Enrique Iglesias (Interscope)
Milli Vanilli he's not, but Enrique Iglesias had to stoop to going on Howard Stern's radio show last year to prove he could sing live. Such indignities sometimes happen when your dad is Julio Iglesias and some people think you haven't exactly had to work your bonbon off to get where you are. To be fair, Iglesias, 26, was huge in the Spanish-speaking world well before his 1999 English-language debut earned him a seat on the Latin-pop bandwagon next to Ricky Martin, Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez. But he was never as dynamic a singer as Anthony nor as charismatic as Martin, and, well, J.Lo is J.Lo.
Iglesias's sophomore disc, Escape, doesn't do much to disprove his naysayers. Nothing here is even irritatingly catchy like his breakthrough hit "Bailamos." Such up-tempo Latin-lite numbers as the title tune, "Love to See You Cry" and "I Will Survive" (no relation to the disco chestnut) are as bland as white bread. The whimpering ballad "Hero" only magnifies his trembly vocals. Three tracks are repeated in both English and Spanish, but they don't work in either language.
Bottom Line: Escape from Enrique
Picks and Pans Review: Escape

Even if you don't run your AVG on start up this is still going to happen. I have tried older versions of DVDFab and am still getting the same result, so I guess it must be residue of AVG in the system.
Lately this software has been getting much better and is about the most complete pkg for what it does. However with the new ability to convert to MKV it has become quite buggy in it's ability to overcome the MKV file to play PGS/sups. The new versions convert the PGS subs to idx/subs.With each recent version it has been making headway but on as many occasions as not it produces unplayable idx/subs and it does not include the original PGS subs. So you are left with starting over and ripping the BR and doing the conversion to MKV with other more reliable software.
Until the software has the ability to produce 100% accurate idx/subs a quick fix would be to keep the original PGS intact as well as producing the IDX/sub.
this software still has an issue in the "movie only mode for bd25" (using Win7 64bit on a intel quad core) in backing up a movie title called "the mummy returns" as were "BD Rebuilder" works great. about an 1 hour & 15 to 17 minutes into the movie, the picture will start to flutter then stops & flutters there for about 1 minute or more, it is where the bird (a hawk I believe) flies up to a man sitting on a horse. I use this particular blu-ray disc, as a test bed sort a speak, with this program since v188.8.131.52 & this problem still exist to their latest v126.96.36.199 release. so I now have 1 bd25 coaster and will not trust it with anymore until I see this problem fixed. however, DVDFab has a good start and it does have a great GUI but still "BD Rebuilder" is much faster and does more for the money, oh wait, its FREE!,, if you don't plan to donate anything, but how long will the good/great software programs be around if you don't pay-to-play??? would YOU work for nothing???
at first i thought i made a mistake buying dvdfab for blu-ray. i was wrong, in the last month dvdfab has really upped this program, it is superb now for use on blu-ray
Acceptable can be problematic on some older dvds. Otherwise the program is very good.
If you disregard the trolling comment [as you should], I think everyone who's tried it agrees that for decrypting discs, DVDFab generally works, period. That in itself is fairly remarkable given that the big Hollywood studios now look at their DVD market as a nuisance, being far more concerned about DRM than whether the disc even plays -- Disney apparently even strips menus, subs, & CC out of their special, rental DVDs (Up), & who knows what out of their retail versions. Yet as the studios devise all sorts of ways to break their DVDs, fengtao keeps working constantly to release new versions to keep up with them. It takes time & money to do that, & apparently there are now sites selling illegal versions of DVDFab, so they're experimenting with ways to sell more copies -- a while back they had problems with new license-related code. Now if you use the latest free version, if/when it detects certain DVDs, a message tells you to wait for future versions or something like that, so it makes a difference whether you license the app or not -- up till now there was no reason to ever pay if all you used was the decryption. Whether that works out & stays in DVDFab time will tell. The latest DVD *Rippers* I've seen sold [not counting AnyDVD] don't decrypt the disc at all, but re-record the playing video -- many users don't know about DVDFab &/or don't notice the difference -- so DVDFab has some competition that puts more effort into sales/marketing & less keeping up with the latest DVDs. Users who feel they *have* to buy something, may choose something else besides DVDFab. Beyond decrypting discs, DVDFab also has quite a few conversion features -- whether or not you feel it's worth it, there are conversion-only apps selling for more... there is free software to do most any conversion (sometimes better), but the free stuff can also be harder to use, &/or not play nice with other apps you have installed. One thing DVDFab could use is a good manual &/or help file -- another is even a part-time DVDFab-staffed support forum, since user &/or fan mods are often knowledgeable & accurate, but seldom customer service trained or oriented, & this is something DVDFab's competition is working on.
I believe Igor88 is incorrect is saying DVDFab removes the layer break, though the mistake is understandable... the layer break is not included, not a part of the files on a DVD, & apparently not a part of an ISO itself. ImgBurn can/will keep the layer break intact in it's MDS file that accompanies an ISO you make from the DVD, but if you open/burn just the ISO, it's not there -- ImgBurn then asks you to select it, suggesting a break based on a cell's seamless flag not being set.
Some real idiot comments below, by (need I say?) idiots. Nothing has changed in this software. It keeps getting updated as per normal. If you urgently want the updates for your new stupid new-release Hollywood crap DVDs, then bloody pay for it if those moronic stupid glamshit movies mean so much to you, and avoid the month delay or whatever it is. Frankly I have no sympathy for moronic assholes who get so horny over Hollywood's latest "blockbuster" shit. Go get a life.
*Apologies to the person who suggested a warning about scratches on DVD, that is a good idea.
The current videohelp.com description (see above) of this software is now inaccurate. Fengtao recently changed all of their nomenclature which is very confusing. There are now effectively three versions: trialware (30 days), payware (you pay for a license), and free(cripple)ware. All are loosely called DVDFab, but that seems to particularly apply to the trialware and payware. Supposedly trialware and payware have the same functionality, except after you buy the license all restrictions are removed. The free(cripple)ware is also known as DVDFab HD Decrypter, but it is no longer a simplified version of DVDFab. All versions are the same software, installed from the same .exe file. The installation .exe files are downloaded from different links and have different names, but they're actually the same. That seems deceptive, perhaps a commercial ploy, or maybe simply lethargy in their administrative and development processes. The functionality of the free(cripple)ware is supposedly the same as the trialware and payware, except it blocks ripping of recent movies for about 60 days (they say). However in my experience the free(cripple)ware is now poorly designed, uses obscure and poorly defined nomenclature, has only incomplete and out-of-date operating instructions, and is somewhat buggy and unreliable. That's unfortunate because it was previously a useful free utility for ripping almost all DVD movies. In my opinion DVDFab is greatly overpriced and I recommend against purchase.
Overall, DVDFab is not bad. Normally it rips discs without problems. However, the one annoyance is if a disc is not perfectly clean, it will assume the disc is scratched and skip sections of the movie without telling me. For this reason, DVDFab is normally not me first choice. If there are errors, please tell me, so I can try cleaning the disc! First I try DVDShrink, which works for the average DVD. If that fails I try Ripit4me. If neither of those programs can copy the disc even after several cleanings, I then try DVDFab. The only time DVDFab has failed completely is with dithat will not play in my DVD player.
I think $40 is a fair price for this program, and I would probably buy it if it had a simple pop-up to alert me to try cleaning the disc.
One gripe I have with this program (am currently using the free version) is that it removes the layer break when you're copying a dual-layer DVD to an .iso file even when you ask it not to by removing the checkmark beside "Remove layer break" under Common Settings. That's a surprising oversight for a program that costs as much as this ($50 for a 1 year license just to use the DVD functions).
My "go to" programs for backing up DVDs have until lately been DVD Shrink and RipIt4Me/DVD Decrypter, but when I found I had trouble backing up the full disc of the latest Rambo movie, I tried this program out and it worked like a charm.
However, I just tried to back up the 4-disc Criterion Collection release of The Last Emperor, and found that:
1. On disc 1 of the set, I get a CRC error from ImgBurn when burning the rip from DVDFab to a Verbatim DL disc (though if I click "retry" a few times, the disc does finish, finalize, and pass verification). These types of errors, I've come to find out, are usually indicative of some sort of a sneaky data protection scheme on the source disc. The same thing happened when I burned an .iso of the same disc that was made using RipIt4Me/DVD Decrypter. In other words, DVD Fab did no better than DVD Decrypter on this disc.
2. On disc 3 of the set, I got so many CRC errors while trying to burn the output from DVDFab that the burn failed midway through and could not be finished and finalized.
I don't know exactly what the problem is, but it seems as though there's something about these two discs (particular disc 3) that is messing DVDFab up; maybe a protection that DVDFab isn't able to break.
I had another experience where DVDFab was unable to copy a disc that had a nasty scratch, but DVD Shrink had no problem copying it at all.
The free version of DVD Fab is a useful addition to one's toolkit, since it can deal with protection schemes with which DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter can't, not having been updated in a number of years. So it's good for the occasional troublesome DVD like Rambo, and it's also useful for getting data on the protection schemes used on a DVD before trying to back it up, potentially saving you from making coasters from expensive DL blanks. However, as a paid program, I don't think DVD Fab is worth what they're asking for it, especially given the problems outlined above and the fact that DVD Shrink and RipIt4Me, which are both free, can deal with about 80% of the discs out there, despite their age.
I only gave the program an 8 on "ease of use" because although it is easy to use, I found the interface almost too dumbed down, which ironically made it harder to use. Instead of using a standard Windows interface, with all of the menus made clearly available up top, it took me a while to figure out how to get to the program's settings, or that you even could change the settings.
I also noticed on DVDFab's website that they give you 20% off if you buy the program by such and such a date. Thing is, when "such and such" a date [fill in the blank] rolls around, the offer is always renewed for another x amount of weeks. In other words, they're using deceptive marketing practices to try to get you to buy the program RIGHT NOW. I find such practices rather insulting myself. If a 1 year license really only costs $40, then just say so, instead of charging $50 and telling people you're giving them a 20% discount for a "limited time." If you want to improve sales, then concentrate on developing a loyal customer base by improving the quality of your software, instead of using underhanded sales gimmicks like this.
For standard DVDs the program is useful. There are better alternatives, however. I am amazed that problems with PathPlayer still exist. The software has a setting for it to be turned off, turned on, or for the program to decide and turn it on when necessary. The latter option is the default setting yet time and time again I see people having issues where it is recommended that they either turn PathPlayer always on or turn it always off. The technology is extremely buggy if the default program settings don't work.
BluRay support is still in its infancy and the price for the BluRay option is simply outrageous. The number of BluRay discs supported is limited by the current capabilities of the program. The experimental support for MKB 14 and The Haunting In Connecticut is exactly as listed. It does nothing more than cause DVDFab 126.96.36.199 to crash either during or upon the completion of the scanning of the BluRay disc.
For those using the free version of the software just to handle DVDs the program is worth being free although the PathPlayer issues make the user have to know more and adjust the settings quite often. BluRay support in the paid version just isn't up to snuff.
Still won't open a Haunting In Connecticut Blu ray. I'm waiting to see who figures it out first- These guys or the any hddvd fellows! This is still a good program but I use the latter. Downloaded because the update said the beta would open my disc--HIC--
I have been using this since DVDFab 2, and that was a long time ago. The development over the years has increased greatly. I will always be a DVDfab user.
man!!!! this is awesome. i have ripped 3 movies so far and have had no problems, i am still trying out all the features, but my system crashes while i try to select let's say split, or the other options. but for now i am satisfied with copying movies.
this is truly awesome.
and for freeware- this is truly awesome
I have been using DVDFab HD Decrypter (free version) for years without a single issue, the scores I gave this software speak for themselves.
Starting with version 5115 it supports HD-DVD. I have been able to rip my HD-DVD's to my HD without problems. It even seems faster than AnyDVD and it's free.
great for dvd's, worthless for blu-ray
Excellent tool, been using this since rip it 4 me ceased development, never looked back, dealt with everything I've thrown at it, never had a coaster, never had a problem.
keep up the good work, cheers guys.
Still totally fails to do anything with my Bluray drive. Fails to even see my drive let along do anything with it. If you want this tool to copy your bluray disc, you are better off putting the bluray disk on the top of a Xerox machine to get a copy. ;) This is totally useless by all definition of the word.
Will this program actually ever work with Blu-Ray and HD like it claims to? Try and ask them that you will get every excuse in the book. Isnt fouls advertising and or misleading the consumer against the law?
Problem with Windows 2008 Server(60-day Trial).
Every disk report IFO error.
The same disks were tested in other machine with Vista Home and XP and no problem with them.
Using AVG ver.7.5 I also get a virus warning stating Crash Rpt dll is a Trojan.
this version says it has a virus.
anybody else ?
Product is highly rated but I'm not commenting about the product but rather the access page. Sometimes there is a direct link to betas from VH and that's no problem but many times the link goes to this page
Doesn't someone on the DVDFAB site design team notice that it's hard to read white letters on pale blue/gray background or dark lettering on a dark blue background? This is obviously not your intention but your doing a good job of hiding the links.
The DEP exception was added in 2007.
"18.104.22.168 Beta (Aug 4, 2007)
- New: Added DVDFab to DEP exception list on Windows XP/Vista, to avoid crash problem at startup in certain cases."

McLane, McDowell lead way in Northwest Region Class AAA wrestling tournament
ALTOONA -- District 10 wrestling powers General McLane and McDowell flexed their muscles Friday on the first night of the Northwest Region Class AAA tournament at Altoona Field House.
The Lancers, team champions in the D-10 individual tournament, and Trojans, the district's dual-meet champs, each advanced a tournament-best six wrestlers into today's semifinals.
As a result, the two District 10 powers moved to the top of the team standings in the 32-team tournament. McLane leads the team race with 53 points going into today's action. McDowell, the defending regional team champion, is second with 48.5.
This is the latest showdown between McLane and McDowell this season. The Lancers won an early season dual against the Trojans and eventually claimed the Region 4-AAA title. McDowell countered by beating McLane in the title dual at the District 10 Class AAA team tournament and advanced to states. Last week, McLane again emerged on top by winning in the team title at the District 10 AAA tournament.
Today, the teams are poised to battle it out again for the region title while trying to qualify as many wrestlers to states as possible.
Cathedral Prep, which is in fifth place with 34 team points, pushed three into the semis Friday, with Central Tech, East, Oil City, Titusville and Warren each producing one semifinalist.
GM's Joe Wheeling at 106 pounds, Keller Watkins at 126, Mike Sutton at 152, Ossie Bowers at 160, Tyler Hendricks at 170 and Chris Laird at 182 all advanced through the quarters, and none had close calls.
McDowell's Paul Deitz at 120, Nick Gibson at 132, Shawn Spearman at 138, Cody Nolan at 145, Tyree Spearman at 160 and Kyle Rogers at 170 also made it through to the semifinals.
Returning champion Jake Gromacki of Cathedral Prep rolled into the semis at 113 pounds with a bye and then a first-period pin. He will be joined by John Ciotti at 120 and Dan Krysiak at 152.
Also reaching the semis were Andrew Welton of Central Tech at 285, Pat Williamson of East at 220 and D.J. Fehlman of Warren at 126.
Titusville's Ehrin Lee and Oil City's Trent Zdarko joined Spearman and Bowers in the semis at 160, giving D-10 a clean sweep at that weight.
Welton recorded a 7-second pin in the prelims.
McLane's Ken Stoll and McDowell's Scot Augustine were near-misses. Stoll lost 3-2 to DuBois' Garrett Brown in the 138-pound quarters.
Augustine pushed District 6 champ Matthew Barton of Hollidaysburg into the ultimate tiebreaker before losing 3-2 at 285.
McDowell's Charlie Lenox lost a 5-3 decision in the 106-pound quarters to D-9 champ Shae Bloom of DuBois.
The team race is shaping up as a two-way battle between General McLane and McDowell, with Bellefonte, Clearfield, DuBois and Mifflin County each putting four in the semis. But things will become clearer this morning when the second round of consolations gets under way at 9:30 a.m., followed by the semis at 12:30 p.m.
The finals are at 7 p.m.

Stetson University athletics had a banner year in the class room during the 2011-12 academic year, placing better than 70 percent of the school's student-athletes on the Atlantic Sun Conference honor rolls for the year.
The league, as a whole, saw its student-athletes perform at a very high level. More than 65 percent of the student-athletes in the Atlantic Sun Conference posted a 3.0 grade point average or better during the 2011-12 competition season, establishing a new record for academic excellence.
"I applaud all who continue to successfully achieve as student-athletes," A-Sun Commissioner Ted Gumbart said. "To see nearly two-thirds of our student-athletes earn this level of academic distinction means that they certainly are committed to the A-Sun's mission of 'Building Winners for Life.'
"It is important to recognize that this is a team effort, due to the commitment of the athletic administration, coaches and staff of our member institutions, who daily serve as the catalysts for such impressive development of our young people. Congratulations and thank you again to the institutions and to each student-athlete for providing such an outstanding representation of the Atlantic Sun Conference."
A total of 41 student-athletes earned Presidential Scholar recognition by completing their eligibility with a GPA of 3.8 or better. Among this elite group of scholars, eight received their undergraduate degrees while maintaining a perfect 4.0 GPA including Stetson's Maria Harper (Cross Country) and J.R. Weston (Men's Basketball).
The Hatters had a total of seven student-athletes on the Presidential Scholar list. In addition to Harper and Weston, Stephanie Bird (Cross Country), Jake Boyd (Baseball), Maksim Levanovich and Dane Moran (Men's Tennis) and Samantha Snyder (Women's Soccer) were recognized at the highest level for their academic performance.
Another 46 student-athletes claimed Commissioner Scholar recognition for landing between the 3.6 and 3.79 GPA status upon graduation.
Stetson had eight student-athletes named to that list, more than any other school in the league. Hatters on the Commissioner's Scholar list were: Carolyn Boyd (Softball), Gonzalo De Mujica and Matthew Delisle (Men's Soccer), Will Dorsey (Baseball), Jennifer Rinaberger and Crossley Simmons (Women's Soccer), Njal Stene (Men's Tennis) and Grace Tuner (Softball and Women's Soccer).
Conference Scholar recognition was bestowed on another 406 individuals for their sustained achievement over at least two years to go with a 3.4 mark or better. Stetson placed 55 student-athletes on that list.
The A-Sun recognized 1,416 student-athletes as All-Academic selections for their work in the classroom by reaching the 3.0 mark. Additionally, 89 percent of the A-Sun's 18 championship teams had at least half of the student-athletes on their rosters earn All-Academic recognition.
Four institutions eclipsed the 70 percent mark for All-Academic selections led by Belmont University who took home the Academic Trophy with over 76 percent of their student-athletes earning recognition. Lipscomb's 185 total honorees were the most in the conference and their 74 percent mark the second best while Mercer (73%) and Stetson (71%) student-athletes excelled above the 70 percent barrier as well.

May 12, 2006 | For more than the past decade, the struggle to achieve GxP regulatory compliance has forced life science companies to drastically alter their clinical operations and create well-defined standard operating procedures. The mandates specified in FDA 21 CFR Part 11 added further weight to the compliance burden, requiring data management groups to continually validate the technology used to create and manage the clinical data used in their submissions for marketing approval.
Today, for all practical purposes, GxP is well integrated into standard operating procedures and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance has become ubiquitous in the vast majority of vendor-supplied solutions. Life science companies have recognized the diminishing returns of developing their own bespoke applications to capture, manage, and submit their clinical data. And the result is a growing parade of companies turning to COTS (commercial off-the-shelf software) and technology subscription services to minimize their IT budget and regulatory exposure. But just as clinical operations and data management personnel were feeling as though they had tamed their compliance beasts of burden, many life science companies have noticed another elephant in the living room, and this one is wearing SOX.
In the latest Health Industry Insights Leading Indicators survey, when respondents were asked which compliance issues were driving their IT spending, GxP (GMP, GCP, and GLP) remained the top budget area for 2006 (see figure). Data Integrity and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance/data security rounded out the top three. However, over the past quarter, Sarbanes-Oxley nearly doubled, from 16 percent in Q4 2005 to 29 percent in Q1 2006.
The Other Elephant in the RoomThe loss in revenue from drugs being withdrawn from the market, such as Merck's Vioxx and Biogen's Tysabri, forced pharmaceutical companies to seriously rethink drug safety. But as the initial wave of panic in the tent over lost revenue subsided, pharmaceutical companies replaced those fears with a growing concern over the unknown costs of the impending increase in regulatory scrutiny, and in particular the impact of corporate governance legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley. It seems the walls erected to functionally divide organizations between regulated (clinical) and unregulated (everything else) may not function as well as life science companies had hoped.
Stockpile Bottled Water and Duct Tape?The existing GxP-regulated clinical processes will remain largely untouched by legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley. This is because these regulations are designed to reassure investors, who will gladly defer to the FDA on issues of clinical compliance. However, other functional areas such as investigator site management and payment processes, clinical operations functions considered unregulated in terms of GxP, will become fair game for financial auditors.
The CTMS Mighty MouseJust as the industry struggled with, but eventually succeeded in, bearing the burden of implementing processes that supported good clinical practices, as well as deploying technology that complied with 21 CFR Part 11, so too will it adapt to the transparency requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley. Look for clinical trial management systems (CTMSs) to play a critical role in enabling life science companies to comply with the financial disclosure provisions and corporate governance mandates of legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley. If life science companies can build their CTMS muscle strength, Sarbanes-Oxley won't crush clinical development, it will only make it stronger.

In this book the authors give a review of their own experimental investigation and clinical experience, a digest of most of the modern works of other investigators and a comprehensive picture of the whole problem of arterial hypertension. Through their own experiences, they are well prepared to write a book such as this. The main part of the book deals with the genesis of renal arterial hypertension in man and in animals. The writers conclude that hypertension in man is not identical with the hypertension found in the experimental animal, and they emphasize the anatomic differences between the two forms.
Considerable space is devoted to the results of their pioneer investigations on renin, hypertensinogen and hypertensin. In brief, they hold to the theory that renin plus hypertensinogen produces hypertensin (angiotonin), which is responsible for the arteriolar constricting that produces hypertension. They discuss the enzyme hypertensinase, a substance from the kidney,

MORGANTOWN - West Virginia and Maryland universities should be commended for extending their football rivalry through the year 2017.
The Mountaineers' 31-17 victory here last Saturday followed a two-year hiatus in that series. WVU agreed to the short suspension so the Terrapins could work in a two-year set with California.
So it's now assumed that the boarder-states rivalry might well continue indefinitely in football.
Article Photos
A sell-out crowd of 60,155 attended last week's renewal. And next year's return game at College Park , Md. , likely will sell out, too. People in both states always have been supportive of the series.
They probably always will be.
It's one of the most interesting and most physical rivalries in the East. It also is one of the most closely contested.
West Virginia leads the all-time series, stretching back to 1919, by a slim 24-21-2 margin.
West Virginia director of athletics Oliver Luck has said he'd like to get Virginia and probably Kentucky back on the football schedule. WVU last met the Cavaliers in 2002 and trails in that series 10-12-1.
Kentucky holds an 11-8-1 edge versus the Mountaineers in a series dating back to 1905. But the schools haven't met on the gridiron since 1983.
Some folks in southern West Virginia would like WVU and Virginia Tech to resume their rivalry. My guess is that's unlikely.
Those schools haven't met in football since 2005. WVU officials disliked the sneaky way the Hokies bolted the Big East for a berth in the ACC.
Then a year or two later, Tech dropped WVU in basketball.
Speaking of series and rivalries, there's a distinct difference, or so I've always believed.
I bring up that point because I think the term "rivalry" has been generally misused in reference to the football series between WVU and Marshall.
I've always been told that for a series to be a true "rivalry," there has to be wins on both sides of the ledger.
The last time I looked, WVU led that series 10-0!

The first of Heatherslaw Light Railway's 'Last Chance to see Lady Augusta' weekends takes place over June 7-8.
Lady Augusta will be running the full service over the whole weekend and will also be on show at the railway's 25th birthday party on July 1.
Also on June 8, visit Etal Village Hall for a Home Brew & Local Food Fair by the Brew Barn (www.thebrewbarn.co.uk). Free entry to this event which offers wine and beer sampling and a complete range of kits and equipment as well as an array of local produce and some crafts to buy too.
There are two new exhibitions in the old Bakery buildings at Heatherslaw - the first, by local archaeological group TillVAS, could be called 'Skirmish & War' as it focusses on border warfare and in particular the stories of local men who served in WWI. It's open every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday plus Bank Holiday Sundays and Mondays until late September.
The second, which is open daily until July 31, is a wildlife, landscape and military photography exhibition by two well-known local photographers, Jim Gibson and Ron McCombe. Admission to both exhibitions is free.

How to Download Flash Games
1 Attachment(s)
This is a little tut about how to obtain flash games from websites for use without the internet. Tools Needed: Mozilla Firefox, Adobe Flash (Standalone)
Ok, this will be most helpful for when you want to play your favorite internet flash games without an internet connection. As I said you will need to download Firefox and power it up. Navigate to your favorite games site. For instance I found that maxgames.com work well. click on your game of choice and let it load. When loaded right-click in the empty space to side of the game and click on View Page Info. Go the the Media tab at the top and scroll down the list to find the Embedded files. Find the one with the .swf attachment on it (it usually involves the game title in the file name). Click on it and click save. Now is when you need the Standalone Flash. What I mean be stand alone is the actual file folder on you hard-drive not just the add-in. Should be named something like Adobe Flash CS3. Now, right-click the .swf file and select open with the the Flash PLAYER. It should be a gray circle with an italicized lower-case f. Viola! You have a game that you can play at anytime without the Internet!
Re: How to Download Flash Games
This cannot be an article buddy but anyways its a cool way to download games but there is a simpler way as well.
Just save the web page on your PC (File > Save As) and the swf file will be saved in the folder along with the web page and you can use that. This works mainly in IE.

|Here are some details about my project:
|Traditional, Funky, Holiday, Cute, Hipster, Classic, Mod, Casual
What materials did you use? Coarse Weave Upholstery Fabric in Autumn Colors. Handmade polymer buttons, Soft, supple Charcoal Gray Corduroy for lining and interior pocket.
What are you most proud of? SPECIAL AFFECTS: I made handmade polymer clay medallions and buttons to pair with this autumn colors coarse weave upholstery fabric. TEXTURE: The gray corduroy fabric is super soft (slick too), and tends to slide when constructing pockets. Take your time, use extra pins when matching right sides together and sewing. The finished interior "feels" like old money.
Shoestring, your purse and coin purse are really adorable. I love the colors and the button details is perfect! I love it.
Hey there my friend Tanja. I tried to leave you a note early, but it doesn't seem to want to launch. Thanks for stopping by and leaving me a note. I'll send you an email soon to tell you what I've been doing, ok? I want to hear how you are doing.
I love this purse and coin purse, they look fabulous. Thank you for posting these the colours speak of the best of autumn
Hello Tabitha. I enjoyed reading your bio. Thanks for taking the time to stop and comment on my fall purses. I'm working on others this week and will post more of them. I started following your projects today. Very lovely work.
Hi Shoestring, I look forward to future postings from you. I have been inspired by you work to buy some furnishing fabric to have a go at making some bags, your tips are very useful too. Thanks

Juventus Greats, Michel Platini: The heartbeat of a legendary team in the early Eighties, one of the greatest players of all time produced some of his best performances for the Bianconeri.

Ryan Howard was the most valuable player in the National League in 2008. That he was not voted MVP by the Baseball Writers' Association of America says more about the association than about Howard, Albert Pujols or America.
Pujols was not an embarrassing selection, not with his excellent numbers, but was still the wrong selection. And that should embarrass the association enough to do what it should have done long ago: get out of the business of voting on baseball's postseason awards - as well as the Hall of Fame.

He continues to make the fans laugh at the AT&T Center and he is celebrating his 31st anniversary with the San Antonio Spurs. Of course I am talking about the team mascot – The Coyote.
From teasing fans in the stands, annoying the refs during timeouts to being the ultimate cheer leader for the silver and black, the Coyote works tirelessly to entertain the Spurs' faithful.
Check out video of the man himself celebrating 31 years starting in the 80s to now. Congratulations Coyote!

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — At press time, the seven-member study group assigned to evaluate the safety benefits of three-point belt systems on school buses was still working on recommendations that were to be presented to Alabama Gov. Bob Riley and the state legislature in early March.
According to Joseph Morton, Alabama's superintendent of education and the chair of the study group, the recommendations were 90 percent completed by mid-February but were not ready for public announcement, especially since Riley was out of the country at the time.
The study group was formed in the wake of the November 2006 school bus crash in Huntsville that killed four passengers and injured several others. The bus plunged off a highway overpass after being struck by another vehicle. It plummeted approximately 30 feet before landing nearly vertically on its front end.
To address the issue of improving school bus safety, Riley convened a committee to study the possible benefits of adding seat belts to Alabama's bus fleet.
In addition to Morton, the study group includes Joe Lightsey, pupil transportation director for the Alabama Department of Education; Ann Roy Moore, superintendent of Huntsville City Schools; Mary Jane Caylor of the state Board of Education; Col. Chris Murphy, director of the Alabama Department of Public Safety; Joe McInnes, director of the Alabama Department of Transportation; and Richard Dorrough, commissioner of the Alabama Department of Children's Affairs.
The study group participated in two days of hearings in early February in the chambers of the Huntsville City Council. Experts from around the country as well as the local region and state were brought in to testify on school bus safety.
"I think the hearings went very well," said Joe Lightsey, state pupil transportation director in Alabama. "There were a lot of people who provided some really good information on both sides of the issue."
The study group heard a wide variety of perspectives, ranging from the experience of a trauma surgeon to a biomedical engineer to a school bus driver. In addition, testimony was heard from federal officials, association representatives, bus and safety equipment manufacturers and transportation supervisors.
Robin Leeds, who represented the National School Transportation Association, was one of the early presenters. She, like many of the other speakers, testified to the exceptional safety record of school buses. "Yellow school buses transport 25 million students every school day, providing more than 9 billion student rides every year, with an occupant fatality rate of less than 10 and an injury rate of less than 0.2 percent," she said.
In her testimony, Leeds gave a "qualifed yes" to the question of whether lap/shoulder belts would add to the safety of schoolchildren on buses. She qualified her answer by saying that the systems must be three-point lap/shoulder systems, not lap belts, and must be properly worn. She added that the decision to add lap/shoulder belts must not displace children who would otherwise ride the bus. "The safest place for students is in a school bus, whether or not it has restraints," she said.
Meanwhile, Mike Martin, executive director of the National Association for Pupil Transportation, said he would like more direction from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on the issue and has called upon the federal agency to re-evaluate FMVSS 222, "School Bus Passenger Seating and Crash Protection," to establish a system that would definitively enhance passenger crash protection on school buses (see "NAPT calls for review of safety standards").
The study group was asked by Riley to deliver its recommendations by March 2, four days before the start of the state's 2007 legislative session.

You may feel pulled in different directions today, and you could end up spreading yourself and your time too thinly when trying to take care of your multitude of tasks and responsibilities. Perhaps you are working under one or more deadlines in your effort to succeed. The many duties you need to attend to today may leave scant time for you to take care of yourself. You may want to rework your agenda so that you do have time for yourself. Think about doing things that will make you feel good. You could enjoy a delicious meal, slowly savoring each bite. You could even go out and get some exercise or relax, breathe, and simply be.
When we are happy while attending to our tasks, we feel truly triumphant regardless of the outcome of our efforts. Because there is joy in our lives, we view everything around us in a positive light and appreciate that things are just as they should be, regardless of whether or not they are necessarily ideal. What's more, our happiness manifests itself through the work that we do, and we can be pleasantly surprised by how much better we are able to perform when our various responsibilities are undertaken in a joyful frame of mind. Allow yourself to be happy while you work today, and the success you enjoy as a result of your efforts will last for a long time.

In recent days, state lawmakers have been hearing various plans for redrawing the three congressional districts. It's important now to emphasize the word "hearing" - that's opposed to seeing.
One of those proposals, Senate Bill 199, splits Randolph County between the 2nd District and 3rd District. Where exactly is a good question. The bill lists Randolph County in both districts. It also includes "blocks" and voting districts, which are specified as "geographic areas as defined by the Bureau of the Census of the United States Department of Commerce for the taking of the 2010 census of population and described on census maps prepared by the Bureau of the Census." It could be presumed that these voting districts are precincts; but if so, is it based on the polling places from the most recent election or those boundary adjustments approved by the Randolph County Commission at the end of last year?
What would be most helpful in understanding the proposed division of Randolph County is a map. The presentation of Senate Bill 199 on the Legislature's website doesn't include a map. A couple of our representatives in Charleston say they haven't seen one either. A handful of Randolph County residents have contacted The Inter-Mountain wanting to know when a map will be available, and county commissioners say they'd like to see one, too.
Merely explaining the division proposal to lawmakers just doesn't cut it. It also makes us wonder about the intentions behind the exclusion of a map.
For now, we have a few other things to keep in mind. Senate Bill 199 isn't the only redistricting proposal on the table. In fact, Sen. Clark Barnes, R-Randolph, introduced a version that keeps Randolph County united. Delegate Bill Hartman, D-Randolph, tells us the issue is "a long way from being settled" as the fate of the previously struck-down version of the congressional districts hangs in the balance of the courts.
So, it seems, a lot of different scenarios could come into play. While we're waiting, that should give the sponsors of Senate Bill 199 plenty of time to have someone put together a map.

Look out Non-Comm, here comes Bob Lefsetz.
Bob who? Non-what?
Non-Comm is the shortened term for the annual radio industry gathering officially called the Non-Commvention, which is hosted by WXPN-FM (88.5-FM) and starts Thursday in University City.
It will bring an assortment of high-wattage and up-and-coming names to World Cafe Live over the next three days, including Willie Nelson, Norah Jones, Beth Orton, Brandi Carlile, and the War on Drugs. (Tickets for all those artists are sold out, but piano man Rufus Wainwright highlights a free Saturday afternoon show at the new Penn Park, at 31st and lower Walnut Streets.)

The 2010 season is officially under way, and week one created more questions rather than answering the existing ones. We knew going into the season that the Alabama Crimson Tide were the team to beat in the SEC and nationally, but now that week one is over that's about all we know about SEC Football circa 2010.
Ole Miss embarrassed themselves and the SEC, LSU almost gave one away to North Carolina, and Florida looked more like FIU. Other teams like Georgia, Auburn, and South Carolina were very impressive.
The following is the state of the SEC after the first week of the 2010 season.
Note: This will be a weekly article for the entire 2010 season. Be prepared to agree or disagree, but don't come weakly. Be strong with your convictions, or back away from your keyboard. Only the strong survive.
