SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Nintendo Co. will roll out the first new home videogame console the market has seen in six years this weekend, though the long-term potential for this latest game machine is far less certain than similar launches in the past.
Nintendo NTDOY, -0.91% 7974, -1.21% will put the Wii U on sale in North America on November 18 — less than a week before the kickoff of the traditional holiday shopping season. The console will start at $300, giving it a premium price tag to the starting prices of its two main rival consoles — the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 — which have long ruled the market for the sorts of hard-core, high-definition titles that appeal to traditional gamers.
Expectations are relatively high for the initial launch. GameStop GME, +1.20% reports that it has sold out of its initial allotments for the console. In an interview with MarketWatch, GameStop president Tony Bartel said the company has about 500,000 customers on its "wait list," most of whom have put down a $50 deposit to reserve a console as they become available.
"Our only concern is having enough supply to meet demand," he said.
Nintendo itself has projected that it will sell about 5.5 million units of the Wii U globally by March 31, the end of its fiscal year, along with about 24 million units of software designed for the console.
Like its predecessor Wii console, the Wii U is designed to appeal to a broader demographic. Nintendo has long cultivated a base of family customers as well as core gamers who grew up with its popular characters such as Mario, Donkey Kong and Zelda.
In fact, the new device builds upon the Wii in several ways. Players will still use the Wii-Remote — the motion-sensing controller ushered in by the previous console. But the Wii U adds a new element called the GamePad, which melds traditional analog stick-and-button game controls with a touch-screen tablet that allows players new ways to control their games — and in some cases, move the game off the TV set altogether.
The Wii U also offers games in high-definition, finally bringing the Nintendo platform on par with the offerings from Microsoft MSFT, +0.38% and Sony SNE, -1.87% 6758, -1.62% . This will allow the console to offer popular hard-core titles such as "Call of Duty: Black Ops II," "Assassin's Creed III" and "Darksiders II" at its launch. Read: Nintendo gambles with Wii U console.
Nintendo has also built a service called T-Vii within the device, that allows users to control their TV sets and navigate their cable offerings and other services such as Netflix and Hulu from the GamePad.
But the new console still faces several competitive hurdles. The videogame business has shifted significantly in recent years, as smartphones and tablets have become popular gaming platforms in their own right, with content often offered for a few dollars, or even free.
Analysts believe Nintendo has been hurt the most by this shift, as a larger portion of its customer base is believed to be composed of casual gamers who prefer the cheaper options over investing hundreds of dollars in a console and game disks.
"A lot of the people who loved Wii software early on are loving the software on their iPhone and iPad right now," said Doug Creutz, videogame analyst with Cowen & Co.
The Wii was a blockbuster success in its early years, following its North American launch in November of 2006. By the end of the March quarter in 2009, the global installed base had passed the 50 million mark. Nintendo has sold a little more than 97 million units of the console for its life-to-date, though growth in unit sales have been in the low single-digit range for the past two years.
Nintendo head demonstrates Wii U
After unveiling the new Nintendo Wii U, Nintendo of America's President Reggie Fils-Aime stopped by the WSJ offices for a private demonstration of the new console, and to discuss Nintendo's strategy for the new console.

Hi Everybody,
This thought keeps coming to my mind again and again and so I wanted to discuss and share it with other parents. I also sent an e-mail regarding this to the Jefferson City, MO but didn't get any response from them.
According to me, discipline is very crucial part of every child's lifestyle. The more disciplined he/she is from the beginning, the chances are he/she will continue that behavior into adulthood. In America, we instill the concept of beauty and looks and dressing-up from early childhood(something which should come into picture not before teen age). Even in a preschool, parents as well as children have to face a competition for wearing a dress better than others, using hair accessories, footwear and what not. I think this is the age when children are in a learning stage and their brain develop the most at this stage. So instead of occupying their mind with these silly thoughts and feeling, we should concentrate on their love to read. For this, I think there should be a ban on all those toys such as kids handbags, kids dressing table, kids make-up kits and the like. Also, there should be a uniform for all stages of school(from preschools to all the way to high school), probably the way they have in private schools. By enforcing such rules, every child looks the same, no matter what the race, class, creed, religion, origin or financial background. Also, there should be rules regarding their entire looks: their nails should always be trimmed, no nail poilshes should be allowed, no colorful hair accessories, hair should always be tied(if they can be tied), proper socks and shoes. This way, children can free their mind from something which is totally irrelevant at their age and concentrate on things which will make them responsible and disciplined adults.
I don't know what other parents think about my opinion, but I wanted to convey my point so that parents who have never thought this way might start thinking in this direction and you never know, may bring some positive difference in the future of our children.

Pecan Tassies
Presented by: Paula Nemzek from KCTS 9 Cooks
These delicious mouthfuls taste like tiny pies.
Makes 4 dozen
- 1/4 cup each butter and margarine, or use all butter
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 2 cups cake flour (All-purpose flour works as well.)
Mix ingredients together like pie crust. Form dough into 48 small balls, and press with your thumb into miniature muffin tins until dough reaches rim.
- 1/4 cup each butter and margarine, or use all butter
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 heaping cup golden raisins
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time and beat until smooth. Stir in raisins and pecans. Fill cups just to the top; do not overfill, as filling will rise during baking. Bake at 350 degrees 25 to 30 minutes, until tops are browned.
I tried these for our Thanksgiving get-together, substituting more chopped pecans for the raisins (so, 2 cups of pecans, rather than 1 cup pecans and 1 cup raisins). They were a hit, taste-wise! From a baking standpoint, I found them easier to remove from the muffin tins using mini-muffin tin liners. The first batch I only buttered the tins, and the pecan topping stuck fast more often than not (even having gotten the crust up to the edge of the tins), which yielded tasty-but-mangled treats. I went back to the store to get mini-muffin liners, and that solved the problem. If I were to make these again (very likely), I would just go ahead and use liners from the outset. Other than that wrinkle, they were extremely easy and quick to make.

Ashe Sheriff's Office Captain Carolyn Gentry reports that she was called to Ashe Memorial Hospital to investigate an alleged rape of an 11 year old child. Her investigation revealed that the child had met John Tyler Harms at the skating rink in West Jefferson. Subsequent to that meeting, Harms
befriended the child during meetings at the skating rink over the last month or so. On the night of April 30, Harms came to the residence while the mother of the child was working. Upon the return of the mother, the child was taken to the emergency room. Sgt. Danny Dillard and Josh Hopkins assisted in the arrest of Harms, 20, the Warrensville area man charged with Rape of a Child, 1st Degree Sex Offense, and Disseminating Obscenity to a Minor under the age of 13. John Tyler Harms is currently in jail under a $250,000 bond.

This is what I want so I hope you've got the answer:
On my own Server with PHP, Mysql I have a PHP script
that shows the online users. I Also put the online user
in a text file so i can access it easily.
The question is that I want to read the text file from
the main server (without PHP, Mysql) and insert the
users on the page (on the main server). This has to
be not a PHP command because we don't have that
The text line should be as follow:
"There are: " & own server/tekstfile & " users online"
I know this is a php forum but because it's related
with the problem i thought you don't mind. So i hope
someone got an answer.
Is this possible in HTML or javascript ? :roll:

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
The story of the history of a newspaper can never be complete without including the news that it carries. The reporters, editors and publishers, whose personal stories can be interesting and can also impact a community, are of little importance when it comes to the news that any newspaper carries within its pages. And so it is with the history of the Sun Advocate and its predecessors.
The 1920s was a time of watershed news in Carbon County. Probably the most well-known event in that decade of local news interest was the Castle Gate mine explosion which took place on Mar. 8, 1924. The disaster took the lives of 175 men. In some cases, it wiped out many of the male members of families, ranging from sons to brothers and husbands to uncles. The explosion left behind 417 dependents from 114 of the miners who died. There were 266 children without fathers, and 25 expectant wives who would end up having babies without husbands to help them. In five families' cases, there were seven people who were dependent on the dead breadwinner. The methane gas that had ignited in the mine had wiped out a large part of a community's wage earners.
But while that story is well-known among modern day miners and mining history buffs, others have forgotten that, just at the end of the 1920s, another mine disaster in Standardville took another 23 lives. Today, such a story would gain worldwide attention.
Mining was, and is, dangerous, but other events connected to mining also took headlines during the third decade of the 20th century.
Two years before the Castle Gate disaster, labor troubles flared up when a group of labor-connected men fired on a train headed to Scofield during a coal miners' strike. The train carried company guards who were being sent to Pleasant Valley to prevent the miners there from unionizing, and to protect miners who continued to work despite the strike.
The April 27, 1922 issue of the News-Advocate said that the incident was bound to bring federal troops to the area because of the shootings. Three men were shot, including a former federal marshal who was working for the company as head of the guards. No one died, but a horse was killed by a volley of bullets. One man, who was transporting the injured former federal marshal, had an "outlet" in his hat (a hole caused by a bullet), but was not injured. According to the paper, the governor had ordered federal cavalry to be loaded on trains from Salt Lake (Ft. Douglas), but T.F. Kelter, county sheriff at the time, asked that the troops be held back because he thought he could take control of the situation.
At the time, the tone of both the News-Advocate and The Sun leaned toward the companies and labeled labor agitators as troublemakers and imports who were allegedly brought in to cause problems. Some of the resentment by longtime locals compared to the new immigrants working in the mines was obvious. In the article, the paper pointed out that "90 percent of the Americans in the county are working" and that outsiders were the cause of the troubles.
Within the next week, both papers reported that strikers had intimidated people driving on roads in Spring Canyon and near Scofield. The reports said strikers had shot at people and that many families had been threatened that if their breadwinners continued to work, bad things would happen. On May 4, no less than four front page articles were printed relating to the situation, including one in which the Kiwanis Club of Carbon County debated the merits of the strikers and their claims. However, in that meeting, the club members mostly complained about the cost to the county for the police protection needed in the mining areas. There was a feeling expressed that state government should pay for controlling the trouble, because only 1 percent of the coal produced in the county was used in the county and the rest of the state ate up the other 99 percent. And, by that time, the governor, rather than threatening to send troops to the area, told the county to handle it themselves.
According to the editor of the News-Advocate, one of the "agitators" came into the paper's office and told him how to handle the news. He retorted with the following editorial (called "No outside advice needed") published on the front page on that same day.
"An imported parasite whose name we did not catch and for which we do not give a rap visited the News-Advocate Saturday to tell us how to run the paper. He was politely told to go to the dickens. If a committee of bona fide Carbon County miners, level-headed and disposed to obey the law, want to talk to the manager of the News-Advocate, they will be given an impartial, respectful and courteous hearing, but we have no time to waste on outside agitators. These outsiders claim they are running the strike in Carbon County and that the lawless, foreign element will obey them. Women and children are being shot at on public highways, men are being intimidated, and officers have been shot. The suffering public can draw its own conclusion as to who is responsible. As for foreigners who care nothing for the law or for human life, they cannot tell the News-Advocate anything, neither about the strike or anything else. We want no agitators, parasites or trouble breeders to take our time."
Regardless of the paper's stances, however, the present troubles would go on and generate more news in the county for some time.
Editors note: This is one in a series of stories concerning the history of the Sun Advocate which will celebrate its 120th anniversary in 2011.

Sponsored by Nevada State Senator Don Gustavson, the bill will be presented to lawmakers in February, when the state legislature reconvenes.
In a statement announcing the impending introduction of the bill, the Nevada state coordinator for PANDA, Christopher Corbett, said,
I appreciate the community support backing up our efforts and the courage of those members of our governing bodies who are willing to actively protect the constitutional rights of their constituents. We need to restore the Constitutionally protected right to due process for every American.
Any day now, President Obama is expected to sign into law the 2013 version of the NDAA. The president signed the 2012 bill into law on December 31, 2011.
The NDAA contains several unconstitutional provisions that are opposed by a broad spectrum of political action groups.
For example, Sections 1021 and 1022 of the 2012 act declare the United States to be a battlefield in the "War on Terror" and authorize the president of the United States to deploy the armed forces to arrest and indefinitely detain any American he suspects of supporting al-Qaeda, the Taliban, or "associated forces."
Those Americans grabbed and imprisoned by the president will be afforded none of the due process measures guaranteed by the Constitution. Specifically, those accused by the president of supporting enemies of the state will be arrested and held without charge, will be detained without access to an attorney, and will be imprisoned indefinitely pending the end of the "War on Terror."
During debate on the latest iteration of the act, Senators Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Mike Lee (R-Utah), and others passed an amendment to the bill protecting the right of a trial by jury to all citizens arrested under the NDAA. This language was subsequently stripped from the compromise version of the bill passed by the House and Senate.
In March during deliberations on the House version of the NDAA, Representative Justin Amash (R-Mich.) offered the only truly comprehensive amendment seeking to remove all unconstitutional provisions from the NDAA.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
It has been another difficult season for the Dino football team. Friday night's 61-20 loss to Grantsville was a tough pill to swallow for the squad that still hangs on to a hope of a decent season. With one more preseason game this weekend to get it together, Carbon still needs to find a way to stop the opponents offense.
For a somber Coach Paur, his bright spot was that the Carbon offense moved the ball better than they have been doing. But the plague of the team, penalties, kept the squad from being the true offensive force they could be.
The Cowboys took it to Carbon early and often as they went in three times in the first quarter before Carbon could score. Andrew Salazar punched in the first score for Carbon on a one yard run. Damian Olsen kicked the extra point on that play.
Tysen Stevens and Blake Najera continue to shine for the Dinos. They connected for a touchdown in the second quarter. With seconds ticking away in the third, Cole Stevens picked up a fumble and ran 56 yards for the final Carbon points. Landen Martindale kicked the extra point.
Defensively, Paur had little comment, "I really don't know what to say. We don't have very powerful linemen. Three of my starters were not able to play for one reason or another and that hurt. Most of the line are sophomores. And where that will help in future years, it doesn't help now."
He is still hopeful, "But we press on, the kids still have a good attitude. We will work hard and see what happens."
The Dinos play Ogden this Friday night with kick-off at 7 p.m. at the Carbon High field.

CROGHAN The Railroad Historical Society of Northern New Yorks old train depot museum has reopened for the season, displaying its many artifacts and railway memorabilia.
The museum which features an unusual model train display representing Lewis County rails, streetscapes and scenery is kept open by volunteers throughout the summer, and this year includes the help of Katelyn McKinney, an intern provided through the Pratt-Northam Foundation.
I love being around history, Miss McKinney said. Previously, she was a volunteer at the location for four or five years.
Ive always really liked it here, she said.
Looking ahead, the society hopes to have displays in the back room, which was once a storage room. The upstairs, former living quarters, may be turned into a room decorated for the period of the buildings construction in 1904.
Chicken-barbecue fundraisers are slated for Saturday and Sept. 7. The museums chicken barbecues are always a hit and sell out quickly, historical society President Donald A. Mooney said.
We have a drive-thru, just like McDonalds, Mr. Mooney said.
Chicken sales, which begin at 11 a.m., are conducted behind the museum, where vehicles can pass through to School Street.
The museum is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Monday. It is on Route 812 in the village at the crossing of the railroad tracks.
Admission is by donation only.
The museum also will be open for both Iron Horse Days in October and Christmas in Croghan, set for Dec. 6.

So I'm watching my beloved Wolverines get taken apart by Alabama, which, you know, was expected but still makes me a sad puppy.
But hey, there's a silver lining:
The music and sound design on those Ford F-150 ads that were aired (with Denis Leary doing the voice-over) was by my music production company! We just finished the two spots a few days ago. And yes, there's some PRS content.

So, despite their massive popularity – which even extends to celebrities like Lebron James, Lil Wayne, Gwen Stefani, and other a-listers – the Beats by Dre line of headphones has got a sort of questionable rep since its release.
The collection of high-end headphones has been criticized as having a sound that's too bass-y and artificial to warrant their equally high-end price tag.
To be fair, Beats is a line released by hip hop legend and beat master Dr Dre. And anyone who's ever listened to a hip hop track with less than strong and present bass will probably attest to the fact that Beats seem like the perfect fit for that genre of music.
Moreover, as Mashable notes, the headphones – which are compatible with Apple devices like iPhone, iPad and iPod – are probably better suited to a recording studio, where you get a range of sound equalizing options, than to a phone or tablet.
Still, there are some who'd prefer a more balanced sound from the ragingly popular headphones, even if they're listening to tunes on their mobile device. And, according to Mashable, there is a "secret iPhone setting that makes Beats headphones sound better."
We're not really sure how "secret" this is, but here's how to equalize your sound for your own tastes. By default, your iPhone has the equalizer (EQ) turned off. To access it, turn it on, and choose from two dozen settings, go to:
Settings >> Music >> EQ.
From there, you can select Bass Reducer, to reduce the boominess of bass when listening to with your Beats. If you actually love bass and want even more of it, there are settings like Late Night and Bass Booster too, as well as settings for particular music genres, from classical to jazz, hip hop, and electronica.
Just play around until you're satisfied. It's certainly no recording studio with its plethora of controls, settings and levels. We are talking about a phone after all. But it's certainly closer to the setup that Beats were probably intended for than your basic, un-levelled listening device.

While Emma Stone continues to build one heck of a career on the silver screen-the rising starlet has three buzz-worthy films out this year (Friends with Benefits, Stupid Crazy Love, and The Help) and a major blockbuster in the works (The Amazing Spider-Man)-her equally impressive sartorial resume is not lost on us either! In addition to the fact that the 23-year-old continues to top numerous best-dressed lists with her flawless red-carpet attire-including our Golden Globes coverage two years in a row!-we couldn't help but notice her off-duty ensembles are just as stylish and spot-on. Whether she's executing this season's hottest color combo with aplomb or working an effortless mix of casual neutrals, there's no doubt Stone is the perfect subject for this month's Style Spotlight!
&cjskuOne of the most noteworthy aspects of Stone's approach to dressing is that she doesn't always play it safe, especially when it comes to red-carpet events. We appreciate her willingness to experiment with a mix of bold colors or a statement-making print, as the resulting looks are fashion forward and always memorable. Case in point: the fabulous ensemble she put together for the Met Gala earlier this year. Stone looked absolutely stunning in a custom-made Lanvin rose-print silk-satin gown, which is perfect in keeping with this season's big florals trend. And while the dress is noteworthy on its own, it was her decision to add a pair of deep blue crystal drop earrings (also by Lanvin) and hot pink lipstick that gave the whole look a glamorous finish. Of course, that's not the only eye-popping outfit in Stone's repertoire! The actress caught our attention again a few months later at the New York premiere of Friends with Benefits when she wore the Red Wool Sweater ($650) and Fuchsia Wool Skirt ($1590) from Giambattista Valli's F/W 11 collection. We're mad about this of-the-moment color combo-which looks quite lovely with her fair skin and gorgeous red locks-and were particularly pleased with her minimal accessories, which included a pair of nude Christian Louboutin pumps, Salvatore Ferragamo's Bronze Lizard Minaudiere ($2350, 800.628.8916), and a Jack Vartanian ring.
While it's no surprise we're huge fans of Stone's show-stopping ensembles, there's certainly something to say for her more subdued choices as well! Whether it involves sultry lace or intricate accents, these outfits are supremely stylish and garner plenty of attention. For example, we went gaga for the Bottega Veneta F/W 11 dress she wore to the MTV Movie Awards two months ago. Featuring a beautiful lace overlay, strapless gold mini dress, and fringe detailing, the frock is both elegant and playful, making it a fitting pick for the youthful event. Stone showed off another lacey look at a Chanel Pre-Oscar dinner earlier this year, only this time she went for an ankle-grazing Chanel dress from the S/S 11 collection. To add further interest to the crisscross frock, Stone layered on a navy cropped jacket from said fashion house's Resort 11 collection and finished with Jimmy Choo's Lancer Crystal-Embellished Suede Sandals ($865), giving the overall outfit a ladylike-meets-bohemian feel.
Finally, today's Style Spotlight wouldn't be complete without noting at least one of the totally cute outfits Stone puts together when she's off the clock. When this leading lady isn't wowing crowds at premieres or creating flashbulb-worthy moments at fashion events, you can find her working a cool, downtown look. For example, we spotted Stone out and about in the East Village a few months ago wearing a Rick Owens leather jacket with a nautical-striped tee, Rag & Bone's The Skinny Jeans ($133) in Used Gray, and Lanvin flats, resulting in a spot-on mix of neutrals.
If you're ready to channel Stone's fashion-forward sensibilities, you'll be happy to know we've got all the necessities, including a few tips on how to execute her noteworthy ensembles with ease. If you're feeling a bit daring and hoping to recreate our style subject's bright red and pink mix, we suggest picking up American Apparel's Sheer Jersey Long Sleeve T ($26) or Zara's Embroidered T-Shirt ($30) and wearing either option tucked into Yumi Kim's Tulip Skirt ($128) for a playfully chic after-hours ensemble. Those who fancied Stone's dramatic floral moment should snag ASOS' Bandeau Maxi Dress with Floral Print ($60) pronto, however, if you're searching for a more playful party option, we think BCBMAXAZRIA's Gray Pleated Strapless Cocktail Dress ($215) is an outstanding alternative that's perfect for a girls' night out!
Additionally, we're smitten with Alice + Olivia's High-Neck Lace Dress ($597) and Milly's Adrienne Lace Dress ($345), as they are both incredibly chic cocktail dresses that also happen to be spot-on alternatives to Stone's lovely Bottega Veneta pick. Of course if it's a maxi dress you're after, don't hesitate to check out Eight Sixty's Lace Maxi Dress ($81); just be sure to style it with a structured jacket, like Aryn K.'s Cropped Vintage Jacket ($95), to give the whimsical frock a sophisticated finish a la Stone. Finally, if it's Stone's cool, casual mix you're after, start with Ann Taylor's Modern Print Stripe Top ($78) and pick up her exact Rag & Bone jeans or snag Divine Rights of Denim's more affordable Ankle Zip Skinnies ($28). Once you have your shirt and jeans sorted, finish your outfit with a leather jacket-ASOS' Collarless Quilted Leather Biker Jacket ($207) and Full Tilt's Faux Leather Moto Jacket ($40) should do the trick-and you'll have yourself a smart, Stone-inspired fall look in a flash.-Jessica Baker

I agree starters are more valuable than relievers. The Cardinals are loaded with starters. And they have a lights out closer. RIGHT NOW he benefits the Cardinals MORE as a closer.
You've already given a compelling case for the Cardinals with the starters they have "right now".

Operators at Exelon Nuclear's Limerick Generating Station removed Unit 2 from service at 8 am EDT today for a scheduled maintenance outage.
Pottstown, PA - Operators at Exelon Nuclear's Limerick Generating Station removed Unit 2 from service at 8 am EDT today for a scheduled maintenance outage. During the outage, workers will replace two steam relief valves, essential components of the plant's steam piping system. Plant personnel will complete the maintenance and fully test the new components before returning the unit to service. The repairs can only be performed while the plant is offline.
"Careful and continuous monitoring of plant equipment is essential to reliable operations at Limerick Generating Station," said Russ Kearney, Limerick site vice president. "This maintenance outage will ensure that we can operate safely and reliably during the peak summer season ahead. Our highly trained team is well prepared to perform the scheduled maintenance and return Unit 2 to service for our customers."
Limerick Unit 1 will continue to operate at full power during the outage. Limerick Generating Station is located approximately 21 miles northwest of Philadelphia. With both units at full power, the site can produce enough carbon-free electricity for 2 million homes.
Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) is the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately $33 billion in annual revenues. Headquartered in Chicago, Exelon has operations and business activities in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Canada. Exelon is the largest competitive U.S. power generator, with approximately 35,000 megawatts of owned capacity comprising one of the nation's cleanest and lowest-cost power generation fleets. The company's Constellation business unit provides energy products and services to approximately 100,000 business and public sector customers and approximately 1 million residential customers. Exelon's utilities deliver electricity and natural gas to more than 6.6 million customers in central Maryland (BGE), northern Illinois (ComEd) and southeastern Pennsylvania (PECO).

In the double-blind University clinical study, the specialty joint supplement Instaflex, when it came to joint discomfort, significantly beat out the control group.
Researchers at the North Carolina Research Campus concluded that Instaflex can deliver significant joint relief. Study subjects experienced significant reduction in discomfort during daily activities such as walking, using stairs, and lying down.
For those with knee discomfort, the study found a significant decrease in stiffness, and an increase in physical function during everyday activities including heavy household chores, bending and walking.* The study also concluded that Instaflex is safe to use, with no adverse symptomology or negative effects on general metabolism.
The proprietary Instaflex compound includes proven joint ingredients such as Glucosamine, but it's the fast-acting White Willow Bark Extract, Turmeric, Hyaluronic Acid, and Boswellia Serrata Extract that provide the biggest kick.
The single once-daily dosage helps:

I am still pretty new to PHP and have written a calculator script that takes Number1, divides it by 100, multiplies it by Number 2 then finally divides it by 20 (trust me there is a purpose to this!!)
The problem is that it (for instance) when Number1 is 254 and Number2 is 480 it returns 60.9600 when what I actually want it to return is 61.
I have tried every round(), floor() etc statement I can find but it still returns 60.9600!!!
The calculation is: $answare = $number1/100*$number2/20;
Please, please can someone tell me how to return just the integer part?

- Round-Trip Ground Transportation to Airport, Hotels, and Sightseeing Destinations
- Seven Nights of Four-Star Accommodations with Daily Breakfast and Two Dinners in Petra
- English-Speaking Guide and Luggage Tags
Good vacations can be hard to find, but you don't need to be an archaeologist to unearth this groundbreaking Escape: a nine-day sightseeing trip through Jordan courtesy of Classic Escapes.
Travel May 20 to 28 ($2,798), June 10 to 18 ($2,699), July 22 to 30 ($2,999), September 16 to 24 ($2,798), October 7 to 15 ($2,798), November 4 to 12 ($2,498), or November 18 to 25 ($2,297).* Your trip includes round-trip airfare from JFK Airport to Amman via Turkish Airlines and round-trip ground transportation to the airport, hotels, and sightseeing destinations.
You'll receive seven nights in four-star accommodations as well as daily breakfast, two dinners in Petra, an English-speaking guide, and complimentary luggage tags. After an overnight flight to Amman, you and a fellow historian will be escorted to the elegant Imperial Palace Hotel Amman, where you'll set up camp for three nights.
Begin your research by perusing Amman's many museums, then survey the area's ancient sites, including the Citadel, the early-Islamic desert castles, and Jerash, one of the most complete examples of a provincial Roman city. Stops in the more modern parts of the city will ensure a full range of cultural perspectives.
On day five, set out on the Kings' Road for Petra. You'll stop at Madaba, home to the oldest map of the Holy Land; visit Mt. Nebo, the purported burial site of Moses; and pass through the canyons of Wadi Mujib en route to the Crusader Castle at Kerak. Make time to review your field notes over two dinners at the Taybet Zaman, a world-class Bedouin-style resort in the farming village of Taybeh.
Spend the next two days studying the wonders of Petra, an ancient trading city famed for its rock-cut architecture. Ride horseback through the Siq—an immense crack in the Nubian sandstone—to reach Al Khazneh ("The Treasury"), Petra's most impressive monument.
On day seven, you'll travel through the Wadi Rum desert—dubbed the "Valley of the Moon" for its rolling red dunes and sheer-sided mountains—en route to the Dead Sea¸ the lowest point on Earth. After floating in its salty waters, rinse off and soothe parched skin with an array of spa treatments at your hotel, the Jordan Valley Marriott Dead Sea Resort & Spa. Put down the trowels and brushes to spend day eight at leisure. In the morning, you'll return to Amman for your flight home.
An Escape with this many layers can only be classified as once-in-a-millennium. Dig in now before it turns to dust.
*Price does not include $175 entrance fee per guest to be paid directly to Classic Escapes.
For additional information, view the Classic Escapes full itinerary.
"Petra is without doubt one of the Middle East's most spectacular, unmissable sights... Yet there's so much more to see in Jordan—ruined Roman cities, Crusader castles, desert citadels and powerful biblical sites."-- Lonely Planet

Confessions of a Black Magician, by Nathan Neuharth
By Psyche | 1 comment
Confessions of a Black Magician, by Nathan Neuharth Original Falcon Press, 9781935150794, 191 pp., 2010Our hero in this tale is the author himself, and as no occultist anywhere ever had but one name, he's known variously as Nathan Neuharth, Frater Parsifal, and Natas, or Saint Natas.The book opens with his initiation into the Golden Dawn, introducing a colourful cast of characters in his new fraters and sorors. Neuharth allies himself with Fater Azazel, a brother in the order who shares his affinity for Aleister Crowley and Thelemic magick. His experiments lead him to encounters with angels, and devils too, not to mention aliens and Atlanteans who offer him questionable messages.Inspired by Jack Parson's Babalon Working, Neuharth seeks to undertake a similar project he called the Babalon Isis Working. Various incarnations of Babalon appear as she is won, lost, regained and eventually walks out of his life. In the process Neuharth loses his wife, his kids, his job and very possibly his mind.

A pair of new studies has found lake sturgeon in two places, a sign of progress in the states effort to replenish its population of the fish.
Two wild juvenile sturgeon were found in Oswegatchie River near the outlet of Black Lake and in Oneida Lake.
This is a truly significant event, Joe Martens, state Department of Environmental Conservation commissioner, said in a statement. DEC staff and partners in this effort have been eagerly awaiting this news ever since egg-bearing female sturgeon were first detected in stocked locations one year ago. It is a great example of how, with good science and great partnerships, we can restore a species that nearly disappeared from our state.
According to the DECs release, the Oswegatchie lake sturgeon was found June 12 by a researcher at the U.S. Geological Surveys Tunison Laboratory of Aquatic Sciences, Cortland. The 2�-pound, 25-inch fish was 5 years old, and the only wild sturgeon caught in the river for more than 30 years. It may have originated from remnant wild fish in the system or from adult fish stocked in the Oswegatchie system more than 20 years ago.
The Oneida Lake sturgeon was caught July 30 by researchers from Cornell Universitys Shackleton Point Biological Field Station. The 2-year-old fish weighed 1 pound.
DEC said the capture of this fish indicates successful reproduction by fish stocked as 6- to 10-inch fingerlings. More than 8,000 lake sturgeon were stocked in Oneida Lake from 1995 to 2004.
Biologists at the field station predicted lake sturgeon would begin to appear in their walleye sampling nets once the sturgeon were about 2 years old.
DEC said lake sturgeon are the largest fish native to the Great Lakes, and can grow to 7 feet in length and 300 pounds. Once abundant, the fishs population dropped because of overfishing and the impacts of dams.
Lake sturgeon has been listed as a threatened species in New York since 1983. DEC said the population of the fish is about 1 percent of its total numbers before 1850. In an attempt to shore up its numbers, the DEC has raised and released more than 65,000 juvenile lake sturgeon since 1995.
DEC also received assistance from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services Genoa National Fish Hatchery in 2012 and 2013 to raise the fish for release into tributaries along the St. Lawrence River.
In its release, DEC asked anglers to avoid catching lake sturgeon by staying away from locations where they spawn in the late spring, and not bottom fishing with worms in areas they populate. If one of the fish is hooked, DEC said to release it immediately. More information about lake sturgeon can be found at www.dec.ny.gov/animals/26035.html.

The salon is open to the public and is held every six months for the benefit of those who want to present their works to an appreciative audience largely made up of others who are presenting works themselves. The next salon will take place in October.

Danny comes to Emmanuel College from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, where he recently completed his Ph.D. in English. His dissertation explores representations of university spaces in Jewish American fiction, and he has a great interest in liberal arts education and its role in identity formation. As a teacher, Danny is particularly invested in helping students more richly experience life through the experience of reading literature and watching films. He is, therefore, excited to join Emmanuel's English department. The college's mission to integrate faith and learning closely resembles Danny's own values in terms of higher education, which he see as a process of developing the whole person, intellectually, physically, and spiritually.
Danny says he is blessed to be a part of Emmanuel College at this exciting time in its history. The college's vision for itself and its students is inspiring and he is anxious to take part in that vision.
Danny lives in Comer with his wife, Kim, and their two daughters. They are all enjoying the experience of getting to know Northeast Georgia, and he looks forward to growing into his role in the Emmanuel community in the years to come!

Midwest Living Review
They've considered every detail to make your stay memorable at Lyons Twin Mansions, a bed-and-breakfast that's actually spread across two painted-lady homes in a leafy Fort Scott neighborhood. The surprisingly spacious rooms are lushly furnished with rich fabrics, brightly painted walls, and heavy wood furniture but also feature modern amenities like a DVD player to watch movies from the inn's film library. The owners warmly greet everyone who arrives, offering hugs to returning guests, which makes the enormous mansions immediately seem more intimate. Other amenities include a fitness center and a basement spa. Besides traditional rooms, the inn includes separate cottages for groups or extended-stay visitors. Breakfast is served at whatever time you want and often features the inn's signature granola, in addition to hot options such as baked eggs with cream cheese. Weekend stays start at $109.
