Absolutely. How much more satisfying would it be to have seen a nice guy go bad... than it was to have a petulant rebellious teen stay petulant and rebellious?
It's clear we're supposed to associate the innocent kid from the first movie with the teenager from the second and third ones, but this is problematic in itself. There's a natural disconnect, almost as if they're two completely different characters (not helped by everybody else still being played by the same actors - what, does being a Jedi make someone enter puberty quicker?).
Which is true, Anakin's fall would have been much more dramatic had he been older, wiser and gentler, but that has nothing to do with the point I was making.
While I do empathize with your broader point that to some degree ST2009 didn't necessarily
to be a reboot -- there was definitely mileage in it perhaps bridging the eras of ENT and TOS in the canon, and certainly if there is a starship crew in Star Trek whose pasts are still very much an open book then its the TOS crew, who never actually had a proper introduction story -- the
is that the word "prequel" holds certain connotations with the general audience that Paramount hoped to target. They wanted to make a Star Trek that would appeal to as broad a cross-section of the audience as possible, and a prequel story still gives off the impression that it's being made for the fanbase first and foremost. Like it or not, that isn't the market that ST2009 and STID were targetting.
That little word, "reboot", makes all the difference in marketing
Star Trek as being a fresh take on the concept. Where a "prequel" to Star Trek might have been offputting to an audience who don't feel they're up to speed on the canon, a "reboot" opens up the possibility that this movie is an 'entry level experience' that anyone and their dog can enjoy, irrespective of whether they've ever seen Star Trek before or not. As silly as it sounds, whether the 2009 movie was being marketed as a "prequel" or a "reboot" really could have made a big difference between someone choosing to buy a ticket to see it or not.
See, the trouble with using the Star Wars prequels as a litmus test for the ability of a prequel to reach a wide audience is that Star Wars has got (and always HAS had) a much broader market appeal than Star Trek. Star Wars doesn't (or didn't in 1999 at any rate) have the perception of being as tied up inside its own canon as Star Trek is. In constrast, Star Trek still had the perception of being 'that show which is made for Trekkies', which is why this being a "reboot" was so important. They needed to assure the general audience that this was a Star Trek for
From a marketing perspective, let alone from the perspective of rebuilding a Star Trek brand that was in complete tatters following a string of percieved flops, this being a brash new reboot of the franchise was absolutely
to making the 2009 movie a success.

The Metal Gear Solid series has consistently delivered some of the best original soundtrack material in games, due in large part to the orchestrations of Harry Gregson-Willams. Those smart enough to have picked up the Limited Edition Bundle of MGS4 were treated to a bonus CD featuring 16 tracks from Gregson-Williams' killer score for the game.
For those not in the know, Harry Gregson-Williams is one of the most prolific composers of the past decade or so, with film credits ranging from "The Rock" to the upcoming "Wolverine" movie. Gregson-Williams is also unique since he is a film composer, who was sought out to lend his style to video games, starting with Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and continuing through this latest game. In fact, the only other game soundtrack to feature his music so far is Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. -

They include French casements (twin sash inside of one frame with no mullion bar between them), which gives you a completely unobstructed view. Our A-Series complementary casement windows are available in rectangles and a variety of arched shapes.
Andersen® A-Series windows and patio doors are available in custom sizes in 1/8" increments, providing a more weathertight fit for any replacement project.

Startup Essence announces EssRisk (April 2014)New software drives Eclipse and other simulators to automate and validate history matching.
Essence Products and Services has just announced EssRisk, a new tool for reservoir production history matching, forecasting and optimisation. EssRisk works alongside reservoir simulators such as Schlumberger's Eclipse, modifying parameters in the simulation deck and automating the submission of simulation runs to 'explore the modifier space in a statistically valid manner.' EssRisk includes hooks for pre and post processing packages with links to seismic and geological modelling packages.
According to Essence CEO Nigel Goodwin, EssRisk's methodology is better suited to high dimensional complex problems than conventional random walk methods which fail to explore the full problem space and which often produce incorrect answers. The tool uses the latest probabilistic techniques including Markov chain Monte Carlo methods and is a pure, cross-platform Java implementation. EssRisk resulted from a collaborative research project with ConocoPhillips which is a user as is Shell. More from Essence.

Four Economic Myths That Perpetuate The Euro CrisisSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/10/2015 12:42 -0500
Too much of the commentary about the Greek crisis has focused on whether or not Greece should drop the euro and not enough on the structural problems arising out of decades of socialism. Meanwhile, the Greek government has borrowed more money than the Greek people can possibly repay, and debased money will not make this fact disappear. On the contrary, more easy money will cause even more harm. The best thing that Europe and Greece can do for itself right now is to confront some of the economic fallacies that have long driven the debate over Greece, the euro, austerity, and debt.
Will the New Banking Proposals In Iceland Save It From Economic Instability?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/13/2015 19:00 -0500
The central bank-controlled 100% reserve system of sovereign money will indeed mitigate much of the fluctuations associated with modern day fractional-reserve banking. However, it is not a panacea against systemic distortions of economy. Centralizing any power, especially one as important as the creation of money, will inevitably lead to cronyism. And while perhaps less likely to occur than under the current system, there still will exist a risk government manipulation of credit markets which will lead to the business cycle.
Is Inequality A Bad Thing?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 04/12/2015 16:10 -0500
Whether today's most feted "intellectual leaders" and policy makers are correctly diagnosing problems or misdiagnosing them, their proposals are never anything but "viciously statist" to paraphrase Hans-Hermann Hoppe. They seemingly don't realize that economic freedom is the sine qua non for personal freedom. One simply cannot have the latter without the former. None of them seem to believe that people can be trusted to be in charge of their own affairs. The debate over the "inequality problem" is an excellent case in point. It isn't as if the knowledge required to understand the problem weren't readily available. However, most of these people were educated in statist institutions, and have rarely been exposed to any non-statist ideological viewpoints. The possibilities offered by solutions that do not involve the State in every nook and cranny of the economy and our daily lives don't even occur to them. And of course, the best social engineering plans are always their personal ones.

The Collective Delusion Of Grandeur Fades: Central Bank Inflationism Is Visibly On The WaneSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 01/11/2015 20:30 -0500
It will be even more disruptive if some among them decide that the only reason for the failure of their collective delusion of grandeur is that they have not been deluded enough and that even more wild-eyed palliatives are therefore needed. Disruption on such a scale is not what the budding entrepreneur wants to contend with as he contemplates whether to risk both his capital and his reputation in launching or expanding a business, in ordering new equipment, or hiring new staff and so fostering a meaningful recovery. Disruption on such a scale is not something we should wish to inflict upon a system we have been both unable and unwilling to fully repair. Either way – damned if they do, damned if they don't – disruption seems to be what we will get in the months ahead.

Japan's Last Stand - Portent Of Keynesian CollapseSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 11/18/2014 12:12 -0500
"Just when did Central Bankers become world media superstars and when do we get to put them back in their box?" Strutting the world stage, flitting from press conference to rubber chicken dinner, dispensing what passes for wisdom and prognosis as if the court astrologers have toppled the mighty Nebuchadnezzar and now rule in his place. Whatever happened to discreetly overseeing the balance of payments and facelessly staunching the worst panics only when absolutely necessary? This is clearly Japan's last stand and there is no real exit strategy except to explicitly default on its debt. But an economic collapse and a sovereign debt default on the world's third largest economy will contain massive economic ramifications on a global scale.
Fast-Food Workers Strike, Arrested Across America: The Unseen Costs Of The Minimum WageSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 09/04/2014 19:37 -0500
"Get up! Get down! Fast-food workers run this town!" were the chants from fast-food workers in over 100 cities across America today, as empowered by President Obama's explanation of 'fairness', they demanded a $15-per-hour minimum wage amid strikes, rallies, and acts of civil disobedience. Many fast-food chains and independent restaurants have said that a $15 hourly wage would lead to big price increases on their menus or make it impossible to eke out a profit, adding that they "believe that any minimum wage increase should be implemented over time so that the impact on owners of small and medium-sized businesses." Police arrested 19 workers in NYC and several dozen were placed in handcuffs in Detroit and organizers strongly denied unconfirmed fast-food industry accusations that some workers were being paid $250 to $500 by the union to strike. While the economic reasoning for a minimum-wage hike has been dead-and-buried, we try one more time to explain the hidden costs of the minimum wage.
The High Price Of Delaying The DefaultSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 02/26/2014 22:33 -0500
Credit is a wonderful tool that can help advance the division of labor, thereby increasing productivity and prosperity. The granting of credit enables savers to spread their income over time, as they prefer. By taking out loans, investors can implement productive spending plans that they would be unable to afford using their own resources. The economically beneficial effects of credit can only come about, however, if the underlying credit and monetary system is solidly based on free-market principles. And here is a major problem for today's economies: the prevailing credit and monetary regime is irreconcilable with the free market system.
Guest Post: The State Causes The Poverty It Later Claims To SolveSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/07/2013 21:42 -0500
The reigning paper money system is at the center of the growing income inequality and expanding poverty rates we find in many countries today. Nevertheless, states continue to grow in power in the name of taming the market system that has supposedly caused the impoverishment actually caused by the state and its allies. If those who claim to speak for social justice do nothing to protest this, their silence can only have two possible reasons. They either don't understand how our monetary system functions, in which case, they should do their research and learn about it; or they do understand it and are cynically ignoring a major source of poverty because they may in fact be benefiting from the paper money system themselves.

In the first three parts (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3) of this disheartening look back at a century of central banking, income taxing, military warring, energy depleting and political corrupting, we made a case for why we are in the midst of a financial, commercial, political, social and cultural collapse. In this final installment we'll give our best estimate as to what happens next. There are so many variables involved that it is impossible to predict the exact path to our world's end. Many people don't want to hear about the intractable issues or the true reasons for our predicament. They want easy button solutions. They want someone or something to fix their problems. They pray for a technological miracle to save them from decades of irrational myopic decisions. As the domino-like collapse worsens, the feeble minded populace becomes more susceptible to the false promises of tyrants and psychopaths. Anyone who denies we are in the midst of an ongoing Crisis that will lead to a collapse of the system as we know it is either a card carrying member of the corrupt establishment, dependent upon the oligarchs for their living, or just one of the willfully ignorant ostriches who choose to put their heads in the sand and hum the Star Spangled Banner as they choose obliviousness to awareness.

Guest Post: Still Not Spreading the Wealth AroundSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 12/03/2012 18:45 -0500
Obama has always claimed to want to spread the wealth around. Yet, as I stressed this June (and in my first ever blog post way back in July 2011!) that's the exact opposite of what he has achieved. And it's getting worse, not better. The truth of Obama's policies (and successive administrations prior to Obama) is more concentrated wealth within the financial elites and Wall Street. Banks get bailed out. Campaign donors get stimulus money. And the middle class and future generations pay for it in taxation and the Cantillon Effect. The Obama reinflation is a rotten bubble built on rotten foundations. And the growing gap between the rich and the poor is steadily beginning to resemble neofeudalism.

The great thing about standards is that there always is a document that shows how it works:
There are diffetent types of coils mentioned in it. Design A11 is widely used. It features a coil of about 43mm in diameter and about 2mm thick. The induced voltage in the secondary coil (in the N5) is proportional to the change of current in the primary coil (qi-charger). Therefore you need AC. IIRC the typical frequency is 120-175kHz. You can look it up in the specification for further details.
A change of the shape of the coil dows indeed change its behaviour as you would also change its area.
It still "works" it will still put out voltage but not the right amount to properly function.
So now how do i make a oval coil work? Would I then have to change the original ac voltage? If so that idea is scrapped. I dont have the resources this week to re invent the wheel. Maybe next week.
Then would just 2 coils be best? That way the issue with the 3 coils is avoided but it can still work for a better selection of phones tablets?

Thai Wasabi - Thai Done Right
Hubby and I have been on the lookout for our new "favorite" Thai place in town. We've tried Tropical Thai, Bangkok Thai and even Drunken Poet only to utter "meh" or "it's okay." That's not what you want from Thai - a cuisine specifically known for it's powerful pack of flavor in both spicy and sweet varieties. If you take a forkful of Thai food and don't groan in utter joy, spit it out, leave immediately and don't look back!
One Friday night, I wanted Thai so badly that I was as itchy as an addict. To get my fix, I resorted to what George W. Bush likes to call "The Google." As I was poking around, I noticed that Bradenton had an UNREAL proportion of Thai restaurants. I swear Bradenton must have more Thai restaurants than all the rest of the Florida cities combined! What's up with that Bradenton? I figured that a city so devoted to the cuisine must know what they're doing, so we decided to try one out. The name that kept popping up attached to rave reviews was Thai Wasabi, so that's where we headed out to.
For those of you who don't live close to Bradenton, breathe easy, as Thai Wasabi also has a Sarasota location off Clark Rd. But for us, the S.R. 64 location was a short 15 min drive up I-75. If the name isn't revealing enough, they serve both Thai and Japanese cuisine (including sushi). The Bradenton location is a trendy little spot, decorated in red, green and black with light wood tables. The servers are plentiful and perceptively attentive. One server even asked what must have been a regular, "no Thai tea tonight?" He shook his head and said he was hoping to save room for dessert as he threw what (I think) was another fried wonton in his mouth.
I have to admit, we were a bit nervous as the majority of people in the restaurant were ordering sushi. I started to wonder if maybe the sushi was the better bet, as it's awfully hard to master 2 cuisines, even when they're from similar countries. But my heart and my tastebuds were set on Pad Thai, and I wasn't about to turn back now. To start, we ordered up two of Mom & Dad's Egg Rolls - pork and veggies, deep fried until golden brown and served with sweet and sour sauce.
They came out piping hot, but I couldn't keep my grubby fingers off of them. The crispiness was a nice contrast to the moist texture of the pork, and of course the sauce rounded things off with a pleasant tangy sweetness. After I ate one, I immediately wished I had another. But our main entrees were fast coming. It should be no surprise that I ordered the Pad Thai (mild) and hubby ordered Chicken Fried Rice (medium).
After we each took a bite, hubby and I stopped mid-chew, looked at each other and said "Yep, that's what's up." I consider Pad Thai to be a very complex dish and the sauce is what makes or breaks it. If it's too soupy, the flavor doesn't stick to the noodles or the chicken. If it's too glue-y, the flavor is too concentrated in spots and not in others. Sometimes the sauce errs on the sickly sweet or almost acidic side, and then sometimes it's just a bland brown sauce. But this one, my friends, is perfect. The right consistency, the right sweetness, the right spiciness - just right. As I shoveled bite after glorious bite into my mouth, I could feel the itchiness give way to pure bliss. My only complaint? Not enough crushed peanuts! While they put a sprinkling on the side, I generally like more of a heaping pile to mix throughout my noodles. But seeing as how this is the best Thai I've had in Sarasota, I was not about to make a mountain out of a peanut hill (or lack thereof).
Now, to the Chicken Fried Rice. The flavor of fried rice is also a fine art. It can't just be slathered with soy sauce. For me, it has to have that garlic-y, spicy kick that makes your nose run and your forehead bead up with sweat. The rice also has to have a balance of both sticky and crunchy textures. Again, this rice hit all the right notes. Hubby barely let me have two forkfuls before it altogether disappeared. Hey Mikey, he likes it!
As we caressed our pleasantly plump bellies on the way out, we talked about coming back to try the sushi. It's a nice thought, but I imagine the Thai will always be a little too hard to pass up.

Toronto Hydro ice storm readiness disputed
Toronto Hydro CEO Anthony Haines disputes criticism of the utility's readiness for the December ice storm
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Toronto Hydro's chief executive Anthony Haines praised the job his staff company did in battling the December ice storm in a speech to the Toronto Board of Trade Monday.
But some company insiders say the storm showed serious gaps in the company's emergency systems.
And that will likely leave an outside panel appointed to judge Toronto Hydro's performance the task of sorting out competing claims.
In previous interviews with the Toronto Star's Kenyon Wallace, and in recent interviews, employees and former employees raised red flags about Toronto Hydro's effectiveness in dealing with the massive storm, that left 300,000 customers without power – most for several days, some for more than a week.
Haines defended the company's performance, given the scale of the outage.
"The proof is in the pudding," he said in an interview. "How long did it take (to restore power)? How much money did we spend? It looks like we were in pretty good shape."
(The company says it restored power to 75 per cent of customers within 48 hours of losing power; the storm cost almost $15 million.)
The concerns of company insiders, and Haines's response:
"It's a huge bottleneck," said one insider. "In a storm, it's the Achilles heel."
"The crew has to be available in the truck, instead of out repairing something. And the operator in the control room has to have a free moment from their busy work to talk to that crew.
"What you really want is the equivalent of an e-mail system, where I'm busy, you're busy, but I can pass you a message when I have a free moment, and you can read it when you have a free moment. "
A good system can pass on detailed technical information automatically, he said – such as the likeliest place to look for the problem.
An overhead line worker put it this way:
"We'd fix everything up, and you'd be sitting there waiting to close the switch to turn the power back on and you can't just close the switch, and you'd be sitting there waiting, and waiting.
"Or else when you finished a call you'd phone in and they wouldn't get back to you. You'd just sit there waiting, and waiting for your next call for an hour or two."
Haines defends the current system as the safest, to make sure that line crews don't end up working on live wires.
"I've heard stories about people waiting for some period of time," he said Monday. "But I wouldn't change it. I'm not prepared to take a shortcut and put their lives in danger…In these extreme events, you just have to recognize there'll be some inefficiency."
The panel will look into the issue and "we'll investigate if there are improvements we can make," Haines said, but "I would be loath to introduce some technology that introduced some risk."
Haines said the scale of the outage would have overwhelmed any system.
If all the call centre agents for every electric utility in the country had been working for Toronto Hydro, they would have been able to handle only half the calls that flooded in, Haines said.
Haines said that's not the case. The panel will have to sort out that black-or-white issue.
Haines says it happened, but wasn't a widespread, systemic problem. The panel will have to assess that.
David McFadden, the energy lawyer who heads the panel examining the storm, said he'd like any employees with information to come forward.
The panel has hired Davies Consulting to provide expert advice. McFadden said that comments given to Davies by employees will not be given to Toronto Hydro.
McFadden is aiming to have the panel's report completed in May.
The union representing Toronto Hydro workers is also working on a report, canvassing its members for their experiences.
John Camilleri, president of Canadian Union of Public Employees Local One, says he hopes it will be ready in April.

Popular UK e-tailer Very.com recently landed Stateside, bringing affordable Brit style—designed by the likes of Fearne Cotton—to our shores.
Last night, we headed down to NYC's Soho House to celebrate the site's American launch, where we were greeted in the library with champagne, a glittering Christmas tree and keepsake Polaroids courtesy of celeb stylist Maripol (the woman behind Madonna's Like a Virgin-era look). On hand to host the evening were Whitney Port (whose own collection Whitney Eve is stocked at Very), Nicky Hilton and designer Jeremy Scott, who raised their glasses alongside photographer Nigel Barker and DJ Leigh Lezark.
Before diving into the duck confit and bowls of roasted brussels sprouts, we got a video walkthrough of Very.com's sprawling site. Offering a mix of internationally-known brands and smaller Brit labels (plus an in-house line called Love Label), the e-commerce destination is overflowing with everything from party dresses to outerwear to lingerie. Very's also honed in on the less-explored athleticwear market: there's tons of product perfect for cycling and playing soccer (sorry, football) in. The site says that "it's time for another great British style moment." Between Middleton mania and Alexa Chung's lasting appeal, we think that time has come.
The party really got going when superstar astrologer Susan Miller made a surprise cameo just as dessert was served. We spotted Port and a clump of fashion writers locked in intense conversations with the zodiac-savvy columnist towards the end of the night. Whether they were having their 2012 fortunes mapped out or planning upcoming e-purchases, however, is anyone's guess.

[this just in from Scott Szeryk!]
Hey PreSonus!
Check this out: We are in the process of a live DVD, "Scott Szeryk Live at Aeolian Hall," from his Manifesto Tour from summer or 2012. This was recorded on the one and only StudioLive 24.4.2! Note the iPad on the mic stand, which was used for i- ear monitor mixing via SL-Remote. Totally awesome!

Coming Soon in Universal Control 1.7…
November 13,2012
PreSonus Universal Control 1.7, which will be released soon, will add three Smaart® System Analysis Wizards to Virtual StudioLive—for free! These System Analysis Wizards include a Smaart Room Analysis Wizard, Smaart Output Check Wizard, and Smaart System Delay Wizard for StudioLive™ 24.4.2 and 16.4.2 consoles.
Of course, you still get the Smaart Spectragraph and Smaart Real Time Analyzer (RTA) that were added to VSL earlier this year, and they work with all three StudioLive models.
These Smaart tools enable you to vastly improve the quality of your sound system—and your effectiveness as a live-sound engineer! You can even interface with them via StudioLive Remote on your iPad.
With these tools in your arsenal, you should probably start charging more for gigs. Just sayin'.

New YouTube Playlist: PreSonus 101
November 8,2012
There's no two ways around it: for the novice, audio is tricky business. Sometimes you just gotta get your file converted to MP3, or activate your DAW to even get rolling in the first place. I mean, you gotta crawl before you can deliberately manipulate phase cancellation to achieve psychoacoustically pseudo-surround sound on a 2.1 setup, after all.
With that in mind, we present the first set of bite-sized, barely-a-minute, just-the-facts-ma'am set of seven videos in a growing series: PreSonus 101. Learn how to activate Studio One offline, route your headphone mix from the AudioBox 1818VSL, or export a stereo mixdown of your proto-hit from Studio One Artist.

Halocene: PreSonus-Powered From the Garage to the Warped Tour
November 8,2012
Halocene has been using PreSonus since their first purchase of a FireStudio years ago. Of late they've picked up a StudioLive console, a Eureka, and Studio One Professional 2… and in-between they've opened for Jimmy Eat World and Blink-182.
Lesson learned: You don't need to be signed to a major with world-class studio access to open for a band who is. Just get some PreSonus.
Oh, also be sure to write good songs and be young and enthusiastic. That helps, too.

Quote of the year comes from Halocene's Brad Amick. "I can confidently say that 100% of every Halocene song that we've ever recorded has been through a PreSonus interface, be it the FireStudio or, lately, the StudioLive."
That's awesome. More awesomer, however, is the fact that Halocene has ownership of their entire operation. They write, produce, and record their own recordings on PreSonus gear. No big studios, no big labels, all DIY to the core… but they're nice about it. Like, really nice.
And the result? The combo of good songs, PreSonus gear, and positive attitudes has gotten Halocene some big, big shows. They've opened for Blink-182, Jimmy Eat World, and had some killer Warped Tour slots… and they did it their way. See video below for more.
What other bands do you know that get to play shows like this that own their entire operation? NOFX and Manowar are the first that come to mind for me…
Who else?

For Those About to Watch… We Salute You!

AC/DC: Beyond the Thunder, a documentary film by Kurt Squiers of SQUiERS, LLC and Gregg Ferguson of Current Motion, is about the tremendous influence rock band AC/DC has had on our culture around the globe. The two producer/directors dropped their careers in order to make this film, which pays homage to one of the greatest bands of all time in such a way that has less to do with the band members themselves, and more to do with the common bond that ties fans together around the globe.
Killer! In this clip, the filmmakers take a look at the thought processes behind music licencing for advertising, and how AC/DC's music always seems to work… almost.

Shea Michaels' new Record: Nov. 2
November 2,2012
PreSonus Artist Shea Michaels has a new record coming out… Now! He sent us a little sneak preview and talked a bit about PreSonus' role in the production of adventures of CALICO JACK, described by Michaels as "A breezy blend of country and tropical flavored southern rock," which sounds to me like the sonic equivalent of a Mai Tai alongside a shot of JD.
Hey PreSonus! Here are some of the details regarding the production of my upcoming album.
Presonus gear used:
-5 sets of PreSonus BlueTube DPs—We use these specifically as pre-amps for the drum microphones. We do not utilize the tube drive for any of the drum mics, except for the kick drum. We engage the 80Hz roll-off functions on all the others.
-PreSonus Eureka—used for direct inputs such as bass guitar and occasionally electric guitars when we feel the need to use software amp models for a certain sound a song may need. Also used as a pre-amp for drum/room mics.
PreSonus FaderPort—self explanatory!
PreSonus AudioBox USB/Presonus HD7 headphones—I used these two on song ten, on the album, which is an acoustic song titled "Didn't Take Long." This song was recorded at my writing station, in my home, using the AudioBox USB, PreSonus HD7 Headphones, Audix CX212B condenser mic, an iMac, and PreSsonus Studio One Professional 2. This is the only song on the album recorded in Studio One 2, quite frankly because the project was under way well before I downloaded a copy of the latest version. Now that I've attended PreSonsSphere (which was absolutely par excellent) I have a better understanding of this DAW. I intend on recording my next project entirely in PreSonus Studio One Professional 2.5.
The beauty of being a PreSonus user is getting access to more than one license of the software. This allows me to install Studio One 2 on my writing station and in my studio. While supplying the tools for the trade is a bonus, the heart of PreSonus literally has a strong rhythm. What else could an artist ask for than to be a part of a company that has a crew of world class musicians running the business end of it all.? This thing is groundbreaking, and about to form a few mountains. Honored to be a part of it.
Added Bonus: Shea was kind enough to share his drum microphone selection and placements!
-Kick (Beta 52) – Sound hole; off-center facing beater head
-Snare Top (SM57) – A couple of inches up angled toward center of snare
-Snare Bottom (SM81) – A couple of inches away from center toward snares; invert phase
-Hi Hat (SE Electronics SE1A) – angled about 45-degrees toward opening but not directly on opening to reduce air from closing hats
-Tom 1 (Sennheiser MD 421) – angled toward mid-center
-Tom 2 (Sennheiser MD 421) – angled toward mid-center
-Overheads – Stereo Pair in XY Configuration (Oktava MK 012 cardioid capsules) – almost directly center of drums approximately 2' or so above kit to capture more of a stereo image of drums
-Room Mic (Neumann U87) – As far from kit as possible, while allowing a couple of inches from the wall to avoid phasing issues. Trying to create a big room sound with software reverb.
Sounds good to us… but hear for yourself!

Re: Brannon Braga on the Borg in Voyager + his thoughts on the show
The whole "Chakotay died of a broken heart" meme was never actually stated. All the Admiral said was that "he was never the same after Seven's death."
Well, guess what, folks? When your spouse dies, you never are the same again. Doesn't mean you've given up on life, doesn't mean that you withdraw, doesn't mean that you're gonna die of a broken heart. It just means that you're never the same.
I was widowed 10 years ago at the age of 46. Yes, that death did change me.
ETA: As for the "it wasn't easy living all these years without her...," again I think the interpretation of one line has been taken out of context and grossly exaggerated.

December 1, 2015
The Food and Drug Administration was ordered to make emergency contraception available to women regardless of age limits.
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Edward Korman came as the result of a lawsuit brought by reproductive-rights advocates, who had sought to remove age and other restrictions on the so-called "morning after" pill.
In 2011 the Food and Drug Administration had been prepared to lift a controversial age limit and make Plan B One-Step -- the nation's first over-the-counter emergency contraceptive -- available for purchase by people of any age without a prescription. Plan B was being sold only with a prescription to those 17 and older showing an ID with proof of age.
But in December of that year Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius blocked the move, deciding that young girls shouldn't be able to buy it on their own. Sebelius said that while young girls are physically capable of bearing children, they might not properly understand how to use the emergency contraception without guidance from an adult.

"This is the third year in a row that I have created my Christmas cards with Shutterfly. The personalness of the cards make them so unique and special, and valued by the recipients.
Shutterfly generously gives an initial free offer on 10 cards, before one is even thinking Christmas and the Holiday Season. When those cards arrive, I feel like I have such a jump on the season by having Christmas cards ready to send out at the appropriate time.
The cards are of impeccable quality, hence I order more with other Special Offers. And Shutterfly is so user-friendly. It is a win-win situation.
I completely recommend doing one's Holiday cards this way!"
"The personalized Christmas Cards, with choice of layout on the inside and out, are a perfect way to share Christmas greetings for friends and family. The cards have a professional look and the photo choices help personalize the card. I have used Shutterfly personalized Christmas Cards in the past and most who recieve them have told me that my cards are "Keepers". I have received numerous compliments on the cards. Friends and Family tell me they always look forward to my Christmas cards."
"I get Christmas cards every year from Shutterfly.
I love their selection and options for their cards.
I have not been disappointed yet!"
"Exactly what I wanted and so much more! The colors were perfect and the quality of the pictures on the card turned out great! Very, Very happy with this order!!!"
"I made a few of these to see how well they would turn out and I was quite impressed. The overall quality of the pictures were in focus and matched my originals.
Shutterfly has lots of templates to choose from. Their program is easy to follow for imposing type and photos. I look forward to creating more special event cards."

It really makes your photos shine for dazzling holiday wishes.
Reviews for our Christmas Cards from our collection include
"I am very happy with our 2014 Christmas cards! This is our 1st experience w/Shutterfly & I'm thrilled! I used photo paper so it's exactly like a picture & the font I used on our 4x8 cards was 11 & 10 so it's easy to read on our cards. I chose pictures that were close-ups for the most part so it was easy to see who was in the picture but even the couple I chose that were a little further off were completely fine. Love these cards!"
"I ordered this not realizing it was foil stamped, and was afraid that the foil would be too obnoxious or sparkly. It is not. You can definitely see a "foil" effect, but it doesn't detract from the photo. The colors of the photo are rich and vibrant and it looks great!"
"Our cards arrived less than two weeks after ordering them, with plenty of time to sign them and mail them out. They are absolutely beautiful. We love them. The font size is a little larger than we expected and it looks a little off but nothing to get too concerned about. We are very pleased. I love using Shutterfly. It's easy to make calendars, cards, and books - and I'm not exactly technically savvy. I appreciate the polite and prompt email responses I get when asking questions, too. Love, love, love this website!"
"This card was absolutely beautiful; the colors were brilliant and the display of pictures were creative and perfect. I could not of had a more fantastic card. I made this card because I went to Ireland and wanted to select my favorite photos. My friend went to Ireland and so I am giving it to her for a gift for Christmas. She can frame it because it is a standard 5x7. Gifts don't have to be expensive when they are from Shutterfly!"

The Shark on the Harbor in West Ocean City. / Daily Times file photo
Jody Wright is an owner of The Shark on the Harbor. / Daily Times file photo
The water brought us here after all. Each of us. The summer visitors. The second home owners. The year-round residents. We came for the water. Fueled by a plethora of reasons but driven by similar goals. Drawn by the scent of the sea. Its unending vision and ripples of opportunity long before high rise condominiums lined the north beach and the Boardwalk connected the eastern tips of the lower streets.
Before visitors dotted the sand in efforts to steal moments of peace, fishermen left port from the West Ocean City harbor for days at a time, in search of a piece of water. The water that would yield a catch and sustain another week for their families.
Thats why Ive always referred to the commercial fishing harbor in West OC as the Essence of Ocean City a term Id adopted for this area during my early years in town. When access to this particular spot required four-wheel-drive vehicles, often filled with teenagers looking for a spot to hang out and take in the beauty of the Inlet. Again ... the water.
My husband and business partner (Chef Travis) reminded me of this as we stood on the docks one fall evening in 2007. With little warning, wed had to abandon the restaurant wed worked so hard to build. We felt empty. Delicately balanced on a foundation of sadness, dusted with a hint of peace on the horizon. A burden had been lifted, but at the expense of a looming sense of loss. Our cornerstone of stability had been so suddenly stolen, and now our future was layered with uncertainty.
This is where we belong, I told him, unclear in my own mind if I meant us personally or our restaurant. Or both.
Its the essence of Ocean City, he replied.
I felt brighter. Thats what I say!
He smiled. Where do you think I heard that?
So under the beauty of a September sky, we began again. With absolutely no idea how challenging, yet rewarding, paving a new path would be. This was our chance to do everything wed grown passion for in our line of work. Organic, sustainable food. Fish from the docks. Real food from scratch. Meals our guests could feel great about eating.
Our first step was securing our location on the harbor. Then meeting our partners in sourcing. Captain Kerry of the Sea Born. Lawrence from Quindoqua Farms and Matt and Stef from Chesterfield Heirlooms. And now, too many to name within the confines of this article. But all important.
This is where it all began again for us. And where it began for Ocean City. The essence. Many people have yet to learn about the West OC harbor. And that makes this even more joyful to share.
Jody Wright is an owner of The Shark on the Harbor in Ocean City.

The Greene County Sheriff's Office says charges have been filed against another Republic teen in connection with the death of Weston T. North, 17, of Republic.
Gabriel Luke Roche, 18, of Republic, has been charged with first-degree murder and armed criminal action, according to a news release from the department. Roche is being held in the Greene County Jail without bond.
North's body was found early Saturday morning in a ditch along a road near Republic.
A probable cause statement said North's neck had been lacerated, and the medical examiner's office determined the cause of death was multiple stab wounds.
An investigation is ongoing.
"With the help of the community and the commitment of the men and women of the Greene County Sheriff's Office, this case was brought to a successful resolution," Greene County Sheriff Jim Arnott said in the release. "It is the first step in justice for the North family."
According to the probable cause statement, detectives discovered that North had been last seen in the company of Michael Roche, the brother of Gabriel Roche, on Friday evening.
Based on information provided, deputies were able to locate both Roche brothers and a third subject walking at Lynn Street and Franklin Avenue in Springfield.
The statement said Gabriel Roche admitted the three drove North from the Walmart in Republic to the area of Farm Road 178 near State Highway ZZ, where North's body was later found. He also said he intended to kill North because he believed he was a "snitch," the statement said.
Gabriel Roche provided details about the killing, including stabbing North, who he said begged for his life, before cutting his throat, according to the statement. Those details were corroborated by Michael Roche, the statement said.

Note: not a NULL field value, but the null character (see link).
I have a column with a mix of typical and a null character. I'm trying to replace the null character with a different value. I would have thought that the following would work but it is unsuccessfull:
