Calculating the likelihood of winning in an online casino can be a tricky business, which is why most casinos are committed to transparency, and provide a range of statistics to help potential players decide how to gamble. On top of these stats, most casino games have recognised rules with calculable returns. It's just a matter of knowing where, and how, to look.
In short, payout rates are statistics designed to give players an idea of how likely they are to win at a game, or how much they can expect to lose in pursuit of that one big win. Commonly expressed as a percentage, casino payout rate figures indicate how much of the money wagered in a casino (or on a specific game) is returned to players on average. They can be expressed in a number of different ways, all of which are useful for slightly different reasons.
The best online casinos commission monthly reports from independent testing organisations like Gaming Laboratories International (GLI) or eCOGRA, which provide what's known as a percentage payout report.
Frequently accessed via links at the footer of online casino web pages, in help sections or fairness policies, these publicly available test results show the average return to all players who took part in a particular game type during the last month. For example, a recent eCOGRA report for 888 Casino showed that, across the entire site, 96.91% of money wagered in June 2014 was returned to players, and 99.08% of money bet on Baccarat was returned.
As this is an average taken across all players betting on the site during the named period, it means that some players will have won above the average, and others below. Comparing average returns can give a good idea of how rival casinos measure up.
For more specific details about individual games, RTP percentages are a useful indicator. Commonly found for online slots, though occasionally for other games, these operate in a similar way to monthly payout percentages, but are calculated by running simulations through games rather than monitoring actual player betting activity.
Often these can be found in the catalogues of game software suppliers such as NetEntertainment, who have a document available via the company website, in online slot reviews, or in the information pages for the slot at each casino.
Again, many players win above or below these figures. With slots it's important to check how high variance the game is. If massive jackpots pay hundreds of thousands of pounds, a small number of players will win returns in excess of 1,000% or more, meaning lots of players will be returned less than the average.
The term house edge is usually found with casino games like Roulette and Baccarat, and in some games it can be affected by playing an effective strategy, like in Blackjack.
As with RTP percentages, they give an average based on probability, and offer a good indication of which bets to place and when. In instances where strategy can affect the house edge, players are advised to work on their skills in order to maximise returns, so it really does pay to practise.

Costly proposal for Kappara Junction
Some people claiming they represent Kappara and Gzira residents keep on proposing crackpot alternatives to the original flyover proposal at the Kappara junction. The latest version ('Fresh plans for Kappara junction' The Sunday Times, October 28) proposes no flyovers or tunnels, but lengthy detours for drivers going and coming from Kappara and Gżira.
Its proponents claim that it will be visually better, yet the aesthetics of the spaghetti junction when compared to a simple flyover is debatable. But more importantly the whole issue started when residents wanted the high pollution levels to be reduced. So will this new proposal reduce pollution?
Let us make a simple calculation; The traffic that will be using the proposed Zammit Clapp hairpin (coming from the Kappara hill and Tal-Qroqq junction crossing to Gzira or going south) instead of simply turning at the present roundabout, will have to travel uphill, slow down in a queue at the turning (revving engines since it is uphill), and then drive back down to the Kappara junction. This is an extra kilometer. It may not sound like much, but I counted an average of 24 cars/minute crossing the roundabout at 11am (not the rush hour) that would have to use the proposed detour.
At an estimated average urban fuel consumption of 9.9km/l (taken from UK statistics – ours is probably much higher), and 18hrs/day of traffic we would get 24cars x 1/9.9litres x 1080mins = 2,600 extra litres of fuel (€3,900)/day. This conservative figure would create an estimated six tonnes of CO2/day, as well as a load of toxic and noise pollutants that will be dispersed into the vicinity, i.e. homes in Kappara and Gzira as well as the schools of Stella Maris, Sacred Heart and Zammit Clapp Hospital.
At present the traffic going downhill is idling all the way, using only brakes, and little fuel. To rev up the hill and go back down again as proposed is costly, wasteful and dirty. And this is only half of the story; the other proposed detour towards Tal-Qroqq is an even longer 1.5km going uphill than down again. Its the University and Msida which will receive these extra fumes.
The original flyover plan as shown in Mepa's North Harbour local plan would allow a simple straightforward traffic flow and reduce the pollution in the area. I really hope that Transport Malta and Mepa do not consider taking the latest alternative proposal seriously for our sake.

Notre Dame's Manti Te'o making his case for Heisman
It's a time-tested tradition: Defensive players don't win the Heisman Trophy. But is it just possible that Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o has the combination of skills and platform for a breakthrough?
Although two-thirds of the season remain, no frontrunner has emerged for college football's most prestigious award. Meanwhile, Te'o has led the Fighting Irish to a 4-0 record and a No. 11 ranking in the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.
An informal survey of USA TODAY Sports Media Group's Heisman voters suggested most would consider putting Te'o on their ballot. Critics say the most important part of his resume is where he plays, but it's important for any contender. Most often, the Heisman race is among quarterbacks or running backs from big-name schools. Hype plays an important role -- which is why Te'o might have the perfect vehicle.
Notre Dame remains one of college football's most visible brands. Its 13-6 win Saturday against Michigan, one of three marquee matchups in prime time, drew higher ratings than Florida State-Clemson or Oklahoma-Kansas State.
Notre Dame's defense has allowed only 36 points. Against Michigan, the Fighting Irish had five interceptions -- four in four consecutive passes in the first half. Te'o had two, along with 12 tackles. The senior was playing days after the deaths of his grandmother and girlfriend.
"That was for them," he said afterward.
A defensive player has finished in the top 10 of Heisman voting each of the last five seasons. In 2009, Nebraska defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was fourth; last year, LSU defensive back Tyrann Mathieu was fifth. No linebacker has finished higher than sixth.
It probably doesn't hurt Te'o's chances that Notre Dame's quarterback situation remains unsettled, thus removing one potentially formidable Heisman challenger.
"Absolutely, I believe Manti Te'o is a legit Heisman candidate," said Keith Sargeant, who covers Rutgers for New Jersey Press Media. "I've never had any problems voting for defensive players in the past, and what Notre Dame's defense has done this season has been simply stunning."

This is the second in a three-part series on the Dr. Bob Kemp Centre for Hospice Palliative Care and hospice care in Ontario.

By Abigail Cukier

News Staff

There's laughter and chatter coming from the gourmet kitchen – along with the smell of bacon and eggs. A toddler is skipping down the hall past the soft, oversized easy chairs and colourful artwork, sun streaming through the windows.

Make no mistake – the Dr. Bob Kemp Centre for Hospice Palliative Care is brimming with life.

"It's not about death here. It's about living as fully as you can until the last moment. I hear more laughter here than I do anywhere else," said Beth Ellis, executive director of the hospice.

Today is Wednesday, which means it's the day hospice program, which is available for free to anyone living in Hamilton with a life-threatening illness.

The tables are set for lunch with fresh flowers. Some clients are sitting together on the couch discussing the finer points of banana bread, others are finishing their artwork. Frances Claro, who is here for her second time is getting ready for her Reiki session. Normally something she wouldn't do, she found it helped her swollen ankles.

Doreen Stallard is here, as she has been for the past 18 years. Stallard starting volunteering with the hospice in 1994 when it was run out of the Church of the Redeemer basement in Stoney Creek.

"I cared for my husband until he died. That changes you in some way. Two years later, I met Bob Kemp and he talked to me about hospice. I said 'that's for me. It makes my life meaningful," she said.

The day hospice also offers programs like counseling, music therapy, hair salon services and outings.

"It gives them a sense of control over something in their lives and allows them to feel less isolated," said Trudy Cowan, coordinator of the day program and visiting volunteers. "It helps them understand they still have life left. Just because they have a diagnosis, they can still have joy."

Ellis joined the hospice in 1996. She had been a buyer for the Stratford Festival. She went back to school full time to the palliative care program at Seneca College after both her parents died within a year of each other of cancer. Her mom died first and she spent a year looking after her dad.

"We are all going to die. It's a fact of life. You're not going to get out of that one. It's about how we die and how we want our loved ones to die – with dignity and as pain free as possible."

When someone enters the hospice, they create a spiritual care plan with Maureen Russell, the director of spiritual and bereavement care.

"What does your heart need to get you through? How can I help your family? Usually, the first thing they say is 'make sure my family is OK," Russell said.

So Russell works on legacy leaving – writing letters for loved ones or recording the person's life story. One woman wrote 30 cards to be sent out to friends on the day she died.

Russell joined the hospice 11 years ago. She had studied palliative care at Mohawk College and when she heard about Bob Kemp hospice, she said she practically begged to work there.

"It was a calling, honestly, a calling from another place," she said from her office, where on one shelf, sits a stack of colourful quilts.

Every person who stays at the hospice chooses a quilt. It comforts them throughout their stay. When they die, a loved one receives the quilt. This happens during the "leaving ceremony."

While each family can decide exactly what they want to do, Russell says a typical ceremony involves as many people as the family wants – sometimes up to 30. Russell offers reflections and thanks the person for spending their last days at the hospice. A candle is lit at the front door of the hospice and in front of the person's room to show something in the house has changed.

"The whole home stops and we walk out the door with that person," Russell said.

"It's what we used to do. Communities would come together to care for the sick and the dying, feed them, care for them. That's what we do."

What your preschooler knows – and needs to know
Preschoolers are too young to understand the social meaning of race the way adults do. But they do notice physical differences. Don't be surprised when you hear your child comparing his skin color to others' – it's a source of fascination. Most comments preschoolers make about appearance are innocent – they're simply describing what they see.
At this age, although kids clearly identify themselves and others by gender, they don't yet do it by race. They're simply not developmentally able to categorize in this way. A 2- to 4-year-old who notes a difference in color doesn't understand that difference as race. Kids don't understand that their own skin color is permanent until they're about 4 1/ 2, according to Does Anybody Else Look Like Me? author Donna Jackson Nakazawa.
As with other tough topics, it helps to talk to your child early and often about racial diversity. How you respond to his curiosity will lay the groundwork for more sophisticated conversations as he gets older. Embarrassment or silence gives your child the impression that the topic is off-limits or that a bigoted remark is accurate and acceptable to you. Children look to their parents for moral cues, and they'll learn from your actions as well as your words.
How to talk about race with your preschooler
Expose your child to people of all shades. Before your preschooler even utters the words "black" or "white" in reference to skin color, be sure he sees plenty of people of different ethnicities. If you don't live in a racially diverse area, surround him with children's books and artwork featuring people of various races. All of this will help your child understand that a normal environment includes people of different races, says Marguerite Wright, author of I'm Chocolate, You're Vanilla: Raising Healthy Black and Biracial Children.
Talk about differences. Hair, skin, eyes – preschoolers are noticing all these distinctions and beginning to describe them. It's normal. If your child points out that someone has curly hair, you can say, "Some people have curly hair, some people have straight hair – isn't that great?"
Don't overreact to comments on race. If your child comments on someone's color, first find out what he's really saying and why. When one BabyCenter mom's 3-year-old son noted in public, "That's a black man," she momentarily panicked. Then he said, "That's not a blue man," making her realize he was talking about the man's uniform, not his skin. (If your child inadvertently offends an adult, Wright suggests explaining to the person that your child is learning his colors.)
And when your child makes an observation that is clearly about skin color ("Eve's mom is white"), don't freak out. Just say, "That's right. What made you think about that?" Whatever the context, don't read too much into it. "A preschooler hasn't attached emotional or social meaning to skin color yet," says Wright. "It's just what he's seeing."
Case in point: Marcela Gomez's 4-year-old daughter, Paula, described her classmate Diego as the "cute boy with the round cheeks, skin just like mine, but chocolate." As far as little Paula was concerned, there was a difference in skin shades, but it was trivial.
Stick to the facts. When preschoolers ask questions about differences in skin color, keep your answers to the point. ("Addison's skin is brown, and yours is lighter. But you both wear ponytails, don't you?")
Don't overdo it. Though it's good to talk openly about differences, avoid placing too much emphasis on race. Preschoolers are too young to process the complexities of racial issues. Let the topic come up naturally and keep the conversation at your child's level.
Watch your words. Do you or other adults in your child's life tend to refer to people in terms of their race – "that black lady" or "that white man"? If so, your child will pick up on the habit. In the rare instance that a preschooler makes a negative racial comment, it usually reflects something he's heard at home or in school. "To reduce people to their race diminishes them," says Wright. Instead, call people by their names, not their skin color, and teach your child to do likewise.
Aim for "color fairness," not "color blindness." If you don't acknowledge differences, you fail to prepare your child to live in a multiethnic society. The message should be that "your ethnicity is part of who you are," says Wright, "and you treat everybody fairly, equally." We're all different, but no color is better than another.

What's Holden Got?
There's a copy of the DSM-IV sitting on my coffee table. Not the usual, not even at a Shrink Rapper's house, but I'm trying to write the Shrink Rap book and, in theory, I may need to look something up.
So, kid looks at the DSM and informs me, "We read that in English class today." They read the DSM in English class? Hey in the good old days, we read Macbeth in English class. We didn't need psychiatric diagnostic manuals. "Oh, why?" So they're reading Catcher in the Rye and they decided to diagnose Holden Caufield. Interesting. What's he got? Oh, we shrinks don't do that. Until I personally examine Holden, I'm not venturing a guess as to his psychiatric diagnosis. The APA and the medblogging community would have me de-shrunked.
So what did the English class say? (They're kids, they can venture guesses if they like). One thought he had Borderline Personality Disorder, some thought he had Bipolar Disorder, and a few thought he had Schizophrenia.
Funny, I was writing today about how hard it is to diffentiate developmental issues, family complexities, and psychiatric illness in adolescence. Seems like a funny coincidence.
Well, what's Holden got?

I'm originally from Rochester now living in Camillus (10 mins from Syracuse).
This is a discussion on People to hang with in WNY area? within the Tri-State forums, part of the Regional Discussion category; I'm originally from Rochester now living in Camillus (10 mins from Syracuse)....
I'm originally from Rochester now living in Camillus (10 mins from Syracuse).
Yo man, I live in Cicero, near syracuse, I'd be down for getting together.
Today on my way to work, I saw a white 04 or 05 STI in camillus at an intersection on Milton. I also saw the same one (I believe, there aren't many in Camillus) coming back from Syracuse on RT 5 aroud 5:15pm. At Bennets corners (321 and 5 intersection) I saw an 04 or 05 blue WRX. The driver in that car waved to me and then continued down rt 5 until I got off in Camillus. Was this any of you? WRX owners in general all seem to be a nicer breed of people and they all wave to me as if I'm there long time friend just because I drive a subie rex.
Do any of you Central New York guys know any good/reliable tuning joints around the area?
My gf's neighbor works for Bur**** (BMW I think) and has a really nice late 60's mustang that he does most of his own work on. His son has an accord coupe (2004?) and just had lambo doors installed (rice rice baby) at Installations Unlimited near Taft and Rt 11. Apparently they have quite the store and are good at installations. I'm can't vouch for them myself, but that's what he recommeded and has had work done at before. Google "installations unlimited", it should be the first hit.
Hey all, I currently live in Baldwinsville (about 15 minutes outside of Syracuse). Just wanted to say if you are gonna plan a meet, I am definatley in!
As for Tuning places, I would suggest http://www.innovativetuning.com/ It's in Buffalo, have heard good things about them. However if you are from Albany, you would prolly be better off looking at places in NYC or Vermont, I know there are some really good tuners around there, and the distance is close to if not less than driving to Buffalo.
Stock or something close to it.....
hey guys i am from ROC. wana meet with some people and ride or go to a meet or something. anyone let me kno. as for a shop.. innovative in buff.
Hey everyone...New Jersey resident now but an upstate NYer at heart. I'll be back in ROC for a week or so starting Aug. 21. Anyone want to meet up for a cruise? Maybe in the Finger Lakes? Ithaca has some nice twisty roads.
This may motivate me to do all my suspension goodies sometime next week! Give me a hollar before you head out to Rch, I would gladly meet up with you in Geneva or Waterloo and head down 14 or 414 to Ithaca.Originally Posted by JohnnyLevels
Stock or something close to it.....
I'd be down for that. Just drove from Rochester to Syracuse tonight, planning on heading back towards ROC the 18th or so.
I'm coming up to cuse this weekend, staying for a week. I'd like to arrange a meetup. I think syracuse (being smack dab in the middle of the state) would be an ideal meetup area. If I find more people are coming from the south and east we can move it, but we'll start with the Syracuse area. Either PM me or reply to this post with a convenient time for you to help setup a specific location/day/time. Obviously not everyone's going to be able to make it but I want to try and make it so more people can come than not.

Members of Arnold Schwarzenegger's security detail deny claims they helped the ex-governor hide extramarital trysts.
Retired CHP sergeant Mark Hammond, who told TMZ.com he supervised Schwarzenegger's protective detail, said he "can say without a shadow of a doubt ... that at no time did I see Gov. Schwarzenegger say or do anything that could be deemed inappropriate."
Radar Online, citing "multiple department sources," says the state attorney general's office will conduct an inquiry into alleged misuse of taxpayer funds to cover up sexual liaisons.
Hammond tells TMZ he would have been notified of any such activity by his staff, even if it occurred during the governor's non-business hours.
Retired CHP officer Manny Trevino also denies the coverup allegations, telling TMZ he "never witnessed the governor acting in a less than honorable manner."
Schwarzenegger lawyer Marty Singer says the CHP coverup story is completely fabricated.

How Does Service Design Relate To CX And UX?
Posted by Kerry Bodine on October 4, 2013
- 247 Recommendations
- 3 comments
Service design is critical to customer experience (CX). (If you're not sure why, please check out my post from earlier this week called "Service Design: The Most Important Design Discipline You've Never Heard Of," and then come back and continue reading.) But what exactly is the relationship between the service design and CX? And how does the field of user experience (UX) factor into this picture?
User experience primarily focuses on the design and development of digital interactions. Today, this typically means websites, mobile phones, and tablets, but UX can also include touchpoints like kiosks, desktop software, or interactive voice response systems.
Customer experience focuses on the design, implementation, and management of interactions that happen across the entire customer journey. This includes the interactions that take place as customers discover, evaluate, buy, access, use, get support, reengage, and leave.
As the image below shows, I believe that all UX work is a subset of CX work. Customer-facing digital touchpoints are by definition part of the CX, and employee- or partner-facing digital touchpoints either directly or indirectly affect the customer experience in some way.
Service design, like customer experience, focuses on the design and implementation of interactions that happen across the entire customer journey. Service designers also design the behind-the-scenes activities that enable those experiences to be delivered as planned.
So why, as the next image shows, doesn't service design completely overlap with CX? First, there are components of customer experience management (things like measurement and governance) that fall outside the scope of service design. That's not to say that you can't incorporate aspects of measurement and governance into a service design project —but most companies don't typically approach these ongoing management activities today with a service design mindset. Second, there's a significant number of service designers who focus on improving the quality of life for people in need through social innovation — and while noble, this work doesn't fit into today's commonly held definition of CX.
Why doesn't service design completely overlap with UX? There's a good deal of UX work that goes into digital marketing touchpoints — think banner ads, landing pages, and microsites. There's no reason why the worlds of service design and digital marketing couldn't overlap, but that's just not the reality in today's business world.
It's important to understand that we're standing on shifting sands as far as these disciplines go, and the pictures above may not be accurate in a few years. In fact, my vision for the future is that the field of UX will be subsumed by the field of service design as more UX practitioners take a broader view of how digital touchpoints fit into the overall customer journey. I also hope that the overlap between CX and service design will grow as companies learn to integrate service design practices into their ongoing CX management activities.
I'll be speaking more about service design, UX, and CX at Forrester's Forum For Customer Experience Professionals West, October 9th and 10th in Los Angeles. Hope to see you there!
Service designers are
Comment from Jeff Sussna (not verified) on Mon, 10/07/2013 - 15:17
Service designers are learning the importance of integrating front-stage and back-stage activities in the design process. That integration brings things like internal CRM into the service domain, and creates further overlap between SD and CX.
All part of a larger customer-led world
Comment from Rob Millar (not verified) on Wed, 10/09/2013 - 06:14
Great article, but I would argue that the merging of the SD, UX and CX skills as shown in the final diagram is actually a precursor to a larger, and more fundamental change to business that is being driven by the corporate desire to "put the customer at the heart of their business".
We have built out the theory here: http://bit.ly/15ZQyxj - it would be great to get your view.
A matter of mind set
Comment from Jens Otto Lange on Wed, 11/06/2013 - 16:25
Hey, Kerry, great article,
I mainly agree with your thoughts.
In fact there are different schools of service design - the traditional one which grew in UK and Scandinavia in the sphere of social institutions providing a public service, and the newer school of "digital service design", that is rooted in the world of UX, internet and telecommunications.
I noticed as well, that there's a trend towards service design embedding UX as a practice, and a great interest in the agile world of software development to learn more about it. In addition I feel CX is a term mainly used and applied by marketing and business people.
Mind sets of designers and marketing people are different, and this might not change so quickly - marketing people in today's business world are focussing on "target groups" (inside-out-view), whereas designers are serving "user needs" (outside-in-view).

Chef Cheryl Forberg puts flavor first
By Dorene Internicola
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - As the nutritionist for television show "The Biggest Loser," Cheryl Forberg has witnessed up-close the dietary trials, tribulations and missteps of Americans struggling with obesity.
About to begin her 12th season with the hit reality weight-loss show, Forberg said she believes that many attempts to lose weight founder on taste buds so corrupted by over-salted, highly processed foods that healthier alternatives taste bland in comparison.
In her new cookbook, "Flavor First: Cut Calories and Boost Flavor with 75 Delicious, All-Natural Recipes," the James Beard award-winning chef and registered dietitian, focuses on boosting flavor naturally.
Forberg, who lives in Napa Valley, California, spoke to Reuters about going from over-processed to fresh without losing flavor.
Q: How would you describe your book's approach to healthy eating?
A: "I believe if we focus on the quality of calories, the quantity will take care of itself, so I take fresh, wholesome ingredients and create condiments and marinades that are loaded with flavor, but natural flavor, that isn't concentrated in unhealthy fats and calories."
Q: What have you learned from your experience on "The Biggest Loser"?
A: "I've been with the show since the beginning and I see the same things over and over again. A lot of people misunderstand what eating healthy is all about. Having a salad is a great thing, but if you douse it in half a cup of ranch dressing, it can negate the benefits you were trying to accomplish." Continued...

Cruising is the most flexible way to holiday because it offers activities based on your interests, age, hobbies and passions. Activities do vary depending on cruise line, ship and destination.
Fan the flames of passion while falling in love all over again. Whether a couple is travelling to Europe, the Bahamas or Hawaii, a cruise can be one of the most passionate experiences of a lifetime. A cruise combines the romanticism and pleasures of:
That's right, tie the knot and say, "I do" aboard an elegant, luxurious cruise ship.
Cruising is a social experience, and it's nearly impossible not to meet new friends. If you're single, consider booking a singles cruise, which is a cruise specially designed for singles who want to mingle. Single women can enjoy the companionship of gentlemen hosts, who dance, socialize and keep women company throughout the cruise. Choose to relax or pursue adventure when you want. Enjoy the comfort and entertainment of people like you, who are interested in socializing and touring the world. Then disembark with new friendships and lasting memories.
It's no secret that a lot of people enjoy cruising because of the sun and surf. People who want more than a t-shirt and a tan, however, can now stimulate their minds. To enhance the cultural experience, cruisers can shop in village markets, learn about native customs, dine on multicultural cuisine, tour museums and attend festive performances. Today's enrichment cruises offer:
Senior travellers who don't want to be stuck with rowdy college kids or screaming children can take solace in the fact that several cruise lines take great satisfaction in offering a quiet, hassle-free atmosphere.

Cruisers who want more than just a suntan now have greater opportunities to take exotic cruises and enjoy the activities and interests they love. These special voyages let passengers explore art, music, food, nature, sports, technology, personal finance, health, comedy, literature, cinema and more! Samples of cruise lines and their tailored cruises include:
Carnival: Hop onboard Carnival Inspiration for the Elvis cruise, held in November each year. Enjoy the best Elvis tribute artists in the world, in-room Elvis movies, meet & greet sessions, an Elvis fashion show, Elvis Monopoly and trivia tournaments and many other Elvis-themed activities.
Radisson Seven Seas Cruises: Discover the 'Art of French Cooking' by attending workshops and demonstrations given by Le Cordon Bleu chefs.
Orient Lines: Attend lectures and workshops given by experts from the "Antiques Roadshow" in preparation for onshore shopping excursions in Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangkok and Bombay.

A cruise is the ideal family-based vacation because it provides customized entertainment for both the parents and their kids.

That being said, I love to read, write, play guitar, paint, cook/bake, and travel. I spent a year traveling around the United States with my ex. It was definitely an interesting experience. Destroyed our relationship, but hey, you win some, you lose some.
I think the most important thing to know about me is that I'm a very compassionate person, and I care a lot about people, animals, and the world at large. If you don't, and don't consider yourself to be an empathetic, caring person, we will probably have a hard time connecting.
I'm not in college right now, but I'm going back in Spring 2014. I want to study Biology, and I love science in general. I also wish to become fluent in Mandarin and Spanish. I'm very liberal, and I'm always willing to discuss that with people, but if you think gay people are evil and rape victims had it coming, we probably won't mesh well. I've always identified as Atheist/Agnostic, but I enjoy discussing other people's religions with them.
I adore animals of all kinds, and I sort of wish dragons were real. Let me rephrase that. I wish intelligent, talking dragons who wanted to be friends with me and not eat me were real.
I love anything involving water. Kayaking, swimming, tubing, canoeing, you name it, I probably love it.
I love tea, and I have a few beautiful tea sets from various relatives.
I love a lot of things, so it's hard to put them all down here. More than anything, I'm passionate about the things I love. If you aren't passionate about anything in your life, then what is the point of your life? I'm not going to enjoy conversation with people that involves them saying "Yeah, I don't know, I drink, go out with friends, stuff like that, whatever, it doesn't really matter." So if you think that that's the most you can put into a conversation, don't waste your time with me.
Honestly, lately the biggest thing I've been thinking about is the television show Supernatural. I've been contemplating the Epic Love Story of Sam and Dean, and trying to understand why the hell anyone would ship Destiel instead of Wincest. Sam and Dean are soul mates. Dean and Cas are just friends. Sheesh.
I spend a lot of time contemplating life, physics, biology, and all the many different people out there that I've never gotten the chance to meet. I wish there was a way that I could meet every person in the world that I'm compatible with on a friendship level, and I suppose this is a good first step.
I tried opening up my profile to men, but that was a mistake. I think if I meet a man I like, it'll be in real life, not on the Internet.
I love good conversation, so if you're one of the rare people in the world who matches up with me, then I'd love to hear from you. I would prefer a semi-long, well thought-out message, to show that you actually care about getting to know me and have fully read my profile. Include your favorite television show and novel, or I'll just delete your message. Also, correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation is very important to me. Just because we're on the Internet, it doesn't mean that you can't type properly.
I'm not a unicorn, and I'm not interested in being the 'third' to an existing relationship, or having a threesome, or anything involving three people. If I'm going to be with someone, it'll be them and me, no one else. That being said, if you're two bi guys who are interested in a Devil's Three-way, I'd consider it, but only if you two were willing to have sex with each other as well as me.
I deeply dislike instant messaging and text messaging, so if you attempt to initiate either of those methods of communication, don't be offended when I don't respond, please.

Basically, it's the HT-C6930W without the sound system, and despite its 3D talents its price tag is surprisingly affordable.
The first thing you'll notice of course is the player's stunning design, which holds no surprises for fans of Samsung's cutting-edge couture – it's slim, minimal and black as night. Turn on the power and the top panel comes alive with Blu-ray 3D logos, touch-sensitive controls and a backlit window that reveals the disc whirring in the tray.
Taking centre stage on the well-stocked rear panel is an HDMI v1.4 output, which ferries those 1080p 3D pictures to a compatible TV. The inclusion of only one HDMI output might be a problem if you want to enjoy HD audio but your AV receiver lacks HDMI 1.4 sockets, as it won't be able to pass on the 3D signal.
Panasonic has solved this dilemma on its DMP-BDT3000 3D player by offering two HDMI outputs – one for your TV, one for your receiver – but Samsung's answer is to provide a set of 7.1-channel analogue outputs, which send decoded hi-res sound signals to your amp, leaving the HDMI output free for direct connection to your TV. There's on-board decoding for Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio, as well as bitstream output from the HDMI output.
You'll also find component, composite, optical digital audio and analogue stereo outputs on the rear, as well as an Ethernet port that opens up a wealth of web and networking possibilities. However, you needn't rely on a crusty old cable to get online – this state of the art deck comes equipped with a built-in Wi-Fi adapter that supports 802.11b, g and n.
It really makes the most of this network connection too. Not only can you visit BD Live sites and download new extras (stored on 1GB of built-in memory, we hasten to add) but you can also play media stored on networked PCs courtesy of the AllShare feature and access Samsung's Internet@TV portal.
Internet@TV boasts a collection of applications including YouTube, Twitter and Picasa, as well as news, history and TV listings sites. Apps for Facebook, LoveFilm and BBC iPlayer will be added soon. The interface looks great and it's perfect for passing the time on a rainy day, but the slightly cumbersome navigation and text entry might test your patience.

one of the bes players on the market? It's £300 it can be no where near a more expensive player. If you said it was one of the best players below £500 or something i might lend the reveiw more credence.
And PS it's a seriously ugly player
@Brian, whilst aesthetics is a personal decision I have to side with the reviewer and say its a beautiful player. And why does a player have to cost £1000 for it to be considered one of the best players on the market. Above a certain price point is there any credible difference in picture quality when sampling Blu Rays from the main manufactures.
@Brian - what a daft thing to say. Just because it's under £500 does not mean it's not the best
Not sure about the best in class statement, but I agree that it's one of the best looking pieces of kit I've ever seen (bearing in mind that beauty's in the eye of the beholder). I hope this kind of design filters down into Samsung's cheaper, non-3D, Blu-ray players.
Hope they get this ghosting sorted as it sounds like a potentially
great machine.
The thing is you can get a £1000 Blu Ray player and because you have your tv settings slightly out means it is in fact a worse picture than with the £300 player.

After The War Was Won
1pm, Yesterday
We've all seen the footage from the end of the second world war. It looked as if Britain became one huge party with streets full of emotional scenes as soldiers reunited with their loved ones. But that's not the whole story. The demobilisation of 4.5 million troops took more than 18 months, and many of the returnees were damaged physically and mentally, arriving at homes that had completely changed in their absence. This series provides what might be the last chance to hear the stories of the elderly survivors. Phelim O'Neill
Super Tiny Animals
7.30pm, ITV1
Pigs aren't just for breakfast; they're for handbags, too. "Micro-pigs" have recently joined "teacup puppies" and "dinky donkeys" as a must-have accessory. These fairy-sized critters, weighing less than a pound (but costing considerably more), come with a never-ending range of pink tutus, crystal-encrusted bows, and tiny wellington boots. And it makes economic sense: you can feed four Lilliputian lovelies for the price of one normal-sized dog. But the phenomenon has also given rise to unscrupulous backstreet breeding, as Jane Horrocks explains.

Charlie's Angels
8pm, E4
ABC cancelled this reboot after four miserable, misguided episodes from creators who said they didn't want their remake to be "campy". But the crucial thing about camp is that it has brains. Irony. Wit. Fun. And the thing about this "campless" rejig, in which three bad girls do the bidding of some unseen billionaire pervert, is … well, it's just absolute guff, from the mechanically recovered acting to the feeble action scenes and dire script. Tonight, they bust a sex-trafficking ring. Whatever. Life-depleting.
Frozen Planet
9pm, BBC1
Having examined in often brutal close-up the lives (and deaths) of animals in the polar regions, this week we look at how the human animal copes in conditions to which we are ill-conditioned. Despite temperatures of -50C, and it being plunged into darkness for three months of the year, the Arctic plays home to villages, towns, even cities. These vary from communities of locals levering precariously down the sides of cliffs for seabird eggs, to overseas workers drawn by the oil industry, or teams of scientists letting off balloons into space.

Your Money and How They Spend It
9pm, BBC2
The second in this series has Nick Robinson looking at government revenue or, in other words, tax. Last year, £549bn was collected through taxation but the government still ran a deficit; so how can they raise more? Robinson does his best to bring to life a dry but essential subject, and he does a good job of delivering figures that may run counter to popular belief (the top 1% contributes 27% of income tax, for example).
Martin Skegg
Storyville: Bobby Fischer – Genius and Madman
9pm, BBC4
The line that divides genius from madness has rarely been more blurry than in the case of Bobby Fischer. More than three years on from his death – itself inevitably attended by controversy, including a bitter wrangle over his fortune and his exhumation – this documentary attempts the uphill task of making sense of Fischer's singular life story. The archive footage and interviews with those who knew him recall both the breathtaking chess champion who revolutionised the game, and the delusional wretch who spent much of his life all but rendering himself friendless and stateless.

First, glad to see the Buck's Run finally upgraded their website. Sad to see it doesnt work for the most part, leaving shooters in the dark, wanting to buy shot, wads, powder, primers and hulls!
It looks like everything is still the same where a phone call to Kip is the only way to deal with them.

Deer Hunting Forums (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/)
- The Lodge (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/lodge/)
- - Calls and scents on public land? (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/lodge/9706-calls-scents-public-land.html)
Calls and scents on public land?
Ive hunted public land all my life. Ive occasionally called but never used any scents except scent killer. Have any of you ever had great success with calls or scents (preferably scents, ive already had some success with calls.) and if so, what did you use, and how did you use it? I hunt full rifle/shotgun season, which where im at is the end of post-rut, full peak-rut, and post-rut. Im looking to try scents this year to try and get the big 8 point we call "big daddy". i have pictures of him on my trail camera, and his territory is near my stand, i just need to lure him in.
I firmly believe in rut scents for bucks. Doe in heat works, period. I like Golden estrus, code Blue, but others may work as well.
Scents and calls should be your last option, using scents or calls in an area where you don't normally use scents or calls could cause an alarming effect to the deer and set them on a higher alert than they already are.
I would hunt the area the same way as you normally would keeping in mind your 8 pointer could appear any second, slow movements and keep the wind in your face.
That's how I would handle it.
Good Luck
This is one area that BB and I probably see it differently. During the rut I prefer to locate fresh scrape lines close to thick bedding cover or security cover, set up on a natural travel corridoor using doe-in-heat scent wicks. If a passing buck or the scrape maker comes to check his scrapes bingo the scent wick draws him in to see which direction the doe that let her calling card, traveled too. This tactic works last few days of pre-rut and early stages of prime rut. After that the dominate bucks will be tending does and you still might lure in a satelite (spell)? buck. This is my bow hunting tactic for PA. Our group all use doe-in-heat products. I like to use a couple of different ones to simulate different does. This may not be for everyone it just works for me.
I agree with all of the statements above but I'm going to go in a different direction. I'd double it up. Use 2 drag lines and apply doe in heat urine to one and buck urine to another. I'm a Code Blue fanatic but its not the only thing that works. I also like to hang some of each on scent wicks around my stand. If the dominant buck comes in and smells another buck tending a doe in his territory, he's gonna get upset and come investigate. Of course having a lot of does to every buck can lessen the effects here. I've had good success with this on public lands but I try to avoid calling because a lot of people here do it.
Here's my 2 cents- don't over do it. There are guys out there who use TOO much scent or too many calls. You already said that the buck you are hunting is in your area near your stand. My question is, why do you need scents or calls then? Keep monitoring him and if he's still showing up regularly, I'd de-scent myself and go hunt him.
Now, as far as BB and HM are saying- I agree with both of them. BB said that using scents can alarm deer- this is VERY VERY VERY VERY true. Think of it like this, if you walk into your house and you wife has boughten a new air freshener... what are you going to smell as soon as you walk in the door? The difference in odor, that's what.
HM said that using scent wicks or drags can help during pre rut or rut. This is very true as well b/c bucks are up and moving and they are in other "houses" then. Just like you go to your friends house and maybe his house smells like CRAP, that's what you are going to smell when you first walk in. Well, if a buck is in a new area and smells a hot doe, he knows, hey, this is the place I want to be.
Now, I personally, use drags occasionally but once again, I don't over do it. I don't spray too much. The buck bombs are a total waste of money- in my opinion. I've used them stupid things countless times and not ONCE have they ever produced ANYTHING for me. In fact, I have used them on scent wicks in front of trail cams, and the deer leave it alone. I'm guessing, it is a foreign scent to them and they want no part of it. Now, the code blue is good scent and I have had success with it. I especially like how they use ONE deer's urine and not a community urine pool.
Good luck
All bucks are looking for just one thing, use it to your advantage.
to touch on your scent bomb issue tator, ive seen the exact same results. i dumped code blue buck urine out and put a camera on it and 4 bucks actually started making a scrape there. ive done the same thing with the buck bombs and seen nothing at all. i strongly believe that the aerosol messes with the urine. i dont doubt that it smells perfectly fine going in but i know the deer notice a difference from what ive seen. i also hunt in VA, not the midwest. populations are a little lower and bucks are a little shyer.
I guess what we have all indicated that when you hunt carries a lot of weight as to how you would hunt a buck. If I was hunting in early October, I would do my best to locate his travel route, and not use anything to call or scent him in, just set up in a perfect position to take him (near) his bedding area. However, in the pre-rut and early prime rut, doe-in-heat products can tilt the odds in your favor. I carry a set of rattleing horns or a bag of rattleing sticks as well as scent products during the rut. They are all tools and some days they work other days they don't. Why would you not try something different? How else do you learn??? Be comfortable in how you hunt but don't get locked into a set style that's prohibits you from learning new tactics.

I am 36 yo and was diagnosed with breast CA in June of 2002, during my second pregnancy. I have undergone treatment, had my second healthy baby girl, found out I was BRCA1 positive and have already had my second mastectomy and a hysterectomy 3 weeks ago. I'd like to know if any of you have tested your young female children like my 3yo and my 7mo old for the gene. Have their been any consequences to testing? Have you gotten any advice? Do you know of any genetic engineering trials for BRCA1 positive people? Thanks for the input.
Apr 25, 2003 - 10:47 am
I am 54 and was diagnosed with BC in November. I tested positive for BRCA2 gene. My sister and brother were tested after I was tested and they are both positive. My daughter is 26 and pregnant with her second child. I have several young adult nieces also. Most of them plan on increasing screening but not on being tested until they are ready to consider hysterectomies, etc. They are concerned that finding out they are positive when they aren't ready to do anything other than increase screening will just make them anxious. So, we pray for them and my 2 year old granddaughter and the young women are getting mamograms every six months, vaginal sonograms, etc. I don't know of any genetic engineering studies. My personal thought is that you should enjoy your young daughters and help them have a healthy life, not gain too much weight, exercise, etc. and wait for testing. But, you have to do what's right for you. I had a bilateral mastectomy because of the testing and will have the hysterectomy after the chemo is done. My thoughts are with you and your young daughters.
Apr 30, 2003 - 2:15 pm
Hi Carla. Thanks for your reply. In answer to your question about genetic testing, there is one genetics lab called MYRIAD Genetic Laboratories in Utah where testing is done. They have their own website (I'm not sure of the call letters), or they recommend logging onto www.bracanalysis.com or calling 1-800-469-7423 for information.

Hi! This is my very first time writing in a diary--I'm already pretty good at this typing-business! I live with my mom, dad, and brodda in the high desert in California--we just moved up here. I have a huge yard to play in and my brother and I chase other big dogs around that come into our yard! (they just kinda wander around up here...)
My mom and dad want to take us to a dog park--but we can't find any. Do you know where a dog park is in the high desert?
