Windows 8 Enterprise RTM build 9200 has been leaked on internet and is downloadable. The leaked edition of Windows 8 Enterprise is a non-bootable one which you can also install using the setup.exe file only and it is the x64 version.
The leak has been done by a Russian and x64 version of Windows 8 Enterprise version is available for download. The leak has occured short after the official announcement of Windows 8 RTM milestone by Microsoft.
It is strictly against our policies to provide links to illegal or pirated content but, yes you can find the links for download on the internet if, you search.
You can take a look at the leaked images of Windows 8 RTM installation process and new background pattern of Start Screen.
The download links seems a bit fishy as the size is far more less than the actual one. The size is also less than the Windows 8 Release Preview x86 while x64 was almost twice.
This leaked version of Windows 8 Enterprise RTM is the one without the Media Player but, it contains the Windows 8 go feature.

text: As we reported yesterday Destiny's Child are releasing a new compilation album of ballads amptly titled Love Songs which will feature their first new recording in 8 years. 'Nuclear', a new record produced by Pharrell Williams (who Beyonce has been working with on her new album) and was co-written by DC-3's Michelle Williams. On first listen this may sound a little underwhelming to most and being brutally honest – it should have been better. But that said – I don't hate it. Pharrell's production could have been a lot stronger but even his simple drum loops sound better than most – I would have loved to hear more of those Neptunian chords that quietly pulsate in the back. Most of all though – I'm happy to be hearing DC-3 harmonies again – for now, that'll do.

Thank you Ahmed and Nicola, these explanations were very helpful!

You should interpret the results like this: the most efficient units
operates at an efficiency level which is about 1/1.44=70 of its
theorerical maximum. While the numbers are economically surprising (you
can't believe that a firm survives working at one seventh of its
efficiency level --- but some niche car builders as Ferrari or
Lamborghini may not be driven to efficiency by market forces as car
builders in more competitive market segments - as Wolkswagen or Ford),
the concept is not. Firms usually have some inefficiencies (they are
called X-inefficiency). Those who appear to you as inefficiencies are
slack resources that firms usually need to face environmental
changes/external shocks/unexpected events.
If you really want to rescale, you need to divide each TE by 1.439743,
as suggested by Ahmed, not to substract .439743 (remember that TE are
exponentiated coefficients)! Then you can interpret the resulting
coefficients as units producing their output below the *most* efficient

Jonny Walker has been riding since the age of nine. He began by competing in the British Schoolboy Trials Championship, which he won twice, and maintained a top-three ranking until he was 17. Jonny was also the youngest-ever winner of The Pinhard Prize, an accolade awarded to under-21s who are deemed to be the highest achievers.
In 2008 and 2009, Jonny competed in the European and Junior World Trials Championships, but after several years in Trials, he hankered after a different challenge. Buying his first motocross bike led him to try the sport of Enduro after a friend suggested he should have a go.
Despite a lack of experience in his first full Enduro season, he enjoyed considerable success. He had registered impressive first-time results in the World Indoor Cup, Hell's Gate and the British Enduro Championship, where he invariably finished in the top five until he eventually topped the podium.
Jonny regularly wins major global events, with the Red Bull Romaniacs, Red Bull Hare Scramble and Hell's Gate titles to his name in 2015. He also took third at the 2015/16 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship.Read more

T.I. - Memories Back Then Lyrics (Feat. Kendrick Lamar)
T.I. – Memories Back Then Lyrics (Feat. Kendrick Lamar, B.o.B & Kris Stephens)
In my apartment a long time ago,
I knew a bad bitch but she was kinda slow
Still gave it up when there's a few of us
She let me finger fuck her on the school bus
We use to cut school with her and run trains
She wanna hang with us we want one thang
Just penetrating that throat dog
She choke on it like smoke dog
But whenever I fuck her my re up
In a dice game i go see her
She give me enough to buy a quarter ounce
And blow a blunt of that reefer
She use to buy a nigga new sneakers
Pay the bill on my beeper
Just she can page me for the 69
And I know what time to go freak her
Then one day I just ask her
Why you always giving ass out
I mean damn even hoes get paid all you do is get laid
This shit don't add up
She said Tip all I wanna do is feel is loved
Even if I know it ain't real love
Even if I know a nigga only finna hit it
Then never call back I still fuck
And that fucked up cuz she so trill
I need some she go steal
When the trap hot and police ride
Nigga guess where we go chill
Bout 4 years she held down
My 4 pound till it go down
I remember shorty she stay down
I won't say her name cuz she married now
When the lights go out and I'm in my bed
I think of all the madness in my head
All of the things that I did back then
Oh when I'm in my bed
I think of all the memories I've had
All of the things that I did back then
She would always turn heads so she fall through
She would always make moves how a boss do
And she never gave any nigga the time of day
She the chick all the niggas trying to talk to
But when it came to me she had a thing for me
When we kick it she roll up the weed for me
And we both cut class post up in the cut steady
Just to watch and just to see if the police coming
We got close over time her and I
Right around the time that I first got signed
Come to think about it I was bout 17
I ain't even have license couldn't even drive
I was going back and forth with each flight
Another show after show each night
She started getting so suspicious of other bitches
She go through my phone and we fight
Talking bout time between the two
Wasn't really much more that we could do
Wasn't really much space for us she stay down
Every tour she see me do
But I guess one night I had a few huh
One night I had a few right
This little chick that caught my eye
I told her hurry up meet me at the room
And no I didn't have a contraceptive
With my common sense neglected
Two months later next thing I know
I get a text that say I'm pregnant
And you can almost bet she kept it
And that's the reason that you left me
On the top of all that wasn't even mine
I went and got paternity tested damn
When the lights go out and I'm in my bed
I think of all the madness in my head
All of the things that I did back then
Oh when I'm in my bed
I think of all the memories I've had
All of the things that I did back then
Wait hold up is that you
With them big old thighs after school
J305 and gave me high five when I say I'm in high pursuit
You say I won't ride till Kendrick drive
A new Monte carlo that cruise
And that shot my pride try to improv
But no freestyle I never knew
You looking for the nigga with the tallest fetti
You over looking at every nigga that ain't quite ready
To make it rain on you like you bout to break a levy
Hold up, that pussy petty
Yeah your nails did your hair did
Your cell phone is selfish
It only got numbers that come with a hummer
A new pre Madonna I smelt it
Tried to make you my ho
Tried to make some time ho
But I ain't got the time or the patience to stop and wait in line ho
Her dreams holds Versace she fall for Armani
Only deal with rich niggas
Fuck you and Mitt Romney
I'm grown now I'm on my own now
I'm pop pop popping change my phone now
When I get home now I got op op options
Fast forward wait is that you
With them big old thighs after school
And yo 3 kids and 3 baby daddies and same car note that's overdue
I know
When the lights go out and I'm in my bed
I think of all the madness in my head
All of the things that I did back then
Oh when I'm in my bed
I think of all the memories I've had
All of the things that I did back then

Harvey Salinas murder trial Day 2
[auth] The second day of the jury trial for Harvey Salinas began with a review of the crime scene investigation. Salinas is charged with second-degree murder for the July 6 shooting of Arnulfo Villela Jr.
Crime Scene Technician Laverne Amir told the jury about processing the scene and locating the shell casings which stretched from 815 E. Hendricks to 827 E. Hendricks. She reported finding six 9 mm, six .40 caliber and four .22 shell casings, and two bullet fragments.
Defense attorney Luke Ragsdale asked if the shell casings had been fingerprinted and the bullet fragments weighed to ascertain their size. She said they had not.
Amir also participated in search warrants at several addresses. During the searches, the RPD found a rusted 9 mm magazine in a drawer hidden under children's clothes at one location and a .22 caliber revolver.
Technician Russel Whitebear testified that he used a metal detector during one of the searches in an attempt to find a .40 caliber gun that was reported buried in a backyard. The firearm was eventually located in a trash can at one of the residences.
The jurors were active participants in the trial asking questions to clarify the testimony.
The State called Ross Zumwalt, chief medical investigator for the state of New Mexico, to give the findings of Villela's autopsy. Zumwalt said that Villela had been shot seven times. Deputy District Attorney Michael Murphy led Zumwalt through his list of credentials which included nearly 7,000 autopsies. One shot Zumwalt remembered as standing out because the angle of its trajectory, where Villela was shot on the right side of the face near the chin. The bullet ricocheted off the jawbone and exited through the neck. Another shot hit the victim's ribs, went into the chest cavity and pierced the heart. A third caused damage to the lungs. The fourth damaged the liver.
A further three Zumwalt described as superficial, or not life-threatening. Four could be viewed as killing shots. However, he stated that all would have contributed to Villela's death due to blood loss. According to Zumwalt, the bullet fragments indicated that the most serious shots were probably caused by a .22 caliber firearm. He said he did not know what size bullets hit the limbs since those exited the body and left no fragments.
Joseph Lucero, one of the three who were charged with the slaying, took the stand. He admitted that he had pleaded no contest to the lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter. He told the court that he had carried a .22 pistol to Hendricks Street. "Most of us always have a gun. We didn't go to shoot anybody. We just went to beat up who had hurt to his (Isaac Salazar's) cousin."
Lucero said Villela head-butted him and then tried to stab him. He reported shooting Villela six times at point-blank range. "I had my hand in his face when I shot him. … Every time I shot I heard him scream."
He said he could not recall if Salinas had discharged his weapon during the incident.
Murphy asked Lucero about the contradictions in his statements in the District Attorney's office and with the police during the initial investigation when he said that Salinas had fired his 9 mm and continued to fire his weapon after he got in the car. Lucero responded, "I may have said that, but I don't remember it."
In his testimony, lead investigator Detective Kim Northcutt refuted much of what Lucero said. The detective reported that Lucero informed the police that Salinas discharged his weapon and then later threw it into a swimming pool. During cross examination, Northcutt referred to a series of small dents found on the top of the white Honda Accord, which he said were consistent with the damage done as shell casings hit the roof of a vehicle when a person fired a gun out a window.
When Ragsdale inquired if there could be any other cause for the dents, Northcutt replied, "I've never seen hail leave marks on only a portion of the vehicle."

return the full path each time it finds the requested file. Each found file (and path) will be returned in the same order as the paths in the first argument.
which-dirs = $(wildcard $(addsuffix /$2,$1))
It works by adding the name of the file to search for to each element of the path using $(addsuffix). Since $(wildcard) works even if there are no wild card characters present (in which case it acts as a 'file exists' function, returning the name of the file if it is present, or an empty string if not) and $(wildcard) can accept a list of files to look for in which case it searches for each.
A simple use of which-dirs would be to search the PATH for a particular executable. Here's what happens on my machine looking for emacs on the path:
$(warning $(call which-dirs,$(subst :, ,$(PATH)),emacs))
and it outputs:
Makefile:2: /usr/bin/emacs /usr/bin/X11/emacs
Notice that since PATH is a :-separated list I first turned it into a space-separated list for which-dirs by writing $(subst :, ,$(PATH)) .
If I wanted to know the first place that emacs is found on the path I'd just take the first element of the list returned by which-dirs using the GNU Make built-in function $(firstword):
$(warning $(firstword $(call which-dirs,$(subst :, ,$(PATH)),emacs)))
Searching for a list member
That's enough file searching. How about searching to see if a list contains a specific member? GNU Make provides two functions that can be used for that purpose: $(filter) and $(filter-out).
To see if a list contains a specific string the $(filter) function is used. If the string is present in the list then $(filter) returns the string found, if it is not present the the function returns an empty string.
For example, to search the list a b dog c for the word dog and the word cat you can do:
LIST := a b dog c
$(warning $(filter dog,$(LIST)))
$(warning $(filter cat,$(LIST)))
and the output will look like:
Makefile:3: dog
because there is a dog, but no cat.
$(filter) also supports wild cards; well one wild card: %. So to find whether the same list contains any word starting with d you use the pattern d%:
LIST := a b dog c
$(warning $(filter d%,$(LIST)))
and you'll get the following output:
Makefile:3: dog
$(filter-out) performs the opposite of $(filter): it will return an empty string if the pattern is present, and a non-empty string if it is not. For example, to see if the same list does not contain the word cat you use $(filter-out):
LIST := a b dog c
$(warning $(filter-out cat,$(LIST)))
and you'll get the following output:
Makefile:3: a b dog c
Notice that the output here is actually the entire list (because of the way $(filter-out) works). From GNU Make's perspective any non-empty string is 'true' and the empty string is 'false'. The output of both $(filter) and $(filter-out) can be used directly with ifndef or $(if) as a truth-value.
Searching for a sub-string
Lastly, if you are dealing with a string and not a list, you may need to search for a substring. GNU Make has a built-in function $(findstring) for that purpose.
For example, to see if the substring ' og c ' appears in the string ' a b dog c ' do the following:
STRING := a b dog c
$(warning $(findstring og c,$(STRING)))
which will output
Makefile:3: og c
If the string had not been present the function would have returned an empty string. Notice how $(findstring) is treating the same text

Date of Stay: December, 2013
Park is located between Florida 98 and St Rosa Sound with one row of sites backing up to highway 98 one center row and one row backing up to the sound with great views. Park has nice pool area with a small non heated pool. An addition of a hot tub in the pool area would be a welcome addition. The park has a small club house with no range or sink, but hook ups are there so they may be added at sometime in the future. In the back of the club house are two of the restrooms/showers. One thermostat controls both the showers and the club house, this causes uncomfortable temperature in at least one part of the building. The same is true of the second building that houses two of the showers the exercise room and the laundry. There are rumors of a fishing pier being built, but don't know when that may happen. All sites are level concrete with a picnic table provided. Site are nicely landscaped with plants some trees and bark is used as ground cover. Park advertises wifi, but it is weak at best. Park is well maintained by a sometimes friendly and helpful staff. There is a small gift shop located in the office area and the park also sells LP gas. This is a great park for a stop over or an extended stay if you don't mind the traffic noise cool or sometimes cold weather in the winter and lots of wind and rain. We stayed from late November to the first of April.
Date of Stay: November, 2013
Only did a one night stop here. Wasn't someplace I would stay again if there were other choices close by. Sites were scattered about and grass/lime stone we were parked on a hill quite a bit off level without raising coach off wheels to get into level.

Great British Bake Off contestant Iain Watter's Baked Alaska wasn't the only thing to experience a meltdown last night.
Social media went into overdrive as thousands voiced their outrage when his ice cream ended up in the bin - after fellow contestant Diana Beard took it out of the freezer.
Live: Great British Bake Off row - latest news and reaction
Twitter users were quick to show their support for Iain, accusing Diana of sabotage and calling for justice for the bearded baker. In fact, the hashtag #justiceforiain was still trending in the UK this afternoon.
Among his army of supporters were tennis player Laura Robson, actress Adele Silva and Gogglebox's resident vicar, Rev Kate Bottley.
Actor and comedian David Schneider posted this Game of Thrones-style mock up of the tent's inhabitants, one of many memes posted after the episode aired on BBC One.
But there was support for Diana, too. Twitter user Ed Higgs commented: "Iain storms out the tent like a child and Diana's the one who gets all the criticism? No, sorry, not having that."
Show host Sue Perkins and judge Paul Hollywood also came to Diana's defence last night in an attempt to stem the flow of angry tweets.
Meanwhile Mary Berry spoke about the bingate scandal today and Diana has accused the BBC of making her a "scapegoat".
Perhaps we all need to cool down a bit... ice cream, anyone?
Who are you backing over #Bingate?

I see some pretty cool wear patterns on a lot of the jeans here and was looking for a good, solid brand under $60 (or more if that is more important than I realize). The ones I have now are so wide that they don't make a defined square in my pocket, they just make the entire pocket larger. Tips and recommendations, please.

there are actually a LOT of options..most of the GM truck line went to single serpentine belts in the late 80s or very early 90s..and don't forget.. you can get them from the 4.3 V6 also... except you would have to have a V8 damper.. you will have to go to a reversed water pump on some.. there are also probably over 30 kits available to make that change..this is not something i have looked into.. there are lots of ads in the print issues.. and if you come back.. as i see this is several days old.. i might search out some articles on these.. as there are over 40 car and truck magazines on this site.. and many of them will have something on them..

Just a buyer beware... Maybe someone will Google this and it will help them from Bill Smith Buick GMC in Cullman, Alabama.
For what it's worth...
I purchased a 2007 Escalade from Chris Logan, Internet Sales Manager, at Bill Smith Buick GMC. I was told it was in good condition. Chris Logan sold and had the vehicle delivered to me. When the vehicle arrived, it was filthy, had blown head lamp bulbs, and had an exhaust leak. After the excitement wore off, I realized I had been had. The first day, the exhaust manifold heat shield starts dragging the ground...then the belts start squealing. I was told I could bring it in for warranty repair after 30 days to only find out the items needing repair aren't covered. I call to get a refund on the $3500 warranty and they prorate it and offer me $680. It is for now a very expensive drive way decoration. This has been a very embarrassing experience. I'm pretty sure the vehicle wasn't looked over at all before it went out and they were laughing as they left it at my house.

What's Up Tuesday? June 25th
Happy Tuesday music connoisseurs! We've got another light lineup tonight, but hey, we're all just preparing for the shows and festivals to come, right? We have some awesome musicians playing intimate shows this evening at various clubs and bars such as Eddie's Attic, the EARL, 529 and Smith's Olde Bar. All of our faves! Check out the schedule below and see which show you'll be attending!
BMI Presents: Eddie's Songwriter Series @ Eddie's Attic
Featuring Shannon Labrie, Pip and Jon Jonsson.
Jon Jonsson brings his personality to life on stage, putting on an energetic and explosive performance, his mix of John Mayer sentiment and Stevie Wonder soul gets the audience hooked on him instantly. This singer-songwriter is no stranger to the bright lights of the stage, experiencing wild success in his home-base of Iceland; including four singles in the top 30 on Icelandic radio, #1 selling singles on the Icelandic iTunes charts. He was named "Best New Singer" at the 2012 Iceland FM957 People's Choice Awards, and also received the award for "Best New Artist" in 2011 receiving an incredible 60% of the fan votes.
Before you head to the show tonight, check out our Q & A with singer-songwriter, Pip!
The Blank Tapes @ The EARL
The Blank Tapes is now and always has been Matt Adams, a soft-spoken kid from a Southern California suburb who learned to play practically every instrument a good garage band needs, and then started making beautifully idiosyncratic records on his trusty home eight-track because… well, why wait? After a year of low-key shows, he's secured a spot with the Danny Rose booking agency and debuted what he calls the most fully realized version of The Blank Tapes yet—a lean and pristine trio with D.A. Humphrey on bass and Charles on back-to-basics Moe Tucker-style drums, with the kind of three-part harmonies the Wilson brothers used to love.
Check out our exclusive interview with Matt Adams of the Blank Tapes!
Hausu + MORE @ 529
Hausu will be playing at 529 tonight with Georges Bataille Battle Cry and Crater. Celebrating the release of their album, Total, Hausu will be playing an intimate in-store set a Criminal Records before the show. Get more information on Hausu's special performance.
Jack Daniel's Honey Concert Series @ Smith's Olde Bar
A night of live music featuring The Oarsman (8 pm), The Pucketts (9 pm) and SouledOut (10 pm). Enjoy a fun-filled night at Smith's Olde Bar with good food, great drinks and your best friends!

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Currently, this rescue is run by one person and a lot of foster homes. We have full-time jobs like everyone else, so please be patient with us while we return your calls and emails. 99% of the time, we return emails within 48-72 hours.
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

And if you like joy division, I got a lot of more harder stuff like Christian death and those bands.

From We Are Oregon:
Fannie Mae really wants nothing to do with the families that they
evict. They use armed goons and local henchmen to avoid looking
homeowners, like Debbie Austin, in the eye as they throw them out onto
the street.
The bailout funded giant has installed armed private security guards in
the Austins home to keep their house family-free. By our count the
amount spent keeping their home empty has surpassed $10,000. And when
home defenders met with Fannie Mae last month in DC, the mortgage giant
said they weren't able to work with her, but that we should contact
their local representatives. In Oregon, Fannie Mae has passed the buck
on to Eugene attorney Brian D. Cox, the Fannie Mae foreclosure servicer
in Oregon.
On February 5th, 12 community members visited the law office of Brian
Cox to demand that the NE Portland home be returned to the Austins
immediately and permanently. We haven't heard a reply yet. Brian Cox
needs to know that there are hundreds of community members standing with
the Austins! We will hold him and Fannie Mae accountable for the
housing crisis and evictions in our community!
action today! Send a message to Fannie Mae's Oregon foreclosure
servicer Brian Cox and demand that they give Debbie back her house!
Call Brian Cox's office at (541) 683-7151. Here is an example of what you might say:
* Calls are the most effective! *
Hello my name is ________.
May I speak with Brian Cox?
As a neighbor and community member I am outraged at the eviction of
Debbie and Ron Austin and their two children on January 16th, 2013. I am
also appalled that Fannie Mae has so far paid more than $10,000 to have
armed security guarding their home to keep the house empty. I demand
that you, as a representative of Fannie Mae, work with the Austins to
return the home to them immediately and permanently, and that you stop
participating in all evictions. The housing justice community will
continue to stand with the Austin's until they are returned to their
home permanently.
Will you work to return the Austins to their home?
If not Brian Cox -- who at Fannie Mae is empowered to work with the Austins to return their home?
In solidarity,
Angela Macwhinnie

Limited engagement: The Nutracker, A Magical New Play
I's beginning to look a lot like the holidays. How do we know? The Nutracker, A Magical New Play has come to town. The Chicago Sun Times had this to say about this unusual production: "[It's] a riveting reinvention! More nightmare than dream, this production is no simple sugar plum!"
Set in modern day, it's an expansion of the holiday classic. Not a ballet, it's a play about one family's recovery from a surprising loss of a family member and based on the original E.T.A. Hoffmann story.
The play centers on young Clara's journey to save Christmas and bring her broken family back together with the help of a wooden toy.
Staged in the round in the Center's intimate 200-seat Carnival Studio Theater, "this is the rare theatrical environment — child-friendly but also hip and adult — in which both groups will be fully comfortable," says The Chicago Tribune.
For the Saturday shows, visit www.arshtcenter.org or call the box office at 305-949-6722.

Mon Jan 7 2008On-going Protest of Fur Shop Kicks Off on Fur-Free Friday
Mon Jan 7 2008J. Malnick's in Oakland Targeted as the Only Major Fur Retailer in the East Bay
On Friday, November 24th, ("Fur-Free Friday") approximately 10 individuals protested the selling of fur at J. Malnick's at 1901 Broadway in Oakland. Protesters educated passers-by about the horrors of the fur industry, including how animals are commonly killed using cruel methods including poisoning, gassing and anal electrocution and how cat and dog fur is often mislabeled as coming from another animal. During the peaceful protest, potential customers actually decided not to enter the shop that sells both fur and non-fur items on what is the busiest shopping day of the year. The owner, Mr. Warren Malnick, obviously not pleased that customers might find out about this dirty business, tried to dissuade the protesters, first by calling the police. When the police arrived and told him that the protesters were not breaking the law and were welcome to voice their opinions, Malnick then got visibly angry and hurled insults at the protesters.
Further demonstrations have been regularly scheduled.

What do you find out about Vera at the end of the story?In "The Open Window"
1 Answer | Add Yours
The reader discovers that Vera is a convincing liar (and probably with a lot of experience!), since she tells one lie right after another without flinching. If neuvrotic Mr Nuttel was indeed an ideal candidate to fall for one of her yarns, Vera seems to be able to pull the wool over the eyes of family members as well. Telling whoppers and then getting away with it seems to be her natural talent, since she cooks up a story of why Mr Nuttel ran off "on the spot" to tell her aunt.

You're a solo (or you feel like a solo since you're basically practicing alone in your firm), and the workload is totally unpredictable.
One month it's quiet, and you get caught up. You've got time for marketing, networking, blogging, sleeping, and returning client calls. In fact, the clients are thrilled when it's slow because they get exceptional service. They get used to you calling them with updates instead of having to track you down when they need you.
Then something happens—a full moon maybe?—and things hit the fan. It's a tsunami of new clients and new work. Suddenly, without warning, you're drowning. It's chaos.
Sure, you've got good systems in place—checklists, forms, templates, etc.—but when the big wave arrives, there's little you can do to keep up. You're on overload. It's overwhelming and then…it gets worse.
Your happy clients, used to prompt return phone calls and quick turnaround on document drafting, are suddenly freaking out and calling you about their upset. You've managed your clients so well that they expect nearly instant action and response.
How are you to deal with the unpredictability of new business flowing in through the door? How can you keep your old clients happy, bring the new clients into the fold, and still find time for cooking dinner and walking the dog?
Here are my ideas:
1. Accept that the ebbs and flows are normal. To some extent, they're predictable. Build these unexpected changes into the program. Don't assume that because you're on top of things today that you'll be on top of things tomorrow. Part of managing this issue is managing your own expectations and not allowing yourself to stress when things get busy.
2. Be careful about being overly quick with your existing clients. Develop some service standards, inform your clients from the outset, and stick to them. For instance, inform clients that you'll respond to emails within one business day. Don't respond faster than that when you're able so that you'll be able to take advantage of the window when you need it. Set standards for phone call returns, advance notice for appointments, turnaround time on drafting documents, etc. Set reasonable expectations from the beginning and stick to them even when you could move faster.
3. Build delegation into your systems. Sure, you don't want to carry a significant payroll during down times; that makes sense. Today, however, you can easily find external help that only costs you money when you have the work that justifies the expenditure. Virtual assistants and contract lawyers are everywhere you look, and you can train them and have them ready when the work floods in. I go weeks without talking to my virtual assistant and then we get busy and talk three times a day. Outsourcing work is a great way to handle the unexpected.
4. Adopt new efficiencies. During those down periods, go back to the drawing board on your systems. Many solos lack basic technology like document assembly. Most still maintain inefficient paper files. Use the free time to make the shift to updated technology so you'll have another advantage in dealing with the rush of new work. Document assembly technology and paperless technology, just to name two examples, can save you dozens of hours per month after you make the shift.
5. Determine your priorities in advance. Some things are time critical; some things aren't. For instance, when you get busy, it's easy to push off the referral source lunches and civic club meetings. It's much harder to push back a court deadline. Before you get busy, develop an action plan for shifting tasks around and be willing to execute on that plan immediately. Sure, you have a charitable organization board meeting you agreed to attend three months ago. You've got to be willing to skip it when push comes to shove. Making those decisions in advance makes it easier to act without agonizing over the decision. Write up a plan, assign it to your virtual assistant, and, when necessary, push the button and allow the low priority items to be deleted from your calendar.
Managing an overload of work is a good problem to have: it's much better than the alternative. While an overload is hard to predict with specificity, it's easy to know it's coming. Being prepared and making the big decisions before it happens make dealing with it much more manageable.

Bugs filed for the wrong product, or non-bugs (e.g. requests for help, rants, spam) will be immediately deleted.
The bug base can be found here: http://dev.x-plane.com/bugbase/
Criteria for Filing Bugs
- File bugs only against the scenery tools created by LR and downloadable from http://scenery.x-plane.com/
- File bug only when there is a defect in the scenery tools, or a feature request (mark the type as feature request). Do not file bugs for help!
- Do not file a bug multiple times. Please search existing bugs before filing.
- File only one bug in each report. Bug reports that contain multiple issues will be sent back to you for re-filing.
- Please try to isolate and regress your bug as much as possible, e.g. identify whether it is versions specific, content specific, airport specific, etc.
- DO NOT file bugs against X-Plane!!! This is the scenery tools bug base only.
Bug Reporting Format
In the description, all bug should contain the following info:
- Detailed steps to reproduce the bugs. "Run WED and make an airport" is not adequate. Document what you do with enough precision that the developer reproducing the bug could not possibly execute the task any way other than how you did it.
- Expected result and actual result: document both what went wrong and what you expected to have happen.
- Identify which operating system you are on. For crashes, please document your OS, drivers and graphics hardware.
Please attach any log or debug output as well as any test cases needed to reproduce the bug. Try to reduce the test cases, e.g. better to attach a small 3-d cube that causes ac3d to crash than an entire 20,000,000 triangle city.
Bug Gnomes
We need one or two users to act as "bug gnomes", doing maintenance on the bug base. If you are involved in scenery tools development please email bsupnik.

Director of Schools Harry Gill Jr. strongly recommended the Rutherford County Commission consider raising property taxes this year out of fear that Stewart's Creek High School may not open on time.
"You don't want to be faced with the possibility of not opening Stewart's Creek after spending $46 million to build it," Gill said during a joint meeting with the Health and Education Committee and Budget and Finance Committee Tuesday.
Gill presented the School Board's proposed $279.7 million budget to members of both committees, which is an increase of more than $12 million from last year.
"The state has mandated we give teachers a 2.5 percent raise," he said.
Mandated raises make up $5.5 million of the total increase with the rest being attributed to insurance, growth and maintenance costs. Gill also budgeted a raise for classified staff, which makes up $1.1 million of the increase.
Raises were not the only mandates being imposed on local governments with little funding being provided by the state.
Higher standards for public schools under the American Diploma Project also make up a large portion of the increased budget as students will have to take chemistry, and four years of math in high school beginning next year, which requires more teachers.
"So there's 19 positions the state says you have to have that we didn't need before this year," Gill said.
The School Board's budget mirrors last year's with the exception of mandates and a small pay increase for classified staff.
"This is basically a 'get by' budget in my view," he said.
The Board of Education is required by state law to maintain 3 percent of appropriations in the unassigned fund balance under the General Purpose School Fund. How to fully fund the proposed budget is a topic of concern as the unassigned fund balance could get dangerously close to coming up short.
"We could fund that from our fund balance and if we did that it would take our fund balance down to 3.13 percent, which puts us in compliance with what the state law requires, but your dilemma is we committed to open Stewart's Creek without a tax increase and that's going to be an additional $4 million to open," he said.
Gill also argued if the commission doesn't raise taxes this year, they will surely be doing it next year.
"You have to choose your poison with respect to this issue," he said. "Do you want to raise taxes a little bit this year and leave us where we can keep our fund balance around 4 percent or do you want us to use that full fund balance to fund this budget and if you do, next year is the year you're going to be raising taxes."
Commissioner Will Jordan (Dist. 3) made clear he did not want to raise taxes this year and would rather wait to see how the fund balance ends.
"I'd rather leave the tax rate alone this year...and see where that fund balance ends up at because historically it does end up better," Jordan said. "I'd rather think about raising taxes next year than actually raise them now and the money come in better and we didn't have to (raise taxes) to start with."
Mayor Ernest Burgess agreed with Jordan saying, "It's close, it's tight and I'm confident we will end better than projected."
"I hope when this time rolls around next year that if we don't have enough to open Stewart's Creek, I don't want the School Board to be the bad guys. I want to say, 'hey, we told you up front it's dangerous for us to go that deep in fund balance,' but it all may shake out. I hope it does," Gill said.
The Health and Education Committee approved the Board of Education's proposed budget.
The Budget and Finance Committee will review the budget Tuesday, May 29, and consider whether to recommend a property tax increase to the County Commission.

Audio clip
1 on 1: with Jordan Honore
The Baker University men's basketball team will play Our Lady of the Lake (Texas) Wednesday in the NAIA National Tournament. How excited are you and your teammates to play in the national tournament?
We're really excited. (Tuesday) was our day off and we couldn't wait to get back to practice (Wednesday). We were really geeked to get to see each other and we're ready to go.
This is your first year playing at Baker after transferring from Johnson County Community College. How have you felt about your first season at Baker?
I felt it has been really good as far as what I have heard about the Baker program in the past. I think you know this is the best year (Baker) has had in a while. But we're not satisfied. We want to get a national championship. So, I feel like this season has been really successful for me, and I couldn't ask for more. (Head) coach (Brett) Ballard has blessed me and given me a lot of opportunity.
Although the team was unable to come away with a win in the Heart of America Athletic Conference Tournament championship game, how do you think the atmosphere at MidAmerica Nazarene University Monday will prepare the team for the national tournament?
I think it will prepare us very well. That was actually the (liveliest) game as far as atmosphere goes that I've ever played in in my career. So, I mean, it's just nothing but good. We can take away positives from a negative and I think it is just inspiration for us to go out and do it for Baker.

The battle over sequestration was the dominant topic of discussion in Washington this week. But take a closer look at some events that didn't receive as much attention and you'll find that there was another notable story line: The intraparty arguments that have plagued the GOP in the recent past haven't disappeared. Consider:
* The American Conservative Union snubbed New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), declining to extend a CPAC speaking invitation to one of the GOP's leading figures and a possible 2016 presidential candidate.
* The Club For Growth, an anti-tax group that has built its reputation for taking on perceived moderate congressional Republicans, put nine House incumbents in safe GOP districts on notice. And the Club's president said Karl Rove and his Conservative Victory Project that seeks to identify electable Republicans don't care about the core beliefs candidates hold.
* Speaking of the Conservative Victory Project, an outspoken congressman the group has publicly identified as an example of the kind of candidate it has concerns about now looks like the presumptive frontrunner for the Republican Senate nomination in Iowa. After Rep. Tom Latham (R) said this week that he won't run, Rep. Steve King (R), a staunchly conservative and sometime controversial Republican, looks like he would have the inside track to the nomination, if he chooses to run. If he does, Republicans who don't like him will have a decision to make.
* A vote over the Violence Against Women Act divided congressional Republicans. And it marked the third time since December that House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) allowed legislation to move off the floor that didn't have the support of a majority of his conference.
None of the developments, on their own, was groundbreaking or even entirely unexpected. But taken together, they reveal that the Republican Party continues to face fractures that could generate higher-profile fights down the line.
The Club's posturing and King's emergence as a potential Senate frontrunner illustrate how the intraparty congressional campaign battles that have cost Republicans seats the past two cycles have yet to disappear. The conservative discomfort with Christie could become a more significant development if he runs for president. Finally, the divide that has continued to seize the House GOP stands to be a factor in upcoming legislative battles, if it persists.
None of this is to say that all intraparty disagreement are necessarily harmful. Disagreements can help parties sort out their views. And it would probably be impossible to find a Democratic or Republican Party at any point in time with leaders who agreed on everything.
But the Republican Party is in the midst of a healing process right now, following an election in which it fell short of reclaiming the White House and Senate. If there was ever a time when more unity would arguably be a political asset, it's now. But with many competing voices, the reality is that the GOP's path forward doesn't look like it will be free of some rough patches at the least, and major impasses at the most.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 126.96.36.199
Forum Moderators: not2easy
Overall I have liked the Olympus cameras. I have used the Mavicas in the past and haven't liked them as much. I would rather have a small Smart Media card than a CD.
and here is the info on the DSC F707
I really like the idea of saving to a rw disk, over and over again. The savings for the amount of savings must be great. And trasfereing the data/images to a computer that doesnt have a smart media reader is a great plus imho.
Have any of you used any of these cameras? What would you say about them??
Im going to check out Olympus now, brb ;)
(edited by: SmallTime at 12:14 am (utc) on May 8, 2002)
They have a very good tool to make a selection within your budget.
If you could spend more you could get a pretty decent SLR. This makes a HUGE difference.
Once you have reviewed the cameras and have decided on a few look at www.pricescan.com. It compares prices from several sites on the web so you can find the best price for your camera. One camera I looked at was MSRP $699 and I found sites that ranged in price from $220 to $750.
my 2 pence worth
Olympus is about to release a new C-series: C-720, 3 mp, 8x zoom, priced around $600 USD. Uses SmartMedia, includes rechargeable batteries, and has a pretty speedy shutter for better "action" shots...
Supposed to hit the streets in June.
Where with the floppy just pop it out load it up and pop it back in.
It also comes with a memory adaptor for the floppy but BEWARNED, if you have any other writing device on your computer, (beside your floppy drive) ie CDRW, DVDRW, ZipDrive, etc. YOU CAN NOT USE IT!!! First hand experince, spent 2 days trying to figure out why it would work.
Thats my 2 cents may 3 cents worth
To clarify:
With the SONY CD 1000 camera, I "initialize" the CD in the camera to format it to accept images. The disk can be removed and replaced without re-initializing the CD. To view the photos or download onto your computer however, the CD must be "finalized" in the camera. Then the computer's CD drive can read it.
A finalized CD can be reinitialized to accept more photos. Finalizing a CD uses up some of its space, so if you finalize a CD several times to download groups of images, it won't hold the full complement of shots that a CD used from beginning to end without finalizing.
I would definately not go for a disk or cd in camera unit.
Smartmedia or compact flash card cameras with a USB connection allow you to shoot as many images as you like, write times to the cards are fast, you can drag them into your PC before deciding which are worth keeping and which discarding because the on camera lcd screens are not that good for reviewing pics in.
It seems a waste to write and close a CD and floppy, well the largest tiff image my Fuji FP4900z takes is 16mb, some floppy if you can fit one of those on it :-)
Features I would look for:
as much as you can afford especially if you plan to print.
as good as you can afford. (you can check these out in detail at dpreview.com) If you cannot stretch to a DSLR then you may want to be sure there are lense accessories e.g. adaptor for filters and or telephoto or wideangle etc ..
Storage Media:
reusable, common, cheap to buy more... oh and big! Plus I think a USB connection is a must ...
Battery life:
check the reviews, digital cameras are much harder on batteries than film units.
Battery prices:
You are likely to want spares, check CPC if you are in the UK.
Others ... built in flash, hot shoe .. size and quality of viewfinder .. iso ratings, shutter speeds .. aperture options .. extent of manual mode ..
Oh and last but not least repute of maker and seller and length and quality of return and repair policy etc ...
Hope this helps... and if you have bought an in CD camera... ooops dont read this message I am sure you will be very happy with it :-)
I will end up getting it the 1st of next month. I went by best buy the other day for something else, and saw that they had an open box item of them in stock for $900.00 with everything included and full warranty. I was very impressed with the camera as a whole. I still think it will be the one I go with.
I agree to some extent about the floppy / cd cameras. Except the Sony cd will write to rewriteable media, therefore the expense is very acceptable. But as you mentioned, the transfere rate kinda blows imho :) .
So, if any of you have any more suggestions let me know. Im still in the market for one.
There are forums for each make so you can get some idea of how owners think, though you will find that a little something called "cognitive dissonance reducing behaviour" means that most folks when they have shelled out so much money to go digital will not hear or give much criticism of their own choice !! makes it harder to see the real differences..
One point ... if you want to make really sharp and narrow depth of field images (basically wow! shots) like this one (not mine btw):
Then you may need a better camera or lense combination than most of the prosumer units come with as standard.
- 6x optical zoom
- Smartmedia memory cards (now up to 128mb)
- burst mode
- Auto, Aperture, shutter or manual modes
- auto or semi manual (fly by wire) focussing
- Jpeg, Tiff or Avi (w/o sound)
- A Fuji Super CCD (about which there is some discussion as the camera generates up to something like 4.9mp images but these are interpolated up from a honeycomb of 0.5 as many actual CCD elements)
To critique my own choice, I chose it because I had never had a proper camera with all the adjustments you can use ... the next generation FP6900z had come out so this one was marked down at a good price andwas ex stock, I did not expect to want to print much as I wanted it for web work mainly ..
Am I happy with it 4k shots later .. yes .. however you can tell by my wish list where its shortfalls might lie:
What I would love but cannot really justify:
- a digital SLR with a much much better viewfinder than the small lcd (EVF) of the prosumers..
- the ability to add / change lenses from a range
- fully manual focussing for low light and faster focussing with the better viewfinder / lenses mentioned above
- more reolution for larger blow ups in print .. see I changed my mind about printing, when you get a great image you just will want to print it ... and some printers go at 600 or 1200 dpi which makes a 1.6mb jpg pretty small in standard resolution ..
But as a digital, the Fuji 4900Z has made me very happy with its image quality. Especially compared to the 14X zoom sony mavica floppy camera we had stolen from the office. I much prefer the Fuji with the higher resolution & the teeny little smart media cards.
Smartmedia are credit card size (and compact flash I think the same size) .... can get 128mb ones now (they fit in your wallet) you can have all the extra storate space without having to carry about any physical kit.
BTW the latest finepix 602 has a slot which will take a 1gb microdrive.
Interesting you feel the same about the viewfinder etc..
Unfortunately I did not have a film slr so have no lenses already which is one of the things holding me back from a proper job.
I saw the website of a pretty slick wedding photographer who uses two or more cameras, one dig one film and shoots photojournalist style. Amazing images, the kit he had was a big investment but get this, he was doing loads of weddings a year at $9k each.
Not sure I can justify a digital slr until / unless I get paid seperately for photography and am not yet good enough.
BTW do you know Mivox what the lifetime of the slr bits is?
With all the new DSLRs coming out I am wondering if some used bodies will come up.
I love my SLR. The lack of a through-the-lens viewfinder is the #1 drawback of every single digital camera I try, because I can't quite justify the price of true SLR digital bodies/camera backs. Canon, Minolta and Mamiya all offer true SLR digital options... I just don't have $5000 to spend on a camera/accessory kit.
what the lifetime of the slr bits is?
No clue.
Me neither and if i did I have other priorities now (family, taxman, motorcycles etc) which mean it would be a big indulgance :-(
However having not had a film SLR myself can you advise the economics / practicality of getting a (now very cheap) used film SLR and some lenses, film developing normally with a shop then scanning and using digitally when needed?
Do you do this yourself Mivox?
NB one of the other things that bothers me about prosumers is that they are not really for "this world" .. ie no O-ring seals etc so in bad weather when some amazing images are to be had (I think) .. plastic bags would need to be wound around them to protect them from shorts etc .. yuk.
But if I were to start using a 35mm again, I think I'd buy a film scanner instead of getting prints made. Then, you'd have your images in digital & film form, and could either send the dig. files to an online digital-to-print shop, get regular prints made from the film negs after you'd "previewed" the images on your computer, or just print snapshots out on a good quality home printer.
Mmm. Makes me want to go buy more camera batteries now... ;)
Mivox have you tried any prints from the 4900 this way, I assume they are exposting it somehow onto photo paper rather than just printing it with an ink jet.
Do you get significantly better results than printing on a local pc printer?
Is that perhaps where one sees the difference between 16mb tiff and 1.6mb jpeg?
Just seems more efficient to preview & crop images the way you want, and then only order the prints you want rather than ending up with a half roll of 4x6 prints you hate...
As for the 4900, You could get great 5x7's out of it I think, but for an 8x10 I'm pretty sure you'd want to *take* the perfect photo at maximum resolution, and have it printed un-cropped.
I like my 4900 for web work, but if I was going to get heavy into wall-hanging-8x10 & up size prints, I'd definitely invest in a higher resolution camera (well, honestly, I'd dream about investing in a higher res. digital, but I'd actually take my 35mm in for a tune-up and go back to using film.)

Earlier this afternoon, we passed along the mock drafts from ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. and Todd McShay, which presented an interesting debate on drafting for need versus value.
Kiper pegged hard-hitting safety Matt Elam out of Florida at pick 29, while McShay slotted Jonathan Cooper, a hulking guard from North Carolina.
To oversimplify the picks, it was a case of need (Elam) versus value (Cooper).
Elam is regarded as a potential first-rounder and would beef up a Patriots secondary that could undergo a facelift this offseason. He would serve as a nice complement to Devin McCourty, who settled into a free safety role last season. Given those considerations, he's a player that would fill a need.
Cooper, conversely, would have a tough competition to crack the starting lineup as a rookie, as the Patriots have their left guard in place in Logan Mankins and a solid starter at right guard in Dan Connolly (who was signed to a handsome contract last offseason). But at pick 29 (Kiper had Cooper all the way at number 11), would he be too good to pass up?
Looking back at the first-round picks made by the Patriots under Bill Belichick, history suggests the team has found players who filled needs while also meeting first-round value.
2001: Defensive lineman Richard Seymour
2002: Tight end Daniel Graham
2003: Defensive end Ty Warren
2004: Nose tackle Vince Wilfork, tight end Ben Watson
2005: Guard Logan Mankins
2006: Running back Laurence Maroney
2007: Safety Brandon Meriweather
2008: Linebacker Jerod Mayo
2010: Cornerback Devin McCourty
2011: Offensive tackle Nate Solder
2012: Defensive end Chandler Jones, linebacker Dont'a Hightower
Of those players listed above, many contributed on an immediate basis, while others evolved into starters by their second year (Solder and Wilfork were groomed by Matt Light and Keith Traylor, respectively).
Using that sample as a baseline, the Patriots have excelled at finding first-round talent that has fit their team needs.
As it relates to Cooper, this isn't to suggest he wouldn't be on the team's radar, as he's a talented player and both Connolly and Mankins are 30 years old, meaning he could develop into a starter down the line. But looking back at the trends of Belichick's draft history, it seems the team has favored finding players that fit needs and offer value, not taking a player only because of the latter.

Reid House
Reid House
Check out an animation of this project here.
This impressive farmhouse was once the centerpiece of an extensive farm of fruit orchards and rural paddocks. Suburban Melbourne has since spread to encase the property and the paddocks have been subdivided into housing blocks. The farm house now sits on a modest corner block, cropped by suburbia.
The vernacular language of traditional farms, where outbuildings servicing the main homestead form extrusions which bend in response to surrounding conditions, began to inform the extension.
A majestic gum tree and solar orientation to the north start to dictate a point of focus, but sweeping views to the south also draw attention. The result is a inclination to locate the active living areas upstairs to access both vistas. This is achieved through the gymnastics of bending and returning the services extrusion back on top of itself, creating a dynamic addition to the traditional forms of the old farmhouse.

Randalstown man Trevor Beatty threw himself into volunteering for a local children's cancer charity after his little grandaughter passed away.
With Volunteer Week happening from June 1 to June 7, Trevor has opened up about how volunteering has enriched his life and has urged others to give it a go.
Trevor first came into contact with Cancer Fund for Children while his little granddaughter Katie was battling neuroblastoma – a rare form of childhood cancer.
Sadly, Katie passed away in 2011 at the age of just four and a half.
Trevor said: "During Katie's illness she was appointed a charity Specialist whose undaunted dedication proved invaluable to my family.
"When Katie passed away it was a very challenging time for the wider family circle but the support received from Cancer Fund for Children proved most helpful.
"It was at this time I realised just what was behind the charity and what motivated them to provide such vital support for families. I wanted to get involved to help spread the work and raise awareness."
Trevor explained the different ways he has volunteered for the charity.
"Our Hug in a Mug coffee morning in May 2012 kick-started my volunteer relationship with Cancer Fund for Children," he said.
He added: "I then went on to use my expertise as a retired bank manager to help out in the charity's finance department.
"I've also volunteered at the World Police and Fire Games and took up the role of Santa for the Christmas grotto. I helped the charity organise the Antrim Winter Woolly Walk and have delivered a talk to a major corporate business supporting the charity to explain to them how the money they will raise will help."
Trevor went on to describe how he has benefitted from volunteering: "Volunteering has brought me into contact with like-minded people who just want to help. I feel by devoting a portion of my time I am contributing something worthwhile to this amazing organisation.
"None of us know when we may need to call on the Cancer Fund for Children, so I'm delighted to be involved and do whatever I can. I would recommend volunteering to anyone, it is a great way to learn new skills and meet new people while really making a difference."
Cancer Fund for Children is always looking for volunteers and is urging people to bite the bullet this volunteer week and get in contact if they can help out in any way.

DOT: Airline Passengers Rise in 2010, Not as High as Pre-Recession
(Kate Hinds, Transportation Nation) Airlines carried 2.1% more passengers in 2010 than the previous year, according to the US Department of Transportation's Bureau of Transportation Statistics, which released 2010 data today. But passenger totals still remained 3.2 percent below 2008's level of 812.3 million.
2010's top airline was Delta. Following its merger with Northwest, the Atlanta-based airline carried over 110 million passengers last year. More total system passengers boarded planes in 2010 at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International than at any other U.S. airport; and more international passengers boarded planes at New York John F. Kennedy than at any other U.S. airport.

darwinstudios necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 45 diseños de 20 diseñadores freelance.
The company is called MMA Barn and will be an e-commerce company selling mixed martial arts equipment. We are looking for a great logo to get the business started. There really are not too many limitations, be creative! The logo should contain the words "MMA Barn".
MMA Barn
Desired Color Scheme:
open to any color scheme
Desired Style:
edgy, reflective of the sport of fighting
Accepted File Formats:
Vector Formats (.eps, .pdf or .ai)
Colors are open. The main demographic is 16-35 males, so you can keep that in mind when designing. We also will be using this logo for tshirts, etc. So it needs to look good at all sizes.
Also, the logo should reflect the sport so we don't really want something that looks like it would be in a doctors office.
Here are some sites doing the same type of business we will be doing (not necessarily a reference of their logos, just that this is what the business is)Â .
Let me know if you need any more information!
