
that you can count on as family. We just need to remember to go find someone
with some tradition. These kind folks can show you the way to Tishamingo.
It's closer than you think.

gotamas or titans?
gotamas or titans?
Elias Littenberg
Gotamas. Flat set-up instead of a system ski. More versatile with the twin-tip and way more agile for trees and technical descents. The Titan reminds me of stock car racing; way fast and fun as long as you're not turning much.

Not a great solution, but you could use a micro usb cable instead the USB 3 cable. Won't be usb 3 speeds, but the drive will mount.
I had similar problems trying to mount, access and format drives over USB3 on my rMBP. I had thought the drives were dead. After reading this forum and trying a different cable (eSata to USB3) to the same port, the drives worked fine. Strangely the same "faulty" cable works on my old MBP.
I am having the same problem with multiple usb 3.0 drives not transferring at the superspeed rate. I was about to return the drive today, but noticed other people are having the same problem. After plugging and replugging the drive in, swapping the cables and rebooting, it is now registering as Superspeed 3.0. There is no rhyme or reason as to why it is now working, but someone suggested that if the first device you plug into your MBP after rebooting is a USB 2.0 device, then both ports will only register as USB 2.0. I believe this may be true.
HI Guys,
I have checked with WD support team and said that the Passport essential does not support Mountain lion or 10.8.2 and later.
I have my imp info in my WD 1TB Passport USB 3.0.
Any tips and tricks, please let me know.

Out of the discussion on my other thread on pitchers came the possibility of the Reds spending money on an OF next season. Obviously, this signing would be contingent on the possible trade of Adam Dunn or Ken Griffey, along with the end of Milton's contract.
Assuming the Reds have around $22 million to play with, here's a partial list of players who could be out there:
Bobby Abreu
Milton Bradley
Eric Byrnes
Jose Cruz, Jr.
Mike Cameron
Jermaine Dye
Darin Erstad
Cliff Floyd
Shawn Green
Jose Guillen
Torii Hunter
Kenny Lofton
Trot Nixon
Corey Patterson
Aaron Rowand
Shannon Stewart
Ichiro Suzuki
Brad Wilkerson
Rondell White
There are a few players that are clearly out of the Reds' range (Ichiro comes to mind here) or off their list (probably Guillen and Bradley). There are also a lot of them I can see Wayne making a play for, including Hunter, Byrnes, and Rowand in particular. All three can play a solid center field and provide a RH bat for the order (I think Rowand is a switch hitter).
In any case, I would assume the Reds would be looking for around a 3-year contract--just enough time to smooth the transition between what we currently have and the arrival of the next generation (Bruce, Stubbs, etc.)
What say you?

Don't look for a boilerplate story or predictable characters in Becky Masterman's surprising second mystery, Fear the Darkness. There's no letdown after Masterman's first book, the Edgar Award finalist Rage Against the Dying. Her extraordinary heroine, 59-year-old FBI retiree Brigid Quinn, is front and center for a second time in this surprising thriller.
Make your reservations now for a European tour like you've never experienced. Amy's Travel has planned a clever caper that puts its participants literally on the road to solving a tantalizing murder mystery. It's all fun and games until the riddle turns out to mirror a real-life murder. As competing teams scurry from Monte Carlo to Corsica, from Rome to Siena, hidden hints both bewilder them and spur them on to the next destination as they try hilariously to work out the Clue-style murder mystery.
The members of the Last Death Club are kicking the bucket one by one, some of them practically under the nose of irascible Victorian detective Sidney Grice, in The Curse of the House of Foskett. It's the second book in M.R.C. Kasasian's intriguing new series that debuted in 2014 with The Mangle Street Murders, featuring Grice and his young ward, March Middleton, who narrates the books in a most unusual fashion.
The first book in a new crime series, Winter at the Door introduces Lizzie Snow, a Boston cop turned police chief, now ensconced in the remote town of Bearkill in northern Maine's Aroostook County, which runs right up against the Canadian border. Bearkill barely manages the necessities with a supermarket, Laundromat, luncheonette and corner bar appropriately named Area 51.
This month's best new mysteries include a detainment on an island paradise, an English historical, a twin investigation in the French Carribean and a dark thriller.
The eccentric and purposeful Lady Lavinia Truelove enters her stables early in the morning, unseen by her peers, where she plans to subdue and ride the erratic, untamable Lucifer. She'll show her husband that she's a horsewoman to be reckoned with, as well as two sights higher than the woman she thinks may be capturing her husband's eye.
Forty Days without Shadow, by French journalist Olivier Truc, is set in the remote Lapland of northern Norway, where reindeer are the only livelihood for indigenous Sami herders who brave the dark, Arctic winters to keep vigil over their animals, and where the old ways—even ritualized murder—can still hold sway.
In this, the 11th of Christopher Fowler's superb Peculiar Crimes Unit mysteries, it's clearer than ever that the real hero of the series is London herself. If you've never visited the city, you could ask for no better education—or pressing invitation—than the one you'll receive by reading the entire series. Fowler not only tells delightfully lurid tales of both famous and well-hidden landmarks, but also provides clear warnings about neighborhoods you should avoid (after all, these are murder mysteries).

An Ichiro deal continues to draw closer
Dec 12, 2012, 9:05 AM EDT
The Zeno's paradox of free agent deals — Ichiro's imminent deal with the Yankees — continues to draw closer, everyone is saying. The distance to the target has been cut in half again:
#Yankees know they are signing Ichiro, decision is 1 yr, 1 yr with vesting option or 2-yr deal.
— Joel Sherman (@Joelsherman1) December 12, 2012
At any given time the deal is not yet struck, yet it always grows closer. Like the Antelope Freeway on the Firesign Theater's second album.
Yet another contract by the Yankees that will not necessarily commit them to anything beyond 2013. Which, sure, in this case makes sense as it does in Kevin Youkilis' case and Hiroki Kuroda's. But it is certainly going to make for an interesting season and 2013-14 offseason for Brian Cashman.
- lazlosother - Dec 12, 2012 at 9:18 AM
Well, as they don't plan on re-signing Nick Danger I guess Ichiro will have to do. I think next offseason goes like this one, one year stop-gap deals. It's the after the 2014 season where things will really get interesting, especially if they get under the cap in '14.
- proudlycanadian - Dec 12, 2012 at 9:29 AM
Last season, he resurrected his career while playing against the Jays. I hope that the Yankees let him sit out several games against the Jays this year.
- sabathiawouldbegoodattheeighthtoo - Dec 12, 2012 at 10:35 AM
Lots of guys padded their stats against last year's Jays pitching. Just a little bit of luck and health should greatly improve that aspect of their team, plus some reinforcements from the south.
- dirtyharry1971 - Dec 13, 2012 at 1:01 AM
and i hope you get the window seat in the nursing home, not cause i like you but because i feel bad for you
- uyf1950 - Dec 12, 2012 at 9:55 AM
I like the idea of potentially giving Ichiro a 2 year deal, of course it depends on the dollars. Just my opinion but if the Yankees do sign Ichiro for 2 years I think you can scratch Granderson from the Yankees roster for 2014 and he will probably be gone this year, maybe before spring training. There might be some legs to those "rumors" that said the Yankees were entertaining trading Granderson.
- cackalackyank - Dec 12, 2012 at 10:29 AM
I would LOVE to see Granderson go, but I don't think a 2 year deal is in the realm of possibility for anyone this year, and maybe next year too. I think lazlo may have a point about the 14-15 off season though, depends on how Williams, Sanchez etc. develop.

Hi, among all those big rigs on the shelf a medium-size truck makes a nice contrast.
I used the well-known Monogram F-1 pickup and the AMT C-600 as a basis. Originally intended as a quick change of pace between two larger projects this build turned out to be rather time-consuming:
- Numerous modifications were necessary to adjust the modern C-600 chassis
- The cab fenders had to be widened and the wheel openings had to be adjusted.
- Because of the wider fenders I had to make a new grille
- Running boards and bumper were different from the pickup and had to be replaced by self-made parts
- The contemporary steel spoke wheels had to be scratchbuilt
- The making of the oval milk tank required some pondering

Cold War
Thirteen Days in Autumn
The end of October and beginning of November in 1956 was a period of climatic events throughout the world. On the 31st of October, France, Britain, and Israel moved against Egypt over the Suez, in a confrontation which threatened to engulf the Middle East. The United States was gearing up towards a presidential election on the 6th of November. Sharing the international scene at this time was the small country of Hungary. On the 23rd of October, a student led demonstration of Hungarian support for Polands national regime burgeoned into a revolt against Hungarys Soviet oppressors. For thirteen days in October and November, Hungary cast off its Russian shroud, only to be forcibly crushed on November 4th. The people of the West were bombarded with images and scenes of the Hungarian revolution: photographs of jubilant Hungarians flying flags of Kossuth with gaping holes where the Soviet emblem once was, Hungarians of all ages wielding Molotov cocktails and antiquated rifles against Soviet tanks, the streets of Budapest littered with bodies. In the years following the Hungarian tragedy, historians, authors, and journalists saddled the Western powers, and especially the United States with a burden of guilt and shame for what has been deemed the betrayal of the "anti-Communist revolution in Hungary." George Urban, author of The Nineteen Days: A Broadcasters account of the Hungarian Revolution, writes: Abhorrence and pious obituaries cannot exonerate the Western leaders, and, above all, the American President, from the guilt from which they rightly suffer: that of not having tried." (159) This legacy too was conveyed by the images of the media, via dramatic pleas for help of the Hungarian radio, stinging political cartoons, and photographs of thousands of Hungarian refugees. While Urban writes truthfully that the West did not try, the West is not wholly deserving of the blame for the end in Budapest. The Hungarian Revolution of 1956, a national uprising against its Soviet occupiers, was falsely portrayed as an anti-Communist revolution primarily by Western radio stations such as the British Broadcasting Corporation, the Voice of America, and Radio Free Europe. This is evidenced by an examination of the roots of the Hungarian uprising, its development within the Hungarian masses and government, and the actions of the mentioned radio stations throughout the crisis.
On the 23rd of October, several weeks of student unrest in the capital city of Budapest culminated into open demonstration. To demonstrate their support for Wladyslaw Gomulkas new national Polish regime, the students led a march to the statue of the Polish general Josef Bem, a hero from the Hungarian revolt of 1848. Joined by workers returning to their homes, the students march for Poland grew into a city wide demonstration against the stringent Soviet controlled government led by Erno Gero. Words quickly grew into actions. The citys sixty foot statue of Stalin was razed and broken up in the streets. Citizens gathered at the Parliament Building to hear the progressive Imre Nagy speak. They also gathered at the Radio Budapest building, where late in the night the Allam-Vedelmi Osztaly (AVO) the Hungarian secret police fired the first shots of the crisis into the crowd.
Accompanying the demonstration, the students plastered the city with fliers reading their sixteen demands of the Gero government. They read:
(Gadney, 20-21 )
The students demands reveal several fundament aspects of the Hungarian Revolution. First are the points pertaining to change within the political system of Hungary. The desired changes were liberal, but it no way anti-Communist. The second, third, fourth and fifth demands sought the purification of the Communist party via popular elections, and the replacement of the Soviet-controlled leaders with Hungarian chosen leaders. The selection of Imre Nagy as the new premier illustrates the loyalty to Communism of the students. A man of moderation who favored reform and less hostile government, Nagy was nonetheless a staunch Communist. The remainder of the political demands outlined some of the desired reforms, such as freedom of thought and expression.
This comprises only six of the sixteen demands. The remainder of the demands focused on the topics of the economy and nationalism. Between 1945 and 1956, the Hungarian economy was disastrous. Inflation reached extremely high levels; scarcity of food was frequent. The Hungarians perceived much of their economic suffering as a result of their subordinate relationship with the Soviet Union. In the post war years, the USSR had procured form Hungary nearly twice the war reparations originally levied, as well as key holdings in important Hungarian industries, especially uranium. (Urban, 244) Demands seven through ten sought to rectify the Hungarian economy by putting Hungary on equal terms with the Soviet Union and by gaining control of Hungarian resources.
The remainder of the demands posted on the 23 of October dealt with issues of Hungarian nationalism. A fiercely nationalistic people who claim a thousand year heritage, the Hungarians sought to rid their country of the pervasive presence of the Soviet Union. The most significant demands ordered the removal of all Soviet troops from Hungarian soil; others were as trivial as the demand for national holidays or more Hungarian Army uniforms. At any rate, the Hungarian demands illustrate that the roots of the uprising were more complex than purely political issues, and that the political issues of the revolution sought to maintain a Communist system.
The Communist sentiments of the Hungarians is further illustrated in a quote by Istvan Angyal. Angyal was a leader of the rebels on Tuzolto Street near the Killian Barracks. Prior to his execution in 1958, he wrote:
We felt that the party should put itself at the helm of the Revolution so that all could see that the people were fighting for socialism. Socialism wanted to be fought for Had it occurred thus, we could have fought with united effort for the basic achievements of socialism, the nationalization of banks, businesses, and factories, and the land reform. (Litvan 70)
Angyal was very clear in his support for the goals of the Communist party, insisting that the party should have played a even greater role in the Revolution. It is important in the analysis of this quote to consider to what extent Angyals views represent the views of most Hungarians. As a leader and apparent intellectual, it is likely that Angyal was to some extent a greater ideologue than the typical Hungarian rebel. This does not invalidate his quote as representational though. It is the leaders and intellectuals who hold the ear of government.
Gyorgy Litvan, the author who used this source, writes that the majority of Hungarians did not support Angyals view. His evidence is the failure of the appointment of Imre Nagy to prime minister, and thus placement of a reform Communist at the forefront, to stop the fighting. (70) Litvans interpretation of this evidence is incorrect. It shows lack of consideration of all the issues at the root of the Revolution, that is, political, economic, and national. While the appointment of Imre Nagy to the ministry was a positive step, it was not the fulfillment of all the fighters demands. Thus the fighting continued.
In the early morning hours of the 24th, Soviet tanks in infantry moved into Budapest to quell the Hungarians. For the next five days, poorly armed revolutionaries battled Soviet tanks with Molotov cocktails, hand grenades and rifles and won. During this fighting between the 23rd and the 28th the Revolution transformed. What had primarily begun as an uprising against the Hungarian government and its totalitarian grasp on the state, a sort of Communist v. Communist war, developed into a struggle for Hungarys independence from the Soviet state. The previous nationalist demands had blossomed into the central issue of the Revolution. After the 28th, the Hungarians sought no only their fulfillment of their previous demands, but the removal of all Soviet troops from Hungary, Hungarys withdrawal from the Warsaw Pact, and a declaration of neutrality. (Litvan 72)
Even with the "nationalization" of their Revolution, the Hungarians goals did not undergo an enormous shift. The same political, economic, and nationalist goals remained present in the discourse of the rebels. This maintenance is illustrated in a Resolution of the Workers Council of Miskolc and Borsod County dated the 25 of October. The removal of leaders from the Rakosi era, socialism according to "the interest of the Hungarian working class and the Hungarian nation," the revision of economic plans, the declaration of Hungarian national holidays; all are present. (Daniels 170) This helps to show that the Revolution remained consistent to its roots as it expanded to include the expulsion of the Soviets, and the declaration of Hungarian neutrality.
To this point, the focus of this paper has been on the examination of the sound Communist foundation that lay at the roots of the revolution, and were maintained throughout. Now the part of Western radio stations in the false portrayal of the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 as an fight for Western anti-Communist ideology will be examined.
The world of mass media began to take off in 1950s. Yet in 1956, television was still in its infant stages in the United States, and thus even less developed in the Soviet satellites. Radio was the only way medium of mass communication. It played an especially prominent role during the Hungarian revolution. Both before and during the Revolution, the radio was the primary source of information for Hungarians. In an American survey of Hungarian refugees in Austria, 75% claimed that foreign radio was their primary source for news on Hungarian events, and 80% said it was their source for news outside of Hungary. (Urban 247)
Hungarians of course were not tuning in to broadcasts in the Western powers themselves, but rather special Hungarian broadcasts out of West Germany and Austria. The most significant of these radio stations were the British Broadcasting Company (BBC), the Voice of America, and Radio Free Europe. The most objective of these was the BBC, an independent broadcasting firm. Radio Free Europe, broadcasting from Munich, and the Voice of America were somewhat less objective, as their names indicate. A fairly accurate description of the two would be a cross between a news service and a propaganda source. It the case of Radio Free Europe, it was a private organization will vast financial and technological resources, but under no direct United States control; both transmitted nearly round the clock. (Urban 271)
These Western operated radio stations were horribly misinformed and out of touch with the situation in Hungary. This is evidenced by the writings of radio station employees and actual radio broadcasts. George R. Urban, a broadcaster with Radio Free Europe throughout much of the Cold War, wrote The Nineteen Days, and book chronicling the Hungarian crisis from a broadcasters perspective. Throughout his work, Urban continually refers to the Hungarian Revolution as "anti-Communist"the anti-Communist uprising, the anti-Communist freedom fighters. (78) In view of the Communist roots of the uprising, Urban shows a lack of understanding of the situation in Hungary.
The same ignorance of the Hungarian situation is also evident in broadcasts during the revolution. On the 28th of October 1956, the BBC announced, "What they know just as keenly is that the Hungarian people have proclaimed that tyranny is not irresistible, that the Communist lie has not been allowed to prevail over the human spirit .Hungary has shown beyond any shadow of doubt that Communism is a broken creed." (Urban, 138) It quite true that the Hungarians proclaimed tyranny as resistible, it was the "Communist lie" and the "broken creed" of Communism for which they fought. An especially flagrant example of the ignorance of the Western radio stations was their criticism of Imre Nagy. Shortly after Nagy was made prime minister on the 24th, the BBC both suggested that the uprising in Hungary would overthrow Communism as well as criticized Nagy for being under the influence of the Soviet Army and "Muscovite Communist on the Politbureau." (Urban, 76) While Nagy may not have met every expectation of the Hungarians, he was still their choice to lead the new government.
The misrepresentation of the Hungarian Revolution by Western radio stations is due to the influence of their political agenda, rather than ignorance or oversight. Returning to Urbans The Nineteen Days, it is quite clear from his descriptions of the goals and aims of Western media, that radio knowingly and willingly sought to uplift the Hungarian crisis to the desired level of anti-Communist revolution. As put by the Assistant Head of the BBC Central European Service, "It was our job to follow the uprising, not to lead it, but at the same time it was not for us to set limits to the aims of the Hungarian uprising, and certainly not to underbid them from London." The cautious tone of this double-talk is somewhat revealing of the nature of the BBC. However, Urban continues to admit an even more specific agenda for Radio Free Europe. He writes, " there was the task of showing that Hungarys war for liberty was our war in the sense that it had dealt a blow to the Communist Parties in the free world from which they might never recover." (Urban, 136,138.)

What if...
Hi there... Hmmmm...about me.... I'm not hot or gorgeous. I don't have an amazing figure or super flat stomach. I'm far from being considered a model but, I'm me. I eat food, have curves lol, love my jeans and ball cap, and I love my PJ's and sometimes going without makeup. I'm random and crazy. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not. I'm Happy with who I am and where my life is at. My life has been hard, but I've learned a lot of wonderful life lessons. I've learned to be a good and understanding person. Now add all that with my wonderfully twisted sense of humor and my love for sarcasm and you've got me....errr..at least a start. As for what I'm lookin for...someone who walks his talk. Someone who understands that happiness is a choice. It seems so many people on this site are 50 shades of bitter or jaded...dating and finding someone that you can call your own is supposed to be fun and exciting. Right??? If you agree... I'd love to hear from you. Tish I'm not a member anymore so I can't read any emails

(Helen) Violet Bonham Carter (née Asquith), Baroness Asquith of Yarnbury (1887-1969), President of the Liberal Party Organisation; wife of Sir Maurice Bonham Carter; daughter of Herbert Asquith
Sitter associated with 31 portraits
The daughter of prime minister Herbert Asquith, she married her father's principal private secretary, Sir Maurice Bonham Carter, in 1915. She was president of the Women's Liberal Federation and was active in a number of anti-fascist groups in the 1930s. After the war, she was president of the Liberal Party Organisation until 1947. She stood unsuccessfully in the 1945 and 1951 elections. Her greatest political impact was made after the war when she condemned the British invasion of Suez in 1956. In a letter to The Times, quoted in the House of Commons, she argued that the invasion rendered Britain morally impotent at a time when it needed all of its authority to challenge the Soviet repression of Hungary.

Soo - surprise suprise, it actually looks like we might be back in action :). I must say Alter-Heide has put in some crazy work to get it going again.
Well, I still have a ton of ideas for the game, so I'll be looking forward to messing with it again!
Oh - so that wasn't long enough apparently. Well regarding gaming, I'm interested in trying Desura out, now that it's been released - looks pretty slick on the screenshots. Also, I'm happy that Garret DeChellis artwork is finally seeing some ingame action - it was a shame about those quite attractive pics. I'll have to point it out to him!

It seems like just last week when everyone was ready for the new school year, buying school supplies, shopping for new clothes and making trips to school to resolve schedule conflicts.
And here it is already late-May, and graduation for the Class of 2014 is less than two weeks away on Friday, June 6.
Putting the pencil to paper, this year's graduates began their education in mid-August 2001 — short of a month before the 9-11 attacks.
These young kindergarteners were carefree then and were concerned more about the rules their teachers read to them from Robert Fulghum's "All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten." (Maybe if the whole world read Fulguhm's book today, things would be in a better state.)
Here's a list of happenings from 2001-2002, which was the kindergarten year of this year's grads:
Memorial Day a solemn reminder of those who gave all
By Ken Esten Cooke— In this patriotic town, our military veterans are never far from our minds. We honor them on nearly every holiday, we host Wounded Warriors for breaks from their rehabilitation routine, and we have the constant presence of the awesome Admiral Nimitz Museum and the National Museum of the Pacific War.
And while this coming three-day weekend is a portent to summer, the Monday holiday was created as a day of mourning. So please make a point to pause on Monday — Memorial Day — and give thanks for those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Memorial Day began as Decoration Day after the Civil War, when families spruced up the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers who died or visited a memorial. In 1971, Congress made it a national holiday.
New 'Ready, Set, Go' program seeks to make residents 'firewise'
By Ken Esten Cooke— Recent news images from fires in San Marcos, California, are disturbing. But the images and evacuations should hit home with those of us residing in the Hill Country.
The fires serve as a reminder that, despite recent rains, we in Gillespie County are still experiencing "exceptional drought" conditions, just as is Southern California.
A new group, the Hill Country Prevention and Readiness Coalition (HCPRC) is trying to focus area residents' attention on fire prevention measures and incident response readiness. The all-volunteer effort is promoting the "Ready, Set, Go" program in hopes of residents being "firewise."
By Richard Zowie —
There will be no invitations for me to join the PGA tour, no offers for me to golf at the Masters or in San Antonio at the Valero Texas Open. Whenever I drive by the Boot Ranch Golf Course, they probably will hoist a handwritten sign saying, "Do Not Enter. This means YOU, Richard Zowie."
Of the many things in life I've always wanted to do, golf was one of them. It's now gone from that list, and it left with a whimper.
It's funny how you can spend years craving to do something, and then finally do it and think of how it was nowhere near as fun as you had imagined.
For years, a maroon golf bag with a used set of golf clubs occupied a corner of my bedroom. Often, they'd talk to me.
"Rich, it's BORING in this golf bag!" they'd say. "We want to hit golf balls!"
Two things stood out from Saturday's election.
First, never doubt the effectiveness of a small, but determined, group of people seeking change. Combine that with flat-out apathy from the majority of local, eligible voters, and change is given (though without much "cents").
Second, don't doubt that unintended consequences will occur from the passing (by 25 votes) of the first-ever amendment to the city charter. Calling elections every time the city needs to transfer funds to keep business running smoothly will be cumbersome and expensive, and numb voters' interest in municipal dealings.
While lawyers will now interpret what this new burden will mean to city staff, rest assured it will cause some administrative heartburn. Even the newly elected council members say as much.
Elder abuse doesn't get as much attention as child abuse, but it still is very real. Around Texas, nearly 70,000 investigations took place, with more than 48,000 turning out to be confirmed cases of abuse, neglect and exploitation. (Self-neglect also was a factor in many of these cases.)
In Gillespie County last year, there were 75 investigations and 45 victims. That hits home.
When people with disabilities or the elderly become ill or depressed, they sometimes can no longer care for themselves, or they quit trying. Self-neglect is also a factor in care for the elderly. That's when others need to step in.
A new website, EveryonesBusiness.org, has been established to show how to recognize adult abuse or neglect. Anyone who suspects abuse may also call 1-800-252-5400 or report online at www.TxAbuseHotline.org.
Like most everyone else, my first exposure to infomercial advertising on television came from Ron Popeil. Remember him? He sold everything from the Chop-O-Matic to the Pocket Fisherman, Mr. Microphone to the Showtime Rotisserie, and the Smokeless Ashtray to the GLH-9 hair-in-a-can for those male-pattern bald spots (I'm not sure about this product; it could have been left-over black paint in a spray can).
While I never ordered anything from the master of "But wait, there's more," I always thought he was a No. 1 salesman of the highest degree. I'm sure he could have sold the proverbial freezer to proverbial Eskimos.
Later on, TV advertising advanced to such products as the Bamboo Steamer. With this device I could cook an entire menu of food — small sections of corn on the cob, raw green beans, broccoli, carrots, onions, mushrooms, cauliflower, and so on — with the steam power from a pan under this revolutionary cooking invention.
President provosts, dean show up for local graduation reception
By Ken Esten Cooke— Texas Tech University President Duane Nellis made his second trip to Fredericksburg in his short tenure. The president was accompanied by the school's provost, Lawrence Schovanec, its vice provost, Melanie Hart and the dean of the TTU School of Education Scott Ridley.
Bringing that much academic official firepower to a Saturday reception featuring 25 area graduates shows that TTU is committed to its regional campuses. It's reassuring, and we hope for continued commitment and investment from this first-class university.
All of the graduates will receive bachelor's degrees in official graduation ceremonies later this year. And all are what are now termed "non-traditional" college students.
Week recognizes contributions of 'front line' employees in patient care
By Ken Esten Cooke— May is a month that brings spring flowers and some important recognition for nurses across the country.
National Nurses Week this year is May 6-12, ending on the birth date of nursing pioneer Florence Nightingale and also graduation day for many nurses. Many graduation ceremonies remember Nightingale, the "first nurse," as a part of a time-honored tradition.
Let's all thank the nurses in our lives, who represent the largest profession by numbers in a rapidly changing healthcare system. It is because of their dedication to professionalism and patient care that they have been repeatedly voted by the public as the most trusted profession in America.
Water development board's ombudsman will help towns navigate processes
The State of Texas may never truly figure out how to have enough clean water for its exploding population, but it is not ignoring the problem.
Senator Troy Fraser and Carlos Rubinstein, Texas Water Development Board Chairman, were here last week to introduce the TWDB's new "rural ombudsman" Doug Shaw. The new position will help rural Texans figure out complicated water needs and provide guidance on equally difficult-to-execute water and wastewater projects.
Small towns often lack the expertise and tax base to support water infrastructure projects, whether it is a new water tower, a wastewater plant or replacing leaky pipes installed in the 1930s. Navigating bureaucracies based in Austin can add to the frustration. So, the new ombudsman's job is to go to these places and ask what is needed and how can the TWDB help.

I chained 162 ch and continued working pattern-piece measures about 48", which I feel is too big. I can't figure out how to get it more like 30-36". Does anyone have any suggestions?
