Frequency offsets between a received carrier signal and a receiver's LO frequency are compensated by determining the offset and adjusting the phase of a demodulated signal derived from the modulated carrier. For frequency offsets that produce DC voltage offsets in I and Q components of the demodulated signal, the phase correction is implemented by operating upon the I and Q components with phase rotation operators in the form of sin θ and cos θ, where θ is an angle whose tangent is the result of dividing the Q by the I frequency offsets.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to the compensation of frequency offsets between a modulated carrier signal and a local oscillator signal, and more particularly to frequency offset compensation which is effected by adjusting the demodulated signal phase.
2. Description of the Related Art
The present invention has particular application to the Bluetooth™ wireless technology data communication system, although it is not limited to this technology. The Bluetooth specification, established by the Bluetooth SIG, Inc., integrates well-tested technology with the power-efficiency and low-cost of a compliant radio system to enable links between mobile computers, mobile phones, portable hand-held devices and the like, and connectivity to the Internet.
Part of the Bluetooth physical layer specification calls for binary frequency shift keying (FSK) with a modulation index of 0.28–0.35 to be used as the modulation method, the term "modulation index" being defined as the peak-to-peak frequency deviation in the modulation signal divided by the modulation's data rate. The modulation data rate for the Bluetooth wireless technology is 1 Mb/sec, which yields an allowable peak-to-peak frequency deviation of 280–350 kHz. The Bluetooth specification also allows for the transmitter's frequency to be accurate to within +/−75 kHz, thus permitting a maximum possible frequency offset (FO) between the transmitted carrier frequency and the receiver's local oscillator (LO) frequency as high as 150 kHz. This is larger than the minimum peak frequency deviation of 140 kHz (half the peak-to-peak frequency deviation). Without compensation for this error, the receiver can detect the incoming data 1 and 0 bits as all ones, or all zeros. This would effectively generate a 50% bit error rate (BER), as opposed to the 0.1% BER Bluetooth sensitivity specification.
A prior frequency offset compensation technique in the form of DC offset compensation for FM discriminators is described in National Semiconductor Application Note No. 908, "Specification For The DECT Ari 1™ Interface To The Radio Frequency Front End", September 1993. This circuit seeks to recover the mean DC level of the input demodulated data signal, based upon a filtered version of the input data stream. The accuracy of the DC recovery depends upon the DC content of the incoming data (which is zero in the case of the preamble for a non-offset Bluetooth technology data packet), and also upon the time constant of an RC filter used in the circuit. The longer the time constant, the more data bits must be received before (the correct DC value is achieved. Once the DC value has been acquired it is held on a capacitor, removing any further dependence upon the DC content of the incoming data. This circuit has proven effective in a system in which the incoming preamble had 32 bits with zero DC content. With the Bluetooth wireless technology, however, the preamble is only 4 or 5 bits long, which can lead to errors with this approach. With such a short time constant, the circuit would significantly degrade the receiver's performance by having too great a dependence upon the incoming data's most recent value.
An improved version of the DC offset compensation scheme is disclosed in "Switched DC Offset Compensation And LO Tuning For Frequency Offset For FM Discriminators For Bluetooth", presentation by Parthus, 2 May 2001. In this technique, as with the Application Note just described, a DC voltage level varies in accordance with the amount of FO. However, the DC loop has a switched bandwidth which automatically changes based upon the difference between a new average DC value and the existing DC value. The loop also provides for compensating the FO by tuning the receiver's LO to narrow the FO between the received signal and the LO. While this reduces the amount of DC offset at the demodulator output, the system is best used with a frequency discriminator in which the FO directly translates to DC offset.
The present invention provides an improved apparatus and method for compensating FOs between the carrier and LO frequencies, and is based upon adjusting the phase of a demodulated signal derived from the received RF signal.
In one embodiment, the FO is determined by comparing the down converted and demodulated signal to a reference signal level which is based upon a frequency characteristic of a received data packet's preamble, which in this case is an FSK characteristic. Equal numbers of samples of the demodulated signal are accumulated for both of the FSK modulation frequencies during the preamble, and compared with a reference signal level which corresponds to an intermediate frequency between nominal values for the FSK frequencies, preferably the mid-range value. Non-zero FOs result in an output level which varies with the difference between the reference signal level and the average value of the samples, which in turn represent the FO.
One embodiment of an FO compensation circuit provides phase rotation operators which correspond to different values of the FO, as determined by the FO determination circuit. The phase rotation operators are applied to the demodulated signal to adjust its phase in a manner that compensates for the FO. This is preferably accomplished with separate phase rotation operators for the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components of the demodulated signal in the form of sin(φ) and cos(φ), respectively, where φ=tan−1 (FOQ/FOI), and FOI and FOQ correspond to the FOs associated with the I and Q components, respectively. The I and Q components are multiplied by sin(φ) and cos(φ), respectively, in a complex multiplier, with the results combined to yield an FO compensated output signal.
Rather than having to establish a continuous loop and repeatedly update the compensation, an entire received data packet can be compensated with this technique based upon the compensation provided from the packet's preamble. The compensation is preferably performed digitally, and the phase rotation operators can be pre-stored in a lookup table at fixed FO steps. The result of the complex multiplication is a compensated imaginary output which can then be used for data recovery.
These and other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from the following detailed description, taken together with the accompanying drawings.
The present invention deals with the compensation of FOs between a received carrier signal and an LO signal used to demodulate the information borne by the carrier. While it is particularly useful in meeting the Bluetooth specification, it is applicable to RF receivers in general.
A representative RF receiver with which the invention can be used is illustrated in
A preferred LO generation circuit comprises a sigma-delta phase locked loop 14, the output of which controls a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) 16. The VCO output in turn is multiplied by two in multiplier 18 and processed through a bandpass filter 20 to produce the desired LO signal on mixer input 12. A relatively low IF is chosen so that the signal can be digitized and demodulated digitally with a reasonable current budget.
After downconversion, the signal is filtered by a complex polyphase bandpass filter 22, which attenuates all out-of-band and adjacent channels to at least 6 dB below the desired signal level, and then to a programmable gain amplifier 23 which provides automatic gain control; its gain is set based upon a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) circuit 24. The RSSI circuit ensures a constant signal level at the input of an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 26 that converts the signal to a digital format. The ADC preferably has 8-bit resolution to provide sufficient dynamic range for both interference margin and signal-to-noise ratio for proper demodulation. It is preferably digitized at 10 Msps.
The digitized output of ADC 26 is downconverted to baseband by a quadrature downconverter 28, which can have the option of a 180� phase shift to invert the spectrum for the case of a high side LO downconversion from the RF. The quadrature downconverter outputs have in-phase I (real) and quadrature Q (imaginary) components. They are sent to a pair of finite impulse response (FIR) low pass filters 30 which provide additional filtering of adjacent channels and also decimate by two, so that the output sample rate is 5 Msps.
The FIR filter outputs are delivered to a differential demodulator 32, which performs a complex differential detection by multiplying the received data stream by a one symbol (bit) delayed, complex conjugate version of itself. The mixer 10, quadrature downconverter 28 and differential demodulator 32, together with the intervening receiver elements, collectively form an extraction circuit that derives a demodulated signal from the received RF signal, based upon the LO signal.
The I and Q outputs of the demodulator 32 are delivered to a phase rotator 34, which compensates for FOs between the carrier and LO signals by rotating the phase of the demodulated signal, as explained in detail below. The I output of the FIR filters 30 is also delivered to a preamble detection circuit 36, which detects the preamble of a downconverted data packet. This information is used to actuate the phase rotation process.
The FO-compensated output of the phase rotator 34 is delivered to a symbol timing recovery (STR) circuit 38, where the received data's clock is recovered. The output of the phase rotator is also sent to a delay block (not shown) to synchronize the received signal with the STR circuit's output.
The output of the STR circuit 38 is delivered to a logic state detect block 40, which determines whether the received data is a "1" or a "0" by detecting whether it is above or below a predetermined threshold level. Block 40 includes a sample portion in the form of a register that is clocked by the recovered (and possibly delayed) clock from the STR circuit 38. The recovered clock signal samples the received data stream at its maximum amplitude, minimizing the effects of noise. The output of logic state detect block 40 is a "sliced" data bit stream at 1 Mb/s rate, which constitutes the receiver output.
A block diagram of one implementation for the differential demodulator 32 is given in
It can be seen from the demodulator outputs that the FO manifests itself as a constant phase offset in the sine and cosine functions that varies in magnitude according to the size of the FO. For small FOs, this phase offset causes a DC offset in the received signal. As the FO increases, however, the demodulated signal begins to compress, which causes a reduction in the resulting signal-to-noise ratio and an increase in the bit error rate (BER). The signal amplitude also begins to decrease, causing a smaller decision distance for a given input power level, and hence increased bit errors.
As shown in
The sums produced by adders 60 and 62 are compared with the ADC mid-scale value (or with zero if mid-scale is removed from the sum) by comparators 64 and 66 for the demodulated Q and I components, respectively. The differences produced by the comparators represent the average DC offsets of the Q and I components, which in turn correspond to the Q and I FOs (hereinafter referred to as FOQ and FOI). Since the Q sine function will be zero for zero FO while the I cosine function will be at a maximum, the FO can be taken as a function of θ=tan−1(FOQ/FOI).
The Q comparator outputs are supplied to a lookup table 68 which stores phase rotation operators in the form sin θ and cosθ. The entries in the lookup table correspond to the sine and cosine of specified FO increments, 40 kHz in the particular implementation described.
The actual FO compensation is performed in a complex multiplier 70 comprising a first multiplier 72 that multiplies the Q demodulator output (after a 2T delay) by the sin(θ) output of the lookup table 68, a second multiplier 74 that multiplies the I demodulator output (after a 2T delay) by the cos(θ) lookup table output, and an adder 76 that adds the results of both multiplications to produce a compensated Q output in the form
A typical DFSK data packet that can be used to modulate the carrier is illustrated in
The access code 78 is illustrated in
As mentioned previously, two preamble bits are accumulated in adders 60 and 62 (
With zero FO and the bits balanced about ADC midscale, the sample values over the ten sample period will accumulate to zero. For non-zero FOs, on the other hand, the samples will accumulate to a non-zero value corresponding to FOQ. The production of FOI by adder 62 and comparator 66 is similar, except FOI will have a maximum value for zero FO, and a zero value for a 90� FO.
The phase compensation produced by complex multiplier 70 in response to the sin θ and cos θ operators from lookup table 68 is illustrated in
While particular embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, numerous variations and alternate embodiments will occur to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, it is intended that the invention be limited only in terms of the appended claims.

The June 2010 Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Dawn of Doable and Delicious. Dawn challenged the Daring Bakers' to make Chocolate Pavlovas and Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse. The challenge recipe is based on a recipe from the book Chocolate Epiphany by Francois Payard.
Pavlova is a meringue-based dessert named after the Russian ballet dancer Ánna Pávlova. Colloquially referred to as "pav", it is a cake similar to meringue with a crispy crust and soft, light inner. The dessert is believed to have been created to honour the dancer during or after one of her tours to Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s.
Chocolate Pavlovas with Chocolate Mascarpone Mousse, Brandied Cherries and Peaches
Recipe Source: Chocolate Epiphany by Francois Payard
Chocolate Meringue {for the chocolate Pavlova}
3 large egg whites
½ cup plus 1 tbsp white granulated sugar
¼ cup confectioner's sugar {I powdered 1/4 cup sugar with 1 tsp cornflour}
Fill a pastry bag with the meringue. Pipe the meringue into 6 rounds or whatever shapes you desire. Alternatively, you could just free form your shapes and level them a bit with the back of a spoon. {I made 6, but 8 would have been a good serving size too}
Bake for 2-3 hours until the meringues become dry and crisp. Cool and store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Do stop by HERE and take a look at the marvelous pavlovas the rest of the talented daring Bakers have whipped up this month.

BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) The numbers keep climbing and this time the rise was anything but gradual.
Jeff Gordon set the track qualifying record at Michigan International Speedway on Friday with a speed of 206.558 mph, winning his 76th career pole in NASCARs Sprint Cup series. Gordon broke the previous mark of 204.557 by a remarkable margin and that record was set just two months ago by Kevin Harvick.
Speeds at MIS have been climbing ever since the two-mile oval was repaved before the 2012 season. When Marcos Ambrose reached 203.241 that year, it was the first time anyone won a pole at over 200 mph since Bill Elliott did it in 1987, before horsepower-sapping restrictor plates were introduced at Talladega and Daytona. Joey Logano broke Ambroses record last August, only for Harvick and Gordon to keep pushing it higher.
I dont know where to start, Gordon said. You can point at the repaving of the racetrack. This track is smooth has a tremendous amount of surface area where the tire can get a lot of grip to it. The next thing is the cars.
Gordons run Friday was the seventh-fastest pole-winning speed in the history of NASCARs top series.
NASCAR overhauled its qualifying process before this season, switching to a knockout format similar to Formula One and IndyCar. NASCAR now uses three rounds of qualifying at tracks 1¼ miles in length or larger. The entire field has 25 minutes to post their fastest single lap and the top 24 advance to the second round.
The second segment lasts 10 minutes, and the fastest 12 advance to a final, 5-minute round.
There have been 17 qualifying records set this season, so this is not simply an MIS phenomenon.
It has nothing to do with the racetrack picking up speed, said Logano, who qualified second behind Gordon. It has (to do with) what weve been doing to the race cars to go faster. ... I believe its cooler out, too. So I think between those two things, thats why we went faster again, but the racetrack itself isnt picking up speed. The racetrack, if anything, is maintaining to getting slower. But its widening out, so its becoming a better race.
It was Gordons second pole of the season. He also qualified first last week at Watkins Glen but finished 34th, giving up the series points lead to Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Not everyone took advantage of the favorable conditions at MIS. Earnhardt and Johnson failed to advance out of the first round of qualifying. Earnhardt was 25th and Johnson 30th.
Johnson, who won at Michigan in June, has finished out of the top 10 in the last five races and 28th or lower in four of them.
Weve just had a vibration with our car, really a shake, a violent shake through the corner, Johnson said. Weve been trying to get to the bottom of it. We made it better, and it certainly went faster, but just not enough. Well go back to the drawing board.
Carl Edwards qualified third, followed by Brian Vickers and Brad Keselowski.
Its fast thats the simplest way to describe it, Edwards said. I wish you guys could ride in that car with me there. That is screaming.

I was essentially obligated to attend a colleague's soirée here. Her fiancé lives in Bergen County, N.J., and rarely goes out anywhere in the city outside of Tribeca where she lives. He chose 8th St. because the location suited most people and he'd read positive reviews on Yelp. I will spare you my tasting notes on the wines selected by the staff, and say only that one red was quaffable, at best. I must, however, warn future victims of the food offerings. Since we were a large group, we ordered most items on the limited menu. Claim: Grilled Gulf shrimp and chorizo with golden potatoes, red peppers-garlic puree. Experience: the pre-cooked shrimp were floating in a pool of grease from some cheap spicy bulk pork sausage. The potatoes were grey, the peppers green and the puree putrid. Claim: Wild mushroom quesadilla with goat cheese, chipotle, tomato, cilantro, sour cream. Reality: Canned white button mushroom stems and pieces with some type of Tex-Mex cheese food spread, to create the appearance and flavor of goat cheese, chipotle, tomato, cilantro, sour cream. Claim: Grilled panini Italian "Super Hero" with cured meats, artichoke, provolone, chianti vinaigrette. Reality: Clearly a pre-made, frozen generic "Hot Pockets" type food product, most likely from Walmart. I wouldn't doubt, however, that the Chianti vinaigrette is made in house, and may just be straight from the wine bottle which already tastes like salad dressing. Claim: Pulled pork sandwich with pickled jalapeno mayo, cucumber-radish relish. Reality: There was mayo. Lots of mayo. So much mayo you'd have no idea there was pork buried in that soggy, stale bun. As for pickled jalapeno, there was no spice to speak of.

I went here with a friend last night for the first time and really loved it. They have great happy hour deals that include $18 bottles of wine. The atmosphere is very cozy, and the wine selection is wonderful. We had a couple of appetizers, and my only complaint was that the oysters we ordered were not very cold and tasted a little fishy. Otherwise, we loved it and will definitely come back soon.

Visited 8th street last night after having not been for a year and was glad to see they still live up to what I remembered. It's a fun, chill, good value wine bar, perfect for a couple drinks with friends, a date or a dinner. Plenty of good, affordable bottles (many bottles under $35 which is a bargain)though not much on the high end of the wine spectrum if that's your style. Great cheese, great meat, great mac n cheese. Service is fine but can be a little chaotic at time. All in all a great spot, def worth a visit of you're in the area.

Tapas + merlot =Manna from Heaven. Top-heavy with journos, and that's how we like it. Rainbow hour Sangria is a real pleasure. Eddie Murphy bought us a round in June; he was a bit blotto, but a gentleman for certain. St.Émilions, and Pomerols debate was hysterical.

Went here for the first time with a friend for drinks, ended up getting dinner too. The wine list is fairly extensive for such a small place (had a delicious Malbec) and although I had been served a glass or two before the food arrived, the food was great too. Split Tuna Sliders and an Eggplant Panino; finished it off with the cheese plate. They certainly get their money with the prices for wine by the glass (like all wine bars), but it was such an enjoyable experience I didn't mind.

This place has a pretty good wine list and the staff is always helpful with choosing the wine. The tapas type menu has some amazing stuff. The yellowfin sliders and meatballs are out of this world. It's a small place but a great spot to meet up for a few drinks and apps.

My girlfriend had her birthday party at 8th Street and it was amazing. Tables were saved for us, we had our own personal bar tender who was very nice and knowledgeable about different wines. I had one bite of the mac & cheese and it was delicious. The prices for bottles of wine were very reasonable. They also had a great selection of beers and whiskey. Overall, they did a fantastic job providing us with a great night. I would highly recommend for a small party or after work drinks.

Huawei Ascend D2
Last Updated: Dec 19th,2012
The Huawei Ascend D2 is rumored to be the manufacturer's CES flagship device. With stunning specs and great features, it should satisfy the most demanding Android enthusiasts, but is it enough to beat the big guys? The device is said to sport a 5-inch 1080p display, a 1.5 GHz quad-core processor, 2 GB of RAM and Android 4.1, so we say it does.

The "Leaders Among Us: Peer-Led Efforts to Promote Healthy Eating and Active Living in California " report contains a review of the literature and case studies about peer-led health promotion programs for the California Department of Public Health, conducted by the Atkins Center for Weight and Health at University of California Berkeley.
The consumption of electrolyte replacement beverages, which are becoming increasingly popular in public schools, is associated with weight gain, diabetes and obesity. Beverage standards recommended by the Institute of Medicine call for the elimination of electrolyte replacement beverages from public schools to promote healthy beverage consumption.
A systematic literature review was conducted to determine whether sweetened beverage intake increases the risk for obesity, and the extent to which it has contributed to recent increases in energy intake and adiposity in the USA. All lines of evidence consistently support the conclusion that the consumption of sweetened beverages has contributed to the obesity epidemic. It is estimated that sweetened beverages account for at least one-fifth of the weight gained between 1977 and 2007 in the US population. Actions that are successful in reducing sweetened beverage consumption are likely to have a measurable impact on obesity.
The period from 10 to 14 years of age ("tweens") has been considered a critical period for the development of obesity which would most likely last into adulthood. Recent research shows that a high rate of television (TV) viewing is a critical contributor to weight gain in children of all ages.
The 2007 California Childhood Obesity Conference (CCOC '07), held in Anaheim, California, addressed the nation's childhood obesity epidemic. The primary focus was on prevention strategies aimed at high risk and low-income communities.
Position of the American Dietetic Association: Individual-, Family-, School-, and Community-Based Interventions for Pediatric Overweight is a thorough evidence based review of the interventions to prevent and treat childhood overweight, conducted in collaboration with researchers from the University of Texas and Louisiana State for the American Dietetic Association, published in the Journal of the
Pediatric Overweight: A Review of the Literature discusses the prevalence of overweight, risk and protective factors for overweight in children, as well as effective interventions and barriers in school and community-based settings.

Spot of bother as St Just see their Cup hopes dashed
Posted: October 04, 2012|
THERE was to be no repeat of the previous weekend's shootout victory for St Just, who exited the League Cup at the first hurdle as St Agnes won 4-2 on penalties after Saturday's tie at Lafrowda Park finished 2-2 after extra-time.
The Tinners triumphed 8-6 on penalties in their Cornwall Senior Cup success against Falmouth Athletic seven days earlier, but it was a different story this time, despite a brave fightback by St Just, who had fallen behind to two first half goals from a St Agnes side currently sixth in the table.
Duane Britten gave the visitors the lead after eight minutes with a free-kick, and after St Just missed a couple of golden opportunities to equalise it was Aggie who doubled their advantage through Sam Connolly.
But St Just's depleted side improved dramatically in the second half and reduced the arrears when Stuart Nicholls latched onto a ball over the top of the St Agnes defence to find the net.
The hosts continued to press forwards and were finally rewarded for a sustained spell of pressure when Jon Bird forced the tie into extra-time after heading home the equaliser.
However, St Just were to rue another batch of missed chances in the second period of extra-time as the tie went to penalties which saw St Agnes come out on top to secure their place in the first round draw.
Ludgvan were also knocked out of the competition after a hat-trick from Wendron's Ryan Tresidder settled an entertaining game at Underlane.
The former Truro City youngster put the home side three goals to the good before the Hurlers mounted a second half comeback with a brace from former Penzance and Mousehole striker Gerens James, but it was too little too late for Anthony Hosking's side, who will now play in this season's Supplementary Cup.
Hayle looked on course for a place in the first round draw after goals from Tom Morris and the appropriately named Danny Scorer gave them a 2-1 interval lead at Goonhavern.
But after Mark Wilson headed the home side's first before the break, the Reen Manor Park outfit stunned the visitors with four second half goals, the first from former St Blazey and Truro City winger Ian Gosling before a late hat-trick from Paul Robertson settled the outcome.
IT'S as you were at the top of the table after Falmouth Town and Illogan RBL both won their respective fixtures on Saturday.
A Luke Wort hat-trick sent Town on their way to an emphatic 5-0 home victory over mid-table St Day at Bickland Park, with Ben Ambrose and Jason Roberts netting Falmouth's other goals.
Dominic Pullen was another hat-trick hero as he was again among the goals in Illogan's 4-2 win at Falmouth Athletic, for whom Ryan Whitby scored both goals. Ian Cullingham was also on target for Illogan, who remain two points behind leaders Falmouth Town after nine matches.
Mullion climbed four places to fifth spot after running out 4-1 winners in a local derby at Porthleven. Rob Carey bagged a brace for the visitors, whose other goals came from Jack Sherlock and fomer Port striker Alan Thomas. Gavin Perraton netted a consolation for Porthleven who remain fourth from bottom.
Perranwell gained sweet revenge for last week's Senior Cup defeat at Troon by beating them 4-1 in the league. A goal from Troon player-boss Jamie Marles on the half-hour cancelled out a 20th minute penalty from Perranwell's Jimmy Thompson, but it was Perran who went on to claim a resounding win with second half goals from Thompson, Dean Southworth and Liam Paddock.
Elsewhere, Penryn survived a scare at bottom side Holmans. Goals from Tarik Kalkan and Rikki Smith gave the basement side a 2-1 half-time lead after Stefan Churcher had earlier given Penryn the lead.
A shock looked to be on the cards at Blaythorne until the latter stages when the home side gradually ran out of steam, allowing Penryn to equalise through Scott Kellow 14 minutes from time.
And Kellow then grabbed his second and Penryn's third to leave Holmans empty-handed.
Saturday's fixtures:
Westinsure Cornwall Senior Cup, Preliminary round (1.30pm): Kilkhampton v Ludgvan.
First round (1.30pm): Goonhavern Ath v St Just; Lanreath v RNAS Culdrose; Pendeen Rovers v St Agnes; St Day v Probus; St Dominic v Bude; Troon v Wendron.
Jolly's Cornwall Combination (3pm): Falmouth Town v Perranwell; Mullion v Illogan RBL (2pm); Newquay v Holman SC (2pm); Porthleven v Falmouth Ath; St Ives Town v Hayle.

Black stone Cherry and the like
Hi Guys,
Their most recent album, Folklore and Supisition has a few acoustic tracks that I really like, I've only just been introduced to this band, and it's growing on me.
Does anyone know of other bands that are similar and have acoustic tracks that I should check out?
For anyone not aware of BSC, I would describe their sounds as Southern Rock/Country music, they seem to have heavily detuned guitars a step and half maybe.
Don't be afraid to suggest anything!

New Driver And Ghost Recon Delayed Again By Ubisoft
by Brad Nicholson on
Quality concerns, yadda, yadda, yadda.
As Game Informer notes, these two titles were set to appear at some point during Ubisoft's 2010 and early 2011 release window. Now, both titles will see a release during the 2011 and 2012 window. Obviously no date specifics were given in the Ubisoft report, but there's pretty much no way you'll see either of these games until at least April 2011 since Ubisoft's fiscal year doesn't end until March 2011.
Just think, once upon a time, Ghost Recon: Future Soldier was slated to hit about right now.
During a recent earnings call, Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot said that the Driver: San Francisco delay is all about polish. He explained (via Gamasutra) that it's "important to bring all the fine touches to the game so that it can become a good racing game that helps us to establish Ubisoft in the racing genre."
A similar response has been given about the Ghost Recon: Future Soldier delay. In an official forum post, Ubisoft senior community developer Kimi Matsuzaki said, "We are working to make the game the best it possibly can be and we're taking this extra time to do just that."
The Future Soldier beta is still slated to happen, by the way. But now it'll happen much closer to the game's release date, Matsuzaki confirmed in the same forum post.

Re: Dave Grohl
I wouldn't say that Dave Grohl was the ONLY good thing that came out of Nirvana. I think Nirvana was an amazing band, with their own original and groundbreaking sound.
Dave's drumming on their records may have sounded "simple" but the power and intensity that comes out of his playing is unbelievable. After watching some live Nirvana footage you can just see how much heart he puts into his playing.
In Queens of the Stone Age, Dave Grohl takes the same intensity that he had when he was younger with Nirvana and makes things a bit more interesting, as seen in songs such as "No One Knows."
Personally I give Dave Grohl props for his crazy intensity and amazing rock solid time.

"So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ." Ephesians 4:11-15, NIV

Another beast in the Class LL pit, divisional breakdowns, schedules, and MINUTIA
Howdy, The CIAC's Class LL division is generally considered the state's mas macho division. Sure, the likes of Darien,...
Old teammates could become new rivals this summer as the Connecticut High School Coaches Association is putting a new twist on summer all-star football games.
The CHSCA announced Friday that they will hold the Hall Of Fame Classic on June 29 at Rentschler Field (4:30 p.m.) The game will be played between two teams of graduated state high school seniors chosen via a draft.
The Classic replaces both the Hall Of Fame Classic between Fairfield and New Haven counties, as well as the Governor's Cup between Connecticut and Rhode Island.
Coaches will be announced for the Classic on Jan. 12 at East Haven's Anthony's Ocean View as part of Walter Camp Breakfast Of Champions.
The Classic will feature 110 seniors chosen to play based on coaches' recommendations and player performance at a March 24 combine at New Haven's Floyd Athletic Center. The teams will be selected later via a draft. It's possible, then, that players from the same high school team could be on opposite teams at the Classic.
The CHSCA will also host a golf tournament, a coaches' clinic and a youth clinic as part of the Classic.
■ ■ ■ ■

Went here for restaurant week and am in love! Go now as this is such a deal for an amazing restaurant. We had the peking duck spring rolls and vegetable dumplings to start. Very generous portions and classic presentation. For entrees we had the NY wok cooked sirloin - absolutely wonderful! Could not believe how much meat they gave you. Came in a great ginger sauce with sauteed mushroom. We also got the miso grilled salmon with udon noodles and spinach. Again, great. For dessert had the apple spring roll with icecream and tropical fruits with sorbet. This meal was so wonderful. I would love to go back asap. Definitely go during restaurant week if you can get in.

Let's kick this off by saying the food was pretty good. Highly recommend the Chilean Sea Bass skewers.... waitress was adequate. Scene was Bridge & Tunnel and for a hip mid-town scene, or supposed scene, we were disappointed. Poorly managed from a space perspective at the get go - coat-check backed up into the street, host/hostess lacking in charisma and talent. Nothing like going to eat in mid-town Manhattan and being given a buzzer.... felt like I walked in to the Cheesecake Factory at Riverside Square.... why waste the money on Manhattan real estate for the Jersey mall feel....Once and done for this New Yorker.

I took my girlfriend to Tao to celebrate her acceptance into medical school. Despite what is posted about long waits for seating, ours wasn't too bad. Got there at 6:15 for a 6:30 reservation, were seated by 6:40. One downside is that we were seated at a booth all the way in the back corner which didn't leave us with a very good view of the giant Buddha plus we were in the corner where everyone is going down the stairs toward the restrooms. Nevertheless, the food was quite good. The satay chilean seabass and tuna sashimi rolls appetizers were spectacular. I do not like sushi and this is the first time that I have ever liked it. For entrees, I had the Wok Seared Sirloin, which was quite good, and I was very impressed with the portion size as compared to standard upscale restaurant portions. She had the spicy tuna roll and the salmon, crab, avocado roll. She liked both of them, but felt that the rolls were smaller than normal. For dessert, we shared the Fuji Apple spring rolls, which was also good. Overall, I definitely enjoyed it and would certainly go back, if only my wallet would allow me to do so more often!

Tao is such a fun restuarant to take large groups. The ambience is fun with great decor, music, and a "scene." Not the best place for a romantic outing, it's definitely high energy and loud.The sea bass is one of the best I've ever experienced in NYC. I've been back at least 5 times and always have a great time....
Posted by nyc511 on 12/08/2004
I had a great time at Tao, the food was amazing and the service was also very good. Yes, the bar is beautiful, and there is plenty of room to hang out while you wait for your table-but-we had a reservation at 8pm and we didn't get seated until 9pm. This wound up being okay because we had some drinks and enjoyed our seat at the bar (and thankfully my low-blood sugar didn't kick in) but this could cause a serious problem for some people. So I figured I would post this as a warning, you really have to know this before you go- otherwise, place is awesome. Any restaurant that can keep their marks this high, this long, is a friggin landmark. Great food, have fun!
Posted by lauren on 10/11/2004
Great atmosphere.....It is a very trendy spot.....The only complaint is the wait. I had reservations for 9pm....we arrived at 8:30 and were not seated until 9:45pm....Other than that, it was great!
Posted by JM on 08/12/2004
There was a very mixed crowd - older socialites, young and trendy students, families with young children as well as business people. It is an attractive environment, but it's far too dark and is EXTREMELY noisy. I couldn't even hear someone who was sitting directly across from me at a very small table. Service is great, although we were on our way to be seated at a table when they realized there was no table to seat us at and abandoned us in the middle of the packed dining room. I am hesitant to go there again, despite the fact that our food was delicious.

What about my world, where you are arguing about this bullshit when we should be laughing at the OP video for it's over-the-top White Knightness and wonder whether Shane is even old enough to have had a prostate exam, let alone get in a lot of real fights and shell out Tube advice.
Didn't he just say "Bullies suck"?

Well, dungball, it's your big chance to make some shekels. Don't worry too much about the competition from Yoder and Daw: until they find out and then spitroast you, there is a website to be set up (complete with solo parental-basement vids), fees to be collected and coloured belts in diaphragm-fu to be mailed out.
Well? What are you waiting for?

Aww, I was so excited to read all of this (this is Shane, of fightTIPS). It's a bummer 4 of the 5 pages are two men arguing about their chests and heavy breathing :\
Anyway, it's an honor to be back on the Bullshido forums! Thanks for all of your support. And remember, it's pretty easy to find me and my gym if any of you can borrow gas money off your parents and drive my way!

Applications are now available for artists and arts organizations seeking grant support from the Expansion Arts Fund of Coastal Community Foundation. Priority will be given to minority, rural and economically disadvantaged artists, and to the creation of art that reflects Lowcountry heritage.
To be eligible, artists must live and work in Berkeley, Charleston, Dorchester or Georgetown County and have at least three years experience in their art forms or crafts. The deadline for grant proposals is July 12.
Small and emerging arts organizations may apply for up to $5,000 for organizational development, production of original works, exhibits of new and important community artists, renewed performances of classic repertoires of a particular culture or for the research, preservation and development of indigenous art forms.
Individual artists may apply for up to $2,500 to seek professional development, produce new work, reach new audiences or research indigenous art forms.
Thanks to local donors who responded positively to a challenge issued by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) to create a local funding source to provide grants to "Expansion Artists," The Expansion Arts Fund was created at CCF in 1988.
The Expansion Arts Program is conducted every other year, with alternating residency requirements. In 2011, applications were accepted from Beaufort, Colleton, Hampton and Jasper counties. In 2013, applications are being accepted from Berkeley, Charleston, Dorchester and Georgetown counties.
For complete information about the Expansion Arts Fund or an application, contact Program Officer Richard Hendry at 843-723-3635 x 104 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Guidelines and applications are also available on the foundation's website at www.CoastalCommunityFoundation.org (Click "Nonprofits" tab and select "Grants".)
Established in 1974, Coastal Community Foundation is a public grant making foundation fostering philanthropy for the lasting good of the community in Beaufort, Berkeley, Charleston, Colleton, Dorchester, Georgetown, Hampton, and Jasper Counties. Thousands of families, businesses, individuals and organizations have built more than 615 individual funds and endowments at the Foundation to benefit specific charities and/or broad areas of community life – education, basic human needs, conservation and preservation, arts, health and neighborhood/community development. In its 38-year history, Coastal Community Foundation has awarded more than $100 million in grants.
Last year, Foundation funds generated over $11.98 million for charitable programming, community projects, educational initiatives and scholarships and Foundation assets topped $147 million. To learn more, go to: www.coastalcommunityfoundation.org.

The two champions of rugby league collide, as north meets south in the 2013 World Club Challenge. Super League XVII Champions Leeds Rhinos will take to the field against NRL Premiers, the Melbourne Storm, for the honour of being crowned World Club Champions on 22nd February.
In the blue corner and representing England, Leeds Rhinos go into the match having already claimed three World Club Challenge titles over the past seven years as well as six Super League titles. The Melbourne Storm are no strangers to silverware themselves though, having been crowned World Club Champions in 2000 and twice NRL Premiers.
Home advantage for Leeds will undoubtedly play a big part but all the talking and action will take place on the rugby pitch.
Leeds Rhinos 2013 Home Super League S/S Rugby Shirt
Continuing with a traditional royal and yellow design, these colours dominate the body and sleeves of the Leeds Rhinos rugby shirt and are befitting of a team that so often also dominates the on-field action. The club badge is stitched onto the left chest and joined by several sponsors including Leeds Building Society over the centre of the chest. Even the shoulders and back do not escape the sponsor treatment which supports a number of local businesses.
Forming part of the ISC Game Day collection, this brings authentic club gear from the players straight to the dedicated team supporters, designed for true fans of the team.
Melbourne Storm 2013 World Club Challenge Rugby Shirt
Made by BLK, from 100% polyester, this Melbourne Storm rugby shirt has been developed to fulfill the needs of both the modern player and supporter.
For a professional look and feel to the shirt, the sponsors appear in a sublimated format across the front, back and sleeves whilst the Melbourne Storm badge is stitched atop the left chest.
As a unique touch detailing this historic sporting occasion, 'World Club Challenge, Melbourne v Leeds 2013′ is stitched in small navy lettering over the right side of the chest.
Even if you don't follow the Storm or Rhinos, take a look at our collection of rugby league shirts and clothing, with all the top teams from the Super League and NRL represented along with international offerings.
