Lace again
The chart is in there. I am loathe to post it as it has a copright.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks everyone!
CRAPPY WEATHER. I work outside as long as I can bear it. The flat is halfway turned into a fiber studio, and looks like a tornado hit it. My current projects are mostly repair, BUT I got a coolish commission last night: To knit a pair of Christmas stockings from a 1930ish pattern for two young kids. Evidently granny has knit abot 30+ of these stockings for the family, but is too old to do it anymore, and the youngest are the only ones bereft. It's not hard: The pattern is poorly written, but I have a sample to work from...Just a long skinny stocking with chilren in intarsia, then a panel with santa, and then a panel with pine-trees before it becomes a standard stock bottom. What I stand to make from these will pay half a month's rent. AMEN! And, I borrowed a digital camera, soI can finally photograph some of my knit projects. Hoo hoo!
So I am making my first foray into lace and I am at a loss. How do I not do a stitch and carry the yarn with me in the squares that are marked as black boxes?
Hi guys~~~
I did post about the NEW "Warm Winter Exchange" last post!
Dead Line of "Warm Winter Exchange" is Nov 10 on Veterans Day! MAKE SURE SIGN UP for the COOL exchange coming cold winter!!!
INFO and RULEs are in my blog:
My Sock Wars death has arrived. Actually, I traveled to Portland this past weekend and met my killer, Grandcarriage.
Thanks, Bob, for killing me with such handsome gray socks.
For the next 30 days I'm going to go on a knitting fast. It's NaNoWriMo time! I've failed to complete it for the past two years... here's hoping for a new result (a minimal RSI)!
Wore my crazy new handknit socks last night. They are textured all the way around, and you know, I like the sensation of the texture underfoot. They felt fabulous but are a little loose, I could probably knit the same yarn on needles 2 sizes smaller. I think I will felt these a little and see how that does.
I wore the socks that killed me (SOCKWARS) last night to keep my tootsies warm (I am putting off turning on the heat in the flat: My electric bill goes from $28 a month to $128 a month, and that's just with having it on in the evening. OUCH!). They too, are a little too big: Kept falling off. So I have a question for you guys who felt: If you were to do partial felting for size: Would you hand wash it and let it felt in the hot dryer, taking it out and trying on the size as you go?
Hey Everyone!
I am looking for a hat pattern. I have decided that it is time to make myself a hat ... it is getting rather cold here in Maine... but I don't really know what I'm looking for.
What would you suggest?
I have been looking for a good board to block my sweater (yes I know I haven't even finished it yet) - but I am a shop-a-holic and love finding things - the more "stuff" I have relating to knitting, the happier I am! .... anyway, I found a great one - it's on this site:
it was costly, but I think it'll be the only one I'll ever have to buy - and it folds up!
I also found some cool tools called Knit Klips (I don't like when people use a "k" instead of the "c" in words just to be clever... (or should I say "klever") ick! :)
BUT the clips are cool! here's the site:
which are kind of like hair clips - they are used to attach pieces together and hold them in place (the same way a clothespin would) - as you are attaching the pieces. I ordered some of these as well (after looking at Wal Mart in the hair aisle at little hair clips and deciding they wouldn't work, and figuring out that clothespins are big and not very strong) - I'm waiting to get them -
I am a spending fiend! let's hope it all works out and is worth the investments!
Just thought I would put a little bit about what I am up to at the moment. I am in the middle of a pair of socks for my friend Clare. I am using self patterning Opal wool which comes out in Purple and mottled stripes (right up her street!). My next project is to copy a rather nice knitted jacket that is in one of the shops here. I want to move away from just following patterns to the letter and move into adapting them to fit my requirements. You never know it might work, and if it doesn't then all I have to do is rip it out and start again. Feel free to drop me a line if you are bored I will get back to you as soon as I can.
OK - I'm working on a sweater, and got the left side of the cardigan done - it's mostly knit and purl, (stockinette) with a ribbed border - of 8 stitches of knit or purl (row 1: k, row 2: k, row 3: p, row 4: p, and so on) - which makes a nice band on the inside most part of the jacket (where the buttons would go) -- I followed the pattern, k1, k2tog, then, to decrease on the "band" side of the sweater, (on the knit row and inside the stockinette part of the pattern), I did an SSK - which decreases the field of the cardigan and moves the "band" closer to the shoulder... (gosh I hope this makes sense) .. anyway, it turned out great. NOW I am doing the right side of the cardigan, and it says only to reverse all pattern and directions for the opposite side. Being the newbie knitter I am, I had made a chart of the hundred or so rows that were done on the left side - so I went to my computer and plugged it all in for the right side and I'm following it along, minding my own business... everything looks great until I get to the place where I need to start decreasing, and doing the SSK.... it seems that all the decreasing, etc, appears to be on the PURL row - and I thought I wasn't supposed to do anyting like that on the purl row... well, it was 10 at night on Sunday and I wanted to try it - the worst that could happen is my friends at the LYS would rip it out for me and help me find my way again - it seems to have worked fairly well - I made up my own SSP kind of stitch and although it looks a tiny bit sloppy I think it's OK -

Ma'am i just want to ask you if i can include some of your reviews and photos of Aurora Province...Im an IT student and we're working with our tourist site...I hope for your kind consideration God bless you ma'am
Hi! This is a great tip! Where can we rent bikes like these to go around in Baler? Do they have a side car version too, for those who dont know how to drive or are afraid to sit behind someone? Many thanks!
Re: Pacific Coral Inn and Restaurant. Haven't heard of that, maybe we'll check it out next time we're there (next week, if plans don't miscarry). Might I add Gerry's Best, in the town proper. About at par with Bay's Inn food, same price range.
What a holiday Milet!! You guys certainly had a lovely time, well apart from your accident. Love the beach pix!! Ann :o)
I looked thru ur page today Milet. Very interesting and beautiful area. I think I'd prefer 4x4 over motorcycle (safer). The big wave surfing must be something to see too. Take care....
HI Milet, very nice page, and the pics in it are wonderful, you are a great photographer.
Great page Milet! Baler looks like a wonderful place to visit! Of cours I love your sunrise photos :-))) And thank God you were not seriously hurt in that accident!

I purchased the first re-charge kit for my husband after watching him struggle with all the batteries the Light Cannon requires. This makes life so much easier especially during a week long liveaboard trip.

We purchased this UK Light Cannon to add with our the other one had got a couple years ago. The beams are so bright and clear underwater it looks like something from Star Wars during a night dive. We needed two to place on our underwater video camera. They are heavy but worth it. Do yourself a favor and get the recharable kit.

What's new in transfer pricing
KPMG wins International Tax Review Awards for TWO consecutive years.
China's tax authorities may have previously been more concerned with providing a favourable business environment to attract multinational companies than with collecting taxes; however, times are changing. With many foreign companies reporting low profitability upon the expiration of their tax holidays, transfer pricing has increasingly come under the spotlight.
Enforcement of transfer pricing rules is becoming more aggressive, making preparation crucial. Is your business ready to meet these challenges? KPMG's Global Transfer Pricing Services (GTPS) can help.
KPMG China will work with you to help reduce tax-related risks and the costs of inter-company transactions. In addition, the transfer pricing planning and dispute resolution services offered by our offices focus on achieving regulatory compliance and tax efficiency. Our multi-disciplinary approach helps provide you with effective transfer pricing strategies across the region and the world.
KPMG's 2012 Global Transfer Pricing Review, based on a 2011 survey by KPMG International member firms' transfer pricing practices, is designed to help multinational companies stay current with transfer pricing rules worldwide.
Transfer Pricing Forum, one of BNA International's special publications, provides detailed practical guidance on technical and often highly contested transfer pricing issues.

Throughout the years I've heard some whisperings about writer Andrew Vachss as an author to read. He writes hard boiled mysteries with a pretty tough subject matter: the abuse of children. That alone will put most readers off. I think I can tolerate tough subject matters reasonably well as long as it's done right. However, nothing a writer can pen on paper can outdo real life horrors. Vachss did an interview for the last book in the series where he said he wrote the Burke novels to raise anger along with awareness. Flood, published in 1985, is the first book in the Burke series and I'm sorry to say that the story was flat and boring and I set it aside after reading 15% of it's 400 pages.
Flood is a story of revenge and it is also the name of the woman (she specializes in martial arts) who comes looking for Burke to help her track down a child rapist with a military background. The search proves rather difficult and the story mostly focused on Flood and Burke tracking him down.
While the plot is a good one in theory, the telling of it wasn't all that great of an experience for me. The strongest criticism I have is for the main protagonist, Burke. I didn't believe in his character at all. There were just too many instances where I was going "give me a break" while he was doing his thing. His backstory, doled out to us in bits, shows him as another victim of the system who has learned how to use the system to his advantage. He's been to prison several times and is a self-described survivalist.
Despite much of what Burke is said to be on paper, I had a hard to believing any of it. He had convenient connects everywhere. His reputation on the New York streets seems to always bring him shady business. He's supposed to be a private detective but behaves more like a scam artist. He's often acting like a phony cop or a phony lawyer. He's not quite a good guy but isn't all bad either. He can go into a murderous rage anytime he runs across a child who is a victim of a predator. There's some interesting aspects of his personality and life but a lot of it was overkill and a huge distraction.
Blame my mood or what have you but Burke was just too much for me to read and accept. The first person narrative proved to be problematic as well because it made me tire of him rather quickly. Another criticism was that the side stories weren't all that interesting. Mostly they were used to show off Burke's cunning and muscle. I'm not interested in any of that. The author is also a dog lover so we are never without some mention of Pansy whether it's feeding him or giving him water. I don't mind stories about characters with pets but in this instance the constant mention can be quite tiresome.
In the end the story became a chore to read and I set it aside. There was just too many derailments. If this book just focused on the main plot then I might have finished this book but when the story started to veer off in another direction for the nth time well, I closed the book and said "enough" at the 15% mark. At the end of it all, this wasn't the outcome/response I was expecting so color me surprised that I didn't enjoy this story more. This was a DNF and a costly one, too. Of course, if you've enjoyed these novels, I'd love to hear from you. I don't think I'll be reading anymore in the series.
Interesting to note that on Amazon, this book (at time of this writing) has a total of 59 reviews and almost all of them are mainly positive. I went straight down to the few negative reviews and found one that explained my thoughts of this book (at least from the start!) perfectly.

Here is my setup:
- Site with lots of Posts
- Each Post is a member of multiple Categories (I'll call them Cat1, Cat2, Cat3, etc)
- I want the Next/Previous to cycle through all Posts in Cat1 (regardless of what other Categories it is in) and then echo "This is the last Post in this Section" when it reaches the last Post in Cat1.
- But I then want it to do the same thing for all the Posts in Cat2 (regardless of what other Categories it is in), and for Cat3 and so on
I was doing this in v.2.3 of this plugin by setting in_same_cat to true, setting the ex_cats_method to diff and then listing all the Categories I wanted it to ignore in ex_cats.
With v.2.4 and the introduction of in_cats I thought this would make my life easier. I would just list the Categories I wanted it to key on instead of listing all the Categories to exclude (a much longer list). But when using in_cats, the ex_cats_method seems to be ignored. So when I get to the last post in Cat1 it goes right on to Cat2 instead of echoing my "This is the last Post in this Section" line.
Am I just thinking of this fundamentally wrong (trying to use in_cats and ex_cats_method at the same time) or is it possible and I've just coded it wrong?

Space Acquisitions:
DOD Faces Substantial Challenges in Developing New Space Systems
GAO-09-705T: Published: May 20, 2009. Publicly Released: May 20, 2009.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:

(202) 512-4859
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Despite a growing investment in space, the majority of large-scale acquisition programs in the Department of Defense's (DOD) space portfolio have experienced problems during the past two decades that have driven up cost and schedules and increased technical risks. The cost resulting from acquisition problems along with the ambitious nature of space programs has resulted in cancellations of programs that were expected to require investments of tens of billions of dollars. Along with the cost increases, many programs are experiencing significant schedule delays--at least 7 years--resulting in potential capability gaps in areas such as positioning, navigation, and timing; missile warning; and weather monitoring. This testimony focuses on (1) the condition of space acquisitions, (2) causal factors, and (3) recommendations for better positioning programs and industry for success. In preparing this testimony, GAO relied on its body of work in space and other programs, including previously issued GAO reports on assessments of individual space programs, common problems affecting space system acquisitions, and DOD's acquisition policies.
Estimated costs for major space acquisition programs have increased by about $10.9 billion from initial estimates for fiscal years 2008 through 2013. In several cases, DOD has had to cut back on quantity and capability in the face of escalating costs. Several causes behind the cost growth and related problems consistently stand out. First, DOD starts more weapon programs than it can afford, creating competition for funding that, in part, encourages low cost estimating and optimistic scheduling. Second, DOD has tended to start its space programs before it has the assurance that the capabilities it is pursuing can be achieved within available resources. GAO and others have identified a number of pressures associated with the contractors that develop space systems for the government that have hampered the acquisition process, including ambitious requirements and shortages of technical expertise in the workforce. Although DOD has taken a number of actions to address the problems on which GAO has reported, additional leadership and support are still needed to ensure that reforms that DOD has begun will take hold.

The InstinctQ will be Samsung's first Android phone to carry the Instinct brand as well as the company's first Instinct-branded QWERTY device. It's planned for a launch with Sprint which would make it a great compliment for Sprint's upcoming Hero. Unfortunately, it appears to run the generic Android interface which pales in comparison to HTC's SenseUI. There isn't much information available on the actual specs of the device, but we can assume that it will sport the usual 528MHz Qualcomm processor and 256MB of RAM. It's unknown whether the InstinctQ will have large internal storage space or if they will opt for an expandable microSD slot. It will more than likely be the latter, if just to keep costs down. The InstinctQ was initially rumored to be released October 11 for Sprint, but seeing the lack of launch details, or even a formal announcement, it's more likely that it's looking at a November or December launch.

Population: 32.9 million (12.0 million under 18)
Government Armed Forces: 137,500
Compulsary Recruitment Age: 19
Voluntary Recruitment Age: unclear
Voting Age: 18
Optional Protocol: not signed
Other Treaties: GC AP I, GC AP II, CRC, ILO 138, ILO 182, ACRWC
Although the voluntary recruitment age remained unclear, children did not appear to have been recruited into government armed forces.
Algeria continued to be affected by the legacy of violent internal conflict of the 1990s which, by the end of 2006, had claimed over 200,000 lives. A process of National Reconciliation was under way, under which the government introduced amnesty measures, exemptions and impunity for past human rights abuses by government forces and former armed group members.1 Fighting between armed groups and government security forces persisted and violence continued throughout 2007.2 The government continued its military campaign against armed groups which it claimed were aligned with al-Qaeda, and carried out search operations in which alleged armed group members were killed. There were concerns that women and children related to armed group members were also killed.3
The Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat (Groupe Salafiste de Predication et de Combat, GSPC), an offshoot of the now defunct Armed Islamic Group (Groupe islamique armé, GIA), announced in September 2006 that it had joined forces with al-Qaeda and at the start of 2007 officially renamed itself as the al-Qaeda Organization in the Islamic Maghreb. This was accompanied by increased attacks against commercial and military targets in 2007.4 Following the April 2007 suicide bomb attacks claimed by the GSPC in Algiers, in which some 30 people were killed, an estimated 80 Algerian men, many of whom were thought to have received training in Iraq, were arrested by Algerian authorities.5
According to press reports, there were incidents in 2006 involving the kidnapping and rape of girls by armed groups. In May 2006 the bodies of 22 children were found in the province of Jijel. They were alleged to have been used as human shields by the GSPC.6
National recruitment legislation and practice
The legal basis for conscription into the regular armed forces remained the National Service Code. Algerian men were liable for 18 months compulsory conscription between the ages of 19 and 30, and an additional six months service as a reservist up to the age of 50. Some 375,000 young men were estimated as reaching military service age annually.7 Evading conscription was punishable by a five-year prison sentence in accordance with Article 254 of the Algerian Military Justice Code.8
The minimum age for voluntary recruitment into the armed forces or paramilitary forces was unclear.9
Armed Groups:
Paramilitaries and militias
As part of its National Reconciliation initiative the government began dismantling government-allied paramilitary groups and local militias. In May 2004 the Algerian government endorsed the demobilizing of half the 300,000 members of the Legitimate Defence Force (GLD), the self-defence militias established in 1997 under Executive Decree.10
Armed opposition groups
In May 2007 the purported leader of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb released a recorded statement urging the youth of Algeria to join the growing rank of martyrs.11 It was not known whether armed groups recruited or used under-18s.
In October 2005 the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child expressed serious concern over the alleged cases of persons under 18 years of age being used by government-allied paramilitary forces and armed political groups, and over deficiencies in the birth registration system for children belonging to nomadic minorities. The Committee expressed deep concern over the situation of Western Saharan children living in refugee camps in Algeria.12
A bill on child protection (Code de protection de l'enfant) was introduced and was expected to harmonize existing laws pertaining to the protection and promotion of child rights.13

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Michelin's new Pilot Road 4 tyre gets a taste of the ever-changing UK weather
I'VE HAD Michelin's new Pilot Road 4s fitted to my '05 KTM 660 SMC for the past month, and so far I'm seriously impressed.
I've always fitted my bikes with dedicated sports tyres. I do most of my miles through the summer so I figured it's worth getting something as 'sticky' as possible. Mistake number one.
My old Continental ContiAttack SM tyres performed brilliantly, in perfect conditions. I had them fitted for several trackdays over 2013's warm summer and they were flawless. The rear never broke loose and the front end gave me loads of feedback, enough so that I didn't lose it at Graham Hill Bend when it started to tuck.
But there lies the problem. If you hadn't given them several warm-up laps on a scorching hot trackday, they were fairly uninspiring. The rear tyre would spin at the sight of moisture and the front wouldn't instill any confidence. And it might be a sad reality, but those are the conditions you'll be encountering 99% of the time. Sunny weather and dry high-friction surfaces don't usually pave the way to the workplace, not where I live anyway.
Whilst the new Michelins were being fitted by FWR, the heavens opened up. I always knew the PR4's would perform much better in the wet than semi-slicks. But when I eventually got to ride on them, it was the feedback they delivered, and not just the grip, that had me gobsmacked.
Surprisingly, they felt much harder than any tyre I've ridden on before, but I could feel they had tons of grip on offer. The 660 SMC has a decent amount of torque and fairly short gear ratios, so it's not hard to either break traction or lift the front wheel up, but I couldn't get the rear to spin.
I was giving it handfuls of throttle in second gear, in the rain, and nothing would happen but acceleration. I would try and catch it out with a dab of front brake to unload the rear tyre and then more throttle, but again, nothing would happen other than forward momentum.
I waited to find a particularly wet and glossy patch of tarmac to abuse the rear on. I saw an ideal patch, slowed to 20mph and gave it a handful of throttle and dropped the clutch. The rear tyre gripped, the front wheel lifted, absolutely no dramas whatsoever. And this was in the wet, under three miles from the garage, so a big middle-finger-up to the recommended break-in period. And the warm-up period for that matter too.
And front-end grip was no different either. I never gave the Brembo brakes enough of a workout to lock the front tyre, but grip at the front was predictable and progressive under braking.
I've now had a play in the dry too and really get on with the tyre's profile. It's not aggressive, it feels rounded but retains that flickable feel, and I didn't notice it to be any slower-steering than any other sports tyres I've ridden on.
I'm yet to try the PR4's on track, but given how well the Pilot Road 3's handled Spa Francorchamps and Brands Hatch on a 2011 ZX-10R, I can't imagine there'll be any issues with the new model.
If your bike currently lives on a diet of Pirelli Supercorsa SP's or similar, but you ride in all-weather, give the Michelins a go. You won't be disappointed.

Ski Full Tilt 3D Free
Alpenglow Games
- April 19, 2012
( 596)
Full Tilt Ski 3D is an active skiing game that simulates real mountain terrain and requires you to lean and tilt your device and your body. It lets you use easy tilt movements to carve turns, race down a colouir, explore infinite terrain, gather coins and execute big air jumps where you try to pull off fancy tricks for points. The position of your device when you load the game determines the neutral position. Tilt forward to accelerate, tilt back to brake and side to side to carve turns and let the snow fly. Try putting on ski gear, attach a device to your body and be the mountain!
You can choose between two levels;
1) Single Run: This is a race against the clock, where you try to outrun and dodge huge boulders all the way down to the finish line while avoiding steep rock walls as you ski down a tight colouir to the finish line.
2) Infinite Run: Do jumps and land difficult tricks for bonus points without wiping out. Grab as many coins as you can to gain points while dodging fast moving rocks that could ragdoll you until your head spins.
Terrible! Being legit,it doesn't even deserve one star. This is the bummiest game I've played in my life...it's not even funny! It always lags and the dude skiing stops all the time for no apparent reason! You guys need to fix this it's ridiculous!
MesLab Shity game dont like it a lot of bugs and lags... My tab is 2Ghz dual core.. Lol... Wtf?
Can't see trees!? I keep stopping for no apparent reason, except after I managed to get moving again the camera would pass thru a tree I hadn't seen. Also several times now, I've gone off the cliff going pretty fast, and my guy just keeps falling off the bottom forever and I have to restart.
Quit and back don't work Archos 80 G9 tablet running ICS. Quit button and back button don't work. Mediocre game play hence 3 stars but has potential.
Could be good... It isn't. Tilt works from horizontal position. I hold my tablet in a near vertical position. I shouldn't have to tilt the device more than 90 degrees to get the skier to move.
Air Stupid app never knew I could ski on air haha that needs to be fixed Sony Ericsson play

Hamas: We'll Kidnap More Soldiers if Israel Doesn't Show Flexibility
Hamas leader Meshal tells Sydney Morning Herald Western bid to isolate Hamas is 'wrong approach.'
Damascus-based Hamas political leader Khaled Meshal on Friday told the Sydney Morning Herald that Israel should show more flexibility in the face of Hamas demands in exchange for captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit, or otherwise risk more of its troops being abducted by Hamas.
Shalit was kidnapped by militants in the Gaza Strip, ruled by Hamas, in a cross-border raid in 2006. Hamas has demanded the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, some of them directly involved in the murder of Israeli citizens, from Israeli prisons in return for Shalit's freedom.
In the interview with the Australian daily conducted from Meshal's bunker south of Damascus, the Hamas leader called on U.S. President Barack Obama to radically modify American foreign policy in the Middle East. In light of his predecessor's "failure in the region," Meshal pleaded that Washington not leave the Middle East peace process solely in the hands of regional players, stressing that only the U.S. could affect any real change in Israel's policies.
"We're willing to open a new page with the U.S. and Europe," Meshal was quoted by the Herald as saying. "Obama will continue to repeat the mistakes of those who went before him unless there is a marked change."
The Hamas leader expanded on the organization's desire to open a "new page," but did not mean that Hamas will do the opening, but rather that Hamas required the U.S. and the European Union to open a new page with the Islamists.
"I don't mean that Hamas will take a new [policy] position. I'm talking about a readiness on our part to deal with Washington and Europe. But they have to be serious about dealing with us on Palestinian rights," he was quoted as saying.
Meshal stressed in the interview his view that the West must abandon its decision to isolate Hamas until the Islamist group succumbs to the dictates of the West in terms of its relations with Israel, saying "They've been trying the wrong way and the wrong approach."
He criticized Obama's appointment of special Mideast envoy George Mitchell, who has already visited the region twice since his appointment, saying the appointment could have no more than a minor affect, because he is not authorized to speak with Hamas. "Would he have succeeded in Belfast if he was ordered to ignore the IRA?" Meshal asked the Herald interviewer.
Meshal also criticized Mitchell's colleague, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, over her repeated warnings to the world to keep donations meant for the rebuilding of Gaza, following Israel's three-week offensive, out of the "wrong hands."
"Despite all this, Hamas has advanced and grown, [so] within the logic of real politick, it is Washington that must reconsider its position if they want to achieve an outcome that is not failure," the Hamas leader concluded.

Anonymous asked: Tell us what that dark souls 2 rumor was, you press sneak fuck
The rumor was that the director of Dark Souls didn't return for Dark Souls II because he's busy working on…Demon's Souls II, an idea so deliciously stupid you can't help but love it.
I don't know anymore about this than anyone else in the internet, so large grain of salt here.
It's being turned into a WiiU exclusive. Nintendo are proud to announce that with titles such as Bayonetta 2 and Dark Souls 2, they hope they can capture the "hardcore" gamer's hearts.
Id buy a WiiU if they had darksouls 2 as an exclusive..
doubtful, lots of people are fans of saying "too bad i don't have a wii u" when a game comes out on it that they want. ;)

We not only adhere to the highest industry standards, we strive to be the industry leader in the home improvement related services we provide. We also use state-of-the-art products and technology which are designed to fix your home. We are the authorized Basement Systems dealer in Clackamas, OR.
The Koch's were experiencing sagging, bouncy floors in the middle of their home floor plan. After a few half attempts to shim underneath the post supports, there was constant readjusting and tweaking to make. This was a very strenuous task every month. As they searched for a new, more permanent solution, they called TerraFirma and asked about Smart Jacks. Smart Jacks are a simple but highly effective solution to support floor posts with little continual adjusting. A perfect solution for hard to enter craw spaces or hard to reach floor posts.
After Installation of a 4 Smart Jack system, the floor is now supported more permanently, in need of less "touch up" adjusting and the floor doesn't sag or bounce anymore. If desired, smart jacks are easily adjustable for more support or lift. The Koch's are now happy to have a well supported floor and are not shy to host parties or invite the family over.
Dennis T. owns an office building in Central Point, OR. He started to notice that some water was starting to leak into the basement. He went in search of someone to help him. While looking through the phone book he came across an ad for TerraFirma Foundation Systems.
Within a week, the office sent out their sales representative Patrick Dunn. He recommended several products that could remediate the situation. The first thing he recommended was having a Triple Safe Sump Pump installed. This system provides two sump pumps, along with a battery back up sump pump, for ultimate protect. Ryan also suggested installing the WaterGuard system, which is installed along the perimeter of the basement to catch incoming water seepage and direct it towards the sump pump. To add additional protect, they installed a SaniDry Upright system. This unit will dehumidify and filter the air in the basement at the same time.
Dennis can now run his business knowing that the basement is protected from any water coming into it.
Local Central Point, OR residents, Claire and William M, began to notice that their crawl space had more moisture than usual. They started searching for a company that could help them fix it. While at a home show, they came across TerraFirma Foundation Systems and filled out information to be contacted.
Within a few weeks they sent out Ryan Thomas to do a thorough inspection of the crawl space. He recommended that CleanSpace be installed. This system in installed on the walls and floors to prevent vapor from seeping through the walls and floor and into the crawl space. Along with a Crawl-o-Sphere, which would further protect from moisture, the crawl space will no longer have moisture in it. Ryan also recommended that they install SilverGlo insulation. This insulation serves a duel purpose, resisting heat conduct and it also creates a radiant barrier that would stop any heat from leaving the crawl space, ultimately reducing energy costs. Finally, Ryan suggested installing a Turtle crawl space access well. This access well provides an airtight cover that creates easy access into the crawl space.
Claire and William no longer worry about moisture entering their crawl space after having TerraFirma Foundation Systems out.
When Christine B of Central Point, OR started to notice that her floors were sloping and the doors were hard to close, she realized that she had a problem with her foundation. While driving in the car with the radio, on she heard an ad for a company that could help her.
Christine contacted TerraFirma Foundation Systems to find out what they could do to help her. They sent out their sales rep Ryan Thomas to do an inspection of her home. After doing a full inspection of the house, Ryan recommended that they install Smart Jacks. These jacks are installed in the crawl space to provide supplement support for the failing structure. They will also lift the failing floor up to restore it to their original position.
Now, with the Smart Jacks installed, the floor is no longer sloping and the doors are back to their original position. Christine can now walk through her home with no worry.

Forget Carmel or Zionsville — if you consider yourself part of the middle class, you should live here.
Johnson County ranked No. 1 out of eight counties in a list by CNNMoney. The "Where the Middle Class Does Best" ranking considered numerous factors, such as jobs, schools and proximity to grocery stores.
And with that ranking, Johnson County has gone viral locally. The story was posted on Yahoo! and has been shared more than 2,000 times on Facebook, Twitter and other social media outlets.
"This is great exposure for the county; but more importantly, it demonstrates what we've been saying for a long time: Johnson County is a great place to live," Johnson County Commissioner Ron West said.
West said he wasn't shocked by the ranking, saving that reaction for people he knows in Hamilton County.
Traffic problems were not one of the factors considered in the rankings, but the topic was highlighted by local officials. West occasionally has to travel north of Indianapolis for business, driving up Interstate 69 near communities in Hamilton County, including Fishers and Noblesville.
"It's just bumper to bumper," he said. "I don't know how people deal with that every day."
Johnson County's closeness to Indianapolis landed it on the short list of counties. A county had to be within 20 miles of a large city and have a population of 10,000 or more to be considered for the rankings. The median household income had to be close to the national average, and the county had to be below the national average in unemployment, poverty and inequality levels.
Johnson County's 5.3 percent unemployment rate is below the 6.7 percent national level. The local household median income is $60,835, which is nearly $12,000 more than the national average.
CNN highlighted the county's diverse economy as a reason for its selection. Greenwood's retail and dining options and Franklin's manufacturing industry were noted in the story.
"I think we do have diversity and a number of vibrant communities that play off the benefits of one another," said Cheryl Morphew, president of the Johnson County Development Corp. "You may look at other counties and see the strong presence of one city, and that's it."
Stable housing prices, low crime rates and good schools are the three main drawing points for Johnson County, West said.
"When people are looking for a place to live, those are the things they will consider the most," he added.
Low property taxes, minimal crime and numerous retail options make Greenwood an attractive place to live, Mayor Mark Myers said.
"You have affordable housing, but it's also nice housing," he said.
Franklin Mayor Joe McGuinness highlighted the entertainment options in the county, such as events hosted at Franklin College. But if someone wants to attend an Indiana Pacers or Indianapolis Colts game, it's only about a 30-minute drive to Indianapolis.
"I think we have small-town charm in a thriving community that continues to grow," he said.
The ranking can be used in marketing materials to businesses considering relocating to the area, officials said.
"The best thing we can do is not convince the rest of the world this is the best place to live but improve on those things, and people will notice," West said. "Just like CNN did."

Volume 78, Issue 6, June 2010
Basketballs as spherical acoustic cavities78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3290176View Description Hide Description
The sound field resulting from striking a basketball is found to be rich in frequency content, with over 50 partials in the frequency range of 0–12 kHz. The frequencies are found to closely match theoretical expectations for standing wave patterns inside a spherical cavity. Because of the degenerate nature of the mode shapes, explicit identification of the modes is not possible without internal investigation with a microphone probe. A basketball proves to be an interesting application of a boundary value problem involving spherical coordinates.
A computer controlled pendulum with position readout78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3281067View Description Hide Description
We have designed and constructed a physical pendulum that allows us to demonstrate its behavior for a variety of forces and initial conditions. All parameters in the equation of motion can be defined by the user. The apparatus can demonstrate phenomena ranging from simple undamped harmonic oscillations to chaotic behavior. The position of the pendulum and the derived quantities such as the velocity and acceleration can be stored for later analysis.
Large scale scanning probe microscope: Making the shear-force scanning visible78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3319657View Description Hide Description
We describe a demonstration of a scanning probe microscope with shear-force tuning fork feedback. The tuning fork is several centimeters long, and the rigid fiber is replaced by a toothpick. By scaling this demonstration to visible dimensions the accessibility of shear-force scanning and tuning fork feedback is increased.
Wildfires and animal extinctions at the Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3192770View Description Hide Description
Persuasive models of the ejection of material at high velocities from the Chicxulub asteroidimpact marking the Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary have led to the conclusion that upon return, that material, heated in passage through the upper atmosphere, generated a high level of infrared energy density over the Earth's surface. That radiant energy has been considered to be a direct source of universal wildfires, which were presumed to be a major cause of plant and animal species extinctions. The extinction of many animal species, especially the dinosaurs, has also been attributed to the immediate lethal effects of the radiation. I find that the absorption of the radiation by the atmosphere, by cloud formations, and by ejecta drifting in the lower atmosphere reduced the radiation at the surface to a level that cannot be expected to have generated universal fires. Although the reduced radiation will have likely caused severe injuries to many animals, such insults alone seem unlikely to have generated the overall species extinctions that have been deduced.
On random search: Collection kinetics of Paramecia into a trap embedded in a closed domain78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3293976View Description Hide Description
We study the kinetics of a large number of organisms initially spread uniformly in a circular two-dimensional medium, at the center of which a smaller circular trap has been introduced. We take advantage of the acidophily of Paramecium caudatum, which, coming from a neutral medium, penetrates a region of moderate acidity but moves back in the opposite situation when it meets a sharp negative acidity gradient to quantify its rate of irreversible aggregation into a spot of acidified medium in water. Two regimes are distinguished: A ballistic regime characteristic of "fresh" paramecia where the organisms swim in a straight path with a well defined velocity and a Brownian regime characteristic of older paramecia where the mean free path of the organisms is smaller than the system size. Both regimes are characterized by distinct aggregation laws. They both result from a pure random trapping process that appears to have no adaptive strategy.
Simulating a one-dimensional plasma78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3290442View Description Hide Description
We describe a dynamical model of a one-dimensional plasma and present a simple algorithm for simulating the model on a computer. We use the algorithm to perform several numerical experiments that illustrate collective effects in plasma physics such as Debye screening and plasma oscillations.
The influence of the Yarkovsky effect on the global temperature78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3285974View Description Hide Description
We present an analytic model for the diurnal Yarkovsky effect. This effect is the rebound force, felt by a celestial body, because of its own nonisotropic emission of infrared radiation. As an illustration, we investigate how the Yarkovsky effect influences the energy balance of a celestial body and thus its average surface temperature.
Strain in layered zinc blende and wurtzite semiconductor structures grown along arbitrary crystallographic directions78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3291214View Description Hide Description
We present a simple approach to the evaluation of strain in zinc blende and in wurtzite layered semiconductorstructures. These crystallographic structures are of particular interest because of their importance in optoelectronic device applications. The composite layered materials are currently grown pseudomorphically on substrates, which dictate the strain in the layers. Components of the strain are derived for arbitrary crystallographic growth directions. The strain in the layer determines the piezoelectric field in each layer in the structure. The strain and the strain-induced electric field are important in designing layered heterostructures with specific electronic energy levels for device applications. The methods presented are more generally applicable to other crystallographic structures and composite pseudomorphically grownmaterials. Illustrative problems and solutions are included.
Energy flow lines and the spot of Poisson–Arago78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3291215View Description Hide Description
We show how energy flow lines answer the question about diffraction phenomena posed in 1818 by the French Academy: "Deduce by mathematical induction the movements of the rays during their crossing near the bodies." The use of energy flow lines provides a complementary answer to Fresnel's wave theory of light. A numerical simulation of the energy flow lines shows that they can reach the bright spot of Poisson–Arago in the shadow center of a circular opaque disk. For a monochromatic wave in vacuum, these energy flow lines correspond to the diffracted rays of Newton's Opticks.
Application of DVD/CD pickup optics to microscopy and fringe projection78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3293132View Description Hide Description
We discuss a low-cost microscope that is constructed using commercial DVD and CD pickups and demonstrate its fine focus capacity and high resolution. Also, we demonstrate a fringe projection interferometer that uses the three-beam positioning system of a CD reader. We show that with a simple rotation of the grating placed inside the pickup head, an electrically controlled fringe-shift system is obtained, which can be used for 3D profilometry. Despite the low cost of these systems, they have a performance comparable to more complex systems.
Derivation of the Boltzmann principle78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3298372View Description Hide Description
We derive the Boltzmann principle based on classical mechanical models of thermodynamics. The argument is based on the heat theorem and can be traced back to the second half of the 19th century in the works of Helmholtz and Boltzmann. Despite its simplicity, this argument has remained almost unknown. We present it in a contemporary, self-contained, and accessible form. The approach constitutes an important link between classical mechanics and statistical mechanics.
High-altitude free fall revised78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3298375View Description Hide Description
This paper considers a model of free fall in the troposphere (altitude of up to 11 km) that takes into account the decrease of the air density, temperature, and the speed of sound. Two cases are analyzed: The maximum speed is less than Mach 0.8 (subsonic fall) for which the drag coefficient is constant, and the maximum speed exceeds Mach 0.8 (transonic and supersonic fall) for which the drag coefficient depends on the speed. The equation of motion is solved analytically for subsonic fall, and the range of validity of the solution is found. The solution for supersonic fall in the troposphere is found for the free fall of a bomb. The drag coefficient function is obtained by a least square fit to measured data, and the differential equation is solved numerically.
Reflection above the barrier as tunneling in momentum space78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3298428View Description Hide Description
Quantum mechanics predicts an exponentially small probability that a particle with energy greater than the height of a potential barrier will reflect from the barrier in violation of classical expectations. This process can be regarded as tunneling in momentum space, leading to a simple derivation of the reflection probability.
On a concavity property of the ground state in quantum mechanics78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3308567View Description Hide Description
The concavity of the ground-state energy as a function of the coupling constant of the perturbation is shown using Ritz's variational principle. The derivation is simple and general, and the result is a useful tool for checking the accuracy of standard approximations such as perturbation theory and variational methods.
Gauge transformation through an accelerated frame of reference78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3290866View Description Hide Description
The Schrödinger equation of a charged particle in a uniform electric field can be specified in either a time-independent or a time-dependent gauge. The wave functions in these two gauges are related by a phase factor reflecting the gauge symmetry of the problem. We show that the effect of such a gauge transformation connecting the two wave functions can be mimicked by the effect of two successive extended Galilean transformations. An extended Galilean transformation connects two reference frames such that one is accelerating with respect to the other.
A constructive approach to the special theory of relativity78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3298908View Description Hide Description
Simple physical models of a measuring rod and of a clock are used to demonstrate the contraction of objects and clock retardation in special relativity. It is argued that models can help student understanding of special relativity and distinguishing between dynamical and purely perspectival effects.
Electric fields in the presence of conducting objects78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3299275View Description Hide Description
When a conducting object is placed in a region where there is an electric field, charges are induced on its surface. We seek the unique surface charge density that produces an electric field that cancels the original field inside the conductor. When the external sources are point charges or uniform fields, it is easy to determine the field that the induced charges must produce inside the conducting object. Up to a constant, this field gives the potential on the conducting surface, which suffices to determine the potential function outside the conductor. The perturbing field produced by the induced charges is obtained from this potential, and a simple boundary condition gives us the induced surface charge density.

The falling raindrop, revisited78(2010); http://dx.doi.org/10.1119/1.3246871View Description Hide Description
I reconsider the problem of a raindrop falling through mist, collecting mass, and generalize it to allow an arbitrary power-law form for the accretion rate. I show that the coupled differential equations can be solved by the simple trick of temporarily eliminating time in favor of the raindrop's mass as the independent variable.

Field Museum Uncovers 'Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs"
CHICAGO -- When young King Tutankhamun's (a.k.a. King Tut) riches toured the world in 1977, the term "blockbuster exhibition" was created. Now, the Field Museum is offering visitors a new exhibition: "Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs."
Through Jan. 1, 2007, visitors can see more than 130 ancient artifacts of gold and silver, jewels and semiprecious stones, alabaster and gilded wood excavated from the tomb of Tutankhamun and other royal tombs in the Valley of the Kings. Visitors can also learn about life and death in ancient Egypt, and the intimate relationship between the two, and also can discover what the latest technologies are revealing about how the boy king may have died.
"Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" reveals ancient Egypt as a land of artistic and spiritual richness as well as material wealth. "Like the earlier exhibition, this one is filled with beautiful objects," says James Phillps, acting curator of the near East and North Africa at The Field Museum. …

A failure to diagnose cauda equina syndrome not uncommon
Medical conference aims to raise awareness of cauda equina syndrome
Area of Expertise
I am a partner in the firm's clinical negligence team, specialising in complex claims involving cauda equina syndrome, orthopaedic, gynaecological, obstetric cases and brain injury cases.
My clients are often concerned initially about the complexity of the claims process, so I make sure I guide them through the legal maze and give them the clarity they need to feel reassured and confident.
I am approachable and open with my clients, and take the time to get to know them and understand their concerns. I know the whole process can be daunting, so I want to reassure them as much as possible that they are in good hands.
Click here to see my blog entry on how failure to diagnose cauda equina syndrome early can have catastrophic, life changing consequences, as was sadly the case for this young mother.

I am sickened at the demise of Thanksgiving as a nation. When family and children, old folks and relatives we haven�t seen in some time, gather in the home; kids playing outside in the colorful fall leaves; guys congregating in the den for sports (gals too). Then we, as a family of loved ones, all sit down together and give thanks to God for His having blessed us bountifully, even in hard times.
I saw a clip on how Black Thursday has now become the new Black Friday � people don�t even want to celebrate ONE day without consumerist narcissism dominating their lives.
I saw an interview with a young teen girl, sitting on the cold cement outside a big box store. She had NEVER sat down for dinner with family or friends on Thanksgiving. Her whole family core had exploded into �line-place-savers,� three to four days before Thanksgiving.
We want voter convenience at the polling places � weeks of pre-election convenience � yet we will sit on stone cold cement sidewalks outside stores for DAYS to get an item that could be purchased online for less. (The �lost leaders� are always sold out in three minutes of the door�s opening, by the way.)
I think that, if anything is called black, it should be the hearts and minds of Americans that are training their kids to accept the forsaking of family � together, as one kindred spirit, for a bag of cold turkey sandwiches eaten in a bleak, asphalt parking lot or sitting in a endless line of bundled-up strangers.

She is attending college and leaves him in the car while she attends class, sometimes for several hours at a time. She leaves him in the car with her mother, who is a stroke victim. Her mother has no use of her left arm and no use of her legs and is wheelchair-bound. I am concerned that the little boy can "escape" the car and run and she could not stop him. Or, someone could take the child out of the car. He can sometimes be quite naughty and screams at his grandmother and is stronger than she is. He also takes the cell phone from his grandmother, so she couldn't call for help if necessary. I am not trying to overreact and I know times have changed, but I am beside myself to have this little boy left in a car with someone who cannot help him, defend herself or do much in an emergency situation. I'd like to know anyone's opinion about this--do I need to worry?

posted at 1/22/2010 10:37 AM ESTThank you for your opinion. I am in the awful position of being the STEP-mother and have been to feel like I am being too rough on the step-daughter. I SO needed some validation that I'm not just stupid. I have begged my husband to talk to his daughter and his response is he knows she won't listen to him, so why make waves? In this case, I think waves are necessary, more than waves. I didn't tell you that she is also pregnant with baby #2, due in March. I have NO idea what her plans for school are then, if she thinks she can take BOTH kids and leave them in the car or what. I will now pursue this on my own, independent of my husband. Thank you for your help. Someone posted this must be a troll--this is my first time here, so I don't know what that means. Can someone explain?
