If you're reading this, chances are I do not need to describe what many refer to as 'the magic' of theatre. You're probably living it right now. Whether this idea refers to the relationships within a cast, the effect of the show on an audience, or simply the energy that you can only feel onstage, there is certainly something special about being a part of theatre. Now take all of those warm fuzzies, and put them into one tiny, little 24-Hour long box. You shouldn't be able to, right? But it's completely possible, and it's something students from all across my university have been doing for two years now. (more...)

Oldman in need of a new script
Opinion: Why you have to be careful what you say about what you can (or can't) say
'Gary Oldman's point is that were he to use those words about Mrs Pelosi then he would get in trouble, whereas liberals such as Mr Maher or Mr Stewart would, under similar entirely hypothetical circumstances, be given a free pass. ' Photograph: Suzanne Plunkett/Reuters
Let's be fair to Gary Oldman. He does seem to have grasped the inappropriate nature of his already notorious comments to Playboy magazine. Over the past few days, the British actor has been apologising like a man who's stood on his mother-in-law's hat after walking through a pigsty. A grovelling statement was put the way of the Anti-Defamation League. On Wednesday evening, he turned up on the Jimmy Kimmel Show and referred to himself as an "A-hole" (his cautious bowdlerisation). "Words can have meaning long after you've said them," he murmured. By Golly, he said plenty of words.
Perusing the Playboy interview, one found no end of potential triggers for future controversy. At one stage, using an ingenious linguistic convolution, he managed to be outrageously rude to the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives while, apparently, making no remarks about her whatsoever. "If I called Nancy Pelosi a c**t — and I'll go one better, a f**king useless c**t — I can't really say that," he mused. "But Bill Maher and Jon Stewart can, and nobody's going to stop them from working because of it. Bill Maher could call someone a fag and get away with it." Note the vital "if" at the start of the sentence.
Gary's point is that were he to use those words about Mrs Pelosi then he would get in trouble, whereas liberals such as Mr Maher or Mr Stewart would, under similar entirely hypothetical circumstances, be given a free pass.
Oldman has a real beef about the supposed hypocrisy of Hollywood liberals. Then he moved on to discuss the political correctness that governs thinking at awards season. Apparently, "if you didn't vote for 12 Years a Slave, you were a racist. You have to be very careful about what you say." He also wondered why it was such a big deal for Alec Baldwin (a staunch Democrat, incidentally) to use "fag" as a term of abuse. If he'd stopped there then any one of those remarks (or others we haven't space to print) could have become the centre of the story. But Oldman was just warming up. The ordure really began to fly when he addressed the consequences of Mel Gibson's remarks to a police officer after his arrest in 2006. "The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world. Are you a Jew?" The Australian is alleged to have remarked.
"Mel Gibson is in a town that's run by Jews, and he said the wrong thing because he's actually bitten the hand that I guess has fed him – and doesn't need to feed him any more because he's got enough dough," Gary said.
He then went on to claim that: "we've all said these things". Have we? Have we all claimed that: "the Jews are responsible for all the wars"? Interestingly, of all the remarks that Oldman made, the one that triggered the most anger was that phrase about "a town that's run by Jews". Yet it is undeniably true that many of the studio bosses are from Jewish backgrounds. In his subsequent apology to the Anti-Defamation League – a Jewish civil-rights lobby – Oldman explained that he'd just been reading Neil Gabler's fine book An Empire of Their Own: How the Jews invented Hollywood. That tome explains how Eastern European Jews, largely from humble backgrounds, such as Louis B Meyer, Sam Goldwyn and Jack Warner invented Hollywood as we know it.
A tone-deaf person might ask why pointing this out continues to be a problem. Last year, Seth MacFarlane angered (among others) The Wiesenthal Center for — in the person of Ted the comedy bear – suggesting, at the Oscars, that "to work in this town you have to be Jewish". In 1996, Marlon Brando pushed things further by claiming that the Jews "own Hollywood". Funnily enough, one person who does now appear to appreciate the importance of caution in this area is Mr Gary Oldman. "I don't condone the words in any context," he told Kimmel. "I basically shouldn't have used them in any context."
It is useless to pretend that, when addressing issues of race or religion, our words are issued in a consequence-free void. Stating that Hollywood is "run by Jews" is not the same thing as claiming that, say, the Boston police force is "run by the Irish".
Nobody has to (my knowledge) invented a secret worldwide Irish conspiracy to dominate the banking system and enslave the planet's youth. Public figures must consider more than the literal meaning of their words. They must consider the uses to which those words can be put. Oldman has belatedly got his head around that concept. Next, he might want to send a polite note to Nancy Pelosi. Oh hang on. He didn't actually say anything about her. Did he?

Ooh, hologram on the wall. We still have some holograms around somewhere, I should put them back on the wall.
Ooh, hologram on the wall. We still have some holograms around somewhere, I should put them back on the wall.
Work: the 8 hours that separates bike rides.
I have both the Magicshine LED and a Fenix L2D. I've used the Fenix for 2+ years on my handlebar, and moved it to my helmet when I got the MS. The Magicshine puts out way more light than the Fenix, which served my needs just fine for the past two years.
The lumen numbers are useful for comparing lights, but the main point to keep in mind is that there are few options that can compare with the MS in its price range. If you can spend $300-500 on a light system, I am sure there are better options. For less than $100, not many. The P7 flashlights are main competitors for MS in that price range, but they have a number of drawbacks (in my view) -- including size, weight, non-standard batteries, and the size and shape of the lightbeam.
In another forum there was a thread titled "lumen schoomen", and I gotta say I feel the same way at this point.
All these numbers and all this talk and comparing, I'm over it.
All I know is this, when I turn my MS on on the trail, it's BRIGHT. How many lumens? Don't know, don't care anymore. I just know that it's brighter, lights up a bigger area and throws further then just about every light on my group rides, and costs less, much less.
"Lumen schoomen" is the appropriate response to all the wildly inaccurate and often maliciously misleading numbers thrown out by manufacturers too lazy to measure their products, and advocates getting all their information from the boxes those products come in. I'm "in to" measuring light, and that's the motivation for my little project here.
So what's your point? That I shouldn't post my results here? That now that YOU are happy with the light YOU have, that nobody should be concerned with the real output of these lights? Is that why you chose to come onto this thread and essentially say the topic of the thread is unnecessary?
I think this is one of the more useful threads out there: at least some real numbers to compare lights with versus the 'my light works great' thing.
I was running a 10W halogen prior to getting my Airbike 900. The halogen cost me (2 years ago) almost what a MagicShine costs now, and puts out a mere fraction of the light of my Airbike.
I ride mostly on really bumpy country roads with no streetlights, and at my age I don't think I'd want anything less than what I have now.
I've ordered one of the '900 lumen' P7 Ultrafire flashlights from hkequipment, not because it is good value (the MS is a better deal with the batteries and bicycle mount) but I needed a light for hiking the trails around here at night, and will see how it compares to the Airbike as far as beam and brightness goes.
I also welcome some real numbers in the debate and discussion of lights. Many things might effect which light we like best for our own riding (beam shape, color, spill, etc) but some really comparable numbers on actual output with the optics in place is a very useful place to start. Thanks for your work and God bless those who love to collect useful data the rest of us have neither the tools nor time to collect! I loom forward to seeing some of your other data.
God grant me the serenity to accept the hills and winds I cannot change;
courage to challenge the cagers I can; and wisdom to know the difference.
(with apologies to AA)
24 mi. roundtrip -- Maryland suburbs to DC and back.
Thanks for all the testing. Hopefully you can get a bunch more to compare it to so people can make a really informed purchase. I'd be interested in seeing some taillight figures too.
I love my MS and it is one of the top 3 brightest lights in my group (20 or so) and WAY cheaper than most of them.
I also know it's brighter than a scooters headlight and cars dim their high beams now.
I'll be happy if the magicshine is at least 2x brighter than my 200L. I paid $125 for the 200L (batteries extra), so the magicshine will actually be less.
Mes compaingnons cui j'amoie et cui j'aim,... Me di, chanson.
Good job on the testing. It's really helpful to see that your test also pegs the Fenix L2d at a much lower lumen rating than the manufacturer - which suggests that your Magicshine results (tested similarly) will likely come in significantly (much signficantly, judging from the Fenix numbers) than the manufacturer claims.
With your measurements, sounds like the Magicshine is at least 3x brighter than a Fenix L2D on turbo - that's hella bright, and I know you won't find any more inexpensive commercially non-DIY solutions with close to comparable brightness. Your helpful review further encourages that the Magicshine is the real deal with brightness as claimed by people and reviewers.

If possible try to test some Niterider lights. They CLAIM on their web site that the light outputs they list are based on the average of ten production units tested using an integrating sphere. If true this might allow you to calibrate your test procedure.

Well I finally got the time to build up a more portable system to measure bike headlights. It's an 8" diameter Labsphere integrating sphere with my Luttron LX-101 luxmeter attached to the exit port and mounted on a tripod as shown below.
I used a fan to cool the Magicshine headlight mounted on my handlebars, which was pointed into the entrance port of the sphere. The airflow (8 mph) and its temperature (51 degrees F) past the light are shown on the windmeter held next to it.
I took the sphere over to the home of a local young laser enthusiast, LaserBen (who buys, repairs and sells surplus lasers), to calibrate it. He used a Spectra-Physics Millenium laser and a Coherent power meter, as seen below. According to the Photopic Spectral Luminous Efficiency Function, one Watt of laser light at 532nm equals 601 lumens. We put measured amounts of that wavelength into the sphere, between 0.1W and 1.9W, and noted the corresponding values displayed on the meter. I then converted Watts into lumens and graphed the results. The result was a straight line, as expected.
Using this method, I measured my headlight to be 330 lm on high, 185 lm on medium, and 95 lm on low. Not bad! Despite wishing I verified the calibration laser's output power with more than one meter, these results agree quite well with those reported above. Certainly NOT 900 lm, or even the 450 lm reported elsewhere. So now i'm pretty confident with my measurements, and ready to start gathering data about other headlights and flashlights (for comparison), and modification of my light to increase its output.

excellent thread. lumens are not very interesting without knowing what methods the manufacturers used to arrive at that number. unless every manufacturer measures their light output using the same, standardized method, it's not exactly an apples-apples comparison. not sure it is feasible for RapidRobert to do this, but it would be a great service to the community if more lights can be tested using the same setup (or at least some of the more popular/recommended setups). at least that way we can know the relative performance of the different lights.
i won't deny it i'm a straight ridah
Beam pattern is also quite important. I was doing my highway commute route the other day with my DiNotte 600L and my Dereelight DBS, and while the DBS is "only" a ~250-lumen light, it completely dominates the 600L for actually seeing forward down the highway, because the light goes where I need it. I'd compare it to driving with one's parking lights, then switching on the low-beams. Lumens are one factor to look at, beam pattern's another.
1) Total Lumens
2) Hot Spot Lumens
3) Total Divergence
4) Hot Spot Divergence
All four numbers are easier to measure with my first system above, which is why I started with that one instead of the sphere. The sphere is easier to take to bike shops for comparisons, but the benchtop system gives a better picture more accurately. Perhaps with the addition to a camera looking down on the target to see beam shape as well.
Personally I believe that beam shots taken on a surface perpendicular to the light beam are also definitely worthwhile. The majority of LED lights seem to have what is basically a round beam like a flashlight while those that are road legal in Germany have a sharp cutoff, like a auto low beam headlight., to prevent blinding oncoming traffic and pedestrians. For most American LED bike headlights the differences in beam pattern are primarily divergence amount and spill divergence. Amount of light in the main beam and the spill beam also vary.
Lux figures are not much help as they are normally given for the brightest part of the beam and are totally distance related. Busch & Muller of Germany give their Lux figures for a distance of 10 meters while a British dynamo headlight maker lists 4000 Lux but this is at a distance of 1 meter. At 10 meters this should equate to 40 Lux if my calculations are correct.

Now I have more to talk about at the coffee shop.
Huh. I just slap 'em on the bike and ride. This is the DBS alone on a pitch-dark 600-foot straightaway in an area infested with deer, which is its showcase environment. Light metering was adjusted to match how it looks to my dark-adapted vision... might be a tad overcooked, but pretty close actually:
Nice flashlight. I give it a 7

Dyersburg had already run the table in the district during the regular season and won the district and region tournaments in convincing fashion while facing quality competition along the way.
With several preseason goals already accomplished, Dyersburg was one step away from realizing another on Thursday while facing Fairley in a sectional contest.
In what should have been its toughest match of the season so far, Dyersburg dominated and turned it into a laugher.
The Lady Trojans, as they have the three previous seasons in sectional contests, manhandled the visitors with relative ease. The 3-set domination that took a mere 40 minutes to complete, ended with scores of 25-8, 25-3, 25-3 as Dyersburg punched its ticket to the big dance for the fourth straight season.
Afterward, first-year coach Marilyn Liljenquist was much more at ease, as well as much happier than she was following the region tournament title game two days earlier.
"This is what we've wanted since the first day of practice and since the first time we stepped on the floor this season," said a beaming Liljenquist. "These girls have worked extremely hard for the chance to get back to state and today they made it happen."
On a day with the season hanging in the balance, the Lady Trojans were firing on all cylinders. Crisp passes, sweet serves and amazing kill shots from Daisy Liljenquist and Jessica Thompson were more than enough.
The duo combined for a total of 33 kills, 19 digs and eight aces in the final game of their high school careers played at DHS. Though the powerful duo led the squad at the net, the supporting cast of Claire White, Sydney Coffman, Paige Jones, Kali Decker and Kyndal Riddick all played well during the victory.
"All of the girls were just awesome and I'm proud of the entire team," added Liljenquist. "The seniors were very determined when the season began to make it to the state tournament four years in a row and now they've done it and they deserve to be where they are today."
While Thursday's match against Fairley was certainly one of the easiest wins of the season, the competition will reach new heights next week when the squad travels to Murfreesboro.
Though the program has advanced to the state tournament the last three years, there has been only one match win during the span. Last season, another very talented Lady Trojans squad was overwhelmed and intimidated, dropping six straight sets to end the season.
This year, Liljenquist hopes things will be different. Though she knows the competition will be tough, she believes this unit will have a better ending than those before them.
"Look, we respect every team that will be there because like us, they've earned it," she added. "This year is going to be different for these girls, I really believe that. This year we're going to respect everyone, but we won't be scared and we won't be intimidated."

This campground is conveniently located about a mile from the west entrance of Glacier National Park. It is reasonably priced and heavily wooded, so no satellite TV reception possible. Sites are not paved and are narrow (room for the slide, but too tight for the awning). We camped in our 27' motorhome and had no problem getting into our site and only minimal work to get level. There was a fire pit and picnic table area behind our rig. We did have just enough room to park our tow Jeep on the lot. It did take the 40' rig across from us about 10 minutes to leave his site. I have no idea how he ever got into it. The bathrooms are clean, and the water is hot. The shower configuration is strange, in that, you must walk through the dressing area of shower #1 to get to shower #2. The entire campground is situated on a hill, so you'll be walking up a steep hill either to or from the bathrooms. There was free wi-fi available outside the office. There was ample seating and tables there, and reception was good. - RagTopDay

We had a super site, pull through with grass that was level and a nice site, especially for our dog. Not much to the dog park. It was so smoky from the fires that we only stayed two nights but they refunded our two other nights with no problem and I appreciated that considering the fires aren't their fault. But, the wifi is worthless and the Verizon signal wasn't strong enough to carry our hotspot. Seems like for what they are charging that they could improve the wifi. Didn't use any of the facilities but I'm sure they were fine. Nice little store too and everyone that worked there was friendly and helpful. - thekites

First the good...CLOSE to Glacier West entrance. All downhill from there. Campground is dirt, most everywhere. Dusty if dry, muddy if wet. On our first night I asked the two ladies in the office why there were no towels/dryer machine in the bathrooms. Was told that the "RV'ers take the towels to wash their windshields". Not only is there no means to dry hands after using the facilities there is NO soap provided, dispensers or otherwise. The campground has the railroad tracks on one side and a heavily truck /car traveled highway within 100 yards on the other. The shower stalls are tiny and the toilet was dirty from someone that had had serious problems. We camped there for two nights and the same toilet still had not been cleaned by the morning we left. I informed the two ladies in the office the morning we left that after a month of camping all over the Canadian Rockies their campground rated the lowest. I told them the unclean toilet was a perfect example. With that their profanity began and they accused me of being cause for the dirty toilet and to "get out of here". As a retired banker I have never been confronted with such abuse in all my travels. My wife and I spent the next two nights much further away from the park entrance but in a campsite worthy of a 4-5 star rating. San-Suz-Ed was a disaster and not worth a rating higher than a two and only then for being so close to the park. We would never stay here again. - Sweatlife

Main drive is paved and other roads & sites are dirt. Sites are fairly level, pull through for big rigs. They have a restaurant for breakfast. It was average. Utilities worked fine except 30 amp didn't work at our site. No TV on antenna & Dish could not get through the trees. Wifi worked good but slow. Laundry is $2.25 to wash & .25 for 7 min dry. Park is 2.5 miles west of West Glacier & 14 miles east of Columbia Falls. Good location for visiting Glacier NP. Just way to much to pay for water, electric, sewer & a picnic table in my opinion. No discounts. - Retired & rambling

This is an expensive park, however it is Glacier National Park and it is summertime, so it is understandable. We had made a reservation some time ago, so check in was fast and efficient. They were re-coating their blacktop when we arrived, so it was a little difficult navigating through that, however the clerk and owner moved some barriers to aid in our entrance. The site was large, level and blacktopped with adequate room between sites. The air smelled of pine needles the whole time we were there. As the park was close to Highway 2 and a BNSF rail line, there was some noise, however noise doesn't bother us so that was not a problem. There is no cable, but we were able to pull in several channels with our antenna. Did not notice Wi-Fi, but we had a good Verizon signal. There is no dog run, but there is a tent camping area behind the camping area that is not used much where you can walk your dog. The bathrooms were clean, but the showers were a little on the small side. Water pressure was good and it was nice and hot. We spent several days here while touring the west side of the park and we would stay here again. - Dale07

Great place, sites a little close but most had a barrier of some kind between them. Very close to West entrance to Glacier NP, I think about two miles. This KOA is large off the main road and on what seems like it's own private road. We walk our dogs each morning and this road was terrific for that activity. Dinner is available each night and cooked up by a comedian of sorts who runs the place like a drill instructor at times. Lots of fun and the food was good too. Spent most of our time in the NP and driving around, but the KOA was quiet at night and seemed so during the one day we stayed in the park. - PA Airstreamer

We stayed 3 nights while visiting Glacier Park. This is an extremely well kept park. The landscaping is first rate as well as all the amenities offered. We will definitely stay here again, even thought the sites are not overly large, they are well layed out. - HR650
Sep 2015 - $70.00
The other folks have written of this, the best KOA we've encountered in 2+ years of full-timing. For big rigs, they offer three levels of sites. The Deluxe Patio sites are $75/night and have a concrete patio with furniture. Next step down are beautifully landscaped pull thru sites - $70/night. The cheap sites (everything is relative) have lush green lawns for $65/night. No cable TV, but five stations can be pulled off your antenna. WiFi is a sometimes thing. Good AT&T and Verizon data coverage. Nice (spendy) laundry. - Ray Waugh

Pulled into the RV park area....following the signs. There was a sign saying registration booth closed, register at the lodge. No indication of where the "lodge" is. Had to pound on the door of the spa to get someone to help us. She said since it is off season, Sept 28, nothing was open in the RV area, no water slides, no gift shop, nothing but the spa. Luckily the shuttle driver came thru and we were able to unhook our car and follow her to the lodge, 1/4 mile away. The registration gal knew nothing about the Rv park, and encouraged us to choose a site with a river view.....problem is the "view" is blocked by a
15ft high berm. She asked for our credit card for the rest of the charges...when I asked what charges because I had paid in advance, she stated that was just for the first night and the fee was $70 a night. I was not informed of that on the phone and had assumed the 69.88 chg was for 2 night since it was "off season". We decided to stay one night only and will not return. They are so unorganized it is ridiculous. The park itself is very nice, well groomed. - Traveling2Some

The sites are paved with a patio and picnic table. The park is beautifully landscaped with lots of green lawn and trees. There are hiking trails that are great for walking the dog. The WiFi was spotty, sometimes it worked great, other times it was slow. The pool is free for resort guests and there are good golf deals to be had. They have a free shuttle service if you want to golf or go to the lodge. The entrance is a hair tight for a big rig but we made it in with no trouble. Plenty of room to maneuver once in the RV park. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. - blz

We stayed here one weeknight in mid-August. We had some problems getting here because I made some mistakes in my research. When trying to find the park on the map on this site, I assumed it was near the casino in Warm Springs right on US 26. In fact, it is 12 miles off 26 over a narrow, winding, up and down road that takes almost half an hour in a RV. We had a FHU, pull-through site with 23 channel cable TV. The Wi-Fi worked OK for us at the site. The roads and site are asphalt and our site and others I looked at were not level. Most of the sites are back-ins. Not all sites are satellite friendly due to trees. There are also about 20 large tee-pees that were very popular with families. The bathroom, showers and laundry were right by the tee-pees. I think that is why the bathrooms were so dirty. I must admit that the pool complex was amazing. It was the equivalent of a small water park. This pool complex is the draw. There are hundreds of non-camping customers here just for the pools (at a hefty price that is included in your site fee). This is a pool complex that has a RV park, not a RV park that has a pool. While most of the RV sites are much roomier than in most parks, the leveling issue and the utility placement are big negatives. The scenery is fantastic even though they just suffered a large wildfire in the area. I just don't think it is worth the 24 mile round trip off US 26 for an overnight stop. - Jerry S

We spent 10 days in Rimouski, Quebec, doing maintenance (mostly replacing hydraulic pressure hoses, keel bolts and fuel hoses). Rimouski is a small, pleasant city of about 40,000 people. As its port is used by yachts, a fishing fleet and cargo ships, and it has the only marine college in Quebec, it is a good place to work on boats.
AM's time off finished so he got off the boat in Tadoussac, Quebec. Ryan joined the crew in Rimouski.

BRISTOL, Conn. (AP) — Jon Gruden has agreed to a new contract with ESPN that would keep him in TV — and out of coaching — for the next five years.
Gruden won the Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after the 2002 season and has been a popular name in coaching rumors since joining "Monday Night Football" in 2009. But the network said Monday he had a new deal for 2012-16.
The 48-year-old Gruden has teamed with play-by-play commentator Mike Tirico and analyst Ron Jaworski, earning two Sports Emmy Award nominations.
Gruden coached the Oakland Raiders from 1998-2001 and the Bucs from 2002-08. He went 100-85 with five division titles.

Creating a soundtrack for a newcomer is always a challenging task. In Bollywood scenario, music has always played an intrinsic role in deciding the future of a future superstar, as can be witnessed from the list below
Picture this:
- Anand Milind gave Aamir Khan a series of chartbusHarman Baweja" src="/bollywood/images/uploads/harman_baweja_big.jpg" align="right" border="" hspace="5" vspace="5">ter tracks, most notable being 'Papa Kehte Hain', in QAYAMAT SE QAYAMAT TAK
- Nadeem Shravan came together with Shah Rukh Khan to mark his introduction with 'Koyi Na Koyi Chahiye' for DEEWANA
- Ram Raxman created a dozen odd hit tunes (including 'Mere Rang Mein Rangne Waali') for Salman Khan in MAINE PYAAR KIYA
- Rajesh Roshan ensured he gave it all for Hrithik Roshan when he created 'Ek Pal Ka Jeena' and 'Sitaron Ki Mehfil' for KAHO NAA...PYAAR HAI
- Anu Malik has himself done it for Shahid Kapoor (ISHQ VISHK) and Abhishek Bachchan in National Award wining score of REFUGEE
Now one looks forward to see whether Anu Malik along with Javed Akhtar have managed to do the same for Harman Baweja too!
In last few weeks, music stands have seen the arrival of quite a few albums which have Anu Malik credited as a composer. While he has contributed along with other composers for WOODSTOCK VILLA, Anu Malik has run the show entirely for HASTEY HASTEY and ANAMIKA. However, none of them can be termed as a true blue comeback for the man who once upon a time used to deliver countless chartbuster songs. His last big album was UMRAO JAAN but it bit the dust.
Now with LOVE STORY 2050 looking at hitting the screens, one can finally see Anu Malik indeed making a big comeback. Well, we are waiting!
With Priyanka Chopra">Priyanka Chopra in lead and Boman Irani playing a principal character in the LOVE STORY 2050, this Harry Baweja directed sci-fi film has a lot riding on it since it is for the first time ever that a genre like this at such a huge scale has been attempted in India. Supposed to have been made on the budget of over Rs. 50 crore, LOVE STORY 2050, which has taken almost 3 years to reach the finishing line, has now been confirmed for it's 4th July arrival, the same day when Imraan Khan makes his debut in Abbas Tyrewala's JAANE TU YA JAANE NAA.Joginder Tuteja

There is no way I can make text wrap around images inside my posts anymore.
I know there is a topic about this in the codex, but simply adding those classes to my CSS won't work.
The problem, as I see it, is that the text is always put inside a
, but images with captions are automatically put inside a div. So, the image is never inside the paragraph, causing the html to generate something like this:

Some text

More text

The image+caption div actually floats to the left or right according to the class. But as it is outside of the
 elements, the text just won't wrap around the div.
There will always be a block of text above, an image floated with a blank space beside, and another block of text below.
Obviously, as the
 element renders as a rectangle (as everything), it just won't assume an "L" shape to wrap around the div image.
Now, when you insert an image without captions, it will work because the  will be placed inside the
 together with text, which will wrap around as expected.
Seems to me this is an bug of latest wordpress versions. Problem is that we have no control on how the DIVs and Ps will organize on the post, since wordpress does it automatically, it is not a theme-layout thing. I can't just find a way to force the
 inside the
.
Now all my clients websites are screwed up...
So, any help?!

Any news on this? Any news on a possible open beta?
it just generic mmorpg
Graphics and music look good. Will be hard to judge gameplay until I glance at the spell descriptions. I am also interested in this.
Yeah, I love the atmosphere and music that the original Archlord has. Really looking forward to try out the sequel.

OT: Been looking forward to this as well. I enjoyed what the first one did and looking forward to this one. Even if they dont do anything new, its a good game... looking to see what they do with the sequel.
Here's hoping the global version of the game isn't ruined by WebZen.
Playing Online:
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
Playing Offline:
Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate
Resident Evil: Revelations
Waiting on:
ArchLord II
Hopefully not. Wish there was more information on the game though.... wish it was playable -.-
Sorry for the double post, but just to make sure:
I guess there's no information at all?
Looks good,really looking forward for it,hope they release it this year
Unfortunately Webzen has been pretty quiet about Archlord 2 as of late. I check the Webzen site frequently and I have not seen any Archlord 2 news for a long time. I too am looking forward to the game. I still go back and play Archlord from time to time.
CBT2 is coming:
Archlord II (KR) is going to start its second closed beta test later this month on February 28th, interested gamers must remember the exiciting CBT 1 gameplay reviews four months ago. Steparu.com has shared some gameplay videos along with the full CBT2 schedule, let's check them out below.
Those of who were previously accepted in the last beta are automatically accepted in the next one! The upcoming 2nd CBT will feature a lot of new content like new areas, dungeons, 5v5 PvP, 10v10 PvP, RvR contents. New weapons will also be introduced with a slight weapon system revamp.
One of the unique features that this game has to offer is the multiple class or weapon system. During combat your character can fast switch between two weapons by pressing the Z and X key. Every time you switch your weapon, the skills on your hotbar changes. So players can mix up their own classes and such in the future! For example, if you want create a Paladin type build you will have to level up your Sword Mastery and Wand Mastery. Then you would probably have to focus on where you want to distribute your status points into.

I was about to post the above update but you beat me to it. Nice videos, the character customization looks a lot better this time. I'm still waiting to see my Moon Elves.
No idea. I have not heard much about the game, nor have I tried the Beta. I've just seen some videos, but the videos were only of the Humans and Orcs.
Can someone explain to me what's so awesome about the first one?
I get tons of e-mails from WebZen about Archlord, but i've never really bothered to try. (The one time I did the lag was so terrible I couldn't play properly)
Perhaps there's a certain uniqueness about the game that most of us are just assuming doesn't exist.
Currently Playing [IGN]: (Say Hi if you see me!)
Those are things I did enjoy, but I cant recall my main reason why.
I am looking forward to 2. Why? All I can say is, I had fun in the first and hoping the second will feel the same.

Currently Playing [IGN]: (Say Hi if you see me!)
And what I see in the videos on this thread shows they changed that. And for some odd reason, the landscape has caught my attention. Much better than the previous.
I really like the Archlord-typical music too.... just awesome!

Phone: (213) 740-8309
Office: JEF 116
Biographical Sketch
Victoria Byczkiewicz Cutler holds a BA in Cultural Anthropology from UC Santa Barbara and held candidacy for an MA in the Anthropology of Visual Communication from Temple University, where she studied and practiced documentary filmmaking with a particular emphasis on native-generated image-making and issues of social justice. She helped build grassroots video activism networks to highlight the AIDS epidemic and worked with the group LISN (League of Indigenous Sovereign Nations). Victoria taught English and worked as a translator and editor for six years in post-unification Berlin, Germany, then returned to her home city of Los Angeles in 2000 to earn an MA in TESOL at Cal State LA in 2005.
At present, she serves the American Language Institute at USC as a Lecturer and as a Testing Coordinator. In the latter capacity, she is committed to the continual development of the ALI's in-house English language proficiency examination, and has amassed a significant database which provides the basis for a variety of research projects. She also works for the Educational Testing Service (ETS) supervising Raters for the TOEFLIbT Speaking Test.
In 2014, Victoria is pleased to present her edited collection of articles from international scholars titled Democracy & Education: Collected Perspectives, to be printed in April/May 2014. She has also completed a Mindfulness Faciltator's Training via the Office of Religious Studies and is committed to working to promote the Provost's initiative toward creating a "mindful university" by facilitating mindful meditation practice for both students and faculty.

Description of Research
Summary Statement of Research Interests
|Professor Byczkiewicz's research interests include the critical analysis of discourse in a variety of contexts specific to the teaching, learning, and testing of English as a Second Language. She has done action-research based on weekly online discussion forums in her advanced writing workshops. These discussion forums are integral to the development of written academic discourse skills by providing a crucial "semi public" forum in which nonnative and multilingual English speakers can practice argumentation and negotiation skills. The forums are based on weekly course readings and/or student-selected themes and articles pertaining to a variety of current cross-cultural issues, including identity, ethnicity, immigration matters, nationality and integration/assimilation/acculturation. Byczkiewicz is interested in international students' constructions of identity relate to nationality, ethnicity, and language, and how these factors interact to reify an articulation or shared articulation of identity within the foreign language-learning and academic cultural context of the university. An additional question is how international students teach and learn from one another in this online setting, with the aim of exploring the importance of peer interaction in the development of writing skills. Further research is in her work in teaching pronunciation using technology as medium to examine whether technology-mediated teaching is advantageous or more efficacious than face-to-face pronunciation teaching. Additional research is in second language proficiency assessment, examining how questioning in interview settings impacts examinee performance. Additional research is related to the predictability of in-house test scores and placement with reference to the TOEFLiBT Speaking examination.

My baby turned 8 today. She is well within the height requirements. We told her to go out and remove the boosters from both cars. She is so excited!
I will keep the minivan until it dies. However our next car will be a Sedan! Maybe something sporty. I now have two girls big enough for the front seat and my youngest does not need the booster. I could get a sports car. Maybe a Mustang like the one I traded in for a minivan when my youngest was born.

UNT student to graduate with one of first master's degrees in international sustainable tourism
University of North Texas graduate student Eric Norman may not have known the word "sustainability" when he went on Boy Scout camping trips to remote wilderness areas. But Norman said those experiences "planted in my mind that there are some things worth protecting."
On May 11, Norman, from McAllen, will become one of the first three UNT students to receive the university's "green degree" -- a master's degree in international sustainable tourism through UNT's first joint international degree program. Norman's diploma will have the names of both UNT's College of Merchandising, Hospitality and Tourism and CATIE (Tropical Agricultural Research and Higher Education Center) in Turrialba, Costa Rica.
Students in the master's program, known as MIST, take courses for one academic year at UNT, then go to Costa Rica for a second academic year to prepare for management and leadership positions in sustainable tourism -- tourism that strives to meet the needs of hotels, resorts, tour groups and other tourism markets without compromising natural resources or negatively affecting communities. The field includes ecotourism -- tourism to fragile, pristine and, usually, environmentally protected areas that strives to be low impact and on a small scale.
Norman said sustainability "is one of those things that just makes sense the more you study it."
"It isn't a corporate social responsibility ploy about adding skylights to have something nice to print in a brochure. It is about making changes that make a business improve its odds of success, like helping to alleviate the problems that face communities, reducing consumption of resources and ensuring that you earn adequate returns to keep doing the work that makes the whole cycle continue. It's a really beautiful way to approach life, and how you manage a company," he said.
Norman previously earned a bachelor's degree in hospitality management from UNT in December 2008. He was employed by Dallas' Fairmont Hotel before enrolling in the MIST program in August 2010.
"My plan was to study hospitality management before going to culinary school. I had been interested in cooking and food since elementary school, and I figured that I needed a business background to open my own restaurant," Norman said. "But I also really liked the outdoors, and I realized that what I enjoyed most about cooking was entertaining people. Being in a kitchen for hours wasn't appealing to me, and while I still love to cook, I became interested in the travel and tourism sector of the hospitality industry."
The summer after his freshman year at UNT, Norman participated in a sustainability program when he traveled to New Zealand with International Student Volunteers, a non-profit organization that provides university students with educational volunteer and travel adventure programs. He planted coastal grasses to prevent shore erosion, assisted with a wetlands survey and talked with local schoolchildren about the importance of conservation.
Norman found out about the MIST program when he visited UNT to recruit students to work at the Fairmont.
"I decided that I wanted to ensure that resource conservation and community involvement were integrated into the planning and operation of tourism projects," he said, adding that his months in Costa Rica have provided him with firsthand information on these projects. The country is recognized as a pioneer in environmental conservation.
Norman said much of the nation's work to set aside protected land comes from "citizens who have decided that the land is valuable to them."
After receiving his master's degree, Norman will return to CATIE to be a research assistant and program coordinator for the center's Sustainability Seminar Series, a four-week summer program that will start this year. Students from New Mexico State University, Oklahoma State University and UNT will earn six academic credits while studying the principles of sustainability in hospitality and tourism and learning from people who have put sustainable concepts into practice in Costa Rica. Norman said the series will be expanded next year to include agribusiness and environmental science.
He plans to eventually work as a consultant on tourism development projects.
"There are places in the world where the tourism industry is so underdeveloped that it's crucial that projects are handled delicately. If they're not done the right way, the people in these regions can wind up little better off than they were before, and sometimes worse," he said.
Note to editors: Eric Norman's commencement ceremony, the ceremony for all graduating master's and doctoral students, begins at 3 p.m. May 11 in the UNT Coliseum, which is located at 600 Avenue D. Norman will be in the Dallas-Fort Worth area beginning May 1, and he will return to Costa Rica in mid-July. Contact Nancy Kolsti in the UNT News Service, 940-565-3509 or email@example.com, to get in touch with him.

Kafka, China, and Jews
One of Kafka's most fascinating short texts, written during the First World War in 1917, was entitled "The Great Wall of China." Kafka's preoccupation with China reflects his intellectual engagement with the history and possible future of the Jews, as well as the project of building a Jewish national State.
Mark H. Gelber is professor of comparative literature and German-Jewish Studies at Ben-Gurion University. He is also director of the Center for Austrian and German Studies at BGU. In 2015 he was a guest professor at Renmin University, Beijing.
This event is co-sponsored by the Department of German Studies and the Department of Jewish Studies.

In 2004, the Iowa DNR placed two north Butler County streams, Coldwater Creek and Palmer Creek, on the impaired (303d) water list submitted to the EPA. Water quality sampling by the DNR indicated nutrient enrichment and low dissolved oxygen levels contributing to the stream impairment. Palmer Creek flows into Coldwater just prior to entering the Shell Rock River. These two watersheds consist of approximately 30,000 acres, primarily dedicated to row crop agriculture with numerous hog and beef cattle operations. The preference is to educate and offer incentives to adopt practices that address causes of the impairment rather than through a regulatory, enforcement and penalty process. Many of the recommended practices will qualify producers for acceptance into the Conservation Security Program at a higher payment level.
John Rodecap's Performance-based environmental management model is being employed to address the water quality issues. The concept involves empowering local farmers to assume leadership in addressing the impaired watersheds. The purpose is to educate farmers on the issues, develop leadership within the local watershed, and have farmers themselves develop priorities, goals and incentives needed to make changes in production practices that improve water quality. The Iowa Corn Growers Association (ICGA) has invested in this project with a 3 year funding commitment of $30,000/ year for cost-share incentives.
The Butler County Extension Service, in cooperation with ISU Extension crop specialist, George Cummins, and John Rodecap, initiated contact with farmers in the watershed, facilitated 10 farmer meetings to inform of water quality issues, identify priorities and cost-share incentives. A leadership council was formed, officers elected, a local schedule of activities and incentives was developed, and the program implemented. The leadership group was organized into a formal non-profit corporation. The project solicited support of CSI cooperator- Smidt Crop Consulting, Rudd-Rockford-Marble Rock FFA chapter, IOWATER volunteers, and Coe College students to collect and analyze water samples, and collect corn stalk nitrate samples. Assistance was provided to organize water sampling at 4 sites in the watershed during the growing season to determine where and when contamination occurs.
1. 23 of 60 eligible producers signed up initially with continuing interest building
2. Water test results for the season identifying N as the primary nutrient of concern
3. Include Nos signed up for various practices P Index, Soil Conditioning Index, RUSLE II, LSNT, FSNT,etc
4. P Index results were all 2.0 or less
5. Identified two potential sites for biofilters in tile lines draining into CC
6. Request for further funding successful
7. Farm Cooperator for N Research study with John Sawyer identified
8. Watershed Project has received good media coverage locally and regionally (Agri-News and Iowa Farmer today)
9. NW Area Extension team spent 2 days in the area studying the organization of this watershed project. The Extension Ag Program Leader, IDALS and regional EPA reps attended a regular meeting to observe the Exec Committee in action and determine the reasons for the success of this project.

Gainward package their card in a large box which lists some of the card features as well as noting that various applications are bundled with the product. Inside we find what looks like a basic bundle, though this impression is the result of Gainwards choice to use a custom design PCB which requires fewer output dongles.
Shown above is Gainwards GTX 465, it has a dual slot cooler which immediately looks different to the reference design, thanks to the use of two 80mm red fans. Underneath these fans the changes continue as Gainward use their own PCB design which as well as being around 10mm shorter than the reference design also does away with the hole In the board which is used on the single fan models.
In terms of connectors the Gainward GTX 465 has two 6-pin sockets for power and dual-link DVIs available for connection on the PCIe bracket. Differing from the reference design Gainward go for a HDMI port which is capable of passing through audio and DisplayPort on their 465. The audio formats supported are 2 channel LPCM, Dolby Digital, DTS, 7.1 LPCM, Dolby Digital + and MPEG 2/4 AAC. As with other GTX 400 series cards DTS Master Audio and Dolby True-HD are not supported.
Gainward clock the 40nm DirectX 11 and Shader Model 5.0 GF100 GPU at 608MHz, shaders at 1215MHz and memory at 3200MHz. 1GB of memory is connected to the GPU by a 256-bit bus and support for PCIe 2.0 is present. As with the previous generation of cards we have full support for acceleration of Blu-Ray content as well as OpenCL, CUDA and PhysX.
