TIVS.ca is a website that tracks and indexes the trade in values of video games at all participating retailers in Canada. Now we can finally be in your pocket without a wireless connection! Update when it's convenient for you, and never have to worry about your internet pages reloading without a signal again! FEATURES * Fully searchable game database * Filter games by where they qualify for promotions, including filtering by date of last known update * Local storage of data to reduce loading times * Streamlined update process to keep you up to date * Comprehensive list of all current-generation home gaming consoles THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW * EB -> EB Games * TS -> The Source * FS -> Future Shop * BB -> Best Buy * For more information about what tivs does and general information, visit www.tivs.ca and feel free to ask questions/get involved with the community at www.tivs.ca/forum/ * Values for games are updated regularly, and depend on users to help support.

Battlefield 4 has over 12GB of additional install options on Xbox 360, DICE recommends them
Battlefield 4 has a mandatory 2GB install on Xbox 360, and over 12GB of additional installations should you wish to use them. DICE recommends doing them, however.
In an update posted on the EA Blog, DICE confirmed the mandatory 2GB install and added that Battlefield 4's first disc houses the multiplayer, and offers an optional 6.6 GB of content, while the second campaign disc holds 5.8 GB of content.
You can choose to run these off the disc, but the blog continues, "We highly recommend performing these additional installations to make sure you have the best experience possible in Battlefield 4."
Better start clearing your hard drive space if you want the best experience folks.
I wrote my impressions of the Battlefield 4 beta here.

If you know that then you should also know that he doesnt wrap up when he tackles, is not great in coverage, and is a better workout warrior than football player.

I recently upgraded to 2.7, and pretty much everything seems to be working alright on the site itself. However, in the admin area I can do everything except edit or add new pages. I can edit posts, but not pages. Here is a screenshot of what I see when I try:
As you can see, there isn't an error, but the box to edit just isn't there. I've tried everything I can think of, I've searched for answers, I deactivated all plugins, I reuploaded the wp-admin folder. I get the same thing with IE or Firefox.
I can't find an example of anyone else getting any kind of error like this, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't really hate anything about the United States or its constitution or the principles of our justice system. I hate the politicians and lobbyists who attempt to abort it on a daily basis, and manipulate the public into believing it's for their safety/wellbeing.
Written by MetallicA on 05.10.2015 at 05:21
I like my country. I know it has its problems though. It's definitely far from perfect.
One thing I hate are the constant shootings. I'm a responsible gun owner and I'm all about being able to go shoot for fun but holy shit, this is getting ridiculous! I don't think more gun control will help either...criminals will be criminals and they'll acquire guns anyways (usually illegally).
I hate the media here. The media is so beyond fucked...they skew everything and the masses just eat it up. Most people will believe anything and won't even bother doing more research on the subject. This isn't really media related but I saw an article in my facebook feed and it was about a private company hiring anyone to go and kill ISIS with a starting pay of $600,000 per year. It was fake (I mean come on, that's ridiculous!) but some of my friends totally believed it until I said it was fake and pointed out that the website's domain was wrong.

Gun control does help reduce crime/shootings (common sense, jeez....). Certainly does not end the whole thing, but has enough impact to make it mandatory if you want to reduce the number of victims related to it.

I hate how quick we are to say our country or our people suck, and yet we don't do anything to solve it. We give up easily or try to ignore the issues. Even our nationally acclaimed writings are based on the same "give up" mentality.

I was talking about Miorita, when the main character finds out the other two shepherds want to kill him, he immediately accepts it as a given that he is going to die and starts lamenting about it. He doesn't do a single freaking thing to prevent that from happening, he just gives up and cries about it. It's so representative for our mentality, we just complain instead of trying to solve. I know some of the things we're complaining about are too complicated to solve as a regular citizen, but we don't even do our share.

I'm moving a WP installation to a new VPS from a shared host.
On the new VPS, I'm having trouble with some plugins (two at least) which use functions to get base urls, e.g. admin_url() and plugins_url().
These functions refuse to add a slash at the end of their output.
For example, after upgrading Advanced Custom Fields, the "Upgrade Database" button url is: https://www.domain.com/wp-adminedit.php?post_type=acf&page=acf-upgrade, whereas it should obviously be "wp-admin/edit..."
These plugins and functions work fine in various other installations on various other servers (at least three shared hosting servers I use them on.)
I've also tried these functions in my functions.php file to see what they do there, and it's the same problem. If I pass an appendage to the function, then the slash is left off at the end of the appendage. For example:
gives me "http://www.domain.com/wp-content/plugins/myplugin". But in the case of these plugins, there's content added after "myplugin", but no slash is appended, causing failure for css or other links.
I assume it's something to do with my php setup...? I've followed the instructions for Linode WP installation as perfectly as I can.
What am I missing?

Amazon.com Review
The impetus for River Horse is one of intrigue--less urgent than the departure in Blue Highways--and the narrative possesses a captivating pull as it courses westward through the strongest currents and pauses in the back eddies of contemporary American life. Least Heat-Moon is in his element. Written in short thematic chapters, River Horse plies canals, greets the Missouri's many moods, and challenges chaotic waves. Indeed, the turbulent and placid waters of America flow throughout this well-told story. When Nikawa finally reaches the Pacific Ocean, Least Heat-Moon has discovered a new America in the country he knows so well. He ponders the command that rivers hold on him and celebrates the national treasures that they are. Exceeding 500 pages, River Horse may be a long journey, but when traveling by rivers, America is a larger country. A triumphant book all the way to the salty Pacific. --Byron Ricks --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

"Life changing" – that's the best way to describe these
As I've said 763 times before, breakfast is so important.
You should never skip it. But I understand it can be a hassle if you haven't planned ahead, run out of time, feel lazy, etc.
If you need quick breakfast ideas, here are 10 that I love.
If you are feeling lazy, I have an answer to your lazy breakfast problems…
Oven Baked Protein Pancakes!
You have no idea how amazing this is for me {and for all of you now, too!}
No more flipping pancakes or making them every single morning.
No. Now all you do is make a big batch and stick them in the oven.
I know they don't look like regular pancakes, but honestly, I could care less when it means I had like no work to do to make these gems.
I'm not lying when I call them gems because they are amazing!
First of all, I get over 150 views on these babies every single day!
{That's not a lot for most food bloggers, but for this humble little blog, it's huge}
Plus they taste great – really really great. They are super healthy & keep you full all morning
Check out these stats: 1 serving is 180 calories, about 6g fat, 16g carbs, and 15g protein!
If you cut them bigger, it's still amazing – 240 calories, 8g fat, 21g carbohydrate, 2.5g fiber, and 20g protein
I totally borrowed this idea from Lynn's Kitchen Adventures, and now I won't have any excuse not to make my breakfast for the week.
And neither do you!
Try these this weekend and don't tell anyone how you made them until after they have gobbled them up. {I guarantee that anyone will like these! They are that good}
Have a nice weekend!

Singer Michael Penn Travels to '1947'
Studio Set
Songs played by Michael Penn:
- "A Bad Sign"
- "Long Way Down"
- "Denton Road"
- "Walter Reed"
Since his astounding success in 1990 with the song "No Myth," singer/songwriter Michael Penn has enjoyed a devoted following. His new album, Mr. Hollywood Jr., 1947, takes a look at post-World War II America.
Penn's career has taken interesting twists and turns over the years, sometimes intersecting with the world of Hollywood. While his brothers Sean and Chris have pursued acting, Michael Penn has worked with director Paul Thomas Anderson, writing music for several of his movies, including Hard Eight and Boogie Nights. He also wrote the score for the independent film Melvin Goes To Dinner.
His music has also led Penn to collaborate with notable names like Aimee Mann and Liz Phair. But for Mr. Hollywood Jr.,, Penn produced the record himself.

"SAINT-EMILION" Top 5 Page for this destination Saint-Émilion by Toyin
Saint-Émilion Travel Guide: 116 reviews and 413 photos
Saint Emilion is renowned for wine, but it wasnt the wine that took me to this wined village. It was recommended by a friend who knows the place well to think it is good for the first trip in the new year. Bordeaux was my base.
You will never be alone in Saint Emilion. You will be accompanied everywhere by the spirit of the town and the memory of its founding fathers.
Where ever you go in the town, you will be struck by the inherent harmony. All the houses have the same warm colour, as they are made from the luminous.
- Pros:An Extraordinary Ensemble of Underground Monuments.
- Cons:The weather is not very good for Photography
- In a nutshell:A jewel of Stones.

A terrible restaurant. Fries were totally cold. Medium rare steak was well done. Avoid this place.
Since I always drink wine rather than beer, I was quite fascinated by your descriptions, suggestions, and insights about Saint-Emillion. Thanks for a quality look at a beautiful place.
The wines would certainly be an attraction. Visibility can sure be bad, but when it clears.. just delightful. Some great vintages there:-)
Great suggestions! Thanks for sharing. Haha, no wine from Toyin's Saint-Émilion?
Nice page Toyin! I particularly liked the Monolithic Church there! Thanks for sharing!
This place looks so beautiful and tranquil. I love wine and would love to visit someday. Your tips are very helpful. E
Cool !!! Looks like my kinda holiday :o) Do you have a favourite wine from here? We all want to know that tip :o) Cheers, Ann.
Great page!
Wonderful page again, Toyin. Thanks for sharing.
Toyin, you are off to a great start this year! I'm envious... As always, you give great detail and advice in your tips... Great Job! ;-)

Truancy: What's the big deal?
Published: Sunday, August 7, 2011 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, August 5, 2011 at 11:38 a.m.
Terrebonne Parish District Attorney Joseph Waitz Jr.'s concern about the education of children in the community prompted him to create a Truancy Reduction Intervention Program, or TRIP, in 2003 to help curb juvenile crime by reducing the amount of truant kids in Terrebonne Parish.
With this intervention, his staff has worked with state and local officials to defer truancy in Terrebonne Parish. Louisiana enacted tougher truancy laws and students are now considered truant when they have five unexcused absences from school for one semester.
Parents of habitually truant or tardy children could be cited for improper supervision of a minor, or the child could be referred to Houma City Court as an incorrigible juvenile. This has been done to encourage parents to take an active role in their children's education.
In recent research conducted by the Office for Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, links between truancy and other, more serious forms of delinquency have been delineated. Truancy should be viewed as a community problem because it goes beyond the school grounds.
Studies have found that family, school and economic factors are associated with higher rates of truancy. Family factors that increase the risk of truancy include lack of supervision, physical and psychological abuse and failure of the family to encourage or value education.
Research has also shown that U.S. school districts with the highest truancy rates also have the lowest academic achievement rates, and truancy is a warning that a child may drop out. Students are not allowed to drop out of school until their 18th birthday.
Failure in school not only impacts the individual, but also affects society. Dropouts cannot attend college, are more likely to have low-paying jobs and feel a lack of concern for the community, state and country. In a 2009 news release, Dr. Diane Sasser of the LSU AgCenter, said that parents, school and communities can help reduce truancy.
Here are ways parents can help:
- Indicating to their children the importance in getting a good education, which will in turn lead to better jobs and better circumstances.
- Meeting with school administration and faculty to discuss how to help their children, getting past the "I-hated-school-as-a-kid" fears and into the "I-want-what-is-best-for-my-child-even-if-it-means-walking-into-the-school-I-dreaded" proactive approach.
- Seeing the school as a partner in their children's education.
- Setting aside supervised homework time in a quiet area.
- Keeping children accountable for their work.
Here are ways schools can help:
- Making class work and homework more palatable, more localized, more individualized and developmentally appropriate.
- Teaching for the joy of learning rather than to the test.
- Creating a nurturing environment for students and faculty.
- Making students feel welcome and valued.
- Encouraging partnerships among parents, children and schools, more than just parent-teacher conferences and PTO meetings.
- Stepping away from the "I'm-the-teacher-and-I-know-what-is-right" paradigm and into the "I-know-the-subject-matter,-but-you're-the-expert-on-your-child.-Let's-work-together" process.
- Praising children for hard work.
Here are ways communities can help:
- Supporting schools and students through volunteerism and after-school programs.
- Employers and employees can encourage workers and co-workers in how important their children's education can be for everyone's future.
- Individuals can offer tutoring.
Truancy is more than an issue; it's an epidemic that needs to be stopped. Bernadette Robinet Pickett, assistant district attorney and director of the Children's Advocacy Center, along with Sandra Bell-Brown, truancy coordinator for the Terrebonne Parish District Attorney's Office, the Terrebonne Parish School Board's Child Welfare and Attendance Office and City Court of Houma have collaborated in making truancy reduction a top priority.
It seems that the old African proverb holds true, "It takes a village to raise a child."

Keith Butler
Defensive Coordinator
Keith Butler is in his first season as the team's defensive coordinator, after being promoted to the position on January 13, 2015.
Butler had served as the team's linebackers coach for 12 seasons (2003-2014). He was originally hired by the Steelers on January 28, 2003, after serving the previous four seasons (1999-2002) as the linebackers' coach of the Cleveland Browns. Butler remained on the Steelers' staff following Mike Tomlin's hiring in January of 2007.
Keith Butler
Defensive Coordinator
Keith Butler is in his first season as the team's defensive coordinator, after being promoted to the position on January 13, 2015.
Butler had served as the team's linebackers coach for 12 seasons (2003-2014). He was originally hired by the Steelers on January 28, 2003, after serving the previous four seasons (1999-2002) as the linebackers' coach of the Cleveland Browns. Butler remained on the Steelers' staff following Mike Tomlin's hiring in January of 2007.
Butler and Tomlin previously worked together at Memphis in 1996, when Butler coached the linebackers, defensive ends and special teams units, and Tomlin served as the Tigers' defensive backs coach.
Since Butler arrived in Pittsburgh in 2003, he has been instrumental in the development of the Steelers' highly touted linebacking corps. He was honored in 2008 when he was named NFL Linebacker Coach of the Year by Pro Football Weekly.
In 2014, the linebacking unit was led by Lawrence Timmons, who was selected to his first Pro Bowl. The iron man started all 16 games on the season, and has started a team-best 69 consecutive regular-season games. Timmons led the Steelers with 132 tackles, which was good for second-most in the AFC. It marked the fourth time in the last five seasons he recorded at least 100 tackles in a single season.
Butler also was reunited with James Harrison in 2014. Harrison was signed early in the season due to a number of injuries sustained by the linebacking group. He recored 5.5 sacks on the year and moved into second place on the team's all-time sacks list with 69.5, since sacks became an official statistic in 1982. Harrison also tied Jason Gildon for the most-multi sack games in team history (17).
In 2013, linebackers Timmons and Jason Worilds led a unit that lost two veterans, Larry Foote and LaMarr Woodley, to season-ending injuries. Timmons led the team with a career-high 155 tackles. Worilds led the team with a career-high eight sacks.
Butler's linebackers helped Pittsburgh's defense secure the NFL's number-one ranking in 2012. Five different linebackers each recorded four or more sacks in 2012 for the first time in team history, since sacks became an official statistic in 1982. Timmons had a memorable 2012 campaign, as he became the first Steeler to lead the team or tie for the team high in tackles, interceptions and sacks since Joey Porter in 2002.
Butler's guidance helped Harrison become one of the league's most elite performers. Harrison, the 2008 NFL Defensive Player of the Year, earned two straight team MVP awards (2007-08), recorded the longest interception return in Super Bowl history, a 100-yarder for a touchdown in Super Bowl XLIII, and five straight Pro Bowl Selections (2007-11). Harrison still holds the team record for sacks in a season, a career-high 16 in 2008.
Butler's coaching also guided Woodley, who owns an NFL record for posting two sacks in each of his first four postseason games. Besides Harrison, Woodley is the only player in team history to record 10 or more sacks in a season for three straight years (2008-10). Harrison and Woodley have accounted for two of the top four sack totals by a Steelers' duo in team history. The two teamed up in 2008 to produce the most sacks in a single-season by a duo (27.5).
Prior to joining the Browns' staff, Butler spent nine years coaching in the college ranks, beginning at his alma mater, Memphis, where he coached linebackers from 1990-97, and also coached defensive ends and special teams (1995-97). He then served as defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at Arkansas State in 1998.
Butler was selected by the Seattle Seahawks in the second round of the 1978 NFL Draft and played linebacker for 10 seasons (1978-87), all with Seattle. He started 132-of-146 games in his career, and still ranks second on the club's all-time tackles list with 813.
A three-year starter at inside linebacker for Memphis, Butler led the team in tackles his junior and senior seasons. He finished his collegiate career with 384 tackles and seven interceptions. He was named a 1977 Associated Press All-American and played in the 1977 Senior Bowl and Blue-Gray All-Star Game. Butler was born in Anniston, Ala. He and his wife Janet have three sons, Blake, Brandon and Brett.

INDIANAPOLIS -- They say you can't manufacture drama. But there was plenty of it in evidence at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on Pole Day.
The new qualification format for the Indianapolis 500 certainly contributed to the tension. It allowed a pair of Brazilians to experience the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat within a three-minute span as Team Penske's Helio Castroneves claimed his second pole for the Memorial Day Classic.
Castroneves and Tony Kanaan took advantage of Indy's new qualifying rules (which allow each driver as many as three four-lap runs per day) to withdraw their earlier speeds to make exciting, last-minute efforts.
Castroneves' run starting at 5:53 p.m. toppled Dario Franchitti from the top of the scoring pylon, which had been occupied by the No. 27 Andretti Green Racing pilot for more than five hours.
Four minutes later, Franchitti's teammate Kanaan started a run that ultimately came up just short in denying his countryman the top starting spot and the $100,000 prize that accompanies it. The 6 o'clock gun fired during Kanaan's third lap, and at the time, he was up on Castroneves' 225.817 mph average.
But an Indianapolis qualifying run constitutes four laps, and Kanaan's 225.358-mph final tour was slow enough to drop his overall average to 225.757 mph.
"I don't think AGR likes me very much because this is the same way I got my last pole here [in 2003]," said Castroneves. "Tony did a great job and Andretti Green is an incredible team. They make us keep pushing.
"My team said, 'We're behind you 100 percent if you want to make another try,' " Helio added. "It was a good decision to put the car back in line. They trust me, we kept digging and we found what we needed."
The 32-year-old Sao Paulo native earned Team Penske's 14th Indy pole to match its 14 race wins. Castroneves is responsible for two of those race wins, in 2001 and '02. Castroneves is also the IRL's career pole leader with 19.
Franchitti posted 225.191 mph as the number to beat at 12:53 p.m. and spent the next five hours working on his tan in pit lane with wife Ashley Judd. With Castroneves' and Kanaan's runs coming so late, the Scotsman was unable to get back in his car and respond.
Dario wasn't too upset despite his late slide from pole to the outside of the front row, matching his best career starting position at Indianapolis.
"I'm pleasantly surprised because I was expecting about a 224.5," Franchitti reported. "The car was on the edge from corner to corner and I was adjusting to keep it in the envelope.
"It's certainly a big change from a year ago when no one from Andretti Green was even close to the pole."
This year, AGR qualified all five of its entries on Indy's first qualifying day, when only the top 11 cars are locked into the field. Danica Patrick will start immediately ahead of Marco Andretti in eighth place, while team owner Michael Andretti survived an hour on the Pole Day "bubble" to earn the 11th spot.
"I'm very proud of the team, especially the teamwork between Tony and Dario," said Michael, who will make his 16th attempt at winning Indianapolis.
While Team Penske grabbed the pole and put defending race winner Sam Hornish Jr. fifth on the grid, heavily favored Target/Ganassi Racing walked away disappointed after Scott Dixon and Dan Wheldon qualified fourth and sixth.
Both Ganassi drivers made second attempts during the 5 o'clock hour, but they didn't gain enough speed to even move up to the front row.
Wheldon called his initial 223.686-mph effort "dismal" and he found only 1 mph more when he went out later. "There's definitely more speed in our car, but for some reason we didn't get it out."
Hornish added to the excitement with a pair of qualifying runs that each had a hairy moment in Turn 1. Those bobbles were enough to deny the Ohioan a second consecutive Indy pole.
"The same thing happened, just in different parts of the run," he said. "For whatever reason, our car wasn't as consistent over a four-lap run as we would like it to have been. Both times we ended up in the same scenario where I was getting ready to close my eyes and get ready to hit the wall."
Roger Penske has won and lost poles at Indianapolis and even failed to qualify by not getting the strategy right. But IndyCar racing's most successful team had everything timed right on Saturday.
"We really rolled the dice there at then end and we knew Kanaan would be strong," Penske stated. "But we've done that in the past with [Rick] Mears and with Helio.
"The new format was fantastic and it put some spirit back into qualifications like we used to see," Penske added.
Indeed, the prospect of the quick guys and girls getting more than one shot at the pole kept things interesting right up to the final gun. It's a shame that more fans weren't there to see it, with attendance estimated at 20,000 on a perfect Indiana spring day.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the new format, though it depended on your perspective.
"I really think it was a success," Franchitti said. "But what a horrible, stressful day, though ..."

Maybe he really was born in Kenya.
While touring New Orleans yesterday, President Obama met a woman named "Wheezy," and remarked that it was just like in the 70s sitcom, "Sanford and Son."
"Weezie? Really, like … Weezy?" Obama asked, according to the Chicago Sun Times. "Like in 'Sanford and Son?'"
However, the crowd was quick to correct him, according to CNN.
That character, portrayed by Isabel Sanford, was part of the CBS classic, "The Jeffersons." It's the saga of George and Louise "Wheezy" Jefferson, who climbed the socio-economic ladder to a deluxe apartment in a fancy Manhattan apartment.
"Sanford and Son," starring the great Redd Foxx, was about a junkman.
Obama was touring Treme, a predominantly black neighborhood devastated 10 years ago by Hurricane Katrina.
The president laughed off the mistake, singing a few bars of the show's theme song, "Movin' on Up."
We're not saying the president isn't a real American, but if he grew up in this country in the late 1970s, he should have known the difference. Not all black TV comedies are alike. Only their laughtracks are.

Just because you're dead and buried doesn't mean your severed head can't go on an amazing, 300-year journey -- and talk about it.
Oliver Cromwell's notorious noggin speaks in Marc Hartzman's new book, The Embalmed Head of Oliver Cromwell: A Memoir.
For those of you who slept through history class, Cromwell led an uprising against the British monarchy that resulted in the beheading of King Charles I. He served as lord protector of England until his death in 1658 and was buried in Westminster Abbey.
Naturally, a few years later, when King Charles II restored the royal family to power, it was payback time.
Cromwell was dug up and posthumously beheaded. His defiled head hung from a Westminster Hall post for 20 years. And that's when his skull-twisting, three-century journey began.
Maybe Cromwell's head didn't grant Hartzman an exclusive, but this fictionalized account recounts one of history's strangest tales in a way you'll never forget.
Hartzman joins us for this week's HuffPost Weird News Podcast, to talk about his new book, his career as a sideshow scribe, and the fantastic story of how he helped a bearded lady reunite with her bearded son after decades of separation.
Hartzman is a longtime blogger for HuffPost Weird News, and we're proud to publish an excerpt from his book:
THE EMBALMED HEAD OF OLIVER CROMWELL (An Excerpt)
Victory swept through the cold, grey air that 30th of January in the year of Our Lord 1649, when, upon the scaffolding, my greatest military and political efforts at last proved triumphant. The trial at Westminster Hall resulted in grand success and the High Court of Justice made its unprecedented decision, sentencing King Charles I to be the last the Commonwealth would know of his tyrannical kind.
The judgment announced: "He, the said Charles Stuart, as a tyrant, traitor, murderer and public enemy to the good of this nation, shall be put to death by severing of his head from his body."
On that most delightful morning of the execution, Charles enjoyed one final walk in St. James Park through the naked trees and along the lake with his faithful dog. One last moment of companionship; one last moment to bask in the glory of the land he ruled.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the festivities commenced. An escort led the king through the Banqueting House at the Palace of Whitehall, out a window, and onto a scaffold built on the street, draped in black cloth. There, amongst the crowd of joyous Parliamentarians and dismayed royalists, the masked executioner stood over the powerless tyrant. Charles dressed warmly in thick robes over his waistcoat to avoid shivering, fearing that witnesses might see him as the weak man he truly was. He wore heels to elevate his short stature, though this deceived no one. As he awaited his fate, the realisation grew clear that Providence would not save him, for He had granted no such divine rights to the throne after all. God's will, in fact, appeared quite the contrary.
"Is my hair well?" he asked the executioner. Vanity prevailed even in his final moments. Assured his appearance was in order, including his neatly tapered Van Dyck, the pious king looked upward and uttered a prayer imperceptible to anyone but himself and the Lord above and then said these last words, for only the closest gathered to hear:
"I have delivered to my conscience; I p-p-pray God you do take those courses that are best for the g-g-good of the kingdom and your own salvation. I shall go from a corruptible to an incorruptible Crown, where no d-d-disturbance can be."
I appreciated the brevity of his words, for it spared us his awful stammer and the moment of glory would be prolonged no further. Charles informed the axe man that he would stretch his arms forward when he was ready, and implored him to make the deed quick. With tension mounting amongst those gathered in the street, he at last stooped to the scaffold and laid down upon the block, his neck without defence, and gave the signal. The executioner slowly raised the axe as the hushed crowd looked on in disbelief, awaiting a moment unparalleled in history. Seconds later the blade fell swiftly and, with one clean blow, severed both the head and the English monarchy. Blood splattered like a fountain of treason. The executioner held the pate up high and exclaimed, "Behold the head of a traitor!"
Acclamations of the soldiery mixed with the collective groans and sobs of the royalists, all of which echoed harmoniously through London. Those who still believed in the power of the king stepped up to the scaffold and, for a fee, dipped handkerchiefs in his blood to be wiped upon wounds. This, they foolishly alleged, would serve as a cure to their ailments. At the very least, it would be a fine souvenir.
After these events, I assumed control of the Rump Parliament and within a short time became the first Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland. Never, though, did I expect to meet a similar fate just a few short years later. Nor did I expect that my own head, severed posthumously, would experience a new life and journey through the land for the next three centuries. (Read More)

And one more shout-out, to Stephie Coplan, who wrote and performed the theme song to the new book, "Hey Oliver Cromwell!"

We want to take another moment to thank all of those who backed us and all the fans for your support! Without all of you, this game, and this campaign never would have happened. Some of you have been with us since the very beginning, and some of you just discovered The 13th Doll through Kickstarter, but, all of you are appreciated.
There are also more people than we could possibly thank for their individual contributions directly or indirectly to our campaign. Here is a short list that is in no way complete:
- Members of both the original and current Trilobyte team, including Graeme Devine, Rob Landeros, The Fat Man, Charlie McHenry, and Matthew Costello who all backed the game and all did advertising via social media on our behalf.
- Robert Hirschboeck, who is honestly one of the nicest guys in the world and one of the biggest fans and supporters of The 7th Guest franchise. It wouldn't be the same without his involvement.
- The folks at Big Finish Games, the force behind the Tex Murphy series, for posting about us in their private supporter Facebook group and on their game Steam page.
- Game Boomers for their consistent following of our project over the years.
- Nerdy But Flirty, an amazing group of people overall and probably some of the most passionate gamers you will ever meet.
- Game news outlets including Eurogamer, PC Gamer, and countless international and domestic gaming blogs who have covered our project during the Kickstarter campaign.
- A shout out to Meg Turney who tweeted about us several times and is a HUGE fan of T7G.
- Our friends, family, and anyone else who were absorbed into or impacted by the insanity of the time during the campaign.
- Once again, to all of the fans, this game is for you, and YOU made it possible.
There have been some recent issues with the website which are being sorted out. The majority of that work has been done but, there are still a couple of minor cleanup items.
So What's Next?
We've been doing quite a bit behind the scenes since the campaign ended. We have planned and created some really cool animations outside of the normal game paths and puzzles, after all, what good is the Stauf Mansion without a few surprises here or there? No, we aren't saying any more than that regarding those, after all, we can't spoil Mr. Stauf's fun.
We are also working on finishing up the programming for the last several puzzles, doing any necessary 3D cleanup in the Stauf Mansion, and working on the other in-game locations. Obviously we are also planning out the scheduling and locations for the FMV work and audio recordings. So, there is a good chunk of work ahead of us.
Lastly, we are evaluating the higher-level stretch goals to see which ones we might be able to achieve. The team really wants to see the Stauf mansion on Oculus and on some other platforms. After all, EVERYONE should have access to our game, no matter where they are and what platform they play on. We will determine if we can reach those goals as we go and you will be the first to know when we decide.
So that is it for now. We are again truly thankful for all of your support and help, and will continue to keep you updated on our progress. More will be coming soon!
-The 13th Doll Team

Malaysia said Monday its export activity rebounded 3.5 percent in January from a dip a month earlier as demand from neighbours and the giant Chinese market picked up.
January exports were valued at 56.99 billion ringgit ($18.37 billion), up 3.5 percent year-on-year, the trade ministry said in a statement. Imports rose 16 percent to 53.72 billion ringgit.
Shipments to China rose 8.6 percent year-on-year, driven by demand for Malaysian crude oil, rubber, and electronic and chemical products, the ministry said.
Malaysia, Southeast Asia's third-largest economy, relies heavily on exports of its abundant natural resources but also some manufactured goods.
Exports to other Southeast Asian countries -- especially electronics and refined petroleum products -- jumped 29.3 percent and accounted for a third of Malaysia's total shipments abroad.
Exports to the United States rose 8.6 percent, while those to Japan fell 14.1 percent.
Shipments had unexpectedly slipped 5.8 percent in December on weaker demand in China and the US. Full-year exports for 2012 grew only 0.6 percent compared to the previous year.
Analysts have forecast exports to rebound this year as the global economy recovers from the debt crisis Europe, stagnant US growth, and a growth slowdown in China.
Malaysia's economy grew a faster-than-expected 6.4 percent in the fourth quarter, its best showing in more than two years, and expanded 5.6 percent for full-year 2012.
The expansion, which exceeded an earlier government forecast of 5.0 percent, has been credited largely to steady domestic demand.
The government has been pumping money into investment drives and cash handouts to boost the economy ahead of elections due by June.


text: We have a Honeywell wireless thermostat and central heating controller. It is set to maintain a temperature at 21c between 8 and 10, and then between 4 and 10. In the other periods, it is set to maintain 5c. Strangely the heating comes on intermittently during the 5c periods when the temperature is way above this. The thermostat seems to read correct temperatures. Any ideas ? Its a combi boiler, so nothing to do with hot water

Source: [1]
Copper is a Professor Emeritus of Paleobiology at the Laurentian University Earth Sciences department [2].
Copper was an Allied Expert to the now-defunct Natural Resources Stewardship Project (NRSP) [3], and the organization described Copper as an "expert on pre-historic global climate patterns." [3]
Stance on Climate Change
"We, the undersigned scientists, maintain that the case for alarm regarding climate change is grossly overstated. Surface temperature changes over the past century have been episodic and modest and there has been no net global warming for over a decade now. After controlling for population growth and property values, there has been no increase in damages from severe weather-related events.The computer models forecasting rapid temperature change abjectly fail to explain recent climate behavior." [2]
Key Quotes
[Pending further investigation.]
Key Deeds
March 30, 2009
Copper's signature is displayed [4] alongside a full-page ad funded by the CATO institute [5] that appeared [6] in numerous newspapers including the Washington Post, the New York Times and the Chicago Tribune in 2009.
The advertisement criticizes President Obama's declaration that "few challenges facing America and the world are more urgent than combating climate change," stating that "with all due respect Mr. President, that is not true."
The ad claims "there has been no net global warming for over a decade," and that the dangers of global warming are "grossly overstated." [2]
March, 2008
Signed the 2008 Manhattan Declaration on Climate Change [7], a document brought forth [8] for consideration at the end of the Heartland Institute's [9] 2008 International Conference on Climate change [10].
Created by the International Climate Science Coalition (ICSC) [11]—a group of climate skeptics directed by Tom Harris [12]—the declaration concludes that "attempts by governments to legislate costly regulations on industry and individual citizens to encourage CO2 reduction will slow development while having no appreciable impact on the future trajectory of global climate change."
April 6, 2006
Copper was a signatory of the 2006 open letter [13] to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, "Open Kyoto to debate," which disputed the existence of anthropogenic (man-made) global warming (AGW) while urging inaction on climate policy.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- Operators of some nonprofit clinics that spay and neuter animals say new rules being considered by a state board could cause them to close their doors.
Reports suggest that the proposed rules are under consideration by the Alabama State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners.
If approved, the rules would prohibit non-veterinarians from hiring veterinarians and would prohibit non-veterinarians, including non-profit groups, from owning veterinarian equipment.
Mark Nelson, executive director of Alabama Spay/Neuter in Irondale, says the rules would make it difficult for his clinic to stay open.
The Alabama State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners will hold a public hearing on the rules Oct. 10.
The proposed rules indicate the board wants to make sure veterinarians are making all decisions that could affect animals.

Why can't we have juicy sex scandals here in Seattle? Do we even have them in Seattle? Can anyone recall a single Seattle sex scandal?
San Francisco is currently having two sex scandals—two!—in a single news cycle! Not fair! The owners of a specialty porn website, Kink.com, recently purchased a historic building in San Francisco's Mission District and panties are bunchin'.
Kink.com, which distributes its videos on X-rated Web sites with names such as Hogtied and Men in Pain, bought the old State Armory in the Mission District for $14.5 million, saying the vacant building's dark Moorish architecture would make a perfect backdrop for fetish films.
"The basements in particular have a creepy, dungeony feel that is quite appropriate," said Kink.com founder Peter Acworth…
Although city planners said the studio meets zoning requirements, residents and civic leaders have reservations about allowing people to be tied up, spanked and poked with mechanical implements in the working-class neighborhood.
Hilarious Detail #1: Gavin Newsom, as the mayor of San Francisco, is in the awkward position of having to express his "concern" about the morality of Kink.com at the same time that his affair with his campaign manager's wife is making headlines all over the world. Take it away, Mr. Mayor…
"While not wanting to be prudish, the fact that kink.com will be located in the proximity to a number of schools gives us pause."
The mayor is planning to hold hearings. Good luck with that, Gavin.
Hilarious Detail #2: The State Armory, "erected in 1912, empty since 1970 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978," was sold to Kink.com "after low-income housing advocates killed proposals to develop the Armory into offices or apartments." No apartments, just BDSM film shoots—good work, low income housing advocates!
Hilarious Detail #3: The Mission Merchants Association, according to its president, is worried that Kink.com is going to "attract perverts to the area." Uh, yeah. Wouldn't want to attract perverts to San Francisco. Heavens.
Kink.com, for the record, makes the best and most ethical straight BDSM porn out there, and they use only BDSM players and real people in their shoots. From their website…
BDSM is about respect and trust. When you watch a Kink.com movie, you are watching real BDSM-loving people play in this context. We at Kink.com pride ourselves in the authentic reproduction of fetish activities enjoyed by those in the BDSM lifestyle. Kink.com [hosts] Kink-community building events, BDSM educational seminars, fundraisers for sex-positive charities, and kink-outreach programs.
Some of there stuff is hardcore, but some BDSMers are hardcore—and why shouldn't their porn be too? And I fully expect that any BDSM film company that can afford to drop 14.5 million on this…
…can afford to pay their models a decent amount of money too.

Hereford native and West Texas A&M University graduate Stan Sigman was in Amarillo Thursday evening to speak at the WTAMU Foundation's annual meeting.
Stan Sigman is president and chief executive officer of Cingular Wireless, the nation's leading wireless carrier. He is responsible for all aspects of the company's operations.
Sigman earned a bachelor's degree in business administration from West Texas State University in Canyon in 1970. Born in Lubbock, Sigman calls Hereford his hometown.
He helped start SBC Communications' wireless business in the mid-1980s, managed its expansion into one of the largest wireless businesses in the nation, and directed its integration into BellSouth's wireless group to form Cingular in 2001.
He has served as group president and chief operating officer for SBC.
Sigman began his career with Southwestern Bell Telephone as a stockman in Hereford in 1965.
Sigman spoke about how West Texas values have helped him build a wireless company. He also gave listeners an idea of how wireless communication began.
The companies have changed, but the industry has remained the same, he said. There are now four wireless companies, Cingular being the largest.
"The grounding I received here in West Texas in common sense and plain speaking has been a great help in keeping complex business understandable and manageable," Sigman said, in his address to the more than 200 in attendance at the Amarillo Country Club. "Another invaluable aspect of the culture of the West Texas region comes from the basic values handed down to us."
Hard work, he said. Let your word and handshake be your bond. Never seek or settle for second best and take care of people because they will take care of you.
"These are the values I grew up with and they are my values now," Sigman said. "They have served me well. They have served the companies I've helped build well. Especially through a generation of constant change."
Everything about the wireless industry, from its beginning, required new thinking, he said.
"The values of West Texas were, and are, a welcome lighthouse and guide," Sigman said. "So, when I say that everything I really needed to know about business I learned in West Texas, I really mean it."
One of the primary things Sigman said he learned was that someone had to be in charge to get things done. He also learned that the person in charge needed to get out into where the company did business, not just sit in the office.
The foundation was also honoring its 2006 Pinnacle Award Recipient.
Caroline Chamblin, executive director of the WTAMU Foundation, said each year the foundation brings in a speaker of significance and honors its pinnacle award winners.
This year's winners were Bill and Joyce Attebury, Chamblin said. In 2005 and 2006, they increased their commitment to the university by providing support to fund the honors program at WTAMU.
Without their support, she said, the program and students would not be where they are today.

Moving Wallpaper (2008–2009)
Episode List
Season 2
27 Feb. 2009Episode #2.1

6 Mar. 2009Episode #2.2
Jonathan goes behind his boss Nancy's back in an effort to sell the show to a group of American executives.
13 Mar. 2009Episode #2.3
Jonathan dreams up a spectacular stunt for the show's leading man, Alan Dale, to perform, but, with only hours to go before filming, he antagonizes Alan, who refuses to cooperate.
20 Mar. 2009Episode #2.4
Jonathan brings in a supposedly hot shot writer called George who is a pre-op transsexual. The staff writers feel usurped and go on strike. Jonathan's lack of tactfulness towards George's situation means that soon he has no writers at all.
27 Mar. 2009Episode #2.5
Somewhat the worse for drink Jonathan calls a press preview when there is nothing to preview so the staff work through the night, exposing many revelations such as Carl's broken home, Mel's grieving for her dead pet dog and Jonathan's cowardice.
3 Apr. 2009Episode #2.6
The wrap party for the finished pilot of zombie drama 'Renaissance' has its ups and downs, the biggest 'down' being Nancy's decision to scrap the whole series. However the staff, led by the usually cowardly Jonathan, pull together and have the last laugh when, cheered on by Alan Dale and Kelly Brook, they illegally post it on the ITV website, thus ensuring maximum exposure.

Hypermedia applications can be defined as collections of interactive and multimedia documents that are organized as a hypertext net. The development of hypermedia applications poses specific problems, such as the need for modeling sophisticated navigational structures, interactive behaviors, and harmonic presentations involving the synchronization of contents. Moreover, the increasing popularity of Internet based systems has put stress on the lack of mechanisms to formally specify security policies when designing hypermedia applications. Traditional design models and methodologies are not suitable for hypermedia applications and the up-to-now developed hypermedia oriented models do not cover the whole set of design needs. In this context, we present Labyrinth, a hypermedia oriented model providing formal elements to describe the static structure and dynamic behavior of this kind of nonlinear, multisensory, and interactive applications

My T-410 overheats while on the dock when performing intensive tasks, such as rendering video. Is there a piece of hardware I can purchase that will actively cool the bottom of the dock? Something more powerful than just a stand with fans built into it (maybe something with some kind of refrigerant looping around inside it).
If you have an external graphics card, ensure your using the onboard intel one if you don't need the graphics power. The PCI Express ones can get really warm. If your doing video stuff, depending on the encoder, you might not need the GPU, just the CPU.
Also, we have had two T410s's recently (based on the same components) that have had similar problems. The tech that came said there wasn't much thermal paste, but when I called Lenovo and mentioned heat issues, they quickly routed the ticket to another group, which sent out the tech with a new motherboard and stuff.. (although we have onsite support)
Something like this: xpc gear notebookcooler

Sometimes the girl will masturbate first, like the one on a couch in a red bustier, gloves and boots who turns her attentions to a guy standing alongside. Later, blonde cutie Tiffany's cool-but-intense scene will rouse all but the most jaded.
Director Frank Thring frames interesting shots, watching a ripe young boob bounce against a guy's thigh or framing a chin-and-balls up shot against a deepening blue sky. Well-done editing keeps the eye interested, and music does the same for the ear.

Something Wicked This Way Come!

It's almost here,the Xbox 360 is on the way,and everybody is gearing up for the craziness.Alot of stores will be doing midnite openings and there will be t.v. specials for it,but I think there is just alittle bit to much hype on the 360.Don't get me wrong,the 360 is a nice system,but to me its two steps away from a pc.Another thing about it are the games,the good ones don't come out until latter and the rest you already played before.On a liter note,I LOVE MY PSP.

This has been happening intermittently as we have grown the number of users in a group.
Using the User Admin to add a user to a group appears to timeout the result is that a large number of member of that group loose their assignment to the group.
Temporary workaround
Import an SQL file with all the user to group assignments.
('3', 'user', 2)
This works fine so the database is not the error its something within the update code in UAM.
There are only 7 groups used for access to portected pages for each group 'Strata Condo Owners' now one Strata has 503 owners +dozen realtor accounts a small subset has access to another group for pages accessible only by Strata Council. The smaller strata groups have max 100 users and have no problem.
Strata Group
abc abcuser 530
abccouncil 8
