Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Predator Product Details
Deep in the jungles of Sri Lanka, the Ghosts have 72 hours to prepare the way for a U.S. invasion force. As open conflict with Pakistan looms, the Ghosts uncover proof that they've been targeting the wrong enemy. Now they must act before falsified intelligence lures America into an unpredictable and devastating war.
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Predator Features:
- An exclusive tactical experience: Decide what tactics are best - use your massive firepower to eliminate powerful enemies or use the jungle to sneak behind enemies and strike using the element of surprise.
- Electronic warfare: Use high-tech equipment to hunt, such as drones, air support and prototype weapons. Gaining experience for your squad allows customization of your Ghosts, making them more powerful.
- Multiplayer co-op: Create a rifle team with two other friends (up to three players ad-hoc). Use flanking tactics with your teammate to outsmart the opposition.

As previously reported, LCD Soundsystem are playing their last ever show April 2 in New York City at Madison Square Garden. On Wednesday, presale tickets went on sale via Ticketmaster and quickly sold out. Today, general tickets went on sale, but were, for many would-be purchasers, immediately unavailable. Meanwhile, tickets showed up on scalper sites like Stubhub starting at ~$150 and going up to anywhere from $750 to several thousand dollars for general-admission floor tickets. The situation was such that LCD Soundsystem posted this to their Twitter:
Check the hashtag--pretty much no one got tickets except for AMEX preferred members or the few lucky folks who made the pre-sale. And of course, the scalpers.
The bright side, of course, is it gives Aziz Ansari some material . . .

Image sensors are used more and more in daily life, not only in mobile phones, cars and computers, but also in areas such as medical, industrial and scientific applications. There are various challenges in pixel design, and especially so for large 4 transistor pixels which are necessary for high speed applications.
This webinar will give practical suggestions on the design of three- and four transistor pixels. It will provide some tips how to improve the speed of large pixels and generally on how to optimize designs that require large silicon areas. You will also receive information about X-FAB's newly released 0.18µm process platform XS018 which is optimized for image sensor applications and comes with features such as a pinned photo diode for 4 transistor pixel designs and low dark current.
Ultraviolet (UV) sensitive Silicon based photodiodes integrated into a high-voltage modular 0.35 μm CMOS technology are presented.
With 2015 designated as "Year of the Light" by UNESCO, X-FAB will reflect this theme with a free webinar in May about its integrated photo diodes that span the light spectrum from ultra-violet to infra-red. Come learn the challenges of supporting all parts of the spectrum with highly sensitive photo diodes. See how various photo diode structures compare in terms of light sensitivity, dark current and capacitance. Find out how to select the right devices for your optical sensor applications.
Spectral Response – Shedding Light on the Possibilities and Limitations of Optical Semiconductor Devices
What happens when optical signals are converted to electrical signals? Focusing on the optical to electrical conversion process, this webinar sheds some light on the basics of light interaction from reflection, transmission, polarization and refraction to absorption with semiconductors devices. It explores electrical fields, recombination and lifetime, doping profiles, band structures and pn-junctions to determine what happens when light has been converted into electron-hole pairs. This webinar provides a solid overview of passive and active optical sensor elements manufactured in a mixed-signal CMOS process or added during post processing
The filters are constituted by a Fabry-Perot resonator formed by two Bragg mirrors separated by a patterned cavity. The filter response can be tuned by changing the geometric parameters of the patterning, and consequently the cavity effective refractive index. In this way, many different filters can be produced at once on a single chip, allowing multichanneling. The filter has been designed, produced, and characterized. The results for a chip with 24 filters are presented.
We present a method for producing monolithically integrated CMOS optical filters with different and customerspecific responses. The filters are constituted by a Fabry-Perot resonator formed by two Bragg mirrors separated by a patterned cavity. The filter response can be tuned by changing the geometric parameters of the patterning, and consequently the cavity effective refractive index. In this way, many different filters can be produced at once on a single chip, allowing multichanneling. The filter has been designed, produced, and characterized. The results for a chip with 24 filters are presented.
PIN photodiodes are often used in optical integrated circuits. Although they can feature a very good RF-performance, this can be effected by the optical power density of the incident light. The influence of this effect on the RF-performance of PIN photodiodes is described. When a critical optical power density in the epi-layer is exceeded the 3dB frequencies are cut off. An analytical equation is derived to describe the effect. The results are compared to RF measurements and verified by numerical simulation.
Diodes inherent in a CMOS process are light sensitive and could be exploited as photodetectors. To detect light the photo generated carriers need to be separated by the electrical field of an internal pn junction. They are either generated inside the depletion region or can get there by diffusion. The depth where these carriers are generated depends strongly on the wavelength. The generation profile, the pn junction depth and the diffusion length all impact the spectral sensitivity.
Photo detector integrated circuits (PDIC) require high-sensitivity and high-bandwidth photo diodes for the latest generation of Blu-ray data storage devices. Due to the very short 405nm wavelength used, carriers are generated close to the surface. Standard photo diodes have only a low sensitivity for blue light. Therefore, special adapted photo diodes are necessary to support sensitivity higher than 0.25A/W for a 405nm wavelength.
XO035 is X-FAB's specialized process for optoelectronic and high speed RF applications. It is especially suited for applications needing sensitive high bandwidth photo diodes arrays or CMOS image sensors for such applications as optical data storage, optical data communication or high dynamic range cameras.

I was reading this article:
and I get confused about the purpose and use of the DT Plug-in and the deployJava.js.
I always believe that the Deployment Toolkit is the set of functions of the deployJava.js file (like this link says: http://blogs.oracle.com/thejavatutorials/entry/deployment_toolkit_101) but according to the article there are two parts of the Deployment Toolkit: the Plug-in and the interface for the developer.
I'm asking about all of this because the deployJava.js fails to detect the appropriate version of Java in some of the machines of our users and I was wondering if the DT Plug-in could help us improve the detection, but I don't know how exactly it detects the Java version and when it does it or how can I use it to solve detection problems?
Most of this doubts are driven by the question in the article:
So... why do I need the deployJava.js if the DT Plug-in exists or vice versa?
Any help on this matter would be very appreciated.
Thank you very much.

in response to englishchickwend74,
Taking the lead from how Apple themselves pack their products I would use rigid foam board. I also, without having the original box would double box the computer. The inner box would hold the computer wrapped in plastic bubble wrap and peanuts type packing material and then this box would be placed inside of another slightly larger box with rigid sheet foam and peanuts around this.
Overseas shipping can be very ruff on containers. I have not shipped a computer overseas myself but judging how some of my items have been handled when shipping ebay items that I have sold I would pack it very well or have a professional packer pack it whether you ship it with them or not you could have them pack it if you don't feel confident enough.
I certainly think a flower power model worth treating with TLC.......I wish I had bought one originally......
And above all, INSURE IT!
good luck,
littleshoulders [:-)
PS. And a big "Welcome to America" when you arrive from all of us here at the Discussions! (or Welcome Back if your just moving back....)))

ASPEN — They didn't have to mop up any blood on Cottonwood Pass Wednesday. They didn't have to pick up any teeth, either. The most ghastly scene of the USA Pro Challenge's inaugural year in 2011 did not have an encore.
The U.S. Forest Service filled in the gap in the cattle guard that last year upended Italian cyclist Daniele Callegarin. Cycling has accidents, but few have been as horrific as the one that injured the 28-year-old for the Professional Continental team, Team Type-1.
Sitting right before the climb up Cottonwood Pass, Callegarin's bike hit the two-inch gap, destroying the wheel and sending him over the handlebars.
He landed on his face and hands going nearly 35 mph. He was airlifted to Denver's Swedish Medical Center where he was treated for two broken hands, major facial trauma that required plastic surgery, numerous broken teeth and a concussion.
If you saw his face that day, it's hard to believe he has a happy ending. He has one. He's back on his bike riding for Team Type-1.
Callegarin did not respond to e-mail requests for an interview this week as he is cycling in the Tour International du Poitou Charantes in France.
The only visible evidence of his 2011 crash is a slight scar on his chin.
"Now it's invisible," team general manager Vassili Davidenko said. "The guys in the hospital in Denver did an amazing job."
Yes, the surgeons did a good enough job that Callegarin's girlfriend at the time, now his wife, recognized him when she flew out from Milan. However, his road back to the road wasn't easy. He stayed off his bike until November because he had another surgery on his hands in Italy.
While his body healed, his mind didn't need a single therapy session.
"He was talking to us, saying, 'I want to get back on the bike,' " Davidenko said. "It was just a few weeks afterward. I said: 'Daniele, don't worry. Just get better.' He's a professional."
Callegarin got back on the bike in November and made his season debut in April at the Tour de Korea. Then, as if the cycling demons were watching, he crashed again. This time he slammed against a stone wall going downhill. He finished the stage but was treated for deep gashes on his thigh and arm and wound up leaving a hospital in a wheelchair.
This recovery went much quicker. Last week, he helped Team Type-1 win two stages at the Tour du Limousin.
"Since early July, he's been back to normal," team founder Phil Southerland said. "He's attacking races."
Unfortunately, the heartwarming comeback hasn't erased the heart-wrenching memories. Southerland founded the team as a platform to promote the awareness and maintenance of diabetes and athletes with diabetes.
An Atlanta-based team based on overcoming obstacles found the biggest one on the road in the Rockies.
"That's one of the worst days I've had as manager here," Southerland said. "Seeing the blood and the teeth, seeing a rider get life-flighted away, it's a traumatic experience."
Race officials made three efforts to make teams aware of the cattle guard: First, they pointed out the cattle guard during a meeting of team managers in Colorado Springs before the race began. Second, they put it in the technical guide. Third, a warning sign was posted on the road.
"We made teams aware by over-communicating," race CEO Shawn Hunter said.
Southerland and Davidenko aren't placing blame, and the team remains on good terms with Hunter, whose son, Dillon, is a diabetic and rode with the team car Tuesday.
"What can I say?" Davidenko said. "This is part of cycling. There are 150 riders, and a cyclist crashes. It's unfortunate. It's an accident."
Southerland did indicate he was upset with UCI, cycling's international governing body, for not allowing radio communication between teams and cyclists.
"When you're racing bikes, it's hard to remember where everything is," he said. "You're worried about mountains and sprints and whatnot. I wish we could've warned the guys."

Interaction with Guests
Gloria will be there to receive and assist you with advice regarding the exploration of the territory and its many historical and artistic points of interest. She will also supply a list of tipycal, not-touristy restaurants, wineries and oil mills, and can organize, if requested, guided eno-gastronomicals tours as well as guided visits to archaelogical or artistic sites.
The Neighborhood
Perched on top of hill, nearest to the town's center, with a spectacular scenic view of the best preserved part of the city, Torre Bertona is one of Todi's several castles. Torre Bertona is an ideal spot for a perfect long or short term holiday-vacation in the heart of Umbria, still with all the amenities, close by that the town has to offer and very close to the freeway!
Todi, a well known historical hill town, is two miles away from the house; this charming town boasts a rich cultural life and is exciting to explore, and is considered one of the best cities in the world for the quality of life; its location in Italy is excellent to visit the principal beauties of central Italy, and its landscape and culture are not touristy but genuinely Italian. Assisi, with the extraordinary Giotto's frescoes, Orvieto with its imposing Duomo and mysterious underground city and the lively Perugia are at easy reach. The territory surrounding Todi is rich of historical hill towns, but also of remains of the Etruscan and Roman civilization, of famous wineries and oil mills, of easy and beautiful walking trails.
Getting Around
In general, the countryside around Todi is completely full of castles and every little village has something to attract you, so maybe the best advice that can be given is just to wander around as much as you can (Cecanibbi, Montemolino, Ilci, etc…).
Perugia (Umbria's main city), Assisi and Orvieto are all reachable in 30 minutes; Rome and Florence are at 1 hour and 1/2 drive.
Don't miss to visit Assisi, Orvieto and Perugia, with the splendid Galleria Nazionale dell'Umbria, all reachable in about 30 minutes; but worth a visit is also the Todi museum and the roman cistern below the square, besides a gorgeous fresco in a nunnery called "Purgatorio di San Patrizio". Also Bevagna and Foligno are worth seeing.
Rome and Florence are at 1 hour and 1/2 drive,
as well as San Casciano Terme, a famous Spa resort.

Ciao, sono Gloria. Ho una vera passione per gli edifici antichi, l'arredamento e l'erboristeria. Ho unito le mie tre passioni realizzando il restauro di una casa si campagna nobiliare del 16° secolo sulla collina di fronte a Todi, ricavandone tre appartamenti comodi ed eleganti che riflettono lo spirito del luogo, e un giardino colmo di piante medicinali e aromatiche, in cui è inserita una bella piscina con vista su Todi. Spero di ospitarvi presto: vi sentirete a casa, spero.
Hi, I'm Gloria. I'm fond of historical buildings and of herbalism. I've restored a 16° century country house perced on the hill in front of Todi, trying to preserve its "look and feel" and set up three elegant self catering apartments and a garden rich in medicinal and aromatic plants, surrounding a panoramic swimming pool. I hope to welcome you there soon!

Hi everyone,
This is my first post and first time using WordPress. Hopefully somebody can help me out here.
I wanted to essentially use WP as a CMS to build a site for a client. I want to obviously use the posting system to post News on the homepage and have it archive. But I also want to create sections like About Us, Contact Us, etc. and have them appear in their own directories. For instance, http://www.site.com/aboutus
Is this possible? Am I asking to much or not thinking about how to do this correctly? I tired creating a category, but that didn't work. If I post in the About Us category, I don't what the information to appear on the homepage. I only want it to appear on the About Us page.
Thoughts? Ideas?
Thanks for the help!

Justin Bieber Trading Cards Hit Stores
If Justin Bieber singing dolls, nail polish and a best-selling memoir weren't enough to satisfy his fans, the pop star is now receiving his own set of trading cards and stickers. Entertainment collectible company Panini America has launched the Justin Bieber trading card set, which will hit shelves at Walmart, Target, Toys "R" Us and other retail outlets this week.
"I always dreamed of being a hockey player and having my own trading card," Bieber said in a statement. "I remember collecting hockey cards, so the idea that kids are going to enjoy my cards like I enjoyed my hockey cards is amazing!"
Justin Bieber Turns Humanitarian For 'Pray' Video
The collection will include 150 cards and 30 stickers, with four nine-card puzzles that let fans create small Bieber posters. Each pack will sell for $1.99 and will include five trading cards and one sticker.
The trading cards offer a solid merchandise stopgap between the release of Bieber's stripped-down "My Worlds Acoustic" album last month and his 3D concert movie, "Never Say Never," which comes out on Feb. 11, 2011.

Hi, I have overwintered both geraniums and chrysanthemums in my greenhouse, now not sure what to do with them.
The pots they were in are full of tulips and primroses.
The primroses I bought last autumn in flower and thought they would of died off by now. I have now been told that they will continue to grow and it is possible to split them to make more (any advice on how would be nice).
So do I just leave the primroses in place and buy more pots for the geraniums and chrysanthemums.
Also can I split either of these before repotting. I did try taking some cuttings - they continued to flower in the conservatory but have not rooted. Maybe September was the wrong time to try this - should I do it now?
If so, is it best to try rooting them in water or just compost (tried both in sept but neither way worked)
Thanks in anticipation
Hello lorr1500
Tulips often do not make a second year....some do some don't. I would pot them up in fresh compost in pots just sufficient to hold them. Primroses, yes, Split them. Pot them up and leave them in the shade.
Your geraniums....I expect they are pelargoniums....should not be divided but take cuttings and now is a good time. I put them around the edge of a pot kept dry for a week and then slightly watered. They root quickly and then can be potted up.
Chrysanthemums ....well. I pull or dig or cut out side pieces from the base and pot these up. These can be kept outside.
To split your primroses, cut off any dead flower heads, knock them out of the pots and then gently easy the plant apart with your fingers - using splits into 2 or 3 pieces with roots attached. Plant them immediately anywhere in the garden and water. They will keep coming up for years. I split mine and now they cover the ground near the dry stone wall every spring - looks a picture.
Happy gardening
thanks Verdun - disappointed to hear that the tulips wont flower again next year. will try splitting the geraniums and chrysanthemums as you suggested.
Mrs Monkey re the primroses, should I wait until they have finished flowering? Do you think they would be ok moved into small pots and then moved back to the large one in the autumn. I have them in half whiskey barrels at the moment which is where I had my geraniums last summer.
lorr, the tulips might well flower again. All our tulips flower every year, and I have added more and more. They are in free draining soil in raised beds, which is pretty optimum, because the most common reason for them not coming back is that the bulbs rot. In fact, I suspect some of the bulbs have divided because we seem to get even more flowers and more closely grouped than I would ever have planted them. So don't despair. My chrysanths from last year have been in the beds all winter, and are still growing - I thought they were annuals, and had nowhere to save them, but they have battled on through any frosts.
Thanks Busy Bee2
I was expecting that they would be like daffs. Want to try and get away from planting annuals every year. Would like the garden to be full of plants in flower all year round if poss.
Starting off with aconites, snowdrops, crocus, daffs, tulips, forsythia, grape hyacinth, forget me nots, then followed by a lot various other shrubs and plants that appear each year (which I am still trying to name),
I am taking photos every couple of weeks as I notice something different appear - then can hopefully find out their names and what exactly they do and when, and if I need to do anything to encourage their growth.
Been here over 10years and planned to do it every year but fully intend to do it this year - otherwise I will be downsizing to an OAP bungalow before I get it done lol.
Hi again
Just moved my geraniums into the greenhouse for the winter - just wondering if it is best to cut them down, or just leave them as I did last year and let them continue to flower in the greenhouse over the winter. Was wondering if by cutting them down they might grow even better next spring.
Also running out of space in the greenhouse, will chrysanthemums survive outdoors or possibly in the shed? Don't want to loose them - not at £8 a plant from Dobbies
Leave the geraniums as they are, keep them on the dry side. Chrysanths I would lift and pop them in some dryish compost,in a box, a cardboard box will do, pop them under the staging in the GH. They'll go dormant and in spring bring them out and start again.
Hi Dave, Great idea about the box - do you think it would be too dark for them in the shed?
not sure what to do about the geraniums I have in the greenhouse should I start watering soon or cut them back to encourage new growth
Assuming you're in the UK Carole I would leave them a couple more weeks. I usually start giving mine a bit more water at the end of Feb / beg of March when light levels and temps are starting to improve.
As soon as they start showing signs of stirring I repot them and cut them back fairly hard (especially if they're bit straggly) to make bushier plants. You can use some of the prunings as cuttings to make new plants.

Childress preaching patience
Despite a difficult first day, the Vikings still feel Tarvaris Jackson can lead the team to success in 2007, writes John Clayton.
MANKATO, Minn. -- Teammates say Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson cooks up a mean barbecue. He enjoys inviting teammates to his home and cooking chicken, ribs, anything.
Careful with his 225-pound weight, Jackson won't eat much, preferring to keep his teammates happy. A humble second-round choice from Alabama State, Jackson loves being around his teammates and making them happy. He's not a gourmet, but he knows never to serve his food before it's properly cooked.
His teammates must ...
