To celebrate the library will have a display and is also hosting Blind Date with a Banned Book. Stop by the library when you have a few minutes to spare and choose one of the gift-wrapped books on display. Meet your new banned or challenged book and decide if you want to take it home. If not, return it with no hard feelings and try again. All who participate will received a themed bookmark and have their name entered into a drawing for a themed prize. Participants should be 15 years old or older as books will be from the YA and adult collections.
Barn Quilts with Danny Steiber

Chair-ity fundraiser continues!
Put your creative talents to work for this biennial fundraiser for the library! Pick up a wooden chair from the library, decorate the item any way you like, and return it to the library by October 17. If you have a wooden chair or other item you want to use you can, but it must be wooden please! Chairs will be displayed in the library and a silent auction will be held October 17 - November 13. All proceeds will be used to improve the library's services and collections.
September is Library Card Sign-up Month
September is a time when the American Library Association and libraries across the country remind everyone that a library card is the smartest card you can own. Snoopy is the honorary chair for this month so to celebrate we'll be having Snoopy & Peanuts themed programs and contests all month! Come sign up for a library card in September and receive a library magnet, button, and a special Peanuts bookmark designed special for Library Card Sign-Up month. We are also hosting four opportunities this month for patrons of all ages to show their love for the library and for Snoopy and win prizes!

Golden Axe
Golden Axe Remake (best Golden Axe ever made)

- Golden Axe Remake (best Golden Axe ever made)
Since I have been uploading some Golden Axe videos lately on YouTube, it was inevitable that I stumbled upon some related videos.
One of them featured a home-made Golden Axe.
After a couple of months later, I decided to search for it due to a clue left by one comment: "Beats of Rage".
Fortunately, I knew Beats of Rage was a game developed by Senile Team, which featured characters from The King of Fighters in scenes with Streets of Rage 2 gameplay.
I also knew there was some good MODs made with the Beats of Rage engine (OpenBOR) out there, such as Battletoads, which had the main character from Comix Zone, so I decided to search for this remade Golden Axe.
No much later, I found a good site with lots of MODs and this fan-made version of Golden Axe, as well as its author, which was the same one who had uploaded the video I had seen on YouTube.
Therefore, I created an account for me, downloaded this game and played it.
Just one comment is necessary: WOW!
To color your expectations a little bit, it is the arcade version with some features from Golden Axe II and III from Sega Mega Drive.
Enough said. Let's see something:
Engine: Openbor
Game: Golden Axe Remake
Author: utunnels
Oficial OpenBOR Website: LavaLit
Videos (from the first version... the latest version is even more impressive):
Story mode:
Duel mode (ahhh... old school hack'n slash!):
Unfortunately, there's no video for Skeleton mode, where you play as a Black Skeleton.
Website: LavaLit (http://www.lavalit.com/)

Like I said in my other topic. Good find! You're like the only person on this board (well apart from myself probably) who actually cares enough about the game to actually want to put up GOOD quality material/information. Everyone else just seems to come here to bump dumb **** up that doesn't contribute anything to the boards.
Any way, I like what I saw on the vid. I haven't downloaded it yet (frankly can't be bothered) but it definitely looks interesting enough to try if I'm ever bored.
I like the new game modes. Like someone on that youtube video said.. duel mode is like a hack n' slash orgy.
I also thought that the dark skeleton mode was a very clever new feature where you play with a timer on your hp and you have to continually drain hp by attacking enemies.
I just miss the one thing:
Death Bringer and his magic and his skeletons.
I agree that Death Adder is the real deal, but I would put in some enemies after his "death" and when the battle is over, he gets up again and begin fighting seriously with magic. With this, Death Adder would still be the greatest foe in Golden Axe.
Rest, Avatar...you will need it!

http://www.Guide2MarketingSuccess.com/?t=metcafe What's Included With MLMLeadSystemPRO? With your membership in MLM Lead System PRO, you'll get: * A customizable, self-branded capture page system. * A sophisticated campaign tracking system that shows you exactly where your traffic, leads, and sign-ups are coming from. * A business funnel with 15+ affiliate products and services that complement your primary MLM opportunity, and help maximize the income you earn from every marketing dollar. * Detailed, step-by-step video tutorials that show you exactly how to set up your system, from registering your domain name through launching your marketing plan. * Cutting-edge marketing training on 10+ of the most effective Internet marketing strategies (both paid and free) used by the network marketing industry's top income earners. * Access to 24/7 live chat (via Skype) with other MLMLeadSystemPRO users and support staff who will help point you in the right direction if you get stuck, and offer ideas to improve your results. * Access to an exclusive, members-only social community where you can network and talk shop with other users of MLM Lead System PRO. How Many Network Marketing Leads Will MLMLeadSystemPRO Generate For Me? Ultimately, this depends on your effort. The system is not going to do the work for you, though it certainly makes it much easier than building everything by hand. Those who take massive action, and complete all of the marketing steps recommended in the system, will get massive results. Those who timidly dip their toe in the water will not. Budget (both in terms of time and money) also has an impact, here. One who puts some money into the paid marketing methods will get higher results than those who don't. One who invests more time and energy into the free marketing methods will generate more leads than those who don't. How Much Does MLMLeadSystemPRO Cost? The base cost of MLMLeadSystemPRO is $47 per month, though there is currently a $1 trial offer for the first 14 days—plenty of time to set the system up and see if it's going to work for you.

Actor John C. Reilly brings character to concert at Miller Caves
The Miller Caves, underneath the brewery that not only made Milwaukee famous but also helped define the city itself, apparently never seemed, until Sunday night, like a place to hold a concert.
In retrospect, after the very first such event courtesy of John C. Reilly and Friends, the historic location was a small club waiting to happen: The painted backdrop of cavorting (presumably) Germans had retro style, as did the overhead lamps and the high-arched ceiling. »Read Full Article(4)

Take a seat
Milwaukee's historic house museums are offering patrons a seat at their annual fundraising event Wednesday. And, afterward — guests can take the chairs with them. The Villa Terrace Decorative Arts Museum and the Charles Allis Art Museum have been blessed with chairs — or artistic riffs on chairs — created by local artists for this auction at 6 p.m. at the Villa Terrace. The seats range from an old easy chair dressed as a cozy grandmother to a pew made from doors to a partial-chair that's now totally sculptural. Other seats for auction are ones at theatrical productions, sporting events or a table in a local fine dining establishment. The evening also features live music, hors d'oeuvres and a cash bar. Tickets are $25. Making a reservation would be appreciated and can be done by calling Ann Steinbach at (414) 278-8295 Ext. 5, but it isn't mandatory.

2003 Nissan Frontier 2dr King Cab SE-V6 Desert Runner Rwd SB (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
I bought my 2002 Frontier Desert Runner
because it fits my needs for my
lifestyle. Having the 2 seats in the
KingCab has been perfect for traveling
with my 3 girls, as they have plenty of
room. I use my truck quite often for
work, loading it with heavy items, and
its great for a trip up to the
mountains as it has plenty of power. I
suggest a frontier to everyone!
As for the features that this truck
has...Plenty of power...ample
room...nice dynamic design...

Don't think anyone's raised the issue anywhere, but Cameron says he will release his tax returns.
What do people make of this move?
Graeme Archer argues in the Telegraph that "We shouldn't have the right to see David Cameron's tax return – or anyone else's".
In what other walk of life could an employer (the voters) ask to see their prospective employees' (candidates for PM/Mayor etc.) tax returns in order to judge their honesty/trustworthiness/whatever?
David Cameron to release tax returns.

Actually voters haven't asked...
But it comes up for people who need developed vetting - the FCO, GCHQ ect
Also when people are investing in businesses its pretty frequently.
That said, it shouldn't be assumed all politicians should open up their books, next we'll be demanding to see their medical records. However, politicians should be instilling faith / giving enough assurance that it isn't necessary for them to be revealed like this.
I don't think it's really necessary in the grand scheme of things, it's a complete non-issue. I'd rather he devoted his complete attention to the nations finances instead of wasting time by jumping on a populist bandwagon and divulging his own. That being said, my apathy to the subject leaves me lacking a noteworthy opinion on the matter.
It's only become an issue after Boris Johnson decided to use the issue of tax being paid against Ken Livingstone as Ken's policy of cutting/freezing fares gained him support and lost Boris his poll lead. Instead of Boris campaigning on his record or ideas.
It detracts from the bigger tax avoiders and tax exiles, and companies paying very little corporation tax.
As a member of the TSR MHofC I'm not about to declare mine, though I will say that I have never used a company to reduce the amount of tax I pay.
It's common practice in many countries that you have to declare all your incomes and assets as well as whether you're a director or shareholder in any companies prior to taking up public office, it's also fairly usual to be made to declare if you're a beneficiary of any trust.
I'm not so interested in Cameron's income tax or that of any politician's....... more interested in that of their spouse and other immediate family members, that's where the real jackpot is.
I'm totally unhappy with all this. My tax affairs are my business and no one else should have the right to see them.

I'm totally unhappy with all this. My tax affairs are my business and no one else should have the right to see them.
While I don't necessarily think DC should feel obliged to release his tax returns I think there should be a much tougher policy on people/businesses avoiding tax. It'll boost public perception of him if he turns out to be paying all taxes expected and if others follow suit public opinion of politicians would increase in a time when they are seen by many as "out for themselves" and disconnected from normal people.
Ultimately politicians are currently asking most people in the UK to suffer austerity so I can see why the electorate may want to check they are paying their fair share

I'm totally unhappy with all this. My tax affairs are my business and no one else should have the right to see them.
Nobody has even asked to see (directly) Camerons he's just decided to release them.
Depends how much you want to get reelected really.
(Original post by Aramiss18)
Well you're not someone make decisions on tax and public finance policy so no one would care.
(Original post by meenu89)
I should have been clearer in my OP. Even if I was standing for public office, my taxes are a concern for me only.
If they don't and you don't provide proof then fewer people would vote for you.
Which would be your risk to take.

The AMA has named the entire American contingent that will compete in the 77th running of the International Six Days Enduro (ISDE), to be held September 24-29, 2002 in Jablonec nad Nisou, Czech Republic.
Three members from last year's World Trophy Team – Fred Hoess, David Pearson and Nick Pearson – will join Tim Taber, Ron Schmelzle and Brian Sperle to form the 2002 Trophy team.
The four-member Junior Trophy team, which is limited to riders 23 years old and younger, will include Morgan Crawford, Wallace Palmer, Jonathan Seehorn and Dylan Debel.
For the first time in ISDE history, the U.S. squad will include one three-member club team composed entirely of riders from one family. Veteran enduro racers Randy, Amanda and Cody Mastin of Whitehouse, Ohio, will compete as "Family 'R US." Another 30 riders have been assigned to 10 other three-member club teams.
While only a handful of America's top off-road competitors will get the chance to compete in the 77th ISDE, interested spectators can also become a part of the ISDE experience – and tour the Czech Republic – with a tour put together by AMA Travel. The Team USA ISDE Tour runs September 17 through September 30, and includes round-trip airfare from New York to Prague via Czech Airlines; three-star accommodations for 12 nights in Harrachov; breakfast and dinner daily; car rental with unlimited mileage; an official Team USA jacket; and two matching Team USA T-shirts. The price is $1820 per person, double occupancy. For more information on the tour, call 800/262-5646, ext. 1196.

Poland: Symbols outlawed
President Lech Kaczynski this week approved hate crime legislation criminalizing "production, distribution, sale or possession" of communist - and fascist - symbols. Flaunting a red star or a Che Guevara tee shirt could lead to fines or two years in prison. Jaroslaw Kaczynski, head of the Law and Justice Party, called for banning communist artifacts as "symbols of a genocidal system that should be compared to German Nazism." Leftists and others who support democracy and truth take comfort from invalidation last year by the European Court of Human Rights of similar Hungarian legislation passed in 1994. Equating communists to fascists is the "Big Lie," they say.
Honduras: Business as usual
Harris Corporation, a multinational, Florida based information technology company - with $5 billion in annual income - last week secured a $38 million, five year contract to run U.S. military "command, control, communications, and computer" systems at the Soto Cano Air Base in Honduras. Harris operations will be supporting the command structure for all U. S. military operations in Central America, in the process "advancing new visions of the U.S. Government...reducing sources of conflict ... and promoting partnership." "Initiatives to thwart narcotics trafficking and other transnational threats" are contemplated. Analyst Arnold August writing on globalresearch.ca, suggests that despite popular resistance against the June 28 right wing coup and struggle for a constituent assembly, "for imperialism, it is business as usual."
Palestine: Unions reassert support for boycott
The British-based Jewish Chronicle last month threw the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions Movement into turmoil when it reported the Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions no longer supported the boycott movement, which it had backed since its formation in 2005. BDS leaders sought clarification from union leaders from across the Palestinian political spectrum. All three Palestinian labor federations promptly reaffirmed their support: PGFTU -Gaza and six subsidiary PGFTU unions; the Palestinian Federation of Independent Trade Unions; the General Union of Palestinian Workers, Palestine's largest labor federation. A statement on bdsmovement.net applauds "the spectacular growth of the BDS movement, particularly among major international trade unions" in South Africa, Great Britain, Ireland, Brazil, Canada and France.
Nigeria: Rice contamination, corporate control
Greenpeace reported recently that German-based Bayer Company is campaigning to disseminate its LL62 rice product throughout the global south. Bayer, with global sales totaling $46.3 billion in 2008, modified LL62 to survive its herbicide product Glufosinate, sales of which skyrocket once LL62 takes root. Environmental Rights Action recently did tests documenting contamination by the engineered Bayer rice in Nigerian and Ghanaian seed rice imports. ERA Executive Director Nnimmo Bassey announced corroboration of the findings in a U.S. court last month, when producers charged LL62 contamination of their plantings. Bassey castigated the government for not providing advisories, according to the Umoya.org report. Glufosinate poses a serious human toxicity threat, Greenpeace charges.
Malaysia: Socialists map course
The annual conference organized last month by the Socialist Party of Malaysia (PSM) attracted 200 people for discussions on opposition prospects. In an "electoral tsunami" last year the Peoples Alliance Party won five out of 13 states, and the PSM, founded in 1998 and allowed to register as a party only last year, took one seat in Parliament. Party membership grew 400 percent between 2003 and 2008. The PSM's seven-point manifesto, accessible on its web site, parti-sosialis.org, opposes neo-liberal policies, "free trade" agreements, corruption, and racial and religious discrimination, while defending worker rights, adequate housing and the environment.
Cuba: Defense exercises take place
The fifth "Exercise Bastion" since 1980 ended on Nov. 29, Cuba's National Day of Defense. The exercises this year were remarkable for focus on economic and social chaos as a prelude to enemy attacks. Personnel took part from military command and control structures and the Interior Ministry. Response to presumed enemy subversion and destabilization efforts consumed two days. A third day was taken up by defending against hypothetical enemy air and naval attacks, reported La Jornada.
Cubadebate took the occasion to survey U.S. security analysts' views as to threats posed by Cuba. They include terrorism, cyber-terrorism, biological terrorism and uncontrolled migration.

Theoria: A Journal of Social and Political Theory Special Issue on 'Freedom and Power'
Call for Papers Date:

Announcement ID:
Ever since Livy proclaimed that 'freedom is to be in one's own power', if not from a long time before, the relationship between freedom and power has been an enduring concern of political theorists. It has withstood even Berlin's sharp distinctions between seemingly irreconcilable kinds of freedom and the subsequent diversion via debates about 'negative, 'positive' and 'republican' freedom. With greater historical purview it is possible to see that the fault line between various competing conceptions of freedom is clearest with regard to how social and political theorists conceive of the relationship between freedom and power. While some thinkers have opposed freedom and power, arguing that liberty can only be truly attained free from power and domination (republicans) or in the absence of external impediments imposed by other human beings (liberals), others have identified a close and intriguing link between them, especially in the sphere of politics. A motley crew of radicals, Marxists and conservatives occupy the latter camp, including Livy, Machiavelli, Montaigne, Marx, Nietzsche and Foucault. Moreover, those in the former camp tend to think of freedom in formal and abstract terms, while proponents of the latter eschew this now normal tendency in political philosophy and instead think of freedom in fully substantive, concrete and even materialist terms. (Hobbes is an unusual and unique figure as his account of freedom inspires members of both parties in this debate.)
Several important questions arise concerning freedom and power:- • What is freedom?
• What is the relationship between freedom and power?
• How, if at all, are freedom and domination related?
• Is there a categorical or insurmountable conflict between freedom and discipline?
• Does freedom depend upon being free from interference or being able to achieve certain desired or desirable goals or ends?
• Are these two conditions – freedom from interference and the ability or power to achieve certain ends – related in some sense? • Can we measure freedom, and, if so, how?
• What forms or degrees of freedom are possible in modern representative democracies?
• How does representation affect freedom?
• Is our freedom dependent on the power of our representatives?
• How does the degradation of the planetary environment affect our views on freedom?
• Given the dire need for self-control and self-discipline, especially regarding levels of consumption in the developed North, is the concept of freedom even still relevant?
• Does the concept of freedom need to be reconfigured to accommodate constraint, austerity and self-control? If so, how?
• What do the experiences of relatively recently liberated states teach us about freedom?
• What is the relationship between freedom and power in the 'Global South'?
• How, if at all, does poverty affect freedom?
The editors of Theoria ask contributors to think about these questions in and of themselves and in the light of the various arguments from any of the proponents of the various conceptions of freedom. These can be written about in term of furthering our understanding of the nature of personal and political freedom within modern representative democracies or in order to develop novel arguments that propose conceptions of freedom for different possible future political organizations and forms of power. While abstract theoretical insights and arguments are welcome, we urge contributors to try and think about freedom and power within and between particular political contexts, especially within the 'Global South', where often freedom is a nascent and precarious achievement, and sometimes only for the lucky few, and between the 'Global South' and the 'Global North', either in relational or comparative terms. Given the changing power relations that exist within and between existing states, there is also much room for utopian thought regarding new forms of freedom in as yet un-experienced contexts of political power and moral conflict.

Posted on 02/02/2005 8:47:59 PM PST by NYC GOP Chick
By Gail Mitchell
LOS ANGELES (Billboard) - Following a suicide attempt, R&B singer Houston has gouged out his eye while on an overseas performance junket.
A brief statement was released Wednesday by his Capitol Records label, saying only, "Our thoughts and prayers are with Houston during this tragic time."
According to sources, the singer first attempted to jump out of a London hotel window last Thursday. Prevented from doing so by his security staff, Houston was locked in his room, at which time the injury occurred. No additional details as to his current condition or whereabouts have been disclosed.
Featured in a McDonald's commercial, Houston's 2004 hit single "I Like That" peaked at No. 11 on the Hot 100 singles chart. The song also featured Chingy, Nate Dogg and I-20.
Houston's debut album, "It's Already Written," has sold 208,000 units to date, according to Nielsen SoundScan, having peaked at No. 14 on The Billboard 200.
Koolaid OD?
never heard of him. I'll keep an eye out!
Career move?
I'll keep an eye out for your updates........
No comments yet on Houston wanting to be the next Ray Charles?!
Sheesh... artists and their body parts - first you have Van Gogh and the ear, then it's MJ and his facial mutilation... now this. Stop the insanity!!
(if I had no eyes, I could not enjoy my daily need of Freep - now THAT would be a sad, sad thing!)
The eyes have it!
LOL! I've never heard of him, either, or Chingy, or the others.
My first thought when I read "Houston" was Whitney.
"Houston, we have a problem..."
Me, Myself, and Eye. (I'm having way too much fun with this!)
Maybe he was thinking of that Cat Stevens/Yousef whateverhislastnameisnow song...
"And if I ever lose my eyes....."
Waiter, there's an eye in my soup!
Talk about an Eyesore!
At least he didn't leave his heart in San Francisco.
Let's hope Nancy Pelosi doesn't offer to donate one of hers.
Out vile jelly?
I spy with my little eye...........
If he starts hanging out with Andre Rison, Andre better up his fire insurance policy.
"(I'm having way too much fun with this!)"
We all are, this is just too deliciously awful, and we can't help ourselves. I can't imagine wanting to gouge your eye out.
So did I -- especially given her drug problems!
So I've noticed! :)
I knew eye could count on you for such punny posts!
And Sammy Davis Sayeth: An Eye For An Eye....Sinatra 4:16
Eye just can't help myself! It sounds soo unreal!
This doesn't seem very funny, but then I was never into vitreous humor.
I bet you're rethinking that one right about now.
Ah yes, all hail the new Left Eye!
Someday he'll wish somebody lens him another. Maybe one of his pupils will help? Sorry, too much Pinot Noir tonight. Didn't mean to lash out.
Jeepers, creepers, why'd he tear out his peeper?
If someone is suicidal, why would anyone leave them alone!
just OUCH!
Check out the competition in #35!
To avoid being taken out with them?
Sad story, really. This guy was abused as a pupil, and was so brow-beaten that he eventually had to lash out.
I still refuse to root for the Falcons, even if they do have Michael Vick as their QB.
I'm glad they lost!
Yeah, you Atlanta FReepers heard me.
Haven't liked 'em since Reeves was there.
Just damn.
If you want on the list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...
Aaack! My eyes! My eyes!
Pics of Teddy are a number one reason to gouge and scratch my eyes out, with Hillary! a very close second. Watch, someone's gonna post the butt-shaking shot of her.
Sir, you get my nomination for post of the day! Vitreous humor!!!! Love it!!!
You asked for it. Threw down the gauntlet!
Have some more drugs, Houston.

UPOVROM GTITM Plant Variety Database 2008/01, GTI Jouve Retrieval Software, Citation for Scaevola `Wesscaetob`, one page. cited by other.
A new and distinct cultivar of Scaevola plant named `Wesscaetob`, characterized by its compact and mounded plant habit; freely branching habit; freely flowering habit; and violet blue-colored flowers.
It is claimed:
1. A new and distinct Scaevola plant named `Wesscaetob` as illustrated and described.
Botanical designation: Scaevolaaemula.
Cultivar denomination: `Wesscaetob`.
The present invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Scaevola, botanically known as Scaevola aemula, and hereinafter referred to by the name `Wesscaetob`.
The new Scaevola is a product of a planned breeding program conducted by the Inventor in Sudlohn, Germany The objective of the breeding program is to create new compact and freely-flowering Scaevola cultivars.
The new Scaevola originated from a cross-pollination made by the Inventor in Sudlohn, Germany in 2003 of the Scaevola aemula cultivar Brilliant, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 12,099, as the female, or seed, parent with a proprietaryselection of Scaevola aemula identified as code number 03P61, not patented, as the male, or pollen, parent. The cultivar Wesscaetob was discovered and selected by the Inventor as a flowering plant within the progeny of the stated cross-pollination in acontrolled environment in Sudlohn, Germany in 2004.
Asexual reproduction of the new Scaevola by terminal cuttings in a controlled environment in Sudlohn, Germany since 2004, has shown that the unique features of this new Scaevola are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
The cultivar Wesscaetob has not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment and cultural practices such as temperature and light intensity without, however, anyvariance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of `Wesscaetob`. These characteristics in combination distinguish `Wesscaetob` as a new and distinct cultivar of Scaevola: 1. Compact andmounded plant habit. 2. Freely branching habit. 3. Freely flowering habit. 4. Violet blue-colored flowers.
Plants of the new Scaevola can be compared to plants of the female parent, the cultivar Brilliant. Plants of the new Scaevola differ from plants of the cultivar Brilliant in the following characteristics: 1. Plants of the new Scaevola are morecompact than plants of the cultivar Brilliant. 2. Plants of the new Scaevola have smaller leaves than plants of the cultivar Brilliant. 3. Plants of the new Scaevola have smaller flowers than plants of the cultivar Brilliant.
Plants of the new Scaevola can be compared to plants of the male parent selection. Plants of the new Scaevola differ from plants of the male parent selection in the following characteristics: 1. Plants of the new Scaevola have finer branchesthan plants of the male parent selection. 2. Plants of the new Scaevola have longer leaves than plants of the male parent selection. 3. Plants of the new Scaevola have larger flowers than plants of the male parent selection.
Plants of the new Scaevola can be compared to plants of the Scaevola aemula cultivar Fancy, disclosed in U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,867. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Sudlohn, Germany, plants of the new Scaevola differed from plants ofthe cultivar Fancy in the following characteristics: 1. Plants of the new Scaevola were more compact and mounding than plants of the cultivar Fancy. 2. Plants of the new Scaevola had smaller leaves than plants of the cultivar Fancy. 3. Plants of thenew Scaevola had smaller flowers than plants of the cultivar Fancy. 4. Flowers of plants of the new Scaevola and the cultivar Fancy differed in flower color as flowers of plants of the cultivar Fancy had a white-colored band at the base of the petals.
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new Scaevola, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightlyfrom the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the colors of the new Scaevola. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of `Wesscaetob` grown in a container.
The photographs and following observations, measurements and values describe plants grown in Sudlohn, Germany in containers in a glass-covered greenhouse during the summer under conditions which closely approximate commercial production. Duringthe production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from about 20.degree. C. to 25.degree. C., night temperatures ranged from about 16.degree.C. to 18.degree.C. and light levels ranged from about 3,000 lux to about 50,000 lux. Plants were aboutfour months old when the photographs and the description were taken. In the description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 2001 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.

—To evaluate the relationships between dietary intake of carotenoids and vitamins A, C, and E and the risk of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the leading cause of irreversible blindness among adults.
—The multicenter Eye Disease Case-Control Study.
—Five ophthalmology centers in the United States.
—A total of 356 case subjects who were diagnosed with the advanced stage of AMD within 1 year prior to their enrollment, aged 55 to 80 years, and residing near a participating clinical center. The 520 control subjects were from the same geographic areas as case subjects, had other ocular diseases, and were frequency-matched to cases according to age and sex.
Main Outcome Measures.
—The relative risk for AMD was estimated according to dietary indicators of antioxidant status, controlling for smoking and other risk factors, by using multiple logistic-regression analyses.
—A higher dietary intake of carotenoids was associated with a lower risk for AMD. Adjusting for other risk factors for AMD, we found that those in the highest quintile of carotenoid intake had a 43% lower risk for AMD compared with those in the lowest quintile (odds ratio, 0.57; 95% confidence interval, 0.35 to 0.92; P for trend=.02). Among the specific carotenoids, lutein and zeaxanthin, which are primarily obtained from dark green, leafy vegetables, were most strongly associated with a reduced risk for AMD (P for trend=.001). Several food items rich in carotenoids were inversely associated with AMD. In particular, a higher frequency of intake of spinach or collard greens was associated with a substantially lower risk for AMD (P for trend<.001). The intake of preformed vitamin A (retinol) was not appreciably related to AMD. Neither vitamin E nor total vitamin C consumption was associated with a statistically significant reduced risk for AMD, although a possibly lower risk for AMD was suggested among those with higher intake of vitamin C, particularly from foods.
—Increasing the consumption of foods rich in certain carotenoids, in particular dark green, leafy vegetables, may decrease the risk of developing advanced or exudative AMD, the most visually disabling form of macular degeneration among older people. These findings support the need for further studies of this relationship.(JAMA. 1994;272:1413-1420)

Adonis Stevenson Stops Noe Gonzalez in Two Rounds
Bell Centre, Monteal - Adonis Stevenson (18-1, 15KOs) stopped Noe Gonzalez (28-2, 20KOs) in two rounds to walk away with the IBF Inter-Continental, WBC Silver, NABO and NABA super middleweight titles.
Stevenson was aggressive in the first round, but in the second he really let his hands go. Stevenson stunned Gonzalez with a combination of punches at close range, and let his hands go with Gonzalez pinned against the ropes. The referee jumped in to wave it off, but the stoppage seemed to be a little too fast.

Making sure your logs work
Might as well do it properly – rsyslog.
I was looking at my server backups the other day and suddenly realized I had no backups of the logfiles – you know, all the stuff in /var/log/ that you ignore until something breaks. Also, I realized I had no idea whether logging was actually working, so maybe I should go about fixing this.

The Visual FX Mastery and Character Rendering of Greg Strasz
The sky cracked open, spilling light against the dusted air and silvery layers of the ancient creature's luminous membrane. That may describe the image above, but even more it describes the revelation you're about to receive into how some of the coolest visual effects are created in film and the process behind it all. Greg Strasz works in film. I would go as far as to say that he is film, or rather the process behind it, capturing the depths of moving making from initial project research and previz to modeling, texturing and our favorite, 3D rendering. We caught up with Greg to get a better glimpse of his 3D renderings and find out more about how he uses KeyShot.
Greg Strasz
For the last few years I've been keeping an eye on all the real time rendering solutions but after testing Keyshot everything changed for me. From the beginning of a project, in early pre-production, I cooperate closely with the director, the VFX supervisor and the director of photography to establish the visual feel and the specific aesthetic needs of the project. Keeping an eye on small details, which give great value to a project, I art direct and supervise the creative part of the vfx shots throughout the full production process. My name is Greg Strasz and I've worked on movies such as Red Baron, 2012 and Anonymous.
From Concept to Look Development
When I opened the Keyshot demo for the first time, I realized that I had a very powerful tool with a huge potential in my hands. After a few days I was very impressed by how quickly I could produce concepts and pre production renderings. I decided to contact Thomas Teger from Luxion and asked him If I could join the alpha and beta team to explore the potential of this great product further.
In the production environment, while establishing the visual feel, KeyShot became for me an indispensable tool for concept, shot and look development. If a 3D asset requires relighting or material changes I can just drop it in Keyshot and show it to the vfx supervisor or directly to the director. They are immediately able to see updates and give me feedback. With this step I have a good base to develop the shot without having to wait for the non-real time renders. This is a unique step in the production to save time and money. All these changes are easily transferrable into the CG and compositing pipelines.
Testing 3D Scans with KeyShot
I also used Keyshot to test 3D scans. While the 3D department was cleaning up the scan data and starting to rebuild the geometry at the same time I was using Keyshot to have a quick preview on which I could already develop the basic lighting to show the possible look. Often this first render from the scan data ends up as the starting point of my look development work.
Test HDRI's with KeyShot
On a project like 2012 with 1315 VFX shots (half the length of the movie) you get many different teams or even post production company's shooting HDRI environment maps. To test HDRI files taken on set I integrate project assets and open them in Keyshot. To do a technical check for the 32-bits/channel HDR images you will end up using a paint tool or compositing software, but Keyshot allows me to get immediately a visual feedback.
Real-time Subsurface Scattering
Realistic character rendering is a challenge for every artist, and if it comes to real-time subsurface scattering then everything gets more complicated. Not in KeyShot! You will be able to visualize your work in real-time and to bring it to a higher level without waiting long for the renders. This is not only productive but also allows you to experiment more. Different lighting conditions and a wide range of materials can be tested very easily and, of course, in a very short time. Changing the camera, moving it around, is just a matter of a click. My wish for Keyshot subsurface scattering material is epidermal (top-most layer of the skin), subdermal (level underneath the skin), specular, glossy and displacement maps. Let's see how Luxion will surprise us with that in the future. Keyshot will not completely replace non-real time rendering, but can bring an incredible value into your production.
The Spectacular Steampunk Design Sweetness of Bill Gould
Sure, this isn't the first time we've featured Steampunk style renderings here on the KeyShot blog, but it is the first time you'll see a Steampunk Table Designer and KeyShot user Bill Gould is known for his small medical device design and the Edimobile Portable Talking Box he displayed last He happened to be exhausted one evening from a difficult medical
Ferrite - Interactive Liquid Sculpture. Incredibly Cool. Rendered and Animated in KeyShot.
How cool would it be if you could harness the invisible waveforms of the world's magnetic power in a small vessel that sits atop your desk? Then, what if you could shock people into gum-swallowing awe by manipulating the liquid inside with magnets you've implanted beneath your fingertips… Perhaps, that last bit goes a little too far, but it's certainly feasible, as is

It's time.
Our Storm King Stout spent the summer in bourbon barrels from Jim Beam and Heaven Hill Distilleries, and has finally emerged as Dark Intrigue. (It's like Clark Kent going into a phone booth and coming out as Superman, only more delicious and less crime-fighty.)
Dark Intrigue will be released here at the Downingtown retail location on Nov. 23, a day we are calling Dark Wednesday. Not only will you be able to purchase the dark and intriguing boozy beverage, but you'll be part of Victory history. While this is our second release of Dark Intrigue we are also planning it to be our last. Get it now before it goes away forever.
Here's what you need to know about Dark Wednesday:
• Dark Intrigue will be available by the bottle and by the case from the retail shop at our Downingtown brewery and brewpub.
• It will go on sale when our retail shop opens at 11:30 a.m. You are welcome to begin lining up earlier than that, and we anticipate that Dark Intrigue fans will start arriving around 9 a.m.
• Each person will be limited to one case of Dark Intrigue, no exceptions.
• The cost will be $15 per bottle, $180 per case. (There are 12 bottles per case.)
• We know you're excited to drink your newly purchased Dark Intrigue, and we're excited to have you try it, but under no circumstances can you open a bottle of Dark Intrigue in the parking lot. Pennsylvania has very strict open container laws, and drinking beer in our parking lot is illegal. If you open it in the parking lot, it will be confiscated. We don't want to do that, but we have to follow the law of the land. So please, wait until you get home to open it so we can all avoid any issues.
• Like all beer purchased at our retail shop, it is not permitted to be opened in the restaurant. We welcome and encourage you to stay for lunch after you purchase your Dark Intrigue, but you will not be able to drink the Dark Intrigue that you bought in retail with your lunch. We will have limited quantities of Dark Intrigue available on draft for you to enjoy with your meal. (Dark Intrigue is not available for growler fills.)
*BONUS* You may win some fun Victory swag while attending the Dark Wednesday release. We will be drawing numbers every 10 minutes between 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. to the enthusiasts in line. If your number is called, you'll be going home with extra Victory goodies!

... I will rage. It was just a horrible feature and should be gone. Or have "Hard-Core" modes with no lock-on. It ruined the original for me.
Mormon006 posted...It probably will have lock-on. So many people enjoyed it... I'm sure it's returning. You don't HAVE to use it.
But everyone else will, why would I want to handicap myself? Like I said, have some sort of hardcore mode if you MUST have it in. Also, how can you say this is a hardcore game when you can get on massive killstreaks without even pointing at the screen? ErrorSupply proved it works, everyone who tried it knows it works. Or point at the middle and lock-on, insta kill streak unless you have mental issues. Just PLEASE give me an option to play against people online and have Lock-On disabled! It took all the competitiveness out of the game!
Or, make it so they can freely move around your screen, but when they reach the edge the camera will loosely follow them. That way you still have to do some aiming.
Metal_In_Flames posted...Tony said that lock-on might or might not be in the game, however he supports the idea of a hardcore mode where you can't use lock on (if it's in)
Yea, I saw that on HVS-Network.
It's a good sign.
You are not allowed to request a sticky.

Roughly 460 terror suspects are currently detained at the American prison camps in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. To protest what they say is abusive treatment and their negligible legal access (some of them might be guilty, but there's scarcely a court of law to prove it), detainees have waged hunger strikes and made suicide attempts, none of which were successful until earlier this month. Three detainees hanged themselves.
Lawyers say misery drove them to do it. The US military considered it an act of warfare, with top officials notoriously describing it as a ``good PR move to draw attention" and ``to further the jihadi cause." Truth or spin? Who can say? But if ``The Road to Guantanamo" is even a tad accurate , I'm inclined to think they succumbed to despair.
The film dramatizes the true, gruesome plight of a group of young men who wound up detained at the camps. Ruhel Ahmed, Shafiq Rasul, Asif Iqbal, and Monir Ali head from the town of Tipton in the British Midlands, to Pakistan, where one of them is to be married.
The actual detainees narrate the picture in documentary cutaways, but the actors playing them -- Farhad Harun, Riz Ahmed, Afran Usman, and Waqar Siddiqui -- make a jovial quartet. Under happier circumstances, directors Michael Winterbottom and Mat Whitecross might have refashioned ``A Hard Day's Night" around them.
But these are different times. The trip happens in the weeks after 9/11, during the United States-led invasion of Afghanistan. At the urging of a cleric they overhear preaching at a mosque, they go to Afghanistan with the ambiguous intention of ``helping out." The boys hit Kandahar for a day, then, after an eternal van ride, Kabul. Amid the air strikes, it dawns on them that they're not benefiting anyone. How could they? They're tired, unarmed, and dislocated.
They decide to head back to Pakistan, losing Monir somewhere along the way. (He's never found.) The van that Shafiq, Ruhel, and Asif hop into takes them, instead, to a crowded Taliban outpost in the Afghan hinterlands, where, upon the surrender of Taliban fighters, they're turned over, along with dozens of other non-Taliban men, to the Northern Alliance. After a grueling day-and-a-half trip in a huge, dark, and stifling storage container, they're handed off to the US military.
In American (and eventually British) custody, the men are treated more viciously. Sacks are pulled over their heads , and their arms are shackled behind their backs, as they're locked up first at Camp X-Ray , then at Camp Delta, where they're kept outside in cages like dogs at a kennel. Ruhel calls it a zoo, but a zoo at least allows visitors. Detainees' senses are deprived (goggles stay on even in the shower), and the indefinite stay forbids prayer, standing, and talking to your neighbor. In all, we get a jarring sense of the extreme horrors committed at Abu Ghraib and in Haditha.
Watching these and other humiliations, a viewer's awareness of the way the film switches between the actors and the interviews evaporates. The prolific Winterbottom, whose recent projects (``9 Songs," ``Tristram Shandy") have been eccentric excursions, creates a simple and brisk descent into hell. And the immediacy gets under your skin.
Only when the American s and British arrive, with their theatrical demands, does self-consciousness fog up the film's naturalist ic facade. The actors playing the interrogators, especially the American ones, go for a stock villainy: ``You're Al Qaeda! . . . Now tell me where Osama bin Laden is!" One gratuitously smokes a cigarette during his interrogation.
Another condescends during hers: ``I come from Washington ," she announces, as if she'd just gotten off a flying saucer. Her session with one detainee is outlandish in a Nancy Grace sort of way. She shows him unintelligibly grainy video footage of an Al Qaeda rally and tells him to identify himself, which, of course, he can't. ``I can see you!" she says.
``The Road to Guantanamo" makes it inarguably clear why these men need lawyers. They're never charged with any crime, yet they're serving a harsh sentence. Due process here seems like a pipe dream. But nobody falls for the military's obvious entrapment. They remain pretty strong throughout, especially Shafiq, who, in a great moment, performs a rap about his detention to an increasing ly uncomfortable American soldier. The film makes sure that we never lose sight of the men's humanity, even though they're repeatedly robbed of it. The Tipton Three, as Shafiq, Ruhel, and Asif were called in the British press, also say that their Guantanamo experience made them better Muslims.
As strongly as the movie argues that the prison should be closed, if only as a matter of remorseful political symbolism, ``Road to Guantanamo" is even more chilling as a snapshot of how the world changed for average Arab and Muslim men after 9/11. The film's insistence on the men's innocence is matter of fact. But it's also an urgent corrective to the suspicious eye the movies so often cast on Arabs and Islam. I don't know what the US military's brass would say, but that is good PR.

With Darrelle Revis' contract talks moving on at a snail-like pace, the Jets are moving on without their star corner.
Monday night's game against the New York Giants featured two new Jets cornerbacks in Antonio Cromartie and Kyle Wilson. Both looked solid without Revis in the lineup.
Their performance and potential provide some leverage for the Jets as these talks continue. In reality, how much worse is New York without Revis?
Yes, there's no doubt that Revis is almost the league's undisputed top corner. He didn't earn the nickname "Revis Island" for nothing as he shut down top receivers time and time again last season.
But he's just one guy on a very talented Jets team. In the end, the Jets can succeed without him. Here are five reasons why.

word doing the rounds is that Golovkin and Geale will meet in the summer. so if Geale's the man and Golovkin takes his stuff off him, i guess Quillin will have no more objections to fighting GGG.

Man Kid Chocolate is bugging. To think that he is scared of GGG is ridiculous though, this is a guy who was getting it on in the streets well before he got it on in the ring. Hopefully the fight does happen one day.

This is awesome. First he refuses a title shot and now Golovkin is a nobody.
Out of curiosity, how many showtime events/HBO has he headlined as the main event?

at first he's talking about money. Then he starts talking about Daniel Geal and his WBA title. Well, someone needs to inform Peter that Geale was stripped of that title and it now belongs to Golovkin. Golovkin is the sole WBA Middleweight champion.
I just single handedly destroyed Quillin's entire argument & logic.
Using his own words and logic, Golovkin should be the first person on his list to fight besides Martinez. Period.

Golovkin might fight Pirog in June. I've also heard that Pirog was making a comeback in March, possibly on HBO, so maybe that's the fight they're building up.
Perhaps the winners can face each other by the end of the year and we could have a small tourney in our hands...
All time great

Quillin asks "what is it worth to me"? The answer is a lot.
For one, a win would put Quillin as the top contender in the MW division for a shot at Martinez.
Two, Golovkin is an HBO fighter. A win for Quillin could get himself that lucrative HBO deal that any pro fighter would want. And he would increase his fanbase too.
Last, Golovkin made $350K in his last fight as a co-feature, Quillin hasn't come close to making $350K in any of his fights. He would get the biggest payday of his career and the biggest opportunity of his career.
So I just don't get the bull**** he's spittin in that interview. Beating GGG would do wonders for his career. ****in fight the best to get to the top. Quit cherry picking and waiting by the phone for a payday.
