First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Tales Of The Tempest for DS
Following shortly on the heels of two other "Tales" games.
What features make Tempest unique? For starters, the visuals will be an interesting mix of 2D and 3D as the world map and towns will be 3D while the battle system will stick to the 2D plane. The battles will use the "Linear Motion Battle" system that's appeared in past Tales games and will be controllable through the touchpad. In addition, the game will feature wireless play so several players can co-op their way through the many battles. Also, to make sure that the features of the DS are put to good use, both screens will always be active with one screen showing item lists, skills charts, equipment screens, and other useful bits on information at all times.
In terms of the story, only the lead character has been revealed at the moment. His name is Caius Qualls, and he's a young 15-year-old boy who lives with his foster father in the town of Alelora. During the intro segment of the game, he's driven out of his town when the townsfolk discover that his foster father is a Ricantz (beastman). Caius then goes on a journey to find out more about who his real parents were and unlock the secret of his birth.
The game is currently set for a 2006 release in Japan and as long as the Tales series continues to be met with warm welcome in the west, the game should come to the US as well next year.

http://www.dsrevolution.com/article.php?articleid=811 There ya go. That link has footage of the new Tales DS game in action. And although it is stated that the battle system is the "linear battle system" it looks more like Tales of Symphonia. In fact it looks a little more 3D thatn Tales of Symphonia. Interesting stuff. Check it out.
Woot Tales!Posted: Dec 18, 2005 12:00AM PST by monkeyfart2000
I loved tales of phantasia, which is coming to GBA (Woot!) And I just bought a DS so this will be a game I get right when it comes out!
I'm just a sucker for "Tales" games...Posted: Dec 17, 2005 12:00AM PST by BELOVEDpiracy
Plus, I love portable RPG's. The "Tales" series has always been one of my favourites because of its cutesy-ness, unusual battle system, creative characters, and overall run-of-the-mill RPG cheesiness. I hope it ends up in the states, if not, I'll just have to play the import, that's why I learned the Japanese language after all. XP
yay portable tales!Posted: Dec 17, 2005 12:00AM PST by ridethefader
Now we just need the port of Tales of Phantasia for GBA to get a translation! This is my favourite RPG series (since Shining Force went non-strat, anyway)...
zzz...Posted: Dec 17, 2005 12:00AM PST by RocketShoes
...zzz...Tales games have the lamest stories. That's what drives me away from them. In fact, just about every freakin' RPG lately has had crap for a story. Its gotten really bad. All the stories are pretty much the same. Mario Sunshine had a better story than half of the RPG's lately..
Old School Tales games suckPosted: Dec 16, 2005 12:00AM PST by gopro
Old school Tales games arent that good. I recently played Tales of Destiny 2(like 3 months ago) and damn that game wasnt as good as I expected, maybe if I bought it when it came out on the PSX then maybe it wouldve been good. 2D Tales just isnt good espcecially that battle system and the idiotic AI partners. I love Tales of Symphonia, hopefully Tales of LEgendia will be as good as Symphonia.
Awesome!!Posted: Dec 16, 2005 12:00AM PST by Lordofchaosiori
Lets go Namco! Tales games rock serious butt, If you want to play one of these games but don't own a PSP or PSP you can play Tales Of Symphonia for the GC which is a masterpiece!
What is it with Beastmen?Posted: Dec 16, 2005 12:00AM PST by space gyaos
Is there a law that all RPG's must contain a certain number of Beastmen? I think about the conflict between humans and beastmen all the time, but I feel like overexposure to this theme might desensitize people to the issue.

NHS England and its partners have set out a bold framework within which commissioners will need to work with providers and partners in local government to develop strong, robust and ambitious five year plans to secure sustainable high quality care for all.
This calls for local ambitions to be stretched to focus on outcomes, more integration between providers and commissioners and better integration with social care. These plans must address the financial gap - doing nothing is not an option.
Health Insights are free to attend, CPD accredited, regional one day events where you will hear from the people who are setting the direction and meeting these challenges on the ground. The series aims to diffuse innovation across the country and provide you with the tools and knowledge to apply the second you get back to work.
The Health Insights series will focus on:
Sustainability and Transformation Plans
Digital Roadmaps
The Health Insights events have been instrumental in helping us inform healthcare professionals of the NHS England Open Source Programme, as well as keeping the supplier community updated on the Technology Funding available to Trusts.
Peter Coates, NHS England
I felt it was a good size in that you could put your hand up and actually be heard.
If you've got an interest in health informatics and IT and how it can work in terms of the NHS and patients, it's a very good event to attend.
Nick Clarke, Co-Clinical Lead IT & Innovation
It's been really interesting finding out where we're up to with the technology funding and seeing what's happening in different best practice across different ares of the country and doing some valuable networking.
Alison Dailly, CIO - Leeds Teaching Hospitals
We are excited to be attending the upcoming HIMSS UK event series, which will undoubtedly provide a valuable opportunity to drive forward the transformation of health and social care practices through the adoption of innovative technologies. For Extreme Networks, a robust network solution is critical to these discussions, providing reliable connectivity and better intelligence, resulting in better patient outcomes for healthcare organisations.
Bob Zemke, Director of Healthcare Solutions, Extreme Networks
The Health Insights team have consistently provided excellent regional venues and delivered well attended events. The events are excellent value for money providing the opportunity for us to deliver our message both formally through the speaker platform and informally during the day in the exhibition.

Avago Technologies Ltd. and PLX Technology Inc. announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Avago will acquire PLX, a leader in PCI Express silicon and software connectivity solutions, in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $309 million, or $293 million net of cash and debt acquired. Under the terms of the agreement, which was approved by the Boards of Directors of both companies, a subsidiary of Avago will commence a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of PLX common stock for $6.50 per share in cash. Avago expects to fund the transaction with cash available on its balance sheet.
"The core PLX PCIe silicon business fits very well with the Avago business model and broadens Avago's portfolio serving the enterprise storage and networking end markets," stated Hock Tan, President and Chief Executive Officer of Avago. "Following the closing of the transaction, we are excited to welcome the PLX team to Avago, and we are committed to continue to invest in the PLX PCI Express platform."
"Once closed, this transaction will provide immediate value to our stockholders and offers new growth opportunities for our employees to develop leading-edge solutions for our customers," said David Raun, President and Chief Executive Officer of PLX. "Following the closing of the transaction, we believe the combination with Avago is an excellent match for our leading PCI Express portfolio supporting next generation data center architectures."
The transaction is expected to be immediately accretive to Avago's non-GAAP earnings per share. Avago currently anticipates driving the PLX business model to a level consistent with Avago's long term business model by the end of fiscal year 2015, the first full fiscal year after closing.
Potomac Capital Partners II, L.P., which is the largest stockholder of PLX, certain senior members of the PLX management team and all of the directors of PLX, collectively owning approximately 14.7% of shares outstanding on fully diluted basis have executed a Tender and Support Agreement in support of the transaction. Discovery Group I, LLC, the second largest stockholder of PLX, has informed PLX that it supports the transaction.
The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the tender into the offer by PLX stockholders of shares representing at least a majority of the outstanding shares of PLX common stock on a fully diluted basis, and the receipt of relevant regulatory approvals, including the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act and relevant foreign antitrust laws. It is expected that the transaction will close in the fourth quarter of Avago's fiscal year ending November 3, 2014.

As Tantalus, the upscale casual restaurant a block west of Vidler's earned a loyal following of customers who returned for favorites from the epic-length menu. In March, owners Laurie Kutas and John Rooney decided a decade was enough. They changed the name to Medici House, focused the menu on high-end pastas, meats and pizzas, and trimmed the menu. ¶ Ten months later, Medici House is Tantalus again, right down to the homey fried pork chop dinner with chorizo gravy. If anything, the menu has gotten longer. I counted 147 items before the specials. ¶ My recent meal there convinced me that Medici House's kitchen has an excellent grasp of the basics, delivering above-average dishes that are excellent values. I also got stuck at a lousy table and received clunky service, which sapped my enjoyment of the meal.
The place has two rooms. The dining room is nicer, from what I could tell by peeking through the dark curtains that serve as windbreak inside the front door. Our table was in the other room, more of a tavern setting, with a long bar backed by flat-screen televisions showing football. That was the only table available, though, because the place was packed.
My seat backed up to an emergency exit door facing Main Street. It was too cold to take off my coat. My hands stuck to the table, a piece of classic old furniture whose surface was tacky as moist varnish.
Like to read the menu before ordering? Save time and read Medici House's online before you go. Forty pastas, 35 pizzas and calzones, 32 appetizers, and nary a mention of partridge or pear tree. We pondered and chewed on some crusty bread that wasn't warm but clearly was fresh.
For appetizers, we asked for crab boulettes ($11.95), mussels in cognac sauce ($15.95), prosciutto-wrapped asparagus with goat cheese ($9.75) and a spinach salad with pancetta and poached egg ($11.95).
Pizza comes in three styles: 16-inch New York, 14-inch "neo-Neapolitan" (thinner with some char), and for a lesser price, 8-inch Roman-style flat. We opted for the little flat version with cherries, blue and manchego cheese ($10.50).
Among entrees, Cat picked the country fried pork chop with chorizo gravy ($18.95), a returnee from the Tantalus menu. I asked for shrimp and scallop fra diavolo pasta ($23.95). Our guests had butternut squash ravioli ($17.50) and spaghetti carbonara ($15.50).
Three surprisingly fluffy boulettes (crab fritters) came with corn salad and spicy mayonnaise. The crisp spheres contained plenty of crab. The grilled asparagus had two two-spear bundles atop an arugula salad, cooked right and still al dente, with a satisfying amount of chevre, grape tomatoes and balsamic drizzle.
Mike, who has eaten mussels in Belgium and across Europe, thoroughly enjoyed his shellfish. He applauded the broth, garlicky and smoky with bacon. I thought there was too much cognac.
My spinach salad was a do-it-yourself kit, with bottles of oil and vinegar and a bed of greenery topped with hunks of crispy rendered pancetta, thin-sliced red onion and a warm poached egg. I drizzled, chopped and cut until it was ready to eat, which was not a pretty sight. But the salad was robust and satisfying. The fact it was too vinegary was my fault, not the kitchen's.
The small pizza, which had the thinnest crust I've seen, about an eighth of an inch, was a good size for four to share with other things. It balanced salty pork, aromatic blue cheese and bursts of cherry flavor, a pleasant surprise.
Another was the carbonara entree. It was the lightest carbonara I can recall, welcome when so many chefs seem bent on interpreting the classic egg-bacon-cheese pasta as a death-by-dairy suicide pact.
The squash ravioli were satisfying, the pasta squares still al dente. The filling tasted like butternut even through the veil of cream sauce, which had been perked up with capers.
Cat's pork chop was a guilty pleasure, thickly breaded but not greasy, cloaked in a sauce of loose sausage and cream, over homey mashed potatoes. No wonder the dish returned from the Tantalus menu.
My pasta was cooked well, flavored with a vigorous but balanced sauce of crushed tomato, garlic and wine, with a pleasant chile burn in the background. Two jumbo shrimp and two scallops were fresh and cooked accurately.
At dessert (each $7.50), the red velvet cake was dry and overly chilled, leaving the icing cloying. The crème brûlée had a decent crust and satisfyingly creamy custard but not the vanilla bean grace notes of the best versions.
Our server was friendly but inexperienced. We had to hand him empty appetizer plates as he juggled entrees. Our water glasses went unfilled, as did a request for silverware. Around us, the din as the place filled made it hard to hear my tablemates. There were shortages of teapots, dessert spoons and chocolate cake.
Despite the table, and lack of polished service, we enjoyed ourselves. My dinner at Medici House was a shining example of what great company and good cooking can overcome.

Chelsea lodged a formal complaint with the FA on Wednesday night over the "inappropriate language" they claim Clattenburg used against John Obi Mikel in their 3-2 defeat at Stamford Bridge last weekend. The club have submitted a dossier of evidence which contains accounts given by the players, who allege the 37-year-old official used a term which has been interpreted as racist.
Clattenburg denies the allegation and it is understood that assistant referees Michael McDonough and Simon Long and fourth official Michael Jones also believe he is innocent.
Press Association Sport understands the trio did not hear anything untoward from the referee during the match on their linked headsets and are expected to say as much in any testimony given to the FA.
It is understood that the professional refereeing community as a whole has been deeply upset by the allegation against Clattenburg, who himself is determined to clear his name.
Other well-respected current and ex-referees will offer positive character references for Clattenburg's defence if the County Durham official has to answer any charges from the FA or the police, it is understood.
If the procedure for previous disciplinary cases is followed, Clattenburg is likely to be the last person that the FA interviews as part of its enquiries.
It is expected that the body will firstly look at Chelsea's dossier and then speak to McDonough, Long and Jones before interviewing the man who was in charge of the game.
Chelsea released a statement on Wednesday night confirming they had submitted a complaint over Clattenburg's alleged comments towards Nigeria midfielder Mikel.
The London club dropped a complaint regarding a comment alleged to have been made by Clattenburg to another of their players, thought to be Juan Mata.

The ongoing nuclear power plant disaster in Japan has once again pushed the topic of radiation safety into the public consciousness, while also reminding us that the public continues to doubt government and nuclear industry information on safety and the effects of radiation. Part of this wariness stems from the fact that people cannot detect radiation using their own senses, which creates a dread of the unknown. People are also very aware that the effects of radiation are cumulative and may not appear for many years, so the outcome of a disaster like Fukushima is not easy to predict.

Feeling blue? Well, the UB2020 Dell Latitude E6400 and Latitude
E4300 notebook computers are now optionally available in UB Blue
for a modest charge. So, introduce some cheer into your lives and
order UB2020 Dell notebook computers in UB Blue now! We guarantee
you'll feel better.
We are pleased to announce significant changes to our UB2020 Dell computer offerings, particularly notebook computers. The UB2020 Workstation Standards Committee in collaboration with Dell and UBMicro has reviewed and revised the Dell offerings. The objectives of this process (which was initiated in response to feedback from the University community) have been to improve the flexibility of the offerings – while continuing to meet core UB2020 workstation standards and preserving the very significant discounts achieved through our partnership with Dell. The result is new system configurations at substantially lower prices with numerous options to enable more extensive customization. The new configurations are available for immediate order placement in the UB2020 section of the UBMicro website.
Problems with the installation of Linux on the Dell OptiPlex 760 systems are being investigated. Several units, including Management, CoE, and SENS, are seeing increased Macintosh support requests.
After one year, the workstation standardization project has theoretically saved UB approximately $3 million. The project surpassed its original goal to provide 80% of the university's needs and has met 90% of those needs.
Team discussions continue on best practices for imaging and keeping standards set at an optimum.
Updates to the standard workstations list include the Apple MacBook Air.
New configurations of Dell computers were recently added to the selection of models including a Precision workstation, a Precision laptop, and an Optiplex 755 with a small form factor. Peter Rittner, team leader, stated Dell is working to meet our expectations in getting the products to us.
The UB2020 Workstation Standards Task Force met on March 17, 2008, to discuss deployment of Vista and Office 2007 in the public sites and classrooms. The group concurred with the decision to install Vista in the public sites and centrally scheduled classrooms for Fall 2008.
After several glitches relating to availability and correct imaging through Dell, orders are now being filled by way of UBMicro.
Continuing its work, the Workstation Standardization Team has configured a high end desktop, and will do the same for a high end laptop. The team is planning to develop and make available tools to enable customization of the UB2020 standard images without the need for re-imaging.
The Workstation Standardization project team has met its original charter and is now in the role of the 'acting' Workstation Standards Board. The initial goal is to have standards recommendations for students in time for the start of the 2008 spring semester.
The Workstation Standardization project team leaders provided an overview of the standard hardware and software, the update process, and how the standards were developed.
The first large shipment of over 1000 computers arrived from Dell last month, with an enormous cost savings to UB, the result of months of successful negotiations.
Update on the status of the Dell volume purchase which is a component of the Workstation Standardization project.
Vendor negoations continue with Dell and Hewlett-Packard, offering prices at hundreds of dollars less per unit than UB has paid in the past. The project's objectives are to leverage UB's purchasing power, acquire the best pricing possible and to deploy a standard software image which would be useful for 80% of the workstations on campus.
Vendor meetings are taking place with Dell and Hewlett-Packard to discuss discounts, benefits, and options. The project team is working to select a vendor during this fiscal year because the number of machines in need of being purchased is steadily increasing. Negotiations with Sun and Apple are planned for a later date.
The Hardware and Vendor Negotiations sub-team is arranging meetings with manufacturing representatives to acquire a better understanding of what vendors can offer, and what value-added services can be negotiated as part of the offer. Intersections with other IT Transformation projects are beginning to be identified, such as the utilization of an asset tracking system by both the workstation standardization and the Shared IT Service Desk projects. Information from vendor databases may be automatically integrated as a value added service from vendors.
The project team has created two sub teams to move the project into the implementation phase. The first is a hardware negotiations sub team, which is developing a set of issues to be taken into account when negotiating with vendors, such as 'just-in-time' delivery. The second is a process prototype sub team, which is designing what the pilot program would resemble.
Judy Miller, Assistant Vice-President for Procurement Services, related that she is comfortable with the process described for large purchases and how that will fit into the University Procurement processes.
The team discussed several topics which are key success factors for a potential implementation of the team's recommendations, including equipment refresh cycles, the growth in necessity of laptops and mobile devices, UB's equipment purchasing culture, the quantitative and qualitative values of workstation standardization, and the value of extended manufacturer warranties.
The Workstation Standardization Project Team submitted their final report to the steering committee, completing the initiation and planning phases of the project. The project team is expected to transition to implementation with some immediate action steps.
The team recently completed a final report with recommendations. Distributed IT service organizations will be in place for the implemenation of the recommendations. Potential transformations include: refresh systematically and equitably, de facto hardware standards by platform, leverage buying power, de facto baseline software configuration standards, and pervasive support interfaces.
Workstation Standardization project teams have made steady progress composing recommendations and once all groups are in agreement a report will be written and finalized for early November.
The Workstation Standardization Team three working groups (organization, process and communications; functional requirements and software; and technical standards and hardware) have submitted draft baseline materials: draft definitions and assumptions/premises, draft guiding principles, and needed policies. Two major areas of standardization are being explored: hardware/software combinations for the vast number of campus uses, and an institution- wide refresh cycle of four years.

My name is Tommy Thompson, I'm a computer science lecturer and researcher currently based in the UK. I don't take myself terribly seriously, but treat what I do with the gravity it deserves. I like to do a lot of different things, and this is largely explained below:
- I'm an AI researcher who is interested in using games given their potential for interesting applications and benchmarks.
- I write about interesting AI applications for games both within the games industry as well as in academia on AIandGames.com
- I hang out with a group of awesome people and record our ramblings on the Plus Four To Science! podcast.
- I'm (slowly) making games as part of my own indie dev team: Table Flip Games.
On a more formal and qualified note, I hold a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Strathclyde, a BSc in Computer Science (1st class honours) from Strathclyde (and the University of Iowa) and a MSc (with Distinction) in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Edinburgh. I also carry a teaching qualification – the Postgraduate Certificate of Higher Education – and am a fellow of Higher Education Academy (UK). While the last part might not mean much, it says I'm formally qualified to do what I do for a living.

We hired them to do duct cleaning and by all appearances they unit they have to do this is an effective unit. If it ended there I'd have no real complaint.
But.... when they say they find mold look out.
I knew we had mold which is one reason why I called. my wife has been experiencing severe respiratory symptoms which is the signature of mold infestation.
I was willing to pay anything to get rid of it and they talked a good one, and even sold her a UV/Ozone unit. I about had a heart attack when I saw the cost but then found that Ozone units are about $600 on the web and a decent UV system is about $200, so a grand installed did not seem to excessive.
But....... They did not provide the ozone unit even though they charged us for it and used the cheapest grade UV system available. I am going to dispute Visa over the ozone system for sure.
The one thing that should have made me suspicious was he wanted to charge me $65 to put a pound of freon in my AC unit. I questioned the cost and told me R-22 was expensive. I told him to stay away form the unit and if he put R-22 in my new R-22 free unit he;d have to pay to fix the unit.
Also watch out fro their BS.
The told my wife that mold on the condenser coils would migrate into the HVAC duct system. This is total BS, outside mold cannot get int the seal gas/liquid system and get back into the duct, Does this clown even know how these things work? They are selling HVAC services and he either did not know or is lying to a female he though he could run a line of BS onto.
Advice DO NOT CALL THESE CROOKS. You want it done right find a good AC company that you can trust, or get Sears.

While digging around in my files for some tried-and-true jewelry cleaning methods, I realized that I already had a ton courtesy of Shannan Fales, owner of Junction.
Don't forget to catch up with the vintage toolkit series (clothes, shoes, bags), as some of the tools mentioned below are also useful for your other vintage items!
The first tools you'll want to have at the ready are for determining the material of bangles and other plastic-like costume pieces. Here are Shannan's tips to figure out if you've got a collectible Bakelite piece from the first half of the 20th Century:
- Smell: When Bakelite is heated, it has a super strong smell. Try rubbing it hard with your thumb to heat and take a whiff. It should smell acidic.
- Sound: Tap two Bakelite pieces together. A deep clunking sound rather than the higher pitched clack of acrylic or Lucite plastics signifies Bakelite.
- Hot Pin Test: I like this test the best. Since Bakelite wont melt, take a very very hot pin (be careful!) then touch the pin to the BACK of the item. If it's Bakelite, it won't melt. If it penetrates or melts the plastic then it's not real.
- Formula 409: Not very green, but a popular test. Make sure the item is clean, wet the end of a Q-tip with Formula 409 then touch it to the BACK of the piece. If the Q-tip turns yellow then it's genuine Bakelite.
On metal items, don't forget to look for makers' stamps or material marks. You'll need a strong magnifying glass or a loupe, unless you like squinting.
If you intend to repair or redesign pieces of vintage jewelry, Shannan says to start with these basic jewelry supplies:
Plastics—Bakelite, Lucite, Celluloid and Catalin: Clean with a non-alkali, non-ammoniated cleaner like Earth Wise dish-washing liquid, which is biodegradable. Never use anything that contains alcohol. After it's clean, I like to use a product called Brasso. You can find it at most hardware stores like Home Depot or Ace and it will shine your piece like new.

South Australia
Brave Ella Noble, 4, was born with Spinal Muscular Atrophy but she doesn't let it hold her back
- From: The Advertiser
- April 05, 2014
ELLA Noble may never be a ballerina like her sister but the brave four-year-old is showing she's pretty talented with the paint brush.
The little cutie was born with Spinal Muscular Atrophy, a genetic condition effecting the nerves of the spinal cord which deteriorate, weaken and eventually die.
There are varying types of the disease - Ella has Type 3, which is one of the least severe but it still means she will never live a completely normal life.
She uses a wheelchair to get around, needs help getting in and out of the car and can't stand or walk for long periods of time.
Mum Cherie Noble, of Lower Mitcham, said the family "won the genetic lottery".
In an unlucky hand, Mrs Noble and husband, Dave, both have the gene which gave their children a 25 per cent chance of getting the condition.
Both Ella and brother Jay, 10, live with the condition, while middle child Ava, 6, does not.
"Ava does ballet but she (Ella) can't do ballet," Mrs Noble said.
"She says to me 'mum, when can I do dance?' but we want to build on their strengths and interests and Ella always had an interest in art and craft so we directed her towards that."
With help from Novita Children's Services and funding from the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the family enrolled Ella into Little Picassos, specialised art classes designed for youngsters.
"It's something that she doesn't' have to try and fit into and they don't have to modify it to include her," Mrs Noble said.
"She's not treated any differently in that space."
Ella's now a budding artist, but Mrs Noble said the classes have also helped her confidence.
"It's made a huge difference already - her first piece of art we framed and it's beautiful," she said.
Not a day goes by the proud mum doesn't think about what Ella's already achieved.
"It (the condition) doesn't hold her back from living life to the fullest," Mrs Noble said.
"They (Ella and Jay) just accept it and this is how it is and they get on with it."Originally published as No holding back brave little Ella

Videogame Hockey Faceoff: NHL 2K11 Vs. NHL Slapshot
Quick! You have only $50 to spend on a Wii hockey game and have a choice between NHL 2K11 from 2K Games and NHL Slapshot from EA Sports. Which do you buy?
A. NHL Slapshot
B. NHL 2K11, a venti latte and a scone
C. None of the above — and wait until the two companies up the ante in their 2012 versions
In a year where the two major publishers of sports games appear to have dropped the puck in developing their version of Wii hockey games, I'd opt for C. If you really poke check me to pick one, I'd have to go – grudgingly – with the EA Sports game because its controls are a bit more-intuitive and the responsive and gameplay are just a tad more fun. But it's a race between two nags and it's about time 2K and EA seriously overhaul their NHL franchises, including the tired commentary.
It's hard not to compare these two NHL-licensed games, side-by-side. Graphics on both are just so-so, which is pretty standard for the Wii. There's nothing visually stunning about the player animations, ice, crowd or arenas in either game. The games feature NHL lineups, but the version of 2K11 I had included extremely out-of-date lineups, and I ran out of time trying to get my Wifi connection to work and download the post-trade and free agency rosters. Both offer challenges to win the Stanley Cup, league play, exhibitions and multiple skill settings. The commentary sounded much like an NHL game, but with canned comments repeated over and over and over, game after game after game. It was a bit like "Groundhog Day"–without the laughs and Bill Murray.
Two cool things about NHL 2K11 are when player sticks get broken – not that anything really happens beyond that — and when players square off to fight. When all else fails and you're down 6-0 in the second period, the gloves just have to come off or it won't be any fun.
But that's about it for 2K11. It's biggest problem is that the motion controls are horrible. I thought it was my inexperience at playing the game that was mucking things up, but even after several days, I wasn't able to snap off a quick shot with any regularity, yet when I would go for a bigger, harder shot, I'd often get a pass or wrist shot. I was constantly overskating my destination and I kept getting muddled about what stick or button did what. In the end, the only way I could mount any sort of challenge against my opponent was to use the traditional controller. I don't know about you, but if I'm shelling out $40 for a Wii game, it's because I want the full Wii experience with motion controllers.
That's where EA Sports NHL Slapshot excelled – sort of. The game comes with a plastic stick in which you can nestle the controller and nunchuk. But the darn thing comes in bewildering pieces with a floppy, cheap foam head (is this why the game costs about $10-$15 more than NHL 2K11?) and is harder to assemble than an Ikea bookcase. Instead of well-diagrammed instructions in the manual, a bearded dude in an Edmonton Oilers jersey (turns out it's Joe Nickolls, NHL Slapshot producer) offers tips on assembly when you launch the game. At the speed those instructions race by and with no pause function that I could figure out, he might as well be speaking Swahili. When I completed assembly, my stick head was facing in the wrong direction because I'm a lefty.
Still, as long as I pretended the upside-down stick didn't look goofy, the controls actually worked fairly well. A wrist shot was pulled off just by snapping the stick a tad forward. A slapshot involved pulling the stick much higher and featured a flaming contrail. And yes, the most-violent part of the game was also the most fun for me. You body check by slamming the stick forward with both hands on it. Onscreen, your player decks another with a satisfying bright-yellow flash.
NHL Slapshot has a peewee-to-pro mode that was fun the first time, but tiresome thereafter. I loved the three-on-three peewee games, with your young NHL stars or players you create skating on a backyard rink. No penalties, just pure hockey action. Working your way up to the pros was fun and pretty easy. Other modes in Slapshot include two-on-two, free-for-all, shots versus the goalie and classic shootouts.
Still, while this game was slightly more fun and easier to play than the 2K version, it had a very similar cartoonish, arcade feel to it and mostly dumb artificial intelligence by the CPU. The computer defense in both games featured slackers who were hesitant to check or slide a stick in front of my passes. Defenders almost never defended in bunches or swarmed around my player when the computer needed to up the pressure and score a goal late in the game.
Maybe it's not fair to compare these two to other NHL hockey games, but when I think about how smoothly and beautifully EA Sports's NHL 2011 for the Xbox-360 played, how realistically the games felt, even when you were controlling the lowly Frankfurt Lions, I'd just hang on to my cash this year if I wanted a good hockey game for the Wii. Here's hoping that the next time they hoist Lord Stanley's Cup that 2K and EA Sports give us reason to celebrate their NHL hockey games.

The general consensus about geothermal energy pumps, is nearly overwhelmingly positive. They represent the most energy-efficient and environmentally clean heating and cooling systems available. The US Department of Energy said that heat pumps can save a typical home hundreds of dollars each year, and pay itself off in around 8-12 years. Since 2008 tax credits have been available for Energy Star systems that can reduce this payback period. Geothermal systems can be especially useful in rural areas, where propane or electricity would normally be used for heating and cooling, but heat pumps are considerably less expensive. Geothermal energy is very up and coming, with great potential as a long-term sustainable energy system.
There are some downsides to geothermal heat pumps. The most considerable of which is cost. Although heat pumps have a relatively short payback period, and long-term savings, heat pumps are more expensive at installation than a typical heating and cooling system. Additionally, they are possibly not the best option for existing structures, because installation requires digging up the areas surrounding the building. Due to its relative 'newness' as an energy source, many heating and cooling installers may not be familiar with the technology.
- Ashley's Opinion :
- In my opinion, assuming the technology is available to you in your area, geothermal heat pumps seem like the best option for anyone's heating and cooling system. Environmentally, the systems are so efficient and so quickly return any initial investment, that cost would be a moot point. In the building of a new home, one would just add the additional expense of the geothermal heating system to their mortgage, and in the grand scheme would make the expense nearly negligible. However, if I were living in an old home, I would not go out of my way to replace my heating system with a geothermal one, the digging would be extensive and have higher upfront cost.
- Wanessa's Opinion :
- For me, heat pumps are one great idea that is good for the environment and for your pocket. People may think that because it cost a lot of money to install, it is not good. However, the money that you invested in heats pumps will be back in your pocket in a few years. It was proved that heat pumps are really efficient, and even though you have an old house I believe that would be good to install heat pumps,at least, I would. Heat pumps are the future, and the future is already here.
- Emily's Opinion :
- Although installing a geothermal heat pump is expensive (generally ranging from $10,000 to $30,000), the benefits outway its cost. The geothermal heat pump has a much lower operating cost than other systems and will use clean and renewable energy! Another benefit is it is quiet and the geothermal energy pump can last about fifty years. In my opinion the geothermal heat pump will pay for itself and save you money.

Questions about war
IT SEEMS that every time you read the newspaper or listen to a news report, they mention war with Iraq. I'm a Vietnam veteran, and I don't think t people remember what a police action was back then or what war would mean now. The war in my day was over many things. Do we really need to go to war? Do we need to put our sons, daughters, brothers, fathers and mothers in harm's way? Is war the only possible way to provide safety at home.?
Pandora's Box
THERE IS a vast difference between a pre-emptive strike and a preventive war. In preparing to embark on the latter course, who knows what will result when the United States opens this Pandora's Box.
No subtle threat
I CAN'T believe Catherine B. Leapheart -- a state government official, no less -- would write that she "takes exception to this case being tried in the court of public opinion" in reference to a current legal issue regarding the payment of unemployment-insurance benefits to someone who uses drugs. This is a not-so-subtle threat to the Opinion page of the Southeast Missourian. Leapheart's comment made my heart skip several beats.
Make a shelter
TO ALL who own empty buildings: Why don't you do something useful with them like make a shelter?
Bully policy
THE DANGER with the United States always playing bully in its foreign policy is that bullies always have to be watching their backs.
Lopsided deals
THE U.S. negotiates lopsided trade deals all of the time. This is because our leaders, Democrat and Republican, are totally beholden to the corporations that fund their elections. These companies are making huge profits off of all of this. They couldn't care less if something is made in China or the United States, and they certainly don't care about the American worker.
No Call List problems
I AM on the Missouri No Call List. I recently received a newsletter from Attorney General Jay Nixon tooting his horn about the $645,000 paid to Missouri by violators of the no-call law. Where did that money go? Postage for this mailing totals $442,800. I wonder what the printing and processing costs were. I'm thinking that Nixon could have found a better use for the money. He positions himself and the state as being "a model for more than 20 states that have joined us in the national movement to end abusive telemarketing practices." Missouri was one of the last states to join. The telemarketing industry has been in need of legislation to weed out the illegal telemarketing operations for many years. However, the No Call List should simply be a service. In my opinion, states should have no right to take a position against telemarketers or any other profession. What's next?

Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day homeschoolers! Today is a great day to learn about one of our nation's most influential people. Martin Luther King Jr. Day usually means people get the day off. Except for us, we're doing school today, and taking some time to reflect and remember on the life and influences of an amazing person in United States history. Even if you're taking a break today, it's a great idea to take a little bit of time to gather around the computer and listen to his inspirational words in person. Martin Luther King Jr. was born in 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia. He attended the Booker T. Washington High School. He skipped both nigh and eleventh grades, and entered Morehouse college in Atlanta at age 15, in 1944. He later became both a Baptist minister and a civil-rights activist, having a huge impact on race relations in the United States beginning in the mid-1950's. He headed the efforts to end legal segregation of African-American citizens in the South and in … [Read more...]
Martin Luther King Jr. Day
The Middle Ages Review & Update
Hi everyone! As you may recall, we decided to try the Homeschool in the Woods Middle Ages history unit this year. Since we're a few months into our curriculum, I thought I'd do an update on how it was going so far. Right off the bat I have to say that our kids are really enjoying history this year. They're always excited when it's time for history and each day has a fun activity that makes learning fun! Right now we're knee deep in castle life. We've learned about the different casts of people, various jobs, and roles that each person plays in the system. We all picked which group we would want to be in, a few people wanted to be freemen, some went for the nobles, no one was brave enough to be king, and unfortunately no one wanted to be a serf. Go figure. We also made puppets of all of the different groups of people. This one took a little longer than expected to color, but everyone wanted their own full set of figures. So we just stretched it out for a few days. Once … [Read more...]
Making History Fun!
Hello fellow students of life! Today I wanted to show you how we make our history lessons more fun, hands-on, and memorable! It is my belief that when students are creating things themselves they tend to remember it better. And since history isn't always the most exciting subject for some kids, we like to do things to make it a little more fun. And to help them remember all of the main events and things that are important! To help supplement our history curriculum this year we've been adding in the Evan-Moor History Pockets and the Scholastic Interactive 3-D American History maps. I shared a post already on how we love them, but now that our year is coming to a close I wanted to show you some of what we've created over the course of the year. Most of these are from the Life in Plymouth Colony History Pocket. Since we were studying American History for the majority of the year, these fit in really well with our units. And like I mentioned, they are a lot of fun, and … [Read more...]
We're Loving History Pockets!
Hi everyone! I wanted to share a fun addition to our curriculum this year. As most of you know we've been using Abeka for our history curriculum. I love that the materials are a written to each grade level. It is easy for the kids to read, understand, and remember. And I feel like the amount of content covered each day is definitely good for their attention spans. But what it isn't…is hands-on. And if you have been reading my blog for any amount of time, you know that I'm a fan of hands-on, interactive learning! Especially for history, which can be kind of dry, I like to add in fun activities. So to help supplement that we've been adding in the Evan-Moor History Pockets and the Scholastic Interactive 3-D American History maps. And right now Evan-Moor is offering free shipping on any online credit card order over $25, good through Jan. 31st! Use coupon code: SHIP114 The history pockets come in several different themes, so I just picked up a couple that went … [Read more...]
Homeschool History Curriculum Forum
Welcome to day 4 of my Homeschool Curriculum Forum/Discussions! Today we're talking all about the subject of history. Now I have to say that historically speaking history has been a large part of most homeschooling families. I on the other hand haven't been quite so enthusiastic regarding the topic! While I have done my own Road Trip USA which includes a basic history of the United States of America for younger learners, I haven't been too out of the box for this subject yet. So I'm sure you all have some great ideas and opinions on this topic to share! This current year I was really overwhelmed with so many things going on that we decided to simplify wherever we could. History and Science, which we'll discuss later, were two areas that we tried to make my life a little easier and less stressful. So this year, and most likely next year we're going to be doing Abeka's History curriculum. Since Turbo and Strawberry Shortcake are only one grade level apart, they do the same … [Read more...]
Imagination Station Series Giveaway
I'm always looking for fun educational reading for my kids, so I was totally excited when I was contacted to review the Imagination Station adventure series! I was equally excited to see my kids jump at the chance to read them! The Imagination Station series is a historical fiction adventure series for young readers, published by Tyndale House and Focus on the Family. These books were created by the same people who created Adventure's In Odyssey, so knew they'd be great! Think "Magic Tree House" but from a biblical perspective! Here are some details from the publishers: Travel back in time and sail with the Vikings, meet a Roman emperor, come face-to-face with China's Kublai Khan, and experience a host of other historical adventures in the Imagination Station series for young readers. Written for early readers, ages 7 and up, the series features the virtual reality device the Imagination Station, which is one of the major plot devices used in the Adventures in Odyssey … [Read more...]

MIDDLESBORO, Ky. (AP) - Bell County Judge-Executive Albey Brock left his official vehicle outside the courthouse, but noticed it wasn't where he parked it after coming back outside.
Turns out, someone stole the green Jeep Patriot on Thursday. Bell County Deputy Sheriff Shane Stewart says the vehicle, which had bumpers and doors emblazoned with "Bell County Fiscal Court" on it, was found on fire later in the day.
Brock told The Daily News he parked the Jeep around noon, but couldn't find in an hour later. Stewart says it is unusual for a vehicle to go missing from the courthouse square.
Brock says the case proves "nothing is safe" when an official vehicle can be stolen from in front of the courthouse.
The case is under investigation and is being treated as arson.

I upgrade to the new version of WP and am now locked out of the admin area although the site is still operational.
If i ask for a password reminder, when I click on the link and reset password it redirects to a 404 Page not found.
I installed thw WP Better Security plugin before Christmas but didn't take the option to change the wp-admin name.
I have now deleted the WP Better Security plugin by FTP just incase that was the problem
I cleared the cache and cookies and reopened the browser
Neither has made any difference.
The site is hosted on Dreamhost so doesn't have CPanel.
What can I do now please?
