Reviews for Might and Magic: Heroes VI Deluxe Edition
Best Heroes of recent timesCynaris | Aug. 1, 2012 | See all Cynaris's reviews »
Turn Based Strategy lovers, attention, Heroes is back. Heroes VI goes back to it's roots with some twists to the core gameplay that makes feels like steps in the right direction. One of the new additions to the game is the Area of Control system, that let's you keep your mines in the area of your towns and forts. Unless your local town/fort is captured, these mines cannot be taken by the enemy, only occupied by a stationing a hero next to it. The way Town Portals work also changed, there are two different TP spells, one that brings you back to the closest town with built in TP, and one that the next day let's you travel between your towns. It makes the game quite strategic, and less frustrating. The game also has RPG elements, and features a persistent online profile called Dynasty, which you level up, purchase heroes, avatars, traits, any many other content for the points you earn through achievements. It is an enjoyable adition to the game. Dynasty weapons are also leveling when used, giving beneficial attributes to your hero. Graphics are impressive and very well done, and so are the animations. Soundtrack goes back to earlier games, reorchestrating tunes from Heroes 2, 3, 5, as well as composing new beautiful music. The feared Ubisoft DRM is still an annoyance though, it needs to be fixed, as it can make the game unplayable. However when it is working, it's an incredible TBS. The Deluxe edition has additional and worthwhile content to enjoy, such as the soundtrack, artworks, all in digital format of course.

Denim by PV
15 Jun. 2010
DENIM BY PV ATTENDANCE UP 34%Denim by Première Vision recently concluded its sixth edition, breaking all prior attendance records with 1,990 visitors. This represents a 34% increase in visitors from a year ago. International visitors, which now account for two-thirds of all entries, rose 39%, while the number of visitors from France increased 24% to 667, marking the show's growing international appeal.
Italy sent the largest contingent of buyers to the show after France, and was followed by the United Kingdom, Turkey and Germany. The Netherlands (+29%) and Belgium (+97%), in 6th and 9th positions respectively, further confirmed the importance of denim in Northern Europe. There was from the region also a surge in the number of Swedish buyers (+73.5%), and equally noteworthy was the growing turnout by US visitors, whose numbers rose 66%.
Visitors included a prominent array of international retailers and brands such as Abercrombie, & Fitch Acne, A/X Armani Exchange, Burberry, Carhatt, Célio, Citizens of Humanity, CK Jeanswear, Diesel, G-Star, H&M, Ikks, Le Temps des Cerises, Levi Strauss, Mango, Marc Jacobs, Marithé & François Girbaud, NU, Pepe Jeans, Polo Ralph Lauren, Top Shop, Urban Outfitters, Wrangler and Zara.
While enlarging its offer this session to include major operators in the sector (new exhibitors accounted for 12% of the total exhibitor count), Denim by Première Vision remained focused on its core business. Of the 70 exhibitors coming from 18 countries, 62% were weavers, 24% were manufacturers/launderers, 10% accessory makers and 1% fiber producers and dyers, with each sector counting within its ranks most of the field's major players.

Releasing beneficial wasps in New York orchards
An insect called the oblique-banded leafroller (OBLR) is a very costly pest of apples in New York. Its immature life stages feed on apple blossoms and on developing fruit. Many OBLR-damaged apples drop from the trees prematurely; a small percentage remain on the trees, but these develop deep, corky scars and indentations.
Growers with orchards heavily infested with OBLR can experience 5 to 10 percent fruit injury, even when they have applied multiple sprays of the most effective insecticides available. In 1996 New York apple growers as a group lost $2.7 million in revenues because of fruit sales thwarted by OBLR damage. Finding an effective means of managing OBLR, which has developed resistance to many chemical treatments, will be a tremendous coup for the New York apple industry.
Last summer Harvey Reissig and Jan Nyrop, Cornell entomologists, investigated the potential for biological control of OBLR by a wasp called Trichogramma platneri, which feeds on leafroller egg masses but is harmless to people and livestock. The wasps were released in large numbers in both a commercial orchard and an unsprayed, research orchard. Rates of parasitism of OBLR egg masses by the wasps were recorded for several weeks.
The wasps' effect on OBLR damage varied. Leafroller damage to McIntosh and Cortland apples at the research orchard was 50 to 70 percent lower than in plots where no wasps were released. But damage in the Delicious apples in the same orchard was not at all reduced by T. platneri. In the commercial orchard, damage was reduced by 10 percent in Jerseymacs, but the wasps seem to have had no effect in the Cortland plots.
The wasps alone are not likely to provide adequate management in orchards heavily infested by OBLR. But using beneficial wasps in combination with other control methods could well enable New York apple growers to reduce insecticide applications for leafrollers by 30 to 50 percent. Replacing standard insecticides with the wasps may also enhance the development of biological control of mites.

Zan Periculi (or "Pericule[s]") was a species of flowering plant native to Lappa IV, a Ferengi planet. It produced bunches of yellow blossoms which are less than fragrant.
DaiMon Tog presented a bouquet of pericules to Lwaxana Troi while attempting to court her in 2366. Lwaxana tossed them in a nearby lake. Following Tog's abduction of Lwaxana and Deanna Troi and William T.

America's Evolving Role in a Changing Asia
January 28, 2009
Earlier this month, I visited three capitals in Southeast Asia – Bangkok, Phnom Penh, and Hanoi – to present the latest in a series of reports on America's Role in Asia, produced each U.S. presidential election year by The Asia Foundation.
The report was not easy to summarize. It contains chapters on no fewer than eight countries and sub-regions (Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan), plus seven additional chapters on key functional issues (trade, security, alliances, the environment, energy, terrorism, and regional architecture). All the chapters incorporate individual insights on trends in the region, as well as numerous detailed recommendations on policy. The report also reflects a few differences of opinion, both among the Asian participants and between the American and Asian contributors, especially with regard to questions involving regional architecture.
But the main purposes of the project – to identify the key trends in the region, and to make policy recommendations to the incoming U.S. administration – provided a structure for my summary. Within that broad framework, I found that there was a remarkable degree of consensus on six major trends, and on ten broad policy recommendations. That consensus is presented below, although I have also indicated a few places where the contributors had different views, and where I have somewhat contrasting opinions of my own.

News 12 @ 6 o'clock / Friday, July 4, 2014
South Carolina DNR says they see more boats out on July 4th than any other holiday. So, if you're out on Lake Thurmond or the Savannah River this weekend, you won't be out there alone. DNR says they've got all hands on deck to make sure that you stay safe.
Brent Emerson has been boating on Lake Thurmond for around fifteen years now, but this year, he's noticed a lot more people out there with him. "Seems like there is a lot more people out here this year than last year, seems like a lot more boat activity," he said.
It's not just other boaters on the water, it's law enforcement too. DNR is out on the water inspecting boats and trying to keep everyone safe. They're mainly looking for three things, life jackets, fire extinguishers, and your boating registration.
First Sergeant Daniel Baker with South Carolina DNR says, it's not just for you. Sometimes that equipment will be used to help out other boaters.
And on a busy weekend like this, when an accident is more likely to happen, DNR is hoping their presence makes an impact.
"I feel like our job is that those who are out there that want to have a good time that are doing everything right and being safe, our job is to ensure that no one comes in and interferes with that," said Baker.
Folks like Emerson are happy about that. "It's good for them to be out there and just keep everyone safe," Emerson said.
But while DNR looks out for you, they ask you look out for everyone else. "Don't just look out for yourself this weekend, look out for others, because you never know when you're gonna cross that person who just bought a boat and it's their first time on the water," said Baker.
DNR plans to be busy on the lake through Sunday. The main thing they say for you to do is just to be aware. Tomorrow from 10:00 AM til 2:00 PM they will have boat checks at Scotts Ferry to help ensure that.

Moscow's Mercury City Tower Crowned the Tallest Building in Europe
Posted By Lidija Grozdanic On November 5, 2012 @ 5:11 pm In Announcements,Architecture,Gallery | 1 Comment
Moscow's new Mercury City [2] skyscraper is still under construction, but it just broke 339 meters in height this September – making it the tallest building [3] in Europe! The tower designed by Mikhail Posokhin and Frank Williams [4] is part of a large-scale construction project for one of Moscow's emerging financial districts, and it has eclipsed Renzo Piano's Shard Skyscraper [5] in London by 29 meters
With 40 stories of offices and luxury apartments situated at the top, the Mercury City tower perfectly represents the Russian ambition to keep pace with contemporary European architecture. Building analyst Emporis [6] reports that the construction boom taking place in Moscow can be credited to the significant decline of building regulations [7] in the city as well as increased interest from Russian and foreign investors in large-scale building enterprises. The tower, planned to be inaugurated in 2013, won't maintain its position as Europe's highest building for long, since there are several taller skyscrapers [8] in Russia already under construction.
The tallest building in the world is currently SOM's Burj Khalifa [9] in Dubai at 828 meters – about 500 meters higher than Mercury City. Now that Russian high-rise architecture has broken into the game, the race for the tallest building has another strong contestant.

OBJECTIVE To assess the association between antidepressant medicine use and risk of developing diabetes during the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) and Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study (DPPOS).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS DPP/DPPOS participants were assessed for diabetes every 6 months and for antidepressant use every 3 months in DPP and every 6 months in DPPOS for a median 10.0-year follow-up.
RESULTS Controlled for factors associated with diabetes risk, continuous antidepressant use compared with no use was associated with diabetes risk in the placebo (adjusted hazard ratio 2.34 [95% CI 1.32–4.15]) and lifestyle (2.48 [1.45–4.22]) arms, but not in the metformin arm (0.55 [0.25–1.19]).
CONCLUSIONS Continuous antidepressant use was significantly associated with diabetes risk in the placebo and lifestyle arms. Measured confounders and mediators did not account for this association, which could represent a drug effect or reflect differences not assessed in this study between antidepressant users and nonusers.

Do we have an agreement?," asked lead trumpeter and Rebirth Brass Band (RBB) member Chadrick Honre at the beginning of the band's second marathon set at the Dakota last Thursday night. He asked the audience if they were ready for some New Orleans music, if they were ready to have a good time and dance, and then encouraged them to get up and do it. The packed house, consisting of just about every age and ethnic demographic, honored that agreement.
For almost a full 90 minutes, eight songs, and one encore later, the eight piece Grammy-winning ensemble that's been entertaining music supporters around the globe since 1983 stepped off the stage as if they had just left a boxing match and won by TKO. From start to finish people were dancing and singing in the aisles. Continue Reading →

The rise of the smart-phone as the global social networking and on-line browsing device of choice has expedited the convergence of fixed and mobile communications into "ubiquitous broadband" - even in the UK (which went from leader to laggard during the dead-end decade of local loop unbundling). Hence the driving force behind deals which upstage BDUK Broadband policy like that of O2 and Kensington and Westminster in much that same way that BSkyB upstaged IBA Satellite policy, two decades ago.
Meanwhile the fragmentation of debate over privacy,
surveillance, on-line safety and cyberwarfare continues to complicate the
spread of cost-effective information security by design - as opposed
to coating that which is inherently insecure with layers of expensive and ineffectual scareware.
Will that change as more businesses realise that using the identity chips already embedded
in PCs and mobile phones enables identification
of the physical device with which they are communicating? The routines
are not totally spoof-proof (nothing ever is), but they do enable better,
faster, less obtrusive security at lower
cost. They also restrict anonymity to those willing to pay for the privilege. I look forward to seeing a converged
debate flushing out the hidden agendas of those who wish to see this
happen, those who do not, those who wish use all to be uniquely identifiable and those who wish to have multiple on-line personas with different attributes which they can manage separately.
And what about regulatory convergence?
Has the time come to put Ofcom's telecommunications roles into a converged UK Utilities Regulator. Nations like Germany have already accepted that communications infrastructures should be regulated in tandem with the other critical utility infrastructures on which society depends. Does it make sense to separate the transport layer from the content layer? If so, where does the address layer sit. Given the unresolved power struggles over privacy and surveillance, let alone those over the responsibilities and liabilities that go with claims to content ownership, would it not be more sensible to copy the approach to the 2003 Communication Act and separate out that which is urgent , if anything, from that on which may well be politically impossible to secure meaningful agreement?
We can see the lobbying efforts of the dominant fixed and mobile operators, on-line service providers and content publishers ramping up in advance of the Communications Green paper. The 2003 Act has been described as "out of date" because it gives Ofcom such limited scope to regulate the Internet. That was, however, a very deliberate political decision. We should think long and hard before we add Ofcom to the armies of overlapping and feuding, national and international, bodies who have turned what was supposed to be a liberating force into the most regulated medium the world has ever known. Meanwhile what sane politicians wishes to be caught between the "Internet Natives" and the "Copyright Enforcers" when they join battle over "making sense of the Digital Economy Act" and the associated EU Directives?
Back to my opening question: will 2012 be the year in which convergence finally happens and helps bring about economic recovery?
Not if the politicians and bureaucrats are allowed to plan the way ahead.
If our children and grandchildren are to have a future we have to allow market forces to compensate for the political and regulatory
failure that has led us to where are today.
We have to copy the bonfire of regulation which enabled the first industrial revolution to gather speed, in Britain, in the 1780s, if we are to avoid a failure of planning and control akin to that which led to "regime change" in France in the 1790s.
We also need to begin in spring 2012 - the riots of last summer may well be repeated during the Olympics if we have not already begun to give hope for the future to our social networking savvy NEETs - including involving those who already have criminal records in stewardship roles. Now there is a challenge for converged thinking - getting LOCOG and the IOC to live up to their side of the bargain for a socially inclusive, multicultural London Olympics in the time that is left.

Women and Medicine in the Nineteenth Century, PAMLA 2014 (Due May 15)
full name / name of organization:
Pacific Ancient and Modern Language Association (PAMLA) 112th Annual Conference (Oct 31-Nov 2, Riverside, CA)
contact email:
Women and Medicine in the Nineteenth Century
Despite the increasing demand for a scientific approach to medicine in the nineteenth century, Victorian medical advice was often circumscribed by cultural expectations for women. However, the century also saw an increasing role for women in the field of professional medicine, including the first British female doctor, Elizabeth Garrett Anderson. The period's medical texts and practices along with the culture's more popular understanding of these practices as revealed in the literature and popular culture of the period thus provide a fruitful area for interdisciplinary academic conversation. This special session for the PAMLA 2014 Annual Conference invites papers on any aspect of Victorian medicine's relationship to women. Possible topics include:
•Literary and cultural representations of (female) disease
Submission Deadline: May 15
Proposals must be submitted via the PAMLA website (http://www.pamla.org/2014).

Having used Skype for work, I know that technical difficulties abound. So, I was very curious to see how this would work out for improv comedy. It went as expected. The San Francisco cast seems to be a little more trained for improv than the LA cast, but it was still enjoyable. Sound issues were numerous, but were incorporated into the skits well. I would definitely go again with a larger crowd.

"Quirky," "Really funny" with "sparks of brilliance" and "an intriguing idea with loads of potential." – LA Weekly
In the first half of the show, audience members are treated as producers and writers and asked for suggestions to shape the shows they'll see that night. Once everyone is accustomed to the techno improv format, the cast takes the show to the next level with long-form improv and more audience involvement on and off stage as both cities jam online.

A deadly accident between two jet skis in North Carolina ended with the death of a 9-year-old boy and the hospitalization of another teen.
Four kids, ages 9, 10, 14 and 15 were riding jet skis behind a summer camp on Lake Norman in North Carolina when the two watercrafts collided. One of the jet skis was being driven by the 15-year-old girl, the other by the 14-year-old.
The 9-year-old boy died due to head trauma. Only one other teen was hospitalized.
Camp counselors were quick to help and perform CPR on the boy.
The four youths involved in the accident were siblings from Phoenix, visiting family for the summer.
Although the kids were young, wildlife officials said anyone between 14 years old and up can operate a watercraft as long as they have taken a boating safety course.
Officials are still investigating this accident.
Florida weather is perfect for boating, jet skiing and other water sports. However, personal watercraft, jet-ski wrecks, and wave runner crashes can cause serious injuries. Even if you are on vacation, it is important to follow the law while boating.
The most common causes of boating accidents include:
•· Boating under the influence of alcohol
•· Boat operator not paying attention
•· Careless or reckless operation of the boating vehicle
•· Careless passenger behavior
•· Operator inexperience.
For more information, please contact us at 305-371-3666.

Amaro talks Halladay, Howard, Ruiz and more
Quick 6 with Ruben Amaro Jr.
Ruben Amaro Jr. on the health of Ryan Howard: "Ryan loves to play and he wants to play. I think he's feeling as close to 'himself' as he's felt in a long time." (AP)
In the midst of a busy offseason, Phillies GM Ruben Amaro Jr. joined Comcast SportsNet's "Philly Sports Talk" on Monday to discuss a number of topics regarding the state of the team, including Roy Halladay, Ryan Howard, Carlos Ruiz and more.
Here's what Amaro had to say:
Where are you on Halladay and what will it take to bring him back?
"I've had a couple of conversations early in the offseason with Roy's representative, Greg Landry, and I have not spoken with him over the last maybe 10 days or so. We're kind of trading phone calls right now.
"I'm not really sure what the future holds for Roy Halladay. I think everybody knows how much I respect him, how much he's respected by our club, by our organization. I'll be frank with you, I just don't know exactly what's going to happen with him and time will tell."
What's the latest on Howard and how many games would you expect him to play if he's 100 percent healthy?
"I hope he's playing 145, 150 games. Ryan loves to play and he wants to play. I think he's feeling as close to 'himself' as he's felt in a long time. There's no question that Ryan Howard is an integral part of our club. Having him in the middle of the lineup and producing for us is absolutely imperative.
"As I've said before, if the guys in the middle of the lineup, our veteran guys, are not producing, then it's going to make it very difficult for us to contend. But if they are, then I do believe that we can contend and will because I think they we have some good young players around them.
"The Reveres, and the Browns, and the Asches or the Maikel Francos, whoever it might be playing third base, they're young players who can help shape our club even though we have an older core, I do believe that those young players can help our older core and move us forward."
Why did you think Ruiz was the best option at catcher?
"Clearly he's most familiar with our pitching staff, our pitching staff's familiar with him. But again, as I've said before, he's caught the last pitch of the season and he knows what it takes to be a world champion. I fully expect him to come back and play not just offensively, but defensively as well to the caliber of play that I know Chooch can do."
How important is the way Ruiz handles the pitching staff?
"Well it's clear that that position is probably one of the most underrated and one of the most important positions as far as I'm concerned -- someone who can run the game, someone who knows how to win, someone who knows how to work a pitcher through an inning. With some of the young players and pitchers that we have, I think he's going to be an excellent liaison to Bob McClure, who's our new pitching coach, I think he's going to help us in that regard as well.
"But he's also a very clutch hitter. He's important for us offensively as well, and with what was out there on the free-agent market, we felt like he was the right guy for us."

Answer this question


text:
And what about home runs? Do they require double the power? No. The difference between some doubles and home runs are mere feet. Why does a home run hit 405 feet receive twice the points as a 395 foot double? If we're measuring power, the ratios don't seem to work out. Yes, a home run requires more power—250 foot line drives can end up in gaps, but they don't end up over the fence—but does SLG accurately reflect the difference? Again, I think not.
If we're looking at measuring power, total bases seem to be a poor way to measure it. Sure, it makes some sense, but total bases are dependent on defense, park, etc. in many of the ways that wins are dependent on other things. Hitters are still primarily responsible, but there are other factors that lead to extra bases than a hitter's power. Instead, it might be more accurate to figure out the average distance a ball is hit—total feet covered by batted ball/number of batted balls. We have all sorts of spray charts, so I figure that, while it will take more time, we do have the technology.
But is SLG completely useless? What about measuring how likely they are to bring in runs? According to The Book website, singles have a run expectancy of 0.47, doubles 0.77, triples 1.09, and home runs 1.39. If we use this model, we don't have the same problems SLG did with power, namely that doubles and triples are essentially the same batted ball but towards different spots and with different speed runners, but there are still problems. SLG gives doubles double the points of a single, but doubles don't give twice the run expectancy. Home runs don't give twice the run expectancy of doubles. It's a lot closer than simply measuring power, but again, it falls short.
I'm not the first to realize some of these problems. ISO (Isolated power) realizes that all SLG are not created equal. A .220 hitter that has a .420 SLG has more power than a .320 hitter with the same SLG. ISO, then, takes SLG – BA, and the resulting difference gives us a better look at how many more extra base hits one hitter has over another. Unfortunately, it uses SLG. wOBA (and other similar statistics) avoids using SLG, but it's an overall batting statistic that doesn't directly reflect power.
SLG is a pretty quick and easy statistic to calculate, but I'm not entirely sure what it is calculating. Directly, it calculates the average number of total bases a batter gets per at-bat, but I don't know that it directly reflects a batter's power. And if ISO essentially just uses SLG and BA, I'm not sure it does either. Sure, it gives us a general idea, but I don't know if it's an accurate answer to the question of who the most powerful hitter in baseball is.
This started from an interesting article I read at Wahoo Blues. The idea was that ISO doesn't accurately reflect power because not all ISOs are created equal. For instance, a .200 ISO isn't always the same. A .220 hitter with a .420 SLG has more power than someone with a .320 average and .520 SLG because the hitter with a .320 average has quite a few singles boosting his SLG, and thus his ISO. Lewie Pollis has an excellent idea on how to solve it, but I wonder if it's not based on a flawed premise. If SLG is flawed, then anything even tangentially affiliated with it, no matter how many times removed, is flawed, right?
So what now? Power is about more than just hits. Home runs and doubles are nice, but guys hit really far outs as well. Guys also have really short hits as well. Yet, SLG and other statistics treat all singles the same, all doubles the same, etc. when some obviously demonstrate more power—an infield hit is treated the same way as a line shot that lands just before the center fielder, but they obviously demonstrate differing levels of power. Every batted ball should be counted when considering power because they all demonstrate an aspect of power. A well-struck ball at a left fielder is the same as a ball hit similarly well toward the gap, but they are counted differently. As for how to solve this problem, I have options but not an absolute.
The average batted distance seems to be the simplest way to do it, and I think we have the technology to do it. But how exactly is the distance measured? For instance, a line shot at Jeter will be caught by Jeter a certain distance from the plate, but it obviously could have gone farther. And does a line drive that goes 320 feet require more or less power than a fly ball to the same distance? And where exactly (I really want to know the answer to this by the way) does a home run distance come from–where it actually stops or where it would have landed had stands and fans not gotten in the way?
So we could also use the batter's average batted ball speed. Hit f/x, I think, records such measurements, but I don't know if that information has been released. But I don't know if a batter would hit enough of a certain pitch to throw things off. For instance, would a batter who hits and/or faces an inordinate number of fastballs going to have a higher batted ball speed because the pitch speed is faster, and would a batter who faces more breaking pitches see a batted ball speed less than he should? Maybe we could just use batted ball speeds off fastballs. Again, I'm better at giving options.
Those are a couple of my answers, but feel free to leave more in the comments section. Also, if I'm missing something completely obvious that throws all of this under a bus, I'll take that as well.

I had a similar problem in my app. I had a YES/NO dialog and when I used the Tab key to move the focus to the No button and hit Enter, it would click the Yes button instead. I found out that it has to do with which button has the default focus. I believe the default focused button is different, depending on which L&F you are using. One way to make sure that the selected button follows the focus is to specify it at the beginning of your program with the following:
UIManager.put("Button.defaultButtonFollowsFocus", Boolean.TRUE);

Pricing & Options
This bug detector will detect different types of radio transmitting equipment and inform you by way of a bar graph indicator or silently by a vibrating indicator.
Currently there are a lot of commercially available surveillance devices that allow you to pick up different information from your office, apartment or car.
These bugging devices work within different frequency ranges and have different modulation and scheme types. They may transmit using standard modulation, as well as non-standard.
This can detect all of these bugging devices when in active mode. You can test premises, cars or any type of item; including office equipment. You will also be able to check people for body-carried transmitters. You may perform covert sweeping using the vibrating indicator. In such cases you can carry this unit and stand in close proximity to a potential threat. If the vibration starts near a certain place, this indicates that the radio field is higher and there is an RF device.
You will also detect if somebody is using a GSM phone. There are known cases, when people have left their mobile phone off the hook and all the conversation was transmitted to another phone or even recorded onto an answering machine. In addition, there are plenty of GSM devices available on the market which can be used for surveillance and monitoring - GSM baby-watches, GSM-based alarm systems and different 'bugs' transmitting conversations via the mobile network.
Product Features:
- Portable and Covert sweeping device
- Detects both analogue and digital transmissions
- Allows the operator to locate the source
- 10-segment indicator of RF level
- Vibrating signal for concealed indication of a high RF level
- Adjustable sensitivity
- Frequency range 10-3600MHz
- Durable duralumin case
- Powered by 2 AAA batteries
- High sensitivity
- Includes the 'CITY' antenna; allowing the device to avoid
- Interference from external sources in cities or near broadcasting towers
- Searching for active radio transmitting surveillance devices (or RF bugging devices) in premises, vehicles and items.
- Room, body-carried, telephone and car bugging devices can also be found by the device.
- Discovering the improper use of mobile phones and other communication equipment for picking up conversations. The information in this case can be transmitted to another phone or recorded onto an answering machine.
- Detection of GSM bugs, 'spy' mobile phones and mobile phones in an active state (for illegal transmission of conversations)
- Detection of harmful emissions from GSM-jammers or mini recorder suppressors
- Detection of harmful emissions from microwave ovens, communication antennas and other electronic appliances

I'm reading over phpdoc.org and don't quite understand the best time to use @package, @subpackage and @category. Ironically, the documentation / examples are not as helpful. Is it just me?
If it helps, I have a main project (i.e., a WordPress theme). That theme is build out with second project, which a library of classes. That library is further divided by the type of functionality it supports. For example, the classes folder has subfolders for: Theme, Taxonomies, Search, etc.
These subfolders seem like a good candidate for categories but the phpdoc examples for @subpackage and @category aren't very clear me to. For that matter, the definition of @package doesn't exactly beat me over the head as I would expect the documentation for a documentation tool to do.
Answers and any good links to get up to speed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I guess there's a million different ways one can announce their first pregnancy. I opted for a hiking blog post, why not?
And of course, I feel there needs to be a little follow up on this. You see, I'm only ten weeks along. According to many, it's not recommended that I share this news until after I'm well into the 2nd trimester (after 12-14 weeks).
I've totally blown that. I probably told about 25 people when I first tested positive at five weeks. Since it was mostly family and close friends, everyone reacted with generous excitement. But as I continued to share the news with acquaintances or colleagues at work, I was met with mixed reactions.
"Oh, only x weeks?" someone said. "Well, congratulations…but take it easy, okay?"
To my overly-paranoid mind, this translates to: "You shouldn't be telling me this because I don't want to hear about your upcoming miscarriage."
(For the record, I intellectually understand that this person was just being kind and that my interpretation is a result of my nut-jobbery.)
But I find it particularly aggravating that a miscarriage is something a woman should try to avoid having to share. So it turns out the best way to avoid sharing the news of a miscarriage is to wait to share the news of your pregnancy.
"If I lost my foot," I explained to Lou one day, "I would want the support of my family and friends through that loss." After he stopped laughing at my comparison, Lou agreed.
But I think this has deeper roots than just wanting support.
Because every time I deliver the news in this early stage of pregnancy, I feel a bit of shame.
What is that all about?
I'm shooting from the hip here, but I don't think I'm the only woman who has feelings of shame intertwined with the idea (or the experience) of a miscarriage. And this, I believe, is left over from time periods in cultural history when a miscarriage was interpreted as a total failure. It meant a woman could not fulfill her purpose. And it meant the husband had made a poor investment.
I don't want to perpetuate a behavior that references this unfortunate history.
So I'm spreading the news about my pregnancy.* And if I have a miscarriage I will be sure to get the word out about that as well. I know there are other women who experience this in silence. And if they can't lean on family and friends, maybe they'll quietly find my miscarriage blog and feel some comfort.
(Christ, I feel squeamish about describing that scenario but this whole topic is a superstitious trap so there's no winning here.)
When contemplating the decision as to whether or not to tell "early", I've often thought of an email exchange I had with a friend a few years ago.
"It's okay…we'll catch the next one!" was her response when I congratulated her on a pregnancy. Her polite message revealed that I hadn't received the news of her miscarriage.
I still admire her for that. She handled it with grace and a positive attitude. She wasn't ashamed.
Because she (and we) shouldn't have to be.
*I absolutely respect anyone who makes the decision to wait to share their news. For some, it's as simple as a matter of personal privacy.

Is that picture for Fast Camera taken in front of Sunnyside Resort in Lake Tahoe?
Five fresh photo app updates this week
Lauren Crabbe | Published: Mar 8, 2013 at 20:30 UTC6
After the hardware news out of Barcelona last week, software has reentered the news this week. App developers are rolling out updates. We rounded up the 5 biggest photo app updates from iOS, Android, and Windows Phone 8.
1. Fast Camera added Volume Shutter
Volume shutter has emerged on yet another iOS camera app. While Apple has previously pulled apps from the App Store for using the feature, a slew of high-profile camera apps have released updates that include the use of the volume-up button as a shutter release. Fast Camera's latest update includes the feature as well as some bug fixes.
From the Fast Camera page on iTunes:
Fast Camera; iOS; $1.99
2. Cinemagraph now available on Windows Phone 7.5 and 7.8

4. 6x6 and 6x7 get performance enhancements
Jaggr, the maker of 645 Pro, has a number of excellent apps in its portfolio. Its 6x6 and 6x7 are apps designed to mimic medium format cameras, allowing for manual focus and exposure control as well as features like on/off flash (no auto), black and white capture, and no digital zooming. 6x6, in particular, seems to be the control-freak's answer to Hipstamatic's auto filter and focusing. Jaggr is vague about this latest update, but its worth a look if 6x6 and 6x7 have been bugging out on your phone.
From Jaggr:
Release 3.10 introduces a range of performance enhancements along with minor bug-fixes.

Grassroots movement saving Illinois history
By Alexandra M. Newbern
Imagine a place where you can travel back in time and become part of the 18th century, a place where kids can have fun while discovering history and adults can enjoy watching their children learn. You can escape the demands of modern technology and take pleasure in the simple life by going to Fort de Chartres during the annual Rendezvous. The Rendezvous is the largest and oldest 18th century re-creation in the United States – and it takes place in Southern Illinois! Similar experiences of "traveling back in time" can be had at all of the historical sites Illinois has to offer.
Illinois is a history-rich state with more than 60 historic sites recognized by the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency. Each year, approximately 2.5 million people tour these historic spots. Despite the abundance of history and the amount of tourism in the state, the recent financial crisis has forced many historic sites to close temporarily until funds can be found to reopen them. While there are many problems with shutting down historical sites, the main issue is many have a difficult time reopening. How can Illinois keep from losing its history when the funds to save the historical sites are nowhere to be found?
Sarah Schatte, CEO of the organization aptly named Save Illinois History, believes she has the answer. Save Illinois History was founded in November 2008 when Schatte and a small group of people were sitting around a campfire talking about the large number of site closures throughout the state. From this campfire talk, a grassroots movement was started to save four of the historical sites in Southern Illinois – Fort de Chartres, The Pierre Menard House, Fort Kaskaskia, and The Cahokia Court House.
The Save Illinois History group is a not-for-profit organization that relies on fundraising, sponsorships and donations to operate. Schatte is very passionate about drawing a larger and more diverse crowd of people to the four sites in Southern Illinois – especially to Fort de Chartres, which she refers to as "one of the finest historic sites in not just the state, but in the country."
One of the ways she plans to attract different types of people is by holding various events at the sites. On April 9, 2010 an event called School Days, which helps young people experience history, was held at Fort de Chartres. Gathering a crowd of 400 children, Schatte described School Days as a success and plans to host it again next year in hopes the attendance will be even larger.
An annual bluegrass music festival is held at Fort Kaskaskia. "This year," Schatte said, "We are looking to beef up and add some acts that will entice a younger crowd, a younger group. People that wouldn't normally come to historical sites, but might want to come to hear the bands." The festival will be held this year on September 25 and 26.
Save Illinois History is partnering with the Boulevard Brewing Company to put on a Brewfest event at Fort de Chartres on Oct. 9, 2010. The Brewfest will be a beer tasting with an 18th Century theme and 3,000 guests are expected to attend.
Not only do these events bring more visitors into historic sites, they help to raise funds to operate and improve the sites. Save Illinois History would like to raise $49, 850 this year to complete a few improvement projects at each of the four sites. However, Schatte said, these enhancements are a minimum because it would be "exponentially more, millions and millions of dollars" if each site received all of the necessary upgrades.
Schatte and her organization believe it is crucial for the historical sites throughout Illinois to remain open because without them Illinois history will be lost. Also, adults and children alike will miss out on a valuable learning experience.
Currently, the state allocates $7.9 million annually to help fund all of the historical sites. According to David Blanchette, spokesperson for the Illinois Historical Preservation Agency, "We are currently operating historic sites at a significantly lower budget than we had several years ago … I cannot say the exact figure that is actually needed, but I can say that it is significantly higher than what the budget is now."
Although many may think funds are divided among the historical sites based on the number of visitors each year, the truth is funds are given based on the number of employees and the cost to operate the site. "Many times," Blanchette said, "it is the small house museums that cost the most to run because they must be cleaned on a daily basis."
Blanchette also said, "We sincerely appreciate the commitment by members of Save Illinois History to keeping our historic sites open to the public. The Agency and Save Illinois History both realize the value of the historic treasures we have in southwestern Illinois and hope we can keep these sites open to the public as much as possible."
If state funding is cut, the responsibility to keep historic sites in operation will be left to the local communities. Some things community members can do to help include volunteering at the sites, becoming a member of support organizations, making monetary contributions and spreading awareness about historic sites.

Reviews by finkrocks44
Great game, even bought some DLC for itfinkrocks44 | Dec. 31, 2013 | Review of Worms Reloaded - PC
This is a really fun game, and very representative of the standard Worms series. I love the franchise a lot, and if you've never played it before, it might be a good idea to test out any game from the series you can get your hands on since they follow a pretty standard model. It's an absolute blast to play with friends, so you should try to get a friend to get a copy with you so you can play multiplayer together. I love this game a lot and would recommend this game to pretty much anyone, but I will say I know a few people who aren't as excited as me about it, so it might be an acquired taste. Definitely give it a try, the price is right and it has amazing replayability.
A top pick game for any collectionfinkrocks44 | Nov. 22, 2013 | Review of The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Legendary Edition Bethesda - PC
This is one of my absolute favorite games of all time, and if you have not played it yet, you need to get it now. This game has a gigantic overworld, ad you have complete freedom to do whatever you want, so you will never get bored of repetitive play. The legendary edition just adds more fun to the mix, but if you are on a budget, it is completely reasonable to just go with the base game and still have an amazing experience. The legendary edition comes with a good pile of DLC but it doubles the price of the base game, so if you've never played any Elder Scrolls games before, it might be a good idea to start with Oblivion or the base game to see if you like it before tossing around $60. If you know that you like these types of games, then I would definitely give my recommendation for legendary edition to have the full experience.
Same old fallout, new landfinkrocks44 | Nov. 22, 2013 | Review of Fallout New Vegas Ultimate Edition - PC
Personally, I still think that I like Fallout 3 better than New Vegas, but both are very similar. New Vegas does, however, have a nicer landscape, and actual cities that bring new life to the game. The mechanics are just like in Fallout 3, you are traveling around the world in a free-realm and can go across doing everything in any order you choose, so you have unlimited gameplay hours and replayability. My only complaint is that other than giving you a new storyline and world, it doesn't really do much different than Fallout 3, it feels more like an expansion than a completely new game. The price seems to be going pretty low though, and whether or not its like Fallout 3, it's still an amazing game and I would highly recommend it.
One of the best indie games I've playedfinkrocks44 | Nov. 22, 2013 | Review of Super Meat Boy - PC
Super meat boy is one of those "I'll only play one more level" games, and will leave you staying up for hours playing it. The controls are flawless, and everything works very smoothly. The cut-scenes and story line add for some great comedy and make the game even more enjoyable. The game is actually pretty big, having a huge library of hidden levels and characters to unlock, and there seems to always be something more to do. The only complaint I have about the game is its high price-tag for an indie game, but it still is worth it at full price, and I would recommend jumping for it if it goes on sale.
Funny and entertaining game, but not much to itfinkrocks44 | Nov. 22, 2013 | Review of DLC Quest - PC
I ended up getting this game on sale and have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The game is basically a satire of modern games that require DLC. It kept me entertained for a couple of hours but takes very little time to complete, but what else can you expect when the game costs a couple of dollars when full-priced. The gameplay itself is pretty cool and has very smooth controls, but there is almost no replayability. At a price of $3 I would still recommend getting the game, it can give quite a few laughs and the gameplay has a very nice modern-retro hybrid feeling to it.
A beginner's opinionfinkrocks44 | Nov. 21, 2013 | Review of Sid Meiers Civilization V - PC
Civilization 5 was the first game in the series that I started out with. I had never previously intended on getting into it since it never appealed to me, but when there was an offer online to get it for free I decided to try it out. I am extremely pleasantly surprised so far, and am even going to purchase an expansion pack(brave new world) now because I like the game so much. It's a standard strategy game that has you progressing through time as you try to conquer the world, and it's actually really cool how they threw in so many real historical references to the gameplay. The only complaint I do have, however, is that with just the base game there isn't much option for how to win. Militaristic paths seem to trump all other methods of winning for speed and efficiency, so that part did annoy me a little bit. Overall this is an absolutely amazing game and I would highly recommend it if you can find a good deal around. A word to the wise, do not ever try to convince yourself that you will only play for a little bit longer, it is NEVER going to be a little bit longer, even if you're sick of the game you're in, it is very hard to quit.

Paramore Band Member Welcomes Baby Girl — See Their Family Photo!
Paramore just got a brand new leading lady: Bass player Jeremy Davis has welcomed a baby girl! The new father and his wife, Kathryn Camsey, welcomed their first child at 7:16 p.m. on December 28, as announced via Jeremy's Twitter.
"So Everyone...Mine and @kittykatdav Baby Girl has been born!" he tweeted on December 31 alongside a family photo. The little lady or, as Jeremy adorably puts it, his Parababy, doesn't have a name yet, but her dad says it won't be that way for long.
"We will post her name soon," Jeremy explained on New Year's Eve. "I just wanted to let you all know before this year ends... :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))." He's excited! We're excited! Everybody's excited!
"She's a total angel and her face changes everyday," Jeremy continues of the 6 pound, 14 ounce bundle of joy. "We are already so in love with her!!" Also feeling the love is Paramore's lead singer, Hayley Williams, who retweeted Jeremy's happy news and celebrated her own birthday just a day before Baby Paramore's arrival.
As announced early last month, Jeremy recently took a break from the band to be with his family.
In a December 4 statement Hayley and fellow bandmate Taylor York explained Jeremy's temporary absence.
"We all thought that maaaaaybe that was a little bit important and everybody told him that if he needed to bold, we'd completely get it and we'd cheer him on from over here and swing the holiday shows without him," they wrote. "Make sure to send Jeremy lots of love and pictures from the shows and messages for him and Kat and the 1st P-more baby. We can't wait to meet her!"

Scripps Health cardiologist leads study of blood test's ability to detect warning signs
An experimental blood test suggests that it's possible to give a person up to two weeks' notice that they are at serious risk for suffering a heart attack or stroke, says a new study led by renowned Scripps Health cardiologist Dr. Eric Topol.
If the test turns out to be reliable, it could enable doctors to intervene with at-risk patients and possibly prevent many heart attacks and the damage they cause.
The findings are based on a study of 50 people who reported to four San Diego County hospitals while they were having a heart attack. A blood test revealed that circulating endothelial cells, or CECs, that normally coat the inside of heart arteries were sloughing off, allowing a blood clot to develop in patients. That's a classic cause of a heart attack.
"The CECs are supposed to be like insulation for the artery," said Topol, chief academic officer at Scripps Health. "When they start to slough off and become numerous and misshapen and have multiple nuclei, it is sign that a heart attack is imminent. They're a biomarker."
The findings were reported in the journal Science Translational Medicine.
Physicians are eager to develop better ways to determine if a person is suffering heart-related problems before any damage to the heart occurs. Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S., killing almost 600,000 people a year.
Currently, it's not unusual for patients to report to an emergency room with chest pains. If blood tests show that they haven't suffered damage, they're often sent home. Some suffer heart attacks within a matter of days.
Topol and his colleagues say that a heart attack takes shape days and weeks before it actually happens. The chain reaction can begin with CECs flaking off the interior wall of one of the three main arteries on the surface of the heart. That causes the artery to crack and results in a blood clot.
"It is the clot that cuts off the blood supply and serves as the proximate cause of a heart attack," Topol said. "Eventually, a plaque ruptures and a blood clot develops."
The new test might represent a more direct way for ER physicians to determine if a heart attack is imminent.
"This is a small study, and the findings would need to be replicated in a large clinical population before this becomes available for clinical practice," said Shaista Malik, director of the Preventive Cardiology Program at UC Irvine.
"However, that said, this is very exciting and innovative study. The ability to predict who might have a heart attack would result in many lives being saved. Approximately one-third of people who suffer heart attacks die before even reaching the hospital. Even among those who reach the hospital, early diagnosis would result in improved treatment.
"With a heart attack, time to diagnosis and treatment is critical. The faster the blocked artery that is causing the heart attack is opened up, the less damage there is to the heart muscle. With this type of test that can tell early on, possibly even before symptoms set in, would really change clinical practice and improve the prognosis for someone suffering a heart attack."
Scientists have long suspected that CECs can become troublemakers when they become sickly. But their true impact only became obvious as advances in technology made it possible for researchers to more clearly see and analyze the cells. The newest version of the blood test genetically confirms the presence of sick CECs.
Topol recently began evaluating this simpler, faster, more powerful version of the blood test on a group that will number 200 people. The plan is to test people at the time they show up at ERs complaining of chest pain.
He has been working on the study with his colleagues at the Scripps Translational Science Institute, a collaboration between Scripps Health and The Scripps Research Institute.
The earlier study also involved scientists and doctors from Veridex LLC, Palomar Health and Sharp HealthCare. The study was underwritten by a $2 million grant from the National Institutes of Health.

Would like to be part of a group that is working on a sweater at the same time - anyone interested in starting a pattern early in the new year. My skills are somewhere between advanced beginner and intermediate.
Views: 113
Finished the torso the other day.
Watched a video on how to cast on 2 sleeves on one magic loop and then sat down to figure out how my stripe pattern would work with the increases.
The pattern works fine with the increases, but the pattern is not going to match up when I get to the top where it's going to hit the yoke. Not sure how I'm going to handle it. I think if I add an additional 2 rows I can get it to match up... I think... :) wish me luck!
How is everyone else's sweater coming along?
It's on Ravelry under the Knit Picks group. It says "Sweater Workshop KAL". I just posted on it so it brought it back to the top of the group threads for you.
Maybe someone else will know how to link it here for you.
The KAL is in the Knitpicks Lovers Group in Ravelry and the thread is Sweater Workshop KAL - discussion.
This workshop is not Nina's Sweater Workshop, though, just so there is no confusion. This KAL is based on the Jacqueline Fee "The Sweater Workshop" book and will include her Sampler project first, followed with her Basic Sweater. The book is available from Knit PIcks in the spiral binding. This KAL is based on the original Knit Picks Community KAL for the The Sweater Workshop book that has been incorporated into this KAL. When I first came to KPC early in 2009, that KAL is what got me involved in the Community and lead to my finally knitting my very first ever sweater. :-)
It won't be starting until July so there is plenty of time to get the book and supplies and ask questions, etc. There will be links and lists for everything one needs to participate. Thanks for asking about it. I apologize that it didn't occur to me to post about it here myself. :-\
If you are talking about the Sweater Workshop book, by Jackie Fee, the 16" circular is not too large for the Sampler... you can just add more stitches and make the Sampler wider.
For sweater sleeves, a 16" circular might be too short depending on the diameter of your sleeves. DPNs or Magic Loop technique with a longer circular solves that problem.
The post above, from Feb 22, is about a KAL for Jackie Fee's Sweater Workshop which you are welcome to join if you'd like. We aren't starting until July, but if you can'f find a partner between now and then, you might consider that. :-)
