The North Sea
Grandeur & Weakness [LP; Rubber City Noise]
By Grant 'Gumshoe' Purdum on Apr 9 2013
Grandeur & Weakness is apparently the final North Sea voyage, and what a long, strange trip it's been; or at least I imagine so. As seems to happen all the time, this act was right under my nose for years and I never so much as sniffed. Now I'm trying to snuff up all I can before it's closing time and it's a little overwhelming. Back to Grandeur: Not to cliche-fuck you, but what an appropriate album title. Brad Rose (nee North Sea) strings together a slew of aural victories that all stand apart. "Empty, Fragile Shell" had me thinking of that Riceboy Sleeps album (aka spiritual drone) while, say, "Vagrant" and "Violence Is a Cleansing Force" ring of Panicsville holding up a WZT Hearts track in Starving Weirdos' backyard. There seem to be a lot of lazers in today's experimental records, and this one is no exception. I embrace that, along with the more extreme elements at play here, fully. It's rare to hear a dronoise album that doesn't beg for anything. Nothing is left off the table; the tectonic plates shift fairly regularly, but you'll never lose footing if this crazy brand of music has had any impact on your life. Records like Grandeur keep our little pumpkin patch in the sun alive, teeming with fresh energy and wild, zesty ideas. No reason to quit now, far as I can hear. Three-hundred copies and you don't know what hit you.Links: The North Sea - Rubber City Noise
JD Emmanuel / Evan Caminiti
Contrasts [CS; Preservation]
By Jspicer on Apr 9 2013
Calgon Emmanuel, take me away! The A-side to this latest Contrasts pairing is amazing. And then it drops! But it returns lusher than ever. I am in its grasp, the sudsy bath enveloping my senses as I let my body go limp into the fade out…but I open my eyes to a new world, one underwater with magical creatures singing to me in docile tones. A full-body feast as I dive deeper into my Cousteau fantasy, only to come to find the Mariana Trench is a portal to the Earth behind the sun, outer space lovely this time of year. But Earth 2 is not the magical world I was expecting, Evan Caminiti's dismal splash of acid rain on a world in ruin waking me from my Magellan cruise. As I desperately seek shelter, I find eves and overhangs impossible. When I encounter a shop or coffeehouse, thinking it a fine place to hide until the drenching rain subsides, I am skirted out the door. The world is turning dark and the gutters begin to swell. But I realize I am not in a fantasy, nor am I on Earth 2. This is the world which we have created, shunting Emmanuel's beautiful forward progression for Caminiti's gritty noir. We are a society growing cold, at odds with the Utopian idealism of the Golden Rule. I will endure this cold, pounding rain because it is the punishment I deserve for a fool's errand. I fall asleep in the gutter, naked and exposed for the world to kick.
Electric Eyes [7-inch; Retrograde]
By Grant 'Gumshoe' Purdum on Apr 8 2013
Might be the best record of a sturdy batch of late. Den's Electric Eyes 7-inch is mean, mighty, quick with the sword; they can rumble slow and hard or they can jam it a bit. Either way the sturdy James Plotkin (who engineers every record I review now) mix allows the project to digress without losing the buzz. These guys are super-stoned without being annoying about it, angry without being melodramatic about it, and heavy as shit-balls without being all 'metal' about it; it's like Sleep/OM and Melvins with Acid Mothers Temple sound effects sprinkled over top. Curiously satisfying, it is. When those trippy effects flutter in you wonder why they don't just drape a few layers more just for good measure, but that might be why it works in the first place; they don't milk it to death. I don't like the hippy-dippy jam-bam of "Spectrum Shock" initially, and the Muppet vocals don't do anything to change my mind (though the track gets pretty crazy later on, I must admit). Hey, they can't all be winners. An interesting new band, Den are. With them, the force be.Links: Den - Retrograde
Nose Bleed Island
True Story [CS; Singapore Sling]
By Strauss on Apr 8 2013
Hello and welcome to my review of the best tape of 2013. Let me show you around. First, this is where we take a look at the J-card, with the insanely cool retro-future space scene cover artwork by someone called Olga. Inside the card there, we'll find an insert which gives a brief biography of Nose Bleed Island, detailing the exploits of one Joey Pizza Slice and his band of a cardboard Dracula, a robot, and an 11 year old named Zbear. The story is replete with tales of drunken debauchery, Nazi ass-kicking and an undying and immaculate love of all things pizza. Over here is where I tell you about the perfect little pop tunes that pepper themselves about this retrospective collection of tracks, one of which dates back almost a decade. And here I write about twee in a real general, non-specific sort of way, just to give the review some kind of referential grounding. And then I mention a few bands like Guided By Voices and Beat Happening and early Built to Spill and Sebadoh, and how Nose Bleed Island would probably sneeze on, and then puke over all that stuff after taking a big bite of a rotten piece of pickled pepperoni. Over in this area is where I use the word "infectious," although I feel bad about using that word, since it is so cliché. So I conclude that Nose Bleed Island is less infectious and more like a serious infection. It's bruised all black and blue around it, scabbed over and kind of painful, actually, but you can't seem to quit picking at it, which is gross but in that fun, silly and immature kind of way. And then there's a bunch of junk in the corner over there. A drum machine, and a Casio keyboard, and a diorama of the solar system, and pizza, a bag of marbles, and getting stood up for the prom, and Obama, and dirty dishes, a VHS copy of "Waterworld" starring Kevin Costner, and drawings of dinosaurs, and poodle skirts, and a pop quiz you got a D- on, and a keepsake from your family's Disney Land vacation when you were nine. And I guess that's it, so thanks for coming.Links: Nose Bleed Island - Singapore Sling
Fluorescent Heights
Tidal Motions [CS; Constellation Tatsu]
By Jspicer on Apr 5 2013
Oh what magnificent heights! I am bathed by the sun, wings melted by the heat like Icarus. But I ignore reason for the sine waves lift me up higher and higher. Fluorescent Heights has cut me loose. Gravity means nothing. The oceans rise with me; I am swimming among the Great Barrier Reef in the stratosphere. I jump beside Felix Baumgartner but do not fall to earth. This is my new home, enveloped in heavenly clouds and the synthesizers of angels. I am rocked to silver lining sleep on a bed of Tidal Motions. The moon is my reading lamp, the sky my window. I never want to feel terra firma with my feet again. The beach and the mud and the stone and the grass are all up here anyway. This is better than The Rapture because anyone can come. No sin exists in weightlessness. And if it does, Fluorescent Heights will absolve it. This will make it right. I lay my head on the bosom of a star. I rest my feet on the edge of Olympus Mons.Links: Fluorescent Heights - Constellation Tatsu
Between Strangers [7-inch; Touch]
By Grant 'Gumshoe' Purdum on Apr 5 2013
It says on the jacket that one of the melodies used on this 7-inch is pulled from a lo-fi recording at a refugee camp in Germany. Damn Sohrab, where do we go from here? And Sohrab will answer your question with another query: Where won't we go from here? Between Strangers is experimental thought-crime on the highest order, obsessed with waves, open ear space, unconventional rhythms, and woozy soundscapes. "Endless Spring" is a crowd erupting then slowly settling into perpetuity, after which each participant wanders into the desert and gets lost in the void. That's actually the flip; "Hejrat" leads off and follows a sitar and sampled siren singing into a temple of super-subdued drone. Water is burbling in a fountain as the chanting holds our gaze, a shuffling half-beat keeping time. More liquid drift drips into a drone funnel before a stuttering static edge hints at a locked groove. But it is not to be; relax, the end is near.Links: Sohrab - Touch
Matthew Dotson
Excavation [CS; Self-released]
By Strauss on Apr 4 2013
This tape by Matthew Dotson is probably not the most ideal choice for review in Cerberus, since it's my understanding that these reviews are supposed to be pretty short in general. But the Chicago noisenik packs so many different ideas, textures, and inflections into this incredible collage of sounds and styles that I'm going to struggle to keep my thoughts on Excavation as brief here as possible. My understanding is that Dotson records most of his work live, with sound sources culled from collected recordings of his world travels (notably Japan for the A-side of this tape, which features some pretty prominent Koto playing somewhere in the first half). But a lot of this stuff feels more than just live tape mixing and manipulating of found sounds — everything feels very performed, from moments of break-beat/noise that reminds me of some of Mouse on Mars more free-form mind scrambles, or maybe even Aphex Twin, to some drowsy extensions of electric guitar tones that drift into downtrodden post-rock, like outtakes from an older Tortoise LP strung together into a medley of beauty, intrigue, and general craziness. Aside from the sheer variety of sounds, and the complexity with which everything is woven together (truly excellent pacing through all of this, by the way), dynamics and solid understanding and exploitation of the stereo space are also some of Dotson's stronger suits. Both sides are deep and compelling excursions into environments that remain hopelessly musical. That is, Excavation is a real album to be listened to for those basic musical elements in addition to being a tapestry of noises giving us something to awkwardly stare at in confused wonder.Links: Matthew Dotson
Terminator 2
s/t [CS; Handmade Birds]
By Grant 'Gumshoe' Purdum on Apr 4 2013
You can't just go 'round killing all the other bands, Terminator 2! Love where this Denton, Texas, three-piece's doom-obsessed heads are at. It's not brain surgery: Slowwww basslines that never stop, ever; occasional guitar sludge but not all the time; copious effects that do so much more than take up space… if you like those Hell records (I and II, plus a split with Thou) and/or Gravity Records you're all set on this. The singer barks so convincingly even the death-metal legends seem trivial in comparison. He really gets down there, to the depths of his very soul. You can't argue with that kind of passion, and he's got a band behind him that fuckin' stone-owns it. Deep and disconcerting, dark and disorderly, deathly and demented, dour and dim, damned and dismembered, destructive and dogged in their pursuit of doom holiness, Terminator 2 take on intriguing shapes when they're at their best. I'm shocked at how much I dig this, perhaps more than even the material demands. Just right up my alley I guess, to the point where they're almost stealing ideas I never had. Asunder, Dead And Gone, Unsane, Bloodlet… so much wonderful history.Links: Handmade Birds
Hazel's Wart
Together We Didn't [LP; Skrot Up]
By Grant 'Gumshoe' Purdum on Apr 3 2013
Shit, I know the most important influences on the Together We Didn't LP hailed from Seattle circa the early 1990s, but what's with that opening riff? Are Hazel's Wart aware that it's the riff from "You Could Be Mine"? Way out of line, boyz. I forgive ye because thine stabs at a pre-grunge revival hit these ears as fairly promising, also reeking of the old SST stable. The melodic vocals balance out the soft-garbage buzz of the guitars, and the speaker-raping qualities present for much of the record can't escape a quick mention of… ahhh fuggit, I won't even go there. Mostly Together We Didn't just rocks (save for when it's not; there are a few soundtrack-style flourishes) it's motherfuckin' ass off, and I can't tell you how much I need that in my life right now. Can't stop; won't stop; don't stop.Links: Hazel's Wart - Skrot Up
William Basinski
Shortwavemusic [7-inch Reel; Auris Apothecary]
By Jspicer on Apr 3 2013
Pleasantries first: Auris Apothecary and Cerberus entered the world the same day in the same year. I consider this no coincidence, for we are all particles connected to one another by hippie bullshit that doesn't matter in the end because we're all screwed up. AA transmits that and we report it. And for more than a decade, William Basinski has had to be swallowed by the same damning press all because his masterwork happened to find its completion as the twin towers of the World Trade Center sadly crumbled on the same day. Irony isn't always fun , but AA's twisted smirks and Basinski's fragile compositions can make it so. Shortwavemusic's latest reissue (of many from the 1982 composition) came in the midst of New Year's in the guise of a 1/4-inch tape on a 7-inch reel. Without purpose, I hunted eBay to find a working reel-to-reel player for which to listen. I read, I studied, and I coveted. And here it is a pile of tape on the floor after heart and soul has been poured into such a centerpiece. But music isn't for show, it's for hearing. But AA does not heed such consequences, for it embraces both (always for the better). They knew what a clumsy but adventurous shell would do armed with 7-inches of reel. I'm sure many have framed and hung theirs by the chimney with care, but I sledgehammered it down to obtain the precious and put it through its paces. And it sounds good–oh so good. I've wrapped myself like a mummy in its discards, trying to contemplate where AA begins, Basinski takes over, and Cerberus ends. It all comes out too Donnie Darko for my tastes, so I try to ignore the coincidences. I try to focus on what each of us does and in that, I find solace. Shortwavemusic is an empowering piece, triumphant in a time where shows of aggression or talking loudest win fights. AA and Basinski take no such course. We shall oblige.Links: William Basinski - Auris Apothecary

Illegal initiation schools shut downComment on this story
Delareyville - Two illegal initiation schools have been closed down in the North West, the traditional affairs department said on Monday.
The schools, in Agisanang and Delareyville, were closed on Saturday, spokeswoman Dineo Lolokwane said.
"We received complaints from parents whose children went for initiation despite the fact that they were supposed to be in school classrooms and learning," she said in a statement.
"Cultural schools are allowed to only operate during the official school holidays in accordance with the department of education's school calendar."
At least 80 male and female initiates, aged between 14 and 50, were removed from the two premises and taken to hospital for medical examination.
"Some of the initiates went there without their parents' consent. They lived in appalling conditions without proper sanitation and water supply."
Authorities were searching for the owners of the two schools. Lolokwane said the provincial government would speed up adoption of the Initiation Schools Matters Bill to fully regulate initiation schools.

For his Spring 2013 collection Henrik Vibskov gave us an intense mix of visually stimulating pieces. Hitting on almost every major trend from color blocking to layered prints to cutouts and gradients, the show was an exercise in controlled ADHD. High impact combinations of graphic sweaters and pants and shorts with polka dot cutouts and masai motifs segued into more demure looks such as classic white shirts and simple jumpsuits.
The range of the collection was obviously eclectic but somehow managed to work in harmony with each other as the wackiness of a black and pink ensemble, made up primarily of hole,s made some of the more conservative looks with just a single over the top statement piece a lot more digestible. The amalgamation of colors like cobalt, red, white, black, hot pink and bright orange played off each other quite nicely. This collection was all about fun basics and a juxtaposition of trends. Normally a theme like this wouldn't work but somehow this time it came out highly appealing and not at all gimmicky.

|Random regression model estimation of genetic parameters for show-jumping results of Hungarian Sporthorses.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 20646115 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process
|The aim of this study was to estimate the genetic parameters for show-jumping competition performance of Hungarian Sporthorses using a random regression model. There were 21,210 records from 739 horses collected in Hungary between 1996 and 2004. Performance was expressed as shifted Blom normalized ranks and as the difference between fence height and fault points. The random regression model (RRM) included fixed effects for sex, year, location, and obstacle height and random effects for animal, rider and permanent environment. Regressions for the random effects in the RRM were modelled with Legendre polynomials from first to fifth order of fit. The model focused on performance of horses from 4 to 11 years of age, with heterogeneous residual variances considered. The heritabilities were low to moderate for both variables. Genetic and phenotypic correlations between different ages decreased with increasing distance between the ages.

Q: I have a question for you concerning one of our inside cats. There's nothing wrong with him, it's just a weird thing he does regarding canned food.
We give all of our cats, both indoor and outdoor cats, a little canned food in the morning and evening. Most of them eat whatever we put in their bowl, except one. He will eat tuna or chicken but not tuna and chicken together. What is that about?
A: I have a feeling that sometimes our cats — especially those who have lived inside and get regular feedings — develop a pickiness that we don't always see in cats that have to forage for their food. I'm going to guess your cat knows the food is coming and is going to be there, so he's decided he wants his a specific way and that is that.
Sometimes humans have little foibles about how and what they will eat, so it would stand to reason cats could as well.
As an example, I know some folks who like corn and they like lima beans, but just can't understand the succotash combination. Sounds like your cat may be one of those.
One thing's for sure — life with cats is rarely dull!
Q: Could this weather be affecting my animals? My cats have been running around the house like crazy things and we can't figure out why.
A: Certainly our animals are affected by changes in climate and season — sometimes I think possibly more so than humans are, because their responses can be more natural than ours and they often react instinctively. They're very attuned to nature, and this winter has been rougher than we've seen in years.
Make sure your cats have enough toys during the day and try to play with them a little more when you are home to get some of this energy out.

My husband requested oysters for his birthday dinner...we had them raw, in pasta, and in this recipe. This was our favorite! Bar-b-queing the oysters also made shucking much easier.
I mixed the ingredients together and poured them over freshly grilled oysters. AMAZING! And so simple - thank you! :D

These are great. This was my first time grilling oysters so I was a bit leary. They turned out great.
This was my first time at making oysters, and they turned out pretty tasty. I used the oven since the BBQ was rained out. I cooked the oysters at 450 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until they ...
Absolutely delish!! A great alternative for those afraid to try raw oysters.

The Bishop gets it wrong over "there is no such thing as society."
The Bishop of London, Rt Rev Richard Chartres, had mixed reviews for his funeral sermon. The original report on the Daily Mail website accused him of 'talking through his beard' and introducing a 'sour note' because he had the temerity to point out that the Tolpuddle Martyrs were, like Lady Thatcher, brought up as Methodists. At the time of writing, no one has protested that it was an insult to the Tolpuddle Martyrs, but no doubt that will happen.
Where the Bishop pleased Lady Thatcher's admirers was with his explanation of why she said that "there is no such thing as society." The phrase has been "misunderstood", he said and "refers in her mind to some impersonal entity to which we are tempted to surrender our independence"
But this is not right. Thatcher's theme was not self-reliance, but responsibility – or rather the lack of it, in adults who have children but do not want to cope with parenthood. And it was not a comment that slipped out by mistake: she actually made the assertion twice in one interview.
Speaking to Woman's Own on 23 September 1987, she said: "Too many children and people have been given to understand 'I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!' or 'I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!' 'I am homeless, the Government must house me!' and so they are casting their problems on society and who is society? There is no such thing!"
The actual, much-quoted phase came out a few sentences later, when she added: "If children have a problem, it is society that is at fault. There is no such thing as society." The full text is here.
We can all agree that adults who have children should care for them: they should not expect others to do it for them. But, sadly, there will always be some children brought into the world by parents who are willfully irresponsible or incapable of bringing them up, and if "there is no such thing as society" to take care of them either, what do Thatcherites suppose will happen to those children?

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 750, just launched in India, is the internationally available Galaxy Tab 10.1.
I'll get to the fluffy "feel-good" part in a bit, but first things first.
Let me throw this thought at you – if the Samsung Galaxy Tabs are so easily dismissable, then why is apple going red in the face trying to prevent Samsung from marketing the Galaxy Tab in Europe ?
Without using up too many words on extolling the virtues of the iPad, let me just say this much- sure, there is no doubt that the iPad is a brilliant tablet phone but it's not the only great tablet phone out there.
When you stack up the features of the currently reigning version of iPad and those of some leading Android tablets like the latest Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (aka Tab 750 in India) , you realize that while the Galaxy Tab is no "iPad killer" the superiority of an iPad is running wafer-thin .
Then again, apple isn't a cult brand for nothing and Steve Jobs isn't considered a brilliant marketer for his storytelling ability alone.Watch out, the apple and android phone wars are only going to get hotter.
Okay, now that we have established the basic premise of this post, which is-
the apple iPad might be leading right now, but Sammy's Galaxy Tab is snapping at it's heels and is simply too good to be ignored , let's move on.
Right, now why is the new Galaxy Tab a fashion blogger's delight ?
Here's why-
- Large 10.1 inch fabulously bright and clear Hi-definition display
- One of (if not the) the lightest and slimmest tablets around
- The latest version of Android OS which works pretty well on the tablet format
- Peripherals and apps for taking photos and videos, making voice and video calls, recording audio, and playing music
- Video calling (front camera)
- Convenient access to Facebook, Twitter, discussion forums, and other social networks
- Excellent web browsers, email, and calendar apps
- Flash support
- Ability to watch movies and shows streamed from both free and fee-based online video aggregation services (e.g. YouTube, Netflix, Amazon, Vudu, Hulu, Crackle, etc.)
- Great apps for leveraging online resources such as maps, shopping, news sites, dictionaries, language translators, Wikipedia, etc.
- A choice of free e-book readers, with easy downloads of both free and paid books
- Tons of free and paid games
All of these features add up to a device that is cool, efficient and saves precious time when gathering and managing content. This in turn, means a blogger can create a good stockpile of stuff that serves as raw material for upcoming posts. Having a great pipeline full of inspiring content, just waiting to be crafted into a nicely written post, is every blogger's secret source of bliss.
Admittedly there is no single Tablet phone (or any other device for that matter) out there, that can replace all the gadgets a blogger would need to do a stellar job of blogging which typically (at least for established blogs) includes recording
in-depth interviews, editing high quality videos and highly detailed crystal clear photographs and a host of other stuff to manage the blog's operations ; but between the Galaxy Tab 750 and a great camera, I think you are pretty much covered , especially from an "on-the-go"content gathering and research perspective, and that is saying something.
Some people are grumbling about the lack of enough Samsung apps, the slightly plasticky feel and the fact that Android OS isn't (yet) ready for tablets , but these are still early days, and everyone agrees that Samsung is getting really good at bringing out winner after winner.
For full "tech specs" and a complete run-down of all the features , check these links
Disclaimer– The Samsung Galaxy Tab 750 has just been launched in the Indian market and this review is based on the currently available information

Ice Rink: Home Projects
Yankee Plus Dec 2015
Project: Build a backyard skating rink
My brother Paul grew up on Block Island, Rhode Island, where there were many ponds but little snow — so he and his friends skated whenever they wanted. That spontaneity was something he dreamed of for his children, Catherine and Peter, so Paul and his wife, Jane, built a 38×56-foot ice rink in their backyard in Kensington, New Hampshire.
Cover the ground with a tarp to protect the surface of the ice from rocks, roots, and sticks. For his first rink, Paul used a blue 40×60-foot construction tarp. Around it, he built walls from 2×6-inch framing lumber in 10-foot lengths. To reinforce the sidewalls, which would have to hold gallons of water, Paul used a simple construction technique: He made plywood gussets and attached them to 2×4-inch L-brackets, and then fastened these support units to the frame with sheetrock screws at about every 10 feet.
Over the past six years, Paul has refined his plan. He no longer uses a construction tarp; the blue color absorbed too much sun, so he's turned to a white NiceRink liner, which wraps over the sidewalls. To guard it from tears by skates, hockey sticks, and pucks, Paul built an interior wall of plywood boards, which he painted white (to reflect sunlight). An effective barrier between skaters and liner, the boards are clamped to the frame with blocks. (Don't use screws, as they'll puncture the liner.)

The MMO genre is more than World of Warcraft, Age of Conan, and Warhammer Online. Here's what's going on in the rest of the world.
Battleground Europe launches new website
Playnet Inc.'s Amy-Lynn Engelbrecht informs us that the destination site for Cornered Rat Software's World War 2 MMO, Battleground Europe, has gotten a significant makeover. With a focus on providing information that's more helpful to members of its strong and active community, the new updated site also features an RSS feed for news, or the option to receive regular updates by Feedburner email. Join up and fight with a 14-day free trial!
Ankama Games announces new Wakfu features
The spiritual and temporal successor to Ankama's previous title Dofus, Wakfu is an up-and-coming 2D MMO with a currently unreleased launch date. However, bits and pieces of news trickle out from time to time, such as the following: There will be an Enchantment profession, in which items are dismantled for their runes, then grafted onto new items for special powers. Taking a page from World of Warcraft?
Secondly, Wakfu will have no NPCs to offer quests. Instead, the game will have "Dynamic Challenges" -- quests that arise when environmental conditions are right, such as time, area, etc. The types of Challenges include Kill, Ecosystem, Social, and Discovery. Each will be available in both solo and team play.
Pirates of the Burning Sea won't get skirmishes any time soon
At the recent Sony Online Entertainment Fan Faire event, Pirates of the Burning Sea developer Drew Clowerly admitted that development on skirmishes -- player-controlled PvP -- was no longer actively in the future, having been the responsibility of a developer who left the company. Clowerly also mentioned that Flying Labs was "short of developers at the moment", but that the studio is by no means in trouble. "We have lots of assets, it's just getting someone to implement them." Skirmishes are still being planned, as is an eventual expansion.
Runes of Magic to feature extensive character skills customization
More information on Runes of Magic's character skill development system have come to light. RoM offers a dual-class system, whereby the primary class may use its skills, but only certain secondary skills may be used, based on the secondary class chosen by the player.
In addition, the classes may be changed at any time, but classes will only level up if they are in the primary slot. Each class has its own special ability that may be used with a cost of an hour-long recharge time. Furthermore, skills will have elements assigned to them -- fire, water, wind, earth, light, and darkness -- and applying these skill in the sproper order will modify their effects, increasing their effectiveness in combat. For more information, check out the RoM site.
APB being developed for NVIDIA hardware
Realtime Worlds has announced that it's developing APB to run best on NVIDIA video cards, which feature the PhysX physics engine. "In order to fully realize the vision of APB ... we choose to standardize our development on GeForce GPUs and Nvidia PhysX technology, the combination of which has given our developers the power and freedom to deliver the first action and physics based combat gameplay into the massively multiplayer online space," says CEO Dave Jones. It's unknown at this time what performance on non-NVIDIA cards will resemble.
Jumpgate Evolution will be playable at the Penny Arcade Expo
In-development space combat MMO Jumpgate Evolution will be playable at this year's Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) at booth #712. The Expo will run from August 29 - 31 in Seattle, Washington and JE studio Netdevil will show the game on Alienware Area-51 m15x notebooks. This is good news for players with concerns over the graphical specs they'll need to run the game.
The Secret World not quite as secret anymore
Two screenshots of the until-now media blackout title The Secret World by developer Funcom have made their way to the Internet, "leaked" by the studio itself. Included in its quarterly report, the two shots seem to confirm the rumored Lovecraftian nature of the title's antagonists. Director Ragnar Tornquist remarks " ... no, of course it's not done. I think the game looks absolutely fantastic, but it's going to look even more absolutely fantastic when it's released."

2012 Annual Report
Mapping and map-based cloning of agriculturally and economically important traits for crop wheat improvement remain a great challenge due to its large and complex genome. For the same reason, complete sequencing of wheat genome still represents a daunting task. Generation of valuable genomics resources could greatly facilitate various aspects of wheat research. In collaborative efforts, various high resolution maps including genetic, physical, and radiation hybrid maps have been generated. These maps are widely accessible to the wheat research community. The development of bacterial artificial chromosome-based physical map for the wheat D genome provides a foundation for future sequencing of the entire wheat D genome.
The high molecular weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) proteins are major determinants of the quality of food products made from wheat flours, yet the mechanisms of how they influence dough processing properties are still poorly understood. Understanding the molecular bases of how these proteins unique to wheat function will provide new knowledge in wheat. To this end, scientists at WRRC screened wheat mutant lines that are deficient in genes encoding the HMW-GS to understand the changes of chemical and physical properties associated with the lack of expression of individual HMW-GS in mutant lines. This is the first time that the role of individual HMW-GS has been examined in vivo. In addition, the Unit published an extensive study of the roles of different regions of the HMW-GS play in dough quality and identified factors in dough characteristics.
The substantial increases of wheat yield were made possible by introducing dwarfing traits into modern wheat cultivars. Therefore, the dwarf trait in crops has contributed greatly to the sustainable food supply demanded by the increasing world population. A large genomic region spanning a severe dwarfing gene region has been sequenced. Comparative analysis with rice, Brachypodium, and sorghum indicated a high sequence conservation among grass species. New cis-regulatory elements that control/regulate the expression of the dwarfing gene were identified, facilitating future biotechnological application of these regulatory elements for crop improvement.
The on-going project to develop and utilize Brachypodium as a model system for Triticeae research for grain quality and other traits has progressed significantly. Over 10,000 T-DNA insertional mutant lines have been generated for functional genomics study in this model species. Brachypodium genes involved in lignin biosynthesis has been functionally characterized to understand the cell wall structure and function. In addition, a viral resistance gene has been identified and mapped in Brachypodium. This is the first demonstration that Brachypodium can be exploited for isolation of resistance genes for important crops.

Columbia, SC (WLTX) -- If you missed The Morning Show Tuesday, or just want to check out what we were talking about again, we had a bit of ridiculous video.
When an Ohio woman was refused Chicken McNuggets at McDonald's she flips out. The clerk told her it was breakfast time (come on, everyone loves McDonald's breakfast) and the customer tried to come through the drive through window, punching the cashier and then breaking the drive through window with something from her car.
Somebody needs a Happy Meal.

A tech cube was a type of computer memory storage that could hold a holographic program. Coupled with an enhancement module it was known as an optronic data core.
In 2369, Reginald Barclay used a tech cube on the USS Enterprise-D to store the holoprogram Picard Delta One, trapping the rogue holograms James Moriarty and Countess Regina Bartholomew. It was latter coupled with an enhancement module to provide the program with enough active memory for a lifetime of experiences. (TNG: "Ship in a Bottle")
While only referred to in dialog as "the cube", the script for "Ship in a Bottle" used the term "tech cube".

Once more she says
goodbye to love, once
again the tears fall
in raindrop form to the
floor. Within each tear
lies a tiny shard of her
soul, coupled with the
love that ended in his
heartbreak. She was a
fool to let him slip away
like the morning mist -
things won't ever be right
again. There they lie - all
the shards of her heart.
A dark mass of blue-black
silk is all that is left of
her will to live. Her pain
is nothing compared with
her former lover's unending

Hey Guys,
I have been a follower of Golden Skate for a long time but have never made an account until today. The reason being is that I need some advice.
I am an ice dance hopeful working my way through my tests with my coach (testing junior at next test date). We have been searching for a partner for a while now, and i realize this is not always a quick process and can often take months or years to find someone who is a match. However I have recently had my parents tell me that unless I can find a partner by early next year, I will have to quit skating.
I was wondering if you guys could give me some advice here. Is this a realistic time limit to set on finding a partner? Do you have any stories on people who have taken a long time to find a partner but then had some success?
Also any advice on talking my parents out of this?
Would be greatly appreciated.....

Hello fellow anglers!!! I am providing some fishing reports only as either based on my successes, friends reports or other area anglers who are nice enough to share their wealth of fishing knowledge. I apologize in advance for not updating them more often, but the conditions change so fast, it makes it pretty tough. My take on fishing reports is, use them strictly as a guide to help you if YOUR patterns are not working. Don't go away from what you are comfortable doing or are successful at doing, just because someone told you "they" caught fish this way. So, here are some reports, Good Luck, and remember, "A bad day fishing, is better than a good day at work."

Bass report by Craig Miller at The Dugout
Bass fishing is fair to good. Largemouth are relating to the slightly cooler water temperatures at the back of these tributaries. There is some schooling out in the main lake mostly from mid lake to the upper end. Lots of white bass mixed in with small to medium sized spots. They are very skittish on the top water so use the Lucky Craft CB 200's in American shad. Also the Mini Me's in the Allatoona Special color can be used as deep as 30 feet. The fish are holding in deep water from 18 to 26 feet near main lake points. Use a Texas rig worm on light line 6 pound test line and a finesse worm for the deep water early. Mid morning change up to a big deep diving crank bait and move to the river channel ledges. Try the small version of the Spittin Image in shad for the schooling fish as the threadfin have just spawned. The threadfin the fish are feeding are very small. Once the fish go down you can catch a few of them on the drop shot using a very small bait like a 3 inch Cut Tail, Tiny Fluke or baby Sluggo. Keep an close eye on your sonar to see these drop shot fish. Some big bass are cursing the shallows during the heat of the day. They are biting the big 8 inch swim baits and there are some largemouth bass hitting top water late afternoon up lake close to the rivers. Out on the main lake from Little River to Downing Creek the spots are chasing bait and are running with the stripers and hybrids on the lower end of the lake from the dam to Clarks Creek. These fish are hitting spinner baits and small crank baits and top water plugs early to late evening. Look for the schooling activity and use the run and gun approach to catch these fish.

Bass Report by Ken Sturdivant
Spotted bass are deep and tight on cover and points from 25 to 30 feet are the best locations. The FLW folks tested our lake for two weeks and found the deep spots and largemouth on brush piles on rocky points all the way out to 40 feet deep. The gravel points down lake have a few fish on them. There has not been a lot of top water action but keep a clear Zara Spook Jr ready and make dead on casts to the fish to get a bite. Fish are feeding very late at night into the twilight of mornings. After the sun is up, fishing is tough. Try the rock island in the back of Big Creek and work the entire island at least twice and stay off in deep water and make long casts. For the bigger fish work the deep man made and natural cover with small hair jigs and worms. Worms should be greens, Smoky Joe and sand on a Texas rig. Fishing has been barely fair for both sizes and numbers. Work the Fish Head Spin with a Zoom baby bass Fluke on 10 pound test Sufix Elite line. Use the Texas rigged worms in the lime aide colors and be sure to work the lure all the way back to the boat on points. Pick rocky points right at the mouths of the major creeks and work a 1/8 ounce Bitsey Bug with a twin tail trailer. Cast shallow after dark and put the baits right on the banks. The river fish are a little shallower. Use jigs, Texas rigged worms in greens and small Shad Raps in shad patterns. The Flash Trix shad imitations will also work on the drop shot rigs. Just find the brush piles with the Lowrance Structure Scan Down Scan technology and if there are fish there, you can see them clearly. No fish, no stay. Right off marker 33 on the Cheastee river bend, work a small crank bait like the white or root beer Bandit 200 crank bait. Use light 8 pound test and make sure to hit the bank on every cast. The bass will attack this lure and be sure to add some Mega Strike scent to these hard baits. The docks around Shady Grove Park on the up stream side of the park are the best docks. Also Shoal Creek marker #3 on the down stream side has some brush and some good spots.

Bbass report from Roger McKee
Bass fishing is slow and the continued heat wave the bass bite. Try to get on the water a couple of hours before daylight and fish the lighted docks in Richland Creek using a Bandit 200 or Cotton Cordell CC shad. If that's a little slow, fish a black ribbon tale worm on the corner posts and under the lights. Usually you will have your limit of largemouth and a few stripers before the dawn breaks. The deeper seawalls in Richland Creek are holding a few fish. Your best approach will be to fish a 1/4 ounce white buzz bait or devils horse while paralleling the seawall. Work both baits slowly while keeping an eye out for bait fish. After 10 a.m. move out to the main lake points and alternate between a 1/2 ounce Jewell football jig and a Carolina rig and fish out to 25 feet. Most strikes will occur in fifteen to twenty feet of water and will be very light. Most times you will just feel additional weight. Keeping your finger on the line at all times will catch you a few additional fish. Deep cranking the shoal markers at the mouth of Richland Creek and Double Branches will get a few bites. Use your Lowrance to locate the pods of bait around the rock shoals and back off and make repeated casts to an area before leaving. Most of these fish are in thirteen to eighteen feet of water. Some good crank bait choices would be #7 Fat Free Shads, Norman DD22 and Spro's Little John DD20.
Carters: Level: 0.6 feet below full pool. Temp: High 80s.
Bass report by GON staff
Bass: Guide Louie Bartenfield reports, "The bite on Carters at night has been strong. It's not very consistent, but on any given night you could have the night of your life. There have been some really big weights in the tournaments over the past month, even 25 pounds on a Friday night a few weeks ago! Before dark, a jig-head finesse worm and a drop shot are the best ways to get a limit. After dark is when you can get right in a hurry. I've been focusing on isolated rock piles 10 to 15 feet deep and bluff banks." Louie said he's using a deep-diving crankbait, a 1/2-oz. black/blue jig and a 1/4-oz. shaky head with a Big Bite Baits Squirrel Tail worm. "Some nights the numbers are good, but most nights you're fishing for four or five bites, especially on the offshore stuff. I'll gladly take four bites in four hours on the crankbait and jig. Move a lot, and fish as many bluffs and rocky offshore areas as possible, and you'll get bit," he said.

Drunk drivers among illegals freed by ICE
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 03/20/2013 @ 10:08 am In Front Page,Money,Politics,U.S. | No Comments
(WASHINGTON TIMES) The Obama administration's top deportation official acknowledged on Tuesday that he could have asked Congress for flexibility to avoid having to release more than 2,000 immigrants back onto the streets ahead of the budget sequesters, but he decided the releases were a better option.
John Morton, director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, also said that some of those he has had to release have multiple drunk-driving offenses on their record, since those are not considered level one cases. He did not provide exact numbers.
Mr. Morton's decision to release 2,228 immigrants over a three-week period in February has become a major flashpoint in the debate over sequestration — the automatic budget cuts that took effect March 1.

Hey all,
So I've just finished American Gods and before I move onto to my next unread Discworld book I thought I'd see if there was anything I hadn't heard of that attracted my curiosity. I'd love some book and author reccomendations, and who better to receive them from but other nerdfighters!
I like:
Neil Gaiman
Terry Pratchet
Kurt Vonnegut
Philip K Dick
I've heard R.A. Salvatore is good and I'm enjoy the game Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning that he wrote the history for. Anyone recommend where to begin with him?

Have you ever read any Piers Anthony, there are his Xanth novels. The series starts with A Spell For Chameleon. I also Geodessy series starting with Isle of Woman.
Ooo thanks, Isle of Woman in particular sounds like it has an interesting plot mechanic.
Both of those sound interesting, thanks! When you say they his books require re-reading, do you mean you want to read them over and over or that they require rereading to make sense of them?
If you haven't already, you should definitely read the super co-authored "Good Omens", by Neil Gaiman AND Terry Pratchett. It's super funny, intelligent, and thought-provoking. It is easily one of the best books ever.
I have! I read that before I read American Gods actually, and you're right, its damned brilliant. I'm currently reading Neverwhere and enjoying it immensely, especially as I live in London :)
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo will blow your mind, guaranteed. Best book in the world.
I absolutely love that series! The books are long, but I ending up finishing the trilogy in a week.
Those are some great authors! I just finished reading Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke, it is a strange and wonderful alien invasion story. Also, Immortal by Gene Doucette was pretty good.
Have you ever read any of Dan Simmons works? I would start with the Hyperion series.
If you liked "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?", you might like "Oryx and Crake" by Margaret Atwood (I did not mean to sound like Amazon there, sorry). Her writing is in a very similar style to Philip's and it's a very interesting sci-fi/dystopia story.
Read anything by Ridley Pearson or Brandon Mull. They both write fantastic YA books.
Machine Man by Max Barry one of the best books I've ever read I can't recommend it enough.

As companies prepare for tomorrow's competitive battles, the idea of building organizations with extensive internal capability seems increasingly archaic. For many businesses, alliances with suppliers, customers, and even competitors represent the wave of the future. In addition to being less capital-intensive than going it alone, such strategic partnerships can give businesses a leg up in the market. But as Robert Porter Lynch points out in his book Business Alliances Guide: The Hidden Competitive Weapon (John Wiley & Sons, 1993, $29.95), designing relationships that work is easier said than done.
Lynch, a consultant who has helped design or manage more than 40 alliances, offers a credible analysis of why strategic linkups have become more common. One big reason: companies have lost faith that acquisitions can work. His most valuable contribution is his discussion of how to think through what he calls "alliance architecture." Many relationships disintegrate not because managers are weak negotiators but because they don't know how to manage the deals after they've been struck.
Lynch's book is packed with pointers on how to find partners, how to use lawyers, and how to deal with issues of ownership and control. For those who want to enter the era of alliances with their eyes open, it's a timely resource.* * *

Britney Spears Confirms Honda Center Date
While it's kind of hard to gauge what the Femme Fatale tour holds (the album, out March 28, is streaming here and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Album chart), we know it's not going to be the Monster Ball. Still, there has to be something special going on when Britney is getting Nicki Minaj on her stage--today, she even tweeted about a Nicki Minaj/Ke$ha remix:
"Get some! The final version of the #TTWEREMIX featuring my girls @NickiMinaj @Keshasuxx is officially here!"
Click HERE to listen. The tour begins June 16 in Sacramento and is scheduled to end in Toronto on Aug. 13. Complete ticket info is available here.

The first thing that comes to mind when I'm looking at these draws is wow they have a lot of qualifying draws. However, most of them have been listed as no match, and most of the players have been promoted to the main draw, maybe a lot of people have pulled out?
There are not very many big names in this event, Bao Chunlai, Boonsak Ponsana, Hafiz Hashim, Kuan Beng Hong and Chetan Anand are the first big names that I've noticed so far. I don't know who the first seed was, but it looks like they pulled out of the event. The international calendar is going to be quiet for a while now, which is a little disappointing after the excitement surrounding All Englands and Swiss Open, but when summer rolls around we'll have a few more things to talk about.
Happy Suwon Asian Badminton Championship 2009 Draws
2 Responses to Happy Suwon Asian Badminton Championship 2009: Draws Released
Chen Jen pulled out due to injury on his waist. He was #1 seed. Bao was going to have have surgery but since no first string Chinese players are going, he is in. Don't expect too much from him tough. Hope that gives some of the younger players to shine. Most of these Chinese top players are close to 30 come 2012 Olympic.There is no bog name players in this tourney for Men's Single. On the women's side watch out for the young Chinese players, from Wang Yihan to Zhu Jin JIn. Another one to watch could be HK's Yip Pui Yin. She was silver medalist 2(?) years ago. Her nemsis Wang is now her coach. The duo beat all the top Chinese players that year to claim gold & silver for Hong Kong.
On the men's side, Indian Open quarter finalist, Chen Long meet Hashim after 2 rounds. Chen upset your favourite Lee Ching Wei in first round but lost to Hashim in 1/4. Taufik wont he final hands down so Hashim got be the a favourite this time. On the women's side, it's any one game. Zie & Zhou are both playing and I think are both fatigued. Zhou Mi has a shot at World #1 if she wins this tourney tough. She is not that far behind the great Dane.

We're leaving in about 1/2 an hour to take 20 of our juniors and teens to camp at The Wilds. I'm taking my computer along (it came back from the repair shop just in time! Yay!), although blog posts may be intermittent during the week.
In the meantime, if there any Swagbucks codes or really hot deals, I'll likely be posting on the Luv2BFrugal Facebook page, which I can access from my phone without a computer.
Off to load the van. Praying for safe travels, great decisions, and a fun week for all!
