Alright....Blackguards is definitely a game with no lack for content. In fact, there was enough for me to put in a solid 60 hours. Some of that time was redoing battles and such, but there were plenty of quests and plenty to do in general. The game itself is a curious blend of your prototypical Daedalic adventure/point and click game (when you are in towns, albeit with the hidden object stuff removed of course) mixed with turn based hex battles that use random number generators ala XCOM and other luminous titles. The RNG aspect can make things interesting as occasionally, you will inexplicably miss when you show a 95% chance to hit (actually, it isn't inexplicable..you fell victim to that other 5% lol), but at other times, when your percentage is really low and you go for a desperation power move, and it connects, you totally feel excited and stoked for having taken that risk. Graphically, it wont blow you away. It is reminiscent of other Daedalic games when in cities/towns/etc..., but when in battle, it's more of an isometric approach with movable cameras that can be adjusted to the cardinal directions as well as going from top down to more straight ahead angles. This definitely comes into play during battles as you get different vantage points to make decisions and set actions. Definitely pulls off that middle ages with mysticism look well. The cutscenes are more of the same. Nothing too spectacular, but still effective and definitely in line with the overall game presentation. The story itself is interesting enough. You are framed for the murder of the princess, whom you and a few of your friends grew up with while under the care and apprenticeship of a powerful wizard. You are arrested, and escape with the help of two other prisoners, who become your stalwart companions. From there, you are at first trying to solve the murder and clear your name, but as things progress, you uncover a plot that can destroy the world. At that point, your goals become far more lofty. The story was engaging enough to keep me interested throughout. Which was necessary, as the pace of the game was not very fast. In fact, it took a while for me to get to the point where my characters were able to resolve the more difficult battles without copious retries. The battle system itself was pretty stellar in my opinion. If you have played XCOM or other turn based hex battle system games, you will have a good grasp for this game fairly quickly as far as the combat is concerned. What they don't do is churn out the same basic layout over and over. Each battle gets it's own unique battle map, which was stellar in my opinion. You never get bored from seeing the same map over and over, which even XCOM as guilty of (I keep going back o XCOM as a reference due to its accessibility as a point of reference for this games combat systems). The geography of the battle is often as important as your positioning relative to your enemies. Often, there will be traps, mires/bogs, and other obstacles that will hinder or help you and your enemies. Cover is provided on many maps. Interactive objects also make there way into the battlefield. For example, there might be a stack of barrels that you can knock over to crush enemies underneath or simply block their path (and they might use those same stacks), a stand filled with rocks that can be knocked over, bookcases, oil filled barrels that explode, pools of oil, vats of poison, simple chairs and tables, etc....The battle maps were supremely well thought out in my opinion and kept things pretty fresh. In addition to all that, there might be goals other than simply destroying your enemy, such as trying to fight your way to a specific part of the map, free prisoners to help you fight, defend citizens as they try to flee the battle zone, escort missions, and so on. There was even two instances where complete stealth was necessary and one where you are fighting your way through a cavern while also trying to stay ahead of a poison cloud that creeps slowly forward behind you. So much variety. It was really quite impressive. The quests were pretty standard fare for the most part. Go find this missing person, please retrieve this item and possibly take it to somebody else, find out what this person or that person is hiding, intercept shipments, and so on. They were fun, and if you play RPG's, they are par for the course. However, they were much easier to finish and never dragged out. Short and to the point as it were. I had a lot of fun with them, and finished every quest the game had to offer.The main quest itself was pretty interesting, as I mentioned before, and kept you moving forward. The pacing itself was pretty slow. In fact, the first few hours of gameplay might dissuade some people from continuing on. It takes a while for the game to start really sending you places, and it also takes a while for you to be able to upgrade your equipment and abilities. However, once you get past that initial stage, the game never stops moving forward, even if it is at a slower tan normal RPG pace. I wouldn't get discouraged by this. Once it really got going, I never looked back, although I did break up the gameplay by taking a day off in between sessions to play other types of games. I think that approach benefited the gameplay here, as it helped me to stay interested. The reason I mention this is because, on top of all that, this game is absolutely combat focused and is quite grind-ey. In fact, you will pretty much need to grind out every battle to level up enough to have a reasonable experience later in the game. Fortunately, even if you wrap up all te quests, there is the option to do gladiator fights whenever you want (after you become the champions of the gladiator ring), which will fill out any necessary experience and give you extra cash to spend on potions and such, which you will definitely need to do. Healing and mana potions (they don't call it mana, but same thing) are an absolute necessity, and especially towards the end of the game, you will want to have as many as possible. You cant have too many, and they don't carry any inventory weight with them, so there is no reason not to keep yourself well stocked. The only other things I ever really spent my coins on were arrows and the occasional armor upgrade. You will find plenty of weapons, poisons, etc...throughout the game and shouldn't need to buy any after maybe your first couple upgrades. At a certain point, those all become more than plentiful via combat spoils. You do have party encumbrance, but I never really found it to be an issue, and went over several times, lol. As far as the inventory system goes, it's pretty simple...you have your various clothing slots (which equate to pants, shoes, gloves, shirt, and hat). You have three weapon loadout slots (during battle, you can switch between the three, but each switch counts as a turn). Each loadout has two hands available, so one loadout might be sword and shield, another might be bow and arrows, another might be a greatsword, etc...You also wear a belt which can have as many as 4 slots available (depending on the belt itself). Each slot will hold one disposable item (potion, poison, grenade (equivalent), or throwing weapon).
Lengthy game, with enjoyable unique combat. Abilities and attacks are able to cause wounds that will decrease stats in battles and choosing to focus more on attacking or on defense by changing how characters assign their skill points to their weapons weapons adds more strategy to the fights. You can switch someone to a much more defensive stance when needed and then change to something more appropriate if the situation changes. Story isn't that interesting and while characters might have a few funny moments they are mostly forgettable, the plot does start to get more interesting further into the game and has multiple endings. The game has some pointless elements like needing to rest or pay for an inn to regain magic points, which regenerate while in battle but for some reason won't once the fight is over, or you might be forced to look for arrows to buy all the time as you can run out from using your attacks in battle.
Blackguards is an odd mix of Civilization and Fire Emblem. Unfortunately, the Fire Emblem battle controls feel awkward and the battlefield is far too small to justify it when more troops are on the field. On top of that, it's far too shallow to serve as an alternative to Civilization. It would be a decent game for beginners to the strategy style of games, but disappointing otherwise.
Blackguards started out as a severely overpriced RPG on Steam that nobody seemed to know anything about. After picking it up in a bundle, I decided to give it a try. Blackguard utilises an almost completely unknown RPG ruleset (I should know, I've been playing RPGs for 10 years now) and then allows us to just ignore it. The story starts pretty abruptly and the gameplay starts with the pretty Elder Scrolls trope of the player being in a prison. From there, the game reveals a transiently fun turn-based combat system, a confusing and unnecessary skills-system, some passably entertaining characters, unreasonable difficulty curves and a story that I really didn't care about. A definite miss.
We waited for a long time for turn based RPG !!! This game can promise a lot of playing hours if you're into TBRPG. When you enter character creation, then you'll decipher that this is low budget game trying to beat AAA titles. Developers tried to create a perfect game, but character creation is just too shallow and the story is very linear. When you bypass these facts then you'll enjoy in above average RPG game. It sucked me in because of REAL RPG drought on the market today. Worth tryin'

For the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), domain names are the way to organize a chaotic global internet. But when ICANN proposed a .XXX domain for adult-content, it sparked a political fight. Those debating the new .XXX suffix are an uneasy alliance of pornographers, the Christian right, conservative countries and the U.S. government. Brooke speaks to Bret Fausett, a lawyer and advisor to ICANN, about how names can hurt you. Transcript BROOKE GLADSTONE: What's in a name? For the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, names or domain names are the way to organize a chaotic global Internet. But the task of assigning domain names and the content those names imply, .com, .net and .org, for example, also is increasing political. ICANN was created by the U.S. Government and despite international representatives on its board, ICANN ultimately still answers to the U.S. Department of Commerce. But the Department has never used that authority until last month. That was when a five-year-old plan to generate a new domain name suddenly ignited new outrage, mostly from the Christian right. The new domain name was to be .XXX, designed specifically for Internet porn. After a deluge of six thousand letters, the Commerce Department stepped in to halt ICANN's imminent passage of .XXX. But according to Bret Fausett, a lawyer and advisor to ICANN, opposition to the new domain extended far beyond America's borders. BRET FAUSETT: There were also some governments that wrote to ICANN. ICANN has a body known as the Government Advisory Committee on which representatives of the world's governments sit. And some of the people who were opposed to it included the board member from China, board member of Mexico. If you look at where people came from who voted against it, they come from countries that I think you could fairly describe as more conservative. BROOKE GLADSTONE: Could you sum up what the argument against the .XXX domain name would be? It seems to me that if you put all the porn guys there you'd be able to identify them and, and perhaps even regulate them ultimately. BRET FAUSETT: You know, politics truly does make strange bedfellows because on both sides of this issue we find conservative groups and pro-pornography groups who don't want to see .XXX come into being from the conservative side or those who think that a top-level domain specifically devoted to adult content would somehow give it legitimacy that it shouldn't have. The pornographers who are on that side don't want a .XXX because they don't want to be ghettoized into a .XXX. They want to stay in .com. And on the other side of the equation you have people who are in favor of it, who include conservative family groups who think that, yes, having a segregated area for XXX and, and adult content would be a very good thing for families and children. And you also have pornographers who think it would be a good thing because it would give them another brand. BROOKE GLADSTONE: So let's unpack these arguments for and against .XXX. People on the Christian right or the conservative groups who oppose this domain are, well, at the very least a bit naïve if they think that the pornography business needs the legitimacy of a particular domain name to be strong. BRET FAUSETT: I think it is naïve but I, I think that there really is a segment of the community – you find this view all of the world – that believes that once you give it an official label accessible to anyone in the world that that elevates it in status and somehow makes it acceptable. I, I don't agree with that view but I understand it. BROOKE GLADSTONE: And when the pornographers say they don't want it because it'll ghettoize them, this is voluntary, so far at least. The proposal has them able to keep their .com domain along with the .XXX so it seems to me there wouldn't be any ghettoization going on. BRET FAUSETT: Absolutely. The proposal right now is voluntary. But, you know, I think it's naïve for the people who are in favor of it not to think that governments are going to piggyback on top of .XXX with national laws requiring adult content to move into .XXX. BROOKE GLADSTONE: Is that because once they're all in XXX you can start imposing controls on XXX? At least Sandra Day O'Connor said that the .com world is virtually unpoliceable. BRET FAUSETT: That's exactly the point. And if you go back ten years when Congress was first dealing with adult content on the Internet, they passed something called the Communications Decency Act. This went all the way up to the United States Supreme Court and the Court said, "This is unconstitutional." And one of the opinions that's often looked to for the greatest weight is Sandra Day O'Connor's opinion. And she said, "You know, the Communications Decency Act isn't constitutional now but maybe some day we'll be able to zone the Internet the same way we zone adult businesses out of, you know, areas where there are schoolchildren, areas where there are churches, areas where there are families." She said, "We're not there yet but maybe some day we'll get there." And I think that if .XXX passes, and I still think it will over the next three or four years, you're going to see many, many nations pass laws requiring pornographic content to move into .XXX. BROOKE GLADSTONE: All right. Bret, thank you very much. BRET FAUSETT: Oh, you're very welcome. BROOKE GLADSTONE: Bret Fausett is an attorney and an advisor to ICANN representing Internet users.

Obtaining bathtubs is really a pretty deluxe knowledge. www.meditubs.com For a few people, sitting on a enjoyable tub is the most exciting part on the working day. Just imagine getting your very own quiet time, pondering your pleased times and considering pretty much any trivial and random points; each one of these plus the bodily indulgence led to by bathing your entire body from the heat h2o and soaking inside the suds; also to best everything, a candlelight ambiance and a glass of champagne. What might be much more soothing than that? Nonetheless, in the event you have a very compact bathroom place and you also imagine this isn't relevant towards your property, this is fantastic information for yourself. You are able to now contemplate acquiring walk-in tubs and baths!
Walk-in baths and tubs do the very same matter that typical bathtubs do; the only real variance is its physical composition. They are not essentially long (while some are very long at the same time), they may be deeper as a substitute. This is why it may possibly match tiny loos. Naturally as it is referred to as "walk-in", this sort of tub includes a door wherever anyone walks-in. They should close that door in advance of bathing and need to wait around right until the complete h2o drains just before he/she opens it again to acquire out; hence some endurance is needed to stop abnormal drinking water spills. Regarded obtaining your own personal? Effectively, at the least you might have to become mindful on how it's destined to be installed. The following are the standard methods in setting up walk-in baths and tubs:
one. Prepare the wanted data just like the top and width of preferred tub.
2. Decide on its place.
3. Decide no matter whether or never to clear away former tub. Track down access to plumbing and turn from the water.
four. Eliminate tub line, shower wall, and tiles exactly where it is for being placed.
five. Set the tub in place and reconnect the pipes.
6. Use caulking in all areas that may leak like doorways and also the flooring.
Now, enjoying a bath within a tub would not need to have a lot space any longer.

The attraction of vacuum tubes / valves.
Quite apart from the sound, I think tube equipment is way more interesting to look at than solid state stuff. Anyway, what I was thinking of is... would tube stuff have as great a following if all tubes were in metal cans instead of glass, therefore you could not look inside them and see what is happening when they are going. Being such good entertainment for the eyes as well as the ears gives them an extra facet of attraction but I wonder how many people would have taken an interest in them if they weren't so great to stare into when they are going?
Tube attraction.
You are right. The tube is attractive with the glowing heater and the transparent see through tube. I am glad that they sound so good also. Circuit wise they are easier to figure out and use less components in many cases.
I must admit that if they were only as good as a good solid state amp I would have bypassed them. They do have the the hassles related to high ( lethal!) voltages . I have been ' shocked ' so many times. Even if one is careful , it does happen off and on.
For people who just buy boxes and use them , this should not be a problem.
Tubes are great. I love them !
Good observation...
And I agree wholeheartedly (probably spelled wrong). Like ashok said luckily they sound good as well. Otherwise I would have just gotten a 5.1 channel receiver because it can be quite an expensive hobby and a hassle.
The looks are a big factor in the enjoyment of the hobby and music.
A third reason
Some of us grew up with them.
As a child I would pull apart old radio's.
At school age, I built them.
So my first constructions used valves like 6V6, ECC33, EF91, EF50 (which didn't glow).
So nostagia plays a big part for me:)
BTW Bas, the spelling's fine;)
Re: The attraction of vacuum tubes / valves.
Caveman feelings
It has to glow. Transistors are extremely boring things to look at, and to date the only scope for sculpture seems to have been in the heatsinks. On the other hand, who can fail to be warmed by the sight of one's cat stretched out in front of a set of output valves?
An alternative secondary use is that the radiant heat and glow from a valve amplifier in subdued lighting makes your whisky look and taste nicer.
What we acquire in life........
It's oo easy with tubes
Simple circuits sound good from the start.
You don't have to care about distortion too much with tubes
because their distortion is what makes them sound so good.
With transistors you have to try a thousant times and the
music seems harder when distortion reaches very low levels.
(maybe bad Cd recordings is the cause ?)
It's unfair.
Maybe I am wrong, do you think so?
All the above points are well made and I agree that the aesthetics are important - I love valves and that's why I am in this mad hobby.
Another point in favour of valves is the staggering abuse a valve can take and survive. E.g. being connected incorrectly!
Just look at a transistor/IC in the "wrong tone of voice" and it will lay down and :dead:
Hi 7N7,
Yep that's another reason I love tubes..ruggedness...
But when building my frontrow amp a 6X4WA died when I connected 540v to the heater instead of 6,3V.

For terminology purposes, Dominants are called Doms (for male) and Dommes (for females). (s)ubmissives (always with a small 's') are gender neutral. Switches do not have gender delineation either.
How does one decide if they are a Dominant or submissive (or both – termed a switch)? Do all people identify as one or the other? Can you force yourself to change over from one to the other or learn to be Dominant or submissive? Why is this type of identity sexually gratifying? Should I try to be Dominant or submissive? These are all common questions and can be answered in a general manner.
Usually there is no "deciding" if you are a Dominant or submissive. If you tend to be one or the other, you will know it. In sexual situations you will be more of the aggressor or the initiator if you are more Dominant. You may have the urge to control your partner via different methods of restraint (or even just holding down). You derive sexual pleasure from giving them pleasure in a way that makes you the active partner while they are "forced" to take it (no force as in rape). Many Dominants are one of two personality types (a) type-A personalities who need to find order and control in all areas of their lives or (b) relaxed types who tend to feel they have little to no actual control in their standard lives. As you can see, there is no hard and fast rule here. A type-A Dominant is so because he/she NEEDS to have that control in every aspect of their lives. However, if you tend to be more laid back in real life, you may have the urge to be in control in your sexual life. Either possibility can ring true.
Punishment Is Pleasure With Our Whips And Paddles!
If you identify as submissive you ultimately derive pleasure from relinquishing control. This can be as simple as not being the one to initiate sex all the way to not being able to make any sexual decisions (consensualwithdrawal of participation). There are different levels of submission as well. Many submissives are such because in their standard life they are very timid and do not enjoy being the one in control. Their "natural state" is one of submission and they carry that to the bedroom. The flip side of this are people who are very high-powered in their real lives. They may have jobs that are very demanding and stressful. Therefore when it comes to sex they do not want to make any decisions at all. It is easier for them to relinquish that control sexually.
Switches, however, can be comfortable in either situation. Most "vanilla" people are not switches, as it means more to be a switch than being able to be the aggressor or the submissive easily. A true switch not only feels comfortable being the Dominant but he/she feels equally comfortable being the submissive. Switches tend to understand the psychological dynamic of both sides of the sexual coin and therefore can transition to either/or without disruption to their sexual psyche.
Not all people identify as a Dominant or submissive. Many people just go through their sexual lives not ever thinking about it. It may be partner-dependent. You may take a more dominant role with a more passive partner and vice versa. Obviously, if pressed to think about which side of the coin you fall you could pick, but for some it will never be obvious. For others, however, you definitely KNOW which side you fall because sex becomes much more involved when you can engage in activities as either a Dominant or Submissive. It may never be necessary for you to choose. However, if you feel the urge to be Dominant or submissive, you will likely know it.
Exclusively Shop Official Fifty Shades Of Grey!
Sometimes we have a partner who is more submissive and they want us to be more Dominant. If we are submissive by nature, can we learn to be Dominant? The answer is yes and no. You can "fake it" in some manners by participating in an almost role playing identity where you engage in activities that are seen as being more Dominant. You can order your "submissive" to do things, initiate sex, or perhaps engage in some light bondage. If you do not identify as a Dominant, these activities will likely not give you much sexual gratification. Likewise if you are a more Dominant personality and your partner wants you to be submissive. Dominant people do not do well as submissives as that is too far the other direction sexually. Can you learn to do it, sure. However, it is not usually a true "learnt" behavior, it is more of an inner need to be one or the other. If you are a true switch, however, then you can learn to be both sides very successfully.
What is sexually gratifying about being Dominant or submissive? Well, think of it as being transgendered. If you are born a boy, but identify as a girl you may go through your whole life feeling like you are in the wrong body. Everything seems awkward and at-odds with who you really are. When you can finally identify as the gender you KNOW you are, you will feel at peace and whole. With true Dominants or submissives when they are in the role that is the most truly "them" they can feel a form of sexual freedom which is unmatched. For people who have never tried being Dominant or submissive and then have that experience, they feel a sort of sexual peace. It is like fulfilling your true purpose sexually. This is a large part of what makes it sexually gratifying. On a more basic note, experimenting with different types of power exchange can be and is extremely exhilarating. Being able to exercise (or relinquish) sexual control with your partner is an experience that brings exhilaration! The excitement and fear factor alone can bring sex to new heights. Not to mention exploring these options with a partner whom you trust can make sex in general that much better.
Make Your Next Move A Naughty Surprise!
Finally, is this an experience that you should try to engage in? Do you feel the need to be more Dominant in bed? Are you feeling like you need to be "taken" in a sexual way? Are you afraid of offending your partner by asking for some sort of sexual role play? If you feel a strong urge from within or if your partner has expressed an interest in Domination or submission then talk it out. See if both of you feel that you could experiment with this type of sexual dynamic. One word of caution however, when someone realizes that they are a true Dominant or submissive and experience that type of sexual freedom they often (not always) find it difficult to go back to another role. This may cause issues if you have a partner that simply cannot be your complimentary role. You may have to discuss this and find a situation that can gratify both of you equally.
Are You Dominant Or Submissive?
Let Us Know!

text: DALLAS, Nov. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Ryan, a leading global tax services firm with the largest indirect and property tax practices in North America, today announced the launch of a new Abandoned and Unclaimed Property (AUP) Asset Recovery Service to provide clients additional value, improved profitability, and greater cash flow. The new service will expand the capabilities of one of the largest Abandoned and Unclaimed Property practices in the United States, while helping companies overcome the significant challenges of recovering AUP assets.Most companies focus on the AUP requirement to report and remit property in the company's possession belonging to another and often overlook significant assets held by states, counties, local municipalities, state and federal court systems, licensing and permitting agencies, and others. Companies that are focusing on identifying property and claiming it back are challenged by the complexity of the process. Although all jurisdictions maintain websites to search for AUP held on behalf of owners, not all transactions are statutorily subject to reporting. Consequently, to reclaim unreported assets, especially in cases where the jurisdiction does not require such reporting by holders of AUP, companies must subscribe to every state, local, and federal jurisdiction's database, as well as hundreds of other sources to locate their property.Ryan's new AUP Asset Recovery Service will provide a single-source solution for asset recovery, which includes identification of the property being held and by whom, preparation of the claim documentation, filing of the claims, and working with the jurisdictions to ensure the return of client assets. The Firm will leverage a comprehensive, proprietary database of more than four-million records of assets that are not available online or through state searches to identify and capture lost client assets."We will continue to meet the growing client demand for additional abandoned and unclaimed property services and support," said Mark A. Paolillo, Ryan Principal and Abandoned and Unclaimed Property Practice Leader. "Our new Asset Recovery Service will deliver tremendous value and results for our premier portfolio of abandoned and unclaimed property clients."For more information about Ryan's Abandoned and Unclaimed Property services, visit http://www.ryan.com/Abandoned-and-Unclaimed-Property.aspx. About RyanRyan is an award-winning global tax services firm, with the largest indirect and property tax practices in North America and the seventh largest corporate tax practice in the United States.

The well-rested Montreal Impact will look to strengthen their grip on Major League Soccer's Eastern Conference when they head to Columbus to take on the weary Crew.
Sitting first atop the conference table with an 8-2-2 mark and 26 points, Montreal is riding a three-game winning streak in league play as it heads to the heart of Ohio on Saturday for just its second match of the month.
The Impact have a one-point lead over second-place New York and have played four fewer MLS games than the second-place Red Bulls.
They also have three games in hand on Philadelphia and Kansas City. Both have 22 points and are in a three-way tie for third with Houston, which has played two more games than Montreal.
"We really want to pad our lead a little bit," Impact defender Jeb Brovsky said after practice this week. "We want to use those games in hand to get some points and we know that you can start well but it's how you go through the summer and it's how you finish, so each game against an Eastern Conference rival has to be three points."
The Impact have been off since June 1 when they recorded a 2-1 comeback win in Kansas City, three days after winning the Voyageurs Cup in the second leg of the Amway Canadian Championship final in Vancouver.
Brovsky said the two-week break has made the team hungrier, and striker Marco Di Vaio agreed.
"We had just had good results so we wanted to keep playing, but we got a good rest and we did good work this week so we're ready for Saturday," said Di Vaio, whose nine goals in 12 games rank second in the league, one behind MLS leader Jack McInerney of Philadelphia.
Columbus lost 2-1 to Chicago in U.S. Open Cup competition Thursday. Originally scheduled to be played Wednesday night, that game was postponed to the following afternoon because of thunderstorms forecast in the vicinity of Toyota Park in Bridgeview, Ill.
So are the Crew ripe for the taking?
"I think we can't look too much into it," Brovsky said. "Obviously they're going to be ready, regardless. It can only help us that they're playing a day later but it's nothing that we're taking to our advantage too much."
The Impact, who are on their best run since opening the season with four straight wins, will be without centre back Alessandro Nesta and head coach Marco Schallibaum. Both are serving one-game suspensions.
Schallibaum was ejected for arguing a foul against Nesta that led to Kansas City's goal on the ensuing penalty kick late in the first half. Nesta was shown a red card in the second half.
Assistant coach Mauro Biello will assume coaching duties for the second time this season against the Crew.
"These things happen," said Biello, who also coached the team when Schallibaum sat out another suspension on Apr. 14 for the Impact's 1-1 home draw against Columbus. "He has total confidence is us and I think that is what's important. He lets us work, he lets us do our job and for an assistant, that's great.
"Our approach doesn't change. We're going to work the same way as if Marco was on the bench."
Di Vaio gave Montreal the lead 68 minutes into the previous meeting between the teams this season, but Dominic Oduro drew the Crew even four minutes later
"They're going to work for 90-plus minutes and they've got some guys that can just hurt you," Brovsky said. "We saw that we gave Oduro just a space in the last game and he buried a heck of a shot so we don't forget that that was points we dropped because of that goal, so we want to make sure that if we do get a lead that we shut the door pretty quickly."
Columbus has one win it its last six MLS matches. They allowed a season-high three goals in their last league game, a 3-0 loss in Philadelphia on June 5, and are eighth in the East with a 4-5-5 mark and 17 points.
"We know they have a good team with strong offensive abilities that we're going to have to be aware of but we have to rely on our qualities and stay focused for 90 minutes to do what we have to do there," Impact centre back Hassoun Camara said. "Above all we have to rely on what we know how to do and not concentrate on our opponent."
Biello is wary of putting too much stock in the Crew's struggles or their lack of rest.
"Sometimes it can be good for a team that has some rhythm to play consecutive games like that," Biello said. "We have to be ready for anything. They're a team that is going to battle to win at home."
Crew centre back Glauber suffered a knee injury in Thursday's loss, which eliminated the team from U.S. Open Cup competition.
Midfielder Eddie Gaven was lost to a season-ending injury in Columbus' previous game in the tournament. Gaven, who tied for the team lead in goals last season, tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in a 2-1 win over the Dayton Dutch Lions on May 29.Report Typo/Error

We believe that what holds machine learning back in the real world today isn't actually the algorithms. Rather, it's the lack of quality training data and the means to make imperfect algorithms useful.
CrowdFlower makes machine learning work by combining the best of human and machine intelligence in a single platform. We call this human-in-the-loop.
CrowdFlower has always made it easy to collect and label training data. Now we make it easy to connect that training data directly to state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms.
There are always places where algorithms struggle and 80% accurate algorithms are tough to use in the real world. CrowdFlower has filled in these gaps for years. Now, we've made it easy to automatically identify where machine learning is struggling and send them back to CrowdFlower jobs for humans to label.
Most importantly, our AI product makes it easy to take the new labels and continuously retrain algorithms in a process known as active learning. Active learning has been regarded for years as an incredibly powerful approach and one that's essential for making machine learning deployments work in the real world.

Nice room & view, pleasant staff. Breakfast !!! - terrible - went for Breakfast at 9.00 am and everything was dried up- inedible Bacon, plastic fried egg, absolutely awful!!
very friendly staff and most helpful. Big, quiet and clean rom. Would recommend.
a very friendly hotel good food and rooms. i took my grandson to see his dad who works in the isle of man.there is no category in section 4 (were you travelling as).
Friendly and helpful owners and staff. Comfortable room. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast. Loveley view of the sea and bay. Convenient for the town and transport around the island.
We like hotels that are not too noisy and close to amenities, and this Hotel was just that. Rooms very good as we ended up with one bigger than we had booked and sea views were brilliant. Couldnt have asked for a better room. Proprietors lovely people, and we hope to go again next year. Cannot think of anything we did not like, very enjoyable stay.
Friendly, accessable, ideal location for accessing the whole of the Island I would prefer hotels to use Fair Trade products e.g tea and coffee
Excellent location. No off-street parking.
Ashtray in non smoking room, and bad smell of cagarettes.
3 adults and we had one room with three single beds,this saved us money not having to book two rooms and we had plenty of room
Staff were extremely friendly, helpful and personable Mattress was in need of attention
Within walking distance of the shopping centre We had to leave early to catch the ferry and were informed a continental breakfast would be left. This consisted of 1 over ripe banana [between the 2 of us], 2 apples, cereals and orange juice. I expected some sliced meats, yoghurt, bread and butter in addition to the juice and cereals. We did not expect any coffee or anything hot. We were disappointed with this especially as it replaced a paid for cooked breakfast. Being as it must be common practice for people at this hotel to catch the early ferry I was surprised and disappointed with the breakfast.

We all know about Steak and Blowjob day, but apparently not too many people know about Anal Sex day, that falls on April 18th, which funnily enough, is today's date.
Anal sex day is the brain child of comedian Jim Jefferies, who isn't a big fan of Valentines Day but is pretty willing to get on board with a slightly dirtier way to express affection between couples, anal sex day.
In one of his shows, he floated the idea, and claimed:
Wouldn't it be nice to have one day that was for men that didn't cost anything, that everyone could participate in. April 18th, Anal Sex Day.
Everyone's girlfriend or wife has to take it in the ass on April 18th. A month before you'll be walking around the shopping center saying, 'Ohh the decorations are up!'
And it's good because if your bird didn't take it in the ass, you could do the same thing that women do on Valentine's Day when they don't get a gift. You'd go like, 'Oh me mate Jason and his wife took it in the ass twice. Obviously they're more connected than we are.'
Quite if that works remains to be seen, but there's no harm in giving it a try!

Learn what's trending across POPSUGAR. After spending two mind-boggling days at the Winter Fancy Food Show, it's time to dole out our best of awards. Keep reading to learn what chocolates, cheeses, teas, condiments, and more won out over all others. — Additional reporting by Anna Monette Roberts Photos: Anna Monette Roberts Best Salty Snack: Michael Season's Unsalted Boldness Asian Bar-B-Que Potato Chips Unsalted usually means flavorless, but these Michael Season's Unsalted Boldness Asian Bar-B-Que Potato Chips manage to pack plenty of sweet, umami flavor in every thin, crispy bite due to one key, secret ingredient: soy sauce. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Best Salty Snack (Runner-Up): Halfpops Aged White Cheddar Take the crispiness of a chip, the buttery flavor of popcorn, and the cheesiness of Cheetos, and you have Halfpops Aged White Cheddar ($24-$48), a half-popped popcorn coated in a cheddar dust. However, less is more. A small scoop of these dense kernels will fill you up quicker than several handfuls of fluffy, fully popped popcorn. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Halfpops Aged White Cheddar $24 from halfpops.com Buy Now Best Chocolate: Clairesquares Caramelized Oat Bar Imagine combining buttery granola clusters and dark chocolate. That's what Clairesquares Caramelized Oat Bar ($8) does. Now imagine snapping a few squares into your morning yogurt . . . we're not judging. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Clairesquares Caramelized Oat Bar $8 from clairesquares.com Buy Now Best Chocolate (Runner-Up): Vosges Super Dark Matcha Green Tea Vosges Super Dark Matcha Green Tea and Spirulina ($8) packs two superfoods into a 72 percent dark chocolate bar. The bar has a grassy aftertaste (in a good way) from the matcha and spirulina and makes you think you're doing your body good. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Vosges Super Dark Matcha Green Tea and Spirulina $8 from vosgeschocolate.com Buy Now Best Seasoning: Flav{o}ur 21 Umami Rush From the makers of umami paste comes Flavo{u}r 21 Umami Rush, a dry seasoning full of umami-filled Mediterranean ingredients like lemon peels, garlic, balsamic vinegar, anchovies, Porcini mushrooms, and tomatoes. Also notable, the brand came out with a Japanese-inspired Umami Pepper with seaweed and sesame seeds. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Best Sweet Snack: Thinkfruit Cinnamon Apple Slices We nearly wept when our local Whole Foods stopped stocking its chewy cinnamon-sugar-coated dried apple slices. But now we can rest easy, as we've found a similar product to fill its void: Thinkfruit Cinnamon Apple Slices. Photo: Nicole Perry Best Sweet Snack (Runner-Up): Stoneridge Orchards Chili Lime Cherries Taking a cue from Mexican frutas con chile y limón, Stoneridge Orchards Chili Lime Cherries coat extra-juicy dried tart cherries in a zesty combo of chili, lime, and sea salt. Photo: Nicole Perry Best Condiment: Maruso Ghost Soy Maruso Ghost Soy ($8) is unlike any soy sauce we've ever tasted. Not only is it a thicker, glaze-ready texture (thanks to the thickening powers of rice and reduction), but it's also made from extraflavorful black soy beans. The kicker: it's spiked with a solid dose of tongue-tingling ghost chili for lingering heat. Photo: Nicole Perry Maruso Ghost Soy $8 from marusoy.com Buy Now Best Condiment (Runner-Up): Olivelle French Lavender Extra Virgin Olive Oil Olivelle French Lavender Extra Virgin Olive Oil tastes exactly like the essence of lavender. Dip a bit of crusty bread into the oil and feel instantly transported to a lush French field. Try it in a roasted lavender chicken recipe or even in a salad with edible flowers. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Best Salty-Sweet Snack : Angie's Boom Chicka Pop Caramel and Cheddar Popcorn Mix Intending to quench cravings for both things sweet and savory, Angie's Boom Chicka Pop Caramel and Cheddar Popcorn Mix ($4) may sound terrifying, but let us assure you, it's worth investigating. We couldn't help but mine for the thick caramel-coated pieces of popcorn, albeit the cheddar-dusted pieces are quite addictive too. Photos: Anna Monette Roberts Angie's Boom Chicka Pop Caramel and Cheddar Popcorn Mix $4 from angiespopcorn.com Buy Now Best Cheese: LaClare Farms Ziege Zacke Blue This one's a mouthful, so take a deep breath before reading on. LaClare Farms Ziege Zacke Blue ($8 for one-fourth pound) is a cave-aged, cow/goat milk blend made in a dry jack style and inoculated with a blue cheese mold. The cheesemakers say it's a "great introductory blue cheese" for those who sway toward nutty, firm, parmesan-like cheeses rather than funky ones, and (exhale) we can fully back that statement. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts LaClare Farms Ziege Zacke Blue $8 from laclare-farms.myshopify.com Buy Now Best Tea: Kombucha Wonder Drink India The distribution for Kombucha Wonder Drink India is insanely small, but keep your eye out for this darjeeling- and assam-tea-based beverage. Brewed with green cardamom, fresh ginger, Indian rose, and tulsi, it's the best chai kombucha we've tried yet. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Best Spread: Karoun Blue Isle Mediterranean Yogurt Spread Honey Karoun debuted its Blue Isle Mediterranean Yogurt Spreads. Of the line, Honey is the can't-miss flavor. The subtly sweet, full-fat yogurt has a spreadable, cream-cheese-like consistency but with the probiotic benefits of yogurt. Our bagels have found their new favorite schmear. Photo: Susannah Chen Best Dessert: Good Pop Hibiscus Mint Slightly tannic, tangy hibiscus tea is always stocked on our shelf. So when we spotted Good Pop Hibiscus Mint, we made a beeline to the booth to get a taste. Let's just say we know what we'll be stocking in our freezer come the next heat wave. Photo: Nicole Perry Best Dessert (Runner-Up): Hot Cakes Pistachio Paprika Salted Caramel Sauce Salted caramel sauces are everywhere these days, and Hot Cakes Limited-Edition Pistachio Paprika Salted Caramel Sauce takes the cake. The silky texture, roasted butter flavor, crunchy bits of nuts, and a warming paprika finish make this caramel worth traveling to Seattle just to get our hands on a jar. We'd likely eat it straight from a spoon, but for something more civilized, pour it over ice cream or waffles. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Best Cocktail Mixer: Fever-Tree Handpicked Elderflower Tonic Water One sip of the British Fever-Tree Handpicked Elderflower Tonic Water ($24 for eight), and you'll be hooked for life. English elderflower essential oil and Eastern Congo quinine from the fever trees come together to form a bitter sparkling beverage with a sweet, floral finish. Drink it solo for a biting refreshment, or try it in a floral-leaning gin like Hendrick's. Photo: Anna Monette Roberts Fever-Tree Handpicked Elderflower Tonic Water $24 from amazon.com Buy Now Best Cocktail Mixer (Runner-Up): Owl's Brew Pink & Black Lately, tea cocktails have been popping up on the menus of many of our favorite watering holes. To bring the flavor home, we'll be experimenting with Owl's Brew, a line of concentrated teas designed for mixing 2:1 with liquors like tequila, gin, and whiskey. Our favorite: Owl's Brew Pink & Black ($16) a black tea, strawberry, and hibiscus concoction that adds juicy, elegant sweetness to cocktails.

text: [[quoteright:260:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lamb_chops_play_along_9159.jpg]]''Lamb Chop's Play-Along'' is a children's television series that was shown on Creator/{{PBS}} in the United States from September 15, 1991 until August 29, 1997, as well as on Creator/{{YTV}} in Canada. It was created and hosted by puppeteer Shari Lewis, and featured her puppet character Lamb Chop. Appropriately, Lamb Chop was a sheep; other characters were puppets of other farm animals, including Charlie Horse and Hush Puppy. The series was followed by a short-lived spinoff, ''The Series/CharlieHorseMusicPizza''.----!! This series provides examples of:* AmbiguouslyJewish: Lamb Chop has a distinct "Fanny Brice" quality to her voice. (Might be FridgeBrilliance, since lamb is perfectly kosher, and the meat eaten for the Passover ''seder'', or meal.)** There was a Hanukkah special on video that confirms that Shari (who was Jewish in real life) and the puppets all celebrate the holiday.* ComicallySmallDemand: One episode had Lambchop go on strike due to her miniscule salary: ''one cent a month'' ("If I save up for twelve months I can buy a pack of gum!"). She starts out demanding a fortune, but is overjoyed when Shari offers her ''twelve'' cents a month.* ContinuityNod: In the episode in which Lamb Chop wants to become a ballerina, Shari points out that every time Lamb has taken up a hobby in past episodes, she's quickly given it up. (For a change, Lamb Chop sticks with ballet.)* EdutainmentShow* EveryEpisodeEnding: "This is the song that doesn't end...yes it goes on and on my friend. Some people started singing it not knowing what it was, and they'll continue singing it forever just because" (repeat!)* FriendlyTickleTorture: One song is about how, while you can't tickle yourself (which is true), it is very possible for others to tickle you, as is demonstrated.* KnockKnockJoke: Regularly featured as a segment, and honored with a song to boot.--> ''Give me a Knock Knock Joke''--> ''Don't knock a Knock Knock Joke''--> ''They're always dumb''--> ''So tell me how come''--> ''After one I laugh and bubble up''--> ''After four I always double up?''--> ''Don't be an old slowpoke''--> ''Give me a Knock Knock Joke''--> ''Please!''--> *knock knock jokes ensue*--> ''That was a Knock Knock Joke''--> ''I love a Knock Knock Joke!''--> ''They can be awful, it's true''--> ''Still I'm telling you''--> ''I love a Knock Knock Joke''--> ''Yeah!''* LoopedLyrics:-->This is the song that doesn't end,-->yes it goes on and on, my friend.-->Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was,-->and they'll continue singing it forever just because...-->This is the song that doesn't end,-->yes it goes on and on, my friend.-->Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was,-->and they'll continue singing it forever just because...-->This is the song that doesn't end,-->yes it goes on and on, my friend.-->Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was,-->[[EarWorm and they'll continue singing it forever just because...]]* MadeMyselfSad: One vignette has Hush Puppy opening a door in a prop wall in an obvious Shout-Out to Laugh In and reciting a limerick about a lady who was so skinny "that when she essayed, to drink lemonade, she slipped through the straw and fell in." He then laughs his head off at the poem....until he realizes that the character probably drowned, and he reflects: "Hey, that's not funny; that's tragic!"* MiddleChildSyndrome: Hush Puppy bemoaned being a middle child in one segment. of course this requires wrapping your head around the fact that Hush Puppy, Lamb Chop, and Charlie Horse are ''siblings''.* OhCrap: When Zarc announces he'll be staying with the puppets for some time, he's asked how long a Yzarckian's life span is. They're obviously distressed when Zarc tells them: "We don't know. Nobody's died yet."-->'''Charley Horse:''' He might be staying here forever!-->'''Hush Puppy:''' Yeah...or [[UpToEleven even longer]]!** A similar moment happens in a skit where Lamb Chop, Charlie Horse, and Hush Puppy are riding Buster (an anthropomorphized bus) to go on a picnic and Hush Puppy realizes he left the picnic basket in the kitchen at home.* PlaygroundSong: "The Song That Never Ends".* PorkyPigPronunciation: Lamb Chop was tripped up by the phrase "the San Diego Zoo", for some reason, and after two tries said, "You know, the zoo in San Diego."* PunnyName / ThemeNaming: Food, in this case. Lamb Chop is, of course, [[CaptainObvious named after lamb chops]], and Hush Puppy is named after a cornmeal-and-catfish snack made to keep dogs happy and quiet. However, Charlie Horse is the odd man out--a "charley horse" is a slang term for a pulled muscle.* SdrawkcabName: Zarc (a space alien) tells the kids that he's from the planet Yzarc, which is "crazy" backwards. When they ask him why that is so, he says it's because "people on Yzarc have so much fun!" They then ask him why the planet isn't called "funny" backwards, and his answer is that "funny" backwards would be "Ynnuf" ("enough").** Which wasn't the problem; the problem was that there was already a planet with that name.* ShaggyDogStory: During the song "It's Not Fair!", Shari buys a bag of jellybeans for Lamb Chop and Charlie Horse, divides the jellybeans so the two of them get the exact same number, then (at Lamb Chop's request) makes sure they also have the same number of ''red'' jellybeans. Near the end of the song, Lamb Chop and Charlie admit to Shari that they don't even like eating jellybeans.* TotallyRadical: Charlie Horse is regularly dressed in a colorful 1990s "hip-hop" outfit. For that matter, the show's theme song always begins with the main characters [[PissTakeRap essaying a rap]].* WhatTheHellIsThatAccent: [[WordOfGod According to Mallory Lewis]], Shari's daughter who has been similarly trained in ventriloquism and followed in her mother's footsteps, Hush Puppy was "born" in Arkansas. However, his accent seems to be a near-incomprehensible mix of various Southern dialects, including Cajun.* WhatDoYouMeanItsPhlebotinum: In one episode, the alien Zarc needs "zappelmeis"[[hottip:*:Not an official spelling, but it sure sounded like German]] to fuel his rocketship and get back home to Yzarc. As it turns out, "zappelmeis" is apple juice.----
