39 year old woman | New York, NY, USA | Seeking men 34-42 within 50 miles of Inwood, NY
Looking for a fun-loving intellectual.
I'm an academic who craves stimulating conversations with friendly, fun-loving types. I enjoy going to thought-provoking plays and well-crafted movies, but also goofing around at home - trading light-hearted jabs, making meals together, and just enjoying each other's company. I grew up in Maryland, next to a vast, beautiful forest. This fostered an abiding love of nature - of hiking, kayaking, seeing the sun shine through the trees. I haven't been camping in a while, and I wonder if spending the night in a sleeping bag is still as rejuvenating as I once found it to be. Care to find out with me? I'm quite sure I'd still be giddily happy to eat a fire-toasted marshmallow off the end of a stick. I also love New York and feel incredibly grateful that my career brought me here. I love the lights, the energy, the culture, the people. I'm still exploring and would love to visit your favorite spots. I'm looking for a relationship in which we bring out the best in each other - in character, work, and adventure. I like to be challenged as well as embraced, and I want to give the same in return. I'm looking for someone with whom to create a warm, vibrant home, with interesting conversations, delicious family meals, music, love, and laughter.

A Lock of U. S. Grant's Hair with Magnificent Provenance At the time it was cut, this lock of brown hair belonged to the nation's most acclaimed hero: Gen. Ulysses S. Grant. The substantial cluster of hair, measuring about 2" in length, was provided in 1866 to an unknown female admirer whose last name appears to be"Wetmore." It comes with its original transmission letter written in ink on "Head-Quarters Armies of the United States" stationery that reads in part "I have the pleasure/of sending you according/to our promise, a lock/of General Grants hair,/and only beg you to re-/member your [ ] pledge/not to betray the Service/from which you obtained/it. My lady friends would/ [ ] me, and our/poor chief would be bald." It is signed "Adam Badeau." Severely wounded at Vicksburg in 1863, Badeau served as Military Secretary and Aide-de-Camp to Grant from March, 1864 through May, 1869. A wonderful and very personal memento with impeccable provenance.

No gain in perf after install 9800 > 640
I'm a little confused here the specs for the gt640 blow the doors off the 9800gt, but when running phoronix test suite universe-x the benchmark numbers are pretty much the same.
On-line benchmarks tell me this card should be about double the 9800. But so far nothing extraordinary. Did I get a lemon or ?
I'm running Linux Mint 13 lts x64. For some reason the system would not load the drivers already installed, so I tried to uninstall/reinstall the supplied drivers no joy, I then d/l'ed and installed the Nvidia drivers from their web site just to even get the card to run. I would have thought that it should be a simple plug in and play, but not this time.
Is there something I forgot to do to get the card to run?
btw: the drivers I installed are 319.32

On Tap Today: The election's upon us
Will Obama be re-elected for a second presidential term? Will Mitt Romney and his Wisconsin-based VP candidate Paul Ryan take over the White House? One thing is for certain - this election thing is a pretty big deal, particularly in a so-called battleground state like Wisconsin. So unique entertainment options appear to be a bit spare tonight as we wait to see how this election will pan out.
That said, the Riverwest Public House Cooperative at 815 E. Locust St. has found a way to celebrate the election and bring some much needed fun to the evening. It's been preparing for tonight with a series of "Hot Blind Debates" discussions this fall in addition to screening the actual presidential debates. Tonight, election coverage will be playing on two big screen TVs, with raffle prizes for guessing the popular vote in states before they're called, plus political jokes and "I Voted" drink specials. Oh, and according to the site, depending on how things go, cat videos might be shared as well. »Read Full Blog Post

Charging Cell Phones in Italy
I just purchase a set of plug converters, and it states not to use with electronics. Does anyone know what kind of plug converters I should purhase?
I just purchase a set of plug converters, and it states not to use with electronics. Does anyone know what kind of plug converters I should purhase?
Thanks, Steve, maybe they are just being really cautious!
By "plug converters" I guess you are talking about what I call "plug adapters" like in the photo below. They just make your American-style flat pronged plugs fit the European-style round sockets. You plug your USA flat prongs into the back of the adapter (extreme left in the photo), then plug the adapter's round prongs into the European round-hole socket.
They don't do any power conversions or anything other than make the one-to-one connection to the socket.
So be sure your appliance is able to accept the European 240 volt input without need for conversion to standard USA 120 volts. It's very likely that your phone charger will not need a converter (from 240v to 120v). It will probably just need the plug adapter, but check the charger to be sure. It should say "Input 110V-240V" or something similar.
Several years ago I bought an electric converter from Radio Shack and it works great for cell phones and digital cameras. I use it every year when I go to Italy and switzerland.
Buon viaggio,
RB: "...electric converter from Radio Shack and it works great for cell phones and digital cameras..."
RB, it's very likely that your cell phone and digital camera don't even need that converter. Read on their chargers. If the charger says something like "Input 110v-240v" then it is already capable of handling the European 240 volts without need for your converter. All you need is a simple plug adapter like in the photo above.
Even 10 years ago all my cell phone and camera chargers were capable of using either USA 110V or European 240V without need for a converter/transformer.
There's absolutely no logical reason that the specifications for a Plug Adapter should state "not to use with electronics." This would make more sense if you were speaking of a solid-state Voltage Converter. Could you clarify?
As the others mentioned, you need to check the Input Voltage specifications on the Charger for your cell phone. If these state 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. then the Charger will work just fine with an inexpensive Plug Adapter such as www.magellans.com/store/Adaptor_Plugs___Converters___Plug_AdaptorsEA351D?Args= (this is the Euro model - different model required for the U.K.).
Also, could you clarify which network your Cellphone is with? If you're with Verizon or Sprint, your phone very likely WON'T work in Europe. If you're with AT&T or T-Mobile, it would be a good idea to verify that your phone is a quad-band model; if it isn't equipped with the two Euro frequencies, it WON'T work in Europe.
thanks Ken, I have spent my morning with a magnifying glass in hand, making sure that all my chargers have the120-240 designation. So far, so good, just have a couple of my traveling companions chargers to check. I do have two phones which are both AT+Ts, but I will be purchasing an Italian SIM card, so I am getting ready to call AT+T to get the code to unlock.
As Steve mentioned, it's extremely important to ensure that your phones are quad-band models. When I was in Italy in June, I encountered some young visitors from the U.S. that were most puzzled on why their GSM phone wouldn't work. When I checked the settings, it turned out the phone was a dual-band model, with only the North American frequency bands.
If you could provide further details on what brand/model phones you're using, I'll check.
Here is an adapter for a great price and Free shipping! Europe to USA Power Adapter
Ken, I purchased a new Breeze phone for my boy friend at an AT+T kiosk on Friday, and was assured that it would work, and I own a Razr (sp?) V3 which, according to the ATT website will work. But, if you'd like to reconfirm, that would be great. I'm nervous enough- leaving tomorrow morning-- and don't want any surprises. Thanks!
Karen - I'd recomend verifing that your Breeze is indeed unlocked by going to a T-mobile store and having the rep put in a T-Mobile sim card. If the T-mobile sim works, then your Breeze is unlocked and you should not have any problems using an Italy sim card.
Jeff, just got off the phone with ATT and they initially refused to provide me with the unlock code. I just bought the phone an extended a two year contract, so they thought that I was going to abandon their service! I spoke quite loudly---as I was hyperventilating and stressing out as I bought the phone ONLY 'cause of the European trip (leaving tomorrow). She spoke with her supervisor and it is now programed as a contact in the phone! Whew!
Karen, What do you mean by "now programed as a contact in the phone"? ??? ATT can provide you with the "unlock code", which will be needed to Unlock your phone, when you enter the Unlock sim menu page. Did ATT run you through that? Still recomend trying a T-Mobile sim in your Breeze, otherwise you may be out of luck in Italy.
Both the Razr V3 & Breeze phones appear to be quad-band models, so you should be fine with these in Europe. You may have to manually do a "Network Search" when you land, as I'm not sure if either of those models will automatically find available networks. My Motorola V551 has to be set to the new networks manually (but after that it works fine).
I was a bit concerned about your statement regarding the unlock code in that "it is now programed as a contact in the phone". This must be something new as normally unlock codes are simply entered into the phone, and the phone is then "unlocked". There should be no need to "program" these into the contacts list. IMO, it sounds like a load of rubbish!
As someone else suggested, it would be a good idea to verify that the phone is in fact unlocked by trying it with a T-Mobile SIM if possible.
As you're leaving tomorrow, you won't have much time to deal with this. I've never tried, but it's also possible that the vendor that sells you the Italian SIM will be able to unlock the phone.
For future reference, here's two examples of solutions from the internet - www.mobileunlocked.com/HTC/Breeze & www.gsmliberty.net/shop/attcingular-pantech-breeze-imei-unlock-codes-p-2266.html
Good luck and happy travels!
My statement that the unlock code is programed into my phone actually just means that in addition to writing it down, I put in in as a contact called Unlocked, so that I'd have it in two place. Old fashioned notebook and in the phone. AT told me that when the Italiam SIM was put in, I would be prompted for the code. So, I think I might be ok. I have a long layover in Boston tomorrow, so I may go lookiing for TMobile to check it out. Thanks for this wonderful wealth of information. This Travelers Helpline is fabulous!
Karen, When you do enter the unlock code, be sure you enter it correctly. I understand that the phone will only accept a certain # of incorrect unlock codes ( maybe 3? ) and your phone may become unusable???? or at least the sim will be come unusable...not sure of which. When you get back let us know how the phone and sim worked out.

"That is what I think is the problem with total anonymity," Maxey said. "It's that I have a son that lives in the area and most of the patients came from a 100- or 150-mile radius of the area. If you do math, again, there may be 100 young women that are basically my son's age that are his half-siblings. I have to tell him there is an awful lot of your brothers and sisters that you don't know and I don't know."
Unlike many other developed countries, such as the United Kingdom, there is currently no official government registry for either sperm or egg donors in the United States. Web sites like Siblingdonor.com are trying to fill the gap, allowing donors to post their details for any offspring who may wish to connect with their biological parents.
Maxey says this issue of secrecy should be addressed by the federal government. He wants sperm banks to have to disclose all relevant information to both donors and their offspring.
"It's access to the information. I think the kids should be told and I think the donors should be told," he said. "Not precisely, here's the name and address of your kid, but that they exist and whether they are healthy or not. And that there is a meeting point, an information exchange point where, if you want to know about each other, you can go there. Becoming connected with your genetic relatives should be facilitated and not blocked."
AUGUST 31st UPDATE
Since our report first aired on Nightline, Dr. Maxey has made contact with one of his donor inseminated children. He hopes for a reunion with this child - now a teenager. He is also working on creating an inventory for genetic material. On the Donor Sibling Registry he is now encouraging donor inseminated mothers simply to save their used donor vial. He says that as medical questions arise, as new tests for new conditions are developed, parents will be very glad that they have this archived specimen that documents exactly what genes were present in the sperm that gave life to their child.

When I'm really stressed or anxious I see spiders each time I close my eyes. Wandering across the back of my eyelids, large and small. It makes sleep very hard at those times as I lie awake with my eyes open to avoid the spiders and try and calm myself so they will go away.
One trick I have had since childhood is to build an ice cream sundae in my head, visualising the bowl, then each layer. We used to get those ice cream sundaes with my parents at Dreamworld, so I think this technique is one I learned / was taught as a very young child.
Annie often has bad dreams or bad thoughts in her head that keep her awake at night so she can't sleep. The melatonin has helped but there are still times in the early hours of the morning where she lies awake with the bad thoughts keeping sleep at bay.
I tried to teach her my trick, visualise something happy, like my ice cream sundae which is associated with happy memories of my childhood. But something happened that surprised me, Annie can't build pictures in her head, she can't visualise these things.
So I need a new trick to teach her, a different tool. Would love to hear what works for you.
Perhaps give her a real ice cream sundae that she can see? (someone had to say it!) If Annie's not visual then perhaps calming music could literally drown out the sound of scary thoughts.
I sometimes get "bad" thoughts in my head (things like what if I went and murdered someone I really love because I really hate them?). the more I tried not to think about it, the more I thought and the more I worried. I ended up talking to mum and realising that I don't have bad thoughts because I'm a bad person who would do those things; most people have an occasional fleeting bad thought and brush it off, but anxious Aspies fixate and worry. now instead of trying not to think of something (impossible), I take a good hard look at it, knowing it didn't make me a horrible person, and then it's much easier for me to not think about because I'm not trying to avoid it. For more realistic worries, I put them on a convertor belt in my head and watch them ride away, knowing they will come back again, they aren't forgotten, but I don't need to look at them right now. Very visual, but perhaps writing a worry down and putting it in a worry about later box would work?
Another strategy that some have success with is to talk about all the worries she has with you before she goes to sleep, discuss briefly the likelihood of those worries eventuating and the consequences if they did. Usually you would then visualize them being packed up in a box or suitcase until another time but as she has trouble visualizing maybe you could get an actual box, decorate it and even call it a 'worry box'. Then at night you can open it with her, discuss the worries and then close it up when she goes to bed and tie a big ribbon around it. Trying to get into the habit of only allowing the worrying to happen when the box is open. Hope you find something that helps
Love this suggestion Martine.
Marita I hope you find something that works. It must be hard having disrupted sleep for so long.
Nic xx
Suggestions we have had are,
Using those worry dolls
An exercise book next to the bed to write or draw worries in when they happen. That way they are out of their head.
Write draw the worries on paper and fold up small and put in a box.
We are currently doing a new exercise before bed naming something nice that happened that day and naming something nice about the next day.
That's all I can come up with right this minute.
oh your spiders reminded me of my childhood. i had the same, and i fixated on bad thoughts and thought that meant i was a bad person. My mum and dad used to say, think happy thoughts. I found it really hard, so i read books that were very "fluffy" before i went to sleep so i could think about that.
I make pet rocks with the kids I work with and we also make them a small home. You tell your pet rock your worries and it sleeps under your pillow or your bedside table. If you wake up at night you hold your pet rock in your hand and it takes away the bad thoughts. Most kids will fall asleep holding their pet rock. I do this during the day and we don;t go over the bad thoughts just before bed as it will be the last thing on their mind as they go to sleep.
I used to get the kids to think of three things or times they liked and then write a story in their head. If she cant "picture" the story then she can maybe "see" the words to the story as if she was writing them down. Then in the morning I would ask what the story was. 9 times out of 10 they were asleep to quick to remember it. They had plenty of scary bad thought nights too.
I start thinking about my toes. I wiggle them, and then relax them. Then my feet and my ankles, all the way up to my shoulders and head. Think about each part part, wiggle it a bit, relax it and move on.
I wonder if that would work better because there is something concrete to feel and relax?
Big girl has a 'night iPad' and she chooses a movie to watch at bedtime. She has an entire elaborate game about the magic iPads and how you get more movies on to them. She 'watches the movie on her eyelids' which would be a problem, but perhaps Annie could tell herself stories.
We've found several talking book apps that the girls like, maybe something like that for before bed?
Wish I had some thoughts, but very glad you've got a few clever chicks here who know more about this than I do!
We've used the worry dolls with my worry wart…. she would talk to the doll then put it under her pillow and try to go back to sleep. Limited success on the sleep front but I think it made her feel more in control having something she could actually do.
At the moment we use spoken stories on the MP3 player, or I let her read… something to really help her think about something else entirely.
[…] still have night waking, especially Annie with her worries but not for as long and no longer every […]

Posted: April 10, 2013 at 2:56 a.m.
DEAR JEANNE & LEONARD: When our son asked to borrow $5,000 for an engagement ring, we were thrilled, because his girlfriend is wonderful. But after we lent him the money, months went by without any word of the engagement. Finally we asked what was up, and our son said he wasn't going to propose until his girlfriend proved herself financially responsible by paying off her credit card. More months passed, so we asked again, only to learn that our son had bought a big-screen TV with our money instead of a ring. He assured us that he'd since saved enough to pay for a ring once his girlfriend has paid off her debt. Still, we're shocked. How to handle this situation constructively? — Perplexed DEAR PERPLEXED: You shouldn't be too shocked. Studies report, and we're not kidding, that men put wide-screen TVs on their wish lists ahead of sex.

Leading US firm Cooley LLP has opened its first UK arm with a 55-strong team based in London. The group, comprising 20 partners, boasts strong expertise in corporate and commercial transactions, technology, IP and cross-border M&A.
Leading tax practitioner Susan Klein has joined the Chicago office of Akerman. She arrives from the law firm Polsinelli.
This year, we pick out eight firms in this section that have delivered standout performances in our research. Although inroads have been made into the market by global firms, it is the country's domestic offerings that lead the way. Ritch Mueller Heather y Nicolau outshines its rivals in the banking sector. Galicia Abogados also performs well in this area, along with a strong showing from its corporate and finance practice groups. Meanwhile, Santamarina y Steta and Creel García-Cuéllar Aiza y Enríquez are noted for their comprehensive legal services, with recognition in 14 distinct practice areas. Hogan Lovells BSTL delivers the best international offering after its merger with Barrera Siqueiros y Torres Landa. To view the full results of our research, please click here.
In our analysis of the Mexican legal market we feature 481 leading lawyers across 27 distinct practice areas. Mergers and acquisitions continues to be the largest practice area chapter in our research by some distance. A surge of corporate deal-making last year has given the sector further impetus. Meanwhile, the banking chapter has made a sizeable gain with five new entrances into the guide, after the country enacted sweeping reforms. Similarly, project finance has become the third largest chapter with seven gains; its lawyers are enthused by the allocation of funds for major projects and the enablement of greater private sector participation. The newly amalgamated technology, media and telecoms chapter also reveals a stronger legal marketplace, driven by government infrastructure spending and private consumption. There are also two new chapters to the edition that recognise the growing importance of the life sciences industry and private equity investment, which both stem from favourable economic development and regulatory changes. We also feature several practice area reviews written by Mexico's leading specialists. Fernando de Salvidea and Rocío González Alcántara of De Salvidea y González Alcántara take an in-depth look at administrative litigation in the country; Humberto Morales Barrón of Sánchez Devanny Eseverri examines the evolution of corporate governance; Claudio Rodríguez-Galán of Ramírez, Gutiérrez-Azpe, Rodríguez-Rivero y Hurtado elucidates the recent ground-breaking legislative changes to the energy sector; while Isabel Davara de Marcos and Alexis Cervantes Padilla of Davara Abogados explore the transformation of the telecoms industry.

It is almost two years since Enrique Peña Nieto was sworn in as president. Within this short time frame there have been significant developments in the country, most notably transformative changes to its legal framework. These have certainly helped the country take the crown as one of the emerging MINT (Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria and Turkey) nations and resulted in excitement among international investors. The country's growing economy (which an HSBC report predicts will be the eighth largest in the world by 2050), a rising middle class and the enactment of several key pieces of legislation have translated into an exceptional year for Mexico, and its legal market has correspondingly benefited.

Good service. Requested a room change, we were moved no problem to a room closer to the main entrance. Rooms were clean, and a very good size. We had a fridge but no microwave. Breakfast was good, but it could have used a little more variety.
The breakfast staff were very nice and helpful. We stayed for 3 nights which also included a bikers night on Saturday night, which no problems were noticed or any noise out of the ordinary . The only negative was that the hot tub on Sunday night was only as warm as the pool water, we just about froze. We were really looking forward to a HOT hot tub. as we had visited the zoo that day and it was really cold outside. We had a last minute rate which was really good. All in all we would recommend this hotel.

Big agreement on the MM comments and the amazing talent he has, no doubt and so natural. Rookie of the year already! Good bet!
As for Bradley Smith, I think it's a bit hard to put a Tech 3 against the Suter chassis at the moment. There were 12 Suter (5 in top 7) at the test and only 2 tech 3 and it was Brad's 1st time riding the 2011 bike, as Mike di Meglio was the only one who rode it in Nov.. In this class feeling from the bike is everything. Brad was only 0.7 from Mike times so thats not too bad.
Mike had 2 crashes on Thursday and Brad 1 crash on Friday...

News Briefs: 2.26.07
Webb Wins First National Indoor Title
Alan Webb, a former schoolboy phenom, won the mile in 4:01.07 at the U.S. Indoor championships on Sunday. Webb first made a splash in 2001 when he broke Jim Ryun's high school record in the outdoor mile. He won the Olympic trials in the 1,500 meters in 2004 and the U.S. outdoor title at the distance in 05. This was his first national indoor title.
Christian Cantwell won the shot put at 71 feet, 3 1/4 inches to beat Reese Hoffa and Dan Taylor, the top three competitors in the world this year.

Olympian Gardner Survives Plane Crash
Olympic wrestling champion Rulon Gardner and two Utah men were rescued by a Lake Powell fisherman Sunday after surviving a small plane crash near Good Hope Bay the day before.
Gardner was a passenger in the Cirrus SR 22 along with pilot Randy Brooks and his brother, Leslie Brooks. The plane was flying low when it struck the water and all three men were able to get out of the plane before it sank.
Authorities are uncertain of the exact location of the crash, but the three men swam for more than an hour in 44-degree water before reaching shore and then spent the night without shelter. None suffered life-threatening injuries, authorities said.
Gardner pulled one of the most stunning upsets in Olympic history at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, winning the gold medal in Greco-Roman wrestling by ending Alexander Karelin's 13-year international winning streak. In 2004 in Athens, Gardner won the bronze medal.
Oilers to Retire Messier's No. 11
Mark Messier, a six-time Stanley Cup winner, will have his No. 11 jersey retired by the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night when his No. 11 jersey is retired and raised to the rafters of Rexall Place prior to the Oilers' home game against Wayne Gretzky and the Phoenix Coyotes.
Also: The Sharks acquired defenseman Craig Rivet from the Montreal Canadiens on Sunday, adding a veteran defenseman for the playoff push. San Jose traded defenseman Josh Gorges and its first-round draft pick this summer for Rivet and a fifth-round selection in 2008.
Former heavyweight boxing champion Lennox Lewis has again dismissed speculation he is planning to come out of retirement for a rematch with Vitali Klitschko. Lewis, who retired after beating Klitschko in six rounds in June 2003, was reported to be back in training at age 41. "I have no idea how these rumors get started, but I'm a man of my word. I will remain retired," Lewis said. ... Levi Leipheimer won the Amgen Tour of California on Sunday having never trailed in the eight-day race that ended in Long Beach. Leipheimer, a three-time top-10 Tour de France finisher and Discovery Channel rider, completed 639.2-mile race with a 21-second advantage over Jens Voigt of Germany. ... Afton Schrimpf won the women's Elite Division in the National Bicycle League's Lake Mead Nationals on Sunday at Boulder City, Nev., earning 12 world ranking points for Team USA's BMX squad. This was the second of six qualifying races to determine three male and two female riders to compete in the inaugural BMX competition in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. ... Trotting Triple Crown winner Glidemaster was chosen harness racing's 2006 Horse of the Year on Sunday. Glidemaster, who set a trotting single-season record of $1.9 million in earnings, won the Hambletonian in stakes-record time and added the Kentucky Futurity and Yonkers Trot to sweep the Triple Crown.

Couric Meets the Press
Speaking to reporters Sunday at the Television Critics Association press tour, the new anchor of the "
But not too much so: "We've been talking a lot about how can the evening newscast be different and look different, and yet also not alienate its core viewers," she says.
Couric spent some time earlier this month at a series of town-hall meetings across the country, talking with viewers about what they want from TV news. A big theme, she says, was "more perspective."
"They want news stories and greater context. They may want some more historical background," she says. "I know there are limitations given that the evening newscast is 22 minutes long. But I got the distinct sense that they want us to go a little bit deeper."
Couric would also like to incorporate more interviews into the broadcast, as that was one of her strengths on "Today." And she hopes that the relationship she developed with viewers during her 15 years as co-anchor of the morning show will carry over to CBS.
"[I]t really is a very different animal," she says of her new job. "But I guess the common thread is that I'm a part of the broadcast, and whatever qualities I have that people have connected with will still be there. I'm not going to suddenly be in a ... straitjacket and not be able to have any sort of who I am as a person come out."
Which is not to say that the "CBS Evening News" is suddenly about to go "soft," although she jokes that "I'm trying to convince
The question of whether Couric has the hard-news chops to lead an evening newscast has persisted since CBS announced her hiring in April. Both she and her boss, CBS News chief Sean McManus, point out that she covered plenty of serious news on "Today," and Couric also notes that the fact that she also did celebrity interviews and lifestyle segments doesn't necessarily detract from her abilities as a journalist.
"[S]ometimes people forget that I have done a lot of very serious things. It's almost as if you do the fun stuff well, then you can't be serious," she says. "Because I don't think people feel if you do the serious stuff well that you can't necessarily be fun."
Couric and McManus both realize that until she actually goes in front of a CBS camera in September, such conversations will probably continue. Which they don't necessarily see as a bad thing.
"So the celebrity is something, as much as it's a positive, it's drawing an enormous amount of attention to our program," McManus says. "In the end, all that attention could be completely wasted if we don't put on a show that the American people don't respect and like, but I think we will."

Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
I know nothing about Blue Ray or HD other than HD-DVD is supposed to be better but it is losing the bidding war.
Any way I have a 1080i TV, would my TV take advantage of a Blue Ray player?
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
yes both can.
btw, it's Blu-ray. ;) and it's better than hd dvd for few reason. blu-ray has finally caught up and has more studios but only thing is that it's expensive. price will drop soon if you wait or get ps3 which is best deal in the market and upgradable to profile 2.0. but really, even if you have profile 1.0, you can STILL watch blu-ray movies that has 1.1 or 2.0 features, only that you can't access them.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
Thanks for the info. I know that the average person cannot tell the difference between 1080i and 1080p, at least I can't. I just wanted to make sure that my TV will take advantage of the HD.
I really don't care which is better. I have been waiting on a purchase for a time when the market has decided which format it will be going with. Now it looks like it will be blu-ray.
You are saying that the PS3 is upgradeable to the 2.0 profile right?
I will be using component cables BTW.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
it'll work fine with component cables. and yes, ps3 is upgradable to profile 2.0. right now it's 1.1 so upcoming firmware, it'll update ps3 to 2.0 when movies that needs it is released.
easy to notice the difference between 1080p (progressive) and 1080i (interlaced) is to bring up a fast moving scene i.e. car run by, you should see wave-alike lines at the end of moving car in interlaced mode. you won't see that in progressive mode. i'm sure you know that already. :)
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
Thanks for all the info.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
NaitoSan needs to work on his english.
Blu-Ray is only better because hd-dvd is dead.
The ps3 is a mixed bag compared to stand alone players when blu-ray movies are concerned. The ps3 does not support all the output formats listed in 3.0 spec, but could potentially do so if Sony wanted. As well the picture quality from the ps3 has been reported to be of lesser quality of a number of the better stand alone units. The PS3 as it is a software player, can be upgraded for as long as Sony wants to.
Using component cables is fine, until Blu-ray movies start using the BD+ DRM. At which point the video will be artificially downgraded to regular sdtv quality. To resolve that problem you need to use HDMI.
As for the resolution and your tv, most good blu-ray players will take a 1080p signal, and convert it into 1080i, giving you a virtually identical picture.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
So why is blu ray the norm now?
Its more expensive than HD DVD and HD DVD is Ford where as Blu Ray is the BMW.
Why couldn't people go with the cheaper more easy to buy standard?
I actually thought BLU Ray was dying cuz of it being to pricey but people love it and studios are going to it.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
You really do have no idea how hard for me to learn English. Thanks.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
Furthermore, while I appreciate the fact that you are trying to learn English, I will not stop in my efforts to improve your usage of english.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
Now it is purely educational to discuss exactly why Fox, just days before siding with hd-dvd switched. Most on the hd-dvd side say they were bought off, but most on the blu-ray side say it isn't true. Just as it is a educational discussion to figure out why a number of companies decided to invent the blu-ray standard after hd-dvd had been almost complete. As well as why people have sided with a more expensive format, which only has the benefit of 15gig more space and more DRM.
None of that changes the simple fact that blu-ray is victorious over hd-dvd.
Re: Blue Ray on a 1080i TV
If nVJoe wants to know exactly why Blu-ray is better then I will explain in details. I have expressed my opinion on why Blu-ray is better in general and this isn't thesis paper otherwise I'd backup my opinion with more than several references.
But to be honest, you didn't backup your position on why Blu-ray is better because HD DVD is dead. Or your comments on Profile 3.0.
Do you know Profile 3.0 refers to audio only Blu-ray? It can be done via software and Sony said they will update PS3 when needed. But it's mainly for Blu-ray audio player. There's not much infomation on Profile 3.0 so we shouldn't worry about it. At least for now. There's rumors about Profile 4.0 where it may add iHD and other features.
I still stand by my opinion that Blu-ray is better.
-higher storage capacity than hd dvd discs (50 gb vs 30 gb)
-higher bandwidth (48mbit/sec vs 30mbit/sec)
-has more studio support (more movies)
-improved with codec/audio and now matches to hd dvd if not better
-has gaming support
But of course, only thing that keeps people from buying Blu-ray because:
-high cost
-region coding
-excessive copy protection
-players that aren't future-proof
Technically, Blu-ray is superior. If you're able to afford it, that is. Or wait until price drops. Region coding is old news... DVD has them. Soon all players will be profile 2.0 ready, and I'll bet that company will offer sort of rebate for early adopters. I'm not sure about excessive copy protection but it doesn't bother me much. Much larger storage capacity discs (100GB+) are on way in near future.
I used to HD DVD supporter but not anymore. And I hate combo discs. ;)

I hide in alleys or behind parked cars, behind dumpsters or trash cans, behind coffee shops or nightclubs, dimly lit parking lots, parking lots with way too much light, the periphery, Burger King bathrooms - waiting for victims.
When I see one, I leap out of the shadows, overpower him, and make him fill out my compatibility test. Six questions, all multiple choice (though I also recommend a brief bio and favorite movies). If he passes, I give him my phone number and tell him to call me because I'd really be interested in a relationship. This is just a ruse. As the sense cancels his adrenaline, I lunge.
I need about 3 pints of blood every night to survive. Sometimes this forces me to be less than picky about the source. I once bit Vanilla Ice. Another night, the singer of INXS. One time I siphoned blood from a drainpipe filled with dead rats. Another night: Gwen Stefani. After I'm done drinking my victim's blood, I dispose of the corpse and take the bus home. I don't have a car, so I rely on public transportation. I work second shift at Borders.
When I can't get blood, I drink Berry Bop, a Japanese cola comprised of 90% amphetamines and 10% berry flavor derived from amphetamines. If I drink too many cans, my pulse races and my mouth gets filled with a chalky substance that I believe to be bits of ground-up teeth. Berry Bop withdrawal makes one sweat profusely, which can be bad for pores. These are the things a gay vampire must consider.
I fight werewolves. I frequent haunted houses. I'm learning how to teleport.
I'd call it an alternative lifestyle, except that makes it sound like I had a choice.
In my first year of college, I was known as a poet. Mostly by myself, but also by one or two girls I showed my poems to. My poetry was a response to the anomie of post-adolescent but pre-anything-by-The-Flaming-Lips angst. At a certain point in life, death inevitably creeps into the margins of one's notebooks. I stayed up late at night, pouring myself into my work, writing a postscript to a life all but written.
One night, following a poetry slam that had to be adjourned early due to my intense recital, I was walking down the street a block from my house. As I approached the streetlight on the corner of Preston and Commercial, a man in a dashing Armani cape jumped out of the shadows and asked me, politely, if he could drink my blood. Something about his request, and the fact that he said it with a noticeable lisp, made me suspicious, so I asked him if he was a gay vampire.
"No," he said. "Although I see how you could make that assumption, since I am well-groomed, and this stylish wardrobe does betray my excellent fashion sense, which I'm not ashamed to say is a huge part of how I define myself as a vampiric-but-definitely-heterosexual male seeking empowerment in a society that extols beauty, but equates it with a feminine vulnerability that to most men is an unobtainable ideal."
My brain eventually realized he was done talking and sent a signal to my body to nod. Unfortunately, I muffed the nodding motion, lifting my head way too high and giving him a clear view of my slender, sexy neck. He immediately lunged at me and sunk his perfectly formed teeth into my jugular. Gay vampires' fangs secrete venom that is chemically similar to amyl nitrate and produces a similar euphoria, accompanied by paralysis. The next few minutes were an orgy of chemical bliss that I can't really describe without hitting the upper limit of how gay you're allowed to sound when describing something, so I won't.
After my assailant was done sucking my blood, he dragged me into an alley and left me there, still paralyzed. As I lay on the pavement for the next few hours, I found myself intensely contemplating the nearby streetlight, partially to maintain my sanity, partially because I'd become self-conscious about my complexion and knew that sodium-vapor bulbs were unflattering. Finally I lost consciousness. When I woke up in a hospital the next day, I found out via a chart above my bed that I was a gay vampire. I also received word that I'd been expelled from college for exposing myself during a poetry slam. For reasons I can't fully articulate, I also blame gay vampires for this.
