Nauris Bulvitis and Arturs Zjuzins struck to hand former Southampton striker Marian Pahars his first win as Latvia manager at the expense of neighbours Lithuania. The victory in Riga lifted Latvia above their Baltic rivals and into fourth in Group G of the European qualifying section.
Both goals arrived in the first half and Pahars' men held on after Deivydas Matulevicius gave Lithuania hope just before the interval.
Latvia turned to Pahars in the summer after collecting just four points from their opening six games. After a friendly draw against Estonia last month, his competitive reign got off to a fine start as Bulvitis opened the scoring after 20 minutes.
Zjuzins doubled the lead in the 42nd minute but they were made to work after Matulevicius replied on the stroke of half-time. It was only Latvia's second win of the campaign after a 2-0 defeat of bottom side Liechtenstein 11 months ago.

New law forces HK-based companies to review privacy practices
Monday, 08 October 2012 10:01
Amendments to Hong Kong's data protection and privacy law will require CASBAA members (and other companies) to re-think their direct marketing and personal data practices. Some parts are already in effect, but the provisions on Direct Marketing will
come into force sometime around April 2013. Companies need to review the marketing data they collect, their handling procedures, and the notifications they provide customers. Later, "regulated" companies are expected to be covered by particular data-filing requirements from the Privacy Commissioner – but no one knows yet how broadly that net will be spread, and how many CASBAA broadcasters might be affected. Member company HoganLovells has provided an article describing the changes, and it can be downloaded here.
Indian Cable Digitization
Monday, 16 January 2012 00:00
CASBAA Urges Rate Decontrol, Strong IP Measures -- In a filing to India's TRAI, CASBAA maintained that there is substantial retail pay-TV competition in India that will restrain tariffs, and urged TRAI to forbear from regulating retail tariffs now and in the future. TRAI had set the right course with its July 2010 tariff order refraining from regulating retail rates of addressable systems (cable as well as DTH), CASBAA said, and it should stay the course. CASBAA also said that revised "interconnection" regulations governing relations between content providers and pay-TV platforms should make it clear that all players should cooperate in active antipiracy programs.

CASBAA Members Urge "Graduated Response" to Online Piracy in Hong Kong
Wednesday, 20 January 2010 00:00
CASBAA's member companies joined in urging the Commerce and Industry Panel of the Hong Kong Legislative Council to push for implementation of a educational and non-criminalized "graduated response" procedure to deal with online piracy in the SAR. The companies said they favoured a mechanism that would limit liability of ISPs for online infringement as along as they followed the graduated response procedures.

KINGSTON, R.I. -- January 28, 2000 -- As interim dean of the University
of Rhode Island College of Nursing, Dayle Joseph kept the College in step
with the changing world of health care, strengthened URI fund-raising and
alumni relations and bolstered initiatives to foster student and faculty
URI officials liked what they saw and recently appointed the East
Greenwich resident dean of the College, which enrolls 531 students,
400 of whom are undergraduates.
"Dr. Joseph's activities as interim dean proved her to be an effective
leader, manager and advocate for the College," URI Provost M. Beverly
Swan said in making the announcement, noting that Joseph is held in high
esteem by her peers.
Swan said Joseph's excellent reputation in the health care field is apparent
in her appointment to committees at Miriam Hospital where she addresses
issues ranging from ethics to research.
"Dr. Joseph brings energy, vitality and vision to the position of
dean of the College of Nursing," Swan said. "As issues facing
the health care industry become increasingly complex, we are confident that
she will guide the College and by extension, the health care programs at
the University of Rhode Island, with a sure and steady view to the future."
Last year under Joseph's leadership, the College prepared a planning
document that showed the College should be paying particular attention to
research, recruitment, diversity, practice, technology and outreach.
Joseph said she is proud of the College's role in the URI partnerships,
special initiatives to encourage cross-disciplinary research and learning.
"Our faculty members have gotten involved, particularly with the President's
Health Promotion Partnership in the areas of gerontology and diabetes. I
think there is so much more potential. It's wonderful that faculty members
are working together on such a wide variety of projects."
But for those partnership projects to work well and for the College to
thrive, the College must attract highly intelligent, highly motivated students.
Joseph is heavily involved in that effort too. This month, she hosted a
meeting at URI for Colleagues in Caring, a project of the Robert Wood Johnson
Foundation, which will study the recruitment of nursing students and staff
patterns in the clinical agencies. The meeting brought together representatives
from all of Rhode Island's hospitals, agencies, and organizations involved
in health care.
"We want to send the message to bright students that we need those
who are interested in science and in helping people," said Joseph,
who grew up in Cranston and is a graduate of Cranston High School
Joseph earned her registered nurse diploma from Rhode Island Hospital,
a bachelor's degree in school-nurse teacher education from Rhode Island
College, and holds two master's degrees, one in counseling from RIC and
one in nursing from URI. She earned her doctorate in humanistic education
from Boston University.
Her work experience is as varied as her educational record. She began
as a staff nurse at both Rhode Island and Cranston General hospitals, and
then became an instructor at St. Joseph's School of Nursing.
She joined URI as a part-time instructor in 1973, and steadily moved
up the ranks to assistant professor, assistant dean from 1984 through 1995,
associate professor in 1991, and then interim dean.
"I am very enthusiastic about the work I started here at URI,"
said Joseph who runs the only nursing college in the state that offers undergraduate,
graduate and doctoral degrees in nursing. "The College has been my
home for most of my career. I know the different roles."
A contributor to numerous nursing journals and winner of several research
awards, Joseph has reached out to the URI community by hosting "The
Friends of the College of Nursing" reception each winter since 1996.
That year, she also established the Annual Alumni Award, which recognizes
URI nursing graduates who have become respected local and national figures
in their fields.
"We invite students to the Alumni Award program because we want
them to meet with the people who have accomplished so much with their nursing
education from URI," Joseph said.
She has also thrown herself into fund-raising to benefit student scholarships
and faculty development. She also launched a major beautification project
of the College's exterior. The College has already raised $80,000 of a $100,000
campaign to renovate and expand the Hart Garden at the southeast corner
of White Hall.

Zito Works a Pair of Contenders
Halsey Minor's 3-year-old Fierce Wind drilled a bullet half-mile in 46 4/5 over a fast track at Palm Meadows March 24 for trainer Nick Zito in preparation for the $1 million Florida Derby (gr. I) at Gulfstream Park March 29.
Fierce Wind, a son of Dixie Union, scored a game half-length victory over Big Truck in the Sam Davis Stakes at Tampa Bay Downs last out on Feb. 16 for owner Four Roses Thoroughbreds, but has subsequently been sold privately to Minor with Zito retained as trainer.
Zito also had Robert LaPenta's 3-year-old Cool Coal Man out for a workout Monday morning at Palm Meadows, timed a half-mile in 48 4/5. The son of Mineshaft won the Fountain of Youth Stakes (gr. II) last out at Gulfstream on Feb. 24 and is expected to start next in the $750,000 Blue Grass Stakes (gr. I) at Keeneland on Apr. 12.

DC to Release Larsson Graphic Novels
Comic book giant DC Comics has announced that in partnership with the estate of Steig Larsson and Hedlund Library Agency the virally popular Millenium Triology will be made into a series of graphic novels.
The comic books will be released by DC's adult/mature audience branch Vertigo, known for titles like Nail Gaiman's the Sandman, Max Allen Collin's The Road to Perdition, Bill Willingham's Fables and Mike Carey's the Unwritten.
Dan Didio, the current co-publisher of DC comics, said: "The intricate characters and stories Larsson created in the Millennium Trilogy are a perfect match for the graphic novel format, where we can bring Lisbeth Salander to life in entirely new, visually compelling ways."
Each of the novels in the trilogy will appear as two volumes and be released in both paper and digital formats.
DC plans to release the graphic novel adaptation of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo in 2012. The remaining two books are to be adapted in the following years ( The Girl Who Played with Fire in 2013 and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest in 2014).

Strong preference is given to candidates with active research project grant support from the NIEHS. If R01 grant support is from another NIH Institute, the candidate must propose a research project and career development program which is expected to have a defined impact on the environmental health sciences, be directly responsive to the mission of the NIEHS, show a decided career shift to the environmental health sciences, and commit to directing an R01 submission to the NIEHS within the first two years of the K02 award which proposes to study the human health effects of an environmentally relevant agent. Examples of environmentally relevant agents include industrial chemicals or manufacturing byproducts, metals, pesticides, herbicides, air pollutants and other inhaled toxicants, particulates or fibers, fungal, bacterial, or biologically derived toxins. Agents considered non-responsive to this announcement include, but are not limited to: alcohol, chemotherapeutic agents, radiation which is not the result of an ambient environmental exposure, smoking, except when considered as a secondary smoke exposure as a component in the indoor environment (particularly in children), drugs of abuse, pharmaceuticals, and infectious or parasitic agents, except when these are disease co-factors to an environmental toxicant exposure to produce the biological effect.

From January 1 Ukraine refused to purchase natural gas from the European spot markets by the agreement with the German company "RWE".
The situation changed after the December agreement of the Presidents of Ukraine and Russia to lower gas prices. According to "Naftogaz", now Russian gas price is much lower than the European one, therefore the state holding will purchase "blue fuel" only from "Gazprom".

I've gained a new passion and respect for wire jewelry in the past two years, and it's largely due to discovering how versatile wire and wire jewelry making is. In fact, I'd go so far as to say there's almost no jewelry to be made without the use of at least some kind of wire.
In the free eBook, you'll learn to make six specific wire jewelry designs by favorite wire artists while also learning basic wirework techniques that you can then adapt to create your own jewelry designs. You'll discover how to combine wire with other elements, such as gemstones, without the use of soldering, plus how to create special wire jewelry components like bezels, bails, jump rings, and more. You'll learn to transform simple wire into metal jewelry elements by hammering or wrapping it, creating decorative wire coils and spirals, chain links, wrapped loops, wire-wrapped bezels, and more.
The Concerto Necklace by Cindy Wimmer is a perfect wire jewelry design for featuring artistic ceramic, glass, or clay beads with wire coils and spirals, which serve as wire connectors to turn the colorful elements into a cohesive necklace (or bracelet) design.
Joyce Tromp's Floating Crystal Cube Necklace features an open chain maille weave known as captive inverted round. The technique creates an open net effect, so you can fill it with just about anything that will fit inside it and not fall through the jump rings--and you can use just about any size jump rings you like. This versatile and exciting wire jewelry design offers a lot of opportunity for personalization.
What are you waiting for? Grab your pliers and wire cutters, because you're just minutes away from creating the stylish jewelry designs in Learn How to Make Wire Jewelry: Designs for Making Wire Jewelry with 6 Wire Jewelry-Making Techniques.

Americans for the Prevention of the Extinction of Satire (APES) have issued an alert and put forward the Gloomsday Clock by 6 seconds. The alert is in response to events in Florida which have caused yet more Usaian satirists to renounce their calling and seek other forms of employment.
US satirists have long been threatened by the sheer alarming silliness of real events in the US and the tendency of Usaian people and institutions to be self-satirising. APES president and spokesperson, noted satirist Rush Limbaugh, explains: "It is difficult for a working satirist to make a living these days. In order to be funny I have to sound more extreme than the right-wing pundits I am mocking and that is becoming nearly impossible to do."
Historically, US satire has been under fire for a long time. Many trace the decline to the famous declaration by Tom Lehrer that political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Kissinger was already one of the most famous mass-murdering warmongers in human history but also, as his intended co-laureate Le Duc Tho indicated (when explaining why he would not be accepting the prize) the prize was awarded for bringing an end to a war which was still raging and still causing mass suffering and death.
The problem is not a US problem alone. The Nobel Institute is not American at all. But as Limbaugh points out, the problem of satire has much deeper roots in the US. "People tend to forget that the Ku Klux Klan have always looked and sounded really stupid and insane. People forget that in 1985 the Philadelphia police dropped two bombs on some political activists causing a fire that killed eleven people and destroyed 61 homes. It's not actually funny, but even so, how could a satirist top that?"
The latest losses to US satire have come in response to a number of connected matters. The first is Florida's "Stand Your Ground" law. Mirrored by identical or near identical legislation in many states, the law provides that a person who feels threatened in a place in which they are lawfully entitled to be has no duty to retreat. The effect is that there is a greatly enhanced ability to claim self-defence. You only need a reasonable belief that you are in danger in order to/ use lethal force to defend yourself. Naturally, since anyone could, like yourself, be carrying a concealed weapon and could at any time shoot you and credibly claim to be threatened because you in turn can shoot them and credibly claim to be threatened, the ultimate logic is problematic. If this were applied to the Wild West there wouldn't even have to be some sort of tense showdown between pistol packing hombres, each willing the other to draw first. Unlike those civilised and lawful times both gun-totin' yahoos could open fire whenever they felt like it, secure in the knowledge that whomever was left alive at the end would be safely exonerated.
When the Circus court came to town they acquitted George Zimmerman. I won't go into much detail, but his self-defence claims rested on his own testimony. The prosecution could not question this version of events by showing that Zimmerman had contradicted himself on other occasions, because it was the prosecution that introduced the testimony. The prosecutor of the case had recently been more successful in securing a conviction against Marissa Alexander who had fired a warning shot to deter her enraged and dangerous ex-husband. She fired into the ceiling and, because a judge rejected her argument of innocence under "Stand Your Ground", she was sentenced to 20 years in prison for an incident in which no one got hurt. Alexander is of African descent.
"The actual application of the Stand Your Ground law by police and courts in Florida" Limbaugh explains, "reveals a certain racial bias. In reality what it means is that if you are not black, and you want to shoot a black man or teenage boy, you can do so. It is like lynching. The problem for our members is that afterwards you have to engage in a South Park-like ritual of constructing some emotive narrative about how the unarmed man that you just shot to death with the deadly weapon that you had on you was really, really super-scary and how you'll probably have to have therapy now because you have been forced to take a human life and that will scar you forever. We lost a lot of good satirists over the Zimmerman affair, and I'm personally struggling to do anything with it that sounds satirical at all."
Asked about the renowned Gloomsday Clock, Limbaugh responded that "I think we added about 10 seconds to the clock. It is now well into the early afternoon." Opinions differ as to the significance of the clock. Some think that when midnight is struck it will symbolise the time at which all satire has become eradicated, others believe that there is even less time and believe that by the time midnight actually strikes everyone is going to be far too drunk to care any more. Still others view the Gloomsday Clock in a more exotic light. To them, time is cyclical and midnight will mark only the end of another revolution. In this theory, by this point, the satirists will have become the real political actors while the politicians and pundits will have become a comical sideshow. "It's already happening. People are watching The Daily Show as their primary source of news. The satirical website Alternet now just prints the news and lists of the most insane thing the police or Republicans are doing. And last year the Republican Presidential Primary Show made a clean sweep of television awards in both the comedy and daytime drama categories."
Limbaugh slumps back in his chair, as if suddenly deflated and burdened. "Increasingly my own audience don't even think of me as a satirist. Soon the transformation will be complete. Me, at least the person I think of as me, will be gone, dead. And some right-wing loudmouth will be all that's left. He… I, will probably run for office." Limbaugh sighs deeply and sadly. "There's a natural order to things, and that's all there is too it."
Since going to press, APES has put forward the Gloomsday Clock by a further 18 seconds. It is now 1:38:46PM. In a press release APES attributes the two recent news stories. The first reveals that the US Government is justifying its alcohol prohibition policy by citing how well alcohol prohibition worked in the 1920's. The other story is entitled: "Abu Ghraib Torture Victims Sued by Their Torturers". USANITY will post regular APES updates, detailing the stories that push the Gloomsday Clock forward and make satirists lives so hard.

NBA Finals Game 5 Heat vs. Spurs preview: Which Heat team shows up?
Jun 16, 2013, 11:04 AM EDT
SAN ANTONIO — Which Miami Heat team will be on the bus to the AT&T Center for Sunday night's key Game 5?
We know what names will be there — LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh, etc. — but the Heat have looked like a different team game to game in this series (and the last one, for that matter). There was the passive, jump shooting team that played Game 3 and got blown out. There was the small ball, aggressive team from Game 4 that played much better defense, forced turnovers, blocked shots and took control of the game in the fourth quarter.
The Spurs are going to be the Spurs — they are a model of consistency. They are going to come out in this game and defend, move the ball and for the most part play smart. The quality varies a little night to night, but you pretty much know what you are going to get — if Miami makes mistakes San Antonio will exploit them and win.
The question is will Miami make those mistakes or come out more like late in Game 4 and impose their will on the contest?
"So I think this team we've always responded to a challenge, and right now this is our challenge," Wade said. "Our challenge now as a team is to see if we can put complete games together, back to back. So that's got to be our challenge that we have to look forward to."
As for Xs and Os, the Heat will come out starting Mike Miller again and going small.
"Against this team, we need to create space," Miami's Shane Battier said. "And just the threat of having three point shooters does that a little more. I think LeBron and Dwyane had a little bit more room to operate last game. And that's what we've done all year, that's why we've been a very good offense the entire year, league leading, is our ability to create space and make the other team make some tough decisions about their spacing."
The Spurs will have to adjust, and that likely means a lot more Gary Neal and a lot less Tiago Splitter, possibly even in the starting lineup. But either way they Spurs need more out of Splitter, who had his shot blocked three times and turned it over a few other times in Game 4.
The other key is Tony Parker's hamstring. It didn't seem to bother him at all in the first half of Game 4, he was getting in the paint and putting on spin moves, and the game was tied at half. But in the second half a combination of more Heat defensive attention and his hamstring clearly bothering him, that penetration went away. And then the Heat and their defense took over. He says he's fine, but…
There are no real secrets at this point in a series — these teams know each other well, it's just a matter of execution. I think we know we will get that from the Spurs. The Heat were a confident bunch on Saturday, but we will see who gets off their team bus Sunday night.
As fans, I just hope we finally get another close game at the end, one that is entertaining to the final minutes (like Game 1).

Heat will outlast the fading Spurs. Real good series but the HEAT will prevail.
- ceschatz - Jun 16, 2013 at 3:24 PM
Funny how every article is always negatively geared towards the Heat. "which Heat team will show up"?. What about the spurs? Last I checked they hot blown out twice in this series.
- aboogy123456 - Jun 16, 2013 at 3:56 PM
the media is ruining basketball. If you were an average fan you would think that the spurs suck and it's only up to the heat and lebron james's "confidence" to win the series. Truth is, it's more up to the spurs to win, and the most important storyline is Parker's injury, but that doesn't get as many article clicks.
- jbeagles23 - Jun 16, 2013 at 4:16 PM
Pretty sure wades injury is much worse than Parker's
- aboogy123456 - Jun 16, 2013 at 7:08 PM
even if that was right, at this point it's a surprise when wade isn't injured. Parker is not injured every playoffs, and he's a much better player at this point in their respective careers..

Dealing with Crummey powers
By Julius Giarmarco
Giarmarco, Mullins & Horton, P.C.
The increased estate tax exemption ($5.25 million for a single person and $10.5 million for a married couple, indexed for inflation), courtesy of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (ATRA), results in fewer persons having taxable estates.
This article will discuss several strategies to simplify the Crummey withdrawal power process.
Types of notice
Unless the beneficiaries of the ILIT are given notice of their withdrawal rights, gifts to the ILIT will not be eligible for the annual gift tax exclusion. Written notice to the beneficiaries of their withdrawal rights is the best evidence of notice. However, trustees often forget or neglect to send the beneficiaries written notice. Accordingly, the ILIT should also permit other forms of notice, so that if written notice is not given, the IRS cannot automatically treat all gifts made to the ILIT as taxable gifts.
In Private Letter Ruling 199912016, the IRS determined that a father's contributions to two trusts qualified for the gift tax annual exclusion where the beneficiary had "reasonable notice" of the contributions. Unfortunately, the PLR did not specify what "reasonable notice" consists of.
The ILIT should allow for any form of notice, including written, verbal, constructive, or "one-time" notice, or even no notice, when the beneficiary has actual notice. In Estate of Holland v Commissioner, TC Memo 1997-302; and PLRs 8008040 and 9030005, no other notice was required where the beneficiary had actual notice of gifts made to the trust (i.e., the beneficiary was a trustee, or a minor beneficiary's legal guardian was a trustee).
In addition, in four Private Letter Rulings from 1981 (PLRs 8143045, 8133070, 8138102 and 8121069), the IRS recognized a one-time notice that identified when future contributions were expected to be made. A one-time notice is particularly useful for ILITs funded with group-term policies.
In PLR 9532001, the IRS ruled that it would recognize Crummey withdrawal powers only in those situations in which the beneficiaries receive actual "current" notice of any gifts made to the trust. Thus, current written notice should be the goal, but other types of notice should not be omitted from the ILIT.
Paying premiums during the withdrawal period
The lapse of a Crummey power is a release of a general power of appointment to the extent the lapse exceeds the greater of $5,000 or 5 percent of the trust principal during the calendar year. By limiting a beneficiary's annual withdrawal power to the greater of these amounts, or by using so- called "hanging powers" within those same limits, the beneficiary will not be treated as making a "gift back" to the ILIT of the excess amount.
In addition, the gift back will cause the beneficiary to be a transferor of the ILIT for generation-skipping tax purposes, thereby possibly wasting a portion of any GST allocation made by the grantor to the ILIT.
The $5,000 or 5 percent exception refers only to a "lapse" of a power, not to a "release" or "waiver" of a power. Therefore, a Crummey power should never be released or waived. Does this mean that the trustee has to wait until the withdrawal period ends before paying the premium? If so, this could present problems for the initial premium where the trustee does not want to wait for the withdrawal period to expire before putting the policy in force.
It can also be a problem when a premium is past due and the remaining grace period is shorter than the withdrawal period specified in the ILIT. Although there is no authority on this point, it should be possible to provide in both the ILIT and the notice letter that the trustee is permitted to use gifts to pay premiums during the withdrawal period. As long as the Crummey withdrawal power is lapsing (as opposed to being released), the $5,000 or 5 percent exception should be available. For the Crummey withdrawal powers to be legitimate, the ILIT should allow the trustee to access cash values and to transfer a fractional interest in the policy itself to satisfy any exercised withdrawal powers.
Ability to change Crummey power holders
The ILIT should give the grantor (or any other donor) the right to cancel or modify a beneficiary's (or contingent beneficiary's) annual withdrawal rights for two reasons. First, a beneficiary may become uncooperative and begin exercising his or her withdrawal rights, thereby thwarting the purpose of the ILIT. Second, if the grantor has a sufficient number of beneficiaries to cover the gifts being made to the ILIT, the grantor may wish to cancel a particular beneficiary's withdrawal right to make different annual exclusion gifts to that beneficiary.
In Private Letter Ruling 9834004, the IRS approved an ILIT provision that gave the grantor the ability to cancel a beneficiary's withdrawal right, modify the amount subject to withdrawal, and change the period during which the beneficiary's withdrawal power could be exercised. The IRS ruled that such a provision would not cause any adverse gift or estate tax consequences.
One advantage of ATRA is that for persons with ILITs who no longer have taxable estates, they may be able to do away with sending out Crummey notices. But, see Don't throw away those old ILITs just yet for a number of reasons why those same persons should retain their ILITs.

this adapter or your own homemade equivalent. Your only option for GC games from an external USB HDD is buying a WODE.
ok was hoping there was a app like the Game loader app from wiiflow has, so icould load my GC games on my HD , i was reading some stuff on WIIgator do u know much about it ? Or it a totally diffrernt subject?
Do u think there may be an app that will allow u to load the game cube games onto a HD and be able to play then via eg Wiiflow or HB channel. ?

this adapter or your own homemade equivalent. Your only option for GC games from an external USB HDD is buying a WODE.
my console crashes after loading any gamecube iso i've tried, and in some cases the game will boot until the first screen of the game
my wii is NTSC-U (although i'm in a PAL country), i'm using a NTSC gamecube original disc (resident evil zero disc 1) to boot, and i'm also using NTSC gamecube isos. Nevertheless using a PAL game to load seems to make no difference (same result).
I also have Priloader installed, but the region free options are all disabled (again, enabling them seems to make no difference)
i have the recommended MIOs version, and latest version of swissbooter (0.3?)
any ideas?

and now i'm getting an error message
something like that: there's a disk error, please consult you gamecube manual"
i finally got this to work with alien hominid NTSC-U (with audio issues), but i had to use exactly the files provided in the first page's pack. also i cant disable disk spin, or i'll get that gamecube service error message

What is the max size SD card I can use? Will Anyone tried 16 & 32 GB SDHC with Gecko? Darkcide666 is using a 4gb but I don't know about the others - some sites quote only 2GB
Last edited by 100up; 07-23-2011 at 02:44 PM.
i've used SD cards with 10 MB/s and SDHC cards with 10MB/s and 20MB/s (sequencial read) and they all perform exactly the same
i'd say if there is a minimum read speed is quite low (about 2 MB/s or so)
Do I need to convert GCM files back to the original full size image? If so how do I do that? I tried GCM fixer and that didn't work at all. Thanks
i always use gcm scrubbed/shrunken games
as for all the games i've tested none needed to be an untouched or full size iso to work properly (either they work or don't)
but if you really want to "restore" the isos try this app. i've never tested it myself but apparently works

Two teens freed from Ceredo shaft
CEREDO — Firefighters rescued two teenagers from a floodwall shaft late night Thursday in Ceredo.
The incident caused no serious injuries, but deeply frustrated Ceredo Volunteer Fire Chief David Caudill. He struggled Friday morning to find a good reason for the teens to have been in the area.
The 40-foot shaft is part of Ceredo's floodwall pumping system, Caudill said. It pumps excess water from a pond within the protected area to a spot beyond the floodwall. It's accessible by way of a 20-foot catwalk, and four grates cover its 4-by-12 foot opening.
Caudill said firefighters noticed one of the grates was displaced upon their arrival. He described it as a heavy-duty covering not easily moved by wind or similar conditions. Such a reality added to his frustration.
"The whole story is kind of bizarre," he said. "There was no good reason to be over there."
A dispatcher with the Ceredo Police Department described the incident as under investigation. He said potential charges are pending, but provided no further details. The police chief was unavailable for comment.
Wayne County 911 received word at 10:30 p.m. Thursday of an 18-year-old woman trapped in the shaft, which is located in the 1100 block of C Street in Ceredo. Firefighters arrived within 11 minutes and reported a second person also trapped inside. Caudill described that person as 17-year-old boy.
Caudill estimated the teenagers were chest deep in 10 feet of water. They were not treading water but were hanging onto a pipe at the time. Crews lowered Caudill into the shaft via harness, and he helped the woman with a harness to hoist her out.
Wayne County 911 dispatchers noted the woman as having been freed at 11:05 p.m., followed by the other teenager at 11:12 p.m.
Caudill said the teenagers appeared to be in good condition. Both were transported to an area hospital as a precaution, according to Caudill and dispatchers.
Caudill said the teenagers were joined at the shaft by a group of friends, one of whom called 911 for help.
Members of the Ceredo and Kenova Volunteer Fire Departments were among agencies that responded to the scene.

As hard as it may be to believe, Hanukkah's not too far off. The year is drawing to a close, lessons have been learned, and now it's time to celebrate the impending new year. Here are eight practical and useful gifts your loved ones are sure to appreciate during this festival of lights:
1. HP7 LED Flashlight.
Few flashlights deliver quite as much illumination as the HP7 LED flashlight. It packs 251 lumens into a compact, easy-to-carry size. With its ability to switch between a wide floodlight and a bulls-eye spot beam, this LED flashlight is highly versatile for just about any outdoor situation.
2. C5799 Pocket Pliers Multi-tool.
This multi-tool is a no-nonsense and practical device. With a built-in LED light, rubber handle inlays, wire cutter and stripper, file blade, saw blade, knife, scissors, and various screwdriver tips, the Pocket Pliers multi-tool the perfect household tool for small chores.
3. G20 LED Flashlight.

4. Black LED Micro Pliers Multi-Tool.
Perfect for hard-core survivalists and thrill-seekers, this multi-tool is military approved for its durability and supreme utility in the field. It's useful for any number of tasks, from opening a can of rations to sawing small branches for kindling.
5. Black Skeleton Folder Knife.
This knife measures just over four inches when folded but presents an intimidating titanium-coated, partially serrated blade when opened. Its skeleton-style handle will appeal to those with a bit of a wicked side.
6. A10 LED Flashlight.
This surprisingly powerful LED penlight emits 66 lumens of light and makes an ideal gift for technicians, computer geeks and anyone else who needs a good inspection light.
7. EAL15 Emergency Area Light.
Keep your loved one safe and comfortable with the Coast Emergency Area Light, an energy-efficient LED lantern that provides a comfortable area light for normal use and also includes a flashing red emergency signal setting – just in case.
8. G45 LED Flashlight.
It's hard to beat the value of this compact, 135-lumen flashlight, whose wide, clear flood beam offers maximum light for minimal cost. Not only is it a powerful torch, but it can run for more than 8 hours on a single set of batteries.
This year for Hanukkah, invest in the smaller things in life – the tools that get the job done at the end of the day.

text: I am asking everybody here to say a prayer for a local player. He is an older gentleman named Pat Johnson. pat is an old time player known by both Dick Leonard (####leonard) and myself. In his day pat was a good 14.1 player competing in alot of tournaments back then. I know that his high run is over 200 balls. A couple of years ago Pat got cancer and had it beat. His original cancer gone a new cancer has appeared in a different part of his body. He stopped in our local pool room a week or so ago to let everybody know what was going on and pat did not look to good. I honestly think that he came to say good bye to all of his friends. So please say a prayer for Pat tonight. I would really appreciate it because i am going to miss all the kidding we had together over the years..............mike

Well Ernesto Hoost won this years Grand Prix, although he had such damn luck to even be in the tournament! First Bob Sapp knocks him out and Mr Hoost fails to qualify for the championship, than the oponent that Sapp was going to fight in the Grand Prix was injured so Mr Hoost got a free ticket and another chance against Sapp. Once again The Beast knocked him out, than once again lady luck smiles on Mr Hoost when Sapp gets injured after the fight so once against Hoost is qualifyed even though he lost!
Okay enough about that, i think that Bob Sapp will most definetly win the next Grand Prix! He is unstoppable, he takes punches like a mountain he has no technique but man he is like a steamroller!
I dont think there is one single fighter right now in the K 1 world able to defeat this big guy! If he improves his technique and stamina ( He was death tired after the recent fight with Hoost) and maybe works on his kicks (He tried to kick Hoost in the recent fight but almost fell backwards when he tried to lift up his leg).
And another thing Lebaner VS Cro Cop? Who would win?

"Hoost is qualifyed even though he lost! " lol, I haven't watched many K1 matches at all (overall) but that's stupid.
"no technique but man he is like a steamroller! " from watching his MMA fight he does have technique, just not as good as everyone else.

What kind of stuff aside from allowing everyone else to use weapons would work against a machine like Sapp?
I mean, you hit him, he shrugs it off and hits you twice as hard. Jesus, if he took BAJI !, they'd have to carry what was left of his opponents out on two stretchers and an urn.
Maybe stuff from arts like BAJI ! and Taiji could be used against him? I remember hearing about Muay Thai having some jumping knees and kicks to the head, what about those?

If you are thinking of undertaking a long distance voyage any time soon and are within reach of London by 18th August, this is a seminar you won't want to miss.
Thinking of heading off?
The Cruising Associations (CA) Blue Water Section, is organising a Long Distance Sailing Seminar to be held at the CA headquarters in London's Limehouse Basin on 18 August 2012.
The programme deals with topics of interest to both those at the planning stage and cruisers currently sailing in locations where 'home' is only reached by airplane.
The programme commences with registration at 09.30 and will continue until approximately 17.00. Plenty of time has been allowed for discussion at the end of each presentation and further informal discussion will be possible with speakers, after their presentation. The library will be open and available during and after the seminar.
Mid ocean-things that could spoil your day by Vyv Cox, a frequent technical contributor to Yachting Monthly and PBO who will advise on inspection and hopefully avoidance.
Power on Board by Matt Boney who has recently written an article on the subject for long distance cruisers. He will be talking about generation, storage, conservation and monitoring of power
Staying in Touch will be presented by Ed Wildgoose of Mailasail, who provides satellite and wifi communications equipment, services and expertise
Victualling and Food Care by Sandy Duker, BW secretary who has been sailing long distance for 17 years and has well over 100,000 sea miles behind her will talk about care, keeping and cooking food for long passages
Grenada- a yachting destination, a brief talk by Sharon Bernstein on the benefits of Grenada as the location to leave your boat safely whilst you return home or travel elsewhere.
Fuel Care-Biocides and Bugs, another brief talk by Tony Warr, a BW member who in a previous life ran a business supplying diesel biocides to airlines and fleet vehicle operators
Yacht Preparation and Equipment for long distance sailing, to be presented by Michael Hartshorn, a BW member currently sailing in N. America for the second season.

Managing Medical Matters on Board, a talk by Dr Bernie Smallman, a regular speaker at the Medsec seminars, dealing with the problems of resolving medical issues on board when you may be several days away from professional help.
For those wishing to stay on for supper or just a chat, the bar will be open after the seminar. Limited car parking is available and overnight cabin accommodation is currently available for members.
The cost for the seminar is £18 for members and £45 for non members and includes tea, coffee and refreshments during the day and a buffet lunch. Places are limited so early booking is advised.

(ABC 6 NEWS) -- It was an attack that left a 39-year-old man with permanent injuries, and another man with convictions for attempted murder and assault. And on Thursday, Galuak Rotgai learned his future.
"It was called in as an assault," Mower County Sheriff Terese Amazi recalled.
When law enforcement officers responded to the City Limits apartments on the edge of Austin on April 8th, they found a beating victim suffering life-threatening injuries.
"The actual assault occurred with a baseball bat," Amazi said.
28-year-old Galuak Rotgai was arrested at the scene. In September, a jury found him guilty of attempted murder and assault. On Thursday, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
"He always claimed it was basically self-defense," Mower County Sheriff Terese Amazi told us.
The state, citing the fact that the victim was struck in the head a second time after the first blow left him unconscious, asked for an upward departure from a presumptive sentence of 153 months. County Attorney Kristen Nelsen told the court the victim "will live the rest of his life in a nursing home."
"Not technically life support, but certainly being aided to breathe," Sheriff Terese Amazi explained.
A pre-sentence investigation said Rotgai took "no accountability" for his actions.
Judge Fred Wellman, who pronounced sentence after reviewing case law, told the court it was a miracle the victim survived at all. Galuak Rotgai will be eligible for parole after serving two-thirds of the 240 month sentence.

First Posted: Thursday, February 2, 2012 -7:21 a.m.
Last Update: Wednesday, February 8, 2012 -2:38 p.m.
NORTH CREEK Less than a year after negotiating a contract with Warren County, owners of the Saratoga and North Creek Railway are now seeking to re-draft the agreement to temporarily cap their ongoing payments to use the county rail line, and share the cost of about $1 million in track upgrades with the county.
At a meeting Feb. 2 between county supervisors and railway officials, a decision on the concept was postponed for at least 30 days.
The proposal calls for the county to temporarily forego its contractual 6 percent slice of the railway revenue beyond a minimum of $81,958 — in return for Iowa Pacific investing about $1 million up front in upgrades to the county track that stretches between Corinth and North Creek.
Ed Ellis, CEO of Iowa-Pacific Holdings — the parent company of the railway, and railway consultant David Simpson made a presentation to county Supervisors Feb. 2 requesting the cap in payments to the county. Five-sixths of those payments was to be set aside by the county anyway in a reserve fund for major repairs.
Ellis noted that in 2011, Iowa Pacific already spent $800,500 in repairs and maintenance, far beyond the $300,000 annually specified in the contract. Iowa Pacific also spent $280,000 in improving track at the Saratoga Springs rail station.
With Iowa Pacific earning $3 million in revenue per year, the foregone payments would total about $500,000 over five years, at which time the 6 percent payouts to the county would be reinstated. Ellis said he expected that revenue would surpass that figure, prompting the end of the temporary cap in three to four years.
Supervisors questioned whether the cap might leave a shortfall in the 2012 county budget. county Superintendent of Public Works Jeff Tennyson replied that only the $81,958 was penned into the budget as revenue. He noted that the primary impact of Iowa pacific's proposal was that the county's reserves wouldn't accrue as much in the next few years.

Liz Smith: Stephen Sondheim's "Follies" Still Glitters Darkly After All These Years
And more from our Gossip Girl: fashion advice for confused men
"HATS OFF! Here they come — those beautiful girls…" sings Michael Hayes in his old-fashioned tenor. This is the opening of the musical "Follies" being presented at the Marquis Theater. I don't really know how many times I've seen this great James Godman–Stephen Sondheim musical, but I could go back annually just for the incredible score, which celebrates the girls of the Weismann Follies having their last reunion.
I hope I'll be forgiven for saying that, for me, this revival doesn't come up to the original, which had Harold Prince and Michael Bennett masterminding the most dynamic and glamorous musical I've ever seen. But this revival is still bracing, unusual and often great fun, and I appreciate the hell out of getting to enjoy it all again. (I do have a slight quibble. Sitting third row center, the delightful reporter David Patrick Columbia and I thought most of the performers were not "projecting" and we had a hard time distinguishing the lyrics even though everybody seemed to be "miked." But then, we knew all the lyrics by heart anyway. Maybe it's the fault of acoustics in the Marquis Theater.
In the first act, where everyone gathers in Weismann's old theater (which is about to be torn down,) ghostly images from the past glide about in dramatic costumes, making it seem like "Dracula" — but never mind. These sprites stay with us even through the intermission, a touch I liked. Nothing really takes off until Terri White does her incredible "Who's That Woman?" number and the old showgirls dance with their younger selves. Brilliant.
There are a few things I think are underdone. In "Broadway Baby," why is the beloved and popular Jayne Houdyshell so under-dressed when she'd have been the first Follies girl to try to look good and stay in the game? And other moments are overdone, like the half charming but dangerous burst-of-anger turn by Danny Burstein as Buddy. No one needs to be choreographed as that angry!
And there were moments I just adored — Jan Maxwell doing the Alexis Smith-original Tony-winning role singing "Could I Leave You?" This unsung actress is compelling onstage whatever she does. Both male leads — Ron Raines and the aforementioned Danny Burstein are strong, easy to understand — and these guys can really act. British icon Elaine Paige shows a sardonic, cynical self in "I'm Still Here," and this distinguished actress managed her American accent to perfection! She looks and sounds great — though I can't understand why director Eric Schaeffer kept her sitting upstage so long before letting her come down and go boffo!
The surprise of the night for me was the charm of "One More Kiss," done in operetta style by Rosalind Elias singing with her younger self, the beautiful Leah Horowitz. The audience went wild for Mr. Sondheim's little history lesson of the origins of musical comedy, harking back to old Vienna.
And then there's Broadway's genius ingénue and now mature, sexy and gifted leading lady, Bernadette Peters. She presents here a woman not only asking "Am I Losing My Mind?" but one already gone. She is indelibly lovable, but maybe it's the way Goldman wrote the part; it's just too neurotic and downbeat. The way this character comes off, one wants to send Cher up onstage to slap her and say, "Snap out of it!" (But I will love this grand girl always for what she brought, brings, and will bring to musical theater.)
So, go see "Follies." It's chock full of nostalgia with four bitter human stories surrounded by beautiful young people, all in love with show biz. The music and lyrics alone are worth the price of the admission.

Hey, guys! Want to look as if you are a current fashion maven? Have your jacket re-made too small for you and be sure that in all your suits, you are straining the jacket buttons, leaving a gap just enough at the waist to show a portion of your shirt and belt buckle. A Tommy Hilfiger look, for instance.
Also, slim down your pant legs and don't wear socks. (Ugh! Sticky bare feet sticking to a leather insole, but all the males working at the Ralph Lauren stores have this look!)
Personally, I like to see men wearing socks over their bare shins and ankles and I also like to see slim, tailored suits that don't look as if one is crammed into them, like maybe the suits made by that great Texan, Tom Ford.

We have all seen the rise of flashy, aggressive advertising by energy drinks over the past decade -- and with it, the rise of energy drinks as an accepted medium of drinks. For many people, Red Bull, Rockstar and 5-Hour Energy have replaced their morning routine of coffee.
These energy drinks carry amazingly high amounts of caffeine and they have little oversight from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. That may change soon as another member of the energy drink brotherhood -- Monster -- is under fire after a wave of fatal incidents related to their product.
Five people have recently died after drinking Monster energy drinks; with one of the incidents involving a young girl who succumbed to caffeine poisoning. This is in the wake of a five-year period (2005 to 2009) where emergency room visits due to the consumption of energy drinks has dramatically climbed (roughly 13,000 per year at present).
So what can be done by the FDA to get a better handle on these dangerous, albeit approved, products? Well, it's a little more complicated than just limiting the amount of caffeine in the drinks. Depending on how a new product is defined, it can be subject to different regulations. For example, if the product is a "conventional food," then it has to have a nutrition facts label on it. If the product is labeled a "nutritional supplement," then it only needs a supplemental facts label.
The company gets to decide which of these tags is applied to their product, and the FDA can appeal the choice -- but it can take a long time for that appeal to come to fruition, let alone the fact that the FDA deals with these things on a case-by-case basis.
However, recent events are pushing the FDA towards launching an investigation into the energy drink industry.
