I've never really dabbled with anything in Illustrator, mostly done stuff in Photoshop. Keeping the file sizes down would be a massive plus and I can imagine some wicked ass colossal maps and even sub-terrain cities done in illustrator.
The style I use for dungeon mapping via PC though doesn't seem to lend itself to Illus; just been playing with it. How are you approaching it?

ATLANTA -- David Morrison, 50, had to rely on his colleagues at Delta Air Lines to help him piece together what happened the day he suffered a heart attack.
"If I had been anywhere else, I don't think the outcome would have been the same," Morrison told 11Alive's Jennifer Leslie.
He was sitting at his desk in Delta's finance department on the morning on February 13, when he suddenly slumped over and fell to the ground.
"We heard the thump. It was loud dead weight hitting the floor," said co-worker Vicki Eddy.
Right away, everyone who worked around him found a way to help.
"I knew at that point it was him and something was really wrong," said co-worker Mike Simmons, who called 911.
Another co-worker, Stephanie Tally, found an aspirin to put under his tongue and tried to get a pulse.
"Then I think I said, 'Somebody needs to do CPR. Does anyone know CPR?' That's when Vic and Terry moved in, and I moved out," Tally said.
Co-worker Terry Weitzel relied on CPR training from decades ago.
RELATED: Learn Hands-Only CPR Technique
"He needed someone to be compressing his chest and breathing into his mouth," Weitzel said. "I don't even recall how long that occurred."
He was coached by co-worker Vic Jackson.
"I know he's alive today because it was a group effort," Jackson said. "Everyone was doing something."
Co-worker Bella Bryant knew exactly where to find an automated external defibrillator or AED.
"I ran and got the machine. I've never run so fast in my entire life. I think I took two steps at at time," she said. "As soon as I opened it, the EMTs came in."
Emergency medics eventually took over and rushed Morrison to Atlanta Medical Center.
"I honestly thought that was the last moment I was going to see David, rolling out on that gurney," said co-worker Julie Marshall. "It is a true miracle that he is here with us today. And it's because of all these people that stepped up and did what they needed to do."
Their life-saving collaboration caught the attention of Delta executives, who were preparing to launch a new online CPR and AED training course.
A total of 7,000 employees worldwide have taken the course since the start of June.
"That's quite a spike, more than usual for a training course," said Rob Kight, Delta's Vice President of Global Human Resources and Labor Relations. "There's a lot of interest generated by David's story."
The company has also installed more AEDs, including on the third floor of the Atlanta General Offices, where Morrison and his colleagues have worked together for years.
"How do you feel about them now?" Leslie asked him.
"It's hard to put it into words without getting choked up," Morrison responded.
"Do they feel more like family?" she asked.
"Yes. I just don't know if I can invite them all over for dinner, he said with a laugh.
If you want to make sure your co-workers are prepared for a similar emergency, the American Red Cross will come out to do training on-site.
You can go to www.RedCross.org or call 1-800-REDCROSS for more information.

WINNEBAGO COUNTY (WIFR) -- Republican Candidate for Winnebago County State's Attorney Glen Weber says incumbent Joe Bruscato is unqualified for the job because he dropped the ball in the case of Melvin Perkins.
Perkins was recently arrested for allegedly stabbing his girlfriend to death in her sleep. Weber says Perkins has a history of domestic violence, and the last time he was in court in 2010 for hurting a different woman, Bruscato's office should have made him serve time.
Bruscato says Weber hasn't done adequate research on this issue, and if he had, he would have discovered that Bruscato did the best he could with an uncooperative victim who changed her story.
"The victim in that case very clearly indicated to us that they wanted the charges dropped, that they didn't want us to pursue those charges," Bruscato says. "That we as an office on behalf of the people were able to secure a conviction even though we had a victim that really didn't want us to pursue this case - I think that shows initiative on behalf of our office."
Weber says he's not trying to negatively campaign - he's just giving people the facts.
"People don't know the facts of what's going on in that office, and that there's total lack of training and total incompetence in pleading this case to a misdemeanor when he should've gotten 6 years in prison."
Bruscato says he wasn't in office the first few times Perkins was charged with various domestic violence related incidents, and Weber should do his research.
Both candidates agree it can be difficult to get convictions in domestic violence cases, especially because victims often change their minds about pursuing prosecution.

Featured Colonial House Plan: Elegant and Simple
What's old is new again. The elegant simplicity of this Colonial house plan will never become obsolete. Stunning details like the treatment of the windows and gables, plus the sturdiness of a brick exterior lends to its historic appearance. George Washington didn't sleep here only because you haven't built it yet. If he did, he would find plenty of room with four bedrooms on the second floor. He would be impressed by the modern interior, beyond the convenience of indoor plumbing, which by the way includes two full baths and laundry. Whether dining on mutton at the kitchen food bar or the dining room table, or warming himself at the great room's fireplace, he would be at home with the warmth and coziness of this two-story home plan. What a great place to begin your own history.

ATLANTA -- 11Alive has been feeling the holiday spirit lately. We have been celebrating it with our 11 Days of Gift Giving.
On Tuesday, the 11Alive Help Desk helped the Butler Street YMCA grant Christmas wishes to some deserving kids.
At the Publix on Panola Road in Lithonia Wednesday, 11Alive was able to surprise two very appreciative ladies with free groceries.
Inga, a wonderful woman who at first said she could not take the money, had recently had congestive heart failure. She had only been out of the hospital for a week. She finally accepted the gift from Karyn Greer, and was truly thankful.
The second woman who received our help was Yolanda. She recognized Karyn Greer right away. As soon as she realized what we were doing, she started tearing up. She had recently lost her job and was living with her sister. With her cart filled with food, she was making dinner for her sister to show her appreciation.
Karyn Greer, the Help Desk, and 11Alive were able to brighten up the day, and maybe even the week of these two women. Their appreciation touched not only us, but also the people who were able to witness it.

Tuscany Travel guide
Tuscany : Michelin's recommendations
Tuscany witnessed the birth of a key moment in the history of Western art: the Renaissance! From the 13C to the 16C, rival Tuscan cities engaged in endless wars, but that didn't keep them from turning into ''laboratories'' where inventors, painters and architects excelled, financed by wealthy families whose political prestige involved ostentatious displays of their luxurious lifestyle. Visiting Florence, Lucca, Pisa and Sienna is always an unparalleled delight.
Tuscany is equally captivating for its well-preserved landscapes, gently rolling hills, woodlands, vineyards, and olive and cypress trees, composing a harmonious and inspirational natural environment.
If you get the urge to explore Tuscany's gorgeous light and beautiful panoramas, take a drive or a bike ride down the road from Florence to Fiesole, where age-old farms with fine architecture keep watch over this land where the living is easy. And there's surely a wine cellar waiting there for you to sample one of the famous Tuscan wines while munching on a bruschetta drizzled with olive oil.
There is also an arid and more mysterious side of Tuscany known as Garfagnana, a mountainous region, protected by its status as a park, which runs along the Alpi Apuane and Apennine massif north of Lucca.
Tuscany has its own Riviera in Versilia, which stretches from the Mediterranean to the Alpi Apuane and is known for its mild climate. The coastline is dotted with seaside resorts graced with sandy beaches, the most famous of which is Viareggio. The hinterland around Pietrasanta and Upper Versilia, above Carrara, is a less well-known area that is also worth exploring.

OP's hands are effectively tied behind their backs.
We will regress into a one-party system,
hich is something that truly delights the liberals on here
We will be similar to western Europe soon enough.
It's a 40 year strategy that worked and sadly, has fricked over black people.
Keep telling yourself its not the republicans fault and see how this works out for you.
I love how conservatives are for self responsibility except when it comes to their campaigns.
quote:Either you didn't read the post you responded to, or you don't understand it.
Bull shite.
The perception that Republicans are racist is the result of years of effective propaganda.
It has nothing to do with "tone."
See Robert Byrd, the brutally racist history of the Dem party, the fact that Republicans passed the civil rights act, etc.
It's a 40 year strategy that worked and sadly, has fricked over black people.
Keep telling yourself its not the republicans fault and see how this works out for you.
I love how conservatives are for self responsibility except when it comes to their campaigns.
And I guess Goldwater's opposition to the Civil Rights Act in 1964 and the Southern Stratgey from 1968 to 1992 had nothing to do with it
. For the GOP, it's not some game in which the party can tinker its message without alienating its core base which still exists as a solid minority. Concurrently, progressivism has a natural tendency to expand over time.
he is somebody's alter.......give it time
I find it interesting how anybody that posts anything contrary to your beliefs is some sort of imposter?
Yep. The GOP needs to try to rebuild its image with minority voters. Unfortunately it'll take more than one election cycle to do it, and politicians are only worried about the next election.
Obama has returned more undocumented immigrants to their Country in 4 years than Bush in 8.
Don't bother refuting the conservative storyline. The patently false rhetoric and rampant bigotry is what's killing them in the elections.
The GOP had managed to alienate most in the the Jewish, Asian, Hispanic & Black communities(alienating non Southern women as well) & they are still insulting those groups instead of reaching out.
The GOP had a great oppurtunity with Bush immigration reform ,but now they only have a CATCH-22 on their hands:
1) Go along with Democratic Party promoted & Obama signed mmigration reform & the Democrats get credit/ credibility / indetification with Hispanics.
2) Continue to fight against immigration reform for the next 4 years with their angry rhetoric against Undocumented workers & further alienate Hispanics(Arizona/Alabama & angry GOP Presidential primaries).

I'm looking for a way to be able to have a list of approved devices for activesync.
Some of our users have company supplied iPhones, so we want them to be able to use activesync (and hence can't turn off the mobile devices connection for them), but we would like to be able to stop them from (for example) hooking up a non company supplied iPad or Android phone.
Is there a way to limit activesync to certain device ids ?

Shocking stage fright..
Ive been playing guitar for 7 years and i have never been able to get over stage fright infront of family and friends.
i can play quite well, own decent gigging equipment, talkboxs, pedals you name it but unfortunately none of my guitars or equipment have seen a stage cause i dont got the balls to join a band and play live..
i think mainly the reason is i have mates that would love to see me on stage and just hang shit the whole time (you could say im a musical outcast with my mates) for some reason in my recent years of playing i feel like i would die if my family & mates walked into the pub and seen me playing especially my gf..
my mates and that they see me play in my room you know along to a stereo but never on a stage.. to be honest i could be fine with complete randoms in the crowd but i have a fear people i know will walk in and laugh if i tryed to loosen up and move about. I know this is stupid, i should feel comfortable infront of the people i know but for some reason i dont.. they are harder to impress id have to be busting some 15 minute jimi hendrix solo for em to clap along..
in my early years of playing i use to always flunk out of highschool performances, i would rehearse get right up to the night and not show up i would just sit in my room and play by myself thanking god that everyone from school didnt see me up there especially on the night my girlfriends parents rocked up to watch there daughter get an award and watch some school performances.
i flunked out on 3 performances and felt like a piece of c%%p, still do my music teacher had to fill in all the times he eventually got fed up with me, couldnt blame him really. the music teacher said i always had talent and i only seem to get better, he also rated me the best guitarist when i was in year 9 out of the whole school but he also said it wont go far if i keep not showing up to shows.
any tips guys? sorry about the massive thread.

Have you ever tried to play in front of them, and (if you did) how did it go?
Apart from the embarrassment (that you mentioned above) can you be specific about what causes you to feel scared about playing in front of your family & friends?

I can play infront of like my immediate family, mum and dad etc but stuff like aunty's, uncles, cousins (keep in mind i have a huge family) friends and the gf make me feel uncomfortable..
my gf wouldnt like give me hell, but shed have a giggle seeing me on stage she has seen me play the most out of anybody but she doesnt take notice when i play she sort of phases out and blocks it lol. my mates on the other hands is the big one.. ive played many many many times infront of my mates but like i said only in my room to a stereo, ive stumped them only a handful of times over my 7 years of playing other then that they see it as cheese n crackers.
when i put concert dvds on an good solos come on that are quite touching to me all they can do is just laugh there heads off at how funny the guitarists face looks or the way hes dancing to the music. I know for a fact theyd have a good laugh if they seen me in the pub haha. on my 18th bday my mum had photos blown up of me she took them secretly while i was playing in my own room in my comfort zone i had my eyes shut and i was bending a note with my body and the guitar on a slight angle, my mates lost it lol.
i would just feel crushed if i didnt impress people close to me on stage, i dont got the best flow of moving and bopping around and im a bit of a stiff one on stage (shocking year 9 performance at school gave me that clarification, i actually did do one gig in year 9 we played smelled like teen spirit by nirvana) i guess i have the impression well if i cant amaze my friends i cant amaze a crowd

Ah yes, nervous energy.
To be honest, I haven't been nervous in years, BUT i USE to be.
I had such horrible stage fright that I would get sick before I played, after I played, get headaches, etc.
Good times.
Anyway, I recently put together a workshop for how to deal with it, for the guitar shop I teach at.
I have attached the PDF, of my notes, based on my own thoughts about it, AND some great source material.
It's not what I wound up presenting exactly, but what I cobbled together and from THIS, I came up with the workshop.
Sadly, I can't find that final version.
Oh well, hopefully it helps, or gets you thinking about how to reduce or channel nervous energy.

OK, well a few things strike me from what you said.
First off: What amazes your friends may not amaze a crowd and vice versa. My friends are amused by some of the farts I do. Not entirely sure a crowd would go wild listening to me jump fart though. Conversely my mates aren't that keen on Mastodon but I've seen them (Mastodon) whip up a crowd fairly well.
Second thing is: Don't let your mates put you off doing what you want to do. You have to be your own man and ignore them taking the piss. If you perform enough there'll come a time when they won't be able to take the piss because they'll either realise you're not listening to them, or that you can now do something they can't. But you'll never do that if you don't start, and the more you put it off and vacillate the worse it will get.
Third thing. You don't have to amaze a crowd, well not to begin with. All you have to do is stand in front of them, play your set then go do something else. If you're just starting out the kinds of venues you play aren't looking to book The Rolling Stones, they just want someone who will bring people into the bar/pub/club/whatever and get them to buy a few pints. If it's an open mic night they might not really care about that too much.
Fourth thing. If you're feeling nervous the best thing to try and do is relax. It's easier said than done, but it's just as skill like any other skill and the more you practice it the easier it will get. Take deep, slow breaths. Focus on the practical aspects of what you're about to do - run through the set-list in your head, tune your guitar, go for a shit, whatever - just do something to take your mind off the performance. If you were out rock-climbing and you got scared because you were looking down then the best thing you can do is to stop looking down and concentrate on the bit of rock you're climbing right now. Same with performing.
Last thing. There's a general rule in life that if you tell yourself something is absolutely impossible then you will find it impossible. If you don't find it impossible you'll find yourself putting obstacles in your own way because you've told yourself it's impossible, so why would it be achievable? OTOH if you tell yourself that something is achievable then you're more likely to find you can achieve it. Sure you'll fail at some things but you'll stand a much better chance of finding what you can do by trying than by saying you can't and never getting anywhere. So rather than tell yourself that you'll 'die with embarrassment' why not try telling yourself "Well I might be a bit embarrassed but I'm sure I'll get over it", or even "I'm not sure if I'll feel embarrassed or not. Why don't I give it a go and find out"? Even if you find out you get a bit embarrassed there are far worse things in life than feeling a bit embarrassed. For example: The day I told the girl who ended up being my wife how I felt about her I was blushing so hard I virtually lit up the sky. But what if I'd never told her? Stop setting up road-blocks in your mind about what you can and can't do and start doing the things you want to (unless that involves murder because that's kinda illegal). I'm quite sure that you can do literally anything in life if you're prepared to focus on that thing and work hard towards it.
But you'll never do any of that cool stuff that's out there unless you take the first step.

+1 to the the advice in the above posts
...and the photo at the 18th thing... thanks mum...!! Gah.
I promise you one thing.... if your mates saw you onstage...they'd wish it was them.... and if your girlfriend saw you up there...she'd be proud...
As far as overcoming nerves goes... I've been the same in the past.... some of the things that helped me a little was...
- super familiarity with the material to be played live. Like...super super super familiarity.... to the point of boredom
- slowly growing the number of people you play to. That is...if you are cool with playing to your mum and dad.... then add one friendly uncle or something.... then another time.... mum, dad, uncle, and the kid next door... etc etc...
In fact... I'd decrease the number of people to play to by one! Mum needs to be temporarily banished for her indescretion!! lol
And you know what? If you just stay in your room and play...and you love it...and it makes you feel happy.... then just stay there doing that and the world can get ****ed

I used to have the same problem, still play worse as soon as I press record with only me in a room. I recorded some stuff and put it on forums, getting some positive feedback really helped a lot of my self-criticism go away. Showing off recordings on SoundCloud etc. lets you control the environment and once that starts to feel more comfortable I think the step towards playing live in front of actual people will be smaller.

thanks guys, this advice means alot to me. i love playing in my room to my stereo, i feel comfortable, i play good all the time, im alone.
but having said that, im itching to show the world what i can do and see how my guitar playing and solos effect people the way good solos hit me.
i think that is a great idea, posting videos i never thought of that id be more then comfortable doing videos and posting them, you cant move around anyway unless someone is filming you haha.
When "new" people see me play they always ask am i a band? obviously i always say no, they always say what are you doing dude. they shit a brick when i say im self taught as well.
all this guitar talk has made me wanna play..

Okay, well, first thing first.
The simple reality is that, on some level, you just have to decide that you'd rather perform than chicken out. This doesn't sound like helpful advice, but when you do get over this hurdle - and you will - you'll realize that at some point it was just about deciding that you wanted to play more than you wanted to not play. You want to be the guy who gets over his fear more than you want to be the guy who bails. It's a decision that is in your power to make. You know what NOT playing in public feels like ... why not try something else?
The second thing is that you have to recognize that feelings aren't you. That panic isn't you. It's just a feeling. A lot of people in your position say things to themselves like "I am scared" - identifying with the problem. "I am freaking out." "I'm panicking." These are not useful thoughts. Even just changing it to "I feel scared" is different - you are recognizing the feeling as something separate from you. Hey, look, I see fear over there. I don't identify with it. It just is a thing.
Eckhart Tolle's book, "The Power of Now," and a meditation practice can really help you with this concept, which is very powerful.
Playing in public is a different skill than playing by yourself, and you'll only going to develop it by doing it. NOBODY is a guitar god the first time they step on stage. It doesn't happen. And sometimes you bomb.
It happens. You do it. You get over it. You go out there again. You ever see someone who bombs a show? Most of the time, they're laughing about it 20 minutes later.
The other thing you have to realize is that, in music (like in life) you get a lot of credit for showing up. You're not going to be a guitar god the first time you step on stage, but you know what? You'll be on stage. And that's better than 99% of the people in the room, who couldn't be bothered to learn a skill worth taking on stage to begin with. Life is a game where you can't win if you don't play.

http://www.cartographersguild.com/fi...-city-map.html might be of interest.
Started a new project for a friend of mine. He wanted a cliff city where a winged race of 'dragon-people' lived. The idea is that the city resides on top of miniature buttes in a river canyon with bridges going in between each district/butte. Not going to lie, I'm a little out of my element, but I figured it would be a productive challenge. I would love some advice on street layouts for this style of map.
Thank you! I remember seeing this awhile ago, but I couldn't think of the name.
One thing that I think of when it comes towns for winged races is that they are going to need room for take off and landings. I am not too sure that they would have streets as such as opposed to spaces around buildings. I do believe that they would walk from one building to another, but if they needed to go any distance they would most likely fly from their location to the next location, walking the least possible distance, and the buildings would be located to allow for their wingspan. Another consideration would be how accessible this town is to the "vertically immobile". If not then their really would be no need for bridges and the differences in butte heights can be much more drastic, and some of the locations could actually be located in the walls of the buttes. If there is some foot traffic there might be a specific area that is accessible to the foot traffic and others reserved for the winged.....
Just my two cents worth and I hope that it doesn't muddy the waters TOO much , and I look forward to seeing this progress.

No no, you make valid points. Like I said, I'm out of my element on this one, so advice is very welcome. For me, I like using streets to make organic flowing shapes and with this it's going to be hard to get that same flow. We had already decided that the city would be all over the buttes and the people would live a certain height based on their class in society. So, you will literally have an upper and lower class.
With the idea that the upper classes have easier access to open air. I like that.
Remember that streets arise from a flow of traffic, and that like businesses often group together in larger towns/cities for convenience of the owners and the customers. Following my earlier post, I think that these districts would still be grouped together and cater to foot traffic, but just think of the "streets" as being wider as well as the accesses to the building (clearing folded wings and all), and the Higher classed services being offered at the higher locations.
BTW, I really like the layout of the buttes and use of contours
Art Critic = Someone with the Eye of an Artist, Words of a Bard, and the Talent of a Rock.
Please take my critiques as someone who Wishes he had the Talent
What if they didn't enter the buildings from the street and the entrances were on the roofs? I'm guessing buildings would take on a more clustered configuration. Or perhaps you had nodes that buildings grouped around. Take for example, you have a large plaza roughly 60 to 70ft in diameter that serves as the take off and landing area and buildings grouped around that. With that, you could still have a street that leads in and out of each node.
Depending on their type of flight, access to a steep dropoff would likely be far more valuable than a flat area. Winds tend to flow up the sides of buttes like that, offering ready-made lift. A dropoff allows for getting airspeed by falling. So higher cliff-edge dwellings would be more valuable. Bridges connecting the two sides would likely have takeoff platforms or simply no railings to allow for quick flight.
Flat rooftop landings would likely be the most efficient means of entry, with ground-level entrances purely for trading purposes with the lesser races. Assuming the usual laziness of life-forms everywhere, there would likely be at least one elevator or lift system per butte to allow for moving heavier cargoes and people up to higher levels. Assuming some sort of racial claustrophobia, I would expect to see lots of external stairways connecting to bridges and jump-off points.
With magic, there might be lift towers (areas with permanent strong up-breezes) to let the people get to higher levels with less effort. Otherwise, a basic crane or powered rope loop (perhaps like a water-powered ski lift) would probably be present.
I think, based on what Waldronate and Korash have already said, you might want to check out the ancient Near East city of Catalhoyuk, in Anatolia. It was a city which didn't have streets (although it may have had shared courtyards. The buildings were built right up against each other, and access was through the roof. People could travel across the city by going (via ladders) from roof to roof. I can imagine this being used for your city (although, granted, it would be a challenge figuring out how to map it).
Catalhoyuk is a nice city, but the commissioner specifically asked for gothic style architecture in a grand city. I appreciate the input, though. I think I might go with a combination of the 'node' layout and roof entrances. The buildings along the cliffs will have special launch pads and the bridges will have no railings. Another feature I think will be useful is flags. Flags everywhere to display wind conditions

Glendale, AZ (Sports Network) - The United States women's national team
defeated Ireland for the second time in four days, claiming a 2-0 victory at
the University of Phoenix Stadium on Saturday.
The Americans squared off against the Irish at Jeld-Wen Field on Wednesday and
thrashed the European nation 5-0 on the back of a hat trick from Alex Morgan
and a brace from Sydney Leroux.
Morgan picked up where she left off, scoring less than two minutes into
Saturday's rematch.
The 23-year-old opened the scoring when she latched on to a through ball from
Shannon Boxx on the left side of the box and fired a left-footed shot past
Emma Byrne at the far post.
Morgan turned provider seven minutes before the break, setting up Megan
Rapinoe to double the U.S.'s advantage. Morgan broke free on the left and
made it to the endline, pulling a pass back to an unmarked Rapinoe at the
penalty spot to slam home the nail in the coffin with a one-time effort.
The U.S. has not lost a match since falling to 1-0 to Japan in the Algarve Cup
on March 5, its only loss in the calendar year thus far.
The Americans return to action with a friendly match against China on December

So far they hold true to all their statements so im sure it'll be fine. I do agree however that a game should ideally look BAD when on low settings and great on high settings to make sure it runs smooth for everyone.
OT: this looks amazing. Hope i can get into beta to see if i can run this game on my current 5 y/o PC, coz if i can't i need to get a new killer PC :P
Warrior, getting my face smashed in because I love it
"The Perfect Raid Design Drawn by me .
Engine looks cool. Also settings changing on the fly is very good thing. Not that I'n concerned about reloading game, but if you can tweak it right in the center of battle it is always nice to have =)
The only thing that limits graphics in beta is things being cut out, which makes the graphics worse (and look better in release) OR the debugging client that runs in the background which could possibly take up to 20% performance.
You can't just magically make things run better and keep using beta as an excuse, it's not that simple.

The most important thing to realize is, no matter what you experience you are never alone; no matter what you are struggling through, there is always someone who is more unfortunate.
It's Ok to Be Takei (Rank 35/ Fractal Level 22)
As for HD textures, it's hard to tell. We should wait till the next beta event, if they are not included in the game by then - speculations can proceed.
ive got a 6950 2gb, can i run full graphics or should i buy another one and CF? what's your guess?

If there is one step in the skin care process that is often forgotten, it is the essential step of regular exfoliation. This is necessary to remove dead skin cells that can build up and cause problems for the skin. Bliss Exfoliators are designed to polish the skin's surface, removing dead skin and impurities to leave the surface fresh and alive. Bliss Exfoliators get the skin squeaky clean, providing a smooth and purified canvas that is ready to accept treatment products and moisturizers. When there are impurities on the skin, it is very difficult for topical products to do their job since they have to penetrate through layers of crud in order to reach live cells. Bliss Exfoliators allow active ingredients to perform better by facilitating the absorption deep within the layers of the skin.
Bliss Exfoliators for the body make for a great preparation for the application of self tanners. When dead cells are eliminated, self tanners go on smoothly and tint the skin without streaking. This is a great way to ensure an even application with outstanding coverage. Bliss Exfoliators can also make the skin look smoother and reduce the appearance of imperfections such as dark patches and wrinkles.
Because exfoliation has so many different benefits, Bliss Exfoliators come in different varieties for multiple purposes.
Bliss Fat Girl Scrub is a unique skin polisher that works wonders on cellulite. The formula buffs off dead skin cells so that subsequent cellulite treatment products from Bliss can penetrate deeply and do their job at reducing the appearance of cottage cheese skin. For best results, follow with Bliss Love Handler, Bliss Fat Girl Slim or Bliss Fat Girl Sleep. Bliss Fat Girl Scrub is made with pink salts from the Himalayans. It has a refreshing cooling effect that wakes up tired skin. Massaging the product into the skin increases circulation to improve the appearance of a lumpy skin surface.
Regular exfoliation has multiple benefits for the face. Bliss Pore Perfecting Facial Polish is a gentle polishing product that contains very small granules with remove the dead skin cells which can cause dullness and breakouts. Bliss Pore Perfecting Facial Polish diminishes the appearance of enlarged pores by purging impurities. With regular use, the skin takes on a radiant glow with a more even surface texture. Bliss Pore Perfecting Facial Polish is ideal for oilier types wishing to control excess sebum.
An excess of dead skin cells can result in a rough and thickened surface on the body. Bliss Hot Salt Scrub self heats to give the body a pampering spa-like exfoliation treatment. It goes to work on the thickest, driest skin to leave a smooth and soft surface. Bliss Hot Salt Scrub contains eucalyptus and rosemary to soothe the senses and soften the skin.

"It could have easily been 4-3 with Milwaukee," head coach Armando Espinosa said, "To turn it around and win 6-1 was good. Marquette on the other hand, I thought we had opportunities to win and we just didn't capitalize."
Florida Atlantic defeated Bethune-Cookman last Saturday, 6-1, making the Owls 1-1 for the season. Bethune-Cookman is currently 2-4.
"We just have to keep hitting the ball," Espinosa said, "We can't just hope that the opponent is going to give you the match."
Play is scheduled to start Friday at 12 p.m. (CT).

The Importance of Good Water
At DOTW, we stress the importance of good water and ice. It's key to a good life and great cocktails! In the United States, it's something that we generally don't have to think about. I have to admit that I grew up drinking water from a fresh aquifer in the midwest and now live in San Francisco, which is renowned for its water quality. But that amazing San Francisco water has come at a price: … Read more

Logan, UT (Sports Network) - Kyisean Reed registered a double-double with 20
points and a game-high 12 rebounds as the Utah State Aggies posted a 79-72 win
over the Nicholls State Colonels as part of the World Vision Basketball
Challenge at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum.
Reed, who knocked down 7-of-9 shots from the floor, added four blocked shots
and three steals for the Aggies (7-1) as they ran their win streak to six in a
row. Also recording a double-double for the hosts was Jarred Shaw with 19
points and 11 boards, while Spencer Butterfield tacked on 14 points in the
The Colonels (1-6), losers of four straight, were paced by T.J. Carpenter who
tallied a game-high 23 points before fouling out. Fred Hunter responded with
17 points and 10 rebounds, Dantrell Thomas 13 points and 10 boards before
picking up his fifth personal foul. Off the bench, Amin Torres dropped in 10
points in 18 minutes of action.
Nicholls led by two points about four minutes into the contest, but the team
made a total of just eight field goals in the first half and soon found itself
trailing by a score of 43-22 at the break. USU made good on an impressive 57.7
percent from the floor through the first 20 minutes.
In the second half the Colonels battled back, outscoring the hosts by a 50-36

still fell by seven.
Utah State not only converted 55.3 percent from the field in the contest, it
also outscored the Colonels at the charity stripe, 23-13.
Both programs will be back in action on Friday as Utah State clashes with UC
Davis and the Colonels battle Southern Illinois.

I am just browsing thru the hosted demo version for newly launched Zimbra mobile client(HTML/iPhone).(5.0)
Based on my initial understanding i could find that this client uses simple http requests and consumes response in html format(where as standard client 5.0 uses SOAP/HTTP request and JSON response).
Please correct here if my understanding is wrong.
I have one query here,
Can I use the SOAP interfaces (from standard client 5.0) here in place of Http request genrated by mobile client.?
Any guidance or help in this area will help me a lot.
Thanking in advance.

Berlin Invades Thunder Valley Casino
Berlin Featuring Terri Nunn performed their first concert of 2012 at Thunder Valley Casino Resort's Pano Hall on Friday. Nunn put on an electrifying performance that had the crowd singing and dancing throughout the show.
First up though was Larisa Bryski, a Sacramento area native. Bringing her signature mix of classic rock, drizzled with a dollop of pop, Bryski kicked it into high gear from the start with "Butterflies."
Joining Bryski onstage was Willy Seltzer (guitar), Tommy Armstrong-Leavitt (guitar), Andrew Houston (bass), and Darrell Hale (drums).
Bryski did an awesome job getting the crowd jump started for Berlin. The band performed flawlessly with Tommy Armstrong-Leavitt stealing the show with his guitar work, as he effortlessly blasted out riff after riff.
After Bryski exhausted the crowd there was a quick intermission to make way for Berlin.
The new wave group Berlin took the stage with Nunn singing "Masquerade." As Nunn made her way to the front of the stage, I realized she was much taller than I remember "" if anyone has seen Nunn perform, you will realize this was a joke. For everyone else, let's just say she's small in stature, but makes up for it in personality and singing ability.
Nunn "'s vocals were pristine and downright awesome, sounding much like she did years ago when she originally recorded Berlin's chart topping "Take My Breath Away," from the movie Top Gun.
Talk about a ball of energy. She continued back and forth between band members, including the drummer, the whole time belting out hits including "A Matter of Time" and "The Metro."
The temperature in Pano Hall started to rise as things started to get steamy between Nunn and guitarist Carlton Bost, with Nunn sidling up to Bost and getting very in your face, or should I say in his face. It was quite a show and well worth the price of admission!
In addition to Bost there was Dave Schulz on keyboards and Chris Olivas on drums.
There was a touching moment when Nunn performed "Mom," a song she wrote and dedicated to her mother. She wrote the song after her mother had passed away.
Afterwards Nunn kicked it back up a notch and had the audience on their feet as she made her way through the crowd. Being a tad short, Nunn had some assistance getting up on a chair in the middle of Pano Hall so everyone could see her. As she made her way back to the stage, she asked a strapping young security guard to lift her up on stage. Once Nunn was safely on the stage, the security guard was rewarded with a big hug from Nunn.
Nunn's the real deal and is still going strong after all these years. She sounds and looks great and at 50 she's still a little hotty.

Just thought I would get a thread started to talk about the commercials throughout the game.
I bet a beer commercial will win the award for the best. Clydesdales still running also? And will an internet startup company spend all their advertising bucks on one commercial?

Great start to the commercials by Bud Light...

Pepsi ahead of Bud now.
lol, ok, bud light just took the best one back.
Bud has top two in my book so far...
Going on a cheese run.
Bud Light takes the lead
Bud has two good ones compared to Pepsi's one, but Pepsi's made me laugh more. I think Bud's first commercial was better.

Thats why you go look at the work first brother, for that exact reason. Wonder if the owner knows if that guy is recommending that fella, seems like a liability to me but who knows.
Just felt the need to vent to people. Me and a friend drove into Casper on the 18th to bowhunt lopes. My buddy shot a buck that probably will score 72-73 depending on shrinkage. Anyway we took his meat to dans meat in evansville. The skinner recomended a Exploding taxi guy to us, so we figured Ok well go look. Holly Crap this guys junk was so bad it made me want to laugh when I saw it. I am really P-ed off at that skinner for recommending that fella, went back to him and he said he was paying him to recommend people. Does that piss you guys off or just me...

Funny I dropped a buck on wednesday and I brought my meat to the same place, and the little troll looking fella hounded the crap out of me to get it mounted and bring to the guy you mentiond. Looked him up on the phone and definatly was like you said, so I have him frozen in the back of the pickup til my buddies done hunting this weekend and I will check some other local guys that I found. Oh, and yes it ticked me off too, am definatley suprised to see some one on here complaining about the same experience, hopefully the meat guy doesnt loose business cause of it.
I do all my own meat. Many years ago I took a couple of antelope and a deer to a processor in Casper and was really unhappy when I got home with it. I took really particular care with my meat. I always skin and quarter everything to cool it down and trim off any bloody tissue from the bullet. The processor was a little ticked because I had already skinned it as he lost his skinning fee. The meat was terrible...strong and pretty bad. I even found hair in the ground stuff. Pretty obvious I didn't get my own meat back. Last time I had anything done at a place I don't know something about in advance!

I called a processor in Casper the other day and asked about just having meat frozen for the ride back home. I'm like you CC, I take very good field care of my meat and am very careful with it. Don't want to get one somebody hauled around in the back of a hot pickup all day. I bring the skulls and capes back home too. Got a pretty fair taxidermist here that will swap a European mount for a good cape. The place I called was Pat's processing, the gent I spoke with said they could handle freezing the meat for me with no problem.
I took my antelope to Pats processing last fall, and had him keep our meat in his walk in cooler for 4 days while we checked out the rest of the state. When we got back, he hooked us up with a bunch of dry ice, and cut off the horns for us.. I think the total came to about $75 for 2 coolers full of meat, 2 horns cut off, and probably close to 25 pounds of dry ice. Not bad, considering the premium on cooler space in mid September.
Even around home I like to quarter my game and freeze the quarters, then take them to the locker 3 months after the last deer season closes. That way I'm sure I get my own meat back. After seeing how some people treat their game I wouldn't have it any other way. On trips I use dry ice and big coolers or if I take my Polaris Ranger and trailer I haul a smaller deep freeze on the front of the trailer and use it as a cooler, keeping it plugged in when possible.
I take a small 5 cu ft freezer with me and a small generator. Usually bone all the meat and freeze it for butchering when I get home.

The butcher I use in Casper debones the critter where it drops, loads it in my pack and carries it to the truck for me
The taxi knocks the horns off and sticks them in the flower pot by the front steps, not a great job but cheap!
Lucky for me I've been busted on every stalk so far this year
Flower pot of horns huh, yeah i looked at that Exploding fellas (not to mention hes a A-hole) work on my way back from the circus that is now elk hunting. Yeah it is as you described, needs lots more practice or drugs. Funny how few people actually look at there mounts, a taxi here showed me what to look for and everyone of my old mounts are just generic jobs. On one deer the right eye is 1-2 in higher than the left. I process my own meat anymore, to many horror stories, and bad meat. Havent had a bad piece yet doing it myself.

Sluggerrr's Birdhouse
One of the great things about the office is that you never who (or what) might show up. We receive interesting items at the office from fans throughout the Midwest and the United States…for instance, someone recently sent Zack Greinke a surfboard, which Zack put at his locker in the clubhouse. Yesterday we received a very special and unique gift, a Sluggerrr birdhouse.
The birdhouse featuring our lovable lion comes from Paul and Mildred Knodel of Colorado…they've done over 1,000 (our birdhouse has number 1,079 painted on the bottom). The Knodels pass their craft on to friends and family. They have donated over 500 of the birdhouses to Ronald McDonald House.
Sluggerrr has the day off today after the humid homestand. We know he will appreciate the birdhouse. We're waiting to see if he will allow Cardinals in his birdhouse.
