Google has announced that it plans to "retire" Google Health in January 2012. It's a blow to those in the medical tourism world who had grand plans for the "global patient record" and who were using the Google health record as the model or template for this.
Back in 2007, Google announced Google Health with the words: "By digitizing health records and giving control over them to the patients, they will be able to make better informed decisions. With health records stored in a central server, patients will be able to access them from anywhere, whether they move to a new city or are traveling while on vacation, so that, in an emergency, unfamiliar health care providers can get a comprehensive view of their health history" (Source: ABC news - Google Moving Forward on Health Initiative).
In withdrawing the system, Google says that Google Health "didn't scale as we had hoped.... we've observed that Google Health is not having the broad impact that we hoped it would"
What factors have driven Google to abandon Google Health and is there a message here for the concept of the "global health record" in the medical tourism world?
Here are some of the factors that have been put forward for the failure of Google Health:
So does Google Health's demise open the door for Microsoft's HealthVault? We can only wait and see.
For additional perspectives on why Google Health died a death:

>> Some of Calvin Klein's most recent memorable red carpet moments have involved vivid colors or metallic sheen, but neither were present in Francisco Costa's Resort 2012 collection, which is instead washed in a sea of white, black, navy, and icy gray. Monochrome the collection may be, but not monotonous: the finale halter dresses earned more than a few fans as the models clomped by in their white-soled sandal flatforms.

Motor Car - aXcess Australia Concept Car, 1998 Reg. No: HT 3127
- Summary:
- The Australian aXcess concept cars originated from an idea developed by the Melbourne-based automotive designer Gary Millard in the early 1990s to produce a one-off custom made motor car that would showcase the skills and innovative design of Australia's automotive components industry to the world's major automotive manufacturers. Co-ordinated by the Melbourne-based company, Axcess Australia, the project was a joint initiative of the Australian Federal Department of Industry, Science & Tourism, Market Australia, the Energy Research & Development Corporation, CSIRO and the State Governments of Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and South Australia together with in-kind support from 130 independent Australian automotive component manufacturers and designers.
Development of the two cars represents a significant innovation story incorporating both dozens of examples of state-of-the-art Australian automotive technology and a world-first in automotive marketing in which one-off cars were developed neither as prototypes for possible future production cars or concept cars designed to developed ideas from a single manufacturer. Instead both vehicles were intended specifically to showcase the products of Australian component manufacturers to best advantage in the highly competitive international automotive manufacturing industry. They were to incorporate environmentally sustainable materials and low-emission technology.
This is the first aXcess Australia car powered by a 2.0 litre super-charged two-stroke in-line six-cylinder Orbital petrol engine and programmable 'intelligent' four-speed automatic transmission or alternate "Touchtronic" manual control. Following its launch at Parliament House, Canberra, on 9 February 1998, the car was taken direct to the Society of Automotive Engineer's International Congress and Exposition in Detroit where is created an overnight international sensation. Following this the car returned to Melbourne for the International Motor Show and Australian Grand Prix in March 1998, before embarking on an extensive overseas promotional tour that saw it visit 28 destinations in 11 countries, including the United States, Germany, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Japan, Korea, India, Malaysia & Singapore. Over a five year period, publicity generated by the aXcess Car was claimed to have generated Aus$1.25 billion in export orders for Australian automotive component manufacturers involved in the project. It was featured again at the Australian Formula One Grand Prix in Melbourne in March 1999 when it completed laps of the circuit before the race and was displayed to the public.
The futuristic looking car with its distinctive metallic red colour, curved lines and bubble-shaped roof created enormous interest, particularly amongst younger motorists and in the process became something of an Australian design icon. The car was featured in the exhibition Innovative Australians and was displayed at Scienceworks for six months during 2001 as part of this exhibition. Amongst the innovative Australian technologies featured in the car are an advanced Australian-designed orbital engine, sequentially interlocking electrically-operated clam-shell passenger doors with electronic & optical controls, a lightweight Henrod riveted steel chassis, carbon-fibre frame and body panels, in-built solar roof panels, magnesium frame, airbags, Autoliv bucket seats for improved passenger comfort, a programmable "intelligent" four-speed automatic transmission, fluid-coupled limited slip differential, a unique VDO slimline steering column mounted instrument console and advanced voice-activated electronics including automated road hazard warning and satellite navigation systems.
Along with the later aXcess Hybrid Low Emission Vehicle, this car was donated to Museum Victoria by aXcess Australia in 2003.

Rated 3 out of 5Â by mtbtimbo Too much stretch This bra is super cute, but is very stretchy with no support at all. Had to take it back. Would of loved for it to work for me cause its so cute and so many colors to pick from. 10.14.2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Sihara Cool but not coral The coral bra is neon, not the colour pictured, but it gives you an instant tan and has a good sporty look. It doesn't really give support. I'm a 32b and would prefer a smaller size, but it's flattering and fun and provides comfortable coverage for everyday and yoga. I love the back. 3.26.2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Teah Get It! This bra is completely amazing! It's extremely comfortable without sacrificing the cuteness factor. My boy thinks it's pretty sexy too ;) Although it's a great yoga top, I've seriously been wearing it every day for a week as a bra too! It's been really hot, and this gem kept me cool all week. The only issue I'm having with it is that after two wears, it's begun to stretch out in the middle of the bottom band a bit. I'm 5'7, a 34B, and 142 lbs and I normally wear a M. I bought this in M/L and I initially thought it was the best fit I've ever had for a sports bra, because I didn't get any of that back flab stuff that sometimes squeezes itself out. Now I'm wishing I got it in a S, but it's still the best bra ever. Oh, also there's no padding so it might not have the best support for the bustier ladies. Hope this helps! 7.8.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by silverwings Nice This works as a cute layering top or just a bra. I got it in raspberry and the color is as pictured. Very nice and stretchy, true to size. 6.26.2012
Rated 5 out of 5Â by NYCSparrow great bralette I just love this little bralette. I wear one nearly everyday because it is everything I am looking for in a bra: no underwires, elastic or straps digging into my skin-- yet still quite supportive, very cute, and VERY comfortable. I want one in every color! 9.23.2014
Rated 2 out of 5Â by meechesz I don't understand... I'm size 34c. I got an XS and it's still huge with no support whatsoever. I don't understand how can people wear this. Plus, after a wash, it got bigger. it's just a tragedy..I honestly don't think it's worth the price because of the quality and sizing. I bought 2 because I got high hopes for these but..eeks! 5.6.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by missjonesie Absolutely love I am obsessed with my new Fishnet Racer Back Bra!! Not only is it extremely comfortable but I love the way it looks... It's passed the gym test, yoga test and under my every day clothes test. I made my first purchase in black and you can guarantee I'm coming back for more :) 4.14.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by debbiebevel thank goodness for this bra!! thank goodness for this bra!! this bra fits so comfortably that i want to buy some more. i usually wear a size 38c or d and i ordered a m/l in this. it fits like a glove.. it is so comfortable too.. i can't stand the traditional bra because it always rides up in the back and on the sides.. this bra fits perfectly and stays in place.. thank you free people!! 4.8.2014

Hilbert Student Leaders to Take Part in Interactive Training Program
- Release Date:
- May 8, 2012
- Contact:
- Matt Heidt, firstname.lastname@example.com
- 716-926-8792
HAMBURG, N.Y. – Nearly 70 Hilbert College students will participate in a two-day residential leadership training camp, which will include team and skill-building activities, to help prepare them for leadership roles they will be taking on in the coming academic year.
Hilbert Student Government Association officers and class representatives, resident assistants, peer leaders, student ambassadors, and athletic team captains will be involved in the on-campus training program slated to take place May 14-15.
According to James Sturm, vice provost for leadership development and dean of students, this is the second year Hilbert is using this type of campus-wide training model for student leaders.
"Offering this comprehensive program to all our campus leaders as a whole is a highly effective, valuable experience for participants. It gives them the opportunity to come together as a group and benefit from interacting and sharing ideas with student leaders who will be serving various leadership roles across campus," said Sturm.
Keynote speaker Nancy Hunter Denney, a nationally recognized leadership expert and author, will discuss with students "The Urgency of Your Greatness" at 11 a.m. May 14 in the William E. Swan Auditorium. She also will address at 1 p.m. the "Civility in the Age of Whatever."
Using Hilbert's Franciscan values as a foundation, the program will incorporate goal-setting, team activities and interactive exercises, and workshops on mentoring, creativity and other topics to develop student leadership skills and start the planning process for the 2012-13 academic year.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations. The college's engaging, student-centered campus community offers numerous leadership, internship, and service learning opportunities from which students launch successful careers while making positive changes in their communities. The Hilbert Blueprint promotes a well-rounded student experience over four years – starting with the Foundations Seminar in the freshman year, followed by Sophomore Service, Junior Symposium, and culminating with the Senior Capstone. Hilbert has expanded its academic offerings with the college's first graduate programs and new Accelerated Degree Programs geared to adult learners.

I have a friend that is training for a marathon and he drinks 6 raw eggs before running (Yes, like Rocky) - is this safe?
Bearing in mind the salmonella statistics given above., yes it is safe to eat raw eggs so long as you are not very young, very old, or immunocompromised in some way--e.g. HIV, chemotherapy, leukemia, etc.
Food safety experts and government organizations target their recommendations to what's safest for everyone, and would recommend against this. However, "safe" is a subjective term. It's all about managing risk levels. The odds of a given egg containing salmonella or other food-borne illness are pretty low. A healthy adult with a normal immune system can probably fend off any nasties, or at least recover from illness.
The source of the eggs has an effect on the risk levels as well, I believe. Organic free-range eggs are probably less risky than supermarket brands.
I'd say it's as safe as eating any other food generally consumed rare or raw (beef, fish, oysters). It's certainly edible. I use raw egg whites in many things, but I buy them in bulk, ultra-pasteurized. I also prefer my eggs very runny. Yes there's an increased probability of food-borne illnesses but so does a rare steak or a medium hamburger.
If you're worried, you can dip the eggs into boiling water for, say, 10 seconds to sterilise the outside of the shell. As Robert Cartaino points out above, though, there might still be bacteria inside.
FWIW I've made mayonnaise many times without any ill effects.
It is relativly safe as long as you pay attention to some points:
Eggs should be as fresh as possible, so a possible salmonella contamination has no time to spread. Also organic or free range eggs should be preferred. In some egg-producing farms using battery cages up to 30% of the chickens are contaminated with salmonella and so the eggs.
Although other people here mention the improbability to get salmonella from eggs it is still possible. I myself got them from scrambled eggs hat I had not cooked properly (I think the eggs were about a week old, stored in the fridge and free range). I had the worst diarrhea in my life, fever up to 41°C/106°F and was in hospital for a week (read: not fun).
In the UK it is safe from a salmonella standpoint (assuming the eggs are lion branded).
The lion branch mark (applied to each individual egg) means that the chickens they come from are salmonella free (I assume they have been fed the antibiotic or anti viral or whatever it is)
I agree with the others that other things will have a bearing - age of egg in particular
There are pasteurized raw eggs that are safe to eat. One brand is http://www.safeeggs.com/
Or egg beaters I think
having a one raw eggs per day is totally fine.

FORT WALTON BEACH — Crestview High School junior point guard Jensis Coleman was at her best with the District 1-7A girls semifinal basketball game on the line Thursday night.
Coleman scored 13 of her game high 26 points in the fourth quarter to lead the Bulldogs to a 51-42 win over Niceville at Fort Walton Beach High School's Viking Gymnasium.
Crestview (18-7) will meet Fort Walton Beach in the tournament championship game at 7 p.m. Saturday at Fort Walton Beach.
The win also assured the Bulldogs a spot in the state playoffs that start next week.
Powered by six points from Coleman and four from Jasmine Middleton the young Bulldog team jumped to a 13-0 lead six minutes into the game.
At that point it looked as the equally young Eagle squad might be doomed.
A Jessie Day basket followed by a Michaela Mitchell 3-pointer pulled Niceville to within 13-5 and gave the Eagles (14-11) some much needed momentum.
Jaci Hodskins scored six points in the second quarter to lead the Eagle charge as Niceville went on a 16-6 run. A pair of Hodskins' free throws with 22 seconds left in the first half gave Niceville its first lead at 21-20.
But the momentum swung back to Crestview when Bulldog freshman KK White hit a 3-pointer as the half ended giving Crestview a 23-21 lead at the break.
"They got a little rattled and I just had to settle them down and tell them not to get back and play our game," Bulldog Coach Kathy Combest. "Niceville's so big they did give us some problems, but we adjusted and regained our composure.
"We knew we had to beat Niceville to play Fort Walton again. And we to play Fort Walton to make it known that we are a basketball team too."
Niceville's zone defense bothered Crestview throughout much of the game, but the Bulldogs still found themselves on top 30-24 with just more than a minute left in the third quarter.
Back-to-back Day 3-pointers were followed by back-to-back scores by Hodskins as the Eagles ran off 10 unanswered points in a span of 76 seconds.
Hodskins second basket of the run came 16 seconds into the fourth quarter and gave the Eagles their largest lead of the night at four points.
Coleman and her Bulldog teammates then went to work using a pressure defense to grind out the win down the stretch.
"I feel like Crestview is coming back (to being a force in girls basketball)," Middleton said. "That's all you can say.
"We always have to stay together. We might be down, but we can always come back as long as we stay together and do what we are capable of we'll be OK."
With 26 points Coleman was the only Bulldog in double figures. White added nine points and Middleton eight in the win.

2 July 2012
Stonewall today launches You're Welcome!, a guide for gay people visiting Britain. The guide, available in English, French, Spanish, German, Italian and Polish, explains the legal protections enjoyed by gay people in Britain, and where they can go in case of any problems. You're Welcome! will be distributed to every Tourist Information Office, Citizens Advice Bureau and police force in England, as well as many bars and clubs.
More than 1.5 million lesbian, gay and bisexual people visit Britain every year, contributing a billion pounds to the economy. Many come from countries that don't offer the same sort of legal protections that gay people enjoy in Britain – and some might even have faced persecution by state authorities in their home countries, simply because they're gay. You're Welcome! will reassure visitors from those countries that they can be themselves and rely upon police and health services to help them if things go wrong.
Stonewall Chief Executive Ben Summerskill said: 'Years of campaigning by Stonewall has made sure Britain's 3.7 million gay people are legally protected from discrimination in every walk of life, but we know many of the gay people who visit Britain might not have the same protection at home. Despite gay tourists' billion-pound boost to the economy, during this Jubilee and Olympic year little has been done to make sure they know their rights and feel safe. Stonewall is proud to offer millions of gay people a warm welcome and some helpful advice.'
The guides are available online from www.stonewall.org.uk/visitorsguide. English, French and Spanish guides will be distributed at WorldPride on 7 July, and German, Italian and Polish guides can be downloaded from 6 July.
During office hours please call: 020 7593 1856 or outside office hours on 07985 439 660.
If you are a journalist and wish to be added to Stonewall's media contacts list, please contact email@example.com

EXCLUSIVE | Josh Thomson Explains The Keys To Beating Nate Diaz | BJPENN.COM Radio MMA News | Mixed Martial Arts | UFC News | BJPenn | MMA Fight | UFC Fights
Regarding his preparation and game plan, Thomson was blunt in suggesting that because of Diaz physical size and skill set, he cannot plan too far ahead.
Youve just got to get the win, thats the biggest thing is making sure you go out there and get the win no matter how it happens. Nate poses a threat I think for anybody because, like GSP said, stylistically [the Diaz brothers] are hard to get guys to train with that are that good. If the guy is that good at boxing and hes that long where hes 61-62, you know, theyre long, good boxers. Its hard to get a guy thats long, and a good boxer, but is also a black belt in jiu-jitsu that also knows how to roll. So just stylistically, its hard to find guys that are the best of both worlds to match-up against them.
In preparing for Diaz, Thomson has relied on tall sparring partners and world class grapplers like Leo Viera, the founder of Checkmat, to prepare him for Diaz well-rounded arsenal. He made it clear, however, that hes not preparing to stand and slug-it-out with a fighter who has made his name doing just that.
The one area I want to stay out of with him is in that slug range. I dont want to get into a brawling situation with him; it was the same thing with Gilbert [Melendez]. I think just the Cesar [Gracie] guys, with the exception of Jake [Shields], with Nick [Diaz] and Nate and Gil, those three guys, I mean they dont mind mixing it up; they dont mind getting hit two or three times to give you one good one. So I think with those guys, you have to really make sure you come in, you throw your combination, get in and get out or you basically just put a lot of pressure on them, make them try to back up. The key is to make sure youre never standing directly in front of them, youre creating angles and youre letting your hands go; your hands, your knees, your feet, everything. Put it all together and just let it go.
For Thomson, this fight is a homecoming of sorts. Having previously fought in the UFC until the elimination of its lightweight division, Thomson most recently made his name in Strikeforce, where his last fight saw him unsuccessfully challenge for Gilbert Melendez lightweight title in a closely fought contest. The return to the Octagon, however, does not sound like it fazes the veteran.
Coming home, it just seems like I left the UFC right where Im actually walking back into it. I left the UFC as the number one contender, and possibly should have been fighting for the UFC title, and Im right back where I should be as I come back into it. So not much has changed from when I left UFC to now: Im fighting a number one contender with the potential of being the number one contender, and with the chance of fighting for the title next. Who can argue with that? I cant be mad at that, thats exactly where I want to be and I feel like Im right there.
The Northern California fighter also made note of how, in his return to the UFC, he feels that he has nothing to prove. After roughly 15 years in the fight game, hes been able to stand-and-deliver in both flashy fights that showcased his ability to put all aspects of MMA together, as well as doing what he had to in order to win. Also, Thomson referenced his innovations from his early days in the UFC ranging from being the first to execute a Superman Punch and punching the front of his opponents thigh, which was seen most recently in Ben Hendersons victory over Thomsons next opponent, Nate Diaz.
Thomson also just recently returned from six weeks in China filming a remake of the film Moving Target, of which gave a brief rundown of his experience as well as the plot of the film:
I meet a girl online, and weve been talking for a while, and I go over to China for the first time to meet her, Thomson began. We have a lunch and I go by her work to kind of surprise her with flowers, and basically everyone in her office is dead. So I spend the whole movie looking for her and along the way I kill about sixty-something people- like brutally kill them- and at the end of course, you get the girl. Thats kind of how the whole storyline usually goes, right?
A low budget production, Thomson mentioned that he has already been approached to film an additional two films in continuance with the remake down the line, as well as the fight scenes being way better than the original. Having no restrictions on work in Asia, the days were long and the diet was less strict for Thomson, who returned to training on March 15th.
Self-admittedly, Thomson says he does not feel that hes given himself the proper time to prepare for an opponent of Diazs caliber, but believes that he has all the tools to still come out victorious; the most important of which is self-awareness of who hes fighting.
I dont think anybody ever goes into a Nick-and-Nate Diaz fight and says, Im going to go in there and just smash him. They can take a punch, theyre good on the ground, and theyre good at avoiding damage. I mean you would have never- if you looked at the GSP and Nick fight, you would have thought that Nick won. He really didnt have any marks on him, and he took some shots and he lost all five rounds Thomson mentioned, once again referencing the toughness of Cesar Gracies main core of fighters.
If you go in there thinking, Hey, Im just going to go in there and rip their head off in the first two rounds, youre going to be standing there in the third going, man, they havent dropped and Im dog dead tired and odds are theyre probably going to finish you.

Apple financial results and conference call today 2pm PDT, 5pm EDT
Apple is set to release their Q2 2013 financial results, and conduct their usual conference call, today at 2pm PDT, 5pm EDT. Most times the only news we get out of it is how many more billions Apple made, and what kind of shots Tim Cook took at competitors and analysts asking about TVs for the umpteenth time. Today's narrative will, of course, be focused -- or unfocused -- around Apple is doomed.
Apple wil still earn billions, way more than competitors who enjoy huge market and media support while seldom if even earning a nickel of profit. And there's a good chance they'll be killed for it.
Either way, we'll be back later to sort through all of it, and try to attach some sanity to the narrative. If you want to follow along, you can listen live or catch the recording later via the link below. Meanwhile, leave your predictions in the comments.

Apple financial results and conference call today 2pm PDT, 5pm EDT
If you grant the assumption there is some sort of mustache-twirling conspiracy intentionally driving the stock price down, then no. Any evil genius worth his (or her) salt would keep driving the price down until the exact moment the public believes Apple is an irresistable buy, at which point the cabal would snap up every last share available. Anything less would leave money on the table, which is never advised when evil lairs are so expensive these days [ http://www.villainsource.com/lairs.html ]
Rene, wrong link!
This is the one where they take the company private.
Posted by somebody else in another comment thread, but here [ http://branch.com/b/taking-apple-private ] some Apple watchers (including Rene) discuss why that is vanishingly unlikely.
I think they will be fine in the long term. Consumers and the competition are feature focused while Apple is focused on making products which provide the best experience. Apple products are the benchmark, the gold standard, that all other products are measured against. Feature focused people are afraid that apple is not keeping up but forget that apple is the leader. They also don't realize that 90% of the advertised features on other phones are not used (gimmicks). Also, Apple hardware and software are so well made that the phone still benchmarks at or above these quadcore/high RAM devices. I trust that the company will continue to grow and produce amazing products.
Can we stop with the "apple is doomed" victom-hood? Nobody is ever arguing Apple is doomed. It's a strong company that's not going anywhere. People should stop getting bent out of shape and spouting the outrage at nonexistent "apple is doomed" claims.

I had been playing Piano (learning on my own through youtube and books) once a while for over 2 years now and I would call myself above novice. I can't read sheet music but I have a not bad ear. However, I was diagnosed with a problem and can't really play Piano for long so I was dropping it for a wind instrument primarily : Recorder, Harmonica and Bamboo flute. I like all three and my disorder won't interfere with me playing any of these three.
My needs are basically cheap instrument, light and something I can learn on my own.
Ideally, I'd also like one or more of the following:
- Not too difficult/Simple to pick up and play. No complicated techniques to learn.
- Good online resources
- Versatile
I mostly like covering the vocal parts of popular songs to play at parties etc. like Coldplay.

As a retailer in the surf industry for the past 21 years, I have had to use multiple sources to stay informed to the news within surf. Since the inception of the Executive Edition of Shop-Eat-Surf.com, I need only one stop. Thanks for providing such a valuable tool to all of us in the industry.

CIT: James Paterson joins LA office.
AGENDA: Pre-registration and lodging specials for Vegas show, Aug. 17-19.
Details on Industry Insight.
SIMA and the BRA hosted a full day Industry Boot Camp yesterday at the Hyatt in Huntington Beach. About 135 people attended the gathering.
Here are some highlights from the day. See our slide show, above, for photos from the event.
Kelly Gibson kicked off the event with his thoughts on the state of the industry and filled the crowd in on Rip Curl today and a bit of his own background.
Kelly, a former pro surfer, came over to Rip Curl five years ago. Prior to Rip Curl, he was President and CEO for O'Neill.
Kelly Gibson of Rip Curl and Sean Smith of SIMA
While there are a lot of brands in the action sports industry trying to touch on multiple disciplines, he said Rip Curl aims to be the ultimate surf company.
Before coming on board, there had been some mismanagement issues and Kelly has been working hard to help the company gain market share in the U.S.
One of the first things he did after rebuilding his own team was create new design hubs. Since trends in Australia (where Rip Curl is based) move much faster than in the U.S., there are now three separate design hubs for the brand: one in Australia, one in Europe, and one in the U.S.
He's also been focusing on product innovations, especially wetsuits and boardshorts.
As for the state of the industry, he thinks it has never been better.
"People may laugh, but I think we are the strongest we have ever been. The true surf enthusiasts --- there has never been more people in the water," he said.
"What we lost … maybe some revenues have gone, but I think we were getting phony sales from that secondary customer buying surf and skate that are now buying MMA brands. For the customer to move that fast, it means they were never ours to begin with anyway."
He also said that performance in actual surfing has increased faster than ever before, forcing brands to innovate.
As for Rip Curl expanding their own retail footprint, Kelly said they are lucky in that the company is still privately owned and that means they don't always have to think about next quarter, but rather focus on what's best for the brand now.
Retail-wise, they are continuing to focus on their core partners.

Besides being GFCFSF, this macaroni and cheese recipe is also vegan. I haven't had macaroni and cheese in a while, but parents frequently ask me for a gluten free/dairy free mac n'cheese recipe to replace their Kraft Mac N'Cheese when they give up gluten and dairy. I used to say there were only two things I couldn't make gfcf--macaroni and cheese and challah--well now there is only one thing I can't make--challah. The only bad news about this recipe is you need a vita-mix to get this to be creamy. You could try using macadamia nut butter, instead of macadamia nuts if you don't have a Vita-Mix or just try it in a blender and let me know.
I used this cheese sauce on a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich as well as on some sliders .(I will post on the sliders later!) I now keep a jar of this sauce in the fridge to use whenever I want to make a little mac n'cheese or make something a little cheesy.
Macaroni and Cheese Recipe
1 cup macadamia nuts (I used organic roasted macadamias)
1/2 cup pimentos
3/4 tsp garlic salt
3/4 tsp onion salt
3/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1 tsp agave
1/4 cup coconut milk
optional: 1/2 cup sauteed onions
Puree in a blender or Vita-Mix until smooth and creamy. Boil a pound of Tinkyada elbow pasta in 1 tsp of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain well and mix "cheese" sauce with pasta. Serve with red pepper flakes for adults.

WAIAKILL Enters the UWL with DAM's & DM14′s
Wednesday, November 6th, 2013
For the first time, WAIAKILL – DyeTactical, entered into a UWL tournament in Ecuador. It was an awesome experience and will fully recommend it to any team.
Although it was an introductory version, most of the UWL rules were applied. There were a couple rules that were totally different to what we are used to in other woodsball/tactical tournaments like TacTen. No ramping and 10 bps were probably the ones that shook us most. First-strike rounds weren't allowed as well.
The tournament was played at 'Cerro del Muerto' (translated Hill of the Dead) in Playas, Ecuador which is a desert environment. There was a lot of sand, dry bushes and a dry river that crossed the field and served as trenches. Our DyeCam gear was perfect for this location as we blended with the enviroment.
We started our first match against Team Dragones. We grabbed 2 out of 4 flags within the first three minutes. A couple minutes later we conquered the third flag, giving us a bit more confidence. At the last re-entering in the 14th minute we went all in and conquered the 4th flag at the other teams starting point. This gave us all the points available.
Our next game was played against Iguana Clan, which had a similar result to the first game. Then we had to face Rojo Tactical Team with was a little bit tougher but still won it.
Our Dye Dam's, Dm13′s and Reflex's performed flawlessly in this tough terrain. One of our teammates had the honor of playing with his DM14 which recently arrived with our Dye Dealer Luis Neira from World Cup a couole days before.
The final game we had to face Team Dragones which in the global scoring came up in 2nd place advanced to finals. WAIAKILL ended up first with a big difference in points from the second place, but the final match resets the points to zero.
The final game was a tough one, but the points won by our scout when he grabbed the first flag and never losing the second flag gave us the victory. We used Dye CG paint which gave us an advantage over other teams.
UWL format is very interesting and fun and we recommend it for any woodsball/tactical player that enjoys mission oriented tournaments.
For pics and vids of this and other tournaments follow us @waiakill on Instagram, Tweeter, Facebook and YouTube.
Keep on balling!!

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. (AP) - Police in Georgia handcuffed a kindergartner after the girl threw a tantrum, and the police chief is making no apologies.
WMAZ-TV reports the 6-year-old is accused of tearing items off the walls and throwing furniture at school in the central Georgia city of Milledgeville. The police report says the girl knocked over a shelf that injured the principal.
The elementary school called police after the Friday tantrum. The report says when an officer tried to calm the child, she resisted and was handcuffed. The girl was charged with simple assault and damage to property.
Police Chief Dray Swicord says the department's policy is to handcuff people in certain situations, and "there is no age discrimination on that rule."
The child was suspended from school until August.

I'd be interested to hear some of your ideas.
I for one have come up with a system which would allow world pvp with a fully workable consequences system alongside open world questing and dungeons - as well as no levelling and therefore no levelled zones.
A 'sandbox themepark' you might say.
It wasn't that hard coming up with it either.
I would love to see something so organic in an MMO - but Devs seem stuck with certain tropes and don't think far enough out of the box.
The bar here is quite high however - a new MMO which was truly innovative in depth - and in every aspect of the game, would be expensive to produce. It would be a risk of pretty high proportions. But WoW has proved it - there is a 10 million+ subscription fanbase out there for a fantasy MMO and it is not innevitable that they cannot be seduced to finding a new collective home....
.... it's just that no-one has done enough in every facet of their games to get them to jump into bed.
It can however be done - just needs someone to take the risk and have the right vision and team.

3) I agree. Classes are terrible idea.
4) Agree kind of. Let people skill w/e they want to skill by using it.
5) Personally dont have problem with race locked factions
6) indifferent
7) I agree that crafting is the way
8) Why not to make who faction work together as one big guild rather by game mechanisms. I agree that joining a guild should be beneficial, but I would like to have that without actually making artificial bonuses for that. Guild is rather small group. Lets utilize the fact that there are hundreds / thousands of players and make them cooperate.
9) Refer to 8)
10) Agreed. I would love to have a game with only one huge server with many open dungeons, caves, places of interest.
11) Agreed
12) Housing is good, but it needs to make sense. In themepark, the housing lacks any sense, hence becomes boring, imo.
If you are interested, check out my game concept. Link is in my signature. It is quite long, but I hope it is worth reading. I believe that such MMO may have quite long life cycle. It is related to some of your points here.

TESO will have one megaserver. That mean alot of 'channels' / 'zone cloning' and it mean that game will propably be heavily instanced. Official video indirectly suggest it that instancing and personalization through story & instancing will be significant.
Those are design choices that I don't like in mmorpg. In order to make final decision I will have to see more videos, game design & features presented in more detailed way and propably participate in some kind of 'demo beta weekend'.
Still chance that I will evenplay after release this game are very very small.

The IP will bring a certain amount of people who will likely never leave.
If only there was housing.
I personally am very excited about TESO. I think a lot of the fans from the Elder Scrolls games will at least try it out. If they do it right (find a way to make everyone feel like a hero), it will work. I'm still hopeful that it will be available to play (and not just beta test) sometime next year.

Honestly, I was excited for TESO until I watched their official intro video. There seems to be no innovation at all. I was particularly put off by the way they explained their mega server technology as if it was something new. I'll try the game probably, but my hype-meter is way down for it. That might be a good thing.
I'm really hoping the hype stays low for TESO. Obviously I want it to be successful. But so many games get hyped up to rediculous proportions and when the game doesn't deliver as expected... Well, we all know what happens.

I dont think it will have very good longevity since they think that adding "MMO required features" like instances, battlegrounds, zone lockouts and more are a requirement....it is clear they are only after box sales and hope to make back their investment plus profit in the first 3 months and could probably care less about the game doing well past their initial release.

It seems developers has almost perfected this model. These games a coming out like factory made items. Cheeply made zones, genric quests. They are all the same game with minor changes to make it look different.
I just feel sorry for the casual elder scrolls gamer, the one's that doesnt really live in forums like we do. They are going to see TESO and their eyes will light up light a christmas tree. They are going to be thinking "Skyrim online". Oh man, how he/she will be sorely dissapointed. This example is another huge red flag that they are just after box sales. They couldnt even put any effort into making the combat feel like an ES game.

Completely agree.
To me it seems that no matter how innovative the developers try to be or even think they are, they are still acting only between the standardized boundaries existing in practically every MMO created in last 10 years.
There is always the same framework. They just slightly change details. There are always the dungeons, raids, bgs, levels, endgame, quests, you name it. And then inside these boundaries, they start making the "changes". Our dungeons will be public dungeons, our quests will be dynamic events, we wont have holy trinity, we will have non-tab-targetting combat, etc...
How about trying to change the formula completely and create something truly new. In my opinion, there will not be revolution in the genre unless someone tries to break these boundaries.
The only thing I would disagree with is the combat. I kind of like the combat from the videos I have seen.

I feel that as long as MMO's continue to replicate the same old ideas into different formats, this game and others to come will always lack longevity. I think that the core goal should be to completely throw out the D&D/WoW format and come up with something new. New games like to come up with new names for stats or gear but basically they are just various ways of implementing the same material.
Why always strength, dex, con, int, wis etc etc?? why always levels and gold? Why not start out as 10y/o kid carrying rocks to defenders on the walls of a siege and then gradually age by actual experience? Have player actually LEARN skills, not train them for a price or because of a level. Why not have players randomly assigned looks, sex, race, and born into a random family of other, more advanced players? We don't get to choose our sex or race or skills prior to being born IRL so why not try to emulate this? Not saying this is a great idea, just saying that if a dummy like me can think of this in 5 seconds (and there are several other great ideas I read in this thread) then why can't devs?
I feel that no game will endure until the MMO introduces more chance, requires more skill and patience, and is organic and random in it's progression. NPC's that never move, or only know 2 sentences.. yawn. Give us player developed content that is permenant.
This is going to be a game where some people will simply have to see or play the beta in action to decide whether or not they think it 'feels" like Elder Scrolls or just another MMO.

"I shall take your position into consideration"
First off, I would like to state that my intention with this post is not to bump my old thread.
However, the question asked in the OP is still relevant for me.
When I made this thread, the hype of this game was around 6 and if you look at the replies, many people predicted that this game will be another 3 month business before it becomes boring.
On the other hand, some people answered that it was too early to ask this question.
The game is currently the most hyped title on mmorpg.com. (I realize is not directly connected to the question of longevity or even potential quality of the game as we learned with some of the most hyped titles of the past.)
I was wondering if they released any new information in the last 3 months which would allow you to give more accurate / educated answer to the question in the OP.
Where is the longevity in this game, FOR YOU.

Longevity is also one of my main concerns. One of the reasons why I'm in favour of P2P games and not B2P + cash shop. I don´t want to quit playing a game after a few months, I love the idea of building a virtual game community where everyone can do stuff and have fun.
1. More to do than just fighting
And so on. If every dungeon had like 5 "scenarios" for every spot (spots in the example: bridge, trapped corridor, troll spot) and the average dungeon would exist out of 10 scenarios + some random patrols, you never know what you're going to meet. It would keep the content a lot more unpredictable and challenging then static content that you can lookup on a wiki a week after release.

Can't possibly say as we don't now how often they will create updates, how captivating is the end game pvp (or pve for that matter) and if they actually somehow capture the feeling of an elder scrolls game.

Don't think the PoE way of changing the complete layout would work well in this ip but you could randomise the mob layout and what abilities the mobs have access to tho, speed runners would hate it, but I would love it!

I think this game will have longevity where others have failed. Some people fail to understand just how much community building things are in this game. First you have public dungeons which is excellent for building Alliance communities. Unlike raids in other games like WoW, the more people you bring the better, not only that but if a public dungeon raid starts at 8pm and you can't be on til 10pm, that's not a problem because you can just meet up halfway through. Or if you can only be on for the first half you can kill the bosses your raid kills and get loot til you have to leave.
Then you have something that DaoC had that no game has had since. That's Faction pride, people hear it all the time from daoc vets i know but there is a reason. DaoC was a game that even the most pvp hating person felt a sense of contribution when defending his faction's relics or keeps. Whole Pve raids would stop on a dime to go defend against the threat of a 200-300 person relic raid that hits multiple keeps at once. IF your guild owned a keep and your guild chat started spamming 123 invaders killing guards at your keep, you immediately alerted the alliances to come defend.
Then you have the uniqueness of the alliances. The land is your own and the stuff in it is only experienced by your realm. Some see this as a downside but it is definitely an upside. It makes your class and alliance feel much more unique and if by chance you do get bored, you have a whole other game to explore if you reroll to another alliance.(which by the way you probably wont reroll another alliance til much later in the game because most fall in love with their alliance and feel that sense of betrayal if you thought about rerolling)
Trust me, i think a lot of people on this forum are underestimating this game because of the last few years of failure games. I believe this one is one to break the mold though, Matt Firor is the guy I'd want behind an MMO.

This is almost certainly a Hasbro color code sheet, they send it to the factory to determine which colors go where on the toy. I don't believe this is the movie version, it's too soon and the design is a little un-movie-like. My guess is it's an Alternators figure, and a good-looking one at that. I ain't so thrilled about the desert color for Megs' base coloring, but I'll take it over no Megs tank alternator.
Oh, here's a photo of Classics' Astrotrain in train mode: http://www.tformers.com/article.php?sid=6036&mode=flat

As for Astrotrain, it might be mistransformed in the picture. But, that is the actual, correctly transformed toy....then JT and I finally agree on a toy.
i don't buy too many TF's but i definitely want Rodimus, Starscream, Prime, Bumblebee and even Astrotrain. i draw the line at nerf foam dart megs though.

Almost didn't post this cause its so blurry, but what the hey.
Target's exclusive 2packs, both TFU and CY, are now $4.24 at my store, that means it's the lowest it'll go. I picked up the last Overbite & Repugnus set. Repugnus isn't that good, and they assembled his mouth wrong. Overbite is worth the $4.24 though, a little weird but pretty nifty none the less.
Classics' Rodimus test shot on ebay:
I like the side alt view, but that spoiler looks stupid big. The back shot of bot mode says "I'm Cybertron's Hot Shot" a little much, but I'm still on board.
Titanium Series Optimus 6" in packaging:
Damn that looks badass, real clean for a packaging too. I love the "collect them all" and it's 1 guy.
Classics' Megatron alt mode UNPAINTED test shot:
I know it's not painted and won't be all that clear green, but it still looks so darn plasticky.
It's a Hasbro photo... so yeah, it could be. I don't think it is though, I think they got it right unfortunately.Originally Posted by Dominic Guglieme

I saw that Classics Grimlock colorsheet earlier, bot mode looks a little thin for the character, but all in all it looks quite promising.

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
The Megatron toy, especially if an Alternator (the first Abrams one versus a known car company) is completely Mega-nificent! Gosh I'd want one, plus the MP Starscream, Alt. Rumble - it's time I built up some Decepticons (having 8 Autobots and plans to buy Mirage, and a possible repaint of Skids or Prime if they are popular Autobot characters (like Blaster, Ironhide, etc). Again, I'd buy Starscream MP repaints for Skywarp and Thundercracker as that is tradition (Rollbar, Richochet, Skids, Swerve, etc. are not!)
I will definitely be getting WW Prime, since it'll be nice to be able to afford a figure of that design!
Classics Grimlock looks sweet! I'm happy to see the classic coloration combined with the more modern recreation of the Tyrannosaurus. I hope the rocket launcher is removable, though.
Tommy, close your eyes.
The one thing about this being Alt Megs is that if it is the case, his vehicle mode will be under-scale for sure. That won't keep me from buying him, but it'll definitely keep me from displaying him in alt mode next to the other Alternators' alt modes.
