Believe it or not, there are plenty of properties in St. Louis City and County for sale that are selling for under $2000.00 a piece. Of course almost all of them need a rehab, an updating, or maybe just to be torn down. Some investors prefer to buy a $60,000 property and put $2,000 into it, but why not buy a $2000 property and put $60,000 into it. I would suggest that its possible for the second option, you may end up with a nicer property in better condition to last longer.
At Hermann London we are able to help you find these properties if they are listed on the MLS, but any Realtor can search the MLS. We also have experience actually purchasing these properties, and working through some of the different types of red tape you have to work through to get your results.
The truth is, there is another solution. You can purchase these properties directly from the City. Through the LRA or the St. Louis Development Corp. http://stlcin.missouri.org/forsale/ When someone doesnt pay their taxes for 4 years, the city will sell the property at a "tax sale" which is basically a property auction. Some of the houses dont sell. Those lonely properties work their way through the system and eventually end up on this government website. Dont worry, theres plenty of red tape with these properties too, and a whole new set of intracacies to understand. Luckily, the Hermann London group has agents in our office who are experienced with this type of property purchase too.
For any of your property purchase needs, no matter what type of investment strategy you choose to take, give us a call, we would love to talk about it. 314-210-5115.

Hello people, Iv been reading my mql4 course guide from coder's guru and i didnt understand the reasons for the different moving average calculations (EMA, SMA, SMMA, LWMA)

Total Medicaid spending, excluding administrative costs, likely reached $398.6 billion in fiscal 2011, which ended in June for most states. That was up 10.1 percent from the year before, when spending rose 6 percent, the National Association of State Budget Officers reported. Read article

RALEIGH, N.C. — Wildlife officers in North Carolina and Georgia say they have conducted an undercover operation that cracked down on poachers who were killing bears and other animals.
They say more than 80 people were involved in illegal activities that produced nearly 900 violations.
Officers began making arrests Tuesday.
The violations include illegal bear hunting and hunting on national forest lands without permits.
The four-year investigation targeted poachers in North Carolina and Georgia, with some work in neighboring states.
Officers with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources and the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission infiltrated poaching circles to document violations.
The law enforcement chief for North Carolina's wildlife commission, Col. Dale Caveny, says the arrests should bring an immediate halt to the crimes.

I understand that alot of people are having problems with there home phones, and all the problems seem to be the same!! I have looked and realised that this is all over the country and not in a specific area
So no need to ask if the problem im having is common with virgin!
What i do want to find out is if the outcome is also common, ( as in is the result always the same!)
By the looks of it it is always a lose connection in the exchange, fair enough this does happen (maybes not as often as this normaly but it does happen) But is it really a problem that should result in well over a week without service!!???
If people have had this problem (No dial tone on your home phone, and an engaged tone when people try to ring in) could you please let me know what the outcome was, what they said it was in the end and what needed to be done to solve the problem, and also how long you were without service
Hopefully we can eventualy get something sorted instead of just been chucked around from one call centre reject to the other,
oh i forgot to say after waiting over a month to get my phoneline turned on (not installed it was already there!!!) ive been with virgin since last month!! my service has been out now for 4 to 5 days, work that out over a year, its not looking good for me lol
Sorry for the long post but this has really pi**ed me off, needless to say im no good at txtn
01-03-2010 19:53 - edited 01-03-2010 19:57
A year last January I had a 2nd line put in. Over the next 9 months it was sheer hell. I took 106 calls for another person (who embarrassingly I did know!). God knows now many calls I missed. I was told all lines are out of circ for at least 6 months before re-issue. Now, this phone was subscribed to by someone else whose bank, building society, wife's doctor and even son called me. Not to mention numerous calls from debt collection/ advisory agencies who refused to believe I was not the person they were seeking. I had it taken out. I learned (from an engineer) this line had NEVER been withdrawn and remained this persons all the time. He had not missed it because he had moved into a caravan. Where does this leave VM with regard to DPA? Yes all my bills were refunded, AND during this time even my original line faulted if the other was not enough of a problem. However since removal obliviously I have had no issues with it nor has my original line faulted since, due then I was told by a cable being disconnected in the dist box. The other fault if that is what one can call it, was, I had been connected in error to that other persons line. That erroneous line still rings out and always has since it was removed.
I have covered this in past threads but never had anyone from VM return to me about this. I wonder why?

i have had a problem with my phone since sunday...it is an intermittent fault and is driving me nuts...every time i phoned virgin from my neighbours phone i was told there is a fault in my area and its being dealt with...i phoned again yesterday morning as it was still playing up and it was arranged for an engineer to call out...yesterday afternoon i had a call from virgin and was told the fault had been rectified and the engineer had been cancelled....15 mins later i went to use my phone and it wasnt working so round again to my neighbours to phone virgin and an engineer was booked for this afternoon...he turned up and said he had found the fault it was in a box round the corner and its been repaired and he then checked my phone line and said it was ok....about 30mins after he left i went to use my phone and again its not working!!!!! so back round neighbours... i called virgin and told them i have had enough and they said they would get back onto the engineer and get him to call back out and if i dont hear anything within two hours (theres 30mins left) im to phone virgin back up and they will chase it up...i have been with virgin (ntl) for years and the service now is **bleep**...i am seriously contemplating going back to bt ...
on 03-03-2010 17:03
i have just phoned virgin as i hadnt heard from the engineer and was told that no one will be calling out today and they have to rebook another appointment....i now have to wait till friday afternoon for an engineer to call to repair the fault which they said had been repaired earlier today...i have just emailed a complaint form to virgin telling them their service is appalling as i am a pensioner i live alone and i need a phone!!!!
03-03-2010 20:07 - edited 03-03-2010 20:13
Dollie. You don't need a phone - like that! Appalling.
This sounds like the usual problem, inferior connections in the box. They are in an apalling state through lack of investement and attention. Damp and corrosion is wreaking havoc. Not my words, a VM engineers to myself.
My advice, get a mobile. Far more reliable so long as it's not a Virgin one of course.
on 05-03-2010 15:49
the guy turned up from virgin media today and said the fault was with the main box he will go and sort it..about 10mins later he phoned me and said he had fixed the problem....and i said thats what the other guy said on wednesday..he then went onto say that it looked like nothing had been done to the box!!! to rectify my fault on the line...at least now my phone line is working i now await a reply from virgin re my complaint for the appalling service..
on 07-03-2010 13:36
Don't hold your breath.
on 15-03-2010 11:12
well its a good job i didnt hold my breath as i would be dead by now!!! i phoned virginmedia this morning as i hadnt had a reply to my complaint re my loss of telephone usage....and was told that they would refund me £5 off my next bill...i said thats not acceptable as i had to keep going round to use my neighbours phone...she then said she would increase it to £10....a good result but really **bleep** service from virgin...i see the prices are going up in april to...mmmmm wonder if we will get a better service ....hahahaha!!!!!

Tigers pitcher Jose Alvarez was impressive in his major-league debut Sunday at Comerica Park. / Julian H. Gonzalez/DFP
There was no name on Jose Alvarezs cubicle in the further recesses of the Tigers clubhouse, only his number 52. And that could have been written in pencil.
He knew he wasnt here long.
They told me before the game that I was going back to Toledo after, Alvarez said. I was happy with that. I liked having the chance to come up here, even if it was just one day.
For one day, the young man was pretty impressive answering the emergency call in his major league debut.
Alvarez started in place of Anibal Sanchez, whom the Tigers scratched after he complained of stiffness in his pitching shoulder. Alvarez got his first major league victory and the subsequent beer-and-water shower from celebratory teammates afterward.
Youre happy for him. Not many get their first victory in their first major league start. The last Tiger was Alfredo Figaro four years ago.
And nobodys heard much from Figaro since. So what does that tell you about the baseball barometric accuracy for foretelling the future from a career first start?
The significance of Alvarezs effort isnt that the Tigers might have discovered something special in this discarded minor league free agent that could open other roster options down the road. Its that he successfully, if only momentarily, filled a suddenly created void.
Adversity is unavoidable in a 162-game season. Its the inevitable championship teams that ably navigate those rocky waves.
The most annoying complaint about this team is why they arent up at least 10 games in the underwhelming American League Central?
Why does it have to be easy to be worthwhile?
When are championships ever easy?
The Pittsburgh Penguins and Chicago Blackhawks had it easy during their respective truncated NHL regular seasons, running away from the competition, clinching top seeds while barely breaking a sweat.
The Penguins are on the driving range now, freshly swept out of the Eastern Conference finals. The Blackhawks barely survived a 3-1 series deficit to the Red Wings in the second round. And now, having experienced and battled through such hardship, the Blackhawks appear even stronger.
Austin Jackson has been gone for a month. The Tigers have gotten enough from juggling Don Kelly and Avisail Garcia to keep the offense from fully collapsing in Jacksons absence.
Kellys three-run home run provided the winning margin against Cleveland on Sunday, giving the Tigers a three-game sweep and a 5½-game lead over the second-place Tribe.
It makes you realize what a long, tough stretch 162 is, and youre going to go through some tough things, Kelly said. But thats what you want. You want the battle. You could say that you probably need that reminder that its a daily grind and that its important finding ways to fight through each day.
For one day, Alvarez was up to the fight. The Tigers hope this was the only day they needed him, confident that Sanchez will miss only one start. And with the day off this week after the three-game Kansas City series, manager Jim Leyland possibly could skip Sanchezs next scheduled start if necessary.
Leyland admitted to worries after Alvarez gave up a solo home run to Ryan Raburn and threw three straight balls to the next batter. But instead of suffering strike fright, as Leyland called it, the rookie regained his composure.
Alvarez escaped a little jam in the sixth inning. He got a much deserved standing ovation from the crowd. Leyland applauded strongly himself, standing on the top step of the dugout.
Alvarez got a handshake from the skipper ... and a hug.
He told me, Good game, kid, Alvarez said.
It was a good game for the kid, making the trip back down I-75 a little more enjoyable.

Rockstar has announced that the Max Payne 3 Official Soundtrack will be available for digital download on May 23rd. Composed and recorded by LA-based band HEALTH, the soundtrack features the song "TEARS" which is due for release as a single on iTunes on May 15th, coinciding with the game's console launch.
The Max Payne 3 soundtrack will also feature a new and exclusive track from São-Paulo-based Brazilian hip-hop artist, Emicida while DJ mixes heard during Max Payne 3's Nightclub chapter were compiled and mixed by Brooklyn based DJ collective Trouble & Bass, and will be available free as a digital download following the game's release.
Here's an official description:
HEALTH's unique blend of rock, powerful drums and electronic soundscapes lends itself perfectly to the score for the game. Taking influences from Brazil, Max's native New York and the themes of the original games, HEALTH have put together a fantastic soundtrack that perfectly embodies the tone and the atmosphere of Max Payne 3. Distinctive arrangements unique to each level accompany Max on his journey through the game's locations, perfectly framing the game's epic action sequences and the dark and gritty story.
"Working on the soundtrack to Max Payne 3 was a great experience," said John Famiglietti of HEALTH. "Rockstar gave us the freedom to bring our own sound to Max's dark story, and we're really proud of the results."
"By using a band instead of a traditional composer, we've created a soundtrack that sounds completely unique," said Ivan Pavlovich, Rockstar soundtrack supervisor. "HEALTH have created hundreds of hours of amazing music for the game's score, and distilled it into a devastatingly moody and atmospheric soundtrack album."
Also, if you're TOTALLY stoked for the game's release, I highly advise that you tune in tonight to SPIKE and check out our GT.TV Presents special on the game, a preview of which can be seen right here.

Comments about Vic Firth Russ Miller Hi-Def Signature Sticks:
I absolutely loved this stick and it does exactly what it was meant for. most would reccomend it for jazz;however, i used it for jazz, rock, metal, prog rock, and anything you can think of. its a wonderful stick and it does make your drums sound like they are played in HD. the HD oval is great for identifying the sweet spot for cross sticking. My only issue is yjr tips wear down very fast, like in one sitting and they become mini barrells instead of half acorns. This actually takes alot away from the HD effect. the tips also chip alot. they still fell great and sound great but not the same. I would recommend it for sure!
Comments about Vic Firth Russ Miller Hi-Def Signature Sticks:
Amazing sticks! I love them, but they have one downside... I've already broken a brand new pair in one siting. Yeah, i was using them for harding hitting then intentioned... but they feel amazing in my hands and they allow my to play pretty fast doing not much work to do so. Buy them, but buy them in bulk.

Review: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680
Mar 22
// Ryan Perez
[embed]224337:43139[/embed] NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680Manufacturer: NVIDIARelease: March 22, 2012MSRP: $499 Important GeForce GTX 680 specs: CUDA Cores: 1,536 (Three times more than the 580) Base Clock: 1006 MHz Boost Clock: 1058 MHz Memory Clock: 6008 MHz Interface: 256-bit Total Memory: 2048MB GDDR5 Total Memory Bandwidth: 192.26 GB/s Texture Filtering Rate (Bilinear): 128.8 Giga Texels/sec Connectors: 2 x Dual-Link DVI, 1 x HDMI, 1 x DisplayPort Recommended Power Supply: 550 Watts Thermal Design Power: 195 Watts (244 Watts for 580) Power Connectors: 2 x 6-pin (One 6-pin and one 8-pin for 580) My general PC specs: Windows 7 x64 (cards are already compatible with Windows 8) Intel i7 2.80 GHz 8GB DDR3 SDRAM I'm just going to get straight to what most of you want to know: How it handles games. The reason I posted my rig's not-so-uber specs above is actually a way of pointing out that my 680 has been taking a lot of the stress with all of the graphically heavy games I've thrown at it. It's all for the card. Believe me, I would have gladly neglect mentioning my specs, as mentioning your lackluster PC to techies is like showing your four-incher to a porn star. The first game I tested -- and the most obvious -- was Battlefield 3. An important note about its Frostbite 2 engine is that it's very efficiently built to run on an adequately powered rig. My old 560 Ti (always overclocked) could handle ultra settings at around 40 to 50 FPS, minus VSync or anti-aliasing. So it's obvious that a 680 would make short work of this game's demands. However, even on powerful rigs, framerate drops are common during heated battles with an abundance of particle effects (smoke and explosions) and game models crowding the screen. To test this out the best I could, I played through several "Conquest Large" matches on BF3's biggest maps available, all on completely maxed-out settings. Even when a team had only one point captured, and the player focus was centered on that entire area, I didn't witness a single drop in smoothness. I mean I literally kept my eyes on the framrate as the sh*t was hitting the fan, and noticed no fluctuation at all. I then tested the 680 on an engine that isn't very efficiently built. The Witcher 2's RED Engine has turned quite a few heads due to its looks, though it's no secret that maxed-out settings require an overall top-end PC. More specifically, the "Uber Sampling" feature is typically what kills the game's performance, as it renders each scene several times over to provide a smoother image quality. Most people turn this feature off, as the slight visual improvement doesn't justify the hardware demands. On my 560 Ti, you could swear I was playing some game I received from ten years into the future; a whopping 15 FPS was the best I got out of it. With the 680, though, it ran at a very stable 40 to 50 FPS, with almost no drops below that 40 (even during combat). Mainly due to the RED Engine's cumbersome features, The Witcher 2 was one of the most technically demanding games I could test on it. A close equal was Crysis 2 with its DX11 upgrades, which ran surprisingly better than Witcher. Out of all the games I tested on the 680 (others include Skyrim, Rage and Just Cause 2), the most rewarding was undoubtedly Crysis 2. The Frostbite 2 engine looks beautiful because of it versatility, but the CryEngine 3 looks incredible because of its cutting-edge features, and the 680 handles them all brilliantly. Displacement maps, high-quality HDR, real-time reflections, and particle motion blur all look absolutely fantastic. My 560 Ti could barely handle Crysis 2 on max settings at around 30 FPS. My 680 laughs at it, with a strong 60 FPS, only dropping to near 50 during moments of extreme action (lots of explosions and particle effects). After all of this, I can't say I'm surprised that the 680 performed the way it did. Many people may remember the Unreal Engine 3 Samaritan Demo from last year's GDC. Well, that demo, mind-bogglingly beautiful as it was, originally required three GTX 580s and a power supply the size of a small child. When I was first presented the 680 at NVIDIA's Editor's Day event during GDC 2012, the same tech demo was shown ... running on a single 680 and nothing else. NVIDIA wants this card to really mean something to the gaming community, not only by being ultra powerful and providing us with longevity, but also via the cutting-edge features that are idiosyncratic to NVIDIA cards alone. A lot of you might have been wondering how I got such close framerate fluctuation with VSync presumably on (it was). Without getting too technical, a big issue people have with VSync is that it forces the framerate to drop by positive integers, based on your monitor's refresh rate (i.e. a 60Hz monitor dropping by 60FPS, 30, 20, 15, etc.) all for the sake of preventing "screen tearing." We gamers can see the obvious problem with this, as the drastic drop in framerate results in "jittering." To combat this, NVIDIA has developed what's known as "Adaptive VSync," which automatically turns off global VSync whenever the framerate needs to fall to anything below your monitor's max refresh rate. No more jitter and no more screen tearing. As another means of providing a smoother gaming experience, NIVIDA is aspiring to do away with MSAA (Multisample anti-aliasing) by providing their own FXAA, which can be activated within the card alone and be applied to any game. They're also providing the upcoming TXAA, a new film-style AA that is at least 4X more effective than MSAA. The result is a welcome addition, as we've been long overdue for an upgrade in this area. Another great feature that we're all becoming acquainted with is PhysX, NVIDIA's proprietary physics engine. PhysX has been steadily appearing in a lot of high-quality titles, providing great rigid and soft body dynamics, as well as fluid and cloth simulations. At NVIDIA's Editor's Day, Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford showed off Borderlands 2 and how it implemented PhysX. Fluids pooled and flowed in complete real-time, and even reacted to explosions -- splashing about into numerous smaller puddles. Cloth materials reacted accordingly to foreign objects, and could even be torn and shredded when fired at. It was quite incredible how these effects could be handled with such relative ease in real-time, when just five years ago it took me several hours to render them for 3D animations on a high-end PC. The last upgrade I'm going to mention is, in a lot of ways, more of a downgrade, but sold me on the card merely due to my living situation. As stated before, the 680 is a very efficient card, and that applies more than anything to its power consumption. The 680 is so streamlined that it actually draws less power than its predecessor, the 580 (see the specs above). What does this mean for me? Well, as a city that desperately tries to retain some sort of bullsh*t identity, San Francisco is adamant about holding on to their Victorian architecture of the 1920s. This includes the f*cked up power distribution systems that came with them. With that said, I can only have about two appliances on at any one time, before I cause a power surge and my place goes completely dark. When it comes to PC gaming, this presents a problem. I actually used to SLI two 560s, but had to get rid of one if I wanted to game with my heater on -- enduring cold San Francisco nights is definitely not worth an extra 560 Ti. So you can imagine that a card like the 680 fairs well for someone with my situation, if not also for people who dig the environment or like saving money on bills. Not only does it consume less power than the best of last generation, but its TDP is only 25 more than my freakin' 560 Ti. After seeing the Samaritan demo and what it took to run it last year, I don't know how they accomplished what they have with the 680. It's like someone sold their ass to the Devil to make this thing. To really explain every notable change and addition with the GeForce GTX 680 would take so much more time. This new line of graphics cards is leaps and bounds beyond the 500 series. This review alone is obviously not going to convince you to throw down $499 on a new card, but I do hope it drives you to do a little more digging into the fine details of the 680 ... especially if you plan on upgrading. PC gaming is slowly but surely making a comeback, and the GeForce 680 is the card to welcome it with open arms. Several games are in development right now with this very card in mind (others shown at the NVIDIA event were Max Payne 3 and The Secret World). If you yearn for the time when you filled your PC with the best of the best tech in preparation for the hottest-looking games to come, then the time is certain now, and the tech is certainly this card. Oh, and before I go, all of you hardcore NVIDIA fans are probably going to want to watch this: [embed]224337:43138[/embed]

Not-Review: RAGE on PC is appalling
Oct 05
// Jim Sterling
RAGE (PC version)Developer: id SoftwarePublisher: BethesdaMSRP: $59.99Released: October 4, 2011Tested On: Intel i7-2600k @3.40 GHz, with 8GB of RAM, GeForce GTX 580 GPU (SLI) Things start off poorly with a menu screen that has random black lines flickering across it. Sometimes they're there when the game boots, sometimes they're not. I wouldn't be able to play with the in-game settings to see if something can be fixed, however, because the in-game menus are pathetic. The only graphical tweaks available within RAGE are screen resolutions and anti-aliasing settings. id Software didn't feel the need to provide anything else. Right from the very outset, RAGE looks like garbage. The first cutscene is so poorly compressed, it could have been an opening FMV for Dungeon Keeper back in the nineties, and the in-game graphics don't fair much better. Any dark spaces are clouded with artifacts, as if the shadows were actually low quality jpegs. [Pictured: A dark corner, looking like it was drawn in MS Paint] I can confirm one of the most common complaints -- textures pop in a split-second before you view anything, leading to a distracting environment in which everything appears to twitch. Turning around at any point in the game causes the visuals to "re-focus" which puts the player off completely. Speaking of being put off, the screen-tearing is beyond obscene. Whenever you turn around, you have to deal with obnoxious lines all over the screen and textures shunting themselves in before your very eyes. The framerate, especially on vehicles, is abysmal as well. This is all after I did as Bethesda recommended and installed the very latest NVIDIA drivers. I noticed a slight framerate increase on-foot, but no improvements anywhere else. Screen still tore, textures still popped in, and the vehicle sections look like they're being watched through a zoetrope. [Pictured: A corridor I was able to screengrab a moment before the textured popped in] Oh, and you'll want to alter the keyboard controls for vehicles. Someone figured they should control exactly the same as the first-person perspective, which means that you're expected to hit Shift to boost -- which means you'll be taking your finger off "A" and thus can't turn left without enjoying some finger gymnastics (Edit: Or you can be like the FREAKS in the comments who use their pinkies, I guess. How uncomfortable). Another weird control issue is the fact that the cursor sensitivity ramps up considerably during any in-game menu. Be it the options screen, the mission acceptance screen, or the inventory, the mouse suddenly goes at more than twice the speed, which is incredibly jarring and forces the player's brain and hands to recalibrate every time they go from gameplay to menu browsing. I just have no idea how something so stupid could be allowed to happen, other than to surmise that nobody cared, and nobody tested anything. [Pictured: Some pre-texture scenery. Character models don't seem so badly affected] All these issues were apparent within the first fifteen minutes of play, leading me to conclude that RAGE is by far among the very worst ports I have seen on any system, from any company, during any year. While the game is good on consoles, and a recommended purchase, I'd say that anybody looking to get it on PC steer well clear, at least until a laundry list of tweaks and the obligatory first five patches have arrived. Right now, there are all sorts of conflicting reports on how to make RAGE run better on PC, but most users will be tearing their hair out and lamenting their wasted cash if they download this and expect to get a good product for their $60.00. Yes, $60.00. It's ten dollars more expensive than PC games should be, and it's still one of the worst PC versions of any game currently available. That such things are legal truly blows my mind.
RAGE's release has been dominated by reports of the game running poorly on PC. Unfortunately, a PC version wasn't provided before we were able to run our review, but I've gotten my hands on a copy via Steam and played through the first mission to see how it stacks up compared to the Xbox 360 version. I am beginning to count myself lucky that I didn't have to fully play it for the review.

Review: RAGE
Oct 04
// Jim Sterling
RAGE (PC, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 [reviewed])Developer: id SoftwarePublisher: Bethesda SoftworksReleased: October 4, 2011MSRP: $59.99 It would be very difficult to discuss RAGE without mentioning both Fallout and Borderlands -- comparisons that are easily justifiable since id Software has merrily stolen from both. Set in a post-apocalyptic world where cryogenically frozen people emerge from "Arks" to find a wasteland ruled by bandits and mutants, everything about RAGE feels familiar. Borderlands' visual style -- including bold, cartoon-esque outlines -- and Fallout's general premise are blended with a BioShock-inspired loot system to create a game that looks and feels like something we've seen a bit too much of in recent years. The game looks dated, which is strange, considering it is one of the most graphically gorgeous games on the market. While its art style feels passé, the technology bringing it to life definitely does not. Of particular note are the animations, which are easily the most lively I've seen. Enemies movements' are especially stunning, and I was most impressed by just how varied their behavior can be. Even the simple mutant has a wide range of actions -- they'll roll to avoid fire, grab onto the ceiling, hold themselves elevated in doorways like spiders, and leap to close large distances. Different tribes of bandits have unique behaviors to boot, with Ghost clan members charging wildly and running along walls, or the more pragmatic Shrouded retreating when taking heavy fire and covering each others' escape. RAGE splits itself into first-person combat and third-person vehicular sections. Taking a rather formulaic structure, general progress consists of heading into town, taking on a mission, driving to a "dungeon" area and killing a lot of things. This pattern repeats itself from beginning to end, in a world that looks quite open but tends to be shockingly small and restricted. There are huge chasms, open mountains and wide fields, but the they are inaccessible and exist only as window dressing. There's a linearity to the game that seems at odds with the world's open appearance. This is a problem that's only compounded when you realize how devoid of exploration that world truly is -- there is one small city area for each half of the game, and the dungeon locations sit at the ends of a meager selection of straightforward paths. One wonders why the illusion of an open world was put in place -- I'm all for linear experiences, but not when they're pretending to be something they're not, and offering the vision of something far larger than it is. Getting from A to B is a pleasant affair, as vehicles are easy to handle with tight, precise controls. Players can take part in races within each city, earning tokens that can be spent on upgrades such as increased boost power and extra weaponry. These upgrades will be essential as the Wasteland becomes increasingly populated with enemy vehicles that spew bullets and rockets with deadly precision. Collecting and upgrading vehicles is a cool part of RAGE, but the overall selection of machines and corresponding enhancements isn't quite deep enough to remain compelling for long. The combat sections will feel a bit more familiar to id fans, especially those who enjoyed the atmospheric DOOM 3. Like the horror-shooter sequel, RAGE's combat is all about setting up a series of corridors, broken up by rooms full of enemies. Opponents are remarkably aggressive, and rather difficult to hit thanks to their love of rushing, ducking, weaving and taking cover (not to mention the fact that aim assist is either terrible or non-existent on consoles.) There's a nice variety of weapons, ranging from the humble pistol and assault rifle to more delicious arms, such as a crossbow that can fire mind-controlling darts. Each weapon has multiple ammo types, and can extra attachments can be purchased at stores in town. If you die, you have the ability to get back up by taking part in a small QTE-like minigame. However, this "defib" option needs to recharge, so players can't just resurrect indefinitely. Aside from the fact that erratic enemies are frustratingly difficult to hit, RAGE brings the action in a big way. Combat sequences are fast-paced and intense with enemies that range from savagely aggressive to prudently tactical. As the game progresses, more vicious factions are encountered, each with their own unique weapons, strategies and environments, from the feral Jackal clan to the high-tech, militant Authority. There's a real sense of life in each fight, with opponents communicating to each other about their battle status and commenting on the player's movements. Sometimes the smoke and mirrors of this combat dialog is exposed when enemies that can't see you are still telling their friends what you've done, but the illusion of smart, observant opposition is generally maintained to an effective degree. Helping out in combat is a range of gadgets that can be built using debris from the environment and corresponding schematics. These range from the invaluable Wingstick -- a deadly bladed boomerang -- to remote-controlled bomb cars, sentry turrets, and spider-like robots that act as autonomous allies. Due to the huge, cluttered menu system, it can be difficult to find or even remember the gadgets on offer, but they're all incredibly useful once you recall they exist. Speaking of the menu system, it could definitely have used some work. Unnecessary visual effects upon switching tabs makes menu navigation feel laggy and inconvenient, and items are thrown together with monochrome images representing each one. With only four weapons and four gadgets able to be stored in a quick-select slot, the menu is needed often, and it's a pain to use. RAGE throws a few extra distractions into the mix, just to spice things up. As noted, each city has a collection of vehicle races, and there's also a job board with intermittent sub-quests. There are also minigames, such as a board game in which you "roll" dice to shoot mutants before they kill your avatar, a finger-puncturing knife trick challenge, and a battling card game called RAGE Frenzy. The card game is my personal favorite, using collector cards found in the game world to battle AI opponents in a simple but satisfying game of chance. I'd have loved for RAGE Frenzy to be expanded, as the random element of collecting has been killed off in favor of predetermined cards hidden in predetermined locations, and there are only two people in the entire game who play. The problem with RAGE Frenzy, however, is the ultimate problem of RAGE as a whole -- it's full of great ideas and it's truly fun to play, but every single idea fails to reach its potential. It would be unfair to call such a polished and enjoyable game unfinished, but the fact that every included element needed further expansion at least suggests an experience that must be deemed incomplete. There are weapon upgrades, but only a mere handful of them. You can enhance your vehicles, but there's a tiny range of auto parts on offer. You can equip new armor ... only once during the whole game. There are gadgets to be built, but no depth to the crafting system. There's the tease of an open world, but it's not open at all. There are hints of role-playing elements, but no attainable new skills or statistics. There's a collectible card game without the fun of collecting and only two people to play it with. There are shops, but you can buy all the new schematics and armor upgrades on your first visit and only need to return for ammo or crafting ingredients. There are cities but only two of them, featuring the same minigames, and they're small. RAGE is a game that promises many things but delivers only a fraction of each. A vastly entertaining fraction, I have to add, but it leaves one aching for more, and imagining what could have been if the experience weren't cut so coldly short. This is a feeling carried through into the multiplayer, which is amusing but shallow. RAGE's competitive online mode is cribbed from the various vehicular combat sections in the campaign, and feels like a mixture of Twisted Metal and Mario Kart. However, each game can only contain four players on maps that are far too large for such a small number. As a result, matches feel constrained and often consist of three players shooting the rear of whoever is in front, then another swapping its place. At the time of writing, matchmaking doesn't seem to work, either. Bethesda had scheduled matches for reviewers, but nobody was able to find them. There are multiple reviewers still trying to get into a game, but RAGE so far doesn't even attempt to find lobbies, forcing each player to start their own instead. I eventually got to try it by starting a private match and inviting someone else in. There's a co-op mode that revisits locations from the campaign and gives two players a series of objectives to complete against quite challenging odds. These "Legend" stages have a scoring system in place for some passive competition, and attempt to breathe extra life into RAGE's narrative by theming every stage around a backstory. Ultimately, however, these short little levels feel shallow and the scoring system encourages a more frantic style of play that contradicts the need for players to take their time and work together. All told, the multiplayer simply isn't worth putting that third 360 disc into the machine, and it would have been far better for id Software to remove it completely and work on a fully-fleshed-out solo mode. For the ten or so hours that it lasts, RAGE has a lot of honest, straightforward, amusing action on offer. However, one can't help but feel that this is little more than a prologue, something id Software put together in order to show the potential of a franchise, rather than realize the potential of a game. As you rush around the world and get brief introductions with major characters, it seems like you're on a quick sightseeing tour of RAGE's universe rather than setting up camp for an extended stay. Everything RAGE does, it does well, but it just doesn't do anything to a conclusive degree. This is hammered home by the rushed ending with an absolutely classless cliffhanger. RAGE is fast food, the kind of fast food that looks much more satisfying on the menu than it does once served. It's tasty, for sure, but you'll be starving almost as soon as you've finished. By no means is RAGE not worth your time -- it looks stunning, the combat on both wheels and foot is fun, and there's a tremendous sense of atmosphere that deserves to be experienced. However, RAGE's quality only makes its lack of ambition more painful in the long run, as it could easily have been better than it is. It's a good game, most definitely, and one that id fans will enjoy ... just don't expect it to do half of what it looks like it can do.
It's been quite some time since id Software released a brand-new hatchling into the world. DOOM and Quake have kept it relevant through the years, but there's a new four-letter name on the cards, and that name is RAGE. ...

College returns to Oconee County
A full year of college is returning to Oconee County after an absence of more than 65 years.
Beginning in the fall, Tri-County Technical College will offer all its freshmen courses at the Fred P. Hamilton Career Center on S.C. 188. (Keowee School Road.)
"Tri-County will have an Oconee County campus," said Valerie Truesdale, superintendent of Oconee County schools. "That's very exciting."
Not since the Seneca Institute added two years of study beyond high school in 1930 and was renamed Seneca Junior College has Oconee County had a full college presence. Economic conditions forced the school to close in 1939.
The Seneca Institute opened in 1899 as a three-room school dedicated to secondary education for black students. A historical marker was placed last year at the site of the school, which is now the Seneca River Association Family Life Institute on South Poplar Street.
Ronnie Booth, president of Tri-County Tech, recently pointed to the college's partnership with the Oconee school district and Oconee Memorial Hospital as the college's growing presence in the county.
Almost 1,000 Oconee County residents attend Tri-County Technical College. A new addition to the Licensed Practical Nurse and Allied Health programs building at the Hamilton Career Center will allow high school students to begin their healthcare careers as early as 10th grade and continue through Tri-County's program at the new facility. The new building addition will have two classrooms, and an anatomy and physiology laboratory for about 24 students.
Tri-County has an enrollment of about 4,750 students, mainly from Anderson, Oconee and Pickens counties. In March, the college opened an Anderson campus; Mr. Booth said it's also looking at a site near Easley for a Pickens County branch.

Andy Kaufman and Randall Poffo wrestling
By Andy Whorehall in Video on Saturday 11 August 2012
The little TV I watched as a child typically occurred in other peoples' homes on Friday nights, Saturday afternoons, and Sunday mornings. My grandfather loved putting on the wrestling matches in the late 70s to early 80s to nap to on Saturday afternoons after a morning of yard work. He loved catching Randall Poffo, aka Randy Macho Man Savage, wrestle in his younger years, often stating: 'Oh, his old man was a good wrestler right there'. Later on, in the 80s, he'd let me stay up with him and watch the Saturday Night Main Event during the hey day of the WWF, waiting for Randy Poffo.

Content from Wikipedia.
Daykundi (Pashto: دايکندي ولايت; Persian: دایکندی), sometimes spelled as Daikundi, Dāykondī, Daikondi or Daykundi, is one of the thirty-four provinces of Afghanistan, with its capital being Nili. It is located in central Afghanistan, about 310 kilometres from Kabul, and falls into the traditionally ethnic Hazara region known as the Hazarajat. The population of the province is 431,300, according to Afghan census, which is dominated by ethnic Hazaras although there are some other groups such as Pashtun and Baloch.[3]
Daykundi was established on March 28, 2004, when it was created from the isolated Hazara-dominated northern districts of neighboring Oruzgan province. Until 2006, Gizab was the only district in Daykundi province with a majority Pashtun population, but in May 2006 the government of Afghanistan took Gizab from Daykundi and re-annexed it with Oruzgan province to the south (though this is not reflected in the maps on this page).

Applying GCP in a real life situation is often subjective, requires experience and training. A Clinical Trial, like any other project is divided in stages with tasks running in parallel or in sequence and affecting one another in a cause and effect relationship. Over the years, findings of inspectors and experiences of monitors have identified clusters of deficiencies in complying with GCP principles, key areas that emanate straight from the GCP guidelines.
This presentation will shed light on what one needs to pay attention to, in order to run a clinical trial in a GCP compliant manner, securing both results and quality. By defining the key parameters and providing lists of common deficiencies, an understanding of how to progress through each stage of a project and what to watch out for will be gained. As a result, working knowledge of GCP will increase.
Areas Covered in the Seminar:
- Importance of Good Clinical Practice.
- Key areas of deficiencies in Clinical trials.
- Common findings in audits and inspections.
- Definition of ranking of findings: minor-major-
- Definition of Adverse and Serious adverse events.
- ICH guidelines on the Informed consent process.
- Management of investigational drug.
- Investigator site file and essential documents.
- Source data.

Merry Christmas baby, you sure did treat me nice
Merry Christmas baby, sure did treat me nice
Gave me a diamond ring for Christmas
Now I'm living in paradise
Well I'm feeling mighty fine
Got good music on my radio
Well I'm feeling mighty fine
Got good music on my radio
Well I want to kiss you baby
While you're standing beneath the mistletoe
Saint Nick came down chimney, about a half past three
Left all these pretty presents that you see before me
Merry Christmas pretty baby, you sure been good to me
Well I haven't had a drink this morning, but I'm all lit up like a Christmas
MERRY CHRISTMAS BABY is an R&B Christmas standard written by Lou Baxter and
Johnny Moore and originally recorded by Johnny Moore's Three Blazers who released it as a single
in November 1947 on the Exclusive label, with catalogue # EXC-1145 and LOST IN THE NIGHT on the
B-side. Their recording was the hottest blues attractions on the West Coast and reached position
#3 on Billboard's R & B Juke Box chart during the Christmas of 1947.
The Christmas song was covered by many recording artists including Bruce
Springsteen & The E Street Band whose live version from a 1980 concert at Nassau Coliseum in
Uniondale, NY, was officially released in 1986; see the
live 31 Dec 1980 version for more details. That version is
perhaps the most notable cover of the song.
Much of the info about the original version of MERRY CHRISTMAS BABY is taken
from Wikipedia. Thanks Jake

Kayleigh Potts flys high for a kill against Union last week. This Tuesday against Wasatch, the lady Dinos struggled to get their offense going and came up on the losing side for the first time in region action this season.
Coach Bob Potts reminded his girls right after the win Thursday night over Union that they had their toughest game so far this season coming up next. He was very right and Carbon came up on the short end as Wasatch beat the Dinos in four sets 25-19, 11-25, 25-21 and 26-24.
"We had our worst start ever in the first set." he said after the meet, "It was really hard to watch and I ended up substituting early. Then we just crushed them in the second match and I thought we were back on track. But it was a dog fight after that and it became about who wanted it more and we fell short. We are still in first place and nothing's broken so we have a week to prepare for the second half of region play and we will be ready."
Carbon had a shot at a win in both set three and set four. In set four they were up 23-21 with the ball when Wasatch used their final time out. The Lady Dinos were only able to get one more point after that.
Amanda Freestone ended the match with 11 kills. Sara Potts added nine as well as three service aces. Alexis Oliver dished up 27 assists and Kacylia Ivory had 31 digs.

To increase penalties for human trafficking, Gov. Bill Richardson signed Senate Bill 71 Friday. The governor called the bill one of the most important pieces of criminal legislation in 2008's 30-day session."Human trafficking must be outlawed – human beings should not be treated as property and detained against their will," Richardson said in a news release.Senate Bill 71 elevates engaging in human trafficking to a felony offense. The bill makes it a third-degree felony to traffic a person 16 or older, a second-degree felony if the victim is 13-15 years old and a first-degree felony if the victim is 12 years old or younger. Along with establishing penalties, a task force will be created to research and combat human trafficking in New Mexico, Richardson said.Los Alamos Police Det. DeWayne Williams, who has been with the department for 13 years, said he is not aware of human trafficking taking place in Los Alamos County. "The smuggling takes place at the border and once illegal aliens get inland a ways, they get into cars and just drive up to Los Alamos," Williams said.In other parts of the state, Williams said he has no doubt human trafficking goes on. "It's a very lucrative business," he said. "I think it's great Gov.

They are made for people who change their mind quickly, from desk to trail and back for dinner in the same pair of pants. Toad&Co focused their energies on being an environmentally aware and makes clothes to fit the active person. Comfortable, easy to take care of, and sewn to perfection out of sustainable fabrics, like organic cotton and tencel. Take a look through Rock/Creek's broad collection of Toad&Co clothes and accessories. Look out for flattering skirts, like Toad&Co's Chachacha skirt, and comfortable polo shirts as the Onrush Polo.

Has anyone ever spoken to the bloke who did the Egyptian Slaughter map? I want to know what mad genius possessed him while he built that insane level.

Rex Claussen has been posting interviews with current mappers at his website, The Doom Nexus. Granted, his focus has been on the ZDoom community.
