Samsung let the cat out the bag today when they posted an image of their upcoming Illusion handset coming soon to Verizon Wireless. The image of the device was posted on their Flickr account along with some information confirming the model number (SCH-I110) and showing off their "green" award for the Illusion. Although no other specs were revealed for the Samsung Illusion, we can expect this to be a 3G only device (judging by the pic) and rumored specs are placing it with a budget friendly 800MHz processor, 3MP camera and more than likely featuring a 480×320 display. Oh yeah — and it's "green."

RODALE NEWS, EMMAUS, PA—Many fitness professionals offer personal training, but emerging research is finding that group training—in which two or more people pay a lower price and exercise with a trainer together—is more popular than ever, according to reports from the Academy College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and IDEA Health & Fitness Association.
THE TREND: Group training. Fitness industry trend reports have found a consistent increase in the popularity of personal and group training during the last decade. And because of that, more qualified, college-educated trainers are joining the workforce. A 2008 IDEA Fitness Programs & Equipment Trends Report found that while nearly 90 percent of trainers offered one-on-one personal training, about 80 percent now allow two clients to share a session. That's up from 56 percent in 2001. Three to five clients sharing a session rose 26 percentage points in the same timeframe.
WHAT IT CAN DO FOR YOU: First and foremost, it saves you money, since you and the others in your group split the cost. For instance, a personal training session may run about $50, but a group session could cost $25 to $30 per person. In group training, you can also feed off the energy of the group, something that can help motivate and inspire exercisers. "It helps to add variety to the workout," says Tammy Strunk, associate director of health and fitness at Rodale Inc. "With groups, you can do circuit training, partner exercises, and games."
Working out with a few other people can also help a self-conscious exerciser feel less intimidated, because the trainer has to pay attention to the entire group and doesn't just focus at one person the entire time.
HOW YOU CAN DO IT: Your first step is to find another person or a small group committed to starting a group training program. But there are some things to consider to ensure better workout chemistry between exercisers:
#1: Find people at a similar fitness level. If you can barely run a block without doubling over in side stitches, but your workout buddy runs 5Ks every weekend, the two of you might not be the best training partners. Finding people in about the same shape as you will allow the trainer to spend more time focusing on the workout, not tweaking it and demonstrating it for different members of the group.
#2: Group members should have similar commitment levels. "You don't want to be with a group of people who tend to say they are going to show up and then
don't show," warns Strunk.
#3: Don't pair up with a rooster if you're a night owl. Look for folks who like to work out around the same time of day you do.
#4: Leave out your ultracompetitive neighbor. You want to be with people who are committed, motivated, and supportive, and a little competition is healthy, explains Strunk. "But if you have somebody that is just out to do better than everybody else, that is not healthy," she says.
#5:Find the right trainer. Your best bet is to find trainers with college degrees in exercise science or physiology, kinesiology, or physical education. Strunk says you should also look for respected certifications such as those from the American College of Sports Medicine, IDEA, Aerobics and Fitness Association of America, or the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Ask about how many years of experience trainers have under their training belts, if they're certified in CPR, and what types of people they have worked with (kids, seniors, athletes, ordinary people) to find the best fit. Also make sure your trainer teaches members of the group how to properly monitor their own intensity, because trainers can't keep their eyes on everyone at all times in group training settings.
HOW TO MAKE IT ECOFRIENDLY: Find a qualified trainer as close to your home as possible, and carpool to group training sessions. To cut back on energy use, tell your trainer you prefer bringing your heart rate up without the use of treadmills or other energy burning equipment. Some trainers will offer to do sessions in parks or other outdoor areas.

Photoshop CS5 for Photographers provides comprehensive Photoshop training targeting the needs of photographers. In this course, author Chris Orwig demonstrates the fundamental skills used to enhance digital photos, including managing and correcting color, sharpening, making selections and adjustments, retouching, and printing from Photoshop. In addition to teaching the techniques that enable photographers to refine and publish their photos, the course includes live-action segments that encourage thinking photographically and shooting with Photoshop's capabilities in mind. Exercise files are included with the course.
Another powerful way to work with the Adjustments panel is to take advantage of Presets. Let's go ahead and work on two images here and take a look at how we can use Presets when we're working on our photographs. We're going to be working on these two images that were captured in a friend's backyard of our daughter and their friends playing in this little swimming pool. So let's click one of the images, hold down the Command key on a Mac, Ctrl key on a PC, click on another image, then press Command+O on a Mac or Ctrl+O on a PC. Let's go ahead and start off on this photograph of Annika.
Press F to go to Full Screen View mode, Spacebar, and then I'll click and drag to reposition this image near the top of the screen. Now one of the things that we can do, in regards to how we can take advantage of these controls, is we can simply go ahead and choose the Adjustment layer; for example, I'm going to choose Hue/Saturation. Next, you'll notice that up at the top of the Adjustment layer, we have different Presets. And here you can see I can choose Cyanotype, or I could go down to Old Style, a little bit of a muted look, or I could go to something different, like this Sepia tone here.
Now a lot of times, these presets can be great starting points. You can also access these presets in another way. Let's turn off the visibility of this layer. Go back to the Thumbnail view, and here what we're going to do is scroll down to Hue/Saturation Presets. You'll notice we have the same Presets here. We can click one. It will then create a new Hue/ Saturation adjustment layer. And then it will apply that preset setting. Now keep in mind that from here, again, this is just a starting point. We could change the color of the toning, if we want a little bit more red or a little bit more yellow-green.
We can also change the amount of the toning so that we can dial this in, so that it's just perfect for our photographs. All right. Well, let's go to that other image. And one of the best ways to scroll through open documents is by way of a shortcut. This is one of those $5 shortcuts you just have to write down. It's Ctrl+Tab. That will then take you through, or scroll you through, your open documents. All right. Well, I'll press the Spacebar key and then click and drag to reposition this one near the top of the screen.
Another way that we can take advantage of Presets is by going to something like let's say Black & White. Here, I'll click on that icon. Again, from this pulldown menu, we have so many different options. We could go ahead and choose a Blue Filter Black & White conversion. Not a very effective option there, but there are some other ones that may be interesting, for example, Infrared, pretty fascinating, or if we want to tone down the yellow pool a little bit more, we could go to this Yellow Filter option here, and that's a pretty good Black & White conversion. Well, let's compare that to the Default setting.
Yellow Filter, and then here is Default. Well, I find that Yellow Filter a little bit more compelling, and keep in mind that from the starting point of this Preset, we can always go on to make other adjustments. Now the other thing that we can do is kind of interesting, is we can share these adjustments across multiple images. Let me show you what I mean. Let's say that I like this adjustment, but I decide to change the preset a little bit. I want to darken up the Yellow here, just a touch more, and I'll go ahead and brighten up the Green a little bit as well, and then I'm going to modify just the Red there a touch.
So again, I've tweaked the preset. It's no longer a preset, but I want to share this one with another image. How do I do that? Well, I exit out of Full Screen View mode by pressing Shift+F. And next, what I can do is position these two images side-by-side. And here, you can see on this image I have a Sepia tone effect. I'm going to turn that off. Let's say I want both of these to share the same Black & White conversion. We'll click in the layer with that adjustment, and then simply drag it to the other image and drop, and there you have it.
Both of these images are now processed in the same way. If we put them side-by-side, we can see that both images share some of the same characteristics in regards to this Black & White conversion.

The heavy arcing die crack at the lower right reverse is always present on S-186 and provides instant attribution. That crack actually developed in 1799 when the Mint was striking cents of the latter date. The reverse die was used for the 1799/8 S-188 overdate cents, which were all struck before this 1798 cent. In fact, all 1799/8 overdate cents were struck before this variety and 1798 S-187. The 1799 NC-1 cents were struck first, the 1799 S-188 overdate cents were next, followed by the 1798 S-186 cents, and finally the 1798 S-187 cents.

The surfaces are glossy and golden with splashes of frosty tan and darker steel toning and a few minor spots on the reverse. A dull nick just below the jawline is the only blemish on this lovely cent. Del Bland grades this coin XF45 and tied for second finest known. Noyes says XF45 with choice surfaces, and also records this piece as second finest known. This is the plate coin for Breen's Large Cent Encyclopedia.
Dr. Robert A. Schuman is a radiologist in Scranton, Pennsylvania. A native of Baltimore, he worked for Thomas Warfield at the Mason-Dixon Coin Exchange from 1958 to 1963, where he learned to attribute and love the early large cents. He attended the Frank Masters sale in 1971, purchasing the finest known S-19b from that collection. The coin was misattributed in the sale catalog and was missed by every collector attending the sale. It was also at the Masters sale that he learned of Early American Coppers and met many important collectors. An avid collector of Hard Times tokens, he published a study on the series, The True Hard Times Tokens, in 2010.

I especially like to have a great time partying with friends and getting know new people. I am also intellectually curious about everything the world has to offer. I grew up in Anaheim, California and had a wonderful childhood. I grew up surfing and LOVE the water. I played football, basketball and baseball in high school. Although one can say that I have too much education (earned a MBA, Juris Doctor and MA in International Relations), I believe that I am well adjusted because of my inter-personal skills and love for sports, especially college football and college basketball. I also am an active dad to four young children. A typical week in my life vis-a-vis my kids: I take my junior high school daughter to softball, my junior high school son to little league, my second daughter to kindergarten and love playing baby games with my youngest daughter. My perfect match would be a vivacious, inquisitive, pretty, outgoing, sports enthusiastic woman who likes children.

40 year old man | Buffalo, NY, USA | Seeking women 30-45 within 50 miles
If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?
25 random things about me... 1. I don't need an alarm clock to wake up, give me a time and I'll wake up within 10 minutes of it... 2. I'm a diehard boater. I play xbox on my boat. Shake your head all you want. 3. I cheat in Monopoly if I am the banker. 4. I don't think there's a peanut butter that holds a candle to Peter Pan (creamy). If you have Skippy in your cupboard we may not be a match. If you have Skippy in your refrigerator we are definitely not a match. 5. I'm secretly obsessed with the real housewives series and I'm man enough to admit it 6. I'm like a little kid on vacation, I can't stop smiling 7. I channel surf to the point where I annoy myself 8. I would love to meet Nancy Grace in person one day so I can tell her to her face how much she sucks. 9. It would be great to meet someone who has read my position paper on economic expansion in Micronesia and shares my views on the Paraguayan debt and money supply issue. 10. People who strike up conversation on the check out line in the grocery store intrigue me 11. I can watch the same movie another 100 times 12. I like to figure out which is the the saltier side of a Triscuit before I eat it. Not really sure why. I guess I like to know what I'm getting myself into. 13. I've watched every Seinfeld episode 5 times 14. I fell in love with Buffalo all over again. 15. I talk a lot during movies and ask too many questions. 16. I worry about things that have yet to happen 17. I'm obsessed stuffed banana peppers. 18. I never sleep well on Sunday nights 19. I'm a closer. I like to associate with other closers. 20. I am proud of my career and consider myself an ambitious person, but my job is not my life and it never will be. 21. I sing in the shower and on the treadmill and I don't care who hears me 22. I am constantly losing my keys and the remote...constantly 23. I chat with random people anywhere near me 24. Ronald McDonald creeped me out when I was a kid 25. It would be great to meet someone who can hold her own at a black tie function and at the dart board in a dive bar. I love a great bottle of wine as much as I love a crappy draft beer. I'm not into looking back. I'm not into regrets. I do not have room for drama, insecurity or baggage. I have none of those. If you can hold your own, know what is important and file your tax returns on time, we should talk.
Middle of the Road
A good restaurant, a weekend roadtrip, a trip to the beach, loading up the trucks with some toys and heading out for some outdoor fun. Getting dressed up for night out downtown, the bottom line I'm in for a good time whatever it may be.

Al Qaeda-linked militant group al Shabab has assassinated a Somali parliamentarian in Mogadishu as he left a mosque. It is the fifth killing of a lawmaker this year.
Sheikh Aden Mader was killed on Friday in Somalia's capital, Mogadishu, after militants blocked his car and sprayed it with bullets, witnesses said.
Mader was chairman of the parliamentary finance committee and a former minister in the Somali government. He is the fifth Somali parliamentarian to be killed this year.
Al Shabab militants claimed responsibility, saying they killed Mader for bringing "Christian enemies" to Somalia. This is a reference mainly directed to UN-backed African Union forces who are battling the group.
"This was a legitimate target, and he was killed on the orders of Allah," said al Shebab spokesman Abdiaziz Abu Musab, adding that the rebels planned to kill lawmakers "one by one" if they continued to support the government of President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud.
Witnesses described how Mader was gunned down outside the mosque, in Mogadishu's Hamar Weyne district.
"When he started his car, gunmen blocked him with another car and opened fire on him," said Abdullah Osman.
"The gunman then disappeared with their car," Osman said.
Of late, al Shebab has increased attacks on government officials and security forces in a bid to discredit claims by the authorities that they are winning the war in Somalia. The group wants to establish an Islamist state in the country.
The group's fighters fled the capital three years ago, and have since lost control of most big Somali towns to the African Union forces, which remain the backbone of security in the embattled country.
However, al Shebab has strongholds in vast areas of the Somalia's rural hinterland, from where they launch guerrilla raids.
The group has also carried out attacks against regional countries whose troops form the African Union force, including in Kenya, following last September's attack on a mall in Nairobi which killed 67 people.

But Howard's brisk, effective performance is a reminder of what's missing elsewhere in the movie, an authoritative actor who can quickly flesh out a character, plus dialogue that has not been mechanically produced.
Cuba Gooding could do that too, but as second-in-command Major Emanuelle Stance, his job is looking thoughtful while finding different angles to chomp on his pipe. As chief mechanic "Coffee" Coleman, the great Andre Royo grumbles a lot about pilots mistreating his planes, although he does get to paint the tails in that aforementioned red.
British-born Oyelowo launches several interesting plot threads as daredevil Joe "Lightning" Little, including a romance with lovely Daniela Ruah, an American playing an Italian in a movie largely shot in Croatia and the Czech Republic. But Lightning's story strands seem to serve plot needs rather than pulling together a character.
For despite its flashy 21st Century thrills, "Red Tails" is a movie from the very old school of Why We Fight. The explanation for the content shortage lies in Hollywood studios' current formula for making sausage, er, movies.
In a recent appearance with Jon Stewart, Lucas d escribed "Red Tails" as old-fashioned, corny and "inspirational to teen-age boys." He also placed it as the middle of trilogy, albeit one that may never get made. Episode One would be the trials the airmen faced before the war. Episode Three would be the continuing racism they faced when they returned home. Episode Two is not about character or social issues, but getting asses in seats, with explosions.
Even with those limitations, though, the episode that Lucas got made provides some corrective to decades of all-white "greatest generation" epics. The absence of black fighting men, and women, from American history has been one of those little fibs white people tend to tell each other to keep ourselves confused and ignorant.
Estimates vary, but perhaps one-fifth of Revolutionary War rebels were non-whites of various heritages. Those yeomen farmers and mechanics? They may have been enthusiastic about drilling with their local militias, but when the time came to march off and fight, many preferred to send slaves, servants and apprentice boys in their place.
A good example came from New Jersey. Samuel Sutphen of Branchburg, who left a memoir of his service, was bought specifically to fight in place of his new owner. For Sutphen, the lure was the promise of freedom at fighting's end — which went unfulfilled. On the other hand, Rhode Island fielded a regiment of free black soldiers, with white officers, 85 years before Civil War "Glory."
On the other side, tens of thousands — at a minimum — of slaves ran for British lines, many across New Jersey. In Monmouth, Essex and Bergen (which included Hudson) counties, blacks served in front-line engagements and raids. "Refugeetown" on Sandy Hook was home base for several multi-racial guerrilla groups, including that commanded by the daring runaway slave "Colonel Tye."
You're not likely to see movies about Samuel Sutphen or Colonel Tye, or even about the 10th Cavalary "Buffalo Soliders" and other blacks who did the heavy fighting at San Juan Hill, only for Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders to sneak off with the credit in the white press.
Against that background, "Red Tails" certainly fills a gap in the movie version of our American heritage. And with its open skies, gleaming planes and great balls of fire, it provides exciting action. In modern Hollywood, that's close to being inspirational.

I know what I want from life and I'm willing to put forth 110% to get there. Im as laid back as I am driven, I love to have fun and I live to laugh. Nothing's funnier to me than laughing at myself. I love my life and all who are in it. I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason, even if you may not like or understand the reason. I am grateful for the way life has worked out. I love my job... most of the time anyways. It is very rewarding to be able to help people when they are at their weakest and most vunerable. I work night shift which makes for a crazy schedule at times. My friends help keep me grounded. There is never a dull moment when we get together. I would love to find someone who also knows what they want from life (or at least has a pretty good idea). A good sense of humor is definitely a plus :)

Will this work if I'm playing hockey and my phone is 15-feet away.
What is the max range?
- Asked by Leonel M from Chicago
Wahoo Fitness Blue HR Heart Rate Strap
Product No Longer Available
2 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
The range is 10 feet unobstructed but Wahoo says that when it loses connection to the iPhone, it keeps record of what has not been transmitted and resumes the transfer after connection has been picked up again. You should then not lose any data. They don't how long it keeps the records and how much it can store though.

The range of the Wahoo Blue HR is 10 feet unobstructed. You can try using it to play hockey but, the the Wahoo Blue HR may go in and out of signal. Thanks!

How do animals integrate internal drives and external environmental cues to coordinate behaviors? We address this question by studying mate-searching behavior in C. elegans. C. elegans males explore their environment in search of mates (hermaphrodites) and will leave food if mating partners are absent. However, when mates and food coincide, male exploratory behavior is suppressed and males are retained on the food source. We show that the drive to explore is stimulated by male-specific neurons in the tail, the ray neurons. Periodic contact with the hermaphrodite detected through ray neurons changes the male's behavior during periods of no contact and prevents the male from leaving the food source. The hermaphrodite signal is conveyed by male-specific interneurons that are postsynaptic to the rays and that send processes to the major integrative center in the head. This study identifies key parts of the neural circuit that regulates a sexual appetitive behavior in C. elegans.

Many hip-hop lyrics sound like shopping lists for the rich and famous with rappers waxing rhapsodic about their Mercedes-Benz cars, Louis-Vuitton bags or Nike Air Force Ones.
These days, many are hoping for a freebie or loaner from the brands they sing about, but in 1986, when the group Run-DMC penned the song "My Adidas," it was all about love — for the sneaker. In that one song, Run-DMC, one of the most influential rap groups, laid out a love affair that continues today.
Rappers love sneakers.
And with love being a two-way street, the sneaker makers love the booming sales that the rappers bring in.
Reebok Employs Rapper to Boost Sales
Is it coincidence then that in 2003, hip-hop superstar and business mogul Jay-Z became the first non-athlete to score an endorsement deal for a line of sneakers from an athletic shoe company?
The $13.5 billion athletic shoe industry has moved from the basketball court into the living rooms and nightclubs of America. According to NPD Group, the industry grew by 2.6% in 2003 with the majority of growth in consumers aged 18 to 29. With the release of Reebok's (nyse: RBK - news - people ) S. Carter by the Rbk line, Jay-Z, whose birth name is Shawn Carter, joined the ranks of sports luminaries like Michael Jordan, LeBron James and Stephon Marbury to have his own line of sneakers.
The price of such deals has soared since Michael Jordan signed with Nike in 1984 to the tune of $2.5 million over five years.
In 2003, Cleveland Cavalier rookie LeBron James signed a seven-year endorsement deal with Nike worth an estimated $90 million (see: "Slam Dunk"). With prices like these, some athletic shoe companies have changed the way they dole out their endorsement dollars. Fewer athletes are being courted to put their name on a shoe. Instead, athletes are now signed to endorsement deals to promote someone else's shoe.
Jay-Z's deal comes at a time when hip-hop is rapidly gaining mainstream cultural acceptance. Since 1993, hip-hop and rap has grown to 13.8% of all music bought in the U.S., according to the Recording Industry Association of America. Todd Krinsky, vice president of the Rbk division of Reebok, says Jay-Z, who has a small stake in the New Jersey Nets NBA team, was signed because he is "an icon in sports and an icon in music" and "has a huge passion for basketball."
The biggest distinction between deals with athletes versus hip-hop artists is that these deals extend only to the artists' feet, allowing them to wear other clothing labels — an important distinction as many hip-hop artists have their own fashion lines.
The success of the S. Carter line has led to further endorsement deals with hip-hop stars for Reebok, which needs to improve its image with consumers between the ages of 13 and 29. In this age group, Reebok ranks fourth in consumer dollar spending, behind Nike (nyse: NKE - news - people ), Adidas and New Balance, according to the NPD Group.

Safety Alerts
The NTSB has highlighted what it sees as five general aviation trouble areas
For night VFR flights, use topographic references to familiarize yourself with surrounding terrain. Consider following instrument procedures if you are instrument rated or avoiding areas with limited ground lighting (such as remote or mountainous areas) if you are not," the Safety Alert says.
In the fifth Safety Alert, "Pilots: Manage Risks to Ensure Safety," the NTSB notes that effective risk management involves developing good decision-making practices, knowing how to use all resources available to you, recognizing and coping with stress and fatigue, and being honest with yourself about your skills, proficiency and attitudes. The Safety Alert points out that accidents occur when several small risks aren't identified or managed and become a dangerous situation.
The Safety Alert highlights an accident at Crystal Lake, Ill., in which all four people on a Cirrus SR20 were killed. The private pilot, who didn't hold an instrument rating and had logged only 207 hours, was conducting the flight from Marion, Ind., to DuPage Airport (DPA), West Chicago, Ill.. At 9:58 a.m., the pilot contacted DPA tower. The airplane was approximately two miles south of the airport at that time. The controller advised the pilot that the airport was IFR. About 30 seconds later, the pilot radioed that he had inadvertently flown over the airport. The controller then cleared the pilot to reverse course and land at DPA. At 10:02, the pilot informed the controller that he no longer had the airport in sight. The controller provided a suggested heading to DPA.
At 10:04, the pilot asked if there was another airport with better visibility because he did not "want to get in there and get stuck all day." The controller noted that Chicago Executive Airport (PWK) about 20 miles northeast was reporting VFR. The controller asked if the pilot wanted to be transferred to Chicago Approach for help getting to PWK. The pilot replied, "I'm still trying to decide if I want to try to land at DuPage or not . . . would you think that's a good idea or not." When the controller asked the pilot if he was IFR qualified, the pilot replied that he was in "FR training and I've let this get around me."
The pilot was subsequently handed off to Chicago Approach and, after starting out for PWK, decided he didn't want to go there. He told the controller that he didn't "...want to mess with the weather...I'm gonna get out...and I don't want to get stuck in here." The controller transmitted, "frequency change is approved," and the pilot acknowledged. The airplane continued maneuvering at low altitude, about 1,800 feet MSL, until it entered a steepening right turn. A witness saw the airplane descending in a 70-degree nose-down attitude.

Aditya Kapoor - "I never imagined I would be doing a movie with Aishwarya Rai and here I am in two films with her. She is not only a bundle of talent but also has good technical know-how which makes it easier for the director."
Rajnikanth "There is no other beauty in our generation like Aishwarya Rai and she is a born artist."
Colin Firth "She is a beautiful and talented person. It was a great experience working with her," Firth said excitedly.
Vidya Balan "Aishwarya Rai is the epitome of grace; I admire the way she conducts herself. She is by far the most dignified woman I've ever met in my life. She is humble to the core.
Julia Roberts "Aishwarya Rai is the most beautiful woman in the world"
Roger Ebert(film critic)- "Aishwarya Rai is not just the first, but also the second most beautiful woman in the world"
John Abraham "Honestly when you think of beauty, you think of Aishwarya Rai."
Sushmita Sen "I think there is definitely a very huge price to pay when you are as beautiful as Aishwarya Rai is. There is huge price to pay when your entire projection has always been that of perfection. So even if the poor girl does something, as sneeze in public, it's news, and it's bad news So I really wish that media would give Aishwarya Rai a break because I think a girl goes through a lot of pressure all the time from everybody from the Madame Tussauds, to the world press, to English movies etc. It just like that the world is expected out of Aishwarya Rai. She is just a girl, she will take her time and I am sure she will come out of it."
Pooja Batra "The way Ash has come up and taken the entire world by storm is a good thing for all of us Indian girls."
Beyonce "I'm a fan of a few Bollywood films. I have seen Devdas and Lagaan , both great films. I loved Devdas the actress was amazing! I cried towards the end of the film," she reveals."
Dino Morea "I wouldn't mind being bodyguard to a lot of ladies, actually. But, yes, I find Jennifer Lopez very pretty and like her a lot. I'd like to be JLo's bodyguard! Coming back home it would be Aishwarya,"
Atul Kasbekar(photographer) "She's stunning. You can put your light anywhere and shoot her, and she'll look good. There are very few people who land on this planet genuinely believing they've come with a certain destiny. They are the chosen few. I'm willing to wager that Aishwarya genuinely believes that God has given her so much that she shouldn't fritter it away., Again, I say this in the most positive way.She may not say this aloud, but Aishwarya has, from day one, known where she's headed and worked towards it."
Zayed Khan - "For lack of better words, Aishwarya is truly fantastic. It doesn't happen often to too many people, but I can say that I'm a firm believer in God. I made a wish to work with her, and He made it come true for me. I don't know how someone can know Aishwarya and not like her. After knowing her, I realised what a wonderful person she actually is, and I'm glad I saw that side of her, or else it would have been a complete disappointment."
Martin Henderson(co star Bride and Prejudice) - "I have a soft spot for her. It's not because of her beauty,though she is very beautiful. I like the side that isn't seen.The real Ash is a sweet girl. She reminds me of an old fashioned movie star-So glamorous I think I was lucky to get to know a side of Ash that alot of people never see,I mean the image of Ash is this huge movie star which she is in India is one thing,and I think that was compelling,but you know I was lucky to spend time with her and get to know the other side of her which is a really sweet,very sensitive,and really loveable person,she giggles a lot"
Simi Garewal "Ash is as beautiful inside as she is outside. It's difficult for people to digest that. So they conveniently conclude the sweet exterior hides a devious inner life."
Keira Knightley "I've heard that Aishwarya Rai is the most beautiful woman in the world,"
Emraan Hashmi "a conventional looker like Ash would be my idea of sinful beauty."
Sanjay Leela Bhansali "Aishwarya is one of the most intelligent persons I've met. Her grasping power is extraordinary. She is all there. Always. Thinking. Questioning. She does her homework in the car on her way to the set. She is very graceful too. Even if I asked her to run down the stairs, she would do it so rhythmically that I would be awe-struck. I didn't have to work too much on her."
Sonam Kapoor "I have to say that Aishwarya has always been nice to me. If she had a problem she never told me about it. She was super sweet to me when I met her. We met at Abhishek's birthday party and we chatted for a really long time. She is lovely."
Katrina Kaif - "I do not think that I am a great beauty. I rate Aishwarya Rai as the most beautiful woman in India"
Deepika Padukone 'Undoubtedly, it's Aishwarya Rai who has been invigorating my spirits. Well, she has been a model right before commencing her career as an actress and these attributes gets us closer'.

A Tale in the Desert and now A Tale in the Desert II have been on the MMORPG landscape for quite some time. A few weeks ago, I had a chance to have a lengthy discussion with the Pharaoh himself, Andrew Tepper and play the game for the first time since beta. In so doing, I discovered a much deeper game than I thought I would. Here are my impressions:

ATITD2 is an interesting game and different. The problem I have just starting out. is every question you ask the veterns is answered by "its in the wiki". Yet when you go to the wiki often there is not a real explaination on how to do something.
For instance. the first test in Architecture is to build a house(tent) of course to build a simple tent you need to have canvas, linen, nails and wood. getting wood is straight forward and the manufacture of canvas and linen are covered in the beginning island. but to get nails you need iron and a nail mold. to get iron you need an ore cart and mining. to get the nail mold you need a cutable stone. Nothing really explains how to do those things.
There are public mines you can use. but that is not explained clearly
ATITD is a nice change of pace, but to really increase its population it needs to be a little more friendly in the starting stages

I played in beta and found that very same problem. It is far too overwhelming to master every single aspect of a project by yourself; However, I believe this to just be a gimic to get one to seek the help of others. That does seem to go along with the goal of the game afterall, create a society. No man is an island, we're all travelers in the same desert.

A single player can only block a Demi-Pharaoh preliminary round (7 player per group) by creating or allowing a tie to remain. The actual criteria is that whoever has the MOST votes in a round, advances, but nobody advances if there's a tie.
I have a very different take on the Wiki. While it's true that there's no cookbook style manual, much of the point of the game lies in the discovery of exactly how stuff works. Flax genetics, for example, aren't explained ahead of time, but crossbreeding experiments have dramatically improved flax yield. Players use the wiki to describe the current state of their experiments. Likewise with cooking for stats.
There is much about the game that engenders cooperative efforts. There are some 250 herbs that can be gathered, some of them quite rare, and there are 12 different ways to gather each herb. A considerable effort allowed the players to sort out the combinations, and one of the players put it all together in a database at http://herb.atitd.net.
I've been playing ATITD for a couple of years now, and while I know a lot about the game there are many technical puzzles that I haven't explored.
The most astonishing thing about ATITD is how open-ended it is - and the wiki is merely a reflection of what has been established - what's being established - and solutions that are "good enough" for the moment.

Win the crowd...
The biggest disappointment for me was the total emptyness.
Everywhere i looked i saw building, art, monuments, etc. But no people! I've spend hours alone on some godforsaken beach trying to build a house to house some indoor equipment. I finished it and i found out i was all alone... So i stopped and never looked back.

As a seasoned player of ATITD 2 I would ike to say that those who say it's on the wiki do not represent us all. If you decide to try this game and cant get your question's answered you should ask around if anyone know's of a newbie guild we have many throughout our land and when you find one join it we have built these guild's just so we can help you get started out in the game. Once you are comfortable with the game it is your choice if you want to stay in the guild and help other's or if ya want to leave. One of these guild one I'm in myself is called Protege once on the mainland if you go to the region Nile Delta all you do is from the chariot stop is go south to the first bridge and head west across that bridge follow that road to the pond you will see it just before you get to that pond on the right will be the Protege guild hall just click on it and ask to join this guild. We are more then happy to help anyone who need's it. Also no guild should ask for anything other then some brick's and board's for entrance. Also dont let anyone tell you, you have to make their guild your primary guild. There are some who try to force you to make snap decision's but the better part of egypt doesnt agree with this practice. The reason why some ask for brick's and board's is to help make the guild bigger so it can hold more people and to build or expand a guild it take's brick's and board's.
A few pointer's for getting around egypt once on the mainland are F3 bring's up a map of the region your in F4 is your compass showing n, s, e, w, on the map you will see all the school's and university's in that region also you will see the chariot.

Bissen Has A Plan For La Crescent
Senior housing.....new businesses and education...all on hte top of Steve Bissen's list if he's elected to La Crescent Mayor in the fall. He maps out some of his concerns.
Bissen will take on incumbant Maor, Mike Poellinger, on November 6th. Poellinger recieved 95% of the vote total when he was re-elected in 2010. He's been Mayor since the early 90's.
School Days....School Days.....Catchy Tune To Some
It's a new school year in the City of La Crosse and the school district is gearing up for new faces roaming their halls today. Superintendent, Randy Nelson, says they are down 9 staff this year from last, and they have struggled to staff one area of the district.
Over 50 new teachers throughout the district are ready this morning to welcome in students for the 2012-13 school year.
Holmen Clashes With Town Of Ona On Fire Costs
Not all fire service is created equal...
That's one stumbling block holding up a new agreement on fire protection for Holmen and the towns of Holland and Onalaska. Last week, the Onalaska town board voted to withdraw from the fire district unless Holmen pays more of the cost, since it gets the vast majority of calls. Holmen administrator Scott Heinig says charging by the call is not fair to his community. Heinig claims if the town of Onalaska withdraws at the end of 2013, as it threatens to do, then Holmen and Holland will continue their partnership.
Missing Drunk Student Found Monday
More details now about a close call in La Crosse this weekend.
A Few More Tips, But No Breakthrough In Cold Case Murder
A very hot summer has gone by in Vernon County, without much movement on a notorious cold case.
Last May, the sheriff's department in Viroqua asked the public to help solve the murder of an unknown woman that occurred in 1984. Sheriff John Spears has been trying to make the media beyond western Wisconsin aware of the killing. The woman's body had no hands, and she didn't match any missing person description at the time. Investigators believe she was killed outside Vernon County, and the body was brought over county lines.

Cannot image a PC - failing constantly
Hi everyone,
I have setup a task which is
> prepare for image caputre
> capture image
> reboot to PXE
The prepare for image capture completes successfully, but the capture image task fails giving return code 0. The computer is running Win 7 32bit and I have tried capturing it as .IMG and .GHO but both fail almost installing. I have pasted the log from the Altiris Log Viewer. If anyone can shed some light onto why this is happening I'd greatly appreciate it. There are a few logs so I have posted all the ones that say FAILED.
Comments 1 Comment • Jump to latest comment
You will need to reboot to PXE in order to run the create image task. Once that has completed, you will reboot to production unless you have any other tasks that need to be run within the PE.
Connect Etiquette: "Mark as Solution" those posts which resolve your problem, and give a thumbs up to useful comments, articles and downloads.
