"It is better to know you have lost than not to know you have won."
Citadel of Sorcery is an upcoming MMORPG currently been created by a company called: MMO Magic Co. This is direct from their main website: "Citadel of Sorcery is being created by an independent Software Developer called MMO Magic. We are comprised of a small group of game industry professionals."At this stage they currently have no publisher but there was mention that through participation at E3 2010 they had a chance to meet some perspective publishers and will announce this news when they have one that matches what they are looking for.
What exactly is Citadel of Sorcery?
At its heart it is been currently recognized as a 3D massive multiplayer fantasy game, amongst many of the MMORPGs that stand today. This is where MMO Magic is separating itself from the other gaming companies by announcing from the start of Citadel of Sorcery's acknowledgement that it will bring a completely new and fresh approach to the MMORPG industry. Right from the outset of this ambitious project, MMO Magic make boastful claims that still stand today that Citadel of Sorcery will be unlike any other MMORPG that you have played. They are quite literally taking a leap of faith into MMORPG history. On the other hand, they have carefully stressed that nothing is further from the truth. That to them, it is reality and that they have already spent a great deal of resources and time shaping up their concepts into their game world. In one of their introductory journal reports, they introduce the concept of Citadel of Sorcery as:
"We'd like to welcome you to a new type of MMO experience, Citadel of Sorcery. We would like to ask you to suspend your preconceived ideas of what should or should not be in an MMO game and give this new concept a chance. We're attempting to create a new experience, one that we hope you will enjoy. In fact, one of our biggest hurdles will be to get you to try the game without thinking about other games you have played, and just experience this new style of game play. Give it a chance and we believe most of you will enjoy your adventure."
What stage of development is the game currently at?
What is known and been released is that Citadel of Sorcery is currently using their own internal testing team with a working prototype of their game engine (Trident 3D) through different builds that is at an Alpha stage. They have pointed out not to be deceived by that though as the way that they are developing this project is unlike others in the sense that parts of the builds are quite testable and whilst in areas there is still a lot work to be done. There is no mention of yet for the need for any Alpha and Beta testers.
How long has the game been in development?
Through their official website MMO Magic has been working on Citadel of Sorcery since early 2005.
When will the game be released?
There is no information that has been released that this stage.
What will make Citadel of Sorcery different from other MMORPGs?
Bold claims are definitely at the heart of this massive project as the gaming world itself will be huge; encompassing over 900,000,000 sq. kilometers as quoted: "We are very excited about the progress and potential for amazing terrain over a vast world. We have mentioned before that the size of the world is going to be 900,000,000 sq. kilometers (basically the size of earth). This is the terrain system that is building that world (and replacing the previous placeholder standard terrain system that we used in early development of the game)."
(Source: http://www.citadelofsorcery.com/news/index.php 28/05/2010 update)
A developer goes on to add: "we are building the world the size of earth so that the game will not run out of usable real estate and so that players would never have seen it all. It is important to us for players to always know that there is more out there to see, that even though they may spend a long time in a particular Territory when they choose to move on they will see new things.
We also wanted to appeal to the explorer in all of us, and when you are in a world this big there could be places out there that no player has ever seen before, even after this game has been in existence for years. Nobody can see everything, it just isn't possible. You could start walking across the RW, stay at your computer for a month and you would still only have barely started around this world. Ask yourself, how long would it take you to walk from Los Angeles to New York? That is only part of the way around earth, and this game is the full size of earth." (Source:http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/333/view/forums/thread/279773/Dev-Log-update-on-MMO-Magic-web-site.html).
Besides the sheer size of the land mass of Citadel of Sorcery which already sounds impressive, MMO Magic claim that they are confident that they can deliver a rich and diverse gaming experience unlike no other through:
These short points illustrate the direction and concept design of Citadel of Sorcery (Source: http://www.citadelofsorcery.com/index.php).
What is the official Website?
Where can I find more information on Citadel of Sorcery?
A good article on the introduction of Citadel of Sorcery and it's comparison with other MMORPGs:
A two part article produced for mmorpg.com introducing the game, this is part one:
Part two:
Unfortunately, not a lot of information beyond the correspondence of a developer on the MMORPG forums and what is officially posted on their main website is available. You are more than welcome to follow their Dev Journal on the main website as well as keep up to date through the forums on here.
There is quite a vast amount of information on the forums and I will try to update things as the game is progressing. Keep an eye out for more updates.

Mother Nature sure had her say at this year's U.S. Open. First it was the baking heat. Then came the biting winds. Ultimately, rain delayed the men's final for the third straight year.
Rafael Nadal wasn't too bothered. Nadal beat Novak Djokovic on Monday to complete his Grand Slam collection and become the first man in 41 years to claim three straight majors in a calendar year. Kim Clijsters defended her title in a weakened women's field.
Now we look back at the 2010 U.S. Open while hoping for better weather in 2011.
Most valuable men's player: Rafael Nadal
No one thought Nadal could get close to Roger Federer's 16 Grand Slam titles. Now it's worth contemplating. How can you ever bet against this guy?
The evolution of Nadal's game continues. In New York, he was a power baseliner, serving big, hugging the baseline and keeping points shorter. Before the final, he was broken only twice.
Most valuable women's player: Kim Clijsters
Until the end, Clijsters was far from dominant. She suffered major lapses against Greta Arn, Petra Kvitova and Samantha Stosur.
When it really mattered, the Belgian (and adopted American) lifted her game, performing better in the semis and crushing a hapless Vera Zvonareva in a 59-minute finale.
How Clijsters would love to play at Flushing Meadows every week. She has won 21 straight there.
Most disappointing player: Andy Murray.
This was the year Murray had to win a major. But the Scot's loss in the Australian Open final to Federer demoralized him.
At the Last Chance Saloon of the U.S. Open, his favorite tournament, Murray failed to reach the quarterfinals for the second consecutive season. He fell -- again -- to an opponent who played more aggressively.
Will it ever happen for him?
Breakthrough performer: Stanislas Wawrinka
Wawrinka has troubled all the top players in the past. The problem for him was not being able to win the big points (aka choking).
The Swiss No. 2 turned that around against Murray in the third round and followed it up with a gutsy five-set victory over Sam Querrey. Then, although taped up, he had almost enough to knock off Mikhail Youzhny in a maiden Grand Slam quarterfinal.
Best shot: Roger Federer
Federer is making a habit of those between-the-legs shots. Djokovic was the victim in the 2009 U.S. Open semifinals, and Argentine Brian Dabul was the unlucky chap in the first round of this year's tourney. Dabul thought he won a point by offering up a solid lob. Federer chased it down and smacked an outright winner into the corner. The crowd lapped it up.
Francesca Schiavone went between the legs against Alona Bondarenko, eventually winning the point on a forehand pass.
Biggest tantrum: Andy Roddick
More foot-fault controversy.
Roddick was irked when he thought a lineswoman incorrectly told him which foot touched the baseline on a foot fault. (Note that the official got the call correct.) Roddick let the incident "marinate," he said, and lost to Janko Tipsarevic one set later in the second round.
Most nervy performer: Venus Williams
Here was a great chance for Williams to end a nine-year non-grass Grand Slam drought. Sister Serena was out of the picture.
Williams eased into the semis without dropping a set and took the opener against Clijsters. But in a second-set tiebreak, Williams double-faulted on the second and third points to hand Clijsters the initiative.
With the momentum on her side, Clijsters didn't falter.
Best match: Federer versus Djokovic
Djokovic showed real heart in the semifinals, something he had been missing at the three previous Grand Slams. At Wimbledon, he was overly passive in the semis.
Facing two match points in the fifth set, Djokovic saved both with bold forehands. One was a drive volley and the other a cross-court forehand that caught the line. His scrambling was supreme.

Michael Waltrip surprises Uber customers by giving them a free ride.
Michael Waltrip Racing's history and full crews for Brian Vickers, Clint Bowyer's teams
Annual Waltrip Brothers Charity Championship event recognized Darrell and Michael Waltrip have been selected by the National Motorsports Press Association as the organization's Spirit Award recipient for the fourth quarter of 2014. The brothers were recognized for their annual Waltrip Brothers Charity Championship event, which raised $450,000 through an auction, dinner and golf tournament. The proceeds from the fifth annual event benefit several organizations including Motor Racing Outreach (a non-profit organization that ministers to the needs of families of those involved in NASCAR ), Feed the Children (a U.S.-based anti-hunger organization) and Tucker's House (an organization that seeks to improve the quality of life for children with disabilities that require modifications at home for safety, accessibility and therapy). Darrell Waltrip was inducted into the NASCAR Hall of Fame, won three premier series titles and 84 premier series races in his storied career. Michael Waltrip is a four-time winner in the sport's premier series with two victories in the Daytona 500 and is also the co-owner of Michael Waltrip Racing, which fields two full-time cars in the Sprint Cup Series . Also receiving votes for the second quarter award were the Kyle Busch Foundation and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Joey Coulter . Lynda Petty, the late wife of seven-time premier series champion Richard Petty, Sprint Cup Series driver Martin Truex Jr . and longtime car owner Junie Donlavey, who passed away in June, have also won the quarterly award this year. An overall winner of the 2014 NMPA Spirit Award will be determined by the members of the NMPA and announced on January 25, 2015 at the association's annual convention in Concord, North Carolina. The NMPA Spirit Award is designed to recognize character and achievement in the race of adversity, sportsmanship and contributions to motorsports.

NASCAR.com's Lesley Robins talks to Michael Waltrip about ABC's Dancing With The Stars, racing, crying, and his newly developed abs.
Race shop hosts event to promote science, technology, engineering, math CORNELIUS, N.C. -- The questions weren't surprising and ranged from "how much do you make" to "how did you get interested in racing." Nothing too bizarre to start off, and with just enough feedback to keep the trip interesting and the attendees attentive. Last month, Michael Waltrip Racing and NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Brian Vickers hosted approximately 30 teenagers from the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Charlotte (Mecklenburg and Union Counties). It was one of four events the organization took part in this year to help demonstrate the importance of STEM, an academic curriculum focused on science, technology, engineering and math. According to the U.S. Department of Education ( www.ed.gov/stem ), "only 16 percent of American high school seniors are proficient in mathematics and interested in a STEM career. Even among those who do go on to pursue a college major in the STEM fields, only about half choose to work in a related career. The United States is falling behind internationally, ranking 25th in mathematics and 17th in science among industrialized nations." Following the screening of a short video and the open discussion, the teens, ranging in age from 13 to 18, toured the expansive facility where MWR personnel explained the engineering and safety aspects of today's Sprint Cup Series cars in a more hands-on setting. Vickers, a three-time winner in Sprint Cup and a former NASCAR Nationwide Series champion, said he has tried to tailor his approach to the interest of each individual group. "I wouldn't say it's changed it dramatically but certainly there are some things you learn as you go through the process," he said. "It's interesting. Every group is different, some are totally engaged, absolutely thought it was the coolest thing ever, especially the younger kids. The older groups, when you're in high school ... they want to pretend like they're not impressed even though they are. They're just that age where all their peers' opinions really matter so you have to really pull it out of them. "One mistake I made early on was just hammering science, technology, engineering and math. Because that's what it's about, right? I think it should be an integral part of it but the reality is you're not going to get 100 kids in one room and they all want to be engineers." The bigger picture, he said, was the opportunity to promote the value of getting an education. And that was the message he tried to impress upon the teens. "Something I have learned is that everyone here is intrigued by different things. Maybe it doesn't involve STEM, but maybe it does," he said. "What I would say to you is you should take your education seriously, but do something you love. Maybe it is working on race cars or building rockets or building skyscrapers, whatever. Maybe it's writing a play, or maybe it's being the next great artist. I don't know. "I'm not going to stand here and tell you that you need to be an engineer if that's not something that intrigues you. But I will tell you that your education is one of the most valuable assets you're going to have in your life." He doesn't undersell the importance of the STEM program, however. Integrating it with the Boys and Girls Clubs has been a success from the standpoint of providing youngsters with hands-on learning opportunities. In addition to the tour of the race shop, the teens were also the guests of the team at Charlotte Motor Speedway . "It works for us," Vickers said of the program. "Because that's what racing is about. It's engineering-based. One of the last ones we did was in Atlanta, and we got just some amazing responses. "Those kids were so engaged. They had these dreams, and yeah, some of them, a big group of them in fact, wanted to be engineers. We had two or three that really wanted to work on race teams. And one young boy wanted to be an architect, a couple wanted to be musicians. ... And that's great. "But to only talk about (engineering), I think, it doesn't go as well. So I've kind of opened it up a little bit more; still focus on that but talk to them about what do they want to do, what are they interested in?" So just how much does he earn? "I always get that question," he said, laughing. "I do pretty well."

AquaMark3 that's pretty cool stuff
Just read the news about Aquamark 3:
Massive Development has published new documentation about their upcoming "DirectX 9" benchmark AquaMark3. The documentation covers technical information and reveals many of the special features unique to the benchmark.
The AquaMark3 Overdraw Visualisation Technique (OVIST)
The AquaMark3 Shader Visualisation Technique (SVIST)
The AquaMark3 Pixel Perfomance Measurment (PIXPM)
The AquaMark3 Tri Score System (TRISCORE)
The AquaMark3 Automated Test Technique (AUTT)
Sound pretty cool. I had a look at the docs and I really liked it. It is a great idea to visualise the overdraw of the benchmark so we can exaclty see what is going on. The coolest thing IMHO is the SVIST mode :D
From what I can see this benchmark will give us much more information about what is going on than other benchmarks. If I look at the quite extensive documentation which is already online I personally cant wait to get my hands on this!

so I am expecting perhaps end july/ early august... very optimistically... :)
Somebody has a username that's one letter away from Hellbinder. Careful with the ban button, people :D
I didn't even notice that :)
heck I didnt even notice who posted till just now...
I checked their forums and found that one of the developers mentioned that there will be an online database like Futuremark's ORB for Aquamark 3. I think this is really a good move. As far as I know Futuremark is currently the only benchmark with stuff like this. Let's hope that there will be some competition :D

text: Hi guys! First have to say how awesome my Slayer Pro is! I decided to buy a nitro r/c after messing with a co-workers RC10GT. Gotta love the smell of NITRO! Smells like the drag strip in my back yard now! But I have a few issues I was hoping I could get some help on. I'm a total newbie to the "hobby class" r/c cars. I have broken in the engine per Traxxas instructions and the truck is running great. My biggest issues are tuning the suspension. The rear end squats so bad under throttle that it has rubbed the paint off the body above the rear tires. I am going to get a sway bar kit after reading several threads. I guess what I'm asking is the shocks look threaded like coil overs on a car (I'm a gear head and build some hot rods), can they be adjusted to change the spring rate? Will this help raise the ride height a bit on the rear and keep it from squatting? The truck sits lower in the rear even at rest. Or do I need to change the rear springs to stiffer ones all together? Thanks for the help in advance guys!

King had hinted that he was eyeing the Senate seat held by Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand, and previously by now-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, but today he said so far he is "leaning against" it. King told Stephanopoulos he will decide in the next week.
Why the change of heart?
King said he is inclined to keep his position in the House because if the Republicans regain control of that chamber in this year's mid-term election, it will make him the chairman of the influential House Homeland Security Committee, a position he enjoyed for two years before Democrats became a majority in the House in 2006.
Being chairman would "put me in a position to get more done," King said.
Democrats face a tough election fight this year.
They face the prospect of losing key seats in Congress, which could threaten Obama's agenda. The president enjoys a comfortable Democratic majority in Congress at the moment, and with concerns about some seats going into Republican hands, the White House is likely to push big agenda items such as health care, financial regulatory overhaul and climate change, all of which Republicans oppose.
Democratic lawmakers from Republican-leaning states also face a tough balancing act as they try to align their party's interests with that of their constituents.

Customer Reviews of Polk Audio PSW10 50 W RMS Woofer - Black
Cost-effective Powered Subwoofer5/1/2013
The Polk Audio 10" powered subwoofer PSW10 is nicely designed and attractive (as much as a cube can be). It had very good instructions and was easy to install in my home theater system. Following the recommended settings in the manual gave a very satisfactory performance - good, strong low bass without distortion nor interference with other speakers. When the earth should shake (movies), it does!
Just ok....1/2/2011
If you have satellite speakers, then you might get away with this bass performance. If you have full range speakers, then this subwoofer won't do you much good. Make sure that you are putting it in a small room. I have the Polk PSW10, which performs much better...goes deeper and louder. If I had an extra $100, I would have gone with a better performing sub. But, for less than a $100......
Excellent Subwoofer11/9/2010
Sound is excellent. Built solid. Not to booming. Plenty of volume to match the other speakers in my system. No LFE input, but you can easily just plug into the L input or split to both L and R input. Overall an excellent subwoofer, especially for the price.
It Is a 120Vac device, the description is incorrec9/20/2010
It is mis labeled on the description. I called their customer support and they did verify it is 120vac. They explained that they are a licensed retailer of Polk Audio and only sell in the USA and all their items for sale are indeed 120vac. I ordered it and received it a week later and it is a 120vac input. Speaker looks good and works excellent. The only complaint I have is that it does not handle higher level subwoofer inputs as well as hoped. (My H/T system is 105w per channel) However after some adjusting and fine tuning, it serves it's purpose and delivers great sound/bass. Overall I am happy. If you are looking to rattle the windows and move furniture around the room, I would recommend buying the larger PSW12 instead. Overall this a good value for the price, and I do give it a 2 thumbs up.
Great value5/19/2009
Excellent equipment for the money. It has a substantial presence in my 180 sq ft home theater. Highly recommend.
Great product for the price!2/23/2009
The subwoofer offers great bass and maximum output for the price. You can't really beat the price.1 Helpful | 0 Not Helpful

Originally written on Football Nation | Last updated 9/27/12
Step with me into the Way-Back Machine:There were many notable debuts when the Philadelphia Eagles hosted the New York Giants in Week 1 of the 2004 season: Terrell Owens played his first game in Eagles green (catching 3 TD passes) and Kurt Warner made his first appearance in blue, under new Giants head coach Tom Coughlin.Oh, and a much-ballyhooed rookie named Eli Manning stepped under center for the first time as a pro (in relief of Warner in Philly's blowout win). Although Manning completed just 3 of 9 passes, he had a hand in a scoring play on his very first pro snap – handing the ball off to Tiki Barber, who raced 72 yards for a score.***** Manning has started against the Eagles 17 times since his Sept. 12, 2004, relief appearance. More often than not (10 out of 17 times), Manning and the Giants have walked off the field against the Eagles as losers – but in his overall career, Manning has a pair of Super Bowl championships to show for his efforts, while the Eagles have nothing ...

Tuan's Gr-eight!
Boys from Churchfields School, in Church Manorway, represented Greenwich in the Inner London Boroughs seven-a-side trophy at Crystal Palace.
Playing in the moderate learning difficulties event, the team beat Lambeth in the final, with a winning goal from their captain Tuan Ahn Truong.
Churchfield's coach Louis Wilbourne said that he was extremely proud of the way his team had performed throughout the event.
"Our goalkeeper saved a penalty in the semi-final, which enabled us to get through, and Tuan was in brilliant scoring form, hitting a total of eight goals."
In Southampton, the Churchfields team will face strong opposition from 51 other sides from all over the country. In all, there will be a total of 6,000 competitors taking part in various sports.
All of the travel and accommodation is being paid for by the organisers, and the formula for the event is like a mini Olympics, with a parade of participants on the first day and then football heats on the next two. If Churchfields reach the final, it will be played on Saturday, August 19.
In addition to the boys' football success, there were team golds in angling and squash, as well as silvers for the girls' judo squad and boys' football.
Greenwich also received a special award for being the most successful inner London borough during the Games and finished 10th overall behind Havering, who retained the title ahead of the Redbridge and Bexley squads.
Neighbouring Lewisham had some fine individual performers but the nearest it came to a team prize was when it finished fourth in the paddle-sports competition.

The Second City e.t.c. has announced the opening of The Second City e.t.c.'s 38th Revue, "Apes of Wrath." Reviewing press are invited to attend the show on Saturday, June 21, 2014 at 8:00 p.m. at The Second City e.t.c. Theatre (2nd Floor of Piper's Alley, 230 W North Ave). A Grand Opening is scheduled for Thursday, June 26, 2014 at 8:00 p.m.
In the world of high stakes, we become a more heightened version of ourselves, which can sometimes resemble more simian behavior than human. From unitard sporting performance artists, an intimate encounter with robot culture and the primal effects of downsizing, "Apes of Wrath" embraces the dark and light sides of our human devolution.
Veteran Chicago-based director Jen Ellison leads returning cast members Carisa Barreca, Brooke Breit and Punam Patel with new cast members Eddie Mujica, Asher Perlman and Tim Ryder. Alex Kliner is back at the piano as the Musical Director and Composer and Kyle Anderson returns as Stage Manager. The producing team for "Apes of Wrath" includes Andrew Alexander (CEO & Executive Producer), Kelly Leonard (Executive Vice President), Alison Riley (Producer) and Jeremy Smith (Associate Producer).
Tickets for "Apes of Wrath" start at $23.00 and are available by phone at 312-337-3992 or online at www.SecondCity.com.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. TeamworkTeam 10 is known used for quickly taking out the opponent. Either Shikamaru or Ino disables the opponent as Choji and Asuma finish off the opponent. They can also be used as disabling a person in an espionage mission. Their mission's were supposedly very successful, as Asuma recommended them for the Chunin Exam. As a job well done and a successful mission they go to a restaurant and eat for celebration of their victory, they are satisfied and worn out, but they are still happy.Their BondTeam 10 mostly got along with each other, especially Shikamaru and Choji, they were friends before going to the academy and they are still friends after. Ino had some problems with the team because she was kind of mean and a snob, Asuma was a great leader, mostly when the squad is in trouble he just pops out and saves their lives against higher ninja. When they were Sakura, Naruto, Shikamaru were on the mission to get Sasuke from reaching Gaara, Shikamaru made a tactic that leaves one member behind, himself, almost killed and out of chalkra Asuma saves his life from being dead by sound ninja. Asuma gives advice to the team whether it hurts or not, just like when Asuma told Choji to stop eating and do some training, Shikamaru was there to help Choji. Team 10 has a great bond together.MissionsThey solve their missions by hiding and figuring out a plan by Shikamru with his power of 200 I.Q. Shikamaru catches them in a shadow clone justu and pauses them for a kill. Another plan is Shikamaru uses his shadow clone jutsu and pauses them, and then Choji uses his size manipulation jutsu and knock them over like bowling pins with great force. If they are going against a very strong team they or trying to be sneaky or trying to get pass something No is the right girl for the job, she can use her mind translation jutsu and get into other people's body with her mind. Or they all can use their sneaky tactics and capture the enemy instead of killing them. They solve their missions sneaky, and quick, and powerful.

BeautifulReviewed on 5/28/2013 Tiffany S
Jennifer Surtz was amazing to work with. The room looked beautiful. The food was wonderful. I could not complain about anything! I used their table centerpieces they were very pretty and didn't cost me extra.
Great staff, location, and time!Reviewed on 6/03/2012 Sheena W
We were VERY impressed and happy with the Crowne Plaza. The staff was WONDERFUL! They upgraded my groom and I to a suite which was very helpful because my bridesmaids and I were getting our hair and make-up done at the hotel. Everyone from the catering director, front desk staff, bartender and cleaning lady were beyond friendly and helpful! The ballroom itself was decorated and set-up just how I asked and we truly felt like VIPS as the staff came around to the head table to take care of us. We were happy with the food, the chicken parmesan was awesome and the roast beef was just so-so. The cost was very reasonable which really attracted us to the Crowne Plaza but after how well they treated us we felt like we got the best deal ever! The month before our big day went very smooth, but before then we were working with our third wedding coordinator working for the Crowne Plaza. The first two moved on to work with other companies. We were a little upset about this but in the end everything was perfect.
Exceptional Food and ServiceReviewed on 11/03/2011 Carrie C
The wedding coordinator was extremely helpful and very responsive. Our guests raved about the food. I loved the neutral remodel which allowed our color scheme to pop.
Beautiful roomsReviewed on 9/27/2011 Carolina M
The rooms were wonderful, the shuttle ride from the party to the hotel was punctual, and the help that they provided was on the money. I was very pleased with the service they provide. Would recommend to anyone.

Many a pogroms have been incited by Passion plays and the idea that Jews were to blame for Jesus' death. After all, they let a murderer—that filthy murderer Barabbas—go free while Christ was hung on a tree.
I've long thought this ridiculous and still do. But at church Sunday night I began to see this story differently from the Jewish perspective (yes: church and Jewish perspective).
I've read countless times the passage in the Gospel of Mark where Pontius Pilate asks the crowd of Jews which prisoner he should free—the Messiah or the murderer—but I hadn't paid attention to the way Barabbas is described in Ch. 15 as "among the rebels who had committed murder during the insurrection."
"Barabbas," the Rev. Mark Brewer of Bel Air Presbyterian then said, "was like a freedom fighter for the Jews, who had probably slit some Roman soldiers throat."
Learning that, I wondered under which circumstances the Roman-ruled Jews would have chosen to free a man believed to be a Jewish heretic and who said he was going to destroy the temple over someone they believed was fighting for the physical and political freedom of the Israelites.

A child who masters the classics will stand apart from the uncouth boors on the school bus.
Sarkozy is known for running—television crews often film him, sweaty and uncouth, as he jogs in an NYPD t-shirt.
Because while calling a passerby "sexy" may be uncouth, it shouldn't be illegal.
Old English uncuð "unknown, uncertain, unfamiliar," from un- (1) "not" + cuð "known, well-known," past participle of cunnan "to know" (see can (v.)). Meaning "strange, crude, clumsy" is first recorded 1510s. The compound (and the thing it describes) widespread in IE languages, cf. Latin ignorantem, Old Norse ukuðr, Gothic unkunþs, Sanskrit ajnatah, Armenian ancanaut', Greek agnotos, Old Irish ingnad "unknown."

1.0.4496 drivers and kernel 2.6.0 not working
I followed this guide to get the 1.0.4496 drivers working. I'm running Debian testing, and didn't really have any trouble getting the necessary modules compiled. I made the necessary changes in XF86Config-4 (see attachment). My user is the video group. As it stands, when I try bringing up X, the nvidia splashscreen appears, followed by blackness. This repeats a little bit, and then it's all just black. I get the same behavior with the default options, with Option "NvAgp" "1" and with Option "NvAgp" "0". Relevant log output is attached. My hardware is rather old (TNT2 chipset), but it worked fine under 2.4.x and some older nvidia binary drivers, so I know the driver can power my hardware.
If there is any additional information I can provide you to help me, just ask. Thanks in advance!
I'm still very much in need of assistance. If you think you might be able to help, I'd really appreciate it.
Well, that one looks like the problems I had with my Opteron - it was caused by my NPTL - enabled glibc. Maybe the wrong GLX was installed on your system?
Everything working!
Thanks for the reply LaNcom. Your post prompted me to run through the howto again using the packages and patches for Debian unstable. Everything appears to be in good working order now.

Use Data for Health, Not for Data's Sake
Apr 2, 2015, 10:10 AM, Posted by Hilary Heishman
Using data for health is most powerful when you know what problems you're trying to solve. The latest Data for Health report looks at how we can harness that data to source community solutions.
A few months ago, community members and leaders from an array of local organizations came together in Philadelphia, Des Moines, San Francisco, Phoenix, and Charleston, to talk about ways they and others around them use data to improve health—as well as the hopes, concerns, and challenges they face in collecting and sharing data.
After listening to and reading about these conversations that were part of the Data for Health listening series, this piece of practical wisdom captured in a new report on what we learned from those meetings jumped out at me:
The real question is not 'What data do you want to collect?' but rather, 'What problem do you want to solve?'

Animal Conservation
The Potawatomi Zoo has taken an active role in the preservation of some of the world's most endangered species. The Zoo has participates in several Species Survival Plans (SSP) coordinated through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). SSPs carefully plan for the future of species living in the zoos. For an endangered species, a genetically sound population is critical to studying that species and increasing its numbers.
The Species Survival Plan program began in 1981 as a cooperative population management and conservation program for selected species in zoos and aquariums in North America. Each SSP manages the breeding of a species in order to maintain a healthy and self-sustaining population that is both genetically diverse and demographically stable. Beyond this, SSPs participate in a variety of other cooperative conservation activities, such as research, public education, and reintroduction and field projects.
A species must satisfy a number of criteria to be selected for an SSP. Most Studbook programs are computerized databases of the history of the captive population of animals, including birth dates, sexes and genealogies of individual animals. The purpose of the program is to continue to track the genetic make-up of captive bred animals to ensure that gene populations are as diverse as possible and to help keep genetic mutations from the captive population of animals.
The Potawatomi Zoo participates in several SSPs: You can also visit http://www.aza.org/conservation/ for more information.

When he took offense to salts sleeping sheep smilie blitz responded with open your third eye and cleanse your antenna and you will be able to know a persons true intent even through the Internet, which is all but oh so freakishly true, but I love it. Anyway, I'm a little list with your guys' belief with Lucifer. Do you really think "Lucifer" is satan? To expand through my research, the serpent is NOT the "devil" but was demonized as such. Great way to manipulate the truth to keep it hidden, right. I feel the same as Lucifer. Because initially, Lucifer wasn't brought up to Christians till the KJV, right? Also, Jesus and Lucifer both light bearers and morning stars, correct? I say, the anti Christ is alive and well and has been for over 2,000 years. The second coming of Christ has already happened after he was killed the church resurrected his teachings but falsified the hell out of it. We've been living in revelations for a long time. The beast who controls this planet is terrified of the true teachings of Christ and Lucifer which is why he manipulates their truth and brainwashes us to believe the second coming of christ hasnt happened yet. I hope you're all picking up what I'm putting down. these subjects are difficult to detail while trying to keep short ;) Thoughts? [/quote] To contribute a song to your thread which gives some substance to my understanding, I'd like you all to listen to, JayZ - Lucifer (the original version).... we all know jayz has strong ties and iron strings to the puppet masters. I can't post the song, my phone won't pull up the original. "Lucifer Dawn of the morning, I'm gonna [b]chase you out of earth[/b]" Then his verses come out spewing nothing but evil. Why would evil want to chase lucifer out of earth? I say the REAL dark forces have inverted the light, just like they do everything else. [/quote] [/quote] This is my post. Itchin for something, from one who is not "religious" and is heavy in esoteric knowledge. [b](Salt/Blitz/Abhie)[/b] :hf: [/quote] [b]the scope of this thread is the tactics and behavior of the Luciferians which is rooted in masonic ritual. all of it is leading up to the birth and rise of the AntiChrist.[/b] they are celebrating this event, which i think will be happening at any moment now. [/quote] Hahaha, no shit, lol. You totally steered away from responding to any of my posts. Why would you respond back with that!?! [/quote] rude. very. [/quote]
Original Message
"Shine bright like a diamond. We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky."
Rhianna's new hit song. Catchy tune, isn't it?
But, we have heard about the sky diamonds before. This is not a new language.
Remember the Beatles song" Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.
On the surface it is interpreted as a reference to drugs.
LSD, perhaps?
Maybe. But, i don't think so.
Lucy is a nick for Lucifer?
But what do the sky diamonds mean?
The occult references in the Beatles work prove they were Illuminati puppets.
A promotional photograph for the Yellow Submarine album shows John Lennon flashing the devil horns. Paul McCartney makes a '666'/EYE OF HORUS hand sign.
The front cover of the With The Beatles album shows their faces half in shadow. This is the 'One Eye of Horus' that is epidemic in the music industry today. The black/ white duality is the Masonic doctrine to balance good and evil.
A Beatles compilation was released in 1988 titled 'Past Masters'. Past Master is a Masonic term used to describe the former Worshipful Master of a Masonic Lodge. The album contains exactly 33 songs.

According to occult analysts, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds means Lucifer and the diamonds are stars - specifically Dogstar in the Sirius constellation.
We all know that Rhianna is a publicly admitted illuminati puppet and monarch slave. She is reviving the Sky Diamond message.
In her diamond video, we see an appearance of the black horse. Black horse in Revelation?

Base Oils-lubes overview Transcript
Base Oils are a synonym for base-stocks, they are mixed with additives to form finished lubricants. Biggest end-use is the automotive sector and there's a big trend right now for higher quality base stocks, so we're actually seeing some consolidation of our Group 1 Base Oil plants and a bigger move to Group 2, Group 3 and even gas-to-liquids plants.
Automotive emission standards are the biggest factor affecting base oils.
There's also a seasonality factor. Heavy drive season that's usually May to September, that's when demand is the strongest for base oils.

Market overview
Base oils-Lubes: Market overview
Updated to Q2 2015
Efforts late in the first quarter to raise posted prices in Group II base oils have failed to gain a following among all base oil producers, leaving the second quarter open to price uncertainty in the US.
Supply/demand fundamentals are improving, with heavy discounting and Temporary Voluntary Allowances (TVAs) fading from the market.
Group I heavy grades are considered to be in snug supply early in the second quarter and are likely to remain so throughout the quarter.
The underpinning reasons stem from production cutbacks due to the low price of crude oil and the compression of the Group I tier as Group II production becomes the prevalent base oil in US production.
US export activity continues to increase as Group II producers target South America and Europe as destinations for burgeoning production.
Asia's Group I base oil spot prices are likely to be stable to firm going into the second quarter on the back of snug spot availability and healthy demand for SN500 and brightstock. An upcoming turnaround at a major northeast Asia-based Group I refiner is expected to contribute to the tight supply situation. As for Group II base oils, the resumption of operations at two key northeast Asia-based units following shutdowns for maintenance since March is expected to relieve tight supply for Group II 500/600N cargoes.
European Group I base oil prices appear were at the beginning of an upward trend at the close of the first quarter, and this appears likely to continue for some weeks at least. While feedstock prices have been more or less stable, support for prices is coming from reduced supply, as some refineries have announced closures while others performed maintenance turnarounds.

Base Oils-Lubes Methodology
About Base oils-Lubes
Base oils are the main component of finished lubricants and are derived from the heavy crude oil fraction in vacuum distillation. They are refined to impart physical and chemical properties that will make a good lubricant. Most base oils are combined with small amounts of chemical additives to form the finished lubricants such as motor oil.
The traditional method of making base oils involves solvent extraction to remove aromatic compounds and solvent dewaxing to take out unwanted waxes. More recently hydroprocessing techniques employing hydrogen and catalysts have been used to make base oils.
Group I base oils which are mostly produced by solvent processing are used in less demanding applications. Group II and III base oils are produced by hydroprocessing and used in higher performing lubricants. Group IV base oils are synthetic oils typically based on polyalphaolefins (PAOs). Group V oils are used in the formulation of oil additives.

the reliability of an observation, it is important that data users be given a clear sense of how much manipulation has been made to the original data; at a minimum, a strange-looking data value might be more credible if it had an associated data flag indicating that it had been reviewed with the respondent or had been reconciled with other variables in the record. Although users may very often want to benefit from the expertise of people who process a large technical database like ARMS, they should have the opportunity to make their own decisions about how to treat data.
Data users have a need for tracking and understanding the impact of imputations for missing data. The relatively simple conditional mean imputation practices used for much of ARMS will generate data that are not appropriate for sophisticated multivariate analysis; for such work, users would need to perform their own imputations or use techniques for analyzing partially observed data. Within the metadata framework, ERS can provide signals to users regarding what values were reported and what values were imputed.
Another critical area in which such knowledge is not recorded in a usable form in ARMS is the history of management of individual survey cases. Systematic collection and organization of such data on attempted contacts with respondents, together with relevant data on interviewer, respondent, and neighborhood characteristics, are particularly important for use in understanding and potentially improving the methods of case administration as well as in understanding nonresponse and detecting nonresponse bias. In light of the relatively high nonresponse rate in ARMS, making such data available should have a high priority.
Highlighting these two issues in no way should be taken to diminish the importance of collecting and organizing other metadata and paradata. In particular, efforts should begin to collect systematic information on interviewers, to document the processes underlying questionnaire design, to document changes in interviewing practices, to note the types of records respondents use, to record any special efforts or incentives used in gain the cooperation of the respondent, and other such factors.
As ARMS moves toward computerization—a step we advocate in this report and that seems inevitable in the long run—it makes sense to build the capabilities for capturing and organizing metadata and paradata as an integral component of ARMS data collection, processing, and products. The need for metadata and paradata makes the transition to digital data collection much more urgent.
Recommendation 5.5: NASS and ERS should develop a program to define metadata and paradata for ARMS so that both can be used to identify measurement errors, facilitate analysis of data, and provide a basis for improvements to ARMS as part of the broader research and development program the panel recommends.
