How much does the dividend go up when it get's announced this month? Will it be $ 3.00?
Sentiment: Buy
That raises it .04 cents per quarter
They raised it 3 cents last year. I would guess at least that but 4 to 5 cents would put it in the $2.92 to $3.00 range. I think they go with one of those numbers. They have really done a lot better job of managing the land portfolio and getting rid of none core assets plus they are on track to increase reserves every year. Based on how operations are going, anything less than $3.00 per year would make them cheap skates. On all their calls they have been saying they are shareholder friendly and want to support a competitive dividend.
ConocoPhillips (COP) today announced that its board of directors has raised the company's quarterly dividend to 73 cents per share, an increase of 5.8 percent.
I do believe they will increase it this time. How much? I don't have a clue.
If they bump the dividend to $3 it would be about an 8% rise. Not unreasonable. I don't know if they raise it or not. I've owned COP for years. Dripping my dividends until retirement down the road. COP has been a very nice holding for me.
10% increase at most

Not a day goes by without me saying this several times: "it's all about songs!" When people buy music they buy songs. Although it may look like they are selecting an artist, it's the songs that move consumers to buy. If you don't believe this, how do you explain when albums by famous artist fail to sell? They surely did not forget how to sing. Lack of good songs is generally the reason.
If there is something the music industry is going to need in these uncertain times, it's good songwriters and good songs. Especially now that we are back to sell singles, we are going to need ten good songs in each album.
We know that, for a number of reasons, Latino consumers have not been able to keep up with songs purchasing in the internet to this day, compared with the mainstream market. But sooner rather than later, that is going to change. So now is the time to recognize the fact that it's all about the songs. And if Latino record labels, artists, producers, A&R executives and managers do not value songwriting, they are bound for big disappointments.
Songwriters are the backbone of the record industry. Underappreciated and undervalued, always in the shadow of the big stars that are mass-marketed by the industry, they are the ones who can save the business. Just ask radio stations or radio programmers what they think about it: they will unanimously tell you, it's all about the songs!
Yes, the performers, arrangements, musicians, producers, engineers and all others in the production chain are important. But all that, without a good song, will not make an album sell. Yet the opposite can happen: a good song could eventually sell without some of the elements mentioned above.
Songwriters and songs are the first link in the process of creating an album. The effective date to go to the studio is when the repertoire is defined and agreed upon, not when the release date says so. So many times in the Latin market we have seen albums been recorded without the right songs, or the right A&R work, pressured by deadlines or quarter releases. Now, more than ever, recording projects should have a very well thought-out A&R work.
Lately, we are witnessing a dangerous trend among some performers: they're asking songwriters for a piece of their songs, or a co-writers percentage to select a song to be recorded. This is not only a sign of the economic hardship experienced by all sectors of the music business, but also a lapse in ethics not seen before in the Latin music industry. If it's not stopped immediately by the labels, this trend will lead artist to record only songs obtained by these coercive methods, as opposed to the best ones, with the logical consequence that albums will be released to the market with one or two good songs. The result? Lack of physical product sales on the few remaining retail stores, and poor singles sales through the internet retailers.
So we, as Independent Music Publishers, have the responsibility of helping our songwriters to navigate the perilous waters of the economic recession with dignity and respect. The whole spectrum of the industry has to realize …It's the songs, stupid!

Forum > Mustang Discussions
how much to restore my 68 mustang coupe
I have a 1968 mustang coupe with a straight body and a 351 Cleveland that needs to be rebuilt. I have already got a bunch of stuff for it including: front and back seats, new floor panels, new trunk panels, and a 16 gallon gas tank for about $1100. I wanna know how much it will cost for the engine rebuild, wiring, and a transmission to fit it. And to get all the engine stuff and wiring to be put in
Joe AZ 2 PA:
Contact a couple of good shops in your area and tell them exactly what your plans are for the car after the rebuild. Cost will depend on what your goals are as for performance and appearance. Same with the type of transmission. They need to know if you're looking for a driver, cruiser, drag racer, road course runner, or show car. You may end up with a couple of shops doing the work since some the do restoration may not do the motor and tranmissions in house and send that type of work out. If they do you loose control on cost and turnaround time. One stop shop is the way to go if you find a good one. Ask around and see who the locals use. Ask them how they rated their experience with that shop and why the would go back. Make a couple of visits to the shop or shops and check out how they work. If its a mess and cluttered with unfinished projects walk away. See if you can find out how many car they have in the shop at one time. Good luck. . . . 8)
Engine rebuild will depend upon whether or not you keep it essentially stock and what is necessary. Figure 2K on the low end if you do none of the work. High end is limited only by your wallet and imagination. Transmissions are similar, though less expensive. Stock rebuilds are under 750.00 and performance transmissions run 1500-6500.00. Paint and bodywork are far more expensive than basic mechanical work. Good luck

In vitro tests have been developed for the diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) infection. The objective was to analyse latent TB infection in drug and alcohol abusers through two interferon-γ techniques. One hundred and thirty-nine patients were admitted between February 2006 and May 2007. Mean age was 39·8 years [31% HIV positive]. The enzyme immunoassay (EIA) and enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) interferon-γ assays were positive in 34% of patients with an agreement of 83% (κ=0·63). Tuberculin skin test (TST) was positive in 29% of patients and the agreement of TST with EIA and ELISPOT interferon-γ assays was 85% (κ=0·62) and 83% (κ=0·57), respectively. Almost 50% of patients with history of TB had a positive in vitro test. In conclusion, we observed a high prevalence of latent TB and good agreement between the new in vitro tests that otherwise may continue to be positive long after developing TB disease.

I've been trying to come up with some sort of impassioned response to Miami hiring Mark Richt.
About how he is going to bring the swag back. About how this is the grand slam, savage hire we have been waiting for.
The truth is, I can't get there. I remember being super excited for Randy Shannon and again for Al Golden after their introductory press conferences, and we all know how that turned out.
So I am a bit more reserved this time around.
But, that doesn't mean that I'm not positive about it. In fact, this is the most positive I have been in a long time.
This is a great hire. In fact, it is hard to find a more solid collegiate football coach than Richt. I would even call it a home run.
Georgia got sick of winning 10 games a year for 15 years or, frustrated with a seeming inability to win their weakened division for the past 3 seasons…or maybe even just bored with being married to the same guy for so long. They made a move to replace Richt with a young hotshot, and Miami benefited. One man's trash can be another man's treasure.
Truth be told, when it was first reported that Richt was a candidate, I was not happy.
First of all, I can't stand the Bible thumper crap.
Second of all, I saw a man who was burnt out and seeing diminishing returns. The fans at Georgia had a point…how, in the increasingly crappy SEC East, had the guy failed to make the SEC Championship game for 3 straight years?
And here's a stone cold fact: over the past 7 seasons, Richt's record against top ranked teams wasn't just bad, it was borderline Al Golden-esque.
So, being the researcher I am, I did some digging.
I remember the 2007 Dawgs as the best team in the country. They didn't win the SEC. They didn't go undefeated. But they were the best team in a wacky season that featured long runs for Boston College, Kansas and USF in the Top 5, and LSU winning the national championship with 2 losses.
After that season, Richt seemed to take a step back. He stopped calling plays, delegating the duties to Mike Bobo. He still had good teams, and he developed Aaron Murray into one of the most productive SEC quarterbacks of all time.
In fact, Murray lead the Dawgs within one tipped pass of the SEC Title in 2012, which would have locked up a date with Notre Dame for the national title, a game every person on this planet knows Georgia would have won in a rout.
Another thing that stood out: almost every single year, Georgia lost a major contributor to injury. Todd Gurley, Nick Chubb, Keith Marshall…pretty much every year there was someone. The year where everyone stayed healthy? The aforementioned 2012.
So what does all this mean?
Well, the injuries thing means that Richt seemed to get extraordinarily unlucky at Georgia.
Now, I know there are some who would say that a real man makes his own luck, or some corny crap like that from a frat dude's Facebook profile.
But we all know that is bullshit. Every team in college football has 2 or 3 key players that have a disproportionate effect on the season.
For instance, a QB like Brad Kaaya. Or a running back like Duke Johnson. Or a linebacker like Sean Spence of Denzel Perryman. We have seen firsthand what happens when guys like that get hurt. Now imagine that happening every single year. You get the point.
So, we come back to my initial concern: the motivation.
Why would a guy who took a step back into a CEO role be the guy we are looking for?
This is Miami. I want an angry, testy, chip-on-their shoulder up and comer, godammit. More Jimmy Johnson, less Larry Coker.
Well, here's where Richt won me over. In his farewell press conference at Georgia, he specifically talked about wanting to be hands on and calling plays again.
This man wants back in the trenches. He wants to get his hands dirty. He has regret. He has fire in his belly…otherwise known as a chip on his shoulder.
People forget some things about Mark Richt.
For instance, he coached 2 players to Heisman Trophies at FSU: Charlie Ward and Chris Weinke. Hard to find two guys more different in their skillset, but he made both of them in to the best player in the country.
Players, not plays. That's what Al Golden promised, and it's what Mark Richt delivers.
Back before he lost whatever power struggle he lost at Georgia and abdicated his play calling role, he used to run a fast paced, smash-mouth , Pro-Style offense.
Mark Richt's best Georgia teams played attacking, fast, physical defense. They took safeties and made them linebackers (Thomas Davis and Alex Ogletree come to mind…both still play on Sundays).
They took linebackers and made them pass rushers.
Sound familiar? That's what all the best 'Canes teams were built on.
If that's the guy we just hired, and he brings in the type of staff he's shown himself capable of, and his message continues to resonate with recruits, and he hits the ground running with a Top 5 quarterback and a ton of talent returning off an 8/9 win team, then maybe he is the grand slam we were looking for after all.
Maybe he's Butch Davis, but better on the X's and O's side. I guess we won't know until we see the product on the field, and that is a long off-season away.
But I do know this. Positive Dan is back, after a 2 year hiatus.
I won't miss the constant grumbling during games, or being afraid of blowing a 21 point lead in the 4th quarter against Virginia or Pitt.
I won't miss National Signing Day being a massive disappointment every year.
I won't miss getting embarrassed 5 times a season.
I CERTAINLY won't miss watching us get beat the same way week after week after week.
Our new floor is Dabo Swinney's Clemson or Mack Brown's Texas…a team loaded with pros that wins between 9-11 games per year and, every few years with the right QB, makes a run at a title.
That's a hell of a floor, and the ceiling is much higher.
Mark Richt, with something left to prove?
Sign me up.

I thought I would make a separate post about the image errors I have been getting in Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7. In IE 6, when one of the thumbnails is clicked once, then the image is closed, and then the same thumbnail is clicked, the images are duplicated - with one on top of the other. This only seems to happen in IE6 and only when the same image is selected twice before refreshing the page.
In IE7, two images always show up when a thumbnail is clicked. The first image shows up fine and is centered. However, it tries to show another copy of the same image directly below the first one...with the second one being cut off. Other than that this plugin is great!

A woman raped behind the Silver Bullet Lounge in January is dead, and it could mean new charges for two men already suspected in the case.
Sherry Murphy was in a coma for nine months before she died at 3 o'clock this morning.
She was brutally assaulted and raped outside the Silver Bullet Lounge on January 9, 2006.
But she was also suffering from advanced liver disease, so investigators are waiting for autopsy results.
Michael Christian clay and Carl Lamont Jones were both indicted in February for aggravated sexual battery in Murphy's case.
If the autopsy shows the assault killed her, the charges will be upgraded to murder.
Clay is also in prison suspected in four other rapes: three in 2000 and one in 2003.
He was also charged with beating and robbing the owner of a dry cleaner's.
Carl Jones was arrested back in 2003 for a murder that year. However, he was acquitted on those charges.
Both men are still in jail. Jones was granted bond last night, but the sheriff's department put that on hold with the new developments.
Investigators hope to have the autopsy results tomorrow, so they can finally move forward with the case.

"Ronneby 1997-2002" Ronneby by Paragon42
Ronneby Travel Guide: 3 reviews and 1 photos
1997 I moved to Ronneby in the heart of the garden of Sweden (Blekinge). I studied software engineering between 1997 and 2001 and had a blast. I joined up as a rookie for the "sexmasteri" (an organisation within the student union that arranges parties throughout the year and organizes the arrival for the new students ("nollning"/initiations). There I had the exclusive title "Vodka-master" :-)
I also got tricked to join the Blekinge Karspex (the theater section) which I am still part of (in a distant way). I had a couple of lead roles, wrote one short play with a friend, had a lot of solo songs throughout the year and was even Lucia one year (that didn't go so well... but the audience had fun and so did we and that is important to me.)
In 1999 I joined the student union board and ended up in the research, faculty and hiring board at the university. I also became a supplemental member of the board of Studentbolaget. All this has been a very good learning experience for me and I hope I was able to contribute to improve my university.
I also got elected into Faust (a so called quasi-organisation) with members currently (2003) in Gothenburg, Boras, Stockholm, Halmstad, Karlskrona/Ronneby and Jonkoping). We are a couple of exiles around the world as well (Santa Fe, Los Angeles (thats me), Belgium and Germany). In this noble society I further developed my appreciation for the swedish beverage called Punsch (for example Carlshamn FlaggPunsch.)
- Pros:Small, lots of friends, Karen :-), nollning, Flumride, kebabpizza
- Cons:Small, many friends have left, Karen was on fire. It is far away from me
- In a nutshell:Nice place if you get to know some good people :-)

I call the 24 hour maintenance hotline for an emergency maintenance schedule for the following afternoon (Thursday), which I had to get off work early for. Waited for someone to come, but no one showed up! Had to reschedule for another appointment in the afternoon again for the day after (Friday).
Maintenance comes to my unit while I was at work, and lets me know that ceiling was dry, but didn't know what the odor was. And all he did was repaint the stains. If the smell was still there, then I would have to call for another appointment. I left the patio door open with a fan blowing all night, hoping the smell would dissipate; which it did not.
Next day (Saturday), I call front office and complain, they ask me to call the maintenance hotline because they cannot place service orders. Personnel does not show up until the afternoon, and say they are unable to do any major work so will have to wait until Tuesday. Office manager promises to have someone come by Monday instead.
I come back from work on Monday, nothing was done to the apartment. So I call Tuesday and speak with the sales manager who said he was in the unit on Monday, and couldn't smell anything so we set an appointment for Wednesday to meet him at the unit.
He comes on Wednesday, and says that they will investigate into the cause of the stain, and will have it fixed by Thursday. As I had already taken 2 half days from work, I allowed them to do work in the unit without my presence. They called Thursday and said everything was fixed.
This past Friday, after some major downpour, I come back from work to see that the ceiling is leaking water on my entertainment center. I call maintenance right away, and he comes to check the leak and makes two hole and says he will pick up a dehumidifier for it to run through the night. And they will call a roofer for Saturday, which they did and found the reason why water was getting through the roof. Maintenance guy tells me that they will come Monday to patch up the 2 holes he made, when he came to check on Friday afternoon.
Problem is, the whole ceiling has major water stains, and are "softened" by the water damage which is felt when pressing it. I keep telling them they have to gut the ceiling because this is some major problem, that is not solved simply by repainting.
These past 3 weeks I've been breathing air that is contaminated by mildew, and am coughing, sneezing and having sinus.
I have asked for a new unit, but was told there were no availability.
Under California rental laws, they have breached the lease agreement since the above makes the unit unlivable.
BRE Property management is trying to weasel their way out of major repairs by covering the evidence and telling me that everything is fixed, when it obviously nothing has been repaired after so many visits.
I have been extremely patient with them, and given them enough time to solve the problem. But they are just trying to cut corners. I am done with them.

Sponsoring a pig for slaughter?!?!
Over a year ago
Yea I just heard about this on the news and don't know what to think of it. You always hear of rescues where you can help sponsor animals and people who love animals are willing to donate money for the animals to live their lives. Well now there is a farm in Ontario, Canada who has ran out of funds to feed her Large Black Pigs (they also own cattle, chicken, turkeys and ducks) etc so is asking for money from people to help feed them until they are slaughtered and then they in turn get some meat from it!
Generally I don't like this idea at all maybe she won't get as much money as she needs and some animal rescue can step in and buy them.
here is the farms web site:
As you can see it is a smaller family run farm and the animals do live outside with each other and get good food etc. So it is better than factory farms etc but the fact that they are still slaughtered in the end is still wrong!

Yeah my school does somehting like this but it's a little different they raise a pig & I guess money comes from students & the FFA teacher then when he gets big a plump they have a FFA pig roast & it's like 6 dollars for adult & free for kids.. something like that! But they just had one I think the last week of July or maybe it's coming up not sure but a couple years ago the boy roasted a pig at his house on my road.. & they even name the pig when it's alive!You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

"There not going to slaughter every pig they own that would be counter productive from the Rare heritage breed status. Just the young ones."
Oh, you know, it's fine as long as people are just killing infants.
If people pay her just to let them eat before she kills them, she'll have the means to continue breeding and just put more pigs through the same cycle. If she can't even feed them, what do you think that means for the conditions that they are kept in? And do you think it's really worth it to pay for the slaughter of an animal just so more can be slaughtered?
Yes, everyone's jumping out saying "but if you don't feed them, they'll starve!" Look at the LONG-TERM consequences – if they get what they want, they'll keep killing.
I think it's much better to let them go out of business entirely.You must be logged in to reply to this topic.

The need for alternative energy sources may lead to a "bumper season" for Wiregrass farmers.
Tuesday, speakers at the Coffee County Peanut Conference in New Brockton talked about higher prices for crops.
Nationwide there's an increase in acreage for corn, soybeans and peanuts.
The high oil content in peanuts is providing high yields in bio-diesel fuel making.
Alabama Peanut Growers Association president Carl Sanders says the downside is skyrocketing expenses.
"Alternative energy is changing the face of crops. Corn can be made into ethanol, and soybeans are being used for bio-diesel... in fact you can take lower quality peanuts and make bio-diesel out of," said Sanders.
Sanders hopes congress will come up with a 2008 farm bill.
Commodity pricing differences between democrats and republicans have the measure stalled on Capitol Hill.

Steve Freeman on What's Wrong with Most TDD Implementations and Building on SOLID Foundations
At the Agile Singapore conference last year Steve Freeman spoke about the way TDD has been misinterpreted and frequently misapplied in many adoptions and how the SOLID architectural principles are still important, perhaps more important now than in the past.

This post describes the minimum viable architecture for developing minimum viable product. It includes the architecture specification in different phases of startup.
Death by Planning in Agile Adoption
Management can get the feeling of losing control when their enterprise adopts agile and starts deploying self-organizing teams. Procedures, review boards and consultation bodies can become superfluous when switching to an agile approach, but they may not realize that, says Marcel Heijmans. Trying to regain control with additional planning can make things worse, causing "death by planning".
Applying Use Cases in Agile: Use Case 2.0, Slicing and Laminating
To incrementally develop and deliver products using agile software development, requirements are gathered and organized into a product backlog. A requirement technique that is used in agile software development is use cases. Some techniques to apply use cases for managing product requirements in agile are use case 2.0, slicing and laminating.
Implementing Hexagonal Architecture using Life Preserver and Spring Framework

Udi Dahan on Throw Away Prototypes
In his recent blog post "Build one to throw away" Udi Dahan is addressing the chicken-and-egg problem software developers often face. On one hand, customers don't exactly like what they want so that they need to closely interact with software engineers. On the other hand, building product-ready solutions for this interaction might lead to high costs.

Forms & Instructions
2016 Re-Charter Application Instructions
Dear Members:
We have all seen the growing Latino population and the impact we are going to have in the future. That impact will not be felt unless we are organized and working together as one. That after all is what LULAC has set out to accomplish and that is what our founding fathers foresaw when they first gathered in Corpus Christi, TX in 1929.
I want to thank you for your dedication and strong commitment to the League. I look forward to working with you on strengthening and sustaining our membership so that we can continue our legacy of accomplishment for the future.
Membership Reminder: Using any other forms other than the enclosed or online forms will delay the re chartering process for your council. All paperwork must be returned in order to process the charter that includes the Annual Charter Agreement. All applications with proper payment are due at the LULAC Membership Office on January 1, 2016. There is a 59-day grace period extended until February 28, 2016.
Be sure to submit all required paperwork and fees to your state and district directors where applicable.
Remember that to be in good standing with the National Office, each council must be in good standing with their state and district offices.
Only new members will receive a lapel pin. All paperwork, membership cards and pins will be sent to the President of each council so that it can be disbursed to each council member.
The Membership Office is headquartered in El Paso, Texas and is available to serve you Monday through Friday from 8 am to 5 pm Mountain Standard Time. Please contact this office if you need any assistance with membership. Our staff is always happy to assist you in realizing LULAC's mission in your community.
Should you have any questions please contact the Director of Membership Services at
221 N. Kansas, Suite 501
El Paso, Texas 79901
LULAC Councils that wish to re-charter must complete all of the steps below in order to keep their council's charter in good standing
- Application for Re Charter/ Contact Information Form: Complete the required information with the name of the person who will be the main contact, this person is usually the council president or treasurer. Also, be sure to include your council's Employer Identification Number (EIN). All LULAC Councils are required to have an EIN also known as your Tax ID Number. New Councils are required to get an EIN through the IRS (see www.lulac.org/ein and the form included at the end of this application). Be sure to submit your EIN to the Membership Office.
- Contact Information Release Form: This form is a contact information release waiver authorizing the LULAC National Office to post contact information on the LULAC website.
- New Member Application:Each new member is required to complete a 2016 Application for New Members. Two members of a neighboring council in good standing may sign to attest to the application. If a local council is not available, two members of the organizing council may sign for the person applying for membership.
- Annual Council Charter Agreement: This agreement is part of the by-laws of the organization that explain the responsibilities and duties of the council, members, and the national organization. Sign and date the document. Keep a copy for your records and return the original to the Membership Office. If the Membership Office does not receive this signed agreement your charter will not be renewed and this application will be returned to you.
- Tax Compliance Checklist: Each chartered LULAC Council is considered by the IRS to be a 501(c)4 nonprofit organization by virtue of LULAC National's group exemption. This checklist will help your council ensure it is in compliance with IRS regulations covering 501(c)4 nonprofit organizations. Complete in full, make a copy, and return to the membership office
- Worksheet and Council Membership Roster: Clearly print or type the name, address city/state and zip code and telephone number with area code. Please note that 10 members are required to maintain a council. Include fax numbers and email addresses. Please list members in alphabetical order if possible. Also, indicate the elected office of each member: Pres, VP, Sec, Treas, Parl, Chap, Sgt at Arms. Also indicate whether Mr. Mrs. Ms. Dr. Rev. or any other relevant title. Also, please do not forget to include your EIN number. Lack of an EIN number will cause your council to not be recognized as tax exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)4 of IRS code.

Wood and Metal Aiden 3-Shelf Console Table
Reviewed by 4 customers
Comments about Wood and Metal Aiden 3-Shelf Console Table:
1st console table was missing the threading for one of the legs 2nd table had a bent frame and the whole unit is tilting. Very frustrating! I have to go exchange it yet again. The quality just isn't there but I love the design.
Comments about Wood and Metal Aiden 3-Shelf Console Table:
I love this shelving unit. It matches the Aiden Bed perfectly. It is sturdy and sleek. As always it was packaged beautifully and easy to put together. Such a great buy.
Comments about Wood and Metal Aiden 3-Shelf Console Table:
I just purchased this product today as I had previously purchased the two shelf version. The item was relatively easy to put together although the hooks were bent on ours causing us some difficulty when adding the middle shelf. I like the storage capacity and the depth of the shelves. I love the industrial look of both items however the quality is somewhat lacking. The metal construction is somewhat flimsy and the casters DO NOT ROLL AT ALL. Luckily for me, I purchased this item on sale. I do not think I would have paid full price for this item.
Comments about Wood and Metal Aiden 3-Shelf Console Table:
I was very excited to get these shelves, although I was pretty disappointed that every store in my immediate area had them on backorder until April but I could order them online (and pay quite a bit more for shipping) immediately. (I was shopping for them early February). Seems to me that the store should offer some sort of drop ship to store option for less cost...

The Wii is officially more than just a gaming sensation.
Nintendo's latest console has captured the hearts, minds and dollars of not
only gaming fans, but also the elderly, vacationers, the health-conscious
and other casual markets.
Despite being released a year later than Microsoft's current
generation console offering, the Nintendo Wii has surpassed the Xbox 360 in
total worldwide hardware sales, according to the latest data from VGchartz.com.
By the week ending August 23, VGchartz gathered that
Nintendo had sold 10.57 million Wii consoles over lifetime, while Microsoft
sold 10.51 million Xbox 360 consoles. In order to eclipse the Xbox 360 in less
than a year since release, the Wii had outsold Microsoft's game system by a
margin of 2.3-to-1 worldwide.
A key factor in Wii's quick pace in catching the Xbox 360
the acceptance of
Nintendo's console in Japan. The Wii sold 3.46 million units in Japan,
while the Xbox 360 sold only 0.43 million in the same region.
While typical sales numbers from the game companies relate
to shipments to retailers rather than sold-to-consumers, VGchartz claims that
it tracks its data based on actual consumer sell-through figures.
The popularity of the Wii, along with the DS handheld, have
helped Nintendo rocket past its competitors. The Wii was outselling the PS3 by
a margin of 6-to-1
in June, helping Nintendo overtake Sony in
market value. In fact, Nintendo's recent success has put it ahead of both
NTT and Honda, making it the fifth largest company
in Japan.
quote: but how long can the sales numbers grow and how actively will people play, if they don't release more good games?
quote: 3. Third party developers switch focus to the Wii. This should greatly improve the quality of games on the system. Just like EA spent the most time making Madden for the 360 work the best, they'll do that next year for the Wii if it continues outselling the 360.
quote: I think the reason for that was that the 360 architecture was easier to program for because Microsoft got out their SDK sooner to developers than the PS3 did. At least that's what I got out of the article.
quote: Yes, but those reviews are done by gamers... The Wii has appeal to those outside the Gaming community (as mentioned in the article). Thus their vote on the Wii games will never be counted, scewing the ratings value for Wii games out of proportion.
quote: Buying the Wii and only having Wii Sports won't help Nintendo
quote: Given that the Wii does have the graphically horsepower of the Xbox360
quote: While typical sales numbers from the game companies relate to shipments to retailers rather than sold-to-consumers, VGchartz claims that it tracks its data based on actual consumer sell-through figures.
quote: the best thing from Italy since Italy.
quote: However, that is still not a basis to prove or disprove that the Wii, 360, or PS3 is the best console. They have different prices, different games, and different high/low selling points.
quote: I bought mine a few months ago, and all it does now is collect dust. I tried at least 20 different games, but Mario Strikers was the only one I found fun, and that was only for about 2 days.
quote: ..., so I'd buy a 360 and Microsoft would lose money on me...
quote: even if only 1/3 of the people who buy a Wii buy any games for it, they still make money.
quote: The next generation of gaming is upon us, and the console wars have begun. NexGen Wars.com has spent countless hours researching sales facts from dozens of sources to track the worldwide sales of the consoles and monitor the next generation of console wars between the Microsoft Xbox 360, the Sony Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii. Remember, these numbers are only estimates, but they are constantly monitored and updated to assure the closest estimates possible for the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and Wii.
quote: The Wii has sold up to date 10.10 million consoles , the Xbox 360 has only sold 10.32 million consoles and the PS3 has sold only 4.11 million consoles .
quote: Between the Week of July 30 and Aug. 5 the Wii only sold 60,000+ game consoles a huge decrease from the 77,000+ consoles that they sold to the week prior.
quote: quote:Between the Week of July 30 and Aug. 5 the Wii only sold 60,000+ game consoles a huge decrease from the 77,000+ consoles that they sold to the week prior.

As direct negotiations resume this week between the Palestinian Authority and the Israeli government, there is a degree of optimism in Washington, though it is hard to say whether that is the result of signs of progress or naivete.
After 17 years of raised expectations followed by failure, from Oslo to Annapolis, some hopeful observers note the relative lack of violence in the region, the improved Palestinian Authority security forces and the pragmatic accomplishments of Prime Minister Salam Fayyad in creating an infrastructure for a Palestinian state. Another positive sign has been the ability of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to move forward on the negotiations front while keeping his right-wing coalition in line, at least until now.
It is especially important now that the international community focus on and address an appalling situation that Israel and world Jewry is all too aware of, namely the continuing captivity of Gilad Shalit, the kidnapped Israeli soldier who just marked his 24th birthday this week, his fifth in Hamas-controlled Gaza.
It is gratifying that the British government this week demanded Shalit's unconditional release, noting that his continued detention is "unjustifiable and unacceptable." Where is the United Nations and the rest of the world in making similar demands to free a soldier whose captors have refused him any contact with the outside world or visits from the International Red Cross?
The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations has launched a website to dramatize Gilad Shalit's plight — http://www.giladgreetings.org — which features a video and song about his situation, background information, links to congressional resolutions and a message from Nobel Peace Laureate Elie Wiesel.
This one soldier's captivity is a painful reminder that the road to Mideast peace is tortuous even if progress can be made with the Palestinian Authority. The reality is that Hamas, which controls Gaza and its 1.5 million inhabitants, remains committed to the destruction of the Jewish state and the Jewish people.
We must do our part to show support for Shalit while demanding the world pressure Hamas for his unconditional release.

Atletico were thwarted by an Espanyol side who have made a strong start to the season under Mexican coach Javier Aguirre, and who have moved up to fifth on the back of the result.
A cagey first-half saw neither side able to muster a shot on target, so it was of little surprise that the goal came through unconventional means.
The goal came in the 54th minute when the ball deflected into the net off the outstretched leg of Atletico goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
The Belgian attempted to keep out a deep cross from Juan Fuentes but the ball bounced off his arm and into the net.
Diego Simeone threw on Arda Turan, Adrian Lopez and Cristian Rodriguez as he chased a leveller and while Diego Costa did hit the back of the net he was a good couple of yards offside.
Despite a late onslaught, it was not to be as Atletico dropped their first points of the season.

I'm trying to speed my woocommerse store up.
So far I've done well. When analyzing the server response time for the various elements, it seems that the admin-ajax.php is taking forever for the server to respond.
After digging, it seems this file is being called 20 times or so per page load. Since all the other elements that are being called in have a fast server response time, it seems the issue is not a hardware one, but rather an issue in the design as to how woocommerce is dealing with this file.
Do you have any suggestions as to what I can do to speed it up? This is the site.

35 Years Ago: Foreigner's 'Double Vision' Album Released
With their self-titled debut album in 1977, Foreigner immediately rose to the ranks of the biggest bands in rock, scoring a Top 20 LP that sold millions while spinning off multiple hit singles. But as quickly as they found success, they had to start worrying about whether they could maintain it with their next album.
Lou Gramm Considering Retirement
Rumors have recently surfaced about the possibility of a Foreigner reunion between Mick Jones and Lou Gramm. However, they were quickly quashed by Gramm. In fact, a new interview with Gramm suggests that the singer is considering retiring, a concept that crosses his mind from time to time.
Lou Gramm Says He May Reunite With Foreigner for Farewell Tour
Legendary Foreigner singer Lou Gramm has not been a part of the band that made him famous in more than a decade, but in a new interview, he says that may be changing. The singer behind all-time rock classics such as 'Hot Blooded,' 'Double Vision' and 'Urgent' says his management has been talking about him re-joining the group for a reunion that would also serve as a farewell tour.
