FOREIGN KEY Constraints
FOREIGN KEY Constraints
A foreign key (FK) is a column or combination of columns used to establish and enforce a link between the data in two tables. A link is created between two tables by adding the column or columns that hold one table's primary key values to the other table. This column becomes a foreign key in the second table.
You can create a foreign key by defining a FOREIGN KEY constraint when you create or alter a table.
For example, the titles table in the pubs database has a link to the publishers table because there is a logical relationship between books and publishers. The pub_id column in the titles table matches the primary key column of the publishers table. The pub_id column in the titles table is the foreign key to the publishers table.
A FOREIGN KEY constraint does not have to be linked only to a PRIMARY KEY constraint in another table; it can also be defined to reference the columns of a UNIQUE constraint in another table. A FOREIGN KEY constraint can contain null values; however, if any column of a composite FOREIGN KEY constraint contains null values, then verification of the FOREIGN KEY constraint will be skipped.
Note A FOREIGN KEY constraint can reference columns in tables in the same database or within the same table (self-referencing tables), for example, an employee table that contains three columns: employee_number, employee_name, and manager_employee_number. Because the manager is an employee too, there is a foreign key relationship from the manager_employee_number column to the employee_number column.
Although the primary purpose of a FOREIGN KEY constraint is to control the data that can be stored in the foreign key table, it also controls changes to data in the primary key table. For example, if the row for a publisher is deleted from the publishers table, and the publisher's ID is used for books in the titles table, the relational integrity between the two tables is broken; the deleted publisher's books are orphaned in the titles table without a link to the data in the publishers table. A FOREIGN KEY constraint prevents this situation. The constraint enforces referential integrity by ensuring that changes cannot be made to data in the primary key table if those changes invalidate the link to data in the foreign key table. If an attempt is made to delete the row in a primary key table or to change a primary key value, the action will fail if the deleted or changed primary key value corresponds to a value in the FOREIGN KEY constraint of another table. To change or delete a row in a FOREIGN KEY constraint successfully, you must first either delete the foreign key data in the foreign key table or change the foreign key data in the foreign key table, thereby linking the foreign key to different primary key data.
A FOREIGN KEY constraint is a candidate for an index because:
- Changes to PRIMARY KEY constraints are checked with FOREIGN KEY constraints in related tables.
- Foreign key columns are often used in join criteria when the data from related tables is combined in queries by matching the column(s) in the FOREIGN KEY constraint of one table with the primary or unique key column(s) in the other table. An index allows Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 to find related data in the foreign key table quickly. However, creating this index is not a requirement. Data from two related tables can be combined even if no PRIMARY KEY or FOREIGN KEY constraints are defined between the tables, but a foreign key relationship between two tables indicates that the two tables have been optimized to be combined in a query that uses the keys as its criteria. For more information about using FOREIGN KEY constraints with joins, see Join Fundamentals.

CLASSICAL EDUCATION is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue by nourishing the soul on truth, goodness, and beauty by means of the seven liberal arts and the four sciences. Historically, classical education has followed two streams that frequently flow together:
These two emphases, which have often been in conflict historically but are not mutually exclusive, gave rise to two modes of instruction: the Mimetic and the Socratic.
Another way to define classical education might be as follows: "Classical education is the logocentric, idealistic quest to cultivate virtue in the souls of the student."
CHRISTIAN EDUCATION is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue by nourishing the soul on truth, goodness, and beauty by means of the seven liberal arts and the four sciences so that, in Christ, the student is enabled to better know, glorify, and enjoy God.
As Thomas Aquinas expressed it, summarizing the teaching of the church fathers, "Grace does not destroy nature but perfects it."
Christian classical education purifies and perfects the great achievements of the ancient Greeks and Romans. You can see this clearly in St. Augustine's writings, from the Confessions to The Teacher. It was the Progressives and Pragmatists of the 20th century that set about to undercut these achievements.
St. Irenaeus said, "The glory of God is the man fully alive."
To discuss these definitions, visit our store to acquire the conference CD's that discuss these ideas further.
AN ART as used in the "liberal arts," is a mode of producing something other than the art itself. The liberal arts are ordered to producing knowledge and therefore are the arts of thinking.
In fact, the Latin word "artes", from which we derive our word art, is their translation of the Greek word "techne," from which we derive words like technique and technology.
When a person learns an art, he directs his attention to learning a skill, not content or information about a subject (even if that subject is called "art").
The liberal arts are not, therefore, concerned with a general familiarity with a wide range of subjects. Instead, they are concerned with the foundational skills of thinking that are needed to learn any subject.
See below to learn more about these skills.
A SCIENCE is a mode of inquiry or a domain of knowing that arises from that mode of inquiry. "Science" comes from the Latin word "scientia" which means knowledge and is by no means limited to the knowledge provided by the natural sciences.
Below you will see that the sciences include the natural sciences, the humane or moral sciences, the philosophical sciences, and the science of theology. This order is rooted in the common experience of all people everywhere.
The goal of a science is to know the causes of things.
In the 17th century, natural scientists began to arrogate the use of the term science to their own inquiries, rejecting anything that stood outside their tools of investigation.
As classical educators, we reject this assertion and use the term in its more accurate and more classical sense.
THE SEVEN LIBERAL ARTS are the arts of thinking. According to the Christian classical tradition, human rationality sets them apart from other animals. In particular, humans are uniquely able to think using symbols. Those symbols include words, numbers, shapes, and musical and visual representations.
The skillful and fitting use of verbal symbols (language) is essential to the full development of our humanity. The arts developed to refine our ability to use language are the three arts of the trivium
In addition, no other animal can use numbers and shapes like we can. Even music arises from our ability to hear with our soul the relationships of numbers in their ratios and proportions. The arts developed to refine our ability to use numbers, shapes, and their relations are the four arts of the quadrivium:
These seven are called the liberal arts because they are both the arts that every free person is free to masterand the arts that are required to be free. A community that fails to master the arts of the trivium cannot be a free community. For example, he who is not a master of the art of logic is a victim of manipulators, both external (in society) and internal (in the soul), while he who is not a master of the art of rhetoric will be unable to express his thoughts appropriately.
THE TRIVIUM consists of the three verbal arts of grammar, dialectic or logic, and rhetoric. To be free the individual must be able to use language effectively and to understand it deeply.
Grammar comes from the Greek word grammatikos, which is best translated "letters" and carries all the meanings of our word letters. Grammar cultivates the skill of interpreting symbols, first, individual letters or phonemes, then words, and ultimately texts, works of art, and artifacts.
Logic or dialectics is the art of formal and material reasoning.
Formal logic asks, "How do we think correctly?" i.e. "What is the form of valid thought?"
Material Logic asks "What do we think about?" i.e. "What is the matter of thought?"
We recommend the Memoria Press materials on Formal and Material Logic by Martin Cothran as well as The Lost Tools of Writing, the CiRCE Institute writing curriculum.
Rhetoric is the art of the fitting expression, though Aristotle reduces it to the art of persuasion.
We have developed The Lost Tools of Writing as the foundation for a rhetoric program and recommend it to your consideration.
In addition, Dorothy Sayers developed a theory and application of the trivium that suggests that each art corresponds to a general stage in a child's growth. Much of the modern renewal of classical education feeds on this interpretation.
THE QUADRIVIUM consists of the four mathematical arts. To be able to reason both logically and aesthetically, the individual must be able to interact with what the ancients called magnitude (geometry and astronomy) and multitude (arithmetic and music or harmonics). The mind not trained in the quadrivium is not yet ready to be educated.
Arithmetic is the art that learns of the properties of numbers, that is, "how do numbers behave?" What happens to seven if it meets five? What will eight do if we multiply it by four?
Geometry is the art that learns the properties of shapes. It asks, "How do shapes behave?" It is essential to deductive logic and spatial reasoning.
Music is the art of ratios and proportions. It asks, "How do numbers behave in relation to each other?" Algebra is a super-efficient and abstract way of expressing musical properties. However, to fully benefit from music, it should not be reduced to algebra.
Music is the window or even the doorway between the physical and the spiritual. When a student listens to mathematically sound compositions, the order of mathematics sings directly to the soul through the ear, not needing to pass through the understanding, as it does in arithmetic.
Astronomy is the art of shapes in motion. It asks, "How do shapes behave when they are moving?" Practically, it is the doorway to physics and the sciences.
THE NATURAL SCIENCES are the sciences of the physical order, such as biology, chemistry, and physics. All other sciences either combine or refine these three.
A science is a domain of knowing ordered by a unifying principle (logos).
Biology is ordered by the attempt to know the causes of being and change within and among living things.
Physics is ordered by the inquiry into the forces that bring about change in the physical realm.
Chemistry is ordered by the inquiry into the elements of which physical things consist.
The mode of inquiry of the natural sciences is investigation into the material and efficient causes. Observation and measurement are particularly apt to this domain.
The goal of the natural sciences is to know the causes of change in the physical world so that one can act wisely and virtuously in relation to the cosmos.
THE HUMAN SCIENCES are the sciences of the moral order; that is, they are the sciences of human behavior and the soul, namely ethics and politics.
Ethics asks the question, how does a human being fulfill its potential, i.e. how does it attain excellence or its own flourishing. In a word, how does a human become virtuous. Many studies come under ethics so understood, such as psychology.
Politics asks the question, how can a human community enable its members and itself to fulfill its potential, to attain excellence, to flourish. In a word, how can a human community cultivate the virtue of its members. Studies that come under politics so understood include economics, history, etc.
Prior to the 17th century, what we now call aesthetics was a humane science, having to do with human behavior. The humane sciences are built upon but higher than the natural sciences.
The mode of inquiry suited to the humane sciences is a dialectical engagement with works of art, historical inquiry, and close reflection on the movements of the human soul.
The goal of the humane sciences is to know the causes of human behavior so that one can attain virtue in oneself and cultivate it in others.
THE PHILOSOPHICAL SCIENCES are the sciences of metaphysics and epistemology. All of the tools of the lower sciences are used for philosophical knowledge, but the unique tools of philosophical inquiry are a highly refined form of dialectics and contemplation.
The goal of the philosophical sciences is to know the causes of and limits of human knowledge and to know causality itself.
It is in metaphysics that the distinction between modernist education and classical education is most clearly seen. To the modernist, especially after Dewey, metaphysics is a waste of time because we can only know what the natural sciences reveal to us. Thus modern education is driven by experimentation and measurement.
In addition, the modernist educator has determined that knowledge is the adaptation of an organism to its environment.
The classical educator is deliberately metaphysical and does not approach philosophy with despair. He believes that the world we live in is real and that it is knowable.
Therefore, for the classical educator, knowledge is gained when the seeker encounters an idea embodied or incarnated in concrete reality.
When the modernist educator teaches, his goal is an adaptation to the environment, or what is commonly called a practical application.
When a classical educator teaches, his goal is wisdom and virtue. This will have plenty of practical applications, but it will also include the ability to know when not to adapt to the environment – when to resist it and when to be martyred by it.
The irony is that the modernist disables his student from sound practical applications because he has misrepresented reality and thereby made it difficult to adapt to it. Meanwhile, the classical educator has enabled the student to think in terms of circumstances without abandoning virtue.
THE THEOLOGICAL are the sciences concerned with knowledge of the first cause, or of God Himself. All of the tools of the lower sciences are used for theological knowledge, but the Christian recognizes that Divine Revelation reveals things that the other sciences cannot discover.
The goal of theology is to know the first cause and, as a result, to order all knowledge to that first cause.
MIMETIC (DIDACTIC) INSTRUCTION applies the Christian classical idea that humans learn and become virtuous by imitation. However, in classical theory imitation is a far cry from mere aping. When we learn by imitation, or mimesis, we experience four stages:
Mimesis is an imitation, not of the outward form, but of the inner idea – not ultimately of an action, but of the idea expressed in that action. Every art and skill is mastered through these stages, whether in school or out.
It is a modified inductive form of instruction in which students are led to understand ideas by contemplating models or types of them. These models can be found in literature, history, mathematics, the fine arts, music, other human arts and activities, and nature.
When the teacher practices Mimetic (Didactic) instruction, she naturally progresses through five stages:
Mimetic (Didactic) instruction is rooted in the idea that humans can only learn by moving from the particular (specific, concrete things) to the universal (general, abstract ideas). Since this is so, it is best to teach people "with the grain" as Dorothy Sayers expressed it.
SOCRATIC INSTRUCTION is the dialectical process of examining an idea by "deconstructing" it to find weaknesses and inconsistencies in one's understanding, and then "reconstructing" it to clarify or purify one's understanding.
These two stages are accomplished by engaging in reflective discussion (dialectics) with the student who holds an idea, not to destroy, but to purge, his understanding. This reflective discussion is accomplished through the use of penetrating questions by the leader.
The first stage of Socratic instruction is called the "Ironic" stage because it is attempting to gently reveal the errors contained in the participants understanding of the idea (for example, he might conclude that Achilles was a sissy for crying to him mommy. The teacher would not correct him by telling him the truth about Achilles, but would guide the student to reflect on his assumptions by asking him questions).
The second stage of Socratic instruction is called the "Maieutic" stage because in it the teacher attempts to "midwife" the birth of an idea in the students mind (maieutic means mid-wife). This stage can only begin when the student acknowledges his error in the first stage (metanoia – repentence). At that point, the teacher can continue to ask questions, guiding the student to see the truth he thought he knew earlier.
The clearest instance of this process in the Platonic corpus is found in the Meno, in which Socrates teachers geometry to a slave boy. We highly recommend a close analysis of that short exchange to the teacher who wishes to teach Socratically.
Both teacher and student move closer to an accurate understanding of an idea through this process.
Socratic instruction is rooted in the idea that "truth is" and that it is knowable, but that we are careless about how we go about knowing it. We draw conclusions too hastily and then apply them too widely. To mature in our reasoning, we must purify our thinking through a critical Socratic dialectic.

Baby Swing Age?
As long as the swing reclines enough for your LO, you can use it right away. We had a hand-me-down with ODD that couldn't be used until she had a resonable amount of neck control.
Ds was in his about a half hour after we got home from the hospital.
"Zombie apocalypse...all I'm saying is, you don't have to reload a machete."- ThisIsTheMostFun
right away. stopped using it at about a year old. he loved his swing.
Felicia(26) married to Aaron(32) Weston James(12/10/2009) William Jacob (7/19/2011)
We used our swing from the day we got home. The only caution is not to let them sleep in the swing w/o your constant supervision...as a newborn and lean too far over and constrict breathing.
Our baby loved the swing and was in it till we finally had to put it up a few months ago...he's almost 2 now!!!
Here we go again! Sleeps overrated anyway!
Both my kids used their swings asap. They are the best invention for some free hands.

Green Bay residents may have been greeted Sunday afternoon by an automated telephone call asking for their opinions on what the Green Bay Packers should do about Brett Favre.
The call, identified as coming from "some Packers shareholders," asked residents questions such as: if Favre came back, should he be the starting quarterback or a backup to Aaron Rodgers, or should he stay retired.
The Packers organization was not aware of the calls on Sunday and did not have any further comment, said Aaron Popkey, the Packers' corporate communications specialist.
The call stated it was attempting to survey all Green Bay residents.
The caller identification is listed as "Favre Poll," with the number (202) 552-1160.
Calls made to the listed number ask the caller if they would like to be taken off the survey list, and if so, to leave their telephone number after the tone. No other information is provided.
The Federal Communications Commission states automatic telephone dialing systems are allowed for:
The FCC also states that all artificial or prerecorded telephone messages must identify the business or individual making the call, at the beginning of the message.
The caller must also give the telephone number of the business so those receiving the call can contact them during regular business hours, according to the FCC.

Castle: Season 3 (Nathan Fillion, Stana Katic) - Discussion & Spoilers
View Single Post
March 2 2011, 05:50 PM
Locutus of Bored
I Don't Need Your Civil War
Location: Huntington Beach, California
Re: Castle: Season 3 (Nathan Fillion, Stana Katic) - Discussion & Spoi
I thought making the terrorists ex-US special forces soldiers instead of Islamists actually allowed them to explore a greater range of issues and ultimately make it a far more compelling and nuanced episode than if they had gone the stereotypical and easy route.
Think about the wide variety of ideas they touched on in this episode:
- Jumping to conclusions about Muslim persons of interest in an investigation being terrorists is wrong, but so is choosing to ignore patterns or evidence pointing in that direction in the service of excessive notions of fairness or "political correctness," as much as I loathe the abuse of the term. If they had wound up with the Syrian family being terrorists, it would have undermined the former part of the message, while the latter part was still addressed even with them being innocent.
- Seeking to understand or even empathize with a terrorist group or other enemy does not equal approval of their actions. If they had been Islamists, I think a lot of people probably would have dismissed their cause out of hand as unrelatable. Instead, they chose to have the motivation be the loss of the unity we as a nation felt after 9/11 and the fact that people have largely put the war in Afghanistan (and to a lesser extent the fact that there are still troops in Iraq) out of sight and out of mind despite soldiers still being wounded and dying there on a regular basis. That's very relatable to the viewing audience, and therefore hopefully gets at least some of them to think about extending that consideration to other issues.
- Sometimes people do things that we as laymen on the outside of the situation perceive as unnecessary or excessive, but we may not have all the facts they do. Castle and Beckett for instance wonder how many times similar incidents like this have gone down where they were the ones on the outside who were kept in the dark to prevent a panic. Is it better to have total openness and have people potentially living in a perpetual state of fear which can endanger lives and destroy economies, or to control the amount of information the public receives? I lean toward the side of the argument that favors openness except where ongoing diplomatic, intelligence, or law enforcement functions (that aren't illegal) would be compromised and place people at risk.
- Just because someone does do something we perceive as excessive or cruel (such as threatening to take away the woman's baby), doesn't mean they are cruel by nature. Adrian Pasdar's Homeland Security agent made this clear when he said he's not his job, and that ultimately what he does is in service of saving lives. I also thought it was smart having an American of Iranian descent like Pasdar play the role (plus he gave a great performance).
I thought it was a surprisingly thought-provoking, well-rounded, and dramatic episode and that going for the generic Islamist terrorist angle would have undermined the points they were trying to raise, and in addition go against the typical narrative of the show, where it's rarely the first and most obvious suspect that turns out to be the guilty one.
I was a little disappointed about the semi-copout on them being found, defrosted, and back in action so quickly, and the reset of Castle and Beckett to the relationship status quo, but those are minor points when weighed against some great acting and drama in the episode. The actress who played the Syrian woman, Pasdar, Fillion, and Katic all gave outstanding performances. Plus, you have to love Castle and Beckett's reactions to stopping the bomb at less than the last second.
- There are stories about what happened.
- It's true. All of it. TNZ, Hulk, ModMan. They're real.

A monkey could have done this "analysis". You're not really telling us anything that Captain Obvious didn't already know.
If I'm out of work I cannot update my iPhone, computer or iPad, but I will probably still want to eat - and fairly inexpensively at that. I'm sticking with McDonalds. I don't mind getting a dividend also. Apple seems to like keeping all their profits in the bank.
Who not own them both? I do.
To Jim H: If you're out of work, you're not part of Apple's market share anyway. Apple's not seeking the lower end of the market niches, neither in computers nor smartphones. Far better to make better profit margins and only sell to the top 20 - 25% of the market. Give them a much easier to use product, and computers that don't break every 2 years as my Windows E-machines and Dell computers did. It turns out from a study, despite it costs Phone Carriers more to pay Apple for each iPHONE, they make more money on it, since its returned far less often for 'warranty problems'. Now if you're a stock analyst, a higher paid nurse, a lawyer, a small business owner making good money, your time's money. Do you really want to save $200 but have a harder to use phone that's more prone to breaking? Or do you want an iPHONE?
Andrew - I've had Intel-inside, Windows computers for years - HP and Dell. The only reason I changed models was to upgrade and add bells and whistles. I've had my HP for five years and it runs like a dream. Well, the E-drive bay door doesn't open easily, but that's it. I've also had a couple of Toshiba laptops for many years with not problems at all. Again, got new smaller, lighter ones. That's all.
Great article about mcdonalds versus apple..thanking you.

1. Re: Clearing Firewall Client RulesKary Tankink Oct 11, 2010 9:25 AM (in response to NAMA)
The client rules can only be cleared by deleting them locally on the clients, and updating their node properties. In the Firewall options policy, uncheck the "Retain client rules" option. When the policy gets enforced on systems, it will clear away any local rules and enforce only what's in the ePO policy.
2. Re: Clearing Firewall Client RulesSpork Oct 11, 2010 1:44 PM (in response to Kary Tankink)
Another item worth while mentioning is if you have the "Enable adaptive mode (rules are learned automatically)" setting selected, you will just recreate the client side rules again. Then when the policy enforcement takes place the client side rules would be removed only to be re-learned again.
I hope this helps.

IP rights in data
The importance of data cannot be overstated. A report published in November 2013, by the Economist Intelligence Unit, stated that close to one in three global executives believe that data alone comprises 10–50 per cent of the total assets of their organisation, while one in 10 believed the figure to be more than 50 per cent. However, in legal terms, data is somewhat nebulous — it is more accurate to speak of the different kinds of rights that may arise 'in relation to' data, rather than simply of rights 'in' or 'to' data.
Copyright, database right, confidentiality and trademarks are all relevant when considering how data could be protected. Each right has its own separate body of law and has different requirements as to when the right subsists and when infringement occurs. The analytical complexity is compounded as a result of the growing importance of data to businesses, especially to global organisations, and the fact that intellectual property (IP) rights are primarily national rights, so the laws on each right tend to differ from country to country.
The layered nature of the analysis of IP rights relating to data, together with the unclear state of English law, means that data remains an area where commercial protection is often best ensured through robust contractual mechanisms to limitation use of the data in question, for example methods of use, geographical scope, industry sectors, creation of derivative works, internal/external use and any other constraints applicable to the data in question…

im switching to SC2...
This group was made to talk about the upcoming cnc4. give us for thoughts about it.
This is some more info that we got from Commandcom
Posted by xonone on Aug 22nd, 2009
Lots of information emerged from GamesCom/CommandCom concerning the gameplay details of Command and Conquer 4. Below is a quick list of those details, but expect to see a more in-depth hands-on impression of the game.
- Crawlers can respawn, but there is a 1 minute respawn time
- Crawlers respawn by coming down in a large drop pod that destroys any units underneath it
- Can only respawn in designated areas
- Crawlers have a cargo bay that can only hold 4 units by default, but can be expanded to hold more through upgrades.
- You can build units as your crawler is moving around, and they will be stored in the cargo bay. When you deploy your crawler, those units will come out as long as they have finished building
- Crawlers can crush enemy units, but take damage as they do
- Provide a large healing/repair radius
- Can be upgraded with various weapons to enhance combat effectiveness
- Respawning as a different class/crawler will destroy all existing units produced by the previous class/crawler
- Support class isn't just support, can hold its own as a stand-alone class. Takes less damage overall
- Offense class is more micro-intensive, designed for aggressive gameplay, heavier hitting units
- Defense class can build defense structures, shield structures etc, builds infantry
- Originally 5 classes: Assault, Heavy, Raider, Defense, Support
Gameplay Modes
- Domination Mode is the default (and the only one revealed so far)
- Each map has 5 goal structures that can be controlled
- The more you control, the faster you reduce the opposing team's strategic points
- Each team starts with 1000 strategic points, first to 0 is the loser
- You cannot regain points, you only lose them
- Match length is currently limited to 60 minutes, but will be adjusted based on testing feedback
Different Ways To Play
- Player vs Player (PVP)
- Player vs Environment (i.e. online Comp stomp)
- Skirmish (offline comp stomp)
- Custom match (different settings)
- Automatching is based on skill and "ladder" ranking (ELO style), not based on level
- You can form temporary parties that let you stick together when automatching
- More permanent clans can be formed
- EA can now detect who disconnects
- Disconnecting results in zero XP gain during that match, and any further action EA deems appropriate
Player Progression
- Skill impacts the game far more than levels
- Unlocking units grants you access to more specialized units, not super strong "kill everything" units
- Level 50 vs Level 0 is NOT as one-sided as one would think. Again, skill matters more.
- You can unlock everything from units, to upgrades to more structures (for defense class)
- You level up your FACTION, not individual classes. That is, when you play as GDI, you gain GDI-only XP that can be used across all three of your classes. GDI XP cannot be used to enhance your NOD profile etc.
- There is no tiberium, harvesters, gathering, or money of any shape or form
- The "resources" are the strategic command points that each team starts with. You remove these points from the opposing team by capturing and controlling the goal structures on the map
- Goal structures automatically reinforce themselves the longer you hold onto them
- You control these goal structures by keeping units near them. The more units, the faster you capture them.
- EA is experimenting with some form of separate resource gathering and spending
Misc Details
- Each class has an "epic" unit. For example, GDI Offense gets the Mastadon, which is essentially the Mammoth Mk II from Tiberian Sun
- Some units have ammo limits that require them to wait before they reload
- Flame tank causes residual burn damage over time
- Engineer can capture husks of units (for example, old GDI Mammoth Tanks), and can heal/repair units at a short range
- There are approximately 50 command points per player in 5v5, which translates to about 10 units that you can control. The fewer players there are, the more command points there are per player
- Combat lethality is very low
- Movement speed is slow-average
- There are three tech levels that you upgrade to via the crawler
- Un-upgraded crawlers are easier to kill than the epic units from Kane's Wrath, and don't do as much damage.
im switching to SC2...
Starcraft was Always BETTER!
me too!
wow, i think i'm ganna switch games, this doesn't seem like C&C anymore... no money? no harvesting? what has EA done with this franchise other then crash it 6 feet under?
No Harvesting....damn!
this cant be true!!!
it's not command and conquer any more!!!
EA is making A very big fault!
its to sad a tiberium game without harvesting :(
Is is this even CnC? maybe u took the info from some other game? And is it me or do the crawlers have "NOOB CITY" written all around them?
Like wtf? 1min respawn, u can just spam walkers :/
repair heal crush :/ I thought maybe it was going to be a good game, but when crawlers showed up, yhough umm that aint rly ok, but I can live with it, now no harvesting, no tibium, money nothing, just capturing CP's like in any other ordinary every day strategy game, damn thats lame :/
cnc4 is starting to sound like WIC if you can ask me.
World in conflict. Moddb.com its a nice game. i play it alot. you get 4000 points to get units. You dont harvest and you capture command points to win.

Printer doesn't use last 25% of ink in cartridge
My HP Officejet 6500A e-All-in-One Printer - E710a does not use the last 25% of ink in the cartridges.
Re: Printer doesn't use last 25% of ink in cartridge
What exactly are you saying - that the cartridge runs out whileubdicating there is still 25% ink remaining, or that the low on ink indicator indicates the ink is low but there is actually 25% remaining?
I suspect the latter - the ink indicator lets you know when the ink is getting low so you can have time to have a replacement on hand. You can continue to print until the cartridge actually runs out, see the document here which says:
"NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When an indicator shows low ink levels, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace cartridges until prompted to do so."

Re: Printer doesn't use last 25% of ink in cartridge
With 25% showing on the program indicator and the cartridge actually having a lot of ink, the printer stops using that particular color and I have to throw cartridges with approximately 25% of the ink remaining away.

For the second time in five months, a west metro City Council is asking its mayor to resign, stripping him of his city salary and almost all his duties.
In the unprecedented censure approved Monday, Maple Plain's four City Council members unanimously approved eliminating Mayor Roger Hackbarth's $350 monthly pay and restricting him from serving on any commissions, chairing meetings and attending special meetings where confidential information is shared.
"We wanted to take deeper measures to show … that we're serious. He can't go on like he does," acting Mayor Jerry Young said Tuesday. "No city has done this before."
In the censure, the City Council members said Hackbarth, 71, has continued to "behave unprofessionally, with angry outbursts toward council members and staff," and displays "demeaning and degrading" behavior toward city staff in Maple Plain, a suburb 20 miles west of Minneapolis.
"He's not effectively leading the city," Council Member Justin McCoy said Tuesday.
The council also wrote that residents and business owners complained about Hackbarth's "abusive and negative behavior" and he hasn't adhered to rules the council put in a censure last March — the city's first censure. In it, they limited him from serving on most committees, boards, commissions or associations and prohibited him from contact with a city employee without another employee present. They cited his vulgarity, "extreme anger" and said he created an "unsafe and unfriendly" atmosphere after a female employee's complaint that he behaved inappropriately, demanding hugs and claiming he loved her.
An outside investigator determined that Hackbarth acted inappropriately toward the employee. However, no civil or criminal charges were filed.
Hackbarth didn't attend Monday's meeting and didn't return messages Tuesday from the Star Tribune. But this year, he told a local newspaper, the Pioneer, that a small group has been determined to "get rid of" him since he was elected.
In 2012, he won the mayoral election by 67 votes, ousting an incumbent after serving as a council member for six years in Maple Plain (pop. 1,800). No other formal complaints have been filed and he has a clean criminal record, according to public records. His four-year term ends in 2016. The city says he makes $350 each month and $25 for additional meetings.
In nearby Maple Grove, the City Council approved a censure earlier this year of Council Member LeAnn Sargent, after she was sentenced on a gross misdemeanor for financially exploiting her dying father.
A censure isn't a legal charge, but it shows public disapproval. Most Minnesota cities don't have the authority to recall or otherwise remove an elected official; they can only be disqualified from office if they're convicted of a felony.

Well Region G is a great unit. It took 3 points in the Special draw to get that tag last year so you would be a shoe in. Region G can and has produced large Muleys for a very long time. Give or take a few seasons, that's why it's so popular. You have about a month long season between the northern and southern part of the Region.
I believe it's as good as any.
I put in with 2 points on the special draw. Last year it was 69% so we'll see what happens. What kind of hunt are you looking for? Town hunt? Base camp and hunt from there? Backpack in for a few days? Outfitter drop camp with horses? Fully Outfitted?

Batman Arkham Origins (NA)
Third party DRM: SteamThis game requires a free Steam account to play.
Also Available:
"In Arkham Origins we join Batman in his angsty teenage years. He's not the stoic, Kevin Conroy-voiced Batman of Asylum and City, who calmly asks criminals to turn themselves in before he beats them up, but a hot-headed, teeth-baring vigilante who punches first and asks questions later." - PCGamer.com
"Batman: Arkham Origins is a low point for the series, but even when it's not very good, it's still pretty good." - IGN.com
Batman: Arkham Origins™ is the next installment in the blockbuster Batman: Arkham videogame franchise.

An OK Prequelvinkvin | Oct. 7, 2015 | See all vinkvin's reviews »
Batman Arkham Origins is the third installment of the Batman Arkham series and the pre-quel story of Batman Arkham Asylum, and was developed by a different team than the first two games. Although I must say that Batman AO is inferior compared to its predecessors gameplay-wise but still pretty good story-wise. I recommend you to play Batman AO if you are a fan of the Batman Arkham series, and I FULLY recommend you to get the Cold - Cold Heart DLC since its got a really good and interesting story, as well as the bad*** new suit , TL,DR; I still quite enjoyed playing Batman AO, but I don't feel the solid gameplay that I got when I played the previous installments. Pros: + GOOD gameplay, but somehow I felt that AO has an awkward feel and controls compared to its predecessor. + GOOD story. + GOOD fighting system. Free Flow Combat with this new feature () is a huge fun. + GOOD array of gadgets, allowing you to takedown enemies with your own style. + GOOD sound. + GOOD atmosphere. + GOOD graphics, better than the previous games. + GREAT characters and voice acting, the characters really felt like they are coming right out of the comics. + Detective Mode Case Reconstruction is a fun new feature, but could be done better. + Dark Knight System is a good addition as well, but is implemented poorly, especially the Predator System. + Batwing drop system, allowing us to Fast Travel to certain points in Gotham City. Cons: - The controls feel a bit awkward and clunky. - Most areas are just copied from Batman Arkham City maps. - More collectibles, but less Riddles. - Gotham City is a huge city, but the lack of any civilians feels weird to me. All I see are thugs. Is this Gotham City? or Arkham City, where all its inhabitants are criminals? - Dark Knight System Challenges should be able to be done in ANY ORDER, to avoid any missable challenge(s). - Missable predator challenge, because some of them can only be done in certain maps of the STORY mode. This is seriously annoying, especially because this game uses autosave system. Imagine if you forgot to do a 1 predator challenge, progress through the story, autosaving and BAM you just missed the opportunity because its the only area where you can do the challenge. - Less polished, Batman AO still has many bugs, such as: -> gliding achievement sometimes not triggered, it takes a few tries. -> sometimes after the Riddler Informant was interrogated, NO new collectibles are marked on the map, and then you must run around to find ANOTHER Riddler Informant. -> sometimes predator challenges are not counted when the conditions are met, but sometimes counted when the conditions are not met. I know, I am confused as well... Overall: 80/100
A worthy Installmentmlefoo | Sept. 30, 2015 | See all mlefoo's reviews »
So this installment of the series was not done by its creator, rocksteady, and that is noticeable. While the game itself is not bad, its just not as good as the first two. The plot takes what i felt was an unneeded twist, and thus makes the plot a little weaker in my opinion. The new way of solving a crime scene is ok, but not great. In fact, sometimes the conclusions that are made seem to come out of thin air, making the audience believe it cause "he's batman, of course he can figure it out no problem." there are a few glitches here and there and some places with some serious frame rate issues (for me at least), but all in all it is a fun and playable game. I would recommend to batman fans of lovers of the first two games.
Same as city but with a new storyjet300 | Sept. 11, 2015 | See all jet300's reviews »
Expect nothing new in this game other than its story. Its not a bad game nor a amazing one but if you like the arkham city it adds to the story. It has some really cool references to the origins of joker and it also focuses a bit on bane. Not a must have but decent addition to this world.
Nothing new to the Arkham table, but a good additionMclovinTubby | July 24, 2015 | See all MclovinTubby's reviews »
This game typically doesn't get acknowledged much compared to the others in the series, for a couple of reasons... Despite the gameplay being just as smooth and quick as usual (with a few weird glitches that aren't really game-breaking), there isn't exactly much new to the table, besides a few gadgets such as the shock gloves which can be pretty cheap most of the time. The selling point of this game seems to be the boss fights, which are certainly a lot better than Arkham Knight's. The story is pretty decent, not a lot of surprises or interesting moments, but it's okay for an origin story. Multiplayer is a new addition to the series, but is also just a buggy mess most of the time and could've been handled a lot better. Overall it's an okay addition to the franchise.
An ok addition to a great franchise.chcoman123 | July 21, 2015 | See all chcoman123's reviews »
I love the Batman Arkham games, but this one just feels like it was just...ok. Honestly the biggest problem with it is that it never truly feels like a Batman game at any point. The gameplay is still the same great gameplay, but nothing was done to mke it new or refreshing. Plus the electrocutioner gloves that you get late into the game makes combat pitifully easy. The graphics are also very muddy. Too many white and grey colors, and pretty much nothing else throughout the game. And the story just feels...boring. There's really not a hwole lot to it. It's good for maybe 5 to 10 dolalrs, but that's about it. ALSO THEY WASTED DEATHSTROKE! HOW DARE THEY!

Jet Airways Flies High on All Social Network Websites While Air Asia India Sees Record Growth on Facebook PR Newswire CHENNAI, December 17, 2013 CHENNAI, December 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Airlines Are Turning Social Media Into the Next Generation Customer Support Channel The aviation industry across the world has turned to social media as customer expectations and demands from airlines change and evolve. The aviation industry in India is growing, despite some turbulence, and has rapidly evolved its own social strategy to keep up with the modern traveler. (Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131217/10085110 ) Unmetric, the company that asks whether brands are social enough, looked at the social media habits of top Indian aviation brands and international airlines with an Indian presence on major social platforms. In total, 10 airlines were analyzed. The analysis found that on Facebook, all 10 brands have an active presence, seven are using Twitter, two are on YouTube and two have a presence on Pinterest. Amongst the aviation brands included in the analysis, Jet Airways and SpiceJet are the only airlines present on all four platforms. On Facebook, Jet Airways received the highest Unmetric score of 49. The Unmetric score is the first ever sector aware social media benchmark score normalized to 100, withvarious qualitative and quantitative metrics to rank a brand against competitors. Jet Airways also commands the largest fan base on Facebook with close to 1,140,000 fans, followed by SpiceJet which has close to 530,000 fans. The Air Asia India account saw a growth rate of 37% which is the highest growth rate of a brand in the period analyzed and looks like a statement of intent from India's newest airline. Air Asia India has consistently seen high growth rates throughout the year, which is an indication of the anticipation in the market for this new airline, and is on track to have one of the largest fan bases in the sector. Lufthansa India posts the most on Facebook, with a total of 98 updates in the period analyzed which is an average of approximately one post per day. When compared to the global aviation sector, it was found that most airlines have a much higher frequency of posting updates and have seen positive responses. To understand how well these brand updates were resonating with the respective communities, Unmetric used the Engagement Score which is calculated based on the number of Likes, Comments, Shares and Estimated Impressions that each post receives. The Engagement Score enables quick comparison, regardless of the number of fans a page has. The airline that received the highest average engagement was Air India with an engagement score of 261, which is well above the sector average of 72 and well above Lufthansa India, which scored 23, despite posting the most updates. Taking a look at the content strategy of Air India, its posts are most frequently about the brand. Of the 43 posts by Air India, 30 talked about the brand. An example of a post of this nature would usually revolve around frequent flyer programs, contests, announcement or air fare deals.Further analysis concluded that all airlines post more frequently about themselves, and receive high engagement when they do. On Twitter, just seven airlines were found to be active with Jet Airways coming out on top again with an Unmetric score of 33. Jet Airways has the largest number of followers, with 44,000 followers but KLM ranks first in terms of growth rate, growing its follower base by 22%. Twitter isn't just another place for brands to post their updates; it's quickly becoming a new frontier for brands to provide customer support. In this respect, it was found that Jet Airways replies to most tweets with a total of 884 replies (out of 2,585 mentions) in an average of 20 hours and 30 minutes per tweet. While Jet Airways came out on top with the most replies, SpiceJet tweets the most on Twitter, with total of 229 proactive tweets along with 641 replies and had a reply time of 7 hours and 30 minutes. Not every airline in India is choosing to provide customer support on Twitter though with Air India and Air France not replying to a single tweet during the time period analyzed. Turkish Airlines India replies the fastest on Twitter with an average reply time of 21 minutes and but it only replied to 6 tweets. Taking a look at the hashtags used by Jet Airways, the hashtags #avgeek, #aviation and #photography have been used the most by users and the brand. The #avgeek hashtag was used 16 times by the brand and 167 times by users and is used by followers to submit pictures they take of Jet Airways aircraft. The peak usage of the #avgeek hashtag was on August 5 ^th where it was used over 20 times in one day. Jet Airways also tweets the least on Sundays, but receives the most amount of engagement on that day. Only two airlines were found to be present on YouTube, SpiceJet and Jet Airways. Both airlines are tied with an Unmetric score of 15. SpiceJet saw a video view growth rate of 2.8% in the period analyzed and has uploaded 12 videos since it has joined YouTube in 2009. The "Jet Airways Book Online TVC" is the most watched video on the Jet Airways YouTube channel with 380,000 views and was so popular that 80% of the views the channel received comes from this one video. The average length of a video uploaded by Jet Airways is close to 5 minutes and is more than twice the average length of a video uploaded by SpiceJet which is close to 2 minutes. Pinterest is a social network based around scrapbooking images found on the Internet, is yet to see significant traction in India. However, it was found that once again Jet Airways and SpiceJet lead social media adoption and have a presence on this new social network. Jet Airways saw an Unmetric Score of 17 on its Pinterest account where it has 15 boards and 329 followers. The board that received the most number of pins was the "Fan-O-graphy" board on Jet Airways' Pinterest page. Followers were encouraged to upload pictures to the board and received 68 pins. The board that saw the highest repins to pins ratio is the "JetStinations" board, which received 26 pins and 107 re-pins to make a repins to pins ratio of 4.11.

Prosecutor Brings Fresh Evidence at Pistorius Hearing
PRETORIA, South Africa—The state prosecutor and lawyers representing Oscar Pistorius presented fresh evidence and questioned each other's claims Wednesday, as the bail hearing for the South African Olympic sprinter accused of murdering his girlfriend ground through a second day.
Calling on the judge to deny bail for Mr. Pistorius, 26, the state brought new evidence aimed at contradicting an affidavit from Mr. Pistorius that gives his take on what happened in the early hours of Feb. 14, when his 29-year-old girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, was shot and killed while she was in a bathroom at Mr. Pistorius's home.
Mr. Pistorius says he fired four shots through the closed bathroom door because he thought a burglar was inside. He has said he had no intention of killing Ms. Steenkamp, a model and aspiring actress.
State prosecutor Gerrie Nel had said on Tuesday that Mr. Pistorius "shot and killed an unarmed woman" and he would argue the track star committed premeditated murder, a crime that commands a life sentence in prison.
The defense has been raising questions about the quality of state's evidence. The judge will make a decision whether to grant Mr. Pistorius bail, after closing arguments Thursday.
Mr. Pistorius is one of South Africa's most celebrated athletes, known as the "blade runner" for the J-shaped carbon-fiber prosthetic legs he used on the track. He was the first disabled runner to compete against able-bodied athletes in the London Olympics.
Mr. Pistorius sat quietly through the court hearing Wednesday, as family members occasionally leaned over to rub his shoulder. He was more composed than previous court appearances, when he sobbed uncontrollably. But as his lawyers and the prosecutor retraced the events of Thursday morning using a diagram of his bedroom and bathroom, he broke into tears.
Chief investigating officer, Hilton Botha, said the shooting of Ms. Steenkamp "can't be" self-defense, adding "I believe he knew she was in the bathroom and fired four shots in the door."
Mr. Botha said he arrived at Mr. Pistorius's Pretoria home at 4:15 a.m. Thursday to find Ms. Steenkamp dead on the floor on the ground level covered in towels.
He said Ms. Steenkamp had been hit by a bullet on the right side of her head above her ear, on her right elbow and her right hip while she was inside the bathroom upstairs.
Mr. Botha also disclosed statements from two witnesses saying they heard what sounded like a fight at Mr. Pistorius's home early Thursday. Mr. Botha said one witness, a neighbor who he said lives between 300 meters and 600 meters away from Mr. Pistorius's home, heard fighting between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m.
Mr. Botha said another witness heard several gunshots fired.
The chief investigator told the court that his team found two boxes of testosterone and needles, banned in many sports, during their search of the house Thursday.
But on cross-examination by Mr. Pistorius's lawyer, Barry Roux, Mr. Botha said he could have misread the label and would need to see a photo to be sure.
Mr. Roux said police had found not testosterone, but a herbal remedy, testoconpasutium coenzyme, which isn't banned and is used by other athletes.
Mr. Pistorius's lawyer, Mr. Roux, attacked the evidence laid out piece by piece.
Mr. Roux also said the investigation team hadn't put on protective footwear when walking through the crime scene, alluding that there could have been contamination.
And as for the witness statements, the time when they claimed they saw lights on and heard noises match what Mr. Pistorius said in his affidavit, Mr. Roux said.

Re: Why were ships so fragile in DS9
I guess ships that are not specifically identified, like people, tend to get the 'red-shirt' treatment
In addition, other aspects of space battles in Trek are silly: Ships make huge bank turns in order to change course when, with their technology, they should be able to simply flip around; ships in battle should also be able to jump to and fro quickly instead of plodding around like whales while fleets have this strange determination to fly same-side up as everyone else; I just suspend disbelief and pretend they're all flying around in an atmosphere since they seem to think so. I also assume that ships crewed by named characters have special "important main cast" shielding.

The battery light come on when you first start it and gose out. Then after under 3 minutes. It comes back on. Have replaced the battery and the alternator, and dont have poower going from the alternator to the battery. Have power in the wire for about 2 seconds then it gone in the wires from alternator to the battery.
can you tell me what the problem is.
can you tell me what the problem is.

August 25, 2011.
If you're referring to the small wires on the back of the alternator, there should be voltage there for one second after turning on the ignition switch, then again during engine rotation, (cranking or running). The system can be diagnosed by measuring those two voltages while the engine is running. One will have full battery voltage. The other one must have less but not 0 volts. 4 - 11 volts is typical. If it's 0 volts, the brushes are worn. That is often intermittent so you have to check it while the problem is acting up. If you find exactly the same voltage on both wires, there's an open circuit between the second brush and the voltage regulator in the Engine Computer.
Also check for battery voltage at the output terminal when the engine is not running. If you find 0 volts there, the large bolt-in fuse in the under-hood fuse box is blown.

Ok thats checked, what else can I try the alternator is good battery is good, we are at a loss here. What else can we try. The alternator still is not charging the battery.

Two more Vanderschaaf ventures head to bankruptcy
Two more companies connected to Murfreesboro builder Clair Vanderschaaf are seeking Chapter 11 protection.
Subdivision Rivers Edge of Rutherford lists four creditors owed more than $2.2 million. Two of them – Claude and Wayne Phillips – are each owed $1.017 million. Rivers Edge's filing lists assets between $1 million and $10 million.
Manchester JBJ J.V. lists just two creditors – Patricia Vanderschaaf and Rutherford Bank & Trust. Patricia Vanderschaaf is owed $447,000. Rutherford Bank & Trust, which has since been absorbed into Green Bankshares, has a claim of $1.5 million, according to the filing.
Vanderschaaf & Vanderschaaf – which does business as Rockvale Meadows Partners – filed for bankruptcy in December and the filing indicated the failure of Rivers Edge was a key factor in the earlier filing. A hearing on converting Vanderschaaf & Vanderschaaf's Chapter 11 to Chapter 7 is scheduled for Tuesday. Pinnacle National Bank has requested the so-called "death penalty" motion seeking liquidation.
Another Vanderschaaf venture, Three Rivers Properties, filed for bankruptcy in June following a March foreclosure.
Paul Williams of Murfreesboro is the attorney for all of the bankruptcies.
