I became completely swept up in this wonderful novel. The story is written purely through letters and although I initially thought that this might be hard to get into, but it flowed beautifully and with ease and I was soon captivated by the letters between Elspeth and Davey. I really liked that we were able to read the novel in this way, I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know then through their letters and I really felt like I understood everything about them this way – it felt like I knew all their thoughts and feelings and their most personal hopes for life and for each other. The letters touched me on so many levels, I laughed with Elspeth and Davey, I felt for them and I even cried too, I felt SUCH an emotional connection with both of them.
I think the form of letters is definitely one of the strengths of the book, with this Jessica has created a beautiful and meaningful depth to the characters and their personal entwined story together.
The Isle of Skye sounds beautiful, I could really picture it in my mind through the descriptions from the letters, and I found myself wanting to travel there. I must admit that over the course of the book I fell in love with letter writing, and I'm now very keen to start writing letters again.
Letters From Skye is a truly touching and powerful novel that moved me in so many ways. It is captivating, romantic and a true gem of a story. A must read book.
This book makes me a little nostalgic for the lost art of letter writing. I would much rather receive a carefully thought out, hand written letter than a typo ridden text any day.
I give Letters from Skye 4/5.
I do think the ending did seem a little rushed & contrived.

Russell Pearce's Son Joshua Sentenced To Year in Prison
Recently filed court documents show that State Senate President Russell Pearce's 30 year-old son Joshua has been sentenced to a year in the Arizona Department of Corrections for violating the conditions of his probation on a 2007 conviction for aggravated DUI.
(Both Joshua's infant son and his wife were in the car with him at the time of the 2007 DUI.)
Joshua, who has had numerous run-ins with Mesa cops over the years, was arrested February 9 on outstanding warrants. He spent close to two months in county before his revocation hearing came up.
Though the probation department wanted to send him to prison then, he ended up being sentenced to a six day stint in jail and released.

He wasn't out long before he again violated the terms of parole. Joshua turned himself in to the Mesa Police Department on April 19. He was sentenced to a year in prison on May 11, and is currently at the ADC's Phoenix Alhambra Unit.
Joshua's probation report indicates that he was supposed to complete a drug-counseling program given by the Salvation Army. But the Salvation Army discharged him after he "[left] the premises in the middle of the night without permission."
The report states that, "[Joshua] returned to the program a few hours later and was drug tested by the Salvation Army which reported he was positive marijuana."
In court for his latest violation, Joshua rejected further probation and took the time instead.
Earlier this year, Joshua was under investigation by the Mesa PD for alleged child abuse. This, because his infant daughter was brought to the hospital and diagnosed with a skull fracture.
Mesa cops did not believe Joshua was being truthful about how his daughter was injured. Ultimately, they concluded there was not enough evidence to charge him with a crime.
Child Protective Services allowed Johsua's mother LuAnne to take custody of the children. Joshua's wife Samantha has since filed for divorce.
According to the ADC Web site, Joshua could be up for supervised release as early as September 5 of this year. That's with credit for the time he's already served in county.
Recently, in a segment on Russell Pearce's relationship with neo-Nazi J.T. Ready, Fox 10 touched on the issue of a tattoo on Joshua's chest, which Ready has alleged is a Nazi eagle.
During an interview with Fox 10, Pearce admitted that the tattoo was "inappropriate" and that his son had the tattoo "covered up," though he denied that the tattoo had a swastika on it.
Which begs the question of why it had to be covered up, if there was no swastika? An eagle's head, BTW, is visible on Joshua's neck in various mug shots.
Ready has also said that in the past Joshua wanted to join the Aryan Brotherhood, a white supremacist prison-based gang.
If so, Joshua might finally be in a position to become a member and make his papa proud.

Hop-On To An iPod Look-alike
Posted by Sparky Categories: Cell Phones, Portable Audio / Video
Hop-On - a virtually unknown cellphone manufacturer - launched the biggest iPod phone rip off ever. The Hop-On features a touch sensitive screen, and click wheel control device. The phone is aimed at the MP3 phone market, yet fails to list internal memory to story MP3's on. The Hop-On does manage to have a Mini-SD slot, so at least 1GB of storage will be able to be bought for the phone. Dan Gannon, the CEO of Hop-On, is quoted as saying "Our market research studies showed that this design will be extremely successful" - I wonder if their market research studies also indicated that the design had been patented by Apple computer as well?

Corsair® launches 950 Watt power supply for gamers and PC enthusiasts
Corsair® launches 950 Watt power supply for gamers and PC enthusiasts
Corsair TX950W raises the bar for high-quality, affordable power supplies, thanks to massive 78A +12V rail, NVIDIA® SLI and ATI Crossfire support and 80 PLUS® Bronze certification
FREMONT, Calif., Oct. 6, 2009 - Corsair®, a worldwide leader in high performance memory and computer products, today announced the launch of the Corsair TX950W power supply unit (PSU), the latest addition to the award-winning TX-series of high-quality PSUs.
The TX950W has been designed to meet the demanding requirements of PC enthusiasts, creative professionals and gamers. The TX950W is built using industrial-grade components to ensure clean and stable voltages, and has been qualified to operate at 100% load at an ambient temperature of 50°C for unmatched reliability.
The Corsair TX950W boasts a dedicated +12V rail capable of delivering 78A (936W), which equates to 98.5% of the PSU's total power output. This makes it ideal for extreme, multi-GPU gaming systems using the latest multi-core CPUs, such as Intel® Core i5 and Core i7-series, all of which require high amounts of stable power at 12V.
"Corsair's TX650W, TX750W, and TX850W PSUs have dominated the market by offering superior performance and quality at affordable prices," said Jim Carlton, Vice President of Marketing at Corsair. "The TX950W raises the bar even higher, thanks to 80 PLUS Bronze efficiency, low noise, and output that's capable of reliably powering even the most demanding Dream PCs."
Thanks to the 80 PLUS Bronze certification, which guarantees at least 85% energy efficiency at typical load levels, the TX950W produces minimal waste heat and is extremely quiet. The high-quality 140mm cooling fan remains at its minimum speed until approximately 65% of the PSU's total load. Six 6+2-pin PCI-E cables are provided and the TX950W has been thoroughly tested for compatibility with NVIDIA SLI and ATI Crossfire solutions. The TX950W also boasts extra-long cables to support full-tower chassis.
The Corsair TX950W is available immediately from retailers and e-tailers, and is backed by a five-year warranty and comprehensive customer support via telephone, email, forum and the Tech Support Express helpdesk.
An image of the Corsair TX950W power supply can be downloaded from here

I recently used Loperamide for a period of 6 days...I have been off it for about 30 hours and my ears are ringing
I have a long history of misdiagnoses of my diverticulitis and how the associated toxin continues to adversely affect other parts of my internal organs. In 1977, while on active military duty with the US Army, I noticed that I was passing blood in my stool. My symptoms were misdiagnosed by all of the doctors and other attending medical personnel who had access to my medical care at the time and all the way up to 1996, when a female Lt Col Air Force doctor at Ramstein, GE found that my colon was the size of a lead pencil. I was referred to Landsthul, GE military hospital for an elective surgery to remove part of my colon which was determined infected. While drinking "go lite" to clear my colon, I couldn't pass the medicine. My surgery was declared an emergency because it was determined by the surgeon that my colon was close to bursting. During surgery, eight inches of my colon was removed and a colostomy was performed. A sack was attached to my side in order to bypass the surgical area. In 1988 I had diverticulitis of the appendix and my appendix almost ruptured. The attending doctor at Tinker AFB, OK wasn't adequately knowledgeable to detect this medical condition. The senior doctor/surgeon apologized for the young doctor's oversight and misdiagnoses. At the time my appendix health issue wasn't associated with my diverticulitis because this health condition was still being misdiagnosed by both military and civilian Internal Medicine physicians and other medical personnel. See attachment 1, Diverticulitis of the appendix. 2003 I had prostrate health issues which resulted in surgery to remove my enlarged prostrate. There is no family history for diverticulitis, appendicitis or enlarged prostrate. 2009 my left knee was replaced. In 2011 my right knee was replaced. I believe the toxins generated by my diverticulitis and the long time not being properly diagnosed, distributed these toxins throughout my body settling in these various places to include my joints causing deterioration and subsequent replacement. 2012 a colonoscopy found small amounts of diverticulitis still in my colon. 2014 I have surgery on my left shoulder joint. My right shoulder ACL (?) has health issues too. I believe that various parts of my body where the diverticulitis toxins can settle are deteriorating after years of exposure. I have been dealing with the VA for them to recognize these health issues associated with my diverticulitis, but they won't do the research, so I must fine the connections. I certainly would appreciate any assistance in this health issue.

This thing is the secret sauce behind all of my live recordings for the last few years. (Google me if you would like to hear this thing in action.) I would be happy to answer anybody's questions about it - I'm not connected to the company in any way, just love this thing.
My idea was to loop both vocals and electric guitar. You can do that--but either your voice is going to come out the guitar amp, or your guitar will be coming out the PA. I mean, you can designate a track to come out a certain output, either sub or main, but the inputs, your original voice and guitar, is always going to come out the same place. Boss customer support suggests I buy an effects processor with an amp modeling capability and thus make my PA act like a guitar amp, but nothing is going to recreate the sound of four ten-inch speakers and a stack of tubes. And don't even talk to me about a bass guitar amp.
So yeah, this is great with an acoustic guitar, and I'll use it for the electric guitar and give up the capability to loop vocals. It is a considerable improvement over the RC-30 in that the switchology is much more straightforward; you can focus on your song instead of where your foot goes next. The manual is mediocre but most settings are pretty intuitive. The sound is fabulous; no hint of loss or distortion in the recorded loops. Synchronization is great; easy to create consistent loops. Drum machine is great. Hell, maybe I would have bought it--but the main reason I upgraded from the RC-30 was to have that extra capability of separating the vocals and guitar, and I'm disappointed that I can't.
So after a year, here is what is wrong with my pedal that I HATE:
1. The effects pedal has completely stopped functioning, the switch for the effects also doesn't work.
2. The tempo change (on the stop button) is sensitive and has ruined multiple solos at a few shows. Not only that but if you save a loop and the tempo is altered, it will completely distort the sound that you originally saved.
3. The pedal overloads and stops in the middle of loops and will either erase your progress or glitch out trying to process whatever you are doing. Aka the software isn't extremely high functioning.
4. You have the ability to add pedals to this and add functions such as undo, and select beats... This is extremely complicated; I tried to add an undo pedal to this and it still to this day does not function properly.
5. Boss has a 1 year warranty on these, meaning, your warranty is just shy of the time in which your pedal will likely crap out on you.
The only thing I'm not very pleased with are on-board effects, they're absolutely horrible, but even though I don't regret a bit having this. Absolutely one of the best gear investments I've made so far.
Your all fired I don`t need anyone go back to your drinking .
No creative differences here.

QD Vision, Inc., manufacturer of quantum dot Color IQ™ optical components for LCD products, today announced the commercial availability of the industry's first green quantum dots (QD) at 30 nanometers Full-Width Half-Maximum (FWHM). With QD Vision's red QDs already at 30 nm, this announcement further reinforces QD Vision's leadership position in providing high performance, full-gamut QD display solutions. The new 30 nm green QDs offer the same high quantum efficiencies and reliable performance (under high-temperature and high-flux operating conditions) that are a signature of QD Vision's cutting-edge quantum dot materials, enabling display manufacturers to immediately benefit from increased performance when developing high-brightness, full-gamut color displays.

In QD LCD products, blue LED's are used together with red and green QDs. Together these products emit spectrally narrow red, green and blue colors to obtain full-gamut color at the best power efficiency. By controlling the FWHM of the QD emission through advanced manufacturing processes, QD Vision's green and red QDs deliver the necessary color saturation to achieve 100% overlap of any major color gamut standard. These new 30 nm FWHM Color IQ™ optics will further improve the color performance in LCD applications, such as TVs, monitors and all-in-one computers.
"QD Vision continues to keep quantum dots on the leading edge of display technology," said John Ritter, Executive Vice President of Product Development, QD Vision. "Our solutions offer the best down-conversion material on the market today, and we continue to develop even narrower FWHM products to produce the most saturated colors at the highest efficiencies for our customers, both now and in the future."
About Quantum Dots (QD)
QDs are semiconductor nanocrystals that possess unique light emitting optical properties. The emission wavelength spectrum of QD light can be tuned to create almost any color of the visible spectrum as defined by the CIE 1931 color space. FWHM, is a simple and well-defined specification used to measure the narrowness (spectral purity) of the emission from light emitting materials, such as QDs. In short, a narrower QD emission produces a wider color gamut, resulting in higher color fidelity and improved backlight performance.
When used in an LCD product, the backlight emission passes through a color filter. Some color filters allow light leakage from one color channel to another, resulting in de-saturated colors. Unlike conventional phosphors with much broader light emission (e.g. FWHM~60-100 nm), QDs have much narrower emission spectra, which helps to reduce the crosstalk between the color channels and improve system efficiency. Also unlike phosphors, the individual emission spectrum of QDs can be fine-tuned to match the peak wavelength of a given color filter to achieve the maximum gamut possible.
About QD Vision, Inc.
Privately held, QD Vision, Inc. is a nanomaterials product company delivering advanced display and lighting solutions that provide unparalleled color. QD Vision's Color IQ™ quantum dot technology is the industry's only optical component solution capable of delivering full-gamut color displays. QD Vision makes full-gamut televisions a commercial reality through precise color tuning, flexible and high-volume multi-SKU manufacturability, proven performance, and easy integration backed by a full range of tools, services and ecosystem support.

Kind of a lame reason that MGS4 couldn't come to 360. I feel like space shouldn't be that much of an issue, but whatever. I wouldn't expect them to do all that port work for a cheap re-release. Though maybe a port up that could improve that pretty terrible game could come to next gen games and that would be cool.
As for ZoE. Sounds like a nice way of saying it's been canceled. I kind of hope it's not, but at the same time I'd be fine if a new ZOE wasn't made. I've pretty much lost my faith in Kojima so any new game I came at cautiously, but I'm not sure I was digging the new style and setting.
As for ZoE HD. Well it was pretty bad on Ps3. So I'm pretty happy that there is a patch. Lame about the lack of a 360 patch, but I guess that was already the superior version. Still it's a shame that emulating the PS2 game is the better option.
But hey maybe if you guys went with a better developer like bluebox again, your HD ports would have turned out better. I guess maybe the sales of a ZoE HD version wouldn't have been worth the better development house, but jesus Konami you are so terrible this gen. I mean you release MGS HD the same day as the new CoD, you're terrible handling of all things Silent Hill, and your general lack of ability to make games this gen. But maybe if ZoE HD was'nt crap more people would have bought it and you would know fans want ZoE.
But I guess fans don't. How many damn times has he asked "do fans want ZoE". I guess not enough for a new one.

It's really just "we aren't going to do a lot work for a another re-release". One we just announced out of nowhere as well. It really doesn't make sense to as well.
And it's just not MGS4. They'd also have to port MGS1 to Xbox. Obviously not as hard, but still something that has to happen.

I'm talking in terms of coding and patching games to fix issues. Konami refuses to fix the problems/patch the issues with Silent Hill HD collection on the 360. Meanwhile bethesda never fully released the final update patches for fallout 3/newvegas ps3 and it took them a year to release the expansions skyrim for the ps3. If a company does not like to code or make games for a certain piece of hardware then they usually cut corners or skip out on it completely.

|I don't think Konami "Hates" Xbox, it just makes more sense for a Japanese company to focus on the system Japan actually buys.

The latest MGS typically have more sales in the West than in Japan though. They know it's a franchise that easily goes beyond Japan.
On that note, Konami recently announced:
Anyways, the next Xbox is coming, so it may go there.

|MGS4 with degraded quality and spanning multiple disks on the XBox would be funny just because of the cutscene in the game itself that openly mocks the very idea.

The reason ZoE HD on 360 probably isn't getting a patch is that it apparently costs tens of thousands of dollars to patch a 360 game, while it's free for PS3.
And for what it's worth in regards to Bethesda- the PS3 is known for being very hard to actually develop games for. That's something they're actively acknowledging with the PS4.

I mean to be fair, I have no idea how game storage works. It's not like games of bigger scope, with more audio, and what not aren't on 1 dvd. I kind of want to say it probably has more to do with the crappy engine they used.
And yes it was very funny that MGS4 had it's "ah Blu ray" codec conversation.
Except it wasn't funny, because before that patch the game had to have that install for each chapter and now it's just one big install. Yeah I think I can get up from my seat and put in a disc over having a game take up so much space.

The things is, saying it would take 7 DVDs on 360 is a load of crap.
The game is a total of 27GB.
Now, if they compressed the audio, and also used compression if needed on the textures, this could easily be 2-3 discs tops, which is a manageable amount.
I think the real reason they aren't porting it is because it would take too much work and they know they wouldn't make the sales to justify the extra investment needed.
Of course they can't come out and say that can they, so instead we are told it's not possible without using 7 discs... lol
And yet Ground Zeroes and The Phantom Pain are apparently coming out on PS3, 360 and next-gen consoles.

News Corp Chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch is looking to buy the Los Angeles Times, one of the country's largest newspapers, from struggling media conglomerate Tribune Co, a source familiar with his plans says.
Rupert Murdoch is also eyeing the Chicago Tribune, whose publisher Tribune Co is now trying to exit bankruptcy. News Corp executives are in early talks with Tribune Co debtholders, including hedge fund Oaktree Capital. The company wants to secure footholds in Los Angeles and Chicago, according to the Los Angeles Times, which first reported the news.
Murdoch has long eyed the LA Times, the newspaper reported. Oaktree declined to comment, while News Corp did not respond immediately to requests for comment.
Wall Street has speculated that the company will take to the acquisition trail after its split into two businesses, one for entertainment and the other for publishing, to bulk up its holdings in a newspaper industry ravaged by advertising revenue losses and declining readership.
But any attempt by the media mogul to go after the two newspapers may run foul of regulatory hurdles.
Murdoch controls the Wall Street Journal - which vies with USA Today for the mantle of the largest-circulation US newspaper - and the New York Post. News Corp last year was embroiled in a major scandal over phone hacking that eventually prompted it to close its British News of the World tabloid.
Also, Federal Communications Commission rules prevent ownership of a newspaper and TV station in the same market. News Corp now owns two Fox stations in LA, and two in Chicago, the newspaper reported.
The commission however has considered eliminating the rule and has granted exceptions in the past, including a waiver that allowed the Tribune to operate both KTLA-TV Channel 5 and the Los Angeles Times, the LA Times reported.
Murdoch also might face competition from well-known local figures. Other potential bidders include former venture capitalist and ex-LA deputy mayor Austin Beutner, Orange County Register owner Aaron Kushnere, and San Diego real estate mogul Doug Manchester, the newspaper said.
The Tribune Co, which owns 23 TV stations in addition to newspapers, filed for bankruptcy four years ago. Its other newspapers include the Baltimore Sun in Maryland, the Orlando Sentinel and Sun Sentinel in Florida, and the Hartford Courant in Connecticut.
In 2007, real estate mogul Sam Zell acquired Tribune through a leveraged buyout that saddled the company with $13 billion in debt just as the newspaper industry was hit by a severe drop in advertising revenue.
The company filed for bankruptcy a year later and has been mired in court while its creditors have fought over competing exit plans ever since.
Since 2007, newspaper advertising revenue for the industry has dropped almost 50 per cent to US$24 billion, according to the Newspaper Association of America.

DNC 2012: Julian Castro Speech Makes for Some Awkward Signs
Republicans are pros at pandering. When they come to Miami, they always appear at Versailles Café and rage about the Cuban regime. And, of course, they held their convention in Tampa last week in an effort to court curmudgeonly Florida voters.
Democrats? Not so much. They are sure to have lost some Sunshine State support after last night's keynote address in Charlotte, North Carolina. San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro delivered a great speech, but those "Castro Country" signs aren't going to go down well with Cubanos.
While convention organizers and TV pundits seemed to miss the strangeness of the "Castro Country" and "Viva Castro" signs, the awkward moment wasn't lost on everyone.
Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman quickly tweeted a dictator joke:

Two suspects have been identified in the homicide of a young man during a Fourth of July celebration.
Johnnie Nelson, 26, from Reading, and Eric Harding, 23, from Gouglersville, have been charged in connection with the crime, investigators said.
The suspects conspired to kill 26-year-old Darryl Jones of Birdsboro, after a Fourth of July celebration, police said.
The victim leaves behind a girlfriend of 11 years, who is the mother of his three young children.
"It just breaks my heart that my kids have to grow up without their father," said Sierra Pacheco. "He was killed over nothing basically. It was a 4th of July day. No one deserves to get murdered like that."
Pacheco said she had plans to get married to the victim next year.
Loved ones added, the homicide happened on the same day the victim was planning to celebrate his 4-year-old daughter's birthday.
"Sometimes, I don't even know what to tell her," said Pacheco. "What do you tell a 4-year-old child? How do you tell her that she never going to see her father every again?"
Police say the victim left that Fourth of July get-together with the two suspects, and his body was discovered in the early morning hours of July 5.
Police say no one in the area reported hearing gunshots.
"That night there were fireworks going off," said Sgt. John Solecki, Reading Police Dept., "which would have disguised the gunshots. So that's why no one called in the gunshots when they heard them because everyone in the neighborhood just assumed it was more fireworks going off."
The two suspects are already in jail on an unrelated matter, police said.
Authorities are still working to uncover a motive.
Meanwhile family members say they will be waiting for justice.

Eric Risberg, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Doctors are warning that if Congress cuts food stamps, the federal government could be socked with bigger health bills. Maybe not immediately, they say, but over time if the poor wind up in doctors' offices or hospitals as a result.
Among the health risks of hunger are spiked rates of diabetes and developmental problems for young children down the road.
The doctors' lobbying effort comes as Congress is working on a compromise farm bill that's certain to include food stamp cuts. Republicans want heftier reductions than do Democrats in yet another partisan battle over the government's role in helping poor Americans.
Food stamps, known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP, feed 1 in 7 Americans and cost almost $80 billion a year, twice what it cost five years ago. Conservatives say the program spiraled out of control as the economy struggled and the costs are not sustainable. They say the neediest people will not go hungry.
The health and financial risks of hunger have not played a major role in the debate. But the medical community says cutting food aid could backfire through higher Medicaid and Medicare costs.
"If you're interested in saving health care costs, the dumbest thing you can do is cut nutrition," said Dr. Deborah Frank of Boston Medical Center, who founded the Children's HealthWatch pediatric research institute.
"People don't make the hunger-health connection."
A study published this week helps illustrate that link. Food banks report longer lines at the end of the month as families exhaust their grocery budgets, and California researchers found that more poor people with a dangerous diabetes complication are hospitalized then, too.
The researchers analyzed eight years of California hospital records to find cases of hypoglycemia, when blood sugar plummets, and link them to patients' ZIP codes.
Among patients from low-income neighborhoods, hospitalizations were 27 percent higher in the last week of the month compared with the first, when most states send out government checks and food stamps, said lead researcher Dr. Hilary Seligman of the University of California, San Francisco. But hospitalizations didn't increase among diabetics from higher-income areas, she reported Tuesday in the journal Health Affairs.
Seligman couldn't prove that running low on food was to blame. But she called it the most logical culprit and said the cost of treating hypoglycemia even without a hospitalization could provide months of food stamp benefits.
"The cost trade-offs are sort of ridiculous," Seligman said.
She is working on a project with Feeding America, a network of food banks, to try to improve health by providing extra, diabetes-appropriate foods, including fresh produce and whole-grain cereals and pastas, for diabetics at a few food banks in California, Texas and Ohio.
Last year, research from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and The Pew Charitable Trusts estimated that a cut of $2 billion a year in food stamps could trigger in an increase of $15 billion in medical costs for diabetes over the next decade.
Other research shows children from food-insecure families are 30 percent more likely to have been hospitalized for a range of illnesses. But after a temporary boost in benefits from the 2009 economic stimulus, children whose families used food stamps were significantly more likely to be well than kids in low-income families that didn't participate, Children's HealthWatch found. About half of food stamp recipients are children, and 10 percent are elderly.
How much would be cut from the food-stamp program ranges from $400 million a year in a Senate-passed farm bill to $4 billion a year in the House version. Congressional negotiators now are eyeing about $800 million a year in cuts.
