The Voice
Blake Shelton Announces New Album Titled Based On a True Story (PHOTO)
When he's not busy being a mentor for other artists on the hit show The Voice, Blake Shelton is busy working on his own music. Today (Feb 11) he visited the Today show to announce the title and release date of his new album (via The Boot).
The highly-anticipated Based On a True Story ... will hit shelves March 26, just one day after the Season 4 premiere of The Voice!
He also debuted the music video for the album's first single "Sure Be Cool If You Did" on the morning talk show, joking that "any show that purposely says they have 130 days of drinking in a row, that's the show I want to debut my video on because they'll be drunk enough that they'll actually think it's a good video!"
Are you excited for Blake's new album? Tell us below!

Drew McFedries stabbed while working club security
Drew McFedries stabbed while working club security - Mixed Martial Arts NewsTen year MMA veteran Drew McFedries was stabbed while working security at the Chorus Line, a downmarket gentleman's club in the Quad Cities.
Reports says McFedries ejected 42 year old Calvin Hammock from the premises earlier in the evening. Hammock returned to the club just before midnight armed with a knife and attempted to re enter the venue. McFedries backed him up and eventually pinned him to a wall, when the alleged perpetrator reached around and stabbed McFedries around the left shoulder blade.
McFedries forced Hammock to retreat, and sought medical attention.
Hammock, pictured below, is behind bars at the Scott County Jail. He faces charges of going armed with intent and causing willful injury.
McFedries is expected to recover fully.

Swamp ash or basswood body, bolt-on maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and Paul Gagon-designed neck humbucker.
The G&L ASAT Classic Bluesboy is a factory-modded version of Leo's final word on the traditional single-cutaway bolt-on axe. For players looking for the unmistakable warmth of a classic humbucker in the neck position, the Bluesboy delivers with a well-balanced pairing of a G&L alnico humbucker designed by Paul Gagon and a single-coil G&L Magnetic Field Design bridge pickup designed by Leo Fender.
Framed in a classic boxed-steel bridge, the single-coil MFD bridge pickup delivers crisp attack with complex harmonics while individual brass saddles offer modern levels of intonation refinement. Flip to the neck 'bucker and you'll discover all the charismatic warmth you could ask for. Put 'em together and you'll find yourself immersed in exploring the limits of this guitar's surprising versatility.

Comments about G&L Tribute ASAT Classic Bluesboy Electric Guitar:
I bought this G&L Asat Tribute on a whim....and I could not be happier with what I received for the price. Took it out of the box tuned it and started playing. Pup's sound good, setup was good, and the finish is very nice! The neck pocket is very tight, I haven't anything to complain about on this guitar. Musician's Friend did everything right. Over the years I have bought 4 or 5 guitars from them and have never had a problem with them about returns (only had one and that was not their fault) I will continue to do business with them in the future. This guitar is much better than a MIM Fender. It's not an American Standard but for the money it is a very nice little guitar! So far I am very pleased with it.

Comments about G&L Tribute ASAT Classic Bluesboy Electric Guitar:
Really, really solid guitar for the price. Would take this baby over a MIM any day. I've had this for about 6 months now and it hasn't let me down.
The bridge pickup is super solid and very bright. Can handle distortion with no problem.
Bridge, and Neck pickups sound very solid together. A great tone between too bright and too dark.
Bridge pickup is the only minor complaint I have. The tone is slightly flat but still sounds great none the less.
Would recommend this over a MIM anyday. G&L's are very high quality.

Newbies, Post in Welcome Central to open up the boards
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
http://www.1john57.com/universalistfaq.htmI can't quote the article here because without formatting it's unreadeble.The article is pointing out contradictions in CLT and other works from Knoch.As usual the focus is on eon. But this time it's about the number of eons (according to Knoch)
Here is the next problem that we have here with the CLNT: John 6:51 I am the living Bread which descends out of heaven. If anyone should be eating of this Bread, he shall be living for the eon. Now the Bread also, which I shall be giving for the sake of the life of the world, is My flesh." Do I understand this correctly here? THE eon. Is this the same eon where marriage is also existing also? But wait a minute here, Jesus is clearly talking about the living bread that is clearly eternal and endless, is this not true? 1Timothy 6:16 clearly shows that ONLY The Son is immortal. Immortal is clearly eternal.
Furthermore in John 17: 21 that they may all be one, according as Thou, Father, art in Me, and I in Thee, that they also may be in Us, that the world should be believing that Thou dost commission Me.22 "And I have given them the glory which Thou has given Me, that they may be one, according as We are One, ....the clnt clearly teaches that the Father is in Jesus and Jesus is in the Father who is endless and eternal. Verse 21 also clearly shows that the resurrected believer in Christ is also ONE with the Father AND the Son. This clearly contradicts John 6:51, for the Father is clearly BEYOND "...living for the eon."
How does one observe "the eons"? What does the eon look like? Taste like? Smell like? Feel like? I did not realize that time could be seen. However, the world can be seen as the KJV states. Hebrews 11:3 By faith we are apprehending the eons to adjust to a declaration of God, so that what is being observed has not come out of what is appearing.
And how about this one: Hebrews 7: 24 yet that One, because of His remaining for the eon, has an inviolate priesthood. Jesus is remaining for the eon? Remember this is the same exact terminology used to describe how mankind is marrying. Is Jesus dead right now? If not, where is He right this very minute? Does Jesus Christ still remain after the first earth is destroyed by fire as talked about in 2 Peter? Does Jesus also remain way way after the new heavens and the new earth wherein only dwells righteousness in 2 Peter as well? Hmmmmm. What Knoch will fail to admit because he cannot affort to admit this, is that there is a "aion" that is infinite as described in Revelation 22. I counted at least three "eons" before what Jesus spoke of regarding marriage. Knoch used the singular of eon. That is pure error. What scripture is telling us is that there is one WORLD which is of course the one that we are living in now. Then the SECOND world is the one without sin and is without marriage. Knoch cannot reconcile his blunder. You used the correct translation by using "eons" HOWEVER the greek scripture in that verse is in the singular. Hence the error.
Yes, "for the eon" is correct. The Greek says literally: "eis ton aiona" εις τον αιωνα or "into the eon." Young's Literal has "he shall live to the age." In the next eon, called the millennium or 1000 years, we will live THROUGH the duration of that eon and not have to worry about dying.
Imo "into" doesn't mean "completely".For me into the aion can me the first hour of that aion. The first 100 years. Or any duration.
This guy's extremely orthodox conservative. He has issues with MANY things. I'd think he very much dislikes Knoch and his translation. (Isn't he an AV1611 guy?) Quoting Gary A and Tony N in this post you posted some time back Tony;"The Bible speaks of at least 5 "aions" and perhaps many more. If there were "aions" in the past. This must mean that each one of them have ended for they are now past! The New Testament writers spoke of "the present wicked aion" which ended during that very generation. Obviously, it was followed by another "aion"-- the "aion" in which we presently live. If there are "aions" to come, it must mean that this one we live in will also end." http://www.tentmaker.org/forum/index.php?topic=6935.msg77454#msg77454
can you tell me whose web site you got it from? Never mimd, I notice it is 1stJohn5_7's site.Why on earth would you post anything from there to this site? He hates Universalists and anything related to that. I have dealt with him at length before. He is a King James Only person as well.

As every American family and small business knows, budgets are important and must balance to be sustainable. Washington hasn't been operating within that framework for years, though. House Republicans have had enough of this 'Washington exceptionalism,' and today introduced a budget for the federal government that will balance in just 10 years.
Budgets reveal priorities, and House Republicans have revealed ours today. We want to build a stronger, more prosperous future for this generation and the next; we want to protect the promise of Medicare; we want to guarantee accountability for the use of taxpayer dollars; we want to preserve personal freedoms and pursue commonsense governance. The American people deserve this, and so we've offered a balanced budget that encourages growth and opportunity for all while paving the way for the country to get out of debt.
It takes courage to put forth such bold ideas. My thanks go out to Chairman Paul Ryan and to all of the Republican members of the House Budget Committee who led the way in making this stand. Although it may not please foreign debt holders, future generations of Americans will be thankful for such leadership, and I hope the President and Senate will follow suit with ideas of their own – ideas that will actually balance.

Charter moves on debt; a director resigns
Charter Communications subsidiary Charter Communications Holding is making a cash tender offer for certain outstanding senior notes. The move is designed to reduce the parent company's consolidated interest expense.

Separately, Jonathan Dolgen has resigned from Charter's board of directors, effective immediately.
Dolgen said he is resigning for personal reasons and to make time available for other interests. "I have enjoyed having an opportunity to work with Paul Allen and the other members of the board and with the management of the company, particularly Neil Smit," he said.
Dolgen, the former chairman of the Viacom Entertainment Group, is principal of Wood River Ventures.
Charter currently has no plans to fill his board seat.

1. How do you differ from your general election opponents in background positions or philosophy?
My opponent and I have completely different political philosophies. I believe in limited government, and my opponent is on record supporting a dramatic expansion of the size and cost of the federal government. Ultimately, she is another big government liberal who thinks more government is the answer.
On the other hand, I want to keep taxes low and get government out of the way of job creators so that we grow our economy and help people who don't have jobs get back to work.
2. What are your top four priorities if you're elected?
My top priorities are to: 1) reduce federal spending; 2) keep taxes low to encourage economic growth and job creation; 3) support the men and women of our military in order to maintain a strong national defense, and finally; 4) ensure we leave a prosperous, thriving nation to our children and grandchildren.
3. Do you support President Obama's health care law? If yes, which aspects are most important to retain? If no, what suggestions do you have to contain health care costs and insure more Americans have coverage?
I have been a consistent opponent of Obamacare. It is an enormous expansion of government that drives up healthcare costs for North Carolina families.
In contrast, I cosponsored the Reform Americans Can Afford Act. This legislation lowers costs for patients with pre-existing conditions through the establishment of state reinsurance programs; it would lower healthcare premiums by up to 20% for families and small businesses; and it gives small businesses the power to pool together to get insurance at lower prices.
It does all this without massive government overreach, while also bringing down costs—which Obamacare has demonstrably failed to do.
4. What policy changes do you support to help spur job growth in North Carolina and U.S.?
In short, we need to slash the job-killing regulations and bureaucracy that originate in Washington, D.C. while focusing on keeping taxes and spending in check.
That's why I opposed President Obama's misguided stimulus plan. The Obama administration told Americans that if his trillion dollar stimulus package became law unemployment would drop to 5.5%. Instead unemployment today is about 8%, our national debt hit $16 trillion for the first time ever and thousands of North Carolina families still can't find work.
I opposed this wasteful stimulus bill because I knew big government wouldn't grow our economy—it would only increase our national debt. After all, the real sources of job creation are entrepreneurs and small businesses.
If we get government off job creators' backs, by reducing harmful red-tape and government bureaucracy and by keeping taxes low, we will get back to what America does best: growing our economy and creating jobs.
5. What specific steps do you support to help reduce the federal debt balance the budget and trim government?
We should rein in government spending and save money anywhere and everywhere we can. That's why I support and voted for H.Con.Res. 112, the federal budget plan, which saves taxpayers about $4 trillion over ten years.
It's a comprehensive solution that reduces federal spending to 20 percent of GDP, down from the budget busting 24 percent today. This is a nearly 20 percent reduction in spending that would get us well on our way to shrinking the size of the federal government and taming the budget.
Elisabeth Motsinger
Party: Democrat
Age: 55
Family: Husband, John. Children Christian and Lysandra Sykes, John Motsinger Jr.
Address: 1411 West First St., Winston-Salem, N.C. (campaign headquarters)
6548 Woodmere Drive, Walkertown, NC (residence)
Occupation, past jobs: Physician Assistant since 1989, in practice at The Salem Center since 1998
Education: Physician Assistant training at Wake Forest University. Completing master's degree in bioethics at Wake Forest University.
Political experience: Twice-elected member of Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Board of Education (2006 and 2010)
Campaign website: www.nc5th.us
1. How do you differ from your general election opponent in background positions or philosophy?
I believe that members of Congress should work on behalf of ALL the citizens in the district. Nothing is more important than family, and elected representatives should support policies that protect and strengthen families. I will work for what is in the best interests of the 5th District, and will not cater to partisan ideologies. I have a proven record of working with those whose opinions and values differ from my own.
2. What are your top four priorities if you're elected?
I will work to ensure that all Americans have access to basic decent healthcare. I will support policies that protect federal funding for public education. I will promote a woman's right to choose and access contraception, and will work to prevent government intrusion into healthcare decisions. I will work to preserve Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and other fiscally responsible safety nets that protect our seniors, our children, and those who need temporary assistance to survive.
3. Do you support President Obama's health care law? If yes, which aspects are most important to retain? If no, what suggestions do you have to contain health care costs and insure more Americans have coverage?
The Affordable Care Act is an attempt to ensure that all Americans have access to basic, decent healthcare, and I support that. I also support the act's provision that insurance companies cannot deny coverage due to pre-existing conditions. American healthcare is among the most costly in the world, partly because it is a patchwork of programs and not a system that is focused on the health and wellbeing of the patient. If everyone had equal access to healthcare, including preventative care, we would spend less public money on critical care situations.
4.What policy changes do you support to help spur job growth in North Carolina and the U.S.?
Tax incentives should be available to true small businesses and farms, whose owners reinvest in the local community. Companies that export jobs overseas should be penalized. We should invest in green energy technologies that will create good-paying jobs and protect our resources. School lunch programs should purchase local produce rather than commodity produce from corporate farming operations.
5. What specific steps do you support to help reduce the federal debt balance the budget and trim government?
I will support policies that strengthen the middle class by requiring all Americans to pay their fair share in taxes. Military funding must be adequate to maintain our national security, but we cannot continue to finance costly wars. Our first economic priority must be to create good-paying jobs. Trimming the debt cannot be a priority in a recession.

Strawweight Bec Hyatt had a "run in" with Fallon Fox before Invicta 5 fight - Bloody Elbow
However, only hours before her sanctioned bout, Hyatt had another heated exchange with transgender fighter Fallon Fox in the hotel lobby. Hyatt explained the altercation on her Facebook page:
It's true that Fallon & I had a "run in" on fight morning in the hotel lobby. Nothing physical, just an unwelcome distraction from my fight later that night. Long story short... I was on my phone Facebook training, as I do, when my husband told me to look up to the second floor balcony. Sure enough I was greeted by Fallon (along with another female fighter??) staring meanie daggers at me & if looks could kill... boy would I be dead LOL!! A Fallon Fox mean mug makes Jasminka Cive's look child's play
As you'd all know though, I have a chip on my shoulder myself & am very stubborn, so I gladly partook in the silent staring contest for a minute or so until I inquired as to why she was actually staring at me. Fallon replied with "I'll do what I want", to which I laughed, said she is a joke & went back to my Facebook training in preparation of the nights contest. I can't remember exactly what Fallon then said, but it was along the lines of "I'm coming down there" in an angrier tone & as she went to put on her jacket, Invicta Fighting Championships matchmaker Janet Martin came out of an elevator & started talking to me. When I looked back up, Fallon & her friend were gone. The second half of our exchange was caught on camera but I won't be releasing it
Hyatt explained that Fox did apologize at the after party but the whole thing was "an unwelcome distraction." She also makes it clear that she believes Fallon was the one who started the talk about the incident.
*Alright, enough media attention for Fox. Lose interest already and she will stop trolling the media.

Please let them cast an actress who is more butt-kicking than wimpy Molly Ringwald. I'd go with Jessica Chastain (viz - taking down Nazis in The Debt) or Rachel McAdams (blowing Cillian Murphy away in Red Eye.) McAdams might be too "old", but CGI and lighting can do wonders.
Speaking of Cillian Murphy - wouldn't mind seeing him as Flagg.

Hi Everyone,
My family moved to Oregon about 5 months ago from Florida. We have an 18 month old son that was born at 29 weeks and weighed 2 lb 4 oz. I was wondering if anyone has received treatment for their child through the Early Intervention Program in Oregon. If yes, how did you like the results?
Thank you,

My name is Ray and I am a Sales Representative for Discount Ramps. I had no idea what this title or position would mean to me in the future. After 5 years (and counting!) of dealing with all sorts of customers in all different walks of life, I realize that we INDEED provide valuable and necessary products for people!
I even bring my work home with me at times explaining to my wife and children about trailers we see on the roads and how we provide ramps for the drivers to load items on. I explain to the them about when they see motorcycles in the back of pick-up trucks, that if they used our ramps, life would've been easier for them to load and unload. Sometimes they see people walking their dogs, and the dogs are straining to keep up the pace with the owners. I tell my kids that we actually have strollers that the dogs would be able to enjoy with the owners happily pushing them in! Sometimes, at the grocery store or movie theaters, we see mobility carriers on the back of vehicles. I tell my family that those carriers are vital for people to get around town so the people can use their mobility chairs to go shopping or visit relatives.
I am enjoying my career with Discount Ramps .Com as it provides me the opportunity to offer the necessary items that can greatly affect our daily lives. That alone provides me with a reassuring feeling that my job is an extremely important one to have and be proud of! There is a great sense of pride knowing that I am part of a team providing a valuable service working for a company such as Discount Ramps!

Beckoning Cistern
81 Vine Street
Seattle Public Utilities 1% for Art
Beckoning Cistern is a sculpture component of the "Growing Vine Street" revitalization effort, which involved property owners, neighborhood groups, and various City departments, including Seattle Public Utilities (SPU), to create a "green street."
The galvanized aluminum cistern, shaped like an open hand, collects roof water flow from the 81 Vine Street Building, and, when full, spills the water into an adjacent planter. Demonstrating "green" practices, the sculpture reinforces and brings public awareness to SPU's water conservation efforts. It also demonstrates natural cleansing of stormwater through planted drainage systems, also integral to SPU's mission.

Kaiser: Hens looking to surge in second halfWritten by Guest Author | | firstname.lastname@example.com
Before the Minor League All-Star break, the Toledo Mud Hens were four games under .500, and looking like they were on their way to missing the playoffs for the seventh straight season. A season that at the beginning had so much promise — with the return of manager Larry Parrish and a roster that boasted some well-known names — was slipping away.
Now, with the All-Star break in the rear view mirror, the Mud Hens sit one game over .500 and are poised to make a second half run and reach the playoffs.
The offseason brought hope to the Mud Hens. Returning to Toledo were players such as Ben Guez, Hernan Perez, Jordan Lennerton and Duane Below, all of whom have had success with the Hens in the past. However, the biggest offseason move was to bring back Mike "King" Hessman. The minor league slugger had not played with Toledo since 2009, but was the Mud Hens' all time home run leader (140 HRs thru 2009).
Other names that headlined the roster were former Cleveland Indian Ezequiel Carrera, the highly touted pitching prospect Robbie Ray, and the Tigers' top catching prospect James McCann. Despite the solid Triple-A roster, the Hens got off to a sluggish start, going a mere 10-16 in April. The offense struggled to score right out of the gate, while the pitching wasn't preventing runs.
However, since a putrid first month of the season, the Mud Hens have posted a record of 42-35, and have jumped right back into the International League West division
race. After starting slowly, Guez, Lennerton and Brandon Douglas have picked it up as of late. Perez, Carrera and McCann have been as good as advertised all season. Despite a few rocky starts from each, Ray, Drew VerHagen and Kyle Lobstein are finding consistency in the rotation.
The Mud Hens have had to deal with some of their key players getting called up to the Detroit Tigers. Toledo has lost the power hitting J.D. Martinez to the Tigers for what seems like the rest of the season, as he is tearing it up with the big club. Eugenio Suarez only played in 12 games with the Hens before earning his call-up. Ray, VerHagen and a few bullpen arms have all contributed in Detroit this season, yet the Mud Hens just continue to compete and climb back into the playoff race.
The Hens are riding a five-game win streak since the start of the second half, and sit only 4.0 games back of the division lead and 3.0 back of the second wild card spot. They're record has rocketed to 52-51, which marks the first time all season they've been above .500.
In a season that has seen Hessman crowned "King of Home Runs" in the International League as well as among active Minor League Baseball players, the Toledo Mud Hens are looking to accomplish more goals as a team. If they can continue to play winning baseball down the stretch, they will be the first Mud Hens team since 2007 to make it to the International League playoffs. Parrish has been there before, and I'm sure he's itching to get back there. The last two times Parrish managed the Mud Hens in the playoffs, they took home the Governers' Cup (2005, 2006). Their chances weren't looking good at the beginning of the season, but the Toledo Mud Hens are now right in the thick of the hunt for the playoffs. If they can get back to the promised land of the playoffs, who knows what can happen? This is baseball, the sport where anything and everything happens. Maybe, just maybe, we'll find the baseball gods smiling down at us while cheering "Holy Toledo!"
Cameron J. Kaiser is a 2014 graduate of St. Francis de Sales High School heading to Florida Gulf Coast University this fall. He blogs about the Detroit Tigers on his website ttowntiger.com.

Hi ladies. Luke has to have his tonsils out ASAP. We are on a wait list. We are definitely scheduled for April 11, but he has to be on antibiotics until then. Anyone been on antibiotics for more than 20 days? That is just so upsetting. His poor tummy. We have been on and off antibiotics since Feb 2. The dr prescribed a probiotic and said to up his Mirlax. Any advice?
If your little ones had their tonsils out, any words of wisdom? What did you feed him/her? What did you do at home as I was told to stay home with him for 10 days-no daycare. My mom cannot help and the in-laws don't live around my area. DH does not get sick time, just unpaid time so that is not an option. I am stressed at 10 days out as a teacher of 3rd and 4th grade. Getting enough work for them to do is a nightmare!
Any thoughts?

The body of a missing Houston mother was found over the weekend near Midland after the woman's estranged boyfriend admitted to her murder, police said.
Deputies spent Sunday looking for the woman's body in the 7000-block of South County Road 1200 in Midland County.
According to the Midland County Sheriff's Office and the Houston Police Department, 31-year-old Michelle Warner was found partially buried on private property just after 6 p.m.
According to HPD, Warner's ex-boyfriend, Mark Castellano, confessed to her murder and was taken into custody in Harris County. He told investigators where to look for the woman.
Authorities searched by foot, mounted patrols, and helicopter before finding Warner.
HPD investigators said Warner was murdered in the Houston area. Castellano then drove their child to Odessa to stay with his parents before returning to Houston to get the mother's body. He drove back to west Texas where he partially buried her body in a ditch on private property.
Family members said they hadn't heard from the mother in over a week. This after she disappeared following an argument she had with her boyfriend.
"It's still heartbreaking, but I'm happy her family has closure and that we have closure and hopefully there will be answers," said family friend Becky Barclay. "I think she was a very special girl, and there are a lot of people that are going to miss her—especially her kids."
Warner's three-year-old son is now safe back in Houston.
Authorities charged Castellano with murder.

Spurs needed a late equaliser from Gylfi Sigurdsson to snatch a 2-2 draw and keep their hopes of a top-four finish ticking over.
But Andre Villas-Boas' men are now level on points with Chelsea and just two ahead of Arsenal, having played a game more than both their London rivals, and Holtby knows there is a lot of work still to do.
The German midfielder is looking forward to the rest of the season and has called on his team-mates to rise to the challenge.
"At the end of the day, if we want to play in the Champions League we want to win games like these," said Holtby.
"But we've still got decisive games against City at home and against Chelsea away, which are going to be big games.
"The games against Southampton and Sunderland are also ones we have to win to get those points to stay up there in the top four.
"I'm confident that we can do it because we have a lot of quality in our side."

Article ID: 969084 - View products that this article applies to.
On This Page
This article discusses the Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) 7.0 client update that enables you to use the new Remote Desktop Services features. These features are introduced in Windows 7 and in Windows Server 2008 R2. These features are available for computers that are running Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3), Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1), and Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (SP2).
The RDC 7.0 client can be used to connect to legacy terminal servers or to remote desktops as before. However, the new features that are mentioned in this article are available only when the client connects to a remote computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2.
New features in the RDC 7.0 client updateThe RDC 7.0 client update contains the following new features.
Web Single Sign-On (SSO) and Web forms-based authenticationRemote Desktop (RD) Web Access now uses forms-based authentication to improve the user experience. Web SSO makes sure that after a user is logged on, no additional passwords are required for RD Gateway, RD Session Host servers and RemoteApp programs.
For security, Web SSO requires remote applications to be signed using a certificate from a trusted issuer.
Access to personal virtual desktops by using RD Connection BrokerUsers can access personal virtual desktops when they use the new Remote Desktop Virtualization Host in Windows Server 2008 R2. Personal desktops are assigned to users on a one-to-one basis and maintain state over time.
Access to virtual desktop pools by using RD Connection BrokerUsers can access virtual desktop pools when they use the new Remote Desktop Virtualization Host in Windows Server 2008 R2. Pooled desktops are shared between multiple users, and all changes a user makes are typically rolled back when the user logs off.
Status & disconnect system tray iconA single system tray icon enables users to see all of their remote connections. The user can disconnect all or individual connections that use this icon. The icon appears only when opening RDP connections which are associated with a RemoteApp and Desktop Connection feed.
RD Gateway-based device redirection enforcementIn Windows Server 2008, it was possible for non-Microsoft Remote Desktop clients to override the gateway device redirection controls. In Windows Server 2008 R2, device redirection settings are defined in RD Gateway and can be configured not to be overridden.
RD Gateway system and logon messagesSystem and logon messages can be added to RD Gateway and displayed to the remote desktop user. System messages can be used to inform users of server maintenance issues such as shutdowns and restarts. Logon messages can be used to display a logon notice to users before they gain access to remote resources.
RD Gateway background authorization & authenticationBackground authentication and authorization requests are performed after a configured session timeout is reached. Sessions for users whose property information has not changed are not affected, and authentication and authorization requests are sent in the background.
RD Gateway idle & session time-outsConfigurable idle and session time-outs with RD Gateway provide better control of users who connect through RD Gateway. An idle time-out lets the user reclaim resources that are used by inactive user sessions without affecting the user's session or data. This helps free up resources on the RD Gateway server.
NAP remediation with RD GatewayNAP remediation allows you to manage remote clients by updating them with the latest software updates and settings. This helps keep remote clients in compliance with network security policies.
Windows Media Player redirectionWindows Media Player Redirection enables content hosted in Windows Media Player to be redirected to the client for decoding on users' computers. This improves the quality of the video and makes sure that video and audio are always in sync. This works for both full Windows Media Player and Windows Media Player controls hosted in Web pages.
Bidirectional audioYou can redirect audio recording devices such as microphones on the client computer. This is ideal for applications such as Windows 7 voice recognition, and applications that record audio.
Multiple monitor supportIn Windows Vista and in Windows Server 2008, Terminal Services supported only monitor spanning. Remote Desktop Services now includes multiple monitor support for up to 16 monitors, and works for both Remote Desktop and RemoteApp programs.
Note For connections with multiple monitor support enabled, AeroGlass support is currently not supported and will be turned off.
Enhanced video playbackBitmap acceleration improves the remote display of graphics-intensive applications such as PowerPoint, Flash, and Silverlight.
Known issues affecting Windows Vista package
Known issues affecting Windows XP package
Functionality available only when connecting from Windows 7 to Windows 2008 R2
Language Bar dockingRemoteApp allows users to use their docked Language Bar with their RemoteApp applications just as they do with the local applications.
This productive functionality was previously unavailable. Instead, users had to use the floating Language bar.
Remote application task schedulerRemote application task scheduler functionality automatically starts remote applications on the Remote Desktop client required by the user. The client computer must have Windows 7 installed to use this feature.
Aero Glass supportTerminal Services in Windows Server 2008 did not support Aero Glass remoting for sessions. This is now supported in Windows Server 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Services, but is incompatible with multi-monitor support.
Start applications and desktops from 'RemoteApp and Desktop Connections'Users can subscribe to all of their RemoteApp programs and desktops which are then listed in their local Start menu. The list is automatically updated as items are added or deleted.

My friend you are contradicting yourself. You talk about exp/hour and how you don't like to stop and smell roses. That's fine, I know plenty of people with that playstyle. However, having these things marked on the map for you to go means you know where to go get the exp instead of looking around blindly, thus increasing your exp/hour. If going to these pre-determined points slow you down, then don't do them. If you feel you HAVE to do them to min/max then you are simply complaining that Anet has given you another option/way to get more exp/karma (increasing exp/hour) etc and this is no where near an immersion issue.

And yes it is an immersion issue. If I can play your game efficiently without having to think just by following the marks on the map I will not be immersed, and sooner or later I will get bored.

I'm curious to what the other games are that have rewarded you with exp and loot for exploring.

I played DAoC for 3-4 years and didn't get bored for a second. The exping was very social (grouping only), and it was fun trying to make the perfect group (fastest exp - safe from wipes and key members leaving - having replacements ready and waiting just in case) which was extremely difficult to accomplish and never lasted long. I managed to get about 20-25 chars to max level and trust me it was way slower than GW2. Also DAoC didn't have a minimap and the map was very basic(I didn't even need it since I had memorized the landscape). By far the most immersive MMO (in both PvP and PvE)
WoW was also fun for about 2 years. It was more immersive in vanilla but the quests were a lot more fun in cataclysm. Never cared for its endgame though (except maybe arenas for a while). I ended up with 7-8 chars at max level.
In GW2 I was bored after 1-2 weeks and 1 level 80.

How can you immerse yourself when theres alarm "orcs are attacking" and you go out there and poor orcs just stand there picking daises and chatting about the weather :) (generic example instead of orcs insert mob you like)

Different strokes I guess...
WoW was more immersive because the whole game wasn't based around the minimap/map, it didn't have portals in every zone, I played on a PvP server so the world felt dangerous and unpredictable (unlike GW2), in vanilla you had to actually explore the world to finish most quests (even when you had to get help from thottbot). I guess you had to think more to exp. GW2 doesn't leave much room for improvisation, just go where the minimap tells you to go.
And not to forget that in WoW (especially after cata) each zone had a unique story that drew you in, in GW2 open world exping has no story at all.

To be honest, I couldn't believe it the first time I rolled a human and got to Lion's Arch so fast by feet...Guild Wars 1 always felt like an EPIC adventure to get there in the first place, but in GW2...I don't know...the world feels small, at least that's the feeling I get :/

gw1 had the same portal system as its part of the lore of the game. I never understood how people say gw1 felt bigger and more immersive when it was a lobby game... i dunno.. i could see when compared to a game that doesn't offer instant ports but gw1 you could do the exact same thing..
I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall.

Maybe because GW1 had too many mobs and you spent a longer time fighting (maybe too much time IMHO, areas were crowded with monsters everywhere) on these maps, also, travelling with your mates helped with immersion (loved the "fellowship of the ring" vibe when travelling with my party NPC's / Heroes) all I know is that GW1 "felt" bigger but I can't explain why, it's only a feeling and sometimes feelings are difficult to turn into words...

PvP servers are not dngearous and unpredictable. You lose nothung from dying and its very predictable you will get ganked (by no lifers at launch/griefers later)
Thanks the heavens i dont have to think much of xp in GW2 and can just immerse myself in the game and play, instead whacking "best xp/hour" stuff (thats the least immersive thing i can think of (its full anti immersive) along with standing in queue for quest monster). GW2 is ALL about improvisation, immensly more than DAOC and WoW.
In GW2 zones have stories, which have stories within which have stories withing and then it has hundreds if not thousand(s) stories apart form that. And not in "wall of text" format. Kinda beats WoW lol

i will agree many areas in gw1 were way overcrowded with mobs.. i won't argue the porting(lore or not) does make the world "feel" a bit more confined and smaller than a game without this sort of thing. In effect its like wow when they added flying mounts which took a lot of that big world feeling away imho. But when inside the zone i can wander and wander for a VERY long time and not hit the edge of a zone in almost every map in gw2 this to me makes the zones at least feel very larg and not "boxed in" at all which wasn't my experience in games like swtor for example where many planets felt way to boxed in for my taste.

You know what they need in terms of zones. I find seemless zones to be the way to go...kind of like vanguard. However to piggy back on your point about containment. I would approach zone creation like the world we are living in now. Say for instance if you go from one city to the next , sometimes the only way you know its a diff city is of course via map or signs. TSW could have used this concept. I think they have it where you ahve a loadign screen I feel that takes away from teh game. It should feel that there is no break in going from one place to the next.
There is a problem however when dealing with a seemless world and that is resource allocation. I would think having a seemless world would be more intensive for the devs and the players. Personally I think if one MMo company that had say 300+million would do very well if they took their time, and say used graphics that looked like Aion or Tera. Had teh combat of Tera or GW2, but had lore like Everquest. Also somewhere in there it would need some sanbox elements but with a heavy penalty that would almost virtually keep people from griefing...I think wushu has something liek that where you can get thrown in jail for actual days.
Immersion wise certain things would have to spill over to other "zones" and have effects in that zone. For instance if you didnt put out a fire in zone A it could potentially spread to Zone B. Also what should happen is taking the reins from the devs and having a program make up play withing boundaries for the consumer. Adaptable play is what I would call it...I feel that is where games are going to have to go. People awnt a challenge and they need unpredictability in their games. Give them that and I think people would come in spades.

We all want that, but while we wait for it to happen we have to stay in realm of possible nd be satisfied with the next best thing.
And i much more prefer larger zoned world than smaller seamless world.
And Vanguard...thats example how not to build a game world. Huge world...BUT....lot of nothingness in it, huge problems with chunks, no server capacity to fill that world. It was extremely redundant. There is such think as too big and Vanguard is prime example of it (along with SWTOR...and LOTRO....and WoW...and SWG)
And no, mobs standing on a meadow is not content.

GW1 was far from perfect, although I spent years of my life playing it and loved it, I ended up hating it after EOTN. I mean, it became so ridiculous...the worst I can remember was those busy areas filled with packs of mantids. Also 4 level 28 giants attacking your level 20 party, yeah right lol (ended up rushing some zones like a Mario Bros game) I have fond memories of GW1, but GW2 is a better "game" IMHO - I always thought the more important thing in a game is gameplay, and GW2 is not as frustrating as GW1 was. There has never been a game that frustrated me as much as GW1 did. On the opposite, I am feeling like it's a smaller world (again only a personal feeling) that's why I think both GW1 & GW2 complete each other, they both have their positives/negatives...now I wish Guild Wars 3 could take the best of two worlds lol :)

yea i reinstalled gw1 little bit before gw2 came out to try and get the halls stuff.. lasted a couple days and uninstalled:P game is just way more frustrating than fun imho..

The thing with GW1 is that the difference between bad builds and good builds is immense, which isn't surprising with the amount of skills present.
I mean, monks with ressurect or rebirth?
Anyone with self heals?
Degen builds for PvE?
Currently playing: GW2
Yeah, loved GW1 but it had too many "balance" issues and gameplay was so frustrating...attacking, targeting, clicking properly etc. was a chore sometimes, GW2 is a way better "game" IMHO. But I still miss that world and atmosphere from GW1, especially adventuring with my own heroes, following me ^^
Yes, a bit too much...I'm not an expert player, I don't think I was a bad player either but the game was unbalanced for sure.
Sorry but OP what did you think of Divinity's Reach? Must be the most immersive virtual place I've ever visited...honestly DR must be the most awesome virtual city EVER created!

Ah, the old "realism" argument. Argued and debated to death for decades. The fact that you "immerse" yourself into a video game, and then complain about "cartoony/anime" styles, is ironic in it's own right. Those games listed in your signature are far from "reality". Mythical creatures, space ships, aliens, ewoks, and wookies; compared to one race (asura) is your only argument? If anything, star wars is a "space-fantasy", which is arguably rated T, for teen.

- Iodido(tri-tert-butylphosphane-κP)gold(I) (2012)
- The AuI atom of the title compound, [AuI(C12H27P)], shows an almost linear coordination, with a P—Au—I angle of 178.52 (3)° [Au—P = 2.2723 (14) Å and Au—I = 2.5626 (6) Å].
- Trans-Dichloridobis(triphenylphosphane-κP)palladium(II) benzene hemisolvate (2012)
- The title complex, [PdCl2(C18H15P)2]·0.5C6H6, has the PdII ion in a square-planar coordination mode (r.m.s. deviation for Pd, P and Cl atoms = 0.024 Å) with the PPh3 and Cl ligands mutually trans. The benzene solvent molecule is located about a crystallographic inversion centre. The title complex is isostructural with trans-dichloridobis(triphenylphosphane)palladium(II) 1,4-dichlorobenzene sesquisolvate [Kitano et al. (1983 [triangle]). Acta Cryst. C39, 1015–1017].
- Bromido(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)mercury(II) (2012)
- Molecules of the title compound, [HgBr(C9H11)], are located on a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. Due to the molecular symmetry, the HgII atom is linearly coordinated by the ipso-C of the mesityl group and the Br atom. In the crystal, molecules lie in planes parallel to (001).
- 1,3-Bis(2,6-diisopropyl-phen-yl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium bromide dichloromethane disolvate (2012)
- In the title compound, C27H37N2 +·Br−·2CH2Cl2, both the cation and the anion are located on a crystallographic mirror plane. Both of the dichloromethane solvent molecules show a disorder across a mirror plane over two equally occupied positions. In the crystal, the cations are connnected to the bromide ions via C—H[cdots, three dots, centered]Br hydrogen bonds.

A criminal investigation is under way after a hacker apparently accessed private photos and emails sent between members of the Bush family, including both former presidents.
The Houston Chronicle reports that a spokesman for former President George H.W. Bush declined to comment on a report on The Smoking Gun website detailing the alleged security breach.
Bush spokesman Jim McGrath told the Chronicle the matter is "under criminal investigation." McGrath did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment by The Associated Press early Friday.
The Smoking Gun says the hacker went by the online moniker "Guccifer," a word plastered across the leaked photos in translucent, neon blue print.
The website quotes "Guccifer" as describing himself as a veteran hacker who has long been in the government's sights.

Gil will be a great addition.
"If a man with no arms and a man with no legs started learning karate, the same light bulb would appear over every head in Japan. Thats right: Glue them together and see if it can kill a panda."
But I don't know about exactly ducking, because I think that if Gilbert ever fights in SF again, Healy is his only challenger really, so they'd most likely meet up once Gil is healthy....IF SF still exists. Maybe Gil's trying to put things off until he can get to the UFC where he'll get the bigger fights and more limelight, but for the time being, Healy's basically it, unless they want to make Punk/Gil for the trillionth time.
Was a worthless fight anyways. I'd much rather see him wait and fight someone who will be an actual challenge. Healy shouldn't have even won his fight against Hirota ffs. I realize he is a tough fighter but he just doesn't have the stand up to deal with good stand up guys who are as good at wrestling or better than him.
I hope this isn't too big, because it's awesome.
He didnt look very good against Jorge or Josh.... I still have him as a top LW, but I dont see how you can have him at #1 by any means...
Should be nice to see him come over to the UFC and Unify the belts. Not that LW is looking for new contenders anytime soon.
I agree that I had Hirota winning their fight and IMO, Healy laid an egg. I'll also agree that him getting a titleshot is pretty irrelevant in the "grand scheme of things" considering the utter lack of depth in the SF division and the marked disparity that alot of people see between Gil and the rest of the SF LWs.
But, I'll somewhat disagree with your comment about him not having the stand-up to deal with guys who are as good at wrestling than him, because his standup is somewhat enigmatic, in that he looks to do most of his striking in the clinch and mainly looks to strike until he can close the distance. In the case of Gilbert, I think Healy matches up very well in alot of key spots. Specifically, Healy is fucking massive at LW and is somewhat a stud at dirty boxing and clinchwork against the cage, which I think he has a good possibility of imposing on Gilbert after avoiding Gilbert's periphery striking. Healy can get heavy on Gil against the cage all night long and can really drag the fight out, when it goes to the ground, I think it is nearly a push given Healy's underrated submissions and size. Gil has crazy handspeed and alot of great skills, but I think Healy could come in with a great gameplan and nullify alot of what Gil does best.
I think Gilbert is the superior fighter and would probably win the fight, but Healy has alot of ways to take the fight, especially if Gil takes him lightly or doesn't expect to be in a clinchwar.

How to launch apps using Siri
Instead of scouring your iPhone or iPad Home screen to launch an app, or even worse yet, digging through folders, for that app you know you downloaded but just can't find, just ask Siri to launch it instead! As long as you know the name, there's no need to search for apps anymore.
How to launch App Store apps using Siri
- Press and hold the Home button on your iPhone or iPad to activate Siri.
- Say something like "Launch Facebook." or "Launch the iMore app."
- If your iPhone isn't already unlocked and you have a passcode, Siri will ask you to enter your password.
- Siri should automatically launch the app you asked for. If more than one app matches what you asked, Siri will ask you to confirm which one you meant.
That's it! While Siri may not be able to understand commands like "Check me in on Foursquare." just yet, launching apps is another convenience thing that comes in handy when your hands are tied up or when you just can't find something. What apps do you have that you wish Siri could hook into even further? Let me know in the comments!

How to launch apps using Siri
Anyone have a solution to launch the app Waze? It's the one I can't get to work this way. Tried pronouncing it "ways" and "way ze" but no go.
I spell it out. It works.
Clever man... Thank you. Worked just fine spelling it out. Too bad *I* didn't think of that ;-D
It also works if you just say the name of the app. Like "Pandora". Works great to get the music going in my car via Bluetooth!
Ok, but how about the Facebook app itself? Do I need to spell it out? Or must I make the manual (second) selection every time?
It also works if you know where your apps are on your phone because its probably fast then waiting for Siri to launch it for you. Just speaking the truth!
It is a great way to launch an app and I am glad to find this out. Thank you for sharing!

The University of Northern Iowa (UNI) USA and Kyungpook National University (KNU) Korea are pleased to announce an innovative double-degree program for students training to be teachers of science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and physical education supported by a $3 million grant from the National Research Foundation of Korea. KNU is ranked among the top universities in the world by both ARWU and Times Higher, and was recently selected (along with only two other Korean universities) for the National Research Foundation of Korea's new Global Teachers University project. The goal of the twelve year project is to train a new generation of internationally-qualified teachers. The University of Northern Iowa, consistently ranked one of the best comprehensive universities in the United States by U.S. News & World Report and Princeton Review, is a nationally-recognized leader in STEM education.
The double degree program will permit participating students to graduate with a teaching qualification from both KNU and UNI. A minimum of 60 KNU students will study for two years at UNI with their tuition covered by the National Research Foundation grant. UNI students will study for one year at KNU as exchange students in pursuit of KNU degrees, creating the opportunity for additional KNU students to study at UNI. The first KNU GTU students will join UNI in Spring 2015, and UNI students will be welcomed beginning in Spring 2014.
Professor Craig Evan Klafter, Associate Provost for International Programs at the University of Northern Iowa, said, "The University of Northern Iowa is delighted to partner with Kyungpook National University to shape the future of STEM education in Korea and in the United States, and is grateful to the National Research Foundation of Korea for its generous support." According to Professor Ui Wook Hwang, coordinator of the KNU GTU project, "This is very significant… the new dual-degree program will be a major factor for increasing the employment among graduates and upgrading the all-round international profile of the Teachers' College at KNU".
